Emir says Qatar has overcome obstacles of Gulf blockade
Sheikh Tamim lays out economic achievements, says Doha ready to resolve disputes based on principle of mutual respect.
Qatar has overcome the effect of the blockade imposed on it by Arab countries in 2017, its emir has said in televised remarks.
Addressing Qatar's Shura Council on Tuesday, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani outlined the country's economic achievements and said the Gulf state will keep developing its food security and renewable energy sectors while working to further diversify its economy.
More:
On June 5, 2017, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Egypt severed diplomatic and trade relations with Qatar, closing land, air and sea links, as they accused Doha of supporting "terrorism" and their regional rival, Iran. Doha vehemently denies the charges and says the boycott aims to impinge on its sovereignty.
"We've overcome the obstacles of the blockade and we're also closer to achieving Qatar's national vision for the year 2030," the emir said.
Sheikh Tamim said Qatar has always been ready to resolve differences based on the principles of mutual respect and non-interference in internal affairs.
Economic achievements
On the economic front, the emir said Qatar would post a budget surplus this year, its first in three years, after a deficit a year ago.
Last year, the oil and gas-rich country had forecast a 4.3bn riyal ($1.1bn) budget surplus in 2019, after an estimated 28.1bn riyal deficit in 2018.
In May 2018, Qatar's largest commercial bank, Qatar National Bank (QNB), reported that the country's account surplus has widened to 6.4 percent of gross domestic product in the fourth quarter.
In his speech, Sheikh Tamim said the country's currency maintained its value despite various attempts aimed at dismantling it since the start of the Gulf diplomatic crisis.
The growth witnessed by Qatar's economy at various sectors, including education, health, food and agriculture, following the blockade are part of programmes adopted by the state to diversify its economy.
"We executed national programmes that enhanced local production," Sheikh Tamim said, referring specifically to the last three years.
"More importantly, the government sought to rebalance the country's budget, and worked on decreasing public spending while leaving priority projects unaffected," he added.
"Reports indicate that there is a noticeable improvement in economic diversification and enhancement of the private sector, as well as an enhancement in the agriculture and fishing sectors."
In his remarks, Sheikh Tamim noted there was more work to be done in order to enhance economic diversification and boost the country's growing private sector.
Decreasing bureaucratic processes that "hampers progression and development" was also a key goal, he said.

Cogen is a coroutine framework. Python 2.5 has support for coroutine-oriented programming (see :pep:342). Cogen is different than the more popular async network-oriented frameworks like twisted or asyncore in the sense that you do not have weird flows and callbacks. You write the code in a seamingly synchronous fashion using generators.
Because cogen does some stuff for you (like handle exceptions, pass results arounds and so on) you have to decorate all your generators that you want to use as coroutines:
from cogen.core.coroutines import coro
@coro
def mycoroutine():
...
yield
...

Suppose this example: In a coroutine you need to do something that usually blocks, like reading from a socket.
In cogen you would write a coroutine that yields that read call and expects the result like this:
@coro
def mysocketreader():
data = yield mysock.recv(1024)
print "Yay, I have data:", data
At that yield statement the coroutine will be paused. The framework will resume it when there’s data available on that socket and pass the available data through that yield statement.
What happens behind the scenes: mysock.recv(1024) actually returns a special object that gets passed to the framework and instructs it what to do with the coroutine. It’s like a request object. There objects are named Operations in cogen (see Operation).
Using generators like this has some limitations, for example, generators do not have a stack. So, suppose you have coro A calling coro B, usually one soves this by making A consume B. However, cogen does this in another way - the caller (A) yields B, and B works like the request object described in the previous section - so B will instruct the framework to run itself and when B is finised (or throws an exception) resume A and pass the result in.
Suppose we extend on the previous example:
@coro
def read(sock):
data = yield sock.recv(1024)
raise StopIteration(data)
@coro
def mycoro():
result = yield read(mysock)
print "Yay, data:", result
Since we can’t use the return statement with a value in a generator we use the standard StopIteration exception that is used internally by the generator mechanics.
Cogen is mainly composed of a scheduler, a proactor that handles the network calls, operations and your coroutines.
>>> from cogen.core.coroutines import coro
>>> from cogen.core.schedulers import Scheduler
>>>
>>> @coro
... def a(foo, times):
... for i in range(times):
... print foo, ':', i
... yield
...
>>> sched = Scheduler()
>>> sched.add(a, args=('foo', 5))
<a Coroutine instance at 0x01E29A80 wrapping <function a at 0x01E03130>, state: NOTSTARTED>
>>> sched.add(a, args=('bar', 10))
<a Coroutine instance at 0x01E29AD8 wrapping <function a at 0x01E03130>, state: NOTSTARTED>
>>> sched.run()
foo : 0
bar : 0
foo : 1
bar : 1
foo : 2
bar : 2
foo : 3
bar : 3
foo : 4
bar : 4
bar : 5
bar : 6
bar : 7
bar : 8
bar : 9

