Unanswered: (Newbie Question) Extracting Information from Comma Delimited File
I need to extra information from a comma delimited file and/or group of files on a fairly regular basis. I don't have the data streams in front of me, and won't until the middle of next week.
I'm just wondering if it's possible to do this - I'm very new to anything with databases. We have the opportunity to use one hosted on our webserver, and I would like to integrate that with a voiceboard that we use for tax return status. The voiceboard updates from the comma delimited file mentioned above, 'update.fil'. Is it possible to grab the information so that a query could be run? IE a social security number is entered and we can get a 'Yes' or 'No' on return status given to us?
Email me or respond please, it's appreciated. firstname.lastname@example.com

Well, when I got to work today, I noticed the day lillies are peaking through the ground. Also our first massive thistle that we just can't get rid of, no matter what. The massive trumpet vine that has taken over the fence behind us is still dead as a doornail. It is a pain, but it does offer a nice privacy screen for us and the funeral home behind us. Our lilacs aren't showing any signs of life either. Noticed a few tulip buds... always a good sign. One good thing about working in an old home... we get to treat it as such, and have flowers. :) The office manager and I are thinking about sneaking a few sunflower seeds in the front this year... :)
Daylillies are peakin through!
Yeah, I was down at our house in Atlanta last week and saw that most of our perennial plants are starting to poke up. I dug up some of them to bring to our farm in TN. :)
Are day-lilies difficult? I noticed people talking about them on the Internet so thought I'd have a go too. I've ordered half a dozen mail-order. They should be coming as young plants. I'm very keen on bulbs. Any tips?
I don't think we've done anything with our for the 4 years I've been working here... I imagine they need divided by now... other than that, they are majorly maintenance free.
Thanks Nepthys. You have a very unusual name if you don't mind my saying so. I've never come across it before. Is it American?
my daylillies are poking up too. and my columbine and sedum have new growth.
I can't wait till spring..........
Northerner... actually, Nephthys (I cut out one "h" because I couldn't even spell it that way) is an Egyptian goddess. "Mistress of the House". Egyptian goddess of the dead. Daughter of Geb and Nut. Sister of Isis, Osiris and Seth. According to one tradition, she was also the mother of Anubis by Osiris. Her principal sanctuary was at Heliopolis. Along with Isis, she was one of the guardians of the corpse of Osiris. Depicted in human form wearing a crown in the form of the hieroglyph for house. Sometimes depicted as a kite guarding funeral bier of Osiris.
I've studied egyptology for about 8 years... ever since I was 16 or so. Fascinating stuff, which, unfortunately, gets me pegged as a pagen. Oh well. :)
Hope that helps... and that closes today's egyptology lesson. :)
nepthys..zone 4..daylillies and tulips budding...I am amazed. here it is still ice and snow. e

Steve Voisey will be at Sacred Heart College in term 4. Senior students will be on study leave by then, so it's a perfect time to get your head into some digital tools as you start thinking about 2017.
Friday is all about data. In the morning, we'll be looking at opportunities offered by online assessment and the implications for teaching and learning. The focus changes to the community (families, businesses, staff, students, interest groups) in the afternoon. Both of these courses are platform agnostic – it makes no difference whether you're on Google, Office 365 or neither.
Monday morning is also platform agnostic, and it's intended for teachers who are just starting their elearning journey. We dive into Google Classroom in the afternoon.

Florida certainly has its reputation for general nuttiness, and sometimes it goes beyond the prototypical "Florida Man" to the "Florida Judge." Last week, Florida judge Mark Mahon decided that because he personally couldn't take a little criticism from protestors outside the courtroom, he could unilaterally suspend the First Amendment of the Constitution, leading him to issue a hilarious order barring people from demonstrating anywhere near the courthouse if those demonstrations included mocking judges:
Demonstrations or dissemination of materials that degrade or call into question the integrity of the Court or any of its judges (e.g., claiming the Courts, Court personnel or judges are "corrupt," biased, dishonest, partial, or prejudiced), thereby tending to influence individuals appearing before the Courts, including jurors, witnesses, and litigants, shall be prohibited on the Duval County Courthouse grounds….
The order further stated that anyone exercising such a First Amendment right could be "found in criminal contempt of Court." Considering that he's already stomping on the First Amendment, perhaps it's no surprise that he falls back on the misleading-to-wrong anti-free speech trope of "yelling fire in a crowded theater."
[T]he proper procedure for challenging a court's decision is to file an appeal with the appropriate appellate court. Shouting out on the Courthouse grounds that the Court and judges are "corrupt" during business hours while people are entering the Courthouse is entirely inappropriate and disruptive and is analogous to falsely shouting "fire" in a crowded theater….
Eugene Volokh quickly pointed out how ridiculous this order is and Popehat followed up as well:
This is flatly unconstitutional. Demonstrations and leafleting are protected speech under the First Amendment. So, for that matter, is flag-burning and walking around on stilts as a giant puppet of Uncle Sam. Burning a giant photograph of Judge Mahon, a public figure and a judge no less, would be protected speech.
And sidewalks surrounding a courthouse are a public forum, the sort of place the founders envisioned protest, and flag-burning, and giant puppets, and burning giant photographs of Judge Mark Mahon. Indeed, the United States Supreme Court has held that its own adjoining sidewalks are a public forum where demonstrations, leafleting, and giant puppets are allowed.
The sidewalks comprising the outer boundaries of the Court grounds are indistinguishable from any other sidewalks in Washington, D.C., and we can discern no reason why they should be treated any differently. Sidewalks, of course, are among those areas of public property that traditionally have been held open to the public for expressive activities, and are clearly within those areas of public property that may be considered, generally without further inquiry, to be public forum property.
Demonstrations, signs, and leaflets outside public courthouses may be quite triggering for the sensitive souls who work there, but they have an alternative: GET A REAL JOB IN THE PRIVATE SECTOR. You can put black robes on a goon like Mark Mahon, but a goon he remains. He has no business enforcing the law, much less making up new law of his own goonish devising.
So who were these demonstrators that Judge Mahon was so upset about that it made him completely forget the very First Amendment to the Constitution? They were associated with the site Photography Is Not A Crime, better known as PINAC, and who we've written about/linked to many times for exposing ridiculous efforts to bully photographers/journalists/citizens exercising their rights to photograph and videotape in public (including the actions of public officials). Mahon was hearing a case involving a PINAC reporter who had been arrested concerning a demonstration against the TSA. Other PINAC folks were demonstrating outside of this case, leading to Mahon's order.
In response, PINAC has filed a lawsuit against Mahon in which they argue that Mahon's order violates their First Amendment rights and asks for a temporary restraining order against Mahon's order.
In response, Mahon quickly "scaled back" his original order, but didn't get rid of it completely.
Mahon wrote a new administrative order that "vacates and supersedes" the previous one. It continues the ban against photography of secure areas and security features, but he eliminated the ban against protests that question the court's integrity.
The new order is certainly better and appears to remove the reference to "fire in a crowded theater" along with the clearly unconstitutional ban on calling the integrity of the court into question. But it still seems pretty clearly targeted at protected activity that the judge doesn't like. He tries to present it as being all about safety, but that seems like a tortured attempt to ban a form of protest that he doesn't like. PINAC claims it will continue to fight the new order as well. One hopes, as part of this process, Judge Mahon familiarizes himself with the Constitution that he's supposed to be enforcing.

