How do you remove underarm odor from an article of clothing that can't be washed or dry-cleaned (a costume)?
Angel from Seattle, WA

I realize this answer is years later. My son is in charge of entertainment dept., dancers etc. Their costumes get very sweaty and are very elaborate so they cannot be just washed. Dry cleaning bills are very pricey for garments like this and sometimes dry cleaning damages them. The dancers swear by vodka. Spraying and just letting the item sit out in fresh air or even better the sun. I concentrate on the pits and blot with a white towel. High concentrate alcohol may also be used. The least water content the better, I found 91% alcohol at major dept store, but vodka is usually best. Cheap vodka is OK.
I have removed underarm stains with ammonia before, but I don't know if a light solution of ammonia and water sprayed on the area would work for odor. The ammonia smell will go away. Ammonia can be used to remove odors from a lot of things, like sitting a container of ammonia and water out will remove household odors. Maybe if you spritzed a little on a spot that can't be seen to see how the material will react before spraying it on the troublesome spots.
Spray it with Febreeze - It's great for that sort of problem. It can be used on all sorts of clothing that don't really neeed dry cleaning - but have to be refreshed & items that can't be dry cleaned as well. Just apply, let dry & repeat until the odor is gone.

The pointless and depressing personal abuse that took place on several threads over the weekend - despite repeated warnings from me and interventions from John Stokdyk and Rebecca Benneyworth - has left us with no alternative but to change the way we moderate threads on AccountingWEB.
- From this day forward, any comment or part of a comment which contains anything which is not relevant to the OP will be removed.
- Any comment or part of a comment which attacks another member in any way will be removed.
- We will not enter into debate with any members about these decisions.
- The third time we have to do this to any member then their account will be closed.
Moderating forums in which members refuse to obey both the stated terms & conditions and simple professional and personal courtesy is time consuming and expensive. AccountingWEB is not prepared to continue wasting our resources on a small group of people who seem intent on spoiling the site's usefulness for other members.
Please login or register to join the discussion.
Have a nice day... ops!
I don't know if the above coment meets the new guidlines. Maybe I'll find out soon enough.
Minor jests aside, clearly something had to happen. I simply hope all involved can take a pause (and maybe turn the other cheek) then return to being the helpful & generous people I'm sure you are.
A positive step, let's hope this works
It's a shame it had to come to this but along with many other users I have found the forum to be a less pleasant place to visit recently. Let's hope that it reverts to the happy, useful, valuable resource that it really is particularly for us sole practitioners who sometimes feel the need to backup our views or ask for pointers in the right direction.
Thanks for all your help Becky, it can't be an easy job.
What is "original OP"
Sorry - "relevant to the OP"
I can think of one item in the list that may be relevant to certain members here (the opposite being YP ;) ), but generally - Original Poster or Original Post.
Or indeed ...
Opening Post
*thumbs up*
Great to hear Becky
Lets get back to tax, and away from personalities.
A "Years Pension"
Re the original post - glad to hear it, its about time the irrelevant stuff was pulled out and we got back to decent answers again. It does make very depressing reading (though I normally just give up at that point) Well done A-Web!
Thanks Becky
Thanks for this Becky and sorry you felt it necessary (though it clearly is).
It's a shame so-called professional people can't play nicely together but apparently that's the case so I support your decision. I hope it makes for a friendlier forum; I know I think twice about posting in the Any Answers forum because of the potential for abuse and flaming.
It's a shame but well done Becky.
Like the previous replies, I was also dissappointed at the level of personal abuse aimed at some posters. I don't understand why certain people just can't let things go without feeling the need to enter into a long and abusive reply. One of the reply posts over this last weekend was so long he must have missed out on his Sunday roast. (I'd better stop or I might get struck off myself:)
At last AW has got some balls and done something about the nonesense that was ruining this site. It has saved you my membership. I decided last week not to use AW any more and after one week I thought I would give it one last try and I am delighted by this news.
Pete T
A sad move .. but so necessary
I am aware of the considerable time that will be needed to review and monitor all the posts that are placed on AWeb, so I hope your efforts are rewarded .
Even if I, & some others, do get it wrong at times, we were willing to contribute, and learn, without fear of being ridiculed (or worse)! Hopefully, the new policy will give us the confidence to do so again.
Striking a balance
Overall I applaud this move. My only concern is that this stipulation
From this day forward, any comment or part of a comment which contains anything which is not relevant to the OP will be removed.
should be dealt with using a light touch. Given you're saying that you will cancel accounts after three breaches it would be easy for a casual aside as part of a relevant point (or an entirely harmless separate aside) to fall foul of this one and get an otherwise blameless user banned.
I'm a moderator on another forum myself so I appreciate how hard these judgements can be. I can also well appreciate the "no debate" clause (those discussions almost never end well usually just being moderator bashing exercises rather than reasoned debate) However, I'm also aware that heavy-handed moderating can be counter-productive and deter otherwise helpful and informed posters.
It's a fine line but this is a positive move for a forum that had become too mired in pointless personal conflict.
It needed doing
Something obviously needed doing, although parts of me wishes Id been around to read the stuff over the weekend !
