|HOME --> All Plants and Seeds INDEX --> Herbs INDEX --> Garlic Bulbs and Seeds
|Plant and Seed Mobile Friendly Index
The use of garlic for medicinal and culinary purposes is nearly as old a civilization. Easy to grow and nearly carefree, it thrives in almost any soil, but is especially fond of rich, deeply cultivated soil.
There are almost as many varieties of garlic as geographic locations, but these are all placed in two basic categories: hardneck and softneck. Hardneck garlic has a stiff central woody stem and peels easily. The flavor is usually fairly mild and the cloves store for 6-8 months. These are the best types for cooler climates as they tend to be more cold hardy than softneck varieties. Softneck, or braiding garlics do not produce a flower spike and are more productive than the hardneck types. They tend to have a stronger flavor and keep far longer (up to a year).
Garlic can be planted in both spring and autumn, but it tends to produce better and earlier if planted in the fall.
White German - White bulbs have tight wrappers and have a moderately spicy taste. A good choice for storage. Average 6-8 bulbs per pound with 7-10 cloves per bulb.
Chesnok Red - This variety from Georgia (the country, not the US state) has maroon striped skins and a medium hot flavor that remains after baking. Average 6-8 bulbs per pound with 9-11 cloves per bulb. (C. Red is shipped in Fall only)
Late Italian - One of the most popular for braiding and for winter keeping (stores up to 9 months after harvest). Average 5-6 bulbs per pound with 18-22 cloves per bulb. (Late Italian is shipped in Fall only)
|#1088F 1 pound $34.95
|#B5-1088 5 pounds $145.00
Inchelium Red - Mild flavored garlic bakes well and stores for up to 9 months after harvest. Average 6-8 bulbs per pound with 9-18 cloves per bulb. (Inchelium Red is shipped in Fall only)
|#1089F 1 pound $39.30
|#1090F 1 pound $34.95
|#B1lb-1087F Garlic flakes 1lb $38.00
|#B1lb-1087GR Garlic, granulated 1lb $38.00
|#B1lb-1087G Garlic powder 1lb $38.00

L.A. Girl Matte Pigment Gloss in Dreamy
24 Aug 2016
As a lipstick addict, I must say that I don't own a huge number of lip products (ok, I have to define what I mean by huge number). And yes, I envy the girls who do. And yes, I want to have a big collection of makeup products but let's get real, I know that with a minimum wage and the fact that I am not going to use all these products, my purchases have reduced. Also, I tend to buy affordable products and I am very pleased with the quality of some affordable brands like the L.A. Girl Cosmetics.
But sadly, this liquid product must be the driest thing I have ever used on my lips. OMG, I have never experienced such a discomfort. As soon as you apply the product and it is still liquid, everything is ok. But minutes later, nightmare! My lips were extremely dry, I used to lick them every 5 seconds to moisten them and I wanted this thing off my lips as soon as possible.
But for the sake of testing this product out, I left it to see it's performance. As I said above, it lasted 6 hours on my lips but in the meantime, it started flaking so bad. Also, it was extremely hard to remove, and I notice that when I I swatched it at the back of my hand, I tried to remove it with a makeup removing wipe and it was not easy.
This lip product is a huge disappointment! Have you tried any of these?

New products for hair - BioOil by BioPharma*
22 Aug 2016
When is comes to taking care of my hair, I must admit that I am quite thoughtful and choosy to what products I will buy and use. I always see the commercials on tv with girls flashing their shiny and soft hair, and I always wanted to have shiny, soft and 'commercial' like hair. But mother nature made sure I had the most frizzy hair anyone could have and I wish I had the kind of hair that needs no maintenance and you wake up in the morning and you are ready to go! I wish!

A favourite face oil: Ikarov Anti-age face oil
3 Aug 2016
I have been using face oils for quite some time now and they definitely make a huge difference in the texture of my skin. I cannot think of my beauty routine without using a face oil; day or night. And even though I have combination to oily skin, this does not stop me from using a face oil as it does a great job in hydrating my skin and I would use anything that acts against early aging.

Milani Baked Blush - 03 Berry Amore
1 Aug 2016
Hello girls! How are we today? This is a new month and a new post! How is it August already? Isn't it yesterday that it was May and we were so anxious and excited for summer to start? Anyways, I hope you are having a lovely summer so far (and you are handling the hot hot weather well, here in Cyprus the weather is 40-42°C. I want to be every day at the beach and enjoying my cocktail. Can I do that?
This is my first Milani blush I have ever ordered and although I love to go to a store and swatch all products available in the shelf, most of the time I order online cause here in my country, not all brands are available. So I place lots of orders online and pray to God that I will receive what I ordered and not a strange shade/colour that is not wearable.

B&W Plumbing and Heating: Water Heater Warranties Simplified
Call B&W Plumbing and Heating, The Professionals in the Big, Black Trucks. Home of the Same Day Water Heater.
Another thing to remember is that all warranty transactions use the original date of installation. Example:
If the water heater is a Whirlpool and was purchased a home center or hardware store, the part must be returned to the store where purchased for the part warranty to be honored. We will be happy to remove/install any parts for the customer, but the customer will have to go to the store for the replacement parts.
Now lets talk tank warranty. What a consumer first understand about residental gas tank water heaters is that there are two (2) types. For lack of better terms, we call them "Old Design" and "New Design." Several years ago, a law was passed requiring all tank type gas water heaters produced after July 1, 2003 to incorporate a Flammable Vapors Ignition Resistance design so that the gas burners will not ignite flammable vapors from liquid spills in the vicinity of the water heater. The manufacturers had already produced a large quantity of the "Old Style" water heaters before the deadline so they were still sold beyond the July 1, 2003 production deadline. Any gas water heater produced after that date are the "New Design."
If a tank leaks or fails with any "New Design" gas water heater and it is still in warranty, the water heater can be replaced under the tank warranty. If the labor warranty has expired, the home owner will still have to pay for installation for their replacement water heater. The replacement water heater's warranty date is still six (6) years from the original water heater's installation date, not the replacement date. Example:
If the tank leaks or fails with any "Old Design" gas water heater and it still has a tank warranty, then the homeowner can replace the the water heater replaced under warranty. The homeowner will have to pay for installation and an upgrade charge for the "New Design" water heater. The good new in this scenario is that with the upgrade charge, the the water heater's warranty will extend another six (6) years. The upgrade charge varies by manufacturer. Example:
If your water heater is not working or is leaking, just give us a call at (317) 243-3581 or click http://www.bplusw.com/
We also install and service the following water heater manufacturers:

