Crystal announces that they will take over the SS United States.
Crystal announces that they will take over the SS United States.
I for one am happy that this ship of history is being saved by Crystal Cruise Line. NCL had looked into this years ago and did not go through with it. I am much happier that she goes to Crystal so the SSUS can keep her class and status of being the best of the best.
I will book a cruise on her when she is back into service.
I was thinking about this ship today and searched the history here first before posting a new thread.
Crystal Cruises backed out of their proposal to buy and restore SS United States to glory. What do you all think should be done now? I'd love to see the ship restored but doesn't look like it's going to happen. The ship looks worse each passing year. As terrible as it sounds I think they should give it up for scrap instead of letting it sit there rusting and rotting. Put it out of it's misery. Something should have been done a long time ago. I think it's too late now.
The story is from 2016. I'm pretty sure Crystal realized how expensive it would be to restore and stepped away from the table.

Yes I know. I was searching the history here and thought it interesting so brought it forward to discuss the current status. Doesn't look like anyone's interested though. No biggie.
Well shoot. That bubble burst before it got fully inflated.
If not Crystal, I hope that some other cruise line can save her.

this seems to be more of a real baseball thread, but I'll derail it by talking fantasy.
There is a team in my keeper league called Incredibly Taguchi. In the 7 years that this league has been going on, I have never beaten them in a head-2-head matchup. there have been two years that I won the league and they finnished near the bottom, still did not beat them. that comes down to 0-18 lifetime against them.
if there is such thing as a Horcrux, this is mine.
also, drew Butera.

The first few days of school went pretty well this week. I've definitely had worse starts to the school year, so I can't complain. This year, I tried a new tactic to begin my classes. Usually I do some type of getting to know the students exercises, which the students half-heartedly participate in. This year, I let them write down some stuff about themselves on an All About Me worksheet, and then, I made the rest of the class period about ME!
Well, sort of. What I did was a lesson called Look, Think, Ask. I brought in some important items from my house (a painting I painted, a silly hat I got on Beale St., an afghan that I crocheted for my grandmother before she died, a framed baby picture, and the race shirt I got from my first 5K). I told them that they needed to look at the items I was bringing out, think about questions to ask to find out more info about the items, and then raise their hands and ask the questions. This activity served two purposes. For them, it stressed critical thinking skills, and for me, it helped them see me in a different and more personal light. I think that if students can relate to you and see you not just as "teacher" but more as a human being, they will find it harder to be disrespectful or to act out in class. I hope this will make the first few weeks a smoother ride.
You know, work or other relationships might even benefit from the Look, Think, Ask activity if we only take the time to notice little things about those people and get to know them better by asking questions. After all, everyone likes talking about themselves, at least a little. I know there are certainly coworkers at my school that I haven't gotten to know very well, even though this is the fourth year that I've worked there. Maybe I'll mosey into some classrooms and see what i can Look, Think, and Ask about this year.

There are so many Kickstarters out there these days, that I'm pretty comfortable missing months at a time and not looking into the various things going on because I figure at any time, there will be more that are ongoing.
Another problem is lateness. The Tome of Horrors miniatures, officially licensed from +Frog God Games , is late and the communication has been bad. Others like Alien Assimilation are late but communication has been good and you get to see the work as it's coming.
Another problem is cash. With a new car, the funds have been tight. Anything that has too high a buy in is pretty much dead in the water to me. For example, Basius 2 looks awesome but man, the shipping and handling, and the fact that it's in British pounds? Nope.
I was fortunate in that a few of the Kickstarters I backed were awesome enough to give me a refund. Needed it too for things like down payment on the new car and various other assorted bills that tend to just pile up.
The last problem I'll mention, is stuff I know is coming. While who knows when Center Stage is going to be done, I'm pretty sure +Reaper Miniatures is going to be delivering Bones II real soon. I'm a backer of that and well, I haven't finished everything in the fist Kickstarter so I imagine I'll be buried in that strange Bones material soon.
On the other hand, I did put in for a book on miniature painting that comes with a few figures from Figone, the Figopedia.The guy doing it is a fantastic painter and if he can get some of that information into my small brain? That would be awesome. Even if not though, a few miniatures and some awesomely painted miniatures to peruse? Win!
Red Box Games by has done several Kickstarters. I had a bad experience, as everyone did, with the first one, but the second one was great. Picked up a lot of monsters. I skipped the others as they're character driven and his scale is more 'realistic' which means they look fantastic, but generally don't fit even with his other work by Reaper. However, his latest one may get bandits and as I've mentioned before, I'm not impressed with the current crop of bandit miniatures out there.
Dungeonmorph Dice? Awesome. Not too bad price wise either. I've got my eye on it.
Ancient Ruins II is a series of bases but man, between CoolMiniOrNot's recent bases and my old Happy Seppuku bases, I don't know. Prices aren't bad and I do like helping the 'little guy' so I'm going to try to get some money together for him. I've ordered from him in the past so I'm pretty sure it's going to be another quick turn around.
Strangely enough, I haven't backed a lot of role playing products lately. Between Pathfinder and 5th edition, I'm pretty set in terms of campaign setting and adventurers.
Not only that, but for whatever reason, the RPG ones tend to be just as bad if not often worse then the miniature ones in terms of dropping communication or just failing to deliver. Not saying they're all like that but man, when I look over the list of stuff I haven't backed and check on it to see if it's available now because it sounded interesting?
Throne of Night is way behind on some of it's deliveries, but it's had some stuff out?
The Reliquary looked to be a book of magic items. Looked pretty cool. Looked like something I could pick up when it was done. Wow. Still not done. Ugly stuff.
The Grand Temple of Jin: It sounded awesome but I had enough of mega-dungeons at that time. Still ongoing. Argh!
Southlands, now this one I'm 99.9% sure it's going to be out relatively on time. It hit when the funds were at an ultra low point though so as much as I wanted to, it had to go to the wayside. Their only behind one of the stretch goals for the previous KS I backed from them.
Anyone else backing anything awesome that the world needs to know about?

