Created in September 1995 after two years of efforts, the 3.4 million km2 area of Kaa Iya National Park in the "Great Chaco" is one of Latin America's largest protected areas and one of the most distinctive and lively biodiversity refuges, containing jaguars, white-lipped peccaries, guanacos, pumas, deer and tapirs. Reptiles and birds also abound in the area. Located at the heart of the Bolivian "Chaco", southeast of the city of Santa Cruz towards the Paraguayan border, Kaa Iya with its dry topsoil and its extreme temperature range from hot to cold, is considered one of the world's remote areas. Considered the largest dry tropical forest area in the world, Kaa Iya contains an incredible range of animal species, featuring some of the last remaining large felines, as well as over 100 species of mammals.

Ride The Flume Lyrics
Artist: NoMeansNo
Album: The Sky Is Falling, And I Want My Mommy
If I could travel back in time
I'd go to 1899
High in the Sierra Hills
And ride the lumber down the Sanger flume
The flume
Ride the flume
Ride the flume
Ride the flume
Watch out for that tree
Forget log rides in amusement parks
This one's 50 miles long
Water slide with four foot sides
Down the mountain, 60 miles an hour
Drop through the Devil's Slide
Four thousand feet in 13 miles
Miss a curve, ya sail into space
Hope them 2 x 4's don't break
The flume
Ride the flume
Ride the flume
Me and you
Watch out for that tree
Watch out for that tree!
To the sides of the cliffs we cling
The trestle creaks
As we're swept across the canyon
100 feet below
Rickety timbers - please don't fail me now
Oh no...
Watch out for that tree
Watch out for that tree
Or its pine cone sex face first
For you and me.

text: Magazine Maintenance - The Heart of Your Semiautomatic Needs Your Attention Handguns Online Staff - December 14, 2017 Magazines live a hard life. They're dropped on the ground, in sand, in puddles, in the mud. They're stepped on and kicked. They're carried in pockets where they collect lint. And most shooters never clean them. Under these circumstances even the best magazines will eventually fail, and even if you do care for them, normal wear and tear can lead to structural problems that will turn your semiautomatic into a slow one-shooter.Extending the life of your magazine starts with maintenance. For those who do not have a skilled shooter to show you how, there are plenty of reference materials—owners manuals, books, videos—you can use as a guide. Just remember to always wear safety glasses when working on springs or parts that can take off at high speed.Between or during cleanings there are easy things you can do to keep your mags in good working order. Inspect your magazines in good light and with a magnifying glass or a pair of reading glasses in the 2.0 range. Also, you want to mark all your magazines so you can quickly identify a problem one and take it out of service—and keep it there. Here are seven things to be looking for or at.1. Cracked feed lips Hold the magazine under a bright light and inspect the outside body to ensure the feed lips are not cracked or bent. Check the rear corners at the 90-degree junction, as this is the weak point. Under pressure of the loaded rounds, the cracked feed lip expands sideways, often causing the mag to bind in the mag well. Failure to drop free by simply pressing the magazine release puts you on notice of a problem. 2. Dented or cracked mag body A side dent can prevent loading all rounds into the magazine or it releasing free of the handgun. Look for any dents in the magazine body that can be caused by being dropped or stepped on. While polymer magazines have proven to be resistant to impact damage, they must be checked, as splits have happened at the rear corners and seams with both metal and polymer magazines. Floorplates can be damaged from being dropped and even from being over-inserted. These are easily replaced. Cracked feed lips, on the other hand, mean it's time for the magazine to go. 3. Weak magazine spring Weak springs can cause a failure to feed, so it is important to monitor spring condition. Do so by checking spring length and how it feels as you load the magazine. As you load the first two or three rounds, does the spring feel "soft," like it has lost power? It helps to have an example of a new magazine and spring to use for comparison.It's a topic of some discussion, but I have seen springs take a "set" from remaining fully loaded for a long time. I saw this in a training class when a pistol was fired with a mag that had been fully loaded as a backup magazine for years.The gun repeatedly failed to feed, and the top round stove-piped. If you experience this phenomenon, do not stretch the spring back to original length and expect it to work properly. Change it out. Brownells carries many types of the highest quality mag springs at low cost, so it is easy to keep extras on hand. 4. Loose, cracked or broken floorplates Both metal and plastic base plates can crack or break when dropped on hard surfaces, and a 1911 magazine can be loaded into the mag well with such force that it breaks off the front of the floorplate—resulting in the magazine being driven past the mag catch and creating a malfunction that requires tools to remedy. On the street, this failure will be unfixable, which is why I use a metal floorplate or an extended-length polymer one on my carry 1911s.Further, if the floorplate is not locked in place, it can slide forward when dropped or when the pistol recoils in the shooter's hand, and that is a serious problem.Simply check your floorplates and replace if necessary. 5. Slide will not lock back When the last round is fired, the magazine spring presses the follower upward against the slide-stop projection to lock the slide to the rear. There must be full spring power to do so.You can use an unloaded magazine to test this. The follower extension located at the top left corner of the follower is what activates the slide stop when the last round is fired. If the follower breaks or is damaged, the slide will not lock back. In one instance I saw a follower extension break off and fall into the magazine, causing a failure to feed.6. Debris and moisture Drop your magazines in sand, dirt, gravel and water and you are certain to have junk in the mag body. Shake empty mags to listen and feel for uninvited guests. What you will not hear is the rusty spring. Not all springs are stainless steel, and moisture can corrode the spring surface and cause it to drag on the body or weaken. Lint is another silent problem. Pocket carry of your extra magazine can lead to an invasion of dust bunnies. A magazine pouch will greatly reduce this issue, but regular inspection is still in order.7. Lubrication My preference is to run my magazines in a dry condition. Lube attracts debris and can gum up the interior surfaces. I use a solvent to clean the spring and magazine, inside and out, then wipe them dry. For polymer mags, I clean the exteriors with Armor All for a friction-free reload. A small amount goes a long way here.These seven tips will ensure your autoloading pistol is fully serviceable and ready to meet the needs of daily carry and home protection. Spend a few dollars so you have at least three new magazines for your pistol that are dedicated to defensive use and several more for the range.As your mags age, buy a few more. It's a small price to pay for something your life could depend on.

