Screw you NC government.
I have been selling fishing rods on the Outer Banks since 1978. I know many of the people in this video and last year I told some of them your only hope is to get your National Congress critters, Reps., Senators and go to town.
You have to first realize you are not fighting bird loving environmentalists but environmental Marxists as I like to call them. they are the first line of assault for the Marxist movement. They are well funded and know exactly what they are doing since they do it all over the country. Love of animals has nothing to do with their quest. It's all divide and conquer.It's now being spread by the regime.
This is how they slowly but surely conquer area after area,a little bit at time terrorist style.
If you fight them they will fold and go somewhere else and try the same crap all over.
We have been dealing with them down here in the Keys for almost 30 years. Incremental ism is their game. A little bit at a time. They never stop but then neither do we. We are fortunate we have Ileana ros Lehtinen on our side, you need help from Washington and after Nov. it should be there.
Don't give up they can be beaten back,they are nothing more than Marxists extremists trying to co-op your land. Don't let them do it.
A well done piece. Thanks for posting it.
I'm in NC and have heard who upset fishermen are about this, and homeowners north of Corolla are very concerned since driving on the beach is the only access to their properties.
But, I was out on Hatteras Island just three weeks ago, and all the vehicular acces points were open, vehicleson the beach from Oregon Inlet all the way down to Cape Hatteras.
Same crap has been going on on LI for years.
It's my understanding that whenever a new nest is discovered by the Park Nazis they close down an area. It's all BS but the locals have not yet raised enough hell to get the enviros/the judge who ordered this crap, straightened out.
It's the same ol' Marxist crap, divide and conquer. Introduce chaos, doubt,uncertainty etc. Sound familiar? It's the same thing the regime is doing with the economy and the same reason businesses don't want to expand!! They don't know what the regime will do next. Same methodology being used here. The area might be closed on the whim of some bureaucrat. Who wants to vacation on that type of scenario.
So. the local businesses are in a heap of sh_t.
They need to start rattling some cages in dc.
A well placed group of support of businesses in the area that goes to dc after Nov. can get this situation stopped quickly,IMHO.
Shoot, Shovel, Shut UP. Problem solved.....red
Calling all troops and major ping lists.
Check this one out,we all need to work on this!!It's how Marxists take over the country, incrementally.
This isn't a NC Gov. problem, it's a Federal problem. If it's any consolation, Earl wiped the Plover nests for this year.
I'm out of it now, rodguy. I left NY 8 yrs ago and moved inland. I've been a fisherman all my life (see my FReeper name) I'm also a birder. I once went on a plover count with "members" of the Audubon Society in Gateway National Seashore at Ft. Tilden back in the early 90's. The idiot they had me teamed up with spent the entire day scoping out the nude beach with his binocs and drinking wine with another pair of "members" who were supposed to be out by Breezy Pt. At the end of the day we returned to the office at the Jamaica Bay bird sanctuary where these jerks submitted totally made-up counts. I raised holy hell over these ficticious counts but was ignored since I was not a member of the society.
Here's another recent plover incident from LI
Its all BS an why GW really should have revisited the endangered species act to put some sanity back into it.Too bead it didn't happen.
It's my understanding that these birds used to nest on the other side of the road(the sound side) and now for some reason are on the Beach side instead of the Sound side. How would you like your future and the future of your kids tied to where a group of birds decide to fly next!!
Your federal govt. at work. If people of the Outer Banks don't fight back they will get rolled again an again. Its the Marxist way.
Good one!!
The plovers are just a cover. The simple fact is they, Sierra Club, Audubon Society, Nature Conservancy, etc, want to ban ALL vehicular access to beaches just as has been done with wilderness areas inland.
Thanks Lucy. Our country has gone crazy and we HAVE to fix it. Can they arrest whole cities if they revolt against these stupid rules? I think before long we are gonna find out!
