Be clever with advertising, making sure that you have a exclusive angle that makes your company stand out. A little business like my family's enterprise needed close scrutiny on finances on a week-to-week basis but a little company in an additional marketplace could create large revenues and not need to have the identical type of accounting. As you stick to this method you will not only develop more rapidly than any other way, but you will have developed a enterprise that is rock solid. It is a fantastic business to get a good high and some Rah Rah in your life.

Boots, always a discussion in trade-offs and the possibility you might have a Friday-afternoon Boot.
More anecdotes:
I used a second-hand pair of Koflachs (already pretty used when I bought them) and made around 1985 and the uppers finally cracked in 2006 doing the dog route on Shasta on a relatively warm day. That's about a 20-year lifespan for this particular pair of plastics. Pretty good I say. The lower portions of the boots were beat to shit, and the ankle section was the last section I though would fail.
atavist wrote: The plastic uppers basically disintegrated..
Perhaps it's the ankle section that's more susceptible to failure due the flexing nature of the plastic? In any case, as a result of the above experience, I always store my boots (both plastic and leather) away from sunlight and well ventilated when not in use.
asmrz wrote:I find the issue (leather vs plastic) quite personal...
Today, full grain leather boots are really thing of the past.
There is absolutely no need to use full grain leather boots any more.
For the most part I agree with you, however I still think your terrain dictates what boot you bring. I still use La Sportiva Makalus because I seem to be going up and down a lot of dog-route talus in the North and High Sierra these days. IMO, the 3m upper and one piece leather on the side resists the The Thousand Talus Wars that would wear out the synthetic materials a lot quicker (think shearing resistance). Often times too, the synthetic material on many boots is not one-piece on the sides, so seam presence seems more vulnerable to failure. Yes, I do pay the price for weight, but having a boot fail on a climb, really sucks. Lighter vs. Durability: the ongoing trade off.
Also, FWIW, my first pair of Makalus fell apart inside the mid-sole because the integrity of the glue/adhesive was gone after 15+ years. In the discussion about boot life, manufacturer adhesive lifespan seems to be rarely discussed (except in the context of drying your boots too close to flame/hot temperatures).
Results may vary.. Ah, the variables..

The AMO has been in decline since peaking in late 2003-2005.
Normally the warm and cold phases of the AMO each last roughly three decades. It appeared the last warm phase tried to get going in 1988 but Pinatubo put a damper on the warming delaying it till 1995. If 1988 is the real starting point, then it should last until 2018.
But a quiet sun amplified the decline near the turn of the prior century (late 1800s) and again after quiet cycle 20 in the 1960s to mid 1970s. Could this super quiet sun (see last week's post) be causing a premature drop in AMO or is it just a normal variability.
Last may, we posted a story on the importance of the AMO to hurricanes, the NAO and US and arctic temperatures.
A warm AMO leads to above normal hurricane activity in the Atlantic, and except dring El Nino summers, more major hurricanes and more landfalls.
The AMO leads to warmer temperatures not only in the Atlantic but most continental areas in the Northern Hemisphere.
We noted in the prior story that the PDO favors more El Ninos and more global warmth. A positive PDO and positive AM) produce the most warmth and the negative AMO and negative PDO, cooling.
Given that the sun also correlates with temperatures, we see a very good matching of annual solar, AMO+PDO with U.S. temperatures.
SUMMARYThe AMO has dipped into negative territory. The PDO has been strongly negative the last few years..The combination of the two correlate well with U.S.temperatures. A solar temperature relationship also exists. The three together suggests cooling ahead. A recent paper in Discovery supports this trend towards cooling which the authors suggest could last 30 years.
As for the hurricane season, if AMO were stay negative, it would counter the enhancement from antecedent La Nina conditions. I would guess the AMO will return slightly positive and the season will have again normal to above normal activity 12-14 named storms, 7 hurricanes and 2 major systems. With the cold PDO, east coast and Gulf Coast are both vulnerable to landfall. Read this relationship of oceans with hurricanes story here. More later.

Seabee Museum & Memorial Park Seabee Museum & Memorial Park
Here's a sample of our volunteer opportunities:VIEW AS
Mission Statement
The Seabee Museum and Park will recreate and celebrate the Seabee story at the "Original Home of the Seabees."
The Museum will preserve the rich history of achievement, both military and civic, for the "Fighting Builders" and their impact worldwide. It will also house a collection of vintage Quonset Huts, designed in Rhode Island in 1943 to support the war effort.
The Museum will promote the "CAN DO" philosophy as a universally relevant behavior for all who endeavor to succeed in life.
The Seabee Museum and Memorial Park is a non-profit 501(c) (3) corporation originally formed by retired US Navy Seabees.
It's important to note that this is a Seabee Museum, built by Seabees, run by Seabees, for Seabees and their families, as well as for the public. The majority of physical support comes from volunteer former Seabees, the Seabee Reserves, and the wives, sons, and friends of Seabees in Rhode Island.
From its founding, the Seabee Museum and Memorial Park has stood on its own, collecting grants from federal, public, and private sectors. The majority of funding received to date has been from the MCB-6 Association, other Seabees, the Rhode Island State Preservation and Historical Society, the Federal HUD Office, and a Federal Grant from the Department of Defense (allowing Seabee Reserves to perform a full summer training program here). While this may sound significant, it's only a small percentage of the bricks and mortar required to complete this tribute to the "Original Home of the Seabees." The original cost of this project was $5 million.

