A gorgeous, contemporary waterfront home on a crystal-clear, fresh-water lake that can be used by a single or multiple families, comfortably sleeping up to 13 persons, including children. Spend your vacation, swimming or kayaking or lazing on a private dock or by bird-watching, playing family games and going for walks through the tall trees adorning this 2-acre property near conservation land and close to Sandy Neck and Craigsville beaches. This six-bedroom home plus study has plenty of space for entertaining. A wonderful open-floor plan with a spectacular center stone fireplace. Contemporary open kitchen with granite counters and double ovens. Beautiful, tastefully-chosen furniture throughout the home with top-quality, comfortable beds/ mattresses. House kept in impeccable condition and primarily used by owner (not rented frequently). This home (originally designed and owned by master architects) boasts plenty of windows throughout the home to maximize water-views, sun-shine and moon-lit nights. 4 bathrooms + Outdoor Shower make multi-family use comfortable. Spacious home offers many amenities throughout, including game room with high-end equipment that include an Olhausen pool/billiards table, Stiga ping-pong table, Foos-ball and darts. Outdoor family fun abounds with waterfront activities from private dock, such as swimming, kayaking and fishing, as well as yard games such as ladder ball, wiffle ball, soccer and basketball. Conveniently located close to restaurants, farmers' market, Stop n Shop, local ice cream stores, nearby beaches (Sandy Neck) and shopping (Mashpee Commons).
This house is simply beautiful! Perfect location for families with or without kids who want to enjoy the lake and all the amenities. Our family stayed here for 1 week and it was everything we needed for adults and kids. The house was clean and has the most amazing view of the lake. The back yard is huge! Games were there for us to use, a fire pit for s'mores and we were impressed with the lake dock and kayaks to use. There were even life jackets available that looked brand new! The lake was so peaceful - definitely recommend a morning kayak workout!
The house has all the amenities you need for a vacation. Kitchen was perfect for cooking our large family meals every night and had plenty of dishes, utensils and other items. The bedrooms were perfect - either kids rooms or adult rooms they were absolutely perfect. Definitely bring your own bath towels. There is plenty of food shopping local with either supermarket chains or local farm stands. Definitely recommend the ice cream place in town called Ice Cream Sandwich in Sandwich. Super cute! Definitely recommend the Craigsville beach about 15 minutes away. We went to a few beaches and this one had no rocks and the sand was great.
Overall, this house and area is a great place for a family vacation. I would stay here again!
This house was perfect for our family vacation to watch my nephew play baseball in the Cape Code league. Me and my family, my three brothers and their family's, and my mother all spent the week and there was plenty of room for everyone. The kitchen and dining area was big enough to accommodate everyone for meals. We really enjoyed the lake. The dock was big enough for sunbathing. We used the kayaks almost every day and even did some fishing as well. We spent a couple nights on the back deck grilling and playing yard games.
My only complaint was the musty smell in the basement. Apparently there had been a water leak the week before and the smell was still lingering. They were definitely trying to remedy the situation as there were dehumidifiers and an industrial fan placed in the basement.
The caretaker, Pete, is so friendly and a great source of local information.
Thank you for a wonderful week on Cape Cod!!
3 families (12 people - 6 adults and 6 kids) had a great weeklong vacation on Triangle Pond this summer. While the home looks small from the front, it's spacious on the inside with room for everyone and views to dies for. We had 2 bedrooms we didn't even use. There was so much to do at the house that we didn't feel pressured to leave. The kids spent their time playing soccer (there is a patch of land with full size goals set up), volleyball and badminton, then making their way to the dock to swim, kayak and stand-up paddle board. We even taught all the kids to fish and had a couple of dinners that included fresh bass. The water clear and the temp was perfect.
It was a relaxing week with lots to do in Sandwich and throughout the Cape. Evenings were spent around the firepit making smores. And for our one rainy day the foosball, pool and pingpong tables came in handy.
The outside and some of the carpets are a little run down, and the basement smells a bit musty, but none of that took away from our fantastic vacation! And Dr. Rao was wonderful to deal with from beginning to end including calling a few days before check in to let us know about new amenities at the house.
Thank you for a wonderful stay at your home. The lake views were absolutely gorgeous from almost every room. You house has so much room that we were able to come together as a family at times and also have time away from each other when we wanted to spend time apart. We loved swimming across the lake and kayaking all around the lake. Your home is beautiful. Thank you for a wonderful vacation in Cape Cod.
Beautiful home on a crystal clear pond. Enjoyed swimming, kayaking, fishing and sailing! The kids loved jumping off the dock to swim. There were 7 adults and 6 smaller children with plenty of room for all of us! It was a great house with many amenities.
We (2 grandparents, 5 adult children & spouses, 6 grandchildren) made a strong effort to respect your beautiful home and felt privileged to stay there. It was great having so much space, both for sleeping and playing. With bedrooms on 4 floors, it made for peaceful nights with no more than 2 kids in a room. The children especially enjoyed the game room but made sure they didn't abuse it (e.g., no child was allowed to use the pool table without an adult supervising). They liked the Foosball game, but we noted that most screws/nuts were loose. In order to avoid damage, we tightened up the screws (and bought a replacement bolt which turned out not to be able to be installed because of stripped threads on the table). In any case we left the table in better condition (more stable) than we found it.
We did have a wonderful stay. The lake was wonderful, both for swimming and boating. We especially appreciated the fact that there were no motor boats, which made for a peaceful lake (with no oil slick). We spent lots of time in the very clear water (it was a great temperature, not too hot or too cold) with the kids doing jumping (and a little diving) off the good sized dock The kids also appreciated having some sandy beach. They discovered turtles that stayed mainly under the dock. They managed to catch 13 turtles with a small net (various sizes but none very big - including some snappers - no injuries reported) and played with them in a turtle habitat that they constructed at the edge of the water. They named all the turtles and did release them after an hour or 2. When they caught them again the next day, they were excited to recognized each one, "There's jellybean!" (the largest was named grandpa). We made good use of all 3 kayaks, with everyone getting at least one turn and several turns for others.
We also enjoyed a lunch of ice cream at the Ice Cream Sandwich in Sandwich and one afternoon at the Craigsville beach.
Having a Stop&Shop (and other stores)10 minutes away proved to be extremely handy.
Overall this was the perfect vacation for us since we really wanted a lake vacation but had the option of going to the ocean.
Located in the historic town of Sandwich in Cape Cod. Sandwich is celebrating its 375th anniversary with special events and festivals this year. Must-sees include the Heritage gardens, Glass museum, boardwalk and the famous Sandy Neck Beach with a 180-degree vista that boasts spectacular views of sun-rise and sun-set. The region is also home to a string of pristine kettle-ponds that were fed by the receding glaciers, making their fresh waters clear and refreshing for those who enjoy swimming.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Wings Press Conference
by Paul on 07/03/06 at 01:14 AM ET
Comments (0)
The Red Wings have called a 1 p.m. news conference for Monday. The organization is calling it a major announcement, which fuels speculation it be regarding the future of Steve Yzerman, who has been torn about retirement or playing another season. If not Yzerman, the Wings could be announcing the acquisition of a free agent. Holland is in the market for a veteran No. 1 goalie, and one strong possibility is Ed Belfour. A physical defenseman is another need, and Aaron Ward, a former Red Wing who recently won a Stanley Cup with the Carolina Hurricanes, has been linked to the Red Wings.added 8:34am, from Mlive,
Yzerman spoke with Wings general manager Ken Holland on Friday, and a team source said Yzerman assured the club that he would make a decision by today. It's highly unlikely the Wings would hold a press conference to announce that Yzerman is returning.

