It's very exciting today on Bookaholics as we have our first ever guest blogger. I would like to welcome Marie Egles Carhart who is going to tell us about an action adventure, SciFi, book written by her late brother Joe. Thank you so much for having me on Bookaholics today. I really appreciate this opportunity to share my story with you.
The Kabrini Message is a sci-fi novel written by my late brother, Joe (J.R. Egles), back in 1987. I only recently discovered Joe’s manuscript (hand typed by our mother) in a box in my attic. It was in a manilla envelope that just said, “Joe’s Book” in my mother’s handwriting. The whole “story-behind-the-story” can be read on the two-part blog post I did, so I won’t repeat the entire thing here. http://kabrinimessage.blogspot.com/2012/11/the-story-behind-story.html http://kabrinimessage.blogspot.com/2012/11/the-story-continues.html But basically, after reading The Kabrini Message and becoming entranced by it, I decided it must be published. This “message” just had to make it out of the attic and into the hands of the public. I know everything happens for a reason, when and how it’s supposed to. I believe my “message” in finding this forgotten jewel was to get it out there and right now, twenty-six years after it was written, just must be the right time. I also wanted to make sure The Kabrini Message was finally published as a gift to both my brother and our mother who always believed in him. I have been “on a mission”…yes, a woman obsessed! But the journey has been a fun, fascinating and educational labor of love and I am thrilled and so very grateful to say that as of January 18, 2013, more than a quarter of a century after it was written, The Kabrini Message is a published novel! Here is a blurb for The Kabrini Message. I really hope you will all enjoy it and thank you again! An alien race. A shocking message. Let the evolution begin… During an archaeological dig in Greece, Jeffrey Driscoll stumbles upon a miraculous find: ancient crystals with celestial coordinates that will connect humankind with the Kabrini, a highly advanced alien civilization. His discovery leads him on a quest from the jungles of Africa to the Islands of Greece, from the streets of London to the tombs of Egypt, from WashingtonD.C. to Los Angeles, Jamaica, and Vienna, and finally to the deepest depths of space and Earth’s first global space effort, the Legacy mission. When Driscoll Mining and the U.S. Army complete deep space construction of the Kabrini communications network, the Legacy mission is deemed a success. But a dangerous terrorist group hungers for revenge, and Driscoll will stop at nothing to save the project. As his obsession with the Legacy mission spirals out of control, he risks losing everything—his company, his grasp on reality, and the one thing he’s ever truly loved: his wife. And when humankind finally makes contact, they discover the Kabrini Message isn’t exactly what they expected to hear… Thank you Marie it has been lovely to have you and find out the story behind your brothers book. I am sure the bookaholic readers will enjoy this.

Meaningful Talk Makes People Happier
One of the life-giving practices in my Spiritual Rhythm of Life is to engage in a deep and meaningful conversation at least once a week. Sometimes this happens over a meal and overlaps with another practice of sharing a good meal with someone. The conversation usually centers around theology, life issues, spiritual challenges, relationship, etc. This practice makes me feel fully alive.
The University of Arizona and Washington University in St. Louis recently released the results of a study in the March issue of Psychological Science. In the study they explored the differences in conversations of those who describe themselves as happy from those who describe themselves as unhappy. What they found out is that "small talk" doesn't "cut it." "What's important to a happy life is meaningful and deep conversations.

Dr. Dean Blevins expanding international leadership responsibilities...
My friend and Chairman of the Youthfront Board of Directors, Dr. Dean Blevins continues to expand his scope of international leadership in theology and Christian Education. Here is the Press Release announcing his two new leadership roles;
Dean G. Blevins, Professor of Christian Education and Director of the Master of Arts in Christian Education Degree Program at Nazarene Theological Seminary recently accepted two new leadership roles that provide new responsibilities for the global church and greater influence within the academic discipline of Christian Education.
On November 24, 2009, Dr. Blevins was voted President-Elect of the Religious Education Association, the oldest organization guiding professional research and academic teaching in global educational ministry. The mission of the Religious Education Association (REA) is to create opportunities for exploring and advancing the interconnected practices of scholarship, research, teaching, and leadership in faith communities, academic institutions, and the wider world community. Founded in 1903, REA now combines professional practitioners, academics, and research theorists from around the world. Dr. Blevins, who has been a member of the REA Board of Directors, will serve a three-year term that includes serving as program chair of the annual meeting in 2010 and officially taking the role of President in 2010-2011.
In addition to this new profession role, the Board of General Superintendents also recently appointed Blevins as the USA Regional Education Coordinator and Consultant for the Church of the Nazarene. Under this new role, Dr. Blevins will serve as chair and resource for the USA Regional Course of Study Advisory Committee as well as serve as USA representative to several global committees including the International Course of Study Advisory Committee (which oversees planning for ministry education around the world) and the International Board of Education. Working with Clergy Development, Blevins will resource educational institutions in planning ministry education, and be responsible for other program areas including the next Global Theology Conference.
Commenting on the two new positions Dr. Blevins stated, “It is gratifying to have the opportunity to influence the future of my academic field and also serve the general church at the same time. I am thankful to NTS for providing a context where academic passion and ministry dedication merge together. I am also grateful to an institution that allows me space to serve in these global positions. Undoubtedly the experiences I gain from these leadership roles will enrich students and ministry preparation at Nazarene Theological Seminary.”
Dr. Blevins has maintained an active role in several academic organizations including the North American Professors of Christian Education, and the Wesleyan Theological Society where he has chaired the practical theology section for nine years. He has also served the general church as a consultant to children, youth and adult ministries; and recently contributed to a new denominational study concerning family ministry. In October, Dr. Blevins was re-elected Chairman of the Board of YouthFront, a regional youth ministry based in Kansas City with national education programming in youth ministry and youth spiritual formation.

