BeschreibungMan's success in this world of matter, primarily depends upon man's awareness that he has pledged before God that God is his only Lord and the Creator. This book is composed of the teaching of Holy Prophets of God and provides readers guidance for living on this globe. Deliberation upon the teachings of the prophets of God leads us to conclude that all the prophets collectively not only gave us the concepts of good and evil but also proved it by practicing their teaching practically that man can live a purposeful live only after distinguishing between vice and virtue, good and evil. Further, the life of last Holy prophet Mohammad (PBUH)is described in detail in which he made very endeavor in spreading the Elohistic approach or simply the mercy for 23 years. The life up to the 40 years is also a beacon of light for all of us. Reader of this book would certainly feel the sublimity and limitlessness of knowledge contained therein that equally be useful for a common man belonging to any community. The author highly acknowledge publishing of it by VDM Publishing House Ltd., for knowledge sharing internationally.

O Green World
Chapter 3
The journey of the Nonsuch brought us back to this house, which had been my base of operations ever since I'd agreed to participate in the information-gathering on Earth.
Even though things had changed between us without a major resolution, Cabell and Lantas stayed over, and we began to talk openly about where we were going to go now, instead of arguing more about that other issue. There was never any question of Lantas abandoning her explorations to stay with me, or of my abandoning my role in the SDF-3 talks, fruitless though I thought them to be.
And so for a time we would be separated. But with the invention of instantaneous space folds, I would be able to visit Tirol often.
While it had lasted, it was refreshing to be on Tirol without being followed by constant escorts, and to see a world being rebuilt, with time now to appreciate the end results.
There were many pleasant days spent with Lantas in the great libraries of Tiresia, which I had never been near, never even noticed, in my earlier life, content with the information and duties dictated by my masters. She has such a lively mind, a spirit of inquiry, asking profound questions out of nothing in order to see what would happen.
Cabell remained my good friend during those years, and kept his promise to help Lantas find her new knowledge. He still expressed his tacit disapproval, but all of us learned to function with it. Not the healthiest course of action, but any discussion we had on the matter was so repetitive that we had eventually stopped speaking of it.
Naturally I had still missed those lost ones, especially the ones now sitting in my living room. I had never lost faith that the SDF-3 would be found; after witnessing so many strange things in the recent years, to consider them alive was no great leap of logic.
But then the residents of Tirol began to shed their trauma and start to resent the clones living in their midst.
The clones were perceived as reminders of the Masters' earlier decadence, of the corruption that Protoculture had wrought. There were also more universal objections: that the clones were unnatural, should not be granted freedom and protection, or educated beyond their rigidly segmented roles. The last one was described by some to be useless, since they believed the clones did not have the capacity to learn beyond themselves, or that resources should be devoted to helping the Tiresians instead.
Some clones had become violent as well, experiencing the dangers of freedom that one Penny Mirman had once warned me of. It had been painful to witness the renewal of a cycle, but there was nothing to do but turn this feeling into activism.
I did not think it would be pertinent to tell the Sterlings that my relationship with Lantas was hardly unbroken bliss. Such things would come out in time, and the issues were no moreso than would be normal, scarcely what one would term a "tempestuous" relationship.
We had argued about my participation in being involved in the activism for the Tiresian clones, Lantas fearing for me and my reputation. Somehow it had eventually reversed, and I was at one point asking her to come to Earth with me to take up permanent residence there. At that, Lantas had accused me of letting sentiment disable my intelligence, everything I'd stood for. There were times when we'd found each other condescending, and when we'd both wondered why such a reserved and self-conscious courtship had continued.
But other times, enough times to define it, we were quite happy.
Sometimes Lantas and I did not see each other for months on end, me being called to Earth for more speculation and study on the SDF-3 issue. But despite the conflicts that arose on this, we were ultimately aware that fear could not limit us. And every time we met again, we would have new experiences, new knowledge to share with each other and debate about.
On occasion Lantas would also journey to Earth herself, but it was only luck that led to Lantas and I both being on Earth when the SDF-3 had emerged, receiving the signal on the communicator in my house that had been set up for that purpose.
We had both wasted no time in journeying to the proposed landing site. The Nonsuch was still in service, and functioned as a vehicle for Lantas and myself.
The rest, the Sterlings knew. Lantas and I had been bumped, jostled, and squeezed by anyone small enough not to crush us, listening to whoops and cheers and sobs and laughter. I still wasn't inclined for such public displays, but had felt an indescribable joy at the sight of our people alive again, and had gladly accepted the embraces of complete strangers.
Eventually, however, they had begun to settle, and questions had started to be asked, and after some joking responses that we would never believe it, requests for places to rest had been put forth instead.
Pike Base was brought up, and to Max I had said, "I have a residence in its vicinity. I am afraid that there is only one bedroom, and not room for many guests, but anyone who wishes to come is welcome to it."
Greying Rick, with a black-haired boy clinging to his leg, had clapped Max on the back and said, "You'd better field this one."
"Yeah. Y-Yeah, I'll see you, right?"
"Don't forget his books!" said the boy.
Max: "Exedore, this is Roy Hunter. Rick and Lisa's son."
"Hello," was all I said, still unsure how to deal with small children. As an afterthought I added, "And how old are you?"
"Pretty old," was Roy's reply. He looked up at his father. "Daddy, can we go now?"
"Sure." He led Roy off with a gentle hand on his back.
I had looked at Max again. His darkened hair was also showing some grey. I wondered again how long Zentraedi lived. Tiresians seemed to live much longer than Humans, But I felt...in the moment, as Lantas had put it. I wasn't greying, though I had worn my hair in a simple long pageboy rather than my "widow's peak" which had grown out ages ago. Miriya was showing any signs of ageing, though only facially.
"Still have a face that can frighten small children, hey?"
Dana had come running over, with her own "mummy bag". Aurora was looking as faraway as ever, though when we reached the Nonsuch she had asked if she could ride on the roof with her family.
"What's the matter, kid? Didn't your third eye tell you that you could?" Dana chuckled, and Aurora was still looking at me.
Lantas answered for me. "Of course you can. That's what it's there for." She had then walked up to Miriya and took bother of her hands in hers. "Miriya Parino Sterling. It's wonderful to finally meet you."
Miriya. "Uh...thank you. But who...?" She had turned to me for explication, but Lantas had continued.
"You and the other Zentraedi, the Five. Your story was an inspiration to us--the clones, that is. I'm sure you can understand why."
The Sterlings all ended up riding atop the Nonsuch, Aurora asking Lantas and I to first bypass the house, so that she could get a good view of her homeworld. I believe that the rest of her family wanted to take the time as well.
At the house, everyone had been too exhausted to speak further. Lantas and I gave spare bedding to those who needed it, Dana preferring to sleep in the meagre backyard. Miriya and Max took the floor, leaving the small old couch for their younger child.
It was the next day after that Max had asked to know more about where I was, which had led to our evening of conversation. It was possible that they had all asked themselves the question of where Lantas was being accommodated, but had been too tired to truly care.
The incredible story of the SDF-3 had emerged gradually, to myself in private talks with the Sterlings, to the rest of the world when the rested crewmembers began to speak to the media. Many commentators had scoffed at the unbelievable accounts, and of those, some had even begun to prod the children to display of psychic phenomena, sarcastically then earnestly.
The Hunters and the Grants and several others had angrily protested--though likely the end of that particular mess had come when the Zentraedi parents had made their opinion on the matter known.
And it was during this period of reunion and renewal that Kazianna Hesh requested a meeting. She had asked for five: myself, Cabell (now visiting from Tirol), Aurora, Miriya, and Dana. Lantas had also attended at my request.
I was thankful for this more intimate meeting, curious to meet Kazianna again, to talk with her directly. Though it was not strictly rational, I had begun to feel that our connections to Breetai were decent pretext for forming a friendship on our own, and had kept that desire for the years since I'd seen her last.
The remaining Zentraedi (how cold I briefly felt when I though of that) were temporary housed in one of Pike Base's empty hangars. Some makeshift facilities had been set up to make conferencing and living easier, but it was not a place they would have chosen to live in.
