Walk: Above Rob Roy's Grave
|[View over Loch Voil from Creag an Tuirc]
If you stretch your imagination a little you can almost still hear the rallying cry of Clan MacLaren from the top of Creag an Tuirc (Boar's Crag). This characterful, rocky knoll was the clan's gathering point during troubled times and is a wonderful viewpoint overlooking Loch Voil and the local hills. Meanwhile, the walk starts at the grave of Scottish folk hero and outlaw Rob Roy MacGregor, buried next to the ruins of Balquhidder Old Church. Based on our experience, red squirrels seem to be even more widespread here than elsewhere in the Trossachs - consider yourself unlucky if you don't see one.

"The truth is, a kernel of wheat must be planted in the soil. Unless it dies it will be alone-a single seed. But its death will produce many new kernels." John 12:24.........."My true disciples produce much fruit. This brings great glory to My Father." John 15:8
A good friend shared an interesting and enlightening insight today. We were talking of how so many "works" for Him begin with great success, blossoming and producing a beauty wonderful to behold. Then, in so many cases, the work seems to wither, and seemingly die. Here is where his insight really spoke, for it is when such happens that we think the Father has somehow abandoned or forgotten us. We wonder where He went, and what happened. This can be true not only in works of ministry and service, but in marriages, relationships, in endeavors of every kind. What my friend speaks of is something our eyes and minds of flesh can so easily miss, and so, we give up. We never see the full picture, and especially the end picture that the Lord has in mind.
He talked of how so many fruit trees first produce lovely blossoms that everyone loves to behold. They are a joy to look at, and they draw the attention and notice of all who pass by. What we miss is that it's after the blossoms wither that the fruit comes. The true and real fruit is not to be found in the blossoms, beautiful though they may be. It is found in what comes after they have seemingly died. It is then that real life and fruitfulness comes forth.
Think on that. Allow Him to speak into our spirits on this. How many endeavors, relationships, marriages and ministries are given up on, walked away from, simply because the flower upon them has faded? The initial excitement has passed. The bloom is literally off the flower. We think all is lost, that failure is our lot. We can be so deceived in this. I think most often that we are. We keep remembering the lost flower, and miss the "now" fruit. It is when the flower has faded that the true test of our trust and belief in Him will come. It's then we'll see how deep the roots of our trust go. How deep the roots of commitment to the work, the calling, or the person really is. In too many cases, the answer will be, "not very." We're captivated by pretty flowers, but our hearts wander and our vision fades when those flowers disappear. It's then that the hard work of trusting, obeying, believing, and waiting upon Him to bring forth the harvest enters in. The flowers are gone, but we continue to water the ground, till the soil, pull out the weeds that seek to choke out life. All the while we continue to believe the words that He first spoke into our hearts when He called us. And if we'll listen, He continues to speak now. We hold onto the vision He first gave us when we entered into it. This is maturity. We rejoiced in the flowers, but we have learned that the real food and nourishment of the Kingdom is found in the fruit that follows. That fruit has a season, and He will be faithful to bring it forth.
My friend made one other point and it bears dwelling upon. It may well be that we need to allow Him to define for us just what true fruit is. Our flesh always thinks it's in what can be measured and counted. I believe it is found in that which brings life. His life. It's the fruit of the Kingdom, and it will show up in ways far beyond the countable and measurable. It will not fade, but will be eternal. But I think to truly lay hold of it, to be vessels of it, we will, like the kernel, have to die. And in that death and the fruit that bursts forth from it, will be great glory for Him.

text: A woman found dead on a footpath in a Dorset coastal town is the first case for a new DCI - Sophie Allen. I love the setting (Swanage) plus the other familiar places in Dorset, so I would read other stories for that reason alone. I liked the team and the way they worked together to solve the crime but although the villain did horrible things to the victims didn't really come across as frightening or menacing which is a pity and when arrested it was an anticlimax which left me thinking "is that it?" as the character did or said very little afterwards. A promising start and I shall look forward to meeting DCI Allen again!

Citing sources, creating bibliographies and organizing research can sometimes feel like the most difficult part of a research project, big or small. There are many tools available that can help with this process. There are three basic categories of citation tools: style guides, citation generators and citation management software.
Our College uses the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (6th edition) style guide, commonly called The APA Manual. All students are expected to purchase a copy of The APA Manual to be used throughout your degree. Even if you find other quick guides to APA style, the Manual is considered the ultimate authority on all APA formatting questions. The Library has created an APA Guide which gives examples of APA formatting for various types of resources -- see the APA Guide tab to access that information.
Citation generators are websites or mobile apps that format citations and reference lists based on the citation details you input. Citation generators are useful for simple projects with just a few citations. After selecting the type of source to be cited (book, journal article, website, etc.), you manually enter the citation details, generate the APA formatted citation and copy and paste it into your word processor. Most citation generators are simple and intuitive to use, but you won't be able to save your citations for later use. We have compiled a comparison list of just a few of the citation generators available.
Citation Management Software (also called citation managers) allows you to create and organize a personal library of references and articles and use a plug-in within your word processor to insert in-text citations and create reference lists. Citation managers are an important tool for graduate education when you are involved in extended research projects for which you will want to save and organize citations and PDFs and you plan on adding to, revising and returning to your database of citations. We have compiled a comparison list of the citation managers supported by the College Library.
IMPORTANT NOTE: No citation generators or citation managers format perfect APA citations!!! If you decide to use a citation tool you are still responsible for understanding the basics of APA formatting so that you can review and correct the citations that have been generated by the tools. Citation tools can save you time, but they don't guarantee a perfect result.
This guide was modeled after excellent guides created by the University Libraries, University at Albany, SUNY (http://libguides.library.albany.edu/content.php?pid=607199&sid=5013368) and Purdue University Libraries (http://guides.lib.purdue.edu/citation/). Our thanks for their creativity in presenting this information.

