But that's beside the point. Small talk has to have a destination - even if it's really little small talk. Does it really matter to the plot? To the character arc? To the theme?
Possibly the greatest example of this I have read was in the Bellmaker (I highly recommend it, one of Jacques best even though its underrated), one of Brian Jacques's classic stories of Redwall. Several of the characters had been caged inside of the evil villain's castle, and now sat gloomily about in the castle dungeon. They began to talk - talk about trivial things. About their home, a reminiscing of sorts. It was almost sad, nostalgic, and bittersweet. It was simple small talk, going over their favorite foods and customs, and yet I felt so connected to them because I knew them, I knew who they were. They were real.
Now give him three more. No, really. A reader will come to love a character - just simple words on a piece of paper (sometimes even digital), through knowing him. A reader needs to know your character. Major decisions? Tense situations? They're all good, but they're the big things in life. Do we reveal part of ourselves to our best friends every week so our 'story' can go on? No. But we talk to them. Just simple, small talk. And we learn about each other, and we grow as friends.

The city of Memphis holds a unique place in the history of popular music and one the city's iconic labels – SUN – is rightly regarded as one of the most important and influential imprints. Sun Records was the baby of Sam Philips who opened the legendary Memphis Recording Service in 1950. In 1959 he moved into new premises and grandly renamed his operation Sam Philips Recording Service. Recordings issued on Sun and/or recorded by Philips are amongst the most iconic in the canon of popular music in the second half of the 20th century – recordings that featured legends like Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash, Roy Orbison, Howlin' Wolf, BB King and Junior, Parker.
To celebrate the achievements of Philips and Sun, the Americana Music Society have just released a concise 10 tracker – 'RED HOT... A MEMPHIS CELEBRATION OF SUN RECORDS'. All the musicm on the album was recorded in Philips' garlanded studios and production's down to Luther Dickinson of the North Mississippi Allstars. He's called in a whole team of Memphis musicians to help him deliver his tribute – amongst them John Paul Keith, Bryan Hayes, Bobby Rush and Alvin Youngblood Hart who delivers a full on rendition of Johnny Cash's 'Folsom Prison Blues'. Other highlights include Luther Dickinson's take on Howlin' Wolf's 'Moanin' At Midnight' and Valerie June's version of Carl Perkins' 'Sure To Fall' which Beatles' fans will tell you was a mainstay of the Fabs' early stage shows.
Sam Philips' mission statement with Sun was "to sell hope to people who have none" and in keeping with that spirit, all proceeds from 'RED HOT... A MEMPHIS CELEBRATION OF SUN RECORDS' will go St Jude Children's Research Hospital that leads the way in America in treating childhood cancer.

USDA's Risk Management Agency has combined and streamlined federally-subsidized crop insurance products.
The policies remain pretty much the same. But the names are all different.
One policy, "Revenue Protection" (RP) replaces both Crop Revenue Coverage (CRC) and Revenue Assurance (RA). Actual Production History (APH) becomes "Yield Protection." Income Protection (IP) and Indexed Income (IIP) become "Revenue Protection with Harvest Price Exclusion."
Conversions are automatic
"Producers of corn, cotton, soybeans and other spring-planted crops, who have crop insurance policies, will not actively have to do anything," says Jan Eliassen, a private consultant who does risk management education work for the crop insurance industry, USDA's Risk Management Agency and several state departments of agriculture. "Your old policy will roll over into a new name."
This new "Common Crop Insurance Policy" (COMBO) kept and combined the principle features in the five plans that producers bought most often. Now all insurance coverage is consistent in insurance protection and cost to producers.
Which crops are insurable and what types of policies are available varies from state to state and county to county.
If you want more clarification of what these changes mean for you, contact your crop insurance agent well before the deadline to buy crop insurance. For most spring-planted crops in the South the deadline is February 28. In most other states the deadline is March 15.
The sign-up deadline is also the deadline for making any changes to existing policies.

What are the guidelines?
Responding to the emergence of new scientific evidence, WHO is in the process of developing a revised and consolidated set of guidelines related to the use of anti-retroviral treatment (ARV) for HIV treatment and prevention. These guidelines will prioritise people living with HIV and those most at risk of acquiring HIV, and aim to accelerate progress towards universal access to HIV diagnostics, treatment, care and support. The guidelines are planned for release in early 2013. Previous versions can be found here.
What is the consultation?
The new generation of guidelines will include, in addition to the customary clinical guidance, operational and service delivery guidance and programmatic guidance targeted towards HIV programme managers. This will help countries make the best strategic decisions on the use of ARVs.
Recognising that it is critical for the guidelines to reflect the realities of the lives of people and communities living with and affected by HIV, and of civil society, WHO seeks to undertake a consultative process with communities to inform the revised, consolidated guidelines.
To support communities' active role in informing the guidelines the Alliance and the Global Network of People Living with HIV (GNP+), in collaboration with WHO, are conducting an online e-survey and an online e-forum discussion. Further details can be found below.
A Civil Society Working Group has been formed to guide the content and process of consultation and promote the effective and inclusive engagement of communities.
How can I take part?
Opportunities to feed into the process include:
An online survey available in five languages: English, French, Spanish, Russian, and Arabic (7th November 2012– 14th January 2013). Instructions on how to access the e-survey will be announced on 7th November.
E-Forum discussions providing opportunities for more in-depth qualitative discussions around key technical issues and areas of concern (12th November 2012 – 14th January 2013).
To stay informed, and prepare for the consultation, sign up for our consultation eForum discussions by sending a blank email to the following e-mail address:
English – firstname.lastname@example.com
Spanish – email@example.com
French – firstname.lastname@example.com
Russian – email@example.com
Arabic – firstname.lastname@example.com
You will receive a confirmation email by return.
The WHO Civil Society Reference Group looks forward to your participation and support in this critically important process.

