Ridley Scott's Body of Lies offers familiar tropes, familiar ideas and goings-on in a cinematic package that is engaging because of how it has been shot and cut together and because of the performances of the actors and actresses. There is no subtext in this product and I should not have been surprised that as soon as the end credits rolled with a Guns N' Roses song, I was thinking about something else already. The most entertaining (albeit unintentional, surely) bit of the film came from an abbreviation. The rest of it was well-edited exchanges of dialogue, a tour of several terror-infested parts of the world, a specious discourse in ideology, bureaucracy, jargon (Nitrate 37 slewing to all target ports now; IR 3.9, long wave 10.7, we're right on their six) and product placement (unsubtle Nokia cellphones, ubiquitous and more appropriate EMC data storage systems, the BlackBerry). I think I'll go back and watch Blade Runner again now.

For Immediate Release
Drone Use in Libya, Pakistan Condemned
KATHY KELLY, kathy at vcnv.org
JOSHUA BROLLIER, joshua at vcnv.org
Kelly and Brollier are with Voices for Creative Nonviolence. Kelly was recently in Afghanistan and today will be participating in a demonstration at a drone command base in New York. VCRN just put out a statement condemning "the hypocrisy and immorality of the United States in approving the use of missile-armed Predator drones and other aerial weaponry in Libya for a supposedly humanitarian purpose. While at the same time, the U.S. is carrying out continued drone and aerial attacks [in] Pakistan and Afghanistan, including civilians.
"In the most recent drone attack in N. Waziristan, Pakistan 'killed three civilian women and four children in addition to 18 suspected militants' [LA Times]. This killing came only two days after Pakistani army chief, Gen. Ashfaq Parvez Kayani, reiterated an appeal to the United States to stop the CIA drone program because the strikes 'not only undermine our national effort against terrorism but turn public support against our efforts.'
"It is unclear just who is being targeted and how many civilian casualties occur in strikes like this one and the March 17th strike killed more than 40 people in the North Waziristan village of Datta Khel. Almost no follow up is done and there is no measure of accountability for these extra-judicial killings being carried out by the CIA.
"Furthermore, the United States and ISAF forces are consistently murdering civilians through aerial attacks in Afghanistan. On April 20, 2011 [Wednesday], NATO warplanes killed three civilians in the Dangam District of Afghanistan's Kunar Province. The United States confirmed the attack occurred and said it was 'still investigating who exactly was killed.' In instances like these where 'suspected militants' are involved, it is unclear how these terms are being defined. Furthermore, we should be mindful of the illegitimacy of U.S./NATO/ISAF presence in Afghanistan and Pakistan in the first place.
"In resistance to these atrocities, anti-war activists have been participating in a five day peace/anti-drone march from Ithaca, New York, which will culminate today in a demonstration at Hancock Air Field in Syracuse, a site of drone operations." For information about the march, visit VCNR Drone Warfare Resources page: vcnv.org/project/drone-warfare-awareness or contact Kelly who is participating in the march.

Menu Innovation vs. Design Limitations
Staying fresh and new — that's the challenge chains face on an ongoing basis. It seems like every week or month, at least, chains like McDonald's, Taco Bell, Chick-fil-A and the like roll out new foods and flavors. Menu innovation plays an important part in the ongoing quest for relevancy, but how do you roll out new items without damaging flow? How do you build in flexibility with efficient kitchen design and equipment selection to accommodate new developments?
"It's almost like a symphony, where you have different parts of the orchestra playing in perfect harmony," says Jay Johns, vice president of strategy implementation for DineEquity's IHOP and Applebee's restaurants. "The chef or culinary director has to develop great new menu items, but they need to be cross-functional with all the different departments in the company, from operations to marketing, to ensure everything is in balance."
Juan Martinez, principal of Profitality, a Miami-based hospitality design consultancy, agrees with this strategy. "I once heard an executive from Outback say, 'If you don't innovate your menu, your brand will die, but if you innovate your menu wrong, you can kill your brand.' " Dramatics aside, menu innovation is vitally important to maintaining a competitive advantage, one that requires a well-thought-out, heavily tested and planned approach — one that won't damage a core brand, says Martinez. "I call it 'efficient menu innovation,'" he says.
Efficient menu innovation begins with heavy consumer surveying of core menu items as well as special promotions incorporating seasonal foods, regional-focused dishes and limited time offers (LTOs). The frequency of new rollouts differs from brand to brand; IHOP and Applebee's change their core menus every few years, introducing multiple seasonal items and LTOs throughout the year, according to Johns. In fact, "change is status quo for our stores — our operators expect it, so we need a military-like operation to make sure we're communicating and training our people," he says.
Quaker Steak & Lube offers three LTO programs annually, usually featuring three to five new items for a testing process lasting three to four months. "Our LTO schedule is a vehicle to test items prior to putting them on our menu," says Kate Malanik, senior director of food and beverage. While marketing and new product introductions drive menu innovation, lackluster sales for certain items can also spur the need for change.
At Zaxby's, systems development manager Matt Anderson says each quarter brings with it a new promotional item. "We maintain a regular testing process, so we always have a few LTOs in our pocket in case sales are stagnant for certain items," he says. "Low performers are always on the chopping block."
Testing before rollout is critical when it comes to menu innovation. For most quick-serve brands and high-volume chains, speed of service and quality represent the two most important factors.
"When it comes to menu innovation, what's important to most chains is that new items fit into their production cycle," Martinez says. With burgers, for example, introducing a new variation can be as easy as swapping out one sauce for another or one cheese for another. "From an employee standpoint it's easier because you still have the same burger production cycle."
Larger changes require much more testing. "You have to predict how much of the new product you might sell and then see how long it takes to produce those items at high volumes," Martinez says. With many quick-serves switching to more of a cooked-to-order process, this type of testing becomes even more important. "There is a direct relationship between assembly time and customer service."
Johns, an operator by trade, says he's constantly looking for feedback from the stores in terms of how the new items are impacting not only sales, but also operation and flow. "Speed of service and quality are critical," he says. "We want to be able to replicate the same quality from the test kitchen in the field where volume and speed come into play. This is why we don't have soufflés on our menu, for example."

