Q: How long does it take for me to get my mail?
A: JMU Mail Services picks up mail from the Harrisonburg Post Office each morning. The mail is then sorted for delivery and delivered the same day it is received. We also pick up mail in the afternoon for delivery by the next day. Visit our web page for our table of how long mail takes according to a specific state or zip code within Virginia.
Q: What is my mailing address on campus?
A: Mail should be sent with your name with your mailbox number. Please do not use nicknames or a parent's name or send mail to your box with anyone elses name. Notification of your mailbox number and combination can be obtained online at MyMadison
Address your mail in the following manner
Student Name
800 S Main St
JMU Box ####
Harrisonburg, VA 22807
Q: Why do students have to share boxes?
A: JMU Mail Services has about 6100 boxes reserved for students living on campus. Many students move off campus and forget or don't know to leave us a forwarding address; therefore, their box remains open. We have improved this process through the help of People Soft and MyMadison and are able to cleanse the occupancy list each semester.
Q: How can I find a department's MSC or student's box number?
A: A list of MSCs can be found at http://www.jmu.edu/mailservices/wm_library/alphamsc.htm
Student's box numbers can be found in the phone directory
Q: UPS won't ship to a P.O. Box. How should I send a package to my child?
A: We accept packages from UPS, FedEx, Airborne, etc. on a daily basis. Along with the student's name and P.O. Box Number, add 800 South Main Street for the delivery address.
Q: What's the best way to ship a package from JMU to another country?
A: UPS can be pretty expensive, especially for something other than documents, but is the fastest way. The final option is USPS mail. It can be sent AirMail, Priority or Express. All international packages must have a customs form except documents only. Our representatives at the service window can assist you with your specific needs.
Q: Can JMU Mail Services do a Non-Profit mailing?
A: Yes, Mail Services has the capability to process Non-Profit mail and it can offer substantial savings over First Class. Contact Audrey Simmons at our Processing Center for details, 540.438.1018.
Q: How can I get my mail forwarded to another address?
A: Go to MyMadison, click the Student tab, then Student Center link, scroll to bottom of page then click on JMU Address. To have your mail forwarded for the summer only, if you do not have a forwarding type address you will need to choose add an address, enter an address, click ok, then choose FORWARD, clic ok and save. If you have an old forwarding address you will just need to edit with correct address information. We will automatically discontinue forwarding mail before school starts in the fall. If you wish to close your JMU mailbox because you have graduated, withdrawn, or will be living off campus, edit your LOCAL address, and save.

The thing with liquid lipsticks is: either it's expensive and crap, or it's expensive and good...
There is one alternative to this - which I will talk about at the end of this MyTake.
Liquid Lipsticks:
The purpose of a liquid lipstick is to mattify on the lips and stay on there - for a long time - prefferably not drying out the lips.
Kylie Jenner Liquid Lipsticks (€27.6)
I've tried them, I've hated them! Expensive, but extremely POOR quality for what you're paying. Sticky and try to smell nice, but you can smell the underlying chemicals and it's just unpleasant in every way. They dry fast on the lips, which is a plus, but they also dry out your lips, which is something you don't want. A definite pass on this one! You'll be paying for the 'brand', not the product.
Colourpop Liquid Lipsticks (€5.7)
They're cheaper, they're better than the more expensive Kyle equivalents and they're overall a good buy. The problem with these is the staying power and the pigmentation - depends on which one you get, but generally speaking they're not that resistant to anything you eat or drink. But for the price, although drying, they're okay.
Jeffree Star Liquid Lipsticks (€19)
They're not cheap, they'e not overly expensive either. They're smooth, they're light on the lips, dry fast and stay on for a loooong time. They're velvety and the applicator is weirdly shaped to be able to literally line your lips while being applied. It's kind of amazing to be honest. Not they are a bit drying, but not overly so like the ones above. For the price, you do get a good product that's for sure.
The exception I wanted to talk about is the Maybelline Color Sensational Vivid Matte Liquid Lipstick. (€10)
Now...this is NOT stayproof, it's like a normal lipstick, but it's in a lipgloss container, it mattifies on your lips and is very silky and smooth on your lips. This is all awesome. The only problem might be to some - that it's not a lip stain - like all of the other ones are. I really believe this is a quality product nonetheless - but because it doesn't stay on I'll have to deduct a point from the overall grading.
Aaaaand the winner is: JEFFREE STAR!

Or religious people in general. And atheists, would you date someone religious?
Most Helpful Guy
Ummm since you asked about other religious people in general, I'm actually a Muslim and when it comes to relationships (mainly marriage) I'm only into Muslim girls even though in Islam we Muslim men are allowed to marry Christian and Jewish girls so it's not prohibited as some people might think but honestly I prefer Muslim girls, not saying that there's anything wrong with other girls but when I share the same beliefs with her, that would make the relationship easier and we will understand each other better.00|00|0

Reviews of Mechi Pieretti
Great voice!
Mechi was a pleasure to work with. She was very collaborative and patient about the songwriting process, right down to the melodies and lyrics, and was enthusiastic about delivering on my vision for the record. I highly recommend her as a songwriter and vocalist!!
Absolutely stunning !!!
Mechi will go an extra mile to make sure that the song has the BEST vocal work possible. She will provide multiple tracks with different versions and she will sing with genuine passion and love for music, making it feel like it's not work for hire but as if it was her own song.
Thanks Mechi !!!
Mechi ia a great singer! She always delivers 100%
Honestly, I do not want to work with anyone else on this site but Mechi. So much talent, passion and creativity!
Thank you, Mechi.
Great artist! Professional, kind and fast!
Mechi is a true pro! Great vibe and vocal, files sounded great! We'll do some more stuff soon!
Working with Mechi absolutely TOPed all my expectations. Her voice is incredible and the final vocal pack is beyond professional, very accurate and easy to work with. Absolute studio quality!! Communication was very smooth and quick, she is magic!! I will definitely work with her again in the future! Full support!
I've worked on 3 songs with Mechi now, and with each song she does something that blows my mind! Incredible singer, so easy to work with, and she will take your songs to a competitive level. Highly recommend!!
Mechi is so talented. I gave her a pretty difficult brief and she handled it just perfectly. Great communication and amazing voice ! I highly recommend her.
Mechi brought an emotion to my music like I haven't experienced before. A beautiful rich voice and a pleasure to work with. Thanks for all the help and look forward to working with you again:)
Can't say enough about how much I love Mechi's voice! I had an amazing experience working with her. The back and forth was easy, she was very professional, and makes sure you are happy with the final product! From the first sample she sent me I was sold, and I cannot wait to work with her on the rest of my tracks!
Mechi was amazing to work with! She pays attention to every detail given before and after the recording. We will definitely love to work with her again.
I had another great experience working with Mechi!
She is extremely talented, reliable, and nice!
We make a great team and make great music! Anyone who has the privilege of working with her is lucky!
Amazing talent! Mechi was fast, got it on the first pass and delivered well-produced recordings. Great voice, great to work with.
Mechi is an extremely talented top-line writer and vocalist. We worked with each other from two opposite sides of the world and the communication from her and results delivered on our track were excellent! We would highly recommend working with Mechi for easy and excellence vocal work!
Mechi is proffesional, versatile, radio quality, and over all a fun person to work with!

