Those photos are so gorgeous!ReplyDelete
When my husband first saw Adam last year on The Voice he asked me who the rocker guy was. I told him he sings some of the songs you like and could not believe that was the same guy that sang those songs. Funny how not knowing what someone looks like leads you to believe rocker with all the tattoos. I love the concept listen to the voice first then see the looks.ReplyDelete

momma's boy 2Mature
"Now, if you need anything don't hesitate to call. Your cell phone is in your bag and if that doesn't work you just come to the front office and they'll let you call. They know about some of the incidences and of course there is yesterday with Meir." She spoke with urgency and then she paused to reach out with her hands and hold my face in her small, delicate grasp. "I just want us to be happy Jun." She sounded so sad that it just broke my heart. I reached down and hugged her so tightly that I lifted her off the ground and she started to laugh. "Jun! Put me down!" I smiled widely and placed her on her feet before kissing her on the forehead.
"Don't worry; I'll try to make it work this time around, though I didn't get off on such a good impression yesterday." She smiled.
"Jun, you've never had true problems making friends, you're just really good at making enemies, like your Father." She gave me another hug and went back to the car and drove off while I sighed and headed into the school. Once there I was met by Wayne who had this cocky smirk on his face like he had caught me in a sticky situation and was going to tell everyone he could.
"So you're a Mama's boy?" He spoke the words as if they were a disgrace while I treated them like a prized possession.
"Yeah. You got a problem with it Wayne? 'Cause honestly I could care less. I love my Mom and I am certainly not afraid to admit it. Don't you?" He blinked at my question while I stared at him expectantly. When he didn't say anything I urged him on with my eyes until he finally spoke.
"What? You actually want me to answer?" I nodded and he grunted. "Yeah, I love my Mom." I smiled.

Hi Everybody!
In this blog post we are assuming you have deployed Internet Explorer as a Desktop or Published Application in your environment and encounter some abnormalities.
Some of the abnormalities may include the following configuration and symptoms:
- User logon account is configured to use mandatory user profile or hybrid when using citrix.
- User logs onto a new computer for the 1st time where a local or roaming profile is derived from default user profile.
- User logs onto a computer that would normally have cached profile which has been deleted by The "delete cached copies of roaming profiles" policy setting
- The "Delete user profiles older than a specified number of days on system startup" policy
- Explorer initialization delays during user logon – The iedkcs32.dll (Internet Explorer Maintenance) takes long time to initialize user profile, over 100 seconds
- Active Setup execution can delay the user logon operation.
One of the components that first executes when users logs in on windows is Active Setup. The Active Setup component registers shell32 dlls and installs stubs that configure desktop shortcuts, desktop themes, Internet Explorer, Windows Media Player, Windows Mail (Winmail) and msfeedssync.exe to mention a few.
Active Setup executes:
- The 1st time a user logs on to a computer and builds a new profile based on the default user profile. On subsequent logons when the locally cached or roaming profile does not contain active setup entries in the ntuser.dat file.
- Every time a user logs onto a computer with a mandatory user profile.
- Active Setup will execute the following commands:
"C:\Windows\SysWOW64\ie4uinit.exe" -UserIconConfig
"C:\Windows\System32\ie4uinit.exe" –BaseSettings
"C:\Windows\SysWOW64\ie4uinit.exe" –BaseSettings

"C:\Program Files\Windows Mail\WinMail.exe" OCInstallUserConfigOE
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Mail\WinMail.exe" OCInstallUserConfigOE
During the Active Setup execution the registry keys "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Active Setup\Installed Components\%APPNAME%" and "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Active Setup\Installed Components\%APPNAME%" are compared, and if the HKCU registry entries don't exist, or the version number of HKCU is less than HKLM, then the specified application is executed for the current user.
What tools can you us to help isolate these types of issues?
- Process Monitor can be use to help find out if you have missing registry entries for the users at logon. You may find a lot of Not Found entries when accessing the Zones registry key. You can also access the user's registry key remotely while connected as a domain or local administrator and navigate to the Zones key [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Zones] and compared the Zones 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 against a working client machine. If you are missing entries under any of these keys, your user profile was not able to fully created these settings during the first logon attempt. This will cause abnormal behavior when visiting internal or external websites or applications.
- Userenv verbose logging or winlogon etl tracing. These logs can help you find out if the profile is generating any errors and give you in off clues to find out what the problem is.
TIP: If you have encounter issues related to the items outlined in this blog post, consider using Procmon to help you validate the behavior. One of the first actions you can perform is to:
A: Run the C:\WINDOWS\system32\ie4uinit.exe -BaseSettings at login for the problematic user and see if this fixes any issues related to IE not loading properly when in TS publish application or full desktop scenario.(Note: You may also want to run the "C:\Windows\SysWOW64\ie4uinit.exe" –BaseSettings when using 64bit OSs.
B: Find out if the user profile is missing Zones registry keys. Importing these keys from a working profile can hel If you have IE Enhanced Security, try disabling both User and Administrator configuration. See blog post How to disable IE Enhanced Security on Windows 2003 & Windows 2008 Server silently?