Kazianna was already outside when we walked up. Instead of anything ceremonial, she was wearing an off-duty female Zentraedi jumpsuit, blue with a green trim, where the male ones had been purple with yellow.
When we had stopped, Kazianna went to one knee and bowed her head. "Welcome, all of you. Especially you, Cabell."
"There's no need to bow, my dear; we're all friends here."
She raised her head, looking directly at Cabell. Kazianna sighed, a deep basso sound. "I am sorry. I would rather have these protocols out of the way, but you are..."
"Yes, yes, yes," Cabell replied, amicably. "I understand. And I think today I'd rather honour your impatience."
Kazianna stood to her full height, and I tilted my head back to see her return Cabell's smile, her grey-tinged skin reddening. "I would like that."
She led us into the bunker, where sheets of metal had been set up to create the illusion of walls and privacy, though it was also at the time deserted.
There was a large table made from discarded industrial materials with a chair to match. Kazianna lifted us up onto it one by one, apologizing for the crudeness of the setting. After we were settled in our own Micronian-sized chairs, She began without preamble. "This performance will be repeated for the rest of the military personnel, but I wanted you all to be the first to know what we have decided."
From across the past came a feeling of annoyance. I had been left out of conferring on the Zentraedi fate? But it faded as quickly as it had come.
She went on. "Some time from now, not soon, but eventually, the Zentraedi will be leaving Earth to set up permanent residence on Fantoma.
"Despite everything that my people put the Humans through, it has been...a good experience for us to gain culture through our contact with them. But to be a true people, we must be given a chance to develop on our own, using what the Humans have taught us."
"And what are your plans?" I asked, before anyone else could speak.
Kazianna looked at something I could not see, as if the walls were transparent and she was surveying the landscape. "It will be the same as our location: we will start with what we remember, our lives as miners."
I asked her, "Will you only be miners?"
She smiled. "That will be the start. But Breetai told me much about you, Lord Exedore. About the values you found in the 'intellectual' culture of Earth. If there are those among us who desire something different, we will do the best to accommodate them, and as the generations pass, we will try to reach out to other occupations. The harsh conditions of our world will not prove a barrier."
But I had read much on the invisible bonds which worked to tie down those whose ideas disagreed with the norms of a culture. Rare was it that the dominant were directly malicious towards the maverick. "I believe you, Kazianna Hesh. But you must be aware that sometimes a people cannot even know that they are preserving the status quo at the expense of growth. Do not fear what you might be becoming."
She nodded solemnly. "We will also remain in contact with the Tiresians. But that planet is not ours, even if we might share their blood. It was little more than a laboratory for us.
"We will be making our announcement to the military personnel afterwards, but I had wanted a personal meeting with the people most closely related to us."
From the accounts, I had expected to see a theatrical eeriness about the Zentraedi children, along with illuminated corneas. But from what I could see, their eyes had been "turned off", and they were simply playing with the makeshift toys that had been made for them out of smaller objects, or with the rocks and dirt around the area.
Kazianna informed us that the adults standing around them were a mix of their biological parents and others. Most of the Zentraedi had eagerly volunteered to protect and help raise them, even if they were not their own offspring. Kazianna admitted that, in the process, they would be helping make up for each others' inexperience.
She called Drannin over from the small group, and he dropped his patchwork ball and came running eagerly.
I studied him, hopefully without looking like I was.
I did not expect to find Breetai reborn in Drannin, for I do not believe in the talk of legacies, of offspring as a replacement for a parent; each child conceived was their own individual self.
Drannin had the features of Breetai and Kazianna arranged in inextricable ways, softened by a youth neither of them had had. He had his mother's purple hair, but several shades lighter. His skin was neither pale grey nor pale aquamarine, but what Micronians might have called swarthy; possibly this proved that certain Zentraedi skin tones were mere cloning deformities and would revert to natural ones upon biological reproduction.
Drannin and the rest of the children were wearing old Zentraedi boots and uniforms, cut down and rearranged to fit their smaller bodies, irrespective of colour matching.
He pointed at me. "That's Father's friend?"
"Yes, Drannin," I replied, feeling strangely touched. "My name is Exedore Formo."
One of the other children, a very pale girl with teal hair, had come over to investigate and said, "Why are you so small?"
I wondered if they were just feigning childish ignorance, trying to appear normal. But I indulged them. "Because I am Micronized. Have your caretakers ever told you of that?"
"Not yet," replied Drannin, looking up at his mother as if he expected a secret to be told.
Kazianna explained it tersely, and the bare explanation seemed to satisfy him, though Drannin didn't walk away when the girl did.
"I'm sorry about that," Kazianna said. "But it didn't seem relevant to the children. There wasn't any question what we'd raise them as, and even if someone could get the chamber to work again, we'd inform them of the option when they were old enough to chose it."
"I take no offence at it. In some fashion, I chose my circumstances."
"And so did I," Miriya added.
In the early days of the Zentraedi presence on Earth, some military figures had tried to peddle Micronization to us as a way of restoring "what nature intended". I'd urged them to instead appeal to the more real problem of the potential drain on resources, pointing out that since the Zentraedi knew ourselves only as giants, that was what would seem the most "natural" to us, regardless of the imagined alternatives. What we had experienced directly easily overpowered the abstract.
Cabell and I asked Kazianna and the other caretakers about their plans for Zentraedi education. In their time in newspace, the children had been taught how to write and read, with the Humans to show their parents how to start doing that.
Unsurprisingly all the Zentraedi were looking a bit starstruck at being so close to Cabell, but some where also looking at Miriya in a similar fashion...and me? Of course I knew why, but that was still very strange.
Eventually Lantas and I had to reveal our relationship to others that we knew. Still, it was appropriate that I could first inform the woman who I had developed such a bond with. As opposite as Miriya and I were in beauty, stature, and social inclination, we were both Zentraedi reborn, and that would always ensure a connection, perhaps part of the reason that I had never left the SDF-3 for dead.
Lisa Hayes had also been approached about a memoir, and I had asked her to keep my relationship with Lantas a secret. After the Tiresians had had an entirely different sort of moral panic about our relationship, I wasn't eager to have any more of a fuss made over this, and neither was Lantas. And because she did not have the urge for any kind of ceremonial joining, hopefully that would make things relatively quiet for many more years.
I met with Kazianna several more times, sitting on tabletop chairs again. Sometimes Lantas was with me, other times not. On that first informal meeting, Lantas introduced herself to Kazianna, and explained briefly who she was.
"Congratulations to both of you," Kazianna had said, offering her gloved finger for Lantas to shake, Humanlike.
After informing Kazianna of the difficulties her people were having on Tirol, Lantas had added, "Having the Zentraedi as neighbouring citizens is only going to make things worse,"
Kazianna had only nodded in response. I knew that we would all meet it with the same strength as before.
But it was not all so sombre. Kazianna, Lantas, and I spent much of our time talking about Breetai, whom Lantas already knew much about. Both Breetai and Kazianna had known that they would eventually produce a child, and had coincidentally agreed with me: that Drannin was to be his own man, not at all obligated to be like Breetai or herself.
"Inasmuch as I can have an opinion on such things, I believe that a true legacy rests in memory, not in genes," was what I had said to Kazianna, and she had agreed.
It had slowly come to light that Kazianna would have been very much at home with the Friendly Five, as she had, almost from her first briefings about Micronian culture, desired not only to embrace the new life, but to seize it. If culture had been introduced the female fleet first, Kazianna had joked, she would have been one of the first to defect.
But in those early years Kazianna had been inclined to a cheerful solitude, content to explore on her own, though now she regretted never coming to know me personally. Kazianna had also been a ferocious participant in the strikes against the Malcontents, a member of the twenty-first.
All this was a heartening experience, but after almost a year of modifying, repairing and planning, the Valivarre left Earth with all the remaining Zentraedi aboard but for Miriya and I. Many turned out to watch the launch, including everyone one would expect. I could hear Miriya trying to fight back tears, as Lantas put her arms around me. But though I felt a trifle melancholy, I was still confident in the rightness of my choice.

