pretty cool news...Missoula gets Pro XCT July 24th
2011 Pro XCT comprised of seven of the nation's top MTB racesColorado Springs, Colo. (Sept. 22, 2010)—USA Cycling announced today the 2011 edition of the USA Cycling Pro Mountain Bike Cross Country Tour (Pro XCT). With seven total events in 2011, the Pro XCT calendar will provide world-class athletes with a national stage on which to accumulate UCI ranking points and top prize purses."The 2011 Pro XCT will expand slightly over the 2010 version, offering one of the best calendars of quality UCI mountain bike races we've had in many years," stated USA Cycling CEO Steve Johnson. "We are committed to our long-stated goals of providing athletes with consistent top-level competition opportunities, increasing exposure for mountain biking domestically, and maximizing U.S. start spots at the sport's highest stages; and the Pro XCT national calendar provides a sustainable platform to help accomplish these goals."The 2011 Pro XCT will kick-off with a pair of US Cup Triple Crown races in California. One of two new additions to the calendar, the US Cup Triple Crown – Bonelli Park in San Dimas, Calif. will mark the unofficial start of the mountain biking season on March 12. For its second stop, the Pro XCT will move slightly south as the US Cup Triple Crown - Fontana City National continues the calendar March 26 in Fontana, Calif. Fontana has been a part of the Pro XCT since its inception and, along with the Bonelli event, is organized by US Cup/Team Big Bear.Following Fontana, the renowned Sea Otter Classic joins the ranks of the Pro XCT for the second consecutive year. Sea Otter's elite/pro men's and women's mountain bike races on April 16 will once again operate at the UCI C1 level, offering maximum ranking points to top riders.The Pro XCT will next move south to Lance Armstrong's renowned ranch in Dripping Springs, Texas as the Mellow Johnny's Classic plays host to the series' fourth stop. The Mellow Johnny's Classic is set to take place on April 30; a bit earlier in the year to avoid the extreme heat suffered at last year's event.The nation's top pros will then head north to contest the Sand Creek International, a category-two event for 2011, in Colorado Springs, Colo. Set in the picturesque foothills of Pikes Peak, the Sand Creek course is sure to play a deciding role in the overall Pro XCT outcome.The Subaru Cup in Mt. Morris, Wis. on June 25 looks to be one of the calendar's most exciting race experiences. Part of the well-established Wisconsin Off-Road Series (WORS), the Subaru Cup is traditionally crawling with thousands of enthusiastic fans.New to the Pro XCT, the Missoula Montana XC will mark the final contest on the season's Pro XCT. Set for July 24, the category-one race should offer another dynamic atmosphere with a course in close proximity of downtown Missoula.The UCI points up for grabs at each Pro XCT event are crucial in helping the United States qualify mountain biking start spots for the 2012 Olympic Games in London, as well as determining the start order at the UCI Mountain Bike World Championships. The men's and women's overall Pro XCT champions will also automatically qualify a spot on the U.S. squad for the UCI Mountain Bike World Championships.In addition to providing a sequence of international-caliber events where elite cross country racers can earn UCI points, the USA Cycling Pro XCT will spotlight top American races and recognize the best cross country teams and athletes competing on U.S. soil. In order for teams to earn points toward the overall Pro XCT team title, they must be registered as a UCI Trade Team or as a USA Cycling Mountain Bike Domestic Pro Team. The Pro XCT will rank the top male and female riders in the overall standings, provide leaders' number plates, Pro XCT medals, and a guaranteed cash purse for each race.

last rides of the week
Time flew by as typical when you're short on time and having a damn good time. The week hanging out and riding mtb's with my wife went by too quickly and as always we feel greatful to have fantastic parents that allow us to still get out like we were kids before having kids. Thanks to the beautiful state of Oregon for the good times and the great trails, we just scratched the surface as to the potential of what this state offers a cyclist....our last two rides of the week were at Waldo Lake and then the North Umpqua Trail, both trails were in close proximity to the Oakridge area so travel between them was light. Here's what we got into:

TIP from your good pal Chaybo
Any river trail ride that you happen to ride in central Oregon just make sure that you scrub with this stuff afterwards in cool / cold water. Poison Oak sucks.

oakridge OR
Our rides number 5 and 6 were based out of the small and friendly town of Oakridge. Loved this place and the helpful folks that call it home. A quick drive through town and we found a bike shop, a brewery, mexican food, chinese, a pizza shop and a grocery mart....all the essentials. So we headed for the most essential of them all and stopped in at the local brew pub, and even more importantly loaded up with fantastic information about what to ride and where to camp. Thanks to the fellas at the Brewers Union for the assistance.
So ride umero numero one in Oakridge was the Alpine Trail...our ride started from town and began on the North Fork of the Willamette for about 6 miles of lush riverside trail (also were i picked up a little bit of the poison oak too) and then we started in on our grinder of a climb up to the top of the Alpine Trail. The singletrack that awaited us up top motivated us during the climb. About 3 miles into the 11 mile climb and just as we were just settling in to a good pace a van full of mountain bikers shuttling to the top passed us by. Tracy questioned our sanity as the van and waving passengers passed us by.......a switchback later and the van was pulled over on the side of the road and another one of those friendly Oakridge folks greeted us with a smile and an offering for a free ride to the top. Before i could even think the proposal over Tracy was already handing our new buddy, Marcello her bike to be loaded. Ha ! Oh well......another thank you to the Willamette shuttle service and to Marcello, Heidi, and Steve for guiding us around and showing us the sites. The trail was amazing......a must do ride and initially i was thinking of doing it again the following day, it was that good. Here's a few pics:

King-Castle & Luckyboy shuttles
the day after riding the MRT our new found pal, Chris from McKenzie Mountian Lodge talked us into sticking around Blue River for another day, his plan was to shuttle us up to the top of a couple local downhill runs (and at no extra expenses...woo-hoo !). The first run was King-Castle which was a fantastic 7 mile decent through your typical lush central oregon forests...super fast if you'd let it take you. At the bottom of the run awaited our car, a quick bite to eat and then off for the second run called luckyboy, this trail was the remnants of an old mine road. Luck Boy Gold Mine was steep, loose, and rocky for about 8 or so miles. Not much flow to the trail but the history of the place more than made up for it.