Mechi is a great singer/songwriter to work with! She knows her stuff and will take your track to the next level!
Love her voice - great!
Absolutely amazing singer who understands the style of the song immediately without any trouble! I required no retakes or revisions as it was perfect the first time around.It is not often that the composer hears the mood spot on from the singer in the first go! Definitely recommend! And will surely be working with her again! :)
Easy to work with through multiple changes.
Mechi is amazing! Not only did she immediately understand exactly what I wanted but she went way beyond my wildest imagination with her singing and overall production. This girl got fantastic power, voice control and imagination with her adlibs! I highly recommend her.
I'm pleased both as a customer and an artist. Awesome customer service – she responds fast, completes orders fast, constantly communicates, and takes direction very well. From the artistic side, her vocal texture and accent are very unique, and her experience level shows in the recordings. I'd recommend to her to anyone here.
This song required a strange vocal style – many syllables were highly exaggerated and pronounced with a fake accent. Still, Mechi channeled a playful energy that made these weird lyrics very smooth. For such an unorthodox song, Mechi's voice was exactly the right fit to make it sound natural.
It was a pleasure to work with such a talented vocalist as Mechi is.
Also a real professional with understanding, willingness and quick replies!
Mechi was gracious about getting every little detail perfect. I had specific goals for this song, some of which were difficult to describe. However, Mechi understood, and I'm very happy with the final result. Also, some vocalists are unenthusiastic about taking directions, but Mechi seems to welcome it. As a customer, I appreciate that very much.
Mechi is very sharp and easy to communicate with! Delivered the job nice and fast! Great melodies!
Mechi has a vocal energy that's very difficult to describe and even more difficult to match. It adds a lot of life to the melody. She also has a very distinct accent that adds more character to a song, which was a pleasant surprise for me. I have three more songs to do with her, and I'm very excited to hear how they turn out.
Absolutely Fantastic!!!
Mechi will not only deliver a phenomenal vocal track, she will put her heart into the project to make sure the client's expectations are not just met but taken to the next level. Highly recommended!!!
Mechi has great vocals, and has been a pleasure to work with. Very professional and reliable. Highly recommend!
She has a great voice and also a great person to work with! She works with all of your ideas along with creating her own, making it a great collaboration process. Definitely recommended!
Top notch!!!
I am very pleased with the work.
Superb quality, attention to detail but the best part is
looking out for the client's wishes and making the song
as best as possible.
Mechi, is a professional, passionate and creative vocalist with an amazing voice. She has a lot of great ideas and is open for feedback. A pleasure to work with so I highly recommend her!

Mechi is so great to work with. She really nailed our brief and was very accommodating with supplying layers and harmony parts as separate files in a very timely fashion.

Mechi is super talented and extremely easy to work with. Trust she knows how to deliver! Always provides updates and keeps in contact. I knew right away she was who I wanted to work with. I look forward to challenging her on the next one!
My first contacts with Mechi was once good and professional .. has good communication as well as a beautiful voice ... my song was sung by her in Spanish with much feeling. Besides being a professional you understand that makes them mostly for the love of music ... I am in Switzerland and I write songs in Italian ... when they hear Mechi here will
Mechi was so fun to work with. Her voice is authentic! She understood what I wanted and saw the whole track through from start to finish - with great communication, patience, and professionalism. I can't wait to work with her again on future projects!
Mechi was great! Very easy to work with and provided a great vocal!
When I first listened to Mechi's music here on soundbetter I got impressed and knew that I needed her to work with me on my project.

A nice vocal that fits my track real well! Mechi is creative, talented and really give my track a brand new look. Highly recommend!
Mechi takes her time to understand the needs of the project. It's not just a quick buck for her. Besides great and powerful vocals, she also provided awesome lyrics, great communication, professionalism and she adapted quickly to new changes. Rest assured, you're in good hands.

Mechi brings so much to your Idea of the song, she hears what the records should sound like and takes it to the next level
I was very pleased working with Mechi. She captured exactly the style I asked of her. She has an amazing voice! Please book her for your project.

