Sluggish when opening new windows/tabs, when resizing occurs, and when restarting after improper shut-downs
Hello, I'm a former Opera user, and I loved the browser before Opera chromium happened. The features I missed the most were the bookmarks and the infinite tab graveyard+sessions. I'm not sure Vivaldi's bookmarking system is all there yet (I dislike this panel business at least) but that's non-critical for now. Anyway, I have a few basic complaints, because I feel like there are some really basic things wrong that surely not everyone is experiencing.
I use a Surface Pro 2, running Windows 10 (Pro), 8.00GB RAM, 64-bit OS. My antivirus is Avast Internet Security, and I run Malwarebytes Free version every few days (so no real-time scanning there). I have not yet updated to Vivaldi 1.9, the version I'm using is 1.8.770.54.
OK, so (compared to Opera and Opera Chromium), Vivaldi is slow when opening up a new tab or window. It is also slow when I accidentally resize the window (it all freezes up a little) from some stupid touchpad/mouse gesture and when I subsequently re-maximize it. It is also incredibly slow at retrieving a window of multiple tabs from the Trash/tab graveyard. It is faster if I'm opening a saved session, however (but still not exactly snappy; it's at least as sluggish as opening a new window).
Other issues that may be totally unrelated or might help someone figure out my situation: I can no longer see what extensions I have. I have a few things installed (including Fair Adblocker Premium as my adblock), but when I go Tools>Extensions, it opens up a tab to show my extensions for a second and then immediately closes it out. It even winds up in the Trash, but if I try to re-open it, it still doesn't stay open. Oh yeah, another annoying thing is that sometimes the address bar of various pages I'm on will just show "vivaldi://accessibility" (or something like that, maybe the : and / are in the wrong place) instead of the URL, which is very unhelpful. ALSO also, at one point there was a page that prompted Vivaldi to tell me that it was insecure and I might get a virus from it or whatever, so I clicked on "take me back to safety" or something like that and then it completely failed to reload my window full of tabs. I could not even see the browser as such, just white text on red background (the warning). (But I was able to open up another window and eventually managed to retire the other window, then open up the problematic tab in isolation, close it, then reopen the window full of tabs I actually wanted, except it took years because of the original issue I was posting about, so I had to exit vivaldi and restart it a few times before things started working right again.)
Anyway, I will probably install 1.9 soon, so maybe all these issues will magically disappear, but maybe they won't... does any one else have these problems? Oh, I usually have a window with anywhere from 80-150 tabs open, but I use lazy-loading, so maybe only half are activated or whatever.
About Version says I'm running a 32-bit version. Is there a 64-bit version that I should have installed? (But it doesn't seem like it gives the option to pick that for Win10....)
@lepidoptery Direct Download link for 64-bit version
thank you, pesala! Well, I am now updated to the latest and most appropriate version of vivaldi, but at least I am still totally unable to see the extensions thing. I do have some installed and they are working, and I can go directly to the chrome apps store and install extensions on vivaldi that way (or at least I have before) but I can't actually do the Tools>Extensions thing because the tab just closes immediately.
@lepidoptery said in Sluggish when opening new windows/tabs, when resizing occurs, and when restarting after improper shut-downs:
when I go Tools>Extensions, it opens up a tab to show my extensions for a second and then immediately closes it out
Try opening the internal Task Manager (Menu > Tools > Task Manager or
[ESC]by default) and kill all extension's processes. Then you should be able to open the Extensions Page. Disable all of them and then re-enable one by one, closing and re-opening the Extensions Page each time to see which extension is causing the trouble. Once you find it, kill its process in the Task Manager, uninstall that extension and never use it again.
It worked, thanks!

Unearned income or unearned revenue occurs when a company receives money before the money is earned. This is also referred to as deferred revenues or customer deposits. The unearned amount is recorded in a liability account such as Unearned Revenues, Deferred Revenues, or Customer Deposits. After the amount has been earned, the liability account is reduced and a revenue account is increased.
Example 1. A lawn service company offers customers a special package of five applications of fertilizers and weed treatments for $200 if the customer prepays in March. The service will be provided in April, May, June, July, and September. When the company receives $200 in March, it will debit the asset Cash for $200 and will credit the liability account Unearned Revenues. Since these are balance sheet accounts (and since no work has yet been performed), no revenue is reported in March. In April when the first service is provided, the company will debit the liability account Unearned Revenues for $40 and will credit the income statement account Service Revenues for $40. At the end of April, the balance sheet will report the company's remaining liability of $160. The income statement for April will report that $40 was earned. The $40 entry is referred to as an adjusting entry and the same entry will be recorded in May, June, July, and September.
Example 2. A company informs a customer that a $5,000 deposit is required before it will begin work on the customer's special order. The customer gives the company $5,000 on December 28 and the company will begin work on the special order on January 3. On December 28 the company will debit Cash for $5,000 and will credit a liability account, such as Customer Deposits (or Unearned Revenues or Deferred Revenues) for $5,000. No revenue is reported in December for this special order since the company did not perform any work. When the special order is completed in January the company will debit the liability account for $5,000 and will credit a revenue account.

State and national reports signal economic growth
South Dakota State Roundup
Published October 1, 1992 | October 1992 issue
The state's Revolving Economic Development and Initiative (REDI) Fund, a $40 million fund created by taxpayer initiative in 1987, is the subject of a report issued in early September by the Governor's Office of Economic Development.
The 79 companies with loans closed for more than one year have a total of 5,165 full-time and 320 part-time jobs, more than 2,200 of which are in towns with a population of less than 5,000. Also, six loans have gone into default during the fund's five-year history.
Over the past five years, payrolls of REDI Fund companies have increased from $53 million to nearly $172 million. "That is the most dramatic indicator of the REDI Fund's success," says Mark Schuler, REDI Fund and Economic Development Finance Authority coordinator.
REDI Fund loans have been distributed in 48 different communities, with communities under 15,000 receiving 50 percent of loan dollars.
While 56 percent of REDI Fund loans have gone to expanding South Dakota companies, 25 percent of loans have been made to lure companies into the state, and 19 percent of the loans have been granted to start-up companies.
One of the startup companies, Ultra Flex, a manufacturer of polyethylene plastic sheeting, began business in March 1992 in Madison. The company, founded by four South Dakotans, has eight employees but projects to have 27 within three years of the loan closing. Company president Gary Scofield says the REDI Fund loan "was the key part of the entire package," which included a bank loan, some city financing and an equity contribution from the company.

