Issue quote:
"When I drew nigh the nameless city I knew it was accursed. I was traveling in a parched and terrible valley under the moon, and afar I saw it protruding uncannily above the sands as parts of a corpse may protrude from an ill-made grave. Fear spoke from the age-worn stones of this hoary survivor of the deluge, this great-grandfather of the eldest pyramid; and a viewless aura repelled me and bade me retreat from antique and sinister secrets that no man should see, and no man else had dared to see."

So, I have just been informed by my lovely and handsome boyfriend that he has next week off... I have also been informed that he wants to go on a last minute, mini holiday! YAY! I absolutely love it when Jake surprises me like this, especially when it's his shout ;)
The only question now is, where to go on such short notice for such a short amount of time? Jake wants to go south since we basically live at the Gold Coast lately, and will literally be living there soon, but I just can't make up my mind with all the pretty beaches south to where we live to choose from. What do you think?
These places are all quite close to home and quite beautiful, but for some reason I'm always drawn to the north? Maybe it's my impending excitement about moving there? Maybe its just cos I think it will be warmer? (as if it needs to be! It's 6pm here and still a sweltering 28 degrees!)
Anyway, the place I'd really like to go is Cabarita beach, or maybe Fingal Head? They're both north and both lovely! I don't know why, but they're always my first port of call when an opportunity like this arises!
Of course, I do have a custom order lingering over my head waiting to be done, a handmade gift exchange present to finish and absolutely zero stock for the impending relocation of The Corner Store, but that can all wait right? I mean I can take my crochet with me to do at night time, and the gift exchange present is nearly done - I can't help that I ran out of white cotton for my overlocker!
With all this in hand though, I am still excited for some time away, just me and Jake. Living with parents can be so restricting to a relationship sometimes and it's nice when we get alone time together :) Besides, the gift exchange present is almost done, and I'm starting to wish I could keep it for myself because its turning out so nice! I will have no troubles getting cotton and finishing it over the weekend and I have all the time in the world to get stock made.
Well, someone help me decide where to go next week. Where would you go if you got to have a spur-of-the-moment, mini holiday? Do you know of any other nice places on the Far North Coast of NSW that Jake and I could go to?
Hopefully I will have some more posts about craft and sewing for you soon, I'm very busy trying new things so if they all work out, I should have quite a wealth of things to show you! Bye for now, I'm off to lie in front of a fan somewhere... xx

