The great architect of this beautiful landscape is moving and falling water, and to this builder and remover of the landscape can be attributed the deep canyons of the region. The violence and power of moving water is often forcefully demonstrated during a summer thunderstorm. One of the writer's earliest and most vivid recollections of travel in this area stems from a summer visit to Zion Canyon, when he arrived in the midst of a cloudburst. The violence of the storm was enough to justify repetition of Chicken Little's oft-quoted exclamation: "The sky is falling!" I still have a vivid mental picture of the brown torrent that was the Virgin River, gnawing great chunks from its banks, ripping out trees, carrying debris before it in the surging current. After the climax of the storm passed, the raging water quickly abated, and within a few hours the brown flood disappeared, to be replaced by the river's normally quiet murmurings.
Even during its quieter periods, however, the river is actively working on the confines of its bed. The low resistance of sandstone to erosion, combined with the steep gradients of the streams in this region, result in a rapid deepening of the stream canyons. Because of these two factors, the stream plays a lesser part in the process of widening the canyon. Seepage of ground water, direct action of rain water, and frosts produce the curves and crenelations that add so much to the sculptured beauty of the canyon walls.
The east side of Zion National Park displays progressive steps in the erosion cycle. In the beginning of this cycle, the land is relatively flat, illustrated by the present tops of plateaus. Where a stream gathers its waters from a small area, the stream remains small, probably runs only in response to rainfall, and manages to cut only a small canyon. The east Zion area contains many examples of this phenomenon; they are within walking distance of the highway, and can be more closely studied. In many respects these small streams are miniatures of the larger ones. They demonstrate processes and effects similar to those evidenced on a larger scale by their bigger brothers.
Another most interesting feature of the Zion region is the frequent occurrence of rock pedestals on the broad stone pavements near the highway. A closer examination of such pedestals reveals that they are capped by a material differing from the soft sandstone of the base; a layer of iron oxide that geologists believe was intruded, in solution into the sandstone. Since this material is harder, and therefore more resistant to erosive forces, it has protected the softer material directly beneath it while the surrounding material was being eroded away. So, when you look at these pedestals, you are really seeing a remnant of the layers of stone that formerly covered the presently exposed surface. The balance of this material has been carried away, either as wind-borne sand, or by stream action, to be deposited as part of a sandbar somewhere downstream. Or, perhaps it will find its way eventually to the sea, to be laid down as part of a delta at the Colorado River's mouth.
In these pedestals, as in the rest of the landscape, can be read one of the grand lessons of geology—that Nature is not at rest, but is ever active, ever changing the face of the Earth; that even the stones, cold and dead to our eyes, have their own inner life and being. In the slow passage of geologic time, the surface we look at today will pass away to join its predecessors, each succeeding layer following in its turn, until Nature decrees a major change—such as has occurred we know not how many times past—to commence the cycle again at what men are pleased to call the beginning.
From Wikipedia: American Nature Association, headquartered in Baltimore, Maryland, was the publisher of Nature Magazine from 1923 to 1959; and a discount reseller of natural science books for its members. It was founded by Arthur Newton Pack and his father, Charles. Nature Magazine was an "illustrated monthly with popular articles about nature" and later, the "interpreter of the great outdoors." A May 1924 review of the organization and its magazine, written by Carroll Lane Fenton and published in American Midland Naturalist called the magazine "excellent" with "abundant pictures, admirably printed"; and said it was a "highly worth while publication" that deserves a wide circulation among town and school libraries." Natural History magazine absorbed Nature Magazine in January 1960.
Wall Of Hidden Canyon, Zion National Park, Utah, copyright 1977 by Philip Hyde.
To a casual tourist, the eastern portion of Zion National Park in Utah may be just an area through which to pass quickly on the way to the spectacularly beautiful, pink and white walled Zion Canyon on the Virgin River. It is this Zion Canyon that gives its name to the National Park. A closer look along the way, however, reveals many highly interesting facts and features. If the visitor is interested in poking a bit beneath the surface appearances of the landscape, this country will come alive for him. Here are all the ingredients that went into the making of the more showy Virgin River canyon, but in this eastern area it is possible to examine them more intimately.
This part of the country is reached on Utah State Highway 15, from the west by way of Zion Canyon, or from the east from Mt. Carmel Junction. The traveler from the east will find the formations on the way to Zion National Park from either Bryce Canyon National Park, on the north, or Grand Canyon National Park, over the Arizona line to the south. In a region so abundant with colorful natural wonders, this area fully deserves its status as part of one of the great National Parks established to protect these natural wonders.
If you come west from the Mt. Carmel Junction, into Zion National Park, you will emerge gently into this colorfully carved introduction through Zion Canyon. The highway from the junction runs roughly west, climbing first over a series of plateau-ridges, then, near the entrance checking station at the Park boundary, it begins to descend gradually. Almost before you become aware of it, small canyons are born and mature rapidly on either side of the highway. By the time you reach the east portal of the Zion-Mt. Carmel tunnel the canyon that the highway has rough paralleled has become a vertically walled abyss. Intermingled with the deepening system of canyons that form the drainage of the usually dry plateau are great, gradually sloping, stratified sandstone pavements, with their delicately eroded concentric curves that are the delight of photographers and painters in search of interesting forms and color. The formation exposed in this area is the same Navajo Sandstone that forms the top layers of the cliffs and towers of Zion Canyon. Seen in these more intimate and accessible surroundings, the erosion sculptures fashioned by the artful fingers of wind and water can be more closely appreciated.
In the washes at the feet of these stone pavements, in the proper season, are many and varied wildflowers and plants. If your visit occurs during early summer, you may be rewarded by the sight of the bright-plumed spikes of yucca, or clumps of the brilliant orange butterfly milkweed. The sharp, linear, spike-like forms of the yuccas are in pleasing contrast to the swirling curves of the stratified rocks.
Probably the landmark that will be first remembered by most visitors to Zion National Park from the East is the pale pyramid of Checkerboard Mesa, whose bulk is framed in one's windshield shortly after leaving the checking station. This is a well-known example of what geologists call "cross-bedding," and tells us that this region, in a remote period of earth-history, was a dry, sandy, desert-like place. Only the caprice of desert winds, constantly shifting loose sand, could produce the intricate layered patterns as we see them today, solidified into rock. This rock, however, is relatively soft, and is highly susceptible to the sculpturing forces of erosion that patiently pluck it away, grain by grain.
Grass On Tarn, Sierra Nevada High Country, Kings Canyon National Park, California, 1951 by Philip Hyde. This was one of the photographs with the original Christian Science Monitor article, "Why Not Walk?" by Philip Hyde.
Next time you visit one of our national parks, why not try walking? If this proposal seems startling to you in this mechanized age, you might consider some of the qualities that make up the natural scene that is observed in our system of national parks.
One of the most rewarding aspects of nature is the exquisite beauty found in minutiae: the patterns of snow-flakes, the form of a tiny butterfly, or the interlaced perfection of leaf forms. None of these are easily observed from a moving automobile, yet most visitors to our nature preserves depend primarily on wheeled locomotion to "see" the parks.
You can look at the grand landscapes in the parks through the windshield. But to really see them you must get out of the car, at least enough to look at the foreground.
No mountain is so grand that knowing its foreground of small stones, tiny plants, and even the animals that inhabit it does not enhance its grandeur. For the natural world is not a miscellaneous collection of unrelated pieces, but a unified, harmonious whole, interacting and inter-dependent.

