I didn't want to provoke a flame war, but since the article he cited (which I read with interest) mentioned that we'd worked on Smartsuite, make a suggestion that he could use his background to improve Open Office and make it more usable. Perhaps I'll explain what I have in mind. In Approach, I can, just as in Base, be in Browse mode or Design mode. I can display records in Forms or Worksheets, dealing with them in either mode, in the former I look at records individually, in the latter in bulk. In either view I can add or delete a record, and I can print as required, and I can design any of them to display whatever fields I am interested in. I can also create reports, showing whatever fields I want, from whatever underlying database [in DBase format] I am working with, provided I have first joined them on suitable common fields. I can also search in any Worksheet or Form for all records with particular values of any field of interest. I suppose the Base equivalent of a worksheet is a table? But in Base what is a form, and what exactly is a Query? I assume that a Table is the equivalent of a Worksheet, but in my experiments with Base, the Forms look like Worksheets to me, but also to Reports. What exactly is a query, or is it an elaborate way of doing a search? I need some kind of orienting help, and maybe the website Dan mentioned could be it. The help files need to start back at the beginning and explain things. A further feature of Smartsuite that I found very helpful when I was feeling my way with it was the close integration of Approach with 123, which made setting up Approach databases relative easy. I had come to it like many others with an Amstrad and the LocoFile flat file database that went with LocoScript, the programme that ran on them, and which I continued to use when I first went over to a PC in the early 90s.

text: Hi All In the past few weeks I have noticed that the average mpg of our car has dropped from 39 mpg to between 26 & 29 mpg..... surely there is something wrong. The temp gauge in the car does not work or get up to temperature fully so am guessing I need a temp sender ( This has been like this since I bought the car in January, have never got round to replacing it) And the heater in the car only gets warm and not hot Could any of the above contribute to the mpg issues or should I be looking for something else. Any help would be greatly appreciated

You bought your Eclipse because its fuel efficiency and long-lasting quality appealed to your senses; so why would you settle for second best when it comes to great quality auto parts? Make no mistake, you bought your Eclipse because you understood you would be getting agressive styling and driver satisfaction both impeccably combined into one car, truck, or SUV. When your Mitsubishi Eclipse was born, it was destined for a person with discerning taste who values economical pricing in their automobile. While it's not hard to find replacement parts for Mitsubishi vehicles, these days the necessity for nothing but the highest quality are required to repair your automobile.
Keeping the interiors of our cars and trucks cool and comfortable has been possible since HVAC was pioneered around 70 years ago. On your Mitsubishi Eclipse, this would not be possible without the A/C compressor. The air conditioning uses a refrigerant called R134a to fuel a thermal reaction that emits cold air, and the Mitsubishi Eclipse A/C compressor, as the name would suggest, compresses this refrigerant into a dense liquid. After that it goes to an expansion valve that turns it into a gas so it can flow through the evaporator. That cools it so it can emit cold air. Without the A/C compressor, you would not be able to cool your vehicle on hot days.
Buy all the car parts you will ever need from carpartsdiscount.com and realize incredible savings on all your upcoming repairs. Get your Eclipse back on the road with the best new or rebuilt parts from the experts at Car Parts Discount. Don't let a broken A/C Compressor spell the end of your car, truck, or SUV, and don't risk lowering its resale value by buying anything but the highest quality replacement parts. Mitsubishi Eclipse A/C Compressor parts for 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008, 2007, 2006, 2005, 2004, 2003, 2002, 2001, 2000, 1999, 1998, 1997, 1996, 1995, 1994, 1993, 1992, 1991, 1990 vehicles are available here... just click your year to find them.

It sounds like the problem is well-enough defined at this point.
I think the next thing you should do is to open a new JIRA issue
in the Derby JIRA system to track this work. In your JIRA, you
can describe the problem, how you propose to fix it, and include
a reference to this email thread in the mailing list archives.
Then, once you have coded the solution and are satisfied that it
is working, you can attach your proposed changes to the JIRA as