Phils Trail
old filling pump and sign just north of Moro
Day one....phils trail, buffed out bermy-goodness with a few technical sections thrown in to break up the smoothness. The morning in Bend started with a cup of joe from some coffee shop wih a trendy italian name, the coffee was good and just about right after a nights stay in the back of the wagon near the rustic town of Moro. We thought about pulling in for a beer or two last night at the local pub with a great name "Sweet Water", but opted for the wheat field just out side of town and a couple cans from the cooler in the back seat. Dark skies and bright stars.
weird camera angle
Anyway, cup of joe thrown down and then followed some good directions from the trail review section over at dirtworld.com and we were off on our first day of Oregon singletrack. Lots of happy faces out on this trail network and some helpful direcions as we climbed up to the Helicopter pad and from here all back downhill following the Whoops Trail. Appropriately named with lots of jumps and bermed corners. Fun stuff. Thanks Bend !!

Dakota 5-0
The 10 hour drive back home after the completion of the Dakota race/ride and i probably could have sworn off ever doing this ride again, after all there is simply way to many rides to do in one mountain bikers lifetime. But after letting this past weekend soak a few days i can now say that i'd love to be in a position to ride it again. Why......simply the trails were that good. The Black Hill trails appear to have been created by folks who wanted to spur the interest of the mountain biker. Flowing terrain with a healthy amount of granite, tree roots, and at times trees spaced at handlebars width, twisty -turning goodness. Long climbs that eventually reward the decender. Fantastic race support, real time finish results, and a post ride feed and keg. All damn good reasons to do it again.
So how did i do.......approx 570 folks lined up for the mass start in down town Spearfish and after 4hr and 45 minutes of riding i finished 61st overall and 30th in my 30-39 age group. It wasn't all roses.....at the 18 mile mark i felt like crap, the legs felt heavy and i honestly questioned myself if i could finish. Coming into the second check point and 23 mile mark i was met by my family and a couple bottles of Carbo Rocket which i desperately needed, at the time i was sitting just inside the top 90 and losing places quickly. After heading back out and a refuel of electrolytes i started to feel better again and managed to work my way back up over the course of the next 27. I kept the rubber side down, enjoyed the terrain and the views. Chugged a beer at mile 43 at the PBR and bacon stop and received what my wife tracy said should qualify as the official Dakota 5-0 experience. Yep, bacon and beer.....the new power food.
aid station #2 and feeling like shit

Aging of the skin can be put into two categories: intrinsic and extrinsic. Intrinsic aging happens naturally over time and is determined by a person's genetics. Mild facial wrinkling, expression lines, and dry, sensitive skin are likely a result of intrinsic aging. Extrinsic aging is a result of external factors like unprotected sun exposure, smoking, alcohol use, pollution, and other lifestyle choices. Sun exposure is the leading cause of extrinsic aging, resulting in breakdown of the skin's support structure, discoloration, wrinkles, sagging, and in some cases even cancer. As we age, the appearance, texture, and structure of the skin deteriorates.
Scientific Approach to Anti-aging
Based on the Four Stages of Aging, we offer the latest treatments, ranging from damage reversal to prevention at the cellular level. A two-fold treatment combines age-defying Kobido massage and advanced nano-crystal fiber masks for the face and décolleté to greatly enhance the absorption of active ingredients. These ingredients are designed to brighten, hydrate, repair, and fortify. Each treatment will be customized to best address the unique needs of your skin.
Daily care is important to your success. Regular use of a simple, customized regimen will provide you with even more dramatic results. Let our licensed professionals recommend a daily routine to achieve your skin care goals.
Indicated for Stage I Aging
Is your complexion looking dull? Has your skin just begun to show the signs of aging, which include: uneven skin tone, loss of moisture, and fine expression lines around the eye and nasolabial areas?
Brighten your skin complexion, stimulate collagen production, and prevent the signs of aging with Energy C – Brightening Anti-aging treatment. It is formulated with a powerful antioxidant infusion of 10% stable, micronized Vitamin C – Ascorbyl Glucoside, to provide an even skin tone and uniform complexion. This potent Vitamin C infusion also induces the formation of collagen and elastin, which improves the quality and integrity of the skin, and provides moisture to reduce/prevent expression lines and wrinkles. The result is fresh, glowing, and healthy skin.
Active Ingredients:
Indicated for Stage II Aging
Skin is comprised of approximately 70% collagen, making it the most abundant protein in the skin. Unfortunately, over time, the natural collagen production is reduced, leading to the loss of facial volume and increase of fine lines and wrinkles.
Collagen 360° – Firming Treatment is formulated with a high-concentration of 10% Hydrolyzed Marine Collagen, enriched with Amino Acids for cellular renovation and enhancement of collagen and elastin production. This treatment will firm and hydrate your skin, plump and smooth fine lines and wrinkles, and improve elasticity and softness. The result is a more youthful, dewy, and volumized appearance.
Indicated for Stage III Aging
Skin stem cells are the direct precursors of the cells found in the different dermal layers. With the passing of time, its activity slows down. The skin loses its capacity for renewal, repair, and regeneration, resulting in thinning skin with loss of elasticity, dehydration, lack of tone, and deep wrinkles.
Stem Cell – Regenerating Treatment is formulated with 10% Plant-derived Active Stem Cell Extract to penetrate deep within the skin to reactive cell renewal, repair, and regeneration. Combined with Epidermal Growth Factors (EGF), this treatment will strengthen your skin and repair visible damage, diminish fine lines and wrinkles, and restore your skin's healthy glow and clarity.
Indicated for Stage IV Aging
As you age, your skin's DNA is affected by oxidative stress and environmental factors, causing cell turnover to slow. We can repair and protect your skin at the source!
Radiance DNA – Global Anti-aging Treatment is formulated with 10% [meso]recovery complex®, an innovative blend of peptides, bio-elements, vitamins, and minerals to target the skin at its deepest level, and revitalize the very foundation of the skin's health. Using a highly advanced delivery system, the Radiance DNA Treatment will lift, tone, tighten, hydrate, and literally make your skin more youthful by extending the life of your skin's cells.

