Well, sort of, anyway. Just a quick update. We are in the US. We are in Salem, Oregon, as a matter of fact. Soon, though, we will be in Canyonville, Oregon. See, after we got here and I started my Americorps position, my dad had a pretty bad heart attack. So we are moving closer to him and are going to buy his old house in Douglas County.

I plan on starting up with You Tube tutes and blogs again and will kick this blog into high gear, too, with a makeover and all! My new house has the biggest master bedroom with an alcove between the bedroom and bathroom just begging to be turned into a makeup/dressing area. I never could resist begging, so….

My husband, who is at home today, tells me I have received a package from MAC, so I will take some pictures as I open it tonight and do a little haul post tomorrow or tonight. I know I ordered the Naughty Noir Eye and the House of Mirth Deep Lip Bags, so it should be good.

Otherwise, stay tuned for fun changes in the next month or two!!

I finally got fed up with all the annoying flash ads slowing down every site I browse and decided to do something about it. I am on a Mac and strongly prefer Safari to Firefox which has its own solution (AdBlock) which means there is no simple download solution. Plus if you use multiple browsers then you will have to find multiple solution UNLESS you black list all the bad guys. Fortunately, the folks at MVPS have done all the hard work for us by creating a list of the bad guys.

There are a few problems with their ready made file for use with a non-Windows machine: First, it has the MS carriage return. Second, it uses 127.0.0.1 (localhost) instead of nothing (0.0.0.0) meaning each request gets routed to you so if you do have a web server running it might be odd. So I wrote a short script which downloads and reformats the file.

#!/bin/sh
origloc="${HOME}/tmp/hosts.original"
blacklist="http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.txt"
#blacklist="http://someonewhocares.org/hosts/zero/hosts"
bltmp="${HOME}/tmp/hosts.txt"
if [ ! -f ~/tmp/hosts.original ]; then
cp /etc/hosts ${origloc}
fi
cd ~/tmp && /usr/bin/curl -o ${bltmp} ${blacklist} && /bin/cat ${origloc} > ~/tmp/hosts && /usr/bin/sed -e 's/127\.0\.0\.1 localhost//' -e 's/^127\.0\.0\.1/0.0.0.0/g' ${bltmp} | /usr/bin/tr -d '\r' | /usr/bin/grep -v "^#" | /usr/bin/grep '0\.0\.0\.0' >> ~/tmp/hosts && sudo /bin/mv ~/tmp/hosts /etc/
sudo /usr/bin/dscacheutil -flushcache

This script will copy the original /etc/hosts to ~/tmp/hosts.original so if you experience a problem then it MAY still be there. I would suggest making a copy of /etc/hosts in a more constant location and pointing this script to there so it can be run just as an update.
The last line is for Mac OS X only, the other line is a monstrosity which only proceeds to the next step if successful in the previous. This script should ask you for your password since it is overwriting an important system file (/etc/hosts). For some reason the WordPress formating for code doesn’t properly treat whitespace so you may have to add it back into the if statement. Disclaimer: I provide no warranty whatsoever for the above script.
UPDATE 2009-11-30: Another site offering a well maintained hosts file is someonewhocares.org, they have multiple different files available using localhost(127.0.0.1) and nothing (0.0.0.0). The script has been updated to allow for easy changing of input file.

Bora Bora is perhaps the most beautiful island in the world. With its two soaring mountain peaks, the Mount Otemanu and the Mount Pahia piercing out of the sky, Bora Bora is truly an incredible destination, and is much favored for its green tropical slopes, hibiscus-blossom valleys, stunning white sandy beaches, and enchanting lagoons circled by palm-fringed motus, which in turn gives it a look of a delicate necklace.

In short, Bora Bora is a love at first sight. No wonder, why honeymooners, lovers, and couples flock here throughout the year to renew their marriage vows as well as to rekindle their romantic feelings.