True Friends are like the Rock of Gibraltar
by Rob
There was a time when I had fallen into financially difficult times. I was in dire need to tide away the crisis.
More than the money I was also looking for someone to comfort me and encourage me about my future. It's during this period I got to know people and how they slowly distance themselves if not altogether avoiding you.
All except one of my friends knew my predicament even though he was far away from where I was located. More than anything else I used to get comments/statements saying how I have landed myself in this mess. Suggestions too were plenty - in terms of how I could come out of it but the "all important helping hand required was conspicuous by its absence."
My friend implicitly understood that I needed support when my so called friends were finding reason of how they wanted to help but could not do so. He too was in the process of building his career and was limited in terms of resources to help me out with.
However my friend went ahead and shared whatever little salary he was earning. He constantly called me up and boosted my morale and told me not to worry. Something more importantly and unique was that he did not even ask when I would be paying back or if I could be able to pay back at-all.
That kind of gesture when everybody was turning away from me helped build my confidence and finances. Today we are both financially independent and I would not hesitate to help out people whom I can, but am certainly wary of "those that I call my real friends."

Resilience and Sustainability:
- The first article in a new series in The Guardian about individuals helping to make cities more resilient: There are many lessons to be learned from Alex Wilson's farm in Vermont. Building durable, well-insulated buildings with simple, redundant systems out of easy-to-fix local, renewable materials in strong, caring communities makes sense just about anywhere. [The Guardian]
- "Dark Money Makes The Utility World Go 'Round" A so-called consumer advocacy group from with ties to the fossil fuel-loving Koch brothers recently submitted 2,500 signatures from Wisconsin ratepayers to the Wisconsin Public Service Commission asking for rate increases and a hefty tax on solar-powered consumers. [CleanTechnica]
- "Watching the Watchdogs: 10 Years of the IEA World Energy Outlook" The IEA World Energy Outlook has gradually moved from rosy to what may be called "increasingly reality-based." Nevertheless, it seems that politics continues to play a strong role in what is allowed to be published. [Resilience]
- India's Energy Minister Piyush Goyal has announced that India plans to completely stop coal imports within 2 to 3 years. India, China, and the US account for about ¾ of the world's coal consumption. China and the US are both cutting use of coal, so the Indian announcement looks bad for coal exporters. [CleanTechnica]
- Quebec is looking to update its 10-year energy plan, with a new wind energy policy being a vital part of it. Quebec's Natural Resources and Energy Minister is reopening consultations on a new ten-year energy plan. One information source is a report advocating a further push in clean energy, including wind energy. [CleanTechnica]
- The China-US climate agreement between the world's top two polluters puts pressure on India to become more energy efficient and use more renewable energy. "The international community will now expect India to make some firm commitments," said a former head of India's Environment Ministry. [Longview News-Journal]
- The Asian Development Bank and the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs today signed an agreement to fund the South Asia Sub-regional Economic Cooperation Power Expansion Project with a grant of approximately $60 million. The grant will be used to address problems in Nepal's energy sector. [Himalayan Times]
- Gaelectric launched its £58 million Dunbeg Wind Farm in Northern Ireland. The 42-MW wind farm comprises 14 Enercon wind turbines, with the capacity to generate up to 3 MW. It will generate sufficient renewable power to meet the electricity demand of nearly 24,000 homes on an annual basis. [PennEnergy]
- World's first renewable energy plant to combine geothermal and biomass is underway after Enel announced the biomass unit has begun construction adjacent to existing Cornia 2 geothermal plant in Tuscany. The biomass unit will be fed with locally sourced forest biomass to fuel a 5-MW boiler. [CSP World]
- Republicans in the US approved legislation, 252-161, for the ninth time to authorize construction of the Keystone XL oil pipeline. The Senate is expected to vote Tuesday on the bill. If it overcomes a 60-vote threshold it will head to President Barack Obama's desk where he will either sign it into law or veto it. [Great Falls Tribune]
- The much-maligned Department of Energy loan guarantee program that funded solar manufacturer Solyndra and electric vehicle maker Fisker Automotive is now making money for U.S. taxpayers. Further losses are not expected, and interest on the loans will ultimately net up to $6 billion for taxpayers. [Utility Dive]
- Google, Yahoo and Microsoft are part of a growing number of tech and other major companies that are entering into long-term "power purchase" agreements (PPAs) with wind farms to ensure a steady stream of power, at a fixed cost, over a period as long as several decades. [Independent Online]
- In great news for the US wind industry, the latest data shows it leads the world on wind energy production. Even though China has a third more wind turbines installed, US wind farms are pumping out 20% more electricity, accounting for over 5% of US electricity this year for the first time. [SustainableBusiness.com]
- Facebook has a new data center in Iowa that is 100% powered by renewables. Rights have gone to Berkshire Hathaway's MidAmerican Energy to own and operate it. Over 140 MW of renewable energy is added to the grid, which is more than enough to power the new Facebook Data Center. [InvestCorrectly]
- The Electric Reliability Council of Texas says that wind-powered generation recently set another record. The record was set at 10:39 a.m. on Nov. 2, when instantaneous output reached 10,301 MW, providing 33.4% of the power within ERCOT. The old record, set on March 26, totaled 10,296 MW.

Creamy Potato Marble Salad
One of the recipes I made during the Holiday, particularly the last New Year celebration was this - Creamy Potato Marble Salad.
I considered Potato Marble because other than the fact that it is something round (a New Year thing), it is also found to be very nutritious. For diet conscious like me (at times), this can be one of the best alternatives for rice. A marble or two at a time can already fill a craving stomach.
To make it a complete meal, I added some ham strips and mushrooms to it. That is optional of course. You may add up anything you wish to it such as bacon, salami, sausage slices or even chicken meat - depending on your preference. After all it's a DIY recipe.
To prepare, simply mix all the ingredients together: skinned potato marbles, mayonnaise, cream, salt and pepper to taste, ham strips and sliced mushrooms. Mix well and then garnish with very thinly sliced spring onions and grated carrots on top. Serve and enjoy!
I'm sure you will find this recipe easy to do... as easy as looking for good guitars @guitarcenter.

