Reducing Stress
Post date: Oct 9, 2014 5:08:05 PM
Dear Members and Friends of the Church of the Holy Communion:
I feel especially happy when September rolls around and I don't have to worry about teaching anymore. Even though I loved my students and all the excitement of taking them into various hospital settings, every year I would experience knots in my stomach as I stressed out about having all my classes perfectly prepared. I never really paid attention to learning some simple stress reducers. Perhaps now would be a good time to try one or more of the following "Top Five Stress Reducers" recommended by the Mayo Clinic in the Fall 2013 edition of Hometown Health.
Try The Following…
1. Get moving: Any kind of activity relieves stress by releasing endorphins.
Walking, gardening, biking, house cleaning, etc. make you feel good and help you focus your mind.
2. Focus on the moment: Five-minute meditation sessions can help.
With your eyes closed, focus on inhaling, exhaling and
releasing stress. This can make a difference in a hectic day.
3. Let it out: Express yourself to let stress out.
Write in a journal or share your feelings with a trusted friend. Social
interaction helps provide support and distraction at the same time.
4. Catch some zzz's: Sleep gives your body and mind a chance to recharge.
Make the effort to get seven to eight hours of sleep a night.
5. Lose yourself in music: Listening to music or playing an instrument helps
manage stress by reducing stress hormones and muscle tension,
as well as providing mental distraction.
Add to the stress reducers the following adage by Julie Fuimano, author of the life manual and confidence builder, The Journey Called YOU: A Roadmap to Self-Discovery and Acceptance.
"If you rush through life, you avoid being yourself. Give yourself permission to be a human being rather than a human doing. Give yourself time to reflect and experience your feelings. When you have time to breathe and reflect, you let the creative juices flow and you are able to synthesize the information and ideas that surface. You're also able to recognize issues that need your attention. When we are too busy doing, there is no time to consider the possibilities."
With love and care, Judy Gardner, Parish Nurse September, 2014

Queen Victoria Chairs. These gorgeous chairs are named after Queen Victoria, who was the ultimate trendsetter of a lavish white wedding gown and white wedding. Though Victoria was not the first to wear white, she is, however, known to have worn the wedding gown that "started it all". She chose a cream-colored satin gown, in a time where wearing white was highly uncommon. Commenting on Victoria's choice for white, the Godey's Lady's Book wrote, "Custom has decided, from the earliest ages, that white is the most fitting hue, whatever may be the material. It is an emblem of the purity and innocence of girlhood, and the unsullied heart she now yields to the chosen one." All we have to say is thank you, Queen Victoria! These chairs are a shimmery-cream silk to resemble the "dream dress" and perfectly compliment any blissful white wedding. Perfect for wedding decor display or as "His & Her" banquet chairs. Circa 1960. 25″ Width x 30″ Height.
Rental Price
$55 per chair (2 chairs available)
"My dearest dearest dear Albert sat on a footstool by my side, and his excessive love and affection gave me feelings of heavenly love and happiness, I never could have hoped to have felt before! He clasped me in his arms, and we kissed each other again and again! His beauty, his sweetness, and gentleness, -really, how can I ever be thankful enough to have such a husband! To be called by names of tenderness, I have never yet heard used to me before – was bliss beyond belief! Oh! This was the happiest day of my life! May God help me to do my duty as I ought and be worthy of such blessings."
An excerpt from the journal of Queen Victoria about her wedding night

If flag B is stuck at low, it means that the Data has not been read by the Host PC. One common reason why this occurs often could be that FX3 has gone into low power mode.
The PC might force FX3 to go to low power mode because of which data in FX3's DMA will be left unread.
Can you please call CyU3PUsbLPMDisable () API after the CyU3PConnectState API and check?

Fitness - many visualise it as a final state. I like to call it a process driven by thought and awareness.
After childbirth, I have had issues with physical fitness. For 2 years, I spent my nights and days time being tired and enduring muscle pains.
Not one day, I woke up without one part of my body or the other hurting and not one evening I went to bed without tossing and turning, trying to adjust this muscle or that so I wake up fresh and rested. One day, after my vacation at my brother and sister-in-law's place, I saw some women in my society doing yoga in the multipurpose hall. Overcoming my inhibitions for the first time in my life, thanks to that educational trip, I enrolled. The teacher, who is now a friend, told me that initial days of yoga will cause body aches, but, in my case, the aches were no worse than my regular aches and pains. As I continued with exercise and yoga, my body pains went down until one day I woke up with no pains at all and all this in less than two months. Weight loss is a different ball game altogether. In the following paragraphs, I will share what I learned in this short span of 4 months doing yoga three times a week.
Yoga starts with toning your muscles. You will see instantaneous change in your figure. Your body weight may or may not go down. Body weight is not always the outcome of gluttony or careless eating. For many women after childbirth, it is a result of physiological changes. I wanted to say hormones but truth be told, I never really understood hormones. So, let us just say, to those of you who haven't lost weight even while being careful with food, it is not entirely your fault. Your best bet is to see a gynecologist. Having said that, if you are a man reading this post, I am sorry man, I can't help you, yet!
Not having lost any weight with just three-days-a-week yoga, I decided to lend a helping hand and started using the stationary cycle at the gym. I am on a break right now because of influenza-induced weakness, but will start again next week. I could bicycle for 20 minutes without fatigue at a random pace and come back home feeling light. That is where I heard from the gym instructor that Yoga is just for flexibility and not for strength. Strength comes from sweating it out. Suffice it to say, the statement made by the instructor is not true. Yoga builds muscles, strengthens internal body organs, helps stabilize breathing and increases metabolism. I won't take sides arguing yoga is better and gym is bad. I, quite honestly, believe each practice has its pros and cons and each individual must choose what suits his or her lifestyle and physical body needs best. Having said that, one must experiment with all that is available and feasible. In my yoga class, our teacher stresses on posture. When I was at the gym cycling, I caught myself looking in the mirror and adjusting my back and legs to fit in an imaginary box. In the class though, I never understood what she meant. Now, thanks to that mirror and my body's response to what that mirror reflected, I understand better what my teacher means and I strive better.
When we start on a certain regimen, it is easy to lose track because it is still not a part of our lifestyle. We miss classes because of other higher priority activities like work, children, getting dinner or breakfast on the table on time. The key is to not fall back but to march again like a tired solider back to class or the gym even after missing for two weeks straight, or in my case missing gym 4 weeks due to my son's flu, my menses and my flu.
Another important lesson I learned is to never ignore your body. No aches and pains are arbitrary. It does not mean thar your mind is rationalising your lazy intent to get out of work. My constant body aches were perhaps a result of improper body posture and lack of regular and regulated exercise. I used to have muscle cramps in the calves in my sleep. They first started when I was 17 or 18 (during my cousin's wedding). We all thought it was because of tiresomeness. And they occurred every time I exerted myself at functions or at work. The frequency increased after marriage but I never saw a doctor. After I started going to yoga, I started getting cramps in weird places like my hip, and the inside of my throat. I was scared! So, I went off to see a GP and the cause was a deficiency of Vitamin D3 and B12. One blood test and 14 years of suffering ended! Well, not quite. I am still careful while doing new poses or twisting poses in class and take D3 and B12 supplements.
In conclusion, work out, try different approaches, listen to your body and stay happy.