Located about 250 km north-west of Tahiti in the Leeward group of the Society Islands in French Polynesia, Bora Bora is much famed for its mythical as well as mysterious landmarks. When comes to activities, the destination is truly a haven to enjoy a continuum of water sport activities such as scuba diving, swimming, snorkeling, wind surfing, surfing, jet boating, and jet skiing. For water adventurers, some excellent options are available in the form of parasailing and deep sea sport fishing, all of which are at the same time thrilling and fun to do.

However, activities that can be enjoyed in Bora Bora are not just confined to water sport activities. Adventurers can also take advantage of such activities available here as four-wheel drive safaris, which is a great way to explore the breathtaking views as well as the rich flora of the island. Another great way to discover the tranquility as well as beauty of the place consisting of towering mountains and beautiful lagoons is by taking a helicopter tour.

Other popular activities for adventurers are climbing, hiking, or circle island tour, which takes you through the 20-mile road that circles this amazing island. Likewise, fun lovers can take advantage of activities such as eco and nature tours to explore the archeological sites in the region, horseback riding, lagoon excursions, and camping in some official spots.

Sightseeing options are aplenty in Bora Bora. Among the points of interest are ancient Maraes or open air temples and the Coastal Guns from the Second World War including Matira guns and Fitiiu Point guns. A visit to the island would not be complete without taking a tour to its exotic lagoonarium, which is not only home to a variety of rare marine species but also a great spot to enjoy an array of activities including shark and ray feeding, picnics on a motu, and snorkeling at the Coral Gardens. Also, a not to miss attraction in Bora Bora is the traditional Tahitian dancing.

With these gamuts of attractions and a variety of activities to enjoy, Bora Bora draws holidaymakers, honeymooners, and newly weds from every nook and corner of the world. Hence, the destination has a plenty of accommodation options to cater to every taste and budget. For luxury lovers and well-heeled, choices are aplenty.

Majority of the chic hotels and resorts in the area come with guest rooms in the form of bungalows and that too appointed with top-end amenities such as plasma TVs with satellite, plush daybeds, and private decks with bamboo screen, apart from providing incredible views of the surroundings. Since hotels are situated on its own private island, it allows the guests to enjoy the ultimate in privacy. If you are looking for a unique experience, then one of the most options would be stay at over-water bungalows, which are probably the most romantic as well as intimate type of accommodation in the South Pacific.

For spa buffs as well as weary travelers, many of the hotels in the region provide excellent spa facilities covering treatments such as relaxation massage, body scrub with Bora Bora sands, stone massage, warm and cold shell massage, and beauty treatments including facials and waxing. Usually, one or more restaurants are attached within a hotel or resort, all of them serving a variety of cuisines, from Asian and Chinese to American and Mediterranean cuisine. Even some hotels come with restaurants as well as bars with an extensive wine list.

Many of the hotels and resorts now render the services in the form of packages, which are mostly inclusive of options to enjoy activities like snorkeling and scuba diving, sightseeing, accommodation, dining, and transportation. Since Bora Bora is a much favored destination for weddings and romantic getaways, packages are also available in the form of wedding packages and honeymoon packages, crafted with all that are required to make your wedding or honeymoon truly special and unforgettable. However, these packages could fetch you considerable savings if you book them in advance prior to the departure date.

Nowadays, many of the hotels and resorts have their sites on web, which in turn enable people to make bookings within the comforts of their room or workplace.

It’s that ‘joyous time of year’ again. And it’s funny how much this season has changed over time and how much of it has remained the same.

When I was a little kid, I can remember adults trying to put on their best face making the season bright and bountiful. But behind the holly-wreathed doors, I would hear the bitching and complaining about how women were the ones who would have to make the season happen if the season were to happen at all.

