Stubborn Spot of Gravy, an Austin & Ally fiction
Disclaimer: I do not own Austin & Ally. Reviews and requests are always welcome. Special thanks to my first Auslly requester ConverseinDecember, who requested "Ally suffers from writer's block and have Austin try to find her inspiration." Hope you like it.
When Mr. and Mrs. Moon come into the Sonic Boom Tuesday afternoon to say goodbye to their son, Ally is a bit confused.
"There's a frozen turkey dinner in the freezer sweetie. Just follow the instructions on the box." His mother kisses his cheek.
"We should be back by Friday afternoon," his father adds. "We'll call you when we're on the way home."
They finish their goodbyes. Then their gone, and Austin is wiping the lipstick residue off his cheek. Ally closes her book.
"Where are your parents going?" she asks.
He sits on the edge of the counter. "Some networking thing. And then they're going to Thanksgiving at my aunt's house."
He stretches his legs out, almost kicking her as she rounds the counter.
"So you're going to be home alone for Thanksgiving?" Her voice is full of shock.
He shrugs. "Well, I was going to stay with Dez. But he's going to be out of town, so yeah. I guess."
Mr. Dawson walks into the store, and Ally rushes over to him. Austin watches her, and they move behind some customers to get more privacy.
"Dad, can Austin join us for Thanksgiving? His parents are gone, and he's going to be home all alone." She pokes her head around the customers. Austin turns his head, pretending he hasn't been watching her. Okay, so it was only her boots that he could see, but he was watching her.
Her father scratches his head. "I don't know Ally. It was just going to be the two of us, so I didn't buy a turkey."
Her shoulders sag. Still, she will not be deterred.
"We could get a small one. I'm sure there has to be at least one turkey left in Miami. Please dad? I'll take care of everything," she pleads with him.
The crowd clears. Glancing over, he sees Austin, who is again looking over at them. Austin gives a little wave, knowing this time he's been caught. Mr. Dawson waves back.
"Alright." He sighs. Ally beams.
"Thank you."
She's gone before he can even say she's welcome.