It's via traveling that heat, true and genuine friendship and brotherhood might be shaped. Travel The nurse isn't allowed to settle down in anybody location for an extended period of time, which is the draw back to this profession.

Personal Teaching Statement
I have a professional background in American Ethnic literatures, postcolonial theory, and contemporary fiction. These days, I especially enjoy teaching Honors seminars, children's literature, and all forms of speculative writing–especially literary slipstream (which I also author). I regularly advise Honors theses too. But whatever the topic, my courses invariably insist upon the profound value of both intellectual curiosity and imagination. Curiosity, because we are here less to demonstrate what we know than to discover and value what we don't. And imagination because, without it, empathy, innovation, and joy flounder. I also aim to approach teaching with the attitude of a public servant. To my students, my colleagues: tu eres mi otro yo–you are my other self. In giving to the community, I help create a space in which I too can flourish.

Important Question: Does System Restore Recover Deleted Files?
Is Your System Setup for System Restore?
The main goal of a system is restoring you computer to a previous state before it started showing blue screens or error messages. A powerful tool removes programs that don't play well with the computer, and this is the most powerful. You can go back days, weeks, months or years before it occurred. It also brings back files that were previously deleted.
- Stop using the computer. If you use the computer after deletion, it has a greater chance of being overwritten. Immediately be on the hunt to restore files.
- Make sure system restore is on. It can't restore your system when it's turned off. System restore naturally creates restore points so you don't have to. Set it to remember dates far back by increasing the storage or keep only recent files by decreasing the storage. System restore points that are turned on after the file has been deleted will not be able to retrieve that file. You will have to use third-party software or the recycle bin to recover it.
- Retrieving a file has different steps than a full on system restore. Go to computer or my computer and find the folder where the file was previously stored. Right click the folder and select 'properties.' Choose "previous versions." Another option would be to right click and select 'restore previous versions.' Look at the restore points and find your file. If you cannot browse the restore points for files, you can restore a previous folder. Click restore, and it should be in that folder.
- If it does not work there's a similar program preinstalled on your computer called File History. Also called Time Machine or Backup & Restore, this does bring your file back to you form a previous state. The problem? It won't work if you don't turn it on.
System restore should be treated as a last resort. There is a limit to how many times your computer will restore itself before it stops restoring. Contact us for more information on how to turn back time with system restore.

This weekend has mostly been about having a terrible cold, complete with whole-body aches, and doing lots of packing. Interspersed with Thorntons' white chocolate teddy bears, who say "Ouch!" every time you take a bite (well, that might have been me saying that, but it wasn't half funny...).

Because of this, your body will certainly be worn out and not be able to be up to par and obtain the high level you need for the next workout. That is a good enough reason for you to check out the P90X recovery formula plan.

