Moon Child is a fabric soft sculpture of a male Spanish Luna moth (Graellsia isabellae). Both forewings and hindwings are hand painted front and back, with a wire frame on the inside to hold their shape. The body and head are made from faux fur I've painted to emulate the moths body design and stuffed with poly fill. His legs are wire, hand wrapped in fabric. His antenna are feathers. To me, moths are one of natures most beautiful creations, and the Spanish Luna my be my favorite. The soft minty green color broken into sections by the dark brown of the veins, with the strikingly bright eyespots in the center of each make this species look almost like a design from the arts and crafts movement.

The wife and mother of three Houston residents killed in a 2017 crash along Beltway 8 has sued a road construction company, saying the company's failure to properly warn drivers and safely manage traffic in a work zone led to the deaths.
A lawyer for Roxane Freeman filed the suit in a Harris County state district court on Monday against Webber LLC, a major road builder in the Houston area based in The Woodlands, and the general contractor on the work along Beltway 8 near JFK Boulevard, south of Bush Intercontinental Airport.
It was there on July 21, 2017, that Heywood Freeman, 41, was driving home with his two children, Heywood Jr., 5, and Halynn, 4, in the back seat. Freeman was stopped or slowed in traffic when the driver of a Ford F-250 pickup slammed into the back of his small sedan, setting off a chain-reaction of wrecks along the freeway where workers were widening the westbound lanes. Freeman and his children were killed.

The lawsuit contends the crash was the result of Webber's failure to properly warn drivers about the construction zone and the likelihood of stopped traffic. Cade Bernsen, Freeman's lawyer, wrote in that lawsuit that Webber did not correctly place signs and traffic control devices as required by the contract, creating a dangerous risk for drivers.
"At the end of the day, we feel it is going to be very clear what happened out there," Bernsen said.
Webber, through a spokeswoman, declined comment, citing the ongoing lawsuit. Freeman, through Bernsen, also declined comment.
The crash, one of many highlighted in a Houston Chronicle investigation last year that found the region is the worst major metro in the nation for roadway fatalities, included many of the factors that make the Houston region dangerous. Ongoing construction often leads to highways clogged with traffic because of closed lanes and work zones. Freeway traffic often zips along, until the entire road is slowed to a crawl.
That has led to shifting theories of what caused the crash that killed the Freemans. At the scene, witnesses told police the 66-year-old pickup driver, Alex Addy, was speeding at the time of the crash. Addy, who cooperated with police and faced a criminally negligent homicide charge, was able to provide information from the truck that showed he was traveling about 60 mph at the time of impact — 5 mph slower than the normal speed limit on the beltway but higher than the limit set within the work zone, but perhaps not posted where Addy could see it.
BUILT FOR SPEED: In Houston's traffic carnage, design makes a difference
As a result of the vehicle's speed, and questions about whether the construction zone was properly marked with warning signs, Harris County prosecutors were unable to sway a grand jury to indict Addy in June 2018. Following the disposition of the criminal case, Sean Teare, head of the district attorney's vehicular crimes division, called the signage "inadequate."
The Texas Department of Transportation, which approves plans for lane closures and work zones, meanwhile, has not said the signs or warnings were improper or missing. TxDOT does not verify closings on every job site, but expects contractors to follow the stated plans which are approved based on current safety and industry practices.
Webber remains eligible to bid on state road construction projects, said Raquelle Lewis, spokeswoman for TxDOT in Houston. Lewis also reaffirmed that there is no documentation within TxDOT that indicates the closing had improper or inadequate signage or whether errors were made when the lanes were closed on the Saturday night the crash occurred.
The work in the area had been ongoing for months when the fatal wreck happened.
In the interim, TxDOT has increased its public awareness campaigns urging drivers to slow down and be on the lookout for work areas. Earlier this month, TxDOT announced fatalities in work zones declined 20 percent from 2017 to 2018, with 161 fatalities statewide last year.
GAS TAXES TAKEN: Lawmakers say Texas getting shortchanged on highway funds
"Work zones present a different environment for drivers to navigate with concrete barriers, slow-moving heavy equipment and vehicles that may make sudden stops," TxDOT Executive Director James Bass said a statement. "That's why we're urging drivers to pay special attention in work zones on Texas roadways — for their protection and the safety of highway work crews."
Lewis said officials constantly re-examine how best to warn drivers, though she did not cite any changes made since the Freemans' fatal crash.
"As technology and work practices evolve, so, too, do our strategies and tactics," she said.