Got Teens? Pre-Teens? Engage is for you!
Parents, mark your calendars for Thursday, March 25th, 2010 because this night is for you!
It's no secret that parenting can be tough, especially during the adolescent years. If we're honest, we might even admit that there are times it would be easier to give up. BUT, somewhere deep inside we know better and the truth is that we just might need a little encouragement along the way.
At Engage, hundreds of parents from around the city will gather for an evening of resourcing, connecting, networking, laughter and understanding with keynote speaker, Marv Penner. That night, Marv will lead our discussion with real life stories, humor, and practical ideas as to what it means to parent intentionally.
There's more! At Engage, you'll be able to meet representatives from dozens of area organizations and agencies that understand the challenges you face and are ready to serve you.
This is a night you don't want to miss. We hope you will join us:
Main Session with Marv Penner at 7:00 pm
Coffee & Conversation with Marv 9:00 pm (optional)
Youthfront Auditorium
Shawnee Mission KS 66205

AzarExport CitationBiBTeX, EndNote, RefManPatent Citations (14), Referenced by (3), Classifications (9), Legal Events (4) External Links: USPTO, USPTO Assignment, EspacenetFracture fixation systemUS 6660009 B1Abstract A nail fixation system and method for the fixation of fractures of the distal radius. The system has a nail inserter and a plurality of arcuate nails, each nail having a head end and a pointed end. Each nail is secured by its head end in the nail inserter and fed through one of several holes cut into the distal radius proximal to the fracture. The curvature of each nail and the angulation of each hole allows each nail to travel through the medullary canal of the radius and then have its point be positioned in a specific site internally on the distal epiphysis. Once the distal radius is fixed the entire wrist is placed in a cast for several weeks until the radius is healed sufficiently for the removal of the nails.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention is a set of surgical nails, a nail handler for inserting the nails into the radius, and a method of using the aforementioned tools to reduce and internally fix a fracture of the distal radius. Typically there are four nails used in the procedure. Each nail is made of stainless steel, is circular in cross section, has a headless first end and a pointed second end, and is 150 mm in length. Depending on the size of the radius to be reduced, the nails are either 1.5 mm or 2 mm in thickness. The shank of each nail is arcuate adjacent the pointed end, with the amount of curvature varying from nail to nail.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is an elevation view of a nail and insertion tool of a fracture fixation system according to the present invention.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention is a fracture fixation system for fixation of the reduced fragments of a distal radius fracture. As shown in FIG. 1, the invention includes a nail insertion tool 10 which is used to insert an arcuate nail 20 into a distal radius. Several arcuate nails 20, 30, 40, 50, shown in FIGS. 2A-2D, each having a distinct, predetermined curvature, are required for the procedure. Each arcuate nail 20, 30, 40, 50 is preferably formed from a straight 150 mm stainless steel nail 60 (FIG. 2E) having a sharp point at a second end 62 and a headless first end 64, the nail being bent to the required degree of curvature. The headless first end 64 of the nail 60 is formed by a straight crosscut orthogonal to an axis through the shank of the nail 60. The thickness of the nails 20-60 may vary between 1.5 and 2 mm depending on the size of the fractured bone to be fixed. Nail strength is approximately 410 Brinell (41 Rockwell).

The Color Indigo: Wikileaks: Microsoft aided former Tunisian regime
Cables leaked by Wikileaks show that Microsoft provided IT training to law enforcement officials in Tunisia, before the country threw off its repressive regime in 2011. Photo credit: Nasser Nouri on FlickrAccording to a cable sent by the US embassy in Tunis on 22 September, 2006, Microsoft was so keen to get the Tunisian government to drop its policy favouring open-source software that it agreed to set up a "program on cyber criminality" to cover training. The deal also entailed the company giving the Tunisian regime, headed by President Zine El-Abidine Ben Ali, the original source code for Microsoft software.
"Through a program on cyber criminality, Microsoft will train government officials in the Ministries of Justice and Interior on how to use computers and the internet to fight crime. As part of this program, Microsoft will provide the GOT [Government of Tunisia] with original source codes for its program," the cable read. "In theory, increasing GOT law enforcement capability through IT training is positive, but given heavy-handed GOT interference in the internet, Post questions whether this will expand GOT capacity to monitor its own citizens," it continued.
Tunisia 'not free'Freedom House's assessment of Tunisia in 2010 rated the country as 'not free'. It noted that Ben Ali "tightly controlled" elections and that the government harassed and imprisoned bloggers, journalists and political opponents. At the start of 2011, Ben Ali's regime was overthrown, kicking off the so-called Arab Spring.
The partnership agreement between Tunisia and Microsoft was signed at a forum in South Africa in July 2006. At first, neither party would give the embassy any information about the terms of the deal. In September, however, Microsoft Tunisia's director general Salwa Smaoui gave an overview to the US consulate's Economics Office (abbreviated in the cable as 'EconOff').In addition to giving the Tunisian government access to its source code — most likely to allay fears about the company's "American-ness", according to Smaoui — Microsoft agreed to establish an 'Innovation Centre' in Tunisia for "developing local software production capacity". The cable notes that this would address the regime's concerns over local employment.
The company appears to have agreed to train handicapped Tunisians in IT. Smaoui suggested this was probably in view of the fact that the Tunisian leader's wife, Leila Ben Ali, ran a charity for handicapped Tunisians. Microsoft also offered to help the government "upgrade and modernise its computers and networking capabilities", according to the embassy.
Ultimately, for Microsoft the benefits outweigh the costs. – US embassy cable "In turn, the GOT agreed to purchase 12,000 licences to update government computers with official Microsoft software, rather than the pirated versions that have been commonly used, according to one Microsoft employee. Since 2001, the GOT adopted an open software policy, using only free software programs. "Additionally, future GOT tenders for IT equipment will specify that the equipment must be Microsoft-compatible, which is currently prohibited by the Tunisian open software policy," the cable added.
In early 2010, the US warned that state censorship of the internet was increasing in Tunisia. When the revolution came a year later, the government briefly tried to suppress online information about the dissent that would topple it within days. Open-source oppositionThe Tunisian cable is just one of several that appeared last week, providing details of Microsoft's efforts against open-source rivals. For example, a cable sent in February 2010 described how Microsoft and the Business Software Alliance (BSA) met with Thai officials to argue that their government was wrong to promote open-source software as a way to fight piracy.
Another cable, sent from the Caracas embassy on 16 June, 2006, outlined Microsoft's opposition to a draft Venezuelan law that mandated open-source software for governmental use. It revealed that a Microsoft general manager had shown US EconOff officials an internal memo from Venezuela's state oil company, Petróleos de Venezuela (PDVSA).According to the cable, the memo "claimed that all US software companies had a 'back door' mechanism whereby the US government could at any time access information, citing the supposed Calea Law (United States Law of Assistance in Communications for Security Systems)".

