Cat Spraying – the things that everyone May practice
One of the most unpleasant behavior problems to deal with in cats is spraying. According to the Journal of Applied Animal Welfare Science, spraying is sadly a very common reason for cats being turned in to shelters. The good thing is that with a dedicated guardian and veterinarian working with each other, spraying may be overcome. It simply requires some detective work and a modest behavioral modification.
What's cat spraying?
Spraying, also called urine marking, is when a cat deposits urine onto a wall, door or other vertical (vertical) object. A cat won't squat to sprayas would occur with regular urination; rather, a cat that's spraying will probably be standing right up. If you see your cat in the act, you may also notice an vertical tail with some occasional twitching of the tail or the whole body. You'll also likely notice that the odor of the urine at the spray is far more pungent than pee deposited into the litterbox. The odor is due to additional items in the pee that ease communication, like pheromones.
One common cause of spraying is that some thing isn't right. For this reason, your first step must always be a visit to the veterinarian. In the Event That You and your vet have mastered a medical reason for spraying, then it is time to investigate behavioral causes:
Within feline social groups, urine marking is used as a kind of communication. By spraying at a specific area, a cat may let other cats know she has been there. Marking in a place also lets other cats know to stay away and builds a cat's land.
Anyone who has cats understands they can be very sensitive to changes in the surroundings. If you have moved to some other location, done significant renovations, then brought home a new family member, or lost one, you could discover that your cat starting to spray. One recent study from Applied Animal Behaviour Science looked at just how chemical cues and scent can assist a cat to feel comfortable in her surroundings and reduce stress.
Cats may leave"messages" about possible breeding experiences by spraying. That is the reason why so many cats that spray are unneutered males, although spraying may be located among fixed men and spayed and whole guys too.
If you reside in a home with more than one cat, spraying may occur if there's conflict between the cats. Even multiple cats that get along well may indicate inside the household, just due to the existence of other cats.
We can even see urine marking in houses with only one cat, where there are cats roaming freely outside and the house cat knows of the existence of the other cats.
As stated before, your first step is a visit to your veterinarian to rule out medical causes of the behavior. Any actions you take to fix this behavior won't work if your cat is ill. If it is behavioral, then step one is identifying the exact cause. These are the questions I'd ask myself:
1. Which cat is marking? In case you have multiple cats, very first, figure out which cat is doing the marking. One method is to limit the cats and let out one to roam at one time. If that does not work, you can contact your veterinarian to find out if it is possible to get a prescription for fluorescein. The dye can be removed from your walls too.
2. Is my cat neutered or spayed? Otherwise, doing so can help, particularly if additional cats are all around.
3. Is my cat being taunted by the neighbors? If neighborhood cats are the problem, keep window shades closed, in addition to doors. You can block screens, and access to some perches or areas to relax and look out the windows. You do not need to do this for every window, but focus on those where your cat is seeing other cats.
4. How do I give my own cats space? If you do have multiple indoor cats, raise the quantity of litter box options. A guideline to follow is one box per cat plus one.
Give cats more areas to sit high (cat trees, shelves, and window perches). Put multiple food and water bowls around the house, along with toys. The more there is of everything, the more likely it is that battle will fall.
Cleaning may Decrease cat spraying
Irrespective of the problem causing the marking, you want to make certain that you wash any feline spraying in your home properly. It's not enough to simply use water and soap to eliminate the odor. It may not smell for youpersonally, but if not cleaned correctly, your cat may definitely sense it. Use special enzymatic cleaners which are made especially to break down pet pee. Don't use any type of cleaner with an ammonia as this odor can stimulate more spraying since there's ammonia in urine.
How do your veterinarian help you reduce cat spraying?
If you are still fight cat spraying no more, discuss it with your veterinarian. Some cats may be placed on medication for anxiety to help alleviate the spraying.

just passing on some info.
1. make sure your name is exactly as your account here. Hwbot is Case sensitive and if you use an Uppercase letter in the name, but the letter is lowercase for your Nickname on BE, Hwbot will throw out the score as invalid.
here is the rules and guidelines to follow for submitting Hwbot scores:
- don't use multiple nicknames
- only post scores belonging to you
- 1280x1024x32bit only
- include a screenshot or a futuremark compareurl of the result
- format your score as follows: [hwbot]Name - score - system description [/hwbot]
- try not to use abbreviations. eg. 'opteron 146' is ok, '146' is too short.
- format processor overclock like 'A64 3200+ @ 2850Mhz' or 'A64 3200+ @ 2.85Ghz', format videocard speed as 'R9800 @ 350/333Mhz'.
- allowed score formats: '12345' or '12345 3dmarks' or '12345 marks'
- don't use text layout (bold, italic) or hyperlinks in your system description.
I am only passing on this info as I see a lot of thrown out scores when I do an update run with Hwbot. if your new score does not get updated, it is probably because of something wrong here. Most scores are being thrown out due to a problem with the nickname.

Because of the way we raise our cattle, people often refer to our cows as "Happy Cows". So it is only fitting that we should have a special relationship with the " La Vaquita Feliz " Carniceria in Melaque Mexico." La Vaquita Feliz" means "The Happy Cow" in Spanish. Carniceria is meat store. So here are a few photos from our recent visit to see Mr. Raul Delgado Pena at La Vaquita Feliz Carniceria in beautiful downtown Melaque, Mexico.

