Adrian is a picky eater. We even have a series of YouTube videos all about him trying things and (almost always) hating them. He was picky before he went on Adderall, but he was picker when he went off. It's been over a year since he stopped taking it, but the number of foods he'd eat was getting smaller and smaller. So we decided to do something about it.
We went with an idea usually used for toddlers. We got him a tray with six spaces in it. Every dinner, we fill up those spaces with a variety of foods. At this point we're only putting in things he likes. If there is something on the table that he'll eat, that goes in one of the spaces. As time goes on, we will gradually add things he doesn't currently like in the hopes that over time he will begin to accept more foods and flavors (so far it appears to be working).

NOT Back to School Day 2018
August 31, 2018 Heather	Homeschool	1 Comment
Monday was the first day of school for the local districts so, as usual, we had a fun final day off.
We started off with pineapple-kiwi-blueberry smoothie bowls for breakfast. The kids were less than impressed. I thought they were amazing.
Jamie and the boys played some Dungeons & Dragons before Cameron had to leave us for the Monday lunch meeting he goes to every week for work.
Jamie, the little guys, and I headed out to the Tower of the Americas.
We squished some pennies.
And tried to find our house using one of the pay viewer thingies up on the observation deck.
The view of San Antonio from the observation deck is pretty awesome. We live in a very beautiful city.
We watched three short 4D movies. It's funny how getting sprayed with water from an ocean feels different from getting sprayed with water from a mammoth sneeze even though it's really all the same water.
Adrian got a color change cup, Fritz got a long tube of pucker powder, and Jamie got a cattle brand from the gift shop.
We went to an Asian buffet for lunch. Adrian ate his favorite food (rice and cheese) and Fritz ate approximately his weight in rolls and sushi.
We went to a really amazing comic book store. Fritz spent lots of time studying the D&D books. Both boys got starter Pokemon card decks and Adrian got a Teen Titans Go! comic book set.
We finished off the day by going to Bubble Waffle Bar. Ani came with us (Cameron was at work). There's not much there we can eat there, but what we ate was still really cool. The Dole Whip was pretty normal, but the cotton candy wrapped chocolate, coconut, and mint chocolate chip ice cream was unique and really good.
Check out previous years' Not Back to School Days: 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2012, 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017. (I missed blogging about Not Back to School Day in 2011 and they went to public school in 2013.)

Ireland, Part Five
August 27, 2018 Heather	Family	Leave a comment
We returned the CPAP machine Jamie had been loaned. They didn't charge us anything!
Jamie and I walked down to the river next to where Jamie's mum lives.
We picked (and ate) lots of delicious wild blackberries.
We did Kinder Surprises.
We went a long way and ended up in Tipperary.
We went to Cashel Farmhouse Cheesemakers and learned about the history of their farm and how they make their blue cheeses. We also ate a ton of blue cheese.
We went to the Rock of Cashel. It's an amazing, huge medieval religious fortress.
The pictures don't do the place justice. It is truly awe-inspiring.
When we came down from the Rock of Cashel, there was a group of young buskers playing traditional music (on the way up a young man was playing a fiddle).
We went to Kilmallock, a medieval town that still has several stone structures and part of the wall. Their Catholic church is gorgeous.
We went all over the Abbey. We were even able to climb some very old stairs up to the second floor.
The old Church of Ireland building is now a burial ground.
So that was Monday and Tuesday.

We Tried Plated
January 2, 2018 Heather	Family	Leave a comment
A few weeks ago we tried Plated, our fifth meal kit service. Once again we got three two-serving meals and made them for lunch.
1.) Most of the ingredients for each meal were packaged in plastic bags making it easy to pull everything out at once for cooking.
2.) Good size portions so everyone had plenty.
3.) Very convenient.
4.) The instructions were colorful and easy to follow.
5.) It was relatively easy to find the gluten free options on their website.
6.) The vegetables were very fresh.
1.) The meals are expensive compared to getting the ingredients on your own.
2.) Various people in the family didn't like some of the parts of the meals.
3.) One ingredient in one meal was white wine and this really disturbed Fritz.
4.) The roasted red peppers container opened in the bag and so the oil was all over everything when we opened it.
The box arrived the day they said it would. It got here pretty late, but still before the cut off time. In the top of the box was the three recipe cards. Then the big vegetables and bags of ingredients. On the bottom was the meat, very well sealed.
All together, the box contained quite a bit of food. I liked how the ingredient bags were rolled down so they took up as little space as possible in the refrigerator.
The first meal we made was Steak au Poivre with Crispy Fingerling Potatoes. Other than not knowing how to pronounce the name of it, it was quite good. Fritz helped me make it and chose music by the Transiberian Orchestra to cook to. They sent fingerling potatoes, a shallot, a garlic clove, 2 steaks, baby spinach, cracked black pepper, white wine (this disturbed Fritz and he refused to eat the sauce because of it), heavy cream, and dijon mustard. As with all meal kits, we provided the olive oil, salt, and (regular) pepper.
I prepared the vegetables. I minced the shallot and divided it into two piles and minced the garlic. I cut the potatoes in half lengthwise and tossed them with oil, salt, and pepper.
Meanwhile, Fritz got the steaks ready to cook by patting them dry and seasoning them on both sides.
We seared the steaks and wilted the spinach (it was just garlic, salt, pepper, and spinach).
The steak turned out excellent. The sauce was good, too, but because of the white wine in it (no matter how much we explained that the alcohol cooks off), Fritz wouldn't eat it. The potatoes were delicious. I liked the spinach, too, but at least Cameron did not.
The second meal we made was Piri Piri Chicken with Crispy Potato Chips and Sauteed Kale. Adrian helped me with this one. He chose songs by Sabrina Carpenter to accompany our cooking. They sent dinosaur kale, Yukon Gold potatoes, roasted red peppers, 2 lemons, a shallot, 3 cloves of garlic, spice mix (cayenne, oregano, and smoked paprika), red wine vinegar, chicken thighs, and parchment paper.
I cut up the vegetables. I trimmed the kale, cut the potatoes into rounds (I used our mandolin for that rather than a knife), cut up the lemons, chopped the shallot, minced the garlic, and chopped up the roasted red pepper.
I made the marinade. Some of it went on the chicken and the rest was saved to be used as a sauce. The recipe suggested pureeing the sauce if we wanted to. I am glad I did. The flavors blended very nicely.
We baked the chicken and potatoes. The potatoes ended up as perfect baked potato chips. Even if we don't recreate anything else from our Plated meals, we'll make these again. If I had paid attention when ordering, I would not have gotten this meal because I do not like dark chicken meat or chicken with bones in it or chicken with skin on it. I'm very picky when it comes to chicken. It wasn't bad, but if I did this one again, I'd make it with boneless skinless chicken breast.
I was really looking forward to this meal because when we lived in DC we used to go to a place called Nando's. This is the type of food they served. The flavor wasn't as good as Nando's, but it was close.
The third meal we made was Pan-Roasted Pork Chop with Maple Pan Sauce, Roasted Vegetables, and Truffled Walnuts. Cameron helped me make it. He chose songs from Hamilton to play while we cooked. They sent herb mix (sage and thyme), carrots, parsnips, fingerling potatoes, dijon mustard, pork chops, baby spinach, walnuts, crushed red pepper, maple syrup, truffle zest, and apple cider vinegar.
I cut up the vegetables while Cameron prepared the pork. I sliced the parsnips and carrots and halved the potatoes lengthwise.
Cameron made the sauce while I made the glazed walnuts.
The pork was very good. The sauce was okay. I wasn't a big fan of the parsnips. The walnuts were pretty gross. The maple syrup and truffle flavor just wasn't good. This was definitely our least favorite of these three meals.
After five meal kit services, Home Chef is still our number one choice. Plated ended up ranked right in the middle of the pack.
1. Home Chef
2. Blue Apron
3. Plated
4. Hello Fresh
5. Sun Basket

