Unanswered: Informix Error -23103
I am getting an error while importing a database on Informix 11.50 TC8 on Windows-2003. This database has been exported from Informix 11.50 FC4 on AIX 5.3.
The same database is imported successfully on Informix 11.50 FC4 on AIX 5.3
and in Informix 9.40.TC7 on Windows-2003.
So I don't understand what is is actual cause of this failure under 11.50 TC8.
If anyone has encountered this error, please let me know how it can be fixed.
My environment setting for DB_LOCALE and CLIENT_LOCALE are as under.
Best Regards

I've seen this before - Windows and Unix locales are slightly different. I've got a database on linux which uses the euro symbol and works fine with EN_US.8859-1, but it won't import on Windows, I had to set DB_LOCALE to EN_US.8859-15.

Sex affirmation surgery is not just one surgery. It is a series of surgeries.
There are a number of different options for your sex affirmation surgery, as well as a growing number of techniques being performed around the world. You need to research all your options (surgeries, surgeons, costs and techniques) carefully to be sure you will get the results you want to have.
Evidence shows there is a high level of satisfaction for the outcome of sex affirmation surgery (Green and Fleming, 1990). There are a number of factors that contribute to your long term satisfaction. These include general health, success of the surgical procedures as well as family and social support.
To get started with surgery, you will need to think about paying for surgery. Medicare will cover some parts of the costs for Australian residents. If you intend to have surgery, it is recommended you get health insurance as soon as you can.
You will need a couple of appointments with the surgeon you choose and ask them what they need from you to consider you for surgery. Every surgeon you visit will require a separate referral from your GP.
Male sex-affirmation surgeries can be broken down into three broad areas:
- chest reconstructive surgery (also called 'top surgery'),
- reproductive surgery (also called hysterectomy and bilateral oophorectomy) and
- genital reconstructive surgery (also called 'lower surgery').
Chest Reconstructive Surgery
- Chest reconstruction 101 – written with Dr Megan Hassall
- Questions to ask your surgeon
- Choosing your chest surgeon
- Surgery and weight loss
- Chest reconstructive surgery photographs
Reproductive Surgery
This is removal of the female reproductive organs (hysterectomy and bilateral oophorectomy). Reasons for total hysterectomy include no longer having these 'female' organs in your body; it removes your risk of uterine, ovarian or cervical cancer; and you won't need any pap smears or pelvic exams.
- Testosterone and the female reproductive system
- 2005 surgery costs for hysterectomy in Queensland
- 2010 surgery costs for hysterectomy in NSW
- Hysterectomy Surgery – Andrew, Qld
Genital Reconstructive Surgery
The surgical procedures to create male genitalia, can involve a combination of one or more of the following (also called 'lower surgeries'): metoidioplasty, scrotoplasty, urethroplasty, testicular prostheses and phalloplasty.

Barbara at Cat Patches is host to the 2014 NewFO Challenge and I am joining in this year! The idea is brilliant! You blog about projects you start - not what you finished - not what's in progress. For the kick-off of the 2014 challenge go here. There's only a little time left to link up. Each month she has a linky party and if you've started something new, blog about it and link up. This fits me perfect as I start more projects than I finish!
My new project list for 2014 is below in no particular order.
I would like to make something from this book!
Either this...
and / or this...
I want to use this fabric to make a butterfly quilt. I plan to follow these instructions.
The Which Witch? wall hanging looks like it would be fun to make. I'm thinking embellishments on the shoes. What about making it dimensional by adding lace or tulle to the narrow band at the bottom of the skirt.
A purse or bag or 2 from this book! I'm in need of a new purse and the book has fantastic designs.
I have the layer cake to this wall hanging, it looks like it would be quick to make! I keep asking myself 'So why haven't you made it yet!'
The fabrics for this Chevron / zig-zag quilt are gorgeous!
And last but not least on my list is this kit. I love the fabric colors for this quilt too!
I get easily distracted and there will be more new projects to start! Yikes! But having it in a list might help me stay focused on these projects! I always start out strong in January with high expectations on quilts and sewing projects I want to make and then life kicks in! I hope joining in on the NewFO Challenge will keep me motivated and focused on these projects!
Come join in, even if you don't make it to the kick-off linky you can still join in once a month!

HOLIDAY GIFT DEAL! Order a shirt and get a Trail Blazers Club membership card for free! Offer ends Nov 28th!
It's been a hectic political season and we could all use a laugh and a beer. To that end we present you with the 'Don't Spill on Me' T-Shirt, available here for a limited time only. WE ARE ALREADY SOLD OUT OF SMALL & MEDIUMS.
Stunning male model pictured in the actual shirt above! Believe it or not, this man is nowhere near this handsome without the benefit of this awesome shirt. You too can be this handsome...
The shirts are manufactured by Next Level apparel, with a very soft 60% Cotton and 40% Polyester blend. The artwork was printed on the shirts by a local CT screen-printing company, so you're buying local! You can order with the drop down below.
What's the deal with this shirt?
Based on the Gadsden Flag, this T-Shirt has a little fun with a historical American flag, with strong roots to our original 13 colonies, America's first Navy and our first Marines! The flag was a symbol of the Revolutionary spirit of America, and ties in nicely with our state's "Still Revolutionary" tourism motto, in a tongue and cheek kind of way.
The flag continues to fly across the state, and the nation in modern days displaying a sense of independence, a rebellious nature and local pride. It means different things for different people, but for us here, it's always been a symbol of New England's individualism, occasional defiance and self-reliance. So, it is with great respect that we poke a little fun at ourselves with this new twist to an American icon.

