The bulletin board wars are about to begin. It began in the first grade hallway. Legend has it that those over achieving first grade teachers stayed late into the night perfecting their bulletin artwork. The next morning everyone arrived to a visual extravaganza that set the jealousy of other grade levels aflame.
At our school each classroom teacher has a bulletin board in the hallway and it is the expectation of our administration that we have these boards covered. It used to be enough to put up a mono-color board with a title like, "Welcome to fifth grade." These simple boards could be changed to "Look at our great work!" in September and that was all that was needed for the remainder of the year. Not anymore.
As you walk down the first grade hall you see three dimensional boards leaping off the wall with catchy phrases and pictures that would rival any advertising billboard around. For the longest time we had a pact in the intermediate hallway to keep it simple, but then a fourth grade teacher snapped and put together a block buster board that stopped all passers-by in their tracks. Since my board is right by hers, it just wouldn't do to slap up some paper and go simple. I had to step up my efforts. The resulting work of art had a winding road going off into the sunset. Along the way were billboards that told my fifth grade students what they could expect on their journey through fifth grade. It took over an hour of my precious time, but at least I would be able to save face in our hallway.
Over the course of the year, as one person would change their boards, the rest of us would follow suit. At the battles peek one teacher brought in a toaster and hot glued toast to her board with a title, "The 5th graders are the toast of the town." The students complained about hunger every time they went into the hallway and smelled the toast. That is until the bugs began to find the petrified morsels of food hanging on the wall.
As I begin school next week, one of my first activities will be to unroll some fresh, brightly covered paper and cover my boards. When done I'll have a place to display discipline, word walls, calendar math and student work. I'll also have one board left that I'll reserve for the board of the century. However, I haven't quite figured out what the board of the century looks like just yet. I have one more week for inspiration to hit.
(In the comments below, please tell me or show me some of your great bulletin board ideas. Also, let me know if your school has similar board wars.)

This is a perfectly restored example of a 1966 Chevrolet II Nova SS in Regal Red (code RR) with matching red vinyl interior. This car is particularly special as it is equipped with the L79 option - a Corvette 327 cubic inch V8 with 350 horsepower paired with a Munchie M-21 4-speed transmission. Only 200 cars with this option were built!
Nova was introduced in 1962 with the Nova SS becoming a model option in 1963. For 1964 to 1967 it became a separate series.
1966 saw the introduction of a brand-new body with taller fenders that arched over the headlamps. Taillamps were now vertical with the back-up lens at the bottom.
The Nova SS was identified by the body sill moldings, SS grille emblem, "Super Sport" script on the rear fenders, front and rear wheel opening moldings, full-width rear deck panel with Chevy II nameplate and SS badge. You would also find an SS badge of the glovebox door.
With the L79 option, the Nova SS now qualified for true muscle car status.
Some available Chevy II options in 1966
Air conditioning (V8 only)
Power steering
Power brakes
Electric clock
Push-button AM radio
AM/FM radio
The Chevy II had a wheelbase of 110", an overall length of 183" and width of 71.3".
Chevrolet built 10,100 Nova SS 2-door hardtop cars (style number 11737) for the 1966 model year at a base price of $2,430. The L79 327 V8 Turbo-Fire option was $198 with 4-speed manual transmission costing a further $475. Also fitted is a tinted windshield at $21.
This car is currently for sale on eBay. (follow the link for even more photos)

Unanswered: Access 2010/Sharepoint Relationships
Am I correct in thinking that a relationship cannot be established between two tables if the linking field is not formatted as a lookup in the table?
Now I've been reading you don't want lookups at the table level but to use comboboxes instead. So how do I use lookups to make an Access Database web compatible but not use lookups at table level?

Having experienced this pain. Let me impart my small view of the world regarding Acces and SharePoint.
First: If you go to your Main View or rather record set view Select / Actions / Open with MS Access, it creates one or more tables within MS Access. One table is the Main Data Table, the other tables maybe linked tables that SharePoint relies upon for example a User's Table. Save the new Database to My Documents or a Share drive somewhere.
Re-Open the database right click and open the main data table in design view. Go to the Look Up Tab at the bottom and you will notice that it is a straight forward look up and the row source are the values taken from the "Combo Box" in SharePoint. Sadly, Access inherits the properties of SharePoint which lends itself to a non normalized database. The table name tends to be an alias that includes spaces in the name, also the fields are also not normalized and have spaces in it for example Last Name, First Name instead of a best practice of "Last_Name".
I thought initially that MS Access was the "dog" wagging the "tail", the tail being SharePoint. But it is exactly opposite.
You can create new views and datasets from Access into SharePoint and then link them to get to a more normalized state. This may in fact reverse the batting order of the "Dog and Tail wagging". But remember, you are going from a desktop application to a server based application.
The bottom line, is there is some inheritance issues from SharePoint to Access that cause grief that eventually make you take the long way around with respect creating VB scripts to automate some functions in Access.
Re-reading your post, the answer to your question is that SharePoint as an Enterprise Application should be your original source of record. You create the "lookups" in Settings / List Settings / Column. Define the new column (***caution****) you have the ability to select multi-value columns. NOT a best practice. Single value select only is the best option. See above inheritance issues. Also in SharePoint, unless you do some fancy wrangling, the Text Fields have a bad quirk in that you can not search or sort on Multi-line text. So unless your end user is writing a novel, keep it to single line text and you can get the customized filter for that field when you are looking for a value in a text field in a record such as = Contains "Texas".

