STAFFORD, TEXAS. Stafford is on Farm Road 1092 and the boundary between Fort Bend and Harris counties, just east of the junction of U.S. highways 90A and 59. In 1830 William Stafford installed a cane mill and opened a horse-powered cotton gin, reported to have been the first in Stephen F. Austin's colony. Antonio López de Santa Anna and a detachment of his army halted at Stafford's plantation on April 15, 1836, during the march to Harrisburg. The famished Mexican troops feasted on Stafford's corn, sheep, and hogs. Before they departed Santa Anna ordered the plantation's buildings burned. After the Texas Revolution Stafford rebuilt the plantation and lived there until his death in 1840. Paschal Pavolo Borden was a resident of the settlement called Stafford Point that grew up around the plantation, but no genuine townsite developed until August 1853, when it became a stop on the Buffalo Bayou, Brazos and Colorado Railway. The event was celebrated by a barbecue at which Francis Richard Lubbock was one of the many speakers. The Galveston News reported in September 1853 that the train would run between Harrisburg and Stafford's Point each Wednesday and Saturday; on August 11, 1855, the Texas Sun reported a daily run between Harrisburg and Stafford Point. By December 1855 the line had been extended to Richmond, which replaced Stafford as the terminus. The evolution of the community's various names may be traced through its post offices. Stafford's Point had a post office from 1854 to 1869. Staffordville had a short-lived post office from January 5 until February 26, 1869. Thereafter, the settlement, now known as Stafford, maintained a post office from 1869 to 1918; the facility reopened in 1929 and has remained in continuous operation under that name. In 1884 Stafford had two general stores, one grocer, and a population of fifty; by 1896 it had a corn mill and gin, a physician, two grocers, two general stores, a hotel, a lawyer, a livestock raiser, a saloon, and a population of 300. By 1914 the population had dropped to 100 and the businesses to a general store, a blacksmith, and a telephone connection. In 1931 an estimated 320 residents and eight businesses were registered. In 1946 the population had risen to 400 and the businesses to nine. Stafford incorporated in 1956. By 1961 the town had a population of 1,485 and twenty-two businesses. It had 5,582 residents and 197 businesses by 1980 and 8,397 inhabitants in 1990. Stafford schools were a part of the Fort Bend Independent School District until 1977. That year residents voted to form the Stafford Municipal School District, the only municipal school district in the state. Efforts were made to block this action, but in 1981, following several rounds of federal litigation, the courts declared the Stafford Municipal School District to be constitutional. The rapid growth of Stafford since the 1960s may be partly attributed to expansion in Houston. By the 1980s the town was a suburb, and many Stafford residents commuted to jobs in the city. In 2000 the community had 1,923 businesses and 15,681 inhabitants.

The Navy and Lockheed Martin recently tested an airborne-relay sensor and networking technology that allows ships to locate and destroy threats and targets that would otherwise be beyond the radar horizon, service and industry officials said.
Called the Naval Integrated Fire Control – Counter Air, or NIFC-CA, the August test involved the firing of a Standard Missile 6, or SM-6, from the USS Chancellorsville, a Navy cruiser.
An airborne sensor identifies a target beyond the horizon and networks that information into the ship's fire control system, allowing the ship's radar to track and destroy targets at much greater distances, Navy and Lockheed officials said.
"Initial track detections are made by the E-2D Advanced Hawkeye aircraft and are forwarded over our CEC (cooperative engagement capability) network," a Navy official said. "The 'from the sea' kill chain aspect of NIFC-CA results in an SM-6 missile being launched from an Aegis ship at a contact that is located over the traditional radar horizon."
Therefore, should things continue to develop with NIFC-CA, the technology brings the possibility of greatly extending the protective envelope surrounding ships at sea.
"Being able to take on a target that is beyond a ship's radar horizon is very significant. That is a capability that ships did not have before," said Jim Sheridan, a Lockheed official.
Overall, the Navy plans to expand the number of ships with Aegis Radar capability as well as continue to improve the Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense weapons system software. The Aegis BMW weapons system software is configured in increments, ranging from Aegis BMD 3.6 to 4.0, 5.0 and 5.1.
There are currently 22 Navy cruisers and 62 Navy destroyers equipped with Aegis technology, Navy officials said. Of these ships, five cruisers and 28 destroyers are currently capable of Ballistic Missile Defense. At the same time, the Navy plans to continue to upgrade much of its fleet with Aegis BMD weapons system 4.0, 5.0 and 5.1, service officials said.
The Navy plans to have two cruisers and seven destroyers equipped with Aegis BMD 4.0, numbers which may very well grow larger, service officials indicated. At the same time, six of the Navy's original destroyers will receive BMD 5.0.
"Our newer destroyers will all be equipped with BMD 5.0 and follow-on variants such as 5.1. That includes modernizing all destroyers with hull numbers 79 — 112 to have this capability and building all new destroyers, beginning with hull number 113 from 'the keel up' with this level of capability," a Navy official said.
Both BMD 5.0 and BMD 5.1 have the technology to enable a multi-mission signal processor which allows ships to conduct air defense missions and ballistic missile defense missions concurrently.
"The Aegis Multi-mission Signal Processor (MMSP) is a piece of equipment which combines a BMD Signal Processor and an advanced SPY radar signal processor in a single cabinet. BMD 5.0 and follow-on variants will use the MMSP. This piece of equipment, among other things, uses synthetic processing to help the ship discriminate lethal objects from the debris cloud that accompanies a ballistic missile en route to its target," Navy officials said.
The Navy destroyer USS John Paul Jones is currently configured with Aegis BMD 5.0; the ship is slated for additional air defense testing at the Pacific Missile Test Facility, Hawaii.

Roundtable: Digital Infrastructure in Hong Kong
A conversation between practitioners, activists, and academics
This roundtable aims to shed light on the connection between digital infrastructure and the city of Hong Kong. Internet freedoms such as privacy and access to information are important for business and civil society alike in Hong Kong as a Special Administrative Region of China. But are there different, contextual understandings of such legal and normative concepts and how do we probe their materializations? To what extent does infrastructure emerge in public discussion or remain unremarkable? Do technological developments exceed legal formulations and what kinds of situations—be they of freedom or vulnerability—stem from such regulatory shortfall or lag? Last, what possibilities do the panelists think exist to imagine, define, design and secure internet freedoms in Hong Kong?

