What are your best practices and tips for using git to interface with a CVS repository?
I wrote up an answer to a similar question here.
This works suprisingly well when you're forced to continue to push changes into a central CVS repository.
I've only worked with Git-CVS interactions to demo Git for a friend, but it was very straightforward.
Note that the -x after -p is very important. This passes -x to cvsps. For more information please see the cvsps man page.
I wrote up the details of my own workflow for remote CVS, local Git
Slightly meta-answer. If you are forced to use git 'guerilla style', i.e. your company is stuck using cvs for the version control and you use git on your workstation to make life easier, you might consider doing something like this;
Calling this file 'cvs' and including it the path before the real CVS command. Otherwise you can have git commits older than the cvs ones, which isn't that useful...
If the upstream is 100% in CVS (e.g., OpenBSD, or many of its subprojects like mdocml or ports-readmes), and especially if it's as rusty as the OpenBSD CVS tree is (e.g., occasionally even having history rewrite), I find it quite useful to simply commit the underlying

The folks at Happiest Minds know that a healthy body leads to a happy mind. And the way to that was wearable tech.
This cool button delivers CIO stories to you on Facebook:
Hate your work place because it gives you no scope for any kind of physical activity? Forever tied to your workstation in that shady corner of the office? Or even worse, convinced that your occasional trip to the coffee machine is more than what your body needs? You probably don't work at the Happiest Minds campus in Bangalore.
The IT services and consulting firm is among the first in the country to use wearable technology to ensure the physical wellness of its staffers. Today, close to half of the company's workforce uses a wearable pedometer, produced by Bangalore-based start-up GetActive, that monitors their physical activity.
At a time when wearable tech is still largely restricted to the consumer world, Happiest Minds is nudging it into the enterprise.
The stylish device, when worn by an employee, tracks the number of steps they take, the distance they cover, and the number of calories they burn. It also tracks how much they sleep. But unlike many wearables in the market, this pedometer allows users to see their activities on an interactive dashboard. The device can be directly connected to a laptop to analyze the data.
"This unique feature allows us to do many more things with the device," says Gaurav Saini, Associate Director of People Practice team at Happiest Minds. "We conduct 'virtual walkathons' for employees. Our recent 2,000 km-walkthon from Bangalore to Mumbai had many active participants. The dashboard is integrated with google maps, so people can see the places covered and compare their progress with the 'buddies' who are competing with them."
The device ensures users achieve the ideal scenario of at least 10,000-12,000 steps a day. While Happiest Minds have many other initiatives to ensure the physical wellness of its people, like Yoga and Tai Chi, nothing can match the novelty and uniqueness of a wearable device. The 'fun' factor is the added advantage.
What's more, walking is now an act of philanthropy at Happiest Minds. Through a tie-up with a local NGO, the company's management converts 'steps' in to meals for under-privileged children. Every 1,000 steps covered by the employees is considered as one meal by the company management. All the more reason for walking!
Whether it's a cool new startup or a well-established tech giant, culture is a huge part of success in the tech industry,. But there are common problems with company culture that span the entire industry -- and it's hurting productivity.

My comment relates to the hotel Zugbruecke as well as to Hotels.com. I booked the hotel and prepaid for it, however at check-out , although I showed the reservation in which it was stated explicitly that the booking is guaranteed and paid for with free breakfast, they claimed that they did not get this information and charged me for the hotel and the breakfasts. I paid fully the fare and stated that will ask compensation. I tried to call the hotel according to the number supplied on the receipt - to no avail. Can anyone answer and resolve the impasse? At this moment I was charged TWICE.
this was a superb hotel. The dinner buffet was amazing as well as the free breakfast buffet in the morning. Not only were there robes and sauna towels waiting on our bed for our arrival but the hotel also has sauna, indoor pool, whirlpool, oxyegen and relaxition room, and a full service massage and spa area. We might just come back there just to stay in the hotel.
