I always laugh when I think back to my first half marathon. I swore that I would never do that again. Well, here I am 30 half marathons later.
The Suwanee Gateway Half Marathon was 1/31 so you got to run "13.1 on 1.31" which was the theme of the even.
This was the inaugural year for the race, so I didn't have much knowledge about the even prior race day. When I arrived at the race, it was 27 degrees (a little chilly for us in Atlanta). I was very pleasantly surprised when packet pickup was located inside City Hall. An even better bonus was that you were welcome to hang out inside before the race and use the restrooms. WIN!
This week, in one of my Facebook runDisney running groups a fellow runner mentioned that he was running the same race this weekend. We chatted a bit during the week and decided to meet up and at least run a few of the miles together. It was a smaller race (cap of 450 runners), so finding Doug was not too hard.
The first few miles took us town the streets of Suwanee before we hit the greenway. Around mile 3, this sign was on a pole which made me think of Peggy Sue - the best runDisney chEARleader that we sadly lost about a week ago.
Around mile 4, another runner asked is she join us. OF COURSE! I quickly noticed that she (Kristen) was wearing her 2015 WDW Marathon shirt. Three runDisney runners together for 9 miles, this was going to be fun for sure. We all shared stories about our past runDisney races, future races, and costumes. The miles went by very quickly for sure. Here are some of our shenanigans from the morning.
It was a great race for sure. I really enjoyed running on the greenway for a majority of the race for something different. There were a few tough hills along the way, but that is standard for Atlanta races. I may have gone to the race alone, but I left with 2 new friends. I hope that they bring this race back next year, because I will definitely make sure to add it to my race schedule.
Tomorrow morning is supposed to be pretty in Atlanta, so I will be getting a few miles in tomorrow morning. There are only 20 days until the start of Princess Half Marathon weekend!
Question of the Day: Have you ever made new friends on a race course?
It is hard to believe that Princess Half Marathon weekend is quickly approaching. It seems like just yesterday we were frantically registering for our races (if you have ever ran a runDisney race you know what I am talking about). Now, all of our final preparations are coming together - a few more training runs, finishing up costumes, and printing up our waivers. Only 19 days until I arrive at Walt Disney World - not that I am counting or anything.
3 weeks from today Momma K, Pappa J, and I are running the Frozen 5K. The 5Ks at runDisney events are a little different than your typical 5K - there are no results since it is un-timed and you receive super cute bling. We like to use the 5K as a shakeout run and a chance to get some great pictures with characters. The Frozen 5K will start and finish in the EPCOT parking lot and the course leads you through the different countries of EPCOT's World Showcase.
In preparation for Princess Half Marathon weekend, I want to share some of my favorite race memories with you. In 2013, Momma K and I ran the Royal Family 5K as Tink which was our first costume race. This was also our very first runDisney race and was full of memories for sure.
Last year, Momma K was running her first half marathon at Princess (along with the Enchanted 10K the day before), so I ran the 5K solo. While I missed having her by my side, the best part about runDisney races is that you are never "alone." Snow White has always been a favorite princess of mine, so I decided to represent her for the Cinderella 5K.
Question of the day: What was your first runDisney race?
Time to polish your tiaras - it is less than 3 weeks until the start of the runDisney Princess Half Marathon Weekend. runDisney released a lot of highly anticipated information to their princesses and princes this week including waivers, corrals, and the event guide.
First up, your Glass Slipper Challenge corrals (these are your corrals for the half marathon only, your 10K corral will be printed on your bib so it is a surprise for now).
I was personally very excited for the event guide to be released. I love going to race expos and visiting with some of my favorite vendors for expo specials as well as looking for new products to try (after race day of course). The event guide has almost every bit of information that a runner or spectator needs for race weekend so check it out before heading to Walt Disney World in a few weeks.
Make sure to check out the runDisney Princess Half Marathon page for all of the most up to date information on race weekend!! In If you haven't noticed, I am a little excited for my 3rd Princess Half Marathon in 20 days!
Will I be seeing you at Princess Half Marathon weekend? If so, what event(s) are you running?
That is right, it is my birthday! I could tell you all of the crazy details of my birth, but I won't put you through that. Long story short, I was born a "gray lifeless" lump and spent 5 days in the NICUwith a collapsed lung. Thank you to the wonderful NICU team at Magee Women's Hospital in Pittsburgh, I have led a normal life. I always find it interesting that a baby born not breathing is now a long distance runner.
My day has started off pretty amazingly with texts, posts, and videos from friends and family wishing me a happy birthday. I came into work this morning to a desk covered in confetti, balloons, and signs thanks to my awesome co-workers.
In case you missed it, I will heading back to Pittsburgh in May to run the Pittsburgh 1/2 Marathon and 5K! I am excited for the wonderful opportunity to run through Pittsburgh twice during the weekend.
Question of the day: Have you traveled back to your hometown for a race?
My mom (Momma K), is currently training for her 3rd half marathon next month - Princess Half Marathon in Walt Disney World. We will actually run 3 race in 3 days while we are there: 5K on Friday, 10K on Saturday, and finally the half marathon on Sunday. The Hot Chocolate 15K served as a training run for Momma K and I was her pacer for the day.
Our friend Becky won a complimentary entry to the race a few days prior to race day which was very awesome. Becky just rocked her first full marathon earlier this month, so she wanted to just take it easy and have fun with us. Can you believe that Becky has never taken race selfies?!?!?! Yea....we fixed that for sure.
Due to road closures happening early, we got to Turner Field at "o'dark thirty" and just hung out in the car until closer to race time. Becky and I watched the runners arriving from the warmth of the car and even found a few friends.
It got closer to race time so we decided to brave the cold and met up with our friend Mandy. Thank you to Becky's mom for making us all matching glittery bows for race day! Then we headed to the corral to get ready to RUN FOR CHOCOLATE!
Today's race wasn't about time as much as it was about having fun. We took selfies, laughed for 9.3 miles and overall had an amazing time that even led up to Momma K getting a 15K PR! I will let the pictures tell the story though.
After the race we met up with our friends at the Marietta Diner for some brunch and laughs. It is a tradition for us to go to eat together after our races (typically pancakes).
Obviously, we had an amazing time at the Hot Chocolate 15K and cannot wait to run it again next year. Yes, it is hilly but where in Atlanta is is not? Thank you again to the wonderful coordinators for the Hot Chocolate 15K/5K as well as all of the wonderful volunteers!
Question of the day: What is your favorite post race treat?
I have ran the Hot Chocolate 15K/5K in 2013 (5K) and 2014 (15K) and have absolutely loved my experience. Who doesn't love an epic mash-up of running and chocolate?!?! The Hot Chocolate race series is held in a number of cities across the country and separates itself from other races by rewarding runners with a pretty "sweet" hoodie and a post race party featuring all types of chocolate treats at the finish line. 15K races are a rarity in the Atlanta area, so I couldn't pass up the opportunity to run 9.3 through the hills of Atlanta. To make it even better, 15K finishers will now receive a finisher medal and I am a total lover of bling (new addition for 2015).
The Hot Chocolate 15K/5K draws thousands of runners from the Atlanta area and beyond, so participants must have their packets picked up at an expo prior to race day. I am a total sucker for race expos - they are an awesome place to score some great deals on your favorite fitness products and also find new ones. I decided to meet up with some friends at the expo to make the experience even more fun. As you can tell, we did just that.
We had a great time wondering around the Georgia World Congress Center. We were able to check out some races that are coming to Atlanta this spring, got some great deals on race gear, and even planked around the expo.
While I love running large/high-profile races that offer a lot of frills, there is something great about running small local races. I enjoy running races that benefit organizations in my local community.
I ran the Wonderful Days of Winter 5K in Marietta, GA a few times previously. The race was originally conducted as a fundraiser for the Wonderful Days Pre-K to purchase buses to transport students. The race has continued to be a success over the past years that it continues to be a main fundraiser for the Pre-K.
My absolute favorite part of this race is that the age group awards are made by the students. For the past 3 years I have been striving to run fast enough to receive one of these hand-painted flowerpots. Last year I sat in 3rd place in my age group for the longest time, but right as they were about to start the awards a late time card was turned in which bumped me to 4th place. This year I finally did it! I earned my flower pot! I was so delighted to accept my flower pot from one of the students.
Question of the day: What is your most unique race award?
'Momma K' has always told me that whatever you do on New Year's Day is what you will do for the rest of the year. In keeping with that theory, it is only appropriate that I start each year with a race of course!
The past few years, I have ran the Atlanta Track Club Resolution Run 5K/10K. Due to location conflicts, the Atlanta Track Club had to make a decision to change the location and race distance of the Resolution Run for 2015. This year's race was now a 4 Miler and 1 Miler in Brookhaven. 4 Milers are pretty rare in Atlanta, so I was excited for the new distance.
Going into the race I knew what my goal time was, however I did not know what the course was going to be like. It can be a little scary going into a race "blind" and not knowing what to expect. I settled very quickly into my pace and just 'went.' This was the first race that I didn't look at my Garmin for my pace until I got to the finish line. When I finished, I could not believe that I just PR'ed by over 10 minutes! What an awesome way to start 2015!
This was a great race and I really hope that the Atlanta Track Club keeps the Resolution Run as a 4 Miler for 2016.
Question of the day: Have you ever participated in a resolution run?
I used to blog regularly a while ago, but life seemed to happen. I really missed blogging and sharing my adventures with my friends and followers. Over the past few days, a few friends and family members suggested that I start sharing my adventures on a blog again. I share a lot of my workouts and races via Instagram and Twitter, and not everyone uses those platforms so the blog is back!