Steph's Pick | a Milk & Cookies Birthday Party
Jul 22, 2011
Did you hear that our little Nora turned TWO last week?!! So crazy to think that it was 2 years ago that we welcomed Nora Marie into the world. Which of course called for a party! ;)
As you know...parties are my thing. I honestly love planning any kind of party. So naturally I couldn't help planning a super fun party for friends and family to celebrate Nora's 2nd Birthday.
Here's a quick recap of the party:
The Theme :: Milk & Cookies!
Food :: Milk & Cookies of course. We had 7 different kinds of cookies. Some homemade and others were store bought. We also had 3 different kinds of milk - Skim, 2% and Chocolate Milk for the kiddo's (and kids at heart).
Guest List :: Lots of little friends (and their parents).
Activities :: Eating yummy sweets and playing in the baby pool and sprinklers in the backyard - two of Nora's most favorite activities.
Thanks Kevin, Joy, Reagan and Elliot for hosting Nora's Party for us! We're so thankful for such great friends who are willing to open their home for such an occasion.
And of course a HUGE thank you to everyone who attended!

I am currently embarking on a journey that isn't exactly monumental for most people. However I'm quite proud of it. I am going to read one book a week for 52 weeks :). So we'll start this as week 1, even though I finished a book last week I finished it by the skin of my teeth.
Month 1:
Week 1: Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban – J.K. Rowling (448 Pages / 64 Pages Nightly)
Week 2: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire – J.K. Rowling (752 Pages / 107 Pages Nightly)
Week 3: Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix – J.K. Rowling (870 Pages / 125 Pages Nightly)
Week 4: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince – J.K. Rowling (652 Pages / 93 Pages Nightly)
Month 2:
Week 5: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – J.K. Rowling (784 Pages / 112 Pages Nightly)
Week 6: Under the Dome: A Novel – Stephen King (1074 Pages / 153 Pages Nightly)
Week 7: Foundation and Empire – Isaac Asimov (272 Pages / 38 Pages Nightly)
Week 8: Second Foundation – Isaac Asimov (272 Pages / 38 Pages Nightly)
So that's what I've got lined up for the next 8 weeks. We'll see how it pans out! I'm hoping that some of the larger books don't kill me desire to move on but I think that I can get a pretty good idea of how quickly I read after the first book.
I am going to chart my nightly reading and make an awesome excel sheet out of it. So that is something to look forward to.
After each book I'll likely talk about it a bit but that's not part of the project. This is just to see what I can accomplish and how much literature I can dive into. The goal overall is to expand my horizons, see how others write, and help prepare myself better for my own writing.

This month, all across Europe, one of the most respected and esteemed leaders of your country has been making his presence felt on the political stage. A man of insight, wisdom, compassion and traditional values, he is one of those products of the American way of life that makes us look wistfully across the Atlantic.
This profound leader is none other than Homer J. Simpson. There are many things we can learn from this celebrated son of Springfield, but the one that is most salient is the way he has marketed his first movie.
|Ivan Pollard is a partner at Naked Communications, a communications-strategy shop with offices in six countries.
Millions of dollars in investment and a narrow window for a successful launch -- now, that is pressure, and yet studios always seem to find innovative ways to market.
In the U.K., we saw the standard movie-marketing fare -- big billboards, trailers, bus ads, etc. But it was the "special stuff" that made you believe we could learn a thing or two. For example:
- The film partnered with Nestl? to produce a "yellow" Kit-Kat chocolate bar with the whole Willy Wonka thing going on. It's been done before, but the way Homer was used was a delight.
- In the "Simpsons" avatar creator, the film had a hugely successful online application plugged in to social networking. More than 50,000 people have registered and played in the U.K.
- The film generated huge PR by pitting one crude, old-fashioned man against another, chalking an enormous Homer next to the ancient hill engraving at Cerne Abbas in Dorset, England.
- A kids' TV commercial exhorts every British youngster not to be the only one going back to school who has not yet seen the movie.
Visit Wikipedia, and you will find this line in Homer's entry: "Although he is gluttonous, lazy and often simple-minded, he has displayed flashes of brilliance and an integrity reflecting his own values." The same could be said of the way Fox marketed the movie across Europe -- apart from the first bit of the sentence. D'oh!

Dunkin Donuts Have Upgraded Their Look for 2018!
Dunkin' Donuts has opened up a new store in Massachusetts. Inside this 2,200 square foot store you will be welcomed with a more contemporary design alongside some new-age technology!
The renovated establishment will have a drive-thru made only for mobile orders for DD Perks® members, making Dunkin' the first brand to ever offer this form of convenience.
The coffee chain is also branching out and are now offering customers cold drinks. With their new state-of-the-art tap system, they can make eight different cold beverages, which of course includes DD's nitro infused cold brew coffee.
Dave Hoffmann, President of Dunkin' Donuts U.S. and Canada in a written statement said, "our new store is undoubtedly one of the most pivotal moments for Dunkin Donuts. We are now evolving into an on-the-go, beverage-led brand. We wanted to create a positive, fun and engaging atmosphere for all of our customers, but we still wanted the place to feel familiar. We also wanted to emphasise and enhance the store's convenience and digital innovation and that is what allows us to stand out from the crowd."
He finished by saying, "we are proud to start 2018 with such an exciting milestone for our brand. We can't wait to see more of these Dunkin Donut stores for all our guests in every single community."
The new DD design will also have a grab & go section, which will include bottled drinks and healthy options like fresh bananas, mini oranges and grapes, as well as fruit snacks like Gogo Squeez® applesauce, Yoplait® yogurt parfaits featuring Nature Valley™ granola, and other packaged snacks such as beef jerky, nut butter packs and more.
Employees will also have a revamped look. They will be wearing new uniformed created by the Life is Good Brand. New variations of the new design for DD will be tested in 30 stores in 2018, then they will reveal the official new design after the test run has been completed. Some stores, including the Quincy store, will be trying to drop off the word "Donuts" from the brand's name.