I truly find hope and peace in gardening. Watching my plants grow, blossom and even yield a small harvest is beautiful. While we lost our initial herbs in a bad storm that turned over our greenhouse and threw our plants all around, we've replaced them. Our plants are THRIVING! I'm going to let the pictures speak for themselves on this one. I hope you're all enjoying this season as much as we are.

Hello and welcome to another… MONDAY. Here's hoping it's welcoming to you all. I do know of a way to make it a little more interesting…
The K'lee and Dale's Cosmic Photo Challenge!
better, right?
This week I had the duty of bringing you the weekly challenge, which I offered up this past Friday. The new prompt was labeled:
Show Us Your Winter's Light
Now I gave this one lots of thought and, as I have in the past, I had several single images I initially thought were perfect for the challenge… until I stopped thinking they were perfect for the challenge.
Starting over from scratch, I decided to compose and create yet another slideshow of images (three because I like the number) I felt showed off Winter's Light in ways that reinforced the notions of both winter and light in my creative mind.
So, without further ado, here's the slideshow I created for today's challenge:
One of several statues of a Californian Missionary situated near the Academy of Science in Golden Gate Park. Stormy and slightly color saturated waves and rocks at San Francisco's Ocean Beach, and lastly a stark black and white dawn show of the iconic Cliff House, also located at San Francisco's Ocean Beach.
You know it's not hard joining in on these challenges. Here's what you'd need to do:
Create your post as you normally would. Try giving it a title similar to what you see above or on my buddy Dale's site today pertaining to the challenge. Create a 'pingback' by copying the URL of your challenge post and pasting it into the comment sectio of either this post or Dale's Monday post. Lastly, add our tag #CosPhoChal to your list of tags and your set!
Have a great Monday and a great week!

Three key takes from head coach Hue Jackson after his Browns fell 24-9 to Pittsburgh Sunday
Three key takes from head coach Hue Jackson after his Browns fell 24-9 to Pittsburgh on Sunday
1, In a situation where teams almost always go for the field goal, with one play left in a half, the Steelers went for a touchdown. They finally got the TD after the half was extended by two plays because of defensive penalties.
Jackson: "They probably felt good about where they were defensively with our offense. I think they felt like they were going to find a way to get the ball in. That is the aggressive nature of their coach."
2, Some of the hits by Pittsburgh's defense could have been construed as cheap shots.
Jackson: "There were some hits out there. I don't think they were borderline. They called the ones that they called. Some guys launched and they called personal fouls because that is what they are. We all know what we are doing and what we signed up for. It is football and you are going to get some of those hits."
3, The Browns fell to 0-11 with five games left to avoid being the second team in NFL history to go 0-16.
Jackson: "I am going to keep changing hats, psychology hats, whatever hat I have to wear with this group. As I told them, we are going to do this the right way. We are going to finish it the right way. We are going to play better."
— Steve Doerschuk

Update to original article:
Please note, this article refers to Windows Desktop Search version 3. If you wish to remove version 4, or you are unsure which one you have, please read this newer article first.
Many thanks to those that have offered valuable feedback on the subject of Microsoft's bizarre decision to force their Windows Desktop Search program onto unsuspecting users across the world. Whilst it appears possible to just disable this application, many want to remove it, and that is where the "fun" starts. Different computers seem to require different removal methods. So I've tried to bring them all together here as a handy removal summary.
- Start by running up Add & Remove Programs from the control panel and look for Windows Desktop Search in the list. If lucky, it'll be there and you can just remove it.
- If that fails, look for MSN Search Toolbar in the Add & Remove Programs list. If there, uninstalling this ought to uninstall Windows Desktop Search too. Be warned though,it obviously uninstalls the MSN Search Toolbar too. If you use this, you'll have to re-install it afterwards. I assume you can re-install the MSN Search Toolbar without ending up with Windows Desktop Search back on your machine, but I haven't checked this.
- If neither of the above work, the next option is to try a manual delete. Start up a command window and try running
This should start up the hidden Windows Desktop Search uninstaller and allow you to manually remove it.
- If that fails, then we get into the more risky solutions. If you have a second PC, you could try installing Windows Desktop Search on there and hoep you get a $NtUninstallKB917013$ folder on that machine. If you do, you can then zip it up and copy it to your first machine and then run it there to remove the application.
- I am a little reluctant to even suggest this last option as it is so risky. If you do not have a second PC, the $NtUninstallKB917013$ folder doesn't exist on your machine and you really cannot live with just disabling the product, then your last option is to download the required files from the internet. My advice is do not do this. You are risking inviting the less desirable sections of humanity to trick you into downloading crap onto your machine. If you really want to though, check out this MSDN forum on this topic for a possible download file. If you go for this option and your machine ends up trashed, remember you were warned…