Dez leaves school early Wednesday. So when it's time for lunch, and Trish is still in line he doesn't sit on his side of the lunch table. Rather, he sidles right up to her side, taking what is supposed to be Trish's seat. She'd argue, but her mouth is full of peanut butter.
Trish approaches the table. She blinks twice at the change in seating arrangement. She shakes her head.
"Austin, that's my seat." She sets her tray on the table.
Ally swallows her sandwich (peanut butter, grape jelly, cut diagonal with crusts removed) and wipes her mouth. She looks at him for an explanation.
He peels the wrapper off his straw. "Just trying something different today. Y'know, with Dez being gone."
Trish sits across from him. She can tell that it's not the only reason he's over there. Lately he's been closer to her. And she's caught him staring at Ally on more than one occasion.
"That explains why it's so quiet," she says like she doesn't already know. She smiles to herself.
Ally digs around in her lunch sack. "Drat. I forgot to bring a fork. Be right back."
When she's gone, Trish pushes her burger aside and leans forward.
"So, when are you going to tell Ally?"
"Tell Ally what?" he asks, positioning the straw over the hole.
"That you love her, duh."
He nearly punctures his juice box.
(the page breaks here)
He's still thinking about it later that afternoon when he's at Sonic Boom. He's telling Ally a story, one that makes her laugh to the point where her cheeks turn pink, and his phone rings. He's too distracted by her that he doesn't notice until she brings it up.
"Are you going to answer that?" She wipes a tear from her eye.
He pulls it from his pocket. The caller id reads his mom's number, and he picks it up as it's about to go to voicemail.
"Austin, we're coming home early. Your aunt got the flu," his mother tells him.
"When are you going to be back?" He frowns. He was looking forward to Thanksgiving with Ally. What better way to spend the holiday than with the person he was most thankful for?
He hears conversation on the other end of the line, most likely her talking to his dad. "We're going to staying the night since we already paid for the hotel, but we should be getting back sometime tomorrow afternoon."
Ally's dinner was scheduled for four o'clock. He could still go. But then they'd come home to any empty house, and Thanksgiving was about being with your family.
"Are we going to do anything for dinner?" There was the possibility that they could go out. There was no way they'd trust him in the kitchen, making a complete turkey dinner.
Not unless they wanted lumpy mashed potatoes.
"Sorry honey. It's too late to make reservations, and by the time we get home I'll be too tired to cook," his mother replies.
He scuffs his shoe against the floor. "It's cool. We can just make that frozen turkey dinner you left me."
Ally taps him on the shoulder. He turns around to see her hand stuck out. He doesn't understand, so she points to the phone.
"I think Ally wants to talk to you," he says, passing the phone to her.
"Mrs. Moon? We're going to have more than enough food if you and Mr. Moon would like to join us for dinner." Austin pushes his head against hers to here the other half of the conversation.
He thinks back to the night of Ally's fundraiser. Trish had told his parents that Mr. Dawson didn't really like them. And while they haven't broken into a fight, they aren't quite as friendly as they used to be. He crosses his fingers.
"We'd hate to put you out," his mother says.
Austin grabs the phone back from her. He's so quick he doesn't register the spark of his hand sliding over hers.
"Ally wouldn't have offered if it would have been a problem." He knows that this probably isn't a hundred percent true. She always puts others first. "I was already going."
He hears a car horn in the background. "Alright. What time?"
"Four." He hears the car horn again, and realizes it's his mother's. She's always been an impatient driver.
"It won't leave much time. We'll have to meet you there. Now I got to go. Mwah." She disconnects.
"We're going to need more potatoes," Ally notes.
He bets hers wont have lumps.
(the page breaks here)
He's in the kitchen helping Ally. She's given him a potato masher, and it's his job to mash the potatoes. Of course.
She's tossing the salad. The doorbell rings, and it startles her. A piece of lettuce goes flying into his pot.
She plucks it out. She inspects his not-so-handy work while she's at it. Throwing the dirtied leaf in the garbage she tells him, "Your potatoes have lumps."
"At least I don't have a tomato in my hair." He wipes his hands on a towel. Carefully he tries to remove the tomato. She's not wearing an apron, and it'd be a shame to get tomato juice on her shirt.
She looks way too cute in that shirt to ruin it.
Then again, she looks cute in everything she wears.
And cooking naked is not an option.
At least, not a viable one.
Mr. Dawson brings his parents into the kitchen. He tosses the tomato in the garbage.
"Everything smells delicious Ally," Mrs. Moon compliments.
"I couldn't have done it without Austin's help." She gives the salad a final toss.
Mr. Moon peers down into the pot, as if to see if she is lying. "Now son, you actually have to mash the potatoes."
(the page breaks here)
The table seats six. The adults are already seated, Moons on one side, and Mr. Dawson on the other. Ally takes a seat next to her father.
Austin takes an extra minute to wash his hands, and when he comes out, he's faced with the decision. Sit between his parents, or sit next to Ally.
He really wants to sit next to Ally.
But it's pretty obvious that they've saved him the seat.
He sits down next to his mother.
The first few minutes are awkward. The friendly conversation seems too forced. He looks up from his peas. He can see Ally, right over the basket of rolls. He can tell by the look on her face that she agrees with him.
"Can somebody pass the salt?" he asks. It's between the two fathers, and they both grab for it.
"No worries Lester, I've got it." His dad tugs the shaker from his hand. A few grains fly out.
Austin takes it. "Thanks dad. And Mr. Dawson."
They both respond at the same time. Their eyes narrow at each other.
He was so going to kill Trish.
(the page breaks here)
Austin and Ally offer to do the dishes. Or rather, Ally offers to let the adults rest while the kids take care of things. And Austin, wanting the alone time with Ally doesn't argue.
Their parents are talking in the living room. Things don't seem as tense since the salt incident. He scrubs at a stubborn spot in the gravy dish.
"Somebody should tell our parents that Trish lied about them hating each other." Her hand covers his and she presses down. Together they scrub, trying to get the spot out.
"It'd be for the best," she agrees.
As they sip at their tea, the parents watch their kids. Mrs. Moon presses her tea bag against the side of the cup with her spoon.
"They are so cute together," she notes, taking a sip. "And I happen to know Austin has a little crush on Ally."
Her husband coughs. "He told you? I thought that was supposed to be a secret."
"It's not a secret. Anybody with two eyes can see he cares about her." She nods in their direction.
"And I think my Ally likes him too." Mr. Dawson turns to see them cheering over the finally defeated stain. She's dancing around, and he's laughing right along, copying her odd moves.
Mrs. Moon nods.
They watch the kids interact. It's so innocent, so sweet that they know they're not parting any time soon. So they might as well get used to each other.
"Lester, what are your dinner plans for next weekend?" she asks, setting her cup down on the coffee table.
"I don't have any. Why?"
"We'd like to repay the favor. Besides," she says, looking right at the kids, "I think we have a lot to talk about."
He marks the date on his calendar.
(the page breaks here)
Saturday morning Ally's brain is absolutely fried. She's gone from cooking Thanksgiving dinner to Black Friday at Sonic Boom to writing that research paper her teacher decided to assign over break. And now that she has a free moment to think, she really doesn't want to.
Except Austin is supposed to be performing for the opening of Santa's workshop next week, and she needs to write a new song. A Christmas song.
He comes into the store a few hours later.
"Hey Ally," he drones. He's been assigned the same paper as her. He's not as tired though. He didn't have to wake up at three in the morning to open the store yesterday, only to go to bed late after spending the night working on her paper. The paper she spent four hours perfecting, when she knows he only spent half as much time on it.
Was that extra two hours worth it? For one misplaced semi-colon and a dangling modifier?
Yes. Yes it was.
"Hey Austin. I'm just working on your lyrics." She sets down her pencil.
He picks up the paper from beneath her elbows. "It's blank."
"I know." She takes it back from him. "I have no idea what to write."
Shock crosses his face. Ally always has something for him. He hums the melody, the one that they'd come up with when washing the dishes.
He gets an idea. Not one for lyrics, but a plan.
A plan in which he inspires her to write the greatest Christmas song of all time.
"Then we need to get you inspired." He takes her hand. She lets him drag her away from the counter. He knocks on Mr. Dawson's office door.
"Yes?" he's asked as the door opens.
Austin tightens his grip. "I'm kidnapping Ally for the day. We need to get her inspired to write a Christmas song."
Mr. Dawson glances at their entwined hands. He wishes she could run the store for the day, but who knows what this could lead to. And he's made a pact with the Moons.
Nothing gets in the way of getting their children together.
"Have fun." He pats him on the shoulder.
When he's sure they've left he picks up the phone.
"Mimi? It's Lester."
(the page breaks here)
They're in the basement of his house, and he's trying not to fall off the step stool. She's right behind him, holding him steady.
He does not want to fall on top of her.
It may be romantic in the movies, but he's holding a heavy box, and the weight of him and it would be enough to crush her.
Broken ribs are not romantic.
"Okay, I got it." He takes a step down, her a step back. Then another.
"What is in the box anyway?" She makes room to let him set the box down.
He takes a seat on the stool. Then he undoes the flaps, opening the box. She lifts a bundle of tangled lights from the box.
"Decorations for the Christmas tree. Which you'll be happy to know is not on the top shelf." He steps off the stool and bends down to the bottom shelf. He yanks the box to the ground.
Ally sets the lights back in the box. "You have an artificial tree? I would've never guessed. I had you pegged for the type to search the lot for the perfect tree."
"If it were up to me I would. But my mom hates cleaning up all the needles, so we got this." He pushes the box towards the stairs. He grunts as he lifts an end.
"Maybe we should just set the tree up down here. Then we don't have to worry about getting the box upstairs," Ally suggests. He shakes his head.
He leans the box against the stairs. "I should be able to get it up from here. Can you go around the other end and pull while I push?"
They manage to get the box up the stairs. He goes back down for the box of decorations and she pushes it to the living room.
She's so happy when they finally get it up it the corner that he almost doesn't want to give her the lights.
The terribly tangled lights.
He's not sure how it happened. They're supposed to be untangling the lights, not getting tangled in them.
"Are we even sure these lights work?" she asks, trying to detangle herself.
"Hold on." He manages to unravel himself, for the most part. "Follow me."
She obeys, and they slinky their way over to the electrical plug. He plugs them in. The lights shine.
He turns back around.
He nearly loses all self control.
He nearly kisses her.
How could he not? The lights were framing her face, and she was glowing like an angel. He was so tempted he took a step towards her. Which was exactly when the light hit his eyes and he had to jerk back to rub his eyes.
So he doesn't kiss her.
"Let's get you untangled," he promises, unplugging them.
It takes a few minutes, but she's given him all control and he's going extra slow to make sure he doesn't break the lights.
Clearly it has nothing to do with the fact that he's running his hands up and down her body and she's not complaining.
Not at all.
(the page breaks here)
He steps back down the step stool, where she is once again right behind him. He loops his arm around her.
"Beautiful, isn't it?" She takes it all in. The lights, the homemade ornaments from his childhood, along with the newly placed star glittering atop the tree.
"Yeah," she breathes.
She catches him staring at her, so he removes his arm and moves to unplug the lights.
"Cookie time!" he announces. He leads her to the kitchen.
She takes the apron that he hands her.
"Isn't it a bit early to be making Christmas cookies?"
He slides his apron over his head. "Nonsense Ally. It's never too early for cookies."
"But they won't last until Christmas," she states as he takes the strings from her. He ties them in a neat bow, pulling her hair from underneath the neck strap.
"Then we'll have to do it twice." He yanks a cookbook out of the cupboard.
Besides, that means more quality time with Ally.
(the page breaks here)
"Austin, if we frost the cookies now, it'll melt and make a mess." She takes the cookie from his hand.
He grins at her. "I thought we stopped worrying about that when the batter went flying."
"I told you not to put the mixer on high."
"It was taking forever."
"It's a process. It requires patience." Patience. Because he didn't waste enough of that on Ally. Patiently waiting until she realized they belong together.
She lays the cookies out across the counter top. All of the gingerbread men line up, and she picks out the one casualty of the bunch. "You can have this one."
He lifts her hand to his mouth and takes a bite.
"Thank you Ally." He wipes a crumb from his lip.
He swallows and takes her hand again. She eyeballs him as he takes another bite. He was supposed to take the cookie.
There's one bite left. He wouldn't dare.
He takes her hand, lifts it up and puts the final piece in his mouth. His lips brush her fingers.
She washes her hand, but nothing takes away the tingles her fingers feel.
(this is the page break)
They agree that while they wait for the cookies to cool they're going to have a Christmas movie marathon.
He's singing along to the Island of Misfit Toys. She doesn't think he realizes it, but he's singing right into her ear.
He totally realizes it.
Each and every time there's a song, he realizes it.
He hopes it's driving her crazy.
The good kind of crazy.
He takes Rudolph out of the disc player. It was their fourth movie. And the cookies had to have cooled in the past two hours, right?
"Can we frost the cookies now?" He places the disc back its case.
"Alright." She stands and trips over the empty Christmas decoration box. She's expecting to hit the ground. She's expecting pain and she's not getting it.
She's getting arms wrapped around her.
"You okay?" he asks. He's still holding on, even though she's upright now.
"Yeah." She nudges the box away with her foot.
They walk to the kitchen, where he again ties her apron. This time his fingers linger. Neither of them say anything.
"We should decorate them like our friends." He takes out a box filled with candy. "Dez, Trish, my dancers. Then we could give'em to them."
Ally stops pawing through the candy box. "To eat? Wouldn't that be considered some sort of twisted self cookie cannibalism?"
"Oh." He hadn't thought of it like that.
But there is one thing he needs to know.
If it's cookie cannibalism, then who's the one armed guy that he ate?
(The page breaks here)
When Trish asks Ally how she came up with the song, she relates the story to her. Austin and Dez are getting ready for his performance. They've somehow convinced him to dress as an elf, an idea that while it amuses Trish to no end, is very difficult in execution.
Mainly because of the tights.
Trish laughs, and at first she thinks it's because Austin has come into the room. She looks around.
"Ally, you can't honestly be that clueless."
"What?" She snaps her head back to her best friend.
Trish sets a hand on her arm. "Sweetie, he loves you."
"That's crazy." Austin comes in, and the conversation ends.
She wishes him luck. She knows he'll need it. Dez has his video camera, and soon all of his fans are going to know exactly how Austin Moon looks in tights.
It's a pretty nice view she must admit.
She takes it as a good sign when he isn't laughed off the stage. She takes it as an even better sign when she hears the applause. He escapes behind the curtain.
Once backstage, he runs and hugs her. But it's still bugging her what Trish said, and she half hugs him back.
This confuses him.
"What's wrong?" he holds her at arm length, looking her in the eyes.
"Trish said something." She breaks eye contact.
He gently lifts her chin. "What?"
She stares at him for a moment. He removes his hand, replacing it back on her shoulder.
"Do you like me?"
"Ally, you're my best friend. Of course I like you." He pulls her back in for another hug.
She finds it easier to address the empty space behind him. So she does.
"No, I mean, do you like like me?"
The crowd is cheering his name. The chant gets louder, but he ignores them.
Dez steps behind the curtain.
"Dude, get back out there. They're calling for you!" Austin detaches himself from Ally.
"Just a minute." He takes her by the shoulders one last time and whispers in her ear. "Practice room, five thirty."
He hopes this isn't a big mistake.
Is he too old to sit on Santa's lap and ask for her for Christmas?
(this is the page break)
He's been standing outside the door for three minutes now. He checks the time. The digits change to 30 and he opens the door.
She's chewing her hair.
He holds his hand behind his back and uses the other to remove the locks from her mouth.
"For you." He hands her a flower. It's a poinsettia, one he's taken from the Christmas display.
"What for?" She takes it.
He sits down next to her. "The crowd loved the song. You rocked it Ally. You always rock it."
"The crowd loved you too. With those elf stockings and all." She peers down at his legs.
Nope, no stockings.
They laugh.
The laughter slows, and he's thinking this is the moment. He leans in.
She meets him halfway.
This was definitely the moment.
He hears the door open, but he doesn't stop. With a girl like Ally in his arms he finds it pretty hard to care. He wants the world to know she is his. Starting with Dez and Trish, who are cheering how it's about time.
They're right.
So worth sitting on the fat jolly guy.

