I like recipes like this, because you prep everything individually then just assemble when you're ready! I think these would be perfect for a backyard BBQ party or even a birthday celebration instead of a birthday cake. (Or in addition to, because birthday cake is amazing.) Happy National Strawberry Short Cake Day, make a delicious dessert. 🙂
What you'll need:
Makes 6 mini trifles.
1lb fresh strawberries
1/4 cup white sugar
1 (3.4oz) pkg instant vanilla pudding, prepared according to package
pound cake (homemade or store bought)
fresh whipped cream (see how I make mine here: http://youtu.be/Zbh9rLHGq7E )
half pint Ball mason jam jars
– Wash and hull the strawberries. Cut into pieces and add in the sugar. Stir to coat the berries. Let sit for 20-30 minutes.
– While they are macerating, prepare the instant pudding according to package instructions. Also prepare the whipped cream.
– For the pound cake, slice into 1/2″ slices and using a biscuit cutter, cookie cutter or measuring cup, cut into rounds slightly smaller than the jar you will put these in.
– To assemble the mini trifles, place a slice of pound cake in the bottom of the jar. Put a spoonful of pudding on top of the cake. Next, place a spoonful of the macerated strawberries and finish with a layer of whipped cream. Repeat using another round of pound cake, another spoonful of pudding, another spoonful of strawberries and finally, top with a nice rosette of whipped cream on top. Repeat until you run out of ingredients.
– Store in the refrigerator until ready for serving or up to 4 days.
You work too hard for your money to throw it all away on full price when you don't have to!

Anyone who operates a Mazda knows that when it comes to maintaining their automobile only the absolute best replacement parts will do. Obviously, you didn't buy your 626 unless you knew that you wanted Japanese engineering and driver satisfaction both rolled up into one automobile. You purchased your 626 because its best-in-class value and economical pricing appealed to your senses; so why would you settle for second rate when it comes to great quality auto parts? When your Mazda 626 was born, it was destined for a person with discerning taste who values long-lasting quality in their automobile.
There are a few parts on your vehicle that are both safety devices and convenience features. Your Mazda 626 door mirrors give you the ability to see along both sides and behind your vehicle without having to turn your head all the way around. If your Mazda is old enough, the factory may have only installed a door mirror on the left side; however most 626 models have door mirrors on both sides. The most heavily optioned Mazda 626 models could possibly have door mirrors with power adjusting and power folding features, along with heated glass to remove frost.
Make all your future car parts purchases at carpartsdiscount.com and realize incredible savings on all your upcoming repairs. Given all the trouble that can be involved with installing a part to fix your car or truck, let www.carpartsdiscount.com be the most authoritative website you go to make buying it easy. Procuring new Mazda parts from www.carpartsdiscount.com means you are getting the best deal on the absolute greatest original and aftermarket replacement 626 parts on the internet.

|[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-4018) limit memory usage in jobtracker
|Thu, 18 Sep 2008 04:43:44 GMT
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4018?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12632088#action_12632088 ] Amar Kamat commented on HADOOP-4018: ------------------------------------ Owen, I think Dhruba's concern here is of many small/avg sized jobs collectively overloading the jobtracker, see [here|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4018?focusedCommentId=12625505#action_12625505]. Capping individual jobs might not help as all the jobs will accumulate in JT's memory and bring it down. I think some kind of local capping, global capping and smart scheduling/initialization might help. But I agree that in the long term we need to model the memory better but for now simple heuristics might work. > limit memory usage in jobtracker > -------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-4018 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4018 > Project: Hadoop Core > Issue Type: Bug > Components: mapred > Reporter: dhruba borthakur > Assignee: dhruba borthakur > Attachments: maxSplits.patch, maxSplits2.patch, maxSplits3.patch, maxSplits4.patch, maxSplits5.patch, maxSplits6.patch, maxSplits7.patch > > > We have seen instances when a user submitted a job with many thousands of mappers. The JobTracker was running with 3GB heap, but it was still not enough to prevent memory trashing from Garbage collection; effectively the Job Tracker was not able to serve jobs and had to be restarted. > One simple proposal would be to limit the maximum number of tasks per job. This can be a configurable parameter.

Lovely vintage look
These earrings remind me of earrings my grandma and mother wore in the 1950s. They have a sophisticated vintage look, and are one of my favorite pairs from Amrita's collection.

I like online dating, as it helps save time getting to know some basic info about a person that you'd normally not know until the date itself, so you can weed out some people more quickly.
I can't seem to keep a guy around more than a month or two talking online (most of which I was willing to meet in person), and those I've met don't seem to last any longer than 2 dates.
Is there something I'm doing wrong? What can I do to find better guys online?
(I'm open to meeting guys the old fashioned way, but I don't really have enough free time or hobbies/places to meet anyone, which is why I started the online think in the first place)
Most Helpful Girl
be yourself. My fiance and i met about a month after talking and met up on New year's eve. Don't wait longer than a month though. I was on okcupid.com. Let yourself flirt. be honest with any of the guys of what you want.00|00|0
I'm always upfront about what I want and I'm always myself. The problem is the guys - Like I said, after a date or two they just cut contact and I don't know why it keeps happening. They always seem so interested.