Handpicked Hall Independent Barcodes, Leeds, June 2013
Public Realm | Public Art
rednile specialise in projects which link to regeneration and the changing public realm. Our approach is to explore site and place, using a wide range of methodologies often including play as a concept, revealing the hidden or unknown and activing unused or unexpected spaces. We aim to highlight important issues, instigate debate, often in a public, non-art setting and to create art/design pieces which have impact, quality and innovation. It is very important to us that art/design can be appreciated on different levels by audiences whilst remaining challenging and retaining a clear artistic rationale. Past projects have involved temporary and permanent artworks and integrated design features located within housing estates, parks and buildings.
'Sometimes, expectations or hopes for a project will not quite work out; it won't go wrong, exactly, but will be lacking something. On other occasions, expectations are exceeded; not only is the outcome as good or better than hoped for, but the process to get there achieves more than expected or hoped for – in terms of community interest, public feedback, stakeholder engagement, artistic approach, etc. This was one of those projects.' – Mike Campbell, Arts and Creative Development Manager, North Tyneside Council commenting on Pioneering Species, June 2009.

Beer Review: Grand Teton Persephone Imperial Pilsner, Is A Should Try
In the realm of Pilsners, the Light Lager is king. Because of this many would be drinkers would just assume belly up to the bar and drink a long neck then venture out into the world of complex, and versatile beers such as the Bohemian Pilsener. But then again this doesn't apply to you given that you are reading this review.
A few weeks ago, we reached out Idaho's Grand Teton and inquired about the Persephone and they were very eager to point in the direction of getting a bottle. As with many of our reviews we like to review the guidelines laid out regarding the style we are about to consume.
Brewers Association Suggested Guidelines
Traditional Bohemian Pilseners are medium bodied, and they can be as dark as a light amber color. This style balances moderate bitterness and noble-type hop aroma and flavor with a malty, slightly sweet, medium body. Extremely low levels of diacetyl and low levels of sweet corn-like dimethylsulfide (DMS) character, if perceived, are characteristic of this style and both may accent malt aroma. A toasted-, biscuit-like, bready malt character along with low levels of sulfur compounds may be evident. There should be no chill haze. Its head should be dense and rich.
Persephone as it pours out of the bottle is clear but with a burnt like the shade of sunrise appearance. As the beer settles in the glass a strong white froth of foam rests on top, reminding this writer of lemon meringue pie with that whipped top.
As the beer settles further and begins to warm up we pick herbal (spice, mint) notes along with bit of grass-like earthy bitterness and an element of toasted bread.
Taking our first sip we are greeted first by a floral (flowers) and mint combination before a wash of grainy almost bread-like maltiness covers our tongue. As the bit of the sip reaches the back of the tongue there is a minor hint of bitterness before minor fruitiness appears. Overall Persephone feels medium bodied and except for a minor hint of alcohol it's hard to believe this is an Imperial Pilsner in your hand.
Persephone (pur-seff-uh-knee) Imperial Pilsner was brewed with one foot in the past and one in the present. We started by creating this beer in the German style, an offshoot of the original pilsner that features German noble hops and a lighter, crisper body than its Czech counterpart. We used a blend of domestic Idaho 2-row barley and imported German malts as well as German Hersbrucker hops for flavor and aroma. We then took a leap forward by making this brew twice the strength of a traditional pilsner (8.76% alcohol by volume), with a big hop flavor to match.
Our Thoughts.
You Should Try This. Like all things in life this beer is only available between February and May of this year. After that the brewery will be featuring their Farmhouse Ale The Grand Saison. If you are picking this up at a grocery store or at a restaurant we would like to concur with the breweries suggestion and point you towards a white fish like tuna or maybe just keep it simple and go with a savory medium to low spiced bratwurst.

Cloud Computing Inspires New Developer Suite
LongJump Releases Standards-Based Developer Suite
By: Cloud News Desk
Sep. 23, 2008 03:00 AM
"Platform-as-a-Service is not only real; it is inevitable," said Pankaj Malviya, LongJump's founder and CEO, as he unveiled the company's LongJump Development Suite.
"Many have tried to distill the definition of PaaS to its most essential elements, but nearly everyone emphasizes flexibility and customizability relative to SaaS and ease of deployment relative to custom-built software. End-users prize SaaS applications for their universal accessibility, high degree of reliability and convenient pricing. These applications, however, are still packaged functions at their core and cannot always be fully customized for an enterprise's internal purposes. PaaS products attempt to win on customizability by providing users with a hosted palette of components that can be assembled as needed into business applications." noted enterprise software analyst Vishwanath Venugopalan, of The 451 Group, a technology industry analyst firm, in a recent report. "Relative to custom software built and deployed in-house, PaaS offerings attract user interest for ease of deployment and reduced time to market."
LongJump's PaaS offering enables the use of customizable, reusable application "Building Blocks" including objects, scripts, component extensions, business logic, data policies, and workflows that greatly improve the speed of application development and sharing of data across applications. Once data models and processes are created by either clicking or coding, these building blocks can be reused across the platform to serve a variety of business needs. For example, a single contract object and its records can be created and reused by business teams such as sales, business development, compliance, legal, and finance by simply modifying data policies and workflows.
The new LongJump Development Suite includes a visual browser-based UI for data and process modeling as well as advanced coding and scripting features for developers who are familiar with Java, so they can enhance and extend applications or completely create new data models and processes from scratch. Additionally, LongJump provides a set of web service integration points using SOAP and RESTful APIs to seamlessly connect to external systems or platforms. When LongJump Objects are extended, those fields are immediately available for integration with SOAP and REST APIs, workflow processes, and the built-in report creation wizard.