The Federal Government will invest $10 million in an eHealth initiative which will enable people to provide information on the health care they wish to receive at the end of their life.
The Advance Care Directives will be stored on the controversial Personally Controlled Electronic Health Record (PCEHR) system.
The Federal Government will also provide a further $800,000 over two years for the Respecting Patient Choices care planning project.
Users' end of life plans will be able to be viewed by nominated doctors, hospitals, family members or carers.
"[If] an elderly man from the Gold Coast is admitted to a hospital while visiting his family in Melbourne, his treating doctors and nurses would have access to information about his end of life care wishes," Tanya Plibersek, Minister for Health, said in a statement.
"That could include information about any treatments he does or does not want under particular circumstances."
Plibersek said around 110,000 people a year need end of life care.
Bill Silvester, president of the International Society of Advance Care Planning and End of Life Care, who will lead the Respecting Patient Choices project, said putting care directives online puts the patient at the "centre" of their health care.
"It ensures that the patient stays front and centre and maintains control of what will be happening to them when they can no longer speak for themselves," Silvester said.
The opt-in PCEHR system has been plagued with problems and criticism.
The system was launched in July last year and allows patient records to be accessed online and shared between healthcare organisations.
Shortly after the system was launched, Queensland Senator Sue Boyce said the system was " faulty" and a waste of money due to problems with the hotline.
The system has also been marred by privacy concerns, with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) announcing in July last year that it would regulate against privacy breaches.
The system sits within the the Personally Controlled Electronic Health Records Act 2012 and the Personally Controlled Electronic Health Records Regulation 2012 legislation.
The OAIC will investigate e-health complaints and also conduct own motion investigations. For consumers who make complaints to the OAIC, the privacy commissioner is able to seek civil penalties and accept enforceable undertakings from healthcare providers.
Mandatory data breach notification will also be introduced for the PCEHR Act for systems operators, repository operations and portal operators.

* Republicans should forget failed policies
* Withholding education as punishment is wrong
* Arcuri should listen to all of his constituents
Republicans should forget failed policies
Barack Obama won the election 53 percent to 46 percent with a popular vote lead of 8.5 million votes and a 192 Electoral College vote lead.
Still, Republicans are saying he must govern right of center and some economists say he should postpone some of his campaign pledges. Others have suggested he should back away from his plan to responsibly withdraw our troops from Iraq over 16 months.
George W. Bush lost the popular vote in 2000 and had a dubious win in Florida giving him the Electoral College victory, thanks to the Supreme Court with their majority of Republican nominees.
Bush pursued his campaign pledges with reckless abandon. Even with a post 9-11 war time economy, he refused to roll back his tax cuts for the wealthy. In 2004, his margin of victory was 51 percent to 48 percent and a handful of electoral votes. He claimed a mandate and said he would spend his political capital.
What is wrong with this picture? Republicans did not win the election, but still expect those who won to implement the failed policies that lost them the election. Those of us who supported Obama need to contact our congressional representatives and president-elect Obama and tell them to stay true to his campaign pledges regarding the economy, taxes, health, energy, defense and education in as bipartisan a manner as possible.
His most important pledge was to bring us together, but not by giving in to partisan pressure.
Withholding education as punishment is wrong
Education is an opportunity for a child to increase their chances for success. It is a right/privilege and should never be denied without just cause.
School administrators assign students to in-school suspension (ISS) as a punishment for minor infractions. This is a denial of learning as a way of addressing improper behavior.
If a student is not a problem in class, a threat to himself, others or the learning process — he/she should never be denied class attendance.
When a student is caught defacing the bathroom walls, placing him in ISS is not a just procedure. The misbehavior had little to do with the learning process. A better approach would ne to teach the student why the behavior is improper and assign him to help clean the walls after school. This assures the student is taught proper behavior (character development – a mandate), and reinforced with an appropriate punishment.
Out-of-school suspension (OSS) is another misused tool of school management. If a student consumes alcohol at a school function, the common OSS method of punishment is ineffective, illegal and educationally unsound.
The student should be counseled. Help the student learn the negative effects of alcohol abuse by attending a program at an appropriate facility. This presents the opportunity for a two-fold function of learning and behavior adjustment — all without denying a student class attendance.
Are educators using OSS and ISS as a means of school control? If so, education is denigrated to less than professional status.
Arcuri should listen to all of his constituents
U.S. Rep. Michael Arcuri, D-Utica, wonders why this election was so close and wanted to know why so many people voted for Richard Hanna?
Well, I know one reason. Arcuri's office does not respond to his constituents. I emailed his office to set up an appointment so I can explain my organization, Feed Our Veterans. I have not heard anything yet.
I know he's no Sherwood Boehlert, but he should take after him and respond to all requests. If he can't meet with me, his staff should respond. I also e-mailed President Bill Clinton's office in New York City and his staff called that day. Whether it's for a meeting, compliment, complaint or help, Congressman Arcuri's office should call.

DDoS Attacks Intensify
Wednesday, June 8, 2016 @ 12:06 PM gHale
Distributed denial of service attacks (DDoS) are continuing their growth mode with 19 over 100 Gbps during the first three months of the year, which is almost four times more than in the previous quarter, researchers said.
These huge attacks, which few companies can withstand on their own, ended up launched using booter or stresser botnets that are common and cheap to rent. This means that more criminals can now afford to launch these attacks.
10% of NFS Servers Misconfigured
Password Manager Vulnerability
TFTP Protocol Allows DDoS Attacks
Ransomware Adds DDoS Capabilities
"In the past, very few attacks generated with booter/stresser tools exceeded the 100 Gbps mark," said researchers from security provider Akamai in its State of the Internet security report for the first quarter of 2016.
By comparison, there were five DDoS attacks over 100 Gbps recorded during the fourth quarter of 2015 and eight in the third quarter.
Bandwidth is not the only aspect of DDoS attacks that can cause problems for defenders. Even lower-bandwidth attacks can be dangerous if they have a high packet rate.
A large number of packets per second poses a threat to routers because they dedicate RAM to process every single packet, regardless of its size. If a router serves multiple clients in addition to the target and exhausts its resources, that can cause collateral damage.
So, along those lines, Akamai found six DDoS attacks that exceeded 30 million packets per second (Mpps), and two attacks that peaked at over 50 Mpps.
DDoS reflection and amplification techniques continue to see action. These involve abusing misconfigured servers on the Internet that respond to spoofed requests over various UDP-based protocols.
Around one-in-four of all DDoS attacks seen during the first three months of 2016 contained UDP (User Datagram Protocol) fragments. This fragmentation can indicate the use of DDoS amplification techniques, which results in large payloads.
The four next most common DDoS attack vectors were all protocols abused for DDoS reflection: DNS (18 percent), NTP (12 percent), CHARGEN (11 percent) and SSDP (7 percent).