Nansen Dialogue Center Skopje (Macedonia) is a local non-governmental and non-profit organization, established the year 2000 supported by the Nansen Academy from Lillehammer, Norway. NDC Skopje is part of the Nansen Dialogue Network that consists of Nansen Dialogue Centers in the Western Balkans and the Nansen Academy in Norway. Nansen Dialogue Network is a member of the European Peace building Liaison Office.
The organizations vision is of a democratic society in which dialogue is the everyday tool for conflict resolution between individuals, groups or communities. A society in which peace, multiethnic cohesion, integration, equality and tolerance are the core values.
NDC mission is to support actively and effectively intercultural and interethnic dialogue processes at local, national and regional level with the aim of contributing to conflict prevention, reconciliation and peace building through various program activities, in particular within the educational area.
Main donor of NDC Skopje is the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom Norway. Click here to visit the website
Upon the establishment of the Nansen Dialogue Center Skopje in the year 2000, the focus of the organization was mainly put on students, young politicians, and representatives of non-governmental organizations and primary schools students in Macedonia. The goal of the activities was to introduce the participants with skills for non-violent communication, leading a dialogue, conflict analysis and enable them to make a difference between dialogue and a debate.
In 2001, the activities were extended on a regional level by organizing several seminars and forums with young leaders and politicians from Serbia, Kosovo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro and Croatia. NDC Skopje program activities have also included several journalists from Macedonia as well.
After the end of the conflict in Macedonia and signing the Framework Peace Agreement in August 2001, NDC Skopje has focused its activities towards promoting the Framework Peace Agreement and has continued to work with young people from the areas mostly affected by the conflict. In cooperation with OSCE, several dialogue sessions were organized with young people from Tetovo. Also, tribunes with young politicians were intensified, both on local and regional level.
In 2003 and 2004, the focus of the program activities was put on strengthening the capacities of the political parties i.e. the youth branches of the political parties. Four "Schools for young politicians" were created where 85 young politicians took part. Each school lasted 25 days. University professors from Macedonia and abroad, as well as part of the leaders of the political parties in Macedonia, took the role of lecturers in those schools.
In 2005, after adopting the Law on territorial division of the local self-governments, NDC Skopje has started the implementation of the program "Dialogue and reconciliation" in 2005 in Municipality of Jegunovce, which is located in the Northwestern part of Macedonia. NDC Skopje has chosen the Municipality of Jegunovce, because it was mostly affected by the armed conflict in 2001. As a direct consequence of the conflict, ethnically based segregation of the primary schools started in this Municipality in 2002.
Through dialogue seminars and trainings on communication, cooperation, tolerance, team work and peaceful conflict resolution, conditions have been created for opening of six cabinets where students in mixed ethnic composition attended bilingual courses in IT, English, Macedonian and Albanian language. Each year, the courses have been attended by approximately 200 students. The program was implemented through the year 2008 when the conditions were created for opening the first integrated primary school "Fridtjof Nansen" in the village Preljubishte, Municipality of Jegunovce. In 2010, the first integrated secondary school "Mosha Pijade" was officially open in village Preljubishte. Based on the previous success, the project was expanded in several other multi-ethnic municipalities in Macedonia and continues to be recognized as one of the best examples for integrated education models within the country.

With all due respect to President Roosevelt, "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself," is a bunch of motivational bullshit. Being afraid of the "nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance" isn't the worst thing ever. I mean, let's be honest, there's never an actual rock bottom. Things can always get worse when I fail.
Failure is one of the most overwhelming fears, no matter the situation. The dread of having my hopes dashed at the very same time I confirm that there's yet another thing I'm horrible at is enough to scare me into inaction. This is why I can't bring myself to start writing a novel.
No matter how many intricate universes I have banging around in my skull, I'm too afraid to commit them to paper. I love these worlds so much, what if everyone else thinks they're garbage? I will have wasted an embarrassing amount of time on something unworthy. Why in the hell did I think I could be a writer anyway?
I have had a number of acquaintances over the years who tell anyone willing to listen that they are authors (in spite of not being published.) Their confidence is intimidating. There's no way I could be one if I've never been sure about anything I've created. Even when I've written professionally, I still feel like a fake. I know everyone will find out what a phony I am sooner or later.
But these universes that I have created have taken on a life of their own. Some of them are so real, I can see them in my head as well as any place I've ever been. I woke up at 4 AM yesterday with a scene from one playing out in my mind. I liked it so much, I couldn't fall back asleep until 6. I wanted to write it down.
I tried to write it. I opened up a blank page and started typing. And everything sounded stupid and childish and wrong. For me, the opening paragraph has to be perfect if I'm writing something I care about. I will stare at that obnoxious blinking cursor on the screen for an hour straight because I can't seem to think of a decent first sentence. It's the foundation that rest of work will be based upon. How can I proceed with anything less than perfect?
I decided to look for inspiration from published authors. Cheery little encouragements like "just keep writing!!!" and "A real writer can't stop writing!" make me want to vomit. I need something a little more realistic. I need to hear someone has been in the same position I have, that same fear of failure, and still managed to accomplish great things.
I found these. Maybe they'll help ease the fear, if only for as long as it takes to get past writing the first paragraph.

March Madness for Voom
There will be a channel boom for Voom in March.
Cablevision Systems Corp.'s Rainbow Media Enterprises subsidiary said its HD direct-broadcast satellite service will expand to more than 70 HD channels in March from its current total of 39.
Voom will use 16 transponders on SES Americom Inc.'s "AMC-6" satellite, which Voom refers to as "Rainbow 2."
Programming transmitted by both "Rainbow 1" and Rainbow 2 will use a new encoding system from Harmonic Inc., initially configured to run in MPEG-2 (Moving Picture Expert Group) and software-upgradeable to MPEG-4, Voom said.
Rainbow also announced in a Federal Communications Commission filing that it recently completed a contract with Lockheed Martin Commercial Space Systems under which the aerospace company will construct five Ka-band satellites for Voom.
"The increase in Voom's HDTV channels from 39 to more than 70 will allow us to continue to provide more high-definition video services than any other cable or satellite provider," Rainbow Media Enterprises CEO Tom Dolan said in a prepared statement. "Our plan is to simultaneously add nearly 200 standard-definition channels."
Dolan added, "All Voom customers have been provided with set-top boxes capable of receiving the MPEG-4 signal, and we remain committed to offering more than 400 full continental U.S. channels before the end of 2005."

