To make a presentation to influence others to support, purchase, or agree to something. Wanda will be making a pitch for her new product idea at the meeting today. I tried to make a pitch for you to join the band, but the others guys aren't sure about it.
make a pitch for
Say or do something in support of someone or something, as in That announcer really made a pitch for Sunday's concert, or Her agent's been making a pitch for her books all over town. This expression originally alluded to an inflated sales talk that was "pitched" (in the sense of "thrown") at the listener. [Slang; late 1800s]

|= A Mind Boggling Five Dollar Online Psychic Reading =
|Talk about a bargain!
|Not all that long ago, I got a five dollar psychic reading that blew my mind, vanquished my depression and changed how I went through my day to day life in dramatic fashion.
|Even though I have gone out of my way to study the paranormal for multiple decades now, I have never been one of those people who are always seeking psychic counsel, jumping from one person to another who claims to be sensitive to the subtle energies.
|I have had three gifted psychics in my life, but only one of them was intentional. I wasn't even looking to get a psychic reading. I was wishing to develop my own intuitive abilities, so I signed up for a psychic development class, that was taught, fittingly enough, by a person whom I would go on to have first hand evidence of her psychic abilities.
|However she isn't the psychic I'm referring to in this post. Neither are the other two, one of whom was a co-worker of mine, at my brother's limousine company in the '90s. The third one, that I talk about in [[ http://devtome.com/doku.php?id=how_to_manifest_coincidences_to_illuminate_enrich_and_change_your_life | this post]], actually was a customer of my brother's limo company, "coincidentally" enough.
|Even though there was a time that I had the opportunity to ask for readings and psychic counsel virtually daily, in the case of the second and third psychically gifted people mentioned above, I almost never asked them, because I respected them and their gifts.
|When you are lucky enough to be in the midst of people with uncanny paranormal acumen, it's not something you should take lightly. It's not a parlor game. You also need to be respectful and never take advantage of your relationship with such special individuals.
|The one I wrote about (linked above) would physically suffer if she tuned in to others for too long. She had a rich friend who loved to throw parties. Her friend would always invite her and show her off. My psychic friend would, invariably, inspire reactions of delight, shock, dismay, amazement, and generally blow the mind of every person at the party, but by the time she got home, she would be thoroughly drained of energy.
|It was not uncommon for her to be sick for days after those parties. I would get so mad at her friend for using her like that.
|I lost touch with her, sadly, and years later found out she had died. I don't know how, but I wouldn't be surprised if it stemmed from a health condition brought on by giving of herself to people either seeking help, or just to be entertained.
|Anyway, I had not had a psychic reading for well over a decade, and I was really depressed and needed someone to turn to. I had a writing partner that had died a long time before, and my life went off course, I felt, as a direct result.
|We wrote so well together, and had such plans and dreams. He was outgoing, which I just knew was going to make it easier for me to do all the meeting and greeting that is needed to help become a success.
|I started drinking and other drugging heavily and didn't turn back. I squandered the opportunity I had made after hustling to become a sit com writer. I missed my friend tremendously and felt that I didn't have a chance without him.
|Interestingly, he showed up quite a bit in the most realistic dreams I've ever had. Each time, it was the same. He had not died after all; it just seemed like he had, but he was, indeed, alive and well.
|Each time, he would scold me for not remembering that he was alive. After all of the previous visitations he had made, he would be dumbfounded that I kept forgetting, and would always be so surprised every time he showed up.
|When he wasn't showing up in my dreams, I would fairly regularly speak to him. Usually it was to complain. I'd say, "Why... Why... Why did you have to go and die on me? It would have been so great. We'd of been successful and had so much fun."
|So, now cut to about two years ago, decades after his death. It seems like as the years went by, I increasingly had that conversation with him. At this point, it was more intense and more regular and more dramatic than it had ever been.
|Most of the time, in the past, I would not actually vocalize the words, but now I was not only saying them out loud, I was saying them loudly, multiple times, on a daily basis. I was lost. I needed help.
|So I did what anyone else would do. I went to a website called, Fiverr and booked a five dollar psychic reading.
|What? Not everyone would do that?
|I stand corrected, but yeah, that's what I did.
|I zoned in on a vendor name Delia who offered a past life reading. I had read so many books on past lives that I knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that reincarnation is for real. While there are some positive aspects to it, I have to say, I would much prefer it if those feeble minded, childish, wish fulfillment atheists((This reference is merely pay back for all the atheists who have called me such names. It's an inside joke... Well, sort of.)) were right, and the end of life meant the end of existence, hence the end of problems. Unfortunately, I've seen way too much evidence against that to be able to believe it, but that's a subject for [[ http://devtome.com/doku.php?id=the_incredibly_compelling_case_for_reincarnation | another conversation]].
|Delia's Fiverr page said to provide a name, place of birth, date of birth and place I live now. I know what you may be thinking. That is so she could do research to get information about her customers.
|No doubt, a lot of that goes on in the psychic reading business. The level of frauds to real deals might be ten thousand to one. I have no idea, but I'm just saying, I get it. I wasn't really expecting anything, but for five bucks, I didn't have much to lose.
|A few days later, I got the email saying that she had completed the reading. I logged into the website and downloaded the text file. For the next several minutes as I read what Delia had for me, I had tears streaming down my cheeks, goose pimples on my arms, shivers around my shoulders and a profound sense of understanding.
|There are two things to keep in mind here: Delia's Fiverr page had said she had the ability to see past lives, and she could even pull up a particular past life which has a lesson for you in this life that you may still be dealing with. Also, the only data I gave her was my name, birth date and place, and current place of residence.
|In my reading, she told told the story of a man (me), whose father was rich. He had an affair with my mother and died shortly after my birth. I grew up poor, realizing that my father was this well know rich man who had a rich family. I felt like I shouldn't be poor, since I was his son.
|I went to his family to ask to be taken in, but they wanted nothing to do with me. I felt cheated out of my birthright. I went through life lamenting that he had died and left me poor when it didn't have to be that way. If only he had lived, my life would be completely different. I was so close to happiness and fulfillment, and yet so far away.
|Delia told me that in some way, to some degree, I'm repeating the pattern. She said she didn't know if it had specifically to do with feeling cheated by the death of someone, but that I was stuck on something that had happened a long time ago.
|She said, "But then you wake up one day and it's 30 years later and nothing has changed in your life as a result of being fixated on this one event that didn't go the way you wanted."
|It was indeed 33 years later, and I sure the hell was fixated.
|From the point of reading that, to this day, probably two years later, I have never once asked my former writing partner why he had to die on me and ruin our plans. I still think of him, virtually daily, but it's always in a spirit of gratitude.
|That five dollar reading, ended my depression and changed my day to day outlook on life.
|As Delia told me, as long as I was stuck in, "If only this or that had not happened..." I would never be able to create what I want to happen. Yet, by getting rid of that attitude, I make space for creating my desires.
|I was pleasantly amazed at how easy it was to let go of that attitude. It was instantaneous, and complete.
|I've definitely made progress since that time in terms of goals, but the single greatest and immediate benefit I got from Delia's reading is no longer being stuck; no longer being depressed and no longer feeling like a victim of something outside of my control.