Women Fuk A Little Boy
They say that eyes are the window to the soul. Some women, however, are just not blessed with big picture windows. Small eyes can be a problem if you want your eyes to stand out, but there are ways to solve the problem. The proper makeup techniques can help you make those small peepers pop.
The first place you will want to look in order to create bigger, bolder, and more expressive eyes is to your eyeliner. Eyeliner can be the cure to your small eye blues, but only if you use the correct techniques. First of all, you will want to line the entire top lash line and then extend that line slightly at the corners of your eye. If you like, you can also line the bottoms of your eyes, but make sure you concentrate color only on the outside third of the eye and extend is just slightly past the edge. Don't be too dramatic, but just a slight line beyond the outside edge will do the trick. Keep in mind that a soft and smoky look will open your eyes up more than thin hard lines of liner will. Use dark and neutral colors with just a little hint of black for lining, since bright shades are what will make your eyes look even smaller.
The other place to concentrate your eye enlargement efforts would be on your lashes. Eyelashes are a great eye opener. Before you ever apply mascara, you will want to curl your lashes three times: once at the base, another half way up, and a third time at the tip. This will help to create a gentle, rounded curl of your eyelash. Then, as you apply your mascara, take care to fan out your lashes as you go. Do so by brushing the inner third of your lashes toward your nose. Pull the middle third straight out. Then, take the outer third of your lashes and brush them toward your temples. By exaggerating your eyelashes in this manner, you will be able to draw attention to your eyes and help them to stand out. The more they stand out, the bigger they will appear to be.
Thirdly, look to your eye shadow. Use caution when doing so, however. Though it is a commonly held belief, dramatic eye shadow will not make your eyes stand out. The truth of the matter is, it will do just the opposite. Too much dramatic eye shadow will cause your eyes to shrink by shading them back into your face. If you do have small eyes, you will want to keep eye shadow really simple. Use only light-colored shadows first of all. Secondly, never wear more than two shades at one time. Remember, simplicity will be your friend here. Brush a light, subtle base color form your lashes to your brow. Next, use a slightly darker shade to create just a subtle definition in your eyelid's crease. By keeping your shadow simple and subtle, you can enhance your eyes and avoid hiding them on your face.
A fourth way to enhance your eyes is to work on the area around them. For instance, dark circles will make your eyes look even smaller than they are. If you have deep circles around your eyes, they can even make your eyes look sunken. To fix the problem, use a concealer that is just slightly lighter in the dark circle areas. By simply ridding yourself of the circles, you will be able to enhance your eyes.
Lastly, think about the shape of your eyebrows when trying to enhance your eyes. Your eyes will seem smaller and closer together if you have brows that are too close together or heavy. To help spread out your eyes and open them, tweeze your eyebrows further out than you might normally. If possible, it is best to get your eyebrows about an eye length apart if you can.
Large eyes may be a blessing, but small eyes are not a problem. By simply understanding where to concentrate your efforts, you make those small eyes pop and look great. Practice your makeup techniques and taking care of the skin around your eyes and you will find that opening and enlarging your eyes is easy and even a little bit fun

Beautifully captured and penned by award-winning biographer Robert Hillman, this is a compelling story of an exceptional yet 'ordinary' man whose generous spirit, natural leadership and desire for peace transcends enormous danger and heartbreak. The Rugmaker of Mazar-e-Sharif follows the extraordinary journey of Najaf Mazari from the despair of Afghanistan under the Taliban regime to the flowering of a new life in Australia. Unaware of the fragility of innocence in a country torn by civil war, Najaf describes his childhood working as a shepherd, an apprentice welder and, finally, finding his calling as an apprentice rugmaker. Family joy soon turns to tragedy as the war between the Russian forces and the Mujahedin violently thrusts its way into Najaf's life - first his elder brother is killed by a sniper, then his family home is destroyed by a stray rocket, killing both his younger brother and brother-in-law. Najaf, too, is badly wounded and is reduced to selling crotcheted socks on a street corner while his injuries slowly heal. Eventually returning to rugmaking, Najaf trains himself not to think too far into the future. In 2001, the adult Najaf is captured and tortured by the Taliban. He is forced to flee Afghanistan, leaving his wife and child behind to place his life in the hands of people-smugglers, bound for an unknown destination. Half way across the world in south-east Asia, Najaf and almost a hundred other refugees learn for the first time that they are bound for a country at the bottom of the world called 'Australia'...

