Château de Dieppe
Dieppe, France
Château de Dieppe was founded in 1188 and destroyed in 1195. The site was restored in the 14th century. The castle was largely reconstructed by Charles des Marets in 1433. The castle is composed of a quadrangular enclosure with round flanking towers and a lower court adjacent. The large west tower dates perhaps from the 14th century, and served as the keep. Several architectural styles are represented, and flint and sandstone are used in the buildings. A brick bastion and various other buildings have been added to the original enclosure. The town walls were built around 1360. The walls were extended between 1435 and 1442. Although the town was largely destroyed by an Anglo-Dutch naval bombardment in 1694, the castle survived.
Until 1923, the castle housed the Ruffin barracks. It was bought by the town in 1903 and today is home to the Dieppe museum with its collection of ivories (crucifixes, rosaries, statuettes, fans, snuffboxes, etc.), maritime exhibits and the papers and belongings of Camille Saint-Saëns. The castle offers a panoramic view over the town and the coast.

Interesting place to go for a walk and explore, I didnt look in the museum but the grounds are very nice, dogs are allowed. Toilets came in handy as im stuck in dieppe living in a very small car for 3 days before I can travel back to the UK :)

Great views and some interesting exhibits. Nothing on the Raid or the Battle at Arques which is a shame but great views across the town
Paula Potter (3 years ago)
A definite visit for Canadians, there is so much Canadian history in Dieppe. Such a beautiful seaside town too. Love it.
Liv Candless (3 years ago)
Very rude lady receptionist who was very suspicious that I was not a student despite showing my student card. Spoke in French to her colleague beside her while preparing our tickets, ignoring us completely. There was very little English explanation in the museum, not tourist friendly at all. Not worth the entry fee (students enter free) although the views of the seafront are worth climbing up the hill for. Don't risk ruining your mood for this museum which has a very subpar collection of art.
Mira Demeter (3 years ago)
The Chateau is a lovely place, it's very old & historic. The view from there is fantastic! The tickets are around 5 euros small children don't pay. There's the bottom part of the castle available, you cannot access towers. It's like a museum & gallery in one. There's an Ivory museum too. But gutted as there wasn't an English guide to read so didn't actually learn anything about the history of this place. It's open currently 10-12 & 2-5 and shut otherwise. There's free toilets on the premises, it has entrances from the bottom & top of the castle. I wish the people working there were a bit more pleasant but as a sightseeing & historical place it's lovely. Family friendly. Recommended to visit if in Dieppe.

Men with male factor infertility are more than twice as likely to develop high-grade prostate cancer, according to a study published online March 22 in Cancer.
MONDAY, March 22 (HealthDay News) -- Men with male factor infertility are more than twice as likely to develop high-grade prostate cancer, according to a study published online March 22 in Cancer.
Thomas J. Walsh, M.D., from the University of Washington School of Medicine in Seattle, and colleagues compared the incidence of prostate cancer in 22,562 men who had been evaluated for infertility with a matched sample of men from the general population.
The researchers identified 168 cases of prostate cancer. Men who were evaluated for infertility but not necessarily with male factors did not have an increased risk of prostate cancer compared with the general population. But after adjusting for age, duration of infertility treatment, and infertility treatment facility, men with male factor infertility were more likely to develop high-grade prostate cancer (hazard ratio, 2.6).
"The results of the current study provide novel evidence of a potential link between male factor infertility and aggressive prostate cancer risk," Walsh and colleagues conclude. "These results, if confirmed, also suggest that men identified with male factor infertility earlier in life may be considered for prostate cancer screening, given the elevated risk specifically for high-grade disease."

