CodePlexProject Hosting for Open Source Software
Firstly, what a great tool! Since downloading it I have passed it on to so many people I've lost count :)
I like looking at the source code to see how you've done things, but the latest source code download for the build 1.1.8 is incomplete. It seems to be missing:
Can these be added to the download so that we are able to compile the source?
Hi !
Thanks for the nice words and for spreading it on, and for noticing me of the missing files.
I have uploaded them now, changeset 9390.
Note that access to the TFS server have changed, and remains of the old code is still there, making it a bit messy. It should be further cleaned up, but that have to be the next time.
best regards

So, having wandered about the office all day, desperately trying to look like walking was a natural motion, unaffected by the searing pain in my left ankle, David and I duly set off for Hyde Park.
When I say pain and walking in the same sentence, it's usually not a good thing for the challenge. Today was the extreme version of this and to be frank, I wasn't sure I'd be running at all.
This week saw a new member of the holidays team, Eleanor join us. It was good to meet you! We set off at a comfortable pace (or rather I set off at a pace that felt just about ok and hoped everyone would be happy with it!) and continued with this for a couple of miles. I actually found that, despite the tightness in my achilles, a gentle pace to start with actually seemed to ease the leg into the idea that running was on the cards, and we managed the three miles ok. Eleanor accompanied me for an extra half a mile and there we have it, another day done. Just about!
Post run, walking to the pub, Damian started to complain of the same tightness in the achilles.
It can only be… the cycling on Sunday. It's clear now that hauling ourselves and bikes up some very steep inclines has probably done neither of us any good. We're both complaining of the same ailment. Not a good sign at all.
A quick beer or two and a slow and cold walk home…
More tomorrow morning.
Have a good chilly Wednesday,
Miles today: 3.50
Target: 360
Miles to date: 414.50

Welding can be dangerous if you don't have the proper gear for the job. It is easy to get hurt while working with a welding machine. Harm can occur because the electric sparks that are produced usually make bright, high flames. Those sparks and flames can quickly cause eye and facial injuries if you are working without protection. The brightness of the flame can be damaging in itself because it is so bright. The focused ultraviolet and gamma rays that emanate from that vibrant flame can cause a flash burn or even arc eye—injury to the surface layer of the eye. This article will help you find the best welding helmet for you, and we have also provided short , welding helmet reviews as well.
[easyazon_link identifier="B0085T1LDS" locale="US" tag="mystore200d-20″][/easyazon_link]
It is because of this grievous harm that can befall upon you when welding, it is vital to always use a welding helmet that is UV resistant. This entire guide has information about finding the best welding helmet: why you need one, the different kinds, what you should be looking for when shopping for one and the five that I think are the best on the market. We have also given 5 short welding helmet reviews towards the end of the article.
[easyazon_link identifier="B0085T1LDS" locale="US" tag="mystore200d-20″]>>If you're in a hurry click here to find out our favorite Welding Helmet<<[/easyazon_link]
Why You Should Use a Welding Helmet
Before we begin with why you should wear a welding helmet, we shall first lay out the basic information as to what a welding helmet is and its origins. A welding helmet is a piece of headgear that protects the welder while he/she is welding. Particularly, it comes in handy during arc welding, since you can severely damage your eyes with an arc because of the intense ultraviolet and gamma rays. The very first welding helmet was invented in 1905 by Frederick M, Bowers, the founder of Fibre metal. Since its first inception, there have been many improvements on the design and materials used. You can now get a welding helmet with great features that provide the ultimate in protection.
The design of a welding helmet is like any other helmet. It goes over your head and has a viewing window that you can see out of. A welding helmet should always be worn while operating a welder because it is designed to not only shield the eyes but also averts harm to the face, neck and other exposed parts of skin that is close to that area. This is simply the basic and most prominent purpose of a welding helmet.
The construction of welding helmets varies from company to company and model to model. Some are made out of metal, while other are created from plastic or fiberglass. There are a number of materials that are used to make the viewing window pane of a helmet and can include tinted glass, tinted plastic or different filter made polarized lenses. No matter what material the window pain is made out of, its purpose is the shield the welder.
For your own safety, it's better to get a well-made helmet that cost's more. You could get a cheap helmet, but it will not be very comfortable and it will not provide the best protection, particularly if the materials it is made from are subpar or the craftsmanship is lacking. There are a few injuries that can arise from using a welding helmet that is lacking in quality. One of which occurs when the helmet is too heavy and causes neck strain or fatigue that can turninto lasting injuries. Also, if there is a lack of adequate sensors or shade then your eyes can become damaged along with your eyesight. If your viewing window pane does not sufficiently counteract the blinding brilliance of your torch you will experience a limited view of what you are working on. This can be very dangerous for you physically and it is also not good for your work.

