Delivered my rv to the dealer last weekend for the insurance repairs from the break in last December. Also have some warranty work to be completed. They said it should be ready in about two weeks. I can't see it being done that soon considering parts have come from the manufacturer in the states. Just hoping it will be done before the salt hits the roads so I can get it back to the park. Have a nice new treed site to put it into when it returns. Can't wait for summer.
Went for a tour around the Irish Loop today. Saw 3 moose and 5 caribou. Got stuck behind a small suv towing a large camper for awhile which usually doesn't bother me. But when they can't see behind them because they have no mirror extensions it just rots me. The line of cars behind them had to number at least 20 and they had no clue. Not to mention they have no idea what's going on with the trailer. In my opinion, if you can't set up your tow vehicle properly you should not be on the road.
Was up at the camper this weekend and Forestry officers came through the park. They met with the owners for awhile then left, shortly after that everybody with a homemade fire pit was told they were no longer allowed to use them because according to the officers they are not legal or safe. What a load of bull. Most homemade pits are better than the store bought ones and last much longer. So if you have a custom pit at your site be prepared to replace it with a piece of crap from Wallyworld or C.T.
Happy May two four to everyone. Enjoy your long weekend and safe travels if you are going anywhere. Remember, life is good but camping is better!
Only five more days until opening weekend! Just wondering if any of you have plans to go anywhere? I'll be up the camper within two hours after getting off work on Friday. Lets all hope for good weather.
Went with a friend of mine to look at a few used campers. His rotted out. Looked at 5 different ones this week, and three had broken brake wires, 1of them on 3 of the 4 wheels. Where the wires come out of the backing plates and then join to the camper harness, the connections were corroded. You might want to check your rigs for this problem.
Less than 8 weeks until the May 24. It will soon be time to get our rv's ready for the summer. A thorough check over goes a long way towards a trouble free season of enjoyment.
Tires: check for wear, broken belts (run your palms over the tread, they should not have any high spots or crooked treads), weather cracks, and incorrect tire pressure is the #1 cause of tire failure.
Wheel bearings: they're not hard to grease, just do it at least every 2nd year.
Battery: they can lose 10% of their charge every month, always charge before adding water if needed unless below the plates then add first. Try to use distilled water, its better for the battery life.
Propane system: check for rubber hoses with cracks or corroded fittings, spider webs and bees nests in the exhaust ports, any connections with soapy water and expiry dates on your tanks.
Water system: Flush system thoroughly with clean water and turn off water heater bypass. You can sanitize the whole system by adding 1 cup of bleach to a gallon of water and add to your fresh water tank. Then fill the tank completely and open all taps one at a time until you smell bleach then close. Let stand for 12 hours and flush system until you can't smell bleach anymore. If your pump cycles on and off with taps closed, you probably have a leak somewhere. Better find it.
Seams: They should be checked every spring and fall. Even the best made rv manufacturer's recommend this.
Safety gear: Replace the batteries in your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, check the pressure in fire extinguisher and give it a good shake if it's a dry powder one.
Lights: not the one in the fridge, the tail and clearance lights.
This is not a complete list of things to check but I would say the minimum anybody should do for a reasonably trouble free season. Feel free to add to this if you wish, Dave.

Q: Get Shortcut target path in C# UWP How can I get a shortcut path in UWP C#?
I have seen several answers pertaining to getting .lnk targets using COM objects but in UWP I cannot seem to add a reference to the Shell interop.
in my application, I have a requirement to interprit a shortcut to a file, and read the shortcut  target file's contents, and read a shortcut to a folder, as the traversal of that shortcut target folder's contents. Think of it as a symlink. I want to be able to interprit shortcuts as a symlink and that requires getting the target of a shortcut, because not all users are knowledgable enough of what a symlink is.
I can't even find a good starting point, besides handling the file format myself. Is there a "Windows" way to do this?

A:
How can I get a shortcut path in UWP C#?

Currently, UWP does not provide such api that similar as symlink. So you could post your feature request in UserVoice.