Finding an African American baby shower invitation is not as difficult as it once was. Celebrate the mother's heritage and the new baby with a personalized baby shower invitation reflecting their African American roots. Choosing a baby shower invitation that features a black mom, couple or baby goes the extra step to ensure that the parents feel the personalization and work you've put into planning the baby shower.
Keep the invitation simple by using choosing a pink and brown invitation for mothers expecting a baby girl that features an African American baby. Or, if the mother is expecting a baby boy, choose a brown and blue invitation. Personalize the invitation further by adding a short poem or by including the baby-to-be's name and where the couple is registered.
Or, incorporate a theme into your baby shower invitation. A blooming baby shower invitation featuring a black baby boy or girl blooming in a flower pot is a precious way to invite guests to your party. A sports themed baby shower invitation is a perfect invitation for an active family welcoming a new baby. Or if you want to give the mom-to-be a little pampering before her sleepless nights and exhausting days, throw her a spa baby shower with graphics depicting a pregnant mother-to-be relaxing and getting pampered.
Are you hosting the baby shower around the holidays? Choose an African American baby shower invitation that highlights the upcoming holiday. A little pumpkin baby shower invitation with a black baby poking its head out of a pumpkin is perfect for a fall baby shower. Choose a Christmas themed baby shower invitation with the baby wearing a Santa suit or a Winter Wonderland invitation with snowflakes for baby showers during the Christmas season. Ask guests to bring a small unwrapped gift related to the holiday for the baby - a bib, an ornament, or even a small toy or blanket. You can then incorporate all of these small items into a fabulous holiday-themed diaper cake for your centerpiece for the baby shower.
If the mother-to-be is expecting twins or triplets, twins in a pod or triplets in a pod are the perfect invitations to announce their miracle while staying true to her African American heritage.
Whether the mother is expecting a boy, a girl, keeping it a surprise, or even expecting twins or triplets, you can find the perfect baby shower invitation. There are so many options available for baby showers for African American couples than there were in the past. Online retailers with talented designers can even re-design baby shower invitations with other races to depict black babies, mothers and couples. All you need to do is ask.

A post-apocalyptic place unlike the world we know. Where people eat the flesh of ghouls under the misguided belief it will prolong their lives. Where magic, light and dark, exist. Where machines are a thing of the past but knowledge of their misuse has shaped the sad state of the present. A place where humans hide not wanting to live out a half-dead fate if bitten by a ghoul. A place ruined by storms that scorched the land and transformed its people. A place where music can shape destiny. A place of creatures shaped by magic. A place full of fantastical landscapes. A place to instill wonder and fear.
This is the world of The Black Fire Concerto.
Erzelle is 12 years-old and a captive on a riverboat called the Red Empress. Imprisoned when she came aboard with her parents — musicians invited to play for guests —- Erzelle waits, knowing she will one day meet the same horrible death. While she waits for that day to come, she plays her harp while guests feast on the flesh of ghouls. When a new guest, a fellow musician named Olyssa, befriends Erzelle, her life changes forever. Once they escape the Red Empress, Erzelle accompanies Olyssa on her journey to find her sister. Along the way, Olyssa teaches her new music — music fueled by magic that can tame ghouls and kill their enemies. Music that will forever change, not only Erzelle, but their world.
I listened to the first part of this book when it was featured on Tales to Terrify. It was wonderfully creepy and I had a picture of this world in my head so when the book arrived I was anxious to get started. The world of Erzelle and Olyssa held true and I found myself rushing through this story full of ghouls, flesh eaters, magically driven harvesters of the dead, and creatures in hiding from a terror that will bring on a long and sad death.
One thing I wanted more of, well, was more of the story. At less than 200 pages, The Black Fire Concerto packs a lot into it's few pages. I was satisfied by the end but I wanted more. It was just that good and I was so sucked into the story by this point that when the end snuck up on me, I wasn't ready for it. That's a good thing.
If you're the type of person that likes to hoard creepy books for October, this is one more. I should caution though, reading this book during lunch will probably make you want to stop eating. Descriptions of stretched sinew and joints popping aren't conducive to eating. Just a warning.
Thanks to the author, Mike Allen, who sent me a copy of this book for review.
Lynn also asked Mike a few questions too.
I'm trying to resist the urge to impulse-buy it right now.
Oh, I should have mentioned — go to Tales to Terrify and listen to the first part. It's here: http://talestoterrify.com/tales-to-terrify-no-85-mike-allen-2/. You can listen to the first part!
Ooooh. I also discovered that it's on the Kindle Lending Library, which I've never actually used before. Def gonna give it a try.
This was on Tales to Terrify? sweet!!! I find scary things are way scarier if I listen to them, all those tense pauses, i love it!
Yes! I loved it and you're so right about the tense pauses. It's good and creepy.
Definitely agree that the only problem with this book was that I wanted more. Creepiness in abundance!