18 States
Faithful readers of Chetan Bhagat, on reading the title, will undoubtedly be reminded of his latest bestseller. They will therefore be wondering how Lefty managed to get involved with not one, but at least 17 members of the fairer sex to have attempted this post. Rest assured, the post is not about my romantic escapades, or their lack thereof. Similarly, readers with a scientific bent of mind might be wondering whether I have done what mankind can only dream of, and moved far beyond ionized gas in the search for new states of matter. Worry not, for I shall most certainly ask a girl out before discovering a new state of matter. Political commentators will by now have counted all new-state movements, even including those that have yet to reach infancy, and realized that the number still doesn't reach 18. But most importantly, all you normal folks out there would now be mentally shouting at me to stop cracking my demented jokes and get to the point. Which I will. In the para after the next.
Having completed my first, and to many the most difficult year of a management programme, I decided to take a well-deserved break, along with 5 other of my friends. We chose our destination as Sikkim- publicized as the Ultimate Tourism Destination. Uncharacteristically, the Sikkim tourism people are dead on target with their tagline. Sikkim's beauty is beyond description. Unlike many other hill-stations in India, it is still relatively untouched. Gangtok might be like any other big hill-city, but as you go further north, the raw beauty of Sikkim hits you. There are snow covered peaks which glance over powerful rugged terrain, barely tamed by man. Yet nestled right between these brutal mountains are the most serene of lakes. It is said that not even a leaf is able to cause a ripple in these calm waters. Lachung, in the lesser Himalayas, is called by the locals as a second Switzerland. If you're lucky, you can even catch a glimpse of the Kanchenjunga, the third highest mountain in the world. Even Gangtok, despite being a city, has one amazing market street. Boasting of a quaint cobbled road, it is closed to traffic and offers all material pleasures that man can dream of at 10,000 feet. All in all, a very big reason of why India is Incredible India.
As we were nearing the check post that separates Sikkim from West Bengal, I started a mental count of the number of states in India that I had visited. As of 2.00 am, 24th March 2010, the count stands at 18 out of 28. Of course, a new state might be formed by the time this post is published, in which case the count would be suitably modified. At this point, I must clarify what a visit constitutes. Mere passing through a state by train or road does not make a visit. However, visiting at least one town/city and staying there for at least a night does. That being clear, let me list out the lucky (or unlucky?) 18, in the order of first visited.
1. Bihar, 1987: On 21st July, Lefty was born and Bihar was the state that obliged. From her, I've inherited my remarkable intelligence, and to quote the citation that I received from my school, my "ready smile and witty repartee". Thank you.
2. Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Karnataka, 1989: Union Bank of India is easily the best bank in the world. It has an LTC system that allows my family to visit all kind of awesome places, within India as well as abroad. The great South India trip was when the 4 of us availed it first. Naturally, I remember nothing of the great trip, but my parent's tales and the ample photographs have made it very dear to me. 19 years later, in late 2008, I would visit Chennai and thus TN once more.
5. Uttar Pradesh, 1991: I'll have to confirm this with my mother, but I think we visited Allahabad in 1991. My Mausi, who later would become famous as The Mausi, was posted there. A visit to the Sangam is something that I recall. Otherwise, there are always photographs. Incidentally, UP is also the state which now holds my permanent address and in which I've visited the maximum number of towns/cities.
6. Jharkhand, 1992: To be fair, Jharkhand was not really a state then. But we did go to Jamshedpur to visit Chacha. Fun time with cousins.
7. West Bengal, 1992: First of many fond visits to Calcutta. Sadly, we did not go to Tangra then. But I do remember the fluffy double omelet's that the cook at Mama's used to make. Read- The quest endeth for vivid descriptions of later sojourns. And keep visiting this page once in a while for even more anecdotes from the City of Joy.
8. Rajasthan and Gujarat, 1993: Second LTC. Unlike the first, this trip is well-remembered. Jaipur, Jodhpur, Chittorgarh, Udaipur, Ajmer, Pushkar, Bikaner, Jaisalmer- we covered them all. There were forts and palaces galore. There was also the ship of the desert and the Palace on Wheels. Gujarat boasted of the Gir Forest and the lions there. We also visited Porbandar, Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar, apart from making a trip to Diu. 17 years later, I would return to Gujarat for a fun weekend of catching up with old friends, eating gujju food and some amazing quizzing.
10. Orissa and Andhra Pradesh, 1997: Third LTC. This trip saw us visiting Jaggannath Puri, Konark, Cuttack, Nandankanan sanctuary and the Chilka Lake in Orissa and Hyderabad and its near bouts in Andhra. The Salar-Jung museum and the Hyderabadi Biryani were what particularly stood out there.
12. Haryana, 2001: Cousin's wedding in Delhi. We were put up at Surajkand, and what a wonderful 3 days they were. Madcap times with cousins and a wonderful wedding to boot. Little did we know then, that less than 3 months from then, we would have been transferred to Delhi, and a new chapter in our lives was going to begin.
13. Punjab and Himachal Pradesh, 2001: Family trip to Kasauli. Via Chandigarh, Pinjore gardens etc. Trip famous for Ramit's- When will we reach Kasauti Zindagi Ki (Pardon the single K's)? Later, Punjab (Amritsar and Wagah Border) was also the destination of choice for our famous Elder's trip.
15. Uttarakhand, 2002: Summer holidays at Mussourie. Sadly, we'd chosen the peak season to go, so the beauty of Mussourie was not really discovered. Ramit's "hero bhi darpok se darta hai" made this particular trip immortal. And of course, I was to later spend 4 of the best years of my life at Roorkee sweet Roorkee.
16. Maharashtra, 2006: My first visit to the other big city in India. Short but eminently sweet 1-day trip. In the 4 years that have followed, I have visited Bombay 3 more times, and it can be said that each trip has been better than the last. Aamby Valley and Nihilanth are some of the fondest memories that I have of the city, apart from the good times with cousins, and I have a feeling there are many more to follow.
17. Goa, 2009: The English language is yet to come up with a word that can describe a Goa trip with the best of friends.
18. Sikkim, 2010: If I were singing, the appropriate line would be, which brings us back to Do-o-o.
As of now, the 7 sisters remain, along with the central 2- MP and Chattisgarh and J&K. I'm hoping to cover all 28 before I turn 28. That should be a fair deadline. In the event of more states being created, the deadline will be extended accordingly.
With each visit to each new state, I've come to appreciate the vastness, beauty and the cliched diversity that is India. There have been enthralling new customs, captivating stories that form the local folklore and examples of development driven by both intelligence and diligence. With each new visit, I've caught snippets of new languages, tried new food, been awed by new sights and more often than not, touched by the kindness of new people. And with each new visit, the immense pride that I have in being an Indian has only multiplied manifold.
That's all I had to state.

