Philip Conrod & Lou Tylee have co-authored dozens of books and tutorials for beginning Microsoft Basic, Small Basic, Visual Basic, and Visual C# developers of all ages for over 25 years.
A small comment.
In the excellent tutorial Small Basic: Introduction to programming there are two examples that I think should be explained better in their programming logic, in how it works.
One is the game of the Paddle, which only shows the instructions but does not feature an explanatory paragraph and the other is Fractals
It is an introductory book for very beginners.
Thanks and regards
Carlos, which page/chapter are you referring to? Thanks!
"welcome" folder does not exist. first step in the world of programing turned out to be a trip and a fall
Spicy, yes that folder exists as a download when you purchase the book. I'll make that clearer in the article. Thanks!
I thought I could learn programming with this bonzai Basic. Microsoft should arrange for free learning without us having to buy third party's books.

You fellas have certainly had a wonderful time at Andover and this is no exception, well done Adrian a wonderful image.
I see you have also gone the way of Brian65 and purchased that wonderful lens.... I am trying to convince myself to bur the Nikkor 300mmm f4, I can't quite afford the f2.8 which is a nuisance as I have just seen Dean's Eagle portrait.

you did better than I did and you used a 400 lens - they move pretty fast (well for me they did) thought the 400 would have been too much for such a large bird but nope you nailed him and well done

Plus Size Scrubs? - page 2
What is your favorite? I am 5'4" and in street clothes a 16 or 18. I am having an awful time finding scrubs. Any recommendations?... Read More
- 0Sep 9, '11 by CloveryI was searching for 2x scrub pants online and found most online scrub places sell them. You can also find them on amazon. But I checked out the local ScrubPro and they had a bunch in stock there so I got to try them on. I'm 5'4 too and I had to hem a couple of inches off the pants.
- 0Sep 22, '11 by newnursekatAlso having trouble finding scrubs that fit me well and are comfortable. I'm a new nurse and havent bought scrubs since clinicals last year and unfornately they dont fit well anymore. I'm 5'10" , 3x on top, 2x on bottom.. pants arent the issue but would like to hear what you all think are comfortable bottoms and stretch. the tops are the problem.. since im taller, i would like longer tops. everything seems to be so short. and the arms tend to be tight along with the shoulders. And i tried on a top that had no shape yesterday at a store and wow! not flattering lol. so I have seen stretchy tops and of course i dont know the brand other than cherokee flexibles. What do ya all like ??? and whats comfortable?? I wont work well if I am not comfortable!

When One Partner Won't Budget
Based on my calculations (which I will freely admit are pure guesstimates based more or less on my own withholdings), he can expect to owe approximately $8,840 by the end of the year. This amount should include federal and state income tax, social security, and medicare. Based on his earnings to date, he should have $4,760 set aside for taxes as of this moment. Guess how much is in his savings account right now? $4,194.99. So he's short of where he should be and since he had been thinking of that as his emergency fund, not his tax fund…well. You see the dilemma.
Where to Go From Here?
Regarding budgeting, my plan is to continue to suggest it and wait for him to catch on before deciding whether to combine finances. He's never even calculated any of this himself, though I did share the projected tax information with him, which he appreciated. While he freely admits he has no idea when any specific bill is due and is always surprised when they arrive, he also doesn't see any need to change the system when he's never been late paying any bill and pays more than the minimum on all his credit cards.
On the positive side, his average disbursement to himself has doubled from about $1,000 to about $2,000, so his business is growing.
What would you do in my situation? As I mentioned in the comments of my previous post, I refuse to become The Girl Who Only Says No or The Girl Who Only Talks About Money, because that will only poison the well for every aspect of our relationship, not just our finances.I admire a lot of what J.D. and Kris said in their interview with Redbook, and they had a successful multi-decade marriage and a successful (and much rarer) amicable divorce. So please note I will only consider advice that is both relationship-affirming as well as financially astute!

I talked to one of their recruiting representatives at the univ career fair, and then after three weeks, I got a call from one of the hiring manager requesting for an on-site interview.