The SOFTAIL® DELUXE comes in 6 colours.
Click on the tins to view the colour.
Get an eyeful of a Softail® motorcycle and you see more than some weepy-eyed exercise in nostalgia. You're looking at the kind of style that has the power to defy time. Honest. Uncluttered. Unaffected by the fad of the moment. There's a good reason for this. We've used our long decades on the road, riding, wrenching, talking to other custom bike fanatics, to discover what works. Then we stick with it, and use it to push the boundaries of motorcycle design ever further. Take a look at the horseshoe oil tank adorning our Softail® models. It's the same one you'd see on a restored dresser from the '50s, or a radical Panhead chopper from the '70s. And you'll find it right now on future Harley-Davidson® models that still on the drawing board. Other companies may be content to imitate bits and pieces from our long history. On a Softail® motorcycle every part down to the axle nut cover comes from an authentic tradition. With a genuine reason for looking the way it looks.
The air-cooled 45 ° V-Twin engine at the heart of every Softail model is a prime example of what makes a Harley-Davidson® motorcycle more satisfying than anything else. Its clean, uncluttered shape fits perfectly in the downtubes of the frame. Twist the throttle and the surge of torque hits you exactly where it counts. The knowledge of what makes an engine truly move a rider runs deep at The Motor Company, and it's been put to particular good use to power the Softail® family. We counterbalance the engine, which means we can bolt it directly to the frame. It keeps the styling tight at the centre of the bike. It lets the rider feel the pulse of the V-Twin. With the High Output Twin Cam 103B ™ engine, there aren't any vibrations rattling the fillings out of your teeth. More power is always a Harley-Davidson® tradition.
The authentic look of a Softail® motorcycle comes from the days before anyone knew much about building a suspension. The rigid hardtail frames of yesteryear had a pure, uncluttered look that riders still love. But the bone-rattling ride meant your grandpa needed to strap on a kidney belt to keep his internals intact. The Softail® family uses modern technology to consign the kidney belt to the museum. We've kept all the modern comforts where they belong-below the surface of a rad bike loaded with authentic style. You get the classic lines of a vintage "hardtail" frame with the horizontal rear shocks hidden in the guts. It's a signature rigid look, and you'll only find it on a Softail model.

I don't know how to spend my extra 20 seconds if it's not on baseball.
Just saw the Royals backup catcher Drew Butera take out Salvy's legs on a plate collision in this Italy vs Venezuela game. And Salvy can't walk under his own power. Pretty ridiculous set of circumstances. This entire WBC is crazy.
Butera ran through the stop sign to take out Perez for fuck's sake.
Drew Butera wants that playing time He's going to be so hated in that locker room.
Currently Playing:
Cosmic Star Heroine(PS4), Rocket League(PS4), Steins;Gate 0(PS4)
Salvy is fortunately ok.

A former top CIA official has accused Russian President Vladimir Putin of recruiting US Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump as an "unwitting agent" of Moscow.
In an article published by the New York Times on Friday, former CIA acting director Michael Morell endorsed Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton for president and called Trump unqualified and a threat to America's national security.
Morell, who worked under Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama, said he had voted for both Republicans and Democrats in the past, but decided to end his silence over his political preferences because he considered Trump as a threat to national security.
"Mr. Putin played upon Mr. Trump's vulnerabilities by complimenting him. He responded just as Mr. Putin had calculated," Morell wrote.
The CIA official then censured Trump for praising the Russian leader.
"Mr. Putin is a great leader, Mr. Trump says, ignoring that he has killed and jailed journalists and political opponents, has invaded two of his neighbors and is driving his economy to ruin," Morell wrote.
He accused Trump of adopting policy positions "consistent with Russian, not American, interests — endorsing Russian espionage against the United States, supporting Russia's annexation of Crimea and giving a green light to a possible Russian invasion of the Baltic States."
"In the intelligence business, we would say that Mr. Putin had recruited Mr. Trump as an unwitting agent of the Russian Federation," Morell wrote.
Morell went on to say that America "will be much safer with Hillary Clinton as president."
He said the former secretary of state would keep "our nation safe," and that she found her to be "prepared, detail-oriented ad thoughtful" when working with her in the past.
A new poll shows that Clinton has taken a 15-percentage point lead over Trump in the run-up to the 2016 US presidential race.
According to the McClatchy-Marist survey released on Thursday, she has 48 percent of the votes as compared to the New York billionaire businessman having only a 33-percent support.