Prime Minister and Barisan Nasional chairman Datuk Seri Najib Razak (second left) attend a closed-door meeting during his working visit to Parti Gerakan at Menara PGRM, Kuala Lumpur, January 14, 2018. Also present was Gerakan President Datuk Seri Mah Siew Keong (third left). — Bernama picKUALA LUMPUR, Jan 14 — Gerakan today submitted their list of potential candidates for the 14th General Election (GE14) to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak ,who is also Barisan Nasional (BN) Chairman. The list features more than 60 per cent of new faces.
Gerakan president Datuk Seri Mah Siew Keong said the candidates comprise of all races who had been working in the previous 45 seats contested by the party in the last general election.
Asked whether the party would retain all the seats contested previously, Mah said it was up to the BN chairman to decide, but the party was confident that it could do better in all those seats.
"We have given the list to the prime minister, there is no final decision yet," he told a press conference after a closed-door meeting with the prime minister at Gerakan's headquarters here today.
Elaborating on Gerakan's election preparations, Mah said the party, however, expected that there would be changes in four to five of the seats it contested previously.
"It is actually for a win-win situation. For example if MCA is confident of doing better than us in some of our seats. So we can switchj seats. But not necessarily with MCA, it can be with any of the component parties (in the Barisan Nasional coalition)," he said, that he could not divulge details as it was still under discussion.
On Penang, Mah said that he was confident that the party could do much better given numerous issues arising under the DAP-led government, such as the Undersea Tunnel project.
"We are convinced that Penang people will elect a few Gerakan representatives for check and balance in the State Assembly .
"Plus, in Penang, during the last election, DAP won all the seats they contested, they never lost so they are a bit arrogant now, so we are confident we will do much better," he said.
On the meeting with Najib today, Mah said the short meeting went very well whereby the prime minister had advised the Gerakan leadership to always be on standby mode and make all out preparations for the election.

The bunny looks so contented!
My husband has been asking me and keeps reminding me to make a cell phone case for him. He thinks it is easy to make one as I only have to use the machine to sew the fabric together, and I should make things for him first instead of making for others.
I told him as an "artist" myself, I hate repeating the same thing. I have already made a cell phone case for myself and my sister, therefore, I do not want to work on cell phone case...Even so, since he made his request, I have been thinking the design of the case. As I'm quite into making hexagons these days, I resolved to make a cell phone case with some hexagons on it. I think it turns out quite nice.
By the way, I have some spare Christmas charms. If you are looking for similar charms, you can check them out at my etsy shop. They are great for any Christmas projects. You may consider sewing them on your fabric projects, which I think it will definitely make your project looks UNIQUE and cute!

Do you like sketches? If so, I thought I'd share the sketches that I drew up for the previous 6 Mitten Weather cards. You can use them to create Christmas cards or get creative and put your own spin on the sketches.
Another thing I have to share with you today is the digital file from my Noel King Card published in the Nov/Dec issue of Paper Crafts magazine. this card can be found on page 47. I've had a few requests on how to do this so I'll share the basics on how I created it. For those of you who don't want to bother with creating it yourself, you're welcome to download the version below for printing off yourself.
To create this text art you'll need to use Photoshop, Photoshop Elements or another graphics program. I created mine in PSE and here are the basic steps…
- create a new 4×4 inch blank file at 300 dpi
- go to view and then select grid to help you layout the project
- creating a separate text layer for each main letter spell out N, O, E, L and arrange them into a square shape. add color as desired
- Simplify or rasterize layers so that you can widen letters to form a square
- add smaller type layers for the black sentiment additions
- save and print as desired
Happy creating!

Boyz manager Simpson weighs in on Bolt's pursuit of football dream
MONTEGO BAY, St James — Roy Simpson, the long-time manager of the Jamaica national senior men's team, the Reggae Boyz, has described Usain Bolt's desire to play professional football at the highest level in Europe or in the English Premier League as "challenging".
Bolt, who will be 32 years old when the 2018-19 season starts and who retired from track and field at last August's IAAF World Championships in London, has reignited his desire to play professional football and has set his sights on running out for his favourite club Manchester United, the many-time English and European champions.
There are reports that Bolt has managed to secure a trial with German Bundesliga team Borrusia Dortmund in March, a club with which he and German sporting good giant Puma shares sponsorship.
Bolt has never played organised football at any level, but that has never stopped him from talking up his abilities and chances of doing what many think is the impossible. Simpson said he wouldn't want to second-guess the sprint phenomenon, saying after all, that "he is Bolt and we wouldn't want to say what he can and cannot do".
Simpson agreed that starting at a lower level could help the multiple World Championships and Olympic Games winner and world record holder in the 100m and 200m, assimilate into the game, but said he could be a tactical weapon for a coach.
"He has speed and he has power," Simpson pointed out. "What if a coach decides to put him on the wing and instructs the midfielders to pass the ball to him?"
Simpson added that for this to work, Bolt would need to have a high level of technical competency. "His first touch would have to be good enough to play at the speed of the game at that level," Simpson reasoned.
The Boyz manager has never seen Bolt play in person, but says he has seen tapes of the athlete in charity games and admits he is not totally impaired. "Bolt is a phenomenal athlete", Simpson said.
Even without "exposure to the game" at the lower level, Simpson thinks Bolt's impact at any club could be felt off the field and does not blame him for using his influence to get trials with big clubs.
"In terms of marketability, Bolt would be an impact at any club as he would drive up the sales of merchandise and people will come to see him play," Simpson noted.
Bolt has said in the past that he would compare himself with former Manchester United and England Captain Wayne Rooney, the record goalscorer for both teams. In response to this, Simpsonsaid: "He (Bolt) is as good as he thinks he is."

Setup Wizard: Collection Server page
Applies To: Forefront Client Security
Use this wizard page to specify details about the collection server. This page will appear when you install the collection server and when you install other components that need to know the location of the collection server. Some controls display only when you install the collection server.
It is highly recommended that you read the Client Security Deployment Guide. The Deployment Guide covers the system requirements, prerequisite software, and the order of installation, all of which are critical for successfully installing Client Security.
Collection server (computer name)
Specifies the computer name of the collection server. If you are installing the collection server on the current computer, the default value should be correct.
If you are installing other Client Security components and not installing the collection server on the current computer, then the default value will be incorrect. Make sure to update this value before continuing.
In the standard topologies, the collection server and database are installed on the same computer.
For more information about the collection server, see "Server components" in the Client Security Planning and Architecture Guide.
Management group name
Specifies the name of the management group for this deployment of Client Security. If you are deploying multiple instances of Client Security (for example, to support more than 10,000 client computers), you can distinguish between the instances by using different management groups.
The default management group name is ForefrontClientSecurity.
Make sure to write down the management group name, as you will need to provide it again when configuring Client Security and when deploying Client Security to the client computers.
This control appears only when you install the collection server.
DAS account
Specifies the DAS account the collection server uses to access the collection database. The DAS account must be a domain user account.
Client Security automatically grants the DAS account the appropriate permissions as part of set up.
This control appears only when you install the collection server.
For more information about service accounts, including the DAS account, see "Service and installation accounts" in the Client Security Planning and Architecture Guide.
Client Security uses Microsoft Operations Manager (MOM) 2005 to collect and report about malware and vulnerabilities on the client computers. To learn about the MOM components in Client Security, see "Client Security and Microsoft Operations Manager" in the Client Security Planning and Architecture Guide.