"Your World is So Waiting for You"
The world you want is waiting for you - the world you dream of and want to be a part of - not some cruel, scary dog-eat-dog world. It is the world you wish to create for yourself. That is the world waiting. That world loves you and when you acknowledge this, you are loving life.
Today when you pass something you hate, send love rather than resistance, and you will place yourself in the middle of a great cloud parting at that moment . You do not wait to bandage a bleeding wound. This is how quickly we ask you to move to act internally. We ask you to understand that when you feel pain or discomfort, anger, frustration etc. a cut has opened and you are losing blood = joy. And you don't want to weaken yourself by waiting too long to stop the bleeding. You get the bandage and work to help stop the loss now.
This is what we want for you: to tend to the loss of Joy now - loss of connection to life now. Don't stand around complaining about it - act- care for it. Act with love, to care for the wound. Right away. When you do - the loss stops and you do not become weakened by the experience, nor exhausted by it.
This is the I love you. Tend it. And when you do? The "loss" stops - the sense of despair, of losing connection (=joy) with life and meaning - stops. It has to because you're back in touch. It is life giving.

ISPA is the UK trade association for ISPs in the UK. Members of ISPA agree to sign up to and adhere to a code of practice that is recognised as a sign of good business practice. ISPA members include large consumer-facing ISPs, providers that focus on niche services, business2business specialists, hosting companies and fixed and wireless ISPs.
When choosing an ISP, customers should always choose an ISPA member. ISPA operates a complaints procedure and a code of practice that members must commit to. If your ISP is an ISPA member and you have any problems, ISPA can help rather than you needing to consult Trading Standards or a lawyer.
All ISPs must be members of an Alternative Dispute Resolution scheme, the two Ofcom-approved schemes are the Communications - Ombudsman Service and CISAS.
It is not recommended to select an ISP by price alone. Not all ISPs offer the same services. Customers should look closely at what is offered and decide what they actually need.

Modern Nightstands for a Polished and Functional Bedroom
By on in Bedroom
We hope you like the products we recommend. Just so you are aware, Freshome may collect a share of sales from the links on this page.
The star of your bedroom may be the bed, but don't count out nightstands as an essential part of the room. A bedroom without a bedside table means that things like your clock, smartphone, books and lamps are without a home.
When choosing nightstands, be mindful of the space available. Smaller spaces may not be able to handle more than one bedside table. Mix it up, if you are so inclined; the matching nightstand rule was made to be broken.
Don't be afraid to get creative; consider side tables or end tables as options. A Moroccan pouf or cube ottoman with a tray on top also are alternatives to traditional nightstands. Finally, keep in mind your mattress height; you'll want to make sure your table isn't too high or low.
Modern Nightstands
CB2 SAIC Sling Nightstand/Side Table
If you are a non-conformist, the SAIC Sling Nightstand/Side Table is for you. The sophisticated piece ($249) was designed for CB2 in collaboration with students at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. It's on-trend in a hand-finished brass tone and features a leather sling for magazines, books or other items.
West Elm Penelope Nightstand
Break up the hard edges and angles in a bedroom with a pair of Penelopes ($349-$399), available in two sizes (18″ or 24″ round) designed to fit any space. One drawer is the perfect catch-all for all the clutter you'd rather not leave out. The striking look of marble with a warm wood stain, antique brass detailing and tapered legs add a mid-century touch.
Crate&kids Campaign Nightstand
If you're looking to add a pop of color to your bedroom, give the Campaign nightstand ($299) a look. Available in bright fuchsia, kelly green or white, with brass-finished brackets and pulls, it's bound to add life to the room.
Urban Outfitters Metal Accordion Side Table
We all need a little industrial chic in our lives, and the Accordion Side Table ($79) by Urban Outfitters delivers. The tray top is removable for when you crave breakfast in bed. The table, available in an antique bronze or brass finish, works well as a nightstand for a small space because it can be folded up and stored when not needed.
Gus Modern Wilson End Table
The two-tone look in walnut and white lacquer make this simple, modern table ($399) a fresh nightstand option. The boxy design may appear no-frills, but the walnut woodgrain and glossy white lacquer offer rich detailing, and the self-closing drawer adds a nice touch.
Ikea PS 2014
The creative use of individual, colorful stacking trays give this Ikea nightstand ($69) its function and beauty. Each plastic tray serves as a storage spot, and you can stack them however you like. If you're partial to understated elegance, an all-white version is available.
Casabianca Furniture Bari 1-Drawer Nightstand
Add a contemporary edge to your bedroom with this barely-there nightstand by Casabianca ($450). The combination of glass, stainless steel hardware and a floating glossy black, red or white drawer hold your bedside necessities stylishly and architecturally.
South Shore Gravity 2-Drawer Nightstand
This simple nightstand may be classic in styling, but the gray-wash tone is modern. And for $100, there's no excuse for having a nightstand-free bedroom any longer. It's a great option if you're looking for a piece that offers more storage.
Room & Board Hudson C-Table/Nightstand
If you're ready for a quality investment, the Hudson nightstand ($599) is waiting. Made in the USA and available in a selection of stains, the single ash or maple drawer sits atop a steel base. Leave the clever C-shaped base open, or use the space underneath for books, a basket or an ottoman.
Vig Furniture Modrest 2-Drawer Nightstand
The clean-lined Modrest nightstand ($450) features an interesting asymmetrical detail. White painted glass gives it a fresh, modern look regardless of how long you've owned it. The two large drawers will hold nearly anything you keep around your bed.
Whichever style you choose, make the look your own; just remember to consider function as well as style when selecting a modern nightstand for your bedroom. We hope these ideas have inspired you!