NACS Praises Remote Tobacco Sales Legislation
Upon House Subcommittee approval, the bill will go for full House Judiciary Committee consideration.
ALEXANDRIA, Va. - The National Association of Convenience Stores (NACS) lauded the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Courts, the Internet, and Intellectual Property for passing the Internet Tobacco Sales Enforcement Act (H.R. 2824). The bill passed unanimously by a voice vote this morning. NACS said that the Act, if passed into law, would level the playing field with respect to cigarette sales between remote sellers and traditional retailers. The bill will now be sent to the full House Judiciary Committee for consideration.
This legislation, introduced by Representatives Mark Green (R-Wis.) and Marty Meehan (D-Mass.), would give states the authority necessary to enforce the Jenkins Act, a law passed in 1949 that requires cigarette vendors to report the interstate sales of cigarettes. The law is currently ignored by virtually all Internet and mail-order retailers, and a loophole keeps states attorneys general at bay when it comes to prosecuting offenders. Specifically, the bill would require all Internet sellers, including Indian tribes, to comply with the Jenkins Act, and holds these sellers directly liable to states for any infraction.
Following the Subcommittee's passage of the bill, both Reps. Green and Meehan thanked the many groups, including NACS, that worked together in bipartisan fashion to produce a bill that would help keep cheap cigarettes out of the hands of minors.
"This legislation would be a major step forward for the over 132,000 convenience stores operating in the United States," said Allison Shulman, NACS' director of government affairs. "This would level the playing field and ensure that remote merchants will no longer have a tax advantage over traditional retailers."
Last month, with the future of convenience stores' cigarette business very much at stake, NACS, the Society of Independent Gasoline Marketers of America (SIGMA) and the Petroleum Marketers Association of America (PMAA) organized a "Tobacco Lobby Day" to give retailers the opportunity to meet face-to-face with their elected leaders and express their support for remote sales legislation.
According to economist Patrick Fleenor, chief economist with Fiscal Economics, Inc., states are expected to lose nearly $500 million in taxes in fiscal year 2003 as a result of Internet sales of cigarettes. Lost state revenues could skyrocket to nearly $4 billion in fiscal year 2004, according to Fleenor's testimony before the Subcommittee on May 1, 2003.

I recently reviewed ten case-study videos on the Internet to choose one to review for StreamingMedia.com, and my review of that video will appear soon. I evaluated multiple factors in choosing a winner, including marketing focus, visual and audio quality, player presentation and encoded configuration. The clear winner in my mind was a case study produced by network security vendor Watchguard Technologies. The case study featured their client, the Burlington Public Library, and was memorable for multiple reasons that I detail in the review, among them the stunning video quality shown below. To watch the case study on YouTube, click here.
As part of the StreamingMedia story, I interviewed the two principle creators of the video; WatchGuard's Director of Marketing Communication, Margaret Liddiard, who identifies the case study candidates and the key target messages, and David Sly, president of Ideba Marketing, who oversees all aspects of production, and after an iterative review process with Margaret, delivers the final video. They graciously spent an hour with me, covering the case study creation process from start to finish. The result, which I present in interview format, is an excellent primer for anyone looking for nuts and bolts details on everything from how to use videos in your marketing efforts to how to actually produce the videos.
Since both Margaret and David answered most questions together, I won't specify who said what in the interview.
As a quick aside, note that I summarized what I learned while reviewing the ten case studies in Producing Video Case Studies, which you can read by clicking here.
Overview – Using Video in Marketing
Question: WatchGuard uses video a lot in your marketing efforts; how did that come about?
Answer: We started using video as instructional aids about 4-5 years ago, and found them really great teaching tools that allowed us to show our customers scenarios like how a real life hack works and how our products thwart them. From there, it was a natural move to start producing case studies, since peer recommendations hold much more weight than any other source of product information for our potential customers.
In addition to using the videos on our own site and YouTube, we find them very effective as prestitial ads for web security and IT oriented web sites, and show them at trade shows and partner meetings. They've been great for producing both general awareness of our products and lead generation.
Question: How do you choose the clients to interview?
Answer: We generally have an agenda that we want to promote and find a happy client consistent with that agenda who's willing to participate. For example, Burlington Public Library was a natural because we target libraries and schools, and because they use the product to filter out adult web sites and other inappropriate content, which is a showcase feature for our product.
At a high level, we look at all of our case studies together as weaving a tapestry that defines our products. That way, we don't have to cover all the product features in each case study, just those that support the agenda for that particular case study. This approach lets us keep each case study short – usually around 2:00 minutes of actual video — and highly focused. It also helps us ensure that all of our case studies are unique and cover different subjects.
[Editorial Note: The Burlington Library video is 3:23 in length, with about 20 seconds in both the front and back for summary text, making the body of the actual video around 2:40.]
Question: You use YouTube to deliver all of your videos, embedding YouTube videos on your own web site, and of course, making them available on YouTube. What are your thoughts there?
Answer: It was a no brainer to go to YouTube; it's the place where lots of viewers go to find instructional videos from us and our competitors, and gets far more traffic than our own web site. We support these efforts by being active on both Facebook and Twitter, which drives further video views.
Question: What about the lack of analytics like drop off statistics that you could get with a paid service?
Answer: Well, we know how many folks start watching our videos, and because they're short and highly focused, we assume the good prospects will watch all the way through.
We've also flip flopped on the amount of control we try to keep over all of our marketing assets. Years ago, we'd require registration to see product information and other collateral, and had to have metrics on everything. But it doesn't work. Tech consumers are way savvier than that and aren't willing to interact with sites where they think their every move is being tracked and recorded.
Now our goal is to engage and educate as many people as possible, and distributing our videos via YouTube supports that.

Well, 1; think I beard the signal answered tWice, t,t I remember rlght,and then 1 beard us give another signal; and it was not replied to, 'and 1 got out on deck. Q. What signal? A. Passing signal. Q. How many blasts? A. Two blasts. I did not hear It answered, and l.cameout on deck. Q.