Mechelle Voepel (2:05 PM)
Good afternoon. I was in North Carolina/South Carolina this past Saturday-Tuesday. Just missed the big storm. Feel fortunate to have gotten back home. Will be returning, weather permitting, on Sunday. So ... let's get started.
kevin (macon ga)
Will we ever see Lauren Jackson in the W again?
Mechelle Voepel (2:06 PM)
Let's hope so. She says she wants to return. She'll be 33 in May, and then she has the World Championship this fall. If she's healthy enough, I guess maybe 2015 is a possibility for returning to the WNBA. Not sure about 2016, as that seems likely to be her last appearance at the Olympics. Unless she decides to match Taj McWilliams-Franklin in the longevity department. :)

New LA Sparks owners get the team revved up to a new level of performance and consistency, or same very bright prospects but potentially mixed results in playoffs?
Mechelle Voepel (2:08 PM)
Great point ... there should be lots of enthusiasm for the Sparks, and with Gail Goestenkors and Gary Kloppenburg on the bench, that is a lot of coaching firepower. But it's not as if Minnesota is backing away from being the top team in the West. And Phoenix should also be very good. LA will face the same challenges it has been facing.
Stephen (Austin)
Is Baylor the most unexpected success story this year? Are they getting the respect they deserve. Am I wrong in thinking that a bad loss at Kansas is the only thing that is keeping them from a potential #1 seed come Selection Monday.
Mechelle Voepel (2:13 PM)
Even Kim Mulkey has said her team has performed better than she expected it to, for having so many young players, and players in very different roles. I was at the loss at Kansas, and that was just a young team that was mentally not in the game that day. As for No. 1 seeds ... let's see if Baylor can get through the rest of the Big 12 season and the tournament undefeated. It will be interesting to see how well Texas plays against Baylor in their rematch on Sunday in Austin. Baylor won the first game, in Waco, 87-73 at the beginning of the month. That's the only game Texas has lost in its last six.
Matthew (Kentucky)
Hello Mechelle. I hope you're doing well. I have two questions:1) Ultimately, what regional do you see UConn being sent to in the tournament?2) If UConn and Notre Dame do play in the Final Four, what would be the biggest keys/matchup that would determine the outcome - and who do you believe would win?
Mechelle Voepel (2:17 PM)
Charlie Creme has the Huskies going to Louisville ... as of this week. That's based on the geographic S-curve, which he has explained a lot in his Bracketology breakdowns. Now, what we don't know is whether the committee will follow their usual procedures and principles since this year has the odd factor of having home sites for the regionals for the first time in many years. This year will be an outlier in that regard, and we really just don't know if it will cause the committe to "free-lance" when it comes time to making decisions. And there are some x-factors among the other teams in the running for No. 1 and No. 2 seeds, in terms of how they finish the regular season and do in their league tournaments. If UConn and ND meet, I think the key is whether the Irish can find any way to slow down Breanna Stewart. At least a little.
Conner (Waco, TX)
If Baylor continues playing like they are, what are your views on them making the Final Four?
Mechelle Voepel (2:22 PM)
It really comes down to what matchups they get in their bracket. That is the case every season with *almost* every team except those few that you are pretty confident can win any matchup. Baylor was that kind of team the last two years ... and yet still didn't make the Final Four in one of those years, of course. At any rate, this year, as mentioned earlier, there is the added factor that Notre Dame, Stanford, Louisville and Nebraska are hosting regionals. So the odds of teams going to the Final Four are also going to be impacted by what regional they are in. So all that said, does Baylor have the personnel to make a Final Four run if their bracket is more advantageous? Yes, I really think they do.
Kaleigh (PA)
What are your thoughts on the player of the year? I have got to think that Stanford?s loss to Washington hurts Chiney. I know Odyssey Sims? ppg is impressive, but I have found her to be reckless at times. While Breanna Stewart does not need to do as much for her team to be successful, she consistently steps up when it is required.
Mechelle Voepel (2:24 PM)
I picked Breanna Stewart as projected POY in the preseason, and as of right now I see no reason to change that. I think she has been very consistent and very, very good. She's the hardest part of the UConn "puzzle" to try to solve, if you are attempting to figure out how to beat them.
kevin (macon ga)
Will Gail Goestenkors new gig with the Sparks stop her name from being mentioned for every big college job?
Mechelle Voepel (2:28 PM)
No, I think if anything it will mean she's mentioned more. She is refreshed and rejuvenated, ready to get back into coaching after being in a consultant's role last year. Whether she ever returns to coach in college may depend on if there's a situation that really appeals to her. She doesn't have to make a decision based on salary; rather, it's about where she'd be really happy. And that is a great position to be in. For now, she's really looking forward to working regularly with the pro players, as she did when she was an assistant with the national team.
Brandon Jenn (Riverside Iowa.)
how many more games will iowa lose this year. what will be there final big ten record be. thanks
Mechelle Voepel (2:32 PM)
Predict the Big Ten? Yikes, that's hazardous. If I have their schedule right ... I think they've still got Illinois twice, Purdue, Michigan and Ohio State. The game at Purdue could be really tough, and so could the game at Michigan. They've beaten Ohio State already in Columbus. I'll be optimistic, since the Hawkeyes have played well recently, and say they go 4-1 in that stretch. That would put them at 11-5 in the Big Ten. But even going 3-2 would still leave them in good shape. Then we'll have the craziness of the Big Ten tournament, though.
jbb1985 (under snow, more snow, periscope up)
Are the Carolinas for real? Do you anticipate U of SC to make the SEC race and tourney a 4-way challenge, or is it Tenn. vs. TAMU vs. UK (if they right themselves)? Do you expect UNC to enter the semi-settled ACC situation of ND on top with Duke and MD jostling behind, hoping to upset the Irish in reg season or tourney?
Mechelle Voepel (2:39 PM)
I think South Carolina is more "for real" at this point because they are a more discplined, experienced team, despite their youth. I say this, though, knowing that if North Carolina hits shots like they did against Duke, they are very scary. South Carolina still has a gauntlet to face to end the regular season in the SEC: at LSU, at Kentucky, home vs. Florida and Georgia, at Tennessee. But I think they are a very good team, and they've certainly got their chemistry together now more than Kentucky does. As for North Carolina ... we knew that with all the freshmen, they were going to have ups and downs. Even as well as the Heels played at Duke on Monday, it would not shock me to see them lose three of their last six. But they have the ability to finish very strong, too. I just have more confidence in the consistency of South Carolina at this point - even though the Heels *did* beat the Gamecocks earlier this season.
Joe --ct [via mobile]
Do u think Tina Charles will get traded to LA for Nneka Ogwumike? If so why would ct trade Charles?
Mechelle Voepel (2:41 PM)
Much as I like Nneka as a player, I would not trade Charles ... unless she is absolutely unhappy and desperately wants out. And I don't know that to be the case, although there have been rumblings of her unhappiness. But you don't part with a young, very talented player who's been league MVP unless you feel you have little choice. At least, that's my view of it.
kevin (macon ga)
Would Breanna Stewart be the #1 pic if she was available in this year's draft?
Mechelle Voepel (2:43 PM)
Yes. I'd pick her if she were available in that spot without a moment's hesitation. And that is no disrespect meant to the seniors who will be in position to be taken first. I just think Stewart is that multi-dimensional and talented a player.
Brandon jenn (Riverside ia)
which game do you think iowa loses. purdue or Michigan or both.
Mechelle Voepel (2:43 PM)
At Purdue.
Phil (CT)
Does UCONN need to get out of the AAC?
Mechelle Voepel (2:43 PM)
Yes, but I don't know what options they really have.
Bill (Oklahoma City)
Baylor's Nina Davis - freshman of the year? Has anyone else done as well? 17 rebounds vs UCONN? And a chance for a first - Odyssey for player of the year and Nina for FOY?
Mechelle Voepel (2:45 PM)
Davis has been really good. I think right now, though, North Carolina's Diamond DeShields is the top freshman in the nation. There is still time for players to make their cases for all the awards.
Howard (Pennsylvanian Arctic)
Diamond DeShields: future NCAA POY? By the way, have you heard of any timeline on Sylvia H.'s return to the bench?
Mechelle Voepel (2:48 PM)
It's certainly possible with DeShields ... she is very talented, and she embraces the big moments. She's hard to guard, and if she keeps developing her game, will be even more difficult to stop. As for Coach Hatchell, she would like to return at some point this season, but that's a hard thing to put a "timeline" on, because it really does depend on how she continues to respond to treatments. Sylvia, I guarantee you, is pushing as hard as she can to return. Her doctors are going to have to be cautious, though. And deep down, she understands that.
brian (lexington)
Kentucky has a pretty tough schedule towards the end of the season with UT, Vandy, A&M, USC and underrated Miss State. How do you see that turning out? How many wins do you think they need in the SEC to guarantee a tournament berth?
Mechelle Voepel (2:56 PM)
The fact that they've lost three of their last five is a concern. The Wildcats really do have to pull it together, because this is a tough finish to their SEC season. Even a team with a losing SEC record like Mississippi State is potentially dangerous, especially because that game is in Starkville. I think Kentucky would still be OK even with a 7-9 league record (in terms of making the NCAA field), but if that were the case, they wouldn't have very much confidence at all entering the SEC tournament. Realistically, I think the Wildcats can go 4-2 in this closing stretch, and then feel pretty good about the postseason. But they have to right the ship.
Howard (Pennsylvanian Arctic)
What odds might you give WVU for coming out on top of the Big 12? I'm beginning to think they're Big Time Sleepers, even on the national scene.
Mechelle Voepel (3:00 PM)
The Mountaineers have control of their own destiny in that regard. They still have another opportunity to play Baylor - in Waco _ and trail the Bears by just a game in the standings. W.Va. still has seven games left, starting tonight with Oklahoma. If I had to predict, I'd say the Mountaineers finish second to Baylor, but that should still position them well in the NCAA tournament.
Ellen (Boise, Idaho)
On each elite team in WCBB, it seems there is that one Superstar that when things go bad, can put the team on her back. It seems that Duke lacks this. Liston may be the de facto leader, but she isn't all that athletic. Do we have to wait for Jones to truly make this her team for her to become that superstar?
Mechelle Voepel (3:03 PM)
Chelsea Gray was that person, but with her out, I agree there is kind of a void there. Alexis Jones seemed more confident previously than she does now. Duke has some issues to work through, some mental and some physical.
jbb1985 (under snow, more snow, periscope up)
Do you want to see L'ville have 4 cracks at UConn? Do you want see Duke have 4 shots at ND?
Mechelle Voepel (3:04 PM)
Well ... not really. I think it's more likely we will see Louisville vs. UConn four times, than Duke vs. Notre Dame four times.
Mel (MN)
Thanks for your column on Betty Jaynes. Do you have any memories of her that stand out?
Mechelle Voepel (3:08 PM)
One time many years ago, I called her because I thought the Wade Trophy process was not as comprehensive as it needed to be. And there are a lot of people in her position who might have gotten defensive about that or whatever, but Betty was very nice and really wanted to hear my thoughts. Her ego was never in the way, you might say. She just cared about the sport, and trying to do what was best to help it grow and get more exposure. She really was a friendly person who reached out and listened to everybody. I always admired that about her.
Chuckie Creamer (Joseph Lunar's House)
Does Duke's loss once again remind us that we don't need to get so worked up about projected seedings at this time of year. I mean, two guys have that as part of their job, but it seems like some fans are already ready to bring their torches and pitchforks to the committee and there are so many games to be played before seeds are decided. Can't we all just discuss hypotheticals peacefully?
Mechelle Voepel (3:10 PM)
Yes. :) I couldn't agree more. Bracketology is for fun and discussion, but the bracket experts can only work with the information they have in front of them. Things can be different week to week, let alone what they are like in early January vs. mid-February vs. early March. No pitchforks, please. :)
Mechelle Voepel (3:12 PM)
Thanks for all the questions. I'm sorry I have no updated info on the WNBA's CBA. Let's hope that "soon" really is "soon." Chat with you next week.