As we all know those who love to practice misogyny don't want to see vagina's owning themselves and running free to cause rebellion and havoc upon a perfectly constructed society based on male rule and the worship of the penis. I found this out just recently at a local redneck gym ran by a redneck and his male friends. It turns out that these guys want to see women working out to create a body that is perfect for the male gaze or judgment vs for their own health or athletic standards; you see that would mean those sweaty vagina's would be free and we can't have that. We can't have that because then it would impact these men to the point of having to please someone other than themselves; and god forbid that they would actually have to figure out how to bring a woman to orgasm and finally be forced to figure out just were the effing clitoris is actually located. You see vagina's that are held in captivity by the ownership of a husband or boyfriend are just existing for the pure sake of male penetration and for the male orgasm which must come first ( pun intended ) cum first.. get it? So that is why vagina's have penetration pricing; that is how you make a wild vagina into a tame vagina because of such low pay placed on to those with wild vagina's the vagina must submit to male ownership by relationship or marriage so that the vagina can afford the basics for survival. If you give the vagina treats such as a nice wedding, diamond rings, and shopping trips with the odd holiday get-away thrown in than you are able to domesticate the wild vagina into the ways of organized misogyny. Wild vagina's like mine are considered a threat by the Gang Of Misogyny because they can tempt the other domesticated vagina's back into the wild by their love of rebellion and vibrators.
The wild vagina is free to think thoughts of it's own as it doesn't have a male owner constantly yapping and brainwashing misogynistic dogma and threats at it, that cause it to undermine it's patterns of free flowing thoughts towards things like running it's own business and writing disgusting ( fun ) blog post like this. The wild vagina will lead the domestic and tamed vagina's into thoughts of rebelling against it's male master by demanding that it's orgasmic needs must be met before male penis penetration or ejaculation, the wild vagina is the black sheep of the domestic vagina and it will cause the tame vaginas to wander outside of the male boundaries or fences placed around them to keep them in the kitchen baking apple pies, knitting and thinking about having yet another baby to fill their craving for the freedom of the unknown.
The wild vagina is the newly divorced friend of your wife or girlfriend; or her sister that refuses to settle down, when she comes a knocking she awakens the rebel within your woman causing her to think her own thoughts, want her own way. She manages to get her to recall her dreams that she put aside so that you could make your dreams top priority. The wild vagina is a gypsy that dances in the middle of the night with a bottle of wine in hand talking back to those men who tell her to be more lady like.. and she seduces the tame and domesticated vagina's to want to run free into the night. She encourages the domesticated and collared vaginas to want to orgasm and explore what is deep within the creamy swells of her own thighs.. and the misogynist thinks " What if she finds out her vibrator can give her more satisfaction that I can and those bible verses are all bullshit that I use to keep her chained to an ideal of womanhood that is based on just the pleasure of men.. what if she starts to seek out her own pleasure and thoughts?"
And so the misogynist chase away the rebellious and free vagina's to keep the white sheep in the corral and in the kitchen.. they call the wild vaginas sluts, whores and fornicators.
Off into the night the wild vagina goes with the free ass dude on his Harley that knows never to tame the wild vagina's because they are the best kind.
For the dumb ass people who don't get this post it is pure sarcasm. It is to show the stupidity of society when it comes to women's sexuality, as to how threatening single women can be treated and judged by scared and ignorant men as well as jealous women who have internalized male misogyny by being constantly brainwashed by misogynistic dogma or even religion.
Keep the vagina's wild and free my friends and to those domesticated vagina's you know how much you love your gypsy friends.

"The First Breath You Take After You Give Up" Videos
Can't afford to lose my head.
Can't afford to lose my cool.
You'll blow them all in king dumbcum.
Can't afford to lose my tease,
I just aim to please.
Feel like a no-tell motel painting,
out of place or ignored.
It's all medals and trophy's, trophy's and medal
and all before the race has been run.
take off your mask,
it too much to ask??
Go on
Und give it a try
Or kiss
Your ass goodbye
Autobiographical anonymous.
A cotillion of friction on my jurisdiction.
It's a lovely disguise with the wandering eyes.
I get high,
now you've got something to look up to.
Trouble's a mangy stray dog,
play with it once, then it follows you home.
It's all "have nots,
have nones,
hey can I have some's?"
Until I've had enough
Yet I've had none.
take off your mask,
it into the trash...
Go on
und give it a try
or kiss
your ass goodbye.
Suddenly it gets easy.
The sun goes down.
The long arm of important things
disappears in her gown.
You finally drop
the knife,
forget you ever h....
It's such a good
ain't forever.
It feels so good to give up, give in...
her arms.
I know it hurts.
It hurts to be young.
Metamorphosis is pain, I know.
I said it hurts to be young.
Gotta learn every goddamn thing.
You gotta hack your way through,
and realize...it's almost entirely lies.
But then you'll begin to smile.
Smile for me, real.
Then you accept what you are.
The transforming is done.
You've become...absorbed into, and you know.
I think I know what to do.

