Intercoastal around Florida
I am leaving the ruins of pahokee 11/1 monday headed for a slip in boynton.my boat is one of ten that survived the hurricane jeanne.the entire marina was destroyed.I will be motoring my 30 foot sloop the entire way as the mast is not stepped.its about 80 n.miles to where I am going and plan on stopping the first nite at the park by the st.lucie lock.I will let you know about visible obstructions and debris but I imagine there will be more unseen below the surface
Intercoastal around Florida
We lived in Florida and caught a direct- and I do mean direct- hit from Charley and we caught some of Frances and Jeanne. We have moved and are presently in Georgia.
The reports that I seen advises care if you''re using the ICW from Venice south through Ft. Meyers. There my be debris and actually some sunken boats that may be a hazard. On the East coast, the problem is even more severe.
The advice doesn''t say not to use the ICW, just be careful if you do.
Intercoastal around Florida
Just got back from that area 2 weeks ago. No problems transiting the ICW proper. Nice anchorages headed south at the north end of Longboat Key, Sarasota, and free (18 Hour) dock at the Venice Yacht Club. Cabbage Key, Useppa, Captiva, ands Sanibel still have clean up going on and some limited facilities after the Eye of Charlie passed right over.
Can''t comment on the "Ditch". Hopefully someone will comment further. I recall reading that the max mast height is restricted to 45 - 50ft(?) due to fixed bridges. You could always step the mast and save quite a few miles of travel. But then you''d miss the MASSIVE swarms of mosquitoes at Little Shark River in the Everglades. STAY CLEAR!!!
Skipper Bob has an anchorage guide for the entire ICW from Tarpon Springs thru the Keys and up to I believe Virginia. Well worth the $16.(Not a paid advertisement).
Why are you headed to the Chesapeake now? Or is this planned for spring? Enjoy the best time of the year now in Florida. Plus no hurricanes!

Rats. I meant CAPTIVA. Phooey. I''ve never even seen Catalina. Okey doke.
Intercoastal around Florida
I have recently been considering spending some time in the Chesapeake Bay and am presently in the Tampa area. Thinking I might travel south to Ft. Myers brings me concerns about the ditch. I heard Catalina got skewered by Charlie and my thoughts are the part of the island now resides firmly in the Intercoastal Mud Flats behind the Island Fragments.
Does anyone have any up-to-date knowledge of the Intercoastal from here to Fty. Myers?
Next, is the Caloosahatchee clear for five feet of draft to the east coast?
And Last, both francis? and jean? (forgot the names - probably means something psycological that I don''t want to investigate) crossed the East Coast Intercoastal VERY close to each other. How is the Waterway over there? Anyone know?
Thanks for taking the time to read this.
Happy sailing to all.

Sure enough, about 1/4 mile further on I caught up with the BMW, and it was stuck in the side of a Mercedes that also tried to jump out onto the shoulder, right in front of the speeding Beemer!. Priceless! I was still laughing when I got the rest of the way home.

Craft Leads Buckeyes To Big Win
By Matt McCoy
To listen to Thad Matta following Ohio State's 68-60 win over Michigan State click HERE:
When Ohio State lost 59-56 at Michigan State last month, Aaron Craft scored only five points on 2-for-8 shooting. Five of his eight shots were three pointers. In the rematch, the junior point guard changed his strategy.
Slicing through the Spartan defense with aggressive drives to the basket, Craft scored a career high 21 points as the Buckeyes beat the No. 4 Spartans 68-60.
"We saw some things we thought we could take advantage of," said Craft, who finished 7-for-12 from the floor and 7-for-8 from the free throw line. "In the first game, I don't think we did a great job of challenging their bigs a little bit in the pick-and-roll and things down the floor. It also helps when guys are knocking down shots from the outside...it opens lanes up and we made some lay-ups today."
Craft did most of his damage in the second half, when he scored 17 points. The Buckeyes, who trailed by six at the break, shot 57 percent after halftime and scored 43 points--their highest scoring half of the Big Ten season.
"Give Aaron Craft credit. In the second half he tore us apart," Michigan State coach Tom Izzo said. "He beat us every way you could beat us."
For most of the season, Buckeye fans have been hoping Craft...or anyone...would step up and become a viable second scoring option to compliment Deshaun Thomas. Whether Craft can have success getting to the basket and scoring every game remains to be seen but it was a welcome sight against the Spartans.
"The reads he was making today were incredible," Coach Thad Matta said. "His teammates helped him too...we had much better spacing than we normally have. It was great to see the ball going in for him and him attacking the rim. I thought he was tremendous today."
Tony's Take
We have basketball Bucksline Monday night from 7-8 P.M. with 610 WTVN basketball analyst Tony White. He joined Joel Riley Monday morning to talk about the Buckeye win over Michigan State.
"In the second half Ohio State's defense revved up and they started making shots," Tony said. "They were terrible in the first half in terms of shooting (10-29, 34%)...but in the second half Ohio State's defense got them extra opportunties and then they made those shots...and Aaron Craft was dynamic getting to the rim."

i came across this article on arabtimes online and it took me at least 35 years back - when i was a kid, i used to think of 18-year-old people as being old, of course when you're a kid everything is relative - then when i reached 18 i raised the bar a notch and i started thinking of 30-year-old people as being old and wondered where i would at 30 - when i reached 30 started looking at 50-year-old people and think of them as old people! i am not 50 yet, i still have a few years to go but i no longer think of 50-year-old people as being old - today , old for me means above 70 years and sometimes even more.
the writer of this article referred to a 50-year-old lady as being an old woman and this struck me as an unfair judgment - maybe the writer is quite young, but again how young is young?