Section 15 of the 1987 Act declares, for the avoidance of doubt, that, subject to the law relating to parliamentary powers and immunities, a law in force in the Australian Capital Territory applies in the parliamentary precincts according to its tenor.
The Parliamentary Precincts Act 1988 defines the parliamentary precincts, provides that the Presiding Officers have management and control of the precincts, and makes other provisions for the administration of the precincts.
For many years before these two Acts were passed discussion of parliamentary privilege was bedevilled by confusion of questions relating to the immunities of the Houses, their committees and members with questions relating to the parliamentary precincts. There is no connection between the precincts of Parliament, however defined, and the ordinary law or the law relating to parliamentary immunities. Many people were confused into thinking that there was some such connection; in particular, there was a persistent idea that the ordinary law did not apply in the precincts.
There was never any ground for doubt that the ordinary criminal law applied in the parliamentary precincts, however defined, as it applies anywhere else in the jurisdiction: Rees v McCay 1975 26 FLR 228, and the authorities referred to in that case.
Words or acts which might otherwise constitute criminal offences are immune from prosecution if they are said or done in the course of proceedings in Parliament. This, however, has nothing to do with the parliamentary precincts. The immunity adheres to words spoken or acts done outside the precincts, for example, words spoken in the proceedings of a committee sitting anywhere in the country, or an assault committed by an officer of either House while carrying out a lawful order of that House for the arrest of a person anywhere in the country.
The issue was further confused by the fact that it is an essential element of some criminal acts that they be done in a public place; that is, such acts are offences only if they are committed in a public place. There was some doubt about whether the courts regarded any part of Parliament House as a public place. Again, this had nothing to do with the precincts, although the courts might have regard to the question of what are the precincts in determining whether a particular act was done in a public place. Most criminal offences do not depend for their status as offences upon their being done in a public place.
It was an element of some contempts of Parliament that they were done in the parliamentary precincts; that is, the acts concerned were contempts only if they were done in the precincts. For example, it was long held to be a contempt for any authority to attempt to execute any criminal or civil process in the parliamentary precincts on a sitting day. The powers of the Houses to deal with contempts do not, however, depend upon any declaration of the precincts.
Thus the declaration of what are the parliamentary precincts is an administrative matter, which has no connection with the operation of either the ordinary law or the law of parliamentary immunities.
The whole matter was therefore cleared up and placed beyond doubt by the 1987 and 1988 legislation.

