This is a new song off the album Heaven and Earth. Proud to say I am the first to cover it! I fell in love with it when I first heard it. The message is AWESOME! It's telling us to finally take that last step and give everything we have to God, to completely surrender and let everything go. Now is the time. I figured the chords and lyrics off a recording so some of it may not be exact but its as close as i could get it. hope you like it. Here are the lyrics: The battle line is drawn, its all in black and white Hope is pulling forward in fear from the line, this time Its time to make a move so what will you decide The clock is ticking on dont let it pass you by its time, its time The time is now for lifting souls The time is now for letting go From your skin to your core Let light and love come rushing through the door Its time to make a stand So put your heart in greater hands From your skin to your core Let light and love come rushing through the door Youve learned every song, memorized the verse youve took the bread and wine and even bought the shirt? but its time Its time to hold your shield, its time to draw your sword less evil, resistance? oh lord, oh lord, oh lord Its time, its time Sisters, brothers, he's?, and lovers Come on come on, eternity Turn your faces from fine eyed places Heaven's grace will set you free
the, time, is, now, phil, wickham, heaven, earth, new, acoustic, guitar, cover, kayla, holden, xoguitarcrazyox, christian, worship, god, jesus

OK, I don't have much time so I'll make this quick. "Twilight: New Moon" is a vampire movie following the story of Bella, who is having a hard time coping with her Love's, Edward, death. Kristen Stewart plays Bella, and teen girl crush Robert Pattinson(whom I find an unimpressive actor) plays Edward.
I can say right off the bat that this movie is pretty bad. But I'll try to point out its strong points.
When it comes to acting, this movie is not very strong. Kristen Stewart is an okay actress, but she just seems a little over dreary and boring at times. sure its the point of her character to be like this, but she makes an already pretty boring movie even more uninteresting. Robert Pattinson has a much more minor role in the movie than he does in the first one ("Twilight"). He spends most of the movie as a sort of ghost, haunting Bella because she comes to the point where she is so lonely that she begins to hallucinate that Edward is around her even though he is in a very far away place. Pattinson is OK, but he seems a little robotic at times in his acting. Sort of like he is speaking without any emotion. Taylor Lautner, who plays Jacob, a Native American Werewolf, Is OK as well. He seems a little more settle and believable then the rest of the cast.
The movie is directed by Chris Weitz. From what I have seen, he is fairly new to directing. This and "The Golden Compass" are his only works I have seen, and so far I am unimpressed. I can understand that this story may be hard to make into a movie, but the movie was just a little "messy". The direction seems to make the movie move slowly. There are few intense scenes and when there are intense scenes, they leave you wanting more. There is also a large portion of the movie that is tries to depict Bella liking Jacob in an intimate way, but there just seems to be no chemistry. You feel like a large portion of the movie is spent just dawdling around and not moving forward.
Also, considering how anticipated the movie was going to be, I would've expected cool CGI werewolves. I ended up with unrealistic werewolves that just seemed to be wolves that were a little larger than usual. I mean, not only do the vampires glow like they've been bedazzled in sunlight, but now werewolves are just plain wolves? Theses movies, and probably the books as well, break all conventional traditions in werewolves and vampires in a negative way. Not making them more cool, but instead less interesting.
Oh, and I don't want to ruin anything, but I'll just say that (this sentence is a spoiler in some ways) Taylor Lautner is like Josh Hartnett in "Pearl Harbor", he is a "hole filler" for Bella, or just a temporary guy until her true love gets back with her.
After you watch a good movie, you should want to watch it again or maybe want more so you can further enjoy the movie. At the end of "New Moon", I had absolutely now interest in watching it again and I had no feeling of anticipation for the next movie.
I understand if this review was sloppy or bad, but it is my first so please forgive me and allow me time to build up better reviewing "skillz" as the kids say these days.
I have to give this movie a 2 out of 10, or "Seriously, don't waste your time or money."

Helping others break the chains of debt is a passion of mine. Our debt freedom journey has been very freeing to us, and even though it isn't quite finished yet–we see the light at the end of the very dark tunnel. We know that where we once were is not a place we ever want to be again. And a place that we know others don't enjoy, either.
Debt is not a fun topic to explore. But I firmly believe that there is power in numbers. Realizing that there is a way out and knowing that you are not alone in this journey is part of the battle.
Over the next few weeks {and months} we will undergo the Finding Freedom Boot Camp and together we will regain control of our finances!
Finding Freedom Boot Camp will Officially start next Thursday {March 1st!} and will dig into the nitty gritty!

Image Upload Preview not responding on android.Asked by MUNRegistration on September 05, 2016 at 12:05 PM
When ever someone clicks the select image button on android cellphones, the button doesn't respond.
JotForm Support
Unfortunately, I can't seem to replicate the problem. I tested it on my personal Android Kitkat device and was able to use the Image Upload Preview widget on your form.
Here are some screenshots:
1. I used both the default browser and Chrome on my Android device. When I clicked the "Select Image" button of the "Image Upload Preview" widget
2. Depending on the device, it will display a list of options that you can select. In my case, the "Android System" allows me to use the camera app while the "Documents" allows me to view the files using a file explorer.
3. After taking a picture using my camera app, I clicked the "Upload Image" button.
4. You need to wait for the upload process to complete or finish before proceeding.
I tested it on a simple form I created, here it is https://form.jotform.com/62484565833970, and was still able to use the widget properly.
May we know what exact Android OS version and the browser you are using? May we also know if you have tested it on other Android devices? So far your form and the widget works on my test cases.
We'll wait for your response.

