The question of today is: why has it taken me so long to make chilaquiles? Seriously, I'm sort of shocked this is the first time I'm posting about them because they might be one of my favorite breakfast dishes EVER.
I'm pretty sure they fall into my 'favorites' category because they're so nimble; they're great for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Since I am so passionate about them, this means I'm also bratty about them.
I like chilaquiles with a bit of beer simmered in. I like them to have a bit of spice. I like there to be cheese, but not too much cheese. And I love the wedges of tortillas to be freshly fried, preferably a tad bit over. This means that when they're topped with a bunch of sauce, they still have a bit of crunch to them.
This isn't the right way, it's just sort of my way.
For this recipe of my beloved Chilaquiles, I teamed up with Mi Rancho tortillas. These tortillas are made with non-gmo corn, yay! And the taco sliders (along with their other products) can be found at stores like Whole Foods or Gelson's. I really love them.

.- Representative Bill Sali (R-Idaho) on Wednesday spoke during a U.S. House hearing on abstinence-only government programs, saying such programs were effective at promoting healthy relationships and contributing to a decline in teen pregnancy in ways that did not offend the moral and religious convictions of many communities.
In a statement to the Oversight and Government Reform Committee, the congressman said abstinence education stresses the social, psychological and health benefits of abstinence while teaching that abstinence from sexual activity outside marriage is "the expected standard for all school age children." He cited a Heritage Foundation study released April 22 that analyzed 21 studies of abstinence programs. The study reported that 16 of the studies claimed positive findings about such programs' effectiveness.
"Unfortunately, most Americans don't even know what teens are being taught in sex education classes, abstinence-based or otherwise," Rep. Sali said.
Rep. Sali said that effective abstinence education teaches teens far more than to say "just say no" to sex. He said they also promote risk-avoidance to young people.
"Unfortunately," he said, "most of America does not know that abstinence education does teach teens about contraception and sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), including symptoms and modes of transmission along with the relative effectiveness of contraception methods."
Sali also noted that abstinence education programs aim to educate without engaging in the "explicit demonstrations" that most parents and communities reject as "distasteful" and even a violation of moral and religious convictions. The programs teach how to build healthy relationships and how to avoid unhealthy relationships, which Sali said often lead to sexual coercion and abuse. The programs also teach how to avoid dangerous alcohol and drug use, which can lead to sexual activity.
"Abstinence education is a complete approach to teaching teens about sexuality," he said. Rep. Sali claimed that since Congress began funding Community Based Abstinence Education, abstinence education has been credited for part of the decline in teen pregnancy.
Rep. Sali expressed shock about manuals labeled comprehensive sex education, saying he was "stunned" to see that Center for Disease Control-approved curriculum encouraged young people to shower together or cuddle naked, "along with other behaviors I would frankly be embarrassed to discuss before this Committee."
These behaviors, he said, were considered abstinent behavior in the "most widely used 'comprehensive' sex education curricula."
"I would wager that everyone on this committee understands where showering together and cuddling naked will lead," Rep. Sali said. "No one in this room could honestly believe that those kinds of actions will promote abstinence. In fact, quite the opposite."
He said no parent would want their children to perform such acts. Rep. Sali also argued such "graphic messages" cannot be equated with effective sex education and did not belong in schools, "especially at taxpayer expense."
"Abstinence education offers a real alternative – one that is tested, practical and respects the beliefs and concerns of Moms and Dads across the country. Let's give it a fair hearing and a healthy dose of support," Rep. Sali concluded.