Hi everyone!
Marketplace Review Manager here with a quick update regarding the state of AudioJungle's review queues. As you've likely noticed, the queues have been rather slow going as of late and, during some periods, exceeding the stated 7 day review time.
Why is this happening?
A lot more work! There have been more authors submitting more and more awesome items and we have new authors joining every day!
What are we doing about it?
- Hiring! We are currently training new reviewers who will soon be up and running at full speed. Thank you to everyone who submitted!
- Improving efficiency with better processes, documentation and training. This is a slow going process that has been underway for awhile now but will show its effects early next year.
How can you help?
Being patient will go a long ways towards helping keep our workload clean and clear so we can focus on getting more reviewing done while we hire and train more staff. We know it's frustrating that you may have to wait awhile longer and we're working hard at getting the queues back to a very snappy turnaround time.
Thanks for your patience everyone and happy holidays!
Hi Jarel
Nice thread I left the demand and I hope for the fastest consideration
Hey Jremick!
Thank you for the explanation and the opportunity! I submitted an application as well. Good luck to everyone who applies!! What an awesome opportunity!
Great job opportunity! I would love to join the team of AudioJungle, I think with my 30 years of experience writing and producing music, I had fitted to perfection. Unfortunately I only know English writing. A real missed opportunity.
Hey jremick, thanks for feedback!
I've just submitted an application too
Thanks for the info, Jarel
At least you've informed us. So its clear.

Hello! Welcome to the AudioJungle
If you've made just a minor mistake like that – mp3 bitrate – and there's nothing else wrong with your submission (for example, quality), your item will just get "soft-rejected", which means you will only have to correct those minor mistakes you've made and then you can resubmit your file. I hope this helped you

• On a daily basis tackle all jurisdictions discrepancies; internal orphans and dtcc orphans.
• Perform in depth analysis of breaks and discrepancies to identify root cause (IT feed issue, incorrect populated field, incorrect reporting logic applied…) and escalate it to relevant teams.
• Have a close follow up on fixes and their release.
• Provide update and MIS to management.
• Attend to Ops and IT meeting and workshops
• Keeping procedures up to date
• Fill control plan on daily basis
• Degree in Finance, Economy or Management (required); Master's Degree is a plus

• Knowledge of financial products (Equities, Listed derivatives, Rates, FX, and/or Credit) and of the trade life cycle is a plus
• Knowledge of Regulatory Transaction Reporting (CFTC,EMIR,FCA, AMF, JFSA, HKMA) is a plus
• Fluent in English
• French knowledge is a plus
• Strong Excel Skills and ability to work with heavy data files
• Excellent analytical skills to track IT issues
• Strong communications skills and able to communicate to management in a clear and concise manner
• Ability to prioritize workloads and multi tasks
• Analytical skills

Role Gains
The role gives the successful candidate the opportunity to gain experience in a booming regulatory reporting environment extremely complex, continuously changing and work with a wide variety of transversal teams. You will be required to be enthusiastic, dynamic, flexible, and focused on control, accuracy and maximising efficiency.

I WONDER if I may gently challenge your rather defeatist position on these vast solar panel sites?
I am so pleased the Houghton Down site has been rejected, and thank you for bringing good news so clearly.
I think that a whole rash of these terrible applications for factory-style developments are due, the one at Barrows Hill having been unfortunately allowed to proceed. They want to make an eyesore of 45 acres near Abbotts Ann. We are all very worried about the plan.
I hope that the preservation of the countryside will always come first and foremost in councillors' minds and not some silly notions of renewable energy and saving the already doomed planet.
The massive overpopulation factors alone (often tied up with religious matters) have long passed that tipping point or end game figure.
Nothing we do now in Britain can reverse that. Also bearing in mind that China opens three coal fuelled power stations every week of the year, so why on earth are we sacrificing our beautiful Test Valley countryside when Britain's actions can now have no effect on the world balance of global warming or population?
Of course the silly green lobby doesn't want to admit any of these simple truths and your defeatist "white flag" also sounds like a death knell for our countryside.
Mrs Marion Childs, Bulbery, Abbots Ann.

