When great trees fall in forests, small things recoil into silence, their senses eroded beyond fear.
When great souls die, the air around us becomes light, rare, sterile. We breathe, briefly. Our eyes, briefly, see with a hurtful clarity. Our memory, suddenly sharpened, examines, gnaws on kind words unsaid, promised walks never taken.
Great souls die and our reality, bound to
them, takes leave of us. Our souls, dependent upon their nurture, now shrink, wizened. Our minds, formed and informed by their radiance, fall away. We are not so much maddened as reduced to the unutterable ignorance of dark, cold caves.
And when great souls die, after a period peace blooms, slowly and always irregularly. Spaces fill with a kind of soothing electric vibration. Our senses, restored, never to be the same, whisper to us. They existed. They existed.
We can be. Be and be better. For they existed."

A free bird leaps on the back of the wind
and floats downstream till the current ends and dips his wing in the orange suns rays and dares to claim the sky.
But a bird that stalks down his narrow cage can seldom see through his bars of rage his wings are clipped and his feet are tied so he opens his throat to sing.
The caged bird sings with a fearful trill
of things unknown but longed for still
and his tune is heard on the distant hill
for the caged bird sings of freedom.
The free bird thinks of another breeze
and the trade winds soft through the sighing trees and the fat worms waiting on a dawn-bright lawn and he names the sky his own.
But a caged bird stands on the grave of dreams his shadow shouts on a nightmare scream his wings are clipped and his feet are tied so he opens his throat to sing.
"I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw some things back."
"I am convinced that most people do not grow up...We marry and dare to have children and call that growing up. I think what we do is mostly grow old. We carry accumulation of years in our bodies, and on our faces, but generally our real selves, the children inside, are innocent and shy as magnolias."
"We, unaccustomed to courage exiles from delight live coiled in shells of loneliness until love leaves its high holy temple and comes into our sight to liberate us into life.
Love arrives and in its train come ecstasies old memories of pleasure ancient histories of pain. Yet if we are bold, love strikes away the chains of fear from our souls.
We are weaned from our timidity. In the flush of love's light we dare be brave and suddenly we see that love costs all we are and will ever be. Yet it is only love which sets us free."
"If you find it in your heart to care for somebody else, you will have succeeded."
"In all the world, there is no heart for me like yours. In all the world, there is no love for you like mine."
"Some people cannot see a good thing when it is right here, right now. Others can sense a good thing coming when it is days, months, or miles away."
"A woman who is convinced that she deserves to accept only the best challenges herself to give the best. Then she is living phenomenally."
"There is nothing so pitiful as a young cynic because he has gone from knowing nothing to believing nothing."
"Had I known that the heart breaks slowly, dismantling itself into unrecognizable plots of misery... had I known yet I would have loved you, your brash and insolent beauty, your heavy comedic face and knowledge of sweet delights, but from a distance I would have left you whole and wholly for the delectation of those who wanted more and cared less."
"The ache for home lives in all of us. The safe place where we can go as we are and not be questioned."
"It's the fire in my eyes, And the flash of my teeth, The swing in my waist, And the joy in my feet. I'm a woman Phenomenally."
"Success is loving life and daring to live it."
"Whining is not only graceless, but can be dangerous. It can alert a brute that a victim is in the neighborhood."