"The eggs are well camouflaged and blend extremely well with their surroundings. Both sexes incubate the eggs which hatch within 30 days, and both sexes feed the young until they can fly, about 30 days after hatching."
This quote comes from here
How does that match up with the BS story that Papa spewed in the LI incident.
The beach closings are only during the Piping Plover's nesting season - which just happens to coincide with the height of summer tourist season. If an environmentalist (aka. whacko) or ranger even sees a PP on an area of beach, they can (and do) close that section and usually the nearby vehicle ramps.
Summer tourists and fall fishermen have been co-existing with the PP quite nicely for years. Now all of a sudden it is a life or death issue? The PP has (and uses) 50+ miles of undeveloped national seashore immediately north of the Hatteras and Buxton areas. Yet a mile or two near the point and the few beach access ramps are somehow judged critical to the PP's survival.
I think not. I am 100% sure this is a concerted effort by the environmentalists to trash the tourism and fishing industries on the islands.
Hey, can I get a refund? I didn't catch anything worth keeping! (just kidding)
You got that right. When I was there you could get a boat for a half-day in-shore flat rate (as many people as you want within legal limits), with tackle and bait provided, for $300-$400... and there were several boats ready to go (un-chartered) at any given time. That's insane. That would barely cover fuel and wear/tear on the gear. Obviously these guys are just trying to keep themselves in the game long enough for some kind of recovery.
The big beach houses are hurting too. Those places aren't cheap - to buy, insure, nor rent. Yet when I was there occupancy on the street was probably running about 40%. We did our best to support the local bait shops (fed a lot of fish), and the local liquor stores. ;-) It was a good vacation.
If I were a local out there, next spring I would be driving up and down that beach every day blowing my horn. Seriously. There's 50+ miles of undeveloped national seashore north of them. I would strongly discourage any PP from hanging around or {diety}-forbid nesting on the prime beaches.
You can add Toyota to that list. They provided $20 million to the Audubon Society to make the federal lawsuits happen that closed the beaches. I will never buy a Toyota, nor even consider one. Ever.
Stunning. The we-know-better-than-you lib
overlords and control freaks ...damn them.
Part 1
Part 2
Rod .. needs to be sent to Beck, Rush, Hannity, Levin, etc.
They're forcing people to spend money to fight them .. until the sheer overwhelming power of the fed govt finally wears them down and bankrupts them to submission .. sickening. This crew could even turn these areas over to some int'l court, they're so twisted .. for the birds!!
Something has to end this madness, dear Lord.
Can we shoot them if we use 'environemntally friendly bullets? ... I was thinking along the lines of very hard, shaped rubber bullets.
Only as long as no-one sees you. Seriously though, the options seem to be: encourage the birds to use all the undeveloped national seashore north of Buxton; hope the {expletive} birds recover enough to get off the list so the enviro-whackos don't have a case anymore; or hope the birds go extinct quickly - before the tourism and fishing businesses on the Outer Banks do.
Time for action!
This government overreach has gone on too long already.
Birds here, smelt in Fresno, that shut-off WATER to farm land, and the list goes on.
It used to be that the federal oligarchs would do endless studies before actually acting on a request. Now, with the environazis hands in the democrat party's pants, there is not one shred of evidence for why these birds are in short supply (could be a virus for all the bastards at EPA know) yet the humans are atacked on the birds' account because the democrats can throw their putrifacted weight around. ... It reminds me of the list of closed Chrysler dealerships being mostly contributors to the Pubbies, yet the pubbies have let the criminal democrats slide right by with their evil fascist behavior. We're gonna need more bullets, friends.
I know .. so many blatant power grabbing.
Something's GOT to give.
Let there never be a doubt; these people in power have no use for us.
lost my job in june. looking, haven't found anythin yet.
It's just like the Everglades National Park with new five year plans that slowly stop you from going here and there under some new law, rule, kill access here or there under the guise of protecting the critters.
