I keep getting complaints that our internet is slow. We have a T1 managed Cisco router from AT&T. I can get reports that tell me that we are maxing out our bandwidth, but no information beyond that.
What tools do you use to investigate network bandwidth and speed issues? Are there any free or low cost means of finding out what web sites users are hitting during a slow down?

IT Journey, LLC is an IT service provider.
You could implement something like Untangle or OpenDNS (both free) to see what websites users are going to. You can also read through the logs on your firewall/router.
You could also use a protocol anylizer to see what kind of traffic is moving around. If your users are using programs like Google Earth, Kazaa, Napster, or other video and audio streaming sources, that is more than likely the cause of your problems.
If you use SIP service, you need to remember that your voice traffic will take part of your T1.
Do you do a lot of FTP'ing? FTP doesn't load balance/throtle. It will take everything it can get. If you have Layer 2 switches, you can turn on QoS and set the priority of your more important procotols (like SIP, or HTTP) and set things like FTP to be low.

If you want to get into packet analyzing, you can capture the traffic on that Cisco router (I'm assuming it's an 1841, that's what's normally used on a T1), then use WireShark to open the captured file and look at the packets. Check out the instructions here:
And the WireShark page:

I'd recommend setting up your router/firewall to send syslog information to a syslog server (Kiwi Syslog is a good free one http://www.kiwisyslog.com/) and then take those log files and parse them with a log analyzer.
There are several log analyzers out there - even some intended specifically for firewall log analysis. AdventNet Firewall Analyzer is one (http://manageengine.adventnet.com/products/firewall/index.html) but it didn't do so well on finding the bandwidth hogs for me. I finally ended up using Splunk (www.splunk.com). Its more of a general log parser, but it does the job well (albiet slow, but well). Just query it like a search engine and it will prompt with options to report on specific fields.

Hi Debi,
I recently had the same problem, and I think the fastest/easiest way to find your bandwidth hogs is Untangle. If you have less than 30 users you can use a Windows version that doesn't have to be installed directly behind your firewall. It could be on your workstation, for example. If you have more users, you have to give up a piece of hardware to install the Untangle onto - it replaces the OS and everything. But it was worth it for us. We were ready to buy another T1, and now we don't have to.

How important is persistence in weight loss? Persistence is extremely important in weight loss, just as it is in any endeavor in life.
When you first decide to lose weight, you are excited about making a change in your life, improving your health and your looks, and much more.
Losing weight is not always easy though, not because exercise and a healthy diet don't work, but because there are many other factors that can come in to play. One is the fact that you will likely hit a plateau during your weight loss journey.
When you plateau, your weight loss stalls and the scale doesn't move. This can last for a week or two, or even more if you are only a few pounds away from your goal weight. This can be frustrating, however it is especially important that you apply persistence and continue your healthy diet and exercise program during these times. You will eventually move past it if you persist (I've gone through plateaus several times myself).
Additionally, there may be times when you feel bored with your weight loss program. Perhaps you feel like you are "missing out" when you see everyone around you eating all of that tasty processed, and fast food. It is only by persisting through these times though, remembering your goals, and sticking to your plan that you will see the results that you are seeking. It's easy to say "I'll have just one", or "just this once", however I bet that if you truly could have just one, you would not be overweight in the first place. I know that's true for me, at least.
All of the times that you give in to yourself when no one is looking, when you think "no one will know", "what does it matter?", "It's only once!", all of these add up. The truth is, it doesn't matter that no one else will know, the most important person (you!) will know.
When you persist and continue to stick to your weight loss and exercise plan, then you will reach your goal weight and level of fitness. You will not only need to persist one or two times, but more than likely you will need to apply persistence 100's of times before you reach your goal weight.
Weight loss isn't always easy, however if you do persist, especially through those dark times when you are low on motivation and may feel dragged down or bored, your persistence will pay off and you will achieve your goals.
Wanting To Win Is Everything
©2006 by Max Steingart
Success is connected with continuous action.
It's largely a matter of hanging on after others have let go.
You're not finished when you're defeated,
you're only finished when you quit.
In fact, there's only one way you can fail,
and that's to stop trying.
Continuous effort, persistence and determination
will be necessary for you to succeed.
The odds are in your favor if you keep trying.
You can have a fresh start any time you choose,
for "failure" is not in the falling down, but in the staying down.
It's not over until it's over.
If you've got the courage to stick it out,
you'll attain your goal.
Winning isn't everything, but wanting to, is.
If at first you don't succeed, try, try, try again.

