text: 1. since there is a preamp in the bass, can I just plug headphones straight into it and jam? 2. Since the pickups are passive w/active electronics, is there anyway to bypass the active circuitry in case the battery dies? Bonus Question: Is the Battery issue with active basses overrated? Thank You, L

10 Subschool Augmentation Feats focuses on those spellchuckers who choose to focus on a specific subschool, and giving them a reason to do it. Following in the pattern that is the Bullet Point series, we've got a 4 page, 3 column layout with 3 pieces of B&W art...and that second piece of art, truly cool piece.
So, what are we talking about here when we say subschool augmentation feats...well, for example, let's take for instance the school of Conjuration...now under it we have several subschools, but for the purposes of this example, I'm going with Calling. So, very first feat in the PDF is Augment Calling, which has as a pre-requisite Spell Focus (conjuration)...now, benefit of said feat goes as follows...use a conjuration (calling) spell to call a creature, and you grant them eldritch protection against an energy type of your choosing. Augment Creation grants a bonus to Strength and Constitution for creature's you create, and a Hardness and hp bonus for items. Augment Polymorph allows for the ability to leave targeted points on a target out of a polymorph effect, allowing for abilities keyed to these targeted areas to remain in effect during the polymorph...hands to cast, mouths to speak, etc.
The school breakdown covers the spread for schools with subschools, and gives some interesting perks to these specialist spellchuckers. Of the set I found only one that felt kind of phoned in, and I say that not because it isn't good, but in comparison to the others in this product, this one felt...less. Augment Healing comes down to a roll twice, take the better roll. Yes, technically it is a sound mechanism and works, but it is also highly over-used and pretty utilitarian.
Now, before we wrap this up, we have teleportation to cover...or more specifically Augment Teleportation. It is mentioned here in this PDF with an explanation for why it is omitted from this collection, as it is in fact included in another Bullet Point, 6 Teleportation Spell Feats. Where as the idea of reprinting material is becoming more and more common for the sake of inclusion, I applaud the SGG crew's decision to not include this feat within this product, as we are talking about the #1 With a Bullet Point series. This series sticks with a small handful of material for a very small price, and I don't think reprinting material in a product of that nature would be well received.
So, final thoughts and wrap-up. 9 out of 10 impress me with their design, hands down. 1 struck me as perhaps not so much. Editing was excellent as usual, but I expect nothing less from the Bullet Point series. Am going to go with a 4.5 rating on this Bullet Point, only because the one feat just fell short for me. But, for the sake of this forum's rating system, I will be rounding up to a 5, because my problems with the feat are not it's mechanics, which are still sound and useful.

Her favorite part of the day is getting a hug and a kiss and an "I love you" from one of the individuals, who she has seen really come out of their shell in the past two years. Things like this are rewarding for Lisa.
To be successful she says "have patience and work hard to understand the individuals you work with. Try and see things through their eyes."
"Lisa is very in tune with the routines at Harris. She is very detailed oriented and helps keep the house running smoothly," stated Nicole Backer, Residence Manager. "She is also very compassionate and responds quickly to the needs of the individuals."
In her free time Lisa volunteers with the West Webster Fire Department (18 years), spends time with her stepdaughter and husband, sings in her church choir and enjoys coffee with her mom before work. Thank you Lisa for all of your hard work and attentiveness to the needs of the individuals at Harris Road!

I'm a thirty-something year old girl who just loves being creative. I started at a very young age making things with my hands and haven't stopped since. By day I decorate cakes and take care of my three boys and by nap/night time I create with paper.
I never ever imagined I would be a scrapbooker, but here I am combining my love of color, design, photos, and memories into one love.
Here on my little blogosphere I share me, my family, my photos, and my scrapbook projects.

I handled one of these at the gun shop. It is VERY light, and has an odd "carbon-fiber" finished 20 inch barrel, heat shield and receiver. The factory literature didn't list weight. I've heard of this HK related company. Does anyone out there have any experience with this pump gun or observations? I found an old thread on the auto from Fabarms, nothing on the pump. Thanks.

This may not be the definitive info you're looking for, but the FABARMS line seems well built.
I think they are also reasonably priced since they don't seem to be moving quickly. I think the only downside would be finding parts and aftermarket goodies.
Also, they seem to be popular for police shotguns in the Euro market, esp. by the Frogs. This may be taken w/ a grain of salt since shotguns are generally frowned upon in Europe.