Clothing manufacturer operating for 68 years collapses but potential saviour emerges
Cara Waters
A family business which has been operating for 68 years has entered administration, although a buyer may be on the horizon to rescue Ambassador Clothing.
Geoff Reidy, of insolvency firm Rodgers Reidy, was appointed as the administrator of Ambassador at the start of this month.
The clothing manufacturer is based in Marrickville in Sydney's west, with an annual turnover of $3 million to $4 million.
The family business was started by managing director Lawrence Chahoud's father and uncle in 1944.
Ambassador produces menswear and womenswear under the Zambelli and Nic Green labels, as well as manufacturing uniforms, including a previous contract that ran for 15 years with the NSW Police force.
However, Reidy told SmartCompany that Ambassador suffered "some shocks" with a decline in retail and the global financial crisis.
"It has cut back from being a manufacturer and retailer to predominantly a manufacturer, and reduced staff from 140 to just under 20, having closed all its retail outlets. As a legacy of that, it has a whole bunch of debts it can't pay so it needs some fresh invigoration," he says.
Reidy says while Ambassador's external debt is only around $1.3 million it owes a large bank debt in excess of $4 million to the National Australia Bank.
He is looking to sell the business and says one purchaser is lined up to buy it.
"The sale should be resolved within the next week. The potential buyer is an Australian company and a lot of the staff will be kept on, although they will do their own restructuring," he says.
"It has very good potential to be a good niche business in the future, hopefully a success story in the rag trade."
A second creditors' meeting will be held in Sydney on December 6.

"IHS Markit, a research group, predicts 32% market penetration of highly autonomous cars by 2035."
Driverless taxis (Uber and Lyft in the U.S., GrabTaxi in Singapore) could roll out services in coming years "costing $1 a mile, which compares favorably with the cost of car ownership."
"Gross revenues for Uber, Lyft, and others more than doubled last year to $36 billion. By 2030, they could multiply another eight times."