A Self-defining North? by Maggie Bullett, Huddersfield
Walter Lippman noted in 1922 that 'for the most part we do not first see and then define, we define first and then see'. If we accept this proposition, it is apparent that how the North is defined in the imagination is at least as important as anything we consider to be objective reality.
The question is, who does the defining? This is always plural and relative and operates within many different spheres of interest, but it is probably fair to say that for centuries, the greater part of the accumulative imaginative construct of the North has been defined by those who do not reside in the North. Now, while there is a long history of the stereotyped and labelled adopting the label as their own badge, and subverting its meaning to their own cause, this approach retains the unspoken, underlying presumption that approbation remains in the gift of the other, in this case, the non-Northerner.
So, how does the North shift from the current power relationship, so that it would not be remarkable for the North, as a collective voice, to act as though it held approbation of itself within its own 'gift', rather than appealing to the non-North for acceptance? This shift, or redefining, is cultural, both with a capital C and small c. Self-approbating Northern Culture (with a capital C) could bring about a self- approbating everyday culture in the North (with a small c). In other words, Culture can be used to transform the public imagination of North from the position of an apologist, having to work for another's approval, to a position where there exists a common-sense, taken granted presumption that the North is an equal partner within a small island nation.
Therefore, as a voice, the North needs to overcome the urge to enter into combative, comparative dialogue with the South. Adopting a comparative position perpetuates the North as an entity that seeks approval of the other, and in any case, in current circumstances, the social and economic odds will nearly always be stacked against the North. Rather, the promotion through Culture (with a capital C) of a self-assured North, one that has no need to denigrate others in order to feel good about itself, begins to change how the North is defined in the everyday cultural imagination of those who have the privilege of living there. So the naïve question I would like to put is, 'is it possible for a 'North' to exist outside of being defined against a 'South'? And, if that is possible, what new types of self-definition could be opened up for our imagining?
Maggie Bullett, 01.12.2013

New England loves its clam chowder. New York City and Chicago take pride in their pizza and hot dogs. Could Washington's signature dish become the quintessentially Belgian moules frites?
Judging from the stellar shellfish of Dr. Granville Moore's Brickyard, the answer is: Absolutely. Named for the pioneering African-American doctor who once practiced in the building, Granville Moore's aligns itself with the British "gastro-pub" revolution, offering a core group of gourmet dishes to complement an extensive drink menu.
Indeed, the moules frites (mussels with fries) on hand nearly eclipse the 50-plus Belgian beers the restaurant offers.
Credit that to Teddy Folkman, former chef of The Reef in Adams Morgan, who took over the kitchen after the unexpected early departure of the previous chef.
Walking a culinary tightrope in a kitchen with only four burners, a fryer and a small grill, Folkman and his staff deliver the goods. The menu's star is the traditional moules mariniers, steamed in a fragrant white wine sauce, but Granville Moore's quirkier mussels are arguably better.
One unforgettable pot of moules arrives bathed in a walnut-arugula pesto the color of freshly cut spring grass. Even mussels skeptics will relish the thicker texture of the sauce, which crunches with hand-crushed basil and calls for soaking in extra bread once all the fish is gobbled up. The mussels in mustard sauce are less pungent but just as tasty, studded with fennel-flecked Italian sausage.
Granville Moore's joins Brasserie Beck downtown, Marvin in the U Street corridor and the rightly famed Bistrot du Coin in Dupont Circle to form a superstar lineup for moules frites in Washington. But the newest arrival to the rapidly gentrifying Atlas District of H Street NE is first and foremost a beer hall, serving Belgian brews both familiar and unsung.
You may have heard of Chimay, Kwak ale and lambic, the fruity Belgian beer made with spontaneous fermentation.
Granville Moore's slings excellent examples of all three, along with Stella Artois at $4 a glass, a bargain by comparison with its other $8 pints.
Even so, beer lovers are advised to be adventurous. Granville Moore's owner Chris Surrusco has experience with beer menus at Rustico in Northern Virginia and Capitol City Brewing Co., and his bartenders have a talent for offering the type of hops that suit your fancy.
Brasserie des Rocs is one of the most popular beers at the restaurant, and its velvety feel and smooth taste are reminiscent of competitors created by centuries-old methods. Take my word for it, order at least two of the varieties that Granville Moore's serves, and don't forget to hold your glass to the light to admire the beer's unfiltered wildness of sediment.
Finding a clear light in the downstairs dining room, however, might be a challenge. The ambience at the new gastro-pub is funky but downscale, with next to no new décor and old bars spotted on the windows. In some ways, Granville Moore's appears not yet finished growing into its overnight popularity.
Indeed, customers are advised to claim a table early, since both the upstairs and downstairs areas tend to fill up during the dinner rush and groups are given leeway to linger with extra beers after their meal. The overtaxed servers do not maintain a wait list, leaving patrons to pounce on seats when they open up.
Fortunately, the vibe among clientele is warm and welcoming, which helped when my group was asked to share a round table for five with another party. Our new friends helped finish the enormous dish of double-cooked frites that are ordered separately from pots of mussels.
Dressed in dried herbs, the frites are deliriously good with any of the six dipping sauces, though I preferred the creamy curry catsup and the stone-ground dijonnaise. The frites also appear alongside the menu's few but fine sandwiches, including a bison burger and a chicken breast bathed in decadent prosciutto. The pretzel roll on the chicken sandwich gave me a Proust-like memory of fresh croissants enjoyed in Paris.
Chef Folkman said the key to Granville Moore's is "really simple, rustic, wholesome, good-quality ingredients." I would add "hearty" to that list of adjectives, remembering the hefty Caesar salad and appetizer of silky sea scallops on a bed of lentils.
And no hearty night of beer-sipping is complete without a rich dessert to coat your stomach, as Folkman came to realize. Early word on Granville Moore's had patrons disappointed that the closet-size kitchen could not offer dessert, so the restaurant now brings in brownies homemade by the nearby Uptown Bakers. Thick as fudge and sweet enough to do without their accompanying caramel sauce, the brownies are out of this world.
With a little patience from hungry drinkers and a little daring from diners unsure about making the trek from the Hill, Granville Moore's could be well on its way to making Washington a moules frites town. Just remember to take a page from the current administration and leave no mussel behind.

