As funeral services the victims begin today from 4P to 9P at the Parkchester Funeral Home and tomorrow at 9:45A, New York State Transportation officials are going to be installing concrete barriers on Bronx River Parkway to hopefully prevent another tragic crash, which killed seven people.
According to officials, those 2-foot, 8-inch concrete slabs will be installed on the right-hand side of the lanes to block vehicles from hitting the existing fence and falling off the elevated roadway.
These barriers are an interim safety measure are basically the same as the concrete medians separating northbound and southbound traffic. They will go up on the viaduct over the Bronx Zoo, the Amtrak tracks and others that cross over East Tremont Avenue.
The speeding SUV carrying 7 members of an extended family drove off the median, went airborne and fell 60 feet inside property belonging to The Bronx Zoo and killing everyone on board. In 2006 there were six people killed and unfortunately this time, it was seven.
Meanwhile, Fordham, the Jesuit university in The Bronx has created a relief fund for the family of these seven victims.

Beautiful trail. Great for kids and dogs. You are mainly right along the creek and the trail is flat.You walk through darker wooded areas and then out into little sunny open areas. The surrouding landscape is beautiful with large rocks and big trees.. Nice cool trail even in the heat of summer. My family loves it. We go walk and picnic every Mothers Day. Spectacular in the fall.

Canadian downhill skier Larisa Yurkiw officially qualified for Sochi after a career-best sixth place in a women's downhill race Saturday in Altenmarkt-Zauchensee, Austria.
Yurkiw, from Owen Sound, Ont., needed two top-12 results to qualify for nomination to Canada's Olympic team and followed up a seventh-place finish in the season-opening downhill in Lake Louise, Alta., with a strong run in Saturday's race in Austria.
"Larisa skied amazing today. She was super strong. It was solid skiing, top to bottom," said Hugues Ansermoz, head coach of Canada's women's team. "It's great that she has qualified for Sochi. She was already close to qualifying but she made the Olympic team through the front door without leaving anything to chance. She deserves it and she showed that today."
'Larisa skied amazing today. She was super strong. It was solid skiing, top to bottom.' - Canada's women's team coach Hugues Ansermoz
Elisabeth Goergl beat Anna Fenninger for an Austrian 1-2 finish, ending a two-year drought for the ski-mad nation in the sport's fastest discipline.
Goergl, the 2011 world champion, started 28th after the other top contenders had already gone down but had the fastest time at each interval.
Goergl finished the demanding three-kilometre Kaelberloch course in 1:47.45 to deny Fenninger her first career downhill win by 0.56 seconds.
"I know I had a super run. That gives me satisfaction," said Goergl, who also was the last Austrian woman to win a downhill — in Bad Kleinkirchheim, Austria, in January 2012.
"I am glad that I had a smooth run," Goergl said. "Winning isn't the most important to me. What really counts is skiing well. I wasn't able to show that last year."
It was the first 1-2 finish in a World Cup downhill for Austrian women since 2007.
Maria Hoefl-Riesch of Germany, who has won two downhills this season, came 0.63 behind in third and lost her lead in the overall standings to Fenninger by six points, 677-671. Tina Weirather of Liechtenstein is third with 659 points.
Weirather came 0.91 behind in fourth.
Top 30 for Marie-Michele Gagnon
Marie-Michele Gagnon of Lac-Etchemin, Que., came 29th to claim her first top-30 World Cup finish in downhill to add to the seven top-10s and three top-five results she's already racked up this season in slalom, giant slalom and super-G.
"I'm more than happy with top 30. It's a huge stepping stone for me because being in the points shows you are part of the group," said Gagnon, who was the first Canadian alpine skier to meet the criteria for nomination to Canada's Olympic team. "I don't train downhill and we only had one training run this week. I just got brand new boots and I raced on them and totally different skis, so I'm super happy with that."
Starting 25th, Yurkiw — who is racing as an independent under coach Kurt Mayr — produced a strong run to cross the line in a time of 1:48.58. Yurkiw suffered a catastrophic leg injury in 2009 but returned to competition two years later.
Yurkiw has previously had success in Altenmarkt, winning the downhill portion of a combined race — and beating American superstar Lindsey Vonn in the process — in January 2009. She was also seventh in the FIS Junior World Ski Championships in Altenmarkt/Flachau in 2007.
"This is her hill — she's done well here before," Gagnon said. "It great seeing her continue her streak of top results. She's a cool girl and I think I can learn a lot from her."
Gagnon, competing in downhill as part of her training for the combined discipline, achieved her aim of a top 30 finish when she crossed the line in 1:50.17.
"That was the goal today, just to score some points and get (Canada) another spot in downhill," Ansermoz said. "Without skiing her best she was top 30 so anything is possible for her in the combined."
Both Gagnon, who was fourth in the world in super-combined last season, and Erin Mielzynski, of Collingwood, Ont., are set to compete in Sunday's super combined race.

