When you consider New Orleans as the birthplace of jazz, blues, swing,rhythm & blues, and rock, it would seem a representative single-CD compilation would be impossible to create. Nonetheless, the mix-tape wizards at Putumayo World Records have done it again.
New Orleans is exquisitely packaged with Putumayo's instantly recognizable brightly painted cover and environmentally friendly packaging. The thoroughly researched liner notes by New Orleans musicologist Baty Landis are presented in English, Spanish and French, in keeping with the areas multi-cultural heritage. They also include a page of tourism links, a Seafood Gumbo recipe from world-famous New Orleans chef Paul Prudhomme, and an Enhanced-CD section with some great New Orleans footage accompanied by Kermit Ruffins.
Ruffins is also the contemporary revivalist best suited to start-off the set with his own "Drop Me Off in New Orleans." Born in 1964, Ruffins is one of the most prominent new musicians keeping the New Orleans legacy alive. The trumpet/singer/songwriter cofounded the Rebirth Brass Band, and later the Barbecue Swingers. Putumayo World Records released a complete CD of his music at the same time, further proof of his importance. The ghost of Louis Armstrong looms large over this and every song in the collection.
Speaking of trumpet/vocal wonders, this version of "I Gotta Right to Sing the Blues" pairs 23-year-old Nicholas Payton with 91-year-old Doc Cheatham. Cheatham was a New Orleans native who backed all kind of big names since the vaudeville days, subbed for Louis Armstrong in Chicago, and led his own bands since 1926. Though he could perform everything from Dixieland to Latin to Hard-Bop, he didn't master his own solo style until 70 years old. Here, he also sings in his inimitable old-timey way. The same age as Ruffins, New Orleans-co-foundednative Payton proved himself a Young Lion in even the most selective jazz circles. This, thanks to his family connections (bassist Walter Payton is his father), tutelage with the Marsalis dynasty, and most of all his formidable talent. Hell yeah, they've gotta right.
One of the most famous exporters of New Orleans music, Louis Prima (1911-1978) performs "Basin Street Blues" as only he could. The song itself is a time capsule, referring to the Storyville red light district, which only lasted from the 1890s through the First World War, which was long enough to etch itself permanently on America's creative conscience. It was composed by Spencer Williams in 1926 and recorded by Louis Armstrong in 1929. Another native son, Dr. John provides his version of this song as well. Born in 1940 and active since the late 50s, Dr. John is a well-established New Orleans tradition. A singer/guitarist/pianist from the 8th Ward, his crazy blend of music can be compared to seafood gumbo, a harmony of deeply distinct ingredients. He may not be a household name outside of New Orleans, but he is a force of nature as real as Katrina, having collaborated with Professor Longhair, Pete Fountain, Al Hirt, Allen Toussaint, the Meters, the Neville Brothers and everyone else in the region, plus John Hammond, Jr., Eric Clapton, Mick Jagger and others. His "Basin Street Blues" is Southern Voodoo Boogie-Woogie at its best.
The Preservation Hall Hot 4 with Duke Dejan provided "Wrap Your Troubles in Dreams," a true testament to the spirit of New Orleans. The song was part of a historic night at the historic hall.
"Baby Won't You Please Come Home" presents the gospel and R&B shadings of New Orleans' music, thanks to Topsy Chapman & The Pros. One of the area's most prominent female musicians, Topsy grew up in Kentwood, Louisiana in a musical family. She is a fixture of New Orleans festivals, clubs, and riverboats. She became an internationally known figure due to the Off-Broadway hit musical "One Mo' Time" which she arranged and starred in, as well as her frequent appearances on Garrison Keillor's "A Prairie Home Companion."
"The Devil Done Got Me Blues" is a hard-swinging instrumental hit by Kevin Clark and the Jazz Revolution. Clark is another fabulous trumpeter who has been praised by Al Hirt and Pete Fountain, in print by the Gambit Weekly, Downbeat Magazine, Toronto Star, and Ottawa Sun, and even a recent Grammy nomination. Kevin has recorded and toured the world with Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown, Pete Fountain, The Dukes of Dixieland, the New Orleans Nightcrawlers Brass Band, Preservation Hall Jazz Band, Junior Brown, Lee Greenwood, as well as long-term gigs for Disney and the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus.
No New Orleans collection would be complete without something from the Louis Armstrong (1901-1971) canon. What can be said that hasn't been said? Suffice it to say, Pops is a central figure not only in New Orleans and American music history, but also Western Civilization at large. "Tin Roof Blues" is one of Armstrong's lesser works, but nonetheless infused with his unmistakable vocal, horn, and story-telling style. It's a song he performed from the 1920s until his death in 1971, this time with his 1966 All Star band.
Though not a trumpet or singer, clarinetist Dr. Michael White is probably the living musician most resembling Louie Armstrong as a musical ambassador. Dr. White is a musicologist, jazz historian, educator, clarinet player, bandleader, and Xavier University professor. He started out playing Classical music, but eventually switched his allegiance to jazz, Blues and Brass Band traditions. Though permanently positioned in New Orleans, New York jazz audiences know him from his annual New Year's Eve shows at the Village Vanguard. He also remains closely associated with Wynton Marsalis since his 1989 release, The Majesty of the Blues, and numerous Jazz at the Lincoln Center series since. His "Give It Up (Gypsy Second Line)" was written for New Orleans parades, but borrows heavily from Gypsy and Jewish party music as well. Educational and fun? That's right, Doc.
In addition to Dr. John and Dr. Michael White, Deacon John is a musical giant barely known beyond New Orleans city limits. He is a legendary guitarist and singer whose credits as a session musician include chart-toppers such as Lee Dorsey's "Working in the Coal Mine", Ernie K-Doe's "Mother in Law" and Irma Thomas' "Ruler of My Heart". His song "Going Back to New Orleans" is really the big-band climax from the fantastic documentary film called Jump Blues, which showcases Deacon John with Dr. John, Allen Toussaint, Wardell Quezergue, Zion Harmonizers, and others playing material inspired by the likes of Erma Franklin, Fats Domino, Professor Longhair. It's a celebration of New Orleans music if ever there was one, and an obvious fit for this record.
As a fitting closer, Gregg Stafford and Dr. Michael White offer the medley "Bye & Bye/When the Saints Go Marching In." It demonstrates the characteristically New Orleans fusion of funeral parades and Gospel shouting, blues and affirmation. Stafford is another trumpeter/vocalist in the Satchmo tradition, joined in perfect harmony by Dr. White's joyous clarinet.
Putumayo's New Orleans is a representative collection which gives you a good feeling for what this vibrant city is all about, and a little about each of these essential musicians. It also succeeds on another level by sending you out to hear more from each delightful artist. By design, it's heavy on trumpet/vocal led swing jazz combos, with plenty of clarinet glissandos, all with that distinctly Southern swagger. By showcasing young musicians with the old, Putumayo reminds us New Orleans jazz is not simply historical, but a living, constantly evolving art form.
From the time New Orleans was released, Putumayo committed a portion of their proceeds to Tipitinia's Foundation and local radio station WWOZ, but after last year's devastating hurricanes, ALL proceeds from New Orleans and Mississippi Blues are given directly to relief efforts until the end of 2006. So buy 'em already, you'll love this musiband-leaderc and now you really have no excuse.