Brent crude edged up and U.S. crude pushed above $112 a barrel Thursday in volatile trading, getting a lift from the greenback's weakness.
Investors bought oil as a hedge against the slumping dollar, which fell for a third straight day, hitting its lowest since 2008 against a basket of currencies. The dollar index neared an all-time low.
Disappointing reports on factory activity and U.S. initial jobless claims cast doubt on the pace of U.S. economic recovery and energy demand growth, limiting oil's gains.
Brent crude for June rose 14 cents to settle at $123.99 a barrel, having earlier pushed up nearly $1 to $124.81, the highest since April 11.
U.S. crude for June rose 84 cents to settle at $112.29, bouncing off a session low of $111. U.S. crude posted a 2.4 per cent weekly gain.
U.S. gasoline futures ended at $3.3086 a gallon, the highest settlement since July 2008 as the summer driving season approaches. U.S. heating oil futures ended lower.
With gasoline prices already $4 a gallon in some states, the Obama administration unveiled a working group of federal agencies to probe potential fraud in the energy markets.
Brent crude's premium to its U.S. counterpart narrowed by 68 cents to $11.72 a barrel by 3:39 p.m. ET in post-settlement trading.
"Brent has lost a little momentum in its rally," said Gene McGillian of Tradition Energy in Connecticut. "But it's still got a big advantage to U.S. crude and that spread is unwinding a bit now."
Oil markets in the United States and Europe will be shut on Friday for a holiday.
The dollar weakened this week after Standard & Poor's cut its outlook for U.S. government debt to negative, leading some foreign exchange analysts to tout the euro's potential as an alternative reserve currency.
A weaker dollar can lift dollar-denominated oil prices by making oil less expensive for consumers using other currencies and by drawing investment away from foreign exchange markets seeking better returns.
Both Brent and U.S. prices had rallied on Wednesday after the U.S. government reported crude oil and refined products inventories fell.
Threats to supply in Africa and the Middle East remain and election turmoil in Nigeria and unrest in Yemen kept the uncertainty in focus.
Muammar Gadhafi's forces attacked a rebel-controlled oil pumping station in eastern Libya, an official with an insurgent-run oil company said.
A note of caution about oil demand was sounded by a report showing that while U.S. initial jobless benefit claims fell last week, they stayed above the key 400,000 level, indicating possible loss of momentum in any jobs recovery.
Also a concern, the pace of U.S. Mid-Atlantic region factory activity fell more than expected in April. It expanded in March at its fastest pace in 27 years.
The International Energy Agency's Chief Economist Fatih Birol said oil producing nations need to reassure the market after unrest in the Middle East and worries about supply disruptions pushed crude prices higher.

Are you expected to TIP at an owner/operator business? (Barber shop where the owner cuts your hair, food truck where the owner makes and serves the food)
I usually tip the woman that cuts my hair and she owns the business but I haven't ever tipped anyone on a food truck before as they were always over priced any way ! Guess it just depends on the business and service.

