Deputy Minority Leader of the eight Senate, Dinstinguished Senator Emmanuel Bwacha, Taraba South, has many parts fused in one form. He is the ultimate full package. A man of deep inner peace, Bwacha paradoxically is also a professor in the art of war. A thoroughly friendly personality, you underestimate him at your perils. An easy going fellow, his razor sharp mind works like that of a super detective with a keen eye for all the details. The military startegist, Sun Tsu, was probably thinking of the University of Jos graduate of law when he wrote his signature book. For bulldozer (as his constituents happily call him) is a bundle of war stories- open and covert battles he fought and won gloriously in the course of his brilliant political voyage spanning two decades and more years.
In the passage of time, Senator Bwacha has seen it all: intrigues, power games, betrayals, unalloyed loyalties, dangers, the midnights accords, meetings with foes and friends; he practically wrote the handbook of political manuovers and the deals that comes with power brokerage.
But in all, it is enduring faith in God that has seen him through the battles of life. That a certain super human ability to calculate propeely. Sen Bwacha wasn't always a dedicated Christian that he is today. He was the rambunctious "Emma" in those days when his afro hair and exposed hairy chest made him the ladies man of Mararaba in modern day Donga local government- his place of birth and consciousness. He went to school in Takum. An old school picture showed he went to school late as he was the "big boy" of the class. He was a brilliant student but couldn't resist the pull to explore the social sectors of life. "Yet, something was asking me to serve God and humanity in those heady days", he once told this writer. He quit smoking even before he met the Lord. "I just got to one spot on the road and threw away the packet I was holding. Many years ago and never lighted anything since, " he tells me. Before his service to God became his main occupation, it was politics that first took center stage. His political encounters are stuff for a full blown publication: an epic tale that saw him move from a chairmanship aspirant of Donga to the Taraba State House of Assembly and now the National Assembly where he's principal officer.
And nothing came cheaply. It has been a roller coaster ride of battles against powerful opponents. As a warrior, Mr. Bwacha doesn't fight selfish wars. He fights for justice and what's right. Like when he insisted that Taraba's deputy governor, Alhaji Garba Umar was wrong in trying to truncate the political project of his, at the time, ailing boss, late Governor Danbaba Suntai. At the height of the Umar ascendancy, a fearless Bwacha looked at him and declared he has to allow power shift to the southern part of the state. Umar"s plot was to retain power in the North with him as sole beneficiary. Nothing was going to stop him it seemed until Bwacha raised his hands and flagged him down literally. My book: "Suntai: Betrayers, Loyalists and the media war", covered the thriller of Bwacha in that episode.
At the National Assembly, Bwacha started off in the House of Representatives and moved up to the Senate. Shaterring the glass ceiling and getting a second term, many believed it's over for him but he's on his way to the 9th Assembly having just won his primaries at Wukari last Tuesday. It was another moment of glory. I was with him in the morning of the historic day. Stepping out of his rooms with a bounce, it was clear to me Senator Bwacha has it all locked down already. I rose to greet him and said "let's go and conquer", to which he smiled and let out a chuckle. His inscrutable face betrayed nothing- a man who doesn't let out anything he must keep inside. On the field itself, it was vintage Bwacha, calm, cool and collected as the votes poured in. It was a wallopping of his challengers who were taken to class by the grandmaster himself.
The path to the 9th Senate is clear now and the warrior is trudging a familiar road again. There are talks of the Senate Presidency. I have no doubts: for Senator Bwacha is today a man combining divine assistance with human abilities in a deadly collabo that could achieve anything.

Q: html multiple select statements not working I have a form for adding events to each of my database tables.
In order for the data and time to be right I am using dropdown menus. However I am using 5 2 for the time and 3 for the date. In dream weaver on the second select statement it is highlighting it in yellow like I have an error. http://pastebin.com/NJB84hed
I would like to make sure this is also saving the id so that, the id can be posted in that table
$results=mysqli_query($con, "select * from Users where `userName` ='$username'");
    $id = 'id_cust';

A: (1) You are missing a closing bracket } for your if(isset($_POST['insert'])){
if(isset($_POST['insert'])){
$artist = $_POST['artist'];
$place = $_POST['place'];
$hour = $_POST['hour'];
$minute = $_POST['min'];
$year = $_POST['year'];
$month = $_POST['month'];
$day = $_POST['day'];
$price = $_POST['price'];
$open = $_POST['open'];
$time = $hour.':'.$minute;
$date = $year.'-'.$month.'-'.$day;
$result=mysqli_query($con,"insert into Concert values('$id','$artist','$date','$time','$place','$price','$open')");
                if($result)
                {
                echo 'Values updated successfully';
                }
?>

Should be
if(isset($_POST['insert'])){
$artist = $_POST['artist'];
$place = $_POST['place'];
$hour = $_POST['hour'];
$minute = $_POST['min'];
$year = $_POST['year'];
$month = $_POST['month'];
$day = $_POST['day'];
$price = $_POST['price'];
$open = $_POST['open'];
$time = $hour.':'.$minute;
$date = $year.'-'.$month.'-'.$day;
$result=mysqli_query($con,"insert into Concert values('$id','$artist','$date','$time','$place','$price','$open')");
                if($result)
                {
                echo 'Values updated successfully';
                }
} // MISSING THIS CLOSING BRACKET
?>

(2) On line 73 you misspelled your select closing tag
</selct>

should be
</select>

(3) Also, I assume
$results=mysqli_query($con, "select * from Users where `userName` ='$username'");
$id = 'id_cust';

should be something like
$results=mysqli_query($con, "select * from Users where `userName` ='$username'");
$row = mysqli_fetch_array($result);
$id = $row['id_cust'];