Perfect location for a quiet getaway. The hotel location was located in a small village but close enough to Deutsches Eck which is worth checking out. The staff at the hotel spoke english and were very helpful as to what was around. There was a castle and several beautiful hiking trails within a walking distance of the hotel. Hotel room was very clean and modern, the only downside was the lack of queen bedrooms. Double beds (pushed together) kept moving apart which made it very interesting. Overall, the hotel is great, but the atmosphere of the town and the quietness around makes the whole thing even better.
We stayed here for a visit to Koblenz and the Rhine and its position 10 km outside the city in the countryside was perfect. The room was medium size and had everything you could need provided. We asked for extra pillows and these were provided immediately. The restaurant food was excellent.
This is a lovely hotel set in a very peaceful valley surrounded by beautiful forrest. We stayed in a basic room that was more than adequate. Breakfast was the best we've ever had at any hotel and the wellness area and pool were superb. Would highly recommend.

The present invention relates to an improved cervical collar or brace In general, cervical collars or braces are worn to correct or ease discomfort from spinal injuries, particularly spinal injuries in the area of the neck vertebrae. In particular, cervical braces are commonly used to rectify any spinal damage caused as a result of whiplash injury.
There are a number of types of such braces. For example, one type comprises a relatively stiff collar worn around the neck, which extends between the shoulders and the jawbone and chin of the wearer. While such collars do give a certain amount of support, they do not provide for adjustment to accommodate varying lengths of different people's necks. Thus, on some they may be relatively comfortable, while on others they can cause considerable discomfort. For example, in the case of an individual with a relatively short neck, such a collar may cause the chin to be retained at a totally incorrect angle. Further, for an individual with a relatively long neck, the chin may also be supported at the wrong angle. A further problem with such collars is that they are clearly visible for all to see and, in general, are relatively unsightly. Furthermore, because they are worn completely around the neck, there is very little circulation of air between the collar and the neck. Accordingly, they tend to induce perspiration in the neck area which further leads to discomfort. Various attempts have been made to overcome the problems of such collars. Examples of such attempts are given in the following patent specifications, namely, U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,724,452, 3,945,376, 4,383,523 and 4,628,913, and UK Patent No. 2,233,900. In general, these cervical braces comprise a harness for mounting on the torso of the body, and a chin support member for supporting the chin of the wearer. The chin support member is mounted on a support bar which is adjustable upwardly and downwardly to accommodate wearers with different lengths of neck. However, while these devices partly overcome the problems of stiff collars in that at least the height at which the wearer's chin is supported can be adjusted, nonetheless they do not provide for the different positions which individuals chins may take up, in other words, the position of a wearer's chin front to back. Accordingly, while the chin supports may be adjusted to accommodate different heights of chins, this does not ensure that the chin support will accurately or correctly engage the wearer's chin. For example, if a wearer has a chin which projects more than normally, or a wearer has a chin which projects less than normally, then the chin support will not adequately support the wearer's chin.
Another known device is the "halo" brace. Such a device also has a harness for mounting on the torso and upright members which extend to the top of the wearer's head. A "halo" or ring is attached to the upright members which encircles the head in the forehead area. Four equally-spaced adjusting screws are installed in the halo and screwed toward the wearer's head. Depressions are made in the skull to receive the adjusting screws. The screws are tightened so as to restrict movement of the head and neck. However, the device is not very effective and, in addition, is bulky and unsightly. Furthermore, problems can develop with a single skull depression requiring total refitting of the device.
An improved cervical brace is described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,793,334. This device overcame some of the problems with cervical braces, namely, the chin support member was adjustable both up and down, as well as front to back. However, the chin support member in this device was not comfortable as it "clamped" onto the wearer's chin. In addition, although a support is provided for the wearer's occiput, it is not sufficiently adjustable. Furthermore, the two-point support member for the chin support is not stable, i.e., it is flexible in the left-right direction. In addition, it has a complex harness assembly and requires changing the settings to remove the device.
In addition, a cervical collar is disclosed in Arch Phys. Med. Rehabil., Vol. 73, December 1992, p. 573-575, made of rigid polythene, anatomically shaped with a cut out piece anterolaterally for ventilation. An anterior screw allows adjustment in length to variable neck height and the posterior Velcro� fastening allows adaptation to embrace all neck diameters. However, the device does not afford sufficient combinations of adjustability, rigidity (i.e., immobility) and ventilation for the purposes presently proposed.