When Operating Boom Lifts no matter how much experience you have with Cherry Pickers or Aerial Work Platforms (AWP) in general, it is important to take every safety precaution possible. Operating machinery can always be dangerous, but when you are operating at extreme eights you have to be extra cautious.
Aerial Lifts Are:
Aerial lifts can be vehicle-mounted, boom lifts or aerial platforms, such as cherry pickers or bucket trucks, used to access utility lines and other high above ground work areas. The major causes of fatalities are falls, electrocutions, and collapses or tip overs. Employers must take measures to ensure the safe use of aerial lifts by their workers if they are required to use this equipment in the course of their employment.
- Make sure that employees who operate Boom Lifts are properly trained in the safe use of the equipment.
- Maintain and operate elevating work platforms according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- Never override the hydraulic, mechanical, or electrical safety devices.
- Never move the Boom Lift with workers in an elevated platform unless this is permitted by the manufacturer.
- Do not allow workers to position themselves between overhead hazards, such as joists and beams, and the rails of the basket. Movement of the lift could crush the worker(s).
- Maintain a minimum distance of at least 10 feet away from the nearest energized overhead lines.
- Always treat power lines, wires and other conductors as energized, even if they are down or appear to be insulated.
- Use a body harness or restraining belt with a lanyard attached to the boom or basket to prevent the worker(s) from being ejected or pulled from the basket.
- Set the brakes and use wheel chocks when on an incline.
- Use outriggers, if provided.
- Do not exceed the load limits of the equipment. Allow for the combined weight of the worker, tools and materials.
These are some of the important tips to remember when you are using Boom Lifts. Please check out one of our many Boom Lift classes to learn more about how to operate, maintain, and practice safe Boom Lift operation.

Money laundering is typically considered a "white collar crime" and involves orchestrating transactions to hide the source of illegally obtained funds. Concealing or disguising the source of funds derived from unlawful activities in order to avoid seizure, forfeiture, taxation or detection is illegal in the state of Washington and is punished harshly. You could spend many years in prison if convicted, face steep fines and have a permanent criminal record. Most judges in Washington hand down the longest possible prison sentence for money laundering, which could be anywhere from 10-20 years in state prison, depending on how much money was involved in the laundering.
Money laundering is a serious offense and if you are being charged with money laundering, it is not something you should take lightly. You need a seasoned criminal defense lawyer with experience defending money laundering cases to fight for your rights in court. Greene & Lloyd, PLLC are seasoned attorneys who can help you present a solid defense that will stand up to the prosecution's tactics.

Just a reference for some of the most common git commands out there! Explanation of each on top, and below is the command for Git bash. Setting up with remote GitHub:
See existing remote branches:
Adding from Git Repository (URL found on bottom right menu of GitHub), this one is "origin" for me, but you can name it other things if you have a specific name for a certain connection:
Removing from local (replace "origin" with whichever branch you want to remove):
Version Control in a Team Setting:
Committing your work locally and in quotation marks, add a descriptive message of the changes made. Make sure it RUNS before doing this!
Push your local changes up to Git for all to see. DOUBLE make sure it RUNS. Master here if you do not have other branches. If you do, then this will change depending on what and how much you wish to push. Origin here is the one I am working with, like I mentioned, this could change depending on what you are working with at the time.
Pull down changes from others. Same deal with the master branch and origin as mentioned above.

To illustrate how my replies on other blogs have evolved, let's take a look at a few examples. After playing it too safe or trying too hard, I think I've found a new confidence in my own judgments.

