How to be 'august' in August using 3 quotes of Caesar
How to be august in August using three quotes of Caesar are some thoughts on how to be great, magnificent (one meaning of the word august) during the new month of August which is upon us. I want to start this month off with alot more optimism than is currently circulating in the world. In fact, it was the politics of fear about August and the looming stock plunge of the wall street and the failures of the world to protect the innocent and the rampant scare tactics from all sides of the aisle that … [Read more...]

Hi there, I'm curious to know where I can go for support? I've purchased this and for whatever reason cant get it working right on Facebook. I'm hosting it from a bluehost account and apparently just dont konw how to get it into the iframe in FB. Curious to know if you have any instructions.

Just a word to the wise: I've run this through 2 different programmers with a combined 20 years experience in web design. They have both told me that the left floating menu is not compatible with the Facebook iframe.
Further the seller does not offer any support or response to repeated requests for same.
Cool, like it a lot;

Tabcorp boss David Attenborough believes punters will be buoyed by the recent change in government as they turn their attention to the spring racing carnival, but is still tipping a standard CPI-indexed lift in turnover heading into the Melbourne Cup.
Speaking on Tuesday at the launch of the company's spring racing campaign, when it will book 25 per cent of its annual turnover in just 65 days of racing, Mr Attenborough said punters had been feeling more positive recently.
"Certainly we expect things to pick up after the election now that that's over; we are certainly seeing people be a lot more positive," he said.
"We are a discretionary spend company and you would certainly expect to see that come through into the numbers."
Tabcorp is expected to provide an earnings update and first quarter trading performance next week. The spring racing carnival is a crucial earnings period for Tabcorp. Last year NSW and Victorian TAB racing turnover hit $2.1 billion for the carnival with $184 million plunged on Melbourne Cup day.
Tabcorp is expected to book 2000 transactions a second and a total of 50 million transactions on Cup day, Mr Attenborough said.
He said Tabcorp's IT infrastructure was now on "lock-down mode" as it prepared for the massive betting plunge by Australians and overseas punters.
Although still two-thirds of its wagering activity is conducted in cash transactions over the counter at neighbourhood TABs, a growing component is now online. Of the online betting activity 43 per cent is from hand-held devices such as mobile phones.
Mr Attenborough said he expected offshore online bookmakers to be as competitive as ever this year.
"They will be active in the market, they are competitive and they are professional and we trade against them and trade successfully."
Tabcorp shares ended 2¢ higher at $3.26 on Tuesday.

Price Speed Indicator: Find out inter-candle speed of price

Colored MA Uses 3 Lines to Show the Right Color Everytime
Many colored MA indicators don't work because MetaTrader doesn't always show lines correctly. For example, with a poorly made colored MA, you see longer red and shorter blue lines (or vice versa). If the bar moves up 1, the indicator doesn't show it right. You may see a 2 bar line or no color change at all.
Our colored MA uses 3 lines and combines them to avoid such problems. For a 1 bar up movement, you see a 1 bar blue line. If movement is up-down-up-down, you see blue-red-blue-red lines. Now you don't have to guess about movement.

Copy your trades to your friend's platform, or create a subscription service with your own signal. This software copies trades from one platform to another platform(s) via the Internet.

Well, we knew it all had to end sometime. The world is evolving, and one of these days everything will come to a conclusion as we know it.
I'm talking, of course, about the Mayan prophecy that the world will end on Dec. 21, 2012, or 12-21-12.
Of course, none of the Mayans who made that prediction about 1200 years ago or so are still around to see if it comes true. Their world ended long ago.
Just when you think you're going to have a nice, positive, post-election column, something happens to gum up the works.
I guess I can still legitimately praise George Tomyn and Dr. Diana Greene for the school superintendent campaign they ran.
Current events
Many Americans voted for John McCain in his 2008 presidential bid. They agreed to support the winner, Barack Obama, for the good of America. After all, Obama was young, fresh, and energetic. He promised "hope and change" to America ... which he never gave us.
Sometimes the calendar can be a little bit unfair with its listing of dates, holidays and remembrances. Take this week, for instance.
Thursday was Nov. 22. Because it was the fourth Thursday in November, it was Thanksgiving Day in the United States, the earliest date it can be. It was a day for giving thanks for all that we have in this great nation, whether you agree with everything that is going on or not.
When a top political candidate comes to visit your area, it's a public relations boon, especially when someone like vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan opens his comments by saying what great Florida weather he was experiencing.
But Ryan's visit to Ocala last week has me thinking of some things, just coming up with some questions without answers. So let me present some of those to you.
Looking at Executive Orders
It is a shame that the only ads Obama can run are promoting class warfare, primarily because he can't run on his record. He wants to shift emphasis to fear of the unknown from the facts that would in themselves prevent his re- election. However there is a real danger that hardly anyone is talking about, one that could destroy individual freedom and our American way of life. It's time to talk about his executive orders.
Experience means been there; done that
An election message that's worth repeating
There are a lot of people who immediately think "no" when the prospect of a new tax appears on the ballot. They don't take the time to figure out how much, or how little, it would cost them, or how much the rejection of that tax could affect their lives.

