Cava has been with us just a little over two years now. In that time, we have renegotiated what it means to be a family. We have overcome obstacles and encountered some again and again. But there has been progress. Yet with the progress we have made, we also learn how much further it is to healing in a child who has spent most of his life feeling alone, abandoned, and unloved. Our family has strived to give Cava a home where he can feel at ease, at peace, loved, and safe. So it came as a bit of a shock when, just last week, he confided to me that he often didn't feel loved and that he was still afraid we were going to send him back to Ukraine.
Now having read a great many books on adoption, on attachment disorders, and so on, I never expected Cava to grasp how much we love him right away or that love would be instantaneous. I understood, mentally, that he is overcoming eight years of rejection, loss, and hurt. Should I have expected that in two short years he would understand something that many adults don't even truly get?
We constantly tell Cava that we love him and he responds back that he loves us. When he confessed that he didn't always feel loved, I paused, processed, and prayed before I responded. The first thing I asked him was, "Cava, do you know what love means?" He admitted that he didn't.
Before now, how would he? What would he have to understand or measure love by?
I took a deep breath and tried to explain love in terms that he would understand. I told him how, out of love, we flew to Ukraine to adopt a child. How, after spending only an hour with him, we wanted him to be part of our family forever. We talked about how extremely difficult it was for all of us when he first got here, but no matter how bad it got, we loved him and would never, ever consider sending him back. I also told him that he will never fully get how much his Mom and I loved him until he had his own children. I said that when you have a child and they are sad, you feel that sadness even more so because you want desperately to wipe it away. How parents want their children to be loved and accepted wherever they go and how much it hurts us when they aren't. As I watch Cava struggle so hard at school to fit in and know how deeply sad he is that he hasn't, my heart breaks and I continue to reassure him how great he really is. To let him see that he is worthy and deserving of love and acceptance, even when he can't love and accept himself.
We talked about the turmoil that goes on inside him. How he does not feel peace like calm lake but that his insides feel like the constant crashing waves of an ocean.
After we talked for about half an hour, which is amazing in and of itself and was a real gift because I got to see into Cava's heart and thoughts, I told him, "Buddy, whenever you feel this way. Whenever you feel unloved or are afraid that we will send you back, please come and talk to Mommy or I. We want you to feel like this is your home and that you are loved, wanted, accepted, and that your thoughts and feelings are valuable." I made him look me in the eyes and I asked, "Will you promise me that you will try to do that?" He nodded. "I want to help you and I never want you to feel unloved or afraid at home."
Do I think this settles the matter?
Definitely not.
Do I see that we still have a lot of work ahead of us?
Yes! But I'm glad to have a better understanding of how I can work to help this scared little boy to feel loved and to understand what love really means, not by just giving him a definition in one short talk, but in being there for him day after day after day. Loving him when he's at his most unlovable. Reminding him through words and actions that I love him. As an example, I said, "If someone told me, you can either keep all of your books or you can keep Cava, which one will you choose?" I looked at Cava, who, knowing how much I love to read, was a bit worried, so I reassured him with, "I would always choose you. You and Mommy and Benjamin mean more to me than anything else in this world. I would never, ever give any of you up." He smiled a smile of relief that I didn't pick the books and sighed, "Good!"
Every time I see that Johnson's Baby "So Much More Commercial," my heart aches because I know that Cava never got that. He didn't get that attachment as a baby. Eight years he has had to self-soothe and comfort himself, so it will take time for him to understand that strong bond a child can have with its parents. How a parent is there to take care of, nurture, protect, love, celebrate, find joy and pleasure in, teach, and even punish out of love. The latter is really something he struggles with, so we make sure he understands why he's being punished and that we are doing so out of love and not malice or capriciousness. He must see that everything is done out of love, for his best interests, and for his well being.
I pray every day that Cava will grow in the knowledge that he is loved, accepted so that he can feel peace inside. I know this will come, slowly, but it will come. As I told him, "God loved you enough to send a family from a city in North Carolina to a small village in Ukraine so that you could be a part of us. And He loved us enough to send us all the way to Ukraine so that you could be a part of our family. Cava, God knew all of this before either you or I were ever born. Before He even formed us in the womb, God had it planned out so that we would be a family. He loved us that much." Knowing how much his Heavenly Father loves him is going to be a key to his healing. Teaching him "For God so loved the world . . ." can heal this child more than our imperfect love ever can.
So we will continue to let Cava know that he is loved and will be loved. That he is and always will be a part of our family, on good days and bad. I just can't wait to see the day when Cava knows some real peace in his life. Jesus calmed the seas and I know He can do the same for those inside our son.