Sri Lanka's parliament has voted to extend its tough state of emergency laws for
another month.
Government officials say the extension is needed to eradicate any remnants of Tamil Tiger militants, following the rebel group's defeat in the civil war last month.
The state of emergency gives law enforcement authorities wide-ranging powers to arrest and detain suspects. It has been in place for most of the past 25 years as the government battled Tamil separatists.
Meanwhile, Sri Lanka has turned back a foreign ship carrying humanitarian aid that was paid for by Tamil expatriates. A military official says the Syrian-registered "Captain Ali" had entered Sri Lankan waters without following "proper procedure."
Last week, a military spokesman said Sri Lankan authorities intercepted the vessel about 160 kilometers off of the country's west coast.
In May, Sri Lanka carried out a final assault that ended a 25-year civil war with Tamil Tiger rebels. The rebel group had been fighting for a separate homeland for the ethnic Tamil minority.
The United Nations estimates as many as 100,000 people died in the conflict.

"For the first time, you made me realize that loosing someone is sometimes the only way to love yourself."
-Rania Naim

#You #Are #The #Ocean
"My mom doesn't believe in love. I think she stopped after my dad painted her soft skin with the harsh colors of blue and purple one too many times. Or maybe it was after the nights he came home smelling of cheap perfume she'd never wear. Or no, I bet she stopped when he picked their son as the canvas for his unwarranted anger. Growing up, she'd tell me that she'd pray God would make her heart like stone, like the rocks that the sea beats against over and over; she craved their inability to feel. She claims her prayers were answered, but sometimes, when she sees old couples walking hand in hand still very much in love, she turns to me with a sad smile and reveals that she always thought that'd be her and him and I have to look away. That smile, it's her achilles heel; it tells of her shattered dreams and whispers softly of her broken heart.
My mom doesn't believe in love. As soon as I could understand the concept she drilled it into my head that there was no such thing. She thought it was a waste of time, sneered at those who tried to say it was one of the things worth living for. Unnecessary, dangerous was how she described it. She said she'd be damned if I fell into its trap and ruined my life for a boy that would leave me broken.
Now I don't know how to tell her that I feel the things she warned against. I dont know how to tell her that my heart jumps when I look into his eyes or press my lips to his. I don't know how to tell her that I fell for a boy with plain brown eyes and a smile that reminds me of the sun. I don't know how to tell her that I gave him my heart and now he has the power to ruin me.
She's going to be so disappointed."
- n.g //
Wear your skin like armour.
I genuinely don't know if I'm on a path towards happiness or a path of self destruction. Just please don't let me break someone I hold close to my heart.