ImageReader
Rather than using the
ImageIO
class to perform the entire decoding
operation, an application may use the ImageIO
class to
obtain an ImageReader
object that may be used to
perform the read:
Iterator readers = ImageIO.getImageReadersByFormatName("gif"); ImageReader reader = (ImageReader)readers.next();
Readers may also be
retrieved based on file contents, file suffix, or MIME type. The
mechanism for locating and instantiating the reader makes use of
the javax.imageio.spi.ImageReaderSpi
class, which
allows information about a reader plug-in to be retrieved without
actually instantiating the plug-in. The notion of "service
provider interfaces" (SPIs) is described in detail in the
following chapter.
Once a reader has
been obtained, it must be supplied with an input source. Most
readers are able to read from an ImageInputStream
,
which is a special input source that is defined by the Image I/O
API. A special input source is used in order to make it simple for
reader and writers to work with both file and streaming I/O.
Obtaining an
ImageInputStream
is straightforward. Given an input
source in the form of a File
or
InputStream
, an ImageInputStream
is
produced by the call:
Object source; // File or InputStream ImageInputStream iis = ImageIO.createImageInputStream(source);
Once a source has been obtained, it may be attached to the reader by calling:
reader.setInput(iis, true);
The second parameter should be set to false if the source file contains multiple images and the application is not guaranteed to read them in order. For file formats that allow only a single image to be stored in a file, it is always legal to pass in a value of true.
Once the reader has
its input source set, we can use it to obtain information about the
image without necessarily causing image data to be read into
memory. For example, calling reader.getImageWidth(0)
allows us to obtain the width of the first image stored in the
file. A well-written plug-in will attempt to decode only as much of
the file as is necessary to determine the image width, without
reading any pixels.
To read the image,
the application may call reader.read(imageIndex)
,
where imageIndex
is the index of the image within the
file. This produces the same result as if it had called
ImageIO.read
, as shown above.
ImageReadParam
More control may be
obtained by supplying the read
method with an
additional parameter of type ImageReadParam
. An
ImageReadParam
allows the application to specify a
destination image in which the decoded image data should be stored,
allowing better control over memory use. It also allows a region of
interest to be specified, as well as subsampling factors that may
be used to obtain a scaled-down version of the image.
When a source region is set, the reader plug-in will attempt to decode only the desired region, to the extent that the file format allows partial decoding. In any case, no pixels outside the region will appear in the output. This capability makes it possible to work with extremely large images in a limited amount of memory.
For example, to
decode only the upper-left quadrant of the image, the application
first obtains an ImageReadParam
that is suitable for
use with the reader:
ImageReadParam param = reader.getDefaultReadParam();Next, the source region of interest is set on the
ImageReadParam
:
import java.awt.Rectangle; int imageIndex = 0; int half_width = reader.getImageWidth(imageIndex)/2; int half_height = reader.getImageHeight(imageIndex)/2; Rectangle rect = new Rectangle(0, 0, half_width, half_height); param.setSourceRegion(rect);
Finally, the image is
read using the ImageReadParam
:
BufferedImage bi = reader.read(imageIndex, param);
The result is a new
BufferedImage
whose width and height are equal to half
those of the original image (rounding down if the image had an odd
width or height).
The lower-right
quadrant of the image may then be read into the same
BufferedImage
that was created to hold the upper-left
quadrant, overwriting the previous pixel data:
param.setDestination(bi); rect = new Rectangle(half_width, half_height, half_width, half_height); param.setSourceRegion(rect); BufferedImage bi2 = reader.read(0, param); if (bi == bi2) { System.out.println("The same BufferedImage was used!"); } else { System.out.println("This can't happen!"); }
In practice, the
application could simply call reader.read(0, param)
without assigning the result anywhere, knowing that the pixels will
be written into the existing BufferedImage
bi
.
As another example,
to read every third pixel of the image, resulting in an image
one-ninth the size of the original, subsampling factors may be set
in the ImageReadParam
:
param = reader.getDefaultImageParam(); param.setSourceSubsampling(3, 3, 0, 0); BufferedImage bi3 = reader.read(0, param);
IIOParamController
A plug-in may
optionally supply an IIOParamController
object that
may be used to set up an IIOReadParam
(or
IIOWriteParam
) using a graphical user interface (GUI),
or any other interface. A reader plug-in may attach an
IIOParamController
to any ImageReadParam
objects that it creates:
ImageReadParam param = reader.getDefaultImageParam(); IIOParamController controller = param.getController(); if (controller != null) { controller.activate(param); }
When the
controller's activate
method is called, it
displays the GUI and handles user events such as slider movements
and button presses. Typically the interface will contain an
"OK" or "Apply" button, which when pressed will
cause the activate method to return. The controller is responsible
for calling methods on its associated ImageReadParam
to update its state, either in response to each GUI event, or all
at once prior to returning from activate
.
All the methods in the
ImageReader
class that deal with images take an
imageIndex
parameter. This parameter allows access to
any of the images in a multi-image file.
The
ImageReader.getNumImages
method returns the number of
images that are stored in the input file. This method takes a
boolean parameter, allowSearch
. Some image formats,
notably GIF, do not provide any way to determine the number of
images without reading the entire file. Since this may be costly,
setting allowSearch
to false
will allow
the reader to return a value of -1
instead of the
actual number of images. If the parameter is true
, the
reader will always return the actual number of images.
Even if the number
of images is not known by the application, it is still possible to
call read(imageIndex)
; if the index is too large, the
method will throw an IndexOutOfBoundsException
. Thus,
the application can request images with increasing indices until it
receives an exception.
Some image formats allow a small preview image (or multiple previews) to be stored alongside the main image. These "thumbnail" images are useful for identifying image files quickly, without the need to decode the entire image.
Applications can determine how many thumbnail images associated with a particular image are available by calling:
reader.getNumThumbnails(imageIndex);
If a thumbnail image is present, it can be retrieved by calling:
int thumbailIndex = 0; BufferedImage bi; bi = reader.readThumbnail(imageIndex, thumbnailIndex);

This sample shows how to draw a scene into an equirect layer. Equirect layers are similar to projection layers in terms of their advantages. They can be used for rendering static backgrounds like cube layers, but because it maps a square-shaped image over a sphere, distortion is required to correctly render objects. This is fine for rendering dedicated 360 images, but if we want to add objects to the background, we will need to apply distortion to these objects to ensure they are rendered correctly, whereas using cube layer can eliminate this process. Thus, the real edge of using an equirect layer over cube layer is to show 180/360 video. Back

Quantum mechanics has been a mystery since its first theory. Actually, Niels Bohr once said, “Those who are not shocked when they first come across quantum theory cannot possibly have understood it.” However, this mystery is believed to be the future of humanity. Many quantum-based developments are very beneficial to scientists. This article will discuss one of these inventions, quantum computers.
Quantum computing is defined as follows: It is the use of quantum mechanical phenomena like quantum entanglement, superposition, and parallelism to perform computation. The idea started in 1981. Richard Feynman, one of the most famous physicists, asked if we could simulate physics on a computer, quantum physics specifically. The idea was so unusual that many scientists disregarded it. However, in 1998, some researches created the first quantum computer (2-qubit). However, the field really took off in 2007 when a (28-qubit) computer was revealed.
Ordinary computers use 0s and 1s to represent everything. The quantum computers on the other hand use qubits. The qubits are subatomic particles in an isolated environment, they can be manipulated and controlled. Researchers generate pairs of entangled qubits, two qubits existing in one quantum state, which are the key to computers' computing powers whereas Adding extra entangled particles increase its capability of doing complex work.
The quantum computer are thrilling, not only because it is faster than ordinary computers, but also because it enables scientists to go with quantum mechanics to the next level. For instance, it would allow scientists to conduct virtual experiments. With its assistance, we can model the behavior of atoms at unusual conditions like high energy. The ability to model this experiment without actually doing it will save money and time. Also, scientists can model chemical reactions using quantum computers. Moreover, it is very useful in searching for a huge amount of data.
So, generally speaking, quantum mechanics scientists try to explore and discover natural laws. The quantum computers will help them manipulate and control quantum systems, achieving a better understanding of these laws. This path is still recent, and many scientists believed that we have only scratched the surface with these benefits, and there are many more applications waiting to be discovered.

Ex-Florida sheriff in school shooting sues over ouster
by The Associated PressFORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — A former Florida sheriff ousted following the Parkland high school massacre is suing over his removal from office.
Attorneys for ex-Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel say a federal lawsuit contends Gov. Ron DeSantis and the state Senate deprived him of due process and failed to follow a special master’s recommendation that he shouldn’t have been suspended from office.
The lawsuit is pending in Tallahassee federal court.
DeSantis removed Israel earlier this year, deeming him incompetent in his department’s response to the February 2018 shooting that killed 27 people at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. DeSantis appointed Gregory Tony to replace Israel.
Israel is running against Tony to get his old job back in the 2020 election.
Five other Democrats, a Republican and an independent also filed to run.