The gripes would include having to do all the planning, the baking, the holiday card addressing (and keeping track of the new addresses, the moves, the cards returned from old addresses or deaths) and then do all the meal planning, meal shopping, gift planning and shopping and wrapping and packing for mailing, standing in line at the post-office, planning for the unexpected drop-by guests, handling relative accommodating for overnight stays, stressing over the lack of space for everyone and dealing with airport pickups and returns, and of course the cleaning before visitors, cleaning up after baking and cleaning up before stay overs and before the meal. And this cleaning process also included cleaning the silver, bringing out special occasion linens and doing that clean up, preparation and then the decoration, tree, walls, lights and making sure there were festive candles, scents, firewood and the list goes on. This was all followed by also preparing for care packages of leftovers and then writing of all the thank you notes and preparing for New Year.

There would be this ‘knowing’ look in the aisles of stores while grocery shopping, big sighs in the lines where people waited with armfuls of goodies, with a glimmer of disgust and frustration. But at the end of it all – everyone was ‘happy.’ Of course the complaint would be that it took nearly two months to prepare for a moment where the meal was gulped down in less than twenty minutes and the present opening took less than ten. It’s kind of like a rollercoaster ride where you wait in line for three hours and the ride is over in two minutes.

The holidays happen the same time every year. But each year people get stressed, and sick with the flu from the stress, late hours, overtaxing of the body, mind and spirit.

It’s pretty amazing though that at this time of year, the average human who celebrates this one season can do all of this and survive it.

During regular life, away from the holiday season – life can be and is, just as hectic, but it’s not as glaring. Whether it’s dealing with birthdays, weddings, graduations, anniversaries, funerals, births, moving, job changes, commutes, house buying or selling, everyday task-mastering of business, personal, family, friends, neighbors, occasions, obligations and events…. Life can be crazy.

And whether you are dealing with crisis of illness and disease, accident or financial, career or family matter, life has a series of bumpy roads, obstacle courses and uphill battles to resolve and overcome.

But if it weren’t for all this, would there be the joy, peace and elation of life’s moments of gliding? Perhaps if it weren’t for all this, there would be no true appreciation and enjoyment of the good times, great moments of victory, achievement, accomplishment and endurance…

Think about that. If everything in life were easy, there wouldn’t be motivation to do much of anything. People would get laxed and lazy, disconnected by nature due to the fact that everything would be so joyous and effortless that they would end up having no emotional connection to the outcome of anything because nothing was put into it.

Nothing was more clear to me, than after watching Donny Osmond win Dancing With The Stars. The road up until his win was difficult because it wasn’t just the road he was on, it was the past roads behind him, the current road working hard to achieve the win and the road ahead of him as the outcome based on his performance all rolled into one.

When you live in a spotlight of expectation, expectation puts added pressure on you. When you are a perfectionist living with this spotlight, your self-imposed pressure can get the best of you. When you have had difficulty in the past dealing with social anxiety disorder in the arena of performance, and are performing with a broken toe, the flu and flying back and forth between Los Angeles, Las Vegas and Utah non-stop all week and performing a regular non-stop gig, even more so.

When you are trying not to let down a bunch of long-time fans who have been by your side for the past 46 years of performing, being the oldest contestant still in the running trying to keep up energy-wise with your peers who are the age of your own kids, that alone is huge. But when you are doing all this knowing you want the time you’ve spent away from your wife and kids will not have been for nothing, while also dealing with your own personal friendly sibling rivalry to come out ahead (also knowing you were winning for her as well – because at the time when she was performing, she was dealing with the death of her father, her own divorce and other family issues, while trying to lose weight to get healthy) well… the tears of joy behind the victory say more than you’re just happy you won.

We all go through the rocky road of life’s events. We all endure moments of difficulty, challenge and a path full of obstacles to navigate around, many emotionally, mentally and physically taxing times to juggle simultaneously while having a smile on our faces.

But again, if it were not for all this, the moments of victory will not have been as sweet. So whether it’s a holiday, a season, a life event, a competition or simply a moment to see what you’re made of …. We must remember that in order to enjoy the GLIDE in life, we must power through the rocky road.