While I'm working on my new blog (this blog 🙂 ), I started to face an issue. In random instances, I started to get this error from the browser.
502 - Web server received an invalid response while acting as a gateway or proxy server
First I thought this is an issue on Azure and tried to find a fix for it. But I couldn't able to find any clue which points this issue to Azure. When I searched little bit more about it, I found that it's issue in WordPress cache or cache configuration.
I found this blog for fix same issue when you use WP Total Cache but it didn't help me as I expected because configuration of these two plug-ins were very different.
Finally I found a solution from MSDN Forums, and after I changed the settings as it said, I was able to get rid of this issue. Required changes are as below:
- Go to WP Super Cache Settings page
- Go to Advanced Settings
- Uncheck "304 Not Modified browser caching. Indicate when a page has not been modified since last requested."
- Uncheck "Extra homepage checks."
This solved the above mentioned issue for me. 🙂

How to manage schedule payments in access 2007
Good day!
I have developed a real estate database. I am stucked at the point where I need to store schedule amounts received. I managed to create a form for the schedules of clients with for each loop but in receipt form I only can update matching dates. In case, where a client e.g does not pay amount on time (random monthly basis ). Therefore the months of receiving amounts are making hurdles to match schedule dates with receiving date. How and what stretegy I should use to accomplish the task?

Hi aaronejaz
You need to add
- a payment Day on your entity corresponding to Rental entity
- a Check payment entity in relation with Rental entity
And write an Sql script to check which Rental has no record in Check payment entity for the current date if its day is superior or equal to the payment date

WHITEWATER LIES ahead. The uncertainty of what dangers and adventure hide behind the bending canyon walls excites my imagination.
In a small way, it must be something like what John Wesley Powell felt before he rafted through the Grand Canyon. Neither the one-armed Powell, nor anyone else, had the slightest notion of what was ahead. For all they knew, the river might plummet off a lethal 100-foot waterfall. They set off anyway in their wooden boats.
Not all of them returned alive.
Today, I'm on a three-day trip down the Salt River with the rafting company Far Flung Adventures. We will be rafting the Upper Salt, a section of serious whitewater. This is not to be confused with the Lower Salt, where flotillas of tubing drunks wallow.
As the van descends the 1,000-foot walls of the Salt River Gorge, I find some consolation in knowing no 100-foot precipice waits for us on the river. I'm even reasonably confident we'll all live to tell the tale of the trip. But then, you never know. Plenty of people have drowned on the Salt.
For that reason, our professional river guides give us a safety talk on the ride down.
"Try to stay in the raft," says Far Flung Adventures guide Bill Mobley, 43. "If you do get thrown from the raft, roll onto your back and keep your feet downriver."
That way, Mobley explains, if you crash into a rock you'll go feet first. Another advantage is that when Mobley, or our other guide, Tammy Besmehn, 32, tosses a line bag at the hapless rafter, they can pull him backward toward the raft. By going backward, the back of the head and upper back push through the water and form a pocket of air around the face.
If you get pulled face first, Mobley says, you're going to submarine to the bottom and mingle with the fish.
We stop at the trading post at the bottom of the gorge and buy our permits. The Salt River Canyon lies within the Fort Apache Indian Reservation, and the Apaches charge a $20 fee to use their river.
We start down the dirt road that follows the Salt toward Cibecue Canyon, our put-in location. The single-lane dirt track hugs the edge of a cliff several hundred feet high. Down below the Salt River roils along. That I'm even wearing my seatbelt strikes me as humorous. If we went over the edge it wouldn't matter if I had armor plating, much less a seatbelt.
Almost in answer to my gruesome thoughts, I hear a pop and the van lurches. A tire's blown.
Our driver, Hilary Hauserman, 27, keeps the full-size van and its accompanying trailer full of rafts steady and on a straight line. Even more importantly, she keeps it on the road.
After fighting with a human-eating monster jack sporting a handle that has a disturbing tendency to jerk up and attack its operator, we get the tire changed after about an hour of struggle.
Undaunted, we press on to the launch area.
We pull up onto the sandy beach and load the inflatable boats as quickly as possible. This adventure will be an oar trip rather than a paddle trip.
On an oar trip, the river guide sits in the middle of the boat and commands the boat by using two giant wooden oars. On a paddle trip, everyone on the boat has a paddle and works together to steer and drive the boat.
Far Flung Adventures runs both kinds. If you want to relax, take pictures and focus on the scenery, oar trips are better. If you want to become an integral part of the boat's locomotion, a paddle trip might be the ticket.
Of course, among the rapids, people on oar boats are not reclining with martinis in hand. On the rougher water everyone must stay focused on what the raft is doing and what the guide wants you to do. If the raft encounters a large wave or careens into a rock, the passengers have to high-side. This entails moving your body weight to whichever side of the boat starts to rise up. Theoretically this prevents the boat from flipping, although the success rate depends on the speed with which the crew reacts to the guide's orders.
Loaded and eager, we set sail.
In a few moments, we hit the first rapids. My heart stops and my mind goes numb, not from the size of the rapids, which are pretty small, but from the chill of the water. If I didn't have reason enough before, I have plenty of motivation to stay in the raft now.
What Charles Trumbull Hayden was thinking I can only imagine. In 1873 he devised a scheme to log trees up in the Sierra Ancha Mountains in Apache country and raft them down the Salt River. According to the story published at the time in Prescott's Arizona Miner, the attempt succeeded only in water logging Hayden's men, who lost of most their gear. But what a wild trip that would be, riding a log through class VI rapids.
Today the rapids are at most class IV, a wild ride, but not generally lethal. Class V is the most difficult rapid commercially run. Beyond that, you're taking your life into your own hands.
Today we practice our techniques on smaller rapids.
Tomorrow we encounter all of the big rapids on the river. To be continued....

