Over the years I have witnessed Coast grow and prosper but NOT at the expense of the consistent personalized care and attention to detail we have received beginning in 1987 as their first client. Our assets continue to thrive under their management.
Since I walked in the door of Coast in 2005, all my dealings with Coast personnel have been positive and I appreciate all of your good work and always wanting to do the best. It means a lot to me. I am grateful to be part of such an admirable 'working together' team!
I wanted to congratulate and thank Coast for the great work they are doing across our housing sites in maintaining the properties and meeting all of the compliance requirements. We are very proud of our properties and their condition. Thank you for helping us achieve excellence in providing quality affordable housing for families in need.
You are an awesome company. Thanks for the many ways you partner with us.

What can be said about, "The Road Warrior" in terms of it's overall value of a feature film? Now personally I've been a Mad Max fan since I watch the first Mad Max film from 1979. Yes I've also seen all three parts of the Mad Max story and each have high and low points.
However, I came hear today to talk about the second installment; "The Road Warrior" as it is known. In my professional opinion in critical reviewing films this story jumps out at me.
The first time I saw this movie I was hooked before the opening narration was finished. The way the narrator used images and subtle almost savage words to describe the fall of human society was chilling. In fact in the series it doesn't even fully address there was an Apocalypse until the third film.
In the opening chase scene when we see Max the auidence can clearly see how worn out he has become ever since the closing to the first film. He drifts all over the wasteland with only the search for gasoline to fuel his motivation.
We also get two main villians: A Mohawk Warrior named Wez and the Leader The Lord Humungus. Here we see the contrast between these two; where Wez is a loud and violent warrior with a thirst for blood. The Lord Humungus attempts to lure his enemies into false sercurity with his empty promises this goes well with his Mask as he hides his real face and with it his true nature. (His mask which you will later see ripped off in Friday the 13th Part 3 by Jason LOL no it's cool.) I mean if the first Saw movie can steal the ending death for the first Mad Max movie with cutting off your own leg then why not LOL.
Basically, to sum it up Mad Max 2 The Road Warrior is more then just an action packed summer flic. It has depth to it's story however due to the short lines of dialouge a big portion of the stories hidden messages is told strictly through visuals. As seen in the outfits, weapons, and of course the cars.
This film only gets better the further you watch it and the final climax car chase in my opinion is one of the greatest and most realistic action scenes I've ever had the pleasure of viewing in my time. This movie was so well put together in terms of an action film and it also had some quite and light hearted moments so we as the auidence could sit back and take in the atmosphere and the story itself.
Personally I love all the Mad Max films but in my opinion The Road Warrior is so well directed, written, and spaced out that it could have been a stand alone film without parts 1 and 3. However, I am grateful to both George Miller and Terry Hayes for writing this picture and of course Mel Gibson who will always be the one and the only Mad Max.
We all feel your loss Max we've all lost someone we've loved. But, you shall regain your humainty Max and you will be able to live again thank you for your time :)
-(For a first review I hope I did okay)

Winchester, Virginia — The American South (Mid-Atlantic)
Braddock Street Methodist Church
From Court House to Church
Thirty-two charter members met July 24, 1858, in the Frederick County Court House and were organized as a congregation of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, Virginia Conference.
The first church building was erected 1858-59 on this site near the corner of Braddock and Wolfe. The first service was the celebrating of Christmas, 1858, in the basement at the partially completed church. The church building was dedicated July 1859.
Civil War and Recovery
After the Battle of Kernstown, March 23, 1862, the wounded were brought to the church which continued to be used as a hospital by occupying forces throughout the war. Damaged extensively, it was partially repaired [not legible]
A Church for the 20th Century
During the Post-War Era the church and Sunday School membership grew steadily, demanding more room. The original structures were remodeled and enlarged from a practically new sanctuary (1898), a Sunday School House was built (1904), and the Golden [not legible] Bible Class remodeled the sanctuary basement for their classroom (1913).

As I sip on mums home made chai on this beautiful Wednesday night I think how can International Womens Day today get any better.
Over the last year or so, I've been pausing the fashion and freelance work to pursue work that has more stability. See freelance life gives you the chance to be your own boss and do it your way. I practically worked from my bed most mornings which was great. I am sure once I am more settled I will dive back into it but in terms of living, you have to be on budget and make sure you had a another project lined up once your old contact was over.
Usually with social media its a free internship gig or you need 100 years of experience before being considered. It was very rare you found that perfect in between. I've been lucky enough to have gotten the jobs I did throughout the years by people and businesses I already had contacts with.
By last quarter of 2016 I landed that first full time job. I thought yes finally, I get to work with one of Australia's top brands and see what corporate life is like. Boy was I in for a ride. I'll save that story for another post probably titled "why creatives shouldn't do corporate".
But today I celebrated a win. I landed a social media role at an agency who works with some prestige brands both internationally and locally. Theres so much creativity and collaborative initiative here its insane. It's only been one day and I am so amazed with the amount of knowledge my fellow employees have to offer. I am so excited to see what I learn here I've been hungry to absorb as much as I can.
And with a new job comes new elevator mirrors so I will be looking forward to sharing my cute little OOTDS with you all.