[table id=7 /]
After reading all of that information, I'm sure that you realize the importance of getting the best welding helmet for you. Now finding the best helmet for you doesn't just mean go to the store and pick up the most expensive one they carry. What you really need to consider is what kind of welding will you most often be performing while wearing your helmet? What kind of features do you like the best? How long will you be wearing your welding helmet at one time? And lastly, how much do you have to spend on a welding helmet? All of these questions are important to answer BEFORE you buy a helmet. While all helmets are designed to protect you while welding, not all helmets have the same features.
Varieties of Welding Helmets
The major difference between helmets is the lens and the protection that you get from the helmet. I think I should first delve into what a shade number is and how it is graded. The number of a lens shade implies the amount of protection that it provides. In general, the higher the number of the lens shade, the more protection it provides. A quality welding helmet lens will have a screen filter that screens 100 percent of harmful ultraviolet and infrared rays. The shade number is also how dark the lens is while welding, you should pick the shade that provides you with the ultimate in visibility and protection.
There are several types of welding helmets. They are standard or passive helmets, auto-darkening helmets, professional or intermediate, fixed lens shade, battery and solar powered. Here is some more information about all of these particular kinds of helmets:
Standard or Passive Helmets
These helmets are popular with seasoned welders, but can be difficult for people who aren't that experienced as it can be difficult to perform certain tasks. They are created from precast plastics and have viewing or filter lenses that have ultraviolet and infrared glazes. Passive and standard helmets are cost-effective and durable but they have some downfalls. It is often difficult for a beginner or part-time hobbyist to position the electrode after snapping. This difficulty can result in unnecessary grinding or imperfections, the inability to stay locked into place, unproductive tack welding or a number of short welding tasks caused by frequent lifting of the helmet.
Auto-darkening Helmets
These helmets are great for those of you who are beginning or the occasional welders. They are light reactive which means that they get darker when the torch is lit. A nice feature of these auto-darkening helmets is that you are still protected even before the helmet darkens. They are designed to help maintain accurate torch position and maneuverability which reduces the possibility of neck discomfort and poor performance when tact welding. Auto-darkening helmets typically come with adjustable electronic filters and some light sensors that are placed close to the lens. These light sensors can darken the lens according to the brightness of the welding arc which makes certain that the lens is not too dark to see clearly. Both of those features help to ensure that you have an easy welding experience. There are a couple of variations to auto-darkening helmets: professional or intermediate, battery and solar powered.
Professional and Intermediate
This is a certain level of auto-darkening helmet that usually has adjustment controls. These controls are useful when you are welding with an arc that isn't as bright or that does not use as many amps as other types of arcs. It is great to have a helmet that you can adjust when it becomes too dark for you to see.
Battery and Solar Powered
These kinds of helmets are distinguished because they have a solar panel and a rechargeable lithium battery. It does need to be charged before you can use it, which isn't great for those of you who are itchy to start welding ASAP. A good thing about this model is that if the battery drains, the solar panel will continue to power the helmet.
Fixed or Variable Lens Shades
A fixed shade helmet will be an okay pick for you if you only use the same weld process on the same material every time you weld. That is because the shade doesn't change and therefore is only suitable for use during the process with which it is intended. However, since most people don't just work with one type of metal or even the same welding process every time, a variable lens shade is probably a better choice. A variable lens shade adjusts the darkness according to the brightness of the surroundings which ensures adequate coverage no matter what job you are doing.
Welding Helmet Specifications
All welding helmets provide protection from UV and infrared rays that occur during the welding process. However, they are not all the same and feature many different specifications that cater to dissimilar tastes. Here is a list and some information about the diverse features of welding helmets.
Switching Time
You are going to want a helmet that has a fast switching speed because it will provide the most protection from the harmful UV and infrared rays that are emitted from the arc. The switching speed is the time that a helmet takes to go from its state in natural light to the state of darkened shade when the torch is lit. The faster that the helmet switches, the better it is for your eyes. Entry-level lenses typically darken in around 1/3600 of a second while the intermediate and professional level lenses can darken in as little as 1/16000 of a second. It's worth noting that the faster the switching speed of a helmet, the more expensive the helmet will be. You just have to decide if you are willing and able to pay more for a safer helmet.
Viewing Size
Another important consideration when picking out a welding helmet is what size viewing area you would want. The standard viewing window size is five square inches but they can get up to eight or ten square inches. It's all a matter of personal preference, whether you like a bigger viewing area or not. A smaller viewing area may work for a part time welder and many industrial workers use the helmets with bigger viewing area.
Quantity of Sensors
Four is the ideal number of sensors to have on a welder. Unlike the helmets that just have two, the four sensor helmet is less likely to have a blind spot where a sensor doesn't pick up. You want to have immediate protection whenever there is a spark or flame. The worker who does a lot of out of position work or fabrication would get the most benefit from the four sensors. There are many helmets that have only two sensors, but you will not get as much exposure.
Heaviness of the Helmet
You are going to want to get a helmet that isn't very heavy. The heavier the helmet the more pressure and strain that is on your neck which causes fatigue and discomfort. About ten pounds is the weight limit of any helmet you should buy. If you can get down to one pound, you'd be better off if you have to wear a helmet throughout the day.
Modifiable Sensitivity and Delay Controls
Not all helmets come with these controls, only the professional and intermediate helmets. They can come in handy when working on tack weld. The sensitivity control adjusts the view depending on how much ambient light is present and the intensity of the welding arc. That feature is important because by it provides a much better view of your work. The delay control governs how long the helmet will stay dark after the arc has stopped. A lengthier delay time can be good when you are working with high amperage welding because it protects your eyes from looking at the weld area after the arc is shut off.
National Safety Standards
You are getting a welding helmet to protect yourself, so it's kind of defeating the purpose if you get one that isn't up to code with the latest safety standards. ANSI Z87.1 – 2003 is the newest safety standard to come out. It mandates that auto-darkening lens manufacturersconfirm their claimedspecs like dark shade settings and switching times with laboratory tests. This mandate ensures that the helmets do perform as stated.
The tests done in laboratories on the welding helmets are incredibly rigorous and check a variety of things like if a helmet can withstand a high velocity impact, the protection level from infrared and UV rays by shade and the performance of the helmet as well as the features under extreme conditions such as cold and heat.
Fitting Ability
You should really look for a welding helmet with a good fit. Not only will a well-fitting helmet give you more protection, but it will also give you more comfort. If your helmet fits correctly, you will not have any exposed skin that is in danger of absorbing UV or infrared radiation. It will also protect you from getting hot molten spatter on your skin, saving you from horrific burns. If you have noticed that your helmet could fit better, you would get a welding big that attaches to the helmet and provides extra protection.