Viola Davis and Meryl Streep lead best actress Oscar
This year's race for the best actress Oscar comes down to two front-runners. Meryl Streep, as Margaret Thatcher in "The Iron Lady," just won the Golden Globe for best actress in a drama -- an award that has predicted seven of the past 10 Oscars. Viola Davis, playing a maid in the deep South in "The Help," just won the Screen Actors Guild award for outstanding leading actress -- which has the exact same track record. So why does Davis have the advantage? Read on.
THE ACTRESS Glenn Close, "Albert Nobbs"
THE DEAL Close is genuinely moving as a woman passing for a man in this richly detailed period film. But it was a low-flying latecomer to the race and still hasn't built much momentum.
THE ACTRESS Viola Davis, "The Help"
THE DEAL There's a sense that the Oscars erred in passing Davis over for her star-making turn in 2008's "Doubt." That and the emotional resonance of her role in "The Help" make her the leading contender this year.
THE ACTRESS Rooney Mara, "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo"
THE DEAL A terrific honor for this starlet, but it's mostly a referendum on her future. The role of a Swedish goth-punk won't win her the award, though the nomination might make her a star.
THE ACTRESS Meryl Streep, "The Iron Lady"
THE DEAL Streep's acting isn't in question -- Is it ever? -- but the movie struck critics and audiences alike as middling at best. Her win at the Globes, while not undeserved, seemed merely like a safe choice.
THE ACTRESS Michelle Williams, "My Week With Marilyn"
THE DEAL Despite the pre-release buzz for Williams as tragic screen siren Marilyn Monroe, mixed reviews ultimately pushed her toward the back of the pack. Her miscategorized Globe award, for best comedic actress, probably won't help.

Fitted onto my 2017 Crosstrek with no problems although would advise a review of the assembly/installation instructions,. Really like that you don't need to add crossbars and are able to put directly onto the factory roof rails
It's works.
Nice rack!
product improvement recommandation
Reviewed by david t (Las Vegas, NV) Reviewed for a 2013 Toyota 4Runner — Dec 20, 2015 12:17 PM
If the manufacturer can developed a way to secure the screws by a knob so that the front and rear rack can move freely back and forth without having to use the hex hinge, it would have been a better product.
Overall Worth It

High quality, easy to install and use. Also great for those who don't want/have cross bars. Highly recommend.