My Personal Article on "Real Bus People"
So There Are "Bus People Enthusiasts," We Are Few and Far Between
I've been one of the Bus People since I was only three years old. That's a lifetime of rolling through the countryside on motor coaches, getting my hands dirty with motor fluids, hearing the rattle of diesel engines and the adrenaline rush that comes with the sweet smell of a diesel engine as it pushes a motor coach up a Texas hill.
By Joe Welps
Motor coaches have a long and important history in the development of our cities and towns. They allowed people from all areas of the country to make choices as to where they would live, visit, and play. For some of us, meeting another one of the Bus People is sharing history and information with a person you feel you already know.
Yes, there really ARE fanatics about buses, and I am one of them. You might think I'm crazy, but I have a VIVID memory of buses ever since I was only three years old, so my fondness for buses is my life. I have Autobiographical and Episodic Memory–a condition that gives me elephant-like control of my mind and all past experiences.
I was born in 1946 in Corpus Christi, Texas - right after World War II. There were many different styles and makes of motor coaches in service in both transit and intercity applications. I can actually remember riding the transit buses with my parents at age three. That was thrilling for me and I'm certain the experience was so intense that it caused my interest in buses.
From 1949 until 1960, I was an active kid and tried to ride every bus I could on the Nueces Transportation lines and Continental Trailways Lines. I was 8 years old when I would ride the Trailways Bus into town in order to go to the movies or shop around town. In this time era, there were generally good people on the streets of Corpus Christi and no one worried about the evils of kidnapping and beyond. Children were safe and could move around easily and safely.
During this time, I really wanted to ride on a Greyhound Bus. I really wanted to ride on one of the GM 3703 Camel Back Bus. You see, Continental Trailways had the rights to the west side of Corpus Christi on Hi Way 9. This was the bus I had to ride into Corpus Christi. Greyhound had the rights to the north side which is Hi Way 181. I lived on the west side of Corpus Christi, so I had to ride on Continental in order to get to town.
I talked my parents into letting me ride a Greyhound to San Antonio, Texas. I would ride there and come right back. As luck would have it, the bus that traveled to San Antonio was a GM 4104. I already rode plenty of them with Trailways, so I didn't have the thrill of the Camel Back.
When I was 8, I learned that the Camel Back was the bus used on the Houston Route. I asked my parents to please let me ride this bus to Houston, but they told me the San Antonio trip was enough. Back then you did not argue with your parents.
Being a bus enthusiast, I was ridiculed by many of my friends. They just could not understand me and I guess I was confusing to them. I'd start out going to the movies and never make it because I'd ride transit buses most of the day. For me, this was entertainment.
A few parents would bring us in groups to see the Minor League Baseball game played, but I spent most of my time observing the chartered intercity coaches that brought the visiting team and fans to the game. I was hardly ever in the stands watching the ball game.
In 1960, I was 14 years old and just entered high school. This is the time in your life when you start dating, play school sports and become member of different school clubs. I really did not want my peers to think I was abnormal with my interest in buses, so I did not openly show interests in buses and didn't talk about them. I did, however, keep looking out of the corner of my eyes and when I would see a bus parked on the streets or in a wrecking yard, I would study it intently. I just couldn't pull myself away from buses.
This went on for 21 years. I had a secrete interest with buses because others didn't understand. I was still interested in buses all through high school, college, grad school, US Army, and in my teaching career.
All this was kept to myself until in 1981 when I found out there were bus people out there just like me. Boy was I relieved.
I moved my family to a new location in West Texas. Since most of the schools are far in distance, most of them had intercity coaches in order to transport the teams and band to out of town games. I was in Bus Heaven!
Most of these coaches were purchased from the Greyhound and Trailways used fleet. I was told from a few people that this school was thinking about purchasing a bus like this. That got me real motivated, and I ran to the superintendent's office and volunteered to look for a bus to purchase. My thought was, now I will get to be involved in one of these coaches with my present coaching and teaching position.
There was one charter company located in Odessa, Texas called "Trans Texas Trailways." This company was owned by a man named Charles Harrington. When I approached him about information of buying a used intercity coach, he gave me the phone number of "The National Bus Trader," so I called and spoke with Larry Plachno. He sent me a copy of the latest issue and told me if I was interested to subscribe.
I notice there was one advertisement on ordering a book on the history of Greyhound Buses from 1950 to present. This was something I was interested, so I called the number and a person named Bob Redden answered.
Mr. Redden explained to me he had many archives on the history of buses and also told me about the club called "International Bus Collectors." He told me this is composed of people who are bus enthusiasts, and also people that own private coaches. I could not believe what I was hearing. At this time I came out of my shell, and everybody I worked with or I had contact with knew I was a "bus man," and I was proud of it. Oh yes, there were a few people in that community that thought I had a strange hobby and interest, but I really did not care.
I made several calls to Bob and I could not believe the knowledge he had on buses both in the past and present. I do remember riding buses at the age of 3, but I did not know what type or model they were. When I described these buses to Bob, he knew exactly what kind they were.
The Cracker Box Ford was one of the first buses I rode. The next bus I rode was also a Ford Bus which was a model 8MB. The 8M2B was one window longer. Ford Motor Company Bus sold their manufacturing rights to Marmon-Herrington in 1950. This bus remained the same except for the name plate located on the front of the bus.
In 1953, Nueces Transportation purchased 12 TDH-4512 Old Looks 35 feet, and 14 TDH-3714 Old Looks 30 feet. I really thought this was the best looking bus General Motors ever produced.
In 1957, Nueces Transportation then purchased 10 TGH-3102 Old Looks. This bus was much smaller and had a gas engine. Beside this information that Bob told me, I also found out Nueces Transportation was started in Corpus Christi, Texas in 1936 by two brother's names Ed and Bob Eckstrom. Ed Eckstrom was one of the founders of Greyhound in 1926 in Hibbing, Minnesota. Mr. Eckstrom is actually the person that installed the running dog emblem on the Greyhound Bus.
Nueces Transportation finally sold it business to the city of Corpus Christi in 1966. The name was changed to Corpus Christi Transit. Today it is called The Regional Transit Authority.
When I told Bob about the 3703 Camel back, I learned that this was not a Greyhound Bus. This was operated by the company Missouri Pacific Lines. They only shared the station with Greyhound. The bus color was also blue and white. This company stopped service in Corpus Christi in 1957.
Bob Redden never even visited Corpus Christi, but he knew all about the types of buses and the companies that serviced them especially after WWII.
I did continue to work with the Superintendent of Schools on the purchase of a coach. As luck would have it, the school board was not interested in the school having a motor coach at all. During our out of town events, our school just traveled in regular school buses.