With three main events in three different disciplines, predicting the most explosive bout in tomorrow's Colosseum IV fight card at the Winnipeg Convention Centre is next to impossible.
First there's the Gladiators title fights -- one in Mixed Martial Arts and the other in kickboxing. Sagkeeng First Nation's Chris Fontaine will try to take Ohio-native Mitch Whitesell's Gladiators middleweight title, while Winnipeg's 'Dangerous' Dave Zuniga puts his Gladiators welterweight kickboxing belt on the line against Ryan 'The Lion' Madigan.
The third main event is for the boxing traditionalists, as Pine Falls' Larry 'Razor' Sharpe -- who just returned from a sparring stint in Montreal with the No. 2-ranked super middleweight (WBC) Lucien Bute -- will face Minnesota-product Chris Holt.
"The main events are all going to be good, in the sense that anything can happen," said event promoter John Vernaus. "They are all that close. Either guy (in each fight) could win. Even Larry is in tough, the guy he is fighting against can really hit."
Ten fights in total make up tomorrow's card, with MMA, Muay Thai and boxing all well-represented. Vernaus, an avid boxing supporter who has been promoting the sport through his King John label for 14 years, has recently delved into the MMA streams, finding an increasing interest and more importantly, a bigger audience.
"It's just the wave of the future in fighting," he said. "I'm a businessman and if you're not going forward, you're going backwards. The boxing was only drawing certain people and you can't really afford to bring in the big names anymore.
"People really like the MMA style, where you're slugging it out like a street brawl," he added. "It goes in spurts. Boxing is on the downslide, because you have no real great heavyweight champion. There are some great fighters out there, so I don't think it's ever going to die. Boxing is deep-rooted, but the MMA ... if you look at how many martial arts gyms there are in the city as compared to boxing, it's 30-to-1. And that's right across North America."
The driving force behind MMA is television, and that exposure will be present at Colosseum IV, as well. The event will be made available for pay-for-view, with UFC's Stephan Bonnar (who is currently serving a suspension), Duke Roufus and Aleks Paunovic providing commentary.
A slew of local combatants make up most of the undercard, but one fight which was going to make local MMA history appears to be shelved. Keri Crothers, who was scheduled to lace them up for Winnipeg's first women's professional MMA bout with Liz Posener, will not be at the WCC. She recently was diagnosed with cancer, and was scheduled to have surgery this week.
Vernaus said he hoped to find a replacement, but wasn't confident a suitable fighter could be found to take on Posener.
Tickets and tables are still available for the event. Call 982-4540 or Ticketmaster for more information.

MANAMA (Reuters) - Bahrain's largest opposition group urged Saudi Arabia to withdraw its forces and called for a U.N. inquiry into a crackdown on mainly Shi'ite protesters that has angered Iran and raised tensions in the oil-exporting region.
Bahrain arrested seven opposition leaders on Thursday, a day after its forces moved in to end weeks of pro-democracy protests that have sucked in troops from its fellow Sunni-ruled neighbour and prompted the king to declare martial law.
"The military should withdraw from Bahrain, the military of Saudi Arabia, and this is a call to the Saudi king," Sheikh Ali Salman, head of Wefaq, told Al Jazeera television.
"We call for an investigation by the United Nations into what has happened from February 14 up to now. If protesters were in the wrong, then they should be held to account."
Three protesters died in the crackdown. Three policemen were also killed, hit by demonstrators in fast-moving cars.
The crackdown has drawn sympathy protests from Shi'ites across the Gulf Arab region, including the world's top oil exporter Saudi Arabia. Iran has complained to the United Nations.
Iran, which supports Shi'ite groups in Iraq and Lebanon, asked countries in the region to join it in urging Saudi Arabia to withdraw troops from the Gulf Arab island state.
"How could one accept a government to invite foreign military forces to suppress its own citizens?" Iran's Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi said in a letter to U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, also addressed to the Arab League.
Bahrain said: "Iran's move does not serve security and stability in the Gulf region."
Over 60 percent of Bahrainis are Shi'ites. Most say they want the same treatment as Sunnis and a constitutional monarchy, but calls by hardliners for the overthrow of the monarchy have alarmed Sunnis, who fear the unrest serves Iran.
Bahraini state TV called the detainees leaders of "civil strife" and said they had been communicating with foreign countries and inciting murder and destruction of properties.
It did not name the countries. Analysts say the intervention of troops from Saudi Arabia, which is concerned Bahraini protests could inspire its own Shi'ite Muslim minority, raises tension with Shi'ite power Iran.
Oil prices rose on Thursday as the Gulf tensions fuelled fears of further supply disruption while investors weighed the impact on energy demand from quake-hit Japan. Capital flight from Bahrain is starting to pressure its currency and threaten its position as a Gulf financial centre.
Most Western nations have urged their citizens to leave Bahrain.
Among those detained overnight were Haq leader Hassan Mushaima and Wafa leader Abdel Wahhab Hussein, who had led calls for the overthrow of the royal family, Wefaq officials said.
More moderate Wefaq had limited its demands to political and constitutional reform. Also arrested was Ibrahim Sharif, head of the secular leftist party Waad that signed up to the same demands as Wefaq.
"Two of the thugs climbed over the fence to get in our yard, one went over and pointed a gun in Ibrahim's face and the other went to our garage to let everyone else in," Farida Ismail, Sharif's wife, told Reuters by telephone. "They were going around wrecking things in the house."
In Geneva, U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay urged Bahrain to rein in its security forces, citing allegations that they had killed, beaten and carried out arbitrary arrests of protesters and attacked medical workers.
On Thursday, more than a dozen casualties who had been taken to Bahrain International Hospital during the crackdown were gone. Nurses said they had mostly been suffering from teargas inhalation and cuts and bruises. The wards were empty.
Tanks were still guarding the entrances to Salmaniya hospital on Thursday, after raiding the compound during the crackdown to clear tents that had been set up in the car park by opposition activists.
Pearl roundabout, focal point of weeks of protests, was a scene of devastation on Thursday. Some tattered tents remained as diggers uprooted palm trees that surrounded the statue where activists had been celebrating into the night only days before.
Troops were allowing only residents in and a long line of cars was backed up behind a checkpoint. They waved through drivers heading to work in the financial district, where the protesters had tried to extend their sit-in early this week.
The military, which is now in charge of Bahrain, banned all protests from Wednesday and imposed an open-ended curfew from 4 p.m. to 4 a.m. across a large swathe of Manama. The curfew was cut back by four hours in some areas on Thursday.
Kuwait said on Thursday its navy would had to Bahrain soon to protect its waters.