Keith Fahey: Our league will never set you up for life, but we have to build something better
Out-dated facilities and inconsistent standards holding us back but we still produce players who go on to make the Irish team
When I agreed to come back to the League of Ireland in 2014 after five years away in England, I knew that my football life was going to be different.
I wasn't deluded. The working existence of a footballer in Ireland is a world away from what you experience at the highest level in the UK, so it would be wrong to place any stock in those comparisons. What I wanted to find out was if things had changed at home since I'd left St Pat's for Birmingham.
Back then, Pat's were spending a lot of money trying to conquer Europe. We were training full-time up in Celbridge and trying to do things like they were done in England as much as possible: you'd have food at training, a full-time kitman making sure your gear was laid out when you arrived in the morning, little things like that.
There was a spike in wages too and, as players, we were naturally happy with that because every footballer worries at some point about whether they'll be able to earn enough to look after them for the long run. It wasn't our job to question the spending.
When I landed back, the situation at Pat's had changed. It felt things had gone backwards a little bit. I didn't mind bringing my kit home after training; you can't get hung up on things like that. But it just felt like the game here hadn't really progressed at all.
I don't want to slate the league. I appreciate that clubs have a tough job making ends meet.
I went to Shamrock Rovers last season, and Pat Fenlon tried to do everything as professionally as he could within the budget. But you're still going out training in the AUL with no privacy. You'd never know who was going to be there, with all kinds of other teams coming and going.
And it did make me wonder if things are ever really going to move on from this. The wages around the league now are probably comparable to the level when I started in 2003.
Some of the facilities are the same, the dressing-rooms, the toilets, all that stuff. There is licensing, which is supposed to apply a standard, but there always seems to be exceptions to the rule.
Players are looking after themselves better, that's for sure. It's a younger league too, I'd noticed that when I came back. Some of the lads might not be as talented as players they are up against but they won't give you a second.
Still, if there's one word that's missing, it's consistency.
People will sometimes ask you how the League of Ireland rates compared to the various divisions in England - League One, League Two or whatever. But there's no point even considering that question.
In the lower leagues across the water, there is a certain standard that applies: they're all properly full-time, well-supported by the locals, generally have their own training facility, and players and supporters have an idea what to expect every week.
Over here, there's huge gaps in standards under every heading, from where clubs train, to how often they train, to the quality of their players.
Some parts of the year, there's six or seven games in 21 days, which isn't ideal for players and is even worse for supporters, who have to pick and choose games because tickets are just too expensive - there should be a €10 flat rate for all games in my opinion.
Other times, you might go without a match for a couple of weeks, and the off-season is four months long.
On the pitch, you could have two or three ex-internationals on one side and two or three lads who've just come straight out of the Leinster Senior League on the other.
The only thing that's consistent is the places where you know the away dressing-room is going to be a disgrace.
Despite that, we are still producing players who will go on to play for the international team. I think Chris Forrester will get in there, and there was a big push for Richie Towell last year too, which was a bit blown out of proportion I feel. There's players like Brandon Miele (Shamrock Rovers) and Daryl Horgan (Dundalk) who could easily go over and get that bit of luck.
The Ireland squad at the moment has a lot of lads that came through the League of Ireland route and I've been asked if, on reflection, I wish I'd stayed at home when I was a teenager instead of going across to Arsenal.
But I don't think that would have suited me. I probably needed the experience of being knocked down to toughen me up. I signed for Arsenal because I wasn't interested in anyone else - I was an Arsenal fan and just wanted to know where to sign.
But I couldn't settle; I was in and out of different digs, didn't like living in a stranger's house. It just wasn't for me.
I went to Aston Villa and things didn't work out for me either, but that was a personal thing. I don't think you can generalise and say every player should do one thing. I matured later than most. Some lads take to it like a duck to water.
I went into an Ireland dressing-room and there was Robbie Keane, Damien Duff, Richard Dunne. . . they'd been in England from the start and made unbelievable careers for themselves.
What I would say is that clubs should look at the psychological side of things more than they do, assess the different characters and their needs rather than just treating everyone the same.
Young lads will always want to go away because they will be afraid the chance will never come again.
However, I think the new U-17 national league and the plans for an U-15 version are a good thing. It's about time that the League of Ireland clubs did something in that department. Even if their players still go to England when they are 16, they'll have an affiliation with a club if they end up coming home.
I didn't really have anyone to speak to when I came back from Villa. Agents are only interested when there's something to sell, and the stats about the amount of lads that come back and never play again are frightening.
We have to try and build something better here, much as you're never going to be able to look at the League of Ireland as a job that can look after you when you have to retire.
There's no pension. There are 'professional players' but they aren't paid for 52 weeks. It's 36 or 40 or 42. There's a lot of guys making what is nearly a full-time commitment for part-time wages.
I rang some insurance companies when I came home to talk about getting cover in case I picked up a career-ending injury.
At Birmingham, I was on a policy which offered that service: there was a selection of brokers looking for the business. Here, there's nothing in place at all. If you're injured, you're injured and that's it.
So while you might be able to earn enough to keep you ticking along when you're playing here, you'd be foolish to think it could offer long-term security.
I got the opportunity to earn a good wage in England and I'm grateful for that, but retiring last year was a bigger shock to the system than I anticipated. It was great for a few weeks, a bit of time off and then all of a sudden I thought 'What am I going to do with my time?' Suddenly, there's no income. I was in denial about it for a few months.
I've gone back to college to do a personal training course and I'm enjoying it. Granted, it was tough at first. It feels like I'm starting in the real world. When you're playing, football is your life, it's your identity. You get up every day and you're a footballer and that's it.
In England, everything is done for you. There's always a man with a number who sorts it. It's easy to get caught in a bubble; you never have to think outside the box.
When I was a kid at Arsenal, we were told to go to school but we had no interest when we were playing. I remember a good friend of mine telling me just a few years ago to get another plan in place because I wouldn't be playing forever, and I brushed him off. All I could think about was football, football, football.
With the college work, I'm using my brain again and it feels good. I realise now that I should have prepared for this earlier because in Ireland, there always has to be a Plan B. No matter who you are, it can all end very quickly.
Keith Fahey spent time on the books of Arsenal, Aston Villa, St Patrick's Athletic, Drogheda United, Birmingham City and Shamrock Rovers. He was capped 16 times by Ireland under Giovanni Trapattoni. Fahey (33) retired from football last year.