Men themselves have wondered What they see in me. They try so much But they can't touch My inner mystery. When I try to show them They say they still can't see. I say, It's in the arch of my back, The sun of my smile, The ride of my breasts, The grace of my style. I'm a woman Phenomenally. Phenomenal woman, That's me.
Now you understand Just why my head's not bowed. I don't shout or jump about Or have to talk real loud. When you see me passing It ought to make you proud. I say, It's in the click of my heels, The bend of my hair, the palm of my hand, The need of my care, 'Cause I'm a woman Phenomenally. Phenomenal woman, That's me."
"My great hope is to laugh as much as I cry; to get my work done and try to love somebody and have the courage to accept the love in return."
"Most people don't grow up. Most people age. They find parking spaces, honor their credit cards, get married, have children, and call that maturity. What that is, is aging."
"There's a world of difference between truth and facts. Facts can obscure truth."
"I don't know if I continue, even today, always liking myself. But what I learned to do many years ago was to forgive myself. It is very important for every human being to forgive herself or himself because if you live, you will make mistakes- it is inevitable. But once you do and you see the mistake, then you forgive yourself and say, 'Well, if I'd known better I'd have done better,' that's all. So you say to people who you think you may have injured, 'I'm sorry,' and then you say to yourself, 'I'm sorry.' If we all hold on to the mistake, we can't see our own glory in the mirror because we have the mistake between our faces and the mirror; we can't see what we're capable of being. You can ask forgiveness of others, but in the end the real forgiveness is in one's own self. I think that young men and women are so caught by the way they see themselves. Now mind you. When a larger society sees them as unattractive, as threats, as too black or too white or too poor or too fat or too thin or too sexual or too asexual, that's rough. But you can overcome that. The real difficulty is to overcome how you think about yourself. If we don't have that we never grow, we never learn, and sure as hell we should never teach."
"Love recognizes no barriers. It jumps hurdles, leaps fences, penetrates walls to arrive at its destination full of hope."
"Hoping for the best, prepared for the worst, and unsurprised by anything in between."
"Life is pure adventure, and the sooner we realize that, the quicker we will be able to treat life as art."
"When you learn, teach, when you get, give."
"I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one."
"Hate, it has caused a lot of problems in the world, but has not solved one yet."
"Let gratitude be the pillow upon which you kneel to say your nightly prayer. And let faith be the bridge you build to overcome evil and welcome good."
"A friend may be waiting behind a stranger's face."
"I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll miss them when they're gone from your life."
"We need much less than we think we need."
"If you have only one smile in you, give it to the people you love. Don't be surly at home, then go out in the street and start grinning 'Good morning' at total strangers."
"There were people who went to sleep last night, poor and rich and white and black, but they will never wake again.
And those dead folks would give anything at all for just five minutes of this weather or ten minutes of plowing.
So you watch yourself about complaining.
What you're supposed to do
when you don't like a thing is change it.
If you can't change it,
change the way you think about it."
"When I look back, I am so impressed again with the life-giving power of literature. If I were a young person today, trying to gain a sense of myself in the world, I would do that again by reading, just as I did when I was young."
"Surviving is important. Thriving is elegant."
"I sustain myself with the love of family."
"Let's tell the truth to people. When people ask, 'How are you?' have the nerve sometimes to answer truthfully. You must know, however, that people will start avoiding you because, they, too, have knees that pain them and heads that hurt and they don't want to know about yours. But think of it this way: If people avoid you, you will have more time to meditate and do fine research on a cure for whatever truly afflicts you."
"When we find someone who is brave, fun, intelligent, and loving, we have to thank the universe."
"The problem I have with haters is that they see my glory, but they don't know my story..."
"The ship of my life may or may not be sailing on calm and amiable seas. The challenging days of my existence may or may not be bright and promising. Stormy or sunny days, glorious or lonely nights, I maintain an attitude of gratitude. If I insist on being pessimistic, there is always tomorrow. Today I am blessed."
"First best is falling in love. Second best is being in love. Least best is falling out of love. But any of it is better than never having been in love."
"If one is lucky, a solitary fantasy can totally transform a million realities."
"Anything that works against you can also work for you once you understand the Principle of Reverse."
"Did you want to see me broken? Bowed head and lowered eyes? Shoulders falling down like teardrops. Weakened by my soulful cries.
You may shoot me with your words, You may cut me with your eyes, You may kill me with your hatefulness, But still, like air, I'll rise."
"My mother said I must always be intolerant of ignorance but understanding of illiteracy."
"Every person needs to take one day away. A day in which one consciously separates the past from the future. Jobs, family, employers, and friends can exist one day without any one of us, and if our egos permit us to confess, they could exist eternally in our absence. Each person deserves a day away in which no problems are confronted, no solutions searched for. Each of us needs to withdraw from the cares which will not withdraw from us."
"We spend precious hours fearing the inevitable. It would be wise to use that time adoring our families, cherishing our friends and living our lives."
"While I know myself as a creation of God, I am also obligated to realize and remember that everyone else and everything else are also God's creation."
"I've learned that I still have a lot to learn."
"No one can take the place of a friend, no one."

"Love is like a virus. It can happen to anybody at any time."
"The sisters and brothers that you meet give you the materials which your character uses to build itself. It is said that some people are born great, others achieve it, some have it thrust upon them. In truth, the ways in which your character is built have to do with all three of those. Those around you, those you choose, and those who choose you."
"Each of us has the right and the responsibility to assess the roads which lie ahead, and those over which we have traveled, and if the future road looms ominous or unpromising, and the roads back uninviting, then we need to gather our resolve and, carrying only the necessary baggage, step off that road into another direction. If the new choice is also unpalatable, without embarrassment, we must be ready to change that as well."
"Love life. Engage in it. Give it all you've got. Love it with a passion because life truly does give back, many times over, what you put into it."
"When you wish someone joy, you wish them peace, love, prosperity, happiness... all the good things."
"Instead, pursue the things you love doing, and then do them so well that people can't take their eyes off you."
"To those who are given much, much is expected."
"You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them. Try to be a rainbow in someone's cloud. Do not complain. Make every effort to change things you do not like. If you cannot make a change, change the way you have been thinking. You might find a new solution."
"My life has been one great big joke, A dance that's walked, A song that's spoke, I laugh so hard I almost choke, When I think about myself."
"If you are always trying to be normal, you will never know how amazing you can be."
"Poetry puts starch in your backbone so you can stand, so you can compose your life."
"To be left alone on the tightrope of youthful unknowing is to experience the excruciating beauty of full freedom and the threat of eternal indecision. Few, if any, survive their teens. Most surrender to the vague but murderous pressure of adult conformity. It becomes easier to die and avoid conflict than to maintain a constant battle with the superior forces of maturity."
"The main thing in one's own private world is to try to laugh as much as you cry."
"The human heart...tells us that we are more alike than we are unalike."
"Live as though life was created for you."
"You may write me down in history With your bitter, twisted lies.You may trod me in the very dirt, but still like dust, I'll rise."
"Ain't nothin' to it, but to do it."
"While one may encounter many defeats, one must not be defeated."
"Pretty women wonder where my secret lies. I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size But when I start to tell them, They think I'm telling lies. I say, It's in the reach of my arms
The span of my hips, The stride of my step, The curl of my lips. I'm a woman Phenomenally. Phenomenal woman, That's me.
I walk into a room. Just as cool as you please, And to a man, The fellows stand or Fall down on their knees. Then they swarm around me, A hive of honey bees. I say, It's the fire in my eyes, And the flash of my teeth, The swing in my waist, And the joy in my feet. I'm a woman Phenomenally. Phenomenal woman, That's me.
"I don't trust anyone who doesn't laugh."