Posing with his pride and joy when it finally got to oar yard. Left to right: Crane operator, Donny Greene, my husband, Carlyle and semi driver, Willy Bakkestuen.
What a wife has to go through when her husband is a gas engine nut! It didn't take me long after we were married to learn I had to either leave him or join him in his hobby. After 137 gas engines, 8 light plants (Heavy-Heavy), 5 tractors, stone crushers, and everything else that goes along with this hobby, you can guess that I decided to join him in this endeavor. It's amazing how the good times outnumber all the greasy clothes, smashed fingers, back aches, pulled chest muscles and headaches that seem to go along with this hobby.
The following is the story of how we acquired and brought home just one of my husband's pride and joys. We call her Big Bertha. (I really don't know how it became a her.) Just how my husband gets all the 'hot tips' about an engine stuck in the mud here or one sitting in a shed rusting away over there is beyond me.
Big Bertha is a 25 horse power Fairbanks-Morse diesel engine. It's the biggest one in my husband's collection. Big Bertha weighs 6,000 pounds. The glow plug has to be heated by blow torches before the flywheels can be turned.
After many trips and phone calls to New Hartford, Minnesota, not to mention the dickering, my husband finally purchased Big Bertha. It didn't take long after that to get the wheels in motion in order to get Bertha to her new resting spot.
Big Bertha was used in an old mill which by now had started to collapse on top of her. Trees were growing all around her. She was really quite stuck in that old mill. Did any of this make my husband give up? Not on your life! A crane was hired from Modern Crane of La Crosse, Wisconsin. A flat bed and tractor was acquired to haul her home. The crane had to follow so to unload Bertha once we got to our destination. Two weeks went by before all the details were worked out; the big day was soon here.
Mr. Lester Greene of La Crosse, an avid gas engine fan and our photographer for the day, took the pictures in this article. It was a dreary, drizzling day but the pictures turned out excellent.
Thanks to crane operator Donny Greene of Onalaska, Wisconsin, Lester's son, it took hardly any time at all to get Bertha out of the mill. You can tell by the pictures that the grass was a little slick from the rain. But nothing was going to stop us now! The whole part of getting Bertha out of the mill and on to the flat bed took 45 minutes.
Mr. Lester Greene and I arrived home in the town of Shelby by 2 o'clock. Half of our neighborhood was waiting in my yard. When you have a hobby like this one without much room to store things inside, most of it ends up sitting outside in the yard. Many of our neighbors enjoyed the sound of the engines with their 'hit and miss' action. (As long as the noise stopped by 10 p.m.) One of our neighbors, Terry Griffel, was also stricken by the gas engine bug. In just three short months, he is the proud owner of four engines.
About 4 o'clock, the semi and trailer, driven by Willy Bakkestuen, another gas engine nut, and the crane following turned the corner on our block. Big Bertha was almost to her new resting ground. She was set down to rest on the side of the driveway.
The next few months that followed many people stopped to inquire about Big Bertha. As time went by and my husband acquired even more engines, the space in our garage was minimal. The car and truck hadn't been put in the garage for over a year. We soon realized we needed more room if this hobby was to continue. We soon purchased 7? acres of land in the country only nine miles from where we were now. There was a 20 X 40 steel building already on this land.
We moved engines and parts every weekend. After two years went by (and the shed was rearranged and rearranged to get just two more engines inside), my husband could not stand being nine miles away from his 'toys'. We decided to go even further in debt to build a house nearby on the same land.
At the time of this writing, we are settled in our new home. It took only 3 pickup loads to move all the furniture and household paraphernalia. But when it came to moving the rest of the engines, packing up tools and everything else jammed into that one garage, it seemed to take forever. Many parts and pieces are still unfound. Naturally, Big Bertha was the last engine to be moved.
Plans are under way to build another 36 X 40 shop next to the steel building. All the tractors, stone crushers and several big engines are still sitting outside. Being located right on Highway 14-61, many people stop to look and talk engines. If you are ever in the La Crosse-Coon Valley area, stop in and visit. Next to collecting engines, my husband enjoys talking about engines.
We are currently planning for the Coulee Antique Engine Show to be held in Viroqua, Wisconsin on June 21 and 22. I doubt if Big Bertha will be there but my husband and I will be there with many of 'OUR' engines. Hope to see many gas engine fans there.

I no longer have a Spiders replica jersey (sold it years ago) but I still have a picture of it. The Spiders played in the IHL for one season 1995-96 at the Cow Palace (same arena as the Shamrocks from decade before).
When I had it I was thinking of customizing it as one of my favourite players, who was the player/coach for the team but never did.
Here's a pic of the front and back of a game worn Langway jersey.
The Spiders were going to move to Victoria, B.C. but the deal fell though due to Victoria not replacing it's aging arena.

4/5 aardvarks
Format: Picture book
Ages: 2-5
Author and illustrator: Britta Teckentrup
Publisher: Nosy Crow (published August 2015)
Pages: 24
It's Ellie's bath time.
Can you help her make some waves?
Ellie the elephant is enjoying her bath, accompanied by her rubber ducky, when she is joined by an uninvited visitor: a bright green crocodile splashes in to join her. Then a flamingo turns up. And then…a tiger! At last, when it seems the bath cannot possibly fit another creature, a mouse joins the party. What's a poor elephant to do?
Little fans of Press Here, Tap the Magic Tree, and other interactive picture books will enjoy this simple, sweet picture book with its bright collaged images and its invitation to the reader to tilt the book this way and that to make waves for Ellie to ride and (every kiddo's favourite part — or at least my kids') to shout, "Get out, Crocodile!" The book features lovely attention to detail, from the spot gloss on the water to give it some sheen to the droplets on the last page. Get Out of My Bath! is simple but definitely a winner. And best of all, it's suitable for kids of different age groups — Little E (four) and Tiny J (just turned two) have been loving reading this one before bed for the past week. If you're walking past our house around seven, you're pretty much guaranteed to hear a very loud "Get out, Crocodile!"