Monday, April 09, 2007
Strong rumours of another daily soap going off air later this month are doing the rounds. This time it is 'Kumkum- Ek pyara sa bandhan', the Star Plus' afternoon show which has been running for more than five years now. Rumour is that the show is not getting enough TRPs. Hence the production house BAG Films and the channel has mutually agreed to shut down the show with a positive climax. Sources in the industry also say that even Juhi Parmar is not happy with her image being typecast as 'Kumkum', as she is always recognised by the character rather than as an actor.
Rubbishing the rumours, BAG films spokesperson Snehangshu Dasgupta says: "The channel is very much happy with the show's TRPs and we are shooting continuously and there are no plans to close the show even after the completion of 1000 episodes." He goes on to add, "In fact we are planning a celebration for the super success of the show."
Recently a leading daily carried a report on Hussain Kuajerwala sending feelers to Balaji for a comeback in 'Kahani....' as Chirag, a character he played years back in the same show. The article also said since 'Kumkum' might go off the air very soon as Hussain has started looking for another daily soap. Nothing official on this story either. But it has created trouble for yet another daily soap after 'Durgesh Nandini' and 'Jeete Hain Jiske Liye'.

A recent analysis by WalletHub finds that the Houston metropolitan area ranks first in the annual media salary for STEM workers.
STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) workers in the Houston metropolitan area make more money than STEM workers in other metropolitan areas in the United States, analysis from personal finance website WalletHub revealed.
Based on comparisons of 100 U.S. metropolitan statistical areas across 17 key metrics, including "professional opportunities" and "STEM-friendly environment," WalletHub found that the Houston metropolitan area (which also includes The Woodlands and Sugar Land) STEM workers ranked first in annual median wages.
Houston's metro area also ranked first in last year's analysis. Here's how Houston's metro area's most recent analysis compared to 2015:
Overall, the Houston metro area ranked 26th as the best metro area for STEM workers (33rd in professional opportunities and 23rd in STEM-friendly environment). The Seattle metro area (which also includes Tacoma and Bellevue) ranked first.
Despite the oil and gas industry's troubled year, which impacts STEM opportunities in energy hubs like Houston, workers in STEM fields can still make comparably profitable salaries.
Valerie Jones
Careers Editor, Rigzone
According to the National Association of Colleges and Employers' (NACE) 2016 salary survey, Class of 2016 bachelor's degree graduates have a starting salary of $52,569, which is 3.8 percent more than overall salary reported for the Class of 2015. Primary drivers for the increase are in the majors of computer sciences, engineering and mathematics and statistics.
In NACE's 2017 job outlook survey, which explores U.S. companies' hiring expectations for the Class of 2017, employers plan to hire 5.8 percent more new graduates than they did one year prior.
But here's where the oil and gas industry rears its head again – hiring freezes and business conditions were given as the cause for some companies who reported plans to decrease hiring. Last year, 42 percent of companies who were cutting back cited the oil and gas industry downturn as a contributing factor.
But, with the worst of the downturn behind us and a positive projected growth of STEM opportunities across the United States, there's reason to keep encouraging young people to pursue STEM fields.

"Staff made up for tired hospital"
About: Pilgrim Hospital Pilgrim Hospital Boston PE21 9QS
Posted by Anonymous
I recently visited Pilgrim Hospital for a colposcopy; the hospital was very tired, but the staff were excellent. The doctor and nurses were extremely caring, they made every effort to make me feel comfortable, but yet extremely professional. I was made to feel valued. I hope that my thanks can be passed to the team on duty on the afternoon of the 9th February

The house that Jobs built is the latest company linked to a potential Twitter acquisition, along with interactive entertainment software giant Electronic Arts. Jon Wilcox reports.
FaceBook, Microsoft, and Google have all apparently tried and failed, but now Apple has been linked to a potential acquisition of micro-blogging website, Twitter.
Reports of the $700m acquisition talks have surfaced on several sites across the Web, including TechCrunch, which reports a deal could be reached ahead of the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference in June. If accurate, it would mean that Apple has valued Twitter $200m higher than FaceBook, which is rumoured to have had a $500m deal rejected earlier in the year. Not bad for a Web 2.0 website that is yet to reveal a business model.

Just want to know how they determine who gets to be an admin? Is it because of posts or certs?
Aug 25, 2009 at 12:52 UTC
I is more effort than time. I was an admin within 3 months of getting involved in the forum. Be active and show that you will contribute and the folks in orange will recognize it.
This topic was created during version 4.1.
The latest version is 7.5.00101.

You ask a community manager and tell them what you would do to be successful as an admin. Tabrez would probably be your best contact if you want to become a group admin
Aug 24, 2009 at 3:14 UTC
Spend several years developing your skills in a particular field, or multiple fields. Spend untold hours answering related questions in the Community. Then read what Justin wrote above.
Aug 25, 2009 at 2:09 UTC
Or be British and become an admin right away because no-one else wanted the job! ;)
Aug 25, 2009 at 12:47 UTC
Okay thanks for the answers. just curious on how one becomes an admin in the spiceworks world. I guess I should start providing more input and support so that in "several years" ill be ready.

Nothing for nothing, but let's be real here. At your current pace it will take several years.
You have four contributions to your name since you joined in March 2009; two in the Water Cooler and two in this thread, and you are asking about becoming an admin?
You haven't shown the Community anything, let alone anything of value to it. If you are just holding off on posting because you're shy then you should realise that that is one of the beautiful things about the internet, it can be anonymous allowing you to be RaptorTX915 and me to be Limey. Find something that you are interested in, such as surveillance, and write a How-To. You could rewrite any of a thousand easily found howto's on the internet on using a webcam as a surveillance camera, but you have to put the effort in somewhere.
Aug 25, 2009 at 1:24 UTC
Well the reason I havent been able to contribute is because I am extremely busy. I am currently doing CCNA coursework, tyring to learn how to program, wrapping up my associates degree in business, and at the same time I have to perform my Duites here at work which include anything from setting up ptz cameras to deploying inventory software. So yeah, Its not that im shy or anything. But you're right , I will start exploring the different groups aside from my WATER COOLER group. Thanks for the advice Limey and Justin.