On the Scene: 'Sun' premieres at Hawaii Theatre
BY JOHN BERGER / email@example.com
The Hawaii Theatre was ground zero for Hawaii's indie film scene as director Tim Savage, DataHouse and Infor presented the world premiere screening of "Under the Blood-Red Sun," a film adaptation of Hawaii author Graham Salisbury's young-adult novel, on Saturday.
A crowd of more than 1000 — cast, crew, sponsors, investors, family members and friends — enjoyed a pre-show reception upstairs before a short formal program introduced the film. Savage described the screening as "a real dream come true" and thanked "my closest 1,000 friends" for being there.
Salisbury entertained the audience with a lengthy story about his experiences as a Cub Scout many many years ago. He then described the creative process though which a simple question — What must it have been like to be in Hawaii during World War Two? — became the story of the friendship between Billy Davis, a teenage Caucasian recently arrived from the US mainland, and Tomikazu "Tomi" Nakaji, a Hawaii-born Japanese-American.
The story is actually more about a young man being forced to assume adult responsibilities than it is about World War II or the internment of individual ethnic Japanese in Hawaii. The Japanese attack on Hawaii happens to be the catalyst but it could just as easily be Dad going away on a cattle drive (as in "Old Yeller") or being called up for military service.
Tomikazu "Tomi" Nakaji (Kyler Ki Sakamoto), Billy Davis (Kalama Epstein) and their friends enjoy life in Honolulu in the fall of 1941 despite their awareness of the wars being fought in Europe and Asia, and despite occasional run-ins with the neighborhood bully, Keet Wilson (Bryce Moore), whose family employs Tomi's mother as their housekeeper.
Things change for everyone in Hawaii after the Japanese attack — there's a curfew, there's a black out, there's martial law. Tomi's father, Taro Nakaji (Chris Tashima), a fisherman by trade, is arrested and put in a prison camp on Sand Island — Japanese fishing boats were suspected of being in contact with Japanese submarines, and Taro's boat wasn't flying an American flag on Dec. 7.
Tomi's grandfather (Dann Seki) is taken away by the FBI for unknown reasons. Their absence leaves Tomi forced by circumstances to become the man of the family.
A second story line follows Davis' experiences learning about Hawaii in general and about Japanese culture in particular. There are no dramatic surprises as these stories play out, but plenty for parents and children to talk about — culture, identity, friendship, prejudice, dealing with bullies, what is means to be an American — after watching it.
There will be a free public screening of "Under the Blood-Red Sun" with pre-show book signing and a red-carpet cast arrival at 6 p.m. Sept. 20 at the Pearl Harbor Visitor Center Lawn. Lawn chairs and outside food will be allowed.
"Under the Blood-Red Sun" is available for digital download at www.underthebloodredsunmovie.com
John Berger has been a mainstay in the local entertainment scene for more than 40 years. Contact him via email at email@example.com.

Sea Shepherd Uk v Fish & Fish Limited: Supreme Court Has Bigger Fish To Fry
The Supreme Court has allowed an appeal by Sea Shepherd UK (SSUK) that it should not be jointly liable in tort with its US parent, the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society (SSCS), for its part in an environmental campaign against the overfishing of Bluefin tuna in the Mediterranean.
As part of the "Operation Blue Rage" campaign on 17 June 2010, the "Steve Irwin", a ship owned and operated by SSCS, attacked a ship owned by Fish & Fish that was transporting tuna in fish cages.
Fish & Fish commenced legal proceedings and contended that SSUK had contributed to the attack on its ship by participating in fundraising for Operation Blue Rage and by recruiting volunteers.
At first instance Hamblen J found that the fundraising amounted to £1,730 and two volunteers helped source a pump for the "Steve Irwin" and spent a day working on the ship. He considered that these two matters were of minimal importance and played no effective part in the commission of the tort. The Court of Appeal disagreed, finding that the use of violent confrontation by cutting fishing nets was part of a common design and that it was not necessary to establish that what the SSUK did was of any real significance to the commission of the tort.
By a three to two majority the Supreme Court has overruled the Court of Appeal. The majority were reluctant to disturb Hamblen J's original decision. In their view SSUK played a passive role. As such it was properly open for Hamblen J to have found on the evidence before him that SSUK's part in the commission of the tort was of minimal importance.
Lord Sumption and Lord Mance dissented. Lord Sumption delivered a relatively lengthy judgment that focussed on the intention of SSUK and examined a number of copyright infringement cases. He argued that to establish joint liability a shared intention that an otherwise lawful act would assist a tort was required. In his view, the purpose of the Operation Blue Rage campaign was not limited to investigating illegal fishing but also to confront it. As such, Hamblen J's view that the campaign would not necessarily involve violence was unrealistic. It was irrelevant that both SSCS and SSUK both appreciated and perhaps hoped that a confrontation would not occur. Lord Sumption also found that although the financial contribution was small it was not trivial or negligible, and that it was clear that the efficient mobilisation of financial and logistical support was important to SSCS. Or as Lord Mance succinctly observed, every little helps.
Organisations that agree to campaign on behalf of others should ensure that they understand what it is that they are being asked to promote. Lord Sumption and Lord Mance both seem concerned by the way that SSCS used its international network to help it raise money to commit potentially violent and criminal acts. SSUK is perhaps fortunate that it was not very good at raising funds.

The United States men's national soccer team returns to familiar territory as it prepares for battle.
Team USA will play New Zealand on Tuesday at RFK Stadium in Washington D.C. in an exhibition game that marks the end of warm-ups and the start of the sprint toward the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia.
USA-New Zealand represents the last chance some American players will have to impress coach Jurgen Klinsmann, as they look to earn spots on the roster for next month's World Cup qualifiers against Mexico and Costa Rica. Those games will be Team USA's last outings in 2016.
USA has played New Zealand twice before, winning 2-1 at the FIFA Confederations Cup in 1999 and in an exhibition game in 2003.
RFK Stadium has staged 23 U.S. men's national team games, more than any other venue. Fans are hoping there truly is no place like home.
Here's how to watch USA vs. New Zealand online.
When: Tuesday, Oct. 11, at 8 p.m. ET

One of the nice things about starting a new project is the gathering of supplies.
I do like gathering supplies. A chance to go shopping with good reason, even if, perhaps, items not immediately necessary also make their way into my basket. Although, now that I have such a large collection of threads, my main supply requirement is for the fabric. I do like shopping for fabrics. My large stash of as yet unused fabrics is testament to that!
This new project, a pattern from CrossStitcher, required blue fabric, ideally a linen, but I'm using aida, for simplicity's sake, since it'll be turned into a cushion cover for my mother for Christmas (so I probably won't be doing regular updates) and I have other projects needed in the next few months. A minor problem when there's half a dozen birthdays in the run up to and just after Christmas, to say nothing of any cards. I know I started stitching for Christmas some months ago, but I have that sinking suspicion I haven't done nearly enough. (Isn't that always the way?!)
But it does mean I'll probably need more trips for suitable fabrics. Unless I find a large amount of white and various fabric-dyes. I still have quite a lot of that handy rustic stuff from IKEA.

