It's ok, we're not them.
Corrigan Brown
Recently a certain *ahem* person *ahem* has just PTO'd a party.
The CAF political party has been taken over by Jacobi from the famous PTO'er himself, Rolo. Part of me wants to say "How does it feel?" but the better side of me is expressing the wrongness of this decision
Whatever happened to the basis of "Two wrongs never make a right?"
I'm sorry Jacobi and CPF members that supported this decision, but I cannot get on board with what you have decided to do today.
Can't say I'm not happy to see it happen.
Rolo did try to PTO 3 parties today, after all. He should have figured that someone would come and knock him down a peg like he has done to other parties for so long eventually.
I'm sure it was more than just CPF members helping... as far as I can tell, CPF only told people to help UPC from PTO.
Rolo made far too many enemies for this not to happen. Repeated PTO attempts of eCanada's top parties was bound to get him eventually.
I am not sorry about it, when Rolo is on the receiving end of anything he will cry "laws, laws laws!" but he will only ever use this to his own advantage. He doesn't care about rules unless they work in his favor.
Let him lose his stolen goods.
It is the way this game is designed to work sadly. What are you suppose to do to defeat a PTO? You pretty much can't unless you mobilize a crap-ton of people to strategically vote to stop it. Which is just a reverse PTO. Since vote totals are published right after someone votes it makes it easy to figure out who is winning and where votes should go. This is a game is designed for the guy/gal who spends the most cash to play around.
P. Magee
@P. Magee
It is also a game of numbers. If one Party is being PTO'd and other Parties lend some votes like we had for the UPC, then the ATO becomes stronger than the PTO is.
Rolo didn't have the manpower to take us down, he was facing the UPC, CPF, CW and the UFC working together to beat him, and he was being PTO'd in all 3 of his own parties. there aren't enough 2 clickers in eCanada for him to bribe to beat that.
I don't think Rolo really put in any effort this election. He was ready to step back a long time ago but people want to keep the Rolo phenomenon alive so they have something to fight against.
eCan will just return to it's traditional infighting and petty bitching once their common enemy fades away.
i dont see how people are to blame for keeping rolo alive. his apologists and fellow lulzers are easily as culpable

Lynchburg, VA - If you're looking for a new place to workout in Lynchburg, a new Express YMCA is coming to the Hill City.
Crews are working to transform an old sporting good store off Old Forest Road into a new workout facility. The new "Y" will be located in a shopping center at the intersection of Old Forest Road and Kings Drive.
The eight thousand square foot gym will have cardio equipment, a free weights area, exercise bikes, and a flex and core studio. There will also be on site personal training.
Officials at the "Y" say a lot of people have expressed interest in having a gym in the Old Forest Road area.
The Downtown "Y" Branch Director Jay Parker says the location will make it easier for more people to get in shape.
"This would give people the opportunity to get in here, and get a quick workout or get an hour work out. The convenience will make it easier, and there is a lot of parking here," said Parker.
And, if you're a member of the Downtown or Jamerson YMCA your membership will be good at new Express YMCA as well. Officials hope to open it in January.

(CBS/AP) SAN BERNARDINO, Calif. - San Bernardino officials filed an emergency petition for Chapter 9 bankruptcy in response to the $45.8 million budget shortfall the city faces this year, making official a move the City Council approved last month.
Interim City Manager Andrea Travis-Miller said Tuesday's filing won't affect essential service to the community, and there are no immediate reductions or changes planned.
San Bernardino's bankruptcy frustrates residents
Bankruptcy-bound Calif. city under investigation
Travis-Miller said city officials are working on a plan for the city's operational budget during bankruptcy, and once the plan is complete reductions may occur.
Travis-Miller hopes to submit a plan for the City Council's consideration within the next three weeks.
The city of 210,000 people declared a fiscal emergency July 18, becoming the third California city to declare insolvency this year. In June, Stockton and Mammoth Lakes also declared bankruptcy.
(Watch Tracy's story at left)
"We have a host of our residents who are not working, not paying taxes, don't have disposable income so they are not shopping," Mayor Patrick Morris told Tracy. "That's a problem for us."
Morris, however, was optimistic that online retailer Amazon was about to open a big warehouse in San Bernardino, which was expected to create 1,000 jobs.

The silver products is especially welcomed by the old for its various kinds, complicate technique, delicate making and new patterns and was rewarded the merit products for ethic groups using in 1987, YunNan.

This post was written by Tom Ewer, a regular contributor for MyWifeQuitHerJob.com!
When starting out in business, you just want to make some money.
Your priorities typically revolve around establishing a customer base and making some sales. Getting to that point is an awesome achievement in itself — many businesses fail before they reach "critical mass". But getting there doesn't mean that you should rest on your laurels.
In reality, at that point you have done the hard work — you should now be in a position to reap the rewards.
Because you have an established customer base, you have something to work with. The smallest tweaks can make a big difference to your bottom line.
Related: 4 Tweaks We Made To Our Business That Drastically Improved Sales
Why "Tweaking" Can be Such a Good Thing
The key to most businesses is customers. For the most part, the more of them you have, the better. The reason for this is twofold:
- More customers should mean greater turnover and higher profits
- More customers means more opportunities to make more money
The logic here is simple. Say your business attracts 1,000 paying customers per calendar month, and that each spends an average of $10.
Finding an additional 500 customers in the short term might be a tough call, but if you could raise a customer's average spend to $15, you would achieve the same effect in terms of turnover. And potentially, you could do so overnight.
How I Tweak for Positive Gains
Examples of how businesses tweak to raise their turnover can be found everywhere. Once you start looking for it, you'll see it all around you.
Take the freelance writing guide that I recently released as an example. I would be the first to admit that the current sales page (which may well have changed by the time you read this) isn't that great.
I cobbled it together pre-launch and haven't touched it since. I soon plan to start optimizing and split testing the page, which will undoubtedly result in a higher conversion rate. I will be attracting no more customers, but I can expect my turnover to increase.
Related: How To Prevent Your Small Business From Stagnating
The whole process of optimizing may sound rather intimidating but it doesn't need to be if you break it down into simple steps. Take my guide for example — in optimizing the sales page I will focus on the following:
- Pain/desire points: i.e. what will drive people to purchase?
- Social proof: can I incorporate more testimonials from well-known bloggers? Can I create positive case studies from people who have already read the guide?
- Price: selling something for less does not mean that it will make you less money.
My guide presents another example — my email list of purchasers. I recently added an autoresponder message to this email list featuring a selection of my favorite books relating to freelance writing. My customers receive a useful resource and I can make additional money via affiliate links.
Writing the email took perhaps 20 minutes, but will make me money for the weeks and months to come that would have otherwise been left on the table. Since adding this autoresponder message a couple of weeks ago it has already generated five sales, from which I take a commission.
Speaking of affiliate income, another example of small tweaks for big gains can be found on my blog. Its "business model" relies upon affiliate income via products and services I use and endorse. The more people I direct to the "money pages" on my blog, the better.
Recently I added a Resources button to the sidebar which appears on every page. Clicking the button takes you directly to my Resources page, which is chock full of recommended products and affiliate links. This simple tweak only took me five minutes, but visits to my resources page as a percentage of total visits to my site has increased by 272% as a result.
Do You Tweak?
You can't really write a "how to" for tweaking in general — as you might be able to see from the three examples above, there are a near-unlimited number of ways in which you can optimize your business to boost your sales.
I haven't even mentioned the concept of making tweaks to increase your customer base, as opposed to increasing average spend. The sky really is the limit.
With that in mind, are you making the most of your business' existing customer base, or do you think that you might be leaving money on the table? If you have your own examples of tweaks you have made to boost your bottom line, I'd love to read about them below.
If on the other hand you haven't been tweaking, what are you waiting for?