Comedic Timing
Occasionally someone — usually my mother — will ask me why I, a vibrant, intelligent, attractive and witty Jewish writer, am still single. And my answer has three parts: Jonathan Silverman, Ben Stiller and Jon Stewart. Each perfect for me in his own way: funny, cute, Jewish. Each fated to cross my path. And, after crossing my path, each moved on to be with another woman, outside our faith. The ones that got away.
Am I insulted? Not really. I have enough of a grasp on reality to know that I lack a certain Hollywood glamour. I don't have a posse of hair stylists and makeup artists following me around, nor are paparazzi staking out my health club, desperate for a mere glimpse of me in a pair of my unflattering spandex gym shorts. But I remain confident that if any one of these three had ever met me and really gotten to know me, he would have left his blonde girlfriend faster than my parents could say mazel tov. (Which these days, since I'm 32, is fairly fast.)
Jonathan Silverman was my first. He is the son of Jewish parents — his father is a Conservative rabbi, as was his father's father. The cadence of his speech in "Brighton Beach Memoirs" stirred in me the neurotic heritage that was my birthright. Although I stopped watching his embarrassing show, "The Single Guy," I never closed the part of my heart that opened when I first saw him on-screen.
Nearly a decade ago, my journalist mother flew to Israel on business. Across the aisle, she spied Jonathan, approached and queried: "Am I looking at 'Weekend at Bernie's'?"
After a short interrogation, he revealed that he was going to Israel to meet up with his parents. My mother, of course, set up interviews with Jonathan and his parents as a rare "Celebrities in Israel" feature for the local Jewish paper.
At the time, I was mortified. But in retrospect, if only she had said, "I have a daughter…" we would be producing little Kustanowitz-Silvermans of our own. Our union would have also reinvigorated his flagging film career — I would be Sharon to his Ozzy, managing his decisions, advising on scripts and TV projects — my keen sense of the difference between drama and comedy could have redeemed him from the career hell to which his previous decisions had consigned him.
And then there was Ben. Ben Stiller: my neighbor, my co-star — my destiny? In "Reality Bites," Gen-X audiences were supposed to identify and fall in love with Ethan Hawke, but there was something about Ben Stiller. His friendship and team projects with sarcastic brunettes like Janeane Garofalo gave me hope for a future with him. Even when he struggled with his zipper, writhing in agony in "There's Something About Mary," he had a noble, Semitic way about him. Why would his character waste time with perky, giggly non-Jewish Cameron Diaz when we could be making seder together with his parents on the Upper West Side?
Soon after I moved to New York, Ben began work on "Keeping the Faith," filming near my apartment. When a call went out for extras for a synagogue scene, I knew I was a natural. I went and stayed through the six hours of filming. He was so cute — shorter than I had thought, but still so cute. But, after only an hour of filming, he vanished into the night.
Shortly after our film debut, any last vestige of hope disintegrated. I learned through my entertainment industry insiders (People magazine) that he had run off to Hawaii and tied the knot with Christine Taylor, best known for her role as Phoebe's alternately bald and blonde friend Bonnie on "Friends." Very unhaimish, Ben.
Two down, one to go.
With Jon Stewart, the betrayal hurt most of all. With his sarcastic, intelligent sense of humor in perfect sync with mine, our Jewish children would have been unstoppable. They would have become masters of wit, the life of every party, the most celebrated writers and performers of their generation. We could have built a home founded on smiles and laughter and cemented by our knowledge of Yiddish curse words.
Of course, part of this situation was my own denial; he was already off the dating market. But still I harbored hope that his heritage and generational guilt would persuade him to pursue love with a woman of the tribe (preferably, me). By the time he was helming "The Daily Show," where my brother was an intern, I had heard the devastating news: Jon was engaged. I lost my comic powers to heartbreak, for at least two or three hours.
But I recovered. I even learned to date again, looking for a Jewish male with a killer smile and a sense of humor that could send me into paroxysms of laughter and inspire my own comic creativity. It may take years to find him in the general dating population, but I am not perturbed. If I can't find him on my own, all I have to do is wait — it doesn't take a VH1 special to remind me that Hollywood marriages are notoriously short; while I wouldn't say I was gunning for the collapse of these couplings, I do have my figurative ear to the ground. The other day, I thought I heard rumblings of trouble in a Hollywood marriage, but it turned out to be just the New York subway. No matter. I'll be patient. Statistically speaking, it's only a matter of time.
Esther D. Kustanowitz, a writer, editor and performer, lives in Manhattan where she waits for a Jewish funnyman to sweep her off her feet.

Block Up SunscreenReviewing: Fruit Of The Earth Block Up 30 Spf Sunscreen | Rating:
I have been using Fruit Of The Earth Block Up 30 SPF sunscreen for quite awhile now and I really like it. It comes in a twelve ounce container for about five dollars. It is hypoallergenic and fragrance free. It is also very water and sweat resistant. It is made with Aloe Vera. I like it because it has a nice texture and is not too greasy like other sunscreen I've tried. I use it on my kids everyday in the summer when they will be outside playing in the sun. It works great on them even when they have been swimming or playing in the water sprinkler as it doesn't wear off and it is truely water resistant. I use it a lot for work. I sometimes use a wekder at work which requires me to wear sunscreen to keep my skin from burning from the welding flash, Block Up works great and protects my skin all day.

In the device manager, do you have yellow exclamation points next to your card reader? If so, you need to install drivers. Go to your laptop website and download the appropriate drivers and install them, in compatibility mode if necessary.

Most if not all Vista drivers will work with Windows 7 - if you cannot find specific drivers for windows 7 try the vista ones on the manufacturers website first - if these do not work you may be able to use drivers from the manufacturer of the actual hardware if you can discover this.
If you can post your full system details I'm sure someone will try to find the relevant drivers if your own search fails

Aberdeen, city, seat (1880) of Brown county, northeastern South Dakota, U.S. It lies in the James River valley about 160 miles (260 km) northeast of Pierre. Established in 1881 as a junction of several railroads, it was named for Aberdeen in Scotland by Alexander Mitchell, president of the Chicago, Milwaukee, and St. Paul Railroad. Aberdeen is in the state's most productive agricultural region, producing cattle, hogs, sheep, soybeans, corn (maize), wheat, barley, rye, hay, and sunflowers. The city's economy has now diversified to include manufacturing (medical supplies, power transmission equipment, machine tools, and missile components) and services (travel services, agricultural marketing, and financial collection). Aberdeen is a health care, trade, and commercial centre for a large region. Tourism, based on fishing and hunting (particularly during the autumn pheasant-hunting season), augments the economy. Aberdeen is home to Northern State University (1901) and Presentation College (1951). The Dacotah Prairie Museum preserves regional history. Authors Hamlin Garland, known for his autobiographical Middle Border series, and L. Frank Baum, who wrote The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (1900), lived in Aberdeen. The annual Oz Festival (June) commemorates Baum, his work, and his time in Aberdeen. Sand Lake National Wildlife Refuge (northeast) and Richmond Lake (northwest) and Mina Lake (west) recreation areas are nearby. Inc. town, 1882; city, 1883. Pop. (2000) 24,658; (2010) 26,091.