On Saturday we went over to the hospital as a family. Sadie did well for hours but eventually needed a break from the hospital. Sadie and I made a run to Superstore and Dollarama to get her out for a bit. We were not able to find something we'd been looking for and decided to head over to London Drugs. I never thought anything of it until I walked into the mall holding Sadie's hand. The last time I had been in that mall was on November 16, 2011. I had walked in with Sadie and Shawn to have an ultrasound and find out if our little baby was a girl or a boy. We walked out heart broken and crushed, our baby girl had a heart that was broken. The emotions flooded back as I walked through the mall and I was in awe of how much more we'd been through than I ever imagined possible. I cannot help but give glory to God. This is not possible without the Lord as no one is strong enough to take so much.
We headed back to the hospital after dropping off our groceries and spent the rest of the day at the hospital as a family. It's amazing to be together as a family, I just wish it could be in our own home. I hold onto the hope that it will happen sometime soon.
This morning the plan was the same, to head to the hospital as a family. I have no idea what happened to Sadie through the night, but she woke up a little naughty. She kept insisting that she had to pee and wanted to sit on the toilet forever. We needed to leave and eventually had to pin her down and dress her. She proceeded to pee her pants as soon as we had her coat and shoes on. It was not a relaxing or enjoyable start to 'Family Day'.
Once we arrived at the hospital Sadie was more herself and the rest of the day went well. The doctors came to speak to us about Hope. It sounds like the meeting with all the important doctors should be happening on Wednesday or Thursday. They drew blood this afternoon, that has to be done peripherally and cannot be taken from her line. We asked for the nurses from ICU to come up and draw it from her head. This is often a better place to draw from Hope and can be done with one poke. They agreed and the blood was drawn with one poke.
It sounds like Hope will finish her round of pure TPN later this week. Once that is finished, they plan to start giving Hope breast milk from the milk bank here in Calgary. It will be spun and all the fat will be removed from it initially as her body is still not able to have any fat. This is because of the Chylothorax in her lungs. Hopefully this is successful and we have Hope eating right away and are able to get her home!
In the late afternoon we got some results from the blood work. Hope's platelets have been very low for a long time. Today they came back perfect and her electrolytes are perfect as well! It appears her body is much happier at the moment and she is doing well. She has lost some weight since returning to Calgary and is at her weight from July. We worry that she'll continue to lose once on breast milk and hope that she'll be able to get back on higher fat feeds quickly. She's been 11 pounds for so long, I feel like we'll need to have a party when she hits 12 pounds!
Another week begins tomorrow, I always hate when Shawn has to go back to work and I have to be alone at the hospital. I just want my girls at home so we can greet Shawn when he gets in from work each day. Please continue to pray that this happens soon!
Our baby has been diagnosed with HLHS (hypoplastic left heart syndrome). We believe that God is in control and will use our situation to glorify his name. As we take this journey, we invite you to join us on our knees and pray for a mended heart.

The GV08S smartwatch phone – For Calling, Texting, Selfies and Entertainment
Now a days, big companies like Motorola, Samsung, LG and Apple mostly try to introduce as many features as possible into their new smart watches, without compromising design or performance. It seems like many are afraid to take an example from Chinese smart watch makers, because too many features might not be compatible or useful with the OS that they use, namely Android Wear, TouchWiz or Watch OS. But Chinese smart watch makers are not afraid to step out of their comfort zone, and the GV08S is yet another great example of a feature-filled smart watch.
The GV08S Smart Watch Phone design is the blend of a digital and an analog timepiece look. The watch features a painted zinc alloy housing attached to a black TPU plastic wristband. The face of the watch is a rectangular display that houses a white hour and minute set of hands set against a black background.
Features and functions:-
- The Bluetooth feature of the GV08S allows you to make or receive calls through your phone over the watch's connectivity with the aid of a Bluetooth earpiece.
- The Bluetooth service also allows you to control the camera of your smart phone in order to remotely take pictures with the phone's camera. This remote control feature allows you to get those hard-to-frame "selfies."
- The smart watch enables you to send or receive text messages directly through its own display at your wrist.
- The GV08S also allows you to synchronize data such as contact information, messages, music and even call logs with your cell phone at any time.
- The GV08S Smart Watch Phone comes with an expandable memory and a music player that allows you to listen to music through a pair of Bluetooth headphones.
- The smart watch has an inbuilt 0.3M pixel camera that allows you to take and store photos locally.
- The watch comes with a 1.5 inch, 240 x 240 pixels HD IPS OGS LCD touch screen that gives you a rather high definition and good picture quality.
- The watch has been designed with an inbuilt pedometer. This feature helps you to count and keep track of your footsteps for health and fitness purposes.
- The GV08S Smart Watch also comes with another inbuilt fitness feature; a sedentary reminder. The sedentary reminder sends intermittent notifications to you, the wearer, when you have been inactive for too long. This watch simply reminds you to pay attention to your health.
- One of the best features of the GV08S Smart Watch is probably its anti-theft feature. The watch uses its Bluetooth connectivity to wirelessly tether your phone to itself and vice versa. When the gap between the two gadgets gets unrealistically wide, the watch sends out an alert to you.
- The GV08S Smart Watch phone also comes with features that are present in other smart watches, such as a voice or sound recorder, a calculator, a calendar and a clock alarm.
Despite the GV08S's rather plain look, it is undeniable that it has been built with many useful features that are currently not present in most smart watch brands. When all is said and done, the GV08S Smart Watch Phone by all standards has definitely earned itself a position of envy among its competition.

text: Vilenjak is a tiny fantasy nation along the border of Croatia and Slovenia. It consists of 3 residences located on 43 hectares with a population of maybe 20. The only bridge into the isolated community was washed out in the early 1970's. Unable to get the government to rebuild the bridge, they declared independence, which seems to have been tolerated by local authorities. In 2012 they issued a tiny square gold coin to help raise funds to build a new, permanant bridge. The 50 Vinar coin is struck in .999 fine gold, weighs 2 grains and is just 6mm on each side (about 1/4 inch square). One side has the date and name of the country, the other side has the denomination.