Glendale (California), July 27: If you thought Mickey Mouse was already ubiquitous, you aint seen nothing yet.
The sainted and globally famous trademark of the Walt Disney Company is about to become the centerpiece of a movie, retail, publishing, video, and television campaign aimed at amplifying its marketplace presence.
This year is Mickeys 75th birthday, and the Disney brass is determined not to let the cheerful geriatric rodent fade from public consciousness, the victim of company marketers too afraid to exercise the mouses branding power for fear of cheapening Walt Disneys most important creation.
Last Wednesday at a theater in this Los Angles suburb, Disney chairman Michael Eisner led a parade of company executives in an rally of hundreds of employees to reinforce that message.
Mickey is from and of every country around the world, said Deborah Dugan, president of Disney publishing. Bugs Bunny wishes he could say that, she added, referring to the Warner Bros. character.
Beginning this fall, Gemstone Publishing will reintroduce Disney comic books featuring Mickey and his pals, hoping to tap into the robust comic-book sector, which spawned and capitalized on the movie success of Batman, Spider-Man and The Incredible Hulk.
Disney has also launched a retro-Mickey retail blitz by selling the famous Mickey T-shirts, which have in the past two years become hip, worn by such celebrities as rocker Lenny Kravitz and style-maker Sarah Jessica Parker in the HBO comedy, Sex in the City.
Roger Wyett, executive vice president of Disneys global apparel, noted that Parker wore a Mickey T-shirt on a recent episode of Sex in the City and by the following Tuesday, the ultra-chic Fred Segal Hollywood clothing boutique had already sold 60 of the T-shirts - at $43 each.
We timed it (Parker) was onscreen with the T-shirt for four minutes, Wyett said.
In other words, it was dream marketing for Mickey.
Disneys consumer products division has been flagging since the decline of the character apparel trend in the mid-90s.
Warner Bros. has felt the same pinch on its character wear.
In the second quarter this year, revenue for the consumer products division was $500 million, down 14 per cent from the second quarter of 2002.
Much of the drag comes from soft sales at North Americas 387 Disney stores, down from 522.
Disney sold its stores in Japan last year and said in May that it would also sell its North American and European stores to a retailer practiced in running stores.
At the same time, Disney has turned to alternative ways of marketing its products.
Nina Jacobson, president of Disneys Buena Vista Motion Pictures Group, was asked to hand out Mickey T-shirts to movie stars who visited her office with the hope that they would wear them and, be photographed, of course.
She gave them to Sharon Stone, Jodie Foster and Freddie Prinze Jr., among others.
Disney is engaging in guerrilla marketing elsewhere in its home city.
Disney enlisted a graffiti artist to render classic black-and-white Mickey comic strips on the sides of buildings on chic Sunset Boulevard and Melrose Avenue with permission, of course.
Mickeys muscling-up is largely the work of Andrew Mooney, head of Disney consumer products.
When he arrived four years ago, he found Mickey bound by ancient and Byzantine strictures determining how he could appear and in what form.
Mickey was something of a sacred figure, and many in the company feared blaspheming him by putting him on too many products.
Mooney, an early employee of Nike, realized that Mickey was Disneys swoosh the equivalent of the logo on Nike shoes. At the same time, Mooney sought to preserve the aging mouses dignity, employing him judiciously.
For example, in November, dozens of Mickey statues, painted in various motifs, will debut in Disney World.
They will later tour the country.
More Mickey-intensive efforts will roll out over the next three years, including The Three Musketeers, a straight-to-video movie scheduled to be released in August 2004.
In fall of next year, Disney comic strips featuring Mickey will appear in newspapers.
But its likely that nothing will spread Mickeys mouse-face as widely as a three-year US postal service commemorative stamp programme that is to begin next year.
The stamp designs will debut at Walt Disney World in October.

Privacy Protection: Progress, Of Sorts Reasonable minds can argue over the specifics in these bills, and they should. But whatever passes, and I do hope that happens soon, at least those bills form some sort of basis for nailing thieves and for holding accountable the companies that are the repositories of our most sensitive data. It also speaks to a beginning of a public policy of sorts.
Next Version of Google Talk Leaked Screenshots and installation software for a major upgrade version of Google's instant messaging application, Google Talk, have apparently been leaked online. The new Google Talk appears to have "themes," color schemes and so on for how conversations look, and the equivalent of what rival AOL Instant Messenger calles "Buddy Icons." Here's a look at the screenshots.
Ethics Aren't Just For The Classroom My colleague Paul McDougall has been taking quite a beating in the comments section of the InformationWeek Weblog for suggesting that it's a bad idea for executives to take massive gifts from vendors bidding on company business. Paul is making the crazy, wild-eyed assertion that bribery is, perhaps, ethically speaking, the nonoptimal solution. You might even say it's wrong.
The Nerdy Way To Better Health As junk food, alcohol, cigarettes, prescription drugs and inactivity increasingly take their toll on our health, people are looking for ways to get healthy. Of course, there's no getting around the need to consume fewer toxic substances and excercise more. The good news is that you can employ gadgets and computers to help you out -- and make getting healthy easier and more fun.