Jameis Winston's Father Says He "Dropped The Ball" In Preparing The Florida State Quarterback For The Spotlight
Speaking to USA Today roughly two weeks after his son, Jameis, was cited for shoplifting at Publix, a Tallahassee grocery store, Antonor Winston admitted he and Florida State could have done a better job preparing the quarterback for the spotlight.
An inside look at Jameis Winston's off-field trouble from @RachelAxon and possible #NFL scrutiny. http://t.co/Dqb5ASSudU via @usatoday
— Lorenzo Reyes (@Lorenzo_G_Reyes) May 11, 2014
Jameis Winston, the 2013 Heisman winner who helped lead Florida State to a national championship last January, stole $32 worth of crab legs and crawfish on April 29. He was cited and not allowed to return to the Seminoles' baseball team prior to completing 20 hours of community service.
Following the four-day suspension, Jameis Winston sent a text message to his father:
"I know what doesn't kill you makes you stronger actually being suspended was the best days of my life!
"When I get older we gone laugh at this petty stuff IM GOOD that's all that matters ignore minor comments or people that ain't livin MY life"
Antonor Winston said himself and the university should now be more aware of the issues that surround Jameis Winston.
"We hope so," Antonor Winston said. "Not only him. I think it should show the university and us, I think we probably kind of dropped the ball on that a little bit."
Florida State is working on figuring out how to monitor its star athlete.
"He's supposed to have somebody around him 24/7," says Antonor Winston. "He a Heisman Trophy winner so (he's) definitely not supposed to be by (himself)."
Antonor Winston went as far to compare his son's situation to that of former Heisman winners Johnny Manziel and Tim Tebow.
"It's just a different standard for (Jameis) and Johnny (Manziel)," says Antonor Winston. "He's just got to endure, just make better decisions and he's just got to endure that."

Member of Parliament for The Cotswolds – Geoffrey Clifton-Brown – today called on the Chancellor of the Exchequer – Rt Hon. Philip Hammond MP – to adopt changes to the business rates system, which was highlighted by the following exchange in the House of Commons:
Geoffrey Clifton-Brown (The Cotswolds) (Con)
'In Stow-on-the-Wold in my constituency, the actual business rates payable by Tesco, which is five minutes' walk from the centre, is £220 per square metre, whereas a delicatessen in the centre of the town will pay £500 per square metre. Does not my right hon. Friend think that the system of rating valuation needs to be re-examined?'
'The rating system is what it is; it reflects the rental value of properties. I readily acknowledge that in an economy that is changing shape rapidly, where the digital economy plays a much larger role and where some of the biggest businesses are not based on bricks and mortar, there are some very significant challenges for us, which we need to look at. In the short and medium term, business rates play a vital role in providing revenue to the Exchequer—and from 2020, of course, they will be used wholly to support local authorities.'
Small businesses in the Cotswolds, which provide the lifeblood and identity for towns and villages across the constituency, will struggle to remain solvent if punitive business rates continue to be applied. This is especially unfair when coupled with large national businesses – such as supermarkets – benefitting from reduced rates as a result of their questionable 'out-of-town' status.
Commenting on the revaluation Mr Clifton-Brown said:
'Small business owners are constantly trying to maintain profitability while remaining price competitive.

