Episode Summary: During Golden Week, Hayate, Nagi, and Maria take a trip to an island in the Aegean Sea. Nagi still does not like to go outside much, though she gives in to Hayate after he sulks. While out the next day, Nagi's hat is blown away by the wind, and when Hayate goes to retrieve it, he falls into a time slip and arrives many years previous when Nagi was living on the island. After he realizes what is going on, he discovers she is being targeted by the Mafia, and he ends up protecting her from them, ultimately winning; Hayate realizes that the reason he was sent back was to save Nagi. Hayate had promised Nagi in the past to watch the stars together at the beach, but when they go at sunset, Nagi's hat once again is blown away and Hayate goes through another time slip back to the present. This caused Nagi to remember Hayate in the past as a liar who disappeared on her and took her hat with him. Back in the present, Hayate gives Nagi back her hat and the two gaze at the starry night sky together.

Thanks to technology and a few compassionate go-to travel experts at Expedia, some pediatric patients are being taken to places they might never have had the chance to experience! At St. Jude Research Hospital there is now a program in place which allows children to experience moments and create memories unimagined!
Employees from Expedia have set up a virtual way to take these children, who are oftentimes confined to the hospital for months at a time, anywhere they would like to go. Be it under the sea, across the desert, or in a field of horses to "run" free with this technology in place this project is facilitating dreams!
So far, four children have had the chance to travel to faraway lands and interact with environments and animals via virtual reality. In the video below, you can get an inside glimpse of exactly what this real-life dream come true is for two of the four kids! Check it out! It's too cool to miss!

Dating......Finding a new partner after this experience is a whole new catagory I can't find on personal dating sites. I want to meet someone who has experienced cancer or has someone in their lives who understands what it's like to survive this. No one else understands. It's like an exclusive club, one you never wanted to join! Is this site a place one could meet other individuals in the same position? Is there such a thing as meeting singles in the "cancer" world?
Mar 09, 2010 - 12:56 pm
One place you migh meet singles is at a support group. A Cancer survivors suport group. Join a few of them and see what happens. I would think there are dating sites out there, just don't know of any. You are a cancer survivor, don't just limit yourself to people who have cancer, go out and enjoy life. Tina
Mar 10, 2010 - 9:00 pm
Ali -
I only know second hand what you're going through, but I can tell you what worked for my friends. They found bereavement support groups where everyone in the group had been in Cancer Land. People made friends with other people and some friends became partners - one friend has married and one has made a gentleman her constant companion - without the marriage. At least not yet. I have no information on their "intimacy" patterns.
I know in New York City that Gilda's Club has such groups, as do several hospitals. It pays to look into groups through The Wellness Center, which is now affiliated with Gilda's. Not every city has Gilda's, but they have face to face meetings under other names.
Just some input. If I find out more, I'll post again.
Good luck. There'll be someone who won't need explanations.

Review for Excalibur Auto Body Repair
Bob W. on 05/06/2014
Bob said they did a great job. The paint was really good. His vehicle was very clean. They have a very nice facility. He initially took a Disabled Americans Van for detailing and it was done for free. Since then, he brought other vehicles and customers to this business. They have really nice people who treated him well.

The Far Eastern Economic Review will cease publication in December, the magazines's owner Dow Jones said yesterday.
Dow Jones, which also publishes The Wall Street Journal, said the Review's closure would allow the company to focus on "core products" and "key markets" like India, China and Japan in order to boost the company's growth in Asia.
"Unfortunately, despite several attempts at invigorating the brand, the Review's continued losses in advertising revenue and readers are now unsustainable," Dow Jones said. The pub's opinion and commentary will now be spread across Dow Jones' other outlets.
Dow Jones has recently worked to expand its local content in Asia, launching a locally printed version of The Wall Street Journal Asia in India in May, expanding the chinese.WSJ.com and preparing to launch a Japanese language site later this year. There have also been some recent staff changes at the Journal's Asian and European editions. Just last month, Bret Stephens was appointed deputy editorial page editor for the paper's editions in Europe and Asia, where one of his duties was to over see the Review.
Dow Jones said yesterday that its investments into its Asian operations have resulted in a 6.3 percent increase in print circulation during the first six months of the year. The company has seen "significant growth" in Hong Kong, India, Malaysia and Taiwan with daily circulation growing to 85,822 copies from 80,706 year over year.
But despite its growth in Asia in other areas, Dow Jones said the Review, which was launched in 1946, has become a drain on the company.
"The decision to cease publication of the Review is a difficult one made after a careful study of the magazine's prospects in a challenging business climate," said Todd Larsen, chief operating officer at Dow Jones Consumer Media Group. "It has a rich history of pioneering journalism and helped to set the standard for the press in Asia in the post-World War II era when local publications often lacked the freedom to report honestly. Dow Jones is proud to have been associated with the Review and its invaluable contributions to the understanding of the Asia region."
Hugo Restall, who has served as the Review's editor since 2004, will remain a member of the Journal's editorial board. Meanwhile, Review subscribers will get a one-year subscription to asia.wsj.com.