Project: City hospital, Horb, Germany
Contractor (and Architects): Baugeschäft Dieterle GmbH & Co. KG, Schramberg, Germany
MEVA Systems: wall formwork Mammut 350, wall formwork StarTec, support Frame STB 450, slab formwork MevaFlex
Formwork Engineering: MEVA Schalungs-Systeme GmbH, Haiterbach, Germany
This inner-city project involved modernising and extending a hospital in the city of Horb, south western Germany. The basement will house a linear accelerator requiring very thick walls and slabs to hermetically seal the accelerator room and keep the radiation inside. Cramped inner-city conditions and working on slopes made the task a real challenge.
What is Barite concrete?
That's a concrete mixture with barite as a heavy additive with a raw density of 4,000 to 4,300 kg/ m³. It is often used in buildings that house X-ray plants and for radiation protection in medicine and research. To optimise the protective function of such buildings, the concrete is poured in exceptionally thick walls and slabs.
Walls and slabs up to 1,90 m thick
The room housing the linear accelerator has walls that are 3,79 m high and between 1,50 m and 1,65 m thick. The slabs are up to 1,90 m thick. The viscous barite concrete required the use of a special pump. The ties were left in the pour and the openings sealed to ensure a hermetically sealed result. The slabs were formed using MevaFlex formwork with H20 beams supported by ME 350 props to carry the heavy loads.
Mammut 350 and support Frame STB 450
Walls and foundations were poured using the strongest available wall formwork – the Mammut 350 with a load capacity of 100 kN/m². It allows a free pour rate up to a height of 4 m. Single-sided wall formwork was supported by frame STB 450 to a height of 4,50 m. With its base width of only 2,45 m, the support frame was Slim enough for the cramped conditions.

As Qatar's population and economy keep growing and water demand is increasing, the Qatar General Electricity & Water Corporation (KAHRAMAA) has launched an ambitious water project to provide increased water storage capacities and extend the supply reserve of drinking water from two to seven days.
One of Ontario's busiest transportation corridors, Highway 400, began a major expansion project through Kings Township in late 2016. This $79.3 million dollar (CAD) project includes the widening of the highway from three to six lanes in each direction for a two mile stretch and also entails safer on and off ramps, the expansion and realignment of culverts, and the replacement of two bridges − one of them the South Canal Bridge.
The new theater is called The Otto M. Budig Theater and located in Cincinnati's Over-The-Rhine district. When completed, it will become the last section of the planned "Classical Arts Corridor" in Cincinnati, which also includes a Music Hall, School for Creative and Performing Arts, and a park.

HOUMA -- A local couple who prepare customers� taxes for a fee have been barred from using a specific deduction on federal returns in the future, federal officials said.
Rodney G. Bourg and Cynthia M. Bourg, east-Houma residents, prepare taxes under the business name Tax Prep, Cynthia Bourg said.
On Thursday, a federal court in New Orleans barred them from preparing federal income-tax returns claiming inflated deductions, according to a U.S. Justice Department news release. The Bourgs consented to the injunctions.
At issue is a deduction for meals, called a per-diem, the Bourgs included on the federal returns of some boat captains two years ago, Cynthia Bourg said. Some of the boat captains� meals were reimbursed by the companies
they worked for, others were not. The deductions were taken for the non-reimbursed meals, but an Internal Revenue Service review disallowed those deductions.
"We did do that, and the IRS says it doesn�t want us to, so we aren�t anymore," she said. "We are still preparing taxes; this just bars us from preparing taxes using that deduction."
Cynthia Bourg said the agreement is a "compromise and not an admission of guilt."
Federal officials say the Bourgs prepared federal income-tax returns with improper deductions for customers who worked as mariners, fishermen, merchant seamen and ferry workers.
The ruling requires the Bourgs to notify their customers of the court�s prohibition and to give the Justice Department a list of the names, mailing and e-mail addresses, social-security numbers, and telephone numbers of customers for whom they prepared returns with improper deductions.
This is the sixth injunction obtained against Louisiana tax preparers who claimed the "mariner�s deduction."
Feds cite Houma couple for preparing tax returns improperly

I purposed this summer to say no to most things, and make the most out of the few outings we did have. No, we didn't go on a vacation this year. We went camping a few times, we've gone to the pool, and we've read and been lazy. I can't remember the last time I actually felt refreshed by our summer break. I admit that saying no has been harder than I thought. I'm continuing to say no into the fall, and we'll see how the burnout goes.
|We spent a day at Raccoon Creek State Park.
|Jumping into Deep Creek Lake.
We're starting school on August 27 this year. Here's the break down, for those of you who like to know these things:
Scrappy, age 10
Math: Math-U-See Gamma (for a couple weeks to finish up) and Delta
Health: Queen book on puberty for boys
Funny, age 9
Math: MUS Beta/Gamma
Health: Queen book on puberty for girls
Goofy, age 8
Math: MUS Beta/Gamma
Silly, age 6
Math: MUS Alpha/Beta
LA: Explode the Code
Everything else is the same for everyone, except Silly who has her own LA:
LA: Queen Language Lessons for the Elementary Child
Cursive/Copywork (That's from Queen also)
Queen spelling
a random workbook of vocab word of the day fun
Easy Grammar Plus
Bible: Humility study (more Queen)
Okay, so really, I need to do this study more than anyone. We're going to be doing it as a family--even Hub is going to participate.
Science: Apologia Land Animals (hoping to finish in December) and Astronomy
SS: Story of the World vol 3 (finally we're done with vol 2!)
assorted readers about American history
Maps & Geography workbook (just parts of it)
some yet-to-be-determined project on PA inventors or history (I'm organizing something with other homeschoolers. I probably need to think about that.)
Health: Abeka
Music: orchestra unit study
Art: Notgrass Draw to Learn--The Life of Jesus (has anyone used this?)

