More Than A Feeling
Take Me Home Tonight
I Want You To Want Me,
You Really Got Me
Thank you for visiting my website!
I've been a storyteller most of my life. Growing up in Los Angeles and being involved in the entertainment industry, I started out writing screenplays. But the medium frustrated me, so I tried to shake things up with a creative exercise. To my tremendous surprise, a 650-page love story poured out of me. It may have been awful and ridiculously long (though, secretly, I still love it!), but it was the most fun I'd had writing in ages. And so I'd found my true voice as a writer. Since then, I've written dozens of contemporary romances, from YA to New Adult to single title. What does age matter when we're talking about finding the loves of our lives?!
I've got some exciting news! MORE THAN A FEELING, the fourth book in the Rock Star Romance series, is coming out April 4, 2017. You can preorder it now at Amazon!
Come visit my Facebook page or follow me on Twitter and be sure to sign up for my newsletter—I'll let you know when I've got cool stuff going on and when my books are coming out.
Talk to you soon,
TAKE ME HOME TONIGHT "is emotional and tremendously sexy, with a large cast of characters that readers will adore -- Kelly's rendering of Calix's grieving parents is particularly well-done -- but it is Mimi's strength that will linger long after the finish." - Sarah MacLean, Washington Post
Booklist calls I WANT YOU TO WANT ME "...steamy, hot, and totally engaging. The characters are realistic, and Kelly paints a vivid picture of what happens behind the scenes in the world of rock."

Lower lakes sea flood plan advances
A proposal to flood the drought-stricken Murray's lower lakes in South Australia with sea water is moving to the next stage.
Federal Environment Minister Peter Garrett has announced that the Federal Government will allow a study of the environmental impact of filling the lower lakes with sea water to stop soil acidification.
The South Australian Government had referred the plan to the Federal Government because the internationally-recognised lakes are drying up due to low river flows.
Mr Garrett says the public will have a chance to comment.
"My expectation is that the process will take some months to conclude," he said.
"Today's decision is simply to recognise that South Australia's proposal now means that there will be an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) on the proposal for potential transfer of sea water from the Coorong to Lake Alexandrina."
'Last resort'
SA Premier Mike Rann has welcomed the federal decision but made clear that letting sea water into the lower lakes to overcome acidification remains a last-resort option.
He says the process now triggered will mean that no sea water will go into the lower lakes during 2009.
Downstream communities along the Murray are worried about their water supplies if the sea water is let in.
Alexandrina mayor Kym McHugh says the council remains opposed to the sea water option, but is pleased the EIS stage will allow the public to have its say and explore all the options to save the ailing lower lakes of the Murray.
Conservationists back EIS
The Australian Conservation Foundation says it is pleased a study into the impact of putting sea water into Lake Alexandrina will look at other options to save the lower lakes.
Arlene Buchan from the Foundation says the Government should be able to secure 30 billion litres of fresh water to maintain the lakes until the end of the year.
"This is an important decision for Minister Garrett to have made because it means that all those other options must also be assessed as part of the process in trying to work out what we're going to do in trying to deal with the acidification problems in the lower lakes," she said.
"And of course the vast majority of scientific opinion is geared towards additional fresh water entering the lower lakes."
Clem Mason owns property along the shore of Lake Alexandrina and is sceptical that an EIS will be enough.
"I don't believe that it would be a foolproof study - I really don't understand what they're going to base it on and how they can work out," he said.
"They're only going to throw up scenarios 'What if?' and I don't believe we can put our signatures to such an environmental disaster."