Veterinarians warn that the "dog days of summer" can be a dangerous time for our companion animals.
Veterinarians warn that the "dog days of summer" can be a dangerous time for our companion animals.
They urge owners to take a few minutes to carefully plan and monitor their pet's outdoor activities and safeguard cats and dogs against suffering heat stroke, a serious health issue that can lead to death if not promptly treated by medical personnel.
According to Dr. Tom Burns, hospital director at Veterinary Associates of Cape Cod in South Yarmouth, the most common cause of heat stroke in dogs is leaving the animal in a hot car with poor ventilation.
"Many dog owners do not realize that even with the windows open and water in the car, the temperature still can quickly become deadly on a summer day," Burns begins. "Dogs cannot sweat beyond their feet to regulate body heat, and their main means of cooling is by panting."
Dogs that are muzzled are at much more risk of heat stroke since they cannot pant to cool themselves and sometimes suffer an untimely death.
The veterinarian emphasizes that since the airflow in a parked car is insufficient, the body temperature of a canine left behind in such a vehicle can elevate within minutes. If the dog becomes anxious or starts barking, its situation only gets worse.
"I suspect that dying of heat stroke in a parked car would be one of the worst ways for a dog to die," Burns comments.
Signs of heat stroke include heavy panting, salivation, lethargy, vomiting and diarrhea, and if not promptly treated, seizures and death.
"Safe reduction of body temperature is the goal," Burns continues, adding that after consulting with a veterinarian, an owner can douse the overheated dog with water, or apply wet towels to the canine's head, stomach, underarms, back and legs.
Pets should always be offered an ample bowl of cool, fresh water. Owners should quickly remove bowls of uneaten food, which can quickly spoil in the heat and cause gastric problems.
If the animal's body temperature was not elevated for an extended period of time, and the dog is otherwise healthy, Burns says the prognosis for the canine's recover is often good. However, if a dog survives a sustained period of heat stroke, organ damage and subsequent failure may occur, sometimes resulting in premature death.
"My first recommendation is to try to avoid peak sun time if at all possible," the veterinarian notes, adding that direct sunlight, especially when dogs are left in a yard without shade, can be deadly. In the summer, it's safer to walk dogs at dawn or dusk and only let them outside for a few minutes during the day to go to the bathroom.
Burns says owners can use regular sunscreen with a high sun protection factor (SPF) but it shouldn't contain zinc, which is toxic to dogs. Sunscreen can also be used in small amounts on cat ear tips, one of the most common areas where skin cancers develop in light-coated outdoor felines.
The small animal practitioner reports that overexertion in warm weather is another leading cause of heat stroke in dogs. Canines that are overweight, or members of a bracycephalic (short nosed) breed such as boxers, pugs, bulldogs, Boston terriers or French bulldogs, are highly susceptible.
"In these breeds, and in just excessively exercised or excited dogs, heat stroke can occur when it does not seem that hot or humid," Burns discloses.
While it's important that Man's Best Friend doesn't become overexerted when temperatures soar, all pets need some form of exercise throughout the year. Burns notes that cool dips in a pond or river can be a nice way to get a little activity while cooling off.
"It's also a great low impact exercise for overweight or arthritic pets," he adds, emphasizing that short swims should always be supervised by someone who has the ability to take action if the dog suddenly becomes ill or distressed.
Burns also urges dog owners to check for blue-green algae, which blooms in late summer in certain ponds throughout the SouthCoast and on Cape Cod. The toxic algae can kill a dog that drinks just a small amount of the poisoned pond water.
When owners take a few precautions to ensure their pet's health during the warmer weather, everyone will have a safe, healthy and enjoyable summer.