Machine learning goes mainstream
September 24, 2018 / Matt Hall
At our first machine-learning-themed hackathon, in New Orleans in 2015, we had fifteen hackers. TImes were hard in the industry. Few were willing or able to compe out and play. Well, it's now clear that times have changed! After two epic ML hacks last year (in Paris and Houston), at which we hosted about 115 scientists, it's clear this year is continuing the trend. Indeed, by the end of 2018 we expect to have welcomed at least 240 more digital scientists to hackathons in the US and Europe.
Conclusion: something remarkable is happening in our field.
The FORCE hackathon
Last Tuesday and Wednesday, Agile co-organized the FORCE Machine Learning Hackathon in Stavanger, Norway. FORCE is a cross-industry geoscience organization, coordinating meetings and research in subsurface. The event preceeded a 1-day symposium on the same theme: machine learning in geoscience. And it was spectacular.
Get a flavour of the spectacularness in Alessandro Amato's beautiful photographs:
Fifty geoscientists and engineers spent two days at the Norwegian Petroleum Directorate (NPD) in Stavanger. Our hosts were welcoming, accommodating, and generous with the waffles. As usual, we gently nudged the participants into teams, and encouraged them to define projects and find data to work on. It always amazes me how smoothly this potentially daunting task goes; I think this says something about the purposefulness and resourcefulness of our community.
Here's a quick run-down of the projects:
Biostrat! Geological ages from species counts.
Lost in 4D Space. Pressure drawdown prediction.
Virtual Metering. Predicting wellhead pressure in real time.
300 Wells. Extracting shows and uncertainty from well reports.
AVO ML. Unsupervised machine learning for more geological AVO.
Core Images. Grain size and lithology from core photos.
4D Layers. Classification engine for 4D seismic data.
Gully Attack. Strat trap picking with deep reinforcement learning.
sketch2seis. Turning geological cartoons into seismic with pix2pix.
I will do a complete review of the projects in the coming few days, but notice the diversity here. Five of the projects straddle geological topics, and five are geophysical. Two or three involve petroleum engineering issues, while two or three move into sed/strat. We saw natural language processing. We saw random forests. We saw GANs, VAEs, and deep reinforcement learning. In terms of input data, we saw core photos, PDF reports, synthetic seismograms, real-time production data, and hastily assembled label sets. In short — we saw everything.
Takk skal du ha
Many thanks to everyone that helped the event come together:
Peter Bormann, the mastermind behind the symposium, was instrumental in making the hackathon happen.
Grete Block Vargle (AkerBP) and Pernille Hammernes (Equinor) kept everyone organized and inspired.
Tone Helene Mydland (NPD) and Soelvi Amundrud (NPD) made sure everything was logistically honed.
Eva Halland (NPD) supported the event throughout and helped with the judging.
Alessandro Amato del Monte (Eni) took some fantastic photos — as seen in this post.
Diego Castaneda and Rob Leckenby helped me on the Agile side of things, and helped several teams.
And a huge thank you to the sponsors of the event — too many to name, but here they all are:
There's more to come!
If you're reading this thinking, "I'd love to go to a geoscience hackathon", and you happen to live in or near the UK, you're in luck! There are two machine learning geoscience hackathons coming up this fall:
Aberdeen, 16 to 18 November, at RGU — sign up on Eventbrite.
London, 23 to 25 November at Olympia (right before PETEX) — sign up on Eventbrite.
Don't miss out! Get signed up and we'll see you there.

Fear and loathing in oil & gas
July 18, 2017 / Evan Bianco
Sometimes you have to swallow your fear. This is one of those times.
The proliferation of 3D seismic in the 1980s was a major step forward for the petroleum industry. However, it took more than a decade for the 3D seismic method to become popular. During that decade, seismic equipment continued to evolve, particularly with the advent of telemetry recording systems that needed for doing 3D surveys offshore.
Things were never the same again. New businesses sprouted up to support it, and established service companies and tech companies exploded size and in order to keep up with the demand and all the new work.
Not so coincidently, another major shift happened in the late 1980s and early 1990s with the industry-wide shift to Sun workstations in order to cope with the crunching and rendering the overwhelming influx of all these digits. UNIX workstations with hilariously large cathode-ray tube monitors became commonplace. This industry helped make Sun and many other IT companies very wealthy, and once again everything was good. At least until Sun's picnic was trampled on by Linux workstations in the early 2000s, but that's another story...
I think the advent of 3D seismic is one of many examples of the upstream oil and gas industry thriving on technological change. 3D seismic changed everything, facilitating progress in the full sense of the word and we never looked back. As an early career geoscientist, I don't know what the world was like before 3D seismic, but I have interpreted 2D data and I know it's an awful experience — even on a computer.
Debilitating skepticism?
Today, in 2017, we find ourselves in the middle of the next major transformation. Like 3D seismic before it, machine learning will alter yesterday's landscape beyond all recognition. We've been through all of this before, but this time, for some reason it feels different. Many people are cautious, unconvinced about whether this next thing will live up to the hype. Other people are vibrating with excitement viewing the whole thing with rose-coloured glasses. Still others truly believe that it will fail — assertively rejecting hopes and over-excited claims that yes, artificial intelligence will catapult us into a better world, a world beyond our wildest dreams.
A little skepticism is healthy, but I meet a lot of people who are so skeptical about this next period of change that they are ignoring it. It feels to me like an unfair level of dismissal, a too-rigid stance. And it has left me rather perplexed: Why is there so much resistance and denial this time around? Why the apprehension?
I'll wager the reason it is different this time because this change is happening to us, in spite of us, whether we like it or not. We're not in the driving seat. Most of us aren't even in the passenger seat. Unlike seismic technology and UNIX|Linux workstations, our sector has had little to do with this revolution. We haven't been pushing for it, instead, it is dragging us along with it. Worse, it's happening fast; even the people who are trying to keep up with it can barely hold on.
This is the opportunity of a lifetime. It's happening. High time to crank up the excitement, get involved, be a part of it. I for one want you to be part of it. Come along with us. We need you, whether you like it or not.

On breaking rules
January 27, 2015 / Matt Hall
Humans have a complicated relationship with rules.
One of the mantras of the 21st century economy is 'first, break all the rules'. If the rules are merely stale conventions, then yes: break away. But it's tempting to go too far and scoff at all rules, and even laws, as the petty creations of boring bureaucrats, declaring, "Rules? Pah! We won't be tied down by your rules!"
But it's not that simple. We like some rules, like the rule about not smoking in aeroplanes, or parking in your reserved parking place. When others break those rules, it's annoying. And rules that define boundaries can heighten, not hinder, creativity and impact — look at code golf, Yves Klein, haiku (though the 5–7–5 thing is a myth), and Twitter.
So what to do about a rule we don't like? There are usually a few options:
Obey it. The rule worked! But maybe not for you.
Change it. This might work, but it might take a while. Good luck!
Break it. Easy! Just pretend it's not there. There's no need to feel bad: everyone else is doing it.
Is that it? Be boring, be brave, or stick it to the man? No, it's a false trichotomy. There is a fourth option:
Make the rule irrelevant. Build or contribute to a new version of reality where the rule no longer applies.
In other words, don't break stupid rules — that doesn't change anything. Better to make your point by subverting the entire foundation of stupid rules. For example:
When lawyer Larry Lessig decided he'd had enough of copyright restrictions, he didn't say 'screw you guys' and start downloading movies on BitTorrent. He started Creative Commons and transformed the way the sharing economy functions. Result: not just reduced revenue, but reduced impact of traditional media — far more important.
The local government will partly fund training for small businesses from a marketing consultant. Apparently, it's common to game this system by hiring a consultant under this program, then simply having them do work for hire — website, branding, and so on. But these are normal business expenses; instead of coercing a broken system to channel public money into private enterprise, we'd all be better off beating a new path to small-scale investment and collaboration.
There's a young would-be Robin Hood in the geoscience publishing world, hosting copyrighted textbook PDFs for free download. He believes he's helping to rid the world of the tyranny of over-priced technical literature, but he's going about it the wrong way. Better to promote open-access literature, and be a champion of legal re-use. This denies 'the establishment' their impact, instead of lauding it, and helps spread truly shareable content.
Next time you come across a rigid rule you don't like, don't break it. Ask instead how you can make the rule not matter.