Vehicle Design Trends That Are Here Today, Gone Tomorrow
Dave Rand
Here Today, Gone TomorrowPorsche
Every new styling cue comes with its own expiration date, and even with the best it's just a matter of time before the freshness fades.
Horizontal taillamp bars, black wheels, and flying roofs are three design trends that have grown increasingly popular in recent years.
Really, how could anything that is fashionable be anything else? Still, the author takes solace from the great vehicle designs that seem to shrug off the test of time.
Many years ago, when I was still a young designer at General Motors, the vice president of design told me—maybe in a moment of frustration—that design was basically a fashion business. For a naïve designer still believing that great design could be timeless, this was very disturbing. I couldn't believe what I was hearing.
But of course, he was right.
To be sure, great design can be timeless, but most manufacturers are understandably more interested in selling product than producing art. And to that end, it's in their best interest (in more ways than one) to produce designs that are current, or even trendy.
What is current and modern today inherently becomes outdated. Every new styling cue comes with its own expiration date, and even with the best it's just a matter of time before the freshness fades.
But given the life cycle of most vehicles, designs now past their former glory will simply be replaced with the latest, newest offering.
Think back. How many design cues and themes that once seemed ubiquitous and fashionable are now just fodder for collector car magazines and YouTube videos? Remember tail fins? If those are too far back, how about hidden headlamps? Opera windows? There was a time when any domestic sedan with luxury aspirations had fender skirts. "What's a fender skirt?" ... "What's a sedan?"
So let me suggest some current, fashionable design cues that are also destined to run their course. While they may never totally disappear, time is not on their side.
Black Wheels
I will admit when first introduced, the graphic impact of black wheels in the right context was strong. And at first, also distinctive as they seemed to be reserved for performance vehicles. But now they're on everything.
Rolls-Royce not afraid of unconventional rims.Rolls-Royce
What troubles me is that they can disguise the diameter of the wheel (just upgraded for those 20-inchers, who can tell?). And black rims tend to reduce the perceived depth—and flatten it—because they work mostly as a 2D statement. Remember, you're still paying for alloy wheels, a material that can be polished, brushed, and machined in a way that highlights its potential visual qualities.
A vehicle's wheels play an important—perhaps underappreciated—role as a design element, helping reinforce its character along with providing an opportunity for differentiation and invention. With this in mind, it just seems a shame to paint them all black.
Flying Roofs
I'm not sure if there's a more technical or design-y name for this, but what I'm referring to is the roof of a vehicle visually detached or floating separately from the C- or D-pillars.
2023 Lexus RX.Lexus
The goal seems to be to generate a more interesting side glass graphic, for example, in the case of the GMC Terrain, or with the Nissan Murano—one continuous sweeping curve depicting the roof from the A-pillar rearward, with the rear quarter providing an interesting kick-up uninterrupted by a D-pillar.
The Lexus RX has a different execution, separating its upper at the base of the pillar, unlike others that do it at the top, with the effect of the roof flowing downward to the D-pillar, nearly creating the illusion of a fastback sedan.
While all these vehicles give the impression of continuous and expansive side glass, the reality is they all compromise the driver's rear quarter visibility. Still, it's a pervasive look for crossovers and SUVs, with vehicles from Chevrolet, Kia, Hyundai, and others having their own variations of the theme. Very stylish.
Horizontal Taillamp Bar
While not a brand-new idea, lighting technology has evolved to the point where the latest batch of these are intense, very thin light strips. And they are appealing, lending a very clean, precise look while also providing added visual width to the rear.
Rivian R1T.Rivian
Porsche uses it on the current 911, as well as the Taycan and variations for the Cayenne and Macan. There's nothing wrong with reinforcing a family resemblance. Both Mercedes-Benz and Audi are using similar themes to identify their electric vehicles.
Lincoln has been using it on SUVs, and the new 2023 Toyota Prius has it as well. EV startups Lucid and Rivian have both seen fit to put it on their introductory vehicles. They all seem to embrace the trend regardless of vehicle cost or type, at least for the time being.
Hearst Owned
And so, this really is part of the design business, and certainly not just for cars—it's both temporary and a bit superficial.
PA Images
But really, how could anything that is fashionable be anything else?
While I take solace from the great vehicle designs that seem to shrug off the test of time, I will wait for the next design trend sweeping across the automotive industry—fleeting though it may be.

It's part of a proposed settlement agreement in a class-action lawsuit against the automaker. The proposed agreement also stipulates that Jeep denies any admission of liability or wrongdoing.

This is certainly a minor issue but, as I noticed it since the very first VBox release I used a few years ago, I think it is worth noting.
When I have to choose a folder on the host system (XP) to make it act as a shared folder for a VM, the folder structure in the dialog always automatically expands to some folder which I never selected (Windows\System32, Programs\VirtualBox ...).
As the folder I want to share is (obviously) elsewhere, I always have to manually compress the structure ("-" button) and then expand the proper drive and tree branch to find the folder I want. This has to be done every time, even though the folder I want to choose is always the same.
I think the dialog should open showing the top system resources or, maybe better, the latest folder selected for sharing.
So, is this actually a bug (or an oversight)? Is it easily fixable? Is it going to be fixed?
No one looked at this ticket? Did I make a... mistake in honestly classifying it as "minor"?
Note that support is done on a best-effort basis.
I've no doubt about that. As I said elsewhere, I do not pretend all posts to be followed by immediate care and fulfillment; that would be quite senseless, to say the least.
However, I think that a few feedback words in a fortnight, even just to say "we know, we're planning a fix" or "you are wrong", could be affordable.
So, what about that folder expansion thing? Do you think it is worth a fix or not?
Yes, this is fixable. Next time please keep your description shorter.
The next maintenance release will start the file dialog in the users home directory. I think this is a good compromise.