The Olympics represent unique opportunities for sports enthusiasts and cultural ambassadors to come together to dissolve humanity’s differences and unify under the banner of goodwill and sportsmanship. The Olympics are held in even numbered years, with the Summer Olympics celebrated in years divisible by four and the Winter Olympics staged two years later.

Although the Olympics are always an exciting time, anticipation for the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing is unparalleled. China has always been an extremely powerful nation, but it is poised to become a true economic powerhouse, one that could well lead the world as the century progresses. The Chinese view the 2008 Games as the opportunity to showcase their development, while the rest of the world is intensely curious about a country, a government, and a people that seem shrouded in mystery.

Because it is largely a closed society, few Westerners have had the opportunity to visit China – until now. Indeed, this year’s Games make 2008 Olympic tour packages extremely popular, as they present a unique opportunity to experience Chinese culture and enjoy the camaraderie that accompanies this gathering of athletes and fans from around the world. For many people who love to travel, golf packages, hunting and fishing vacations, and cruises pale in comparison to the chance to become part of history as China unveils its advancements on a world stage.

When you’ve decided to embark on this adventure of a lifetime, though, how do you decide which travel operator to use? The best 2008 Olympic tour packages can be found online. Look for a travel website that offers over a dozen different China travel packages. For example, you should be able to choose from among seven-day, nine-day, ten-day, and eleven-day tours. Perhaps you’d like to limit your China visit to Beijing, and concentrate on seeing the Olympics and visiting landmarks like Tiananmen Square and the Great Wall. Maybe you’d also like to make your way to Shanghai and Suzhou, a town of canals that has been dubbed the “Venice of the East.” Extend your trip for a few days, and you could visit Nanjing to experience its rich cultural heritage, as well as Hangzhou’s Lin Ying Temple.

Choosing the right travel company is more than selecting your preferred itinerary, though. You should also ensure that the tour provides guides that speak English, and includes accommodations in four-star hotels. All transportation within China should be provided, including transportation to and from Olympic venues. Price is also a consideration, though it probably shouldn’t be the deciding factor. You can, however, expect to book a superb eleven-day 2008 Olympic tour package for under $5,000 per person.

The slogan of this summer’s Olympic games is “One World, One Dream.” If you’ve always dreamt of visiting one of the most exotic, mysterious places in the world, 2008 Olympic tour packages will give you an experience of a lifetime. Let the games begin!

We understand how busy the holiday season is.  With Christmas shopping, friends and family visiting, making plans for the holidays and getting the kids ready for winter break – it’s no wonder we find so little time for ourselves!  This is why the Douglas Fir Resort has decided to give you a little more time to take advantage of our Early Bird Pricing on our Winter Packages.

Book by December 15th and receive Early Bird pricing on all of our Winter Packages including:

Banff’s Winter Wonderland
2 Day Family Ski Getaway
3 Day Ultimate Ski Getaway
Ski and Stay (choose your own length)

See you on the slopes!

If you’ve always dreamed of a luxurious honeymoon, one that will be unforgettable, then a honeymoon cruise might be just the right ticket. Most cruises offer romance, adventure, a variety of sights to see, and plenty of great food and entertainment. You can wine and dine on the cruise ship for your entire honeymoon trip, or you can take excursions by land at several of the ship’s destinations. Either way, a cruise is a wonderful honeymoon choice to relax and be pampered after a busy wedding.

Experience Delightful Treats on a Honeymoon Cruise

If you enjoy the sea and traveling to several destinations during one trip, a honeymoon cruise provides both. You’ll get to see beautiful scenery and many interesting places during the stops without having to pack and unpack your belongings several times. You will leave the ship to sightsee and return by night, so no worry about getting different hotel rooms. A honeymoon cruise also offers romance. Most cruises have a wide variety of fine restaurants on board, serving everything from exotic cuisines by candle light to pizzas and hamburgers. You’ll also be able to relax and enjoy one another’s company in a steamy Jacuzzi.