With that, I saw the outline of the boat in the fog myself."
The captaitlOf the tug was in hia room, off'duty. His evidence was as follows: "Q. Now wlU you tell 'the with the time of your bearing

The lookout also says that the captain came. running on to the deck. It is very clear from this e'tidence that the failure of the Fountain City to reply to the third signal carried doubt as to her course to the of the mate, the captain, and the lookout. Counsel for appellee. admits in his brief that there was then uneasiness on the part of those navigating the tug as to where the Fountain City was, and what she was doing. That uneasiness was born of uncertainty, and uncertainty in a fog, when the vessels are so close together, imperatively requires that they shall stop and reverse. A minute-perhaps two. minutes-would have been gained, had the tug, instead of starboarding, stopped and reversed, when the Fountain City failed to answer. This would certainly have prevented the collision, because, as it was, the steamer struck the tug but a grazing blow. We think, therefore, that both vessels wel'e at fault. We shall therefore enter a decree in this court dividing the damages found between the two vessels, and dividing the costs of the court below and of the appeal
THE DECATUR H. MILLER. mTCH v. MERCHANTS' & MINERW TRANSP. CO. MERCHANTS' & MINERS' TRANSP. CO. v. HITCH. , (Circuit Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit. May 22, 1894.) No. 62.
COLLISION BETWEEN STEAMERS-LIGHTS-EvIDENCE.
The steam barge Susie Hitch, while on her voyage up Chesapeake bay. about 7 o'clock in the evening, was struck and sunk by the steamship
Decatur H. Miller. When sighted by the Hitch, the Miller was abput five minutes away, on the starboard bow, showing her green light. 'fhe Hitch blew two blasts of her whistle, and starboarded her helm. Hearing no response, she blew two more blasts. The Miller then shut out her green, and showed her red light, blew one blast, and at once came into the Hitch. The Hitch's side lights were set at 6 o'clock; were burning brightly at half past 6. Witnesses for the Miller testified that they saw no lights on the Hitch; but her mate testified in the circuit court that he saw them burning five minutes before the collieion. In his testimony in the district court, he did not fix the interval between the time he saw the lights and the collision within half an hour; but, in the protest made immediately after the accident, it was stated that he saw the lights five minutes before the collision. Held, that the Hitch was not in fault. Jackson, District Judge, dissenting.
The steamship Decatur H. Miller, bound down Chesapeake bay about 7 o'clock in the evening in October, struck and sunk the steam barge Susie Hitch. The Miller, when sighted by the Hitch, about five minutes before the collision, was In CralghllI channel, headed southeast by east, her proper course. The Hitch was off her starboard bow, in shoal water. Witnesses on the Miller testified that they saw no lights on the Hitch, and heard no blasts from her whistle. When the collision occurred, the vessels were in less than three fathoms of water, out of the channel, and the Miller was headed west, so that she would shortly have gone aground. Held, that the Miller was in fault.
Appeal from the Circuit Court of the United States for the District of Maryland. John H. Thomas, for Hitch. Wm. Pinkney Whyte, for the Decatur H. Miller. Before GOFF and SIMONTON, Circuit Judges, and JACKSON, District Judge. SIMONTON, Circuit Judge. These are an appeal and cross appeal from the decree of the circuit court of the United States for the district of Maryland in a cause of collision. The case was heard in the district court, and his honor, the district judge, holding both parties in fault, divided the damages. An appeal was taken to the circuit court, where further testimony was adduced, and a pro forma decree was entered, concurring in the finding of the district court, from which appeals were taken to this court. The libelant is the owner of a steam barge called the Susie Hitch. This steam barge plies between Hamilton, N. C., and the port of Baltimore, engaged principally in transporting lumber. She is 168 feet in length over all, 22i-feet beam, with a 6·foot hold. Her pilot house, 11 feet wide, is 115 feet from her stem. The boxes for her side lights were on each side of the after part of the pilot house, the inboard screen being 4 feet, leaving 3 feet clear. On the evening of the 11th of October, 1888, the Susie Hitch was on her voyage from Hamilton to Baltimore, and was proceeding up Chesapeake bay, moving at the rate of 2i to 3 miles an hour, with the wind dead ahead and high, the sea rough. The tide was about slack-water ebb. She was a half or three-quarters of a mile below Sandy Point light, out of and west of the channel in shoal water, when she came in collision with the Decatur H. Miller, a large passenger steamer
o.n the regular linebefween. Baltimorettnd Norfolk; oii her regular 'voyage 'to the Miller was going at the rate of 10' miles an hour, her, usual speed. She struck the Susie Hitch with her bow on the starboard side. about 30 feet from her stem, penetrating about 8 ot9fee t, cutting through a bu,lk of 5,000 feet of lum.ber, and into aJong1tudinal bulk;head. The Susie Hitch was supplied with lights,...,...one masthead light, bow light, back aft light, all of which were white, and the side lights green and red. She had ml1de frequent Yoyages qpand dowJ:l0hesapeake bay, and navigators on otber vessels in th,atbay had frequently observed 4er lights without difficulty: The side lights were six by eight globes, which had been inspected and passed by the local inspectors, and which are still "in!nse. 'The duty of trimming and caring for them devolved upon one ma.n of the took them down, trimmed them, and day, On the da,y of the collision, he trimmed these lights, and cleaned the glasses, between 1 and 2 o'clock. Aided by another of the crew, who testifies also, he put up about 6 o'clock, lighted them, and saw that theY were then burning brightly and wel'ein good order,and so left them. The master saw them a half nour afterwards, and they were burning brightly and seemed in good order. The mate of the Susie Hitch, a licensed pilot of the Chesapeake baY,saw the lights within five minutes before the collision, and they were in good order. This man had been eXaDlined before the district judge, but he did not fix the .interval· between his observation of the lights anq.tlle collision within a half hour. This was grounds op which the district judge, held the Hitch in one of fault The witness was recalled before the circuit court, and then he fixed the interval within five minutes. Ordinarily, this testimony, introduced under these circumstances, would be open to grave suspicion," and would 'be disregarded. But the protest of the master and crew made upon arrival in Baltimore immediately after the collision rnakes the statement that the mate saw the lights within five minutes ·before the tlOllision and found' them bright and burning. This shows that the testimony before tbecircuit court was not an afterthought. All the witnesses on the Miller-the mate, quartermaster, and lookout swear that just previous to the collision these lights on the Hitch were not in fact burning; that they never saw any red or green lights on her at all. This may be so. It is possible that thelights,or at least the green light, may have gone out after the:mate had! examined it. It was on the weather side of the barge, dlidthe night was rainy. 'But weare examining into the negligentleof those on the barge, and ascertaining if they were in fault. llthey had .seen to it that ,the lights were bright, burning, and in order when put. up at 6 o'clock, were in good order likewise at half op1Ist 6, and were in like good order at a few minutes after 7, within 5 minutes of the collision, surely it would be holding them to too strict an accountability if we say that they were in fault for not knOWing that they were not burning within those few minutes. We are of the opinion that the testimony introduced before the circuit court removed the difficulty experienced by the district judge as to the lights, and that these lights either were burning at