Inspiration Journal ♡ Mood Boards
I currently still have a slightly excessive amount of notebooks waiting for me to use them, so I decided to turn one very small and cute notebook into a nice little place filled with some themed mood boards and inspiration collages. One of my favourite things about being online is the constant access to an incredible array of inspiring images and art pieces and photographs of things such as beautiful flowers, dogs, and old Tamagotchis, so it makes sense to make a home for all of those things offline too.
I think this will be a really useful resource for finding styles, colour palettes, aesthetics, or just drawing references and ideas. Curating some special things to look through can do a lot for your happiness and focus.
A page of cute dogs will be sure to cheer me up at any time.
These are just the initial pages, but I'm already very happy with these layouts and I feel inspired and calm. Pink sunsets and night skies and glowing lights are so nice.
I'm going to try collecting lots of cutesy stuff, fashion inspiration, scenic landscapes, nostalgic toy stuff, scientific illustrations, intimate flower arrangements, and who knows what else in here.

this is such a good idea for journals! I love it. My favourite is the pinky sunset and the dreamy night skies - such an aesthetic and they make me feel happy, sad and nostalgic all in one go.ReplyDeleteReplies
Yes! Sunsets and skies are uniquely magical, I definitely get that cocktail of lovely feelings from them.Delete

by OPOVV, ©2012
(Dec. 9, 2012) — Unsubstantiated claims are just that: statements that have no validity; do you agree? Sometimes we take events on trust: for example, two containers traveling with an impact speed of 120 mph packed with some life forms of different ages and sexes; let's call it two families traveling in cars on a two-lane highway. Each of the drivers trusts the other to stay in the designated lane just as the drivers trust the occupants not to physically interfere with the safe operation of the terrain traveler in which they're all encapsulated.
You are tasked with giving a report about money. You are a diligent investigator and you report that today's money is nothing more than a tool used to facilitate trades. For example, you give the store clerk some pieces of green paper, and she gives you a shirt. On the surface you came out way ahead, because you've got a tangible asset while the clerk holds worthless green paper. But wait! The clerk, in turn, exchanges the green paper she just received from you for a hot dog from the corner vendor. And so it goes, the pieces of green paper helping to make trades all over the globe, which reminds me of something I learned in school: economically speaking, nothing happens in this world until a trade is made.
Leave it up to our politicians to really mess up the works. When we taxpayers trade green pieces of paper to welfare recipients and get nothing in return, it is nothing less than throwing money away. When taxpayers trade hard-earned money and get nothing in return, it's called a scam, a contract with the Pentagon with no oversight, a raw deal for you and me. When we expect our politicians to treat the money they so cavalierly toss around as their own, we've over-reached the bounds of common sense and entered the world of graft, bribes, stimulus and bailouts, kickbacks to political party coffers and candidates. The money is then used to pay for a media blitz which targets the impressionable, gullible and politically naive individuals who believe that turning the other cheek is what the good Christians do and not the stupid people who think it's honorable to toss Freedom down the cesspool where they mentally dwell.
Just wait: someday I'll write how I REALLY feel, but for now all this hot air from Washington about expenditures is nothing less than a failed attempt at hiding the truth. The real truth is that we wouldn't be in this mess unless the idiots in the Executive and Legislative branches of government put us there in the first place. The problems of today are caused by the very politicians who are now serving in Congress, with very few exceptions (those who are serving their first term), except, of course, that even the Freshmen politicians will vote "The Party Line," thereby staying the course of more and more spending, more debt, more of the same, year after year.
We need someone in charge who will be in charge, and I'm not talking about some two-bit dictator with a massive ego problem. We expect results based on sound principled financial practices, not this "Let's see how much we can milk it before they get wise" ploy. So here's my suggestion: To the de facto lying bum of a president, Obama, and his stooges (the Cabinet), the Judicial and the Legislative branches: When you leave for "Holiday vacation," DON'T COME BACK. We'll take it from there. Anybody listening?
Getting back to unsubstantiated claims: Think Birth Certificate, Social Security number, and immigration status of the Long Legged Mack Daddy, as Rev. David Manning calls Obama.

He Knows from Whence He Speaks...
STRASBOURG, France — A top European Union politician on Wednesday slammed U.S. plans to spend its way out of recession as "a way to hell."
Czech Prime Minister Mirek Topolanek, whose country currently holds the EU presidency, told the European Parliament that President Barack Obama's massive stimulus package and banking bailout "will undermine the stability of the global financial market."
A day after his government collapsed because of a parliamentary vote of no-confidence, Topolanek took the EU presidency on a collision course with Washington over how to deal with the global economic recession.
Remember, this guy is Prime Minister of the Czech Republic, who pretty much had an "up close and in your face" relationship with the Soviet Union, and personally knows the dangers posed by 'government gone wild.'
The United States plans to spend heavily to try and lift its economy out of recession with a $787 billion economic stimulus plan of tax rebates, health and welfare benefits, as well as extra energy and infrastructure spending.
To encourage banks to lend again, the government will also pump $1 trillion into the financial system by buying up treasury bonds and mortgage securities in an effort to clear some of the "toxic assets" — devalued and untradeable assets — from banks' balance sheets.
Topolanek bluntly said that "the United States did not take the right path.".