text: Agents, state ready to help with ACA confusion By Caitlin Cook October 12, 2013 Story Share CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Melissa Menon, accounting manager for Home Base Inc., said the company wanted to provide its employees with access to a health insurance agent to help employees navigate West Virginia's health-care marketplace."I think there is a lot of confusion out there," Menon said of the open enrollment that kicked off Oct. 1 under the Affordable Care Act.Open enrollment continues through March, and Menon wants employees of Home Base, a social service agency, to have their questions answered on what health-care plan fits them best. The company sought help from a Charleston-area health insurance agent who, like many agents, have been preparing for the ACA since it was signed into law."There are so many different facets of each policy," Menon said. "We do want to take care of our employees, and that is a valuable tool for them."Ryan Fitzer, an agent with Garlow Insurance Agency, started preparing to help his clients with the ACA three years ago."It's a complicated law, and I wanted to make sure I am helping the businesses and individuals I work with as best as I can," Fitzer said.Menon asked Fitzer to take calls, emails, hold meetings online and attend meetings in-person around Home Base's offices in the state for employees to talk with Fitzer about health-care coverage. Home Base employs about 95 people, many of whom are part-time workers, and for the first time will have access to health-care coverage."There are some wonderful things in it that can really help people, if it works," Fitzer said of the law. "Let's hope it does everything it is supposed to, because we need help."Fitzer, along with other local insurance agents, like Joseph Deacon III of Deacon and Deacon, completed course work with the National Association of Health Underwriters' new professional-development course on the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.That's in addition to federally facilitated marketplace training required for brokers and agents to assist consumers in selecting health plans and enrolling through the marketplace. The 10-hour courses with NAHU are approved in all 50 states and cover topics such as implementing health-care reform, self-insured plans and health insurance exchanges for individuals and small employers.Deacon worked with NAHU to make sure he knew the ins and outs of the law before the market opened."There are a lot of ramifications coming down the road," Deacon said, "and you have to be prepared to advise your clients."The week the marketplace opened, Deacon had about 50 new clients reaching out for assistance. "There have been a lot of people to try and respond to," Deacon said. "I think that, next week or the week after, we should be able to start helping people a little bit more."Both agents agreed that it's nice to know a consumer will be dealing with the same agent consistently and added that prices are the same regardless of if consumers enroll with an insurance agent or individually.Consumers also may find in-person "assisters" at state Department of Health and Human Resource offices."The in-person assisters have been in training [last] week," said Jeremiah Samples, assistant to DHHR Secretary Karen Bowling. "Our local offices have brochures to assist customers as they call or walk in to our local offices to apply."Samples added that federal navigators are available at various locations and federally qualified health centers received federal funding to assist consumers.To obtain help from a certified assister through the state, consumers may visit https://localhelp.healthcare.gov, or call 1-800-318-2596.

How is a tummy tuck performed?A tummy tuck may be performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation. The duration of the procedure depends on the patient's condition and the extent of work that is necessary to achieve desired results. Some patients may opt for a mini or partial tummy tuck, which is a less extensive surgery and takes less time to perform.
The surgeon pre-plans the incisions that will be required to remove excess skin and tighten the muscles around the abdomen. A mini tummy tuck involves a small incision made below the navel area. On the other hand, a full tummy tuck may involve a circumferential incision to remove excess skin from the entire hip region, including the back.
An experienced surgeon will decide the position of the incisions carefully so that the resulting scars are hidden as far as possible. The positioning of the scars may be discussed with the patient prior to the procedure to produce the desired results.
A full tummy tuck procedure will almost always involve altering the position of the navel so that the abdomen appears more natural after the skin is tightened and the procedure is completed. The repositioning of the navel requires surgical expertise to do it perfectly. Therefore, it is advisable to have this procedure performed by an experienced plastic surgeon only.
Once the incisions are made, the surgeon will also pull together the sagging muscles and stitch them in a way that the abdomen achieves a more toned look. The waistline also becomes considerably narrower due to this muscle tightening.
Once the abdominal muscles have been tightened, the skin is stretched downward, and excess skin is excised. In some cases, liposuction may be used to remove excess fat deposits before the skin is tightened. When the procedure is completed, the surgeon will close the incisions by suturing the skin with surgical stitches.

Dr. Kwan is by far the most talented surgeon I have EVER crossed paths with. I came to Dr. Kwan after an under eye fat transplant, performed 'by another' plastic surgeon, which deformed my face. It was only until I was under Dr.Kwan's care that the deformity was corrected. Dr. Kwan literally gave me back my beauty. This was a priceless feeling. That was about 4 years ago, I can assure you ever since- Dr. Kwan is the ONLY plastic surgeon I trust my face and body to. I look forward to my body contouring procedure coming up in a few weeks!! :)

The staff treated me very kindly, with respect and genuine smiles. Dr Kwan is a real professional in my opinion. He took the time to listen to my story, addressed my concerns and took his time to walk me through the process and give me his opinion and explanation on his recommendation. I had my surgery in his practice and we went over everything again before I met up with the anesthesiologist, who was equally as nice and professional as everyone else at his practice. We started counting bikes ... and after bike #6 I fell a sleep. When I woke up, he was there to tell me I did great and before I knew it I was in a taxi cab back home with my best friend who came to pick me up. So I don't know if this is typical, but I had no pain whatsoever after the surgery. . I am very very happy with the results. Dr Kwan did an amazing job and I couldn't be more pleased.