Most of the beverages are an integral part of everyday diet and a healthy balanced life. They are sources of energy and provide adequate hydration to the body. As food and beverage companies are developing products for a wide range of consumers to cater to their growing, insatiable needs. Majority of the beverages have a high fructose corn syrup, sugar, caffeine, or low calorie sweetener. All of these ingredients result in different types of beverages to satisfying varying demand of the consumers. The most commonly consumed beverage, however, is tea.
Huge Pool of Young Population Drives Global Beverage Ingredient Market
The growing young population is the biggest factor contributing towards growth of the global beverage ingredient market. Furthermore, growing number sporting events and increasing participation in the same, rise in the number of fast food chains, and wide range of flavors is fueling the growth the global beverage ingredients market.
Low Temperature Boosts Demand for Hot Beverages
Furthermore, low temperature in most of the western countries is also leading to the consumption of beverages that only require addition of hot water, which in turn is spurring the demand for beverage ingredients in this region.
Wide Range of Tastes Spur Demand in Beverage Ingredients Market
The introduction of a variety of beverage ingredients to offer new tastes to consumers is also expected to have a positive impact on the dynamics of the global beverage ingredient market. Light beverages or sugar free beverages that are easy on the weight issues offer a huge opportunity for growth to the global beverage ingredient market.
Despite the strong growth drivers, the global beverage ingredient market is being pulled back the health conscious consumers, who prefer fresh beverages to packaged items. Furthermore, the fact that excessive consumption of caffeinated drinks that leads to insomnia and fatigue is resulting is creating a negative impact on the market. Furthermore, though zero calorie beverages seem appealing, they have an overall harmful effect on the body, which is also hampering the growth of this market.

From the Score:
Nasty, Brutish, and Short
Amid the magic of medieval Mythic Europe, where shadows run deep and profound mysteries lure even the greatest wizards into danger, you are the line of defense between mortal perils and the magi. Your body - and perhaps your courage, training, and steel, but definitely your body - is meant to keep the swords and arrows and fangs of the world from breaking the flesh or concentration of your wizardly betters. While the most prestigious among you may carry shields to protect the magi from harm, some of you protect them from cold and hunger and the schemes of the mortal world outside the covenant.
A covenant is like an abbey for a community of wizards. It's made up of masters and apprentices, books and laboratories, and includes all the servants and staff that keep the place in order. Like you. Your covenant dwells in something like a hidden castle in the countryside, near a village and a more traditional, martial castle.
The world, out there, teems with wolves and monsters and fay tricks and angry rivals and suspicious priests. Wizards dare to learn about magic and the world despite all the risks to life and limb - your life and your limbs.
The common folk don't trust wizards. Anyone who's not a wizard is probably common folk. You're common folk. But you count on wizards for food and shelter and a purpose in life.

The Role of Culture in Sustainable Development
Systematically integrating cultural specificities in the conception, measurement, and practice of development is imperative as it ensures the involvement of the local population and a desirable outcome of development efforts.
Sustainable tourism, cultural and creative industries, and heritage-based urban revitalization are powerful economic subsectors that generate green employment, stimulate local development, and foster creativity.
Local and indigenous knowledge systems and environmental management practices provide valuable insight and tools for tackling ecological challenges, preventing biodiversity loss, reducing land degradation, and mitigating the effects of climate change.
In the transition to green societies, dialogue and tolerance will be key for mutual understanding and the building of bridges among nations and countries, leading to a culture of peace, which is a prerequisite for sustainable development. In that context, we must make the most of the world's cultural diversity, as it fosters development and social cohesion.
Although there is still much work to be done on fully integrating culture into the international development policies, Rio+20 has been an important step in mainstreaming the role of culture. We now need to build on this progress to ensure culture's ability to support truly sustainable development is fully harnessed by all and that culture is a key part of the post-2015 development framework.

Marcus Pedestal is rated out of 5 by 4.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Wondergirl from Marcus Urn The delivery company worked with me unboxing this beauty. They took all the cardboard and packing excelsior away with them! This urn is a gorgeous addition to my front landscape. The landscape designer worked wonders with the drainage in my architectural hardscape feature ! I would highly recommend this product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Niecyw from Stunning This urn is amazing and looks perfect on top of my extended outdoor fireplace. It looks close to the color advertised (mine is a bit lighter colored) and was the perfect piece that I needed. I have no regrets.

Rated 1 out of 5 by nikole from Color is nothing like the picture Just received my urn- and the color is so dark- almost black- not at all what the picture looks like. Very disappointing- wanted to order 5 more to go in our entry way but this will not work. Would send it back, but the thing is so heavy it will be an inconvenience to do so.

drilling a hole
Hello, I bought 4 (four) of the Marcus Urn's and my gardener wants to find out is if he can drill a bigger hole into the bottom of the urn; 3inches deep and 2 inches wider for the water/drain pipes. Will the Urn's crack if he uses a ceramic drill bit to enlarge the opening at the bottom? Look forward to hearing from you. Thank you.
I would be so afraid that the urn will crack, possibly crumble? Can your person attach a PVC elbow to the existing PVC that is already in the drain? My landscape designer had no problem securing drainage pipes for my urn.