Directions: Cut a set of heart-shaped wings out of a plastic jug. Hold the wings in place on top of a plastic cap - I used milk carton caps. Use push-pins to make two holes through both. Fold an 18-inch length of floral wire in half and thread the ends through the holes. Then twist the wires to secure them into place. For the eyes, use a hole puch to make black craft-foam pupils, and use scissors to cut larger circles from white craft foam. Attach the yeas to the cap with a 4-inch lengh of floral wire just like before.
Materials Needed: milk carton caps, plastic jug, floral wire, push pin, black and white craft foam, hole punch, scissors

Victoria's Secret announced on Wednesday that Jasmine Tookes will model this year's Fantasy Bra at its annual fashion show. Accessories designer Eddie Borgo designed the $4 million bra, officially called the 2016 Bright Night Fantasy Bra because it will be featured in the "Bright Night" section of the show.
There's a lot of data associated with the bra: It took over 700 hours to make. It has over 9,000 precious gemstones, including diamonds and emeralds, overlaid on a custom Beautiful by Victoria's Secret bra. It weighs more than 450 carats total.
Borgo worked with jewels from AWMouzannar, and was especially taken with the emeralds. "The color of a true emerald is inimitable," he told Vogue US. It just so happens that Jasmine also loves emeralds, and thinks it would fit right in with her personal jewelry collection.
Jasmine only just got her Angel status last year, so getting to wear the Fantasy Bra is a pretty huge deal (in the VS model universe, which, granted, is a very specific realm). She's pretty freaked out about the whole thing.
"I am so scared to even walk the show," she told People, "I am scared I am gonna just cry down the runway."
Here's a look at some of the models who've worn the Fantasy Bra in the past:

While party leaders Julia Gillard and Tony Abbott slug it out over policy detail in orderly press conferences, campaign staff have come to blows on the streets of some of the most marginal seats in the country.
Since the Australian campaign began almost five weeks ago there have been at least four alleged incidents of assault involving candidates or their team members. Complaints over attacks and intimidation have become so numerous that Ms Gillard and Mr Abbott have intervened, calling for both sides to "behave".
With just three days to go until the election on Aug 21, the most recent polls have put the Labour government on 51 per cent to the Liberal-National Coalition's 48 per cent, a narrow margin in a campaign that has often placed the rivals neck-and-neck.
As the race has tightened, the fists have been flying in Queensland, where the government is trying to hang on to 17 marginal seats.
In one case of election-related violence, a Liberal-National Party volunteer lashed out at a Labour campaign staffer who had been following Wyatt Roy, a 20-year-old Coalition candidate, dressed as a large L-plate bearing the words "Don't risk him". The Liberals blamed Labour for starting the fight by sending a "shock squad" to disrupt Mr Roy's campaigning.
In the marginal seat of Dawson on the Queensland coast, Labour candidate Mike Brunker has been accused of getting into a punch-up with Cyril Vains, the elderly president of a local racing club. Mr Vains suffered cuts and bruises after allegedly being hit by Mr Brunker during an argument over the disappearance of campaign signs, but the politician has claimed that he was acting in self defence.
John Warhurst, a political analyst at the Australian National University, said that incidents of violence on the campaign trail were high because the race was so tight.
"People do get angry when their advertising materials are torn down or there's an argument between rival parties over who gets the best spot outside a supermarket," he said.
"It is competitive and tempers do get frayed when you're tired and fighting a difficult election."

Calcutta: The Indian Cricket League (ICL) is set to strike at the heart of Bengal cricket.
Having already signed players from several states, the Zee-promoted league has finalised deals with at least six current Bengal players. They are expected to sign the contracts in Mumbai on Monday.
The players in question are captain and former Test player Deep Dasgupta, former international Laxmi Ratan Shukla, middle-order batsman Subhamoy Das, left-arm spinner Shiv Sagar Singh, pacer Eklakh Ahmed and promising wicketkeeper Subhajit Pal.
The three-year contract, reportedly worth Rs 80 lakh, assures a player around Rs 26.5 lakh a year even if he doesnt play a match.
Deep, it has been learnt, has got a better deal. The grapevine has it that Rohan Gavaskar has been sounded out as well.
Avishek Jhunjhunwala, who was among the probables for the ICC World Twenty20, has also been approached. I am confused
I will decide in a couple of days, Avishek said.
Shib Shankar Paul and Sourashish Lahiri have turned down ICL offers.
[ICL will reveal the names of the players in Mumbai Monday, says a PTI report. It is learnt that Dinesh Mongia, J. P. Yadav, Amol Muzumdar, Nilesh Kulkarni, Aakash Chopra, Amit Bhandari, Vijay Dahiya, S. Sriram, Sanjay Bangar, Shalabh Srivastava, Ali Murtaza and Avinash Yadav are likely to join.]
Deep and Shukla have already informed CAB president Prasun Mukherjee about their decision. Deep was approached more than a month back when he had sought a few clarifications.
With no response from the ICL representatives, Deep started to believe the deal was off. But when they got back a few days back, he couldnt reject the offer.
A few clauses still need to be discussed
Hopefully it will be sorted out in Mumbai tomorrow (Monday), Deep said.
The fate of the players who have signed for the ICL will be decided at the BCCI meetings in Mumbai on Tuesday.
Ive got nothing against the CAB. What I am today is all because of my association. But Im peeved at being constantly overlooked by the national selectors. I am 26 and Ranjib Biswal has already termed me an oldie
I want to perform and prove something. Thats the reason for joining the ICL, explained allrounder Shukla.