Can't sleep
with go-karts running
in my head.

You just wait

You may see

Who's next?
This morning I was listening to The Who and their 1971 album "Who's Next?". This album captured something of that time. What was it like then and how was it any different than now?
The album cover speaks of the youth's obstinance then. It was a time of confusion. It was a time of optimism though. Personalities had come and gone but nothing or no one seemed in want for much. We had arrived with our ideals, our education, our minimal but refreshing means to do just about anything. We hadn't met any diversity that we could not either accept or overcome in some fashion. Our new found courage was grounded in being naively youthful. Energy and passion wore out the obstacles. We resisted little as there was little to resist. Our suffering had not arrived and the world was still bound in its happenings, sharpness had not started. Our idealism would not be prevailed upon. The world and its events were belonged by no one and it was still 'us'. 'Me' and it selfishness had not been born. 'Now' is not of that age.
'Tell us what democracy looks like!' Protesters march to Parliament Hill
This is what it is about. Why do political parties not understand this is a prime motive for citizens to be vocal because we live in a democracy.
Douglas Coupland
Went to the Vancouver Art Gallery yesterday to see the Coupland exhibit. It was excellent! I had no idea the extent of the creativity of this person. There is a lot to see and it is definitely a show you can attend more than once.
The intrigue about his work is substantial. You can see a unique perspective of the world we now live in. You can see elements of being a Vancouverite and a Canadian. There is boldness yet intricacy in the presentations. It is exciting to dismantle and then reconstruct, in a different fashion, one's view of something. So much of his art does this and it is brilliant.
One very neat thing is the invitation to take pictures with the hashtag #couplandvan.
Half way through a 3 week holiday and for the first time in a long time I feel somewhat rested.
We seem to get into an everyday work cycle that is not very easy to shed. It takes a lot of concentrated effort to stay away from the business aspect of your life with the immediacy of smartphones and the ubiquitous internet. It seems we have woven our personal and business lives in such a fashion it is hard to take them apart. A staycation is more like part time work.
The next week will be how well my mind can reset. And how hot and sunny it will be!
Last day at CUWaterCooler Nashville
The CUWaterCooler is just about over. There are two more presentations before it will be the end of this years Symposium. It has been as different as all the others before it.
We missed a few of the editors like Ed Brett from Westminster Credit Union. The venue is probably the best ever and those returning knew the neighbourhood so getting around was easier. We reunited with old friends and made some new ones. We talked about the same old things and some new debates began. Matt Monge's presentation about 'Servant Leadership' was extremely valuable and really challenged anyone who was a CEO. Rob Oxoby's "Behavoir, Savings and Borrowing of the Lifecycle: Insights from Behavioural Economics' gave us some remarkable experience in Games Theory. Every presentation was valuable and relevant to anyone in a credit union. And as always there was an entertainment factor at times. When I get home I need to find that old Monopoly game.
One can't really put a tag or singular definiton about CUWaterCooler. It really needs to be experienced. It is fun and it makes you think is some new fashion. Thanks to everyone who came, to those who contributed, to Tim and Matt who work so hard to make it what it is, to Ron who always gives us some incredible insight and to Nashville for being a wonderful host.
Funny, once you drink from this watercooler you always want to come back.
Expectations for the CUWaterCooler
There are only a few days left until leaving for Nashville to attend the CUWaterCooler event. It has been a few years that this event has been in existence and has evolved from the Forum Solutions Symposium in Fishers, Indiana that goes back to at least 2008. (somebody out there will correct me on this).
I realize some individuals when reading this will say that most of us are just regurgitating the same old stuff and live in our own credit union echo chamber. That may appear to be so. Maybe it is because most of us have travelled the road of attending too many value-less conferences. We have paid large amounts of money only to hear experts tell us what we either already know or what we have dismissed as not extremely vital.
One of the key understandings of co-hosts and editors is to have a symposium that brings value in the simplest of terms to everyone who attends. Most presentations are by people who have a high degree of passion for what they will speak about. They are genuine in what they present and are more than willing to be challenged to further the dialogue. When everyone is willing to discuss the subject everyone learns.
I am always amazed by the people who attend for the first time. They really haven't experienced those types of discussions or that level of networking. They usually come away excited and anxious about what to do when they get home. That makes this event different. The ideas you hear about get developed to a greater degree by the communication you have with everyone there. You begin to formulate what that will mean where you work. That is the real magic of the CUWaterCooler. Two days of being part of a group of people who want to do a better job, are willing to change and have some great ideas on how to accomplish these new found challenges — who wouldn't want be to part of that?
Here is some advice. Come with no expectations except to enjoy the company, have intriguing discussions and make some new friends. What you leave with will be a gentle prodding to try something different. For some that will be immediate, for others a much longer journey. The fact is that something in the way you perceive credit unions will change, if only just a little. And that is what makes it all worth it.