Trip Report Six Flags Great Adventure Sunday 7/22/12
Followup from my previous trip on 6/26/12 that I wrote a TR for, I planned to come back with my roomate and another friend more prepared.
First things first I convinced them to get the flash pass with me which they were reluctant at first but we planned on staying til 4pm because my roomate wanted to goto Atlantic City afterwards so they figure get all the rides in with it during that time.
We all stayed in the Red Roof Inn near Princeton for $66 after tax, took about a 30min drive aimed to get there by 10am but instead got there at 10:30 because we were trying to find parking outside of the park so we could take one car in but ended up driving both our cars in; we didn't realize the place to park was the outlet mall which was the exit after Great Adventure.
Security checkpoint was again long as usual and I got in well before my roomate and friend since they were stuck behind alot of people so I used the bathroom and waited a few minutes before reaching the admission gate which was no wait at all!
After watching the dvd tutorial walked into the next room and ordered the gold flash pass for 3, a huge surprise for me is when I presented my season pass I received a $10 discount!
Green Lantern was closed the entire day as mentioned on the flash pass.
First thing I did with the flash pass was make a reservation for Superman since I don't want to wait 90+ min for it, we first headed to the Twister which was a one ride wait serving as a warmup for them. After riding it, it was a supershort ride but long waiting time in terms of loading people up, the shoulder restraints will not fit a tall upperbody like me and it crushed me throughout the ride luckily I survived without much pain.
The flashpass vibrated shortly before the Twister ride saying the Superman was ready, we got there and saw the que line already at the 60min mark but with the flash pass we waited about 3 trains for the last row, after riding Batwing 6times straight the other day at SFA this ride felt like nothing cept for the loop which I could feel the force go through my chest.
Cool thing about the flash pass is after you use it to get in line at the station you can make your next reservation while waiting for our ride, so we decided to ride Bizarro next. On our way there we saw no line for the Runaway Mine Train so we walked on and rode the back. I was pretty impressed with the ride cuz I felt some airtime hills during the ride which I didn't remember feeling when I first rode it many years ago prob cuz I rode near the front.
We got to Bizarro and used the flash pass, it wasn't necessary as there was no line in the station, we waited 3 trains for the front seat. Great ride as usual, my eyes were getting watery during the ride and I actually got to hear the onboard audio, I enjoyed at the end of the ride they play the chanting of BIZ-ARRO! BIZ-ARRO!
It was noon, I reserved for El Toro next and there was no line! My roomate was thinking we didn't need the flash pass but after we rode El Toro, my roomate loved it since it was his first time riding it and we rode on it again right afterwards, unfortunately the other friend was too scared of it after the first time so he waited out.
We walked over to Rolling Thunder and waited for about two trains without using the flash pass only the left side was running at the time, this coaster is nothing compared to El Toro but somehow I felt it being less bumpy than the last time I first rode it.
Next reservation was Kingdaka, our friend got on an early train, while we waited for the front seat which was an extra 30min. It was enjoyable first time around, we went on again this time trying out the 2nd row since I noticed the 2nd row of each car is elevated. To my delight since I'm tall enough I was able to experience the wind in my face while sitting in the 2nd row!
Unfortunately we lost our friend since we were gone 45min after the 2rides on Kingdaka. We eventually located him and headed towards the Skyride which unfortunately doesn't use flash pass and waited about 20min to get on.
Made the next reservation for Buccaneer since our friend likes the ship rides, def thought was the most boring ride of the day and there was a long line for it.
We went on Skull Mountain next which we were in and out from the exit, it was nice having a separate row for flash pass users since we saw a huge line on the other side not sure how long it extended to, like last time we thought it was a pretty boring ride aside from it being indoors.
We made the reservation for Nitro which we had to wait 10min for, by now the park was pretty crowded, the regular line for Nitro was at the 90min mark. We rode the back row and was pretty enjoyable.
We headed over to Dark Knight via flash pass but the line to the trains was pretty long moving slowly after waiting for the opening movie clip of Harvey Dent. But they thought the ride was more enjoyable than Skull Mountain since it had unexpected hills.
We went on Batman the ride next, the flash pass line went out the back door so we had to wait a few to get in and find the shortest row, def the ride has the most G force in the park as my right foot was feeling it as we went on every loop.
By now we were hungry and thirsty, I made a reservation for Skyscreamer and was able to get on after one ride cycle, the regular line was long. But comparing this to Cedar Points windseeker this had more speed to it 40mph.
My roomate and friend went to the food court in the Boardwalk area and got noodles while I went next door and got Loaded Nachos for 8.99 and the Collectors Slurpee cup I enjoy the Sprite flavor haven't seen that at any 7eleven and carried the cup with me the rest of the day.
While my roomate and friend were beat from walking around and wanted to rest. I went back to Kingdaka on my own I rode the 4th row on the dark blue train and found it not that enjoyable didn't feel the wind on my face that time. When I waited after the dark blue train broke down and had to be pulled from the launch track back into the 2nd station which caused a delay.
After the ride started running again I was able to get on the orange train 2nd row and enjoyed it, I find the wind kept blowing against my chin and felt my shaved hairs being irritated. Luckily enough the train after us happened to be the dark blue train which broke down again so they unloaded us from the back station, I had to go back to the front station to retrieve my slurpee cup, they would let me retrieve it at first!
I met up with my roomate and friend at Bizarro, while waiting for them I filled out a survey and got a free t-shirt at the Cheverlet tent nearby and sat against one of the Bizarro foundation poles on the cobra roll and got a nice massage from the vibrations whenever the train went by, used the flash pass to get on and the station was packed saw the que line go out to about 30min looks like we rode the 3rd row and my roomate enjoyed it as well.
We went back to El Toro and rode it two more times bypassing the hour long que lines via flash pass while waiting 10min the 2nd time and got a refill of my slurpee.
Went back to Superman for another 10min wait via the flashpass while there was about 60min wait for the regular line. Thought about leaving the park but decided to stay; I have a flash pass I need to use it!
Headed over to Kingdaka and noticed the dark blue train was acting up and therefore the ride was stopped.
Decided to head back to Nitro and by now it was getting dark, probably about a 30min wait for the regular line but after using the flash pass didn't want to wait for the front row so sat in the 3rd row and the darkness provided a nice atmosphere, went on front row of Batman afterwards and really enjoyed riding at night.
Headed back to Kingdaka and it was running by now it was 9:30 and was able to get 3 rides in the 2nd row and they were amazing each time with the lighted launch track and being able to feel the wind grazing the face each time.
What also was amazing was the ride operators being super efficient with the line moving, as they were telling passengers from the previous trains to take off your seatbelt and take off the neighbor seatbelt if no one was riding next to them. I noticed each time as I entered via flash pass entrance there was still alot of people waiting in the pitch black que line I felt bad for them as it was around 5min after 10pm they finally stopped the line.
I owe this day to the amazing gold flash pass!