I often get asked which tools I use for development or reviewing of existing codebases. This question is often hard to answer directly, as every situation is a bit different. However, I thought it would be worth trying to revisit the tooling topics to help others possibly improve their environments by knowing the tools I find helpful. This post will be the first of a limited number of occasional posts on tooling. With the primary focus of my topics still being with ASP.NET, MVC, and performance. If you find these helpful, though, I'd love to get some feedback.
In this post I am going to take a look into the product NDepend. Just before the release of their new 7.1 version I was invited to provide feedback on a few of their new features. As part of this process, I worked with the vendor to better understand their goals, and to help ensure that the results of its analysis are beneficial to developers.
It is easy to get overwhelmed with the functionality provided by this tool. I've used it myself for years, but it has been hard to quantify the direct value of the solution truly. With the most current release, they have added some great new functionality that helps to eliminate that situation. A few of my favorites are the Technical Debit Estimation, Code Rules, and visualization. As part of this post, I thought I'd share how I use NDepend to improve code quality, to monitor the health of our installations, and to help with the evaluation of an unknown code base.
Before I get into any of the specifics of how I use the tool, I think it is important to look at the concept of "Code Quality" as it relates to your particular project. We have some metrics that are often thrown around when it comes to the quality of a given code base. Things such as Cyclomatic Complexity, IL Nesting Depth, and even more granular into the specifics of the number of methods, the complexity of namespaces, and much more. Sometimes as developers we write things that "only need to work," and maintenance ability isn't a primary concern. For these, we might not be as concerned, however, for things that might have a future we want to be able to get a better glimpse into the codebase.
With that out of the way, I want to focus on a few key features of the most recent releases of NDepend and how I use them. I'll be including screenshots from an internal project of mine, FlightFiles that has been in development for around two years. The following are highlights of things that have been helpful for me; your results may differ.
This is a new feature to NDepend, and something that I like. After setting up your project and having NDepend analyze it, you are given a percentage value of "Technical Debt" based on the rules associated to the project. If you have performed multiple analysis operations, you can see the change in trend. This system classifies technical debt as code that is in violation of rules that are defined and evaluated for your current project.
Using the "Explore Debt" option you can drill into the specifics of what they consider to be debt. During this process, they provide an Issue count as well as an estimated time to clear the debt. In the example provided above they provided a 5d 4h estimate for resolution of the debt in our analyzed solution. In reviewing the recommendations, it appears that the provided debt estimates are realistic. I see two direct benefits of this functionality; first, you can get a quick glimpse of where your code stands against some best practices. For those that have used StyleCop, or FxCop in the past, think of those tools on steroids. Secondly, this tool allows you to confirm, as your product grows, that you are not adding to technical debt. I find this incredibly helpful with legacy code bases in situations where better patterns and practices are desired.
I'll spare you the detailed image for this project. However, another key feature is an ability to display a dependency graph of your project. This chart allows you to quickly identify the various dependencies that your application might have, as well as how deep the dependencies are. As many users look towards migration to ASP.NET Core and other cross-platform initiatives, this can be great.
If code quality is a key concern for you, and you want to have a great way to query and analyze your code for best practices this is a great tool for you. It takes time, and experience to master, but the new release provides metrics and information that make it easier to understand and work. Feel free to share your suggestions below.