XML gateways at a crossroads?
Are changes coming to specialized XML gateways/accelerators? It appears so. Is everyone onboard with the idea? No. Some viewers say the gateway will place its best traits – security and data transformation – in jeopardy, if it dilutes its "core competencies" and begins to take on the traits of a general purpose system.
But IBM has added data caching to its Data Power engine. Intel expanded features too. In the latter case, cloud computing is a big driver. And workflow orchestration is the added feature.
That's what Todd Cramer, director of product marketing for Intel's SOA products group told us in conversation last year. Cramer said:
"We see an evolution for XML gateways. They first processed XML at wire speed, then [they began] to validate for security. We think in the new environment of the cloud, what you need is an added workflow on top of it. We added a workflow engine. Cloud is the real thing that is changing the game. Now, a service may be scaled off site to public or private cloud."
It is not BPEL-style workflow orchestration that Cramer is discussing – rather, it is machine-to-machine orchestration. It is fair to say the XML accelerator has recently become a more interesting piece of SOA infrastructure. The gateway itself stands at a crossroads.

Hearing on US net neutrality repeal to go ahead despite government shutdown
A US federal appeals court has ruled not to delay oral arguments set for 1 February on the Trump administration's decision to repeal the 2015 net neutrality rules governing internet providers, reports Reuters. "The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) had asked the court to delay the arguments over its December 2017 repeal, citing the partial government shutdown. Without comment, the court denied the request." A group of 22 state attorneys general and the District of Columbia have asked the court to reinstate the Obama-era internet rules and block the FCC's effort to pre-empt states from imposing their own rules guaranteeing an open internet. "Several internet companies are also part of the legal challenge, including Mozilla, Vimeo and Etsy , as well as numerous media and technology advocacy groups and major cities, including New York and San Francisco… The net neutrality repeal was a win for providers like Comcast, AT&T and Verizon, but was opposed by internet companies like Facebook, Amazon and Alphabet. Major providers have not made any changes in how Americans access the internet since the repeal." In October, California agreed not to enforce its own state net neutrality law until the appeals court's decision on the 2017 repeal and any potential review by the US Supreme Court. Read more

Learn from this FREE webinar
taught by
Meggin McIntosh, PhD
The PhD of Productivity®
If you have files, notebooks, papers, boxes, envelopes, albums, and other "stuff" all over your office or home and you are tired of wishing you had a good filing system, it is time to download and learn with this free webinar about using Paper Tiger Software.
I am able to use Paper Tiger in a most efficient way. I've been able to clear out lots of old files and implement the PT system allowing me to consolidate a lot of information into fewer file folders.
~Karen Martin
You will be taken to my secure shopping cart. Your registration will be acknowledged immediately by email and you will receive the links to the recording and handouts for this engaging and informative presentation.
Meggin is clear and effective. I especially like the pictures of her own office and files to show how she uses the materials.
~Joanne Walen, AZ
Everywhere I go, people ask me, "How am I supposed to keep up with the massive quantity of paper and other 'stuff' that comes across my desk or just appears in my office?"
I always tell them: Use Paper Tiger!
I have used this software for over 13 years and it helps me file and find all kinds of things - paper and beyond.**
The simplicity of the program is exactly what I am looking for. The cost is reasonable and the fact that I can use it for home and office is an added bonus. I have already recommended Paper tiger. I think people will be pleasantly surprised at the ease of setting up Paper Tiger. I know I was!
~Colin Usher
Registration includes:
- Download of the class to watch and listen to anytime at your leisure again and again to reinforce your learning.
- An extensive packet of handouts to download and review while you are learning.
- And more, of course!
Meggin creates a picture in your mind and enables you to see the possibilities. Meggin makes trying something new fun not scary!
~Janet Hay
Do these filing issues sound like you (or someone you know)?
- Your filing system is a mess.
- You can't find something you know you filed.
- You've simply abandoned certain file cabinets because they are jammed full and you refuse to deal with them.
- No one else can file for you (or find anything that has been previously filed).
- You have notebooks on shelves (LOTS of notebooks) and you are not positive what is in many of them (and couldn't find it even if you knew).
- You have a storage unit or closet with a great deal of stuff in it, but it's not exactly easy to retrieve…
Paper Tiger Software (which you can check out using the link below) has both a "cloud-based" and a "desktop" version. They function the same, it's just that the access varies.
**This is my affiliate link, which means that Paper Tiger will send me money if you sign up through me. I give all the affiliate income I receive from the handful of products I recommend to Kiva.org or DonorsChoose.org. You pay exactly the same if you use an affiliate link as if you don't, and I love being able to give away more money. 🙂 Just wanted to let you know.
As always, Meggin is approachable, easy to follow, and very personable. Did I say she's motivating and helps people just feel good afterwards?
~Catheryn Ryu, MI
About Your Presenter:
Meggin McIntosh, PhD, known as "The PhD of Productivity®" is a former teacher, university professor, and director of her university's Excellence in Teaching Program. She is currently (and happily) the president of Emphasis on Excellence, Inc. and says,
When I was the Director of the Excellence in Teaching Program at the University of Nevada, Reno, our office manager, Karen, was out on emergency medical leave for 3 months. The office came to a screeching halt, at least as far as filing or retrieving files went. It was not a pretty sight. Karen had a system that worked for her…but the rest of us didn't know that system. You may be part of a "system" like that, too.
When she got back, I said, "Find something that works for filing because we can't have this situation ever again." I said it nicely, of course. 🙂 She did the research and found Paper Tiger Software. I figured, what the heck? We ordered the free trial, and never went back to our old system. In short order, we redid our office filing system and then I bought another copy and redid my home office, too. After over 13 years, I am still happily amazed at how quickly I can file & find things.
I would recommend this class. I think it's important to be organized, but I still don't know why I am not as organized as I would like to be. I mean I have some suspicions… but this webinar definitely gave me answers and then led me to the questions. I like information that allows me to be human, but a more organized one. Also, I like that you acknowledge that people do things differently. It's good to know that you can do a little of something each day and that it still matters and is still progress.
~Shawn Pennell, NV

|As usual, you can click on the map to make it larger.
The "S" Stock is the newest train type in London, and its purpose is to give a unified fleet for all of the "subsurface lines." The H&C, as well as the Circle, District, and Metropolitan Lines are classified as subsurface, meaning their tunnels are wider and shallower than tube lines (whose tunnels are bored into the ground and very narrow). This means that the trains are mercifully wider than on standard tube lines.
Anyway, "S" Stock trains feature air conditioning, better accessibility, and improved customer information. Interestingly, you can also walk through the whole train, and on the inside, it's practically just one long car. That's pretty much it for the Hammersmith and City. I didn't really take it for a long enough distance to judge it properly, so all I can say to the H&C is: sorry.