Dell today announced 24 new business computing solutions and form factors, including laptops, tablets, desktops and workstation computers in one of the largest-ever introductions in the company's history and part of 39 new solutions launching in the next year.
New offerings include: Dell Latitude E5420, E5520, E6220, E6320, E6420, E6520, E6420 ATG laptops and XT3 convertible tablet. Additionally, Dell is introducing the Dell OptiPlex 990, 790 and 390 desktops as well as an OptiPlex Small Form Factor All-in-One Solution. Dell also announced the Dell Precision T1600 desktop workstation and Dell Precision M6600 and M4600 mobile workstations.
Dell also announced plans to release a new "business-ready," 10-inch Windows 7 tablet computer later this year. The news is notable in part because Dell has been embracing Google's Android operating system on smaller tablet devices. Little more was said about the plans for the Windows 7 device.
"The upcoming tablet is designed for end-users who need greater mobility, as well as IT organizations that demand control, security, manageability and integration with existing infrastructure investments," a Dell news release said. "Dell's tablet will empower a more mobile workforce in a way that offers customers the business applications and corporate data they need, while meeting regulatory mandates and IT requirements."

Meet the Founder
Dr. Joe Massey is at the heart of the Egg Donor Alliance. He is recognized as a global innovator and leader in the field of IVF.
Joe B Massey, M.D. has been a pioneer in the field of infertility since he first studied IVF in Australia the early 1980's. He was involved in the first pregnancy in the world following assisted hatching in 1988 and ICSI in 1993. His clinical trials and co-authorship of a plethora of articles published in medical journals have culminated in co-founding Servy Massey Fertility Institute (SMFI), a low-cost, full-service fertility clinic in Georgia.
Dr. Massey attended Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia for undergraduate, as well as medical school. He then completed a residency in obstetrics and gynecology and a fellowship in infertility at the University of Pennsylvania.
After serving in the US Navy, Dr. Massey entered private practice focusing on fertility treatment. In 1983, he co-founded Atlanta's first infertility practice, Reproductive Biology Associates, where he practiced until 2006. Then Dr. Massey worked on perfecting a low cost approach to IVF to be able to help even more people build the family of their dreams, a vision he shared with Dr. Servy that led to the formation of Servy Massey Fertility Institute.
Dr. Massey is a former board member of Resolve and the Society for Assisted Reproductive Technologies.

Fear Paperback
by Stefan Zweig
A bourgeois housewife's affair is discovered, and a blackmailer turns her comfortable life into a nightmare of apprehensionFinding her comfortable bourgeois existence as wife and mother tedious after eight years of marriage, Irene Wagner brings a little excitement into it by starting an affair with a rising young pianist.
Her lover's former mistress begins blackmailing her, threatening to give her secret away to her husband, meanwhile her husband seems to offer her numerous opportunities to confess and be forgiven.
Irene is soon in the grip of agonizing fear. Written in the spring of 1913, and first published in 1920, this novella is one of Stefan Zweig's most powerful studies of a woman's mind and emotions.'The rediscovery of this extraordinary writer could well be on a par with last year's refinding of the long-lost Stoner, by John Williams, and which similarly could pluck his name out of a dusty obscurity.' Simon Winchester, TelegraphStefan Zweig (1881-1942) was born in Vienna, into a wealthy Austrian-Jewish family.
He studied in Berlin and Vienna and was first known as a poet and translator, then as a biographer.
Zweig travelled widely, living in Salzburg between the wars, and was an international bestseller with a string of hugely popular novellas including Letter from an Unknown Woman, Amok and Fear.
In 1934, with the rise of Nazism, he moved to London, where he wrote his only novel Beware of Pity.
He later moved on to Bath, taking British citizenship after the outbreak of the Second World War.
With the fall of France in 1940 Zweig left Britain for New York, before settling in Brazil, where in 1942 he and his wife were found dead in an apparent double suicide. Much of his work is available from Pushkin Press.

Review by kidzdoc
Irene is a young and attractive woman of the cultured class in early 20th century Vienna, whose husband is a successful and respected trial lawyer. Irene is materially content but bored, as servants care for her children and govern the house, and she spends her days in the company of her all too similar friends. She is lured into an affair with a promising young pianist, which gives her life spark and an alternative sense of purpose.As she leaves her lover's apartment one day, Irene is accosted by a raffish woman, who accuses her of stealing her man. The woman threatens and bullies her, and Irene gives her all the money she has, to avoid a public scene. She attempts to hide indoors for several days to escape the mysterious woman, but the shock and concern of her husband, children and servants cause her to become more claustrophobic and distraught. Irene experiences a brief sense of relief, believing that the woman does not know who she is or where she lives, until she turns up outside of Irene's building, demanding even more money.At that point Irene's world begins to simultaneously crumble and shrink, as she knows that disclosure of her affair would lead to ruin for her husband's career and end her life of comfort. As the woman's demands become more frequent and as her family becomes more suspicious of her unusual behavior, Irene devises a plan to escape her tormentor, for good.<i>Fear</i> is a gripping psychological thriller, which left me short of breath and on the edge of my chair, as Zweig masterfully portrays Irene's increasing despair and irrationality. Highly recommended!
Review by DieFledermaus
In this short, addictive novella, Zweig stays in the head of a woman who learns that her adultery has been discovered. It's a rather claustrophobic place. Irene Wagner has a comfortable life with a considerate husband and adored children. She falls into an affair with a pianist, but one day as she is leaving his place, she is confronted by a woman who starts to blackmail her. The rest of the book is mostly concerned with Irene's inner torment, as she tries to act normal but ends up refusing to go out, alienating her husband and contemplating suicide. She starts to wonder if she knows her husband, a celebrated prosecutor, at all – she has no idea how he'd react to the news. There are some plot twists but the most powerful part is Zweig's depiction of a woman's fear and desperation. It's a quick story but very intense and Zweig is skilled at portrayed Irene's psychological state.
Review by Smiler69
The wife of a prominent Viennese lawyer who has been having an affair with a young musician is accosted by a woman in the street one day. The young woman, visibly in dire straits, claims to have also been one the the musician's mistresses, and begins to allude to blackmail, to which the married woman responds by giving her all her money. Before long the blackmailer is demanding increasing sums every day and our heroine is terrified of being found out by her husband, even as he repeatedly encourages her to share the fears that have her screaming out at night. A psychological drama which is a product of it's time (1910s-1920s) with the roles of men and women narrowly defined, but in which human nature and the nature of fear itself are played out to great effect. My second short story by Zweig, it had me weeping (from sadness? from relief?) in the end.
Review by MSarki
Fine little novella. Engaging and suspenseful. True to life. Stresses actually how important it is to communicate with one another.