I was involved in an automobile accident last May, 2013. The outcome from the emergency room left me with 5 stitches on the bridge of my nose, and the tip of my nose was missing due to the severe impact of the accident. I called and scheduled an appointment to visit Dr. Kwan so he could assess my nose. Upon arriving to the office, I was immediately impressed with the facility, service, and professionalism of his staff. Dr. Kwan met with me and examined my nose and in detail, he explained the approach he would take in order to get my nose like brand new again.On the day of my surgery, I was met by Dr Kwan, who performed the surgery, himself. His Anesthesiologist was very informative and professional as well. The outcome of Phase 1 was a success. In addition to that, the staff even called my medication into the pharmacy that way it would be ready as soon as I left the office. My nose is 98% back to normal, I now look forward to Phase 2 to be completed. After that procedure is done I am positive my nose will look absolutely perfect and I will be back to my confident self again. Thanks Dr Kwan and Staff.

Glenn C.
I have had several surgeries with Dr Kwan, and would recommend him highly. Liposuction of abdomen and love handles came out smooth. Upper eyelids look younger and refreshed, and the Basal Cell Cancer he cut out of my nose is not even visible, despite the fact that it was right along the rim of my left nostril.
Edmund Kwan, M.D.5
T. Cannon
I have been using Dr Kwan for over 10 years now. I have had many different procedures and all of them have turned out great. One of the breast augmentations had a crimp in the left breast and he had no problem going in to revise it to assure my satisfaction. I have always liked the way he answers each of my concerns and we go over everything for each procedure I've done several times to assure we are on the same page :) Take a list of any questions or concerns and I guarantee you will love your results no matter what procedure he is doing for you! .

Re: Solve for parameters of a truncated normal distribution
Thanks, Barrie! You're the third person to suggest it can't be done. It surprises me, but I'm starting to believe it. Your demonstration has exceptionally spiffy graphics.
I think you can push the common mean and variance of the truncated variablebelow 1.75 -- if you allow mu to be negative. For example, the common mean and variance of the truncated variable is 1.15 if {\[Mu] -> -7.37968, \[Sigma] -> 3.39052}.
And if you don't require the mean and variance of the truncated variable to be equal, you can get even closer to mean=variance=1. E.g.,
FindRoot[{Mean[X] == 1.1, Variance[X] == 1}, {\[Mu], 1, -20,
6}, {\[Sigma], 2, 1, 10}]

Hi Paul
I think this code:
Show[ {ContourPlot[
mean == height, {\[Mu], 0.01, 3}, {\[Sigma], 0.01, 3},
ContourStyle -> {Red} ],
ContourPlot[ var == height, {\[Mu], 0.01, 3}, {\[Sigma], 0.01, 3},
ContourStyle -> {Blue} ]},
FrameLabel -> {"\[Mu]", "\[Sigma]"} ], {{height, 1}, 0.1, 3,
0.001} ]
shows that this can't be done for the common value for the mean and variance of 1.
The minimum value for a solution is around 1.757 (after 30 seconds playing with the above Manipulate).

I think this is spam because I received a email stating I was potential winner for a $1,000 GC with a link to participate now to claim. It looked like spam,so I didn't click anything & after googling it I seen a lot of talk from others saying they received similar & the same email as i did & it was not true.
I could really use the money to help my oldest son out. He has Lyme Disease and is in bad shape. It has now given him Rheumatoid Arthritis and his hands are so swollen he can hardly work. This would really help him. He is working and living in so much pain it breaks my heart. My husband and I are disabled and we cannot afford to help him any longer. God Bless and thank you
It is Pam & I'm glad you realized. If you win over $500 you have to fill out an affidavit not participate now such as their winning email says. I've posted on here about it & sadly no one sees it & just continues to enter. I'm thinking if someone gets one of the so called winning emails I'm afraid they may think it to be true & something bad come out of it by trying to claim. I also posted to Infinite Sweeps on FB about it hoping to get it took down before something bad comes of the dailymoment site for someone thats entered... we will see though. Hopefully they don't leave it up regardless since it still gets hit on their site for people entering.
Yes, JR. myself & someone else has reported the same issue. They responded to my comment on FB about it I want to say last week & from what I understood we are getting that pop-up from a picture they have on the site here. I guess to be safe DONT click any ads & only the sweepstake links. They said they would see about getting the image hosted on their site so it don't give us that pop-up from our virus protection but thats not happened yet, because I still get the pop up too.