So here is my creative process:
1. Paint fusible web with metallic acrylic paints & let dry
2. Paint iron-on interfacing (non-woven) with Dye-na-Flo or inks
3. Paint chipboard with gold metallic paint.
4. Iron web to one side of chipboard. Use a non-stick sheet or parchment paper& don't peel off until cool. Then iron interfacing to other side of chipboard. (I experimented with ironing the fusible web to canvas, paper towels, & to the painted interfacing with various results which I loved but weren't stable enough for my project. see ex.
My friend, Nan has really gotten me into this palette of green & blues. Don't you just love it?
5. I then stamped both sides of my covered chipboard with various stamps & Stazon ink. Then layered with angelina, & sprinkled with different embossing powders. and then a coat of clear on top.
6. Cut your embellished chipboard into your desired size. Mine was 1" sq.
7. Emboss the edges with gold embossing powder & punch holes to set eyelets for jump rings.
8. I also wanted to add a dangle charm at the bottom & used a shell & glued a butterfly charm onto it. So attach your jump rings & you are ready to wear or give away your charm.
We have 10 ladies in this swap so I can't wait until Sunday to see what goodies I get. I'll post the results later. Have a great day.

The black suit is an imposing piece of menswear. It is one and only which is easy to match with just about anything in your closet. Many men keep a black suit in prom parties for the striking look; it is also appropriate for any serious occasion. Black is essentially the other way around, making it perfect for evening wear when the majority of formal events tend to occur, such as wedding receptions, black & red tie suit events and nights on the town but. If you're feeling self-conscious about your size, then a black suit is an easy way to look sharp while creating a slimming look. It's one of the reasons why the black suit is such an attractive design, no matter what your size or shape, as long as it fits properly you'll look good. An un-patterned black suit is the most formal piece of business wear available to a man while Patterning will reduce the formality of the suit somewhat, A black patterned suit will usually still serve as the formal business dress, but it is more appropriate for occasions and parties, etc.
Regarding style always go for chic one button jacket and peak lapel collar because it creates the powerful silhouette and brings elegance and sophistication into your persona. Secondly, always choose those suits which are cut fit to your body. You want the jacket to hug your shoulders and be cut slim through the waist, Make sure it's long enough to cover your seat and that the sleeves allow around half an inch of shirt cuff to show you may want to show slightly more off if you're going to be combining it with French cuff shirts and cufflinks in the evening. Thirdly, consider the suit material while purchasing it. Go for light weighted fabric because it will help to regulate heat/sweat and can handle the occasional spillage.
Black suits are often made from the undyed wool of black sheep. It gives a very clean drape that helps with the imposing effect of the dominant color. Small amounts of synthetic fibers can add strength and durability to a wool suit, but more than a minor addition to the blend will give black a faintly reflective quality that looks bright in most lighting. Even wool suits may seem too slickly smooth if the wool is very fine, giving the wearer a slightly artificial appearance Plain black suits are almost always made from wool. The visual weight of unbroken black is too overpowering to pair with a light, billowing fabric or a high-sheen textile.
A well-fit suit is extremely important for men. A great suit doesn't look so great if it doesn't fit. A badly-fitted black suit draws the viewer's attention to its unattractiveness. To look smart and stylish you need to focus on some important points which will assist you how your black suit should fit your body.
The fall of a black suit coat from the shoulder to the hip is particularly important: to flatter the wearer, a black jacket should always taper gently at the waist, the suit should never be tight enough to pinch or wrinkle when it moves, nor loose enough to fold or billow on its own.
Your jacket sleeves should sit just above the wrist. When you're standing with your arms by your side, the sleeves of the suit jacket should sit comfortably grazing the joint where your thumb meets your wrist and should allow ½ of shirt cuff to show. It should not be so tight that it pulls at your shirt or restricts motion. However, there should not be so much room that your arm moves around loosely in the sleeve.
To avoid a boxy silhouette, your suit should dart in at the waist. Even on a pre-darted suit, you should have your jacket tailored to fit your body.
The jacket should completely cover your butt and no more. The jacket should end somewhere between your thumb's knuckle and your thumb's base. The back panel of the jacket should end just below the bottom of the seat.
Your lapels should lay against your chest, but they should not be tight. Some poorly fitting jackets clearly show space between the wearer's chest and the front of the jacket while buttoned.
The collar should lie close to your shirt collar. Any space between your shirt collar and the jacket collar is known as "collar gap" and indicates a poorly fitting shoulder-collar stance.
Go for a modern straighter cut that will create a sleek silhouette, instead of a frumpy, baggy one. The pant should have one break at the bottom, and the leg should stop halfway down your shoe this is known as the medium break. Try to avoid from too much break, because that too much break will look baggy.
An all-black outfit can look extremely sharp and sophisticated when executed correctly. With this in mind, try combining a crisp black cotton dress shirt, knitted silk tie, and patent leather shoes with your wool-blend suit to create a super slick ensemble that comes into its own at night. The full black suit works best in night parties, and formal get together with friends, night events, etc.
You don't need to purchase the new suit for your any official party. This is where your black suit can step in. Pair it with a closed placket white dress shirt, black grenadine bow tie and some black shoes and you've got a ready-made substitute that no-one will even realize isn't a tux. Your style will amaze all people at very first glance and surely give the compliment to your personality.
You can use your black suit with the blank canvas to work your party looks around. Patterned and printed shirts in neutral tones such as white, gray and navy are the perfect partner here and can be used to make the suit look different each time. Combine them with a colorful pocket square and black penny loafers and you can't surely look tremendous. Other pieces that can be used to give your suit a more dapper and classy feel include statement shirts roll necks, patterned knitwear and casual staples such as t-shirts and polo.
If you are planning for any hangout with your friends at few bars or clubs, then go for some casual cool dressing for example pair your usual dark indigo jeans and gray t-shirt combination with the suit jacket for an accurate look. Alternatively, if you're looking for something slightly smarter, for a high-end cocktail bar or restaurant, try teaming your blazer with white jeans/chinos for a striking, look. Finish your suit by wearing smart leather boots with it and you will be ready for your day out or whatever you have a plan. Don't neglect your suit trousers either, match them with a simple polo shirt and leather jacket/heavyweight bomber for a practical and effortlessly cool look for a Christmas night out or gathering.
Patterns with a white base keep the formality high, it is more suitable for business wear while un-patterned shirts in brighter colors contrast with the black to make a vibrant look suitable for evening entertainment and social events. Black suit with the contrast of light shirt may look good on a fair-skinned man with dark hair but the other hand it can look awkward on the same skinned man with blonde hairs. Low-contrast men will look best if they pair black with dark solids, or simply for an incredibly deep charcoal instead. Black looks equally well with gold or silver metallic, but will look gaudy with both at the same time. Be sure that the watch, belt buckle, tie clip, and any other metal adornments match when wearing black. Black in large quantities can be overwhelming on men with pale complexions, particularly low contrast men who have lighter skin and lighter hair and eye colors.
Wearing a colored shirt is probably the coolest and most subtle way of enriching a black suit. Shirts in a pale shade like blue or pink looks more striking and create more of a contrast with the black suit rather than white color shade. Black is a great color for creating contrast and making the rest of your outfit pop, so take advantage of this and play around with the colors you wear underneath. Wearing a black suit with a colored shirt is the great option for day office wear or if you have a job interview anywhere. You can also attire colored shirts with the black suit at any formal place like gatherings, events, or at any occasion. Similarly, a wedding is the perfect opportunity to whip out a colored shirt, for the more stunning look.
Print is one of the innovative ways of lifting your outfit. Select muted colors for small, polka dots and stripes prints. Flannel or plaid print also work best with the black suit and they help to reflect your personality and style. A patterned shirt shows off your personality and introduces an element of individuality into your formal wear. Wear a patterned shirt underneath your black suit for a date or a graduation ceremony. You can also attire at any formal party or gatherings for or striking look.
White is always a good option and gives a traditional, even look. A black shirt with a black suit gives an intense, stand out look. Try printed shirts for an interesting look, but keep the design small if you're going for a more formal look. Checks and stripes are a good option for a classic outfit, and something like a floral print is ideal for casual occasions.
Men's suit is just incomplete without a necktie. No matter where you're wearing a suit. A silk tie with a conservative pattern, like stripes or a micro-grid, is appropriate for a business suit while bright colors and patterns show off your personality outside the office. So go for silk tie with a black suit when you are going to an office and prefer pattern ties when you are attending any casual/formal parties, gatherings or occasional events.
Pocket squares add color and personality to your suit. Your pocket square and tie don't always have to match, but they shouldn't clash either. Choose a pocket square to match a highlight color from your tie or a neutral square to balance a brightly patterned tie.