Array of VL53L0x sensors
I would like to use more than one VL53L0X, laser distance sensor that works in the same time, next to another, and they have to measure slightly different distances.
Q: Is it possible to use an array of VL53L0X laser distance sensors without them interfering with one another?

\$\begingroup\$ I would have thought the chances all depend on the separation - look at the beam divergence in the data sheet. You should look into splitting up the capture time, so only one sensor is on at any one time, but do it fast to get a sudo real time response. \$\endgroup\$ – Tim Mottram Apr 25 '17 at 7:49
ST mentioned in their webinars that they've done this kind of testing before and found you can have many sensors operate well without any synchronization. Each sensor only knows the precise timing of its own laser light and therefore rejects the other sensors' light as being just random ambient noise.
sivnsivn
A look at the datasheet shows a few significant parameters:
The measurement angle, which is 25 degrees. You'll need to determine whether this gives you enough detail to make the measurements you need.
The accuracy, which seems to vary according to distance but they give values from 3% to 12% depending on distance and other conditions, again, you'll need to determine whether this is sufficient to resolve the "slight" differences in distance you're looking to measure.
The typical minimum (8ms) and maximum (23ms) times it takes to carry out a measurement. You would need to make sure you don't carry out measurements at the same time using sensors whose fields of view overlap with each other, and that depends on their physical positioning. At worst case, with 8 overlapping sensors, you would be able to carry out about 5 measurements a second if you carry out each one in turn, so you would need to establish whether that was quick enough to pick up any movement you are looking to measure. The best case is that the sensors don't overlap at all, so you can measure continuously (in this case, that means upwards of 40 times a second).

Terminals For Dummies | A Very Public Affair
Posted by Mohamed Rizwan on April 7, 2011 · Leave a Comment
How to capture the spirit of flight? A photo-story by The New York Times on the recently re-opened TWA Flight Center shows us Finnish-American architect and industrial designer, Eero Serannani’s glorious response.
Completed in 1962, Serannani’s building is a striking, futurist space with bold, sweeping lines that resembles a retro-future space ship. In truth, Serannani’s inspiration was a bird with its wings spread in full. Regardless, the building a spectacular achievement that looks every bit as modern today as it did close to fifty years ago.
Compare this to the Dubai-Lite airports closer to home. We may be building more than ever but as the new airports in Bangalore, Hyderabad, Mumbai and New Delhi suggest, scale is no substitute for imagination. The new airports are big and shiny, but they are little more than malls with gates.
Given that airports play a powerful role in making first impressions, the new airports are lost opportunities. As with the TWA Flight Center, great airports give flying a sense of occasion. They instill a sense of child-like joy about the very idea of being airborne and that this, the airport, is where you come to get your fix. The current crop simply lack the magic.
One city’s loss though, can be another city’s gain.
There are plenty of airports that still need mending and building. Mayors and airport authorities would do well to make the most of these opportunities and commission architects with a little more in their oeuvre than those involved in making our one-style-fits-all terminals.
Will we see a sculpturally led Nagpur airport? A modernist rendition in Patna? Or a Swiss-Indian stunner by Herzog + DeMeuron in Kolkata?
Whatever the ambition, all parties involved could do well to study Saarinen’s efforts.

I have stayed here on business and was in a room so small I thought it was a broom cupboard; beds are not very comfortable . convenient to central london so went back for a leisure weekend; Oh no double room was just as small and the service is not very good. would be ok if you want a cheap weekend away but this is classified as a four star and chare accordingly. Unfortunately they dont offer 4 star service to warrant the high prices. spend more and you will get more!!

We stayed at the Hotel Russell on 6 April for one night. We booked a theatre break and as my friend works in the hotel industry we were able to upgrade for a small additional fee. We had a suite with two double beds and great views overlooking Russell Square. The beds were I think the most comfortable I have ever slept in we had a great nights sleep as the room was very quiet. The staff were very help and the breakfast was substantial. There is a Tesco Local just around the corner so if you don't want to pay hotel prices at the bar then there are plenty of options on offer at the supermarket. The tube station is a hop skip and a jump away from the hotel and the British Museum is a 10 minute walk. The park has a cafe and as the weather was so nice, for a change, we had a chillaxing cup of tea watching the world go by. This is an ideal location as it is only a 5 to 10 minute walk from Euston and Kings Cross train stations. We booked through SuperBreaks and so the price was very reasonably and would definitely recommend this hotel.
Room Tip: Get a room with a view of Russell Square if possible.

Lovely hotel but would be far too expensive for my budget, it was a gift. Stayed in a very small double room overlookinmg the backyard, good view over the rooftops of the London skylins, as long as you didnt look down.Breakfast very good but quite a long queue.Ideally situated across the Square from the Tube station. A room at the front of the hotel would have a great view of the Square.Walkable from the West End.