Manipulating, influencing, persuading – these are the kinds of words associated with marketing.
The thing is that these words actually represent much more. They are psychology concepts, and that means when you're creating an advertising campaign, what you're really doing is tapping into the science running someone else's subconscious.
Basically, that makes you a superhero. High-five!
So let's assume you use your powers for good.
Do you really understand the full weight of what you are capable of doing with something as simple-sounding as creating a sales page? At your fingertips, you've got the ability to guide someone to making a decision and even a purchase by pulling the right psychological triggers. Do you know what they are and how to use them?
Yeah, you'e busy. I get it – and no problem. I've gone through and analyzed dozens of social and behavioral psychology studies and simplified them here for you into six core, scientifically-proven concepts that will make you a better marketer.
1. Avoiding losing what we have already is more important to us than gaining something new
Given how focused on chasing the next big milestone most of us are, you might be surprised to learn that when it comes to getting something new or protecting what we already have, we would much rather not lose what we currently have. This is the loss aversion principle at work, and it's why security products sell as well as they do. We want to feel more safe, so we do our best to protect what we have.
Another interesting addition to this idea is that we also give more value to that which we already have. This is due to the endowment effect. Therefore, we attribute more value to (for instance) the money we already have in our bank than future money we might make if we switch jobs or start a company.
This concept at work:
Geiko just wants to help you save money, and while their familiar gecko is also a symbol for trust and familiarity, it's the copy here that really does the magic. Why? Because we work hard for the money that's in our bank accounts. We don't want to spend more money than we have to, so the loss aversion principle is at work here on two counts. The focus of the ad is on saving money (i.e. preventing the loss of excess money) and so is the product. Insurance is all about protecting what you've already worked so hard for, and that's what almost all insurance branding is focused on – trust, reliability, and security.
2. Repetition has a huge impact on what we think about something
Annoyed you've seen an irritating ad 100 times? Too bad. Because it's going to keep happening because it works. Thanks to the mere exposure theory, the more familiar we are with something, the more likely we are to see that as a preferable option. Yes, in fact, broadcasting the same message over and over again does still work (although perhaps not to the extent it used to because we have so many more options available.)
Additionally, after being thoroughly bombarded with the same message, we begin to be effected by the frequency illusion. Have you ever felt like you just keep seeing something everywhere? It's not just you, it turns out. This is the frequency illusion at work, and it reinforces the repeated messages internally. Essentially, after a certain amount of messages have been received, our subconscious takes over and does the work of advertising firms for them. Think that's mildly terrifying? It gets even better.
Believe it or not, the theory translates to how much we like other people, too. The pretentiously-named propinquity effect simply states that we prefer people we have more exposure to. This is why work or college relationships often blossom into something more substantial. You're more likely to end up with someone you've spent some time with than a total stranger. It's not rocket science, but it does have some profound implications.
This concept at work:
Rather than show you repetition at work (which seems a little redundant) I think it's more valuable to note this as an industry trend. Don't get me wrong – repetition has been a key part of advertising campaigns for as long as advertising has been a thing. The difference now is that we have the internet, and those repeated messages are on our computers, phones, and tablets across programs and platforms retargeting and remarketing. You can read more about retargeting and remarketing here and get some solid tips on how to start implementing it.
Additionally, this is partially why guest posting, social media, and email lists are so effective. By showing up everywhere with the same message, you not only tap all of these principles, but you fulfill a desire humans crave – consistency.
3. We want to be like everyone else, and we like what's familiar
Hey, it turns out humans act like sheep by default! It's hard to stand out, and we'd really to just be liked by our peers.
That's because of the conformity and social influence principle, which you might know better as the idea for "keeping up with the Joneses." We also don't like to go back on what we said before, whether or not we know we're wrong. So when your mom won't admit she's made a mistake, now you know why. It's an instinct to go with what you held to be true before – this is the consistency principle at work.
Thanks to the persuasion principle of social proof, we tend to choose the same things other people we respect choose. And once we've given someone one "yes" – for instance, giving them our email in exchange for an ebook – it makes it much easier for them to get us to give them another yes. Think the Kirby dealer who manages to get in your door – enter the acquiescence effect.
4. We like important and pretty people (and we can't help it)
This is probably the most unfair concept on here, because it's not something we have much control over. But instinctively, and thanks to evolutionary processes no amount of political correctness can shake, we like traditionally attractive people. And what's worse/better depending on who you are, that makes us trust them. This is the authority principle, one of the core principles of persuasion.
The way attractiveness ties into how we grant authority and trust to others is also perpetuated by the halo effect. Especially when it comes to celebrities, we tend to think they are happier, smarter, etc. simply because they are pretty and have a perceived authority level.
Also worth noting, curves are scientifically better than edges. Humans prefer them. So, ladies? I'm just saying. You've got an unfair advantage.
This concept at work:
Celebrity endorsements, anyone?
5. We like the people we help more than the people who help us
You think you like getting favors and special treatment? Try doing it for someone else.
Seriously. It sounds crazy, but we actually like helping people more than receiving help ourselves. This is the Ben Franklin effect at work, and it's the reason we volunteer. We like the feeling of helping someone else. Part of the reason this is so fascinating is because when someone else helps us, we feel compelled to return the favor.
This is one of Robert Cialdini's persuasion principles – reciprocity. You can easily see where you could trigger a positive chain reaction here. Give someone something for free, and they'll give you their email. Keep sending them useful, relevant information, and they will keep wanting to give back, too (so make sure you do things like ask for reviews and testimonials).
This concept in action:
Warby Parker's marketing efforts are always phenomenal, but the thought put into their "one for one" landing page is really something to behold. The story being told here "begins with you" when you decide purchase glasses, enabling them to give glasses to someone in need. You're giving something to someone else from the moment you purchase a pair of glasses. And since you don't know exactly who is getting that pair of glasses, chances are your rose-colored glasses are going to be pointed straight to Warby Parker.
6. We're not as in control as we think we are
In The Social Animal, NYT bestselling author David Brooks spends the better part of the book surveying hundreds of studies that essentially point to one clear, unsettling conclusion – our subconscious is making most of the calls. We think we are choosing something or making a rational decision, but the reality is there are so many unconscious factors at play that we can't even acknowledge them all. It's impossible for us to because we have so many conscious decisions we make from moment to moment.
From priming to the decoy effect to clustering, there are so many subtle, almost basic seeming ways for us to effect how someone else makes a decision. And that is a powerful thing.
Are there any psychology concepts I missed that you'd like to see covered? Comment below, and I'll start researching and analyzing to get you the best, most up-to-date information available.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
Looking for some FREE advice....My 80 year old Uncle who lives in Nokomis, FL.( I am his niece from RI) has no children and recently lost his spouse (my blood aunt).He planned on having 2 relatives (my husband and cousin both from RI) be co-executors when he finalized will. He was recently told that Florida law only permits a Florida resident to be an executor.This news upset my uncle. I researched it and it seems like my husband would have been able to be an executor along with my cousin. I read that the spouse of a niece/nephew etc... could hold this position. Again this is my blood aunts husband who wants to appoint his nephew, my husband to this very important job. Am I misreading the law on this???
Thank you in advance!!!
The answer is in the FL Statutes: Section 733.304 - A person who is not domiciled in the state cannot qualify as personal representative unless the person is: (1) A legally adopted child or adoptive parent of the decedent; (2) Related by lineal consanguinity to the decedent; (3) A spouse or a brother, sister, uncle, aunt, nephew, or niece of the decedent, or someone related by lineal consanguinity to any such person; or (4) The spouse of a person otherwise qualified under this section.
Please note, Sarasota County will require a bond be posted since you are not a FL resident. If you're looking to prepare a FL Will, contact a local attorney to ensure you've got it all lined up correctly.Ask a similar question
A lot of states have laws like this and a FL attorney will do a better job at answering the question for you than I can, but in NC, an individual from out of state may serve as executor, so long as they have appointed someone in NC to accept service of process in any proceeding as it relates to the estate. I would like to believe that the good people of Florida have a similar exception to the rule. Good Luck.Ask a similar question