However, I cant help but think that the character of the site altered hugely with all the changes about 6 months ago. Perhaps the moderators should have a think about what the causes were.
This has been so unfair I am making my first comment
I followed the "conflict" closely over the weeks, and it seems to me that most of you are blaming the victim in all this.
I have professional experience of internet bullying.
Try looking back over all the postings and it's very clear that WD/CD was entirely innocent and was the victim of a group who decided to target him. I've seen this type of behaviour many times in the course of my work, and one common factor is that the perpetrators always try, and often manage, to turn the blame around onto their victim. They repeatedly provoke their victim, then complain when he responds to their insults.
Personally I think that accountingweb have acted very badly throughout this and failed to deal with the real culprits.
What I now see is the unedifying spectacle of others rushing to side with the bullies, either because they are afraid of becoming their next victim, or, because they are incapable of seeing the real truth.
WD/CD posted sensible comments based on his obvious experience. He also challenges others to think about their position and question the "accepted" norm. That is a good thing. Obviously one or two posters did not like their opinions being questioned, and acted like [removed by mod]. As always the weak soon gang together and become bullies and WD/CD was their target.
What surprises me is that other intelligent professionals either couldn't, ot didn't want to see this and simply went along with this appalling behaviour.
In my opinion accountingweb and it's members owed WD/CD an apology for wrongly blaming him.
This is my first post, and i have no doubt I will now become the target for the bullies, I also have little doubt that accountingweb will not appreciate being told that they are wrong, which is why I will leave accountingweb after making this post. Such a pity, but why would I want to log onto a site where bullies are encouraged and their victims villified?
I hope my answer and the one above are deleted
I do not want this to turn in to another WD dominated thread so hopefully mine and the previous post will be deleted.
[removed by mod - off topic to OP and provocative]. I am big enough and ugly enough to take it but I am glad of the new stance and I hope it recovers this once great site.
CD not entirely blameless
As I've said in this thread this is a fairly narrow view of CD's behaviour..
If proof was needed
Well it seems to me that anonymous is now trying to [removed by mod - accusaton] also by asking that my posting be deleted just because I support WD/CD.
If proof was needed that their is a bullying element on accountingweb there it is for everyone to see.
WD/CD is a fighter, and refuses to be [removed by mod - accusaton]. I don't blame him. He has courage and stands up to them, and answers them in the only way these people understand.
And if anonymous wanted to prove my point, he couldn't have done it any better than by his post.
AWeb's policy on multiple identities?
Becky, I agree with the approach you are taking. Sad but very necessary.
Apropos of nothing could you also set out whether you will be doing anything to moderate posts if you have reason to believe someone may have created a new account in order to post under several different names? Let's say, for example, if postings of a very similar tone and very similar language started to appear all of a sudden that sought to support certain views or members? Such posts may be genuine but it would be unfortunate if such activity happened and has ruined several messageboards in the past.
Tracking multiple identities
The forum software where i moderate allows us to identify posts and users IP addresses. This gives us something more concrete than a similarity of tone ijn identifying duplicate posting. (though it's more commonly used for identifying spamming locations) OUr server admin is also able to block specific IP addresses if they are repeatedly used for breaking the forum rules. Prseumably your tech people can tell you if they are able to do that.
That would be a positive step forward.
That is good to hear and I hope AWeb can consider a similar approach should it become apparent there may be a problem. Blow-outs on boards sometimes/often lead to multiple identities being created in my experience and that only exacerbates matters. I also agree relying on identifying similar tone, language or spelling is not ideal. No-one wants to stifle genuine posters but equally no-one should want to tolerate posters with multiple identities particularly when they could just hit the Anonymous button anyway! The ISP solution sounds very good if Becky can do that.
Maybe then, finally, we can get back to our day jobs and see the Board function as I believe it was set up to do.
Cabin fever
It has been very noticeable over the last couple of months that a number of forums that I frequent have had outbreaks of hostilities. It seems to be a form of cabin fever brought on or exacerbated by the weather. As Spring arrives and with a new approach to moderation, I am hopeful there will be a return to more balanced debates. And I hope that lively debates will still be tolerated as long as they are conducted without personal insults.
(Should it be forums or fora?)
Some sense at last!!!
I have to say that I am not a very prolific poster because on one of my first attempts I was subjected to infantile abuse by someone who didn't agree with my comments. And yes, it did put me off posting again for some time. I do find AWeb interesting and it is always good to hear someone else's point of view, whether you think it is right or wrong. I have always believed that it is good to talk without resorting to personal insults!! Let's get back to being helpful and professional towards each other Becky, I welcome your new regime, you have saved my membership for the time being as I too was just about to cancel. Finally, I personally don't care if you are anonymous, pseudonym or use your real name, as long as your post is professional, useful and relevant to the OP. It is your choice. Deborah Lesley
I agree with CaroleUK: it seems that questioning the conventional wisdom, or simply asking for an attack to be supported by some sort of argument or evidence is now considered flaming, the punishment for which is a patronising response to which the victim is not allowed to respond.