Welcome to the Next Iteration of the FBC Weekly Bulletin
The Past
Since the early 90's, we have sent a weekly message to our members, originally by fax and then by email. We sought to deepen our understanding of issues, keep people informed about progress, and encourage engagement in projects and events. Once the Collaborative Regional Initiative launched in 2000, we included our partners on the distribution list. With the launch of Regional Jobs Initiative in 2003 and the Human Investment Initiative in 2007, the depth and breadth of activities and participants has multiplied exponentially.
New Approach
Our plan is to provide regular updates in three interdependent spheres of work:
Economic Development
Infrastructure Development
Human Development
Each sphere has strong leaders and a growing network of people working on specific projects. The leaders are "tri-lingual" in that they understand that all spheres are equally important, have a working understanding of the primary strategies in each one and are in regular communication with their counterparts in order to maximize opportunities to support one another.
Collaboration is Crucial
Gaining a sense of urgency due to economic upheaval, communities across the country are working hard to develop collaborative skills in order to align resources behind priorities. Fortunately, in Fresno we have had a lot of practice and thanks to the California Partnership for the San Joaquin Valley, http://www.sjvpartnership.org/ , our region has also developed collaborative skills.
New Website
While we have the same web address, thanks to Cynthia Downing at Professional Exchange Services, we have a new website that is interactive and will enable us to distribute real time information to those interested in more timely updates in areas of interest. The website is http://www.fresnobc.org/. Also, on the site, you will find links to our partners, action plans and other documents. Anyone interested in receiving the bulletin can simply sign up on the site.
Communication Goals
While sharing information is central the purpose of the bulletin, our goal is to provide an added value—an attempt to help answer an ongoing question, so what does it all mean? While only a perception, our most active members and partners are in a position to see how the pieces fit together and where progress is happening in key strategies. In addition, we hope that you will be inspired by a project, issue or initiative and get engaged where you can have the greatest impact.

This meal is a shoutout to Belmund, who said Chalet BBQ was some of the best chicken he's ever had, so I saved this meal for our last bite before heading back to New York.
Now, I don't know about the chicken, but I will say, the chicken soup is some of the best I've had in a weird diner / restaurant. At first glance, it resembles a can of Campbell's,
But inside, the shells are small and smooth, the stock is rich and balanced, and it was fully comforting. I could easily eat this over and over again.
The leg quarter chicken plate comes jampacked with golden rotisserie chicken, handcut fries and toasted set of sandwich buns.
The chicken was moist, the skin sticky, and the fries were crisp and salty. It was quite satisfying, but not a contender for the best !
Thanks for trying, Belly!
PS. Do not order the BBQ chicken sandwich. Comes with an eerie ramekin of tainted BBQ sauce, or maybe that was just our luck.
Han's Nonsensical Rating: Chalet BBQ - surprisingly delicious chicken soup !

Configuring Aastra SIP-DECT Solution with 3CX Phone system
Please Note: The Aastra series of IP phones are no longer supported for 3CX Phone System. This page is here for documentation purposes only. Check out the 3CX supported IP phones at the bottom of this page or on the 3CX Support page.
IMPORTANT This guide has been tested with the following:
OMM version 1.6.6
Software version 126.96.36.199
Hardware version number 1.11.11
Base Station Aastra RFP L32 IP (indoor)
Be aware that different firmware revisions may have different web interface formats and functionality.
- Plug the Aastra Basestation into a POE switch or use the power supply attached. The POE switch must be IEEE 802.af compliant.
- Create a DHCP reservation on the DHCP server. Otherwise use the OM Configurator Tool. You will need the following:
a) TFTP server
b) Open Mobility Configurator tool
c) Java Runtime Environment version 1.4 or higher for OM configurator tool
You can download the OM tool and the tftp image from the following location:
or you can use the tool provided – OMM Activation CD.
- Assigning an IP address to the RFPThere are 2 ways – the first is creating a DHCP reservation. In the reservation also include the Boot Server Host Name [tftp server ip] and the Bootfile name [omm_ffsip.tftp].The second way is using the OM Configurator tool. The instructions below will explain how to achieve a local configuration of the RFP.Using the OM configurator tool – Once you have installed Java on your machine, open OM_Configurator.jar using Java and the following screen will be displayed.
Figure 1: OM configuration toolSet Use Local Configuration – Set this to "Yes". If the Yes checkbox is selected, DHCP will be disabled and the IP Address will be assigned statically to the RFP.
Enter the IP address you want to assign to the RFP and proceed with the Subnet mask.
Enter the TFTP server IP address (you can use Pumpkin by Klever) and under TFTP file name insert the application image downloaded with the OM tool – omm_ffsip.tftp.
Finally insert the OMM IP address. Please read the documentation by Aastra for further information about RFP and OMM. This is important when you have more than one RFP. In this case this single RFP will be assigned as the OMM in your SIP-DECT network.Click on "Send Configuration". The Configuration will be sent to the RFP.Place the application image in the TFTP directory. Start TFTP server.The RFP will request the image from the TFTP server. Once access is granted, the firmware will be loaded. The first LED will blink red.In a single RFP scenario, it is important that the RFP is an OMM. An OMM will load extra services like Web configuration default on port 80.