- Every Page is Page One: The Death of Hierarchy (29 Sep 2014)
Jay Manaloto (30 Sep 2014)
Hi Mark, another amazing article!
Another aspect that might be worth mentioning is that beyond social curation, the expectation of social interaction too is killing the traditional content hierarchy. When we see this interaction everywhere from WordPress blog comments to Wikipedia article "Talk tab" discussions to Amazon product reviews, it's natural to expect it elsewhere.
Sadly, even if a topic hierarchy provides commenting functionality, I rarely see folks using it, at least not to the frequency of tweets or likes. I'm not sure if this inactivity is related to the sense of indifferent "static" content, or if it's the comparative lack of "cohesion" among hierarchical topics (i.e. it's easier to reply to a self-contained article than to fragmented topics with low cohesion), or if it's a combination of both, but something is definitely missing.
In fact, something else that might be overlooked is that the social comments, discussions, and reviews themselves can add a content "richness" and fill in the gaps or touch related ideas that weren't necessarily contained in the original topic or article. Just as an Amazon product page with a dozen different reviews and perspectives can yield much more insight than the same page with none.
Mark Baker (02 Oct 2014)
Thanks for the comment, Jay. You raise an interesting point. Certainly the social aspect of a site like StackOverflow is vital to its success, and to its organization. Reader response is a vital part of the way the Web is filtered. Google does it implicitly. StackOverflow does it explicitly. Readers clearly look for it and appreciate it.
One of the points I often make about how the Web has changed our informations seeking habits is how it has changed our attitude to authority. It used to be you the way you sought information was to first find and authority, then ask your question. Now the approach is first ask your question, then consider the authority of the answer. And authority here is socially mediated. You trust the guy on StackOverflow with the high reputation more than the company' official word on the subject.
I would love to know how much social interaction with content corresponds to how EPPO it is vs how hierarchical it is. I suspect that EPPO content is more commentable, because it is complete and sets a context. It is clear what you are commenting on. I would love to have a chance to examine some examples to see if that is true in practice.
I definitely agree that comments can add richness and fill in gaps in content. I don't have to look any further than this blog — indeed, than this topic — to see evidence of that. And I think it changes how we write too. We don't have to write "the final word" on a subject. We just have to start a discussion.
Hierarchy, of course, is about having the final word on the organization of content (and thereby the final world on its significance). A post-hierarchical world says that the author does not get the final word on the organization or the significance of the content.
Jay Manaloto (11 Sep 2014)
Thanks for sharing, Helen. Yours is one of the few good metaphors I've come across. Mark Baker applies a similarly strong metaphor comparing content strategy to military strategy, tactics, and logistics. While I still prefer the traditional definitions of the high-level strategy, the lower-level tactics that execute the strategy, and the logistics that support the tactics, Mark adds an appealing "fractal" twist that each role in the ladder has its own relative view of what their own content strategy, tactics, and logistics are. Personally, I sometimes tend to think that as long as you know what your goals are, all of these buzzwords are just glorified plans or lists. I mean, when I drive to the local supermarket with my weekly grocery list, should I call this my "agile grocery strategy"? :)
Helen (11 Sep 2014)
Agility is a buzzword I only employ in one situation: When describing my ability to adjust my training information when Facebook or other social networking sites adjust their platform. And I used to work for a military association–still do voiceover work for them, actually–and MAN when you get a lot of those buzzwords (or agency names) in a row, it's a mouthful! Thanks for stopping by, Jay!
Jay Manaloto (02 Sep 2014)
Hi Mark! Let me start off by saying that I thoroughly enjoyed your MadCap-hosted webinar on EPPO last week. It validated many of my own observations and ruminations in my own "killing XML" posts.
Having said that, I'm a bit confused by this post. My most immediate question is "Reuse what?" After all, there's a big difference between reusing low-level *text* and reusing high-level *ideas*. Reusing text in a snippet or conref might be a great nuts-and-bolts tactic. Meanwhile, reusing ideas or expressions in videos, blogs, and tweets might be a great social-media strategy. Both levels can be addressed independently and concurrently. So I'm confused about which level you're addressing.
For example, let me replace "reuse" with "redesign" — "Redesign is a good tactic but a poor strategy." Well, redesign what? Redesign low-level names and phrases? Redesign high-level expressions and stories? That's all. I hope this makes sense. Nevertheless, I like how your ideas encourage me to think or rethink my own. Thanks for sharing!
Mark Baker (02 Sep 2014)
Thanks for the comment, Jay.
Agreed, reuse is a slippery word, and it is easy for people to talk past each other based on only slightly different ideas of what reuse means or what is being reused.

Jay Manaloto (19 Aug 2014)
Hi Tom, another thought-provoking post! One bullet that caught my eye was the frustration that: "You can't easily re-use content for different audiences… Imagine having to update the same paragraph on six different WordPress sites." To make the leap from DITA to WordPress, this issue would probably be one of the bigger obstacles, if not the biggest, to overcome. But after a bit of digging, I stumbled across the shortcode-friendly "Reusable Text Blocks" plugin (wordpress.org/plugins/reusable-text-blocks/). If you've already tried this across your multisite, I'm wondering how it fell short or failed. If not yet, then you might be able to combine this plugin with the "WordPress Conditional Content" plugin (wordpress.org/plugins/wp-conditional-content/) to refine the reusable content even further. In any case, I'd like to hear your thoughts, not so much on their benefits, but particularly on their limitations. Thanks!
Tom Johnson (19 Aug 2014)
Jay, thanks for the tip. I hadn't see the Reusable Content plugin, but I'm familiar with shortcodes, and they work pretty similarly. I guess the challenge here is deciding whether to commit fully to WordPress. If you pepper your content with various shortcode tags, what happens if you want to output to PDF or push your content into some other format? You'd have the HTML, for sure, and could get it out that way. I'm just wary of inserting too many tags into content that are proprietary to a specific platform.
Then again, if you aren't thinking of swapping out platforms, I'm not really sure what the benefits of authoring externally are? Overall, I'm just a little too timid to dive whole hog into WP for content authoring, but certainly the ability to update on the fly without republishing all the content is a much more practical workflow. I'm not quite at that point yet.
Jay Manaloto (18 Aug 2014)
Thanks Tom, thought-provoking! By putting your posts together, I'm getting the overall message that while DITA represents one of the more widespread forms of source "currency", DITA simultaneously fosters a healthy range of tool "diversity", whether advocating or avoiding it. "And we need more people to think differently." Coincidentally, I stumbled across your posts at a time when I blogged about related signs on a wider and darker scale. For example, with the explosion of socio-mobile technology, it's not unthinkable that the universal mobile-app experience might eclipse and eventually smother the "old school" web-browser experience where traditional topic-based content thrives. "Would it be poetic if IBM, which introduced DITA-XML authoring in 2001, helped to kill it by 2021?" I guess we'll just have to wait… or innovate.
Jay Manaloto (18 Aug 2014)
Hi Linda, although my experience focuses on testing the XHTML and PDF content after the DITA source has been translated, transformed, and returned, sometimes as many as 14 languages per release, I'm not aware of any tool-specific gotchas in Oxygen XML. Unless your Oxygen XML tool is heavily configured or customized to change the source in some unique way, the DITA source should be independent of the preferred DITA tool. So your translation process should be the same whether you're using Oxygen XML Author or Arbortext Editor or other DITA-XML tool. Just as your ZIP-packaging process should be the same whether you're using WinZip, WinRAR, 7-Zip, or other standard ZIP tool. But George Bina would know for sure. :)
jaymanalotoibm (17 Aug 2014)
Hi Maamar, just in case others might have the same question, can you clarify your statement that "The set of offerings runs on IBM Bluemix"? As I understand it, the BlueMix offering runs on the SoftLayer IaaS as a PaaS sandbox for developers to quickly assemble and deploy their application ideas. As a beta, Service Engage might've temporarily run on BlueMix as another emerging idea. But now that Service Engage is a public SaaS portal, this might no longer be true. Instead, it might be more accurate to say that "its SaaS offerings run on IBM SoftLayer". In other words, beyond the portal, its SaaS offerings are not necessarily built with BlueMix PaaS tools, if at all. However, you can certainly use the APM SaaS offering to monitor your own BlueMix-built apps! Finally, although the current Service Engage FAQs discuss SoftLayer IaaS, I haven't found anything yet about BlueMix PaaS. If I misinterpreted something, feel free to let me know. Thanks for sharing your thoughts! :)