World - Far More Dreadful Than Pearl Harbour: Americans are dying like cats and dogs
Health • Life • World
Far More Dreadful Than Pearl Harbour: Americans are dying like cats and dogs
Far More Dreadful Than Pearl Harbour: US President Donald Trump has described the Coronavirus as the 'worst attack ever' on America. America has also pointed at China for this.
Trump said that the epidemic had affected America more than the attack on Pearl Harbor of Japan during World War II or the 9/11 attack two decades earlier.
The Trump administration is constantly talking about drastic action against China, holding China responsible for the spread of the virus.
China says that America wants to divert attention from its failure to deal with the epidemic. Since the first case of corona infection in Wuhan, China, 1.2 million people have been infected in the US, and nearly 73,000 people have died.
What did Trump say?
Far More Dreadful Than Pearl Harbour
Speaking to reporters at the White House, Trump said, "This is the worst attack on our country ever. It is worse than the attack on Pearl Harbor and the World Trade Center. We have never had such an attack."
He added, "It should never have happened. It should have stopped at the place of its beginning. It should have stopped in China itself. But it did not happen."
When a journalist asked if you really looked at it as a war attack, Trump's answer was, Coronavirus epidemic is the biggest enemy for America right now.
He said, "I see the invisible enemy like a war. I do not know how it got here because it could have been stopped where it started. But it did not happen."
Along with Trump, his foreign minister Mike Pompeo is also accusing China of hiding information about Corona.
Despite acknowledging the uncertainty about how the corona infection started, Mike continues to say that the virus has evolved in a Chinese lab.
"Both are true. We are not sure about this, but there is enough evidence that it has been prepared in a lab in China," he told the BBC.
China's state media has accused Mike of lying.
US health experts, however, do not agree with Trump's administration and believe that the evidence so far suggests that it has not been prepared in the lab.
Doctor Anthony Fauci, a member of Trump's Corona Virus Task Force, said in an interview that the disease came into existence naturally.
Far More Dreadful Than Pearl Harbour: Why is America blaming China?
In the coming elections, the US President is going to get a tough competition due to the faltering economy. But now the issue of the economy has gone into cold storage due to Corona.
An opinion poll has revealed that two-thirds of the population of America is angry with China at this time, but as many people also believe that Trump has delayed taking steps to deal with the epidemic.
Both Trump and his potential rival Joe Biden of the Democratic Party are engaged in capitalizing on this unpopularity of China in the elections.
While Trump is trying to convince his opponent to be a supporter of China by calling him 'Beijing Biden', the Democratic Party is calling attention to the fact that Trump has praised China and its president dozens of times in the early stages of the transition.

The Diocesan Discernment (or Vocations) process is designed to help you find out whether God is calling you to be part of the formal leadership of the Church.

Примас Угорщини — почесний титул, який належить архієпископу Естергома-Будапешта, таким чином, називається архієпископом-примасом Угорщини.

У часи королівства Угорщина, примас Естергома був також відомий як "Князь-примас", колись користувався великим авторитетом і владою. Таким чином, примас був уповноважений проводити національні собори, був  Святої Римської Церкви, і, отже, мав право, в межах своєї місії (території, яка представлена Папою), мав право носіння хреста перед ним, мав справу безпосередньо з Римом і мав право на відвідування єпископських кафедр і монастирів в Угорщині, за винятком абатства Паннонхальма ().

З 1715 він вважався канцлером і князем Священної Римської імперії. За традицією саме він коронував королів Угорщини.

Q: android: ZoomPicker breaks onTouchListener I've got a webview which makes use of the built in zoom controls, as follows:
wv = new WebView(this);
wv.getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls(true);

Note: this activates two main functions - pinch-to-zoom and invokeZoomPicker() (the latter is only called when a swiping action is done on the view, a simple touch doesn't enable it)

and i also want things to happen when touch events occur, using the following
wv.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {
    public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
        Log.i("touch", "touched!");
        return false;
    }
});

When the WebView loads, and I tap the screen, the log states "touched" every time I interact with the screen, as expected. However, if I do something that would set off invokeZoomPicker() (pinch to zoom doesn't seem to cause this problem, as long as the zoom widget doesn't appear), onTouchListener stops responding to my taps (even after a few seconds, when the widget disappears from view).
To make sure it was invokeZoomPicker(), I edited the second segment of my code as follows:
wv.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {
    public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
        wv.invokeZoomPicker();
        Log.i("touch", "touched!");
        return false;
    }
});

This new onTouch method now only triggers once (as a result of which the zoomwidget appears on the view - and disappears a few seconds later), and then the onTouch method doesn't get called again until the view is reloaded - so it is definitely a problem with the invokeZoomPicker()/Zoom widget
Have I missed some vital piece of code that allows them to coexist, or do I just have to choose which one I can live without?