14 helpful votes “Great Location - shame about breakfast!”
I was booked into this hotel by my corporate travel agent whilst in London for work meetings. That said the location (in the WestEnd close to "Theatre Land") is excellent even if you are in London for pleasure. The hotel itself is large and has fantastic architecture but is in need of some updating and re-decoration. The bedroom I was initially allocated was completely unsuitable. My advice is avoid room 114 - it is laughingly described as a suite. What they actually mean is that it's a poky cubbyhole with the bathroom down a steep staircase as there is no room on the same level as the bedroom. I was immediately moved once I made the receptionist aware that the room was unsuitable. The second room was far better and very comfortable. The biggest problem this hotel has is at breakfast. I was there mid week and the breakfast room was so busy that I had to wait 20mins to be seated. Luckily I had time to spare before my meeting - had it been an early meeting I would have probably had to skip breakfast. I dread to think how long I would have had to waited had I not been alone or at a weekend. Then when I finally got a table I must say the quality and standard of food was not up to 4 star standard. Cheap ingredients poorly prepared. Overworked waiting staff and the restaurant was clearly being run on a skeleton! Long cues at the buffet didn't help either. All in all if you just want a bed and a base great. But if you want a special treat there are a number of better small boutique hotels in the area.

12 helpful votes “Old style with modern convenience”
The Hotel is a mix bag with more positive points than the average rate may imply. First the location: perfect for West End and west end attraction. In Bloomsbury with the cultural attraction of British Museum and Universities just around the corner, on the doorstep of Covent Garden without the hassle of day visitors, easy walk to Leicester square and the Thames. Relaxed, calm and well connected. Breakfast room, restaurant and bar of old style and charm well kept.Service attentive and friendly although sometime not so competent: concierge of old school with information and tips always good.Rooms? it depends. Ask to see the room and keep the right to choose alternatives. Some rooms are very good, others not so spacious and not so well appointed. A small surcharge gives upgrade that it is worth considering. If you keep your expectations moderate and you like the location (good run around Russell square gardens) the Russell can become a second home in town.
Room Tip: Rooms not facing the square are quieter

Hotel is beautiful from outside and in. Lovely marble staircase, comfortable bar and dining area. Rooms are nice size and again comfortable, good spec, huge bed, ensuite with shower over bath. Nice furniture etc. Staff generally pleasant.Location is fantastic: next to the tube, but in fact just walk to covent garden/leicester square/soho, oxford street, theatre land, and really not far to trafalgar square and the Houses of Parliament etc. if you are doing the tourist thing. Gripes: Wifi needs to be paid for as extra (at these prices why not just include it for everyone?). Breakfast is pre-cooked buffet style, generally rather tepid, and very very over-priced. If not included just go to a pret a manger or other cafes just around the corner.

Rail transport in New Zealand | New Zealand | Fandom
Rail transport in New Zealand, Transport in New Zealand, Three foot six inch gauge railways, Rail transport by country
The current New Zealand railway network.
Template:NZ rail Rail transport in New Zealand consists of a network of Template:RailGauge gauge (Cape gauge) railway lines in both the North and South Islands of New Zealand. Rail services are focussed primarily on freight, particularly bulk freight, with limited passenger services on some lines. Only Auckland and Wellington have urban rail systems; both are being upgraded and expanded.
Network ownership Edit
The New Zealand rail network has around 3898 km of line, of which about 500 km is electrified. The narrow Template:RailGauge was chosen because of the need to cross mountainous terrain in the country's interior and the lower cost of construction.[2] Difficult terrain has necessitated a number of complicated engineering feats, notably the Raurimu Spiral and Rimutaka Incline. There are 1787 bridges and 150 tunnels. The network reached its peak length, some 5700 km of line, in 1952.
The network has been the subject of major upgrading works on a number of occasions. The most major of these were the Tawa Flat deviation in Wellington, opened 19 June 1937; the Rimutaka deviation to the Wairarapa, 3 November 1955; and the Kaimai deviation in the Bay of Plenty, 12 September 1978. All of these involved major tunnelling works, of close to 9 km each in the two latter cases. Significant infrastructure improvements were also carried out on the North Island Main Trunk in the mid 1980s, some as part of the electrification scheme.

File:JA1271 Opapa 16Feb2003 JChristianson.jpg
Freight provides the overwhelming majority of revenue traffic, largely bulk traffic, with general freight being largely restricted to containerised and palletised products. Major bulk freight includes coal, lime, steel, wood and wood products, paper pulp, milk, cars, fertiliser, grain and containers.[2] Freight operations are carried out by Toll.
Both Auckland and Wellington have suburban passenger services. Christchurch and Dunedin formerly had suburban services, but they were withdrawn due to a lack of patronage.
KiwiRail owns Tranz Metro, which operates suburban passenger services in the Wellington region. There are five lines, all electrified except for the Upper Hutt to Masterton services (the Wairarapa Connection). Tranz Metro uses EMUs, and diesel locomotives on non-electrified services. In the 1930s Wellington was the second city (after Christchurch) to have electric suburban trains, and today it is the only city with them. Wellington is regarded as having the best passenger train system in New Zealand.
Provincial beginnings Edit
The railway network was initially constructed by the provincial governments of New Zealand from 1863 onwards. New Zealand's first public railway was opened in that year at Ferrymead by the \. The Canterbury Provincial Railways were built to the broad gauge of Template:RailGauge. On 5 February 1867, Southland Province opened a branch from Invercargill to Bluff to the international standard gauge of Template:RailGauge).
From 1870, the central government of Sir Julius Vogel proposed infrastructure including railway development, to be funded by overseas loans of £10 million. The central government also adopted a national gauge of Template:RailGauge. The first narrow-gauge line was opened on 1 January 1873 in the [[Otago ProvinceOtago Province]], the Port Chalmers Branch under the auspices of the Dunedin and Port Chalmers Railway Company Limited. Auckland's first railway, between Auckland and Onehunga, opened in 1873. Vogel also arranged for Brogdens of England to undertake several rail construction contracts, to be built by "Brogden's Navvies" recruited in England.
Central government control Edit
At the network's peak in the 1950s, about 100 lines were operating. There were large-scale closures of branch railways in the 1960s and 1970s. The network was initially protected from road transport competition, but during the 20th century this protection was gradually eased until its total abolition in 1983.
Corporatisation and privatisation Edit
Renationalisation Edit
Heritage and museum railways Edit
Current operations of the heritage railway type include the Glenbrook Vintage Railway, Bush Tramway Club, Waitara Railway Preservation Society, Weka Pass Railway, and Taieri Gorge Railway. The Taieri Gorge Railway, which is a Local Authority Trading Enterprise of the Dunedin City Council, is 60 km in length, making it the most ambitious project of its type to date. All other lines are operated by voluntary societies. The Weka Pass Railway at 13 km is the most lengthy of these. The Bay of Islands Vintage Railway is 11 km in length, but it is in poor condition, though having operated its first trains through Kawakawa since ceasing operations in 2000 for two weeks from 3 July 2007, the Society is now working on rehabilitating the track between Kawakawa and Opua.