Do you really know how much it costs to start a small business?
While starting a small business can be an exciting time it can also be an expensive time too. If you're starting from scratch you need to have a good idea of what costs are going to come your way and make sure that you can cover them all, plus extra to keep you going for the first few months (your working capital).
Start up costs will probably feature in the financial part of your business plan as just a single line, but before you get there you need to have broken it all down so that you know you've captured everything.
As a rule of thumb you need to add together all your costs and operating money – then double the original estimate. Sounds a little extravagant but people generally tend to underestimate and besides, if you do stick to the original amount then you'll have a little more money available for advertising etc once the business is up and running.
Initial start up costs
These are generally the costs to get you up and running. Some of them will be one off (such as company registration, web design, IT equipment etc) but others will be recurring (rent, website hosting, telephone, electricity). Don't forget to include some money for marketing too (but see Discretionary costs below).
If you're buying a franchise then the franchise fee will probably be the biggest start-up cost of all. Make sure you know what you get for the franchise fee – for example some franchises may provide stationary as part of the package which means you can knock it off your list. Before signing the franchise agreement make sure you're registered for tax so that you can claim back what will likely be quite a large sum.
The other big start up item can be your initial stock. Again, negotiate with the suppliers to either purchase a smaller than normal order, ask for a better start up price or see if they will waive part or all of the initial payment for a month or two.
Always be on the lookout for bargains as you will need to conserve as much money as possible to use as working capital. So, do you really need the latest, top of the range PC, or could an older and cheaper model keep you going for a year until you've got regular money coming in? Also, do you really need to rent an office? Some businesses can be run successfully from home but others do need to be on the high street. But don't take the landlord's first offer – try to negotiate for a rent free period (especially if the office is empty) to allow the business to get going.
Recurring business costs
Recurring costs are those monthly bills that need to be budgeted for like electricity and telephones. Make a list of them all and see what savings can be made by using automatic payments or online payments. Check to see that you're on the most appropriate payment schedule for what you need (the salesmen will always be trying to tempt you to the gold plated package which you don't need at the moment).
Make sure that you have a good budget spreadsheet with all of these recurring costs written down so that you can keep an eye on your cashflow.
Discretionary costs
You really shouldn't have too many of these at this stage, the main one will be how much you spend on marketing the business. This is a Catch-22 situation – you need to market to get customers but that means money out before money comes in. Also, you don't know what marketing will work for you at this stage and what might be a waste of money.
My recommendation when you initially start up is to market your business through your time and energy rather than through your bank account. You're the best advert for your business and face to face networking is the best way for people to build trust in you and the business so concentrate on that for the first few months before thinking about glossy ads and cost per click campaigns.
Getting money to buy a small business or start a small business generally means starting things on the cheap so every penny counts. Hopefully, the tips and ideas above will help you make a success of it and avoid any surprises.

ACCRA, OCTOBER 17, 2016 – Access Bank Ghana launched an initial public share offer on Monday, aimed at raising at least 104 million cedis ($26 million) for the lender, which is a subsidiary of Access Bank of Nigeria.The offer follows approval from Ghana's Security and Exchange Commission and the Ghana Stock Exchange, with the offer open from Wednesday until Nov. 11, the bank said in a statement.
"We are seeking to expand our operations by making new investments in branch expansion, robust technology and other infrastructure," said Access Bank Ghana Managing Director Dolapo Ogundimu.
The launch reflects a drive by subsidiaries of Nigerian banks to seek fresh sources of funding given the weakness of its own economy due to low oil prices.

Gravity's Rainbow Paperback
by Thomas Pynchon
Tyrone Slothrop, a GI in London in 1944, has a big problem.
Whenever he gets an erection, a Blitz bomb hits. Slothrop gets excited, and then, as Thomas Pynchon puts it in his sibilant opening sentence, 'a screaming comes across the sky', heralding an angel of death, a V-2 rocket.
Soon Tyrone is on the run from legions of bizarre enemies through the phantasmagoric horrors of Germany.
Gravity's Rainbow is never a single story, but a proliferation of characters - Pirate Prentice, Teddy Bloat, Tantivy Mucker-Maffick, Saure Bummer, and more - and events that tantalize the reader with suggestions of vast patterns only just past our comprehension.
It is a blizzard of references to science, history, high culture, and the lowest of jokes and among the most important novels of our time. Winner of the National Book Award.

