Returning Trimble fired up to replace sidelined Piutau
With star signing Charles Piutau missing Ulster's Champions Cup opener with Bordeaux-Begles tomorrow, co-captain Andrew Trimble is ready to fill the void and make his first outing of the season.
As reported in yesterday's Belfast Telegraph, Piutau's European bow for his new side will be delayed by at least a week due to concussion but Trimble has recovered from a lingering toe problem and Director of Rugby Les Kiss has parachuted him straight back into the starting line-up.
Trimble said: "The European Cup is something that everybody looks forward to and it's something I've a lot of experience of playing in.
"It's always a special occasion no matter where you are but in the south of France we're obviously straight in at the deep end, and it's a big ask, but we're all excited by it.
"We want to put right a lot of the wrongs that happened last week against Connacht."
Trimble's return is just one of eight changes to the side that suffered a first defeat of the season in the PRO12 clash in Galway as Ruan Pienaar starts after being rested, with Stuart Olding and Luke Marshall also making their return in the midfield.
Up front, Franco van der Merwe returns after an ankle injury and the birth of his first child saw him miss out last week while Alan O'Connor is over an illness to join him in the engine room.
Andy Warwick gets the start at loosehead with Kyle McCall on the bench, while Kiss has also juggled his back-rowers.
Iain Henderson has retained his place but, with Sean Reidy back, it is Roger Wilson rather than Clive Ross who drops out of the starting line-up.

Bought a Gilt City deal- 5 course chef's tasting dinner with wine at the chef's table.
We bought the same thing last year, and the chef's were totally engaged with us, brought us so many different things to try- actually took pride in what they served us. So we decided to buy it again.
This time, the experience was as close to horrible and this restaurant should be embarrassed. There were two tables in the kitchen. One literally on top of each other. We were warmly greeted by the chef who said he was going to make us an "amazing meal". Well, I guess he was too busy the rest of the night, because a: we never saw him again, b: dinner was fair at best.
Our server, Raphael, had a major cold or some other disease- he was coughing as he was serving, in between checking his phone. At one point wary in the dinner he said something to my wife like, " oh, you think you're important because you're at the chef's table, well it's booked all the time, and you're just not"!! Are you kidding me? He then started yelling at the bus boys, and the wine steward who also was taking care of us. I called the manager over and he basically told Raphael not to serve us anymore- Unfortunately for the rest of the people he served, I'm sure his attitude or his health didn't change at all.
The salumi starter was fine, followed by chef Matteo''s signature Raviolio with egg which was wonderful. What followed was a joke. He sent out a piece of fish, which was put down in front of us without description. It was uneatable- smelled like, and tasted way too fishy. When the server saw we didn't eat it, they took it away, and brought us a plain pasta pomodoro which was fine. Next up, along with the comment, oh this is not on the tasting menu, was what looked like a short rib with some gnocchi. Well the gnocchi was good. Dessert of tiramisu followed which was fine. And then we sat. No offer of coffee, no offer of anything. Finally I found a captain in the dining room to get me a check. On the check was the full price of the tasting menu, of $145 per person!! And a suggested tip of $60 for the two of us.
All I can say is, this is a beautiful restaurant with an excellent chef. It looks like they are woefully understaffed, probably because of the way they treat the staff and this causes much havoc. We were also supposed to receive a visit from Marissa and or Tony May plus a gift card for wine- Neither of which happened.
All in all, a bad night in a New York restaurant that just doesn't seem to care anymore. What a waste of money!!

Country's richest man comes out in support of peace talksFriday, June 13, 2014
Santos receives backing from Colombia's top businessmen
BOGOTÁ — President Juan Manuel Santos' re-election bid received the backing yesterday of a large cohort of Colombia's most important businessmen and the country's wealthiest man, billionaire Luis Carlos Sarmiento Angulo, who spoke up in favour of ongoing peace negotiations with the FARC.
Financial mogul Nicanor Restrepo Santamaría, the former head of Bancolombia Jorge Londoño and prominent architect Pedro Gómez were among the two dozen businessmen that signed the open letter in support of Santos.
The businessment praised the president's economic policies. "Your government is responsible for unprecedented economic results, including a rise in employment, a rise in foreign investment and excellent international relations," the letter said.
"We've considered Oscar Iván Zuluaga's proposals but we believe that Santos is the best choice for Colombians," it added.
The president and right-wing opposition candidate Zuluaga are neck-and-neck in competition ahead of Sunday's runoff vote, with polls split over who will win.
Zuluaga, who is backed by former president and strongman Álvaro Uribe, took more votes in the May 25 first round but Santos' alliance with leftist candidate Clara López and the announcement of exploratory talks with the ELN (the country's second-largest rebel group) could tilt the balance in his favour.
The runoff has been turned into a referendum on the peace process with the FARC, with Santos saying the talks will collapse if he is not re-elected.
Zuluaga, who had said he would suspend the negotiations if he got to the presidency, has rolled back on his promise and now says he will allow them to continue under tougher conditions.
Banker Sarmiento Angulo said yesterday that the country "needs to put an end" to five decades of bloody conflict.
"I back the peace process, I like the peace process," he said.
The billionaire also referred to eventual negotiations with the ELN and said it would be "excellent news" for Colombia.
"Imagine that the government reaches a deal with the FARC and then starts a new peace process, I think that is excellent," he said.
Polls show that Santos has more support in Colombia's war zones while Zuluaga has more backing in cities and pacified areas.

Unanswered: Queries and the Length Function
Back again, and still confused!
In a query, I want to count the number of "A"s in a particular field, and then add up the total. Teachers can place one "A" or 2 "A"s in a field (some courses are held twice a week), and there is one field for each of 20 weeks (i.e. 20 string fields). Not my design. Should be simple:
absences: len([a1]) + len([a2])+ len([a2]) ....(etc) where [a1] is a string field for absences in week 1.
Won't work in a query. I can get the length function to read the field size (though this is perhaps erratic), but I cannot add them up (results are erratic.).
I tried to create a user defined query to carry out this function (in a module). Access did not like this either. Can user defined functions be used in queries?

JOAN Rivers, who's lambasted all and sundry via her Fashion Police gig, said there's one particular star who hasn't been able to take a joke.
"The worst criticism was, ugh, Gwyneth Paltrow," Rivers said on US cable show Watch What Happens Live.
"She came and yelled at us, but she stood up. She can't sit down 'cause she's got a stick up her rear end."
But 80-year-old Rivers wasn't done.
"The world's most beautiful woman voted by Helen Keller and Stevie Wonder," she scoffed. "Not my favourite."
There's certainly no love lost between the two.
In an interview with Harper's Bazaar last year, when Paltrow was asked about her beauty regimen, she said: "I've probably tried everything. I would be scared to go under the knife, but you know, talk to me when I'm 50. I'll try anything.
"Except I won't do Botox again, because I looked crazy. I looked like Joan Rivers."