This is an excellent read, and one that will open your eyes to the trouble and background of many legitimate refugees. To make you think about what Afghani refugees faced, and still do, and the spirit and courage it took to leave their well known life and livelihood, and family, to travel to an unknown land for safety, and to start all over again, makes you understand a little of their plight.

OK, I'm gonna sound like an absolute novice here, (which I won't deny I pretty much am one )..
I've tried scouring the net for simple straight forward steps for my model but (surprisingly) haven't found much, either different model or talks about taking out the whole unit or other.. anyway..
Changing a headlight bulb (passenger-side, outer bulb) on a 1996 3 series. I'm assuming (hoping) you don't have to take the whole headlamp unit out(?), I got the rear plastic cover off to expose the half-sphere shaped piece which looks like the rear of the lens unit - its this bit I can't quite work out. Is it this whole piece which has to come off, or just the plastic 'cap' bit which plugs into the half-sphere piece? I did try twisting this plastic cap bit but didn't want to twist too hard for obvious reasons, not knowing this was the correct thing to do.
Any help appreciated..!.

Fed officials see June rate hike as unlikely: minutes
By Michael Flaherty and Howard Schneider
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Federal Reserve officials believed it would be premature to hike interest rates in June even though most felt the U.S. economy was set to rebound from a dismal start to the year, according to minutes from their April policy meeting released on Wednesday.
The central bank debated whether a slew of disappointing data, including weak consumer spending, signaled a temporary slump or evidence of a longer-lasting slowdown, with most participants agreeing economic growth would climb to a healthier pace and the labor market would strengthen.
The U.S. economy grew an anemic 0.2 percent in the first quarter, according to the most recent government data.
The minutes from the April 28-29 policy-setting committee meeting also highlighted the quandary the Fed faces in trying to avoid the market volatility tied to a rate hike while sticking to its meeting-by-meeting guidance on when that move will come.
With an increased amount of uncertainty and signs of softness across the economy, the minutes showed Fed officials pushing the prospect of a rate hike later into the year.
"Many participants, however, thought it unlikely that the data available in June would provide sufficient confirmation that the conditions for raising (interest rates) had been satisfied ...," the minutes said.
U.S. Treasury prices were largely unchanged after the release of the minutes, while short-term interest rate futures and TIPS inflation break-even rates held firm, as did stocks.
Fed officials flagged a number of concerns including disappointment that falling oil prices did not spur consumer spending as much as had been hoped. They also cited economic worries in China and Greece. Continued...

The role of community-based wild resource management in Zimbabwe

Wildlife was in decline in Zimbabwe while the resource was being managed centrally by the State in terms of conventional protectionist legislation. The legislation was changed in 1960 and this led to cautious institutional reforms, whereby responsibility for wildlife was gradually devolved to landholders who were encouraged to use it profitably. This was achieved without the State abrogating its ultimate responsibility for the wellbeing of the resource.
The CAMPFIRE programme was a response to the particular requirements of communally managed wild resources. Successful implementation required that appropriate institutions were in place. These allowed the peasants a meaningful say in the management of their wildlife and permitted them to use it profitably to generate a sufficient incentive to persuade them to conserve the resource on their land. As on large-scale commercial ranches, socio-economic factors proved more significant than ecological considerations in preserving wildlife on communally occupied land that is representative of much of Africa and the Third World.

More of us travel for pleasure than ever before, yet the social scientific literature on tourism is relatively scant. This book provides an original contribution to the field of tourist studies. The contributors to International Tourism reconceptualize the local and the global, avoiding such crude oppositions as centre v periphery, modern v traditional, macro v micro and North v South. Instead, they demonstrate that the local cannot be understood without the global, and that the global can never be isolated from the regional setting within which it operates.