In my prior patent, U.S. Pat. No. 5,088,482 (the subject matter of which is incorporated herein by reference thereto), a cervical brace is disclosed which utilizes the advantages found in U.S. Pat. No. 4,793,334, and overcomes the deficiencies in the aforementioned prior art. This patented cervical brace comprises a torso engaging member having a back portion and a front portion. The front portion in use being adjacent to the front of the torso and the rear portion, in use, being adjacent to the back of the torso. A chin support member is provided for engaging and supporting the chin of the wearer, together with mounting means including an adjustable and releasable strut and brace assembly for mounting the chin support member to the torso engaging member so that the chin support member is easily adjustable and is movable upwardly and downwardly in addition to backwardly and forwardly relative to the torso engaging member for accommodating, in use, different positions of a wearer's chin.
The present invention is directed toward an improvement of such a cervical brace or collar.
Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide an improved cervical brace which comprises a chin support member for supporting a wearer's chin which can be adjusted to engage a patient's chin accurately and snugly, i.e., it is an object of the invention to provide a cervical brace in which the chin support member is adjustable not only upwardly and downwardly but also forwardly and backwardly relative to the wearer.
It is also an object of the invention to provide an improved cervical brace which, as well as supporting the chin, also adjustably supports the wearer's occiput, and thus the entire head, i.e., the head support member is adjustable upwardly, downwardly, forwardly and rearwardly.
Another object of the invention is to provide a cervical brace which can be relatively easily fitted and removed.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide such a cervical brace which provides a more comfortable fit for the wearer while, at the same time, providing the degree of immobility required of the patient's neck.
Yet a further object is to provide a cervical brace with a plurality of adjustments that can easily be made by an individual with relatively little training with the device.
It is a more particular object of the invention to provide a cervical brace which provides support by non-intrusive means, i.e., fits externally on the wearer, is X-ray transmissive and provides essentially 360� of air ventilation around the wearer's neck.
Certain of the foregoing and related objects are readily attained in a cervical collar which includes a generally annular support brace which, in use, is receivable about and circumferentially surrounds a wearer's neck and is generally supportable on the wearer's shoulders and upper torso. The support brace includes a pair of vertically-spaced-apart, interconnected and generally horizontally-disposed, arcuate, upper and lower support members each having a front central portion and a pair of rear opposite terminal end portions which, in use, are disposed generally adjacent to the front and rear of the wearer's neck, respectively, and adjustable and releasable rear strap means for joining said terminal end portions of said support members together. Chin support means are provided for engaging and supporting the chin of the wearer, as well as mounting means for adjustably mounting the chin support means on the support brace.
Preferably, the support brace includes a pair of generally vertically-extending rear struts interconnecting the rear terminal end portions of the support members and the strap means, in turn, interconnects the rear struts. Advantageously, the strap means includes at least one strap disposed over and generally above the terminal end portions of the upper support member so as to be positioned to support the back of the head of the wearer.
Most advantageously, the strap means includes a second rear strap spaced below the first strap.
In a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention, the support members comprise plastic resilient tubes, preferably made of PVC, and the strap means also comprise plastic tubes. The plastic tube straps each have a plurality of spaced-apart adjustment holes formed therethrough and the strap means includes releasable fasteners for joining the tubes via the adjustment holes to the rear struts.
Most desirably, the support brace includes a pair of generally vertically-extending, spaced-apart front struts interconnecting the front central portions of the support members. The front struts each preferably comprise a turnbuckle for adjusting the spacing between the support members.
In a further preferred embodiment, the mounting means includes means for pivotably supporting the chin support means. The means for pivotably supporting the chin support means advantageously includes a generally horizontally-disposed pivot support plate adjustably mounted on the collar support, with the chin support means being pivotably mounted on the pivot support plate.