Taking a break
We're taking a break moving shop and hope to be back soon. We hope to start shipping orders in Nov 2018.
The Pololu basic relay carrier modules allow simple control of a single-pole, double-throw (SPDT) switch from low-voltage, low-current control signals. This item includes the basic carrier PCB with a soldered-in 5 V relay, 5.0 mm terminal blocks for the switch connections, and straight 0.1" male header for the control connections. The included power relay is an Omron G5LE-14-DC5 and is rated for up to 10 A under most conditions.
The Pololu basic relay carrier modules make it easy to control a single-pole, double-throw (SPDT) switch from low-voltage, low-current control signals. The modules are available with 5 V and 12 V power relays - Omron G5LE-14-DC5 and G5LE-14-DC12 (1MB pdf), respectively.
The carrier board is available without the relay or connectors for those preferring to use their own relays that have the common "sugar cube" pinout and footprint.
The carrier board routes the three relay control pins to 0.1-spaced pins compatible with standard solderless breadboads and female servo cable connectors. The assembled version of this board has a 0.1" straight male header soldered to these pins while the partial kit version includes 8x 1 straight and right angle 0.1" male header strips that can optionally be broken into 3x 1 pieces and soldered in. The relay switch pins are routed to a set of large pads intended for use with a 3-pin 5mm-pitch terminal block and a set of smaller pads with a 0.2 pitch, making them compatible with 0.1" perfboards.
The assembled version of this board has a terminal block soldered to these pins while the partial kit version includes a 3-pin terminal block that can be optionally soldered in. The carrier board has four mounting holes that work with #2 or M2 screws.

This section written around 1940 . . . A Naturalist in Costa Rica, by Alexander Skutch (click link for my book list) - the most influential naturalist to wander the forest and hills of Costa Rica.
Alexander also traveled to the only place a Costa Rican army had marched to in anger in 1856 - Rivas, just north of the Costa Rican border, in Nicaragua.
Alexander Skutch and many ex-pats/gringos etc felt as comfortable as I do with the idea that armies are unnecessary if you can get the circumstances working in the right direction and be at one with the ecology. Once there was an army BTW, but they were abused by the government in an effort to circumvent a democratic election in 1948.
|Don Pepe Figueres, Revolutionary/Idea
From Wiki: "abolishing the army (as a precaution against the militarism that has perennially thwarted or undercut democracy in Central America) Figueres said he was inspired to disarm Costa Rica by H.G. Wells "Outline of History", which he read in 1920 while at MIT. "The future of mankind cannot include armed forces. Police, yes, because people are imperfect.", he declared.
From a local message board, the question was asked,
"Is Costa Rica ready for a Swiss style Army?"
|At a Costa Rican Tope
Ticos should go with their strengths, which is to party hearty. What would happen if a Nicaraguan invasion force was met at the border with 100 tico cimarrona bands armed with several thousand cases of Cacique? My guess is that any red-blooded Nicaraguan soldier would lay down his arms and join in the merriment. --Steve, trying to keep his sanity in S. Rafael de Heredia
So I'll continue with my disconnected musings on a Costa Rican Army. For CR to need an army it needs to really upset someone else. There is no right side of THAT equation in Costa Rica. This discussion prompted me to do a first hand survey with 5 Ticos who happened to be standing around having breakfast today. The question was simply, "give me your first reaction to an army in CR?"
|Gringos at a Tico Wedding
One respondent, obviously new to Costa Rica opined some time back, "I am wrinkling my eyebrows now at the thought that CR has no army. Do you really feel safe there? I mean, there are ideologies that seek to dominate the world and it seems to me that CR has no way to defend herself. Don't you feel terribly vulnerable?"
I pondered, "Um for the life of me I can't see why any country would "take over" Costa Rica today? In a world of city states (lets say circa 1456 a.d.) there was a great need to accumulate more cities and territories in part because a city state was non viable and needed some economies of scale, room to graze more cows, score additional slaves or just vent the frustrations of young men with too much aggression or allow old men to score points. Nobody takes over other countries any more (well ALMOST nobody). Its truly passe, makes a mess of the local landmarks, interrupts the only thing that separates us from cavemen (schooling) and pisses off the neighborhood."
|Nicaraguan Troops getting Wet On The Border
The idea continues today with our current president Laura Chin -chilla. The country responds to aggression in peculiar and hilarious ways (link to blog posting on the border incident) - Nicaragua stole a bit of land from Costa Rica and Costa Rica thinks of it as a "fire on the border" and sent 14 fire fighters to patrol the fire.
|Costa Rican Firefighters Preparing to deploy to the border
I can only smile. Skutch's words ring out today 70 years later "But I wished to do more than learn facts about living things that surrounded me here; I wished to dwell in harmony with them"

Well, it's been a little while since I've written and there's a perfectly good reason why. 'Perfectly good' in that it's a reasonable excuse, but also rather, how shall we say, stupid.
You see, I was in my bathroom a couple weeks ago with approximately 8,000 of those green plastic army men. I had been using them to stage mock-battles with my Great Mazinga and Mego Star Trek dolls, but growing tired of that, I decided to glue them into a giant-life sized green plastic army man as I'm rather lonely.
So very lonely.
At any rate, there I was in the bathroom with a lot of green plastic army men and a tub of industrial glue. I was also just wearing my Captain America underwear, which is pertinent, but a tale best saved for later. I had just mixed up the glue when I stepped on one of the little grenade throwing guys and fell over, in the process dropping the glue.
Which I landed in.
I must have also knocked myself out, because when I came to, I discovered I'd more-or-less glued myself face up on the floor. I had one arm free, which came in handy later, but the rest of me was firmly stuck. In hindsight, I should have probably just wrenched myself up before the glue had really set, but at the time I felt that keeping the skin on my back was really, really important.
So, yes, there I was. After a few futile attempts to get up, I resigned myself to chipping slowly away at the glue with one of the bazooka plastic army men. Oh, it wasn't all bad. I had plenty of green plastic army men to play with and thanks to being near the open cabinet, could detach the water line if I needed a drink.
Sadly though, without food, I was forced into cannibalism.
Yes, I had to eat many of my green plastic army men. I felt badly about it, but I explained to them in great detail that in this situation, the needs of the one (myself) outweighed the needs of the many (them). Oh, there were protests, but in the end they nobly sacrificed themselves so that I could slowly chip my way out of the glue.
I am now fully free and aside from some spectacularly unpleasant (and green) bowel movements, seem to be doing well. I do have a large slab of glue still stuck to my back and my few remaining green plastic army men seem to have mutinied, as I can't find them.
So there you have it. I have learned my lesson and the next time I decide to play with industrial strength adhesives and green plastic army men, I will wear a helmet. And have food on hand.
Lots and lots of food.