If you're anything like me and have a horrible fear of flying, you can rest easy knowing that you don't have to travel the world to create a truly unique look. However, this Fashionista is sporting accessories ranging from U.S.A. to Vietnam and Thailand. I love how she took a simple cotton dress and paired it with colorful, earthy accessories to make a flawlessly eclectic look. Don't worry, creating an outfit like this isn't as hard as it seems!
Start off by searching for a simple cotton dress (a basic essential for every girl's closet). Dress this up or play it casual–no matter how you wear it, you'll always be looking chic and sophisticated. This Fashionista got hers from H&M, but you can also snag this similar dress from Gap. Pair this dress with your favorite tights and boots.
Now for the fun part, layering! When it's chilly, add a sweater or denim shirt like this Fashionista did. I love how such a simple piece can really make an outfit stand out.
Her accessories give her outfit a fun, bold look. My eyes are drawn to her Aztec scarf from Forever 21. It looks great with the denim and gives her a pop of color. Her scarf looks great with her book bag that she picked up in Vietnam. It's not everyday that you see a bag like this! This similar bag, also from Urban Outfitters, has a colorful and rustic look as well. Have you noticed her leg warmers? The pattern of these Ralph Lauren socks match almost perfectly with her bag. Leg warmers are an absolute must for the wintertime.
This fabulous Fashionista completes her outfit with some boho-chic jewelry. She collected her assortment of bracelets from Thailand. I love the combination of the colorful woven bracelets and the silver chain. Check out this leather cuff bracelet from Urban Outfitters. If you look carefully, you'll also see an Aztec necklace she layered with her scarf. This similar necklace from Tobi would also look great paired with a scarf.
Spotted: Bold scarves are predicted to be a key accessory for spring 2013. Check out Marc Jacobs's colorful statement scarf from New York Fashion Week 2012.

There is a tremendous need among the small business community for an online marketing service provider that helps them compete with the larger companies in the same industry. A client working with me is like having his or her own marketing department without the overhead expense. Since my primary focus is on creating, building, and managing a client's online reputation, I can help them create more positive exposure online, which subsequently means more business.

Pawleys Island is a town in Georgetown County, South Carolina, United States, and the Atlantic coast barrier island on which the town is located.
Pawleys Island population was 103 at the 2010 census, down from 138 at the 2000 census.[4] The post office address also includes an unincorporated area on the mainland adjacent to the island, which includes a commercial district along the Ocean Highway (US Route 17) and a residential area between the highway and the Waccamaw River. The island is on the southern end of The Grand Strand and is one of the oldest resort areas of the US East Coast. The town of Pawleys Island, though, is only on the island. The island lies off the Waccamaw Neck, a long, narrow peninsula between the ocean and the river, and is connected to the mainland by two bridges, the North Causeway and the South Causeway.
The earliest known inhabitants of the Pawleys Island area were Waccamaw and Winyah Native Americans. They called the area "Chicora", meaning "the land".
The Waccamaw tribe got its name from the nearby Waccamaw river. The river is referred to the natives as "coming and going" which influenced their name. These tribes lived off of the land and the sea. They embellished many amenities that it came with, including Oysters. The ocean winds and the abundant source of wildlife made it ideal for these tribes. Even today there is some evidence left such as "middens", these are huge plies of shells from the oysters that were harvested by these tribes. There are still a few Waccamaw natives left unlike their neighboring tribe, the Winyahs who are completely extinct. The Winyahs inherit their name from the Winyah Bay, an area known for its surplus of wildlife much like Pawleys Island. In the early 1700s the colonists from Europe began to set up markets and shops to barter and sell items with these tribes. This was short lived, soon fights began to breakout and many problems arose causing complete destruction of these tribes.[5][6][7]
The island became a refuge from summer mosquitoes because of common windy conditions. The town's namesake George Pawley owned the island during the colonial era, and sold portions of it to other planters seeking to escape malaria.
In 1791, two years after he was elected president, George Washington toured the Grand Strand, travelling The King's Highway in the unincorporated portion off Pawleys Island to visit the Alstons, wealthy planters who owned several plantations in the area. Rice fields occupied the Waccamaw River side of the neck.
With Hurricane Hugo in 1989, some island cottages were swept away and have since been replaced. The island bans commercial or industrial buildings on the island with the exception of a '70s condominium complex and a few grandfathered inns, including the SeaView Inn and the PCJ Weston House, which is now the Pelican Inn.[8]
The town government was incorporated in 1985. The water temperature is comfortable from May to October, and there is abundant fishing, crabbing, shrimping, and birdwatching most months of the year.
All Saints' Episcopal Church, Waccamaw, Cedar Grove Plantation Chapel, and Pawleys Island Historic District are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[9]
The Town of Pawleys Island is located just off U.S. Route 17, about 10 miles (16 km) east of Georgetown. The island itself, located at 33°25′47″N 79°07′18″W / 33.42972°N 79.12167°W, is a little over three miles (5 km) long and about a quarter of a mile wide. To the east-southeast lies the Atlantic Ocean. The island is a sandy barrier, with some dunes on the northern end up to about 15 feet (5 m) high. The southern end is very low. Behind the island is a tidal creek/marsh.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 1.0 square miles (2.6 km²), of which, 0.7 square miles (1.8 km²) of it is land and 0.3 square miles (0.8 km²) of it (29.29%) is water.
Fishing may be one of the biggest attractions on Pawley's Island. There are many businesses on the island that can offer a fishing experience to people of all experience levels. There are Inshore Fishing Charters[10] for fisherman of all skill levels. On the other hand, Tide Drifter Charters[11] offers inshore fishing, surf fishing, and fishing on the Georgetown jetties as well as family friendly experiences on the four hour sightseeing trips.
Barefoot Landing[12] is large outdoor shopping and entertainment center. Barefoot Landing offers shows, concerts, festivals, restaurants, but is mainly known for shopping. It offers many unique shops including Dixie outfitters, Ron Jon Surf Shop, and Earthbound trading company. Barefoot Landing is also home to the Alabama Theatre and House of Blues.