Pinoys love their noodles. There's the usual Chinese-inspired pancit and its local variants. There's the "Italian" spaghetti and its sweet PInoy counterpart. Of course, Pinoys of all ages love their bowl of piping hot noodle soup, the mami. Mami is a simple and filling dish of noodles served in broth, usually chicken or beef, with a generous sprinkling of spring onions. One can have it solo or served up with a dumpling or siopao. Other variants may include some slices of boiled egg and other meats. Some might serve it up with seafood. Mami is best enjoyed during rainy days or after an all-night drinking session. Personally, I can have this dish as a sub for my regular meal of rice and viand.
Noodle houses are common eating establishments in Metro Manila. There are the fast food type of places like Chow King, Hen Lin, Dimsum and Dumplings. Relatively newer places include Hap Chan, Luk Yuen, and David's Tea House. There are also those little carinderias and evening street food carts that serve up the dish for those who want it after a long day. There are also the older Chinese places in Manila. One thing is certain; regardless of the scale of operations, people from different walks of life will have their own favorite place to eat noodles.
If you ask previous (older) generations of Metro Manila residents to name the noodle place they enjoyed the most during their younger years, they'll probably mention and rave about the old Ma Mon Luk. I think the old Ma Mon Luk is still there in Quezon City and it still probably has its old fans. However, I'm sure that these old Ma Mon Luk holdovers might give their beloved restaurant a second thought once they give Charlie Wanton Special a try. I remember my dad taking me to a branch of this restaurant. I found their restaurant on Haig St. in Mandaluyong City a few years back. Since then I've made it a point to eat there whenever any of my appointments take me near the place.
What to order:
The Special Size Beef Wanton Mami. The noodles are cooked just right, not malabsak or mushy. The serving comes with an extra small bowl of soup. Bawal mabitin sa sabaw ang mahilig sa mami.
Possible Pairing:
Siomai. The only size there is BIG.
Siopao. Go for the Special Bola Bola. It's big enough to be shared by two people.
What else to order:
The pancit and other Cantonese-inspired dishes appear as good bets for a possible pig-out session.
Preparation needed:
Sweat out whatever meal you had before trying to order what I listed above. That set is guaranteed to fill up a normal-sized Pinoy gut. That's unless that Pinoy happens to be an eating contest champion with a strong obsessive craving for food.
P 200 should be more than enough to satisfy one hungry individual. Again, that's unless that hungry individual happens to be an eating contest champion with a strong obsessive craving for food.

About 350,000 Woven Storage Trunks by Target have been recalled. The lid of the trunk can drop suddenly when released, posing a strangulation hazard to small children opening or reaching into the trunks.
CPSC has received two reports of injuries that occurred when the storage trunks' lids suddenly closed on children, including one report of an 18-month-old girl who reportedly suffered brain damage when the trunk's lid came down on the back of her neck and pinned her throat against the rim of the trunk.
The recall involves 14 different models of the storage trunks made of woven rattan, abaca or banana leaf with standard hinges. They measure more than 1.1 feet in length, width and depth and are brown or natural color.
The recalled trunks were sold exclusively at Target stores nationwide and on the Web at www.target.com from February 2009 through April 2010 for between $50 and $130.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled storage trunks and return them to any Target store for a full refund or replacement product.
For additional information, contact Target at (800) 440-0680 between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m. CT Monday through Friday, or visit the firm's website at www.target.com.

Charleston Golf Guide
With over 20 championship courses, it's no secret the Charleston area offers plenty of great golf. But, did you know that for the second consecutive year Charleston was named "Top City in the U.S." by Conde Nast Traveler in its annual Readers' Choice Awards? The Readers' Choice Awards have been considered the gold standard in the travel industry for more than two decades. What this means for you is that a golf vacation in Charleston is as enjoyable off the course as on it!
The Charleston area was extremely honored to host the 2012 PGA Championship at The Ocean Course at Kiawah Island Golf Resort. Northern Ireland's Rory McIlroy shot a blistering final round to record his 2nd major championship victory. The Ocean Course is no stranger to big time golf, having hosted the 2007 Senior PGA Championship and the infamous "War by the Shore", the 1991 Ryder Cup. Next August Charleston welcomes the USGA Women's Amateur Championship, which is being held at the Country Club of Charleston.
Getting to Charleston has never been easier! Southwest Airlines offers non-stop flights to Charleston from Chicago, Nashville, Houston and Baltimore, with easy connections through dozens of other cities.