The shop in The Chase is dirty and rundown, and Mr. Biswas is distressed to see his savings dissolving as they buy necessary household items and stock for the small food shop. Mr. Biswas tries to be optimistic, saying that the place could be built up. Shama is unhappy and shows some hostility toward Mr. Biswas during the move, but determines to make the best of things.
Away from the Tulsis, Shama's attitude improves and they start getting along better. Both feel the situation is temporary, and Mr. Biswas does pretty well as a shopkeeper. When Shama wants to have the house blessed by her brother-in-law, the pundit Hari, Mr. Biswas resists at first, but eventually gives in to Shama's sighing, gloomy silences, and nagging.
The ceremony is conducted in a tent in the yard, and the Tulsis leave Hanuman House to attend the festivities. Among her family, Shama again becomes a stranger to her husband. Mr. Biswas complains to Mrs. Tulsi about the shortcomings of the property, telling her that he needs more room. Instead of offering to help him, she suggests dividing the room with sugar sacks, and Mr. Biswas responds with his usual sarcasm by saying that everyone should just live in coal barrels instead of building houses. Again he feels useless and small, and he thinks about leaving Shama and the Tulsis but does not know what he would do.
After the house blessing, Mr. Biswas begins to have money problems. He spent a great deal on the food for the festivities, and now a new shop is beginning to attract his old customers. Additionally, he has sold to too many customers on credit and they have not settled their accounts.
In anticipation of her baby's birth, Shama goes back to Hanuman House to wait. Anticipating a boy, Mr. Biswas compiles a list of boys 'names, but the baby is a girl, and he is given no part in naming his own daughter. Seth and Hari have given her the name of Basso, but Shama intends to call her Savi, rejecting Mr. Biswas's suggestion that they call her Lakshmi.
When Shama returns to The Chase after three weeks, Mr. Biswas feels happy to have his family with him. One day a man named Moti comes into the shop and paints a terrifying picture of Mr. Biswas's financial future if the people who owe him money do not settle their accounts. Moti offers to connect Mr. Biswas with Seebaran, a lawyer who can provide assistance, and asks for five dollars to show he is serious, with no mention of further cost. Shama is angry at this tactic, they quarrel, and Shama takes Savi and goes back to Hanuman House. Once Seebaran has sent out letters, Mr. Biswas receives payment from some of his customers, but Mungroo, the most troublesome nonpayer, counteracts by bringing Mr. Biswas up for damaging his credit. It costs him one hundred dollars to call off the action, and another one hundred dollars in lawyer fees. He has to go into debt to cover the expense, and it takes him several years to pay it off completely.
Three years after Savi was born, Shama has a son. Mr. Biswas hasn't prepared names for this baby, so he agrees to Seth's suggestion of Anand. Savi is sent to stay at Hanuman House and Mr. Biswas worries that someone might be mistreating her. When they put a brace on her legs, he worries that it may be some form of torture, but he finds that it is intended to straighten out her bowlegs. Mr. Biswas has never investigated the possibility that anything could be done, so his attitude to Hanuman House changes.
He visits more often, holding his tongue and trying to win favor. He gradually becomes accepted, and even enjoys a certain license, being invited to contribute to discussions with his comical commentary. He enjoys a new status in the house and begins to feel more comfortable and self-assured at Hanuman House while feeling more of a nonentity at the shop. He still privately abuses the Tulsis to Shama, and she says he is a hypocrite for not saying those things to their faces.
Pregnant again, Shama tires of life at The Chase and wants Mr. Biswas to close the shop and move back to Hanuman House. They argue for days on end, and a pronounced hostility develops between them. At one point, he hits her, and they are both astonished. She leaves, and he waits for her to make the first move toward reconciliation, but he does not hear anything from her.
When he calculates that his third baby is almost due, he closes the shop and goes to Hanuman House. He gets a cool reception from Shama, and she introduces him to his baby daughter Myna. When Shama asks if he is going back that night, he knows he hasn't intended to go back. Seth asks what they will do with the shop, teasing him for being taken in by Seebaran. He suggests "insuranburn," which would effectively get rid of the shop and get him seventy five to a hundred dollars for the goods. Seth offers to employ Mr. Biswas at Green Vale, where the Tulsis have a sugar estate that needs a driver to manage the laborers. Shama begs him to take the position, and Seth says he will arrange the insuranburn.
Away from the Tulsis, Mr. Biswas and Shama enjoy a better relationship. Although she does not have any power of her own in the marriage, she is able to get Mr. Biswas to agree with her ideas through passive aggressive behavior and persistence, so she gets her way and the house is officially blessed. Ironically, the blessing seems to have the opposite of the desired effect when Mr. Biswas and the shop immediately begin to suffer financial problems.
When Mrs. Tulsi makes overtures of reconciliation during the house blessing festivities, Mr. Biswas uses the opportunity to complain about the poor conditions in which he and Shama are living. He has not forgotten that, deprived of a dowry, he is still entitled to some sort of recompense for marrying into the family. Mrs. Tulsi offers no real help for his complaints, and her manner as she talks to him, as always, makes him feel powerless, as though he is under a spell. Once the spell is broken, as always, he reacts in anger and makes outrageously absurd comments that offend her.
As he struggles to get back to financial health, he makes another bad decision by agreeing to use the services of Seebaran to help him collect his debts. This is a decision that backfires, like so many of his decisions, and it puts him into even more debt. Seth's idea to solve the problem by burning the store and collecting the insurance suggests that there is a strain of corruption in the righteous Tulsi family.