Study objectives: We previously reported that patients with emphysema show an increase in diaphragmatic neuromechanical coupling at 3 months after lung volume reduction surgery. Diaphragmatic neuromechanical coupling was quantified as the quotient of tidal volume (normalized to total lung capacity) to tidal change in transdiaphragmatic pressure (normalized to maximal transdiaphragmatic pressure). As such, neuromechanical coupling estimates the fraction of diaphragmatic capacity used to generate tidal breathing. The present investigation was conducted to determine whether benefit is maintained at 2 years.
Subjects: Fifteen patients with severe COPD, 8 of whom completed the 2-year study.
Methods: Lung volumes, exercise capacity (6-min walking distance), diaphragmatic function (maximal transdiaphragmatic pressure and twitch transdiaphragmatic pressure elicited by phrenic nerve stimulation), and diaphragmatic neuromechanical coupling were recorded before surgery, and at 3 months and 2 years after surgery.
Results: Two years after surgery, lung volumes deteriorated to preoperative values, but patients showed persistent improvements in 6-min walking distance (p < 0.05). Three months after surgery, maximal transdiaphragmatic pressure (p < 0.05), twitch transdiaphragmatic pressure (p < 0.01), and diaphragmatic neuromechanical coupling (p < 0.01) had increased over preoperative values. The improvements in neuromechanical coupling resulted from improvements in diaphragmatic strength and, to a lesser extent, from a decrease in transdiaphragmatic pressure required to maintain tidal breathing. The change in respiratory muscle function at 2 years varied among patients: diaphragmatic contractility was > 10% of preoperative value in half of the patients who concluded our study, and neuromechanical coupling was > 10% of preoperative value in three fourths of the patients who concluded our study. Patients who maintained their gains in neuromechanical coupling also maintained their gains in 6-min walking distance.
Conclusion: Patients undergoing lung volume reduction surgery can maintain early gains in neuromechanical coupling and exercise capacity 2 years later.

WHO seeks new mechanism for crisis vaccine supplies at low cost
By Kate Kelland, Health and Science Correspondent
LONDON Oct 19 (Reuters) - The World Health Organization, drugmakers and humanitarian groups are hammering out details of a new vaccine supply system aimed at getting vital shots to vulnerable people in crises such as wars or natural disasters.
The mechanism, which so far has British drugmaker GlaxoSmithKline signed up to provide its pneumonia vaccine at the lowest possible price, will ask other major pharmaceutical firms including Pfizer and Merck to make similar cut-price agreements for emergencies only.
"The idea is that this will set a model in place for other manufacturers to put their vaccines on the table," said Greg Elder, a medical coordinator with the international charity Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) which joined talks on the issue at the WHO's Geneva headquarters last week.
A spokesman for the WHO said the humanitarian vaccine mechanism - which would only be used in crisis situations - could mean reaching millions of vulnerable people with protective shots against potential killers such as measles, yellow fever and pneumonia.
For now, GSK has pledged to make its PCV-10 vaccine for pneumococcal infection available at its lowest possible price, he said, and other manufacturers are considering which of their shots might also be included.
Signing up would mean drugmakers agreeing to supply the shots at a price equivalent to that paid by the United Nations children's fund UNICEF for vaccines supplied under the GAVI Vaccines Alliance to low and middle-income countries who can't afford to pay full price.
Yet unlike GAVI, the cheaper emergency vaccines would be accessible only to non-governmental organisations such as MSF and other charities and humanitarian groups - not to health ministries or national authorities.
This, said MSF's Elder, will ensure drugmakers are not exposed to having to supply large quantities of vaccines at rock-bottom prices that could dent their profits. Continued...

moving on
My world's confined, grown smaller, and my mind plays in the reflected light on four white walls. Strange what I remember, games when I was a child when I watched headlights travel over my bedroom ceiling when I was supposed to be asleep. I used to imagine one day it wouldn't be a car, but a spaceship that would come by. Used to scare myself silly imagining an alien just beyond the window, a monster come to eat me up, or worse.
What I can't see might be anything. Hours I have to myself and I sink into these thoughts. They creep up on me. Has the world changed? I can see a square of garden through my window, a patch of lawn and a branch of the laurel. What's round the corner? What hides out of sight? How do I know what's around them is the same as I remember: The rest erased but for this part I see. Then I'm taken out, or moved into a new position and it's a relief each time to know. Just to know things are the same.
I'm fed and changed, moved and bathed. Maggie in the day and Will at night. They're both efficient and good at what they do, but I wish those skills weren't needed. Wish no one needed this kind of help. Especially me.
No, don't want to go there. Don't want their pity. Don't want my own. Self-pity; now there's a thing you can wallow in for years. Don't you feel bad? Don't you feel glad this isn't you?
I wish my wife would just go. I wish she'd find someone else and take the boys. Having her around is like a kick in the teeth, makes me remember and wish for what we had before and that's just no damn good. She needs a life.
I think that and then the next moment I'm in a flat panic, sweating, thinking she'll come in and say she's leaving. I want her to go, but I couldn't bear it if she did. I don't know what I want.
Late at night I hear people talking. The thoughts I've given names; they've become separate entities. They tell me what I want to know. Sometimes they tell me what I don't want to know. I try to clutch on to my sanity but it's a slippery fish. I drown out the voices with the tv.
Moving on. Moving. She should move on. Lights drift over my ceiling. Aliens come to make me well again. I dream I can walk, am making coffee in the kitchen. My wife comes in and brushes my neck with her lips, cold as ice-cubes they ran over my tongue in the hospital. Makes me shiver and I wake up, and wish.
I can feel tears in my eyes. At least I can feel those. It's almost pleasurable; the knowledge there's still something I can do. tv again and I devour everything on stem-cell research. I need some of those little guys, alien cells in my body fixing me. How I measure my time.
When I was a kid I saw a program about an iron lung, and didn't understand it. A boy slept all day and at night played alone in a garden of statues, each one staring down at him with their stone eyes blank and unfriendly. That wasn't what it was about, but that's what I saw. Lights outside cast the reflection of that laurel branch on my ceiling and the shadows of leaves weave and sway. My own midnight garden, my own unopened world to explore.