Mohegan — Connecticut Sun coach Curt Miller warned ahead of time Sunday that this game could be "awkward," with the Sun not having anything to lose or gain in their regular-season finale, the No. 3 seed in the upcoming WNBA playoffs already secure.
That proved to be prophetic, as the Sun defeated the Minnesota Lynx 90-83 to eliminate the Lynx from playoff contention in what was the final career game for one of the league's all-time greats in Minnesota's Sylvia Fowles.
With Minnesota rallying within four late against the Connecticut bench, Miller put all five starters back in the game with 3 minutes, 43 seconds to play — per their request, he said later — to secure the win.
A scuffle and a double technical assessed to Minnesota's Aerial Powers and Connecticut's DeWanna Bonner ensued.
Among the things that are not awkward for Miller's team, however, is the addition of league veteran Odyssey Sims, who signed a seven-day contract on Aug. 3, extended to a rest of season contract on Aug. 10.
Sims was comfortable enough to take the microphone to address the 7,489 fans at Mohegan Sun Arena following Sunday's game after the Sun finished the regular season 25-11, going 11-3 since the All-Star break.
"I mean, I'm a vet, I learn fast," Sims said Sunday of her comfort level with the team as it heads into a best-of-three playoff series with Dallas beginning Thursday. "I had to learn fast. Just getting here, I know I have a big role on this team, now and going into the playoffs.
"I'm just doing what coach is asking me and staying ready. I don't have anything to prove. It's not about anybody else. I know what I can do and coach does too, that's why he picked me up. I'm just blessed and thankful to be here to have another opportunity and I'm on a winning team."
Sims, a 5-foot-8 guard who won a national championship while playing at Baylor, was drafted with the second overall pick in 2014 by the Tulsa Shock and has played in the league for eight seasons. She was a WNBA all-star in 2019.
Earlier this season, Sims signed with Minnesota and appeared in two games before a mutual separation with the Lynx.
The 30-year-old Sims finished Sunday's game with four points and four assists in 21 minutes and has averaged 5.8 points, 2.6 assists and 1.4 steals in 18.2 minutes per game with the Sun.
"Without question she has been a huge addition," Miller said. "It gives us a two-way player. She's been able to really guard the basketball off the bench for us in multiple positions; she's a really, really good ball defender.
"At the same time she's a downhill offensive player. We have a lot of pull-up jump shooters in our lineup ... now you have another guard that's in attack mode that can get to the rim at times."
Sims comes off the bench for the Sun along with All-Star Brionna Jones and DiJonai Carrington, giving Connecticut a number of valuable pieces as it enters the playoffs.
Miller said Sims' value as a WNBA veteran is not to be discounted.
"There's something so comforting with the rest of our team to have a veteran out there that really understands this league, that's not intimidated out there, that goes and competes her tail off."
Miller said without much practice time, Sims has had to learn on the fly.
She credits her Sun teammates for helping her adjust.
"I can always lean on them to tell me where to go or what to do. I always ask. I'm grateful just to have teammates that are willing to help me and not be frustrated because I don't know. I just got here a week or so ago," Sims said.
"... This team is fun. It's by far the funnest team I've ever been on, on and off the court. We're always together. Nobody cares about who gets the credit on the court. We play for each other. We share the ball. Like coach said, the ball finds energy. Everybody's so nice. Everybody's so genuine. It couldn't have been a better fit for me."
Alyssa Thomas finished with 16 points and seven rebounds for Connecticut and Natisha Hiedeman and Brionna Jones had 15 points each, with Hiedeman sinking four 3-point field goals. Jonquel Jones had 12 points and Courtney Williams 10.
Lindsay Allen had 26 points for Minnesota (14-22), including six 3-pointers, keeping the Lynx within reach of the Sun, who threatened to pull away with a 75-56 lead in the fourth quarter. Powers had 22 points.
Fowles, an eight time All-Star and two-time WNBA champion who is retiring after 15 seasons, finished with 10 points and 12 rebounds for her league-leading 192nd career double-double. During the game, she also became the only player in league history to eclipse 4,000 career rebounds.