Reflections from a south-south exchange: what works in sustainable and equitable oil palm development for food and biofuels?
BOGOR, Indonesia (15 December, 2011)_Last September, CIFOR Research Domain 5 on "Managing the impacts of globalized trade and investment on forests and forest communities" organized a sharing and learning workshop as part of a European Commission-funded research project lead by CIFOR, entitled 'Bioenergy, sustainability and tradeoffs: Can we avoid deforestation while promoting bioenergy?'

This South–South exchange initiative aimed to promote the sharing of experiences and knowledge amongst key policy decision makers, industry representatives and researchers from countries in Southeast Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America (i.e. Brazil, Cameroon, Colombia, Ghana, Indonesia and Malaysia). Topics included sustainable and equitable options for oil palm development, and recommended policy shifts in these countries to support the transitions towards more equitable and sustainable models. The rapid conversion of large areas to oil palm plantations has a direct impact on local people's access to land, induces the displacement of food crop production, and causes direct or indirect deforestation.
Oil palm was brought from West Africa to Indonesia (to the botanical garden in Bogor) and to Malaysia (Selangor) as an ornamental plant at the end of the XIXth century. Production of palm oil for commercialization purposes began in 1911 in Indonesia, in Sumatra Island, and in 1917 in Malaysia, with the establishment of the first plantations. Colonial authorities or individual landholders owned these plantations. After independences, most of the plantations were appropriated by the national governments.
In the 1970s, a joint venture scheme between companies and smallholders called Nucleus Estates and Smallholders (NES) scheme was tested in Malaysia. It was also introduced in Indonesia under the translated name 'Perkebunan Inti Rakyat' (PIR, nucleus plantation and community) by the transmigration program, a public program which aimed at moving volunteers from the over populated islands of Java, Madura and Bali to the less populated islands of Sumatra, Kalimantan and Sulawesi.
The first PIR in the late 1970s were based on rubber plantations, followed by oil palm schemes in the 1980s. The usual NES scheme relies on a contract signed between a company, smallholders grouped in cooperatives, and banks, under the supervision of the government. Usually, the deal includes the handing over, from the village to the company, of a percentage of the total land to be developed. This land taken over by the company constitutes the nucleus of the plantation, in opposition to the plasma made up by all the smallholdings participating in the venture. Farmers entrust their plasma plantation to the company, which plants, manages and harvests the crops.
The landowners are paid a percentage of the harvest revenue after deduction of plantation establishment and management costs. Local governments participate in the process through facilitation of discussions between the partners and land titling. Banks keep land titles as collateral, and the company is responsible for collecting the repayments from the farmers. Charges are made for these services, and they all add to the farmers' debts.
Thanks to oil palm development, national and regional revenues considerably increased. Malaysia and Indonesia are currently leading the palm oil market, with about 4.85 Mha planted in Malaysia with a production of 17 Mt CPO and 2 Mt KPO in 2010, and about 8 Mha planted in Indonesia for a production of 19.7 t CPO in 2010.
The huge and rapid expansion of plantations raised concerns among NGOs and the civil society. Relations of social conflicts are abundant in Indonesia, either between local communities and private companies, or between local communities and transmigrants, or even between local population and local government. However, the reasons behind these conflicts are seldom linked to a rejection of the crop but rather to promises not kept or unfair benefit sharing. It is not oil palm development per se that generates conflicts, but the tenure arrangements that often favoured big companies, and discriminated against local groups and villagers.
Most conflicts in Indonesia are linked to land grabbing by companies taking advantage of unclear or contradictory legislation on tenure, and lack of recognition of local tenure rights. Oil palm smallholdings profitability is not to be questioned. Nonetheless, a high profitability is not enough to secure livelihoods over time, and the loss of access to land is a relevant issue for communities since it strongly threatens local livelihoods and increases poverty. Nowadays, there is no more land available to expand plantations in Malaysia. The moratorium on forest concessions signed by Indonesia and Norway prevents new planting in Indonesia. Thus Southeast Asian investors are more actively looking for available land in other regions.