If You Like it, Then You Should Make a Meme of It!
And I am even more excited that I get to use Beyonce in this blog post! This is actually one of my favorite memes. Now, I made this one but there is a picture of a meme in my class that says, "If you want a grade then you shoulda put your name on it." I actually have a bulletin board full of different meme sayings. I don't know why I didn't think of it before now.
Okay, I am getting ahead of myself. Before taking #NetNarr last year, I had no idea how to make a meme. While I was aware of them and I used to share them all of the time. I mean, why talk when you can meme. But I had never made one of my own.
Fast forward to now I am very skilled in making Memes. Once you make one you can make a bunch. I did find it very interesting to learn of how memes started. And what I found the most fascinating is that a meme's derivation can be traced using a site called Know Your Meme. This site can tell you where the meme came from. Talk about tracking! We had a really good conversation about how you have to understand the meaning of the meme. For example I have never seen Lord of The Rings, so the whole notion behind "One must not..." goes over my head. I am internet savvy enough to get the gist. But it is not as funny to me as a person who is into The Lord of the Rings. Just like when May 4th comes and I flood my timeline with Star Wars memes with Yoda talking in the Jedi way that he does, "one" will not get it unless they know the way of the force.
During class we played around with some memes.
Second to Beyonve this "think about it" guy is my go to meme to use during family conversations. I made this one based on the Netflix original show Black Mirror. Which I am now a fan of -- and you should be too! We watched the first episode of season 4 and it was amazing and it made me look at the way I use the internet and social media in a different light.
Just in case you're curious here's a clip:
Now while their ideas about technology and the internet may seem far off they aren't too far away from the reality in which we all live in. It was really a great episode and I would even go as far as to use a show like this to teach about the internet and how we interact with social media. Facebook and Instagram aren't very far off from this and the way in which we are plugged into our phones they might as well be implanted in our eyes.
This week we're going to look at selfies. And I can't help but to think about how we post selfies with different angles, filters and looks hoping that more than one person like the picture we post to social media. But more about that next week...
This week's DDA's were fun. I was able to do three this week. Each week I always wish I could'v done more. But I'm still hanging in there. But I've got to start thinking about the one that I am going to create. That is going to stress me out I know it!
Alan February 18, 2018 at 11:31 AM
You are welcome to use Beyonce in every post. It thrills me o read that from learning making them last year you are rather adept at it now, and use those skills well. You did such a great job in interpreting, and doing the Nosedive ones in the way I was hoping for.
In a way, memes can be like those kids cartoons that have a layer of subtle adult humor-- it's easy to get the quick laugh, but also armed with some knowledge (aka like knowyour meme or the context of the meme source) means you can go much farther with a message.
Fantastic work as usual- use more Beyonce memes!
Stephanie Jones February 18, 2018 at 3:51 PM
Yes to Beyonce! I agree with the cartoon analogy. Memes totally capture that essence of adult humor but there is also a generation of children now making and sharing memes as much as adults. It has totally become a new way of life in terms of communication. It cuts straight to the point!