Some of them also asked about some system design questions and brain teaser questions. I followed up after two weeks, no one replied my email.Interview Questions

I applied through college or university. The process took 4+ weeks – interviewed at Symantec in February 2013.Interview Details
Contacted through Campus career fair. The process was straightforward, 1 screening, 2 technical interviews. The recruiter was nice and helpful and became a personal friend later. The first interviewer was a bit quiet, which was uncomfortable for me, so I don't think I did very well. The second one was nice and more talkative, which allowed me to discuss the problem more. Overall, the interview experience was average.Interview Questions

- The first question was about parsing in C (char array, etc.). The second interview question was simply to quickly write a program to return the angle between two hands of the clock. It was more about approaching the question and being thorough with inputs/outputs, etc. Answer Question

The process took a day – interviewed at Symantec in October 2011.Interview Details
Was referred to the hiring manager, contacted him, and set up an interview. Interview was 1 on 4, and consisted of mainly technical questions, also some code writing on a whiteboard, and a couple more standard questions as well. Interview went well, and they indicated they'd get an offer out to me within a couple days. One month later, an offer finally arrived, but by that time I had already accepted elsewhere. They have a nice building and nice staff, but I got the feeling that they are severely understaffed and highly stressed.Interview Questions

It took place for 45 mins.The next round of technical interview was also a 45 min interview, a bit more in-depth. Questions were related to algorithms, complexity, sorting techniques, etc. I was asked to solve an in-place array sorting program in O(n) complexity. The last round was a 20 minute interview, which mostly concentrated on general questions. They gave me a situation about multi processors and asked me how I would tackle the situation. Some questions on multithreading and operating systems.
I felt a positive vibe through all my interviews. After the last interview, they never contacted me. They didn't even bother to reply to my emails. I felt it was very unprofessional.Interview Questions

Popsicle Stick Log Cabin
See in slideshow:Baby, It's Cold Outside: Great Winter Activities for Kids
Whether your kids were entranced by Little House on the Prairie or simply love to build things, this popsicle stick "log cabin" is a great introduction to pioneer history. What it lacks in authenticity it makes up in fun, and there's no better incentive to learn than that (except having an excuse to eat 100 popsicles!).
What You Need:
- Popsicle sticks – lots (save and wash used sticks, or buy new ones at craft stores)
- Wood glue
- Hobby knife
- Cotton balls
- A cardboard box
What You Do:
- Most pioneers would have started with a dirt floor, but not your child. Make the floor by placing two popsicle sticks down vertically a few inches apart. Drizzle glue all over them. Now line up popsicle sticks horizontally on top. Don't leave any space between sticks. Let dry.
- When dry, begin making walls. Pioneers would have used whole logs (perhaps with the bark still on) and cut chinks in the corners to hold them in place, but you'll stick with glue. Show your child how to put a dot of glue in the corner of each stick as you lay it in place. Place two sticks parallel to each other on opposite ends of the floor, then lie two sticks parallel to each other on the opposite side, so they are resting on top of the first layer.
- If you want a door or windows, cut the middle few inches out of enough sticks to span the height of the cabin for a door, and a smaller number for a window.
- Continue stacking sticks as in Step 2, using the trimmed sticks in one row and leaving the empty spot in the middle if including a window or door. Don't worry about the sagging sticks – you'll fix that later.
- When the walls are high enough, make a roof. Cut two equilateral traingles of cardboard, with each side measuring the length of one popsicle stick. Glue a triangle to the top of the front and back walls.
- Once dry, place popsicle sticks in horizontal lines across the two traingle roof pieces until you have made a pointed wooden roof. Trim popsicle sticks and glue upright on roof to make a chimney, if desired. Set aside to dry.
- Don't worry about the gaps between logs: pioneers had those too and used moss and grass "chinking" to keep the wind out. Tear the cotton and stuff it between the boards to make a warm and cozy cabin. Ma and Pa have nothing on your new cabin!

