Scores of Houthi rebels were reportedly killed in artillery shelling near the border with Saudi Arabia on Sunday as the two-year conflict deepened in war-torn Yemen.
In a statement, the Yemeni army said its forces and Saudi-led artillery had pounded Houthi sites in Midi and Harad districts in the western Hajjah province near the Saudi border.
"Scores of Houthis and their allies were killed and injured in the attack," the statement said, giving no exact number of casualties.
There was no comment from the Shia Houthi group on the claim.
Meanwhile, four Houthi militants were killed and seven others injured in clashes with pro-government forces in the western Taiz province on Saturday, according to a statement released by pro-government forces.
"Two pro-government fighters were injured in the violence," the statement said.
Elsewhere, three civilians, including two children, were killed and four others injured in shelling by Houthi rebels in eastern Taiz.
Another child was killed by a landmine explosion in the same province.
Yemen has been wracked by chaos since late 2014 when the Houthi rebels and their allies overran capital Sanaa and other parts of the country.
The conflict escalated in March of last year when Saudi Arabia and its Arab allies launched a major air campaign aimed at reversing Houthi gains and supporting Yemen's Saudi-backed government.
Nearly 7,000 people have been killed in the Yemeni conflict — more than half of them civilians — while another three million are estimated to have been displaced amid a spread of malnutrition and disease.

**MM(13) had his final on Tuesday, so we are done with this 3-school nonsense. Woohoo!
It's still a little messy since he doesn't have a last period class and MH is going to pick him up early for the next few weeks. On one hand. On the other hand, it's on his way home, so maybe it's not that big of a deal. Though he gets out of work a while before MM gets out. I don't know. We hadn't discussed that part. Maybe some extra driving, but at least no more sitting around and waiting.
**I think I am over the hump on a big work project. PHEW!
I could feel it on Tuesday. I woke up crazy early and so went on a 2-mile walk around the lake. It was a billion degrees during the day, so in the evening we went to the pool (walking distance). It was just divine. Life is good.
Back to vacation lifestyle. I had failed miserably the past 9 months or so (don't remember ever being that busy, since having kids) but the rest of this year is looking up.
**The last few weekends we have gone out quite a bit. In a frugal manner. Free movies, using free gift cards, taking advantage of memberships, etc.
We used up our last dining gift card (credit card reward from last year) so I mentioned to MH that I might keep an eye out for a meager reward like that. If that's all there is, is better than nothing.
**I am so behind on posting that I guess I will just start with this weekend.
Yesterday DL had his friends over. Their plan was to work on their band, but thankfully I mentioned to have them bring their swim suits. The band thing didn't work out so well, and instead they really enjoyed their time at the pool. (DL is getting way into drumming. I've got a really old hand-me-down drum pad thing and we will probably him a fancier one for his birthday).
& MM(13) is friends with all of them, so he hung out with the younger kids yesterday.
That reminds me that we did discuss birthday plans. It sounds like MM is going to try to get a group of 13yos at the water park. Summer is a tough sell though. So, will see what we can do. We already discussed it. If everyone can go, it's just going to be the big kids. If everyone can not go (most likely) then DL and a mutual friend of theirs will be invited. I am hoping MM can find one or two friends who will be in town. (DL doesn't seem to care too much either way).
DL's new best friend at the new school shares his birthday. There was talk at some point of some mega birthday, but his friend sounds like he wants to bow out of that. Now his friend wants DL to have a party and he is not going to have a party? Regardless of how it works out, they will have to co-ordinate somewhat. So that they don't both have a party on the same day. For now, it seems like it will be rather low key. Just a sleepover at our house, or something like that. (Though it's way more fun to sleep at other people's houses, and that is what DL is pulling for. Sounds fine by me! He's got some time to talk his friend into it.).
I forgot to say, we always stay home big Holiday weekends. Too many crowds. We hadn't planned much of anything, but had some impromptu get-togethers. MH has a friend coming over to watch a movie, too.
P.S. I shared a couple of easy recipes in my last post, if you missed it.


delicious pie is ever more delicious when made with fresh fruit. direct from the farms. yum. so a few weeks ago, a small group of us traveled 1 1/2 hours south to swanton berry farms to pick olallieberries. as i might of mentioned before, olallieberries are the most perfect pie berry – so tart and yet so sweet. i have gone to phipps ranch to pick berries for many years, but they were all cleaned out by the time we wanted to go. the olallieberry season is a short one, which, with fantastical name like olallieberry, doesn't help demystify this elusive berry.
…i have officially entered mission pie's 5th annual pie baking contest and will be making my traditional olallieberry pie!
so come join us! sunday, august 28th at mission pie (corner of 25th street and mission) from 2:30-4:30. taste 25 pies for free and cheer me on!
i'll make a pie just like this one…doesn't it look good?!
rubetta!!!! I heart YOU and ollalieberries!!!! I will be rooting for you from LA!!!!

Рабочее предложение () — документ из серии пронумерованных информационных документов Интернета, содержащих технические спецификации и стандарты, широко применяемые во всемирной сети. Название «Request for Comments» ещё можно перевести как «заявка (запрос) на отзывы» или «тема для обсуждения». В настоящее время первичной публикацией документов RFC занимается IETF под эгидой открытой организации Общество Интернета (). Правами на RFC обладает именно Общество Интернета.

История
Формат RFC появился в 1969 году при обсуждении проекта ARPANET, его предложил Стив Крокер и он же написал первый RFC. RFC 1 был опубликован 7 апреля 1969 г. и назывался «Host Software». Первые RFC распространялись в печатном виде на бумаге в виде обычных писем, но уже с декабря 1969 г., когда заработали первые сегменты ARPANET, документы начали распространяться в электронном виде.

Большинство ранних RFC было создано в Калифорнийском университете Лос-Анджелеса и .

С 1969 по 1998 гг. бессменным и единственным редактором RFC был Джон Постел. После его смерти Общество Интернета (ISOC) поручило редактирование и публикацию RFC  Университета Южной Калифорнии.

Очерк истории RFC за 30 лет с 1969 по 1999 гг. представлен в RFC 2555.

Очерк истории RFC за 50 лет с 1969 по 2019 гг. представлен в RFC 8700.