Editor's Note: Thank you for your interest, these offers have expired and are no longer available.
Citibank (Citi), the largest MasterCard issuer, and American Express recently announced a major partnership whereby Citibank will issue 5 of its popular card offers on the American Express network. The new Citi American Express Cards will feature premium benefits and customer service from Citibank and will be honored wherever American Express cards are accepted. The new cards will offer various reward programs commonly associated with Citi cards, including cash back and reward point programs.
Other benefits of the Citi American Express Cards will include:
- No liability on unauthorized purchases
- 24/7 customer service
- Citi Identity Theft Solutions and Fraud Early Warning
- Option to pay over time or pay in full
- Worldwide Car Rental Loss and Damage Insurance
- 24-hour Emergency Assistance Services
- Worldwide Travel Accident Insurance
- Access to more than 2,200 American Express Travel Services locations
- Deals and discounts
- Worldwide acceptance of American Express cards
According to a recent news release, Vik Atal, Chairman and CEO of Citi Cards North America stated:
"We're excited by this new relationship, and the prospect of providing our customers and prospective customers with the superior benefits and services these new cards will have. As always, we're committed to exceptional customer service, and by issuing some of our most popular card products on the American Express Network, we're offering customers many of the features and benefits they want in a credit card."
Peter Godfrey, President of American Express Global Network, added:
"This partnership brings together two highly successful and internationally recognized brands for the benefit of all cardmembers looking for high quality products and service. We are delighted that Citibank is providing consumers with a credit card on the American Express Network that allows them to experience the best of both worlds."
Citi American Express Cards set to be available on January 15, 2006 are:
• The Citi Platinum American Express Card, a no-annual fee card that offers points on purchases through the ThankYou Network, Citi's no-fee rewards program featuring a variety of merchandise, travel and gift cards at leading retailers and restaurants. Cardmembers will have access to hard to find tickets to shows, concerts and sporting events. A 12 month introductory offer provides a 0% APR on eligible balance transfers.
• The Citi Dividend American Express Card enables cardmembers to earn 5% cash back on purchases at supermarkets, drug stores and gas stations; 1% cash back on other purchases and eligible cash advances; and cash back on eligible balance transfers. Cardmembers also pay no annual fee.
• The Citi/AAdvantage American Express Card allows cardmembers to earn one American Airlines AAdvantage® mile for every dollar they spend on purchases - up to 60,000 miles per calendar year.
• The no-annual fee Citi PremierPass American Express Card offers cardmembers one ThankYou Point for every three miles flown on any airline and one ThankYou Point for every dollar spent on purchases - up to 100,000 ThankYou Points per year (50,000 of which can be earned for miles flown).
• The Citi Diamond Preferred Rewards American Express Card offers cardmembers 5 ThankYou Points on purchases made at supermarkets, drug stores and gas stations and 1 ThankYou Point for every dollar spent on other purchases during their first year of cardmembership. After the first year, cardmembers will earn one ThankYou Point on all eligible purchases.
This alliance will result in huge marketing opportunities for both banks. Citibank is the third U.S. bank to offer cards on the American Express network. More such alliances are likely to occur later this year.

The Berenstain Bears and the Shaggy Little Pony (Hardcover)
Not currently in the store – Usually ships in 1-5 days
Meet Oscar the shaggy little pony. Oscar is slow and steady and he has come to live at Farmer Bens stable. Brother and Sister offer to help care for Oscar in return for riding lessons from Farmer Ben. Before long, Oscar and the cubs are ready to enter the local riding show.
Beginning readers will delight in learning about life on the farm and horseback riding in this new adventure from the Berenstains.
About the Author
Stan and Jan Berenstain were already successful cartoonists for magazines and adult humor books when they began writing children's books. The first story starring the bear family, The Big Honey Hunt, appeared in 1962. Since then, more than 250 Berenstain Bears books have been published, and more than 260 million copies have been sold. What began as an idea sparked by their young sons' interest in children's books has become over the years arguably the best-selling children's book series ever.
Since their inception, the Berenstain Bears stories have expanded to include picture books, beginning readers, and chapter bookseven a hit TV show on PBS. Writing and illustrating the books has become a Berenstain family affair. Mike joined with his parents as a creative team in the late 1980s. The Bear family has expanded over the years as well. Sister Bear arrived in 1974, and baby Honey joined the family in 2000.
Since Stan's death at age eighty-two in 2005, Jan and Mike have continued to write and illustrate wonderful new adventures for Mama, Papa, Brother, Sister, and Honey Bear. They live in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, which looks a lot like Bear Country.