The Museum is almost entirely praticable with wheelchairs.
It is one of the most important archaeological museum in the world situated in the former "Palace of the Studies" of Naples; it consists of important collections such as the Farnese one, that of the Pompeian excavations, the Egyptian one, the Epigraphic one and many other masterpieces of Greek-Roman art.
The building was begun in 1585 but only with Ferdinand IV of Borbone began to take shape the Museum itself; the renovation works were carried out first by Ferdinando Fuga, then from 1780 by Pompeo Schiantarelli and finally by Francesco Maresca, so in 1816 was instituted the "Royal Bourbon Museum".
With the Unification of Italy the complex took the name of National Museum and was enriched with new acquisitions; when in 1957 the Picture Gallery was moved to another location, the Museum became exclusively Archaeological.
On the ground floor all the rooms are occupied by the Farnese collection, with beautiful statues coming from Palazzo in Campo dei Fiori, Farnese Palace, Baths of Caracalla and Farnesina, and a wonderful collection of gems. Then there is all the statuary coming from the cities, like Pompei and Ercolano, hit by the eruption of the Vesuvius in 79 AD, and the collection of mosaics.
Curious is the so-called Secret Cabinet which houses a collection of objects and mural paintings with erotic subjects that also had religious and magical value. Belong to the Museum also the sculptures coming from the Villa of Papyri (50 in marble and 21 in bronze), the Egyptian collection, the Epigraphic collection, the Numismatic collection and the beautiful Meridiana Room.

Campaigners in London are calling for a shorter working week in the capital.
Demand a Four Day Week campaign are calling for the change to be a legal right to help workers have better mental health.
Amsterdam and Brussels already have a shorter working week and research has showed there are happier staff and increased productivity.
The campaign, recently backed by the Green Party, would be similar to conditions already implemented in cities across Europe.
Speaking to the BBC, Lianne Etkind spokesperson for Demand A Four Day Week said: "If we were to move to a three or a four day week and enable more people to use their time to do a hobby, get involved in the local communtiy and participate in local democracy, that would mean better mental health."
Thanks to the bank holiday there is a four day week this week - would you like to see them all the time?

Why are oceans least productive?
Qceans are least productive because:(i) There is insufficient radiation as sunlight decreases with the increasing depth of the ocean.(ii) Oceans are nitrogen deficient which is an important nutrient for plants.(iii) Conditions of high salinity in ocean are not favourable for all plants.(iv) There is no substratum to support plants.

SAN FRANCISCO -- There are only four catchers who have received more of Matt Cain's starts than St. Louis Cardinals manager Mike Matheny.
Matheny, who spent the final two seasons in his 13-year MLB career with San Francisco, has been behind the dish receiving pitches from Cain 15 times, ushering the Giants' horse to a 3.89 ERA and a .193 opponents batting average.
"I was very fortunate to be a part of this organization for a couple of years and watch some young careers begin, like a Matt Cain," Matheny said. "I knew Tim Lincecum was on the way. And Buster Posey through the minor league system."
Lincecum and Posey have achieved much since Matheny's departure -- two Cy Young Awards, Rookie of the Year, five All Star invites, plus the bevy of awards Posey will garner for his 2012 season that could include MVP and Comeback Player of the Year on top of the NL batting title. Matt Cain? He's does have the June 13 perfect game against Houston, but it's been very much business as usual for the man tabbed to start Game 1 of the Giants' playoffs.
Matheny was impressed with much more than just a young Cain, though.
"I was able to spend a good amount of time with Dave Righetti, with Ron Wotus and Mark Gardner," Matheny said. "And it's a quality group of people over here.
"Brian Sabean and the ownership here in San Francisco has done a great job of setting a great foundation for what this organization is all about, and the fan base has been phenomenal in their support. It was a nice place to play, and definitely learned a lot of things."
Matheny hit .239 with 16 home runs and 77 RBIs in 181 games with the Giants, earning his fourth career Gold Glove in 2005. He also won the Willie Mac Award -- voted on by the players and coaching staff for the player best exemplifying spirit and leadership.
This year's winner -- Buster Posey -- is hoping the give the '05 recipient fits in the NLCS. Each team is coming off comeback victories in their NLDS matchups.
The Cardinals, who trailed 6-0 in the elimination Game 5 and scored four runs in the ninth inning to end the Washington Nationals' season, don't have too much time to process what they've accomplished.
"It still hasn't really sunk in," Matheny said. "At least to the extent of what these guys did. The bats they put together, the innings that the bullpen threw, I mean, it was one that goes into a category like I've never seen before personally or been that closely a part of. So, it really hasn't sunk in, but that day will come.
"Right now we can't spend too much time on that, we need to get ready for the next one."
What kind of series is he expecting with the Giants?
"I see a knock-down, drag out."

China "World's Happiest Nation"
- Categories: International, News
- Date: May 30, 2011 11:55 JST
- Tags: Bizarre, China, Comparison, North Korea, Politics, Statistics, USA
China has been judged the world's happiest nation in a new international ranking of national welfare.
The ranking, as compiled by the Democratic People's Republic of Korea:
1. China (100 points)
2. North Korea (98 points)
3. Cuba (93 points)
4. Iran (88 points)
5. Venezuela (85)
Last at 203rd is the "American Empire" with a pathetic 3 points.
North Korea's high placement is attributed to the fact that "the state provides free housing, food, clothing healthcare, and other necessities, whilst jobs are allocated by the state so there is no worry of unemployment."
Incidentally, the capitalist roadsters at the OECD recently harnessed the power of flowers to rank Canada as the all-round best off running dog nation:

Unanswered: Foxpro DBF access across a network
I'm trying to access a *.dbf (foxpro) db from an ASP app, and it works just fine as long as it exists on the same machine as the web files exist (running in IIS 5.0). However, whenever I try to connect to a dbf file across the network on a different machine, I get this:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80040E37)
[Microsoft][ODBC Visual FoxPro Driver]File '******.dbf' does not exist.
At first, I thought it was because I switched from a local path to a UNC path, but I tested that by using the UNC path of the local machine, and that didn't seem to affect it any. I've given every possible permission to every possible directory, website, etc., that I can think of, but nothing seems to be working. Does anyone have any ideas or hints?