Globalization, Or Sailed Ships And Election-Year Politics The car's left the driveway on the globalization of IT, but the United States apparently still thinks it has the keys. International deals of all sizes have been coming under increasing scrutiny over supposed security questions, and the atmosphere doesn't seem to be getting better anytime soon. Well, at least until after November.

It Takes An Indian Village To Buy An Intel Laptop Intel Corp. has dropped the other shoe in its defense of its laptop processor business against whatever threat Nicholas Negroponte's One-Laptop-Per-Child project poses. In December Intel Chairman Craig Barrett bad-mouthed the $100 laptop Negroponte, founder of MIT's Media Lab, plans to distribute in Third World countries, and earlier this month Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates, the other half of the "Wintel" combine, did the same thing. Even though he dismissed Negroponte's design as "the $100 g
Big IT Takes Step To Influence Tech Policy In U.S. Influencing public policy in Washington and throughout the country requires more than hiring K Street lobbyists to push a legislative agenda. Look at the success of the modern conservative movement in shaping public policy. Its roots date back to 1973 with the founding of the think tank, The Heritage Foundation. Big IT vendors are tearing a page out of the right-wing playbook by establishing their own think tank.

Dell and Alienware: A Mismatch Made In Heaven? I've been trying to think of apt similes for "Dell Buys Alienware." It's like "Kia Buys Ferrari," or "J.

Dell's been going through a bad patch and could use a shot of good PR, but is being laughed at the kind of PR it really wanted?
'V For Vendetta' Phone Coming To U.S.? In the film "V For Vendetta," all the movie's office yuppies carried identical cell phones -- a sweet black and very thin rectangular gadget that (like all technology in the movie, including old-school Dell PCs) seemed oddly primitive for the year 2020, but that would nevertheless be a very cool phone to have now.

The topics covered won't surprise anyone, although the proposed remedies might.

Tech History Made Yesterday Most of the Big Events in technology history appear big only in retrospect. For example, for technology historians the day Google.com first came online (September 15, 1997) is obviously a historic milestone.

So remember the date March 14, 2006.

This happens to me every time I am in a relationship: me and the guy do great for the first month or so but then on MY end the passion dies off and I get bored of the relationship :(
Currently, I'm going out with this really sweet guy who I was friends with for awhile before we started dating. While we were friends, we'd flirt like crazy and hang out all the time, it was kind of like dating but we never labelled it. Then he took the step and asked me to be his girl.
I was hesitant because I didn't want to go through the passionless thing with him. But I said yes because I really do like him! However, now I'm kind of experiencing what I did with the other guys I dated. I don't want to break up with him :(((
But I need to do something to make our relationship exciting again.
Most Helpful Guy
It's absolutely normal to have that first period of strong feelings for someone and it's also absolutely normal that it dies after a few months. When it does, THEN only, can start real love for a person. Passion is not love.
If you can't live without this passion, then I guess you'll never be in a long term relationship. Of course people who have been married for awhile are trying to renew that passion however they can sometimes. But in the overall they are used to each other and this "routine" is normal. They don't break up just for that. Otherwise no one would get into long term relationships and no one would have kids and family...
Rejecting the boredom of routine and breaking up with a guy just because of that, really makes you look like one hell of a illusioned self centered b*tch. And eventually you will undeniably end up alone once your youth and beauty fades away around 40 years old...
I suggest you start figuring how to keep things interesting between you and him, while at the same time accepting that it can't be exactly like it was at the beginning. Talk to him about the problem and figure out a solution together.
I'm scared to talk to him because I don't want him to think I don't like him anymore, because I do! I just feel like our relationship is getting kind of stale and I don't want that to happen :/
I'm not going to break up with him though. Unlike the other few guys I dated, I feel something different with him that I can't explain. Maybe its the fact that we were close friends before we actually decided to get into a relationship? Whatever the reason, I can't see myself without him.
just tell him. Don't say it's stale. Just encourage him to do small things here and there to keep things spiced up. Do it yourself as well sometimes if you can, take initiatives.
Ask your parents how they did maintain the flame...