Touring vs tunnel vision
November 14, 2012 / Evan Bianco
My experience with software started, and still largely sits, at the user end. More often than not, interacting with another's design. One thing I have learned from the user experience is that truly great interfaces are engineered to stay out of the way. The interface is only a skin atop the real work that software does underneath — taking inputs, applying operations, producing outputs. I'd say most users of computers don't know how to compute without an interface. I'm trying to break free from that camp.
In The dangers of default disdain, I wrote about the power and control that the technology designer has over his users. A kind of tunnel is imposed that restricts the choices for interacting with data. And for me, maybe for you as well, the tunnel has been a welcome structure, directing my focus towards that distant point; the narrow aperture invokes at least some forward motion. I've unknowingly embraced the tunnel vision as a means of interacting without substantial choices, without risk, without wavering digressions. I think it's fair to say that without this tunnel, most travellers would find themselves stuck, incapacitated by the hard graft of touring over or around the mountain.
Tour guides instead of tunnels
But there is nothing to do inside the tunnel, no scenery to observe, just a black void between input and output. For some tasks, taking the tunnel is the only obvious and economic choice — all you want is to get stuff done. But choosing the tunnel means you will be missing things along the way. It's a trade off.
For getting from A to B, there are engineers to build tunnels, there are travellers to travel the tunnels, and there is a third kind of person altogether: tour guides take the scenic route. Building your own tunnel is a grand task, only worthwhile if you can find enough passengers to use it. The scenic route isn't just a casual lackadaisical approach. It's necessary for understanding the landscape; by taking it the traveler becomes connected with the territory. The challenge for software and technology companies is to expose people to the richness of their environment while moving them through at an acceptable pace. Is it possible to have a tunnel with windows?
Oil and gas operating companies are good at purchasing the tunnel access pass, but are not very good at building a robust set of tools to navigate the landscape of their data environment. After all, that is the thing that we travellers need to be in constant contact with. Touring or tunneling? The two approaches may or may not arrive at the same destination and they have different costs along the way, making it different business.

Landed!
November 30, 2010 / Matt Hall
After a predictably exhausting trip across Kensington, then across Calgary, then across Canada, then across Nova Scotia, we have landed in our new town. Next week (we hope) we make the final move across the village to our house. Before then, we have some painting, planning, repairing and replacing to do. Fun stuff, but I am going to be trying to make myself useful to present and future clients while we do it. We'll see how that goes!
In the meantime, I got my new business cards just before we left Calgary. They are a bit home-made, but I like it that way. The geeky 2D barcode thing is a QRCode, and very easy to make online (just Google make qrcode). This one points at this website. You can encode more or less anything in them, but the more text you encode, the bigger they get. They max out at 255 characters.

Packing our bags
We fly to Halifax in a week. Before that, we have to pack up our house... or, rather, watch some guys come to pack up our house. Supposedly it will only take a day, and they'll be ready to load the truck on Tuesday. Unfortunately, it has become very cold and snowy, so it won't be much fun for them, trudging between the house and the truck.
Relief all around this week as we have finally sold our house, after it was on the market for about ten weeks. The buyer got themselves a good deal, and we got some peace of mind. The transaction doesn't happen till 1 February, but once we get to Nova Scotia, I think time will start to fly. Just as well, since we'll be paying for two mortgages till then.
Only 7 more sleeps in Calgary.

Welcome to Agile*
In late August, my family and I spent a week in Chester, Nova Scotia. Beautiful little seaside town. Incredible weather. And the Multiple Listing System. We decided to look at some houses, around Chester, Mahone Bay, and Lunenburg. So gorgeous! So old! So inexpensive! We'd already looked at a few online, of course, talking about the options. Reduce our mortgage(s). Work from home, Enjoy the outdoors, the sea, the community.
Next thing you know, we've made an offer on an amazing house, had it accepted, talked to a mortgage broker, and changed our lives completely. Our happy, safe, healthy, wealthy life in Calgary, Alberta. In our beautiful, much-loved, unique house. Where my fun, exciting, interesting, well-paid-with-great-benefits job is. Or was, because I quit last Thursday and in two weeks we're moving, jobless, to the other side of the continent to see what life is like in the slow lane.
And I can't wait!

This year Gallagher Bassett (GB) welcomed 10 interns as part of the six week program designed to equip young people with the necessary skills and experience to achieve success as professionals in the insurance industry.
Highly interactive three-day orientation event in Brisbane, focused on networking and business skills, and an introduction to GB.
Networking evening in Brisbane where our intern group were welcomed by various GB leaders, executives and staff.
Regular coaching and mentoring to support their experience.
Individual development plan, designed to expose them to various activities and role responsibilities.
All interns have been assigned a process improvement project, and they will present their findings and recommendations back to the business in their final week of the program.
Interns participate in weekly videoconference sessions.
On Day 1, the interns were welcomed by Stacey Williams, Executive General Manager – Sales and Engagement, who discussed GB's history, structure and vision, and gave them an introduction to the insurance industry and the various product lines at GB.
On Day 2, Stacey spent further time with the group discussing our Workers' Compensation unit, and on Day 3, the interns met Scott Newland, National Operations Manager, who focused on our Speciality Markets and Catastrophe areas.
As the students know very little about insurance prior to their arrival, these sessions are a valuable insight into the complex and interesting world of claims management.
The Australian Association of Graduate Employers (AAGE) recently awarded Gallagher Bassett (GB) the Best Intern Program in Australia for 2018. The survey summarises the views and experiences of around 800 interns who have taken part in an internship program with an employer.


People talk about the draw of Brad Stevens at Boston, Hayward's college coach, but the player made more progress under Snyder than he did under Stevens. Snyder is every bit the coach that Stevens is. The fans of Utah are every bit the fans that Celtics fans are. As formerly constituted, the Jazz were every bit the talented young team that Boston was, probably better. The Jazz money was stacked higher than the Celtics money was, which should have spoken to Hayward, who once was about as frugal an individual as there was in the NBA.
Look, this was Hayward's decision. It was a personal decision. And Hayward made it personal, stumbling and bumbling around with it.
"Hayward made it personal"??? So apparently does Monson. "As frugal an individual as there was in the NBA"? Call Gordon cheap, which was your intent, Mr. Monson, but even though he is gone, no one was more cheap than Larry Bird. And Larry was proud of it. And the fans in Utah are every bit as good as Boston fans? I am admittedly biased, but no way that works.
And Quinn Snyder is a quality coach, no doubt. Look at what he has done. But Brad Stevens is Coach-of-the-Year this season, and I don't care what the voters have to say (unless he gets the award). Brad has done a super-human job of working successfully through the misfortune that you must spend long hours celebrating.
These are only bits and pieces from Monson's poison pen. Sensationalism in sports writing can be justified. Even occasional venom can be supported by a strong, intelligent argument. Your argument, Mr. Monson, is admittedly strong but is sorely missing the intelligence factor. There is little logic in your prose.
I have closely followed Hayward's recovery, and I am truly amazed by his strong will and tenacity. I have been wrongly underestimating his abilities since he came into the NBA, but you are now doing the same, Mr. Monson, out of sheer bitterness. There is no justifying that.
For our readers, there were more barbs in Monson's rant - such as "softies in the East" and Celtics "getting killed by Golden State", but I think you have heard enough. The game against Utah is Wednesday night, and it would be nice for Boston's severely-depleted corps to come away with a win. Either way, we have the better Gordon (Hayward).
I learned a few days ago that poisonous snakes need to inject only part of their venom so they can save some while replenishing what was lost. The well-hidden copperhead that I came close to stepping on recently was a baby, and they often inject all they have at once. So we await the lesser Gordon's (Monson) replenishment of poison for his next strike. As far as basketball fans, do Utah readers actually read and believe this crap?