Installation of nativescript on any platform seems to be a little tricky solution. Here are instructions on how to get nativescript working on Arch Linux.
1. Install java-jdk
Refer to these instructions to install your preferred jdk environment. Note that nativescript requires Java 8.
After installing java, create JAVA_HOME environment variable and add bin to PATH. Add these to your .bashrc or whichever shell you are using.
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/default export PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin
2. Install android studio
Install android studio from aur depending on your method of installation (I used packer).
3. Startup android studio
After installation, run android studio and go through the initial configuration wizard.
4. Install more packages from sdk manager
In android studio, open sdk manager and install SDK Platforms 22 (5.1 lollipop).
5. Add ANDROID_HOME environment variable
Create environment variable ANDROID_HOME and target it to your android sdk folder. Also add to PATH some tools folders.
export ANDROID_HOME=~/Android/Sdk export PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools:$ANDROID_HOME/tools
Now you should be able to run command adb and android anywhere in the command line.
6. Open sdk manager from command line
Open sdk manager from command line with the command android.
Select from under tools android sdk build tools 22.0.1. Install all packages also preloaded (11 or so).
7. Install nodejs and npm
sudo pacman -S nodejs npm
Note: depending on version, npm may be omitted since it comes with nodejs.
8. Install nativescript
sudo npm install -g --unsafe-perm nativescript
Installation might say there are some issues like missing ANDROID_HOME variable. Ignore these errors.
9. Run config test
Running command tns doctor you should see:
Your components are up-to-date. No issues were detected.
Which means you are up and running to start nativescript development.

Aseptomag® leakage valves are used for the mixproof shut-off of incompatible products at pipe junctions in UltraClean processing plants.
The valve design is characterized by the sealing of the moving valve stems with stainless steel bellows and the leakage chamber which is open to atmosphere. Due to these two characteristics, the valve enables a simplified process compared to true aseptic installations but still provides enhanced product safety by having hermetically sealed valve stems. Therefore, this valve is ideal for UltraClean applications within the food, beverage and dairy industry.

History Group 2
History group 2 meets on the second Wednesday of the month for talks led by Martyn Hall of Tamworth U3A.The sessions take place at St Chads Church Hall ,The Leasowe, from 10 am until 12.
Napoleon Bonaparte, The Lunar Men, and Victorian Railway Travellers were just three of the topics covered in the course "Life and Times of…" (part 3) .Since March this year we have been asking "Who are the British?" looking at early times in our country and considering the influences of the Celts, Romans, Anglo-Saxons, Vikings and Normans.
The two history groups meet at St Chad's Church Hall, The Leasowe, on the first and second Wednesday mornings of the month. The lectures by Martyn Hall of Tamworth U3A, remain very popular for they are presented with informative, and often amusing, illustrations. Group 2 was formed to enable us to cater for the demand. New members are welcome to join the group 2 that meets on the second Wednesday, as group 1 is full. Both groups follow the same programme of lectures.
We were grateful to members of the group who used their skills to dress mannequins to represent each of the historic periods in the current course.

I've always had a love of music, especially pianos. My family has had a black grand piano in the living room for as long as I can remember. I play it almost every single day, whenever I can. It makes such a sweet, lovely sound.
But recently, I've been hearing the piano's beautiful melody almost constantly, even when I'm not playing it. It speaks to me wherever I am; in the park, at the store, it doesn't matter.
I began to notice, about a week ago, that strange things happened soon after I heard the piano in my head. More specifically, people died. It was on the news quite often; there were many reports of people being stabbed to death by an unidentified killer. I found this fascinating. It was like I had some sort of supernatural power.
But soon, I began to hear the music when I was around close friends and family. Before long, almost everyone I had ever cared about was dead.
Just a few minutes ago, I found my parents dead in their bedroom. I looked down and saw a trail of bloody footprints leading from the bodies to me. In fact, they ended right where I was standing. I can hear the piano again, calling me.
It won't be long, now.

