Collection Protocols
Specimen collection and preservation for barcoding
Fresh and dry samples of Lepidoptera perform ideally in DNA amplification. Papered and most pinned specimens are perfectly suitable for DNA barcoding, though we encourage sampling before spreading to avoid DNA degradation caused by the relaxing process. If specimens are less than 10 years old and never were exposed to excessively wet conditions, moistures or rotting either while collecting in the field or later when relaxed, then their DNA is usually recovered with very high success. Global campaigns on large-bodied moths (e.g. saturniids or sphingids which usually need a longer relaxing time) mostly based on the use of pinned dry specimens have shown more than 80% amplification and sequencing success for specimens up to 10 years old. Amplification success then decreases rapidly with age, and we recommend not sampling specimens older than 15 years old unless they are of critical importance and hardly available in fresher condition.
We have developed a special protocol to recover DNA barcodes from decades or centuries old specimens. As it remains costly and has to be applied off the DNA barcoding core pipeline, this protocol is reserved to types or similarly unique specimens. Additional funding sources may be requested to process these ancient samples.
Generally, a single leg (or 2 for the smallest Microlepidoptera) or a leg fragment (2 to 3 mm long) only is sufficient for DNA extraction. Other body parts like antennae or wing veins/membrane are also suitable for that purpose, but legs are usually preferred because they are paired appendices and their removal does not affect the general aspect of the specimen. The posterior end of the abdomen may also be used and the genitalia can be recovered after DNA extraction. This is only applicable for small individuals since the size of the tissue fragment used for extraction should not exceed 3 or 4 mm. Because of the additional recovery step, special notice and agreement should be made if participants wish to use this method.
Whole specimens can also be sent directly for sampling. We will proceed to leg pulling and will return the voucher or, if donated, it will be integrated in the natural history collection of the Biodiversity Institute of Ontario.
Sampling of preimaginal stages
Eggs, caterpillars or pupae can be used as well for DNA barcoding as long as the specimens are preserved as vouchers (eggs will then require a tissue recovery step). The head capsule, a transversal section of a segment or a thoracic leg (or a fragment of it) can be used for DNA extraction from a caterpillar, as well as any epidermis tissue sample from a pupa. These tissues can be either collected fresh and allowed to dry rapidly, or preserved in 95% ethanol. Specimens preserved in high concentration ethanol usually remain suitable for DNA extraction for 5 to 10 years, possibly more if the storage conditions are optimal (ethanol/sample volume ratio, ethanol renewal, protection from UVs, samples frozen or refrigerated).
While specimens sampled and processed in the context of a global campaign usually come with species identification under the supervision of expert taxonomists, the continental campaigns frequently gather records for non-identified specimens within a broad range of families. If you are a taxonomist and wish to be involved and contribute to the identification of some samples on BOLD, your help is very welcome and we invite you to contact the campaign coordinator. You can have a detailed overview of the status of species identification in your group of expertise by using the
taxonomy browser
of BOLD.
Pre-lab Preparation
Tissue samples submitted to the Biodiversity Institute of Ontario core analytical facility are analyzed using standard high-throughput molecular protocols. Therefore it is critical that tissues destined for DNA barcoding analysis and associated specimen data arrive at BIO in a compliant lab-ready format. To ensure this, standard sampling kits developed at BIO are being supplied to external collaborators complete with detailed instructions for sampling and data submission. All prospective donors are encouraged to observe these sampling guidelines and resolve any questions with their project/campaign coordinator. BIO has developed several types of sample submission formats which allow direct compatibility with the high-throughput lab molecular protocols, particularly, the 96-well format of all analytical stages. The sample storage medium most advocated by the Lepidoptera campaign is the 96-well microplate. This medium is cheap and compact and allows submitting the minimum amount of tissue required for one DNA extraction (ca. 2-3 mm in dimension or 5 mg), thereby avoiding the necessity to manage residual tissue. It also allows the samples to enter directly the lab DNA extraction pipeline, bypassing the intermediate subsampling stage. To facilitate proper tracking of each sample throughout the analytical chain, it is critical that each specimen is assigned a unique individual identifier (e.g., collection catalogue number prefixed by the museum acronym), or Sample ID, which is recorded in the CCDB data record spreadsheet, providing a map of locations for each sample inside a 96-well plate. This number should exactly correspond to the Sample ID submitted to BOLD together with specimen provenance information and images, thereby linking the sequence and the specimen record. See also section on specimen numbering conventions.
Data capture
It is well-known that provenance data and biological information are an integral part of any collection voucher specimen and constitute a large portion of its research value. Therefore it is critical that any data associated with each specimen used for populating the reference library of DNA barcodes are recorded and digitized. There are several vital data fields required by BOLD (i.e., detailed locality with coordinates and elevation, collection date, name(s) of collector(s), sex and age), however, there are additional pieces of information that should be recorded as a part of best practices. These include standard measurements, weight, reproductive data, and habitat. Field collecting of insects usually also produces ancillary information on community structure, parasite infestations, habitat preferences, etc., which may pose significant synecological value. Although collecting these data falls outside the scope of DNA barcoding per se, prospective donors are encouraged to consult specialized literature on how to obtain and log this valuable information. The Lepidoptera barcoding campaign has a set of standard protocols for detailed data capture (in both digital and analog format) which can be distributed among interested participants, upon request.
It is imperative that any prospective contributor to the mammal barcoding campaign is well aware of the national, international, and institutional regulations pertaining to the collection and shipping of insect specimens and any derivative biomaterials and conducts his/her operations in a compliant manner. This particularly concerns locally or globally endangered species and those listed under the Convention of International Trade of Endangered Species (CITES). It is preferred that any institution hosting or facilitating such collecting activities has a nationally recognised collection and is registered with the national CITES authority. Regulations differ drastically from nation to nation, and it is important that they are followed by all campaign participants as they apply to their research activities. The Biodiversity Institute of Ontario is a CITES-registered institution and will gladly assist in obtaining Canadian import documentation for samples intended for processing at the core sequencing facility at Guelph, Ontario.