It used to be common for people to identify with a religious tradition, even if they weren't very observant about it. But that is less and less the case these days, as studies have shown that an increasingly large percentage of the North American public has either given up on religion or never had it to begin with.

Phranc (born Susan Gottlieb on August 28, 1957 in Los Angeles, California) is a Jewish American singer-songwriter whose career has spanned several decades.
She began her performing career in the late 1970s and early 1980s punk scene in Los Angeles. She had a bleach blonde crewcut and wore male attire creating an androgynous persona for her first band Nervous Gender, which formed in 1978. The writer V/D wrote of her for the punk fanzine Slash, "On stage, Phranc looks like a 14-year-old runaway from a boys' reform school." The band was influential in the development of what later came to be known as 'Synthpunk'. In 1980 she left Nervous Gender to join Catholic Discipline, in which Claude Bessey, journalist for Slash zine, was the lead singer. She was also in Castration Squad, an all-girl punk band.
Phranc appears with Catholic Discipline in The Decline of Western Civilization, a documentary by Penelope Spheeris.
In the 1980s Phranc pursued a solo career. She performs in Paul Morrissey's film Madame Wang's (1981) as Phranque. She began playing an acoustic guitar and released Folksinger on Rhino Records in 1985.[1] She opened for music acts such as The Smiths, Hüsker Dü, Violent Femmes, and Billy Bragg.[1] She styled herself the "All-American Jewish Lesbian Folksinger"[2] and with a wry sense of humour released the LP I Enjoy Being a Girl in 1989 on Island Records, appearing on the cover with her trademark 'flat top' hair style.[3] Describing a live performance, Adam Block wrote "Phranc's unnerving androgyny (expressed with easy confidence) and her fervent opinions (couched in sly, laconic wit) make her a fascinating performer."[4] Her third full-length recording, released in 1991, was Positively Phranc.[5][6]
Phranc was an important influence on the Queercore movement, being acknowledged as such by Team Dresch in their song for her, "Uncle Phranc". In the 1990s many queercore bands and musicians involved in queercore music began collaborating with her. She appeared as a guest on the Team Dresch LP/CD Captain My Captain and, as well, members of Team Dresch, Tobi Vail of Bikini Kill, Patty Schemel of Hole and others have played with Phranc on her EP Goofyfoot and other songs. Phranc performs and is interviewed in the queercore documentary She's Real, Worse Than Queer by Lucy Thane and she has appeared frequently at queercore events such as Olympia's Homo-a-go-go festival. In the 1990's Phranc performed "Hot August Phranc", performing as Neil Diamond[7]. On her full-length CD of 1998, Milkman, she is joined by Steve MacDonald of Redd Kross, who plays bass. Her most recent releases, including Milkman, appear on her own independent record label, Phancy Records.
The 2001 documentary film Lifetime Guarantee directed by Lisa Udelson, chronicled Phranc's life with a focus on her day job as a Tupperware consultant. Phranc lives with her partner and children in Santa Monica, California, and continues to sell Tupperware. She performs occasionally, but spends more time working on creative visual art projects, including the Cardboard Cobbler sculptures. In December 2007 she had a solo art show at Cue Art Foundation in New York City curated by Ann Magnuson; the New York Times review compared her work to Claes Oldenberg and Andy Warhol.[7]

Solutions Integrated Marketing Services has entered into a joint venture with SPAR Group Inc, USA, to set up SPAR Solutions to provide end-to-end retail solutions for Indian retail marketers. The SPAR Group provides in-store merchandising and promotional marketing services as well as technology and research to manufacturers and retailers.
Srikant Sastri, Managing Director, Solutions Integrated, said, "The time is right to provide specialised retail marketing in India. Marketers are increasingly aware that mass media reaches only 58 per cent of consumers. Today, they are seeking to go beyond the traditional distribution paradigm of merely ensuring availability to experiential marketing at the point of purchase. But there is a lack of appropriate metrics to measure the efficacy of marketing spends. SPAR Solutions has been set up to address these concerns."
Patricia Franco, Senior Vice-president, SPAR Group, said, "The biggest change in the merchandising business has been in technology. We focused on collecting information more efficiently, processing the information and disseminating it. We built about 100 internet applications specifically designed for the merchandising business."
Said Sandeep Verma, Chief Executive of the joint venture, said, "A multi-location team of experienced and talented professionals is already in place to offer comprehensive retail solutions, retail media strategy consulting and merchandising services."

Prince Harry is competing with James Middleton over who can grow the best beard.
The 32-year-old royal has been sporting facial hair for a few months now and is keen to outdo sister-in-law Duchess Catherine's brother James.
The duchess - who is also known as Kate Middleton - and husband Prince William made the confession when they sailed on a ship during their recent tour of Canada.
Crew Member Steve Atkinson - who has a very impressive beard - revealed: "The duke said my beard was the most magnificent specimen he'd ever seen.
"The duchess was saying that both their brothers are competing on the beard-growing front.
"They asked how long I've been growing it and they loved it."
Harry was recently voted the world's hottest royal and many credited his new beard with helping him secure the title.
Asim Shahmalak, from Crown Clinic, commented: "Prince Harry is our most popular young royal and it is great to see that he has now been voted the world's number one Prince Charming, too.
"He is a fun guy and is great at selling Britain all over the world.
"The other fun finding from the poll is that it was won by a ginger-haired man. You don't find many Hollywood leading men who are redheads but Harry shows that it is a very attractive hair colour.
"I think Harry's whole look has been enhanced by his recent beard which really suits him."

A DT-layout made for Dusty Attic.
For this layout about my dh, I have used one of my all time favourite Dusty Attic pieces - the Decorative Scroll #1 (DA0213). I just love that this piece is in two parts, which gives it so much dimension and possibilities.
I know pink and purple aren't the most usual colors for a male layout, but then so are not flowers and I use them for boy/male pages all the time! I painted the scroll with Dusty in Colour, Sugar Plum (DA0908) and Dusty Pink (DA0907). I then used some white gesso on top to tone down the colors a bit. For the title I used the Mini ABC set lower (DA0862), which I just kept raw.
I tied a white ribbon to the scroll and then just let it "flow" across my layout, and attached it with some flowers in the other end.
The beautiful papers are from Maja Design.
Thank you for looking!

The paleo diet wasn't all meat
Paleolithic hominims - human ancestors - didn't brush twice a day, which probably helped when archaeologists used the remains of dental plaque to learn which foods were popular back in the Middle Pleistocene era.
It turns out the paleo diet wasn't all meat: the plaque included nutritional plants, probably nuts and seeds.
In a study published this month in the journal Quaternary International, researchers extracted samples of plaque from the teeth of three hominims that lived 300,000 to 400,000 years ago in Qesem Cave, in what is now Israel. Dental plaque stores remnants of ingested food, and an analysis of the stuff found substantial amounts of starch granules and other plant-related chemical compounds.
The research presents "a stark contrast to the notion that an early Paleolithic diet was based largely on meat," according to a summary published by the University of York, which partnered with the University of Barcelona and Tel Aviv University on the research. "Making deliberate use of local, nutritional plant resources ensured that their diet fulfilled their physiological requirements and suggests a detailed knowledge of the local ecology."
*Why the trendy paleo diet might not work for you
*10 things to know about paleo
*What life is really like on the paleo diet
In a statement provided by the University of York, Ran Barkai, an archaeology professor at Tel Aviv University, said: "Dental calculus from human teeth of this age has never been studied before, so we had very low expectations because of the age of the plaque.
However, because the cave was sealed for 200,000 years, the teeth we analysed were exceedingly well preserved. These findings are rare — there is no other similar discovery from this time period."
Incidentally, our Paleo ancestors may not have brushed regularly, but they seem to have foreseen flossing: the university statement notes that "plant fibres and microwear patterns on the teeth point to chewing of raw materials and possibly oral hygiene activities such as tooth picking."