|Tomcat Native Library Breaks SSL
|Mon, 28 May 2007 14:18:12 GMT
I am working with Windows XP Tomcat 5.5.23 http://tomcat.heanet.ie/native/1.1.10/binaries/win32/ I followed the openssl instructions at http://www.galatea.com/flashguides/tomcat-ssl-5-unix to setup my ssl. When I start tomcat and try to connect to localhost:8443 the browser sits there loading for a long time. After a couple minutes of waiting the browser stops and says The connection was interrupted The connection to 127.0.0.1:8443 was interrupted while the page was loading I finally removed the tcnative-1.dll from my windows/system32 directory and restarted tomcat. The ssl works properly now. I probably spent a couple days debugging this problem. Anyone know why the native library stops ssl from working? Also I did adjust the debug="0" to debug="5" but didn't receive any more detailed output. My conf/server.xml looks like: <Connector port="8443" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192" maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75" enableLookups="false" disableUploadTimeout="true" acceptCount="100" scheme="https" secure="true" clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS" keystoreType="PKCS12" keystoreFile="mycert.p12" keystorePass="changeit"/> I tried changing my ssl connector xml to ajp syntax like: <Connector port="8443" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192" maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75" enableLookups="false" disableUploadTimeout="true" acceptCount="100" scheme="https" secure="true" SSLEngine="on" SSLCertificateFile="${catalina.base}/conf/localhost.crt" SSLCertificateKeyFile="${catalina.base}/conf/localhost.key" /> but I renamed my mycert.pem to localhost.crt and mykey.pem to localhost.key - the files created from the www.galatea.com instructions - but it resulted in the same browser loading till the problem loading page message.

Topic: Trucking Accidents
Spinal cord injuries are some
of the most devastating and debilitating results of a car wreck or truck
accident – in part because the scope of problems is great – and the expected
hope for recovery may be minimal depending on the severity of the injury. Often
surgery may be necessary and even it goes great the recovery can be very
approximately 44% of all new spinal cord injuries in the United States result
from motor vehicle accidents. In children this figure goes up. Recent data
shows that nearly 70% of spinal cord injuries in children up to age 19 can be
attributed to motor vehicle accidents. The highest risk portion of this
population is young men.
In a car or truck crash there are a number of failures that can occur within the vehicle
itself – opening up greater possibilities for spinal cord injuries –
particularly in the case of a rollover. These include such things as the roof collapsing
in on the driver and/or passenger, the back seat collapsing in on passengers,
and even the failure of a seat belt to properly hold the passenger in place. Many
times an attorney will investigate the vehicle itself from a
design perspective.
Some of the more common
types of spinal cord injury include bulging or herniated discs and partial or
full paralysis. Back injury occur when one of the spinal cord bones shifts
out of its normal position. Symptoms are varied and include such things as back
and neck pain and even some tingling in the limbs. A herniated disc is a much
more serious medical condition and may also be called a ruptured or slipped
disc. This often requires an operation to correct.
Paraplegia and
quadriplegia are the medical terms for paralysis. Both conditions are a loss of
motor function, both will require substantial rehabilitative services and the
cost of which can be substantial– and often a person never returns to full

South Whitehall, residents agree: No need for speed
There are 24 comments on the The Morning Call story from Jul 17, 2009, titled South Whitehall, residents agree: No need for speed. In it, The Morning Call reports that:South Whitehall leaders are expected to lower speed limits on several streets and consider other steps to slow motorists in a large subdivision after residents there complained that lead-footed drivers are making their neighborhood feel like a ''drag strip.'' More than a dozen residents from the Cedar Creek Farms development attended Wednesday's ...

Increasing the amount of stop signs are not going to solve this problem. I live in this development and I see people go right thru the stop signs on a daily basis. Yes I agree the twsp needs to do something, maybe speed bumps. My son was almost hit by an SUV driven by someone who lives in this development who did not stop at the stop sign on Schaller and Jervin.
United States
#2 Jul 17, 2009
Speed bumps are the answer.
#3 Jul 17, 2009
Speed HUMPS as there called in Allentown followed by a Speed dip, sank in the roadway is a great way to slow cars and or trucks down
#4 Jul 17, 2009
The people in CCF drive like maniacs. They rarely ever stop at the stop sign befor pulling out from Dylan Drive onto Parkway Road.
#7 Jul 17, 2009
Exactly how is it that you know who the speeders are? I have been walking the whole perimeter of our CCF neighborhood, jogging, and going to the bus stops every morning for 5 years. Yes, some of the speeders live in the neighborhood, and we've followed them to know where they live and they make up a small percentage of our community, but at LEAST 60% come down the hill and proceed out of the neighborhood to another community. It is being used as a thoroughfare. We watch them. We take note of their car make and plates. We are doing anything and everything we can so that none of our children gets killed. We have had several near misses that could have been fatal.
Since: Mar 07
#8 Jul 17, 2009
The bumps would make snow removal difficult, but a series of "dips" would work just fine.
#9 Jul 17, 2009
By the way, in case anyone is wondering, the person "Ed Rendell" is not our Governor speaking on this comment thread...I have contacted their office and they assure me it is not him making comments here. They were grateful for the alert.
#10 Jul 17, 2009
You're kidding, right? You didn't actually call the Gov. office?
#11 Jul 17, 2009
Yes we have spoken to the twsp police and they have stepped up however they cant be there 24/7. I know eventully they will see what is going on, I just hope its not at the expense of our kids.
#12 Jul 17, 2009
Its both, people who live in CCF and in Stonehenge and its people who are using it as a cut thru or people who are just visiting. You cant blame non residents. As I said earlier, I am a resident and I see other residents doing the same thing. I have watched them blow off stop signes and pull right into their driveways. I would love to say something to these individuals however the last time I voiced my concern to a neighor for allwoing their dog to relieve himself on my lawn I was told to F off and a huge fight evolved.
#13 Jul 17, 2009
I used to live in Parkland and I agree that speed is a problem in that development. However, I've got bad news for you regarding speed humps - they don't slow traffic as much as you're probably hoping they will.
Here in Quakertown along the full length of borough-owned Mill Street end to end we have a set of speed humps (not bumps, three stop signs, a double set of railroad tracks, AND a traffic light. Guess what? People just increase their speed between these points in some kind of attempt to make up the lost time. Homeowners living along any stretch of the road where the speed humps aren't placed will get even faster traffic like what I deal with.
Good luck. I hope it works better for you if SWT installs them there than it has here.
#14 Jul 17, 2009
Not surprised that the same person you had a a problem with over his dog, also drives like an inconsiderate slob. It's the modern mentality and attitude -'Hooray for me, to heck with you'. Is he from NJ or NY, too ...
The cops ought to sit there and ticket the ones who blow through the stop signs.
Otherwise, without radar - how are they going to prove 'speeding' well enough to have it stand up in court - Good luck with that.
#15 Jul 17, 2009
It also keeps the low riders out. They will rip the coffee can off the exhaust pipe.
#16 Jul 17, 2009
I learned from a site called Evo Street Racers ( Http://www.EvoStreetRacers.com ) that in Canada should a person go a certain speed beyond the speed limit it can be considered street racing in addition to the penalty for speeding. Maybe we should have a law like Canada?
United States
#17 Jul 17, 2009
Speed bumps ARE the answer.
Snow plow drivers can slow down (like the speeders)when they encounter one.
#18 Jul 17, 2009
Speed limits are such a waste.
We have 25MPH limits in our South Whitehall development, and people still do 50+MPH (including the two police officers who live here).
Try doing 35MPH, and even the little old lady driving her AMC Pacer behind you, will give you the finger.
#19 Jul 17, 2009
Too bad, that's illegal.
A town can't install stop signs just to slow traffic down.
#20 Jul 17, 2009
I live in s.Whitehall on Whitehall ave near the corner of albright and cars speed up and down this road all the time. There are a lot of kids that ride their bikes and play around here. We need either lower speed limits , more stop signs or something. I think an electric speed strip like they put across from Kratzer elementary school may help slow the idiots down.
#21 Jul 17, 2009
My family has lived on Dylan Dr. for 22 years and I would not call this a problem. Calling it a "speed way" is a bit out there. I was once going 30MPH one morning and a woman started yelling at me to slow down, waving her arms and everything. If i was going 50, of course but come on...30, get a life. If you're worried about your kids, supervise and restrain them, don't leave me unattended. My children always knew never to play in streets. Put a stop sign in if you're that upset about this problem and take if form there. I think the article was a bit much...
Since: Mar 07
#22 Jul 18, 2009
A speed limit is only a number posted on a sign. That doesn't mean people are actually gonna follow it.