Tennessee fired men's tennis coach Sam Winterbotham, according to a release from the school on Thursday.
Winterbotham coached the Vols for 11 seasons. The Vols reached the NCAA tournament in each of his first nine seasons, and finished as national runner-up and SEC regular season and tournament champions in 2010.
Tennessee did not reach the postseason in 2016 or 2017 and had a combined SEC record of 3-21 in Winterbotham's final two seasons.
"Associate AD/tennis administrator Dara Worrell and I met with Sam this afternoon, and we came to the conclusion that it was best for him to step away from the program at this time," Vols AD John Currie said in the press release. "I want to thank Sam for his 11 years of service to the University of Tennessee, which were highlighted by three SEC titles and an appearance in the NCAA team final."
Chris Woodruff will serve as the interim head coach while Currie and a four-person committee conduct a national search for a new head coach.
Winterbotham coached the SEC Player of the Year in 2010, 2011 and 2013 and the NCAA Doubles Champions in 2014. He will receive a buyout of $181,873 in monthly payments until his contract expires on June 30, 2018, unless he accepts another job before then.

dense network of groups, communities, networks, and ties that stand between the individual and the modern state. This modern definition of civil society has become a familiar component of the main strands of contemporary liberal and democratic theorizing. In addition to its descriptive properties, the terminology of civil society carries a litany of ethical and political aspirations and implications. For some of its advocates, the achievement of an independent civil society is a necessary precondition for a healthy democracy, and its relative absence or decline is often cited as both a cause and an effect of various contemporary sociopolitical maladies. The meaning and implications of the concept of civil society have been widely debated. As an analytical framework for interpreting the social world, the idea that civil society should be understood as, by definition, separated from and opposed to the operations of the state and official public institutions has various disadvantages,...READ MORE

Reviews for Hotel ZaZa Dallas
It has been a few weeks since we stayed at Zaza and we are still talking about it. When we arrived we felt like VIP's. They upgraded our rooms, poured us a glass of wine, shuttled us to a restaurant and everyone was happy and eager to assist us. We used their shuttle service many times. Our rooms were very well appointed and comfy. Walking from the lobby to the restaurant takes awhile as all the art and visual interest pieces are delightful! A truly great experience!

I've now hosted 3 events at Dragonfly in Hotel ZaZa. It's people like Louis Kerans and his staff that make me keep coming back. The last event was my engagement. Needless to say I wanted it to make sure my fiancé had the perfect day. Planning such an event was extremely stressful. I scheduled bottle service for me, my fiancé, and nearly 20 of our closest friends. Mr. Kerans and Dragonfly went above and beyond to make sure everyone had a good time. I highly recommend Dragonfly for all your events.

We love this unique hotel! It's tucked into Uptown Dallas but close to Downtown. Their shuttle service to nearby restaurants was sooo nice. We loved having coffee right out in the hallway in the morning and breakfast was amazing. The staff at the front desk were very friendly. The room was beautiful! Oh...we signed up for a VIP member and got champagne and strawberries at turn down, super fun surprise to come back to at night. Highly recommend staying here for a couples getaway! I want to try the spa next time!

We were traveling through Dallas on a road trip from San Antonio to Nashville and decided to stay at the ZaZa. I always check on Tablet to see what unique boutique hotels are in a city and that's how we found ZaZa. This place is also dog friendly as we had my miniature poodle mix with us on the adventure. We couldn't have been happier with our experience. We were surprise upgraded to a room with a balcony and a view of the pool/patio area. We immediately ordered a bottle of wine through room service so we could enjoy the view. The restaurant patio was a nice spot for some pre dinner apps. Later that night we curled up in the cozy robes and passed out. Would definitely return next time we're in Dallas.

Great hotel and rooms that were more spacious enough for our group. Its in a great location for some dining locally and with walking distance to almost all. Meeting room set up is great, user friendly, and the staff was very attentive to our needs. Dragonfly is one of the better hotel restaurants and bars I have been in. Food is great and priced really well with a waitstaff that knows their food very well. Bar staff and teams were awesome. Walked our group through all the wines by the glass and some of there personal favorites. Rooms are big and super comfortable with modern amenities that really help place be welcoming. This is a place to impress and has a very comfortable feel to it. Will book more meetings here when I can.

How Rape Became a Crime against Humanity
The Foca rape case was the first time that individuals were convicted for rape as a crime against humanity. The Foca case came out of the war in the Balkans and represented a huge step forward in defining the field of international humanitarian law.