The Petersburg Group necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 90 diseños de 17 diseñadores freelance.
Hudson Thread
In my mid-20's, I live and work in New York and have to wear a suit and tie every day. I'm thin and on the shorter side, so I have major problems finding dress shirts that fit. In the past few years, I have had shirts custom made during my travels abroad.
My friends often remark they want tailor made shirts like me, but can't travel to the far corners of Asia. The goal is to create a website that allows young men to order custom fitted dress shirts.
Young urban professional men 18-32 that are slim and having trouble finding shirts that fit. Our market ranges from professionals in their early 30's to college students going for interviews. Our target market isn't looking for the finest fabrics, but something that fits well and makes them look and feel good.
While dress shirts are needed for work, most young guys also want to wear the same shirt on Friday night with a pair of jeans.
Hudson Thread represents a little of New York, but more the active urban professional that needs something clean and stylish for work and play.
Keeping the logo simple is key. The look of the site is modern simplicity. We want to have a very clean web 2.0 style site. The logo will be used primarily on the website and on the tag of the shirts themselves. The logo may also be embroidered on the shirt, but that is yet to be decided.
Whether the logo is color or black and white is up to you. The name can be the logo like IBM or Microsoft, or the logo can include an additional symbol like the horse in Polo Ralph Lauren. I leave this up to you, the designer.
Thanks for helping us create this new concept in men's dress shirts.

Chimney Rocks designation Friday by President Barack Obama as a national monument drew immediate ire from some Republican critics, despite their previously stated support for the designation. Chimney Rock National monument contains just less than 4,800 acres of the 1.8-million-acre San Juan National Forest.
Rep. Doc Hastings, R-Wash., chairman of the House of Representatives Natural Resources Committee, issued a news release Friday condemning the White Houses declaration, using powers in the Antiquities Act, as a face-saving action borne out of President Obamas failure to provide leadership to get the Democratic-controlled Senate to start working on solutions to protect, improve and utilize our nations abundant natural resources and public lands.
The criticism has apparently surprised most of the parties involved, including the business, community and political leaders who Friday called the national monument declaration a positive step toward improving tourism and commerce for the area, as well as a positive step toward protecting a special archeological and natural resource.
Hastings said in his statement that the House already had approved a bill to establish Chimney Rock National Monument, but blamed the Democratic-led Senate for failing to act. The chairman said the House had approved dozens of bipartisan, locally supported bills that would solve problems, protect natural areas and boost economic development that are just sitting in the Senate awaiting action.
In the statement, Hastings said that major decisions on federal lands that can seriously affect local communities and economies should be made by those most affected and their local elected leaders.
George W. Bush used the Antiquities Act within the last few weeks of his presidency to declare three national monuments.
The committee chairman also said, Such decisions should not be made by unilateral orders from the president relying on an outdated law passed over a hundred years ago that should be reformed or repealed.
However, the group Conservation Lands Foundation issued a news release Friday citing local business supporters of the declaration.
The Conservation Lands Foundation said the designation was supported by the Archuleta County Commissioners, the Durango and Pagosa Springs chambers of commerce, the pueblos that trace their ancestors to Chimney Rock and other Native American tribes and numerous elected officials at local, state and national levels, including Rep. Scott Tipton, R-Cortez, among others.
One such advocate was Mary Jo Coulehn, director of the Pagosa Springs Chamber of Commerce.
It is a shame to politicize what has been a long-term bipartisan community effort to protect an incredibly important archeological site, Coulehn said in the Conservation Lands Foundation statement
The local business community has long publicly supported designation of Chimney Rock either by Congress or the president and is grateful that this site has now received the recognition and designation it deserves, she said. It is a treasure in our community and deserves to be protected.
Sen. Michael Bennett also released a statement Friday praising the designation. That statement also recognized Tipton for introducing a bill in the House supporting monument designation for Chimney Rock. That bill passed with bipartisan support.
Bennett introduced a similar bill in the Senate, but said in the news release issued Friday that it was blocked by a minority of senators.

