Reeves, Daniel (1754 SC - 1824 TN)
Reeves, Daniel
SummaryFather: John Reeves
Mother: Nancy
Birth: 10 Oct 1754, South Carolina probably Lancaster County (described as above Camden in RW pension statement)
Birth Source: RW Pension File W6587
Death: 28 Aug 1824, Davidson County, Tennessee
Death Source: RW Pension File W6587
Spouse1: Ellenor Guthrie, 17 Mar 1779, South Carolina
NarrativeThere is no county in South Carolina identified in the pension file of Daniel Reeves as being his home when he volunteered for service in the Revolutionary War; however, he joined the 3rd Regiment South Carolina Continental Line a month after it was established according to his statement in 1819. Research of the 3rd Regiment indicates that it was composed of volunteers from the area of the western frontier of South Carolina and was organized in the Old 96th District in June of 1775. Further research has led to the belief that Daniel's home had been in the area of Lancaster/Chester counties of SC.
Daniel Reeves received a warrant for 300 acres of land in Wilkes County, Georgia, in 1787; he was taxed there in 1794 with 263 acres in Pistol Creek joining Thomas Hooper.
William Reeves of Smith County Tennessee gave testimony in support of Ellenor Reeves' widows application stating that he was the brother of Daniel Reeves and that Daniel was about 15 years older than himself. He remembered his brother coming home wounded from one of the battles during the revolution and that he was shot through the abdomen and also his arms were wounded with a sword. After being wounded, he was taken prisoner but was left in their neighborhood. William stated that the home of their father was at that time some miles above Camden which would indicate their home was probably in Lancaster County.
In January of 1819, Jesse Reeves of Maury County, Tennessee gave a deposition in support of Daniel Reeves' revolutionary war pension stating that he and Daniel were cousins and that their families lived near to each other. Again in 1846 when he was living in Lauderdale, Alabama, Jesse Reeves gave testimony supporting Ellenor Reeves' widow's pension. He recalled that Daniel had become engaged to marry Ellenor Guthrie before his enlistment. Ellenor was an orphan girl and lived with a near relation, Mr. Land, who was a close neighbor. Daniel Reeves and Ellenor Guthrie were married at the house of Mr. Land and on next day took dinner at the house of this Jesse's father because Daniel did not like his step mother, the 2nd wife of his father who also lived in the neighborhood. The same cause of dislike made Daniel Reeves leave his wife at the house of Jesse Reeves' father after his furlough while he went back and served out the balance of his time as a soldier in the revolultion.
From the Revolutionary War pension file of Daniel Reeves, the children of Daniel and Ellenor Guthrie Reeves were:
- Daniel Reeves? was born March the 2 day 1781
- William Reeves? was born May the 25th day 1783
- James Reeves born October the 10th day 1784 (birth year corrected in statement of 14 Apr 1838 from RW pension file)
- Elijah Reeves was born February 20th day 1786
- Elisha Reeves was born August 20th day 1788
- Sarah Reeves "Salley", was born May the 15th day 1791, m. Hosea Chesser
- Nancy Reeves was born February 27 day 1794, m. Simpkins
- Elender Reeves was born November the 6th day 1796, m. John Davis
- Hannah Reeves (Anne) was born July the 8th day 1799, m. Aquila Price

What she does have is hypochondria. Jenny Traig's inquiry into her ailment is not only an uproariously funny account but also a literary tour of hypochondria, past and present: the implied hypochondria of the Talamud, the flatulence-obsessed 18th century, and the malady's current unfortunate lack of a celebrity spokesperson.
At the same time, Traig provides an intimate look at the complement of minor conditions that have concealed her essential health and driven her persistent self-diagnosis: the eczema, the shaky hands, and, worst of all, the bad hair.

"Was a waste of my aubible credit"
I love memoirs, but this book was not a true memoir. Instead it was random facts, history, and on a very rare occasion a story from her past about hypochondria. I want to hear someone's story, not the history of the disease. This was a complete waste of my audible credits.
"Funny and interesting."
This book is well narrated and easy to listen to. Informative and interesting as well as funny, the subject surprisingly entertaining. Highly recommended for people who like non-fiction that teaches and entertains.

Doctor Shortage Sends Hospitals to War
Timothy Crowley, MD, told the Boston Globe that he was joking when he left a voicemail for a physician recruiter at a rival hospital: "You don't want to go to war with me. I'll take everything you got and everything you love and kill it."
Crowley's jest, which cost him his job when executives at Caritas Christi Health Care got wind of it, may have revealed more truth about the competitiveness of physician recruitment today than he realized.
Crowley left the voicemail after James Blakely, a recruiter for Mount Auburn Hospital, "fired the first shot" by trying to woo three Caritas physicians earlier in the year. According to the Globe report, the two were longtime friends and had once worked together, so the voicemail was intended as a "light-hearted joke." But the competition for physicians was very real, and neither hospital approached the situation with a sense of humor.
Competition for physicians is nothing new—hospitals in tough markets frequently try to steal away top surgeons or specialists from each other, particularly if doing so will boost a high-priority service line. But Mount Auburn and Caritas went to war over three primary care physicians, not specialists, and that may reflect the recruitment battlefield of the future.
The convergence of physician shortages and efforts to expand medical coverage is making recruitment more difficult, and more of a necessity, particularly in primary care.
How can we provide coverage for nearly 40 million more Americans with the physician workforce already strained in many areas? That problem may ultimately prove trickier to solve than many of the hot-button issues that are getting so much political attention today.
Massachusetts is an important bellwether. Although the state's healthcare plan is frequently maligned by opponents of healthcare reform, it has been fairly successful at expanding coverage (97% of the population is insured) without letting costs spiral out of control. And so far, no death panels.
The big obstacle for the state, however, is a shortage of physicians. A 2008 report found that 12 of 18 specialties in Massachusetts were in short supply, and shortages in family practice and internal medicine were critical.

This reminded me of another option. Lately I have been using one layer of 88 and another layer of rubber fusion tape. This is the tape used to seal the fiberglass joints on a SteppIR Yagi. I purchased my tape off the Internet. So far it has been holding up quite nicely. 73, Keith NM5G -----Original Message----- From: firstname.lastname@example.com [mailto:firstname.lastname@example.com] On Behalf Of JC Smith Sent: Thursday, August 10, 2006 3:18 PM To: firstname.lastname@example.com; email@example.com; email@example.com Subject: Re: [TowerTalk] Rotor connector waterproofing? You could use Scotch 88 then Scotchcote then another layer of 88. I did that to "repair" (more like "replace"... they were really shot) the plastic trap caps on an old HyGain tribander and it's still good after 10+ years.