Many cruises also feature swimming pools, casinos, bars and lounges, dance, live entertainment and concerts, games, massage and spa, and luxurious honeymoon suites.

Adventures beyond Compare

If you’ve always wanted to tour an exotic island with lush forests and unusual flowers, see the clear blue waters of the Bahamas in the Caribbean, sightsee in a European city, or sunbathe on the gorgeous beaches of Hawaii, a honeymoon cruise can take you there. You can take several exciting excursions on land and enjoy scenes of untouched nature, tour and shop with the locals in quaint villages, and see historic buildings in little known towns. Your honeymoon will be filled with adventure, as if the luxury cruise liner wasn’t enough!

Plan Your Honeymoon Cruise

Many couples are so busy planning the wedding that they forget about planning for the honeymoon. Ironically, the wedding may only last a couple of hours, but the honeymoon will last much longer, from a week up to a month! So some planning should be done in advance if you want your honeymoon cruise to be a dream come true.

First, decide on a destination you both will enjoy. Read about various cruises online to see what each one offers. Carnival Cruise Lines, for instance, offers more than 20 cruise ships with a variety of honeymoon cruise packages, including destinations to the Bahamas in the Caribbean, Dominica, Europe, Mexico, and others. Do you want a tropical cruise or an exquisite European cruise? Are the chilly waters of Alaska more your style?

Next, find a cruise that offers the amenities, food, entertainment, and adventures that both you and your spouse will enjoy. Compare pricing of cruise packages and what they include. Some honeymoon cruise packages will include excursions on land. These may or may not be cheaper than taking excursions on your own when you get there. And finally, choose a cruise that fits your style. Do you like big crowds and parties? There are cruises that are known for being “party ships.” Or, do you prefer a more relaxed, quiet setting? Find a cruise that offers what you’re looking for within your budget.

You can easily find honeymoon cruise packages and compare what they offer online. Check out travel sites for cruises or other travel packages such as Travelocity, Orbitz, Travelzoo, Expedia, and other vacation sites. There are also sites that offer adventure packages and tickets to special events (the Olympics, NASCAR races, Yankees games, concerts, and so forth) such as Ticketmaster and Cheaptickets. So, no matter where you want to go or what you want to do on your honeymoon, you can likely find a cruise or adventure to make your honeymoon dreams come true!

Three years of careful restoration work has brought back the ancient splendour to a little village in Lombardy, dating back from 1711, when it belonged to the illustrious and noble Strigelli family. Today, as then, it is the passion of a family, the D’Angelo family http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amedeo_D’Angelo, to make this jewel into and discreet charm, and of which its most important characteristics are a an exclusive estate, which exudes an ancientwarm welcome and a feeling of well-being. The “ 1711 Contrada Resort” is situated along the banks of the river Adda, within a beautiful natural park, and yet not far from cities such as Milan, Bergamo and Como, which are at the heart of the most active and pulsating economic centre of Lombardy and Italy. It is part of the town of Arlate, which like many other towns in this area, has its roots in Roman times, and became important in the medieval times. The buildings of the “1711 Contrada Resort” are grouped harmoniously around the reception area, where there are 23 rooms http://www.contradaresort.it/ , the restaurant Tavola del Conte http://www.contradaresort.it/it/ristorante_como_tavola_del_conte.html and the Wellness Center Ti Sana SPA http://www.contradaresort.it/it/tisana_spa_massaggi_lecco.html, it provides ample and well equipped space for conferences, seminars and business meetings. At the same time it is possible to spend a holiday, pampered by the unique natural and cultural surroundings. The Adda valley offers exciting and enjoyable activities with magical foot and bicycle paths along the river and within the park, canoeing, easy access to the golf course and much more. On the eve of the its 300th anniversary, the ancient village lives again, in the courtyards and around the old well, in the dwelling places, along the paving stones, you can hear the sounds, the voices which have made its history. Each house, each wall, each stone reminds you of the noble and great style typical of the tradition in Lombardy, to which, the famous writer Alessandro Manzoni, while by the banks of the river Adda, dedicated some of his most illustrious pages of the masterpiece “The Betrothed”. The character of the place and of its surroundings is born, of a natural elegance, not ostentation; the attention to the guests is the result of a tradition of warm and sincere hospitality; the choice of food respects the seasons and the traditions, and also man and his natural health; exactly as in the SPA, which believes in the individual harmony and equilibrium of each person as the most important vital element, abandoning fashion and external appearances.