Then next on our return, we have to go from Bellagio to malpensa airport to fly back. I intend getting to Maplensa the night before and staying at the Sheraton at the airport. Any advice on best way to get from Bellagio to Malpensa? Should we go to Como and take train to Milano Central and then take the bus to Malpensa, or can we go by train directly from Como to Malpensa?

I have been having issues with my Refererences disappearing from my Articles. All the work I put into highlighting my sources are gone. Which makes my Articles appear to have been plagiarized. I also have issues with double Titles appearing on my work. Please advise!!!
If your hub gets moved to a partner site, HubPages will remove your links to sources and resources most of the time.
HubPages doesn't see references, resources, or material sources as providing added value for their readers or as enhancing credibility, but strictly as ways for readers to leave their site. Their preference is for you to literally cover everything on the subject on the page. The odd thing is that they don't seem to see how providing basic explanations and definitions on more in-depth pages dilutes the impact of niche writing.

So I am having a chocolate themed party and have a few bottles of dark chocolate barbeque sauce. Was hoping to do cold finger foods rather than hot. Does this sound ok?
- Marinate in a little bit of bbq sauce
- Roast in oven until cooked through
- Skewer two or three pieces on small party/toothpicks
- Serve with additional bbq sauce on the side
Does this sound at all appetizing if served cold? Can you think of any way to make it better? One possibility is that I may be able to cook the chicken on a charcoal grill rather than in the oven. I'm mostly unsure if this is really going to taste ok cold...
Thanks for any advice or guidance you can give me!