This is our first trip, which requires traveling by plane, together and we are both very excited, plus, I get to meet his whole family for the first time and can't wait! He got the chance to meet mine while my family was out in LA doing some wedding planning for my younger sister and then the rest of the bunch at my sister's actual wedding back in October.
I promise to take lots of pics, since that is what I love to do, and document our travels for a post upon my return! Thank you all for your continued support and without further ado, here is your packing 101 in 10 easy steps! Enjoy! :)
STEP 2: Pack Accessories
If I have particular jewelry for certain dressier events, which have their own clutch, I like to pack the jewelry for that outfit in the clutch that matches it to keep it all together.
As for other more every day jewelry and accessories, I place them in separate plastic bags to keep them from getting to tangled, easy to see and get to.
You will see that I pack my chunky bangles around a mini travel umbrella, because it keeps their shape and helps keep from having wasted space. I have also done this by putting my bracelets around rolled socks in the winter!
STEP 3: Pack Make-Up
I try to pack more natural make-up, which I use on an everyday basis. Mostly I use drug store brand make-up, aside from Make-Up Forever HD translucent powder, and am not really into big name products, such as MAC, department store brands, etc., kind of like with my fashion...I prefer to get more affordable things when possible, not to say those brands aren't great too!
The reason I have the Smashbox pallet is because my sister gave it to me for Christmas and I love it, especially the hot pink case...hehe...but wouldn't buy as high end on my own on a regular basis, but it is nice!
Now, if I am packing for a certain dressy event or holiday, such as a wedding and Easter in the case of my trip this time, I make sure I have make up that matches that outfit for sure and pack eyelashes, just in case.
Also, I do not wear foundation on a daily basis, only for weddings, red carpets, events, Holiday parties and nights when lots of pictures might be taken because it reads better in pictures and helps from washing you out, while keeping a smoother look.
Side note, when it comes to being on set they do full coverage and when working on soaps, I even get a fake body tan with make-up, but that is above and beyond anything needed in everyday life! :)
STEP 4: Pack Toiletries
I like to take travel sizes of toiletries whenever possible, especially if I can get them in the brands I use daily.
In fact, my mother always encouraged us to take travel size and when we didn't she used to joke "why what small toiletries you have," since we had the huge, full size ones, and when my younger sister used to not put them in appropriate, organized, carrying bags, she would laugh and say "I love your matching luggage," because they were random plastic bags, such as Target, Macy's, etc.! LOL!
I found a great black, mesh travel bag at Forever 21 back years ago, when I was living in NYC, and I still use it to this day and love it because it also allows me to see what is inside while keeping it stylish too and you know it's affordable when you see Forever 21! ;)
STEP 5: Bulk Individual Outfits Together
From lots of travel over the years, I have come to find that it is easiest to fold and bulk individual outfits together, so when you pull them out of your suitcase everything is in a nice, organized little bundle! That means I fold in all part of the outfit as well as underwear and any socks, etc.
If an outfit is sharing part of another outfit, a really good thing to do while traveling to pair down the amount you are bringing and save room, I have those next to each other bundled, keeping the shared item separate between them to make it easy to access!
STEP 6: Stack Outfit Piles To Pack
I then stack the outfit bundles on top of each other, in 2 to 3 piles to fit the width of the suitcase I'm taking, with those I will need at the start of the trip on top and those near the end at the bottom.
STEP 7: Pack Outfit Piles, Toiletries & Accessories In Suitcase
Each of those outfit bundles then go into the suitcase and shoes go side by side in their own bundle along with other odds and ends, such as umbrellas, gifts, if traveling with any as I am this time, etc. and get placed wherever they best fit...you have to think of packing in a suitcase as a completing a puzzle!
Fun side note, I find engineers, like my extraordinary dad, are some of the best packers, be in packing a car, a package to mail or a suitcase, because they think very mathematically and seem to see things fitting in pieces, part by part! :)
STEP 8: Layout Complete Plane Outfit
To keep the travel and trip as stress-free as possible, especially when you have a really early flight and might be running on little sleep, it is best to have the outfit you plan to wear for travel and on the plane set out the night before.
I lay everything out, including underwear, accessories, the outfit itself, jacket, sunglasses, plane ticket and purse and/or carry with wallet, notepad, pen, mini perfume, travel pill case, brush, gum, etc. packed inside, all out and ready to go!
STEP 9: Organize Snacks & Cary On Items
I then pack up some little snacks for the plane, time while waiting at the airport and/or during layovers because even if you aren't hungry at the moment or plan to eat before you go and then when you get to where you are going, sometimes you run out of time or get stuck somewhere, especially with the uncertainty of flying these days, and my parents always taught us that it is best to have something for cases like that!
In addition, I usually pack some reading material, which for me consists of magazines, I'm not a big reader and books aren't really my friend...bad, I know, and my parents would love for me to read more, but alas, I like the pictures! ;)
I also usually travel with my laptop, but during this shorter trip I am not, but if I do, it is great for carrying magazines too! Then, I make sure I have my earphones to listen to music and any other items needed, which sometimes include a script for work, etc.
STEP 10: Weigh Your Bag, Have Ticket & I.D. And You're Ready To Go
After I make sure I come in under 50 lbs., to be on the safe side, I check in online, print out my ticket, double check that I have my I.D., credit cards and some cash, a travel must according to my dad, I set it all by my front door and am ready to go! :)
So there you have it, in these 10 easy steps you can be sensibly packed and ready to go on your next adventure! With a little pre-thingking and organization it will hopefully help you have as stress-free travel as possible...and remember to enjoy the your trip!
I will be sure to document the week of adventure ahead and post a trip wrap up blog with oodles of pictures upon my return, but until then, I hope you all have a very Happy Easter and I hope this followed along the lines of what you wanted per your wonderful comment suggestions and keep them coming! :)

Surprisingly sharp increase in employment in April
Lower scale of rises in retail trade reduced wage growth
In accordance with GUS data published today, nominal wage dynamics in the sector of enterprises employing more than 9 persons dropped to 4.1% YoY in April vs. 5.2 % in March, running below our forecast (4.4%) and the market consensus (4.5%).
Conducive to lower wage growth was the abatement of the effect of bonuses paid in mining (see MACROpulse of 19/4/2017). Wage growth was also negatively impacted by the high base effect from the year before in the category "retail trade" caused by last year's pay rises in Biedronka retail chain (see MACROpulse of 16/6/2017). The retail chain increased wages also in April 2017, however, the scale of the pay rise on a monthly basis was much lower than in April 2016 which was conducive to lower annual wage growth. The decrease in nominal wage dynamics between March and April resulted also from the unfavourable difference in the number of working days (in March 2017 the number of working days was higher by one day than in 2016, while in April 2017 it was lower by two days than the year before), lowering the dynamics of piecework pay.
Real, price-adjusted corporate wages dropped to 2.0% YoY in April vs. 3.2% in March, due to slower growth of nominal wages and stabilization of CPI inflation in April (see MACROpulse of 12/5/2017).
Bad weather has not stopped increase in employment
According to GUS data, corporate employment rose by 9.4k MoM in April vs. a 5.5k increase in March. Consequently, the annual dynamics of employment rose to 4.6% YoY in April vs. 4.5% in March. The annual dynamics of employment increased despite the adverse weather conditions limiting seasonal increase in employment (the average temperature in April 2016 was the lowest since 2003). It points to ongoing strong demand for labour in the Polish corporate sector. We expect a mild decrease of the annual employment growth in subsequent months as the improvement in the labour market will gradually slow down.
Wage fund data support our forecast of private consumption in Q2
We estimate that real wage fund dynamics (employment times average remuneration) in enterprises dropped to 6.7% YoY in April vs. 7.7% YoY in March. The decrease in real wage fund growth rate supports our forecast of private consumption dynamics in Q2 2017 (3.6% YoY vs. 4.1% in Q1 2017).
Today's data from the labour market are, in our opinion, neutral for PLN and yields on Polish bonds.