Local Ghost[edit]
Pawleys Island has multiple ghosts that are said to roam the island and surrounding area. The two most notable ghosts are The Gray Man and Alice Flagg.
The Gray Man[edit]
The Gray Man is said to have walked the coastline for nearly 200 years. His presence means almost certain danger for the island and the people who reside there.
There are several different stories of origin but the most commonly know is that in 1822 a young woman was staying on the island with her family when she received word that her fiancee was going to join her on the island to after seeing his family. Delighted with the news she prepared all his favorite dishes in anticipation of his arrival. When time came for him to arrive no one showed she waited hours only to be visited by her fiancees servants with the tragic news. As they were traveling to the house her fiancee challenged the servants to a race on their horses. As they raced down the stand he saw a shortcut through a marsh he decided to take it. When the horse first stepped foot into the marsh it cause him to stumble throwing her fiancee off the horse into pluff mud. Despite his servants efforts to free him he sank into the mud.
The news of her fiancees death drove the girl mad, and she spent hours walking along the Pawleys Island strand. One afternoon she saw a man looking out over the water as she got closer she felt her stomach tighten. When she got closer she was sure it was her love but suddenly a wave burst from the sea enveloping him and he was gone.
That night she had a dream of a small boat being tossed by waves leaving wreckage all around her. When she woke she told her family who thought she was mad and took her to Charleston to see a doctor, within hours of leaving a hurricane hit the coast and almost all of the inhabitants had died.[15][16]
Alice Flagg[edit]
Alice Flagg, whose brother Dr. Flagg owned Wachesaw Plantation, was raised in wealth and grandeur along the Atlantic Ocean. She fell in love with a poor, young man and they maintained a secret affair, and later an engagement.
Once Dr. Flagg found out about the lovebirds, he quickly shipped Alice away to a boarding school in Charleston.
While there, Alice grew ill with fever and a broken heart. She returned home and, while being prepared for bed, Dr. Flagg found her engagement ring on a chain around her neck. Consumed with bitter rage, Dr. Flagg tore the ring from Alice's neck, marched out onto the marsh and threw the ring into the muck.
With each day Alice grew sicker, but she never forgot her precious ring. She died, begging with her last breath for her ring. She is believed to be buried in the Waccamaw Cemetery, underneath a plain, white stone marked "Alice."
To this day, many people claim to see Alice wandering around her grave, searching for someone or something. Some have reported a slight tug or spin on rings worn around fingers and on chains. Legend has it that walking backward around Alice's grave on a certain night of every year causes the ghostly white figure to appear, searching for her lost love.[17]

Pistachios: The Wonderful Green Nut
Pistachios are another favorite nut of mine because they taste great and they are also lower in calories than a lot of the other nuts. You can get 30 pistachios for 100 calories which is a great bargain. They also have over 30 vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients, so they are a nutrient dense little green nut.
California is the land of nuts because they produce over 400 million pounds of pistachios (remember they produce 100% of US almonds, too!).
Pistachios are enjoyed around the globe:
- China: Pistachios are known as the "happy nut" because it looks like it is smiling. China eats the most pistachios of anyone in the world with 120 million pounds a year.
- India: Pistachios are known as a "hot food" and are believed to keep the body warm so they are eaten during the winter months.
- Russia: Pistachios are the food of choice to eat while enjoying a beer.
- France: Pistachios are served as aperitif, a light snack before a meal to stimulate the appetite.
Pistachios have numerous nutritional benefits like phytosterols and good fats as well as antioxidants. Check out this super cool diagram of the health benefits for various parts of your body. Pistachios are known as the "Skinny Nut" because of their significant protein and fiber content and good fats. They fill you up without filling you out.