Miners to Renew Old WAC Rivalry Against Fresno State in CBI
March 18, 2014
UTEP-Fresno State Game Notes (PDF)
The UTEP Miners will return to postseason play on Wednesday in the Haskins Center, squaring off against old Western Athletic Conference foe Fresno State in the first round of the CBI.
Tip-off is at 7 p.m.
Fresno State (17-16, 9-9 Mountain West Conference) has won nine of its last 12 games. The Bulldogs have three players averaging double figures in scoring - senior guard Tyler Johnson (16.0 ppg), sophomore guard Marvelle Harris (14.8 ppg) and sophomore guard Cezar Guerrero (12.6 ppg). They also have the Mountain West Conference Freshman of the Year in forward/guard Paul Watson (10.0 ppg/4.6 rpg).
Fresno State ranks 10th nationally in turnovers per game (9.7), and Guerrero is 24th in the country in free throw percentage (.879).
"This is a team that is really quick and really fast," UTEP coach Tim Floyd said. "They remind me of Tulsa that way. They really shoot the ball well. They've got multiple inside guys that can step out, pop and shoot it. They are really athletic. They look like a Mountain West team that can go play with New Mexico, Nevada, Boise State and Colorado State and beat those teams, which they did often times this year."
While the Miners didn't land an invitation to the NCAA Tournament or the NIT, Floyd hopes they'll embrace the opportunity to extend their season.
"We've got some young freshmen that had really good years. But I think they need to play more basketball," he said. "We played 33 games. They all aspire to play beyond this level. If they do, they're hoping to play 82 [games]. But who wants to play? Who likes to play? Who's going to work in the offseason? And who's going to play coming off of a loss, which we most recently did?
"I think it's a wonderful opportunity to play in front of a fan base that really showed their appreciation this year and came out and supported a team that was down in the dumps in late December and early January. We're going to play against a quality team, a team that can play against anybody in our league. I look forward to the opportunity."
The Miners should be fresh for the Bulldogs; they haven't played since last Thursday, when they dropped a 64-56 decision to Southern Miss in the C-USA Tournament quarterfinals.
"We didn't do anything for three days so we're going to have our legs underneath us," Floyd said. "I think [the keys are] re-emphasizing who we are, going over a couple of actions that Fresno State does, and trying to do things better than we did in the conference tournament like getting back on defense and rebounding it. And being prepared for all things that a new opponent might try to show you."
Fresno State leads the series 15-12. The Miners are 10-3 versus the Bulldogs in El Paso, including 8-3 in the Don Haskins Center.
The teams are meeting for the first time since the 2004-05 season when they split a pair of matchups as members of the WAC. UTEP lost at Fresno State on Jan. 15, 2005 (66-63), and topped the Bulldogs in the DHC on Feb. 10, 2005 (93-80).
UTEP has won three of the last four matchups in the series after Fresno State won six of the previous seven games.
The teams are meeting in postseason play for the second time. On March 16, 1983, the Bulldogs nipped the Miners, 71-64, in a NIT first round game at Selland Arena. Tim Floyd was an assistant on the UTEP bench for that game.
Floor seats are $30. UTEP season ticket holders with floor seats have until 5 p.m. on Tuesday to reserve their seats by calling (915) 747-6150 before they are released to the general public. There is no other reserved seating for this game.
All other seats are $10 general admission. UTEP students gain free entry by showing a valid I.D.
The University Ticket Center number is (915) 747-5234.

Next Episode of Monster Hunter Stories: Ride On is
Season 1 / Episode 39 and airs on 02 July 2017 08:30
This is a world where both men and monsters exist. Those who hunt the monsters are called Hunters. But in a small corner of the Hunter's world, there are those called Riders who bond with and coexist with monsters. With their Kizuna Ishi (Bonding Stones) that allow them to awaken the hidden power inside monsters, Riders live in secrecy together with their Otomon, the monsters they formed a connection with.
Ryūto, a young boy living in the Rider village of Hakum, dreams of becoming the world's best Rider. Having just turned 12, he sets out to find his own Otomon for himself before the ceremony where he is given his own Kizuna Ishi. Together with his kind-hearted childhood friend Shuval, his inquisitive childhood friend Lilia, and his partner Naviloo, he sets out deep into the forest, and has a miraculous encounter with a Rathalos.(Source: ANN)

Mediating Lent
As we approach Lent once again, it's common to talk about ancient disciplines, like fasting, almsgiving, and prayer. These help individuals increase their faithfulness to Christ and develop habits appropriate for followers of Christ. Christian communities encourage corporate Lenten disciplines, like collections for world relief and mid-week prayer.
One of the most ancient Lenten disciplines is a process of faith formation called the catechumenate. Although the entire catechumenal process is a year (or longer) in duration, it finds its center in the preaching, Bible study, and liturgy of Lent, culminating in the baptism of catechumens at the Easter Vigil. As I share in my recent book Mediating Faith, I believe a process like the catechumenate, or even a liturgical season like Lent, is in fact a kind of technology, a medium, and as such, it works to invite those participating in it to be formed in certain ways.
We are often painfully aware that social media is media, or books and radio and television are media, but less aware that communal processes are also a kind of media. So we know that Lent does something. Observed well, it cultivates penitential beauty, strengthens the social character of the church and its disciplines, and lives with an eschatological awareness that all we do is also lived in anticipation of our future life in Christ.
But what do we hope the observance of Lent will accomplish? Here various Christian communities part ways. Many communities hope Lent will deepen classic (stereotypical?) virtues. These communities fast from meat on Fridays, eat soup suppers on Wednesdays, and pass out little cardboard boxes in which to place quarters for Heifer International.
These are practices, many of them commendable, certainly, but sometimes they can soothe the conscience without wounding in order to then cure the soul. So, other Christian communities take Lent to more radical places. Peter Rollins invites communities to give up God for Lent, what he calls Atheism for Lent. Rollins and other emerging Christian communities know that some kinds of practices reinforce ugly, individualistic, and hopeless disciplines. In order to encourage the kind of repentance and renewal Lent is designed to evoke, the practices have to be shocking enough to call the community out of its torpor.
This Lent, I invite you to make use of the following structure to "mediate" Lent in what I hope are some startling but transformative ways. The six-week plan, beginning Ash Wednesday and concluding during Holy Week, is certainly not exhaustive. It simply offers, one week at a time, a representative set of practices that might emerge organically out of meditation on the way media form us in faith. Woven through all the days are opportunities for beauty, sociality, and eschatological hope, and connections to the classic disciplines of Lent.
Week 1: Books
1) Page through a book that deeply impacted you as a child.
2) Read an essay by an author with whom you are in fundamental disagreement.
3) Hand copy the most beautiful poem you know and give it to a friend.
4) Ask a friend to read the text of a hymn out loud to you, slowly.
5) Donate an uncomfortable number of books to your library.
6) Try not to read anything today.
7) Use a book as a pillow. Literally.