Tag : Bathroom Tile Shower
Terrific Bathroom features Open Shower with Gray Mosaic Tiles
By Bruce WayneThe motif of this tiled wall is beautiful. I think it is a good idea to install patterned tile to one of the shower wall, so it does not feel boring. The geometrical pattern here is pretty and it looks elegant. The motif is not too big or too small, so it does not feel childish or unattractive. Moreover, the gray color of the tiles makes the shower appear elegant with silver shower switches. The gray marble tiled wall next to the patterned tile makes the shower more gorgeous. The brown marble tiled flooring that matches with the wall complete the inspirational shower design.

Brownback demanded an apology from former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee Wednesday.
WASHINGTON (CNN) - Kansas Sen. Sam Brownback demanded an apology from former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee on Wednesday for an e-mail sent to religious leaders in Iowa as part of what Brownback called an "effort to demoralize his supporters."
Rev. Tim Rude, a volunteer for Huckabee's campaign, sent an e-mail to evangelicals in Iowa, trying to persuade them to choose Huckabee over Brownback. Rude, a self-proclaimed "recovering Catholic," criticized Brownback for converting to Catholicism and said that's all he needs to "know about his discernment" to choose Huckabee over him.
Huckabee said he had nothing to do with Rude's letter. "We are glad that Rev. Rude issued an apology and clarification for his comments. They were not authorized by, disseminated by, approved by, or condoned by the campaign," Huckabee said in a statement.
But Brownback's campaign still slammed Huckabee for not directly apologizing for the letter.
"Why is Governor Huckabee hesitating to denounce the anti-Catholic comments from his supporter, Pastor Tim Rude? It is hard to imagine that Governor Huckabee thinks Pastor Tim Rude's prejudiced tactics are acceptable," Brownback spokesman John Rankin said.
Brownback and Huckabee are two of the candidates planning to participate in Iowa's straw poll in less than two weeks.
–CNN Associate Producer Lauren Kornreich
Attorney General Alberto Gonzales
WASHINGTON (CNN) - With a potential perjury threat hanging over him, embattled Attorney General Alberto Gonzales late Wednesday sent a letter to Senate leaders acknowledging he "may have created confusion" in his previous testimony but insisted he did not mean to mislead Senators and was "determined to address any such impression."
In a two-page letter to Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., who chairs the Senate Judiciary Committee, Gonzales defended his testimony while conceding his language in describing highly classified National Security Agency surveillance activities had not been clear.
"I am deeply concerned with suggestions that my testimony was misleading, and am determined to address any such impression," Gonzales told Leahy.
"I recognize that the use of the term 'Terrorist Surveillance Program' and my shorthand reference to the 'program' publicly 'described by the President' may have created confusion, particularly for those who are knowledgeable about the NSA activities authorized in the presidential order described by the DNI, and who may be accustomed to thinking of them or
referring to them together as a single NSA 'program.'"
Clinton took issue with comments by Vice President Cheney.
(CNN) - Sen. Hillary Clinton Wednesday struck back at Vice President Dick Cheney, after he said that he supported Defense Department officials who chided the New York Democrat for requesting a withdrawal plan from Iraq.
In May, Clinton sent a letter to the Pentagon asking Defense Secretary Robert Gates to brief Congress on contingency plans for withdrawing U.S. troops from Iraq. Defense Undersecretary Eric Edelman responded in a letter to Clinton that public discussion of troop withdrawals "reinforces enemy propoganda." Defense Secretary Robert Gates sent a follow up letter to Clinton expressing
resentment regret that "this important discussion went astray." Gates reaffirmed his belief in congressional oversight of government.
In an interview with CNN's Larry King Tuesday, Cheney said "I agreed with the letter Eric Edelman wrote. I thought it was a good letter."
Clinton fired back with a letter to Cheney, saying "Your comments agreeing with Under Secretary Edelman, not Secretary Gates, have left me wondering about the true position of the Administration," the Democratic presidential candidate said. "Therefore I am writing to President Bush asking that he set the record straight about the Administration's position regarding the role of Congress in oversight of the war."
Also on Wednesday, Clinton urged supporters to sign a letter from her calling for clarification on Bush administration Iraq policy. "Its time to find out exactly where the Bush administration stands on this issue," Clinton said. "I'm going to send a letter to President Bush, and I want your name to be on it," she said in an e-mail to supporters.
"I couldn't care less what Dick Cheney says about me," she said in her e-mail to supporters. "But when he plays politics with the lives of our troops, you had better be sure I'm going to respond."
Megan McGinn, Vice President Cheney's spokeswoman, said Cheney had nothing to add beyond his comments with King Tuesday night.

Brownback girl debuted in Kansas on Wednesday/Courtesy: Richard Crowson, The Wichita Eagle.
WASHINGTON (CNN) - Obama Girl and Giuliani Girl just got new competition. The new Brownback Girl made "her" debut Wednesday in a Church Lady meets Madonna music video on The Wichita Eagle's Web site.
"Cause we are living in a sinful world and I am a Brownback girl," the new Brownback girl sings to the tune of Madonna's "Material Girl."
But Brownback Girl is no, well, girl. The star of the video is Bucky Walters, a local hairstylist in Wichita and actor known for playing women. In the video, Walters struts around a church, clad in a black suit, a gray curly wig, gold hoop earrings and knee-high stockings.
"Sam loves stem cells, wants gays in jail, isn't that special to me? He'll appoint more right wing judges and overturn Roe V," Walters sings. "Candidates pry, and some just lie, but Sam's just not that way. No way. He would never use religion to win on election day."
After seeing videos posted by young women on YouTube for some of the other candidates, the Wichita Eagle's Opinion page staff imagined what their senator's "girl" would look like. They decided to produce the video. "It's a spoof of other candidates' videos, not of Sen. Brownback," opinion editor Phillip Brownlee said. "We're just having some fun. At his expense, perhaps."