Wrong Side of the TracksEdit
The country of Haiti is considered the loser side of the island of Hispaniola, the place that makes the Dominican Republic look good. Haiti is great at one thing and one only: sucking. It consistently ranks near the bottom of all loser countries.
The above comment was entered by someone ignorant of Haiti's importance in world history, Haiti's rich history or a hardened racist.
It's FrenchEdit
Haiti's history starts with its colonization by France. France bought the left (or gauche) side of Hispaniola from Spain in 1697 for two jugs of wine and a wheel of cheese. There was probably no one living there at the time but a few French pirates. Slaves were brought in to mine for croissants. At one time, Haiti was the most prosperous island in the Caribbean (especially for the French), making the Dominican Republic look like the loser side of the island. From the colony, France got a lot of coffee and sugar; from France, Haiti got the "derriere à manche" also known as "Le Shaft."
"Uppity" SlavesEdit
After France had their revolution--because the Americans had had one and France was jealous--Haiti's slaves wanted a better deal. France gave rights to non-whites who were not slaves. The slaves were not happy being slaves. The slaves made a secret deal with the devil to overthrow the French. Well, actually it was a voodoo ceremony, but as Pat Robertson says, any religion that is not Christianity is actually Satanism. Because of this pact, and earthquake devastated Haiti 200 years later. That's just cause-and-effect people.
France, as expected, surrendered immediately and slavery was abolished, allowing France, now known as "New Haiti," to begin immediately looking down their noses at American slavery. After Napoleon restored the name "France," he sent an army to Haiti which, not surprisingly, lost to the Haitian army. Haiti decided they could now be independent.
Haiti said "au revoir" to the French and started opposing slavery all around, which did not make them friends. Various people became royalty of Haiti since everyone enjoys regicide so much. Haiti had to compensate France for taking their land back from them, which left the country deeply in debt.
Coming of AgeEdit
Haiti finally finds its place in the Americas when it is invaded by the United States in 1915, after Haiti ran out of kings to kill and started offing presidents. You're not really a Western Hemisphere country until you've been invaded by the United States. FDR wrote their constitution. The U.S. built schools and roads and an army, despite Haiti's complete lack of oil reserves. There is no record of the U.S. benefitting in any way or doing anything wrong. The U.S. leaves in 1934, no longer able to be so generous because of the Depression. More lies, you racist and ignorant idiot!
First off!, I have no sense of humor nor understand irony nor have the vaguest notion of what truthiness is. With that said, Haiti was coming of age long before the US. Haiti helped the US in it's Independence, war of 1812 (kicked some more British arse there) and the US civil war. Additionally, because of Haiti's victory over Napoleon the US was able to purchase the Louisiana Territory from France, for pennies. Also, Haiti kicked the Spanish out of Hispanola and trained the assisted Simon Bolivar liberate south America from Spain.
The problems with Haiti stem from the fact that France and the US could not deal with the fact that blacks were kicking their butts and came up with an embargo and indemnities which crippled Haiti. The US has not historically been a good neighbor to Haiti. Oh and that 1915 venture....that was to steal the gold that Haiti had in it's treasury. Your radius boys also brought some Jim Crow bs to Haiti, but since the locals do not engage in it, your boys headed north to Cuba and created a cluster F ther, until Castro had enough of the bs.
As for your Robertson - just an irrelevant Moran who is an A H.
Fast forward, the US, through oil companies have found Haiti's petro and are now trying to steal it. Good thing that the world is watching. With Castro, Chavez and Lulu as friends no one is going to steal thatnoil.
The scariest truth of the 21st century is an idiotic moranic racist is redneckville with s keyboard who thinks he know something about other cultures when he cannot discern his mouth from his arse. Go educate yourself and try again moron.
Modern HistoryEdit
In 1957, Dr. François Duvalier brought stability to Haiti by winning an election and then volunteering to become president-for-life. His son became president-for-life in 1971. His son's name was "Baby Doc" Duvalier, who lent his name to a brand of inexpensive, Canadian wine, Baby Doc.
Some more stuff happens and then Haiti elects Jean-Bertrand Aristide president in 1991. Aristide is little too commie-ish, so the U.S., under George Bush, Sr., arranges for Aristide to be overthrown.
Bill Clinton is elected U.S. president and restores Aristide to power. At first, Clinton considers Aristide a bit too commie-ish, too, so he offers to restore Aristide as long as he passes a test. The U.S. gives him two choices for a new prime minister if he is restored: a communist or an international banker. Aristide picks the communist. The U.S. asks him, "Are you sure?" Aristide says, "Oui. Oui." The U.S. repeats to him, "Are you really sure?" Aristide replies, "Yes, I am sure." They go back and forth for a couple of weeks like this, until Aristide finally gets the correct answer and picks the international banker to be his prime minister. Democracy is restored to Haiti, broadcast live on CNN.
George Bush, Jr. is elected and, coincidentally, Aristide gets overthrown again in 2004. The U.S. is nice enough to fly Aristide out of the country. Aristide currently eats bon-bons in South Africa, hoping that Hillary Clinton wins the next election, so he can be restored to power. There was an earthquake. Shit was so cash.

Steven James Derner
Funeral services for Steven James Derner, 27, of Milford, were held Thursday, Sept. 13, 2012, at First Lutheran Church. Steven James Derner was born July 12, 1985, in Spencer, the son of John and Jody (Morrisette) Derner. He lived his entire life in Milford, graduating from Okoboji High School in 2004.
Steven was baptized and confirmed at Union Memorial Church in Milford. He enjoyed 4-H, where he showed cattle at the Dickinson County Fair, and won grand champion steer at the Iowa State Fair.
Steven was a teddy bear with a huge heart. You could expect him to greet you with a great big grin on his face and the best hug you could find in town. Above all, you would find that big smile inside the tractor while he was doing field work, whether it be plowing up a field or spreading manure to fertilize the next growing season. Most of all, he loved to run the heavy construction equipment, and it didn't even matter if the land needed to be moved or not, Steven was there to move it. He always looked forward to working long days in the tractor alongside his family members. Steven also worked many summers at Shell Rock Products landscape block plant.
One of his favorite vacations of all was being on the company cruise with his friends and family. Along with all the work that Steven put in, he loved traveling with his family and friends in search of the great blue marlin. He was the luckiest one of all, catching numerous sail fish and several marlin. A proud uncle, Steven always looked forward to spending time with his nieces, Danica and Landrie. As a youngster, he was a tractor pedal pull champion, but as he got older, Steven learned that tractors have engines. Steven loved to operate vehicles, cruising Lake Okoboji on his snowmobile in the winter and by boat in the summer. He never turned down a poker or football night with the guys (GO PACKERS!), and loved to watch professional wrestling. When the day was over, he always took the time to head up town and have a drink with the best of his friends, throw some darts, and shoot a round of pool. Steven was deeply loved by his family and friends. He will be greatly missed and always remembered.
Steven passed away Sunday, Sept. 9, 2012, at his home in Milford at 27 years of age.
He is survived by his parents, John and Jody Derner; brothers: Justin Derner (his wife, Shelly, and their daughters: Danica and Landrie) and Brad Derner; sisters: Katie Derner and Megan Derner; and his grandmother, Carolyn Morrisette
Preceding him in death are his grandparents: Marvin and Patsy Derner, and James Morrisette; and uncles: Bill Derner and Mike Derner.
Online condolences may be sent at www.turnerfuneralhomes.com
Arrangements were under the direction of Turner Jenness Funeral Home in Milford.

CFD model of an explosion
Hi all,
Im currently working on a project, which with legislation requires us to offer explosion protection on the ducting, as Methane will be in the air mixture.
Im looking at ways to visually model this.
Can anyone offer any guidance or help on whether this is able to be displayed in a CFD package.
A company I used to work for, Applied Research, is/was doing a lot of research on blast effects. You could look at the website and, I believe, it was the San Antonio office that was doing the work. I know they had a simulation code written. They might be able to give you some direction.