Megachurch To Close After Pastor Calls Women "Penis Homes"
"The first thing to know about your penis is, that despite the way it may see, it is not your penis. Ultimately, God created you and it is his penis. You are simply borrowing it for a while.
While His penis is on loan you must admit that it is sort of just hanging out there very lonely as if it needed a home, sort of like a man wondering the streets looking for a house to live in. Knowing that His penis would need a home, God created a woman to be your wife and when you marry her and look down you will notice that your wife is shaped differently than you and makes a very nice home. …
Therefore, if you are single you must remember that your penis is homeless and needs a home. But, though you may believe your hand is shaped like a home, it is not. And, though women other than your wife may look like a home, to rest there would be breaking into another man's home. And, if you look at a man it is quite obvious that what a homeless man does not need is another man without a home."
This brilliant chunk of wisdom comes from the mouth of Pastor Mark Driscoll (never trust a man wearing a beaded choker, I always say) of the Washington-based evangelical church Mars Hill, which recently announced it was shuttering several of its Pacific Northwest locations because of "financial difficulties" related to bad press. Bad press, huh? You mean people take issue with a religious leader referring to roughly 51 percent of the world's population, specifically their vaginas, as "penis homes"? Personally, I would be offended if I didn't find the whole thing so hilarious. Anyway, if a vagina is a penis home, what's an asshole? A ski retreat in Aspen? Is my mouth a house upstate? DISCUSS.