I know of a method which you can do this, or atleast you can try it...
a company called OpenLink Software provide an ODBC bridge driver, which you can use to connection to a existing ODBC DSN,
so the connection theory would be
machine 1,
OpenLink Client Driver
Machine 2,
OpenLink Request Broker -> OpenLink ODBC Agent -> Foxpro Native ODBC DSN.
The OpenLink Driver would handle the network bit, and bridge to the Foxpro DSN, which would connect to the DBF file.
If you chose to have a go, visit http://www.openlinksw.com for the drivers.
you will want Multi Tier, with an ODBC Bridge Agent.
as another little point, this will also allow you to connect from a non windows based platform.
*the Broker and ODBC Agent will need to be installed on the same machine as the connecting Foxpro DSN you intend to use.

Sure you can...
We have NT4 servers, and we MAP drives from other servers to the local machine. Yes, you have to have all the rights and passwords correct. Then we have no problem using ASP (I think we have IIS version 4) to call a FoxPro EXE (compiled as COM compliant) which is used to open the table and get what we need, no problem at all.
USE \\otherserver\mapdir\thetable.dbf
If you are trying to open the table directly from ASP code, I had the impression that it can't be done with Microsoft's version of ASP?
That's about all I can say, as any more complicated than that and it would be beyond me...

Re: Sure you can...
That's what I wanted to do, but we're kind of lazy and didn't want to set up DCOM on the machine where the db resides just so we could access a single COM+ component across the network. Anyway, we run about 15-20 web apps internally, and none of them use COM+, so I had a hard time convincing the network guys that this one app needed it. Actually, I'm kind of lazy myself and didn't really want to fool around with the COM environment for one app.
So we took the chump's way out and put the app on the same machine as the db, then masked the URL so the users didn't know which machine it was on. It's a web app on our intranet, and the big boys upstairs are paranoid about users hacking into the wrong server. Thus the URL masking.
Sure, you can access any database from ASP using ADO and an ODBC or OLEDB connection, as long as the database supports it, and you configure the db objects with the correct permissions...I'm a little confused though - what do you mean by "Microsoft's version of ASP"? What other versions are there? Thanks for the hint anyway, even though it's about 3 months too late

I currently live in London, England, surrounded by books and art supplies, and dreaming of the day I can write full time instead of working at the 9 - 5 grind. WolfSong is the first in a planned trilogy of books set in the Crescent.
Review by:
R.M. Mendez
on Dec. 03, 2011 :
A very unique story based on an old concept. I feel this book should be written as a script. I would certainly be the first to go see the movie. Very ingenious, I came to really care for some of the characters. I don't like to retell the story in a review and spoil the surprises for the next reader. I will say this is an excellent read, of which I highly recommend. Bravo! Can't wait for the next book.
(reviewed 22 days after purchase)
Review by:
on June 14, 2011 :
WolfSong is a tale about an area called the Crescent. The primary three races are the hawk, werewolves, and humans (there are also fey, but in this book they play a smaller role). The story for the most part follows around a squad of hawks as they hunt down a rogue werewolf that led to the deaths of two of their own. There is also a young werewolf man who is with the squad helping to track down the fugitive.
This is actually a pretty decent sized book especially for .99 and it only took me two days to finish. The story is very solid and the characters are, for the most part, very well developed. The only real issue I had was there were a few times that a character was introduced with very little introduction and I will admit to some confusion trying to remember if I should know that name or if it was someone new. I am really hoping that in the next book we get a little more background into the world and the interactions between the races.
I for one will be sure to pick up a copy of the second book as soon as its available to see what new adventures await this band of warriors.

on June 07, 2011 :
For fans (and non-fans!) of werewolf stories!
Wolfsong (Tales from the Crescent) takes place on a world populated by a variety of species, dealing mainly with hawks, humans, and werewolves. The reader follows the exploits of one squad of hawks. After suffering a tragedy at the hands of a renegade werewolf, the squad swears to hunt the rogue down with the help of another werewolf.
I have never been a fan of werewolf stories, nor do I actively pursue looking for them, but I won a copy of this ebook on a blogger's website and decided to give it a try. At times I found myself backtracking a bit as I wasn't sure if I missed an introduction of a character. There was a time when I wasn't sure who was who, and what they were supposed to be doing, but you know what? That's on me, I'm sure. I was a bit distracted. It's a testament to the world Sked created. I was completely caught up in the story, yearning for the hawks to exact a little retribution, meaning I couldn't wait for the rogue werewolf to get his comeuppance. I would have loved to learn more about the origins of the Hawks and how they came to become the peacekeepers of the Crescent. I'm really hoping the author will go into more detail in the second book, about the history of the species, as she did some an awesome job of creating a highly detailed world I could easily visualize.
If you like reading about alternate worlds where other creatures exist, you need to give this one a try! Take it from someone that doesn't like werewolves, you'll like this story!
Great job, J.H. Sked! I'm looking forward to the next story in this series!

In memory of a loving family friend
I honestly thought this week was going to be a normal week. However, I received a text from my dad while I was at work on Monday that a former neighbor from my youth, Jane Huffman, had passed away.
Now, I've written about the Huffmans before. Bill in particular is one of the people that I credit with teaching me the value of working hard to earn my way. While I've given Bill some attention, I would like to do the same for Jane in memory of the wonderful woman she was.
Let me just say my family was pretty close with Bill and Jane. I worked for Bill every spring with his apple orchard, and the two would give us a place to get off the bus when my brothers and I were younger too. Picture the really nice neighbors in just about every movie out there. That is the best way to describe Bill and Jane.
I can say for a fact that Jane was one of the nicest people I ever had the pleasure of knowing. She was always ready to listen to anything you had to say and I honestly don't believe there was a mean bone anywhere close to her body throughout her life. Jane was the kind of woman you could talk to for hours without realizing how much time had passed. In fact, one of the shared memories I have with my brothers involved just that happening.
It was during a day of work picking up the pruned branches from the apple orchard for Bill and I had been thirsty. Whenever we would stop by, Jane would always offer us a Pepsi, and at that time I had been craving one. Upon getting my nice cold Pepsi (it had been quite warm if I remember correctly), I struck up a conversation with Jane. Before I knew it, we were out on the back porch, laughing, talking and generally just enjoying our talk. However, something that didn't quite come to mind at the time was the fact that while my two brothers were working hard, I was simply sitting there. If I remember correctly, I only left once it was time for us to go for the day. In a similar outcome to the previous outcome I have written about when it comes to Bill, I received significantly less than my brothers for understandable reasons.
Jane was also a very avid baker. It became a tradition for us to look forward to the holidays just to get some kind of tasty treat she made special, just for us. My family was always given a container of snacks that was lucky to survive more than a day, and it was something we were always thankful for.
That was just the way she was, entirely selfless and from my experience, seeing the best in everybody.
In her obituary, Jane is described "she encouraged, loved and changed everyone who crossed her path with her loving, kind spirit." This is something I can attest to, as I can say without a doubt that I wouldn't be the person I am today if not for the guidance and support she gave me growing up.