Purpose: To build visual discrimination skills, VMI, and bilateral control.
Material: Download/print the attached documents. Chalkboard/whiteboard, paper, pencil, crayons, chalk/markers.
1. Draw two vertical columns of simple, matched shapes or figures, but vary the position of the like figures within the column so that the same shapes are not opposite each other.
2. The child is instructed to select a figure in the left hand column and draw as straight a line as possible directly to the matching shape in the right hand column.
a. Orient the figures or shapes in horizontal rows, and at other angles.
b. Create patterns to bematched on the basis of size, same shape but different sizes, but perhaps with two or three different shapes involoved as well.
c. Color matching of shapes (and sizes) can be done with crayons or colored chalk.
d. Create patterns, similar to the worksheet provided, with less obvious relationships, such as a bee on one side and a flower to match with it on the other side. Or, a car on one side and garage on the other.
1. Visual prediction or selection of correct matches.
2. Accurate control of hand and arm movements in the various directions required to connect the shapes.
Do the activity at a whiteboard/chalkboard so that the child must be standing, with arms outstretched. Repeat the activity sitting at a table using paper/pen/pencil.
Be sure to have the child use the non-dominant hand 10% of the time.
You may find this all too simple for older or more mature clients, but it is important to attempt the activity to ensure sufficient mastery of the skills prior to moving on to more difficult activities.

Templo Mayor was a temple in the capital city of the Aztecs, Tenochtitlan, in what is now Mexico City.
In fact, much of Mexico City was built over Tenochtitlan, but some original sites remain, including the Great Temple, known as Templo Mayor, which was the most important building in the city.
Temple Mayor was built by the people of Tenochtitlan as a shrine to the deities Huitzilopochtli and Tlaloc. Tenochtitlan was originally established in around 325 AD and was a thriving city with around 200,000 people until 1521, when it was conquered by the Spanish.
Templo Mayor is now a popular tourist site, with a museum filled with Aztec artefacts uncovered during the excavation. Overall the Templo Mayor and its museum offer a great insight in the pre-Hispanic era in Mexico.
Templo Mayor is open daily except Mondays 9am-5pm. Entry costs 48 Pesos for adults and is free for children under 12 and students with valid ID.
Templo Mayor is near Zocalo Metro Station, (line 2). Lagunilla subway station is also close (line B).
Just as empires rise and fall so do entry fees and opening hours! While we work as hard as we can to ensure the information provided here about Templo Mayor is as accurate as possible, the changing nature of certain elements mean we can't absolutely guarantee that these details won't become a thing of the past.

Texas vs. OU will be moved to Fox Sports 1. It can't even make an 11:00 a.m. kickoff on Fox's main network any longer?
Pete Delkus proves he's only doing a bit with his prediction for additional rainfall through Saturday: He says Sherman is expected to get 3.28 inches while McKinney is expecting 1.75. Tell me how ridiculous that is. First, to give a prediction within a hundredth of an inch is insane, and the disparity between the two cities -- only 32 miles apart -- is dumbfounding. And I didn't even mention his prediction of 0.36 for Gainesville.
And the weatherman for Fox 4 this morning was more than defensive as he told the audience what a 30% chance of rain really means and then followed it up with: "I can't predict if it is going to rain at your house."
"WASHINGTON — The largest health insurer in Texas [Blue Cross] wants to raise its rates on individual policies by an average of nearly 60 percent . . . ." Wow. Question: What do you guys pay out there for an individual policy not provided by an employer and what is the deductible?
Why was a Sheriff's deputy running radar on 287 in the rain a few days back? We've got a slew of troopers to do that.
Uber announced yesterday it had raised $3.8 billion from Saudi Arabia. What are they up to? Sidenote: You would think Uber wouldn't cost all that much to manage. They don't have to buy a fleet of cars and the company runs on technology.
Buried under the Kenneth Starr resignation news at Baylor was the other news that running back Devin Chafin was kicked off the team for an alleged domestic assault in 2014 and that seven Baylor recruits who had signed letters of intent in February had asked to be released. I'm coming out the Stage One Denial: This is a disaster.
And if that wasn't bad enough, I heard from a guy I trust yesterday who said there is a video in existence relating to a sexual assault that will rock this thing to the next level (if that's even possible.) I hope it isn't true.
Ken Starr's interview yesterday was embarrassing. He seemed clueless, naive, and lazy. In that regard, did you know he never even spoke personally with Monica Lewinsky? The lead special counsel in one of the most noteworthy investigations in U.S. history never took the time to talk to the most important witness. As a prosecutor, you will be stunned by what you can learn from a witness if you meet with them, make it a casual and non-threatening environment, and listen instead of telling them what you need from them.

ARSENAL target Ivan Perisic has reportedly asked Inter boss Luciano Spalletti to allow him to leave the club.
World Cup finalist Perisic was allegedly subject to an approach from Arsenal on Saturday.
According to Calciomercato, the Croatian has now asked European giants Inter to accept a bid from the Premier League side.
He told reporters: "It's normal for him to talk about him in the market, because he's a strong player.
The winger would likely cost in the region of £45million but has only scored three goals this season after notching 11 in the previous two campaigns.
BBC Sport man David Ornstein revealed Arsenal's interest in the 29-year-old on Twitter, exciting Gunners fans about the possible deal.
"#AFC want loan with £35m option to buy. 29yo open to #Inter exit," Ornstein wrote.
The news comes after former Arsenal midfielder Steve Sidwell fumed at the transfer dealings of his former club after their FA Cup exit.