Drops from the Kingdom: The Silver Arrow (edition 2011)
by Larry Itejere
Work details
Drops from the Kingdom: The Silver Arrow by Larry Itejere
No current Talk conversations about this book.
I read The Silver Arrow because I wanted to experience a book written for young adults. I read books and watch movies to be entertained. I was very pleasantly surprised after reading Larry Itejere's book. I wouldn't limit this book to young adult no more than I would limit Orson Scott Card's Ender's Game to an adult book. As I read the story, it just kept getting better and better. Larry let the story unfold in a perfect pace. Lots of action, tension, and a perfect mix of description. I have read some books that spent pages describing a scene and in doing so the story became lost to the reader... not Larry. It was the perfect blend of action and scene description. Once I started, I didn't want to stop reading- that's the sign of a good book. I would highly recommend The Silver Arrow for both young adults and adults alike.
I really liked the premise and developement of this story, at times it was confusing and hard to follow, but many questions get answered along the way. At times I felt the story was a little stagnant then at other times a little to jumpy. Overlooking the grammer and odd sentence structure this story has some really good bones to it. I think with a bit of editing and revision it will be an excellent series.
Don't let the cover fool you, it looks more like a book for younger people, but I found the story very detailed and it kept the mind working. It was in no way a boring at all. It was very fast paced.
As a young boy he has a dream that plagues him, his father then helps him discover what the dream means and what his destiny will be.
My only negative comment would be that in some areas added information could be used to make sure the reader knows what is happening.
I agree with chickey1981, this novel was difficult for me to understand and get into due to the various spelling and grammar mistakes.
I read my books on a kindle using the text-to-speech feature and having excellent grammar and spelling in a novel when using this feature is essential. This meant that I was unable to finish the novel because it was too difficult to follow the story.

If you have not helped any family, siblings or friends with their wedding planning before, then planning for your own wedding might certainly seem very daunting… especially with all the administrative and back end work you need to do e.g. booking a suitable restaurant for your wedding day banquet, looking for professional make up artists, hiring a good and quality pre-wedding photography studio in Singapore, engaging a photographer and/or videographer for your actual day ceremony e.t.c.
The truth is, you're right! There are a lot of things to be done for a couple's wedding in Singapore, but it can be done smoothly if you know how to plan. In this post, I'll focus on teaching you how to find a good pre-wedding photography studio in Singapore, because that's one of the biggest concerns that couples pose to me.
First of all, before you go out and search for a pre-wedding photography studio, make sure to discuss carefully with your fiance on what type of photographs he or she thinks is good. Because everyone has different opinions of what makes a wedding photo beautiful, you should check it out with your fiance first and come to a combined conclusion that fits both of your tastes.
Second of all, just Google search them. There are tons of pre-wedding photography studios in Singapore that you can find on Google. I would recommend picking out and listing them and then pick out the 3 photography studios whose bridal images suits you and your fiance's tastes the most.
Third of all, email or call these studios and ask them for their quotes and levels of services. Finally pick the one studio that falls within your designated budget for a pre-wedding photographer. If there are more than one or all 3 pre-wedding photography studio suits your budget, then you might want to check out their levels of services for the packages. Do all of them provide the exact same things within their package? More often than not, it is different. Some companies may offer free make up artist services while others may offer things such as discounts with affiliated gown rental companies in Singapore. You need to look through all of these and make a decision based on that.
Finally, if all of the 3 studios offer exactly the same things, have the same level of quality as well as prices, then you need to sit down with you fiance and come to a careful conclusion. Or, you could also simply drop by the studio's office to find out how the photographers' working styles and personalities are before deciding because that can really impact your photographs. Some studios hire very passive photographers where the customers would direct them while they simply take the images and edit while others are very active in suggestions e.t.c.. Make sure you know what you and your fiance likes and go for it!

In the previous article, we used the reflection to obtain the information of an assembly, module, type, and type members. In this article, we'll turn to discuss another important aspect related to reflection-Attribute programming. We are going to first look at the mostly-used .NET built-in Attributes, and then try to write a custom Attribute. At last, we'll rest upon reflection to acquire the custom attribute info.

Clare Bowditch's Christmas wishlist!
The Christmas coveting continues today with a very special wishlist from one of Melbourne's best loved local musicians – Clare Bowditch!
I was very lucky to meet the lovely Ms B this year through the equally lovely Kat Macleod, and since then I have fallen head over heels in love with her, which I imagine is quite a regular occurence. She is a magical mermaid type person who makes you melt into 'I can't remember what I was saying because you are so mesmerising' territory within moments of first meeting her. I am not making this up.
Clare has been so super lovely and supportive of The Design Files this year, and GUESS WHAT!? I will be on the ABC radio with Clare TONIGHT at about 7.30pm! True story! Clare has been hosting a special week of commentary on ABC Local (that's 774 in Melbourne) from 7 – 10pm every night this week. She has had some lovely guests on already and I feel very spesh to be included in there! Thankyou Clare!
Now, onto the important stuff…
Clare Bowditch's Christmas Wishlist!
– Books – like Meet Me at Mikes new book, Sew La Tea Do or Sequins and Sequence by Kat Macleod.
– BEAUTIFUL hand-made Mud ceramics – little bowls and cups, in glorious colours like egg-shell blue… I really love them.
– Piet Hein Eek's light installation for my studio.
– A Cat Rabbit tear-drop dolly.
– Speaking of tears, a Community School from Tear Australia.
– Matching Rosette bedspread and cushions from Lazybones (I love the Charcoal and Cherry)
– A striped wrap-dress from Boom Shankar (best beach dress ever)
– A years supply of SK-II (I know, I fell for it, now I'm addicted. It's killing me…)
– Two free weeks and the keys to T2, so I could try every single flavour in every single teapot.