Earlier this month, we showed you the first trailer (more of a teaser) for the new series of Top Gear. Now there is a second trailer and it shows us a lot more of the action…
The new trailer sees Matt LeBlanc, Chris Harris and Rory Reid behind the wheel of all sorts of new cars – the monstrous Bugatti Chiron, the Ford GT and the Ferrari FXX K are just a few examples. We know they like their head-to-heads, too, so there's a glimpse of a battle between the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio and the BMW M3 – Predictable, really. Not quite so predictable is the Lamborghini Huracan Spyder up against the Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet tackling some pretty deep snow.
It's already gearing up to be a considerable amount better than the last series and that's not only down to the absence of Chris Evans. The content itself does look a lot more entertaining.
The new series of Top Gear arrives on our screens (in the UK) at 8pm on Sunday 5th March on BBC Two and BBC Two HD. Looking forward to it?

Companies and shareholders: company's purchase of own shares: Treasury shares
Before 1 December 2003, if a company purchased its own shares it was obliged to cancel them. However, from 1 December 2003, the Companies Act allows a listed company to hold repurchased shares 'in treasury' instead of cancelling them, subject to certain restrictions. Companies whose shares are dealt in on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM) of the London Stock Exchange are 'listed' for this purpose. Treasury shares may then be either cancelled or resold, and can be used to fulfil employee share options and share schemes instead of issuing new shares.
A company is owned by its shareholders, not by itself. A company cannot have rights in respect of its own shares. The rights attaching to treasury shares (rights to vote, for example, or to receive distributions) are suspended and for most tax purposes the shares are treated as having been cancelled.
Stamp duty does not apply to any instrument selling on or transferring treasury shares unless it comes within the 1.5 per cent charge for transfers to clearance services or depositaries (FA99/SCH13 (1)(5)).
The principal charge to SDRT does not apply to an agreement to transfer own shares held by the company, including treasury shares (FA86/S90(7A)). As for stamp duty above, there will be a charge at the rate of 1.5 per cent if the treasury shares are transferred to a clearance service or depositary.

Parent and Child Groups
The school runs sessions which have a rhythm similar to a morning in the kindergarten. Periods of activity and play are balanced with quieter times for rest, stories and songs. These mornings can provide valuable support for parents and carers who come away feeling nurtured and refreshed as well as giving a good introduction to the life of our school.
To register your interest in our Parent and Child groups please email the school office at firstname.lastname@example.com and you will be allocated a place on the waiting list.
Attendance at parent and child groups does not automatically lead to a place in one of the kindergartens. Parents must attend an open tour to register on our waiting list for kindergarten. More information about open tours can be found here: http://www.stpaulssteinerschool.org/?page_id=21
For further information about early years see: http://www.stpaulssteinerschool.org/?page_id=21

East Texans' love for their guns and the gun sports and hobbies they're used for is well known. But not everyone can participate based on age requirements for handguns. Now, the National Rifle Association hopes to change that. Casey Evans, co-owner of Evans Brothers Gun Store and Range in Huntington, believes they can do it. "The NRA is the largest lobbying group in the country and probably the most successful," he said.

Yeah, so my above post seems kinda silly, but after reading more in the ladies forum, I'm convinced it makes the right point. There are differences between "the wiring" or whatever you want to call it, general differences in communication, that many guys posting things about "I want to buy my girl a gun" seem to be not getting.
If your lady isn't into the gun thing because she's scared/inexperienced/etc. I would suggest, in addition to all the great things people have to say about all this, thinking about not just the technical aspects, but the whole picture. It's not just about getting her to the range and firing the guns, it's about creating a whole experience that is positive. You wouldn't ask a girl out and tell her she's gonna have the best time ever, and then pick her up without showing/shaving/dressing nicely. You wouldn't then throw a half eaten hamburger at her and say, "there's dinner, now lets tongue." No sir! Not if you want to get anywhere at least. No, you would plan it out. You would shower, shave, clean out your car, take her somewhere decent, be polite, etc. Same thing applies to new experiences that you like, but she may not be thrilled about. I'm not saying women need coddling because honestly, I would recommend this kind of planning for any new experience for anyone (man, woman, child, horse, dog, etc.) No, not saying you should date a horse or dog. Creating positive experiences around the issue helps the person associate the scary or new thing with good things. You increase your chances of success.
If she is into guns, make it a "lets do this together" thing. You know, relationship building junk. Ask Dr. Phil, I'm sure he'd agree that spending time together to make a purchase [of a firearm] is better than just a purchase.
Make it a day together, make it a date. That way it's an experience, not a stressful few hours of, "you learn this, then that, no hold it this way, no not like that, what's wrong with you anyway" kinda thing. Who knows, you might just get lucky (success in any form is my meaning of lucky, but far be it from me to stop you from reading into this word) for all your extra effort. good luck men.