About the ManufacturerIsokinetics began in 1987 with one sales rep in Arkansas, selling home physical therapy equipment to rural clinics that the "big companies" did not bother calling on. They formed a philosophy of always treating the customer like they like to be treated, courteously and promptly, and offering products at a fair price. It was those customers that returned again and again and helped them grow into a company with a direct sales force serving 9 states in the Midwest, a comprehensive print catalog, and a web site selling at discount prices nationwide. Even though they are growing bigger, they never want to treat their customers like they're a "big company."

Heart Rate Monitor function does not work!
Addison from Amherst, MA– Verified Buyer
Heart rate monitor function does not work. It worked right out of the box, but hasn't worked on subsequent attempts. After getting into the mode, probe is touched I wait and nothing happens. Eventually goes back to clock mode. All other functions seem to work well.

Tindell finally home in Newhall after four-month ordeal.
After nearly four months in the Grossman Burn Center in Sherman Oaks, Jim Tindell is finally home.
The caretaker at Heads Up Therapy on Horseback was severely burned when the Buckweed Fire seared through Bouquet Canyon, destroying much of the charity's property and threatening its horses.
As the flames approached, Tindell sent his wife and children to safety and went back to save the horses. After herding them into a sand exercise area, Tindell ran through a wall of flames, scorching his face and hands.
He was originally scheduled to come home Feb. 8, but doctors at the burn center found infections on his face and stomach and reversed their discharge orders. Despite the loss of two fingers and intense scarring, Tindell's spirits are high and he's glad to be home.
"What was the first thing I did when I got home?" he mused. "Hugged my wife."
He faces a lot of "directed" physical therapy, aimed at helping him do the things he did before the fire, such as dressing and taking care of himself. His commute for therapy will be shorter, as it will be done at Henry Mayo Hospital.
All the horses from the ranch were spared in the fire and another animal thought to be a victim is recovering alongside Tindell – the ranch cat, Tiger Lily, which has undergone its own set of treatments from a local vet and is recuperating at Tindell's Newhall home.
"All the kids knew her," Tindell said. "They'll be happy to hear she's OK."
Tindell couldn't thank the community enough for their support during his difficult recovery.
"They made all the difference in the world," he said.
A fundraising bowl-a-thon originally scheduled last Saturday had to be cancelled when Santa Clarita Lanes lost power. A new date has not yet been set, but Tindell is looking forward to being there to cheer on the bowlers.

MOSCOW (AP) -- South Ossetia's government says a car bomb exploded at the Russian military's headquarters in the separatist region, killing six people and wounding four.
Friday's blast comes amid persistent tension following Russia's war with Georgia over South Ossetia.
The separatist region's press department says a car exploded near a building where leaders of the Russian peacekeeping force were located.
The department says the car had been confiscated in an ethnic Georgian village after weapons were found in it.
Interfax news agency reports the dead are members of the force.
Russian forces are to withdraw from territory surrounding South Ossetia later this month but remain inside the region itself.

The Last Sunset
After sending my editor the final edit of my memoir, "They Only Eat Their Husbands," I realize that some stories that didn't make the final cut still have a lot to say to women. Allow me to share with you a slice of wisdom from the women elders of the Alaska Native village of Barrow, in my new blog post: "The Last Sunset." http://girlstrektoo.com/blog
I loved it!
What a great piece and thanks for posting it! I look forward to reading your book!
The land of midnight sun and endless darkness
I was lucky enough to visit Barrow in the summertime, when the sun never sets and ice on the Arctic Ocean has just broke. Thank you for sharing this glimpse into life in Barrow at a completely different time... a time of complete darkness and desolation. Amazing place and even more amazing people!
Welcome :)
Your journey sounds very adventureous and courageous! I look forward to reading more about it.
I really like that you have a passion for creative writing and expression for girls. Can you give me any tips on writing prompts or ideas of girls who have been abused (physically and/or sexually)?
Until then, much peace and love!