Timothy Anderson was given a 2017 MERIT award to aid his study of malaria drug resistance.
By Brittney Martin, San Antonio Express-News
A scientist at the Texas Biomedical Research Institute in San Antonio has received a five-year, $4.6 million grant to study how and why malaria parasites stop responding to drug treatments.
Timothy Anderson studies the genetic makeup of malaria parasites to determine what makes them resistant to treatment and how quickly resistance can spread. The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases presented Anderson with a Method to Extend Research in Time (MERIT) Award to support his research over the next five years.
Malaria is a parasite transmitted by mosquitoes. About 214 million cases were reported in 2015, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, leading to 438,000 deaths.
According to the World Health Organization, the best treatment for the most deadly type of malaria parasite is an antimalarial drug called artemisinin, used in combination with other antimalarials. Scientists detected the first resistance to artemisinin in 2009.
Anderson's lab in San Antonio is working to determine how, why and where the resistance has spread and will spread.
"Resistance is sort of a universal problem in treatment of any infectious disease," Anderson said. "What we're trying to do is to get people to think about more evolution-proof approaches to treatment."
Anderson said the artemisinin resistance is currently contained to Southeast Asia, but the fear is that it will spread to Africa, where 92 percent of malaria-related deaths occurred in 2015, according to the World Health Organization.
With the award money, Anderson said his lab can try "adventurous" new research approaches, involving growing malaria parasites in the lab and manipulating the genome to better understand the resistance.
"The idea is not to wait for resistance to occur, but to try to treat with drug regimens that will be resistant to resistance development in the first place," Anderson said. "And to do that we really need to know some fundamental aspects about how resistance mutations arise within populations and how many times they arise."
Anderson said his research should lead directly to public health strategies.
U.S. Rep. Will Hurd, whose district includes San Antonio, congratulated Anderson and praised his research in a statement.
"His work not only contributes to the multi-billion dollar bio-science industry that employs thousands in San Antonio, but it brings us one step closer to curing infectious diseases and saving lives around the globe," Hurd said.
MERIT Award winners are nominated by program staff of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. About 15 awards are issued by the institute each year.

In the latest in our diet-myth busting blog series, we find out if drinking herbal teas can really contribute to weight loss.
There are a number of ads out there advertising herbal teas as an ideal slimming solution. But the truth is, there's no evidence to support the claims that drinking particular types of tea can speed up your metabolism or help you to lose any appreciable amounts of weight.
As Dr Kelly Johnston, LighterLife's Head of Nutrition and Research explains: 'The idea that drinking herbal tea can somehow significantly enhance weight loss or speed up your metabolism to any major degree is not founded from any properly designed, randomized controlled trial scientific studies.
'It is true, that some metabolic effects of varying different kinds of tea have been observed in humans, but how this translates in longer-term healthy is not known. In addition, a lot of the data which is referenced in these circumstances shows very small effects in humans or is derived from cell-culture systems using doses we would find impossible and unpleasant to consume.
'Thus the 'fat-burning' effects of these are very much overstated and the evidence simply isn't there. By not eating that extra biscuit, or by eating an ever so slightly smaller portion of breakfast cereal you will reduce your calorie intake by the same amount as these teas are reported to burn.'
'If you tend to drink a lot of calorie-laden drinks, then swapping them for tea (without added sugar) means that you may consume considerably fewer calories per day, which in itself could result in a small amount of weight loss. But this is more of an issue of energy balance rather than from any "magical" effects of tea. If you replace those same calorie-laden drinks with water, you may also lose weight too.'
If you're thinking of losing weight, then ditch the tea diet and consider joining LighterLife instead. LighterLife has a range of weight loss plans available and offers weekly group support to help keep you on track. Find out more here.

Ice Cream Cake Cones
Serving Size:
20 small cones
- 1 packet cake mix
- Extra ingredients for cake according to packet (eggs, milk, butter)
- 18-20 flat-bottom small ice cream cones
- M&Ms and sprinkles to decorate
- Icing
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk
- Yellow and red food coloring
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Place cones in muffin pan holes – this works a treat for catching any overflow during baking.
Prepare cake mix according to directions and fill each cone 2/3 full (amount varies depending on how big cones are).
Bake for 20 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the cake comes out clean.
Cool on a wire rack.
To prepare icing, cream butter until pale and smooth.
Add the milk and half the sifted powdered sugar.
Beat until well combined.
Add the remaining powdered sugar and beat until mixture is light and fluffy.
The mixture should be a spreadable paste; if it is too dry add some more milk, if too wet add more powdered sugar.
Divide icing between two small bowls.
Use 2 drops yellow food coloring in one bowl and 2 drops red food coloring in the other bowl.
Stir well to ensure an even color.
When cakes are cold, trim away any overflow.
Spread with icing and decorate with M&Ms and sprinkles.
This is the bit the kids love – decorating and polishing off any leftovers!
Keep in airtight container for 2-3 days, the cones go a bit soft after a day, but the kids don't seem to mind.