By Carten Cordell and Kathryn Watson │ Watchdog.org, Virginia Bureau
ALEXANDRIA — An undercover video produced by James O'Keefe's Project Veritas paints scene after scene of police officers flummoxed by one simple question.
What should someone do if there is an intruder in their home and the police aren't there yet?
Striking at the heart of the gun control debate, the question was posed to police departments in New York, New Jersey and South Carolina by one of O'Keefe's undercover operatives. Law enforcement's responses ranged from buy a dog to lock yourself in a room and make some noise. Some advised buying a firearm, with one officer saying it could take up to a year to get a gun permit.
Virginia Delegate Bob Marshall, R-Prince William, said that while the video demonstrates the futility of some of these laws when it comes to self-defense, lawmakers are at fault, not the police.
The video "focuses (the debate), but it's unfortunate that the police are there," Marshall said.
"They are simply giving back the status of the law. They are not originating it, they are just enforcing an imprudent policy," he said. "Because they are the messenger, they are the ones who may get to receive the criticism from some of the public who watches this."
The video attempts to show the gridlock that certain firearm restrictions produce, limiting ownership and asking law enforcement to shoulder responsibility for defending the populace from violent crime.
Marshall said situations like those shown in the Project Veritas video represent a failure on the legislative level, not the enforcement level.
"Liberals want to develop a client state, not a citizen state. In a client state, you have to ask for somebody to do something," Marshall said. "You ask for all of these other services, well self-defense should be a service you can do yourself."
Some lawmakers saw O'Keefe's video as much ado about nothing — especially for the Old Dominion.
"I don't think there is any news here. Virginia's current gun safety laws are adequate to enable people to protect themselves in their homes," said Delegate Scott Surovell, D-Mount Vernon.
But even in Virginia, with some of the most gun-friendly laws in the nation, law enforcement officials don't have an universal gun ownership message.
Dana Schrad, executive director of the Virginia Association of Chiefs of Police, watched the video and said law enforcement officers in Virginia always recommend practical suggestions like locking doors and windows, keeping the lights on, and carefully answering the door to prevent an intruder scenario. But owning a gun is a "very personal decision," she said.
"Law enforcement advises those individuals who choose to own a gun to get professional advice on how to safely store firearms, especially if children are in the home, and to get firearms proficiency, judgment and safety training from a reputable firearms dealer or shooting range," Schrad said.
Marshall cited the recommendations of Gov. Bob McDonnell's Task Force on School and Campus Safety, created Dec. 20, 2012, in response to the Sandy Hook Elementary shootings in Newtown, Conn., as an example of ineffective governing. The task force did not recommend firearms training for school officials and advocated only for a feasibility study on the issue.
"This is the question that the gun-control critics just get completely lobotomized on, what to do in the time between the 911 call and when the police arrive? Just sit there like some witless tadpole with somebody popping everybody off?" Marshall said.
"And either he kills himself when the cops arrive or he lays his gun down, which is why I thought it was ironic that commission that the governor set up recommended longer jail times. They don't work for people that commit suicide at mass shooting."
Delegate Patrick Hope, an Arlington Democrat and an advocate of stricter gun control laws, said Virginia isn't like New York, where some of the video was filmed — and that's a good thing.
"Maybe this explains why everyone's coming to Virginia to buy their guns, because you don't have to have that kind of wait or anything to buy a gun," he told Watchdog.org.
Hope, who filed a bill prohibiting the possession of weapons in legislative buildings in the 2013 general session, said not even he wants to revoke citizens' rights to defend themselves at home.
"In Virginia, even I'm not advocating for anyone to have anyone take away their right to protect themselves in their homes with a handgun or a shotgun," Hope said.
But permitting firearms that propel lots of rounds in mere seconds and allowing the mentally ill and criminals to own guns without thorough background checks is a different matter entirely, Hope said.
"And that is the issue at hand," Hope said.
Even though the video makes its point at the expense of law enforcement, Marshall said, it should get people thinking.
"I hope people, if they watch this, think about the policy that is behind this. Tell your elected officials that maybe they need to rethink this."

Windows system fonts in client PC are not displayed in PDF report
Technote (troubleshooting)
Report author created a Report Studio report that explicitly set Windows system fonts such as 'MS Gothic', 'MS Mincho' and so on, however PDF report does NOT show these fonts in client PC even if corresponding fonts exist in client PC, while HTML report does.
The issue can be reproduced in Unix Server OS (AIX, Linux and etc). You may not see the same issue if BI server is running on Windows OS.
Cognos PDF engine does not render fonts to PDF if requested fonts are not installed in BI server machine or Cognos Configuration has not proper settings.
Note: Cognos assumes that your server has the proper license for using specific fonts set in user report and these fonts are already installed in server machine. If a requested font is not found from the location set in Cognos Configuration, Cognos report server (ReportService and BatchReportService) renders PDF files using a default font 'Andale WT' (<cognos_root>/bin or bin64/fonts/Andalewt.ttf) that has most of the Unicode characters for many languages. Default font can be customized from [Action] -> [Edit Global Configuration...] -> [General] -> [Default font].
Caution: Description in the following URL does NOT mean that Cognos PDF rendering engine can create PDF file with even any fonts if client PC side has corresponding fonts. BI server should have the fonts first and then you can choose whether to use embedding fonts for improving response time.
PDF Rendering
Unix Server OS (AIX, Linux and etc)
Diagnosing the problem
In IBM Cognos Configuration, check the below.
- Ensure that BI server has corresponding fonts in the physical location. [Local Configuration] -> [Environment] -> [Font Settings] -> [Physical fonts locations]
- To confirm the above 1, you may use search functionality as below.
- Go to [Local Configuration] -> [Environment] -> [Font Settings] -> [Physical fonts map]
- Click the edit button.
- Click [Add...] button.
- Click the edit button for [Physical Font Name].
- Ensure that entered font paths are correct.
- Click [Search Now] and see if required fonts are listed as search result.
Resolving the problem
In case you have the license for using fonts: Install corresponding fonts to [Physical fonts locations] set in Cognos Configuration.
In case you do NOT have the license <OR> In case font names are different between font set in report and font installed in BI server: Use alternative font using 'Physical fonts map' functionality as below.
- In Cognos Configuration, go to menu [Action] -> [Edit Global Configuration...] -> [Fonts] tab.
- Confirm that the font name you want to render is registered as Supported Font Name, and register the font name first if it does not exist.
- Go to [Local Configuration] -> [Environment] -> [Font Settings] -> [Physical fonts map].
- Click the edit button.
- Add mapping information ('Global Font Name' and 'Physical Font Name').
- Global Font Name: Enter the font name registered in above 2.
- Physical Font Name: Select the font name from the search results. Physical font will be used as an alternative for a global font.

