Greek holiday island battles to recover from deadly quake
KOS, Greece – The Greek holiday island of Kos on Saturday, July 22, was struggling to recover from a quake that killed two people and injured hundreds, with tourists facing flight delays and the damaged main harbor closed for a second day.
The 6.7-magnitude tremor also left hundreds more injured in the Turkish resort of Bodrum, about 20 kilometers (12 miles) across the sea from Kos.
"Given the amount of people outside at the time, having only two victims is a miracle," deputy Kos mayor David Yerasklis told Kathimerini daily.
The undersea quake struck at 1:31 am Friday (2231 GMT Thursday or 6:31 am Philippine time Friday) between Kos and Bodrum.
At the time, tourists in both places were out enjoying the nightlife.
On Kos, a wall collapsed on people in the courtyard of a nightclub, killing a 22-year-old Swede and a 39-year-old Turk.
Another 120 people were hurt, seven of them seriously, while some 360 people were injured in Bodrum – many after jumping out of windows.
The badly injured on Kos were flown to hospitals in Athens and Crete, including two men from Sweden and Norway who are in critical condition.
Medics said the Swede lost his lower leg, and doctors are struggling to save his other leg. The Norwegian has serious head injuries.
Kos is one of Greece's top travel destinations, and particularly popular with British, German and Scandinavian tourists.
No 'dramatization'
The quake struck at the height of the tourism season, and Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras on Friday warned against "dramatizing" the issue.
"Creating a climate of exaggeration and dramatization does not help restoring normality in daily life on the island," Tsipras' office said in a statement.
Government officials and expert divers on Saturday were inspecting Kos's harbor, which was cracked asunder by the tremor and has been declared unsafe for use.
But the rest of island's infrastructure network including roads is mostly intact, they stressed.
Ferries have been rerouted to the smaller port town of Kefalos in west Kos until repairs are made.
"All scheduled ferry services are now running from Kefalos, both incoming and outgoing," a Kos coastguard operator said.
Many people spent the night outdoors as a precaution, setting up tents in parks and squares, but officials noted that the majority of hotels were unaffected by the quake.
Deborah Kinnear, a 35-year-old psychologist from Glasgow, said her family initially thought of returning home but no flights were available.
"I think calm is being restored," she said after spending the night outdoors.
"Last night wasn't too bad. Hoping the worst is over... this has been one of our best holidays," she told Agence France-Presse.
At Kos airport, delays continued for a second straight day with over 50 outgoing flights scheduled. Over 20 flights had landed by midday Saturday.
"There is no problem at the hotels, the tourists have dealt calmly with developments," Constantina Svynou, head of the local hotelier association, told Ta Nea daily.
Monuments closed
Some areas of the port town were still without water, however.
No injuries were reported among the 800 migrants and refugees housed on the island, which is one of the main gateways into Europe for people fleeing war and poverty.
But asylum procedures have been curtailed until at least Monday as the quake damaged passport inspection facilities at the harbour.
Many archaeological and medieval monuments – including the medieval Knights of St John fortifications near where the deaths occurred – have also been closed until further notice.
The quake toppled the minaret of a historic 18th century mosque and knocked boulders off the fortifications.
Turkey and Greece sit on significant fault lines and have regularly been hit by earthquakes in recent years.
This year alone, Turkey's western Aegean coast was hit by several significant tremors.
In June, a 6.3-magnitude earthquake gutted a village on the Greek island of Lesbos, killing a woman and leaving more than 15 injured. – Rappler.com