|Agaricicolous species of <i>Hypomyces</i>
Rogerson, C.T., and Samuels, G.J. 1994. Mycologia 86: 839-866
|Abstract: Thirteen species of Hypomyces occur on gilled fungi. Most are found on members of the Russulaceae; other hosts include Amanita spp., Crepidotus spp., Leptonia strigosissima, and Pholiota sp. Anamorphs have been proven only for the four species, H. armeniacus (Cladobotryum verticillatum), H. odoratus (C. mycophilum), H. succineus (Verticillium succineum comb. nov.), and H. tremellicola (Verticillium sp.). Anamorphs have been putatively linked to H. lateritius (C. tulasnei), H. lithuanicus (C. arnoldii), and H. petchii (Verticillium sp.).
|Visit the Hypomyces Identification Aid for an interactive key, images, descriptions, distributions, literature and nomenclature for the genus Hypomyces
Key Words: Agaricales, Cladobotryum, Hyphomycetes, Hypocreaceae, Hypomyces, Verticillium
This is the fourth in a series of publications of monographic studies of Hypomyces (Fr.) L.-R. Tulasne (Hypocreales). In earlier papers we have described the species that occur on discomycetes (Rogerson and Samuels, 1985), on boletes (Rogerson and Samuels, 1989), and on Aphyllophorales (Rogerson and Samuels, 1993). As in these papers, we continue to place Peckiella (Sacc.) Sacc. and Apiocrea H. Sydow in synonymy with Hypomyces.
Species of Hypomyces can be distributed along the lines of their substrata, with most found on boletes, agarics, or Aphyllophorales (including polypores and thelephores) and with little overlap among the broad substratum groups. Thirteen species are recognized as occurring primarily on members of the Agaricales, including H. lactifluorum, the type species of the genus. Species of Hypomyces that parasitize boletes (Rogerson and Samuels, 1989; Helfer, 1991) and agarics (Helfer, 1991; and herewith) tend to be specific to host family or genus, whereas most species found on aphyllophoraceous hosts are less restricted. The Russulaceae J. P. Lotsy is the host family of preference for the agaricicolous Hypomyces species, with teleomorphs of eight species found only on species of Lactarius or Russula. Hypomyces hyalinus is found only on Amanita species. Two species are found on brown-spored agarics, viz. H. succineus on Pholiota sp. and H. tremellicola on Crepidotus spp. Hypomyces porphyreus is found on the pink-spored Leptonia strigosissima. Hypomyces odoratus is the least specialized of the agaricicolous species. Its teleomorph was previously known only in cultures of paired European isolates of its anamorph, Cladobotryum mycophilum, that were isolated from a variety of fungi. We have found perithecia in Puerto Rico and the United States on a polyporaceous basidiomycete. Hypomyces armeniacus, better known in Europe as H. ochraceous (but see below) begins developing on basidiomata of Russula or Lactarius, completely destroys the host and grows away from it, then appears to be growing on the substratum of the actual host. Hypomyces lateritius and H. lithuanicus appear restricted to species of Lactarius. Hypomyces lithuanicus may be the most specialized of the parasites, occurring only on species of the Lactarius torminosus (Schaeff.: Fr.) S. F. Gray complex, while other species may be restricted to either Lactarius or Russula but not to any species complex. In large populations of Hypomyces lactifluorum where the host can be determined with some confidence, the host has proven to be Russula brevipes; but associated nonparasitized hosts often belong to the Lactarius piperatus complex. In our experience Hypomyces luteovirens occurs only on species of Russula.
Basidiomata of agaric species that have been transformed by their parasites, including H. hyalinus, H. lactifluorum, and H. macrosporus, are considered by some to be edible (Herrera and Guzm?n, 1961; Lincoff, 1981), bearing in mind the possibility that the host itself may be poisonous. Hypomyces lactifluorum and H. macrosporus are available in Mexican markets, where they may be found mixed (Herrera and Guzm?n, 1961).

Happenings this week
I offered to rent a llama from our llama friend, Bill, to protect our sheep, but Norm felt that we didn't need to do that, so he'd better help me train them to come in at night!
Jody came over yesterday to start preparing her warp for the loom. She has chosen Peaches and Crème burgundy and cream for her warp. We had one hundred fifty ends and made it eight yards long. She is going to make table runners as her first project. She has ordered cones of Peaches and Crème from the online store; I got a few more cones, myself, in colors that I was out of.
This website is wonderful. You CAN get your Peaches and Crème in balls from Wal-Mart (in the colors THEY select) or Sugar and Cream from Michael's or Pamida. But if you want to chose the colors YOU want or have larger amounts (weaving demands large amounts), it's better to get it from the website. You must remember, though – shipping is spendy, but it's close to the same amount if you order one cone or fifteen. So I always order a large amount. Jody and I (and her sister-in-law) ordered a total of thirteen, so it makes the cones eight dollars apiece.
Any-hoo, Jody started warping with the warping mill, got the project done, chocked and chained yesterday afternoon. She took it home and we will start dressing the loom as soon as she has time. My goal is to have her weaving before we leave on Wednesday for Seattle. Hope we make it!
I love the Westbrook clinic and hospital! It's so small but very good and offers so many services that you would think you would only get in a larger hospital. The receptionist, Wendy, knows me by sight and name and has my chart pulled before I get to the desk. This morning she knew I was there for a mammogram so she said "Hi, Connie. Mammogram?" And told me to go directly to the lab area for the test.
When there, a nurse came by and said "Connie? You are a lucky winner!" Seems the nurses got together and bought some prizes, then had a drawing of all those coming in for tests today. So besides the normal pink carnation that we get when we survive the squishing, I got to bring home my choice of gifts .. a lovely bag that will make a nice knitting bag for the trip to Seattle! Thank you, girls!!! That was so nice and so generous. Makes going a little bit easier, knowing how much you care!
The gal that did the test talked about my necklace (with a rose quartz butterfly) an asked "Why butterfly?" I told her it reminded me of Cara. She lost her only sister last year and butterflies remind her of the sister, like they do remind me of Cara. This gal also lost her nephew before her sister died, and saw a cardinal the day of his funeral, which was a special bird to him.
So we agreed – when we see the butterflies and she sees a cardinal, it means our loved ones are sending messages of love and hope to us.
Today it is already in the low sixties – breezy but sunny. It will be a beautiful day – you have a beautiful day!

A new project
Now it is set up (sitting on two TV trays); Jody is going to get a table from the garage that should fit for now and move it downstairs in the warmer area of the house (they heat by wood, so the basement is the warmest). Eventually Don or Norm will build her a stand, like I have for my two table looms, for her loom.
Today or tomorrow she will come over to get some of my yarn for her first project. I think she will borrow my 15" reed, as she is going to use Peaches and Creme' for a warp and her reed is a 12 dent, which is a little too fine for that fat yarn. So that will be teaching day number one - how to use the warping mill to get her first warp!
While there, I saw her pumpkins on the TV - decorated as "Veggie Tales" characters.
It will be a windy, nasty day today, they say. But it will be a beautiful day, none-the-less. You have a beautiful day!
Friday, October 24, 2008
Today Jody is over and we are testing out our toy - a wool picker! We are trying my best Merino wool from when I lived at Murphy's Landing to see how it goes. I will take pictures and show you when we actually get it up and running.
We have gotten over three inches of rain this week but today it's almost fifty, there is a little bit of sun and very little wind. It's a beautiful day - you have a beautiful day.