The European ferro-alloys and silicon industry is the first supplier of the iron, steel, aluminium and chemicals industries. It also provides the electronic and solar industries with elements essential to their manufacturing processes, offering the highest qualities of products. The importance of interdependence along this supply chain is worth mentioning.
Composed of a majority of SMEs, the European ferro-alloys and silicon sector is exposed to extremely intensive international competition that is often unfair and increases its cost vulnerability still further.
The manufacturing of products such as ferro-alloys and silicon, which are strategic for the European economy (e.g. in the automotive, aerospace, electronics and renewable energy sectors), requires the best quality products: these products are manufactured in Europe.
Today, it is imperative for the EU to ensure fair and sustainable international trade conditions that preserve the competitiveness of the European industry.

WHEN FEAR CREPT IN Brian recalls when fear truly gripped him as a kid. He explains, "The terror started when I was just seven years old.

Influenza (also known as the flu) is a serious illness that affects millions of Americans every year, hospitalizing over 250,000 people. Unfortunately, 36,000 of these patients, mostly over the age of 65, die each year from health complications caused by the flu.
The flu season takes place during the months between October and May, with January being the peak time. With new strains of influenza occurring every year, your flu shot from last year won't necessarily protect you this year. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends flu shots for those six months and older, especially those who face chronic health conditions.
There are a few reasons why you should get the flu shot, one of them being that it not only protects you against the flu, but it also protects those around you. Infants, seniors, and those with chronic health conditions can easily contract the flu by having weak immune systems, so by you getting the flu shot, you're also protecting those who are more vulnerable to the illness. Also, if you do contract the flu virus, your symptoms would be much milder than if you didn't get your flu shot. The flu shot is also recommended for pregnant women, as they can help prevent hospitalization of infants for the flu.
Make AFC Urgent Care Fairfield your go-to destination for seasonal flu shots! We can also provide treatment if you get sick with the flu.
If your symptoms are severe, don't hesitate to visit our walk-in urgent care center! We are open every day, including weekends, from 8am to 8pm to administer your flu shot or treat your flu symptoms.

Former pro motocross racer Carey Hart doesn't care about getting judgy parents all fired up.
The husband of singer Pink shared a video Wednesday of their 7-year-old daughter Willow shooting a rifle in an open field.
Hart seems to know he'll be slammed by some for letting his kid fire a gun, calling out the "parent police" in his Instagram post.
"Haven't poked the parent police bear in a few days," Hart wrote. "Willz and I shooting the 22 rifle. She is getting pretty good.
In the video, Willow is seen kneeling down with her hand on the trigger. "Can I go?," she asks.
"Whenever you're ready," her dad answers.
"Wait, is the safety on?," the child asks before her father assures her it's not. Willow then fires off a single shot.
Comments ranged from praise to condemnation. "Well done for teaching her how to be gun safe," one user wrote.
Others trashed his decision. "There is absolutely no reason why a 3-year-old needs to be shooting a gun," another user commented.
Hart is no stranger to being criticized for his parenting skills. Wife Pink had to defend him in December after he posted a shot of himself with their nearly-2-year-old son Jameson on a dirt bike. When critics wrote of putting his son in danger, Pink sarcastically fired back, "Help me Instagram, we can't possibly parent without you," among other things.
Hart also got backlash in August for mentioning he took his son out in public while he had hand, foot and mouth disease, with critics going off on him for potentially exposing others to the virus.