A: So after running into the same problem myself, I tried to make sense of some of these answers to no avail. The problem at hand is that once the user invokes scroll (not pinch-zoom) (at least for me...), the WebView instance loses its OnTouchListener reference. How did I figure this out? Well...
Webview inherits dispatchTouchEvent() from View.
dispatchTouchEvent calls onTouch() (which is the function not firing that should)
The reason why onTouch() wasn't getting called was, as I said before, that the WebView instance's OnTouchListener was getting set to null for some reason. This can be seen by putting a breakpoint in View's dispatchTouchEvent() method
So to solve this, we extend WebView like so:
import android.content.Context;
import android.util.AttributeSet;
import android.webkit.WebView;

public class TouchWebView extends WebView {

    WebTouchListener wtl;

    public TouchWebView(Context context) {
        super(context);
    }

    public TouchWebView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
        super(context, attrs, defStyle);
    }

    public TouchWebView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);
    }

    public void resetTouchListener() {

        if(this.wtl == null) {
            this.wtl = new WebTouchListener();
        }
        this.setOnTouchListener(wtl);
    }

    @Override
    public boolean dispatchTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {

        this.resetTouchListener();
        return super.dispatchTouchEvent(event);
    }
}

And then we implement our OnTouchListener:
import android.view.MotionEvent;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnTouchListener;
import android.webkit.WebView;

public class WebTouchListener implements OnTouchListener {

    @Override
    public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {

        WebView.HitTestResult hr = ((TouchWebView)v).getHitTestResult();
        //Log.i(TAG, "getExtra = "+ hr.getExtra() + "\t\t Type=" + hr.getType());

        if (event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN) {
            System.out.println(hr.getExtra() + " " + hr.getType());
        }

        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        return false;
    }

}

OnTouch will now fire even after zooming or scrolling

A: I had the same problem, but managed to solve it by setting the listener again in my extended WebView class:
public void invalidate() {
    super.invalidate();
    setOnTouchListener(this);
}

Unfortunately, now I have the opposite problem in that the zoom controls (the plus/minus widget) does no longer receive touch events. There seems to be some exclusivity between having an OnTouchListener and zoom, at least in Android SDK level 8 (Froyo 2.2).
This sounds like a bug to me, but would love to find a workaround.

A: The workaround is pretty simple.
You have to create a custom class, that extends one of the ViewGroup subclasses like LinearLayout. Then override onInterceptTouchEvent - it will be called prior to ViewGroup child's onTouchEvent. It is not very elegant to put a webview control into your custom ViewGroup subclass, and then insert it into activity's view hierarchy - where it is desired, but - it works.

private class OwnedLayout extends LinearLayout
{
    protected OwnedLayout(Context context, AttributeSet attrs)
    {
        super(context, attrs);
    }

    protected OwnedLayout(Context context)
    {
        super(context);
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onInterceptTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev)
    {
        //Put Your code here
        return super.onInterceptTouchEvent(ev);
    }

}

A: A dirty solution is to cover an invisible view on top of your web view and detects touches there, and you have to distinguish if the touch is consumed, or return false to pass touches to underlying web view.

A: Try
youWebView.getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls(false);

It's work for me.

A: This is the closest I could come to a solution to this problem.  I needed to set the input focus to the WebView whenever it was touched.  The only way I could do it was by extending WebView and overriding the onTouchEvent function.  This function gets called even after Zooming is used in the WebView.
public class NewWebView extends WebView {

public NewWebView(Context context) {
    super(context);
}

public NewWebView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
    super(context, attrs, defStyle);
}

public NewWebView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
    super(context, attrs);
}

@Override
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev) {
    boolean consumed = super.onTouchEvent(ev);

    if (isClickable())
        if (ev.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN)
        {
            if (!hasFocus())
                requestFocus();
        }
    return consumed;
}

Don't forget that if you use XML to create your layout, you'll need to change "WebView" to your fully qualified packagename.NewWebView (otherwise you get a confusing ClassCastException if you try to do something like:
      webView = (NewWebView) findViewById(R.id.new_web_view);

A: I think there is some exclusivity, for example, for a 500x500 web view and you zoom it in to 1000x1000, then you touched on it, now what position should it report?
But I really need to get them working together.

A: I had a similar problem where onTouch wouldn't get called after I used pinch to zoom. Inspired by jpeskin's answer, this code worked for me (add it in the class that extends WebView):
@Override
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
    boolean consumed = super.onTouchEvent(event);
    onTouch(this, event);
    return consumed;
}

update:
@Override
public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
    return touchListener.onTouch(v, event);
}

The touchListener is of the type android.view.View.OnTouchListener.