It's been so crazy here. We've been stuck inside the house for what seems like forever now! The kids had snow days last Thursday and Friday. I had an extra kid here too on those days. I felt like I spent the whole day catering to kids and then cleaning up after them. Wanna hear something funny? I haven't done one of these posts (meal plans and goals) in about three weeks--maybe? I don't even think I accomplished all of my goals from THAT week! I still need to wash the vacuum cleaner filters and canisters! I decided to wait until after our #DisneySide @ Home Celebration. Then last week happened~~with the holiday at the beginning of the week and the cleanup from the party and then those two snow days.
Plus, my hubby left again this past weekend to spend time with friends in Chicago. I swear sometimes I feel like a single parent. Between his "vacations" and him just being "absent" while he's trying to find a new job--no worries-- he still has a job, just looking for something different, and him beginning to tear apart our old bathroom,
Another not-so-funny story. . . . .about a half hour after my hubby left with his friends on Friday, I heard this loud
I quickly realized that something bad happened with our hot water tank (which is only 2 years old!!!). After frantically calling my plumber friend and my hubby, I was able to get the water turned off. My plumber friend was planning on coming down to hang out with some friends and me, so he looked at it that night. Thankfully, he was able to install a new water heater for us on Saturday. And then he snowblowed my driveway!! Plumber friend rocks!
One thing's for sure, I'm ready for a warm, non-soppy Spring and hot Summer! Like. . . .now! NOW, people! I don't even remember the last time there wasn't snow on the ground.
Anyway!!! Here's my meal plan for this week. Sweet Chicken and Bacon Pasta Salad
MONDAY: Pulled Pork Sandwiches and Raw or Roasted Veggies
TUESDAY: Beef Stew in the Slow Cooker
WEDNESDAY: Squid and Rice ~~ I was browsing the Goya products at the grocey store because they had a special in SavingStar for Spend $20 on Goya Products, get $5 back and I came across these Squid in cans. We've been trying to eat different things, so I figured I'd give this recipe a try!
FRIDAY: Fish Sandwiches
SATURDAY: Every man and woman for themselves!
SUNDAY: Andouille Sausage and Corn Chowder
As for those goals that I'm not making this week because what's the use with possible snow days coming and training for a half marathon in. the. house.
I am at least going to try to get the kitchen floors mopped today and some laundry washed and folded.
There. That's all the goals I'm willing to set!
How is your week shaping up? What's on your meal plan?

- Added support for relocation using http://autopackage.org/docs/binreloc/
(Needed to create an autopackage installer) Now GCompris will detect at runtime where it is installed and find it's data. As a fallback, default set at compile time are used (like before). To disable is, use sh configure --disable-binreloc Very usefull for developers, you can now run gcompris from within it's source code without even installing it !. The new code detect that and set the data dir accordingly. Warning, developers must no more use the PACKAGE_DATA_DIR define but must get the data dir always from the property object like this: GcomprisProperties *properties = gcompris_get_properties(); properties->package_xxx_dir contains the root data directory, like: package_data_dir = /usr/local/share/gcompris/boards package_locale_dir = /usr/local/share/locale package_plugin_dir = /usr/local/lib/gcompris package_python_plugin_dir= /usr/local/share/gcompris/python

Anyone looking for a better appreciation of the military engineering marvels behind D-Day should watch Nova's "D-Day's Sunken Secrets."
The two-hour episode of the popular science TV program aired last month on PBS in advance of tomorrow's 70th anniversary of the June 6, 1944, allied invasion of German-occupied France, and can be viewed in its entirety at the series' website.
Beginning around the 1 hour 40 minute mark, the video features a 3-D simulation of the Mulberry Harbors, a pair of man-made harbors featuring floating roadways that were used to ferry some 2.5 million troops and half a million vehicles from the sea to shores of Normandy.
"I always knew it was big but I think this makes you feel how big it is and how busy it was," marine engineer Tim Beckett, whose father designed the harbor, says at one point after seeing the digital creation of the landing area.
The simulation was created by the French software design company Dassault Systèmes, whose products are used by such companies as Boeing Co. to design aircraft. Dassault's Passion for Innovation Institute also uses the software to model historical engineering triumphs.
The Mulberry Harbor is one of three of the invasion's critical technologies being digitally recreated by the company as part of a project designed to coincide with the 75th D-Day anniversary in 2019, according to an article by Kelsey Atherton of Popular Science. The others are the Waco CG-4A Hadrian glider and the Higgins Boat.
To recreate the Normandy of yesteryear, the company collected blueprints, scanned underwater areas and used mapping tools to detail the harbor, boats and other wrecked artifacts, Atherton wrote.
The company has its own promotional video of the project posted on its website. Check it out below.

An approach I term remaking the ready-made is a regular concern within my art practice. Rather than choosing to use the original ready-made object, the choice to remake enables the removal of any unproductive associations or symbolic qualities the ready-made equivalents may have and allows for the addition of others through formal and material transformative decisions and through juxtaposition. It relies on the very specific set of cultural references and symbolic qualities imbued in the original object; the ready-made associations rather than the ready-made object (in the Duchampian sense).
This work directly engages the topic as its subject matter and highlights three different ways of remaking an object. The hand-painted, cast, plaster monkey nuts are the closest to exact replicas and thus, in themselves, are the most fake. The materiality of the black rubber lemon becomes the essential component in the transformation from the original; a response to the everyday that is somehow materially shifted. The alabaster rock transforms into an art object, without any material shift, through its position displayed in the gallery and with the intent of the artist.