Louis Zamperini's story to continue in faith-based 'Unbroken' sequel
'Chicago P.D.' star Samuel Hunt will portray the Olympian-turned-POW in the story centered on the last third of Laura Hillenbrand's book
Unbroken is getting an unexpected sequel.
The 2014 biopic directed by Angelina Jolie told the story of Louis Zamperini, an Olympian who faced harrowing experiences in World War II after his plane crashed over the Pacific and he became a Japanese prisoner of war. The film was based on Laura Hillenbrand's best-selling book of the same name, which chronicled Zamperini's real-life experiences.
EW has learned that a sequel, tentatively titled Unbroken: Path to Redemption, began shooting Tuesday under the direction of Harold Cronk (God's Not Dead). The film will explore the final third of Hillenbrand's book, which was noticeably absent from Jolie's adaptation, detailing the PTSD and alcoholism he suffered after returning home from his wartime imprisonment. Zamperini credits Billy Graham sermons with restoring his Christian faith, which allowed him to forgive his captors.
Universal 1440 Entertainment, a the production arm of Universal Pictures Home Entertainment, and faith-based production company The WTA Group will co-produce the project, with Pure Flix (God's Not Dead films) distributing.
"Before PTSD even had a name or diagnosis, far too many World War II veterans like Louie battled this invisible pain," Glenn Ross, General Manager and Executive Vice President of Universal 1440 Entertainment, said in a statement. "Unbroken: Path to Redemption" shines a powerful light on their struggles and how Louie became a beacon of hope to us all."
Bill Reeves, President of the WTA Group echoed these thoughts saying, "Audiences have long wanted to see the 'second part' of Louie Zamperini's story brought to life. How he found redemption, overcame deep personal struggles and ultimately forgave his captors makes for an inspiring, beautiful film."
Chicago P.D's Samuel Hunt will star as Zamperini, who died in 2014 shortly before the release of Unbroken, while Graham's own grandson Will Graham will portray the famous evangelist.
Christian audiences were previously offered additional content on a special Legacy of Faith DVD, but this is the first time this aspect of Zamperini's life will receive its own film. "Louie Zamperini's story in WW2 is well known from Unbroken the book and film," said producer Matt Baer, who also served as a producer on the 2014 film. "But the details of his post-war struggles and ultimate redemption are so stirring, they deserve to be told in a stand-alone project."

Life's a game. And the shih tzu loves playing it with you!
Whether the day's activity is splashing in the pool on a hot summer afternoon or playing an indoor game of hide-and-go-seek, the shih tzu is up for doing just anything.
Don't let their diminutive size and good looks fool you into thinking they're only lap warmers and show dogs. These little lions like to go for walks and if they don't get them, they're likely to spend time chasing their tails around the house They also successfully compete in the challenging sport of agility, where dogs navigate a timed obstacle course with their owners' help.
No matter what game you chose to play, as long as you enjoy it your shih tzu probably will, too.

Thoughts on Debugging IIS7
Hmm... it seems that ever since I made the blog entry about how to install PHP on IIS7, I seem to have become the default tech-support for PHP/IIS7 issues. That'll teach me to ever post beta guidance again - I just get more "help, I've fallen and I can't get up" questions, especially the sort when the user ignores the directions or thinks that their "modifications" to my instructions are just as good. Sigh... ;-)
I mean, is it too much to expect that if you want to modify the configuration files by hand or commandline that you should have write access to the configuration files? The IIS7 UI automatically asks you for privilege elevation, but when you go on the commandline you are obviously on your own. Or that if I give instructions for configuring the PHP ISAPI handler to run using the ISAPI Module that you merely change the handler to run the PHP CGI EXE handler with the ISAPI Module (and not the CGI Module)?
However, this also makes me realize that if you think IIS6 is confusing and difficult to troubleshoot, IIS7 is even more open-ended and hence harder to troubleshoot. You really have to know how IIS7 operates and what you are configuring (and why) when you make IIS7 configuration changes... because one wrong step and the server will stop working, by-design due to its open extensibility.
For example, when it comes to requests not resulting in the proper response, my first question is "what handler generated the response - static file handler or arbitrary dynamic file handler" - because that determines the expected response behavior. However, it is clearly not how users think - users think of it as a file to download, HTML page with a CSS stylesheet, or ASP.Net web application not working. Unfortunately, given how configurable (and misconfigurable) IIS7 can be, using the user's view of the issue will not be sufficient to troubleshoot, and we cannot make it any better/easier - there are so many things to misconfigure!
All it means is that if you customize beyond the default set of supported IIS7 configurations, you will pretty much be on your own. We try our best to make many module combinations work, but it will always be possible to configure IIS7 modules into a non-functional state.
For example:
- If you [accidentally] mangle the ordering of the StaticFileModule, DirectoryListingModule, and DefaultDocumentModule modules, IIS7 will either refuse to serve default documents (regardless of how you enabled/configured it), refuse to do 301 courtesy-redirect, or refuse to show a directory listing. If you just stare at the IIS7 configuration, you will tear your hair out trying to figure it out... and FREB or ETW tracing won't really help, either. You literally have to know how to order the modules to end up with expected IIS behavior, and requiring that knowledge is by-design. Similar dependencies exist for authentication and caching...
- If you want to configure a "wildcard application mapping", you have to chant the magic incantation of a perfect handler configuration. I'll leave the exercise to the reader to come up with the spell. :-)
- If you configure a handler AFTER the catch-all StaticFileHandler, it will NOT apply to any requests. If you just stare at the IIS7 configuration wondering why it is not running - it is there in the configuration section - you will go crazy unless you know how the handler section works.
- If you configure an ISAPI DLL as a globalModule, reference a non-existing managed type as a module, or remove a referenced module from loading... good luck on the spotting the error! ;-)
In short, if you run IIS7 in non-default fashion, it will require either perfect instructions or the user has to really understand IIS7 processing and behavior. Maybe there is a way to lower the requirements of running/using IIS7, but I have not come up with any. What are your thoughts?