Looking ahead to a big 2012 for the Sox
Red Sox fans will be happy to see 2011 end.
The Greatest Team Ever finished in third place and were such a bunch of clods that manager Terry Francona called them out in public before quitting.
Then general manager Theo Epstein fled the premises, covering his tracks by saying it was his plan all along to leave his hometown, family and friends behind to go work for … the Cubs?
The brain trust sprang into action, taking two months to hire a manager after telling their new GM he had no money to spend.
The good news is 2012 is upon us. Here's what to expect:
Jan. 2: Red Sox announce 10-year, $250 million deal for Prince Fielder to play right field. "What, you really thought we were out of money?" GM Ben Cherington said. "Have you seen how many tourists line up to pay $12 for those Fenway Park tours?"
Jan. 21: Red Sox and Cubs finalize compensation for Epstein. In lieu of any players going to Boston, he will personally call every season ticket holder and apologize for signing John Lackey.
Feb. 11: Truck Day is canceled. Get-a-lifers are asked to go about their business rather than stand on a side street in the cold and watch a rented truck get loaded with baseball equipment. "If you really find that exciting, go hang around the loading docks at Dick's Sporting Goods," chief operating officer Sam Kennedy said in a statement.
Feb. 19: Pitchers and catchers report to spring training. Josh Beckett agrees to talk to Bobby Valentine, but only on Tuesdays from 2-2:15 p.m.
March 3: Red Sox defeat Northeastern 10-0 as Carl Crawford hits three home runs and steals two bases. Reveals afterward that one of Tampa Bay's six fans, an 86-year-old palm reader from Pinellas Park, had put a curse on him last year.
April 5: Sox beat Detroit 1-0 as Jacoby Ellsbury homers in ninth inning to beat Justin Verlander. Scott Boras says Ellsbury is agreeable to a contract extension of 12 years and $300 million along with 12 percent of all Mass Pike revenue.
April 20: Red Sox beat Yankees 4-3. Alex Rodriguez, hitless so far on the season, flies to China with his cousin after the game to have an experimental treatment on his sore knee suggested by Lakers star Metta World Peace. "Hopefully he'll be back soon," GM Brian Cashman says. "OK, I'm lying."
May 10: New NESN sideline reporter Mila Kunis leaves the network to return to Hollywood. Heidi Watney makes her triumphant return.
May 13: Liverpool loses its final match of the season to Swansea City and is eliminated from the English Premier League playoffs.
May 14: The Liverpool Echo newspaper reveals that manager Kenny Dalglish lost control of the Reds during the season. Players were eating pork pies during games while drinking Guinness. "This is all news to me," says John Henry. "We'll look into it."
May 19: Red Sox beat Phillies 2-1 when Jonathan Papelbon hits Kelly Shoppach with the bases loaded in the ninth inning. The closer says later he doesn't like pitching in Philadelphia. "The cops here won't fist-bump me when I come out of the bullpen," he says. "They're too busy arresting fans."
June 3: Former Red Sox manager Terry Francona is suspended by ESPN for week after cursing six times in one sentence then spitting a wad of bubble gum and tobacco on the foot of Linda Cohn, ruining her Jimmy Choos. "Aw (bleep), I'm (bleeping) sorry," Francona says.
June 17: Red Sox complete three-game sweep of the Cubs at Wrigley Field as Prince Fielder drives in 12 runs. Those Cubs fans still sober enough to run chase Epstein down West Addison Street. "But Hoyer is the GM," he yells.
June 30: Bobby Valentine takes a leave of absence to run the International Monetary Fund and prevent the collapse of the European economy. Tim Bogar becomes interim manager.
July 12: With the All-Star break over, Daisuke Matsuzaka is asked how close he is to returning to the team. "It should be any month now," he says through a translator. "I'm ready to look at the mound and think about pitching."
July 16: Red Sox announce that "Sweet Caroline" has been scrapped in favor of "Baby Got Back" by Sir Mix-A-Lot. Angry Pink Hats vow to protest at halftime before somebody reminds them there is no halftime in baseball.
Aug. 1: Tim Wakefeld appeals to Major League Baseball to allow Boston Park League victories to count toward his career win total.
Aug. 15: Valentine returns, Bogar having led the Red Sox into first place. New Yawkey Way sports bar "Timmy B's" is the hottest spot in town.
Aug. 21: Adrian Gonzalez hits 30th home run. Gives all the credit to Tim Tebow.
Sept. 7: Jon Lester throws one-hit shutout against the Blue Jays. Between innings, he also beats Beckett and Clay Buchholz in Angry Birds.
Sept. 15: Dustin Pedroia named team captain. Immediately gains respect of teammates by calling time out in the seventh inning, going to the mound and kicking the crap out of Andrew Miller after he walks three batters in a row.
Sept. 30: Red Sox finish September 20-6 with a victory in Baltimore. MVP lock Carl Crawford drives in his 123rd run. Andrew Bailey picks up his 37th save with help from comeback player of the year Bobby Jenks.
Oct. 1: Red Sox clinch pennant with a 4-1 victory at New York. Nick Punto drives in three runs in support of Junichi Tazawa, who records his 15th win. "Who's methodical now?" crows Cherington in the winning clubhouse.
Oct. 9: Red Sox complete first-round playoff sweep of the Angels. Right fielder Ryan Kalish makes two leaping catches to steal home runs away from Albert Pujols. "I owe it all to the crack Red Sox medical staff," Kalish says later.
Oct. 18: Red Sox win the pennant with four-game sweep of the Texas Rangers. In his first appearance of the season, John Lackey outduels Yu Darvish. "It's fun to win for the supportive fans in Boston," Lackey says.
Nov. 1: Red Sox claim their third World Series in nine years with a seven-game thriller against the surprise New York Mets. Clay Buchholz beats Johan Santana in Game 7 as Valentine tops his old team.
"Can you believe it?" say Joe Castiglione after Bailey gets the final out. "If your windshield is broken in a Kenmore Square riot, call 1-800-54-GIANT."
Nov. 2: Davis Ortiz tells Enrique Rojas of ESPN Deportes that he is upset the Red Sox have not offered him a contract for 2013. "I just woke up, give me a second," Cherington says.
Nov. 3: Matsuzaka announces he's ready to pitch. He is shocked to learn the season is over.
Nov. 4: Duck Boat parade draws millions of happy fans to Boston. "We're all proud of the Red Sox. Especially Dustin Youkilis and Jacoby Saltalamacchia," says Mayor Menino.
So there you have it. Get your tickets now.
Happy New Year, gang. thanks for reading and here's looking forward to a good 2012 for everybody. I'm on vacation for two weeks starting tomorrow. Nick and the crew will have you covered.

An expansion of the San Diego Convention Center doesn't necessarily need to go on the bayfront site officials first identified, a co-chairman of a new mayoral task force studying the idea said yesterday.
Convention Center officials proposed a 500,000-square-foot expansion on land adjacent to the current bayfront site, saying visitors shouldn't have to leave the building.
But San Diego Port Commission Chairman Steve Cushman, co-chairman of Mayor Jerry Sanders' task force, doesn't share that view.
Cushman said an open mind is needed, even pointing to the land across the street, where a 1,900-room Marriott convention hotel was once planned. "I don't know if that would have a role," he said.
Cushman also noted that San Francisco's Moscone Center has two underground convention halls and an aboveground one across the street.
"There is no question that everything is on the table," he said. "There is a site behind the Convention Center, but any sites within that proximity would certainly be on the table."
Sanders announced the creation of his 17-member task force yesterday to look at what he said would likely be a $1 billion expansion, including a new bayfront hotel and a water taxi.
He didn't take a position on the location.
"It has to be right around that area. One site is tied up, but there may be others," Sanders said. "I would expect this group would present their recommendations on what works best. I don't want to predetermine any conclusions."
In September, the Convention Center's nonprofit board unveiled a plan to add up to 500,000 square feet. That would double the size of the current facility, which the board says is operating at capacity.
The location the board identified was alongside half of the existing building, on the bay side. The proposal also calls for a new hotel, which possibly could generate revenue to help fund the center expansion. Sanders has said no new general-fund money can be used.
Carol Wallace, the Convention Center's chief executive officer, said that several years ago the city's downtown redevelopment agency had identified six sites, but that all but two have now been discounted.
One is the site that convention officials proposed, and it's the only one that's contiguous with the existing building. The other is across the railroad tracks, Wallace said.
"As we work with the task force, we're presenting options for both of those sites," she said. But, she added, "It does need to be contiguous."
Sanders is asking the task force to evaluate the market demand for a San Diego expansion, identify financing options and report back by September. All task force meetings will be open to the public, city officials said. The first meeting will in early February.
Yesterday Cushman made it clear that it's unlikely the Port District would contribute cash toward the estimated $1 billion price tag. The port wrote a check for the original Convention Center, completed in 1989.
Cushman's co-chair is outgoing Convention Center board Chairwoman Cheryl Kendrick. Other members announced yesterday include Mark Steele, a San Diego architect; Lorena Gonzalez, secretary-treasurer of the San Diego-Imperial Counties Labor Council; Centre City Development Corp. Chairman Fred Maas; and San Diego County Taxpayers Association President Lani Lutar.
Other task force members are Richard Bartell, Susan Baumann, Charles Black, Gordon Boerner, Bill Evans, Pete Garcia, Bill Geppert, Mike McDowell, Vince Mudd, Bob Nelson and Diane Takvorian.