Make no mistake, the Holocaust was not a masterpiece of the notorious Hitler alone. Anti-Semitism is a global phenomenon. How come Jews were hated by the whole world to such an extent that no one care about their life anymore? Historian Paul Johnson traced the history of Jews all the way to Bible till now.
I just read the last 2 chapters, which started with the World War II and the establishment of Israel. Though the author seems to have a more sympathetic view towards Jews, it didn't tarnish the elegantly-put arguments.
Bought the book in Krakow, Poland, at which the largest concentration camps in WWII located. You can't help to ponder on the whole tragedy....Continua

Island Races - Mersea Mile - Open Water Swim
09 Jul 17
Island Races is held on Mersea Island. The Island is situated on the Blackwater Estuary on the East Coast of England in Essex, approximately 8 miles from the nearest town Colchester and 60 miles from London. Mersea is a beautiful Island surrounded by stunning beaches, coastal paths, cliffs and marshland spoiled with wildlife. East Mersea boasts the Cudmore Grove Country Park that teems with wildlife, in particular migrating birds. It is also famous for its eroding cliffs that have been known to expose both bear and mammoth fossils. West Mersea is the bigger of the two villages and is also the hub of the sailing and fishing communities. There are creeks littered with moored yachts and fishing boats and the surrounding marshland is protected for its populations of birds and occasional seals.
Island Races Open Water Swim is a Mile long. This year we have a new route whereby competitors will start off the beach and swim/race around the back of Cobmarsh Island before finishing at the old hard slipway in the heart of the fishing and sailing community. Prize giving will be held after the last competitor exits the water either on the green or at the Coast Inn next door.
The chosen charity for this event is The RNLI. Please see our website www.islandraces.com for more information.