We Tried Home Chef
November 20, 2017 Heather	Homeschool	Leave a comment
For our fourth meal kit service, we tried Home Chef. We got three two-serving meals and like when we tried Blue Apron, Hello Fresh, and Sun Basket, we made them for lunch so there was plenty for those of us at home during the day.
1.) Each meal was packaged in a plastic bag (plus meat separately) making it easy to pull everything out at once for cooking (I really liked the look of the bags since I could see what was in them without breaking the seal).
4.) The instructions were easy to follow.
5.) Allergens are clearly marked so it was easy to find the gluten free meals we could choose from.
6.) While we didn't choose to get them, you can select smoothies, quick lunches, and seasonal fruit for a small extra cost which is pretty cool.
7.) Came with a nice binder to hold the recipes.
8.) The vegetables were extremely fresh. In fact, we didn't make the salad for 6 days after the box arrived and the produce was still in very good shape.
2.) The chicken needed to have the gross bits trimmed off (I am really picky about the grossness left on chicken after it is cut up).
The box arrived about 6pm the day they said it would (expected delivery between 8am and 8pm). It was raining that day and the outside of the box was a little bit soggy. Inside everything was perfectly dry. The top of the box contained ice packs and meal bags and large produce. The meat was double wrapped in the bottom between more ice packs. The whole inside was wrapped in some sort of insulating material to, along with the ice packs, keep everything the right temperature during shipping.
The box included a nice three-ring binder to hold the recipes. I thought that was a nice touch, and definitely unexpected. Inside the binder was a few pages of general cooking information (this would be excellent for someone wanting to learn to cook) and instructions on how to recycle the packing materials.
Three meals plus the recipe binder equals a lot of stuff in that box! I really like the plastic containers rather than paper bags since I could see everything in them before time to make the meals.
The first meal we made was Korean Pork Medallions with Siracha and Slaw. Adrian helped me. He put some YouTube parody songs on his computer for us to cook to. They sent seasoned rice vinegar, green onions, garlic cloves, red fresno chile, pork tenderloin, tamari soy sauce (labeled gluten free), light brown sugar, siracha, chopped ginger, toasted sesame oil, and slaw mix.
This was an easy meal to make. I sliced the green onions and chile and minced the garlic.
I sliced the pork and Adrian helped me make the marinade. While the pork marinated, Adrian helped me mix together the slaw. Both the marinade and slaw dressing were easy enough that Adrian could mix them.
This meal was so incredibly good. The flavors were amazing, the pork was tender. We dished up the pork medallions with the slaw on the side garnished with chile pepper rings and green onions. It was spicy, but not overly so. We'll definitely make this again!
The second meal we made was Coconut Jasmine Rice Bowl with Fried Plantains and Corn Pico de Gallo. Adrian helped me again. This time we put Christmas music on the Echo (don't judge). Included in the kit was coconut milk, a shallot, a jalapeno pepper, jasmine rice, a plantain, black beans, a lime, a roma tomato, cilantro, and corn. Cameron's had me save all the little containers holding ingredients. He loves little containers (he gets that from me).
Adrian made the coconut rice by combining the rice, water, and coconut milk. It turned out so good.
I cut up the vegetables. Since this was a vegetarian meal, there was a lot to chop up.
Adrian did the stirring while things cooked and I put together the corn pico de gallo.
This meal was so amazing! The taste of the rice was incredible and the corn pico was quite nice. The fried plantains were quite nice. Cameron really, really liked them.
Our third meal from Home Chef was Blackened Chicken Caesar Salad with Cripy Shallots. The box included grated parmesan, a shallot, two peeled garlic cloves, two romaine hearts, heirloom cherry tomatoes, two boneless skinless chicken breasts, blackening seasoning, white rice flour, mayonnaise, white wine vinegar. Fritz helped me make this meal. We listened to music by Taylor Swift on the Echo while we cooked.
Fritz prepared the blackened chicken while I chopped the vegetables.
I wasn't expecting such an amazing meal out of something sounding so basic as a salad. The shallot rings were tossed with rice flour and then fried until they were golden brown and crispy. This added a nice bit of flavor and crunch. It also made me very happy because gluten free meals are often labeled gluten free after the fact. Basically, they happen to have no gluten in their ingredients so they can marked gluten free. Usually a chicken caesar salad has croutons in it, but they were replaced with the crispy shallots. It made the meal a little bit more special because it's gluten free-ness seemed more intentional.
This meal was so good. The dressing was super simple and easy, but also very tasty. The blackening seasoning was delicious (though cooking it did set off the smoke detector which caused Lola to demand that we allow her to herd us outside to safety).
So now we have tried four meal kit delivery services. Home Chef has taken over as number one. It was better than Blue Apron. I could totally see using Home Chef on occasion again.
Rankings, so far:

We Tried Sun Basket
November 8, 2017 Heather	Family	1 Comment
The third meal kit service we tried was Sun Basket. We got three two-serving meals and like when we tried Blue Apron and Hello Fresh, we made them for lunch so there was plenty for those of us at home during the day.
1.) Each meal was packaged in a bag (plus meat separately) making it easy to pull everything out at once for cooking.
2.) Huge portions so everyone had plenty.
4.) The instruction book was nicely made.
5.) Meals were marked to say whether they were gluten free (gluten free plan costs slightly more than the "regular" plan).
2.) The instructions did not give measurements so they are impossible to replicate.
3.) We didn't like the food very much.
4.) Some of the produce was less than fresh.
The box included a nice book of all the recipes. At first, I was excited about that, but when I looked closer I discovered the recipes do not include the amounts so they cannot be made without the kit. The vegetables and things were packaged in individual bags and the meat was in the bottom of the box between ice packs.
The first meal we made was seared steak and porcini sauce with sweet potatoes and chard. Fritz helped me with it. He picked music by Twenty One Pilots to accompany us while we cooked. They sent dried porcini mushrooms, sweet potatoes, chard, flat-leaf parsley, lemon, rosemary, top sirloin steak, shallots, and unsalted butter. I forgot to pull the chard out before I took this picture.
I prepared the vegetables. First I soaked the mushrooms in hot water and then pulled them out and sliced them, saving the mushrooms. The sweet potatoes were cut into half-moons. I stripped the chard leaves from the stems and then coarsely chopped the leaves and stems, keeping them separate. Then I made the gremolata by removing the parsley leaves from the stems and adding lemon zest.
Fritz cooked the sweet potatoes and chard while I cooked the steak. Then we made the porcini sauce together.
The steak was delicious and the porcini sauce was quite good, too. The sweet potatoes and chard, however, were not very good. Cameron hated it and Cameron will eat pretty much anything. We threw quite a bit away because no one wanted it.
The second meal we made was golden coconut curry with tofu, spinach, and black rice. Fritz helped me again. We listened to songs by Sabrina Carpenter (our old standby) on Alexa while we cooked. The bag included black rice, peeled garlic, ginger, tofu, red bell pepper, cremini mushrooms, lime, curry spice blend, coconut milk, and baby spinach.
I prepared the tofu and vegetables. I minced the garlic, chopped the ginger, cut up the tofu into cubes, sliced the bell pepper and mushrooms, and cut up the lime.
We cooked the tofu curry by mixing everything (except the rice which was prepared separately) together. It was very easy to make, especially with everything chopped and ready to go.
We assembled our bowls with the black rice topped with the curry. The tofu was decent tofu. Cameron wasn't a fan of the consistency. The taste though… it just wasn't that good. Quite a bit was leftover when we were done partly because Sun Basket gives huge portions, but partly because no one wanted seconds (or, really, to even finish their first serving).
Our third and final meal was spicy chicken tinga tostadas with avocado and queso fresco. Cameron helped me with this one. He picked random songs to play on Alexa as we worked. The bag included an onion, bay leaves, peeled garlic, chicken breasts, tinga sauce base, corn tortillas, an avocado, lime, cilantro, and questo fresco.
I prepped the garnishes. I cut up the avocado, sliced the lime, and chopped the cilantro. Eventually that chunk of queso fresco got crumbled.
I chopped and cooked onion and garlic and then added the sauce base to the pan. After it came to a boil, I added the chicken and cooked them in the sauce. Once they were done, I shredded the meat and then added it back to the pan and thoroughly mixed it with the sauce. Meanwhile, Cameron crisped the tortillas in hot, oiled pan.
We made tostadas by putting the meat and sauce on the crisped tortillas and topped them with the avocado, queso fresco, and cilantro and squeezed lime wedges over them. All of the food in this meal got eaten.
This one was the best of the three Sun Basket meals, but it still wasn't great. It was marked as being spicy and they certainly weren't kidding. We live in south Texas so we're used to spicy food, but this was extra spicy. It left our mouths burning for a long time. There was not way to adjust the spice since it was all already put together in the tinga sauce base.
Whether we'd ever use Sun Basket again or not was an easy answer: No. We just didn't like their meals enough. It's probably a great choice for people who want to expand their horizons and try foods they'd never otherwise try. For us, it just didn't work out. So, after three meal kit services, Blue Apron is still our first choice.

We Tried Hello Fresh
October 16, 2017 Heather	Family	3 Comments
For the second meal kit service, we tried Hello Fresh. We got three two-serving meals and like when we tried Blue Apron, we made them for lunch so there was plenty for those of us at home during the day.
2.) The instructions included pictures to make it easy to see what we were doing in that step.
4.) The taste was good.
5.) Generous portions.
6.) Meals were marked to say whether they were gluten free.
2.) Some of the vegetables were looking kind of sad.
3.) The instructions put too many directions for different parts of the meal in each step.
4.) For several weeks of menus I looked at, only two regular meals were gluten free. The third was always a "premium" meal meaning it costs an extra $10 ($5 per serving) to select that one.
The box showed up at about 11 on the date I had requested. They said it would arrive between 8am and 8pm.
Inside the top of the box was the recipe cards and some advertising flyers. The next layer down was three bags containing the vegetables and other things needed to make each meal. The bottom layer was the meat in vacuum packed packages sandwiched between ice packs.
The meal kits looked pretty cool packaged the way they were.
We made the first meal, butter-basted rib-eye steak with thyme-infused mashed potatoes and asparagus the day it arrived. The asparagus was in perfect condition. The potatoes were a little weird, though, because one was big and the rest were small. In addition to the Yukon gold potatoes and asparagus, they sent thyme, chives, a lemon, milk, garlic herb butter, and rib-eye steak.
Fritz helped me with this meal. We told Alexa to play upbeat music on the Echo and got to work. Fritz spent quite a while pulling a teaspoon of the leaves off the thyme.
After I got the potatoes on to boil, I prepped the vegetables. I cut the woody ends off the asparagus, chopped up the chives, and cut the lemon into wedges. I started the rib-eye cooking in a pan on the stove. I spread the asparagus on a cookie sheet, drizzled them with olive oil and seasoned them with salt and pepper, and put them in the oven to roast for a few minutes.
The mashed potatoes were amazing. We simmered the leftover sprigs of thyme in milk for several minutes and then added that thyme-infused milk to the potatoes to mash them. The thyme leaves Fritz pulled off were added to the mashed potatoes. That may have been the best part of the meal and we will definitely be making thyme-infused mashed potatoes again.
This meal was delicious. It was a premium meal, though, so we paid an extra $10 for it. I'm not so sure it was quite that delicious.
We made the second meal, Beef Rice Noodle Bowls with carrots, cucumber, and peanut sauce, two days after the box arrived. They sent a Persian cucumber (it was not in the best condition), two peeled cloves of garlic, a lime, shredded carrots, cilantro, green onions, thai seasoning, peanut butter, siracha, white wine vinegar, soy sauce, rice noodles, and stir-fry beef. The soy sauce made me a bit nervous since the meal was labeled gluten free, but most soy sauce is not. We took the risk that their labeling was correct and, thankfully, none of us got sick so it was, in fact, gluten free soy sauce.
Adrian was my helper for this meal. We put songs by Sabrina Carpenter on the Echo and got to work. I prepped the vegetables and meat while he pulled the leaves off the cilantro and did some dancing. I sliced the cucumber and put it in the vinegar with some salt and sugar (the kit did not include the sugar needed to complete the meal). I minced the garlic, chopped the green onions and separated the whites from the greens, and cut up the lime. I added the thai seasoning, some of the garlic, and some sugar to the beef to prep it for cooking.
I boiled the noodles for about 16 minutes (they were different from the ones in the picture and from the directions given on the card – they included a note with how to adjust the instructions) while prepping the vegetables and cooking the meat. Then I made the peanut sauce and saved half and tossed the noodles with the other half. Then the food was all ready to eat.
While the Beef Rice Noodle Bowls were good, they just weren't that good. The peanut sauce was kind of blah and the thai seasoning on the beef didn't add much flavor. The carrots were served with it just raw which was odd. We squeezed the lime wedges on them so they weren't too bad.
We made the third meal, Figgy Balsamic Pork with roasted green beans and rosemary potatoes, on Thursday. The kit included a shallot, Yukon gold potatoes, green beans, chicken stock concentrate, rosemary, pork tenderloin, fig jam, and balsamic vinegar. The green beans were looking kind of iffy by the time we made this meal.
Ani and Adrian did most of the work for this one. Adrian chose to play Sabrina Carpenter's music on the Echo while they cooked. They finely chopped the rosemary and shallot and cubed the potatoes.
Ani seared the pork tenderloin on the stove before finishing it in the oven along with the green beans and potatoes.
The figgy sauce was surprisingly easy to make and the pork was cooked very nicely. Even though some of the green beans were on the edge of still being good, once they were roasted they were fine for eating.
I'm not a huge fan of pork, but this turned out quite nice. I was pleasantly surprised by the taste of the fig sauce. I'll likely make the pork and sauce again, but I might use apricot preserves instead of fig next time.
While we enjoyed trying out Hello Fresh, I doubt we would use them again. The main reason is the cost, but also because I preferred Blue Apron. While, Hello Fresh was good, Blue Apron's instructions, ingredients, and taste were all just better when comparing the two.