Cooked Chickpeas or Garbanzos (Slow-Cooker)
READY IN: 4hrs 10mins
Recipe by duonyte
Chickpeas you cook yourself are so much nicer than the canned ones. Plus, you can control the salt content. And using the slow cooker makes it fool-proof.
Top Review by PalatablePastime
Works as advertised! Makes 3 packs for me of 2 cups each. I refrigerated one to use in hummus tomorrow and the other two I packed in freezer bags to enjoy later. Thanks for sharing-
See Discussion:2 Reviews
Ingredients Nutrition
Directions See How It's Made
- A 3 1/2 or 4 quart slow cooker is ideal. Place the chickpeas in the slow cooker, pour in the water and cook on high for 4 hours.
- Check to see whether they are tender enough for you - they should not be mushy. If done, drain.
- Refrigerate for a week, freeze for up to 3 months.

Mental Health
Have Mental Health Questions? Ask a Psychiatrist Online
Why do I have so much trouble connecting with people as an adult? I have a form of Autism (AS). Lately become more depressed and so angry. Even my parents have noticed it. In college I don't have people to hang out with outside of school and I just feel so disconnected to people and society in general. When I do get close I end up pushing them away so I stay alone. What are ways to change and or cope with this?
Hello- Thank you for asking the question. I have over 30 years of experience working with individuals, couples and families & am happy to reply.
I am sorry to hear about the problems you have in connecting with others. As you state- there are known reasons why this is particularly difficult for you and there are also many reasons why this is difficult for persons with no co-existing issues that make relationship connections easier.
Individuals who experience confusing, frightening, or broken emotional communications during their infancy often grow into adults who have difficulty understanding their own emotions and the feelings of others. This limits their ability to build or maintain successful relationships. Attachment—the relationship between infants and their primary caregivers—is responsible for:
Scientific study of the brain—and the role attachment plays in shaping it—has given us a new basis for understanding why vast numbers of people have great difficulty communicating with the most important individuals in their work and love lives. Once, we could only use guesswork to try and determine why important relationships never evolved, developed chronic problems, or fell apart. Now, thanks to new insights into brain development, we can understand what it takes to help build and nurture productive and meaningful relationships at home and at work.
More detail on this is provide here as well as exercises and self help strategies you can employ to cope and deal with this effectively.
Traits that create lasting relationships area addressed here:
Review the material and if you have additional questions, feel free to ask......I am happy to help.
Kindest regards, Bill
I appreciate your Positive Rating So that I receive Credit for my time.
Thank you
I will rate it and you will get credit, I need more time to think. Give me a couple daya, need to think what to ask. You will be rated...good.

2012 Porsche 911 Video: Testing in South Africa
With a planned debut at this Fall's Frankfurt Motor Show, Porsche has just released some must-watch video of the new 2012 911 undergoing final testing in South Africa.
Previous to this sneak peek, Porsche had released a selection of images, but they didn't provide near the level of detail as this new video.
When it finally does arrive, look for a car that's slightly longer than its predecessor with roughly four more inches between the wheels, although just a 2.2-inch increase in length overall. Carrera models are expected to get a 3.4-liter flat-six with 350-hp, while the S model will deliver a larger 3.8-liter engine producing 400-hp. Perhaps the most talked about addition, however, is a 7-speed manual transmission.
Acceleration times will drop slightly, while the new car is expected to post improved fuel economy numbers by as much as 15 percent. Porsche has even boasted the new 911 Carrera can lap the Nurburgring in 8:04, with the Carrera S running the Green Hell in 7:50.

The Future of Early Child Care and Education.
Created to raise both statewide awareness of quality child care, as well as the quality and professionalism of each center it serves, the Quality Start model points the way to a bright future for child care in Louisiana.
Quality Start is a voluntary star rating system for licensed child care centers designed to increase the quality of child care and early learning for all children throughout Louisiana. Both Class A and Class B licensed centers may choose to participate and can earn up to five stars based on meeting standards for quality. Even though the rating goes up to five, all star levels signify excellence. For instance, a rating of three stars indicates that the center is well above current state requirements and is an outstanding center.
The Quality Start Model has been designed to support an enhanced child care system for our state. Parents and the public will be able to understand the quality of care being provided in the child care centers in their communities. They will gain more understanding of the valuable work that child care providers do in assisting families in nurturing the development of our state's young children. Providers will have a way of communicating the thought and care they put into creating a child care program that goes well beyond care and becomes an early education program. Quality Start should help raise the awareness of the whole community about how vital a quality child care experience is for children.
This model sets standards for child care providers to aspire to, and there will be substantial supports provided by the Department of Children & Family Services – Division of Child Development and Early Learning. This assistance will come in the form of scholarships for staff education, training on specific standards, increased reimbursement for children in the Child Care Assistance Program and tax benefits through the School Readiness Tax Credits.

Kylo Malcovich was born in Sweeden on July 17 in the fifteen hundreds. He was captured by a group of thevies, and smuggled into China. By the age of twleve, he began training in the art of kung-foo. By fifteen, he ran into Nightmare. About to be killed, something happened. He unleashed a blast of energy into Nightmare, knocking him down, dropping Soul Edge. Kylo touched it, and was changed forever. Nightmare said, "You are not a normal boy. But Soul edge seems to like you. Your life is spared, today. Next time, you're not so lucky!"
Nightmare ran off with the cursed sword, leaving behind a frightened Kylo. By age 31, Kylo became a fighter. He uses anything he can find, but a staff is his specialty. He became friends with Maxi, Kilik, and Xuangua, because of their fighting style.
He wears a robe to cover himself. He has one eye, blonde hair, and speaks with a rough accent. His clothing is all black, because of the shame and hatered inside of him.
Friends with Maxi, Kilik, and Xuangua. Ran into Taki and Mitsurugi once. His enemy is Nightmare.
"I don't care who you are, but you're still my enemy." -before any fight.
"I must go, and leave you to die." -after any fight.
"You, are the one I hate." -before fighting Nightmare.
"It is done. My purpose is over." -after defeating Nightmare.
Stage: Proving Grounds.
Music: Nightmare/Seigfried's theme.
Weapons: Uses staff, nunchuck, grieve edge, Chinese sword, dagger, and rapier.
Even though his family is a mystery, they say Kylo is the last of his village.
Kylo was blessed by Soul Calibur at birth.
Kylo only used his energy blast once. And that was with the first fight with Nightmare.
Kylo mysteriously vannished after defeating Nightmare. But his spirit lives on.
Some even say, that he took Soul Edge for himself. He became evil, and was granted power by it. It also, gave Inferno a new host.