Re: does ECU prevent engine braking
BBOB this is the place How do I close the other posts. Im new to this and got lost. I returned the plunger and got 480 RPM then Pushing on the linkage didnt work at first but I remembered you said something about the TPS switch and I remembered seeing the E.8.5 must be same as E85 says me. I moved the tps untill I could feel the ISC moving while pushing on it Got the off on but had to let the throtle snap closed. I shortened the doubble return spring now --- off each time the throtle closes and idle at 730 in drive and when I let the throttle snap closed idle is 680 but the TPS WAS A GUESS it needs to be set correctly.
Re: does ECU prevent engine braking
Sounds like the TPS is way out of whack....
Probe the wires going into the TPS. With ISC motor fully retracted and the throttle at the closed bore position one of the TPS leads should read 5.0 volts and another around 0.5 volts with the key on. Adjust the TPS with the throttle in the min air position until you get 0.5 volts on that lead. Then the TPS will be close.
It still sounds like the closed throttle switch is not making sometimes. Double check it's operation while driving using the onboard diagnostics. Just activate after you start the engine and you can drive while in diagnostics and watch the OFF icon for the closed throttle switch status.
Go to the post, click on EDIT and delete the post so that it is blank or just put moved in the box.

From "The Dictionary of Automotive Terms":
overrunning clutch:
[1] A clutch mechanism that will drive in one direction only. If driving torque is removed or reversed, the clutch slips.
[2] A part of a starter motor designed to avoid armature damage caused by severe overrevving.
[3] A device in an automatic transmission that disengages the engine on overrun

Re: does ECU prevent engine braking
bbob The tps closed angle is out of reach. However everything is great = Idle at 650 - 700 throtle closing at all speed except I have to tap the gas some times to get the off indidication. Even with all the linkage, TPS, & ISC removed the butterflys need a little help to fully close. There are marks on the throtle body in 4 places where the edge of the butterflys meet when fully closed I can find no other place that is causing any binding.
Re: does ECU prevent engine braking
What do you mean the TPS closed angle is out of reach...???
Retract the idle speed control motor fully, close the throttle to get the 450-500 idle as you describe and ADJUST THE TPS to get the .5 volts. Don't try closing the blades further. Loosen the screws holding the TPS and adjust it to .5 volts and then retighten the TPS and check the setting.
Re: does ECU prevent engine brakingOriginally Posted by Katshot
Sooo..... I explain to you what overrunning clutches are used for in an automatic transmission and you think I don't know what an overrunning clutch is...??? LOL LOL
Sorry it wasn't clear to you. I meant that "I didn't know what you were talking about" in reference to an overrunning clutch allowing the transmission to coast or glide for fuel economy....
While you are in the dictionary there, look up sprag clutch and one way roller clutch and sort out the difference and report back...LOL...hint: They are both overrunning clutches.
Re: does ECU prevent engine braking
I like the name "Mechanical Diode" better.....
Re: does ECU prevent engine brakingOriginally Posted by bbob
The point was that the overrun clutch could make the car "feel" like it's gliding to an extent since it severely limits the engine-braking affect. I was just mentioning that MAYBE this was contributing or responsible for what he was experiencing.
Remember this?:
My question is: Is it possible that this 89 FLEETWOOD of mine is designed to eliminate engin braking to save the power trainl
I was only trying to point out that YES, most modern cars ARE designed to greatly limit engine braking and that the overrun clutch was a major contributor to that end. You obviously don't agree. Big surprise.
Sorry if I intruded on YOUR thread.
Re: does ECU prevent engine braking
FWIW, early cars such as the 1930 Dodge Brothers had a knob you could pull out of dashboard that allowed the engine to freewheel on the downgrades in the interest of reduced wear and increased economy by use of a one-way sprag clutch. One of the shortcomings of the later Borg-Warner manual overdrive transmissions that used to be very popular was that when in overdrive, when the foot was removed from the gas pedal, the engine went to idle and there was no engine braking because of the same sprag clutch feature. Upon coming to a down grade the driver was required to floor the footfeed until the transmission downshifted out of overdrive and pull out the overdrive control handle to lock the transmission in third gear. This would give you the required engine braking. Newer automatic transmissions are advertised as having an indirect overdrive gear with a numerical ratio lower than one like the Borg-Warner but they do not have the over running clutch.
Re: does ECU prevent engine braking
One day while cruising the local junkyard I came across a Chevy that had an odd transmission; a heavy duty three-speed with overdrive. One thing led to another and this wound up in a Chevy 1/2 ton Aluminum Step-Van along with a 2-53 series Jimmy railroad refrigerator car diesel that a guy used for years to service a "contract" mail and newspaper delivery route.