The same case can be made for the Keys National Marine Sanctuary with its no catch/no take zones for fishermen while divers are OK. Or,restricted zones,research zones it's all the same BS/demchat for get the hell out its going to be ours sooner or later.
The hunta slowly but surely closes off more and more zones every five years and claims its in our own best interest while Marxism marches on.
It's all a huge land grab and the regime wants us to pay for keeping our kids,heirs,friends and others off long time recreational land. It's just another Marxist/terrorist style event.
Park Rangers are so stupid instead of putting the new nests in a box and taking them across the street on the sound side where they would be safe, they leave them there to be run over or killed.Its the environmental way....
Marxism in the regime marches on.
Yeah, the regime is issuing double your money back on all purchases of anything. Of course you have to sign all your property and voting rights away first.
They are wonderful places to visit,fish in, dive in even live as some of us do.
It;s just a dam shame that we have become targets of the far left environmental Marxists and they won't stop coming at us until we make it very uncomfortable for them.
Down here it's the crocodiles, snail darters and wood rats. They have spent millions to protect them while our road system struggles with inadequacy year after year. Our population in Monroe county actually declined from 80k to 73 k over the past ten years since no one but a few can afford to live here.
I have know some of those people on the Outer Banks since 1978 and they are some of the greatest people you will ever meet anywhere. They are not inclined to go after others legally or otherwise who are coming in to change their way of life but that all needs to change.
They need to get the attention of their political reps and go from there. The Liddy Doles and Burrus types need to get an earful of what the far left is attempting to do and then stop them once and for all.
Exactly onyx its all the same approach to destroying the country in the name of far left politics.
Don't you mean Kay Hagan? Liddy Dole is no longer in the Senate.
sorry must have goggled the wrong site thanks for that.
The leftist enviro nazis and the Obama Administration are doing this kind of stuff all over the US. From turning the water off to California farms, 'regulating' dust on farms(essentially killing American farming), stealing private property and the list goes on and on.
Thanks for the ping. How can we stop this madness?
Early one morning we had a very wet snowfall. The snow was sticking to everything. Knowing of a copse of holly trees in the Jamaica Bay bird sanctuary, I thought I could get some great close-up pictures of holly leaves and berries with snow on them. When I got to the parking lot there were cones blocking it off, but there were tire tracks going into the lot. I parked outside the cones and walk up the the visitor's center. Inside were a group of 20-30 people decked out in their best LL Bean accouterments. I also noticed open wine bottles, wine glasses and goatskins being passed around (about 8 AM). I was informed that the sanctuary was closed due to the shut down. When I asked what they were doing there I was told it was for the Winter Bird Count (Audubon Soc. sponsored). Now I know this area very well, so I went and parked in another public lot and took a little used path into the sanctuary. After walking about a half hour during which the snowfall stopped, I spent about four hrs. taking photos. I then decided to approach the visitor's center unseen. This was about 1 PM. The sounds of music and voices were coming from the building and the cars in the parking lot were still covered in fresh snow as were the tracks they made on entering. There were NO footprints leaving the building except the ones to the parking lot. These "nature lovers" had NEVER LEFT THE BUILDING!!!!
This incident and the one I posted up-thread should be remembered whenever some gov't. bureaucrat cites the numbers of birds in a given area.....THE STATISTICS ARE A FRAUD!!!!!
Had no idea this was occurring on the Outer Banks. The documentary is very well done. Thanks for posting this.
Be careful out there. A drunken Audubon authoritarian may decide to run you down with their Prius or Volt.
Thanks goes to Rod .. ;)
Just a shocking govt overreach.
Anything like this going on in the
Tampa/Clearwater area ?