This weeks unofficial theme is "So far away". I think that theme might be applicable for my great-great Grandmother Margaret Potter. Born in Greenock, Renfrewshire Scotland on 3 September 1829, I'm sure when she found herself in Liverpool, England sometime before the age of 20, she thought she was far away from her home. She likely never would never have imagined that she would end up in Prince Edward Island, Canada before she was 25.
Margaret's father, Cap't John Potter, is said to have died at sea. I have conflicting dates for his death, but I think he died in 1845. Margaret's mother, Margaret Kemp Mills, also died that year. Margaret had one sibling that I know about, John, who was 3 years older than she.
I can imagine the relatives were scrambling to decide what to do with Margaret when she was orphaned at age 16. John would have been old enough to have gone out into the world to seek his fortune and indeed, I have found him in Sacramento California, in 1870, though not very prosperous but that's another story.
The little information I have on the Potter family is that they were a seafaring family. Margaret's father and maternal grandfather were both sea captains and I believe that some of Margaret's uncles or cousins owned a shipping company. This is how I think she got to Liverpool and how she likely met her future husband John Ellis, also a sea captain.
The story in my family was that Margaret's family thought John Ellis to be telling tall tales when he told them that horse races were held each winter on the frozen ice in Summerside harbour. Not having endured any Canadian winters I'm sure they couldn't imagine the sea water freezing over to the degree necessary to run horses on it. Since most family stories are based on some degree of truth, even if they are embellished through the generations, this story gives me hope that I will find evidence that Margaret was living with relatives in Liverpool before she married John Ellis.
Margaret and John were married 4 October 1848 at St. Mark's Anglican Church, Liverpool. Their first child, Margaret McGowan, was born 19 November 1849. In the 1851 British census, Margaret, was recorded living at 119 Bedford Street, Toxteth Park, Liverpool, Lancashire, England. She was married, 21 years old, born in Greenock, Refrew. Her husband was a Master Mariner away at sea. One servant was living in the household named Mary Ann Lloyd. Mary Ann was a nurse caring for baby Margaret, no doubt.
Hannah, was born 22 July 1851 in Liverpool. Sometime between then and 8 August 1853 when Kenneth Forbes was born, Hannah emigrated to Prince Edward Island where three more sons were born: John Henry, born 8 July 1855, Francis Potter, born 28 November 1857 and Everard Hutchinson, born 4 March 1860. John bought a parcel of land from his father and in true Sea Captain style built a house on the shore just east of the harbour in Summerside. There are no pictures of this house, but I like to imagine that it had a widow's walk.
That was not the end of Hannah's travels. Sometime before 25 Apr 1865 she returned to Liverpool. Everard Hutchinson died there that day and was buried at St. James Cemetery, Liverpool. I believe her next trip to the Island (Prince Edward Island) was her last Atlantic crossing. Her comings and goings around the Maritimes were recorded by Robert Ellis, her father-in-Law, in his day books. Captain John Ellis died 18 December 1873 and Maggie went on to live to a ripe old age of 88 years. She died 12 August 1917 and was buried at St. John's Anglican Church Cemetery in St. Eleanor's.

Rajnath Singh orders 'thorough probe' into Zakir Naik's speeches
Union home minister Rajnath Singh said on Friday that CDs of Zakir Naik's speeches are being examined for necessary actionindia Updated: Jul 08, 2016 12:59 IST
Amidst allegations that Islamist preacher Zakir Naik was involved in making hate speeches, home minister Rajnath Singh said on Friday that CDs of his speeches are being examined for necessary action.
"We have taken cognisance of Zakir Naik's speeches and have given necessary instructions for a probe. A thorough investigation will be done. "CDs of his speeches are being examined," Singh told reporters.
"As far as government is concerned, we will not compromise on terrorism at any cost. Whatever is justified will be done," Singh said.
Mumbai-based Naik has come under the scanner after it was reported that his speeches have inspired some of the Dhaka cafe attackers.
Read | Some like Zakir Naik, some don't, others won't talk
Maharashtra government on Thursday ordered a probe into the speeches by the Muslim televangelist.
"I have asked the Mumbai police commissioner to conduct a probe (into Naik's speeches) and submit a report," Maharashtra chief minister Devendra Fadnavis told PTI.
Naik's speeches, his social media accounts and sources of funding his organisation will be scrutinised, said Fadnavis.
Naik, however, released a statement saying he "totally disagreed" that he inspired the act of killing innocent people in Dhaka. "There is not a single talk of mine where I encouraged one to kill another, whether Muslim or non-Muslim," he said.
Information and broadcasting minister M Venkaiah Naidu called Naik's speeches, as being reported in the media, as highly objectionable. "The home ministry will study (his speeches). It will take appropriate action after studying them," Naidu told reporters.

One of the many ironies of Britain's involvement in the Great War concerns its vital military contribution to the defeat of the German army on the Western Front. This victory came about almost accidentally: a decisive British military role was not part of the country's initial strategical plan.
In 1914 the United Kingdom was universally acknowledged as the world's greatest naval and imperial power, but by continental standards its military power was minuscule. Of the six million European soldiers mobilised in July and August 1914, the British Expeditionary Force numbered fewer than 100,000, "a rapier among scythes".
Ever since January 1906, as a result of secret Anglo-French army staff discussions, it had been agreed broadly that in the event of war a British force of only six infantry and one cavalry division would take up position on the left flank of a French army of 72 divisions. Though the Liberal government, with its traditional anti-militarist members, sanctioned these discussions, none of its members seem to have appreciated the momentous possibilities of their consequences. From 1910, when Sir Henry Wilson became Director of Military Operations at the War Office, these war plans were meticulously timetabled and finalised.
So when Britain declared war on Germany on August 4, 1914, cross-Channel ferries and French railway rolling stock were all ready and available for the BEF. Of all of this Asquith's cabinet was ignorant. When the Council of War met for the first time in the afternoon of August 5, it was told firmly and bluntly by Wilson that the BEF's destination was Maubeuge on the border of France with Belgium and he then had to show them on the map where it was!
There was no question of assisting the Belgians, though the British ultimatum had been sent to Berlin on their behalf. As long since arranged, though never admitted even in the secrecy of the cabinet room, the British would fight for France at the northern end of its frontier defences. When Lord Kitchener, the newly-appointed Secretary for War, tried to alter Wilson's strategy, he had to give way to French staff officers. Like it or not, the BEF would be no more than an auxiliary to the French army and not an independent arm.
So the die was cast. The Royal Navy had no say in the matter: plans that it might have entertained to land troops on Germany's Baltic shore were not even considered. All that the First Lord of the Admiralty, Winston Churchill, could do was to alert and mobilise the Grand Fleet for a decisive sea battle in the North Sea with the Kaiser's battleships. For centuries, Britain's war strategy had been determined by the use of naval superiority, but from now on independent decision-making had been conceded to its French allies. As Chancellor of the Exchequer, Lloyd George, asked Churchill in January 1915, "Are we really bound to hand over the ordering of our troops to France as if we were her vassal?"
Though the British army on the Western Front was to grow massively in numbers and strength, it never matched that of the French. Even at its maximum size in 1918, Haig's soldiers held little more than 100 miles of the 475 front line, whereas at no time were the French responsible for less than twice that length.
Secondly, the Schlieffen Plan might have failed, but it had come perilously near to success. Even after their repulse on the Marne and retreat to the Aisne, at its furthest the German front line was still within 50 miles of Paris. Despite repeated, desperate and very expensive assaults, the French had recovered none of their lost patrimony of Alsace and Lorraine and to the north the German army occupied extensive parts of Champagne, Picardy and Artois. In the intolerable circumstances, no Frenchman could even consider a strategy other than the liberation of the nation's entire homeland.
So, not withstanding the strength of the Germans in their chosen defensive positions, the French could not merely sit and watch them: they had to take the offensive; and, however ill-prepared, the British were obliged to aid them. Yet the initiative was always with the Germans. They had fallen back to the higher ground. They had the means, the time and the motive to dig in deeply. Apart from their 75mm field guns, the French were inferior in every way to their enemies. Their cavalry might have charged at Waterloo. With their red kepis (peaked caps) and red trousers, their infantry were no better equipped and trained than their grandfathers who had besieged Sevastopol in the Crimea 60 years earlier. On the battlefield of 1914, the only French tactic was to advance en masse directly at the Germans without thought for cover or deployment and they were massacred by machine guns and shrapnel artillery.
Whereas neither the British nor the French military had made any preparations to fight defensively, implicit in the Schlieffen Plan, their German counterparts assumed that on the frontiers of Alsace and Lorraine they would have to withstand a major, massed offensive. Accordingly, by 1914, the Germans had stockpiled supplies for siege warfare – spades, barbed wire, timber, searchlights, trench mortars, flares and periscopes – which the French and British troops entirely lacked. In October, 1914, allied cavalrymen had dismounted and were digging shallow trenches with their swords and lances!
So at the beginning of 1915 this was the predicament facing the London government. Now there seemed no honourable or practical choice: whatever the price the French had to be supported; the alternative was to risk French defeat and collapse. Kitchener's appeal to swell the army's ranks had been astonishingly effective: in five months nearly a million young men had volunteered. But it would take many months, perhaps years, to assemble, train, clothe, arm and convey them to the battlefront. And in the meantime, what was to be done? The Russians and the Serbs had already sustained heavy losses. Would they be able to carry on without help? Contrary to the optimistic forecasts of the Admiralty and the British public, the Kaiser had not risked his battleships in open warfare, yet his U-boats, mines and lightning coastal raids had been demoralising and damaging.
In the event, it was the Turks who gave Britain both opportunity and reason for an alternative strategy. Early in August 1914, two German warships, the Goeben and the Breslau, hotly pursued by the Royal Navy across the Mediterranean, were given sanctuary at Constantinople. In October, without warning, they shelled Russia's Black Sea ports. On November 5, the British government declared war on the Ottoman empire, thereby opening a new, extensive Middle Eastern theatre and providing the Royal Navy, at last, with active employment.