XPMode-App in seamless mode doesn't find path to mapped drive
sorry for my bad english.
I have installed VirtualPC with XPmode on Win7 Prof. 64 bit to run an older
On the host Drive C: I made a folder.
From the Virtual machine I mapped this folder (net use) as drive Z:.
If we start the Application in seamless mode every now and then it fails
to find drive Z: on startup.
So to say on Monday ist works fine - next day it fails, restarting the computer
(shut down, power off) sometimes helps.
Any suggestions to work around this problem?
|My System Specs
|20 May 2011
Settings, integration features -> manual. not automatic
Always start without integration features enabled check that the network connections are working in the VM guest.
Start (enable) the integration features, and logon with the required credentials. Before shutting down, disable the integration features, logon as user and then close down the guest VM to ensure that the restart is not in enabled mode. Otherwise the startup of the VM is hidden from you, and any problems with starting the network cannot be seen and dealt with.

Thanks for the reply.
Unfortunately this will not help because the users of the PC are not
experienced in Computer internals.
This was the reason to use the 'seamless mode': just doubleclick the
Application on the Win 7 desktop and 'here you go'.
Do you think it could be a timing problem: e.g. the application tries
to find the drive Z: before the vm has established the connection?
|My System Specs
|21 May 2011
Do you absolutely need integration features and seamless mode? As long as you have the network connection, for data transfer between the application and the host machine, could you not just run the application as the shell of the xpmode appliance, so that it just appears as a window within the host?
|My System Specs
|23 May 2011
The answer is simple: YES.
90% of the work is done with the old application, a multimedia database.
We do need the printers, the scanner, the camera, the backup-Disk (all USB).
We do need the whole screen and full color.
Last but not least we need a simple way to get access to the multimedia
files from the database (xpmode-side) and windows 7.
What could be easier as to store this files on the host-drive in a shared

Sadly, Martin, if there is an issue with the virtual machine intermittently losing the network connection, then you have an ongoing technical support problem. It ceases to be simple.
I believe that this is a consequence of the flaky way that Windows still handles networking. The workaround used by Microsoft in Windows Virtual PC is to use the remote desktop and terminal services - a highly insecure working situation since all the drives on the host are exposed to the Virtual Machine.
XP was easy to network - to earlier Windows versions and itself, but Vista and Windows Seven are difficult to network with XP in a peer-to-peer Windows Workgroup environment. Typical of Microsoft, an additional layer of complexity has been added, I believe, to deliberately exclude XP or make it difficult to integrate with the new systems.
I will be posting about the LLTD fix for XP in the network and sharing area.
For me the worst drawback of the Integrated features is the long loading and restarting times, and the repeated logins if switching virtual screen resolution or alt-tabbing to the host machine.
We do need the printers, the scanner, the camera, the backup-Disk (all USB).
We do need the whole screen and full color.
Last but not least we need a simple way to get access to the multimedia
files from the database (xpmode-side) and windows 7.
What could be easier as to store this files on the host-drive in a shared
As part of the installation of XPMode, the graphics drivers, networking and USB connectivity are installed into the guest XP system.
With Integration features turned off, the graphics mode is capable of being switched from a native 16-bit to 32-bit colour and the screen can be resized at any size up to full screen, without having to log back on, or wait for the graphics to restabilize for long.
After the initial startup, the Integration features can be turned off and set to manual, and with the next reboot of the XPMode virtual machine, the host shares will not be present, and will have to be explicitly made.
The prerequisite for networking is to bridge the physical network adapter, so that the gateway connects the XPMode machine on the same subnet as the host Windows 7:
After the preliminary network choices have been made, and the XPMode VM is running, a network share on the host Windows 7 machine can be connected from any XP Windows Explorer window using tools, map network drive..., then enter \\host ip address\sharename. e.g. \\192.168.0.113\win7boot in the illustrated image.
If the connection is made 'using a different username' and password and 'reconnect at logon' is checked, the share can be made persistent.
Connecting the printer as a networked shared device can be made tricky by the security that the Windows Virtual PC imposes on the guest - that's where having the Link-Layer responder set up on the XP machine comes in handy.
The http link for the LLTD fix can be seen in the last image. Link Layer Topology Discovery (KB922120) not included in SP3 no problem!!! Read on… « x3webworx no sugar coating blog , download from Microsoft Network Map in Windows Vista does not display computers that are running Windows XP.
However, any number of USB devices - storage, image acquisition, and printers etc, can readily be attached using the USB button in the control menu, especially in fullscreen mode.
It is easy to switch out of fullscreen back to Windows 7, by clicking on the fullscreen control area, and then Alt-Tab to any of the open windows 7 tabs, including the desktop, and Alt-Tab back to XPMode fullscreen.
Exiting the XPMode by most means invites the user to hibernate the virtual machine. If the host machine and the XPMode VMs can be given static IP Addresses by the gateway/router, there should be no connectivity problems, as long as the XPMode VM is started out of hibernation when the host machine network is up and running.

Thank you so much Fafhrd for all the time you spent for my problem.
Hoping, that other users will benefit from this too.
I will give it a try on a machine which is not in use.
For my users (as a first aid) I will put all the files into the virtual machines drive.
So another piece of ergonomy is gone. The database in use dates back to 1987
on a Atari ST - migrated to Mac - migrated to Win 98, 2k,XP without problems.
But now Win7 is a mess and it seems impossible to buy a laptop without
special components which need Win7-drivers to work.

