In other words, prevention is the best cure so you need to make sure that your installed security product is up to the task at all times. If you are still looking for such a software solution, you can try Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Premium.
The graphic interface is highly intuitive and you simply need to specify the type of scan you want to perform - the most accurate also requires the most time to complete, so if have time to spare, it is advisable to choose this type.
However, if you are in a hurry or you simply want to analyze certain folders, you can go for the custom scan. You can add the directories you are interested in, then specify additional details (for instance you can scan memory objects, startup and memory settings, depending on your choices).
Additionally, you can customize the app's behaviour when an infected item is detected: it can be treated as malware, it can be ignored or it can warn you about it.
Another handy function of Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Premium is that it can be scheduled to perform scans on a specified date and time, according to the frequency you set up.
For instance, you can schedule a thorough scan to be carried out once a week, while also creating daily tasks for folders where you typically download your files, so as to make sure no infected has sneaked in.
To wrap it up, Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Premium is a powerful and reliable security product that can meet the requirements of all users. Those who get impressed with its functions and feature-set can purchase a license and enjoy it past the evaluation period.
Malwarebytes Premium ReviewRead more
welcome everyone to another malar geek review today we're going to be taking a look at mallards anti-malware premium this is going to be the full review yesterday we took a look at the anti ransomware technology integrated into malwarebytes and it was a disaster most of the ransomware got through such as one across a tana other Ransom malware I did test the beta version of this product a while back and I wasn't too impressed with the performance then so I want to give you guys like a final kind of all-around look at this product and see if it's you know improved since the beta version although we know how they're anti ransomware technology works or lack thereof so in terms of the usability of the product I do like the layout of malwarebytes anti-malware premium you have your different tabs here your scan tab which you can scan the computer just a general threat scan a custom scan or a hyper scan the quarantine which is pretty obvious that's where malware is quarantined when it is detected and then you have your different tabs here from your application tab where you can turn notifications on and off your updates etc you have your protection tab here where you can turn the different modules of malwarebytes anti-malware premium on and off you can schedule scans here your exclusions I'm not going to go into the my account or About tab because I'm using my key that I no longer use for malwarebytes anti-malware so I won't be showing everybody that on camera so we're going to check for updates the updates are current for malwarebytes let's take a look at the RAM usage or its resource usage it's a little higher than it used to be but it's not bad overall I haven't really noticed a slowdown in the system so anyways so decent on RAM usage and good on usability so I have some malware links here we're going to do our typical test of 10 malware links and then we're going to see what its overall detection rate is as well as how it can deal with unknown malware so smart screen filter is off and so let's start punching these links in and see how well it does here's our first malware link okay that one was blocked by the web filter caught by their web filter that's good it's good to see let's try the next one okay this one loads up and for some reason the product the actual executable doesn't want to run from Internet Explorer I don't know why that is it's kind of weird let's execute it appears to have executed in memory let's see here yep it's right there in memory the description gives it away immediately that is malware some random description there and it's now gone so that one appears to have gotten through no alert we will proceed and we will see what happened at the end and this one loads up as well again I don't know why it doesn't want to run from the actual Internet Explorer the signature of e-catalog guide exe is corrupt or invalid okay for some reason I eat not let that one download let's try that one again I will try to save that one on the desktop yeah for some reason it's not letting it download so that's fine we'll move on oops okay here's our next malicious URL tax task manager dot exe and it's blocked by malwarebytes web signature now one is also blocked by malwarebytes by the web filter that one got caught as well here's our next malicious URL Android random numbers exe this one loads up and we will execute it okay potential threat automatically quarantined a potentially unwanted program and that one was caught by the signatures okay that one is in memory so far no alert it just launched a comm circuit so no alert we will proceed and we will find out at the end of the test that one is dead we will find out at the end of the test what happened and that one was blocked by the malwarebytes web signatures and it looks like we have some kind of adware here or something that loaded onto the machine some kind of Chinese or something kind of Chinese program or something is loaded up under the machine so let me grab a couple more links okay I grabbed a couple more links here both of these are Russian domains so let's try the first one this one we will save as an executable on the desktop and we will run it okay that one was caught as it's a Trojan that was caught by the signatures and let's try this another update exe and it's probably not another update it's probably malicious and that one was caught as well it's a some sort of adware and it