One of the most frustrating parts of this set up was getting the storage array talking to the servers. I finally got it figured out. I'm using a StorageTek 2530 to connect to two SunFire X2100 M2's via SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) cables. I put in a dual port SAS HBA (Host Bus Adapter) in the X2100 M2's, but for real redundancy, I should have used two single port HBA's. The Sun/Oracle documentation is pretty good about how to physically set up the servers and storage array, but are pretty lacking from there on.
StorageTek 2530 Set Up
Replace the parts in squares brackets below with whatever you want.
- Install the Sun CAM software.
- Grab the latest version from http://support.oracle.com
- You'll need an active support contract and have an account.
- Go to the 'Patches and Updates' tab.
- Click on the 'Product or Family (Advanced)' link
- In the 'Product is' section start typing in 'Sun Storage Common Array Manager (CAM)' and select it from the list
- In the 'Release is' section select the most recent version
- For the last section, select 'Platform' and then select 'Linux x86-64'
- Click 'Search'
- Click the 'Download' link for the software.
- Upload the tar file to the server.
- Pre-requisite software that needs to be installed.
yum install ksh bc /lib/ld-linux.so.2 libgcc.i686 libstdc++.i686 libzip.i686 gettext
- Once CAM software is downloaded, un-zipped, un-tarred or what have you, change directories to HostSoftwareCD_220.127.116.11/components and install the jdk available there:
rpm -Uvh jdk-6u20-linux-i586.rpm
- Next run the RunMe.bin file in the HostSoftwareCD_188.8.131.52 folder
./RunMe.bin -c
- Agree to all License Agreement stuffs
- Select the Typical install.
- Grab the latest version from http://support.oracle.com
- Add the
/opt/sun/cam/binfolder to path
- With root using tcsh add this to .tcshrc
setenv PATH ${PATH}:/opt/sun/cam/bin
- Then do
source .tcshrc
- With root using tcsh add this to .tcshrc
- Make sure there is an IP on the same subnet as the array (192.168.128.xxx)
- Make a
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1:1file and put this in there
- Install the RAID Proxy Agent package located in the Add_On/RaidArrayProxy directory of the latest CAM software distribution. (I found this to be optional.)
rpm -ivh SMruntime.xx.xx.xx.xx-xxxx.rpm
rpm -ivh SMagent-LINUX-xx.xx.xx.xx-xxxx.rpm
- Make a
- Register the StorageTek with the host. Process can take several minutes.
sscs register -d storage-system
- Once registered, you can name the array anything you want. Note what the array is named from the previous step.
sscs modify -T [Array-Name] array ARRAY1
- If using the web interface, you have to use a windows laptop hooked up to the local network (192.168.128.xxx), or perhaps a server in the same local network that is not running CentOS 6, which has a known issue where the web interface does not work. For the web interface connect to https://localhost:6789 using the laptop or server Administrator/root account information.

To utilize both cables connecting the server to the storage array, the OS needs to use multi-pathing. I had lots of troubles trying to set this up after the OS was installed, so I just let it be done by the installer. Here's what should happen if you find the OS already installed and need to set up multi-paths.
- Set up DM-Multipath
- NOTE: This is taken care of during the OS installation.
- Multipath allows both SAS connections to the storage array to appear as one connection to the server. This allows for data to pass through even if one cable suddenly stops working, it seamlessly fails to the other path. For example, taken the image above, if the connection between hba1->cntrlr1 goes down, you still have connection hba2->cntrlr2. The OS sees one connection, and just uses whichever path is working.
- After Multipath is set up, the storage array will be available as a device at
/dev/mapper/mpatha. This will be the device to partition, format, and throw LVM on.
- Install the multipath program and dependents
yum install device-mapper-multipath
- Run
mpathconf --enableto create a default
/etc/multipath.conffile or create one using the following:
# multipath.conf written by anacondadefaults {
user_friendly_names yes
blacklist {
devnode "^(ram|raw|loop|fd|md|dm-|sr|scd|st)[0-9]*"

Windows 7 x64 Ultimate
This may not be possible since it is a laptop but...
Indeed you are not getting a DHCPed address from your router. There could be a LOT of reasons for that unfortunately.
In the end though, there is one solution that might work if all else fails:
My solution to the problem on my desktop was to manually set a fixed IP address(outside the DHCP range of my router of course) as well as manually setting the DNS and gateway by hand for the adapter.

Windows 7 Ultimate
What model or brand is the router? What type of ISP are you on, ie dsl or cable? If cable no need to worry about ppoe settings. With 169, just means that he is not getting an IP from the router, that is an OS generated IP. I think we need some history on this. Did this start right after the upgrade? Or did it work for a while and then go bad? Forgive me if these have been addressed already. If reseting the winsock did not work, then he can try another nic card and see if that helps. I have seen instances where nic cards have good drivers, but for the life of whatever, will not connect. I have also seen where Vista machines had issues connecting to certain models of routers (depending on how old the router is) [hence my question the model of the router], and it had something to do with the dhcp flag settings. I had to edit the registry to make the machine "compatible" wih the router. Toggle this setting and see if it helps
Click Start, type regedit in the Start Search box, and then click regedit in the Programs list. If you are prompted for an administrator password for confirmation, type your password, and click Continue.
ii)Locate and then click the following registry subkey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\Interfaces\{GUID}. In this registry path, click the (GUID) subkey that corresponds to the network adapter that is connected to the network.
iii)Right-click DhcpConnForceBroadcastFlag, and then click Modify.
iv)In the Value data box, type the broadcast flag (0 or 1), and then click OK.
v)Close Registry Editor.
vi)Restart the machine.

That's funny! While I was reading this thread suddenly my net stopped working!
I realized that I'm having the same problem! Once I had this before but that time i could solve it as I told it in this thread.
Now it is here again.
I've made some pictures for you boys:
I have a 7600 installed on an other partition so I tried to start that and connect with that,
and I found there exactly the same issue as here with the 7201. That 7600 is a 1 day old fresh and clean install, so The problem can not be a driver problem. (I've tried to connect with an other USB wifi card, and it did not solved the problem, so it is not a driver problem.)
I have an other Wireless Router so I tried to use that, but the problem still persists, so It is not a router configuration problem either. But then what else can be? The Windows 7?
If I reset the router and use it without any security option (wep,etc) the connection is OK. But it is not a solution.
I'm running MSE and Windows Firewall on the 7201, and NOTHING on the 7600.
I tried system restore also, but didn't help.
With my laptop running an XP I can still connect to the network without any issue!
Any other idea?
Someone please help!
Thanx in advance!

Linux CENTOS 7 / various Windows OS'es and servers
Hi all
Unfortunate but some LAN cards built into laptops are STILL only 32 bit capable so even if it says its working you wont get a connection on a 64 bit OS including VISTA X-64.
For example the Via Velocity gigabit ones won't work with a 64 bit OS whatever Windows says about the drivers.
I don't know but maybe theres some problem with WOW for these ethernet cards.
I got round the problem by using an Agere PCI express ethernet card (you can also get a VERY CHEAP USB===>LAN adapter costs sround 3 USD).
Wireless strangely enough ususally works.