March 4-5, 1914
03-04-1914 Volume OD - Pages 497-511 Reno, Nevada March 4, 1914 The Board of Regents met at 10 o'clock A.M. Wednesday, March 4, 1914. Present: Regents Reid, Codd, Henderson, O'Brien, Pratt; and President Stubbs. The minutes of the meeting held February 6th were read and approved. President Stubbs read his monthly report, which was ordered filed in the President's Report Book. Upon motion of Regent Henderson, seconded by Regent Codd, the communication from the Comptroller, under date of March 4th, was ordered received and copied in the Regents' minutes. It appears herewith: To the Honorable, the Board of Regents and to J. E. Stubbs, President University of Nevada Gentlemen: Upon my recent trip to Carson City I had a short conference with the Attorney General relative to the bonds in the 90,000 Acre University Grant. On February 9th the State Board of Investment passed a reso- lution authorizing the transfer of $16,000 in 5% Nevada bonds from the 72 Section University Grant to the 90,000 Acre Grant and 52,000 in 5% Nevada bonds from the Permanent School fund. This resolution was referred to the Attorney General for his legal opinion. The reasons for this transfer are well known to the Board and were set out in some detail in my statement to the Board of Investment under date of February 9th, copy of which is attached hereto. The Attorney General advises me that he is afraid he cannot give an opinion authorizing the transfer for several reasons: 1st. All the bonds were printed specially for the particular fund from which the money was borrowed; 2nd. All the permanent records of the State would have to be changed in accordance with the transfer; 3rd. He feels that it might be better to go before the next Legislature and ask for the transfer by Legislative Act. He further asks that this Board write him a letter over the signature of the Chairman of the Board stating our grounds for asking for the transfer, in order to have the records at Carson complete. He will then answer the letter and the next move will be up to the Board of Regents. Considering the very grave importance of this matter, not only to the University, but to the State of Nevada as well, I would suggest that it might be possible to arrange a friendly suit in order to have the matter adjusted at once. The action of the Legislature in amending the law authorizing the State loan, so that it was the intention of the Legisla- ture to have this matter adjusted immediately, and surely the fact that a State Board failed or neglected to carry out the intent of the law, should not be made to hold against the University. The Board should take some definite action in this matter at once to be in shape for the government auditor in June this year. This matter has been under consideration since Septem- ber 1912, without any particular headway having been made. Very truly yours, C. H. Gorman Comptroller The Chairman of the Board was to write a letter with respect to these bonds to the Attorney General, and when the answer is re- ceived from the Attorney General, copies of these two letters are to be send to Mr. Henderson, who will write his opinion. Upon the recommendation of President Stubbs, Dr. Mark F. Boyd was appointed Associate Professor of Bacteriology and Hygiene and assistant in the State Hygienic Laboratory at a salary of $200 per month commencing June 1, 1914. Upon motion of Regent O'Brien, seconded by Regent Pratt, the resignation of Dr. O. P. Johnstone as Associate Professor of Bateriology and Physiology and assistant in the State Hygienic Laboratory, was accepted to be effective June 1, 1914. Upon motion of Regent Codd, seconded by Regent Henderson, the President was authorized to complete plans for the Summer School for Teachers to begin about June 22nd. There is $100 available for this purpose. Upon motion of Regent Codd, seconded by Regent O'Brien, the recommendation of President Stubbs that Dr. George Ordahl be granted a leave of absence for 6 months from July 1 to December 31, 1914, on full salary for the months of July and August, and half salary for the 4 months ending December 31, 1914, was ap- proved. Upon motion of Regent Codd, seconded by Regent Henderson, the calendar of the University as submitted by the President was approved. The first semester of the year 1914-15 will begin August 24 and end December 23; the second semester will begin January 4, 1915 and end May 12. The appointment of Miss Florence Mc Gavic by President Stubbs as assistant to the Comptroller in his office at $65.00 per month from February 15, 1914 was approved. Upon motion of Regent Henderson, seconded by Regent Codd, the Regents agreed to take 1000 copies of the article on the Uni- versity and Diversity of Nevada, which is to be published in the May number of the Sunset Magazine, bound in pamphlet form and to be used as advertising material, at a cost not to ex- ceed $100. Upon motion of Regent Pratt, seconded by Regent O'Brien, the bulletin containing the proceedings of the Safety First Con- ference was authorized printed by the State Printing Office; pro- vided they were willing to do the work, the University would fur- nish the stock which would cost not in excess of $100. Upon motion of Regent Codd, seconded by Regent O'Brien, the re- port of the Athletic Committee regarding the proposed work for the Department of Physical Education for Men, as submitted by the President, was approved, and an expenditure of $300 was authorized for two showers and additional apparatus. Upon motion of Regent Henderson, seconded by Regent Codd, the President of the University and the Chairman of the Board of Regents was appointed a committee with full power to act to take charge of the planting of trees in the rear of Lincoln Hall and in front of Manzanita Hall, consulting Mr. Lynch when necessary. Upon motion of Regent Codd, seconded by Regent O'Brien, the President was authorized to get his best material and have the high schools of Nevada and contributing counties in California visited and accredited to this University as far as possible, at a cost not to exceed $500. Upon motion of Regent Henderson, seconded by Regent Codd, the President was authorized to have the roof of the Mackay Mining building repaired and painted according to the recommendation contained in his report. Upon motion of Regent Codd, seconded by Regent Henderson, all orders of the Board of Regents relating to the printing of letter heads with the Professors' names omitted was rescinded. The printing of all letter heads must first be submitted to the President for his approval. Upon motion of Regent Henderson, seconded by Regent Codd, the Reno Regents and Secretary Taylor were instructed to confer with Senator James Gault with reference to sharing with the Regents the expense of improving the banks of the Orr Ditch from the pond to a point just east of the new bridge. Upon motion of Regent Codd, seconded by Regent Pratt, the Presi- dent was authorized to proceed to purchase a seismograph. Upon motion of Regent Codd, seconded by Regent Pratt and Regent Henderson, the President and Comptroller were authorized to have the Library building completed, and not to pay the balance due De Longchamps and Ward Brothers until such work is properly completed. Upon motion of Regent Henderson, seconded by Regent Codd, a com- mittee of 3, consisting of the Chairman of the Board of Regents, the President of the University and one member of the Board of Regents to be chosen by them, was empowered to visit the various Colleges in the United States and Canada for the purpose of securing able men for the vacancies which now exist. Upon motion of Regent Henderson, seconded by Regent Pratt, the recommendation of the President that Theodore W. Clark is appointed Superintendent of the Station Farm and Superintendent of the College Farm, and made assistant in Animal Husbandry was approved. Mr. Clark is to receive a salary of $150 per month beginning with the first of February, 1914, to be paid as fol- lows: $50 from the Hatch Fund; $50 from the State Funds; $50 from the A & M College Fund. Upon motion of Regent Henderson, seconded by Regent Pratt, all recommendations of the Finance Committee, except those previous- ly acted upon by the Board of Regents, were ordered approved. Their report, with omissions indicated above, follows: Reno, Nevada February 26, 1914 To the Honorable the Board of Regents University of Nevada, Reno Gentlemen: We, your Finance Committee, to whom was referred certain matters contained in the President's report of February 6th, recommend the following action be taken: 1. That J. B. Lynch be given full charge of the University pond. That when in his judgment the pond is unsafe for skating or swimming, he shall have full power to keep all parties off of that portion of the Campus. 2. That the Board shall not at this time grant any increase in salary to Miles B. Kennedy of the Food and Drug Department. 3. That Miss Sissa, Registrar, be granted an increase in salary from $1100 to $1200 per year, effective February 1, 1914. 4. That Miss Sadie Frandsen be employed in the Department of Botany until March 31, 1914, at a salary of $50 per month. 5. That V. E. Scott, in charge of Dairying, be granted an increase in salary from $1600 to $1800 per year, ef- fective February 1, 1914. 6. That the plan recommended by the President for the Cadet Battalion to vist the Panama-Pacific Exposition be ap- proved, but in the opinion of your Committee it is too early to take any official action in regard to this matter at this time. 7.