DETROIT (AP) Former Detroit Pistons star Rick Mahorn and his wife have filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy following failed investments, a drop in value of a home they bought and efforts to repay an IRS debt.
The case filed Dec. 8 is pending in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Detroit.
Mahorn was a member of the Pistons' 1989 championship team from the "Bad Boys" era and coached the WNBA's Detroit Shock before the team relocated to Tulsa, Okla. He's currently a Pistons radio announcer.
The 51-year-old Mahorn tells The Detroit News for a story Thursday he's trying to find more work.
Public records show that since 2006 the IRS has filed liens for almost $214,000 in delinquent taxes against Mahorn.
Mahorn's lawyer Scott Zochowski said the tax debt has been repaid.

Last night, my family got new cell phones (I'm loving mine, by the way). Mom and dad have phones that have keyboards that slide out, and both asked me how to text.
Mom was not too shabby, with a simple "hi".
My dad, however, texted me this great message: "You have very very wet hands."

Charity Auction for ProPublica
Ah, technology! I'm holding an eBay auction right now for eight paintings of people reading, with 100% of the money going to the nonprofit ProPublica. But eBay's having a glitch right now that is making it hard to browse the paintings online. (I actually got someone at eBay on the phone–they are perplexed and working on it) Meanwhile, I'm posting a link here to every painting. It's a bit tedious to look at them this way, but what can we do about tech glitches? Also, it's for such a good cause! So here you...read more
Reading on the Street
Okay, he's just looking at his phone, but he might be reading some very important investigative journalism from ProPublica. The sale of this and seven other paintings benefit them–go here to bid. (Oh, and I'm pretty sure he knew how good he looked in those green pants with that red bag and that orange wall across the street.)read more
Reading in the New York Public Library
The most beautiful room in the world. I wrote a few very solid chapters of my first novel there. Proceeds benefit ProPublica–go here to bid.read more

Time for a giveaway!
I'm giving away a book club in a box over on my Facebook page. You don't have to be in a book club to win–just head over there and get all the details.

Woman in Black, Reading
This is part of a series of paintings of people reading that I'm auctioning off to benefit ProPublica. Go here for details. So this was a painting that surprised me. I was working from a photograph of a woman in a pink sundress, with the bright, happy, green Washington Square Park in the background. I often paint on black gesso, so there was a stage early on when all you could see was her figure against the black background–I hadn't yet put in the dress, the bench, or the park. I loved it so much at that stage that I wanted...read more
Reading on the Fire Escape
This is another painting I'm auctioning off to benefit ProPublica–go here for details. The only reason I ever keep a painting is because I'm so pleased with it that I'm sure I'll never paint another one as good. I kept this one for years for that reason. I just loved it. Even when I thought I was pretty sure I could paint it all over again and be just as satisfied, I wasn't sure–so I did. I painted another version of it, from the same photograph, at a small size. And I thought, "Yeah, that...read more
Reading on the Lawn, Bryant Park
It's time for another round of paintings for a good cause! I'm auctioning off eight paintings this week to benefit ProPublica. Go here for details. Every time I go to Bryant Park (which is right behind the glorious public library in New York City, if you've never been) I just walk around taking pictures of people reading–some on their cell phones, some on computers, and some even on real books. It's a beautiful place to be on a summer...read more
It's here!
I'm so happy to share the cover and an excerpt from the third book in the Kopp Sisters series! It's coming in September, and is available for pre-order now everywhere books are sold.

Manhattan Beach
Manhattan Beach is not in Manhattan. It's in Los Angeles. It's a charming little town along the coast that nobody can afford to live in. But you can go there, and walk along the water, and take pictures! That part's free. Anyway, this is just a little 5 x 7 postcard-sized painting that posted on eBay as part of a charity auction to benefit Planned Parenthood. They get 100%–I'm doing it all for them. Nice to raise some funds for a good cause! Go take a look–there are 11 in all. I plan to keep doing this once a month, so...read more

An incremental backup on Unix is based on the file modification timestamp which does not need to be changed when doing the backup.

I stayed 4 nights, even though it is an old building i found it very querky and it was very clean. Staff where very friendly. No luxuries or tv in the room and they are small but you dont really need it anyway. I had a very pleasant stay and i would go back. It has a very good location as it is on a quiet street but also close to everything.