What do you store your lipo's in??
What do you guy store your lipo's in, I know the risk of fire during storage is very low not sure how low. I store mine in a porcelain cooking dish with a lid and set that on top of a glass cooking pie dish that is upside down for a base. I figure if one were to catch on fire the lidded dish should take the heat and limit the oxygen into the dish. I have to keep them in my spare room cause I live in a apartment(no basement), and the garage is very cold in the winter hear in minnesota, What do you guys use to store them in and do you think I would be better off to put them in the cold garage. PS last night it was -12f so it gets cold out there.
same here plastic plano box.
There is no risk of fire if your not charging, or using the packs. store them anywhere. For battery life sake store them at the correct voltage like said above
"Had been (past tense) storing my lipos in a ceramic tub-no lid. Luckily I was home and went into "airplane" room and found one of the lipos was on fire, on the carpet, and was able to prevent damage or far worse. AND I WAS NOT CHARGING THEM. Since that incident, I store them in metal ammo box (drill 2 holes about 1/4 inch diameter for venting) and in lipo bags. Charging is in the lipo bag. To this day, do not know why the battery just went "crazy". Hope this incident may be helpful to someone: charge (don't leave room) and store in some type of fireproof container. bdel"
"WOW had a call from my partner whiles at work about my opti power lipo blow up, and the thing is its wasn't even on charge so am a bit confuse to y this happen, I did notice that they were starting to puff and funny enough i did rang opti power yesterday regarding the battery puffing and they said to send them back and now this happen today, but the most thing I was happy about is that she was at home other wise I could have lost" http://www.rcheliaddict.co.uk/main-d...tml#post877508
"A mate at our club this evening had a luck escape, a brand new Turnegy 5000 went up in his kitchen! no apperant reason (not on charge), he managed to get it out in time but i guess a bit of a freak out for his wife, little'un and himself. so remember lipos realy can burn the house down be carefull folks!"
"Bought a couple of ThunderPower G6 1800 3s's and ran one in my parkzone mustang today for about 5 minutes (timer )of balanced flying. Packed the plane up took the battery out and put it back into a zip lock bag... One of the cells exploded while carrying it back to the car? For a brand new pack that had been discharged and balanced im pretty amazed?"
"Bro's just had a very close call, A brand new battery never crashed a 2S 480 mAh was just sitting there it was not used or charged on this day.. I was up stairs and heard a loud pop, I go down stairs only to find the lil' battery spewing grew smoke & spinning then it blew up ! Big flames. It almost cost me MY HOUSE, this darn lil' battery all by itself did this, I have learned my lesson all batteries are now stored on ammo cans, DO NOT STORE LIPOS, in the open !!!!!!!!!!!! Look what happened to me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It managed to burn the wall, carpet,and tile.......Never again !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"After flying this morning I was doing some repairs and all of a sudden i heard a pop and smoke started pouring out of a Flightmax 3s 1300. I had not flown that pack. I just brought it home unflown. It was just sitting in the concrete block I store it in. I have a bucket of sand on hand that I dumped into the block and put its concrete top on. Smoked like crazy. Stunk up the cellar. There was another 1300 in the same block. The voltage on that measures fine but I don't know if the heat from the venting pack up against it might have damaged it? Now I am a little wary of my batteries. I treat them well. Have only charged them at 1C and do not abuse them. I recently balanced the pack. That was a small 1300. I recently got 6s 5000's".
"I had my own lipo near disaster today. After maidening a new plane last night, I left eveything in my wife's car overnight (ambient temp was cool). This morning I moved it all over to my car intending to fly. As I placed a TP 2100 3S on my front seat, I smelled a slight odour and felt the battery to be warm. I immedielty pulled it out the car and placed it on the ground. It was now fiery hot and smoking - which it did for about 10 minutes. It puffed out completely but I never saw actual flames.
This battery has not crashed, and only used once before. It was about half charged at the time. All I did was move it to the other car. This demonstrates to me the fragility of these lipo's. I could have lost my car."

hoppy, well didn't realize that there were that many cases of idle lipo fires. I might start keeping my lipos in my army ammo box then.
mrforsyth, just re-read your post saying that you store your lipos in your refrigerator. Are there any reason you do this? I have always thought lipos didn't like the cold, let alone refrigerating them
Never plan on a Lipo not catching fire. It is better to be a little paranoid than to have a Marshmallow roast using your house as the fire source.
What ever you store in should be vented or unlocked IMO, else wize you have what is called a bomb.
They love the cold. It drops the storage damage way down compared to storing at room temperature. See http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/a...tore_batteries
Very well put 1320 - "Never plan on a Lipo not catching fire. It is better to be a little paranoid than to have a Marshmallow roast using your house as the fire source."
I "store" packs at storage voltage on steel shelves which are in an area that I keep free of flammable materials. Any packs which I've charged prior to flying 'em and packs which I'm transporting (charged or not) go into LiPo Sacks (the real deal).
I believe that all LiPo packs should be treated with respect, but I don't think there's any reason for the hysteria some people exhibit or the extreme measures some people take. In most cases, those extreme measures are disproportionate to how they treat other common hazardous materials.
Take a friend of mine, for example: He went so far as to buy a used airtight wood stove for the sole purpose of using it as a LiPo bunker and even installed a flue pipe which goes through an exterior wall of his garage. But he's also a gearhead and I lost track of the times I've found him in the same garage standing at his work bench cleaning parts in a pan full of gasoline.
People are funny like that, don't you think?
What do you guy think of me using a old charcoal grill out in the garage. I know it is cold but I would rather have to replace a battery now and then from the weather destroying it than a fire in the house. If i keep the grill a few feet from anything I think it would make a good storage unit for lipo's, I know it will take the heat anyway
hoppy, that article you linked also reads "avoid freezing".
now I dont know about you guys but sometimes I find a little ice/slush in my soft drinks sometimes in my fridge. They say around 59*, I would say actually putting them in a fridge is overkill. Now you may say well just turn down my fridge, well, hehe, I like my drinks and milk as cold as I can, and im not going to sacrifice my cold drinks and cold beer for some nice refrigerated lipos, hehe.
Use the link again and take the time to look at the chart showing storage temps., state of charge and capacity retained after one year at such storage.
Reading only the head lines one missing a lot of the details.