Rape May Be an Act of Genocide in International Law
Rape May Be a Crime against Humanity in International Law
When does rape change from sexual assault carried out by one individual against another to become a crime against humanity?
In terms of international law, it began in 1945 and was solidified in February 2001 with the verdict of the Foca Rape Case.
Foca Rape Case
The Foca Rape Case was prosecuted by the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia (the ICTY) in an effort to bring to justice those responsible for crimes against humanity in the war in Bosnia. Up until this time, no one had ever been convicted of rape as a crime against humanity.
Even though a number of specific acts were defined as "crimes against humanity" in the Charter of the International Military Tribunal for the Nuremberg Trials (1945), rape was not specifically mentioned as one of these actions. "Crimes against humanity" was defined in the Charter in the following way:
" 6(c) Crimes against Humanity: namely, murder, extermination, enslavement, deportation, and other inhumane acts committed against any civilian population, before or during the war, or persecutions on political, racial or religious grounds in execution of or in connection with any crime within the jurisdiction of the Tribunal, whether or not in violation of the domestic law of the country where perpetrated."
The omission of rape as part of the definition of crimes against humanity became blatant in the war in Bosnia in the 1990s.
Rape as a Tool of Terror
The atrocities carried out in the Balkan war made it clear that rape could be used as a tool of terror in a campaign of "ethnic cleansing." The Serbs sought to carve out a new Republic of Srpska from Bosnia and Herzegovina in the former Yugoslavia (see Figure 1). The goal was to have this new republic "cleansed" of non-Serbian groups. Much of populace of this area of Bosnia and Herzegovina were Muslim.
One way to get rid of the Muslim population was, of course, to kill people. And this certainly occurred. However, another means of eradicating a particular group from an area was simply to make them leave and never want to come back. For this, terror was needed, and rape became an important tool for terror. In fact, the accounts of rape that traveled from one village to another could be enough to drive people out of an area. Explaining her reason for fleeing the area, one Bosnian woman put it, "Down the road, forty women were raped."
A woman did not need to be raped herself in order for the terror of rape to be effective.
Crime against Humanity
The Serbian commander, Dragoljub Kunarac was arrested in 1999 by the ICTY and taken to the Hague along with two other soldiers to be tried for crimes against humanity.
The legal question was whether the acts of these soldiers were crimes against humanity or simply individual acts of depravity. In order to prove that the soldiers' acts were crimes against humanity, the prosecution in the Foca rape case argued three things:
The prosecution brought witnesses (whose identities were often concealed for protection) who described grisly ordeals of gang rapes, sexual enslavement and the existence of rape houses or rape camps.
The defense, on the other hand, argued that since the accused had not killed the women they had sex with, the acts should not be taken as a serious crime. Going further, a witness to the trial reported that the defense attorney provoked an audible gasp from the gallery when he concluded that, "The rape itself is not an act that inflicts severe bodily pain." So, he argued, the victims were not exposed to any severe physical or psychological suffering.
Chain of Command
It was also important to implicate the military chain of command in the rapes.
Unlike other instances of genocidal actions and campaigns, the prosecutors of the Foca rape case realized that there was no way for them to trace the responsibility all the way up the chain of command. Dragoljub Kuranac was only a low level commander and the two other soldiers indicted in the case were subcommanders. Nevertheless, it was important to be able to demonstrate that culpability for rape involved the chain of command since this would support rape as part of an "aggressive war."
The defense argued that Kunarac should not be held responsible for the actions of his men since the soldiers committed rape when they were off duty. So, they argued, Kuranac was not actually in charge.
The prosecution in the Foca case presented evidence and made arguments in cross examination that Kuranac had known about (as well as participated in) acts of rape and sexual enslavement. He had done nothing to stop the actions. Additionally, they argued that whether or not the soldiers were officially on duty made no difference since Kuranac's authority was recognized by the soldiers even when they were off duty.
Verdict and Significance
The ICTY handed down its verdict in February 2001. The court ruled that the acts of rape were recognized as crimes against humanity because:
So, even though the wording of the Statue of Rome had included rape in its definition of crimes against humanity, the Foca rape case made that language a reality.
Following the Foca case, one commenter noted that, "Now we say rape is a crime, a crime against humanity, or a war crime or a constituent part of genocide."

This week I helped chaperone my daughter's field trip to Aspen Mountain for some snowshoeing in the backcountry. It was so much fun! The weather was glorious–we had some low-hanging, wispy clouds in the morning, but the sky cleared to a beautiful robin's-egg blue by lunchtime. It had snowed the night before, so the ground cover was all sparkly. And the kids and grownups were all happy to be playing hooky from school and work all day!
That's not to say the kids didn't learn. Knowledgeable staffers from the Aspen Center for Environmental Studies talked to the 7- and 8-year-olds about animal tracks and their winter habitats. A representative from the mountain's ski patrol discussed skiing and avalanche safety. We all watched as a trained rescue dog sniffed out four kids hiding in snow caves in a giant snow pile. I was impressed!
Visitors to the Aspen area can go snowshoeing on the same off-piste trails we did through ACES' Naturalist Snowshoe Tours. Two-hour tours take place daily through April 11 at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. Cost is $52 for adults, $41 for youth and seniors, $31 for children ages 7 to 12. The fee includes a gondola ride to the top of the mountain, snowshoe rental, snack and warm drink, and a knowledgeable guide. Learn about wildlife in winter, tracking, mountain ecology, history of Aspen, avalanches and winter habitats on this leisurely paced excursion over gentle terrain.
On the tour, if you're blessed with the same weather we were, you'll enjoy pretty scenes like these:

text: Anyone who likes gaming should check out the Beta version of Hella Umbrella. It's pretty short being a beta and all and the developer clearly has some work to do but I think it's different than any game currently on the market plus it's pretty fun. Additionally it has nice graphics and sound. I don't know how to post QR codes so if someone can do that or else just search it in the market. I'm glad to see a lot of polished games finally starting to make their way to the market!