STRANDBURG — Memorial services for Marion Buflod, age 87, formerly of Strandburg, will be held on Saturday, May 25 at 2 p.m. at Tabor Lutheran Church in Strandburg. The Rev. Elmer Brinkman will officiate and burial will be in the LaBolt Cemetery.
Music will be provided by Kathy Granquist, organist; Carolyn Boulay, violinist; and Patrick Boulay, vocalist.
A luncheon will be provided by the ladies of Tabor Lutheran Church.
Marion died Dec. 19, 2012, in Billings, Mont.
Marion Ione (Nord) Buflod was born Sept. 13, 1925, to Carl and Elna Nord of LaBolt. She grew up on a farm where she developed a deep appreciation of nature and country lifestyle. She graduated from nearby Strandburg High School in 1943 and started her teaching career that fall.
She married John E. Buflod in 1945 and together they began a family that included five children, Carl John, Carole Jean, Mary Lee, Julie Ann and Melvin Ray "Skip."
The family moved to eastern Montana in 1955 and she resumed teaching at rural schools north of Miles City, followed by Rosebud, Hysham and Miles City elementary schools.
After her husband's death in 1986, she moved back to her roots in South Dakota for nine years and then returned to Montana to be closer to her family.
Marion was an independent spirit who made frequent solo driving trips of 500 miles to visit friends and relatives until well into her mid-80s. She liked to read and passed that enjoyment onto her children and grandchildren.
She remained a country girl at heart and enjoyed the scenic beauty of Montana prairies as much as the rolling hills of her childhood home in eastern South Dakota.
She always took a keen interest in the people around her and kept in contact with a large extended family as well as the many friends and acquaintances she made throughout her life. She was a loyal and supportive grandmother and played a very large role in the lives of her grandchildren.
Marion is survived by her sister, Marlys (Wilbur) Johnson of Strandburg; her children, Carl (Judy) Buflod and Carole (Sterling) Warner; her grandchildren, Michelle (Jacob) Dauenhauer, Brooke Bartholomew, Jennifer (Vinson) Forsman, Brittany (Clint) Cecil and John "Garry" Buflod; her great-grandchildren, Jade Forsman and Lander Dauenhauer; and many nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her parents; her sisters, Donna Fischer and Muriel Lundberg; her husband, John Buflod; her daughters, Julie Bartholomew and Mary Perkins; and her son, Melvin Buflod.
Mundwiler Funeral Home of Milbank is in charge of the arrangements for Marion Buflod.

Jalapeno Ranch
Be the first to review
READY IN: 50mins
Recipe by JLBurnell
So the other night I went to Chili's and had their Jalapeno Bacon Burger, served with fries and Jalapeno Ranch. It was soo good, I knew I had to come home and re-create it. Now since I don't measure, this is just my best guess as to how I created it. It turned out wonderfully, but it may need to be adjusted based on personal preference. ** Cooking time is refrigeration time.
See Discussion:
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 cup ranch dressing (I used homemade ranch since I am not a fan of bottled ranch.)
- 3 -4 pickled jalapeno peppers, chopped
- 1 tablespoon pickled jalapeno juice
- seasoning salt
Directions See How It's Made
- Combined first three ingredients.
- Slowly add seasoned salt, based on personal preference.
- Refrigerate. ( The longer you refrigerate, the hotter it will become, and the better the ingredients will blend.).
- Serve with fries.

Rory Feek reflects on Joey's funeral
Rory Feek has paid tribute to his late wife Joey Feek, describing her as "the greatest person I've ever known".
The 49-year-old singer made a touching blog post, in which he reflected on his spouse's funeral service, which took place on March 8, a few days after she lost her battle with cancer.
He wrote: "In a grove of sassafras trees behind our farmhouse, with friends and family gathered around, we said goodbye to the greatest person I have ever known."
Rory detailed how the couple's loved ones had spoken during the service and admitted he couldn't find the words to express how much his beloved wife had meant to him.
He continued: "When it came my time to speak, I walked up on the stage and stood looking at my wife's sweet picture ... and words were not enough to let her know how much she meant to me -- how much she still means to me."
After Joey was laid to rest, mourners spent the afternoon a few steps from Joey's garden, hugging and loving and celebrating the beautiful life she lived."
And the day concluded with Rory and the couple's two-year-old daughter Indiana taking a stroll back to the singer's burial site for some final reflection.
He concluded: "And then we took a deep breath and did what Joey would want us to do. We remembered that she's still with us. She'll always be with us. In our Hearts. Forever."
In the post, Rory shared a number of photos from the day, as well as a video celebrating Joey's life.