Last month, two female divers from Huntington Ingalls Industries' (NYSE:HII) Undersea Solutions Group (USG) entered the history books as they became the first women ever to crew and drive a dual-mode underwater vehicle.
Andrea Raff, a mechanical engineer, and Chloe Mallet, an ocean engineer, went aboard the USG's Proteus and crewed and operated it. It is a submersible that is able to operate as a manned swimmer delivery vehicle (SDV) as well as an unmanned undersea vehicle (UUV).
Both Raff and Mallet have been certified as rescue divers. The two have gone through extensive training operations with Proteus and provide their assistance for its proper maintenance. In order to be fully prepared to operate the vehicle, they trained in the test tank of the company and supported pre- and post- dives with some of USG's pilots that have more experience in the field.
Photo: Joe Colamaria/HII
Raff and Mallet took Proteus out individually and served as its co-pilots in the Saint Andrews Bay of Florida with Ross Lindman, who is USG's Vice President, as the pilot.
"We were quite excited to get this opportunity. We provide our assistance for the various maintenance procedures on the boat and learn a lot of things in the process but this instance marked the first time that we were in the water. We are going to continue to train as co-pilots and then alongside an experienced diver pilot it ourselves," commented Mallet.
Out of the seven-person dive team appointed by USG to the Proteus, Raff and Mallet are the only two women. When the vehicle is used in its manned mode, it gets flooded with water and is able to submerge to a depth level of 150 feet.
"I actually felt ready but it was different than what I thought it'd be. It is pitch black when you go inside and the computer screen along with the buttons is the only thing you can see. We scheduled testing operations with customers so it is going to be quite exciting to observe the manner in which it is going to operate in the future," said Raff.
The Proteus has weight of 8,240 pounds and its design enables it to operate as a manned SDV or as an UUV. Teams can use it to integrate and test payloads, for transportation purposes and equipment installation on the sea floor, undersea infrastructure inspections and for transporting a combat swimmers team and various cargoes.
USG is focused on developing and constructing specialized manned and unmanned undersea vehicles that are to serve the purposes of military customers all over the world. The Columbia Group's Engineering Solutions Division, USG has manufactured or converted specialized vehicles for a large array of purposes such as providing support to submersibles and submarines, mine warfare system testing, special warfare, potential torpedo countermeasures and many more. Originally established back in 1972, the division reports to the Newport News Shipbuilding division which is part of HHI and operates in Florida's Panama City Beach.

Ah, Christmas at home in the 12th century with Henry II and family. Dinner, a little tree-trimming... and threats of fratricide, patricide and war, fueled by marital malice: What could be cozier? ("What shall we hang, the holly or each other?" asks Henry).
James Goldman's fierce and funny play of high stakes family dysfunction doesn't entirely catch fire at the Colony Theatre in Burbank, but it's quite an enjoyable outing nonetheless.
King Henry (Ian Buchanan), while still hale, is getting on in years and his three sons have an avid interest in who's next in line. Brilliant and devious schemer Geoffrey (Paul Turbiak) comes in a distant third; Henry's choice is sly, callow, pimply-faced John (Doug Plaut), dubbed a "walking pustule" by humorless and hypermasculine eldest brother Richard Lionheart (Brendan Ford).
Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine (Mariette Hartley), imprisoned by her husband for plotting against him and given temporary freedom for the holiday, wants Richard named successor. Not out of any excess of maternal feeling — she has little to none — but to best Henry in another of their high stakes games of one-upmanship.

This classic Eastern Orthodox Christian text on repentance and confession is appearing for the first time in English. The call to repentance and confession of sins has been at the heart of the Christian Gospel since the preaching of Saint John the Forerunner and Christ Himself (Mat. 3:2, 4:17). It is the foundation of apostolic preaching (Mark 6:12) and the hallmark of Orthodox Christianity. And yet, in our day, when sin is regularly glorified as glamorous and repentance ridiculed as a sign of weakness, the Mystery of Confession is often misunderstood and neglected. When, however, one encounters the illumined instructions found in Saint Nikodemos the Hagiorite's Manual of Confession, he feels himself both freed from the delusions of this age and his own blindness to sin. Saint Nikodemos, an inheritor of the Apostolic Tradition and exponent of the Patristic mind, a Church Father who straddled the divide between antiquity and modernity, and an ascetic theologian who possessed an encyclopedic knowledge of Holy Scripture and the writings of the Holy Fathers, is an exceptionally qualified guide for all who would repent and enter into the Kingdom of Heaven (Mat. 3:2). In edition to St. Nikodemos' edifying instruction to the Spiritual Father, the Manual of Confession also offers a meticulous interpretation of the Canons of St. John the Faster, an enlightening counsel for the penitent on how to confess, and a soul-profiting homily on repentance, making it essential reading for all who desire to be cured of the passions and find consolation from their afflictions. 480 pages, richly illustrated

Issues Surrounding the Administration of a Credit Course for Medical Students: Survey of US Academic Health Sciences Librarians*
Miller, Jolene Michelle, Journal of the Medical Library Association
Objectives: For librarians developing a credit course for medical students, the process often involves trial and error. This project identified issues surrounding the administration of a credit course, so that librarians nationally can rely more upon shared knowledge of common practices and less upon trial and error.
Methods: A questionnaire was sent to the education services librarian at each medical school listed in the 2000 AAMC Data Book. A second questionnaire was sent to those librarians who did not return the first one.
Results: Of the 125 librarians surveyed, 82 returned the questionnaire. Of those 82, only 11 offered a credit course for medical students, though 19 more were in the process of developing one. Data were gathered on the following aspects of course administration: credit course offerings, course listing, information learned to administer the course, costs associated with the course, relationships with other departments on campus, preparation for teaching and grading, and evaluation of the course.
Conclusions: Because of small number of respondents offering a credit course and institutional variations, making generalizations about issues surrounding the administration of a credit course is difficult. The article closes with a list of recommendations for librarians planning to develop a course.
The emphasis on the need for medical professionals to maintain professional competence through lifelong learning has provided opportunities for health sciences librarians to work with students and faculty in new ways. While information management education (IME) has long been an important component of information services in academic health sciences libraries, its role has been highlighted by institutional information management exit objectives and suggested by a report from the Association of American Medical Colleges' (AAMC's) Medical School Objectives Project [1]. Existing IME programs include skills such as literature searching, cited reference searching, use of presentation and bibliographic management software, and use of evidence-based practice; one group of the AAMC's objectives, "Role of Life-Long Learner," fits closely with these existing programs. For example, one objective includes demonstrating knowledge of information sources such as MEDLINE, reference sources, textbooks, and medical Internet sites to support lifelong learning. Another addressed online search techniques such as using controlled vocabulary and Boolean operators when searching online resources. Although it has been left up to each medical school to determine whether or not these objectives would be adopted and to what extent they were adopted, librarians have been able to use this document to their advantage, using relevant objectives when refining existing IME programs and when developing new ones.
Information management education for medical students takes a variety of forms, often depending upon the political climate of the institution. Traditional forms of IME take place in brief, often single, sessions as a part of orientation or a course such as medical decision making, problem-based learning, or evidencebased practice. It may also take place outside of existing courses, as with training sessions that are open to the campus. These types of sessions assume that students can quickly absorb knowledge about information sources and the skills needed to use these sources effectively, with little or no need for follow-up. These "one-shot" sessions, however, are not effective for all students. One way to improve IME and to cover more of the AAMC's informatics objectives in more depth is by offering a credit course, where students and librarians can meet over an extended period (such as a semester or block). The primary benefit offered by credit courses is the "time available for instruction. [They allow] time for a structured and comprehensive approach to learning. Students have time to develop search strategies, to explore alternative approaches, and to practice information-seeking behavior under controlled circumstances" [2]. …