Philharmonia Orchestra: Voices of Revolution from Philharmonia Orchestra on Vimeo.
On Thursday 22 March, our Voices of Revolution series with Vladimir Ashkenazy continues with Workers & The State, featuring works by Prokofiev, Mosolov and Glière. Musicologist and Russian music expert Marina Frolova-Walker introduces the evening's programme.
By 1924, Russia's wounds from the Revolution and the Civil War had started to heal. Trading with the West was tentatively resumed, and cultural exchanges became possible once more. In 1925, Russian music lovers were able to hear Prokofiev's Third Piano Concerto for the first time, three years after it had conquered Paris. The encounter was enough to turn Russian composers and critics away from Alexander Scriabin, their previous idol, and they now embraced Sergei Prokofiev.
His concerto offered them all they wanted: it combined the bold dissonances of modernism with a reassuring classicism, and even found a place for some nostalgic Russian lyricism in the manner of Sergei Rachmaninov. Both Prokofiev and Rachmaninov were, of course, emigres at this point, but the Soviet government now put out feelers to see if they could be enticed back.
Igor Stravinsky was also invited, but neither he nor Rachmaninov were interested. Prokofiev, however, gave a positive reply, and in 1927, he returned to his homeland for the first time in almost a decade. This was only for a concert tour, but he was welcomed with great warmth and even adulation from the Russian public. This visit set in motion a chain of events that led to Prokofiev's permanent return ten years later.
The intense musical life of 1920s Russia also produced some new stars, including Alexander Mosolov, who came to fame for his great modernist novelty, The Iron Foundry (1926-27), which had originally been intended as part of a ballet score. 'Machine music' was all the rage in Europe thanks to Arthur Honegger's Pacific 231 (1923), named after the steam engine that it portrayed, but Mosolov's Foundry was still more extreme, and also more gripping with something of a heroic 'hymn to labour' in the horns.
Coming just before the first Five-Year Plan - which made industrialisation the priority - and we might expect that Mosolov's piece would be hailed as a kind of theme tune for these titanic efforts. Even so, it received a barrage of criticism for its rootedness in Western musical trends, and the critics accused the composer of being interested only in machines at the expense of the 'liberated' workers who operated them.
Mosolov's harsh modernism soon made him an outcast, and in 1932, he even wrote a blunt letter to Stalin (now a rather grand figure), asking him either to silence his critics or to let him leave the country (The Iron Foundry was now making waves in Paris). For various independent reasons, the critics were indeed told to shut up, but so was Mosolov himself. He began to curry favour with the authorities by trying to write more conservative music, but in 1937, he received a sentence of eight years (reduced to eight months) in a labour camp (for reasons unconnected to his music). His highly original modernist voice never resurfaced.
In the end, it was a relatively conservative stylistic spectrum that was deemed fit for 'music of the people'. One composer who flourished in this atmosphere was Reinhold Glière, who was already a mature composer in his forties at the time of the Revolution.
Glière had several ambitious works behind him, the most famous being his epic Third Symphony, Ilya Muromets, but even then, his gifted private pupil, Prokofiev, was threatening to overshadow him. Glière was happy to comply with whatever demands the state would issue on musical matters: 'just tell us what to do', he said at one official meeting.
In the mid 1920s Glière even pre-empted later trends when he wrote one of the first ballets on a Soviet theme: The Red Poppy, on a fictitious plot foretelling the spread of revolution to China. Staged at the Bolshoi in 1927, this became a classic despite its clunky plot and rather conventional ballet music. Glière modernised his score by including a popular street song Yablochko (Little Apple), which was choreographed as a lively 'Sailors' Dance'.
Glière's conservatism and his willingness to please won him many awards and honours, although he still remained in the shadows of Prokofiev and Dmitri Shostakovich, whose greater artistry was duly recognised in spite of their risk-taking and individualism.
One of Glière's most unusual hits is his Concerto for Coloratura Soprano and Orchestra (1943), which is in a genre of its own. This work won Glière a Stalin Prize, even though it must have seemed ill-starred: he used the voice without words, passing up the chance of using a stirring Soviet text, and the vocal writing was of the sort associated with Italianate frivolity rather than Russian seriousness. Despite these disadvantages, the mournful first movement captured well the sombre wartime mood, while the joyful finale seemed to look ahead to the better days that would follow victory. In any case, the concerto had become a safe and sure Soviet genre, not least because the state was eager to showcase virtuosos, such as David Oistrakh and Emil Gilels, on the international stage.
As Soviet music entered its darkest period during Stalin's final years, Prokofiev and Shostakovich were denounced for their formalism (that is, the vestiges of modernism that remained part of their music). Mosolov had shrunk to the margins of musical life, while Glière continued to win awards for his innocuous ballets and quartets, which were always melodious and written with impeccable technique.
'The people' were offered music that was beautiful without any hint of excess or provocation – just the kind of music that had been denounced as 'bourgeois' in the West. And because a desire for the beautiful and heart-warming never fades, works like Glière's concerto seem to have stood the test of time and crossed borders much more easily than many of the abrasive modernist masterworks of the period.