Where is the option for "I went a couple times but it was so pricey it was basically the Merc, but outside."
Lisa Rasor 6 years, 4 months ago
Perhaps, but it depends on what you're buying. It might help to think about some of the benefits of the Farmer's Market:
- Your money goes directly to local farmers, not to some mega-corporation like Monsanto. You can actually get to know the people who will be feeding all of us when the corporate food structure collapses.
- The veggies/fruit/meat you are buying are fresh, healthy, and most often without added chemicals/hormones. You can taste the difference, and you're getting more nutritional bang for your buck.
- The veggies/fruit/meat you are buying have a very small carbon footprint. They were not trucked across the United States, or the Western Hemisphere, but at the most just across the county.
Worth every penny, I say.
dogsandcats 6 years, 4 months ago
Oh, I know. But those are all reasons why the prices of local products should be cheaper. Local farmers don't have to pay corporate CEOs, or buy chemicals, or pay high fuel costs for shipping across the country.
Doesn't every person deserve fresh nutritious food? Or only those who can afford to pay a premium for it?
farmer1 6 years, 4 months ago
I definitely understand not wanting to pay high prices, but I can tell you in all honesty that no farmer at the market is getting rich off of what they sell. You're simply getting products at the true cost of small-scale, locally sourced production. Few, if any, federal subsidies are being paid to those hard working folks.
Lena 6 years, 4 months ago
You can't forget that a lot of our local farmer try using mostly organic ways of growing and oddly enough It's more expense to grow Organic then to use other chemical based fertilizers and pesticides, And yes even on a small scale there are still different applications you must use in order to grow anything. I have a very small veggie garden and in order to keep it from getting fungus or having other problems I have to use different types of applications to prevent this, So they still have chemical/ organic application costs to maintain their crops. Plus when you buy from the farmers market your getting the items super fresh. The food hasn't been setting on a shelf or truck for days or even weeks, the longer they set the more nutrition they lose on top of the nutrition already loss because of the amount of chemicals they have been treated with. To me its worth the few extra dollars I spend at the farmers market to make sure I'm feeding my family with the best possible ingredients I can find. Please don't think the farmers are trying to sell fruits/veggies/and meats to make a lot of profit they don't make much of a profit at all compared to the amount of money it takes to plant/grow/harvest/ and transport. My aunt and uncle are farmers (unfortunately for me they don't live close enough to sell at the Lawrence Farmer's Market) they hardly make enough to keep going, but they keep it up because they know how important it is, and they love feeding their local community. Our Local Farmers need our support.

I have to respond to #2 of your post. Penn and Teller did a BS episode where they set up a stand outside a store and did the "pepsi challenge" with "organic" vegetables and fruit and "regular" vegetables and fruit.
The testers chose by an overwhelming margin the storebought vegetables and fruit for taste and color/consistency. Now I realize that P & T are comedians and out to entertain first and foremost, but I do believe there is some truth to their show and do not feel that storebought fruits and or vegetables are any less healthy or fresh than locally grown produce. You are not getting any more nutritional bang for you buck buying local vs storebought trucked in produce.
I keep a garden in spring/summer and grow a variety of vegetables so I'm not biased towards store bought produce.
KansasPerson 6 years, 4 months ago
Emperor: I'd be interested in knowing more about their "challenge." Were the samples visible to the people eating them, or was it a blindfold test? Very often the organic fruits and vegges are not as cosmetically "perfect" as the store-bought produce, and I would be surprised if the appearance didn't factor into the decisions of the judges. Secondly, where did they hold this challenge? Was it somewhere that the stores just generally had better access to fresh stuff (maybe in California)? Thirdly, I find it hard to believe there wasn't a taste difference between fresh locally-grown stuff and the bred-to-ship-a-long-distance food. I have had the occasional good apple from the grocery store, but they are generally harder-skinned and less juicy than their local orchard counterparts. Lastly, I'd like to know what kinds of fruits/veggies they used in their sample. IMO it would be difficult to find a grocery-store tomato that could measure up to a garden tomato. With some other veggies or fruits, maybe the difference would not be as apparent. I've often felt that the BS guys (and similar shows) are hampered by having preconceived notions which may unconsciously affect their set-ups. You often find what you're looking for if you're not stringent with your research design. As you say, it's all for entertainment, but people remember and quote the results as if they're peer-reviewed studies.

Consumer 1, you are definitely aptly named. (eyeroll)
I, for one, would prefer "dirty fingernails or toes" to food that has been not only handled by who knows what "dirty person", but most importantly is free of the dangerous chemicals found of most stores and hasn't been trucked in from unknown regions.

Does anyone know if the Merc takes a pretty big hit when the farmers market is in season? Just curious.

Disclaimer: I wouldn't be here if X belonged to me.
A/N: Subaru has not been referred to as the Sakurazukamori, seeing as there is little mention of the same in the anime. Feedback is appreciated.
It was dark, forbiddingly dark. It engulfed the surroundings wholly, nothing in probable sight visible. The place felt familiar, evoking vague recollections but nothing that Subaru could put a finger to. He could feel nothing – surely this wasn't a kekkai but it could be an illusion as well.
The sound of footsteps echoed against the space before he could think any further.
"Sumeragi Subaru, isn't it? It's surprising to see you."
Subaru turned around at the addressed words, only to see Fuuma Monou, the former Dragon of Earth... Kamui's counterpart.
The said person was equally startled to see him. So this is the dreamscape. No wonder it felt familiar, so distressingly familiar. As for Fuuma, he found the missing smirk and swagger amiss, before remembering that the Promised Day had undone all the necessities of that role.
That Kamui had sacrificed himself to restore Fuuma to his original self.
Of course he would remember. "It's a pleasure to see you again," he said evenly, waiting for his reaction. Would it be weighed with guilt or would it express relief and joy of being alive once again?
The man brought back memories, memories Subaru did not care to remember.
"It will sound strange, but I would like to... thank you for being there for Kamui. When I could not be."
The frank admission got to Subaru. This was not what he was expecting.
"How do you do it?" he couldn't help but ask. "How do you look past your actions towards Kamui and be so...objective about it?"
"I have not forgotten the days leading up to the Promised Day. I remember what I did to Kamui...Kami knows how I killed my own sister," Fuuma spoke, his voice lowered to a whisper, quivering with untold emotions. "But it was my destiny, as was Kamui's. Either one of us would have died either way. By choosing to repent over the past, I was only forsaking Kamui's sacrifice."
Subaru could only look back at him in astonishment. How could he...?
A part of him felt grateful - Kamui's life did not go in vain. But the other only grieved and mourned for his loss. The two people he held most dear.
A sister who chose to die in order to protect him. A lover who sought to kill, only to be killed. By his own hands.
"I believe it is regret I see in your eyes," Fuuma spoke after a brief silence. Evidently, he had not lost his ability to see past through people or was the remorse etched so clearly in Subaru's expressions?
He didn't want to know.
"Seishirou believed that it was your wish to kill him. I had known even then that it was the opposite. And regretfully, if I may add, none of us could ever gauge his true intention, right upto the moment of his death."
But I had, against all hopes. And I still find it hard to believe. The name still stung dully, stirring awake feelings Subaru had kept buried for long. Feelings which were hard to forget, to obliterate.
"I suppose it had been easier for you to face Kamui, not remembering what he meant to you," Subaru muttered, not intending to be harsh. Nevertheless they had been fortunate, despite Kamui's obvious troubles of dealing with Fuuma and the fate of the world together.
Or had he seen it as one and the same thing, seeking a single answer to all issues?
"In a way, yes," Fuuma acknowledged, "But in a way, our fate was eerily similar to yours and Seishirou's."
There, he said it. The truth Subaru had been unwilling to face. And look where it got them as well. But no, he was wrong, unless Fuma only pretended to be happy, happy without Kamui and Kotori.
"You cannot make everyone happy," he reiterated, wistfully recalling how he had told the same to the Seal. "And Kamui chose your happiness above his."
It was Fuuma's turn to reminisce. "He sought his happiness in my well-being. It is what we all do. You sought yours in all these years. They sought their happiness in wanting you to live."
The onmyouji closed his eyes in quiet remembrance. And so it is.
It doesn't change the past, however. It doesn't bring life to the deceased.
"Similar fates, yes," Subaru finally spoke, looking at Fuuma intensely, a single eye betraying apathy and pain intertwined. "But you have been fortunate, more fortunate than I could ever be. Cherish it."
He briefly placed a hand on Fuma's shoulder as if to reassure and walked away into the looming darkness.