The clients were a man, his wife, and their two children ––all born in the Middle East.
In 1987, they created a commercial enterprise in California and applied for the EB-5 Visa, but U.S. Immigration never granted them legal status based on their Green Card applications, creating a delay in immigration.
Though the family came to America legally and the children were raised here, they could not prove their status to the USCIS.
Without the travel card, they were restricted to what they could do, so the entire family was in limbo for 17 years.
Or travel outside the U.S.
These unfortunate circumstances resulting in them losing out on countless opportunities to work lawfully.
The USCIS's Attorney is the Department of Justice. The family tried to resolve their issues with other attorneys, but there was one approach they had not considered.
Warren Law Firm suggested that they sue the Department of Justice for a Green Card. We had successfully sued them the past, so we filed the Writ of Mandamus to compel the U.S. Government to process their Green Card application because of the 17-year delay that greatly affected their lives.
The sue Green Card process took about six months and was settled before Warren Law Firm went to court because the USCIS realized that they had created a wrongful situation.
"Now the children have found new careers," she added. "They've also pursued other opportunities and traveled freely knowing they could get back into the United States without any hassles.
In addition, the adult children were able to qualify to apply for U.S. citizenship – but they couldn't do that before because they were in bureaucratic limbo. Best of all, they didn't have to wait the traditional five years between getting the Green Card and applying for U.S. citizenship because of the government's 17-year delay immigration.
By creatively petitioning for a Writ of Mandamus, Warren Law Firm was successful in getting U.S. Immigration to avoid any further problems. The client's status was resolved by simply deploying a sue green card case.
Created by Congress in 1990 to stimulate the U.S. economy through job creation and capital investment by foreign investors, the U.S. Citizenship & Immigra-tion Services (USCIS) administers the EB-5 program.
Through it, investors may legally qualify for EB-5 classification by investing through businesses or regional centers designated by USCIS based on proposals for promoting economic growth.
On 9/8/2017, President Trump signed Public Law 115-56 to extend the Regional Center Program through 12/8/17.
The minimum qualifying investment for a EB-5 Visa in the United States is $1,000,000.

Lately, I've been feeling dark. Like I'm surrounded by darkness.
Sometimes, I get nervous about darkness. It's not often portrayed in a positive way. Often being seen as negative and depressing. And everything that I have been taught about darkness tells me that I should be nervous. That I should be weary of sitting in it for too long. Because it would eat me up and completely devour me and I wouldn't be able to dig my way out if I let myself fall too deep.
However, it's important to beware of drowning in your darkness. Be careful not to feed your darkness with more darkness. Feeding negative energy with negative energy will only result in an endless cycle of negative energy and that is never safe or productive.
There's a reason for all of this, I'm sure. If there's anything I've learned in my evolution, it's that there is learning and growth in everything.
With that being said, I ask myself: What is darkness?
To me, darkness is those moments, memories, and emotions that gives you pause and makes you question everything. Darkness is a wound that needs healing and is begging you for attention. In darkness, we find ourselves second guessing, doubting, and many times releasing or crying. It's not a place that usually leaves us smiling and feeling happy, but if we see it in a different way, I believe it could.
There are so many resources on how to find your way out of darkness. A simple google search will give you all the guidance you need on that subject. But what about finding your way through? I mean, how can we embrace and appreciate the light that we're all desperate to find if we haven't experienced the dark?
I believe that we are spirits living a human experience. And part of this human experience is going through the duality and contrast of life.
Low vibrational experiences and High vibrational experiences.
Where did this dark thought/feeling come from?
Does this belong to me? Or, am I carrying someone else's darkness?
Have I experienced this before? Is there a pattern?
How can I learn from this situation?
There is a reason for everything. When in the face of darkness, our first instinct is to run the other way. Darkness does not always feel great, but neither does recovering from a surgery. In both cases, we cannot recognize all of the healing taking place, but we will see it eventually.
How do you work with your darkness?
In this life, we're all go through trials and tribulations and some people may seem like it's a dark time for them. We're all been in the dark one time or another and it's ok to feel like we may be in the dark sometimes however we have to learn how to come up out that darkness. "It Don't Stay Dark Forever". On another note, I love the night time/dark time because that's when I can take a deep breath, relax get my mind right. During the day time, life moves so fast we really don't have time and energy for that deep breath time to work on ourselves, ect. So nighttime/dark time is my favorite part of the day.
You are an Awesome Inspirational Person. Keep Up The Good Work.
You are absolutely right. There is so much healing that happens when darkness comes. It's so much a part of life.
Thank you so much for always supporting and always connecting with me! I appreciate you!
You know, it's kind of difficult answering how I get out of my darkness because I don't know. I diverge my attention from that overbearing darkness but who's to say if I ever get out it? What if I'm still in that darkness? Is it healthy to live with that darkness still around you?
Greetings and welcome 🙂 I'm not sure if we every get out of the dark. I think one way we know is if we can go back to that dark place without feeling any negative side effects. That's when we truly heal from it. And if not, we know there's more work to be done. I think that it's always productive when you can dedicate time and energy to understanding your darkness and transforming it.


I have mixed emotions when it comes to the durability of the Old Skool's. Based on my experience, and the colourways that I owned, I've only had a durability issue with the colourways that have a white outsole. After a few months of owning my black and white colourway, I noticed that the outsole began to get worn down exposing the gum sole. But what really put the nail in the coffin for me, was the unstoppable fading from a pearl white to a dull flat white colour. However, the colourways I've had that didn't have a white outsole I felt have lasted longer. My opinion may be bias to the fact darker colours disguise strains and marks a lot easier but this can play a massive factor when making a decision to purchase. As one colourway could have you back to the store in 6 months time compared to other which could have you back in 12 months.
Whenever I see someone wearing the Vans Old Skool, two things always tend to happen. The first being, that I wish I had worn my own pair, me quietly saying to myself "I need to get myself a new pair". Despite me not finding the Old Skools' very versatile, the silhouette of the trainer is nothing but tempting and sleek, with its distinct features such as the flat foot design, the suede material on the forefront, the cushioning rubber sole, or it's most desired feature, the iconic Jazz Stripe. For me, the Vans Old Skool will always have a spot in my stackable sneaker box collection.
The price of the Old Skools can vary depending on the colourway or the collaboration, but typically they cost around £57-£60. From one aspect it can be great value for money if you focus on what you can do with the trainer when you think about the appeal and style of the trainer it can definitely persuade any tender individual to purchase a pair at the standard retail rate. But if you consider the number of times you have thought to buy a new pair based on the conditions of the old ones, you may straddle the fence on value. But the true value is in the eye of the beholder, as the feeling you get when you put them on and how they make you feel is priceless.
I find the Old Skools not that versatile just based on what I would wear with it. In my opinion, the ideal look I would do is slim fit Jeans, ripped or normal, that just finish above the ankles (my preference), with a simple t-shirt and a subtle bomber jacket. I think this combination really lets the Old Skool really allow to be noticed as a stand-alone piece. I think any other look can be quite risky.
The Vans Old Skool is undoubtedly a real pleasure to wear because they are wide and flat by design, anyone who may find it hard to pick trainers, the Old Skools are where you will find peace. Despite the inner sole of the trainer but being the softest on the market, but over time your feet does mould its own crevasse putting your feet in control of the comfort.