American and Canadian citizens must have a passport that is valid for at least 6 months beyond the intended return date in order to enter and depart the country. Tourists must also provide proof of return or onward travel. Each traveler is responsible for ensuring that his/her passport is up to date. Citizens of other nationalities should check with respective authorities before departure. Please ensure that the name on your passport matches all travel documents we have issued. If this is not the case, please contact us immediately.
Your passport must have at least two blank pages for the entry stamp; if transiting South Africa, an additional blank visa page required for each entry. This cannot include the 'endorsement' page at the back.
Please make a photocopy of your passport's identification page and keep it separate from your original. It's also a good idea to leave a digital copy with someone at home. This may speed up the replacement process should you lose your passport.
A valid visa is required for all travelers from the U.S and Canada. Visas may be purchased on arrival at the airport. Visa fees: $50 per person for single entry and $80 for double entry. Visa fees payable in cash (no credit cards). If you are going to Botswana for a day trip you must get a double entry visa for Zambia when you first arrive into the country. A Yellow fever certificate is required upon entry. These requirements change often and therefore it is best that you check with the Embassy of Zambia for the most up-to-date visa information.
Please note; if you are looking to travel in and out of the country a double entry visa will be required. Please speak with your travel representatives for more information.
The Governments of the Republics of Zambia and Zimbabwe are pleased to announce the re-launch of the Kavango Zambezi Trans-Frontier Conservation Area (KAZA) Uni-Visa on 21 December 2016.
The Uni-Visa will be issued at a standard fee of US$50. Guests must have US$50 cash available for payment in the event there are no credit card payment facilities at the port of entry.
Validity - the KAZA Uni-Visa will be valid for 30 days and act as a multiple entry visa as long as visitors remain in Zimbabwe and Zambia i.e. visitors can cross into Zimbabwe/Zambia as frequently as they like within the 30 day period.
The Uni-Visa is only available at the following ports of entry:
Harry Mwaanga Airport (Livingstone)
Victoria Falls Land Border
Kazungula Land Border (Border with Botswana)
Kenneth Kaunda Airport (Lusaka)
Victoria Falls Airport
Victoria Falls Land Border
Kazungula Land Border (Border with Botswana)
Harare Airport

Cancellation and Medical Insurance is highly recommended as it can safeguard against in-country medical emergencies, lost or delayed baggage and emergency cancelation or interruption of your trip. Please ensure your policy will provide you with upfront medical coverage so that you are not responsible for a hefty doctor's bill while away. Insurance can be purchased through us.
Currently Required Vaccinations: None.
Yellow Fever: Following the World Health Organization's confirmation that Zambia is a low risk yellow fever country the South African Department of Health has announced travelers from Zambia will no longer be required to carry a valid yellow fever certificate when entering South Africa. Yellow fever certificate is not required for transit between South Africa, Zambia, Zimbabwe or Botswana.
Malaria risks do exist though it is extremely rare. The risk is less at higher elevations or in hotter locations. Speak to your medical practitioner for more details. We always recommend that you see a doctor or health-care provider who specializes in Travel Medicine. They will best determine your vaccination and medication needs based on your health and immunization history, areas of the country you will be visiting, planned activities and up-to-the-minute requirement changes.
If there are any medical items that are essential to your health, such as prescription drugs or corrective eye wear, bring duplicates and divide them between your checked bags and hand luggage. While non-prescription drugs such as aspirin are generally available, it is difficult to replace prescription items.
Recommended Items:
The general altitude of Zambia gives it a more pleasant climate than most tropical countries. The country experiences three seasons: Cool and dry from May to August, hot and dry from September to November, and warm and wet from December to April. Temperatures will vary depending on which part of the country you are in, and the elevation in that area. The valleys can experience extremely hot temperatures, especially in October. The cool dry season can see night frosts in areas which are sheltered from the wind.
Electricity in Zambia is supplied at 230 volts and 50Hz. Zambian sockets accept plug types, C/D/G. A multi-adaptor with different plug configurations can be very useful. We advise not to bring a hair dryer as it could blow a fuse.
Phone: Roaming charges vary between carriers, but tend to be quite costly. Consult your phone provider prior to departure to discuss overseas rates and international package options, Zambia may be one of their costlier destinations. It is also possible to purchase a SIM card locally at as little as 5,000K (US$1) to avoid international charges when calling numbers within Zambia. (You should check to see that your cell phone is SIM card compatible.) Please note that coverage can be spotty in the countryside.
Internet: Is not accessible from the camp rooms, most lodges do have wireless or a shared business computer in the main area to check email. Local connections are exceptionally slow and can be costly (as much as $10 per half hour). Smartphones such as BlackBerrys and iPhones will actually download data much faster than computers. Again, roaming and data charges can be exceptionally high – so please talk to your phone provider to pre-purchase a data plan for when you are on safari.
Generally speaking we advise bringing ZMK210, 000 - 315, 000 per day for spending money per person. We recommend that you get local currency from your bank before you leave home or from a bank machine in-country which is much cheaper than an exchange service at the airport or in tourist areas. Lodges often accept USD and ZAR, so you can tip and pay for items in these currencies, credit card is often accepted as well.

I know it's early for soup, but this is wonderful. You can make it as mild or hot as you like.
Enjoy! This makes a lot, so either invite friends over or shorter the recipe.
2lbs. ground turkey or beef
1 chopped onion
Two 1/2 oz. pkgs. of Hidden Valley Ranch dry dressing
Two 1.25 oz. pkgs. of taco seasoning
16 oz. can of black beans, undrained
16 oz. can of pinto beans, undrained
16 oz. can of kidney beans, undrained
10 oz. can of Rotel tomatoes
16 oz. can of stewed tomatoes, chopped
16 oz. can of white corn, undrained
2 cups of water
Cook meat and onion together until meat is browned. Drain off grease. Stir ranch dressing and taco seasoning mix into the meat. Add remaining ingredients with juices from all. Add water. If mixture is too thick, add more water. Simmer 2 hours. A crock pot works very well with this recipe. Garnish with sour cream, cheese, sliced onion and jalapenos if desired. Serve with tortilla chips.