And, here is the video!
I thought I'd share a few pics from a little road trip we took last week. While there we visited my Aunt and Uncles house, and they had THE most adorable puppies. Take a look!
I have complete dog fever right now! I was wanting to wait till the little was not a baby, and sadly that day is here. He is a little man now, walking, talking (ish... lol), and starting to entertain himself so much more. Plus in our new house we have a nice yard and a park across the road. Sigh. :) I'm not sure about a puppy though as cute as they are! I think I'd like a 2-3yr old dog instead, so if the stars align I wouldn't turn one down that's for sure!
I just love Samoyeds, and we had one when I was a little girl too.. :)

The report, from a consultant to the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy, found that government anti-drug ads aimed at adults do work but suggested that problems with the kids' ads may need additional study.
Even so, the Partnership for A Drug-Free America and the White House drug office last week blamed each other. The Partnership oversees the creation of the drug-office ads, which are done pro bono by various agencies; media is purchased by WPP Group's Ogilvy & Mather, New York, although that business is up for review.
Congressional staffers said the Partnership and the drug office will square off as soon as next month, when Congress looks to reauthorize the ad program, supported with $600 million in tax money over the past four years.
The drug office wants "to box out" the Partnership, one congressional staffer familiar with the fight said last week, in describing statements made to the The Wall Street Journal by John P. Walters, director of the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy criticizing past advertising.
U.S. Rep. Rob Portman, R-Ohio, co-chair of the House speaker's anti-drug task force, in a statement last week suggested the campaign may have "lost its way" not because of creative but because the drug office has spent too little on advertising. "We know the media campaign was initially effective, but may have lost its way as its focus shifted away from ad buys" to promotion and research.
In an interview, Mr. Walters denied wanting to lessen the Partnership's involvement and said he just wants to improve the ads. He said he feels getting the drug office more involved during the Partnership's creative process will improve results.
"I'm disappointed," he said of the study, which showed the kids' ads may even have had negative effects. "We have to fix it. I believe that advertising can be an important tool in fighting drugs and that we can make it effective. We have to retain the confidence of the public."
Drug office officials said one of the problems in the past has been that because it is the Partnership that produces creative briefs and talks to agencies, ads sometimes got produced that weren't tailored to goals and later need to be changed. At one point last year, nearly a year's worth of planned strategies had to be altered because the ads didn't come in on time, an ad agency dropped out or ads tested badly.
some results
The ads that have produced the best results are the anti-terrorism ads Ogilvy produced outside the Partnership structure (AdAge.com QwikFIND aan12d). "The reason they were so effective is we were involved on almost a daily basis back and forth with creatives," said Alan Levitt, director of the drug office ad program.
Partnership officials said the problem wasn't the ads or the creative process. They said the strategy, lack of spending on individual messages and the bureaucratic approval procedures hampered creative development during the two years of ads the report examined. Instead of relying on the Partnership's expertise in determining what works, the drug office developed its own strategy, ignored the Partnership's warnings and requested ads that didn't work as well, Partnership officials said.
"It's a Byzantine process to develop the ads that takes 39 weeks, and then there is not enough media weight and they are not getting the right messages, because they are asking for highly nuanced message strategy," said Partnership President-CEO Steve Pasierb. He said that because the drug office wants to test the ads for two months before they air, the entire process can actually take over a year.

recently i had windows xp on my lenovo laptop and for wifi and all concerns i switched to windows 7. But due to 512mb ram in the laptop the laptop is responding very slow and now i want to switch back to windows xp but when i m trying to intall XP.. while selecting partition i m not getting format partition but delete option..But i have data on other drives too..I dont want to make a clean installation.. So please help me to install Xp over Windows 7 without touching the other drives.
"Never change your originality for the sake of others"..
Because no one can play your role better than you..
You are the Best when 'You are You"!
.I dont want to make a clean installation..
You have no choice but to do a clean install. You cannot do an in-place install of an earlier version of Windows.
However, you do not need to delete all partitions, just the one containing Windows 7. If there is any data on this partition copy it to one of the other other partitions before you start.
Delete that partition and any recover partition that Windows & may have created. this is usually a 100 Mb partition right at the beginning of the disk. Create a new partition and install Windows XP.
You will have to reinstall all applications regardless of which partition they are stored one.
Yeah, you need to be careful which partitions you delete. The xp disk might see the drive letters differently than 7. I just did an XP-over-7 install the other day. The xp disk was seeing the 100 meg partition as drive C: and the one with windows 7 on it was drive D:. I deleted D: thinking that after the xp install it would be seen as C: and the 100 meg one wouldn't show but that wasn't the case. My xp was showing as installed on D:. So I redid it and deleted both partitions and the install went to C:.
If you have additional data partitions on the drive they will probably be listed after the OS partition. But just to make sure, before doing anything, check the drive sizes in windows 7 and match them with what the xp disk shows. That'll make it less likely you'll delete the wrong ones.
Oh another thing. Is it possible you have an xp restore partition on it already? If there was one and you didn't delete it when you installed 7 then it should still be there. You might check the system manual if you're not sure.
Be willing and careful to copy "all" personal files ("stuff" you wouldn't wish to lose) to external storage - typically dvd and/or an external hard drive. And verify the copies are accessible on at least one other working system.
I strongly advise this for all data regardless of which partition it currently resides on...
That way you reduce the risks of losing any of that "stuff" during your re-install of XP...