Network Cards
I had my House Wifi sped up a bit to 30 mbps from 6 recently. I don't notice much difference. My Wifi Card was probably purchased about 5 or 6 years ago. It is compatible with 802.11N. I was looking on New Egg at the cards. One had two antenna's. Does that do anything or just look good? Would a new card have any parts that might help me get better reception over the older one I had? Do you think a new card would make any difference? I appreciate all input. Thanks,

Are you sure there is no bump in network speed? Did you go to an Internet speed test site like speedtest.net?
Dual antennas offer diversity much like how wireless mics work in studio environments. It might offer better reception, but I think the biggest factor would be router placement. Where is the router located and how far away is it? Is the router firmware updated to the latest? How old is the router? What kind is it?
|My System Specs
|02 Jun 2018
One other factor in the speed upgrade is your internet habits, You will have automatically adjusted your requirements for use of the internet to suit your bandwidth, you will by human nature, not do things that you find slow when doing other things , but wait until one has finished before starting the other. It does not make sense to download updates or a new game from steam etc, whilst you are watching Netflix or Youtube so you arrange things differently
For example your original 6Mb/s could handle three concurrent 1080p HD video streams your New 30mb/s can handle fifteen - but I doubt that you have suddenly added several new TVs the main advantage of a larger bandwidth in real terms is the number of concurrent data streams i can handle at one time - This makes it almost an essential for modern family homes Where Mom, Pop and their 2.4 kids will all have smartphones, tablets and computers plus a range of smart TVs and other items.
There should be an increase in basic downloads of large files, ( major Windows updates or ISOs), and this should show on https://www.speedtest.net and others, but your day to day usage will take some time to change as your actual usage changes
I have a speed of around 60 Mb/s and recently found that speedtest was showing a speed of 8mb/s - this was due to my router using a Quality of service (QOS) system to only allow a process to take what bandwidth it actually needed, and the 8Mb/s was all the site needed to run the test efficiently plus my background tasks.
|My System Specs
|02 Jun 2018
Also the "AC" Card you have will support wireless speeds much higher than the 30 Mb/s (my New Router will support 600 Mb/s on 2.4Ghz and 1650 Mb/s on 5Ghz) - Most systems of of your age should support at least 150 Mb/s.
If you use ethernet of course the options are different (though the result is the same) - There were 10Mb/s cards and routers many years ago, (and 11Mb/s Wireless), but these were obsolete many years ago, (think 1990s). I would expect the ethernet on your cards to be at least 100Mb/s and probably 1000Mb/s (Gigabyte speeds)
The bottleneck in internet access is 99%+ always going to be the actual internet bandwidth
There is some talk and actual systems out in the wild of 1GHz internet bandwidth, (this is the speed that most of the internet backbone fibre lines run at and you will see it in some Universities), but this is a distant dream for most.
|My System Specs
|02 Jun 2018
My big complaint is that pages load slower than they did before the upgrade. AT&T put in a new router when then they laid the fiber wire to my house. That what is so puzzling to me. It should be at least as good, but the pages are slower loading. That is why I ask the question about the card. I don't know what else it could be. == I did Speedtest and I got close to 30 up and down.
|My System Specs
|02 Jun 2018
You have not mentioned if you're discussing ethernet or wireless, but in either case the both systems are fully backwards compatible with the previous standards so you should get at least the same as before, (after a week or so in some systems that autotune to give best results).
I would certainly put in a call for the ISP to confirm that all is working correctly at their end If you use email you could include links to a results from https://www.speedtest.net (which is the most respected of the tests), also if you have a record of what you were getting prior to the change that will improve your case - Maybe you posted in the What's your internet speed? thread here and you can link to the post
If you need all the gory detail this link may give a better understanding of wireless standards