This month's issue of Joe Gillespie's Web Page Design for Designers includes a helpful article about putting together a design portfolio. Get some fresh ideas or learn how to show your skills to potential clients or employers either online, offline, or via CD-ROM with Joe's new article, Get That Job! He explains the pitfalls, the to-dos, what clients and employers are looking for, and provides a good checklist.
After you've read Joe's article, I also suggest checking out other designers' sites and portfolios. Check them out as if you're a potential client and see if their sites and portfolios make you want to hire them. If so, why? If not, why not? Think about the details, as it's often the details that make a difference, whether or not you're initially aware of them.
Not sure where to find other designers' portfolios? Ask your friends and colleagues. I also commonly find them from weblog links and discussion list signature tags.
This month Joe also wrote a mini-review on WaSP's Phase 2 launch, some helpful tips for making clean and crisp thumbnail images, and new resources for creativity and inspiration.$root = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'];include $root . '/phpinc1/ad/google-txt-blugrnwhite-336x280.php';?>

•In recent years, the role of health tourism has become more significant worldwide due to growing health awareness in western societies. The estimated number of North American and Western European citizens trying to find solutions for their health problems abroad at a low price grows by 30-35 percent every year. Consequently, medical tourism can be considered as one of the fastest developing and most innovative business sectors in our time.
•Health tourism is a vital part of the Hungarian tourism industry. Hungary has long been famous for its unique thermal baths and spas. In addition to its wonderful thermal waters, Hungary offers excellent plastic surgery, ophthalmological and dental services as well. Hungary has become a prime health tourism destination and the centre of dental services and treatments in Europe. The number of visitors coming to Hungary in order to have dental treatments grows by 10 percent every year. A recent EU survey, made in nine countries, revealed that dental services are the most expensive in England, while the cost of treatments in Hungary is by far the cheapest in the European Union. High-level services at a reasonable price characterize the Hungarian medical tourism scene. What is more, the health tourism sector has been given a special attention lately, and it has been developed nationwide to provide excellent services to visitors and tourists.
•The Opera Garden Hotel & Apartments is the ideal residence for visitors coming to Hungary for medical treatments: you can feel at home in our comfortable apartments enjoying the ultimate home comfort. If your treatment requires bedrest for several days, you can make sure that the hotel will take care of you and serve you without having to leave your room: breakfast, lunch and dinner will be served in your apartment. The hotel also helps you organise the transportation between the clinic or surgery and your room. Our attentive and professional services will meet all your needs.

Recent Testimonials
What Our Clients Had To Say
"When I was considering purchasing our first Range Rover, like many others I had my reservations about the brand based on the reviews and complaints of never ending nagging issues, electrical gremlins etc. While inquiring about used one, as a selling point the owner claimed that all of the service was done by Westminster. That was the first I heard of this company.
Before ultimately settling on a vehicle I decided to call and make an appointment for Westminster to check it out. Avo did not hesitate to accommodate my request and answered every question I had. His thorough inspection of the vehicle and sharing some of his unparalleled knowledge of the brand gave me the confidence to go ahead with it. That was 3 years ago, and my experience with the Supercharged Range Rover as well as with Westminster has far exceeded my expectations.
Avo is a true professional who has mastered what it means to provide phenomenal customer service. Many companies claim to deliver this but none do it like Avo and Westminster. I am very particular my vehicles and Avo always goes above and beyond to make sure I am happy. He is an incredibly trustworthy and genuine person to the point where now when I am in the market for a new vehicle, one of the requirements is that Avo will be able to service it because at this point I would go nowhere else.
If you are considering having your vehicle serviced anywhere else, do yourself a favour and call Avo, you definitely won't be disappointed and will most likely find yourself writing one of these reviews. "
Michael B.
"Incredible service and value always. Avo, you run a 1st class service!"
Paul Fenwick
"People always talk about some of the most important things you need in life is are certain people you can reply on and trust…a person who services your vehicle should be one of them. Since first coming to Avo and the Westminster group several years ago, I could no imagine even taking my Range Rover Sport anywhere else. Yes, they can fix your car well, but it is the attitude of always looking out for the customer's best interest is evident.
To say you can "trust" your mechanic is something people rarely can say. I know this is true when dealing with these guys.
I would even take my non-Range Rover vehicle to them…they are that good."
Dennis Garces
"These guys are simply the best. Responsible, very very professional and client oriented. 1000% recommended"
Fabián Torena
"After experiencing months of frustration about what could be wrong with my Rover, knowing there was something not right but being told time and time again the problem was fixed, I finally found relief when Avo and his team at Westminster looked at my truck. They took the time to find the problem, and always kept me in the loop. They provided customer service I have never seen before and helped me solve my problem so I could love my Truck again! Thank you so much Avo!"
Sean Campbell
Avo is an example of how all business owners running a service based company in this industry should be.
Well I just had another amazing customer service experience at Westminster Motor Corp. This is the only place Land Rover owners should consider bringing their vehicles. Top notch service everytime!!!!