cute, but...
"The color (gray) and button-over top make these very unique and a great standout. The material is pretty cheap looking. It's very shiny and you can tell it's cheap material. It looks much cheaper than the picture online. They were not super expensive so I am keeping them, they just weren't quite as good of a find as I was hoping when I bought them."

"A very cute boot on the exterior, but the material was very stiff and the inside of the shoe felt chunky when I put my foot in, as though I was going to get blisters in the first hour of wearing them. It may have just been the shape of my foot, but this isn't a shoe I would recommend."

"i really like these boots, but I have to return them for a larger size, not a wide fit as they say."

"I am very disappointed in these shoes and I ended up returning them. Though they are very cute they were super uncomfortable and painful to wear. I bought these shoes in a wide width and a size larger then I usually wear and they are extremely tight, especially in the heal area. Would only recommend if you have very skinny feet."

HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. -- The New York Jets and first-round draft pick Darrelle Revis were closing in on a deal Tuesday night, ending the touted cornerback's lengthy training camp holdout.
"We've made major, substantial progress," Revis' agent, Neil Schwartz, told The Associated Press. "We're working on it right now."
Schwartz and Revis were at the Jets' headquarters at Hofstra University discussing a deal with general manager Mike Tannenbaum. Schwartz was uncertain if an agreement would be struck sometime Tuesday night or early Wednesday.
"That, I don't know," Schwartz said. "I don't want to put the cart before the horse, but we're working. We're making progress."
A joint statement released by the team, Tannenbaum, Schwartz and his partner, Jonathan Feinsod, said that talks were moving along.
"We are working hard to reach an agreement and we will continue working as long as it takes to get the deal done," the statement said. "We are planning on meeting through the night and our intent is to meet until an agreement has been reached."
Revis, taken 14th overall after New York traded up to select him, became the Jets' first unsigned pick at the start of training camp since linebacker James Farrior in 1997. He has missed 21 practices and the team's preseason opener last Friday against Atlanta since camp opened on July 27.
The holdup in the negotiations reportedly stemmed from the length of the contract. The Jets are looking to sign Revis to a six-year deal, while the cornerback wants a five-year contract.
Once he signs, the Jets expect Revis to compete for the starting job at right cornerback, a position Justin Miller, David Barrett, Hank Poteat and Drew Coleman all took turns at last season. He could also serve as the team's punt returner.
Revis was considered one of the best overall cornerbacks in the draft, and had an outstanding college career at the University of Pittsburgh, finishing with 129 tackles and eight interceptions.
If he signs soon, the only first-round holdout would be top overall pick JaMarcus Russell, the LSU quarterback selected by Oakland.

Research Performance Progress Report (RPPR)
Helpful Hints
Need help with the new RPPR format? Then check out our guide:
NIH Public Access Policy
NIH will delay processing of non-competing continuation if publications arising from the award are not in compliance with the NIH Public Access Policy.
What is it?
This is a federal-wide uniform progress report format for use by all federal agencies that provide sponsored funding. It will end up replacing other interim performance progress report formats currently used. The RPPR has been mandated by the federal Office of Management and Budget and coordinated by the National Science Foundation.
NIH Webcast on RPPR NSF Webcast on RPPR
When do I need to use the RPPR instead of the progress report format I am used to?
Each federal agency has a different implementation timeline. These timelines are available on the RPPR site hosted by NSF.
What kind of information does the RPPR collect?
The RPPR asks for data and compliance information that you may not have needed to provide previously at the interim report stage. The draft format provides the questions and fields required for the RPPR.
This includes:
- Basic institutional and project identifying data
- Accomplishments from past activity period and goals for the upcoming activity period
- Outcomes or "products" from the activity such as technologies and publications
- Participants, including all persons that have contributed significantly to the activity, the role, their activity and their funding support. This section also asks about collaborators, including foreign collaborators
- Impact of the project and major contributions: e.g. to the discipline, human resources (e.g. teaching, training), public knowledge, social conditions
- Changes to the project: delay in plans, changes in approach, compliance (animal use, human subject involvement, biohazards), project expenditures
I have an NIH grant that is not SNAP eligible. Will I now be required to use the RPPR format?
Most likely. All SNAP eligible, Fellowships, as well as 5 additional non-SNAP eligible NIH award mechanisms (CTSA, UL1, KL2 and TL1) must use the RPPR format as of October 17, 2014. More information is available in NIH NOT-OD-14-092.
When I begin my progress report in eRA Commons, what should I do?
When clicking on the "eSNAP" tab in eRA Commons, the PI will have two choices: to click on the RPPR link or the eSNAP link. Once the RPPR link is chosen, the PI is taken into the fields to complete the RPPR and route to the Signing Official (OSP).
What does OSP do to submit the NIH RPPR report?
The process within SAGE has not changed. As with current NIH progress reports, OSP requires that an eGC1 be prepared and routed to OSP with the budget period information included and a copy of the progress report attached. As with the current eRA Commons system, OSP will receive notification that the RPPR has been routed to the Signing Official and be able to view the RPPR in eRA Commons in order to submit on behalf of the University of Washington.
What if I start the eSNAP format in eRA Commons for my SNAP eligible award?
For SNAP eligible awards and Fellowships, use of the RPPR format is mandatory. If a progress report has already been initiated as an eSNAP, the only way to change the progress report format is with the assistance of the eRA Help Desk at Commons Support (1-866-504-9552 or email@example.com).
What is NSF's timeline for adopting the RPPR?
NSF is implementing a new reporting service on Research.gov that adopts the RPPR format. This will replace NSF's annual, final and interim project reporting on Fastlane. As of February 1st, 2013, progress reports will not be submitted via Fastlane. Instead, reports will be prepared and submitted via Research.gov. NSF intends to have Research.gov reporting capabilities available as of March 18th.
NSF has extended the overdue date:
- By 45 days for reports due between January 31st and March 31st
- By 30 days for reports due between April 1st and April 30th
Please check the NSF webinar posted above or your NSF program officer for more information.
I have feedback to convey on the RPPR format/system. Where do I send this feedback?
Please direct your feedback to Carol Rhodes , Associate Director, OSP, or Kristina Hyman , Program Operations Specialist, Learning and Business Support Team, OSP. This information is shared with our research community on a regular basis and within the Helpful Hints posted above.