Master tries to explain the nature of Realisation. Realisation is
something very different from
'liberation'. Liberation or
Salvation is 'getting out of the bonds
of rebirth'. Once you get rid of the
bonds of rebirth, you are said to be
liberated from the bonds. That is what
we call 'Moksha'. But that is
not the goal, though human
miseries and struggle make us think it
is important to get rid of the pain and
getting a kind of tranquility from the
operation of bondages. But 'realization'
is something much further. It is
'discovering your own Oneness with God.
The fact that you are liberated from the
bonds does not de facto mean that you
are 'realized'. There are probably many
liberated people hardly any who has
realized, ie., found his oneness with
God, the Ultimate being.
So, we could think of a large number of
liberated souls but not people who have
realized God. They may be in the process
of realisation in the sense that, after
having found freedom from bonds, they
discovered that there is more and more
to be attained than previously. So you
will see that liberation is not
Secondly, what is realisation?
Realisation has been defined by many
people as 'the attainment of a state of
God with all his powers of creation,
sustenation and destruction and so on
and so forth. Actually, these cosmic
processes are only with God, but not
with anybody else. So, even the highest
of the Souls in the realized condition
will not be given these powers. It is
the exclusive prerogative of the Divine Being alone. That is
the distinction between God and the
Souls will remain. But an individual Soul,
which is going towards realisation will
attain a condition which is far beyond
all that we have heard from our
spiritual savants. God is said to be Sat,
Now, this condition goes beyond Ananda.
You may ask the question what does it
really mean. We cannot express it. It
means, Master states, that it is a
condition of 'salt without saltishness'.
Salt may not be a good word as the
sweet. But there is a positive fact
which he enunciates of this condition.
This condition is the condition of
Omnipotent Will. A person who has
reached that State of Realisation can do
whatever he wants. His will is
invincible. Now that condition is what
we will have when we realize. I do not
know whether that is not a very high
state. In fact, he says that, when a
person ceases to be then there is realisation.
Now this is a negative description. An
individual reaches a state of isness,
that is he does exist and then he comes
to the condition of zero, absolute
negation, where there is no change at
all possible in his nature, even though
he is swimming in Infinity. Now that
condition is said to be the state of
realisation. Now, he compares this state
with the Nirvikalpaka Samadhi of
the Yogins. The Raja Yoga works actually
use the words "Samprajnatha" and "Asamprajnatha"
Samadhi. It does not use the word
"Nirvikalpaka or Savikalpaka
Samadhi". This language came from
Advaitins. This Nirvikalpaka Samadhi,
which has been preached by Advaita
saints or teachers is a condition when
we do not have a distinction between God
and self. In fact, there is neither God
nor self. There is neither object nor
subject nor even the knowledge in
between nor experience even. Now, that
is said to be a very high attainment in
that system. But that is not the goal
of our system. Our system wants to
develop the experience of God in a
natural way or Sahaja Samadhi, not
getting to That Condition when you are
disengaged from your bodily consciousness
or even the soul
consciousness completely. On the
contrary this is where we do work in
this world and go on doing all works
living in that contact with the Ultimate Reality all the
time. Now, Sahaja Samadhi means
attachment with Reality
all the time, without interruption even
when we are doing any work; not only
when we are in Dhyana
as in the case of Nirvikalpaka Samadhi or
even Savikalpaka Samadhi or Samprajnatha
or Asamprajnatha
Samadhi. This Sahajavastha is sought to
be established in everyone of our
Abhyasis, so that he will be doing his
duties detached from the fruits of
duties; but attached all the time to the
Reality which pours itself down into him
and supports him by its changeless
condition. So, this kind of
establishment in that Consciousness
which you may call a kind of
establishment in that Consciousness
which you may call a kind of "Stitha
Prajnatha" is normal to us and is
something to be attained by everyone of
us, which means that we are not trying
to get out of this world.
The world is not something to be
'shunned'; what we would renounce of it
is our attachment to it. That is, we
think that we cannot exist without the
object, without the body, without food
or without the property given to us.
Then, we are caught up in it. In other
words let me tell how the thoughts flash
to my consciousness. I was asking myself
how we built up all these securities
about us. Everybody wants to have a
house and then he wants to have a bigger
compound and still bigger compound and
so on and erecting compounds to prevent
people from jumping into our houses and
entering into them. Our own body may be
considered to be a series of securities
built up around us, around ourselves.
Now, after having built up our
securities suppose we have been confined
to the inner arena and never move out of
it and perhaps misplace our keys also,
so that we cannot get out of that, then
we think we are prisoners within our own
security. We know a fortress that is
built by our people to defend themselves
from enemy, finally becomes a prison —
house when it is surrounded by others.
Now this is how we have built up our
securities and attachments. So, the very
things we thought were necessary for our
existence are now discovered to be
obstructions to our freedom. In fact, we
are prisoners in our own house in our
own bodies by our own attachments.
Now, I shall give another example,
firstly a man wants to have a security
of wife, and in fact it is mutual let us
say, after wards they beget children and
a security of children and then more
children, more security and then finally
what do you find? In fact, we have what
we call family misery, not family
happiness. Our intentions were good, our
achievements have been rather
disappointing. The one way by which some
people say we can get rid of this
attachment is "remove all walls; throw
away the body, throw away the family,
renounce them, this is the only way by
which we can get liberated". But I
believe, if we only think why we
constructed for a while, and that it is
not a kind of madness or foolishness,
then we find that these securities are
necessary, but without attachment. They
must be flexible. We must have the power
to control the securities and we must be
able to displace some securities with
other types of securities. That is, all
these organisms are built-in mechanisms.
Then we need not get rid of the organism
itself, if we are flexible in human
nature. I think we have a freedom to
adjust the securities. So this freedom
is what we can really see when we use
our reason. So renunciation
as it is told by monks or mendicants is
I say a disastrous process when it is
done against a society within which we
have to grow. There is nothing wrong
about us in that we are attached to them
as if they are our real securities and
real bondages. There is neither bondage
nor security in them except that we find
them obstructing our real freedom or
when we find them not helping our
freedom. Everything is done for the sake
of freedom and not for the sake of
bondage. But we also know transitoriness
can bind us and little knowledge can do
much more havoc. So, we are prisoners on
our own accord and some times we like
the prison, some times we hate the
prison. Therefore, all bondages are due
to ourselves and not due to God.
Now how to get rid of this kind of
inflexible bondage, or securities? The
only way for us as individuals is to get
at God who gave us the capacity to
defend ourselves, to find why we are,
what we are. So our connection with God
becomes very important. If we connect
ourselves with God, then we will find
the rationale of our securities and
bondages, in which case, you are not
attached to them and we can use them as
freely as possible, without being bound
by them. Freedom is a dynamic process of
living in God, because God gives the
sense of freedom. We construct
everything out of Freedom. We barricade
ourselves within our fortresses out of
freedom and now we find that old
barricades are not useful. Things are
changing. The world is changing, our
patterns of life are changing. So, we
have got to throw them away and build
again if necessary, new securities which
permit our freedom rather than deny it.
Now if we understand from this point of
view we can know that God did not create
this world just to bind us. God created
the world to give us security and we
made it our prison. Now I think, only if
we can look about why and what is the
secret force with which the God created
the world for our freedom, then, we will
find that we are free in this world and
not bound.
No institution is perverse enough to
bind us for ever, but it can be a
liberating instrument. Now this is the
dynamics of spiritual life. We have got
to connect ourselves with the Ultimate.
And Master says it is more simple. But
we think that just as it was difficult
for us to create barriers around us, the
realisation of God must be as ingenious
as these things. Now it is true we have
built our Gods in our own image, and it
is a very funny thing when we study in
mythology how we have created Gods to
our own tastes and to our lives. But God
is really simple. Now the easiest thing
we can do is to connect ourselves with
God. Do not look to all these outer
things that we have created. Now through
them shall we realize God, not through
our barricades. What we have to get is
God's mind within us and it can be got.
Religions have said, "the way to know
God is torture". That is a terrible
thing, as if He is our enemy. Our
security is threatened by God. Therefore
we shall have God to our taste. Really
what Master says is the more simple
thing is to get at God, because if you
can look into yourself, He is the Force
that made you construct all these things
and so He is within you. Do we think the
Creative Power of our being, namely our
having a God with such ingenuity and
such skill is not a power that is free
from the thraldom? The very fact that we
can get out of this body when we want
and when we do not like the pattern of
our body, is a proof of freedom of the Soul.
Is that not the Divine? Therefore the Divine force is within us.
It is that which builds our body. It is
that which draws itself from that body
and it can create another body according
to its Will, with different type of
securities. Now this Supreme
consciousness is within us. Only what
has happened is so long as we are living
within this body, so long as we are
concentrated in the running of this body
in the supervision of the body, it has
lost the capacity to dominate the body
as an instrument of freedom. So, it is a
victim of bondage, victim to the
bondage, and to all its securities,
social, religious and so on.
Now, if a great man come to us and
arouse that Inner Force within us,
ignite it into action of its supreme
possibilities of freedom to know the
Divine and also to get more and more
power from that Divine thing, then, a
sense of freedom comes at once. Just as
a man who is bound, if he gets a force,
immediately expands and says 'here are
the possibilities to me, I can break up
my bonds', so also, if we can get the
Divine Force into our system, do we
think our own body will remain the body
that it is? It will be quickened with
new life, new force, new abilities and
new possibilities. Now, this is a very
great step. Master
says, it is possible to get this
connection most easily. All that is
required is a direct contact with the
heart from the Divine personality.
Now, since we do not have personalities
who can provide us securities more
securities and more bondages, we are in
difficulties. Our great learned savants
are people who have developed the fine
arts of creating more bondages and
assuring us that those Mantras
and Tantras
and Yantras
will help us. Now, that is not the way.
Here is something which transcends all
these techniques of art. It is an
opening of a direct connection which
seems to have a little weakened itself,
not altogether. That is why Master says,
"the introduction of the Divine Force of
thought into a consciousness is the
simplest thing that can happen and no
kind of ritual or rite or any other
technique of preparation are necessary.
It may appear so to people who are
brought up in the tradition of
securities and a craftsmanship in them.
But this is nothing. It is not something
to be believed. But you know Reality is
beyond rites. It is a thing practically
to be tested, in which case, you find
that all that we require in this is an
opening of a line of connection with God
which is to be done by Pranahuti. It is
only the man who has reached the Ultimate
condition that can do this. He must be
empowered by that Supreme Divine Reality
to connect every individual who offers
himself to this consciousness. It is
perhaps necessary to have a little
discontent over one's lot in order to
ask for it. It may happen even without
your knowledge. But then, there is this
possibility at the present moment, that
the Divine Personality is
with us today.
As our ancestors said, "Again and again
in history we get a Great Personality who takes to this
job of connecting individual souls
directly with Himself, so that humanity
can progress towards the higher
evolution to Spirituality". No doubt, so
long as that Personality is in this work
we do find that a large number rise up
to that level. A few people only pass
through, but a large number remain
bound. It has been so in history. At the
present moment, Shri Ram Chandraji says that
the Divine Personality is now with us
and it is because He is with us that
this process can be applied to every
individual who offers himself to it.
This Pranahuthi is a real
one and once it is established, the
human individual grows to his real
dimension of spirituality. He breaks the
bonds and small securities, which he has
built up, rather, they may not break but
he crosses them, because what has been
built need not be destroyed unless it is
useless for further security. It is just
possible we do not want security at all.
There was a time when everybody had to
build fortresses around his own houses……