Today, the seventh of June, is the birthday of Prince Rogers Nelson. The year is irrelevant: If you've ever seen Prince and his amazing band play live -- as thousands of lucky participants and I just did during his sensational Los Angeles "21-Nite Stand" -- you know that time stands still and an ageless, dreamlike quality engulfs y'all. My first rock concert was Van Halen (in the sixth grade -- me, not them), and I've been present for the likes of everything from Dead Can Dance to Donovan, Loreena McKennitt to Paul McCartney, James Brown to Pavarotti -- but nobody, really, nobody puts on a show like Prince. He cavorts like a little kid, jokes like an old soul, dances like a gazelle, bellows like a bitch in heat, and dons more fancy costumes than a cadre of superheroes. I'm gonna call it: Prince is the consummate entertainer. He is a national treasure. They should clone him and put the clone in the Smithsonian.
Greatest. Concert. Ever.
I grew up with Prince. Well, not literally -- but I was gazing at a fat Zenith with wooden legs when he mimed "I Wanna Be Your Lover" on American Bandstand in 1980, then peculiarly told Dick Clark he played "a thousand" instruments. Clark wasn't buying. But a few albums later, in 1982, I was buying: the straight white AP student so embarrassed about picking up Prince's 1999 on cassette for his sister at Musicland (hey, people knew me there!) that I actually put on a "disguise" consisting of a stupid hat and glasses. I wasn't ready. But then Prince went away for a year, and in 1984 came back with a full-band sound and Purple Rain -- the classic, genre-scrambling album the whole world still rightfully reveres. He's made terrific music almost non-stop since then (I enjoyed tormenting my dour Pink Floyd-head college roomie with "Housequake," and recently I've been revisiting Musicology), and -- setlists available elsewhere -- you name the hit, he played the living hell out of it during his recent run.
Oh no, he didn't!
But what is Prince? Personal anecdotes and hearsay aside, I can tell you that his appeal spans generations, and the ladies looove him -- probably because he gets up there and does all the things they wish they could get away with. (One look at their seated, sullen boyfriends tells you plenty.) Prince is also a lot like Bono (except Prince's weird moniker is his real name) in that he very clearly aspires to be the portal through which all pop music emanates -- the primary differences being that: a.) Apart from some of his lyrics, Prince isn't prone to any idiotic messiah complex and b.) Bono's guitar skills are to Prince's what George W. Bush's oratory skills are to Obama's. Speaking of which, Prince still occasionally suffers grammar issues: "The time for leaders are gone!" (sic) he declared to the seventeen thousand of us inside Inglewood's famed Forum. Oops.
"Now all you others say, 'HELL, YEAH!'"
Prince encourages white guys to monitor their own dancing.
So Prince is not perfect -- not that you'd notice while he's effortlessly running his "Mountains" into a sing-along of Sly Stone's "Everyday People," channeling Michael Jackson via a ballsy cover of "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'" or jamming his own countless hits alongside everybody from the legendary Maceo Parker to Sheila E. to his brilliantly-revamped New Power Generation. Perhaps what's most bewildering about the man is his sheer drive: a good night can go three and a half hours, and it's all good. I considered this alongside the news that Prince's brother, Duane Nelson, just died a couple of months ago. Perhaps shaking that ass is the therapy. It's been said that original soul-stirrer Sam Cooke toured as much as possible after the death of his young son (and Prince lost a boy, too; he and I share a name) -- so maybe we are witnessing some sort of exorcism, along with the pop perfection. Or maybe it's because Prince is a quintessential, split-personality Gemini; a few years ago I romanced a rotten Gemini girl with an allegedly sweet reputation, thus Gemini, to me, equals doubt and dread -- but I'm willing to sidestep the Zodiac if a person displays a variety of talents (whereas she only had one talent). So Prince's personal life remains enigmatic, and I'm sure not going to delve into it. But on that stage, trust me, Prince really is all things to all people. When he brings his brilliance to your region, you must go dance in the reign.
Prince: He's not a human. He is a dove.
Happy Birthday, Prince. Good Wishes to You and Yours.

Cauleen Smith
Presented by Women and Their Work at Women and Their Work
October 11 - November 17, 2007
In a dazzling, multi-layered exhibition of video, sculpture and drawing, Cauleen Smith investigates deeply embedded cultural assumptions and provides surprising insights into the consequences of those assumptions. Smith examines one of the most quoted speeches in American movies (from the
classic film, Night of the Hunter); the NTSC (a committee whose compromises resulted in there being no uniformity of color on North American television); and asks what must video as a medium trade off for its accessibility, its immediacy, and its affordability? (A lot!)

A best single oil for immune support?
I've successfully used blends to keep myself and my family cold-free all year long (like Ananda's Super Immune).
I was wondering if anyone had such success with a single oil? I was considering Benchmark Thyme, but not sure of it's anti-viral properties (though I''m convinced of it's anti-bacterial potency)...or perhaps Bay Laurel, because of its chemically complex nature, and its efficacy against SARS CoV. Any thoughts would bw welcome. Thanks!