WASHINGTON (CNN) - A few hours after Sen. Barack Obama unveiled his plan to combat terrorism worldwide on Wednesday, Sen. Joe Biden's campaign criticized him for saying too little, too late.
"We find it a little disingenuous that Sen. Obama is hailing this as a new bold initiative when he has neglected to join his colleagues in the Senate when the opportunities have been there to redirect our forces into Afghanistan," Biden's campaign manager, Luis Navarro, said in a statement. "It's good to see Sen. Obama has finally arrived at the right position, but this can hardly be considered bold leadership."
In a press release, Biden's campaign called Obama's speech a "Johnny-come-lately position." The release stated that Biden has "already initiated or accomplished" most of the propositions listed in Obama's speech. Biden's campaign also said Obama didn't ask tough enough questions during a Senate Foreign Relations hearing on the troop surge in Iraq.
"While we respect Senator Biden's very long career in Washington, it's no surprise that Obama's bold, new vision to take on terrorists has shaken up the status quo in our nation's capitol," Obama spokesman Bill Burton said.

Obama discussed his ideas for fighting terrorism on Wednesday.
WASHINGTON (CNN) –Sen. Barack Obama says he would shift the war on terror to Afghanistan and Pakistan in a speech he delivered Wednesday.
In his speech, Obama, D-Illinois, said things would look different in an Obama administration: "When I am president, we will wage the war that has to be won, with a comprehensive strategy with five elements: getting out of Iraq and on the right battlefield in Afghanistan and Pakistan; developing the capabilities and partnerships we need to take out the terrorists and the world's most deadly weapons; engaging the world to dry up support for terror and extremism; restoring our values; and securing a more resilient homeland."
Obama says the war in Iraq has left Americans more in danger than before 9/11.
"The President would have us believe that every bomb in Baghdad is part of al Qaeda's war against us, not an Iraqi civil war," Obama will say. "He elevates al Qaeda in Iraq - which didn't exist before our invasion - and overlooks the people who hit us on 9/11, who are training recruits in Pakistan."
Despite the challenges, and potentially destabilizing effect U.S. military action inside Pakistan could create, Obama said it was important to remain enagaged there. "There are terrorists holed up in those mountains who murdered 3,000 Americans. They are plotting to strike again," he will say. "It was a terrible mistake to fail to act when we had a chance to take out an al Qaeda leadership meeting in 2005. If we have actionable intelligence about high-value terrorist targets, and President Musharraf won't act, we will."
Obama also reiterated his disagreement with the Bush administration's diplomatic posture. "It's time to turn the page on the diplomacy of tough talk and no action," he said. "It's time to turn the page on Washington's conventional wisdom that agreement must be reached before you meet, that talking to other countries is some kind of reward, and that Presidents can only meet with people who will tell them what they want to hear."
Obama also said he would create an international intelligence and law enforcement infrastructure to address terrorist threats from Indonesia to Africa.
Obama delivered his remarks at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars in Washington, D.C.

Rumsfeld appeared before a House committee Wednesday.
WASHINGTON (CNN) - Former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld told a House committee Wednesday that he doesn't recall when he learned that there was a chance that the death of Army Ranger Cpl. Pat Tillman was the result of friendly fire.
"I don't recall when I was told. I don't remember who told me," Rumsfeld said under questioning by Rep. Tom Davis, the committee's ranking Republican. However, he said that because investigations were ongoing, he didn't make anything public.
"I have a great deal of heartbreak for the Tillman family and the way it was handled, adding to their grief. ... We certainly owe the young men and women better than that."
(CNN)–Sen. Chris Dodd, D-Connecticut, Wednesday objected to the pending purchase of Dow Jones and Company, the parent company of the "Wall Street Journal", by News Corp.
News Corp. owns the FOX network, the FOX NEWS cable channel, the New York Post and hundreds of other media entities.
"I am deeply troubled by the incredible amount of consolidation occurring across the American media landscape," the Democratic presidential candidate said. "The power of the media is swiftly being limited to a few controlling hands, which poses a serious threat to our democracy. The foundation of our democracy rests in our ability to hear from a diverse array of sources so that we can make informed decisions. The Wall Street Journal has provided a valuable and important news choice to the American public for years."
After three months, News Corp. chief executive and media tycoon Rupert Murdoch finally succeeded in his efforts to purchase Wall Street Journal publisher Dow Jones and Company
in a deal the companies valued at $5.6 billion. In a joint statement, News Corp. and Dow Jones announced early Wednesday that enough members of the Bancroft family, which own a controlling stake in the publisher of The Wall Street Journal, agreed to approve the takeover.
Dodd, who represents Connecticut in the Senate, said he was concerned about the paper's ability to maintain editorial independence under News Corporation ownership.

Critics believe he may enjoy special treatment while in prison for being an influential local politician of Cholburi province. His son, Sonthaya Khunpluem, is currently Cultural Minister.

In this cartoon former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra--who similarly fled a jail sentence--has lived in Dubai since 2008. The joke is Thaksin is afraid to be caught like Kamnan Poh after hearing the name of Pol.Lt.Gen. Pongpat.]

Jatu.... Promphan: Get in there fast… (If) it's granted amnesty, so will we.
Caption: Way to survive for buffalo keepers
[Buffaloes is a derisive term for a person and here the red buffaloes represent the pro-Thaksin Red Shirts.
This cartoon refers to the amnesty act which the opposition maintains should cover only people who joined in protests without committing any criminal acts. This means the leaders of the protests (especially the April-May 2010 protest of the Red Shirts), Thaksin, and Democrat Party leaders would not be granted amnesty.
The prospect of Red and Yellow groups signing on to an amnesty like this has allegedly panicked Red Shirt leaders who put their fortunes and lives on the line leading protests with the assurance that Thaksin could afterwards gain a pardon for all involved.
In the cartoon the leaders attempt to make sure they are seen as simply innocent protesters like most of the Red Shirt followers and not those who goaded the crowds to violence.]

Cartoon title: DSI under Tarits authority
[DSI stands for Department of Special Investigation. Tarit Pengdit is Director-General of of the department. Under the Pheu Thai government, Tarit has been criticized for using his power to serve the government. Many of the cases his department is working are not within his autonomy, for example the case between DSI and former prime minister and the Democrat Party's leader Abhisit Vejjajiva and former deputy prime minister Suthep Thuaksuban concerning the Red Shirt protest during April and mMy 2010. The latest one causing him his reputation is the construction project of 396 police stations nationwide. Again he has attempted to connect the case to the Pheu Thai arch-rival, the Democrat Party led by Abhisit and Suthep.
The building changing into a spirit house means changing from a respectful legal enforcing department to a mere nonsense spirit house that people cannot really rely on.]