RPC – Remote Procedure Call

RPC or a remote procedure call, in the computer world, is required for a communication session of the inner processes. That will also let the computer programs to search out subroutines or else procedures for execution using any other address spaces. But all this can be done without a programmer's coding facilitation in order to perform the remote interaction. Anyhow, a programmer can write the same code for the both local and remote subroutine.

They also came over to our balcony to give our toucan some company. We were watching them with our door open, but after one tried to fly into our apartment we decided the door closed would be a better option, so we admired them from inside. I wouldn't mind waking up to these guys every day.

It's been quiet on the blog front mainly because it has been a busy few months. Most notably, Louise and I tied the knot in June, a wonderful day in the presence of our dear friends.
A couple of months later, we had a big celebration garden party for friends and family. Much hog roast was eaten and many drinks were drunk. Appropriately, we had a wonderful cheese wedding cake.
I'm a very lucky man :)

In today's post at The Open Road, News.com blogger Matt Asay takes Gartner to task for "underhyping" open source. Specifically, he takes issue with the research firm's predictions in its "Hype Cycle for Open Source Software 2007" report that "we're years away from enterprise adoption of the following open-source software categories: content management (5-10 years); enterprise service bus (5-10 years); J2EE application servers (2-5 years); and IP telephony (2-5 years)."
We're not years away in any of those categories, he says, unless by "mainstream enterprise adoption" Gartner means that everyone is already using open source. He suggests "a wide cross-section of the market" is already on board in those categories -- that the market has progressed from "early adopters" to its "early majority" growth phase.
As examples, he points to his own company, enterprise content management provider Alfresco; to open source ESB provider MuleSource; and to Red Hat's JBoss division.
Gartner concedes it's unrealistic for software companies to ignore open source, but that fact is not accurately reflected in the report. As Asay concludes:
Gartner understands this, but seems to leave it out of its Hype Cycle calculation. Gartner writes:
Today, it has become impractical for mainstream IT organizations to avoid or ignore the influence of open source across a wide variety of industry market segments. Doing so will put organizations at a serious disadvantage against competitors who are leveraging mature, stable and well-supported open-source technologies for significant return on investment and total cost of ownership (TCO) opportunities. Moreover, open source is entering IT organizations embedded within market-leading products (themselves not open source) from a wide range of vendors, including IBM, Oracle, BEA Systems, SAP and many others.
Amen. Now we just need to see that reality reflected in the Hype Cycle schematic.

Ansel Adams: Celebration of Genius
- David Pollock
- 31 January 2008
The name Ansel Adams is virtual shorthand for landscape photography at its finest. A shy child prodigy, home-schooled and self-taught to read and play music at the age of 12, the teenaged Californian first experienced photography two years later, playing with the Box Brownie his parents bought him around the mountains of Yosemite. Under the patronage of the philanthropist Albert M Bender and the mutual creative influence of photographer Edward Weston, he would eventually give up a promising early career as a concert pianist to combine his greatest loves, photography and nature, as a vocation.
Adams was a lifelong proponent of 'straight photography', an 'as is' method of creating an image which made no use of camera trickery or excessive darkroom manipulation, yet the stark, sharp, crisply-defined black and white pictures he took are loaded with their own, almost unconscious, narrative. In the largely unpeopled rocks and plains and valleys of the American West Adams captured, there were romantic re-engagements with the pioneer spirit of those who had settled on these lands long before. It's hard to imagine that John Ford or Jack Kerouac, for instance, might have lasted their entire careers without considering Adams' work.
'The world is falling to pieces and all Adams photograph(s) is rocks and trees,' Henri Cartier-Bresson is alleged to have once complained. Yet, the photographer, an environmentalist before the term was popularised, knew that the world of nature is at least as important as the world of man. Featuring 150 photographs from the 1920s to the 1960s, this is the first Ansel Adams retrospective in Scotland, and the largest ever held in the UK. (David Pollock)