Paris Hilton Caught Photoshopping Her Social Media Photos
Apparently Paris Hilton thinks she's a big fat pig, and feels the need to photoshop her social media photos. Paris posted photos to her Instagram and Twitter accounts from her trip to Ibiza, that are obviously photoshopped to make the super-skinny socialite appear even thinner.
In the photo that Paris posted to her Instagram page, she is posing on her balcony in Ibiza, wearing a white daisy bikini and a pair of heart-shaped sunglasses. She's also rocking an impossibly small waist, that looks suspiciously photoshopped. When compared to candid photos of Paris from the dame day, and wearing the same bikini, it's totally obvious that she photoshopped the picture that she posted to Instagram.
But Paris didn't stop there! She posted another photo to her Twitter account that is also poorly Photoshopped. In the photo that Paris posted to Twitter, she is wearing the same bikini, but decided to strike a different pose for her Twitter followers. In the Twitter photo, Paris again pushed in her waistline with the help of a Photoshop app, but she failed to see where the pole she was leaning against became bowed and distorted, which is a common rookie Photoshop mistake…
Paris certainly isn't the first celebrity to use Photoshop on their social media photos, and the 33-year old socialite is simply following in the Photoshopped footsteps of fellow rabid attention whores like Kim Kardashian and Aubrey O'day. Clearly, the employment advertisement for Paris Hilton's next assistant will include, "Photoshop experience required"…

When car service Uber officially launched in Mexico City in August 2013, skeptics rolled their eyes. Was this yet another example of an American company eagerly extending its tentacles south of the border to edge out local business and profit from Mexico's nouveau riche? Would the service even work in the capital, a city beset by myriad traffic woes?
"We're finally giving this city the transportation system that it deserves," the company crowed in a blog post announcing the launch. And a year later, their claim seems to be validated: Uber is working. In fact, it's working far better than anyone ever expected, and its success is a win for everyone involved.
Am I in the right place?
After landing at Benito Juárez International Airport and clearing immigration and customs, I find a WiFi hotspot and request a car from Uber. The driver, Rafael García, arrives within one minute, his VW Jetta polished to a glossy black sheen. I know his name because it — along with the make and model of his car and its license plate data — pops up on my iPhone.
García steps out of the car, puts my bag in the trunk, and opens my door, showing me a bottle of water I'm welcome to drink if I'm thirsty.
Do I need to charge my phone? What's the model? García has a variety of chargers in the glove compartment and produces one for my iPhone 5. Do I want to read the newspaper? There are fresh copies of Reforma, Excelsior, and El Universal in the seatback pocket in front of me.
Did I land in the right city?
Usually, I take a radio taxi from the airport. Drivers are courteous enough and the cars are generally in better condition than street-hail taxis, which I take when I'm in the city proper, but this is an entirely different experience.
I'll have to pay handsomely for this privileged treatment, though, right? No. After García drops me off at my destination, Uber sends the receipt for the ride to my phone. The total? 227 pesos, or about US$18, which is fairly competitive.
"It's about making a better living"
García, who was a taxi driver before Uber launched here, says working for the car service has been a blessing for him. "It's about making a better living," he says. "I make much more money now."
His story is echoed by every other Uber driver I talk to in the capital, from one who has been on the job for just a day to one who has worked for the company since its launch. I even meet a journalist-turned-Uber-driver who says that his reporter's salary wasn't paying the bills. Though a bit nervous about making the career switch, he has been happy with his take-home earnings.
García and his fellow Uber drivers also say they are safer.
"For drivers, Uber is fabulous," says Pedro, another Uber driver, who asks that I not use his last name. "Especially since we don't have to deal with cash. Here, you know, someone will kill you for 100 pesos. But with Uber, everything is transacted automatically with a credit card — no cash. You want my car? Take it. It's insured."
The fact that cash never changes hands benefits customers, too. How many times have I taken a taxi in Mexico City and handed the driver a 100-peso — or even 50-peso — note, only to be told that he has no change?
There are other reasons both drivers and clients have flocked to Uber, such as the fact that Uber drivers are screened thoroughly before they ever put their hands on the wheel. García rattled off a laundry list of qualifications and tests he had to take before he was brought on board as an Uber driver: a drug screening, criminal background check, and a battery of psychological exams, as well as extensive quizzing about the city's layout and landmarks.
This multi-step verification process ensures riders' safety in a way that the city's own taxi system does not. Despite certificates with drivers' names posted on taxi windows, it is impossible to really know whether a street-hailed taxi driver is legit. The certificates are easy enough to replicate, a problem that has plagued the capital for years.
According to journalist Oscar Carbajal, 20,000 "pirate taxis" are believed to be roaming the streets of Mexico City. That's 14 percent of the total taxi pool.
Then there's the issue of actually getting to the place you're going. Mexico City is a labyrinth of streets that even the most seasoned of drivers can't possibly have memorized. Many drivers carry a Guía Roji atlas and make at least a half-hearted effort to thumb through it if you name a destination they don't know. But on more than one occasion, I've been left on the corner of a street in a neighborhood I don't know well, dispatched with a "Lo siento, mi'ja," before the driver peels off in search of another customer.
Uber provides all of its drivers with iPhones. In addition to calculating the ever-important cost of the trip, the phones provide crucial support for drivers. Maps, GPS, and point-A-to-point-B directions eliminate the "How do we get there?" question, taking pressure off both the driver and the passenger.
The haves and the have-nots
Echoing the resistance to the rideshare company that has appeared in other countries, not everyone is thrilled about Uber's presence in Mexico City.
"It's true that some members of the taxi drivers' union are not happy about Uber," García says. "Some of them have even attacked Uber drivers because they think we are taking work away from them. But the problems with the union are decreasing, as patrols have been assigned to hot spots where there have been conflicts between union members and Uber drivers."
Another driver I interviewed put it more bluntly. "Who cares if we're taking your jobs?" he asks. "You did this to yourself. If you look like a bum, drive a shitty car, and don't treat people with respect, you don't deserve to have a job. Get with the game."
Not every driver can get with the game, though, and that remains the flash point of conflict between Uber drivers and conventional and radio taxi drivers. Because of the stringent background checks, many drivers will never be able to get in on the Uber game. And unless they team up with friends or colleagues who can go in on a car to share, many conventional taxi drivers don't have the capital to buy or lease the kind of car Uber drivers are required to own.
Stimulating competition
Still, Uber has been a game-changer for drivers who have been able to get on board, and for riders, too. García explains that Uber has had such a rapid acceptance in the city because it provides a layer of safety that has never existed with regular taxis.
"Parents love Uber," he says, pointing out that they can track teenagers' movements and ensure that their children stay safe — never getting behind the wheel after drinking, for example — through the app. Uber is especially popular on weekends, when everyone wants to go out but no one wants to look for parking.
As Uber's success in the capital has boomed, local entrepreneurs have launched similar services. "There's one service called Cabify," García says, naming just one of the Uber-like companies that now offers services in Mexico City. Other similar apps include the Latin America-wide Easy Taxi, taxibeat, and Yaxi, all of which incorporate Uber-like features.
"None has the widespread acceptance of Uber, though," García says, noting that word of mouth about Uber spread quickly thanks to the enthusiasm of early adopters.
Uber, for its part, has been so buoyed by the success of its service in Mexico City that it subsequently launched in Guadalajara, Mexico's second largest city, and has taken an even bigger gamble by rolling out service in the border city of Tijuana.
Do riders miss the Mexican taxis of yore? Maybe. For many of us, there's a certain nostalgia attached to the old street hail cabs, especially the green-and-white VW Beetles that were phased out in 2012. But the added benefits of the car service have made Uber's arrival in Mexico, for many, a welcome one.