"Most aspiring writers don't understand what it takes to become a published author." That's what Award-winning author and professional keynote speaker Robin Jay says when people tell her they are working on a book or that they dream of writing professionally some day. "Being naïve about the publishing industry doesn't mean you can't get published. You just have to be willing to take the time to learn how to do it. I enjoy helping people move forward with their writing goals." Jay says.
"You wouldn't just sit in the cockpit of an airplane and think that just because you've flown before, you would know how to pilot an airplane. Yet people write manuscripts every day, hoping to find publishing success. There are so many businesses just waiting for new writers to come along so that they can take advantage of them. If you don't know what you're doing, you could end up spending a ton of money and still not get published," Jay warns.
Jay, whose signature book is "The Art of the Business Lunch - Building Relationships Between 12 and 2" (Career Press), mentors writers and offers a keynote presentation on "Defining Yourself as an Expert: Using Publishing to Make Your Mark." Jay, who has been featured on MSNBC-TV, in Newsweek and on Forbes.com, says that in the highly competitive world of business, being published can help you to rise above your competition. She shares her personal experience in publishing, as well as many short-cuts available today for anyone who wants to become a published author. Some people dream of writing professionally while others understand the significance that being published can have on their career.
Originally self-published, Jay later hired an agent who then sold her work. Her book has since been sold in NINE languages worldwide. She is a contributor to "Chicken Soup for the Wine Lover's Soul," as well as several editions of "The Power of Mentorship" anthologies. She is also a featured mentor in "The Power of Mentorship - The Movie" along with "The Secret's" Bob Proctor and Marie Diamond.
She is the producer of the "Author's Secrets" audio program, in which she not only shares her first-hand experience but also interviews several experts in the field of publishing. Included in the program are her talks with John Kremer, author of "1001 Ways to Market Your Books" and Don Boyer, publishing mogul and founder of "The Power of Mentorship" series of books.
As a published author and professional speaker, Jay said that hardly a day goes by that an aspiring author doesn't come up to her to ask about writing, printing, publishing or speaking professionally. She said that speaking and writing go hand-in-hand; professional speakers should have books to promote their work and writers should be able to speak professionally as a means of promoting their written work. She offers coaching to aspiring authors and speakers to help them achieve their goals and become successful in the pursuit of their passion. Jay is also the founder and president of the Las Vegas Convention Speakers Bureau, so she knows what it takes to be a successful professional speaker.
In the "Author's Secrets" audio program, one of the guests she interviews is author Susan Zimmer. "Zimmer's story is positively shocking to anyone who is new to the publishing industry. Susan excelled at promoting her books," says Jay. "Yet, after selling 40,000 copies of her self-published book, she found herself nearly $80,000.00 in debt! Aspiring authors are stunned when they hear this. I included Susan in this program because most people who want to write have no idea how to monetize their passion. Without a blueprint for success, there are countless landmines just waiting for unsuspecting authors."
Jay introduced Zimmer to her agent who quickly sold her work, moving Susan into the ranks of "Professionally Published Authors," where she enjoys simply being an author and personality, no longer having to print or publish her books herself.
Jay said if you take the time to learn how to achieve your goals first, the path to becoming published or becoming a professional speaker can be quite simple. She believes that anyone can become a published author and thinks that people who don't take advantage of today's publishing opportunities are missing the best chance to define themselves as an expert in their field.
"I struggled to write my first book," shares Jay. "I was working 50-60 hours a week at my sales job and forced myself to write on Sundays. I never had a chance to recharge my batteries…I was a walking burn-out. I didn't know the publishing business or any of the fabulous short-cuts to becoming a published author. I only knew I wanted to write professionally. Now, I know simple ways to get published or create information products that will help other authors or speakers to realize their dreams. And I love to help business professionals create books and programs that will help them to stand out in their chosen field."