|Estelle Parsons
Beverly Loraine "Bev" Harris is a fictional character in the Roseanne sitcom, the mother of Roseanne Conner and Jackie Harris. The part of Bev is played on the series by veteran actress Estelle Parsons.
About BeverlyEdit
Born 1929.She is the daughter of Nana Mary, mother of Roseanne Conner and Jackie Harris, and grandmother of their children. She married Al Harris after she was pregnant out of wedlock with Roseanne. As a result, Al took out his frustrations on the kids, Roseanne and Jackie, often being verbally and physically abusive towards them, and then for over 20 years had an ongoing affair with a mistress, due to the fact that he married Bev only out of necessity. After finding out the affair had been going on for twenty two years, Bev kicked Al out of the house. Bev herself was, and is during the course of the series, a recovering alcoholic. After husband Al died, Bev later came out as a lesbian to her family towards the end of the series.
During most of the series, Bev is loving but overly critical of everyone in the family, especially Jackie. She's very hard to please, and extremely hard for anyone to like. She has no problem pointing out the faults in people's lives, often throwing their mistakes in their faces. The only character that has ever matched her was her only mother, Nana Mary, whose relationship with her is very similar to the one she shares with her own daughters. She is portrayed by Estelle Parsons.
Bev appears in 59 episodes of the series, being the most recurring family member who is not part of the main cast.When Roseanne was a young girl, whenever she was sad, Beverly would give lots of sweets with ice cream with chocolate chips. She might be the reason that Roseanne is overweight even at a very young age. She used to force her children to go to etiquette school, and they were horrible at it. In Home Is Where The Afghan Is, it is hinted that when her kids were growing up, she was more of an etiquette teacher than a mother.bev met al outside of a bar al flirted with her and kissed her and asked her out and offered to drive her home but he drove her to a middle of a field and gave her some of his liquor they talked about their lives a little then he started making out with her and a minute he was "on" her she didn't even know they were doing "it" until 2 minutes later and that was how Roseanne was conceived.

Ok, I need help understanding how to organize what I'm trying to do. I am trying to create a site where there are "Features" which would include "Reviews" and "Editorials" (and then within reviews, I would also want "Action", "Strategy", etc). This constitutes larger articles that would be given front page prominence.
Secondly, I want to create a category called "Blogs" with subcategories of "Gaming" and "Non-gaming".
1) All of these need to be self contained. Should I, rather, think of the subcategories as their own seperate and unique categories (thus removing the "Features" and "Blogs" supercategories)?
2) WordPress seems to consider all "posts" as blog entries. Would I need to create custom template .php's for every section?
Basically, between pages, posts, categories and templates, I have no idea how to organize my site as I post things.
The topic 'Amplify Categories' is closed to new replies.

Re: Etters from Illinois
In reply to:
Re: Etters from Illinois
Rosanne, your father, Burl, is my first cousin. Leda was my dad's sister. His name was Claude Heathcock. I spent the summer of 1950 with Aunt Leda & Uncle Oscar and spent the night several times with Burl and Chrissy (I think that was your mother's name). I babysat you several times. I loved Burl, Dub and Gene - they were always so kind to their younger Heathcock cousins. I remember them all coming to visit us in Holland in their U.S. Navy uniforms. They were all so handsome. I've been so curious if any of those cousins are still alive. The last time I saw Dub was in the early 1960s when he was living in Pana, IL It was several years before that when I saw Burl and Gene. After Aunt Leda died, and we all married and went to various places, we lost contact with the Etters family. One contact was Aunt Lou in St. Louis who was Leda's youngest sister. Please contact me.

There are two types of diabetes. Type 1 and type 2. If you have type 1 diabetes, it means that your body is unable or only produces little insulin. If you have type 2 diabetes, it means that the insulin produced by your body isn't properly used by the body or it doesn't produce enough insulin in order to control blood sugar level. Most adults who have diabetes suffer from type 2 diabetes.
Living with diabetes is very stressful but with discipline and the right resources, you will find it easy to adjust and still live a normal and full life. Diabetes has been around for many years, and there are still quite a lot of people who knows little about it. If you are diabetic, it is important that you know how to properly manage the disease in order to prevent or at least minimize the complications brought upon by the disease.
Diabetes attributes to a lot of health problems. Some of the complications attributed to diabetes, are blindness, kidney damage or renal failure, nerve damage, and heart disease. You can live for years with the disease and don't know that you are diabetic. The main goal in treating diabetes is keeping your blood sugar level as close to normal as possible. In order for you to minimize or prevent complications caused by the disease it shouldn't be too high or too low.
With a healthy diet and a regular exercise program the disease can be managed. What this means is that you will need to change your diet and exercise habits. For some people, it may even mean changing their lifestyle. You also need to watch your weight in order to regulate your blood sugar level, so try to minimize your fatty intakes.
Consult your doctor about your condition in order for you to know more about it and also have knowledge on how to treat it. The doctor will tell you about the foods you need to eat, and also how much exercise you need to have each week. Before you start any rigorous exercise program it is important to check your doctor.
Image courtesy of email@example.com Image
Stick to a diet of low fat, low salt, low sugar, low carbohydrates, and high fiber. Snack in between meals is also recommended in order to regulate blood sugar levels in the body. Another important factor in controlling blood sugar levels is by regularly checking your blood glucose levels several times each day. You will need to have a glucose meter in order for you to do so.
In some cases, diet and exercise alone are not enough in order to regulate blood sugar levels. The doctor will usually talk to you about other treatments for diabetes, such as medicine and insulin.
These are the basics of proper management of diabetes. Living with diabetes can be hard at first but with discipline and in time, you will be able to get used to a new lifestyle and continue on living a healthy, normal and full life.
I am not a medical doctor. Thanks for sharing my views

