I am a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and started my career as a TV news Journalist. Later, I went off camera and worked in Communications, Public Relations, and Marketing. In 2005, I took on a new career role, at the age of 37, called motherhood. My choice to be a stay-at-home mom eventually led me to nurture my passion for travel and storytelling in a new way. I started the Hines-Sight Blog in 2011 and began writing luxury travel for Skimbaco this past summer. I have finally found the perfect job for me.
I am a Carolina girl. I have lived all over North Carolina and now live in Raleigh with my husband and two children.

I joke that I need a sash that says "Ambassador for the State of North Carolina." It is a gorgeous state that can give visitors both an urban and a rural setting within a 20-minute drive. Our mountains are majestic, and our coastline is serene. Bald Head Island is my most favorite place on earth. It is only accessible by ferry, and the minute you step on the island, you are on a coastal paradise. I also adore the artsy mountain city of Asheville, North Carolina, home to the Biltmore Estate. Asheville is a unique, funky, natural playground with a huge dose of luxury.
Dining in small, intimate neighborhood restaurants on the left bank of Paris I experienced one of my best Skimbaco moments. My love for truffle oil truly began in Paris. Or having afternoon tea in a luxury hotel, and enjoying a scone and devonshire cream. My four favorite tea experiences have been in Victoria, B.C, London, Atlanta, Georgia and Chapel Hill, NC. The South can do tea. I think most of my Skimbaco moments include indulging food in a luxurious destination.
Truthfully, I believe every vacation is perfect as long as I love my hotel or my rental home. Yes, I plan my trips based on where I want to stay, then the rest falls into place. My ideal vacation would be Europe. I have a particular fondness for England and Germany.
Do you like to eat in or out? Your favorite restaurant?
Since my dad was in the restaurant business, I support local. I'm casual in my everyday life, so I adore a brew pub with outstanding food. For entertaining in my own home, I like to keep it simple so I can enjoy my guests. I am known to make a very good banana pudding. Would you expect anything else from a Southerner?
How does your ideal home look like?
My ideal home is a Tudor-style house on a tree-lined neighborhood street, but in an urban setting where I could walk to my favorite neighborhood eatery or local market.
How do you define Skimbaco Lifestyle? What it means personally to you?
Skimbaco means living life to the fullest in everything I do. I write about luxury travel here, but I don't live the lifestyle of jetting around the globe every minute. Instead, I'm living a normal life in Raleigh, but you can bet I live like a tourist in my hometown.
I do dream of traveling the world, one luxury hotel at a time. I think every hotel has a story, and I want to tell it. I wouldn't mind being back in front of the camera, too. Print doesn't always capture my true personality. It is also my dream to see my kids grow up and travel with them as adults, too. As an older mom, I realize time is precious; that is why I live my life to the fullest every single day.