Reviewed by Associate Editor Sam Baron
In "Blackened Fertility: The Lasting Discourse of African American Female Reproduction After the Civil Rights Movement", author Osaremen Okolo attempts to shed light on the invidious and false narrative of blackened "hyper-fertility"—the idea that African American women are more likely to be fertile and reproduce than their white counterparts. In the paper, Okolo finds that contrary to the popular narrative of "hyper-fertility", African American women are actually less likely to be fertile than whites, and have an increased likelihood to encounter fertility issues while trying to conceive.
Okolo argues that the proliferation of this misconception of blackened "hyper-fertility" was widespread even before the Civil Rights Movement, and thus its provenance has largely racist underpinnings. Despite empirical evidence suggesting the narrative was false, Okolo points out that the "hyper-fertility" narrative became so pervasive throughout American society that the phenomenon was even cited in official government documents, legislation, and reports. Okolo further argues that because of this gross mischaracterization of black fertility, African American women suffered immensely not only socially, but also when seeking out fertility treatment and resources. She substantiates such claims with interviews with former government officials in charge of instituting policies which further promulgated the supposed veracity of the narrative, and while doing so, she notices a distinct lack of voices from African American women themselves.
The paper proceeds in a chronological fashion, first beginning with a brief introduction of the narrative, and then continuing onto a discussion around the "threat" of black overpopulation in the years following the Civil Rights Movement. In Part II, Okolo builds off the fear of black overpopulation to reveal that the United States government instituted a policy of sterilization of many poor African American women. And how ultimately in Part III, the Clinton Administration further institutionalized the "hyper-fertility" narrative as a weapon to paint African American women as "Welfare Queens" in order to mass mobilize its political capital for welfare reform to achieve the Administration's paramount goal of a balanced budget.
Although Okolo presents an original, well-sourced and in many ways, captivating paper on the struggle for recognition of African American women's fertility, the paper leaves much to be desired. In many instances throughout the paper, Okolo writes in an almost polemical fashion, harshly critiquing the misguided policy that supported the basic tenets of the false "hyper-fertility" narrative. She also often injects her opinion into places where the research she cites speaks for itself, thereby undermining the legitimacy of her argument.
In aggregate, however, Okolo does an excellent job at elucidating the impact of a harmful narrative which affects many African-American women today.

Live Life Mobile Alarm Testimonials
Thank you so much!!! My mother has really become excited about this alarm as a way to stay more independent by not risking a fall without back-up. It has also meant she has talked to a couple of neighbours about helping her whereas, previously, she was quite isolated. From being confronted by the idea of an alarm suggesting she is frail, she is now seeing it as a way to prove she is strong and has organised her life with support in case things go wrong.
Really brilliant. Thanks – Jenny
The reason I purchased the LiveLife mobile alert is because I've been worried about Dad for quite a while now. A friend of a friend bought the LiveLife alert about a week ago for their Dad and the day after he received it he had a very bad fall and the alarm worked perfectly. If he hadn't had the alarm they say the outcome would not have been good at all. I also love that I can call Dad on his mobile alert any time I like. I think we'll give up on his cellphone which will basically pay for his mobile alarm. -:)
Hi there Os, just a quick courtesy note. Received unit Tuesday. Had a good read of supplied literature. Today we delivered, set unit up for 101 year old mother-in-law. Went over what unit was capable of doing with her, had lunch, came home then had much loved, centenarian give us a test run. Pleased to report " We are all relieved that help is just a push of button away". All OK.
Regards Ken
My husband is in the early stages of Alzheimers. He continues to enjoy riding his bike and I used to get very worried as he would sometimes have difficulty finding his way home. Getting him a Live Life mobile alert was the best thing we have done as now I can readily find out quickly where he is. He recently went out cycling and was gone for some time so I called him on his alert pendant. Not only could I talk with him but the Mobile Alert sent me an automatic return text showing his exact location on Google Maps. This has given me so much confidence now and allows him to continue doing what he loves.
Since I've had my mobile alarm, I feel really safe because I don't have to have my husband or friends come with me when I go out by myself. It's taken a little while to get used to this feeling of freedom & Independence. I also feel safe at home if I don't want to go out. My husband / caregiver has also gained some independence. He doesn't feel like he has to stay with me just in case I either fall or hurt myself & with suffering from many conditions, it's been hard on him because he felt like he had to be around me all the time. For both of us, having the pendant has opened many opportunities. It has really opened up our lives.
My 91-year old mother fell in the garden, fortunately on the lawn. When her mobile alarm went off, I called her on the device and she said she was OK but couldn't get up. It took me 10 minutes to get there. By that time, the sprinklers had come on and she was soaked. We had a laugh about this however it could easily have turned out very badly.
Cheers, Don.
Thanks Bill – all working well so far – one question "they are all mobile numbers is that o.k.?" Delivery was amazing – 3 days thanks so much for your help – I have a feeling you'll get more orders from Mason City. Regards Bernie
Letting you know that my neighbour had the connection that we needed, and I have the system up and running on Friday night.
Thank you so much for your help. Mum actually put the necklace on Thursday night, and has had it on the whole time over the weekend when at home – I am very impressed. We even gave it a trial run. Regards, Pat.
I bought the alarm for my mother-in-law as a gift. When we gave it to her, she loved it so much she took myself and my wife out to lunch to say thank you.
Not long ago my parent felt sick and used the help button on the pendant. A family member was able to attend to them at their house. Fortunately they were ok in the end. The alert worked when we really needed it.
Yes we tested the medical alarm and it is working fine. We are very impressed.
Thank you for your prompt service and Mom and I are very happy with the alarm and pendants, it is exactly what we needed,
Mom has really taken to the alarm Shawn. She has a habit of not answering the home phone so just being able to call her on the pendant has been great. She does seem to be more confident going out now too. It's amazing what they think of, we're really impressed. Thanks for everything.
Guys just wanted to say we received the mobile alarm yesterday and it works exactly like advertised. We should have told the neighbors we were going to test it because they all came running but at least we know it works!
Dad is really happy with his mobile alert so thanks. He likes to show it off and seems to be getting out more too. I love that I can call the pendant and talk to him when he's out and about. It's quite brilliant isn't it?
The new mobile alarm is working perfectly, we have tested it to make sure. I now just hope that I will not have to use it in an emergency!