text: Cruise Extended families a continued growth market for cruise lines By Johanna Jainchill / January 16, 2014 Share 1 -- NEW YORK — More than half of Carnival Cruise Lines' bookings are for multiple cabins, as multigenerational travel continues to surge. Speaking at CLIA's annual State of the Cruise Industry event on Thursday, Jim Berra, chairman of the CLIA marketing committee and Carnival's chief marketing officer, said more than half of Carnival's 1.9 million reservations last year were for multiple cabins. "That's most often family," he said. "The age dispersion is becoming more pronounced — there are more seniors cruising, and also more kids."Noting this was an industry-wide trend, Berra said cruise lines are "extremely well-positioned" to continue attracting these passengers, but that it could do a lot more to cater to families. For example, he noted that while water slides are geared toward young people, the cruise line has to consider making places for grandparents to sit in the shade and watch their grandchildren use them. Berra said that beyond families, the industry is targeting millennials (customers in their late teens and 20s), which at 95 million outstrip the 78 million baby boomers that get so much attention. He said that creating technology allowing millennials to stay connected and use social media on vacation was part of that focus. To do that, cruise lines are continuing to invest in faster, more cost-efficient WiFi. "It's a connected consumer today, and while many may want to get off the grid, the reality is many are going to need to be connected," he said. Berra said the cruise lines are developing apps that will let passengers know what's happening onboard and let them communicate with people they meet on the ships, without accruing roaming charges.Berra already knows that customers are using mobile phones to research and book cruises, at least at Carnival, where mobile users now account for more than 20% of traffic at CCL.com. "More than 60% of our email correspondence is opened on a smartphone," Berra said. "The number of bookings is small, but we have built a mobile booking engine."Follow Johanna Jainchill on Twitter @jjainchilltw.Family vacation photo courtesy of Shutterstock.com.

How to Write a Lab Report
Oct 04, 2012 - Posted to
Writing in General
Lab reports are a daunting task for many, especially if you are writing it for the first time. There is no two ways about the fact that science reports require special skills on your part, as you need to follow a specific format; needless to mention, you also need to present and interpret data in a specific layout. If you want to come up with a decent lab report, then you must take some time to learn and employ an appropriate scientific style in your lab reports.
Irrespective of how your experiment, it is possible to write a decent laboratory report. To
write a good lab report
, you must follow the following:
Your instructor is more likely to help you with a style and formatting guide that you need to follow down to a T. As you begin to organize your thoughts and data for the lab report and start writing simple and clear sentences, you will also get a clearer understanding of the scientific experiment.
However, if you have not being any specific format by your instructor, then you can follow the standard format given below:
Title and Author(s)
This page includes the title of the laboratory report as well as the author details.
Since most scientific writing is dense, abstract plays a very significant role in writings such as lab reports, especially as it facilitates readers with a crisp and concise summary of the whole report, and thus rousing the interest of readers. For people or students who are looking for relevant material, going through the abstract helps them know if the lab report is relevant to their search or not. In simpler words, an abstract is a terse summary of the entire lab report and is about three to six sentences in length. In most laboratory reports, the abstract follows the page in which the title and the list of authors are printed. However, in some lab reports, you can also find the abstract immediately below the title and the list of authors of the lab report.
When it comes to the structure of the abstract, it simply follows the layout of the lab report, i.e. introduction, experimental design, analysis and conclusion. It is highly recommended that students write the abstract after completion of the main body of the lab report as abstract is more or less a summary of the whole report.
More often than not, a reader goes through the introduction of a laboratory report to get more information on the motivation or the method of experiment. It must me mentioned here that the most important function of a lab report's introduction is to help the reader with information on the solution that is sought by the experiment. In addition, it should also help the reader with information on what makes this experiment interesting, and this can be done easily by facilitating readers with a succinct picture of your experiment's purpose as well as a broad survey of your approach. Almost always, a good introduction will also have a brief summary of the experimental method used by you.
Material and Methods (Experimental)
This section can further be divided into two sub-sections:
The Theory Section
The theory section is very crucial to any lab report as it helps the readers with the technical background to the working of the experiment in hand. It also helps readers with the assumptions made as well as the relativity between the experiment and the science that is being studied. In case of very simple experiments where the correlation between the measurements and the theory are obvious, this section of the lab report can be very short or non-existent. On the contrary, if the experiment is quite complex in nature and if the measurements are discursively related to the results, then the theory section of the lab report needs to be written in an elaborate manner to facilitate better understanding. If there are any equations involved in your experiments, they need to be mentioned in this section of your lab report. It is also important that you display each equation in a separate line and that you number the equations appropriately in this section.
The Procedure Section
Before starting with the writing of the procedure section, you must realize that the intention of this section is to convince the readers that you have conducted the experiment with utmost precision and expertise so that your readers take the results of your experiment seriously. First and foremost, the procedure section of your lab report must facilitate the readers with a schematic diagram of the experimental setup. It should also, very clearly, include a sketch and description of all the equipment that are used in the experiment. You should unfailingly mention all the measurements in an orderly manner. If you had to depart from the procedures mentioned in the lab manual at any stage of the experiment, then you should unfailingly mention it in the procedure section of your lab report; needless to mention, you should also mention the necessity to stray away from the stated procedures. The procedure section should also include the descriptions of all the steps that are taken to reduce experimental ambiguity.
Results or the Analysis Section
This section should ideally begin with the data, including linearized as well as Cartesian graphs used, if any. It should discuss the theoretical estimates in detail and should also mention any discrepancies in the theory. If there are linear graphs involved in your experiment, then this section should elaborate on the method that was employed to calculate the slope and the intercept. It should also mention all the calculations or quantities that are derived from the slope or intercept. The results section should discuss all the possible uncertainties, results as well as their implications.
In the discussion section of your lab report, you should try to assess the results by taking all the problems and errors into account. It should answer all the crucial questions such as did the predicted hypothesis was supported by the experiment or not. This section should also compare the results of your experiment with the already published literature.
Conclusions and Recommendations
This section of your laboratory report should be a terse summary of all the conclusions that have been made during the course of your experiment and should also specify future recommendations, if any.
References (or Literature Cited)
Like in any other form of academic writing, you must give credit to the ideas of others in lab reports, as otherwise it will be considered as plagiarism. At the end of the report, you should give detailed information on any literature cited by you in the report. You should cite all the
references in APA style
. Authors should be mentioned in alphabetical order and the second and third lines should be indented.
If you want your lab report to be accurate and interesting, then you must prepare an outline of important points before you actually start the writing process. If done with dedication, your experiment and lab report may outlive you, and hence you should try and do an immaculate job on it.