Holocaust Victims to be Remembered in South Dorset
2:20pm 24th January 2013
A Holocaust Memorial Event in Dorchester offers the chance to reflect this Friday. (25th January).
The free event will be held by the South West Dorset Multi Cultural Network, and will include talks, art works and readings from local schools, and music.
The theme for Holocaust Memorial Day 2013 is "Building a Bridge, Communities Together"
Anne Marie Vincent, Chair of the Network, told Wessex FM, "We are looking forward to our local community coming together to remember victims of the Holocaust and those whose lives have been affected by exclusion and hatred in subsequent genocides".
Dave Corbin, Equality and Diversity Manager for the Dorset HealthCare University NHS Foundation Trust, continued that, "The Holocaust Memorial Day event is an excellent and timely reminder of what can happen when good people do nothing. Having just returned from Germany and visiting Belsen concentration camp the atrocities need to be remembered so we don't ever allow it to happen again".
Furthermore, Sue Bickle, Equality and Community Development Officer for West Dorset Distract Council said, "The council are delighted to support the Southwest Multicultural Network in facilitating this important event, which is being replicated across the UK. These events remind us of the terrible consequences that can arise, not from deliberate action on our behalf, but through a failure to speak up for that which we know to be right".
The event itself will take place at the Corn Exchange between 12.30pm- 1.30pm, but the building will be open from noon serving refreshments and allowing people to look at the exhibits.
The actual Holocaust Memorial Day takes place on the 27th of January.

no relation but always a sad event when a child is seriously hurt boating.
A 10-year-old boy was seriously injured after a rough wave crashed into a chartered boat and knocked him unconscious near Cape Canaveral, authorities reported.
The incident happened about 8:30 a.m., a short time after the captain of a Blue Heron Fishing Charters boat disembarked.
The captain alerted Brevard County Fire-Rescue and the sheriffs office and brought the boat back to a dock at Port Canaveral along the 500 block of Glen Cheek Drive at Port Canaveral, an area where several fishing charter boats are based.
Paramedics issued a pediatric alert and requested a medical helicopter to retrieve the boy from Freddie Patrick Park near the public boat ramps at Sunrise Marina.
The child was taken to Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children in Orlando for further treatment. An investigation is ongoing.
The National Weather Service in Melbourne reported seas three to four feet with southwest winds of 10 to 15 knots.

Do you want to grow Fruit All Year round? I know I do. As part of the new infographic, Monday's I found one on growing fruit all year long. The infographic has 12 plants with info on how to grow them. It has the hardiness zones so you know what plants will grow in your zone.
I got really excited when I saw the Hass avocado on there. I thought I was wrong and maybe I could grow them here in Tennessee. Nope, they require zone 9-11 and I'm in a 7. Not to be discouraged there are plenty that is able to be grown in all zones. If you are really clever like Paul Wheaton you can try to grow a lemon Tree in Montana.
Growing Fruit fruit all year round means you have to find some that grow in the winter. Options are limited especially depending on your location. If you live in Austraila you will have more options thanWisconsinn. Persimmon is a potential fruit for your garden, along with cranberries and blackberries for the colder months. A good option for winter pies is the cactus pear.
This handy new infographic lays out all the best options for home-grown fruit, so that you can match your soil type and climate to your preferred fruits and create a calendar that matches your needs. Get planting today, and you'll soon be reaping the benefits of fresh air, lush surroundings, and healthy fruits whose sweetness is embellished with a hint of accomplishment.

Yes, I would. It is a book about love, and sacrifice.
When Mera makes her final choice.
No, I haven't, but I look forward to more of her narrations. She is amazing.
Yes, I had to listen to it in one setting. It was the kind of story that drags you along with it. I couldn't stop
I am not into the Zombie Apocalypse thing, I actually think it is quite humorous on the one hand, and gruesome on the other. The concept to me, is far fetched. However given how Science is messing with the engines of creation, who knows. This is a good story, it is a sad story, and uplifting at the same time. It is worth your time, and your tears.

Clorophilla Trailer (2006)
Clorophilla is a truly innovative mtb freeride film, which does not only show something, but also communicates a message. It is a film which highlights values like freedom, fun, friendship, and unity, rather than the riders' technical skills, all in a magnificent scenery where Mother Nature has the leading role. A cinematic feeling has been produced with the introduction of an unusually unique soundtrack, producing a perfect symbiosis between the original filming sounds and the music. While acting as editors, riders, cameramen, sherpa porters, and so on, six Italian friends have conceived, planned, and created a real-life film which remains closer to the everyday rider and his lifestyle.
Watch the official Clorophilla 2006 trailer in HD below or find more Clorophilla videos on Vidimovie.