Plans announced for huge windfarm off Anglesey
Credit: Published by: Geraint Jones | North Wales Chronicle | www.northwaleschronicle.co.uk 16 July 2012 ~~
Plans to build a giant windfarm off the coast of Anglesey have been unveiled.
Centrica Renewable Energy (CREL) and DONG Energy Power have submitted initial proposals for up to 440 turbines around 9 miles off the coast of Anglesey to the UK government's National Infrastructure Planning agency.
The Rhiannon Wind Farm would generate up to 2.2 gigawatts of electricity.
The location of the onshore infrastructure, such as the substation and onshore cable route(s), is yet to be determined, although the application states that the connection to the national network will be on Anglesey.
Rhiannon Wind Farm is one of a dozen sites around Britain where offshore windfarms could be built in the next 10 years.
Application for the onshore infrastructure will be made to the Welsh Government and Anglesey Council.

Dropped Audio Frames
Greetings everyone!
Please excuse this question if its been asked before but I have searched high and low for a solution to this problem. I've created a video montage of stills with a musical audio track added using a wav file. The file is rendered to a DV file but when I try to send the file back to my DV camcorder I get a singular dropped frame that re-occurs without and specific frequency. Sometimes its occurrence is once in a 7-minute period sometime its as high as 5 times in that same period.
I can duplicate the same effect if, while sending the file back to the camera, I click on the start button in windows XP. I have tried several software programs, MSP 6.0, VSP 5.0, VSP 6.0, Premier 6.0, arcsoft show biz - and all show the same problem. I have even switched cameras swapping my rendering camera a Sony 103 D8 camera for my Sony vx2000 and the same result. I even moved my hard drive to another computer with the same effect.
I have even tried re-rendering the file and used a freshly formatted Maxtor 7200rmp 40-gig drive with only the source file on it. Still I get at least one dropped frame.
My system specs are follows:
Primary Hard Drive 40 gig Maxtor 7200rpm 100 ATA rpm drive
DV drive 80 gig Maxtor 7200rpm 100 ATA drive
Backup Dive 30 Gig 7200rpm 66 Ata Drive
512 MB DDR memory
ADS Pyro fire wire card
Sony TRV103/Sony DV2000 cameras
Any help here will be met with lifelong gratitude.

Hi Patrick,
<<warning! kind of a long post!>>
Are you running any other software or services in the background such as a virus scanner?
Video editing is very processor-intensive. Every single service you may have running in the background takes valuable time slices away from your editing software.
As a result, sometimes errors can occur during the rendering process as different services interact with the CPU.
Here are some suggestions that I recommend to customers during my tech support calls that may also help you.
First, I note that you are using a separate hard-drive for video. Good idea. Additionally, that drive should ideally be on an IDE channel other than your primary boot-drive.
The reason is that whenever Windows XP needs to write to, or read from the swap file, it has to stop whatever it was doing on the hard-drive to complete the write/read function. This can (and usually does) interrupt the data stream out of the IEEE-1394 port.
If you are using a second hard-drive on a different channel, this should eliminate a possible source of the problem, as Windows will keep streaming on the second drive while writing on the first.
Second, How large is the cache on your hard drive? Generally, the larger the hardware cache on the drive, the better. Most, but not all hard drives out there today under 40gb usually have only 2mb of cache. If you decide to purchase a hard-drive, try to get one with 8mb of cache. The cache works as a temporary first-in-first-out buffer-- i.e., when the drive sends data, it fills the cache first then streams the data from the cache, allowing the drive time to do other tasks without interrupting the data stream.
If the drive has to stop sending data for a second to take care of housekeeping tasks or thermal calibration, the cache will continue streaming data to the 1394 port without a glitch-inducing interruption. The larger the cache-the more time the drive has to pick up where it left off.
Here is an additional idea to try... Barring a hardware problem or somthing else I'm missing, this usually fixes dropped video and audio frames in about 80% of the situations I have encountered:
Before doing this procedure, be sure to close all open programs, because a reboot will be required afterwards:
On the task bar, click <START> ----> <RUN>, and type "msconfig" (without quotes) in the textbox and click <OK>.
Then, follow this procedure in order:
At the top of the menubox, click on the "startup" tab.
Click on <Disable All>. (dont worry, they can be re-enabled later)
Next, click on the "services" tab.
Check the box "Hide All Microsoft Services".
Click on "Disable All".
Click "OK"
A message will appear: "You must restart your computer for some of the changes made by System Configuration to take effect"
Click "Restart"
The system will reboot.
When the system boots back up, a message will appear about the System Configuration. Click though this message, but do not restart the system. Click on "Exit Without Restart" instead.
You will now be at the Windows XP desktop. There should now be no software or services running in the background to interfere with the rendering or transfer process.
If this fixes the problem, then you can start selectively re-enabling services and start-up items one at a time until the problem happens again. That way you will know which software item or service is causing the problem.
If have other hardware in your system that is not essential to NLE, you can also make a hardware boot profile to selectively disable unneeded hardware at boot, thereby possibly freeing up additional resources as well. If you have no success and want to try that, let me know and I'll write up a procedure for that as well.
Sorry everyone for the long post, I do have a tendancy to be long-winded!
I hope this helps, let me know your results!
i don't see a network card listed - but if you have one disable it when you transfer to tape ...
do you have VIA chip set ? make sure you have newest chip set drivers ...
That may be a long post but it's incredibly useful! I've had a few problems from time to time and I think I'll bookmark your post for future reference :)
All I can say is:
Its been almost 4 months that Ive been having this problem and I've tried one or more of those corrections individually, but never could put together a way to get all those background applications to shut down.
I think the advise about moving the DV drive to a different IDE cable was the most significant improvement.
Im eternally thankful for your advice.
Aw, shucks... glad to help.
donatello has a good point as well though. If your system is on a network, (even on a cable modem or DSL modem via a network card) it's also a good idea to temporarily disable the network card in your device manager while editing or capturing and re-enabling it afterwards.
Network cards and the associated drivers/services can be resource hogs as well.
Good luck!
I'll add that to my pre-Export -back-to camera list of things to do.
Master/Slave for second drive?
Thanks for the advice on this Phil. I am sure it is helping a lot of people.
I am now looking at adding a second 80MB drive to my Dell Dimension 8200. The first one is configured as the master on one channel. The second channel has a DVD drive and a CD-RW drive.
If I understand correctly, I need to move either the DVD or CD-R to the same channel as the HD that is already there. I would then attach the new one to the second channel. If some distant memory serves, PCs don't like having two master HDs, so I need the new one to be the slave on the second channel.
Is the above correct?
Does it make any difference where I put the CD-R and DVD drives?
Harder question:
While I understand the theory of using a dedicated HD for video, would using Striping not be even better, now that I will have two disks?
Acceleration tip:
If you are running an Intel chip set, don't miss this at:
Haven't had a frame drop since installing it, though that was only yesterday...
All this will become more complex soon. I have my eye on one of the new external HP DVD 300e writers, which work at 4x speed and have Firewire and USB2 connectors. Seems more flexible that replacing the internal CDR drive....
If you're using MSP 6.0, make sure that when you render your completed file, you go to the video settings tab, click on the audio tab and select "48,000" as your quality level. My MSP 6.0 came defaulted at "42,000" which is not compatable with DV.
Good luck!
IDE Configuration not that simple - according to Pinnacle
Pinnacle makes different recommendations on the configuration of a second drive for video work.... I have copied and pasted this from their FAQ.
I am using a separate physical IDE drive for video work. How should I set it up in relation to my other IDE devices?
The general rule is that an IDE bus will run at the speed of the slowest device on the controller. Thus, if you put a high-speed hard drive on the same IDE controller as a CD-ROM or Zip drive (which are "slow" devices), the hard drive will run very slowly. It does not matter which device is Master and which one is Slave. With this in mind, note the following examples:
1. If you have one medium-speed OS hard drive, one high-speed video hard drive and one CD-ROM drive, you should put the CD-ROM as Slave on the primary IDE controller and the video drive alone on the secondary IDE controller.
2. If you have one high-speed OS hard drive, one high-speed video hard drive and two CD-ROM drives (or one CD-ROM and some other removable media device like a CD-R or Zip Drive), you should put the CD-ROM drives together on the secondary IDE controller, and Slave the video drive to the OS drive on the primary IDE controller.
3. If you have one medium-speed OS hard drive, one high-speed video hard drive and two CD-ROM drives (or one CD-ROM and some other removable media device like a CD-R or Zip Drive), you should use the same configuration as in Example 2, because even though the video drive cannot run at full performance because it is slaved to a slow OS hard drive, it will still do better than it would if it were on the same IDE controller as a removable media drive like a CD-ROM.