Re: A best single oil for immune support?
Hmmm -- that's a tough one. Seeing how Benchmark Thyme has a profile similar to a combination of Thyme and Tea Tree, it is likely one of the best -- as is likely Bay Laurel, like you mentioned; it does have some research behind it as well.
Salvatore Battaglia mentions in the
Complete Guide to Aromatherapy
that Frankincense is the number one "immune modulating" oil.
Meaning, I believe, that its sort of an adaptogen for the immune system, and the body/mind complex in general. It keeps us healthy overall, and the immune system is strengthened in this process.
Hyssop officinalis (not decumbens) is also a highly complex oil noted for immune support, though it does have safety concerns, and probably not an oil to be used all year 'round.
Blends like Super Immune may be the way to go, as they generally include anti-viral, anti-bacterial, and anti-fungal essential oils all in one formula.
I'm interested if others have had success as well with a single oil keeping them well while those around them caught "whatever was going around"?
This would be great information for those with a limited budget or collection of oils
-- and how they used them as well: diffusing, topically, etc...Let us know!

Re: A best single oil for immune support?
With a little further consideration, "
Benchmark Thyme
" may be "it".
I've been in touch with the developer (remember it's a blend of 4 pure Thyme essential oils) who'd perfected this combination of oils from strains of Thymus zygis that effectively destroyed the MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) "superbug" bacteria. No other "single" oil has shown the efficacy that it does.
There's a lot of research on PubMed.Gov that indicates the antimicrobial oils also seem to enhance activity of the immune system
- increasing phagocytosis, and some say they actually change electrical potential of cell walls to make it harder for each cell to be infected. Meaning that the destruction of the microbes should expected to be accompanied by increased immune-system function. Whether these are confirmed, this study does at least support the use of oils in general for immune-supportive actions: "
Immune-modifying and antimicrobial effects of Eucalyptus oil and simple inhalation devices
I hope this helps!

Re: A best single oil for immune support?
Would this oil be good then for seasonal (fall) allergies? My daughter has a cough from what seems to be allergies. Would I just diffuse some daily? Can you suggest how often I should diffuse? Thanks!

Re: A best single oil for immune support?
Hmmm....allergies are an inflammatory reaction; she MAY do well with just Blue Gum Eucalyptus (some do) -- which you'd just diffuse, and there are other oils used specifically for reducing allergy symptoms through their more potent anti-inflammatory action. Blue Tansy and Blue Yarrow, are two, which could be blended with Eucalyptus in the diffuser (perhaps 1:10, Blue Tansy:Eucalyptus ratio) or blended with a carrier and massaged around her throat. Though the "blue" oils will leave the skin blue for a bit
Everyone reacts differently, so you'll have to experiment. I recommend diffusing the Eucalyptus, and the Eucalyptus + Blue Tansy and see if one or both work well for her. I have had a customer respond that her son did well when she diffused Eucalyptus; he had bronchial issues from allergies. I hadn't thought to recommend the Blue Tansy at the time, though it makes good sense.
Another route would be to try diffusing the Super Immune blend, as it will be anti-inflammatory as well, boosts immune system activity, and is designed to be very protective from airborne infectious agents.
I hope that's not too many choices! Let me know if you'd like help narrowing that down.

Thanks Eric! I think I'll try the immune oil as now everyone just seens to be fighting something more than just allergies. Hopefull that will cover all the bases.
Thanks for your time, I really appreciate it.

I would like to know how much lemon essential oil should be put in an 8 oz. glass of water to help alkalize the body and help with the immune support.

Re: A best single oil for immune support?
Hi - The typical recommendation is 5 drops of essential oil per 8oz of water. What's important to recognize is that this is a detoxification agent, meant to stimulate the liver's release of bile (should be used first thing in the morning) - and detox throughout the day. It is not meant to be an alkalizer. For improved alkalinity, drink the juice with water - chew the seeds if they are organic, and also if organic, one can make a tea of the used peels and drink that as well - as alkaline minerals will be released into the water.

Re: A best single oil for immune support?
"Hmmm....allergies are an inflammatory reaction; she MAY do well with just Blue Gum Eucalyptus (some do) -- which you'd just diffuse", if allergic to dust mites and dust mite faeces eucalyptus oil will inactivate the allergans on the faeces and likely kill the mites as well as support the immune system. I have been spraying with eucalyptus in alcohol and it has made a big difference, plus in washing bedding added some oil. Waiting on my Synergy.

Stormr surf top

Many good features added to the top it is well built.
Proswell built,large front pocket and you are also able to run your surf belt through the backside of the pocket much more comfortable.Good top worth the money.Best price I found was here at TD.No flashy colors when you are incognito mode..
ConsCuffs are a little tight but I'll give it some time to see if the loosen some naturally done for a reason keep water out.

unbelievable top! very well made
October 6, 2014
tremendous surf top. couldn't be happier. all of the features make it obvious the company has the true surf caster in mind. belt behind the front pocket, double cinching around the waist and hips. keeps you warm as ever! I want to wear this thing even when im not fishing its so awesome. great design.
Prosneoprene neck gasket stays snug but does not choke. the hood naturally folds down and stays down laying flat on your back unless you need it up in bad weather. plenty of room in the front pocket. I'm 225 lbs and have an athletic build. I purchased A size large because I prefer a more of a snug fit. I can fit a couple of under armour cold weather tops underneath and its great. fishing buddy of mine, maybe 200 lbs, chose an XL because he wanted to be able to fit a sweatshirt underneath. plus it just plain looks cool and stealthy!
Consif you get dunked you may get a little water in the neck area. but its neoprene not the rubber gaskets on other brands. I knew that before purchasing so its not really a con for me. More so a preference but may be a con for some. just snug it up to your neck and enjoy. the neoprene wrist gaskets partially ripped a little on both sides. but Im doing to attribute that to a slight defect. its warrantied so im not worried. no real cons in my opinion.

