Q: Restrict accessing arrays by wrong index I'm interested in adding a rule to coverity checkers and want to consult if it's feasible and what is needed to do to achieve.
I'm talking about C programming, and I want to restrict the access to arrays using a defined enumerator – and not any integer index.
For example I have two arrays: oranges and apples of sizes 5 and 10 cells accordingly.
In order to avoid misuse of the arrays, I want to define two enums (or typedefs if needed), one for oranges and one for apples:
Enum apples {
    A0 = 0,
    A1 = 1,
    A2 = 2,
    A3 = 3,
    A4 = 4,
}

Enum oranges {
    O0 = 0,
    O1 = 1,
    O2 = 2,
    O3 = 3,
    O4 = 4,
    O5 = 5,
    O6 = 6,
    O7 = 7,
    O8 = 8,
    O9 = 9,
}

And I want to add a rule to coverity that checks each access to these arrays.
For example:
Apples[A4];  //success

Apples[O0]; // coverity error

Apples[2]; // coverity error

Is it possible to add such rule ?

A: You can make a function what check this, if it know the length. I don't see another solution, because C doesn't check out of index.
<array_type> accessArray(<array_type> array, int index, int len)
{
    if (index > len || index < 0) {
        return <error_value>; // return an error value set by you
    } else {
        return array[index];
    }
}

A: //USING MODULUS OPERATOR TO AVOID OUT OF BOUND
#include <stdio.h>
#define LIMIT 5
int main()
{

         char array[LIMIT] = {'A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E'};
         for(int i = 0; i < LIMIT + 3; i++)
                 printf("ELEMENT = '%c'\n", array[i%LIMIT]);

         return 0;
}

A: To do something like this in pure C (rather than using an external tool), you could use structs instead of enums to represent your allowed index range. Structs are strongly-typed and so the type system will prevent you from using an indexer intended for one array to access the other.
There are several ways you could go about this - you could put the int index inside the struct, or (assuming the element range is contiguous) you could make your safety even more rigid by using the struct identities directly rather than any exposed integers at all:
typedef struct { int UNUSED; } appleI;
typedef struct { int UNUSED; } orangeI;

const appleI apples[5] = { };

const orangeI oranges[10] = { };

apple_t * Apples(appleI * i) {    //The actual array is hidden from view
    static apple_t _Apples[] = { ... };
    return &_Apples[i - &apples[0]];
}

orange_t * Oranges(orangeI * i) {
    static orange_t _Oranges[] = { ... };
    return &_Oranges[i - &oranges[0]];
}

#define A0 (&apples[0])
#define A1 (&apples[1])
// ...etc

...
orange_t myOrange = ...;
*Oranges(O2) = myOrange;
apple_t myApple = *Apples(A3);

*

*you can potentially add a range check to the middle of the "array" functions, to ensure no new instances of the index types are used (which would certainly be an error - these types should be opaque to user code)

*you can still use A0 + 1 and so on

*this stuff should be fairly easy for a powerful compiler to inline and reduce down to nothing

Home Blog Press release Welbeing makes headline news
Welbeing makes headline news
Posted on January 3, 2017 in Press release
The Welbeing acquisition of a telecare contact centre in Norfolk has made headline news in the county.
Welbeing took over Flagship Home's telecare business earlier this month and now provides support for 4,500 vulnerable and elderly people across East Anglia. A report of the new ownership, plus the work the Eastbourne-based firm has been doing, was featured on Nick Conrad's breakfast show on BBC Radio Norfolk.
Listeners heard from contact centre operatives at Welbeing's new Dereham site; users of the telecare system and a representative of Norfolk County Council who said: "We're helping so many people with some of the risks that you can reduce with technology."
Patricia, a telecare user who phoned the show, said: "You just press the button on your wrist and it goes straight through via your telephone to the centre and they answer immediately."
And Debra, who works in Welbeing's Dereham contact centre, told how vital the work of Welbeing is.
"Through the alarm line we laugh with people; we cry with people. We are there because we care and we know that for some you are the only people they will speak to that day," she added.
Welbeing has gone from strength-to-strength recently as it cements itself as one of the leading providers of telecare solutions for the vulnerable and elderly.
As well as its growth in East Anglia the company has also secured a contract for Gloucestershire County Council's countywide telecare monitoring service which is enabling people to stay living safely and independently within their own homes. The contract includes around 2,000 service users.
The acquisition and contract win now takes Welbeing's total connections to more than 70,000, alongside other recent new contract wins in East Sussex, Cumbria, Stonewater and Muir Housing.
Steve Smith, Welbeing's chief executive, said: "We were delighted to take on the business in Norfolk and help around 4,500 people across East Anglia. But it is doubly rewarding when we see the impact it is making to people's lives thanks to coverage like this radio show on BBC Radio Norfolk.
"More and more people are being helped by Welbeing across the UK and are discovering they can regain a sense of independence and peace of mind thanks to our solutions."