Adyen API Library for Java
The Checkout API service has the following methods:
Queries the available payment methods for a transaction based on the transaction context (like amount, country, and currency). Besides giving back a list of the available payment methods, the response also returns which input details you need to collect from the shopper (to be submitted to payments( )).
Although we highly recommend using this endpoint to ensure you are always offering the most up-to-date list of payment methods, its usage is optional. You can, for example, also cache the paymentMethods( ) response and update it once a week.
Checkout checkout = new Checkout(client);
PaymentMethodsRequest paymentMethodsRequest = new PaymentMethodsRequest();
paymentMethodsRequest.setMerchantAccount("YourMerchantAccount");
PaymentMethodsResponse response = checkout.paymentMethods(paymentMethodsRequest);
Sends payment parameters (like amount, country, and currency) together with the input details collected from the shopper. The response returns the result of the payment request:
Checkout checkout = new Checkout(client);
PaymentsRequest paymentsRequest = new PaymentsRequest();
Amount amount = new Amount();
amount.setCurrency("USD");
amount.setValue(1000L);
paymentsRequest.setReference("Your order number");
paymentsRequest.setAmount(amount);
paymentsRequest.setPaymentMethod(new HashMap<String, String>());
paymentsRequest.putPaymentMethodItem("number", "4111111111111111");
paymentsRequest.putPaymentMethodItem("type", "scheme");
paymentsRequest.putPaymentMethodItem("expiryMonth", "08");
paymentsRequest.putPaymentMethodItem("expiryYear", "2018");
paymentsRequest.putPaymentMethodItem("holderName", "John Smith");
paymentsRequest.putPaymentMethodItem("cvc", "737");
paymentsRequest.setReturnUrl("https://your-company.com/...");
paymentsRequest.setMerchantAccount("YOUR_MERCHANT_ACCOUNT");
PaymentsResponse paymentResponse = checkout.payments(paymentsRequest);
Submits details for a payment created using payments( ). This step is only needed when no final state has been reached on the payments( ) request (for example for 3D Secure, or when getting redirected back directly from a payment method using an app switch).
The exact details, which need to be sent to this endpoint, are always specified in the response of the associated payments( ) request. When sending in the request to paymentsDetails( ), make sure you send the corresponding paymentData as obtained during the payments( ) call.
In addition, the endpoint can be used to verify a payload, which is returned after coming back from the Checkout SDK or any of the redirect based methods on the Checkout API.
Checkout checkout = new Checkout(client);
PaymentsDetailsRequest paymentsDetailsRequest = new PaymentsDetailsRequest();
paymentsDetailsRequest.setPaymentData("Hee57361f99....");
HashMap<String, String> details = new HashMap<>();
details.put("MD", "sdfsdfsdf...");
details.put("PaRes", "sdfsdfsdf...");
paymentsDetailsRequest.setDetails(details);
PaymentsResponse paymentsResponse = checkout.paymentsDetails(paymentsDetailsRequest);

 They call this satirical intellectual game "The Plan," a hoax that connects the medieval Knights Templar with other occult groups from ancient to modern times. This produces a map indicating the geographical point from which all the powers of the earth can be controlled—a point located in Paris, France, at Foucault’s Pendulum. But in a fateful turn the joke becomes all too real.
The three become increasingly obsessed with The Plan, and sometimes forget that it's just a game. Worse still, other conspiracy theorists learn about The Plan, and take it seriously. Belbo finds himself the target of a real secret society that believes he possesses the key to the lost treasure of the Knights Templar.
That was when I saw the Pendulum.

According to Pew Research Center, 26% of American adults say that they haven't read -- even just parts -- of a book in the last year. That's more than 1 in 4 Americans.
Only 34% of Americans can name all three branches of the federal government, and only 37% can name their congressional representatives. How can the people of a country be empowered if they don't even understand the basic functionings of their government?
Reading and writing are important. Reading is how we come to learn from people's past mistakes, and how we come to grow and learn as individuals and as a society, while writing is how information is shared and refined. It's much easier to critique bad ideas when they're written down, which is why writing frequently can improve criticla thinking skills.
Even though I'm only 21 years old, I try to read and write as much as possible to learn from those who have gone before me, and to pass on anything I learn along the way. I'm the true recipient of benefits from this blog, but If I can pass on even a little bit of knowledge, wisdom, or appreciation to someone along the way, that's good too.


School children in act of defiance to prevent council removing Extinction Rebellion's stark warnings
'The council are saying they are dangerous and scary – but people need to be scared because Exeter being underwater is a scary prospect'.
by Howard LloydA group of school children have prevented council workers from removing Extinction Rebellion warnings over rising flood levels in Exeter.
Max Brady Hughes, aged 12, has missed school and been standing guard at Duckes Meadow since this morning to prevent the signs - which show how high water levels could be in the city in years to come - being removed.
Extinction Rebellion emblems are also visible on some of the tree stumps.
Max's dad, Caspar, said he was proud of Max's efforts to raise the issue of climate change.
"I am very proud, incredibly proud," he said. "Max and some friends have stayed there and the council have stopped.
"I was working in the library and I got a phone call from Max saying 'the council were trying to remove the flood level warnings and I am going to step them'.
"They were pressure-washing the tree next to her and had to stop in the end as Max refused to move.
"The council were trying to get rid of them. They were being very patronising saying ‘you can tell your little friends about your little protest’ but that gave Max the resolve to stay all day. The school rang and were supportive, surprisingly.
"When Isca Academy rang this morning, they said good on Max and it was good to take a stand."
Extinction Rebellion have since confirmed they were behind the signs, which they finished working on yesterday afternoon.
They claim it was based on data in the New Scientist - and the overwhelming feedback from the public had been positive.
"It is taking scientific facts and this shows what will happen in terms of climate change and rising sea levels," said a spokesperson.
"They have been put on very safely with no sharp edges.
"It made a lot of people stop and talk and say it is a good sign of what is coming. Many have said we need to do something about this before part of Exeter is underwater. Almost everybody was positive about it.
"When the council have declared a climate emergency, it seems a bit of a contradiction really that they would try and remove them really."
Caspar agreed, saying people had been supportive of the protest.
"The council are hiding behind safety issues. They are metal signs sealed on the edges so they are safe but the council are saying they are dangerous and scary – but people need to be scared because Exeter being underwater is a scary prospect," he said.
"Members of the public stopped to see what was going on – they very kindly left and came back down with a cup of hot chocolate."
Exeter City Council confirmed they had received a complaint about the 'criminal damage' and insisted it would be removed.
An Exeter City Council spokesperson said: “Whilst we sympathise with the sentiment behind the action – we too have declared a climate emergency – we do not however support criminal damage to achieve those aims.
“In Exeter we carry out the removal of graffiti throughout the city. This particular graffiti was reported to us by a member of the public and will therefore be removed by our team.”


Writing a Consumer Plugin
For a sample custom consumer, you can checkout the archiva-consumer-plugin at the archiva sandbox in the SVN repository:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/archiva/sandbox/archiva-consumer-plugin
Below are the steps on how to create a custom repository consumer and plug it in Archiva:
- Create a project for your component.
- Declare your class or in this case, consumer as a component as shown in the example below. This should be put at the class level.
Ex.
@plexus.component role="org.apache.maven.archiva.consumers.KnownRepositoryContentConsumer"
role-hint="discover-new-artifact"
instantiation-strategy="per-lookup"
where,
role: the interface that your class implements
role-hint: the lookup name of the component (your class/consumer)
instantiation-strategy: how your class will be instantiated
- Make sure to add the snippet below in the build section of the project's pom. This is needed to generate the components.xml.
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.plexus</groupId>
<artifactId>plexus-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.3.5</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>generate</id>
<goals>
<goal>descriptor</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
- Package your project by executing 'mvn clean package'
- Let's say you are using the apache-archiva-1.0-bin.tar.gz to run Archiva. Unpack the binaries then go to bin/linux-x86-32/ (assuming you are running on Linux), then execute './run.sh console'. Then stop or shutdown Archiva after it started. (This is necessary to unpack the war file.)
- Copy the jar file you created in step 4 in apache-archiva-1.0/apps/archiva/webapp/lib/
- Add the necessary configurations in archiva.xml (in this case, add 'discover-new-artifact' as a knownContentConsumer)
- Start up Archiva again.