Warm and creamy, au gratin is perfect for a cold winter night. And what better way to say "I love you" than with a little indulgence of seafood and cream.
This dish goes together with just a little effort and you end up with an impressive and delicious dinner for two. Serve with crusty bread and a green salad dressed with a drizzle of olive oil, a squeeze of lemon juice, sea salt and ground black pepper.
Some grocers and seafood markets sell frozen lobster meat. That's the easiest way to get it for this dish. Alternatively, ask for a 1 1/4-pound lobster at the grocer and have them steam it for you while you shop. That size lobster should produce about 4 ounces of cooked meat.
Seafood au Gratin
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small sweet potato, peeled and grated (about 2 cups)
1/4 cup grated yellow onion
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
Salt and ground black pepper
3 ounces haddock or other white fish
4 ounces cooked lobster meat (about a 1 1/4-pound lobster)
4 ounces raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
4 ounces bay scallops
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 tablespoon butter, melted
Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Place 2 shallow ramekins or gratin dishes on a sheet pan and lightly coat with cooking spray.
In a small saute pan over medium, heat the olive oil. Add the grated sweet potato and onion. Cook until tender, about 7 to 8 minutes. Stir in the thyme and season with salt and black pepper. Divide the mixture between the 2 baking dishes, spreading it evenly across the bottom.
Cut up the fish and lobster into bite sized pieces. Arrange the fish, lobster, shrimp and scallops over the sweet potato mixture. Sprinkle with salt and pour the cream over the seafood.
In a small bowl, combine the panko, paprika and a pinch of salt. Pour the butter over the mixture and toss to coat. Sprinkle the panko mixture over the seafood. Bake until the cream is bubbling, about 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving. Serves 2.

Carne adovada recipe from the Rancho de Chimayo cookbook
Carne adovada is one of my favorite New Mexican dishes, and one of the best places to get it is Rancho de Chimayo Restaurante and Hacienda, a beloved, family-owned place that opened in 1965 just a short drive from Santa Fe. So you can imagine my delight when the restaurant recently published "The Rancho de Chimayo Cookbook" (Lyons Press, $24.95) with that near holy recipe. The cookbook was written by Cheryl Alters Jamison and Bill Jamison with members of the Jaramillo family.
Here's the recipe, which serves 6-8. It can be made a day ahead.
Carne Adovada
Ingredients for chile sauce and marinade
1 tablespoon canola or vegetable oil
4 garlic cloves, minced
8 ounces (about 25) whole dried New Mexican red chile pods
4 cups water
2 tablespoons diced yellow onion
1 tablespoon crushed chile pequin
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1/2 teaspoon crumbled dried Mexican oregano
3 pounds thick boneless shoulder pork chops
Warm the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and saute until just golden. Immediately remove from heat.
Break the stems off the chile pods and discard the seeds. Place the chiles in a sink or large bowl, rinse carefully and drain.
Place the damp pods in one layer on a baking sheet and toast in the oven for 5 minutes, watching carefully to avoid burning them. The chiles can have a little remaining moisture. Remove them from the oven and let cool. Break each chile into 2-3 pieces.
Puree in a blender half of the pods with 2 cups of water. You will be able to see tiny pieces of chile pulp, but they should be bound in a smooth, thick liquid. Pour into the saucepan with the garlic. Repeat with remaining pods and water.
Stir the remaining sauce ingredients (onion, chile pequin, garlic salt, oregano) into the chile sauce and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. The sauce will thicken but should remain a little soupy. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature.
Trim fat from pork and cut meat into 1- to 2-inch cubes (smaller if you plan to use it in burritos.) Stir pork into the chile sauce and refrigerate overnight.
The next day, preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Oil a large baking dish that has a cover.
Transfer the carne adovada and its sauce to the baking dish. Cover and bake until the meat is completely tender and sauce has cooked down, about 3 hours. Stir once about halfway through. If the sauce remains watery after 3 hours, stir well again and cook uncovered for about 15 minutes more.
Serve hot, garnished with chopped lettuce and tomato if desired. This dish goes beautifully with posole or ranch beans. I like to have flour tortillas on hand to mop up the chile sauce.

TextMachine (www.textmachine.mobi - under construction)
TextMachine is an SMS based communication platform that enables teams to communicate with each other via SMS. Typical users would be social or corporate groups that need an easy way to announce important news (i.e. a soccer coach to inform their players that a game cannot be played due to weather). The coach would simply send a single SMS to textmachine, which then distributes the message to all players, personalising it in the process. This is cost effective for the team (only one SMS has to be paid for at standard carrier rates) and convenient (players are greeted with their names).
TextMachine also supports the concept of "Votes", where a question can be asked to the group. The coach could ask for example "Please indicate if you are playing this Saturday by replying "YES" to this message" - the system then collects the answers of the players and sends a collective response to the coach "8 players have responded "YES" to your question, while 3 players have responded "NO".
While TextMachine can be operated by SMS only, it also offers a Web 2.0 online interface to support the convenient management of all aspects of group communications.
The target market is really defined by the needs for fast communication - sports clubs, volunteering groups, event based teams (i.e. large corporate, sporting or musical events where a group of people needs to be informed about things that are happening) but also schools and smaller business units in corporations. TextMachine can also be used as a mass marketing tool, although we are aiming more at smaller groups for our initial target market.
The logo should be fresh & simple, and incorporate speed, boldness, convenience and the overall communicative aspect of the service. If you want to associate these attributes with an animal - look for an Australian one as we are based there. You can - but are not required to - use the word 'TextMachine' in your design. TextMachine will be launched in two languages initially (english/german), so there's a global aspect to it. The final results need to be available as Vector graphics.

To those who haven't managed to visit Pike Place Market and watch the flying fish shows, you're missing out. These guys have this down to an art form. If you're ever around it's something you must go see. They have all kinds of smoked salmon to try and each was delicious. And if you absolutely CAN'T make it? You're in luck! They ship!
There were so many amazing things to see at the market, including some amazing jewelry. I wish I had gotten more photo's of the other things for everyone but I would have had to be a kung fu master to fight the crowds and still get a good shot.