Have you been putting off your hearing test? Have you been wondering if you need hearing aids, only felt unwilling to pursue testing? Before you postpone that visit another time, you should know that there are some very compelling reasons to have your hearing tested.
If you need the help of an audiologist, your family has probably already noticed. They are used to raising their voice just to be heard, and if they were totally honest, they would tell you that they would like more than anything to be able to converse with you without yelling. Hearing aid help can allow life to return to normal in your home again.
There are so many things in life that you need to be able to hear for safety reasons. Verbal warnings from others can be missed when you cannot hear. Most alarm sirens are designed to be loud enough for all to hear, but some, like tornado sirens, may not be close enough for you to hear the full impact of the sound. Without the right hearing devices, those with hearing loss could miss out on these important warnings and be left vulnerable in the event of a storm.
Living with hearing loss is emotionally isolating.

9 Things You Didn't Know About Sperm..
We've all heard the rumors about sperm—pineapple, hot tubs, ladies who are allergic. But what's the truth? We consulted the experts for the facts:
01. It's Fast and Furious, Right from the Start...
Get this: The first moment of ejaculation contains the highest concentration of sperm, says board-certified urologist Harry Fisch, M.D., clinical professor of reproductive medicine at Weill Medical College of Cornell University.
02. It Sticks Around Longer Than You Think..
Sperm typically stays in your body for 48 hours after sex, however, "it can hang around for as long as five days to a week," depending on how "friendly" your cervical mucus is, says Fisch. Interestingly, cervical mucus protects sperm and helps it stay longer in the body around ovulation, when you're most fertile.
03. Lots of Sex or Masturbation Won't Lower a Guy's Sperm Count..
Don't worry, he doesn't have a limited supply of swimmers that he's going to use up, says reproductive endocrinologist Carrie Wambach, M.D., from Southern California Reproductive Center in Los Angeles. That said, frequent ejaculation may lower the volume, but if he generally has a normal sperm count this shouldn't make much of an impact, she says.

04. Temperature CAN Lower His Sperm Count..
Apparently, his semen fluctuates with the seasons. "Sperm count tends to be lowest in summer months and highest in winter months," says Fisch, because exposure to heat lessens sperm count. Overheating can include anything as seemingly innocuous as your man having a hot Macbook on his lap or as obvious as the two of you relaxing in a hot tub. "In a Jacuzzi 104 degrees and higher, sperm count can decrease dramatically," warns Fisch. In fact, this decrease can last for months after extreme overexposure to high temps. "I tell my patients, if you're trying to have kids, don't go into hot tubs." Of course, don't assume you're totally safe from getting pregnant after you take a dip, either. "It's not birth control," he laughs.
05. Pineapple Isn't Proven to Make Him Taste Better..
Unfortunately, scientists haven't tested this one out yet (can somebody get on that, though?). Semen does contain fructose (naturally occurring sugar), giving it a slightly sweet taste, but there's never been a real study on the connection between foods a guy eats and the taste of his swimmers, says Fisch. However, this rumor has a ton of anecdotal evidence, so if it seems to work for your partner, we say go ahead and grab the pineapple.
06. Male and Female Sperm are Created Equal..
Sperm either have the X or Y chromosome, but their chances of making it don't differ, says Fisch. The idea that one type is more resilient or swims faster than the other is just a myth.

07. It's Super Rare to Be Allergic to Sperm..
We've all heard that women can be allergic to sperm, causing inflammation or redness, but both Fisch and Wambach say that it's very, very rare to be allergic. "I'd look to other factors, like a vaginal infection, first," says Fisch. There has also been one study on a sexually transmitted allergy to Brazil nuts (where a woman had an allergic reaction to her partner's sperm after he ate the nuts). But again, cases like this are extremely rare. In the unusual case you are diagnosed as allergic, wearing a condom can prevent irritation.
08. Sperm Has a Pretty Intense Journey Before the Grand Finale..
It takes about two and a half months to prep all the sperm expelled in the average ejaculation. It initially forms in the testicles then moves up to the epididymis. Then fully formed sperm travels through the vas deferens and swings by the seminal vesicles where it mixes with a fluid to form semen. Finally, the prostate adds the last little bit of fluid before ejaculation.
09. Your Guy's Health Affects His Sperm..
"Sperm may be healthier for men under 40," says Wambach. "And they'll definitely be healthier in men who avoid things like smoking, a high-fat diet, and environmental toxins." So if you're considering starting or expanding your family, keep that in mind.

Jean (Coulter) Rosow is a fine and commercial artist, known for her depictions of San Antonio landmarks and events. Originally from La Grange, Illinois, Coulter marriage David Frank Rosow from San Antonio in 1966. As early as 1973, she was commissioned to sketch the Koehler House for the San Antonio Art League, and illustrated "Out of Sight San Antonio," a book of notable structures with architect Ron Bechtol in 1979. By the early 1980s she was a requested graphic artist, with drawings regularly appearing the in the San Antonio Express News. She held her first independent exhibition 1983. As a member of many clubs and organizations, her work was often featured as the visual representation of such organizations and their associated events and publications, including logos, cookbooks, calendars, and posters. In 1992 she was selected to design the annual Fiesta poster. Her main medium throughout this period was working in pen, ink, and watercolor. Though, in 1996 her identifiable style was displayed across VIA transportation buses as transitory murals around town.
In 1987 Trinity University commissioned Rosow to do a series of drawings of campus buildings and scenes. Her illustrations were thus used in various print material including courses of study bulletins, brochures, and the Trinity University Women's Club 1996 cookbook.