I have a new favorite store. In fact, I would buy out the entire store if I could! I am going to post some pictures of my favorite pieces (so far;))
Francesca's Collection's have a mixture of colors and patterns that I am in love with right now! If you can, I would recommend checking them out.
This store may just be the new spot for me to go. However somewhat pricey these items are, I may just save and splurge sometime!
Well, goodnight everyone! I must get my beauty sleep you know! 😉

Some people change vehicles almost like they change underwear. What does this mean? This means that you can benefit from some of the best cars, in great condition, but they are labeled as "used." In truth, a vehicle can be labeled as used just as soon as you drive it off the lot because it immediately depletes in value. So if someone wants a new vehicle every year, think of all the used vehicles waiting to be bought for a price that is almost half what it was originally. You can find a Used Dodge, used Jeep, a used luxury or recreational vehicle for a great price at almost any local dealership.
Statistics show that a Used Dodge or any other used vehicle is probably the better deal any way you look at it. If you buy what is considered a good, used vehicle, not a lemon, then the most you have to worry about is normal wear and tear – the tires, the breaks, and the battery. These specifics are not covered under a new car's warranty so you are not paying any more out of your pocket than you would have to with a brand new car. Buying used does not mean you have to buy something very old and outdated. It could be a car that is no more than a year or 2 old.
New or used, it's new to you if you just bought it. The excitement is still there even if it's not the very latest model. Acquiring any car in good shape that suits your needs and desires for less dollars than what it is brand new is a deal you do not want to pass up.
Take a local mechanic that you trust with you to check out the Used Dodge you have been considering. With honest advice, you should be able to avoid choosing a lemon and come to a firm decision on a new to you vehicle. Cars fit into the old saying too, "one man's trash is another man's treasure." One may be sitting in a used car lot, but it could be your treasure.

21 September – 31 October 2018
After Old Masters
At the beginning of the 19th century, Quatremère de Quincy – considered the first critic of the Louvre as an institution – used a devastating argument: contemplating the fascinating reunion of so many masterpieces in the same museum prevents the creation of new masterpieces. This statement coincides temporarily with the construction of the history of art (as a discipline) and of museums (in a modern sense) that will strive to establish a European cultural canon in reference to the classicism that goes from the Renaissance to the Enlightenment, ciphering the names of the Great Masters and treasuring their works as evidence. Also the label "masterpiece" appears at this time, with the museum, to signal a milestone, an extraordinary (absolute) realization that holds in its bosom the idea of art and the history of art itself. Since then, the Grand Masters have radiated from their time and through their creations an influence and inspiration that encourages to imitate them, hence the academic artistic formation systematized the study and the copy of the forms and techniques of the Masters as a method . The appearance of another label, after will encode this artistic value chain marking the partial approximations or the total imitation of the style of a Master made by another artist, by an apprentice in the workshop or by the copyist in the rooms of the museum. Although in another sense, the interpretation, appointment and apporpriation as creative strategies will follow the same logic until leading to the postmodern gesture and current practices.
(Re)Mastered brings together four proposals that demonstrate the reversibility of art history and how classical forms and techniques are consciously assumed and reinterpreted by contemporary artists who reintroduce the creations of the Masters by updating their language.
PichiAvo (Spain) combines classic statuary with the signs of identity of graffiti (tags, pieces) in tangles of grisailles, glazes and palimpsests of strong color that dominate the large walls where the paintings are painted or they are held.
Andrea Ravo Mattoni (Italy) builds with his murals an "open-air pinacoteca" moving to the urban space and making available works by Caravaggio or David that are enclosed in museums; He uses the sprays with which he also works on canvas.
Florian Eymann (France) plays in his paintings with the relationship between the touch of Rembrandt and the brushstroke of Bacon, between the representation and the evidence of the materiality of the painting, between the quotation to the Master and the abstract mixture of today's painting (oil, spray, collage).
Eric Basstein (Netherlands) generates in his paintings a sort of puzzle where classical and contemporary references (advertising,fashion, comics) are discussed as in a sort of abstract sampling in which we discover layers and fragments of the artistic tradition, the popular and the familiar.
To better recreate the rooms of nineteenth century museums, typical of the Grand Masters, the gallery has been painted royal blue, the most conducive to the exhibition and the transgressions of the Benjaminian aura.