What is a Space Yardie? "A Jamaican gangster in a space ship," would be the obvious answer. But up till now there hasn't been any Jamaican gangsters in the space race. The Space Yardie, in fact, is the ultra ego created by the Rapper, Sifu Chan.
It all happened one night in the Beat Assassins studio. Sifu was actually there to rap on a grime track. Jimmy Mofo (Beat Assassins) was out getting the drinks in when Sifu happened to click on an old beat lying around on Jimmy's hard drive. On returning Jimmy found Sifu Chan at the mic chatting about, "a Space Yardie, a party and the North West streets."
Beat Assassins not content on just creating a deep quirky jungle roller to host the ranting's of the Space Yardie they decided to recreate him in video format. The Space Yardie can be found on youtube wandering the streets of London accompanied by Parkour free runners escaping the mundane grind of everyday life.
So all well and good. A jungle roller alongside an exceptionally cool video depicting a Space Yardie. But what about the drum n bass headz? Beat Assassins needed a 4am Space Yardie demolition zone.
After a chance meeting on twitter, Jimmy instantly knew 1000DaysWasted was the man for the remix. 1000DW takes the original bassline and immediately garnishes with a heavy dose of dirt. Furious breaks smash twitted synths & gritty stabs as a slightly vocoded Space Yardie intermediately raps within the spectacular carnage.
The Space Yardie is now ready to play on the big-rigs!
The post Beat Assassins – Space Yardie appeared first on Drum and Bass HQ.com.

Welcome to Eagles Tae Kwon Do Training Center. Please take off your shoes. We are dedicated and our passion is second to none. We hold firm to our slogan, "Soaring Above the Rest". Witness for yourself!
Dedicated to enhancing our students
Learning a martial art can be the memorizing of moves, but at Eagles Tae Kwon Do Training Center we focus on teaching our students much more. Martial arts is, in some respects, a way of life. We do not mean that certain individuals earn a living from teaching. Martial arts is a way of life because it practices mindfulness. When you practice a strike, a throw, or an exercise, the goal is to understand your body and be one with the movement. Eventually the goal is to, in time, be completely present in the moment and learn how to bring out that amount of centeredness when you need it. All the stresses in your life become much more manageable when you know how to find your center and understand that you have the mental tools you need to overcome the problem or any obstacles to come.
Martial arts instruction in Flushing
Our instructors are expertly trained martial artists and experienced teachers. No matter what level a person has achieved, there is always more knowledge to gain and ways to refine one's techniques. That is why our instructors continue to educate themselves in their martial art traditions. They understand that being able to impart knowledge is not a simple process. It requires keen observations about individuals and how they receive information, so you can make slight changes quickly to facilitate learning.
We are very proud of the courses we offer the people of Flushing and the tristate area. We welcome you to try one to see why Eagles Tae Kwon Do Training Center is the right choice for martial arts practitioners. Become Eagles' family!

I first came across brooch bouquets when planning my wedding which after nearly two years of meticulous planning finally happened in January of this year.
As with most things, it was the wife-to-be's fault that I had to wait that long! It was the first Saturday the venue had free for 18 months and that meant a winter wedding. I can still remember standing in the venue for the first time. Whilst my long-suffering partner quietly but assertively booked the first available slot a mere 543 days into the future I did what any girl in my position would do. I had a meltdown.
As we got in the car I still couldn't get over all the black dots mocking us on the wedding 'calendar' so helpfully provided by the venue, small evil dots signifying some other lucky couple had got in before us. I mean, was a January wedding really a good idea? What if it snowed? (It did in fact snow the day after). My other half's answer, accompanied by a cheeky smile was simply 'I just picked our wedding anniversary!' So January it was.
As I was soon to discover, with a long run up to a wedding there can be a few issues. At one point I had more wedding magazines than the local shop and I couldn't stop buying things 'in case I could use it for the wedding'!
One thing I came across was brooch bouquets. I loved the idea of having something that would last after the day. Also it was a reason to buy sparkly things and a chance to say 'It's for the wedding I need it' every time we went shopping. So I started the project. The result, I must say was not too bad! Along with brooches I collected over the months I used broken jewellery of my Grandma's. It made me feel like she was there on the day with me.
So when I did my first vintage fair and I took my bouquet, people liked it. I got quite a bit of interest and started making more. Word travelled and shortly after I was asked whether I would like to have a stall at a vintage wedding fair. So within two weeks I had made seven more (not ideal but a challenge!) and I was pleased with the results.
Who knows where it will go but I love the idea of being able to create something beautiful for other brides on their special day, something just for them that they can keep long after the cake has been eaten and the wedding guests have all gone home. X