The Flower Girl: April 2011
It has been yet another crazy week. Some exciting things are happening on the home front. I'll be sharing with you soon. Until then here are a few pictures that were taken at a pumpkin patch last fall. Posted by
Tonight was a sad night on The Amazing Race. Lets just say it wasn't that amazing to see your favorite team get sent home. My husband and I were really rootin' for the cowboys to win it all this time around. They have been one of the few teams to run the race with integrity, even in losing tonight they kept their positive attitude. I know they have done their family and Oklahoma proud. Because of them "oh gravy" is now in my dictionary, right up there with "darnit my bagarnit", thats mine but you can use it if you want to. So long for now cowboys, hope to see you on the next Amazing Race. Posted by
I have blog envy ; I envy other peoples blogs. It's true, I do. At least I can admit it. It's kind of like in school, when a friend would look great in a new killer outfit, and you would just feel frumpy. You know what I'm talking about, huh? .... Oh wait, you don't! Well nevermind, er , forget I said anything.
I love to stalk look at other blogs. Sometimes while stalking looking, I find myself getting jealous. Not necessarily jealous of their blogs, just jealous of the fact that they know how to make their blogs look that good. ( There IS a difference there. ) Truth is, and this may be a surprise to you all, I am not very techinal. I am technically challenged! Heck I am surprised I actually figured out how to do a blog at all. It did take me about 2 months. There are still pictures floating around in cyberspace somewhere that are supposed to be here. I also see that alot of people write out blogs in advance before they post them. I on the other hand pretty much just fly by the seat of my pants. At least I think thats the saying. It's funny how you say things your whole life, but when you post it for the world 9 people to see, it makes you wonder if you have been saying it correct all this time.
So my goal is to figure out how to do more with my blog. There is so much out there to learn. The blog world is my oyster! Once again IS that a saying? Hmmm, I think it is! Actually I think they do have a Blogging for Dummies book out there. I am all about those Dummie books, although they do nothing to help me with my psyche. I mean they are calling me "a Dummie" and their book is supposed to break it down for me, write it in terms I can understand. And I still don't get it!
I have, with the help of my husband, figured out how to post pictures. So I leave you with this :
I sold my first hair bow yesterday. It's true, I did! I was so excited that I almost jumped across the counter and gave the lady a hug and a kiss! I didn't of course, because I have to be professional and all. So now only $999,985 more dollars to make before I am a millionaire! Woot! Woot! (give or take a few 9's...math never was my strong suit!) Here is a picture of the hair bow the wonderful lady bought, and in case you are wondering....No it is not possible to make one of these yourself. It is an art that takes years and years of practice. Okay fine, you more than likely could make it yourself, but why would you want to go through all that trouble when you could just buy one from me? Posted by
I have had tons of people ask me for this recipe. Okay that is not entirely true, actually it is more like one person. Hi Penny , oops Wenny, excuse me ;) But I am sure tons of people will be commenting on how good this recipe is. That's probably not entirely true either, but hopefully maybe a couple of the handful of people that read my blog will like it. But you have to LOVE mushrooms, and some people don't ,ya know because of the whole fungus thing. I first had something similar to this at Panera Bread a few years ago. It was gloriousness between 2 pieces of bread, heaven on a plate, the yin to my yang, okay you get the picture. Long story short, they quit making it. Why? I don't know. I can't come up with a good enough reason as to why anyone would quit selling this mouth-watering concoction. BUT they didn't care what I said and quit selling it anyways. Now truth be told they could have started selling it again for all I know. I haven't been to a Panera Bread since that dreadful day they told me that I had to order something else. So you know what? I boycotted them. That's right I'll make them pay, I'll come up with my own version and sell it on the streetcorners and put Panera out of business. That didn't quite happen, but there's still time. So you better make this before I get the big head and start charging $10.00 for one of these bad boys. First you need baby portebella mushrooms Slice them and sautee in a pan with butter, also add a teaspoon or so of balsamic vinegar Spray a nonstick skillet with cooking spray and saute boneless, skinless chicken tenderloins. Add a teaspoon or so of balsamic vinegar on these also. I added salt, pepper, and some garlic powder to the chicken to taste.
These are a few of the ingredients I used (just cause I took the picture) Grab your panini press, OR in my case another skillet and Yankee Candle. (and you thought candles were only for smellin' good!) Then you lay a slice of buttered bread buttered side down on a skillet heated to medium heat. Then add a slice of mozerella cheese, then a couple of pieces of chicken. After that add the mushrooms and onions and top it with another slice of mozerella cheese and the other slice of buttered bread. Add the other skillet and Yankee Candle, or any other type of large candle I guess. Then just let it press the sandwich together for a few minutes then turn it over to press the other side for a few minutes until it is all melted and gooey, and better tastin than Panera Bread ever dreamed of being! ( I harbor no hard feelings, that would be wrong!)
I got a sales tax permit a couple of weeks ago.
It was very intimidating for me.
Even though you are not planning on stealing money from the IRS, they make you feel like you are.
"List EVERYTHING you plan on selling."
I broke out in a cold sweat...." Ummm... bows, home decor items, etc." "Okay then you can ONLY sell bows and home decor items!" "Etc. doesn't count unless you list what etc. is". I figure I am safe with home decor items. Those 3 words can describe a lot of items right ? I sure hope so ! I recently started making hair bows for girls, young women, females, etc. (wink,wink)
My goal is to make millions.
Of dollars, not hair bows.
I am not sure if that will happen.
I brought some of my bows up to the flowershop to display, and my co-worker (Hi Juju!) said and I quote "Wow those turned out a lot cuter than I thought they would !".
I'm still trying to get over that one.
I said all of that to say this....
I have plans people, BIG plans.....

Questions and Answers about Bowman Williams | Indeed.com
The best questions are directly relevant to Bowman Williams.
This may be a noob question but I see job titles listed as remote systems administrator positions, but at the bottom of these listings it says local candidates only. Are these available for remote candidates away from the workplace or are they only available to local candidates?
Thank you for your question - that's a very reasonable question to ask. When the job posting says "remote" sys admin role, this means the person will be working remotely from the office/workplace. It does not mean they are working from home. Most often, if a position is work from home, the job posting will specifically identify the role as a "work from home position."
Hope that was helpful - thank you for your question.

Are There Unwanted Side Effects Of Alpha Brain Capsules? - Justin DeMix
Alpha brain is a renowned cognitive enhancement medication now available. It's notorious for mental clearness, getting concentration degree, enhancing memory, mood and enthusiasm. This supplement has got a range of reviews of customers who found it as the medication that helped them to be analytic, productive, more energetic and concentrated all. Alpha brain's components have been chosen and proven since the organic and powerful nootropics to be able to improve the brain activity. However, it is extremely important that you learn more about the possible side effects of Alpha brain. What kinds of unfavorable Alpha Brain side effects are reported in user reviews?
Alpha brain is safe to use as with nootropics and it's effective in making the mind more healthy and stronger. This nutritional supplement is more successful and positive than Adderall that lead to a number of side effects. A nutritional supplement needs to be a effective nootropic and neuroprotective. It should be lower on toxicity level.
Caffeine augmented temperature and is not exactly a nootropic as it contains several side effects such as too much sweat, heart palpitations. Piles that are nootropic that are several have sufficient amount of caffeine; however, Alpha brain is designed without using caffeine and that is the reason it's safer than any other brain improving medicines in market.
Ingredients Safety Investigation
Alpha brain by Onnit is created with 11 ingredients such as AC-11, GABA, vitamin B6, Bacopa Monneiri, Huperzine A, Oat Straws, Mucuna Pruriens, Vinpocetine, Alpha-GPC Choline and Pterostilbene. Each of of the ingredients are called the formula that do not result in any side impact. Some ingredients such as Vinpocetine, Huperzine A and Alpha GPC are analyzed and shown in studies as the effective factors for enhancing neurons health and also giving better neuroprotective advantages to brain for long time.
Because the components are found useful in treating colds, Vinpocetine and Huperzine are considered successful. All these components are well known for having good potential because of their positive effects on memory electricity and using aging consequences. One point about Alpha brain is that it uses herbal supplements and nootropics which are especially extracted from plants and other all-natural resources so that it is not as risky to be used than any other chemical ingredients.
These components are considered tame for obtaining better augmentation, by few, who stack Alpha Brain using nootropics. Alpha brain is famous for utilizing it with other stacking like Phenylpiracetam, Pramiracetam, Oxiracetam, Piracetam and Aniracetam along with Noopept. It's also used together with Sunifiram and Adrafinil for study that is severe or when one wants to be really productive.
It's also suggested to be taken with Phenibut, Inositol and Picamilon for decreasing signals and anxiety of depression. Its own dosages are Citicoline to possess the benefits or so small to get some utilize more Alpha GPC or even Centrophenoxine although Alpha brain can be acquired with a choline foundation referred to as Choline Alfoscerate or even Alpha GPC.
The positive effects also depends upon the sensitivities of folks although this effective supplement is referred to as a safe product causing less danger and side effects. In certain conditions, users can feel a few side effects as well. If you truly feel side effects and feel uncomfortable, you need to stop using this medication. The very best way would be to begin with half dose and slowly increase the same after determining that one may tolerate its consequences.
In certain reports of Alpha mind, users reported that they felt consciousness and light headaches of stress. On occasion, these side effects have been related. If headache last for longer time, you must quit using this memory supplement that is increasing. A few of the users also reported that they felt nervousness and restlessness. It is like all conventional and classic enhancers, but if the side effects last for more time, you must quit using the supplement.
How to stop Negative Effects
A variety of accounts also reported that users may feel bad and tension temper. The elements of this medicine are known to include a number of anxiolytics that stimulate the GABA receptors which boost the quietness in your mind; however, if you feel the stress for more term you should incorporate any other supplements such as Picamilon, Theanine and Inositol in the stack of Alpha mind.
Alpha brain is known as the supplement to be employed by individuals and it doesn't give side effects. You may try this supplement to observe the negative and beneficial effects for yourself.