My practice is fortunate enough to be in a holistic wellness center that has wonderful practioners of all types.  Because of this I am able to offer unique packages to my clients at reduced rates.  Currently I am running a great special on first time clients with an intial consult for 1.5 hrs and a 30 minute massage (by a professional massage therapist) following our appointment!! This package is $130!  Ongoing massages from any of the therapists will be discounted if you are a client of mine.  So take advantage of this opportunity.

There are a variety of ways to relieve stress, depression, and anxiety. Traditionally talk therapy is extremely helpful, but along with other modalities the recovery rate is much higher.  I believe in treating the body as a whole instead of parts which is why I practice at a center that offers all these options.  If you are interested give me a call or email at 650-224-1796 or amoreena@gmail.com.

Happy Thanksgiving!

I have a very little experience on java and this blog is meant to be my future personal reference. so if you are still reading this blog for a in-depth concept on these topics; better you look elsewhere.

Ok, till now it was totally clumsy to me that what the heck is CLASSPATH and what is the relationship between CLASSPATH and packages. Now I guess I have a little understanding on it.

CLASSPATH: Java CLASSPATH is the PATH or location or directory where java run-time system looks for CLASSES or PACKAGES, where classes are located.

Packages: Packages may be compared to folders where different class files are located. To indicate that a class file belongs to that package we need to write the following statement at the beginning of that file:

package pkg;
To import a package we need to write:

import pkg1.pkg2.classname;
Example
Now let’s see an example. Open the command prompt and set the CLASSPATH to

C:\>set CLASSPATH=.;C:\;
by this statement we are telling the JRE to look for clases in the C:\ directory and its subdirectory. Now create two files in following directories:

1.C:\onePack\One.java
2.C:\twoPack\Two.java
****Code for One.java****

package onePack;
import twoPack.Two;
class One{
public static void main(String args[])
{
Two two = new Two(2);
two.show();
}
}
****Code for Two.java****

package twoPack;
public class Two{
private int b;
public Two(int a)
{
b = a + 10;
}
public void show()
{
System.out.println(b);
}
}

These two statements binds each class to the specified Package:

package onePack;
package twoPack;
Also note the use of import. It tells One to use the Two class file from twoPack package. Here CLASSPATH plays the role to where from start searching for classes.

After compiling the source files type the following code:

C:\>java onePack.One


This is needed to do so because now One belong to package onePack and this is its fully-qualified class name.

CHANGING THE CLASSPATH:

By changing the CLASSPATH we can put our packages in any directory and import them as we like.

Let us put twoPack folder in D:\ directory. Now we need to change our CLASSPATH as

C:\>set CLASSPATH=.;C:\;D:\;

Recompile One to let it know the new location of Two.class file. Now type the command:

C:\>java onePack.one

Hope it runs successfully. Hence we imported our needed class twoPack.Two from a different directory and used it.

I recently experienced a minor run-in with dpkg-deb. My system tells me, that

$ uname -a
Linux hoazin 2.6.28-16-generic #55-Ubuntu SMP Tue Oct 20 19:48:24 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux

which seems to indicate that the Architecture field of the DEBIAN/control file should read ‘i686‘. Doing this results in the error:

deb Error: Wrong architecture 'i686'

Dismembering official packages reveals ‘i386‘ as the correct value.