Richard Bergman, PhD, received the Albert Renold Award from the American Diabetes Association for his outstanding work training new generations of diabetes researchers and facilitating scientific investigation in the field. Director of Cedars-Sinai's Diabetes and Obesity Research Institute and the Alfred Jay Firestein Chair in Diabetes Research, he has trained and mentored numerous PhD students and postdoctoral fellows in basic and clinical science. Many of his students have gone on to make significant contributions of their own to the study and treatment of diabetes.
Sumeet S. Chugh, MD, has been awarded a $2.36 million grant by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute to develop prevention strategies for sudden cardiac arrest, which kills an estimated 300,000 Americans each year. With the new grant, Dr. Chugh — associate director of the Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute and the Pauline and Harold Price Chair in Cardiac Electrophysiology Research — and his team will study patients aged 35–59 in an effort to predict who is most likely to experience sudden cardiac arrest, which has less than a 5 percent survival rate.
Kimberly Gregory, MD, MPH, director of Maternal Fetal Medicine and vice chair for Women's Healthcare Quality and Performance Improvement in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, received a grant to launch a study into the healthcare priorities of pregnant women, funded by the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute. The nonprofit organization is authorized by Congress to fund research that helps people make informed healthcare decisions and improves healthcare delivery and outcomes. The expressed priorities of mothers will be compared among various communities, including racial and ethnic groups, educational levels, and women with or without previous childbirth experience.
Stanley C. Jordan, MD, director of Pediatric and Adult Nephrology, Kidney Transplantation and Transplant Immunology, and director of the Kidney and Pancreas Transplant Center, received Cedars-Sinai's inaugural Prize for Research in Scientific Medicine (PRISM) for his groundbreaking contributions to the treatment of organ transplant patients. Dr. Jordan's research led to a drug therapy protocol that significantly reduces the risk that a patient's body will reject a transplanted kidney. Thanks to his work, 60 percent of patients once considered unsuitable for transplant due to the risk of rejection can receive kidneys. The PRISM award recognizes outstanding scientific or medical breakthroughs by Cedars-Sinai faculty, particularly bench-to-bedside scholarship.
Neel R. Joshi, MD, clinical assistant professor in the Department of Surgery, received the 2015 Dr. Kenneth Adashek Surgical Excellence Award in June. The annual honor, which includes $25,000, is presented to a surgeon who has completed a fellowship within the past 10 years and who epitomizes surgical excellence, among other exceptional qualities. It is named for Kenneth W. Adashek, MD — a longstanding attending surgeon at Cedars-Sinai and chairman of the Division of Surgery from 1990 to 1991.
Debiao Li, PhD, director of the Cedars-Sinai Biomedical Imaging Research Institute, leads a team that has been awarded a $3.3 million grant from the National Institutes of Health to develop a noninvasive, radiation-free magnetic resonance imaging technique for detecting myocardial ischemia. The condition is a reduction in blood flow that commonly results from coronary artery disease and can lead to heart attack, so early diagnosis could help save lives, according to Dr. Li. Coronary artery disease is the most frequent cause of death for men and women worldwide.
Robert J. Siegel, MD, and P.K. Shah, MD, were honored by the American College of Cardiology in March. Dr. Siegel — director of the Heart Institute's Noninvasive Cardiac Laboratory and the S. Rexford Kennamer, MD, Chair in Cardiac Ultrasound — received the Distinguished Teacher Award. Dr. Shah — director of the Oppenheimer Atherosclerosis Research Center and the Shapell and Webb Family Chair in Clinical Cardiology — was named a master of the college.
Biostatistician Mourad Tighiouart, PhD, was awarded $1.7 million by the National Cancer Institute to study ways to make cancer clinical trials safer and more effective. Dr. Tighiouart, associate director of the Biostatistics and Bioinformatics Research Center at the Cedars-Sinai Samuel Oschin Comprehensive Cancer Institute, will focus on Phase I and II clinical trials that simultaneously test two or more chemotherapy or biologic agents, an increasingly common therapy for cancer patients. His goal is to identify dose combinations that are safe, well-tolerated, and effective.
Jennifer Van Eyk, PhD — director of Basic Science Research at the Barbra Streisand Women's Heart Center, director of the Advanced Clinical Biosystems Research Institute, and the Erika J. Glazer Chair in Women's Heart Health — has received a $500,000 Grand Challenge Award as part of the Cardiovascular Genome-Phenome Study, a collaborative research effort spearheaded by the American Heart Association. She and her team will advance their study of blood protein biomarkers in people of European, African-American, and South Asian descent. The researchers hope to discover protein biomarkers that can predict cardiovascular risk.
Shaomei Wang, MD, PhD, a research scientist at the Cedars-Sinai Board of Governors Regenerative Medicine Institute, has received a $4.9 million grant from the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine to advance her work on retinitis pigmentosa, a degenerative eye disease that causes blindness and affects 150,000 people nationally. The grant will support Dr. Wang's preclinical studies that center on injecting human neural progenitor cells — similar to stem cells — into the eyes of patients. When used in animal models, this therapy has been shown to slow retinal degeneration and preserve vision.

It's Mother's Day, and while I may be biased (aren't we all), I think I have the best mom ever. She has taught me so much, and continues to inspire me, guide me, and encourage me through all of life's twists and turns. I wish I could be with her today, but these pesky boards have me walled up in my apartment. (I actually wrote this post last week and saved it for today because I knew I'd be studying). Since I can't be there to thank her in person for all she's done for me, I really wanted to send her something in appreciation. I first started with the idea of chocolate-raspberry truffles, which I'm sure my mom would love but they need to be refrigerated and therefore are not mail friendly. Then I thought I'd make toffee, but I made this at Christmas and while it was delicious, it's way to easy to eat all of it in one day (and then regret doing that). Then I thought about the fact that my mom, like me, is back in school. Speaking as a student myself, sometimes we just need a cup of coffee. I'm personally not a big coffee fan (diet coke is one of my guilty pleasures), but when I'm too tired to turn another page in my notes, coffee has been my friend.
I finally decided on these chocolate almond biscotti because they are perfect for a student, who can enjoy them with a cup of coffee during some late night studying. They also happen to be very mail friendly because they are sturdy and keep for a long time. If you'd like, you can pop them in the freezer and they will keep even longer. They are also delicious, but not so over the top that you will find yourself sneaking back to eat more and more – they are really best enjoyed dipped in coffee (although my mom loves chocolate, so I can't really make any guarantees :-)). So thanks Mom for everything you have done for me, and for inspiring me with how hard you're studying and how much your learning! I hope this biscotti make your late nights a little more enjoyable! Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there – you are truly appreciated!
1. Preheat oven to 325°. In a small bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt.
2. If using chocolate squares, coarsely chop them. Melt the chocolate in the microwave for 2 minutes, then stir to melt all the pieces.
3. Beat butter and both sugars together on high. Add the eggs and beat well. Then add the melted chocolate and vanilla. Slowly add the flour mixture, and mix thoroughly. Add the slivered almonds, as the last mix in.
4. Transfer dough to a floured surface and divide into 2 equal pieces. If the dough is too sticky, add a bit more flour. Roll each piece of dough into a log about 10 x 2 inches, and place on a baking sheet about 3 inches apart.
5. Flatten the rolls slightly by pressing down on them with a spatula. Bake at 325 for 40-45 minutes.
6. Remove rolls from oven and allow to cool for 15 minutes. Then transfer to a cutting board and cut each roll diagonally into about 16 pieces. (*A very sharp knife worked better than a serrated one for me).
7. Lay pieces back on the baking sheet, and bake (still at 325°) for an additional 20 minutes.
8. Finish by drizzling with melted chocolate if desired. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks or freeze for future use.