Kingdom Bound Talent Search Results Revealed
Published: 2005-06-13

Print this article
Appertain Display won the Canadian portion of the Kingdom Bound talent search on June 11th at Canada Christian College. The group which hails from London, Ontario went up against four other bands who had previously won their respective regional talent searches.
The band fronted by brothers Nathan (guitar and vocals) and Matthew Piche (violin and vocals) won the right to perform at Darien Lake New York's Kingdom Bound festival on July 31st. The group also won a Taylor guitar with an estimated value of $2,500. Appertain Display also features Dave DeSmit on drums, bassists Alex Fleck and saxophone player Jeff House.
On June 17th Appertain Display will be holding an official CD release party in London to launch their debut album. The band features a very competent mix of contemporary middle of the road music. They are comprised of a bassist, lead guitar, violin, drummer and saxophone player.
The onstage presence on Appertain Display can best be categorized as stiff and smug. Even during the winning announcement it was difficult to detect whether or not they were excited or were aloof to the proceedings.
Black Talon finished as a surprising first runner-up. Finishing second was surprising only because of the tough competition they were facing. Black Talon's concerts usually feature a lot of special effects but the rules for this competition dictated those types of effects could not be used. Frontman Travis Alix proved adaptable to the situation and endeared his hip hop / urban approach to a crowd much older than he is accustomed to performing before. The two time Shai Award winning band has served notice that their future is bright.
Kelly Draper a music teacher from Welland, Ontario finished third in the competition. This was her first gig outside her own church and handled the pressure well. Draper had perhaps the best overall voice of the performers and this reviewer had her pegged to finish in third.
It was surprising that Joel Geleynse's band dropped out of the top three after winning the tough Toronto area competition. Geleynse however had arrived just before the competition started after performing earlier in the day at Canada's Wonderland. His finishing out of the top three can also be seen as a compliment to just how far the Canadian Christian music scene has advanced in recent years. Although this competition focused on talent from Ontario, most areas of the country are now producing quality Christian artists.
Resolute a young band from Sudbury also finished out of the top three. The band's youth and inexperience probably hindered them from garnering enough votes in terms of their stage presence. Those attributes can be taught however and musically they are good but need to diversify their song selection.
It is unfortunate that the event was marred by sound system problems. The problems did not give a decided advantage to any of the bands but did hinder all performers in terms of truly displaying their abilities. For instance throughout most of Appertain Display's performance one could not hear the saxophone player. Feedback was a continual problem and generally speaking the sound was not mixed well.

A Batch-Style Statistics Generator for Wind Turbine Data
by Marshall Buhl
supported by Greg Hayman
National Wind Technology Center
GenStats is a fairly simple utility that generates statistics for one or more files. Although they may be of different lengths, all files read during a single run of GenStats must be the same format. If all you want to generate is statistics, GenStats is easier to use than Crunch. Also, Crunch requires that all files have the same length.
GenStats was written to process wind-turbine test or simulation data, but it may be useful for most any kind of tabular data.
You may download the following files from our server:
This is a list of changes made to the code. Look at this text file to see if we've made worthwhile changes since you received your previous version of GenStats.
This is the GenStats User's Guide. Please refer to it when trying to understand how the program works.
This is a self-extracting archive of GenStats. It contains the GenStats executable file, sample input files, installation-verification test procedure, change log, and user's guide. It runs on all 32-bit Windows® platforms. We created the executable file with Intel Visual Fortran® v10.1.

Teaching is hard work. Over the past week we have been going over the rules and expectations for all of our classes. Each grade level has art once a week. Wednesday was the last day of our five day rotation.
Today we started new lessons with each grade level. I taught my own lessons for 4th and 5th graders.
The fourth graders are learning about cave paintings in Lascaux, France. These paintings are over 17,000 years old and showed detailed images of animals. The students learned how they made paint back then and even how the cave painters signed their artwork (handprints).
The fifth graders are learning about Native American Indians and the symbolism of totem poles. Each student is to think about their personality and match it with an animal. For example, if you are brave you would be an eagle, shy a deer, friendly a dog, intelligent an elephant, etc. The students explained their animal choices in a written assignment, sketched out their ideas, and began working on their animal. A main goal in this lesson is practicing symmetry. The students are only allowed to use construction paper to make their animal.
Today was also 9/11 and our school acknowledged this day by walking to the center of town (a few blocks away) to a memorial monument and singing a few songs.
I forgot to post some photos of the classroom at the 4th & 5th school.
So for the remainder of the week and most of next week I will be handling the 4th & 5th grade lessons and assisting my cooperating teacher with her lessons for K-3. Soon I will add on a K-3 lesson of my own.
Tonight is Back to School Night-- off to meet the parents!

Terms of the deal weren't disclosed, although Starbucks said that its purchase won't impact earnings. However, as was pointed out yesterday on our Starbucks discussion board, Ethos' do-good philosophy (it contributes a portion of proceeds to clean water efforts in developing countries) hardly seems an accident. Starbucks has always marketed itself heavily on social responsibility -- despite the fact that one socially responsible mutual fund recently demoted Starbucks from its list over an alcoholic beverage.
It's not clear just how much buying the bottled watered company will do for Starbucks' bottom line -- although it certainly supports Starbucks' mission and branding. However, Starbucks does sell $25 million worth of bottled water annually, which isn't exactly chump change, so it's good to have Ethos in the fold. (No more Crystal Geyser, for those of you who have ever picked up that brand of water at your neighborhood Starbucks.)
Starbucks shareholders -- or those who are watching Starbucks -- surely haven't missed a certain degree of malaise surrounding the stock in recent times. Its difficult comparisons to last year's same-store sales have led to a few reports that have caused some to wonder if Starbucks' growth is stunted -- and others, like myself, to think there's no reason to sweat the short term when the company is still within its 3% to 7% goal for monthly same-store sales increases. In the duration, though, Starbucks' share price is approaching levels that some have called downright attractive.
If Starbucks is taking the lemons and making some kind of iced tea lemonade concoction, it seems a perfectly good time to do so. It's still got plenty of plans -- like its musical endeavors, decadent desserts, and hot breakfasts.
For a solid company like Starbucks, recent machinations in stock price likely shouldn't give long-term investors too much cause for concern, although sometimes the hardest thing for an investor to do is to ignore negative sentiment. In the meantime, it's obvious Starbucks is just going to keep ticking along.
What do you think of Starbucks' current stock price? Are Starbucks' days of heated growth behind it? Take a break and talk to other Fools on our Starbucks discussion board.