Veteran sportscar racer tabbed for Indianapolis and Road America events
Marsh Racing has announced the addition of Burt Frisselle to the team's No. 31 Whelen Engineering Corvette Daytona Prototype for the next two IMSA TUDOR United SportsCar Championship events at Indianapolis Motor Speedway and Road America in which Frisselle will co-drive with Eric Curran.
Frisselle steps in for full-season Marsh Racing pilot Boris Said (in photo) who is recovering from a practice crash in last week's event held at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park.
"We certainly appreciate Burt stepping in on such short notice," said Team Owner Ted Marsh. "Boris is taking some time to recuperate and needs a couple of weeks out of the car so it's great that Burt was available to join us. He's a quick and experienced guy in these cars and will fit in quickly here. We are working to keep building on every race and having Burt join us will help us continue to move forward with this program."
Frisselle has loads of Daytona Prototype experience having raced the machinery dating back to 2004. He spent the 2013 season racing a Corvette DP for Action Express Racing and drove to a third place podium result at Road America. Frisselle and his brother Brian contest the 2014 North American Endurance Cup for Action Express Racing and are currently second in the standings.
"I hate it for Boris and I wish him the best in his recovery," said Frisselle who celebrated his 100th Daytona Prototype start at Indianapolis last year. "I am very excited to be joining Marsh Racing for the next two rounds of the IMSA TUDOR United SportsCar Championship. I hope to jump in and help make this unexpected driver change as smooth and seamless as possible. I'm thrilled to be back racing at such a historic venue in the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and then one of the best circuits in the United States at Road America. I am grateful that Action Express Racing gave me their blessing to join Marsh Racing for the next two rounds and I'll give Marsh Racing, my co-driver Eric Curran, and the No. 31 Whelen Corvette my absolute best effort!"
The Brickyard Grand Prix event at Indianapolis gets underway on Thursday, July 24 with practice and qualifying. The 2.75-hour race is set for 5:45 PM ET on Friday, July 25 with coverage on FOX Sports 1 beginning at 7:00 PM ET.

Posted 4 years ago
The nightmarish fiscal third quarter saw Blackberry dropping 56 percent in revenue and reporting a $44 billion loss.
Bubbling under, BlackBerry did not make good on trying to find a buyer for the troubled company last month. Several employees in high places have already made the news as being fired from BlackBerry by the new boss, John S. Chen.
The second quarter had a loss of $1 billion as the new line of BlackBerry 10 phones failed to set the world alight, with sales.

Man, 28, gunned down on St. Claude corner
A 28-year-old man was shot dead Thursday night in the St. Claude neighborhood.
The victim's wife was driving him when he was shot about 6:30 p.m. in the 1300 block of Bartholomew Street, said Officer Frank Robertson, a Police Department spokesman.
The victim's identity was not immediately released.
Harahan man booked in beating of lover
A Harahan man grabbed a paddle and whacked his "intimate partner" with it several times in an attack that was apparently self-defense, police said.
When officers responded to a disturbance in the 170 block of Glenwood Drive on Tuesday, they learned that the homeowner, Charles Zito, allegedly tried to stab his lover several times inside the home, Chief Tim Walker said.
During an argument that spilled into the driveway, Zito punctured the tires of his lover's vehicle and stabbed his lover, causing a severe hand injury, Walker said.
After being released from the hospital, Zito was booked with aggravated battery and criminal damage.
Jeff grand jury charges man in rape case
A Jefferson Parish grand jury on Thursday charged Horace Lee Foster, of Metairie, with two counts of sexual battery and one count of aggravated rape of a victim under 13.
Court records indicate Foster, 48, has a home address of 6525 Veterans Memorial Blvd.
He was arrested by Kenner police on Aug. 21 after his alleged victim, now 17, told officers in November 2013 that Foster had raped her in Kenner on several occasions beginning when she was 12.
According to the indictment, Foster allegedly raped the girl on multiple occasions between September 2009 and August 2010, and again on Nov. 9, 2013.
Authorities said at the time of the arrest that Foster told them he could not remember whether he had abused the girl because he was addicted to crack cocaine.
Foster is awaiting trial at Jefferson Parish Correctional Center on $600,000 bail.
The case has been allotted to Judge Ray Steib, of 24th Judicial District Court.
Man sentenced after selling drugs near baby
A New Orleans gang member whose crimes included a drug deal that he apparently video-recorded himself — with a toddler inches away — was sentenced to 12 years in prison Wednesday by a federal judge.
The sentence was handed down against 21-year-old William Henderson.
Henderson pleaded guilty to four counts of conspiracy in connection with a street gang in the Hollygrove neighborhood.
Henderson's cellphone, seized by police after a 2013 arrest, provided a trove of evidence against him.
It included video of a 2012 drug deal that took place in a car. The lens was trained on an unknown buyer as drugs were passed from the front seat to the back. Also in the frame was a small child.
Henderson's brother and co-defendant, Thomas Henderson, also has pleaded guilty to conspiracy charges in the case; he has yet to be sentenced.
"I'm sorry for, you know, participating in what I participated in," said Henderson, who had challenged the characterization of his past brushes with the law during previous hearings.
"I take full responsibility for what I did. I'm sorry to my parents for what I did."
Woman charged with defrauding credit union
Gail Teague is suspected of having defrauded Ochsner Federal Credit Union to the tune of $34,000 over more than a dozen years.
The alleged scheme happened between 2000 and 2013 while she was an employee. She was charged in a bill of information Thursday with defrauding the credit union.
Using the fictitious name "William Morris," Teague, 48, of New Orleans, laundered a loan through a local automobile dealership and the credit union.
She signed a handwritten confession on May 17, 2013.
Gunfire wounds man Thursday in Gretna
A man was shot Thursday night in Gretna, the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office said.