O Rock House está localizado à saída da auto-estrada. 183 em Outer Banks Bairro no lago Keowee. Estilo chalé Um quadro com vista para as montanhas da Carolina ocidental. Desce para a doca deslizamento coberta com deck superior para entreter "no lago". 2 grandes decks e um menor deck privativo para entretenimento, banhos de sol, jantar e relaxar.
Ótimo lugar para relaxar, nadar, se divertir e gostam de estar no lago. 15 minutos para Clemson University e Seneca SC. Lake Keowee é uma das mais limpas lagos e mais silenciosos do Sudeste.
Palavras-chave: Rock House
Came with some extended family for graduation- looking to avoid squeezing into some over-priced hotel rooms. This home has room to sleep dozens- it seems. Plenty of sleeping as well as family social space in the house. And multi-level outdoor space included 2 enormous decks, a fire-pit area, and a two-level dock with great seating area. All of these had lake views.
We had about 30 people for barbecue and still plenty of room.
Everything impeccably clean when we arrived and everything worked as advertised and up to par. Would definitely stay again and would recommend to anyone looking for alternative to Clemson area chain hotels if you have a few people. Only 20 min to campus- easy drive.
The houses were great. Had some minor issues which the owner quickly resolved. Would recommend this rental to anyone
We just ended a wonderful vacation with family staying at the Rock House. There was plenty of room for sixteen family members with ages ranging from 18 months to 74 years. Very nice location; not too close to town but not too far away either. The house was very well kept, comfortable and inviting; just like walking into home. Beautifully appointed with a collection of children's artwork and full of surprises. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed for cooking several full meals during our stay. The Writer's Retreat was perfect for the young adults to get away from the hustle and bustle of the main house. We loved the access to and from the lake as far as the steps to the dock were concerned. They were not too steep which made the walk back up to the house much more bearable! The kids loved fishing and jumping and swimming off the dock. We explored the lake from boat, and found the Jumping Rock. We also found the Lighthouse Restaurant and Keowee Marina, not to mention several waterfalls in the area, including Lake Jocassee.
Dave and Lucy thought of everything to make our stay pleasant. Dave was excellent at communication and was available by phone or text to answer any questions and discuss any concerns. Only bad thing was we didn't want to leave. Great place to stay and will for sure stay here again if it's available next time we go to Lake Keowee.
Our two oldest kids and my friends son were graduating from USC and Clemson over the weekend. With the volume of family and friends coming into town, it was more financially feasible to rent a house on Lake Keowee. We picked the Rock House as it had the ability to host 17 of us overnight, and it had space to celebrate with us and about 33 more visitors for the Saturday afternoon party. WE HAD A BLAST! The Writer's Retreat was perfect for our college kids and their friends, while the house was fantastic for three couples and our two little kids. Though we did catering from Moe's for the graduation party, we used the kitchen a lot on the other days and it was very well stocked for cooking. Most everyone hung out on the decks or the dock, and we even used the kayaks. A friend brought a boat over so the boat rides on the lake, especially during sunset, were stunning. The indoor accommodations were beautiful (Dave should put some pics up on this site).
I cannot say enough good things about this house and it's property. Dave was wonderful to work with, and quickly responds to emails. I wish I still lived in SC so we could go back more frequently!!! Maybe we'll get a chance to rent during some visits for CU football games - GO TIGERS!
From the responsiveness/helpfulness of Dave to the actual accommodations, our experience with The Rock House was terrific. Plenty of sleeping and eating options, cool house, great location, reasonable price... what more can you ask for?! Thanks, Dave, for everything. We sure hope to return.
We stayed at the rock house for a weekend and would have loved to stay longer. We had 13 adults between the house and the retreat and probably could have had a few more comfortably. The house is well maintained, has great decks for entertaining, and a great sunning/swimming dock. I would definitely come back again or recommend to a friend.
O Rock House está localizado na intocada Lake Keowee em Six Mile SC 12 minutos do centro de Clemson ea 7 minutos do Seneca. Natação canoagem, jet-ski, pesca, caiaque, caminhadas, golfe abundam. Clemson oferece restaurantes, eventos esportivos Clemson University e cinemas.