There, said it! Zionism contradicts not only human rights but also universal justice. Zionism is above all. No less than the Israeli Minister of Justice Ayelet Shaked said this at a conference organized by the Israeli Bar Association in Tel Aviv. [1] Haaretz journalist Gideon Levy call her "Israel's Minister of Truth." [2] Right-wing Zionist ideology negates human rights.
Shaked and their ilk have been very critical of Israel High Court of Justice. In her speech, she criticized the court for giving insufficient attention to Zionism and the country's Jewish majority. Zionism and the challenges the country is facing have become a blind spot, which carries no certain weight in comparison to individual rights. According to her, demography and the Jewish majority should be taken more into consideration.
"Zionism should not continue, and I say here, it will not continue to bow down to the system of individual rights interpreted in a universal way that divorces them from the history of the Knesset and the history of legislation that we all know," Shaked said. The Netanyahu government pushes the controversial "nation-state bill" that will determine that Israel is the "national home of the Jewish people" and only they can realize the right to self-determination in the state. Shaked considers national and Zionist values as an "absolute truth."
Critics of Zionism have been saying that the State of Israel is not a democracy because it discriminates its non-Jewish inhabitants because of not being Jewish. The Israeli political establishment pretends that Israel is a "Jewish and democratic" state. Avram Burg, the former Speaker of the Knesset, the Israeli Parliament, called this an "oxymoron," a contradiction in itself. Right from the start, critics of the pseudo-democratic character of Israel had a hard time; "Anti-Zionists," "Anti-Semites," or "self-hating Jew," are outlaws. Critics, such as Oren Yiftachel, Professor at Ben Gurion University, call Israel an "Ethnocracy."
Shaked belongs to Naftali Bennett's nationalistic "Jewish Home" Party. This party together with the right-wing settler movement have hijacked Zionism and transformed it into a nationalistic, racist, and fascist-like ideology. Under Josef Burg, the long-time Interior Minister of Israel, the "National-Religious Party" was a religious liberal, conservative party.
The Israeli right cherishes a claustrophobic world view, i. e., the whole world is against us, and a next Holocaust is just around the corner. The newest example is the BDS Movement, which is seen by the Zionist establishment and World Jewry as an existential threat fought against by all available means, which also means at the cost of freedom of speech. In the US and other European states, such as Germany, the Zionist Israel lobby and their Philosemetic accomplices are just going berserk.
Let's be thankful to Shaked. Finally, she revealed the real face of Zionism, which anybody already knew who did not see things through rose-colored glasses such as the so-called Zionist left from the Labour party or the former Meretz party. They have been justifying the injustices, the racism, the occupation regime and the Apartheid system over decades. It's a pity that the West still accepts their hypocrisy. They are the so-called "good Israelis" in contrast to the Likudniks, not to speak of the Shakeds, Bennetts, Libermans and their ilk.
The disenchanting of the real face of Zionism by Shaked and Gideon Levy praise of this invited severe contradictions by so-called liberal Zionists such as Ravit Hecht.[3] According to her, a "fragrance of true love exudes from Levy's text to his honest, brave princess." Hecht tries to save the real Zionism because what Levy and his ilk are defending is a "sadistic distortion." Hecht is wrong by insinuating that Levy and others prefer the leadership of Shaked and their conservative colleagues to the liberal Likudniks. Levy praises Shaked only for speaking the truth about the real Zionism, which is anti-democratic, racist, and anti-liberal.
The Zionist intruders want to portrait this conflict as a religious one between Muslims and Jews, which is wrong. Jewish life has flourished in Muslim countries until the Zionist appeared on the scene in Palestine. Only then, the conflict started. The only goal of the Zionist is to take over the Land of Palestine and get rid of as much Palestinians as possible. The whole charade has nothing to do with religion and should be rejected by the international community. The Palestinian people are victims of a racist movement that is as distant to religion as the earth from the moon.
These are the real problems Zionism is facing. Levy knows this. That's why he praised Shaked. She is the one to show the actual face of Zionism to the world. The international community should demand from Israel to become a representative an liberal democracy for all its citizens. One consequence could be an international boycott of the State of Israel.

Trillion has been designing marketing materials for health and wellness programs and events for some time now. Our home state of New Jersey has one of the largest concentrations of global pharmaceutical companies in the world. So it is interesting that, among the many serious players in the pharmaceutical advertising world, we won an American Health + Wellness Design Award from Graphic Design USA for the YMCA of Montclair. This has quickly emerged as the most selective of design competitions with only 135 winners from multiple categories chosen from the many entered nationwide.
This past winter, Trillion designed marketing materials for the YMCA of Montclair's holiday membership campaign which consisted of flyers, posters, large banner, and web advertising. The campaign was a huge success and resulted in more than double the sales from the prior year. You can see more samples of the work here.

The Sexual Offences Section detectives are responsible for enforcement, forensic interviewing and investigations of all aspects of sexual assaults. The Section also investigates files including:
- multi-jurisdictional, multi-victim or multi-suspect incidents
- sex crimes that occur in licensed facilities.
Other areas of responsibility include online monitoring of child exploitation offences and 100% compliance with the Violent Crime Linkage Analysis System in conjunction with the RCMP.
Section members liaise with other police agencies, hospitals, the Ministry of Children and Family Development and are involved in providing education and awareness to the public and community.
Crime Prevention Resources
Just about every child or teenager has their own cellular phone or device that gives them access to the Internet. It is impossible for parents to monitor their child's Internet usage 24 hours a day. Unfortunately, our Section investigates far too many incidents where children are persuaded to share nude images or conduct themselves in a manner using the phones/devices that they would normally never do in person.
There is technology to help parents keep their children safe. Publicly available software can help parents monitor their child's cellular phone or computer usage. For a monthly fee, this software will allow you to read your child's text messages, see the images they take, websites they access, friends they are communicating with on Facebook and much more. Use a search term such as "cell phone monitoring" to find an option that will work for your family.
While at home, some parents turn the wi-fi off at night or insist all the Internet devices are kept at a common charging station in order to limit their child's usage.
Additional Resources to Keep Children Safe
See our School Liaison Section for a list of resources to protect children from sexual exploitation and other crimes.

His wife, Samantha, tells him she's pregnant. Meanwhile, he's got an exhibition match with local boy Artie Duane. Johnny lets him get a few punches in to look good, but when Artie starts taking cheap shots, Johnny can't stand by and overreacts.