What is a Candidate / Employee / Contractor ID number?
HRA Cloud delivers centralised and complete records management without cumbersome paper files, maximising protection and compliance for current and archived candidates, employees, contractors and work health and safety matters. Every record managed through HRA Cloud has a dedicated profile where you can track key details and manage critical documentation.
To ensure the optimisation of HRA Cloud, it is important that all records are allocated a unique ID number as the system relies on this number when completing a range of important processes. For example, a unique Employee ID number will allow for the system to automatically identify and link documentation to a specific employee according to their unique ID number. If an employee does not have a unique ID number, users may need to take the time to manually assign documents to an employee record.
A unique Employee ID number can be any numbering system that best suits your organisational structure. For example, some payroll technology systems automatically assign employees with an ID number. For businesses which have a pre-existing payroll system set up, it is recommended that the same employee numbering system is used within HRA Cloud.
Employee ID numbers are either manually input into HRA Cloud or imported into the system in bulk via our importers. Kindly note that HRA Cloud does not support Employee ID's with spaces. Please see the How can I create a new employee? article for more detailed information.
The below instructions will demonstrate where a user can locate and/or alter an Employee ID number. The same steps can be applied for other records types but will vary slightly if you need to locate candidate or contractor IDs as you will need to go to the relevant module and tabs.
1. First, login to HRA Cloud. You should automatically see the Employee Management module.
2. Select the Employees tab if it has not been selected already.
3. Search for the employee by first name or last name. You can filter the search options by branch and status.
5. Click on the appropriate employee name to view the employee record.
6. The Details page should appear automatically. Please click Edit under the Employee Details tabs.
7. Scroll to the bottom of the page to the Employment Details section. You should now be able to view and/or change the Employee ID: field.
8. Once you've made the required changes, click Update to push the changes through.
An internal ID number is a unique ID that HRA Cloud automatically generates. In our importers, it can be used as a unique record identifier, in the absence of an Employee ID. Furthermore, when advising Client Experience of issues relating to records, it is always advisable to provide the internal ID to highlight where the issue is occurring.
The below example will demonstrate where to locate an Employee record's internal ID number. The same steps can be applied for other records types but will vary slightly if you need to locate candidate or contractor IDs as you will need to go to the relevant module and tabs.
1. As with above, when you login to HRA Cloud, you should automatically see the Employee Management module.
4. Click on the appropriate employee name to view the employee record.
5. The Internal ID number is located in the address bar at the top of the web browser. The unique number for each employee record is located after the letters "id=".
*Please Note* this internal ID number is generated by the system and cannot be changed.
*Important Note* - for clients that have purchased our Meridian Integration functionality, please be aware that changes to employee IDs may be detrimental to data integrity within both systems. As the employee ID is the unique identifier used in to map and identify employees within the systems, any changes made in either system should be immediately reflected to avoid issues.
For example, if a change of Payroll ID is made to a pre-existing employee in Meridian, please ensure that the same change is made to the employee ID in HRA Cloud before the next synchronisation.

The current smoking rates for Hispanics were 7.5 percent among youths aged 12 to 17, 29.9 percent among young adults aged 18 to 25, and 21.7 percent among those aged 26 or older.
There were no statistically significant changes between 2007 and 2008 in the rate of current illicit drug use for any racial/ethnic group among persons aged 12 or older.
Between 2008 and 2009, the rate of current use of illicit drugs among young adults aged 18 to 25 increased from 19.6 to 21.2 percent, driven largely by an increase in marijuana use (from 16.5 to 18.1 percent).

Learn Music from BobbyJoe
Bobby Joe Harlow
The Bobby Joe Harlow Band
"San Antonio is my Home and Music is my life".
Bobby Joe Harlow is a renowned name in Texas and his band 'The BOBBY JOE HARLOW Band' is possibly one of the most busiest bands in the country today.
Bobby Joe has been playing music professionally around the world since 1977. Having formed and being part of numerous popular bands such as 'FEEDBACK' , 'LES MOORE BAND', 'JOE BLOW', and having worked with legendary artists, Bobby Joe is no less than a legend himself.