Diablo II is a game that has defined the whole action RPG hack slash dungeon crawler genre. Many people know of hack 'n slash games such as Titan Quest, Torchlight, Dungeon Siege, and the recent Path of Exile. All true fans of the genre know that Diablo is the king. Will it always maintain this status? With over 14 years since the game's release is it still fit for fighting? Or have the years relegated Diablo II to the trash bin?
Diablo II Review | Game Play
As it says on the tin, Diablo II is a hack-n-slash action RPG for up to eight players. The game revolves around completing a few large quests in each area (typically six quests in each Act), working your way through large dungeons, caves, open plains and jungles. They are filled to the brim with treasure and monsters. You pick one of seven classes (there are five in the base game, two more with the expansion). Each one has three talent trees to progress in. These talents can do anything from give you a new spell, improve your health and mana, or maybe even give a bonus to a previously learned spell. Because of the wide variety of classes and skill sets, it feels like there are well over 20 ways to play your own character! Each class feels very unique with their own interesting flavor. Necromancers can summon undead minions to aid them and curse their enemies. Druids can turn into werewolves and werebears, or use the elements to destroy their foes. Sorceresses can focus on Fire, Ice, or Lightning magic. Almost every sort of build is viable, and you can go into more than one talent tree to create an even more unique character, and that's not even considering equipment.
What is a hack 'n slash without loot, right? Diablo II is a game that does it excellently. Whenever you find an item magic quality or better, you have to use an Identify Scroll to see what their special qualities are. While this sounds like it can get annoying, it's actually quite the tiny thrill. You're always wondering what item you've found, if it's any good, and maybe if it's worth a lot of gold. You'll find yourself upgrading your equipment often in the early game. Each piece of new gear you equip makes you feel more powerful and really stronger. Equipment is not all you'll find though. There are Gems, Jewels, and Runes you can put in your gear to buff them up in various ways. There are even secret bonuses for using combinations of runes in your gear called runewords! There are even charms that, when identified, give you passive bonus as long as they are in your inventory.
Diablo II's game play is not perfect. It suffers from a few problems such as when, at times, you'll find yourself only using a few skills. Especially early on, you simply are clicking more than thinking. Later in the game, upgrades to equipment are few and far between–making progression feel much slower. The game also feels extremely easy at the start with randomly huge difficulty spikes. I am looking at you, Duriel. They will make it so any unprepared adventurer will die over and over again. These negatives hardly detract from the overall game. They can make a few areas rather annoying to slog through.
Diablo II Review | Graphics
Diablo II has a truly wonderful and gothic art style. Dungeons are filled with rotting skeletons, corpses, chains and torture devices that make the world dark. The game itself uses sprites, which is a catch 22. The sprites themselves never age poorly, and many of the environments look dark, twisted, and very detailed. However, some of the creatures can look a bit silly, or you'll be squinting to see what an object really is on some of the smaller sprites. Overall, Blizzard's decision to use sprites was a good one. Even now, some of the environments still impress me more than any 3D model.
Diablo II Review | Music
Diablo II has very dark music to go with its art-style and story. Many of the tracks are taken from Diablo I and remastered or redone to fit Diablo II, giving the game a very nostalgic and fun feel. I will admit that I don't often pay much attention to the music while fighting, but after you've killed dozens of creatures, the dark and moody music really helps to complete the scene.
Diablo II Review | Story
Keeping with the theme, Diablo II has a very gothic story. Taking place a year after the end of the first Diablo, an unnamed hero has defeated Diablo, absorbing his evil into his own body. Unfortunately, the evil has slowly corrupted him, making demons and other evils that have started leaking into the world once more. A group of adventurers, YOU, team up together to try and track down and defeat the wanderer, slay the demons, and try and bring peace to the world of Sanctuary.
Diablo's story revolves around a lot of themes: Good vs. Evil and Heaven vs. Hell. Your enemies are mostly demons, and you receive help from angels and the like. You even travel to hell at one point in the game. Overall, Diablo II's story takes a back seat to its game play, which is not bad at all. There are NPCs to speak to, and a real juicy story to be found if you put in a bit of effort to search for it. It's not necessary. If you just want to kill some bad dudes, feel free to skip through all the dialogue.
Diablo II Review | Closing Thoughts
Saying Diablo II still holds up is an understatement. It is still the king. Even if it's been on the throne for a long time, it doesn't look like it will give it up its title any time soon. The game play is fast, fun, and addictive. Collecting new loot and equipment is a blast. It sucks you in and won't let you go until you have the perfect character. Then you'll want to start all the way over as a new class. The game has a few minor issues. Trust me when I say you won't notice them after getting into the game.
- Addictive game play.
- Interesting story.
- Plenty of loot and equipment to get.
- Excellent dungeon design.
- Many different types of areas to explore in each act.
- Variety of classes and builds for them.
- Difficulty spikes- DAMN YOU, DURIEL!
- Slightly muddled sprites and dark contrast can make some things hard to see.
- Low amount of skill variety at low levels.
- Upgrading equipment begins to slow down at high levels.
Diablo II Review | Recommendations
Do you like Diablo II but have a craving for more hack slash goodness? You should definitely check out Torchlight II, Titan Quest, and Path of Exile (though the last one is online only). Diablo III does not impress me as much as Diablo II, but with the latest Diablo 3 Reaper of Souls expansion, I'd say it is worth a try.

The Big List Of Screenrecording Software (Linux Edition)
If you are looking for decent programs to record games you have come to the right place!
In case you are also looking for video editing software to trim, convert and edit your recording consider to check out The Big List Of Video Editors.
Note: I haven't tested these programs personally (except Krut because there is also a Windows port for it) but after a little research i noticed that the following programs were used and recommended by many Linux users.
I have also created a list about Screenrecorders for Windows and Mac.
"Krut is a screencast tool that is written in Java and well suited for making video tutorials (instructional videos) on most platforms. Krut records movie files, including sound, of selected parts of your screen. The files use the quicktime mov format. The program has an intuitive and compact user interface."
"recordMyDesktop is a desktop session recorder for that attemps to be easy to use, yet also effective at it's primary task.
As such, the program is separated in two parts; a simple command line tool that performs the basic tasks of capturing and encoding and an interface that exposes the program functionality in a usable way.
"GLC records OpenGL games = Linux alternative to Fraps"
"FFmpeg is a complete, cross-platform solution to record, convert and stream audio and video. It includes libavcodec – the leading audio/video codec library."
"Xvidcap is a tool that can capture movement on an X11 display. It works in two distinct modes: It can capture to single frames (like a number of jpeg images) or it can encode the captured frames to a video on-line."
"Kazam is a simple screen recording program that will capture the content of your screen and record a video file that can be played by any video player that supports VP8/WebM video format."