A bra, an unopened can of lager, false teeth and even an animal skull have all caused blockages in the North East's sewer and drains networks.
Northumbrian Water has issued a list of five of the strangest things found in the region's drains as it reminds residents that only toilet paper, pee and poo should be flushed down the loo.
The company's engineers have found some weird and wonderful things in the drains and sewers of the North East, but here is a rundown of the top five strangest:
1. A full-size shower curtain that someone, somehow, managed to flush. It caused a lot of damage to the network in Jesmond.
2. One fully-operational set of false teeth. Found in a drainage pipe in Stanley. Funnily enough, the owner never got back in touch to reclaim them.
3. A full-size animal skull found blocking the networks in South Tyneside. Creepy.
4. A full can of Foster's lager found, unopened, in South Tyneside, having been flushed down the toilet. What a waste.
5. A ladies' bra found blocking one of the sewers in Teesside. It caused so much damage that the sewer actually collapsed.
The North East isn't the only place in the country where this is an issue, with items including a dismantled greenhouse, a space hopper and even a hand grenade being found in the bowels of sewers in other areas.
But although bizarre, none of these items come close to matching the pain in the drain caused by the thousands of wet wipes flushed down the loo or the greasy fats and oils poured down the sink.
Northumbrian Water engineers expect to clear around 17,500 blockages this year and more than half of these will have been preventable and caused by items wrongly flushed or put down the drains.
The consequences of blockages can be very unpleasant and nobody wants to wake up to the contents of their sewer in their home or garden.
The message from the water board is: 'Help us by ensuring that only toilet paper, pee and poo go down the loo. Put other items in the bin. It can save you money, protect your plumbing and drainage and help the environment.'

The park is full of jibs, rails and stalls, like this lift tower stall looking out over the clouds
Here's another look
The Down Bar is always a good time.
This guy seems to be working on his triple sow cow or something
The C-rails are doing pretty good as well. The left C goes up!
And the Right C goes down, while Justin Stack gets down on it!
This in no urban legend, this is the 32ft urban street ledge and its for real.
The up to down combo box likes soaking up the rays while people switch up and combo out all day long.
The Step-Down box serves up mores combo's than Burger King!
If you feel like sliding the battleship box then go ahead, otherwise get totally gangsta with it and air over that !#@$ to the tranny on the other side.
Everyone can agree that choices are good so take your pick. Flatdown Rail on the left...or 32ft Monster box on the right.
Want to get some handplants going or want to stall out, this 20ft culvert is jacked up on an 8ft spine and is attackable from all angles. Did I mention that its ribbed for your pleasure.
Heres another angle
The 20ft flatbar is always so silky and smooth most kids can't resist the way it looks and feels
And again
The tall flat down rail follows the 20 bar and is also hard to pass up.
Don't like tall flat downs, then try out the down flat down box, its awesome
It's not all jibs and junk in the park, I waited along time for somebody on skis, with poles to do something with some style. No luck. So instead I had to pay Dusty O of the park crew to pluck the #!&@% out of this BS180 over the upper 35ft step down
This baby opens on Monday morning and features a 45ft jump on the right and a 35ft sidecar on the left. And for the safety of everyone, please scope the jumps before hitting them.
As well we are working on the 13FT halfpipe and it should be ready sometime this week.
Also just a quick reminder that a Nintendo Wii and some really good cash and prizes are up for grabs at the 2nd Village Rail Jam happening on Saturday night. (Jan 24) After party in the SS Saloon. Don't forget to bring a helmet. See you there. Hope everyone is enjoying the park because its only going to get bigger and better!
Far Out, Solid and Right On!

The Supreme Court 2010 Term - Foreword: Neutral Principles, Motivated Cognition, and Some Problems for Constitutional Law
79 Pages Posted: 1 Sep 2011 Last revised: 16 Apr 2013
Date Written: August 15, 2011
Why is the 'neutrality' of Supreme Court decisionmaking a matter of persistent political disagreement? What should be done to mitigate such conflict? Once the predominant focus of constitutional law scholarship, efforts to answer these questions are now widely viewed as evincing misunderstandings of what can be coherently demanded of theory and realistically expected of judges. This paper attributes the Court's 'neutrality crisis' to a very different form of misunderstanding. The study of motivated reasoning (in particular cultural cognition) shows that individuals are predisposed to fit their perceptions of policy-relevant facts to their group commitments. In the course of public deliberations, these facts become suffused with antagonistic meanings that transform utilitarian policymaking into occasions for symbolic status competition. These same dynamics, the paper argues, make constitutional decisionmaking the focus of status competition among groups whose members are unconsciously motivated to fit perceptions of the Court's decisions to their values. Theories of constitutional neutrality do not address the distinctive cognitive groundings of this form of illiberal conflict; indeed, they make it worse by promoting idioms of justification, in Court opinions and public discourse generally, that reinforce the predisposition of diverse groups to attribute culturally partisan aims to those who disagree with them. The divisive effects of motivated reasoning on policy deliberations can be offset by science communication techniques that avoid selectively threatening any group's cultural worldview. Similarly, public confidence in the Supreme Court's neutrality can be restored by the Court's communication of meanings that uniformly affirm the values of culturally diverse citizens.