Содержимое RFC
Несмотря на название, запросы на отзывы RFC сейчас рассматриваются как стандарты Интернета (а рабочие версии стандартов обычно называют драфтами, от  — черновой проект). Согласно RFC 2026, жизненный цикл стандарта выглядит следующим образом:
 Выносится на всеобщее рассмотрение интернет-проект (). Проекты не имеют официального статуса и удаляются из базы через шесть месяцев после последнего изменения.
 Если проект стандарта оказывается достаточно удачным и непротиворечивым, он получает статус предложенного стандарта (), и свой номер RFC. Наличие программной реализации стандарта желательно, но не обязательно.
 Следующая стадия — проект стандарта () — означает, что предложенный стандарт принят сообществом, в частности, существуют две независимые по коду совместимые реализации разных команд разработчиков. В проекты стандартов ещё могут вноситься мелкие правки, но они считаются достаточно стабильными и рекомендуются для реализации.
 Высший уровень — стандарт Интернета (). Это спецификации с большим успешным опытом применения и зрелой формулировкой. Параллельно с нумерацией RFC они имеют свою собственную нумерацию STD. Список стандартов имеется в документе STD 1 (сейчас это RFC 5000, но нумерация может измениться). Из более чем трёх тысяч RFC этого уровня достигли только несколько десятков.
 Многие старые RFC замещены более новыми версиями под новыми номерами или вышли из употребления. Такие документы получают статус исторических ()

Практически все стандарты Глобальной сети существуют в виде опубликованных заявок RFC. Но в виде документов RFC выходят не только стандарты, но также концепции, введения в новые направления в исследованиях, исторические справки, результаты экспериментов, руководства по внедрению технологий, предложения и рекомендации по развитию существующих Стандартов и другие новые идеи в информационных технологиях:

 Экспериментальные () спецификации содержат информацию об экспериментальных исследованиях, интересных для интернет-сообщества. Это могут быть, например, прототипы, реализующие новые концепции.
 Информационные () RFC предназначены для ознакомления общественности, не являются стандартами и не являются результатом консенсуса или рекомендациями. Некоторые проекты, не получившие статуса Предложенного стандарта, но представляющие интерес, могут быть опубликованы как Информационные RFC.
 Лучший современный опыт (). Эта серия RFC содержит рекомендации по реализации стандартов, в том числе от сторонних организаций, а также внутренние документы о структуре и процедурах стандартизации.

Почти все стандарты разрабатываются под эгидой каких-либо научных или интернет-организаций (например W3C, IETF, консорциум Юникода, Интернет2).

Запросы на отзывы официально существуют только на английском языке. Строгих требований к оформлению нет. Встречаются RFC, написанные в строгом академическом стиле, иные — в дружеской неформальной манере. Существует традиция выпуска первоапрельских шуточных RFC, например, RFC 1149 рассказывает о передаче пакетов IP с помощью почтовых голубей.

The important thing is: do you have in your C:\Windows\System32\ folder a file called d3dx9_35.dll ? As far as I know, installing DirectX from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35 adds this file to your folder.
If you don't have it, the game won't work, so it's no use allowing to install. Please let me know if it's there.
Thanks for info. It's true, I didn't have d3dx9_35.dll. Thanks to my laziness I only downloaded the file from somewhere, (and checked it with antivirus) not 100 megs of a whole new DirectX. And now the new demo works.
I played the game in ironman mode. I arrived at Taneliz and saved & quit. Then I thought, hey, maybe I should take a screenshot. So I loaded my save, made a screenshot and quit the game. (without saving, duh!) Of course the savegame was deleted. Maybe you should add a messagebox or something BlueSalamander, so that when you quit the game without saving (in ironman mode) you get asked: Are you sure to quit without saving first? etc. Or even better, when you quit the game in ironman mode without having saved first, the game creates a save automatically. Btw what happens if the game crashes? Is your savegame lost as well?
VentilatorOfDoom wrote: Btw what happens if the game crashes? Is your savegame lost as well?
You lose your game. This has happened to me a couple times playing in Ironman mode, due to a bug with loading random encounters on the overland map. I've disabled overland encounters to prevent it from happening, but it's still a major problem with how Ironman is currently implemented.
It might be better to implement it so that you don't delete the old save game until you enter the save menu to save again, rather than deleting it the moment you load a game. Then you could add a feature that automatically saves every time you exit, taking away the possibility of accidentally forgetting.
Of course, then you'd have the same system as the old Gold Box games, which could be circumvented by "accidentally" crashing your computer (or turning it off) in the middle of a losing battle! I can't think of any way for the game to distinguish accidental crashes from intentional crashes, alas.

Good idea. Too bad about your Ironman game.
a bug with loading random encounters on the overland map.
In version 1.27? Anyone else experienced this?
I'm experiencing a bug where my party automatically walks to the furthest bottom left corner they can reach. It went away for a bit after I re-downloaded everything and re-installed it but it's back again. Is anyone else having similar problems and does anyone know how I can fix them?
Hi! The new version is available for download. See http://www.heroicfantasygames.com/Forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=78#p736 for details. Enjoy!
While fixing the bugs I played through the demo once, with Max HP at level ups. I had to reload two times. Once against the wizard Sozarus because I tried the battle without me surprising them, for a challenge; and once against the trolls at the end of the demo.
The battle with the Lich was very interesting... Stenna used the electric sword. I crafted Galaad's weapon into flaming and disrupting. The cleric used the +2 disrupting shillelagh. The wizard crafted a fireball wand for himself. Soon after the start of the battle he cast Stoneskin on self.
The cleric was low on spells as he had forgotten to pick Craft Wand and had to heal everyone after the 1st battle. He ended up dying in the battle with the lich. The others survived with a combination of disruption, fireballs and wall of fire.
Now I'm thinking of playing the full game with all 18 scores, full HP at level up, 2 clerics, a knight and a wizard with a unique purpose - to be able to beat the last battle at the Keep without having to reload 50 times.
I've found another problem with the dialogue of the Thri-Kreen's priest so please don't drink from the Thri-Kreen's pool until another version is released. It messes up the dialogue with the witch in Corinth so that she won't help getting in the orc fort.
Neat, thanks for supporting the game for so long. How's KotC2 coming along?
Also, your patching 2 years+ after release makes me wonder - how is the sales tail for this game?
KotC2 is a huge project and is coming along slowly. Although KotC is still generating some sales, I'm patching it just for the sake of having a game without bugs.
How can I get the update (from 1.27)?

Sven Kirsten was conceived on a freighter of his grandfather's Hamburg-Chicago Line. Following the call of the big world, he moved to California at the age of 25. Kirsten studied at the American Film Institute in Los Angeles and began shooting music videos in the late 1980s for The Cramps, Tom Waits, Sergio Mendes and others.