Hi Jennifer! This is going to sound funny. I'm not sure if you remember my tweet about "speeding ahead" to MadCap Flare 10. But when I attended my first local STC chapter meeting last September, I was exposed to MadCap Flare for the first time too. Well, guess who gave that online presentation? Daniel Ferguson! It's a small world. One of our STC members was a former colleague of Daniel, so she invited him to introduce Flare to our small Las Vegas group. And I was truly impressed by Flare. The funny part is that many months later, not only was I inspired to use a Japanese street racing metaphor, but Daniel used a Formula 1 racing metaphor too. As a newer Flare "racer", I wasn't crazy after all. Actually, it was reassuring. I'm not sure if it's a coincidence, but Flare seems to stir a lot of racing emotions. :) ~Jay

I guess I can understand targeting the less-technical mobile users — since typical mobile apps don't show URLs — but there are still many technical folks who prefer to see or manipulate standard URLs on full websites too. It might not be wise to sacrifice one demographic for another. I think we all remember what happened with Windows 8.1.

This exceptional, award-winning documentary investigates the story behind a volume of Mormon scripture called The Book of Abraham. In the mid 1800s, a traveling antiquities dealer sold Joseph Smith a set of Egyptian papyri, from which he translated "The Book of Abraham" found in the Pearl of Great Price, one of four books Mormons believe are inspired. The original paypri were then lost...but remarkably have since been found! Modern Egyptologists can now read the papyri. Was it "The Book of Abraham" as Joseph Smith claimed, or something else? The Lost Book of Abraham visits prominent Egyptologists and other scholars, both Mormon and non-Mormon, to learn the truth behind Joseph Smith's claim. This DVD contains both English and Spanish versions, is 55 minutes long, and is highly recommended by ABR. It is very well done and a great resource to loan out to Mormon friends.
"If you want to learn more about Mormonism, this is a great documentary. Students in my world religions and cults classes always say how much they enjoy watching it. It is excellent!"
–Charlie Campbell, Director of ABR

This month sees the 70th anniversary of the Battle of Kursk, so I have been reading a little, and thought I'd share some info distilled from the internet:
Order of Battle Kursk: Part 1 The German Forces
The Protagonists
Order of Battle Kursk: Part 1 The German Forces
The Protagonists
The Germans' goal during Citadel was to pinch off a large salient in the Eastern Front that extended 70 miles toward the west.
Field Marshal Günther von Kluge's Army Group Center would attack from the north flank of the bulge, with Colonel General Walther Model's Ninth Army leading the effort, General Hans Zorn's XLVI Panzer Corps on the right flank and Maj. Gen. Josef Harpe's XLI Panzer Corps on the left.
General Joachim Lemelsen's XLVII Panzer Corps planned to drive toward Kursk and meet up with Field Marshal Erich von Manstein's Army Group South, Col. Gen. Hermann Hoth's Fourth Panzer Army and the Kempf Army, commanded by General Werner Kempf.
Opposing the German forces were the Soviet Central Front, led by General Konstantin K. Rokossovsky, and the Voronezh Front, led by General Nikolai F. Vatutin.
The Central Front, with the right wing strengthened by Lt. Gen. Nikolai P. Pukhov's Thirteenth Army and Lt. Gen. I.V. Galinin's Seventeenth Army, was to defend the northern sector.
To the south, the Voronezh Front faced the German Army Group South with three armies and two in reserve. The Sixth Guards Army, led by Lt. Gen. Mikhail N. Chistyakov, and the Seventh Guards Army, led by Lt. Gen. M. S. Shumilov, held the center and left wing.
East of Kursk, Col. Gen. Ivan S. Konev's Steppe Military District (renamed Steppe Front on July 10, 1943) was to hold German breakthroughs, then mount the counteroffensive.
"ß " is the German letter for the double "s "sound : "ss"; not pronounced as a "B"
I.e. It was General Walter Weiß (Weiss: (White); not Weib (which is Wife)