Dear 2016,
Might I ask you a favor? Well, I'm going to go ahead and ask for it anyway whether you like it or not. It is actually going to be several favors, some more important than others.
Can we have some stability in oil and gas right now? I would love for oil prices to be higher than what they are today. I'm not asking for $120/barrel or anything, maybe at least $50? If that can't be possible, maybe at least stabilize things just a wee bit. No one has any idea what is going on and people are contradicting each other. It is hard to get an idea of what the future holds.
You see, a lot of us oilfield families have been bruised and battered in the last 12-18 months. We have lost jobs. People are hurting and marriages are struggling. Strong men who are used to being able to provide for their families are now struggling to do so. Egos are bruised and people are feeling beat down.
If we can't stabilize the industry right now, then I pray for direction and peace for my fellow oilfield families. I read the other day that 122,000 jobs have been lost. I'm sure a lot of those people are confused and don't know what direction to take. Can they have some peace and reassurance from you that things will get better? Maybe not right this second, but maybe in a few months? If the outlook in energy is not great, please provide them with other job opportunities.
Can you show these people that there are positive things from this experience? Can we have marriages grow stronger through these troubled times and not fall apart? Can couples become more financially savvy and learn from these times that saving and living below means are crucial?
Maybe I'm asking for too much. I just know that people are fighting for their jobs and worried about putting food on the table for their children. I know that when money becomes tight, other problems become exacerbated. I know that under pressure, tempers have an even shorter fuse. I know that people will turn to whatever means necessary to relieve some of the pressure. I hope it can be good things and they do not cause harm to themselves or others.
I know that the hard times are where we learn, grow, and become better people. It still sucks to go through the difficult times though. I hope that you will help people to know that they are not alone in this.
2016, I'm going to ask you the most important request of all. Can you show my fellow oilfield families that God loves them and is there for them no matter how turbulent times may be? He has a plan for each and every one of us even though it may not make sense in the moment.
I know that there is fear, uncertainty, worry, stress, anger, resentment, tears, and depression. There are also rays of hope, moments of happiness, and thinks to be thankful for always.
2016, give my fellow oilfield families a bit of hope this year.
Your friend,

Acupuncture for Headaches-no side effects
How can Acupuncture remedy headaches?
Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has a very consistent and philosophically-based framework for headache diagnosis and treatment. Acupuncture, as an effective treatment modality, has been applied to headaches from the earliest beginnings of TCM.
Acupuncture is not just only effective for migraine headaches, but also works very well for tension headaches, cluster headaches, post-traumatic headaches, and disease-related headaches that may be due to sinus problems, high blood pressure or sleeping disorders. The greatest advantage of acupuncture over Western medicine is that it causes virtually no harm. Some medications can have serious side effects and can (in some instances) actually lead to patients experiencing a "rebound" headache. Unlike synthetic medications, acupuncture has essentially no side effects, and the procedures for treating headaches are less invasive with acupuncture than with surgery.
Who gets headaches?
Nearly everyone will suffer a headache at some point in time. Headaches are one of the most common physical complaints that prompt people to treat themselves or seek professional help. It has been estimated that up to 50 million Americans suffer from severe, long-lasting, reacurring headaches. While most headaches are not necessarily symptomatic of another condition, they can be very distracting and account for significant amounts of time lost from work.
What are the different types of headaches?
Headaches fall into three main categories: tension-type, migraine and cervicogenic. Tension-type headaches are the most common. Many patients who endure tension-type headaches usually feel mild to moderate pain on both sides of their head. The pain is usually described as tight, stiff or constricting, almost as though there is a vice squeezing the head.
While migraines affect far fewer people than the tension-type headaches, they have a much shorter duration, but their symptoms are much more severe. They typically affect women more than men, with pain that usually occurs on one side of the head. Migraines can be so debilitating that they can cause loss of appetite, blurred vision, nausea and even vomiting.
Cervicogenic headaches are the most recently diagnosed type of headache and are musculoskeletal in nature. They may be caused by pain in the neck or spine that migrates to the head. Many times, cervicogenic headaches are undiagnosed because of their recent classification.
What are the results of Treatment?
Web M.D. wrote that people who received acupuncture were nearly four times as likely to report less suffering than those who received standard medical treatment alone, such as pain relievers.
"The results showed that patients who received acupuncture reported significant improvement in many quality of life measures," says researcher Remy Coeytaux, MD, assistant professor of family medicine at the University of North Carolina School of Medicine, in a news release. "The patients felt better, and the vast majority who got acupuncture reported that their headaches had improved during the six weeks of treatment

C'ville Arts Features – "A Cornucopia of Art" – During November
C'ville Arts Cooperative Gallery is proud to support the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank during the month of November. This group show will feature work that is related to food. Meet participating members from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. on November 4th, during the Historic Downtown Mall's First Friday event.
The Blue Ridge Area Food Bank exists for a few very simple reasons: Food sustains life. It restores options. It provides hope. Many of those who receive food from the Food Bank are the most vulnerable in our community. Four in 10 are children.
This is an opportunity you won't want to miss. Satisfy your hunger to support 2 terrific, local organizations during one event! The gallery will donate a percentage of our First Friday sales directly to the local Blue Ridge Area Food Bank. But that's not all; bring your canned goods and generous spirit because we will provide collection bins for the entire month of November! For more information about the Food Bank visit their web site www.brafb.org.