Q: Generating Backups of Databases I would like to create a backup of four databases on one SQL Server 2000 instance at the exact same moment in time.
How can I achieve it?
Creating different jobs with the same schedule date and time does apparently produces a difference in the moment when the backup is taken.

A: You will need to have the Full Recovery Model enabled on all four databases.
Now you will issue a full backup on all four databases, let's say ten minutes before the point in time you require.
Now you will do a transaction log backup of each database, at a point in time immediately after the exact moment you need.
On the other end, you will restore each full backup WITH NORECOVERY, and then transaction log backup, with the RESTORE LOG WITH STOPAT switch to specify the exact moment in time you need, as a DATETIME.
Remember to RESTORE WITH RECOVERY at the end to bring them into active use.

A: If you want the backups to start at the same time, this would do it. Create a batch file that contains something like the following and run it manually or run it through the SQL Agent (osql for SQL 2000).
start osql -E -Q "backup database master to disk = 'c:\temp\master.bak'"
start osql -E -Q "backup database model  to disk = 'c:\temp\msdb.bak'"
start osql -E -Q "backup database msdb   to disk = 'c:\temp\msdb.bak'"

You might ask, why not just paste this in a SQL Agent command job? SQL seems to only allow one command to run and no more. I haven't tried this with SQL 2000 in a while though--it might work on that version.

Reasons To Love The PC Games
PC games have been there in our rising years. They've been a lot easier to play than any other games. Once I was small the gaming consoles were not there. This does not mean that I hate the gaming consoles. I play them too however I discover more joy with the PC games. Though I agree that consoles are a little handy to play because it doesn't want upgrading occasionally in order that the games can be played on it.
The reasons I like these games are as follows:
• Well, actually speaking PC games are loads finances friendly. So, they are loads affordable than the gaming consoles. You may by no means regret shopping for them feeling that you have spent some additional bucks on them. The facilities of the gaming experiences they provide are total worth for money. Plus the games offer much more attention-grabbing options which keep one's interest in the matter.
• Within the PC games, you possibly can easily play the multiplayer games. You shouldn't have to pay anything for that. So, if you're in a mood to check your skills by competing with your friends or others over the internet, you possibly can easily do that.

Yup, it's that time of the year again: the time people honor moms around the world by buying overpriced flowers, generic Hallmark cards and the fail-safe choice for lazy gifters everywhere: Edible Arrangements.

Why not make your mom feel more special by, oh, I don't know: making your own gift? These quick, thoughtful and above all, HEALTHY gifts will make your mom feel more loved than any $35 boquet… plus, they last much longer.
A classic, any day of the month!
Cookies are a surefire way to put a smile on any mom's face, and they don't take long. My mom loves my homemade Oatmeal Raisin Cookies, but CCCs, 2x chocolate and peanut butter snickerdoodles are also popular picks. Plus, you can crank 'em out in less than an hour. Then, scrounge up a box, smack some cute magazine cutouts on them and add some colorful paper and BAM! You've got your mother's day present. Don't forget to steal a cookie or two so she doesn't feel like a fatty eating 'em by herself!
Thanks mom, for dealing with us sweaty, whiny city kids for all these years!
There's nothing like spending quality time with mum amidst the great outdoors… even if it's just a local walk to the park. Sure, hiking or strolling in the Botanical Gardens is probably better, but the key here is to spend time with her. You'll also enjoy some fresh air, and who doesn't love that?
Moms need to look pretty too!
Face it: every mom loves to look glam, not like she's been spending half her life taking care of kids! Make her feel extra special by grabbing some cute beauty products. My pick: Bite Deconstructed Rose Lip Gloss Library set, which features 12 shades she can mix and match for any occasion. Don't forget her nails too… the Priti NYC French Manicure set makes her look ladylike and won't give off that irritating nail polish-smell. Kudos if you do her nails for her too!
The classic bed – and – breakfast is loved by pretty much every human being, but what about lunch and dinner? Give mom a whole-day's break by whipping up some delicious meals for the whole damn day. Not a cook? Even you can make a burrito with the right ingredients, or a hearty vegetable curry. Don't be lazy– mom's been doing it all these years, you can manage it for one day.
A day at the spa? Or maybe a massage at home? Whatever your style, it's easy unwind in your own way with the right tools– try a natural massage oil, paired with some relaxing teas, candles, or one of those heatable gel mask thingies. Yeah, they look weird, but damn, do they feel goooood.
Above all, it's not about you today, so make her feel like it really is a HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!
Blast from the past— damn we look young!


You want to be in section 102 or 103. 101 is too far right of the stage.
For this venue to get a great view you need to be in section 102 or 103.I was in section 101 and it was too far to the right for a $300 price tag.Also the seats are crammed together and standing room is abysmal.
Dead center, great, full view.
A little to the side of the stage, but 95% clear view.
Hard to see faces but great overall view!
Small venue, no bad seats really!

Interview with ONI Investigator Robert Steel
Cigar chomping Dallas Detective Paul Bentley takes Oswald into custody
Detective Paul Bentley
Perhaps you are aware that ONI has quite a file on Oswald, which no doubt has been made available on the Washington level. If not, I am certain that this information can be obtained for you through our resident special agent in charge of the Dallas office, A. C. Sullivan, who is a wonderful agent, and whom I hope you know. As a personal friend, I congratulate you, wish you continued success, and pray that your guardian angel will remain close at hand and vigilant, always.
Robert D. Steel
Commander, USNR-R

Q: What did you do after the war?
RDS: I first worked for the Internal Revenue Service as a tax collector.
Q: In San Diego?
RDS: Collecting from business men in San Diego, and following that Naval Intelligence, I came to work for them as a special agent.
Q: What year did you leave active duty and join the Naval Reserves.
RDS: I suppose that would be 1945.
Q: And what year did you join ONI?
RDS: 1948.
Q: How many years did you work for ONI?
RDS: As a special agent 22 years.
Q: Did you work for ONI in any other capacity other than special agent?
RDS: Yes, I was a commanding officer of the Reserve officers throughout the area.
Q: What years would that have been?
RDS: That was for a two year period and I had to work my way up to that position, and I retired from that around 1962.
Q: When you were working as a special agent were you technically a civilian agent?
RDS: Yes sir, but I wore two hats, being a Reserve officer I was also doing Reserve duty from time to time with various other agencies – CIA, FBI and other military services in Washington DC mainly.
Q: Did you serve as liaison with CIA and FBI so to speak?
RDS: I wouldn't call it liaison, I was indoctrinated into their activities.
Q: Did you work for the same branch or department of ONI while you were a special agent all those years?
RDS: Would you repeat the question?