Helene Niedhart created headlines in the 1980s when, because no Swiss airline would employ her as a pilot, she founded her own airline. As Switzerland celebrates 100 years of scheduled flight, Niedhart looks back over her high-flying career.
"Not possible, never," Niedhart says and laughs. She's looking up at old aircraft and helicopters hanging on wires in the Swiss Museum of Transport in Lucerne, where a new exhibition, "Switzerland in the air!external link", is marking various aviation anniversaries throughout 2018.
Switzerland in the air!
The Swiss Museum of Transport is devoting 2018 and 2019 to aviation and space travel. A number of anniversaries are looming, including 50 years of Aerosuisse, 100 years of scheduled flight in Switzerland, and the 50th anniversary of the first manned lunar landing.
The new exhibition "Switzerland in the air!" explores the fascination of flight in the reorganised Aviation Hall, which covers every aspect of flying, including passenger and cargo air transport activities, light aviation, air sports, air rescue services and the vocational opportunities related to aeronautics and aviation.end of infobox
Hardly any women worked in Swiss cockpits in the 1980s, so the trained pilot founded her own airline. "My passion for flying grew every day," she says.
Nothing could put her off the idea of flying. She bought a Cessna C421 and became the pilot of her own airline. Three years later she owned her first jet; six years later her first medium-distance plane. Today she employs 70 people, runs seven business jets and the company has an annual turnover of CHF55 million ($57 million).
Business plan
In 1987, Niedhart founded Cat Aviationexternal link. She is the first and only female owner of an airline in Switzerland. She is the CEO, president and majority shareholder of the Zurich-based company, which specialises in charter flights.
She didn't want to become a businesswoman, "but I'm good at counting", she said to herself. Originally she qualified as a banker. When she wanted to found her airline, she spent days on her business plan. "And it never worked out," she said. She played around with it – and afterwards worked all the harder to successfully implement the plan.
For 15 years she didn't pay herself a salary. She was able to do all the work herself – "apart from maintaining the aircraft," she says.
She has now been in the highly competitive airline market – "a really tough business" – for 30 years and says the potential of the branch is underestimated.
"The economic output in Switzerland amounts to more than CHF15 billion a year and involves 34,000 jobs," she says.
Niedhart is vice-president of the Swiss Business Aviation Associationexternal link and represents the branch – she also sits on the board of the European Business Aviation Associationexternal link and lobbies in Brussels on behalf of Swiss interests.
Man's world
Niedhart has notched up more than 11,000 hours in the air. She has often heard the surprised question "Where's the pilot?" – in all possible languages of course.
Aviation remains a male domain and airplanes are firmly in men's hands. As a child, she got to know Zurich airport only thanks to her brothers, whom she accompanied.
It was her younger brother who motivated her to train as a pilot after she caught the flying bug in the Grand Canyon. Niedhart continues to take off today – thanks to her creative powers and energy.

A smaller replica of sculptor Cyrus Dallin's The Appeal to the Great Spirit was placed in Tulsa's Central High School in 1917.
Take note, students, for legend has it that if you rub the horse's muzzle, it will bring you good luck - particularly before taking an exam.
The original 1907 equestrian statue by Dallin is on display at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. It depicts an American Indian on horseback, face tilted skyward and arms outstretched.
In 1985, Central High School dedicated a 10-foot-tall replica of Appeal to the Great Spirit to the City of Tulsa. The statue stands on the corner of Woodward Park at 21st Street and Peoria Avenue.

Oakland City Hall's Black History Film Series continues tonight with The Interrupters, a 2011 documentary about a few brave individuals' hardcore efforts to curb inner city violence. Though it was shot in Chicago, the trailer shows a landscape that could have just as easily been filmed in East Oakland or Hunters Point.
D'Wayne Wiggins from seminal Oakland-bred band Tony! Toni! Toné! has just been confirmed to provide music before this evening's film. Afterward, event organizer Desley Brooks leads a Q+A panel discussion with Eric Butler from Oakland's Restorative Justice for Oakland Youth.
One interruption that isn't scheduled onsite for this evening is Occupy Oakland, though there is a March Against Police Brutality slated for tomorrow night in Frank Ogawa Plaza.
The locally-produced Fishbone documentary Everyday Sunshine screens next Friday (Feb. 17); read our Q+A with creator Chris Metzler before you go to learn about what the Bay Area means to the legendary genre-busting band.
Mario Van Peebles' blues feature Redemption Road shows on Feb. 24, and the series concludes with White Scripts, Black Supermen, a documentary formerly titled Shaft vs. Sidney Poitier, on March 2.
All programs run from 6-10 p.m., include Q+A panels after each film, are gloriously free, and are located at Oakland City Hall's third floor council chambers.

As we approach summer 2012, organizations are beginning to report on this year's green trends for multifamily and commercial properties. Staying on top of green industry trends can help your property to conserve energy, lower operating costs, and appeal to new residents. Is your organization up to date?
In January, the Earth Advantage Institute reported seeing a large spike in green multifamily building certifications over the course of 2011, especially in Northwestern and Midwestern states. The first multifamily apartments were given LEED Platinum certification in 2011 and certifications such as LEED and EnergyStar have already been on the rise in 2012. In fact, a recent University of Notre Dame study proved that LEED certified buildings actually had a measurable increase in business compared to those without any type of green certification.
The Earth Advantage Institute has also noted energy education is an industry-wide trend for 2012, especially in terms of commercial tenants. The institute explains that the adoption of commercial building energy reporting in major cities such as New York, San Francisco, and Seattle, is prompting property owners/operators to educate tenants on energy conservation. It is also extremely important that multifamily residents are educated on any energy efficient upgrades made to their properties.
Offering a less car-dependent lifestyle is another trend for both multifamily and commercial properties in 2012. "Walk scores" from walkscore.com are now included in most multifamily marketing material and mixed-use commercial and multifamily spaces have risen in popularity for their convenience. Many communities have situated themselves on public transportation lines and even offer shuttle services to town centers or amenities on the property.

Using the automatic update function
AVM Content
Version 6.20 of FRITZ!OS has the first automatic update feature. With this you will never miss another update to the FRITZ!Box operating system and can use new functions right away. Under "Update" in the "System" menu on the FRITZ!Box user interface, three options for regular updating are offered on the "Auto-Update" tab.
Automatically install the new version
The most convenient option is the setting to be notified about every new version of FRITZ!OS and have it downloaded and installed automatically. The FRITZ!Box selects a suitable time for installation, generally at night, and installs the software automatically. Internet and telephone connections are interrupted briefly – after restarting, the FRITZ!Box works with the new operating system.
Install necessary updates automatically
This setting applies only to the software AVM designates as necessary, for example, security updates. As in the first option, you are informed that new software is available and the FRITZ!Box downloads the files automatically. Here, too, a suitable time is selected so that the installation will not restrict your use.
Notify about new FRITZ!OS versions
If you select this option, you will be merely informed that an update is available. This notification will appear on the start page of the user interface, or you can set it up as a push mail service. Keep in mind that the FRITZ!Box will continue working with the old software until you perform a manual update. For this reason AVM strongly recommends enabling at least the option for performing necessary updates automatically.