Residents of downtown San Diego are elated as the first natural foods grocery store opened October 16th in the Horton Plaza Mall. Located on the second floor near anchor store Nordstrom, Jimbo's Naturally hopes to provide downtown residents and visitors with a one-of-a-kind grocery store experience. Not only does the natural foods grocer offer fresh, organic products from deli and bakery treats to health and beauty aids, Jimbo's was constructed under the US Green Building Council's Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design program.
The 28,000 square foot store will employ approximately 100 people and has a "cartveyor" system which will help shoppers travel from level 2 of the mall to level 4, where Jimbo's has reserved parking spaces. So if you're staying near Horton Plaza in downtown San Diego, we definitely recommend going to check out Jimbo's. How many people can say they visited a green grocery store in the middle of a shopping mall?
The eco-friendly trend is spreading like wildfire throughout San Diego. The San Diego International Airport is undergoing a billion dollar project to enhance user experience as well as sustainability, and the San Diego Convention Center has recently approved plans to expand, also in line with strict environmental standards.
Want to go green while you're vacationing in San Diego? There are plenty of environmentally friendly things to do near the San Diego Harbor during your visit such as bike ride or you can go for a hike through Torrey Pines State Park.

Central whipped Oshkosh West, 63-39, on Friday to open the season and then came out flat and lost, 40-36, to Waukesha West on Saturday.
"We've been talking a lot about energy and enthusiasm and those type of things," a disappointed Central coach Dan Wandrey said Saturday afternoon. "We didn't have that. I don't know if 'flat' is the right word. It was an ugly first half, but we were able to scrap through it.
"They missed a lot of shots and some of it was our defense. But we just didn't stop them from doing what they wanted to do. As a coach I'm expected to (come up with a way) to stop them, but they didn't. That was tough."
Second-half struggles
Central led 16-15 at intermission, as both teams couldn't find the basket. But in the third quarter, only the Lancers continued to struggle, as West's Lizzy Connors scored 10 of her team's 12 points while Central's offense consisted of point guard Mary DeChant's 3-pointer.
Jasmine Lewis and Lydia Rodhe scored six and five points, respectively, as a 17-13 fourth quarter kept the score respectable.
Connors finished with 15 points and Dani Rohdes had 12, while Lewis (11) and Rohde (10) led Central.
"Not having Lydia on the floor (foul trouble) for a while there hurts us," Wandrey said. "She never got into a rhythm.
"I give them credit, but you don't have to be a rocket scientist to figure out who they were going to go to (Connors). They were able to do that and we weren't able.
"We tried to do something, but just couldn't execute it. With all the kids we play, they are returning players, and that's not acceptable."
Whipped up against Oshkosh
The Lancers were a different team in the opener, a 24-point win over the Wildcats. Sarah Fotsch, who struggled on Saturday, led the Lancers with 16 points, while Lewis and Rohde had 11 each.
Central led 29-17 at intermission and then rolled to a 20-7 third quarter behind eight points apiece from Fotsch and DeChant.
Wandrey was especially pleased with DeChant's play.
"Mary was great. She's so fast, putting pressure on the defense, trying to get the ball away. She's great in transition and she got to the rim a few times. She made a couple of 3s and she ran things well."
He was also pleased with his team's energy, something that was lacking on Saturday.
"I was very pleased. I didn't know what to expect," he said. "We played with a high level of intensity and energy. I thought we shared the ball incredibly well.
"The kids keep talking about how much they like each other and how they get along and I joke with them that doesn't put 10 points on the board. The way they played Friday, it was a by-product of that chemistry."