Best Waterproof Top yet
April 30, 2014
Bored.......so surfing youtube fishing videos and I see some guy wearing a "top" and he literally dives headfirst through a wave wearing this jacket. Anybody that surf fishes in deep water takes a wave to their gut and the water blasts up under you jacket blowing out your neck and soaking you good. This Jacket has the proper seals to keep that from happening, nice and snug around the waist, fully adjustable, tight gasket like seals around the wrist, so when you reach in the water to release that trophy fish, you're still nice and dry up your wrist. I use it for both kayak fishing/surf launches and surf fishing, perfect for cool or cold weather, a little warm for summers.

awesome surf top
November 17, 2013
I bought this surf top to keep me dry and warm, fishing the south shore of long island. The top is true to fit. I am 5'6" and 155lbs, the medium fits me well, with enough room to layer. The material stretches so it does not restrict movement. It's pretty warm too, I would not recommend using it during warm days. Keeping water out is where this top shines. Fished it hard in big surf, got hit overhead with some waves, but I kept dry. The neck seal, when closed accordingly, keeps water out well. The inner wrist seals are tight, but not too tight that circulation is cut off, and there's an outer Velcroed cuff that can be tightened for added protection.
Proswell made keeps you dry great look large front pocket
Consfront pocket closure flap may be too short and should have more Velcro.

Boeing: Up In The Clouds
Since diving from 51 in 2003 to a three-year low of 24, Boeing (BA ) (BA) has soared to 78 -- and the smart money says it'll keep going. "It has strong free cash flow, which will continue as it fills 2005 orders," says Standard & Poor's (MHP ) Jim Corridore, who upgraded the stock from "hold," to "buy," with a 12-month target of 85. (Boeing was featured in this column on Feb. 21, 2005, at 54.) Orders this year may not match 2005's, but financial results will be strong, he says. Corridore is upbeat on CEO James McNerney, who, he says, can push up debt-adjusted return on equity to 15%-17% for the next 10 years. Compounded free-cash-flow growth, he estimates, will hit 7.5% to 8.5%. And earnings before interest and taxes, he adds, should rise from 6% to over 8%. Ronald Epstein of Merrill Lynch (MER ), which has done business with Boeing, writes that "better-than-expected demand" globally for the 787 will increase deliveries in 2008 to 450 aircraft from an estimated 425 in 2007 and 405 in 2006. Output, Epstein figures, will stay at that level through 2010. The 787 "is a category killer," he says. Recently, he upped his profit estimate for 2006 from $3.35 a share to $3.40 and for 2007 from $4.20 to $4.30. The figures might be conservative, he adds. Value Line's (VALU ) Morton Siegel notes that the 787, slated to appear in 2008, is already nearly sold out through 2010. A bigger 787 will enter service in 2012. Siegel sees Boeing performing well for years to come.

165 yards? How were they able to see his CCW badge?
165 feet is superb if yards he must of had a scope and a Glock.

It is quite often that people will misuse yards instead of feet. I see that fairly frequently on posts in the forums where someone says that they were shooting at 50 yards when, in reality, the rest of their post makes it pretty clear that it wasn't 150 feet that they were talking about, but 50 FEET. Even some say 25 yards which is still longer than most indoor gun ranges (not saying they don't exist as I know they do, but I doubt that most of the pistol ranges are not likely that).
Even at 165 feet, that's some damn fine shootin'. Love the old timers attitude about it all, it reminds me a lot of older Southern gentleman I've been/get trained by down here in good ole' South Carolina.
I've made 500yd shot to hit a keg with my glock before. It took a whole magazine but I did it.
That leads me to believe 165yds with a 357 mag is very possible.
And to those who decide to call bs on my glock shot there were two witnesses. 1 is an LEO too.
Nice!!! What a man!!
Kudos to the people involved. Another example of how a violent criminal situation can be impeded or halted by a citizenry capable of saying "no."
Under the new-and-improved dictionary definition there's a photo: Trailer Trash ... see him.
Holy cow... and I thought the Fairchild AFB cop shoot was impressive (still is - 4 shots at 70yds, two hits, one between the eyes, after a sprint across base on a bicycle).
But from the interview, 165yds, from cover, first hit in the thigh (maybe 18" south of COM?), next 3 or 4 hits while under fire?
Nice shootin', Tex!
Edit: BTW, maybe he had something fancier, but I'm gonna bet this guy was carrying a pretty straight-up stock revolver. Anyone got a good way to show what a standard ramp and notch sight looks like superimposed on a human-sized target at 165yds?
It just goes to show:
This is a crazy world;
There are crazy people in this crazy world,
Things can go south fast;
Tragedy can strike in the blink of an eye;
Good guys still live;
Good LEO's still exist;
Bad people still do violence;
Never turn your back on a threat;
Clean up after your dogs;
Pointy sticks don't go 165 feet;
There is a reason to train and shoot a lot;
Dogs should be on lead, fenced in or kept out of adjoining properties;
Life is fragile;
Probably a bunch more I've missed; and
You just can't make this stuff up.
This is so tragic on so many levels. We should remember the lessons.
The 357 can do it. I've rung a 2 ft steel plate a few times at our local range @ 300 yards.
Stock sights on a 6" GP100, w/ full power 158 grainers. It took a couple shots to get it dialed in, and aiming a couple feet high.
Doing it under stress w/ a guy shooting back, very impressive!!
I'd like to buy him dinner so I could hear the whole story, with all the details.
Another headline could be, "Man with handgun takes on criminal with rifle at 165 ft. and wins." That takes some big ones.