the time of the collision,. or had gone out just before the collision, without fault on the part of the Susie Hitch. When the Miller was first seen by the Susie Hitch, the latter was a little below Sandy green light and masthead light, Point. The Miller was showing and was off the starboard bow of the Hitch. She was apparently coming out of the Craighill channel, and was about three-quarters ofa mile off, less than five minutes away. At that point the Hitch blew two blasts of her whistle. As the Miller was to the windward in a strong wind, these were, not heard on her. The Hitch thenstarboarded her wheel. Hearing no response, she blew two more blasts, to which no reply was made. Up to this time the Miller showed only her green light. Suddenly she shut out her green light, showed her red light, blew' one blast of her whistle, and immediately came into the Susie Hitch. Now, when the Susie Hitch saw the green light of the Miller off her starboard bow, and hel' had, as we have seen, every reason to believe that the barge was showing to the steamship her green light, she naturally supposed that the two vessels could pass without collision. Starboarding her wheel threw the bow of the Hitch more to port, and so obviated any liability to error or confusion. See order in council adopted 30th July, 1868, commented on by Judge Brown in The !tlanitoba, 2 Flip. 241" Fed. Cas. No. 9,029; followed in New York in The Sylvester Hale, 6 Ben. 523, Fed. Cas. No. 13,712, and The America, 3 Ben. 424, Fed. Cas. No. 281; and finally adopted by congress 19th August, 1890 (26 Stat. 322). As the persons on the Miller in control of her navigation say that they did not hear the two blasts of the Hitch or see her colored lights, they were not mislead by her maneuvers. We cannot concur in the conclusion reached by the district judge, affirmed pro forma by the circuit court; and, under the special circumstances of this case, we hold that the Susie Hitch was without fault. We concur in the decree of the circuit court confirming the finding of the court that the Decatur H. Miller was in fault. She drew 16 feet aft and 14 feet forward, and was in the channel. The Susie Hitch drew 6 feet, and was in shoal water. The Miller went towards and came into collision with her at a point over a half mile from the channel, in water- 21 fathoms in depth. The true course of the Miller, and· the course she was on just before the collision, was down the channel southeast by east. When she struck the Susie Hitch, her course was nearly due west, heading on to the western shore, "which she would have struck had she gone where with those stated by the district she was going." These judge, show that the Decatur H. Miller was in fault. H is ordered that so much of the circuit decree holding the libelant responsible for half the damages and costs be reversed; that the case be remanded to the circuit court, with instructions to enter a decree against the stipulators of the Decatm H. Miller in the full amount of the damages and costs found in the circuit decree. JACKSON, District Judge (dissenting). I cannot agree with the conclusions of the court in this case. The evidence before the
distrlotcottrt tlle :judge, that it was a case of mutual ,'fQiJ.lt. ,t deem. it unnecessary to enter upon a full discussion of the eVid¢nce, as the,case'turns upon'the fact whether the, steamer Susie Ritch ·had her side' lights buming previous to the disaster, and; ,if: so, how long before the collision. occurred. On the hearing district court there was'no evidence that showed that the lights: 'Were burning at the time of, or shortly before the collision. After of thedistdct judge, the mate of the Hitch was recalled, and testified before the circuit court that he saw the lights minutes before the, collision. I place but little reliance the, statement made by this witness, as he knew at that.·.time that it was one' o{ the reasons assigned by the district judge for holding the 'Ritch in fault There is but little, if in in the weight evidence on this point. Some consideration is ,given to the fact that the protest stated that the lights of the Hitch 'Were 'burning at the time of the collision. I think that fact is of little. consequence, as we find from experience that aU protests, when!t is deemed 'essential, contain that most important 'fact. If the were' Hurning so that the Miller could see them, and still sbesteamM directly on until the collision occurred,she would not but of criminal, negligence.· She could not' have seen the lights. It is impossible to believe tMtthe officers, in charge of a large steamer of her size would rutl a boat down under the circumstances daimed by the libelant in this case. There was no apparent motive for such conduct, and, be'forewe should jUdge the Miller to be wholly in fault, we mustflnd, .n,ot only there was no negligence upon the part ()f the Hitch, but that the officers of the Miller, seeing all the lights burning oil the Hitch, heedlessly and needlessly produced the collision. ,This conClusion can only be reached after we are satisfied that there no motive for self-preservation, or that there existed somemaliGe on the part of the officers of the Miller against the officersOr/owners of the Hitch. The law of self-preservation always exists, and there is no evidence of malice. It is claimed by the Hitch that the Miller was out of the usual track for steam vessels 01. her size. This fact may be conceded, but it is not of 'itself a fault, and d,oes not amount to even contributory negligence. I know of no law that restricts her in her right to pursue any route up and down the bay that she thinks will best promote her interest. There is really but one solution to this case"andthat is to hold both responsible. I cannot believe the !ightswere burning. It is simply the old case of each crew standing by their boat, with no controlling circumstance to determine who is right or wrong. It is a rule of the courts of admiralty, in collision cases, found,ed not only on their experience, but upon justice, that, when the evidence is so conflicting as to render it uncertain as to who was at fault, to divide the loss between the parties. For the reasons assigned, I am of opinion to affirm the decree of the district court.
IMPERIAL LIFE INS. CO. v. NEWCOMB. I NEWCOMB v. IMPERIAL LIFE INS. CO. (Circuit Court of Appeals, Eighth Circuit. May 7,1894.J Nos. 343 and 369.
A.P1'EAL-OB,JECTJONS NOT RAISED BELOw-TRIAL BY REFEREE.
On writ of error to review a judgment entered on a. referee's report In an action at law, where there is no written stipulation waiving a jury, aBd nothing showing a reference under the state statute, and where there is no bill of exceptions, and no specific exception was taken to the overruling of exceptions to the referee's reP9rt, or to the judgment thereon at the time It was entered, although these rulings were assigned as grounds of a motion for a new trial, no question is presented for review.
In Error to the Circuit Court of the United States for the Eastern District of Missouri. This was an action by Charles M. Newcomb against the Imperial Life Insurance Company for services and expenses. A demurrer to the complaint was overruled. 51 Fed. 725. On trial before a referee, he reported in favor of plaintiff. Exceptions to the report were overruled, and Judgment for plaintiff was entered thereon. Both parties brought error. Hiram J. Grover, for plaintiff, Newcomb. Charles Nagel and Charles W. Bates, for defendant, Imperial Life Ins. Co. Before CALDWELL and SANBORN, Circuit Judges. CALDWELL, Circuit Judge. The defendant in error brought suit in the circuit court of the United States for the eastern district of Missouri, against the plaintiff in error, to recover $11,466.66 upon a quantum meruit for his services and expenses while acting as an insurance agent for the plaintiff in error. The contract between the parties was evidenced by three written agreements, which the plaintiff below averred the defendant had wrongfully terminated. A general demurrer to the complaint was overruled, and thereupon the defendant answered the merits, and the plaintiff filed a reply. We think the demurrer to the complaint was properly overruled, for the reasons stated in the opinion of the circuit court. Newcomb v. Insurance Co.. 51 Fed. 725. Moreover it is the settled doctrine of the supreme court that filing a plea to the merits after the demurrer is overruled is a waiver of the demurrer. Stanton v. Embrey, 93 U. S. 548; Campbell v.