Dinsmore's receiving $50 per month from the City of Reno for milk inspection. That the plan of the President for the purchase of an automobile be not ap- proved. 9.

Elder White's cute face, winning smile and evident goodness have endeared him to the other missionaries and to the mission leaders alike, and everyone is sure he'll be an important church leader one day – maybe even a General Authority.
He has been a full-time missionary for many months, and he is rising quickly through the ranks, earning the trust and love of his companions, and the respect of the mission leadership.
But just when he thinks he has figured out Mormon missionary life, another Elder tells him that the church is secretly run by a group of men known as The Order.
Elder White doesn't believe him, but as the days pass he becomes more and more curious. The way the missionary had looked at him was really unsettling, as if there were even darker secrets that he wasn't revealing.
So Elder White confronts the boy and asks him to tell him everything about The Order. But the other missionary is unwilling.
"The only way to find out," he says, "is to go through the initiation yourself."
This is not a casual comment. The Order has been interested in handsome Elder White since he arrived, and they extend an invitation for the boy to come to the mission home and begin the process.

The top Democrat on the House Appropriations Committee said Oct. 9 that defense spending could be reduced by an additional $10 billion if the across-the-board Pentagon cuts hit in 2013.
Rep. Norm Dicks (D-Wash.) sent a "dear colleague" letter which said that an additional 1.9 percent cut to defense spending could come on top of the 9.4 percent cut that the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) estimated in its report to Congress last month.
The Dicks letter says that the total defense cuts under sequestration would be $60.6 billion in 2013, which is $10 billion higher than the figure cited by OMB.
"OMB, in accordance with the [Sequestration Transparency Act], looked at only one aspect of sequestration," Dicks wrote in the letter. "As another motivation to act, the BCA [Budget Control Act] also set up a second, separate sequestration to enforce the firewall between security and non-security appropriations. Because the Joint Committee failed, a new and lower defense firewall goes into effect, requiring an additional cut in defense spending."
The committee also laid out job losses it estimates will occur as a result of the non-defense sequester, which will also be cut $55 billion in 2013.
The committee estimated more than 24,500 Homeland Security jobs would be lost, 2,200 FAA jobs, and 3,000 Justice Department positions including the within the FBI, U.S. Marshals and the Drug Enforcement Agency.

This week's Fashionista exudes New York street style effortlessly with a flair of personality. After meeting on a few occasions, I discovered that she combines business savvy and fashion on her own online vintage boutique. Her blog and Instagram are chock full of Lookbook-esque photos that would make any gal jealous of her stylish threads. I view Diandra's style as one of the best of the many unique styles that we house here at SCAD Atlanta.
Name: Diandra Skeffrey
Major: Fashion Merchandising/Management
Year: Junior
CollegeFashionista: How would you describe your style? Does it embody the spirit of Atlanta or some other big city?
Diandra Skeffrey: Unique, defiant and very blunt; it embodies the spirit of a chic, young chick living in Soho, New York.
CF: Tell us a little about how you combine your fashion sense and entrepreneurial spirit with your boutique.
DS: I combine my fashion sense with my boutique by picking unique and selective pieces. Each item is hand picked personally by me with love. I make sure each piece has a story or statement. I love to be different, and I want my customers to feel the same way.
CF:Do you follow any interesting bloggers or have your own blog?
DS: I do not follow any interesting blogs but I do have a blog of my own on tumblr.com/diandraanika
To find more about Diandra and her endeavors, follow her on Instagram (kiwi_lipstick), Tumblr and on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/diamantnoirboutique); you can also check out her online boutique (http://www.diamantnoirboutique.com/).
How To: To achieve Diandra's downtown city glamour, check out the new Prabal Garung collection at Target. The bold use of color in the button-down and short look and the bright yellow dress, as well as the chicness of the black and white floral look, should have you set for downtown this spring.