FACEBOOK is pushing ahead with its top-secret project to build a smartphone, according to The New York Times - and it is recruiting experts who worked on Apple's iPhone and iPad to help in its quest.
The plan is driven by founder Mark Zuckerberg's insistence that the social networking giant does not get left behind in the lucrative and growing area of mobile development.
Facebook's recent launch as a public company has made the need for new sources of revenue even starker.
"Mark is worried that if he doesn't create a mobile phone in the near future that Facebook will simply become an app on other mobile platforms," a Facebook employee told the New York Times.
A former Apple iPhone engineer said Zuckerberg peppered him with intricate questions about smartphone workings at a meeting.
Last year AllThingsD reported that Facebook had tapped Taiwanese cell phone maker HTC to build a smartphone that has the social network integrated at the core of its being. The device would be called "Buffy" and run on a modified version of Google's Android.
An earlier bid to build a smartphone failed when Facebook bosses decided the challenges were too big, TechCrunch reported in 2010.
The Times' report on Facebook's latest moves comes less than a week after Google announced that it had completed its $12.5 billion acquisition of smartphone maker Motorola Mobility Holdings.
Facebook did not deny or confirm it is exploring the creation of a smartphone, referring the Times - which speculated that Zuckerberg's company could also buy an existing smartphone maker, such as struggling BlackBerry manufacturer Research in Motion - to a statement it gave to AllThingsD last November.
"Our mobile strategy is simple," the statement said.
"We think every mobile device is better if it is deeply social. We're working across the entire mobile industry - with operators, hardware manufacturers, OS providers and application developers - to bring powerful social experiences to more people around the world.

Why do men cheat? Divorce rates are skyrocketing and a fair percentage of marriages end in divorce, many as a result of cheating.
Often, couples are in seemingly happy relationships and to cheat would ultimately put all they have at risk.
Despite the risk and possibility of divorce, men do still cheat.
Cheating leaves a trail of heartbreak, confusion and bewilderment.
Is There A Certain Type Of Man Who Cheats?
Generally speaking, men who cheat..
- have low self esteem
- may show a lack of trust in others
- are often unsure about what they want in life
- feel dissatisfied,
and eventually feel the desire to look elsewhere.
This makes them feel better even when life is pretty darn good at home.
Can Knowing Why Men Cheat Help To Stop It In The First Place?
Well, if you are serious about this, there are signs when a relationship is not going well. What can you do to avoid a broken heart?
Look for some of the signs below and act on it before there is a real problem.
Unhappiness And Disappointment
Some men may feel life is passing them by. The marriage may not have lived up to expectations although nothing may be drastically wrong.
The dream job may now be humdrum and going nowhere. He sees nothing ahead but years and years of the same.
This is a pretty normal scenario for most couples. The day to day demands of daily life can get in the way of communication. Add to that family, relatives, buying a home and it all starts to build up.
Enter, midlife crisis although that term seems somewhat outdated now and a crisis can strike at any age.
Rather than tackling the issues that really matter he seeks solace elsewhere. He expects that no one will find out. Of course when he is invariably found out, then there is heartbreak for everyone.
It's a common enough scenario and it is easy to slip into a pattern of non communication.
At some point you suspect that he is cheating.
Why Do Men Cheat? Because They Can
For some men, it is because they have got away with it and they will do it again and even more so if mates have done the same thing.
However, even though they think they have got away with it and strictly speaking they have, there is underlying damage done to the relationship. He is now trying to maintain a facade of everything being normal.
This will chip away at a marriage and eventually cause a rift which will deepen.
Women often talk about 'the hunch' they have that things are not right so if this is the case for you, do something about it.
It is amazing how often those hunches have some substance.
Confrontation isn't easy but you owe it to yourself to be treated with respect.
Being cheated on is not being treated with respect.
Ask him the hard question and be prepared for his answer. What if he lies? Well, he will now know that you have suspicions.
Take it as it comes and confront him again if necessary. That hunch is a good barometer.
By the way, this does not include psycho chick who is suspicious about everything little thing.
I am talking about the pit of the stomach hunches and those sudden moments when alarm bells go off and you realize all is not as it should be.
It Just Happened
A man is going to feel flattered if someone starts flirting with him, complimenting him and otherwise showering him with attention.
For some men, note I do same some and not all, this allure will be hard to resist and it may end up as a fling (one night stand) or blossom into an affair.
This is a classic case of 'it just happened'. The office Christmas party where colleagues have one or two too many drinks and one thing leads to another and another and another. Men don't tend to see this as a problem as they have no emotional investment in the encounter. Women don't feel like that and they do feel betrayed.
It is difficult to counter this type of behavior. Your partner needs to know what the consequences are if this should become a reality.
It just happened, is not an excuse.
Divorce Is Expensive
A carefully built portfolio of assets can be ruined by an expensive divorce, gobbled up in fees, child support and supporting two households instead of one.
The thought of separating the assets, dealing with child custody and all that that entails is going to be a huge blow financially.
By cheating, he doesn't have to give up all that he has worked for. Kind of like the having the cake and eating it scenario.

Testing The Waters
This applies to the man who isn't sure if he want to separate from his partner or file for divorce so he hedges his bets by having an affair.
He hopes that this will make the way clearer for him to make a decision, however when emotions are involved it is not quite that simple.
If your relationship has got to this stage, you need to have the talk, the do we stay or do we go talk.
An Eye For An Eye
In the heat of the moment the rejected partner wants to see the cheating partner hurt however this is clearly not a good idea.
When the motive is an eye for an eye, no one will come out of it well.
Ego – Is A Dirty Word
Male ego and the thrill of the chase can be an aphrodisiac for some men and they revel in being in control. You know the type I mean.
These men can be serial offenders and believe that they can control the situation so are not too concerned about cheating.
Counselor M. Gary Neuman surveyed 200 husbands including those who had cheated to find out the reasons why men cheat. Interestingly 48% of men rated emotional dissatisfaction as the primary reason they cheated.
So cheating isn't always just about sex. Men have emotional needs too but they often aren't as good at letting their other half know what they are feeling.
Creating an environment where both parties feel valued and appreciated in a relationship is a positive way to build a strong relationship.
This is a science based test and it focuses on compatibility.
It is a very easy test to take however from the detail in the test you can be sure that the matches will be worth your time.
You can use a username of your choice rather than entering your own name, if you prefer.
This site has Free and Paid options.
You can also do the test a little at a time. Just save your work and come back to it later.