Thanks for stopping by my blog, Jacqueline! Your biscotti look fantastic! I love making my own, and I really like the flavors you used in these. Your photography and blog are just great, and I'm so glad to have found you! 🙂 Have a nice weekend.

Oh man, this is too much.
However, you should try to avoid using the word 'cute' and 'Bin Laden' in the same sentence.
"However, you should try to avoid using the word 'cute' and 'Bin Laden' in the same sentence."
I hope when they find Bin Laden, they cute him realllll gooooood!
That link wasn't loading for me. But is it the same as this one?
Craig, yep it's the same one.
Come Mister Taliban, turn over bin Laden... Man I was rolling on the floor. That was hysterical.


In this article, we consider the representations of poverty within consumer culture. We focus on four main themes – social exclusion, vulnerability, pleasure and contentment – that capture some of the associations that contemporary understandings have made with poverty. For each theme, we consider the portrayals of poverty from the perspective of key agents (such as marketers, media, politicians) and then relate this to more emic representations of poverty by drawing on a range of contemporary poverty alleviating projects from around the world. We conclude with a set of guidelines for relevant stakeholders to bear in mind when elaborating their representations of poverty. These guidelines may act as a platform to transform marginalising representations of poverty into more empowering representations.

Minecon happened in 2013, and finally the custom map panel that I was a part of was posted on the teammojang youtube channel. So you can see the video in full right here! Of course I'm on it with a bunch of awesome people. We talk about all things map making including some answers about HB3… sort of. In any case it was a nice new year present for me, and I suppose for you if it's something you wanted to watch!
So happy new year, 2014 is going to be awesome.
This webpage didn't exist last year. It's come a long way from its beginning only 8 months ago. Many people asked "where can I play all your maps?" So I decided to make a place where they were all in one place, a place where you can comment directly on the maps and where I could read it, a place that I could post stuff about what I'm doing next and a place that's organised and easy to understand.
Well, I got some of those things right with this page. To be honest when I started making maps I never would have thought I would have grown to the point where I would even need a website like this, but here it is, averaging 5-10 simultaneous viewers at any one time, and hundreds of visits every day, I am happy and surprised at what it's become. My youtube channel has obviously become on the back burner since I've started doing a lot more heavy map making, especially now with stuff like Herobrine 3 that I'm working on. But I am still here, plugging away. I should though reiterate that this isn't a job for me, I do it all for fun. I have a full time job elsewhere so if I'm too tired to make maps or whatever then I certainly wont and I'll play some games instead. But I do enjoy making them which is why I continue to do so.
Herobrine 3 did originally plan to release around this time but the stuff we're doing in that map (sorry, no voice acting at this stage) take a lot of time. The bosses are epic if I do say so myself and certainly are something I don't think anyone has done to this scale before. And finally there are my own projects that I am also working on. One such start up was inspired after I played rsmalec's Tiny Minecraft mAPP. We are now collaborating on that project together and it's pretty unbelievable to be honest. Sometimes I worry though because even on my computer it can chugg sometimes… there is a LOT of redstone in this one. It certainly wont be playable on low end pcs… or even high end laptops probably… but it's something that people have wanted for a really long time and I think can be played again and again.
I leave you with this screenshot of a little diagram that I was using for a while to help with the development of this map and thought I would share it with you as a little present. Enjoy and see you in 2014.
Some people already know this, it was mentioned at Minecon 2013. But I was asked to help Hypixel with Herobrine 3. I am tasked with some redstone, some boss mechanics and some story building. Those of you who have played my maps before know I enjoy a good story (if sometimes a little convoluted, I'm looking at you Eronev 2) so I am hoping to flesh out the Herobrine legacy a little bit. It's looking bigger and better than any of the previous Herobrine maps so far so you should definitely be excited.
As a little teaser, here is the redstone for the first boss that I worked on. What you can see there is all me, it's certainly unlike any boss you've seen before and I'm really looking forward to watching people play it and enjoy a Herobrine map with a healthy dose of Jigarbov inspiration inside.
What about my own projects? Something might be in the works, but it's too early to tell if it's something that will be able to be done yet. It will certainly have to wait until Herobrine 3 is done though. Keep an eye out for it.

Q: SCRIPT70: Permission denied on JQuery Ajax Post I've encountered this weird error lately. Here's the flow of the entire process.

*

*There is a JQuery ajax post call to a website that will refresh the contents of a div. It will pass in the parameters to that website and will return the HTML script.

*If the post is successful, it will first clear the div and rewrite it using the return value that was retrieved from that website.