So I finished up. Just last night at about midnight I merged all my chapters into one big manuscript(thanks, Scrivener) and sent it on over to Word to format. I came up with a title finally: Assignment 7: Abandon Hope and that last thing I needed for the end came together. Than I crawled into bed with a splitting headache and woke up this morning with a full-on cold, my nose running like a faucet. It was singularly anticlimactic.
I am calling this version Draft 5. But the only other draft I wrote all the way to the end was draft zero as I learned to call it from Justine Larbalestier. And it was truly a zero, horrible thing. But essentially it built my story and from that came my plot. My second draft only made it half way through. At the time I had some kind of meta narrator who was super self-conscious and a little bit of a pain. I didn't have the skills to pull it off. So I started draft three in the first person. Actually I did the first chapter both in first and third to try it out (third sans annoying narrator). And I chose fist person. That time I got over halfway through and I met my writing partner Andy. Together we started over and gave him Draft 4 a little chunk at a time. He was there with me, holding my hand(not literally) through the worst. Finally the book started to get better. (Thanks, Andy.) For Draft 5, I cut the first two chapters, totally rebuilt the middle, rewrote the new first chapter twice and weaved in all the threads(I hopei. Wrote a new first page several times. Fixed Mother who was a wreak. Fixed Duane and Dwight,for that matter, and as long as I'm making the list, I hope I fixed Heather. Now I'm here, ready to give it away whole. This will be the first time anyone reads a viable version of this book. And I expect that there will still be a lot left to fix. So, alas, no fanfare, no fireworks or champagne. But it is nice to sit on the couch and blog, while just real messy life waits, without messy novel life hanging over my head.
I want to welcome Paul as a follower PMM style. Thanks for signing up! He has a blog with beautiful pictures. A great moose sighting(those don't happen here in Minneapolis) and great writing advice. I went to his blog just now for the URL and it was titled momentum. That word came up in the final edits of my final chapter last night. It was a part of a phrase that I had written early in the writing of the book but it had never made the way in. I discovered I was writing toward it. Process is a crazy thing.
I love thinking about momentum as a writing term. There is power in a moving object!

This DGA category has traditionally been one of the industry's most accurate barometers of who will win the Best Director Academy Award – but Affleck was not nominated by the Oscar's Directors Branch. When asked backstage by Deadline if he thinks the Academy Of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences wishes it had nominated him for a directing Oscar, Affleck stayed classy: "I have nothing but respect for the Film Academy.

'Law & Order' Boss Dick Wolf Praises 'Svu' Episode Featuring Mike Tyson
2 February 2013 9:50 PM, PST
Dick Wolf, creator of the Law & Order franchise, has weighed in on the controversial upcoming episode of Law & Order: Svu, which guest stars former boxer Mike Tyson in his first acting gig playing someone other than himself. Tyson's casting has come under attack from advocate groups protesting the involvement of a convicted rapist (Tyson served three years for a 1991 incident involving a Miss Black America pageant contestant) on a show dedicated to sex crime victims. In the Svu episode, titled Monster's Legacy, Tyson plays Reggie Rhodes, a murderer on death row whose violent actions may in part be the byproduct of sexual abuse as a child. His case attracts the attention of Benson (Mariska Hargitay) and defense attorney Bayard Ellis (Andre Braugher) during an Svu investigation. Also guest starring in the episode is Ed Asner.

2 February 2013 7:42 PM, PST
Skyfall and James Bond were the big winners tonight as the Art Directors Guild handed out its 17th Annual Excellence in Production Design Awards for 2012. Unlike the Academy, the Adg divides production design for film honors into in three distinct categories — Period Film, Fantasy Film, and Contemporary Film — allowing Oscar rivals Anna Karenina and Life Of Pi to both take home top trophies. Meanwhile, Skyfall and its production designer Dennis Gassner took the Contemporary Film honors during the awards ceremony at the Beverly Hilton hosted by Paula Poundstone, who kept the stylish below-the-line crowd rolling with trade-oriented zingers throughout the night. (The Adg loves her — it's Poundstone's fourth consecutive year doing her outsider stand-up comic routine as emcee.) Earlier in the evening, the Bond franchise's production gurus Gassner, Ken Adam, Peter Lamont, and Allan Cameron were honored with the guild's Cinematic Imagery Award, recognizing the longest-running »
Ratings Rat Race: 'Undercover Boss' Posts Season's Best, 'Shark Tank' Up, 'NAACP Awards' Hits 4-Year High
2 February 2013 9:35 AM, PST
Coming back after last Friday's repeats, the end of the week brought strong numbers for CBS last night. Undercover Boss (1.9/6) was even with its last original two weeks ago but the reality show had its biggest viewership of the season with a new high of 9.86 million. CSI:ny (1.5/5) was down a tenth from its last new show on January 18.

CBS won the night in total viewership and among Adults 18-49 but ABC was just a nudge behind in the key demo.