In Shadowmatic, you rotate objects that are reflected as shadows on the wall. The object of the game is to find the right silhouette for the puzzle. You may discover several different objects created by manipulating the shadow, but the room's environment will give you a hint at what you need to create. For example, if the room is within a ship, you might concentrate on sea creatures. Download Shadowmatic 02 of 12 Threes Threes is a fun game where you push numbers together on a small grid to make bigger and bigger numbers. You are restricted to combining numbers only if they match, except for the one and two which push together to make a three. The game is fun, fast and yet still has quite a bit of challenge to it. I've linked to the free version, but there is also an ad-free paid version of the game. Download Threes 03 of 12 Angry Birds Star Wars The Angry Birds series are the definitive physics-based puzzle games on the app store. Each game presents a fun challenge wrapped in both humor and style, with easy entry levels quickly giving way to brain teasers. The Star Wars version mixes in one of the best space operas in history, giving the game a lot of charisma, and now that the sequel is available, the original is set at a discounted price. Download Angry Birds Star Wars 04 of 12 Tetris Blitz Tetris doesn't need much of an introduction. The game has been dragging people into the depths of game addiction for three decades now, and with a rather nice variation on it, Tetris Blitz feels new and old at the same time. Tetris Blitz is a timed version of the game where you shoot for the highest score within the time limit. There is also a more traditional version available. Download Tetris Blitz 05 of 12 Cut the Rope Do you like candy? Who doesn't? Especially monsters. Or, at least the Om Nom, the monster inside a mysterious package that arrived at your doorstep. And it is up to you to feed the monster the candy it craves by using your rope cutting skills combined with neat effects like reversing gravity. Just look out for the spiders and jagged spikes. Cut the Rope is a mix of physics-based puzzle solving and cute gameplay. Download Cut the Rope 06 of 12 Dots Dots is about as minimalist as it gets on the app store. The game consists of a screen of dots and gameplay consists of matching the dots by drawing a line between them. Sound simple? It is. And that's perhaps why it is so addicting. It might sound like a simple game of connecting the marbles, but what puts Dots apart is the special move of making a square, which takes out all dots of that color. This small addition changes the entire strategy of the game from getting the biggest connection to setting up making square after square. Download Dots 07 of 12 Puzzlejuice Have you ever wondered what you would get if you put Tetris into the teleporter from The Fly, but a Boggle piece was in the teleporter as well, turning it into a crazy gene splicer that spits out a Tetris/Boggle hybrid? Probably not. But if you ever do wonder what that would look like, it's Puzzlejuice. This game is one of the most addicting on the list. Like Tetris, you arrange shapes to make lines, but after they land, you search through them to form words. Amazingly simple and yet amazingly fun. Download Puzzlejuice 08 of 12 Bubble Ball Bubble Ball is one of the top physics-based puzzle games on the iPad. The gameplay is simple: you place wooden and metal beams in order to guide a dropped ball to the finish line. But while the premise may be simple, actually solving the puzzles can be quite a challenge. Download Bubble Ball 09 of 12 The New York Times Crossword Where would a list of puzzles be without the crossword puzzle? You'll get the same daily puzzle that is in the newspaper plus a lot of extras like additional puzzle clues, mini-puzzles, and crossword packs. The only bad thing is that the New York Times Crossword requires a subscription after your free trial runs out. Download The New York Times Crossword 10 of 12 Shanghai Mahjong Mahjong has long been an addicting puzzle game, and it really comes to life with over 50 different beautifully-rendered tilesets in Shanghai Mahjong for the iPad. And with over 200 layouts, you'll have plenty of different puzzles to solve. Shanghai Mahjong also supports the Game Center, so you can show off your best scores to all of your friends. This is definitely a must-have app for Mahjong fans. Download Shanghai Mahjong 11 of 12 Sudoku No list of great puzzle games would be complete without a version of Sudoku, and CrowdCafe's Sudoku HD will be the best buck ever spent by the Sudoku addicted. The game includes thousands of grid designs, so you won't run out of puzzles anytime soon. It also has a lot of neat features, like the ability to let the iPad solve the puzzle for you. Download Sudoku 12 of 12 World Of Hidden Objects Would this list be complete without at least one hidden object game? A virtual game of Where's Waldo, hidden object games beckon you to find all of the secrets hidden within an image. Unlike many similar games on the app store, World of Hidden Objects doesn't contain a story. Instead, it is simply a collection of beautiful photos that contain hidden objects for you to find. Download World Of Hidden Objects Looking For More Fun? Why should the fun stop? Check out our big list of the very best games of all time for the iPad. Continue Reading

1. To make the sauce whisk together the oil, chilli paste to fit your heat threshold, peanut butter, soy, vinegar, sugar and water and season with salt and pepper to taste. The sauce should be able to dribble off a spoon. If it's too thick, add a tablespoon of water at a time, whisking until you reach the desired sauce-like consistency.
2. On a large platter, begin to assemble your salad, starting with the lettuce, cabbage and bean sprouts. Add the carrot, cucumber and perilla lettuce, followed by the shredded chicken, mint, and coriander. Top with the spring onion and eggs that have been cut into quarters.
3. Drizzle the sauce generously over the salad and finish with a sprinkling of salt and pepper and a smattering of peanuts. Consume immediately.
4. If you are taking this salad to work or on a picnic, keep the vegetables fresh and separate from the sauce, dressing the salad only just before serving.