Didn't capture my attention from the first 20 seconds. "I wanna be a hero" wasn't an attention grabbing line. I ended up browsing the web when the intro credits came up and only heard obscure conversations.
Voices were low, fix the volume and then i'll judge them better.
I'm not sure sedated G rated NickJr theme music is appropriate for hamsters who want to set houses on fire. Just my 2c.
Screw being a hero?!
HAHAHA...Good one.
It was okay, there was humor there but you didn't make the most of it. The joke itself is important but the way it is executed is equally important. In this case, your delivery was hurt mostly by the blandness of the characters' voices (the characters' voices were also indistinguishable from one another). In other words, because your animated expression is very simple, you have to make up for it with expressive voices (don't hold back on the mic). You got timing down very well in the beginning where the other hamster says "you were watching the documentary, weren't you?", but not so well near the end when the taller hamster decides to go paint the fence instead. The main reason I didn't find the end funny, however, was really because the reason to find it funny was too simple. In the end, the humor was basing itself on contrary common sense, and if incoherent humor is the humor you're going for, then maybe the animated expression and the voice acting should mirror that quirkiness more. Like the voices, this flash had an overall blandness about it, but I admire your effort and can see that you put a lot of work into this. Just keep an open mind and continue to be productive, certain things will become clearer and you'll improve as you go.
Sorry if I didn't explain myself all that well, I haven't reviewed in a while so my analytic thinking is a bit rusty, but by your next submission I'll be sure to get back up to speed and give you as helpful a review as I can! I hope this one was at least a little helpful, though. Nice job and good luck on your next work!
was sokay
Wow I have to say this isn't really good at all I'm sorry but the drawings are fair at best you used your voice for all the characters (you could have changed your tone even if you did I couldn't tell the difference ). The fire effect you could see every fire animation you used. But I will give you credit on one thing at least you got the hamsters done right. The story was a bit interesting but the comedy wasn't really that great.

A has-been actor best known for playing the title character in the 1980s detective series "Mindhorn" must work with the police when a serial killer says that he will only speak with Detective Mindhorn, whom he believes to be a real person.
An interview with Richard Thorncroft, filmed during his time playing TV detective Mindhorn, has been discovered as a movie about the actor is released in the UK.
The license plate on the Mindhorn Car is "S33 TRU", which is read as "See True", a play on Mindhorn's line of "It's Truth Time!"
Richard Thorncroft:
The Benedict Cumberbatch Backlash has begun.
The opening sequence is set in 1989, when "Mindhorn" the TV show is being made. The rest of the film is then set "25 years later" which would be 2014. However, when Thorncroft is caught on CCTV running through the streets drunk, the time stamp on the video clearly shows 2016. However, as stated the TV show "Mindhorn" ran for three years/seasons. As such, 2016 would be 25 years after the TV show's end.
A song by "Richard Thorncroft" plays over the closing credits. After the credits, the music video for the same song plays.

Nathu-la, May 11: Trade should make it across Nathu-la before the snow seals the ancient Silk Route this winter.
September has been set as the tentative date for the reopening of trade between India and China after almost 43 years along Nathu-la in Sikkim, according to the high-powered inter-ministerial team on a recce of the border outpost.
While a decision on the date awaits finalisation, the team, led by additional secretary of national security council S.D. Pradhan and joint secretary in the Union home ministry H.S. Brahma, today pointed out to the Sikkim government that they were hoping for marginal 'localised' trading activity to begin during the initial phase of the reopening of the trade route.
'Localised' trade means goods can be exchanged only for local consumption within Sikkim and the areas in close proximity to the mart that has been identified for business across the India-China border.
It has been proposed that initial trading be permitted only for residents of Sikkim, a policy likely to be changed later.
At a meeting held with the central team members this evening, officials of the Pawan Chamling government are said to have committed themselves to meeting the September deadline. The state government will also hand over a detailed project report to the Centre by mid-June.
This is the first visit of a high-level team since an agreement on reopening of the famed trade route was reached in 2003 between former Prime Minister A.B. Vajpayee and Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao.
Early this morning, the team flew to Nathu-la in a BSF chopper and identified Sherathang village, some 7 km before Nathu-la in east Sikkim, as the trade hub on this side of the border. Rinchingang, around 8 km from the international border, is the site of the mart on the Chinese side.
This means that initial trading will be carried out within a 15-km stretch between the two countries. The goods trucks will be escorted by the Indo-Tibetan Border Police throughout the 7-km stretch to Sherathang. Trade across the border will, however, have to close before sunset.
The state public works (roads & bridges) department has been identified as the nodal agency for infrastructure development while the state commerce and industries department is the nodal agency for the entire border trade.
The team also inspected sites where necessary infrastructure like customs and immigration offices, money exchanges and transport and communication centres will come up.

Second U.S. aid worker stricken with Ebola to arrive home for treatment on Tuesday
A second American health worker suffering from Ebola is due to fly from Liberia's capital Monrovia to the United States overnight on Monday, the country's information minister said.
"The airport authorities tell me it will be Monday night or very early on Tuesday at around 1 am," Lewis Brown told Reuters by telephone on Sunday.
Nancy Writebol, a missionary working for U.S. charity Samaritan's Purse, is due to travel on the same plane that transported her colleague Dr. Kent Brantly from Liberia on Saturday, Brown added.
The plane is equipped to carry just one patient at a time.

ARLINGTON, Texas - The Mets haven't requested permission to speak with Rangers general manager Jon Daniels about their front-office opening, but even if they do, Nolan Ryan doesn't seem the least bit worried about losing him to the team Daniels grew up rooting for.
"I really would be shocked if he didn't stay with us," Ryan said Friday.
Ryan, the Rangers' president since 2008, credited Daniels with turning around the Rangers in five years and building a championship contender, calling him "one of the key people in this organization."
The Hall of Famer also acknowledged that Daniels has an out in his contract after the season and likely will have options to explore elsewhere if he wants them, but Ryan made it clear he doesn't expect the Queens native to go anywhere. "Obviously, we want to retain him," Ryan said. "There's been speculation about him getting other opportunities, but I think we feel pretty comfortable that this is his organization and these are his people, and that it's an exciting time to be associated with the Texas Rangers."
Ryan certainly knows that feeling. And anyone who saw the highlights of him celebrating in his seat after the Rangers earned the franchise's first postseason series victory Tuesday certainly can attest to just how much he seems to be enjoying his role atop this organization.
In that role, Ryan is anything but a spectator, at least until game time. As team president, he oversees the entire organization and has taken an active role in everything from player development to the decision to stand by manager Ron Washington amid his positive cocaine test a year ago. He also became a part-owner of the club during the summer.
"He's an icon," Washington said. "He's put a lot of presence on our pitching staff as far as the mind-set of going out there and keeping the ball as long as you can, not going out there with looking over your shoulder, looking for help. Take care of business yourself."
Added Josh Hamilton, who hit a three-run homer off CC Sabathia in the first inning Friday night, "Obviously, you know him as a player and a huge competitor, somebody who expected to win. As team president, he's come in and carried that over. He knows what type of players it's going to take to win.''
A member of the 1969 Mets, Ryan may have raised a few eyebrows during his news conference by saying he sees a lot of similarities between that club and this Rangers team. Ryan said the Rangers, like those Mets, are a team of mostly young, inexperienced players who have gained confidence this season.
"Every time you think that the backs were against the wall and it looked like the wheels were going to come off of it, they did it themselves," Ryan said. "They found it within themselves to come back and turn things around, and I'm really proud of that, and the maturity that I've seen develop in this ballclub."