DRESSING UP: Party planner Bronson van Wyck is getting into the gourmet food business. Friends and clients received his first product — a Dijon mustard vinaigrette — this holiday season, and it appears there is more to come. "I'm trying to figure out ways to help people entertain better and more often," says van Wyck, "which means each item needs to be easy, convenient and really delicious. I've been asked to bring that dressing to friends' houses who have had it at mine, so I thought that it'd be a nice gift."
For now, van Wyck's distribution is limited to his mailing list. But those on it should keep their eyes out for the next installment: a variation on César Ritz's classic Caesar salad dressing.

Impact Your World
Academics vs Sports: In other words, Brain vs Brawn
Statistics show that American public schools have some of the highest numbers of high school dropouts per year. Why was this? I delved further: Private schools and colleges which give less importance to athletic events and "fun" end up having a greater percentage of their students graduate than those whose football teams or basketball teams are district champions. The results were clear. Academics or sports cannot exist without the other being compromised. So here's the real question: which is more important? Should schools focus more on creating the best athletes or the best scholars? Now, by reading the first paragraph and witnessing my reaction to my principal's words, you can probably take an accurate guess on what my stance is. So, here we go.
Now, consider that there are 5000 students that attend a high school. This school is one that passionately encourages sports and regards academics as somewhat secondary. In such an influential environment, kids are naturally inclined to do what they can to be the most popular, or most socially accepted individual. Therefore, out of these 5000 kids, about 4000 will join a school sports team, be it football, basketball, tennis, etc. That is 80% of the school's student body. Here's the problem with the situation: Being a very competitive athletic environment, our hypothetical high school will reward the most talented sportsmen and induce envy in the ones that are not so competent. So, the less athletic individuals will to an extent start ignoring their grades and work harder and harder to be that ONE star on the baseball or football field. Naturally, their grades will start to suffer. But who cares, right? they're on the school's varsity sports teams. Well, this attitude can be quite detrimental when college admissions roll in. Now, back to numbers. Out of the 4000 "athletes" in school, I would approximate roughly 50 to be genetically predisposed for the sport that they are in (Even this is actually a stretch). So, they will naturally be receiving scholarships to their colleges or choice via their athletic talents. Meanwhile, remember the 1000 kids who did not try out for a sport? They will be attending their colleges of choice because of their unbroken attention towards their grades. So, what about the 3,950 kids who are fairly good at sports and have less than satisfactory grades? They happen to be the jacks of all trades but the masters of none. Therefore, in an athletically superior school, 21% of students ended up going to good colleges, while 79% of them didn't even know what they were going to do with their futures. And this scenario takes into account the assumption that no kids drop out of school. Just imagine! Now, realistically, the conditions wouldn't be this drastic, but they would follow a similar pattern, which they do already.
You'll probably ask, "Well, wouldn't it be just as bad in a school that focuses solely on academics? What about the kids who are not into studying?" Consider this: School is not the only place from which a child can acquire expertise in sports. There are thousands of teams and clubs that are extracurricular, which will be glad to entertain any student who is interested in pursuing athletics. However, school is the ONLY place which will give students a competent, regular education. Students will be immersed in a first class academic education, while any aspiring athletes can seek coaching during their afterschool hours. In the current situation, sports are taking up students' time in school and after school. This leaves no time for attention towards studying for exams, tests, and quizzes which are vital to students' curricular success. If all schools work in line with the advice presented above, college admissions won't be nearly as depressing. Kids will have the necessary academic credentials to attend good colleges and some athletes can add sports to their already stunning resumes.

The Owls passed up the chance to do that last Saturday when they were trounced 5-1 at Exeter but the Jamaica international put that down to "a bad day at the office" and is confident Alan Irvine's side will bounce back at Prenton Park on Boxing Day.
Johnson told the club's official website: "We'll come back against Tranmere because we disappointed ourselves and the coaching staff, so we're looking forward to it.
"It was really good against Bristol (Rovers) and we thought we could do the same (at Exeter) but in football sometimes you come and play and think you're going to win, but sometimes it doesn't happen.
"We just need to keep our heads up at Tranmere and get the win. It would be great to get the win and go top. It would be great for the fans and a pleasure for me because it's been a long time since we were top of the league."