Memory map has hole on Sony Vaio while installing Suse v11
I am trying to install Suse v11 on an older Sony Vaio notebook(PCG-6G4L). This is a dual boot with XP, which is running fine.:rolleyes:
Suse just won't run although it appeared to install OK with kde 3.5 for the desktop. It almost acts as if it is freezing but then comes out of it and the mouse pointer will move. Acting in slowmo.
Running the firmware test shows "memory map has a hole 15mb to 16 mb". Memorytest86 gives a pass.
Can this be repaired? If so what do I need to do? And please in simple terms!!!!!!
Thanks Sandie

Found this in a box of items. I have had it for years and bring it out every once in awhile to try and figure it out. I have given up and would like some help with it. About 3" in dia. and is mounted on a swivel ball. the whole thing looks to be mounted on a rod and held with thumb screw. The ribbed egde looks like it unscrews and would maybe hole a glass or mirror. The markings on the ring are P.M. Co. R-112-R.
Thanks for any help.

<Narrator> 'Tis the darkest Glyph thou barest. It sacrifices stray souls to
summon unearthly force. Unearthly force shall obey and serve thee.
'Tis named "Chaos Legion".
<Victor> The sinner shall be atoned. Even though no punishment will be enough
for your sin. Siela! Why...? Why were you taken from me?
<Sieg> Why? The answer is within.
<Victor> I shall never forgive you for what you have done. It's still too soon
for you to meet your end. First, you'll have to suffer through the
underworld. Follow me Sieg! For your atonement is waiting for you!
Come see the hidden truth of this world!
- A few hours ago ------ -
- Novermber 791 A.S. -
- Rotari the Sacred Capital -
<Narrator> Once a pious man had fallen into the dark side, this tragedy began
to unfold.
<Man 1> Last night, Sir Clovis, a considerable member of our Order of St.
Overia, was murdered. After stealing the forbidden Apocrypha of Yzarc,
the suspect managed to escape. His name is... Victor Delacroix. What
led that virtuous man to commit such an outrage against order is
unkown. But there is no time to waste. You must track him down, The
Knight of the Dark Glyph, Sieg Wahrheit.
<Sieg> Delacroix...
<Victor> So... What's happened to the Legion's power? The time has come. It's
time to show you the abyss of the darkness.
<Sieg> Siela...
<Siela> I come to save you. But... You saved me...
<Victor> What did you see? Dreaming of Siela's forgiveness? Come, join me!
And I shall liberate you from the dark spirit...
- 3 Years Later -
- The Spiritual Day's Eve -
- December 794 A.S. -
- Dyfan the Twilight City -
<Man 1> Dyfan has been destroyed...?
<Man 2> Yes, your excellency. The Scout has reported. The city was destroyed
and seized last night by an unkown attacker. Unfortunately, no
survivors have been reported... Also...
<Man 1> Also what?
<Man 2> There aren't any bodies, none at all. Not even a blood stain... Only
the remains of the charred city... And a message that was scrawled on
the castle wall, by blood. It says:
"I am, indeed, the punishment for your sins."
"I'm here to purify the three worlds."
<Man 1> This couldn't have been down by an ordinary man. There is only one
with the ability to make a whole city disappear, barely leaving a
trace. And from the resolute message found on the castle wall, it
could only be... him...
<Man 2> ...Doubtlessly
<Man 1> There is no time to waste. Find him.
<Arcia> They were my precious family. Thanks for saving me. I'm Arcia... I'm
one of the Maidens of the Silver. Recently, the intelligence of the
Order had traced the whereabouts of Lord Delacroix. I was ordered to
act as a scout and pursue him, so I separated from the head unit and
came here to gather information. But how could this have happened!?
It looks like he's headed for the ruins of Murdoa.
<Arcia> Do you know him?
<Sieg> You shouldn't concern yourself with that.
<Sieg> Could this be one of the Three Glyphs!?
<Victor> It's been a long time... Sieg! I knew you could come without waiting
for superior's order.
<Victor> You've changed in the last 3 years.
<Sieg> You haven'e changed at all. Same as always.
<Arcia> This is for my brother!
<Victor> Well, a Maiden of the Silver. I thought it was against your vows to
allow your emotions to
turn violent?
<Arcia> Quiet!!
<Victor> Useless..
<Arcia> What...!
<Victor> As a Knight of the Dark Glyphs, you should know the Three Glyphs.
So you should know my intention. When the time has come, you will
be sarcrificed for it.
<Sieg> The Three Sacred Glyphs. They are the forbidden ancient symbols which
will open the Gateway of Chaos and lead us to the Red Moon.
<Arcia> When they meet, the Three Glyphs will release the Spirit of
Purification, allowing the three worlds to reunite once again. I
believe it is from a part of thge Elder's story. But isn't it just a
folklore, only a fairy tale for children?
<Sieg> No, It really does exist. The imprisoned Spirit does.
<Arica> Sieg, tell me everything you know!! What's he planning to do?
<Arcia> Sieg?
<Prist> Let us pray.
<Arcia> Brother?
<Arcia> Brother!
<Sieg> If the Apocrypha of Yzarc is true, the Three Sacred Glyphs are:
The Glyph of Ascension, already stolen from the ruins of Murdoa.
The Glyph of Destruction, which lies somewhere in Kuzoa...
And the Glyph of Primal Sin, which should lie in Yzarc the forbidden
<Arcia> So... You are saying that we should head towards Kuzoa the Grand
<Sieg> I guess that's the only way.
<Arcia> Why does he want to unbind the Spirit?
<Sieg> You don't need to know that... It's between me and him.
<Arcia> This wall painting... must be the Purification of Apocalypse, written
in the Sacred Book.
<Siela> Why-----?
<Arcia> Sieg!?
<Siela> Why... did you kill me?
<Victor> Siela. Siela! Have you lost your mind!? Why-----? Tell me Sieg, why
did you kill Siela!? What did you see?
<Vcitor> When I read the Apocrypha of Yzarc, I saw the truth of how Order
reeks of evil. Toying souls, and controlling even life and death...
Things of such an unholy nature should be destroyed. And when the
three worlds are purified, All souls should find their true place.
Then I will reunited with Siela.
I already possess two of the Three Sacred Glyphs. But still the time
has not yet come. Your soul... will be sacrificed for Siela. Until
then, you'll serve your penance in the living hell... that you have
created by your hand.
<Arcia> Sieg! Sieg!
<Sieg> Where did he go...?
<Arcia> You need to rest.
<Arcia> What makes you fight so hard? I don't know what happened between you