How cool is this?
"Let's take the Amtrak!"
Cool idea – but could we do it? The closest station is about five hours away and the cost is pretty bad.
However, I promised Norm that I would look into it. And it is working! Yes, boys and girls, we are going to Seattle by Amtrak two days after election. Either as a celebration or a mourning period, depending on how the election goes, but we are going!
The trip is "only" thirty-two hours so we figured we could survive with the coach chairs rather than the roomettes that are offered. That makes it more affordable.
So my question is now … do I have enough batteries for the camera? Guess I'd better start packing them.
Jill wants me to bring some of my classical music for her to listen to. She and I may not have fiber in common like Joy and I do, but we have a lot of other things … music, theater, movies, and books among other things.
Now, when I called to tell Jill and Eric that the tickets were purchased, they asked where I wanted to go for sightseeing. Eric mentioned the Norwegian place is only about fifteen minutes from the train station, so we will go visit that as our last place before we head home. As far as other places, well, mountains … I would like to get close to one – don't know if I could CLIMB very far (what am I saying? "don't know?" I KNOW I couldn't!), but I would like to get close!
Now, the only thing that is sad about this trip is Peanut – she will have to stay home. I can't convince anyone that she is a seeing-eye dog! They and other service dogs are the only pets allowed on the train. And she certainly couldn't be my cane to hold me up because of my bad knee. Sigh!
I asked Wayne if he would be willing to care for Peanut while we were gone and he said he would if I answered his question correctly. I failed, but he took pity and agreed, anyway. The question was: would a mermaid eat a tuna fish sandwich? I said, "No, it might be her uncle," but Wayne said, "Yes, if she were hungry enough."
I promise I will take a bunch of pictures and probably put them on as a slide show so you won't be swamped with too many pictures on one page. And will keep a journal – I AM taking the computer but won't have service until I get to Seattle.It was a rainy, chilly day today, but beautiful all the same. You have a beautiful day!

Charles and his flute
Monday, October 20, 2008
And now Sunday
Okay, we got home last night about sundown after a long but pleasant day! Charles and CJ left very early in the morning, as they had further to go than we did. We had breakfast at Denny's and headed up north. I had wanted to stop at an antique store, as I had a special gift in mind for Jody, who was doing our chores, as always.
We stopped to have lunch at a Taco John's, one of Norm's favorite restaurants, then stopped at a very nice antique shop. I said (in my head) that I wanted this special something (can't say – she hasn't collected it, yet), and walked right to the booth that had that special something! I know you will like it, Jody – I do and we have very similar tastes. I also found something cool for me, but can't show that yet, either, as it is too much like Jody's and I don't want to spoil her surprise!
After the antique shop (way too much time spent and not enough money, as I found a grandfather clock I wanted but couldn't afford), we went to a Lewis and Clark display on the Missouri River, just inside Nebraska.
Another "way too much time spent" and we were on our way home. When we got to Sioux City, we needed to take our short cut home but Norm forgot to mention the road number and I didn't pay attention until after we passed it. All of a sudden, we were in South Dakota, heading to Sioux Falls! So we spent ANOTHER "way too much time spent" looking for a road east into Iowa and our road home.
But finally, finally, we were home! We had a beautiful trip, even though it was longer than expected, after a beautiful weekend. It was another beautiful day today. I don't know how long this gorgeous weather will last, but you have a beautiful day tomorrow!

Okay, on to Saturday!
Then we went to the Patee House. This hotel was built in 1858 and was the Pony Express headquarters. Also, when Jesse James was killed, his family stayed at the hotel for a few days while trying to figure out what to do and where to go. It's a lovely museum, with ramps and wide enough "walk-ways" so that I could take the pony in.
Right next to the Patee House (well, actually right behind) was the house that Jesse James was killed in. They moved it from the site a few miles away and set it up for a museum. Jesse James was (and is) considered a folk hero but he killed about seventeen people as well as robbed banks and trains, so to most he is just a criminal that deserved to be killed, even if it was a friend that was staying at his home.
My mother and father have a friend that is a direct descendant of both Jesse and brother Frank. Her parents or grandparents were cousins, one from each side of the family. To her, Jesse and Frank were heroes and an American Robin Hood.
I did not get any pictures from the Jesse James house - my batteries died; I am hoping that Charles got some good ones and will send them to me.
After that (where Peanut had to stay in the car), we went down to the Pony Express museum. It was only a few blocks, so nephew CJ and I walked (he walked, I rode the pony and Peanut rode with me while Norm and Charles drove the cars over. Then Peanut went back to the van while we went into the museum. It was a wonderful museum of a great time in history. Did you know that the Pony Express lasted only about eighteen months? The first run was begun on April 3, 1860 at St. Joseph and took only ten days, seven hours, and forty-five minutes to reach Sacramento, California. The last run finished on October 26, 1861. One of the biggest reasons for the shortness of the Pony Express runs was the telegraph. You could get news in minutes rather than days. Another company got the mail contract and sent mail over stage rather than by pony.
We had a late lunch and then headed back to the motel for a rest. Norm wanted to see the Stetson Hat factory outlet store, but it closed before we found it.
For supper, we went to a lovely small restaurant that seemed to be very popular. The food was excellent!
CJ worked on my computer (it always needs SOMETHING done to it) and we visited some more. We then said goodbye to Charles and CJ, who were leaving early in the morning to head back to Oklahoma.
Sunday (yesterday) was also a busy day, but I'll write about that tomorrow. It was a beautiful weekend. Today was a beautiful day – you have a beautiful day.