I woke up early and read for a while but Mae talked me into coming back to bed. She woke me about 9 AM. I helped her some with perorations for Chelci’s Baby Shower. Sandi and Chelci came about 10 AM and other family came about 11 AM. I worked outside repairing a sprinkler fitting. I had to go to Durk’s to get some parts. After most of the guests left I went in and visited with Sandi and Chelci. This afternoon I installed the mirror on the wall. Jeff and Gail brought Benji over this evening for Mae to tend while they went out this evening. Mae and I watched a show on TV while Jeff and Gail went out this evening. They came about 11 PM to get Benji. We had just finished the movie. I filled out my journal before we went to bed.
Sunday, September 02, 2007
I got up at 7:45 AM and after normal morning routine Mae and I laid in bed and rubbed each others feet. While doing so we turned on the Tabernacle Choir Broadcast and then followed that by going to the BYU station and lessoning to Elder Henry B. Iring of the Council of the Twelve Apostles speak at the BYU Idaho 2003. It was a very enjoyable morning. We then got ready for church meetings. Nursery was very crowded with children and parents. There was 22 children today. I helped get things started and then I went into Priesthood class. I came back after class and helped put away toys and set up for the snack time. I then came home and got our donation check and took a 30 minute nap. I got back in time for Sacrament Meeting. Today being the first Sunday we had Fast & Testimony meeting. Almost all testimonies were given by Melchizedek Priesthood holders. I bore my testimony, not only for my own self but hoping that I could help others realize the importance of personal scripture study and prayer. We went straight from the church house to David and Shauna’s where we had been invited for dinner. They had prepared a nice roast, potatoes and vegetables. David and I talked most of the evening about the church. I don’t understand why or what has given David a fear of studding the scriptures as he has a fear that he might prove the church is not true. He said that he wishes whit all his soul that he could believe it is true. I don’t know if I helped him or not. It was about 9 PM when we got home. We had to stop in Roy and get gas for the car. We didn’t want to get the gas on Sunday but I was afraid that we would run out of gas before getting home or that we wouldn’t have enough to get to a station tomorrow. It took 13.5 gallons of gas on I believe a 13 gallon tank capacity. I started on my journal when we got home. Jeff called or had called and when Mae saw a missed call she returned his call. They are again thinking of the addition to their home. I sure love my children and would do any thing that will help them out. You sometimes you wonder, what is the best way to help them.
Monday, September 03, 2007
I left for Scott’s before 8 AM. Mae brought me a role of plastic that I had forgot to bring. She stayed there for a while and then went to her Beautician and got her hair done. Scott was there to help me and later Jeff came over and helped. We were able to get the main beams cut and assembled and got them standing and braced. At one point I was showing Jeff and Scott how to do something. Jeff made the comment to Scott that Dad doesn’t think his son’s are competent. I left them to do the job and in a few minutes Jeff called to me and said “Dad your son’s aren’t competent, come and help us. It was cute! It was after 6 PM when we quite for the day. Scott and Mishelle had planned on taking Mom and I out to eat but when we finished Scott was so tired that he ask if they could do it another evening. I guess I worked them to hard. I showered and cleaned up and then Mae and I watched a DVD movie “The Green Berets” before we went to bed.
Tuesday, September 04, 2007
I turned of the alarm and went back to sleep for another ½ hour. That put us ½ hour behind our plans this morning. I went over to Scott and Mishelle’s again today. Mae went up to Jenny’s for a appointment, then she went to the Ogden Temple and went through a session. Bob came over and helped me again today. I had Bob quite at 4 PM and when Scott came home he helped me. We quite at 6 PM, not quite finished, but I was tired. I packed up all my tools and brought them home as we will be going fishing the rest of the week with Randy and Judy. Mae had dinner ready when I got home. I worked on my journal, getting it caught up and printed off the past two months of entries. I tried to scan in some news paper articals but couldn’t get them where they were readable. We gave up and went to bed.
Wednesday, September 05, 2007
I got my scripture study in and ate some breakfast before going over to Valley Home Medical to an appointment with them to get a new mask for my C-pack. I called Valley glass as I was driving and they can’t get my glass shelves ready until about 1 PM. I told them I was leaving town by noon so I would have to get the shelves next Monday. I picked up some parts to repair Randy’s plumbing at the cabin. I then went over to Sportsman Warehouse and bought a port-a-potty to take with us in the boat. As I was returning Valley Glass called and said they had the shelves ready so I went over and got them. I stopped at the store and got some groceries for the trip. We ate lunch and got ready to go. Randy and Judy came about 1:30 PM and we left. It was 4:30 PM when we got to their cabin. I went right to work on the plumbing problem but lacked one coupler from being able to finish the job. I was able to get the pump working so we have water I the cabin. Mae and Judy prepared dinner and we ate. After dinner we played two games of Mormon Bridge although they call it Screwy Luy. It was after 10 PM when I finished my journal and we went to bed.
Thursday, September 06, 2007
I didn’t sleep very well with the new face mask. I am not sure just what I am going to do about the c-pack. Randy and I left at 7:15 AM for Evanston to get plumbing parts. I worked on the pump plumbing but still needed more parts so we made a second trip to Evanston. It was 3 PM when I finished with the pump and also installed a electrical switch for outside power. We hooked up the fifth wheel trailer and the boat to Randy’s truck. We had to stop in Evanston for fuel and then traveled on. The outfit travels well and we drove about 65 MPH most of the way. It was 7 PM when we got the fifth wheel set up. Mae cooked some hamburgers for dinner and after that we set around and just visited and reminisced about life. We prepared for Randy and I to go fishing in the morning about 7 AM. it was after 11 PM when we got to bed. It has been a very good day even though it took longer than we had planned to get the work done at the cabin.
Friday, September 07, 2007
I didn’t sleep the best last night because I ate dinner to late and I got cold. I got up at 6 AM and Randy and I went fishing. It was a beautiful morning and we had a good time. Randy caught about several fish and I caught three but we were only able to keep one because of the size limits. At least ½ of the fish we caught will die because of being injured when we removed the hook. I don’t like this limit control. One fish that we let loose turned belly up and we couldn’t revive it. Soon a sea gull flew down and pecked at it and then another chased it away and it pecked at it. A pelican flew down and scared the sea gulls away. It took one peck at the large fish and tossed it into the air and swallowed it whole. It was kind of neat to watch nature. We came back and picked Judy and Mae up at 11 AM. This afternoon Mae caught two fish and Judy caught one fish. We quite shortly after 5 PM and came back to the Marina. After loading the boat & cleaning the fish we went out to eat at the marina restaurant. The food was pretty good and we didn’t have to prepare it. This evening we played a game of cards before we went to bed. It has been a good day.