The error occurred on point 2.
Here's the weird thing:
In my machine it is working fine (Windows 8) and also in the virtual machine (Windows 10). I used the same browser (IE 11 and Edge) for both. However, my colleague was not able to do  point 2 because he got the client side error SCRIPT70: Permission denied. He was using Edge.
I will post part of the code in my next update. But so far I've checked it in terms of security but none really.
How do I resolve this?
UPDATE
Here's the code that calls one website (or aspx) via JQuery Ajax Post, and retrieves and updates the div.
function RefreshDiv(isChild) {
  var data = {
    ActionType: "AJAX",
    Action: "Refresh"
  };

  $.post("RefreshDivContents.aspx", data, function (result) {
    if(result != '') {
      var divItems;

      if(isChild) {
          divItems = window.parent.$("#TopDiv").find("#DivItems");
      }
      else {
          divItems = $("#DivItems");
      }

      divItems.empty(); // error hit here.
      divItems.append(result);
    }
  });
}

UPDATE #2
I updated the sample code for more information. Also, I placed where the error occurred but I don't know why it hit there. It should clear out the items only.
UPDATE #3
Based on Jacob's reply, I got curious as to what is the protocol and port numbers of the two iframe src's. Below is the result based on the console.

A: This looks problematic:
divItems = window.parent.$("#TopDiv").find("#DivItems");

I take it from this snippet that the key issue is with Same-origin policy. A document in one origin cannot update content in another. For example, in this case it looks like your code may be running in an iframe and trying to update divs in the parent document. If the two documents have the same origin, there's no problem.
This is why I'd asked about URLs. It's essential to consider what the URLs are for the two documents to find a solution to get the script working:
If it's a matter of document A being from http://example.com and document B being from http://www.example.com, document B merely has to run document.domain = 'example.com'; to change origins.
If the two documents have different port numbers but the same domain & protocol, they can both set their document.domain to the same domain to scrub away the port number from their origins, making them compatible.
If one uses HTTPS and the other uses HTTP, then it's surprising that the non-secure frame loaded at all, and even if it did, you'll have a hard time accessing the other document.
If the two have utterly incompatible domain names, you'll have to implement CORS.
To summarize, you need to understand the same-origin policy which is a real pain but protects users from malicious scripts, then build your app to accommodate it.

CRAFTS OF INDIA / BANDHANI / HISTORY
Bandhani is believed to have begun as a traditional form of tie & dye about 5000 years ago and considered to be one of the oldest forms practiced even today. Initially dyes were discovered in the form of extracts of various plants, flowers, leaves, bark etc. that could be applied to cloth. But it was not considered as dyeing but simply a way of changing color. The art of preparing a dye bath that would readily give its color to the fabrics dipped in it, came much later. It was observed that natural substances like turmeric and indigo from plants, readily stuck to cotton fabrics with some sort of permanency. These were initially being used and are considered to be the earliest forms of color used in dyeing.
Throughout Asia, India and the Far East, traders packed tie and dye cloths as part of their merchandise. Bandhani was introduced in Jamnagar when the city was founded 400 years ago. Bandhani fabrics reign supreme in Rajasthan and Gujarat which are home to an astounding variety of traditional crafts. Century-old skills continue to produce some of the most artistic and exciting wares in these two states and are popular all over the world. Rajasthan is a land of vibrant colors. These colors are a striking part of the life there and are found in the bustling bazaars, in fairs and festivals, in the costumes worn and in the traditional paintings and murals.
Earliest evidence of Bandhani dates back to Indus Valley Civilization suggest that dyeing was done as early as 4000 B.C. The earliest example of the most pervasive type of Bandhani dots can be seen in the 6th century paintings depicting the life of Buddha found on the wall of Cave I at Ajanta. This art finds its mentions in the Alexander the great time texts about the beautiful printed cottons of India. As per evidences in Historical Texts, the first Bandhani saree was worn at the time of Bana Bhatt`s Harshacharita in a royal marriage. It was believed that wearing a Bandhani saree can bring good future to a bride. Ajanta walls stand for the evidences of these Bandhani sarees.
Bandhani work in India was started by the Khatri Community of Gujarat.