First Blog - Word War
Published by Daciana in the blog Daciana's blog. Views: 123
I'm not really sure what people normally post on blogs. I guess they're suppose to be like diaries or something, but I just can't understand why everyone wants a public diary. Aren't those suppose to be small books with locks that you hide under your pillow or in your sock drawer and pray your brother never finds? Besides that the only diaries that ever become famous are the ones in which the author has an exciting life. There is nothing exciting about my life. The most exciting thing that happened today was... well I'm not sure anything exciting happened today. Kaia (my puppy) chewed up my pillow, but that's normal. She likes pillows and is determined to ensure that I have nothing to rest my head on. I suppose it's better than eating the couch though; pillows are cheap to replace in comparison.
My friend Daven taught me how to do word wars. He won every time. I guess I'm a slow writer, or perhaps process ideas slower than Daven. Anyway, I wrote 229 words in 10 minutes, which amounted to an amusing character. Daven thinks I should continue the story. Unfortunately I don't know how to continue it. Ideas? Here's the start:
Henry was a quiet man. He always lived alone, traveled alone, worked alone, and ate alone. Everyone said he must be so lonely, but the truth was he never felt lonely; he just appreciated his space. He never wanted to live, travel, work, or eat with anyone, because people were generally annoying. With them came drama and stress. Henry never knew what to say when something went wrong, how to congratulate someone when something went right, or how to have a proper conversation. His latest failure to communicate came when he was standing in line at the grocery store.
"good afternoon sir," the cashier said. "How are you today?"
Henry, not understanding the purpose in this question, replied, "I don't see why you would care, we don't know each other and most likely we will never see each other again. That information is not crucial to performing your job and I don't understand why everyone wants to know how I'm doing. Paper please."
The cashier remained silent aside from telling Henry the amount he owed and asking for his signature during the rest of his transaction. Due to uncomfortable conversations like these, Henry worked from home, made his own coffee and all his own food. The only person he ever had to communicate with was the grocery cashier on his weekly trips. This was the way Henry liked it.
After rereading it, i think it could use some revision too. I guess I'll work on that now...

Comments about Exclusive Cable Cutters, 10" Long:
Fits nicely in the side pocket of my bunker pants. It is so much easier just to have it in your pocket instead of wasting time getting it off the truck when you need to quickly cut the battery cables before beginning extrication. Also, it's a good tool to have in a firefighter survival mode if something unexpected happens in an IDLH situation.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

"Never Let Me Go" by Kazuo Ishiguro Knopf, 288 pp., $24 Coming up Kazuo Ishiguro The author of "Never Let Me Go" will read at 7 p.m. Tuesday in the Microsoft...
"Never Let Me Go"
by Kazuo Ishiguro
Knopf, 288 pp., $24
The opening paragraph of Kazuo Ishiguro's "Never Let Me Go" clearly states that there are "carers" and "donors" in what seems to be a rather ordinary world in late 1990s England. What is not so clear is who those carers and donors are, or their involvement in a "ghastly truth" which Ishiguro slowly reveals through a subtle narrative and sinister plot.
Kathy H. is the 31-year-old first-person narrator of this cautionary tale of speculative fiction. She and her friends, Tommy and Ruth, form an ill-fated love triangle in what is evidently a dystopian society. Although "reared in a humane, cultivated environment," they have been designed for a single, greater purpose with an ultimate scientific end. As a result, they suffer from lost childhoods and limited maturities.
The three cohorts have been raised in the privileged confines of a private school called Hailsham located in the British countryside. But there are some strange facts about Hailsham. Commonplace experiences soon appear off-center and suspicious. The faculty are referred to as "guardians." There's no mention of parents. Sex is "casual and functional," and the children cannot have children of their own.

It begins to look like M. Night Shyamalan territory when "normal people outside" call the children "sweethearts" and deliver necessary food items and gifts to the secluded, forested school grounds. A rebellious guardian disappears after she promises to tell the children "how they were brought into the world and why."
The novel vibrates with intrigue and internal tension. When the children move from the elementary school level to a newfound independence at "the Cottages," misunderstandings and adolescent manipulations lead to betrayals of friendship. Ishiguro prepares the reader for the inevitable limitations of hope in the shadows of futility. The chilling discovery about the true fate of the children is both devastating and haunting.
"Never Let Me Go" is a shuddering glance into the braver newer world of the 21st century and the possible results of far-reaching consequences from late-20th-century scientific experiments couched in the guise of life-affirming experiments.

Event Description
January Sales Barcelona 2017
Rebajas de invierno - les rebaixes d'hivern
Event date: Tuesday 7th January 2017 to 31st January 2017
Event location: Barcelona
January Sales Barcelona also called winter sales - las rebajas de invierno. The January sales traditionally start on the 7th January - the day after the "Reyes" Three Kings day, which is a public holiday, but some stores start the sales in the days leading up to the Reyes festivities.
Sales usually last 3 or 4 weeks until around the end of January or first week of February. In most stores there are three "rebajas" stages which you can see signposted in the shop windows. They are 'las primeras rebajas', then a bigger discount during the second 'segundas rebajas', but usually with less items and sizes. Finally 'el remate final de las rebajas,' which are the last clearance sales.
There are also 2 outlet malls near Barcelona called La Roca Village and Viladecans The Style Outlets

International Criminal Court judges have expanded an investigation in Ivory Coast to cover atrocities dating back to 2002 and committed against a backdrop of political turmoil in the West African nation, the court announced Thursday.
The written decision dramatically stretches the scope of the probe originally launched into violence that erupted after presidential elections late in 2010 and left at least 3,000 people dead.
Former President Laurent Gbagbo was sent to the court last year to face charges of murder, rape and other crimes allegedly committed by his supporters as he clung to power after last year's elections.
Rights groups have long called for the court's prosecutor to look at earlier violence triggered by a political power struggle in Ivory Coast stemming from an attempted coup in 2002.
Gbagbo was elected president in disputed 2000 elections and clung to power after the coup two years later which effectively split Ivory Coast in half, with rebels controlling the north and Gbagbo forces the south. Both rebels and pro-Gbagbo forces have been accused of atrocities.
Gbagbo repeatedly delayed elections due in 2005 and then when the poll was finally held in 2010, refused to concede defeat after losing to current President Alassane Ouattara. That sparked yet more violence in a nation once considered a beacon of stability in West Africa.
The expanded investigation is a chance to end a "decade of impunity" in Ivory Coast, Human Rights Watch said in a statement.
"None of the grave crimes committed between 2002 and 2010 have ever been effectively prosecuted," the statement said. "The ICC prosecutor should now move quickly with investigations into crimes committed by all sides, ensuring impartial justice for the horrors that Ivorians have suffered."
In a written decision, judges concluded that although political violence climaxed in late 2010 and into 2011, "it appears that this was a continuation of the ongoing political crisis and the culmination of a long power struggle" in the country.
The judges said that based on evidence presented by prosecutors, "acts of murder and rape that could amount to war crimes or crimes against humanity were committed."