Bumbleride Stroller Recall Two Reports Of Minor Injuries
February 27, 2012 by staff
Bumbleride Stroller Recall Two Reports Of Minor Injuries, The manufacturer of two strollers, the Bumbleride Indie and Bumbleride Indie Twin, and product safety officials announced a voluntary recall on Friday to address a problem with the front wheel that could cause the strollers to tip. It also issued a "consumer alert" about a multi-use bar that, when adjusted incorrectly, could cause an unharnessed child to strangle.
The action comes days after Consumer Reports informed the company and the Consumer Product Safety Commission that we judge both models "Don't Buy: Safety Risk" because of our concerns about the adjustable, multi-use bar. Our tests showed the potential for an unharnessed child to be strangled by slipping under the bar, which spans the seat of the Indie and each of the Indie Twin's seats.
Friday's recall, however, focused on the strollers' front wheel. A CPSC press release said, "The front wheel can break at the axle hub, causing the stroller to tip and posing a fall hazard." There have been 36 incidents of the front wheel cracking, including two reports of the stroller tipping over, resulting in minor injuries, the CPSC said.
The Indie, about $500, and Indie Twin, roughly $700, are designed to be used with children up to 45 pounds and up to 43 inches tall. They can be used with various car seat models from other manufacturers.
The recall affects about 28,000 units sold in the United States and 2,700 sold in Canada, all with manufacture dates from January 2009 though January 2012. The strollers were made in Taiwan.
The CPSC says that consumers should immediately stop using the recalled strollers and visit Bumbleride's site or contact the company at support@bumbleridecom or 800-530-3930 to receive a free front-wheel retrofit kit. The company is also discontinuing and stopping sale of those two models, according to Matthew Reichardt, chief executive officer of Bumbleride Inc. of San Diego, Calif.
UPDATE: Bumbleride Indie and Indie Twin strollers on the market now no longer have a wheel problem, Reichardt said in an interview Friday evening. Furthermore, they no longer come with a multi-use bar, he said.
He maintained that when used correctly, the multi-use bar is safe. But the company removed them from strollers for sale because "we can understand there could be confusion" about their safe use, he said.
The company will release a new bar in March as an optional accessory, Reichardt said. It also plans to offer an infant car seat adapter at that time. Consumer Reports will test these accessories when they become available.
Safety concern
On current Bumbleride Indie strollers, the bar is attached above the child's legs, and can be set in three positions. In the highest position, it is intended as a grab bar or bumper bar for a child. In an intermediate position it acts as a support for an infant car seat. The third and lowest position is down against the seat for folding the stroller. When the bar is in the highest position, the strollers are safe to use and meet the voluntary ASTM-International safety standard requiring that if there is enough room for a child's torso to fit between the bar and the seat there must be enough room for the child's head to fit through, too.
But with the bar in the intermediate position, our tests showed a child's torso could fit through the space between the bar and the stroller seat—but his head might not. That poses a strangulation hazard known as "submarining." If a child is placed in the stroller unharnessed (something manufacturers including Bumbleride and child-safety advocates urge caregivers not to do, but which some do anyway) the child could slip down and be strangled by the bar. Federal data show that this type of strangulation was responsible for at least 10 infant deaths between 1995 and 2008, the latest dates for which complete data are available, though we do not know of any deaths or injuries associated with the Bumbleride Indie or Indie Twin strollers.
A small tag on the multi-use bar's zip-on cover warns of this hazard. "Warning: When child is seated in stroller, only use bumper bar in upright position. Child can slide forward and strangle," it says. And the strollers' instruction manuals also state, "When used as a bumper bar, ensure that the multi-use bar is adjusted to position." But Consumer Reports believes that some users may not read the instruction manual or notice the warning, and those who do can easily forget to adjust the bar—a foreseeable misuse.
"We reasoned that parents of babies, especially twins or children close enough in age for there to be a need of a double stroller, may be rushed and frazzled," said Joan Muratore, Consumer Reports program leader child-product tests. "They might easily forget to move the grab bar back up from the potentially dangerous, intermediate position."
To test this concern, we conducted a panel test with 20 staffers using Indie Twin strollers. Panelists (all current or recent stroller users, though not otherwise involved in our stroller test program) were given tasks that included putting a car seat with dummy into or out of the stroller, then putting the dummy in the stroller without the car seat. The manufacturer's instruction manual was on hand. Yet few panelists read it and set the multi-use bar appropriately.
On February 1, the day after Consumer Reports contacted Bumbleride about the problem with the multi-use bar, the company posted a page on its website Using the Multi-use Bars Correctly. Accompanied by diagrams showing correct use of the bar, the page states: "It has come to our attention that there is a possibility for multi-use bars included with Indie and Indie Twin models (I-110, I-205, IT-111 and IT-305) to be used incorrectly, resulting in a potential strangulation hazard."