The Government has promised more than $25 million to battle the outbreak of a kauri-killing disease.
The plan to invest in research, monitoring and preventive measures for kauri dieback was a key part of the Labour Party's conservation policy, announced earlier this year.
Conservation Minister Nick Smith said: "Kauri is an iconic species for New Zealand and one of the oldest and largest organisms on earth. Kauri dieback is a significant threat to their survival and we need to ramp up our efforts to protect these magnificent trees.''
There is no known cure for the disease, which has been found in Northland, the Waitakere Ranges, Great Barrier Island, and recently in the Coromandel.
Government planned to invest $15 million in operating funding and $10.7 million in capital funding over four years.
The money would go towards improving Department of Conservation walking tracks, boardwalks and hygiene stations, research, surveillance, and co-ordinating a response to the disease.
It would allow DOC to upgrade 100km of high-use tracks through kauri forests and install 300 hygiene stations.
The total conservation budget remained the same in Budget 2014 at around $340 million.
Government also allocated $20 million for freshwater management.
More than half of this would go to councils and communities to improve their planning and decision-making around managing local freshwater resources.
A $5 million fund would help communities to restore waterways through initiatives such as riparian planting and constructing artificial wetlands.
Around $3 million would be put towards implementing resource management reforms.
- $26.5m over four years for fighting kauri dieback
- $20m over four years to help councils manage freshwater

No Gain in Brain Games7 months, 1 week ago
Posted on Apr 18, 2017, 6 a.m.
New research concludes that brain games do not actually improve cognition or help in preventing age-related brain decline.
Most people assume the popular brain games available on the world wide web make participants smarter. In reality, such brain games might not be that helpful. A recent study conducted at Florida State University found that there is no evidence that brain games boost overall cognitive abilities. In reality, those hyperbolic advertisements touting the merits of alleged brain-training products might not hold any truth at all.
About the Study
The Florida State University study was led by Neil Charness, Wally Boot and Dustin Souders. Souders is a graduate student at the university. Boot is an associate professor of psychology. Charness is a top authority on cognition and aging. He is also a FSU professor of psychology and the university's director at the Institute for Successful Longevity.
The study narrowed in on whether brain games improve the working memory required for myriad tasks. The study analyzed a group of people that played the brain training game known as Mind Frontiers. A second group completed crossword-style games along with number puzzles. Each player was provided with the information necessary to solve problems.
The research team tested whether game players enjoyed improved working memory that heightened other mental abilities ranging from processing speed to memory and reasoning. After all, this is the fundamental claim of the companies that produce brain games. The research team also analyzed whether boosting working memory translates to improved performance on additional tasks. This translation of working memory to other challenges is commonly referred to as "far transfer".
Study Findings
Charness and his colleagues determined there is minimal evidence that brain games can boost one's brainpower or life in a meaningful way. Indeed, exaggerated claims that such brain games boost cognition have recently resulted in some hefty fines for the companies that produce these products.
Though the research team indicated it is possible to train a person to excel at tasks that are considered working memory challenges, such skills are quite narrow in scope and do not show considerable transfer. In particular, seniors should be concerned about whether their ability to solve crossword puzzles will help them remember small life details such as where their keys are placed. The study's findings show that the odds of brain games boosting memory for such subtle details are quite low.
Additional Information of Note
Charness points out that additional research determined that aerobic exercise boosts the brain. Most people assume that strictly mental exercises heighten cognitive abilities. The little-known truth is that physical exercise often creates helpful structural changes within the brain that improve its function. Charness predicts that a combination of exercise and brain games known as "exer-gaming" will spike in popularity across the next couple of decades.
Though the study detailed above concluded that brain games do little, if anything, to boost brainpower, Charness is adamant that people should not be "totally discouraged". He insists that the research effort should be viewed as another piece of the puzzle that humanity is attempting to assemble. Though brain games do little to boost far transfer, it is still possible to boost cognitive ability through aerobic exercise.

wikiHow to Prevent Hyacinth Flowers from Flopping
Hyacinth flowers are beautiful and it's desirable to show them to their best advantage. However, they have a fairly common habit of being too heavy for their own stem and flopping over while growing, bending the stem in half. To prevent this, follow the simple method outlined here.
1Find bamboo stakes that are very thin and small. Skewers could also be substituted for small pieces of bamboo if preferred.
2Prop up the flower head with one hand. Using the other hand, insert the stake into the potting soil or ground soil and ease the top of the stake under the flower head, and along the length of the stem.
3Repeat for each flower head that you want to keep upright. This can be done either in pots or in garden beds. It is a good idea to tie the stem to the stakes with fishing wire to keep them in place.
4Remove the stakes after the flowering season. Keep them in storage for use the next flowering season.