Gaming Contracts
Contracts of this description are declared to be null and void by an act passed during the present reign [of Queen Victoria] (8 & 9 Vict. c. 109. p. 18). Notwithstanding this act it was held that a betting agent who had paid the amount due by his principal on the loss of a bet was entitled to recover the same from the latter (Read v. Anderson, 10 Queen's Bench Division 100; 13 Queen's Bench Division 779), but this indirect recognition of betting transactions has lately been set aside by the Gaming Act of 1892, which enacts that no action shall be brought to recover any sum of money paid in respect of any gaming or wagering contract. The subject of gaming contracts has recently been discussed with reference to the 'missing word competitions' organized by certain newspapers, which were held to be illegal, as the result did not depend on skill and judgement but upon mere chance (Barclay v. Pearson (1893), 2 Chancery 154). The principle of the statute against gaming and wagering contracts was, to a certain extent, already recognized by the statute of 14 Geo. III. c. 48, which forbids the insurance of a life in which the insurer has no interest, and which is still in force.

When you're trying to run 64-bit hosts inside a virtualized ESXi host you may get the following error.
The virtual machine requires hardware features that are unsupported or disabled on the target host: * Longmode: required for 64-bit guest OS support. On Intel systems, longmode requires VT-x to be enabled in the BIOS. On nested virtual ESX hosts, longmode support normally requires upgrading your VM to ESX 5.1 compatibility level (VM version 9) and enabling the "Virtualized Hardware Virtualization" flag on the outer VM. For incompatibilities other than NX/XD or longmode: if possible, use a cluster with Enhanced vMotion Compatibility (EVC) enabled; see KB article 1003212.
Even though the processor mode is set to Intel VT-x or AMD-V
This is quite simple to fix, you just need to enable nested virtual machines by adding the following line to your ESXi virtual machines .vmx file
vhv.enable = "TRUE"
More information can be found in this article.