Castle Combe Circuit opened just 18 months after Silverstone, in the summer of 1950, making it one of the longest established circuits in the UK. Until 1999, the circuit followed its original layout around the perimeter of the old air base. In that first year, a young Stirling Moss won a race here and over the next few years the likes of Mike Hawthorn, Colin Chapman and John Surtees thrilled huge crowds.
The 1960s and 70s were blighted by planning problems and the track didn't take off until 1976, when a lease was eventually obtained and the development of the circuit as a modern national racing venue began. The resurfaced, and now reshaped circuit provides what is generally recognised as the closest circuit racing in British motor sport.
The 1.85 mile (2.977km) undulating track runs clockwise and is renowned for having some of the most challenging corners among UK racing circuits. There are four right-handers, two fast left-handers, an esses section and a quick chicane. The lap record is currently held by Dan Clarke with 0:59.387, set in 2005.
The track no longer hosts major international car and bike championships, but is home to Club Lotus Track Day, Audi Driver International Track Day and karting – which is very popular. Visitors also have the chance to race their own cars or bikes around the circuit on track days which feature throughout the season. The circuit also hosts a monthly car boot sale.
Once visitors arrive, they find first class facilities in an attractive park-like setting. Some 15,000 lorry loads of earth have been landscaped into fine, banked viewing areas all around the circuit. The paddock area, overlooking Camp Corner, is accessible at a cost and has toilets and refreshments. Tarmac roads allow easy vehicle movement around the circuit's 240-acre site.

The one where the CD store opens
DK here as a guest blogger. I've got big news! The day has come. Victoria now has a storefront for pre-order of her first, published CD. She has been working long hours to get the ducks in a row. You can check it out (literally) at VixMusic.ecrater.com.
Guest artists have travelled great distances (some, thousands of miles)--thanks Ric and Garry and others. Tandy and Stephanie were in the studio this morning; Ric, until late last night. Cupcake is laying down tracks like crazy. It's all very exciting. BTW, the CD will have 4 traditional numbers and 10 of Victoria's new compositions.
So check out the other blog VixChristmasMusic for the ongoing story of the CD and the production of the music.
Several people have expressed a desire to order several CDs for special Christmas gifts e for friends, family, even work associates. The music has a special quality that is just filled with the Spirit. Here's the thing: the production run will be limited. Once they are gone, they are gone. The first run will be available in plenty of time for holiday gift-giving.
I hope that friends from all over find this to be a delightful addition to their holidays. Check back to this blog to hear occasional postings of new songs as they are completed. Follow the story at VixChristmasMusic. For those who want the actual CDs, order early. They will be shipping just as soon as they are published.
You can't believe the work it takes to prepare music for publication. But I think you'll agree with me, it is worth it. And when you're ready, give the new storefront a try. VixMusic

A message from your President
Kevin Leigh, President 2018
The President of the Old Southendian
Association 2018 is
Kevin Leigh
Sparta, 1978-1981),
Who would have imagined that over 35 years after leaving the school I would be introducing myself as the President of the Old Southendian Association? It is not something I foresaw. I must therefore thank Chris Sorrell (who I am very pleased to say will follow after my year as President) for asking me a number of years ago if I would like to become the Hon. Legal Adviser to the OSA after the previous holder of the office took a well-deserved retirement. This brought me onto the Executive and the rest, as they say, is history! My role as advisor has thankfully not required too much input from my professional life as a barrister. Indeed I think most people will know me more as the bloke with the camera at events asking you to smile for yet another photograph then posting them onto Facebook.
I begin by thanking the Association for asking me to be its next President. As someone for whom school years were spent only in the sixth-form and on the athletics track, I have always admired the camaraderie engendered by the school as pupils grew up together. As one of the biggest organisations of its kind in the UK, the OSA is a real treasure and a glowing tribute to all those who have kept it going over the decades and importantly made it bigger and better as time rolls by. I was therefore genuinely surprised and extremely flattered to be rung by Martin Stansfield one morning last year to be asked if I would accept the honour of being your President. I you remember the American sitcom 'Night Court' where a young inexperienced lawyer suddenly became a judge as no-one else was around above him on the long list of names to take on the role, I was fortunate to be at home when Martin rang.
I am looking forward to a year in which I hope to be even more part of the family of friends that is the OSA. I follow in the footsteps that many decent and deserving people have filled. I would like to see a record number of people turn out for events over the next year. Therefore I implore each of you to ask just one person you know that is not already a member to consider joining. If each one of you asked only one person we must surely create a substantial new intake so that if I leave one thing behind after my year it will be one, I sincerely hope, in which more new faces join with the familiar ones to enrich our Association.
Finally, tradition requires that I say something about myself. I do so diffidently as I have always enjoyed making a difference but from the shadows and not the limelight. As a practicing barrister since 1986 I have been involved mostly in property development and land law. I used to do a lot of crime, as lawyers say, both prosecuting and defending, until the early part of this century when I concentrated solely on my civil practice with only the occasional foray into the criminal courts. I married a lovely local lady called Vanessa and we have two wonderful children, Briony and Oscar. Our son is an old boy himself and I am looking forward to him attending our annual dinner this year along with my father Terry, another old boy. Please smile for the camera when you see me!