Television: Quirky RTÉ hotel show well worth checking into
All that was missing from the first instalment of The Gleneagle (RTÉ1) was Paddy O'Gorman and his dog - which made a change from last year's dreary series on the Shelbourne, where all that was missing was any reason why the viewer should be bothered watching.
I mention O'Gorman because this opening episode evinced the same interest in human quirkiness that's always been a trademark of RTÉ's roving reporter, whose usual seasonal wanderings around Ireland haven't so far enlivened this year's dreary summer schedules.
The show also reminded me of the excellent BBC series, Inside Claridge's, though instead of that posh London establishment we were presented with an unpretentious (and architecturally quite unlovable) Killarney hotel that cheerfully caters to the masses.
I was there in 2000 to review a raucous Wolfe Tones concert for this newspaper, but the hotel has also attracted adoring fans of Joe Dolan, Dickie Rock, Brendan Bowyer and Johnny Logan - a meeting with the latter causing entertainment manager Fiona to declare herself "starstruck" and to deem the encounter the highlight of her 12 years with the Gleneagle.
She was a genial presence in this fly-on-the-wall film, as indeed were most of the staff, and I would guess that the Gleneagle was chosen precisely for that reason - there were no airs and graces about either the owners or the workers in this family-run local enterprise.
The guests were good value, too, not least those attending an annual reunion of couples who years earlier had met each other at the Lisdoonvarna matchmaking shenanigans.
And the reunion weekend's promise of old-style dancing had also attracted three elderly women from New Jersey, one of whom declared that "when you get to a certain age, most of the men are dead", and it also brought along some elderly Irishmen in search of a permanent companion, one of them offering as bait the lure of both an English and an Irish pension.
Whether Edel O'Brien's affectionate and occasionally mischievous approach to staff and guests will keep viewers watching for six weeks remains to be seen, but this episode was an intriguing and likeable start.
Also intriguing was Man on Bridge (RTÉ1), a film about street photographer Arthur Fields that I and most other reviewers missed when it was first shown last December.
This concerned the son of Ukrainian parents who was born Abraham Feldman in the Dublin of 1901 but who changed his name when embarking on the career that was to make him one of the most familiar sights on O'Connell Bridge for over 50 years.
As it happened, I had my picture taken by him as a child with my mother and later with my first girlfriend, and so did hundreds of thousands of other Dubliners and visitors to our capital city.
From the reminiscences of his sons and granddaughters, he was a complex and distinctly odd man but the visual legacy he left behind, some of it now collected in a book, was an extraordinary contribution to social history - much like the photos of Father Browne or of American-based nanny Vivian Maier that were discovered long after her death.
I missed the first instalment of Joanna Lumley's Trans-Siberian Adventure (UTV Ireland) but was greatly taken by the second in this three-part series. Indeed, if we must have celebrities presenting travel programmes, let them try to emulate Lumley, who seems genuinely engrossed by what she's experiencing and also brings grace, courtesy and a quietly sardonic intelligence to her encounters. A young Siberian teacher of English confessed her reverence for Putin's authority and physical "strength", leading Lumley to remark "Well, each to their own" - though not to the adoring woman, which would have been impolite.
And, indeed, her easy charm and impeccable manners (an almost whispered "Thank you so much" was a recurrent phrase) got people to respond to her - though not some Siberian customs officers who searched her train cabin and whom she thought quite "menacing".
However, most of this week's instalment took place in the mysterious and remote Mongolia and was so absorbing that I immediately wanted to go there - which is the mark of an excellent travel show.
Lucy Worsley is another distinctive, and currently much favoured, presenter of factual shows, though some may find her head-girl archness and her lisping delivery somewhat hard to take. These qualities/defects were to the fore in Cake Bakers and Trouble Makers (BBC2) in which she celebrated the centenary of the Women's Institute, an organisation notable both for its radical origins and its middle-England prissiness.
Channel 4's new reality series, Lookalikes (Channel 4), features a cast whose only claim to distinctiveness is that they resemble famous people, which is quite sad really.
And some of them don't even look like the celebrities they're imitating. Indeed, Andy, who runs the Lookalike Talent Agency, presents himself as David Beckham without persuading you of any real similarity to the former footballer.

Review: Mozart tribute a feast of musical delights
Classical: Freiburg Baroque Orchestra, National Concert Hall
On its first visit here, and directed from its leader's chair by Gottfried von der Goltz, the Freiburg Baroque Orchestra may be relatively small in size, but is decidedly large in quality.
Although devoted to Mozart, there is an air of novelty in its programme in the NCH's International Series this week.
With unusual planning, Mozart's Linz Symphony occupies Part I, but visiting baritone Christian Gerhaher inserts arias between the movements.
To an extent this stifles the Symphony's flow, but then Mozart had little compunction about doing something similar in his time and, with musicianship of exceptional standard, there is really little harm done here.
Part II brings a second soloist, clarinettist Lorenzo Coppola who is heard to ecstatic effect in Mozart's Concerto. The innovation here is his clarinette d'amour, made in Paris in 1998 and is a copy of an instrument for which Mozart wrote his Concerto.
Longer than the regular clarinet, it produces more notes in its lower register and offers greater contrast in its upper one. In an introduction, Sig Coppola explains that, with its clear personal sound, this instrument becomes highly theatrical.
Indeed it does, but to this must be added the haunting beauty of Coppola's interpretation. A wealth of velvety tone and seamless phrasing mingles with nimble fingering and extraordinary breath control. The result is magical in its ethereal sensitivity.
Elsewhere in this feast of musical delights, Christian Gerhaher shows the command of his incisive characterisations in several Mozart arias with Don Giovanni pitted against Leporello and Count Almaviva vying with Figaro.
The latter's Non più andrai has mocking military panache, while Almaviva's vengeful Vedrò mentr'io sospiro crackles with fire and brimstone. On the other hand, Giovanni's encore Serenade, with bewitching mandolin accompaniment, dispels the libertine's charms with beguiling flair.