(NYSE:BR) today announced that Broadridge's Securities Processing Solutions Fixed Income Division has expanded its ClearanceProSM processing capabilities to integrate with CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. (CDS), Canada's national securities depository, clearing and settlement hub. ClearancePro's integration with CDS enables subscribers to eliminate the use of manual tickets and fully process all CDSX-eligible trades entered into any trade processing solution and process them directly through CDS for clearance and settlement.
This streamlined approach offers banks the ability to identify exceptions earlier in the day, reducing trade fail risks and boosting operational efficiency. The new capability provides the only end-to-end clearance and settlement solution from trade capture to clearance and settlement offered in Canada for broker-dealers and banks.
ClearancePro is a robust message processing product suite that provides extensive real-time exception management and data mining tools for complex clearance and settlement of fixed income trades. With ClearancePro, managers rely less on the CDS terminal, thereby vastly improving on-demand front-/middle-office reporting capabilities.
"ClearancePro's connection with CDS enables Broadridge to deliver to clients a greater range of real-time, straight-through-processing functionality," said Mike Hopkins, President, Securities Processing Solutions Fixed Income, Broadridge. "Broadridge's expanded fixed income processing platform can help banks and brokerage firms more effectively manage risk while they focus on expanding their business."
When firms outsource to Broadridge through a business process outsourcing (BPO) or hosted model, firms can cost-effectively expand and transform their businesses. With Broadridge's scalable platform they can go to market with new fixed income capabilities quicker, manage risk more effectively and support regulatory reporting requirements more easily.
The Broadridge fixed income platform processes over $4.0 trillion in fixed income trades per day of United States (U.S.) and Canadian securities. Broadridge is the partner of choice for 13 of the 20 fixed income primary dealers designated by the Federal Reserve Bank that outsource their processing and reporting functions.

Car registrations just got more expensive By DENISE DZIUK Staff Writer Comal County residents registering their vehicles next year will notice a S2.50 increase, which is expected to generate thousands of extra dollars for the maintenance of county roads. Comal County Tax Assessor and Collector Gloria Clennan said the fee is being increased from $7.50 to SIO, which is the maximum that can be charged. Most counties in the state are already charging the maximum rate, and Comal was among the nine counties still charging $7.50, she said. "Most counties are already charging the $10, and I'm sure the rest will soon change their fees also," said Clennan. Hie higher fee, which will be reflected on the 1996 bills, is expected to generate between $130,000-150,000 in additional funds. Of these funds, three percent is sent to the Texas Department of Transportation. The remaining 97 percent is kept in the county, and is designated for the sole use of maintaining the county's roads and bridges, Clennan said. "It's a good tax, I think. Everyone 'Most counties are already charging the $10, and I'm sure the rest will soon change their fees also.'— Gloria Clennan has to pay it and 97 percent is reserved for the county's use and can't be used for anything but the roads and bridges. Any time you can keep 97 percent of a tax in the county, it has to be somewhat of a good tax," said Clennan. "And we really do have good roads." The county commissioners had until September I to set a fee,. However, the $10 fee was passed at Thursday's Commissioners Court meeting. Clennan said she recommended the increase, but would have been satisfied with whatever fee the county set. "It was their call. I was just telling them how much they are allowed to charge," she said. In other court business, the attempt to purchase IO Eagle Precinct Voting Machines moved a little closer to real ity- The county's purchasing agent informed the court that the agreement with several other counties did qualify as a sole source, which means the county does not need to get bids. The price for the machines has not been finalized. However, the funds to pay for them will come from the records preservation fund already established in the county's budget. The Commissioners Court also passed a resolution supporting efforts to pass a Constitutional amendment to ban burning the United States flag.

New Braunfels Herald -I MOU 10/22/'9, ■410 _ ; npUBL I SHI blG SO-WEST nlCROFUBUi 2627 E YANDELL DK —FL PASO, DX 7990* 18 Pages in two sections ■ Friday, July 21,1995 Serving Comal County for more than 143 years ■ Home of KEN LAIN River flow likely to drop after one more weekend By DENISE DZIUK Staff Writer Blood Sucking Turkey Chili and more on tap at KISS chili cook-off Vol. 143, No. 180 With the summer temperatures continuing to hover near the century marie, many people will be looking for a place to cool off this week, and the rivers may be the ideal place. Many campgrounds are already beginning to fill up with weekend tourists. Zero Rivers, owner of Rockin 'R' River Rides, said this weekend will simply be "another great day in paradise." The release rate this week will remain around 400 cubic feet per second. However, Rivers said the river will actually be running faster than that due to several springs that are still running. He said the actual river rate should be around 440-450 cfs in some sections. Rivers said he floated down the river yesterday and it looked great. He said the overall area looked clean and he was able to go all the way down the river without getting hung up. "The river looked better than the road I drove back on. It's going to be a real, real good weekend," he said. Tommy Hill, Chief Engineer for the Guadalupc-Blanco River Authority, said the current reservoir level is at 909.7 ft. According to the Canyon Reservoir management plan, the GBRA is responsible for releasing water from the 'conservation pool' at or below 909 feet mean sea level (msl). Water in the 'flood pool,' which is water above 909 msl, is the responsibility of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Tuber drowns Man could not swim and was not wearing a lifejacket, witnesses say Submitting your chili for the approval of CASI is no laughing matter, Ingraham said. The rules of competition are stiff. Chili must be made from scratch with raw meat, using "chili grind" only. Commercial chili powders are OK, but no commercial spice mixes. No fillers, such as beans, macaroni or rice are allowed. And the list of rules goes on Chili cooks may be required to remove the lid and eat some chili before turning the entry in — this guards against harmful ingredients being put in the chili by entrants, Ingraham said. The KISS-off will have water balloons and face painting for kids. The schedule follows: 11 a.m. — sign in noon — sampling starts 1 to 2 p m. — showmanship 2 p.m. — turn in chili 2 to 3:30—judging 4 p.m. — awards Individuals or businesses can enter the cookoff, as long as they follow the CASI rules, Ingra ham said. Several individual families participate in the event, she said. Each team pays $15 to enter, $14 of which goes directly to KISS. "It's the best fund-raiser in terms of percentage that we have," Ingraham said. By SUSAN FLYNT ENGLAND Staff Writer The Guadalupe River claimed another victim Wednesday afternoon. Arterruo Escobar, 21, of San Antonio drowned when his tube overturned near the Guadalupe River State Park. Escobar and a female friend were tubing on the river when their tube overturned at about 4 p.m. and they went under, Comal County Sheriffs Chief Deputy Ellwood Hoherz said. The woman surfaced but the man never did. The San Marcos Dive Team recovered the body at 7:15 p.m. about six feet from where the tube overturned. Escobar was pronounced dead at 8 p.m. by Precinct 3 Justice of the Peace Fred Stewart, Hoherz said. Escobar did not know how to swim, nor was he wearing a life jacket, according to witnesses.