It is time to pick up the story of the Directory table where we left it. I started this blog entry by going back and re-reading that which I had already written. The first paragraph of part 1 surprised me because it reminded me how long I've been operating under frustration. Then when I re-read part 4, I realized I left things hanging with a promise of good things to come. I can imagine you all are rather frustrated with me. <smile/>
So, let's dig into the DefaultDir column of the Directory table (we'll come back for TARGETDIR/SourceDir another day). In our previous examples, DefaultDir had simple content in it like "One" or "Two" or "ThreeToo". We saw that that content was stuck together to create directories like "SourceDir\One\Two\ThreeTwo\". If this doesn't seem familiar then go back and read part 4. We're going to do something a bit more complicated.
If you remember from part 1, one of the things I found most confusing was the dot, colon, and pipe characters that appeared in the DefaultDir column sometimes. Let's explain those away. First, we need some data. Here is a Directory table modified from our example in part 4.
Directory Directory_Parent DefaultDirs
s72 S72 l255
Directory Directory
TARGETDIR SourceDir
FirstFolder TARGETDIR One
NoopFolder FirstFolder .
SecondFolder NoopFolder Two:.
ThirdFolder SecondFolder Three|The Three Directory
SecondThirdFolder SecondFolder ThreeToo|ThreeAsWell:32|Three Too
Remember, the first three lines of the IDT file describe the structure and name of the table. And as always we find the TARGETDIR as the root of the Directory structure (note the lack of a Directory_Parent). The "FirstFolder" is a simple Directory row that defines a directory named "One". Finally, at the "NoopFolder" we hit our first interesting character, the dot.
The dot - When the DefaultDir column contains a single dot (aka: period) the row does not define another directory. Essentially, the row is a "no operation" or a "no-op" (thus the name NoopFolder). In our example, this is pretty pointless because it means the NoopFolder is equivalent to the FirstFolder. As we'll see in a second, there are uses for the dot (especially in Merge Modules, which I won't be covering tonight).
Moving on, we can see in the "SecondFolder" uses not only the dot again (I promised we'd see it again soon) but the colon.
The colon - When the DefaultDir column contains a colon (and it can contain only one) the left-side of the colon specifies the target name and the right-side of the colon specifies the source name. Let's break those terms down. The target name is the name of the directory that will get created during installation on user's machine. The source name is the name of the directory on the source media (like CD or network share). For those of you that always cab up your files and/or never create administrative images the source name may seem unnecessary. However, consider the case that you have a setup.exe in the root of your installation that wants to read a file that also gets installed (maybe a splash screen graphic for both your setup and application). With the colon you can put that file in a different directory on the media from the directory the file gets installed to normally. With our example data above, the SecondFolder says the "Two" directory will exist in the "One" directory when installed but on the CD (or network share) there is no "Two" directory and all files will be found in the "One" directory. Is this useful? Definitely... sometimes. <smile/>
We hit our third special character by looking at the "ThirdFolder" row, the pipe (aka: vertical bar).
The pipe - When the DefaultDir column contains a pipe (and it can contain only one per side of the colon) the left-side of the pipe defines the short name and the right-side of the pipe defines the long name. After working with paths in the Windows Installer for a while, you'll quickly realize that the Windows Installer requires short names (aka: DOS names or 8.3 names) for all files and directories. This is annoying but fact. You'll notice in all of my examples (until now) that I was very careful to make sure the directory names never had more than 8 characters (and no spaces): One, Two, Three, ThreeTwo. When I wanted to define a directory with more than 8.3 characters or spaces I had to create a short name then a pipe and then use my long name.
Note: I highly recommend that you do not use the same pattern the file system uses to create short names (the LONGNA~1, syntax). There are cases that can occur where your made-up name will collide with a created short name. I've had more than three people tell me stories about how customers were reporting very bizarre install issues that turned out to be short name collisions. And, yes, I know that several major packaging vendors will create short names like "PROGRA~1" but it is still not a good idea (the WiX toolset actually warns about names like that).
Finally, the "SecondThirdFolder" row shows how you can put it all together. Hopefully, by now you can decipher the DefaultDir column of the Directory table yourself. Just in case there are still questions, I'll provide the target layout short, target layout long, the source layout short and the source layout long for our example data at the top.
Target layout (short)
FirstFolder = TARGETDIR\One\
NoopFolder = TARGETDIR\One\
SecondFolder = TARGETDIR\One\Two\
ThirdFolder = TARGETDIR\One\Two\Three\
SecondThirdFolder = TARGETDIR\One\Two\ThreeToo\
Target layout (long)
FirstFolder = TARGETDIR\One\
NoopFolder = TARGETDIR\One\
SecondFolder = TARGETDIR\One\Two\
ThirdFolder = TARGETDIR\One\Two\The Three Directory\
SecondThirdFolder = TARGETDIR\One\Two\ThreeAsWell\
Source layout (short)
FirstFolder = SourceDir\One\
NoopFolder = SourceDir\One\
SecondFolder = SourceDir\One\
ThirdFolder = SourceDir\One\Three\
SecondThirdFolder = SourceDir\One\32\
Source layout (long)
FirstFolder = SourceDir\One\
NoopFolder = SourceDir\One\
SecondFolder = SourceDir\One\
ThirdFolder = SourceDir\One\The Three Directory\
SecondThirdFolder = SourceDir\One\Three Too\
Mastering the dot, colon and pipe characters is the first key to deciphering the Directory table. To this day, I remember the ten minutes that Ben Chamberlain spent walking me through examples much like the one above. So much of the Directory table suddenly made sense. Hopefully, the discussion and examples above help unlock some of the secrets for you as well. Next time, we'll look at the power of the standard directories.
Tomorrow (or Sunday) I'm going to once again take a break from this thread and announce a very cool, very new addition to the WiX toolset.