Unesco has inscribed Bagan as a World Heritage site, nearly a quarter of a century after the complex of Buddhist temples was first nominated for listing, The Straits Times reported.
The International Council on Monuments and Sites recommended the Myanmar listing, noting that the country had adopted a new heritage law and had formed plans to reduce the impact of hotels and tourism developments around the temple.
Bagan was first nominated as a World Heritage site in 1995, but the military junta that ruled the country then was accused of ignoring experts' advice on restoration efforts and the nomination was rejected.
Myanmar has renewed efforts to list the site since a transition from military rule began in 2011.

It's been a few days since I've last posted, but here I am!! I'm working nights right now, but thought I would take a moment to post something.
I've been reading for a few days, and have in fact, started another book today. I'm going to focus on writing for right now, as I want to get back in the mind set of focusing on it, like I had been. I've started Chapter Five now, and want to get it moving. I'm on the first scene at the moment, but would like to progress it even further.
Usually I give myself a few days to think about, let the characters talk to me, and show me where they want me to go. It's getting there. Hoping I can get some done tonight, although I'm pretty tired right now, so focusing will be hard!

Paperback, by Serpent's Tail
Page count: 478
Eva never really wanted to be a mother; certainly not of the boy who murdered seven of his fellow high school students, a cafeteria worker and a teacher who tried to befriend him. Now, two years later, it is time for her to come to terms with Kevin's horrific rampage in a series of startlingly direct correspondences with her estranged husband. Uneasy with the sacrifices of motherhood, Eva fears that her dislike for her own son may be responsible for driving him so drastically off the rails.
Winner of the 2005 Orange Prize, We Need To Talk About Kevin is a brilliant, controversial, unsettling book.

US indices are also trading higher but rising more slowly as traders await this morning's economic reports. It's the last full day of trading before the Christmas Break and it could be a busy won with a number of economic reports on the way. Crude oil is in particular focus today with traders looking to DOE inventories for confirmation of last night's big API drawdown with the weekly Baker Hughes rig count also on the way. Overnight, WTI has been consolidating yesterday's big rebound above $35.00 while gasoline has been picking up heading into its own report. Canadian stocks and CAD may be particularly active today not only on the oil related news but also with Canada monthly GDP and retail sales on the way which could give an indication on how well or how poorly Canada's transition to a lower oil / lower loonie environment is proceeding. There is also a flurry of mid-tier US numbers on the way that could keep their pot simmering including personal income, durable goods, new home sales and more. Over the rest of the year, its fairly quiet for news except for Japan who is scheduled to report its main monthly economic numbers over the next several days.

Or would that be: 'the most San Franciscoish?' That photo was taken from inside a cable car… (note the dangling Christmas ornament, top left)… and is of a VW bus… (that is painted in tie dye, and is taking tourists on a 'magical hippy-trippy' sightseeing tour of the iconic 60's counter culture sites [like Haight Ashbury])… that is just starting to drive down Lombard Street… (the most twisty street in the world)… I do apologize for the fact that I don't have any better pictures of Lombard Street, but it took a long time to get on the cable car, and we had stuff to do.
The funny thing is that we ended up on the same 'well-decorated–or Christmas' cable car that I took photos of on the day we went to China Town. I am still working on the assumption that the crews were responsible for the decorations, because most of them had none or very few.
My wife, Mollie, our 17-year-old, and her boyfriend, are clinging to the outside of the cable car, which is fun and exciting to do. I sat inside, to leave room for some other lucky tourist, because I have done all this before.
I gave up the chance to take some great pictures of the city from a less limited but more dangerous viewpoint …
But hey, I am noble like that.
Next time, I promise to take some better pictures of Lombard Street.
I waited to be last off the cable car to take this photo of the controls the driver uses. The cables, which are under the street, are constantly moving, being pulled by massive engines in special buildings. The drivers have big levers. One operates special grips that grab the cable, and that makes the car move. The other is the brake, which moves big metal pads against the outside edge of the cable track. This keeps the car from rolling down the steep hills. You should Google that, it is pretty interesting, and it is some old technology that still works.
And these things go up and down some pretty steep hills.
Oh, and I met a lot of really cool dogs.