Global Showbiz Briefs: Oz UltraViolet, 'Argo' In Iran, 'Cavegirl', Fremantle
1 February 2013 10:51 PM, PST
Australia Distribs Confident Of Fast Take-off For UltraViolet The UltraViolet format launches in Australia on May 1, a joint effort from the majors and independent distributors which they are confident will avoid the pitfalls which plagued the technology's introduction in the U.S. Key elements of the Australian launch include a unified marketing campaign, the participation of all distributors except Disney, which has yet to join the Uv bandwagon, and the support of dominant retail chains, home entertainment retailers and digital download services. The UltraViolet Working Group, which represents Universal Sony, Fox, Warner, Paramount, Roadshow and Hopscotch eOne, predicts 300,000 Australian homes will sign up for Uv accounts by October 31. Australia still has a very healthy DVD rental business, partly because pay-tv penetration is a relatively low 30%, Netflix and Hulu haven't entered the market and the Svod business is tiny.

Post Mortem: What Led To 'Do No Harm's Historic Ratings Flop
1 February 2013 10:25 PM, PST
In the days leading to last night's premiere of NBC's new drama Do No Harm, tracking was soft, with awareness weak across the board and intent to see below average, leading to modest ratings expectations. Rival networks were predicting a premiere 18-49 rating a little below the 2.0 that fellow midseason NBC drama Deception recently opened to, with a 1.8 rating considered a reasonable target. But Do No Harm came in at a 0.9, the lowest in-season premiere rating for a series on the Big 4 broadcast networks. Ever. It was even lower than the dismally rated newsmagazine Rock Center With Brian Williams averaged in the Thursday 10 Pm hour (1.0) this season. Do No Harm's viewership was a paltry 3.1 million viewers. The shocking underperformance was reminiscent of the fall 2010 debut of Fox's drama Lone Star. Launching behind House with a major marketing campaign behind it, the well-reviewed drama was projected to »
Ovation Lays Off La Staffers Following Time Warner Cable Axe
1 February 2013 9:29 PM, PST
Exclusive: Ovation laid off employees in its Santa Monica office Friday, a month after Time Warner dumped the arts channel from its lineup citing poor ratings and a less-than-compelling programming slate. Reps would not confirm the size of today's staff cuts but sources say layoffs hit 20-25 employees — almost a fourth of its 95-person corps. Chief Creative Officer Robert Weiss confirms to Deadline that the layoffs are the first wave of a company-wide reorganization that will affect its La, Chicago, and New York offices as Ovation whittles its resources in order to relaunch stronger programming initiatives in 2013 and 2014, a must if the six-year-old cable arts outpost is going to survive the Time Warner blow-off. Ovation's 2012 slate was light on original programming (A Chance To Dance, Motor City Rising) but Weiss says that razing the ground will allow Ovation to strategically rebuild its ranks, with promotions and key senior hires to come. »
'Vampire Diaries' Spinoff 'The Originals' Casts A Witch
1 February 2013 9:03 PM, PST
Exclusive: Daniella Pineda (Fitzgerald Family Christmas) has landed a regular role in the potential Vampire Diaries spinoff The Originals, which will be introduced as an upcoming episode of Tvd that airs April 25. The Originals stars Tvd's Joseph Morgan, Daniel Gillies and Phoebe Tonkin reprising their roles. Written by Tvd co-creator/executive producer Julie Plec, The Originals centers on the Original family of vampires, as Klaus (Morgan) returns to the supernatural melting pot that is the French Quarter of New Orleans — a town he helped build centuries ago — and is reunited with his diabolical former protégé Marcel. Elijah (Gillies), intent on helping his self-destructive brother find redemption, must side with Marcel's enemies in order to keep Klaus in line. Pineda will play Sophie, a witch whose magic has been silenced but not snuffed. A leader and a sexy, sharp-tongued social force, she is quietly sowing the seeds of a revolution amongst her peers. »

Oprah's Own Sued For Sex Discrimination By Former Executive
1 February 2013 6:44 PM, PST
Own's former senior director of Scheduling and Acquisitions today sued the Oprah Winfrey founded network for sex and disability discrimination. In her complaint (read it here) for unspecified but wide ranging damages, Carolyn Hommel is also claiming the company intentionally didn't pay her out vacation time and overlooked her for an expected promotion to VP at the company because of her pregnancy. In seeking a jury trial, the plaintiff alleges that she suffered from "acts of oppression, fraud, or malice" from defendants Own and Michael Scott Garner, the network's Svp of Planning, Scheduling and Acquisitions. "Hommel has suffered and will continue to suffer damages in terms of lost wages, lost bonuses, lost benefits, and other pecuniary loss according to proof Hommel has also suffered and will continue to suffer anxiety, worry, embarrassment, humiliation, mental anguish, and severe emotional distress," says the 19-page suit filed in La Superior Court Friday. »
Kevin Dunn Joins HBO Series 'True Detective', CBS Pilot 'Mom' Adds Regular
1 February 2013 6:41 PM, PST
Kevin Dunn has been tapped for a major recurring role on Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson's upcoming eight-episode HBO drama series True Detective. The high-concept project is described as an elevated serial narrative with multiple perspectives and time frames. It centers on two detectives, Rust Cohle (McConaughey) and Martin Hart (Harrelson), whose lives collide and entwine during a 17-year hunt for a serial killer in Louisiana. The investigation of a bizarre murder in 1995 is framed and interlaced with testimony from the detectives in 2012, when the case is reopened. Dunn will play Rust and Martin's boss, the fair but tough 3rd Squad Homicide Commander Maj. Ken Quesada. Dunn, repped by the Gersh Agency and Lighthouse Entertainment, already is recurring on another HBO series, comedy Veep, as the President's Chief of Staff. On the big screen, he will next be seen in The Frozen Ground, Jobs and Diego Luna's Chavez. »