Absolutely love the 917F3 Titleist fairway. Selection was great from Globalgolf. Had the exact shaft I was looking for and the mint condition was truly mint. Great savings from this site. I am a repeat customer and always receive great service.
My experience with GlobalGolf is very good. Excellent web site and easy order process. Clubs arrived Ven in excellent packaging and the Woods were in excellent condition. Terrific pricing and selection.
The Titleist 917F3 fairway wood features the new SureFit CG slot in the sole. Players are able to alter the CG location with a weight cartridge. By changing the position of the weight, users alter ball flight left, right, higher, and lower.
A variable thickness face insert on the Titleist 917F3 fairway wood also creates more ball speed on off-center hits.
The 917F3 has a more compact shape versus the 917F2. It also offers more workability as well as lower spin and launch comapred to the 917F2.


So you already know about the Young at Heartland Summer Showcase on Friday at 1. And, of course, Heartland's 10-Minute Play Festival, including "Back Porch" pieces from Bloomington-Normal's own Joe Strupek and Bruce Boeck, continues its run this weekend, including a panel discussion with the playwriting contest's judges after Sunday's matinee.
I am guessing you probably know that the Illinois Shakespeare Festival opens its summer season TONIGHT, with a new take on the Reduced Shakespeare Company's hilarious "The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged)," wherein three crazy guys play out a whole lot of Shakespeare in a very short time, including a 30-second "Hamlet" and then another 30-second "Hamlet" backwards.
"Complete Works," directed by Bill Jensen and starring Festival favorites David Kortemeier and Tom Quinn, opens tonight, with "Romeo and Juliet," directed by Doug Finlayson, taking the stage at Ewing Manor tomorrow. Both shows, along with "The Winter's Tale," opening in July, will continue in repertory through early August. This year, the ISF is also offering all kinds of backstage tours, a "Twelfth Night" for kids, and a bunch of different pre-show options in the lovely courtyard space. And it all starts tonight!
Also in town, there is a band concert and ice cream social scheduled for Franklin Park tonight at 6; "Seussical," the 2011 High School Summer Theatre musical under the auspices of Normal Parks & Rec, continues at the Connie J. Link Ampitheatre, with performances tonight through Sunday; the Normal Theater offers a mini-Elizabeth Taylor film fest, with "National Velvet" tonight and tomorrow and "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" Saturday and Sunday; and the Children's Discovery Museum in Normal launches a "Potterpalooza" on Friday to celebrate everything Harry Potter.
Over in Champaign-Urbana, a fun and fizzy production of "Hairspray," the Broadway musical that reminds us all that we can't stop the beat, continues at the Station Theatre*; the Champaign-Urbana Theatre Company finishes up its run of "West Side Story" on the Parkland College stage; and the University of Illinois Summer Studio Theatre offers one "QED" and three performances of "[title of show]" over the weekend at Krannert Center for the Performing Arts.
All of that means you have plenty of options for entertainment tonight through Sunday. And I may even see you out there if you happen to choose the same ones I do!
*I noticed on the Station's Facebook page for "Hairspray" that this show is sold out for most of its run, with tickets still available only for their July 2 and 8 performances. So if you want to see that one, you'd better act fast and be open for July 2 or 8!

Sealaska Mourns the Loss of Xaad kíl Birth Speaker Jane Kristovich (K'ujúuhl)
One of the few remaining birth speakers of the Northern Haida dialect of Xaad kíl, Jane Kristovich (K'ujúuhl), joined her ancestors on August 18, 2021 at the age of 93.
Kristovich was a treasured speaker of Xaad kíl who gave her time and knowledge generously to generations of her people through her involvement with language and dance groups, community events and even on film.
Kristovich was born in Massett, B.C. in 1927. Her maiden English name was Adams. She is the older sister of Haida Elder Dolores Churchill, and the two were featured in the Canadian feature film "Edge of the Knife," in 2017. Co-directed by Gwaai Edenshaw and Helen Haig-Brown, the film was the first to be spoken entirely in the Haida Language. Kristovich enjoyed the emphasis of full immersion and continued to speak primarily in Haida with her sister until her passing. She also lent her voice to the documentary film featuring Robert Davidson called "Now is the Time." This documentary film was directed by Christopher Auchter and released in 2019.
As a young girl, Kristovich placed herself among the elders in her family in Massett, listening to and retaining her heritage language. When, as an adult, her life took her far from her homelands to live in Indiana, she would narrate her daily chores and activities to herself in Xaad kíl to practice. When she reached her elderly years, she moved to Washington state and befriended other Haida elders in the area and continued to speak her language.
Náanii Jane, as she was known, gave her knowledge and support to numerous language conferences and projects. Recently she gave Haida names at Hydaburg's Xántsii Náay Immersion School graduation in Hydaburg. In Washington, she was also an active volunteer with the group Haida Roots Language and Youth Arts Program. Her voice is captured on dozens of videos available on YouTube and Facebook sharing various phrases, stories and songs.
"It was a distinct honor to be in her presence and hear her wit and wisdom," said Ben Young, who is the director of Xántsii Náay Immersion School. "To experience her bold advice along with her kindness and humorous comments was absolutely grand. Her legacy will live on through the voices of our Haida children. They will carry her sarcasm, songs, stories, prayers, and the love she had for them in their hearts."
Sondra Segundo is the founder of Haida Roots, a Seattle-based nonprofit that connects local Haida to resources and opportunities for sharing culture and learning Xaad kíl. She shared the following reflections and a poem in Xaad kíl.
"Jane Kristovich was my Haida language teacher/mentor," Segundo wrote. "I was starving and Jane fed me. I was insecure and Jane encouraged me. The journey of re-learning our language can be frightening, but just being in Jane's presence made me feel welcomed and at peace.
"Ben Young introduced me to Jane. It was the first time hearing anyone speak Haida in a very long time. It healed my broken heart. From then on, this beautiful and wise Eagle took this Raven under her wing. Every moment with Jane was precious. She told the best jokes that made us laugh from our bellies. Now her love for us can be felt beyond realms.
"Jane's love and teachings will continue to nurture the new generations of Haida language learners/speakers for many years to come.
Ja haw'áa Jane uu Xaad díi sk'at'atgán. Thank you so much Jane for teaching me Haida.
Dáng salíi díi Gitsáang. I will miss you.
Dáng salíi íitl' Gitsáang. We will miss you!
Dáng díi kuyáadang. I love you.
Dáng íitl' kuyáadang Jane. We love you Jane!"
Kastovich was a mother to five children, and is survived by two of them. She is also survived by eight grandchildren, nine great-grandchildren, eight great-great grandchildren and numerous nieces and nephews.