Loving to Dance
This is just one of the new release images being showcased on the All Dressed Up blog today! Be sure and stop by there to see all the other wonderful new images!! This little lady is named Love To Dance and you can find her in the All Dressed Up SHOP.
Very seldom will you see me make a girly type card and even when I do I don't add flowers or things like that to it. Mainly because every time I do it just never looks right. I did have some sheer ribbon and some feminine type paper though so thought I'd work with that in mind. The paper is from My Minds Eye - sorta reminds me of wallpaper! LOL!! But, it's pretty! I colored the image in Copics and then sponged around it with Antique Linen. The sentiment is from Inkadinkado and was stamped on Kraft paper - which is also the card base. The little charm was added after attaching the ribbon, bow, and sentiment.
I'll enter this in the challenge at Pixie's Crafty Workshop (snippets - ribbon and Kraft paper for the sentiment) and at Sweet Stamps (anything goes).
Stop over at All Dressed Up to see all the new releases. There's also a challenge going on there right now so be sure and check out all the details and enter.

I'm loving that paper (got some not used yet!- you're reminding me to hunt it up) and I bought it cause it reminded me of old fashioned wall paper. (prettier than a lot I see nowadays!)

However, I think that those of us in the field have little to contribute about the ongoing issues of validity regarding the NALS and ALL instruments. From a practical standpoint, it is an argument among statisticians, researchers and policy makers, and no literacy practicitioner I know is equipped to discuss the issue intelligently, including me. But I do think his comments underscore a serious problem we have throughout the field of adult ed: the need to come to a place of common ground in defining concepts such as "literacy", "reading", "adult education", "proficiency", and "measurement". This is a reflection of the challenge of putting research into practice, and of practice informing research. Rightly or wrongly, the statistics from the NALS are in wide use and have been for some time, and from where I sit have helped, not hindered, the case for more services. I expect and hope the ALL will do the same thing. Having said that, because I respect Tom's expertise, I always use the NALS numbers with the caveat that the figures may be too high or too low, stressing that a person's proficiency is always a matter of context, and therefore shifts across a continuum. No single measurement or instrument can capture those dynamics. On the other hand, a major practical problem for practitioners, as alluded to in a previous post I offered in this discussion, is that the NALS certainly masked the prevalence and seriousness of the reading problem many adults struggle with. Hence the good news of two categories "below basic". It seems to me the ALL has been constructed with a lot of input from the field on this issue, and therefore must be an improvement, not a continued muddying of the waters.

Summary on GoodReads.
$3.99 on Kindle
What a romantic master piece!
Love in the times of pain.
As I read, I couldn't stop thinking back to when I was 15 :-)
The story doesn't really have a plot that I can discuss without giving it away. From my perspective, the book is about two broken people that find love. How they found love is different from other love stories out there.
I have to add, awesome cover and perfect summary.
The book reminded of me of The Fault in Our Stars because of the language/conversations. Well, I don't remember taking so... smartly when I went to high school... but then, I didn't have internet or cell phones. All I had was a cassette walkman! Yes, I am that old :-)
Little by little, we learn why Nastya is trying to destroy herself... but why take Josh with her?
I didn't give the book the whole 5-stars because I couldn't grasp the purpose of what Nastya did with/to Josh. I'm not going to say more because I really don't want to give anything away. But that little part there was kind of absurd for me.
Is there really something like a sugar rush? I eat ice-cream and sweets like crazy... but I never have experienced anything of the sort...
Besides that, I was completely in love with the story. I hope the book is picked for a movie :-) because it will make a very powerful one.

When I first met this little guy, he gave me so many kisses on my face that I could barely breathe! That's when I knew I had to bring him home. And now that's he's starting to get a little bigger, he's trying to give everyone hugs too! And who wouldn't want a kiss or a hug from that face?
Hi my name is Behr. I love to cuddle with my mom and dad. I love being outdoors, and running around with my friends. But my favorite activity to do is trim trees from my Grandmas backyard. Im not a strong swimmer but Im still learning!
KiKi is a 15 week old mastiff mix. Her father is a Fila Brasileiro and her mother is a Boxer. She is very energetic and enjoys chewing on rawhides, playing with her brother and sister and lounging on tile floors, as well as the cat bed she no longer fits in!
Skuggi (Icelandic for Shadow) is our too-smart-for-us rescue dog. We got him when he was a little over a year old because his previous family got tired of bailing him out when he escaped. He knows how to open dead bolt locks, refrigerators and child safety locks. He is a part-lab that doesn't like to swim or play fetch but we love him still.