Carpal tunnel syndrome is a common condition that is caused by pressure on the median nerve causing tingling, pain, numbness and weakness in your arm. The median nerve goes through the length of your arm going through a passage called the carpal tunnel and it ends in the hand, hence the name, carpal tunnel syndrome. If the condition gets worst, treatment options include wrist splinting, medications and surgery using certain medical equipment.
The symptoms usually start gradually the first ones being tingling in your middle fingers, index fingers or thumb that comes and goes. Discomfort in the palm of your hand and your wrist is also common. You may also experience weakness and a tendency to drop objects.
The condition is caused by repetitive motions such as typing,or working in a construction site where you need to use your palms repeatedly and excessively. Pregnancy as well as other conditions like obesity, diabetes and hypothyroidism could also contribute to the syndrome.
Carpal tunnel syndrome prevention
• Consider changing your keyboard to a more ergonomic one especially if you spend a lot of time typing. A split and V-shaped keyboard is common but instead you can opt for a split vertical keyboard which is more effective in preventing carpal tunnel syndrome because it allows you to type with arms facing each other instead of palms down.
• Using your other hand, other than the dominant one as well as alternating between them.
• Exercising and stretching your hands. There are several hand stretches that you can do.
• Being less tense by becoming more sensitive to the amount of pressure that you put in your wrists, arms and fingers.
• Keeping your wrists neutral by avoiding bending them too far down especially when typing, driving or using many tools.
• Having a clear understanding of all the risk factors associated with carpal tunnel syndrome and also how to reduce them such as repetitive motion during work.
• Try using less force when typing, grasping or gripping tools.

That is one of the standpoints of Dzũng Yoko – Creative Director of Elle Vietnam Magazine – in the talk show with Hoa Sen University students with the topic named "Creative Methods in the Digital Age along with the Development of Social Media and Green and Sustainable Creative Thinking" in the afternoon of May 5th , 2019 at Room 204, Nguyen Van Trang Head Office.
That is one of the standpoints of Dzũng Yoko – Creative Director of Elle Vietnam Magazine – in the talk show with Hoa Sen University students with the topic "Creative Methods in the Digital Age along with the Development of Social Media and Green and Sustainable Creative Thinking" in the afternoon of May 5th , 2019 at Room 204, Nguyen Van Trang Head office.
During the talk show, Mr. Dzũng Yoko shared his experience in reality creation and he also admitted that there were so many ups and downs in designing process that he wanted to quit his job.
Creativity is the true feeling deep in our heart
Up until now, creativity has been known as an abstract concept and it seems that there is no exact meaning. People will have different understanding about this concept depending on their sense and nature.
According to Mr. Dzũng Yoko, a person influential in photography and graphic design fields, during process of artistic activities, "creativity" starts with three important factors:
Creativity comes from inspiration and knowledge;
Creativity comes from feelings and memories;
Creativity comes from digital, viral, talking about and trend to apply technology trend, social networks…
Mr. Dzũng Yoko – creative means feeling by our heart.
In order not to miss any creative inspirations, he receives every small detail in his life and redraws them when he is free. He sets the goal that his completed photobook must be more-than-90-percent similar to the organized layout. As the result, his designs for newspapers' covers or fashion photos are detailed and meticulous with all the passion and emotion.
"The most important point in creative is that we must not lose our inspiration. Try to record every moment whether they are pictures or words… There will be a time when we can apply everything to our life and job", he stated.
He doesn't miss any hot trends of young people, in fact, he takes them as the inspirations for his designs. From Outfit of Today (OOTD) to flat lay photography (organized photos), he understands them at the exact time.
The most important point in The most important point in creative is that we must not lose our inspiration.
Each photo of Mr. Dzũng Yoko receives supports from the audience and transmits the inspiration to the youth. Most recently, he also catches up on invisible cinemagraph trend - by S8 Galaxy and above on Facebook. In such a short time, he established five incredibly impressive compositions. Each of his photographic works was the rhythmically and exquisitely combination of the static and dynamic parts, so that viewers are attracted to the subtle movements on an overall comprehension.
"Don't think too much on finding ideas from distant places, the materials from your daily life are inherently abundant and extremely diversity. You can feel them with your heart to find many interesting ideas for your new compositions.
Aim to the environment and contribute to the community to protect and improve it.
"Green and Sustainable Creative is the current trend of designing but what can we do to protect the environment?" was the question by many students for Mr. Dzũng Yoko during the talk show.
In his opinion, every fashion designer can choose a sustainable formula that suits his or her characteristics, beliefs, people and financial resources. Every small change is important. He always considers about the "sustainability" element in conceptualizing ideas. For example, he is a vegetarian during the meals but in fashion, he usually chooses clothes, which are firm and can be used many times. He doesn't choose clothes which are rapidly wasted, because they will be difficult to decompose if they are eliminated into the environment. He stated, the first step for designers to do is supporting domestic labors maximally and using materials wrapped by recycle raw materials.
Mr. Dzũng Yoko sign in his third Art book LOVE for the audience.
With the main topic "Creative Methods in the Digital Age along with the Development of Social Media and Green and Sustainable Creative Thinking", the talk show has attracted many young people in design, corporate communication, marketing… fields and all of the audience were caught up in his story due to his casual, intimate style. He approaches to his audience with all the enthusiasms of a designer and experienced photographer.
About Mr. Dzũng Yoko
Mr. Dzũng Yoko's real name is Tran Hoang Dung, he studied and graduated from University of Architecture. He is one of the most famous graphic designers in Viet Nam with many awards in designing CD covers. The name "Yoko" comes from a time when he and his brother (architect Trung Tran) constituted a rock music café called Yoko, which is quite popular among music-loving young communities. He has the achievements of about 20 successful CD covers of many famous singers. Among them, the most highlighted CD cover is Ha Tran 9803, which received many compliments from the art world and satisfied himself, while it achieved 100 percent of the ideas and took two years to be completed. After that is Do Bao's Canh Cung, Le Hieu's vol.1, both showed Dzũng Yoko's unique style. However, the album cover My Nhan Ngu of My Le is the one that made Mr. Dzũng Yoko become famous. Mr. Dzũng Yoko has his own rules, he thinks that he is not only an image processor but also a person who comes up with ideas. His designs always require good layout, no confusing and the most important thing is that they have to have high aestheticism. In previous time, he confessed that he is an inspirational worker and because of this, he had lost many customers. However, he now sets his own specific, professional goal and provides products for many singers as well as many different styles of music. He is also popular in architect world when a wooden house designed by him received many attentions from journalists. Currently, he is taking the role of Creative Director of Ellen Vietnam Magazine.