In the view we take of the case, the contracts between the parties and the facts in the case, so far as they are disclosed by the record, need not be further noticed. The cause being at issue, the court made following order:
"Now comes the defendant, by attorney, and moves the court for an order of reference of this cause, upon consideration whereof it is orderf-d that said motion be, and the same is hereby, sustained, and that this cause be referred to a referee to hear and determine all of the issues therein."

The Dragon Con fantasy and sci-fi convention provides plenty of people watching, workshops and parties in downtown Atlanta over Labor Day weekend. MARTA is a great option for getting to and from the fun with the Peachtree Center MARTA station in the middle of it all. Here are five tips to make your commute easier so you can spend your time enjoying the festivities instead of worrying about your ride.
1. Know and Love the Peachtree Center Station
All of the action of Dragon Con (including the Saturday morning parade) takes place above the Peachtree Center MARTA station on the red and gold line. If you're traveling from the blue or green line, travel to the Five Points MARTA station and transfer to the first northbound train to reach Peachtree Center.
If you've never been to this station, heads up that it is very far underground and requires a long escalator ride up to the street. Use the elevator if you don't like heights or are prone to getting dizzy.
View walking directions to the host hotels to simplify your commute once off the train: Hyatt Regency, Marriott Marquis, Westin Peachtree Plaza, Hilton Atlanta and Sheraton. In all cases the John Portman exit off the train platform (not Ellis) is closest to the hotels. At street level you'll also find a CVS Pharmacy if you need any supplies.
For more information, see Navigating the Peachtree Center Station.
2. Use the App
Contrary to popular belief, trains typically run on schedule, and actually have a schedule. It is important to know that on Labor Day (Monday), the entire MARTA system runs on a Sunday schedule. But if you have the MARTA on the Go app for Android and iOS, you'll have access to the real-time arrival of trains. The app won't work once you're inside the Peachtree Center station because of its depth underground, so check arrivals before entering the station.
Otherwise, use Google Maps for MARTA trip planning. You'll also need to plan for alternate transportation if you are out after 1 a.m. You can use promo code MARTAGuide to get $20 off your first ride with Uber as one option.
3. Purchase Fare in Advance
MARTA fares are $2.50 one way. Ideally when you first buy or load a Breeze card (the MARTA fare card), you can put all the fare you need on it before the start of the weekend to save you time down the road. With many events taking place downtown at the same time as Dragon Con, there will likely be lines at the fare machines — even more reason to purchase in advance and in bulk. If you add fare to your existing card online, allow one hour for processing before riding rail.
If you don't plan to use MARTA other than getting to and from the convention, calculate how many one-way trips you will be taking and pay for those number of trips. However, if you want to do more exploring, MARTA offers one-, two-, three- and four-day passes that allow unlimited rides. The one-day pass for example, is a deal if you will make four or more trips in a day.
4. Park and Ride
Many MARTA stations around the city have free daily parking — a great way to hack your commute. View your parking options here, including good places to park around Atlanta's interstates based on your direction of travel. Additionally, some stations offer overnight parking if you need a place to leave your car. Rates are $5 or $8 per day depending on the location. Explore MARTA's long-term parking lots to learn more.
5. Stay at a Hotel Near MARTA
If you can't find a hotel to stay at near Peachtree Center, book a hotel that is near the red or gold rail line for easy rail access and an easy ride to Dragon Con. A hotel in Midtown near the North Avenue, Midtown or Arts Center station is your next best bet. Buckhead also has a few hotel options, but the commute is slightly longer. View all hotels near MARTA to view your options.