Alaska Conservation Foundation > Experience Alaska > Alaska's Sanctuaries, Parks, Refuges and Communities > Refuges > Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge
One of Alaska's oldest and best-known refuges, Kodiak is famous for its huge brown bears, the largest meat-eating land animal in the world. Feasting on Kodiak Island's abundant salmon, they can grow to be 10 feet tall on their hind legs and weigh three-quarters of a ton. Some 2,300 of the bears prowl the refuge, drawing hunters from all over the world.
The salmon that flood the Refuge's many rivers and streams attract sport fishermen and supply about two-thirds of the catch for the local commercial salmon fleet.
Some lands from the Refuge were given back to Native ownership as part of Alaska's Native Claims settlement. The 1980 Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act added some offshore island parcels and another 275,000 acres were re-acquired with compensation paid by Exxon after its 1989 oil spill hit parts of the area.

A Utah man who mysteriously contracted Zika from his infected father may have gotten it by touching his dad's tears or sweat with his bare hands, according to new research unveiled Wednesday that found the unusual transmission method was likely caused by his dying father having 100,000 times the normal level of the virus.
The research done by University of Utah doctors and reported in the New England Journal of Medicine doesn't give definite answers to why the father's levels were so high or why the son contracted the virus in a way not documented anywhere else. But it does offer new details about the events the led to a case that has puzzled researchers.
The father, 73, had been diagnosed with prostate cancer eight months before his June death, the report says. He was receiving radiation therapy and anti-androgen therapy, which may have made it easier for the virus to replicate, said Dr. Sankar Swaminathan, chief of the infectious diseases division at University of Utah Health Care. But Swaminathan said the cancer and treatment doesn't totally explain why the man had such extremely high levels.

A new dating app has arrived with the simple but ingenious idea of matching people on the things they hate.
Ever found that you've bonded more with someone over a mutual hatred? Well, you're not the only one. Apparently it's a proven science thing as well.
New app, Hater, puts this well and truly to the test, with about 2000 topics to swipe hate on (or love, dislike and like). Topics cover everything from Trump to slow walkers to sleeping with a lot of pillows on your bed – it's pretty comprehensive.
Just like Tinder, you're matched when both people swipe right. With Hater, there's even a handy little icebreaker in the form of a hate card that you can play to start the conversation for you.
The official release date is February 8, but apparently there are already 10,000 Haters using the app.
It's currently available on the Australian iTunes store and will soon appear for Android as well, so that everyone can hate to their heart's content.

No matter what IT is just keep pushing.
It's no secret that this marathon training is crazy challenging for me. As I wrote on Friday, I am unable to deal with how hard it is and how badly I want to quit.
Two days ago, I went out for my long run–despite the terrible training week I had and even worse long run of 14 miles last weekend. I didn't even sleep properly because I was so anxious about doing 15 miles when I had to drag myself to complete 14 last week. This time around I'd have another race sandwiched in between so I was not looking forward to it at all.
Surprisingly, the opposite happened. I felt pretty good throughout. I started with a 2 mile warm up through Times Square at 7am (which was pretty cool considering that the tourists weren't too bad) so by the time I got to Central Park I had 3 minutes for my race to start and I felt good–nothing hurt and all the kinks were out!
As I stood in my corral I earhustled a fun conversation with a woman and a married couple that seemed to have been in the same running club. I took a quick glance at the woman and noticed that she was drenched–like me–except it looked like she had done a lot more miles than I did. She mentioned how hard it was to train for a marathon and because this was her third it was over and done. THEN she mentioned how hard it was to train for two marathons in one year. WHAT?!
This woman ranted and raved about the trials of marathon training and it was like I was hearing my own self speak. It was surreal to hear her struggles because they were exactly my own. I turned around and nodded with her in agreement several times and I mentioned that I would be right there with her when she said she'd be "plodding along" at the marathon. It made me realize two things–I am not alone in this crazy up and down marathon journey and two–anything that you really want is worth fighting for. 100%.
The conversation stayed with me for the rest of the race and the long run beyond. It made think of the many, many things that I have wanted BADLY and had to work REALLY hard to get. My house, my degrees, my job, this blog–so many things that I consider accomplishments had an extreme labor of love attached to them. It took six long months to close on my home–Several times through the process I simply thought it wasn't happening anymore. We even started looking at other houses–it was crazy.
Comparing all of the trials and the crazy of my life to the current trials and crazy of marathon training makes me realize that there isn't much difference. There will ALWAYS be challenges in something that you want really badly–it is just how it is. All the hard work leads to serious reward. As I ran on Saturday, feeling amazing and hitting mile paces I haven't seen since April–I remembered what sparked me to run a marathon in the first place. I want to run all five boroughs and high five random people. I want to raise money for the children at the Ronald McDonald House. I want to prove to myself that I can do this. I want to be a marathoner.
Whatever it is that you are pushing towards right this moment, keep pushing. Always keep pushing. Try not to let the trials overwhelm you (like they did me) because your breakthrough could be right around the corner. Whatever your dream is, keep moving, keep making progress, keep inching closer.