Good looking guys may have an advantage at auditions for season 3 of The X Factor.
"Basically, if you're a male with at least one leg, you've got a really good chance of going through with these three," Simon Cowell says of his new panel, which includes returning judge Demi Lovato and new additions Kelly Rowland and Paulina Rubio.
Cowell's female costars looked friendly and united on stage, taking photos together and chatting when the cameras stopped rolling during auditions at Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Uniondale, N.Y., on Thursday.
"It's a lot of fun being on a panel with two other women," Lovato, 20, says. "It's kind of like a bachelorette party when there's a cute guy that walks on stage. We're all on one side like, 'He's so cute!' and [Simon]'s [has] his arms crossed all mad and jealous."
Case in point: the women banded together behind the first performer of the day, an attractive personal trainer who sang Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On." Cowell found the performance lackluster but the women were thrilled with the contestant, ogling him before and after his song and even asking to see his abs.
"We're having so much fun," says Rubio, 42, who's been affectionately nicknamed "Pau Pau" by Lovato. "And on top of everything else, we're discovering great talent."
RELATED: Demi Lovato Doesn't Need to Be Awake to Get a Manicure
Jokes and disagreements aside, Cowell is happy with The X Factor's new vibe. "These shows have lacked warmth, focus. It's become about judges arguing and this and that," he said. "Where these girls can be fantastic is when they are totally focused on the contestant. So we're in a different world right now – this has been a good thing."
Still, some things never change: "It's three women up here and we re supposed to be the divas," Rowland, 32, says, "but [Simon] is a diva."

How I Saved (One Tiny Island In) Canada From Wildfire
Last week, I took a trip up to northern Saskatchewan, to the edge of the boreal forest. It's an area very close to what locals call the bush. I'd come to camp with family and friends at Emma Lake, but when we arrived we discovered that we were deep inside one of the biggest wildfire outbreaks in years.

You have no discounts. Click here to get some.
went 1-2-1 overall last night and 1-1 in top plays. Lets get it back today. I will be back a bit later with writeups on my top plays, plus I will be adding more plays to may card as the day goes on. Really hoping I don't lose power today, but if ya don't hear from me the rest of the day you'll know why. LOL
No NBA or Hockey today
Pittsburgh/ Cincinnati Over 123: (Added) Sure both teams play excellent defense, but I also se this as a physical game that could lead to allot FT's, plus it should be a close game, which should also lead to hat late game FT battle. Hell we may even see OT. The Pitt offense has picked it up of late, averaging 68.6 ppg in their last 5 games and they average 63.4 ppg on the road, so I do expect them to hit 60+ in this one, even though Cincy allows 57.8 ppg at home. The Bearcats offense has had no troubles scoring at home, where they average 74.6 ppg and I also expect them to hit the 60's as well even though Pitt allows just 57.6 ppg on the road. Both teams are in the middle of the pack in terms of Tempo in Big East games, so I don't expect an all out slow down pace here. I feel the offenses will have a good showing and that will will get plenty of FT's throughout, which should give us around the 132 points that Cincy home games have averaged this year.
Kansas -3.5 over OKLAHOMA: When a coach comes out and says that this is the worst team they have ever put on the court, you can expect the players to respond with a good showing in this one. This is really a nice spot for them to get back on track as the Sooners haven't beaten them since 2005, with Kansas winning each of the last 9 in this series by at least 9 points. Oklahoma had a nice start to their big 12 season, but have faltered of late losing 4 of their last 6 conference games, including the last 2. Kansas is still one of the best teams in the country and they will figure this out. They have dominated this series and are playing a Sooner squad that may be running out of gas. Perfect spot for Kansas to get back on track with a big double digit win here.
North Carolina +7.5 over MIAMI: Sure Miami has a 10-0 home mark and they won by 27 over Duke on this floor, but the Heels are starting to figure things out and they have revenge on their minds for an earlier home loss to the Canes. The Heels are in high gear on offense right now as they have averaged 80.6 ppg in their last 5 games. I feel it will be that offense that will keep it close here. Miami has averaged 77 ppg in their last 5 games, but they are really not an explosive team and won't come up with enough points to win all that easily. The Heels have been at or near the top of the ACC for many years and are just not ready to pass the torch. They will find a way to keep it close, or maybe even pull the upset.
Texas/ Oklahoma State Over 125: The Longhorns have had their problems scoring this year, but they still average 65.5 ppg at home and they will be facing an OSU squad that has allowed 75 ppg on the road this year, including 73.5 ppg in their Big 12 road games. The Longhorns should have a good showing offensively in this one. On defense Texas has been solid at home, where they have allowed 52.9 ppg. but the Cowboys do average 69 ppg on the road and they have put up 73.2 ppg in their last 5 games overall. The Cowboys did put up 85 on a very good Kansas defense and should be good for at least the mid 60's in this one, which is also about how much I expect from the Longhorns. Neither team really slows the pace as Texas is 150th in tempo, while OSU is 120th and that has me easily expecting at least 130 points out of these teams.
Texas A&M/ Georgia Over 115: (Added) Georgia home games have averaged 121.3 ppg on the year and i expect us to get at least that in this one. The Bulldogs average 61.8 ppg at home, while the Aggies have scored 62.2 ppg on the road this year. Pretty good defensive teams, but Still the Aggies have allowed 61.2 ppg in their last 5 games, while Georgia has allowed 59.5 ppg at home. Yes both teams play a slow down pace, but the offense's seem to be paying better of late and that should give ups 120+ points in this one.
Creighton/ Illinois State Under 149: (Added) The Bluejays are known for their offense, but this is a good defensive team that allows just 62.3 ppg in their home floor. Illinois State's offense is rolling right now, but playing Drake's, Southern Illinois' and Bradley's defense in their last 3 games can make a teams offense look good. Illinois state averaged 88 ppg in those three games, while putting up just 64.2 ppg in their previous 7 games. The Redbirds have struggled some on defense in those three games (72 ppg), but in their prior 7 games they had allowed 66.3 ppg. Creighton does average 81.4 ppg at home, but they are not a true uptempo as they are 175th in tempo on the year. They just shoot the ball really well, but ISU allows just 42.9% shooting on the year, including just 40.9% in their last 5 games. I look for this one to put up 140 at the most.