My Answer To Jodi Meadows' Anniversary Giveaway!
Posted by Krystal Larson at 3:34 AM Tuesday, November 19, 2013
Along the way to our destination, we would always stop at out-of-the-way antique shops and small village towns. There would always be something new to discover from ice cream flavors to odd sculptures to unique artwork. I loved the flavors, smells, and sights that each state held. It was always fascinating to see how different and yet similar (an oxymoron, I know) that each state was. I admit that I used to complain about these family trips (until it became "fun" in my childlike mind), but as I look back I have to say that a good half of my childhood memories are based around these trips. After writing this post, I feel like going up to my parents to thank them!

Exploring North America
Exploring North America tells of the many ventures it took to map out this vast country - from the Spanish treasure-hunters and their quest northwards from Mexico in search of gold, to De Soto's journey from Florida and his discovery of the Mississippi River, to Lewis and Clark's expedition from the east coast to the west coast. You will read about why the explorers set out, how they traveled, hazards they encountered along the way, and more. Clear maps and superb reconstructions bring these journeys vividly to life.

"Team Assembled"
Chapter 4 – The Enemies of Destiny
Night had fallen over the Fire Nation Capital. And this time, it was a peaceful night. Or at least, so it seemed.
In her house, Mai had got a visit from her deep love, Ty Lee. They sat at the bed together. Ty Lee was crying, and she was comforted by Mai.
"Are you sure you can't stay?" Ty Lee asked.
"I'm afraid I don't have any choice," Mai said. Ty Lee gave Mai a passionate kiss.
"I will never forget you. I will always love you, Mai. Very, very much," Ty Lee said.
"I love you too, Ty Lee," Mai said, followed by a tear from her eye as well. Someone knocked the door.
"I have to leave now," Mai said and got up from the bed. Ty Lee grabbed Mai's hand and gave her one last kiss, before Mai took her purse and opened the door. A man stood outside.
"Hello, Zheng," Mai said and curtsied.
"Are you ready to get married?" Zheng asked.
"Yes. I'm all yours," she said. He grabbed her hand, and they started walking out of the house.
Ty Lee stayed in the house. Though she cried about the fact that the love of her life was completely gone, she soon managed to say to herself:
"No ... my aura ...". She sighed and continued.
"Mai's not gone. Mai's not gone. Mai's not gone. She's still in my heart. And she will always be with me. Always."
Twenty years later:
The people of the Water Tribe loved cold, so they often raised families in self-build houses even on the tundra.
It was late night in the Northern Water Tribe. Darkness had fallen over the frozen tundra, and since the spirit portals were closed, the full moon was all alone about giving any light to the landscape.
Therefore, in a tiny house located nearer the end of tundra, it was pretty dark, but the people living in the house had this small campfire thing to keep them a bit warm.
Mai was sitting on one side of this campfire, and her six suns sat on the other side. .
"When does dad come home?" one of them asked.
"I don't know," Mai answered in her classic way to talk. The door opened, and a girl arrived inside. Though she did not have any arms, this cold water easily replaced them, making her feel nice and wet.
"Welcome back, Ming-Hua," Mai said. Her daughter did not say hello back. She just sat down in the only place where no one did already sit.
"Where's dad?" she asked.
"He's on a hunting again," Mai informed.
"I'm going out with Min tonight," Ming-Hua said, referring to a friend of her. .
"Can't you stay home, sister? Please!" one of her brothers asked.
"Why? Are you too afraid of that dark spirit monster? So that you can't even use your own waterbending to defend yourself and your family?" Ming-Hua asked.
"Yes, but ..." he started. Ming-Hua got up again.
"Mom, you've got your knives if my sissy brothers are too afraid to do what real men would've done when in danger," she said and went outside the house.
Then suddenly, everyone could hear a big roar, coming from this dark spirit who was now coming very fast against their house. Mai came outside. .
"Oh no," she said worried.
"Don't worry mom. I'll handle it," Ming-Hua assured. She used her skilled waterbending to keep the dark spirit away from the house, but she did not calm it down at all.
While Ming-Hua kept the fight going, her friend Min arrived, and she got this thought inside herself. "Yup. Just another normal day at Ming-Hua's house".
The fight from the tundra easily got the attention of Prince Unalaq, who knew how to deal with dark spirits. He could see the fight from his room in the palace, and therefore he ran outside and out on the tundra.
"Stay away! Then I'll deal with it!" Unalaq yelled. Ming-Hua let go of her water, and Unalaq grabbed it himself. He surrounded the spirit with water, and did his fancy spiritbending to make it light and let it leave the tundra in peace.
"Thank you very much, Prince Unalaq," Mai said.
"No problem, Mai," Unalaq said, smiled, and leaved. Mai went back inside the house.
"Dude. Unalaq's a pretty boring guy, don't you think?" Min asked.
"I think it's kinda sexy," Ming-Hua said.
The two girls went to the capital city, where most people had already went into their houses to sleep. However, they noticed that something was going on.
In a corner, a crowd of people was standing, and it was clear that they were arguing about something. A notable person involved in the argue was Prince Unalaq himself.
"What are those guys babbling about?". Ming-Hua and Min went towards them.
"Calm down, guys. My father has done decision. Deal with it," Unalaq said to the rest of the people who clearly was protesting against something.
"What's going on here?" Ming-Hua asked.
"The chief wants to double our taxes!" one guy said.
"And my family won't be able to pay them. We'll all die!" a little girl said.
Ming-Hua, coming from a pretty poor family herself, knew what it was like struggling to earn money, and she was totally against this kind of strict policy.
"And you're supporting that, Prince Unalaq?" Ming-Hua asked.
"I need to trust my father's decision," Unalaq said.
"Are you crazy?!" Ming-Hua yelled and got this evil look in her eyes. Her water arms turned into sharp ice arms and she suddenly looked more violent. .
"Calm down, Ming-Hua," Unalaq said. But Ming-Hua did not calm down at all. She changed one of her arms back to water and used it to grab Unalaq with it, threatening with killing him with the sharp ice arm.
"Listen to me carefully, my dear prince," she yelled. .
"I want you to return to the palace, and tell your foolish father to ...". Until now she had kept this evil look in her eyes, but suddenly, her eyes became nearly wet, and she let go of Unalaq in that moment. .
"I'm so sorry!" she screamed, breaking into tears and ran away from the crowd, including her friend, Min.
Ming-Hua ran to her hiding place, a small lake called the Star Lake. This was a place where she was all alone. She sat down beyond the lake, and cried. After letting her face be placed at the knees for a while, she looked up on the full moon.
"Please ... Someone ... Make it stop. I can't live like this anymore," she begged. Her eyes were filled with new tears. Then, she could hear a familiar voice. It was actually Prince Unalaq.