Rowing Selection usiSeat racing by ...
Rowperfect Seminar 2006 Seat Racing as part of selection by Duncan Holland, head coach of Cambridge University Boat Club.Part 1 - the slides.
Thank Rowperfect, Rebecca, Grant. Aim: To promote discussion of selection techniques. To pass on my ideas and opinions on selection, particularly seat racing. Intro: My background and experience. Rowing is a team sport, teams must be chosen. Bad selection, or selection that doesn’t meet the expectations of the team will reduce performance and enjoyment. Just look at all the headlines! Good selection is a way of managing athletes. Use selection as a way of managing expectations, good selection shows the athletes why the decisions have been made. Selection is always done before the event, no substitutions in rowing! So, the selector is making a choice before the event about which athletes he / she thinks will be fastest on race day over a specific course. Information to make this choice is imperfect. Tests are done before the event, over different distances , in different boats. From this imperfect information the selector must extrapolate forward to race day and make a judgement. More appropriate for children, recreational. Opinions are valid, but make sure the athletes know that opinion is the basis. Technique is a valid selection criterion but hard to measure. Age is a valid measurement, too young. Experience, do last year’s medals count? Service, do you reward loyalty? What effect does this have on other people and their performance? Easily measured but what is the effect on boat speed? Low tech or high tech? Height, weight, wingspan or Max oxygen uptake and anaerobic thresholds? What ergo score? 2km? 5km?, maximal or submaximal? Which machine on which setting? What if any weight correction factor? Which regattas? If you are racing 2km then relatively easy. How to simulate the HORR or WeHORR. Henley? Boat Race? Time trials. What distance? Relatively easy to manipulate. Matrix. Good and useful but require fleets of identical boats, multi lane courses etc. Big assumption that 2- speed equates to 8 speed. Fit the tests to the ambitions of the crews. Don’t repeatedly test young people on the ergo. A-M small etc. Fit the tests to the water and testing equipment you have. Don’t seat race on the Tideway! Tests should fit the training at the time, long in winter, shorter in summer. Test that which you are training. Simple tests can work, pull ups! For Can be a good simulation of racing. Fair Transparent Repeatable Good training Against Time consuming Requires space and equipment Requires a good level of rowing ability. Only thing changed is one athlete per boat. This gives a measure of those two athletes. Null race tells nothing about the athletes but may tell something about a crew. Exception is a double change and a comparison with an earlier race. See example. Athletes know neither the number of races or the next change. Total time is irrelevant to the seat racing. It does give information about the general level of the team. Eights too clumsy Steering is vital, can distract the steersman and leads to difficulty boating crews. I use 1500m I use 34 or free. Similar boats are acceptable, rig must be identical. Usual convention is that athletes can change height and stretcher only. If the null race has more than 1 length difference start again. Careful! Change two athletes so that in effect you go back to the previous line up and make a single change. If any result seems doubtful, change back and check. You cannot compare between sessions. Draws are acceptable data. This applies if you have more than 2 boatfuls. Rowing Selection using Seat racing by Duncan Holland
Rowperfect UK 2006 Seminar Seat Racing As Part of Selection D.J.Holland. C.U.B.C. [email_address] 2.
1 Context

Selection is an issue for all crews.

Dissatisfaction with selection procedures or outcomes is a common negative factor in crew performance.

Good selection policy and procedures are a useful management tool.

2 Selection Philosophy

All selection tests are an approximation of the final event.

Time.

Usually distance.

Often boat type.

Continuum from social to performance driven.

3 Selection Methods

Continuum from subjective to objective.

Social.

Who turns up.

Taking turns.

Coaches opinion.

Technique.

Compatibility.

Age.

Experience / service.

Physiology

Size / weight etc

Ergo scores

Training scores

Maxima

Weight adjusted maxima

Racing

Regattas

Time trials

Matrices

Seat racing

4 Choosing a Selection Process

To suit crew and objective.

To suit facilities and abilities.

Usually a mix of tests is better.

5 The Case for Seat Racing

Advantages.

Disadvantages.

6 Principles of Seat Racing.

Everything held constant except athletes.

Comparisons are one to one, athlete to athlete.