By Jack Steiner
My high school girlfriend told me she wanted our first time to be romantic. She talked about going to the mountains and making love on a bearskin rug and how special that would be.
I nodded my head and told her she was right and said my mom was going to be home soon so we needed to finish quickly.
Clearly I was a very sensitive 17 year-old boy. One who was far more concerned with being able to get a blow job before his mom came home than listening to his girlfriend talk about what she wanted her first time to be like.
I wanted to have sex and I wanted to have it with her, but I didn't care about details. All I wanted was to experience what my 10th grade health teacher referred to as sexual intercourse. I wanted to know what it felt like.
I was 17 when I got my first blow job, and the truth is I really didn't know what was supposed to happen. She was 16 and when she asked me if I wanted one and I said yes. When she told me she'd never done it before and asked for help, I told her to put it in her mouth and then I said I was sure she'd figure it out. And then I hoped she would.
By the time the opportunity to have sex came around, we thought we were experts on everything else, but we broke up before we could do the deed and that played a big role in why she wasn't my first.
That prize went to a girl I met at summer camp when I was 18, and the grand finale came far too quickly… twice. I was really attracted to her and a little intimidated, and I told her third time's the charm, but by that point my charms were of no interest to her. So she found some other guy and I was forced to wait for someone else.
When I think back, I realize those moments had more influence on me than I had initially thought because when the opportunity to have sex came again I approached it differently. More bravado. More posturing. And more effort to be like the men I had seen on television and in the movies.
It took close to a year, but when the next woman came along, I felt pretty damn cool because she was seven years older than I was. Her roommate was gone for the weekend and we had their two bedrooms all to ourselves. She said I would be her gift and she told me I could have her all weekend long.
It's kind of funny looking back because I remember the blow job she gave me to prepare for our all-nighter with far greater detail than when we had sexual intercourse. I suspect it was as memorable for her as for me, which is to say, not very. What I remember most was looking down to confirm that everything was in place and then closing my eyes so that I could focus on what it felt like. It sounds a bit silly and ridiculous now, but first times are often a bit silly and ridiculous, aren't they.
As a father, I cringe a little bit reading these words and thinking back. Cringe because I don't want my daughter to be with a guy who is as cavalier as I was, and because I don't want my son to be who I was then either.
Once I really started having sex I wasn't interested in women who were virgins. I wanted someone who knew what she liked, what she was doing, and wasn't going to expect me to be in love. I wasn't a bad guy, but that first time stuck with me and I didn't want to be embarrassed like that again, so I did my best to prevent a repeat performance.
That 18 year-old kid and the twenty-something that followed never would have believed that sex in my forties would be so much better. But you can't screw an old head on young shoulders and there is something to be said for life experience and the maturity to love and be loved.

Review for M G Enterprises
Kelly B. on 03/17/2016
"I love my old dependable lots of mileage car. I also love MG Enterprises for taking great care of my car."
MG Enterprises is a honest,trustworthy and reliable business. MG Enterprises is the reason I can have my vehicles for 15+ years. I will go nowhere else. I had a 2000 GMC truck with 265,000 miles on it. I loved that truck! I had to buy a new truck although my old truck was still running great. I sold the old truck it to a friend! Now that says a lot selling a vehicle with all those miles on it to a friend... I could do this only because MG Enterprises serviced and maintained my truck from day one I am the original owner. The truck owes me nothing! His son souped it up as it is his first vehicle and all he wanted was a truck!! and is driving it to and from school and work everyday! MG Enterprises is the reason I can keep my older vehicles trustworthy,dependable and reliable as MG Enterprises is all of those qualities and more!

Hi Kelly,
Thank you for the Great Review. I means a lot to us that you are Happy with the work that we do for you. Hopefully we can do the same thing for you with the new GMC. But you will have to start driving it a little more if you want it to go to 300,000 Miles. Thanks Again Mike G.