We live in an uncertain world where there is much to fear about the future. However as followers of God we can face this unpredictability with a strength and confidence unknown by others.
We can do this because we have in Heaven a Father who has not only the power, but also the will to help us. He has promised to work all things together for the good of those who love him, so if we truly rest on His promise we can face our destiny with boldness and resolve.
Our Heavenly Father wants us to bring our worries and fears to him in prayer. He tells us to come just as we are, asking him to help us in our time of need. We can talk to Him anywhere, at any time, with the certainty that the all knowing God will hear the thoughts of our heart.
All that God asks of us is that we trust him. If we pray but do not believe then there was no point in praying at all. However, those who rely on God for all their strength will be delivered in ways we could never imagine.
When we pray we should ask God with a heart which knows that the Creator and Ruler of all things can and will help those who love him and ask for his help.
When God answers our prayers let us not forget that it was his power which delivered us, and not our own. Too often, in times of trouble we call to God and then when we regain our strength and health we forget we ever did so. If we pray we must give to God the glory for any answers which He may have for us.
Prayer is for the most part a very personal thing between you and God. However it is also good to pray with and for others. Jesus has promised that he will be there whenever a few people are gathered together.
If you would like to do this the best way is to go to church where there will be prayer during the meeting, and there will also probably be a special meeting just dedicated to praying.
To end any look at prayer it is always essential to look at how Jesus taught us to pray. His advice is simple and straightforward, but as always it is filled with truth and power.
"When you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.


This suit was brought to recover $3,650, being $3.65 per ton for 1,000 tons of coal furnished the Navy. Appellant claims that it is entitled to the market price at the time of delivery, $6.50 per ton. The United States claims that appellant was bound by contract to furnish it for $2.85 per ton. The Court of Claims made findings of fact, and concluded that appellant was not entitled to recover.
Appellant was notified of the acceptance of its proposal, and on June 5, 1916, a contract was made containing the portions of the bid and specifications above referred to.
March 26, 1917, appellant was informed by the department that the quantity estimated in its contract would be exceeded by ten per cent. Appellant answered that when it had furnished 10,000 tons, it would consider its obligation under the contract discharged, and that it was prepared to furnish the balance. The department cited the provisions of the contract as authority for requiring the additional tonnage, stated that the same requirement was made of other contractors, and expressed the hope that it would not be necessary to resort to extreme measures to accomplish compliance. Later the department informed appellant that the steamer Kennebec had been directed to coal with it, and that the quantity required was 2,180 tons. Appellant answered that the balance due under the contract was 560 tons, which it was ready to supply at any time, and that this amount was all that it was able to furnish. The department insisted that the full cargo assigned to the Kennebec must be furnished. Appellant reiterated its position. June 9, the department advised appellant that failure to supply the tonnage ordered would necessitate immediate purchase in the open market for its account. June 12 appellant replied that it had arranged to supply the Kennebec the full quantity required, and that it was 'doing this under protest, which can be straightened out later.' June 14 appellant wrote that it would agree to supply the 2,180 tons ordered, with the understanding that no further assignments would be made to it; that this was 1,620 tons more than it was obligated to deliver; that this excess would be furnished under protest, reserving the right to take the proper steps to recover the difference between the current market price and the contract price; it asked confirmation f om the department and stated that on receipt thereof it would furnish the coal.
There is nothing in the writing which required the government to take, or limited its demand to, any ascertainable quantity. It must be held that, for lack of consideration and mutuality, the contract was not enforceable. Cold Blast Transportation Co. v. Kansas City Bolt & Nut Co., 114 Fed. 77, 81, 52 C. C. A. 25, 57 L. R. A. 696; Fitzgerald v. First National Bank, 114 Fed. 474, 478, 52 C. C. A. 276; A. Santaella & Co. v. Otto F. Lange Co., 155 Fed. 719, 721 et seq., 84 C. C. A. 145; Golden Cycle Mining Co. v. Rapson Coal Mining Co., 188 Fed. 179, 182, 183, 112 C. C. A. 95.
United States v. Purcell Envelope Co., 249 U. S. 313, 39 Sup. Ct. 300, 63 L. Ed. 620, is not inconsistent with the conclusion that the contract here was not enforceable. There, the making and acceptance of the bid consummated the contract, and it was construed to bind the company to furnish and the department to take the envelopes and wrappers specified which the department would need during the period covered by the contract.
2. While the contract at its inception was not enforceable, it became valid and binding to the extent that it was performed. St. Louis Hay & Grain Co. v. United States, 191 U. S. 159, 163, 24 Sup. Ct. 47, 48 L. Ed. 130; Hartman v. Butterfield Lumber Co., 199 U. S. 335, 338, 26 Sup. Ct. 63, 50 L. Ed. 217; United States v. Andrews, 207 U. S. 229, 243, 28 Sup. Ct. 100, 52 L. Ed. 185.
See Insurance Co. v. Dutcher, 95 U. S. 269, 273, 24 L. Ed. 410; Topliff v. Topliff, 122 U. S. 121, 131, 7 Sup. Ct. 1057, 30 L. Ed. 1110; Old Colony Trust Co. v. Omaba, 230 U. S. 100, 118, 33 Sup. Ct. 967, 57 L. Ed. 1410; Nelson v. Ohio, 188 Fed. 620, 623, 112 C. C. A. 394; Bunday v. Huntington, 224 Fed. 847, 854, 140 C. C. A. 415; Bransford v. Regal Shoe Co., 237 Fed. 67, 69, 150 C. C.

Q: Is it safe to pull the power plug off of the monitors? I have four monitors plugged in through Amazon Smart plug so that I can turn off all the monitors with ease while keeping the Desktop running.
But one of the monitors recently failed. Is it safe to turn off power to the monitors abruptly (like I do with Amazon smart plug)?
Or, do I need to go to the Monitor menu, click on Turn off first? Is it safe to disconnect power abruptly to the monitors? Would it cause damage to the monitor?

A: Low quality switches e.g. on AC power bars may cause glitches that are bad for any electronics.
Generally you are more safe with the power on/off button on the device itself.
Note: A "glitch" is an electrical "jolt".

The above is based on personal experimenting with pulling off and reattaching power lines off/onto "pins" (AMP MOD IV), comparing with a low quality switch and a good switch - while sampling that with a Tek 4000-series oscilloscope.
Why do this? I simply needed to know, to be able to tell. And NO, that was not AC voltages (230V) - but I'd expect to see the same there.
Switches are more complex than you might think, if you would make your own.