Fantastic 40+ Mums(1000 Posts)
Mum of 2, DS1 nearly 4yo and DD2 almost 11 weeks. I hope to find here advices from experienced mums so that I can avoid mistakes... I made some with DS1 and my life sometimes is hell, it is hard to unlearn wrong behaviour, so hard.
At the time being, DD2 is a very sweet baby, she is easy to decipher, cries are always related to some kind of discomfort and I managed to learn what they mean, or almost. Only one issue with her ATM is that she rejects bottle feeding even with expressed milk. I'd like to be able to escape a bit from the house to get a haircut or a facial. And I am sure DH would like to feed her sometimes too.
I struggle a bit more with DS1, who is usually a good boy, energetic, happy and loving. But after school, getting him to take his bath is a battle and falling and staying asleep all night are big issues. The problems did exist before but now with the recent arrival of his sister, the intensity has increased. Or maybe they are the same but to me they seem bigger and need to be addressed quickly so that I can look after both without raising my voice.
All advice are welcome. I need help here.
Also I'd like to invite all the graduates from the Fantastic 40+ Mums to be thread to join. You have been truly fantastic and so supportive during my pg. I hope to be able to keep on sharing with you this wonderful parenting adventure.
Friday 21 is good for me, Midget. Any one else ? Goat, FF ?
Bought Jamie Oliver's 15 min meal. Need a food processor now...
Well turns out it was a bug with DD2. Got proper poorley Sunday PM, just after in-laws arrived. Temp just under 40 with copious vomiting. Bit better today, but last night was a joke. Just imagine DD2 coughing and vomiting seemingly constantly, DS vomiting full feed just after finally dropping off, covering me, him and bed, and DD1 wetting her camp bed as she woke up not knowing where she was having been turfed out of her bed by MIL. DSIL was meant to be sleeping in with her in case this happened but decided DD breathed too loudly so had moved bed to be with MIL. This morning they said, oh, we thought about getting up to see if you needed help. DH had to deal with the girls as I was feeding. He was not impressed he did not want to go to work having not slept well. Welcome to my world for the last 6.5 years!
DS brought up his feed mid afternoon. Apparently this is common for some time after bronchiolitis. It really upsets me.
VQ what a horrible time you had ! Poor you. How long are your in-laws staying for ? I have been hiding from ex work colleagues since I came back, very bad behaviour from me, they just wanted to meet the new addition and it is vety kind of them, but I am just not ready to deal with visitors, let alone in-laws. Hope tonight will be less hectic for you.
Thankfully they went lunchtime. Had I known she was ill I would have cancelled them. I am not sure tonight could be any worse, but that is what I thought the night before
I have yet to go in to work. Really must, but not until boy is well. I will probably wait until after his jabs as the clinic where I work is full of unhealthy clients.
blueblackdye Are you back in the UK now?
Is that you midget?
BadMissM, yes I am back in London, a week already, I am surviving ! Actually it is not as bad as I feared, because DS has grown and behaves better and little Anastasia is an angel baby, DH also promised to be back around 6.30 to help, all is good.
VQ, when do you have to go back to work ? Or is it just a visit you are paying them ?
Just a visit. Not planning to go back until after summer holidays if finances will allow.
blueblackdye welcome back! Hope London treating you well! I have to come down twice in the next few weeks as I have to come for some tests...
Vq. Lordy missus u have it so rough lately. Sending u super hugs. Hope the girls feel better and little boy is keeping the precious boob juice down. Go into work when you are ready and relaxed. You are a fab mum and deserve a massive glass of booze well some booze due to bf and a fuck off massive slab of choc.
Gettinge it together a bit more thank God stress free day. The swing and dummy are ace. Still sleeping with him for a couple of hours in the morning thenchange play. Got Christmas songs on iPod so sing songs for a bit. Into swing with dummy gave me 45 mins of tidy up and Christmas card writing. Why I bother given out at work I dont know. Not one of em has asked me how everyone is. I have texted no reply. Wankers.
Any way swing ace and dummy even better. Not going to use for bed time dont fancy being woken up every few mins as I has dropped out.
Midget u got a new name?
Bbh. I would love to start cooking soon. Love Jamie oliver
BadMissM, it would be great if you are around on Fri 21, we are trying to meet up in Central London.
Evening all - hope you are all well, but know some of you have had a rough time lately :-( special thoughts esp for VQ - so sorry things are so shit for you at the moment.
Would love to come to London but sadly the 21st is my last day at work - after this date I will have more time on my hands, although not sure how good I will be with public transport by then!
I'm 35 weeks this week, still reasonably mobile, but getting a lot of BH and baby movements getting more painful. Each BH reminds me of the things I haven't bought/prepared yet for the baby and how little time I have left. And I've done nothing regarding christmas yet - pretty crap really.
DP normally away all week but has some sort of 'flu' so is at home, coughing everywhere, lying on the sofa and generally being a bit of a PITA. Hard to feel sympathy when I'm still doing a 40 hour week and driving 80 miles a day - nasty woman that I am. Interesting that he managed to get off his sick bed to work on his bike for a while, but has done cack-all regarding baby stuff.
Ooh - I see that Jamie Oliver has shown his face on this thread! Think he left the mums-to-be thread in a huff when the talk turned to Mr Craig instead (Jamie was very popular for a while).
Omg. Baby monkey slept for 3.5 hours it's a christmas miracle '!!!!
Hi eagleray good to hear from you. Not long now honey. Christmas shopping for me has been on my phone from bed feeding most early mornings. Thank God I had a baby in 2012 not 2000 I would have had to go to the shops
Hugs to vq xxxxx
Yeh for boob milk in a bottle and ewan. Extra grass for you my purple leggy friend! '',
Still cant believe he slept that long. !! Boobs are huge also so he is feeding like a mad monkey so extra full again. He likes the fuller boob less work for him. Lazy boy !
Good lord vq you have been having a horrible time of it. Hugs and sympathies. I hope you have a really boring and uneventful 2013, too! (DH has asked for this...)
Lots of posts since my last. I spent yesterday running feverishly around my old house trying to pack and sort stuff. Then the removal man turned up and said he had todo it yesterday afternoon as he was away today. What the?... Cue shell shock and a slight meltdown as I tried to direct them, continue sorting stuff, and juggle a rather grumpy baby who was not impressed at proceedings. Then the guy turns round and says he can do it today after all and will come back. Argh! Oh well at least it gives me time to go finish the kitchen. The garage here will burst its seams. Combining two households is interesting! (though DH doesn't get a look in in my lovingly kitted out kitchen. Possessive, me?...)
BG has voice back
unfortunately along with an impressive rattle when he breathes not happy about that one.
Hello eagleray nice to see you again, good luck with the last few weeks. Is this your first?
Friday 14 or 21 would be possible. I like the idea of skyping as well. Though we have to make sure babies don't compare notes on how to keep mummies up at night.
Goat. Good luck with the move. Are u moving far? hope the move goes easy and the man in the van is hassle free
Thanks just waiting for him now. Actually have already moved, just to bigger house on other side of town. DH had to move most stuff while I was still in hospital with bg. Guy deserves a raft of medals.
Ah yes, what is it about us silly mummies that makes us move house when babies are due?? (speaking about myself here ...) have been an even sillier mummy today, took baby s out for brisk walk, got to town to discover massive leak. Was cursing new size 1 nappies when i discovered id taken her out without one on!!! also forgot spare babygros so have cobbled together a makeshift outfit made from lots of vests and socks, and dried out pramsuit under dryer. what a s* mum i am. Or a very very tired one
Greetings. Tentatively suggesting things may be improving. DD2 at nursery (thank fuck!). She is fab but very spirited. Very! I am outside the school awaiting DD1. It is cold. DS is with my mum. She was very suprised to be trusted. DS has kept food down since last puke 3pm yesterday. I am feeding him little and often so he swore at me as I left, before promptly falling asleep. His breathing is much better but still coughing.
We didn't plan on moving when baby was due, but the vendors really dragged their feet (including pulling out at one point) so we were a couple of months late completing. Coinciding of course with BG being a couple of months early!
Nightmare about forgetting the nappy! I forgot a change of clothes once, and of course BG did the biggest vom of his little life. Another mum lent me a bright pink babygro that fitted her well-upholstered 6 month old. BG was about 4 1/2 lbs at this point, so you can imagine what he looked like! With his little white trousers with feet, he was rather reminiscent of a dodgy Olympic weight lifter...
vq hooray if things are improving. Don't say it too loudly!
BG has had a leaky nappy (change one) and a vomathon (change two) so far tonight. Is now wide wide wide awake and talking to the door handle
sorry goat didnt really think you planned to move on due date! just amazing how many of us end up on this pickle, moving house / major building work are, i guess, the ultimate forms of nesting ... I was much more foolish as I knew I'd be 7 months pg, and had my head in sand about moving stress, and no idea how impossible unpacking would be with a velcro baby
baby seaside is crying every time she poos / farts in the evening these days poor poppet - I wonder why? maybe she has baby IBS like mummy
bythesea. Hope baby hasn't got ibs. I have that bloody awful bowel pains. I read if they have formula they can get a bit constipated.
Today I feel a new women. I feed bm at 7 was a sleep by 8 and so was I after dp tucked me in. He has tucked me in for twenty years how cool is that. Anyway I woke to ewans red belly glow in bm basket and dp in bed he told me to go back to sleep. I thought he had come to bed. Oh no he had done a super ninga on me. I.
What happened was I slept while at 10 took baby monkey out his bed changed him gave him expressed milk and put him back. When I woke up with him crying it was 1:00. Yes ladies I got to sleep for 5 hours! !!!!!!! Dp is lovely. Not slept that long since august. Midget. I have no excuses not to get on that x trainer today
Vq how is little ones chest today.
After reading all your nappy bag dramas I went and checked mine. I still had a new born baby gro in there. He would have been a bit restricted in that. Weigh day Thursday. Hoping for 12 lbs at least. I am amazed how quick he is growing. O brushed his hair earlier David Beckham had nothing on his style.