A: I have here our price sheet on a F.O.B. basis. The prices are given without engagement.
B: Good, if you'll excuse me, I'll go over the sheet right now.
A: Take your time.
B: I can tell you at a glance that your prices are much too high.
A: I'm surprised to hear you say so. You know that the cost of pro- duction has been skyrocketing in recent years.
B: We only ask that your prices be comparable to others. That's reasonable, isn't it?
A: Well, to get the business done, we can consider making some concessions in our price. But first, you'll have to give me an idea of the quantity you wish to order from us, so that we may adjust our prices accordingly.
-- 这是我们船上交货价的价目单。所报价格没有约束力。
-- 很好。如果可以,我马上把价目单看一遍。
-- 请便。
-- 我一看这份价目单就知道你们的价格太高了。
-- 你这么说我很吃惊。你知道近年来生产成本迅速上涨。
-- 我们只要求你方的价格能和别人差不多就行了。这个要求很合理,对不对?
-- 好吧,为了成交,我们可以考虑作些让步,不过要请你先说明大概要订购多少,以便我们对价格作相应的调整。
B: The size of our order depends greatly on the prices. Let's settle that matter first.
A: Well, as I've said, if your order is large enough, we're ready to reduce our prices by 2 percent.
B: When I say your prices are much too high, I don't mean they are higher merely by 2 or 3 percent.
A: How much do you mean then? Can you give me a rough idea?
B: To have this business concluded, I should say a reduction of least 10 percent would help.
A: Impossible. How can you expect us to make a reduction to that extent?
B: I think you are as well - inf.mp3ed as I am about the market for chemical fertilizers. It's unnecessary for me to point out that sup- ply exceeds demand at present and that this situation is apt to continue for a long time yet. May I suggest that you call your home office and see what they have to say?
A: Very well, I will.

"Wat is jouw meest memorabele reisherinnering uit je kindertijd?" Dat vroeg ik meer dan 50 reisbloggers en andere reisgekken. Dit zijn hun persoonlijke verhalen en foto's.
Vandaag interview ik Carole van Travels with Carole!
Hi Carole, do you remember the first time you went travelling?
The first recollection I have of traveling is to San Diego to see relatives in our old-time car with comfy stuffed seats and no seat belts. I was in the back seat with my sister.
The most fun thing was when my mom would give me a gift of a handmade outfit for my doll. I loved my Toni Doll (named for a popular permanent brand at the time). I remember us driving through Laguna Beach and seeing the waving old man who was the official town greeter.
Did your parents travel much before you were born?
My dad was in the Marines in WWII and did plenty of boat travel during the war. My mom traveled from Gresham, Oregon, to San Diego, California to work as a Rosie the Riveter.
When my mom was pregnant with me, they had settled in San Francisco, and when I was a few months old they took a cross-country trip in their car, to Poughkeepsie, New York, where my dad was from.
What was your favourite holiday destination as a child, a teenager and an adult?
I enjoyed going camping at the beach and in the mountains. We did more trips to Big Bear area but also branched out to Yosemite. I remember getting very sick at Yosemite with an earache which I just kind of suffered through. It cut short our trip. Occasionally we would stay in a motel and that was extra fun.
As a teenager, it was more camping. I think the best trip was one we took when I was about 16 and we camped next to another family who had a teenage boy my age. It was all just friendship, but quite exciting.
As an adult my most exciting trip was my first visit to Europe. I fell in love with London and Hampstead in particular, and every time I return to London (and it has been back many times) I always make a trip out to Hampstead.
Can you tell me what your memory is with this image?
This photo was taken of me with my family in the Big Bear mountains area of Southern California. That's me on the far left. We often went camping in that area, specifically as I recall, at Green Lake.
Can you remember a specific travel item/gadget you used to take on a trip as a child?
My Toni Doll. Now I don't have anything like her that I always take along.
Did the way you travelled as a child changed much when you grew up?
Yes. My family had very little money, so as a child we traveled mostly locally and by car. When I grew up, I continued to take local car trips but added in a LOT of flying.
I definitely like the change, because I can see so much more. I still retain the simplicity and joy of just getting in my car for local travel, but do miss the slower pace my mom and dad enjoyed, and I do enjoy stopping a restaurants to eat instead of always picnicking on homemade sandwiches (though my mom's sandwiches were really good and at times I really do miss them).
Finally: What is your best tip for making a trip memorable?
One of the best ways to make a trip memorable is to write about it. I used to keep a journal about each BIG trip and paste in it the various ticket stubs and hotel brochures that I collected along the way. Nowadays I use those items to help with my articles, but I no longer save them.

An excellent point. I imagine that it would also be permissible to repackage the .orig.tar.gz file so that it is gone from there as well.? orig.tar.gz should be as it says - the original.
not necessarily. It must be the original, but it must not be pristine. One reason could be to remove autotools dependencies, another could be to remove files which would otherwise be removed by the "clean" target and would end up in a huge diff.gz. IMHO this such things should of course be reported to upstream and hopefully be fixed in the next upstream version.

Unanswered: Olap DB2 server from essbase storage
I'm thinking of moving my storage from essbase 6.5.3 to Olap DB2 server as my back end.
I just wondered how easy and smooth the migration is likley to be and if any of my cubes will need re-engineering. ?
appriciate your comments

I work with IBM DB2 OLAP server. According to the IBM staff, the two OLAP servers (IBM and Hyperion) are very similar. So I don't think you will need re-engineering.
If you would like to migrate to IBM DB2 OLAP Server v8.1 then you will probably need the fixpack 2 (this fixpack makes upgrate to essbase 6.5.3 level). See more details on DB2 OLAP Server support page http://www-3.ibm.com/software/data/d.../fixpacks.html
Hope this helps,

LXer: Connect the dots: Valves Big Picture could be a Linux game console
Published at LXer:
The Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Nintendo Wii are nearing their end. As powerful as they have been in the living room, gamers want more. They want better graphics, new user experiences, and more mobility, as much as those things can be at odds with one another. A new wave of game consoles is rising to meet some of those challenges, but perhaps not all: the Nintendo Wii U doesnt seem to be that much more powerful than an Xbox 360, and the next Xbox and PlayStation are rumored to use what amounts to mid-range PC hardware in order to save costs.

I launched The Alpine Start in January 2013 as a way to answer all my friends' questions about gear. At the time, I was working in a gear shop and went through an alarming amount of gear in order to find the 'perfect' kit for me, so naturally everybody around asked me for feedback. Those are the humble beginnings of TAS, and since then it has grown into the site you're visiting now. I hope you enjoy your stay and find the information useful!
As a climber, I started bouldering on the coast of Nova Scotia back in 2002 or so. I gradually picked up sport and trad, but only wholly launched myself into climbing when I moved to Canmore, AB, in late 2009. I climbed my first frozen waterfall in 2010, my first big north face in 2013 and, also in 2013, entered my first ice/mixed comp. Ice and mixed have taken over my winters, and I'm lucky to be surrounded by some of the best routes in the world.

Another day and time the outcome may have been different because they are both stunningly strong fighters, but it was obvious that there was bad blood and that Trade Gothic had just kicked Gotham's ass.