For all the fun we have ribbing Southwest Airlines, I'm truly a WN fan. That doesn't mean I'd ever choose them over any of the other airlines that serve Philadelphia (especially when their leisure fares are often the most expensive), but the Southwest culture is laudable and should serve as an archetype to other airlines in the Untied States. Unlike some buffoons who rip Southwest without having set foot on a Southwest plane in years, I still use Southwest for intra-California travel and have nothing but praise for the pioneer low-cost-carrier.
For Philadelphia flyers, here's a promotion that may make Southwest a little more attractive:
Now through December 15 you can earn double Rapid Rewards credit on flights to/from PHL. Earn two credits for each one-way flight or 2.25 for shorthaul and three credits for longhaul (over 750 mile) flights book in Business Select.
Bonus flight credits do not count toward A-List qualification and bonus credits will post within four weeks of completing travel.
I've got too much invested in Star Alliance to deviate, but if all I wanted was to get from point A to point B and the prices were similar, I'd strongly consider taking advantage of this offer. In fact, I often book clients on Southwest flights (both long and short) simply because Southwest remains a great airline for leisure travelers–those who don't want to be nickeled and dimed and could care less about airport lounges and first class upgrades. Free drinks and a bag of peanuts or snack, a free checked bag, and being treated with respect go a long way.

Color schemes are an ever-changing, ever-evolving aspect of mobile app design. Over the past years, we have seen a shift in trends from heavy use of colors throughout mobile app elements, to more minimal use of color, with much more focused palettes being used. As well as this, there has been a move towards using more white space alongside high contrast, experimental colors. The last year or two has also seen subtle colors introduced for shadows, replacing their traditional grayscale counterparts that were previously so common. Gradients have also made their way back into mobile apps, this time using high-contrast complimentary colors to introduce a bold and visually impactful style to the user interface.
We are going to look further into eight mobile color scheme trends and discuss some inspiring examples which implement them highly effectively.
1. Minimal color usage with focused palettes
The above example highlights a trend with minimal color usage alongside an abundance of white space. This has been implemented perfectly, with a clear two-color palette which provides enough visual separation between linked and active elements, without going overboard with color. The use of color and whitespace aligns very well with Apple hardware and provides a cohesive feel between the software and hardware. It's minimal but balanced and effective – a trend which looks set to continue through 2016 and into 2017.
2. High contrast, experimental colors
With the introduction of iOS 7 a few years ago, Apple began a trend which introduced very high contrast colors into mobile user interfaces. Bright pinks, greens, royal blues, and reds are now commonplace in mobil e designs, and provide a stunning contrast which is both clear and visually impactful. This example utilises the trend effectively, giving the app an exciting yet minimal and refined feel.
3. Subtle colored shadows
Another mobile design trend that has come to fruition over the past year is the introduction of colored shadows. Where previously we would see monochrome shadows, we now often see shadows consisting bright but muted colors, such as blues, pinks, and yellows. This provides beautiful visual effect, especially when placed on a complimentary muted background color such as above.
4. Bold, bright colored iconography
In line with the trends above, it has also become commonplace to differentiate icons using bold, vibrant colors. The app above, for example, uses five separate contrasting colors to separate actions and elements. The result is an interface which is visually impactful and easy to understand.
5. Pastel, muted colors
Pastel and muted colors have been in use for a while, however we're beginning to see some really quite stunning implementations of such colors alongside other mobile trends. The results, such as above, provide great separation and balance, while maintaining a design which is a pleasure to use.
6. Blacks
While black is not technically a color, this trend at least reflects the lack thereof. The trend toward more minimal interface designs has brought with it the use of very minimal color usage, including often simply using black, white, and greys. The above is a great example of this, and uses them effectively without straying towards brutal minimalism.
7. High-contrast, complimentary gradients
Get the look: Ionicer
Gradients have changed considerably over the past few years. Where before we used to see fairly subtle same-color gradients being used for UI elements, we now see more and more designers implementing high-contrast gradients which use complimentary colors. This provides a really quite beautiful effect when used as above. The transition from blue to purple gives depth and contrast to the interface, and creates some eye -catching visual effects when combined with patterns and imagery.
8. Colorful illustrations
Illustration is becoming more abundant in mobile apps, particularly in onboarding flows. Color trends within these illustrations have progressed towards using very colorful and bold palettes. When combined with a minimal interface, this has a great contrasting effect such as above, and can really help bring a mobile app to life.

Water Treatment
We offer US5 gallon bottling plants, which are manufactured using state-of-the-art technology. The CC 1000 PLC series consists of 1 BPM to 25 BPM ranges, which has been specifically manufactured for 10 to 25 liters polycarbonate/pet. Bottles are fed to bottle holders, which tilt the bottle on top of high pressure spray which washes the bottle in 3 stages. The bottles are cleaned in the first stage with hot water detergent (temperature ranging from 55 0 C to 80 0 C), wherein the second and third stage these bottles are cleaned with ozone rise water with a concentration of 0.4 to 1 ppm of ozone.
The machine has Angular Spray for external wash of the bottle and after the cleaning stage, the bottles are put on the filling conveyor. However the complete system is enclosed in a stainless steel/glass outer casing, after which the bottle is automatically ejected out to the output conveyor.