- If displaying the flowers in a pot indoors, be sure to make the stakes tuck neatly behind the flowers so that they cannot be seen.

Pompey midfielder happy to be with a big club in League One
Wednesday, 17th May 2017 23:06 by pompey-fans.com staff
Danny Rose has told of his pride at being involved in a second League Two promotion in two years - and says he can now enjoy being at a big club in League One.
The midfielder was one of Pompey's most consistent performers either side of a short spell out of the side, and is already looking forward to running out for the Blues at the higher level next season.
Some have even suggested he is a contender to replace Michael Doyle as skipper.
Rose told The News: 'In terms of contribution, I'm happy with the amount of games. You always want to play more and play every single game. Sometimes it's not possible.
'I've certainly enjoyed it since the Crawley game when I've come back into the team. 'I feel that I've contributed to the turn in the team's form. I've been a good part of that and played regular games at a time when we needed to perform and pick up results.'
Rose joined from Northampton last summer after the Cobblers were crowned League Two champions and he added: 'To sign for such a big club was the dream. That's why I turned down Northampton to play for Portsmouth
'My plan was to be in League One next season and now we're there. No disrespect to Northampton who are a fantastic club, and I enjoyed my time there, but I'm now at a bigger club in League One. So the decision to come here is entirely justified.'

"First class service from start to finish."
About: Barnsley Hospital Barnsley Hospital Barnsley S75 2EP
Posted via NHS Choices
I would like to commend all staff on duty yesterday in children's a&e, ENT, children's ward 37 and theatre staff.
I had to bring my 3 year old to a&e yesterday as he decided to put sweets in his ears, one in each! All staff in a&e were friendly and professional, the children's a &he was busy as expected but staff were kind and nothing was too much trouble to make sure my son was kept calm and engaged at what was probably a scary experience. One sweet proved stubborn to get out but staff persevered and the ENT dr seemed to come very quickly and we were taken to the ENT department to use facilities there. The sweet was still not budging so the ENT team decided to schedule my son for a quick theatre slot as there was no room on the list in the week.
At all stages I was kept informed and involved in decisions. I am a health professional myself but being there as a mum is always different of course and I felt at all times that we were the only patient that mattered even though I know they are juggling 20 things at once.
We were transferred to the children's ward where again the nurses were excellent and facilities wonderful. The play area is amazing and kept my little boy occupied while waiting for theatre. We went down to theatre at around 8.30pm and we had been seen by the anaesthetist on the ward before this. The theatre nurse who collected my son was amazing and made him smile and kept his mind off what was to come. I was allowed in the prep room and tried to keep my son calm. Again all staff in theatre were excellent, nothing was too much trouble the Consultant Anaesthetist and ENT surgeon were excellent and nothing was too much trouble even at this late hour.
We were able to bring our son home late yesterday night thankfully with troublesome sweetie removed and he is fine if a little sleepy today, but I just wanted to say thank you very much to everyone.
My Dad was also in the cardiac ward via a&e before Christmas and again the service was second to none. It is very reassuring to have you on our doorstep.
Response from Barnsley Hospital nearly 2 years ago
Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback about our services. We are really pleased to hear you and your son had a positive experience in our care, we will pass on your feedback to our staff.
We hope your Son and Dad are recovering well.
Kind regards
Barnsley Hospital

Lazio bring in Brazilian
Real Zaragoza midfielder Matuzalem has joined Lazio on an initial one-year loan deal.
By Nadia Carminati
Last Updated: 20/07/08 4:11pm
Real Zaragoza midfielder Matuzalem has joined Lazio on an initial one-year loan deal.
The Brazilian's future has been the subject of speculation since Zaragoza were relegated from the Primera Liga at the end of last season.
The Spanish side were reluctant to let the 28-year-old leave but it has now been confirmed that he will link up with Lazio for the forthcoming season.
Lazio will then have the option sign Matuzalem on a permanent basis next summer.
"I'm looking forward to arriving in Lazio to start a new adventure with such a prestigious side," he said in the Italian press.
"I'll be in Rome in a few hours to define the details of the operation.
The former Napoli and Parma man added: "I come back to Italy with the aim to win."