MsJudyP and AdAora I am from the Dallas area and shop Dallas and surrounding areas. I have been shopping for five months now and I love it!
Hey ya'll Texans Just wanted to introduce myself I am in south texas by Victoria, I am totally new to all of this but I am learning. Wish me luck I need it!!
I live between Sam Rayburn & Toledo Bend, almost to Louisiana. I've been doing some demo's for Quality.. These people are the arm pits of the earth to put it mildly. Grrr. I'd love to do demo's/MS's/merchandising for companies in my area that ACTUALLY pay as promised. If anyone has any leads please give me a shout.
Love your part of the country. I spent a week on vacation a few years ago on Rayburn at a friends condo. Really enjoyed it.
I would also like to get set up with a good merchandising company and not do so much ms'ng. If I hear of anything, I'll let you know and you do the same, OK?
Have any of you fellow Texans done any Bank shops for ath power? I've got one coming up next Monday. It seems pretty simple, role playing and showing interest in opening a personal checking account.
Hi group - I'm restarting my MS career part time and thought I'd drop in and get acquainted. Some of you I know, to the ones I don't - howdy! Hi, MsJudyP, remember me?
let you know how it goes and how quickly I get paid! One of them I am hired as an employee and have to go through 4 days of training before I start so we will see.
I was curious how far do most of you drive from your homes to do MS's and Merchandising? So far I have gone like 120 miles one way.
Pam, welcome and I hope you enjoy MSing as much as I do!!
Cari, welcome back to MSing!
Im a NC shopper who will be mini-vacationing in Dallas in a few weeks. I was wondering if any of my fellow shoppers could give me some advice on what to see/getting around while I'm there? I will be staying at the Hyatt Regency. My sister-in-law is coming to town for the Mary Kay convention and myself and my 6 yr old daughter are coming with her!! Is the downtown area safe for my daughter and I to venture out? I would appreciate any advice you can give.
Fair Park (it has Science Place and they usually have activities for kids. It also has museums and an aquarium.
The Dallas Museum of Art has Jazz Under The Stars on Thursday nights and you can take a picnic.
The downtown library usually has activities for kids too.
All of the above are in the downtown area and would be easy to get to. The Hyatt will have a guide I imagine showing where all of these places are.
If you have the ability to get to Ft. Worth while you are here I think you would enjoy the Stockyards, The Kimball Museum, and the Ft. Worth Zoo is one of the best zoos I have ever been too.
You can also catch the trolly not far from downtown and go sightseeing.
If I can think of anything else I will let you know.
Tomball just outside of Houston. I know there are a lot of us around this area since the jobs go soooo fast. Love to network with some of yall!
I would love to go to NC sometime. My daughter and her friend are headed to Atchison, KS in a few weeks, to take my daughter's friend home. My daughter might stay for 2 weeks. They have been arguing since she got here. They are 14 and PMSing.
I am in Van, which is not far from the Dallas area. I love shopping in Dallas, it is so much fun. My daughter especially loves the Galleria there.
How about us getting together soon? I would really like to be able to have mystery shopping support group!!
I'm game Any suggestions as to where a central location is that we could meet up? I'll have to get a map. Let's see, we have Lindale, Troup, Lufkin, Longview and Pittsburg representing east Texas right? Did I miss someone?
I'm pretty flexible, am not really doing a whole lot of ms'ing, only have 4 jobs lined up for July so far.
well I cant travel that far becuase I would have to find a ride becuase I do not have a drivers lincense so hopefully it is somewhere close to my area and I can pay someone or talk someone in to taking me there. What about Gilmer, Or mount pleasant tx?
Hey, Jacksonville is about an hour from all of us. A little more for some and little less for others, but not much. So how about there? Now all someone has to do is figure out a date and time!
Jacksonville sounds fine to me. I've only been there once, but it's not too far for me to drive. I don't remember any landmarks there, though. Maybe they have a Pizza Hut or something that we all could easily find.
You're right Chrissy, timing is going to be the problem. The only dates I have filled so far in July is the 5th, 6th, 16th & 20th. Other than my MS jobs, I'm free anytime. Anyone who is interested in meeting with us, why don't you tell us the dates you can't make it and we'll start eliminating dates.
Ruth, I'm curious, how do you do your shops if you don't drive? Do you mostly do demos? If you could catch a ride to Longview, I'd be happy for you to ride to Jacksonville (if that's where we decide to meet) with me.
I do my mystery shops when someone just carries me and they stay in the car when i do my shop and when I am done I come out and then we leave I have not done any demos in a few months for some reason these demo companies are telling me that they dont have any work for me and when I go to the stores there is a ton of people there doing demos. I am sorry I cant even find a way to longview becuase that is too far.

When I was confirmed the bishop didn't feel like going to all the churches to confer the sacrament, so The diocese rented a very large secular auditorium for the day and had all confirmation candidates from the diocese get confirmed there. There was no mass, he just had everyone go up in a line with their sponsor to receive the sacrament.
My question is - is my confirmation invalid because it did not take place in a church, and it did not take place during a mass?
It seems highly unlikely that any bishop would see to it that all these preparations were made just to gather a large number of people together and confirm them in a way that would make all these confirmations invalid. Huge waste of everyone's time and the diocese's resources.
Be at peace and trust that your bishop knows what he is doing.
This is the earliest use of the term Catholic Church. so you can be sure the bishop's presence is what is important for anything the Church does.
My understanding is that being in a church is not intrinsic to the validity of the sacrament of confirmation.
It amazes me that anyone could make such a post.
What do you find "amazing" about this? The OP asked a question, and we answer.
How do you know he didn't "feel like it"? There may have been logistical reasons that made it impossible, or a health related issues that wasn't made public. Unless he came right out and said "I don't feel like it', you really don't know.
I do wonder what makes people question the validity of the sacraments they receive. From the content of the questions often asked the person asking does not know what are the requirements for a sacrament to be valid. If they do not know why have doubts about its validity?
recipients entitled to receive the sacrament.
A bishop is the ordinary minister of confirmation. If he used the words, "Be sealed with the gift of the Holy Spirit" (the form) and used sacred chrism (the matter) we can assume he had the correct intent. So, unless you should not receive confirmation you received the sacrament validly.
As long as your Bishop is a valid Catholic Bishop, as long as he used the proper words, you are Confirmed.
Confirmation does not have to happen in a Church or during a Mass. It can be done in an ER bedside at the hospital or in a big auditorium.
One HUGE lack in these forums is the age bracket of the posters. That alone would greatly help to clear up many misunderstandings. As well, the traditional "fear" of speaking with Father still applies. A simple question to Father after mass would put so many hearts at ease.
OP: Simply put: If the Bishop (or priest at the Bishop's direction) lays hands on you with the intention of confirming you - you are confirmed. Let not your heart be troubled!
We old, curmudgeonly types have "occasionally" forgotten about what it is like to be young. Everything is long settled for us. So, when we see such a question, we can be amazed. After a little pondering, we should not be.
Still, knowing a little more about whom we interact with would be helpful.
Actually the laying on of hands is not required. Just the sealing with sacred chrism. In large groups the bishop typically doesn't lay hands on the masses.
The only sacrament that needs to occur during Mass is the Eucharist. Matrimony, Holy Orders, Anointing of the Sick, Penance, Baptism and Confirmation may all be done separately.