To NOT go storming around to 13 year old dd's friend's mum's house(123 Posts)
... bang on the door, and shout 'Why on earth did you give my dd diet pills? Are you insane woman?' Because a) she's MUCH bigger than me and b) she is insane?
background: dd has been friends with girl since they were 3. They were at nursery together. Have never communicated that well with mum or felt I know her well - her Mum's English isn't great (she's French Algerian), and her life is quite chaotic - six kids, one of whom is brain damaged from a fall from a window a few years ago. Mum has physical and mental health problems.
DD came home from their house last week with 12 diet tablets in a blister pack. God knows what they contain - googled them and found very little information. I think they're the ones which absorb fat from food. But could be more than that. Whatever, they've gone in the bin, and we had to endure an evening of screaming and shouting from dd, who is slightly overweight (allergic to exercise and fond of eating crap), who had been persuaded by the friend's mum that these tablets could be the answer to her problems.
I mean really - it's bonkers isn't it? But I'm afraid of this girl's mum as she's a bit unstable and VERY outspoken. I was once witness to her screaming at another mother in the street over something to do with comments which had passed between their daughters. So I won't be saying anything to her. Just binning the tablets and telling dd she's NEVER to take anything without our say so, and that diet pills don't work.
no phone,no money,no internet no anything until her behaviour improves.the problem with punishments is they need to be followed through and some parents prefer to try and be bezzie mates rather than parents...
Mary - great advice about the pharmacist. I'm going to do it tomorrow!
"You sound as though you have no say in what your dd eats, where she goes, who she sees and her life generally."
No - when she's out the house on her way to and from school, and when she goes out I don't have ANY control over what she does. Short of putting a lock on the fridge, what do you suggest I do to stop her eating between meals at home?
"And worst than that you sound as if you have given up trying"
I try to stop dd being violent to her siblings, try to get her up and off to school on time in the mornings, make sure she does her homework, and that I know where she is if she's out the house. I try to get her to do some chores at home, and go to bed at a reasonable time. I challenge her every time she uses bad language or is disrespectful to me or her father.
So you see, I pick my battles. If you have a very difficult child you HAVE to, or you'd go mad and end up destroying your family.
Doinmummy I know some teenagers are nice, some are hideous and some are beyond vile.
So what do you do? Roll over and accept it or dig your heels in and do something about it?
You (the parent) holds (or should) the power and the purse strings. I do not for one second, think it's easy or straightforward. It's painful, it's hard and it's very worrying.
But you can't just do nothing whilst they walk all over you.
And whilst my DCs weren't especially vile, it wasn't a walk in the park either.
Do you have perfect children then, amothersruin?
I'm totally with you Shag.
Should add, that punishments DON'T always work as a deterrent to bad behavior. Even severe punishments. NannyOgg, you clearly think that if you u punish enough you can change a child's behaviour and attitude. It doesn't work like that for everyone.
If it did did prisons would be empty.
why is she behaving like thos though shag? something is making her like this. where did she learn that it is ok to shout or swear at adults? i went off the rails a bit at 16 but that was due to issues surrounding my mum and sd.what has happened to your dd? please seek further help for her.sounds like she is crying out for it.
the no phone never works imo I tried with my dd and we are not bezzie mates <rolls eyes> I am not my childs friend you have to pick battles sometimes although rolling over and letting them take the piss isnt the answer either, teenagers have no reasoning sometimes their brains can not process adult reasoning they are like another species sometimes,
Shag - just wanted to give you a <hug>
if prisons were run.the way they should be then they would be a real deterrent but thats by the by. by being firm with your dd now she may shout she hates you but will thank you for it later.
"But you can't just do nothing whilst they walk all over you".
You don't do 'nothing'. You model good behavior. You pick them up each and every time they breach your rules. You use sanctions. You apply them consistently.
We have done all of these things.
YANBU on either count. How dare she give diet pills to a child - is she mad?
Well, yes, clearly.
And I find it is generally a good idea to steer clear of large, angry unstable people. I'm all for an easy, confrontation and violence-free life.
But I would be fuming.
Although if they were Xenical (sp?) the ones which turn all the fat you eat to a vile smelly orange liquid that seeps out of your bum then perhaps you should have let DD try them. It might have put her off.
DDs weight is a side issue.
An adult gave a child drugs. That is the issue.
Fags and speed make you lose weight too. If an adult gave a child these it would be illegal.
Dig them out of the bin, take them to the pharmacist and find out what the hell they are. Then formulate a plan depending on the drugs involving the school, SS or the police.
I'm trying to think of how I'd react if an adult gave my child drugs. Dangerously is the only answer I have so far.
"if prisons were run.the way they should be then they would be a real deterrent but thats by the by"
What - like in the States? Where people are kept in tiny bare cells in solitary confinement for decades, and only allowed to see the sun for an hour a day?
In countries where they have the death penalty?
You nob.
then you didnt take the phone away for.long enough did you? i dont know anu.teen who.isnt surgically.attached to their phone and wouldnt greet at this sanction.
now i see why your dd thinks its acceptable to swear at adults.....
I have taken phone/ Internet etc away from DD. Result = she runs away. Police involved etc. sometimes you have to pick your battles.
Well shag for a woman who isn't keen on confronting the other mum you are well able to give it here
Errrrrr you're scared of the mum but your dd is still ok to go round there. Picking your battles seems to mean abdicating responsibility. An adult gave your dd drugs, call the bloody police women, god forbid you should protect her. What if it is an amphetamine based drug? What if she's had it before? Doesn't sound as if you're sure about much in your daughters life to be honest. Poor dd, whilst your busy being best mates, who is her mother?
yep.nob? wow what a keyboard warrior.i wss trying to give genuine advice as your dd sounds like she is crying out for help.good luck.
Dig them out of the bin, take them to the pharmacist and find out what the hell they are. Then formulate a plan depending on the drugs involving the school, SS or the police
I agree - and the designated safeguarding contact at the school would probably be interested in the information too.
Having had a quick look at some of the OP's other posts, she seems to have done everything in her power to address her daughter's difficulties. I think the criticism she's getting is unfair.
Do you punish dd with food? If you don't have junk food in your house she still finds ways to eat it which shows she has an unhealthy relationship with food. Do you think you may have contributed to that? I
Fwiw, I went through a chubby stage aged 13-20. I would imagine its normal whilst growing up during puberty. Unless she's clinically obese for her age, I wouldn't worry about her weight and just ignore the weird pill giving mother.
I don't think she can ignore the pill giving mother's actions. If, for example, the pills are speed they are a controlled drug. Whatever they are she can't go around giving unidentified pills to minors. I think the best bet is to get medical advice first.
I think it's unfair to be so hard on the Op. I am speaking from very bitter experience. Some teens are very very difficult. Oh that it were that easy to dish out discipline and hey presto, perfect kids.
to be honest if it was me I'd be raising welfare concerns for the woman's DC!! sounds harsh but if she saw right to give your did diet pills at 13 can you imagine what she could be like with her own children!? that could very detrimental to there own insecurities about weight as they get older let's face it I bet the majority of girls have wanted to loose weight pre-1. I also speak from experience on this one my my, was anorexic when I was a toddler and I have grown up with am awful view of food. I'm not by no means skinny but my eating habits are awful, just like my mums. I think I'm like that because I witnessed her anorexia. if those DC see there mum dishing diet pills out or even taking them they will think its right and may be taking them younger than your did I would seriously consider flagging this up with someone perhaps gp