Each race after the null race gives only one piece of information

7 Assumptions for Seat Racing.

All athletes are honest and well motivated.

All athletes have comparable levels of fitness and skill.

8 The Rules of Seat Racing

Only one change at a time.

Athletes must not know what the next change is.

Times don’t matter, differences do.

9 Procedure

Use fours.

Coxed is usually better than not.

Decide a distance.

Decide, and enforce, a rate.

Boats must be similar and capable of being rigged identically. Identical boats are better.

Course should be straight, and have consistent conditions across both lanes. Bouyed courses are significantly superior.

Cox’ns, if used, say nothing except rate.

Boats stay in same lane.

All comparisons are done between crews with only one difference.

All sequences require a null race with a small difference between the crews.

Changing two athletes at a time is allowed but the comparison is with an earlier crew.

If in doubt, change back.

Comparisons are only allowed within sessions.

Less than 1 sec is not a result.

All athletes should have the same number of races.

10 Common Errors

Inconsistent water.

Too great a distance between crews.

Rating differences.

One or more incompetent athlete.

Bad steering.

11 Traps

Not thinking ahead.

Decide what comparisons you need, boat crews accordingly.

Not having enough time.

Too many races.

Gray Matter: Here Come Da Germs!
I've got a book manuscript due in January, so I made the commitment to ride with my husband to work. So for eight straight hours, while Larry is slaving away writing fundraising copy, I'll be at the library slaving away on my manuscript. At home I've got distractions like phone, email, and a cat who thinks she can convince me I haven’t fed her. The library is free of those distractions. Well, I don’t answer MY phone. But last time, a pudgy Pilipino turned his table into a home office. Every three minutes his cell phone went off with a factory issue jazz riff, followed by his p-peppered voice popping along.
I carry ear plugs. It got so bad one guy came over and offered to buy my spare pair off of me, earwax and all. There’s no cat to ask me for food, but there are a lot of Section 8 Types trying to snore on the comfy chairs. There’s no at the library either. But that’s not intentional. There’s supposed to be wi-fi access, but the signal is about as reliable as a memo from Blackwater.
Despite the drawbacks, I was getting into a good rhythm working there, until Friday. “Is it cold?” I kept asking my husband, who always likes things warmer than I do. The next morning I had a sore throat. By Saturday night my esophagus was on fire, my bones ached, and I was craving plain water. By Sunday the bug had arrived. I’ve been hopped up on Theraflu, Airborne, Zinc lozenges and Vick’s Vapo-Rub ever since.
Sunday night I couldn’t breathe. Monday I sneezed nonstop. My nostrils were so raw it burned. Today my nose ran all day. I have newfound compassion for allergy sufferers.
And my writing? No can do. Theraflu does that to you. Did you ever try to write when you were on drugs? I got wigged on Percoset once, after an endoscopy. The upside was, I finally “passed” the eHarmony personality test after failing it three times. Downside was, I got matched with Percoset addicts. So trying to be creative when you’re hopped up on antihistamines, Tylenol, VapoRub and lemon flavoring is bad. You can’t put together a sentence. Which makes me wonder how I’m managing to write this. Maybe the Theraflu is rubbing off. Ack, here comes a sneeze.
I did see minor progress today. I was able to nap for a few hours after dinner. Which has left me wide awake at 1:30 AM
As soon as my ears normalize to the same pressure as the outside world, I’m going back to the library. But I’m bringing the Instant Hand Sanitizer with me.

Tie rod ends too short after lift - Fixya
Tie rod ends too...
Tie rod ends too short after lift
I put a 2" lift on the Mule and now it has too much toe out. I tried to adjust the tie rod ends about half way on each side but its not enough. Is there any other Kawasaki tie rod ends that are longer and would fit the Mule. Or is there some kind of extension that I can add to the tie rod ends?
Front end noisy when driving over small rocks or bumps also front end shakes when braking
Usually only two things on the front end that cause noise for those reasons. Tie-rod ends or ball joints. To check tie-rod ends: fastest way is just to get under there and grab them and try to make them move by hand, best way is jack one side and move tire side to side, if loose and clunky, it's a tie-rod end. as for ball joints: again, jack up one side just enough to get tire a couple inches off the ground and then put a pry bar under the tire and try to lift it. If it lifts right up, and I don't mean lifting the whole car just the tire and it sounds clunky, it's a ball joint. Best to do upper and lower at the same time if it is a ball joint. Some B/J are pressed in and you will need a special tool to remove and install new ones. Advanced Auto will loan you the tools for this job if you plan to do it yourself, with a deposit of about $300.00 (It's a big kit they loan you) If it's the first time the BJ's are being changed they are probably going to be riveted in and you will have to grind or drill them out. I recommend grinding the rivets with a 4" grinder, much faster. (a 9" grinder won't fit in the space you have to work) As for the tie-rod ends, usually best to do inner & outer. (Some newer cars just have one, an outer) Remember to wrap a piece of tape around the threads at the point the old TRE's end at. So when you screw new ones on, you will put them at the right location, otherwise you will have to get a frontend alignment, if you don't keep the tires toe-in & toe-out at the same place they were when you started.

Daily Woof and Weather June 21
Screwed Again!! So the olympics say they have no rules against dogs competing in the marathon, but they have a rule you can only run on two feet. What am I gonna do now? I am running out of ideas to make money to buy my boat.
At least the shop has been crazy busy. I should have taken advantage of the profit-sharing when it was offered to me. Today we had boats to Sail Rock and to the marine park. Both groups had a lot of fun while I had to stay home and supervise the new house building.
We have a lot going on tomorrow also. We have some Discover scuba diving people going to Koh Tao, and some fun divers also. we also have some people starting their open water course here at our shop
The weather was beautiful today with a high of 34 and sunny all day. More of the same coming all week.
Well, I think I am going to give up on the boat idea as I’ll never have enough money for it. I am so depressed right now. I am headed straight to the bar tonight to drown my sorrows. Guess I’ll bark at you some other time and here are some pictures of today’s diving.