Pharma Industry Seen Rapidly Adopting RFID
Pharmaceutical firms to surpass CPG companies in use of radio frequency identification, providing cost savings in five key areas META Group
Stamford, CT — August 27, 2004 — Potential cost savings from the use of radio frequency identification (RFID) will spur increasing use of the technology within pharmaceutical company supply chains during the next 18 months, and pharma industry firms will surpass consumer packaged goods (CPG) companies in their adoption of RFID in that timeframe, according to new research by technology consultancy META Group.
Although pharmaceutical organizations have been using RFID technology for years in niche applications such as tracking lab samples, these companies have recently begun examining the potential benefits of using RFID to track finished products. Because of the high value of pharmaceutical products, the cost barrier for tagging products within the supply chain is relatively low. In addition, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has acknowledged the benefits of a universal electronic pedigree, which will identify and track individual pharmaceutical products throughout the supply chain.
In a recent report by the FDA, the agency estimated that pharmaceutical companies would complete full-scale, pallet- and case-level RFID tagging of most pharmaceutical products within a three-year timeline, using electronic product code (EPC)-compliant RFID tags. META Group analysts believe this timeline is overly optimistic, given the immaturity of EPC tag technology. According to META analysts, challenges surrounding EPC technology are the most limiting factors to use of EPC-based RFID technology.
"The inherent problem with EPC technology, from a pharmaceutical perspective, is the lack of anti-cloning features in the EPC chip itself," said Bruce Hudson, program director with META Group's Enterprise Application Strategies service. "With current EPC specifications, it is possible to program one chip with the exact data of another, effectively cloning the first chip. Without guaranteed authentication, the usefulness of RFID is significantly reduced."
META Group analysts believe RFID use within the pharmaceutical industry will be limited to a "track and trace" role until EPC specifications are revised, which could take up to two years. Once implemented, META predicts that RFID will prove extremely beneficial to the pharmaceutical industry, offering ROI in the following five key areas:
Inventory Management: Along with enabling improved inventory visibility, RFID technology can merge identity with environmental information to create an individualized expiration date based on the environment's effects on the active ingredients.
Recalls: In the event that a product recall is initiated, pharmaceutical organizations would be able to respond more efficiently and quickly in identifying the recalled product.
Patient Safety: By combining RFID-tagged drugs with other positive identification measures (e.g., patient identification, unit-of-dose bar coding), the FDA estimates that most of the 1.25 million adverse reactions and 7,000 patient deaths annually in the United States due to drug errors could be prevented.
Product Diversion: Diverting drug shipments from low-cost regions to higher-cost regions costs pharmaceutical organizations millions of dollars annually. Positively identifying shipments and tracking them to their intended destinations could significantly reduce the size of the "gray market."
Counterfeiting: Drug counterfeiting is a serious health issue, particularly in poorer regions of the world. Current recommendations are to deploy two forms of anti-counterfeiting measures — one visible (e.g., holograms) and one invisible (e.g., RFID tags) — to implement formidable obstacles to counterfeiting.
"Because of the compelling ROI for pharmaceutical organizations and their distributors, RFID use in the pharma industry will surpass that of CPG companies within 18 months," said Hudson. "However, major issues need to be addressed before we see full-scale deployment. In addition to authentication issues, the industry must address the validation of RFID systems by the FDA, the unknown impact of radio frequency energy on drugs and data management in light of competitors."

Thomas J. Arnold (18 July 1864 – 20 August 1906) was an English Protestant missionary to China in the late nineteenth century during the Qing Dynasty.

Decision to go to China
As a young man in London he felt beckoned to missionary service after experiencing an enlightening sermon at the West London Tabernacle Church.

Soon after discussing this call with his pastor he sailed for the China frontier with his colleague, William Remfry Hunt, in September 1889. The two young men had built up a close friendship when they studied diligently together at W. L. Moore Bible Institute.