Consider the following conundrum.
The NHS is a universal public service, funded out of general taxation, which is designed to provide help to people at times when they are unable to do so themselves. It is enormously popular with the public, so much so that it has been said to be the closest thing Britain has to a national religion.
The welfare state is a universal public service, funded out of general taxation, which is designed to help people at times when they unable to do so themselves. According to the latest British Social Attitudes Survey support for spending on the welfare state is in long term decline, and sympathy for its recipients is in very short supply.
Why the difference?
People say that you can't help getting ill, but you can get 'on your bike' and find work if you are unemployed, implying that unemployment is basically voluntary. If you think this, you must also believe that the huge rise in unemployment at the end of 2008 was due to millions of people simultaneously deciding to enjoy more leisure time. As Joe Stiglitz has pointed out, the Jarrow Crusade was not a hiking holiday, people are made unemployed by economic changes they cannot control. They have the same moral right to state help as people who get sick, so why does the public dislike welfare?
Rather than blame media representations of benefit recipients, I would suggest that the answer lays in the fact that the welfare state in its current form does not help the majority of people who have to pay for it. At the moment, if you lose your job and you have savings, the state will not help you, even if you have been paying in to the system all your life. This is the inherent problem of universal 'safety net' provision. The level below which the state will not allow a person to fall is too low to be acceptable to people higher up the income scale, yet an extravagantly generous level would make work pointless (and be ruinously expensive for the state).
In the end, asking the working population to continually pay in to a system that does nothing for them is politically unsustainable. They will eventually vote for a party which will dismantle the system. A state run welfare system must have the support of both its recipients and those who fund it. How could this be achieved?
Frank Field MP has spent his entire career thinking about these problems. His answer is to make the welfare system contributory, which basically means that the more you pay in the more you get out. A summary of his argument can be found here. To fund such a scheme, Field has in the past suggested pooling National Insurance contributions in to a state run investment fund (effectively a United Kingdom sovereign wealth fund). With the economic situation as grim as it is, it is perhaps time to consider radical solutions like this one. The alternative seems to be a gradual withering away of the welfare state.

Evening is the Whole Day by Preeta Samarasan
Preeta Samarasan's debut novel Evening is the Whole Day is set in Malaysia—where she was born and raised before moving to the United States when she was a teenager—and traces the story of the Rajasekharans, an Indian immigrant family grappling with its troubled past as the country they have made their home is slipping into chaos. It is also a painstakingly detailed portrait of the post-colonial history of a society where Indian immigrants, Malays and Chinese are jostling to claim their legitimate space.
In the Rajasekharan household, matters come to a boil with the abrupt dismissal of Chellam, the "rubber plantation servant girl". Her departure haunts six-year-old Aasha, youngest member of the family, whose mind is a whorl of questions about Chellam's dismissal, her grandmother's mysterious death, the strained relationship between her parents, her elder sister Uma's sullen silences and her imminent departure to America. All these stirrings in the adult world impact her deeply; answers are hard to come by. But Aasha questions them with the unadulterated curiosity of childhood.
Aasha's father, Rajasekharan, nurtures political ambitions. As he makes his way up the rungs of the political hierarchy, the narrative shines a spotlight on the race and class divisions that eat into the vitals of Malaysian society like a canker. Samarasan paints a scathing portrait of the creme-de-la-creme set who wines and dines their evenings away as the country implodes. Her descriptions of the hypocritical elite are delightfully ironic: with a keen eye for detail, she captures the lilt of their conversations and the trajectory of their thoughts.
The novel offers the reader a rich mix of the personal and the political and Samarasan is in her element when she places intimate relations under the scanner, charting a map of the human heart. Siblings battle it out, burdened by secrets hidden away in their shared past. Spouses flail in troubled waters, overwhelmed by the distances that separate them. Mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law lash out at each other, defeated by their frustrated lives. Parents and children are bound, as they are separated, by the tapestry of secrets and lies that they weave into their lives.
But Samarasan can stray into the dangerous territory of the ornate: "�her heart hammering like a wedding drum, elemental words blistering her tongue like beads of hot oil." Adjectives are packed sky high: where one will do, there are often two or more. Seemingly channeling Rushdie and Roy, Samarasan's pages are heaped with generous dollops of linguistic tics: inexplicable capital letters ('Big House,' 'Slippery Slope') and italics as common as mushrooms after a shower. It would be unfortunate if post-colonial literature came to be identified with these jaded gymnastics.

Authorities are investigating the spree as a hate crime
A man suspected of shooting three people to death in downtown Fresno, Calif., on Tuesday had expressed his dislike of white people, police said, and authorities are investigating the matter as a hate crime, not a terrorist attack.
The suspected shooter, identified as Kori Ali Muhammad, 39 years old, is in custody. Police said he yelled "Allahu akbar," Arabic for "God is great," as he was being arrested.