A: I had the same zoom issue as Stijn.V. I used the code in his answer but still had an issue with the touchListener sometimes being set to null. Here's my full webview class, tested on Android 4.0 - 4.3
public class BookWebView extends WebView implements OnTouchListener {

private OnTouchListener mTouchListener;

public BookWebView(Context context) {
    super(context);

}

public BookWebView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
    super(context, attrs, defStyle);
}

public BookWebView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
    super(context, attrs);
}

@Override
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
    boolean consumed = super.onTouchEvent(event);
    onTouch(this, event);
    return consumed;
}

@Override
public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
    return mTouchListener.onTouch(v, event);
}

@Override
public void setOnTouchListener(OnTouchListener l) {
    super.setOnTouchListener(l);
    if(l != null){
        mTouchListener = l;
    }
}

}
For the sake of completeness here's how touchEvent is initialised in my calling activity
bookWebview.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {

        @Override
        public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
            return mGestureDetector.onTouchEvent(event);
        }
    });

A: I have encountered same problem, and i extended WebView and create my own ontouchlistener to avoid this bug. For example:
public class BookknowWebView extends WebView {
private GestureDetector gestureDetector;
    private OnTouchListener mListener;

/**
 * @param context
 * @param attrs
 * @param defStyle
 */
public BookknowWebView(Context context) {
    super(context);
}

/**
 * @param context
 * @param attrs
 * @param defStyle
 */
public BookknowWebView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
    super(context, attrs);
}

/**
 * @param context
 * @param attrs
 * @param defStyle
 */
public BookknowWebView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
    super(context, attrs, defStyle);
}

public void setBookknowOnTouchListener(OnTouchListener l){
    mListener = l;
}

/*
 * @see android.webkit.WebView#onTouchEvent(android.view.MotionEvent)
 */
@Override
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev) {
     mListener.onTouch(this, ev);
    return gestureDetector.onTouchEvent(ev) || super.onTouchEvent(ev);
}

public void setGestureDetector(GestureDetector gestureDetector) {
    this.gestureDetector = gestureDetector;
}

}

A: Works perfectly fine for me. Just use onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) instead of onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event). Works even if setBuiltInZoomControls is set to true.

Rooms With A Boo: Five Spooky (and Haunted) Hotels
Kimberley Lovato 9 years ago
Look closely at the Ghost Bride of the Stanley Hotel. Boo! (courtesy of Visit Estes Park)
It's that time of year again—ghost and goblins and goodies, oh my!
One of America's favorite pastimes is Halloween, a custom that started as a Celtic ritual thousands of years ago. These days October 31, and the weeks leading up to it, are filled with cackling witches, shirtless vampires, and toothy pumpkins, and an estimated 41 million costumed trick-or-treaters take to the streets, parties, and haunted houses to celebrate. Travelers, fear not. Hotels across the country have joined in the fun too, and offer spooky specials for "hallowed" guests. From ghoulish dinners to onsite ghost hunting tours, these five haunted hotels make Halloween travel a scream.
The Driskill is on of America's most haunted hotels (courtesy of Destination Hotels & Resorts)
1. The Driskill (Austin, TX) – This hotel is considered the most haunted building in Austin, and maybe in all of Texas, said to be frequented by the ghost of namesake Colonel Jesse Lincold Driskill himself, a cattle baron during post civil war America. Room 525 is rumored to be the most ghostly on the property. Book it if you dare! From October 28 – November 3, the Driskill is promoting an "All Hallow's Eve" package that includes overnight accommodations, two Batini cocktails at check-in, a trick-or-treat turndown amenity (including a selection of sweets from the 1886 Bakery), prime access to downtown Austin's sixth street (a Halloween hot spot) and preferred reservations for the Driskill's "Mad Scientist" dinner on Halloween night.Package starts at $279. Contact the hotel for booking. Or book online at Hotels.com.
The Doctor is in at the Carolina Inn (courtesy of Destination Hotels & Resorts)
2. The Carolina Inn (Chapel Hill, NC) – Located on the campus of the University of Chapel Hill, NC, this 184 room hotel is a registered historic landmark considered one of America's top haunted hotels. The property's most haunted location is room 256, home of friendly ghost Dr. William Jacocks, a physician who resided in the hotel during the last 17 years of his life. For an added spooktacular value, guests can book the hotel's "Room With A Boo" package, which includes accommodations in room 256, the good doctor's quarters; dinner for two, set for three; and two historical books. Packages start at $480. Check with the hotel for availability. Book online at Hotels.com.