Preparation
Arnold recognized the first major task in sharing the Christian faith with the Chinese was scaling the language barrier. He began this critical task in the city of Nanjing. Here he immersed himself in the Chinese language and culture for two years. During this arduous education process there must have been times when he questioned leaving London and a hopeful career as a skilled architect. Yet, in the developing missionary colony his architectural skills were also put to work. He designed and supervised the construction of several missionary houses, schools where thousands of students were educated, and a hospital that saw tens of thousands of patients.

Early work
Along with language study, Arnold also tried to blend in with the natives by using Chinese dress and wearing a queue hairpiece. He traveled thousands of miles on foot and by boat on itineraries where he would preach and sell Bibles and gospel tracts on the road. He also helped to train other missionaries in this method of itinerant evangelism. He worked at many of the large missionary stations and outstations in Nanjing, Lu Hoh, Wuhu, Chuchow, Wuwei Chow, and Fengyang-fu and occasionally encountered hostility and persecution. He also took itinerant trips to Nanjing and the surrounding areas with A. F. H. Saw, E. P. Hearnden, and E. T. Williams. During these trips, he would sell books and preach.

Arnold married Elizabeth Ince (1863-1950), who was also a missionary. Her study, like that of all early missionaries was with a private language teacher, as there was no language school available. Further accentuating the difficulty of learning the language was the inability of most language teachers to speak English.

During March 1892, Arnold worked in the village of Lieu Chang Hiew, which had not seen a foreign missionary in over ten years. He also worked with the town of Ta Tsung Chao. At first, the people in this village were suspicious of him, but soon became more open and friendly. Arnold had a gift for making people feel comfortable. During this year, he also filled in as a doctor. Although he never received any formal training in medicine, he often received hundreds of patients and did what he could to relieve their suffering. This commitment to helping people in a practical sense drew positive attention from some of the upper class Chinese as well. After filling in temporarily at the hospital, Arnold continued to preach in the villages of Luh Hoh, Sing Tszi, and Kei Keao Ying where he also opened the first boys' school. He often took these trips with his friend and colleague Dr. Butchart. Dr. Butchart was also the man who gave Mr. Arnold some of his instruction on medicine.

Elizabeth's first station after their marriage was in Luh Hoh. Their first house opened right out into the main street and had a courtyard, several main rooms and guest rooms, and a chapel. In order to dispel mistrust and prejudice against foreigners from the locals, Elizabeth allowed the local women to examine the contents of all her belongings. Thomas and Elizabeth were the first missionaries to move into the village of Luh-Hoh. While Arnold had made several trips there before, Elizabeth was the first Caucasian woman they had seen. Elizabeth, like her husband wore a native garment to blend in. Occasionally the local Chinese referred to her as a "foreign devil"; however she found them to be generally friendly and built more friendships with them. The Arnolds also ministered in Wuhu and Thomas Arnold and worked diligently at attempting to open the village of Lu-chou-fu with his colleague Dr. Butchart. This meant that Elizabeth was alone with their small children; however she remarks that she did not fear because "all the Chinese were her friends."

Mission hospital
The mission hospital construction, which was under the supervision of Thomas J Arnold, was completed in 1893 in Nanjing. It saw over 9,000 patients in less than a year. It was also during this period that Mr. Arnold felt a strong calling towards the people in Wuhu. While in Luh Hoh she attended the Chinese wedding of their landlord and his second wife. This revealed to her a deeper understanding of the plight of the Chinese woman. In 1894, Arnold focused more of his efforts in Wuhu and began plans to open a new church there. The children's day school he ran had also begun to see some healthy growth.

The First Sino-Japanese War occurred in 1895, which many of the missionaries thought would halt all their work. However, Arnold found it to have the opposite effect. He also had several exciting encounters during this period. While on a trip to Lu-chow-fu, he was almost executed as a Japanese spy. He was also given a personal escort from the magistrate to protect him from occasionally unruly crowds.

During 1896 Arnold felt his work was somewhat scattered and he had to waste much of his time traveling on a houseboat. However, he still felt that there were some good results. Arnold and his fellow missionaries were also in the process of opening a chapel in Wu-wei-chow, which was about 200 li, (about 100 km or 63 miles) from the nearest missionary station.