HEICO's Alex De Gunten Receives Industry Leading Award
HOLLYWOOD, Fla., Nov. 18, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HEICO Corporation (NYSE:HEI.A) and (NYSE:HEI) is proud to announce that Alexandre (Alex) de Gunten, Business Development Officer of its Flight Support Group, received the 2013 Federico Block Award.
Presented by Mr. Enrique Borgo Bustamante, former-President of TACA and former-Vice President of El Salvador, the prestigious award recognizes outstanding leadership in the advancement and integration of the commercial aviation industry in Latin America. The award was presented at the 10th Annual ALTA Airline Leaders Forum last week in Cancun with over 500 Latin American and Caribbean commercial aviation leaders, including over 40 airline CEO's and Board Members in attendance, and is awarded to an individual who launches a successful new business; builds cooperation across the region; introduces progressive business practices; supports the growth of the industry by creating conditions for success; or goes beyond the call of duty to advance the interests of the aviation industry in Latin America and the Caribbean.
Alex de Gunten was recognized for transforming the Latin American and Caribbean Air Transport Association (ALTA) into a powerful and well-recognized voice for commercial aviation in the region. In the course of a decade, de Gunten redefined the role and contributions of the association on every dimension – membership, finances, events, awards, publications and, perhaps most importantly – advocacy and industry-wide impact. Under his direction, the association had a substantial impact on issues affecting its membership across three primary domains – safety, efficiency, and the environment – with measurable and tangible results in each. As a result of his tireless efforts, persistency, resourcefulness, passionate advocacy, Alex de Gunten has shaped ALTA into the powerful voice and vehicle for the industry that it is today.De Gunten added, "This award is a recognition of the great commitment and efforts of the entire ALTA organization, member airlines, and industry leaders. I am very proud and blessed to join the distinguished list of past honorees, and look forward to continue to promote a more efficient and competitive industry in my new role at HEICO."

Exacerbation of Asthma Research
NIOSH Leads Research on Workplace Exacerbation of Asthma
A 2003 statement of the American Thoracic Society (ATS) included the observation that asthma exacerbated by conditions at work was likely to be responsible for as much illness and loss of productivity as asthma caused by work. However, workplace exacerbation of asthma (WEA) had received little attention from clinicians, researchers, and public health officials. More research on the frequency and causes of WEA was needed to guide preventive actions. Dr. Paul Henneberger and others in the Respiratory Disease Research Program (RDRP) at NIOSH recognized this need several years ago and took action. Initially, they conducted descriptive studies of WEA by collaborating with research institutions in Maine and Colorado, and by summarizing data collected by NIOSH-supported SENSOR surveillance programs in California, Massachusetts, Michigan, and New Jersey. Then, they successfully competed for National Occupational Research Agenda (NORA) funds that supported a 5-year study of WEA. This NORA research project also benefited from additional financial support from the National Center for Environmental Health. As of December 2010, the RDRP has produced more publications on WEA than any other research center in the world, with 9 articles in peer-reviewed journals, two book chapters, and an online educational unit (see below). The findings from several of these articles indicate that WEA is common, occurring in approximately one-fourth of working adults with asthma. Also, WEA cases experience many of the same adverse health consequences as individuals with asthma caused by work, and have a lower quality of life than adults who have asthma that is not related to work. Additional research and communication efforts are needed to prevent WEA. Dr. Paul Henneberger chairs the ATS Work-Exacerbated Asthma Committee that is developing an official ATS statement on this topic.