Had one of these for 6 months now and would like to share my experience.
Chose this one based on several reviews. Wife and I like the round style better than the square. Friends all say it looks techy. We very much like it and the coffee it brews. Very fast brewer indeed. A few things we don't like...
1.The pour spout. There is none. No matter how hard I try I can't pour without a drip.
2. The power cord. Big as a table saw cord and stiff as a broomhandle. No cord storage.
3. A dummy like me can put the coffee on to brew with the thermal lid in the carafe instead of the brew-through lid. A whole pot of coffee makes quite a mess when it runs all over the counter. And hot too! I have only done this 4 times and although stupid and my own fault IMO the designers overlooked this area. Shouldn't be able to fit under the brew station with the wrong lid! Thinking about gluing a knob on top so it won't fit.
4. Thermal lid is two piece and takes on water. I found this out because i was looking for a way to dummy-proof #3. The lid snaps apart and has a piece of foam glued inside to kind of insulate it. Don't submerge the lid when you wash it. It is not sealed and will take on water. Kind of a crummy lid for such an expensive pot.
That said I would buy one again. Anyway get one. I think you will like it.

Fans camp out for tckets at Appalachian Fair
GRAY, Tenn. - Tents are pitched and chairs are out in front of the Appalachian Fair ticket booth.
Fans are camping out days in advance to get the first reserved seating tickets to the fair's nightly concerts in Gray, Tennessee.
There are still two days to go until tickets go on sale Saturday at 9:00 a.m.
The Appalachian Fair lineup this year includes popular country band Florida Georgia Line.
This is Amanda Mullin's seventh year camping out for tickets. She arrived at 4:00 a.m. Thursday morning and tells us, "We packed sleeping bags, pillows, blankets, clothes, and food. We went grocery shopping. It's something we do every year. We meet new people every year and we see the same people year after year. We've made a lot of good friends here so we look forward to it."
You don't have to reserve tickets to see the concerts. An $8 general admission ticket to the fair will get you a first-come first-serve seat to that night's concert.
This year's lineup also includes Easton Corbin, Dustin Lynch, Jeremy Camp, Gretchen Wilson, and Dailey and Vincent.