Book Review: Barely Breathing by Michael J. Kolinski
Jake Wood plans to visit his cousin, Jana, in Los Angeles. He hasn't seen her in over 10 years, and he's hoping the visit will help snap him out of the guilt he's feeling after being the sole survivor of a workplace shooting. But when he arrives in LA, Jana fails to meet him or return his phone calls. He's not worried at first, since he knows that she just got an exciting job working for the renowned scientific researcher Dr. Gregory Mirek. When he drops by Jana's house and finds her best friend, Laurie, who hasn't heard from her in days either, he starts suspecting she's missing, and it might have something to do with Dr. Mirek.
I like a good mystery, and the description and cover of this book gave it a bit of a noir feel, so I was excited to see what twists on the noir mystery genre the book could bring. Unfortunately, a potentially interesting plot was held back by both some awkward writing and portions of the book that just left a bad taste in my mouth.
The plot is interesting and different enough from other mysteries to keep the reader engaged and intrigued. I personally have not seen a modern mystery revolving around a missing cousin, and I liked how different this felt. The inclusion of a mystery about Dr. Mirek and just what he's researching into what happened to Jana, who is working for him, gave it another level of interesting information and twists that keeps the reader reading. On the other hand, the inclusion of Jake's past trauma being the sole survivor of a work-place shooting felt tacked on and did not add much to the plot. If anything, at the beginning of the book, I was wondering if this book was the second in the series, since it felt like I was supposed to already know what had happened to Jake.
The writing really doesn't support the plot very well, however. There is quite a bit of showing instead of telling as well as passages that just read awkwardly, instead of building the suspense they were supposed to. The quote below is an example of this.
After a long pause she said, "Yes, sacrifices," in a faraway voice. At the time, I didn't realize that she was referring to issues much more meaningful than gridlock. (loc 673)
There were also passages that just felt out of touch with modern life, particularly for the age of Jake, the main character, who sometimes reads like an old man. For instance, when Jana first doesn't show up he googles her for the first time ever and looks at her Facebook page for the first time ever. There is no way cousins that got back in touch after a decade of low contact would wait that long to google each other or look at each other's Facebook pages. Even people in this age-range who don't use Facebook themselves will still google a new contact. Jake's lack of technological and social media savvy just felt really wrong for his demographic.
As far as the characterizations of the main characters goes, Jake is moderately well-rounded but he also isn't much of a noir hero. He's clumsy, bad at appearing bad-ass, and hesitant, and yet simultaneously he's good at fist-fighting (thanks to wrestling moves from high school), and he keeps being asked to be in porn by random people on the street (or if he is in porn). When his character isn't thrust into noir-style encounters, it is well-rounded and interesting. When his character is, however, it feels awkward and unnatural. Laurie is relatively well-rounded and interesting, as is her boyfriend. We don't see anybody else enough for them to be more than a passing two-dimensional character, and these are handled well.
The book does, however, put a bad taste into my mouth both in how it deals with fatness and how it deals with bisexuality. The book comes across as fatphobic. Any overweight character is also bad, and Jake judges them for being fat. I'm not saying an overweight person can't be bad, but when every single overweight character is bad and the "good guy" main character judges them for it, it comes across as fatphobic.
Dr. Mirek is revealed to be bisexual, and the reveal is in the most insensitive way possible. Jake is pretending to be a journalist who had a tough interview with Dr. Mirek. He's talking to an undergrad journalist student who previously interviewed Dr. Mirekto under the guise of getting more information on him from her than he could himself. She states that he was really creepy toward her in her interview and then reveals that she thinks he might be bisexual in a tone that implies that this is just as bad as creeping on her during her interview. To this Jake responds,
I don't think my editor wants me writing that Dr. Mirek is a bi-sexual creep with a gambling problem. (loc 1594)
First, bisexual is spelled wrong, and it is never spelled correctly in the book. Second, this entire conversation implies that bisexuality is just as bad as being addicted to gambling or engaging in inappropriate come-ons. Just as with the fatphobia, there is nothing wrong with a bad guy character being bisexual, but equating his bisexuality with his badness, implying that it is part of what makes him bad, is a problem, and it is biphobic.
At the end of the book, it is revealed that Dr. Mirek had a relationship with Laurie's boyfriend (implying the boyfriend is also bisexual, I might add), and that the boyfriend only participated in kidnapping Laurie and covering up the illegal animal experiments because of this relationship. The implication from the tone of the book is that getting into a same-sex relationship with Dr. Mirek is what brought the boyfriend down into crime. Even in the trial, the defense lawyer
conceded that Dr. Mirek and Danny Clarke had a consensual homosexual relationship. (loc 3694)
*end spoilers*
I would like to note that since this was a review copy submitted to me last November/December for review this year, I was extra offended at the biphobic content, as my review policies explicitly state that I do not wish to review anything with biphobic content. I am offended that an author who read my review policies well enough to submit properly and get accepted, who also knew one of his characters was bisexual, did not take a moment to check and see if this representation could possibly be biphobic. It is offensive to me as a person, and I feel that the author owes me an apology for putting me through reading something I very clearly stated I did not want to read. It is often impossible to know from a blurb if a book will be biphobic/homophobic/transphobic, and it is really up to the author to self-censor and not submit for review something like that to a reviewer who explicitly stated they do not wish to read that content. In all honesty, though, rather than an apology from the author, I would prefer he take some time to read up on bisexuality and biphobia to correct this biphobia in future writing.
Overall, the plot is interesting but the writing at the sentence level struggles. Additionally, the tone of the book is fatphobic and biphobic, which will both offend some readers and shows a lack of writing three-dimensional characters, since people are bad based on their bodies and sexualities and not their character. I recommend readers looking for a modern LA noir look elsewhere.