was blocked by malware rights so oh this eat catalog one actually downloaded so let's try it just for fun get it run and think it ran when you try that again let's try to eat catalog that exe just for fun it ran supposedly supposed to be the tor browser but doesn't look like tor browser because it's just deleted itself and it's for wanting to run this other executable here that is probably the payload it's never a good thing when something deletes itself from your desktop that's not normal behavior at all so anyways I'm going to let this run for a minute or two and then I'll grab empro and Ximena and we'll see what kind of a infection we have going on here because I believe we do have some infection so I'll be right back okay so the second opinion scanners have finished and as I suspected we do have some malware we have a holo process which is actually running in memory right here the original executable for that ECAD alog exe is still on the desktop but it's hidden from my view but the bolt scanners caught it it added a file to apt at a local temp which is actually also running in memory and this one was also part of this a trojan added a file to app data roaming in addition to that if we go into MS config because I did do that while the scanners were running it has added itself to the startup menu the actual registry key was not detected by either scanner but it did add itself to the startup and it's actually starting this file when the computer starts up the holo process I believe was already in memory before I loaded up this Trojan holo process is used by malware too as a container type of thing to run code I believe that was already in memory so that could be another infection I didn't find any other malicious or at least the scanners didn't find any other malicious changes and so same thing that a hitman pro found although hitman pro did not find that holo process so not a great performance overall in terms of the link test I mean definitely the machine is infected I think there's more malicious things going on like this I believe was already in memory before I loaded up that catalog Trojan so I mean not a great performance overall on the link test so I'm going to grab a pack of malware I'm still downloading it so it'll be just a minute I'm going to grab a pack of malware stick it on the desktop and then we're going to we're going to see well malwarebytes overall detection rate is and how it can handle unknown malware brought but I don't know so we'll see I'll be back okay so I restored the machine to a clean state and drag to pack a malware onto the desktop we have 573 of our lovely friends in this folder I disabled the malware protection module I'm going to make sure that the updates are current they are and we're going to scan this folder with malwarebytes and see what the detection ratio is so I'll be back okay so malwarebytes finish scanning we had 359 objects left over and we started with what did I say 573 so 573 - 359 so it detected 214 items out of 573 oh boy 37.3% that is absolutely terrible for comparison's sake because I wanted to make sure I wasn't crazy and that all these files were benign I did a scan with Ximena and Ximena found an additional one hundred and fifty one items out of the 359 that are malicious that doesn't mean that some of those files that it didn't detect art malicious because these are fairly recent samples so just to be fair so if we take 359 - 151 208 so we could say that 208 of those files are actually malicious if we take 214 plus the 208 or 282 those are actually not malicious I'm sorry so I got to do my math again so the 214 it detected plus the 151 so it's still a 58.6% detection rate even if I only said there were 151 they were left over that were actually malicious so that's still terrible so I'm going to run some of these I'm going to turn the real-time protection back on for malwarebytes and we're going to see if it can detect some of these so I'm just going to start randomly running them and we're going to see what happens so let's try it okay that one's probably not malicious let's try this one that one doesn't work and we had some malware in memory let's try this one this one's probably some sort of adware now Avast yeah sure yeah that's definitely a vast right that is definitely 100% of my opinion probably malicious because what is that even so what does that say Avast Antivirus did catch a Trojan Trojan dot kill MBR so looks like it was trying to download something in the background and kill MBR I wonder if that's actually a Master Boot Record Trojan so it is catching some things that are trying to install that one doesn't work let's try this one Mozilla Firefox right yeah sure this one has no description I'm going to run a couple more of these and then we're going to call it a day doesn't work copy Mar whatever that is so that just hide that folder no it didn't something tried to load up a website on our on a either like we're getting some errors from these now we have some sort of Chinese malware running in memory okay well I think I've run enough of these that we get an idea of you know what's going on here so okay that caught some kind of a Trojan trying to come in let's uh I'm going to delete this folder then and then we're gonna delete I'm going to delete the folder and then we're going to just see if see what we got going on here so I'll be back okay so Ximena finished scanning hitman pro is still uploading things to the cloud oh boy we have a hollow process running we have some of these are on the desktop I wasn't able to delete them we have a virus on here we have some kind of obfuscated Trojan we have malware running and apt at a local temp this is a some sort of virus we have a Trojan in app data roaming another trojan and app data local temp oh but my favorite part and I think it's part of something related to this virus here we can take a look at this oops hang on a second it's not what I wanted to do we'll take a look at the hitman pro results in just a second yeah this 18x see obviously that's malware just by the name I can tell