The Guess Who Brings Rock and Roll to Isle Casino Cape Girardeau
Legendary Canadian hit makers, The Guess Who, will be appearing at
the Isle Casino Cape Girardeau on July 5. This will be yet another stop on the
recent tour for the classic group, who are expected to perform all of their
hits, many of which have become rock and roll standards. Songs such as "No
Time," "Undun," "These Eyes," "Clap For The
Wolfman," and the group's number one charting anthem, "American
Woman," have long since become staples of classic rock radio in
The latest edition of the group contains long term members Garry Peterson and Jim Kale, as well as relative newcomers Derek Sharp, Laurie MacKenzie, and Leonard Shaw. This version of the group has been together for several years now, and has appeared at sold out venues all over North America and Europe.
The Guess Who are a long running institution in the history of rock and roll music, having gotten their start in the early 60's, just before the British Invasion that saw groups such as the Beatles and Rolling Stones dominate the charts. As it was, the group (then known as Chad Allen and the Reflections) was forced to change their sound from 50's styled R&B/pop to all out Beatles-style rock and roll.
At around the same time, the group was compelled by legal reasons to become Chad Allen and the Expressions. They released a single version of the rock and roll standard, "Shakin' All Over", which had originally been done by Johnny Kidd and the Pirates, and was later also covered by British rockers with an oddly similar name: The Who.
The single took off immediately, thanks to -or, perhaps, despite- an extremely odd marketing gimmick which their record label, Quality, had dreamed up in order to promote it. Instead of labeling the single with the name of the artist ("Chad Allen and the Expressions"), they instead simply listed the name of the song with the added words, "By Guess Who?" Apparently, the label felt that the single might get fans involved in a "guessing game" wherein they might come to think that the single had been released by any number of famous British musicians -perhaps even the Beatles themselves- under this handy pseudonym.
The ploy worked, and "Shakin' All Over" became the first of several hits by the fledgling group, now known as one of the foremost groups that Canada had to offer the world. However, the end had come for Chad Allen, who was soon after replaced by Burton Cummings. With the group's "classic" later 60's lineup complete, they soon went on to sign a record contract with the American label, RCA Records. The first two albums released under this new arrangement, "Wheatfield Soul" (1968) and "Canned Wheat" (1969), became major sellers, thanks to classic chart topping singles such as "Undun," "Laughing," and "These Eyes".
However, it was the release of the group's next album, "American Woman" that solidified the group's place in rock and roll history. The album contained three smash singles, "No Time," "No Sugar Tonight," and the extremely controversial title track. Indeed, this last track was nearly banned by many radio stations, who misheard the song's anti-war message. Still, the group soldiered on, releasing half a dozen more classic albums on the RCA label. These later albums, such as "Artificial Paradise," "Rockin'," "Road Food," and others, contained further hits such as "Bus Rider" and "Clap For The Wolfman".
While the group disbanded in the later 1970's, they have regrouped in the 21st century, stronger than ever. The new lineup of the group has been consistently rated by critics, promoters, and fans alike as a guaranteed crowd pleaser, and has garnered rave reviews all over the world. The group's appearance at the Isle Casino is bound to please longtime fans and curious newcomers alike. Tickets are on sale now in the Gift Shop or online here.

How to turn a Fan into a Foe
I'm developing a health & fitness/wellness website using Joomla and I wanted individual users to have a personal calendar where they could record their training appointments etc etc. While there's a variety of "event calendars" available, they're all focused on providing the website owner with the ability to promote "events" and have members register their attendance. I simply wanted calendar functionality. After searching around I finally found JCal Pro. While it was still an event focused calendar it was advertised as offering private calendars. So I handed over my $29 and installed the component.
My initial impression was I liked the component and it was better looking and laid out than the competitors, I was a fan. However, when I tried adding events, there was no option for them to be "private" unless I was logged in as a site administrator. All events added by regular users were public and required approval by an administrator. I went through the instructions multiple times and still couldn't get it working.
So on September 20 I posted a message on the JCal support forums requesting help. After a day or so I got a response from the developers, Anything Digital, that they were looking in to it and then a follow up saying they've confirmed it was a bug and I could expect a fix in 24-48 hrs. So far so good, bugs happen, I can accept that, I was still a fan. But then things started to go downhill …
I waited 48hrs for the fix … nothing. So I posted a "bump" reminder message on the forums to get an update.
I waited another 48hrs … still nothing. No communication at all. I posted another message on their forums asking for a response and letting them know I was starting to think about asking for a refund and that so far I'd have little option to write a not very positive review on the Joomla Extensions catalogue.
I waited another 48hrs … still nothing. So I posted again, requesting a refund. Their official policy says "no refunds", but I pointed out that a credit card chargeback would cost them more than a refund, so they may want to reconsider, and that continuing to advertise it as offering "private calendars" was false advertising. On September 28 I also wrote a review on Joomla.org describing my experience.
Another 24hrs went by and finally a response – more than a week after I was told I could expect a fix within 24-48 hrs. I was told that the fix was with beta testers and they also issued me with a refund and closed my account with them. September 29.
This was more than a little confusing. What I wanted was private calendars. I only asked for a refund after it seemed apparent they couldn't provide them anytime soon and had poor support. If they had a fix and it would soon be available, I was more than willing to wait – all they had to do was tell me what was going on!
I was annoyed, but left it at that until today. Why? Well, yesterday my review on Joomla Extensions had now been approved by the Joomla.org site admins and was posted along with a response by Anything Digital claiming the issue was resolved with a link back to the forums (update: the review has mysteriously been removed). I thought, great, I still don't have a solution maybe I'll buy it again! So I went to the forums and got this response –
Sorry david_steadson, you are banned from using this forum!
Gave a bad JED review even though we refunded his money
This was completely false! I gave the bad review only after I'd waited a week for a response, and a day before I was issued the refund. Furthermore, when I went to the forums without logging in, there was nothing new in the thread except the acknowledgment it had been sent to testing. After looking around the site some more I found something even more irritating … they have indeed finally publicly issued the fix!
I still need a private calendar solution. What do I do? Give them the money again despite the bad experience with their support, including being outright dishonest in the statement above? Right now I don't know what I should do. Their software is licenced under GPL which means anyone who has it is free to share it around, so I could just wait until somebody does that, but it could be weeks or months.
I like the software. I want to use it. I would have been a fan and written positively about them, but instead because of their lack of communication they've turned me into a foe, with a post like this on the internet for googlers to find for years to come.
UPDATE 2010-01-01: I now have the latest version of JCalPro version 18.104.22.1681 and the Private Calendars functional still does not work, with users additions requiring administrator approval even for their own private activities.