Men suspected in string of robberies hit again
Three men already suspected in a string of robberies in or near the French Quarter are suspected in another.
The latest incident happened about 11:40 p.m. Tuesday at Dauphine and Gov. Nicholls streets, police said.
Two victims were walking in the area when the robbers walked up and demanded their belongings.
One victim handed over his cellphone and wallet, police said. One of the robbers tried to grab the other victim's purse but was unsuccessful.

Prior robberies in which the men are suspected happened:
Dec. 1 in the 1200 block of Bourbon Street: Two victims were robbed of their purses.
Dec. 3 at North Rampart and Mandeville streets: Two victims were robbed of their wallets.
Dec. 4 in the 500 block of Dauphine Street: A woman was hit in the head with a gun when she told the men she had nothing to give them.
Dec. 7 in the 500 block of St. Philip Street: Three victims were robbed.
Anyone with information about the suspects' identities or these crimes is asked to contact 8th District detectives at (504) 658-6080.
Man, 20, arrested after fleeing homicide scene
A 20-year-old man was arrested in New Orleans East on Tuesday after a brief chase.
Two officers were securing the perimeter of an earlier homicide investigation when they saw a man run by with a pistol in his hand.
The officers gave chase on foot and ultimately caught up with Ernest Williams near a home in the 6900 block of Deanne Street.
Williams carried a loaded Glock 9 mm pistol and 23 bags of marijuana, police said.
He was booked with possession of a firearm while in possession of narcotics, being a felon in possession of a firearm, illegal possession of a firearm, flight from an officer and criminal trespassing.
Williams has two prior convictions: one for firearms violations and the other for drug charges.

Once inside the room, the man punched her in the face, took her money and ran away.
N.O. police investigate two armed robberies
New Orleans police on Thursday were investigating the following armed robberies reported on an overnight crime log:
7:15 p.m. Wednesday at South Johnson and Gen. Taylor streets: The victim was approached by two men who searched his pockets and took his cellphone and money.

The Vohrsoth are the products of a long dead civilization ("the Ancient Ones") which may have originated outside the Milky Way Galaxy. The goal of their creation is not known, but they eventually developed a desire for complete domination of the galaxy, by constantly improving themselves through adding the DNA of other species into their genetic code.
The Vohrsoth inhabit a space station known as The Forge, located in an area of space which was filled with the debris of starships. The Forge projected a dampening field that drained the energy of nearby starships, and thereby prevented any warp travel. Ships would be tricked into entering this graveyard by launching a probe that would attack traveling starships. If the starship could not defend itself, the probe would rip the ship apart and transport the raw materials back to the Forge. If, instead, the starship destroyed the probe then the probe's destruction would unleash an energy wave that would transport the victor ship into the graveyard.
These ships, which were crippled by the dampening field in the graveyard, would then be incapable of resisting an attack from the Vohrsoth Harvesters who would kill all the crew and 'harvest' the genetic material for use. This genetic material would then be taken back to the Forge where it was mixed into creating perfect Vohrsoth warriors.
Within the graveyard, there was a Borg cube (that was infested by Species 8472), a Malon waste barge, an Etherian sleeper ship, a Klingon Bird-of-Prey, a Hirogen hunting ship, a Terran Empire warship and the starship USS Voyager.
This would have continued until the Vohrsoth leader was confident that his warriors were perfect, after which he would have unleashed his forces to conquer the galaxy. This plan failed due to the intervention of the Hazard Team from the USS Voyager, who managed to infiltrate the Forge and destroy it both it and the leader of the Vohrsoth.
Before its death, the Vohrsoth leader attempted to launch a 'seed' that would have turned into a new Forge to continue its work, but it was thwarted by a group of Etherians before Ensign Alexander Munro defeated him. The Vohrsoth claimed that they would return from this defeat. The station was then destroyed by Voyager. (VOY video game: Elite Force)
The Vohrsoth are masters of genetics and have managed to develop several different sub-species which contain the best qualities of other races. This resulted in different sub-species of this race:
- Vohrsoth Leader - a massive creature and the guiding intelligence of the Vohrsoth race that strives to conquer the galaxy by the incorporation of the strongest race's genetics into a warrior species. The creature possesses powerful telepathy which it uses to control its army as well as probe the mind of its enemies.
- Vohrsoth Telepaths - perhaps a more recent extension of the warrior, one that is both taller and perhaps possesses qualities from telepathic species. They are capable of unleashing powerful telepathic assaults against their enemies and carry no other weapons. These beings were also known as 'Avatars'.
- Vohrsoth Warriors - a more humanoid shaped insectoid warrior that is the culmination of the strongest 'warrior' species, the Vohrsoth warriors possess strong legs allowing them to leap great distances. They also carry an arm mounted energy weapon. These beings were also known as 'Reavers'.
- Vohrsoth Harvesters - the smallest of the species, the Harvesters embrace a more insectoid physiology and are almost animalistic, yet are guided with the purpose of gathering the genetic material of the strongest races by brutally killing them. They operate by swarming their enemies and using their claws as weapons.
- A similar plotline is present in the comic Elite Force except the race is called the Tarlus.

I forgot the oil in my apple cake.
3 c flour
2 c sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
salt, cinnamon, vanilla, etc...
1/3 c apple juice
4 cups chopped apples
1/2 c each raisins and walnuts
Supposed to have 1 cup of oil.
It took the usual amount of time to bake and looks normal. But is for a customer so I can't cut it. What do you think?
I wouldn't think so. There is plenty of liquid in there. Do you have to level it? That should tell you. Good luck.
Well, I delivered it as is and am holding my breath. It is for a repeat customer and was due at 9:00 this morning, so I didn't have time to do it over. (That's what I get for not doing it the day before.) If she calls with a complaint I'll happily refund her money or redo it. At least I call it a coffeecake so maybe they'll think it's supposed to be that way. I also did a lemon layer cake and that one was fine, so maybe it will be o.k.

Why the Bills Need to Make a Trade for J.J. Watt [VIDEO]
If you follow football at all, then you've seen JJ Watt. He's one of the most dominating players in the NFL. He's gotten a ton of sacks and tackles, heck he's even scored touchdowns and extra points for the Texans. But let's be honest, the Bills need a quarterback. Now he's making a push to be the best player at every position.