It is especially desirable that the chin support means includes a generally horizontally-disposed chin support plate and a pair of generally vertically-disposed lateral end walls, each joined to an opposite lateral end of the chin support plate. The lateral end walls includes pivot means for pivotably mounting the lateral end walls on the pivot support plate. Releasable locking means are also provided for locking the lateral end walls and, in turn, the chin support plate at a predetermined and adjustable pivot angle with respect to the pivot support plate. Most advantageously, the lateral end walls have a plurality of spaced-apart holes formed therethrough and the pivot support plate has a pair of opposite lateral side walls, each with a threaded throughbore formed therein. The releasable locking means include a pair of threaded locking pins each of which is releasably received in one of said holes and throughbores so as to lock the lateral end walls of the chin support plate at a fixed pivot angle with respect to the pivot support plate.
In yet a further embodiment of the invention, the chin support plate and the lateral end walls have resilient chin rest means mounted thereon configured to generally conform to and provide direct support for the wearer's chin. The mounting means preferably includes adjustable-length side support braces, one end of each of which is attached to an opposite lateral end wall of the chin support means and an opposite rear strut of the support brace. Most desirably, one end of the side support braces is connected to either the rear struts or the lateral end walls via pivot means.
In a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention, the collar additionally includes a pair of head support members for engaging and supporting the occiput of the wearer and mounting means for adjustably mounting the head support members on support braces and/or the chin support means. Most desirably, the mounting means comprises two pairs of adjustable-length head support struts, one pair of each of which is connected, at their first ends, to an opposite head support member, at their opposite ends, and to one of the rear support struts and the lateral end wall of the chin support means. Preferably, the head support struts are connected to the head support member via pivot means. Most advantageously, the collar additionally includes releasable strap means connecting the pair of head support members, and the collar may additionally include strap means for connecting the support brace to the wearer's torso. Finally, it is also extremely advantageous that the annular support brace, chin support means and mounting means are fabricated from X-ray transmissive materials.
Other objects and features of the present invention will become apparent from the following detailed description considered in connection with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood, however, that the drawings are designed for the purpose of illustration only and not as a definition of the limits of the invention.
In the drawings, wherein similar reference characters denote similar elements throughout the several views:
FIG. 1 is a front and left side perspective view of a cervical collar according to the invention showing the same being worn by a patient;
FIG. 2 is a front and right side perspective view of the cervical collar;
FIG. 3 is a rear and left side perspective view of the cervical collar;
FIG. 4 is an enlarged, fragmentarily-illustrated perspective view, in part section, of the chin support assembly and support base;
FIG. 5 is an enlarged, fragmentarily-illustrated plan view, in part section, of the chin support assembly;
FIG. 6 is a side elevational view, in part section, of the chin support assembly, showing the pivotable adjustment thereof in phantom view; and
FIG. 7 is a side elevational view, in part section, of the chin support assembly pivoted to a position to support the chin of the patient, shown in phantom line.
Turning now in detail to the drawings, and in particular to FIGS. 1-3 thereof, therein illustrated is a cervical brace according to the invention, indicated generally by reference numeral 10. The cervical collar 10 includes a generally annular support brace, generally designated 20, which, in use, is receivable about and circumferentially surrounds a wearer's neck and is generally supportable on the wearer's shoulders and upper torso. The collar further includes a chin support assembly 40 and a head support assembly 60.
The support brace 20 includes a pair of vertically spaced-apart, interconnected and generally horizontally disposed arcuate lower and upper support members 21, 22 preferably made of transparent or translucent PVC plastic tubing having an outside diameter of approximately 7/8 of an inch, an inside diameter of approximately 1/2 an inch and a wall thickness of approximately 3/16 of an inch. The plastic tube is approximately 20 inches in length, which, of course, can be adjusted to the general neck size desired (i.e., infant to adult). The front portions of the lower and upper support members 21, 22 are interconnected via a pair of spaced-apart and angled front struts 23 in the form of turnbuckles. The turnbuckle struts 23 each comprise a lower left-handed, threaded rod 24 mounted in support member 21 and an upper right-handed, threaded member 25 mounted in upper support member 22, on both of which is received an internally-threaded, cylindrical sleeve 26. Upon turning, threaded, cylindrical sleeve 26 will either increase or decrease the effective length of the turnbuckle and, in turn, the spacing between support members 21 and 22, the purpose of which will be described in greater detail hereinafter.