I slept much better last night. Randy and I again got up early and went out fishing. At 9 AM we came back and got Mae, who went out fishing with us. Judy didn’t feel very well so she stayed at the RV. Randy had caught two nice fish that we were able to keep so we sent them back with Judy. We fished until 11 AM with Randy catching a couple more fish that we had to turn back. Mae caught a couple of fish that we were able to keep one of them. I didn’t catch any today. Judy had lunch ready for us when we came in about noon. After eating we packed up and came home. We stopped and got a frozen yogurt in Heber. It was about 4:30 PM when we got home. We unpacked and I put the boat away. While we ate a light dinner we watched a football game between BYU & UCLA. BYU lost due to a bad first ½ and too many penalty. Mae gave me a hair cut this evening. We took showers and went to bed very tired.
Sunday, September 09, 2007
Our Sunday morning was much lake last Sunday. We had a light breakfast and then laid in bed watched the Tabernacle Choir followed by a BYU Devotional. I took a nap and then we went to church. Bob had came down and asked if I would help give Carroll a blessing. She hasn’t been feeling well. Bob anointed her and Bob, Mark and I sealed the anointing and gave her a blessing. I was asked to be voice in this ordinance. Nursery went well although we were short some help so I stayed in and helped until after we took the children into the other room for the lesson. I then set up the tables for snacks and I went into the adult Sunday School class. I returned after class and helped put things away and clean up. In Sacrament meeting the Four R’s gave the program. They sang a serious of spiritual songs. After meeting Mae and I went over to Scott and Mishelle’s for dinner. We enjoyed the evening with them. We stopped at Tina’s and visited with her for a few minutes before coming home.
Monday, September 10, 2007
I didn’t sleep very well because of my c-pack. I got up shortly after 6 AM. Mae hadn’t slept very well so I let her sleep in a little longer. Bob prepared breakfast of biscuits and gravy. I left just before 8 AM and went over to Scott’s. Bob also came over and helped me. Mae did laundry, cleaned my c-pack, packed my suit case for my trip to Idaho, bought a bushel of peaches, picked up the throw carpets we had bound, bottled 21 quarts of peaches and prepared several peaches for drying. She also had dinner ready when I got home. Bob and I finished the framing of Scott and Mishelle’s patio. Bob left about 4 PM for home. I was another hour picking up all my tools and getting things finished up. I went over to Durk’s plumbing to pickup materials for Sherman’s. Jarred was going to have my order pulled but he got sick and didn’t come in today. Bill and I pulled the things that we think I will need to install the rest of Crag and Carla’s heat system. It was after 6 PM when I left there. I quickly showered and shaved and changed clothes to go Home Teaching. Our first appointment was at 6:30 PM so Mark went with Bob to visit them. Bob and I went over to Patriarch and Sister Johnston’s and then stopped by Casey’s. it was almost 9 PM when we got home. Mae was still doing peaches. I helped her a little buy she did 99% of it. I filled out Sherman’s statement and caught up my journal before we went to bed.
Tuesday, September 11, 2007
I got up at 5:45 AM and started my normal morning. I let Mae sleep in as she didn’t sleep very well last night. Bob prepared waffles for breakfast and then I started getting ready to go to Idaho. Before leaving I put the camp trailer under the canapé and I put the blinds up in front of the sun room windows. It was almost 10 AM when I left. I stopped in Ogden and filled up with gas. When I got to Inkom I was sleepy so I pulled into the truck stop. I called Mae and asked her to set the timer for 30 minutes and when it went off asked her to call me. I slept for that 30 minutes. I stopped in Pocatello at a Maverick and bought a frozen yogurt. When I got to Rire traffic was being diverted. One of the men said that I would have to go by the Rexburg rout as there was a bad accident at the Snake River bridge and traffic would be held up for several hours. Just then one of the men received a phone call and he said to let us go through as it was ok now. It was 4 PM when I got to Victor. Victor has sure changed since I lived here. Craig took me to their new house and we went over some of the plans for the heat installation. The contractor was there and he asked if I needed the furnace room wall sheet rocked in order to start the installation. When I said I did, he stayed and hung the sheet rock. I should be able to start first thing in the morning. I came back to their home in Victor. Carla was cooking dinner so I ate and then went downstairs to the bed room where I will sleep. Carla changed the bedding for me. When I drove through Swan Valley I thought on the experience Dad, Roy and I had with a bull so this evening I wrote up the experience. After getting it written I check through my stories and found that I had already written it up. By the time I entered my journal and wrote the story it was after 9 PM. I read my scriptures this evening to save time in the morning. I then went to bed after playing three games on the computer.
Wednesday, September 12, 2007
I woke us about 2 AM with my c-pack mask bothering me so I took it off. I again woke about 5 AM and stayed up. I fixed myself some breakfast and was ready for work at 7 AM. Craig and I picked up a few items at the lumber yard and then went to the house. I decided to build a run for all the pipes so that it would look neat instead of looking like a plate of spagitti. I pressure tested all the lines and the last line to hook up today has a leak in it. When I got home I visited with Graig’s son-in-law before washing up and eating. I took a shower and called Mae. She was out to eat with our friends. Mae called me back when she was on the way home. We talked for a while. I was going to read my scriptures tonight but I was too tired. I played a game of solitary and went to bed shortly after 9 PM.
Thursday, September 13, 2007
I didn’t sleep very well with the c-pack on so about 12:30 AM I pulled it off and slept the rest of the night without it. I think I will try my old face mask tonight. I got up at 5 and used the bathroom so I slept until 6 before getting up. I made me some cooked cereal for breakfast. I was at work about 7 AM. it went fairly well but I am short three parts. Craig went to town to try to find them but they are not in the valley. I guess we will have to go to Rexburg tomorrow to get them. I got most of the boiler and potable water heater set. I don’t know how the plumber is planning to set his items. Craig called him and he acted almost rude with me an said he can’t get her today or tomorrow so I will put my things the way I want them. Craig’s contractor also said that I was her first so to do what I want. Craig’s son-in-law will run the main poser for me. I think I am in pretty got shape to finish tomorrow. I quite work at 7 PM. after getting something to eat and making me a new pitcher of whey, I went down stairs and took a shower. I called Mae but she was still busy with the Sisters at the Book Group. She called me back and we visited for a while. By the time I finished my journal it was bed time.
Friday, September 14, 2007
I got up and was ready to go by 7:15. Craig and I went over to a couple of stores for supplies but couldn’t get all I need so we went to Driggs. I was amazed at the traffic going through this valley. The eight miles to Driggs was packed until I couldn’t find one break in which you had time to pass a slow driver. I told Craig that they need a four lane road. I find very few places that have remained even similar to what they were when we lived here except for the narrow highway between Victor and Driggs. After getting what we needed we went to the house and got started. I got the system all assembled and one zone completely wired so that Peter, Craig’s son-in-law, can finish that wiring. On the way back to town I drove around town a little to see what was the same and there isn’t much that I recognize. After getting back to Craig and Carla’s I washed up and ate dinner. I then came downstairs to my room and called Mae. She was out for a minute and when she came back in she called and we visited for a few minutes. I got most of my journal entry made and then took a shower. Elis came down and knocked on my door. She had brought her parents over so I went up and Craig, Carla, Elis, Rich, Lois and I played Mormon Bridge until late. We then set and visited until almost mid-night before we went to bed. It was a very enjoyable evening.
Saturday, September 15, 2007