Book Review: The Diabolist by Layton Green (Series, #3)
Dominic Gray, ex-government worker, ex-military, and once professional jiu-jitsu fighter, is seeing a lull in his work as assistant to Professor Viktor Radek on private detective cases involving religious mysteries and the occult. He's set up shop in New York City, teaching jiu-jitsu to inner-city youth. But when a high-ranking Satanist is murdered in front of his entire congregation by a mysterious figure who sets him on fire at a distance and then disappears himself, Dominic is quickly pulled into a new case with Viktor. High-ranking Satanists worldwide keep dying in the same, or similar, mysterious ways, and the odd thing is, it's not the Christians doing it.
I've enjoyed this series from the very beginning. The combination of religious studies, private detectives, and international intrigue suck me in every time. This latest entry in the series does not fail to deliver, bringing once again the perfect combination of religious philosophy, mystery, and private detective intrigue.
This entry brings us back to the more mystical origins of the series. Rather than biomedicine as in the second book, what's involved here is ancient occultism and what may or may not be magic tricks. I was happy to see this occult mysticism represented in the developed world this time, pointing out that it's not just surviving in developing countries in modern times. The actual religion of Satanism is well explained and given room for both good-hearted followers and evil fanatics, just as may be seen in every religion. Green keeps an even hand when writing about religion, even when writing about Satanism, and that's to be commended. A drop of mysticism is provided, and it's left up to the reader to decide if it was science or magic ultimately responsible for the mysterious occurrences, which is ideal for this type of book.
The entwining of Viktor's backstory with the mystery was well-done, and it was certainly time for the reader to learn more about Viktor. Unfortunately, I must say that Viktor's backstory made me dislike him more than I had previously, but it certainly also helps form him into a more well-rounded character. There's a delightful femme fatale, enshrouded in both beauty and mystery. Her ending, however, did feel a bit abrupt. Dominic goes very quickly from one opinion of her to another, and not enough known, factual information is provided for the reader to keep up with this. On the other hand, the ending was surprising and also made logical sense, and it also put the main characters in a frightful level of mortal danger. Exactly the kind of ending one looks for in this type of book.
Overall, the third entry in the series continues to deliver the private detective exploration of moral and mystical gray areas. Those who enjoyed the first entry in the series more than the second will be happy to see the return to the mysticism found in the first book. Those who enjoyed the science of the second will be glad to see the science of magic covered extensively in this entry. Recommended to fans of the series to pick it up as soon as possible.

Book Review: Lana'i of the Tiger by JoAnn Bassett (Series, #3)
Maui wedding planner, Pali Moon, wound up as a key witness against a drug ring, and now she's been whisked into witness protection, sent to the small boring island of Lana'i, and right at the holidays no less! The feds seem to be taking their sweet time getting the case to court, and Pali is bored out of her mind, used to the hustle and bustle of wedding planning. When a small local bed and breakfast advertises looking for temporary help while they go to the main island to have their baby, it seems like the ideal situation. But when a famous guest's fiancee turns up dead, Pali finds herself right in the thick of things again.
I picked this mystery up when I saw it on sale (for free) in the kindle store, in spite of it being midseries. The punny title made me think it was probably a cozy, and I know those series are totally fine to read out of order. I was right in that I never felt lost in the story due to starting mid-series, but I wasn't right about it being a cozy. Pun-filled title aside, this is an easy-going mystery, ideal for a beach read, but missing the appendixes of add-ons such as recipes or patterns found in cozy mysteries
Pali is a three-dimensional character who jumps off the page, and the supporting characters, while not necessarily three-dimensional, each have enough different quirks and personalities that they are memorable. That said, Pali may be three-dimensional but she's sure not likable. One example, she kisses someone on Lana'i, and then later finds out that her boyfriend may be cheating on her and flips out. But wasn't she just cheating by kissing someone else? The hypocrisy left a really sour taste in my mouth for Pali. Characters don't have to be likable, but in light-hearted mysteries where we're supposed to be rooting for the non-professional PI, it really helps for them to be.
The mystery was fairly good. I certainly didn't figure it out until right before the reveal, and the ultimate solution made sense. This is all I really look for in a mystery.
The setting was probably the best part. Bassett evokes (what I can only imagine is) the real feel of Hawaii. Each island visited has its own feel, Hawaiian culture is solidly represented with things like islanders calling all the elderly women "aunty" and locals being able to talk their way onto a ferry for free. What kept me reading the book was my desire to spend time in Hawaii, combined with a mystery I was interested in the solution to.
Overall, the rich Hawaiian setting and actually mysterious mystery make this a fun beach read. The main character is three-dimensional but could rub some readers the wrong way. Those looking for a traditional cozy should be forewarned that this book doesn't come with any traditional cozy extras. Recommended to those looking for a light mystery set in Hawaii.