RDS: Yes.
Q: Did your work at ONI involve liaison with any other government agencies?
RDS: (Laughs) Yes.

Q: In which naval district were you stationed in late 1959-60?
RDS: My headquarters were always in this naval district.
Q: That would include San Diego?
RDS: San Diego and all the area that included Arizona and New Mexico.
Q: Who was your boss 1959-1963?
RDS: Who was my boss? I had many.
Q: Did you know Fred Reeves?
RDS: (Laugh) A very good close friend.
Q: Was he the head of the San Diego ONI office?
RDS: For a brief period.
Q: Do you remember roughly when?
RDS: No I'm sorry I can't recall.
Q: Was he ever your boss.
RDS: Very briefly. We were mainly co-workers.
Q: When did you start living in San Diego?
RDS: Ten, 1942.
Q: Where was your office in San Diego?
RDS: Headquarters building was at Broadway Pier.
Q: Who were your closest colleagues in San Diego?
RDS: ONI or other law enforcement agencies?
Q: I was thinking ONI.
RDS: I had dozens, I mean, its best to be good to everybody.
Q: Do you know what a "119 Report" was?
RDS: Yes sir.
Q: Did you ever write any 119 Reports on anyone while you were with ONI?
RDS: Hundreds of them.
Q: Did you have anyone working under you in 1959.
Q: Is it fair to say that you did as well in 1963?
RDS: Repeat?
Q: Did you have anyone working under you in 1963?
RDS: Its hard to say working under me, we worked as a team. There were people in certain positions who were less qualified as myself, so we worked as a team because somebody had to fill certain billets, somebody had to sit by at a desk because they were incapable of doing certain things.
Q: Let me put it this way, were you anybody's boss in 1963?
RDS: We worked as team, they were co-workers.
Q: Okay. Fred Reeves told the Assassinations Records Review Board that a week or so after Lee Harvey Oswald defected to the USSR, Reeves had been called by two ONI officers in Washington DC and was asked to do a background investigation on Oswald at El Toro, Marine Air Station, Oswald's last duty station before leaving the Marine Corps. Is it possible you did this investigation for Reeves?
Q: Would you say it is possible or would you say it is probable?
RDS: Probable.
Q: Is it fair to say you were you probably sent in to do this investigation of Oswald because you were a more highly skilled experienced investigator than the ONI people stationed at El Toro who were used to doing more mundane investigation.
Q: Do you remember doing this investigation for Reeves at El Toro?
RDS: (Yes) but not very well.
Q: Given that Oswald was stationed at El Toro and had just defected, I'd like to ask you some hypothetical questions. Would have done it by yourself or with other special agents?
RDS: (unintelligible)
Q: Okay. Would you have questioned Oswald's former colleagues at El Toro?
Q: Would you have had a stenographer with you?
RDS: No.
Q: Would you have introduced yourself to these marines you were questioning?
Q: Do you remember the name Nelson Delgado at El Toro.
RDS: Not the name, could you tell me his position?
Q: He was a marine like Oswald and a friend of Oswald, not an officer, an enlisted man.
RDS: No I don't remember.
Q: Okay. Going back to Reeves and the ARRB Final Report, Reeves said he went to El Toro Marine Air Station, copied Oswald's enlisted personnel files, talked to Oswald's associates and mailed this to ONI in Washington D.C. Reeves said that ONI in Washington DC ran the post defection investigation of Oswald and the Washington officers then directed various agents in the field. Reeves said he did not interview anyone himself but that later, late 1959 or early 1960, there were approximately twelve to fifteen ONI 119 Reports that crossed his desk. Reeves said he was aware of some of the 119 Reports from Japan and Texas and that the primary concern of the reports he read on Oswald was to ascertain what damage to national security Oswald's defection to the USSR had caused. Is it possible that you wrote any of the 119 Reports on Oswald that crossed Reeves' desk?
Q: Do you remember writing any of them?
Q: Okay, shifting gears a little bit here, was Detective Paul Bentley of the Dallas Police Department a friend of yours?
RDS: An acquaintance.
Q: How did you know him?
RDS: I'm not sure, but I think he was a polygraph examiner.
Q: Did you ever work with him?
RDS: I think (we were in) the Navy together. [Unintelligible]
Q: Now you wrote a letter to Paul Bentley on November 24, 1963, two days after Oswald was arrested in Dallas, and in the letter you say that quote "ONI had quite a file on Oswald," and in the letter you also said that A. C. Sullivan of the ONI office could provide Bentley with this file. Did you send this letter before or after Jack Ruby shot Oswald that day?
RDS: Did I send the letter before….?
Q: It's an historical fact that Jack Ruby shot Oswald on the 24th of November, 1963 and the letter you sent Bentley was dated the same day, so I am wondering if you sent it before or after Ruby shot Oswald?
RDS: I'm sure it was after.
Q: How did you know that ONI had quote "quite a file on Oswald" at that time?
RDS: (Long pause) I don't know.
Q: Did you see it?
RDS: Did I see it?
Q: Did you see the ONI file on Oswald?
RDS: I may have written the God damn thing.
Q: Okay. Was A.C. Sullivan of Dallas a friend of yours.
RDS: A very close friend.
Q: How did you come to know him?
RDS: He was in the same business I was in. He had been a guest at my home. I had been a guest at his home.
Q: Now was he the head of the Dallas ONI office?
RDS: Yes he was.
Q: Did Sullivan know about the ONI file on Oswald?
RDS: Of course.
Q: Did A.C. Sullivan already have the file on Nov. 24, 1963
RDS: Undoubtedly.
Q: Did you ever speak with Sullivan about Oswald's ONI file?
Q: Looking back at it, are you sure your statement in the letter that ONI had quite a file on Oswald was accurate? Absolutely sure, very sure, or less sure now than when I wrote the letter.
RDS: Does the letter today bring back any memories?
Q: Reads letter: Dear Paul, Perhaps you are aware ONI has quite a file on Oswald…..
Q: Did you ever write to or discuss with anyone else about Oswald's ONI file?
RDS: I don't think so, other than A.C. Sullivan.
Q: Did you ever have occasion to visit the Dallas ONI office?
RDS: Yes, a number of times.
Q: Where was it located?
RDS: It was in the Post Office building, it was across the street, it was the building from which Kennedy was killed.
Q: It was near Dealey Plaza, and there was a Post Office building on the other side.
Q: Did the Dallas ONI do general ONI work or did it specialize in certain things?
RDS: General.
Q: Did you know other law enforcement or intelligence people in the Dallas area?
Q: Did you know J. Mason Langford, of Ft. Worth, he was head of security for General Dynamics or Convair and later became fire martial of the county.
RDS: I don't recall him.
Q: Did you know I.P. Hale or Max Clark?
RDS: Both names sound familiar but I don't recall right now.
Q: Did you know Pat Gannaway, of the Dallas Police Special Services Bureau?
RDS: I just don't remember.
Q: Did you know Jack Revell, the head of the Dallas Criminal Section of the SSB?
RDS: These names are all familiar but I don't recall them.
Q: Did you know Colonel Robert E. Jones of 112 Army Intel Group at Fort Sam Houston?
RDS: I don't recall.
Q: James Powell, an Army Intelligence agent of the 112th?
RDS: The name is familiar but I don't recall.
Q: Had you heard of Lee Harvey Oswald or Harvey Lee Oswald before the assassination?
RDS: Yes, its possible that I knew him very, very well.
Q: On some documents the name is transposed – Harvey Lee Oswald.
RDS: That is a common occurrence and I never paid much attention to it.
Q: You said there's a good chance you know Oswald quite well before the assassination?
RDS: Quite possibly.
Q: How would you have possibly known about Oswald quite well before the assassination?
RDS: Because I may have investigated the guy. (After his 1959 defection)
Q: Do you remember investigating him?
RDS: Vaguely [?]
Q: What is your personal opinion of ONI and Oswald?
RDS: ONI was a wonderful organization. As for Oswald, he was a sick man.
Q: What is your personal opinion of the causes of the assassination?
RDS: Oswald was just sick out of his mind.
Q: Do you think he killed Kennedy by himself?
Q: Where were you when you heard Kennedy was shot?
RDS: I don't know.
Q: When you heard that Oswald had been arrested, did his name sound familiar to you?
Q: Is there anything else you want to say about Oswald, ONI and the assassination?
Q: Thank you for letting me interview you today, Commander Steel.
RDS: I graduated from the University…. in ….Texas, then I went to Northwestern University midshipman school in Chicago in January 1942 and graduated in May, 1942. I came out to the West Coast, I was in charge of training , Naval section from the University of Southern California, followed by … Midshipman from UCLA.
RDS: Yes I did, for the last two years of the war I was on board …. a destroyer escort.