You won't find Rus Kappius scowling very often.
An engineer by trade, Kappius operates his small cycling company Kappius Components operates out of his garage, sourcing a few parts like 3D printed pawls that he can't make himself. Although his design has been scoffed at by some, including bigger companies, he labors on unperturbed, with a small but growing clientele serving as evangelists for his quick-engagement hubs.
Using carefully hollowed-out SRAM cassettes, the Kappius road and mountain bike hubs offer an abnormally wide bearing stance, near-instant pedaling engagement and a sobering pricetag of $1,000/£633 per hub set — plus $350/£222 to $400/£253 for a modified SRAM cassette.
Racing and building: Rus Kappius with his son, Brady, who is also an engineer
Living in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains just south of Golden, Kappius is never more than a few minutes away from the singletrack that keeps him cheerful, fit and inspired.
BikeRadar visited Kappius to talk about his craft.
What is the premise behind the Kappius hub and cassette design?
The Kappius hub came about in early 2008. I was installing my first SRAM PowerDome cassette and it hit me, "Why is that a big void under the cogs? That should be hub!"
From that point on I started getting very interested in hubs, as I immediately realized that modern designs were far from optimal. I sat down and sketched out what I thought was optimal. It looked very different from commercial offerings.
Throw in a few untimely hub failures and we get to where we are today.
I'm trying to maximize the enjoyment we get while cycling, because for all but the very select few, the amount of time we get to ride is less than we'd like. I want that time spent to be the best it can. For now that means better performing hubs that are simple, reliable and fast.
The Kappius wide hub concept, shown with a single pawl slid halfway into place
Your system has 1.5-degree engagement, right? How does that compare to other hubs on the market?
Yes, we have 1.5-degree engagement, or 240 points per rotation. As far as I know, we are the quickest of any pawl-based hub. Most hubs come in somewhere between 5-degree (Chris King) and 20-degree (DT-240) engagement angle.
When speaking about engagement angle, it's interesting that this subject didn't even capture my attention until I was well into designing hubs. I was much more interested in good bearing placement, optimal flange spacing, and simple designs. The quick engagement was almost a side effect of my work, which now is arguably the biggest selling point.
The 60-tooth drive ring works with 8 pawls for what Kappius calls 240-point engagement
Also interesting: cyclists in the old days (1970 & before) generally enjoyed faster engagement than current riders. That's because the introduction of the freehub in the 1980s brought with it slower engagement. Better bearing placement was possible, but the engagement system moved from the old external freewheel to inside the hub, and that ended up, in general, slowing down the engagement speed.
The holy grail of engagement is zero delay. I had a very well known large manufacturer tell me that "our engineers thought your engagement angle was too small." Say what? I don't tolerate a delay in the drivetrain in my car, why should I tolerate a delay on my bike?
When you use hubs with very quick engagement like the Kappius hub, you start to feel delays and "slop" in other parts of the drivetrain. Some day I'd like to fix those problems too.
The drive ring in place, ready for a Kappius cassette
When did you first start?
I first walked around Interbike with a Styrofoam model in September of 2009, trying to sell the concept. Boy was that interesting. The concept was easy enough to grasp, but the ramifications were a bit too much for most. For companies with a good chunk of market share I understand that it's hard to introduce these "dump the apple cart" changes. Since Kappius Components has about zero market share we don't carry that risk. We're hoping people understand our drive to make bikes better, and the Kappius Hub helps us do that.
Those 3D printed pawls, what was your cost on them again? $250 for one wheel's worth?
Yes, developing a new drive system is not a cheap undertaking. Using Digital Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) costs us about $250 per wheel to get the drives made. The good is that we can make small changes to the design without retooling costs, the bad is that it's not a cost that can come down with larger quantities. You have to change to a different technology. We're now getting to the volume of orders that we can investigate these alternative approaches.
We are continuing to refine the hub. We are using angular contact bearings from Enduro for 2013, and have increased our cogset ratios and offerings. We are compatible with SRAMs new XX1 11speeed 10-42. Without any change to the hub, a rider can use a SRAM 9 speed cog, a XX1 10 speed cog, or an 11 speed XX1 cog. Slip off, slip on.
Neodymium pawls are 3D printed. Note the embedded circular magnets that acts as springs
What else do you have in the works?
We have some other exciting things going on at Kappius Components but it's a bit too soon to talk about them. We'll give you the scoop as soon as we can.
Kappius Components exists because we believe that bikes aren't perfect, at least in how they are made. But they are the most beautiful form of transportation. Our work to refine them isn't done.

If you are
suffering from a yeast infection, it can be very uncomfortable and make you
feel under the weather. There are many
treatments that you can use to get rid of the problem but if you prefer to use
natural remedies instead of getting pills from your doctor, there are several
things that you can choose to do.
There are so many reasons people get candida and here are just a few ways to treat a yeast infection naturally. You can try them individually or in a combination to find out the best solution for you to get rid of candida and the yeast build up in your body.
- Increase your vitamin intake
- Echinacea
- Wheatgrass
- Mushrooms
- Licorice
Increase Your Vitamin Intake
A healthy
diet should always contain a good measure of vitamins and minerals. This is equally important if you are hoping
to cure your yeast infection. Good
natural sources that you could try are grapefruit seed extract and pine bark
extract. These are great ways to boost
your immune system.
has been used for decades as a herbal remedy for a whole host of maladies
ranging from colds, toothaches, bites and sore throats. Echinacea for candida can work to effectively halt the growth of
the yeast infection as it goes to work on your digestive tract.
is known as a superfood because it is very rich in natural vitamins, minerals
and amino acids. Taking a daily
wheatgrass shot is all you need to improve your immune system which will lead
to the curing of the infection. If you are interested in introducing wheatgrass
into your diet, you should consider the benefits of wheatgrass.
are a great ingredient to add to your meals but it has also been discovered
that they have been found to have a very positive medicinal effect on the
body. Mushrooms like shitake, and reishi
stimulate the inner workings of the digestive system. It is a very simple thing to incorporate into
your diet as it is very easy to source, to prepare and to eat.
Licorice has been used as a healing tonic by many tribes throughout the ages and within many different cultures. The reason that it is used in this way is because of its naturally anti inflammatory properties. This is part of the reason why is can be successful in the treatment of yeast infection.
These are just some of the ways to treat a yeast infection naturally. You can find many of these items if you do a quick search online or you can visit your local health food shop. It can be horrible if you suffer from candida, but you can improve your situation if you find out as much as you can about natural treatments.