Kim Kardashian, Shia LaBeouf, Chord Overstreet and Jennifer Aniston have serious H'wood celeb status in common, duh, but that ain't all, folks.
Sorry, there are no cougar-cub hookups to report yet, but this group has joined up for Pollapalooza time!
We asked you if you thought Kim was way kute, if Shi was too chatty, what Ryan Murphy's deal was and whether you could embrace a naughty Jen. So what did you Truthers have to say about our plethora of polls?
Klassy Kim for Her Big Day: Forget being fashion forward, you all want Kim to go way tradish. We thought you'd want the Kardashian girl to show off her famous asset in something sleek and sexy and...curvy, but nuh-uh. Elegant and subtle, like fashion icon and princess Kate Middleton, is the way to you all think K.K. should go.
But don't be a fashion slave to that other K, Kimmy! Unlike Kate's big day, you thought Kim's hair should be up and out of the way to show off that smoldering bone structure of hers. But either way, mama Kris will think Kim looks smokin' either way. Bring on the tears and cameras, babe.
Shia's Not Shy Enough: After Shia "slipped" about his sexcapades with Megan Fox, we decided to address his little habit of extreme honesty. No surprise, about half of you thought Shia's super-common slips were way rude. We're sure Meg doesn't appreciate it too much either, though we don't mind one bit!
That's why we were happily surprised at the rather large minority who praised Shi's chatty Kathy ways. Says one LaBeouf fan: "His honesty is freaking awesome. There is no bulls--t with this guy since day one when he showed up on Jimmy Kimmel in a hoodie and shorts."
From the perspective of someone who's always tailin' those sneaky celebs, totally agree.
Mysterious Murphy Cuts the Chord: We contemplated numerous reasons for axing adorbs Chord Overstreet off Glee, but you weren't feelin' any of them really. Instead, you cried confused and blamed creator Ryan Murphy's random ways. But why o' why, Mr. Murphy?
Well, don't worry your little hearts quite yet Gleeks 'cause there's still a question mark on whether Chord's even leaving the show. It may be only a minor role, but here's hoping the cutie pie keeps singing on with New Directions.
The Good Girl's Better Bad: You bad boys and girls. It's pretty obvious Jen Aniston, the rom-com queen, is much hotter to you when she gets down 'n' dirty, which is why we pinky swear that you'll majorly appreciate her deliciously disobedient Horrible Bosses character.
Makes sense Jen is mixing it up onscreen 'cause naughty and nice is more like how the girl rolls in real life. And while her angelic demeanor fools some, we're sure Justin Theroux appreciates her naughty side. Roar.

Vedic Meditation
Vedic Meditation is derived from the Veda, the 5,000 year old body of wisdom and source of yoga and Ayurvedic medicine.
During meditation, one experiences inner wakefulness beyond thought. Meditators describe this state as supreme inner contentment. The restfulness accompanying meditation is considerably deeper than that gained by sleeping. This profound rest allows deep-rooted stresses to dissolve naturally, bringing innumerable health benefits to the individual.
The integration of bliss consciousness and deeper levels of rest with one's dynamic daily activity allows the meditator to becomes less stressed, more creative, more productive, and more adaptable to the demands of life.
The course in Vedic Meditation consists of four consecutive classes. For best results you should attend all four classes.

Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Threats to Xerath with this build
|Twisted Fate
|Twited fate is very squishy and have no damage at early so kill him. When he choose his gold card run and when he use it, come back.
|Stunt her when she is using ultimate (she will be mad xD ) after it, use combo (E, W, A or E,A,W) and kill her.
Xerath is a champion that requiere to always care about your positioning, because with your insane range its easy to loose view of your champion in a messy teamfight. But if you are too much near of the teamfight you will be focused and you range will be useless. In teamfights its key to burst down the enemy ad or apc! But the higher elos you get the harder this will be because they will position themselvs better so if you dont see the oppertunity to burst their carry down try to nuke the WHOLE enemy team and do as much burst as you can on as many people as you can ! After the first few seconds of a teamfights everybody on the enemy team should be around half to a quater hp try to chase them down ( but stay in range of your ulti of course !) and kill them with your ultimate. Theres nothing more to say gl hf on the fields of justice !
Pros / Cons
Xerath takes advantage many of the new system of calculation of magic penetration
He has a powerfull burst and can one shot a squishy man
He has a stunt to help for a gank or for flee
He can push very fast
Dependent on skillshots
Can't kill a tanks :/ (but can stunt it)
This new passive give you mana each time you make a basic attack. It give you more mana if you make a basic attack on a champion than on a creep.
Q spell :
This is the main spell of Xerath. Try to use it on the most ennemies. You can also one shot a wave of minions when they are in align like these cats:
The Q spell range is a little bit more large than what is display, train with it and you will see...
It look like this in game:
W spell :
This spell is very usefull, it can slow yours ennemies so you can just use the W spell followed by the Q spell to deal a lot of damages.
It look like this in game:
E spell:
This spell can stunt, it's very usefull ! It add a little burst too but it's not the most important.
It look like this in game:
Ultimate (R spell):
The ultimate have on of the greatest range of the game and it deal a lot of damages.
The range is more large each level of the spell.
Range: 3200 / 4400 / 5600
Cost: 100 mana
Cooldown: 130 / 115 / 100 secondes
Damages per charge: 190 / 245 / 300 (+43% of your ap)
It give you magic resist against other midlaners because the majority are ap. It give you magic penetration because Xerath is AP x) and health to don't die when you are ganked. And ofc it give you ap.
This masteries give you more health and increase your magic resistance and your armor. It also give you a lot of ap and more damages. Personally I prefer place some points on the Defense tree than on the Utility tree (I test both)
This is my personal build. I take an doran's ring because it give you mana live and ap, best starter. You can also take the Crystalline Flask to get more sustain. Always pick the warding trinket.
I pick the Athene's Unholy Grail because too many good stats to pass up but against full ad comps a bit weaker, go morellos instead if you want. morellos give u more ap but no ap resist.
Skill Sequence
Up: R>Q>W>E
The Q is the main spell of course. The w add burst and the e help you to cast the combo.
If u are the best caster ever, up R>W>Q>E. The W deal more damages if your ennemie is on the center (the damages are +91% of your AP if you cast in the center of the spell)