Review by gbsallery
This is one of only two books I have ever stopped reading part-way through. The other is Joyce's Ulysses; the stylistic similarities of the two may have put me off of Gravity's Rainbow on my first attempt, but it was worth another try. Having now completed it, I have to admit that all the vociferous fans of Thomas Pynchon really do have a point: this is a great book. Spectacular. A rich, holographic exploration of tangled themes, scatology (and a little eschatology). Also rockets.In some ways reading the book is like watching literary parkour in rush-hour traffic - you are never sure whether a theme will be developed, or whether it will be hit by another explosive juggernaut of whimsy. Horrid, beautiful, disturbing - Gravity's Rainbow is all these things, with a hallucinatory quality which rewards careless reading. Try to parse too closely, and the work jams up like a balky escapement; relax into it, read with the flow and the lyricism becomes apparent.Worth the persistence!
Review by alexrichman
Infinite Jest's cranky uncle - the hardest book I've ever read. There are 900 pages and 400 characters, and far more casual paedophilia than I'm used to, but despite my difficulties, it's obviously a work of (mad) genius. I even managed to enjoy some passages - the Anubis orgy, Ilse's impostors - but am mainly relieved to be finished.

MICHAEL Bublé swings, there's no doubt, but what's cooler is his punch. The strongman poses he frequently feigned Tuesday, opening a sold-out, three-night run at the Greek Theatre, weren't just a joke. Bublé, a 31-year-old Canadian vocalist who's claimed control of the American songbook with three successively more accomplished and popular studio albums, is a singer with an athlete's drive and a beat-master's sense of phrasing. At the Greek, his shiny suit and hot little big band signaled retro sophistication, but the best music placed him firmly in the here and now.
The music mattered most, but much of the evening was taken up with gags and monologues. Bublé's shtick endears him to his fans, but it was ultimately far secondary to his voice and his musical interaction with the players in his young band, especially pianist and musical director Alan Chang and drummer Rob Perkins.
Bublé was discovered singing at a wedding, and his flashy demeanor at the Greek showed what a great wedding singer he must have been. On a slanted stage that suggested a futuristic Las Vegas (not to mention Elvis Presley's legendary 1968 "comeback" television special), Bublé made the ladies swoon, joshed with the fellas, glad-handed in the crowd and cracked wise.
He strutted like a smarter version of Johnny Drama from "Entourage," did a spot-on Elvis imitation and engaged his young, uniformly attractive band in plenty of banter. Even the celebrity he singled out in the crowd was an interesting choice -- Brian Burke, general manager of the Stanley Cup-winning Anaheim Ducks and former GM of British Columbia native Bublé's team, the Vancouver Canucks.
Bublé's humor worked best when it had an edgy swagger recalling the infamous patter of his original role model, Frank Sinatra. But his fans adored every corny, canny move, sometimes to the detriment of the music. Bublé lapped up the love; he should have called for more quiet, as he did during a careful rendition of "Always on My Mind," which showed that he could achieve a honeyed tone and supple intonation.
Too much goofing almost obscured Bublé's inventive approach to melody and rhythm. Many young singers now are basically reference librarians, emulating their inspirations far too accurately. Bublé may have started his career in that vein, but he's developing a bold style of his own.
His take on "Feelin' Good" had some of the force of Nina Simone's version and its own, R&B-inspired kick. He drawled his way through "Call Me Irresponsible," showing how "lazy" phrasing can sometimes work. He even beat-boxed, ever so briefly. If he got a bit breathy here and there, he usually recovered by finding the songs' rhythmic core.
As much as Bublé's self-presentation turns fans' thoughts toward the Rat Pack, he's also reminiscent of his peers, notably the young hip-hop soul titan Usher and the blues-rock scion John Mayer. Two self-penned adult-contemporary hits, "Home" and "Everything," sounded quite a bit like Mayer; that's a smart commercial move, but it would be more exciting to hear Bublé throw down on some contemporary R&B.
For now, though, Bublé's formula is working. Donning a classic costume, but not strictly adhering to the musical approach those duds suggest, he can avoid the clichés of current mainstream pop and explore his potential as a singer.
Having found his way out of the retro box, he's not going back in. And that's the stance of a true fighter.