Network security firm Palo Alto Networks is beefing up its offerings today with the $200 million acquisition of Cyvera, whose technology senses and protects networks from potentially damaging zero-day exploits — named after the fact that we see them for the first time when a hacker decides to employ them.
Palo Alto Networks is best known for its powerful firewall and cloud threat detection service, which handles the vast majority of threats on networks. But for more advanced zero-day attacks, it needed something more.
"The composition of today's cyber attacks typically involves three stages: identify a new vulnerability, employ a technique to exploit that vulnerability, and use that vulnerability to then launch malware and ultimately take control of the endpoint," the company wrote in a blog post today. "Each year … thousands of new vulnerabilities emerge. And with millions of new malware instances found each year that increasingly are capable of evading existing controls, traditional security approaches simply aren't effective. A new approach is required."
Cyvera's technology will ultimately protect Palo Alto Networks' customers from attacks that aren't widely known by detecting the way hackers exploit networks. Those sorts of attacks typically elude security software, since security firms haven't had a chance to dig into what makes them tick.
Isreal-based Cyvera raised $11 million from Blumberg Capital, Battery Ventures, and others. The deal is expected to close in the second half of this fiscal year.

Her Ugaritic name was Anat and to the Greeks, she was known as Aphrodite. With that all being said, she prefers Astaroth or Ishtar, Ishtar being her favorite of the two.
The best time to perform a ritual for
Astaroth is during December 31st through January 9th.
Candle colour: brown or green
Astaroth most active during the day.
Like Enki and Enlil, she has been with
humanity from the very beginning. Astaroth is also Enlil's
granddaughter. Her parents are Ningal and Nanna. She
has been known as a 'Goddess of love and war' and also as the
'Goddess of fertility' to ancient cultures. Easter (originally known as "Ishtar"), was stolen and warped by christianity.
She is known as a powerful warrior and her sacred animal is the lion.
answers truly concerning the past, present, and future. She discovers
all secrets, and is an excellent teacher of the liberal sciences. She
causes one to have prophetic dreams or visions about the future and
gives insight into the unknown. She also councils humans who are close
to Enki and actively working for him.
Astaroth is a guidance counselor for both her fellow Elders and humans.
Priest Shadderfer describes Astaroth to be a stunning blond, around 6
foot 5 in height, with blue eyes and a very compassionate nature. She is a founder
of new and daring musical styles and a great patron of the arts. She is
also stern with her directions and vastly helpful with solving problems and getting through tough situations.
Her sigil is as follows:

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for Leadership Initiatives, Washington , DC, USA
I have been involved with Leadership Initiatives for the past two years, and have been familiar with the organization for the past four years. I was first introduced to Leadership Initiatives when my older brother was involved with the organization, working to raise money for the "Water for Nigeria" project. His group raised enough money to build a water purification facility in Bauchi State, Northern Nigeria. After seeing how my brother was able to help a deprived community through Leadership Initiatives, I knew I wanted to somehow be involved. I was then fortunate enough to be asked by Marshall Bailly, the Executive Director, to be the group leader of the Fish for Freedom project. As the group leader, I am now able to be a part of some of the incredible projects that Leadership Initiatives is involved with.
While working with Leadership Initiatives, I have been privileged enough to work with those who need the help the most. Our group project is focused on providing affordable fish to the people of Birshi State in Nigeria, and we are currently in the midst of raising money to help expand the fish farming program into other areas of the state. In doing so, we are helping regions that have been severely depleted of crucial nutrients for years, specifically quality protein and Vitamin B.
My work with Leadership Initiatives has been occasionally interrupted by the actions of political and religious extremists throughout Nigeria. Leadership Initiatives' ability to overcome the constant adversity faced each day by these extremists is truly remarkable. It is a well run organization and repeatedly completes projects that have a lasting impact on many less fortunate communities in Nigeria. I am proud to be a part of this respected organization, and I anticipate further growth of their humanitarian efforts.

Unanswered: Sending parameter to query via vb - possible?
Originally I had a form that passed a variable to the Query via 'Me!fromTime' on the form to 'Forms![testing]![fromTime]'.
I now want to launch an acSendReport based on the query but launching from a Module.
How can the query reference the modules parameter now it's not launching from a form. The 'Forms![testing]![fromTime] no longer works.

One way is to use the module as criteria for the query.
The other way is to copy the SQL Statement behind the query into code. Personally I prefer this method.

Thanks for that.
How would I go about using the module as criteria for the query?
I know how to reference the variable via the form, but how do I reference to the module?
Any help would be appreciated.

Alaska offers some of the best fisheries in the world
No, November isn't the best time for a sportsman to venture north to Alaska for sport fishing, although many do combine a bear hunting trip with some fishing. There are a great many varieties of salmon available in Alaska's waters, along with the best for meals, the halibut. Salmon is the most sought after, however, with some varieties considered to be superior to others.
We have made four trips to Alaska, and we fished on three of these occasions. The best one of course was cruising the inland waterways from Vancouver, BC, Canada, to Anchorage. This was the trip that we took with George Disse and the late Gene Johnson. Gene had won this $11,000 week-long trip in a national contest.
It was on this trip that we learned there are a considerable number of varieties of salmon in these waters. The top of the line, however, is the king (chinook) salmon. Nobody will name any other to top this king, red salmon. The fish has a grey back and silver sides, lives in deep water, but is hatched in swift running freshwater streams. The King salmon is occasionally taken at over 100 pounds, but are more often a bit below that. On our voyage, now more than a decade ago, we caught this prize at 40 to 60 pounds, and we did it several times a day. The halibut, a delight on the dinner table on our yacht, ran 35 to 75 pounds regularly, but we saw others with halibut that would weigh in at 100 pounds or more. Halibut is on a restricted take from commercial fishermen, as the species has been over-fished, with Japanese crews having been a bit cavalier for years and fished halibut down to dangerous levels.
After chinook, sockeye (red) salmon is considered very good. Coho, or silver salmon are common in Alaska waters, with pink salmon and chum (dog) salmon completing the list of the six varieties in the state's waters.
Sockeye (red) salmon is a great fish and sport angling boats a lot of these. Most visiting sportsmen buy the seasonal license for $100, but you could fish for a week on a license costing but $30 if you wish.
Rainbow and steelhead trout are leaders in stream fishing, along with steelhead and lake trout. These run big and angling for them is a popular venture in Alaska.
Alaska fishing is one thing that you must strive to participate in, at least once in a lifetime. Alaska is easy to reach and is a delight in many ways. Be certain to buy yourself an ulu knife, or several for friends. The ulu knife makes a great memento of a sensational fishing trip to our forty-ninth state.
Names & prices of the exotic non-toxic shot shells
When I've visited with local duck hunters I've found that many aren't aware of the names and brands of exotic non-toxic shells. Here's the lowdown:
Kent's fasteel is their super speed loads at over 1,600 fps. Their cost is about as low as you can get at $15 a box of 25 shells. The Winchester offering is their Xtended range hi-density loads, also at high density of 1,550 and a cost of $33 for 25, but devastating performance. Federal's Black Cloud pellets aren't round in shape, but they're killers. They cost $29 and are great performers. Remington's load is their Wingmaster HD, also priced at $29. Hevi-Shot is perhaps the top performer. Now sold direct to hunters from the Oregon factory, I've found them to be deadly. It's my favorite at $33 for a box of just ten shells. Each manufacturer also offers standard steel shot loads at much lower prices. Most of the exotic non-toxic loads are a combination of tungsten-iron-bronze-tin alloy combinations. They do perform but they cost important money.
The NRA and the election
The National Rifle Association didn't surprise anyone with its vigorous condemnation of Senators Obama and Joe Biden. The organization's magazines and television spots have thoroughly acquainted members and the general public of the Democratic candidates positions on gun issues.
Senator John McCain is profiled as the pro-gun guy. Actually, Senator McCain isn't a hunter, although he's said that, "I occasionally will wet a line." Of course, Alaska Governor Sarah Palin has been featured with an over-under shotgun on her shoulder. Actually, she really does hunt and has taken all heads of her state's big game and hunted extensively in several western states.
The NRA had a special series of TV ads made up for the voters of North Dakota and many were aired over Fargo stations. Not every member of the NRA is going to vote for McCain, or make this a single issue election. You need to balance your ideas and beliefs, considering all issues. But on sportsmens' issues, environment, clean water act and others, McCain does have a voting record the NRA approves of. Each of us has his own values on every issue confronting America. The new president is going to be faced with many tremendous challenges, and whether you and I have guns may not be one of the top concerns.
Firearms deer season opens Nov. 8
The firearms deer season opens next Sat., Nov. 8. The zones have been changed, and it is suggested that you carefully read and understand the regulations as printed in the free hunting manual that is free at your license agent. A good harvest is expected, however, the early antlerless season in far northwestern Minnesota has seen some does taken, but fewer than had been expected. Due to some lousy weather, the hunting pressure has been light. The kill zone is #101 and is in Roseau and Beltrami Counties.
Lead free venison
We've been warned that our bullets may contaminate our venison with flecks of lead. There are several things that a hunter can do. First of all, if you process your deer at home, cut generously around all of the meat around the wound channel. Discard this.
Select your processor carefully if you have the deer cut up and frozen by a commercial butcher shop. Instruct him that you will not grouse about losing a few pounds of meat. Use premium bullets, the kind with the non-lead cores. Yes, they cost more, but it does give you some additional assurance that your meat will be free of toxic lead. And, give some of the packages of steaks and chops to the food bank. Be sure that the processor prepares your meats, and doesn't toss everyone's deer into a communal pile.