3. Tarrytown House Estate (Tarrytown, NY) – Comprised of two 1840's mansions that were converted into an estate hotel, the historic Tarrytown House Estate is located near the legendary village of Sleepy Hallow. A British ghost investigator once called Tarrytown and Sleepy Hollow "the most haunted place in the world." Come find out during October, the mansion offers a family-friendly "The Blaze Package" that includes accommodations, breakfast for two and two VIP tickets to the famed Hudson Valley "Great Jack O'Lantern Blaze" that wows audiences young and old with its 4,000 illuminated pumpkins. Tarrytown House also offers a more frightening "Horseman's Hallow" package, which includes accommodations; breakfast for two and two tickets to Philipsburg Manor, transformed into a spine tingling experience not suitable for young ones. The Blaze Package starts at $299. Check with hotel for availability or book with Hotels.com
The Stanley Hotel and Room 217 are waiting (courtesy of Visit Estes Park)
4. The Stanley Hotel (Estes Park, CO) – Here's Johnny! Say it and it's not Johnny Carson that comes to mind, at least not on Halloween. As one of the most haunted hotels in the nation, The Stanley Hotel was the inspiration for Stephen King's bone chilling novel, "The Shining" during his stay in room 217 (one of the most spiritually active rooms). The property was also featured in several "Ghost Hunters" episodes. An on-staff paranormal investigator offers a "Ghost Hunting Tour" that teaches guests how to use authentic ghost hunting tools and test their new skills in some of the property's most haunted locations inaccessible to the general public. Ghost tours are popular, so book early. See the Hotel Scoop review of this property.
Sister George haunts here ( photo courtesy of the Inn at Loretto)
5. Inn at Loretto (Santa Fe, New Mexico)- The hotel gets its name from the Loretto Chapel (home of the 'miraculous staircase') situated next door, and the Loretto Academy, a catholic girls' school once located where the hotel now sits, and run by the Order of the Sisters of Loretto. Sister George was a member of the order and legend has it she's still in school. Former hotel employees reported her 'presence' in the late '70s, smelling cigar smoke in the empty restaurant and receiving phone calls from the fourth floor while it was closed for renovations, among other unexplained occurrences. The hotel offers a "Ghostwalker's Package" that includes accommodations for one night, a map, and a copy of the book Santa Fe Ghosts, with tales of the city's ethereal denizens, and entrance for two to Loretto Chapel. BYOC—bring your own courage. Package starts at $210. Check with hotel for availability. Check prices online at Hotels.com. See the Hotel-Scoop review of this property.

SonicAcademy has great online courses...the include the samples you'll need...may need to buy a synth like Sylinth or ANA.
You want to stay away from major keys...you're looking for dissonant cords (that give an uneasy feeling)...so scales like the minor (aeolien) or Phrygian are good candiates.

I'm not sure I understand your question. The audio quality does "what" at random points in a song? Does the quality drop? Can you describe what you are hearing? Switching to mono does "what"? Does it make it sound better?
what version of live and max-for-live?

Ableton_David, it's been over a year since you responded with your "we're working on Live 9" post. Could you at least post again and make the same comment. Let us know you're still alive and care about us.
have you done a search for "live*.exe" (or the mac equivilent for the mac) on your machine? You could have multiple installations and you keep launching the lite version.
@timothyallan...based on the limited searches I did http://www.gearslutz.com/board/music-co ... leton.html, the whole apple thing is BS...again, do you have a reference you can share?
Is it just me or is everyone being a bit cagey talking about Live 9?

Yet Another Planned Parenthood Underage BDSM Video
Tristyn Bloom Contributor
July 23, 2014 8:21 AM ET
Determined to prove that its previous recordings of Planned Parenthood counselors offering dangerous sex advice to underage girls aren't just isolated incidents, pro-life group Live Action released yet another Wednesday — this time from Portland, Oregon.
Live Action has previously released footage from three other clinics — one in Indiana and two in Colorado — showing Planned Parenthood staffers encouraging investigators posing as 15-year-old girls to allow themselves to be hit, choked, whipped, spanked, tied up and chained. The latest video, recorded undercover at the Planned Parenthood Clackamas Center in Portland, continues the pattern.
In uncensored transcripts obtained by the Daily Caller, the girl tells the counselor her boyfriend wanted to try some "kink," although she herself has no idea what that means.
"Different people have different types of fetishes," the counselor explains. "Some guys like feet, and they find that kinky, and maybe they'll wanna suck on your toes during intercourse. Or some guys will even want to, you know, ejaculate into your shoes, which is a little different." (RELATED: Planned Parenthood Schools Underage Girl In BDSM)
From there she goes straight into bondage, explaining that it's very important to have a safe word before allowing her boyfriend to tie her up or to "be the aggressor." She also suggested a variety of role-play scenarios, including "naughty school girl … you dress slutty and maybe don't wear underwear" and "play[ing] the baby thing, where they will put on diapers and … pretend they're breastfeeding."
"It just depends what you guys are comfortable with," she assures the girl. "It is truly important that you're both comfortable with it, or you won't enjoy it. … The only wrong way is if something makes you uncomfortable, and you don't wanna do it. … If you feel like, 'Oh, he spanked me, and I kinda liked it,' then that's OK."
"Some people like being spanked or hit or whipped," she says. She also explained that while the girl is too young to buy the special handcuffs they sell at "porno stores," she and her boyfriend could start out with scarves, "or just the little toy handcuffs." If using actual handcuffs, "you have to trust that your partner will unlock you."
She recommended the girl look into both the "Kama Sutra" and "The Joy of Sex," and noted that "there are educational pornos out there," although, unlike counselors at the other clinics, noted that "you're still underaged."
"Reading the smutty romance novels will give you good ideas," she says.
Nearly half of Planned Parenthood's $1.2 billion in revenue comes from taxpayer dollars, and according to their 2012-2013 report, it spent over $43 million on "sexuality education" that year. "We are the largest provider of sex education in the U.S.," it boasts, "with educators who will reach more than one million young people and adults this year." (RELATED: Report Says Planned Parenthood Enabling Rape, Sex Trafficking, Child Abuse)
"There is no way anyone can justify a counselor telling a fifteen-year-old girl that 'some people like being spanked, or whipped, or hit,'" said Live Action president Lila Rose. "This is not the stuff of sex education, but rather a disturbing ideology consciously being pushed on our nation's youth."
According to Live Action's press release, "Planned Parenthood is poised to receive significant additional funding through Obamacare, including via PREP (the Personal Responsibility Education Program), a $75-million sex education program funded by taxpayers through the Department of Health and Human Services. Planned Parenthood Columbia Willamette, the affiliate that runs the facility in Live Action's latest video, has itself been allocated grants through PREP." (RELATED: Portland Ice Cream Parlor Introduces New Planned Parenthood Flavor)
Planned Parenthood was not available for comment.
"Whether you're liberal or conservative, or even pro-life or pro-abortion, tax-funded 'counseling' sessions directing kids to porn sites and sex shops, and teaching them how to beat and choke each other, are completely unacceptable," said Rose.