Ryobi Gas Trimmer
Adjustable handle, Attachments
Homelite gas trimmer
Lightweight, Focuses only on weed cutting functionality
Craftsman gas trimmer
Dual line functionality, reaches constrained areas
Troybilt weed eater
Big seventeen inch radius, Supports a multitude of attachments, Debris-shield
Weed eater gas trimmer
Lightweight, Easy to use, Debris shield & Adjustable handle
This is a two-cycle gas weed whacker that comes with a straight shaft making it easy to reach constricted areas. It is an easy to use garden appliance that can be used by anyone in the family can use from a child to a senior. This is possible since this versatile electric trimmer comes with an adjustable handle to suit the user's height. To make the lawn-work easier, Ryobi electric weed eater can be used with a number of attachments like tiller, edger or a blower. You can buy these tools directly from Ryobi or other online stores.
The cons of this trimmer are only a few. It is a bit heavy to use at a weight of twelve pounds. Another drawback is that unlike Orbitrim gas trimmer, Ryobi gas weed trimmer vibrates as you work on landscaping tasks. Having said that, Ryobi is trustworthy as it offers three years' warranty on shaft and parts. The Ryobi customer service is also very quick to answer your queries.
If you have a limited yard area, Homelite gas trimmer is perfect for you since it offers only weed cutting functionality. You cannot attach any other tools, unlike Orbitrim which supports multiple attachments. Although it does not come with much flexibility that does not mean it is a down market product. The trimmer is equipped with a powerful twenty-six cc engine that is enough for grass cutting. The other highlight of this yard trimmer is that it weighs only ten pounds and qualifies it to be in the category of lightweight trimmers.
Other positive features include seventeen inches cutting swath, grass deflector to prevent flying debris, a dual line head, and adjustable handle. But the non-availability of anti-vibration feature adds a little hassle to Homelite weed eater. The warranty offered by Homelite is only two years which is on the lower side if compared with Orbitrim.
This gas trimmer has a 25 cc engine and works well to undo the weeds, grass and small branches. The trimmer uses dual line functionality which results in precise cutting. The design of the shaft is quite unique since it is curved at the bottom and helps to reach constrained areas. The cutting path is of sixteen inches which are not bad and cuts the trimming time to a great extent.
Despite its user-friendly design, there are certain flaws about this weed whacker which we would like to highlight here. You will get out of gas quickly since the gas tank has a capacity of only 10 ounces. The other less wanted feature of this trimmer is that Craftsman weeder makes a lot of noise. The loudness is 108 dB which is more than the recommended sound level of 85 dB by OSHA.
Troybilt comes equipped with a big seventeen inches of radius which cuts the un-desired weeds in the first round. The Troybilt weed eater supports a multitude of attachments for trimming, edging or cultivating the lawn. Other advantages include a debris-shield to prevent the debris from flying around.
This weed eater from Troybilt does not come with anti-vibration technology, as a result, it causes a lot of fatigue to your arms after a prolonged usage. The trimmer weighs over twelve pounds that again makes it difficult to carry. Assembling Troybilt also takes a lot of time as compared to other trimmers like Orbitrim.
Weed eater was the first company to introduce gas trimmers in the 1970s. The gas trimmers then swiftly replaced the lawn mowers owing to better user experience, reasonable pricing, and precise cutting. Weed eater trimmer weighs only ten pounds and is comfortable to use with its long and straight shaft. The trimmer is not only easy to use but you can also assemble it in minimum time. It has a medium sized wheel of 15 inches' radius for grooming the lawn with fewer movements back and forth. 25 cc power is enough to run 2-cycle engine of this weed eater. Other features include debris shield and adjustable handle.
Now the downsides, the weed eater vibrates as you work and cause fatigue to hands and arms if you do not take frequent breaks. Some users have also reported stalling of this gas trimmer. This weed eater gas trimmer comes with a moderate warranty of two years.
You can call it a gas trimmer, weed whipper, weed whacker, weed eater or line trimmer. Here are some basics that you need to focus upon before and while using it.

What You Should Learn When Shopping For Funeral Caskets
When someone dies, one of the most essential things that will be required during the memorial service is a coffin. This is one of the major purchases that will have to be made. It is essential that you consider various factors when you are looking for funeral caskets. This will help you make a good decision about what to purchase.
There are various places where you can buy a coffin. This includes a funeral home. They usually have various types of coffins at different prices. You can also buy from retailers that specialize in making and selling coffins. The other alternative is to make an online purchase. Most online retailers will make a next day delivery. Ensure you are dealing with a reputable seller.
There are different types of coffins. The most popular types are those that are made from metal or wood. You can also buy coffins made from environmentally friendly products. There are also over-sized coffins, for individuals who are overweight.
You have the option of buying a do it yourself coffin. These kits can easily be assembled by anyone, you do not need to be a master craftsman to be able to put them together. This will give you the liberty to custom make the coffin as you like. It is also a cheaper option.
Consider your budget for the purchase. Shopping around and comparing prices helps. This is because coffin prices differ greatly. Ask for a price list to review various categories of coffins and there prices. Only but what you can afford, to avoid financial problems when the burial is over.
If you do not want to buy a coffin, consider renting one. This mostly appears when you want to carry out a cremation. Funeral caskets can be leased for use during the memorial service and the body later transferred to a lighter and more combustible material for cremation. The price paid will cover the cost of cleaning and maintain the coffin.