Think of them as your new pets. Your best friends. Your companions. You know, the kind of companions that might sting you – and then fly away, leaving their guts and stingers behind.
Go ahead, scoff. But Noah Wilson-Rich, the founder of Best Bees Company, transports tens of thousands of honey bees to hives across the greater Boston and Cape Cod areas. He considers them his pets. In fact, he's received so many bee stings over the past five years that he barely notices them anymore.
Noah's organic beekeeping service is the only of its kind. He develops and installs honey bee hives in gardens and on rooftops in urban habitats and revisits them every two weeks. The proceeds from thankful hive-owners contribute to Noah's development of vaccines to help bees better survive the winters and avoid diseases.
Bees weren't always Noah's best friends. As a kid, he was terrified of bugs. Below, he explains his connection with them – as well as the science behind the "disappearing bees" phenomenon. Plus: you'll never guess what wallet item he uses to remove stingers!
Job description in one sentence: I deliver, install, and maintain honey bee hives for gardeners and property owners and the greater Boston and Cape Cod areas to raise money for my research to improve honey bee health.
Where did you learn about bees? I helped manage honey bee hives at the veterinary school at Tufts. I'm also a 2007 graduate of the Bee School at the Essex County Beekeepers Association in Topsifield, Mass.
I have a mental image of students dressed in black and yellow, buzzing around the classroom. I actually thought it was only gonna be me and a couple of weirdos in the class. But there were 80 people enrolled – all regular, everyday people who just wanted a little piece of nature in their lives.
What sparked your interest in honey bees? Initially, because of my background in medicine, I was interested in learning how bees could resist diseases. There's an innate connection between humans and honey bees that's existed for thousands of years.
Coolest thing people don't know about your job? Watching honey bees is extremely relaxing. Hive owners just sit with a cup of coffee, watching the bees bring in pollen and nectar. It defies the common Omigod, bees! I'm so nervous! mentality.
You've never been scared of them? The beekeeper suit is like an invincibility cloak – it gives me confidence. But I still get stung regularly, which is never fun.
What does the suit look like? It's a white onesie jumpsuit with full arms and legs, and at the neck there's a zipper attached to a veil. The veil is mesh that surrounds my head and has a hole at the top made of harder mesh. It sits like a safari hat.
Why you should care about honey bees: Ecologically, they help plants reproduce by transferring pollen, which contributes to the fruits and veggies that humans consume. Economically, the estimated value of all the crops they pollinate around the world is about $15 billion annually. If honey bees are less available, costs of produce pollinated by honey bees will rise. We've already seen that with almond products.
Number of honey bees in each hive: Tens of thousands.
Number of bumblebees in each hive: About 100.
Tell me about the "disappearing bees" phenomenon. Just around 2006, when I started working with bees, news started popping up that they were dying from colony collapse disorder. Basically, that means thousands of older foraging bees were just vanishing from their hives – there were no dead bodies to examine what killed them. The younger and baby bees were still there, the queen bee was still laying eggs, and the hive looked healthy, with plenty of pollen and nectar.
Why is that so bad? Without [the older foraging bees], younger bees are forced to collect pollen before their immune systems are fully developed. So those younger bees would bring back disease agents and bacteria to their hives – or so we think.
How do you explain the disappearing? Researchers are still furiously figuring it out. Three leading hypotheses are pesticides, poor nutrition, and disease. The strongest argument is for disease: when fungi and viruses infect the hive, it collapses.
Is there a way to help? Oral supplements and bee yogurt filled with probiotics can help strengthen their immune systems. Immune boosters are added to a mixture of water and pollen, forming a peanut butter-like consistency. The goop is shaped into paddies and placed into hives for consumption.
Hardest part of the job: Although I patented a vaccination for these diseases, it's been impossible to get funding from grants. Best Bees Company is a way to raise money for my research.
Are your hive installation services in high demand? Right now, I'm managing 32 hives. I check on the hives once every two to three weeks, so I'm constantly traveling from Gloucester through urban Boston down to Cape Cod.
Charge for a honey bee hive: $975 for the first year, which is all-inclusive; $750 to $850 for each subsequent year, depending on location. We'll replace the bees at no additional cost if they don't make it through the winter.
I'm assuming these aren't killer bees, then. They're totally non-aggressive Italian bees. If you're not a flower, they won't care about you. Killer bees are from tropical habitats like Africa. Aggressive traits in honey bees were favored over time in tropical habitats because of selection pressure from predators.
Benefits of a honey bee hive: The honey is delicious – just take out the frame from inside the hive, which will be covered in honey and capped with wax. Remove the wax, let the honey drip into a pan, and dip a spoon in. No processing is required since we don't use any chemicals.
Little-known way to help a bee sting: Dribble vinegar onto a paper towel, and press it to onto the sting.
Little-known way to remove a stinger: The stinger still pumps venom after a bee sting, so the faster you can remove it, the better. Slide out the stinger with a credit card; your fingers can push the venom in with an accidental pinch.
Biggest pet peeve: Slow drivers. I have tens of thousands of bees in my car, people.
Noah Wilson-Rich gives the buzz on sustainable beekeeping practices.
1. Take a beekeeping course. You'll not only learn how to become a beekeeper, but also become part of a community and a greater network. For example, the Barnstable Academy in Cape Cod offers classes on how to breed local queen bees instead of importing them.
2. Join your local beekeepers association. Unless you want to do research, you don't necessarily need a background in science or biology. In fact, most of the people in the New York City Beekeepers Association are lawyers.
3. Remember, this isn't a cheap hobby.