A SIGN language expert at Scotland's national school for deaf children has been told he will "never work with children again" after he was found guilty of groping a 16-year-old boy during a birthday party.
Billy Docherty, a communication support worker at Donaldson's School in Linlithgow, assaulted the boy outside the teenager's parents' house while he waited for a taxi.
The pair had been at a nearby venue, then travelled together, with the victim's family, to the property in Falkirk.

Today I was trying to get ready for Christmas. I know, it's March. It's ok, I like to be ready in advance. lol I have a whole series on my You Tube channel called Christmas Prep with OHCC and I try to do things throughout the year to prepare for the holidays. That way you feel less stressed the closer the holidays come because you're already prepared! It's a good feeling. If you enjoy videos, I have a semi process video on how I made these cards.
Just click:
I used a Recollections stamp set that I purchased last year for these cards. It's that iconic red pick up that is so trendy right now. I decided to make three holiday cards with it, but then wanted to mix it up a bit and use that same stamp set for cards for spring. Just by changing the colors and the contents of the pick up bed, you can change the look of your card! Easy peasy!
Holiday truck filled with gifts and a tree:
Spring time card by making the truck pink and filling the truck bed with sparkling macaroons!
Have a great day!

He's starred in the TV series Love My Way, and been on your cinema screen in the films Beneath Hill 60 and I Love You Too.
His name is Brendan Cowell.
Brendan has played Hamlet, a 1916 mining engineer turned soldier, and a guy who can't quite tell his girlfriend that he loves her.
But on The Guestroom today, he'll be playing himself...
Brendan Cowell's bow has many strings: actor, writer, director, and now he's added author.
Brendan has just penned and published his first novel. It's a gritty read that details the world of young men, love, lust and friendship, all set against the background of Cronulla, where he grew up as well.
It's called How It Feels.
You can listen to Brendan here or you can subscribe to our podcast - search for "The Guestroom" or paste http://www.abc.net.au/local/podcasts/guestroom.xml into your podcasting software (eg ITunes or Juice).

There are two types of the silver plated insert: free running insert and screw-locking insert. The silver layer in the surface can protect the insert from being corrode, and can be used as solid lubricants fasteners. Since silver can resist the heat under 1600 Fahrenheit, it can be applied to the fasteners under high temperature to prevent oxidation of bolts and nuts.
Bashan silver plated insert is produced in the material of 321, SY90, and SY750 and other materials, the last two materials are nickle based heat-resistant stainless steel which can bear the heat of 850 C and 650C for long time.

text: This episode of CSI is definitely the best of the season. Seeing the same scene from the point of view of each member of Grissom's team was a very clever idea. It gave the viewer not just a look at the crime scene but a look inside the minds of the team members (Saunders has read one too many detective novels) and that's always a welcome thing. It gives the characters depth and their own identities. I hope to see more of that in future episodes. This episode of CSI definitely hit the bullseye. No doubt about it.

If the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences wants to drive home the fact that they make no longer make any sense to anyone outside the entertainment industry, let them "nominate" "Fahrenheit 9/11" as the "documentary" that it is not, to be considered as the "documentary" that it is not in the "Best Documentary" film category in the 77th Academy Awards, and let them vote on that faux "documentary" and then the rest of us will be at least content to see literary proof that this influence (the Academy itself) in our world's human society has admittedly gone insane. Or doesn't comprehend well the very art form they exist to represent. Either way: insane, at least in application, this context.
Even Moore referred to this footage o' his, long ago, as "op/ed" in nature, but that hasn't stopped the irrational perceptions assigned to Moore and his footage by his ardent, monstrous supporters. I write, "monstrous" in all due respect to those other filmmakers who find Moore and his footage credible, while I do not — "monstrous" in that the abuses that this person is responsible for can only be had from behind a camera because anyone else, any other venue, would never be taken as seriously, nor should. And "monstrous" in this case because I question any filmmaker — who takes him or herself seriously — who would waste any more than two seconds otherwise not laughing about the "documentary" definition now being insisted upon as to "Fahrenheit 9/11." Or about Moore as a "documentarian." This is travesty of Academic proportions — no wonder many people have lost faith in "Hollywood." Because they should, if this is the tip.

Teresa's PAC strikes again. Perhaps the age of counter-culture musicians is now a part of our collective past, since what we now have (following article) are many people, hooked on bait, already reeled in. It's a shame to see Pearl Jam included in the list of the gullibles, but it's also an indication of room for a lot of new music from elsewhere. Disappointed, to write the least, in this list — fine to speak out with individual opinion but not fine to become campaign tin drums, however nice or not nice the warble.