12 2012 Governor Chris Christie and the Dark Horses
Tonight on "Special Report with Bret Baier," the 12th edition of the final "Twelve in 2012" series.
Special Report will have profiled a dozen potential Republican presidential contenders. Now, look for a documentary special that lays out the state of the 2012 race inside the GOP.
Tonight's profile is on New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, but Bret will also look at some dark horses in the potential field.
Chris Christie
Age: 48
Current Position: Governor of New Jersey (elected in 2009)
Previous experience: U.S. Attorney, District of New Jersey (2002 to 2008); lawyer in private practice (1984 to 2001); Morris County, N.J. Board of Freeholders (1994 to 1998)
Education: Undergraduate degree from the University of Delaware (1984); law degree from Seton Hall University (1987)
Family: Wife, Mary Pat, two sons, two daughters
What you might not know:
Christie brought charges against more than 130 public officials and never lost a corruption case during his tenure as a federal prosecutor.
His Pitch: Tough Times, Tough Guy
Chris Christie seemed an unlikely choice to knock off incumbent Democrat Jon Corzine. Christie is overweight, pugnacious and worst of all for New Jersey, a Republican who had served in the Bush administration.
Not only did Christie win, but he went on to become a holy terror to the teachers unions and other government labor groups that had come to dominate the state in years of Democratic control. His arguments in town halls are the stuff of YouYube legend. Christie has the perfect confrontational, fed-up style for a time that FOX News Contributor Charles Krauthammer has dubbed the year of "Don't touch my junk."
His budget busting, tax cutting ways in a deep blue state have been an inspiration to Republican governors and gubernatorial candidates across the country. The argument is that if he can do it in Jersey, it can be done anywhere.
The Knocks: Social Situation
Christie is a Catholic and "personally pro-life," but made it clear in his candidacy that he was not interested in rolling back New Jersey's permissive abortion laws. It helped him win the liberal state's governorship, but it would complicate any national ambitions in a party adamantly opposed to elective abortion.
Christie also took a beating in his gubernatorial run for loans he had made to associates and even his propensity for getting speeding tickets. He could expect the same and worse if he launched a national campaign.
Power Play's Odds on Nomination: 20 to 1
Rick Perry
Age: 60
Current Position: Governor of Texas (took office in 2000, elected 2002, 2006, 2010), Chairman-Elect of the Republican Governors Association
Previous experience: Lieutenant Governor of Texas (1998 to 2000); Texas agriculture commissioner (1990 to 1998); state representative (1985 to 1990); family farmer (1977 to 1985); U.S. Air Force (1972 to 1977)
Education: Undergraduate degree from Texas A&M (1972)
Family: Wife, Anita, one son, one daughter
What you might not know:
Perry is the first Texas A&M Aggie to be governor of the Lone Star state. He was animal science major and a "yell leader" for football games.
His Pitch: Everything is Bigger in Texas
Texas will have more delegates in the 2012 Republican National Convention than any state. Just like other Republicans learned in 2000, Texas draws a lot of water in the GOP.
Plus, Perry earned a lot of credibility in the conservative movement for his frank talk during the 2009 Tea Parties about secession being a possible result of continued Washington overreach. His battles with the Obama administration over environmental and immigration policies have only strengthened his reputation with the GOP base. Perry also has appeal as a party switcher. He started his career as a Democrat and came to the GOP in 1990. That might hurt a less conservative candidate, but it would likely appeal to the Tea Party set.
The Knocks: Same Old Same Old
Perry and his predecessor George W. Bush are very different guys with very different styles and are even said to have a thorny relationship, but they look a bit alike, sound a lot alike and come from the same state. If there is residual Bush fatigue in the Republican Party, it would hurt Perry.
His other problem is that he doesn't have any career highlight outside of his political career. Republicans tend to dislike "career politicians."
Power Play's Odds on Nomination: 10 to 1
Bob McDonnell
Age: 56
Current Position: Governor of Virginia (elected 2009)
Previous experience: Virginia Attorney General (2006 to 2009); Virginia House of Delegates (1991 to 2005); state prosecutor (1989 to 1991); Business Manager, American Hospital Supply Corporation (1981 to 1986); U.S. Army Reserve, (1981-1997); U.S. Army (1976-1981)
Education: Undergraduate degree from Notre Dame (1976), MBA from Boston University (1980), law degree from Regent University (1989)
Family: Wife, Maureen, three daughters, two sons
What you might not know:
While in law school, McDonnell had an internship with Rep. Jerry Lewis (R-CA) and the House Republican Policy Committee. It was then that he decided to pursue politics as a career.
His Pitch: Mild-Mannered Conservative
McDonnell is a big social conservative, having even attended Pat Robertson's Regent University Law School. But even when the Washington Post hammered McDonnell day after day during his 2009 run for governor over 20-year-old writings about homosexuality and working moms, McDonnell didn't lose his cool. He even managed to win socially liberal Fairfax County.
While McDonnell said he had moderated his positions since his days as a law student, he stuck to his guns on his family values record as attorney general. Social conservatives would appreciate his constancy and moderates would appreciate his tolerant approach.
Known for his businesslike manner and knack for bipartisan cooperation, McDonnell might be considered a good role model for Republicans operating in purple states.
The Knocks: Too Soon
Virginia's one-term limit for governors has prevented The Mother of Presidents from birthing any in modern times. Lame ducks from the day they are sworn in, Virginia governors often make appealing candidates, but don't have time to first govern successfully and then turn to building a national organization.
When the veepstakes begins, watch McDonnell closely.
Power Play's Odds on Nomination: 20 to 1
Rick Santorum
Age: 52
Current Position: Attorney, Senior Fellow of the Ethics and Public Policy Center, FOX News Contributor
Previous experience: Senator from Pennsylvania (1995 to 2007), Congressman from Pennsylvania's 18th District (1991 to 1995)
Education: Undergraduate degree from Penn State University (1980); M.B.A. from the University of Pittsburgh (1981); law degree from the Dickinson School of Law (1986)
Family: Wife, Karen, four sons, three daughters
What you might not know:
Santorum and six other Republicans formed the "Gang of Seven." That group ferreted out the House Bank scandal (where dozens of lawmakers overdrew their accounts) and the House Post Office scandal. The latter eventually led to jail time for former House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Dan Rostenkowski.
His Pitch: Mass Appeal
Catholics are an increasingly important of the GOP coalition, and Santorum has great appeal for the conservative Catholics who are increasingly migrating to the party. He is a staunch social conservative and a passionate defender of his faith.
Moreover, Santorum can point to a strong record as reformer in Congress, where he helped bring about the reforms of the Republican Revolution.
The Knocks: Gone Too Long
Santorum's 18-point 2006 defeat by Democrat Bob Casey was a damaging blow to what had once been one of the rising stars of the GOP. It was a bad year for Republicans, but Santorum's take-no-prisoners style had made him a polarizing an unpopular figure in his home state.
Now out of office for nearly four years, it would be very hard for Santorum to muster the money and organization needed to get a presidential campaign off the ground.
Power Play's Odds on Nomination: 30 to 1
John Bolton
Age: 61
Current Position: Author, Speaker, American Enterprise Institute Fellow, FOX News Contributor
Previous experience: U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations (2005 to 2006); Under Secretary of State for Arms Control and International Security (2001 to 2005); Assistant Secretary of State for International Organization Affairs (1989 to 1993); Assistant Attorney General (1985 to 1989); U.S. Agency for International Development (1981 to 1983)
Education: Undergraduate degree from Yale University (1970), law degree from Yale University (1974)
Family: Wife, Gretchen, one daughter