Sulphur recovery from smelter off gases
The clock is ticking for the many plants around the world that are still allowed to emit large quantities of SO2 because of their remote locations and the high cost of mitigation. As governments become more environmentally responsible, the industry is seeking an economical solution to control these SO2 emissions. Lisa Connock reports on the new generation of technologies being proposed to tackle the problem.
When smelting sulphide ores, the sulphides are converted into oxides according to the following summary reaction:
MeS + 3/2 O2 ® MeO + SO2 [1]
Approximately one kilogram of sulphur dioxide is generated per kilogram of metal when iron, copper, nickel or zinc sulphides are roasted or smelted. Depending on whether air or enriched air is used, the concentration of SO2 in the smelter off gas is in the range of 8-30 vol-%. Clearly, if the sulphur dioxide is not removed from the smelter off gas, the environmental impact would be sizable with impacts in the form of acid rain over a wide area with its associated environmental and health concerns.
The conversion of SO2 off-gases to sulphuric acid for sale in the marketplace is the usual route to address the issue as the overall process generates excess heat energy and is a well-proven and reliable technology.
However, sulphuric acid production is not viable when the smelters are located in remote areas because costly acid storage and distribution are needed. In these cases, a viable alternative may be the reduction of SO2 to solid elemental sulphur. Elemental sulphur is easier to transport and distribute, it can be stored in exhausted mine sites or in dedicated storage facilities at relatively low cost and, when the market for sulphur is buoyant, it can be sold on the international market..
Prospects for demand
The International Fertilizer Industry Association (IFA) has released its latest review and outlook for the phosphate fertilizers industry. Sulphur reports on current and future prospects among the world's biggest consumers of sulphuric acid.
The next issue of Sulphur (the September-October 2006 issue) will feature British Sulphur Consultants' regular appraisal of sulphur and sulphuric acid trade statistics. Whilst project development, particularly in the base metals industries, is changing the shape and emphasis of global distribution of sulphur, the phosphate fertilizers industry continues to form the bedrock of demand for the element.
IFA's Annual Conference in Cape Town, South Africa, in June provided sulphur producers and suppliers with an appraisal of their biggest customer's performance in the past year. IFA's appraisal of the phosphate fertilizer producers' plans for expansion up to 2010 also gave the sulphur industry an insight into how much scheduled additional production of sulphur could be soaked up by new fertilizer plant – and whether the phosphates producers were heading for future surplus.
Sulphur recovery in the LNG industry
Disulphide oils are by-products of mercaptans removal from propane, butane and pentane in LNG production complexes. Although the sulphur contained in mercaptans and disulphide oils is a small fraction of the total sulphur to be removed from natural gas, in many countries, it is necessary to recover a large part of the sulphur contained in these impurities to satisfy regulations. Lisa Connock reports.
The goal of propane, butane and pentane treatment in a gas field is the extraction of hydrogen sulphide (H2S), carbon dioxide (CO2) and mercaptans (RSH) from the hydrocarbons streams, in order to meet the sulphur specifications of the final product to be sold.
The technology used for RSH removal may vary; one process route is to absorb RSH with a suitable solid bed absorbent, regenerate the absorbent and send the concentrated RSH released to the sulphur recovery unit.
Another process route utilises caustic soda wash in continuous mode for the removal of sulphur compounds. In order to improve the economics of the process, caustic soda is regenerated by direct oxidation of mercaptans to disulphide oil (DSO or RSSR) with air in the presence of catalyst.
The major chemical reactions involved in this process can be summarised as follows:
Extraction of H2S with caustic soda:
H2S + 2 NaOH -> Na2S + H2O
Oxidation of sodium sulphide (Na2S) with oxygen:
2 Na2S + 2 O2 + H2O -> Na2S2O3 + 2 NaOH
Extraction of mercaptans (RSH) with caustic soda:
RSH + NaOH -> NaRS + H2O
Oxidation of sodium mercaptide (NaRS) with oxygen:
NaRS + 1/2 O2 + H2O + NaOH -> RSSR + 2 NaOH
Gulf energy exports drive up sulphur production
A shortage of world refining capacity and vast reserves of gas isolated from major markets have inspired unprecedented investment in new plant in the Middle East to deliver oil and gas products to international customers. After Qatar Gas last year, it was the turn of Saudi and Kuwaiti oil processors to announce major developments affecting sulphur production.
Little more than a year ago the sulphur market was abuzz with news of vast quantities of product that would emerge in the following decade from Qatar's plans to become the leading exporter of liquefied natural gas (LNG). The source of this sulphur – all of it premium, formed product – was to be the huge North Field gas reserves, offshore Qatar. Qatar Gas had no plans to reinject acid gas recovered at its LNG plants; in fact the company had detailed and sophisticated plans for a coordinated sulphur recovery, handling and exporting operation.
With the prospect of North Field's Iran counterpart, South Pars, adding millions more tonnes to the region's supply, albeit more slowly, by 2014 there would be a huge over-supply was the call from some quarters of the sulphur industry.