Ask In My Name
The majority of Christians today are not beyond what a disciple ought to have been or to have known before the Cross; and perhaps they would even think it presumption to suppose that they could advance, or that there is any further unfolding of the truth of God's grace
Consider, for instance, the use of the Lord's Prayer (Lu 11), so-called by many believers This disciple's prayer does not clothe the believer with the name of the Lord Jesus What is meant by asking the Father in that Name? It is not just saying "in His name" at the end of a prayer When the Lord Jesus died and rose again, He gave the believer His own standing before the Father; and then to ask the Father in the name of the Lord Jesus is to ask in the consciousness that my Father loves me as He loves His Son; that He has given me the acceptance of the Son Himself before Him, having completely blotted out all my evil, and given me to be made the righteousness of God in Christ: this is asking in His Name
When the believer draws nigh, consciously brought into the Father's presence, this is to ask in that blessed Name of the Lord Jesus There is not a soul using the "Lord's Prayer" as a form, that has a real understanding of what it is to ask the Father in the name of the Lord Jesus They have never entered into that great truth, and perhaps in their very next petition they take the place of miserable sinners, deprecating the wrath of God, and still under the law Is it possible for a believer who knows what it is to stand before the Father as the Lord Jesus is, to be thus systematically in doubt and uncertainty?
That was the case with the Jew, before the Cross But if I am anything at all, I am a Christian And as such my position is in the Lord Jesus before the Father, and there is no condemnation; otherwise there cannot be the spirit of sonship, or the taking the place of priests of God We are made priests to God by virtue of this blessed standing It is on earth that the great testing time comes in The conscience is brought to this — you cannot walk with the Lord Jesus and with the world It is a question of heaven or the world; and the believer is properly one who enters into heavenly thoughts and relationships while walking through this world
While the "Lord's Prayer" always remains of inestimable worth, yet it was given to meet the individual wants of the disciples The further revelation of divine truth modified their condition, and would thus lead into another strain of desires, which, in fact, were not then given expression to The Lord Jesus Himself tells us this "Hitherto ye have asked nothing in my name" What do I gather from that? That one may use the "Lord's Prayer" every day, and never ask anything in the name of the Lord Jesus "Hitherto ye have asked nothing in my name; ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full" (John 16:24)
"At that day ye shall ask in my name" What day does that mean? A future time? No, but the present; the day that the Holy Spirit brought in when He came down from heaven It is this which is connected with that full revelation of truth which is so essential to Christian joy and blessedness, and to the unworldly and heavenly walk of the children of God; and where this is not entered into, the other cannot be
There may be vigor of faith, and personal love to the Lord Jesus, but for all that a person will savor of the world in spirit and religious position till he have entered into this blessed place that the Holy Spirit now gives us of drawing nigh to our Father in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ
Wm Kelly
My sheep hear my voice. I give eternal life to them, and they will never perish; and no one will snatch them out of My hand.

Sound when running a dual screen setup
I like to play Football Manager and have it running on my right hand monitor and on the left one I use Firefox and whatever else Im faffing around with. Now my question is, when Im playing FM and I have a match playing I can only hear the match sounds when the window it is playing in is the selected one. If I click elsewhere, say on the start menu or on a webpage in Firefox the sound stops as FM is no longer the selected window. Im pretty sure that previous versions of Windows didnt do this, is there a way to force the sound to continue to play?

Can you switch monitors? Problem still?

Update audio and video drivers?
|My System Specs

I am currently on my laptop and loaded up the previous version of Football Manager and it does the same thing when alt+tabbing, all sound cuts out as soon as the game isnt the active window. When you think about it its something that you would normally want to happen (the sound cutting out) when you alt+tab out of a game briefly so I can understand why it happens (if its something that is supposed to happen through Windows programming).
To answer your questions, I have messed around with which monitor the game is displayed on and it makes no difference and I have only recently done the drivers as part of a clean install.

For you monitor setup, did you duplicate or extend your displays? Try it the other way.

Will give it a go tomorrow when Im downstairs. Sat in bed and its too cold out of it so there is no way Im getting out just to try it
I have it as extended, doesnt duplicate just make the 2nd screen an exact copy of the first?
|My System Specs

Well, it was a stab. And most people do run extended. I don't understand why taking the focus off the window would stop the sound. After all, you can run media players all day long.

Thats what has me confused.
The only other hits I get when I google this is to do with WoW and the person asking about it is promptly told there is a play in background option in the settings. Unfortunately there isnt in FM. Have even asked on the developers site and not had a response from anyone