Happy Saturday :-) Thought I'd share ......
I need to do some sewing today.
Looks like it's gonna rain big time here.

hey Hun - fabulous start and soooo Brave to Post - DO NOT STOP - it's the shading you need to do next - do a boring grey scale (see tinterweb)it will help you understand what artists call the value scale - creating depth from use of light and dark 'values' - then look at your drawn face and start to add shading to the areas that need to be darker - I can't give Suzi's secrets away but EVERY ONE knows it's the shading and blending ( subtle changes in light and dark across the image) that counts....
grab one of my faces (not a suzi one) off MY website not the blog (you and you alone have my written permission here) and open it up in photoshop (if you have it) and really exaggerate the shading - it will show you where you need to add dark and leave light on your face.
If you do not have Photochop use origami and scissors!:
your nose is a bit too low and the eyes are a tad too close together- fold the paper so it moves nose higher & cut the paper and move the eyes apart & look at the effect it has, put a mid shade grey (light strokes using your pencil held like you are stroking the paper with a feather) UNDER for eye lid to half way down the eye ball (shade thrown over the eye by the lid) and draw in another arch over the top eye lid (it's the shsde of your eye socket), use a 2h, don't worry that it looks like a photo fit - first time faces are just experimentation - if you draw Every Day by next week you will amaze yourself with your progress - Do Not Give Up
I can see you LOve to Draw - save your hard earned cash and do a class - it is worth every penny - stop eating for a while & use the housekeeping money!!!!

Personally, I think you have a lot of talent when it comes to drawing. I can't even draw a snowman and it's just three circles. So I am NOT the person to ask. However, after reading Doone's comment, I remembered there is a web site somewhere from years ago (which means I can't remember where it is and my old bookmarks went away when my computer died last winter) that drew an oval, then drew three imaginary horizontal lines and one vertical line on the oval and began to show where everything needed to be relative to the oval. One thing I remembered was the the line for the eyes needs to be nearly in the center of the oval, which shocked me. I would have put them much higher.
There are tons of examples on the internet and a good search will afford you with beginning lessons. I think you can do this yourself, with help from what's available on the web.
Thanks for the cuttlebug flower pounding tip. I might try it with my Sizzex. It's not good for much else (grin) since I only have two dies.

B&E is right:
this is free and very good:
this is a good starter for face proportions - with yours your 'top half' is fine - you've just elongated the face a bit....

Well done for having a go ann. It looks great to me as I can't draw. I see Doone has given you lots of advice so look forward to seeing how you progress.
Not raining here yet, but I will go and get my washing in!

a girl after my own heart I'd love to draw like Doone, but take heart cos I also used to look longingly at journals by Dyan Reavely and Kate Crane, and wish I could do them, bit by bit I am getting there so there is hope for us un-natural artists, just have fun :)

Hi Anne,
From a person who has lived with 3 talented sisters and a talented brother, I can tell you the trick is to just keep at it, and don't be too hard on yourself! Your drawing is beautiful and if you keep at it, it will get even more beautiful! Patsy from

What Continuing and Community Education programmes are offered in Samoa?
Adult lifelong learning activities include:
Programmes range from creative writing and dancing, floral art, tie and dye fabric painting, elei and screen-printing, computer awareness classes, and music classes.

Women are the main participants and a large number have gained skills whaich have improved their quality of life, provided them with more choices such as income generating activities. This has contributed to the improvement of the socioeconomic situation of many families.

Here are two examples:
Ruta: A graduate and retired university lecturer actively involved in community voluntary work in NGOs, does consultancies from time to time. She enrolled in a floral art workshop, for personal enhancement.
Ruta devotes spare time to her garden around her home and has applied her knowledge from the workshop to the many arrangements inside her home.
Maina: A housewife who attended one of the early floral art workshops in the 80s, the only training she had received. Maina then set up a floral art business that is sustainable through her personal garden around her home. Additional flowers and foliage are obtained from other gardeners. Maina is dedicated to her small business and her garden is a testimony to her commitment.
Expressive arts
The creative writing group that was active during the 80s and early 90s included well known Samoan writers Sano Malifa, Ruperake Petaia, Noumea Simi, and Momoe von Reiche. The activities of this group led to publications that have provided the local writers with outlets of their work. Similarly, creative dancing and music are other areas somewhat untapped and offer potential for further development. The first USP BA in Expressive Arts, Alan Alo, commenced his degree while he was a staff member at the USP Samoa Centre. During Alans time at the Centre, he was instrumental in staging a number of drama and music productions.

Other academic activities e.g. public seminars, public lectures, research, publications, and consultancies.
(i) Public lectures and seminars
Visits by academic staff from other campuses occur from time to time. These provide opportunities for public lectures such as that by Dr Tracy Berno of the Department of Tourism. This lecture was also an opportunity for collaboration between the Centre and Samoa Polytechnic which offers a Hospitality training programme, and the Samoa Tourism Authority. The sharing of costs enabled each of the three to derive some benefit at minimal costs. The lecture focused on international tourism and what it meant for Samoa.
Alafua campus has commenced its public lecture series for 2007 and in April, Dr Irene Taafaki, Campus Director of Marshall Islands Campus delivered a presentation on Traditional Medicine in Marshall Islands that informed about the research and publication on this topic.
Impact: Continuing and community education offered through public lectures provided an avenue for the community to increase their awareness of global events and trends, bringing an international perspective to local dimensions.
In addition to the programmes and activities described above, the Campus is actively involved in consultancies, research and publications which are other ways of community outreach.
Research projects have resulted in Publications which are avenues of disseminating the findings of research work. Examples are:
Continuing and Community Education in Samoa has great potential and future development will make use of the programmes in place as well as developing new programmes to respond to the needs of the country. Sports, Art and culture are some of those areas. Then again, Alafua campus is ready to develop new programmes cater to new demands.