and Delacroix. But... You seem to be in a rush to die! Delacroix...
has killed my brother and my family... That's why. I can't stop until
I've avenged them.
<Sieg> I don't understand it myself. If I could only atone for the Sin that
I have committed...
<Arcia> -----Your sin?
<Sieg> I wasn't able to save even a single woman.
<Arcia> A single woman...
<Sieg> But all I can do is keep fighting.
<Arcia> Sorry... I shouldn't have asked about it. I think you need more rest.
<Arcia> I really don't know anything about Sieg. Nothing at all.
<Sieg> Why have you come here all alone...?
<Sieg> You've come this far to kill Delacroix? To avenge your family?
<Arcia> That's the only thing left for me...
<Sieg> It's dangerous to try and fight against Delacroix.
<Arcia> But, But I...!!
<Sieg> I guess... I've brought all this on.
<Victor> I've waited a long time for this. I now possess all of the Three
Sacred Glyphs! So Sieg...? What can you do to stop it? Do you want
to try with your sword...?
<Sieg> I regret not killing you when I had the chance.
<Victor> Regret? The Order of St. Overia has many more important things to
feel regret for?
<Victor> As you know, this universe has three worlds. Humans live in this
Middle World. After death, their souls are guided to the Celestial
World or the Nether World according to their actions in life... And
after a long rest, they will be reborn as new lives. But some people
have the power to summon monster called "Chaos Legion", at the
sarcrifice of wandering souls. As written in the Apocrypha of Yzarc,
some hideous people like you, 'Legionator'! To monopolizethe power,
the Order of St. Overia sealed and forbade the Apocrypha of Yzarc...
Isn't it this an act of GREED?
<Sieg> And that's your reason for trying to destroy the worlds, in the name
of 'Purification'?
<Victor> That's right. Once the Gateway of Chaos has been opened, the Spirit
will demolish and reunite three worlds, This is the Purification,
the only way to punish the Order for its sin, and save this world.
<Sieg> ... Remember her words. Siela wouldn't want the worlds to be
<Victor> How can I forget...!? I'll never forget!
<Siela> There are many people I can still save... And you... You are capable
of saving many more lives. That's why. Sieg!
<Victor> I promised before... To change the worlds as she wishes. May the
souls of all living creatures be allowed to live forever.
<Sieg> It's only a deranged illusion, split from darkness possessing you!
<Victor> My desire is to be close to her as a soul, is that a madness?
<Siela + Victor> Please, come to me...
<Sieg> Delacroix!
<Victor> I possess all the Three Glyphs. So, the Gateway of Chaos will open.
The Spirit of Purification will be set free, to fullfil my wish.
Sieg... If you want to try and stop me, I'll be waiting for you in
Rotari the Sacred Capital!
<Arcia> I couldn't do anything... Nothing at all.
- Rotari the Sacred Capital -
<Arcia> It's so horrible. Sieg, you go ahead! I'll stay here... There may be
a few survivors. I want to help anyone who may still be alive.
<Sieg> Arcia...
<Arcia> I thought there wasn't anything left for me, because my family and
friends are gone. But... I still have a lot of things I can do. And
you, you can save many innocent lives! You are the only one who can
stop Delacroix!
<Sieg> I promise.
<Arcia> Sieg! Please don't die...!
<Victor> The time has finally come. The awesome power of the forbidden Spirit
Azrail... is going to come once again and reunite the worlds.
Do you remember the last time? When the Order of Overia broke Seal
of Chaos, they wanted to harness the power for themselves... But...
Azrail was too powerful for them to control so they quickly sealed
Chaos once again.
And then tragedy struck, Siela's death, It was your uncontrollable
madness, which threw me into this cruel nightmare. Why? Why!?
Siela's soul has been taken to the other side and it now a part of
Azrail. Therefore... By releasing Azrail, I will be releasing Siela
as well. The seal must be broken! To complete the ceremony, you,
the one who took Siela away from me will be sarcrificed! Sieg! The
time has come for me to send you to the other side!
<Sieg> Wake up! You'll never get her back!
<Victor> ...Silence!
<Arcia> No! Don't make it any worse. You're so pathetic. Your only loyality
is to the dead. I've also lost loved ones to tragedy. But, I can't
get them back. They will never answer my calls or laugh with me ever
<Victor> ... You don't understand! ... Sieg. You should understand what
I'm feeling. This infinite pain I suffer from...
<Sieg> No!!
<Victor> I shall sarcrifice your useless soul for Siela's.
<Arcia> Sieg... Stop him, please. Innocent people shouldn't have to suffer
<Victor> Quiet!!
<Arcia> I'm alive...
<Sieg> ... You're alive?
<Arcia> The moment I pulled the trigger, the force restraining me weakened.
Maybe... Delacroix still may have some doubt in his heart...
<Victor> ... Your sin, will be paid for eith your live!
<Arcia> Sieg!!
- St. Claire's Cathedral -
- The Hall of Chaos -
<Sieg> It was that night. Obeying the order of my superior. I tried to seal
Azrail behind the Gateway of Chaos. When I was struggling to seal.
Azrail resisted up until the very last moment the Gateway was closed.
<Siela> Sieg!
<Sieg> Open your eyes! Delacroix!
<Siela> Sieg, you must live... and please take care of Delacroix in my
<Sieg> Siela!
<Victor> Why are you sleeping, Siela...?
Siela! What are you doing? Have you gone mad!?
.. It was me.
... Did I kill Siela? Did I...? It's all come back. I remember
everything... It was these hands that... Siela!
I was the one being controlled by the darkness.. Sieg... No matter
what the truth is, my love for Siela will never die. The time has
come to unbind Azrail and for me to be reunited with Siela. And...
once the worlds have been purificed and reunited, I will become one
with her for eternity!
<Sieg> Once the truth was revealed, I knew it would end up this way.
<Arcia> Is this the... !?
<Sieg> With Delacroix's soul, Chaos is about to be unleashed, and Azrail will
be released. Delacroix... The time has come for me to release your
soul from the darkness that imprisons you.
<Siela> I wanted to tell... Sieg... I'm happy that I met you and Delacroix.
<Sieg> ... Me too.
<Siela> Thank you, Sieg... I have to go...
<Sieg> Good Bye.
<Sieg> I wasn't able to save either of them afterall.
<Arcia> It's over?
<Sieg> ... Yeah
<Sieg> I'm the only one that survived.
<Arcia> ... No you're not. I'm here.