I said i might re-do it, and i did. I am currently shocked at my lack of laziness.
Mightier than the Sword (Revised)
"What on earth are you doing, Mudblood?"
Cue Hermione's twitching eyebrow.
"Well, let's see", she answers, "What does it look like I'm doing, you slimy little ferret? I only have a quill and parchment!" Hermione feigns wonder as she looks down at her work, "Oh my! When I dip my quill in ink, and put it on the page, a magical thing happens! A magical thing called writi-"
"I get the point, Granger." Draco snaps, "I was merely asking why you decided to waste your time writing of all bloody things."
"It's for the debate McGonagall wants us to prepare." Hermione seethes along with a glare, "About putting charms on the bathrooms so the opposite gender can't enter, remember? The one due tomorrow?"
Draco shrugs nonchantly.
"I'll just make it up." He dismisses.
"Oh yes!" Hermione retorts sarcastically, "It's obvious how much effort you put into your work!"
Draco sneers; "How dare you suggest I even try! Filthy Mudblood!"
"Besides," he continues, "I find the direct approach is much more effective. All action, on the spot. That's the best way to debate."
"Ever heard of the saying, 'The Pen is Mightier than the Sword', Malfoy?" Comes Hermione's weary reply.
Hermione once again glares at him.
"It was a rhetorical question, Malfoy. Violence isn't always the answer."
"It was a load of bloody rubbish!" he puts on a high pitched whine, mimicking her words, "The pen is mightier than the sword!'" Scoffing, he adds, "Don't tell me you're relaying more of that pathetic muggle mumbo-jumbo to me, Granger. Give me a sword any day." He shakes his head, looking disgusted, "The pen is mightier than the sword…pathetic mudblo-"
Later that day, Draco Malfoy was found in the hospital wing, with several deep stab wounds to critical (and embarrassing) areas. He has the scars to this day.
Moral of Story: Violence isn't always the answer, but it sure does work. Why choose a sword when the pen can write and draw blood?
other version is probably better. but i'm just putting it out there. R&R

Discussion in 'Fan Zone' started by Cbz40, Aug 31, 2006.
You're right, I mentioned that play before seeing the replay.
Did Watkins start?
Looks like Canty is making some plays....but I'm not watching the game, just looking at nfl.com.
Its not so bad... we would have been 7-7
If it were a real game... its very winnable
On a lighter note for all you guys calling for Drew's head... he was 9-11 for 62 yards... oh yeah 1 INT
I replied without reading the whole thread :cheers:
Romo to TO for 5 yards.
which OL guy is he beating?
Bledsoe hurt
Bledsoe hurt
Romo -> T.O. !!! DB may have a bit of a concuss.
bledsoe got knocked the out haha, TO GOT A CATCH YEA
Bledsoe dinged up a bit, Romo with a play fake, quick pass to Witten - Tipped by the defender and almost intercepted.
Bledsoe knocked wobbly
Geez Romo. Calm down. Good scramble though.
I see the "Skins are on pace for 125 yards of total offense and zero points. That Al Saunders really knows how to disguise his playbook.
Bledsoe got drilled in the head when Gurode screwed up the snap. I am not surprised he is shaken up as he very well could have a concussion. Let's hope not though.
Now the Dallas career of TO has officially begun with that reception
Romo back, pass to Rector for a 1st down. On the last play, Romo avoided to blitzers to get the pass off.
Yea, unfortunately, Charlie-boy needs some work on his broadcasting skills.

As Vale Profits In China, Will CEO Fail In Brazil?
In Brazil's state of Minas Gerais, the site of a deadly and destructive dam break at a facility operated by Vale (VALE) and BHP Billiton, people are unhappy that the mining giant is expanding in new geographies.
Bloomberg reports that Vale CEO Murilo Ferreira, who has been leader since a 2011 management shakeup spearheaded by impeached President Dilma Rousseff, faces a backlash from local politicians. A new, $14 billion low-cost iron ore mine, S11D, in the Northern reaches of Brazil, is scheduled to come online in 2017, and could keep a lid on iron ore prices as Rio Tinto Group (RIO), BHP Billiton (BHP) and other competitors struggle with slack demand from China.
Locally, the issues are about jobs and the economy. In the lengthy story on Vale and its leadership, Bloomberg reports
... Ferreira is overseeing the Brazilian mining giant's shift ... [leaving] behind a region that's seen spending and job opportunities steadily decline over the last four years, spurring bitter feelings ... Vale is controlled by a holding company whose owners include state pension funds and a development bank. And the changes come at a time when the new government is suffering from a recession and looking to distance itself from authorities and executives with perceived allegiances to the previous administration ... The northern push will allow Vale to start shipping low-cost, high-grade ore early next year from its new S11D mine, using state-of-the-art logistics not found in Minas Gerais. ... The prospect of getting iron ore to China cheaper and creating thousands of jobs in poor northern communities in the process is cold comfort for a group of Minas Gerais politicians ..."