Q: ModalPopUp won't hide on button click Using a RadioButtonList to select choices for entering data, one of which is a gridview that is in a AJAX ModalPopUp. When user clicks button in the ModalPopUp the ModalPopUp needs to hide. That does not work at this point although it was at one point. Code appears below. Thinking it is something simple I am overlooking but have reviewed a lot of other posts without success:
RadioButtonList:
<asp:RadioButtonList ID="RadioButtonList1" runat="server" AutoPostBack="True" OnSelectedIndexChanged="RadioButtonList1_SelectedIndexChanged">

}

A: We have had several issues implementing ajax popup. Finally we implemented a solution that doesn't require ajax / javascript / jquery / update panel / css tricks.
This has been working good for us for about a month or so. you might want to have a look:
A modal popup with out using ajax, update panel, jquery or javascript- surprisingly this seems to work
Thanks

You all know about the troubles I have with airport personnel, everything from pushing wheelchairs at me to sky caps who can't speak or understand English. But the experience I had in Philadelphia on my way home from my daughter's was the most terrifying I have ever endured.
Twice, I told the flight attendant that I was able to walk down the steps off the plane, and twice, I told her that I did not need a wheelchair. Hadn't I just walked up the steps to the plane? But there I was, ready to deplane, and there was the guy ready to hook up a ramp, and at the bottom of the steps, there was the sky cap with the wheelchair. This is such an old conflict that it bores even me. In retrospect, I should have taken the wheelchair, although I don't know what I would have done with Dora. Put her in my lap?
After going in and out of elevators and being ushered onto a bus to take me from one end of the airport to another, and after rushing through a crowd of people at the door going back into the airport, I suddenly felt the floor beneath me moving. With horror, I realized that we were on an escalator. Not only did I have no verbal warning, but I was outraged that the sky cap had put my dog in danger. Now I know that many people with guide dogs use escalators, but I do not. When I got my first dog Mindy, my instructor recommended that I never use them, because if the dog's toes or hair on her legs should get caught in the machinery, her legs could be shredded. The image was so ingrained that even though the school changed its policy and insisted that every student learn to use an escalator with the dog, I hated that part of the training and would hyperventilate by the time we stepped off. I learned the technique, which was to put my left hand firmly under the back strap of the harness and lift the dog as we approached the stepping off place. When I trained with Dora, I convinced the trainer to skip that lesson, because every building these days has either a staircase or an elevator, due to the ADA. I would never have to use an escalator. But here I was, frantic and scared to death that my precious baby would be hurt. All the time that I was yelling at that sky cap, she kept saying, "You're OK," but I wasn't afraid of the escalator. I use them all the time, but never with my dog, and I always insist on finding the railing with my right hand before stepping on.
Realizing that I had to handle this awful situation, I put both arms around her middle, stuck out my right foot, and when I felt the end of the steps disappearing into the floor, I lifted that 77-pound dog to safety.
Instead of being joyous at my success in saving her legs, I gave that sky cap a dressing down she had never heard before. I hope she understood and had nightmares that night. I explained to her that first, she should have asked me if I could do escalators. I had been asked if I could do stairs over and over but never asked if I could do the escalator. Secondly, she gave me no warning that we were about to step onto the moving surface. She claimed she had been told to take me on the escalator, but she failed to say that to me. Clearly, this young woman had not received proper training in assisting a blind passenger. It's the same old story, but with a dangerous twist. I was shaking with fury and wanted to cry. But I didn't have time to cry. I had to make my connection. No wonder when I got to Columbus, the first thing I wanted to do was go have a stiff drink. I wanted to write a letter, but to whom? I don't know, and it wouldn't do any good. But it makes me feel better writing to you.
You put up with a lot but that was one of the worst: incredibly insensitive. Is there some way you can command Dora to Bite?
escalator, because he was being silly. He started screaming. Fortunately, personnel at the old Lazarus downtown shut it down immediately. He was near the bottom with probably his mother. I was at the very top. I took the elevator.
Sorry to hear about that horrible experience. You could write to the Philly airport administration, but that would only educate one group of skycaps. And we know how our advocacy gets forgotten by the next administration.


In a garden, a man and his lady visitor are laughing at the maid's clumsiness, much to her dismay. The next morning, the maid takes revenge: she does not get up on time, waiting awake in bed and pretending she overslept. Then, she makes her master grind the coffee while she reads a book in the kitchen. Finally, the maid almost strangles him as she helps the man get dressed.

We need competition between Britain's cities to get the economy growing again. Here's how…
Matt Smith: After two wasted decades, it is for the Conservatives to deliver the "devolution dividend" to Wales
Andy Street: Levelling up for the Midlands and North. Javid must tear up the Treasury rules to make sure it happens.
As 2020 begins, we look back on ten years in which Tories first led the movement for austerity…and then against it
We are due to have fewer MPs. The number of councillors should also be cut.
Adam Lent: The Tories have shown that they can take back control. Now is the time to hand it over.
By Matthew Barrett