By SUSAN FLYNT ENGLAND Staff Writer and is released at rates high enough to clear the flood pool. Hill said that the GBRA will have to evaluate the reservoir level after the weekend and may have to cut it back. He said it could possibly be within the 200 cfs range by next weekend. "By next week, we should have a better feel of if we arc going to have to cut back more, and if so, how much," Hill said. Hill said that even at the current rate, the river level is still good for tourism. He said there are different types of tourists and someone will always be able to enjoy the river. "You still get a lot of family oriented recreation with kids because it's a little safer level," Hill said. Rivers said low levels do not really have the big effect on the tubing and rafting everyone says it does. He said you can still go rafting and tubing. The only difference is that you take the tourists to different sections of the river where the level is still good. "When the Whitewater sections get low, you just change locations...You can always float," he said. Herald-Zeitung photo by MICHAEL DARNALL Spurs star makes local appearance Former Spurs great George Gervin was at the Bear Creek Treatment Center yesterday signing autographs for the kids. Gervin and Johnny Moore will deliver an anti-drug and stay in school message at another local appearance Monday at noon at the New Braunfels High School gym. The basketball clinic will be free and open to the public. Blood Sucking Turkey Chili, King James and the Misfits Chili, Broken Date Chili — these are a few of the 50-some varieties of chili offered at the Second Annual Chili Kiss-Off in Canyon Lake tomorrow. The cook-off will be held at Fire Station Number I in Canyon City on FM 306, said organizer P.C. "Cricket" Ingraham. Proceeds from the spicy event benefit Kids in Safe Surroundings. KISS's ultimate goal is to build a recreation center. The target time for groundbreaking is 1996, Ingraham said. This is serious chili, Ingraham said. "This is a CASI (Chili Appreciation Society International) sanctioned event," she said. Contestants earn points toward winning the ultimate CASI chili crown. Watching the chili cooks' showmanship and sampling their chili doesn't cost a thing, she said. Each team donates chili for sampling by guests. Chili teams are graded on showmanship as well as the quality of their chili, Ingraham said. "While the chili is cooking they compete on showmanship," she said. "Some people do skits, some do dancing, some sing."'River pirates' need to become a thing of the past. See Page * \ J ;

Pitching Distaff
That oversize place everybody keeps calling BOB and its snaky home team may get all the press, but they ain't the only game in town. For a solid season before the Diamondbacks came along, we have had an unsung team chock-full of local athletes playing pro ball for a small but dedicated group of local fans. The Arizona Peppers are the local representatives from LPB (Ladies Professional Baseball), and they're ready to start year two. The season kicks off in their new home at Scottsdale Stadium on Thursday, July 9, with the start of a five-game series against the defending league champs, the San Jose Spitfires.
If you haven't heard of "your Arizona Peppers," you aren't alone--they may just be the best-kept secret in local sports. Last year all the baseball talk centered on the birth of the D-Backs, while all the women's sports fans had their eyes on the Mercury. The small (four-team) league was easily overlooked during its inaugural season at Phoenix Municipal Stadium. But this year, looking to expand its audience, the league has made some changes.
Now there are six teams, stretching all the way to the East Coast. The local women are joined by the Long Beach Aces, the Buffalo Nighthawks, New Jersey's Diamonds, the Florida Legends and the aforementioned champs, the Spitfires. This year's schedule consists of 56 match-ups, divided into 14 series, usually of four games each. After the season-opening stand against San Jose, the women hit the road until mid-August, when Long Beach comes to town. Games continue through late September, so there are plenty of opportunities to catch the Peppers in action.
Last season was a bit rocky for LPB. Mostly because of a lack of publicity, crowds were sparse. The Peppers actually had the league's highest average attendance, game after game. Opening day drew 750 fans, and subsequent games averaged about 150.