Verify burnt dvd/cd
I can't figure out how to turn on an option to verify a written cd/dvd with the "basic explorer burn" method (neither in mediaplayer when try to write audio cds).
Is it possible?
Another question:
is it possible to set up various gaps (I mean seconds) between audio tracks with mediaplayer (or mediacenter, whatever)? There I can found only one option:
"Burn CD without gaps"
Is that all?

For a basic burn, right clicking on say an iso opens this window which has the verify option.
I'm not sure but I dont think such an option is available in WMP.
WMP automatically inserts a 2 second gap between tracks.

1 for PAPA,
1 for MAA,
1 for GOD.
oh! wat about u dear
Sorry no place for u
in my heart……..
bcoz frendz like u
are my heartbeat..
Best ever quote in friendship:
Some say "always remember me."
some say "never forget me."
But I will say.. "forget me if u really can.."
Jo judai mile to woh hai ghum,
Jo dair se mile to woh hai paisa,
Jo kisi kisi ko mile woh hai pyar,
Jo qismat se mile woh hain AAP
Years may fly,
tears may dry,
but my friendship with u will never die.
If CARE is a WAVE,
i give u SEA.
If RESPECT is a LEAF,
i give u TREE.
If TRUST is a PLANET,
i give u GALAXY,
if FRIENDSHIP is LIFE,
i give u MINE 4 FREE..
Dosti ke waaday ko yuhi nibhatay rahengay,
HUM har waqt APKO satate-mnaate rahengay.
Mar bhi jayein to kya gham hai HUM AANSU bankar aapki ankhon me ate rahengay.
Aik hassi jo hasa de
Aik ansoo jo rula de
Aik aarzoo jo jaga de
Aik chahat jo samjha de
Her aahat jo jaan le
Uss rishtay ka naam hai
A good Friend is like a computer
he ENTERS in your life SAVE himself
in your heart,FORMATS all your troubles
and never DELETE you from his heart.
Good FRIENDS are hard to find,
harder to leave,
and impossible to forget.
Most people walk in and out of your life,
but only FRIENDS leave footprints in
your heart.
Kabhi ankahi baaton ki ada hai Dosti,
Kabhi Gam ki dawa hai Dosti,
Kami hai Pujne walon ki,
Warna zameen par khuda hai DOSTI.
Be Friends Forever!
Dosti mausam nahi jo apni muddat poori karay aur rukhsat ho jayai,
Dosti phool nahi jo khilay aur murjha jayai,
Doosti tou sans hay jo challay tu sub kuch hay.
Jo totay to kuch bhi nahin…….
One day Friendship & Love met one-another.
Love asked Friendship –
"Why do You exist if I'm there?"
So Friendship said –
"To give a Smile to those eyes in which You leave Tears."
I kept your name in my JOURNAL,
and posted you in the LEDGER of my heart,
you wont be classified as FIXED ASSETS,
because the MARKET VALUE of friendship
will never DEPRECIATE from heart.
Ek sacha dost wahi he jo apka pahla ansu ponch le dusra ansu rok le or agar tisra ansu aya to jor se thappad mare or kahe 'le ab khul k ro le
N-Never Ending
Best "stand" is undr"stand"
Best "age" is colle"age"
Best "work" is hard"work"
Best "day" is to"day"
Never "end" is fri"end
Life is like a novel. Many chapters read and forgotten.
But there is one I wont forget.
It's the chapter
"I met u and we became friends".
Fish said to water
: you wont see my tears,
because I am in the water.
Water replied: But, I can feel your
tears because you are in my heart.
That's FRIENSHIP
"FRIENDSHIP" is a sim,
which has no activation charges.
Free incoming and outgoing
with roaming all over the world
and it's validity "NEVER ENDs"…
"FEELiNG"is a painting never spoil it
"FACE"is a book try to read it
"LOVE" is precious be ready to sacrifice for it
"FRiENDSHiP" is a mirror never"break" it.
Friendship is not collection of
hearts but it is selection of hearts.
All friends are not True.
But true friends are very few,
Which includes U……
Dosti ghazal hey gungunanay k liye,
Dosti naghma hay sunanay k liye,
Yeh woh jazba hay jo sub ko milta nahin,
Kiyon k hosla chahiye dosti nibhanay k liye..