HMI & Accessories
Humans are visual creatures. This also applies when operating machines and systems. The more the operator's eye can make sense of the information, the more reliably he will operate the system. Operating devices with the cumbersome name of ""Human-Machine Interface"" (HMI) are specially designed for mechanical engineering and process technology. As well as a touchscreen which is suitable for industrial use, the HMI also features specific software which evaluates, displays and processes process data. Standardised processes mean that integrating an HMI into a system with programmable logic controllers (PLC) is easy.
Animations and graphicsAs a simple example, the fill level of a tank can be elegantly visualised with a realistic depiction. All that is required is a signal from the tank's pressure sensor. The HMI software takes care of the rest. The same goes for the visualisation of diagrams, trend curves etc.
Efficient engineering with SIMATIC HMISIMATIC HMI operating devices with touchscreen impress with their brilliant display quality and powerful visualisations. This makes it far easier to operate both individual machines and complete systems. The flexible, ready-to-go solution saves time in terms of installation and engineering.
SIMATIC KTP700 Basic Panel
With button/touchscreen operation, 7" TFT display, 65,536 colours, PROFINET interface
OMRON NB series
With the Omron NB series, you can create your engineering projects easily and securely. One special feature is the window management, which can display pop-ups and window-in-window.
Data transfer, recipesThe big advantage of an HMI is the large number of actions that can be carried out with a single control element in comparison to traditional buttons and switches. For example, recipe data can be collected simply on a freely customisable recipe display, and then transferred to the PLC.
The HMI operating device has its own processor, in order to implement the functionalities envisaged in the engineering design. The analogue and/or digital signals from the PLC system, sensors etc. are imported into program objects and prepared for visualisation. Data entered by the user will then also be output as a standardised analogue or digital signal.
Industrial monitors with touchscreen or multi-touch functionalityFor PC-based systems, an HMI with integrated processor is not required. Instead, robust industrial monitors with touchscreen displays which can be integrated into front panels are used.
Advantech FPM-7181W
18.5" industrial monitor with multi-touch functionality, for PC-assisted visualisation of process data and sequences, as well as for entering parameters. IP66 protection on the front side.
Advantech FPM-5151G
15" industry monitor for industrial HMI applications. Robust, flat aluminium enclosure for integration into front panels, IP65. RS232/USB interface for the touchscreen functionality.
Part of the area of human machine interface that is widely utilised in the automation industry, displays play an important part of ensuring that processes continue to function as efficiently as possible. For people to be able to regulate certain automated processes, they need good quality information, often shown on process displays which carry out highly specific functions. Process displays can, for instance, be used to display the temperature of a machine that is carrying out a certain function. Equally, one might be used alongside a PLC system to show when any alteration it has made to a process has been carried out, according to its pre-determined programming. Most displays offer simple parameterisation, have programmable interface parameters and show their numerical information with standard LEDs. These vary in size greatly, according to the particular requirements of the place where they will be used. Some display only offer single digits but others are capable of many more. Made by manufacturers such as GS Industrie, Ditel and Red Lion, some have process display accessories, like USB or RS232 interfaces, and many offer standard input interfaces such as RS485.

Some 200 community members, local leaders, solar power industry participants, state government officials and members of Congress gathered in Mount Airy, North Carolina on Monday to dedicate next week's commissioning of the Mayberry Solar Farm, the first of its kind in Surry County.
The Mayberry solar power farm project is an excellent illustration of how, with effective support and incentives, public-private sector partnerships collaborating on renewable energy projects can succeed in generating jobs and helping local businesses, as well as building community and improving the health and quality of the local environment.
More than 20 local and state businesses were involved in the solar farm's construction, which took roughly two years, Meghan Evans reported for The Mount Airy News.
Built on six acres of land surrounding a municipal wastewater treatment plant, the 1.2 megawatt (MW) solar photovoltaic (PV) power farm's ground-mounted solar panel arrays will supply clean, renewable power to some 150 local homes through Duke Energy's grid.
Evans outlines the network of public and private business relationships involved in the project, and the government incentives that helped realize it.
A Community Solar Power Effort
O2 Energies worked with city officials over the past two years to obtain the right-of-way and lease to make use of the city wastewater plant's surrounding land. Surrey Bank & Trust provide multimillion dollar loan financing. Strata Solar provided engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) services.
Duke Energy and ElectriCities of North Carolina will buy the renewable energy credits (RECs) and electricity the solar power farm produces.
Strata Solar's chief operating officer John Morrison and others involved believe the Mayberry Farm project is the leading edge of a solar power wave in North Carolina that is still building momentum.
Supporting this view, Duke Energy renewable energy managing director Owen Smith noted that the cost of solar power, as opposed to the cost of fossil fuels, continues to decline. Morrison added that not only is solar power clean and renewable, it also comes with the advantages of much more stability and predictability of electricity prices.
N.C. Rep. Sarah Stevens praised the Mayberry solar farm project, saying, "We're becoming part of the future and that is sustainable energy," according to the Mt. Airy News report. "It will become a beacon for renewable energy growth in this region," added O2 Energies' founder and managing director Joel Olsen.
O2 Energies' solar power business is growing in North Carolina. It's team of solar system installers has grown to 22.
O2 also recently purchased several acres of land from a Christmas tree farmer in Avery, N.C., investing a couple of million dollars to build a grid-connected solar power farm that's now providing clean, renewable electrical power to 120-150 local homes.

I agree with your first two points, but as a Hackintosh user for the last 18 months, I would describe Apple's prevention activities towards the community as downright lackluster. Indifferent, even. I upgraded to 10.7 through the app store with a paid download. Using available tutorials/tools, I was surprised how painless it was (I installed 10.6 with a legitimately purchased install DVD). 10.6.X and 10.7.X upgrades are not exactly foolproof, but when something does go wrong, fixes usually involve an extension rollback. Point being, it could be a lot more difficult than it is.
I'm not sure why Apple hasn't taken a more active role against using OS X on non-compliant hardware, but the fact is that it does not require activation or verification (at least not at this time). Of course, such measures certainly do not prevent Windows 7 from being pirated. Perhaps Apple figures that there will always be those individuals who will find a way but that they are an acceptably small minority of users. Running a Hackintosh isn't exactly rocket science, but it's not stupid simple either; maybe this is enough of a roadblock to most people.
I get the impression that Apple don't especially care unless you are producing hackintosh clones and selling them commercially...
They don't really go out of their way to make OSX not work on non apple hardware, they just don't include drivers for anything other than the hardware they provide, and they require an EFI firmware (which isnt an apple only thing, other manufacturers are just much slower to move forward).
Apple has a lot of power, but I doubt you can find any examples where Apple wielded this power to go after Hackintosh owners. Did they even go after iOS jailbreakers?
PCs running OS X don't get intentionally disabled, sites offering how to make your own Hackintosh don't get letters from Apple, the LA police doesn't raid your house.
They're even pretty cool with their OS media. No install keys, no limit to the machines you can install it on and upgrade version are really full versions.
Well, Apple clearly expressed a desire for jailbreaking to be an offence prosecutable under DMCA (a quick bunch of links as always on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IOS_jailbreaking#United_States_legal_i... ) - now, why would they desire that, hm?...
(also Apple claimed, and court in Psystar case affirmed, that OSX has intentional technical measures to prevent hackintosh practices)
I really don't think that Apple give a crap what hardware you, as an individual, run Mac OS X on.
The only scenario where they do care is if somebody tries to commercially resell computers running Mac OS X.
Apple puts restrictions on their license to say "only run this on genuine Apple hardware" because they don't want to open themselves to having to offer support to people attempting to run OS X on non-Apple hardware.
Yes, there are technical hurdles to installing Mac OS X on non-Apple hardware. That's down to the fact that Apple doesn't need to support anything besides the hardware they have manufactured. That's not malice, just practical reality - they're not going to spend thousands of engineering hours to support hardware they've never shipped.
Apple has never bothered to put any kind of technological restrictions on the installation of Mac OS X. There has never been any copy protection or license codes. They are completely aware that Mac owners regularly and routinely "pirate" major updates of OS X. The only thing they have done to tackle this issue is to radically reduce the price of their OS upgrades.
History has clearly shown that Apple will do nothing at all to try to stop individuals from installing Mac OS X on non-Apple hardware.
Well said. My take on it is similar: Apple doesn't necessarily like that you put OS X on your generic PC, but they're not going to waste time and money trying to stop you. It's been my experience that Hackintoshers generally tend to already own at least one Mac, and even if they don't, they might eventually get frustrated with the whole process and buy the real thing.
Apple has mostly been a hardware vendor, writing great software in order to sell their hardware for profit. They also make lots of money from iTunes, which just so happens to run on their "competitor's" OS, and probably makes them more money than iTunes users on their own OS.
It's the Psystars of the world they want to quash, as they cut into one of Apple's real money makers: Hardware sales. Why buy a $3000 Mac Pro when you can get more or less equivalent performance for $1000 and still run OS X? That scares them, and they take action at that point. Again though, they never went after the Psystar customers, just the company itself.
Edited 2011-12-01 12:21 UTC
At least early machines, and OSX of their times, relied on TPM; IIRC.
And anyway, we have Apple themselves claiming there's a technological protection, falling under DMCA ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psystar_Corporation#Legal_issues even affirmed by court) - will you argue with them?