Take a peek at this Canadian's model truck collection!
I started collecting die-cast model trucks and cars after receiving my first Canadian Tire collectible from my brother-in-law, Dave, in 1992—I was hooked. Being a letter carrier and delivering to businesses, I'd buy their 1:24 scale models featuring such company names as NAPA, IDA, Watkins, Sears and Home Hardware. I now own 352 models altogether, including the entire collection of Canadian Tire store-issued collectibles, all of their 1:64 scale transports and the JM Schneider collection.
My pride and joy is my Home Hardware collection. After contacting their head office in St. Jacobs, Ont., I received a list of all the trucks they issued. Since moving to Southern Ontario four years ago, my wife Cheryl (who is just as excited to find a truck as I am) and I have been able to complete almost the entire collection, with the exception of three 1:64 scale trucks. Recently, I acquired a 1:24 scale model of a 1964 baby-blue 40th-anniversary edition Mustang hardtop that I'd been searching for, from a person in Newfoundland. I also acquired the first-ever Home Hardware transport issued in 1975 in its original box. I am thrilled to own it. I found them all by driving to Home Hardware locations in small farming communities, as well as flea markets, toy shows and antique markets. I have also found some on online sites.
In addition, I have a little riding truck that once belonged to my granddaughter, Kirsten, who is now 22! It's decorated with specially made decals to look like a Home Hardware truck.
In Cheryl's opinion, we never really outgrow our love of toys. Now that I'm retired, there's more time to collect—retirement has its rewards.

You would be amazed at how many wedding parties pass through our doors. Quite honestly, up until now, we were equally amazed at how we managed before our decision to deploy our new web-based planning and collaboration software created by the fine folks at 37signals.com. For us, it is not uncommon within our salon and spa locations to have three or four wedding parties receiving services on a Saturday. This especially happens during peak wedding season.
Until now, the majority of the planning and coordination process for weddings took place over email. What a headache! To eliminate redundancy and confusion on our end and the bride's, it's our practice to coordinate all communication through one team member for our entire company. Now, picture all of the phone calls and emails flying back and forth when scheduling multiple services for several different people. When brides contact us for services, we understand that they are allowing us to be a part of the most important day in their life. That's a lot of responsibility. What worked for us five years ago, just wasn't working for us now. We knew that we needed to look at how we facilitated our work flow that allowed more organization and better collaboration between Maximum FX and our clients. That's when we found Basecamp. A web-based collaboration tool that allows us to manage projects, and collaborate with our team and clients the modern way.
Here's a sneak peek at the Project Dashboard that summarizes all of the recent activity on this bride's wedding planning.
Here you can see where the bride uploaded photos to the Basecamp project ahead of her scheduled visit. This allows her stylist to review the images to get an idea of various looks that she enjoys. With iPads available in the salon, this makes for a very powerful bridal consultation.
Basecamp allows us to contain all communication, calendars with events, files, images, to-do lists and more between Maximum FX and our client within each project that is created in the software. The software is web-based so we can grant access to our clients for specific wedding projects that we create. It's just an easier way to work. It eliminates stress, improves communication, and positions us to provide a better salon experience for our brides.
Here you can see where phone notes are stored under the wedding project created for Cynthia Woods. Both the bride and the MFX wedding coordinator can log in at any time to review notes that were made by either party.
So there you have it! Just one more innovation brought to you by Maximum FX and the guys over at 37signals.com. Stay tuned for more blog posts on how we continue to use Basecamp for internal projects, making collaboration productive and enjoyable for our team members every day. If you are getting married, or you know of a friend, family member or co-worker who's planning a wedding. Send them our way. We promise to take good care of them!

Insight from my sister (and Doc Searls)
My sister DeVon once told me, "Health care is just a high tech service industry". She is right. Unfortunately most of our pregnancy care system is a medical/industrial model that does customer service very poorly and at outrageous cost. Something needed to be done and we are doing our little bit here in Minnesota. Our maternity/newborn care improvement efforts are meant to better serve mothers, babies, and fathers. We are seeing overwhelming interest and real success as we deliver high quality midwife-directed primary maternity care within the context of a true team of nurse midwives, doulas, and physicians. Eventually this will be done for a single package price through the BirthBundleTM. I have been wondering why we are having such success. Here is one thought. Two years ago I had the privilege of meeting Doc Searls at a small conference in Minneapolis. He is an American original and full of insights. His recent book, The Intention Economy, is a great read and a fresh description of where we should be going in our our economic relationships – which always have a personal component. Doc Searls motivates me. He says that, "Markets are conversations." We would do well to remember that. Though I thought the following quote was by Doc Searls it was by Chris Locke one of Doc's co-authors of The Cluetrain Manifesto. The following, with my addition in parentheses, is what I hear loud and clear from the strong women who choose to support and give birth in a new model of care: "We are not seats or eyeballs or end users or consumers (nor "births" or "patients"); we are human beings — and our reach exceeds your grasp … Deal With It."

Singing Orthoptera in Japanese Culture
by Robert W. Pemberton, USDA-ARS
3205 College Ave. Fort Lauderdale, Florida 33314
The Japanese have a long tradition of enjoying the calls of various Orthoptera, both in the wild and as caged pets (Lafcadio Hern, 1905, Exotics and Retrospectives, Little, Brown and Co., Boston). These customs have been popular with both the Japanese Court, which probably introduced some of the customs from China, and with the common people. Visiting places, known for the abundance and high quality of their singing insects, was one of the seasonal pleasures, such as cherry blossom and autumn leaf viewing. Although many of these customs have been lost or simplified with Japan's modernization, there remains a fondness for the "cries" of certain species of crickets (Gryllidae) and long-horned grasshoppers (Tettigonidae). The following illustrations and notes show various aspects of Japan's cricket culture.
"The cricket cage peddlar", Kiyonaga, ca. late 1700s, (courtesy of The Art Institute of Chicago). Cricket sellers were members of an organized guild recognized by the checkerboard motif used on the cloth of their stands and kimonos. These mobile merchants sold diverse and beautifully crafted cages, including ones that resembled fans, boats and country cottages, to house the singing insects. The singing insects of commerce were both reared and collected from the wild.
Cricket cage made of twigs, wire and the sheath of a bamboo shoot, ca. 1950 (courtesy of Kyushu-Tokai Univ.). This wire mesh type of cage was used for smaller crickets. The finely crafted cages of the past are now rarely made; most modern cages are clear plastic terrariums with ventilated tops. These terrariums are sold to keep and rear a few species of singing Orthoptera (mainly the bell insect, Homoeogryllus japonicus de Haan), which are also sold along with specially packaged bell insect food and soil in pet shops.
A book "How to raise singing insects" written in 1983 by Kimio ONO and Hideaki OGASAWARA (New Science Co., Tokyo). This book, which shows the bell insect (suzumushi) on its cover, contains natural history, rearing information and even poetry on five of the most favored cricket species and one katydid, and briefer sections on fourteen other crickets and katydids. Raising singing insects is a popular past-time. Singing crickets are given as gifts to customers by some produce markets and to the friends of some cricket hobbyists.
Program for Tama Zoo's annual autumn show on singing Orthoptera. This very popular show started in 1958 and takes place in Tama Zoo's Insectarium located in the Tokyo suburbs. At the 1993 show, forty three singing cricket and long-horned grasshopper species could be seen and heard by visitors. Each year, the Insectarium receives several thousand telephone calls from people wanting advice on how to raise singing insects.
Electronic katydid in a paper covered plastic box cage, 1992, $9 US. The plastic katydid and its electronic chip mimic a popular long-horned grasshopper (kirigirisu, Gampsocleis buergeri de Haan) in both appearance and sound. This cage also features flashing fireflies. Electronic bell insects, including one with a very accurate chip that was sold in a Tokyo Mitsukoshi Department store for $200 US in 1990, are also available. Recordings of singing Orthoptera are sold in record stores, and can be heard in subway stations and other public places.