Donald Cuvelier
Donald M. "Don" Cuvelier,
Wenatchee, WA.
Our family suffered a great loss when Don passed away on Wednesday, September 19, 2012, at the age of 77, with his family by his side. He was born in Cherokee, IA on January 29, 1935, to Clem and Gertrude (Miles) Cuvelier. At the age of 17, Don joined the Navy and served a little over three years on the USS Boxer. After moving to Wenatchee in his early 20's, he married Sharon Wilcox on October 2, 1959. They had three daughters, Lisa, Lori and Lynn. He later met and married Helen Berry on October 13, 1975, and gained two stepchildren, Debbie and Allen. Don spent many years working for the Washington State Department of Transportation as a road striper and snowplow operator, before retiring in 1987. He then spent a few years working for Mitchell Trucking and Paving. Anyone who knew Don, knew he was happiest with a fishing pole in his hand. In earlier years, he enjoyed taking his three daughters on some of those trips. We were so happy, sitting quietly by his side waiting for the fish to bite, at least until the candy was gone. Watching sports was a passion from childhood and it seemed there was a game of some kind on the TV at all times. We were so happy when he got the chance to travel with his wife to Seattle and watch the Mariners play. As his grandchildren came along, he could hardly wait to spend time with them. As they grew older, he would take them fishing, or just hang out. He would talk of them often and remember just about every cute story about them. When his great-grandchildren started to arrive, his heart was in his eyes every time he looked at them. This was a man so full of love and he never ended a conversation with his family without saying, "I love you."
The last five years of Don's life were spent residing in Colonial Vista Long Term Care. He made some very special friends while living there. He entertained staff and residents alike with his jokes and unique humor. We would like to express our thanks to the staff for the great and loving care he received during his stay.
He is survived by his wife, Helen of East Wenatchee; his three daughters, Lisa Mitchell (Jody), Lori McCauley (Randy), all of East Wenatchee, and Lynn Boydston (Matthew) of Vancouver, WA; two stepchildren, Debbie Berry of Chico, CA and Allen Berry of Spokane, WA; nine grandchildren; and five great-grandchildren; one brother; and one sister. He was preceded in death by his parents; and two brothers.
A Memorial Service will be held at Telford's Chapel of the Valley, Saturday, September 29, 2012, at 10:30 a.m. Concluding Services and Inurnment will follow at Evergreen Memorial Park with Military Honors. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the American Legion, Post 10, Wenatchee. Arrangements are by Telford's Chapel of the Valley, East Wenatchee.

I met this guy on Tinder. We talked a few times and he wants to hang out soon. I dont know what his intentions are but I'm not ready for a relationship yet since I still have feelings for this other guy and I am trying to get over him. Should I let him know ahead of time or wait until he brings it up, if he does? What would be most fair? I want to have fun with other guys but I don't want a commitment yet while my heart is still healing.
Should I tell him I still have feelings for someone else and I'm not ready for a commitment?
Have an opinion?
What Guys Said 1
" I want to have fun with other guys but I don't want a commitment yet while my heart is still healing."
Just go out with him and feel him out. If you feel he has genuine feelings that are moving faster than you are, i'd let him know as honest as you can.
he will appreciate this.22|00|0
What Girls Said 1
Tell him you don't want a commitment yet as you've just got out of a relationship.
But don't tell him it's because you have feelings for the other guy, don't make it obvious he's a rebound or he'll stop being your rebound, and the best way to get over someone is to focus on someone else! :)00|00|0

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 17/2/2010 (2743 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Apparently nothing brings out whiners and weenies like an Olympics. I expect Australia's Dale Begg-Smith's name to become synonymous with both at least as far as his former country of Canada is concerned.
From the weather blues to the British media who seem to have made bashing Vancouver a national pastime the critics are getting a good workout on Vancouver's behalf . (Good luck in 2012 England, payback's a you know what. . .)
But thankfully for every Dale Begg-Smith there seems to be 10 Olympians who put the sport back into sportsmanship.
There are the Shannon Bahrkes and Cindy Klassens and Clara Hughes, who seemed more excited for a teammate's good fortune than they would be had they won a gold medal themselves.
That's sportsmanship.
There is Swiss snowboarder Olivia Nobs who won a bronze medal in Ladies' snowboard cross Tuesday. She was on the podium for the flower ceremony and they were about to announce Canadian Maëlle Ricker as the gold medalist. Nobs, started waving her arms for the already roaring crowd to give Ricker a bigger ovation.
That's sportsmanship.
Later in the day, when Canada was playing Switzerland in women's curling, a Swiss stone which should have been knocked out further hit Canadian skip Cheryl Bernard in the foot and stopped. The Swiss team could have been über-competitive and made the rock stay where it was but they quickly, without being asked, stepped up to acknowledge it should be further away and moved it themselves.
That's sportsmanship.
And then there are the Maëlle Rickers of the world, who train their butts off for years and realize their Olympic dream and when it's finally happened, can only giggle in disbelief and remind everyone why she started snowboarding in the first place.
"It was so so fun."