Bob Redden in one of his IBC Issues stated in an article that "it is a shame that people in America cannot transport our school children in a better type of bus." He also called this type of a bus "Trucks." In Texas, teachers and coaches refer to them as "Yellow Dogs."
Eight years have now passed, and the only communications with bus people I been doing is with Bob Redden. All this time I have been subscribing to National Bus Trader and the IBC Magazine. Finally one day, I met another athletic coach at an athletic event who told me his school just purchased a GM 4509. Because of this, the school was selling their GM 4104. I was ready to become a bus owner and was very interested in this GM 4104
At this time, the oil economy throughout the US was declining and most schools in West Texas depended on this economy. The school was in danger of having to cut their budget and staff members.
At first, I was given a price of $5000 to buy this bus, but because of the economy, the school reduced the price to $3500 to make the purchase more desirable. I knew this was a good price, but I also knew my wife and I would be moving to a different school and town the following year. Since the school offered me this price, I told them I would help find them a buyer.
I ran an ad in the "National bus Trader." I was receiving many calls' not really to buy the coach, but just to ask questions about it. Now I was talking to real "bus people" like me, and I was excited! I found a buyer for the bus and the school was happy. But, I think the best accomplish was meeting other Bus People on the phone during this process. These people also knew personally Larry Plachno and Bob Redden. I was impressed to be part of the group.
The first person to call me was John Vickers. At the time, he owned a GM 4104. His dad made a living as being a Greyhound Driver. John was presently working for American Airlines as a Mechanic. John is also a "busman," but he is motor home all the way. At present time, John owns a GM 4905-A.
John introduced me to a bus enthusiast named Fred Rayman. Fred was in the bus business and drove for Jefferson Bus Lines. Fred owned a restored GM 4104 that had the painting of a Trailways Bus. That coach was in excellent condition and looked good enough to still be in service.
Next, I talked to a person named Ralph Cantos. Ralph lives in Los Angeles, California. He owned a total of 60 buses of both transit and intercity coach. These buses were in a museum called the "Cantos Collection." Ralph is the type of "busman" where everything stays on the bus including the seats, and the bus is all original. Right now, Ralph has around 70 buses in his collection. When I first talked to him, his collection was on leased property. Since the lease expired, he is presently looking for land in the Los Angeles area in order to have his museum on a permanent spot.
In the summer of 1993, I made a trip to Los Angeles to see the Cantos Collection where I was introduced to Loren Joplin. Loren owned a total of 125 GM New Look Buses. Every model that was built from 1959 to 1977 was in his collection. These were transits and suburban buses, a total of 32 different models. Another thing I noticed, was the buses still had the city's name or company from were they were purchased and were all original.
Next, I received a call from Bill Wheeler. He was helping me with a question I wrote in "National Bus Trader" on the Curious Coach Owner. The question was about a GM TGH- 2708 Transit Bus. It looks so much like a GM TGM-3102, and I did not realize these were two different types of buses.
Bill Wheeler worked for General Motors in the Bus and Truck Division for 30 years. When he retired, he still remained a bus enthusiast, and at present time he owns two 1939 Model 1204 Yellow Coaches.
Bill Wheeler and I stay in contact. Because of this, Bill introduced me to another bus Enthusiast named Tim Logan.
Tim is an executive with a major corporation, and has owned 13 different coaches in 14 years. He usually restores them and will sell one and buy another one for a project. Tim had 3 coaches that were in perfect condition. One was a 1958 GM TGH-3102 Old Look, 1969 GM S6H-4503-A New Look, and a 1954 GM TDH-5105 Old Look. Tim still owns the 5105. All three of these coaches are in show room shape.
Another bus Enthusiast I made contact through National Bus Trader was Tom McNally. I did not personally meet him, but we did communicate on the phone and through e-mail. Tom had an excellent rally of mostly Scenicruise Coaches in Adrian, Texas. Because of the time of year this rally was held, I could not make this event.
Tom has an excellent Scenicruise Coach, and I hope I may see it one day.
Larry Yohe also wrote an excellent article in the National Bus Trader on restoring his Eagle 05 Trailways. I made contact with him through e-mail. From seeing pictures of this coach in the article, it is probably in better condition now than when it was in service.
As for the coaches I owned. My first one was a 1963 Flxible Starliner Clipper. My only mistake of being a "bus man," was to let that bus go. This coach was purchased by the Lovington, New Mexico School District brand new. It was use as an activity bus, and had logged in only 185,000 miles from 1963 until 1992 when I purchased it.
My next coach was a 1960 GM 4104. This coach did have some wear on it because it was first purchased by Western Greyhound Lines. After Greyhound removed it from its fleet, it was used by at least 2 charter companies. I believe I was the 4th owner of this coach.
I sold the coach in 2000 and in 2004; I purchased a 1982 MCI-9. I also have this coach today.
I'm of the opinion that these buses are made to ride in, not live in. I had "bus people" who are "motor home all the way" disagree with me. I was also amazed in the article by Tom Yohe where he wrote, "Some people never saw the soft glow of lime-colored lights or bluish cast from the lights above the luggage racks." I just really cannot see why someone would want to strip out the interior lights, the individual read lights positioned where they located, and remove the luggage racks.
Although people find pleasure in restoring or rebuilding motor coaches, I never destroy the integrity of the coach by cutting into them. I do like to make room for family and friends to ride comfortably by removing some seats, but I never cut into the coach to create an area beyond that of the original manufacturer. I usually leave the first 3 seats on both side of the coach in place. The back part of the bus has the seats removed and replaced with couches and easy chairs. The very back seats are also left in place. I also add carpet to the floor which really gives the coach a neat appearance.
The main thing I also like in private coaches is the destination sign. All coaches should have one. I do like the people on the outside know it is a private coach, so that is what is written in its place. The thing about the restored coaches, many people still thinks the bus is still in service and belongs to a company instead of an individual.
Even if a coach is a motor home, it can still be crowded when you are traveling long distance. I am ready to get out and sleep in a motel room at the end of the day. I will also stop at a restaurant when it is time to eat on the trip. I really do not want to cook on the coach, and I believe it could be dangerous to have a stove on a private coach.
As I said at the first of this article, I became a bus person at the age of 3. That would make me a "busman" for a total of 61 years. Of all those 61 years, I have made contact, either in person, phone, and e-mail, with a total of 10 busmen, whom I mentioned in this article.
I believe Bus People we are one of a kind and there are many people that think we have a strange hobby and/or interest.
Thanks to Larry Plachno and "The National Bus Trader," and the late Bob Redden and the "International Bus Collector," bus people can make contact. There is also the "Flxible Owners International" which is an organization for people interested in Flxible Coaches. I was a member of this association when I owned my Flxible Starliner Clipper. My problem then was I could never get off to go to one of their rallies.
In some of the articles in NBT, many people do not leave any material on how to connect with each other. I would like to make connections with real "bus people," so send me an e-mail and let's share ideas and interest.