"I know what happens to you when you act like this," he said. Ming-Hua shied a bit at first.
"Wanna sit down?" she asked, however. Unalaq sat down next to her.
"I've always seen you, Ming-Hua. I know how you think inside yourself when you act like you do," he said.
"Well, if you know me so good ... you should know that I believe in freedom. How can you take your father's side? My mom has suffered enough. Probably even more than I know". She started crying more.
"Actually, I'm not taking my father's side. I want freedom, like you". She could not believe that.
"What are you talking about?! You acted like you want to double the taxes. It will make my family even poorer," she said.
"I don't want my father to discover that I'm against him before I'm gone," Unalaq said. Ming-Hua did not understand.
"Gone? What do you mean?" she asked.
"I've got the feeling that there's more people like me out there. People like us," he said.
"Us?" she asked.
"We know it. Both you and I want to live in a different world," he said.
"True. But we're not doing the same things to success in our goals. You're planning to leave the tribe and meet people 'like us' living 'out there'. I don't want to do anything. I could've engaged myself more in the stuff going in the city, letting it play a more central role instead of turning all the attention over to me. I could've helped the crowd by giving you the beating you deserved. But instead ... I just ... This happens a lot..."
While Ming-Hua talked about all this, she did not cry anymore, but now even new tears popped up.
"It's like I'm hitting some sore point ... I change ... In one moment I'm calm and controlled, fit for fight ... and in the next ... I just ... I can't handle anything. It's like there's ... two of me". She looked up on the full moon again. When she slowly let her eyes look down at the water, she could glimpse an old woman in a green dress comforting an armless waterbender like herself, only a generation younger than the oldest, who was crying, though she seemed to be safe with her kind friend. .
"Your silence will not protect you. But you will be safe. Ultimately. I promise," the older said.
This vision changed Ming-Hua's attitude completely. This old but pleasurable voice that assured her that she would be safe made her very silent at the moment.
Unalaq took it as she was just very, very tired. Therefore, he decided to follow her back to her house so that she could get some sleep.
After Ming-Hua had went to bed, her mother, Mai, again thanked Prince Unalaq for helping the family.
The next morning, Ming-Hua was still very calm due to yesterday night's vision, though she still went to the capital city.
While she was walking on the street, without having any specific goals, she was soon met by her friend Min.
"There you are! Are you okay? What happened yesterday?". Ming-Hua could not help but ignore her paranoid friend. However, when she met Prince Unalaq, she finally did say a word, though with a very wry voice.
"Feeling better?" he asked.
"I'm fine," she said, though deep inside herself she knew she had never really felt bad. At least not when acting like this version of herself.
"I've got a visit from some new friends outside the city who would love to meet you. Will you come with me?" Unalaq asked. Ming-Hua did not have very much to do, and due to the fact that she in general was a bit spaced out right now, she accepted the invitation and followed Unalaq.
After walking in almost an hour, without really talking, they reached a small hut.
"They're staying inside here," Unalaq said. They went inside. Three guys were sitting around a table. Unalaq presented them to each other.
"Ming-Hua, this is Xai Bau and his recruits Ghazan and Aiwei. Guys, this is Ming-Hua". Ghazan got up from his chair and gave his hand to Ming-Hua, unknowing about the fact that she did not have any arms.
"I don't use arms, stupid," she said. Ghazan kept smiling.
"Nice to meet you too," he said and sat down again.
"Ming-Hua is born without arms. She uses water as a substitute for her missing limbs," Unalaq explained.
"What's the point with this?" Ming-Hua asked.
Xai Bau was probably the right person to explain, so he did. He told her the story of him being a former member of the Order of the White Lotus and the fact that he and the others, including Unalaq, all wanted to change to world to a disorder type of world. They wanted her to be a part of it.
"Yeah ... I'm not interested," Ming-Hua declared and walked out of the hut. Everyone was very surprised, as Unalaq had described Ming-Hua as the perfect recruit for their organization. .
"I'll be right back," Unalaq said and followed her.
"Ming-Hua, wait! Why did you say no?! I thought this was something you wanted," he said.
"Unalaq! Stop it. I'm a bit confused. I need some space," she said and leaved him alone.
In the afternoon, Ming-Hua took a warm bath. She felt very relaxed, and after finishing at the bathroom, she felt like sleeping.
While the past night's vision was something that made her feel good, she was this night exposed to a horrible nightmare which was going to change her life forever.
Ming-Hua herself was the light version of herself, but she could see the dark version of herself, standing at her hiding place beyond the lake, with her back against. It was full moon.
The dark Ming-Hua slowly turned back, and when the light Ming-Hua finally got to see the dark Ming-Hua's face, she noticed that the eyes were gone. It was just ... black.
The dark Ming-Hua actually used her water arms to drag the light Ming-Hua down in the lake. However, the water of the lake turned into mud, and though the light Ming-Hua tried to refuse it, the dark Ming-Hua was far too overwhelming. As a result, they were both dragged into the mud and everything got completely dark.
Mai was still her old self. She had this dark, pretty negative personality, and so she was liking to go outside in the middle of the night alone. The most important reason, however, was the fact that she wanted to look at the sky and think about Ty Lee.
Mai was on her way outside, but she noticed that someone else was awake in the house. She went inside the bedroom of Ming-Hua's six brothers, but they were all asleep. It made sense to her that it was Ming-Hua who was awake, as she had already acted pretty strange the last days.
Mai went into Ming-Hua's bedroom to see if she was awake, but no one was there. Mai assumed that Ming-Hua had went outside the house, but when Mai walked through the corridor she could hear the sound of steps.
"Hello? Ming-Hua?"
No one answered.
Ming-Hua was standing in the corner of the small corridor, and her mother could not spot her from there. One thing that was a bit strange this time was that she was kind of switching between her two selves. She whispered to herself.
"Okay. I can't keep living like this. I have to join those guys. I need to do this. Forgive me, dear mom."
Mai could barely hear the words, though enough to understand that someone was there.
"Who's there?!"
Suddenly, Ming-Hua formed some water into sharp ice and ran as fast as she could against her mother, and in the end, she was sticking the ice through her mother's back so that it came outside her stomach, and she started to bleed.
Leaving her mom at the floor, Ming-Hua ran away as fast as she could.
Mai's last words before she died was spoken by her when she could barely breath.