Hi everyone! I was tagged by Carol for the Vlogging Tag which originally came from here. Thanks so much girl! Check out Carol's blog; it's really cool! 🙂
Oh and just letting you know I've practically dumped my blogging schedule. Just using it as a guide now. 😉
The Rules|
1.Thank the person who nominated you and leave a link to their blog.
2. Write a post (it can be about absolutely anything) and don't edit it at all, like you would if you were vlogging. No back spacing or deleting allowed. (But if you make a typo that looks like an inappropriate word then you can delete it) It does not have to include pictures, but if you do include them, no editing allowed either.
3. Nominate 5 other people and let them know you nominated them.
This seems like a really creative and fun tag! Let's dive in. 😉

PennyLane - What is it?
PennyLane (DUCk), a 1/2-watt transmitter/exciter board, is a companion to the Mercury HF direct sampling receiver board.
The Atlas (bus) compatible PennyLane transmitter uses Digital Up Conversion (DUC) techniques and processes the I and Q signals from the PC (or Sasquatch DSP board) directly without the need for a sound card.
PennyLane is an updated version of Penelope.
PennyLane - What it is not!
It does not function as a stand alone card. It requires the Atlas back-plane and the Ozy (or Magister) card connected to a PC running PowerSDR to provide a functional transmitter.
PennyLane - Features
1.8 - 55MHz frequency coverage
0.5W pep output
Low level transverter output
SSB, AM, C-AM, FM, CW, PSK etc
RF phase and magnitude outputs for future Envelope Elimination and Restoration (EER) power amplifier
Open drain FET for PTT control of external amplifiers
Seven open collector outputs for Linear, relay, etc. control
Optional on board microphone ADC or use with a Janus card
Audio output for future projects or alternative to Janus card
Frequency options:
- On board high performance 122.88 MHz crystal oscillator phase locked to on board 10MHz TCXO or external 10MHz reference e.g. Gibraltar.
- 122.88MHz output available via LVDS
- Optional external VHF clock input via LVDS
- 10MHz TCXO available via Atlas bus
Atlas bus compatible
Two available PC interfaces: Ethernet via Metis board or USB via Ozy or Magister board (no sound card required)
I and Q balanced adjustment not required due to digital generation of RF waveform
ADC for ALC or PA linearization etc.
ALC processed in the FPGA to avoid delays associated with PC processing
New features included in Pennylane that are not present in Penelope:
Improved two-stage PA for less high-frequency power rolloff
DAC level control for improved linearity at lower power output levels
Ordering Information
The price for the PennyLane is:
$ 251 US for members of TAPR
$ 399 US for non-members+ shipping/handling if applicable.