Have you ever wanted to copy a Website for offline browsing or backup purposes? Theres a powerful UNIX tool called wget that can do this, and much more. Ill review a simple example of using this tool, and discuss some advanced features that are huge timesavers. GNU wget is a free utility which runs under UNIX and Windows. In a nutshell, this program can go out and effectively mirror a Website for local browsing or backup purposes. While it has more powerful features, this article will focus on the basics of the tool.
Wget is a command line utility. So, UNIX users must run it from a shell, and Windows users need to open a command prompt window to run it. The examples below will assume you are using Windows, but the commands apply just as easily to other platforms.
Before we start a word of caution; keep in mind when mirroring a Website or FTP site. You are consuming significant resources, both in terms of bandwidth and server processing. Please be considerate when using wget, and please make sure you have permission before setting up recurring or intensive mirroring of a large site. Wget does have some features to mitigate the impact on remote servers, namely the w option discussed in the examples below. Please use your best judgment!
Example 1 Mirror a Website for Offline Browsing.
This example will mirror a Website with all images, etc. to your local machine. Keep in mind that any dynamic content will become static on the local copy. In this example, Ill be forcing any non-HTML extensions (.CGI, .ASP, etc.) to be written as HTML files. This will facilitate local browsing. Also note, this example does not retrieve the source for any scripts or server side code. The second example will illustrate how to do that.
Ok, lets try it out. Assuming wget is in your path (if not, youll have to cd into the C:\Program Files\wget directory), issue the following commands:
mkdir wget_filescd wget_files
wget --mirror w 2 p --HTML-extension -convert-links P c:\wget_files\example1 http://www.yourdomain.com
Thats it! In a few seconds (or minutes, depending on the size of the site and speed of your connection), youll have the site downloaded. It will be in a folder called www.yourdomain.com. Simply open a web browser, choose File -> Open, and browse to the index.HTML (or appropriate starting page) in the folder that was just created by wget, in our case (C:\wget_file\www.yourdomain.com\example1). This tree is suitable for offline browsing try it when visiting a client who does not have high speed network connectivity or even burning to CD for posterity.
Now, a brief explanation of the options used:
--mirror: Specifies to mirror the site. Wget will recursively follow all links on the site and download all necessary files. It will also only get files that have changed since the last mirror, which is handy in that it saves download time.
-w: Tells wget to wait or pause between requests, in this case for 2 seconds. This is not necessary, but is the considerate thing to do. It reduces the frequency of requests to the server, thus keeping the load down. If you are in a hurry to get the mirror done, you may eliminate this option.
-p: Causes wget to get all required elements for the page to load correctly. Apparently, the mirror option does not always guarantee that all images and peripheral files will be downloaded, so I add this for good measure.
--HTML-extension: All files with a non-HTML extension will be converted to have an HTML extension. This will convert any CGI, ASP or PHP generated files to HTML extensions for consistency.
--convert-links: All links are converted so they will work when you browse locally. Otherwise, relative (or absolute) links would not necessarily load the right pages, and style sheets could break as well.
-P (prefix folder): The resulting tree will be placed in this folder. This is handy for keeping different copies of the same site, or keeping a browsable copy separate from a mirrored copy.
Note: These files should not be uploaded back to your server they have been modified for local viewing, and will most potentially break your Website if you blindly upload them!
Example 2 Copy Your Site for Backup Purposes
This example will create a local copy of your site that is suitable for backup purposes. If you already use a Website management tool, such as Dreamweaver, this method may get files that it does not have, for example, log files, CGI files, and other data files created on the server.
Note: If your site uses a database server, such as mysql or SQL Server, this method will not backup the actual data. Backing up databases is beyond the scope of this article.
Using the same assumptions from the first example, well create a mirror via FTP. You will need to know your FTP username and password, and the FTP host to access your site files. These are likely the same as you use to update your site via Dreamweaver or GoLive, etc. Heres the full command (all on one line):
wget mirror w 3 p P c:\wget_files\example2 ftp://username:firstname.lastname@example.com
Once this is done, take a look at the files pulled down. Note, you will likely not be able to browse this as you could with Example 1, since none of the links or files were converted. The options for wget work the same as in Example 1.
To keep this mirror in sync, simply run it by hand every so often, or set up a cron (UNIX) or at (Windows) job to run it on a regular basis.
Example 3 Download a File
While web browsers and FTP programs can handle downloads, on occasion, wget comes in handy in this regard. It supports resumption of interrupted downloads, and of course, the command line aspect is useful. Here is a simple example (create the example3 folder as before):
Wget P c:\wget_files\example3 http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/wget/wget-1.9.tar.gz
To continue an interrupted download, add a -c option before the P. Note, this will only work if the remote server supports resuming. If so, it can save quite a bit of downloading time, especially over a slow connection.