Question: I want to know the way of dialogue or words which must I say when I'm with my girlfriend to make them trust me and love me?
Dear Reader,
Have you ever heard the phrase "Talk is cheap"? Like most things in life, this wisdom is both true and not so true.
On the one hand, building love and trust requires more than an exchange of pretty words. It requires action. Following through on promises, showing up when you say you will and demonstrations of generosity are keystones to creating a loving bond.
On the other hand, love cannot be built without forging pathways of verbal communication. A recent article in the New York Times by Mandy Len Catron, discussed a curious experiment conducted by psychologist Arthur Aron. (http://www.nytimes.com/2015/01/11/fashion/modern-love-to-fall-in-love-with-anyone-do-this.html) Two total strangers were brought together in a laboratory room and prompted to ask each other specific, personal questions about their hopes and heartaches, fears and families. Each partner was required to answer authentically and listen without judgment. Just frrom this intimate exchange, love blossomed between the participants. The couple ended up married six months later.
So perhaps talk is actually priceless.
In order to cover all your bases, we suggest a two-pronged approach with your girlfriend.
First, action. You must BE and BEHAVE trustworthy and lovingly. So start by checking in with yourself. Are your intentions with your girlfriend genuine? Do you regularly tell her the truth? Do you do what you say you will do? Do you act with kindness?
Second, communication. A common complaint amongst us women is that men don't actually listen---they try to fix. Sometimes women just want to talk. They're not looking for a solution to a problem, they just want to be heard. So if she's discussing aspects of the anxiety she felt at her co-workers party last night, do your best to just be present with her story. Refrain from offering helpful suggestions unless she asks for them. Responding with phrases such as "That seems really hard" or "Wow, it sounds like you handled that really well" will let her know that you are hearing her, without judging her experience or jumping to your own conclusions.
Next, tune in to her energy and ask specific questions. Feel out if she seems upbeat, contemplative or down. Then openly share your perceptions and inquire. For instance, "Sweetheart, it's wonderful to see you so bright and joyful today! What's making you so happy?" Or, "Honey, I sense that you are deep in thought. Are you processing something important? Would you like to share?" Or, "Babe, you seem kinda sad. I'd love to hear what's going on. Wanna talk about it?"
This shows that you see her and you care about what you see.
Don't be afraid to discuss "deep" topics. Many of us believe that asking our partners about failures, breakups, traumas, family dysfunctions, fears and insecurities is NOT OKAY. Who would want to discuss such "downer" topics? In our opinion, we all do, especially with our loved ones. Yes our shadow sides and dark pasts are not the easiest to reveal. But the bottom line is that we all want to be accepted for our whole selves. Showing your girlfriend that you accept all parts of her—good, bad, ugly, hideous, wounded, and gracious—means that she is safe in your presence. From here true love can grow. Ask to see her whole self by asking questions that reveal more than what is considered presentable, nice, socially acceptable dinner conversation.
And never forget compliments. A genuine exclamation of your enthusiasm for her is always welcome. Regularly acknowledge what you find special/awesome/beautiful about your girl. Tell her "You are just so gorgeous in that sundress!" Or, "I love hearing you talk about astrophysics, tell me more!" Or, "No one makes a lemon pie like you girl, it's just divine!"
Lastly, always encourage her to pursue her highest calling. If she has mentioned being entranced with Peruvian knitting techniques, encourage her to take a class. If she's admitted her secret urge to try portrait drawing, get her a set of artist chalk for her birthday. Energetically and verbally support her expansion and growth. We love the people who help us continue to love ourselves and love our lives. Be that person to her.
Good luck and stay in touch!
xoxo Ariel & Simone

Rhoda Mary (Leonard) Clynes, 90, of East Hampton and formerly of Southington, widow of James J. Clynes, died peacefully on Wednesday Oct. 4 at Apple Rehab of Cromwell.
Born May 20, 1927 in New Britain, she was the daughter of the late Raymond F. and Agnes (Schussler) Leonard. Rhoda grew up in New Britain and was a graduate of New Britain High School. She married James Clynes in April 1949. They moved to Southington in 1958 where they raised their family. Rhoda was an employee of South End Elementary School in Southington where she enjoyed working as a secretary, assisting not only the teachers but also becoming a friendly face to the many children who attended the school. Following her retirement in 1982 from South End School, Rhoda continued her work at St. Dominic School and actively volunteered her time at Bradley Memorial Hospital. In1992 they relocated to East Hampton, CT where she and her loving husband of 67 years enjoyed countless hours looking over Lake Pocotopaug from their front porch.
Her most enjoyable moments were on Sunday when her family joined them for an afternoon of swimming, boating and family dinners. Winters were spent in South Pasadena, FL, where, although she missed her children, she and her husband developed many special, lasting friendships at the Causeway Village.
Rhoda was a communicant of St. Patrick Church in East Hampton, and a member of the Ladies Guild. She lived a fulfilling life but her most special attributes were how she cared for and interacted with her children, eagerly partaking in activities with them even if it involved learning how to snow ski, sail, golf or water ski. As long as she was with family, she was happy.
Rhoda is survived by her son James W. Clynes and his wife Lisa of Southington, a daughter Nancy Ninesling and her husband David of East Hampton, a sister-in-law Margie Clynes of Ponte Verde Beach, FL, six grandchildren Ryan and wife Kait, Kacie, Zach, A.J., K.J., and Alyssa and two great grandchildren Taylor and Bentley.
She was predeceased by her brother Raymond Leonard and her sister Rita Urban.
Friends may call at the Spencer Funeral Home 112 Main St. East Hampton on Monday Oct. 9th from 5:00PM until 7:00PM. A Funeral Liturgy will be celebrated on Tuesday Oct. 10th at 9:30AM in St. Patrick Church in East Hampton. Burial will follow in St. Patrick Cemetery.

Poker group looking for fresh faces (Bangalore)
Hi all,
This is an appeal to anyone interested in joining a poker group which has been active in Bangalore for the last 7 years or so. Due to the recent departure of several long time players we are looking for some new regulars. The game runs as follows:
- Every week on Thursday 8pm, usually runs to 11.30pm or so. Texas Hold'm tournament style.
- We play at the last week's winner's house. Host provides food (typically pizza but home-cooked food is not unheard of) and drink for the night from the previous week's buy-in.
- Location: anywhere in Bangalore depending on where the previous week's winner lives. Typically Indiranagar, MG Road Area, Whitefield but Hebbal and Koramangala also used to be regular locations.
- Max 14 people per week, at the moment we have ~10 regulars and ~10 occasionals. It is a diverse group (gender, nationality, age, occupation) so anyone is welcome (especially couples as this means two regulars!).
- Preference for those staying in Bangalore a bit longer and can play on a regular basis so we can rebuild some continuity.
- No experience required. We follow the rules but most have learned "on the job".
If you are interested just reply to the post and I can give you more details.