There is still going to be pressure. There are more challenges ahead. But luckily we can see them, and the smart ones among us will prepare for them and prosper greatly for it. You can be as successful in your chosen profession as you want to be if:

text: A hierophant was the person who brought the religious congregants into the presence of the holy, or whatever they felt was holy according to Bernice Summerfield. It was a term from Ancient Greece a contraction of taheiri ("the holy") and phani ("to show"). On Zordin they became active after the Great Leader was destroyed. (AUDIO: Private Enemy No. 1)

As a kid, I preferred to stay with my dad's mother rather than my mother's. After all, she had a big black Cadillac, loved to drive as far away as Shreveport to shop and eat out, and had plenty of free time to devote to me. I'd spend the night with her, and we'd lie in bed and read raunchy historical novels such as Forever Amber. Occasionally, she even told me a dirty joke.
My other grandmother didn't drive. Instead, she stayed home and took care of her huge family, some of whom always needed a place to live until they "got on their feet." Her outside activities consisted of playing the piano for the nearby Methodist Church and teaching a long line of students to play hymns. Boring!
When I decided I wanted to learn the piano, at least this grandmother didn't make me play hymns. Instead, she introduced me to classical music and helped me master Tchaikovsky's melodious "Waltz of the Flowers" and Chopin's passionate etudes, which I adored. I also recall her mentioning the opera Aida for some reason, as well as the fact that her younger brother taught at SMU and wrote books of poetry. He was even the poet laureate of Texas once. Still, none of that made her seem very interesting.
The years passed, and I went to college, hitchhiked through Europe and the Middle East, and experienced some of the adventures I'd read and dreamed about.
After I finally settled down to teach English to college freshmen and sophomores, I attended a feminist writers' workshop in Aurora, New York, and my attitude toward my grandmother began to change. (Having Judy Grahn there as our featured writer certainly didn't hurt.)
I began to write poetry, discovered that my grandmother's poet brother was gay, and started paying attention to the stories my mom and aunts had long been telling about my grandmother's difficult early married days on the farm. They said her music had kept her sane. Then I discovered a letter she wrote to my granddad before they were married in 1912, and the closet door creaked open.
In this early poem about her, I quote from her letter to my granddad. He'd proposed and given her an engagement ring, and she wrote him to explain why she was returning it.
In 1912
My grandmother wrote,
"I can't understand why I yield to you,
believe that I love you and say so, act so,
then doubt my own heart,
wonder at my actions when you are gone."
He courted more ardently.
She yielded.
Fifteen years older, he plucked her
from her world of girls' boarding school,
daily piano practice,
ice-cream socials, singing in a quartet,
university education.
He deposited her on a small farm in Texas
with onions to plant in her garden,
cornbread to cook on a wood stove,
five cows to milk each morning and night,
a black washpot to make lye soap in.
She bore him nine children,
which thickened her 18-inch waist;
bore with her mother-in-law who called "frivolous"
her thirty outing diapers,
her subscriptions to Ladies' Home Journal and Etude—
declared "Pshaw" about her frequent washing
of babies and ammonia-smelling diapers in #3 washtubs—
who let her,
take care of the chickens
and the flowerbeds.
No wonder she doubted her own heart.
After I wrote that poem, I dug around in the family archives and uncovered some letters from my grandmother to her college roommate. I'd read about romantic friendship by then, in Lillian Faderman's classic work, Surpassing the Love of Men: Romantic Friendship and Love Between Women from the Renaissance to the Present, so I didn't immediately consider my grandmother gay. But something about the phrasing in her letters gave me pause and spoke to me in a language I understood.
My grandmother no longer seemed boring. I began to imagine what her life was like and what it could have been, and my novel The Storm was born.

God's Hidden Glory Revealed!
Filed under: day of judgment, Resurrection Hope, salvation
And the glory of Jehovah shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together, for the mouth of Jehovah has spoken. – Isaiah 40:5, Green's Literal Translation.
The scripture quoted above tells us all humanity, all flesh will someday see the glory of Jehovah. By saying "all flesh" the prophecy refers to more than just a few of humanity as so many might think. Today only a few who are walking in the path of light even get a glimpse of God's glory. — Matthew 7:14; 20:16; Hebrews 11:13.
The Bible tells us of a future time that a new heavens and new earth will take the place of the present order of things, of which Satan is declared to be the prince, ruling secretly and unrecognized by his subjects. — 2 Peter 3:7,13; John 12:31; Revelation 12:9.
The general tendency of the carnal mind, however, would limit any favor from Jehovah to only a few, often of a certain sect or religious group. It is Satan who desires us to present a distortion of Jehovah's love, justice, wisdom and power. (2 Thessalonians 2:9) If it were not for the blinding influence of Satan, we believe that most could grasp the full meaning of the divine assurance that Jesus Christ tasted death for every man. (2 Corinthians 4:4; Hebrews 2:9) They would be able to understand that God's provision is for a day of judgment for the whole world, every member of the race, aside from the Church, which has its judgment during the present age. (Acts 17:31; 1 Peter 4:17) Without Satan's blinding forces, they would be able to understand that a resurrection has been provided not only for the just, but also for the unjust. (Acts 25:15) They could further understand that all that are in their graves will hear the voice of God and will come forth, the few to the life resurrection, but the great mass to the resurrection of judgment, of testing, of trial for life or death eternal, in that day when the glory of Jehovah is to be revealed and all flesh will see it together. — John 5:28,29.
In that day Jesus will indeed be the true light that will enlighten every man. (John 1:19) In that day when as Immanuel, his Kingdom will be under the whole heavens, in that thousand-year day in which the Son of man will come in the glory of the Father and sit upon the throne of his glory, he will gather all nations before him, and judge the living and the dead according to the things that are written in the books of the Bible, according to his own words in which he instructed that love is the fulfilling of the law love to God and love to our neighbor. — Revelation 20:4; Isaiah 29:18; Matthew 25:31-32; 22:37-40.
This same rule of love will judge mankind during the Millennial Kingdom and will test each member of Adam's race, in order to identify each person, including all those who dead in Adam, either as a sheep or as a goat, in the favor or disfavor of the Judge. — John 5:28,29; 12:47,48; Romans 5:12-19; 1 Corinthians 15:21,22.
At the conclusion that judgment day, the sheep, having been thoroughly tested, will be rewarded with the gift of life everlasting; while the goats, having been given a full opportunity to repent and accept Jesus, will be rewarded with the penalty of divine disfavor — everlasting destruction from which there will be no recovery, since there is not to be another sacrifice for sin. — Acts 3:32; Matthew 25:46; Hebrews 10:26.
In conclusion, those who now hear and understand these things will more and more allow their hearts to feast upon the good things of their Heavenly Father's Word, which reveals to them the glorious attributes of his divine character. For in proportion as they come to know him and to appreciate him, they will have the riches of his favor in their hearts, and the power of God working in them more and more to will and to do his good pleasure. (Philippians 2:12,13) They have a God greater and nobler than mere humans, more just, more loving, more tender as well as more wise and more powerful. — Job 36:26;37:32.
And how few indeed today know their Creator in such a wondrous light! The great majority of those in the popular churches, like many religious people in Jesus' day, are blinded and confused by the errors of traditional religious teachings. (Mark 7:6,7) They are striving unsuccessfully to worship a God inferior to themselves in justice, love, and wisdom. Let those true children of God, who have ears to hear, more and more cherish the various assurances of his Word regarding the coming revelation of his glory, that they may become more patient themselves in respect to the matter, and feel more content to be sharers for the time in the blasphemous reproaches and misrepresentations which come to them in connection with their endeavors to show forth the praises of him who has called them out of darkness into his marvelous light, for now the world does not them, even as it does not know the Son of God. — 1 Peter 2:9; 1 John 3:1.
Nevertheless, the day is coming that the glory of Jehovah will be revealed and all flesh will see it together. Then the faithful sons of God will be participators with Christ in his glory for their glory will also be revealed. (Romans 8:19; 2 Thessalonians 1:10) Additionally, they will be glad also with exceeding joy of showing forth to others the glorious qualities of our Heavenly Father. — 1 Peter 4:13.
Jesus is able "to save them to the uttermost that come to God through him" (Hebrews 7:25), and He lovingly invites us, "Come to me, all you that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest," "he who comes to me I will in no way cast out." (Matthew 11:28; John 6:37) Since our days in this world are few and uncertain, those with a hearing ear should not delay in accepting God's great love-gift. — Matthew 13:9; Psalm 90:3-12; James 4:14; 2 Corinthians 9:15.