I have a friend who has the rare dilemma of choosing between two great job opportunities: one would divert his career path but put him closer to family; the other is a "dream" job that is considerably further away from family.
Career vs. Family -- Does the phrase suggest an ambitious woman deciding whether to have children or go for more job responsibility? Does it make you think of the woman who must choose between putting her kids in daycare or going the stay-at-home route?
I am thinking of neither of those scenarios. This is about the 20- and 30-somethings who have to choose between living close to their parents, siblings, nieces, nephews, friends -- or moving farther away and facing isolation from the people they care about.
I know I feel a lot of guilt for living 12-hours away from my family. A few days ago a friend asked me how often I visit Atmore and I said, sadfaced, "Only a few times a year." He laughed and said "ONLY? That's a lot!" There are those independent people who are content to only see their families at one major holiday a year. I am not one of those people for so many reasons. As I said I have guilt for being away from family and friends, but we are here for Nick's career. And our future hometowns will likely all be chosen for Nick's jobs. I will try to guide those choices, but opportunities will arise where they will. To live in Atmore, I wouldn't have to choose a different career, I'd have to choose a different life, with one less husband.
This is another one of those conundrums faced by the overprivileged with opportunity ("Oppies," to coin a new word): do we follow that awesome ambition, or do we stick close to our loving and supportive families? It's an embarrassment of riches. One that I have time to contemplate because I don't have any "real" problems.
We know for a few decades, women have been choosing between career and children, or trying to have both. And we Oppies are choosing between our far-flung ambitions and our families back at home. You could even distill that down and say our choice is between work and home. Choose work and you're not going to your niece's Thanksgiving pageant, but you'll go with her to breakfast with Santa when you visit at Christmas. You'll find out your mom went to the emergency room three days after the fact because you talk to her twice a week instead of seeing her every day.
You sometimes wish you could give up every other part of yourself just to be the daughter/son/aunt/uncle who is there everyday for trips to the park, but that would mean... giving up every other part of yourself. If everything that makes me happy is a piece of pie, I have a whole pie -- one slice is just in a different state. My metaphors are starting to drift. What I'd really like to know is whether the Baby Boomers faced this same sort of choice and which choice ended up being better in the long run.
Anyway, there are two things I know I will not stop hearing as long as I'm away from home, making this life: (1) "we're so proud of you" and (2) "we miss you -- when are you coming to visit?"

Well, I know you all will be really shocked looking at the title. But, yes our country is India is to be renamed as Bharat was a petition filed the Supreme Court and however, rejected the plea and asked the petitioner to go to the conserned officials instead to the court. The Chief Justice H.L. Dattu asked the petitioner to make a good representation in the authority in power. The Court told that the petitioner can be approached after making representation and getting any positive votes for the plea.
"You (the petitioner) can come to us only after the authorities have responded to your representation or choose not to response," the court said. After that the court has confirmed that plea is withdrawn. So, this man really shocked the country once for all. This kind of petition may be for the first time. Howvever, what do you think about it? Do we need to change our country's name? Is it required? Post your comments below!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: The Occupation of the former HQ of Camelot Property Guardians continues.
The offices at 20 Westland Place were squatted last week, and remain so, much to the embarassment of Camelot. They are a security company which specialises in offering "property guardian" services, but failed to secure their own building after moving their office to another address. It is hoped that the occupation will help to highlight the issues around property guardianship, and the rise in this new, precarious form of housing, first introduced to the UK by Camelot themselves, who started life in the Netherlands as an "anti-kraak" (anti-squat) company.
When Camelot heard about the occupation, their reaction was heavy-handed. Their agent informed the occupiers that rather than go to court to secure their eviction (the normal process for dealing with squatters) he would use "other methods". It became apparent that by this he meant violent methods. Camelot security guards attempted to besiege the occupiers, and starve them out. They then turned their physical force and aggression on the many people who turned up outside to support the occupation. The siege situation went on for three days and nights. Camelot at one point had over thirty guards and three security dog units outside the building. Eventually the police advised them that yes, they would have to seek possession via the court, and they backed down.
Having received a lot of negative publicity about their treatment of the homeless people occupying the building, Camelot Spin Doctors then put out the story that they would allow the occupiers to stay with some kind of licence, or permission for an art space. And invited some of the media along to witness a meeting with the occupiers on Monday 3rd. What they didn't make clear to the media was that this would only happen if the occupiers agreed to a number of restrictions. The first would have been to remove any displays of information about the issues of homelessness and property guardianship, the reasons for occupying this office in the first place. The others were the same restrictions that Camelot places on all of their property guardians – about no one allowed to stay overnight, about having no more than two visitors at a time, about smoking, about pets – and again, something else that this occupation aims to highlight.
Camelot and the other property guardian companies make a lot of money out of people who have limited housing options. They effectively work for Camelot, but pay for the privilege of doing so. Property guardians in London are currently charged a fee of up to £750 a month for a room in a building that may not have many facilities, and a very precarious existence. Property guardians are often told to leave with very little notice (less time than the law requires). Camelot don't guarantee that they'll assign them to another building when that happens. People pay a deposit (of between £500-1000) to the property guardian company, but often encounter problems when it comes to getting it back.
Property guardian companies describe what they offer as "affordable" housing. Councils and other big landlords in routinely try to tell us that "affordable" can mean as high as 80% of "market rent". Most of us know what a joke that is. Needless to say, no meeting will go ahead this Monday. There is no way the squatters can envisage doing a deal with a company like this. There are thousands of empty buildings in this country, more than would be needed to house the many people who are homeless. Many of them are left empty deliberately, for example by property speculators who know they will profit from rising property prices whether or not the building is used. What is needed is a way for communities to challenge those owners, requisition buildings and put them to use, a traditional function of squatting.
No wonder Camelot and other guardian companies have been at the forefront of the campaign to further criminalise squatting. For every otherwise-empty building that they take on, they generate a steady flow of income for themselves, at the direct expense of the guardians and the indirect expense of the rest of us. Guardian companies have taken properties from short-life housing co-ops, which, while they might have had their own problems, have successfully housed many people over the decades, and often led to more secure housing.
A spokesperson from SQUASH (Squatters Action for Secure Homes) said:
"Property Guardian companies are exploitative enterprises, opportunists preying on the scandal of thousands of empty buildings, fear of squatters, and housing desperation.
Their business model relies on stripping their residents/"workers" of their tenancy rights, getting taxpayer subsidy through government contracts and lack of regulation, and using any means to make a quick buck.
The Camesquat occupation is highlighting the issue by squatting Camelot's old headquarters. Licencees are unfairly treated, and we encourage people to take up squatting instead of property guardianship. We also demand a repeal of section 144 LASPOA (2012), which is currently unjustly criminalising and imprisoning the vulnerably housed."
The occupation has done a lot of what it set out to achieve, to raise concerns and generate public discussion about the role of property guardian companies, and the housing crisis. There are seven key points:
- Londoners being priced out of London – the need for rent controls and truly affordable rent levels
- The housing crisis and solutions to it
- The way property guardians are treated and their legal rights denied
- The criminalisation of residential squatting, and the impacts this had had (a near-doubling of street homelessness) NB non residential squatting is not illegal
- The ongoing loss of community/ arts/ culture space in London
- Making good use of the 1.5 million empty buildings in the UK
- The loss of council housing – which includes 79 different estate demolition schemes in London alone – and its replacement by luxury and privately-owned flats.