- 0.2 Ultimately, A Child's Skin Is Healthiest When It Is Clean as well as Dry

Fabric Diapers Are Better For Infant's Skin?
The health worries that numerous cloth diapering parents connect with non reusable baby diapers have to do with exposure to chemicals that are used in the manufacturing of disposable baby diapers as well as skin sensitivities. The chemical dioxin is made use of in the production of non reusable diapers, and is a recognized health hazard. Though no research has actually revealed a connection between putting on non reusable diapers and results on the skin, there are some concerns that the gases from non reusable baby diapers may be related to an increase in Asthmatic signs in youngsters. Family members that aim to decrease total direct exposure to chemicals in their households' environment select fabric diapers for this comfort.
Ultimately, A Child's Skin Is Healthiest When It Is Clean as well as Dry
Rising sales of diaper breakout creams coinciding with dropping sales in non reusable diapers lately brought attention to this non reusable diapering dilemma. With cloth diapers, the expense each change is much less of an aspect because each cloth diaper can be recycled hundreds of time, enabling for more frequent changes as well as a way to keep skin genuinely completely dry and also rash cost-free.
Environmental Effect of Disposable Diapers vs Cloth Diapers
The ordinary disposable baby diaper can take 500 years to disintegrate and also has petroleum, plastics, fragrances, timber pulp, as well as dioxins. These components of disposable diapers are not products that many environmentally aware people desire to throw in the trash. When a family members selects to use cloth baby diapers they select the tranquility of mind that comes from removing over 6,000 baby diapers per child from our land fills.
Cost of Cloth Diapers vs Disposable Diapers
The cost of towel diapers is dramatically reduced compared to the expense of disposables. The cost of fabric baby diapers comes upfront, when constructing up supply, but it alleviates the recurrent stress and anxiety over budgeting for disposable products on a routine basis. Picking fabric diapers is less expensive total, as well as much easier on the recurring budget plan.
Fabric nappies
Some parents like modern-day towel nappies. Fabric nappies can have much less of an environmental effect and price much less compared to disposables– specifically if you utilize them with various other kids.
There are numerous kinds of fabric nappies.
Fabric or 'terry' squares
These cloth nappies are made from material that takes in fluid, usually terry or flannelette cotton, hemp, bamboo or a mix. They fit comfortably but work best with a leak-proof cover. They could be a bit large. You fold or fasten these towel nappies with pins or clips. They dry promptly. The squares fit kids of any ages. These nappies are the least expensive to purchase.
These fabric nappies are made of soft layers of material, such as cotton or bamboo, which are folded up over right into a pad form and also put inside a fitted, watertight cover. They dry promptly.
Equipped nappies
These are likewise called contoured or shaped nappies. Fitted nappies come in one-size-fits-most and different dimensions. They're slower to completely dry and more pricey than cloth squares and pre-folds.
Pocket nappies.
These fabric nappies have a watertight external covering sewn together with a soft internal layer. There are inserts in the 'pocket' between the covering as well as the internal layer to absorb liquid. Inserts can be made from various products, which absorb various amounts of fluid. They're easy to utilize as well as dry quickly, but you should take out the inserts before washing as well as put them back in afterwards. They can be found in one-size-fits-most as well as different dimensions.
These towel nappies combine a waterproof outside layer stitched together with an absorptive internal layer, so there's no demand for a cover or different layers. They're generally the most expensive kind of multiple-use nappy.
All-in-twos or 'snap-in-ones'.
These fabric nappies have a leak-proof shell and also several absorptive 'snap-in' layers or 'boosters', which you uncouple for washing. They dry out faster compared to all-in-ones.
Deciding on cloth nappies.
If you believe you want to use cloth nappies for your baby, you'll require around 20-24 nappies to begin with, depending upon your cleaning and also drying routine, environment as well as season.
Video: reusable cloth in Pecatonica
It's a smart idea to try a couple of various types prior to you buy one key in bulk. You could do this by:.
getting a single nappy in the designs you like.
purchasing a trial pack from a company that sells samples.
working with a test pack from a nappy collection– this service is supplied by nappy business and also some community teams and councils.
asking good friends or family if they have any type of nappies that you could attempt.
There's presently no American standard for modern-day towel nappies, so it deserves inspecting the guarantee and after-sales service before you get. Abroad imports could differ in quality.
Non reusable nappies.
? Disposable nappies normally have a plastic outer layer, a layer of super-absorbent chemicals as well as an internal lining. Disposable nappies fast and also easy to use and fasten.
They can be found in different package sizes and are made for a range of ages.
If you think you wish to utilize disposable nappies, it's a great idea to attempt a couple of different brand names to see which one ideal fits your child and also budget.
You'll require up to 12 nappies a day for a newborn and also 6-8 a day for a young child.

Durant makes history as Thunder lose 105-87
By JEFF LATZKE
AP Sports Writer
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — The Boston Celtics bumped and banged in their usual style. What was out of the ordinary was how they got Kevin Durant to lose his cool.
Kevin Garnett scored 23 points, Paul Pierce added 21 in the first half and the Celtics completed a perfect four-game trip with a 105-87 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder on Friday night.
"I think we're right where we want to be, especially on the road," said Rajon Rondo, who had 15 points and four steals as his team moved to 9-1 on the road. "We've got to clean up home."
Garnett scored nine consecutive points, including three dunks, to put Boston in command in the first 5 minutes of the second half. His two-handed alley-oop jam, which followed a pair of right-handed dunks, pushed the lead to 18 at 71-53 and the Thunder were never closer than 15 after that.
Boston shot 59 percent through the first three quarters and outscored Oklahoma City 28-16 in the third period — with Rondo (13) and Garnett (11) doing most of the damage as coach Doc Rivers went to a spread pick-and-roll offense that the Thunder couldn't contain.
"Even though there were five guys on the floor, it was almost like they were playing a two-man game for the most part," Rivers said.
Durant scored 36 points — accounting for half of his team's scoring 3 minutes into the fourth quarter — before making an early exit with the rest of the Oklahoma City starters. But the usually mild-mannered Durant also picked up what he believed to be his first career technical foul for arguing a foul called against him late in the third quarter.
According to STATS Inc., the only other technical foul of Durant's career came Jan. 2 against Denver when he and the Nuggets' Dahntay Jones were assessed double technicals.
"I shouldn't have got fired up that much. That's not me," said Durant, who's in his third year in the league. "But I'm so passionate about the game, and I felt that it didn't go my way. I shouldn't have pouted like that and got upset.
"One technical out of almost 200 games, I guess I'll take that."
Durant shrugged off a shove from Garnett earlier in the game and didn't have much of a reaction to it in the locker room either — "It is what it is," he said. "In between the lines, nobody's going to fight. Nobody's going to get into any tussles."
But he didn't think the Celtics got the best of the Thunder for being more physical either.
"They just talk. That's one thing we don't try to do is just talk," Durant said. "They're a physical team. Give them that. They're a great team. But they do a lot of talk on the floor, which I think that's kind of false toughness. They get in some teams' head. I don't think they did it to us."
Still, Oklahoma City suffered its most lopsided loss at the Ford Center this season.
The dominant performance earned all of Boston's starters except Ray Allen a rest on the bench for the fourth quarter at the end of one road trip but with another looming. The Celtics will return home to play Milwaukee on Tuesday before three more away games.
"It's really strange when you play these games on the road, you come home for one game — I guess to unpack and repack — and then you go right back out there," Rivers said.
Boston won its seventh straight game to improve to 16-4 on the season, a half-game better than Orlando for the best record in the East.
"Almost there," Rondo said when asked if the Celtics were playing exactly how they hoped. "Not complete, but we're putting (it) together. It's not just one quarter now. We're putting a couple quarters together. We're not quite to 48 minutes but we're almost there."
Boston had seven players in double figures as Kendrick Perkins scored 13, Allen and Eddie House had 11 apiece and Rasheed Wallace finished with 10 points.
Russell Westbrook had 15 points for the Thunder.
The franchises have been linked since the trade of Allen on draft day in 2007 helped put the Celtics on their way to the NBA title. Oklahoma City has been rebuilding around Durant and Jeff Green — their top-5 picks from that draft — ever since.
The Thunder are off to a promising 10-9 start after a miserable 2008-09 season but got another reminder of the work that's left against the Celtics.
Durant entered the game needing only seven points to become the second-youngest player in NBA history to reach 4,000 career points. He got there with a jumper from the right elbow with 6:05 left in the first quarter, but the Celtics had already asserted themselves by then.
Durant's jumper snapped a 10-0 run featuring back-to-back 3-pointers by Pierce that put Boston ahead 19-10, and the Celtics wouldn't trail again.
NOTES: The only player to reach 4,000 points at a younger age than Durant was LeBron James — at 20 years, 318 days. Durant made it at 21 years, 66 days. Kobe Bryant, who had his record broken by James, was 21 years, 216 days when he scored his 4,000th point. … The Celtics' 31 points in the first quarter were their most in the opening period this season. … Boston, which has a 13-1 record on other days of the week, moved to 3-3 on Fridays.