I slept in until 7 AM and then started getting ready to go home. Carla prepared a nice breakfast and I enjoyed having Rich and Lois there. After eating Rich and I started over to Crag and Carla’s new home. We drove around in town trying to recognize some of the old homes and land marks. There is very little that is the same. We went over to Carla’s new home where the woman had already got there. After taking some more pictures I left for Teton. I called Mae and she told me that the sewer line had backed up and water had spilled onto the floor and some of the carpet had got wet. Mae really sounded beat and tired. I went on to Teton to see Uncle Lee and Aunt Welma. Uncle Lee was there but Aunt Welma is now in a rest home in Afton. I took Uncle Lee with me and we went over to the rest home and saw Aunt Welma. I don’t think she know who I was. It was really sad to see her so old and so near gone. I hope she doesn’t have to remain this way very long. When I took Uncle Lee back home he had me get some apples from his trees. It was almost 3 PM when I left to come home. When I got to the rest stop near Blackfoot I called Mae and had her call me back in 30 minutes. I got my pillow and went to sleep until Mae called me. I drove on to Pocatello where I stopped and got gas, a sandwich and a frozen yogurt. I drove on home getting there about 6:30 PM. we soon went to bed but watched a show on TV before going to sleep. I am sure grateful to be home with my sweetheart.
Sunday, September 16, 2007
I slept in and when we got up Bob cooked some waffles for us. We went to another Wards Sacrament meeting in another Ward at 10:50 AM. We then came home for a ½ hour before going back and taking care of the nursery. We had about 15 or 16 children come today. By the time nursery was over we were beat. We came on home as our family came for a back yard cook out. We visited and played games. All the Grand children come to Grandma and have her play with them. My boys and I played horse shoes for a while. We cooked hot dogs and hamburgers and had all the trimmings to go with it. It was a wonderful afternoon and evening. Sandi and Nix couldn’t come as Chelci’s water broke and they took her to the hospital. By 9:30 PM nothing had happened yet. We are tired and will got to bed.
Monday, September 17, 2007
We got up after 7 AM and probably would have slept longer but Gail brought Benji at 7:45 for Mae to tend today. after breakfast I took some return items back to Durk’s for credit on the Sherman job. Bob was going out this morning so I asked him to pick up a battery for the boat for me. While I was out I stopped at Home Depot and got a new filter for my shop vacuum and some saw blades. Sandi called us to let us know that Chelci had a baby boy at 5:15 AM, he weighed 6 lb. 14 oz and all is well with both mother and baby. We were excited for the news. I helped Mark for about four hours or more today. I got the batteries for the tent trailer charged up and reinstalled and the new battery put in the boat. Mae has been busy all day with Benji, house work and getting ready for our trip. Nike came and got the camp trailer this evening. Mae when grocery shopping this evening for the things we will need for our trip tomorrow. I replaced the brake pads in Bob’s car this evening. Mae and I got most of the things for the trip packed and in the pickup this evening. It was after 11 PM when I entered this journal entry. I think Mae has already gone to bed but I have still got to take a shower tonight.
Tuesday, September 18, 2007
We got up at 4:30 AM and hurried to finish packing the truck and connecting up the boat and left about 6 AM. We got to Heber city about 7:15 AM but was only about 10 minutes behind Nick. We got a hot sandwich at the Sinclair station at the north end of town. I also filled the boat up with gas and got another 5 gallon of gas for the generator. We got to Strawberry reservoir about 9 AM and set up our camp. After getting everything set up Nick and I went fishing. Mae stayed and rested at camp and worked on a few of her items. It was quite windy but we had fair luck. I caught 5 fish and Nick caught 6 fish. We were only able to keep one of them as they were too large. We quit and came back to camp at 4 PM. Mae had dinner ready. After eating and doing a few things around camp we played games until almost 9 PM and then went to bed.
Wednesday, September 19, 2007
Nick and I got up early and ate breakfast and then went fishing. We did quite well as we caught 12 fish but because of the slot limit we were only able to keep one fish. The wind came up about the time we were coming in for lunch. The one runner on the boat broke loose and we had to repair it before we could load the boat. We did a temporary repair and it held even though we loaded the boat in a wind storm. After lunch Nick and I went to Heber for some supplies. The wind continued to blow all the rest of the day so we didn’t go back out fishing. I repaired the boat trailer and we refilled the water tank on the tent trailer. Mae made a nice dinner. After dinner we played some games. We quit a little after 9 PM. I shaved this evening before we went to bed. Mae has been able to relax most of the day. She isn’t feeling the best. After making this entry we went to bed.
Thursday, September 20, 2007
Nick and I went fishing this morning early so that we were on the lake before 7 AM. The hydraulic lift on the motor isn’t working right. I got it down most of the way so we could us it but when we came back in it wouldn’t life the prop. We worked on it at the ramp and found that it was due to corroded wires. When I cleaned it up it worked fine. We didn’t do very well as we only caught 5 fish, one was a chub and the other was just less than 15 inches. It was 1:30 PM before we left for Fish Lake. We had to stop in Orem and also Richfield for natural gas which held us up. It was about 7:30 PM when we got to Fish Lake so we were late setting up. We went to bed after 10 PM.
Friday, September 21, 2007
We got up and cooked fish for breakfast. Mae sleep better last night so she went out fishing with us. We all caught and part of the time we all had fish on at the same time. Most of the fish were small so we let all that were caught just by the lip go. We quite fishing at noon and came in with 11 fish. After lunch we rested and took showers and a nap. We went out fishing again and again let most of them go as they were small and we wanted to catch a large one. We quite and went out to eat at 7 PM at the Bower’s Store and Cafe. After eating we were going to go fishing in the dark but the wind had came up so we came back to the trailer and played games until 10 PM when we went to bed.
Saturday, September 22, 2007
I got up about 5:30 AM and went outside. It was still dark and the stars were so bright and beautiful. There is such a peace that I get from looking at the stars. I don’t know that I can explain just what it is but the realization that there is a God that created all this with such precision and unchanging control. It is amazing to me to try to understand how someone can look up into the starry sky and no believe in a God and a supreme creator. As I stood looking at the sky this morning I just felt so good to say my morning prayer to my Heavenly Father as I stared at the stars.
We got up and prepared fish and fried potatoes for breakfast. Nike and I went fishing this morning. Mae didn’t go with us this morning but help us get breakfast before we went. We were on the lake at 6:50 and by 7:05 we had caught our first fish. We continued to catch fish for the next 2 ½ hours. Any of the fish that were hooked in the lip we just turned loose. I don’t know how many fish we caught but we sure had fun. A storm came in about 9:30 AM and we got off the lake. It took us a while to get the boat off the lake and then we cleaned our fish.  We hurried and cleaned up the rest, but it started to rain before we could get the trailer down, so the tent got wet. Mae had also prepared a lunch for us so after getting everything ready to leave we set at the picnic table and ate our lunch. It was noon when we left for home. We had to stop at the sanitary dump and trash bin before leaving. We sent to Richfield where we gassed up and then traveled on to Oram and again got natural gas there. We met Sandy at Salt Lake as she brought my paint pump back. She road up to our place with Nike. Nike helped me put things away while Mae and Sandi prepared some dinner. We then played a game of marbles. It was after 9 PM when Sandi and Nike left for home. I was to tired to enter this journal so I went to bed. Mae stayed up and cleaned up the house.
Sunday, September 23, 2007
We slept until 8 AM. Bob cooked fish, fried potatoes and biscuits for breakfast at 9 AM. Mae and I had to hurry after eating as we wanted to attend Sacrament meeting with the Clarks. They will be leaving on another mission to Denmark. The meeting was very spiritual and I sure enjoyed being there. After the meeting we went to a park just a little ways from the Clarks house and had a light lunch and visited for a few minutes. The Hyers were there and we enjoyed visiting with them. They have been asked to go back to the Philippines and try to correct the Perpetual Education Fund there as there is no money being returned to the fund from those that are receiving it from that country. They are very apprehensive about what can be done. The Philippines people just do not have the culture custom of repaying anything that is given them. I just wished them the best of luck.