The Government's localism agenda so far has made positive, but limited progress. Directly-elected Police Commissioners are a good example of conservative reformism – handing the power over local policing to local people. But policing should be just one power handed back to local government. More powers, including powers of taxation and welfare spending, should be devolved to the largest British cities to help re-balance our economy and regenerate the regions outside the South East.
When our economy does well, our cities do well. This would seem to be an obvious statement, but it's not quite true. In reality, London and, to a lesser extent, Edinburgh, thrived over the last few years – because of the large financial services sectors in those two cities. But our reliance on London undermines our versatility as a global power.
Germany is a country we could learn a lot from in recognising the benefits of having a number of important cities, not just a very big capital city. Frankfurt is the biggest financial centre on the continent – despite being only Germany's fifth-largest city. Berlin, Germany's biggest city, is its centre of government, arts and culture. Hamburg is one of the busiest ports in the world. Munich is one of the wealthiest cities in Europe, with businesses like BMW and Siemens headquartered there. Stuttgart is well-known for its high-tech industry base with companies like Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Daimler, Porsche, and Bosch based there. There are a good number of other cities in Germany with specialised skills and industries. The same points can be made about the United States, where cities like New York, Washington, Los Angeles, and Chicago (and many more) can compete on a global scale and specialise in various industries.
With London as our centre of financial, business, cultural, creative and government activities, we allow ourselves to be disproportionately influenced by the needs and concerns of only one part of the country and economy. It would be healthier, and allow our economy to be much more robust, if we were able to fall back on industries and sectors in other parts of the country. If Britain was less reliant on the City, our economy might have bounced back more quickly than it is doing – as Germany's economy did.
The question is, how do we encourage cities to incentivise business investment? The first step is taxation. The Government should allow significant tax and spending autonomy, with the aim of allowing any business based in a regional city to see its tax burden fall – corporation taxes and employers' NI contributions could be halved or significantly reduced – as Northern Ireland Secretary Owen Paterson has recommended for Ulster. If cities wish to attract certain sectors of the economy, spending autonomy would allow them to award specialist grants and tax breaks. For example, Manchester is a leader in British science and engineering – so research and development grants could be awarded to maintain and expand this sector of the Manchester economy.
The second step is to reduce central government regulation in areas like planning and the environment. For example, in parts of the country where industry still exists – such as in the North East – energy regulations are killing businesses and forcing them to move overseas. These green regulations, which amount to the unilateral de-industrialisation of Britain, should be scrapped immediately.
The third, and perhaps most radical step is to devolve welfare spending policy to cities. This would force cities to work their hardest to attract business, in order to balance the books. It would encourage cities to get as many people off state benefits and into private employment as possible. It would introduce realism into the welfare debate, as even Labour-controlled cities would be forced to reduce the welfare bill or be left behind.
A crucial final step in delivering economic growth is the introduction of directly-elected mayors for every city in the United Kingdom with a population above 300,000. Mayors could tailor tax policy in their city by listening to the needs of business – something local bureaucrats have shown themselves not to be best suited to doing. Levels of taxation and pro-business policies in each city would be democratically endorsed with the election of a mayor, and ensure the changes outlined above are properly delivered by an accountable individual, and seen to be properly delivered, rather than relying on faceless schemes like the Regional Development Fund or Local Enterprise Partnerships to create any meaningful change.
Conservatives know the benefits of handing power back to the lowest sensible level. Elected mayors would understand the needs of the people they represent much better than a Whitehall mandarin or Westminster politician. They would know where public spending is best directed, how taxes would help incentivise the private sector in their city, and at what level welfare spending should be set.
Mayors should be encouraged to compete with each other – a race to the top to see which mayor (and indeed political party) could run the best city in terms of wages, businesses based in the city, and quality of life, would help increase standards across Britain. Competition between cities would also help establish which welfare and tax policies work, and which don't, allowing central government to learn from the most effective civic leaders (An added benefit: we could see the next generation of national leaders starting their careers in local governance – as statesmen like Joseph Chamberlain once did). Competition between cities would pressure local government leaders to stick to common sense policies; it seems unlikely that any mayor hoping to be re-elected would choose to invest in community empowerment officers when they could spend their citizens' money on something more useful.
There are clear political benefits to encouraging a better geographical distribution of our economy. One of the big problems for the Conservative Party is its current inability to compete in the cities outside the South. The only big cities we have any MPs in are Bristol and Cardiff. We have a handful of MPs in the outer suburbs and surrounding towns of Leeds, Bradford, Birmingham and Greater Manchester. This is plainly unhealthy if our aim is to represent the whole country. Earlier this month, Tim Montgomerie recommended selecting more Northern candidates as a step towards building a Conservative majority. It would also help if cities like Manchester, Liverpool and Nottingham had more of the kind of ABC1 voters who tend to vote Conservative – and those voters would exist in cities outside the South if there was a good economic incentive for them, or their businesses, to move or set up there.
Attracting people to the cities outside London would bring numerous social benefits. For Londoners, a less congested city, and an a reduction in the seemingly unrelenting increase in users of London's public services. For those outside the capital, the migration of better-paid workers to other British cities would encourage more of the kind of urban regeneration seen in areas of Greater Manchester, Birmingham and Glasgow. This would also raise standards for existing citizens. As well as drawing people away from London who are already there, better living standards and job prospects in other cities could end the unfortunate situation where people from across the country resign themselves to having to move to and work in London if they want to get a well-paid job. If jobs were better distributed, people from Stafford could aspire to work in a good job in Birmingham or Nottingham. People from Scunthorpe could aspire to work in Leeds, Sheffield or Hull, and so on. London would cease to be the all-important British city.
It might be feared that some regions of the country like the North East, or Wales, would find it a challenge to adapt to a new, pro-business atmosphere, but it should be remembered that Germany has managed to perform well during the recession – and before – despite the huge burden of having to bring East Germany's living standards in line with the rest of the economy. If West Germany can cope with East Germany's problems, even if gradually, surely the South of England and those British cities already equipped to become business-friendly could drag the under-developed regions of the country into economic stability?
Of course, there would be some upheaval caused by turning British cities into centres of enterprise – but the economy needs a radical shock to start growing again, and low-tax, business-friendly cities with an active workforce could re-awaken British business and encourage more investment in areas outside London. The plan also means a structure would develop that should make us more adaptable to changing economic conditions, by keeping the machinery of government, both local and national, lean and efficient.

This is the latest installment of our weekly series, The Language of the Blues, in which author/rocker Debra Devi explores the meaning of a word or phrase found in the blues.
Grab a signed copy of Devi's award-winning blues glossary The Language of the Blues: From Alcorub to ZuZu (Foreword by Dr. John) at Bluescentric.com. Also available as an eBook from Amazon Kindle.
When a woman is in a marriage or committed relationship with a good man, but she keeps fooling around with someone else, that someone else is called her monkey man.
Country blues singer Charley Lincoln (also known as Laughing Charley and Charley Hicks) made his feelings about this situation clear in "Hard Luck Blues":
Two kind of people in this world, mama, that I can't stand
That's a two-faced woman, baby, and a monkey-man
Then there's the haunting, driving Rolling Stones song "Monkey Man," which has been covered by Phish and Gov't Mule. Jagger sings that he's looking for a "lemon squeezer" and adds:
Well, I am just a monkey man
I'm glad you are a monkey woman, too
Some critics have said the Stones song is about drug addicts, but given what blues fanatics the Stones were, I'll bet they knew what a monkey man really was. What do you think?

Good Neighbor Fund improves job training programs
Daily file photo by Noah Frick-Alofs
Evanston Mayor Steve Hagerty at a meeting. Hagerty and Northwestern President Morton Schapiro allocated $225,000 of the Good Neighbor Fund to job training programs in Evanston.
Sophia Scanlan, Reporter
A portion of the 2019 Good Neighbor Fund — Northwestern University's commitment to donate $1 million to Evanston every year from 2015 to 2020 — will go toward strengthening existing and new job training programs in the city.
University President Morton Schapiro and Evanston Mayor Steve Hagerty decided to allocate $225,000 to two different Evanston organizations. The city's Parks, Recreation and Community Services department received $135,000, and Elevate Evanston — the mayor's workforce development initiative launched in 2018 to connect community members to potential employers — received $90,000.
"One of the consistent issues out there is the need to put people to work in good jobs and in good careers," Hagerty said. "Northwestern University recognizes that, and the city of Evanston recognizes that."
Elevate Evanston works in collaboration with many different nonprofits in the city. The initiative decided to give its funding to the city's Youth Job Center, which provides job training to Evanston young adults.
The donation will allow for a new full-time staff member at the Youth Job Center, Hagerty said. The staff member will be housed at Evanston Township High School and create a stronger connection between city employers and young adults.
Hagerty said around 20 percent of students who graduate from ETHS do not go to college, and of those who begin attending college, an even larger percentage do not finish.
"If someone goes off to college and either can't afford it or college isn't right for them, and they come back to Evanston, we don't want them floundering," he said. "We want to help them. This is an effort to do that by having a full-time position."
Karen Tollenaar Demorest, the executive director of the Youth Job Center, said the "well-intended effort" to get young adults through college has left some on the sidelines.
She said she envisions this new staff member to be a "bridge builder" between those young adults and employers in the community.
"The person will be working with employers to help identify those opportunities that young people can move into, (where they) can also continue to advance," she said. "We want these young people to have options that will lead them to a good career at a living wage."
The Youth Job Center is currently accepting applications for the staff position and plans to hold interviews later this month so that the new member can begin working as soon as possible, Tollenaar Demorest added.
The Parks, Recreation and Community Services department will use the money from the Good Neighbor Fund for its existing career training programs, facilitated by the department's outreach team, according to a news release from the city.
The remaining $775,000 of the University's annual donation supports the Evanston Fire Department's paramedic services, funds a new after-school tutoring program and strengthens Evanston Public Library's portable Wi-Fi Hotspot Program, as well as other initiatives.
Schapiro and Hagerty have not yet discussed extending the fund past 2020, but when they meet to determine the allocation of money for next year, Hagerty said they will evaluate the successes of the fund and determine how to proceed.
Patrick Deignan, the city's interim community engagement manager, said he appreciates the University's annual "commitment to the community" through this fund.
"Northwestern is a great neighbor for the city," Deignan said."We certainly look forward to continuing that great partnership."