Today is Election Day in the USA! Did you vote? I did! I have never gotten a chance to do an Election Day mani.
Figured it would be a great time to use my Lynderella Remember for the first time. I've been saving it for a special occasion. This is two coats of Remember over Zoya Dove.
I am SO excited and overjoyed to own this polish. It is one of 9 bottles that are out right now, so it's about as limited edition as it gets. It was made for Memorial Day, so it's very close to my heart because my husband is in the military.
Lynderella Remember is a light gray jelly polish packed with patriotic glitter! It has large squares in red/blue, large white hexes, large whiteish silver holo stars, white bar glitter, light pink bar glitter, medium squares in red/blue/white/teal/light pink/dark pink, medium hexes in teal/blue/white, small hexes in red/dark pink/white, microglitter in white/red/blue/dark pink, and pearly white and multi-colored shimmer.
The white glitters are an almost iridescent matte finish. This is SO much more than a red, white, and blue polish!
And a closeup! I couldn't take pictures in the sunlight so you can't really see all the shimmer here, but it's there!
Thank you again for this gorgeous polish Lynn <3

The debt-ridden August Wilson Center might have a buyer.
A group of local foundations, including the Pittsburgh Foundation, submitted a bid last week to acquire the downtown Pittsburgh African American cultural center which is delinquent on its $7 million mortgage.
John Ellis, vice president for communications with the Pittsburgh Foundation, issued a statement saying the group "is developing a joint initiative in efforts to preserve the August Wilson Center and to safeguard its purpose as the preeminent community resource for African American arts programming."
Ellis would not name the other foundations involved in the joint bid which was submitted to Conservator Judith Fitzgerald, a retired bankruptcy judge. Nor did Ellis provide details of the amount offered.
His statement went on to say, "Separately, the foundations are examining ways to maintain funding support for local African American arts programming."
The statement indicated the foundations' primary goal is "to save the August Wilson Center in the hope that it may re-open and remain operating for the long-term, fulfilling its essential role as the community's hub for African American arts and culture."
Fitzgerald had set March 31 as the deadline for bids on the center so that she can close a sale by June 30 for the center which opened in 2009. Ellis did indicate the foundations hope to have an answer about their bid in the next few weeks.

A few weeks ago, to celebrate the coming of fall and everything, I made pumpkin pie. This is the recipe that I created last year for Thanksgiving, which is ultimately one of my favourite holidays because I get to cook so much for so many people. I use a few nontraditional ingredients with a few traditional methods. I roast my own pumpkin to get the puree (though, this time, my boyfriend did it for me as I was working!). It's something I look forward to.
I forgot to take pictures until pretty much everyone had eaten the pie. As I was chowing down on my slice, I took one lonely picture, and luckily it turned out pretty good.
I made a crust for this pie which I took to work with me so I could have it ready at the boyfriend's house.... and then I promptly forgot it at work. We had to run out and buy premade Marie Callender frozen pie crusts for this pie. I've decided I'll make a quiche with the pie crust I was going to make this out of... and so you'll see that later.
It took me awhile to get the courage to put recipes up here. I have it in mind to make a cookbook someday, but recipes are meant to be shared.
That said, here is the recipe for my personal pumpkin pie.
2 eggs
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/2 cup white sugar
¼ cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups pumpkin puree
1 1/4 cups evaporated milk
¼ cup heavy whipping cream
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
3 tablespoons maple syrup
1 1/4 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 pie crust
Preheat the oven to 450 Degrees. In a large mixing bowl, slowly mix the sugar into the pumpkin puree. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and spices. Stir the flour mixture into the pumpkin puree, then mix in the syrup. Beat the ingredients well. In another separate bowl, lightly beat the eggs with the vanilla extract, then add them into the pumpkin mixture. Slowly mix in the evaporated and cream, combining until well blended. Pour the batter into an unbaked pie shell. Bake for 15 minutes, then reduce the oven to 325 Degrees. Continue baking the pie for an additional 30-45 minutes or until a knife is inserted into the mixture and comes out clean. If the mixture doesn't seem to want to set and starts to brown, remove from the oven and allow to sit and cool for a few minutes, then test with the knife again.
Be sure to strain your pumpkin puree. This time I didn't have time, and so the pie came out a little soft... but if you happen to not strain, I'd cut back a bit on the evaporated milk.

Down with the naysayers!
My trip to Prague using SealLine's Boundary pack was a smashing success. The 35L model held all of my girlfriend's and my things perfectly, with even a bit of room to spare. Our only additional bags were a small day pack for carrying around and a small handbag with gifts for our friends. That bag ended up going into the bottom of the SealLine after we delivered the presents.
As I noted in my original post, my first trial only presented the problem of organization. To alleviate this, I picked up a Sea-to-Summit Compression Sack for my clothes, a Stuff Sack for my girlfriend's, two small bags for toiletries and then I reused plastic bags for our shoes. With everything compartmentalized I was simply able to stack the items in order of access–shoes on bottom, clothes above and toiletries/travel documents on top).
Over the whole journey there was very minimal carrying involved simply because we were always on buses, trains, planes or in hostels. The bag actually sat in the corner the entire time we were in Moravia and then later in Prague. Hauling it to the return flight was the only time it was slightly uncomfortable, probably having something to do with the raucous amount of Czech beer that I packed in it.
The bag is tough; it's waterproof; it's cheap and light. If you're worried about a lack of space, pay the extra ten bucks for the 70L–just don't shell out $200+ for a full-featured expedition pack that will never see the light of day once you return from hostel-hopping.
My gear list:
2 Icebreaker shirts (worn)
1 Tshirt (to oblige the lady)
1 pair jeans
1 pair hiking pants
1 pair shorts (worn)
3 pairs Smartwool socks (worn)
2 pairs EMS Techwick underwear
1 pair Icebreaker Beast underwear (worn)
1 EMS Thunderhead rain jacket
1 EMS Summit Fleece
1 pair Chaco Z/1 sandals
1 pair La Sportiva FC2.0 shoes (worn)
(+ books, papers, etc.)
*I washed a few items randomly towards the end of the trip to keep things fresh, otherwise it was all zero-maintenance