Quick review of the GPS Extension Kit for the Transformer Prime
- jeffreytzMayor of AwesometownPictures on my Tumblr
Today my free GPS Extension Kit arrived in the mail from ASUS for my Transformer Prime. GPS has never been a feature I weighed when considering tablet purchases, but since ASUS was offering the extension module for free, I figured I should pick one up in case I ever sell the Prime.
There's nothing subtle about the extension module. It clicks onto the bottom of the Prime using the same connections as the keyboard dock and cover. This, of course, is a huge issue with the unit: you can't use an origami cover or the keyboard dock when using the GPS module. The only way you'll be able to use your tablet with this attached is laying it down or holding it in your hands.
Color-wise it matches nicely with my "champagne" silver Prime. It has ridiculous huge stickers all over it with the requisite FCC, CE and other certification logos, along with instructions to update your tablet firmware prior to use (no update was needed or available in my case). One sticker also warns you to remove the extension kit when not in use save battery power. I'll be peeling these off post haste.
The extension kit has a locking mechanism similar to the slider found on the keyboard dock, which keeps the module firmly attached to the Prime. There's also a tiny arrow printed on the module to help you line it up with the ports on the Prime (just like the keyboard dock).
The Prime's GPS performance is dramatically improved with the extension kit. Without the kit installed, my Prime detected 0 GPS satellites using GPS Test by Crosschart Limited when I was sitting next to the bay window in my house. (As a side note, my Galaxy Nexus only registered one satellite using the same software).
With the GPS Extension Kit installed, the Prime quickly locked on to 9 satellites with reasonable strength. GPS Test was able to pinpoint my location with a reported 42 feet accuracy level. That's a pretty significant improvement.
I checked to see if there was any improvement with Wi-Fi signal strength using the Extension Kit but there wasn't any.
For people who have a use case requiring reliable GPS data on their tablet, ASUS has come through with a solid fix for the Transformer Prime (and they did it for free!). As long as you don't want to use your cover or keyboard with it, that is.05-08-2012 10:20 PMLike 1
- Mine came in the mail about May 3rd. At home out in the country, my AT&T cell won't get a signal, but riding bareback my Prime will routinely find 7 satellites and locate me within 40-75 feet, all in under a minute.. With the dongle attached, it finds about 10 more satellites and locates me within 20-40 feet. Takes a minute or two longer though.05-10-2012 10:13 AM

I was fine with the deadlifts; I lifted 73 pounds and could have done a lot more, but I wanted to start low so I could learn the right form and avoid injury. The walking lunges were KILLER - I only had a 10 pound weight and I wanted to die by the third lap around.
I was a little confused by the prison walks / wall balls / farmer's carry. I didn't realize we were doing it for time, or I would have gone a lot faster. Also, we were apparently only supposed to go down and back and down, instead of 3 full laps each time (so I did more than double of what I was supposed to do before Katie realized what happened at let me stop). The wall balls (throw a medicine ball up in the air, catch as you crouch, pop up and throw, repeat) were actually the hardest part for me; it was really hard to keep going and not stop. Farmer's carry (hold kettlebells down at your sides like you are carrying buckets and walk) was the easiest, as my years of pack mule mom training came in handy. The prison walks (that thing the girl in the pic below is doing) were kind of a bitch after all of those lunges.

Awesome book, started seeing results really quick!
Come on, what woman does not want to learn about keeping skin looking fresh and healthy and getting rid of those dreaded lines, wrinkles and blemishes?! Useful book, i was able to implement the advice almost immediately and saw some results within a week. Awful cover ha, but the book and narration is excellent!
- Jays
Yes! The advice is this book is great and it's really encouraged me to take better care of my skin. I have to admit that pampering myself doesn't just make me look better, it also makes me feel better about myself.
The information on glycolic acid was particularly useful. Since I bought a glycolic face wash I've noticed and instant improvement of my complexion. I think I do actually look younger since starting it!

International nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) such as Oxfam America and Toronto's Rights Action are training Guatemala's local leaders to "empower" minorities and indigenous groups to denounce development of mining operations as "neo-colonial" ventures, says columnist Andrea Tunarosa.
Yet, the very nature of NGOs saves them from having a real stake in the communities they affect through their activism. NGOs can blow through town like a hurricane disrupting development and then be gone, explains Tunarosa.
The mines, on the other hand, have long-term relationships to manage. Concerned about its role in northern Guatemala, for example, Glamis Gold Ltd, which operates a gold mine there, has taken several steps to improve the community:
- It funded the construction of a local road that was not needed for the mine but was beneficial to the poor community.
- It offered to fund 32 new teaching positions to help meet the increasing demand for public education in the area.
- The company also took an unprecedented step by helping to launch an independent monitoring association that will provide environmental studies.
If Guatemala were a "global investors' oasis," as some NGOs claim, more than 50 percent of the population wouldn't be living below the national poverty line, says Tunarosa. And while they assert that the country is not ready for investments in mining, the opposite would appear to be true for the communities that have already benefited.

Martapura, South Kalimantan 13/5 (AntaranewsKalsel) - Regent Banjar Khalilurahman handed over aid to dozens of families of fire victims in Aluh-Aluh on Friday (12/5) afternoon.
"The aid is to ease the burden of fire victims so they can meet the food and beverage needs," said the regent on the sidelines of the handover of aid packages in Aluh-Aluh on Saturday.
The bupati's relief package contains basic foods, including canned fish, instant noodles, sugar, soy sauce, tea and other snacks for children who are victims of the fire.
Besides, they were distributed blankets and others for daily necessities, such as soap and toothbrushes received symbolically by the residents' representatives.
"We hope that all citizens victims of the fire can be steadfast and strong in facing this ordeal as well as accept it as destiny," said the regent who is also the cleric.
Head of Banjar Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) Sunarto said the number of people who were victims of fire 84 people who inhabit as many as 30 homes. They consist of 23 family.
"All the houses were burnt down in the disaster and the number of victim 84 from 23 families," he said.
Meanwhile, the police temporarily found the cause of fire allegedly because of cigarette butts or flammable objects hit the fabric.
"Our allegation the cause is cigarette butts or other object thrown about the fabric then the fire enlarged," said Aluh-Aluh Police Chief AKP Suroto contacted Saturday evening.
Large fires hit settlements on Jalan Inpres RT 5 Aluh-Aluh Besar Village Friday (12/5) afternoon and caused 30 houses burned down.