Contributing Writer
Scandinavian writers of mystery and crime stories have drawn the attention of readers around the world for their tough characters and gruesome settings.� The late Stieg Larsson, a Swedish journalist, has topped the list of these authors with his three-volume novel, "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo," "The Girl Who Played with Fire" and "The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet�s Nest," all about an international group of crooks and government officials trying to murder a young woman who can endanger their powerful international scheme with her Internet skills. Rather than focus on one detective or policeman to handle the case, Larsson sets up a broad number of people to deliver information to the investigators; some are useful; others, not, in establishing the truth.
In the United States. island mystery writer Steven Axelrod brings this broad style of detectors to Nantucket in �Nantucket Sawbuck,� a phrase referring to a shady $10 bill.� His Nantucket mystery characters are eager to get land and cash; rumors of ill-gotten gains have simmered on the island since its recent prosperity as a flashy resort.� The Little Gray Lady, once considered a haven for thrifty Quaker residents, now throbs for jobs and schemes which will accumulate property and romance for some of its inhabitants.� Axelrod uses events and characters which recall from the history of the island how angry many of the local population react when an islander suddenly parades fancy vehicles and yachts and grandiose houses among his holdings. In this story the island�s richest man, Preston Lomax, plays with the envy of citizens to tempt them into love affairs and exotic pills for their amusement.
When contractors deliver their bills to Preston Lomax, he always questions the work they have done or the poor materials they have used.� He delights in watching his wife and his girlfriends flirt and compete with each other for gifts and drugs.� He encourages drug sales among the police and the teenagers. He bankrupts a local newspaper for speaking against his opinions. His own sons share jokes about ways to kill him. He makes a long list of people who wish to kill him, even his business partners, who suspect that he is draining the money out of their corporation.� When he invites islanders to benefit parties at his house, he expects them to donate generously for a cause but seldom adds to the amount.
Unfortunately, just as Lomax is arranging to escape to Central America, he is killed at his Christmas party, and the new Police Chief, Henry Kennis, must untangle the list of islanders, old and young, who may have been determining to kill him. Like Stieg Larssen, he interviews almost everyone who knew Lomax; he is sure that some valuable clue will appear to him as he leafs through testimonies and times and dates.� Everyone seems to be cooperative but at the same time watchful of one another.
And two casual comments passing by Kennis�s glimpse reveal the important clue.

The Minneapolis Star Tribune has a gripping profile of a Muslim doctor living in Dawson, Minnesota -- why he moved there, how the election shook his faith in his neighbors, and his reluctant efforts to explain not just what Islam is, but why he experienced the widespread support for Donald Trump in his community as a deep and personal betrayal. It is a compelling and necessary read.
I've mentioned that my fiancée is from Owatonna, Minnesota, and that I regularly am out there visiting her family. Owatonna is about three hours from Dawson (it's in the southern part of the state, while Dawson is out west), but they both are in rural areas that swung hard to the right this election. Owatonna, too, had a hateful incident in the immediate aftermath of the election (a middle-aged man followed a Muslim teenager around a Kwik-Trip and asked "Now that Donald Trump's president, why do I still have to see Muslims? Go back to your own country.").
I don't mean to imply this is just a rural phenomenon -- after all, my very suburban elementary school got tagged with swastikas just before the election. This isn't about playing gotcha, or kick the hick.
But in both the Dawson and Owatonna cases, Muslim community members specifically suggest that there is an extra degree of alienation knowing that many, if not most, of their neighbors, classmates, or colleagues voted for Trump. Voted to put him on a registry. Voted to ban them from the country. Voted to demonize them and consider them all terrorists seeking to impose Sharia law on the country.
Now, frequently they'll deny that. It was about insurance premiums, not race or religion or ethnicity. Put aside the ludicrous notion that Donald Trump is going to make insurance more affordable. There's a deeper problem, for it's a less of a defense than one might think to say "demonizing you, rendering you a second-class citizens, labeling you an enemy of the state -- all on account your faith -- these didn't matter to me." There's a sort of negligence at work here, where people look at what Donald Trump said about their fellow Americans and said "that's not important to me. I'm willing to accept that for the sake of demolishing Obamacare."
This is why there's a sense of betrayal here that goes beyond simply one's preferred candidate losing. When we vote, we are making one of the most consequential statements about not just our own priorities, but our vision of care and concern for everyone in our community and country. It is not and should not be thought of as the equivalent of a consumer selecting their preferred brand of grapes. When people reveal their values in this way -- "I'm not saying I like the Muslim ban, but her emails" -- it is not wrong for those persons whose lives and equality are so grossly undervalued to take exception. And it isn't wrong for them to insist that their classmates, colleagues, and neighbors look them in the eye and be made to reckon with what they did.