The Divine Legation of Moses Demonstrated, Volume 3
By William Warburton
But, to the PHYSICAL CREATOR of the Universe, who will venture to say, what doest thou? *-Illustrious Philosopher! permit us therefore to answer for ourselves. We say, that the moral Governor of the World can never be debarred from carrying on his Administration in such a way as may best suit the ends of divine Wisdom, because human folly may encourage itself to raise, on that ground, an impious and abusive imitation. And, neither under natural, nor under revealed Religion, hath God thought fit to exempt or secure his Laws from such abuses.
God, under natural Religion, in the ordinary course of his Providence, hath, by annexing evil to Vice, made that Constitution of things the Instrument of punishment; but how hath this Dispensation been dishonoured, and even to the disturbance of Society itself, when these punishments, interpreted by ignorant or uncharitable men, have been turned into EXTRAORDINARY JUDGMENTS ?—Again, Peter and John said, what every honest Deist is ready to say,- We must obey God rather than Man. Yet how perpetually has this truth been abused by Rebels and Fanatics.
Under Revealed Religion, MIRACLES (the necessary Credential of those intrusted with its promulgation) by which Power, both the physical and intellectual Systems were controlled, have yet occasioned innumerable abuses, defiling every age of the Church with fantastic Prodigies, and lying Wonders.
But why do I speak of these sanctions of Revelation, (the Credentials of God's Messengers) when the very Communication of his Will to Man, REVELATION itself, hath filled all ages and nations with Impostors, pretending to a divine Commission?
But our Philosophers go on; and say, "That this office of destruction, imposed upon the Israelites, must have produced an ill effect on their Moral Character, by giving them wrong notions of the divine Nature; and by vitiating their own; as it had a tendency to destroy or to weaken the Social passions and affections."
Nay, further, they pretend to see the marks of these evils in the Character of the chosen People: whom, therefore, instead of pitying, (and if the evils arose from the cause they assign, were most deserving of pity) they have most mercilessly abused and misrepresented. But to answer to the FIRST PART of this infidel objection, which pretends that the Jews were brought, by this employment, to entertain wrong ideas of the Divine Nature, I reply,-The most adorable attribute of God, the moral Governor of the world, is his LONG-SUFFERING, by which he bears with the crimes and follies of men, in order to bring them to repentance: Now this attribute he hath made manifest to all but more fully to his chosen People; even in the very case of these devoted Canaanites. For when their crimes were arrived at the height of human depravity, He still withheld his hand, and, by divers awakening judgments, gave them time and invitation for repentance. But on their neglect and contempt of his repeated warnings, He, at length, was forced, as it were, to pour out his full vengeance upon them.
The Author of the Apocryphal Book, of the Wisdom of Solomon, thus graphically paints their case, in an Address to the Almighty.-"Thou hast mercy upon all-thou winkest at the Sins of Men, because they should amend-Thou sparest all; for they are thine, thou Lover of Souls!Therefore thou chastenest them, by little and little, that offend: and warnest them by putting them in remembrance wherein they have offended; that leaving their wickedness, they may believe in thee, O Lord! FOR IT † Acts v. 29.
• Job ix. 12.
WAS THY WILL TO DESTROY BY THE HANDS OF OUR FATHERS, THOSE OLD INHABITANTS OF THY HOLY LAND; whom thou hatest for doing most odious works of Sorceries, and WICKED SACRIFICES-merciless murderers of children, and devourers of man's flesh, and the feasts of blood-Nevertheless even those thou sparedst as Men,* and didst send Wasps, forerunners of thine host, to destroy them by little and little-executing thy judgments upon them by little and little, THOU GAVEST THEM PLACE OF REPENTANCE; not being ignorant that they were a naughty Generation-and their cogitations would never be changed."+
The Canonical Books of Scripture authenticate what this Sage Writer of after-times here delivers, concerning God's dealing with these devoted Nations.
Moses, on the egression of the Israelites from Egypt, speaks thus to them, in the Person of the Almighty-"I will send Hornets before thee, which shall drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite from before thee. I will not drive them out from before thee in one year, lest the land become desolate; but by little and little will I drive them out from before thee."‡ And again in his last exhortation to his People,-" Behold the Lord, thy God, will send the Hornet amongst them, until they that are left, and hide themselves from thee, be destroyed."§ And Joshua, on the like occasion, tells the People that what Moses had promised, in the name of the God of Israel, God had fulfilled-" I sent the HORNET before you, which drove them out from before you, even the two Kings of the Amorites." ||
Here, the Reader may observe, that the Apocryphal Writer gives one reason for the temporary plagues, which forerun the total destruction of the Canaanites; and the Authentic Text gives another; nor will the learned Reader be at a loss to account for this difference.
The Israelites, under their Leader, Moses, did not want to be told, that those temporary Plagues were sent in mercy. They had, on the first opening of his Commission, been instructed by him, in the attributes of the true God, his long suffering and bearing with the contradiction of Sinners; and his merciful acceptance even of a late-delayed Repentance. They had experienced the unwearied exertion of this attribute, even in their own case, when their repeated perversities, which would have tired out every thing, but infinite Goodness, were as often pardoned as they were committed. So that they were not ignorant, though their degenerate Posterity, in the time of this Apocryptical Writer, might want to be informed of the gracious purpose, in those warnings to a devoted People.
And as there was another use in these probationary plagues, viz. the wasting the Inhabitants of Canaan, this was the design which Moses and Joshua principally insist on, as it was the greatest encouragement to a dastardly People. Moses, in the name of his Master, promised to send HORNETS before them, which SHOULD DRIVE OUT the Hivite, &c. And Joshua reminds his People how the promise had been performed-God sent the HORNET before you, which drove them out from before you, &c.
This assurance was no more than needed. The cowardice contracted in a long state of Slavery; (a State fairly recorded, and deeply lamented by their Leader) required the assistance of all NATURE in their support.
"O nimium dilecte Deo-cui militat Æther,
Et conjurati veniunt ad Classica venti."
• That is, for the sake of their rational nature, though by their unnatural vices they had forfeited all the prerogatives of humanity. † Wisdom of Solomon xi. 23, et Exod. xxiii. 28-30. Deut. vii. 20. Joshua
seq.; xii. 2, et seq. xxiv. 12.
But though these warning Judgments, these chastisements of mercy, were lost on those to whom they were sent, yet they were not cast away; for, in aggravating the Crimes of the Canaanites, they served, at the same time, to promote their speedier extermination. So admirably is the moral government of God administered, that it's acts, directed to various purposes, are never issued in vain.-But what is said in holy Writ, of the previous punishments on the Canaanites, in mercy, is given only as a specimen of them, and not for a complete list, as in the record of the trying plagues of Egypt. So that we are not to conclude, that the destructive Animals, sent amongst these miscreants, were only wasps and hornets; or that, amongst the awakening punishments, DISEASE was not one. When God was pleased, in after-times, to punish their Descendants, the Philistines, for their prophanation of the ARK; (which, for the sins of his people, he suffered to fall into their hands) the sacred writers tell us, that they, who so prophaned it, were smitten with emerods in their secret parts. This is the only punishment there mentioned. Yet, by the account of the atonement, or trespassoffering, it appears that there was another.-The Philistines sent back with the Ark, which they restored, the images of five emerods, and FIVE MICE IN GOLD. Who can doubt, but that, in this addition to the atonement, another punishment was intimated, viz. the devastation of their Lands by mice? But the sacred Writer does not leave us to mere conjecture. In speaking of these mice, he thus qualifies them,-Mice that MARR the Land. But this is not all. The text here acquaints us, though occasionally, with two punishments, inflicted on the Canaanites; which the history of their expulsion does not particularly mention.-We understand how fit Instruments of general devastation MICE must needs be: and we may guess how well suited the other punishment was for their unnatural Crimes; nor would either one, or the other, cease to remind them of the vices or punishments of their Ancestors, the Canaanites, so that, avoiding the manners of their ancestors, they might (if possible) escape their total destruction.