Last night my family and I happened to tune in to watch a bit of American Ninja Warrior. We aren't die-hard fans of the show, but it seems to be on almost every night at this point, and it is oddly compelling. It is easy to get sucked in to watching contestant after contestant try to navigate seemingly physically impossible obstacle courses that require practically non-human upper body strength and agility. As each competitor excitedly steps up to the course, all of us watching cheer him or her on, hoping THIS will be the one who makes it all the way, and doesn't fall into the pool of water at the bottom.
I ended up keeping the show on for about an hour as I did some other things around the house, and I think in that hour only 3 people made it all the way through the 4-stage journey. The show's creators of course profile any of the competitors who have overcome diversity to be there, or have trained in some amazing way, just to ensure that we are emotionally invested in what we are watching. I of course root the most for the least likely winners – the oldest competitor, the youngest competitor, the one who has tried for three years prior and never made it all the way, etc etc… I'm impressed and slightly awed by the level of fitness these athletes have achieved to be there, especially since I was watching it after having just pushed myself through a measly one-hour workout session.
Stage 1: Up and At 'Em. After not enough sleep, an alarm, pet, or child gives the Ready Set Go command and the RW is off and running. She has a limited amount of time to accomplish tasks such as pet or child care, breakfast and lunch preparation, answering questions, texts, and emails, and getting herself dressed and presentable. Any number of unexpected obstacles are thrown in, such as dirty dishes, forgotten homework, torn clothing, missing buttons, notes to be written, laundry, and even vomit. If the Ninja RW manages to get through this course without being late to work, and being fully clothed in matching, unwrinkled attire, then she may move on to the next stage.
Stage 2: Mount Workopolus. This is the stage of the course with the greatest variety. Our Ninja R.W.'s step into their public personae to accomplish any number of feats such as caregiving, leading, teaching, customer service, administration, creative development, and even saving lives. They must accomplish this while keeping one hand on the domestic wheel, managing family emergencies, appointments, calls, planning and coordination. Like the Warriors TV show, the R.W. navigates the same obstacle course, and same stages, as their male counterparts. However even when successful, unlike on TV, she will receive on average only 78% of the prize monies offered to the men. She will push her way through anyway, chanting some motivational mantra in her head about needing to pay for vacation, childcare, or a new pair of shoes. The Ninja R.W. will achieve success in this stage of the course if she meets all deadlines, remains pleasant and professional, and still looks good at the other end. Starting to feel fatigued and battle-weary, she heads on to Stage 3.
Stage 3: The Post-Work-Press. Speed is of the essence with this portion of the challenge. The Ninja R.W. pulls out any remaining multi-tasking resources she has left to run errands, drive the R.W. taxi, care for family and pets, prepare food, repair & clean up any damage done from the first two stages, and wedge in extra chores or quality time with loved ones. At this point, our Ninja is not only battling fatigue, but a sore back, headache, and a lowered level of patience. But she perseveres because she can see the last Stage in front of her and hopeful successful completion.
Stage 4: The Wind Down. With any luck, this Stage allows for a brief rest period for the Ninja R.W., possibly in the form of reading a magazine or book, catching a TV program, or talking with other Ninja R.W. contestants. But the respite is brief, as the preparing for bed process kicks in. While the rest of the family snuggles under the covers, the Ninja R.W. is making the last rounds. Like the TV Warrior competitors trying to climb that last wall or ladder, the R.W. is getting the pet out for a last bio break, putting away dishes, carrying loads of laundry, prepping items for the following day, turning out lights and locking up.
As the Warriors triumphantly reach their end goal and push the big red button and the announcers proclaim their success, the Ninja R.W. gives kisses, brushes her teeth, removes her make-up and turns out the light.
The Warriors on TV receive high praise and a loud cheering and applauding crowd. The lucky R.W. hears a quiet thank you or I love you.
And that is exactly why she is ready to start the challenge all over again in a few short hours.

Q: Using VBA to Update a form recordset in Access 2007 I'm doing some development in access and I'm running into an issue where I need to make sure that a form is updated in a buttons OnClick handler.
I was thinking that it might work something like this:
if me.dirty then
    me.update     'This is a nonexistent form method'
end if
<rest of handler>

If such a thing exists, will I have to call the OnUpdate Event handler manually?

A: How about:
if me.dirty then
    me.dirty=false
end if

Code as per Allen Browne, MVP:
http://allenbrowne.com/bug-01.html

A: I would avoid the .RunCommand version because there are cases where Me.Dirty = False will work and access to the menu commands is prevented.
On the other hand, Me.Dirty has always struck me as a property that ought to be read-only, but it's not.

A: I always use this code in my Save_Click handlers
If Me.Dirty Then
  DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord
End If

Biografia
Figlio di Sisa Tabet e Sabatino Lopez, appartenente a famiglia ebraica, all'anagrafe è Lopez Nunes.  Esordisce nel 1948 con il romanzo autobiografico Il Campo, premio Bagutta opera prima. Il testo narra le vicende della rocambolesca fuga in Svizzera per sfuggire alle persecuzioni razziali e della successiva vita nei campi profughi, fino alla liberazione dell'Italia nel 1945.
Nel 1953 esce La prove del nove, secondo ed ultimo romanzo. Nel 1957 termina il suo rapporto con la casa editrice Arnoldo Mondadori dove occupava il ruolo di capo ufficio stampa e dove ebbe l'opportunità di incontrare i principali autori del dopoguerra, da Elio Vittorini a Georges Simenon, da Ernest Hemingway a William Faulkner, da Marino Moretti a Italo Calvino. Di quegli incontri pubblica nel 1972 un testo di memorie I verdi, i viola, gli arancioni.

Fondamentale è la scoperta e l'esplorazione di Milano. Stimolato dal fotografo Piero Castellenghi, percorre vicoli e cortili spinto dalla curiosità di un giornalista, con il puntiglio di uno storico. Nel 1965 esce Milano in mano, giunto nel 2015 alla diciottesima edizione, aggiornata dal figlio Fabio.

La ricerca delle radici della propria città lo porta ad esplorare lo scenario della storia milanese sotto il dominio delle dinastie dei Visconti e degli Sforza. Riscopre e valorizza la vicenda delle nozze fra Ludovico il Moro e Beatrice d'Este, raccontate in forma epica da Tristano Calco, e descritte in dettaglio da Jacopo Trotti, ambasciatore del duca d'Este curando il volume Festa di nozze per Ludovico il Moro (De Carlo, 1976). Da allora, inizia a produrre testi storici e narrativi legati alle vicende rinascimentali, attorno a Ludovico e al suo più famoso collaboratore, Leonardo da Vinci. Escono: da Mursia La roba e la libertà (1982); da Camunia Moro! Moro! (1992); da Newton & Compton I Signori di Milano (2003); Storia e storie di Milano (2005); nel 2012 Breve storia di Milano.