[Edited by Elite, 2/4/2008 2:34:29 AM]
I agree to a cretin extent. The movies don't suck, but I do think that they should follow the story of the games. I remember when the first one came out and I was thinking it was going to be like the game, and it wasn't I was a bit irritated.
My avatar is hot.
and none of the characters from the games show up until the 3rd and its only clair,i remember re2 scarin the crap outa me when i was 8 and i liked her in code veronica
Actually Jill Valitine for the first game is in the second movie.

I had a bit, no a major problem Friday with my Ebosser. I treated myself to the latticed heart EF from Joanna Sheen's shop. It arrived within 2 days of ordering on line. I thought I would use this for my next card. So i set aside some time Friday to make said card. I used usual sandwich for EF and then half way through it jammed, it tried to spit it back out but only moved an inch and the machine turned off. So I turned it on again it moved forward, stopped spat back an inch and turned off. I did this for a few more times not getting any further. So I decided to go back to the help desk where I purchased it from. The man I spoke to on the helpline, he said no problem madam, just get a block of wood and a mallet and hit it out,( modern technology is FAB is'nt it ) he guaranteed me this would work. So that's what I did, did'nt move a mm. I waited until 11 o'clock pm when Paul got back from a Sev 1 call, and we both tried again, not a mm of movement. Paul said the only thing now is to take it apart.After a couple of hours my lovely Ebooser was spread all over my workroom floor the roller bearings were everywhere. Paul then said, right it's too late to put it back together now, Ill do it in the morning. Guess what!, it's still on the floor. In fairness we had people over Yesterday for an all day and evening Bar-b-q-. As I speak he is taking all the bits out to the kitchen, he is covering the island with cardboard so as not to damage it, if only he thought of doing that on my workroom floor as I now have grease to boot on my carpet. Paul is a very very intelligent man, but logic fails him sometimes.It looks like emergency ward 10 of the toolshed world in the kitchen. He said I'm not holding out much hope for the Ebosser, but I'll try and resuscitate it.
I would use me Joy Trouvalle, but can't find 2 of the plates, I've got a little spellbinder artisan but Sue's dies are too big, so I think I will have to change my focal point. I will let you know the outcome of Ebosser gate later.. I would like to add that when we managed to get the EF out, the lattice heart is thicker plastic than any other of Sue's folders I have purchased. so just to make you aware they do vary when using electric machines.
Talk later
Love Tina XX

Oh Tina not good, Patricia was saying she has had problems with her Ebosser . We were at a demo day last Sunday and the lady doing the demo had Ebosser and was saying if it jams a block of wood and a hammer will in jam it. To me that's not good the machine should be able to cope. Here's hoping Paul gets it back working for you. Hazel xxReplyDelete
Aww what a pity about your EBosser, a hammer and a piece of would, that's some remedy to fixing it. I'm sorry to hear your trouble with it as I have been fancying one for a while now. I have a Big Shot and love it, but I can only do 6x6 cards. Hope Paul manages to fix it, good luck, hugs Kate xReplyDelete
Hi Tina OMG never in a million years would I think a help desk would tell you to hit it with a piece of wood & hammer.ReplyDelete
I have an Ebosser too & did have trouble with Sues folders but when Julia was on c&c she told us the sandwich
It was from bottom up D ,EF with card B rubber mat C it worked with the sea garden EF but yesterday tried the fanfare & wouldn't go through it stopped so I turned off turned it on again & came back out ( no hammer ) hope Paul has managed to get it all back together
Hugs Lynda xxReplies
Hi LyndaDelete
That's the combo I used, but my machine would'nt accept it at all. So in the end I used, D, EF with card 3 pieces of card and C, no rubber mat or B plate. Like I say I looked at the thickness of the latticed heart when we took it apart and it was a lot thicker. That will teach me to check my folders in future. Thank god the NHS don't treat us the same way if we get something stuck in our throats.
Love Tina X
OMG!! Tina I do hope now Paula has got the EBosser together again it will work.ReplyDelete
I really do not like mine. I can cut out the same thing three times in a row. The fourth time it spits it back at me. I have no luck with embossing folders, I use my GC for them. Hazel has my GC at the moment hers is away for repair. I love my wee CuttleBug but it's too small for some of the Dies.
I am thinking about a Big Shot but it is not that much bigger than the CB and no use for folders.
Tell you what can't believe you were told to hit it with mallet and a piece of wood. I did hear the lady from Crafters Comanion say the same thing and was appalled.
MACHINES ......... don't you just LOVE them!!!
Patricia xx

Oh my goodness Tina. Julia told us the sandwich to use with Sue's new folder's on her last show, and to feed the open side of the folder through first. The sandwich Julia used is : -ReplyDelete
Bottom up (cheer's lol)
magnetic shim
Folder and card
rubber mat
C plate
as she was making the sandwich I was pausing the recording so I could make sure Id got it down right and added it to my ebosser user mannual. So I hope this combo works for who ever uses it (would be nice to have feedback if it works ok) Im sure many of us are now afraid to try it, as its the only 'mangle' most of us have got so it would be awful to have to go back to card making knowing we cant use our Sue dies !!! : (
Glad all is well, so NO excuse Tina, we want more cards lol.