Detroit Red Wings (46-27-15) at Tampa Bay Lightning (53-27-8)
|Date & Time

The Lightning look to complete the come back and take the deciding game seven show down at home against the Red Wings on Wednesday night.
The Detroit Red Wings have held the series lead on three separate occasions so far as the teams have alternated wins and losses but now it comes down to a do or die for both sides and the Wings have an uphill battle to climb as the series shifts back to Tampa Bay. The Wings have already won two games in Tampa in this series so it wouldn't come as a huge surprise if they did it again but to do it three times in a four game stretch is very tough to do and if Detroit is going to find a way to win here they'll need another stellar effort out of Petr Mrazek. The Wings have the playoff experience but it is Tampa who was the better team during the regular season and despite the record in this series so far the Bolts were actually a very good home team this season while the Wings struggled a bit on the road.
The Lightning haven't been at their best across the first six games of their series with the Detroit Red Wings as they have seen their offense dry up some nights and Steven Stamkos has yet to score a goal but that could all be forgotten thanks to the play of Tyler Johnson. The Lightning forward has had three two-goal games in this series and has certainly picked up the slack offensively and he will be a key part once again as they move into game seven on Wednesday night. This series as mentioned has been a see-saw battle as the team's have alternated wins and if that trend is to continue it'll be the Wings moving on and the Lightning going home but if the odds makers have their say it is Tampa going through and Detroit packing it in. While the Wings have more experience, the Lightning have home ice in this spot for a reason and I am going to side with them here as they get another big time win and move on to face the Canadiens.

Male enhancement and penis enlargement is big business, but even in a flooded marketplace there are some great high-quality products out there. The trick is knowing what products and companies are offering the very best in quality and results.

VigRX Plus Pills
VigRX set the standard for male enhancement pills with a 10 year track record that is unmatched in the marketplace. Many tried to copy their success and pass off knock-off products.

Not only does VigRX give you better erections and a higher sex drive, it is the only supplement that can boast zero side effects and a spotless reputation.

Choose wisely, and you will have an outstanding experience.

January 10, 2018
The Directors Guild of Canada was saddened to learn of the passing of Robert Ewan Mackenzie Barclay on Tuesday January 9, 2018. He was 87.
Bob Barclay's devotion to the Directors Guild of Canada, the institution and its members, was evident in his nearly 30 years of commitment to the Guild and in countless contributions he made in elected positions.
Anyone who knew Bob in his professional life, knew the pride he held in having been one of the 20 founding members of the DGC in 1962. In his years as President (1978 – 81), Bob secured our organization's first collective agreement, moved the Guild into permanent offices and was instrumental in establishing the Quebec and British Columbia District Council offices.
Bob's film career spanned 40 years with over 250 credits in a variety of capacities including director, producer, writer and editor.
His biographical pictures featured internationally renowned personalities including Walt Disney, Oscar winner Glenda Jackson, TV icon Lorne Greene as well as distinguished Canadians like Governor General George Vanier, hockey superstar Jean Beliveau, Master of the legendary Bluenose Angus Walters, Gordon Lightfoot, book publisher Mel Hurtig and Royal Winnipeg prima ballerina Evelyn Hart.
His first biographical documentary "Man of Kintail," on Canadian sculptor Robert Tait McKenzie, was citied by the University of Toronto as "the best source of history on the subject". His work has been recognized at film festivals in Los Angeles, Chicago, and Columbus, Ohio and his films have won over twenty Canadian film awards.
Even in Bob's later years, he was a reliable and ubiquitous presence at Guild meetings and events. He will never be forgotten and always missed.

Goodnight Treats
All the Feelwells dogs get a treat before they go to bed at night and we thought it would be a great idea to have a treat that would help dogs relax. We made the treats with chamomile, valerian and scullcap, ingredients renowned for their calming and relaxing properties. When we were trialling these with friends dogs we discovered that they really helped a friend's pug which had dementia and spent a large part of the night pacing also disturbing the other five pugs in the house. A few nights taking the Goodnight Treats and the whole pack was sleeping right through the night!

If you use quality as your guide there should be a Dedman (not sure which), a Battersby ("Father Muerte" is my pick), Livings' "There Was Darkness", perhaps one of mine, and an Isle (I'd choose "Stranger and Sojourner") in the short story shortlist. One or both of the Ticonderoga anthologies, ADFH 2007, and perhaps ASIM, would be on the pro production list.
But pfft! When does quality count with popular voting awards, especially the 'Ducks?
My inside tips (and I'm not necessarily inferring a lack of quality):
a) Anything with the word 'Shiny' attached to it (Sue Isle's story to win, Borderlands vs Shiny in pro production);
b) ASif vs something from Grant Watson in the fan production category.
… and FFS, people, can we get an actual shortlist this year – meaning something with five or less nominated finalists? Enough of the "nominees" lists with twelve works in some categories![EDIT: I've added a few new entries to the Best Pro Production category – namely Craig Bezant's Eclecticism zine and Jonathan Strahan's anthologies. On quality, I'd say one or more of Strahan's anthos should be contenders (if not the winner), but I hold to my earlier comments]

Is Sun in play?
Gabriel Consulting Group posted an interesting item about Sun Microsystems' future. It speculates that the beleaguered tech giant may be taken private.
Southeastern Asset Management, and its more famous subsidiary Longleaf Partners, has become Sun's largest shareholders, with a 14% stake.
Statements from current and former Sun CEOs Jonathan Schwartz and Scott McNealy indicate that they don't think Wall Street "gets" Sun so they might be amenable to a take out. On the other hand, an investor buddy scoffs at the notion that Southeastern would be party to this. Asked why it has taken a big stake in Sun, he said Southeastern "owns 14% of a lot of things."
Sun stock is trading just north of $10.00 a share after a reverse split last year. No wonder there's speculation. Or wishful thinking?
Several Sun partners talking about the company's big channel change last week said Sun, in its push to be hip and take advantage of its Java cred, seems to have forgotten it is a hardware company. The switch to the Java ticker symbol still gets their goat.
For all of the Java stuff, and now the open source stuff, Sun remains, at its roots, a maker of powerful hardware. That is something VARs can sell and hopefully make margin. Sun-exclusive server partners applauded last week's news about it opening up all but its largest national accounts to partner fulfillment, others threw up some red flags.
This move opens Sun up to significant risks, said one observer. Many Sun partners are not exclusive. They offer HP or IBM or even Dell hardware. Once those VARs are brought into potential Sun accounts, what's to say they won't entertain bids for other brands? Of course, the way things have been going for Sun, most of those accounts probably already run HP, IBM or even Dell hardware already.