The beginning of another fun weekend
St. Joe is about half way between us and brother Charles, who lives in Oklahoma. He had been there before on a tour guide trip, so he had a lot of information about the area and a lot of visiting under his belt.
On our way, we stopped at Missouri Valley, in Iowa, where the Bertrand was discovered. The Bertrand was a paddle-wheeler steamship on the Missouri River that was going to Fort Benton, Montana with supplies. It had about two hundred and fifty tons of cargo, as well as passengers when it hit a snag and sank in about ten minutes. Luckily, no lives were lost but personal items were lost as well as the cargo.
In the nineteen-seventies, it was discovered and dug up. A lot of the paper, material and other items were destroyed, but the rest of the cargo had been protected by the mud and were able to be recovered. After tedious cleaning, the cargo was put into a museum to show. The items are under a very dim light, in air tight, air-controlled areas. We were allowed to see some of the items behind glass but the rest are stored on shelves in the back.
Several years ago, my friend and boss, Deanna, went to a convention and came back a different way so that we could see the Bertrand, but Norm had never seen it.
The pictures I took are not the best, as I was taking them in the dim light and through glass. Most of the identifying cards are blurry because they look double behind that glass.
However, you can see some of the many items (I won't bore you with all of them). For historians, especially "living historians," these items are priceless, as we can prove that people had and used them "back then."
We are constantly getting questions and even arguments about "they never had that back then! I remember one argument (well, discussion) about claw hammers (which, by the way were used, as an early version, in Rome, during her famous days).
So, here are some pictures of some of the items we saw. Deanna, some of these pictures are better than then ones I took when we were there, as my camera is better. But that little motel is still there, as well as the good restaurant across the road from the motel. I showed Norm the motel and we ate lunch at the restaurant. The food is still good!
After we got to St. Joe, we met Charles and nephew Charles Joseph (CJ) at the motel, unloaded things, had CJ check my Internet (he's a computer "geek" – unlike me, Jody!) and went to Red Lobster for supper. I have no Internet because I have to pay for it here at the motel. I think I'll get service tonight so that I can post this.
This morning (Saturday), we will go to see the Jesse James home and the Pony Express Museum. I am fortunate that Charles likes history so that we can go to these wonderful museums and get a lot more history under our heads.
It will be a beautiful day today – warmer than at home. You have have a beautiful day.

Orbiters is now in its 3rd incarnation. It's gone through many changes since December — here's a short account of some of the design challenges and solutions that have shaped those changes.
- From the very beginning, I wanted Orbiters to play quickly. And from the very first playtest with version 1, it was clear that play speed would be a big challenge. There was simply too much information for players to process before they could make decisions.
- Version 1's gameplay was too generic; the rules were simple, but they didn't particularly suit the theme.
- Finally, it was just too difficult to complete an objective, especially without already knowing which satellites, or how many of them, would be needed for it.
Information Overload
Players immediately suggested reducing the amount of information in the game — further generalizing descriptions of satellite data products, or even replacing the text altogether with a system of icons. It was clear that the information overload problem had to be solved before the game could be fun, but I rejected the icon idea because, after all, Orbiters is an educational game, and part of what it offers to players is increased familiarity with relevant scientific vocabulary. Furthermore, as William pointed out, "cool science words" have their own appeal, which I didn't want to lose.
What I did change from version 1 to version 2 was text layout on each card. I separated a satellite's data products from other information (flavor text), which turned blue and moved to the bottom of the card.
For version 2, we put all the satellite cards face-up on the table and had players bid on them from a fixed budget. This way, players would be able to see exactly what they needed for any given objective. Objectives were dealt one at a time, and players tried to complete one objective per round for three rounds. The thematic reasoning behind the bidding was that players were hiring research assistants who were experienced in the interpretation of a given satellite's data (raw satellite data is freely available to the public, so we didn't want the rules to include paying for data). This was something of a stretch, but the bigger problem with version 2 was still information overload: seeing all 25 satellite cards spread out at once caused the game to start off at a crawl as players tried to read everything, searching for the data types that matched their assigned objectives.
For version 3, we cut the overload by laying out just five satellites at the beginning of the game. New satellite cards are added one at a time as satellites are launched. This should get the game started much faster, but also support the game's learning goals of familiarizing players with satellite functions — because scrutinizing five cards is appealing, while scrutinizing 25 is intimidating.
Thematic Gameplay
We got rid of the idea of paying researchers from version 2, which had felt a bit forced to begin with, and instead instituted an elegant and intuitive low-bidding mechanic of William's design. Players bid for the objectives they want to complete, but just like agencies doing contract work for the government, they propose the lowest budget they think is feasible. Low bidder wins, and receives the objective card along with funding in the amount of the low bid. Players then need to get the necessary satellites into orbit, which requires funding each satellite's launch — but once a satellite has launched, its data products are available to all players. Of course this is a very simplified model, but it is much truer to the theme of the game. Version 3 needed some kind of currency that would allow players to contribute money to satellite launches, so I added a funding card:
In our next round of playtesting, I'll be looking to see how many funding cards are necessary for play and whether or not I should consider using some kind of token, which would make the game much more materially complicated (and expensive).
With satellite data now being available to all players once each satellite is launched (which happens when any combination of players has contributed a total launch amount), the problem of being unable to complete objectives because other players have swiped the necessary satellite cards should be solved. What will be difficult instead is deciding on a bidding strategy. We'll be looking to see how much of a role strategy has versus luck in a particular player's success; for a casual, quick game like Orbiters with a learning objective, I'd like to see a balance where a good strategy is likely to lead to more success, but where luck also continues to play a limited role and helps level the playing field among players of differing ability/age.
I'm excited to see Orbiters shaping up as the quick, fun, educational (and affordable) card game I envisioned last fall. If you're an educator or educational games enthusiast and would like to playtest or buy Orbiters, check out its new page where you'll find updates and contact info.