Building solidarity between generations
It was an honor to be given the opportunity to address the National Federation of Filipino-American Association members during the welcome plenary session in their recent national convention held in Detroit Michigan, August 2-5, 2012. I have never envisioned at my age of 18 that I would be privileged to be seated in the podium with the NaFFAA President Ed Navarro, Consul General Leo Herrera Lim and Philippine Director of Tourism Vernie Morales to speak about solidarity. I also met the Philippine Ambassador to the USA, Jose Cuisia Jr, the keynote speaker at the event as well as many accomplished civic leaders around the country and internationally.
I have composed articles, poems and speeches since I was nine, but there are still subjects of great importance to me that I find myself at a loss for what to say. Maybe because the passion that I have for a specific topic – that I want to lend to my writing is a bit overpowering or maybe it is because the significance of what is at stake demands that I be ultra careful in finding the right words.
In the few weeks prior to the conference, I sent out articles about how I view SOLIDARITY— which was the theme of the conference. They were published in several newspapers including this newspaper. I wrote those articles because I know it is an important subject -that may appear simple to talk about, but to me, is very complicated. It required a lot of dissecting and then re-assembling in my head.
More time was required than I was allotted to speak at the conference.
In one of my earlier articles, I talked about the invisible bonds that connect us to each-other. How we are all linked through our ancestry, our humanity, and our patriotism to our place of birth. But I believe those bonds only manifest themselves in noteworthy ways through communication of shared interest, of common goals – and the ability of two individuals, two groups, and the older and younger generation to effectively talk to one another.
In my speech, I spoke about universal languages any group can adopt. A warm smile and shake of a hand that says "welcome to this conference". Our ability to let somebody in on and observe the successes of group members or empathize with their sorrows and grief go a long way towards cultivating a culture of oneness. I believe that we need to do more of that with our fellow human beings, and with our friends and family.
I believe that no one's beliefs should be treated as if they don't have value, no one's passionate response should be ignored, and no-one should feel left out of the group to which they play a vital role. Instead, we should endeavor to reach a compromise that incorporates some, if not all, of everybody's most salient points. I believe that we should always walk away with a healthy respect even for the individuals whose ideas we could not quite settle with.
For example, young members of one's community may share a flurry of excited voices and harbored opinions. But adult members should not just dismiss these as childish. Conciliation and negotiation are stuff of the real world and real life – skills that young people should be learning how to use effectively if they are to prepare for leadership roles someday.
Any group, including NaFFAA, needs to get the youth talking to each other about things they have in common, even if it is unrelated to the group's mission. That way, you are building a network that will eventually allow that group to pull these youth in — in the future.
I also believe that we should look at information technology as an important tool in building solidarity. I believe that money raised and invested in technology is worth it. Technology can significantly help in communicating with and empowering its members which are important to building cohesion and unity.
I believe that we should also keep in mind that within a group, there is enormous diversity or differences – in age, upbringing, culture or behavior norms, political views, etc. I know because I have relatives that are rich and poor; scholars and developmentally delayed, conservative and liberal, sociable and introverted, born leaders and born followers – but the important thing is that no matter who the person is – that we treat everyone with dignity and respect – including the younger generation.
Finding solidarity within a family, a group, a nation, a race – it means acknowledging the fact that the ground will not always be… well, solid. It is only by taking and giving that we will stop ourselves from hurtling over one edge or another. To nurture a culture of solidarity, we will have to absorb new thoughts and may need to let go of some old ones. I believe that it is important to build a culture that is responsive, flexible, adaptive, and also ready to accommodate chaos as an opportunity to improve and make a better, more solid community, society, family.
I thank and give honor to those groups that give young people a voice, an opportunity for their thoughts and ideas to be heard.

Well, what can I say? It was an interesting night. There I was, painting my sweet picture of a Porsche and composing a song made up exclusively of my armpit farts when this giant meat-head bust down my door and came right into my room. I wasn't particularly scared as my parents often selected my babysitters by going down to the gas station and asking the first transient they ran into.
I returned to playing my video game and I think that this stranger in my room started to experience post-traumatic stress disorder and began to sweat profusely and become jittery. Then the weirdest thing happened - he disintegrated!! Yeah, I know, crazy shit.
When my parents got home they had mixed emotions - angry that I was all alone for the whole night, but happy they didn't have to pay a babysitter.
And if you don't believe me, our security camera system at our house captured the whole thing:

Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Peter Dinklage, Emilia Clarke, Gwendoline Christie, Nathalie Emmauel and Kit Harington from 'Game Of Thrones' in the press room at the 70th annual Emmy Awards held at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles.

The 'Game of Thrones' star called on Marvel to lead the way and help boost LGBT representation in Hollywood.
Kit Harington has called on Marvel to lead the way in increasing LGBT representation in the TV and film industry by casting more gay actors.
The 31 year old actor says that he thinks the issue behind Marvel's hesitance to cast an openly gay actor as one of its flock of superheroes stems from a perception that masculinity and homosexuality are incompatible.
Diversity in Hollywood and the entertainment industry has been a hot-button topic in 2018, and over the last 18 months significant steps forward have been taken, with Black Panther and Wonder Woman being two of the biggest blockbusters in that time-frame. However, on the LGBT front, there's not been a similar breakthrough.

Filming on the battle scenes has been taking place for 55 consecutive days.
Though not much is known about the final season of 'Game of Thrones' - which will consist of the HBO fantasy series' last six 90-minute episodes - we do know that it's going to be a violent and chaotic affair. That was confirmed earlier this year when filming started on what will be the biggest battle scenes the show has ever seen.

Likely seeing the Night King's army of the dead go up against those fighting to keep the Seven Kingdoms under the control of the living, the scenes were being filmed over 55 consecutive days in Northern Ireland. That's something that series assistant Jonathan Quinlan took to Instagram to talk about, calling the team that put the scenes together "the Night Dragons" and explaining how they had to endure "the cold, the snow, the rain, the mud, the sheep s*** of Toome and the winds of Magheramorne."

Kit Harington has played Jon Snow in 'Game of Thrones' ever since the series started on HBO.
The writing's been on the wall for a while now: 'Game Of Thrones' is coming to an end. With just six episodes to go in the show's conclusive eighth season, fans will finally get to see how the story is brought to a close next year. With cast recently reading the scripts for the final episodes and doing some dramatic table readings, it's only a matter of time until we discover what's planned for Jon Snow (Kit Harington), Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke), Arya Stark (Maisie Williams), and the rest of the characters we've fallen head over heels in love with over the past few years.
Kit Harington has starred as Jon Snow in 'Game of Thrones' since 2011
Harington in particular has proven to be a major fan-favourite, working as a lead character of the series since its debut all the way back in 2011. Despite all of the love for Jon however, and the fact that a number of spinoffs are in development behind-the-scenes at HBO, he's not somebody who will be returning to the franchise when these six 'GoT' episodes have come to an end.