Shingles were glued on one-by-one and then painted a wonderful Christmas Green. Three quarter view shows peaks of roof and trim.
The front door is painted green with black trim and you've probably already noticed that the shutters are painted like a candy cane (hard to miss!) and I've added painted greenery along the bottom edge of the house. Above the front door is a decorative arch with gingerbread trim and I've added a swag of greenery and attached a Christmas wreath on the door as a Housewarming gift to the new owners. The front steps are painted as a rock porch.
The house has three peaks with upper window that I have painted with Gingerbread and Candy Cane decorations. One in the front of the house and one on each side.
On the right side of the house, it looked a little bland to me and only had the one upper window. I felt like it needed windows downstairs too, so I painted two windows for the first floor to match the upper window. A closeup is shown of the handpainted windows, Candy Cane shutters, comma strokes with berries and greenery along the bottom edge.
Another closeup is shown of the decorative Christmas trim above the upper window. An even closer look at one of the upper windows shows the peppermint candy, the candy cane shutters and the gingerbread trim. The window panes that came with the dollhouse kit were just plain clear plastic. And again, that seemed a little dull and boring---so I used pen and permanent ink and decorated the window panes with a diamond pattern.
The left side of the house already has residents---two Redbirds have an adorable birdhouse hanging from a branch of the little tree I painted on the side. They are very happy to have such a nice home! A little closer look at the left side of the house shows the Redbird scene, the tree and the two painted windows. And a very close look shows one of the Redbirds singing. It sounds a lot like Jingle Bells to me.....and the other Redbird is flying up to their little birdhouse home, decorated with their own little wreath and red bow.
The inside was left unfinished......ready for the new owner to decorate.
I hope you enjoyed viewing the Candy Cane Cottage as much as I enjoyed building and painting it!

Well that's completely unfair of me but we switched the blog to use WordPress as of today. Very cool. I can update from my BB so you know what that means…..more posts! Yee Ha
But it also means that we will be able to categorize posts to make it easier for users to get more value.
I think the RSS feeds should have migrated automatically, add a comment and let us know whether all is working in Nimsoft blogland.

James Seaman - Butcher and Cattle
Dealer. This business is established this year (Date
given in advertising, W1874)
James Fryett - Butcher (K1896). James is 48
and is married to Caroline. It is likely that James has run this business for many years previously, The census records of 1871, 1881 and 1891 describe him as a 'Master Butcher' though living at various addresses around town. Their son, John,
who was born in 1870, now runs a butcher's shop of
his own at No
32 East Street. (C)
James Fryett - James is now 59 and has help in the shop from his nephew, William (Billy) Blowers. It is believed that Billy later takes over the business.
Note: Billy Blowers is the son of James sister, Sarah and her carpenter husband, Thomas Blowers, Thomas being a brother of the blacksmith William Blowers of No 42 High Street (Source: Alan John Blowers)
William Blowers - Fryett - Butcher and Famer. (K1908)
William Blowers - Fryett - Butcher (SRT1915) James Fryett dies this year at the age of 67.
...Thomas C Denny - Southwold Meat
Supply Company (K1924, SWCG1929).
William Blowers has now moved to take over the butcher's shop at No 23 Market Place. (K1924)
The late J B Harris, who spent his summers in Southwold as a boy between the wars, writes: "There was a variety of shops of all sorts and my parents usually had strong views as to which were or were not all right... There were three good butchers, but only Denny in the High Street opposite The Crown was ever patronised [by us]. The assistant in Denny's was Mr May, the local Scout Master." (From "Memories of Southwold 1920 - 1939" by J B Harris, reproduced by kind permission of his widow, Mary Harris.)
Thomas C Denny - Southwold Meat Supply
Company (K1933)
Herbert Wade - Butcher (K1937)
Wade - Butcher. The shop closes on 24th June
(SRB1940) Mr Wade is registered for 'non-combatant duties' as a Conscientious Objector. Read a local press account of the hearing (1939) here.
Note: there is a discrepany in Mr Wade's forenames as recorded in Kelly's Directory (Herbert) and the press report (Hugh Edward).
A Taylor & Sons - 'The Wireless
Shop'. This short-lived business closes on 1st April
this year (SRB1946) although an advertisement for it appears two months later in the Souvenir Programme of the Southwold Victory Celebrations. See right.
S Syner - Hairdresser (SER1951, CSP1953)
Helena Shreeve - Confectioner. This
business also serves as the local office for the Belle
and Grey-Green coach companies. (SER1957)

Do you believe in time travel? I do as anytime I smell burning leaves I am right back in the 8th grade and the sky is that impossible deep blue that you only see in the fall. Anny and I are raking leaves which will be followed by a big night of Monopoly, Chef Boy R Dee pizza and the drink of choice is RC Cola. Oh yeah, big time Saturday night in Kingman, IN circa 1963. Of course burning leaves is not exactly PC these days and while I really do sympathize with people who have allergies and I know it's not good for the environment BUT... I miss the smell of leaf smoke. Weenie roasts and hayrides...do kids get to do that anymore? We always used apple wood for the fire and I still love the smell of a wood fire but I'm starting to sound like a bit of a pyromaniac. There are other smells (not fire related, I promise!) that take me back too... bacon and coffee remind me of my Grandma as well as Pledge. I swear that woman Pledged anything that stood still. Time travel? Oh yeah, I am a believer.

Nothing smells better than burning leaves, except maybe when Mom started the back yard on fire and the neighbors had to call the fire department. did I mention Dad was Fire Chief at the time????? Well, he was out of town.....

I'm a beleiver too! Love the smell of camp fire smoke. And fresh cut wood or sawdust always makes me think of my Papaw.

And oak wood burning in a heater or fireplace in the winter(hard to think of fire today with 98 degrees outside).
Old spice takes me back to when I was little. I would insist I had to wear Old Spice just like Daddy did and he would put a tiny bit on me too.
Yep, Time Travel is for real.
Have a good weekend, Jan.

Article Title
Abstract 摘要
How is the body articulated in language and discourse during end-of-life decision making? How do individuals and their family members represent and define the relationships between person, body, and self? Recently, studies have been conducted on the decision-making process in the field of end-of-life care. Most researchers focus on patients' determination (vis-à-vis physicians' beneficence), which gives rise to a plethora of issues, such as patients' self-identity, self-continuity, relationships, freedom of choice, and rights.
In this paper, end-of-life decision making is considered from the perspective of the relationship between the body and one's personal identity. It is argued that the current bioethical discourse on individual autonomy and patients' rights is inadequate to address the ethical issues relating to end-of-life decision making. Instead of purely theoretically conceptualizing the sovereignty of the patient over his or her body, the author explores the issue in relation to the phenomenology of lived-body experience as described by the American bioethicist Margret P. Battin. The rights available to the patient are not the only significant issue during end-of-life decision-making; aspects of the patient's physicality are also relevant. Discourse on representations of the body and embodied action/autonomy aids our understanding of end-of-life choices. Finally, these body-related issues are linked with the Confucian understanding of what a person is. According to Confucian ethics, personal identity should not be viewed as an abstract "thing"; instead, it is defined by a person's relationships with others, especially family members, in his/her most vulnerable moments.