TicketsTue., Jun. 27, 6:40pm
Experienced sports nuts and newbies alike will have a great time. Your humble correspondent, the anti-sports grump of all time, had to be dragged kicking and screaming to the first game. But on opening day, a fan was born. Within 20 minutes I was losing my voice from cheering and yelling "slide" and cursing out the ump. Somehow I found myself back at the stadium a half-dozen times before the season was out. This is a classic cheap date: Ticket prices range from $4 to a whopping $8.75. Even with a hot dog and a Coke, it's still cheaper than a night at the local multiplex.
Don't get the idea that this is some cute little "girly" game played by adorable moppets in skirts. It's real, by-the-books baseball played with skill and enthusiasm. The teammates all have the zeal of true believers, and it's infectious. These players are in it for love of the game, not for the big bucks--the salaries are way below an MLB rookie's starting wages.
Last year saw the team off to a shaky start: nine wins and 19 losses. But as those overpaid Diamondbacks keep pointing out, that's what first years are for. This year's bench includes nine seasoned vets and a bunch of eager new recruits. One of those new faces, All-American Leah Cochrane from the University of Arizona, will be slipping on the catcher's mitt. Last year's crowd favorite, Christina DeLuca, handles the mound chores again. And unlike itinerant big leaguers with no local loyalty, most of the Peppers are actual Valley natives--Phoenix, Gilbert, Tempe, Mesa and Chandler are all represented. For variety, a couple of ringers from California also made it onto the roster. But that oversight can be forgiven.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Afternoon Line

...there's a reasonable limit to patience, and taking patience for granted in a day and age of entertainment-overload and rapidly decreasing attention-spans is a dangerous, dangerous game. To say nothing of it being a slap to the face to the very people pouring the money into the pie that's being squabbled over.
It certainly wasn't surprising to discover that the NHL had the stomach to take us all down this hole for a third time in 18 years. And, given the amount of money involved, it also wasn't surprising to see the representatives of each camp digging and reinforcing trench-line for a potentially long and protracted fight.
But it's been very surprising to see the degree to which fan interest has, yet again, been taken completely for granted.
How that fact plays outside of Canada, in less traditional hockey markets, will go a long way to determining the relative value and worth eventually extracted from this latest NHL lockout.

Modify REM eligibility to allow greater service to people in critical need.
The Department of Health and Mental Hygiene's (DHMH) Rare and Expensive Case Management (REM) Program was designed to provide specialized health care services to low-income individuals with rare and expensive-to-treat illnesses, who qualify for Medicaid. However, under current DHMH regulations, Maryland residents who qualify medically and financially for REM benefits—and for Medicare—are being denied those benefits if they receive Medicare benefits.
Medicare does not cover the kind of health care services REM is designed to provide. As a result, these seriously disabled Marylanders are without the critical assistance the REM program is intended to give them, a situation that gravely threatens their well-being and their family's financial security.
Dustin who is critically ill (ventilator dependent), qualifies both medically and financially for REM but has been denied benefits because of "Medicare conflicts." In essence, because he worked, earned wages, and paid Medicare and Social Security taxes, he is ineligible for the one government program that can provide the in-home nursing care he requires. Instead, his mother faces the very real prospect of having to quit her job to care for him, which would cause significant hardship for the family.
We are asking the State of Maryland to:
1) immediately provide REM benefits to individuals who qualify both medically and financially for them but have been denied benefits because of the "Medicare conflicts";
2) strengthen coordination and communication among Maryland's health care agencies so that patients and families have full and convenient access to information about assistance programs and the regulations governing them; and
3) review and modify, as appropriate, Maryland programs such as the Living at Home Waiver, the Medicaid Institutional Requirement, and the Developmental Disability Waiver to make them more accessible and useful to those in need of home health services.