I shall conclude this point with an observation which naturally leads to the next, that is to say, to the SECOND PART of this infidel objection, viz. "the EFFECT which the destruction of the Canaanites must be supposed to have on the minds of the MORAL INSTRUMENTS of their punishment." A matter most deserving our attention.
It cannot be doubted but that the Almighty displayed his mercy and long suffering on Sodom and Gomorrah, in some way analogous to what he practised in the Land of Canaan, (and how gracious he was in the extent of that mercy, we learn from Abraham's intercession for those Cities ‡) though the particulars of it be not recorded by the sacred historian: Whose silence in the one case, and not in the other, may be clearly understood. Those execrable Cities were destroyed immediately by God's own hand, in letting loose the Elements (the treasurers of his wrath) upon them.-In the deletion of the Canaanites, he was pleased to employ HUMAN INSTRUMENTS. These were to be used according to their nature; not as Entities merely Physical, but as moral agents likewise: Beings not only endowed with Sense, but Sentiment. Now it seemed but fit that such agents should be instructed in the reason and occasion of their Commission; especially as it was a matter of high importance; no less than to preserve them from judging perversely of the divine attributes. Accordingly Moses obviated this mischief by a detail of the abominable manners of this devoted People: together with a memorial of the ineffectual issue of their many chastisements in mercy to bring them to repentance, and to save them from utter deletion.
⚫ 1 Sam. v. 6.
Gen. xviii.
† 1 Sam. vi. 4, 5.
As the mischief was thus effectually obviated, the Israelites were, at the same time, secured from that other, (which is the second point objected to their Commission) it's tendency to vitiate the most amiable passion of our nature, by destroying or weakening the benign and social feelings for the miseries of our fellow creatures. For what could God's gracious dealing with these incorrigible Miscreants teach all, who (like the Israelites) were intimately informed of their crimes, and long delayed punishment, but, in `imitation of God's long forbearance, to shew mercy and compassion to their offending Brethren in distress. Nor, in fact, do we find that the Jews were more steeled to, or insensible of, the calamities of humanity (bating those of this devoted People) than other men, in the early Ages of society, were wont to be. And if they were not much more humanized, by being better taught, as well as fed, than the rest of mankind, it must be ascribed, not to this Commission, but to a certain native perversity, which (as strange as it may at first sight appear) might be one, amongst the very many reasons of God's choice of them, for his PECULIAR, as it made them the properest subjects to work upon, for a fuller manifestation of his infinite mercy towards the Sons of Men. Where it might be seen, in the deviations from right of two People thus connected and related, that the one was destroyed, after all means had been employed, without effect, to bring them to REPENTANCE; and the other pardoned and highly favoured, when the same merciful forbearance had produced its fruit of a timely REPENTANCE, and return to GOD, after every transgression; and, at length, a determined perseverance in this their capital duty (adherence to the true God) for many ages, even to the present time.
But it may still be asked, though no mischief was derived towards the Instruments of this extraordinary Commission, yet what good could such a commission produce? I answer, much, and constant; for besides a political benefit to an abject unwarlike people, in teaching them the use of arms; who were to make their destined way to Empire, as well by their own power, as by the extraordinary aid of the Almighty; in order to avoid a lavish waste of miracles: besides this, (I say) there were moral advantages, great and lasting, derived to this Instrumentality. Horror and aversion in the Israelites to those unnatural Crimes which had occasioned the deletion of the Canaanites; whose punishment must be intimately impressed on the minds of the chosen People, by their being appointed the executioners of God's vengeance. To confirm this, we may observe, that both Moses and Joshua, by incessantly reminding them of the horrid depravity of that devoted People, had their eyes always intent upon this good effect.
P. 386. H. The eloquent Bossuet saith rightly, that Protestants have but lamely supported the FIGURE, of THIS IS MY BODY, &c. by those-I am the vine-I am the door. And the reason he gives has its weight. Jesus (says he) in the institution of the Lord's Supper, was neither propounding a parable, nor explaining an Allegory*—But when the learned Writer would have us infer from this, that there could be no other occasion for the use of a FIGURE, he imposes his usual artifice upon us; which was always to keep out of sight what would have detected his slight of hand. He knew there were other occasions, of employing figurative expressions, such as fixing and declaring the NATURE OF A RITE.-And this was the occasion here. But then, says he, the words are detached and separated from all
"Quand les uns opposoient, Ceci est mon corps, les autres repondoient, Je suis le vigne-Je suis la porte-le pierre etoit Christ-11 est vrai que ces examples n'etoient pas semblables. Ce n'etoit ni en proposant une parabole, ni en expliquant une allegorie."
other discourse there is no leading preparation.*-So say the Socinians likewise; in order to infer a contrary conclusion. But we have already shewn, that they are both mistaken.
There was a leading preparation; and that, a plain one, namely, the celebration of the paschal Supper. And we have shewn, it was the custom of our Lord to be led by what passed before him, to regulate his language on ideas thus prepared.-Nor was the consecration of the Elements in the SUPPER OF OUR LORD SEPARATE from all other discourse. It was preceded by, and connected with, a most affecting discourse on the death and sufferings of our Redeemer. Therefore the words of the Consecration do not, as M. Bossuet pretends, carry their whole meaning within themselves; but refer to things preceding and exterior. So that the Bishop's triumphant conclusion loses much of its lustre, when he says, what I pretend to evince is, the embarras into which these words—THIS IS MY BODY, throws all the Protestant party-there was no reason for using these STRONG TERMS for the Institution of the Eucharist rather than for Baptism. This place I foretell shall be the eternal and inevitable confusion of the defenders of the FIGURATIVE SENSE.† There was no more reason, on the Protestant principles, (says he) for chusing these STRONG TERMS here, than in the rite of Baptism. Surely, there was a very good one. For if it was the purpose of divine Wisdom to explain the nature of the Rite, only by the words of the Consecration, which it is agreed it was, as well by him who holds it to be a real Sacrifice, as by us who hold it is only a feast upon Sacrifice, there was a necessity for the use of these terms. This was not the case in instituting the Rite of Baptism, whose nature is expressly defined. Besides, here the matter, administered, was WATER, an element always at hand, and therefore fitly called by its proper name. But the FLESH and BLOOD of the Sacrifice, of which the Lord's supper was a festive commemoration, not being then at hand, as Christ was not yet offered on the Cross, the Elements of Bread and Wine, substituted in their place, were, by an elegant and necessary conversion, called the body and blood, as these elements only were declarative of the nature of the Rite, viz. a feast upon Sacrifice. To support this reasoning still further. Another sacred Rite, that of the imposition of hands, in procuring the descent of the HOLY SPIRIT, is called the BAPTISM BY FIRE; in which, both the terms are figurative, as, in the Baptism by Water, both are literal. And why this difference? Because the Agent or Instrument of this Baptism by Fire being spiritual, there was need of figurative terms, taken from material things, to aid the grossness of our conceptions, concerning the manner of the operation. So that all the mystery in this affair, (I mean, so far forth as concerns the terms of the institution) is no more than this; when the things communicated are of a spiritual nature, as the gifts of the holy Spirit; or of a material nature not yet in esse, as the flesh of a Sacrifice, not yet offered up, and therefore needing another body to be substituted in its place, there, the employing figurative terms becomes necessary. But when the thing communicated is a material Substance, at hand, and actually capable of being employed, as Water in Baptism, it would rather confound, than aid our conceptions, to use improper, that is, figurative terms.
P. 389. I. They had one common nature so far as they really conveyed, or were foolishly imagined to convey, benefits to the participants. But St. Paul joining to the Christian and the Jewish, the Gentile sacrificial Feasts,
"Ces paroles [ceci est mon Corps, &c.] detachées de tout autre discours, portent tout leur sens en elles-mêmes." "Cet endroit sera l'eternelle et inevitable confusion des Defenseurs du SENS FIGURE."-Hist. des Var. tom. i. p. 477, 8vo.