In this work, we investigate the privacy-preserving prop- erties of encryption algorithms in the special case where encrypted data might be brute-force decrypted in a dis- tributed setting. For that purpose, we consider a prob- lem where a supervisor holds a ciphertext and wants to search for the corresponding key assisted by a set of helper nodes, without the nodes learning any information about the plaintext or the decryption key. We call this a privacy- preserving cryptographic key search. We provide a model for privacy-preserving cryptographic searches and we intro- duce two types of privacy-preserving key search problems: plaintext-hiding and key-hiding cryptographic search. We show that a number of private-key and public-key encryp- tion schemes enable the construction of efficient privacy- preserving solvers for plaintext hiding searches. We also discuss possible constructions of privacy-preserving solvers for key-hiding cryptographic searches. Our results highlight the need to consider the property of enabling efficient privacy-preserving solvers as an additional criterion for choosing which cryptographic algorithm to use.

Team USA names Gregg Popovich head coach, effective 2017
By Dan FeldmanOct 23, 2015, 12:44 PM EDT
Mike Krzyzewski is resigning as Team USA coach after the 2016 Rio Olympics, and his successor is no surprise – Spurs coach Gregg Popovich.
USA Basketball release:
The future leadership for the USA Basketball Men's National Team was disclosed today when USA Basketball Chairman Jerry Colangelo officially announced that five-time NBA championship and longtime San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich has been named head coach of the USA Basketball Men's National Team for the 2017-20 quadrennium. Additionally, USA Basketball announced that Colangelo will continue in 2017-20 as Managing Director of the USA Basketball Men's National Team and that current USA National Team head coach Mike Krzyzewski following the 2016 Rio Olympics will move into a special advisor role with Colangelo and the USA National Team for 2017-20. USA Basketball's Board of Directors approved the three selections.
As head coach, Popovich will coach the USA National Team over the course of the 2017-20 quad, which could possibly include all USA Men's National Team training camps, and if the USA qualifies, the 2019 FIBA World Cup in China (dates TBD) and the 2020 Summer Olympic Games (July 24-Aug. 9) in Tokyo, Japan.
"I'm extremely humbled and honored to have the opportunity to represent our country as the coach of the USA National Team," said Popovich, a 1970 graduate of the U.S. Air Force Academy. "What the program has accomplished over the last decade under the leadership of Jerry Colangelo and Mike Krzyzewski is truly impressive. I will do my utmost to maintain the high standards of success, class and character established by Jerry, Coach K and the many players who have sacrificed their time on behalf of USA Basketball."
The USA National Team currently owns a 63-game winning streak that dates back to 2006 and includes 45 consecutive victories in FIBA and FIBA Americas competitions and 18 consecutive exhibition wins. The USA men have won back-to-back Olympic gold medals (2008 and 2012) and back-to-back FIBA World Cup gold medals (2010 and 2014) for the first time ever.
"I'm absolutely delighted to announce Gregg Popovich as head coach of the USA Basketball Men's National Team for 2017-20. There is no doubt in my mind that we have the great fortune of bringing on board one of the NBA's best and most successful coaches ever to lead the USA National Team for the 2017-20 quadrennium. By making this decision now, it will allow us to have a clean, efficient and immediate transition following the 2016 Olympic Games," said Colangelo, who has served as the Managing Director of USA Basketball Men's National Team program since 2005 and has seen those teams compile a 75-1 record.