THOUSANDS of marchers are expected to attend a large Orange Order parade in the centre of Glasgow today, amid calls from police and organisers for the event to pass off peacefully.
The annual procession, known as the County Grand Orange Order parade, will see traffic restrictions on some of the city's streets as marchers mark the 1690 Battle of the Boyne.
The event, leaving from Cathedral Square, is one of the largest operations Police Scotland deals with each year.
Officers, who are expecting hundreds of others to watch and follow the parade, have warned members of the public to "leave the booze and the bigotry behind" if they are attending the event.
The warning has been echoed by the Grand Orange Lodge of Scotland.
Police Scotland Chief Superintendent Andy Bates, who is overseeing policing of the event, said: "Generally it is the unwelcome minority who turn up and use the event as an excuse to drink and cause offence who we have to deal with rather than the marchers themselves.
"We will not tolerate any sectarian or antisocial behaviour nor drinking in public. My officers will target anyone intent on causing any type of disruption on the day.
"Our message is clear - come along and enjoy the day. However, commit any offence, sectarian or otherwise, and you will be arrested."
Last year's event saw arrests for offences such as disorder and drinking in public.
The force said it has been working closely with the Orange Order to ensure this year's parade passes off peacefully and safely.
Eddy Hyde, of the Grand Orange Lodge of Scotland, said: "As we look ahead to the Glasgow parade, and indeed to all of our main summer parades this year, we once again call upon every member of the Orange Order to enjoy the day with the utmost decorum.
"Our parades are a celebration of our heritage, not an excuse for anyone to criticise anyone else's faith or beliefs."
The event comes around a month after the order held a day dubbed "Orangefest" in Glasgow, despite major opposition voiced online.

CLIFF BENNETT & THE REBEL ROUSERS-Got To Get You Into My Life/Baby Each Day U.K. Parlophone R 5489 1966
Few Fab Four covers rarely come off and if and when they do they're rarely better than the original. There are exceptions and we here at "Anorak Thing" take pleasure in sharing them with you (see October 23, 2008 entry). Cliff Bennett and The Rebel Rousers were one of those great British 60's groups who had the chops, put on a great live show, had the great EMI behind them, looked mod as hell but existed pretty much on covers of American records. Most of the time they did a good job at it. Being on EMI they rubbed elbows with The Fab Four and on occasion toured with them. This association led to Paul McCartney offering Cliff and Co. a track from their yet to be released LP "Revolver" called "Got To Get You Into My Life" which they began playing and the decision was made to release a version as a single with Macca duly producing in a session at EMI's Abbey Road facilities (walking there from his nearby flat in slippers).
Though I won't say it betters The Beatles version it's equally on par thanks to a rush of horns, some solid drumming (way better than Ringo's in my book, and I'm saying that with peace and love) and a nice wash of Hammond hidden in the intro. Cliff Bennett's vocals are as strong and confident s always and add a more soulful touch to the track than The Beatles version. The British record buying public must've dug it too because it became the band's biggest hit reaching #6 in August 1966. The flip "Baby Each Day" is probably my favorite track by the band (tied with their reading of "Three Rooms And Running Water") and it's a rare instance of a band original (composed by Cliff). It's soulful in delivery and the horns and stops/breaks are thoroughly "American" sounding . Amazing stuff. Both cuts are on the CD reissue of their 1966 LP "Got To Get You Into Our Life".
Watch "Got To Get You Into My Life" Live on German TV's "Beat Club" July 1, 1966

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Mac Apps and Mac App Store' started by apoz, Feb 13, 2008.
How can you print the notes you've made in Preview?
Command P? Or do you mean the notes on their own?
even file, print works
If you command print, the pdf is printed but not the notes that I've made
same problem here. Any solutions anybody?
Yes. I second the desire to figure out how to do this. I'd like to see my notes on the printed copy as well!
Edit: I have a work-around. It's somewhat ugly & very convoluted, but it works and yields a PDF with notes printed in the last page(s) from Preview.
1. Install Skim: http://skim-app.sourceforge.net/
2. Open your annotated PDF in Skim.
3. Select File -> Convert Notes...
4. Manually edit the notes to delete everything except note comments (as desired).
5. Select File -> Export...
6. Select "Notes as RTFD" from the "File Format:" menu & save
7. Open the RTFD file in Text Edit
8. Select File -> Print...
9. Click the PDF button and select "Save as PDF..." and save
10. Open your original PDF with notes in Preview (Make sure your sidebar is visible (View -> Sidebar) and it displays pages as thumbnails (select list at bottom of sidebar))
11. Drag your Notes file (from step 12) to the bottom of Preview's sidebar
*phew*. Now you can save & print your PDF with your notes on the last page(s).
Apologies for replying to a very old thread, but I just came across this when googling for the solution, then noticed the solution, so wanted to share that with anyone else that stumbles onto this page.
The solution in Mountain Lion is to command-p, click 'Show Details' (if details aren't already being shown), then 'Show Notes' (under the 'Preview' set of options).
This solution worked great for me. Note that after showing the notes, I also tried to "print" as a PDF and open in Preview. This causes my Preview to crash.