Arnold performed several baptisms during this year, including one with a man who had operated a wine shop. He encouraged him to change his profession as an act of sincerity to his faith. He covered 3,200 li (1,600 km or 1,000 miles) during the 125 days of travel, 1,000 of which were done on foot, the rest by boat. He also worked with the native Muslim population. In the beginning of 1897, he was extremely busy, taking in hundreds of visitors. During this year, he was so busy that he occasionally was unable to eat. The Arnolds also had a scare when their son became very ill, but he recovered during a temporary relocation to Japan. By the middle of 1897, the Arnolds went on their first furlough, which lasted eighteen months through 1898. On their return at the end of December 1898, they resumed their work in Chu-chow.

Boxer Rebellion
The Arnolds were initially in Kuling with their small children during the Boxer Uprising during 1900. After only being there a short while, they received a message that everyone had been ordered to Shanghai. They arrived with almost nothing and had much difficulty renting a room. The Arnolds finally acquired one, but it was completely without furniture. They tried to rent some beds, however they were infested with bugs. The Arnolds existed in this unsure state for eight months, after which they were able to return to their post.

Wuhu
The Arnolds received a joyful welcome from the Chinese Christians upon their return. Mr. Arnold then spent several months overseeing the boys' school in Nanking, until he was able to return to a more permanent position at Wuhu in 1901. This was excellent for Arnold, who had always had his heart there. However, he remarks that there were new conditions there in the attitude of the people; especially the officials presented him with a peculiar amount of difficulty, but the situation also presented new opportunities. There was also a large increase in the number of natives interested in the church, however, some of these inquiries desired only to reap the benefits of being associated with the Christians. In order to counter this, Mr. Arnold found it necessary to publicly denounce several Chinese people. There was also an epidemic of cholera during 1902 in which not a single native Christian died. This opened many of the non-Christians to question their beliefs and come to find out more about Christianity.

Death
In 1903, Wuhu acquired many new and competent teachers who greatly helped the education work there. Arnold's health began to deteriorate in 1904 but he continued to work into late 1905.

Arnold eventually died of a disease known as sprue, which slowly crept upon him, and which Elizabeth believed was a result of living in unsanitary conditions during many of his long journeys. In all Arnold had worked a total of 16 years in the mission field. After the death of her husband, Elizabeth took the children back to England and Rugby for their initial education and then moved to Hiram, Ohio, where her children went to college. Their home was in the current Hiram Historical Society building.

Sir Francis Bernard (baptisé le  – ),  baronnet, fut un administrateur colonial britannique, gouverneur du New Jersey (1758-1759) et du Massachusetts (1760-1769).
En 1768 il dissout la Chambre des Représentants du Massachusetts, qui avait envoyé aux autres colonies une lettre circulaire les appelant à rejeter les Townshend Acts qui levaient de nouvelles taxes de manière jugée anticonstitutionnelle. L'assemblée avait refusé de révoquer sa propre lettre, conformément à l'ordre de Lord Hillsborough, Secrétaire d'État aux colonies.

Biographie
Fils d'un pasteur du Berkshire, Francis Bernard, il se trouva orphelin à l'âge de 6 ans, et fut ensuite élevé par une tante mariée à Anthony Alsop. Interne de Westminster (1725), puis étudiant du collège de Christ Church, l'université lui accorda le titre de master of arts en 1736.  Il alla ensuite étudier le droit à Middle Temple et fut admis au Barreau de Londres en 1737, après quatre ans d'étude seulement (au lieu des sept normalement requis). Il ouvrit une étude à Lincoln, et occupa en marge de son travail plusieurs fonctions pour la ville. Ses voisins, les Pownalls, le rapprochèrent du Colonial Office, et des affaires de la Colonie du Massachusetts.

Bernard épousa la fille du shériff du Derbyshire, Amelia Offley, en décembre 1741, et dès 1757, le couple comptait huit enfants. C'est apparemment en quête de meilleurs revenus pour subvenir à sa famille qu'il prospecta un poste aux colonies ; toutefois, John Adams l'a dépeint comme

After how many years has the Lethal Weapon tv series premier the movie?
It was hosted by? and?
I think the Wacky Races was one of the offerings Penelope Pitstop.
What was the Show called? Who was the Host and who joined him to define a generation?
Close. Shirl was more 80's.
Well done Barney. It goes to show age and wisdom comes in small Dorsey's.
Daryl started as host and was joined for a short time by Peter McKenna. Ossie came on board for a trial later on and the rest is history.
The show transformed into Hey Hey it's Saturday on Saturday morning for about a decade before moving to Saturday Night as an alternative to Footy Replay. Of course you watched the footy and turned over just in time to catch the beginning of Red Faces.