wikiHow to Play the Very Organized Thief
The Very Organized Thief is a tense PC game that's all about robbing someone's house. It can be tricky to try at first. However, with some simple guidelines, you can quickly progress your skill level!
1Learn the controls. This step might seem obvious, but it is still important to have a good understanding of the keystrokes required to work the game properly. Here is a breakdown of the default controls:
- WASD to move
- Space to interact with objects
- E to toggle flashlight
- Q to view checklist
- Left Shift to run
- Left Ctrl to crouch.
2Develop a plan. Look at your checklist and think about the locations of all the items. Try to do as much as you can downstairs before going upstairs.
3Learn the locations of all the loot-able items. The best way to do this is with practice.
- Some objects, like the diamond ring, have many locations in which they can spawn. Others, like the bicycle, have only one location.
4Turn off the alarm. In the room between the kitchen and the garage, there is a box with three wires. Severing the blue wire turns off the alarm for the safe upstairs.
- The green wire is for electricity in the house. Cutting it turns off the electricity. This is optional.
- The red wire activates the alarm. It should not be cut unless the blue wire has been severed.
5Find the office key and enter the office. The office key has many spawn points, including the end table in the family room, the couch in the living room, the end table in the master bedroom, the dining room table and more.
6Get the code to the safe in the top office drawer. Once you have the code, you can open the safe and get the gold bar as well as the many stacks of money.
- The code changes every time, so be wary of this.
7Be prepared for if the owner arrives at home. The owner comes home four minutes into each round (or earlier if the alarm is set off). The clock will chime at about two minutes in, allowing you to judge what you can and should do in the remaining time.
- Holding an item in front of you and/or crouching will sometimes hide you from the owner, and he will go away.
8Escape! Once you have all the items you need, or the owner has arrived at home, you can leave the house. There are two exits - the front door and the garage door. Once you leave, you will be told your ranking and the worth in dollars of the items you stole.
Community Q&A
How long is it until she gets home?The owner arrives four minutes into each round. The grandfather clock will chime about two minutes into the game.
How do I open doors?wikiHow ContributorFace the door you wish to open and press the space bar. Some doors are locked (office door) and require a key.
How do you open the garage door?wikiHow ContributorYou cannot open the green garage door, but you can open the brown one if the owner is home and/or you have stolen everything on your list.
Ask a Question
200 characters leftSubmit
- You can hide in the closets if the owner comes home.
- The lights can give you a good indication of which room the owner is in when he is at home.
- Getting all the items on your list and leaving before the owner gets home will usually earn you the title of "Very Organized Thief".
- Never cut the red wire unless and until the blue wire is cut. Doing so will make the owner come home early.

VIDEO: Violent Union Thugs Using Ball Bat on Effigy of SC Gov. Nikki Haley!
- Share
- Tweet
- Comment Now 0
Here we have another union thug acting out a desire for violence. This time it's Donna Dewitt, the President of the South Carolina AFL-CIO (a grand title for a chief thug, eh?), using a baseball bat to smack a piñata sporting the face of S.C. Gov. Nikki Haley on it.
Now, imagine, folks, if these were Republicans using a ball bat on an effigy of a Democrat Gov. — and a female one at that. This story would be the story of the day all over the news and would go on for weeks at a time. We'd never hear the end of it from the Old Media.
Democrats do it… and crickets.
In fact, if this was a video of Republicans doing such a thing, the GOP candidate for president would be tarred with their actions. Right now we'd be hearing calls from every last Democrat, every last member of the media (but I repeat myself) for Governor Mitt Romney to disavow this violence.
Again. Democrats do it…. and crickets.

Remember back when all Sarah Palin did was put the icon of a target on a map of targeted districts during the 2010 election? Remember how that became a symbol in the Old Media of the "violence" being urged by those evil Republicans? Well, here we have a ball bat being used on the face of a female Governor and… yep, crickets."
Additionally, this is violence being acted out on a female politician. Again, imagine if Republicans were being so sexist against a female Democrat. That is yet another angle that Democrats would include in their lies about the so-called "Republican war on women."
Democrats do it… more crickets.
If you ever wanted to see an example of the double standard of the Old Media establishment, this is one.