Fox Resurrects Plastic Surgery Makeover Series 'The Swan' With Celebrity Special
1 February 2013 5:40 PM, PST
Fox's 2004 extreme makeover reality series The Swan is coming back in a celebrity version. The network has greenlighted Celebrity Swan, a two-hour special to air later this year. I hear FremantleMedia and producer Arthur Smith, who were behind the original plastic surgery series, will be back for the special, which will feature female celebrities looking to reinvent themselves for a comeback. They will undergo a physical, psychological and career "extreme makeover" with the help of a coach, therapist, trainer, cosmetic surgeons and a dentist as cameras follow them through the transformative process. Casting is currently underway through The Conlin Co. and no celebrities have been set, though I've heard the names of former White House intern Monica Lewinsky and Happy Days alumna Erin Moran as possibilities. Production is slated to begin this spring. The Swan was created by Nely Galán, and her company Galan Entertainment will be producer on the celebrity special. »
'Justified' Stuntwoman Sues Sony For Negligence Over On Set Injuries
1 February 2013 5:23 PM, PST
A stuntwoman who says she was injured on the set of Justified during a late night shoot in 2011 today sued Sony Pictures and various individuals connected with the FX series. Citing "severe and permanent physical and mental injuries," Lisa Hoyle and her husband Robert Jakubik have filed a suit (read it here) for Negligence, Premises Liability and Loss of Consortium for injuries the Stuntchicks employee suffered during a car crash stunt on February 3, 2011 at Santa Clarita Studios. While Hoyle and her husband don't specify any dollar amount in their complaint, they are certainly looking for more than loose change. The nine-page filing seeks general damages "in an amount to be proven at trial" as well as loss of earnings, loss of earning capacity, legal fees, "medical and related expenses" and "other and further general and special damages in a sum according to proof at the time of trial" and »

Unanswered: yyyy-mm-dd format probs
I know very little SQL and I am using phpMyAdmin to upload a text file to my database.
The text file contains dates in the format d/m/yy (so 1st feb would be 1/2/04 without any leading zeros). And it appears that they have to be in yyyy-mm-dd format in the database.
How can I upload this text file so the dates will insert correctly into the date fields?
Is there some SQL code that can do this? However I did try to use SQL before to upload my text file, but couldn't get it working, hence the reason I got phpMyAdmin.
Thanks in advance.

GGGGGgrrrrrrrr!!! Aaaaaarrrrrggghhhh!!! I have lost my long response to you 2x now because the system complained I was not logged in and then dumped my post.
In short to summarize, though... I had a similar problem HERE but it was the reverse. You may be able to use something like PHP's strtodate() function but I think you'd still have to use substr() to get the correct format.
If you are not a programmer, you can probably just use Word/Excel to split the dates into 3 columns, add preceding 0's and 19xx/20xx characters, rearrange columns to yyyymmdd order, and remove delimiters.
I hope this helps.

Here's veteran NFL referee Jeff Triplette before overtime in the San Diego Chargers vs. Denver Broncos game, giving a very poor explanation of overtime rules that were nowhere near correct to begin with.
A video or other embedded content has been hidden. Click here to view it.
The highlight for me is the look on the face of Takeo Spikes(notes) (you can see it on the bottom right, despite this video apparently being shot by someone 18 inches tall) right after Triplette drops this clear, concise explanation:
Each team must have the opportunity to possess the football ... and score. 'Kay? So if you go down ... you got it?
Nope. I don't think anyone's got it. I think everyone is thinking, "I don't understand what's happening at all, and I hope this man isn't having a stroke."
Mistakes happen, and Jeff Triplette was in no danger of ruining his reputation as a wordsmith. They did play the overtime period under the correct sudden-death rules -- not that it would have mattered, as both the Broncos and Chargers both had multiple possessions, because neither offense is very good. And Triplette did correct himself later, at least to the fans in the stadium, during a commercial break.

Blessed Share "Headache" with Stereogum
II out April 28th via Kingfisher Bluez (CA) and Cointoss Records (US)
Announce North American Tour Dates for May through July
photo credit: Jaimi Wainwright
Listen to "Headache"
Blessed could just be Western Canada's hardest working band. The Abbotsford (a suburb of Vancouver) based quartet are getting ready to release their phenomenal new EP II on April 28th via Kingfisher Bluez (Canada) and Cointoss Records (US) and they are sharing first single "Headache" today with Stereogum. Blessed's artful post-punk and twitchy indie rock sound has earned the band comparisons to everyone from Radiohead and Television to This Heat and Ought. The band's songwriting is brilliantly locked in and carefully constructed. "Headache" is vibrant, angular, and incredibly focused, blending together influences from krautrock and post-punk to progressive rock and agitated art-pop.
Stereogum called the single, "a fidgety post-punk jamboree with chord strums that cut like sharp-edged corners and mimic the sound of angrily joggling a locked or jammed door. "Headache" also contains clear, jarring guitar lines, arpeggiated sequences convey euphoric urgency, and sporadic articulations of short phrases like "poor circulation" and "mass incorporation," which could very well be the cause of the Vancouver quartet's cranium irritation."
Speaking about "Headache," Drew Riekman (guitar/vocals) shared:
"I remember we were driving somewhere in Ontario when I was writing the lyrics on my phone. We had been driving for an immense amount of time, it may have been coming out of Northern Ontario which in my opinion is the worst drive in Canada, despite it's beauty. If you're not in the mood to be doing it, it can be grating. I was dealing with a general anxiety, a small headache, not enough water, passing by a bunch of identical houses and new developments entering southern Ontario. It was just sentence fragments that encapsulated a million tiny outside forces creating a single anxious feeling."
Blessed's self-titled debut earned praise from Stereogum, Noisey, Exclaim, and more, and the band played a whopping 91 shows throughout Canada and the US (which would have been 111 if not for visa troubles that derailed an East Coast tour). The band are showing no signs of slowing down either with a string of North American tour dates this Spring/Summer that stretches from May 5th to July 15th. Blessed are the type of band to play the road may lead them and the band are amazing audiences one show at a time.