March Team Drivers of the Month: Robert & Cynthia Mantell
Congratulations to Robert and Cynthia Mantell on being March's team drivers of the Month. They have been with Celadon for almost three years. They got into the trucking industry because Robert's father was a driver and after their son was old enough to take on the road he taught Cynthia how to drive. They spend every day together and have been on more interesting vacations than anyone they know. Their advice to team drivers is, "No load is more important than our safety and others on the road."

The Palestinian Authority is also suffering a fall in foreign donations amid allegations some of it has been siphoned off by corrupt officials or diverted to militants waging a suicide bombing campaign against Israel.
Palestinian officials have acknowledged corruption, and reforms to purge abuses have been introduced, but President Yasser Arafat has denied donor money was sent to militants.
Khader Shkeirat, who resigned as LAW's director last September, said no money had been stolen but some funds had been used in ways not agreed with donors.
He said $US2.3 million that LAW was supposed to spend was instead deposited in savings accounts as a nest egg in case donors decided to halt funding one day. Another $US130,000 went as a loan with interest to a distant relative of his whom LAW used to change its donation money into local currency, he said.
LAW said it feared the donor backlash could undermine its efforts to protect Palestinians from abuses by Israeli armed forces who have reoccupied much of the West Bank during a 30-month-old Palestinian uprising.
In fresh violence, Israeli forces clashed with Palestinians in the northern Gaza town of Beit Hanoun early yesterday, killing three policemen, Palestinians and the Israeli military said.
Witnesses said Israeli helicopters fired two missiles at a Palestinian police post, killing the three policemen and wounding four.
About 10 Israeli tanks headed for the residential part of the town. The military said soldiers were searching the Beit Hanoun area for suspected militants.
Palestinians fired at soldiers from several locations, including the police post, and troops fired back, the military said.

I would say it's up to the user : the server may or may not allow anonymous operation (it's a configuration thing), but usually, it's probably a good idea for users to bind (using their credentials).

Do you ever keep your bra straps slightly looser on your shoulders so that they're more comfortable even tho they might fall down?
Do they ever fall down sometimes because they're slightly looser?
Most Helpful Girl
Sometimes I loosen them a bit if it's a new bra and the straps are a bit tighter but I prefer on a whole for the straps to be slightly tighter as I wear the bra in, I feel more 'in' it :)
And yes if the straps are loose the straps will fall down, big pain in the bottom >.<10|10|0

I'm Kathleen Probst and my creative outlet revolves around simple design, dyeing fabric, stitching and messing around on my computer.
Art came to me in life much like everything else. I stumbled upon it, became obsessed and fit it in with all the other plates I have spinning in my life. I am an intense, busy, talkative, idea woman.
My art is a collection of series, each which have their own set of rules. I create simple, elegant designs using rich colors to elicit an emotional response. I have a background in math (Yes, I was a high school math teacher for 6 years – don't hold it against me) and I crave strong spatial relationships in my work. I create simplicity and balance.
Constantly I catch myself surveying my surroundings to find patterns and relationships of space. River rocks, architecture, leaves, car designs and other art, like children's book illustrations, inspire me.
I have been focusing on my Alinea and Lada series this year. Each piece I make teaches me something new and tells me where to go next. I hand dye all my fabric in the hot Idaho summers. I am completely addicted to mixing all my own colors from scratch.
I balance my life between growing boys and creating art. I have one boy in school and one that I homeschool. We are avid whitewater rafters and skiers, so we always like to live in or near mountains.
Keep up with Kathleen