Re: does ECU prevent engine braking
It was a heavy duty three speed manual with a Borg-Warner overdrive tailshaft housing. The only way you can spot one is to measure the center to center distance between the main and countershafts. I don't recall the dimensions.
Re: does ECU prevent engine brakingOriginally Posted by Katshot
You don't get it do you...???
The over running clutches in the automatic transmissions are NOT for preventing engine braking. Modern cars are NOT designed to greatly eliminate engine braking and the overrunning clutches in the transmissions are NOT a "major contributor" to that end. And an "overrunning clutch" that is employed in an automatic transmission would not "severely limit" engine braking it would TOTALLY ELIMINATE it if it were used like that. The over running or one way clutches don't drag or slip in one direction....they just turn completely loose.
This is not my opinion but a statement of fact. I have the power flow diagrams for a 4T60/65E, a 4T80E and a 4L80E in front of me and there are no overrunning clutches active or preventing engine braking in the units when driving down the road or coasting to a stop. They just do not function that way. Just because there is an "overrunning clutch" in an automatic transmission and the definition in some manaul suits your fancy does NOT mean that the overrunnig clutch is in there for preventing engine braking. If you disagree, get out the service manuals or power flow diagrams for the transmissions and tell me which overruning clutch that is in the unit you think is responsible for this. I have gone back and looked and they do not do that.
No, this is not my thread. I wasn't yours, either. You post erroneous information, I correct it so that others are not mislead. You are obviously not going to pay attention or understand it so I could care less...I just don't want others to be misinformed by your erroneous comments. I am not making this up to argue with you...you were fed some bad info. It doesn't work like you were told.
BTW....there ARE some street motorcycles that have clutch setups in them to partially eliminate engine braking. They are set up with an overrunning (or more appropriately a one way clutch) on some of the clutch plates in the clutch pack so that the engine is only held back by a small portion of the clutch on overrun. This way, if there is a severe, sudden overrun, the partial clutch pack will slip and prevent rear wheel lockup. This is in the market today on some superbikes. It is NOT employed on any automatic transmissions in cars that I know of and certainly not in any GM automatic transmissions at all.
Re: does ECU prevent engine braking
The first application of over running sprag clutches in automatic transmissions that I am aware of was on the stators in the multi stage torque convertors such as the old Buick Twin Turbine Dynaflow. These had nothing to do with the transmission free wheeling but improved the efficiency of the transmission from torque convertor stall to highway speeds.

I never really understood the need for photo moderation until Chris and I built our first webapp together. This webapp was called FaceStat, a website where you could upload photos of yourself and get "feedback" from other people on things like whether or not you looked friendly and if you could win a fight with a medium-sized dog. It was a surprisingly popular, extremely viral website with horrible retention and no prayer of a viable business model.
At first we just let people upload whatever photos they wanted and comment however they wanted. Not surprisingly, things quickly got out of hand. Hours after we released the website we started seeing extremely disturbing uploads. We tried to use a user-moderation system but there were lots of false positives and it pained me to subject unsuspecting users to some of the things people uploaded. We tried automated systems but they were extremely unreliable.
This experience caused us to build CrowdSifter, a content moderation crowdsourcing tool, where our FaceStat app was the first customer. It worked really well and we got a few early customers. But our customers seemed interested in lots of tasks besides content moderation, so we decided to build a general purpose crowdsourcing system that we called CrowdFlower. Eventually CrowdSifter fell into disrepair and we shut it down and moved the existing customers over to our general crowdsourcing platform. CrowdFlower became so popular that we renamed our company CrowdFlower and we got in the business of helping companies get very high quality work done through crowdsourcing. We signed up over 50 channels, over 3 million contributors and hundreds of name-brand customers. We built out an enterprise sales team and learned how to deal with procurement departments. We even did some work for the US Government.
But as our engagement sizes rose, our sales costs rose too, and we stopped being able to service anyone except customers with the largest crowdsourcing jobs. Which in some ways completely contradicts the promise of crowdsourcing – a super-flexible workforce. We have a self-service site with some happy customers, but the learning curve is steep and while we're working on improvements, I'm not sure if it's possible to make a general-purpose crowdsourcing tool that's also easy for everyone to use.
So we decided to build specific self-service products that would be easy to use, reliably fast and high-quality. I wanted to start with an application that we had lots of experience with and one where we felt like we really understood our customer's needs. So I chose content moderation. The customers have expanded in the past few years with iPhone developers getting lots and lots of user generated images and living in constant fear of apple shutting them down for objectionable content. I've seen several indie app developers sign up for our beta and in particular I hope that this is a great product for them.
We plan on releasing several of these self-service applications over the next few months. If there are any crowdsourcing applications you would especially like to see, please let me know.

That UL genius, Glen van Peski has done it again! The new Mariposa Plus UL pack is finally here. See it at http://www.gossamergear.com/cgi-bin/gossamergear/Mariposa-Plus.html
The biggest difference that I can see between the Plus and the original Mariposa is the use of 70 denier 2.2 oz. urethane-coated ripstop nylon in place of 40 denier 1.3 oz silnylon.
This adds 3 ounces to the weight as well as greater durability & abrasion resistence. Weight is 17.8 – 20.5 oz. depending on features installed. The original Mariposa is 14.8 – 18.2 oz.
Oh yes, and you can get it in sage green as well as the original royal blue for those who want to blend into the environment more (makes it harder for the IRS -or SAR – to find you).
The price is unchanged.

I prefer to use a hammock, so often I have no sleeping pad, although I sometimes carry a 2-section Z-Rest (20″x10″) as a sit-pad or I might carry a GG ThinLight pad as hammock insulation. I wondered how well a Gossamer Gear pack would work with no pad, or a minimal pad, in the back pad-holder. I'm pasting below my e-mail to Gossamer Gear and the response, in hopes that this information is be useful to others who also don't carry a sleeping pad, or whose sleeping pad won't fit in a GG pack's pad-holder.