Portugal has the euro (EUR, €) as its sole currency along with 23 other countries that use this common European money. These 23 countries are: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia and Spain (official euro members which are all European Union member states) as well as Andorra, Kosovo, Monaco, Montenegro, San Marino and the Vatican which use it without having a say in eurozone affairs and without being European Union members. Together, these countries have a population of 327 million.
One euro is divided into 100 cents. While each official euro member (as well as Monaco, San Marino and Vatican) issues its own coins with a unique obverse, the reverse, as well as all bank notes, look the same throughout the eurozone. Every coin is legal tender in any of the eurozone countries.
ATMs accepting international cards can be found everywhere, and currency conversion booths spring up wherever there is a steady flow of tourists (although the closer they are to tourist attractions, the worse the rates they offer).
To authorize your payment with a credit card, you are frequently presented a device with a keypad where you should type PIN code and also confirm amount--even for Visa Classic or MasterCard. This is different from many other countries in Europe where a card is taken , and tends to be safer as the card doesn't go out of your sight and there's therefore no chance that its magnetic strip will be copied and someone steal your money months later.
In smaller (non-high-street) shops you can try some haggling, especially if you offer to buy multiple items. You might want to check your change, though: although not a widespread practice, some shopkeepers might "accidentally" overcharge tourists.
Tipping in restaurants is optional. Waiters earn wages in Portugal and a 'tip' is considered a note of appreciation, not a means to make up for a tiny salary - if you are not too happy with the service, don't tip. Keep in mind that whilst tipping, most people in Portugal would just round up the total bill to the next euro. Even in expensive restaurants more than 2 to 3 euro would be hardly justified.
Tipping taxi drivers and daily tips for hotel staff are not customary in Portugal.
Designer clothes Although not widely known internationally, Portugal has several independent fashion designers. The list includes: Fátima Lopes, Maria Gambina. Some of them have dedicated shops in Lisbon. There is an amazing number of other things you can buy, either at sophisticated commercial facilities or at fairs and more popular places. Handicraft is a good example. Handmade leather purses or clothes, toys, home utensils, glass items, decoration, etc. You can find them at popular touristic places or at better prices in fairs and popular parties in small towns. Almost all major brands can be bought in major cities, all luxury articles are available, but there is not a clear advantage in buying them here as prices are equivalent to all other places.
Regional specials Dolls in Nazaré, also the Galo de Barcelos.
Cork products Being one of the top world exporters of cork, design products made using cork are becoming quite popular. Stores such as Cork and Company in Bairro Alto offer such products.

This sight was given to me for a reason, and thus I will serve the will of the Starspawned Gods as their mouthpiece, their host. All of reality will know the greatness of the Supreme Lord."
"What is this omniverse? Nothing. Meaningless. Imperfect. Even the greatest power of this world is nothing to the incomprehensible perfection of the Abyss. Sacrifice yourselves to it. Immerse yourselves in the nothing, for it is the true way. Existence has never been meant to happen, and thus we must restore the natural order. Join me, brothers and sisters. Together, we will dispel the lie that is the omniverse."
"Do you not suffer? Do you not hunger and want? Are you not affected by the burdens of need, by sentience, by consciousness? There is no need in the Abyss. There is no want or burden, just perfect nothingness. Destruction, you may think; existential horror, you may cry. But that's a trap, a mechanism put into your very soul to keep you from destroying this lie. Hand in hand, we must walk. We must walk...to the frontier of destruction."

Origin Story: The stars were right that night. The day the Jule Revolution began in 2504 is the day that Ramses was born. His mother was a notorious anarchist, and his father was a general that worked for the corrupt Pharaoh, Amenhotep. Ramses grew up unnaturally fast, maturing mentally and physically to adulthood in ten years, and stopping just at his prime. During adulthood, Ramses used his strange powers to completely crush the tyrannical government and save New Egypt from the Totalitarian rule of Amenhotep. Due to his immense power and seeming total benevolence towards his people, it wasn't long before he was worshipped as a god. They saw Ramses as an avatar of Ra, and Ramses used this influence over the people to create his own pharaoh-based government. He taught the people of "the Starspawned Gods", and told them that reality wasn't real. His nihilistic teachings spread quickly due to his influence, and then he became a savior figure against the "tyrannies of existence". New Egypt expanded to encompass the entire universe, becoming the epitome of technological advancement. Ramses' virtual benevolence towards his people led them to worship him as a god, and as subjects to a god, they did his bidding...they sacrificed their children to the stars above. They harmed themselves, channeling their pain into their "imago", their vision of the Abyss...they destroyed those who dared rebel against Zixx-Ablegathohachuatl, devouring their corpses and destroying their souls with horrible machines made by Ramses.
Base of Operations: Ramses, New Egypt
The Holy City of Ramses was created from the sands of the Sahara Desert (constructed and transmuted via telekinesis) after the fall of Amenhotep. The megacity offers unlimited resources and is constantly growing due to an ever-increasing population. This city is largely Cosmopolitan, consisting of many different human and alien cultures, all united under Ramses' banner. Worship of Ramses is largely common in this city, and every day religious rituals are held in honor of Zixx-Ablegathothachuatl and Ramses, replacing working hours for official citizens. Technology has been mixed with psionics and magic, allowing for a wide array of technology for citizens such as portable teleporters, personal space ships, and genetic engineering/transhumanism caused by machines that change the body on a sub-atomic level.
The city is very peaceful, with people not wanting to fight under the premise that "Ramses loves all, and thus all are equal". Due to this, the community of Ramses is very close-knit, with a society based on kinship and a love for Ramses. Each citizen has a mad devotion to Ramses, especially those who are officially part of the Disciples of Zixx-Ablegathothachuatl. Ramses' seeming love for all of his citizens and personal connection with his people only enforces this sense of kinship, for Ramses is literally their god among them.
Cities are linked to "Mind Conduits", psionic machines that are telepathically connected to the citizens and change the city to always keep their situation favorable to them. Due to the inherent nihilism in their religion and their fanatical devotion to Ramses, citizens of the Holy City have a great disdain towards those that don't have fanatical devotion towards the Pyramidion. Witch hunts are often held against even casual believers who haven't learned the teachings of Ramses in full, and sacrifices to the Supreme Lord are held every midnight, where random citizens are sacrificed (being sacrificed is actually considered an honor; the more painful the sacrifice, the more pure it is).
Anubis, the Slave City: Not everybody gets to enjoy life in Ramses. In Anubis, slaves dwell, captured citizens and cultures beneath the city of Ramses that didn't want to bow down to the God-King. The slaves are forced to do manual labor for the citizens of Ramses, and they perform all of the jobs necessary to keep the city together. Citizens that try to rebel in any way are instantly sacrificed to the Supreme Lord, or any of the number of the "Infallible Patrons", or the Starspawned Lords. Slavery in Ramses has a simple way out: convert to the Disciples of Zixx-Ablegathothacuatl and you will be an official citizen. Many slaves convert so that they don't have to deal with the incredibly poor quality of life offered in Anubis, but many people hold on to their old beliefs and culture.
The Black Walkers:
This loyal army is outfitted with the most advanced technology in New Egypt, and augmented with powers origined from Ramses' "mystic" abilities and his technology at the same time. The Black Walkers do not feel pain and can regenerate at the molecular level. With their immense numbers and lack of free will, and variety of combat skills, they're a force to be reckoned with. The only way to truly beat a horde of Black Walkers is to destroy the nearby Spectral Engine, which is directly connected to Ramses' power. Do this, and the souls trapped in the Black Walkers' bodies will be completely destroyed forever.
Black Walker Litchlords are avatars of Ramses, and it is through his will that they act. They are directly connected to Ramses, and can thus access "weaker" versions of his powers. They often call the shots and have the most freedom in the Black Walker Army, with souls being in at least partial control of their newly augmented, robotic body not being completely unheard of.
Attack vehicles and spaceships are also made of the same tech, with hive-minded consciousness inhabiting them, making them sentient, self-aware and...in total agony, unable to control their actions. Due to this, they can spot things the pilots can't, and their combined intelligence and self-awareness makes for an A.I-like entity, one that is super-intelligent and can micro-manage necessary things to make sure everything runs smoothly. Black Walker ships are able to go to FTL using similar technology to the U.R.H's Space Drive, and higher-end ships are capable of eliminating entire galaxies.