For Rwanda's population of Mountain gorillas, poaching remains one of the biggest threats to their long-term survival. But after decades of being a prime target for unlawful hunters, these critically endangered gorillas have apparently learned to outsmart them -- and even the youngsters are getting in on the act.
This week, conservationists from Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund observed, for the first time ever, a pair of juvenile gorillas doing something remarkably clever: destroying sharp, wooden snares set out by poachers to trap them. Just days earlier, a gorilla had been killed in a similar snare nearby, which may have familiarized the youngsters with the workings of those cruel devices.
"We knew that gorillas do this but all of the reported cases in the past were carried out by adult gorillas, mostly silverbacks. Today, two juveniles and one blackback from Kuryama's group worked together to deactivate two snares and how they did it demonstrated an impressive cognitive skill," said Veronica Vecellio, a program director from the Fund.
John Ndayambaje, our field data coordinator, reported that he saw one snare very close to the group; since the gorillas were moving in that direction, he decided to deactivate it. Silverback Vuba pig-grunted at him (a vocalization of warning) and at the same time juveniles Dukore and Rwema together with blackback Tetero ran toward the snare and together pulled the branch used to hold the rope. They saw another snare nearby and as quickly as before they destroyed the second branch and pulled the rope out of the ground.
"Today we can proudly confirm that gorillas are doing their part too!"


Situated on the southern margin of what was once the largest freshwater wetland complex in the western United States, the Kern Refuge provides optimum wintering habitat for migratory birds with an emphasis on waterfowl and water birds. In 1960, Kern National Wildlife Refuge was established, consisting of 11,249-acres of natural desert uplands, a relict riparian corridor, and developed marsh and wetland sites, suitable for a variety of wildlife. The refuge serves to restore a small segment of extremely valuable waterfowl habitat and plays an important role in the success of avifauna or bird life using the Pacific Flyway.
The refuge perpetually struggles to secure sufficient water to create and maintain this invaluable wetland habitat. Through this project, The Nature Conservancy will acquire water from water districts participating in a dry year water transfer program and convey the water to the Kern Refuge during fall and winter months to create and/or enhance wetland habitat during a high-priority time of year for migratory birds.
This project serves as pilot element of The Nature Conservancy's larger vision to increase and sustain the delivery of environmental flows over the long-term to support environmental needs in California's Central Valley. This project will assist the refuge in piloting a new, more efficient conveyance route for water, leverage market-based mechanisms to strengthen relationships with local water purveyors, and continue to support the needs of local communities while protecting water critical for wildlife habitat.

George Michael (1963-2016): effortless and free – the best way to remember him
2016 continues to be year of living dangerously for giants of music world
Mon, Dec 26, 2016, 01:46 Updated: Mon, Dec 26, 2016, 12:36
A selection of George Michael's biggest hits from his early days with Wham! to his successful solo career

How can we tell the singer from the song?
For every outstanding George Michael musical moment, there is a corollary headline in the tabloid press. The singing star, who launched his career with Wham! In the 1980s, but who was immeasurably better as a solo performer, died on Christmas day, aged just 53.
2016 continues to be the year of living dangerously for giants of the music world.
Michael passed away peacefully (the exact cause of death will remain unknown until after the post-mortem) and the tragedy here is that, after a number of years in semi-retirement, he was poised to re-enter the fray in 2017 with the release of a major documentary of his life, called "Freedom" and there were plans to record and tour again.
From a fake-tan boyband beginning, he did the near impossible by maturing into an acclaimed soul singer, selling over 100 million records and becoming one of the best-selling British selling artists of all time.
His picaresque life made him a tabloid favourite.
From sexual escapades to drug influenced incidents, he perhaps helped sell as many newspapers as he did records. But he was a man of robust good humour who wore his fame lightly.
At a press conference in London in 2011, to launch his "Symphonica" tour shortly after his release from prison for driving under the influence of drugs, I asked him about the "lifestyle changes" he was making. "Oh, that – it just means I've cut way back to just the seven or eight spliffs a day."
It had been 25 spliffs a day he elaborated, by way of context.