Hi Kermite, welcome to the Seven Forums.
This is an error in EPG (Electronic Program Guide) information and usually there's nothing a user can do. For some reason the program information has wrong duration for this one show. As your screenshots reveal, the program schedule shows correct duration, show Tom Sawyer being quite short followed by Looney Tunes. However, the additional show information is input with wrong duration.
These things happen, I have this issue sometimes especially with the ARTE channel, program schedule is correct but show info gives wrong duration.
I am sorry but as I already mentioned, there's nothing you can do for this.

Whoops. So the big walk yesterday? The lovely one in the park with the dog? Just one problem. THE FIBRO STEAMROLLER. Yep, today I am paying for my excess, with every muscle aching as though I have the flu. It doesn't make sense (so much about fibro doesn't) but it apparently has something to do with the way that people with fibro don't get rid of lactic acid in their muscles properly. Or something. That's what the latest research says, anyway. All I know is everything hurts. Even my hair hurts. My eyelashes hurt, dammit.
Today the weather has turned and is threatening a storm later this arvo, and that doesn't help either – barometric pressure and joint pain being connected as I have mentioned before. Boring boring boring. I really need to find something else to write about but at the moment my life is about the little bit of university I do and the rest feels like just a whine about pain, with the occasional bit about the neighbours. That's really all I do, that and go to the doctors. Apart from that I'm exhausted. This is my life right now. Vertical and ventilated, remember, just need to accept that vertical and ventilated is a good day.
Mr B has been busy today: because it looks like we might get some rain, and because the right amount of time has passed, today was the day to scatter the seeds over Miss Kit Tern's grave. There will be a mix of blue flowers including swan river daisies, cornflowers, delphiniums and our old favourite, nigella damascena – love-in-the-mist. That's been my favourite flower ever since I asked my Nana what they were called. She had the blue variety planted on both sides of the path from the shed to the back door at the house in Leeton, under the mulberry tree and grape vines, and every year they would self-seed and come up again.
I only learned about the other possible colours – pink, white, lavender – when I saw them on a seed packet a few years ago, and I don't care for them very much. The blue of love-in-the-mist is part of the attraction. That, and their hardiness: once they're established they seem to manage pretty well on their own. We have some growing near the back patio that get the occasional splash when Mr B waters the carnivorous plants, but otherwise are coping in a dry season so far.
(If I was downstairs I'd dredge up some photos of artwork I did when I was at TAFE of some embroidery I did based on love-in-the-mist; but I'm not attached to that hard drive at the moment. AAAAAND that reminds me that I really ought to be tackling the ^@%!*^&%@^%# sewing room anyway… )

The experts at the Seattle HCG Diet Clinic are there to help you reach your weight loss goals, no matter how insurmountable they might seem. Yet many make the mistake of psyching themselves out before they even start, thinking things like, "I will never be able to lose 150 pounds, so why should I even bother?" The fact of the matter is, setting smaller goals makes sense to begin with; and it doesn't take a whole lot of weight loss before you start noticing a huge difference in your body – and even better, there's a lot going on after you lose just 10 percent of your starting weight that you don't see.
Better Body Confidence
For starters, if you weigh 200 pounds and you lose 10 percent of that – 20 pounds – you will definitely notice the difference. Depending on your body type and where you lose the fat, that could drop you down two pants sizes! We probably don't need to stress the emotional benefits of feeling those once-tight jeans slip over your thighs and hips like they were tailor-made. And that spring in your step isn't just your imagination; you'll be literally walking lighter and with more confidence.
Improved Heart Health
It is incredible to read more about how a 10 percent weight loss has such an impact on the health of your heart. Reaching that manageable goal has been proven to lower both cholesterol and blood pressure, both of which are leading causes of heart disease. Imagine losing 15 pounds and moving from the at-risk group for heart failure to the low risk group in one fell swoop.
Lowered Risk of Other Diseases
The benefits of losing 10 percent aren't just in your heart; they are all over your body, such as your gallbladder, prostate and colon, three body parts which are most commonly affected by being overweight or obese. Yet even that minor weight loss lowers the risk for cancer in all three areas.