Hed & Strand (Head and Strand)
Mine, Active
Au; Sb
arsenopyrite; gold; pyrite; stibnite
The Hed & [and] Strand mine is in an east fork of upper Lost Creek, a south tributary to Stewart River; it is about 2.7 miles northeast of Mount Distin. The east fork tributary is known as Dahl Creek or Dahl Gulch (Cathcart, 1922, p. 224). The property is mainly in the SW1/4 section 14, T. 8 S., R. 33 W., Kateel River Meridian. The location given is in the approximate center of the easternmost of two patented claims and near the main workings of the mine. The Hed & [and] Strand mine is locality 8 of Hummel (1962 [MF 248]) and locality 30 of Cobb (1972 [MF 463], 1978 [OFR 78-93]); it is located within about 500 feet of the coordinates.
The Hed & [and] Strand mine was developed by an adit and drifts on stibnite-bearing quartz veins in metamorphic rocks. The main vein was intersected 90 feet in from the portal of the adit; it strikes N45E and dips 48 N. At this point, the vein was followed by a 100-foot drift to the northeast and a 140-foot drift to the southwest (Mertie, 1918 [B 662-I, p. 425-449]). At the face of the 100-foot drift, the vein was about 2 feet wide and composed mostly of sheared schist with thin seams of stibnite on the hanging and foot walls. Where intersected in the adit, the vein was 4 feet wide; it consisted of white quartz and stibnite, with stibnite forming a footwall mass about 2 feet thick. A second subparallel vein was found 190 feet from the adit portal; it was drifted on for 170 feet. Lower grade material contains quartz and pyrite; Brooks (1916, p. 54-56) reported a mineralized mica schist with calcite, pyrite, and arsenopyrite. Mertie (1918, p. 438) reported that quartz with stibnite, exposed in the creek near the mine, assayed about 0.30 ounce of gold per ton; the associated stibnite contained about 0.1 ounce of gold per ton. The veins pinch and swell, and, as is typical of simple stibnite veins, the ore occurs in pods and kidneys (Bliss and Orris, 1986, p. 183-186).
About 106 tons of stibnite ore were mined and shipped in 1915 and 1916. This ore had a low gold content. Development continued at the mine in the late 1920s and early 1930s. When Anderson (1947) visited the mine in about 1943, about 10 tons of 30 percent antimony ore were on the dumps and about 30 to 40 tons were exposed in mine workings. At that time, there were about 1,000 feet of accessible mine workings.
The schist in the adit had a strike of about N15W and dipped at a low angle to the northeast. The main workings appear to lie within quartz-mica schist and a feldspar-rich epidote-bearing schist near a contact with massive marble (Bundtzen and others, 1994). The epidote-bearing schist may be part of a regional mafic metavolcanic assemblage that has an Ordovician protolith (Till and Dumoulin, 1994). Hummel (1962 [MF 248]) mapped an approximately east-west high-angle fault in Dahl Creek; the fault is upthrown on the south side. Earlier authors, including Mertie (1918 [B 662-I, p. 425-449]) and Cathcart (1922), noted a nearby metamorphosed granite body as possibly related to the mineralization, and Hummel (1962 [MF 248]) showed a small granite orthogneiss on the ridge east of the prospect. Granitic orthogneisses mapped by Bundtzen and others (1994) are about 1 mile north and 1 mile south of the prospect. The area is too complex to decipher with 1:63,360-scale mapping.
The metamorphic rocks in this area are part of the Nome Group derived from Proterozoic or early Paleozoic protoliths (Till and Dumoulin, 1994). The Nome Group underwent regional blueschist facies metamorphism in the Late Jurassic or Early Cretaceous (Sainsbury, Coleman, and Kachadoorian, 1970; Forbes and others, 1984; Thurston, 1985; Armstrong and others, 1986; Hannula and McWilliams, 1995). The blueschist facies rocks were recrystallized to greenschist facies or higher metamorphic grades in conjunction with regional extension, crustal melting, and magmatism in the mid-Cretaceous (Hudson and Arth, 1983; Miller and Hudson, 1991; Miller and others, 1992; Dumitru and others, 1995; Hannula and others, 1995; Hudson, 1994; Amato and others, 1994; Amato and Wright, 1997, 1998). Lode gold mineralization on Seward Peninsula is mostly related to the higher temperature metamorphism in the mid-Cretaceous (Apodoca, 1994; Ford, 1993 [thesis]; Ford and Snee, 1996; Goldfarb and others, 1997). Lode antimony mineralization is inferred to be of the same approximate age.
Simple Sb deposit (Cox and Singer, 1986; model 27d).
Mid-Cretaceous?; structures controlling deposits postdate regional metamorphism; mineralization could be similar in age to lode gold deposits of Seward Peninsula.
Quartz veining and apparently some disseminated pyrite and arsenopyrite in nearby schist.
Stibnite was discovered in Dahl Creek in about 1909, and development followed soon after. Workings consist of surface pits, an adit, and underground cross-cuts, drifts, and small stopes. Most of the workings were driven before 1918, and ore was produced and shipped in 1915 and 1916. Development continued at the mine in the late 1920s and early 1930s. When Anderson (1947) visited the mine in about 1943, about 10 tons of 30 percent antimony ore were on the dumps and about 30 to 40 tons were exposed in mine workings. At that time, there were about 1,000 feet of accessible mine workings. There was recent activity nearby in 1996-98 at the Bulk Gold prospect (NM071 and 072,) which includes the two patented Hed & [and] Strand claims.
Yes; small
Probably a few tens of tons of stibnite ore were left exposed in mine workings (Anderson, 1947).
About 106 tons of stibnite ore were mined and shipped in 1915 and 1916. This ore had a low gold content. Development continued at the mine in the late 1920s and early 1930s. When Anderson (1947) visited the mine in about 1943, about 10 tons of 30 percent antimony ore were on the dumps and about 30 to 40 tons were exposed in mine workings. At that time, there were about 1,000 feet of open mine workings.