Patrick J. Adams is set to don a different suit in Legends of Tomorrow
Patrick J. Adams a.k.a Mike Ross from USA network "SUITS" is confirmed to appear on DC TV Show Legends of Tomorrow which is about an assembly of an elite team by a Time Master Captain Rip Hunter who is betrayed by the council, he has taken the task of preventing the rise of an immortal tyrant known as Vandal Savage to save his family murdered by Savage in the future and prevent global catastrophe.
According to credible sources, he will be playing a hero boasting "a mysterious past and equally mysterious agenda" will come in on the CW's Legends of Tomorrow first season finale, which will come on air on May 19, 2016. He is being described as "a beloved superhero from the DC canon," the character will provide a solid punch for Season 1 finale and kick off a major storyline for Season 2, where he will recur in a handful of episodes.
The internet is rife with speculation about the possible identity of the DC superhero he will be playing, and who fits the description. Many fans were pointing towards Booster Gold (a time traveler) as a strong possibility, but the evidence is not compelling enough to validate the fan theory. Are you excited to see Mikey on Legends? Will he prove to be a game-changer for the CW Superhero tv drama? Only time will tell…..stay tuned….

Asymmetrical Spinnaker Dimensions
Purchased an RL24 from Steve Knowlton, Derry, NH, USA last summer. We refrubished interior, some hull painting, trailer bearings replaced, etc. We are extremely pleased. We were able to sail it on Lake Champlain for a week and were pleasantly surprised at how well it sailed. We had a couple of days with gusts around 20+ knots and it stood up well. We could easily hold 6.5 knots+ average.
I am interested in getting an asymmetrical spinnaker and would appreciate any assistance in recommmended dimensions. The rig is standard fractional rig with backstay. The mast is a US Kenyon non-tappered. I do not plan to race this and I cruise with my wife, so a regular spinnaker is not what I need. I am considering a DIY kit from Sailrite (sailrite.com).
I have attached a photo taken at Burlington, VT. There would be about 2 ft of ice there right now!!
I have enjoyed this site. Lots of good ideas. I just wish there were more RL24's to meet in the US.
Any help would be appreciated.

The operation was vital to the resistance movement and it had been organised by a 22-year-old Special Operations Executive (SOE) agent on her first mission in occupied territory. On March 17, 1944, Yvonne was parachuted into France where she and De Saint-Geniès established a new network, recruiting and training operatives and marshalling air drops via her radio to London. By the time of their most successful operation in June they had more than 800 French men and women on the ground. The next day, while celebrating at a cheese factory, they were discovered by a German patrol. De Saint-Geniès was shot and Yvonne was arrested. She was interrogated and sent to Ravensbrück but despite torture and illness refused to reveal the names of any operatives. She finally escaped in April 1945 on a Red Cross train to Sweden and the following year was appointed MBE and awarded a Croix de Guerre. In 1948 she married Desmond Bailey of the Colonial Service and moved to Rhodesia. After his death in 1966 she remarried, moving to Portugal with her new husband Anthony Burney.