FILED: December 01, 2010
Washington County Circuit Court
Defendant kicked the victim in the head while wearing a pair of steel-toed boots.Ā For that conduct he was convicted of first-degree assault, ORS 163.185, and unlawful use of a weapon, ORS 166.220.Ā He appeals, raising two assignments of error, the first of which we reject without discussion.Ā In his second assignment, defendant argues that the trial court erred in failing to merge his convictions.Ā Defendant concedes that he did not preserve that argument in the trial court, but he urges us to review it as plain error.Ā The state replies that, in light of the specific allegations in the indictment, the trial court did not err because the unlawful use of a weapon charge required the jury to find an element not included in the first-degree assault charge.Ā Alternatively, the state argues that the asserted error is not plain.Ā We affirm.
This court may consider a party's unpreserved assignment of error when the asserted error is one of law, apparent on the face of the record, ORAP 5.45(1), and warrants the affirmative exercise of our discretion under Ailes v. Portland Meadows, 312 Or 376, 382, 823 P2d 956 (1991).Ā An error of law is apparent when "the point [is] obvious, [and] not reasonably in dispute."Ā Id.Ā As explained below, the question of whether defendant's convictions should merge is not obvious and, thus, any error is not plain.Ā
Defendant relies on this court's decision in State v. Ryder, 230 Or App 432, 216 P3d 895 (2009).Ā In that case, we exercised our discretion to review the defendant's unpreserved argument that the trial court had erred by failing sua sponte to merge his convictions for second-degree assault and unlawful use of a weapon.Ā According to defendant, in Ryder, we held that the "appellant must have intentionally caused serious physical injury by means of a deadly or dangerous weapon" in order to be guilty of first-degree assault, and "must have used or attempted to use a deadly or dangerous weapon on another" in order to be guilty of unlawful use of a weapon, and, thus, "the two offenses should merge."Ā (Emphasis omitted.)
The state argues that Ryder is distinguishable because, here, unlike in Ryder, "the state did not charge defendant with committing [unlawful use of a weapon] by attempting to use a dangerous or deadly weapon."Ā In this case, the state observes, defendant was charged with "possess[ing] a dangerous weapon with intent to use it unlawfully" and, thus, the unlawful use of a weapon charge included at least one element that the first-degree assault charge did not--possessing or carrying a deadly or dangerous weapon.Ā According to the state, it is possible for an offender to commit first-degree assault without possessing or carrying the weapon that inflicts a serious physical injury by, for example, dashing a victim's head against a concrete sidewalk.Ā In that example, the state asserts, the offender would not "possess" the sidewalk, despite having used it to injure the victim.Ā
The so-called "anti-merger" statute, ORS 161.067(1), provides that, "[w]hen the same conduct or criminal episode violates two or more statutory provisions and each provision requires proof of an element that the others do not, there are as many separately punishable offenses as there are separate statutory violations."Ā Under that statute, for a single criminal act or criminal episode to give rise to more than one statutory violation, three requirements must be satisfied:Ā (1) defendant must have engaged in acts that are "the same criminal conduct or episode"; (2) defendant's acts must have violated two or more "statutory provisions"; and (3) each statutory provision must require "proof of an element that the others do not." ĀState v. Crotsley, 308 Or 272, 278, 779 P2d 600 (1989) (quoting former merger statute, the nearly identical precursor to ORS 161.067(1)); see also State v. White, 346 Or 275, 211 P3d 248 (2009) (synthesizing prior merger cases discussing the phrase "statutory provisions" and analyzing how that phrase applied to multiple convictions of second-degree robbery).(1)
Like in this case, in Ryder, one of the paired charges involved ORS 166.220, which provides, in part:
"(1) A person commits the crime of unlawful use of a weapon if the person:
"(a) Attempts to use unlawfully against another, or carries or possesses with intent to use unlawfully against another, any dangerous or deadly weapon as defined in ORS 161.015[.]"
Thus, an offender may violate ORS 166.220(1) either by attempting to use a dangerous weapon or by carrying or possessing the weapon with intent to use it against another.Ā
In Ryder, the defendant was charged with violating ORS 166.220(1) by using a dangerous weapon against the victim and committing second-degree assault by intentionally and knowingly causing the victim physical injury by means of a dangerous weapon.Ā 230 Or App at 435.Ā As we explained, "[b]oth of those charges arose out of defendant's concurrent conduct against the same victim--that is, defendant unlawfully used a knife, a dangerous weapon, against that victim and, by doing so, did intentionally and knowingly cause her physical injury."Ā Id. at 434-35.Ā Here, by contrast, defendant was charged with violating ORS 166.220(1) by possessing a dangerous weapon--his steel-toed boots--with the intent to use them unlawfully and committing first-degree assault by unlawfully and intentionally causing serous physical injury to the victim by means of a dangerous weapon.Ā Thus, here, in order to convict defendant of violating ORS 166.220(1), the state was required to prove that defendant possessed a dangerous weapon, whereas in Ryder, to earn a conviction, the state was required to prove that the defendant actually used a dangerous weapon.Ā
Although it is true that in this case, like in Ryder, the evidence showed that defendant actually used the same dangerous weapon that he used to commit the assault, the pleaded elements of the lesser charged offense in this case were not co-extensive with the elements of the greater offense.Ā Moreover, defendant does not analyze the second issue under ORS 161.067, namely, whether his conduct violated two or more statutory provisions.Ā Because defendant was charged in this case with a different way of violating ORS 166.220(1) from the defendant in Ryder, it is not obvious, in the absence of a better developed argument on appeal, that the merger analysis here is controlled by our decision in that case.Ā Because the asserted error in this case is unpreserved and, as explained, not obvious, we affirm.
1. In White, the court reaffirmed that, to determine whether a single act violates two or more statutory provisions, a court must determine whether the legislature intended to create a single crime or two or more crimes.Ā 346 Or at 280.Ā That inquiry does not depend--at least not entirely--on the structural form that a criminal statute takes, although the use of a single section is one indication that the legislature intended to define a single crime.Ā Id.Ā Neither does the inquiry turn entirely on whether two or more charges are based on one or more statutes that address separate and distinct legislative concerns.Ā Id. at 283.Ā That is so because, as the court observed in White, "every statutory section that 'requires proof of an element that the others do not,' ORS 161.067(1), necessarily involves a distinct legislative concern--otherwise there would be no need for the additional element."Ā Id.Ā The court therefore clarified in White, that, "[A court views] the statute as a whole, looking to the text, context, and, when appropriate, legislative history of the statute.Ā That analysis includes consideration of whether the sections, although addressing different concerns, also may address, on a more general level, one unified legislative objective."Ā Id. at 283-84.

Comment: Asustek dinged by Dell
0 comments post a comment
Michael Dell has given Taiwanese motherboard maker Asustek an ultimatum: Choose between its own-branded PC business or Dell, and pronto.
Apparently, Michael Dell wasn't all smiles when he came through Asia a few weeks ago. Looks like he slapped Asustek around a bit, telling the Taiwan motherboard maker to choose between its branded PC business or Dell, and pronto.
That's bad news for Asustek's budding branded PCs. The company makes a mighty fine notebook PC (have one myself) and sells them for a relatively cheap price. So it's no wonder that Dell feels spooked. Looks better, costs less " that's a no-brainer.
This comes back to the same old phenomena I like to call the Acer Syndrome. It's when a no-name contract manufacturer starts a side business in branded products, figuring he can fatten up the bottom line. Problem is that success breeds problems. Acer eventually had to spin off its contract manufacturing arm, now known as Wistron, to avoid a conflict of interest. Others have come under similar pressure, including BenQ Corp " itself an Acer spin-off.
It's been at least a year since Asustek floated the idea of spinning of its contract OEM business, and there's little to show from it. So it's not totally surprising to see Dell lighting a fire under chief executive Johnny Shih. Reports say Dell set a deadline of Q1, 2008.
Asustek must make a move if it wants to keep from losing more business to the likes of Hon Hai and Quanta. Dell is supposedly offering an order of 1 million notebook PCs to Asustek, and is making future orders conditional on the spin-off.
Asustek will still do well in the branded motherboard and graphics card business, but I suspect that orphaning its branded notebook PCs means this business will suffer. It's too bad. Not only does a good product with good value get quashed, but we also once again see that Taiwan remains pigeonholed in the dog-eat-dog world of contract manufacturing.
I hold out some hope that Asustek can pull off an Acer. After dumping its contract business, Acer has emerged as a PC powerhouse. It's already No.4 globally and may overtake Lenovo this year. I can see why Dell is worried.