The Desert In Focus
Local photographer's eye for nature's beauty earns him international exposure
By KJ Philp, July 2016 Issue.
For most photographers, seeing your work on the pages of National Geographic, a publication that boasts "on-the-ground reporting combined with award-winning photography," means you've made it. That's not quite the case for local photographer Jake DeBruyckere, whose November 2015 Instagram post landed on the back cover of the magazine's April issue.
The photo is, of course, as impressive as the rest of DeBruyckere's work, with one small exception: it was taken in Northern California and not in the Arizona desert, the place the Phoenix native feels so inspired by and so passionately about.
Regardless, it was just the shot that Apple was in search of for its 2016 "Shot on iPhone 6s" World Gallery. And the rest, as they say, is history.
It all started, as DeBruyckere recalls, when he was 2 years old. He took his grandma's camera and snapped a photo of his mother – at least that's what his relatives have told him. He later moved on to taking vacation photos with compact cameras and on his 17th birthday he received his first DSLR camera.
"The photos weren't any good, but it jumpstarted my interest in photography," he said, adding that he's been out of the closet nearly as long as he's been viewing the world through a camera lens.
After graduating from Saguaro High School in Scottsdale, DeBruyckere went on to major in sociology at Arizona State University. But it wasn't until Instagram was catching on within the photography community that he finally got back to capturing the beauty of the desert he calls home.
Putting Arizona on the Map
Fittingly, the third-generation Arizonan's first post was a pic stitch of his ASU graduation on May 2, 2013.
"I started following people I was inspired by [and] from there I learned to create my own style," he said, adding that he used the platform for inspiration from others and also to find and hone his own style.
"Initially, I didn't think I would be successful if I wasn't shooting what the 'cool kids' were shooting," he explained. "I realized that's absolutely ridiculous … living in the desert makes me unique."
To remedy the significant lack of representation of Arizona and the Southwest in his feed at the time, DeBruyckere launched #thedesertisbeautifultoo as a way to encourage other photographers to acknowledge – and shoot – the desert landscape. With nearly 5,000 posts, his hashtag has also served as a tool to connect area photographers and create a sense of community.
"When I travel and experience new places, [and] get out of my normal everyday routine, is when I'm the most creative," he said, admitting he's always "that guy" who's stopping to take photos no matter where he's headed. "I want to do a lot more traveling within Arizona."
While he admits the Superstition Mountains are one of his favorite spots in Arizona to shoot photos, the desert enthusiast said the Grand Canyon and Antelope Canyon are on his to-do list.
"The lighting in the desert is very different from other landscapes," he said. "It's almost magical, especially during golden hour when the sun is setting. That's perfect for me."
According to instagram.com/press, the social media site has more than 400 million accounts that average more than 80 million photos posted per day.
"I don't know if I post to Instagram to be successful, but it is a way to preserve the moment so I can look back," DeBruyckere said. "That's what I love about photography."
While DeBruyckere's photography can be found on a wide variety of social media platforms, he has a specific set of criteria for what he posts to his Instagram as
@jaquib: all his posts are photos shot by him on his iPhone 6s.
"I shoot the things people don't think are worthy of shooting … as simple as possible," he said. "Sometimes [a photo] doesn't have to have a point … it can be whatever you want it to be."
One look at DeBruyckere's work and his distinct style is apparent: nature mixed with a human element in almost-vintage lighting. And, despite their popularity, you wont find any selfies or photos of food here.
"Arizona has some of the most unique and diverse landscapes," he said. "[We] are spoiled by how much we can see just in our state."
Whether it's desolate landscapes that have almost-human elements to them or everyday objects, DeBruyckere's goal is to eliminate distractions in his frames so that it's clear what the focus is.
With 22,300 followers, some would say this 25-year-old has found the winning recipe, but he offers a different sentiment.
"It's not about the number of followers you have, it's about who's following you," he said. "It's people I've looked up to and photographers who are making it in the business recognizing that I'm kind of good at this."
From Apple Headquarters to the Big Apple
Last November, while traveling with a group of photographers, DeBruyckere snapped a sunrise shot of his friend, Samuel Martin, perched a top San Francisco's Mount Davidson, overlooking the coastline.
"I knew it was the perfect photo," he said, "and I had to post it right away."
Within days of the photo being posted, an Apple affiliate scrolled across the photo and contacted DeBruyckere and let him know they were interested in using his photo.
Fast forward "a very long three months," as he put it, and he finds out his photo is popping up around the world in Apple's 2016 "Shot on iPhone 6s" campaign. Most notably was the back cover of the April 2016 of National Geographic and two places in in New York City, which called for DeBruyckere and his boyfriend to take a trip together to the Big Apple to see the photo larger than life – on both a billboard and in a subway tunnel between Times Square and Grand Central Station – in person.
"It's so crazy [and] very surreal," he said. "It still doesn't feel real."
DeBruyckere said he and the other 41 featured photographers are currently "chasing billboards" to see where in the world their photos will appear next.
So far, his photo has been spotted in Australia, Canada, China, India, Italy, Japan, Thailand, and Turkey, which has fueled his ambitions, and provided a solid foundation, for taking his photography further.
"To travel the world as a paid photographer would be the ultimate goal," he said, as long as he returns to Arizona. "Being born and raised here, this is my home. It would be weird to move anywhere else."

Five Tips for Taking Better Photographs on Your Phone
Whether it's your selfie game or enviable vacation photos you're posting this summer, a few pointers from an internationally published local photographer never hurt anyone. So, while we were admiring the work of Jake DeBruyckere, we asked him for a few pointers. Here they are, in no particular order:
• Make the most of your phone's capabilities. "Everyone always has their phone on them, that's all you need," DeBruyckere said. "Tap the screen and use the sun slider to adjust [brightness]. Press and hold the screen to lock exposure and focus. And I always shoot with HDR on."
• Lighting and composition are everything. "The best time of day to shoot is one hour after sunrise and one hour before sunset," he said.
• Follow the rule of thirds. "Use your phone's grid for better composition," he said. "Line up the horizon [with the grid] or position your subject at an intersection. If you do center your subject, have symmetry on the sides."
• Eliminate distractions. "It's OK to slow down to compose your photo," he said. "Take a few at different angles … change the brightness and take another."
• Perspective is key. "Everyday things can be beautiful," he said. "Try looking at things differently and be more aware."
Three Snaps for These Three Apps
While the premise of Apple's "Shot on iPhone 6s" campaign is that the photos produced by the phone's camera app don't require "filters, adjustments or retouching," it goes on to state, "imagine what you can do with a camera this advanced, along with the powerful editing tools built into your iPhone."
So, we asked local photographer and campaign contributor Jake DeBruyckere to tell us his top three apps for photo editing and here's what said:
1. Snapseed | Free |
" … This app brings to your mobile device the power and control of professional photo editing software, previously only available on the desktop …"
2. Enlight | $3.99 |
"Enhance, tweak and decorate your photos to perfection with Enlight's powerful array of tools … "
3. VSCO | Free |
" … Easy-to-use editing tools and a vast range of stylish film-like presets … help make it a must have for absolutely anyone …"