Investors were rejoicing yesterday over Facebook's (NASDAQ:FB) new Home suite of apps and integrated features, sending shares up 3% after the announcement on the prospects of increased user engagement and eventually incremental ad revenue once ads are deployed.
Home integrates directly into select Google (NASDAQ:GOOGL) Android devices and will undermine some of the search giant's own services, even if they're still technically available. Even though Home will step on some of Big G's toes, the search giant maintained niceties following the event, saying Home is another example of continued innovation on the Android platform.
Oddly enough, another company wasn't too impressed and is trying to downplay the significance of Home: Facebook search partner and investor Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT).
On Microsoft's official blog, corporate communications exec Frank Shaw noted that Facebook's announcement bore an uncanny resemblance to the software giant's own Windows Phone pitch from 2011. Facebook positioned Home as a way to put people in front of apps, as opposed to the other way around.
That's an approach that Microsoft has been touting for years, since Windows Phone features a People Hub that is integrated directly with Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter. Shaw takes the opportunity to knock Android, saying the platform is already "complicated enough" (emphasis his) and that it has "sadly" always lacked a "People First" approach.
In that sense, Shaw understands why Facebook wants to launch Home, but also suggests that users looking for a "people-centric" phone just opt for the "real thing" and pick up a Windows Phone.
The move is curious considering that Facebook is ultimately much closer with Microsoft than it is with Google. Bing powers the search bar located on Facebook's site, and is also the driving force behind the social network's new Graph Search function.
Microsoft was also an early investor in Facebook, buying in for $240 million as early as 2007. Microsoft did unload 6.6 million Class B shares during Facebook's IPO last year, leaving it with 26.2 million shares and a 1.7% stake.
Why would Microsoft want to rain on its partner's parade?

No reviews or comments yet.
The proof of God's existence in book one caused the atheists to attack my first book for a year and a half. In 2009 the philosopher, Stephen Smith, agreed with my proof of God. Unfortunately, Amazon.com does not allow the authors to comment on comments.
When I concluded that God is one and, as Nicholas of Cusa says, God is the maximum and minimum, So I reject the belief that the universe is continuous forever and has no goal. So, I say that Jesus Christ is not God but that he was a great scientist. Thus, I wrote the second book and prove that God and the universe form a continuous world that never ends. In my third book, I learned that God creates coexistent concepts,
After my last book, in the last year and half, I have conducting more research on the work of God on the universes. One finding is the rebirth o humans after they die. Thus, nations and humans either will become equal or cause lots of wars, terrorism, and crime..

How Can I Stay Positive?
- Music is amazing for raising our vibration, our mood even when we don't feel well or positive.
- Force a smile on your face, it will immediately change the physiology in your body.
- Watch a silly movie that will make you laugh even when you don't feel like it, as laughter is an amazing healer.
- And KEY- Your environment & who you are surrounded by impacts you greatly.
- Another fun game is called the happy sticky notes game where you gather your friends & everyone writes happy words on sticky notes & then they put them all over you & you laugh together.
Silly, but it works!

And let's not forget everyone's favorite character, the Dowager Countess Violet, played by the incomparable Maggie Smith. She's one of my favorite scene stealers, and certainly the most interesting member of the family. It's also time to watch the household staff and the villains within (I'm looking at you O'Brien, and your little dog Thomas, too). I must admit, sometimes I miss scenes because I'm too busy studying the house and grounds. The architecture, décor, and pageantry of every meal are as compelling as the cast. Thank goodness for DVRs and the ability to quick rewind and freeze! Let's get comfy and get watching. The fun begins Sunday December 18th at 7:00.

I did it.
I actually survived training & I've got my own window, I can't believe it!
Now for a completely new kind of stress...not screwing up.
(no pressure)
I only helped 4 people cos it was late in the day when I actually got to set up my window but Monday I'll be in the hot seat.
(pray for me please, pray lots & pray hard)
It's pretty fun, I like talking to people & our townsfolk can be very interesting. Even more so because my coworkers have lived here a long time & we all know how small towns are...I'm learning all kinds of good stuff!
But only during lunch.
So we were planning on a quick trip to visit my sister this weekend. Adah & I need haircuts & my sis lives close enough that the cost of driving there is about equivalent to paying someone else to do it. Adah especially likes having her aunt do her hair - Margaret sprinkles glitter in the kids hair when she's done & Adah LOVES it. She totally gets her princess vibe goin' & checks herself out in every mirror in the salon - she's so funny!
Anyhoo, this time we planned on all of us going so the boys could hang out with their uber-cool tween'ish boy cousins (total hero worship goin' on there) & so we could go to church with Great Grandpa K Sunday morning.
Then Eli got a sore throat.
So we amended the plan to a girls trip.
Then Eli developed a magnetic attraction to mommy's lap & mommy's sick-child instincts kicked into high gear.
So we further amended the plan to a day trip Sunday, nixing the visit with Great Grandpa because we don't want to take the chance of making him sick.
Then Eli's eye got all pink & goobery.
The further, further amended plan is to take Eli to the urgent care clinic first thing in the morning (to get him diagnosed with pink-eye which I've had so many times I can diagnose it myself) & then Adah & I will make our trip to get new do's & have some girl-time with auntie M and (hopefully) make it back before dinner.
I wonder what surprise we shall discover in the morning...

SK5739 : Castle Lock, Nottingham Canal
taken 4 years ago, near to Nottingham, Great Britain
This is 1 of 2 images, with title Castle Lock, Nottingham Canal in this square
Nottingham Canal
The Nottingham Canal was 14.7 miles long from Langley Mill to the River Trent in Nottingham. William Jessop was appointed in 1791 to survey the Canal but most of the work was done by James Green. The canal was put before Parliament in 1792 and Benjamin Outram made engineer under Jessop who had to give up the post as Chief Engineer before completion due to illness. The canal opened in 1796 after many difficulties at a cost of £43,500, twice the estimate. From the 1840s after the arrival of the railways the canal declined and was abandoned altogether in 1936 by the then owners Great Northern Railway Co. The section between the Trent and Lenton was passed to Trent Navigation Company at this time. Most of the canal was built over from 1955 but the section from Derby Road to Lenton Chain was re-used as a new course for the River Leen and so is still in water and remains in use as part of the Beeston and Nottingham Canal that allows boats to navigate past the shallow water on the Trent at Clifton Bridge and the weir at Beeston.