Nos tetrads
Not surveyed
The Wiltshire population of this North American species derives from escapes and releases from wildfowl collections. Although these collections were first established in Britain in the late 17th century, Canada Geese were not recorded in Wiltshire until 1867 and even after that there were only sporadic records of small numbers until well into the second half of the 20th century. Breeding was first recorded in the county in 1967 but from then on numbers increased rapidly. They are now common on most Wiltshire rivers, canals and lakes.
Birds of Wiltshire recorded the presence of the species in 197 tetrads with breeding in 102 of them. There was little overall change in distribution between 1997-2000 and 2007-11 (Bird Atlas 2007- 2011 recorded the species in 196 Wiltshire tetrads), though the number of tetrads in which breeding was recorded increased by 22% to 124.
There was also a marked increase in the size of flocks: the average size of the maximum recorded flock increased from 369 in 1997-2000 to 468 in 2007-2011 (though the county record remains the 639 recorded at the Cotswold Water Park in 1993). Birds of Wiltshire estimated the total winter population in the county at around 2000.

Looks good. However, the sound is terribly disappointing.
Exciting video 🙂 That Monaco looks good – I look forward to seeing your yachts :D, but why "Flying helicopter…"? 😛 Did I miss something?!
Very pleasing indeed 🙂 The road surface seems to have a lot more detail in it than comparable versions, which is perhaps the most important aspect; it's very hard to set up the car correctly otherwise!
I looked around your site & couldn't find a definate answer so i'll ask here 🙂 will the mod include all the tracks of the '06 season or just a select few..or none? great work btw! thanks!
I saw that when the driver takes rough corner the camera is going deeper into the corner to make the curve more visible.
Did I ever tell you CTDP that I love you? LOL, this Monaco almost made me choke on my morning coffee. Fantastic, it outshines any current version, they cannot even be compared to this one.
@Sly – It's the way Whata has his rFactor settings tuned. He has turned on look-to-apex abit and this is why it looks like the car drifts/understeers.
@anger – Ahh well. You want a stick to play with. We never claim our sounds are great ;). And in the two years of development, if you cared to read the past 6months of the devblog you will see why the sounds are this way. But being someone that has more brain reactions to a stick than reading then I can see why you struggle.
@fred – Only just read your comment. I usually go through and read a few posts and respond.
I think the sound of that Renault should be deeper.
the track is too wide,isn't it?
Yep we know, don't worry about that, if i can talk Andy into it we'll hopefully do 2005/6 2007 and 2008 version of the track as in 07 and 08 there were slight changes made to the track.
I ask because I run a Historic GT & Touring Car league (http://efnetcars.mybb3.org) and we would really love to use Monaco next season, but seemingly every version of the track we tried LAST season had something wrong with it. Yours looks like it might be perfect–any chance this will be released in the next few weeks?
It's not awful close to being finished. For the moment Monaco has some serious financial problems, which caused all yacht owners to sell their boats, which explains the lack of ships. Also since there is no money, nobody can pay for light and all lamps where removed. Half the trees were cut for burning and campfires. Public transportation is non-existing, as well as any cars, Monaco is just too poor nowadays. Oh and the people got eaten by zombies.
What I want to know about the timeframe. Is how long Dahie can keep up with this anologies.
simply great, hope u'll keep "bad textures" to fit my fps crises ;p. Just wonder, why those two stripes rails in front of wayout areas?
also been waiting for this track, but nothing seems to be going forward :/ It's just such a superb track so I really think it's a shame. I can understand that the guys are busy developing the 2009 F1 mod and 1994 F1 mod, so now I'm wondering maybe you can publish a beta or perhaps send me this version only for private use (A). I know it's probably never gonna happen, but I thought why not ask? ^^ Anyhow the best version of Monaco out there! Keep on going CTDP!