Today's release of Bon Jovi tracks for Rock Band 3 illustrates how Harmonix will upgrade its old tracks to use the new game's features.
The addition of keyboards and Pro-level guitar parts to Rock Band 3 raised the question — would Harmonix upgrade any of the 2,000 songs in the game's music store to use the new instruments? Today's Bon Jovi songs show that the answer is yes. Three of the band's most popular back-catalog songs — "Wanted Dead or Alive," "Livin' on a Prayer" and "You Give Love a Bad Name" — have been fitted with keyboards and Pro parts.
The catch is that you'll have to pony up another $2 per song even if you already own them. Ouch. Oh, and as Harmonix has already said, if you want the Pro guitar and bass parts, it's an extra $1. That's a fair price — most people simply won't need the extra parts.
New tracks include "Runaway" (which will also have an optional Pro part), "Blaze of Glory," "It's My Life," "Bad Medicine," "Have a Nice Day," "I'll Be There For You," "Lay Your Hands on Me," "We Weren't Born to Follow" and "Who Says You Can't Go Home."
Hey, anybody else remember playing "Bad Medicine" in Guitar Freaks 4th Mix?

Spicy Cabbage Rolls Recipe
- 1 large head cabbage
- 2 cups cooked barley
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1-1/2 cups chopped onion
- 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 2 to 3 teaspoons ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 2 pounds ground pork
- 1 can (15 ounces) tomato sauce
- 1/2 cup chili sauce
- 1 teaspoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1. Cook cabbage in boiling water just until outer leaves pull away easily from head. Set aside 10 large leaves for rolls. (Refrigerate remaining cabbage for another use.) Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the barley, garlic, onion, soy sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, ginger, salt and pepper. Crumble pork over mixture and mix well.
- 2. Cut out the thick vein from the bottom of each leaf, making a V-shaped cut. Place about 1/2 cup pork mixture on a cabbage leaf; overlap cut ends of leaf. Fold in sides. Beginning from the cut end, roll up. Repeat. Place rolls, seam side down in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish.
- 3. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the sauce ingredients; cook and stir until smooth. Pour over rolls. Cover and bake at 350° for 80-90 minutes or a thermometer reads 160°. Yield: 8-10 servings.

Reviews for Spicy Cabbage Rolls
Average Rating
"excellent flavor profile"
"Nice change to a traditional stuffed cabbage. The chili sauce, soy and ginger added a good asian flavor to the dish. We did use fresh ginger instead of ground. I love that the barely added some whole grain goodness as well."
"I saw soy sauce in the sauce and in the filling which made me choose this recipe. Not only soy sauce but also barley instead of rice. I halved the filling recipe and doubled the sauce. Instead of ground ginger, I used about 1/2 tsp grated fresh ginger. For sauce I added about 1/4 C white wine and I did not heat the sauce since there was no point in that. I also placed 2 slices of bacon on top before baking. Loved the filling. I love how it was loose compared to rice and I thought the use of pork was very good. Next time I plan on mixing pork and beef. This recipe is worthy of repeats. Perfect with buttered noodle and green salad."
"There is supposed to be 1/4 cup packed brown sugar in the sauce (I still have the original magazine!). We love this! My husband does not like the sweet type of sauce so this is perfect. I leave out the ginger, personal pref. I have used rice in place of the barley. When the direction says "large" cabbage, no kidding. 10 leaves from a regular sized cabbage will use about 1/2 the filling! I chop the leftover cabbage and put it in bottom of the baking dish, putting the rolls on top."
"It is missing the amount of sugar needed in the sauce or the kind. I made this from the book but no longer have it so just guessed and tasted as I went. Lexi0145"
"Too much ginger. Didn't much care for the barley in it even though we love barley. Sauce was good I used hot salsa instead of the chili sauce. I will make my regular rolls with rice but will use the sauce recipe."
"I didn't put any sugar in the sauce and thought it was delicious....just heated it through and poured over. Great change on the filling using the barley instead of the usual rice. Loved it!"
"Did you get an answer to your sauce question. I was planning on making them and had the same question. Thanks, Joan"
"This recipe looks great! For those who've tried making it already I have a question about the sauce. It says in the directions to heat the sauce until the sugar melts but I don't see any sugar in the ingredients (except for the tablespoon of dark sugar in the meat mixture). Could you tell me how much & what type of sugar you added to the sauce. Thanks!!"
"Terrific recipe! My husband does not like sweet tomato sauces, he loved this!"
"I am soooo happy to have found this recipe online. I used to be a subscriber many years ago around 1996 and this is the best cabbage roll recipe I have ever had! I love anything sweet and spicy and I love barley. Its one recipe that I had misplaced so thanks for having it on here!!!"

adding - SCSI Tape drives and an old pentium 2
Hi everyone,
I want to add to my existing home Linux network.
(Currently BT5r2, Ubuntu x2, Freenas and out of box NAS etc.)
I've gotten hold of two old DEC/HP TZ88 tape drives and a few dozen used and new data cartridges. two Adaptecc PCI Scsi cards, Cables and terminators etc
I've done a bit of background reading about mt and tar.
Can anyone recommend a suitable distro for networking "only" these tape drives. (Ideally to run on a Pentium 2.
I'm not brave so if enough people say don't bother I probably wont.
Moved: This thread is more suitable in Linux-Hardware and has been moved accordingly to help your thread/question get the exposure it deserves.
What is the model number of the SCSI cards?
How much memory do you have in your P2?
My first choice would probably be debian without a GUI. I assume the prime purpose is a backup server for the rest of the network.
Here is one example of a backup server
Thanks Michaelk,
Yes a bit more backup. Its late here and I'll be plugging everything together tomorrow. I'll search out the Scsi card details and memory details and post those. Had a quick look at Amanda tonight, but I'm too tired to concentrate.
thanks again Nick
Yesterday was a bad day but that was yesterday.
Well this morning I went through a box of bits and found the following
3x Adaptec SCSI AHA 2940 AU Ultra kits with floppys and CDs
3Adaptec SCSI (individual cards) AHA1510BS7, AHA1542CP, AHA1535A
2x HP/DEC TZ88 tape drives and cables and terminators Etc.
I connected everything up on the bench and powered it up.
Remarkably the pentium P2 WIN NT4 booted and I even remembered the password. (this was a production machine 10years back)
Now here are my restrictions;
The maximum RAM the P2 appears to accept is limited to 64Mb.(I tried all the combinations I make up from my treasure trove of old RAM)
The bios won't recognise DVD drive only a CD drive.
I haven't wasted my time trying larger HDD yet (but I've got a wide selection of IDE HDDs ranging in size from from 3Gb upwards.
So back to the question has anyone any prefered small distro which will squeeze onto the P2 within these restrictions?
Basic GUI would be nice remembering I only want to add these tape drives to the network really.
BTW Amanda looks great any thoughts of the best distribution for it?
I would still try debian and if a GUI is a must maybe lxde with the 2940 cards. Without knowing the exact date of the BIOS you might be limited to a max drive size of <=32GB.
With a maximum of 64MB RAM even LXDE would be overkill. If a GUI really is necessary I would go for one of the real lightweights, like JWM or IceWM or a simple tiling manager (dwm or something like that).
Thanks guys,
I'll try those tomorrow and post back my results when I have them.
Please mark as solved.
Progress now thank you.
Please will you mark as solved
There is a pull down menu called Thread Tools at the top of the first post where you can mark the thread as solved.