I went to my interview just now! Almos caertain I got the job! I should be getting a call anytime tomorrow if not before 12 tonight! I couldn't believe I made it through that! I was nervous as all hell! I was sure they'd take one look at me and my anxious mess of self and shake their heads. I was so happy!...Until I got home that is. I just knew my first real binge (in nearly a year) would come today! Maybe it was the stress? Still...nice. How much more transparent can my teeth get? I know what happens now, she really doesn't have to tell me but of course she did. Why wouldn't she? Time to work my ass off!
On the bright side, my control has gotton SO much better than it was!!! (Ignoring what just happened today of course...)
Ps- I read that body fat becomes water soluble at 109 F and you can sweat it out???
Steam baths can reduce cellulite and a person can burn up to 300cal???
Hmmm, I'm sceptical!

Valtho - Aug 26, 2011 4:33 pm Date Climbed: Aug 17, 2011Normal route

Easy walk up. Been on the summit with nice weather.

il.rocciatore - Aug 20, 2011 11:47 amRoute Climbed: Traverse Date Climbed: august 2011
Traverse from the bivouac Rossi e Volante. Easy climbing and swift progress to the base of the Breithorn Central. Climbed the first step directly (graded IV), which isn't that hard if you keep your nerves together when searching for the next good hold or belay point. Second and third step are a piece of cake compared with the first one. Nice snow ridge on to final summit.
skotty - Aug 20, 2011 11:43 am Date Climbed: Aug 20, 2011Via the half traverse
The half traverse is a fun alpine rock route. Don't waste your time with the normal snow slope route.
NKING100 - Aug 18, 2011 9:22 am Date Climbed: Aug 14, 2003Traverse very nice
From Rossi-Volanti Bivouac (2.25 h from Kleine Matterhorn) via Roccia Nera and East-West Traverse (AD, 5.75 h to main summit). Descend via SSW Flank to Kleine Matterhorn cable car.
cabouckaert1 - Aug 17, 2011 7:43 am Date Climbed: Aug 10, 2011Short Climb
Climbed to West Summit from Klein Matternhorn lift. Non-technical walk-up in snow. Crowded. Nice summit though and descent via ridge towards the East was nice as well.
msihl - Aug 3, 2011 9:27 am Date Climbed: Aug 3, 2011Breithorn west summit via normal route
Two day solo trip from Zermatt (Haus Steinnelke) via Furi, Furgg, Trockerner Steg, Gandegg Hütte, Rifugio del Teodulo (Teodulhütte), Testa Grigia and Breithorn West (4165 m). Weather on summit day was nice at first (6.15 am) but then became overcast/cloudy with fog and storm during the final ascent. At least not many people climbed it from Klein Matterhorn due to the shitty conditions. Reached summit at 9.50 am and returned to Trockener Steg station at 12.50 pm.
lars - Jul 26, 2011 2:16 pm Date Climbed: Jul 22, 2011Normal route

Igor Czs - Jun 8, 2011 10:20 am Date Climbed: Jun 5, 2010First Alpine 4000er!
Perfect condictions to use crampons. Very early in the season, so no cable car to Klein Mat. We rent a snowmobile until 3700m...great!
Was a little bit windy early...but no winds on top.
Best season start from july as the climb bureau is closed and the teleferics was in manutention after the ski season.
danleach - May 11, 2011 5:03 amCentral summit, half Breithorn ridge traverse, Western summit
From Kleine Matterhorn Station. With Heather Uren. First independent alpine trip.
WouterB - Apr 26, 2011 4:51 pm Date Climbed: Apr 24, 2011Solo ski ascent from Zermatt
A solo ski ascent from Zermatt and my first Swiss 4000'er. Had to walk a long way with ski's and full gear because more snow had melted then I had excpected. Had full camping gear with me and made a bivouac at around 3100m. Next day I summited and had a lovely time skiing down.
Kyle22 - Feb 13, 2011 1:03 am Date Climbed: Jun 28, 2010Breithorn
First peak I climbed in Europe. Very quick fun climb. The pounding headache after arriving back in Zermatt was some what expected because I didn't do any acclimatization hikes before hand. Nothing a few Advil's couldn't fix.
markhallam - Dec 29, 2010 2:23 am Date Climbed: Jun 20, 2000Breithorn 4 times!