Navistar International Corporation (NAV) announced its plan to launch the next-generation clean engine system – In-Cylinder Technology Plus (ICT+) – to meet 2010 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (:EPA) emissions standards. The technology will also support the greenhouse gas (:GHG) rules before its requirement in 2014 and 2017.
The new technology will help Navistar provide the cleanest and most fuel efficient diesel engines in the world, which would be beneficial both to the customers and the environment. Use of liquid urea in the new engine will help in mitigating emissions of nitrogen oxide. Nitrogen oxide is one of the pollutants responsible for asthma.
All set to achieve the 2017 GHG standards, Navistar incorporates a previously proven and certified after treatment technology, which will be available in 2013. To provide uninterrupted supplies during the transition, the company will be delivering the current EPA-compliant trucks in all vehicle classes.
Navistar has also shared the new technology with EPA and the California Air Resources Board (CARB) to ensure the supply during the transition to ICT+ technology.
Warrenville, Illinois-based Navistar manufactures and sells commercial trucks, mid-range diesel engines, buses, military vehicles and chassis for motor homes and step-vans. It also provides service parts for various trucks and trailers. The company is one of the largest truck producers apart from Daimler AG (DDAIF) and PACCAR Inc. (PCAR).
The company reported a loss of $137 million or $1.99 per share (excluding special items) in the second quarter of fiscal 2012, in sharp contrast to a profit of $102 million or $1.30 per share recorded in the corresponding quarter last year. The results missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate.
Revenues went down 2.9% year-over-year to $3.3 billion, also falling behind the Zacks Consensus Estimate. The decline was attributable to a decrease in sales in Engine and Part segments, which was partially offset by higher sales in the Truck segment.
Currently, Navistar retains a Zacks #5 Rank, which translates into a short-term (1 to 3 months) Strong Sell rating. We have a long-term (more than 6 months) Underperform recommendation on the stock.