I don't plan to. We have constant current LED strips too (like this one (http://www.denolighting.com/Constant-Current-5050-SMD-LED-Strip-lights-12V-24V.html)). We can leave the power LEDs out and use only constant voltage LED strips so we can adapt to both situations, whichever is the better solution.
I admit I'm not an expert. All I know is we tried to use the IRLZ34N (http://www.irf.com/product-info/datasheets/data/irlz34n.pdf) at around 1.7A, 12V CD and it went to 60-70 C very fast although it is supposed to be a low drain-to-source resistance FET. It seems enough to be concerned about when it will have to handle 8-10A continuously in the full setup. But maybe it's nothing to worry about, I don't have enough experience with this kind of light control, coming from the world of DMX.

For example, if we used 12V CV strips like this (https://www.ledsupply.com/led-strips/non-waterproof-12v-led-strips) then we would have to go up to 8A to get the amount of light we need. What kind of logic level MOSFET can deal with that?


Dawn Sheree Crawford began her dance training at the age of 8 in Grand Junction, Colorado at Mesa State College. Some classes taken include ballet, jazz, modern and tap. Dawn participated in many summer workshops where different forms of dance were experienced. The workshops brought various guest artists from different parts of the country helping her to add new and exciting forms of dance into her repertoire of movement. Throughout all of her years of dance training, however, ballet remained constant. Each semester concluded with a dance concert where students choreographed and performed original pieces. Dawn performed in numerous dance concerts both as a child and then later as an adult.
Dawn's training was constant for over 10 years. During the summer of her 16th year, Dawn took classes with members of Ballet El Paso in Texas. Dawn continued to perform with the Mesa State Repertory Dance Company while she was a student there.
After she married, Dawn taught a year of Musical Theater for Mesa State College where she worked with children from ages 5-12 on singing and choreography.
Dawn has experience choreographing for many performances including her HS jazz choir and musicals, church musicals and many other productions. Dawn also taught for over 3 years for Lorrie Revelli at The Dance Connection. She taught as a pre-school teacher at The Children's School where she taught with Teacher Cheri for 9 years, she involved singing and dancing wherever she could. She currently instructs Ballet, Pointe, Modern and Technique for Competition Teams.
While one of Dawn's focuses throughout her life has been in the arts and has been lucky to continue teaching in that area, her husband and growing family remain her priority.


One of the main draws of Blackjack is its simple rules. The simple rules and the player vs. house setup have certain implications for how you play. Basically it translates to a fixed set of strategic actions that can be employed in certain situations.
These rules and actions are set out in basic Blackjack strategy. Summaries, graphs and pictures that can be used as a basic strategy cheat sheet can be found online.
Basic strategy is considered common knowledge, it is not card counting and it is not cheating or gaining an unfair advantage. It sets out a series of moves that can be used in a given situation.
You will always know two things in any blackjack game for sure. That is the cards in your hand and the single face up card of the house.
Basic strategy will offer the best move based on what statistically will give you the best odds for a win.
Basic strategy is designed to work with games of between 4 to 8 decks, which is perfect for casino gaming.
So as an example of what basic strategy entails let's look at a hypothetical hand. Let's say that the two cards in hand totals 12 for the player. The dealer is showing you a 6.
Statistically what would be the best move here? Basic strategy states that you must stand. If the dealer shows you a 7, then the best move would have been to hit.
There is no sure way to be an unbeatable blackjack winning machine.
Employing basic strategy will still mean that some hands you will lose, but in the long run your game play and your winnings will improve greatly.
Betting strategies are supposedly fool proof methods for beating the house. Betting strategies are based on flawed logic and very outdated mathematical models.
These strategies were developed in the 1700's and are best avoided, especially when you are expected to pay for these "secret methods".
Remember to check out the table rules first before you join a blackjack game.
Slight rule variations can greatly affect basic strategy. Check and compare your strategy and the rule variations for the best results in your gaming.
With basic strategy your Blackjack skills can go from beginner to master with a little bit of practice and dedication to the rules.

Q: Elasticsearch 5 variance in keyword ot text field I using elasticsearch 5, I know how to get variance of number field but I do not know how to get variance of keyword or text field,
Someone can help?
Thanks

A: I checked it, and my conclusion is that elasticsearch can't do that, you need to this you're own.