Sheriff Marlin Gusman, facing potential sanctions over the stubbornly bad conditions at Orleans Parish Prison, has struck a short-term deal with inmate advocates and the U.S. Justice Department that is intended to speed up a broader series of court-ordered reforms.
The agreement, filed Friday in U.S. District Court, calls for increased accountability on Gusman's part, with the sheriff or one of his deputies required to provide monthly updates to a federal judge, in open court, on ongoing efforts to improve conditions for inmates.
It also outlines an array of directives Gusman must give his deputies about documenting inmate violence and their own use of force within the jail.
If approved by U.S. District Judge Lance Africk, the judge overseeing the jail reforms, the deal further would require the Sheriff's Office to retrain "all investigative personnel" by Feb. 3 on the basics of corrections investigations and other matters, including internal affairs inquiries.
Deputies assigned to supervise mentally ill inmates would receive fresh instruction on so-called de-escalation techniques and working with special inmate populations.
Katie Schwartzmann, the MacArthur Justice Center attorney whose class-action lawsuit resulted in the plan for jail reform, known as a federal consent decree, said she hopes the framework of the short-term agreement "will expedite the implementation of essential reforms to improve the jail and the safety of our whole community."
The Sheriff's Office "has taken some steps forward," Schwartzmann said in a written statement, "but, unfortunately, conditions have not improved for the men, women and kids in the jail." The jail, she added, remains "extremely dangerous" for inmates and staff.
The plaintiffs in the jail litigation sent Gusman a letter in August warning they planned to ask Africk to hold the sheriff in contempt for failing to meet the terms of the consent decree. Friday's deal at least temporarily ends that threat, with the plaintiffs agreeing not to seek immediate penalties against the sheriff as long as he holds up his end of the agreement.
One recurring issue that has slowed progress at the jail is the lack of clear policies spelling out for deputies how to translate the legal language of the consent decree into actual changes in jail conditions. The short-term agreement stresses the importance of those policies and sets forth new deadlines by which the Sheriff's Office must complete draft policies.
The agreement also is intended to improve the flow of information from the jail. It says deputies must alert the consent decree monitor — a corrections expert appointed by the court to supervise the jail's progress — within 24 hours of any deaths, attempted suicides or assaults occurring at OPP.
The Sheriff's Office also will have to assign a deputy on each shift to work "specifically and exclusively on the youth tier" of the jail, a particularly troubled part of OPP that houses juveniles being prosecuted as adults.
On a more mundane level, the Sheriff's Office agreed to ensure by Jan. 30 that the jail has an "adequate stock of toilet paper, soap and feminine hygiene items to handle the volume of prisoners passing through OPP."
The Sheriff's Office is preparing to move inmates into a new 1,438-bed jail, but its opening has been delayed for months by construction issues and, more recently, a lack of manpower to safely staff the facility.

Unlike Karri, I lived in shorts pretty much from junior high til my early 20's. Living in California, I often wore shorts year-round. For me, it's always been my stomach that's my worst feature, and I didn't think twice about wearing shorts when I was a kid.
|Kegger! I was legal by then, so don't call the cops on me. :P
This last picture was in Mexico on our grad trip when I was 17 (my birthday's in September, so I was 17 when I graduated). This was the only time I've ever worn cropped tops because my stomach has always been my least-favorite feature, and I felt so embarrassed the entire time I wore this shirt. I was so sucking it in for the picture. Someone needed to smack 17 year-old me!!
In my 2013 goals post, I listed rocking the short running shorts as one of my goals. I also want to wear shorts in public outside of running! For years now, the only time I've worn shorts, or really showed my legs in any way, was while running. I've hardly even worn capris. It's all jeans all the time for my legs, and that makes me sad. My twins were born early August, and I was miserable that entire summer in huge maternity sweat pants because I refused to wear shorts or even dresses. I hadn't worked out consistently in a very long time and had zero muscle anywhere on my body. More than my size, I hated how soft I was.
Now that I've been working hard to lose weight for a year now, I feel so much more confident than I ever did in any of the above pictures. Even though I'm a good 40-50lbs heavier than I was back then. I love myself so much more, and focus on the good changes in my body. Like my legs. They'll never look as skinny as they used to once upon a time, but that's ok with me. I'm fine with never seeing 120's again. My goal is not to look like that again, but to be fit and strong and I'm definitely headed in the right direction!
|I promise I'll shave next time I take a picture of my legs!
Do you want to rock the short shorts this summer with Karri and me? Join us for a link-up on Tuesday! We're working on a Tone em up Tuesdays button, and figuring out how to even do a link-up now. :)

Wanted: "Adventurous" Woman To Birth Neanderthal
A Harvard professor has hatched a plan to bring back the Neanderthals—but he needs an "adventurous" female volunteer to deliver a knuckle-dragging bundle of joy. George Church, a geneticist who helped pioneer the Human Genome Project, says it is now possible to create artificial Neanderthal DNA from bone samples, put the DNA into stem cells, inject those cells into an embryo, and then implant into a woman willing to give birth to a Neanderthal baby, the Independent reports.

Fireworks company wins appeal in Prescott lawsuit
In a decision filed Feb. 1, a Wisconsin appeals court reversed a Pierce County judge's decision ordering fireworks be moved from a Prescott warehouse and fining a company nearly $2,000.
The District III Court of Appeals ruled Judge Robert Wing, who is now retired, erred when he found Victory Fireworks, not Premium Properties, was the proper defendant in the case and then found Victory guilty of violating a Prescott city ordinance.
According to background in the appeals court decision, Premium Properties owns a warehouse in Prescott that Victory leases to store fireworks. The two companies are separate legal entities, and neither owns any interest in the other, but Wayne Schulte is the general partner in Premium and sole owner of Victory.
In February 2006, the City of Prescott issued 13 citations accusing Premium of violating a city law prohibiting a dealer or wholesaler from storing fireworks within 500 feet of a residence. After two years, the municipal court judge ruled the city couldn't enforce the ordinance because it is stricter than state law.
The city appealed to Judge Wing, who found the ordinance is enforceable. At that point, Premium Properties moved to dismiss, arguing that, while it owned the warehouse, Victory owned the fireworks.
During an Oct. 28, 2009, hearing, Judge Wing agreed Premium was not the proper defendant for the citations. Rather than dismissing the tickets, he substituted Victory as the defendant and immediately found Victory guilty on all 13 counts. He ruled the fireworks could be stored no closer than 500 feet from a residence and ordered Victory to pay fines totaling $1,681.
While Judge Wing didn't give on the record his legal basis for amending the citations, he did state "Victory Fireworks and Wayne Schulte are one in the same thing with Premium Properties..."
Victory Fireworks and Premium Properties appealed that decision, and the city argued amending the citations was reasonable because both Victory and Premium are controlled by Schulte.
"The problem with the city's argument and the circuit court's conclusion is that, regardless of its relationship with Schulte and Premium Properties, Victory Fireworks is a separate legal entity," ruled the appeals court.
The higher court found that, because the tickets were issued against Premium, Victory was never ticketed and never had a chance to hear and dispute evidence.
"This is prejudicial as a matter of law, to say nothing of violating basic notions of due process," says the decision.
The appeals court concluded, "If the city wanted to cite Victory Fireworks for ordinance violations, it should have done so long before the final evidentiary hearing."
"We are pleased that the court of appeals saw the case the way we raised it," said Victory's lead attorney John O. Olson of Lake Geneva. "When you get what you asked for, you've got to be pleased."
The Victory attorneys said they aren't sure if fireworks are stored in the building now because that often depends upon the season.
"When they are there, they are stored in compliance with the law," said Olson's associate, Martha Cordell. She wouldn't say if that meant the state law or the city ordinance.
Prescott City Administrator Elizabeth Frueh said Monday morning city officials have not decided how they will proceed and have not had time to discuss the appeals court ruling with their attorney.
She said the last she heard, fireworks were no longer being stored in the warehouse.