I am a buttercream gal all the way! Roland Winbeckler has a book specifically on how to make butter cream flowers. I bought it and it is an awesome book. Google "Roland Winbeckler's Buttercream Flowers Book" and it will pop up.
Here on CC, there's a gal named BCJean (short for buttercream jean) or the cake genie. That's her website, cake genie .com (take out spaces.) She has a couple videos available on making piped buttercream flowers right on the cake.
I second the Roland Winbeckler buttercream flower book. Many years ago I took one of his classes, very talented artist.. All of his books have great step by step, great starting point.
Oh, man, give me piped buttercream flowers, any day!!! I love them. Love making them, love looking at them. I'm glad to see there are other buttercream fans out there!
wow - thanks so much for the replies everyone! Will have a wonder through your recommendations now.
i third the roland winbeckler flower book. love it. i also like linda reese's cd on b/c flowers. look that up. it is awesome. and she also pipes different back grounds.etc. hth
This is great information. I would like to learn about buttercream flowers too!

share a survey form with another account...Asked by mosaicforms on October 19, 2015 at 01:31 PM
I have recently built a survey form on my account to test to see how it would work if I wanted to use it on a client's website. I would like to roll this out on a jot form account that I set up for the client. Is there a way for me to copy the form and then upload it to the account I set up for them so that I don't have to rebuild it? Preferably with out sharing it as a public template.
Please advise.
JotForm Support
You can have them clone the form to their own account:
Or you can clone it to your account account:
Then share it with them as a sub-user:
Either of these methods should work. The first would give them their own copy of the form, the second would create a copy in your account that you would give the other account access to.
If you have any further questions regarding either, let us know and we will be happy to help.

Where to find buy to let investors in Crewe?
I'm looking at selling my house in Crewe that I currently rent out to a long term tenant. Are there investors in Crewe that might be interested in taking on the house and tenancy?

The best thing to do is to speak to local estate agencies they will have many investors on their books who they can contact about your property to see if they would be interested. Another option would be to speak to some local letting agents as they may have some landlords that maybe interested!Answered on Mar 20 2012, Report content

Reviving the lost art of the classic fly
Salmon Flies

A couple of mounted salmon flies
I picked up these nice little mounts recently and they arrived in the mail yesterday. I put the two best salmon flies I've tied in them.

Monday, March 25, 2013
a rant, sort of
Now, I'm no expert, nor have I ever proclaimed to be one, at fly tying, but something bothers me lately with flies I see posted on forums etc, and its this....
The endless need to blow smoke up folks arses about their flies - and by this I mean bad looking flies that are prescribed by the masses to be 'works of art'
Maybe I'm getting old (34 this year) or maybe I'm just cynical. Probably both. But, there comes a time when we have to draw the line and lay it out straight to fly tyers that their flies look crap. I'm sorry if this hurts anyone, but that's how I feel, because when I started tying classic flies, the critique was laid on thick and heavy.
I'm a believer, that if a fly looks crap, its needs to be said. Not necessarily as I've just said it, because there are ways to positively critique items without causing offence.
What I hate is people of similar skill level, or even better skill level, than the tyer of a fly, stating that a fly looks amazing, is a work of art, when its clear as all day to anyone with eyes that can see, that the eye of the hook is crowded, there's varnish (or head cement), or worse, black varnish all over the hackle, or wings, the ribs are uneven, the body hackle is long enough to look big on a 10/0 shark hook,...yada yada yada. I could go on, endlessly.
Do folks not realize, that by continually reinforcing poor work, the tyer gains little to no advantage? He continues on in oblivion, tying flies that fit the positive praise of his previous work, and wonders why he cant make the flies look like those on magazine pages, websites and online stores....
Fly tyers of the world - its time to get honest. If you don't feel like you can give a positive critique including some things to improve, then don't bother to comment on a fly. Think of it this way, would you go to a chemistry lab and tell the chemist you liked his experiment if he'd just blown up half a lab (not a dog)?? I doubt it. So, If you're not qualified to give critique, then don't give it. Just view the fly and move on.
If on the other hand, you are qualified, then give an honest critique of what you see. Dress it up, dress it down, but either way, give it honestly, to help the new comers to the craft get to where they want to be, and that is tying flies that look good.
Fish don't necessarily care how flies look, but sometimes they do. Flies, in my opinion, catch more fishermen, and they do fish, and maybe I've been caught, one too many times.
That is all.
P.S. here's a fly - a redo of the Wild Irishman I posted last week, on a Sunday style Limerick - 2/0
Hope you like it, though there is plenty wrong with it (head is crap for a start)!!

too much drama, not enough tying...
I think this is the first post I've made in about 2 months. Forgive the brevity, I don't got much to say except that I managed to tie a few flies of late.

I got a couple more flies in the works. Hopefully I'll get them completed and posted soon.
Thanks for continuing to follow what has now become a not so frequent blog....