Torco products used: Engine: TR-1R 10w40 • Trans: RGO 85w140
This past Sunday, we debuted the new Santos Turbo Corolla at the Import Drag Racing Circuit in Fontana California at Auto Club Speedway. We managed to make two test runs during the day. On the first run, the car shook the tires hard off the line. After making adjustments to the tire pressure, the car still shook the tires. Our day was cut short by the arrival of unexpected rain. We expect to be out testing soon in the coming weeks

As we approach the heart of summer, I am reminded of something someone once send to me in the first few months of being in this lovely city of Edinburgh: 'It doesn't rain in Edinburgh, but when it does it's really bad'. I think I'd agree with that, especially compared to Glasgow. Yes the Hare comes in and it's sometimes misty or grey but it's not that often that it rains. It looks like Disney disagrees as they have their own Edinburgh full length mac for the inevitable summer down pours.
UPDATED: It seems Disney are correct. Maybe Disney actually control the weather and are just trying to shift excess stock this year?

|"Mosbius Designs"
| First aired:
April 13, 2009
| Director:
Pamela Fryman
| Writer:
Kourtney Kang
|Barney's Blog
Ted tries to start his own architecture firm but Robin keeps sleeping with his new assistant—much to Barney's dismay. Marshall tries to ensure job security and Barney turns to him for advice after offending Lily.
The show opens in MacLaren's, and the boys are laughing over a joke about the difference between peanut butter and jam. Lily enters, and Barney starts to tell the joke, but Ted and Marshall interrupt, saying the joke is "boy funny." Barney insists that Lily is "one of the boys", and she will love it. The camera zooms in on Barney's lips as he says the joke, and Future Ted talks over the punch line, calling it "one of the dirtiest jokes I have ever heard, to this day." Lily promptly leaves, and is not seen for four weeks.
After losing his job, Ted is finally starting his own architectural design firm, Mosbius Designs. He is focused on several trivial matters, like the firm's official pen. Robin, who is still living in the apartment, tells Ted he has to start calling potential clients and stop procrastinating. When she returns the next day, she finds a desk in the middle of the living room, occupied by the domineering and sycophantic PJ, Ted's new intern.
PJ treats the apartment like an office, restricting use of the bathroom and screening visitors for Ted. His boyish good looks and pseudo-authority turn Robin on, and a few days later, PJ supposedly calls from the top of the Empire State Building, but the caller ID shows him calling from inside the apartment, in the same bed as Robin.
Outraged, Ted fires PJ, who then hangs out at the apartment to spend time with Robin. While Ted is working in the background, PJ flirts with Robin, to the point where she feels smothered, and breaks up with him (with what Ted declares "the worst break-up ever"). Ted then re-hires PJ, but the renewed authority excites Robin, and she quickly takes up with him again. Eventually, PJ decides to leave, leaving Robin a letter of explanation, and giving Ted a bouquet of roses.
When Barney hears about PJ, he is furious, having assumed Ted would know better and hire an attractive young woman (and also having sent an inappropriate letter and underwear to PJ). But, after he hears Robin is sleeping with PJ, he becomes incredibly jealous, and unable to talk it over with Lily, confesses his love of Robin to Marshall, who actually already knew.
Meanwhile, at GNB, Marshall is worried about keeping his job, and Barney suggests getting a "thing." He mentions "Food Guy," an accounts associate who, while totally expendable financially, has become an office fixture with his delicious culinary offerings. Then, he reminds Marshall of "Toy Guy," the Human Resources executive who keeps a collection of toys in his office (a flashback shows them fighting with Wolverine claws as the executive quickly goes over reduction in overtime pay). Which then reminds them of "YouTube Clip Guy". Barney then warns Marshall to be careful choosing his thing he doesn't want to be like "Creepy Back Rub Guy".
Marshall decides to run a fantasy baseball league, like he did in college, making him "Sports Guy" ("Fantasy Guy" being a co-worker who walks around in a wizard's robe). But, after having to handle $18,000 in cash (which he then nervously walks down the street with), and getting demands from co-workers at all hours, Marshall decides he cannot continue.
We then see the GNB employees swarmed around a table, yelling demands about the fantasy league at someone, who is quickly revealed as PJ, who Marshall has hired as a paralegal to take all the legwork of running the league. Barney compliments him on his delegating, and thanks him for getting PJ away from Robin.
Later, Barney and Marshall are passed by Food Guy and Toy Guy in the corridor. They are then passed by a ninja who doesn't work at GNB. Barney tells Marshall that they should evacuate the building because this has happened before.
- Lily calls The Apartment a "boy apartment" in The Duel.
- PJ calls Ted from inside the apartment and tells him he is on top of the Empire State Building, when he is actually in bed with Robin. In First Time In New York, Lily and Marshall use the Empire State Building as a metaphor for having sex.
- When Ted thinks PJ is at the Empire State Building, he tells him to "listen to the old gal". Ted's love of the building came up in First Time In New York.
- Barney's jealousy over other guys hooking up with Robin manifested in Benefits, where he freaks out over Ted and Robin's friends-with-benefits arrangement.
- Barney told Lily that he is in love with Robin in Do I Know You?, and Ted figures it out in Benefits.
Future References (Contains Spoilers)
- Ted's love of the Empire State Building appears again in Zoo or False and Last Time in New York.
- Barney's jealousy over Robin recurs in Definitions, where he punches Brad for kissing her.
- Future Ted mentions that, following Barney telling her the joke, the gang would not see Lily for four weeks, and indeed Lily only rejoins them at the bar in As Fast As She Can, which occurs four weeks after this episode.
- Marshall reveals that he knows about Barney's feelings for Robin, and admits in The Leap that Lily told him the day after Barney told her. Thus, everyone in the gang, except for Robin herself, knows.
- Mosbius Designs eventually fails in The Leap after Ted loses business to Swedish architecture collective Sven, prompting him to start teaching architecture at Columbia University, which he does from Definitions onwards.
- While Barney claims that he would never lose his job because of how much he knows about the company, he faces the risk of getting fired in Perfect Week. His bravado also hints at the reveal of his actual job in Unpause, that he signs legally-binding documents implicating himself in the company's illegal activity.