Moody Stick Figure
Show the world that stick figures have feelings too.
Show the world that stick figures have feelings too.
Show the world that stick figures have feelings too.
Boxy, not that funny, and a bit boring.
I like the font.
I think I have a "Today I Feel" magnet like this. Except this is much worse. This concept is very tired and has been done so many times it's not worth the time to even continue to critique it. Iknow you think the final square is clever and makes your idea stand out from the rest, but really it's just not funny and comes off as crude and crass.
This is a very poor variation on a theme that has been done countless times in a multitude of forms now.
oh hey i have that today i feel magnet too.
This reminds me of my cat. She always has the same expression no matter what. And she changes it only slightly when she's really angry... I know, it's a random comment. Just thought you might like to know.
I dont know dawg. This seems kinda generic to me. Like something Ive seen many times before. You know man? The font choice ain't that great, and the joke aint realy hittin me. Keep at it man... maybe next year.
This shirt seems like it belongs at one of those sites that had a billion kinda random mostly unfunny jokes you can have printed on a tee.
I've seen this done before, unfortunately much better.
I laughed when I saw it, good job. Maybe not the most original but I still thought it was awesome, keep up the work. ^_^
love it.
i'd like it if you 's put eyes or something on them atleast.
boo. should be with those shirts that say "You're just jealous that the voices don't talk to you" and stuff like that.
This idea has been worn out and has been done before and much better might I add. It all just seems like a complete waste of space.
Boring!! :/
Mmm, nah, gotta agree with Simon here. I have those magnets too.
four letters describe my feeling for this: H A T E
Thanks for the feedback, but you did not specify the order of the letters. I can only assume you mean THEA, a college placement exam. Perhaps you wish to wear this shirt while taking the test? You should know that it has not yet been proven that this shirt will enhance ones performance on any sort of exam. Regardless, good luck!
I would buy it!

Unique Question not working properlyAsked by OSTA2015 on November 18, 2015 at 02:48 PM
I set my Unique Question to Route Number and now i am having an issue with a specific route number.
I have a person trying to input a route number of X41 and when they go to submit the form it gives them the message of
Any idea why they can't use this number ? i checked there submissions and there is no route number with that number anywhere in the submissions.
JotForm Support
Thank you for contacting us.
Could you please provide us with a form name/link in question?

Could it be possible that you deleted a submission with that Route Number? If not, I would recommend you to disable that Unique Question:
And let the user submit the form with the Route Number "X41", and then enable the Unique Question feature again.
So if I did delete that record does that mean I can't use it again even though there is no submission with that number anymore ?

Hi Chris,
After deleting the related submission with the number "X41", you can add a submission with that number again. After that, once you enabled the "Unique Question" feature, it won't allow any duplicated submission with the Route Number "X41".
If it is still blurry, please let us know.

If you're able to spend more than a few days in Taipei, I would highly recommend spending some time in Jiufen. Known for its large selection of street food along Jiufen Old Street and its picturesque views of the surrounding area, Jiufen is a breath of fresh air. Here's an outline on how to get to Jiufen; either take the train to Ruifang and then bus to Jiufen or you can take a bus directly from Taipei.
I ended up taking the train first, then bus, as I didn't realize you could take a bus directly there. Either way, you'll end up in Jiufen, but here is a quick layout of your two transportation options:
1. Train to Riufang, bus to Jiufen:
Head to Taipei Main Station and purchase a ticket to Riufang Station. Once out of Riufang Station go straight and turn left onto the street in front of you. Cross the street and walk down for about 5 minutes or so until you reach a bus station. We were slightly unsure of which bus to take, so we asked the bus driver before we hopped on (I believe it was Keelung Bus 788, but double check the schedule). Stay on the bus until the last stop, which will drop you off a few minutes away from Jiufen Old Street. The train ticket is around NT$60 and the bus ticket is around NT$20.
2. Bus directly to Jiufen from Taipei City
Make your way to Zhongxiao Fuxing Station (at the intersection of the Brown and Blue MRT line) and go out Exit 2. Take Keelung Bus 1062 – it will likely say Jinguashin on the sign, but don't worry, it'll take you to Jiufen. The bus ticket is around NT$100.
Once there, enjoy exploring the beautiful streets, lovely scenery, and – of course – all the delicious food!

Containers vs HypervisorsApril 16, 2014 at 07:32 PM
Dr Who references aside, there is an interesting debate forming over implementing virtualization with containers instead of hypervisors. Many application servers use the container model and while there are some benefits I don't know that I agree about the concept of delivering more services. There is much duplication in the container model and hypervisors try to reduce that since it is essentially wasteful. Some of the problems with hypervisors, such as hoggy neighbors and "cpu stealing" are not addressed with the container approach.

Koigu Striped Socks by Mary Joy Gumayagay
Welcome! You are browsing as a guestWould you like to see projects made from this pattern and much more? create a free account What am I missing?
Koigu Striped Socks
This pattern is available as a free Ravelry download
This isn't so much a pattern as it is a guideline for knitting a pair of striped socks, in Koigu or any other yarn, that uses up all the yarn.
That's right, all the yarn.
If you were to knit the toe, heel, and the cuff in a solid, and the rest of the sock in stripes of solid and variegated, you'd end up with very little or no yarn left over. I've calculated the ratio of solid to variegated yarn to be used, and what's let for you to do is knit up the striped socks in your choice of yarn, needles, and style.