Ben: Ink About It
"Now, he communicates through his art – it's becoming his language…"
It's snack time in Ben's art therapy group for emotionally troubled teens, but while his peers are busy munching on chips and sipping juice, Ben clutches a glue gun and carefully maneuvers it around a cardboard box.
Ben, who came to the group as a 12 year-old boy with trouble expressing his feelings, is learning a new way of speaking. He's using art in the form of pipe cleaner, felt, and glue to form the words he could never express out loud.
"If I follow the rules, I'll get what I wish for," he writes, so immersed in his project that he ends up skipping the coveted snacks altogether.
Rules and Ben didn't mix well, and his low grades and lack of friends didn't help him feel any better about himself. At home, he would stomp off in defiance and yell at his parents and sister, wanting to escape into his world of video games. His school counselor referred him to Dena, who runs an Art with Heart group for emotionally troubled teens at Sound Mental Health.
Ben, now a 14-year-old eighth-grader at a Puget Sound Middle School, has been a member of Dena's group for two years. Art with Heart's Chill & Spill and Ink About It books have helped the aspiring football player to tackle his anger.
Like a coach with a goal in mind, week after week, Dena led Ben through various pages in Chill & Spill. He completed the "Me, Myself and I" activity, which asked him to depict who he is and who he wants to be. The result was a painting showing him moving away from anger with a picture of open hands.
Weekly meditation helped him to envision a safe place inside his mind. Next, Dena led him through a collage activity in which he chose images that made him feel "powerful," and others that made him feel "powerless."
He was ready to combine his safe place with the images to create a box to symbolize what he discovered. That's when Ben had his breakthrough, huddling in a corner using pipe cleaner and glue.
"It was the combination of all that, finding the materials that felt good," Dena said.
To anyone else, the project looked like a simple cardboard box, with a clutter of magazine pictures, glue, and pipe cleaner. "To him, it was huge," Dena said.
Ben started to listen to his parents at home, and was rewarded with more time to play his video games. Things started to improve at school as well. Ben's poor grades improved so much that he was allowed to play football.
"He relaxed. He started to smile. He was starting to be not so uptight and edgy," Dena said.
Once Ben gained yards toward his progress with Chill & Spill, he tackled Ink About It. At first, the words in the book intimidated him because of his low reading skills. But the art soon won out. Dena gave Ben a gel pen, and he spent one session carefully filling in some of the many blue-and-white sketches that pepper the pages.
From there, he used some of the blank spaces to mimic the art. Soon, he drew a huge football in one of the blank spaces. He doodled designs around the ball to create the same busy, cluttered effect of Ink About It's art. "He had discovered another form of expression. In his language, he has no adjectives, no way to decorate what he's saying," Dena said. With Ink About It, Ben "took that example and ran with it. He literally began to decorate his language."
"Now, he communicates through his art – it's becoming his language," Dena said.
During one session, he created an art piece called "Sad Hall," after he'd been bullied and beaten up at school. Ben, who couldn't express the helplessness, frustration, and anger he'd felt in words, sighed in relief when he finished the piece. "I feel better," he told Dena.
It's been two years since Ben joined Dena's groups, and the 14 year-old has no immediate plans to stop.
"His mother begged me not to stop the Ink About It group because he's happier," Dena said.
NOTE: To protect the child's identity\, the image does not necessarily match the story and names may or may not have been changed.

Flight Data Recorder
The Flight Data Recorder is a straightforward Broker data stream recorder.
It records the data available to the Broker into a file on disk, which can
subsequently be played back to drive the same instruments and visual
generators as during the original recording.
The FDR is not meant to provide a full PS1 video replacement. It
cannot record internal PS1 events such as exact malfunctions. Only the data
elements available to the Broker will be captured. In practice, this means
all information required to drive Markus' External PFD and ND, Standby
Instruments, and Garry's VisualPS1. Funny effects may appear on the MCDUs
connected to the system.
InstallationDownload the .ZIP file and unzip it somewhere, for example in C:\fdr. Take care that you unzip the paths, too. You need to see three directories: bin, lib, and etc, the last one initially empty (your preferences file appears here after the first run).
You may create a shortcut for the bin\fdr.exe program if you wish.
You may let Windows know that .fdr files belong to the flight data recorder:
OperationWill be extended shortly
Pretty straightforward. You can press buttons or select menus to operate the flight data recorder just as you would operate a video recorder. After you stop a recording, you will be asked to provide a file name. Cancel means 'throw away the recording'. Playback can be paused and rewound to the beginning.
With especially VisualPS1 needing some time to reposition, the FDR will pause after you load a new playback file or rewind the current file. If you don't want to have to press the Play button yourself, you can switch the FDR to Autostart mode. With Autostart, the FDR will wait 5 seconds for VisualPS1 to reposition and then start the playback.
At this moment (2005-12-28), the latest Broker (1.6) has a feature to switch off PS1 updates while the FDR plays back. This is automatic and means that you do not have to stop PS1 at all if you run Broker 1.6. However, IPC does not listen to this command yet! And with IPC and FDR both fighting over bus mastering, you can expect very, very weird effects.
So, until IPC listens to the update enable/disable commands, do not run IPC or WinPS1 together with the FDR in playback mode.
Example FDR filesWill be provided shortly