Psyched to share with you guys our completed antique hoosier!
We decided to paint it a soft gray, though the finished photo make it look more of a bluish color. We started by removing all of the hardware, hinges, handles, door, drawers… anything that could be removed really. I lined up all the handles on a piece of cardboard so they could be easily spray painted. I sprayed them Rust-oleum's oil rubbed bronze.
We took the hoosier apart and brought it outside to sand it. Al sanded and I began priming after him. We did one thin coat of primer with some tinted gray primer that we already had.
Because we used the tinted primer, one coat of paint covered it just enough. It was a hot day so we had to work quickly because the paint was drying at record speeds. After sanding, priming and painting it was time to bring it back in the house.
We put all the doors, hinges, handles and drawers back on and cleaned it all up. I decided to cover 4 of the glass panes and leave one open.
This was so simple. I used scrapbook paper that was 19 cents per sheet and some double-sided tape. I cut each sheet to fit the glass and then used the tape to stick it on. You can barely see the tape, and for now it's just a temporary solution until I decide what I want to do permanently.
What do you guys think? Love it/hate it? I know it's not the type of furniture everyone would love and some people might think we're nuts because we made over an antique. For us though, it's perfect. We love it and it holds all the things a kitchen should, that ours can't because there are no darn cabinets!
You did a great job, it was in great shape so you got a real find. enjoy!
Great team work! Who needs cabinets when you have a super Hoosier. You could frost or etch the glass or even check out the bubble glass sheets. I used that in a stained glass project, it's pretty neat. Or maybe do nothing, it looks great. This is a piece that you'll never part with.
I was thinking of trying my hand at etching it. I'm not sure what bubble glass is, off to Google that now!