Topographical, geological, reconnaissance and operations (trench) maps of Persia, Turkey, Syria, Jordan, Arabia, Palestine, Sinai, Egypt, Sudan and Libya: the series includes coverage of an area from Syria to Cyrenaica, with detailed mapping of the Western Desert and even larger-scale coverage of the Suez Canal defence zone. The series comprises maps compiled and/or produced by the Geographical Section General Staff and other intelligence branches at the War Office; Royal Engineer Survey Companies attached to the Egyptian Expeditionary Forces, a survey party of Middle East Forces (1919), the Ordnance Survey; Stanford's Geographical Establishment, the Royal Geographical Society, the Palestine Exploration Fund (PEF), the Survey of Egypt, and a few French, Turkish, Turco-French (including Ottoman Railway Company) and German maps. The Palestine Exploration Fund series, begun in the 19th century, had been extended in 1913 and was much reproduced and further extended southwards and eastwards across the Jordan to meet the needs of Allenby's rapid advances. The PEF items include a table of topographical terms used in English and Arabic (WO 303/223). Some maps are noted as compiled from photographs supplied by the Royal Flying Corps.

|Administrative / biographical background:
By the end of 1915, Salonika had replaced the Dardanelles as the focus of Anglo-French armed confrontation in the Near East. Elsewhere in the Mediterranean area, the main operations between Imperial and Turco-German forces were sustained across the border zone between Sinai and Palestine. Hostilities commenced with defensive actions by the Allies to meet Turkish probes across the Sinai Peninsula in attempts to breach the Suez Canal and with long-range operations in the Western Desert to contain provocative actions in the oases by the Senussi, who had been persuaded to harass Allied forces. With the arrival of British and Anzac reinforcements in Egypt, the Egyptian Expeditionary Force absorbed what remained of the Mediterranean Expeditionary Force in March 1916 after the Gallipoli evacuation, and offensive operations across Sinai into Palestine were planned.
The largely desert conditions provided Allied cavalry with opportunities for large-scale offensive operations such as were seldom offered in other theatres but the absence of roads or tracks suitable for wheeled or motor transport made the movement of supplies, artillery and ammunition a major problem. Water supply imposed similar restrictions, such wells as existed in the desert having insufficient water to supply the needs of large units of men, horses and camels on the move. The rate of construction of new railway systems and piped water supplies forward from Egypt therefore determined the feasibility of offensive operations into Palestine and Syria as much as the availability of the forces required. The Allied offensive began in March 1917, with General Sir Edmund Allenby appointed GOC EEF in June, striking north-east across Sinai and the Jordan and ultimately north via Jerusalem to Aleppo. This offensive was flanked, and a second front created, by the exploitation of the Arab Revolt by T E Lawrence westwards with irregular Arab forces across the Syrian desert and the Hejaz towards the Gulf of Aqaba and northwards towards Damascus.
The military concerns of the War Office in Egypt thus covered all of the western and south-western marches of the old Ottoman Empire. Egypt itself, the provinces of Sudan and Sinai and the island of Cyprus, all recently taken from Turkish control, needed to be defended as well as providing secure bases for attack.
Many reconnaisance and route maps supplemented the regular series in the desert areas and Operations [Trench] Maps were produced for the EEF Palestine operations, often exploiting aerial photography.
From early in the war, authority for military map production was delegated to the Survey of Egypt, under the active control of (Sir) Ernest Dowson, and its important contribution to the Imperial war effort was identified by designations in the range GSGS 4000 to GSGS 4025 allocated from the War Office in London. Many reproductions and revised editions of the Kitchener/Conder maps produced by the PEF and detailed topographic maps of the battle areas, (often identified in the catalogue as reconnaissance, route or operations maps), appeared as local productions of the 7th Field Survey Coy RE and the Survey of Egypt. Many new techniques of exploiting aerial photography were developed in producing these maps.

My Nonprofit Reviews
Melissa P
Review for American National Red Cross, Washington, DC, USA
I'm tired of all these large non-profits who collect BILLIONS of dollars and the money does NOT go to where it is suppose to - I've heard all kinds of bad stories about this organization in the past, but once I saw how they handled hurricane sandy, I now agree wholeheartedly! The VOLUNTEERS are amazing (but they are not paid) - the Red Cross themselves said that 90% of people that were helping were volunteers, that leaves 10% getting paid - with the BILLIONS of dollars they collected, there should have been more money circulated in helping New Jersians (and others affected by Sandy) - alot of FOOD was DONATED so I'd like to know WHERE all this money has gone, WHY THEY ARE STILL ADVERTISING to donate money for NEW JERSEY, but yet they are not still active from the hurricane - It is time for non-profits to be held more accountable and for change. I want to create my own non-profit and focus on the TRUE MEANING of the organization rather than worrying about filling my own pocketbook first like these CEOS, etc.... SHAME!!! I will NEVER donate to the Red Cross again - or any other large charity (as this happens with all of them!!)

Ian Staniloff says the decision to reduce the number of teams in the Manitoba Curling Association's Men's Bonspiel does not take the shine off the event.
"Not at all," the MCA's executive director said yesterday. "It will still have the same number of Select (provincial men's championship qualifying) spots. That was never an issue. It is still a men's-only bonspiel, because some people had raised issues about maybe opening it up. That's not what we're looking at at this point.
"And it probably still is the world's largest single-gender, single-event bonspiel."
The MCA will limit next winter's field to 448 teams instead of the 512 it had been accepting since 1994. That means next year's bonspiel -- the 118th annual -- will have the fewest teams since only 323 competed in 1966.
"It's a significant change, and we'll see," Staniloff said. "If the demand is there, if all of a sudden a waiting list is created and we're getting some pressure to expand it, we'll go back.
This year's bonspiel attracted only 467 teams. In 2004, the bonspiel fell three rinks short of a full 512-team field.
The number of rural participants has been declining each year, so the MCA is going to focus on filling the bonspiel with Winnipeg rinks.
And to make the city clubs happy, the MCA is doing away with the Saturday afternoon buffet, which had been held at the Victoria Inn -- the event's headquarters.
Instead, curlers will get meal vouchers to use at city clubs. That will be done on a two-year trial run.
"The curling clubs have been on our case about that in terms of they don't see that revenue on the Saturday," Staniloff said. "They find that their clubs don't have any activity.
"... We're going to put the onus on the city clubs to ensure the bonspiel is full. They're the ones who are saying, 'Give us back the business.' Let's see how that works out."
In addition, the MCA won't have to use curling clubs outside the perimeter, since there will be fewer teams, and it plans to put a firm entry deadline in place.

As if the recent rumor bonanza was not enough to convince the world Sony is this close to rolling out an international version of the Xperia Z1 f dubbed Z1s, a likely accidental official confirmation of the phone's existence has come earlier today.
The handheld has been listed on Sony's official online mobile store for a little while, being predictably yanked off the site as soon as the admin noticed the blunder. Or maybe it was an intentional listing after all to get us to notice the little smartphone that could?
That's certainly a possibility, as is an innocent typo being slipped on sonymobile.com. Only it's too big of a coincidence for it to happen just as we're all expecting Sony to formally announce the Xperia Z1s.
Remember, the Japanese unveiled the 4.3-incher in an NTT DoCoMo-exclusive flavor a month or so ago, with the purported "international" variant subsequently appearing in the flesh courtesy of sources that are usually very much in the know and right on the money.
Though it's never wise to have certainties, chances are the Z1s will be an identical twin for the Z1 f, with the same uncompromising spec sheet and compact body. Specifically, a 4.3-inch 720p panel, quad-core Snapdragon 800 CPU, 2 GB RAM, 20 MP rear-facing camera, 16 GB of storage (to start with), and massive 2,300 mAh battery.
Alright, Sony, your buzz-building time is up. Bring the Xperia Z1 on and please, pretty please, price it sensibly. If you play your cards right, this may just become one of the biggest blockbusters in Android history. Am I right or am I right, dear readers?