Durrumu Arts, Peppimenarti - Art Collector
|Issue 70, October - December 2014
|Helen McKenzie discovers the intricate abstract paintings of the artists at Durrmu Arts – a technique inspired by traditional patterns of weaving.
|R Wilson, Syaw fish net, acrylic on linen, 200 x 120cm. Courtesy: the artist and Durrumu Arts
|Durrmu Arts is located at Peppimenarti, 300 kilometeres south west of Darwin. It was founded as a permanent settlement for the Ngan'gikurrunggurr people in the 1970s. Harold Wilson and his wife Regina Pilawuk Wilson were the driving force behind the establishment of the community. Born in Peppimenarti country, Harold was removed from his family and sent to government institutions as a child. He decided to return as an adult with family, to set up a permanent settlement that is now home to 200 people.
Durrmu refers to the body painting of dots for ceremonial purposes. Arts Centre Manager Rikki Lovell says: "Durrmu Arts is renowned for the beauty of its artists' semi-abstracted weaving designs. The artists have pioneered a tradition of evocative tones and meticulous line work, which makes them so attractive and collectable. There is a palpable warmth to the Durrmu aesthetic, the result of rich, deep colour and intricate repeated patterns."
The artists started painting weaving works in 2001. Weaving is still very much part of the artists' practice; baskets and sculptures made from sand palm and pandanus materials, dyed using roots and berries, are highly collectable. Art dealer Michael Reid says the centre and its leading artist Regina Pilawuk are "amazing to work with, really straight forward and are a good example of what can be achieved."
Regina Pilawuk is the best known of the Durrmu artists. In 2003 she won the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Award and was a finalist in the Art Gallery of New South Wales Wynne Prize in 2008 and 2009. Her works are informed by the weaving skills she was taught as a 12-year-old by her mother and grandmother. She began transcribing weaving-based imagery in painting around 2001. Her work is in the collections of The British Museum, The Art Gallery of New South Wales in Sydney, The National Gallery of Victoria, The Gallery of Modern Art in Queensland, as well as many private and corporate collections.
Patsy Marfurra, who passed away earlier this year, was an accomplished weaver, particularly of dilly bags. On canvas she is known for her bold stripes and dotted markings. Harriet Fesq, who has written a doctorate on the history of people of Peppimenarti says: "Patsy's work stood out as it is bold and gestural. She predominantly painted ceremonial women's body painting. A career highlight was when she was nominated as a finalist for a suite of works in the Xstrada Art Awards in 2008."
Fesq suggests that collectors watch out for emerging artists at the centre, including Anne-Carmel Nimbali Wilson, Anastasia Naiya Wilson, Rosina Tirak and Miriam Byrnes. "Anastasia Naiya Wilson has been given the right to paint her mother's totem and story; dingo Dreaming. The non-figurative work is made up of very fine dot painting in ochre colours on a black ground and is a weaving design."
Lovell says the artists have recently been instructed by Lilly Roy to relearn "the traditional method of twinning with bush vine. This had been forgotten due to missionary contact in the Daly River region in the 1940s."

Football, Universities and Students: formulating an action plan for Academic Freedom
The Council for Assisting Refugee Academics (CARA) and Para Siempre FC are excited to be participating in the Beyond Borders International Universities Football Tournament. CARA in collaboration with Para Siempre FC will be running a workshop; 'Football, Universities and Students: formulating an action plan for Academic Freedom' that aims to discuss with and familiarise international student footballers to the notions of academic freedom and the mediums in which to promote it.
CARA was established in 1933 in response to the persecution of academics across Europe by fascist regimes. It was founded by leading figures such as Sir William Beveridge; Lord Rutherford; John Maynard Keynes; A V Hill, Lionel Robbins; and Margery Fry.78 years on, CARA awards grants to enable Refugee Academics to achieve employment in the UK at a level commensurate with their skills and experience in the long term. Academics are frequent targets of state-sponsored violence and repression. In times of conflict, academics and intellectuals often suffer intimidation, torture, and imprisonment.
Para Siempre F.C. is a one-of-a-kind football team, sponsored by CARA, comprises of academics, lecturers, postgraduates and undergraduates from an array of social and cultural backgrounds. Their aim is simple yet powerful; campaigning for the right of children to have an education. Para Siempre F.C. are using football as a universal language to promote sustainable education for those in the most impoverished regions of the world, to facilitate support for existing educational charities and maintain development through schemes of self-sufficiency.
CARA and Para Siempre FC will openly discuss any issues surrounding academic freedom and to present recommendations, activities and campaign designs to promote academic freedom. Our intention is to produce a collaborative report on the outcomes of the issues discussed to at the workshop to be published by CARA and distributed to Universities, students and football teams across the globe.
CARA believes that with initiatives such as Beyond Borders can create a formidable grassroots medium to promote academic freedom on a global scale. We hope that the students will be able to return to their countries will a clear idea of how to facilitate and support academic freedom.

From Jerusalem, the eternal undivided capital of God, Torah, and Israel.
About a boy, his Torah, and the big bad world.
Tuesday, October 11, 2005
So I caved and finally created a blog. I'm pretty sure I created one a couple of years ago but never used it and can't even remember where it was hosted or what username I created, et al. I also had a DeadJournal (and later a LiveJournal) for a couple of years which was basically a blog, I guess. There was also CUCommunity/CampusNetwork, of which I was a regular contributor, an elite member, in fact. Hopefully this blog gets some use. I'm not feeling the Ruach HaKodesh right now to write, so I just submit this short introduction to the things I no longer use.