Out of the question
Q: Every once in a while an expression that I've heard all my life suddenly sounds strange. Why, for example, do we refer to something unthinkable or impossible as "out of the question"?
A: When the word "question" showed up in English in the early 1200s, it meant (as it does today) something that's asked about, discussed, or debated.
English adopted the word from Anglo-Norman, but it's ultimately derived from Latin. In classical Latin, a quaestio was, among other things, a subject for discussion, which is a clue to the expression you're asking about.
When "out of the question" first showed up in the early 1600s, according to the Oxford English Dictionary, it meant "not relevant to the matter under discussion."
The earliest example of the usage in the OED is from a 1607 religious tract in which the English Puritan clergyman Robert Parker argues that the effective use of the sign of imposing hands (that is, the laying on of hands) "is out of the question."
And here's an example from A Defence of the Right of Kings, a 1642 tract in which Edward Forest attacks the writings of the Jesuit priest Robert Persons:
"This cunning and curious Composer of Bookes, and Contriuer of cases, doth in this his chiefe proposition, worke himself quite out of the question."
Over the years, according to the dictionary, the expression came to mean "not to be considered or countenanced; impossible."
This is an example of the new usage from The History of Betsy Thoughtless, a 1751 novel by Eliza Haywood: "A marriage with miss Betsy was, therefore, now quite out of the question with him."
The OED's latest citation is from James Ryan's 1997 novel Dismantling Mr Doyle: "And the yellow and red checkered head scarf Mrs Doyle produced as a possible necktie was, he insisted, out of the question altogether."

Q: Resize Image on drag maintaining aspect ratio not beyond certain width and height by draggging anchors or lines too I am using kineticjs I am trying to resize my overlayed picture by dragging anchors or lines.I am able to resize it with anchors but users should also be able to resize it by dragging the blue line. Code is here on the JSBin.Also aspect ratio should also be maintained.
ThankYou.

A: Here is a method to let the user drag the side of an image to resize it
A demo: http://jsfiddle.net/m1erickson/8VkLb/
Left: original size,  Right: being resized by dragging the right side of the image.

This example is for resizing by dragging the right side of an image.
You can modify this technique to let you drag any image side to resize.
Listen for stage's mousedown events:

*

*get the current mouse position

*did the user mousedown near the right side of the image?

*if yes, save the current mouseX position (this is the starting position of the drag)

*Also, save the images starting width and height (needed for proportional scaling)

Mousedown code:
$(stage.getContent()).on('mousedown', function (event) {
    var pos=stage.getPointerPosition();
    var mouseX=parseInt(pos.x);
    var mouseY=parseInt(pos.y);
    var ipos=kImage.position();
    var isize=kImage.getSize();
    var right=ipos.x+isize.width;
    if(mouseX>right-10 && mouseX<right+10){
        startRight=mouseX;
        startWidth=isize.width;
        startHeight=isize.height;
    }
});

Listen for stage's mousemove events:

*

*get the current mouse position

*calculate the scaling factor based on how far the user has dragged the mouse from the staring point.

*resize the image using the scaling factor.

Mousemove code:
$(stage.getContent()).on('mousemove', function (event) {
    if(startRight>=0){
        var pos=stage.getPointerPosition();
        var mouseX=parseInt(pos.x);
        var mouseY=parseInt(pos.y);
        var dx=mouseX-startRight;
        var scaleFactor=(mouseX-(startRight-startWidth))/startWidth;
        kImage.width(startWidth*scaleFactor);
        kImage.height(startHeight*scaleFactor);
        layer.draw();
    }
});

Listen for stage's mouseup events:

*

*clear the saved starting drag position (the drag is over)

Mouseup code:
$(stage.getContent()).on('mouseup', function (event) {
    startRight=-1;
});

Here's full example code:
<!DOCTYPE html>

    <meta charset="utf-8">

Drag the right border of the image to resize
it while maintaining aspect ratio.

A: You have a variable called "blueline" in your code, you need to modify your code heavily from here on.
When you add the anchors, you need to add 4 separate blue lines which act as anchors as well. Then listen to each line for proper behavior.
// blueline1.on('dragstart', function(){ resize('horizontal');}); // for each line