Jail terms for Tibetans who posted Dalai Lama photos: report
December 8, 2009
Australia Network News
December 7, 2009
A Chinese court has sentenced two Tibetans to jail after the pair posted
pictures of the Dalai Lama on the Internet.
Paris-based media watchdog Reporters without Borders says the two men,
Gyaltsen and Nyima Wangdu, were sentenced to three years each after
being convicted of "communicating information to contacts outside China".
"These convictions are absurd. These young people should not be made to
pay for the tension between the Chinese authorities and the Dalai Lama,"
the group said in a statement.
Photos of the exiled Tibetan leader have been banned in Tibet for years,
with the ban apparently coming under renewed enforcement following
anti-China riots in Lhasa in March 2008.
Reporters Without Borders says the two were detained in, Lhasa, the
Tibetan capital, on October 1.
Three other Internet users were also arrested for similar reasons on
December 1 but have yet to face court.
The Dalai Lama fled Tibet following an aborted uprising in 1959.
He now lives in exile in India.

New Hampshire Boat Rentals: How to Create a Memorable Trip
So you bring your family to beautiful Lake Winnipesaukee for the All-American vacation of a lifetime, but what do you hear? "I'm bored." "There's nothing to do." "I miss my video games." Prevent this from happening to you by making sure that you plan in advance to get boat rentals in Wolfeboro. Even if you don't have any boating experience, renting a small canoe, rowboat, or even a kayak can be fun for the whole family. Power boats are also available with our New Hampshire boat rentals, ranging in motor size from 25 HP Lund Aluminum SS all the way to a 60 HP Boston Whaler Super Sport.
Explore the Lake
The biggest advantage of having boat rentals in Wolfeboro is being able to get out and explore the lake. Lake Winnipesaukee has miles of shoreline and over 200 islands that you can travel to and visit. You could head out on the boat every day and explore a brand new area of the lake that you had not seen before. This helps to overcome the typical kid objections of being bored and there not being anything to do. Instead of letting them pull out those video games and sit in front of the TV the way they do at home, you can keep them stimulated and occupied with our New Hampshire boat rentals.
Another great reason to rent a boat is having the ability to go fishing. If you didn't bring anything with you, you can get local tackle rentals or even purchase fishing tackle in New Hampshire. The NH Hole in the Wall has everything you need from local fishing licenses to live bait, lures, and flies to custom rods and reels. In addition to our boat rentals in Wolfeboro, we also have all of the safety gear, fishing gear, and accessories required to have a great day out on the water. Ask about our underwater video fish finding electronics and other tools that you can use to increase your advantage and catch some fish.
There are lots of great spots to go fishing out on Lake Winnipesaukee aside from the shoreline beaches. Make sure to get a map of the local area before you head out on your New Hampshire boat rentals so you will know where to go. With 72 acres of water to explore, it can be easy to get lost. Remember to bring lots of sunscreen, bottled water, extra clothing, and safety gear. Before you use any boat for the first time, take some time out to go over all of the safety rules with your passengers. Even a small boat requires care to ensure a safe and successful trip. Go ahead and ask out staff at the NH Hole in the Wall about the best places to go swimming. It really helps to ask the locals.
Have you ever towed water sports toys out on the water? It's a lot of fun and is a very popular activity on Lake Winnipesaukee. The children absolutely love it, and it's a blast for "kids" of all ages. You can either bring your own or rent water toys where you get boat rentals in Wolfeboro. Make sure to also provide every passenger with all of the proper safety precautions, including life vests and other personal flotation devices. Inner tubes, water skis, kneeboards, and more in a variety of sizes, types, and colors. Ask about using water sports gear with our motor boat rentals and what you need to operate a powerboat with more than 25 HP on New Hampshire waters.
Another excellent use for our New Hampshire boat rentals is to use them to get to hard-to-reach camping spots around the lake. Make sure to find out what areas are okay for camping, and which areas are prohibited or private. Ask about boat-only accessible sites and other camping areas that have public docks available. Always check the local regulations about camping, campfires, and other safety-related restrictions before heading out for an adventure. Each state and region has different laws to protect the natural lands and the people who come to boat, fish, and camp here.
Visit the NH Hole in the Wall
If you are interested in local tackle rentals, boat rentals in Wolfeboro or fishing tackle in New Hampshire, make sure to stop by our location on Main Street. We carry a wide range of fishing supplies, live bait, and New Hampshire boat rentals. Give us a call before you visit to make reservations, especially during the busy vacation season, at 1-603-569-HOLE (4653).