That's your job | Urbana Boomerangs Bar & Grill For Sale | Restaurants
East Urbana's Boomerangs Bar & Grill is for sale.
Co-owner Tom Grassman, also a local musician, remains in the music business, but as for the bar and grill at 1309 E. Washington St., he said it's "moving on."
Business is doing well, Grassman said, and he expects if someone buys it, "it will stay in business for a long time."
He and his wife, Christy, bought Boomerangs in 2011.
According to the Coldwell Banker Commercial Devonshire Realty sales listing, the price is $625,000.
From the listing: "This well-established neighborhood watering hole and grill has been in operation for decades, and the current ownership is considering its next business venture. Current ownership has established the business as a live music hotspot in Champaign-Urbana with great food specials including Wing Wednesday and Fish Fry Friday."
Plans for a new Octapharma plasma collection center in Urbana are officially off the table, at least for the planned location in the former Save-A-Lot grocery building at 220 N. Broadway Ave.
The company withdrew both its request for a special use permit and its appeal of a decision made by City Administrator Kevin Garcia, according to City Planner Kat Trotter.
Asked last week about its future plans for a plasma center in the area, the company sent the following statement:
"Octapharma Plasma is constantly looking to expand into attractive communities, such as Urbana, Illinois, as the demand for plasma increases. Despite our desire to grow and become part of certain communities, sometimes there are circumstances that prevent us from doing so. We plan to continue to look for locations in this area and other U.S. markets."
Kerry Klish, director of facilities for Octapharma, told the Urbana City Council over the summer that the company planned to have a 10-year lease on the former Save-A-Lot space and planned to invest about $1.5 million in remodeling the the space and another $1 million for furnishings and equipment.
A new doctor in the Savoy
OSF HealthCare has a new primary care physician at its OSF Medical Group offices at 501 N. Dunlap Ave., Savoy.
Dr. Karen Whitehorn holds her medical degree from Southern Illinois University School of Medicine and completed her internal medicine residency at Mercy Hospital and Medical Center, Chicago.
Appointments can be made with her by calling 217-560-6300, according to OSF.
To the store
The Mistletoe Market, featuring more than 60 vendors, appears at two locations in Champaign-Urbana.
The market will be at Lincoln Square in Urbana from 10am to 5pm on December 3rd and at The Venue CU, 51 E. Main St., C, from 11am to 5pm on December 18th.
The market, hosted by NORDEN German Design Studio and Shop, has partnered with the Champaign Center Partnership and 40 North to bring the event to downtown Champaign.
Along with merchandise for sale in Champaign, there will be carriage rides from noon to 4 p.m., and Santa will make an appearance from 2-3 p.m.
The Urbana event will feature glasses of mulled wine, winter decorations and holiday music to accompany a selection of goods from local artisans.
Kol becomes sunny
The city of Champaign issued a $400,000 building permit for a rooftop solar system at the Kohl's store in Champaign.
A year ago, the chain announced it was starting a program to equip 15 of its Arizona and Illinois store rooftops with solar arrays in 2022, bringing the total to 178 locations.
The company said the 15 new projects will increase Kohl's installed solar capacity by 10.4 percent to a total of 56.97 megawatts.
Getting a promotion
OSF HealthCare announced Wednesday that it will raise the minimum hourly wage for its employees from $15 to $16, effective Sunday — and to $18.08 for employees in the Chicago metro area.
Along with minimum wage employees, other OSF employees will receive raises within eligible job classifications, the Peoria-based system said.
OSF officials said the raises will allow the system to attract and retain employees and meet staffing needs in critical health care positions.
"OSF knows that our mission partners have been through a lot over the past two years during the pandemic, combined with the increasing pressures of inflation," said Shelley Nguyen, OSF's chief human resources officer.
The increases are expected to have a positive annual economic impact of $13 million on the communities served by OSF.
Unemployment is falling again
Illinois' October unemployment rate of 4.3 percent represented a decline of 0.5 percentage points from the October 2021 level of 4.8 percent, the Illinois Department of Employment Security reported.
Here's how county rates changed in October compared to the same month a year earlier:
Champaign County: down 0.1 percentage point to 3.7 percent.
Douglas County: No change at 3 percent.
Ford County: down 0.1 percentage point to 3.4 percent.
Piatt County: Unchanged at 3 percent.
Vermilion County: Down 0.2 percentage points to 5.1 percent.
The Champaign-Urbana metro area, which includes Champaign, Piatt and Ford counties, had 500 more non-agricultural jobs in October than in October 2021, while the Danville/Vermilion County metro area grew by 800 jobs, according to the state agency .