Come On In, The Water's Lovely… – Writing … or Just Practicing?
A great many years ago, when I was fresh out of school and learning to be a salesman, we had a sales manager who proudly advertised that his office door was "always open". What he meant, obviously, was that we could drop in any time with questions, problems, and for advice on any sales-related issue that might arise. Forgotten what step five of "the seven steps to making a sale" is? Having problems framing your "double-positive questions"? Struggling to find "a response to overcome an objection"? Just sail in through that ever-open door and fire away. Except that the only response you ever got from him was "...you can always rely on one end of a swimming pool".
Now, I was young and a bit damp behind the ears in those days - and probably not the sharpest knife in the box. So it was several months before I finally plucked up the courage to ask one of the older and more experienced members of our team what he actually meant. "Simple", said my wise colleague, "he means that you can always depend on a 'depend' (i.e. deep end). In other words, no matter what the question or situation, you can usually get the upper hand by prevaricating".
All I need do now is overcome the objection, and toss in a double-positive question: "I'm sure that the quality and the results you'll get will be far more important to you than the exceptionally low price we're offering it at this week", and "Shall I wrap it up for you to take away, or would you like us to deliver it tomorrow morning?" Amazing - seems I haven't lost the touch.
So, having regaled you with rambling reminiscences for the last ten minutes, I probably need to try and drift back on-topic. Or, at least, to within striking distance. What prompted all this was reading the preface to our new Microsoft Application Architecture Guide 2nd Edition. In it, David Hill explains that you can always tell an architect because their answer to any question is invariably "it depends". He doesn't say if this behavior extends to things like "Can I get you a coffee?" or "Would you like a salary raise?", but I'll assume he is generally referring to architectural design topics.
And, even though I'm not an architect (INAA?), I can see what he means. In the section on validation, for example, it quite clearly states that you should always validate input received from users. Makes a lot of sense. But what about if you have a layered application and you want to pass the data back from the presentation layer to the business layer or data layer? Should you validate it at the layer boundary? Well, it depends on whether you trust the presentation layer. You do? Well it also depends on whether any other applications will reuse the business layer. Ever. And it depends if you have a domain model, and if the entities contain their own validation code. And then it starts to talk about how you do the validation, depending on what you are validating and the rules you want to apply.
You see, I thought at the start of this project that I could just learn the contents of the guide and instantly become "a proper architect". It's not likely to happen. What it does show is that, yes, you need to know the process, the important factors, and techniques that will help you to perform analysis and make good decisions about structure and design. And you need to understand about conflicting requirements, quality attributes, and crosscutting concerns. You have to understand the types of applications, and their individual advantages and liabilities. In fact, there is an almost endless stream of things that you could learn to help you "do architecture".
And that, it seems, is where the guide really comes into its own. It explains the process and the important elements of design. It lists the vital requirements, and provides guidelines to help you make decisions. It tells you what to look for, where to look, and where to find out more. It even contains detailed references to things like components, layers, tiers, technologies, and design patterns (see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/dd673617.aspx).


Val Bonney and several of Bonnie's Trainers attend seminars all over the world. A one month stint with Police-in-Service Dogs in West Virginia, United States, saw the attendees increasing their knowledge of Bomb Detection, Drug Seeking, Tracking, Bite Work and even Basic Obedience. Val and two of her trainers also spent time in Honolulu with 93 other Trainers from all over the world.
Bonnie's Trainers are very gifted people, extremely dedicated to understanding dog behaviour. Working with the dogs of thousands over the many years Bonnie's has been operating has enabled us to build an immense knowledge base.
Dog Training is really a 'People Training Industry', and all Trainers at Bonnie's are keenly aware of this. United under Val's direction for many years, they love the work they do - it definitely shows.
We believe we are never too old to learn, and learn we do, from many sources.
Many seminars given by gifted people from around the world are attended by Val and Bonnie's trainers. Any piece of new information attained is a gem, no matter how small, and many gems soon fill a treasure chest - this is the attitude of those who work at Bonnie's, ensuring Bonnie's works for you.
In 2003 Val headed to the U.K. for Crufts (the largest dog show in the world). Val gave lectures and promoted her book 'Who's the Boss?'.
In the past several years literally thousand of students from Japan Colleges have been trained through Bonnie's on the finer aspects of Dog Training, while visiting Queensland for their Overseas experience. This training is organised through the Queensland University T.E.S.O.L. program.
Val attends Japan every year and works with and Judges Dogs from Matsuyama and Imabari Training School, which has a membership of about 1500. Val is the mentor for their Trainers and has been for some 15 years.
Each year since August 2008, Bonnies has had the priveledge of having a Japanese trainer come to stay with us for a week to learn more about dogs, and to take back to Japan with her as much knowledge as we can give her.