First days in Cebu
Cebu Travel Blog› entry 2 of 2 › view all entries
October 28th, 2006 – by: kth5
There Chuchill organized me a room in San Jose Pension House. The room wasn't anything special even if you pay attention to the local standards. A somewhat comfy bed, a small TV I would probably not use anyway and a bathroom.
After putting my stuff down and having a shower we left for some food. If you intend to find a restaurant in Cebu, that's sheer impossible. You can chose from tons of fast food chain like imbisses and many tiny street vendors. We decided to go with the latter and I finally tried Tempura and a few other things I can't even pronounce the names of. Food is quite inexpensive, usually you can get enough for two including drinks for around P100 if you don't get something too fancy.
Having filled my stomach, the jetlag of 6 hours caught me and I went back to the pension house to call it a day.
The next day - after oversleeping for a few hours - I finally got out of the Pension House again. This time in broad daylight, wonder why I didn't realize it the day before but it's damn hot down here. At about 32C with a totally cloud free sky in the burning sun, I made my way outside. Struggling with my sweat we got to the first thing in sight to have breakfast. This time it was no street vendor but instead I let myself dragged into one of those McDonalds like Jollibee restaurants, or so I thought. They have more than just burgers and other unhealthy and icky tasting stuff and last but not least aircon! You can get one of the so called "Super Meals" for around P120 with a softdrink or coffee. I took the one called "Bangus Belly", as the name says it contains a filet of a common fish of in the area: the bangus. Anyway, even though it was a little salty it's worth a try. If you're into that sort of thing, heh.
Once we got out of there the heat struck back and I experienced what I didn't notice the night before. Heavy air due to smoke procuded by tons of cars w/o CAT plus loads of junk lying around all over the streets. Of course, no law describes to use CATs so noone does and no trashbin as far as the eye can see. Ironicaly it's not far anyway during rush hour smog. If you ever see people covering their faces with handkerchiefs or towels, now you know why. The worst of it I experienced only about 30 Minutes later when I started to sweat again while walking. My skin started to itch badly due to the pollution. Anyway, we got into SM Mall on the way to have a coffee and discuss how to go on in the next few days.
Since we weren't able to do too much due to my quarreling with the environment, I got back the pension early, had yet another shower & went to sleep almost instantly.
Man, what a day! :)