Memorable Quotes
|PJ's not some hot chick you're banging?
|No, I'm mentoring him.
|Mentoring... I mentored a young fellow once. Even made him my wingman. Then, one day, he hired an assistant to work ten feet from his bedroom who—get this—isn't a hot chick. Proving he never listened to a word I said. And do you know that young man's name?
|Ted Mosby?
|Maybe. I don't remember. Because he is DEAD TO ME!
- —Barney is scandalized by PJ's gender
|Hey, PJ, I actually have an architectural question for you: How does Ted's ass taste?
|I wouldn't know. But I assume it tastes like genius.
|Are you telling me that I can't go to the bathroom in my apartment?
|No. I am telling you that you need to ask permission to use the bathroom in my office.
|Why is that so hot?
- —Robin recalls how she and PJ hooked up
|I told you to hire a cute assistant that you can sleep with, but instead you hire a cute assistant that Robin can sleep with and of course he's going to sleep with her, Ted, look at her! She's the greatest woman on the planet!—I'm getting off-topic: You're an idiot! That's my message: You're an idiot!
- —Barney is really upset about Robin and PJ
|A hot guy telling you when you can and can't pee? That's the dream.
Notes and Trivia
Goofs and Errors
- When Marshall tells Barney how hard it is to be sports guy, because of all the money he carries (flashback), they are at Marshall's office. When the flashback ends, Marshall and Barney are at the pub.
- The discontinuity may be purposeful, showing that the conversation is extending over a few hours to emphasize just how hard a time Marshall is having.
Allusions and Outside References
- At the end of the episode, Ted tells Robin the story of the architect who designs a library, only to find that it slowly sinks due to his not accounting for the weight of the books therein. This story is a common urban legend.[1]
- Wolverine is featured in the Toy Guy scene (toy claws) and in the background during Marshall's nervous walk home, posters for the film X-Men Origins: Wolverine can be seen in the background.[2][3]
- After answering PJ's call, Ted checks the phone number, and exclaims, "Oh my God, the call's coming from inside the house..." This a reference to the movie "When A Stranger Calls".
- Fantasy Guy was wearing black robes with blue lining, the same as the Game Masters from the MMORPG World of Warcraft.
- One of Marshall's proposed ways to be indispensable in the office is to become "Monty Python Guy," which Barney nixes with, "We are the Knights Who Say You're Fired!" referring to the Knights Who Say Ni, encountered by King Arthur and Sir Bedevere the Wise in Terry Gilliam and Terry Jones' 1975 film, Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
- Action figures of Kamen Riders #1 and V3 as well as Ultraseven can be seen in the background of Toy Guy's office.
- The name of Ted's firm "Mosbius Designs" may be a play-on-words reference to August Ferdinand Möbius, the mathematician famous for the Möbius Strip, a 2 dimensional surface with only 1 side in a 3 dimensional Euclidean space.
- The newspaper delivery man says that "it's a dirty job, but someone's gotta do it." This is a line from the song, We Care a Lot, and a possible reference to the tv show, Dirty Jobs.
Other Notes
- Barney tells a joke at the start of the show: "What is the difference between peanut butter and jam?" The punch line, not heard in the show, is usually "I can't peanut-butter my dick up your ass".
- The dirty joke was added as an excuse to allow Alyson Hannigan to make a short appearance in the cold opening and then be absent for several episodes afterwards, as this was filmed during her last weeks of pregnancy. [4]
- In November 2008, Cobie Smulders and her boyfriend Taran Killam announced that they were expecting their first child, and she is visibly pregnant in this episode. [5][6]
- Ryan Sypek - PJ
- Bo Barrett - Guy #2
- Edward Flores - Food Guy

(And Then Some)
When you can divide your life
into one-fourth century segments,
years collide by twenty-five and even
now as the indignity of nearing another
two-thirds of twenty-five brushes up
against your back, you begin to peek
into the pages of your past. The temptation
is not as much the desire to skip ahead-
liking happy endings as we humans do-
rather to recalibrate judgment's scale to measure
true. The trick, I am just relearning
is to keep my finger off the counterpoint
labeled regret in order to let mistakes
rise higher, to balance out the equation of my life.
There is power in dividing by twenty-five,
and then some.

More finds from various op shops in Rosebud over the weekend – above, sparrow salt and pepper shakers; below, melamine cups and an original Decor water jug. Hot damn, Rosebud is a treasure trove of great op shops. And the op shops are treasure troves of great stuff. In truth, there is much treasure to be found – but there is no map. I feel I should put in some kind of piratey interjection here, what with all this mention of treasure, but I'm not channelling Captain Jack Sparrow very well this evening.

A multi site migration can result in a better user experience, increased organic metrics and a simpler long-term management solution. But many SEO's get hung up or miss the most critical pieces to a successful transfer. Having done many migrations I can say there is more to it than you may have previously thought.
Let's start with the fun part, Research.
Exactly - Not so exciting. But this is the most important part of the process. A professional SEO expert will compound hours of research and data to formulate the best migration plan. Creating lists of high priority content, looking at search console and evaluating how you will accomplish the project.
Research can be an intangible to a client. Sending them a spreadsheet of URLs with a roadmap and justification is good document to ease their mind. But how you come up with that roadmap is part of your strategy, which you should pull from research online from others who have done it.
Here are some of the items one needs to consider for a multi site migration to maintain as much of their SEO value as possible:
NOTE: It is recommended not to change the following at the same time during site migration:
Todd Bailey is Director of Search, Media and PR with Gen3 Marketing and US Brand Ambassador for Majestic SEO. Also, Founder/Editor of pushStar.com