NPP cries foul over administrator's rule in GHADC
SHILLONG: With the Cabinet recommending administrator's rule in GHADC, the fourth time since 2014, NPP leader Conrad Sangma cried foul over the stand of the government and made it clear that the Garo Customary Law Bill was not aimed at the chief minister.
Last week, the NPP-led Executive Committee of GHADC collapsed soon after the controversial Garo Customary Bill was passed.
The Bill restricts the definition of Garo as born of purely Garo parents.
Critics had cited that the Bill was intended to target the chief minister whose ST status case is pending in the Supreme Court.
Following the collapse of the NPP-led EC, the Congress projected the chairman of GHADC, Boston Marak, from NPP as the next leader.
Though the Congress-led MUA-II Government first recommended the Governor to fix the election of the CEM on Monday, in a late realisation, the cabinet went in favour of the administrator's rule.
Usually, the tenure of administrator's rule is six months.
GHADC's tenure was earlier extended by six months from February 18, 2014, to pave way for the finalisation of agreed text for settlement with ANVC-ANVC-B groups.
Yet again on August 17, 2014, the tenure was extended for another six months citing delay on the part of the Centre to give nod to the increase of seats in the Council as per the agreement with ANVC and ANVC-B
The cabinet again extended the council tenure for another six months from February 17, 2015.
Commenting on the fresh administrator's rule, Conrad said, "It shows that there is some confusion on the part of the government. This kind of thing was done in the past too by the government and the Congress-led Government is trying to interfere in the affairs of GHADC by way of imposition of administrator's rule."
To a question on the Customary Bill, the Tura MP said he was not aware of the development that led to the passing of the Bill.
"However, one thing is clear, codification of the customary practices is the need of the hour and everyone agrees to this," he said.
The NPP leader said he did not see the copy of the Bill and reiterated that he was not aware of the decision of GHADC though the EC is led by NPP.
"The EC got the power to codify the customary practices in its true spirit, but as far as the customary law is concerned, it required extensive discussion so that it becomes stronger. A bit more consultation should have been there before passing the Bill," he said and added that there are many options, including formation of the House Committee and prior discussion within the EC.
To a question whether the Bill was intended for the chief minister, Conrad said, "No, I do not think so. There is no reason to blame. The aim was over all interest of Garo people, but some fine-tuning of the Bill was required."
Fourth administrator's rule in three years in GHADC
First extension for six months: Feb 18, 2014
Second extension: Aug 17, 2014
Third extension: Feb 17, 2015
Election to GHADC: Oct 12, 2015
Fourth recommendation for extension: Mar 31, 2017

Mortgage lending increased by 15% in June, according to data from the Council of Mortgage Lenders (CML).
Gross lending, which includes lending to house buyers and those re-mortgaging, rose to £13.1 billion last month, up 15% on May's figure. This is the biggest monthly figure so far this year.
In the second quarter of 2010 gross lending was an estimated £35 billion, up 17% from the first quarter. The annual rise is 7%.
The figures this morning prompted suggestions of improved economic growth. However, experts warn this rise is purely seasonal and cannot be sustained.
Upcoming public sector cuts, the increase in VAT to 20%, other tax rises and a potential freeze on wage increases, are all predicted to have a negative impact on the housing market.
Paul Samter, economist at CML, says: "There are signs of house prices stabilising and more properties coming on to the market following the abolition of home information packs. This may improve liquidity in the market, but transaction levels are subdued and likely to remain so while access to credit remains constrained."
Jonathan Samuels, CEO of property finance specialists Drawbridge Finance, is also wary about the news.
"Mortgage lending may be up slightly, primarily due to seasonal factors, but in the short term both the mortgage and property markets remain delicately poised. People who can secure mortgage finance will be calling all the shots," he says.
When details of public sector cuts are announced later in the year there should be a clearer idea of exactly how the housing market will be affected.
Adam Challis, head of research at Hamptons International, predicts a house price adjustment through the second half of the year, which will more than reverse the gains since January.
"We expect prices to end up 1% to 2% lower over the course of the year, before returning to moderate growth of 3% to 4% in 2011," says Challis.

Thierry Henry: "The most important thing is to move forward"
After ten days of the international break, Thierry Henry came to meet the journalists before heading to Caen Saturday at 20 hours.
We had fewer players in recent days because of the international break but we did what we had to do with the players present. This match in Caen will not be easy, it is a team that is also going through a difficult moment with players out, we will try to get the three points.
We are in a delicate situation, everyone is aware. It is not because they are wounded that we must find excuses. I assume all responsibilities. We try to move forward, it is the most important thing.
In Caen we can count on the return from suspension of Yuri Tielemans. Sylla, Geubbels and Golovin have resumed training. We will update the group on Friday.