Book Review: The Running Game by L. E. Fitzpatrick (Series, #1)
Rachel is a doctor in the slums outside of London. It's not a great place to live, but it's safer than a lot of the other options available. She's also a Reacher with telepathic powers. Since she was a young girl, she learned to hide her abilities and always know her exits so she could run at any time. But when two brothers show up, one a wounded Reacher, and tell her a mobster sent them looking for her, she has to decide whether to run again or trust the brothers.
Near-future dystopias will never cease in their appeal to me, and so I was fairly quick to accept this one when I was choosing ARCs to read for 2014. The book offers a grim dystopia but far less running than one would imagine from the title.
The book establishes the overall dreary setting of a dystopia fairly quickly. Rachel's work at the hospital and commuting home from it is dirty and grimy. Society is clearly barely functioning, a fact that is smoothly and clearly established. It takes a bit more time to learn more about the over-arching world, and the fact that Rachel is a "Reacher," a person with some form of telepathic powers. For some reason, the government is seeking to eradicate all Reachers, whereas the church, which is illegal, views them as angels sent from above, metaphorically speaking. It's an interesting world but our view into it is quite narrow, so there's a lot of questions left unanswered.
Rachel is a good, strong character who is well-rounded in spite of knowing little of her backstory. The brothers, on the other hand, are kind of annoying and two-dimensional. They and the general crime lords/corrupt cops feel much more cookie cutter than Rachel does. In a way, they drag her down. It's hard to root for her when she chooses to cast in lots with this bunch.
Similarly, the plot focuses in on what feels more like a standard crime thriller plot, rather than a dystopian one. It's a good crime plot, but it's not a dystopian one. The title implies a much more dystopian style book, such as Rachel using her powers to outwit the government and start a new colony or something like that. Instead it feels a bit more like an urban fantasy style crime plot that just so happens to be surrounded by society breaking down, somewhere out there. I think marketing it as a running game, rather than as the crime mystery plot it really is hinders the book a bit. Readers who would like an urban fantasy style futuristic crime novel might miss it, because it sounds so dystopian. The title and summary give the vibe of a Logan's Run or Maze Runner style book, when that's not what it is. What it is is a perfectly good futuristic crime novel, but that's not what it sounds like.
Overall, this is a quick-moving tale of futuristic crime with a dash of telepathic powers and an easily imagined setting. Fans of near future, fantasy, and crime will enjoy seeing the three intertwine. Those looking for more of a scifi or dystopian focus should look elsewhere.