Comments and Strings
Comments can be added to an .adm file by preceding the comment text with a semicolon (;). Comments can be placed above the [strings] section at the end of any valid line in the body of the .adm file.
You can add string variables to an .adm file by preceding the text with two exclamation points (!!). Doing so allows you to define long strings once and use them in multiple locations in the .adm file, which in turn fosters easier localization of the .adm file.
Each of the strings is explicitly defined in the [strings] section of the .adm file. The strings must be enclosed in quotation marks. Variable names and hard-coded strings may optionally be enclosed in quotation marks. However, names and strings with blank spaces must be enclosed in quotation marks.

Unanswered: calculation: do ALL fields in a record contain variables
Hi everyone,
I'm sorry if someone has already answered this question, I tried searching through the forum but was unable to find an answer. I've included the backstory below this question in case it helps.
My question is this...I need to create a calculation/function that returns "true" if all the fields in a specific record contain values, and false if ANY of the fields in that record are empty. I know that I can do this by creating a calculation that uses If(IsEmpty(field 1) or IsEmpty(field 2) or etc.) but then I'll need to enter the variable names for hundreds of variables into the calculation. Is there any elegant way to create a calculation that looks something like this:
If (all of the fields in RECORD1 contain valid variables) return "true" otherwise return "false"

By valid, do you mean that the fields have something in them verses they are empty? Remember that invalid fields can be things like an invalid date or something that does not pass the validation requirement for a field. It appears you are only looking for empty fields.
If you want, you can use the FieldNames function to set a variable that has a list of all the fields in your table and, with that array, then have a loop that goes through and tests each field for whether it is empty or not. That is what I would do.

What do you mean by 'best perl software'? The Perl interpreter/compiler?
If you're on unix, get the sources at CPAN and compile your Perl.
If you're on Mac, get MacPerl.
If you're on win32, get activestate or SiePerl.
What ever you get, it's Perl, which is always the best.
You ask for the best perl editor.
I'd say the best perl editor for you is the one, you know best.
If you like IDEs, get one, there are several out there.
If you want a plain editor, any text editor will do.

Hey man, thanks for replying back. I use either notepad or wordpad for as a perl editor. I got the perl from Activestate which is excellent suitable for Win9x and WinNT/2000/XP.

Turners Auctions has lifted its full year profits by 22%, but says the car business remains challenging.
The company made $3.7 million in 2011. Revenue rose 7% to $75 million.
Chief executive Graham Roberts says revenues have grown in the auction business. But the car business continues to be challenging, with the overall used car market declining 1% last year.
Its fleet division performed well, as it focussed on buying vehicles domestically to compensate for the decline in imports from Japan.
Turners Auctions will pay a full year dividend of 17 cents per share.
Shares in Turners Auctions were unchanged at $1.48 on Friday.

The reclusive genius, who has been stalked by a killer for decades, was seeking a new star to play the tragic heroine in his latest work, an adaptation of Shakespeare's Othello. Jason tries to persuade Daisy to return Broadway with him but she has made a promise to another man that she couldn't break. The closer he gets to her the closer danger comes.

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2017
Origins Available: English, German
Anglo-Saxon culture. Their name comes from having lived at or near a local stream or a spring. Bourn is a small village and civil parish in South Cambridgeshire. The population of the parish was 1,764 people at the time of the 2001 census. Bourn Castle was located there and originally consisted of wooden buildings on an earthwork enclosure which was erected during the reign of William the Conqueror. This was burnt down during the reign of Henry III. In the early 16th century Bourn Hall was built on part of the site.
Borne Early Origins
Lincolnshire at Bourne, a market town and civil parish in the South Kesteven district which dates back to the Domesday Book where it was listed as Brune. The place name was derived from the Old English word burna or perhaps the Old Scandinavian word brunnr. The aforementioned Bourn in South Cambridgeshire also dates back to the Domesday Book where it was listed at that time as Brune. It has a similar origin. [1]CITATION[CLOSE]
Mills, A.D., Dictionary of English Place-Names. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1991. Print. (ISBN 0-19-869156-4) Bourne Abbey is in Bourne, Lincolnshire dates back to before Domesday Book in 1086. At that time, it was listed as "half a church" and had a priest. In other words, it was a small church but standards of those days. Bourne Abbey and the surrounding area was held by Ogier the Breton and was a major fishery holding at the time 2,500 eels. [2]CITATION[CLOSE]

The Great Migration
The Great Migration
To escape the unstable social climate in England of this time, many families boarded ships for the New World with the hope of finding land, opportunity, and greater religious and political freedom. Although the voyages were expensive, crowded, and difficult, those families that arrived often found greater opportunities and freedoms than they could have experienced at home. Many of those families went on to make significant contributions to the rapidly developing colonies in which they settled. Early North American records indicate many people bearing the name Borne were among those contributors:
Borne Settlers in United States in the 17th Century
Borne Settlers in United States in the 18th Century
Borne Settlers in United States in the 19th Century
The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto.
Motto: Haec omnia transeunt
Motto Translation: All these things pass away.