"BoardDocs has completely changed the way we do business. No more printing numerous agendas containing hundreds of sheets of paper and wasting staff time having to find old agendas or looking things up. It's now at everyone's fingertips, 24/7."
– Teresa Johnson
Board Secretary, Mid-Continent Public Library, MO
Emerald Data Solutions has provided technology solutions since 1989. In the late 1990's, the Company had the foresight to move from providing project based, IT solutions to a then-radical, SAAS model. This strategic change led to the development of BoardDocs®, a revolutionary board management (paperless meeting) solution, first developed in 2000. Currently, the Company is is exclusively dedicated to the development and delivery of its fifth-generation, community-defined BoardDocs services.
Of special note, Emerald Data Solutions has been 100% virtual since 2005. At that time, the move from a traditional workplace to a cloud-based footprint where all employees work from home was groundbreaking. As evidenced by the Company's continued growth, this operational model has proven remarkably successful and now serves as an example that other companies often emulate.
Our current staff includes former technology directors, former board clerks, former Fortune 500 executive trainers, top developers and certified support analysts. We have trained thousands of board members and administrators, so we understand how governing bodies operate and how board meeting materials are created, managed and distributed.

Has someone seen this before?
I P2V (cold conversion using the Enterprise disk) a Windows 2008 SP2 domain controller to a standalone ESXi host and under FRS logs it showed the following:
Utterly retarded...I fixed it but what the heck happened?
7 Replies
Apr 27, 2010 at 3:41 UTC
I don't know but it sounds similar to what happened to me when I lost my SAN last week. I had a domain controller on it (Server 2003) and when I restored it I had FRS problems with the main domain controller saying the two were basically out of synch because of an improper domain restore. The primary domain controller with all the FSMO roles then proceeded to ignore the restored controller. I had to do a forced dcpromo and then repair AD. Sounds like you had a similar event perhaps? I need to read up on keeping and restoring domain controllers in VMWare...
Apr 27, 2010 at 3:47 UTC
I didn't have to do all that, I just had to create the file the event log says.
Replication is fine, crap I thought I had updated domain replication to 2008 level...
I have to go back to my notes to do the FRS to DFS upgrade...
Apr 27, 2010 at 3:58 UTC
Windows never actually uses "C:" as the drive, instead it uses a SID. When you P2V'd the SID must have changed and kinda confused the little guy...
Apr 27, 2010 at 4:02 UTC
Nope, didn't check the SID change option. If the SID had changed all hell would be unleashed!
I guess this is one of "those things"...
Apr 27, 2010 at 4:29 UTC
I don't mean the machine SID, I mean the hard drive SID (just about everything in Windows has one... GUID is prolly a better term, but whatever :)
May 5, 2010 at 2:46 UTC
I just used Converter to move a domain controller from one host to another and had the exact same issue so it's not just P 2 V. Putting in the file as the error says to do does fix the problem. I ran across another thread that said perhaps we would have needed to fix the volume id to match the original. Here's a utility to do just that:
May 13, 2010 at 8:09 UTC
When would you run it though?
You would have to P2V then use a WinPe boot disk and run it from there.
My guess...
This discussion has been inactive for over a year.
You may get a better answer to your question by starting a new discussion.

Steenbergs Arrowroot is a dry white powder of almost pure natural starch. Arrowroot is a neutral tasting and inodorous powder and used as a thickening agent for gravies, casseroles and jellies. It thickens at a lower temperature than flour or cornstarch to a perfect gel and is less likely to become sour during digestion than farinaceous foods, so is good for the sick and delicate.
Arrowroot is easy to use as a thickening agent - simply put a teaspoon into a bowl or mug and add a little water to make a paste - then add a spoon of the sauce you wish to thicken, mix it up and pour all the contents of the mug / bowl into the sauce. Arrowroot adds a lovely sheen to the sauce as well as being less prevalent to lumping up. To switch from a gluten diet to one of arrowroot, substitute one teaspoon of arrowroot for one tablespoon of wheat flour, or two teaspoons of arrowroot for one tablespoon of cornstarch.

|2017 Annual Conference
Share |
Ladies and Gentlemen,
The Continuing Medical Education Committee has started our planning for the 18th Annual Conference of the Physician Assistants in Orthopaedic Surgery (PAOS). As the Chairman, I'm excited to bring the conference to my hometown of Baltimore! We have signed the contract with the Hilton - Baltimore and will be holding the conference from August 21st - 25th, 2017. The Hilton-Baltimore overlooks Camden Yards and is nestled in the middle of Inner Harbor. It's in walking distance to all that Baltimore has to offer, to include the National Aquarium, Fort McHenry, Horseshoe Casino, Power Plant, Little Italy, and all the Sports Complexes. We are planning social events that will show you all that the town has to offer!
Baltimore is a city rich with culture, history, athletics, and has continually been an epicenter of research and development for medicine and Orthopaedics. Our committee is working diligently recruiting quality speakers from well known institutions such as Johns Hopkins, Baltimore Shock Trauma, and other orthopaedic groups supporting the professional and college athletic programs. We anticipate the same high-quality speaker lineup that we saw last year in Scottsdale, Arizona.
With our conference's proven reputation and quality education, we hope you will join us for what is expected to be another memorable event. I look forward to showing you my hometown and providing you another educational and entertaining CME Conference. We'll see you in Baltimore!!!

And the new sorting API is in line with the new Collector API! You have a setNextReader() method, where you e.g. load the FieldCache for the next segment and provide the compare functions, also you can get the scorer. My question: What is so hard to use this API? OK its more work when implementing the Comparator, but it is more intuitive for me if you think in terms of per-segment searches. For new users only the bottom comparison and so on is strange, the other is straightforward. I do not know how this flexibility can be implemented with the old API (scorer, reader switch)? If we want to switch back to a more simplier API, we should not switch back to the strange old one (I never understood it completely, the new one I understand)! Maybe we can provide an easy-to-use default implementation for Comparables in addition to custom sort, which may help lots of people that used Comparables with the old API. This impl may be slower and more memory intensive than directly implementing the new API, but may help.

created us to be? How do we yield everything to God's will?
We fast not by diet but by faith.