What puts you off a potential date? We ask Emma Heaney, General Manager (and Christmas cupid!) at Foundation bar, why Christmas is the best time to get your flirting groove on and the pitfalls to avoid...
Why is Christmas the perfect time for flirting?
Everyone is in the party mood, excited about socialising and more willing to mingle with people outside of their social circle - including any hotties they spot at the bar!
Why are bad chat up lines rarely successful even if they are funny?
You want to chat someone up, not give them an excuse to slap you. So those cheeky chat up lines may not work as well as you'd think. Funny chat up lines will break the ice, but if you've never met this person, saying something like 'don't worry I'm not married anymore – I murdered my husband,' will probably go down like a lead balloon.
What is the most boring conversation you should avoid?
Anything that makes you want to run away and hide in a corner, until the party has finished. The weather, work and your ex's are normally top of the list - but as a rule - if it's going to send your friends to sleep then it's probably a good idea to stop talking.
Even as a joke why are insults never a good idea to try out on someone you like?
Mainly because it makes your potential suitor feel as though you're back in the school playground. A comment like 'I love tall men - so it's a shame your under 6ft isn't it? 'is definitely not clever – put down the insults and back away slowly!
Why can well-chosen funny chat up lines be effective?
Making someone laugh can be the way to their heart - but make sure it's said with a wink or a smirk – 'Feel my dress, you know what that is? Girlfriend material' will get a laugh and hopefully the conversation started.
If you fancy someone don't think about it too much - diving in head first will make you look confident - take a few deep breaths and just go for it. If you approach them like a nervous wreck, wired on coffee then you'll put them off from the word go. Your nerves will rub off on them and they'll try and end the conversation sharpish.
Get your Christmas presents early
The weather is set to start heating up again, and while we might not be reaching Ibiza temps again anytime soon
With the Champions League Final round the corner we decided to look a bit closer into the two finalists and their volatile rivalry…

Tagged: contact page, propulsion
Up until about a week ago, my Contact page was working great using the Propulsion theme. Now it seems to be malfunctioning for some reason.
I've gone through all my plugins and disabled them to see if the Contact page returns but it has not helped. Any thoughts on why this is happening?
Please check the theme options (Propulsion > Theme Options > Contact). Maybe try to "reset" the contact form page by selecting another page. Then save the options and select your current contact page again. Make sure that the includes/contact-form.php exists and isn't corrupt/damaged.
Thanks for the reply. I did verify the theme options are correct and I've tried changing it to a new page that I created (like Contact Test) which resulted in the same "Nothing Found" error.
I verified that the Contact-Form.php is still present. Just to be sure, I reuploaded that file from the original Propulsion zip again. Same results as before.
I disabled all the plugins once more and tested the pages again while doing the above actions, to the same results as before. The problem persists.
Hey CarletonTorpin,
If you can create a temporary admin account for me and send over the details I'll take a look and see if I can spot what might be happening.
You can send the information to my email at DevinVinson (at) gmail.com. Make sure to include a link to this topic so that my spam filter doesn't grab it :)
All fixed :)
Its an old bug that when a set of options is defined in the theme options>Portfolios but there is no page selected it can cause this kind of thing. I removed the empty "portfolios" from the Portfolio section and then saved it so that there is just the single set of options for the page "Learn How to Select your Pool cue". If you ever need to add additional portfolio type pages, you can just hit the green + at the bottom there to add another set of options. Just make sure to hit the red X when you want to delete that set or does not have a page defined.
The topic 'Contact Form has stopped appearing on the Contact Page' is closed to new replies.

Growing up, it was always a treat when tacos were on the dinner menu. Seems like most kids can't get enough of them! Since I've become an adult, I must admit I've tended more towards the enchilada or tostada when I'm in the mood for some Mexican-inspired fare. But when I was recently craving the spicy goodness that is the taco, I remembered a great recipe we tried out several years ago using lentils.
We dusted it off, made a few tweaks, and ended up with a marvelous and simple meatless meal! It's surprising how satisfying the lentils are (even when expecting the traditional ground beef), and how much the homemade seasonings enhance the flavor. Alex actually admitted to liking them more than their meat-filled counterpart (which is saying something since though he eats mainly meatless these days, he's still very much a meat-lover at heart).
Give them a try – they're simple enough to prepare for a weeknight meal, but special enough to have everyone looking forward to Taco Night!
- 1¼ cups brown lentils (8 ounces)
- 3½ tablespoons homemade taco seasoning mix
- 1 red onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1½ tablespoons ketchup
- 8 to 12 whole grain or corn tortillas
- Toppings of your choice: Lettuce, fresh tomatoes, shredded cheese, salsa, sour cream
- In a medium sauce pan, bring 1¾ cups salted water to a boil. Add 1¼ cup lentils, cover, and reduce heat. Simmer covered for about 20 to 25 minutes, until most of the water has been absorbed.
- Mix the taco seasonings. Wash and chop the lettuce and fresh tomatoes, if using.
- Finely dice 1 red onion and 2 garlic cloves. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet; add red onion and sauté for about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté for about 1 minute more.
- Turn off the heat and add the lentils. Stir in 3½ tablespoons of taco seasoning mix and 1½ tablespoons ketchup. Add more seasoning if desired.
- To serve, add lentils to a warmed tortilla and top with lettuce, tomatoes, shredded cheese, salsa, and sour cream. Fold and enjoy!