Subject: Mariposa Plus: a few questions

I'm considering purchasing a medium/large Mariposa Plus backpack. I often use a hammock, so I don't carry a sleeping pad. I notice that you recommend a Z-Lite pad cut down to six sections. Assuming that I'm also using the stays, what is the minimum number of sections that will give effective bag and back-mesh support: would two sections of Z-Lite be sufficient? If not, then would four?
[One section of Z-Rest measures 20″x5″; thus, it takes two sections to span the pad-holder area.]
Instead of inserting a sleeping pad in the back of the pack, would a Wide (or Wide/Long) 1/8″ ThinLight insulation pad unrolled in the packbag give it sufficient shape? Is the packbag at least 30″ tall without involving the expansion collar?
[The Wide ThinLight is 29″ wide; the Wide/Long ThinLight is 30″ wide.]
Thanks in advance. I'll post your response on BackPackingLight.com, since there are probably others who would be interested.

Hello Douglas,
Good questions,
1. You've got many options with the Mariposa line, or with the G4 or G5 as well. In the outside pad holder you can use a cut down Z-lite, 2 sections is enough for me but 4 works and so does six. If you put too many in it holds the pack too far off of your back IMHO. You can also use our torso pad or a single section of one (my preference). You can also use a therma-rest minimally inflated and folded. Some people don't put anything in there at all and just pack carefully. Again, I personally prefer a single section nightlight torso pad or a cut down Z-Lite because it keeps the pack close to my body, gives some shape/cushion, and the convoluted shape of these pads helps with sweat evaporation. Plus this pad can be used to sit on in camp or on breaks and makes the base of my pillow or extends whatever pad I'm sleeping on.
2. the pack body without the extension collar is about 25 1/2″. So, while rolling up a pad and putting it inside the pack in a tube works and many customers do it the wide/long would be a bit long for that unless you used the extension collar maxed out. This is more commonly done with our 3/8 thinlight, 3/4 nightlight, or any other longer and bulkier pad.
Thanks, and thanks for the heads up on posting this, greatly appreciated.
I hope others who are considering a GG pack find this useful. (I ordered the Mariposa Plus.)Jun 7, 2006 at 8:05 pm #1357657

I have a regular mariposa, and I don't think I'd try to use it without a pad in the pad pocket while using the stays, as they'd be rubbing directly on your back. I can't comment on the minimal number of sections, however. I use a thermarest ultralight in the pocket, partially inflated. If it is inflated too much the pack ends up too far from your back and tends to pull back too much.Jun 8, 2006 at 8:04 pm #1357717

I tried it with the stays and without a pad; I agree with you.
> I can't comment on the minimal number of sections, however.
Two sections of Z-Rest (or one section of GG NightLight) appear to be sufficient, although I haven't had it on the trail yet. The stays keep the shape regardless. I'm going to try it without the stays soon, and see if minimum sections still keep the shape reasonable.Jun 9, 2006 at 3:52 am #1357722

Hope that you are still considering the Mariposa that will be 5.5 inches thick vs the current 7.5 for all the folk who have sereously reduced their volume and can't fill the current pack even with 4-5 days of food…. I'd like to have seriel nunber one.
Perhaps some others will weigh in on this size.

I have looked at the MLD … but could use a little more space and something just a little more durable than either pack. I really like the simple designs of the UL packs, but enjoy the more durable materials since I cant get to the really light weight pack weights some other scan.

Jack, it was great to meet ya'll too, and to check out your outstanding gear.
Glen and I recently sat down to prioritize our new gear directions for the coming months/year. High up on that list is a "new" UL or SUL pack that will be a smaller volume pack like the G6 but with more features like the G5 and/or the Mariposa. We haven't decided on a fabric or anything else yet, but I wouldn't be surprised to see it in several versions. I have no other details to share since this is in the early planning stages but it will happen.

I use a 1/16 inch pad in the Mariposa pad pocket. It is folded in half in some spots and in fourths in some spots, so thickest parts are 1/4″ thick. I find that to be plenty of cushion to keep the stays from bothering my back.

Hi there,
I have a graph which pulls its data from an XML page. I have all this working fine, however I want the data on the XML page to change depending on the option selected by the user.
On my page which displays the Visifire graph I have a radio control and a button, the user should select an option in the radio control and press the button to re-draw the graph.
The XML page should be called and based on what was selected in the radio button it should display different XML.
I can think of 2 ways to do this
1) pass the radio button value in a URL variable in the link within the Visifire JavaScript which point to where the XML is - I dont know where to start with this as my pages are in ASP.net with VB scripting language so I dont know how I would pull the variable then pass it on
2) 2 When the button is pressed update a session variable, then in the XML pull the variable from the session variable. Pressing the button will case the page to refresh and vus the graph to re-draw and when it does it will redraw using the new value of the session variable - I am close to getting this working except I get some strange results, the session variable seems to update, but the XML page isnt pulling it (I have enabled session state on the XML page)
If someone can help me with either of the above, or have a better way of doing it please help!
Any help is much appreciated!