If you feel like an outcast, do you think other people pushed you out or did you choose to be an outcast? Or even kept yourself out from the beginning?
If you have "different" tastes or hobbies - do you think you chose those "different" things to like *because* you're an outcast or are you an outcast *because* of your tastes and hobbies?
Are you an outcast because of the way you look?
Do you make yourself look different because you already feel like an outcast?
What do you think of the outcasts you know, if you aren't one yourself?
Do you think *everyone* feels like an outcast?
What are your thoughts?
Most Helpful Girl
I used to be quite an outcast from primary up to high school. At first it was unvoluntary - I just didn't click with other kids. For that reason I dived in books and music, and consiquently started to oppose myself to others in a self-chosen way, although I'd always suffered from lack of friends.
It kind of changed when I got to university. In the beginning I acted quite differently from my normal behavior, but even now when I'm feeling safer and getting back to my slightly weird style, I still hang out with more people than in all those terrible 11 years of school. I also started to realize that distancing myself from people was my own fault at some point - after all, I didn't understand even simplest principles of social behavior.
The funny thing is, although I'm deadly happy to finally have some friends, I sometimes miss my "outcast" time. At least back then I spent much more time on education and other useful stuff :)00|00|0

The JOBC Contest
The first person that e-mails me the correct answer at firstname.lastname@example.com will win a commemorative Greg Maddux 3000th strikeout scorecard and a t-shirt from the Just One Bad Century catalog.
Here's the question: On this day in 2003, the Cubs traded an infielder to the Rockies. That infielder would go on to become a key member of the 2004 Red Sox team that finally broke their long World Series curse. He hit 2 HRs against the Yankees in the ALCS, and then another in the World Series against the Cardinals. Name him.
UPDATE: We have a winner! Matt Brown was the first one to e-mail me with the correct answer. Mark Bellhorn was the ex-Cub that forever became a Red Sox hero during the 2004 playoffs.
We'll have another JOBC contest next Monday.