Dr. Bisson's main area of research is the investigation of utilization of carbon and energy sources in yeast, with a specific focus on how eukaryotic cells detect energy sources in their environment and prioritize use when presented with a mixture of substrates. She is using the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a model system in which to conduct these studies, because of the ease of genetic manipulation of this organism. Her research is important from a very fundamental perspective, in adding to our knowledge of the mechanisms of regulation of metabolism, but also has broad application in both enology and medicine. Work conducted in her laboratory has led to the identification of the first eukaryotic glucose sensor, the SNF3 gene, and to the discovery of a large multigene family of hexose transporters, the HXT (HeXose Transporter) genes of Saccharomyces. The analogous gene family in humans has been shown to play a role in the on-set of adult diabetes.
Dr. Bisson served as Department Chair from 1990-1995; her term saw the dedication of The Jacob Research Center at the Oakville Experimental Field Station. Her contributions to the advancement of knowledge of yeast biology in the natural grape juice environment were acknowledged by the award of Honorary Research Lecturer for the 50th Annual Meeting of the Society of Enology and Viticulture in 2000. Dr. Bisson held the Maynard A. Amerine Endowed Chair in Viticulture and Enology from 1997 to 2008. Dr. Bisson regularly teaches classes ranging from VEN 124, Wine Production and GGG201A, Advanced Genetic Analysis, to VEN 270, a course on reviewing a scientific manuscript for advanced graduate students. Dr. Bisson is the Science Editor for the American Journal of Enology and Viticulture. Dr. Bisson received the Excellence in Teaching Award from UC Davis Extension in 2002, the Excellence in Education Award from Associated Students of UCD in 2004 and the DEVO Excellence in Teaching Award in 2012. She was also the recipient of the prestigious James M. Craig Lectureship from Oregon State University in 2011. The textbook that she co-authored, "Principles and Practices of Winemaking" won Le Prix en Oenologie from the Office International de la Vigne et du Vin in 1998. Dr. Bisson has served a total of three years as the Chair of the Academic Senate of the Davis Division of the University of California.

CityLift Parking ("CityLift"), the leading provider of automated parking lifts in the U.S., announced it has completed its Series C capital round with Dundon Capital Partners, LLC ("DCP"). The investment is the largest completed for any U.S. automated parking lift company in the market today. Specific terms of the transaction were not disclosed. CityLift plans to use funds to accelerate its growth and invest in technology innovation to address the rapidly growing automated parking lift industry. John Zutter, Jason Kulas and Jeff Vanderbilt from DCP will be joining CityLift's Board.
"We are delighted to be partnering with DCP," says Scott Gable, CEO and co-founder of CityLift Parking. "This investment is a vote of confidence in CityLift as the leading player in the future of parking."
This funding builds on an exceptional year for CityLift. CityLift was recognized by Inc. Magazine as the 66th fastest growing company in the United States and the fourth fastest growing company in the construction industry. With its CityLift Puzzle™ design, CityLift became the only company approved for semi-automated parking lift systems in Los Angeles. It completed the largest project in the country, a 235-space project in Oakland, CA, and the first 5-level puzzle lift in the U.S., in Nashville, TN. The company is building the first fully automated system in the Pacific Northwest and the first parking lift system in Salt Lake City.
"DCP's experience with rapidly growing companies complements CityLift's current capabilities and will allow it to expand into new markets and attract new customers," says Mike Ghielmetti, CityLift Board Member and co-founder.
The funding is also well timed to catch the industry growth wave. Automated parking lifts are rapidly being accepted by cities, developers, architects and builders as a means to use less space, build faster, and reduce cost versus building conventional parking.
"CityLift has demonstrated itself as a clear market leader in the parking space and fits well with our focus on opportunities with strong leadership, attractive and sustainable margins and secular growth trends. We are excited to partner with Scott and Mike and the team going forward," says John Zutter, Partner of Dundon Capital Partners. Mr. Zutter will be joining CityLift's Board as its Chairman.

Posted on July 15, 2014 by Becka in About, How To.
When people think of salad, iceberg lettuce accompanied by a few tomatoes and cucumbers comes to mind. Nothing to write home about. However, summer is a great time for making and enjoying salads that go beyond the old classic. By calling upon some of the great produce available to us in the summer, you can create light and refreshing meals in no time. Some of the best salads are made with ingredients you have on hand, and you can always change the flavor profile by experimenting with different vinaigrettes. Here's my take on 3 simple summer salads.
Tomato & Cannellini Bean Salad with Basil, Parmesan and Red Wine Vinaigrette I almost always have sweet cherry or grape tomatoes at home. They're easy to throw into a salad, soup, or vegetable side dish, and I particularly love them for snacking. Their acidity pairs nicely with creamy cannellini beans (another pantry staple) in this lunch favorite.
A little Parmesan adds some salt, and basil freshens things up. Finally, gently tossing everything with a little red wine vinaigrette really boosts the flavor. I happen to like this salad best at room temperature.
Corn is at its best during the summer months so I'll grab a few ears to grill or roast.
Then simply cut the kernels from the cob and toss with tomatoes, avocado, scallions, cilantro and lime juice. I love some tartness to my salads, but if you find the lime to be overwhelming, a drizzle of good extra virgin olive oil should balance everything out.
While this salad relies on fewer seasonally dependent ingredients, its crispness makes it a nice choice for summer.
It's a bit more involved than the first two because it requires cooking and shredding chicken, but you can always prepare a large quantity of chicken ahead of time and use it for BBQ sandwiches, melts, or soup in addition to this salad.
Then it's just a matter of thinly slicing or shredding savoy cabbage, carrots (I had baby on hand), red bell pepper, and cucumber. Mint and cilantro leaves give it great freshness and flavor. If you've got some basil in your garden that would fit right in as well.
Finally, a vinaigrette with Asian flavors gives the salad a nice savory quality and peanuts round it out with a good crunch and creaminess.
Now you've got no excuse to skip salad. Sometimes just the very thing for a hot summer day is a light refreshing salad.