We are so sorry to be the bearer of bad news for all the Caramilk fans of Australia.
Following extensive supply issues, thanks a recall involving plastic being put in some bars, Cadbury have now STOPPED producing everyone's favourite limited edition chocolate.
In a post promoting their new 'Dark Milk with Mint', the Aussies kicked up a fuss, asking where this joyous product could be found.. Cadbury's response?
''Cadbury Caramilk is a special edition and we are no longer making it. Stores have taken delivery of the remaining stock, so we expect it will start appearing on shelves.''
So, we guess that's it.. once it has gone. It's gone.
BUT there may be some hope amongst the sadness... In New Zealand, when they stopped making Caramilk, the Kiwi's got so angry and signed many petitions and the good folks at Cadbury BROUGHT IT BACK.
Someone start a petition now and our names will be on there within seconds.
RIP (for now) Caramilk.

Content delivery networks (CDNs) make sites faster. Front-end optimization (FEO) solutions like the ones we develop at Strangeloop make sites faster. But in our industry, there's very little talk about the dynamic between CDNs and FEO. This morning, I had a great opportunity to talk about this at the 2012 Content Delivery Summit.
If you've ever looked for hard data about the combined benefits of a CDN+FEO solution, you'll be interested in the slides from my session. It includes a case study that clearly shows the acceleration gains using just a CDN, then the additional gains of adding FEO to the mix:
As I mentioned in my talk, this year is going to mark a lot of major innovation in desktop and mobile acceleration, including aggressive advances in CDN and FEO technology. A few other trends I've noticed from the trenches:
- 200+ of the top ecommerce sites have been running automated FEO for two or more years.
- 5 out of 10 internet retailers have an automated FEO strategy and plan to implement it in 2012.
- FEO-accelerated sites are 30-50% faster than non-FEO sites.
- CDNs are increasing their MRR with customers by 40-50% on top of existing acceleration solutions like DSA.
Many thinks to Dan Rayburn, who organized the summit and invited me to speak. It was a great opportunity to speak with a new audience, alongside an excellent roster of speakers.

Ibori's confession is the work of God—DPP Chieftain
By Jon Egie
A Chieftain of the Democratic People's Party (DPP) in Ughelli has described the recent confession of former Governor James Ibori as the act of God.
The DPP Chieftain who pleaded anonymity for fear of being victimized said the plea of guilt by Chief James Ibori before the Southwark Crown Court, London is God's own making "because no matter how long one hides a lie, it will surely come out one day. Only the truth can vindicate one, you cannot live under a lie for long" he said.
Ahead of the forth coming local polls in Delta state, the DPP Leader who is also aspiring for an elective position cautioned PDP members to learn a lesson from the Ibori's saga by making effort to live on the right path with God.
He said the huge amount of money involved as loot by James Ibori, a DPP led administration in Delta state would have been able to transform the lives of Deltans and put in place enviable infrastructure and other social amenities.
"If DPP were in government, the money would have been used for Deltans very well. It is obvious that the show of shame performed by Ibori is a tradition of the PDP led administration across the country. The people have never supported the PDP governments in all tiers so this news is a catalyst for the electorate to hate them more because they have never been given the chance to vote and when they do, their votes do not count"
Based on the plea of guilt by Ibori, the DPP chieftain called on the electorate to come en masse, whenever the local polls are held and do what they did in the last general election by voting out the PDP and voting for the right candidates as well as defend their votes so that their mandates will not be stolen by "this wicked and greedy people"
Asked for his position on the on going calls for a pardon for Ibori, he retorted, "On what ground should Ibori be pardoned? This is a fight against corruption; you can see how our judiciary messed up the whole thing by acquitting a man who stole. The court in the UK actually vindicated Nigerians. It is a lesson for our politicians that public office is not to enrich oneself.
"Sentencing him is punitive and would serve as a deterrent to other politicians who may love to fiddle with public funds. Ibori's case shows that he can never change in his life. Jailing him is the best option for him and he will serve as an example to all who perpetuate such crimes.

Graduating from Navy Officer Candidate School (02:16)
At OCS graduation, newly appointed Navy ensigns accept a salute from their class drill instructor and chief petty officer and give them a traditional silver dollar. Both acts are a symbol of the accomplishment of graduating from OCS and being prepared to lead as a Navy officer.

Voice Over: Finally, after weeks of stress, challenge and perhaps even a fleeting moment or two or personal doubt, the candidate officers are ready for their own graduation. Friends and family members arrive to take part in the graduation festivities that include a night of celebration on graduation eve.
After an impressive ceremony, these new Navy ensigns must perform their first official act as a Navy officer. Each officer approaches his or her class drill instructor and class chief petty officer, and accepts a salute from each. In turn, the new ensign presents each with the traditional show of respect and honor, a new silver dollar. Both the salute and the coin are important symbols of your accomplishments at OCS.
But the memories of this experience will last a lifetime. You will find even the toughest moments will soon become favorite stories to share with fellow officers. The long hours and hard work have changed you. The world you face is one full of possibilities, and you are prepared as never before to meet whatever challenge awaits. OCS was just the beginning. Because of the dedicated efforts of your candidate officers, Marine drill instructors, class chief petty officers, and class officers, you are now ready to join the Navy Marine Corps team.
Speaker 1: I will tell you that I have been out in the fleet for a good eight years. I have not come across anyone better than an OCS graduate.
Chief Petty Officer Dawn Calhoun: I have never had a rewarding job like I have here at Officer Candidate School. I get to see these kids come in straight off the streets, and then to watch them transform into a model sailor is rewarding. Their behavior, the way they walk, talk, and interact with people. I got goose bumps. I just don't know how to describe it. It's -- I would work with any one of these candidates any day. I'll just put it that way.
Voice Over: You will be tested, and you will succeed. You have been taught by the best, and you are prepared to lead. You are a Navy officer.closeX