Holiday Photo Card
Apr 04 2016
May 05 2016
Hi Haley, New photo looks awesome. B, love the vertical centering.
A. I like the thinner text.
A. I like the more delicate weight of merry. I would center the family name, though, like in B. :)
A: I think the thinner text complements the border best. I think B would work better if the photo were full bleed off the sides as I feel that's where the thicker text competes with the rest of the card.
I like the "Merry" in A and the family name text placement in B. Voting A ; ) Lovely design!
The photo on A is made for a design like this but the family on B is more appealing to me.
B for me
I like B! Though maybe bring the type at the bottom down a bit more?
I'm going with B on this.
A: I like the warmth in photo A! Very editorial-feeling :)
A for me!
Love B. I like the colors better with the sentiment.
ha! I can't spot the difference ;) I do think the spacing of the words around the y is still a bit off - maybe move them out a bit so there's more breathing room around the y?
I like the extension on the M. Lends balance.
A for me! I agree wth Dawn about the spacing... would it work at all to stack "little everything" rather than try to fit it around the Y?
I like the extended M. It's nice and balanced.
I looked at this for a few, at first not sold on the white rectangle. The more I look the more I like, it's not a common choice but works with the white border, this photo and typography.
Gorgeous! I might make the "little everything" a point or two smaller so there's more room around little. I also love the name in the box at the top. I might just double check that the border is at least as big as the safety margin. Those small borders can get so hard to look nice in final production since it's possible there would be some shift when they're trimmed.
This feels so perfectly balanced to me. Beautiful type, and I love the outside border. The only suggestion I might make is that my eye seems to want "The Macphersons 2016" centered in the white box. Lovely!
I think that the words pop most against the dark background. Cute!
I love the design! Very simple and elegant, and yet fun. I went with option C because i like the color palette of the photo. However, Option D was a close second. Great job and good luck in the challenge!
i like C but i'd play with the placement of the family name. it feels a bit disconnected to me. good luck :)

I know, I know. Christmas decor before Thanksgiving? Gasp! I couldn't help myself though. After October 31st, my inner Buddy the Elf kicked in and I had to decorate something.
Enter our ho hum master. Its made a lot of headway since we moved in, but it always get pushed way down on our to do list in favor of bigger impact projects. It was time for our bedroom to get a little love. I knew that I could create a cozy Christmas bedroom for us with a few simple changes.
It all started with this darling Christmas Tree Farm sign from my friend Jenny over at Down Grace Lane. She hand makes the most adorable signs. You'll find them all over our house, but I think her Christmas signs might be my fave! I hung it on our DIY headboard just above the acorn garland that stays there year round.
Since our bedding is neutral, adding in a few festive and cozy pillows from Target and Marshall's completely changed the look of our room.
I added a plaid blanket scarf from Target's dollar spot on top of the faux fur blanket that always lives on our bed for a bit more color and coziness. I mean, is there really such a thing as too much cozy during the winter? No. No, there is not.
A tray filled with a few of my current favorites round out our room and up the cozy factor some more. Hot chocolate, the most amazing Bayberry candle from Target and Pottery Barn's Christmas magazine put me in the Christmas spirit for sure.
Our room happened to be the perfect blank slate to add Christmas elements to. If your room has a less neutral color palette, its still possible to cozy it up for the winter holidays. Instead of focusing on traditional christmas colors, focus on adding lots of cozy textures like faux fur, flannel and chunky sweater knits. Some simple greenery and twinkle lights will do the trick, too.
Now you can shop our Christmas bedroom by clicking the pictures below!
So what do y'all think? Do you love the idea of a Christmas bedroom or is it too much? This is the first year I've decorated our room for Christmas, and I love it so much I think its going to be our newest tradition!

World Racing Series beta13 released!
Moto2 2017 MOD v.1.2b UPDATEChangelog v.1.2b:Fixed bug in the suspensions physics that causes to rebound strangely in hard braking.Download in first post
Hate to say but this just happened with the Kalex from 1.2bThat's how the game locked up - I took a photo.Same thing happened once yesterday at the same spot using 1.2...but yesterday I also had 4 wierd ones at the first hairpin as well(like Sonic hitting one of his little springs - punched the bike into the air). That doesn't seem to be happening today.
Manu, I still get some of the rear suspension bumping when braking hard. Its not as much anymore but still happens sometimes.
Turn off all riding aids in the simulation page (automatic shift, shift help, traction help, wheeling help and brake help) If anything, automatic clutch only.