Islamic State (Isis) has claimed responsibility for an attack in Belgium in which a machete-wielding man targeted two female police officers outside the main police station in the city of Charleroi. The news came after law enforcement revealed the attacker was a 33-year-old Algerian who was previously known to the authorities, but not for terror-related activities.
Identified only as 'KB' the man had reportedly lived in Belgium since 2012.
Only 24 hours after the incident, which occurred on 6 August, the Amaq News Agency – the propaganda arm of IS (Daesh) – claimed responsibility for the attack.
"The executor of the attack in Charleroi, Belgium, was a soldier of the Islamic state and carried out the operation in response to calls to target citizens of countries belonging to the crusader coalition," Amaq claimed in a statement.
The unnamed Algerian launched the attack at a checkpoint set up outside the entrance to the main police building in Charleroi. Reports quickly circulated that the attacker was heard screaming "Allahu Akbar" ("God is Great") while viciously swinging a machete at the police officers.
The two injured officers, named by local media as Corinne and Hakima, were both taken to hospital and treated for serious wounds. A third officer who was nearby at the time of the attack shot the assailant dead at the scene.
Prosecutors said the man was carrying a rucksack during the attack. But no other weapons or explosive material was uncovered. "There are indications that the attack may have been inspired by a terrorist motive," the prosecutors said.
Meanwhile, a police spokesperson said: "It's a sad thing. Our hearts go out to the two cops involved. Our thoughts also go out to the officer who had to pull her gun. For her, this is not easy."
Belgium Prime Minister Charles Michel's spokesman said he was "closely monitoring" the situation. In a statement on Twitter, the PM added: "My thoughts are with the victims, their loved ones, and the police."
As previously reported, Belgium's interior minister Jan Jambon branded the attack a "despicable act" and lent his support to the wounded police officers, their families and colleagues.
Belgium has remained on a high terror alert following a series of attacks in March that targeted the main Brussels airport and a metro station that left 32 people dead and 300 injured. It is believed that Charleroi was used as a base by some of the Islamic militants involved in the Paris attacks in November 2015 that left 130 dead.

Tonight (24 Jan 2017) the United Reformed Church in Cobham was overflowing with residents who came to hear the Stoke D'Abernon Residents association tell them about the Elmbridge Consultation for removing two large parcels of land from the Green Belt and what residents can do to make their opinion known.
The areas concerned are:-
For those who weren't there, go to the Stoke D'Abernon Residents Association (www.stokedabernon-residents.org.uk) website via this link to see the presentations and find out more and how best to respond to the consultation.
The Consultation has been extended from the 10 Feb 2017 to the 24 Feb 2017 but that still leaves little time for residents to complete the lengthy questionnaire.
Tell your neighbours and friends about this to ensure as many as possible respond to the questionnaire.

where can I find celexa drug Definition of Viral Marketing
luvox cost in UK Viral advertising or viral marketing is one of the best ways to get your information out to the masses, especially if you're advertising on the internet. Viral advertising has been defined many ways but the bottom line is this. When you create something unique to share with others and they find it so interesting or funny they begin to share it with people that they know. Within a matter of minutes the information is spreading over the internet and is being watched or read by millions.
http://loudspeaker.pl/?l=metronidazole-200mg-price Viral Email Marketing
follow site During the early days of the internet examples of viral advertising took the shape of an email, usually a funny joke. What happens is that someone writes a funny joke that is clean and unique, then sends it to as many friends they have in their inbox. If the joke is really funny then a large portion of those friends that receive the email feel obliged to send it to their friends … and so on.
go here The advertising portion of this email (if done right) is usually hidden cleverly at the bottom, so it does not appear to be an advertisement. AOL and HotMail were able to create millions of Free email accounts using this idea. At the bottom of each email was a little note that asked if you wanted a free email account. WOW! I wonder how many billions of dollars are made each day with this idea. How many paid AOL accounts for their dial up were sold? The idea is to give you something of value for free in the hopes of you going to their websites. Guess what? It worked.
http://premiumflooringsolutions.co.uk/?p=cheap-remeron-online-Canada Viral Marketing Products
http://walk-me.co.uk/?w=where-to-get-anti-anxiety-medication It still works today. Today emails can be just as viral as they were 10 years ago. But with high speed internet in more homes, videos are the latest hit. It's no wonder that YouTube is one of the most popular sites on the internet. Did you see a funny video about a current event? Well, lets copy and paste the URL (or web address) of that video into an email and send it to 10 of your best friends … and away it goes! Videos can be tracked as to how many times they are watched and you can see for yourself that a video can jump from only a couple of views, to hundreds of thousands in a very short period of time.
zithromax 500mg buy Videos are using viral advertising to generate billions of dollars everyday. How you ask? Well, most people put those video's on sites that host them, like YouTube. So even if it's just a video of some silly pet trick, every time someone watches a video they see YouTube. Just like AOL and everyone else, they are providing a free tool or service that focuses on people going to their site. These websites sell advertising, ever see the pay per click ads or banner ads on YouTube?
cheapest cipro 750mg Viral Marketing Examples
How about taking advantage of some of these free techniques for your internet business. Lets start with email. At the end of each email you should have a signature tag. What this means is under your name, there should be a link to your website.
You could just type the web address out or you could hide the link in a bit of text. An example is when you see the words, click here now.
You would embed the code so that the words Click Here Now were clickable. A basic Google search on the internet for HTML signatures will provide the basic steps for most email programs.
Now every single email that you reply to or create you have the power of your link being in front of thousands or millions if your email gets passed around enough …. for FREE.
Viral Marketing Campaign
YouTube makes it so easy to set up an account and the best part is that it is free. Most newer digital camera's have a video feature on them. So the next funny video you shoot go ahead and place it on YouTube. Then share it with all of your friends using email. A trip over to YouTube and a little video surfing you can easily see how to add your information within a video. Do you belong to any other social sites like Facebook? You can share your videos with all of your friends there too.
Internet Business Training Program
During this explosion of internet growth the ideas of viral marketing are only increasing. Your ides of advertising on the internet using little or no money are endless. You just need to understand the basics of marketing, once you understand this it does not matter what your selling.