Final Fantasy 7 Remake Xbox One launch rumors squashed by Square Enix
By Connor Sheridan 11 July 2019
Final Fantasy 7 Remake has "no plans" for Xbox One at launch, but there's still wiggle room
(Image credit: Square Enix)
The Final Fantasy 7 Remake has been confirmed as a PS4 exclusive after a social media slip-up suggested it was also coming to Xbox One. The Xbox Germany Facebook account briefly posted a video that said the remake would hit Xbox One on March 3, 2020, the same as its announced release date on PS4, and questions remained about whether the Xbox account had slipped on a planned announcement or if it had mistakenly made up the whole thing. A statement given to IGN by Square Enix indicates it's the latter.
"As previously announced, Final Fantasy 7 Remake will be released for the PlayStation 4 on March 3, 2020," the Square Enix representative said. "We have no plans for other platforms."
The FF7 Remake has only ever been advertised as a PS4 game from when it was announced in 2015 all the way up to its re-reveal at E3 2019, which made the Xbox Germany video all the more surprising. Square Enix's statement makes it sound like it was simply a mistake from an employee who didn't know any better. And it would be an easy enough mistake to make, since both Final Fantasy 13 and 15 came to Xbox. You can even buy and play Final Fantasy 7 (a lightly updated version of the original) on Xbox One right now.
Though Square's "we have no plans for other platforms" statement sounds pretty final, you could interpret it as referring specifically to the March 3 release date; the Final Fantasy 7 Remake may end up being a timed exclusive on PS4 rather than a permanent exclusive. That being said, the remake's new episodic release structure could make timed exclusivity a bigger consideration for players than usual if it would apply to future episodes as well.

Vasectomy Reversal Surgery with Dr. Bastuba, M.D., F.A.C.S.
It is not uncommon to have a renewed desire for children whether you would like to expand your family or have recently remarried. A vasectomy reversal is a surgical procedure used to restore sperm to the ejaculate after a vasectomy. Getting a vasectomy reversal is not only more affordable than most infertility treatments, but also has high success rates and low recovery time. When choosing a vasectomy reversal surgeon it is important to find someone that specializes in these procedures because the first chance is the best chance for restoring fertility. Many urologists say they perform vasectomy reversals, but in reality only have several cases a year. It is in your best interest to find a urologist that performs vasectomy reversals regularly and is up-to-date on the latest techniques.
A vasectomy reversal is an outpatient procedure that takes only 2-3 hours to perform. While there have been many cases where the sperm returns to the ejaculate within 2 months, in some cases it can take up to 12 months. Therefore, if you would like to have children in the near future we recommend scheduling a vasectomy reversal consultation as soon as possible.
Dr. Bastuba, M.D., F.A.C.S. of Male Fertility and Sexual Medicine Specialists is a nationally renowned vasectomy reversal specialist, having performed over 5,000 microsurgeries throughout his career. Most urologists perform only 2-3 vasectomy reversals a year, while Dr. Bastuba performs 2-3 vasectomy reversals in just one week! Learn more about the vasectomy reversal surgery and Dr. Bastuba.


A Cockapoo is a wonderful crossbreed that comes from breeding a Cocker Spaniel and a Poodle, or two Cockapoos. While the Cockapoo is also called the Spoodle they are generally bred with different types of Cocker Spaniels. The Cockapoo is most often the result of the cross between the American Cocker Spaniel while the Spoodle is most often the offspring of the English Cocker Spaniel. Taking the best traits of the Cocker Spaniel – loving and outgoing personality and mixing it with the best traits of the Poodle – low shedding and intelligent, the Cockapoo has become a popular pet.
Cockapoos vary greatly in size because they can be bred with two different types of Cocker Spaniels (the American and the English) and a number of sizes of Poodles. What you get may be a very small Cockapoo, from the smallest poodle in the poodle's recent pedigree, to the largest cocker in the cocker's recent pedigree, to potentially a little larger due to hybrid vigor. For the most accurate information, it is best to look at the parents of each individual dog, as Cockapoos will often always show strong characteristics of both parents.
Cockapoos are generally a sturdy, well-balanced breed, which they get from their Cocker Spaniel genes. They are compact with a square appearance and a healthy back structure. They usually have large, round brown eyes that give off an endearing and intelligent look.
Their hair is often wavy which comes from a mix of the two very different hair types of their parent breeds. The Poodle normally has tight curls and most Cocker Spaniels hair is straight. The Cockapoos hair color varies greatly in color. They may be tan, beige, buff, black, red, brown, sable, cream, white, silver, brindle or phantom. They may be solid in color or have white patches, or ticking as well as a merle coat.
Unlike most crossbred dogs, whose history only dates back a decade or so, the Cockapoo is one of the first of the "designer dogs," dating back to the 1960s. While the first cross may have been accidental, these puppies were well received, and the Cockapoo line began. The Cockapoos popularity steadily increased when people saw how gentle and loving the breed could be.
While some people are content with the basic cross between Cocker Spaniel and Poodle, others have made great efforts to establish a breed standard to make the Cockapoo a true breed. The Cockapoo Club of America, formed in 1999, created a breed standard of their own. Today this club promotes breeding multigenerational Cockapoos to each other instead of creating new first generation dogs. The North American Cockapoo Registry's mission is also to establish the Cockapoo as a true breed. This group, which formed in 1999, provides certification for Cockapoos who are the results of first- through sixth-generation pairings. This registration provides a traceable background, which in turn provides the information needed to define a Cockapoo as being a breed of its own.
The Cockapoo's disposition has been described as sweet, intelligent, affectionate and loyal. The Cocker Spaniel is said to have contributed his easy going, patient and loving personality while the Poodle has contributed his smarts and activeness. The Cockapoo is known to accept nearly everyone from kids, to the elderly, and other pets. He can be both very active and able to romp with larger dogs, yet he is small and affectionate enough to cuddle up in your lap.
The Cockapoo, thanks to his Poodle genes, produces very little pet dander and therefore is a good dog for allergy sufferers. Fortunately, for the Cockapoo owner, this dog does not require the extreme level of grooming that most Poodles do. Like many floppy-eared dog breeds, Cockapoos are prone to ear infections, so keep their ears clean and dry. This is best achieved by gently wiping out their ears with a cotton ball. If your Cockapoo's ears smells bad, looks red or seems tender, or she frequently shakes her head, this is a sign of an ear problem.
The Cockapoo only needs an occasional bath but needs to be brushed daily. Although their coats can be left unclipped, many owners like to keep their fur trimmed shorter. This is especially true on their face, as longer, unclipped fur can block their visibility. Your Cockapoo's teeth need to be brushed weekly and their nails need to be trimmed periodically.
Most Cockapoos have a moderate amount of energy and enjoy a short to medium walk daily. A good romp in the backyard can also accommodate their physical needs.
When you cross two breeds that are noted for longevity, you get a breed with a long life expectancy. Cockapoos average life expectancy is around 15 years but some may live to be more than 18 years old.
Cockapoos tend to be a healthy but they are prone to some common health issues. Both Poodles and Cocker Spaniels have known to suffer from luxating patellas and progressive retinal atrophy. Your Cockapoo may also develop problems with cataracts, hip dysplasia, allergies, liver disease, heart disease and ear infections.
Cockapoo owners are a proud group and consider themselves fortunate to have such a loving and affectionate pet. The Cockapoo is an adaptable dog, able to live in many different environments including apartments and in cities. They are very social dogs and require lots of time with their families. The Cockapoo does well with children, and can be unusually forgiving with small ones. She also does well with other dog and cat siblings and may even do well with smaller furry animals.
While they do not require extreme amounts of exercise, a Cockapoo owner must be willing to take their dog on a short daily walk. Expect to give her at least 15 minutes per day and offer a variety of activities, such as games of fetch, and walks. Training your Cockapoo with positive reinforcement should be a breeze, their intelligence and eagerness to please is strong.
Please advise if you have any cockapoo puppies available (female). Please advise age, colour and price and of course your area we are in Perth Western Australia.
I am really interested in buying a dog, the Cockapoo's look like they would suit my lifestyle. I would like a mature or pup to come into my life.