A professor of psychology in California studied stress levels of people who watched excessive news reports about the Boston Marathon bombers. She compared their anxieties against those of people who were at the Marathon. Those who overdosed on news were much more stressed than those who attended the Marathon. The article where this study appeared is about the nation's hysterical reaction to 2 cases of ebola on our shores.
If you want to live a normal but adventure filled life, don't watch the news on television. Its purpose is not to disseminate real facts, but to raise ratings, thus ad revenues. Do we really need to remind smart women of this fact? Maybe yes and maybe no, but fact remains that TV headlines are rarely reflected in the actual story written below.
There is a little book titled 'Believing in Ourselves, The Wisdom of Women'.
A few of the wise sayings:
If you think you can, you can. And if you think you can't, you're right. Mary Kay Ash
The more I traveled the more I realized that fear makes strangers of people who should be friends. Shirley MacLaine
If you can afford it, are healthy and have time, travel the world. It is much more exciting than the evening news. Phyllis Stoller
The irony is that with all the worrying, so many of you forget to take out travel insurance which is designed to eliminate all anxiety. The Women's Travel Group caters to solo's with their share guarantee and often trips like Tuscany where there is no single supplement.

Our review | Walk-in rates | Address | Map | |
Long running Silver Sands combines a comfortable flashpacker pricepoint with a beachfront location that is also spitting distance from the heart of the Sairee Village scene.
There are a few varieties of lodgings available, with those closest to the beach being typical beach bungalow fare in two rows running back among gardens from the beach, behind that is a more modern (though apparently eight years old) two floor building, then, on the far side of the road, running further back from the beach, there are more rooms and a small swimming pool and bar. The pool, while open for all guests, is used by the dive shop during the day, and was popular with smoking, drinking guys in the evening, so personally we'd put the pool aside and swim in the ocean.
The modern polished concrete hotel-style rooms are solid value for this area of Haad Sairee. They are large and comfortable, with sliding glass doors, chilled air-con, big TVs, good WiFi and bedside lamps. The hot water bathrooms are also large, but they have a painted concrete finish which, while it probably looked good when first built, has not aged all that well. The modern building has a large flat rooftop area which, while screaming out to be a sunset bar, is actually used as a laundrymat – you are welcome though to head up there with a cold drink and a plastic chair to enjoy the sunset view to yourself.
Despite being so close to the crazy corner of Sairee village – Chopper Bar is metres away – we found the rooms here to be pretty quiet in the evening. Staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful, and if you're looking for a modern style room by the beach, Silver Sands is a good choice. The rates listed on their website are a bit higher than what we paid as a walk-in.
If full, Grand Beach next door has a couple of slightly cheaper air-con options plus a handful of wood and thatch fan-cooled bungalows which, at 700 baht, were the cheapest we saw on Haad Sairee that had an actual beach view, but the bungalows were of a considerably better standard at Silver Sands. If you're looking for a hostel, Indie Hostel is right by here and is excellent.

In Defense of Gnome 3:

– Chris' Full Disclosure –
- The majority of my work week recently has been spent in KDE.
- Chris' desktop
- The future for Qt looks bright, and like most geeks, I want to ride the wave and try to live in the future.
- Gnome Extensions concern me in the long run. Some important functionality for me in Gnome 3 is provided via extensions. The long term viability of that is quesentonalbe.
- Every time an extension works, it feels like a tiny and temporary merical.
– Summation of Common Gnome 3 Complaints –
– Gnome Developers Step Into the Spotlight –
William Jon McCann, Files developer:
Someone smart once said "Linux is just a kernel". I couldn't agree more. But in this age, it is going to take more than adding on a few tools to make a compelling operating system. It is going to take thinking seriously about the end result and making hard decisions to get there. A result that I believe the world needs more now than ever. A real choice for freedom. A choice for everyone. Time to step out of the dark ages. We, the technological elite, have been holding on to freedom too long. Effectively preventing others from enjoying it. Perpetuated by hostile dogma like the "unix way". We need to be clear. Those days are over. And it is time to share.
Sri Ramkrishna, Tizen dev, long time Gnome Contributor:
Changes to Nautilus have been met with universal unhappiness – the changes that have been made have made a lot of people unhappy. There just hasn't been anybody I've met both who are fans of GNOME 3 and critics alike who like what the current nautilus have become. People have either been silent or have encouraged the use of the 3.6 fork of Nautilus.
People have really been down on GNOME designers. While they have made some great community outreach, specifically Allen Day and Jakub Steiner have always been available to talk about their designs. Regardless, there is always this sense that whatever feedback is given will be ignored that everything is inevitable.
It's very important that we are up front on regressions. The gnome-terminal incident is a good example of this. There is no doubt that transparency is a popular feature in terminals.
I will ask module maintainers to be upfront to the release team when there is a significant regression like this. In turn, release team needs to tell the engagement team as well so that we are also ready to talk about it when it comes up.
The conclusion is, we are creating a product. But we need to act like we are creating a product. That will require closer teamwork between the various teams that we have before. I'll talk about this in another post. But we don't have everything set up for that. We have gaps, and they should be addressed.