Welcome to PWInsider.com's coverage of WWE Survivor Series. We will be updating this page throughout the evening with results from the show, so check back often.
The PPV began with a video package putting over the history of the Survivor Series and highlighting some of the issues leading to matches on tonight's show.
Michael Cole & JBL welcomed us, then tossed it over to Jim Ross & Jerry Lawler, then it went to Hugo Savinovich & Carlos Cabrera. No ECW announce team. Then again, there's no matches on the show that are strictly ECW.
Each of the legends, including Arn Anderson, had a separate entrance.
Elimination Match: Ric Flair, Ron Simmons, Sgt. Slaughter & Dusty Rhodes, with Arn Anderson, vs. The Spirit Squad (Nicky, Mikey, Johnny & Kenny), with Mitch.
Simmons started out with Mikey. Mikey shoved Simmons, then went down when he tried a shoulderblock. They locked up, and Mikey grabbed a side headlock, but Simmons threw him right off and dared him to get up. Mikey poked him in the eyes and hit some forearms, but Simmons powerslammed him, then laid out the rest of the Squad as they ran in. Mitch tripped Simmons, and when Ron went out after him, Mitch backed up into Arn Anderson, who threw him into the ringpost, then into the ring. The referee claimed he counted out Simmons, even though he never actually reached ten in the ring, as far as I could see.
Ron Simmons is eliminated.
The referee ordered Mitch to leave as well, claiming he saw the trip. Simmons gave Mitch a spinebuster, then dragged Mitch to the locker room. The referee then ordered Arn Anderson out for throwing Mitch (who was not a match participant) into the ringpost. The fans chanted "bulls***". Lawler noted this is the first time a referee has seen and called everything.
Slaughter got in with Nicky and after Nicky saluted him, Slaughter gave him a series of bodyslams. Dusty tagged in and hit a bionic elbow to Nicky's outstretched arm. Rhodes elbowed the arm again, then tagged in Ric Flair, who chopped Nicky in the corner. Flair hit some more chops, then tagged in Slaughter, who hit a clothesline then put Nicky in the Cobra Clutch. Nicky was going out, when Kenny ran in to break it up. Dusty stopped him, but this distracted the referee, and Johnny superkicked Slaughter, and Nicky got the pin.
Sgt. Slaughter is eliminated.
Dusty dropped an elbow on the nearly unconscious Nicky and got a pin.
Nicky is eliminated.
Mikey worked on Dusty, then tagged in Johnny. Dusty threw some elbows, but Johnny managed to keep him in the Spirit Squad corner and tag Kenny. Dusty hit the flip, flop and fly on Kenny, but missed an elbow in the corner. Kenny rolled up Dusty and pulled his jeans for a pin.
Dusty Rhodes is eliminated.
Johnny screamed about it being 3 on 1 as he went after Flair. He tagged in Mikey, who traded shots with Flair. Flair hit a reverse atomic drop, then used the ropes for leverage for the pin.
Mikey is eliminated.
Kenny backdropped Flair and hit some elbows to the chest. Flair grabbed a small package on a backdrop attempt and got the pin.
Kenny is eliminated.
Kenny and Flair shoved each other, and Johnny shoved Flair from behind, knocking him into Kenny, and knocking Kenny out of the ring. Johnny went for a right hand, but Flair ducked it, hit a shinbuster and applied the figure four leglock for the submission at the ten minute mark.
Johnny is eliminated. Ric Flair is the sole survivor.
The other members of the Spirit Squad ran in and turned the figure four over so Flair was trapped in the move. Kenny hit a top rope legdrop to the back of Flair's head. The Spirit Squad then left, with Flair laid out in the ring.
The events leading to Chris Benoit vs. Chavo Guerrero were recapped.
U.S. Champion Chris Benoit vs. Chavo Guerrero, with Vickie Guerrero.
Benoit hit some forearms at the bell and slammed Chavo, then hit a powerdrive elbow and a side backbreaker for a one count. Benoit rammed Chavo in the buckles, then chopped his chest. Benoit delivered some knees to the gut, then headbutted Chavo to the ring apron. Chavo rolled back in and hit an uppercut, but Benoit chopped him down then hit a snap suplex for another one count. Benoit slammed Chavo for another one. Chavo hit a shot to the gut and went on offense with European uppercuts and punches, but Benoit headbutted him and chopped Chavo. Benoit hit a running forearm for another one count. Benoit hit some kneelifts, then chopped Chavo. Guerrero fired back with some forearms to the back, then stomped Benoit in the corner. Benoit grabbed Chavo's arm and took him down in a Crippler Crossface attempt, but Vickie grabbed Chavo's foot and pulled it to the ropes.
Benoit hit some knees to the head, then dropped Chavo with a back suplex. Chavo hit a knee to the gut and threw Benoit shoulder first into the ringpost, then choked him with his boot. Chavo delivered a backdrop driver for a two count, then kicked Benoit and applied a rear chinlock before switching to an overhead wristlock. Benoit lifted Chavo and hit a Samoan Drop to escape the hold, but Chavo came right back with a dropkick for a two count. Chavo kicked at Benoit's arm, then decked him with an uppercut. Chavo yelled "I told you to stay out of my business, but you don't want to" as he kicked him. Chavo missed a right hand and Benoit hit three consecutive German suplexes, then called for the top rope headbutt.
Benoit went to the ropes, but Vickie grabbed at his foot, slowing him down. Benoit went for the headbutt, but Chavo rolled out of the way. Chavo kicked at Benoit's back, then delivered a series of forearms. Chavo hit a brainbuster, then went to the top rope. Chavo hit a frog splash for a two count. There was a brief "Eddie" chant. Chavo went to pick up Benoit, but Benoit grabbed his legs and went for a Sharpshooter, but Chavo started punching Benoit in the head before he could turn it over. Vickie got on the apron, as Chavo kicked off Benoit, and Benoit fell backwards into Vickie on the apron, knocking her to the floor. Chavo rolled up Benoit for a two count, but Benoit rolled through it and got the Crippler Crossface for the tapout win that the eight minute mark.
Winner: Chris Benoit.
JBL screamed bloody murder over Benoit knocking down Vickie Guerrero, even though the replays showed he went into her back first.
Backstage, Todd Grisham interviewed Edge and Lita. Lita ripped on the fans and said she hadn't changed her mind, she was retiring tonight. Edge said Mickie James will go down faster than Donovan McNabb for the cheap heat moment. Lita left, then Edge bragged about winning his Survivor Series match later, while Cryme Tyme snuck into Lita's dressing room behind Edge's back. Edge left, and Cryme Tyme walked out with a box with a bra hanging out of it. Grisham asked what they were doing, and they told him he didn't see anything, before taking off with the box.
WWE Women's Champion Lita vs. Mickie James.
Lita was introduced as "competing in her final match". Mickie slapped Lita at the bell, then hit a drop toe hold and kicked her. Mickie hit some punches in the corner, then choked Lita on the middle rope. Mickie hit some kicks to the midsection, but Lita came back with a toss into the buckles and a one legged monkey flip. Lita kit some kicks, then threw Mickie in the corner. Mickie fought back with punches, but Lita threw her down by the hair. Mickie hit a clothesline, then went for a headscissors, but Lita threw it off and rammed Mickie head first to the mat. Lita choked Mickie against the middle rope. The fans keep yelling "Hooo!" and I don't think they are looking for a Hacksaw run-in. Lita hit some knees to the gut, but Mickie fought back, only to be given a side Russian legsweep.
Lita stomped Mickie in the groin, then headbutted her there. There was a "She's a Crack Whore" chant. Lita suplex Mickie for a two count. Lawler is unloading all of his one-liners, making fun of Lita. Lita applied a sleeper, but Mickie made the ropes. Lita went to the top rope, but Mickie dodged a flying bodypress attempt. Mickie started to climb the ropes, but Lita grabbed her and hit a back suplex. "She's got herpes" chant now. They traded punches, with Mickie getting the better of it. Mickie hit a clothesline, and a pair of back elbows, and got a two count. Mickie threw some kicks, finishing with a spin kick for a two count. Mickie grabbed a cradle suplex for a two count. Mickie set up for a DDT, but Lita shoved her off into the corner. Lita charged, and Mickie grabbed her for a headscissors, but Lita threw it off. Lita hit a moonsault for a two count. Lita went for a DDT, but Mickie grabbed the ropes and Lita fell hard to the mat. Mickie rolled up Lita for a two count. Lita grabbed a small package for a two count. Mickie floated over a slam and rolled up Lita for a two count, then Lita reversed it for a two count. Mickie then grabbed Lita in a swinging DDT for the pin at the nine minute mark.
Winner and new Women's Champion: Mickie James.
James left. Lita demanded that Lilian Garcia come into the ring and say "Let's here it for the greatest Women's Champion of all time". The fans booed. Lita freaked out, saying how disgusted she was with the fans and how disrespectful they were. Cryme Tyme's music hit, and they came out, carrying the box. Lita was still throwing a tantrum in the ring.
Cryme Tyme said they found a box of her stuff, and they were going to have a tribute sale, a "Ho-sale" if you will. They started selling her underwear to fans at ringside, for cash. Lita was freaking out on the mic, while Cryme Tyme kept selling stuff. They found a Monostat box, read the instructions, then sold it for a dollar. JBL even got in on it, saying he was the only man in the company without a pair of her panties, so he bought a pair. JBL asked for change of a hundred, and Cryme Tyme took off with the bill. Cryme Tyme took out something wrapped in a towel that was "vibrating". Lita offered to buy that back herself, but they sold it to someone in the crowd for $25. They then joked that they had something "cheap and wide", and held up the empty box, saying "It's Lita's box". Cryme Tyme left while Lita continued her tantrum in the ring.