Third Generation
9. ROBERT WALTERS4,8,9,10,21,22,23,24,25 was born about 1750 in Halifax County, Virginia.1 He died on 28 February 1834 at the age of 84 in Pittsylvania County, Virginia.1
[I believe there to be some serious problems with the children's birth years in many of the databases soon. They span too long a period for all if them to have been children of the same wife. Then again there may be some very bad estimates in the online information. They are arranged here somewhat based on their approximate ages at the time of their marriages, taken into consideration males were usually at least 21, females often 18 or 19.]
From Clement's book: Robert Walters was a Justice of the Peace of Pittsylvania Co in 1797. His cousin of the same name had by this time moved to Franklin Co GA.
Pittsylvania Co VA DB 4
Pittsylvania Co VA DB 5
Pittsylvania DB 5, p.335 10 Nov 1779. James Macbee & his wife to William Macbee for 80£. 100 acres, Pittsylvania Co on the branches of Mountain Crk, adj sd William Macbee's land, bounded by Jeremiah Walker. Signed: James Mcbee Wit: Joshua Stone, Robert Walters, George Morgan. Rec. 16 Nov 1779.
Pittsylvania Co VA DB 6
Pittsylvania Co Land Tax Lists, 1782. Robert Walters [son of Thomas] listed with 200 acres.
In a 1787 tax listing, Joseph Smith is listed under Robert Walters who was charged with his tax - he was apparently hired out to Robert at that time. In 1795, Ezra Walters would sign bond for Joseph Smith when he married; and in 1832, Capt John Walters would testify to Joseph Smith's service in the Revolution.

1820 Census. Pittsylvania Co VA. Robert Walters, Senr. 1m and 1f over age 45 - no doubt Robert & Seletha. They must have a grown and married child living them because there is also a man and a woman age 26-45 and a boy under age 10 in the household.
1830 Census. Pittsylvania Co VA. Robt Walters Senr. One male age 70-80. No females in household; apparently wife deceased.
ROBERT WALTERS and SELETHA MCBEE were married about 1770 in Pittsylvania County, Virginia. SELETHA MCBEE4, daughter of WILLIAM MCBEE and ABIGAIL ?HUBBARD, was born on 10 October 1751 in Halifax County, Virginia. She died before 1830 at the age of 79 in Pittsylvania County, Virginia.24
[Have also seen her name as Selethia and Leithia and "Letty"; surname as Magby.]
Although Seletha appears as a daughter in every family tree - I have not found the absolute proof that she belongs here. She certainly did not leave Virginia and go to Tennessee, but then she was already married. Her age, and ages of her children, would indicate she couldn't have been the daughter of any of William McBee "Jr"'s brothers - she was older. Unfortunately no marriage record has been found for Seletha and Robert Walters - but then they haven't been found for several of her siblings. The source of her exact birthdate as often found, can also not be certified by any known document, but again, it must be close, considering ages of her children. And even if William McBee "Jr" was her father, that would not assure that Abigail was her mother. The given name Seletha, or forms thereof, does get handed down in this line of the family - I have not found the name Abigail used again in Seletha's line, but then I don't have the names of many of the grandchildren.
It is possible that the birth of Seletha and a death as Feb of 1834 came from the writings of Earl Quintrell, said to be at the Tennessee Archives. His wife was a McBee descendant. Seletha did not appear to be in the 1830 census with her husband.
ROBERT WALTERS and SELETHA MCBEE had the following children:

Unscripted is a Sellout!
Opening weekend was a hit! We sold out two shows, created beautiful plays, and entertained a generous audience. Best of all, we get to do it all again this weekend!
BIG players will create a new two-act play each night of Unscripted. Using audience suggestions and props, our performers generate characters, scenes, and storylines to form a unique theatrical experience. A director, a sound and lighting crew, and visible stage hands also contribute to the performance, building an unrepeatable play every night of Unscripted's run.
Some of the plays are funny. Some are dark. All of them are a one-night-only engagement.
Just to prove how spontaneous Unscripted is, we encourage audience members to bring unusual objects for use as props.
We don't know exactly what's going to happen, and neither do you. That's the fun part.
Performances are at 8pm every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday from April 14th through April 30th, with a special Sunday matinee at 3pm on April 24th. Tickets are $20 for Fri/Sat/Sun shows, $15 for Thursday shows. Parking is available on Howard, Huntingdon, 26th, and other nearby streets around the theater.

MEET THE CAST! A special series to highlight this year's UNSCRIPTED Cast and Crew
Veteran Performer/Director
Good Guy Dave
This is Dave LaSalle's fith season of Unscripted, and he is thrilled to be back. Dave is a regular performer in BIG's main-stage troupe Training for Prom and project troupe Same Team, proud faculty member of BIG University, and a trainer for BIG's corporate and nonprofit training division. Recent stage credits include the title in role in Cohesion Theater's Coriolanus, Hank/Clem in Iron Crow Theater's The Revelations of Bobby Pritchard, and Peter in Zoo Theater's Zoo Story. This run is dedicated with love and gratitude to his fiancée the beautiful and talented Kelly Lloyd.
Unscripted Rookie: Laura Davis
She's no stage rookie!
Laura Davis is a Colorado native who recently moved to Baltimore after 10 lost years in LA where she performed improv at IO West and Second City Hollywood. She discovered her home in Baltimore when she found BIG and her team Lekker. She is an occupational therapist by day, so she never stops improvising. This is her first Unscripted, and the commitment of this cast to creating something authentic and meaningful just for its own sake has been wonderful to experience.

Rebecca Minkoff's 2014 resort includes references to the early Eighties and California. It seems to be a strange pairing that is until you take a closer look. Tiger striped jumpers, slashed trousers, calf-hair coats (which I dislike), safety pins on shoulders and classic shapes that fit the form exceptionally.
I won't write too much here because it's easier to take it all in and make your own judgements on this collection.
If I was given the option of choosing between the top and the lower panels above. I much prefer the femininity of the pieces just above here. The long flowing dresses, the 3/4 sleeved coats and PVC handbags with pops of colours are more my personal style, than say the slashed trousers, leathers and peplums.
What do you lovelies think? is there any look that's caught your eye?