Pica8 Says 'Yes' and Challenges the FUD
Up to this point, OpenFlow has mostly been deployed in research and higher-education environments. These early trials have shed some light on interesting use cases, what OpenFlow is good for, and of course, what OpenFlow might not be so good for.
This is important because OpenFlow and SDN adoption is only going to grow. It's imperative that we understand these limitations – specifically, what's real and what's FUD.
One of these is scale.
If you've kicked the tires on OpenFlow, one question you may have heard is "How many flows does that switch support?" However, this question is only part of the story. It's like asking only about a car's top speed when what you should be thinking other things too – such as fuel efficiency and maintenance. So to figure out the right questions, we first need to go over a bit of background.
In its most basic terms, any network traffic, whether it's Layer 2, Layer 3, or something else, is governed by a of forwarding rules as defined by a series of protocols. If it's this MAC, do this. If it's that IP, go there. Each of these "rules" is stored on the switch, in memory, in something called the Forwarding Information Base (FIB) or Router Information Base (RIB).
OpenFlow is a little different. It allows for more point-to-point connections that you can base on business logic "rules".. These rules, or flows, are implemented in a different way. If I see packet type x, perform action y. It doesn't have to follow the OSI networking model, and as such, gives users added flexibility to govern how traffic behaves. This works great for policy-based networking and driving business logic into the network. But at its heart, it's another networking protocol and the basic concept is the same. The key difference with this approach is that these flows are not storied in say the FIB, but in the switch Ternary Content Addressable Memory (TCAM).
Now here is where things get interesting.
Let's look at the switch with the Broadcom Trident II ASIC. Pretty much every major switch vendor has a switch with this ASIC including us with both pre-loaded and bare metal switch options through our Hardware Ecosystem (link). Trident II enables you to store up to two thousand entries in the TCAM. Most every other switch vendor has used this data point to drive the perception that OpenFlow will not scale.
Well, we at Pica8 agree – to an extent. Two thousand flows are not enough – if you have 400 network nodes and each of those speaks five other nodes, that already maxes out your TCAM. So what did Pica8 do to solve this? Two things:
- First, we made the TCAM table much more efficient. Instead of treating this as a hard limit of two thousand flow entries, we chose to slice and dice that memory into smaller chunks. Each flow entry is designed for a packet header, but in many cases, you don't need to inspect the entire header to determine the right action. Having 3 smaller tables can go a long way – one table for port, another for MAC, and another for signature can increase the total number of rules. In some cases you might just need to match the port? Or the destination IP? Or the MAC? Or a combination of the above? Think of this as a 2000 page book – with each page having just enough room for one packet header. But if your flow doesn't need to match the entire header, you'll have lots of whitespace. We've filled up every page to the margin. In addition to that, we implemented the usage of wildcards, aggregation, de-duplication and other techniques to optimize the table. With all these enhancements, we've managed to effectively double the capacity of flows in the TCAM. But that's still not enough to make an appreciable difference right? So…
- Second, we attached the FIB table to the TCAM. This is a capability that we have leveraged on the Trident II ASIC. In this way, we've vastly expanded the number of entries that use a standard IP longest prefix match algorithm, while also freeing up even more space in the TCAM by eliminating the need for IP lookups.
Both of these innovations contribute to an OpenFlow implementation that supports over two hundred THOUSAND flows – all on the exact same hardware that the other guys use. And this number makes a lot more sense as we expect more customers to roll out larger OpenFlow networks into production.
So, when you want to give OpenFlow a try – make sure you ask the right questions about the limitations you've been presented with. You might be surprised at the answer. To learn more about SDN scaling and Pica8, send us a note at firstname.lastname@example.com. We would love to hear your comments.