Barriers to Accumulation and Productivity Differences in a Two Sector Growth Model
Barriers to investment are often regarded as an important determinant of the variation in international income levels. Nevertheless, in the standard neoclassical growth model, these barriers have only have small effects on per capita incomes. We consider the effects of barriers to accumulation in a two-sector neoclassical model that also exhibits barriers to labor mobility. Numerical simulation show that barriers to accumulation have a magnified effect in this model. The results imply that if labor markets are not efficient, then barriers to accumulation may be an important determinant of a country's income level. Moreover, we show that the removal of these barriers can produce several decades of rapid growth, reminiscent of economic growth miracles.

Sul blog del NyTimes c'è una bella intervista alla stupenda bassista Esperanza Spalding, presa in seguito al clamoroso sold-out del suo concerto al prestigioso Montreal International Jazz Festival, che ha aperto la sua tournè estiva lo scorso 17 agosto con il suo nuovo progetto Chamber Music Society che le ha permesso di vincere il Premio Grammy come migliore nuova artista.
L'articolo è degno di una lettura anche perchè corredato da alcune magnifiche foto della bellissima Spalding.
"NOT THAT SHE'S QUIET, REALLY, especially when you get her revved up — on the what-is-jazz-anyway issue. "Nobody has the guts to say it to my face, but some people in the jazz community don't think I am doing real jazz," Spalding said, a little perturbed. This comes from the old anti-jazz prejudice: if it is popular, it can't be jazz — a reason they recategorized Norah Jones from jazz to pop when she got popular. But Spalding is jazz, all right. In terms of genetics, her bass playing, classically articulated, is a lot like her voice: light but strong, not afraid of melody or happiness. Nor is she averse to pure scat — scat being that ancient (20th century) form of wordless vocal improvisation that the young people who watched her beat out Justin Bieber for 2010's best new artist might have mistaken for a new kind of tweet.
Notice, by the way, that Esperanza Spalding doesn't do a lot of tweeting. She is lo-fi and low-key, the kind of person who relaxes by doing some laundry and cleaning at home, one place in the West Village, one in Austin, Tex.
Notice too that she did not come out of nowhere; she has been working in the trenches for her entire adult life. She grew up in a tough neighborhood in Portland, Ore., in the '90s, when Portland was having a rough time. She was partly home-schooled but also spent time at Northwest Academy, a prestigious private school. "The point being that our life was determined by the circumstances," she said. "We pressed through a lot of things, good things and bad things, and that's O.K."

The more chippy edition will be used in the forthcoming "It still doesn't have a name yet" Castle Quest. (Hmm..That's a nice name!)
The more synthy version was created for the heck of it!
Exactly the same, but for the instruments.
AL's Trash!
I spent most of yesterday working with KORG Gadget, again.
I'm currently working my way through the ENTIRE collection of ALChoons, re-rendering them, fixing them up in CoolEdit, and re-uploading them to the server.
Along the way, I'm gathering up oodles of "Trashcan" Choons, most of which were abandoned early due to them sounding terrible!
But they're all being given a new lease of life as little mp3s, and are making their way over to the Patreon page. If you'd like to hear some of what I'd consider to be crap/unfinished ALChoons, along with other oddities, now's your chance to hear them! .. But only by subscribing to the Patreon!
Not too much done to the game, yesterday. I spent some time trying to find a nice ramp for the castle difficulties, but so far it's getting far too hard, far too quickly. I need to ease off a little, I think.
Otherwise, the game's now at a nice playable state.
I've added the above choon when roaming the overworld, but will have to create a in-castle "battle" theme, to go with it.
|UPDATE|Journal Intense will be the battle tune
Then it's a case of neatening the edges, adding sound effects, and hopefully I should be done fairly soon afterwards.
Daily Doodle : Sprung a Leak
All Platdude wanted was a nice relaxing rest, with his feet soaking in the paddling pool.
Things never go the way he plans.
I code and I choon and I write like a loon,
Whilst I'm sat on the couch, in this place.
I wonder if anyone sees all these verses,
Hid all the way down at the base.
If you'd like to stuff my mailbag, (Please do!!) you can do so right here, at http://bit.ly/AGAW_Mail. Send comments, questions, game ideas, thoughts and more, and they'll usually show up on my daily blog, the very next day.