- The Castle - It had incredible views of the city and showed an incredible contrast in the city. I was able to see the Old Town, the New Town and the communist part. 40% of the town was destroyed and replaced with modern buildings e.g. The UFO Bridge. It was also communist up until 1976, so the dull communist buildings have been painted to try and brighten the city, but now it just looks like a lego city.
- Church of St. Elizabeth AKA The Blue Church or The Smurf Church. The interior and exteriors are both blue, the church was very Gaudi like and there was a school beside it that was also by the same architect. Contrastingly, opposite the church is a dull and abandoned communist hospital.
- St. Martins Cathedral
- Euroviso Gallerioa - a marvellous giant shopping centre.
- The various statues around the city.

Separating Pink Slime fact from fiction
BEAUMONT - by Lindsey Kovacevich - Most of us eat ground beef without giving it a second thought.
Now, because of two words-pink slime-many of us are thinking twice. Even though the Food and Drug Administration says the meat filler isn't dangerous to your health, some retailers like Jack's Pack-It are choosing to avoid it.
Meat turned into ground beef. Do you really know what's in it?
"Some of the retailers use pre-ground meat and it comes in a tube," said John Blanda, co-owner of Jack's Pak-It. "It's USDA approved. They grind the meats. You can put fillers in there. It may be something like beef hearts."
"It's sold in the industry in little tubes, pink tubes," said Mary Ellen Vivrett, Clinical Nutrition Manager for Baptist hospitals.
That's where the name pink slime comes from. It's gaining a lot of attention.
"You have the retailers that use the tubed ground meat," said Blanda. "They do it as a time saver."
Blanda says Jack's Pack-It doesn't use pink slime in its meats.
He says there's a problem when butchers use fillers.
"The beef hearts, they won't last as long as the chuck," said Blanda. "The separation occurs when the temperature varies and if it's in the case a little longer."
Jack's Pak-It uses what the owner calls a shoulder clod and no fillers.
"Price-wise, I don't see why anyone does it anymore. What you save in price you have to pay labor for someone to grind it. Might as well grind one single piece of meat."
But the USDA says if you do eat meat with pink slime, it's perfectly safe.
"We would have had some complications or notice of it at an earlier time," said Vivrett.
She says there always seems to be a new scare or fad in the food world.
"I think if we would concentrate on our healthy lifestyle and how we're eating and the food we are choosing. Concentrating on that instead."
Quick fixes. Scares like pink slime. They'll always come and go.
Experts say the focus should remain on incorporating healthier foods in your diet.
A meat processing plant in California has filed for bankruptcy because of nationwide criticism over pink slime.
If you want meat without pink slime, Jacks Pak-It is an option. Or ask your local store if it uses tubed ground beef. That's the kind that has pink slime.

I Can't Count
I'm 3lbs heaver then I though I was :cry: all because I was weighing in stone and converting to lbs but today I decided to switch my scales to lbs and I'm 163lbs and I thought I was 160lbs. I am 10lbs heavier then I was last September, why do I keep messing up. Yesterday was a near perfect DD at 600 calories but I go on holidays the 12th May will I really be able to shrink my tummy enough to wear that bikini I bought. I don't feel so sure today :dunno:
Awweee Majella!!! May 12 is still over a month away, you have plenty of time!!!! The 3lbs may just be a normal JUDDD bounce!!! Seriously I am a firm believer in the tape measurer. Measure yourself and go by that for 2 weeks!!! You will see inches go before lbs do!!! I have lost a total of 8 inches since March 15th but my scale is playing games with my eyes. I hit my own low of 175 then the thing spiked up to 182 on me. But I was still losing the inches so I just kicked the scale slightly and threw it back to the corner it sits lol!!!!!
Dont get down on yourself!! Your doing great so far!!!! JUDDD isnt a quick fix, but I think in the long run its a better fix. Because its something the average person can stick to for life!! Keep posting in we will get you through til May for your holiday!!!!
Don't feel low Majella, it is only a number, your shape isn't bigger.
Just keep up with you regular rotations and the weight will go. Think positive.
But you've lost the same percentage in stones as you did before you did the math, so the accomplishment is just as great.
That sounds clearer in my head than it looks. I hope you get what I mean. :p
:console: Majella. Those conversions are heck.
Keep walking (it makes doggie happy and have a few other benefits too). Keep JUDDDing. Yes, you really do have time to make a substantive change in your tum before your holiday!
:shake: Thanks everyone :love:, Keria I see what you mean it's still 3lbs off. I've not given up but I did eat less on my UD yesterday and rocking today's DD I think the appetite suppressant effect has kicked in. But still what a shock to see my numbers! I took my measurement about a month ago so I will try to find them and compare. One thing I noticed in the bath last night was new stretch marks on my upper arms :D So something is going right and my OH said I have a higher muscle content in my body then when they last did my bloods!