Continued: Moore School
High marks for school-library media, social psychology
The university also was ranked No. 2 for its program in school-library media (School of Library and Information Science). And in social psychology (College of Arts and Sciences' department of sociology), the University ranked No. 4.
"These rankings are especially gratifying, in that they highlight our academic excellence," University President Harris Pastides says. "This news reaffirms our commitment to providing our students a top-quality education, thereby ensuring that we are providing a well-educated workforce for South Carolina and our nation."
The social psychology No. 4 ranking puts South Carolina alongside Cornell University and ahead of Duke University, Emory University and the University of Michigan, among others.
"The college is proud of the continued high ranking of the social psychology program in our Department of Sociology, a small department with a big national impact," says Mary Anne Fitzpatrick, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences. "This ranking recognizes the excellence of the faculty, their commitment not only to research but also to teaching at both the graduate and undergraduate level."
Likewise, Sam Hastings, director of the School of Library and Information Science, was pleased with the rankings, which included an overall program rank of No. 17, out of 62 accredited schools nationally.
"Being ranked No. 2 in the nation for our school-library media program validates our mission to produce the best qualified leaders in our field," she says. "It helps us compete with an ever-challenging distance education market that recruits students without regard to geographical boundaries. Our faculty and students are the best. ... Being in the top 20 is important and as we continue to improve and grow, we will continue to receive good rankings."

LifeLogger wearable camera spots faces, speech & text: Hands-on
Anybody can clip on a camera and call it a life-logger, but startup LifeLogger says its wearable goes the extra mile with its combination of face, text, and even audio recognition to make reviewing your "augmented memory" more meaningful. Showing at CES 2014 this week, LifeLogger's approach consists of a tiny, gum-packet sized stick camera weighing around 9g and which can record 720/30p HD video as well as stills, and a companion cloud service that does the heavy lifting by processing all that recorded content and allowing you to make better sense of it. We grabbed some hands-on time at the show to find out more.

What the heck happened to my fan???

Apparently I forgot to give everyone the final results. The cause WAS a faulty fan clutch. The distributor for the shop that I used said the fan clutch was up to spec when it wasn't. The clutch allowed for the fan to wobble and the engine compartment is tight enough to where the fan blades would knock and break off after hitting other parts of the engine, and then causing the damage. Total cost for the repair was just over $1,000.
On the positive side, the shop that I use in Columbia is extremely customer friendly. They COMPLETELY reimbursed me for the cost of the repair. All in all it was an unnecessarily painful process that I was lucky enough to have covered by a loyal shop. Thanks for the input and help guys!

Scott Gessler's emergency election rule shot down by Colorado Supreme Court
Secretary of State Scott Gessler overstepped his bounds when he issued an emergency rule on election night in November 2013 declaring that votes cast for ineligible candidates are invalid and shouldn't be counted, the Colorado Supreme Court ruled this week.
In a legal challenge brought by eight voters in the Adams 12 Five Star School District, the high court sided with the voters, finding that Gessler's rule conflicts with a state law that says such votes "are to be counted and recorded."
The story behind the legal fight begins with Amy Speers, a nurse who decided to run for the school board against incumbent Rico Figueroa. Both wanted to represent District 4, which includes parts of Northglenn and Thornton.
Speers's campaign was going well, but a week before the election, Adams 12 officials discovered that she lives outside District 4. The boundaries for school board members had been redrawn in 2012, though Speers didn't realize it when she signed up to run.