Being self employed comes with a host of advantages, however there are certainly some drawbacks true including the lack of a guaranteed salary. However most people who do succeed in online business possess one vital trait – adaptability. This skill is vital as the online world changes almost daily and fixed business models are rarely effective for long.
Perhaps the greatest concept known to humans, in temporal terms, is leverage. Correctly using leverage is what propels people toward the goals they might not be able to achieve by themselves. The amazing thing about this idea is just how many different uses there are for it. You can guess that we are getting to using leverage in business and marketing. It is good to figure out how to properly apply and use leverage for your business world.
If you are truly serious about creating a business on the web and want to do something different, then check this out and the rest in this article. With this idea you will be set up to be a site usability expert but you have to be willing to really do your research, keep learning and stay on top of things. There are resources you can use, for example investing in a simple UK VPN will mean you can access loads of UK business sites from anywhere in the world.
Usability just means user friendly, and you know a site must be user friendly. So you can learn all you can and then build your site, and a content site is best for this. Work on your email list and then reach out to contact small and medium sized businesses who have signed up to hear from you. What you might want to do is send out a low cost product so that you can provide consulting services to other businesses at the same time.
You need to test a lot with your marketing and advertising if you want to build a strong foundation for your success online. But most IMers (and large businesses) skip this step because they don't have a clue as to how to do it. For this, you are going to be a split testing expert which means you need to learn quite a lot about copywriting. The whole reason to do split testing is to increase your rate of conversion. So what you can do here is offer some conversion rate consulting services to businesses and teach them how to boost their conversions. You can also combine this with the site usability consulting business, as well.
Affiliate marketers, for the most part, ignore the power held by video which is a gigantic mistake. It's possible that they are just too lazy to create videos and that's why they lose out on so much marketing power. We've all seen review websites–they are quite effective when they are done well. What you are going to do is build a site that will have some textual content on it but the primary features will be in the video. What you will be doing is creating video reviews of the products and services that you are trying to sell. You can also make presell videos which are totally different from the reviews. If you aren't yet familiar with both preselling as an idea or an action, it is time to start learning. But presell marketing isn't really that hard to learn or really understand; it does take some work, however, to learn the best way to approach it.
Lead generation is the best thing for people who offer services on the Internet. It is not important whether your prospects are generated on or offline, you need to be working in both arenas. What is important is that you put that effort into building as many leads as you possibly can. If it has been well-oiled, you will have a steady influx of highly targeted leads.

We've had a busy start to the term with students enjoying various trips to exciting places. Our first ever skiing trip took place during the Easter holidays. By all accounts, the students were a great credit to the school. Many thanks to Mr Moore and all the staff and students for making it a great success. Mr Gilbert is already getting organised to run next year's trip – look out for further information. The Year 10 Geography trip to Iceland was another successful adventure; I've had numerous accounts from staff and students about all the amazing experiences they had. Once again, Highbury Grove students were superb ambassadors for the school. Thanks to Ms Menary for her great organisation.
150 Year 9 students have just taken part in our annual Outward Bound week in Aberdovey, Wales. It is so important for students to experience life outside the safe familiarity of their London bubble and we continue to be committed to outdoor education for all. It's a vital element of our curriculum. I don't really understand why some students opt to miss out on a free, life-enhancing trip to Wales; next year we will be expecting all of our current Year 8s to take part! The Highbury Grove School Foundation is devoting the proceeds from the Auction of Promises on Thursday 12 May to supporting our Outward Bound weeks. The range of lots on offer is quite staggering and we are deeply grateful to everyone who has given so generously to support us in this way.
As explained in my recent email to parents, we now have a Head of School for each Key Stage at Highbury Grove. The diagram illustrates the structure with Ms Leila MacTavish joining us this term to complete the team.
Teaching staff have begun discussing our priorities for teaching and learning and the curriculum for the coming year. In addition to implementing all the changes to GCSEs and A levels, we will be focusing on a few key areas including those listed below. We will discuss some of this at the next Parents' Forum.
Explicit Knowledge: An important feature of the curriculum is for students to learn specific facts about the topics they study; facts they should know off by heart. All the new GCSEs and A levels are assessed through final exams so it is very important our students learn how to memorise things, building up their bank of knowledge as well as learning how to discuss and analyse what they've learned. We will be doing more work to spell out exactly what students should know in each subject.
Rhetoric/Speaking: Developing lots of ways for students to gain confidence with speaking, presenting and debating.
Reading: Planning lessons so that students in the lower school read from a wide range of sources in as many lessons as possible every day.
Excellence Exhibitions: We are planning a series of units of work across the year in all subjects designed to allow students to craft, redraft and polish excellent work. These pieces of work will be published for display to parents and the school community. It's an exciting initiative that will showcase a lot of the wonderful work our students produce; it will give all students a chance to show the progress they are making.
Finally, I would like to reinforce the message in Ms Rous' email to parents, that we are moving towards fully cashless payments after half-term. You will all need to have a School Gateway account to pay for school meals. It means you do not have to give your children any cash. To activate your School Gateway account please visit the website: www.schoolgateway.com and click on 'New User'. You'll receive a text message with a PIN number. Use this PIN to login to School Gateway. We'll notify you by text or email when new items are available for payment.
Mr Sherrington