MAX LUCADO hit life right on the nail when he wrote in his book "On Calvary's Hill":
Imagine the scene at the cross. Soldiers huddled in a circle, dice-throwing—casting
lots for the possessions of Christ. Common soldiers witnessing the world's most uncommon
event. To them he is just another criminal; the cross is forgotten.
It makes me think of us. The religious. Those who claim heritage at the cross. All
of us. The strict…the loose…the simple…spirit-filled…evangelical. All of us! We're
not so unlike these soldiers. We too, play games at the foot of the cross. We compete
for members. We scramble for status. Competition. Selfishness. Personal gain. It's
all there. We major in the trivial, we split into little huddles. Another name. Another
doctrine. So close to the cross but so far from the Christ. "May they all be one,"
Jesus prayed. One. Not one in groups of two thousand. One church. One faith. One
Lord. No hierarchies. No traditions. Just Christ.
That is EXACTLY WHY the MATTHEW LUNCHES work so well. They are NOT about YOU. They
are NOT about ME. They ARE about CHRIST… - Graham Ries

My wife and I are in the initial stages of planning a two week trip to the United Kingdom. On our wishlist is seeing London and some of the countryside and Scotland, (Edinburgh?) and also Ireland, maybe Dublin. We are planning on going the first two weeks of August 2012. We were thinking of maybe having two or three home bases and then taking day trips. Not sure about the flying agenda, maybe flying in and out of London to save money? Do you think we can cover this area in two weeks? Any ideas/thoughts?

2 weeks; London, Edinburgh & Dublin?
Report Abuse
Bob2010, We did a very similar trip except that we only wanted 2 days in London since it was not our first time. The trip was London, Salisbury, Stonehenge, Stratford upon Avon, Cotswalds, York and Edinburgh. It sounds like a lot of driving and time traveling, but really it was not. If you care for more details click my name and scroll to the trip report entitled "The Volcano gods smiled...." There may be some ideas there that you could find of interest. There is also a separate TR reviewing B&Bs where we stayed along the way. This trip combined both train and driving and was one of the more successful of our trips in every respect.

to add to the above - no Dublin that time though

"On our wishlist is seeing London and some of the countryside and Scotland, (Edinburgh?) . . . "
Stop there. That is a pretty full 2 weeks already.
A week in London w/ maybe 1 day trip, maybe 2 days somewhere else (the Cotswolds, or York, or the Lake Dist, or anywhere) and 3 days in/around Edinburgh. That plus your travel time will equal 2 weeks. If you mean two weeks 'on the ground' then you are talking about 16 days total (I'd still stick to just the UK)

I agree with all of the above. Save Ireland for another trip, and see more than Dublin
Report Abuse
I agree, if you're going to do Ireland, DON'T limit yourselves to Dublin. Dublin blows. Did a two-week trip to Ireland a couple years ago and roadtripped around the entire northern and western half of the country, then up into actual Northern Ireland. Spent three days in Belfast (decently fun) and two days in Dublin, which sucked. Dublin nowadays is tourist traps and Polish immigrants and that's about it. Rent a car, go to Connemara, most beautiful countryside I've ever seen. And do Ireland in a separate trip or extend your travel plans to three or four weeks.
Report Abuse
I've been to all places you want to go and I think it would be quite difficult to do it all... I recommend: London (my favourite city on Earth), from there you can do a 1-day tour Bath, Stonehedge and Windsor (I'm not a big fan of tours but if you don't have much time, that's the way to go, they leave from Victoria Station but you can get more info with your travel agent), then visit Oxford or Cambridge. If you are coming to Scotland you must visit Edinburgh, it's incredible. The only problem is that August is Festival season and accommodation is much more expensive than usual. I would suggest you have a look at self-catering apartments (www.edinburgh-flats.com), which are, in general, more affordable than hotels.

""Dublin nowadays is tourist traps and Polish immigrants and that's about it.A narrow minded and thoroughly incorrect assessment of a wonderful city."
Rather: a mildly offensive and extreme way of stating a totally indisputable truth.
There are loads of terrific things about Ireland. If you're visiting London and Edinburgh, and have limited time, Dublin is very unlikely to be one of them.
If you've got real business in Dublin, fine: most genealogical visits to Ireland necessitate visiting Dublin, the only place a lot of local records can be accessed, the Chester Beattie Museum has just about Europe's finest manuscript display, and those interested in Ireland's war of independence will find a lot of key monuments.
But otherwise, just a second-rate version of what's in London, Edinburgh and Oxford or Cambridge (except the Guinness tat, which really IS a first-rate version of Guinness tat). Nothing remotely wrong with being a second rate London (there are very few places on earth that could even aspire that high): but you haven't got time to waste.
Ireland's marine coastline (especially in the North and the SW) and many of its gardens are world-beaters, and may not even require going through Dublin airport to get to from SE England or central Scotland.