Chances are that if you've ever seen a pair of blue jeans, you've seen a bartack. A bar tack stitch is basically a tight zigzag that is repeated back and forth over itself to reinforce a piece that is sewn together. It helps resist rips in the fabric and increase strength of the overall product. When made commercially, industrial machines usually have a bartack attachment or a machine designed specifically for bartacking is used. In the home, you can simply use a tight zigzag and run it back and forth several times to get the desired effect.
Any place on a garment that has stress points which would otherwise rip after a few uses would have a bartack stitch to reinforce those areas. You'll notice them on a pair of blue jeans around the pockets, belt loops, zipper fly and hips. They're also used heavily on military and emergency uniforms, protective equipment, bags, luggage, and sporting gear. With sporting equipment, bartacking is considered a safety measure and is part of the item's design. Buttonholes are another example of the bartack in use. Many buttonholes, particularly those made with home sewing machines, have one or two bartacks on one or both ends of the buttonhold for reinforcement. It also is a basic decorative stitch that can be used for embroidery purposes.
Whether you're using a bartack for reinforcement purposes, decorative items, or just wondered what that stitching was for on your clothes and gear, the bartack stitch is a flexible basic way of securing fabric in a functional way and giving items their unique stitched look.

Corsair Launches New PC Gaming Peripherals
Subject: General Tech | September 1, 2013 - 09:12 PM | Tim Verry
Tagged: corsair, raptor gaming, gaming keyboard, mm200, mm400, pax prime
In addition to new headsets, Corsair launched a new Raptor K30 gaming keyboard and two new mouse pads: the MM200 and MM400. The new peripherals will be available in September.
The Raptor K30 is a RED LED backlit gaming keyboard with rubber dome keys and anti-ghosting circuitry. The keyboard has six programmable macro keys, multimedia playback controls, and a full QWERTY with separate number pad layout. The K30 further has a Windows lock key to prevent accidental key presses which would take you out of a full screen game.
Corsair's Raptor K30 will be available in September for $59.99.
The Corsair MM200 and MM400 are two new mouse mats for enthusiasts running either optical or laser gaming mice. The MM200 is the larger of the two, at 930mm x 300mm (approximately 37" x 12"). It reportedly has a microtexture surface optimized to allow mice to easily glide across the mat. It has a non-slip rubber base to keep the mat in place.
The MM200 mouse mat has an MSRP of $34.99 and will be available in September.
The Corsair MM400 is a 310mm x 235mm (~12" x 9") mouse mat with a low friction polymer surface and rubber base. Corsair stated in a press release that the reflective surface has been tweaked to work well with gaming mice.
User will be able to purchase the MM400 in September for around $19.99 (MSRP).
PAX Prime attendees can check out the new gaming gear at the Corsair booth #1246 at the show in Seattle, WA.
Just curious what makes its cheaper than the Corsair Vengance K70?
Does this keyboard have Cherry MX switches?
It doesn't use Cherry MX switches, so its a good bit cheaper as a result :).
Ah!!! Well Darn. I got so excited!!
Thank you!

Watercolors are a great way to get into your designs together and see on paper first, if what you have imaged will be delivered in your final enameling design.
Get yourself a set of Winsor Newton Travel Watercolors, A block of watercolor paper that is Hot Pressed and a #3 Sable brush.
The travel kit of colors have 10 – 12 colors, all you need to start designing your enameled project. A block of watercolor paper is just that. The stack of paper's edges are glued together, because when it gets wet in normal conditions of painting with water the paper would warp , and it prevents that. As hot press is more likely to warp than cold pressed, but it is a smoother paper than cold pressed. Great for small painting of detail. And I find a #3 sable brush is a good size to get the job done.
I begin my enameling classes and my own jewels with design time in
watercolors. The paint can be used in layering very similar enameling, where I apply a layer of enamels and fire before applying another color, watercolors can be apply in one layer of color and let it dry before applying another.
One book that was useful to me is "Light up your Watercolors" by Linda Stevens Moyers. In her book she starts color with the medium color = value, then going to her warm colors = interest points, and then the cool colors this being her darks. We have to layer in a different order as our warm color would burn out if laid in too soon. So I apply them in the order of cool colors first -I start with my dark color, then medium color = value colors and last the warm color to produce the impact.
Happy Enameling!

I've been vaping for seven months, but have only recently been introduced to premium vendors through the Electronic Cigarette subreddit. Up until a few weeks ago, I bought all of my juice from sites like MyVaporStore.
Nicoticket has been a name that I've seen countless times. Users would praise both the customer service and the quality of the product, two things that I value the most when it comes to making online purchases. Clark, the proprietor of the site, did not disappoint on the customer service side.
I placed my order on a whim in the dead of night on a Sunday. The following morning, I was surprised to see that I had a private message from Clark himself. The contents of the message were absolutely delightful.
Not only did Clark personally assure me that he would be taking my order down to the post office the next day -- which he did -- but also thanked me profusely for placing an order with him. Interactions like these are incredibly rare in today's world of "one-click shopping," so I make it a point to show my appreciation for those who go the extra mile for their customers. As someone who has only dealt with an ordering process that can only be described as "sterile" up until now, Clark has made me a believer.
I cannot recommend Nicoticket enough.