Unanswered: Filemaker on Mac and PC
I want to use Filemaker, and I will create and operate the program on a Mac. My question is if I can use the database on both a Mac and PC. For example, can I install Filemaker on both a Mac and PC and then store a database in the cloud and then use it on either machine? My scenario is that I want to use the Mac as much as possible, but there will also be times that I have to use a PC and also will need to use the database .
Thanks for your help!

I program solver for Burgers equation, Shallow water and Euler equations. Everything works good, but one thing not - 2nd and 4th order Runge-Kutta method. I get bigger error with 2nd and 4th order RK method than with Euler method. I tested methods on ODEs and everything is good, but for PDEs not :-(.
Don't you know where can be error? Or is there anyone, who could help me via email and look on my code?
Thanks for any advice.

A major debut from an award-winning writer - an epic family saga set against the magic and the rhythms of the Virgin Islands.
In the early 1900s an important ship sinks into the Caribbean Sea, just as the Virgin Islands are transferred from Danish to American rule. Orphaned by the sunk vessel are two sisters and their half-brother, now faced with an uncertain identity and future. Each of them is unusually beautiful, and each is in possession of a particular magic that will either sink or save them.
Chronicling three generations of an island family from 1916 to the 1970s, Land of Love and Drowning is a novel of love and magic, set against the emergence of Saint Thomas into the modern world. Wholly unique, with echoes of Toni Morrison, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, and the author's own Caribbean family history, the story is told in a language and rhythm that evokes an entire world and way of life and love. Following the Bradshaw family through 60 years of fathers and daughters, mothers and sons, love affairs, curses, magical gifts, loyalties, births, deaths, and triumphs, Land of Love and Drowning is a gorgeous, vibrant debut by an exciting, prize-winning young writer.

ViroPharma Purchases Exclusive Option to Acquire Meritage Pharma
EXTON, Pa. and SAN DIEGO, Dec. 22, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- ViroPharma Incorporated (NASDAQ: VPHM) today announced that it has entered into an exclusive option to acquire Meritage Pharma, Inc., a private company based in San Diego, CA focused on developing oral budesonide suspension (OBS) as a treatment for eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), a chronic inflammatory disorder of the esophagus.
ViroPharma has paid an initial $7.5 million, and has agreed to provide Meritage up to an additional $12.5 million for the development and exclusive right to purchase the company at predefined terms upon the completion of a series of clinical and regulatory deliverables. Meritage will utilize the funding to conduct additional Phase 2 clinical assessment of OBS. After receipt of final Phase 2 data and concurrence with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on an acceptable clinical endpoint for the Phase 3 program, ViroPharma will have an option to acquire Meritage at ViroPharma's discretion for $69.9 million plus the potential for additional payments upon the achievement of certain clinical and regulatory milestones.
As described below, in an initial Phase 2 dose-ranging clinical trial in pediatric patients with EoE, OBS demonstrated a statistically significant reduction of esophageal eosinophilia. Clinical symptom assessment was confounded by the use of a multi-symptom assessment tool and high placebo response.
EoE is a newly recognized chronic disease that is increasingly being diagnosed in children and adults. It is characterized by inflammation and accumulation of a specific type of immune cell, called an eosinophil, in the esophagus. EoE patients may have persistent or relapsing symptoms, which include dysphagia (difficulty in swallowing), nausea, stomach pain, chest pain, heartburn, loss of weight and food impaction.
"Our interest in Meritage is consistent with V


text: I was at the local range yesterday and two guys at the table/bench to my left were shooting semi autos (I believe they were .308s). Anyway, their empty brass was being ejected and thrown from their rifles right at me. The hot sharp cases were hitting me, my spotting scope and my rifle. I noticed that down the line, others were experiencing this same problem, except that they did not see it as a problem. They just ignored it and kept shooting. So, I didn't say anything. I just tolerated it until they left. Then I got back to serious shooting. I had my Ruger #1 single shot and I did not want it to get all nicked up by ejected brass. I don't mind an honest nick or two through normal use or hunting, but this was totally unnecessary. I also got hit in the face and if I was not wearing glasses, I could have lost an eye. I should have asked the range officer about it and I will next time I am there, but is this normal for most ranges? Is there some kind of rule that some ranges have about shooting autos? Do some ranges have a designated place for autos only? It just grinds my gears that I have to suffer because of some slob's "fun." cottontop