Switch to a different Office 365 for business plan
Tip: For Office 365 Home, Personal, and University, see Switch to a different Office 365 for home subscription.
If your business needs change, or if there are Office 365 features you want to take advantage of that aren't available in your current plan, you might be able to switch some or all of your users from your current plan to a different plan.
What's supported:
Switching between most Office 365 for business plans.
Tip: These are the plans listed in tables 2-4 of the Business plans you can switch to in Office 365 article.
Switching from Office 365 Small Business, Small Business Premium, or Midsize Business to a different Office 365 for business plan. This is done through the renewal process, not through the steps in this article. To learn more, see Renew Office 365 small and midsized business subscriptions.
Switching between Office 365 Education plans.
Switching from Office 365 for home subscriptions, such as Office 365 Home, Personal, or University to an Office 365 for business subscription. To upgrade an Office 365 for home subscription to an Office 365 for business subscription, see Upgrade Office 365 for home to a business subscription.
If you want to switch between Office 365 for home subscriptions, see Switch to a different Office 365 for home plan.
What's not supported:
Switching between Office 365 Small Business, Small Business Premium, or Midsize Business plans.
Switching from an Office 365 for business subscription to an Office 365 for home subscription, such as Office 365 Home, Personal, or University.
Note: The Office 365 Enterprise E4 plan is being retired. To learn about your options for switching or upgrading from E4 to another plan, see Important information for Office 365 Enterprise E4 customers.
Choose how to switch plans
The easiest way to switch plans is to use the switch plans wizard that's built into the Office 365 admin center. However, using the switch plans wizard isn't supported in all situations. In which case you might be able to switch plans manually. This article helps you chose the right path for your situation.
What is the switch plans wizard?
The switch plans wizard is built into the Office 365 admin center of all Office 365 for business and enterprise subscriptions, as well as Office 365 Small Business, Small Business Premium, and Midsize Business subscriptions. The switch plans wizard does the following:
Leads you through the process of buying a plan that you can switch your current plan to.
Reassigns all user licenses from the plan you're switching from to the plan you're switching to.
Cancels your old plan.
What does it mean to switch plans manually?
Switching plans manually means that you're completing the following separate procedures instead of using the switch plans wizard. The procedures are:
Buy licenses for the subscription you're switching users to.
Verify the subscription is ready to switch users to.
Reassign user licenses
Remove unneeded licenses from the subscription you're switching from.
Cancel the original subscription (if switching all users).
Switching only some users isn't supported by the switch plans wizard
The switch plans wizard supports switching all users from one subscription to another. It doesn't support switching only some of the users. If you want to switch only some of your users to a different subscription, you might be able to switch them manually. We'll discuss this more, later in this article.
Verify whether the switch plans wizard can be used to switch your subscription
Sign in to Office 365 with your work or school account as a global admin. Learn how to sign in.
Select the app launcher icon in the upper-left and choose Admin.
In the admin center, choose Billing > Subscriptions.
On the Subscriptions page, select the plan you want to switch from.
The following screenshots show how a subscription looks when the switch plans wizard is available and when it isn't available.
Not available
Notes: If you don't see the Switch plans button, your plan can't be switched using the Switch plans wizard. In this case, see Switch Office 365 for business plans manually.
Here are some examples of when the Switch plans button won't be available:
The subscription was purchased on a volume license agreement.
You have a government, education, or non-profit plan.
If you see the No switch plans message, you can position your mouse over the info icon and a message describing the reason that the wizard is not available is displayed.
There are several reasons why the switch plans wizard might be unavailable. Most of them are due to temporary issues or issues that you can resolve. See the Why can't I switch plans? article for more information.
Verify whether you can use the switch plans wizard to switch to the plan you want
If the switch plans wizard is available, the next step is to determine if you can switch your current plan to the one that you want. The switch plans wizard limits the plans that you can switch to, based on the services in your current plan. The wizard will only switch to a plan that has the same data-related services, such as Exchange Online or SharePoint Online, or to a higher version of them. This ensures that users don't lose data related to those services during the switch.
The switch plans wizard also restricts the plans you can switch between to ensure that you don't switch to a plan with a lesser service, which would cause a loss of functionality. For example, the switch plans wizard won't switch from Office 365 Enterprise E4 (which has Skype for Business Online Plan 3) to Office 365 Enterprise E3 (which has Skype for Business Online Plan 2).
The Business plans you can switch to in Office 365 article lists the subscriptions you can switch between using the switch plans wizard as well as the subscriptions you can switch to manually.
Which path should I take?
The following table shows the recommended way to switch users to a different plan.

It appears that Lee has gotten a healthy dose of cool and we have to admit it's totally working for them. Staying true to its workwear roots (i.e. an amazing denim jumpsuit), the brand has successfully managed to bring its image into modern day while keeping its heritage very much alive. From a variety of jeans (obviously) and cool denim separates like denim jackets and denim workshirts both the women's and men's collections has a bit everything for the modern, dare we say, hipster. Definitely cool!

Prayer request and thanksgiving,
February 19, 2012
Please pray for my 16 year old sister, Mykayla. She was practicing for an upcoming flat track race on her dirt bike yesterday afternoon along with other riders and on a sharp turn the back end of her dirt bike came out from under her and she then took a really bad fall. Then the rider right behind her didn't have time to react and ran over her in the mid-section which broke her pelvis and back in two places. She is going into surgery in the morning to have a screw put in to help heal it. Please pray that God will give her courage and trust in Him. Also, I would like to thank everyone who prayed for my 6 year old little brother, Justin, who was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes a few months ago. He is doing very well.

A trough extends across northern Australia producing showers and storms over the Kimberley region of WA, northeastern parts of the NT and northern QLD. Some mid level cloud produced by these storms sweeps across Queensland. Low level moisture trapped under a ridge of high pressure that extends over southern parts of the country is responsible for the low level cloud that blankets the Great Australian Bight and coastal regions of southern WA, SA and western VIC.