As seen best in FIGS. 2 and 3, the rearwardly-disposed terminal end portions of the support members 21 and 22 are joined together via a pair of generally L-shaped, interiorly-padded rear struts 27 each composed of a back plate 27' and a side plate 27". The struts 27 are preferably rearwardly tilted approximately 65 degrees so that the upper support member 22 is similarly angularly and rearwardly offset from the lower support member 21. A pair of spaced apart rear straps 28, in the form of PVC tubing, interconnects the rear struts 27. The PVC plastic tubing preferably has an outside diameter of 9/16 of an inch, an inside diameter of 7/16 of an inch, and walls of approximately 1/16 of an inch, and is approximately 16 inches long. The tube straps 28 are provided with a series of spaced-apart adjustment holes 29 along their terminal ends by which the same can be releasably fastened to the either the back plate 27' or side plate 27" of the rear struts 27 via a threaded pins 30 mounted on the rear struts 27 and corresponding nuts 31; preferably the lower strap would be affixed to the back plate 27' (not shown for purposes of clarity).
Alternatively, the rear strap could comprise a belt having VELCRO� hook-like fasteners (not shown), which in turn, could mate with the VELCRO� loop-type fasteners 32 mounted on rear struts 27, depending upon the degree of support and immobility required by the doctor for the particular patient (i.e., the plastic tube straps 28 providing a firmer, more rigid, yet comfortable support for the patient's head, as opposed to a VELCRO� strap). In this regard, it should be noted that the top strap 28 is positioned over the top of the L-shaped, rear struts 27 (and above stem 66 and nut 67, which serve as abutment stops) and, in this position, will provide a firm support for the rear of the patient's head.
As also shown, the cervical collar can be further affixed to the torso of the patient via additional straps 33 affixed to the rear struts 27, for example, via threaded pins 34 and threaded bores 35, the latter of which is provided in the rear struts. The lower portion of the straps could be attached to a chest support assembly, such as that shown in U.S. Pat. No. 3,724,452, or they could be drawn underneath the patient's arms in a criss-cross fashion and back to the front of the collar, wherein there could be reattached via VELCRO� fastening means 36 to the lower support member 21.
As shown best in FIGS. 1 and 4-7, the chin support assembly 40 includes a generally horizontally-disposed pivot support plate 41 supported above the upper support member 22 and mounted on the threaded rods 25 of struts 23, which extend through support member 22. A generally horizontally-disposed chin support plate 42 is connected to a pair of arcuate, lateral end walls 43, which in turn, are pivotably mounted on the pivot support plate 41 via hinge or pivot element 44. The lateral end walls 43 also have a series of spaced-apart adjustment holes 45 by which the doctor can adjust the pivot angle of the chin support plate 42 relative to the pivot support plate 41. The angular position of two plates is set by the provision of a set screw 46 receivable through one of the adjustment holes 45 and receivable in a bore (not shown) provided in the end wall of the pivot support plate 41. In addition, a pair of threaded rods 46 are provided, which are receivable in angled threaded bores of both of the pivot support plate 41 and the chin support plate 42, so as to securely fix the pivot angle between the support plates and provide additional rigidity and immobility thereto. The rods 46 can also be individually adjusted to effectively tilt the chin support plate 42 laterally, if desired.
The chin support plate 42 has a plastic, generally cylindrical, horizontally-disposed chin support bar 59 mounted thereon, on which the wearer's chin may rest. In addition, the chin support plate 42 and the lateral end members 43 are provided with relatively soft, molded foam cushioning means, or chin support means 47, disposed rearwardly of the chin support bar 59, on which the chin of the wearer may also rest comfortably (see, FIGS. 1 and 7). As can be appreciated, the chin rest 47 can be modified to generally conform to the profile of the wearer's chin.