Alexis Barbeau Designs Collection 2019
Custom fine jewelry capturing the beauty of the ocean and nature
Custom Nautical Spring Collection for 2019
Being a custom nautical jewelry designer and working with the ocean has been my joy for over 36 years. I delight in capturing the reflection of a precious diamond and placing it into a unique setting of coral inspired ring. From the careful carving of natural shapes, to the selection of brilliant sparkling stones, to the highlighting brought about with the many steps of fine polishing, I put all my effort into bringing to life the beauty which I experience when scuba diving into each custom nautical design. As an award winning fine jewelry designer and diver, my love of the adventure of jumping into magic of the tropical blue ocean inspires me with endless designs to create beautifully graceful shapes in wearable jewelry. To be underwater on a tropical reef with rainbow colored fish, delicate hard corals and long legged octopus is to enter another world.
I have incorporated wonderful sea creatures like seahorses, mermaids, and marlin along with diamonds, tourmalines, and sapphires in my custom wedding rings. I have used the textures of sea grass and coral to capture their amazing shapes and transforming them into earrings and pendants. Tahitian pearls being one of my favorite stones; reminds me of far away tropical lagoons with turtles and sea stars and the twilight reflection of a full moon rising over the water.
Along with sharing the beauty of what I experience, I intend to focus attention on the preservation of our oceans. A portion of my sales is donated to the Ocean Conservancy and Reef International to help sustain the study of scientific education and ocean conservation. My award winning designs are available through my website and at my studio in Boca Raton as well as the many juried fine art shows along the East Coast of the US.

This software is must if you dual boot between Linux and Windows laptop / desktop computer.
I've already written about Explore2fs and other programs to grant read and write access to Linux ext3 partitions / files from a Windows box. There is a new program called Linux Reader which allows safe and quick access to alternative file systems. This program plays the role of a bridge between your Windows and Ext2/Ext3 Linux file systems. This easy-to-use tool runs under Windows and allows you to browse Ext2/Ext3 Linux file systems and extract files from there. From the project home page:
First of all, DiskInternals Linux Reader is absolutely free. Secondly, the program provides for read-only access and does not allow you to make records in Ext2/Ext3 file system partitions. This guarantees that the interference in an alterative file system will not affect the work of Linux later. Apart from this, it is necessary to note, that it gives you an opportunity to use common Windows Explorer for extracting data. A preview option for pictures is one more pleasant point, which is worth mentioning.

Section 7, Education Act 1996 states, "…[E]fficient full-time education, suitable to his age, ability and aptitude and to any special education needs he may have, either by regular attendance at school or otherwise." Under the "or otherwise" phrase in the law, families can legally homeschool.
There are no requirements to inform the authorities when one is home educating, unless the student was previously enrolled in the government school system. At that time, the parent must let the school official know they are withdrawing their student to home educate him. No other requirements for home education exist.