The Nakoda (also known as Stoney or Îyârhe Nakoda) are an indigenous people in Western Canada and, originally, the United States.
They used to inhabit large parts of Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Montana,[1] but their reserves are now located in Alberta and in Saskatchewan, where they are scarcely differentiated from the Assiniboine. Through their language they are related to the Dakota and Lakota nations of the Great Plains and the Rocky Mountains, part of the large Sioux Nation.[2]
They refer to themselves in their own language as "Nakoda", meaning friend, ally. The name "Stoney" was given them by white explorers, because of their technique of using fire-heated rocks to boil broth in rawhide bowls. They are very closely related to the Assiniboine, who are also known as Stone Sioux (from the Ojibwe asinii-bwaan).
Alberta's Nakoda First Nation comprises three bands: Bearspaw, Chiniki and Wesley.[3]
The Stoney were "excluded" from Banff National Park between 1890 and 1920.[4] In 2010 they were officially "welcomed back".[5]
The Stoney are descendants of individual bands of Dakota, Lakota and Nakota, in particular of western groups of Assiniboine, from which they spun out as an independent group at about 1744. The Stoney were divided geographically and culturally into two tribal groups or divisions with different dialects, which in turn were further divided into several bands:[6] [7]
Wood Stoney (Chan Tonga Nakoda- 'Big Woods People', often called Swampy Ground Assiniboine, northern tribal group)
Mountain Stoney (Ye Xa Yabine Nakoda or Hebina - 'Rock Mountain People', often called Strong Wood Assiniboine, Thickwood Assiniboine, southern tribal group)
Members of the Nakoda nations of Paul and Alexis signed an adhesion to Treaty 6 in 1877.
In 1877, representatives of the Nakoda Nations of Bearspaw, Chiniki and Wesley met with representatives of the British Crown to discuss the terms of Treaty 7.[8] In exchange for use of traditional native lands, the Crown agreed to honor their right to self-government and an ancestral way of life. They were also promised reserve lands, 279 km² situated along the Bow River between the Kananaskis River and the Ghost River, which became the Big Horn, Stoney and Eden Valley reserves, shared between the Bearspaw, Chiniki and Wesley tribes.

When I was 17 I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, I didn't like the diagnosis so I chose a different shrink. Then I spent a few years travelling the world, writing a book, going back and forth from being on top of the world to not being able to get out of bed. I am now 26 and after many life-long mental, physical and emotional scars from my mania, which have added PTSD to my list of problems, I have finally begun the process of accepting my disease and that i will have to take medication every day in order to hold a job, repair my relationships, and maintain any healthy relationships or activities. My depressions were getting too long and too hard on my partner and my highs were getting too high and dangerous and also very hard on my partner, family, and general well being. Kaiser put me on 1.5mg of Ativan for 14 months and offered no therapy, just an addiction. When I finally decided to get better help I started weekly therapy and was put on 200mg of Lamictal a day and can take 2-4mg of Xanax as needed (for the PTSD, depressions, paranoia, flashbacks, etc), also I take Saphris at night to help with the sleep. The Saphris has been extremely helpful in allowing me to get a good nights rest, which allows me to function the next day. The slow ascension of the Lamictal allowed me to not feel the bad side effects as much as I built up to the full dose.
Yesterday Doc started me on Lithium 400mg. On top of the Lamictal 200mg, Xanax 2-4mg, and Saphris. I took it last night and I now feel a little... well, dumb. Literally. I am having problems connecting sentences in my head and my stomach hurts. I woke up extremely sluggish and have never been a coffee drinker... I am now. I am also a writer, and am terrified that my stories, the ones I write and the stories of my life will be duller, more boring, more "traditional," more of all the things I didn't want my life to be. But I don't want to put my family or myself through anymore than I already have, and I have decided on continuing the medications. I am terrified that I will lose "myself," not be as funny or creative as I once was, not be the life of the party ever again, never be able to feel like I was on top of the world again... the highs of mania are extremely, extremely, seductive.
I am also very considered about the stigma surrounding Lithium, not just what people (and I) assume about it, but also the long long list of side effects that come with. Also, as an avid traveller, I am afraid of losing or having the medications stolen and then being with out them, especially if I am out of the country. I am just... afraid. And still accepting this life-long disease, and the long list of medications that come with it, and the side effects. It is obviously a very, very steep mountain to climb, and I am afraid.

MISSOULA, Mont.—Renewing its commitment to provide training and hands-on experience for current and future wildlife professionals, the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation is extending and expanding its partnership with the Max McGraw Wildlife Foundation of Dundee, Illinois, and its Conservation Leaders for Tomorrow (CLfT) program.
CLfT hosts five-day workshops for wildlife professionals and students who do not hunt. They leave with a deep understanding of hunting and its impact on conservation.
"Supporting CLfT helps RMEF meet its conservation mission of ensuring the future of our hunting heritage," said Blake Henning, RMEF chief conservation officer. "We have witnessed first-hand that this program changes lives and that translates into a stronger understanding and more effective on-the-ground wildlife management practices. We are excited to extend our partnership an additional five years."
Since partnering with CLfT in 2013, RMEF helped expand the program into the western United States. In exit surveys, 98 percent of participants said they acquired a better understanding of hunter motivations and nearly a third said they acquired a better understanding of the relationship between hunting and conservation. Nearly 9 out of 10 described their experience as "excellent."
"Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation's commitment to wildlife conservation and North America's hunting heritage is second to none" said Dr. Zachary Lowe, CLfT director. "RMEF has embraced the CLfT program broadly and we are proud to have them as a national partner in CLfT's mission of advancing an understanding of hunting, angling and trapping to the leaders that run state and federal agencies and manage our wildlife resources."
CLfT does not try to recruit or train participants to be hunters. Rather, the goal is to provide class members with insights into why hunting is important from biological, social, cultural, economic and recreational standpoints. In return participants may advance their careers, better understand the hunting constituency and reinforce the core mission of their individual state and federal agencies.
"RMEF maintains that Hunting Is Conservation and CLfT's curriculum spells out exactly that for our current and future wildlife leaders," added Henning.
For more information about Conservation Leaders for Tomorrow, go to clft.org. Visit mcgrawwildlife.org for more information about the Max McGraw Wildlife Foundation.