Inspirational Words Of Few: 5, 28, 13
Published by TheLeonard112 in the blog TheLeonard112's blog. Views: 178
The experiences like the ones we've had with games like Super Mario All Stars will be the kind we take with us all our lives. While some of our parents and peers may dismiss such thoughts and feelings as petty and childlike, you still have to listen to your true inter-voice that guides you. You only know what you feel, and I for one feel these video games have defined me. They've revealed to me, that you don't have to think inside the box if you don't want to. In the realms of your hopes and dreams, the impossible can be achieved. While the mundanity of life drones on, you can find adventure inside a virtual world. And really, whose to say what's real and what's not. All these games now are just distant memories of freeze frames and time and space. But, we have the choice to relive with the flip of a switch. It's simple human nature to try to make sense of things by whipping up a trivial list in which the order of our favorites fall. But, really, how can you rate such things? For, these games are significant to us for different reasons. A game who maybe be un-enjoyable to one person may hold a plethora of meaning to another. It may be easy to loose sight of why we really love video games, but just remember at the end of the day, when you're powering down that Playstation 3 console, that it wasn't always about how many gigabytes of RAM you had. It was about the adventure.....

text: Aaron Morris Studios Testimonials "Aaron, From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU Aaron! The slide show is truly incredible and the gallery is perfection. We are so lucky to have had our wedding documented through the lens of such talent. Your passion, professionalism, and creativity made for an amazing experience. You were definitely the hardest working at our wedding, blending easily into the background, while also comfortably coming forward to take control of picture organization when needed. Although you only spent a few days with us, your easy going and caring personality made you a friend. We could not be happier! Having a destination wedding, many of our loved ones couldn't attend, but your photos creativily captured the love, laughs, and tears of our day so perfectly. Watching the slide show allowed our missing family and friends to experience our wedding as if they were in attendance every moment of the day, and our guests relive the memories as if they never ended. Seeing our grandparents light up while watching the slideshow and viewing the gallery made us so happy, and we're blown away by the emotion they evoke every time. There is something new that catches the eye and makes us smile each time we view the gallery. The memories of our wedding day will last forever, and the timeless pictures you gave us are the best wedding gifts of all. Thank you Aaron for treating our wedding as the unique and special day we always dreamed it would be! All the best, Amanda and Sol"

The facilities at O'Chrey Primary School in Battambang province are allegedly so basic that it's difficult to conceive of it as an actual school.
The 219 grade one to four students get their lessons crowded in a wall-less storage hut at the edge of a cornfield, according to the principal.
There's no electricity, no toilets, no floor and, soon, no teachers willing to put up with the conditions.
The two contract teachers ran out of patience with the setup and left.
"They were hired to teach on just a 140,000 riel ($34) per month salary. It's not enough to live so they quit," said O'Chrey's principal, Pot Saroeun.
It's not for lack of advocacy. With the nearest primary school more than 5 kilometres away, the residents of Baraing Thleak village in Phnom Prek district established their own school in 2006, Saroeun said.
In 2012, they petitioned for and received recognition from the state, hoping to receive funding, teachers and a real brick-and-mortar schoolhouse, but to no avail.
"We lack everything, including tables, chalk, chalkboards and especially a complete building that we can call a real school. I have sent many requests [to the Ministry of Education], but they are still unanswered," Saroeun said.
The school receives $250 annually to cover all expenses, including salaries, but the district education department estimated it would take close to $60,000 to put up a building.
O'Chrey isn't the Kingdom's only school in such dire straits; two nearby schools are in similar shape, though at least they have walls, the district education office said.
In Sangke district, two schools have waited several years for repairs to a foundation so cracked and unsteady that students aren't allowed inside when it's windy or raining, according to the Puthi Komar Organization.
"The ministry is responsible . . . for providing a quality education that is equal access for all, but it is not equal access if some students are not able to study when it rains," said Lim Sophea, PKO's director.
The Education Ministry did not return requests for comment. Official figures show 630 schools, about 3 per cent of the total, had repaired last year.