Cloud-based accounting software firm Xero has doubled its market capitalisation in just four months, rising above $NZ2 billion ($1.73 billion), despite having yet to turn a profit.
The shares rose 3.9 per cent to $NZ17.40 in morning trading - valuing the Wellington-based company at $NZ2.04 billion and adding to its 120 per cent jump this year. That makes it the 11th biggest company on the New Zealand stock exchange, leapfrogging online auction site Trade Me, which is valued at $NZ1.96 billion.
The dual-listed stock also continued its rise on the ASX, gaining 3.1 per cent this morning to $15.10.
The company joined the Kiwi billion-dollar club in March when its stock price reached $NZ8.60 and is seen as the frontrunner for locally listed tech companies alongside governance app maker Diligent Board Member Services.
Spy software maker Wynyard Group will be the latest addition to the growing tech sector on the bourse when it lists on July 19.
Although Xero chief executive Rod Drury, like some fellow directors and executives, has sold some of his shares he remains the biggest shareholder with a 19 per cent stake worth $NZ387.6 million.
The accounting firm reported an annual loss of $NZ14.4 million in the year ended March 31 as it continues to chase sales growth at the expense of short-term profits, doubling sales to $NZ39 million. That means the company is valued at 52 times sales.
Xero has attracted 157,000 customers, the bulk of which are in Australia and New Zealand, giving it annualised monthly revenue of about $NZ51.5m, or about $NZ328 per client.
The company is looking to reach one million paying clients, with about 350,000 in Australia and 360,000 in the US, according to Xero's investor presentation in May.

D11 Energy and Noise
Introduction of energy, including underwater noise, is at levels that do not adversely affect the marine environment
© Fotolia, Author: Nightman1965
Introduction of energy, including underwater noise, is at levels that do not adversely affect the marine environment.
Together with underwater noise, which is highlighted throughout Directive 2008/56/EC, other forms of energy input have the potential to impact on components of marine ecosystems, such as thermal energy, electromagnetic fields and light. Additional scientific and technical progress is still required to support the further development of criteria related to this descriptor ( 22 ), including in relation to impacts of introduction of energy on marine life, relevant noise and frequency levels (which may need to be adapted, where appropriate, subject to the requirement of regional cooperation). At the current stage, the main orientations for the measurement of underwater noise have been identified as a first priority in relation to assessment and monitoring ( 23 ), subject to further development, including in relation to mapping. Anthropogenic sounds may be of short duration (e.g. impulsive such as from seismic surveys and piling for wind farms and platforms, as well as explosions) or be long lasting (e.g. continuous such as dredging, shipping and energy installations) affecting organisms in different ways. Most commercial activities entailing high level noise levels affecting relatively broad areas are executed under regulated conditions subject to a license. This creates the opportunity for coordinating coherent requirements for measuring such loud impulsive sounds.
11.1. Distribution in time and place of loud, low and mid frequency impulsive sounds
- Proportion of days and their distribution within a calendar year over areas of a determined surface, as well as their spatial distribution, in which anthropogenic sound sources exceed levels that are likely to entail significant impact on marine animals measured as Sound Exposure Level (in dB re 1µPa 2 .s) or as peak sound pressure level (in dB re 1µPa peak ) at one metre, measured over the frequency band 10 Hz to 10 kHz (11.1.1)
11.2. Continuous low frequency sound
- Trends in the ambient noise level within the 1/3 octave bands 63 and 125 Hz (centre frequency) (re 1µa RMS; average noise level in these octave bands over a year) measured by observation stations and/or with the use of models if appropriate (11.2.1).

I have the autofill option turned on. I'm embedding this form into the app. It seems as though the autofill works on Android, but not on Apple devices. Is this correct? Or what is the issue?
This is in reference to this form: https://form.jotform.com/61946227861160
JotForm Support
It should work fine on any devices as long as the browser you are using has browser cache and cookies turned on and it supports local storage. When using autofill, form data will be saved on the browser's local storage.
Have you tried using Chrome on iPhone or Firefox perhaps? The problem might be with the browser you are using too, I suggest to try a different browser and see if that works.