Wow lannon how old are you, 13? Dublin "blows" and "sucks" ..??
Report Abuse
Iannon is a bit strong in his opinions, but Dublin is not simply not on the same level as Edinburgh.
London is sui generis.
If you're thinking of going to Edinburgh in August, MAKE YOUR ARRANGEMENTS ASAP. Edinburgh triples in size in August because it basically hosts one festival per 10 residents (or so it seems). See here: http://www.edinburghfestivals.co.uk/
Would consider London for 5-6 nights and Scotland for 8-9 with about 1/2 in Edinburgh and 1/2 with a car. If you're flying on United or from the east coast, there are direct flights from Newark to Edinburgh (and Glasgow, I think) so you don't have to go back to London or transfer either Heathrow (flippin' nightmare) or Gatwick on your way out of Albion.
Ireland should be a separate trip because it's more of an itinerant itinerary - the star attraction is the countryside and Ring of Kerry, not its capital.
Report Abuse
Well I happen to find Dublin charming - but in the time you have you just really don't have time to see so many different places.
London, countryside and Edinburgh is already jam packed for two weeks.
I think you either need to leave Ireland for another trip - or choose between Ireland and Scotland,

With accommodation prices to match - B&B owner friends of mine are considering renting the whole of their place to one of the larger acts and disappearing for the whole month. The profit they'll make is the same as their profit for the other 11 months.
The Festival Fringe (just one of the festivals) is the world's largest Arts festival by far and it's an astounding experience.
But if you aren't interested in seeing several shows a day Edinburgh is best avoided in August

A couple of days in Dublin is an exercise used by some some to get bragging rites and an Irish stamp in their Passport. There is Dublin and then there is Ireland (for now at least) and if you want to experience rather than see Ireland you need a couple of weeks and to stay well clear of the tourist traps.
Report Abuse
Thanks for all the replies! Sounds like we might have to rethink Dublin/Ireland, but right now we need to figure out what to do about Edinburgh. We do have to stick with August, but we could rearrange things if there are any less busy windows to visit. One question, is it feasible to stay outside the city if we have to, and drive and/or take public transportation into the city?
Report Abuse
Last time we were out by Edinburgh we stayed at the Premier Inn Musselburgh (got a deal for the weekend). very handy for getting into the city. We have also used the Premier Inn in Falkirk which might be a good option if you plan on exploring around the north side. Stirling is possibly our favourite castle and also take a look at the Wallace Monument. Rabbies do some decent small tours if you fancy letting someone else do the driving,
Report Abuse
Another thought is to stay in Glasgow and daytrip to Edinburgh. It's only an hour by train, and there's lots to see in/from Glasgow also. In either case, I'd book your hotel ASAP. We're going to Edinburgh in September and hotels were filling up then also.
Having pruned Dublin from your trip, you could fly an open jaws into London out of Glasgow -- or into Glasgow out of London. (This is called multi-city on airline websites and should cost about the same as round-trip -- especially as you save the time and expense of backtracking.)
Or you could decide to skip Scotland this time and go to Ireland instead.
Report Abuse
Bob, I think being in Edinburgh in the thick of festival season is an incredible opportunity - not an annoyance.
Go and experience it. You'll be so glad you did. You don't have to decide on shows/tattoos/concerts/etc. until Spring when all the schedules come out and the various tickets go on sale.
Yes, room prices in town will be inflated in August but it is money very well spent for a once in a lifetime opportunity. That said, booking a room for Edinburgh right now is not too soon. By January, it may be too late...
Also - FWIW - I think three countries is way to much for 2 weeks. England and Scotland is WAY more than enough for that time frame even if you left out London and Edinburgh altogether (which at a minimum require 8 and 3 days each respectively, IMHO).

"We do have to stick with August, but we could rearrange things if there are any less busy windows to visit."
No - all of August will be busy-
"One question, is it feasible to stay outside the city if we have to, and drive and/or take public transportation into the city?"
That is a possibility - but don't drive into the city. Take the train.Parking and driving in Edinburgh is pretty bad (horrible actually) but the train station is in the very center of the city. I'd first try to find a place IN the city. If you can't find anything (or anything in your budget) then you can look at places near train lines - Linlithgow, Stirling, Perth, Falkirk, Dunblane, etc.
"You don't have to decide on shows/tattoos/concerts/etc. until Spring when all the schedules come out and the various tickets go on sale."
True re the Festival/Fringe but NOT the Tattoo. It is already on sale and many of the best seats are gone.

A lot of lazy tourists on here who have not explored Dublin properly and got underneath the skin of it to reveal what a great place it really is.
For the record, the following are all excellent options:
- Kilmainham Jail;
- Guinness Storehouse;
- St. Stephen's Green;
- A pub crawl around South William Street and the side streets off Grafton Street.
IMO, anybody who thinks sanitised, boring Edinburgh is a better option than Dublin is just plain wrong...

Hi Ira,
I hope you enjoy 14 Hart as much as we did. Please say hello to James and Angela for us - they are wonderful hosts with a font of knowledge about the city and its history. If there is a Ceilidh going on nearby, be sure to go for awhile, you will not regret the experience. Also, try the vegetarian haggis at the nearby Urban Angel. It is very good (does not taste at all like real haggis). Above all, have a great time!

BTW, when you get to 14 Hart, there is no outward indication that it is a B&B, just the house number. You will walk down a few steps to the entrance. The upper floors are private apartments.

Venezuela is at yet another crisis point. The government of Nicolas Maduro is facing steep opposition from the very people that swept Maduro's predecessor and mentor Hugo Chavez to power nearly 20 years ago. But after years of sharp economic decline it appears that the "revolution's" hold on power is a tenuous as ever.
On the line to explain what is going on in Venezuela is Francisco Toro, editor of the news website Caracas Chronicles. He discusses how the situation reached this crisis point and why there is such high probability of violence. Francisco has been on the show before: last year he explained how Venezuela's economy so sharply and abruptly began a downward spiral. He discusses that again, but also in the context of a new protest movement.
I caught up with Francisco one day before a massive protest was scheduled in Caracas. Things were definitely heating up.