Aboriginal communities in Canada are passionate about their right to grow, use, and sell tobacco as a way of life and a means to their livelihood. No wonder then that last fall in a Senate committee room in Ottawa a First Nations delegation expressed outrage about the legislative process used to bring about the anti-contraband amendment to the Criminal Code, Bill C-10. They claimed, rightly, that the process did not include proper consultation with Canada's Aboriginal communities. The outrage was echoed along the 401 highway from Toronto to Ottawa as billboards exhorted the politicians to "Kill Bill C-10".
Bill C-10, however, is not the problem. It is not intended to target native groups at all. It is, instead, intended to target the 175 known criminal groups that use the sale of contraband tobacco to fuel criminal operations that threaten public safety and undermine provincial tax bases. To date, these criminal networks have looked on unstamped tobacco products – regardless of whether they come from reserves or elsewhere – as a rich source of revenue with little risk of attention from law enforcement.
Ironically, to date, most provincial governments have been complicit in propagating criminal activity as they raise tobacco taxes willy-nilly and ignore the consequences to public safety. Inevitably, history in Canada has shown that there is a price point for tobacco products that is super sensitive to illicit market forces. When governments try to take in revenue through "sin tax" hikes, criminal organizations are ready to jump in and supply the black market with cheap cigarettes.
Aboriginal communities across Canada have developed the capacity to compete with the legitimate cigarette industry both in terms of cigarette materials and production, if not in quality control. Even if they pay four or five times the price for raw leaf tobacco that legitimate industry pays, the final retail price to the consumer can be a fraction of the cost of stamped tobacco products where government taxes have been paid.
The diversion of raw leaf tobacco is ultimately an activity that attracts and sustains the involvement of organized crime. This reality is the main rationale behind to recent passage of Bill C-10. So, while the criminal prohibitions are now in place through that federal legislation, the supply side of the problem still needs to be fixed. In Southern Ontario, where virtually all Canadian tobacco crops are located, the 240 or so farmers growing tobacco can't be trusted to keep from diverting raw leaf to illegal manufacturers.
Recent regulations developed by the Ontario Ministry of Finance promise to effectively tighten up the controls around the management of tobacco production and distribution. However, upon first read of this legislation it clearly lacking in effectiveness and significantly less in authoritativeness than the now defunct Ontario Flue-Cured Tobacco Growers' Marketing Board. Furthermore, the big question is whether the province will back up the regulations with the human, technological, and financial resources needed to give effect to the rules and thereby stop fuelling organized crime through diverted tobacco. We'll keep an eye on that one!
Now it is time to finally reconcile with the Aboriginal groups in Canada. Done properly, the right deal with First Nations will put the final nail in the contraband tobacco crime spree that has been going on for years. No less important is the fact that a new deal with Aboriginals has the potential to help correct a national embarrassment. Many consider it a blight on our national identity that while the large majority of Aboriginals live in abject poverty, a handful live in the midst of incredible wealth. As you drive through the 6 Nations Reserve in Ontario, the stark contrast of run down residences next to a sprawling estates with manicured lawns and evident opulence underlines the disparity between the ordinary Band member and the kingpins of the illicit tobacco trade.
The reconciliation with Aboriginal groups in Canada requires a multi-faceted approach but it can clearly begin with a move to eliminate the tobacco sourcing element that inspires criminal networks to seek Aboriginal collusion in tobacco diversion schemes.
The key to a workable solution is to empower First Nations communities to procure raw leaf tobacco legitimately through a licensed supply chain and then add a tax to the end product that can be used by the community to improve the lot of all Band members, not just the self-chosen few who cream the profits and leave the rest of the community to continue to live in squalor.
Canada needs to come up with a national policy, adopted in each of the provinces, that emulates to developments that have been achieved in New Brunswick in recent years. Seven years ago New Brunswick adopted legislation that included permitting the sale of tobacco on reserves to non-native as well as native shoppers, tax exemptions for native sellers and native management retention of the lion's share of all tobacco revenue.
The outcome of this policy move has had some very positive results including reducing the illicit manufacturing of cigarettes on reserve to meet authorized sales levels only with no capacity to supply the illegal market. Also, it has enabled compliance with the pending provisions of Bill C-10 relative to the transportation of tobacco products. Best of all, perhaps, is that the New Brunswick law provides a model for the other Canadian provinces and territories. Hopefully the results in New Brunswick, particularly in the public safety arena, will provide the impetus for the rest of the country.
Ontario may be the most difficult province to convince to adopt the New Brunswick model. Ontario has become addicted to the tax revenues derived from tobacco sales and have time and again failed to address the public safety threats associated with the illicit trade in tobacco. The result has been that the reserves have become conduits and wholesale locations for organized crime distribution into major population centers.
Should Ontario adopt a model such as that of New Brunswick, the results should be far reaching and meaningful for the cause of Canadian Aboriginal peace and prosperity. The benefits of a New Brunswick style arrangement with First Nations should result in reducing the involvement of Organized Crime, building transparency and accountability between the Province and the reserves, providing much needed money to support public health and well-being on the reserves, and, it is a sustainable model for future generations.

I've noticed quite a few 'knock ons' saved by the backward flick pass, just like this one in recent international matches and the ref just plays on. Has anything changed since the the Parks incident or is everyone else just ignoring it?

Q: How to toggle the auto-hiding of the taskbar in Cinnamon? I'm looking for a way to quickly toggle the autohide of the taskbar in Cinnamon (running on a netbook).
Would it be possible to do it either directly using a shortcut, or maybe scripting and then keybinding it?

A: Copy and paste following script in gedit:
#!/bin/bash
state=$(gsettings get org.cinnamon panels-autohide)
if [[ $state = "['1:true', '2:false']" ]]; then
    gsettings set org.cinnamon panels-autohide "['1:false', '2:true']"
else
    gsettings set org.cinnamon panels-autohide "['1:true', '2:false']"
fi

... and save as panel-autohide.sh in your home directory.
Then open System Settings -> Keyboard -> Keyboard shortcuts -> Custom shortcuts.
Click on Add custom shortcut. Fill the Name section with Toggle Panel Autohide. In Command section, browse and select panel-autohide.sh.
Under "Keyboard bindings" double click on unassigned, and press keyboard shortcut for this command. I use Ctrl + F12 as keyboard shortcut.

A: I use Cinnamon 2.0 and it has this feature by default.
System Settings -> Panel (for some reason I have 2 version of System settings in my App launcher. I used the first one to get the Advanced Mode)

Check Auto-hide panel

Hope it helps !

A: you can look at this page https://github.com/linuxmint/Cinnamon/issues/1754
see the comments given by askun

Just in case you weren't aware, you can toggle the system tray
  completely off in Cinnamon Settings > Applets. This doesn't offer the
  more finite control over individual applications like you are
  requesting, though, just "all on" or "all off" as far as I can tell...

Picture Mass Effect in your mind. Got it? Okay, so it seems like a safe bet that what you're currently imagining is either EA's default iteration of Commander Shepard (seen glaring above) or your own personalized version of the character. One way or another, you're imagining the protagonist of the Mass Effect series to date, and why shouldn't you? In a franchise full of weird aliens and space-age technology, Shepard has always been the most relatable, reliable, human element of BioWare's series.
Unfortunately, it seems that with the release of the Wii U iteration of Mass Effect 3 on November 18, Commander Shepard will have led his last mission to the stars. According to BioWare, the next Mass Effect game will feature an entirely new protagonist.
Fabrice Condominas, a producer at BioWare Montreal, was recently asked by VG247 where the developer goes next with the Mass Effect series. Obviously it's a very successful money-making franchise, so neither BioWare nor publisher EA would want to see it just drop off the radar completely, right? While the developer may not have solid plans in place for new Mass Effect game, Condominas did offer a glimpse at what the firm is currently thinking.
"So first, we don't want to make 'Shepard 2′, or Mass Effect 4 with like, 'Oh there's no more Shepard but you're a soldier in the universe'. So this will be a very, very different context for sure, and nothing has been decided on the rest," he adds.
Alright, so BioWare is in the very early stages of production on this thing — specifically, the studio is still brain-storming ideas — but as of yet has not decided on who might be the lead character for the next Mass Effect title. That's to be expected, but more crucially it offers fans a window of opportunity to speculate on who/what should be the hero of the next game.
Obviously there are myriad reasons to make the next Mass Effect lead a human. Familiarity is a useful trait in the exotic Mass Effect universe, and we doubt that many players would be able to feel much emotional attachment to a creepy, insectoid alien. That said, we're growing increasingly excited about the possibility that the next Mass Effect game might star an extraterrestrial. Sure, the writers would have to do a bit more work to convey emotional resonance, and the game's lack of a recognizable human star might impact its sales, but think of how cool it would be to explore the complex alien cultures Mass Effect's creators have built over the past decade as one of the aliens themselves.
Regardless of which direction BioWare takes with this hypothetical game, it is still very hypothetical. You wont likely see a new Mass Effect game for the next few years, so try not to get too involved in planning this thing out within your own minds. We'll let you know when/if BioWare opts to release further details on this title.