R-R-R-REEEEMIX… ing Beer with Liquor
I remember fondly the first time I used beer as a mixer. Okay, that's a lie, but I do believe it was three or four years ago and it involved vodka, Milwaukee's Best, and a desire to be classy enough for cocktails, but not classy enough for anything that remotely resembled a cocktail (Though I'm sure there was a whole lot of fondness going on). Philistine as my attempts have been — from "vodkabeer" to sake bombs and all the way to my love affair with a little thing called Whiskaliburr – beer cocktails need not always conjure thoughts of binge drinking, poor choices, and puke. On the contrary, they can be artisanal, technical, and — most surprisingly — enjoyable! In fact, on January 3rd, with the very mission of spreading this message, http://beermixology.com/, went live. A collaboration between a number of mixologists and beer academics, the website aims to share… Read More »
Seven Drinks I've Made that You Probably Have No Interest in Trying
I consider myself a novice mixologist. Of course, by "noviceâ€Â, I mean "terribleâ€Â, and by "mixologistâ€Â, I mean "person to make your next drinkâ€Â. This is because of my sense of adventure and complete disregard for recipes. For all the bad, hurtful things you can say about my creations, though, I've never made one I didn't finish myself. So for your reading pleasure, here are seven of my worst: 1. Beer 'n Wine – Great as a corner store. Terrible as a drink. And just in case you're giving me the benefit of the doubt, you shouldn't. This was no Black Velvet (A take on the Black and Tan that replaces the pale ale with champagne). We're talking one part light beer, one part red wine, two parts grossest vom I've ever had. 2. Whiskey Monster – Ooh! This sounds like a fun drink, or at least creatively named! A… Read More »
double-oh Cocktails – shaken, not stirred
What's James Bond's favorite drink? C'mon, say it with me: Vodka martini. Shaken, not stirred. That line is so famous one could be forgiven for thinking that the world's best known employee of MI-6 drinks nothing else. Not so. Try 28 other drinks slurped up by Jimmy B. and the girls throughout 23 films. So, why are we talking about this? Well, now there's an app for that. The Bond Mixology covers them all with recipes, descriptions of the movies and even scenes that feature the drinks. It also provides a shopping list and serving instructions. If you're into apps, Bond films and cocktails, this is definitely the thing for you. Happy mixing!

Two new disgusting ways to drink
My grocery store sells peeled boiled eggs. I was stunned when I came across these little jewels of ridiculousness and had to inspect them. They come two to a pack and are wrapped in plastic, which means that you have to exert roughly the same amount of effort in getting them out of the plastic wrap as you would have in peeling your own boiled eggs. I would never buy these – I refuse to pay someone to peel an egg – but, I love that I live in a universe where they exist. It's just some how wonderful for me. To balance that feeling out, I hate that I live in a universe where these two products exist: Cupcake Vodka and Whipped Lightning. It doesn't take much to explain them. The vodka comes in five cupcake flavors. (We'll set aside for the moment that there really isn't such a… Read More »
Romancing the Booze – Cocktails
There's nothing like a well mixed cocktail to create a memorable evening. If you're planning an elegant meal or just a quiet evening at home with your lover this Valentine's Day, cocktails are your key for making an impression. The great thing about mixed drinks is that you can create any flavor or experience that you want. From fruity drinks to dark, decadent libations, cocktails have it all. And talk about elegance! A well made cocktail makes for an impressive presentation. One thing, especially for the newbie, if you decide that you're going to take the evening in this direction makes sure that you know beforehand what drinks you plan to make. Read the recipes carefully and be certain that you understand them; maybe even take a couple of dry (well, wet) runs before. You don't want your drinks to fall flat. Okay, so what cocktails to make? Whenever I… Read More »
Loving the Shandy
I seem to become more liberal all the time in my acceptance of what beer can be. There was a time when I wouldn't have even considered mixing beer with anything else. Even the black and tan seemed a little wrong. I had this idea that what one found in the bottle or the keg was what the brewer intended and who where we to tinker with that? But that was then and this is now. Now that the summer heat is upon us, I find myself digging on the shandy this year. It started when I grudgingly picked up a sixer of Leinenkugel's Shandy at a local convenience store. I wanted a new beer but their selection was rather limited and I didn't feel like driving across town to the good beer store. The shandy was the only one of the lot that I hadn't tried. So I took… Read More »
Egg Nog
Let's talk egg nog. This perennial holiday favorite is as important to the season as a Christmas tree to some. My wife is particularly fond of the stuff and bottles of the premade variety become fixtures in our refrigerator sometime in mid-November. I've always been a why-buy-it-when-I-can-make-it kind of guy but I couldn't keep up with demand so I save the homemade nog for special occasions. Here's a good basic recipe for 10 or 15 servings depending on what you call a serving: You'll need -6 separated eggs -half cup sugar – the finer the better, confectioners sugar works well -salt -two tablespoons vanilla -two cups booze – brandy and whiskey are popular choices but use what you want -one cup milk -nutmeg, to taste Combine the egg yolks, half of the sugar, nutmeg and vanilla in a good sized bowl. Add a pinch of salt and beat the mixture… Read More »

We've all been there. You've been out for a few hours. You had dinner with wine or a beer; maybe even a cocktail or two. After that you stop at a club and have a few more.