Korean cooking forum topics

This topic contains 0 replies, has 1 voice, and was last updated by devinsutton90 3 years, 5 months ago.
First of all, thank you Maangchi for teaching me about Korean cuisine!
I first got bit by the Korean food bug when a Korean friend of mine brought home galbi to our remote ski town of Mammoth Lakes. I have had galbi before, but never like this! This batch was sent up with her by her mother from Irvine, CA and was the best I had ever had!
I then started researching more about Korean food and decided I wanted to try my hand at making my own kimchi. That was when I came across Maangchi and her recipes. I have since made gallons of kimchi for myself and friends! After a recent flight to LA, I stocked up on all of the ingredients that are impossible to find where I live like hot pepper paste and soybean paste. Now I am looking forward to trying my hand at making more and more Korean food!

Maybe you think life is eternal, maybe you think it is temporary. In either case it is foolish to lament over affection, or anything else.
They key Sanskrit word in this text is dhruva, "permanent, real, reliable, changeless." If the world is dhruva than nothing can be lost forever, so there is no need to lament. If the world is not dhruva than nothing can be kept forever, so what is the point of lamenting?
You worry, thinking, "But how can those poor helpless people survive without me?" You feel this way because you are ignorant of who and what you really are. Give this up.
You are in a body created by five elements and controlled by habit, causality and fate. You are like a person bitten by a snake, who rushes to help others.

I've considered getting one for a while but not really known what to go for. What would you recommend? How do you decide what you want? Does anyone do their own designs or just go into a tattoo shop and get one drawn up?
Chat Forum
Recommend me a tattoo
Pick something you like, find an awesome artist and discus what you want, wait, wait some more and let them come up with an awesome design. And don't be afraid to travel.
If you don't know what to get don't get one.
It has to be personal to you. Get a good artist to draw it.
Take it to a good tattoo guy who will change it a bit.
Get the tattoo done. What's the point of getting any old tat that means nothing?
And for the love of god don't get this tribal shit unless you're Samoan.
What about a tattoo of Beaker, from The Muppets?
Well yeh, not to keen on the tribal stuff, what about Chinese letters?
But seriously, I dont have a clue. My mate was on about getting a dotted pattern up her forarm, that sounded pretty cool, anyone gone for anything like that?
What about something bike related?
this takes some beating
What about something bike related?
Something original like a chain ring scar on your calf or maybe 32:16 on your bicep?
what about Chinese letters?
I have a tattoo of some custard on my forearm
Very funny guys, and it's made think a bit more about getting something I actually want, as some of those are shocking!
A friend of mine has a few tattoos, but what he does is decide the design and exactly where he wants it then waits 6months, if anything changes in that time then the 6months starts again. If he still want's it after 6months then he gets it permanently, if you can't wait 6months then it's not worth it!
A tattoo doesn't need a meaning, choose something that looks good, and don't go getting an artist to draw anything, you are going to a tattoo ARTIST, if they're any good of course, just get some reference material together....
This is some of my dotwork
I reckon this on your chest -
Then something like this on your face but with KoM crowns rather than stars.
I'd make sure the crowns are small so there was enough space for them all.
32:16 on your bicep
I had that done when SS was new. Got a 29er now and still on the same gear, keeping it real.
How about something subtle, like some cock and balls on your cock and balls.
Guy in the local bike shop had 55:11 on his arm - he was a roadie....
Nice dots schrickvr6.
I searched cycling tattoo's on google images and therte's some shockers......
Something veterinary perhaps?
bob_summers - Member
this takes some beating
That is amazing, I really hope its real.
What about this work of genius:
I believe this one is the best there is.
Get in quick though, it sells out early.
Still looking for inspiration?
I quite like something like that, sort of captures how I feel when Im at my best on the road. Dancing up climbs like I have wings.
Hmmm +1
maybe a fishing line with a lot of fishys hooked on it
Something easy to remove?
Something easy to remove?
To be fair, some kid gave me a henna tattoo at a festival earlier this year, and I forgot I had it. But I saw sad when I looked at my arm a few weeks later and it had gone
I just have ACAB across my knuckles.
I just have ACAB across my knuckles.
Ha, my mate has that across his wrist!
Decide on the style you like - tribal, jap, Chinese, modern etc then research artists. Talk to some of the artists, decide on one.. Trust in the artist and go with the flow. It's an experience that you should thoroughly enjoy (if tattoos are for you).
Try to avoid picking one out of a book or getting one where the artist uses a transfer. You ideally want it sketched onto your skin first so you can see the design and work on it with the artist. Then once your happy, out comes the ink gun and the journey continues.
I've just posted mine on tazzys thread. Ive got pics of this one in various stages - when it was being drawn on, then when it was being inked over the sessions. I've even got a bit of video from each stage.
Remember it doesn't matter what other people like, it's what you like that counts - unless of course you're going to tattoo hitlers left testicle to your chin in which case my advice would be don't do it..
But I saw sad when I looked at my arm a few weeks later and it had gone
You saw sad? That's a bit meta.
"ACAB"? all Cyclists are beautiful? that's a lovely sentiment,sparkly old chap

" Brand: Creamfields / Type: Cheeses "
I think most of these processed cheese slices taste the same so I always try new ones if they're cheaper because for what they are I think cheese slices are a bit over priced.
These Creamfields ones are 69p for 10 so are a bit dearer than the Value ones but they was out of stock when I went to Tesco.
They're nice, like I said a lot of cheese slices taste the same and these were EXACTLY what I was expecting. The slices have got a lovely rubbery mild taste and even though they don't taste like real cheese there's no chemical taste to them like you get with some of the cheapo cheese slices.
I had them on burgers and they were proper nice. The cheese slices melted quick under the grill but the edges of them stay nice and floppy, the texture of them when they've melted is good and they don't go sloppy or dry out or anything mad like that.
They went good with the taste of the burger and also the relish I had on it, the taste isn't very strong so it didn't spoil any of the other flavours but it made for a wicked cheese burger!
I deffo recommend these. They're better tasting than some processed cheese slices and like I said I can't see the point of spending loads of this sort of thing because it's processed crap however expensive it as and most of them DO taste the same! lol
This one is a bit creamier tasting and I like that about it, I know it doesn't make it taste anything like real cheese but it just makes these slices taste a bit better quality than a lot of them.
I only ever have these on burgers but I know some people have them on sandwiches and stuff, I reckon these would be ok if you like that sort of thing because they've got a nice taste and there's nothing that I can see would be nasty in a butty.

auto_handle attribute
The [auto_handle] ACF attribute directs the stub to automatically establish the binding for a function that does not have an explicit binding-handle parameter.
[ auto_handle [, interface-attribute-list] ] interface interface-name { interface-definition }
- interface-attribute-list
Specifies zero or more attributes that apply to the interface as a whole, such as code or nocode. Separate interface attributes with commas.
- interface-name
Specifies the name of the interface.
- interface-definition
Specifies IDL statements that form the definition of the interface.
The [auto_handle] attribute appears in the interface header of the ACF. It also appears in the interface header of the IDL file when you specify the MIDL compiler switch /app_config.
When the client calls a function that uses automatic binding and no binding to a server exists, the stub automatically establishes the binding. The binding is reused for subsequent calls to other functions in the interface that use automatic binding. The client application program does not have to declare or perform any processing relating to the binding handle.
When the ACF is not present or does not include the [implicit_handle] attribute, the MIDL compiler uses [auto_handle] and issues an informational message. The MIDL compiler also uses [auto_handle], if needed, to establish the initial binding for a [context_handle].
The [auto_handle] attribute can occur only if the [implicit_handle] or [explicit_handle] attribute does not occur. The [auto_handle] attribute can occur in the ACF or IDL interface header at most once.
[ auto_handle ] interface MyInterface { /* Interface definition goes here*/ } [ auto_handle, code ] interface MyInterface { /* Interface definition goes here*/ }