Washington D.C., Jan 3, 2019 / 12:00 pm (CNA).- Pope Francis has written to the bishops of the United States calling for a "change of mindset" to restore the Church's credibility and trust among the faithful.
"Clearly a living fabric has come undone, and we, like weavers, are called to repair it," the pope wrote in a letter to the American bishops, dated Jan 1 and released Thursday by the U.S. bishops' conference.
This repair process must involve a "change of mindset" by bishops in relation to prayer, power, exercising authority, and handling money, he explained, with the change rooted in an acknowledgment of the "sinfulness and limitations" which necessitate God's grace.
The letter was sent ahead of the U.S. bishops' weeklong retreat at Mundelein Seminary, in the Archdiocese of Chicago. The retreat was proposed by the pope in October as an opportunity for them to reflect and pray after a year of scandals which have rocked the Church in the U.S. and worldwide.
Following months of scandals, including the allegations against former cardinal Theodore McCarrick and the release of the Pennsylvania grand jury report, American bishops met in November for their annual general assembly in Baltimore, at which bishops vocally disagreed with one another on the root causes of the crisis facing the Church, and on the best means of addressing it.
A unified body of bishops, he said, would be helpful in regaining this credibility.
"Credibility will be the fruit of a united body, that, while acknowledging its sinfulness and limitations, is at the same time capable of preaching the need for conversion," he said.
Francis also condemned what he called a sense of "division and dispersion" among the communion of bishops that has erupted in the wake of abuse allegations. This discord, the pope said, goes beyond the typical disagreements bound to arise among any group of people and comes from "the enemy of human nature" taking advantage of current crises to further divide the Church.
The paramount task facing the American bishops, Francis said, is to create "a shared spirit of discernment" leading to true communion, without giving in to the "relative calm" of a sterile compromise or a vote with winners and losers.
The pope said that the bishops must abandon the "modus operandi of disparaging, discrediting, playing the victim or the scold in our relationships," and instead should focus their attention on "the gentle breeze that the Gospel alone can offer." Instead, he said, the bishops should work to avoid "gossip and slander" and promote dialogue, discussion and discernment among one another.
The pope warned that while many responses were being considered by the bishops, they must be cautious to avoid those that do not necessarily align with the "flavour" of the Gospel.


GMH Recycling supplies steel plants and foundries of GMH Gruppe, as well as national and international customers, with high-quality recycling steel – reliably processed by experts. This enables scrap steel to be used as an important secondary raw material for new products and materials.
GMH Recycling offers an extensive portfolio of scrap processing, including all related services, and ranging from scrap steel via special scrap material to steel plant by-products. Our expertise provides an assurance for the high quality of our products as well as the efficiency of our processes. In the recycling process we always recondition the raw materials using the best technology available, according to a procedure which is reliable, sustainable and efficient.
At our locations in Osnabrück, Dortmund, Mülheim/Ruhr and Krefeld we process large-volume materials quickly and efficiently. Casting scrap as well as steel and raw iron are effectively crushed by our scrap breakers. In the case of iron parts we use our blasting chamber. After being compacted in the presses, the recycled scrap leaves our site in the form of easily transportable packages or briquets.
GMH Recycling also operates three combustion chambers with a state-of-the-art waste air purification plant for handling large-volume scrap. This is where heavy scrap is broken down into appropriate batch sizes using scrapping furnaces. By using modern filter technology, we can ensure that no dust is emitted into the environment. Grinding sludges undergo a reconditioning process in the briquetting pressr so that – mixed with turning chips and pressed into cylindrical briquets under high pressure, they can subsequently be used as a valuable secondary raw material. Our separation plants extract valuable metals and alloys such as copper, brass, aluminium and zinc from the waste. In aluminium smelters and other smelting systems they are subsequently reconditioned into valuable primary products for use in the automotive industry and mechanical engineering.
As a company of the steel production business unit, we are very aware of our responsibility towards the environment and climate. Which is why, as all companies of GMH Gruppe, we are audited and certified in accordance with DIN ISO 14001. We invest in equipment such as our waste treatment plants, separator systems or emulsion separation facilities and store our output material safely and correctly. Our current standards therefore exceed the statutory requirements - which means that we will still comply with regulations in the future.


The U.S. Government takes fraud and waste seriously. Therefore, there are a number of laws designed to protect and reward whistleblowers who stop wrongdoing against the government and the American people. Here are some of those laws and the types of cases that they cover.
Pipeline Safety Act: Environmental and safety violations concerning oil or gas pipelines.
These are just some of the laws that protect and reward American whistleblowers. U.S. whistleblowers are also protected under many anti-discrimination, employment and environmental laws. If you have a question about whistleblower law or a potential whistleblower case, please contact Petrelli Law at 800-432-9461 to schedule a free consultation. An attorney will be happy to answer your questions. There is no obligation and anything you say will be kept confidential.