The Agreement
This is an agreement between Leonardo Solaas ("The Contractor"), the author of the selected idea ("The Employer"), and Readme 100 Temporary Software Art Factory ("The MetaEmployer"). It governs the development and execution of a piece of software-art ("The Work"), under the following terms:
The development of the process leading to the realization of the Work will be carried in two stages:
- An Open Call for ideas, plans or proposals for the Work
- The development of the Work itself, undertaken by the Contractor according to one of the ideas entered during stage (A).
During stage (A) any person will be allowed to submit any number of ideas at the site outsource.solaas.com.ar, without any limitations whatsoever, besides being likely ideas for a piece of software art.
On submitting an idea, participants in the open call will take into consideration:
- The Contractor's past works
- The Contractor's skills
- The Contractor's interests
At the end of stage (A) the Contractor will choose an idea among those submitted.
In selecting the winning idea, the Contractor will evaluate:
- That it is feasible with skills he possesses or can rapidly acquire
- That it is in accordance with his interests and past works
- That it can be executed within the allocated time frame
The author of the selected idea will instantly and automatically become the Contractor's Employer for the term of development of the Work.
The Employer will be notified of his new status on the e-mail address entered upon registration. The Employer's approval or confirmation of notification shall not be required for the development of the Work, since the act of submitting an idea implies permission to execute it.
The Contractor would prefer an Employer from a developed country, but he will also be open to consider proposals from emerging (or submerging) nations.
As author of the winning idea, the Employer will be awarded the full sum allocated for the project by the MetaEmployer, with the specific and unalterable purpose of paying the Contractor.
For the sake of simplicity, the MetaEmployer will transfer the aforesaid sum directly to the Contractor
The Employer will be granted the rights to the Work, but agrees to release it and its source code under the Creative Commons GPL license.
The Employer will be credited as author of the idea every time the Work is presented or exhibited in any form or context.
The completed Work will be introduced to the Employer, the MetaEmployer and the world at large during the Readme 100 festival, taking place on November 4-5, 2005, in the State and City Library of Dortmund, Germany.
The submission of an idea implies the unconditional acceptance of the terms stated in this agreement.

Little Braap Racer was launched in January of 2016 out of my tiny apartment in Washington State while I laid around with a broken leg. The literal days on end spent sitting on my couch helped me finally muster the gusto to launch the enamel pin business I had been researching and wanting to for the past year.
I have since moved my operations to a full room in a house (!!), and do not miss my former tiny-apartment-office-kitchen at all! If I'm not filling orders or trying to understand what the heck is eating all of the plants in my garden*, I work in marketing and graphic design and force my two dogs and husband to create as tall of a dog-pile on our couch as often as possible.
I'm glad you found me, and I hope my goods help you feel like you found a little slice of you, too. :)
*literally that one line makes me sound like I'm roughly 52 years old and I'm so okay with it?

In the world of gardening, the phrase "too much of a good thing" can take on extra meaning. During the cool winter that Orange County has experienced, many people have been over-watering their plants, especially container plants.
According to Wade Roberts, director of Sherman Gardens in Corona del Mar, it is common to give too much water to outdoor plants, and many plants fall victim to root rot as a result. A hanging plant commonly known as Concord blue is particularly susceptible. "They don't like the cold," Roberts said, and too much water can aggravate the problem.
If you have a Concord blue and winter has left it looking unhealthy, Roberts recommends giving it less water, trimming the plant back and waiting for the warm weather to restore it.
Over-watering can also plague bulbs in the garden. Many people keep their tuberous begonias too wet when they first plant them, Roberts said.

Table of Contents:
2. [3] But let it be granted to begin with that the whole theory of conduct is bound to be an outline only and not an exact system, in accordance with the rule we laid down at the beginning,1 that philosophical theories must only be required to correspond to their subject matter; and matters of conduct and expediency have nothing fixed or invariable about them, any more than have matters of health. 2. [4] And if this is true of the general theory of ethics, still less is exact precision possible in dealing with particular cases of conduct; for these come under no science or professional tradition, but the agents themselves have to consider what is suited to the circumstances on each occasion, just as is the case with the art of medicine or of navigation. 2. [5] But although the discussion now proceeding is thus necessarily inexact, we must do our best to help it out.2. [6] First of all then we have to observe, that moral qualities are so constituted as to be destroyed by excess and by deficiency—as we see is the case with bodily strength and health (for one is forced to explain what is invisible by means of visible illustrations). Strength is destroyed both by excessive and by deficient exercises, and similarly health is destroyed both by too much and by too little food and drink; while they are produced, increased and preserved by suitable quantities. 2. [7] The same therefore is true of Temperance, Courage, and the other virtues. The man who runs away from everything in fear and never endures anything becomes a coward; the man who fears nothing whatsoever but encounters everything becomes rash. Similarly he that indulges in every pleasure and refrains from none turns out a profligate, and he that shuns all pleasure, as boorish persons do, becomes what may be called insensible. Thus Temperance and Courage are destroyed by excess and deficiency, and preserved by the observance of the mean.2. [8] But2 not only are the virtues both generated and fostered on the one hand, and destroyed on the other, from and by the same actions, but they will also find their full exercise in the same actions. This is clearly the case with the other more visible qualities, such as bodily strength: for strength is produced by taking much food and undergoing much exertion, while also it is the strong man who will be able to eat most food and endure most exertion. 2. [9] The same holds good with the virtues. We become temperate by abstaining from pleasures, and at the same time we are best able to abstain from pleasures when we have become temperate.