Book Review: One Death at a Time by Thomas M. Hewlett (Series, #1)
Jack Strayhorn is a private eye and a member of Alcoholic's Anonymous. Only, he's not an alcoholic, he's one of the vampires who meet in a secret vampire group that exists under the umbrella of AA to learn how to control their urges and feed on humans without killing them. He's just returned to LA, his death site that he hasn't been back to since he had to run in 1948 after becoming a vampire. When his current missing person case shows up dead next to a Fae politician, Jack gets dragged into a mixed-up underworld of Faes, werewolves, drugs, and a group of vampires determined to rule the world.
This is one of the twelve indie books I accepted to be reviewed on my blog in 2014 (complete list). I was immediately intrigued by the summary, due to its delightful urban fantasy/paranormal take on AA. The book delivers exactly what it promises, spiced with a noir writing style.
Jack Strayhorn is the perfect paranormal version of the noir-style hardboiled detective. He's got a biting, snarky wit, a handsome presence, a sharp mind, and is a bit distant and mysterious. It's just in this case he's distant and mysterious because he's a vampire. Making the private eye a vampire makes his character unique in noir, and, similarly, making the vampire a private eye with his focus primarily on crime solving and not paranormal politics gives the urban fantasy vampire a unique twist. Jack is presented as a complex character, one who we could not possibly get to know fully in just the first entry in the series. It's easy to see how he will manage to carry the proposed 12 entries in the series.
Supporting Jack is a wide range of characters who accurately portray the diversity in a large town like LA, as well as the diversity one expects in a paranormal world. The characters are multiple races and classes. Whereas some urban fantasy books slowly reveal the presence of more and more paranormal races throughout the series, this book starts out with quite a few, and that is a nice change of pace. Most urban fantasy readers expect there to be more than just vampires, and the book meets the urban fantasy reader where they're at. Even though the book has a large cast, the secondary characters never blend together. They are easily remembered, and the diversity probably helps with that.
I like the idea of vampires having an AA-like group, but I'm still not sure how I feel about this group existing as some secret under the umbrella of AA itself. The book even goes so far as to say the the founder of AA was a vampire himself, and used the human illness of alcoholism as a cover for the vampire group. I like and appreciate vampirism as a disease that some people just mysteriously have at birth as an analogy for alcoholism, but I feel that having it present in the same group as the real life AA groups dampens the realness of actual AA, weakening the analogy instead of strengthening it. I've seen books before have paranormal people get together in AA-style groups (zombies anonymous springs to mind), and in real life AA has spinoffs such as Narcotics Anonymous and Overeaters Anonymous. Prior to reading the book I thought maybe something might be added by having the vampires be a secret organization under AA, but after reading the book, I don't think it did. I think the analogy would have been stronger if vampires spotted the similarities of their genetic vampirism with alcoholism and formed a "vampires anonymous" group, inspired by AA. Something about vampires creating AA themselves as a cover hits a bit of a sour note and weakens the analogy.
The plot is complex, with just enough twists and surprises. There were parts of the ending that I was unable to predict. The plot contained within the book was wrapped up sufficiently, and the overarching plot intending to cover the whole series was well-established and filled me with the desire to keep reading. Unfortunately, the second book isn't out yet, so I will just have to wait!
Overall, this is a delightful mix of urban fantasy and noir and is a strong first entry for a new series. Some readers might dislike the paranormal take on Alcoholic's Anonymous found within the book, but it is secondary to the mystery/noir plot and easy to gloss over if necessary. Recommended to urban fantasy readers looking to venture into noir or vice versa, as well as anyone who enjoys both urban fantasy and noir.

It's 0600 this morning and I've got my running shoes laced, my dry wick running hat on, and my nathan jogging belt fastened! I'm literally standing at the door waiting for my husband to get home so we can leave and go run. He opens the door, and it's pouring down rain. I was devastated! I mean, I was really emotional! I've come to love the time I get to spend with my husband out running on the road, I hadn't even noticed how addicted I was getting to running. I said "Let's go anyway; we won't melt," but the husband would not be swayed. He was tired from work already, so he compromised with me and we got to do a whole hour of holy yoga together instead! What a blessing from the Lord this morning, He works in wonderful ways. Not going to lie though, I'm ready to throw on my running shoes again soon! Until then, good luck to everyone running in the Indy Mini tomorrow morning!
And in case you haven't heard of it, here's the wonderful link to Holy Yoga's amazing website:
I've mentioned before here that I'm an RN, an RN who works night shift. I've noticed in only one day that it is pretty tricky to track my fitness and food on this type of schedule. Some meals are after midnight, some before... But it's technically my lunch! I have been keeping to the literal times and tracking by days, food I eat May 2nd is on May 2nd's page even though it was really a meal I ate before I went to bed, as I sleep during the day of course. So I'll keep to the literal days for now, see how that works out for me! Good luck to other nurse's who are getting healthy, day or night shift!
We're on Week 5 Day 2 of training for our 5K this July! It's going well so far, but starting to get harder for sure. I enjoy the loving support of my husband who enourages me daily to keep running, he definitely makes this easier for me. We're over half way done, let's hope the second half goes great too! Good luck to any of you who are also training for a run/walk this summer!

Hi there,
Has anyone on the forums used 2 proxys in school? If so, how do you do it? We have the standard RM one provided by county - which is blanket for every user, but we'd like to add a second proxy that would over ride the RM one, but still use the RM as a filter. The reason is that we are looking at adding an extra proxy so teachers can still access youTube, but still are connected to the RM blocklists.
Sorry to sound so vauge, thanks in advance.

Lady GaGa: As Modest as She Ever Was
We see right through you, Lady GaGa. Or at least, we see right through that outfit you're wearing.
The "Poker Face" chanteuse made the rounds in New York on Sunday with designer Richie Rich, after performing two shows at NYC venue Terminal 5 the night before.
GaGa celebrated her triumphant stage performance by walking around in a see-through outfit that put GaGa's ta-tas on nearly full display.
Luckily, the outfit's embroidered design prevented her from completely violating the laws of decency. It was the Lord's day, after all...
Have your say in the comments section: What do you think about Lady GaGa's latest exercise in sartorial outrageousness?