Oil palm can be met in natural palm groves in Cameroon or Ghana, and has been exploited to produce edible oil and palm wine since ages. An artisanal sector of transformation in various products has developed, and women get significant job opportunities and thus income streams related to oil palm marketing and processing, which they lead. Large-scale plantations are present but smallholdings dominate both the production and the transformation of oil palm.
For example, in Cameroon, smallholders cultivate about 100 000 ha (56% of the country's plantations) compared to 70 000 ha of industrial plantations. In turn, in Ghana 40 000 ha of former English colonial plantations are under a NES scheme whereas 110 000 ha have been planted by independent smallholders and about 155 000 ha of wild groves are exploited by local communities.
Oil palm development in Latin America is more recent, even though a first plantation was established in Colombia in the 1950s, and a large-scale plantation in the state of Para in Brazil in the 1980s. Development plans have been put in place for supporting oil palm expansion linked to the food and biodiesel markets, sponsored by public policies and incentives in both Colombia and Brazil. In 2010, 402 000 ha was planted in Colombia (among which 250 000 ha are in production), and 79 000 ha in Brazil, but plans are to expand to 545 000 ha by 2019 in Colombia (and 1.6 Mha in 2032), and 10 Mha by 2020 in Brazil.
The production sector is dominated by the industry, smallholders represent only 19% of the planted area in Colombia, and less than 20% in Brazil. Yet, there is a growing interest in Colombia to expand alliances between cooperatives and companies, and the biodiesel development in Brazil is actively targeting smallholders through specific incentive programmes. It is noteworthy that in these countries, research and development programs for oil palm are being established in partnerships between public institutions and the private sector.
The expansion of oil palm in Latin America has fuelled some land conflicts due to insecure land tenure, but has also expanded on lands with consolidated tenure rights. Furthermore, it has not led to important forest conversion such as in Malaysia or Indonesia where plantations directly affected primary forests, since Latin America tends to develop in lands already converted to either agriculture or cattle ranching. Yet, nothing prevents that a more active oil palm development might place additional pressures on forests.
Given the interest of some governments in Africa for expanding oil palm plantations and the growing interests from Asian-based companies to invest in new regions, an exportation of the Asian model of oil palm development to Africa is most likely to happen in the next decade. Asian companies require large-scale plantations in one stand to be economically viable. The problem is, in Central Africa, extensive lands tracts with no local tenure claims might only be available under natural forests cover.
Smallholders have control over all the likely available lands under customary tenure system. It may not be clear in the statutory tenure frameworks nor from the sight of foreigners, but local customary authorities constitute vigorous and legitimate systems for managing local tenure rights. Thus local authorities are an important actor in the negotiations about land allocation and use, along with mechanisms for benefits sharing.
Land grabs related to the expansion of other commodity crops is already unfolding in several African countries. Oil palm development can only fuel this process.
An exportation of the Asian model of oil palm development to Latin America is less likely to happen due to already existing commitments on reducing forest conversion and including more extensively smallholders in the business models. Yet, undoubtedly, the likely arrival of investors along with expected market expansion will stimulate land concentration and result in additional pressures on forests.
In contrast, when technically and ecologically feasible, it may also imply an opportunity to place degraded lands back into cultivation, and increase the income streams for landholders looking for additional income opportunities in already consolidated agricultural frontiers. The question of fairness share of land among smallholders and large-scale plantations will, however, constitute a major debate given existing skewed land distribution and exclusion of smallholders from the benefits of agricultural modernization in Latin America.