"Obviously this is an incredibly exciting step for the USA Basketball Men's National Team program as we will transition following the 2016 Rio Olympics from one of the game's greatest coaches in Mike Krzyzewski to another of basketball's greatest coaches in Gregg Popovich. This progression plan will also help ensure that our National Team will continue to build on the culture and success we have achieved since launching the program.
"The USA Basketball Men's National Team since 2005 has accomplished a number of remarkable things. We have established the United States as the world's number one basketball country, and done so by showing the utmost respect for the sport and for all nations and players. Our players have been dedicated and committed to our gold medal standards and are positive ambassadors for the sport and for the United States. I'm confident that this will continue to be the case with Coach Popovich as our head coach.
"The 2017-20 quadrennium will be challenging with FIBA's announced changes to its competition schedule and the new qualifying process for the World Cup and Olympics. With FIBA moving the FIBA World Cup to 2019, a year later than when it has been held in the past, we will need to reorganize how we prepare for our international competitions.
"Lastly, I am excited and looking forward to continuing to lead the USA National Team program in 2017-20 and along with everyone associated with USA Basketball, we are excited that Coach K has agreed to stay on as a special advisor for 2017-20. There's no question that we will benefit from his vision and his experiences with USA Basketball and in international basketball."
Since 2006, USA National Teams have compiled a spectacular 75-1 record and claimed top honors in five of six FIBA or FIBA Americas competitions. Just as importantly as the USA National Team's success on the court, the duo also reestablished the USA National Team and its members as positive ambassadors for the United States and the sport.
"I am honored, and thrilled, to continue with USA Basketball in the role of special advisor. Since Jerry Colangelo invited me to play a larger part in the USA Basketball program in 2005, this experience has been so rewarding professionally and personally," said Krzyzewski. "Some of the most exhilarating moments in my coaching career have occurred because of that association, so I am humbled to continue the affiliation with USA Basketball in this capacity. Until then, we have significant work to do to properly prepare our team for the challenges we'll face in Rio at the 2016 Olympics.
"Gregg Popovich is the ideal choice to take over as head coach of the USA program. His long track record of success – both in terms of winning championships and creating a culture of excellence – are well documented and, rightfully so, he is considered among the very best coaches in the world. Because of his military background in which he selflessly served his country, coupled with his unique ability to bring out the best in his teams, this leadership appointment makes perfect sense. Undeniably, he will incorporate the highest of standards, which are unique to him, that will only enhance the USA Basketball program. I look forward to working with and learning from Gregg and Jerry Colangelo as they lead Team USA into the future."
Popovich is an outstanding choice.
His peers recognize his excellence in all realms of coaching. An Air Force veteran, Popovich will respect the significance of this position.
I can't imagine a better fit.
Good for Colangelo for announcing this now rather than letting other coaches campaign for the spot. USA Basketball has built a tremendous amount of unity in the program, and it appears this transition will be smooth.
Now, Colangelo can get to the much more difficult task of picking the 2016 Olympic roster.