Unanswered: Object doesn't support this property or method: 'RS.Find'
Hi...I'm no guru on ASP or VBScript but here goes.
I have almost completed tweaking vbscript to run on mysql rather than the Access database it was designed for. Trial and error, luck and a bit of detective work have got me this far, however I am getting the following error when tryinf to update existing records in the database
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01b6'
Object doesn't support this property or method: 'RS.Find'
/faq/admin/edit2.asp, line 7
The piece of script looks like this in Dweaver
Set RS = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
RS.Open "Questions", Conn, 2, 2
RS.Find "ID='" & Request("ID") & "'"
The .Find text is black whereas all other "methods"(?) like the .Open are pink. Is it that the .Find method works with access and not mysql and if so waht is the equivalent or am I barking up the wrong tree?
Any help much appreciated

Instead of:
RS.Open "Questions", Conn, 2, 2
RS.Open "SELECT * FROM Questions WHERE ID = '" & Request("ID") & "'", Conn, 2, 2
(Assuming "Questions" is a table in the MySQL DB you're connected to)
This is a much better way to query for data since you will only receive the rows that match your WHERE clause, and not the whole table. Besides, I don't believe "Find" is a valid method in the ADODB.Recordset object.That which does not kill me postpones the inevitable.

All watchmakers are known for their expertise in certain specific areas of timekeeping and it is important that you choose a watch that is most suitable for your personal requirements and lifestyle. Also, the dials on womens watches have to be unconventional while not being too chunky because female wrists tend to be delicate.
This Fastrack Basics Analog watch for women has the perfect combination of individuality and delicacy. The watch belongs to the Basics collection and has an analog mechanism. Made exclusively for women, this casual watch can be paired with almost anything in your wardrobe to give it a look of angled sophistication.
Body and Design
The contemporary dial of this womens analog watch from Fastrack looks chic and gives it a modern feel. The color used on the dial matches the strap and looks minimalistic. The strap of this watch is made of leather which has been a favorite strap material for years now; not only does it looks classy, it also feels warm and comfortable on your skin.
The back case of the watch is made of stainless steel which provides durability to the watchs internal parts. The large metal lugs that attach the strap to the dial and the white silver hands add aesthetic appeal.
Functions and Other Features
Every person wants a watch that is durable and functional in addition to the style factor. A watch that gets spoilt at the slight splash of water or the smallest bump against the table simply is not worth spending money over. This womens analog watch from Fastrack Basics is not only water-resistant but also has a water diving depth of 30 m. You can wash your hands at the sink or get wet in the rain without worrying about causing any damage to the watch. If you are looking for a daily wear watch that sports a different design, this is the watch for you.

I chose to gather enough facts before I could say anything on this issue of "scrapping of putme". We remember last year July when government woke up one day and brought out what they called "Jamb New Policy" in which some people were transferred to other schools without their consent. Some were transfered to state universities where they couldn't have afforded the school fees, some were transferred to far places where they never imagined they could ever school, some were transferred to northern universities to be killed by boko haram and so on. Some automatically became ineligible to participate in putme in schools they chose in utme, some were sad just like some are right now, some felt frustrated just like some are right now, some felt intimidated, some were insulting Jamb management just like some are doing now, etc.
My dear, let us learn how to calm down, let us learn how to handle things, let us learn how to talk in certain situations, let us be analytical in certain things. Let us understand that gone are the days when some people would take some decisions and they fly or be allowed not to stay without serious analysis and consideration on what the effects will be on the affected people both positively and negatively. Government told us that they would be having a meeting with Jamb on the issue of cutoff marks for putme and not to discuss about scrapping putme. Scrapping putme which has been in existence for about 10 years now wont just be an easy thing or something someone would wake up one day and decide. This is because it will distablise a lot of things and also delay or slow down academic activities when it comes to admission process.
Am not saying putme should stay, neither am I saying it should be scrapped. What am trying to say is that there should be pre-information to both universities and aspirants.
Those of you who are dancing to this news, try and ask yourself some of these questions.
If putme should be scrapped:
- What will happen to some of the aspirants that are hoping to use their putme scores to make up their poor utme results?
- How will the universities determine cutoff marks?
- Do you know the cutoff marks may be increased in order to reduce the number that will be admitted?
- Do you know that sortting of admission with money will increase and mostly; people with money will be admitted regardless of the person's utme score?
Scrapping of putme is good but the aspirants should be informed before writing utme for them to be aware that all their hope and fate lie on what they will score in utme. Government cannot just wake up one morning and decide the fate of Nigeria university aspirants without considering certain circumstances. They tried it last with Jamb new policy and it didn't work out because they didnt plan it well and on time. This recent one may not work out also for this year except from next year because they didn't plan it well and on time. Government should learn how to plan things well and on time even when the plan is good, thats my take.
I think at this moment, all aspirants should be as wise as the dove and be prepared for anything. We are in a confused country where some people's welfare and state of mind are not put into consideration before some decisions are made, always beat their confusions by being wise and be prepared for the worst. I still advice you, dont STOP reading or preparing for putme until its officially and mutually approved and accepted by both Government, Jamb and university managements. In my next post, am going to give you people some hints on how admission used to be during our own time when there was no putme. Am going to make enough inquiries if same procedure will be used, I will also let you people know the advantages and disadvantages of such old system of admission but before then, keep reading your books and be preparing for putme incase if a mutual agreement is not reached later on the issue of scrapping putme.