This article appeared online at TheNewAmerican.com on Friday, February 17, 2017:
Under Saudi Arabia's "National Transformation Program" (NTP), being pushed by Deputy Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, the sale of up to five percent of the country's crown jewel, Saudi Aramco (officially the Saudi Arabian Oil Company), would boost private employment and diversify the kingdom away from oil. The initial public offering (IPO), if and when it happens, would be the largest IPO in history and value Aramco at around $2 trillion, making it the largest publicly traded energy company in the world.
The funds raised would flow into a "sovereign wealth fund," which would then invest in foreign and national companies in the private sector. This, it is hoped, would entice others to join in turning Saudi Arabia into more of a capitalist economy rather than a state-controlled one.
In Salman's grand scheme,

The U.S.-Germany Relationship
Most Americans and Germans see the other country as a reliable ally in 2015. But they disagree on salient points in the history of their postwar alliance, as well as on key issues for the future.
Anti-Russian views on the rise in Poland
Polish animosity for Russia surged in our spring 2014 survey, with 81% saying they had an unfavorable view.
Increased Public Support for the U.S. Arming Ukraine
As fighting continues in eastern Ukraine between government forces and Russian-backed rebels, the public has become more supportive of sending arms to the Ukrainian government and increasing sanctions on Russia.
European Millennials are cool toward Russia, but warmer than older generations
In six of seven European Union countries surveyed by the Pew Research Center, roughly a third or less of young people born after 1980 have a favorable opinion of Russia.
The continuing decline of Europe's Jewish population
The Jewish population in Europe has dropped significantly over the last several decades – most dramatically in Eastern Europe and the countries that make up the former Soviet Union.
East Germans now as satisfied with life as West Germans
Twenty five years after the fall of the Berlin Wall, East Germans are now as satisfied with life as West Germans.
Berlin Wall's fall marked the end of the Cold War for the American public
The impact of the "Fall of the Wall" on American opinions about the Cold War were as profound as the event was dramatic.
Life Improving for Emerging Economies
Publics in emerging nations now rival those in advanced economies in their self-reported well-being.
Russian poll: Putin faces limited opposition from his public on Ukraine
Despite criticism from the West on his actions in the Ukraine, Russian President Vladimir Putin faces far fewer questions from a public that draws a distinction between support for separatist rebels and having a direct role in the continued violence in eastern Ukraine.
Far More Continue to View Russia as a 'Serious Problem' Than as an 'Adversary'
Most Americans still are not inclined to view Russia as an adversary, though the share saying Russia represents a serious problem has continued to increase, according to a new survey from the Pew Research Center.

History will eventually figure out the social implications of the foreclosure crisis -- its longterm effect on the wealth gap between minorities and white people, its role in gentrification, its impact on an already shrinking middle class, whether it permanently alters the popular conception of the American Dream, etc.
The researchers compared voter turnout in the 2008 election and foreclosure data in California by zip code. According to the university, the study is "believed to be the first to assess the effect of foreclosure on political participation." And the link might be even deeper than the data showed.
The 2008 election probably doesn't tell the full story of how foreclosures impact voter turnout. Because part of the potential impact was likely counter-balanced by the man on the Democratic side of the ballot.
Foreclosures have hit minority communities disproportionately hard. Still, minorities came out to vote for President Barack Obama at unprecedented levels.
"We expect the 2012 election will reveal even more about the cumulative impact of neighborhood change resulting from the past five years of economic crisis," Estrada-Correa said in UC Riverside's media release.
The way foreclosures affect voting patterns mirrors the causes for the generally low voter turnout in low-income communities. It's Maslow's Pyramid 101: When your mind is focused on getting extra shifts to pay the rent or draining your savings to cover the rising interests rates that doubled your monthly mortgage payment, registering to vote can slip past the filters.
The anxiety is contagious within a community, creating a vicious cycle of diminishing voter activity. Like anything else in life, voting habits can be shaped by the behavior in a person's social circle.
"Other things being equal, individuals are more likely to vote when they live in places where neighbors vigorously participate in politics, while individuals are less likely to vote when their neighbors are less civically active," the paper, which controlled for socioeconomic and educational variables, stated. "Given that foreclosure creates instability in communities, areas that experience higher levels of foreclosure have lower voter turnout."
Could be good news for Mitt Romney. While the candidate has suggested that he is open to the idea of helping people get loan modifications, his most specific position on housing policy has been, "Don't try and stop the foreclosure process. Let it run its course and hit the bottom. Allow investors to buy homes, put renters in them, fix the homes up, and let it turn around and come back up." Which would hurt underwater homeowners.

It's three in the morning, and, recklessly or otherwise, I have decided I am going to power on through the night with packing and final preparations ahead of a short jaunt to Berlin, which involves a pre-8am flight. My friend has gone on ahead, so I'll be meeting him there and travelling alone.
Working backwards, even catching the 04.49am Gatwick train is cutting it a whisker fine if anything goes wrong, but it beats shelling out for a hotel room I'll hardly use, or spending the night on an airport bench.
As the night deepens, I realise, admittedly somewhat belatedly, that I don't really want to walk to the station at 4am. I even have to steel myself to go to the bins at 2am, convinced that rats are lurking in the shadows.
At 3am, and I pick up the phone to call my taxi to the station.
I would normally use textphone on most calls, but this is only a quick one. I mean, calling a cab. You tell them the time and your name. They tell you it'll be five minutes. You know it won't but thank them anyway and hang up. They rock up and collect you. How hard can it be, right? Wrong.
They pick up, I tell them what I want. But I just don't catch the reply. The words escape for ever down the phone line, slipping through my fingers.
"Sorry. I'm very hard of hearing," I protest. "Please. Say it again, just a little more slowly and clearly."
Click. Brrrr. The line has gone dead. I stand in disbelief, still holding the phone. Bastards. How could they? I only failed to hear them twice. I try again. Straight through to answering machine.
I have turned off the computer, threw out my Yellow Pages long ago and it's gone 3am, so options for researching alternatives open all night are limited. I can't even try again with my textphone as they won't answer.
I know, I know. It's the middle of the night. The time when ghouls and freaks come out to play. The cab firm must have to endure all manner of demented callers and thought I was just another one.
But I am severely hard of hearing, potentially more vulnerable than most, and now I am going to have to walk the mile and a half or so to the station, with a suitcase, at gone 4am.
Admittedly, in the end it's not that bad. It's bewitchingly unusual to be out and about at this time, everything feels different at this hour. The moon hangs, full and buttery, over the Thames as I cross the bridge towards the station, my suitcase bumping behind me.
On the hotel on the far bank, a single light burns and I think about the person in the room. Domestic row? Jet lag? Early shift? Or, like me, do they have a flight to catch?
And there is enough early morning traffic around that I feel quite safe. Even so. I can't help thinking that I wish I'd had the option to get a taxi, and that I had been treated better.