Possible to create "file rules" similar to email rules
Hi guys,
Ive been searching around for a way to get files to copy themselves from a certain folder into another one IF they're below a certain size. I was wondering if anyone knows of a program or script that I can schedule to do this for me.
Basically heres the problem: When I download work it goes to the downloads folder where I want it. I use dropbox and sometime I save work into the downloads folder assuming its in the dropbox folder and will sync to the cloud, only when I open my work computer I realise that the file is not present. I want to know if i can set files below a certain size (say 50MB, so I dont get huge downloaded videos and apps syncing) to copy into a temporary location in my dropbox folder as soon as they are saved or changed.

Moving files based on size and moving files based on changes to them are very different problems, the former being the easiest to solve. You can write a batch file to run every x amount of time (via task scheduler) that will scan the directory and copy files if they are smaller than a certain size. You might create a file called "size.bat" within the same directory
@echo off cls setlocal set maxsize=52428800 FOR /F "usebackq delims=" %%A in (`dir /a-d-h /b`) do ( set size=%%~zA if %size% LSS %maxsize% ( copy "%%A" "C:\Dropbox" ) )
You can then use Task Scheduler to set up this batch file to run at whatever interval you'd like to transfer the files.
The latter issue of copying files based on changes is a much more involved issue that I don't currently have the time to address, but it's doable with the same concepts and coding I've shown you here.