Per Partipilo e Celip scrive i testi per i volumi fotografici della città realizzati da vari fotografi, da Mario De Biasi a Fulvio Roiter, sui cortili, le chiese, lo stile liberty, i Navigli.

Collaborò a la Repubblica e il Giorno, scrivendo corsivi concernenti la metropoli lombarda. Ha ricevuto l'Ambrogino d'oro del Comune di Milano e la Medaglia di riconoscenza della Provincia Di Milano.

È stato presidente dal 1971 al 2002 dell'Università Popolare di Milano (fondata nel 1901).

Nel 2013 il Ministero per i Beni Ambientali Culturali e Turismo ha riconosciuto l'interesse nazionale del suo archivio. L'epistolario è stato conferito e catalogato presso la Fondazione Arnoldo e Alberto Mondadori con sede a Milano.

If you're looking for a little bundle of fun that's only about a foot high, weighs in at between 10 and 16 pounds and is a great watchdog, look no further than the Schipperke.
She's quite adaptable when it comes to new situations but has the tendency to bark. A lot.
Here's more info about this classic breed.
As part of the AKC non-sporting group, this dog is a relative of the black sheepdog found in Belgium. The breed's name … often times shortened to "Schip" or LBD for little black devil … originated in the Flemish language and stands for little captain.
They started their working lives as watchdogs on boats that navigated canals and made their first appearance in America in the late 1800s.
As stated above, this dog is a big dog in a small body. She's active and craves lots of games and outings with the family. Her ears stand straight up which is a benefit when it comes to ear cleaning. The more air circulation a dog's ears get, the less oil and dirt builds up.
She has an unusual appearance by virtue of the fact that her coat makes her look like her body slopes backwards. It doesn't – it's just the way her coat appears.
If you're looking for a dog who loves anyone and everyone on sight, the Schip may not be for you. She's fine around family and friends … especially when introduced at an early age … but may be aloof around strangers.
The Schip is great with kids and even toddlers but as with all dogs, they should be monitored when together.
Any purebred dog will have health issues and the Schip is no exception. Make sure to get all applicable health certificates from the breeder on both the parents and the pups.
They are susceptible to diseases like Legg-Calve-Perthes disease which affects the hip socket and ball joint, epilepsy and patellar luxation.
Like most breeds, early training and sociability are the keys to a well-adjusted pooch. Start training him the moment he steps through your door as a puppy and continue throughout his life.
Enroll him in puppy kindergarten which will help train both of you and give him some early socialization with other dogs and dog owners.
The Schip is a cinch to groom even though he has a double coat. Brush him once a week and that should keep the hair accumulation from getting away from you. He will shed heavily once or twice a year for about a month but a bath will help get rid of dead hair.
Regular baths aren't needed as this little guy is typically clean and tidy unless he rolls in some smelly doggy perfume. Get him used to regular tooth brushing and nail trimming and you're good to go.
Thinking About Adding A Schipperke To Your Family?
Please consider adopting before purchasing and please avoid purchasing an animal from a pet store. You can find purebred Schipperkes & mixes in need of good homes. Visit Petfinder Or Overstock Pet Adoption to search for a Schipperke in of adoption near you.

Q: Numerical Methods for Algebraic Equations - Non root finding I'm researching a topic for solving general algebraic equations using numerical method. My numerical recipe knowledge is rather rusty with the Bisection to Newton's methods but I don't think those could be applied for equations such as:
$$
\frac{x^2}{2+x}+\cos(x+1)=x^2\times \sin\left(\frac{\sqrt x}{x^2}\right)
$$
with an approximated numerical solutions:
$$
x_1\approx0.531709
$$
and
$$
x_2\approx3.401750
$$
I know matlab has the vpasolve function for numerical approximation of the unknown variable but I can't find any details regarding the used method or even if such a numerical method exist that can be used to approximate the unknown variable for any given equation with one unknown var. At first I tried applying Newton Raphson's method but stuck right at the beginning since:

*

*I'm not searching for a solution in the form of $f(x)=0$.

*I don't know the derivative for the equation and I don't want to apply symbolic algorithms.

Thank you for the tips!
Cheers!

A: Contrary to common opinion, there is no established numerical method to find the roots of closed-form functions.
There are indeed several excellent methods for root refinement, among which the secant/regula falsi (without derivatives) and Newton (with derivatives), that converge super-linearly.
Anyway we are pretty deprived as regards root isolation (finding intervals where a single root is guaranteed) and even more root exhaustion (finding all the roots).
For example, it would be hard to determine the number of roots of the equation below, though this number is finite:
$$
\frac{x^2}{2+x}+\cos(x+1)=x^2\sin\left(\frac{\sqrt x}{x^2}\right)+\cos(1)-0.83x.
$$
About all you can do is sampling the function densely enough, but there is no guarantee of success. You can't really spare an analytical insight into the function.