So, we covered the 2007 releases of new Foamposite One colorways for Classics Revisited already. 2008 would prove to be a bit of a slow-down year, as this House-of-Hoops Exclusive release of the Black/Dark Army Foamposite One, otherwise called the 'Dark Army Foams', would prove to be the only new Foamposite One colorway (the Royal Foams dropped again in 2008 as a HoH-exclusive). The Dark Army Foamposite released on August, 28th, 2008, at House of Hoops in Harlem, NYC, and featured a solid black upper with a white Swoosh at the forefoot, paired with a Dark Army green gum rubber outsole. These were an extremely limited release (82 pairs total) and fetch a bundle on the resale market.

One of my good friends Sacha got engaged over Easter weekend and I could not be more happier for her! She was ecstatic and is so excited about getting married. However, Sacha moved over to the UK to be with her new fiance Kevin when he was promoted in his job. Her family and very close friends are living in her native home South Africa, it is pricey to fly the 7 hours over here. Even though she was so unbelievably happy to have a stunning rock placed on her finger she has missed sharing in the joyous occassion physically with them.
This Friday I am having a BBQ due to the glorious weather England has been relishing in this week
(although now saying that the Sun will probably change it's mind lol). My close friends and I have decided to assemble a basket of goodies to give to her as a way of showing that even though her family aren't here we are here - always - to celebrate with her.
A bottle of wine, wedding magazines, a blue necklace, my best friends wedding on dvd, wedding book and a small frame. My Mum says that is enough but it doesn't fill the basket and she really deserves to be spoiled! At the age of 19 (she is now 20) to move away from all your family and friends to a new country, people and work is daunting.Get your thinking caps on guys - engagement ideas please? :)
Today in England it is living up to its label. Good ol' Rainy England.
I love the sunshine but there is one reason why I love rain too. It is my favourite sound! (very closely followed by the beeping sound of the atm machine giving me money.)
There is nothing more relaxing to me than going to bed or waking up to the sound of the rain. I, also, love the dewey smell it releases in spring when soil is fresh. I have a lovely feeling of nostalgia overcome me when it rains and it pours. I captured it on video, the actual footage is rubbish because you can't see the rain bucketing it down. Yet, I just wanted to film the sound for myself and to share with you guys. (I know everyone has heard rain lol but this is English rain - a whole new meaning
I remember when I was younger I would just stand motionless in the rain, in my sesame street (yellow!) raincoat, and just day-dream to the sound of the rain.
What sounds make you nostalgic or you just love?! I would love to know!
During my Nurses training when I have asked patient's about their past medical history, if they have had one, every female has
shouted from the rooftops whispered to me that they have had an abortion. I just find it extraordinary, and you may not agree, but they can quite easily at a normal tone of voice talk about their asthma, their depression or their current state of health. Yet, they whisper they terminated another life. I have been taught that this occurs because they feel guilty and I hate to admit this. I really do. They should feel darn right guilty, if their baby was perfectly compatible for life on this planet.
This has come strongly to my attention due to Stephanie's recent post. If you have not read it then you should because it speaks volumes. It speaks for the voices of the innocent lives that didn't have the chance to walk this Earth. It speaks volumes for the infertile. It speaks volumes to the people who have lost their most precious and valuable posessions - the baby's they made out of pure love and want.
It speaks volumes to me. This is where I will be very honest and frank with you.
When I was 16 years old I was diagnosed with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS). At the time I was pretty ignorant of what it caused because it meant I didn't have a period every month. I was free of pain, nausea and being extra hygienic all the time. Whoo, right?!
Then I started to have the most awful mood swings and so I decided to go on the contraceptive pill. I thought having a pill induced (artificial) menstrual cycle would help. I then decided to really research PCOS and what it entailed because all my doctor said was that I wasn't finished growing and that once my body had settled my cycle would be back to normal again. Therefore, the PCOS wouldn't be so bad.
I wish I hadn't have been so naive to believe her because she missed an awful lot out of the equation.
The biggest long term side effect of PCOS is reduced fertility or complete infertility. At the time of finding this out I wasn't so worried because the little future nurse in me believes in medical science and break-throughs. I still do :) Then on May 4th, of last year, I was rushed to hospital after collapsing and falling unconcious with severe abdominal pains. The cysts on my Ovaries had ruptured completely affecting their function. I thought that was the worst of it but what my doctor delivered to me next was heart-wrenching.
I was then told by my doctor that my chances of having children naturally had dramatically decreased by 70%.
I could not believe that I was 19 years old and hearing this, let alone trying to make sense of it. I had never thought of having children at that age but to be told that both my ovaries had 15% function each. I was devatasted and beyond tears/anger.
I will always remain positive for my future as a mother because there is always hope. Forever and always.
I have always disagreed with abortion. Stephanie and the campaign are correct. Responsibility begins at conception. When I hear of the thousands of abortions that take place annually. I just think of how my desire to carry something as beautiful as a life, that mine and your parents have freely given, has been crushed by 70%.
As I am not a US citizen I cannot send this letter but I urge all who can to send this Red Letter, in reflection of the lives already greedily taken, to President Obama. I have signed countless petitions to the UK government. They have listened in the sense that partial birth abortions are not legal but to me, and so many others, that is not enough.
Heya eveyone.
I hope your're all having a good week and looking forward to the Easter weekend!
My news may not sound that exciting to you but I am so happy to have been asked. My University where I attend nursing school have asked me to produce a video/v-log for prospective students who are thinking of studying where I attend. They have given me a list of questions that have been asked by future attendees. I thought this was brilliant and out of 30 people in my degree group they asked me and 2 other girls :)
On top of that my professor is currently writing a book and has been gloating about it for weeks. Seriously I think she was more enamored by her book than teaching us about NG tubes lol. She found out that some people in my class are doing this v log for students to get sent out via email and in interview selections.
Well she asked us if we could be apart of the book by taking certain elements from the individual videos we do! I was so happy but I kind of ruined the moment by asking if my name could look pretty in a different font. Font Arial isn't my thing lol. It was so typical of my mouth to produce those words lol!
Anyway she said that she wanted our V-logs to have a personal style to them as well as just drawing in future students. I was at a loss at what to talk about. I really had no idea at what she meant by personal, so I mentioned that in my spare time I blog. My professor thought it would be a great idea to involve you guys by asking me anything!
Anything you like.
It could be to do with my nursing, opinions, anything you want to know more about or anything you may be just curious to asking.
The whole idea is that future students don't just want to know about what being at nursing school is like. They have to get to know the variety of students there are and their lives, beliefs and cultures they get up to outside of nursing school. All your questions will be answered and I will show you the finished product in the end.
I would really like it if you could help me out. Professor de Souza is hard to please and I love the idea of you guys being involved by helping and guiding me. The more questions you ask the better. I am just so thrilled to do something different other than essays and research articles! Below are the of type questions that I have already been set so don't ask me them lol.
Why I wanted to be a nurse, why I chose the nursing school I am at, what do you think makes a good nurse, is the course hard, how easy is it to settle into the routine.
Thank you guys. You are the greatest!
Heya Everyone :)
A very happy (Palm) Sunday to you all. I have done another blog video - I am on a roll!
I am having a day where vanity is getting the better of me. Argh! The video will pretty much explain the idea of love bites or hickeys. I do not know which you prefer or namesake the 'things'! However, if you guys could help or at least understand the shallow depths I have gone to then I am calling you all saints. lol.
My Mum did highlight that there are more things to worry about but we all have to admit there are petty things in life we all fret about. I know there is a bigger picture in life where there are bigger things to worry about. In the mean time enjoy the idea that vanity and shallowness are not virtues. :)
Talk to you guys soon.
I wanted to share something with you. I got this idea from Stacie and I thought it was brilliant! It is a picture 'Mosaic Maker' where you find 9 pictures to 9 questions about you. It's simple and I really enjoyed finding things that reflect myself. I hope you take part :)
All you have to do is:
1) Go to Flickr and using only the first search page place in the answers to one of the 9 questions into the search engine.
2) Then copy and paste the URL's for each image you choose into the 'Mosaic Maker' at: http://bighugelabs.com/flickr/mosaic.php. Remember to change the columns to 3x3.
3) Voila! Save it to your computer and then you have your Mosaic that completely resonates you!
This is my one, I love it.