About Personal Me
I carry a Sharpie with me so I can sniff it when I stress. My bra size remains the same no matter how much weight I gain or lose. I will kick your ass six ways from Sunday if you dare to play Trivial Pursuit: 90s Edition with me. It took a Masters in religion, a 75-page thesis on a pop culture Christ-figure, and a stint in the United Methodist Candidacy for Ordination program for me to realize I was a humanist at heart. I have more degrees than a pot of boiling water, which makes me unemployable in Arkansas. I eat a bowl of steel cut oats every morning for breakfast and drink a glass of buttermilk every night before going to bed. When I get nervous, I quiz myself on world capitals. I watch too much television.
I'm okay with all that.
For questions about me or this site, you can reach me via email at dropedgeofyonder [at] gmail [dot] com.
For questions about my freelance services please go here.
More random things about me you probably don't want to know:
- I've never broken a bone, and I've never had stitches. This is odd because of my innate clumsiness.
- With rare exceptions, I don't listen to music. I am, however, completely obsessed with NPR. This American Life is the best show ever.
- My house is 95% chemical free. It turns out I couldn't live without shampoo or deodorant, although cider vinegar spritzed in your hair works wonders for detangling.
- I always thought Kate from John and Kate Plus Eight was evil.
- I make better bulgogi than the bulgogi restaurant down the street.
- Cheese, buttermilk, sour cream, cottage cheese: I am all about the rotten milk. Surprisingly, I can't stand "regular" milk.
- I stopped reading books about five years ago; since then, it's been nothing but blogs, forums, news sites and fanfic.
- The worst thing I ever said in the classroom was, "Spit or swallow; it's up to you." What? The kid was chewing gum.
- Coffee makes me poop.
- It drives me absolutely insane that Facebook doesn't allow markup. I need my italics!
- I can't believe I'm this far into this list and haven't mentioned Whedon or something Whedon-related yet.
- One time when I was seven we visited my daddy's friend Grace in Oklahoma. Her husband was the guy who repaired the games at Showbiz Pizza, and I got an unlimited supply of tokens. BEST DAY EVER.
- My yoga class is made of win.
- I believe sweet potatoes are candy that grow in the ground.
- In second grade Pam Lozano had a powder blue satin jacket with a silk-screened picture of Shaun Cassidy on the back that said "Legend in His Own Time." I coveted that jacket.
- Debra Messing bugs the shit out of me.
- One of my sisters keeps telling people we're distantly related to Garth Brooks. She never tells anybody we're distantly related to a serial killer. I ask you, which do you think is more interesting and/or less embarrassing? (Hint: The only friends the serial killer had in low places were those he killed and buried.)
- I really wish I had a Route 44 Cherry Coke from Sonic and a bag of homemade Chex Mix.
- That last item was a code.
- I judge people based on their grammar, but I try not to let it show.
- I would rather kids pee in my pool knowing the chemicals will kill anything bad than have them traipse through my house dripping wet.
- I've spent entirely too much time thinking about how I would survive on a deserted island.
- It really rubs me the wrong way when people say "desert" island. I think when most people say this, they mean an isolated but tropical locale.

One thing we have learnt about having a workshop
on a National Trust property is Patience,
nothing ever happens straight away.
We are fine with that
the one thing we both have plenty of is patience.
We were told that the building works would start on the 7th January 2013
with the scaffolding going up first.
and sure enough up it goes.
The second thing that was due to happen was the Electricians
were going to start installing a new electric control panel this week,
so the power was going to be on and off at points.
So we thought great lets take an extra week off and just let them get on with it.
Monday morning email:
you guessed it
" electrics now starting next week".
Wednesday morning email
You guessed!
Electrics now starting week after next!
I think we might earn more money this year
if we ran a book on when the workshop
will be finished.
But following our visits to Winchcombe and Toff Milway
earlier this week, we are really starting to get excited
about this great new space.
keep posted for stage by stage updates.