In Pictures: The worst data breaches of 2014… so far (Q1)
The Identity Theft Resource Center, which tracks data breaches, has counted 204 of them from January 1 to March 27.
The Identity Theft Resource Center, which tracks data breaches, has counted 204 of them from January 1 to March 27.
Many companies have felt the effects of data theft over the last several years. It's 2014 and it doesn't look like the going is getting any easier. The technology sector seems most at risk with every week bringing the world another reported data breach. Here we look at the largest breaches in the last year.
We list the worst data breach incidents recorded by ITRC
It's early but it has been a bad year for personal data exposure already
For the last decade, Verizon has published its annual Data Breach Investigations Report.
Australia will finally get a mandatory data breach notification regime after a government bill was today passed by the Senate.
Australia is a step closer to having a mandatory data breach notification regime, after a bill to create such a scheme today received bipartisan support in the House of Representatives.
The government has finally introduced a long-awaited bill that will create a mandatory data breach notification scheme.
Yahoo's massive data breach in which at least 500 million user accounts have been hacked may be "the straw that breaks the camel's back" and complicate its planned sale to Verizon, says Centrify.
The typical organization loses 5% of its revenues to fraud by its own employees each year, with most thefts committed by trusted employees in executive management, operations, accounting, sales, customer service or purchasing, according to the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE). This type of malicious behavior by "privileged users" who have been given broad access to the company's computer assets has captured the attention of CIOs across the country.
Follow me, if you will, on a journey back in time to just one year ago. As 2013 turned into 2014, the information security industry was buzzing about the latest spate of breaches. Target had ushered in a new era of retail security breaches, with 40 million card numbers lost to the hackers. Little did we know at the time that this was just the beginning, and small potatoes in comparison to what was to come. One year ago, Neiman Marcus and Michaels had joined Target, and I wrote in response to the growing number of breach disclosures that "in fact, I have to wonder which retailers have not suffered breaches. The word on the street is that at least a half-dozen other retailers were compromised in the past few months, without publicity." Sadly, this turned out to be true. I hate being right all the time.
Beyond the compromise of valuable information, loss of revenues and damage to brand reputation, data breaches can pose a threat to the careers of security professionals involved: witness the sudden departures of both the CEO and the CIO of Target after last year's compromise of 40 million customers' credit cards.
It's so far been another sorry, sorry year in the technology industry, with big name companies, hot startups and individuals making public mea culpas for their assorted dumb, embarrassing and other regrettable actions.
Police in Austin, Texas, set up sting operations with cars they have under surveillance, watching for thieves to break into them. Marcus J. Carey's Web service, HoneyDocs -- born in the same city -- uses the same concept, only with computer files.
Obama's appointment of Vivek Kundra marks an important first step for rectifying the nation's concerns about IT.
This global study involving 350 companies in 16 industry sectors looks at the impact of data breaches and trends. The results from this annual research give insight and a better understanding of the factors that can minimise the financial consequences of a data breach, as well as the positive impact a business continuity management (BCM) program can have on the financial and reputational consequences of breaches.


text: Just checked out the Huddle Reports 7 round Mock Draft...they have us taking......................................... Donte Whitner S 5'11 205 Ohio St. Jr. Whitner was one of the elite recruits in the country three years ago out of high school. He was recruited as a corner, but got on the field earlier at safety and has not given up the spot since taking over. As a sophomore, despite being slowed by a knee injury, he totaled 69 tackles, four of them coming for a loss. This past season he was one of three Ohio St. defensive backs to earn 1st Team All Big 10, after finishing with career highs of 73 tackles, nine for loss, four sacks, and two interceptions. Donte Whitner is a talented safety prospect. He is a good athlete, has good speed, but his best attribute is his physicality. He flies around the field looking to tackle someone, and will not let anyone get in his way. He is very aggressive in the secondary. Whitner will hit you in the mouth, and wraps up to finish the play. He also has very good cover ability. Whitner has played strong safety, but may project better at free. He may even get a look as a corner for some teams, but is a work in progress there as he has no experience there. As a strong safety, Whitner is undersized. Thats why he may move over to free safety. He has all the talent to match up in single coverage, but at times gets turned around because he is not used to being locked up man to man. If he stays at strong, he will have problems covering tight ends because of his lack of size. Whitner is an interesting prospect. He is an excellent safety, and could have an immediate impact at that position. But, he may also have the talent to project as a cornerback for some teams, but he will need a lot of work to make that move. I believe he projects best at free safety, but will be a standout at either safety spot. This is a deep safety class, but Whitner is as good as any of them. He has an outside shot at landing in the Top 50 despite all the talent in this safety class. Which Safety would you pick for the Boys???

On 3 March 2016, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley introduced 'Aadhar Bill'. which was actually pitched as the Money Bill. It was being introduced with the objective of targeted delivery of financial & other subsidies, benefits and services. After getting passed in Lok Sabha, Aadhar Bill went to the Rajya Sabha for further approval.
However, it now seems negotiation on Aadhar Bill might impact the GST Bill. To read further Click Here.
How will Aadhar Bill Negotiations Impact GST Bill in Lok Sabha?
Aadhar Card was introduced by UPA Government and till now it worked as a valid ID proof. Aadhar Card was also being linked to various government schemes such as direct subsidy transfer for LPG, linking it with bank accounts, etc.
The facilities linked to Aadhar Card were optional till date as there was no valid law or bill to link them, neither was it mandatory for people to link them. Now, the Aadhar Bill introduced by the present government will not only link but will also provide services to the registered users or the correct owner of the services.
The bill will ensure that the transfers are made only to actual person with valid identification. It will, to an extent help in controlling the flow of black money in the economy.
Why is the decision on Aadhar Bill being projected as Money Bill Opposed By Opposition Parties?
Before we discuss on why the Aadhar Bill as Money Bill is opposed, we will tell what is a Money Bill.
According to the official definition, A Bill is a draft statute which becomes law after it is passed by both the Houses of Parliament (Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha) and approved to by the President. All legislative proposals are brought before Parliament in the forms of Bills. The Bills are of two types:
- Governmental Bills
- Private Members' Bill
Without going to detail, we can say procedurally – Bills can also be classified as:
- Ordinary Bills
- Money Bills and Financial Bills
- Ordinance Replacing Bills
- Constitution Amendment Bills
Directly coming to Money Bills, the definition of "Money Bill" is given in the Article 110 of the Constitution of India:
"Bills which exclusively contain provisions for imposition and abolition of taxes, for the appropriation of money out of the Consolidated Fund, etc., are certified as Money Bills."
- This Bill can only be passed in Lok Sabha.
- Rajya Sabha can recommend the amendments but has no right to make amendments in it.
- Lok Sabha has the option to accept or reject the recommendations made in Rajya Sabha.
- Rajya Sabha has no right to reject the Bill, if the Bill is not passed in Rajya Sabha within the time frame of 14 days the bill is deemed to be passed by both Houses at the expiration of the said period.
Do read the next section to know more about the Aadhar Bill.
So, Why is Aadhar Bill Opposed in the House?
The Bill is opposed because it is been alleged by the opposing parties that the Government has stated the Aadhaar Bill as a Money Bill to "circumvent legislative scrutiny by the Rajya Sabha". This is also because there is not way the bill can be rejected or amended by Rajya Sabha, so the opposition can best oppose it.
To Read More about the Amendments recommended by the opposition and government's reaction to them Click Here.
As a reaction to Aadhar Bill being stated as Money Bill, the opposition has warned the government, that the effects of negotiation on Aadhar Bill can impact the discussion on GST Bill.