LONDON — There is a growing divide within the Bank of England about if and when the central bank should raise interest rates back to the level they stood for seven years before last summer's emergency post-Brexit rate cut.
Several members of the bank's rate-setting Monetary Policy Committee have spoken publicly in recent days, and it is very clear there is a big split in the thinking of the committee's members.
That became even more clear on Wednesday when Jon Cunliffe, who sits on the MPC as deputy governor for financial stability, made clear that he does not support a rate hike anytime soon, citing concerns about slowing consumer spending, which he believes currently trumps the surging inflation caused by the pound's slump since the referendum — which has itself been a driver of slowing spending.
Consumer spending "is slowing as households' real incomes are squeezed by higher inflation, we expect some of that slowing to be offset by growth in business investment, growth in exports. And I want to see how that plays out," Cunliffe told the BBC radio programme Wake Up To Money during a visit to the North East of England on Wednesday.
"We do have to look at what's happening to domestic inflation pressure, and I think that, on the data we have at the moment, gives us a bit of time to see how this evolves."
Cunliffe's remarks put him firmly on the side of Governor Mark Carney, who in his Mansion House speech last week said that "now is not yet the time" to raise rates. This is not a huge shock as Cunliffe is often regarded as one of the governor's key lieutenants and is unlikely to directly contradict Carney in public.
Inflation currently sits at 2.9%, well above the 2% target mandated by the government, while GDP growth in the first quarter of 2017 was just 0.2%.
The likes of Cunliffe and Carney, as well as Gertjan Vlieghe, who is probably the most dovish — inclined to cut rates and loosen policy — member of the MPC believe that the inflation surge since the vote is not likely to be sustained for any great period and instead are focusing on the weaknesses in spending.
On the other side of the coin are Ian McCafferty and Michael Saunders — the two remaining members who voted to hike rates in this month's 5-3 vote to hold (the third, Kristin Forbes, has now left the bank) — and Chief Economist Andy Haldane. Haldane, just after Carney's speech, made clear that he is very close to backing a rate hike in the near future.
The developing split in the MPC has become so large that some banking analysts are forecasting that a rate hike could come as early as August, the next time the committee meets.
Japanese banking giant Nomura, for instance, said last week that it had decided to change its view on rates and now expects "the MPC to raise interest rates by 25bp on 3 August. With the Bank growing increasingly intolerant of above-target inflation, it has begun to feel that weaker data would now be needed to prove the case for keeping policy on hold, rather than stronger data being required to justify higher rates."

Zerodha announced the launch of its direct mutual fund platform – Coin
By Odisha Diary bureau On May 25, 2017
Bhubaneswar: Zerodha, India's leading technology-driven brokerage firm, today announced the launch of its direct mutual fund platform – Coin and shared its overall growth numbers.
Zerodha has grown tremendously in the past one year, adding clients at a rate of 144 % (FY 16-17). Zerodha currently has a user base of over 2.86 lakh across India.
In Odisha, Zerodha has offices in Bhubaneswar and Cuttack. It has grown at a rate of 159 % for FY 16-17 with a client base of over 5000, with touchpoint of 1 branch office and 1 partner office.
In Bhubaneswar, Zerodha has over 1000 clients and has grown at a rate of 170% for FY 16-17. Speaking more on the business development, Nithin Kamath, Founder & CEO, Zerodha, said, "The investor participation in India is still very shallow; around 5 million investors who have traded once a year and not more than 1 million Indians who have traded once a quarter; less than 0.01% of India's population. We have been able to make inroads, though. To attract our first 90,000 clients, it took us five years, but with the launch of our zero brokerage offering on equity investments and continuously improving technology offerings we have been able to quickly increase our client base to over 286,000 in the last 12 months."
On Coin
Zerodha Coin is a platform that let the customer buy mutual funds online, completely commission-free, directly from asset management companies. The mutual fund bought through Coin will be in demat form, with a convenience of one portfolio across equity, mutual fund, currency. Zerodha will charge a flat subscription fee of Rs 50 per month, irrespective of the number or value of mutual fund transactions. One can start, stop or modify SIPs anytime they want and the first Rs 25,000/- worth of investments would be free.
"For an informed investor, buying mutual funds directly is the best option. SIP of Rs 5000 monthly invested for 25 years in direct vs distributor can potentially save Rs 28 lakh as commissions. Buying direct mutual fund in demat also gives the convenience of a single portfolio view," Nithin adds.
To manage the growing needs of its clients, Zerodha currently has 22 branches, 70 partner offices and 5 support/call & trade offices in India.
On Rupee Tales
Zerodha also recently took a momentous step to nurture young minds with Rupee Tales – a set of 5 story books which attempts to familiarise children above 7 years to basic financial concepts. Zerodha has used storytelling with vibrant illustrations as a medium to convey these concepts.
Nithin further said, "Zerodha is committed to improving financial literacy in India. Our educational initiatives, such as Varsity and Trading Q&A are a testimony to this. We are taking this commitment further with Rupee Tales. It is our earnest attempt to creatively inculcate basic financial awareness among children. The concepts covered in Rupee Tales pertain to financial inclusion; pivotal to the cashless and paperless economy India is striving for. A large part of the 'financial inclusion for all' dream is dependent on how the younger generation adapts to it."
Each book deals with a specific topic, peppered with lively characters, and vibrant illustrations. The concepts covered include
1. Savings,
2. Banking & Inflation,
3. Taxes,
4. Insurance, and
5. Stock Markets
Karthik Rangappa, author of Rupee Tales & VP- Educational Services, Zerodha, added, "The idea to write Rupee Tales came to me when my 7-year-old daughter kept asking me where I work and what I do. I realised it was not easy to explain what the stock market is or, for that matter, basic finance to Meera. During a casual chat at work, we realised there was no material available to familiarise kids to basic finance. Being India's leading financial services firm, we somehow felt it was our responsibility to change this, and lo and behold, Rupee Tales was born".
The stories were conceptualised in-house at Zerodha. The Rupee Tales box set can be ordered from rupeetales.com, is priced at INR 470/- only.

This historic holiday house was built in 1856, and is reportedly haunted by twelve spirits. Passing motorists have made many of the reported sightings associated with the building, including a spectral figure toppling from the roof to their death. Prior to the twentieth century, a viewing tower had been built on the roof, leading to the belief that someone had been pushed or fell to their death while it was still in use. On several occasions, passer-by's have called authorities after seeing a fistfight under a large fig tree in front of the property, but when police arrive, the figures have mysteriously vanished. More recently, it is believed that a drive who passed away in a nearby automobile accident has been seen wandering through the historic house.


Free Translation Online > Chinese > How does the chinese or japanese language work?
Question by I'm a noun: How does the chinese or japanese language work?
I'm confused… I've heard there are tens of thousands of characters in the Chinese language. I've heard that an educated person in Chinese needs to learn around 6000 characters? How is a person supposed to remember over 6000 letters and then use them in words. That sounds crazy! I'm a little confused on how the language is structured. In English there are 26 letters and different combinations make different words, but I've heard in Chinese one character can mean a whole word. Also how is Japanese structured? Is it the same as Chinese or is it different.
This is going to confuse you even more. Japanese uses 2 phonetic writing systems (hiragana and katakana). A third system of Chinese characters (kanji) are used in combination with hiragana when writing Japanese words. You must be able to read around 1850-2000 characters in order to read a Japanese newspaper and to be considered literate at a basic level.
Most technical and medical terms in Japanese are written using kanji.