Loss of reading ability is typical of the late mild/early moderate stage of Alzheimer's disease Alzheimer's diseaseA neurological disease that affects memory and behaviour. It is characterized by beta-amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles in the brain. There is no known cause but genetics and lifestyle are thought to play a role.. Most people with severe dementia (from any cause) can no longer read. Often, people with mild Alzheimer's disease can read perfectly well (this can be shown by having them read out loud) but cannot remember what they have read.

I saw a card using this stamp and I was determined to find it, as it had retired. I found it on Ebay and I had to buy it. I've had it for a couple of years but always had a tough time getting a good crisp image. It's a clear stamp set so it just doesn't stamp that great UNTIL I tried it with Versafine ink. I had to touch up the bottom a little bit with a black Copic marker but I don't even see that I did it.
I hope this card brings a smile to Amber's face :).

Just In Time for Father's Day - a DSD collection
Available here for Kindle (other formats to follow).
Once again the eight authors of DoSomeDamage.com bring together eight stories of murder and mayhem in these linked stories.
TERMINAL DAMAGE, a Spinetingler Magazine nominee for best anthology, featured stories linked together by one awful day in an airport.
The brand new COLLATERAL DAMAGE builds on the success of the earlier collection, this time focusing on Father's Day.
This collection boasts stories from Joelle Charbonneau (SKATING AROUND THE LAW, SKATING OVER THE LINE, the Paige Marshall mysteries), John McFetridge (LET IT RIDE, DIRTY SWEET), Dave White (WHEN ONE MAN DIES, WITNESS TO DEATH), Russel D. McLean (THE LOST SISTER, THE GOOD SON), Sandra Ruttan (THE FRAILTY OF FLESH, SUSPICIOUS CIRCUMSTANCES), Scott D. Parker (HANFORD: A Harry Truman Mystery, ROUND ONE), Jay Stringer (OLD GOLD, SCORCHED EARTH), and Steve Weddle (NEEDLE Magazine).
From the introduction:
Collateral Damage:
A Father's Day Collection of Mayhem
To follow the immense fun -- um, I mean HUGE FINANCIAL SUCCESS -- of our TERMINAL DAMAGE collection, we came up with this book.
TERMINAL DAMAGE was tied together in that all the stories took place at an airport on the same day – when all hell broke loose.
The eight stories in COLLATERAL DAMAGE are tied together by Father's Day. Revenge, mysteries, killings and more bleed through the pages of this book.
We hope you enjoy this one as much as folks seemed to enjoy TERMINAL DAMAGE.

Lady Gaga To Preview latest album At Paris Fashion Show
4:56 PM parmeswar , Posted in Born This Way , Gaga , MUGLER , The Fame , Thierry Mugler , 0 Comments
NEW YORK: Lady Gaga is set to Show her latest album 'Born This Way' at the fall winter 2011-2012 Paris Fashion Week.
Gaga tweeted, 'I am the musical director for the MUGLER fashion show. I am remixing or previewing a record on Born This Way.
That would be famous fashion designer Thierry Mugler, who is well versed in putting on impressive, celebrity stuffed fashion shows in Paris.
The LA Times renowned that Mugler's new Creative Director is Nicola Formichetti, the woman who designed Gaga's infamous meat dress, so it all seems joined.
GaGa will release "Born This Way" and her follow up to "The Fame" in the United States on May 23 Of the new shot, she previously said,
"The album is a marriage of electronic music with major, epic, dare I even say, metal or rock 'n' roll, pop, anthemic style melodies with truly sledge-hammering dance beats."
The Mugler show happens in Paris on Wednesday January 19, so all are expect leaks of the remixes very soon from eager audience members.

'Housewives of NJ' star reportedly upset with castmate over blog
HollywoodNews.com: Things are getting even worse with the 'Real Housewives of New Jersey' as Jacqueline Laurita and Teresa Giudice now seem to be fighting over their parenting styles.
On the most recent episode of the show, both stars questioned each other's parenting style. This then led to Laurita addressing the matter in a blog that commented, "Teresa should pay closer attention to the way Gia is already speaking to her parents and other adults at the early age of 10, because I recognize some of that behavior and Teresa may have a long, hard road ahead of her," states RadarOnline.
However, this reportedly hit too close to home for Giudice. She is allegedly furious because she feels like her daughter is being attacked.
Giudice's young daughter has reportedly received some backlash due to her behavior that spurred on the comments from the show and blog.
What do you think about this feud?