This Flag The Netherlands PM Gave To Trump Is The Perfect D-Day Commemorative


This all started with a sugar addiction and a nasty one at that (which I still battle with from time to time – like last night I had 2 cookies from Insomnia Cookies in the East Village – pretty amazing stuff haha). The worst part about the addiction was that I didn't even know how addicted I was until I came up with the Binary Diet. I knew that I had binge tendencies (unable to eat just one piece) and that I was unable to control my cravings on occasion but I didn't really think about it too much until I started tracking what I ate. At the time, I was convinced that I only ate sugar on occasion and that it was only a small part of my diet, however, I was mistaken. By implementing the Binary Diet, I quickly realized that I was eating sugar at least every other day. While many will argue that sugar in moderation is ok, sugar in moderation was not a choice for me, as I would always go overboard. By leveraging the Binary Diet, I was able to go 3 months without sugar, dramatically reduce my carb intake, virtually eliminate caffeine from my diet and improve my health in a number of other areas.

HARDIN - Josh Zipprich of Hardin was selected as a winner in the America's Farmers Grow Communities program, which gives farmers the opportunity to win $2,500 for their favorite local nonprofit organizations.
The Monsanto Fund sponsors the program, and winning farmers designate a local nonprofit organization to benefit from the donations. Zipprich designated Calhoun High School in Hardin to receive the donation.
Zipprich said he was excited to have been selected as the winner for Calhoun County and to have his donation go toward the renovation of the school's gymnasium.
"I feel fortunate for the generous offer by Monsanto Fund to allow me to choose the charity," Zipprich said. "I thought the gym would benefit the whole community. It provided me a lot of memories in the past, and I hope the new gym will do the same for future generations."
Penny Loft, gym renovation committee member, said, "It is a great program, and it is going to a great cause.
"The gym touches many, many people, and having a high school without a gym for so many years is not ideal," she said. "Thanks to the Monsanto Fund and Josh (Zipprich) for helping us make this gym a possibility for all who use it. We now have a beautiful gym that many students and community members will be using for years to come."
The $2,500 donation was awarded at a ceremony last Tuesday at Calhoun High School.
In more than 1,200 eligible counties, farmers can win $2,500 for their favorite community nonprofit. The Monsanto Fund expects to invest more than $3 million in local communities. The program originated with two pilot programs. The first pilot included 139 counties in Iowa, Missouri and Arkansas. The second pilot was expanded to include 298 counties in California, Kansas, Nebraska, North Carolina, Ohio, South Carolina and South Dakota. In total, more than $200,000 has been donated to nonprofits in Illinois.
The America's Farmers Grow Communities program is part of a commitment by the Monsanto Fund to highlight the contributions farmers make to society by helping them grow their local communities. To date, more than 60,000 farmers have participated in the program, which is designed to benefit nonprofit groups such as ag youth, schools and other civic organizations.

Carriera

Club
A 14 anni, Dunfield giocò in un torneo a Keele, dove è stato subito notato dagli osservatori del . All'età di 15 anni, si è trasferito in Inghilterra per unirsi appunto alle giovanili del City. Ha progredito attraverso una buona squadra giovanile, che includeva giocatori del calibro di Shaun Wright-Phillips e Joey Barton. Dunfield ha fatto la sua unica apparizione in Premier League contro il  nel 2001. Tuttavia, dopo l'esonero di Joe Royle e l'arrivo del nuovo allenatore Kevin Keegan, non trovò facili opportunità di continuare in prima squadra.