Talk at 30th Chaos Communication Congress [30c3]
Spent a year researching X.org code and bugs.
Found trivial memory corruption bugs with many opportunities to insert random/malicious data.
Very awesome response from xsecuirty@xorg developer, 80 of the bugs fixed asap. He was very responsive and worked super hard.
Some of these bugs exist because hard drives were so tiny when X was created, they never thought about some of the interesting ways folks could load/inject data into memory.
LWN comment from OG X dev: http://youtu.be/2l7ixRE3OCw?t=11m29s – 12:41
X Client Summary: http://youtu.be/2l7ixRE3OCw?t=25m57s
One major issue on the X client side is so many X apps run with setuid to root. Making it trivial for a client side X application to abuse X flaws.
SUID (Set owner User ID up on execution) is a special type of file permissions given to a file.
Normally in Linux/Unix when a program runs, it inherits access permissions from the logged in user. SUID is defined as giving temporary permissions to a user to run a program/file with the permissions of the file owner rather that the user who runs it.
Users will get file owner's permissions as well as owner UID and GID when executing a file/program/command.
X server is in good shape, and the X11 protocol.
GLX is broken "beyond repair". (OpenGL Extension to the X Window System)
X extensions have quite a few bugs too, but not all systems have the same extensions. Trickier.
tl;dr: 80 bugs in xlib, most of them fixed. 120 bugs in the server, going to be fixed but not disclosed yet to avoid 0-day exploits. Tons of stinky code in extension modules, potentially full of bugs, but no investigations have been done, yet.

Halloween brings out the masked men and women, and for one Brooklyn bank, that meant a masked criminal. A man in a red skeleton mask stole $8,000, only to be thwarted by a Hasidic vigilante group.
The NY Post reports that 20-year-old Kevin Crawford allegedly walked into the bank Wednesday and demanded $4,000 from the teller. He made off with twice that, but was followed by a crowd and soon stopped by by Borough Park Shomrim volunteers until the police arrived. The Shomrim are organizations unarmed civilian patrols in Hasidic and Haredi neighborhoods that combat crimes like burglary, vandalism, assault, and domestic violence, as well as antisemitism.
It's hard to say if Crawford was paying deliberate tribute to Captain America's Nazi foe, or if he just thought the skeleton mask would be intimidating, but as Bleeding Cool notes, there's something especially lovely about a Red Skull (even an accidental one) defeated by Jewish civilians.

Dansville graduated 123 seniors during the 123rd commencement exercises Saturday, and although one special student was missing, he was not forgotten.
A special presentation was given in memory of Michael Murphy, who died five years ago from cycstic fibrosis. His friend Sean O'Brien tearfully read the Henry Scott Holland poem, "Death is nothing at all," then brought Murphy's mother, brother and cousin on stage to announce to them a class gift of a bench for Michael's memorial garden on the school grounds, plus a memorial tree, and a yearbook presented to the family signed by members of the class of 2012. A page in the yearbook was dedicated to Michael.
In addition to this gift, the class of 2012 presented the school with a $2,500 check for an electronic marquee. Other student speakers were salutatorian Amanda Hellwig and valedictorian Elizabeth Bondi.
Fifty-nine seniors participated in commencement exercises Saturday at Keshequa Central School in Nunda.
Valedictorian Gabrielle DiAngelo and salutatorian Alicia Calcote addressed the Class of 2012 along with commencement speaker Heather Pero, a science teacher at the school.
At the first graduation under his tenure, Superintendent Don Covell remarked that the Class of 2012 will face challenges much diff erent than their parents.
"It is indeed a different world," he said.
Pero gave graduates advice to follow as they move on to higher education, military service and careers. She encouraged the class of 2012 to show gratitude and to learn to use the phrases "thank you" and "I love you." She reminded graduates that many people helped them reach the end of their high school careers.
Other advice from Pero included setting goals and having an positive attitude. She related the story of a high school classmate who worked hard to achieve his own goals and had a positive attitude both in high
school and afterward — his classmates called him
Ten years ago, his face appeared on a Frosted Flakes box because of his accomplishments as a jet pilot in the U.S. Air Force.
"That's not bad for a little country boy from Byersville," Pero said.
She asked each graduate to write down one goal during her speech and to refer back to it often.
"Give everything you do your best effort and you will have no regrets," she said.
Family and friends observed as 122 graduates participated in commencement exercises at Wayland-Cohocton Central School's Fieldhouse Sunday.
Among the graduates, 17 are National Honor Society members, 12 were recognized by the National Technical Honor Society and one by the Business Honor Society. Superintendent Michael Wetherbee also recognized seven students who are headed to military service. Three students are enlisting in the U.S. Air Force, two in the Army, one in the Navy and one in the Air Force ROTC.
After hearing Chelsea Richey give school announcements over the
years, graduates heard her final address, during which she looked back at how much students' lives changed in middle school and high school.
Evan Englert was recognized as valedictorian and Wyatt Olney as
"Way-Co is small — kind of like a family," Olney remarked. He urged students to remember the school and community they came from as they go move on to careers, education and military service.
Two students were recognized with the Spirit of the Golden Eagle Award. The recipients, Alyssa Kimbel and Devin Cooley, were not
known until the announcement Sunday during the ceremony.

Bella Aurora creates a new line exclusively dedicated to sensitive skin.
"A study carried out in Spain found that more than 11 million people claimed to have sensitive skin. More specifically, 35.4% of women and 27.9% of men consider their skin to be sensitive or very sensitive. As a laboratory, we cannot ignore this data. That's why we engage in research to create products that best adapt to the most sensitive skin," says Susanna Roca, formulator at Bella Aurora.
New products will soon be added to this new line to support Bella Aurora's leadership in the pharmaceutical market with effective anti-dark spots treatments for the most delicate skin.
Bio10 depigmenting shock treatment, leader in the pharmacy sector according to IMS Health, is the brand's first product with a version for sensitive skin. It is specifically formulated with the needs of this skin type in mind and incorporates active ingredients with repair mechanisms for the most delicate skin.