As seen in FIGS. 1-3 and 5, the lateral end walls 43 are preferably further connected to the rear struts 27 via a pair of adjustable-length side support braces or struts 48, one end of each of which is coupled to opposite lateral end wall 43, via pivot and length adjustment means, and to the rear strut 27, via a threaded pin 66 and nut 67. The adjustable-length side brace 48 includes a generally L-shaped support lug 49 having a threaded bore which, in turn, receives a threaded rod 50 which is threadably affixed to a U-shaped yoke 51, the arms of which are pivotably connected to one end of the side support brace 48 via a generally vertically-oriented pivot pin 52. The threaded rod 50 can be turned to adjust the effective length of the side brace to either lengthen or shorten the same and is fixed in place by nuts 54. The hinge or pivot support of the side support brace 48 provides for greater adaptability and adjustment to conform to the particular shape of the head of the user.
The collar optionally includes a head support assembly 60 which includes a pair of rectangular, padded head support members 61 for engaging and supporting the ossiput of the wearer on the support brace 20 and the chin support 40. Two pairs of adjustable-length head support braces or struts 62 constructed in a similar fashion to that of the side support braces 48 are provided to mount the head support members 61, 62. One pair of the head support struts are connected to one head support member 61, and the other pair is connected to the opposite head support member 61.
In particular, each of the struts 62 of each pair includes a lower end having a series of spaced-apart, adjustable holes 63 formed therethrough by which one of the struts of the pair can be attached to one of the lateral end walls 43 and chin support means 47 via a threaded stem 64 (see FIG. 5) and nut 65 and the other of the struts can be attached to one of the rear struts 27 via a threaded stem 66 and nut 67. The upper ends of each of the struts 62 is pivotably attached via a generally horizontally-disposed pivot pin 68 to the arms of a U-shaped yoke 69 which, in turn, is connected via a threaded stem 70 to an L-shaped leg 71 attached to one of the head support members 61. The threaded stem 71 can be adjusted by turning it to lengthen or shorten, respectively, the effective length of the head support strut 62, and it can be locked in place via nuts 72. Here again, the angle and length adjustment enables a more individual and proper fit for the particular wearer.
The head support assembly further includes a releasable strap 73, which interconnects the pair of head support members 61 to provide further rigidity to the patient's head. The outer face of the head support members can include VELCRO� loop fasteners 74, and the ends of the strap would be similarly provided with the complementary VELCRO� hook fasteners 75 for releasible attachment thereto.
Most desirably, the various components of the present cervical collar are fabricated from X-ray transmissive materials, such as plastic. It is also preferable that the plastic employed be transparent or translucent so that it will not be noticeable for aesthetic reasons.
As can be appreciated, the present invention provides a widely versatile cervical collar which can be easily and universally adjusted to support the particular size and shape head of the wearer via its various adjustment features, which allow forward, rearward, upward, downward and angular adjustment to accommodate differently dimensioned patients' heads. In addition, the use of plastic tubing for the support members and straps surprisingly provide a highly effective combination of rigidity and resiliency to provide a comfortable, yet medically proper, fit, which immobilizes the patient's head and neck.
Accordingly, while only one embodiment of the present invention have been shown and described, it is to be understood that many changes and modifications may be made thereunto without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.

This is my progress on my mini stocking advent calendar. I'm a bit behind, but this is exactly why I wanted to start early with the goal of knitting two a month- so it wouldn't ever get too overwhelming. The top four stockings are the newest ones, they represent March and April's contributions. I haven't knit the ones that are supposed to be knit in May and June, but I will get to them soon! I have 12 different colours (plus the contrasting white), which would mean there will be two of each colour when I'm all finished. I so love the idea of having an advent calendar for the kids, it's a tradition I always adored but we didn't really do when I was a child- except for those fun little chocolate advent calendars! There's the secret, of course- I say I'm knitting an advent calendar for the kids, but clearly I'm doing it for myself. I mean, just look at them:
I haven't wet blocked them yet, they are all going to get a bath together when they are done and be pinned out properly, so I anticipate a bit of growth and evening out of the stranded designs.
The stockings are all knit in Tanis Fiber Arts blue label, as part of a mini skein set. The new colours are Pink Grapefruit, Royal Flush, Garnet, and Grape; Knit Picks Stroll the contrasting white. I've also been knitting little loops to attach to the stockings, but I need to source some tiny white buttons for them.