Historical Reference Data with ArangoDb
When traveling from point A to point B you want an overall pleasant journey. Compared to driving, flying is much more complicated due to multiple factors that can delay your flight (weather or air traffic) or increase waiting times (security check, luggage check-in, flight delays, etc.). FlightStats lays the data-centric groundwork for a perfect journey.
All major airlines, airports, hotels, and leading search engines use FlightStats´ products to help improve their services. Our data reaches more than 35% of global air travelers each day and the data request to our systems exceed 300 million each month.
The Challenge
Aviation data is fragmented and not uniformed to one standard. Flight status, weather, reference data, FAA Airport Delays and many other data sources may affect the whole customer journey from destination A (e.g. home) to your final destination B (e.g. hotel). Data from all these sources have to be harmonized, normalized, and transformed to get accurate analytical or predictive results.
We maintain and use reference data for airlines, airports and equipment. This data has been maintained across many tables in a relational database. We were running into multiple data related challenges and decided we need to do the following:
- Store reference data with temporal information
- Make it easier to change schema as future needs arise
- Improve our authoring web UI
- Reduce load on our relational database
- Provide API access to the reference data
We needed a document database that allowed us to easily query the data by effective date. Storing and processing data from more than 30k airports and airlines is a challenge itself but for our needs, it's necessary to store each modification of those entities with its effective date as a document as well (i.e. key = id + effective_date). All changes and their effective date have a significant impact on historical reports and thus on our predictive analytics.
For our partners and data sources we needed a solution which enables easy access to multiple environments and a versatile, performance API layer. Due to the growth of our company in terms of API requests, external data sources, and quantity of data, we faced the need for a scalable solution.
Furthermore, our team was and is growing fast. Therefore we need good documentation of the technology we use at FlightStats to get new team members up to speed, especially on advanced topics.
Our Solution
Our reference data is best suited to a document tree format hence using a dedicated document store was our first idea. We experimented with a variety of databases – some of them market leaders in NoSQL – but quickly ran into limitations like expressing non trivial queries in a readable way or pushing performance to the required level.
By chance we found ArangoDB from Germany and it turned out the database was a perfect fit for us. ArangoDB is a multi-model database that let's you handle data as key/value, graphs and as documents of course. We could solve all the issues concerning our requirements:
- We tested ArangoDB intensively and performance was really good.
- It enabled us to easily access stored data from multiple environments. HTTP API's ensure this. Currently we are hitting ArangoDB from a node web app as well as a clojure server app.
- Because of their framework Foxx for data-centric microservices we were able to provide new, sophisticated APIs super fast and let any logic run directly in the database.
- The documents were good enough to quickly get us up and going with ArangoDB; they have a good amount of depth for advanced topics; and we feel they could easily be consumed by other team members at FlightStats. It´s also the best API documentation I've seen (Swagger API implementation).
Having a "Go" on these issues we could start with our project and store the reference data of airlines, airports, weather, equipment, and locations with their effective date.
Our Benefits
Reference data is now used for all of our data products that refer to Airports (Terminals, Gates, referred to from trips, flights), Airlines (referred to from trips, flight alerts, etc), and equipment (which type of aircraft). It is vital that the data be accurate and up-to-date. ArangoDB is making it easy for us to add temporal effectiveness to the data – which is useful for both historical reporting as well as making changes that we know will be effective in the near future.
A big bonus for us is the freedom to scale ArangoDB along FlightStats necessities. In other parts of our organization we have the need for graph models and can easily bring graph-teams up to speed with our experiences with ArangoDB.
AQL (ArangoDB Query Language) is a powerful query language and its intuitive nature made it easy to adapt. We are working in a fast paced environment, quick iterations and prototyping is very important. With the microservice framework Foxx we save a lot of time and effort and get basic environments up and running in hours. Our team is constantly growing and due to good documentation we are able to bring new members up to speed in no time.
Overall ArangoDB is a sophisticated technology meeting high quality needs and we are keen to drive the implementation further for other use cases.

Is it possible to have my password and user name saved for logging in to a website i use often?
The stock browser should prompt you and ask if you want to save it. Yes, it is possible.
Edit: Ooops. This is a HTC Eris. Sorry, didn't realize what thread it was in when I answered. The Moto Droid definitely does.