As always, Memorial Day weekend is a celebratory start to the summer season, with many excellent traditions in Colchester. And from this point forward, the activities only pick up steam, taking us straight into the fall and the annual 57 Fest.
As always, Memorial Day weekend is a celebratory start to the summer season, with many excellent traditions in Colchester. And from this point forward, the activities only pick up steam, taking us straight into the fall and the annual 57 Fest.
Of course, the primary event of this weekend honors the reason for the holiday: The Memorial Day parade. Coordinated by a team of dedicated volunteers on behalf of the town, the parade draws large crowds to remember those who sacrificed their lives for us to be able to enjoy all that America has to offer. Numerous organizations develop impressive floats and march to show their support and respect.
You won't want to miss this year's parade, which is themed: "Colchester Remembers and Honors Its Citizens Who Fought In The Revolutionary War." It starts at 12:30 p.m. at William J. Johnson Middle School before heading to the center of town and looping around the Town Green.
Of course, the fun starts earlier that morning with the Lions Club's annual Memorial Day Breakfast, where they serve up the food from 7 a.m. to 11 a.m., followed by a lunch menu at 11:30. The Lions Club gets no time to rest, however, as they soon begin setting up for the carnival, which transforms the green into a wonderland for the following Wednesday through Saturday.
Memorial Day weekend also serves as the traditional opening of the Recplex Spray Park, everyone's favorite part of the park. Kids and adults can enjoy the variety of water features, which randomly turn on and off throughout the 10-minute cycles. To activate the system, simply lay your hand on top of the blue post at the entrance to the park, and enjoy. The Spray Park is open, free of charge, every day from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. So grab your bathing suit and join in the fun.
Just two weeks later, the Town Green is once again the center of action as the site for the Colchester Business Association's Tag Sale on the Green.
Hundreds of vendors and local business, and thousands of attendees, turn out for this festive event. Stop by between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. June 13 and enjoy the food, crafts, art, entertainment and more.
The following Wednesday evening, the monthly "Cruise to the Green" events continue, presented by the Good Times Motoring Club. The wide variety of model year 1985 and older cars are sure to impress. These are held the third Thursday of each month through September, with the fourth Thursday as the rain date.
On July 11, the 2010 Summer Concerts on the Green sponsored by Rockville Bank make their debut. With another incredible line-up of entertainers each week through Aug. 15, you won't want to miss a single one. You can view the entire schedule on our website at www.colchesterct.gov/concerts.
The Colchester Historical Society returns to the green on July 23 and 24 for its Festival on the Green. Art, crafts and food will fill the days, with many wonderful treasures to be discovered.
Get wild
Wondering "Where the Wild Things Are?" They'll be at the Town Green Aug. 13, as CASTLE Kids and Colchester Parks & Recreation team up to show this fun family movie on the big screen, beginning at dusk. Bring your chairs and blankets and enjoy a movie under the stars.
On Sept. 25, the sixth annual Colchester 57 Fest will be back and better than ever, with an expanded focus on health, wellness and the environment.
The incredible fireworks display is preceded by a day of family-friendly activities, entertainment and a food court featuring many healthy options.
Of course, these are a few of the events taking place throughout the coming season. Be sure to check out the latest issue of the "Colchester Connection" in today's paper for a great deal more. But pace yourself. We're just getting started.

After prompting by a therapist, some McMartin children said they had been molested by actor Chuck Norris and had seen people fly around the room. These statements should have cast doubt on their other statements (produced by leading questions by therapists who assumed from the start that molestation had taken place), but they did not. It was the most expensive trial in California history, and some of the defendants spent years in jail awaiting trial, but it was ultimately determined that the accusations contained no truth whatsoever.
People believe things that don't make sense and that we know are not true. People used to believe that the sun went around the earth. Some people believe they were kidnapped by witches or aliens and subject to sexual molestation.
These things don't make sense. Yet people believe them.
It doesn't make sense that my sister believes that her teeth-grinding is proof of a repressed oral sexual assault. I grind my teeth too, and I was never molested. The same is true of millions of other Americans...

The last few weeks saw a very slow storm front moving across the eastern states of Australia.
Dominated by an intense low pressure system, a vast amount of rain fell from northern
Queensland to Victoria.
Queensland to Victoria.
This map from the Bureau of Meteorology illustrates the situation as the system left the coast.
Along with the rain came wild seas with just under 6 metre swells.
A short vid of the action that pounded the shores is below, though fails to
capture the immensity of those massive waves.
Some flooding was experienced here, though nothing of the order in other areas.
A few pics to give an idea follow.
With one of the wettest, coolest summers on record and a cool Autumn following, it leaves one to wonder if this Winter will be a reflection of that experienced in the Northern Hemisphere this year.

Japanese university sets world record with an insane 2 quadrilion-watt laser burst
According to a recently published release, scientists at Osaka University in Japan have reportedly fired the world's most powerful laser beam. To do this, researchers used the university's massive, 300-foot LFEX (Laser for Fast Ignition Experiments) to blast out a 2-petawatt burst (2,000,000,000,000 watts) -- allegedly the largest, most energetic burst ever achieved.
Two quadrillion watts is, without question, a ridiculously large amount of output. But the thing is, the laser didn't actually emit that many watts for very long. The burst only lasted about one picosecond (1/1,000,000,000,000 of a second), so while the energy output was incredibly large, the actual amount of power (energy divided by time) the LFEX used wasn't all that big. When it was all said and done, the laser only produced enough power to run a microwave for about two seconds.
That makes it sound pretty weak, but just take a second to consider what that means. This laser fired for one trillionth of a second. That's not even enough time for light to travel a full millimeter -- but in that minuscule stretch of time, the LFEX emitted enough energy to warm up your breakfast burrito for two full seconds. That's ridiculous.
And the researchers aren't stopping there, either. "With heated competition in the world to improve the performance of lasers, our goal now is to increase our output to 10 petawatts," said the institute's Junji Kawanaka, an associate professor of electrical engineering at the university.
Unfortunately there isn't a video of the LFEX being fired, but if you need a better explanation of how all this craziness works, we highly recommend checking out the above video from University of Texas at Austin -- the previous world record holder, and first organization to produce a 1 petawatt laser burst.