CodePlexProject Hosting for Open Source Software
First of all congratulations for a great project. We love your client and we think it could be a great start for us. We are newbies in GIS development and would appreciate some feedback.
We are planning to develop an intranet GIS solution for web and win forms and we are going to use Geoserver and WMS,WFS and WFS-T. We need to display some layers on the map and edit some other layers.
Our company does not allow an internet access and my questions are:
Any help would be appreciated.
I suggest you look at the DeepEarthMap, it is completely open source and license free, supply your own imagery. It is only supporting the web mecator projection (Bing, Google, Yahoo, ESRI all use) so you need to get your WMS to output that projection, it
is offically EPSG:3857 but used to be EPSG:3785 or EPSG:900913. ESRI called it "Web Mecator".
The Microsoft control does require a license under some conditions and will need an internet connection. That control has some extra features, like world wrap and new birdseye and streetside modes.
We had planned for WFS-T support but I've struggled to understand where exactly the standard is and I don't have a project using it or experience with it. In the Bing Maps toolkit we have used the NetTopologySuite library to allow use to serialise to WKB,
I'm using this in many systems now to talk to SQL2008 geography data types for both rendering and editing. I'd say we have the building blocks here but there is a bunch of work to do.
Make sure you're getting the latest source, we are very close to making a new release, the current one is very old. Good luck with your project and feel free to ask questions here.
Thank you for the information!
We can´t control the WMS output (to be projected in EPSG:3857). We will use some WMS:s with SWEREF99TM or RT90_2,5_gon_V projection. Can we still use DeepEarthMap?
Can anyone answer
montanazo answer from the post above - we have similar problem. We are projecting maps in EPSG:26713 (though later this will change to Irish Grid) from GeoServer via WMS - will the map control be able to display it?
Yes the map control will be able to display your map.
We display maps from different sources in different projections. We request always 4326 from the wms provider. Make sure your wms services support

"If ye being evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your Father in Heaven give good things to them that ask him?"
Someone mentioned this scripture in a lovely talk in church today and I have been thinking of it ever since, though in a slightly different context. We have recently had some set-backs with Will and our hopes for his eating. We removed the ng tube in an effort to get him to develop normal biorythms with regard to food and to learn appropriate self-feeding techniques, two things he has been deprived of since tube placement at 14 months of age. For about a month, he did really well and I thought we had proved all the doctors wrong about Will. He was able to take in more calories by mouth than he had tolerated with the tube (he would vomit up the tube feeding sometimes as much as two or three times a day and always at least once a week) and some days he would even exceed his caloric intake requirements. But in the last few weeks his eating broke down, he began vomiting again, we were told that he is allergic to a broad spectrum of basic foods and his weight simply plateaued where it had been when we began our experiment. I realized, when I found myself fighting my poor little two year old every day (I reminded myself of Jillian Michaels at mealtimes, which, incidentally, lasted easily 90 minutes), that our experiment needed to end for all our emotional and physical health. Will needed help to gain enough weight/inches to catch up and at least be at the bottom of the charts.
Will's health has been a long-standing source of stress and anxiety for our family and I have often envied those around me who seemed have it so much easier than I do. (I know, of course, that so many people have far worse health concerns with their children and I must sound like such a complainer to go on the way that I do.)Once another mother commented on the fact that her 14 month old was the same height as my 2 and four month old and I felt a resentment against her for weeks thereafter. Who, after all, makes that kind of comment about a little child whose ng tube taped to his face makes obvious that there is a health issue present? I suppose I am still irritated about it.
It has only been recently that I have realized that Will's health problems will most likely be long-standing and that they will require a lot of effort and money to even just ameliorate, and that our family needs to adjust accordingly. This trial that we had convinced ourselves, after we were told it was not Cystic Fibrosis, would be grown out of soon enough, is going to be much longer and more difficult than expected.
Often when we talk about trials, we take comfort in believing that they are blessings in disguise, sent to us from a loving Heavenly Father and perfectly taylored by him to help us in whatever way He sees we stand in need. I am not sure that is true, and fairly sure that it is not always true, but I think the best arbiter of whether a given trial was sent from God is the person bearing the burden.
What I do know is true is that with every hardship that befall us, He is there to bless us and help us through, and that these trials really always are opportunities for us to grow as people. That growth can take many forms, but I suspect that it always includes an expanded charitable instinct. After all, what He offers us in these dark times is his perfect love. It seems natural that, when properly endured, our trials help us to develop some love of our own.
It does not matter to me whether God plagued us with Will's health issues in order to bless us and I tend to believe that He did not. But I have seen how it all has created some positive attributes in our home. Andrew is a more protective older brother, Will is the bravest, toughest kid I have ever seen, Brigham and I feel closer as a couple as we struggle to find answers and solutions, our attitudes about eating and exercise have changed and I have experienced a new sense of responsibility and accountability as a mother and a determination to take charge of all things and get them done correctly rather than let the details slip through and fall where they may. I have been learning to prioritize the most important things and let go of those little concerns that eat away so much of our time and energy but that really don't matter at all. My prayers have taken on a new fervor and all of this increased looking towards God has awakened me to the other aspects of our home life that have been neglected (FHE, for example). Brigham has eaten dinner with us during the week only twice since we have lived here and all of this exhaustion that has come with Will's needs has made us realize that we cannot maintain this lifestyle. Our lifestyle, which is best characterized by "single mother with a government-level income in a really expensive area," is far from ideal. Brigham is missing out on these early years with our kids, and I am, too, to a degree because I allow the stress of it all to interfere with my appreciation for its beauty. We would probably continue on in this way indefinitely, as this is how most people out here live, but for Will's health and our dawning realization that a lot of things need to change to help get him better.
Will's health has been a hardship of origin unknown, but it has been surrounded by gifts that I can feel are from God.

The most interesting pilot in the world: Anheuser-Busch is objecting to Budweiser's frequent appearance in Denzel Washington's hands in the movie "Flight," in which the actor portrays an alcoholic airline pilot.