Kentucky takes care of business
With VIDEO report
|Kentucky forward Anthony Davis (23) reacts during the second half of an NCAA Final Four semifinal college basketball tournament game against Louisville Saturday, March 31, 2012, in New Orleans. Kentucky won 69-61. (AP Photo/David J. Phillip)
NEW ORLEANS — Kentucky owns the Bluegrass State. Now it can concentrate on the rest of the country
Anthony Davis and top-seeded Kentucky will play for the national title Monday night after finally putting away pesky Louisville 69-61 in the Final Four on Saturday night.
It will be Kentucky's first appearance in the title game since winning a seventh NCAA crown back in 1998 and gives coach John Calipari another shot at the title that has eluded him. The Wildcats (37-2) will face the winner of Kansas-Ohio State.
As the final seconds ticked down, Davis pointed to the court and screamed twice "This is my stage!"
Yes, yes, it is.
With Davis, everybody's player of the year, leading a star-studded roster, Kentucky was the top seed in the tournament and the heavy favorite to cut down the nets when the whole tournament was done. And Calipari wouldn't let his
See KENTUCKY, Page 6C
young players consider anything else, saying repeatedly this was "just another game."
But playing in-state rival Louisville (30-10) is never just that, and the Cardinals made Kentucky work deep into the second half to grind this victory out.
Louisville outrebounded Kentucky 40-33, including a whopping 19-6 advantage on the offensive glass — the sole reason the Cardinals were able to make a game of this.
"I just said John, `I'll be pulling for you, bring the trophy back home to Kentucky,"' Louisville coach Rick Pitino said. "Sometimes there's a lot of talk about these guys fighting, dialysis, there's also really a lot of people that get along. ... For those that have brains, they root for each other.
"We like their basketball team; we hope they bring it home for the state."
Bigger, bulkier and with the 19-year-old freshman Davis having a wider wingspan than some small airplanes, the Wildcats looked like playground bullies as they pushed Louisville around on their way to a 13-point lead early in the second half. But the Cardinals know a thing about rallies after coming from 11 points down to beat Florida in last weekend's West Regional final, and they sure made Kentucky sweat.
Russ Smith made back-to-back buckets to start a 15-3 run, and Peyton Siva capped it with a 3-pointer from NBA range that tied the game at 49 with 9:11 to play. But Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, who played just 23 minutes because of foul trouble, made back-to-back buckets to give the Wildcats some breathing room.
After Siva made a pair of free throws, Terrence Jones scored on a jumper and Darius Miller drilled a 3 — only Kentucky's second of the game — to give the Wildcats control for good.
"I'm proud of this team. They're coming together," Calipari said. "They've taken on shots and runs like Louisville did today, and they've held their own, so I'm proud of them."
Just to make sure Louisville didn't get any wild notions about another late comeback, Kidd-Gilchrist threw down a monstrous dunk with 1:05 to play that had Kentucky fans on their feet and assistant coaches from Kansas and Ohio State scrambling to try and find a way to stop this juggernaut.
Kentucky shot a dazzling 57 percent — yes, that's right — with Davis leading the way. He missed just one of his eight shots and finished with 18 points and 14 rebounds. Miller added 13 points, and Doron Lamb had 10. Kidd-Gilchrist had nine, all in the second half.
"We're one game closer to our dream and our goals," Davis said.
Siva led the Cardinals with 11 points, and Gorgui Dieng had 12 rebounds.
The Kentucky-Louisville rivalry caused tempers to flare even in December when, in the grand scheme of things, games really don't mean much. Heck, it took government intervention just to get the two schools to play on a regular basis back in the 1980s.
With the NCAA title game on the line, the latest skirmish in basketball's version of the civil war so divided the small hoop-crazed state that senior citizens actually came to fisticuffs and made for must-see TV. The game was such a big deal that No. 1 Kentucky fan Ashley Judd wasn't even the biggest celeb in the house, with Jay-Z taking a prime seat behind the Kentucky bench.
"It's our fans; our fans are great to us," Davis said. "Our fans travel a long way. We want to go out here and give them a show and give them what they want, which is a national championship."
Bragging rights in the state is sure a nice way to start.
Kentucky is 19-11 since the teams resumed playing in 1983-84, with the Wildcats winning four straight, including a 69-62 victory at Rupp Arena on Dec. 31 — almost the exact score as Saturday night's win.
"They made runs, and we made our runs. That's what coach always says," Jones said. "We never get rattled."
The Wildcats know they're talented — there are three, maybe as many as five NBA lottery picks on the Kentucky roster — but they play without ego or cockiness, choosing instead to let their superior play overwhelm their opponents.
That was certainly the case with Louisville.
The Cardinals had skidded into the Big East tournament with four losses in their last six games, including back-to-back defeats to end the regular season. Pitino told his players they could either go home after the first week of the tournament or they could do something special, their choice.
The Cardinals chose the latter, ripping off four wins in four days to win the Big East tournament and ousting No. 1 seed Michigan State in the West Regional semifinals. Then came that comeback against rough-and-tumble Florida.
Those games hardened the Cardinals, and they promised they weren't simply happy to reach the Final Four. But they sure looked it early on, getting off to a slow, sloppy start. It didn't help that Dieng looked petrified of Davis and Siva was playing at hyperspeed, a pace Pitino has been trying to get him to tone down all year.
When they tried to go inside, Davis was less forgiving than a bouncer at a Hollywood club. When the Cardinals went outside, the Wildcats swarmed and forced them to take off-balance shots. Meanwhile, on the other end, Kentucky scored at will, repeatedly picking on Siva and Dieng.
But there's a reason Pitino has taken three teams to the Final Four. He pulled out every trick he had, switching strategies, begging the refs for calls and finding a way — finally — to calm his team down.
`'Any time you don't know whether a team is better offensively or defensively, you know you've got a great basketball team," Pitino said. "And Anthony Davis is incredible."