Ghosts in the Rockies
Wolverines may be listed as threatened
By Sean Forbes Explorebigsky.com Contributor
As difficult as it might be to chase Bigfoot through the woods, searching for Gulo gulo – more commonly known as a wolverine – might actually be a bigger challenge in the higher elevation rock, snow and ice of the Northern Rockies.
The picture emerging from a new study – led by Dr. Robert Inman, the new Executive Director for the Craighead Institute – paints wolverines as solitary travelers patrolling territories between 300-750 square miles, hunting, scavenging and caching the leftovers in nature's refrigerator along the way.
The first telemetry study of wolverines in the Greater Yellowstone, the decade-long project that Dr. Inman led while with the Wildlife Conservation Society, focused on the Madison Range between the Spanish Peaks and Hebgen Lake, the Gravelly Range, the Centennial Mountains and south into Grand Teton National Park. Capturing 40 animals with the use of about 100 trap sites, Inman was looking for "everything" – their food habits, home range size, habitat use, survival rates, causes of mortality, reproductive rates and den sites.
What he found was a portrait of a unique and uncommon creature.
"[They're] basically born wearing snow shoes," Inman said, explaining that the 20- to 30- pound animals have paws four inches wide and up to six inches long. This allows them to travel efficiently in rugged, mountainous terrain, particularly in deep snow.
One study subject known as M304 traveled from Grand Teton to Pocatello, Idaho, and back in just over two weeks, and a short time later made the roundtrip to Gardiner, Montana and back in a week.
"When we pulled the data off the GPS collar, we opened up the map that has the points on there, and our jaws dropped," Inman said. "It really opened our eyes to, holy cow, these animals are capable of moving incredible distances over short periods of time, especially young dispersing individuals."
The researchers did all the capture work during winter, Inman said, because "if we put baits out in the summer trying to catch wolverines, we'd catch bears instead."
Yet even during warmer seasons, wolverines, the largest members of the weasel family, remain elusive. "People hardly ever see wolverines even though they're around. When there [are] five of them in the entire Madison Range, you can begin to see why that's the case. The odds of running into one are slim to none."
Those odds are largely responsible for the numerous petitions submitted to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in the last 19 years seeking protection for wolverines, which in turn have raised the demand for information and prompted studies like Inman's. With his effort and the listing process wrapping up in August 2014, many expect that the animals will be added to the list of threatened species – but perhaps not for reasons one would expect.
Like many other species considered predators around the turn of the 20th century, wolverines were nearly eliminated from the Lower 48 by poisoning practices common at the time. Recovering remarkably well – after poisoning practices were eliminated and trapping regulated – wolverines again occupy much of their historic terrain in the northern Rockies.
Despite population estimates for some of the study's mountain ranges falling between five and 15 individuals, wolverines have generally survived their conflict with humans.
"It's important to point out that the biology suggests that number is probably the same as it was 500 years ago," Inman said.
After floundering through chest-deep snow to gather data on animals that can be hard to find even while wearing radio collars, Inman and his co-workers in the WCS study found their most troubling characteristic, given current climate trends, was just how well adapted wolverines are for cold temperatures and snow.
Wolverines today inhabit a desolate, delicate niche where heavy snow packs persist well into spring – places like Canada, Alaska, the Cascade Mountains of Washington and Oregon, and the Northern Rockies. Warming temperatures could force the animals to compete more for precious food resources with other carnivores that access the highest elevations if they are not covered in deep snow and with insects and bacteria.
No one can say for certain what would happen without the protection of winter.
Assuming wolverines will be protected under the U.S. Endangered Species Act, and that the climate will remain a contentious issue, Inman's work will be essential in helping define what comes next.
In 2004 and 2008, for example, his work was cited in the creation of management units for the Montana trapping season.
"A lot of [our changes have] been based on research, and the most recent stuff was changed based on his work, in terms of identifying … how many animals and what harvest rates should be," said Brian Giddings, Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks Furbearer Coordinator.
Federal Endangered Species Act protection would eliminate the trapping season.
The WCS study also suggested other options including continued population monitoring, maintaining connective corridors between higher-elevation habitats, and reintroducing the species to the mountains of Colorado.
With the details still to be formed, Inman addressed the issue of funding through the example of the Pittman-Robertson Act – which puts money generated through the sale of firearms and archery equipment into a state coffer designated for conservation projects.
"It's been the most successful model for reestablishing populations and managing wildlife anywhere in the world," he said.
Having revived more prominent game such as whitetail deer, black bear and wild turkey, the expansion of that system – to include other gear like tents and packs – could have the same beneficial effect on non-game species like the wolverine.
"Society said that it wants to conserve species when it enacted the endangered species act," Inman said. "But until we develop a dedicated funding system that enables us to do the work that must be done to conserve habitats and monitor populations, we are just talking.
"Sportsmen figured out how to do that in 1937 with the Pittman-Robertson Act. We just need to follow that example and get it done for the broader range of species that we now ask our state wildlife agencies to steward."