The former Black Sabbath singer (70) fell at home earlier this year, aggravating injuries from a near-fatal quad bike crash in 2003.
The veteran rocker told Clash magazine he could not afford to rush into the European leg of his farewell tour and risk disappointing fans.
He said: "I want to be 100% ready to go. I can't afford to go out there and go, 'I'm done. I need to get more rest'.
"I can't do that, because people would go, 'F****** hell, he's never gonna come out again'."

Even on "hot" or "cold" days, the temperature rarely exceeds 95 degrees or drops below about 73 degrees, even at night. The months from October through February are the rainier times of the year, but the island only receives about 16 inches of rain annually.

Are you considering taking a tropical vacation? What islands are you considering? You have probably heard of Aruba, but do you know where it is? Located in the southern-most portion of the Caribbean Sea, Aruba is positioned just 15 miles off the coast of Venezuela. This southern location makes for a more arid climate than other islands of the Caribbean. This is a desirable fact for many people who prefer dry desert-like conditions rather than hot, sticky climates. If you pull out a map of Aruba, you will see just how small the island really is. 20 miles long and about 7 miles wide at its widest point, this tiny island is one you can expect to see all of during your stay there.
Most of the tourist locations are set on the western coast of Aruba, which you can easily see with a quick look at a map of Aruba. This is where the capital of Oranjestad is located, as well the airport and many of the most popular resorts. Obviously, since people go on tropical vacations to be near the water, all the resorts are clustered on the coast. That way, all guests get rooms with an ocean view! The western coast is the location of choice because the waters on this side are much calmer, though world-class surfing takes place on the opposite coast.
While a map of Aruba will show many other small tropical islands in the surrounding areas, you can rest assured that your choice to visit Aruba is undoubtedly the best one you could make. Having the position it does places it south of the hurricane belt. This fact is important for the island's tourist business as you can almost guarantee that no hurricanes will be seen there for very long periods of time.

Also, a map will indicate that Aruba is part of the tiny "ABC" islands in the southern Caribbean. The other nearby islands are called Bonaire and Curacao. Now that you know a little more about Aruba, you should be comfortable being able to identify it on a map.
There are many draws to visiting Aruba. In any vacation setting, one of the best parts can be enjoying unique dining opportunities. If you had the chance to eat the local fare at a reasonable price, would you take advantage of it?

Throughout the day, you will need prime dining options to keep your energy level up and your taste buds satisfied.
Obviously, the convenience of being able to eat right at your hotel will ease the stress of your vacation. However, this will only be the case if the food is highly enjoyable. When you stay at the right Aruba hotels that are known for the dining experience they provide their guests, you will find that the diners at the next table may be local residents or visitors from other hotels. The other tourists visiting from nearby hotels are the ones who heard too late about the great dining offered by the hotel you chose to stay in.
Manchebo Beach Resort, Divi Village Beach Resort, Divi Dutch Village Resort, Amsterdam Manor, and Hyatt Regency Aruba are a few of the hotels on the island that are famous for their dining. All of these resorts, located in areas from Eagle Beach and Palm Beach to the capital city of Oranjestad, feature room service. Each of them also features an on-site snack bar, except Divi Dutch Village Resort. Other Aruba hotels like Renaissance Aruba Resort, Bucuti Beach Resort and Holiday Inn Sunspree are great hotels with nearby dining options. This is important because no matter how delicious and varied the food at your hotel may be, you will undoubtedly want to try out some local eateries as well.
While your overall stay in Aruba will be defined by much more than simply the dining options, it is something that many guests overlook until their stomachs begin growling once they have arrived at their destination. Remember that these highlighted Aruba hotels are not the only ones that offer great dining options to their guests. Likewise, if you are interested in other activities like tennis, sailing and other entertainment, these often come in packages from the hotel.