This book tells the story of pentecostals' changing healing practices in the United States since the early 1900s. While early believers' attracted attention due to their widespread rejection of mainstream medicine and their overt spiritualization of disease and its cure, later generations of pentecostals and their charismatic successors made significant modifications to the healing paradigms that they inherited. Claims of dramatic divine intervention never disappeared, yet strident denunciations of the medical profession often gave way to "natural" healing methods associated with scientific medicine, natural substances, and to a certain degree psychology. As evidence of the success of adherents' retooled approaches to healing, by the turn of the twenty-first century figures such as the pentecostal preacher T. D. Jakes appeared on the Dr. Phil Show, other healers marketed their books at mainstream retailers such as Wal-Mart, and some developed lucrative nutritional products that sold online and in health food stores across the nation. By chronicling adherents' embrace of competitors' healing practices, including alternative healing methodologies rooted in a "metaphysical" tradition in American religion, the book illuminates pentecostals' dramatic transition from a despised minority to major players in the world of American evangelicalism and mainstream American culture. In exploring the interconnections, resonances, as well as continued points of tension that that existed throughout the movement's history between adherents and some of their fiercest rivals, the book also reveals how even the earliest pentecostals never were quite as distinct from their competitors in the American healing marketplace as it may have first appeared.

Birmingham Maple Clinic Therapist, Calder Kaufman PsyD, LP Licensed Clinical Psychologist, traveled to New York in October to meet with Dr. David Grand, the developer of Brainspotting. The purpose of this trip was for Dr. Kaufman to become a Brainspotting trainer himself. Calder enjoyed the experience in part because it drew therapists from across the world with only two being from America and the rest from France, Germany, Brazil, and Indonesia among others. After that weekend Dr. Kaufman secured his status as a "provisional" trainer and will do training sessions co-facilitated by an experienced trainer before going solo. Dr. Kaufman's first Brainspotting seminars will be in Austin, TX and Ann Arbor, MI in March.
Brainspotting is a focused treatment method that works by identifying, processing and releasing core neurophysiological sources of emotional pain, physical pain, trauma, dissociation and a variety of other challenging symptoms. To learn more about Brainspotting visit Brainspotting.com.

Q: C++ class and inheritance error: undefined reference to derived class I am attempting to make part of a program that uses a bank account class as the base class and checking and savings as the derived classes.  I have been trying to set up the basic framework before I do any fancy data handling and I've followed some tutorials to get a better understanding of classes and inheritance.
I have looked for answers but the answers I have found don't seem to be my problem but I might just need another set of eyes on my code.
the compiler errors:

In function main':
  badriver.cpp:20: undefined reference toChecking::getAccount()'

Thanks for any help pointing me in the right direction.

A: Checking.cpp and Savings.cpp contain:
BankAccount::~BankAccount(){}

void BankAccount::setAccount(int account){
     myAccount  = account;
}

This causes undefined behaviour because you defined those functions in multiple files. You need to delete those lines from Checking.cpp and Savings.cpp, and instead put in definitions for the functions which are listed as being missing in the compiler output:
void Checking::setAccount(int account){
     // code here
}

etc.

Sheltered Care
Intermediate Care & Skilled Nursing
Caledonia Senior Living hasn't had a single case of COVID-19
Nov 19, 2020 | Caledonia News
There has not been a single case of COVID-19 among residents at a nursing home in the western suburbs.
Caledonia Nursing Home in North Riverside shared how they are successfully managing this pandemic.
Darlene Downs, a resident at Caledonia Senior Living, tries to get outside for walks every day. After all, it's the only way the 89-year-old has been able to see her family during the pandemic.
"Thank god for technology," Downs said. "Telephoning is wonderful but Zoom is even better."
"I know it's been hard on my mom to not go out and do the stuff she wants to do," said Maggie Downs, her daughter.
While's it tough for nursing home residents and their families to stay vigilant, Caledonia said operating under the philosophy of overreacting, rather than underreacting, to the virus has paid off. Not one resident has tested positive for COVID-19.
"We are in the position we are in because of three things working together: luck, grace of a higher power and the vigilance of our staff," Caledonia president Gus Noble said.
Noble said his staff have made commitments to be vigilant in their personal lives to keep the residents safe.
Caledonia also has been aggressive about testing early on. Since the beginning of May, every resident and staff member gets tested at least once a week.
And for the handful of workers who have tested positive, Caledonia has self-imposed restrictions greater than those required from the state.
"We chose to take the community in a lockdown for two weeks, which required residents to shelter in place in their own rooms," Noble said.
The long term care facility is nestled among a forest preserve in North Riverside. It is operated by the 175-year-old non-profit Chicago Scots. Its values are rooted in family and community.
"I know everyone who has taken care of my mom treats her like they would own family members," Maggie Downs said.
With a few more months to go of patience and vigilance, family members are convinced that personal care is part of Caledonia's success in keeping their residents COVID free.