Marlie has some very persuasive techniques, however, and after one seductive, drugging kiss, Dex is hooked - on the film, on Marlie, on the prospect of living again. But every documentary takes on a life of its own. And this one promises an ending that none of them could ever have anticipated….

North Shore, Dole Pineapple Plantation, Dinner Cruise
Waipahu Travel Blog› entry 7 of 8 › view all entries
Today i rented a car again from Enterprise (Highly recommended, especially after the Alamo experience I will tell you about), and drove up to the Dole Pineapple Plantation. They had a nice tour train that went around the plantation and I got to see all the pineapple growing, along with a whole bunch of other fruits. It had spectacular views from the plantation, and I learned alot about the process we go through to get pineapple. I bought some souveniers, and off to the North Shore.
The North shore is a beautiful place. The day was windy and rainy, so there were breaking waves up to 25 feet, according to the radio. I didn't get to lay on the beach like I'd hoped, I was afraid I would have blown away.. lol
I found a really good little shrimp stand on the side of the road and had shrimp for lunch, then I drove 10 miles and looked around the place where they grow the shrimp, which was really interesting. The road took me back down past the Polynesian Cultural Center, and I was able to stop on the way back and take more pictures. I saw some of the places where they filmed 50 First Dates, and took a ton of pictures of the ocean and the mountains.
when I got back to Waikiki, it was only about 2, so I took the road back down around Sea Life Park, and drove on H3 to get back, which apparently is one of the most controversial highways in the US. It took 30 years to build, and cost about 1.5 Billion dollars, for a stretch of highway that is about 5 miles long. The view was awesome though, and definitly worth the trip.
After I dropped off the car, I went back to the hotel and took another shower to get ready for the dinner cruise. I found myself on a bus with about 30 Iraqui's, which was interesting because I spent most of the drive out to the pier trying to figure out what language they were talking and I finally had to ask someone. The dinner cruise was nice, they had a good show, and the Mai Tai's were the best I'd had yet. It was a little bit depressing to be what seemed like the only single person there, but that's ok. lol.. I got back to the hotel around 9, and had to go right to bed so I could be up early the next day.

Upgrading to SSD
I'm still a noob at computers. My lenovo y50 uses windows 8. I purchased a new Samsung 850 EVO SSD 500gb to replace my 5400 rpm WD slim 1 tb. Without formatting the drive, I inserted the empty drive into a external enclosure, attached a SATA connector though USB on the laptop. First I tried Samsung's data migration to clone, which was successful, but when I replaced the WD slim, after booting it showed the lenovo screen and it immediately went to a blank black screen (mouse shows and HDD activity light blinks). I take the drive out, put back in the enclosure and used Macrium Reflect to clone it. Replaced the drive again and upon booting, it showed the lenovo logo and at the bottom was performing automatic repair. After a few minutes, it said automatic repair couldn't be performed and asked to shut down, this was an endless loop. Both times, the bios recognizes the SSD. So I finally decided to just create an image from macrium reflect on an external hard drive. The image went successful and it passed the verify option, no errors. My question is, do I have to reformat the SSD though disk management again? To restore the image on the SSD, can I put the SSD in an external enslosure with a SATA connector attached via USB and restore the image that way? Would still that be considered an image? If I replaced the HD again, I want to be 100% sure it will boot normally with no problems and function normal. Thanks for advice!

My question is, do I have to reformat the SSD though disk management again?
You shouldn't have to. An image restoration will do the necessary formatting automatically.
To restore the image on the SSD, can I put the SSD in an external enslosure with a SATA connector attached via USB and restore the image that way?
I've never tried it as I don't use enclosures, but why not just put the SSD into the internal bay where it's supposed to be and restore to that from the external? I'd think restoring to the SSD in an enclosure would just be an unnecessary complication.
If I replaced the HD again, I want to be 100% sure it will boot normally with no problems and function normal.
You are imaging. Therefore, you cannot be 100% sure of anything. It's not a foolproof process, but it seems to be more reliable than cloning. You have to be prepared to have imaging and cloning both fail and have another plan--typically a clean install.

Normally I would create the system image onto the same drive as the os I was imaging if I didn't have an extra one to place the system image on.
Then I would create the WinPE recovery media so I had that to boot to and use to restore the system image.
I would then remove the old hdd and install the new ssd where it was,
Install the old hdd with the system image into the external enclosure.
Boot to the WinPE recovery cd or flash media and restore the image to the new ssd.
Seeing this is a win-8 machine you'd probably have to disable fast start and Secure boot so you could boot to the WinPE recovery media.

Whenever you reimage a drive, it automatically reformats the target drive. You don`t have to do it.
My question is, why aren`t you doing a clean install on the new ssd ?
That way you`ll have a beautifully clean pristine PC ?
Other then the fact that you will still be using Windows 8

I swapped my laptop 750gb HDD w/a Samsung Pro 500gb SSD a few months ago. Take addRAM's advice and perform a clean install! Can't tell you how many hrs I wasted on the clone/image route... encountered far too many issues to even list here, so I won't. Eventually performed a clean OS install, downloaded & installed apps and then just migrated old HDD data files to the new SSD.

Funny I just restored an image on a 850 evo last weekend worked great and operates great
Of course I went from one ssd to another ssd
An hdd might need a little cleanup but reflect does trim operation pretty well I believe.