If you were to ask everyone what their favorite condiment would be, you would probably find a pretty nice split down the middle between mustard enthusiasts and ketchup enthusiasts. However, those that are big fans of ketchup will let you know it as they are typically going to be a little bit more proud of their obsession with ketchup than those that are big into mustard. This is just one of the main defining characteristics of ketchup and those that love it. And just like French mustard is the number one brand for mustard, it is Hunts ketchup that is the most popular brand among those that are big into ketchup. This could also be down to the fact that when you buy ketchup you will often be given the opportunity to use some nice coupons that are helpful in helping you save money.
Learning where to find Hunts Ketchup coupons is something that just about all ketchup enthusiasts are going to be interested in doing, as this allows them to buy their beloved ketchup but this time at a much discounted price. So that is precisely what we will be reviewing in this article as we talk about where to find Hunts Ketchup coupons. Although the act of finding coupons to use on Hunts Ketchup may be something that would sound like it takes a lot of time away from your schedule, you will be pleased to hear that it rarely takes very much time at all to find some good Hunts ketchup coupons.
First things first, you are going to want to get a computer with an Internet connection and a printer. This is because a good source for coupons would actually be the Internet, where you can find just about anything if you know where to look and what exactly it is that you are looking for. Once on the Internet you will want to check out the social networking pages for Hunts ketchup. Companies love when people follow their products on social networking sites, and as a result of this they are often rewarded by being given coupons to use on their products. Since a lot of us already have Facebook pages or twitter accounts, it really is as simple as going to their pages and clicking the like button.
Of course, we acknowledge the fact that the Internet is not always going to give you the best coupons. Don't let this get you down because there are actually other methods of getting your hands on some nice Hunts Ketchup coupons as well. One of these is by going down to your local grocery store and asking if they have any coupons books out at the moment. These little booklets often come with the newspaper or in the mail and they are usually filled up with great coupons to use on things just like Hunts Ketchup. Once you have found what you are looking for, it is as simple as cutting them out and taking them with you when shopping.

Thursday, Nov. 11, 2010 | 11:27 a.m.
The operator of the Fitzgeralds hotel-casinos in Las Vegas and around the country went to court Wednesday in hopes of shutting down a website it says is infringing on its trademarks.
Majestic Star Casino LLC filed suit in U.S. District Court in Las Vegas against companies it says operate the site www.fitzgeraldslasvegas.net, which Majestic Star says was registered in about March 2009 and has a name confusingly similar to Majestic Star's www.fitzgeraldslasvegas.com website.
Majestic Star, which has Fitzgeralds casinos in downtown Las Vegas; Tunica, Miss.; and Black Hawk, Colo., complained in the lawsuit that the defendants have diverted to their site Internet traffic looking for Majestic Star's authentic Fitzgeralds website.
The suit charges the defendants linked their website domain name to a site that offers online gambling and solicits business through an "online interactive gaming network.''
"By registering and using a domain name containing the Fitzgeralds marks, defendants were and are attempting to trade on the goodwill of Fitzgeralds resort hotels and casinos and Majestic Star,'' the lawsuit alleges.
The suit, filed by attorney John Krieger of the Las Vegas office of the law firm Lewis and Roca LLP, alleges trademark infringement, deceptive trade practices, cybersquatting and other counts.
The defendants are Hambledon N.V., Smart Answer S.A. and Susana Gonzales, all doing business in Panama, the lawsuit says. A message for comment was left with the defendants Thursday.

The NHL's third round is uncharted waters for the San Jose Sharks.
And the Calgary Flames haven't dipped a toe in this particular pool since 1989.
Much is similar between these Western Conference final foes. Aside from the Sharks earning a division crown and the No. 2 playoff seed, the differences are few and far between.
"They're a team very similar to ours in style of play," said Flames blueliner Robyn Regehr. "They have a lot of speed and they have great goaltending and they've been a great defensive team all year. It'll be a good challenge for our team."
"Two similar teams," agreed Flames veteran winger Dave Lowry. "Both are quick teams. Both are well-disciplined teams. And both teams have strong goaltending. So it's going to be a battle.
"I think the big thing is we have to focus on making sure we're ready."
What they'll need to be ready for is a patient series. The first team to blink might lose games -- and eventually the series -- simply because both the Flames and Sharks are so defensive-minded and are backstopped by top-notch goaltenders. Low-scoring games could, indeed, be in order with Evgeni Nabokov and Miikka Kiprusoff tending the twine.
"Yeah ... 1-0 games," said Flames veteran Martin Gelinas. "It'll be tight.
"They're one of the best defensive teams. We're going to have to create our opportunities. We'll have to battle."
At the other end, the battle is to thwart the triumvirate of Patrick Marleau, Vincent Damphousse and Niko Dimitrakos. The veteran Damphousse, a 1993 Stanley Cup champion with the Montreal Canadiens, leads the Sharks with 11 points. Dimitrakos leads all rookies with nine points, including eight assists. And Marleau is tied with Flames captain Jarome Iginla for goals (7) in these playoffs and, like Iginla, is among the most heralded young captains in the league.
"He's a top draft pick and a great talent," said Flames GM/head coach Darryl Sutter of his former budding star. "He has the opportunity to be a top player in the National Hockey League."
Fellow youngster Jonathan Cheechoo, with eight playoff points so far, and former Calgary Hitmen rearguard Brad Stuart, with five points, are also contributing offensively.
However, after combining for 139 points in the regular season, Nils Ekman, Alyn McCauley and Alexander Korolyuk have just four points between them in the post-season. Sniper Marco Sturm remains sidelined with a broken ankle.
Meanwhile, Mike Ricci, a Cup champ with the '96 Colorado Avalanche, is a clutch playoff performer, as is former Buffalo Sabres checker Curtis Brown.
"That team's got skill," Conroy said. "They've got that one line that's going great. We've got to shut it down.
"And all those other guys are working hard. So they've got four lines that can play and we've got four lines that can play."
The Sharks also have four defencemen who can play. Stuart helps anchor a solid foursome that boasts Scott Hannan, Kyle McLaren and veteran Mike Rathje. Just like the Flames, the blueline corps is young and improving.
And, just like the Flames, the Sharks have ousted a Cup favourite along the way.