I am studying IOLI crackme0x02. It is clear to me that rewriting the jump at 0x8048451 with no instructions the crackme can be patched. However, I want to understand better what the code does. My problem is that I am unable to find where the entered password is located.
I interpreted what radare2 is showing that there are 3 local variables.
Since I am not yet familiar with radare2, I put a breakpoint in gdb after the scanf (0x0804842b), and inspected the local variables. It seems that neither they, neither the address they are pointing to are the password.
Where is located the entered password?
because in gdb x/4x usually prints 4 bytes.
It's after the scanf() function it can get a bit confusing however I can explain this for you as I reversed this binary back to it's C code without the source.
Here we can see values being "moved" into memory at the base pointer minus 0x8 and minus 0xc. Remember that the 'h' means hex and local means is just the hex value minus the value of ebp or the base pointer. ebp stands for Extended Base Pointer.
Remember that computing something using registers is faster than computing it from memory so before each operation the compiler is going to try to move what it can into the registers to make it's calculations.
We move ebp-0xc -> 0x1e into the edx register then we load the effective address (lea) of ebp-0x8 -> 0x5a.
The add instruction adds the two values and saves them to [eax] which is now the same as a pointer to ebp-0x8 since it's saving it to memory we can assume we are replacing an existing variable with a new computed value because we move the value return from add to the same location in memory effectively overwriting it.
You may not be familiar with the imul instruction but it simply multiplies two integers. We are multiplying the value of eax which is the return value of the add operation (582 or 90 + 492) then storing the value in eax overwriting it's previous value of 582. Thus we are executing (a + b) * (a + b) or 582 * 582.
We then move the value you enter with scanf() from memory into eax and compare it to (a + b) * (a + b). If the jump afterwards is not equal to zero it will go to 0x8048461 showing invalid password otherwise it will jump to valid password. It will exit if the password is valid or invalid.
Hope this helps and good luck with you reverse engineering journey!
0x804856c being the address of the format string (here, %d), and ebp-local_1 the offset where your result is stored.
As for you x/4x issue, radare2 will print you 4 words, in hex, namely 0x00000000 0x08048330 0x00000000 0xf7e1a72e.

Two weeks ago we saw United Airlines grind to a halt for well over an hour due to technical challenges with the booking system, so severe that at one point they were forced to issue tickets by hand.
Last week it was the Office of Personnel Management. They are a government agency that investigates people's backgrounds for eligibility for security clearances. My personal data and literally everyone who has ever held a clearance since 2000 was compromised – most likely by China. This week it seems to be that Ashley Madison (the online dating site for people looking to cheat on their spouse) is the latest victim of an attack. An anonymous hacker conducted this one as he has an axe to grind about the company making false claims about the security of the data its customers enter.
From national entities, to private companies, and professional services to interpersonal relationships, we have become seemingly dependent on IT infrastructure. I can't remember the last time I actually walked into a bank, and I'm fairly certain Ashley Madison has streamlined the process considerably for those too busy to search the physical world for a fellow adulterer. Hand written airline tickets? My guess is they are still trying to figure out who was really on what plane. The impacts of disabling the NYSE for even a few hours are severe. Yet, we managed to build all of these systems without that technology in place.
A "cyber attack" is a disruption to the convenience-based technology on which we have become dependent. In most cases, it is that and nothing more.
generally associated with prolonged power and convenience outages that get people hurt or killed. Over longer periods, it is the inability to get food and clean water. Rest assured that FEMA and state agencies have a plan to deal with this potential as well… We need only look to Katrina to see how effective we can expect that plan to be.
I am not trying to minimize the real impact of a long-term network shut down. We would expect that there would be many casualties from the ensuing civil unrest. Corporations spend billions on cyber security. Their profit margins (the reason they exist and can provide jobs) depend on it. When we compare that to the expenditures to prevent workplace violence, physical security threats, and threats to the people they employ, those expenditures are minimal.
Strangely, in the pre-computer based economy, people were the source of mission critical functions and transactions, and pencils, paper, and smoke signals were simply commodities used to pass that information. In the automated world of today, the system operator and maintainer is the commodity, it is the ability to transfer relevant information that has become the mission critical link.

Vernon Jail is a temporary holding facility managed by the Vernon Police Department. The police department is responsible for keeping the peace in the city and ensuring that the residents are safe at all times.
They do this by identifying suspicious persons, vehicles, or activities; investigating a crime; responding to emergencies; enforcing traffic laws and conducting traffic accidents; filing crime reports; and arresting those who have committed an offense or in the act of committing an offense.
Those who have been arrested within the city and its surrounding neighborhoods will be detained at Vernon Jail for up to 12 hours only.
Persons who have been sentenced by a judge to remain in custody due to felony charges will be transferred to Huntington Park Police Department.
Arrestees will be booked upon arrival. Taking the arrestees' fingerprints, mug shot, and checking of personal belongings are some of the things that happens during booking.
A bail bondsman can go to Vernon Jail to sign out a defendant after the defendant has been booked. A defendant will not be released from custody without having his identity checked and recorded first.
What will happen to the defendant after the bail has been posted?
After the bail has been posted and the defendant has been booked, he or she will be released from Vernon Jail.
It is important to note that since the period in which the defendants are kept within the premises is shorter than most jails within the Los Angeles County, the booking process here will be quick.
As the primary reason for bail, the defendant has to come back to court for his future trials including arraignment or the defendant's first court appearance.

How do I create a table of words with the number of times they occur and sort them in order of decreasing frequency?

A: You can count words in the input document the following way:

*

*Get all text nodes (variable txtNodes). For performance reason you can limit
the choice to nodes containing something else than just "white" characters
(normalize-space()).

*Extract individual words and save in words variable.

*Group these words by upper case of their content (for-each-group).

*For each group print:

*

*The word (like in a dictionary, first letter upper, the rest - lower).

*Number of its occurrences (count(current-group())).

*Sort the printout on # of occurrences and (as the second-order key) alphabetically.

Below you have example XSLT code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
  xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
  <xsl:output method="text"/>

  <xsl:template match="/">
    <xsl:variable name="txtNodes" select="//text()[normalize-space()]" as="xs:string*"/>