We returned to our Ward and got there about ½ way through with Nursery and in time for Mae to give the lesson. She did very well and I think the children enjoyed the lesson. We returned home after Nursery. We were so tired that we just laid down and took a nap. Bob brought part of their family down to see the apartment. We had already woke and had got some waffles for our dinner. While we ate we started to watch “Blood Alley” on a DVD, when they came down. We got up, got dressed and went upstairs and visited with Bob , Carroll and some of their family. Irven and Sandy were also there. After the family left we came back downstairs and finished our show. I then made this journal entry. It was after 11 PM when we got to bed. It has been a very enjoyable day.
Monday, September 24, 2007
We slept in until 8 AM and after normal morning activity we ate breakfast. My back is really hurting me today. Mae called the Doctor and went in to be checked as she has had this cold hang on so long. The doctor said that her lungs are clear. He feels that this is bacterial and gave her a prescription that should clear it up. I checked our fire place and the thermostat wire is shorted and will have to be replaced. Bob wants my help putting on the rear brakes to his car. I pulled the snowmobile trailer out and started up the snowmobiles to let them run out old gas. While they were running I cut down the weeds that were growing around the area that the trailer set. I asked Bob to go get me some thermostat wire and I started the brakes. I could not loosen the lug nuts on the car and had to rent a power in packed wrench to get the rear wheels off. When I took the first side apart I found that the new brake shoes were not the right ones for his car. Bob took them back to where he bought them. I showered and went to Randy’s and had him give me a treatment. Mae has been busy getting washing from last week done up and started packing and planning for this weeks trip. It was after 10 PM when I filled out this entry and we went to bed. I did answer a E-mail that we received from Linda today. Bob also prepared liver and onions for dinner about 4 PM. It was sure good.
Tuesday, September 25, 2007
Bob prepared breakfast of biscuits and gravy this morning. After breakfast Mae went to the Temple with Marna McPhee. I repaired our fireplace as the thermostat wire had shorted out when the carpeting was installed. I replaced the old wire with a new wire. I then finished the replacing of the rear brake shoes on Bob car. That was a job mainly because it has been such a long time since I have changed the conventionally shoe brake pads. I then went over to Irven and Sandy’s and shut of the water to their swamp cooler and put a pad in the ceiling vent. I came home and took a quick shower before going back to Randy’s for a follow up treatment. When I got home I helped Mae with the packing for our trip. I also loaded the software for our new camera and downloaded the pictures from the camera to our computer. It is almost 11 PM so we will go to bed now.
Wednesday, September 26, 2007
I woke up at 4:15 AM with the start of a cold. As the day went on my cold got worse. I let Mae sleep until 6 AM and then we started packing. It was 9 AM before we left the house. We stopped for natural gas and found that the electrical adapter that I used on the trailer is not long enough and it comes unplugged when I turn a right turn. I tried to repair it but finally called Bob and asked him to bring me the adapter from the boat trailer. We had planned to visit Chelci and her new baby but with both Mae and I having colds we called her and said we would come and visit when we are feeling better. We don’t want to expose Chelci or the baby to these colds. We met Sandi in Tooele and went to her new home. It is beautiful and large. She would like me to come out and build a craft room. I will have to do it when we get back from this trip. When we got to Orem to get natural gas the pump wasn’t working. We had to go on to Springfield where we got gas. We also stopped at Fillmore and Cedar City for natural gas. Just as we were leaving the freeway to go to the park, Jackie Thomas called Mae and told her that the one secretary had fallen and broke her leg very seriously and would be off work for at least two months or longer. they would like Mae to come back to work to fill in for her. Mae will have to decide in the next two days. It was almost 8 PM when we got to Zion National Park. When we got our camp site we found that there are electrical hookups only. That does present a problem but there is nothing that we can do about it now. It was late when we got set up and something to eat. After eating I worked on my journal while Mae did up the dishes. We then had to play games for a while to let the dinner set before we could go to bed.
Thursday, September 27, 2007
I didn’t sleep very well and was awake early this morning. I napped several times today. It was relaxing to be here in Zion’s National Park. Jeff and Gail got here about 3 PM. This evening we went for a walk just up to the ranger gate and back. after returning and putting Benjamin to bed, we enjoyed playing games.
 We had a nice breakfast and then went for a hike up to Zion’s Arch. It was mile round trip hike. We sure enjoyed it. We came back and relaxed at camp. About 5 PM we went into town and did a little shopping. We bought some ice cream and they also had some frozen yogurt for me. Jeff and Gail’s friend, Stewart, Neisha and their three children Kyler, Adderly and Mckye came this evening. They are in a tent camping area but we are inviting them to eat and spend time with us. This evening we fried hamburgers and roasted hot dogs. Mae of course had all the trimming and salad to with it. The Baur’s had reservations for a tent area and so was some distance from us. We discussed going on a hike in the morning and finally Jeff and I decided to hike Angels Landing. Mae was quite upset that I would try it as I haven’t felt well for the past three days but we decided to do it. We prepared before going to bed to leave at 7 AM.
Saturday, September 29, 2007
I woke at 5:30 AM and went over to the bathroom. I got me some breakfast and woke Jeff. It was just after 7 AM when we left. Mae did get up and help me get off. It was a beautiful morning and we enjoyed the hike. It was a very enjoyable hike and I was surprised how fast we made it to the top pf the switch backs. It was only another ½ mile to the top but it was the slowest part of the trip. We sure enjoyed the view and the feeling that we had made it there. We stayed for sometime there at the top and ate some snacks and visited. As we returned we found several people that gave up and returned with out going all the way. We returned to camp about 12:30 PM so we made good time. I took a nap after we ate some lunch. The Baur’s came over and played games. I took a nap. This afternoon Jeff, Gail, Benji, Mae and the Baur’s all went up to the river trail. I stayed in camp to cook the Dutch oven dinner for tonight. I did go to town and get Jeff some Lime Diet Coke and some ice. I also bought me another frozen yogurt. I had trouble getting the fire hot enough to cook on but I had dinner ready before Mae and all of them returned. It cooled off quite a lot this evening. We sure enjoy having the heater in the trailer. Mae and Gail went to Springdale and paid to take showers. They brought me a token for tomorrow but it was to late this evening.
Sunday, September 30, 2007
We got up and made breakfast. The Baur’s came over for breakfast and then thanked us for being able to come down with us. They went back to their camp and started packing to go home. I took a shower in the camp trailer. Gail, Benji, Mae and I attended Sacrament meeting in Springdale. While we were gone Jeff filled the water tank, did dishes and packed their things so they were about ready to leave for home. We ate the rest of the Dutch oven dinner left over from last night. After eating Jeff, Gail and Benji soon left for home. I took a nap and Mae read. Mae and I then packed us a lunch and we went on the Park Shuttle to the Narrows and took the River Walk. We got off the shuttle where we could see Angles Landing and I explained where Jeff and I hiked yesterday. We then caught the next shuttle and road on up to the Narrows. We hiked the trail to the nerror’s and returned back to the shuttle. It was dark when we got back to our trailer so we soon went to bed. It is sure nice to be alone with my sweetheart.