We arrived in Bali during the night. Our driver, who we had booked in advance, was waiting for us at the airport. The arrangements were made from our home via the internet two weeks before we left. The driver was the first Balinese person we've met. We spent our entire drive to Ubud, which took us 1 hour, talking about his country and listening to his stories about his family and everyday life.
The next day, I woke up while my family was still sleeping. I decided to take a walk. The streets were fairly empty, but when I saw someone they always smiled and sometimes even greeted me.
I was feeling good and confident. This is Bali – a beautiful and safe place. The nature there is breathtaking. No matter where you stand, chance is you'll see a beautiful view, almost as if it wasn't even real. So, what is the best way to see it all? The answer won't surprise you – find a local guide. Why?
Many of us are used to right hand traffic. And so driving on the left side of the road can be challenging for us, if we want to drive a car. At the same time you should also remember that traffic in Indonesia is quite chaotic. There are no strict written rules. The general rule states that smaller vehicles should be on the lookout for the bigger ones. You can't be startled by horns either as they help people navigate the traffic.
As a driver you may see some festivals or weddings happening on a road, and there is no app to tell you an alternative route. You have to either drive around or ask a local. Oh, and don't forget your international licence!
Ceremonies in Bali are spectacular events, like Ogoh Ogoh, parade of huge fiercely looking statues or Galungan, a festival which commemorates the battle of good and evil. Some ceremonies are not so prominent but still interesting, as every village and temple organises them.
Every ceremony is a colourful, vibrant feast. People wear elegant attire. Women are in kebaya, kamen and seledang – a fitted laced blouse, a kind of sarong and shawl. Men wear shirts, kamen, selendang and udeng, a fancy head-dress.
Balinese people are open to strangers and don't mind if someone attends their celebration, even a cremation ceremony. But you can feel like an intruder and it would be nice to understand everything that you see. Locals can help you to feel not like an observer but like a participant. And with their guidance you can avoid making any major mistakes.
Talking to locals can teach you a lot and also provide some context. We had an opportunity to talk to our driver from the airport. This kind of conversation will show you things that are not written in books.
Locals know more, it's obvious. They know places you can't reach reading guidebooks or blogs. Many private guides know some waterfalls hidden in the jungle or cute lone beaches, where you can spend remarkable time. Sometimes they take tourists home so they can meet their family and feel what the everyday life is.
You spend a lot of time with your guide. Many talks, jokes and it rarely is only a client-contractor relation. You have fun together. Especially when you are climbing a mountain or surfing. Guides and drivers have professional profiles in web where they write not only about their guiding skills but about their hobbies and opinions too. So you can choose person you sense good vibes from. There is a chance that the friendship will last. I have some friends like that that I've met in Bali or in India.
Bali is a safe place. People are quiet, humble and trustworthy. Everyone is smiling. But of course a bad thing always can happen. If you don't feel confident, a trusted guide is the answer.
It's important, especially if you travel with small children. Sudden sickness? Any special needs? No problem! You have someone friendly, informed and oriented to count on.
To hire a driver is relatively inexpensive in Bali and quality of the service is really high.
To feel confident you have made the right choice, look for a guide when you are still at home. There are websites offering guiding services like TripAmigos.net where with just couple of clicks you can get tens of customized offers from the guides for your trip. Review personal profiles, read recommendations from other tourists, clear your doubts.