It takes a while for patterns to establish on shows, but we're starting to see a certain set of events the writers always turn to. First, Melanie and Dutch have some sort of problem and it's always resolved in the end. Second, the initial job is complicated midway through the episode and the characters have to regroup at HQ to fix the problem. There are a couple others that the writers return to frequently--flashbacks and Cash's geek creations--but none that are in every single episode.
Since the season is only seven episodes and the episodes are as wacky as they are, this isn't really a problem yet. The show is still fresh enough that these repeating patterns take secondary roles in each episode. Still, if the show does get renewed (there's a decent chance of that happening), I'd like to see some changes.
As for "Take The Movie And Run," the whole setup of having to transport the DVD was ridiculously stupid, but the episode, like the rest, has an upbeat tempo and makes good use of the Comic-Con setting.
Score: 8.7/10

Today, Dean Takahashi wrote up a new game distribution technology, called OnLive, that's announcing at the Game Developers Conference this evening. He feels that it has the potential to destroy retail, with a new technical model of games executed on the server side, enabling gameplay (video) instantly streamed back to the player. This may be a valid threat to retailers, and it's a danger I've warned retailers about for years. Specifically, I first warned of it because PS3's cell technology seemed focused on the fast video decompression necessary to this sort of system. But, despite the breathless adoration of Venturebeat, I would point out three things: Continue reading "Another Streamed Video Game Play"
Blockbuster and the Democratization (or not) of Settop Boxes
Blockbuster today announced that it'll be launching a new initiative allowing download of movies to a proprietary settop box (similar to Netflix's Roku). It has been noted that there are getting to be a lot of awfully similar boxes out there trying to claim the living room (Roku, AppleTV, Tivo, and to some extent the game consoles). I don't believe that Blockbuster's entry is meaningless, though, as their audience is not that of Apple or Netflix, so, if this can work, it will probably be incremental to that market.

Unity Offers VR Ads For An Exciting New Film In Saw Horror Team.At Unity, we want to redefine just how folks consume marketing and advertising," says Agatha Bochenek,

"At Unity, we want to redefine just how folks consume marketing and advertising," says Agatha Bochenek, Head of Mobile and VR/AR Advertising at Unity Technologies.

Our objective is always to enable marketers to build high-quality, interesting content rapidly that'll produce memorable experiences, and may seamlessly reach people across all VR platforms."Aided by the quality of the Saw franchise rotating roughly around "escape room" horror situations, this relationship with Lionsgate for Jigsaw is an apparently perfect introducing point for Virtual Room thinking about there's lots of source material to supply unsettling and unforgettable set components and experiences for Jigsaw VR.

Some may have seen my Crystal Clear blog post last year, featuring the fantastic Banton Frameworks. Well, they're coming back and better than ever before.
This time, however, they're back with their new range 'Profile', a minimal sunglasses collection.
Made from premium Italian acetate, these beauts come in four different matte finish colours (black, tortoise, grey and blue). Each one as stunning as the other.
From my experience with Banton, their products are not only gorgeous but they're robust enough so they don't feel precious but precious enough to get noticed.
You can check out the Profile Kickstarter page, here. Watch the stunning video if anything else – it's worth it for pure aesthetics.

Chaos to confidence Leankit's PD model
An Agile Case-study: From Chaos to Confidence: How LeanKit Struggled with Rapid growth and Regained Predictable Delivery
As a company, LeanKit have believed in Lean, Kanban, Agile & DevOps since our founding. We've always talked about how important these ideas are – in the community and inside our company.
But that doesn't mean that doing those things in practice has been easy. We're a very fast growing startup in a very competitive market space. We had tripled in size in less than a year and nearly came apart at the seams at times.
In fact, in the fall of 2015, our technology team were having a very hard time. We were out of sync with our sales & marketing partners and facing a lot of internal conflict and technical debt.
But we came together as a team and worked hard to implement a well coordinated system of values, team structure, cadences, and standard practices. We're now in a much better place as a team and generating much better results for our company.
There are no one-size-fits-all answers for companies. I can't promise that if you copy LeanKit you'll succeed. But we do think we have some interesting lessons learned to share and that you just might be able to pick up some ideas that you can take back to your company.
About Jon Terry:
Jon is co-Chief Executive Officer of LeanKit. Before LeanKit, Jon held a number of senior IT positions with hospital-giant HCA and its logistics subsidiary, HealthTrust Purchasing Group. He was among those responsible for launching HCA's adoption of Lean/Agile methods.

'Dragon Ball Super': Gohan's brutal fate in Tournament against Dyspo & Toppo
Gohan's fate in Tournament Of Power looks decided as he lined up to battle Dyspo and Toppo.
"Dragon Ball Super" is getting more interesting with each passing episode. We all know that the Tournament Of Power is in its final stage with only seven minutes left. Universe 7 and Universe 11 have been battling to win the tournament since episode 122, "For One's Own Pride! Vegeta's Challenge to Be The Strongest!!" The anime show will release Episode 124, "The Fiercely Overwhelming Assault! Gohan's Last Stand!!" on January 21. As the title suggests, the show will focus mainly on Gohan who will fight Toppo, a member of Pride Trooper. The preview of chapter 124 is already out.
The end of Gohan?
Fans might witness Gohan at his best as he will give his everything to defeat Dyspo. Frieza is expected to help Gohan during the battle with the fastest warrior in the Tournament Of Power.
According to the spoilers, the episode will be a nightmare for Gohan and according to ComicBook, the trailer shows Dyspo turn his attention to Gohan after his attacks had no effect on Freeza. It means Gohan might have to plan a strategy with Frieza to counter his opponent, who is incredibly fast. The spoilers further suggest that Gohan's upcoming plan is for Freeza to surround the two fighters with death beams.
The reports further indicate that the Episode 124 of "Dragon Ball Super" will be the end of Gohan at the hands of Dyspo. There are rumors that suggest his fate will be decided in episode 125 against Toppo. Gohan has played a vital role in the journey of Universe 7 thus far in Universe Survival arc. Gohan's elimination will put Universe 7 in grave danger.
More regarding 'Dragon Ball Super'
Fans might also witness a continuing battle between the pair, Vegeta and Goku, and mighty Jiren. A synopsis, earlier this week, mentioned a betrayal involving Frieza. The synopsis said that Frieza told Dyspo that he wants to join Universe 11 in the case they use the Super Dragon Balls to resurrect him. However, it looks highly unlikely now. It's worth noting that the warrior is not an original member of Universe 7, and joined the team at the request of Son Goku.
Chapter 125 of "Dragon Ball Super" is titled "Advent of the God Of Destruction, Toppo! There is Only Overwhelming Power!!" Toppo, the leader of Pride Trooper, will get the title, God of Destruction, which means he will possess Hakai Energy.
Fans might see Android 17 battling with Toppo in this part of the show. Stay tuned for more entertainment updates of anime shows.