Nel 2002 è stato ceduto in prestito al Bury, dove sperava di avere un posto in prima squadra. Alla fine del suo periodo di prestito, sebbene Keegan gli offrì un nuovo contratto, chiese di lasciare il City. Successivamente firmò un contratto triennale con il Bury, dove ha totalizzato 74 presenze in campionato durante il suo tempo con il club. Nel gennaio 2005, subisce la rottura della rotula sinistra, in una partita contro Leyton Orient. L'infortunio non è stato trattato correttamente e dopo 18 mesi, provando un tentativo di ritorno ai giochi con il Worcester City, sembrava ormai vicino il suo ritiro. Tuttavia, dopo essere stato visitato da uno specialista in Nord America, ha subito un'operazione e poi è stato detto che sarebbe stato in grado di giocare ancora una volta dopo nove mesi. Ha trascorso gli ultimi quattro mesi di riabilitazione al , e nel luglio 2007 ritorna, firmando un contratto con il Macclesfield Town.

Nel gennaio 2009 firma un contratto con il Shrewsbury Town 65.000 sterline. Nella sua prima stagione ebbe un po' di difficoltà ad adattarsi nella sua nuova squadra, ma nella stagione successiva raggiunse la sua forma migliore, guadagnandosi, di conseguenza, la sua prima convocazione in nazionale

Dopo aver passato una stagione nel Shrewsbury Town, l'allenatore canadese Stephen Hart, ha detto che Dunfield aveva bisogno di giocare ad un livello superiore a quello della Football League Two se avesse aspirazioni di favorire la sua carriera internazionale. Come risultato, un mese dopo aver ottenuto la convocazione in nazionale gli fu concesso di lasciare il Shrewsbury Town.

Mentre il Motherwell stava trattando l'acquisto di Dunfield, gli è stato offerto un contratto da parte del Vancouver Whitecaps, che ha accettato con la consapevolezza che poteva partecipare al campionato della Major League Soccer. Il 10 dicembre 2010, è stato annunciato il suo trasferimento ufficiale al club canadese. Dopo aver fatto 12 presenze in campionato per il club, è stato ceduto al Toronto FC il 14 luglio 2011.

Nazionale
Ha fatto il suo debutto nella nazionale canadese il 29 maggio 2010 in una partita pareggiata per 1-1 contro il Venezuela. Il 1º giugno 2011 segna il suo primo gol in nazionale in una partita amichevole contro l'Ecuador.

Q: Problem with EF4, SQLite, TPT hierarchy and batch insert I've been struggling for a little while with the following issue using EF4 and SQLite ADO.NET provider:
I have a model with a TPT hierarchy: There is an abstract base entity (Source), then first level child entities (SingleSource and MultipleSource), and 2nd level child entities (e.g. FileSource under SingleSource).
In my application I'm creating FileSource objects, and adding them to my context. As long as I call context.SaveChanges() after each Add operation of a new FileSource, everything works fine but when I add several FileSources to my context and then call SaveChanges once to save them all, I get an update exception:

Unable to determine the principal end of the FK_Source_SingleSource_0 relationship.
  Multiple added entities may have the same primary key

I've noticed that when I create new FileSource objects, EF sets their Id to 0 for all of them even though it's an identity field (StoreGeneratedPattern=Identity on both SSDL and CSDL) and I suspect that's the reason why it's failing but i couldn't find any solution yet so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Simon


Spreading east of town, the Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge is one of the largest nature preserves along the Atlantic flyway, attracting hundreds of species of birds, including egrets, herons, geese, swans, and snow geese, not to mention thousands and thousands of migrating ducks. A continuation of the Assateague Island National Seashore across the Maryland border, the refuge contains thousands of acres of marshland, excellent beaches, and a number of hiking and cycling trails. The refuge visitors center (757/336-6122, daily) has detailed information on park activities as well as a small exhibit on Chincoteague's famous wild ponies, which can usually be seen from the Woodland Trail that loops south from Beach Road.

UK abandons plans for online porn age verification
Plans to introduce a nationwide age verification system for online pornography have been abandoned by the UK government after years of technical troubles and concerns from privacy campaigners, reports the Guardian. "The climbdown follows countless difficulties with implementing the policy, which would have required all pornography websites to ensure users were over 18. Methods would have included checking credit cards or allowing people to buy a 'porn pass' age verification document from a newsagent. Websites that refused to comply with the policy – one of the first of its kind in the world – faced being blocked by internet service providers or having their access to payment services restricted." The culture secretary, Nicky Morgan, told parliament the policy would be abandoned. Instead, the government would instead focus on measures to protect children in a much broader online harms white paper. This is expected to introduce a new internet regulator, which will impose a duty of care on all websites and social media outlets – not just pornography sites. She said: "This course of action will give the regulator discretion on the most effective means for companies to meet their duty of care." Despite abandoning the proposals, Morgan said the government remained open to using age verification tools in future, saying: "The government's commitment to protecting children online is unwavering. Adult content is too easily accessed online and more needs to be done to protect children from harm." Despite repeated reassurances from pornography websites and age verification sites that personal details would be kept separate from information about what users had watched, privacy campaigners continued to raise concerns about data security. In addition, earlier this year the Guardian showed how one age verification system could be sidestepped in minutes. See Guardian item and Online harms white paper.