About the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation:
Founded over 30 years ago, fueled by hunters and a membership of nearly 235,000 strong, RMEF has conserved more than 7.4 million acres for elk and other wildlife. RMEF also works to open and improve public access, fund and advocate for science-based resource management, and ensure the future of America's hunting heritage.

Public Workshop "Stress Less, Achieve More" (Manchester) 10th March 2017
Productivity Ninja: Grace Marshall (Mob: 07771 640 040)
Friday, 10 March 2017 from 10:00 to 16:00 (GMT)
Event Details
Overwhelmed with too much to do in too little time? Experience a constant feeling of information overload and distraction?
Most "time management" courses focus on trying to manage time, but time isn't the fundamental problem – or the solution. Rather it's about your choices, actions, energy. And most importantly: your attention.
This workshop will give you the tips and tricks to implement a simple, fool proof system to organise and define your work.
We'll show you how to deal with interruptions, paperwork, ideas and information – and how to sift it all for the important stuff, define actions, get organised and stay in control.
You'll reduce stress by eliminating those nagging feelings of doubt, guilt and overload panic, and replace them with a focused, playful, purposeful and productive momentum.
Length/Format - 1 day: 10:00am - 4:00pm (Lunch provided)
There will be practical exercises throughout the day, so feel free to bring along your to-do lists and/or any project-support materials or even your laptop or iPad if you like. Bringing materials with you is not compulsory however, - if you prefer, you can just bring yourself!
Any questions, please email us at firstname.lastname@example.com or call 01273 913217

Q: "My high school friend's son was going to Humboldt State for a free college tour from Southern California and was on the bus that crashed with the FedEx truck last week on Interstate 5 in Red Bluff. He was seriously injured but, thankfully, not killed. There is talk that the driver of the truck may have fallen asleep and crossed the median into the bus. This is such a senseless loss. What rules exist to protect people from this happening?"
A: Sharon, this is such a heart-wrenching tragedy. Everyone with children, myself included, feels a sense of shock and vulnerability in the wake of such devastation.
As trucks and buses often engage in interstate transit, they fall under the state and federal jurisdictions for the purposes of regulation and accident investigation. The federal Department of Transportation issues regulations through the federal Motor Carrier Administration, and in California, the California Vehicle Code sets forth driver restrictions. These regulations basically mirror each other, for the most part.
When there are collisions of this magnitude, the California Highway Patrol mobilizes a major-accident investigation team, and the DOT utilizes the National Transportation Safety Board to analyze collisions to determine what happened and who is responsible. The NTSB's role goes beyond investigating. It makes recommendations to the DOT, the Motor Carrier Administration and other relevant agencies as to what rules might be instituted to avoid similar collisions or to improve safety measures to make collisions more survivable.
Safety regulations are clearly set forth in the federal Motor Carrier Safety Act and the California Vehicle Code. Rules in the federal context are made by the agencies, published in the Federal Register (this is almost like a diary of federal actions) and then codified in the Code of Federal Regulations.
As to the issue of driver fatigue, one must examine the hours of a driver's operation before a collision. These hours are tightly regulated and updates were implemented last year. These hours fall generally into four categories: off duty, on duty (not driving), driving and sleeping-berth time (for long-haul drivers with sleeper cabs). These hours must be meticulously maintained and constantly updated in the driver's logbook, which must be kept in the vehicle at all times and be presented to the CHP or other officials on demand. Do an online search for "Federal Motor Carrier Administration hours of operation logbook examples" or a graphic depiction of a logbook interpretation.
For vehicles transporting goods, like the FedEx truck, there is a driving window of 14 consecutive hours. After 10 consecutive hours off duty, a driver may be on duty no more than 14 hours. Within the 14-hour driving window, generally a driver may drive up to 11 hours. A driver must take a 30-minute rest break after eight hours of driving. Additionally, regulations limit the total number of driving hours to no more than 60 hours in a seven-day period or no more than 70 hours in an eight-day period.
The regulations require a 34-hour restart off-duty period between these cycles, meaning the driver has to be off duty and not driving for that period. This is all designed to reduce driver fatigue and to prevent collisions. Bus drivers, while having similar types of requirements, have different corresponding time periods of operation. I will expound on them next week.
Given that the driver's logbook was likely destroyed in the fire, a forensic examination of miles traveled, and hours between points of travel, will have to be undertaken. Sometimes (not saying that is the case here), drivers maintain two sets of logbooks, one that is presented upon demand to the CHP and one that is presented to the employer for payment.
As you can see, these regulations can be quite complex. I have handled a number of these tragic cases and can tell you that the complexities of such an investigation require resources and experience. Tell your friend to make sure to get an experienced attorney to guide her and her child through this process.

City of Angels (1998)
Angels are among us and when we feel an invisible presence, you better believe they are watching you. For a Los Angeles heart surgeon named Maggie, that is too much of a stretch. She believes that it is her job to save the lives of her patients and when she meets Seth after visiting hours are over, he tells her it's simply just their time to go. She becomes intrigued by his presence and opinion. Seth is not just normal, he is an Angel. He meets Messinger while visiting patients. Messinger can see him because he was once a Angel but gave his power up to become human. This makes Seth want to become human so he can feel, smell, and love Maggie.