A currency peg, sometimes referred to as a [[Fixed exchange rate|fixed exchange rate]], is a kind of exchange rate policy wherein a country's domestic currency is only allowed to fluctuate within a narrow range (usually between -1% to +1%) against the value of another currency.
Currency pegging is usually done by countries who wish to stabilize their global trade operations. By using a currency peg, [[Risk|risk]] caused by exchange rate fluctuations of businesses involved in international trade is reduced. This kind of exchange rate policy is very useful for countries with robust trade industries.
China, the Bahamas, and Marshall Islands have pegged their currencies to the U.S. dollar; Niger and Senegal to the French franc; and Bangladesh, Czech Republic and Thailand to a basket of several select currencies.


text: I'm installing six runs of cable ("RG59SD" from Liberty Wire & Cable - libertycable.com) from one side of a room (computer) to another side of the same room (A/V rack). The room is being finished by myself, so these cables are fed through drilled wood studs along the wall. These cables are 75 ohm, and used by installers at my local high-end A/V retailer. Of these six cables, three are for component video RGB. One is for digital audio (SPDIF), and two for Left/Right analog audio. Each of these runs will measure 20 feet (wall jack to other wall jack). Now all of these cables will have RCA type ends (crimped on by myself), as all these cables types normally do. As it stands, I will just hang these ends out of a wall-plate specifically intended for this. I will leave about three feet of slack so that the ends may reach my equipment. Here's the thing -- I would rather this have a more finished/integrated look, and install a 6-gang plate on the wall. Into the back of this plate (inside the wall), the six cables with RCA ends will plug in; and on the front of the plate, I simply plug in my A/V cables to my equipment. Home Depot has 6-gang modular plates from Leviton that I can assemble using RCA to RCA modules to create a jack like I described above. So I'd buy two 6-gang wall plates, and 12 RCA to RCA modules (same combination at both ends). The burning question is: are these Leviton-branded modules (at $6 CDN a piece) too low-quality to use for this set up? I would assume the audio portion would be ok, but the video? Perhaps there is a better way to do the ends? Keep in mind that I don't need super-incredible quality, and can't spend a lot of money. This is just for connecting my computer's video and audio to my TV/stereo across the room. It's for games. Thanks for any help, hopefully you made it this far and still understand what I'm asking!!

"Myths are very important…They are metaphors that allow us to know things we otherwise could never know." -Joseph Campbell
So here you are, having taken a deep breath, perhaps shed a tear, felt a tightness in your stomach or a lump in your throat…you have realized that you need something to happen, that something has to change, that things just don't seem right…and maybe someone out there has the answers you seek.
You are entirely correct about most of these things, otherwise you wouldn't be here…However, about those answers…Those answers actually lie somewhere within you. The real challenge is to have the courage to take that journey of self-exploration.
Luckily, by engaging in psychotherapy, you won't be alone on your journey. You will have a guide, a companion, someone to be a second pair of eyes, ears, and also a voice to help express what until now has been hidden, misunderstood, or fallen on deaf ears.
You will enter a safe space, a liminal environment in which one can explore freely and without consequence, as your experiences, thoughts, and emotions will be allowed to surface naturally, to be held and treasured, and explored in a manner that you are comfortable with.
This is not to say that it will be easy, that your therapist will not challenge you…but as you develop a therapeutic relationship a genuine relationship your inner world will be revealed, reflected, validated…perhaps for the first time. Your therapist will not be making interpretations or judgments, but look to you to disclose as well as discover your own unique meanings, as YOU are the expert on your own experience.
You will be able to encounter difficult personal material creatively, as it is through creativity that we can truly discover ourselves. When we are creative, we act spontaneously, acting on instinct, instincts which reside at the core of our being. It may be difficult to access this creativity, as our society teaches us boundaries, limitations, how we 'should' behave, think, express ourselves (or not). Your therapist will teach you, and discover along with you, ways in which your true self can emerge, whether it be through writing, drawing, painting, music, dramatic play, role-play, embodiment, or simply in having the experience of being heard.
You will begin to develop new relationships to problems and obstacles, gaining new perspectives and alternatives. You will become more aware physically and emotionally, no longer feeling so overwhelmed or 'stuck'. You will develop a stronger sense of self, self-acceptance, and autonomy, allowing you to reach your full potential, a potential you probably never thought was possible. You will discover tools and coping methods that work best for you, as well as improve communication skills with both loved ones and new acquaintances.
Most importantly, you will learn to forgive yourself, to realize how necessary our defenses and destructive behaviours can be to our survival; until we are able to heal, at which point we no longer need them.
Who am I?
I am a Registered Psychotherapist in the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario who believes that in order to heal, one must gain insight by embarking on a journey of self-discovery, to not only discover the roots of one's 'problems', but also the many branches that have intertwined to shape one's life. Insight gives us permission to feel the way we feel, rather than how we 'should' feel, and sets the stage for real change to occur. Once we have permission, we can separate the past from the present, we can be open to new experiences, learning that we can trust ourselves, our emotions, our reactions... They are necessary for our survival if we are too afraid to listen, we are in danger of not living.
I believe that healing is a gradual process, controlled by the client, resulting in an experienced transformation witnessed by the therapist. The path is unique for each individual, and is both exciting and scary, but always traversable. My role is to support, encourage, and engage my clients in a way that may be uncertain, yet remains safe.
I have listed under my photo the areas I mostly work with as eating disorders, creativity and sexual abuse largely within an emotion focussed perspective.
I incorporate elements of Emotion-Focused Therapy, Creative Arts Therapy, Drama Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Existential Therapy, embracing projective and distancing techniques such as fiction, metaphor, myth and fairytale, in order to overcome resistance and enhance creative impulses.
I currently work with both adults and children, individually and in groups, in areas of sexual abuse, eating disorders, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, post-traumatic stress, social isolation, suicidal ideation, hyperactivity, and developmental delay. I have worked extensively with the Eating Disordered population, with inpatients and outpatients, adults and children.
I myself suffered from an eating disorder for 10 years of my life, and have undergone my own therapeutic and creative process in order to heal, and will probably continue on that journey for the rest of my life. My dream is to help my clients find nourishment in places that have probably always been there, but just needed to be uncovered. .
Please feel free to contact me to discuss your needs, although, ironically, discovering what one needs is one of the main goals of therapy! My office is centrally located off the subway at Yonge and Summerhill. Here is a map. I look forward to meeting you!