Ok, I posted my pic so you could see how blessed I've been to look so young and be in excellent health and a nice figure. I met this great guy online 2 weeks ago. We're clicking like crazy. We're 1hr and 40 minutes apart from each other and he's coming to see me this weekend. What's the problem??? I am 64yrs old and online I said I was 54 (he's 54) and looks great also. My experience online when I say my true age I get some horrible looking people, and hardly a handful of responses. When I drop my age, I get flooded with lots and lots of guys. So it's very obvious to me that nobody wants to date a 64 year old lady but I'm the exception. I'm in this weird category. I have to tell him….but I just don't know when. Should I do it when I meet him this weekend or wait as we continue to get closer…………………..HELP I need all the help I can get.
Need answers from GUYS and GIRLS Please…Thanks

Newport News One Of Two Finalists For Sabine Double- Hull Refit Contracts
Sabine Transportation Co. of Groves, Texas has selected Newport News Shipbuilding as one of two yards in the final round of competition to retrofit double-hulled forebodies onto the the sterns of two existing ships. The ships, SS Sabine and SS Neches, currently have single hulls.
These will be the first ship conversions to comply with the double-hull rules of OPA 90. Newport News Shipbuilding has extensive experience in joining new cargo sections to existing ship sterns, having performed the process 33 times over the last few decades.
According to Ed Waryas, the shipyard's director of commercial marketing, "Newport News's financial strength and depth of engineer- ing talent allow our yard to offer the most competitive design. Our design is tailored to Sabine's requirements, and we provide an attractive price and payment schedule to suit their business plans." The retrofitting contract is expected to be awarded in 1994.

"Seeing anyone special lately?"
Yes, Grandma, their name is cabernet
Don't stress, feel blessed! Cuffing season is among you but that's no reason to feel down about your relationship status. There are many reasons why being single throughout the holiday season is 110 percent acceptable...
1) You don't have to share your holiday treats.
You do not have to face the pressure of sharing your box of Ferrero Rocher Fine Hazelnut Chocolates. They are all yours.
2) You also don't have to share your holiday drinks.
3) You get to watch "12 Dates of Christmas" as many times as you want
It's Netflix's way of saying "We've got your back, we're not going anywhere."
4) You don't have to buy a significant other some sort of lavish gift.
You just saved a bunch of money on Christmas gifts by switching to single.
5) You can take the money you save from buying a significant other a gift and buy yourself a gift.
6) Cuddling is overrated.
You know what no one ever complains about? Having the whole bed to themselves.
7) You can listen to as much or as little holiday music as you like.
No need to accommodate anyone's Christmas spirit.
8) You can sit back and enjoy the Christmas themed Tinder pick-up lines.
"Shouldn't you be sitting on top of the tree, angel?" Yikes.
9) You only have to worry about accommodating one schedule.
It's ME o'clock.
10) You have complete say over what type of holiday card you are going to send.
11) You can do more important things this holiday season.
Like lay around in your Rudolph onesie, stalking people on Instagram, and drinking eggnog.
12) Get in shape... Or don't.
It's sweater season. No one can tell anyway.

Plex Study: Innovation Fueled by Connected Manufacturing
The Industrial Internet of Things is Driving Manufacturing Innovation, Collaboration and Productivity
TROY, MICH., Oct. 26, 2016 – Plex Systems, the leader in cloud ERP for manufacturing, today announced the results of its annual survey examining the use of technology by leading manufacturers. The 2016 Plex State of Manufacturing Technology study provides real-world insight from nearly 200 manufacturing organizations that are using technology today to meet the demands of customers, drive product innovation and improve operational efficiency.
Among the key findings:
Cloud technology improves manufacturers' ability to manage changing business needs. With the cloud, manufacturers connect the plant floor with the top floor, providing everyone access to one version of real-time data. By connecting manufacturing operations to the cloud,
- 64 percent of respondents better managed fluctuating customer demands
- 55 percent achieved stronger management of their global supply chain
- 48 percent found introducing new products was easier for them to manage
- 98 percent noted that connectivity to systems, machines, suppliers and customers delivers value to their business today
Consumer technology is making plant floor connectivity easy and affordable: Plant floor mobile solutions have historically been limited to expensive, proprietary, ruggedized devices. Affordable consumer mobile products, combined with cloud connectivity, make it easy for manufacturers to connect people and systems throughout the plant. As a result,
- 64 percent of respondents are using consumer tablets on the plant floor
- 10 percent have decreased the use of laptops
- Respondents noted significant growth in their deployment of iOS devices (up 9 percent year-over-year; 70 percent total) and Android devices (up 24 percent year-over-year; 56 percent total)
About Plex
Plex is the Manufacturing Cloud, delivering industry-leading ERP and manufacturing automation to more than 500 companies across process and discrete industries. Plex pioneered Cloud solutions for the shop floor, connecting suppliers, machines, people, systems and customers with capabilities that are easy to configure, deliver continuous innovation and reduce IT costs.