It would be a mistake to think that Rove made a 'mistake'.
You get the leader 'big money' wants you to have.
Great read, thanks for posting it.
Rove is talented, but I think his mistake was more substantial than just not responding to Democrat charges. I think Karl is a "play as it lies" pol. He looks at the landscape and figures out how do I win given the current political climate. That's why he favors going after the illegal vote and comes up with gimmicks like "compassionate conservative". Reagan, on the other hand, sought to change the political climate by converting people to his point of view. Reagan was thinking ahead and placing his shots so that he didn't have to contend with a bad lie.
I would need to spend five minutes in his presence because it's just not that obvious from where I'm standing.
Wow...I did not realize exactly where the weapons had gone. Today the majority of all people believe that the intelligence was wrong.
Is this true:
"Why wasn't the Bush administration citing Gen. James Clapper, the Director of the National Imagery and Mapping Agency, who said that satellite imagery proved conclusively that shortly before the war's outbreak, Iraq had transferred its weapons of mass destruction to Syria? Why wasn't it quoting Gen. Georges Sada, deputy chief of Saddam's air force, or Gen. Moshe Ya'alon, Israel's chief-of-staff, both of whom also claimed that Saddam's weapons had been transferred to Syria? "
Sigh. "Blame Bush/Rove" yet again. Try blaming the idiotic American electorate, who thinks they will get something for nothing; try blaming ACORN, who lie and steal; and above all, try blaming the boob McCain, who refused to run a race.
As I recall, the WMD were shipped to the "Beeka Valley" in Syria, and it was talked about all over the internet. Jet planes were uncovered from under the sand, and a huge find of yellow cake uranium was even found and shipped to Canada, according to a CNN Article. But, this was no worse than not showing the clips of bwarney, maxine waters, etc. etc. refusing to fix the bad loan practices fannie/freddie that were still over at youtube.com, the last time I looked. We could have stuck the banking collapse on the democrats like a tarbaby....WT*? Makes me think a higher, and common, force was pulling the strings
Yes, President Bush and Karl Rove mishandled some aspects of the war PR campaign. Nevertheless, it's a real stretch to blame Karl Rove for the election of Obama.
Ultimately, the blame lies with those millions who elected him without doing their homework. I'm not talking about the hard left who correctly expected him to govern as a socialist. I'm talking about those voters who foolishly fell for the hype and elected him expecting hope and change of a different sort.
The power to vote is a very valuable thing that should not be taken lightly. Most of the world doesn't possess it. A billion Chinese, for example, would probably love to have what millions of Americans foolishly squandered in 2008.
Well, I once thought Carter was going to be a good president, too. We're all entitled to make mistakes, and hopefully a lot of voters have now learned the hard way that votes do count.
The reason Obama is President? John McCain was the Bob Dole of the 21st Century.
I blame W.
Here's just a few others that elected hussein obama:
George Soros - economic terrorist that should be sent to Malaysia for trial. We demand other nations send us terrorists against the USA but we harbor terrorists like Soros. I am sure that there are other nations that would want him on trial.
Soros acts like he gives a damn about the poor but yet he cause economic havoc against poor nations.
Soros also moved the HQ of his business to the Bahamas so that he wouldn't have to pay USA taxes. The punk wants so much influence on this nation but doesn't pay its taxes. Soros is a major advocate of decriminalization of drugs. The place where he has his business located is known for its drug money laundering.
Soros pulls the democrat parties wagon with organizations like moveon.org and several other extremist left groups.
David Geffen billionaire gay activist that played a major role in getting hussein obama elected.
David Axelrod did a replay of the same game that got Devel Patrick elected governor of Mass. — "Yes We Can," "Just words," etc.
Axelrod's mother used to write for a communist newspaper so is there any doubts as to his agenda?
Of course you've got your ACORN and other leftist groups that contibuted to our current economic situation (forced sub-prime loans, etc.).
And we should never forget the effort that the MEDIA made to get hussein obama elected.
That's just to name a few.
- Allowing the Democrats and media to get away with saying that the tax cuts were for the rich only.
- Not placing the subprime loan scams on the Democrats and not saying that the Republicans attempted to regulate Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac going back to 2003 but that legislation was killed by the Democrats in 2004, 2005, & 2006.
I always said that Bush's biggest fault was his unwillingness to defend himself. And this goes for just about anything.
Also Rove's plan to out-democrat the democrats when it came to spending was a bad idea too.
I'm no fan of Karl Rove, but the man who elected Obama is none other than John McCain.
The unpopularity of the war and the "Bush Lied" theme was huge in the 2006 election. It was catastrophic, but wasn't George W. Bush President of the United States at the time? You would think he had a political thought of his own and did not wait for Rove to pull the string.
I thought this article was exactly right about Rove. I'd always had the image of Rove as nothing more than a Political Animal. Even the passage cited here from his own book shows it! He says he should have done more to counter the claims Democrats were making. For the historian he & others brag on him to be, Rove evidently forgot Stalin's famous mantra that "A lie repeated often enough becomes the truth" - which is what WMD's became. Instead of that he said he decided to "focus on the (reelection) campaign". These charges he left unanswered made his campaign much more difficult than it ever would have had to be. The strategy employed by them to not answer these charges and other attacks was based on the Rove Held Principle of: "When you roll around with pigs you get dirty". Well, I guess you could say that about any enemy then - including Islamic terrorists, right Karl?. Rove's failure or disinterest in standing for his principles shows that at root, he really has no principles. He's a Political Hack - he's only interested in the optimal calculus for the greatest political expediency. One thing is true: neither he nor Bush is a true Conservative.
And in a bizarre inversion, he was the one largely responsible for trying to be gracious to the very Democrats who were out to destroy him & Bush. Rove decided on the Rodney King approach in DC- " Can't we all just get along?". Not only did it get us a Republican President Bush who forgot he even had a Veto Pen, but Rove's approach was critical in establishing within the Republican Braintrust that "working with Democrats more often" will stop the harshness of the public attacks against Republicans. That mindset of "reaching across the aisle" gave us McCain. And McCain led to the election of Obama. Conservatives felt betrayed by the Bush Spending and desire to surrender to Democrats legislatively far too often, and by McCain putting that doctrine on steroids for his campaign. Rove had a huge hand in this fallout, there is no question about it.
Neither Rove nor Dubya was a true Conservative - if they had been they never would have allowed those WMD charges, nor other attacks, to go unanswered. Bush & Rove are exactly like Bush Senior & Rockefeller: Country Club Republicans. They campaign on strategy and not principles, which is what ultimately leads to their collapse. They seek political expediency for their benefit - so they're little more than Political Animals. Their Dirty Little Secret is: both Rove & Dubya believe in the power of government to do things in people's lives- that's why they GREW IT! They thought they were above Conservative principles for the expressed purpose of making deals with Democrats trying to destroy them (like the Bush nonsense about having to surrender his Free Market Principles signing TARP so he could "save" the Free Market; if that doesn't tell you he's no Conservative nothing will). If he missed that, then Rove wasn't much of "Bushs Brain".
Interesting. I was always perplexed why the Bush administration didnt stand up to the charges made daily by liberals. Its a shame they didnt articulate what needed to be said, although a campaign could not be run smoothly by defending an unpopular war.
The Republican landscape had been badly damaged, but even with McCain, the Republicans came fairly close to taking the election. It was no "mandate" for the left.
Plenty of blame to go around, (Soros, ACORN, etc.) but Id mostly blame the deceitful MSM for keeping the truth from the people and promoting this socialist presidency.
PEOPLE HERE ON FREE REPUBLIC WERE SAYING THE SAME THING! So was at least one national publication: The Weekly Standard....
The Bush team seemed to get SO tied up in "governing", they forgot to hit back at the lies told by their critics.
Other conservatives were screaming bloody effing MURDER over the lies told by the left....we cannot let this happen again, IF we are given the opportunity to govern.
In fact, we need to start right now.
THE MASSIVE FAILURE of the "stimulus"--Obama promised unemployment at 8%. We are at 10%, essentially, right now. The only place I hear anyone mentioning the stimulus failure is on talk radio!!
Where the HELL are the Republican leaders???? That type of MASSIVE failure ought to be a mantra. Even if BO gets us to 8% unemployment, he is still FAILING......
The MSM elected Obama...just as every policy, and every syllable and tone the Republicans use is in response to the MSM.