The tech world is advancing very quickly, and so many advancements keep coming into our lives that we have lost count! We think in the midst of new phones, laptops, and wearable technology, we keep forgetting the actual super-power – the battery!
We really think these are not spoken as much as they should because we often get lost in the gadgets themselves. But, did you know that the new battery technology is far from what you would think and expect? True, batteries had not gone through many changes in the past and with evolving devices, the battery ended up being the weak link, but things have changed now. There is so much innovation on this front that when you dig deep, you will feel like the future is already here.
In this article, we shall talk about the new battery technology that we can expect this year in Samsung devices.
From 0 to 100 in 12 minutes!
Samsung is rumored to change from lithium to graphene, which will fire up the battery within minutes. That means that within seconds you will have enough charge to use the phone easily and in 12 minutes you will have charged it fully. How amazing is that?
Now, if Samsung decides to go with gold nanowire batteries, you will be in for another huge surprise. You can recharge these batteries multiple times without worrying about their lifespan. Tests are already underway, and the results so far have been very promising. The test batteries have apparently been recharged thousands of times in 3 months, and the batteries withstood all that burden without degrading one bit!
Yes, you read that right. Wireless inductive charging is almost a thing of the past now because presently, researchers are working hard to help you charge your phone through Wi-Fi. So, you won't have to connect your device to any power source whatsoever when you want to charge it. It will just happen out of thin air!
Samsung S10 launched recently. Did you watch the keynote? Did you see how they explained that you could charge your phone with the help of another? None of us could hide our shock! But, hey, it is true. No plug point around? Don't worry. The new Samsung batteries can share power. Because sharing is caring!
This has already happened. Didn't we tell you that the future is here? We weren't lying. The battery in the new Samsung phones can learn your usage patterns and routine, and adjust itself accordingly so that it saves power without your help.
Foldable phones are in the market. How long before you can fold batteries too? Not very long, to be honest. The battery is apparently going to be very thin but also very tough at the same time.
Lastly, it seems like batteries could be 3D, making them very safe and non-flammable. Other benefits of this would be a better battery life, better density, and lower prices.
A few engineers have developed a biofuel cell that draws energy from sweat and is, yes that's right, stretchable. Right now, the technology is advanced enough to power Bluetooth radios, but if you think about it, you will realize that it is totally possible for batteries to be developed out of these biofuel cells.
Every now and then we hear stories about phones exploding and killing the users. That's a horrible way to die, isn't it? Soon, you may not have to worry about this at all. A scientist named Mike Zimmerman developed batteries that are safe and have more capacity than the regular lithium-ion batteries. If everything goes well, these extremely thin batteries that are not flammable at all could be a reality.
They could be salty and cheaper!
Oh, yes. Sodium is among the most commonly found elements on earth, and if we can use it to make our batteries, the prices will automatically come down. What's more, these batteries are supposed to be more efficient than regular batteries. If the scientists in Japan are to be trusted, we will see these batteries being used for smartphones within a decade!
We are extremely excited about all this becoming a reality soon. Are you?
This will be a great revolution in smartphones. Looking forward to it. Nice and very informative article as always.


Hope you like it then mate.
If you need any help with anything on it (collectibles or whatever) just drop me a message anytime.
Street Fighter IV - Character Select. A fantastic remix of classic SF music.
A great track from one of my personal favorite PS3 games and soundtracks, 'Lave' from 'Super Stardust HD'.
Not much to say about it really but classic video game music I'm sure you'll agree.
'Breeze at Dawn' - Soul Calibur V.
Great music from a great game and soundtrack. Enjoy!
Really good show. Hearing 'Battle with an Esper' has made me want to play Final Fantasy XII. Has the soundtrack for the PS4 version been remixed like the FFX/X2 HD remaster?
'Room of Angel' was a nice track too.


"The time to unite and take action is now. Together we can halt the growing list of victims. We can stop the madness by forging solutions that address the myriad issues that promote cycles of violence. We must raise our voices to join with members of our communities and at every level of civil society in dialogue and action, to address the underlying issues that result in hate and motivate unspeakable acts of violence."
As the largest single group of health care professionals, nurses are increasingly caring for those victimized by gun violence and those forced to confront the physical and emotional consequences of these senseless acts.
For decades, ANA has called on Congress to enact sensible legislation aimed at reducing gun violence. In the wake of multiple mass shootings that have taken place across the country, ANA, representing the voices of more than 4 million registered nurses nationwide, renewed its call to action by urging lawmakers to immediately repeal restrictions prohibiting the CDC from studying gun violence. Following the inclusion of this language in the most recent omnibus bill, we're calling on Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar to direct the CDC to begin this research immediately.
ANA also supported passage in the 116th Congress of HR 8, a bipartisan, common sense bill to make background checks universal.