Even after the discovery, she refused to withdraw from the race. She says she encouraged people to vote for her anyway to send a message that District 4 supported non-conservative candidates such as herself.
But at 5:19 p.m. on election day, Gessler issued an emergency rule that blocked Speers's votes from being counted. The rule states, "If the designated election official determines, after ballots are printed, that an individual whose name appears on the ballot is not qualified for office, the votes cast for that individual are invalid and must not be counted."
Soon thereafter, a group of eight citizens filed a lawsuit against Gessler and the clerks, alleging that the emergency rule went against the law. They argued that the clerks should count Speers's votes -- and that if she won, the District 4 seat should be declared vacant and the school board should appoint someone to fill it.
On November 18, Denver District Court Judge Robert Hyatt sided with the eight citizens. Within the next few days, the counties that comprise Adams 12 released the vote totals: Speers earned 24,169 compared to Figueroa's 14,081. She'd won the election.
Gessler wasn't happy with that ruling. He appealed it to the Colorado Supreme Court, which heard oral arguments on January 29. On April 7, it issued its ruling (which is on view below in its entirety). In summary, the high court found that according to state law, the only instances in which a candidate's votes should not be counted is if the candidate withdraws from the race or dies. In all other instances -- including when a candidate is found to be ineligible -- the votes should be counted. The justices also disagreed with the part of Gessler's rule that says an election official can determine whether a candidate is ineligible. Only a court can make that determination, the justices ruled.
However, the members of the high court didn't weigh in on whether Figueroa won the District 4 seat by default or whether the seat should be declared vacant. They left that decision up to the district court in Broomfield, where Figueroa has filed an election challenge.
Gessler spokesman Rich Coolidge e-mailed us the following statement: "Unfortunately, five months after the election, parents still don't know who their school board member should be because of an administrative mistake. The Supreme Court's decision moves the debate back to the lower court and pushes the legal costs on the candidate."

I have to admit it: Some days I miss poker. It took a while. I think it may be like what they say about pregnancy: After enough years, you forget the pain.
I also miss messing around here. Again, it took a while.
I'm writing a lot, just not much that can go up on the blog. But I've started goofing around on Letterboxd, and writing movie reviews is a quick and enjoyable way to rev up. So I think I'll share those and cross-post to FilmChaw, and see what else happens. I keep meaning to get back to those time-delayed Oscars pieces. It'd be fun to do 2000-2002 and then maybe tackle the 80s.
Who knows? Maybe something else will percolate to the top.
Weekly Dose of Crazy and/or Awesome? Not out of the question.
Here we go, maybe.
It will be super-fun if this turns into one of those "I'm back" blog posts that hangs out at the top of a dead blog until it's five years old.

Plain grits consist of one simple ingredient -- crushed corn -- so they're a natural source of carbohydrates, iron and B vitamins. But whether they're healthy or not depends on how they're prepared. Sometimes low-fat grits are quickly transformed into a high-fat dish with added butter, cream or cheese.
You may hear grits called hominy grits or corn grits. Hominy is made from kernels of corn that have the bran and germ removed; then it's either cooked whole or ground to make grits. White and yellow grits have about the same nutrients, so nutritional values presented are for yellow grits cooked in water. One cup of prepared, enriched grits has 151 calories, less than 1 gram of fat and 32 grams of total carbohydrates. You'll also get 2.9 grams of protein and 1.6 grams of fiber. That means men get about 5 percent and women get 6 percent of their daily fiber and protein.
The B vitamins have a lot of jobs to perform, but almost all of them help convert food into energy. The amount of B vitamins differs between enriched versus unenriched grits. It also varies from one brand to the next, so check the Nutrition Facts label on the grits you buy to see how much you're actually consuming. Comparing generic grits in the USDA database, one cup of cooked, enriched grits has two to seven times more niacin, thiamin, riboflavin and vitamin B-6 than the unenriched cereal. You'll get 86 micrograms of folic acid in enriched grits, which is 43 times more than unenriched grits and provides 21 percent of the recommended daily value.
Iron's primary job is carrying life-sustaining oxygen, but it also helps make amino acids and supports the immune system. Iron is the one mineral found in different amounts in enriched versus unenriched grits as reported in the USDA's database of nutrients. One cup of unenriched grits has 0.39 milligram of iron, compared to 1.3 milligrams in the enriched variety. Men and women need different amounts of iron, so those values mean that men get 16 percent and women get 7 percent of their daily iron in the fortified grits. Grits also naturally contain magnesium and phosphorus.
Serving Tips
Grits can be simmered in plain water and served just like oatmeal, but depending on your individual preferences, you might find them to be bland. That's why many chefs cook them in a mixture of water and milk or heavy cream, and almost always add butter. A low-fat compromise for a breakfast dish is to cook them in water, pour some fat-free milk on top and add some cinnamon and honey or apples. If you're fixing grits for a side dish, try cooking them in low-fat and low-salt chicken broth. Then stir in any combination of onions, garlic, mushrooms, cooked spinach and tomatoes, and sprinkle a little Parmesan cheese over the dish.

Michael Hurley watched his world unravel in the wake of infidelity, divorce and failure. In August 2009, he was short of money, out of a job, and seeking to salvage a life that had foundered. Deeply in need of perspective, he took to the open seas in a 32-foot sailboat, Gypsy Moon. The story of his 2-year outward odyssey, deterred by rough weather and mechanical troubles, combines keen observation, poignant thoughts, and deeper introspection with glorious prose.
Once Upon a Gypsy Moon also presents a rare and much-needed point of view on the familiar spiritual-journey narrative. It offers a star-crossed love story wrapped inside a rollicking good sea tale, but it also has something important to say to the reader about relationships, faith and disbelief, life and death, love and marriage, and what really matters.