Our Community Vision for Change
DTES Vision for the 100 Block
The Downtown Eastside of Vancouver, which sits on unceded Squamish, Musqueam, and Tsleil-Waututh land, is a neighbourhood of historical importance that continues to stand as a local and international beacon of hope in resisting gentrification, the war on drugs, and colonization. The survival of the 100 Block, between Main and Columbia, as a "Community Hub" for the marginalized will be integral component of any strategy or vision for the City of Vancouver that is designed to mitigate the harms dealt by colonization, poverty, and other negative social determinants of health (i.e. violence against women, low education levels, a lack of social support networks, a lack of access to health services, etc.). As time has run out for the expropriation of the Regent and the Balmoral Hotels, with negotiations supposedly ending in May 2019, residents of this neighborhood remain worried that the City of Vancouver does not
support their interests nor the preservation of their neighbourhood.
Final Report: Our Community Vision for Change
This is a summary of CCAP's Vision and Action plan for the Downtown Eastside (DTES) based on over two years of intensive work by the Carnegie Community Action Project (CCAP) with 1,200 low-income DTES residents, and in co-operation with many DTES organizations. This Vision is a declaration that the DTES low-income community has a right to exist in Vancouver and to seek improvements for itself.
Our Community Vision Draft Report: Seeing It Our Way
This is a report on three Planning Workshops that the Carnegie Community Action Project (CCAP) held with 44 low-income residents of Vancouver's Downtown Eastside neighbourhood in July and October 2009. The Planning Workshops were the 5th stage of CCAP's consultation process to involve low-income residents in making decisions about the future of our community.
Mapping Report on DTES Community Assets and Challenges:
Our Place & Our Words
This is a report on 23 community mapping sessions that the Carnegie Community Action Project held with about 200 low-income residents of Vancouver's Downtown Eastside neighbourhood. The mapping is the fourth stage of CCAP's planning process to involve low-income residents in making decisions about the future of their community.
CCAP Interim Report on Community Visioning:
Nothing About Us Without Us
Between August 2007 and April 2008 the Carnegie Community Action Project (CCAP) conducted 15 visioning sessions with almost 300 Downtown Eastside (DTES) residents. In March and April, CCAP had 655 residents fill out a one page questionnaire about the community.

BERLIN (Reuters) -- German prosecutors raided Volkswagen's headquarters and other offices today as part of their investigation into the carmaker's rigging of diesel emissions tests.
The raid was carried out by three prosecutors and about 50 police officers, who searched Volkswagen office buildings and private residences in Wolfsburg, a spokeswoman for the prosecutor's office told Automotive News Europe.
VW said it was supporting the investigation and had handed over a "comprehensive" range of documents.
Also today, the company's top U.S. executive told a panel of U.S. lawmakers he knew the carmaker might be breaking U.S. emissions rules as long as 18 months before it admitted cheating diesel tests to regulators.
It was not until Sept. 3, 2015, that Volkswagen told U.S. regulators it had installed so-called "defeat devices" in some diesel engines to mask their true level of toxic emissions. U.S. regulators made public the wrongdoing on Sept. 18, Horn told the congressional committee.
Almost three weeks after it confessed publicly to rigging U.S. emissions tests, VW is under huge pressure to identify those responsible, fix affected vehicles and clarify exactly how and where the cheating happened.
The biggest business crisis in Volkswagen's 78-year history has wiped more than a third off its share price, forced out its long-time CEO, prompted investigations across the world and rocked both the car industry and German establishment.
The automaker has previously said the software could be installed on up to 11 million vehicles, mostly in Europe, but that for the majority of them it "does not have any effect."
In a statement today, Volkswagen said it was still investigating whether or to what extent the software interfered illegally with vehicles. "We are working intensely on technical solutions," a spokesman said. "For that reason, questions posed at this point of time are speculative."
Critics say giving top jobs to company insiders could also complicate the cleanup. For example, it would make it hard for the supervisory board to take legal action against the management board because, until he became supervisory board chairman, Poetsch sat on the management board as finance chief.
Economy Minister Sigmar Gabriel today urged Volkswagen to be pro-active in addressing its problems, but also said critics should not overstep the mark.