Samsung Camera Launches Digimax i5 Digital CameraCredit-card sized digital camera features 3x internal optical zoom (July 05, 2005)
Samsung's Digimax i5 Digital Camera
With millions of dollars invested in its design, the Digimax i5 is the end result of the collaborative efforts of a strong and dedicated R&D team. The credit card sized i5 is the first camera to bring internal zoom capability to Samsung Camera and is the most slim the company has launched to date. Its stylish stainless body will not scratch or tarnish and its ultra-slim form factor combined with a host of enhanced capabilities, is sure to satisfy those whose focus is on function and style.
The Digimax i5 achieves outstanding image quality by integrating its 3x optical zoom (equivalent to 39-117 mm in 35 mm format) capability with Samsung Camera's exclusive SHD lens technology, recognized throughout the world. When combined with its 5x digital zoom, users will have a total zoom of 15x, right in the palm of their hand. With a 5 mega pixel CCD image sensor that utilizes primary color filtering technology, the i5 provides excellent sensitivity and color reproduction and can be used to capture clear, crisp images as well as for shooting text for printing.
Even with pocket-sized dimensions of 3.5(L)x 2.4(H) x 0.68(W) the Digimax i5 is still able to pack a huge 2.5" high resolution color LCD with improved contrast and color reproduction, allowing you to enjoy a wider and clearer image. For even more style and flare, the Digimax i5 also comes in four different colors; silver, black, red and grey.
The Digimax i5 is equipped with Samsung's state-of-the-art Safety Flash (SF) capability. The SF function provides enhanced image clarity and color in environments lacking sufficient lighting where the use of a flash is not desirable. Easily accessed by a clearly identified SF button on the top of the camera, the unique technology uses proprietary algorithms to interpret sharpness and color information to deliver an image that looks like it has been taken with the flash. As the flash is disabled, side effects, such as red eye, are prevented.
The Digimax i5 supports MPEG-4 video technology; the high-compression and high-quality video format that provides an enhanced video shooting experience. When used with a 256 MB SD card, the user can shoot 2 hours and 10 minutes of VGA video with sound, at up to 30 frames per second. For even more control, shooters can utilize the camera's 3x optical zoom while recording.
The Digimax i5 also has a movie stabilizer function, maintaining steady recording of a subject by means of automatic detection and correction of minor lateral and vertical camera movement. The camera also provides a continuous video recording function that allows the user to pause and resume video recording at any time as well as a built-in movie editing function that allows the user to edit movie clips on the camera itself.
The new Digimax i5 flexible charging system allows the user to perform charging and data transfer with ease. The camera can be charged in 4 different ways, ensuring that power will never be an issue. In addition, the Digimax i5 comes with a cradle to enable even easier charging and image transfer.
The Digimax i5 provides an M button for fast and easy mode switching between Auto, Manual and Scene Modes. When set to Auto Mode, the Digimax i5 automatically adjusts the shooting distance and focus from between 5 cm to infinity, helping the shooter effortlessly take better pictures. Also, when in Auto Mode, the user does not need to activate the macro function separately in order to take pictures as close as 5cm. Furthermore, the i5's super macro function enables subjects to be photographed up to as close as 1 cm.
Users can also take advantage of the various photographic effects the i5 provides. The camera features four different special effect modes, including Color, Photo Frame, Highlight and Composite. The Color effect includes red, blue and green in addition to sepia, negative and black and white. Highlight enables shooters to emphasize a subject by putting its surroundings into soft focus. This is made possible using digital processing within the cameras. With Composite, users have the ability to divide a shooting scene into 2-4 segments and save it as a single file, while Photo Frame allows users to add a frame to an existing image.
The Digimax i5 also features various scene modes, helping the shooter obtain the best image quality in a variety of settings. Scene modes provided include Night Scene, Portrait, Children, Landscape, Text Recognition, Sunset, Dawn, Backlight, Fireworks, Beach and Snow. In particular, Text mode extends the cameras application potential. The user can shoot documents such as books, papers and magazines and then extract text from the images taken using the bundled text recognition software.

Some of the Blues' most talented footballers showed a little less aptitude for using their hands rather than feet as they swapped a pitch for a court in training
Having set up a makeshift court on their training pitch, some of the Blues' most talented players displayed a somewhat less convincing aptitude for using their hands rather than their feet.
In a video released by the club's official YouTube channel, the likes of Frank Lampard, Fernando Torres and Ashley Cole all got involved despite their unorthodox technique.
Cesar Azpilicueta and Gary Cahill, at least, were able to get the ball into the basket but nobody covered themselves in glory, though the players seemed to be enjoying it nonetheless.
Jose Mourinho will be hoping for a little better at Stamford Bridge on Sunday but you can check out the full video below.

Climate Stewardship Summit IV
Sunday, November 13, 2016
12:00 PM – 6:00 PM (reception to follow)
Central Connecticut State University Student Center
1615 Stanley Street, New Britain, CT
Suggested donation: $30 (sliding scale of $10 – $100 available)
Suggested Student donation: $10
Goals: This year's Climate Stewardship Summit will concentrate on the future – the almost certain, climate-modified future we are bequeathing to our children and grandchildren. Therefore, one of its primary goals will be on the role of youth. Equally important, will be the emphasis on the "greening" of faith-based institutions.
Background: The United Nations' Youth and Climate Change initiative states: ". . . youth constitute the majority of the population in many countries and have an increasingly strong social and environmental awareness, which has the power to transform our societies towards a low-carbon and climate resilient future."
All too often conferences and meetings held on climate change do not engage the participation of youth in their programs in any meaningful sense. Today's young people are more environmentally aware than any in the past. They understand the importance of conserving non-renewable resources and not developing wasteful habits. As a group, they have the potential to forge a less polluted environment and more sustainable future in our increasingly threatened planet. For these reasons, the fresh insights and well-honed creativity of youth will greatly assist society at large to move in this new direction.
Yet, it is the current generation of young people who will face the serious, long-term consequences of climate change on our global environment. These include not only increasing incidences of extreme weather events, sea-level rises, heat waves, droughts and water scarcities, climate change will have enormous developmental and health impacts on the unborn, infants and young children in all regions of the world. Thus, working together, we must squarely address all these issues in a comprehensive, holistic and timely manner.
In other words, we must adapt ourselves to this changing world, which will soon be upon us, beginning in the next few decades. It will call upon the mobilization of individuals associated with programs and material resources of our community – regional and local planners, first responders, educators, counselors, health practitioners, and all those engaged in providing assistance during natural disasters, human-caused accidents and emergency episodes. Being prepared to meet these predictable, though uncertain, events should become the hallmark of all faith-based communities around the globe.
Objectives of the Climate Stewardship Summit, IV:
- Examining the institutional role, education and participation of youth in the current debate on climate change:
- Developing educational curriculum on climate change for Sunday schools and other religious youth programs;
- Drafting a comprehensive, faith-based "Youth and Climate Change" statement, to be discussed and adopted during the Summit;
- Developing preliminary templates for religious communities to take a youth-based, "green leadership" roles in their community.
- Providing information to build a more environmentally sound, energy-efficient and sustainable faith community:
- Moving towards a greater number of "green houses" of worships;
- Incorporating climate-related issues during worship services, second-hour and other educational sessions in churches, synagogues, mosques, etc;
- Instituting a clergy- and lay-based educational program in the development of adaptation strategies with local and regional governments and other emergency agencies.