The Round the Island Race, which takes place this Saturday 1st July, is a thrilling spectacle and one of the high lights of living on the island. As a non-sailor Karen's perk is following the race by car and stopping off at strategic points for strengthening with coffee, lunch or ice cream.
The fleet of as many as 1600 yachts set off from Cowes in a staggered start with the fast boats beginning at 5.30am and the less racy types starting later but before 7 am for the 60 nautical mile race.
From The Parade in Cowes and all along the seafront to The Green you have an excellent view of the yachts jostling for position and see and hear the cannon firing from in front of The Royal Yacht Squadron. The fleet set off anti-clockwise around the island heading for the Needles.
In a car you depart for Yarmouth and then on to Colwell Bay for either coffee or an early lunch at The Hut (definitely best to book, 01983 898637). The Hut is an easy-going beach restaurant, serving delicious fresh local food and has sensational views of the Solent.
The boats traditionally get into a terrific melee off the Needles and if you are very energetic you can drive there to watch the crush.
I prefer to head to Saint Catherine's Point near Ventnor where, weather dependent, you can either picnic sitting on the grassy cliff just along from the light house to see the boats tacking quite close along the shore, or lunch in the gardens of the Buddle Inn ( Tel: 01983 730243) and have a more distant panoramic with your lunch.
Then drive along the winding Bonchurch Road where the driver will have to concentrate on the road but the passengers can get glimpses of blue sea by looking to the right. Wait for the fleet to catch you up when you get to Seaview; ice cream time obviously, and then back to Cowes to greet your intrepid crew in either the beer tent or the famous Pier View pub.
What to Wear
Obviously anything nautical is essential on the day. If you are a hardened yachty-type you will probably shy away from anything that looks remotely new; ancient t-shirts with iconic boat names are the equivalent of a school tie or a pedigree – but in the same way, feigned association with a boat will be derided.
For everyone else it is navy blue or white and faded red and stripes with everything. Here are our suggestions:

[English version] The secrets of Beaujolais Nouveau's making
Well. In less than one week, everyone in the world will buy some Beaujolais Nouveau. And, because the event is becoming closer and closer, a lot of people are talking about it on social networks.
We wanted to answer some questions people can have in their mind. We wanted to answer some questions people can never ask to professionnals because they don't have the time to answer it.
Today, we are going to explain you the secrets of Beaujolais Nouveau's making.
First, I apologise if I do some mistakes. I have learnt English and this is not my born language. I am from Beaujolais and I grew in a winemakers' family.
I wanted to modify the French infography I drew in September but I can't find the photoshop version. Then, I added purple number and letters to explain you, here, in English.
I really hope it will be clear enough for everyone. If you have some more questions, please ask us : we can answer about everything about Beaujolais Nouveau, or others wines of Beaujolais.
1 – Step 1 : harvest and sorting. We don't like leaves and rotten grapes. Someone is on the trailor and pull off what's not good for the wine.
2 – Step 2 : the grapes are going in the tanks through a conveyor belt. We can continue to sort what we have not seen on the trailor.
3 : The name of the grapes we are using in Beaujolais is : Gamay noir à jus blanc. The grapes are black but the juice is white.
A : Traditionnal method of Beaujolais Nouveau's making when the grapes are perfect.
B : Heating up grapes and warm maceration when the grapes are not top-quality.
4A – Step 4A : The grapes are just in the tank. There is some juice who appears in the bottom of the tanks because of the weight of the grapes above. This juice is driven at the top again. We add SO2 (3 to 6g/hundred liters). These is very few proportion.
4B – Step 4B : The grapes are just in the tank. We heat the grapes and juice up to 72°C. The juice goes through a pipe who is going through a very hot pipeline. This allows to extract a nice color and to have some nice tastes and a lovely smell. The heating up can last 8 hours and we must look after it because of the risk of explosion.
5A – 12 hours after the arrival in the tank : the maceration has started. What is maceration ? The sugar is transformed into alcohol. There is foam above the grapes and the tank has a very strong flavour of CO2 gas, which is produced while the maceration.We use the juice in the bottom to heat up the temperature of the grapes (24°C).
5B – 12 hours after the arrival in the tank : the maceration can start when the grapes are less than 37°C. Under 37°C, we have to add yiest because everything is destroyed while the heating up. We need to cool down the grapes until 24°C and put the juice from the bottom to the top of the tank, to oxygenate the grapes.
6A – 1 day after the arrival in the tank : maceration is continuing. We must take the juice from the bottom of the tank to the top. This allow to oxygenate the grapes and maceration needs oxgen.
6 B – 1 day after the arrival in the tank : We must control the temperature (between 28/30°C). If not, the maceration can have a very bad reaction. The maceration just started a few hours ago and the tank has a strong flavour of CO2 and some foam appears above the grapes.
7A – day 2, same as step 6A
8A – day 3 : if necessary (and only if), we must add sugar. If there is not enough sugar in the juice (bad weather just before the picking), maceration can not be completed. Sugar maximum allowed : 27g/liter.
7B : day 2 to day 4 : same as step 6B.
9 : the pressing time (between day 4 and 6 for traditionnal method and day 4 for the heating up's method).
We first have to empty out the juice to put in another tank. Then, we open the door of the tank and the grapes go in the press through a machine and a pipe. Then, we press the grapes and their is another sort of alcoholic juice. This juice is called « Paradis » (Heaven) because it is very sweet.
The two kind of alcoholic juices are mixed and then, start the last maceration. Some kinds of acids are going to transform the juice in wine. After this second maceration called « malo-lactique », the juice becomes wine. Not before.
This is how we are making Beaujolais Nouveau's wine !
Would you imagine that ?

Days fall like jacaranda blossoms to the ground
Gently drifting from future to present to past.
A soft purple rain, a subtle sea of sound
A movement, sometimes slow and sometimes fast.
There's much magic and mystery to be found
Before the game is done, the die has been cast.
"Smell the roses" is a wisdom well renowned
And one worth following to life's very last.
But the fleeting blossoms quickly fade from the tree
And are forgotten. Let us capture what we've known:
Make pressed flowers of our memories for all to see.
One day we'll page through fragile petals, you and me,
Sharing the echo of their fragrance; there, in the past now flown,
We'll find the happy moments to set our future free.