If you are wondering if your supervisors are effective in helping their employees improve performance, the harsh reality is most employees learn their jobs by doing them under the direction of others who probably don't have the time or tools to teach them effectively.
Unfortunately, this situation exists all too often, and The Moberly Area Employer's Training Consortium (MAETC) understands the need to better address employee job training. MAETC also knows it takes time, management commitment and a financial investment to initiate improvements in staff development and that any actions must fit your company, people and work.
MACC's Entrepreneurship & Business Development Center is partnering with MAETC to offer training skill development programs (Train-the-Trainer) for first-line supervisors and team leaders, emphasizing realistic and practical tools and techniques that are easily incorporated in day-to-day activities.
Registration for the first class is beginning now. The sessions are on Tuesday April 12, Thursday April 14, and Tuesday April 19, 8:00 am to 12:00 noon each day. The class will be held in the Moberly Area Community College Entrepreneurship and Business Development Center Training Room.
The Train-the-Trainer program features customized design and content to fit Moberly's community and business environment; flexible scheduling to best fit the needs of clients, structured as full-day or partial-day sessions; facilities for training programs providing a convenient, professional, non-threatening environment and; realistic approaches to adult learners who might not have the benefit of significant supervisory experience or skill training
Train-the-Trainer includes the core topics of deciding what areas require specific training; choosing appropriate mode of training; learning various methods to teach "What, Why, How and When"; linking employee training to personal commitment to performance improvement; tools to measure and communicate results and; methods for effective follow-up.
Training sessions include practical topic presentations, demonstrations, activities, which allow participants to practice skills learned, and individualized feedback.
Train-the-Trainer works well in a series of three half-day sessions (12 contact hours), but can be presented in many formats and content compositions according to client needs.
MAETC was created to assist employers with training and workforce development needs. This collaboration allows employers to bring quality training opportunities to the Moberly Area at a reduced cost by sharing expenses across a larger number of participants and limits the need to send employees to larger markets. This effort reduces the amount of time away from work and eliminates the costs associated with travel and overnight stays allowing partners to offer more training opportunities by stretching limited resources. Many members are eligible for MAETC training funds received through the consortium as a result of matching grants from state and federal funding.
This Train-the-Trainer program, along with other staff development offerings, will be designed and conducted by David W. Byland. Mr. Byland is an Adjunct Instructor in the Columbia College Division of Adult Higher Education, with over 30 years of experience developing and conducting skill and concept training programs for adult learners. In addition, he has served in Senior Management capacities specializing in Human Resources, Administration and Project Management operations in both profit and non-profit organizations in the healthcare, insurance, information technology, financial systems and higher education industries. Mr. Byland earned a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration majoring in Information Technology and a Master of Business Administration from the University of Central Missouri.
To register for this program, log onto the Moberly Area Economic Development Corp. website at www.moberly-edc.com/ or call the Entrepreneurship and Business Development Center at 660-263-5865. The cost for members is $200 and $250 for non-members.

Life after Facebook: Social Networking & Shopping I Local Business Directory
Who doesn't love some bumper car fun? From tiny tots to completely grown adults, it appears to be everyone has a bumper car passion somewhere in our soul! Thankfully it's not only throughout the hot and dry times of summer that we can enjoy a bit of bumper car madness, indoor bumper cars signify also a cold and damp day may be turned into an entertaining experience with a sunny smile on everyone's face.
Bumper Car Fun - How Made It Happen All Begin?
Almost all of jump up on board a bumper car and whiz around for a few minutes possessing a whale of your time, without contemplating where they actually came from. So what exactly is the history of the humble bumper car?
As is the case considering the variety of theme park attractions and carnival rides, there is certainly somewhat of the debate around the past of indoor bumper cars!
In the event you ask the Showmen's Museum in Miami, they will tell you that Max and Harold Stoehrer of Massachusetts were the proud inventors of the things we currently call bumper cars. That story won't always hold up though, others will state that Victor Levand, a former worker for General Electric was the brains behind the brilliant bumper car.
Regardless of the debate, perform know one fact for sure, Max and Harold Stoehrer were the very first men and women to patent the bumper car idea, back in 1920! They then went on to generate the Dodgem Company, even advertising their tagline of Dogem cars being the, 'Rolls Royce of amusement devices'!
The reality was however, how the first bumper cars where anything but Rolls Royces! One strong kick would dent them, they often must be nailed together again between rides and even the Scientific American said that they were, 'unmanageable'!
Thankfully after a while, the rides became safer, better structured and a smaller nightmare to parents!
Nearly a hundred years But Still Going Strong
Whoever it had been that came up with the bumper car idea, everyone has much to thank them for. Little did they are aware at the time how kids and adults alike would enjoy hot summer days colliding, crashing and bumping within a style that only bumper cars allow. Not only that, but indoor bumper cars imply that it becomes an attraction that can be thoroughly enjoyed all year around.
An Intriguing Fact To Bring Up Next Time You're In Line For Your Bumper Cars
Do you recall a sleepy science class that mentioned something connected with Newton's law? Don't worry, we don't expect you to definitely remember it from memory! Here comes element of it, 'for every action it comes with an equal and opposite action'.
This law comes into play whenever you collide with someone about the bumper car course. That's why if you ram into someone's car, you as well feel a difficult jolt and normally bounce away to the opposite direction. So the very next time you're in the line, impress your friends and quote Newton's law!

Kashmir Haj pilgrims to fly directly from Srinagar
Haj pilgrims from Jammu and Kashmir can undertake the spiritual journey to Saudi Arabia from Srinagar directly from September 17 in Indian Airlines flight daily to the holy land for this year's pilgrimage.india Updated: Sep 11, 2012 20:55 IST
Haj pilgrims from Jammu and Kashmir can undertake the spiritual journey to Saudi Arabia from Srinagar directly from September 17 in Indian Airlines flight daily to the holy land for this year's pilgrimage.
"The direct operations of Haj flights by the Indian Airlines would make the pilgrimage smooth and relieve the intending pilgrims of the burden of transshipment from one aircraft to another," said chief minister Omar Abdullah, who is also chairman of the Jammu and Kashmir State Haj Committee.
Pilgrims in the past had to board the Jeddah flight from Delhi.
Directing the State Haj Committee to provide best possible facilities to the pilgrims, Abdullah said that every care should be taken for their accommodation, stay at Haj House, immigration and custom clearance.
"Haj Committee shall publish a guide book for the pilgrims indicating details of the facilities, emergency service, enquiry and related issues that would prove helpful to them in Saudi Arabia during the performance of the Haj," the CM was quoted by his government's spokesman.
Commissioner secretary Haj and Auqaf, BA Runiyal gave details of the arrangements and preparedness for the pilgrimage this year.
He said that the first Haj flight will be from Sept 17 this year and every day 270 pilgrims will be carried from Srinagar to Saudi Arabia.
He said one flight is scheduled for one day. However, he added that two Haj flights would be operated for eight days.
The Haj quota for the state has been increased from last year's 8,441 to 8,670, highest in last four years. In addition, private Haj operators are also facilitating travel for 500 intending Haj pilgrims.
It was in 2009 when first international flight took off from Srinagar Airport to Dubai after being inaugurated by UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi.
But, all international flights were grounded owing to various reasons including objections by Pakistan over using its airspace.