Romeo Langford and Rob Phinisee led Indiana to a road win over Penn State.
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. — Indiana blocked a shot on the game's first possession and prevented a shot from being taken on the last.
The defensive exclamation point capped what was a bumpy 64-62 defeat of Penn State on Tuesday in the Bryce Jordan Center that sent the Hoosiers to 7-2 overall and 2-0 in the Big Ten.
Indiana led 63-52 with just under four minutes to play before the Nittany Lions (4-4, 0-2) scrapped back and had a chance to tie or go ahead with 2.3 seconds remaining. But Penn State forward Lamar Stevens, who found little room to operate all night, could not come up with an inbounds pass cleanly as a pair of Indiana defenders collapsed on him just before time expired, allowing the Hoosiers to escape a game they had in hand for most of the second half.
Freshman guard Romeo Langford led Indiana with 17 points on 6-of-13 shooting, but only two of those points came in the second half. Rob Phinisee and Aljami Durham had 12 points each and Juwan Morgan, playing only 26 minutes due to foul trouble but showing few ill effects from a left leg injury he had suffered last week, had 10 points and six rebounds.
Freshman guard Rasir Bolton led Penn State with 17 points and coaxed in a short jumper to cut the lead to 64-62 with 22 seconds left. Stevens had 12, one more than half his season average, and freshman Myles Dread also had 12 for the Nittany Lions, who shot only 37 percent from the field and 42 percent (11-of-26) from the free-throw line.
Phinisee added five rebounds and five assists and had only one of Indiana's 16 turnovers. Miller had challenged him earlier in the week to play more "downhill," and an effort to do so paid off on Tuesday.
Penn State pulled to within 57-52 on two free throws by Dread with 5:50 to play, but Phinisee answered those with two free throws of his own after being fouled on a drive to the hoop, then sliced through the lane again and coaxed in a left-hand layup off the glass for a 61-52 lead with just over 4 1/2 minutes remaining, prompting a timeout from Penn State coach Patrick Chambers.
After a Penn State turnover, Phinisee drew the defense and found an open Evan Fitzner, who buried a 16-footer, his only points of the game to increase the lead to 63-52.
Indiana did not score its first points until the sixth minute of the game on a short hook shot by De'Ron Davis, but the Hoosiers were down only 9-2 after that basket, thanks largely to Penn State's foul-line woes. It was nonetheless another troubling start for a young team.
Langford had 15 points in the first half on 5-of-10 shooting, getting most of those on step-back jumpers. After a 1-of-11 start on field goals, the Hoosiers connected on 11 of their next 22 before the half, taking a 34-30 lead into the break after a twisting layup from Phinisee with three seconds remaining. Indiana then shot 11-of-22 in the second half to finish at 42 percent.

The post-production department delivers broadcast-ready content from its Avid® editors to a central Isilon-based storage pool from where it is automatically distributed to the studio servers. This architecture enables high performance with extremely short time to air for live and fast-turnaround productions. Content is ensured with backup on an Isilon storage cluster, supplied and integrated as part of the Harris Broadcast contract.

Bexel Launches 4K Solution with Evertz Dreamcatcher
Dreamcatcher represents the next generation in slow-motion replay technology and offers real-world 4K benefits. The product provides enhanced storytelling capabilities by allowing a production team to capture an event from all angles, without ever missing a moment of action. When 4K cameras are used, Dreamcatcher's zoom capability lets broadcasters zero in on the action and extract an HD image from a larger 4K frame. This high resolution zoom ability allows broadcasters to enhance the narrative and definitive coverage of close calls at sporting events. When used in conjunction with Evertz' patent-pending tracking feature, the 4K zoom functionality enables a totally unique replay experience. Dreamcatcher's proprietary Mosaic function synchronizes multiple angles that can be played out with the press of a single button, allowing a captured event to be shown from brand new perspectives.

The origin of computers built with any sort of trusted execution is an IBM 7094 with two separate memory banks with a switch that was designed and built at MIT to support CTSS, the Compatible Time Sharing System.
The origin of computers built with any sort of trusted execution is an IBM 7094 with two separate memory banks with a switch that was designed and built at MIT to support CTSS, the Compatible Time Sharing System. One bank ran kernel code and the other user code, although those were not the terms used at that time.
The following quote is a description of the method to switch between user (slave) and kernel (master) modes in the GE 645.<ref>E. L. Glaser +2, ''System Design of a Computer for Time Sharing Applications'', 1965 Fall Joint Computer Conference</ref>
The following quote is a description of the method to switch between user (slave) and kernel (master) modes in the GE 645.[1]
Because it was felt desirable to make it possible to branch easily between various programs including between slave and master programs, a certain degree of insurance has to be built into the hardware to guarantee that spurious branches would not take place into the middle of master mode programs from slave programs. As a consequence, a master mode procedure when viewed from a slave mode procedure appears to be a segment which can neither be written nor read. Further, the only method of addressing this segment that is permitted is a branch to the 0th location. Any attempt to get at other locations by branch, execute, return or any other instructions will result in an improper procedure fault causing an appropriate interrupt.