I just finished throwing away two handfuls of used up tissues from crying after reading this book.
If you think of books as an escape, sad books suck. If you're eluding the inevitable tragedies of the life you're living, it'd be kind of weird for your solace book to be one that leads you to sob uncontrollably at the outcome of characters you've grown to love.
However, if you're able to read for the sake of reading; to enjoy and appreciate good literature, sad books don't suck so much. I like the sugar-free stories that are realistic and relatable, where tragedy strikes but people get back up on their feet. You can learn to be resilient, and maybe stories are the most enjoyable ways to be taught.
On the other hand, I can't help but indulge in the light-hearted romantic comedies or the classics that are cleverly written but don't stir up any unwarranted sentiments.
Whatever your reason for reading, read on.

You know, the one from a few years back about how they do more by 6AM than most people do all day...
I got up at 7:30am and made sure the kids had breakfast. It wasn't a breakfast of champions as the cupboards were bare so they turned to Kix cereal with soy milk and a strawberry pop tart each. Then I corralled them into brushing their teeth and getting dressed while I made them lunch.
As I was making lunch, I threw in a load of laundry - I had it in the dryer by the time we left for school. Oh, and I changed the kitty litter because today is trash day so it just made sense.
I had a pang in my heart for my youngest; he's going through growing pains and is now realizing that school happens everyday all day and he's not happy about that. Plus it appears he has inherited the seasonal allergies that wreak havoc on his older brother and me so the little fella was a wee bit tired - from school and from a stuffy nose that kept him from a good night's sleep.
After I dropped the boys off I came home and took a shower because I stunk like an ashtray from the show my band played last night in Raleigh. I didn't get home until close to 1am because the city had all these streets closed off for today's celebration of the new convention center. With the street closings and all the construction that the city has seen, I got all turned around and lost my bearings. By the time I readied my ship and got to I40 to head home, I was greeted by the cops who had closed off the west bound ramp. So I got on the east bound ramp and figured I'd just go down one exit and turnaround. But as soon as I got on the interstate I was greeted by more orange cones than I could count and an assload of blinking lights.
Guess the city decided to re-stripe that part of the interstate and I have a hunch it was on account of the previously mentioned celebration because once I got past the city it was nothing but open road.
I also needed to go to the grocery store but to do that I had to manhandle my bass cabinet out of the wagon.
The grocery store was mobbed.
Of course because there's a hurricane headed our way and people like to clog the grocery stores in the name of preparation. I can't blame then, the hype is heavy on Hanna even though the poor bitch has been downgraded to a tropical storm. I have been on the receiving end of poor hurricane preparation and it wasn't pleasant and that was before I had kids.
And then I had the good fortune to have one of those baggers who likes to put like three items in a bag. I should have done it myself like I usually do but the bagger was already halfway into it by the time I finished unloading my cart. Suddenly I felt bad about how environmentally unfriendly my trip to the store had become... then again we do have a rain barrel and we still do use the bucket in the shower.
It's not even noon yet.
I'm not even halfway done with what I need to do today.
And I can't get this song out of my head...

(IFJ/IFEX) - The following is an IFJ media release:
Harassment of Philippines Journalists Via Text Message Threats Continues
The International Federation of Journalists (IFJ) calls for heightened protection of journalists Rey Briones and Turing Sante in the Philippines after reports of an anonymous text message warning their lives were in danger.
According to the National Union of Journalists of the Philippines (NUJP), an IFJ affiliate, Briones, 29, co-anchor of a daily radio commentary program for dwKI-FM in Lucena City and reporter and columnist for local tabloid Southern Tagalog Banner received the text message on October 20.
The message also reportedly mentioned Sante, Briones' co-host on dwKI-FM.
Briones is known for tackling issues such as corruption, governance and the environment in his radio show and newspaper articles, the NUJP said.
Earlier two Davao City-based journalists, Erin Lumosbog, anchor of Radyo Ronda on the RPN9-dxKT network, and James Pala, of Radyo Rapido, both reported receiving threatening text messages after broadcasting allegations about local council extortion on October 10.
"This apparent pattern of members of the public attacking and threatening individual journalists for unfavourable reporting is abhorrent and must end," said IFJ Asia-Pacific Director Jacqueline Park.
"The IFJ stands in solidarity with our colleagues in the Philippines in their courageous work, and reminds all journalists and media institutions that at such a dangerous time for media workers in the Philippines, personal safety must be protected zealously."
The IFJ joins the NUJP in urging journalists who receive similar threats to immediately report the incident to the police, and demanding that police reciprocate by providing full protection for each individual and their families until the perpetrators are found and brought to justice.
The IFJ represents over 600,000 journalists in 120 countries worldwide.

"…it's just a different one than it's had."
Doc Searls quoted Drew Clark today, saying that newspapers as we know them are over – I'm an optimist… The newspaper will not be around in twenty years. Let's say 'taps' and move on.
We've all read tons of articles and blog posts decrying the way the web has affected journalism and claiming the internet and related technology will cause the death of traditional media, but really, is the situation that dire? Yes, journalism is in a state of flux, but the changes aren't necessarily for the worse, even if print newspapers become a distant memory (all the inky newsprint isn't exactly evironmentally friendly anyways).
I've said it before, but I'll repeat myself – the future belongs to the people who can adapt to the changes and forge ahead, not the ones who struggle to make technology fit the old molds. That's at least part of the reason why startups and independent news sites have gained so much popularity on the web – they don't have that albatross of tradition hanging around their necks.
As always, if you've got plans or projects that involve the ever-changing world of digital technology and journalism, check out the Knight News Challenge – you could win funding, support, and make your ideas a reality.

Former Steps star Lisa Scott-Lee has spoken of her devastation at the break-up of the chart-topping band.
Speaking for the first time since the group decided to call it a day 16 months ago, the 27-year-old singer said she felt she had "lost everything".
Scott-Lee was told the devastating news that two of her fellow band members Ian "H" Watkins and Claire Richards wanted to quit as she prepared to face thousands of adoring fans at a concert in Manchester.
"I was very, very angry," she said. "It was bad timing and bad taste."
Following the break-up she wondered if the band's young fans would take down their bedroom posters or if the free haircuts would stop.
"That thought killed me", she said.
Steps had their first hit with 5-6-7-8 in 1997. They went on to sell 12 million records.
Scott- Lee is now about to launch her solo career.