He was born Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou (his father was a Greek Cypriot restaurant owner) in London in 1963. He met Andrew Ridgeley at school and the pair formed Wham! in the early 1980s.
Ridiculed by music critics for their bouncy pop music and stunts such as shoving shuttlecocks down their tight shorts to "enhance their appeal", Wham! were nevertheless a 1980s pop phenomenon on the same scale as Duran Duran and Culture Club. Their songs such as Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go and Careless Whisper were rarely off the radio.
But Michael was more in thrall to soul music than pop novelty. He always said that the highlight of his career was standing in a vocal booth in a recording studio beside his hero, Aretha Franklin, when they teamed up to record the I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me) single in 1987.
With a spectacular multi-octave voice and ambition and talent to burn, he had already released his first solo single – the haunting but little-known, A Different Corner, in 1986, even before Wham! Officially bowed out with a final concert at London's Wembley Stadium.
His debut solo album, Faith, in 1987, transformed him into a global star – the whimsy of Wham! had been replaced with masterful ballads and funk-flecked rock n' roll.
There were struggles though.
His quality control wasn't always the best – the Listen Without Prejudice album from 1990 performed badly with its overwrought songs and Michael Jackson-lite lyrical matter. The singer did have a chip on his shoulder about his Wham! beginnings and the level of fame he was being exposed to at this stage was inimical to his longing for some semblance of a private life.
Michael's sexuality was an open secret within the music industry, but it wasn't until he was arrested for engaging in a "lewd act" in a public lavatory in Beverly Hills, California, that he talked about his homosexuality.
At the London press conference in 2011, he talked at some length about the attention focused on his sex life and became solemn as he said: "Every time I've made a mistake in my life I felt like I was letting down young gay people because they could see the homophobic abuse being thrown at me. I've inadvertently caused a lot of damage to gay people."
After his vertiginous rise to the top of the musical pile in the 1980s and 1990s, Michael became a semi-reclusive figure over the last 16 years. There has been only one studio album in that time, 2004's underwhelming "Patience".
Concern was expressed by the amount of drug offences he was racking up (mostly, marijuana related). In 2010 he was given a custodial prison sentence and a five-year driving ban after admitting driving under the influence of drugs having crashed his car into a shop window late at night near his Hampstead home.
The singer talked openly about how traumatised he was by his first proper relationship with a Brazilian designer, Anselmo Feleppa. The two had fell in love in 1991 but six months later Feleppa discovered he was HIV positive and died two years later from a brain haemorrhage.
Michael, who had carried out the relationship in secret, was rocked to his very core by Feleppa's death and later wrote the touching, Jesus to a Child, about his lover.
A colossal talent beset by private demons, the tragedy about his early passing is that in latter years George Michael was reaching new creative heights as a performer. His last tour – the Symphonica series of shows,which saw him doing orchestral rearrangements of his songs – was one of the best music shows of the last five years with his vocals being supple, emotive and wistful.
He sounded effortless and free.
The best way to remember him.

As winter firmly takes hold, this fun science project is a great way to spend a cold afternoon inside. Use pipe cleaners to create custom snowflake shapes or long, straight icicles that will magically crystalize overnight with only two easy household ingredients.
The finished products are beautiful hanging from windows or attached to presents.
Create snowflake shapes using the pipe cleaners. One long pipe cleaner can be cut into three pieces and then twisted into a simple star. Make the snowflakes as plain or fancy as desired, but remember the snowflakes need to be able to fit into the container with the Borax solution.
Use string to tie to a part of the snowflake. Tie the other end of the string to a pencil or something long enough to span the width of the container you are using.
To make the Borax solution, mix 1/3 cup of Borax to 2 cups of boiling water. Stir until the Borax is dissolved, about 1 to 2 minutes. Make enough solution to completely cover your snowflakes.
With the snowflake attached to your pencil or stick, submerge the pipe cleaner snowflake into the solution. If making more than one snowflake, make sure they don't touch each other or the bottom of the container.
Now is the easy part. Leave the container alone overnight and check out the amazing crystal snowflakes the next day.

Butler, Iommi and Ozzy reunited at last to construct what they were acutely aware may be the final Black Sabbath studio album, and perhaps under such circumstances it's understandable that they decided to take a long look backwards. Compare the structure of album opener End of the Beginning and the title track from the debut, for instance, and they're really rather similar, and final track Dear Father fades out into the sounds of a rainy thunderstorm just as the debut album faded in on one, tying the whole saga up in a blow.
In between those bookends, the boys deliver an album which, whilst I don't think it will ever rank on the same level as their early-1970s classics, is a more than appropriate swansong, taking the traditional metal style they originated and making it sing one last time and proving that they can still play slow, crushingly doomy metal which wouldn't sound out of place in a mix with Electric Wizard or Warning. If this truly is the end, it's not a bad way to go.

Society of Milwaukee Artists
by Gay Donahue
The Society of Milwaukee Artists, later to be known as Wisconsin Painters & Sculptors, organized on October 22, 1900, represents a turning point in the history of art in Milwaukee and Wisconsin.[1] At the turn-of-the century, a small coterie of approximately 10 to 15 artists living in Milwaukee, founded a professional artist association which was intended to establish a greater public appreciation for fine art and a more secure economic position for Milwaukee artists. The realization of this goal became possible when, by 1900, the first generation of Wisconsin-born artists had returned from an academic European milieu, which provided these enterprising turn-of-the-century artists with the skills to gain cultural and economic support in Milwaukee. These young, spirited men were joined by several older artists who had immigrated to Milwaukee as early as 1885.[2]
The older artists were trained at the German Academies of Weimar, Düsseldorf, Leipzig and Munich. Milwaukee, known at that time as "Little Munich", attracted these artists in 1885, with the promise of employment in studios, which were producing a popular form of art, called panorama paintings. The panoramas drew large crowds paying to see huge canvases, which were painted with landscape and historical scenes, rolled by spools across the stage. It was a popular phenomenon for less than a decade and by 1890, its popularity was on the wane.[3] When it had ended, most of these artists who were from German-speaking countries elected to stay in Milwaukee, supporting themselves as instructors and selling their works. As instructors, they found employment with the Wisconsin Art Institute, supported largely by Captain Frederick Pabst,[4] and later in the Milwaukee Art Students League, founded in 1894 by the first generation of their students.[5]
European study was encouraged for every Milwaukee student who came under the tutelage of these older panorama artists. After spending several years abroad, the younger men joined with their teachers in the studio of 31 year old Louis Mayer in order to establish this new organization, which was devoted to the interests of professional art and artists. The purpose for the inception of the group, stated at its first meeting was:
The Society of Milwaukee Artists, having been organized to promote the interest of art in general and for the purpose of material aid and encouragement, depends on the support of the public and in particular on those citizens who believe in the ennobling and educational influences of art.[6]
Louis Mayer became the group's first president. Alexander Mueller, another of the younger artists who had just returned to Milwaukee from abroad, was made treasurer. Richard Lorenz, former panorama painter and teacher to both Mayer and Mueller at the Wisconsin Art Institute in the early 1890s, was chosen for vice-president. Frank Enders, the only panorama painter who was a native of Milwaukee, was the secretary. Other founding members included Frederick Heine, Bernhard Schneider, Conrad Heyd, George Peter, Robert Schade (all former panorama painters), George Raab (recently returned from study in Europe), Jessie Schley and Julia Johnheyson. The group's membership never exceeded 15, usually averaging 10. Membership dues went to support the publication of catalogues, and the exhibition space was to be provided by the community. A selection jury of six membership artists and usually a few trustees of the institution hosting the exhibit were chosen annually to limit the number of works being exhibited at one time.[7]
The public exhibition was the means by which society members felt they could best promote the arts in Milwaukee. The group sought to hold at least three exhibitions annually of no less than two weeks duration each and proposed that the exhibitions occur on a permanent basis.[8] Exhibition space was first provided by the Milwaukee Public Library where the first four shows were held between 1900 and 1903. The first exhibition was the largest in the society's thirteen years with twelve artists showing a total of sixty-one works.[9]
The landscape became a very important subject for paintings made by the Society of Milwaukee artists, and a look
at the earliest exhibition catalogues will testify to the importance of depicting local scenery and its changing appearance in daylight. This type of landscape was exemplified by Bernhard Schneider's paintings of the Milwaukee River and Cedarburg areas. The idea presented in much of Schneider's work is one that attempted to evoke a mood of tranquility in the viewer.
In 1903 the Public Library could no longer furnish exhibition space to the artists, and they were left without a permanent place to exhibit. Later exhibition locations during the following years were Bressler's Gallery, the University Club, the Old Exposition Building (before it burned in 1905), and the subsequent Auditorium Building, which was built in 1908.[10]
The artists continued to meet and to exhibit occasionally despite the discouragement they felt by their failure to gain permanent exhibition space. In 1906, a special meeting was called by members in an attempt to organize a society for the promotion of art and to organize exhibitions of local artwork. The inclusion of non-artists in the organization and a proposal to purchase art from local artists, which was to be placed in public buildings in the city, were additional aims discussed within the context of this proposed new society. Although this new group was never established, the idea it generated was acted upon in 1910 by the Milwaukee Journal newspaper company, which offered to buy paintings by Milwaukee artists to be hung in public buildings and schools. This offer represented a vital step toward corporate patronage in Milwaukee and one which escalated during the second decade of the 19th century.[11]