When the Messiah was asked what would be the signs of his coming and of the end of this age, He said, "As it was in the days of Noah…so shall it be." The main event that occurred in the days of Noah was the descent to Earth of the Nephilim. These were evil fallen angels who were responsible for the violence, bloodshed, and chaos which resulted in a worldwide flood. After the Apocalypse begins, these same fallen angels, plus Lucifer and all those who rebelled with him, will once again manifest on Earth in plain sight. They will be led by a man most call the Antichrist. But in Revelation he is named as The Beast from the Abyss.
This book is an in-depth study of the Beast's past, present, and future, which debunks most of the common and accepted assumptions of the Antichrist and instead presents a scriptually based study of he who is to come: The Beast who ascends out of the Abyss having seven heads and ten horns.
WARNING: This book is not fiction.

"Finally Understand The Book Of Revelations"
Listening to this book is like listening to your favorite song. Every single time a better understanding of the words and deeper feelings comes with it. It clarifies so much that when you read The Book Of Revelations you don't get intimidated and scared not knowing what is going on.
How much detailed information that is in this book is amazing. He goes over everything so well, that you feel like a real buff about The Book Of Revelations and how it pertains to our lives today.
Hearing Patrick Heron's thoughts through out the book was one of my favorite parts. There is something about hearing the author's thoughts on everything that gives you a deeper connection and understand to the book, as if you where to just read it.
The Great Foretold History
I was at a complete loss with,The Book Of Revelations before listening to this book. I Never fully understood it no matter how many times I read it. I always knew that The New World Order had to do with The Book Of Revelations but I didn't quite know what to look for, or how. I've done plenty of research but have always come up just short every time. It wasn't until I came across this book that I finally grasped an understand of both. The most amazing thing about this book is also one of the simplest. Everything is backed up by scripture and not just opinion after opinion. This is the real deal, a true meat and potato's book on The Book Of Revelations, the Antichrist, and the New World Order. This book was a blessing in my life. This is one that everyone needs to listen to or read.
A book everyone needs to listen to - at LEAST once. I listened to many chapters several times, and plan on listening again in its entirety!
Love having someone read me a story. Fires in the hearth, rain on the roof, sunny days and surf. Good friends, good food and J S Bach.
"This is excellent"
While at times this sounds like a sermon and the story is indicating that the future is already 'writ' and scary, this is an excellent listen for any who have puzzled about the book of Revelations.
Patrick Heron has provided a penetrating look at the meaning of words, symbols and names. Using Old Testament references as well as New Testament, Patrick Heron introduces the Book of Enoch and gives a coherent interpretation of Revelations.
As the Reader I found the Author very easy to listen to and understand.
For me it raises the issue of 'free will' while it resolves others.
"I Didn't Know Any of this Information"
This book held my interest from beginning to end. They don't teach this in Catholic schools. I wish I read this book many years ago. It's a revelation.
"Excellent Endtimes Book"
I love the way he explains everything so you can understand it.
The name of the antichrist.
No,but I will.
The meaning of the bugs and animals in the book of Revelation.
I have read the book of Revelation many times, but listening to Mr. Heron corrected me on things I had wrong.
"It is the message of a life time"
The message of Gods Word
The book of Revelation by Clarence Larkin
All of it.
An easy to hear and understand study of The book of Revelation of Jesus Christ. The author is also the narrator and at first I thought I would not like his accent and would have a hard time understanding him but as I listened he was very easy to listen to. He is not a professional reader but how he put the message into this short book makes his voice endearing. You can tell that he is truly a brother in Christ and that he truly wants to reach the listener that needs salvation through Jesus Christ. I will be sharing it with family members and friends because in a four hour time, he hits the meat of the scripture.
"Blessed Beyond Belief"
this is the second book by this author I have listened to. the narration was excellent very easy to relate to and kept my interest through the whole book I am looking forward to reading his next book hopefull of more works to follow. Thank You author.
"the return of the antichrist"
most of this book its of good discernment. .there' are few here and there ideas thet are up in the Air but its great information and encouragement for the Church !
"We are here."
listen to this book. it is truth. he interprets scripture using scripture; no conjecture and no speculation... all praise be to Jesus who is coming soon
"Truth. Scripture explained by scripture."
To the point and explained by scripture. It doesn't get any more true or real.