Thank you for all the replies. A clean install sounds really good, but I don't want to reinstall all the programs, windows updates and games from steam and origin. After imaging, I noticed from the macrium reflect log history #2: SYSTEM_DRV and #3: LRS_ESP, the actual size is 4 mb less. #2 total size is 260 mb and #3 is 1000 gb, than the original. What is #4 Will this be a problem when restoring to the SSD? Why is the total size off? Verify option was a success, no errors and from the log, there was no errors as well.
|My System Specs
|15 Jul 2016
What settings did you make within Macrium just before you made the image file?
Specifically--did you select certain partitions manually and leave certain partitions unselected?
Or did you choose "image selected disks on this computer"?
Or did you choose "create an image of the partition(s) required to backup and restore Windows"?
Or did you do something else?
You need to post a screen shot of Windows Disk Management show we can see the details of your partition layout. The pic you did post doesn't show that detail.
Lastly--have you made Macrium restore (recovery) media?
The successful verification is no guarantee that an image restoration will succeed.
|My System Specs
|15 Jul 2016
Well, when macrium reflect v5.1.5870 opened, all the partitions were already selected and I chose to 'image this disk' below. I used the recommended settings 'medium compression level', 'intelligent sector copy', 'automatic file size', and 'highest priority'. I created the image using an admin. account I disabled real time protection on my antivirus and didn't have anything open or running in task manager while the image was being created, screen saver was off. Yes I created a bootable USB 'windows PE 4.0' Here is disk management of my OEM hard drive, this was before the image was created.

I strongly encourage anyone considering GameMaker to look at Phaser.io instead. You learn real technologies that will carry you farther than the proprietary and drag-and-drop GameMaker, (which is now owned by an online video gambling/gaming company). We have dropped GameMaker from all classes at SkilStak after it corrupted a student's game irrecoverably. He was the 6th in 3 years to lose everything because of GameMaker bugs. He would have had to reassemble everything from assets and saved code, which is stored in XML and prone to horrible merge conflicts when combined with GitHub for beginners. Just say no to GameMaker.
GameMaker @yoyogames crashed and corrupted student games for the LAST TIME! Game-1 now based on phaser.io thanks to @photonstorm #html5
Actually, it`s a delibrate feature for GMS to corrupt games, if something fishy comes with license. Rumors are that only Master Collection edition is exempt from this.

This is my first visit to this site. I have had a total of 8 surgeries over the past year and my surgeon has proven to be quite untrustworthy. This is Dr. Bruce Kerner. I live in central ohio. Can anyone recommened another Colorectal doctor in my area?
Jun 15, 2005 - 1:35 pm
I am sorry to hear your frustration. Believe me I know where you are coming from. We had a dr. that I didn't trust and we changed and things are great since then (at least with our faith in the Dr).

Ahoy there, Bengals...
If you are willing to shed the tiger stripes and enter into BROWNS territory there is always the Mayo Clinic in Cleveland.
I am glad to see that you are willing to fire a doctor that is not working for you. Always remember that doctors work FOR you as your health care ADVISOR. You pay them... not the other way around. Be sure to find one that works with you and allows you to be an integral part of your healthcare team.

Hi, fellow Buckeye! My oncologist is Dr. Taral Patel at St. Ann's Hospital in Westerville, OH. I trust him completely. My surgeon was also EXCELLENT, and his name is Dr. Marcus Miller, also with the Mount Carmel group. Good luck!

With the recent losses of several important sources of rust resistance to new virulent rust strains, researchers at the University of Adelaide's Waite Campus and the CSIRO Division of Plant Industry are actively searching for new genes to incorporate into new wheat varieties for Australia.
The Adelaide team includes Ian Dundas and Dawn Verlin, who are targeting the wild grass relatives of wheat for new resistances. Rust-resistance genes from wild relatives of wheat have long been a valuable mainstay of Australian wheats, and have been used in many cultivars (e.g. Janz, Nyabing, Sunvale, Giles).
The Adelaide team has searched the world (with assistance from Dr Rafiqul Islam, Adelaide University) for wild species with resistance to stem, leaf and stripe rusts. Over 30 accessions of species of Triticum and Thinopyrum were then imported from Israel, the USA and Canada and local work at PBI Cobbitty confirmed their rust resistance. Several lines with the highest levels of rust resistance are now being targeted for further work.
Dr Dundas and Ms Verlin are also targeting several chromosome segments carrying resistance genes that were transferred to wheat from wild grass species by other researchers. These resistances have never been released in commercial cultivars because of their associations with yield and quality defects. The Waite team are trying to develop new stocks with the rust-resistance genes but lacking the undesirable traits.
Similar research at CSIRO in Canberra is also yielding benefits for wheat producers. Some years ago Phil Larkin and Phillip Banks (now at the Leslie Research Centre, Toowoomba) located a strong source of resistance to barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) in the grass Thinopyrum intermedium. The resistance was transferred to wheat using cell culture techniques. The first cultivar with this resistance, the world's first BYDV-resistant wheat, is the dual-purpose winter wheat Mackellar, developed by CSIRO.
Dr Larkin and his team are now exploiting another alien translocation from Thinopyrum elongatum that carries two potentially valuable rust resistances, Lr19 and Sr25. These genes have not been used in Australia because of an association with a gene causing extreme yellow flour. By luck, the Lr19 resistance and the BYDV resistance found earlier are on the same wheat chromosome arm. Attempts are being made to combine the best genes from the two Thinopyrum species and to eliminate the deleterious genes.

Perkins: Romney campaign 'another failed model'
Family Research Council president Tony Perkins told NBC's David Gregory that Mitt Romney has exacerbated social conservative doubts about his beliefs by running a campaign that "has excluded … social conservative issues" from the 2012 conversation. Here's what Perkins had to say:
You know, Mitt Romney has changed his positions and I believe him; I believe that Mitt Romney is pro-life. And I've talked to him about his conversion on that issue, through the issue of embryonic stem cell research. He has said so much on that issue, I do not doubt one bit that Mitt Romney, if he's president, will take pro-life positions. There are other things he's not been as clear as, and how much of a priority would it be? I don't know. Four years ago he was focusing on those issues more, this time he's not talking about them and for his critics who questioned his -- the authenticity of his conversion last time, that only gives them more credibility. …
Well, as I have gotten to know Mitt Romney more -- or watching him; I, I wouldn't say that I am personal friends with him -- I have had conversations with him -- I think he's a very astute businessman; if you look at his business career, he did adopt a business model for a situation. Last election, 2008, I think he had a business model that focused on social conservatives and being the social conservative candidate. Quite frankly, that model didn't work for him, because he just didn't have what it took to close the deal then. He's adopted a different business model, which unfortunately has excluded, for the most part, those social conservative issues and those social conservative voters. I, I think it's another failed model.
Perkins hasn't personally endorsed a candidate in the 2012 race, but he was part of a coalition of evangelical leaders who voted in a presidential preference poll won by Rick Santorum. And Perkins said he thinks it will be difficult for anyone to lock up the nomination early, suggesting that Romney may have mistakenly expected to show up at CPAC and ask conservatives to "sign on the dotted line for joining his campaign."
Back in October, Perkins told me at the FRC-hosted Values Voter Summit that he trusted Romney's position on abortion, but believed Romney needed to spend more time talking about his cultural positions to reassure the GOP base. That obviously hasn't happened, and the emergence of Santorum as a credible candidate has given longtime Christian conservative leaders a place to go in the race that's a better bet than Rick Perry and maybe a more comfortable match than Newt Gingrich.