LabOne Highlights
What's New?
With every new release of LabOne a range of additional functionality expands your Instrument's capabilities even further while maintaining the highest quality standards you have come to associate with Zurich Instruments. This page summarizes some of the most recent highlights.
Imaging with Software Trigger
The imaging mode converts any of the measurement signals into images and provides
- A clear definition of a "line", based on a starting event detected by the line trigger and a user-defined duration.
- The resampling of the recorded data samples to the required number of pixels with a suitable interpolation and/or averaging.
- To store the matrix-like data in a grid data structure, based on the number of lines defined.
All this is now implemented in the LabOne Software Trigger module and available in the user interface as well as on the programming interfaces (API). With the power to stream up to a sustainable 800 kSa/s over multiple channels in a triggered fashion (depending on product category), the LabOne server architecture is strong in data acquisition capability, even video rate (512*512 pixel/s) would still be well below the transfer rate limit.
Graphical Lock-in Tab - Functional Block Diagram
File Manager
LabOne APIs
- LabVIEW: support of Apple OSX
- LabVIEW: support of Sweeper, Spectrum Analyzer and PID Advisor modules
- C: support for Sweeper, Software Trigger, PID Advisor and Spectrum modules
Updating to the latest release is free of charge for all customers. Please check the release notes and the LabOne compatibility page before installing the software.

Coming Home
In this story you see the home life of a boy named Jonothan. You will also see how it effects his life on the outside world; if there is one.
Jonothan tried to sneak in the back door only to find his mother waiting impatiently there for him. Her look was enough, the question plain. "What? I'm late. So what?" Jonothan asked in an attempt to avoid his mother's piercing gaze. "You promised to be back at four so we could get your hair cut before He gets back. Did you forget?" "Yeah, sorry" Jonothan lied "Now, can I have a snack?" He asked in an attempt to change the subject.
Jonothan could see the lie written all over his face like, but she let it slide. "There are some biscuits in that container on the table. Now tomorrow I expect you to be here so we can get your hair done alright?" "Can't." Jonothan replied through a mouthful of biscuit. "We're going on an excursion tomorrow." Jonothan produced a well crumpled note from his pocket and handed it to his mother. All without taking a break from stuffing his face. "You have to sign this."
Somehow his mother understood everything that jonothan had just said and took the note from him to sign with a sigh. However before she could do this the phone rang. "Hello? Oh hi Luke how are you? You want to speak to Jonothan? Sure I'll put him on." Jonothan quickly snatched the handset from his mother before she could find some way to embarrass him in front od his best friend. "Hi Luke! What's up?" Jonothan was grinning at hearing from his friend.
In the background, his mother smiled a secret smile. Something seen very rarely in that household. She then signed the permission form and left.

Tolstoy: Sebastopol in May and Sebastopol in December
€ 21,99
Lieferbar innert 2 Wochen
April 2013
BeschreibungThe three 'Sebastopol Stories' were based on Tolstoy's experience as a serving solider in the besieged Crimean city in 1854 and 1855. First published in book form in 1856, they consolidated the reputation the young Tolstoy had established with "Childhood "(1852).In "Sebastopol in December," cast in the form of a guided tour of the city, Tolstoy chronicles both the patient suffering and the undemonstrative heroism of the city's defenders and civilian population. "Sebastopol in May" focuses on the officer class, particularly the vacillating Mikhailov and the doomed Praskukhin, the description of whose death is one of the most celebrated passages in Russian literature. In these stories Tolstoy's anti-war stance, so important in "War and Peace" and his later non-fictional works, is already clearly delineated. (The third story, "Sebastopol in August," is not included in this edition.)