Dividing her time between studios in Cambridge and St Ives, Elaine brings to her mixed media paintings the freshness of two outlooks. Small groups of cherished objects on windowsills are a favourite theme, giving the further vision of a near or distant view through the window. A popular artist, Elaine has enjoyed many successful solo shows at galleries up and down the country, as well as previously at Yew Tree.
Well-known for her distinctive blue striped domestic stoneware, Sue has made several large pieces for this show, as well as her familiar bowls, teapots, jugs and plates. Japanese fabrics and ceramics have been an inspiration but it is mainly 1950s Rye Pottery, which delighted her as a child, that now she retains as a stimulus.
Robina creates her striking glass panels by acid-etching flash glass and layering one piece upon another to build up a rich image reminiscent of patterned fabric brought alive through the play of light through the colour. Sea birds, animals and folksy motifs, often with a humorous twist, are among favourite subjects.
Represented in museum collections world-wide, Wendy is the most versatile of designers, creating not only innovative and exquisitely made jewellery but also large scale outdoor structures including gates for the V & A and St John's College, Oxford.
A modest collection of her enamelled, jewelled, gold and silver stacked rings are shown here on their distinctive perspex stands.
Duibhne's jewellery is distinctive in design and softly feminine in appeal. She combines rare and unusual precious and semi-precious stones with beaten gold and silver in necklaces and earrings.
In her colourful, abstract ceramic wall pieces, Diana uses different clays almost as collage, building up a pattern of colour and movement in three series of work, inspired by walks along the Cornish coast path, gardens and sea birds. Similar techniques are used in her tall totems.
Many of Kate's semi-abstract paintings show her love of plants and of the patterns and textures of old fabrics. She uses oil on card and board and scrapes back the layers so that hints of previous incarnations appear in the finished work.
Memories of her 20 years in Cornwall enter Sheila's small oils, despite her current surroundings in West Wales. By flattening perspective she gives an unusual flavour to her intimate domestic subjects, with often a glimpse of the sea through a window.
Both architect and artist, James uses malleable carbon fibre poles to create sculptures which sway in the wind, moving from apparent equilibrium to total chaos and back again. Lights can be attached to the tips, giving a mesmerising effect in darkness.

Relief map of the Panama Canal - Miraflores and Pedro Miguel locks plus the new Millennium Bridge. One of the few engineering marvels in the world with its own palindrome, the Panama Canal should be on everyone's list of must-see places. Ninety years after its completion, this link between two great oceans is as vital and vibrant as ever. It is also one of the greatest testaments to good old-fashioned Yankee ingenuity that the world has ever seen.
Travelers have always made their way across the 50-mile isthmus that connects North and South America, dubbed the "Crossroads of the World." But, until the canal was built, the trans-isthmus trek involved a winding path through jungle rivers. In 1880, the French began a canal-building project that after twenty years ended in failure and the death of an estimated 20,000 workers. The U.S. took over in 1903, poured $352 million dollars into the project, and opened the Panama Canal in August of 1914.
We Continue Through The Mira Flores Locks
Notice when they close or are "locked" they form a wedge so as to "self-seal" with the pressure from the upper lock!
We Are Exiting The Miraflores Locks On Our Way To Pedro Miguel Locks
Hydraulic motors open and close the locks in a short time! There are two sets of lock JUST incase a ship would run into and damage the first one the second keeps the lake from draining into the ocean!
Study The Photos In Time Sequence...
Beginning to open
Wide open and we are moving forward!
Note the dual gates in case of a failure! We would not want to drain the entire lake now would we???
Note the depth is even accurate!!!
Lock Set #2 - The Pedro Miguel Locks
Pedro Miguel Locks
We have passed the Miraflores Locks and ready to enter the Pedro Miguel locks and then into the canal which was dug to enable the ship to enter Lake Gatun!
Did You Know? - We are at the entrance to the Pedro Miguel Locks, second set on the Pacific side! GPS is pointing the way to the second set of locks on the Pacific side. Once out the initial locks we have a few miles to sail before entering the second set of locks.
The lake is situated in the valley of the Chagres River. It was formed, and the river widened and deepened, by the construction of the Gatun Dam about 10 km (6 miles) from the river's mouth in the Caribbean Sea in 1907–1913. The geography of the area was ideal for the creation of a large lake here; the hills bordering the valley of the Chagres open up widely around the area of the lake, but come together to form a gap just over 2 km (1.4 miles) wide at the location of the dam.
The damming of the river flooded the originally wooded valley; almost a century later, the stumps of old mahogany trees can still be seen rising from the water, and submerged snags form a hazard for any small vessels that wander off the marked channels. Gatun Lake has an area of 425 km² (164 square miles) at its normal level of 26 m (85 ft) above sea level; it stores 5.2 cubic kilometers (183,000,000,000 ft³) of water, which is about as much as the Chagres River brings down in an average year.
With the creation of the lake many hilltops became islands. The biggest and best known of them is Barro Colorado Island, home of the world famous Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute (STRI). The lake has given its name to the Gatun structure, which may be an eroded impact crater.