Last Sunday I travelled to London with my mum, sister and some family friends to attend a huge dance convention called Move It! Move It happens once a year and is a place for dancers and dance enthusiasts to meet, perform, watch shows, find out about drama schools and buy merchandise and dance gear. I have wanted to go for the last few years now and I finally got the chance to last weekend! We had such a good time that I thought I'd share my experiences with you!
Move It was held at the London Expo Centre which is absolutely massive! The part we were in had space for hundreds of stalls, 3 stages and lots and lots of people - and it didn't even take up half of it! As we walked through the entrance there were bright purple lights and music - it felt like a premiere! As soon as we got in we were met by hundreds of stalls as far as we could see! Most of them were advertising drama schools which wasn't really relevant for us as I'm already in film school and my sister is a bit too young.
We slowly made it all the way to the back where there was the main stage. We watched a few performances there but there was nothing to tell you who was performing when and a lot of the time the stage was empty and a huge screen playing a video of someone interviewing dancers was there instead which we found quite boring really.
There were quite a few famous faces at the event, including Jennifer Ellison and her school, Jelli Studios, which you might know from the UK version of Dance Mums. My sister and her friend were very excited to meet her as well as some of the girls from the show. I really liked their stall as it had an awesome VW Camper Van that they were selling merch out of!
Another famous person there and argueably one of the main reasons we went - was Abby Lee Miller from Dance Moms! We went to her stall which was absolutely swamped and I eventually managed to get myself a hoodie, whilst my sister got a top. Abby wasn't at the stall so we assumed she wasn't there that day, but later on we saw her doing a signing! We tried to get in the line but the security said no one else was allowed to queue which was really dissapointing. Abby seemed really unhappy with the way things were being run there that she eventually walked out of where she was signing and set up just outside of the Move It entrance, which unsuprisingly became absolutely packed not long after. So I didn't get to meet her but I did meet one of the girls on the show called Brynn.
Just after we took this selfie a big group of girls ran towards her which kind of trapped both of us in this little space (there was a rope between us) and she ended up getting attached to my bag which was very awkward and a very typical thing to happen to me!
My mum was most excited to meet Karen and Kevin from Strictly Come Dancing as she's a massive fan of the show! They were the people we were supposed to be queueing up for before we saw Abby Lee and luckily we still managed to get a picture with them after all that chaos!
Unfortunately amongst all the drama we completely forgot to go and queue up to meet Darcey Bussell, one of my childhood idols! But hopefully if we go back next year she will be there again!
Some other highlights of the day were going into the big red bus and having our photos taken in the photo booth, getting my lips done up with glitter and watching some of the showcases! My favourite ones were probably Jelli Studios and the MADD School.
-- Exciting Announcement! --
I have started a Youtube channel! So far I have been using it as a platform to share my short films and whilst I still plan on doing that, I'm also starting to upload vlogs and will be uploading some beauty related videos soon too!
If you'd like to find out more about what I got up to at Move It you can watch my vlog here! It would mean a lot if you left me a comment telling me what you thought of it and what you'd like to see in the future! Also subscribe if you're feeling really nice!
See you soon,
Beth x

This email chain is so funny! I had a full day yesterday and wasn't online much. Well, my mother was in a PANIC over the whole thing. I woke up this morning to these two emails – apparently she was so nervous that I wasn't on social media. Nervous enough to think that something happened to me. LOL!! Come on! I'm dying over this.
The best part – she never called me yesterday to see how I was doing. She just kept putting stuff on my Facebook wall (which I wasn't checking).
I can't imagine how it's going to be when I am a mom of an older child. If only there was a chip we could install in them. 😉

Transmission is my favorite BitTorrent Client in Ubuntu, so far. One day, Transmission cannot be started. When I click on the icon, nothing happen. And i cannot re-install it, using both Ubuntu Software Center and Synaptic Package Manager.
Finally, I re-install it using the commands:
$sudo add-apt-repository ppa:transmissionbt/ppa
$sudo apt-get update
$sudo apt-get install transmission
It's work again now:)

A sacred evening is one that you reserve for yourself to do exactly as you please. What does this look like? Only you can answer that, but here are some ideas: a stroll in the park, bubble bath, massage, reading a book, concert or just doing nothing. It is a time for you to be by yourself, to play, to rest, to relax. Setting this time apart for higher purposes makes it sacred for you. Avoid doing mundane tasks or to-do's during this time. If you don't take this time, it will get schedule away like the rest of your life.
What to do with this time? Be creative! Use the time to come up with ideas, dream or finally begin that novel. Want to develop your creative side even more? Buy some paints and play around with them, see an opera, visit a museum. The idea is to do one thing a week to nurture your creative self.
Look at your calendar, take out a yellow highlighter, and block off these free evenings. Block off one a week. If you have children, have your spouse watch them during your one night. You can then return the favor. You will each be relaxed, refreshed and happier.
If you are interested in coaching or have questions, please feel free to contact me.

I Believe
Beliefs are what make us who we are and separate us from the crowd. No two people think about life the exact same way and that is what makes us all unique and interesting. I believe in family and that without my parents love and support I wouldn't be who I am today. Growing up with a younger sister and the oldest of 10 younger cousins I believe I am a role model and that had a great influence on the person I have become. I believe in self expression and that each person does this in their own way. I express myself best through music and my home is performing in front of a crowd. Though I've performed music in front of hundreds to thousands of people for years I believe I have a block when it comes to speaking in front of these crowds. I believe in the power of music, whether you're happy, sad, angry, depressed, or lonely, there is music for your state of mind. I believe Dave Matthews is one of the best performers of our generation, but while bands like Dave, Aerosmith, Nirvana, Pink Floyd, and The Beatles are all good, nothing compares with the smash hits of the 18th century by Mr. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. I believe in Comedy, and that Laughter surpasses all language barriers. I believe in this day in age many people take themselves too seriously and if we can't learn to laugh at ourselves once in a while then we are lost. I believe in freedom and that the United States is the greatest country on earth. However everyone is guilty of taking that freedom for granted sometimes. I believe in space exploration and that although it won't be found in my life time there is life somewhere else in the universe. I believe in love and that though I've lost it in the past somewhere out there is the right girl for me.
I believe in technology and globalization. We are growing up during the most exciting time there has ever been and I can't wait to see what new innovations will be brought about in my lifetime. I also believe in taking responsibility for our actions, that global warming is a serious problem and can't be put off any longer if we intend to do anything about it. I am a gamer and believe in competition. I believe that poker is a game of skill not luck, Deus Ex was the greatest computer game ever made, and that while I can't begin to understand chess, I'll take anyone to school in Checkers, which we all know is the REAL game of strategy. I believe when it comes to life you have to roll the dice, and take chances. We're only here for a short time but I believe in the words of Dave Matthews that "Celebrate we will, Because Life is short but sweet for certain."