Career Journal: The Importance of Succession Planning
Are Indian companies prepared for the departure of their leaders?
Last week, telecom company Bharti Airtel and information technology firm HCL Technologies unveiled planned replacements of their chief executives in a sign that some large Indian companies plan for leadership succession.
But recruiters and human-resources experts say this practice is far from universal in India Inc.
A 2010 report by consulting firm Bain said that more than 75% of Indian firms do not discuss CEO succession in the company. The report added that this left the firms "highly vulnerable after the retirement or death of their leaders."
Many companies start looking for a new leader only after the serving one has left, says Govind Iyer, Mumbai-based partner at executive search firm Egon Zehnder International.
This is a mistake, say experts. "Lack of leadership can derail the company," says Kalyani Shastry, associate director of executive search consultant Stanton Chase.
If the position of a CEO or a manager is left vacant for a long time, it creates uncertainty and anxiety among employees.
They don't know what to do and their productivity could suffer, says Navnit Singh, India chairman of Korn/Ferry International, an executive-level recruitment firm
Some might even consider leaving the company, says Ms. Shastry of Stanton Chase.
An extended absence at the top can also cause consumers and business partners to lose faith in the company, which could hurt its profit and growth.
HR experts say companies need to be especially prepared for sudden departures. For this, they need to have leadership training programs in place, where they identify employees who have the potential to become leaders and groom them accordingly.
At HCL Technologies, more than 1,000 positions at different levels in the organization have a named successor, says Prithvi Shergill, head of human resources. Once a new leader is appointed, whether from within the company or outside, a specially trained "transition partner" from the company might guide the leader for some time, adds Mr. Shergill.
Such leadership programs can help retain employees by motivating them to stick around in the company. Most companies, experts say, train two or three people within the company for every position of authority. Some companies even have a system of changing people in roles of leadership every few years to benefit from the ideas and skills of different leaders.
India's information-technology companies, like Infosys, Tata Consultancy Services, and Wipro, and some other large business houses like Hindustan Unilever, Jindal Steel and Power Ltd., and Mahindra and Mahindra have been proactive in setting up succession plans and leadership programs.
But companies which are primarily family-owned or where the founder is the chief executive often haven't named successors even to top jobs. One of the most prominent examples is Reliance Industries, one of India's largest companies, which hasn't publicly named a successor to billionaire chairman Mukesh Ambani. Reliance didn't respond to a call for comment.
Experts note that state-owned companies are in some cases even worse, as they don't have a transparent system of succession, and in many companies the top spot has been vacant for months.

Accommodation and facilities:
We had a pleasant holiday during 6 -12.Feb 2016 at Ao Muong Resort(101 room), the beautiful sight and kindly service give us unforgettable memory. Thanks from bottom of heart, we will happily recommend our friends to Koh Tao and stay in your resort. I would like give you some advice to help Ao Muong Resort to be more attractive: 1、 Change the electricity supply time: 12:30-14:30 (many guests need sleep at noon, and it is the hottest time in a day) ; 18:00-4:00 (4:00-6:00 no electricity is OK) No more cost, but more comfortable. 2、 Change yellow coarse sand to white fine sand: If the sand can be changed, Mango Bay will exceed Nayuan island; Since the beach is not long, the cost will be limited(perhaps 2 boat sand is enough): you can take off the surface yellow sand(60cm depth) into the sea , instead of white sand(90cm depth), and the wave will spread the white surface sand in the nearby beach. IF you dought the effect, you can try in a small scale on the west corner beach.

The beach is from its nature very nice, clear water, many fishes...! So much plastic on the beach (they only through it behind the next big stone). The view from the bungalows is wonderful. But they don t care about the hotel, the entrance is old, without any decoration (there is no atmosphere...). The staff is friendly but the food is very basic. And altogether the hotel is absolutely overpriced.

Do not hesitate to stay here if you are looking for some relaxing days away from busy areas! Booked 2 nights in advance but stayed 5 nights. Much better than NangYan Islands. Busy a few hours with charter boats and long tails but in the afternoon/evening you are alone on the beach. Perfect snorkeling with beatiful fish and corals just by the beach. Chat and rest of the staff made everything possible to make our stay comfortable and they of course suceeded. Possible to go to town twice a day with free hotel boat, perfect. No problem with electricity only 6 pm to 6 am, works just fine. Good standard for this kind of resort. Will go here again.

The hotel itself is located on a fantastic beach, a dream for snorkeling and diving. This is a place for people who are not looking for party, but for quietness and a slow lifestyle . Vey nice and friendly staff, but beds as hard as rocks. Should invest in overmatrasses. There are also no phone connection there and this should be informed on their web page. No problem at all, but better with more than less info. In all, we are very pleased with our stay.

It Is All About BTC, LTC, ETH, ZEC mining as well as other alternative crypto currencies
There is a new official release of tpruvot's ccMiner fork version 2.2.3 available (source) with new algorithms supported and additional improvements. The latest version brings support for Polytimos algorithm as well as support for the KeccakC algorithm, along with an optimized Keccak support for SM5+ GPUs, based on alexis78 improvements. The official Windows binaries for the new version are compiled for SM 3 Nvidia GPUs and CUDA 9 only (require driver version 384.xx or newer) and are available in 32-bit as well as 64-bit version.
After a quick test of the KeccakC support we can suggest that you might want to try increasing the intensity over the default value for your GPU for some improvements in terms of performance, though even then there is still a faster fork of ccMiner with KeccakC support. If you are interested in mining CreativeCoin (CREA) that uses the KeccakC algorithm with best performance you might want to check out this ccMiner fork for optimal performance.
– To download the latest ccMiner tpruvot fork v2.2.3 Windows binaries (x86/x64)…
Here is a ccMiner fork based on alexis78 code, but with added support for the KeccakC algorightm (source) used for CreativeCoin (CREA) mining. KeccakC is a slightly different variation of the Keccak algorithm, but it still requires modified miner to support it, so you still need to use a compatible miner for coins like CREA that use it. If you are looking for an sgminer with KeccakC support check this Windows binary from the official project website (source).
We have compiled a 32-bit Windows binary of the ccMiner frok from cornz with KeccakC support as it was requested by readers and you can download and try it from the link below. It is compiled with Visual Studio 2013 and CUDA 7.5, the supported Nvidia GPUs are Maxwell or Pascal-based ones (Compute 5.0 or newer). The performance we are seeing is similar to that of the original Keccak algorithm, so you can expect to see similar performance if you have mined a Keccak-based coin recently. Again, have in mind that Keccak and KeccakC although similar are not compatible with each other and you need to use the respective algorithm for the coins that use it!