My sign-up ambivalence increases with each passing social networking site, but I'm really enjoying Fictionaut so far. It's a lit site specializing in (but not limited to) short short fiction, where you can re-post your published or unpublished words and nice people (some of whom you don't even know) will read and comment. Can you beat that? Fictionaut banks on the informality of facebook to create a space that's more approachable and discussion-friendly than most (already pretty approachable) online lit mags.
Carson Baker and Jürgen Fauth started the site some time last year, though I only heard about it a month ago.
Also, there are some pretty thoughtful discussions happening, the kind where people listen to each other and assume the intelligence of fellow posters. Fictionaut just un-beta'ed itself last week, which means you don't need a secret handshake invite to join. Jump on it, babies.

Serving Burnsville, MN
Facts about Burnsville, MN
Burnsville is a city 15 miles (24 km) south of downtown Minneapolis in Dakota County in the State of Minnesota. The city lies on the south bank of the Minnesota River, upstream from its confluence with the Mississippi River. Burnsville and nearby suburbs form the southern portion of Minneapolis–Saint Paul, the fifteenth largest metropolitan area in the United States, with about 3.6 million residents. According to the 2010 census, the population is 61,481.
Burnsville has many attractions, including its regional mall, Burnsville Center. The city is also a recreational attraction with Alimagnet Dog Park, a section of Murphy-Hanrehan Park Reserve, and 310-foot (94 m) vertical ski peak Buck Hill. Minnesota River wildlife is protected by the Minnesota Valley National Wildlife Refuge.
Originally a rural Irish farming community, Burnsville became the tenth largest city in Minnesota in the 2000 Census following the construction of Interstate 35. Currently the ninth largest suburb in the metro area and a bedroom community of both Minneapolis and Saint Paul, the city was fully built by the late 2000s. Burnsville's downtown area is called Heart of the City with urban-style retail and condominiums. The Burnsville Transit Station serves as the hub and headquarters of the Minnesota Valley Transit Authority, providing regional bus service to five other suburbs.
The name Burnsville is attributed to an early Irish settler and land owner, William Byrne. His surname was recorded as "Burns" and was never corrected.
The Dakota nation ceded land in 1851 and many relocated to Chief Shakopee's village—the current Shakopee-Mdewakanton Indian Reservation in nearby Prior Lake. The first European settlers were Irish, Scottish and Norwegian farmers who came upriver from Saint Paul. One of these Irish settlers was William Byrne, who had immigrated in 1840 from County Kilkenny, Ireland to Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. In 1855, he settled at the present day junction of County Road 34 and Judicial Road near the Scott County line, just southeast of old downtown Savage. He subsequently donated land there for a church, school, and a cemetery as well as serving Town Chairman. In 1858, the Dakota County Board authorized Byrnsville Township in the north by the Minnesota River, east by Eagan and Apple Valley, south by Lakeville, and west by Scott County. There is some ambiguity of if the name actually derived from William Byrne since there were people with the surname "Burns" living in the area (a Scottish variant). The Town Clerk recorded variations between "Burns" and "Byrnes" but at the 1960s city incorporation, the "Burnsville" spelling prevailed. The school district was organized during this time as well. Burnsville originally comprised the present-day downtown of Savage (then known as Hamilton) until county border revisions by the legislature. The Irish and Scottish settlers of this time left their names on many area roads and parks and their religion in Presbyterian, Protestant, and Catholic churches.
As of the census of 2010, there were 60,306 people, 24,283 households, and 15,656 families residing in the city. The population density was 2,421.0 inhabitants per square mile (934.8/km²). There were 25,759 housing units at an average density of 1,034.1 per square mile (399.3/km²). The racial makeup of the city was 77.5% White, 10.0% African American, 0.4% Native American, 5.0% Asian, 0.1% Pacific Islander, 3.5% from other races, and 3.5% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 7.9% of the population.
There were 24,283 households of which 32.1% had children under the age of 18 living with them, 48.4% were married couples living together, 11.5% had a female householder with no husband present, 4.6% had a male householder with no wife present, and 35.5% were non-families. 27.6% of all households were made up of individuals and 8% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older. The average household size was 2.47 and the average family size was 3.03.

CFAR is a repository of HIV/AIDS reagents, established in 1989 through Medical Research Council (MRC) funding.
It is one of only two in the world – and the only one in Europe – with the primary role of providing a wide range of basic and specialised research reagents for HIV/AIDS research.
We strive to identify and acquire new state-of-the-art materials for the benefit of the HIV research community.
We also provide large single batches of unique HIV/AIDS reagents for collaborative experiments as well as a safe banking facility for valuable research materials.
The complicated but necessary rules around transporting them safely between laboratories – especially internationally – is a real challenge for scientists distributing and acquiring HIV-related materials. CFAR provides a safe and efficient service for storing and distributing reagents and is certified under the ISO9001 Quality System.
CFAR is a central hub for scientists to deposit the reagents they develop – enabling simple dissemination of the reagents to researchers worldwide – and gives them the opportunity to obtain novel reagents for their own research.
We are here to:
CFAR currently houses over 6,000 reagents including:
We have a collaborative agreement with the AIDS Research and Reference Reagent Program funded by the National Institute of Health in the USA (NIH ARRRP) to share reagents.
CFAR is a designated World Health Organisation and the United Nations Joint Programme on HIV/AIDS Virus Network (WHO-UNAIDS) collaborating centre and houses the specimen collection of field HIV isolates from the 1990s.
NIBSC and CFAR are currently coordinating the EC Framework Programme VII infrastructures project EURIPRED.
Its aim is to improve networks between existing biobanks focusing on the poverty-related diseases of tuberculosis, malaria, HIV and hepatitis B/C.
EURIPRED is working towards reinforcing knowledge across the disease areas and facilitating the development of new tools (vaccines, drugs, microbicides) to combat tuberculosis, HIV, malaria, hepatitis B and hepatitis C. CFAR's aim is to establish a repository for these diseases which both complements and mirrors that which is available for HIV.