The Grid Not intentionally a Tron reference
Essence
The 960 Grid System is an effort to streamline web development workflow by providing commonly used dimensions, based on a width of 960 pixels. There are two variants: 12 and 16 columns, which can be used separately or in tandem. Read more.
Dimension
The 12-column grid is divided into portions that are 60 pixels wide. The 16-column grid consists of 40 pixel increments. Each column has 10 pixels of margin on the left and right, which create 20 pixel wide gutters between columns. See this in action.
Source Order
By utilizing the push-XX and pull-XX classes, elements can be rearranged, independent of the order in which they appear in the markup. This allows you to keep more pertinent info higher in the HTML, without sacrificing precision in your page layout. For instance, view the source code of this site to see how the #content
area has been re-positioned.

We use two grid variants, 12 and 16. To initiate one of the other is to start with a container. A container consists of HTML with a class that contains CSS properties that will create a block element, 960px wide.

 …

and:

 …

CSS
The CSS for this is simple, margin's for the left and right are set to auto which with center a 960px block level element. Position is set to relative in order to allow for absolutely positioned elements within a particular zone.
.container-12, .container-16 { position:relative; margin:0px auto; width:960px; overflow:hidden; text-align:left; }

Some HTML code snippets to put this all together
View comprehensive code on the demo page.
To the right is an example of how the code works. The container specifies how many total columns exist, either 12 or 16. For the most part, you will only ever need to specify a class name of .grid-XX
, where XX represents the column width.
If a grid unit contains grid children, the first child in a row will need a class of alpha and the last child in a row requires the class name omega. Likewise, if you want to insert empty space before or after a grid unit, use class .prefix-XX
or .suffix-XX
.
Nine-Sixty
All modern monitors support at least 1024 × 768 pixel resolution. 960 is divisible by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 16, 20, 24, 30, 32, 40, 48, 60, 64, 80, 96, 120, 160, 192, 240, 320 and 480. This makes it a highly flexible base number to work with.

Code Commenting Be kind, rewind
HTML Commenting Standards
When there is a mess of HTML code and a ton of closing tags, sometimes it is not easy to figure out which closing

is the one we're looking for. Some say that commenting opening and closing HTML tags is necessary to help developers code read clearer. Although we agree with the sentiment, this is a bit much. We want the support team to easily traverse our code, and not just them, anybody who needs to edit code should be left well written, semantic, code.
We comment ending blocks where ever a class or ID tag was used. The syntax is simple, directly after the closing tag, start an HTML comment tag then add END and the classes or IDs in order in which they appear logically using periods for classes (.) and number sign for ID's (#) with spaces between each.
Example markup
Here is some code one might see for a Content & Sidebar zone…

CSS Commenting Standards
Similarly we want to make our CSS comfortable to traverse for anybody besides ourselves who will be coming back to make edits. Remember this is more if a 'when' not 'if', people change their websites frequently and these need to be a flexible, and future proof as possible. The standard comment block has a line break before and after a line of comment. Also if there is something that may confuse another developer, write a comment, after the CSS attribute and value.
/* --- --- */
/* --- Navigation --- */ .nav-inner { background-color: #2c2c2c; /* Required for effect */ } /* --- Content --- */ article .page-header { padding-top:80px; }
Push & Pull No physical contact required
Source Order
Sometimes the order in which we write our HTML is out of place with where something should presentationally display. We can rearrange the order of items in our document with a few classes. Some examples of this would be if a company logo is, presentationally, after less important information in the header. The 960.gs shows this well. If we view source on their landing page one will see the logo before the first content box about downloading, but the logo is pushed four columns to the right and the download box is pulled four columns to the left. Their code is slightly different than ours, we use dashes '-' not underscores '_' but it accomplishes the same effect.
Another example is the Card Law Firm. The layout for this site has the sidebar before the content. Well it's obvious we all want to get to the content before the sidebar, so we use the push and pull CSS tags to push the content (first in the HTML document) to the right, or past the columns required for the sidebar; and then pull, to the left, the sidebar (second in the HTML document) back past the content columns.
Pull
Pull code is the opposite of the push and starts similarly with pull-
followed by the number of columns to the left one is pulling ones content. Back to the Card Law Firm, if we view source the sidebar, which comes after the content in the HTML is, being pulled twleve columns to the left to using CSS to move that sidebar before the content.
Example Code

 …

Push
The push code is straight forward, it starts with .push-
followed by the number of columns to the right one is pushing ones content. Using Card Law Firm as an example, if we view the source of this site we see the content comes first in the HTML, and is being pushed four columns to the right.
Example Code

  …

Prefix & Suffix Offsetting columns
Padding
The prefix and suffix classes are used within the grid to add columns of padding before or after a grid area. So if a header is designed with a logo that takes up six grid columns, and the content for the right half of the sidebar had three columns that are unused, and the content starts again, this would be one example where one could use a prefix or a suffix to fill the gap. .prefix-
followed by a number makes that numbers worth of columns in padding-left:;
to move the content X columns via padding.
Likewise the opposite, .suffix-
followed by the a number makes that numbers worth of columns in padding-right:;
to add padding after content.

Alpha & Omega Similar to the first and last letters of the Greek alphabet, sort of…
Out of the gutters
Each column of the 12 or 16 grid system has 10px margin on the left and right called gutters. If one were to use .grid-2
this would take up two columns, absorbing the width of the gutters between those columns, and adding 10px margin-left
and margin-right
. If there are nested grid's within a design, then removing the extra margin will keep most designs from breaking to the next line. The last demo below is the result of not using .alpha or .omega for any of these nested grid elements, the last .grid-3
falls to the next line.
Demo
Code Example Real case use

 … These two div's are nested in a .grid-16, 8 + 8 is 16 …

 … and since the .grid-16 has it's left and right margin we remove the left and right margins, respectfully, in our two .grid-8's.