Rebecca Hilsenrath, Chief Executive of the Equality and Human Rights Commission, has written to the Home Secretary about the concerns over Brook House Immigration Removal Centre raised by a recent BBC Panorama programme.
A Scottish MSP has written to the UK Home Secretary demanding the end of a campaign to intimidate asylum seekers with inflammatory posters.
Scaremongering about immigration and human rights is popular among UK politicians. So it was not surprising when Home Secretary Theresa May tried to exploit fears and prejudices on these topics at the annual conference of the Conservative Party (the dominant partner in the ruling coalition). But her speech did not go quite as planned.
British Home Secretary Jacqui Smith yesterday outlined government plans to target websites promoting extremism, as part of efforts to stop "vulnerable people" being "groomed for violent extremism" by radical Jihadist groups.

My husband and I chose Kings Courtyard Inn on the fly from this website. When we arrived, we were pleasantly surprised at its central location (right on King Street with all the shopping). Our room was cozy with a king bed and decent sized bathroom. I was most impressed by the FREE continental breakfast that was delivered to our room. Of course you can order off the breakfast menu, but the free items we ate (especially the home-made pastries) were delicious! We will stay there again!

The Kings Courtyard Inn staff went out of their way to make our stay more enjoyable. There was a lot of morning noise (due to construction) outside the room my husband and I were initially staying in, and I reported this to the staff. I was given the option to move into a suite at no additional charge and spent the remainder of the trip in a really fabulous room. The location on King Street is perfect, and the value is exceptional. The breakfast is quite nice, and you have the option of having your breakfast tray delivered to your room. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend the Kings Courtyard Inn!

I haven't had the motivation to write lately; perhaps it's the laziness that summer induces. But I have to give a shout out to a very unique and creative dinner I attended last week at Powell Gardens.
Fittingly, Chef Craig Howard of Howard's Organic Fare and Vegetable Patch was the guest chef, and he cooked a meal using produce and vegetables from the Powell Gardens Harvest Garden. We were lucky that it coincided with one of those beautiful spring-like evenings that we've been experiencing this summer. The long table is under cover though, so even on a hot evening you would at least be in the shade.
Our multi-course dinner started with Baked Risotto with cherry tomatoes and zucchini noodles. A seemingly heavy way to start, but it was delightful.
Next up was Beet Tartare, with cucumber, mizuna and egg. It was a riff on beef tartare, but that's where the resemblance ended. I loved it with the bite that the mizuna gives off.
The bruschetta was my favorite dish of the evening. Using a multi-grain bread as the base, Chef Craig made fresh cream cheese, which he topped with blackberries and argula. The contrast of flavors was stunning.
The Tomato Bun was a play on the Momofuku pork bun. Here, a thick slice of tomato was laid inside of a soft bun and topped with ratatouille and crispy kale.
The Potato and Bean salad featured red Yukon slices and three varieties of beans, with pickled fennel and spinach pesto. Lovely.
Chef Craig didn't let up once he was in the homestretch–he made an ice cream sandwich with homemade mozzarella ice cream sandwiched between two chewy basil cookies (think chocolate chip cookie with basil pieces instead of chocolate chips). Tomato jam and a balsamic caramel dotted the plate for dipping and final decadence. A home-run.
Not your typical Sunday night supper.
Wines were presented family style; three whites to sample and pour at will. A sparkling rose was offered with dessert.
I went to a barn dinner last year, too, at which Patrick Ryan of Port Fonda cooked, and that was also a treat. Similar in concept but much less expensive than the dinners at Green Dirt Farm, there are only 2 or 3 of these chef dinners per season, and they always sell out. It would be smart to get on their email list so you are in the know and can sign up next year as soon as the lineup is announced. They are quickly becoming a summer highlight in my calendar.

Wrecking ball pending, Anoka facility looks to help homeless veterans
A facility for the mentally ill, forgotten by time, could have new purpose -- to give homeless veterans a place to live.
A nonprofit called Common Bond recently pitched to the Anoka City Council that the three old buildings sitting vacant on 4th Avenue along the Rum River, which could soon face a wrecking ball, should instead be a place for shelter for American heroes with nowhere else to go.
Laurel Miller, director of the Stepping Stone Shelter in Anoka, always wondered why the beautiful brick cottages remained so empty for so long. She envisions they could become just as beautiful on the inside and converted into affordable, long-term housing.

"Early to bed; early to rise" looks perfect in an unrealistic children story book. In reality, the probability of following the quote is (nearly) zero.
Alarm clocks are not exactly a man's best friend but they are good advisers; trying to instill the importance of time. Even then leaving warm bed in morning is hard and may lead you taking out your temper on alarm clocks.
You may have invented different ways to keep the alarm clock to wake you up on time. Like placing clock inside a glass to sound alarm louder, keeping alarm clock out of your reach or setting alarms for 30 minutes with 5 minutes interval.
But what if you wake up to a freshly brewed coffee right at your bed-side table? That's exactly the idea behind Barisieur – a hybrid between an alarm clock and a coffee maker. The initiative was taken by a London based industrial designer Josh Renouf. This gadget has an average digital clock at the base and a mini coffee maker on top of it. It looks like a mini version of a geek's chemistry set.
The top of the Barisieur has three circular compartments; one has a glass beaker, the other has a coffee mug and third one is for placing a small glass bottle filled with milk. A funnel is hosted on top of the mug and connected to the glass beaker through a glass tube.
The glass beaker has stainless steel balls which produce sound (as they move) and heat (through induction) to brew fresh hot coffee and wake you up.
The front face of the clock has a digital clock, knobs for setting temperature for the mini refrigerator and a small drawer for sugar & coffee. The refrigerator keeps the milk cool overnight.
Renouf is now developing a commercially viable alarm clock. The estimated retail price for the clock is $250 – $450. If you want to wake to a soft metal clicking sound along with coffee aroma, then price really won't matter. Share your comments in the section below.