PDC Energy Announces 2014 Capital Budget Of $647 Million And 2014 Production Guidance Of 9.5 Million BOE To 10 Million BOE Or Approximately 34% Year-Over-Year Growth; Solid Production Results From Wattenberg Downspacing Test And Ongoing Utica Development
The Garvin 1H, the Company's first Utica Shale well in Washington County, Ohio, continues to produce on a restricted choke. Gross production, after approximately thirty days of sales, averaged slightly over 100 barrels of condensate per day and nearly 4 million cubic feet per day of high-BTU gas. The Company is actively drilling two offset wells on the Garvin pad which are expected to be completed in early 2014.
The Neill 1H well, located in northwest Washington County, with a 6,000' lateral and 33 frac stages, has been on flowback for over 30 days and continues to recover condensate, high-BTU natural gas and frac load water. The well is exhibiting different frac load recovery characteristics than prior Utica wells. To date, during the cleanup, 24-hour peak hydrocarbon recovery was approximately 327 Boe/d assuming full ethane recovery. The Company expects production to improve as the frac load is recovered.
Operations Update – Marcellus Shale
At its O.E.S. pad in northeast Taylor County, West Virginia, PDCM recently turned all three wells to sales with a gross combined rate of approximately 18 million cubic feet per day of natural gas. The O.E.S. pad helps de-risk a good portion of PDCM's acreage block in this area. PDCM plans to finish drilling four wells at its Armstrong/Reynolds pad in southwestern Taylor County by early 2014 and expects to have the wells turned to sales early in the second quarter of 2014 following completion operations.CEO Comments James Trimble, President and CEO, stated, "We expect strong production growth in the fourth quarter 2013 from our Wattenberg, Utica and Marcellus operations. The fourth rig recently arrived in the Wattenberg Field and we anticipate meaningful production growth from both the Niobrara and Codell formations in 2014. We are excited about participating in the 26-well per section test in Wattenberg that could add significantly to our liquid-rich 3P inventory. Production from this test is expected to begin in the fourth quarter of 2014. In the Utica, we are extremely pleased with early results which support ongoing development in both our northern and southern Utica acreage positions. Our 60% liquids mix forecast for total company production in 2014 further demonstrates our transition from a natural gas focused company to a liquids focused one."

I have a 2000 GT XCR5000 inherited from my brother that I'm trying to rebuild as a backup bike. Upon tearing the whole bike apart I noticed that the Threads on the I-drive are stripped something awful. I was wondering if the I-Drive system is the same throughout the GT full sussers, or if the system is different in the various models. Any advice, wisdom, etc would be greatly appreciated. Also, If anyone has any parts of the bike lying around (namely the I-Drive, bottom bracket, Crankset) that they would like to unload, please let me know.
Thanks alot and happy riding.

LAS VEGAS. April 2, 2014 - Allegiant (NASDAQ: ALGT) has launched a new website to better assist Canadians with their U.S. travel plans. AllegiantCanada.ca features route maps and travel information in English and French for Canadians who choose to save big on their vacation by making a short drive to a U.S. airport south of the Canadian border.
With a focus on key cross-border airports, Canadians can select a nearby airport served by Allegiant and find all the necessary information one might need when flying with Allegiant. The new user-friendly microsite features:
Frequently Asked Questions specifically targeted at Canadian needs
U.S. border airport information including parking, accommodations and restaurants
Estimated driving times from Canadian cities
Canadians can save big money on air travel by flying out of the closest U.S. airport with Allegiant. Undercutting leading Canadian airline prices, Allegiant is the choice airline for Canadians wishing to spend their hard-earned dollars at their destination, rather than on the airfare to get there.
The carrier flies out of cities just south of the Canadian border, such as Bellingham, Wash., just an hour drive from Vancouver, or Niagara Falls, NY, just over an hour drive from Toronto. For a full list of the cross-border airports Allegiant serves, visit AllegiantCanada.ca. Canadian travelers can find nonstop flights to their favorite vacation destinations for as little as $89 one way.
"We are pleased to offer a convenient and easy-to-use site to address questions unique to our Canadian customers," said Scott Allard, Allegiant Travel Co. Chief Information Officer. "We are confident they will appreciate access to a bilingual Canadian site to better assist with information about Allegiant's nonstop flights from border-city airports to several sunny destinations and the value of bundling their air, hotel and car rental reservations together."
Allegiant is the hometown airline of 100 U.S. communities, providing low-cost, convenient air service to top vacation destinations such as Las Vegas, Orlando and Hawaii. Allegiant consistently offers lower fares on vacation travel, as well as great deals on hotels, cars and attractions, making vacation more affordable in the communities it serves.
About the $89 one-way fares:
Seats are limited. Price includes taxes and fees. Price reflects debit card discount; credit card price higher. Fares are one-way and not available on all flights. Must be purchased by April 7, 2014, for travel by October 28, 2014. Additional restrictions may apply.
Allegiant, Travel is our deal.®
Las Vegas-based Allegiant Travel Company (NASDAQ: ALGT) is focused on linking travelers in small cities to world-class leisure destinations. The company operates a low-cost, high-efficiency, all-jet passenger airline through its subsidiary, Allegiant Air, while also offering other travel-related products such as hotel rooms, rental cars, and attraction tickets. All can be purchased through the company website, allegiant.com. The company has been named one of America's 100 Best Small Companies by Forbes Magazine for four consecutive years.