Q: Fixing Linefeed breaks I have a pipe delimited text file that comes on a daily basis with line breaks as a result of an online feed interruption.
Every line in the file starts with FORM_, so i normally open the file in notepad++, use the find and replace for either ^[^FORM] or ([^\S \r\n]*)\n([^\S\r\n]*) and manually fix the mistake.
Due to limitation in technology where I work, I am writing a vb script, that will end up as an executable, to among other things fix this issue.
I have looked on here for some possible answers and below is what I tried:
Reading the file one line at a time, then using regex to replace either of the above search criteria:
objFixFormFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile(FileLocation & filename, 1)
objWriteFormFile = objFSO.CreateTextFile(FileLocation & NewFileName, True)
Do while not objFixFormFile.AtEndOfStream
    If strReader = "" THEN
        strReader = objFixFormFile.ReadLine
    Else
        strReader = strReader & ";" & objFixFormFile.ReadLine
    End if
Loop
ObjFixFormFile.Close
strCleansedLine = RegEx.Replace(strReader, ("[^\S \r\n]*)\n([^\S\r\n]*)", "")
strCleansedLine = RegEx.Replace(strReader, ";", "\n")
objWriteFormFile.Writeline(strWriter)

That didn't work. When I try to do the .ReadAll version of the above code out of 125,000 records I only end up with 59,000 records.
Can you please advise what is the best way of doing this, as it needs to run on a daily basis?

A: Only write the linebreak for the previous line if the current line starts with FROM_:
Do Until objFixFormFile.AtEndOfStream
    line = objFixFormFile.ReadLine
    If Left(line, 5) = "FROM_" And objFixFormFile.Line > 2 Then
        objWriteFormFile.WriteLine
    End If
    objWriteFormFile.Write line
Loop
objWriteFormFile.WriteLine

objFixFormFile.Close
objWriteFormFile.Close

SPCK Assemblies - Vessel or Lamp?
To consider that we all have a unique part to play in our own learning.
Have available a new schoolbag, some large books, some jotters, a dictionary, an atlas, a microscope, a calculator and some pens.
You will also need an oil lamp or a candle lamp.
Read out the following statements to the children.
- Some people think you go to school to learn things.
- Some people think you go to school to cram lots of facts in your head.
- Some people think you go to school to pass tests and exams.
- Some people think you go to school, then go to college and then go to university so that you can get a good job and earn lots of money.
Repeat each statement one at a time and ask the children what they think about it.
Show the new schoolbag and then stuff it with the books, jotters, dictionary, atlas, microscope, calculator and pens.
Show the lamp, and then light it.
This means that you come to school with great potential inside you. There is something unique within each of you, and it is your job and your teacher's job to discover it and allow it to burst into flame.
Your unique potential might be an interest, a skill or a creative ability. Some of you may know what it is already, whereas others may not. That is what school is about. In school, there may be a teacher, a book, a computer programme or a course to help you develop that interest, skill or talent. You have that great potential to shine within you.
Ask them to think about a skill, talent or interest that they would like to develop in the next few months. How can they set about achieving this?

I always find it difficult to talk about myself, so what do I say?
Hi my name is James, I'm a husband, father of 2 boys and I love photography. The first memory I have is using my mum's camera to take family photos on holiday. From that moment on I was captivated, it gave me the passion for capturing precious memories.
From school to university I have always used photography in my work but my love of Wedding Photography did not start till later. While I was working at Jessops I had the opportunity to be a second shooter. This showed me a whole new side to photography and I was hooked, I loved being swept ed up in the emotions of the day . From that point onward's I knew what I wanted to do with my life.
I have now been photographing wedding for 5 years, I am still learning and growing as a photographer with every wedding being unique.
I become so connected to the bride & groom as I am with them for the whole day, so getting to know them is at the core of my philosophy.
To achieve this I organise informal meetings to talk through the wedding day, venue visits and an engagement shoot. I am always willing to answer any questions you have to make sure you have one less thing to worry about on your special day.
I get excited when new couples contact me and invite me to be part of their special day. I make sure that I am not a distraction, I blend into the background quietly capturing every event. Whatever your photographic needs, I hope that the galleries throughout the site give you a little sense of the great pleasure I take in working with people.
I take pride in the ability to put people at ease in front of the camera, I am never happier than when I am taking pictures.
Anticipation, emotion, happiness, smiles, and tears are all part of your special day and I will make sure that I capture all of these little moments so you don't miss a minute. I hope you enjoy exploring my site and it has inspired you to get in touch.