Although it's strange to knit these flat and seam them up the back, it's very fast going. I'm so please with how many little charts the pattern has, too- it adds to the joy of making these tiny stockings, which are so fun that I am actually looking forward to Christmas this year already! Wait, can I even say that when it's June? Maybe I'll enjoy summer first.

Accompanying poetry to my artwork Swift
expansion vision dream meditation thought heaven being self awareness joy richard g witham withamphoto poem poetry tanka senryu nirvana
Love it!!
Thank you Lynn :-)
Los versos me encantan…La creación bellamente impecable….. Artista-Genial…….. Richard…..!
Mil gracias Liliana. Es uno de mis temas favoritos por el momento – como logramos ahora el júbilo y la paz del cielo. Creo que la respuesta esta en la pregunta (Por medio de la paz y la felicidad – y obviamente el amor)
Such a mystical poetry, Richard….and the image is so hauntingly beautiful….I just love it. Who knows….? maybe the spirits are there, appearing behind the painting of the walls, being pushed by our own desires to feel accompanied. This might be the Door of Perception, via love and confidence in our own.Rosa
Thank you Rosa for these thoughtful comments. I think you are right about the door of perception being love and confidence in ourselves – perhaps silence too as it allows perception by lack of hindrance. Your metaphor "Door of Perception" also gives me another idea for new artwork.
Agradezco mucho tu apoyo Rosa. Un abrazote para ti :-)
A wise man once said …. Now I understand The writing on the wall …..
lovely sentiment Richard
Thanks Barbara. I believe it does take a wise person to understand the writing on the wall :-)
Thanks Kathilee :-)
such wisdom, spoken so clearly, Richard ~ it's the gentle voice that speaking to us, all along…sometimes we just need to pay attention and listen Lovely reminder visiting your poetry this morning…beautiful art to marry ~ the waves of bubbling rainbows and seated within this sense of being very centered xxx
Yes, sometimes simple and clear is best. We humans tend to complicate with thought and analysis when all we really need to do is turn off the mind and listen. Thanks as always for your attention and great comments Linda :-)

North American freshwater fishes were studied to determine whether they displayed the same relationships between log (geographical range size) and log (body size) and the same pattern of range shape as found among North American birds and mammals. The forces that produce these patterns were also investigated. The log (geographical range size) : log (body size) relationship was analysed for 121 North American freshwater fish species. Thirty-two imperilled species were compared with 89 non-imperilled species to determine if the overall relationship could result from differential extinction. Range geometries were analysed, within and among habitat guilds, to determine if general patterns could be detected. The log (geographical range size) : log (body size) pattern among freshwater fish species was triangular and qualitatively similar to that found for North American birds and mammals. The results suggest that below a minimum geographical range, the likelihood of extinction increases dramatically for freshwater fishes and that this minimum range size increases with body size. The pattern of fish species' range shapes differs from that found for other North American vertebrate taxa because, on average, fish possess much smaller ranges than terrestrial species and most fish species' geographical ranges extend further on a north–south axis than on an east–west axis. The log (geographical range size) : log (body size) pattern reveals that fish species' geographical ranges are more constrained than those of terrestrial species. The triangular relationship may be caused by differential extinction of species with large bodies and small geographical ranges as well as higher speciation rates of small-bodied fish. The restricted geographical ranges of freshwater fishes gives them much in common with terrestrial species on oceanic islands. Range shape patterns within habitat guilds reflect guild-specific historical and current ecological forces. The overall pattern of range shapes emerges from the combination of ecologically different subunits.

Highpoint 1740 SATA-II Controller - PCI isn't Dead yet
Final Thoughts
While PCI Express is the future, it's still nice to see Highpoint adding entry level storage solutions on the PCI bus for those who have older systems without PCI Express slots, which there are quite a few servers and gamers out there, with such configuration.
RAID is now common place, and it takes a lot to stand out in the crowd. Highpoint's PCI controller does a good job and while it won't offer any performance records especially in a RAID array due to the limited bandwidth of PCI, it's the first PCI based solution we have seen to offer SATA 2.5 compliance, which gives you NCQ and 3Gbps transfer rates.
Overall if you are looking for a cheap and effective controller, this is definitely one for you.