The Ident service as specified by RFC 1413 is mostly used by various IRC networks and the occasional old FTP server to ask a remote server which user is making a connection. This method is quite untrustworthy, as the remote host can simply choose to lie.
So you have two choices:
- Tell the truth (see #oidentd below)
- Tell a little white lie (see nullidentdmod or nullidentd below)
See oidentd.
If all went well, you should have the auth service running on port 113. A good way of checking this is by installing nmap (if you do not have it already) and typing
$ nmap localhost
1. Install the nullidentdmodAUR package.
2. Enable
nullidentdmod.socket on systemd.
3. Start
nullidentdmod.socket on systemd.
4. Check if is working here[dead link 2020-02-24].
As is, nullidentdmod will return a random userid.
1. Create a replacement unit file for
# systemctl edit --full nullidentdmod@.service
At line 6, write desired userid
[Unit] Description=NullidentdMod service [Service] User=nobody ExecStart=/usr/bin/nullidentdmod <userid> StandardInput=socket StandardOutput=socket [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target
Obviously where <userid> you put your custom userid.
4. Check if is working here[dead link 2020-02-24]
This Ident server is capable of only returning the same name for any query. With a quick change to a single line of code, it can be customized to return any name you can think. One use for such a simple service would be for IRC client connections to ensure a degree of privacy (remote IRC server and users do not know your username) as well as allowing a small degree of 'vanity plating' for use in IRC channels.
The original code suffered link rot, but may now be found on github, at this address https://github.com/dxtr/nullidentd.
systemd activation
Below are two files you need to create under
1. identd@.service
[Unit] Description=per connection null identd [Service] User=nobody ExecStart=/usr/local/sbin/nullidentd StandardInput=socket StandardOutput=socket
2. ident.socket
[Unit] Description=socket for ident [Socket] ListenStream=113 Accept=yes [Install] WantedBy=sockets.target
3. inform SystemD of the new files
# systemctl daemon-reload
4. Test that the socket is listening sucessfully
$ systemctl status ident.socket
this should yield output similar to the below
ident.socket - socket for ident Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/ident.socket; enabled) Active: active (listening) since Fri 2014-01-24 02:30:53 WST; 30 seconds ago Listen: [::]:113 (Stream) Accepted: 0; Connected: 0 Jan 24 02:30:53 HOSTNAME systemd[1]: Listening on socket for ident.

Issue #3 Cover
You probably noticed that brand spanking new image on the front page. Long promised and I finally delivered. I kept my black trilogy going. This was a pretty hard one to get done. I wanted to show the pivotal scene in the book. But keep it vague enough not to give away the reasoning or how Tommy got to that spot. Believe me, it doesn't give away the ending, just where I'm headed for the ending of this book.
Issue #3 is not like the other two issues. It moves a little quicker with more dramatic spots. As you can notice, Tommy's grown a bit. But is he any more prepared?
Each issue I've tried to mold my main story into self contained chapters leading with a main story. Issue #1 was a overview of the origin of the mask. It let me fit a golden/silver age feel to the book while introducing the main elements.
Issue #2 was an introduction to the main character and his path. It was intended to be a romp and adventure (meaning plot light) while introducing some of the parts of the story that will continue to echo on throughout issue #3.
Issue #3 is a little more serious and a little more story heavy. This culminates Tommy's initial journey in a way he never saw coming. And those that think the above image telegraphs anything more than what was established at the end of issue #2, might be surprised. Remember this is meant to read as a graphic novel, so anything you might have felt was missing from the earlier two parts, I hope you find it in this.
Working away to finish it. Starting my initial layouts to BOOK TWO. I can't wait to get started on that part.
Comments are closed.

Get the latest health & nutrition news and 365 Vitamins offers direct to your inbox
Posted by Glen Howard on July 23, 2015
I remember a piece of advice someone gave me a few years ago: don't drink calories. For a start they're
usually empty calories, meaning there's no nutritional value in them. And they're really easy to drink too,
so it's harder to keep an eye on the number of calories you're glugging. A great example is a can of coke.
It's full of sugar and bad chemicals and has zero nutritional value. Avoid at all costs.
How to do it:
So what should you drink? Just drink water. You can save a lot of calories over the day by doing this one
thing. Don't even bother with the cordial drinks that a lot of people use. Cordials are chock full of sugar
too. At first it might be difficult to drink water without the sugary addition. But, trust me, you get used to
it. If you don't like water, try adding some lemon or lime slices to your glass. Or try drinking herbal teas.
Peppermint, and lemon and ginger are particularly favourites.

MR8. Mexico 1779 Mo FF eight reales. Choice mint state with deep prooflike fields and frosty devices. Spectacular eye appeal. The money-is-no-object Millennia Collection could not find a better Mexican 8 reales of Charles III (probably because there isn't one). NGC "Millennia/Hesselgesser MS 62 PL". [On hold 3/13]
Circulated Mexican 8 reales from the reign of Charles III (1759-1788) are available, but , as the experience of the Millennia collector testifies, choice uncirculated coins are rarities. No hoards from the 1780's feed our supply of these reales. No coins were put away in early numismatic collections. Any Mexican 8 reales that has survived almost 250 years without commercial use or melting is a fortunate accident.
If you like the cameo effect that deeply mirrored fields create, especially with this bust of Charles III, this coin is truly spectacular. Deep prooflike coins arise in one or two ways. Absolutely new dies strike coins of moderate prooflike depth, but the deepest prooflike surfaces arise when a previously used die is repolished before being put back in service. That is clearly what happened in 1779 at Mexico City. Dies that had sat on the shelf for some time, perhaps garnering a trace of rust, were put back to work after a vigorous cleaning. The unintended result was for a short time at least a run of beautiful deeply prooflike 8 reales. Deep prooflike coins do not photograph well because the thousands of tiny raised polishing lines confuse the camera. The human eye is smarter and see the deeply mirrored fields framing frosty devices. Laid out beside a dozen other top quality 8 reales at the Millennia Sale in 2008, this coin was the eye-catcher. Several enamored bidders ran the sale price to more than three times the estimate.
On Hold.