Cherry experiment
(1/2) > >>
Hey BA'ers! I'm doing an experimental procedure, and I thought I'd seek some critique.
A friend of mine has some great tasting cherries, I put about 2.5# in a Belgian wheat beer. The smell coming from it is very appetizing. Anyway, he brought me many more cherries today and I want to make a Cherry "pseudo wine". I say Pseudo wine because I want to use some Belgian Ale yeast I have. So here's what I'm going to do:
1) Mash cherries up with some blunt kitchen instrument (potato masher?)
2) Drain cherries utilizing sanitized strainer and/or nylon mesh bag.
3) Heat juice to "almost" boiling, so as to sanitize (I'm really not concerned if I get some beasties, I would appreciate a little sourness).
4) Cool down in a cold water bath.
5) Add to a 3 gallon carboy, add yeast.
6) ferment for about 3-4 weeks, and bottle (aging time will depend on my O.G.).
Any thoughts?
I wouldn't do the boil, ferment the whole pulp, strain at the end of primary.
Very good. Will the lack of a boil give me too much microflora?
You said you wouldn't mind sour. :P
You can hit it with K-metabisulfite.1/4tsp powder per 5 gallons.
If you're really scared, freezing could also be used to kill off the unwanted bacteria without changing the cherry juice.
Are you adding water/sugar to hit a specific gravity, or are you hoping to just ferment 100% juice?
Can you take a reading to see the sugar content of your juice before you start?
I'll throw out a dumb question:
If the skins of the cherries are intact, why not just soak the cherries in StarSan solution (1 oz in 5 gallons distilled H2O) for two minutes and strain out the cherries with a collander. It should kill the bugs.
I just don't know if the phosporic acids can penetrate the skins. If nobody has ever tried it, you could do a quick experiment with a handful of cherries first.

Robert Ebendorf
Lost and Found: Journey for Personal Adornment
Robert Ebendorf received his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree and his Master of Fine Arts degrees from University of Kansas. Bob is co-founder and past president of the Society of North American Goldsmiths and in 1995 he was awarded the American Craft Council Fellowship for his achievement in the field and commitment to the craft movement. His work is included in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Victoria and Albert Museum, the British Museum, the Mint Museum of Craft Design, and the Yale University Art Gallery in New Haven, among other collections. He has recently retired from East Carolina University in Greenville, North Carolina, where he served as the Belk Distinguished Professor in the Arts and in 2010 was awarded the North Carolina Governor's Award for Fine Arts.
This workshop will explore a wide range of concepts applicable to personal adornment and the narrative object. Working with both traditional and alternative materials – silver, copper, wire, recycled materials and found objects – participants will fashion objects of personal importance, expression, and adornment. We will also investigate the use of color and collage as a design tool. Through demonstrations, lectures, and hands-on projects, we'll discover the many methods of selection, integration, and assembly inherent to this limitless range of materials. The class will be centered around lectures and demonstrations, with plenty of time for individual attention.

Netanyahu: Iran's anti-Israel Stance Proves Our Need to Be Recognized as Jewish State
Earlier on Saturday, Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei called Israel 'a cancerous tumor' that should be removed.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Saturday that the vociferous anti-Israel comments made by Iranian Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's earlier in the day "strengthen the steadfastness of my government on the security needs of Israel's citizens and our demand that Israel be recognized as a Jewish state", Channel 10 reported.
Netanyahu also said that Israel would continue to seek peace while ensuring that conditions are in place to provide for the security of Israelis for generations to come.
Earlier on Saturday, Khamenei, speaking at an international conference in Tehran, called Israel a "cancerous tumor" that should be removed.
Khamenei was addressing the "5th International Conference in Support of the Palestinian Intifada", which was attended by senior Palestinian militants, including Hamas leader Khaled Meshal.
Khamenei assailed a two state solution for Israel and the Palestinians, saying the Palestinian bid for statehood at the United Nations is doomed to fail.
Khamenei said Palestinians should not limit themselves to seeking a country based on the pre-1967 borders because "all land belongs to Palestinians."
"Our claim is freedom of Palestine, not part of Palestine. Any plan that partitions Palestine is totally rejected," Khamenei said.
"Palestine spans from the river (Jordan) to the sea (Mediterranean), nothing less."
Meshal told the conference that "resistance" was the only option left for the Palestinians.
"Palestinians must resort to resistance no matter how costly it is, until Palestine is free and Israel is destroyed," Meshal said.