- Pros
Supports older PCI based systems
SATA 2.5 specs support
Native Command Queuing (NCQ)
Supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 and JBOD
Affordable price
Allows for spanning across two cards
Drivers for a lot of operating systems (even Vista)
- Cons
SATA 1 cables rather than SATA-II
- Latest Pricing
Rating - 8.5 out of 10

This is a split board - You can return to the Split List for other boards.
Not bad, just outclassed.You are really dedicated to Charizard.
It really depends on what you're defining as bad. Normally, if one pokemon is always outclassed by another pokemon, for the specific role, you are using a pokemon that is bad because it is worse than the other pokemon. It's like if everyone gets A's in school, than a B is considered bad (which is the concept of grade inflation). Pretty much, something is only bad because something else does it better. In the case that a pokemon is completely outclassed, than yes, it is bad.
I say no. While all bad pokemon are outclassed, it doesn't work the other way around. If there were a pokemon that was exactly the same as mewtwo, but had 5 less base Sp. Atk, it would be stupid to say it's bad. It could function in Ubers just as well as mewtwo could, there just wouldn't be a point to using it.

any advice?
Comments (2)
Don't push potty-training if she's not ready...it's totally okay to wait! Pushing it will only make it a battle that will continue and make it harder later. Leave that one alone and come back to it in a couple months.
Breastfeeding is up to you at this point...if you're not unhappy doing it, then keep it up as long as everyone is happy. If you need to quit, then you can either go cold turkey and tell her mommy's milk is all gone, or you can gradually phase it out by telling her she can only have it at certain times.
The only one I'd push is the bottle, and I would just be firm and deal with the crying for a little while. Tell her bottles are for babies and they are all gone, and she'll get over it eventually.
2 is a hard age, but you're the boss!

R: 10/14 VBA2C success at 39+6
Twos are tough for sure. I think at this point you have to decide which battle you want to fight. For me, it would be the bottle. It will suck for a couple, three days but eventually she will get over it. You have to be more stubbord then the toddler. (I keep telling this to myself as well)

In a statement given outside New Broadcasting House, Entwistle said: "I have decided that the honourable thing to do is to step down," BBC reported.
Entwistle said the Newsnight report, which wrongly implicated ex-senior Tory Lord McAlpine should never have been broadcast. It covered cases of child abuse at north Wales care homes.
In a statement given at 9.00 p.m., he said: "In the light of the fact that the director general is also the editor in chief and ultimately responsible for all content, and in the light of the unacceptable journalistic standards of the Newsnight film broadcast Friday Nov 2, I have decided that the honourable thing to do is to step down from the post of director general."
Entwistle said when he was appointed to the role, he was confident BBC trustees had chosen the best candidate for the post.
"However the wholly exceptional events of the past few weeks have led me to conclude that the BBC should appoint a new leader," he said.
With his sudden resignation, Entwistle, who took up the post of director general Sep 17, turned the shortest-ever serving BBC director general.
In an earlier report, an ex-Tory politician was accused of sex abuse by a victim (name withheld for legal reasons), who was shown a photo in the 1990s which led to his accusation, but found out Friday that he was accusing the wrong person.
Although not naming Lord McAlpine, the programme falsely hinted that the former Tory treasurer of the Margaret Thatcher era was the offender, Xinhua reported.
Entwistle offered his apology after the scandal, saying that the programme should not have been broadcast. He was, however, under fire for knowing nothing about the Newsnight report in advance.
This was the second occasion when Entwistle was caught in the mire recently, after Britain was stunned by the child abuse scandal by former TV presenter Jimmy Savile. He was then ridiculed for his ignorance.

I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you so VERY much for providing us with such a great experience yesterday. We talked for hours after the meeting; all of us were very impressed. I will either assume or hope that Cork realizes the gem of employees they have! Your professionalism, industry expertise, mannerism, patience, and knowledge set you (and Cork) apart from the competition. Our meeting with you was not just informative, but fun. The quality of the food speaks for itself but it was your energy and excitement that made the experience quite different and we knew after talking with YOU, we would be signing the contract! Again, Thank YOU. You acted like an owner and we know we are in really good hands.