In this essay, the writer will first show the essentials of Yama and Niyama and its relation to Yoga, and will conclude with the practical aspect of how these two ?abstinences?, has affected his daily life and Yoga practice.
Asana – bodily postures. They combine a series of exhaustive exercises, widely known in the West as Hatha Yoga, for the health and discipline of the physical. They are also useful for the movement of the life-force and the attainment of the Higher Yoga.
Pranayama – control of the life-force. It involves the inhaling, retention and exhaling of breath.
Dharana – concentration – control of or steadying of the mind on a particular object to the exclusion of everything else.
Dhyana – the gazing or fixing of the mind on a Higher Consciousness. Sri Chinmoy, in his book The Silent teaching, 1985, refers to it as conscious self-expansion?.?silence, energizing and fulfilling?the eloquent expression of the inexpressible?
Yoga means to yoke, to bring together, and to merge. Yoga is union with God – the union of the individual self with the transcendental Self (Sri Chinmoy: Yoga and the Spiritual Life).
Yama and Niyama are the ?do?s? and ?don?ts or ethical principles of Yoga, sometimes likened to the Ten Commandments or the Sermon on the Mount. Even ?Effort and Relaxation.? The two, being so closely related, are sometimes described as one, but Yama, nevertheless, is the first step.
Satya – Non-lying or truthfulness – to be true to oneself, ones thoughts, words and actions should agree. However, according to Blake the poet or Sri Ramakrishna, the Great spiritual Master of India, one should never tell a cruel truth.
Asteya – Non-stealing or honesty – desire or craving is said to be the root cause of stealing and dishonesty. When one is free of the yearning for material objects or gains, the attraction to gaining objects through immoral means will cease.
Bramacharya – Non-sensuality, continence – this is freedom from lust in thought, word or deed. (Swami Sivananda: Gospel of Divine Life, 1985) It includes freedom from physical as well as mental pleasures. Even in the dream state. Here Yoga postures such as Sirshasana and also Sattvic (wholesome) food can help a great deal. One also needs to be careful with immoral company and to be inwardly vigilante at all times. (Prabhavananda Swami: Narada?s way of Divine love, 1972).
Aparigraha – non-greed – freedom from covetousness and possession beyond one?s needs. These include coveting something belonging to someone else. Non-greed allows one to be free from the fear of loss, hatred & anger towards what other's have, or attachment and disappointment when things are lost or unattainable. By the practice of Aparigraha one is aided in the practice of Ahimsa (non-killing), Satya (truthfulness), and Asteya (non-stealing).
The purpose of these ?abstinences? is to seek perfection, following the Yama?s more closely day by day. They lessen desires and produces calm, enabling one to devote oneself to the Higher goal of Yoga.
Niyama – observances – it consists of purity, both internal and external (Shaucha), contentment (Santosha), the practice of austerity (Tapas), the study and learning of spiritual books (Swadhyaya), and self-surrender to God (Atmanivedana).
Saucha – purity – both external and internal. For internal cleansing one should look to having a right diet eating Sattvic (pure) foods that are conducive to meditation and comes from pure sources. The best foods to eat are ones that come from organic sources grown with respect for the earth and the environment. Cleanliness will assist the Prana or life energy carried through the body.
Santosha – contentment or peacefulness – generating and releasing hidden energy of our bodies, brings new light to every cell. The more light we bring into the body, into the cells, the more we shall experience Santosha. An inner peace and contentment shall overcome us and fill us with joy and happiness. This peacefulness generally remains irrespective of the state of the world.
Tapas – spiritual discipline – Tapas can be likened to Karma-yoga, the yoga of action, because it requires us to act to keep each part of the body and mind clean and pure. It also requires discipline, steadfastness and a burning intensity for Truth.
Swadhyaya – self-study or spiritual study.
Atmanirvedana – self-surrender or offering of one?s life to God. This is the Highest Goal. See Sri Chinmoy?s ?Beyond Within? One should be surrendered totally and unconditionally to the Will of the Supreme. It is initially difficult and requires practice, faith, all the above principles plus the company of a realised Soul or God?s Grace.
Having established what Yoga is, we see that Yama and Niyama as expounded by Patanjali, are really steps to discover one?s true nature. It would appear from the teachings, (Narada Bhakti Sutras??that without Yama and Niyama there is no happiness. Without a code for moral and spiritual values, there is only chaos in life. Nevertheless, a life of wholesome thoughts, study, discipline and exercise, accompanied by Dharana (concentration) and Dhyana (meditation) can and will one day certainly take us to the yogic goal of self-realisation – total and unconditional surrender to the Will of the Supreme.
How Yama and Niyama has Helped me.
Yama and Niyama have put me on the path to a greater awareness of the harmony of living and life?s true purpose. Looking at the Yama?s, especially Ahimsa, has helped me to practice non-violence to all beings. While I still stumble from time to time, my sense of the principles of Patanjali, has deepened my study and sharpened my practice. Naturally this has reflected in my feeling calmer and with a greater acceptance of life here and now.
I feel an acute awareness of the environment and the sacredness of life, and I am less likely to abuse creatures and higher animals. I am now inclined to devote myself to study and spiritual discipline, and also to improve my health so that I can be a better person and instrument for a Higher cause. I move forward positively towards the path of self-restraint.
I strive to be aware of Truth in my Practice, and as best as I can, minimise the hurt that I cause others in my words, thought and deeds. Each Entity is a part of the life energy of Being, and as such, is important to me.
Overall, I eat healthier, encourage positive lifestyles, avoid the negatives of the mundane, and by God?s grace, aim to re-discover life?s true purpose.

Q: Netfilter string module example usage Can anybody point me to some examples in using the xt_string module with netfilter or provide a example.
What I am trying to do is to write netfilter module that will drop packets that contain a certain string in the skb->data field.
I initially tried simply strnstr(skb->data, "mystring", strlen("mystring")) but this seem to be incorrect approach to this problem (and it does not seem to be working as i dont see any packets being dropped).
Thanks in advance

A: If you mean using iptables string match in user-space, here is one example:
iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 80 -m string --string "domain.com" --algo kmp -j DROP

Or if you mean in kernel space, you can use textsearch API which provides KMP/BM/FSM algorithms, the following example is from kernel source lib/textsearch.c:
int pos;
struct ts_config *conf;
struct ts_state state;
const char *pattern = "chicken";
const char *example = "We dance the funky chicken";
conf = textsearch_prepare("kmp", pattern, strlen(pattern),
                             GFP_KERNEL, TS_AUTOLOAD);
if (IS_ERR(conf)) {
    err = PTR_ERR(conf);
    goto errout;
}
pos = textsearch_find_continuous(conf, &state, example, strlen(example));
if (pos != UINT_MAX)
    panic("Oh my god, dancing chickens at %d\n", pos);
textsearch_destroy(conf);

A: what you are looking for may be this one, "skb_find_text".
It uses the infra in linux mentioned by @Cong Wang.
You can also find some examples in the kernel codes.

A: here after a source code of netfilter. it's a module to drop received ICMP ECHO
you can use this code to help you to develop your module. You have just to get data from skb and then check it.