My Nonprofit Reviews
Elaine Algeo
Review for MiraCosta College, Oceanside, CA, USA
We are pleased to offer our financial support to this foundation. The tireless work put into fundraising and the feedback from students who have been recipients of scholarships, plus seeing results first hand has been very rewarding. The college's theater department and its students are close to our hearts and we have earmarked some of our donations specifically to them. When we give to the foundation we know that our dollars go to an outstanding program and deserving students. We so appreciate that they keep us in the loop of what is going on at the college and give us many opportunities to support it in different ways. It is an honor to be part of what is going on at MiraCosta. We appreciate everyone who works at the foundation their time, effort and outreach.

Morgan County Middle School students learned the importance of being kind to each other and of taking a stand against bullying.
When asked if they've ever been bullied, if they have been a bully, or have been a bystander to someone being teased, almost no one raised their hands.
"That's something that I usually get because they don't want to raise their hand when others are looking but when they close their eyes and they think that no one else is looking, they will be honest and if you looked at the crowd when everyone closed their eyes, almost everybody's hand went up," said State Representative Marlene Anielski, the speaker at the event.
With the loss of her 18-year-old son Joseph who stood up against bullying, Anielski started the Ski Box Program; a way for students to speak up about being teased, being bullied or if they're having problems at home. Anielski believes reaching kids at a younger age is key and said she wants kids to enjoy life, not struggle through it.
"First of all, I want them to be a friend to themselves and also to other people and if there is something just not right on and you try to talk to someone and that's the first defense, talk to a trusted adult. But if you just can't do that and something's bothering you, write a note and drop it in the box and then some administrator at the school will be checking that daily to take some action."
Ski Boxes are in schools from kindergarten all the way up to college in Ohio, West Virginia and Tennessee. If you'd like to have Anielski come to your school to speak about bullying or would like a Ski Box for your school, you can contact her at email@example.com

okay - figured it out now. :)
The 'furring' you refer to might be 'pilling'? That's what I usually call it anyway. Little handcuffs of fibre that join two or more ends?
Inspection/repair is, I think, burling.
A great way to learn more textile words! I knew "pilling", but had not come across "burling" before.
"burling and mending"? - the words go together in my mind, but I can't remember why...
I spent a few months internship with a weaver producing fine mens silk suiting for the Paris runways, I spent much of my time inspecting and repairing the fabric, you would think I would remember "burling"
that a burl in yarn - a knot, slub or lump - is the same word for a lumpy knot in a tree trunk or branch? and burling is the removal of same. I know way too much trivia like this - not sure why. . .
Well, they are both 'fibre'! :^)
Somebody once referred to the "pilling" of wool when warping as "cuffing" - I cannot locate a resource for the term, is anybody else familiar with this?
Makes sense because it seems like they get handcuffed together. :)
If it isn't a 'proper' term, it ought to be!
Hi all,
According to the Dan River, Inc. "A Dictionary of Textile Terms", Danville, VA 24543:
Burling--Removal of loose threads, knots, slubs, burs, and other extraneous materials from fabrics by means of a burling iron, a tupe of tweezer. the trick is to remove the imprity without damaging the fabric.

Trails coalition official: Olympic Discovery Trail is a gem for the North Olympic Peninsula residents, tourism
By Joe Smillie

"I hate hearing that," said the co-president of the Peninsula Trails Coalition.
"Sure, you like having the trail to yourselves, but I want to see it packed."
Stevenson told the Sequim-Dungeness Valley Chamber of Commerce at its regular luncheon last week that more marketing of the trail that spans 130 miles from Port Townsend to La Push could be a boon for the North Olympic Peninsula's economy.
"This is a world class facility," he said at Tuesday's meeting. "If we went out with a more bike-friendly message and had more services to bring to the trail-using crowd, we could produce a ton of benefit to the local tourism economy."
He called for more tour guides, services that would shuttle riders' luggage to lodges ahead and food and lodging services along the trail to capture the "affluent" bike crowds.
Shell Robb-Kahler, director of the chamber, said bicyclists riding the Olympic Discovery Trail make up a large percentage of the people who stop at the chamber's visitor center in east Sequim.
Gov. Jay Inslee recently rode the Olympic Discovery Trail from Port Townsend to Port Angeles with 250 members of the Puget Sound Bicycle Club.
Stevenson also spoke about the difficulties in completing the trail.
The coalition works with 14 different jurisdictions — including cities, counties, federal agencies and tribes — to secure rights-of-way for the trail.
As it is now, only 54 miles of the route is completed with adequate pavement.
Another 25 miles of the trail covers county and city road shoulders, while 50 miles covers highways like U.S. Highway 101 around Discovery Bay that is only fit for experienced cyclists, said Stevenson, who rides more than 6,000 miles by bicycle annually around the world.
"We still have a long way to go," he said.
He pointed to three main gaps in the trail: The Joyce Gap, where there's no trail from the Elwha River to Lake Crescent; the Jefferson Gap, from 4 Corners to Gardiner; and the West End Gap, where the trail is lacking from Lake Pleasant to La Push.
"They're right in the middle of the trail," he said of the gaps.
The Jefferson Gap, he said, is particularly difficult because the trail runs east-west and Jefferson County's population is primarily situated on a north-south line, starting with the county seat in Port Townsend and running down through Port Hadlock and Port Ludlow.
"I'm glad to see the Port Townsend trails folks are here," he said at the chamber meeting, which was attended by members of the Port Townsend Bicycle Association.
This June, a 7-mile leg of the trail was completed between the Camp Creek and Mount Muller trailheads off U.S. Highway 101 in the Sol Duc River valley.