Every Estimote Beacon has an accelerometer installed. This means that the beacon detects when it's put in motion, giving you the ability to enrich your app with additional context. Also, conditional broadcasting allows to 'mute' a beacon based on accelerometer readings, which makes testing easier and helps preserve battery life.
Conditional broadcasting modes:
- Motion UUID
- Flip to Sleep
- Motion only
The new beacons automatically enable/disable the accelerometer depending on whether you're using any features that require it or not. For example, if you enable the Estimote Telemetry packet, which makes the beacon broadcast all of its sensor data, then our firmware automatically enables the accelerometer.
Estimote Stickers also come with a built-in accelerometer. They use our own Nearable communication protocol to advertise motion status. This means that stickers broadcast full accelerometer data over the air at all times.
Visit Estimote Developer Portal to learn how to utilize stickers' motion data.
Motion UUID
Motion UUD is an alternative UUID value, broadcast when the beacon is moving. It's automatically derived from the regular UUID by the beacon firmware and the Estimote SDK.
Only one UUID is broadcast at a time (the 'static' one or the 'motion' one). We can figure out whether the beacons in motion or not by ranging/monitoring for both UUIDs.
Note about monitoring:
Beacon region monitoring has a built-in delay of around 30 seconds from the point when the beacon goes out of range till the exit event is triggered by iOS. The implication is that when the beacon starts moving, the exit event for the 'static' region won't be triggered until 30 seconds pass with the beacon constantly in motion. Same goes for the beacon stopping moving and the 'exit' event for the "motion" region.
How do you use it?
Define the "static" and "motion" regions:
NSUUID *stillUUID = ESTIMOTE_PROXIMITY_UUID;
CLBeaconRegion *staticRegion =
[[CLBeaconRegion alloc]
major:123 minor:456 identifier:@"still"];
NSUUID *motionUUID = [ESTBeaconManager
CLBeaconRegion *motionRegion =
[[CLBeaconRegion alloc]
major:123 minor:456 identifier:@"moving"];
Use ranging for best responsiveness in detecting whether the beacon broadcasts its regular UUID, or the motion UUID:
[self.beaconManager startRangingBeaconsInRegion:staticRegion];
[self.beaconManager startRangingBeaconsInRegion:motionRegion];
- (void)beaconManager:(id)manager
didRangeBeacons:(NSArray *)beacons
inRegion:(CLBeaconRegion *)region {
if ([region.identifier isEqualToString:@"still"]
&& beacons.count > 0) {
NSLog(@"the beacon is still");
} else if ([region.identifier isEqualToString:@"moving"]
&& beacons.count > 0) {
NSLog(@"the beacon is moving");
Hint: Location Beacons (hardware revision "F") and next-generation Proximity Beacons (hardware revision "G") can broadcast their motion status, as well as full accelerometer data, directly in an Estimote Telemetry packet:
Scanning telemetry data with Estimote iOS SDK
Scanning telemetry data with Estimote Android SDK
Flip to Sleep and Motion only
When Flip to Sleep is enabled, beacon goes 'mute' if it's put on its back.
When Motion UUID is enabled, beacon goes 'mute' if it's not moving.
Read the article on conditional broadcasting to learn about benefits of Flip to Sleep and Motion only modes.

Paulo Filho and his ugly tattoo won with an armbar over Melvin Manhoef at Dream 10 today. Was it an impressive win? See for yourself. (Skip ahead to the 3:00 mark to actually see the fight begin.)
In his first fight back after his bizarre, overweight loss to Chael Sonnen in the WEC and second stint in rehab, Filho looked better, to be sure. He was engaging, made weight, and well, he won, but after watching that fight, would you still consider him a top middleweight, as many did just one year ago?
Of course not. His standup was shaky to put it nicely. Manhoef knocked Filho down early, and the former WEC champ seemed to be in trouble, succumbing to a barrage of Manhoef's strikes. His first several takedown attempts were stuffed. He ended the fight well, showing flashes of the Filho who submitted Kazuo Misaku and Ryo Chonan back during Pride, but he was hardly an overwhelming force.
This fight raises more questions about Filho. Will he ever get back to top form? Has he truly gotten the past the issues that put him in rehab in the first place? Will he ever fight in the United States again?
The only thing that will answer all of these questions is time, but one thing is for sure. Though Filho's performance wasn't amazing at Dream 10, the fact that he won at all is a good sign for his future.