Great Movie Classics
I found that I have a sketch parodying Casablanca which was preceded by this title card. Was it used for any other segments, or was this a one time thing? — Scott (talk) 23:41, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
I propose to change the column we are now calling "Earliest Known Appearance" in all of the sketch listings, to simple "Appearances." Regarding the most recent discussion ay SSNews, it's become clear to me that there's some confusion over how that operator works and how we use it.
Just as much as I think it's sketchy (ha, no pun intended) to "cite" a season as the first appearance of a sketch (for reasons that have been expressed there), I think we could do better than to provide pretense for our intentions regarding how early we've so far been able to find a real liive actual source for a sketch appearance. That is to say, I see now that it's confusing to someone who hasn't read our talk page discussions about the criteria for which we support the claims being made for such citations. I think it would serve us more clearly to instead list all the episodes in which a sketch has appeared. Providing episode numbers allows regular contributors to fact-check the claims being made. It also doesn't make the wiki look like we're trying to say something we're not, or that we don't know what we're doing. It's justa plain and simple list, and having them chronologically allows for the reader to see for themselves what the earliest known appearance is. — Scott (talk) 14:57, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
- I'd like to see how that would work, since I'm not sure how it would fit within the current table format if you had, say, 6 to 8 different episode links for the same sketch. That said, it makes sense to me, but would we do the same for those, like the sketches from Episode 0001 and so forth, where there's absolutely no question of when the first appearance was? Such cases are few and far between, sure, but if there's definite sources and proof beyond "guessing" that a sketch not only appeared in an episode but debuted on it, that seems worth making a distinction for. -- Andrew Leal (talk) 15:04, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
- It's very, very simple:
Known Appearances Episode 0021
Episode 0153
Episode 0569
Episode 1193
Episode 1560
Episode 2241|}
- Yeah, but I'd like to see that in an actual context, as I'm wondering about how it would potentially stretch out the space. And now I'm confused again. Is the point specifically to show an "earliest" appearance or "earliest known?" By that I mean, if the purpose is to avoid being misleading, what does this do in those cases when an episode is indeed the very first appearance and not just the earliest one in our database? Or is that just quibbling? Plus, I'm not so sure it solves the problem raised in the earlier discussion. The whole "guessing game" bit seemed to apply to skits which, as of now, aren't included in any actual episode listings. Unless that was merely the springboard for this proposal, and it's not actually intended to answer that issue. -- Andrew Leal (talk) 15:37, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
- I don't object to it. In theory (if someday we actually could document every SS episode) this could show how popular a sketch was, and when it first appeared (and even last appeared). But a sketch could have, you know, 30 lines of "episodes xxxx", that could get cumberson and streach the table out to get all messy and ugly (especially if there is not much text or pictures to balance out). That's my only concern. -- Brad D. (talk) 18:19, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Kairos Autumn 2016 - How You Can Help
October 15, 2016
We will have three parishioners serving with inside teams at two Kairos Prison Ministry Weekends this Autumn.
Wayne Krueger will be working with Death Row inmates at Kairosn Weekend #5 at Chillicothe Correctional Institution beginning Thursday, October 20 and ending on Sunday, October 23. Wayne writesL
"I would greatly appreciate your prayers for our team as we share the good news of God's love and forgiveness for the prisoners with whom we will meet so they may experience God's presence and give them hope in their lives. Thank you."
For more info on how you can help, and for online prayer vigil signup, visit our special Kairos news page.
Thank You Cards from Prisoners
The men whom God brought to recent Kairos Weekends at Warren Correctional Institute want to thank all those who prayed, baked, cooked, and served during those weekends. They put their thanks on the attached greetings. The art work was done by the men, themselves. Just click on the photos for the full-size versions.
Icons of Christ in Prison
About the 'Christ in Prison' icon:
It came to pass because some of us who were going to the prison each week commented that it was true that we meet Christ when we visit His brethren. I had been talking to Fr. Ted in Dayton about his prison ministry, and he told me that one of his guys wrote icons. I got in contact with the inmate, and he did this icon for us. It is a very traditional image, except that Christ is wearing an Ohio prison uniform. The icon was a blessing to several of us at the OCPM gathering in Denver, and the original went home with a man whose son is in prison.