Q: Getting Rectangles stacked vertically to horizontally but keeping shape I have the input done correctly all my rectangles are stacked vertically and have different colors each time a new rectangle is drawn, but I am struggling to get the output to look like the bottom pic. Please can anybody help put me on the right path.

    //List to strore all randomly generated rectangles
    List<Rectangle> rectangleCollection = new List<Rectangle>();
    //Counts the amount of time a rectangle needs to be drawn
    int count = 0;

    public static Random ran = new Random();

    void CreateRectangle()
    {
        int TallestRectangle = 0; ;

        int PrevRecY = 0;

        Graphics graphic = pictureBox1.CreateGraphics();
        SolidBrush brush;

        foreach (Rectangle rect in rectangleCollection)
        {
            if (rect.Height > TallestRectangle)
                TallestRectangle = rect.Height;
        }

        foreach (Rectangle rect in rectangleCollection)
        {
            graphic.FillRectangle(brush = new SolidBrush(Color.FromArgb(ran.Next(1, 255), ran.Next(1, 255), ran.Next(1, 255))),
                new Rectangle(rect.X + PrevRecY, (TallestRectangle - rect.Height), rect.Width, rect.Height));

            PrevRecY += rect.Width;
        }
    }

    private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        count = int.Parse(textBox1.Text);
        for (int i = 0; i < count; i++)
        {
            GetRandomRectangle();
        }
        CreateRectangle();
    }

    void GetRandomRectangle()
    {
        Graphics graph = this.CreateGraphics();
        int x = 0;
        int y = 0;

        int width = ran.Next(20, 100);
        int height = ran.Next(30, 150);

        Rectangle rec1 = new Rectangle(x, y, width, height);
        rectangleCollection.Add(rec1);
    }

A: For each rectangle, ordered shortest to tallest,

*

*Make a horizontal rectangle of that height, starting from the left of all rectangles taller than that, ending at the right of all rectangles right of that.

Whenever you're creating a horizontal rectangle place it on top of the highest horizontal rectangle that is below (in terms of hiorizontal position) the one you're creating.


Drs. Henry Cloud and John Townsend offer solid guidance for making safe choices in relationships, from friendships to romance. They help identify the nurturing people we all need in our lives, as well as ones we need to learn to avoid. Safe People will help you to recognize 20 traits of relationally untrustworthy people. Discover what makes some people relationally safe, and how to avoid unhealthy entanglements. You'll learn about things within yourself that jeopardize your relational security. And you'll find out what to do and what not to do to develop a balanced, healthy approach to relationships.
Safe People: How to Find Relationships That Are Good for You and Avoid Those That Aren't by Henry Cloud and John Townsend deals with the problem of character discernment. Cloud and Townsend write, "Safe people are individuals who draw us closer to being the people God intended us to be. Though not perfect, they are 'good enough' in their own character that the net effect of their presence in our lives is positive. They are accepting, honest, and present, and they help us bear good fruit in our lives (pg. 11)." The goal of Safe People is two fold. First, it will help us find and recognize safe and unsafe people. Second, it will also help us recognize areas in our lives where we are unsafe and help us become a safe person.
"In Part 1, 'Unsafe People,' you'll learn who unsafe people are and the twenty identifying traits of unsafe people (chapters 1-4).
In Part 2, 'Do I Attract Unsafe People?' you'll get a picture of the origin of the problem: why you currently choose the wrong people, and how to repair this problem (chapters 5-8).
In Part 3, 'Safe People,' you will learn more about what safe people are and why you need them. You will also receive practical help on successfully meeting and relating to safe people.
We designed this book to help you look both outside and inside yourself. (pg. 12)"
If you are open to honestly examining yourself, your relationships and your actions, Safe People will definitely give you a greater understanding of your role in interpersonal relationships. It is a Christian faith-based book. I thought it was very convicting to examine the relationships I have and the role I take in them. Along with Cloud and Townsend's book Boundaries, it has the potential to be a powerful tool, especially for a Christian's recovery from various problems. A friend recommended this book to me and I appreciate that. While I really liked Safe People, in many ways I thought Boundaries was more beneficial for me personally, but Safe People is still very highly recommended and I'm glad I read it.
1. What Is an Unsafe Person?
Part Two Do I Attract Unsafe People?
5. Do I Have a 'Safety Deficit'?
6. Why Do I Choose Unsafe Relationships?
8. Why Do I Isolate Myself from People?
9. What Are Safe People?
10. Why Do We Need Safe People?
11. Where Are the Safe People?
13. Should I Repair or Replace?
Have you ever said any of the following things to yourself?
How can I learn to pick better friends?
Why do I chose people who let me down?
How did I end up with this critical boss?
How do I attract irresponsible people?
Why did I invest money with that unscrupulous person?
What is it about me that draws the wrong types to me?
Why am I drawn to the wrong types?


MTO EXCLUSIVE: R&B Singer Keyshia Cole Turned 36 YEARS OLD Yesterday . . . To Celebrate . . She Released Some Pretty GRAPHIC PICS!!!
Congrats to the beautiful Keyshia Cole - who turned 36 years old yesterday. She's looking like a GROWN AZZ WOMAN now. We love it.
Hopefully the day was within incident. Just a few days before, Keyshia Cole got an earful from a cop who claimed she was making disparaging comments about him while he was just doing his job, according to TMZ.
The singer was leaving TAO in WeHo and her car was blocking traffic. A motorcycle cop laid on his horn to get Keyshia's driver to move, and that's when the name-calling began. The cop confronted Keyshia, who denied she said anything, but didn't deny something was said. That's when he gave her a piece of his mind.