New Jersey Governor seeks 'balance' in vaccine debate
By Sam Wilkin
LONDON Feb 2 (Reuters) - New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, a potential 2016 presidential contender, on Monday kicked off a fresh debate about vaccinations, saying his children received the recommended shots for measles but that parents needed a measure of choice.
Measles was declared eliminated from the United States in 2000 but a recent outbreak in California renewed debate over the so-called anti-vaccination movement. Fears about potential side effects of vaccines, fueled by debunked theories suggesting a link to autism, led some parents to refuse to allow their children to be inoculated.
"There has to be a balance and it depends on what the vaccine is, what the disease type is and all the rest," said Christie, on a trip to the United Kingdom. "I didn't say I'm leaving people the option. What I'm saying is that you have to have that balance in considering parental concerns."
The trip involved meetings and a tour at a life sciences research park in Cambridge, which prompted questions about the U.S. vaccination debate.
"All I can say is that we vaccinated ours," said Christie. "That's the best expression I can give you of my opinion... But I also understand that parents need to have some measure of choice in things as well so that's the balance that the government has to decide."
Democratic New Jersey Assemblyman Herb Conaway, criticized Christie's "wavering comments" as "irresponsible and endanger the health of our communities".
"The only thing government has to balance is what's best for the overall public health, and that means unambiguously supporting vaccinations," Conaway said in a statement.
Christie is in the UK - his state's third-largest trading partner after Canada and Mexico - to promote his state's life sciences industry. He will also be meeting with British Prime Minister David Cameron. Continued...

Kwaak3 Ports Quake3 to Android
IPhones and Nokia's N900 already have Quake3 versions. What could be more appropriate than a version of the shooter game for Android? The first release is now available to be downloaded.
As so often occurs with open source projects, the Quake3 port to Android was motivated by a developer acquiring new hardware. In this case it was user alias thunderbird2k who got a Motorola Milestone as a gift. He took one look at the Quake3 port for the N900 and quickly set himself upon reworking it for his Android mobile phone.
The result is a ready-made Android app, Kwaak3, available for download from the project page. Prerequisites for the shooter classic are Android as of version 1.6 and a minimum 256 MBytes RAM. The game is optimized for devices with a keyboard, with future work to be done on those without.

James on 8th: Roller Coaster Meal in the Dark
James on 8th was recommended to me by a waiter at Per Se, when I ate there last year. Needless to say, it had a lot to live up to. After driving around for 20 minutes to find parking and nearly missing the restaurant altogether we arrived unharmed and ready to feast. The decor is very modern. There is a lot of dark wood all around. Brown leather backed chairs grace the dining room, the bar towards the entrance is a statement of modernity and youth, fitted with stainless bar taps.
The menu at James is very impressive, both in price and substance. The cheapest thing on the menu at $12 is the sweetbreads. The most expensive at $38 is the Dover Sole. I thought this was a bit high so using my phone I checked the menu at Per Se to see what a comparable fish would cost at one of the best restaurants in the world. The Tuna is $36, a whole $2 cheaper than James. Yikes, not a good start.
My Herbed Sweetbreads with Wilted Lettuce, Pickled Radish and Spring Garlic Jus came out very quickly. The Jus was brimming with diced Garlic, I could see thousands of tiny pieces floating in my bowl and I got really excited. The Sweetbreads were delightfully pungent, with flavors of gym towels and toe crust, but boy do I love it. There's no polite veneer in that dish. You know what it is, it's staring you in the face and when done right, it's wonderful. Nothing can match its distinctive flavor. It was delicious.
The second dish was split between me and the two other diners' who were with me. I regretted that later, because we concentrated on one dish and left the other two alone. We had the Hand Cut Tagliatelle with Duck Ragu, Shaved Chocolate and Orange. For $16 this is not only a bargain, but may be one of the best reasons to visit James on 8th. A truly remarkable combination of flavors. And although the Tagliatelle was slightly overdone, could have used a minute less, it was still gorgeous. Our other dishes did get eaten, but with reservation.
My Stinging Nettle Tortelli with Bagna Cauda and Spicy Chick Peas was a great idea, but failed to deliver. The Chick Peas were crunchy and I loved it, but the Tortelli was also slightly crunchy, no doubt from being left under a heat lamp for too long. A minor point, but when you're paying $15 for 8 pieces of Tortelli I would expect better. I tried the other diners' dishes and they were also completely unremarkable. The Chilled Cucumber and Avocado Soup with Olive Oil, Poached Rock Shrimp and Chili Oil was lukewarm and tasted watered down. The Local Asparagus with Spring Onion, Smoke Coho Caviar and Sauce Béarnaise had a slight edge over the soup and I was actually happy to put it in my mouth. The Caviar was especially tasty. And even though it was Salmon Caviar, I enjoyed it all the same.
For the Main Course I had Grass Fed Veal Loin with Fava Beans, Morels au Naturel and Watercress Leaves. The meat was exquisite. It was the other ingredients, which left me feeling like I was giving away $29 of my hard earned money for nothing. The Sauce was shy and barely drizzled on and I had to ask for more, which the Maître d' was very quick to get. But the dish felt incomplete. I felt it needed more of everything except meat, of which there was plenty. More Beans, more Sauce, more excitement.
That was the sentiment last night. We needed more flavor. In fact, the most flavorful part of our meal was the 2006 Cuvee de la Serriene Chateauneuf du Pape and my cheese plate. Which was magical. The total bill with tip was $504. It's inexcusable for a restaurant to charge so much for its food and not deliver the goods. On top of that, it was quite possibly the darkest restaurant I've ever been to in my life. For all you fellow camera geeks, I had to use an ISO of 3200 at f1.8 to achieve the crap photos above. It was more like a nightclub then a restaurant. No, the waiter at Per Se had obviously never eaten the food at James, because if he had, he wouldn't have recommended it to us.

I see all the bells and whistles that spiceworks have. To be honest, I have no clue how to get this ball rolling and using it. I've watched the videos and read the steps, but I'm still clueless. Is there anything that actually outlines how to get started with this thing? I've loaded it and it showing my devices on my network, but that's all that I can do.

Keep IT Simple Technology Group is an IT service provider.
Welcome to spiceworks.
Your question is vague. Can you please post back what are you looking to achieve exactly so we can point you in the right direction.
Oct 11, 2010 at 7:49 UTC
Basically install it on the subnet you want to manage. Give it an administrative acount to scan with under settings, and then just make sure that SNMP is enabled on all printers etc - and make sure that WMI is enabled on all client machines.
Then have it scan (best to do overnight off backup hours if the network is large)
After that it will begin to populate all the data. Enjoy!! And Good Luck!!