By Edward Tick; EDWARD TICK is a writer and psychotherapist who lives in Albany.
Published: March 16, 1986
For more than 4,000 years, Crete has been a battleground in the warrior's dance of civilizations. Asian, African and European peoples, seeking empire on land and sea, have attempted to possess this rugged island of craggy mountains and deep, green valleys studded with millions of olive trees, situated in the Mediterranean midway between Greece and Africa, the Middle East and Italy.
No place on Crete better shows the ebb and flow of civilizations than Herakleion. Since the city's founding as port for the Minoan capital at Knossos, Arabian, Byzantine, Venetian, Turkish and German conquerors have invaded by sea and, in our century, air. Herakleion, fiercely loyal to Greece yet proud and independent in its Cretan spirit, displays the artifacts of its many residents and the scars of its many conquests.
Approaching the city by bus, Herakleion appears as an unexpected, low-lying metropolis set amid green hills that plunge precipitously to a rough, rock-studded coastline. Approached by ferry from Piraeus or other islands, Herakleion's ancient Venetian harbor, with its grayish brown stone castle bearing the regal 14th-century Lion of St. Mark, stretches its protective arm into the sea.
Knossos had been occupied since neolithic times, the first palace being built there around 2000 B.C. A later palace, serving as a royal residence, religious and economic center, was built around 1700 B.C. and thrived until its destruction by unknown causes about 1375 B.C. The palace was a complete, self-contained community and had no defensive walls, indicating the security of Minoan rule.
The extensive ruin site at Knossos was discovered in 1878. It was purchased and reconstructed by the British archeologist Sir Arthur Evans beginning in 1900. Set in a green valley surrounded by olive orchards that climb gently sloping hills is a huge tan and gray span of rooms, courtyards, broad and narrow staircases, passages and archways that snake in complicated directions from their center on a large, rectangular court.
Minoan architecture was markedly different from that found elsewhere in Greece. The palace is not symmetrical, balanced or harmonious in the manner of most Greek sites. Nor does it exude an elevating air of classical simplicity and purity. Rather, this sun-drenched prototype of the ancient labyrinth rambles and coils in on itself in a primitive, snakelike dance. As Nikos Kazantzakis, a native of Herakleion, wrote: ''In this palace one does not see the balanced geometric architecture of Greece. Reigning here are imagination, grace, and the free play of man's creative power.''
Along the west of the central courtyard, numerous deep storerooms contain tall pithoi, large earthenware jugs, for the storage of grain, wine and oil. To the southeast lie residential quarters, including bathrooms -one of which contains the Queen's bathtub. To the northeast are workshops and servants' rooms. Just off the court are rooms central to the life of a royal cultist civilization such as Knossos - the throne room and shrine, while to the east are the King and Queen's megarons, or halls. Among these are to be found the Hall of the Double Axes where stands the original throne of King Minos, a narrow, severe and rough-looking seat that seems to exude, at once, authority, confidence and austerity amid plenty.
The 1,300-room palace at Knossos was transformed through legend into the mythic labyrinth - the complicated maze in which dwelled the half man, half bull Minotaur. In the ancient story, captive youths, paid as tribute from defeated Athens, were forced into the labyrinth as food for the bull-beast. The Athenian prince Theseus volunteered to accompany the youths. With the help of Minos's daughter Ariadne, who held a thread at the entranceway that Theseus unwound as he walked, Theseus slew the Minotaur and found his way out of the labyrinth, freeing Athens from the Minotaur's terror.
The Minoans did, indeed, worship the bull. Wild bulls roamed the Cretan countryside. A favorite Minoan sport performed in the long, flat, sunny central courtyard at Knossos was bull leaping. Young male and female acrobats entered an arena with a wild bull, somersaulted onto his back, performed stunts astride the enraged beast, and somersaulted off behind.
The myth of the labyrinth evolved after the collapse of Knossos. Northern Greeks, who came upon a ruined civilization, knew of the bull worship of Minos. Finding an inexplicable ruined palatial maze and skeletal remains, the Minotaur legend became the mythic-historical explanation. The word labyrinth actually comes from the palace's pre-Greek name, ''labyrinthos,'' meaning ''house of the labyrs.'' The labyrs were the double axes, symbol of Minos, which decorated his throne room and much else.
Minoan civilization may be explored further at the Archeological Museum in Herakleion. The museum is at the north end of Platia Eleftheria, Liberty Square, a popular evening gathering place where hundreds of people promenade outside rows of cafes and tavernas in the traditional procession known as the volta.

Mauricelm-Lei Millere is a member of the New Black Panther party. He has been heavily involved with the Ferguson race riots ever since 18-year-old Michael Brown was fatally shot by white police officer Darren Wilson.
After witnessing a black man stand in support of Wilson, Millere became outraged. So outraged, that he called for the innocent man to be beaten, drugged, kidnapped and whipped.
Martin Baker is a Republican candidate for office. Police are claiming that he was not directly threatened, so there is nothing they can do to help him. It's hard to see how anyone could argue that he was not directly threatened after reading Millere's brutal Facebook post. Hopefully, he's just a keyboard warrior. But judging from the violence we've seen come out of the Black Panthers in the past, Baker certainly has cause for concern.
(Read More: Mike Brown "Witness" Coached By Black Panthers)
The New Black Panther party promotes violence under the guise of racial equality. They are the reason racial tensions are still alive in America today. If they're looking for a racist to expose, they need only to look in the mirror.

text: NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- TheStreet's Ross Kenneth Urken and "Mad Money" Research Director Nicole Urken sat down with Jim Cramer to teach him about Dropbox, the handy file-sharing application.Dropbox, which was founded by two MIT students in 2007, already has 100 million registered users and sees an average of one billion files uploaded per day. "You can do the horrible task of emailing it to yourself or putting in on a USB, but isn't it easier to just have all your files on the cloud?" Ross asked. Cramer asked why he should use Dropbox as opposed to using email or a competitor such as Google ( GOOG) Drive. Ross understood where he was coming from, noting, "We have so many devices already, why add another?" But the Urkens explained some of the time-saving benefits to Cramer. Aside from making it easier on yourself to store and find documents, Dropbox becomes very helpful when working with a group of people or a team. The ability to share specific files or entire folders eliminates the arduous task of sending out individual emails and when you're working with multiple people or teams, this can save plenty of time. It finally hit Cramer when he realized that while Dropbox may only save you a few minutes here and there, a little bit of saved time can go a long way by the end of the day. --Written by Bret Kenwell in New York.

Kuni Yairao was an earth shugenja of the Crab Clan.
Coronation of Iweko II Edit
In 1200 the Gift of the Emperor tournament was held shortly after the coronation of Iweko II, to celebrate the Emperor's birthday. Hida Taisho won Daigotsu Shaoru in one of the tournament events. The two men met again later that night, and publicly exchanged bitter insults. Shaoru killed Taisho during a duel sanctioned by the Emperor himself, with Kuni Yairao as the arbiter. The shugenja pondered with Kitsune Gorikki the threat to the Empire posed by the Spider Clan. The Mantis offered support to the Crab, sending one of their legions to the Kaiu Wall. [1]