Januar 2001
BeschreibungThis book brings together the most current information available about the mammals of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park -- a popular tourist destination that some have called the rooftop of eastern North America. Written in accessible language and illustrated throughout with color photographs, it is a work that both the casual reader and the serious student of zoology will appreciate.Home to large, readily visible mammals, such as black bears and white-tailed deer, as well as secretive, seldom-seen animals, such as shrews, moles, and mice, the park is one of the country's most fascinating wildlife havens. Donald W. Linzey describes the seventy species of mammals that now occur -- or have recently occurred in the park. Included for each animal is succinct information about its size, external appearance, behavior, numbers, habitat, and ecology. Also included are a checklist of the mammals and a list of the localities referred to in the text.
PortraitDonald W. Linzey, a wildlife biologist and ecologist, is professor of biology at Wytheville Community College in Wytheville, Virginia. He is an authority on the mammals of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and its environs.

It's His Workplace
The cloth slipped off her face and down to the nape of her neck like silk against a plain surface. Her lavish chestnut hair was laid out on the pillow while her arms and legs were placed in different positions every time he called for her to move to the left, to the right, or in any direction he saw fit. Unlike others, he - the photographer - seemed almost content with the little clothing she had on. He was completely unaffected by the beauty in front of him. He had to be or he wouldn't be doing his job correctly if he was ever awestruck by the numerous models that he set his camera on. It would be unprofessional as well as inappropriate...especially if the model is Gabriela.
There were many ways to describe the woman, but Damien saw her as someone who may be a sight for numerous sore eyes across the city, but was never affected by flattery. Another characteristic she carried was her haughty attitude towards people like Damien. He found her practically annoying and troublesome---although he sees every other model like that. Gabriela was a special case, considering she was the one that got him started in the first place.
"Smile less. Look as if you're pondering." Damien ordered in a slightly bored tone, but she did as told despite how undemanding he seemed. She stared at him all through the shoot though, caring little of her poses. Her eyes never wavered. They were cold and seemingly threatening, something she developed, and they bothered him ever so slightly. The model had always done this to him...watch him with every intention of talking but never doing so. At times it also amazed him at how she looked at him with so much intensity and still feigned emotions for the shoot.
"I went to see my father and his relatives the other day." Gabriela said, breaking the silence that driven a wedge between them
Damien looked at her strangely with his eyebrow arched up. "You, Gabriela, hate visiting family. Did they bribe you?" He replied, his tone still bored and uninterested.
Her thin eyebrows folded into a frown and her mouth twisted along with it. "You'll live." She blurted. Now he stopped his finger and the snaps of his camera and looked at her strangely. He stood at the boarder of curiosity and not caring.
Gabriela inwardly smirked with triumph of catching his attention as she sat up, not paying attention to the twisted straps of her delicate dress. She ruffled the end of her dress that lay on her knobby knees mindlessly and she spoke again, "My aunt, as much as she loves to pry into my private life, gives good advice. Auntie told me that I'll "live through the pain and hardship." Strange, isn't it?"
A snort escaped Damien at the words. "Pain? What pain? The only pain you experience is from those things you women refer to as high heels." He replied with a teasing smirk. Gabriela did not respond as quickly as would he would've guessed, instead her eyes softened and she moved so that her posture was more relaxed. Her straightened mouth that was painted with lipstick twisted even more and her head tilted it. This all caused him to become more annoyed. She was thinking her words out before she spoke them, an unusual habit she carried while many did not. A habit would not get under his skin usually, as he did have some unspoken ones, but this particular habit - or quality could be another word for it - was her being thoughtful. Gabriela was hardly ever thoughtful.
Before any words left her mouth, he turned away from her and went to viewing the images on his camera. He was attempting to ignore whatever she was going to say, that Gabriela could see. Like the smirk, she held back the want to roll her eyes snobbishly. "It got me thinking," she started, noticing him lick his lips in muffled anxiety or uneasiness. "About you and his sister."
If it wasn't for his self-control, he may have broken or dropped the precious camera. As unsubtle going. And he didn't like it, very much.
"I'm not emotionally scarred, Gabby." He spat, unintentionally sounding defensive, but his tone didn't affect her. She just nodded her head in an almost maternal and understanding fashion.
Her legs seemed to be a tad stiff as she stood up, but she began to walk away. Off to find to her dressing room with her not-literally-invisible assistants, she called out to him, "You really need to pay attention to how many years have passed!"
Irritation crawled at his skin and his spine, while his mind churned with unhealthy thoughts. Damien never pondered on the past without Gabriela pressing him to...
He really hated working with her.

Hello from Calloway County. There is a range in Boaz a little bit north of Mayfield; the Kentucky Regulators Gun Club. Unless there is one in Tennessee somewhere close to you, that may be the closest one.
I've never been there... I shoot at the LBL range (public and free), but a buddy of mine is a member there and says it's a good one.

Showers provided additional excitement to the qualifying session of the Australian Grand Prix. For the BMW WilliamsF1 Team Ralf Schumacher had more luck in terms of timing and qualified third on the grid. Team mate Juan Pablo Montoya will start from sixth place for the first race of the season, on Sunday at 3:00am UK time.
Ralf Schumacher - Position: 3rd
"Of course I am pleased with my result. As we knew it would start raining, we feared we would miss the best moment for having a quick lap. But our timing was good. It is a pity for Juan, who was blocked on his flying lap, as our team result could have been even better. My car was good. I just had a bit of understeer, which we should get sorted out by tomorrow."
Juan Pablo Montoya - Position: 6th
"I had only one run and I think I lost about six or eight tenths because Fisichella held me up. That was a bit disappointing because there was a lot more to come in the car. But anyway, I feel well prepared for tomorrow. In the morning session we have found out quite a few useful things."
Sam Michael (Chief Operations Engineer
"We had a reasonably good day given the weather circumstances. Juan Pablo was unlucky to have traffic on his first run. Ralf decided to sit out the first three or four minutes to avoid the traffic and managed to get a clear lap and to put in a good time . But in terms of competitiveness, the car is reasonable. The drivers were quite complimentary about the balance. The important thing now is to capitalise on it tomorrow and make sure we get the best result in the race with a healthy points haul."
Gerhard Berger (BMW Motorsport Director) "It was very difficult to get the timing right in today's qualifying, due to the showers preventing us from getting a dry lap in without too much traffic. It worked well for Ralf, but not for Juan. For the race we have many chances starting from our grid positions. We have enjoyed two trouble free days behind us and all the test kilometres we completed in the last two months are now paying off. I hope this will also be the case tomorrow. Reliability is massively important in the first race as all the new cars are at an early stage of their development."
Rain starting after 30 minutes.
Average air temperature 17°C. track temperature 17°C.