|Here's the scoop for making corned beef yourself. (It's easy, but it must "cure" in the refrigerator for several days, so you'll want to start soon.) This version will surely taste better than the store-bought kind, but, unless you use the optional "salt peter" (see below) it won't be that bright red color that you find in the supermarket kind. You may adjust the seasonings (except for the proportion of salt, since that is essential to the "cure") to suit your personal taste preferences, although, if you've never made this before, I suggest you try the recipe as written, then make changes in future versions.The most common cut of meat for corned beef is a boneless beef brisket, which is divided into two pieces, and sold two ways: the first or "flat" cut, and the "point" cut which is fattier and tastier, as well as more tender. If you decide on the point cut, you may have to ask for it – these days the leanest cuts are the ones most commonly displayed. Eye roasts and round roasts are also corned - but the result is dryer and less tender, more like the flat-cut brisket. These leaner meat cuts slice the most neatly, though - so take your choice.
For a 4-6-pound beef brisket or other cut (as above)
1/2 cup, kosher (coarse-grain) salt
1 tablespoon, black peppercorns – coarsely cracked
1 tablespoon, brown sugar
3/4 tablespoon, ground allspice
1 tablespoon, dried thyme
1/2 tablespoon, paprika
2 bay leaves – crumbled
3 cloves, garlic – minced
optional (for red color): 1 tablespoon, sodium nitrite* – dissolved
in 1/2 cup, warm water. [*sold in pharmacies or order from butcher shops]
[Vegetables, as desired to serve with corned beef – see last paragraph]
Mix kosher salt with all other seasonings (but not saltpeter) in a small bowl. Pierce the brisket several times on each side with a skewer or heavy fork. (NOTE: this piercing step may be eliminated if meat is cured for 10-14 days, instead of 5-7 days, before rinsing and cooking.)
Rub both sides of meat evenly with salt/spice mixture. Place meat in heavy, 2-gallon size plastic zipper-lock bag, squeezing out as much air as possible before closing bag. [Pour over dissolved saltpeter in water, if using, before sealing bag.] Place bag with meat in a pan large enough to hold it, cover with another pan of similar size, and weight the top pan with two bricks, or with two heavy cans from the pantry.
Refrigerate for 5-7 days, turning bag once each day.
When ready to cook, remove corned beef from bag, and rinse the meat thoroughly under cold running water, to remove excess salt, and large spice pieces. Place the rinsed corned beef in a large, heavy pot, adding cold water to cover the meat by one inch, and bring water to a boil, skimming off any scum that rises to the surface. When water begins to boil, immediately lower the heat, and cover the pot, carefully checking frequently to be sure that the water only simmers (and never boils – which will toughen the meat). Simmer for about 3 hours, or until a skewer, inserted in the thickest part of the meat, slides out easily. [An instant read thermometer, inserted in the deepest part of the brisket at its center, will read 200-210 degrees, when the tough connective tissue has entirely gelatinized.] Allow the meat to cool in its liquid for at least 20 minutes. Flavor and texture get better as time goes by – making this a day in advance (refrigerate after cooling) works beautifully,
*COOK'S NOTE: If vegetables are to be added, remove the meat to a baking pan, ladle some broth over it, and cover the pan, keeping it warm in a very low oven, while cooking vegetables in the remaining broth in the pot. Simmer carrots, potatoes, onions and other firm vegetables (cut into pieces, as desired) for 10 minutes in the broth, then add cabbage (cut in wedges) and continue to simmer until all vegetables are tender (about another 10 minutes). Slice the corned beef and serve on a platter, surrounded with the vegetables.