Mindfulness and compassion — being aware and being kind — are continuing to gain recognition as pathways to increasing clarity, connection and well-being at home, in school and at work. The benefits of these practices have been shown in academic performance, emotional regulation, physical health, and interpersonal relationships. Cultivating these qualities of being present, accepting and engaged in daily life can be powerful in building positive relationships with oneself, others, and the world.
In this 4-week course, participants will be engaged through guided meditation, teaching, discussion, journaling, gentle movement and relating games to deepen mindful awareness and compassion. Participants will develop awareness and management of thoughts and emotions, learn to identify and work with stressors, and cultivate self-compassion and kindness.

It has taken me more than a year to publicly write these words, and it's still not easy. But here goes, at last: I lost my job. Thirteen months ago. This was not ideal.
I've repaired Adirondack chairs that were rotting and turned shipping pallets into adorable porch swings. But for my money (or lack thereof), peapod wine is the ultimate trash-to-treasure. We literally are turning shells that were bound to be thrown in with hog slop into quite drinkable table wine.


The contemporary design of the medium-sized Santa Fe pellet stove from Quadra-Fire easily fits with any home decor. Along with thermostat controlled heat settings, you now have maximum control for heating your home. This stove will put out over 30,000 BTU and is rated to heat up to 1500 sqft.
Now five years old, device has now decided to start on an intermittent basis. Regular maintenance performed. Vacuum hose checked and cleaned. Dealer not very knowledgeable, and manufacture keeps pushing me back to them. Seems no one has an answer how to correct this. If you buy one of these, know you will be on your own.
I've had this stove for 5 years now. Convection blower is very weak, stove is very noisy especially when a clinker forms in the bottom of the firepot and seems like I'm constantly cleaning this thing. Stove is mainly made from thin sheet metal so it is noisy for that reason also. This is going down in my basement workshop and being replaced with a Harman P61.
i bought my stove about 3 years ago and this year it would not release pellets. everyone who knows stoves had an opinion but one person i know insisted it was the vaccum switch and he was right. now it works fine.
I bought my stove in October and just had it replaced yesterday (2 months later). It will not start up by itself. If we want the stove to start we have to push the reset button. Going to have to call service AGAIN!
I have a 1100sf house and I'm having a hard time even heating that room that the Fireplace is in. The dealer keeps telling me that it because it's cold outside.BULL!! I have turned the fan on high and opened the filler all the way open. Does anyone have a answer for why it's not putting out the heat?
Bought the SF AE model in September. I have burned about 1 ton of pellets so far. Works flawlessly! The system was clogged once but the relief was a few seconds with the tool provided by Quadra Fire. Read the manually carefully. It heats my 2600 sq foot house (2 story). I need better air handling, but that's not the fault of the quadrafire. I recommend it highly.
The highly efficient Quadra-Fire Castile pellet stove delivers will heat a 1500 square foot home, with low emissions at 0.7 grams/hour. Puts out 8,000 to 30,000 BTUs.
This stove uses three independent feed rates and provides an adjustable convection blower to moderate the stove's heat output from 15,000 to 40,000 BTUs.