wikiHow to Clean an English Leather Saddle
Three Parts:Cleaning Your SaddleConditioning Your SaddlePreparing Your Supplies and Cleaning ScheduleCommunity Q&A
Keeping a leather saddle clean and moisturized is a vital part of caring for your tack. A clean saddle not only looks better, but will last longer and better resist environmental damage. Clean your saddle regularly, and use a proper conditioner to keep the leather from getting brittle and deteriorating. That way, you will get the best performance from your saddle for as long as you have it.
Part 1
Cleaning Your Saddle
1Stabilize your saddle. Put your saddle on a sawhorse, saddle rack, or something similar to hold it up while you clean it. This keeps your saddle stable and easy to adjust while you clean.
- Once your saddle is stable, remove any add-ons such as stirrups. These should be cleaned separately.
2Dust your saddle. Getting loose dirt off before wetting your saddle makes the rest of the cleaning faster and easier. Use a dry cloth to remove any loose dirt and dust before wetting your saddle.[1]
- Avoid grinding dirt into the saddle while dusting. Use a gentle hand to swipe over the surface of the saddle.
- Be sure to use a clean cloth or towel with nothing on it.
3Prepare a lather. Dip your sponge into the bucket of warm water. Gently wring it out and lather it up with saddle soap.
- Be sure the sponge is damp enough to create your lather, but not dripping wet. Excess water may cause the leather to dry slowly and could lead to warping or distortion.
4Soap your saddle. Place the soaped sponge on the saddle and rub vigorously in small circular motions. Cover the entire smooth leather surface of the saddle, including the underside and beneath flaps.[2]
- Avoid suede or rough areas of the saddle.
- Rinse out your sponge and re-lather it with soap any time the sponge starts to dry or becomes too dirty.
5Rinse the saddle. Use a clean, damp sponge or a damp towel to wipe off any excess soap. Rinse the sponge or towel and repeat until all soap residue is gone .
- Pay close attention to folds and seams on your saddle. Use a toothbrush or cotton swab to remove soap residue from tight areas.
6Dry your saddle. Use a dry towel to wipe away any excess water. Then, allow your saddle to dry naturally before conditioning.
- Keep your saddle out of direct sunlight while it drys, and do not apply any direct heat such as a blow dryer.
- Let your saddle dry most of the way before conditioning, but try to condition before it is completely dry. You do not want your saddle to feel moist when you condition, but it should still be cool to the touch.
Part 2
Conditioning Your Saddle
1Condition the smooth leather. Use a soft towel to apply a light layer of conditioner or oil over the entirety of the saddle. Allow the conditioner to absorb into the saddle for one hour.[3]
- Use a purpose-made leather conditioning cream or neatsfoot oil to condition the saddle. Avoid products that are petroleum-based, as they could dry out the leather.
- Re-apply oil or cream to your towel as necessary to ensure even coverage. Uneven coverage may cause discoloration.
2Condition any rawhide areas. If your saddle has any rawhide elements, condition them separately. Use a conditioning cream meant especially for rawhide.
- Using regular leather conditioner on rawhide may deteriorate the fibers of the rawhide faster.
3Remove excess conditioner. Use a soft, dry towel to remove any excess oil or cream. Then, buff your saddle with a smooth cloth to give it a nice finish.
- Once your saddle has been buffed, it is clean and ready for use.
Part 3
Preparing Your Supplies and Cleaning Schedule
1Decide if it is time to clean your saddle. How often you need to clean your saddle will depend on how often you ride, as well as the type of riding you do. Make sure your saddle is getting cleaned regularly, but not so much that it dries out or damages the leather.
- If you ride daily, you may need to clean your saddle every two to three months.
- If you ride once a week or less, your saddle may only require cleaning twice a year.
- If you ride in environments where the saddle is frequently exposed to dirt, mud, salt, or sweat, you will want to clean your saddle whenever it gets noticeably dirty or starts to feel brittle.
- If you are about to store your saddle for a long stretch, such as a full season, clean and condition it before you store.
2Check with the manufacturer. Every leather is a little different, and saddles differ from maker to maker. That is why it is a good idea to check with your saddle's manufacturer to see what they recommend for your particular saddle.[4]
- Check any printed materials that your manufacturer may have provided to look for recommended products, as well as products that might damage the leather.
- If you are unsure about a product, call the manufacturer directly to ask, "Will this damage your leather saddles?"
3Gather your supplies. Your saddle should be conditioned soon after it is cleaned. Make sure you have everything you need to fully clean and moisturize your saddle. You will need:
- A bucket of water
- Towels
- Sponges
- A bristle brush
- Saddle soap
- Leather Cleaner
- Leather conditioner or neatsfoot oil
Community Q&A
I use neatsfoot saddle oil and it seems to make my saddle matt. Why is this?wikiHow ContributorA number of factors may contribute to why conditioning your saddle gives it a matte finish. Leather that is overly-dry may not be as lusterous. Treatments applied to your saddle when it was made may also impact the finish. If you are using a neatsfoot oil product that is not 100% neatsfoot oil, this may also change the finish after conditioning. Make sure you remove all excess oil and buff your saddle fully for the best finish. Contact your saddle manufacturer to find out about what treatments may have been used on your saddle and to verify that neatsfoot oil is a proper conditioner for your particular saddle.

If this question (or a similar one) is answered twice in this section, please click here to let us know.
- Old toothbrushes are great for scrubbing hard to clean areas of the saddle, such as where the cantle meets the panel, or underneath the skirt.
- If you apply the conditioner/oil while the leather is still slightly damp, the leather will absorb it better.
- Do not put leather dressing or neatsfoot oil on synthetic saddles, because they will rot.
- Overusing neatsfoot oil can cause stitching to rot. Use oil only once or twice a year, and try leather conditioning cream in between oil application.

As a youngster, I didn't care where the roadside "tiger" daylilies came
from. I just enjoyed their happy appearance, literally in ditches all up
and down the two main roads in the community.
Now I am looking at botanical names and it is really confusing. I may have
two that look identical to me, but whoever labeled them had completely
different names for the pair. Harking back to the younger days, knowing I'm
not great hybridizer, I'm just enjoying their happy appearances.