Best Of :: Food & Drink
We used to think that a worthwhile place to enjoy the British tradition of midday tea was as hard to find as a cool patch of shade in our town -- until we discovered Teeter House. Tucked away in downtown's Heritage Square, this posh spot offers several different tea ceremonies five days a week. We go straight for homemade scones and Devonshire cream, and always order traditional finger sandwiches and a pile of the candied walnuts made fresh here every day. Dessert is fussy, just the way we like it: teacakes, petit fours, and wee éclairs just like Mum used to make (or would have, had she been British). Teeter House also serves a four-course evening high tea on the fourth Thursday of every month; otherwise, it's open Tuesdays through Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., and on Sundays from noon to 4 p.m.; reservations are recommended.
It seems so obvious. Arizona's indigenous foods -- delicacies like fresh local fish, wheat, melons, pistachios, olives, chiles, citrus and squash. Yet amazingly, no chef has really tried it here, until this year, with James Beard Award-winning chef Janos Wilder. Wilder, already famous for his innovative French-Southwestern Janos restaurant in Tucson, has brought us fine dining drawn from our state's Native American heritage. How authentic is it? The chef works with Pima/Maricopa Indian farmers to harvest the finest of their 35,000 acres of land and aqua farms on their reservation surrounding Kai.
Dishes come looking like earth and sky, and tasting of heaven. They're inspired all on their own, but made even more magical with Mexican, Pacific Rim and European touches. The olive oil that starts our meal is grown and pressed on-site, and dotted with sesame and pumpkin seeds. We slather it over superb crusty bread, crunchy and sweet-tart with apricots and pumpkin seed, or cranberries and hazelnuts. Rack of lamb comes rubbed in chunky pecan-crust mushroom-infused cornbread pudding, and a mole sauce fashioned from ingredients supplied by Native Seeds SEARCH (a Tucson-based nonprofit that protects and cultivates ancient indigenous agricultural methods). Lobster fry bread is lavish, the thin dough capped with an entire four-ounce Maine lobster tail, roasted corn, avocado and garlic butter.
Beautiful food, straight from Arizona -- that's A-O-Kai with us.
The cooks at Pho Bang continue to craft the most outrageously decadent Vietnamese dishes in town. This long-standing restaurant doesn't get hung up on pretense -- dishes come rapid-fire out of the kitchen, sometimes sloppy on their plates, sometimes with nary a smile from our server. But the prices are so low, and the food so cunning, we never quibble. Besides our favorite pho (15 varieties), there's an impressive array of exotica like canh chua ca (catfish soup with pineapple and vegetables in a spicy lemon sauce), or tom va bo nuong vi.
How cool is it to sit down at our own tabletop grill, and be presented with a large plate circled with whisper-thin slices of lightly oiled raw beef, whole shrimp, sliced onion, chopped scallion and peanuts? On the side is xalach dia, an array of sliced carrot, cucumber, pickled radish, whole scallion heads, mint, cilantro and lettuce, alongside plates of rice paper sheets and butter. In fact, everything at this cozy hole-in-the-wall is remarkable.
Chef Mahmmud Jaafari knows his Persian cuisine. He also knows his Mediterranean, Italian, American, Mexican, Cajun and vegetarian foods, and even a smattering of Oriental influences. The result is one of the most exciting restaurants in this town, with cooking that is defined most simply as Middle Eastern. This is knock-your-socks-off caliber, with appetizers like pourani (parboiled spinach blended with yogurt and deeply perfumed with garlic, onion and olive oil, spooned with homemade whole-wheat pita bread triangles). You'll crave every bit of his from-scratch cooking (even pita is homemade), like the oil-free minestrone dusted with Parmesan, and a salad of angel hair pasta and romaine tossed with feta, Parmesan, scallions, tomatoes, avocado paste and mountains of garlic. There are complex stews, tender lamb gyros and elegant salmon with grilled eggplant-wrapped asparagus topped with dill cream on saffron rice. This is a place you must find for yourself: Persian Garden truly is a magical culinary carpet ride.
Readers' Choice for Best Mediterranean Restaurant: Pita Jungle
We're all for eating healthfully. We just don't want to think about it -- all that balancing of nutrients and calories, and then, does the stuff even taste good? Happily, Soma has done the work for us. Everything on the extensive breakfast, lunch and dinner menu is broken down by protein, carbs, fat, fiber and calories. Everything is fashioned from lean meats and monounsaturated fats, with virtually no oil and lots of good-for-us grains and veggies.
But even better, the chef who created the menu is nationally acclaimed James McDevitt, so all the Asian-American treats taste terrific. This is real food, like a charred filet of soy-garlic marinated top sirloin (just 350 calories), or center cut pork chops with Chinese mustard applesauce, sweet potatoes, spinach and caramelized onions (798 calories for two meaty chops). For breakfast, we can feast on crepes stuffed with apple-cranberry tart, or a pita bulging with apple-sage sausage and scrambled eggs (50 percent egg whites). Lunch might be mahi-mahi tacos with ginger-carrot vinaigrette, or lettuce wraps, with three bundles of moist chicken chunk breast, sliced toasted almonds, string-thin carrots and bean sprouts. For dinner, we can choose thrills like sake glazed chicken with jasmine rice and spinach, or pork tenderloin with ginger-plum barbecue sauce.
With gourmet food like this, in such an upscale, bistro-style setting, we sure don't feel like hippies. And with such body positive food, we sure don't look it, either -- hippy, that is.

This is the first place to which we direct diners when turning them on to the distinctive cuisine that is Southwestern. Many people think our Southwestern signature is standard Mexican stuff. Some think it's, gasp, Tex-Mex. Many think it's cowboy cookouts. Too many think we're all just sitting out in the desert here munching on cactus and lizards. One taste of the items on Windows' stunning menu, though, and they understand: Southwestern is all about elegance, high style, and dramatic pairings of regional ingredients. Real Southwestern cooking is as intricate, artistic and stunning as the colors of a mountain mesa at sunset.
Start with cornbread-crusted crab cakes spiked with mango, avocado and citrus, or a sweet onion and lobster tamale with roasted corn salsa. Move on to Arizona mixed greens tossed with toasted pepitas (pumpkin seeds) and tangy-sweet prickly pear vinaigrette. Indulge in entrees like grilled veal chop with ham hock hominy cake, vegetable salad and chipotle demi-glacé, or pan-seared trout with yellow corn grits, artichokes, roasted corn and garlic cream sauce. Splurge, finally, with citrus and pine nut cake filled with goat cheese, orange caramel and cajeta ice cream.
Windows wows us with its wine list, including selections from Mexico, Chile and Argentina, and with its specialty margaritas fashioned from boutique mescals and fine tequilas. The decor is as delicious as the food, too, lush in sand-colored furnishings, regional pottery and paintings, panoramic golf course views and the warmth of a carved travertine fireplace.
Food this fine doesn't come cheap, but for something as special as this Southwestern sensation, it's worth every precious penny.