A register of water access licences, called the WAL Register began on 1 July 2004 under the Water Management Act 2000. The WAL Register is designed to provide a record of every water access licence in New South Wales and is now available online. More detailed information is available on the Registrar General's Directions website.
The aim of the WAL Register is to:
- Make information on water access licences easily available to WaterNSW and to the public
- Provide a secure system for water access licence information
- Reduce conveyancing costs and
- Help to develop a market in water access licences.
The WAL Register is maintained by NSW LRS on behalf of the Minister administering the Water Management Act 2000. NSW LRS print and issue WAL certificates.
The WAL Register has a separate record for each water access licence issued (called hereafter a WAL folio). Each WAL folio has a unique number for identification purposes, the first being 'WAL1'.
The WAL folio shows water access licence details such as:
- share component (volume)
- extraction component
- water source
- expiry date and
- conditions.
The WAL folio also shows:
- current ownership details
- mortgages, charges and related information and
- a licence reference number.
A duplicate of the WAL folio (called the WAL certificate) is issued to the licence holder, or any other party entitled to hold the WAL certificate, e.g. the mortgagee. The WAL certificate is required when you register certain transactions such as a transfer, mortgage or charge.
The information shown on the WAL Register is not guaranteed like the Torrens Title Register for land held under the Real Property Act 1900. You must search all of the transactions registered on the WAL folio to establish if they are legal and form an unbroken 'chain of title', similar to transactions affecting Old System land registered in the General Register of Deeds. The historical title search for the WAL folio provides the list of transactions.
The WAL Register begins with water access licences associated with the 36 existing water-sharing plans, comprising approximately 16,000 licences. As other water sharing plans are developed, water access licences covered by those plans will be added to the WAL Register.
Searches of the WAL Register
Searches of the WAL Register can be made over the counter at NSW LRS Queens Square, Sydney or you can search the Register through the authorised information broker network.
Transactions affecting the WAL Register
Water access licence transactions, including transfers of ownership, mortgages, charges, caveats and related transactions are registered on the appropriate folio of the WAL Register using approved forms called WAL dealings. Other transactions requiring the Minister's Consent will also need to be lodged, as detailed in the role of WaterNSW below.
Registration of transactions require lodgment of WAL dealings, together with the relevant WAL Certificate(s) at NSW LRS Queens Square, Sydney. On lodgment, WAL dealings will be given a unique number and the transaction recorded on the WAL Register. Following registration, a new edition of the WAL certificate will be issued to the entitled party.
WAL dealing forms and instructions for completion are available on the forms page. WAL dealing information is also available on the Registrar General's Directions website.
WAL Register transaction fees
By agreement with WaterNSW the fee for WAL searches will be the same as the fees applicable for equivalent Torrens title searches. Fees for lodgment of WAL dealings are not equivalent to lodgment fees applicable for dealings lodged under the Real Property Act 1900. This is because a Torrens Assurance Fund levy of $4.00 is included in the fee for each Real Property Act dealing. As indefeasibility of title is not yet offered for water access licences, no levy is applied to WAL dealings.
For current transaction fees on the WAL Register see the WAL register fees page.
Please note licensing and other fees are applied by WaterNSW.
Role of WaterNSW
WaterNSW maintains overall responsibility for accepting and assessing applications to change water access licences including:
- Change of water source (eg from a regulated river to a connected unregulated river).
- Change of category (eg from general security on a regulated river to high security).
- Subdivision, ie dividing the water access licence into parts (e.g. a licence for 10 unit shares divided into one licence for 7 unit shares and another licence for 3 unit shares).
- Consolidation, ie amalgamation of a number of water access licences into one.
- Change of nominated water supply works, ie changing the location from which water may be extracted.
Once approved, WaterNSW will provide a Notification dealing form to the applicant for lodgment with NSW LRS for updating of the WAL Register.
WaterNSW will provide an Application number for inclusion on or with the transfer form where the written consent of the Minister for Water is required for a change of the holder. Where applicable, the requirement for Minister's consent will appear on the WAL folio. The written consent of term transferees, mortgagees and chargees is also required for certain transactions.
Under the Water Management Act 2000, other information is required to be kept apart from the information maintained on the WAL Register.
The NSW Water Register maintained by WaterNSW provides information about:
- the status of approvals and approval applications
- the conditions of water access licences and approvals
- available water determinations
- water trading statistics.
Further Information
For further information on the WAL Register and associated transactions, contact our Customer Service Centre on T: 1300 052 637 or visit our Client Service Counter, ground floor, 1 Prince Albert Road Queens Square, Sydney.
For further information on all other matters relating to the Water Management Act 2000, telephone WaterNSW on 1300 662 077 or visit the WaterNSW website: www.waternsw.com.au

Can you put a bootable floppy in and get to a command prompt?
Hang on while I close my eyes and start throwing darts at a dartboard until I hit the right combination of numbers that match the letters in your operating system, hardware config etc. etc. etc.
Ah, I have it now.... Take your elbow off the "9" key....

it was an old hd, i just wanted something to install mandrake on, i dont know what was on it, i changed the pin to slave and hooked it up and booted the puter, i got a row of 99's i removed it and rebooted and the same row of 99's on xp pro, will make a floppy boot
Do you have the jumpers in the back of the HD configured right?
When death sleeps it dreams of you...
were your jumper settings both on CS or the primary on Master and secondary on Slave?
can you see both Hard Drives in BIOS? You may have corrupted your good disk which will lead you to reinstall both OS's. If you are going to do so, I would Dual Boot on one hard drive and use the other for backup storage you can use between both OSs.
1 was on primary and the added on slave
i got into recovery console, now i am stuck, its a foreign land to me