If you have dining or kitchen chairs that are usable but a bit unsightly, or if you're bored with your chairs but don't have the money to replace them, consider making some inexpensive chair covers.
Covers for Chair Seat Cushions
Sometimes simply covering a chair's seat greatly improves its appearance. To do this, create seat covers from linen napkins. First, center a napkin on a chair seat, folding it to fit around each corner. Pin the napkins in place and use a pen to mark the two points on each corner where the napkin meets. Next, attach a 1/4-inch grommet at each pen mark. Then, simply thread a length of 1/4-inch-wide ribbon about 12 inches long through each pair of grommets and around the chair leg to attach the new cover, tying the ribbons off in bows.
If it's possible to remove the seat from the chair by unscrewing it from the four legs, then you can make a seat cover out of fabric scraps or remnants. Once the seat is removed, wrap it in a fabric scrap, or you can purchase an inexpensive table cloth for this purpose. Staple the fabric to the bottom of the seat and cut off any excess fabric. Finally, screw the seat back into place.
For an ultra-quick cover, simply place a new loose chair cushion on top of the old one. A thick cushion can serve as a booster chair for small children.
If you need to hide the legs of the chair, cut an old bed skirt to fit around the bottom of the seat and serve as an apron. Staple the apron to the seat or use hook-and-loop fasteners to attach it.
Covers for Chair Seatbacks
You can make inexpensive chair seatback covers out of felt. After deciding how far down the back of the chair you want the slipcover to hang, measure from that point up to the top of the chair and over and down to the seat. Then, measure the width of the seatback at its widest point and add that measurement to the thickness of the seatback, plus 1 inch for the seams (1/2 inch for each side). Cut a piece of felt to fit your measurements and fold the felt over the chair, pinning the sides in place. Remove the felt cover and either sew or glue the sides with fabric glue. If sewn, turn the cover inside out to hide the stitches. Decorate with more felt cutouts, buttons, bows, flowers, or anything else that fits your decor, and attach with fabric glue.
To make a decorative chair cover for special occasions, purchase bulk tulle in 54-inch widths. Tie it to the seatback and cut it to the desired length with scissors (just to where it touches the floor is a good length). Secure the knot where you tied the tulle with a safety pin. Carefully pull the edge of the tulle over the chair and tuck it behind the knot. You can also attach flowers or other ornaments to the knot.
For the easiest project of all, simply slip large pillowcases over the backs of chairs and you have instant slipcovers. You can also use T-shirts in the same way, using either matching shirts or a variety to create a casual, fun look.

Charles Darwin's works go online
The complete works of one of history's greatest
scientists, Charles Darwin, are being published online.
The project run by Cambridge University has digitised some 50,000 pages of
text and 40,000 images of original publications – all of it searchable.Surfers
with MP3 players can even access downloadable audio files.The resource is aimed
at serious scholars, but can be used by anyone with an interest in Darwin and
his theory on the evolution of life."The idea is to make these important
works as accessible as possible; some people can only get at Darwin that
way," said Dr John van Wyhe, the project's director.
One big collection
Dr van Wyhe has spent the past four years searching the globe for copies of Darwin's
own materials, and works written about the naturalist and his breakthrough
ideas on natural selection.The historian said he was inspired to build the
library at darwin-online.org.uk when his own efforts to study Darwin while at
university in Asia were frustrated."I wrote to lots of people all over the
world to get hold of the texts for the project and I got a really positive
reaction because they all liked the idea of there being one big
collection," he told BBC News.Darwin Online features many newly
transcribed or never-before-published manuscripts written by the great man.These
include a remarkable field notebook from his famous Beagle voyage to the
Galapagos Islands, where detailed observations of the wildlife would later
forge his scientific arguments.
Free use
The real artefact was stolen in the 1980s and is still missing, but the text
has been transcribed from a microfilm copy made two decades earlier."It is
astonishing to see the notebook that Darwin had in his pocket as he walked around
the Galapagos – the scribbled notes that he took as he clambered over the
lava," said Randal Keynes, the great-great-grandson of Charles Darwin."If
people can read it on the web and they learn that it was stolen then I think
there is more chance that this very important piece of national heritage is
recovered," he told BBC News. Other texts appearing online for the first
time include the first editions of the Journal Of Researches (1839), The
Descent Of Man (1871), The Zoology Of The Voyage Of HMS Beagle (1838-43) and
the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th editions of the Origin Of Species, the pivotal tome
that elucidated his thoughts on evolution.There is no charge to use the
website. Most texts can be viewed either as colour originals or as fully
formatted electronic transcriptions. There are also German, Danish and Russian
editions.Users can also peruse more than 150 supplementary texts, ranging from
reference works to contemporary reviews of Darwin's books, obituaries and
recollections.At the moment the site contains about 50% of the materials that
will be provided by 2009, the bicentenary of the naturalist's birth."The
family has always wanted Darwin's papers and manuscripts available to anyone
who wants to read them. That everyone around the world can now see them on the
web is simply fantastic," said Mr Keynes.