The Cove Herald
Coryell County's Republican leadership met in Copperas Cove on Tuesday for the first time this election cycle, giving residents a chance to meet candidates and current officeholders alike. About 35 people showed up to hear the speeches, which often talked of deep family connections and long-time service to Copperas Cove.
With the March 4 primary uncontested, at least among county representatives, there weren't many points of contention between candidates. But there were some strong opinions.
Three major topics were discussed at the meeting, each by several candidates: the need for more space in the Coryell County Jail, the need to support whichever candidate receives the Republican presidential nomination and the need to attract younger voters.
In addition, candidates talked about their years of experience and ties to Coryell County, which for some candidates and current office holder are quite extensive — Precinct 1 Justice of the Peace John Guinn, who was present at the meeting but still has three years remaining in his current term, has been working in the county for the longest, at 26 years. Several of the candidates for constable, including Roger Hammack (Precinct 4) and David White (Precinct 3), have had family in the area for many years: both Hammack and White have relatives who once serves as Coryell County sheriff.
Coryell County Republican Party Chairman Ed Thompson, who served as the event's emcee, told the audience that the goal of the event is to familiarize the candidates with the people they'll be serving.
"I feel like I know a lot more about these guys now," he said. "What we're doing here is learning a lot more about each other."
Rex Davis, running for the Place 2 Justice post on the District 10 Court of Appeals, said voter turnout will be a significant factor in the next presidential election. If a Democratic candidate (either Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton) is elected, he said, "Some of our freedoms — and I'm being serious — would be in jeopardy. In the long run (the Republican candidates are) better than the Democrats, either one."
He received the moral support, though not the official endosement, of Chief Justice Tom Gray and Place 3 Justice Felipe Reyna, both present at the candidate showcase.
The other major issue at the meeting, the need for younger Republicans, was addressed by Young Republicans representative J.D. Windham, who said "We've got to lower the age median of the Republican Party."

Greycliff, W. Hill St. Follow the limosines to this restaurant, Just up the hill (4 blocks) from the British Colonial Hilton. I would say the cuisine is continental using Bahamian products. For instance, my pheasant w/Eleuthera grown pineapple was delicious. The lobster dishes have been great both times we've been. They have 175,000 bottles of wine. I was "disappointed" when they were out of my favorite $3000 bottle of wine (the waiter thought I was serious), I settled for a $50 bottle. They also sell many, many types of Cuban cigars, a very nice way to end the evening on our walk back down to the Hotel. Greycliff is a mansion where
you will sit in a waiting room w/your drink. Wait staff is all in Tux's. We liked the open air balcony seating on the 2nd floor.
Sun And.....,(thats the name of it) Lake View Road. You'll need a cab/car for this one, but it has been
around for MANY years. My mom/dad honeymooned on New Providence and ate here 40 years ago. Seafood is always good. I usually go w/a duck or veal chop dish which are teriffic. Sun and.... is like a single level home. You enter an open Spanish style courtyard w/pool. Unless you are sure of the weather, ask for a table
underneath the roofed section (still open-air but secluded more from the wind/rain).
Just across from the Hilton (downtown Nassau) is a great restaurant for a cheap lunch or dinner. Conch Fritters is the name. They serve a great scorched conch. The conch is not really scorched, in fact it is not cooked at all, just marinated in some lime juice and a small amount of chili paste (AWESOME w/a cold beer!). The jerk chicken and seafood dishes were very good as well as the curry ones.

All organisations have, consciously or otherwise, an employer brand. It's the way in which organisations differentiate themselves in the labour market, enabling them to recruit, retain and engage the right people. A strong employer brand helps businesses compete for the best talent and establish credibility. It should connect with an organisation's values and must run consistently through its approach to people management.
This factsheet looks at why employer brand is important, how technology and social media are affecting employer brand, and its particular importance in recruiting talent, and mergers and acquisitions. It outlines the benefits of having a strong brand and the stages of developing one. Finally, it discusses the organisation's employee value proposition and the idea of segmenting that proposition for different employee groups.

We might be copying a bad feature of Matlab. Maybe we should just disallow fancy indexing with more than one dimension, e.g. array[X,Y] with X and Y from meshgrid. It might be that the kind of result x[[0, 1],[0, 1]] produces today is better left to a function, e.g. np.meshselect(x, *indices). Then we could just require that all arguments passed to *indices have the same shape. Sturla

The Peddlesfoots have been invited to a fancy dinner party at a hotel. Alexa knows it's respectful to always use good manners, but there are SO many manners to remember! Can Alexa and the Peddlesfoots be respectful and use good manners all dinner long?
Alexa Peddlesfoot and her friends have to do a project on bears to present to their class. As they work together, they learn a lot about cooperation and working together to get something done. They also learn a lot about bears--even real bears like Alexa's friend, Lloyd, who makes a surprise visit to Alexa's school!
Alexa Peddlesfoot had lots of friends at the Penshaw School. But there was one student named Sarah Squiggley who never seemed to fit in. The other students never took the time to find out how nice she was. Instead they teased her about everything! Would Alexa stand up to her friends and give Sarah Squiggley a chance to make friends too?
Scuff Peddlesfoot loves playing in the forest near his house, and he knows the woods well...but when he hears something strange in the trees one day, his path leads a little too far from home. Does Scuff have the courage to be a hero, even when he's afraid too?
The Peddlesfoots always try to be responsible and do their chores...but one day, Todd Peddlesfoot has a LOT of chores to do. And he's already busy thinking about getting new drumsticks! Can Todd be responsible and do all of his chores like his mother asks?
Scuff, Alexa, and Todd Peddlesfoots are usually very trustworthy, and they always try their best to tell the truth...but when some muddy feet, a messy closet, and a stained dress start to cause problems for the kids, will the Peddlesfoots children give in to lying?
The Peddlesfoots know that it's only fair to play by the rules and not cheat...but one tough day, Scuff learns that there are opportunities to cheat EVERYWHERE. Can he stay strong and do what's right by not cheating and always playing by the rules?

Cathay aims high in recruitment drive
To cope with its expansion, Cathay Pacific plans to hire more than 300 flight attendants.
Candidates will undergo a stringent series of assessments and interviews. These include career talks, tests measuring arm reach, group discussions, proficiency tests in Putonghua and English, presentations and debates, assessments of work preferences, and one-on-one interviews.
"We will select outstanding candidates from each round, who then go on to the next stage of the selection process," says Melody Keung, career development and resourcing manager for the airline's in-flight service department. "However, we will still consider candidates who don't pass every test. We may take more time to review their qualifications and performance, and contact them a couple of weeks later."
Applicants should have an excellent service mindset and a genuine interest in a career involving extensive customer contact. They should also be culturally sensitive since they will deal with passengers from all over the world.
Fresh graduates without significant work experience are welcome to apply.
New recruits will complete five weeks of classroom training, covering safety, emergency procedures, technical and service skills, grooming, and knowledge of different types of aircraft.
"All cabin crew are required to attend the annual emergency and safety training," Keung says. "Special training is provided to prepare high-potential staff at different levels for future promotions."