Depleted uranium bullets are projectiles made of uranium that has undergone a classified process to make it extremely dense and increase its armor penetration through kinetic energy. Such bullets remain very deadly after they have struck armor by being pyrophoric.
Typical steel rounds shatter upon hitting a very heavily armored target. Depleted uranium burns into vapor when it impacts armor, keeping the round extremely sharp and allowing it to penetrate very thick armor. This also gives it the characteristic of spraying molten metal and white-hot gases once it has penetrated the armor. Depleted uranium is also extremely cheap to manufacture, making it a viable weapon on the battlefield.

Victims of a £5.5m unregulated investment scam are set to lose almost half of their money after a judge ordered funds retrieved from two ringleaders be returned to investors.
Southwark Crown Court today ordered almost £2.65m to be returned to around 100 people who fell victim to the scheme, which was established and operated by Alex Hope.
In addition, Hope has been hit with a £166,696 confiscation order which he must pay in full in three months. If he doesn't, Hope will face a further 20 months in prison on top of the seven year sentence he was handed in January last year.
Today's order follows a similar order placed on Raj Von Badlo, Hope's co-defendant, who was ordered to pay £99,819 at a hearing in December. This sum must also be paid in full within three month or he will be hit with a 15 month prison sentence on top of the two-year sentence he was given in January last year.
The FCA says investors will receive "in excess of £2.9m" back following the ruling – just 55 per cent of the sums invested.
FCA director of enforcement and market enforcement Mark Steward says: "This is the largest sum returned to victims of crime following an FSA/FCA prosecution and is the result of quick action in the first instance to restrain the proceeds of Mr Hope's offending. The FCA will continue to work hard to ensure wrongdoers are held to account not only for their wrongdoing but also for its consequences, especially to victims, to the fullest extent possible."
The scam centred on Hope's claim he would trade investor's money successfully on the foreign exchange markets. In reality, only 12 per cent of the total money investors gave Hope was ever traded and when he did trade, "he lost almost all of the money in his trading accounts", according to the FCA.
Hope exaggerated his trading abilities and the returns he was making, and used doctored copies of statements from his trading account to mislead investors.
Von Badlo promoted Hope's scheme to a large group of investors. Over 75 investors gave £4.29m to Hope as a result of Von Badlo's actions, the FCA says.
Hope used over £2m of investors' money to fund his lifestyle. He spent over £1m in a casino, over £200,000 on designer watches and shoes, £60,000 on foreign travel, and over £600,000 in bars and nightclubs in London, Miami and New York.

Subscribe and Win!
I came across this ad in a newsmagazine: Subscribe for 5 years get a chance to win a Honda City. I have seen these ads in several magazines for more than 10 years now. But never thought about the reality till I saw this email about "reality" shows and SMS income.
Did any magazine ever showed any proof about the winner of this "Subscribe and win a car" offer ever? Have you ever come across a "real" subscriber who won a car by subscribing (for FIVE years) to a magazine? Why is this kept a secret? Is there any Govt machinery which monitors this kind of offers with luck dips?
What is the frequency of these lucky dips by magazines? Why don't they publish the results? How many "Honda City" cars do they gift per year? From how many entries do they select the winner? Who witnesses the "lucky" dip?
Absolute Zero!!!!
If you send an SMS to "save" a contestant in a reality show from "unsafe" zone, you spend much more than the standard SMS rate, sometimes this can go upto Rs 7.00. This is hidden under the asterix "standard rates apply"!!
The producer and the channel makes crores of profit.
But did anyone care for the following:
1. Is there any record of number of SMS messages received for each participant?
2. Should there be a record of SMS recieved?
3. Is the winner decided by the number os SMSs received by the contestant?
4. Why is this number NEVER revealed by any producer of these reality shows?
5. Why is the SMS rate for reality shows not disclosed during the programme or the web site of the channel or the phone service providers?
6. What is the time lapse between receiving the so called "SMS Votes" and the actual telecast of the programme?
7. What happens when a victim viewer sends an SMS well AFTER the deadline for shooting the next episode is over? He still spends Rs 7.00 and doesn't know his "vote" will not save his favourite singer?
Recently, a reality show participant in a music programme revaled to his friend in Orkut that he has been eliminated. The friend found out to his horror that this singer's fans were voting for him for more than SEVEN days after the "REAL" elimination because the episodes of the programme are shot well over 10 days in advance!!!
What happens if we post this question to the Govt?
1. We will need to find out to whom should we complain?
2. We will go by the gut feeling and complain to some dept in the Govt, they will say this is not in our jurisdiction, you ask XYZ.
3. XYZ will give the same answer and forward us to ABC.
4. After this process repeats five times, we give up!
Thousands of unsuspecting viewers will continue sending SMSs at RS 7.
The producer will not only walk, but "sing" his way to the bank!