Sanford saw half-year profit stall as increased sales of greenshell mussels were offset by declines in hoki, squid, salmon and skipjack tuna prices, and the fishing company took a $2 million impairment on its Australian operations.
On an earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation basis, the Auckland-based firm saw returns rise by almost $4 million to $29.89 million in the six months to March 31, compared with the same period a year earlier.
However, tax-paid profit was roughly static at $13.34 million, compared with $13.12 million in the previous period, reflecting a combination of higher depreciation, amortisation and impairment costs of $9.97 million ($7.52 million previously), increased net interest costs and a somewhat smaller gain on foreign exchange hedge contracts than in the same period a year earlier.
Currency gains from hedging delivered $3.49 million to the bottom line in the first half of the current financial year, compared with $4.33 million the previous year.
The result was achieved on a total sales increase to $230.3 million from $228 million.
Shares in the company closed the day down 1.3 per cent on $2.90.
On an ebitda basis, "price increases for hake, hoki, ling, greenshell mussels, skipjack tuna and squid were in most cases reduced or negated by the strengthened NZ dollar exchange rate", the company said.
Its average foreign exchange rate increased to US80c from US76c, compared with a year earlier.
While a US1c movement in the New Zealand dollar exchange rate equates to around $1.2 million in full-year ebitda, its hedging policy sees 70 per cent of US dollar sales hedged 12 months ahead, and 65 per cent of yen-denominated sales covered on the same basis, with lower levels ofhedge cover running into lateryears.
The company's profitability also suffered after its vessel the San Nikunau was seized by the United States Coastguard in December.
The San Nikunau was one of two Sanford boats detained in American Samoa, with the San Nanumea held over injury claims from current and former crew.
Sanford has vowed to fight "vigorously" the seven charges it faces, including obstruction of justice, after an investigation by the US Coastguard. The case will be heard in Washington DC in August.

Do you honestly think this would happen, with the media in charge of the spin?
The same reason it would be hard to explain to the police ("look! this rabble rouser is using a fancy word for throwing politicians out of a window, and when it was done in other lands it actually was done with real windows in order to kill the politicians") would be the reason why it wouldn't make much of a dent in the public view. The more the media screamed, the stupider it would look.

Despite the authorial sketch ("She now lives in Dorset, where she teaches Latin"), anyone expecting a genteel account of "the women behind the Caesars" will be in for a shock. It includes a contemporary account of how Messalina (Mrs Claudius), passed her leisure hours: "She stood there naked and for sale, with her nipples gilded, under the trade-name of She-Wolf."
This wonderfully researched work displays wit and cultural reach. Julia, daughter of Augustus, is compared to Dorothy Parker for her crack about restricting errant sex to times of pregnancy: "Passengers are never allowed on board until the hold is full." Sex may sell the book, but there is much else, such as Livia's "indoor illusion" of a garden in Rome.Reuse content

- Head Trainer Barry Weinberg and Team Physician Dr. Rick Wright have a very quiet and boring summer and fall.
- Assistant General Manager John Mozeliak gets his own starring role – hopefully in the American League.
- the new radio broadcast team of John Rooney and Mike Shannon mesh so well that fans are motivated to turn off their television sound just because they are that good.

league system all post winning records, providing summer excitement to fans from

November 8, 2016 thru March 7, 2017
Starting November 1, 2016, we will be working out at the Catlin Gabel School track, located on the west side of Portland at 8825 SW Barnes Road. Park in the parking lot on the east side of the school (bear right when entering driveway off Barnes Road). Catlin Gabel is also located next door to Providence St. Vincent's Hospital.
The loop track surrounds the athletic field to the north and in a "bowl" below the school. Workouts begin at 6 p.m. and end at 7 p.m. Suggested arrival time is 5:45 p.m. for warm-up. The ORRC has a contract with Catlin Gabel to open this track for public use and pays a fee for use of the lights. You won't find a better location to keep in shape this winter under the safety of the lights. These workouts are held in all conditions – rain, snow, sleet, etc. Training options include steady running/walking at your own pace around the track (outside lanes please) and track repeat sessions. See session list below. Repeat sessions are geared for variety to make it fun and include approximately 2 ½ miles of speed. Each workout is unique. You can also choose to do your own workout.
Warm-up and Cool Down
All runners/walkers should warm-up before working out. 15-20 minutes of easy jogging or walking. Repeat runners include 100 meter strides. Don't forget a light stretch after warm-up and cool down and stretch after your workout for 10-20 minutes. Always rehydrate afterwards.
Bring your own fluids to the workout. Water source is turned off during most of the winter months. Repeat sessions are designed for experienced runners. As a guide – you should not be doing repeat training if your weekly mileage is less than 20 miles per week and no more than 10% of your weekly mileage should be composed of repeat sessions. Be sure to take a rest day or a very easy run day after any speed workouts. All participants should be medically able and properly trained before participating in any physical exercise.
Repeats and Recovery
To keep the workouts simple, recoveries will generally be one half the distance of the stated repeat. For example, if the repeat is 800m, recovery will be 400m. Recoveries between sets indicated by ( ), will be 400m regardless of last repeat. No recoveries less than 200 meters.
Steady State Runs/Walks
For those who just want to run or walk a designated distance, we have a 4.5 mile and 6.7 mile route. The 1.5-mile warm-up is included in these routes. These routes have written directions but enough people have run these that you shouldn't need them. If you want to go a shorter distance, we can make adjustments for you.