Lemon Balm also known as (Melissa officinalis), is a member of the mint family. It has a distinct lemony scent. This plant grows best in the full sun, but, will tolerate and thrive in moderate shade.
It grows well in a pot in the home. This is great for those of us that want to benefit from all its medicinal properties. If gardening is not you thing we recommend you purchase lemon balm and all of you herbs at Mountain Rose Herbs.
The plant has small light yellow or white flower clusters that bloom in spring through late summer. These flowers are very fragrant and have nectar that attracts bees. Melissa means "honey bee" in Greek. This plant is also known as bee balm, Melissa, honey plant, sweet balm or English balm.
This herb is used by many in their arsenal of herbal tea remedies. Drinking lemon balm tea and utilizing the oils of the leaves, this perennial herb was used long before the Middle Ages. Citronella candles used to ward off mosquitoes use the oil of this plant. I found that interesting.
This herb is known for its calming effects it has on the body and spirit. For those that have enjoyed a warm cup of this tea, you not only enjoy the sweet lemony taste, you experience the scent of lemons and the calming of your nerves.
The tannins and the polyphenols in this plant attribute to its strong anti viral properties and have been found to combats the herpes simplex virus. When applied to cold sores it has been show to cut the healing time in half.
In the Scientific journal, Endocrinology, is has been noted that lemon balm may be an effective treatment for hyperthyroidism. It is important to be aware that if you are an individual that takes a medication for low thyroid, you should avoid consuming lemon bam. It inhibits the absorption of thyroid medication.
Many mix this herb with other medicinal herbs for a great stress reducing tea. Try making a blend of chamomile and valerian for a stress buster tea.
Make Lemon tea and enjoy the health benefits, as well as the fragrance to have your spirits lifted. It's easy.
To make this tasty herbal tea from your garden, take the leaves from your plant and place in a dark and dry area to allow them to dry for 24 hours. Longer is OK. Drying the leaves is an important part of this recipe.
The leaves will smell like lemon and lift your spirits, even before your first cup of tea.
Bring you water to a rolling boil and place the dried leaves into the water. Allow to boil for 5 to 20 minutes depending on your taste. Strain into your cup and enjoy.
For iced lemon tea, make a little stronger and pour over ice. Sweeten to taste. Garnish with leaves of the plant or mint from your garden.
You will enjoy this tea both hot or iced.
It also works well as an addition to fruit salads. I have also added it to baked fish for a delicate lemony flavored taste. You will find my recipe here.
Pre-heat oven 350 and grease loaf pan.
Cream together until light and fluffy the vegetable oil, sugar eggs and lemon extract.
Add the dry ingredients and the lemon peel, stir only until blended.
Add the lemon tea , lemon juice and the chopped fresh lemon balm.
Spread this mixture into your greased baking pan.
Bake in a 350 oven for about 50 minutes, remove from oven. Mix ¼ cup of lemon balm tea with ¼ cup of sugar and spread over the top of the lemon balm tea bread while it is still hot.
Allow to cool in pan. Remove from pan and cool well before slicing.
Present this Lemon Balm Tea Cake to your friends at you next tea party get together.

The smell of your breath is the science behind a new device that will determine if you're too stoned to be behind the wheel.
UBC Okanagan engineering professor Mina Hoorfar has developed a handheld device, known as a microfluidic breath analyzer that can detect the presence of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in a person's breath. THC is the psychoactive ingredient in cannabis.
THC also stays in the blood and in saliva. However, roadside testing involving blood analysis or spit tests is not an easy process, and results are not immediate. With Hoorfar's device—about the size of two fingers together—a law enforcement officer can determine within seconds whether a person is impaired.
UBC Professor Mina Hoorfar and PhD candidate Mohammad Paknahad assemble the microfluidic breath analyzer.
The device costs about $15 to manufacture and is Bluetooth-enabled so data can be collected using a cellphone.
The microfluidic breath analyzer, made with a 3D printer at the UBC's campus in Kelowna, British Columbia, uses a single gas sensor along with a micrometer deep channel (not even as thick as a strand of hair). The highly-sensitive semiconductor gas sensor is inside the microchannel—and diffused exhaled breath is recorded and analyzed as it flows through this channel. The "smellprint" of the exhaled breath is then provided by the device showing how much marijuana has been consumed.
Hoorfar says with the decriminalization of cannabis on the federal government's radar, and several American states legalizing the substance, it's only a matter of time before driving while stoned becomes an enforcement matter. Police in Colorado and Washington states use an oral swab to test saliva, or can order a blood test. But even in those states, there is no legal definition of the amount of THC that can determine if a person is too impaired to drive.
Hoorfar is the head of the Advanced Thermo-Fluidic Laboratory (AFTL) where she and PhD student Mohammad Paknahad developed the microfluidic breath analyzer. The lab is an interdisciplinary research facility where professors, post-grad students, and researchers work with biochips and digital microfluidics.
Using technology in the lab, Hoorfar and Paknahad realized their device can also register odours other than THC. It is currently being tested for ketones, meaning diabetics may eventually be able to take a breath test instead of a finger prick blood test to monitor their glucose levels. The device is also being tested above gas lines, via a drone, to determine its capability of detecting a gas leak.


The other thing that happened in 1883 was my reading of Thoreau's Walden.
As they marched, the crowds lining the route broke into applause, a sweet and deeply felt spontaneous pattering that was a sort of communal embrace. Welcome home.
If there is a look of human eyes that tells of perpetual loneliness, so there is also the familiar look that is the sign of perpetual crowds.
We know that Europe loves President Obama. He had adoring crowds. The press loves Obama. The question is how will this date end? Okay? The question is, to what end? Why do they love President Obama? They love his personal story, they love his wife. North Korea, China and Russia don't really care about Michelle's arms and, you know, whether they gave an iPod to the Queen, okay?
In 1982 when I showed up, the average age of the drivers in the series was something like 40, 41. The crowds were small. There was not much prize money. The competition wasn't very tight.
With the crowds on your side, it's easier to play up to your potential.