Before you start
Make sure your test fabric has been backed with interfacing. You will get a much better result from doing this and even the 1911 book recommends a backing fabric.
Using your automatic patternsI had a look at doing this a while ago on my 320K2 and it seemed to do a really nice job. Things I learned about embroidering on 1950s machines are:
1. Zig-zag is useful when creating a really thick line.
2. So is built-in patterns and pattern cams.
3. So is your machine's ability to do a really short stitch.
4. If you don't have a machine with cams, you really only need zig-zag. You can move the lever as it sews to make just about any pattern.
I have to say that my Pfaffs have been extraordinarily good at all of this, particularly at achieving a very small and accurate stitch length. The idea with all of this is to use the machine to do most of the work. Break the picture you want to make into patterns covered by your machine's cams then just go for it.
The Necchi Supernova is really unbelievably good at patterns, since it will go backwards to achieve the pattern you want. First time I saw the Necchi do this my jaw dropped. It was like an electronic machine, except totally mechanical and 60 years old. What a machine! I just have to fix mine and I'll be happier to experiment some more (transformer blew up).
Using free motion on a straight stitching machineThis needs to be explained first. Free motion refers to placing the work in an embroidery hoop, Removing your machine's presser foot so there isn't one there at all, and sewing slowly while moving the hoop to make the pattern in one hand while using the other hand to press down the fabric right next to the needle.
This technique is described in the Singer embroidery book of 1911 (no longer in copyright so go for it) and it specifically mentions models 66, 15 and 27. It's pretty much accepted that machines with drop in bobbins (the 66) are less satisfactory doing this due to the 90 degree turn the bobbin thread needs to make, leading to loose threads. I haven't experienced this at all and don't have a spare 66 to test, just quoting what I've read on various forums.
I tried this on a 319K (not a straight stitcher and a vertical bobbin machine) and the results were 'mixed'. Stitching in the normal direction worked beautifully, but when I attempted to go any other direction, the thread wouldn't catch. Here is the best I could do with the 319K (the word 'Mike'):
Another problem I had was forgetting to put the presser bar lever down before sewing. The lack of a foot makes it easy to overlook, and if you do the bottom threads will be extremely loopy (because there's no tension at all on the top). Also on the 319, the feed dog was dropped.
The word 'Audrey' was done on my 1891 VS2 ('vibrating' bullet shuttle) and with this machine the feed dog doesn't drop so it needs to be covered (the feed dog interferes with the fabric movement). Any vintage buttonholer will have an appropriate plate, so screw this in place before starting.
I was surprised that the 1891 machine performed so much better than the 1950s vertical bobbin, but it definitely did, so I'll leave the green machine for automatic patterns and the VS2 for free motion work. The VS2 had no trouble at all with anything I tried and didn't skip a single stitch in any direction. I tested both of these machines by sewing a circle and the VS2 did it beautifully.
There are a lot of good instructions in the book, so if you like an older machine, this is for you. I'll be playing a lot more with it in the near future.

Hemingway Lives on! Let us create 10 words or fewer. December 14, 2011 - December 31, 2011
Reading and Deliberating
Hemingway wrote one of the most interesting and thought-provoking short stories in 6 words, as we all know so well! I want to find someone out there who can completely baffle me, or make me cry, or just twirl my mind into a knot, with only 10 words or fewer.
Think you're up for it? Let us join Hemingway, and explain entire lives and memories in the most simplistic and provocative form.
Ready, set, go.
If I can get all submissions before New Year's, that would make my life! Then I'll award the most thought-provoking and mind-baffling writers!
Here's one I thought of, just to poke some creativity:
"I wish only to see the world without ambivalent eyes."
Best of luck to all the great writers!
My heart. My mind. My utter respect.
The most thought-provoking/heart-wrenching story.
Twirled my mind into a little knot!
Kept me up all night in thought.
Made me wonder, and wonder.
A beautiful work!
Very well done!

Contribution of unit test code for a number of components --------------------------------------------------------- Key: HARMONY-57 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HARMONY-57 Project: Harmony Type: Test Components: Contributions Environment: All Reporter: George Harley Zip file containing JUnit tests for the following Harmony components : * archive * luni * nio_char * text The contents of this zip have been laid out with the current classlib directory structure of the Apache Harmony SVN repository in mind. A version of enhanced/classlib/trunk/make/build-java.xml is included containing new Ant targets to compile and run the tests. Some of the tests depend on the availablity of additional resources (text files, jars, etc). These resources are included in the zip along with configuration instructions. A small number of the 3000+ test cases are known to fail when run against a built Harmony. The identities of these tests, plus some additional information on them have been listed in the file <ZIP_EXTRACT_DIR>/Harmony/Harmony_Tests/src/test/resources/config/jcltest-excludes.xml . This file can be used during the running of the tests to purposely exclude the set of known failures. Information on how this is accomplished is also included. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira

Yahoo and Google have drastically scaled back the scope of their search advertising deal, a person close to the discussions said on Monday, in a last-ditch effort to win U.S. antitrust approval.
The move comes after Google appeared to be on the verge of walking away from the partnership, which was announced in June to foil Microsoft's takeover attempt of Yahoo. The deal has since drawn scrutiny from U.S. regulators amid a growing chorus of criticism from advertisers.
The two Internet companies have submitted a reworked proposal to the U.S. Department of Justice that shortens their partnership to just two years from 10 years, the source said.
The revised deal also caps the percentage of search revenue that Yahoo can collect from Google at no more than 25 percent, and lets Google advertisers opt out of being placed on Yahoo, the source said.
Yahoo spokeswoman Tracy Schmaler said in an emailed statement the company continues to work with the Justice Department and discussions are ongoing.
Google spokesman Adam Kovacevich declined to discuss the details of the process.
Analysts said the new terms could help the deal get past regulators, but questioned whether such a limited partnership would be financially lucrative to Yahoo, which is a distant No. 2 to Google in the web search market.
Mukul Krishna, digital media global director at consulting firm Frost and Sullivan, described the revised terms as "more of a Band-Aid than the extensive surgery that is needed" for Yahoo.
"This sweetens the deal to go through antitrust red flags and gives (Yahoo CEO) Jerry (Yang) some breathing space, but how much money it would add to Yahoo's top line would be very crucial," Krishna said. "And it doesn't answer the question, what after two years?"
Mark May, an analyst with Needham & Co, said Yahoo's willingness to limit the scope of the deal "tells us that other alternatives are either not available or not attractive at all."