Update:
I found this reference which describes an interesting approach to automatic root isolation:
Root isolation using function values, Bush Jones, W. G. Waller & Arnold Feldman, BIT Numerical Mathematics, September 1978, Volume 18, Issue 3, pp 311-319.
It is base on a statistical estimation of the probability to have a zero in an interval.

A: As already said in answers and comments, consider that you look for the zero's of the function $$f(x)=\frac{x^2}{2+x}+\cos(x+1)-x^2\times \sin\left(\frac{\sqrt x}{x^2}\right)$$ and apply Newton method which, starting from a "reasonable" guess $x_0$, will update it according to $$x_{n+1}=x_n-\frac{f(x_n)}{f'(x_n)}$$ For the function, let me be very lazy and choose $x_0=5$; the successive iterates will then be $$x_1=2.63695$$ $$x_2=3.65956$$ $$x_3=3.40642$$ $$x_4=3.40175$$ which is the solution for six significant figures.
For sure, you need the derivative of the function. But, may be, you do not want to establish its analytical expression. Then, just compute it using finite differences such as $$f'(x_n)=\frac{f(x_n+\epsilon)-f(x_n)} \epsilon$$ or, better $$f'(x_n)=\frac{f(x_n+\epsilon)-f(x_n-\epsilon)} {2\epsilon}$$ using, for example, $\epsilon=\frac{x_n}{1000}$. This will work fine.

A: Set $f(x) = \frac{x^2}{2+x}+\cos(x+1)-x^2\sin\left(\frac{\sqrt x}{x^2}\right)$, now you are looking for $f(x) = 0$ and you can apply something like the bisection method if you do not know the derivative of the function.

ITV orders a second series of The Good Karma Hospital
Amrita Acharia, Amanda Redman return for more Hospital drama
ITV has recommissioned a second series of Tiger Aspect Drama, The Good Karma Hospital, following consolidated ratings of around 6.7 million.
Set in Southern India, the six-part drama is created and written by Dan Sefton (The Five, Mr Selfridge), and follows British-Asian junior doctor, Ruby (Amrita Acharia) who works with a dedicated team of over-worked medics at the run-down Good Karma Hospital.
Also reprising their roles will be Amanda Redman, Neil Morrissey, James Floyd, Darshan Jariwalla, Sagar Radia and Nimmi Harasagama.
The news has been announced after the series 1 finale, which aired tonight (12 March)
Executive Producer of Tiger Aspect Drama, Will Gould said: "We are beyond delighted that The Good Karma Hospital has struck such a chord with the audience who have taken these vibrant characters and life affirming stories to their hearts. It's been an incredibly international production, but it all started with creator Dan Sefton's scripts, and ITV's belief in them, so I'd like to thank them both for that. I can't wait to see series two come to life."
Senior Drama Commissioner, Victoria Fea, commented: "We're very excited about developing a second series of The Good Karma Hospital. It's brought the warmth, colour and vibrancy of India to our wintry Sunday nights. This is a credit to the wonderful cast, Dan Sefton's well-crafted scripts and Tiger Aspect Drama."
The Good Karma Hospital Series 2 will begin filming in August 2017 for transmission in 2018.

Petition to WI Governor to Pardon Brendan Dassey and Steven Avery
Brendan Dassey was 16 when he gave an unreliable, uncorroborated and inconsistent set of statements about a crime, details of which were provided to him by those interviewing him. His youth and cognitive and social limitations made him extremely sensitive to suggestibility, making his confession a text book example of a false coerced confession. Steven Avery, already proven to have been wrongfully convicted and imprisoned for a rape case, had a civil suit of $36 million for his wrongful con
A call to end Swedish support to antisemitic education in UNRWA schools
UNRWA is a UN-agency created to support so called palestinian refugees. It is a strange agency due to the fact the it recognizes the right for palestinians to inherit refugee status. No other refugees in the world can inherit their refugee status. All other refugees in the world are supported by another UN-agency, UNHCR. UNRWA receives millions of Swedish taxpayers money annually. But to what purposes are the money really used? UNRWA is, i. a., running schools. It is well known that such school
Decriminalize possession of Psilocybin Mushrooms
Europe's strongest hallucinogenic mushroom, 'Liberty cap', are thriving in Denmark. The mushroom contains the psychoactive compound called psilocybin - a so-called psychedelic substance - which recent research indicates has a huge potential for treating depression, as well as helping people out of their nicotine and alcohol dependence. It stands proud out there, swaying in the Danish mole, in the woods and on open plains. The fungus is the strongest of its kind in Europe. And in these autumn da

Reomve the ban agains apple snails!
Pomacea-snails are tropical snails, and the family consists of six species. One species has invaded rice fields in Spain, and since a time back the whole Pomacea-snail is punishable by spreading ban. We think that is wrong, especially given because that the Pomacea-species (Pomeca diffusa) we keep in aquariums can't eat living plants because of its radula (scraping tongue/tooth) is too week. A species who eat plants is something we absolutely don't want to have in our aquariums, even if it was l