There are few places in Europe as richly textured in its mix of ancient and modern history, than the city of Malaga. Its foundations are three thousand years old, going back to early Phoenician traders who settled in Malaga along the Guadalhorce River. Its name probably came from the Phoenician word, "Malac", which means to salt. Beginning as a fish-salting centre, it slowly grew in commercial importance, with a rich industry in metals such as copper and silver.
The Greeks followed several centuries behind the Phoenician trade; with an eye on the precious metals mined in the area they called Iberia. By then, Phoenician factories along the Mediterranean were controlling its mineral wealth and exporting it to Carthage, Sicily, the Greek Magna and the Aegeon. The early Greeks used the trade route of the Phoenicians, sending its first Greek products to the west through the Iberian peninsula. Greek rule ended in 550 BCE when Carthage took control of Malaga. The Phoenicians were forced to abandon their settlements while Carthage managed Malaga's commercial industry.
Greece had not shown any special interest in Malaga except as a port for the precious metal industry, nor did it receive a great deal of stimulus under Carthage's rule. The Greek and Phoenician heritage did leave behind some gifts, however. The Iberians were introduced to new crops, such as olives and straw, developed new techniques and styles in ceramics, adapted a trade currency and acquired first a Phoenician, than a Greek alphabet. Most of Greek artefacts are found inland however, leaving Malaga an industrious but under-developed city.
The Roman Empire attacked Malaga and other parts of Spain around 218 BCE, driving out the Carthaginians. Malaga benefited greatly under Roman rule once it became included in the Hispania Ulterior of the Roman Empire. It was transformed rapidly into a confederated city with its own special law, the Lex Flavia Malacitana. Malaga became one of the few Iberian cities to adjust well to its new Roman identity. The city experienced a cultural and economic revolution as the Roman theatre and the city port were constructed. When Rome embraced Christianity, so did Malaga, and the people continued to follow the Roman life-style until the collapse of the empire, with its fall during the fifth century, first by the Visigoths, then when the Byzantine Empire took control over Malaga.
The Byzantine Empire was not able to hold onto Malaga very long. The beautiful coastal town was prime real estate for conquering armies. By 624 CE, the Byzantine's were forced from the peninsula during the Muslim/ Arab conquest. During this time period, fortifications were built, encircling the town, including the famous Alcazaba, Built as part of the defence structure; the magnificent castle is also an architectural wonder.
From Malaga, the Moors exported goods to the entire Mediterranean and to the seaport of the Arabian Kingdom of Granada. Malaga became a significant Moorish city, famous for its figs and wine. Moorish culture flourished, with festivals and activities, while the population prospered, erecting many magnificent buildings and works of art.
Malaga was one of the last towns to fall to the Reconquista, giving it a long history of Moorish influence. In 1024, it became the capital of the Taifa de Malaga, an independent Muslim kingdom ruled by the Hammudid dynasty in the Caliphate of Cordoba. This rule continued through four distinct time periods; from 1026-1047, from 1073-1090, from 1145-1153, and from 1229-1239, when it was finally conquered by the Nasrid Kingdom of Granada.
Although Islamic rule had been peaceable, with Jewish colonies and clans of Christians living side by side with the dominantly Muslim community, it suffered another fate during the Reconquista. The siege of the stubborn city in 1487 was one of the longest in the history of the Christian Monarchs. At its end, the Moorish people were punished for their resistance by being sold into slavery, or captured and put to death. Much of the Moorish architecture was destroyed, with the exception of the Alcazaba and its fortifications. The once booming city experienced a slow decline, exacerbated by epidemics of disease, food shortages, floods and earthquakes. The Christian communities were built outside its walls to encourage the development of churches, convents and the formation of new neighbourhoods.
Malaga enjoyed a series of economic bursts as it began entering the eighteenth century. It never lost its reputation as one of the most rebellious cities in the country, and contributed greatly toward the triumph of Spanish liberalism. It was a pioneer in the industrialization of the Iberian Peninsula, becoming the first industrialised city in Spain.
In 1880, it began going through another decline. By 1893, its economic collapse forced it to close the La Constancia iron foundry. Accompanying the tale of woe, the sugar industry collapsed and the phylloxera blight devastated Malaga vineyards.
The early twentieth century was a period of unrest and struggles for political ideologies. In 1933, a military dictatorship was set up, with brutal consequences for the opposition. An estimated 17,000 to 20,000 citizens were murdered and buried in mass graves at the cemetery of San Rafael. Oddly enough, it was during the dictatorship that Malaga began experiencing an influx in tourism, beginning in the 1960's. The dictatorship ended with the election of a Spanish Socialist Worker's Party mayor, who remained in office until 1995, when the conservative Popular Party won the elections.