This post is going to be a bunch of random thoughts. I have so much in my head and not an easy way to get it all out, my head is pretty much unorganized at the moment. Due partly to PMS I suppose, AF is due any day now.
I can't believe our six month angelversary is fast approaching.
I miss my girls, a whole lot, that is obvious. Throughout each day, the delivery part of our story comes to visit my thoughts. I do not know why I cannot get this to stop from entering my mind so much. I want to write it down, I know it will help, but I also know its still too painful to write. In the same breath, I feel more a peace with knowing the girls are in Heaven and playing in the clouds with other angels, with the saying I have heard many times that they were "too beautiful for earth". I recently was also told another saying that felt very comforting, that I should believe that God will return the children he has called away from us someday. I think we are deserving of that, at the least. We are good people, and we will appreciate any blessing that falls into our lives.
I had a shrink appointment last night, she feels I am doing much better, and we talked about TTC again. She stayed mostly neutral about it, but knows that I know the difference now that if we try again, that I will not be replacing the girls, we will be adding to the family. Honestly I have felt like that for quite some time now, it just took a while to talk about it in therapy. With that said, I have made a new blog that I have not yet opened to anyone yet. I will eventually. It's going to be for the next IVF attempt we go on, and my thoughts and feelings on it. I did not think it would be what I wanted to talk about on this site, where I am (mostly) trying to honor our angel girls, but the occassional post (such as this) comes out. So I think I need a separate place for the rants I may have! I will keep everyone posted when I open it if you are interested in following it. I feel like I need to keep alot of this to myself for now.
Our 4th wedding anniversary is coming up on 9-17 and we are trying to do something special for ourselves. We were trying to plan a honeymoon that we never got to take, but we are going to have to postpone it once again. We will still do something special, just not the honeymoon we wanted...definitely in another couple years! I cant believe September is already around the corner, this year has flown by.
Last but certainly not least, I am asking for prayers for my sister in law. She is going to be having brain surgery to remove a non-cancerous tumor that keeps growing. Her surgery is 9/16 and she can use all of the support she can get. I know my angels will protect her and watch over her, as she was there for them the entire delivery and watched over them and took care of them.
Love and light to everyone. Nan xo

Frequently Asked Questions About Perimeter Security
On this page we address some of the most common questions people ask about our perimeter detection and intruder deterrent products. If you have any other questions please contact us and we will be pleased to help.
FLEXIGUARD™ Perimeter Detection System
What type of fence can be protected?
Most types of metal fence, chainlink, weldmesh, palisade expamet.
What is the maximum zone length?
300m. This includes any feeder cable.
What height of fence can be protected with one sensor cable?
One sensor cable can protect a fence up to a height of 3m.
Can a fence higher than 3m be protected?
Yes. Use two sensor cables, one near the bottom of the fence and one near the top.
What are the power requirements for the analyser?
The analysers work with a voltage range of 15-21V DC at 25mA.
Can the sensor cable be joined if cut?
Yes. Use the FS-420 joint box to repair the cable.
Can any joint box be used to repair the cable?
No. You can only use the FS-420 joint box as this is a special box with an internal graphite coating and conductive gasket used for screening.
I need to protect gates in the fence. How can this be done?
Gates can be protected by fixing the sensor cable to the gates using FS-460/461 gate loops. Read more about electric fence gates.
What type of cable do I use to connect the analysers to the control unit?
Use twisted pair telephone cable.
What about operating in extreme temperatures?
Our security systems can still operate efficiently in unusually cold or high temperatures.
To combat cold temperatures we can make a special adaptation whereby electric heaters are fitted into the enclosures.
To combat high temperatures coolers and sun shields can be fitted. A good example of this is one of our installations perimeter security in the Middle East where Peltier coolers were fitted.
ELECTRO-FENCE™ Perimeter Detection System
What voltage is on the fence?
There is a maximum voltage of 10kv. This is pulsed once per second.
Is it safe?
Yes. The Electro-fence is manufactured and installed in accordance with the British and European standards.
Can I put Electro-fence on top of a wall?
Yes you can, provided it is at least 1.8m from the ground.
What height is the Electro-Fence?
The electro-fence should be behind a fence of at least 1.8m high and extend 600mm above it to stop climb over.
Is it expensive to run?
No. Each controller uses less than 20 watts of power i.e. one-third of a 60w light bulb.
Can I install it myself?
Electrified fences can only be installed by trained and accredited installation companies.
What happens when it rains?
All the insulators have water barriers so rain does not effect the system. Read more about our electric fence insulators.
Can I have my trees and shrubs close to the fence?
There should be at least 1m clearance from any object to the fence.
Where can I find archived information?
Our perimeter security blog has a wealth of articles from 2007.

MMR vaccine linked to lower risk of serious infections
The MMR vaccine, which protects against measles, mumps and rubella, may also protect against other serious infections, Medical Daily reported.
In a study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, researchers tracked the immunization rates of nearly half a million Danish children born between 1996 and 2006.
The recommended vaccine schedule includes an MMR shot at 15 months, shots for diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, polio, and Haemophilus influenzae type b (DTaP-IPV-Hib) administered at three, five and 12 months.
Researchers found that on-time administration of the MMR vaccine after the DTaP-IPV-Hib shot corresponded to a lower risk of hospital admission for general infections – especially for lower respiratory tract infections and complications requiring longer hospitalizations.
"MMR may have a general immune stimulating effect preventing hospital admissions for unrelated infections," lead author Dr. Signe Sørup wrote in an email to Medical Daily. "It highlights the importance of receiving the MMR vaccine on time."
While some parents worry about vaccines, lowered use of the MMR vaccine can potentially lead to new outbreaks of the infection, the study's authors pointed out.
"Our study suggests that parents should be very happy with MMR, because it reduces a lot more severe infections than just measles, mumps and rubella," Sørup said.

I'm Making It Work
Posted August 11, 2011on:
Social maturity is variable but parental guidance can constructively shape and drive it. My son has been on Facebook since 10, I am an active friend and monitor, and we talk about what is being posted including comments and photos, etc. He has to take down anything I overrule, but always in the context of a discussion about "why" so that he develops better judgement, discernment and (hopefully!) taste.
He is also limited to amount of Facebook time, and only after homework or chores are finished and lots of daily exercise and activity has occurred. I don't see FB as any different than anything else that requires me to live up to my role as an active mother engaged every day in helping my child grow up over time to be a socially responsible, fun and good human being.
It's much better to know your child's password and observe them online than to say "No internet for you" and have them sneak around you. And they will sneak around you. My niece joined Facebook when she was eleven, lying and saying her age was thirteen. Rather than report her, and have her simply make another account with a false name that I couldn't track, I added her and kept an eye on what she did. This is my niece, mind you, not my own child.
Children do what they want. Being honest with them, and giving them logical reasons for your actions, and the actions you expect of them is much more effective than trying to completely control what they do, with no regard to how they feel, while repeating "I'm the adult, I'm right." In their minds, if what you do makes them unhappy, than you can't be right. Things like that are going to decrease the amount of respect they have for you, and the amount of credence they give to what you say. Of course, you are the parent. You're free to screw your child up anyway you like.