if we take a look at this and we take a look right here it's this problem this executable right here which is actually the legitimate dimana an time our setup executable has been modified it actually started uploading zamana actually started uploading its own executable to the cloud and it is infected it looks like we have some sort of a patching virus on here there's a lot of files that are detected as the same type of infection wow that's great because I download the disk from the internet it was clean when I downloaded it actually I download it from the host machine so looks like we have some sort of patching virus on here we have let me see here well this is labeled as a worm by semana anti-malware setup is labeled as a worm by hitman pro we have a Trojan probably some of this stuff is the same we have a worm again it looks like some sort of patching virus because it's labeled with the same signature as these Amana anti-malware setup is so anyways let's get to the conclusion of this review my thoughts on malwarebytes it's a disaster as you can see it's zero day protection is non-existent its detection rate is poor it didn't do very well on the link test the only thing that has that's it's going for it is its usability and it's it's a resource usage other than that it's a complete disaster you know yesterday it's anti ransomware technology is poorly implemented and you know it's not any better than when I tested it in the beta version it just it's didn't perform in the beta versions not performing here and I think part of that has to contribute to the fact that malwarebytes is just trying to do too much they're trying to replace their traditional antivirus and they're failing at it they really are this I wouldn't even trust this to back up my antivirus to be honest with you you know I used to be a big fan of malwarebytes and I still have it on my computer but that's not going to be lasting for very long because they're just they're trying to do too much they're trying to replace that traditional antivirus and you know they need to go back to the roots where they were just that second opinion scanner that everybody could rely upon to backup the antivirus and it was great back then but it's it's a disaster now so anyways I hope you guys enjoyed this video and if you liked it please subscribe and share this with your family and friends don't buy malwarebytes anti-malware premium it's not worth it save your money and get something else so I'll talk to you guys later you

Malwarebytes Premium کے لئے پیچ کے لئے شکریہ


text:
Irenaeus was not the typical bishop in the early Christian Church. He had been born in the early second century in what they knew as Asian Minor and what we call Turkey. Specifically, he was born in Smyrna to Greek parents. Yet the oddity in his pedigree was that he was the son of Christian parents in a time when most of the Church's leaders were adult converts. Irenaeus was raised in the Faith in which he became a spiritual leader and teacher and was able to take that which had been passed onto him by his parents and teachers and give it to others. Irenaeus was the study of Polycarp in Smyrna. In fact, Irenaeus was considered one of Polycarp's prize students. Polycarp,himself, had been the student of John the Apostle. Thus, Irenaeus understood his faith to be founded directly in the teachings of Jesus though his teacher and his teacher's teacher. The education he received from his teachers, his family, and his congregation was a gift that he treasured and handled carefully. But Irenaeus knew that the gift of truth could not simply be kept for himself but belonged in the hands of those who had ears to hear and eyes to see.
Irenaeus was an opponent of heresy but a lover of heretics. The particular heresy that Irenaeus resisted so avidly was that of the gnostics. They insist that the material nature of humanity and creation is by its very definition corrupt and evil. They go so far as to assert that Jesus only appeared to be human because the physical and the spiritual could have no union if the being was to be called "good." But, Irenaeus insisted that there was no salvation if Jesus was not fully human because the power of Jesus' blood-bought redemption was in the incarnation and theincredible physicality of the event. About the heretics he opposed he wrote:
"Such are the adversaries with whom we have to deal, my very dear friend, endeavouring like slippery serpents to escape at all points. Where-fore they must be opposed at all points, if per-chance, by cutting off their retreat, we may succeed in turning them back to the truth. For, though it is not an easy thing for a soul under the influence of error to repent, yet, on the other hand, it is not altogether impossible to escape from error when the truth is brought alongside it."
So, Irenaeus opposed the heretics in an attempt to bring the Truth alongside their errors so that they might escape the way of death and destruction and begin the journey of conversion that Irenaeus walked with the help of his teachers.
Irenaeus lived in a period of time when being Christian had a steep cost. Martyrs were being made among those who professed faith in Jesus and the ministers of the early Church were constantly working to avoid detection and execution. He was sent from Smyrna to Lyons where he was made a bishop and leader in the Church. He was relatively safe in Lyons in the late second century but he was still forced to deal with both severe persecution and public distrust. He wrote prolifically and intelligently so that others could benefit from his teachings and reasoning but he did not value philosophy over the teaching of the Holy Spirit. In fact, he often insisted that, though philosophy had its place, there was no faith without the movement of the Spirit. Therefore, even though he was a contemporary of Justin Martyr he was not, necessarily, in total agreement with him. About the Kingdom to which he aspired and which the world misunderstood he wrote:
"And when you hear that we look for a kingdom, you suppose, without making any inquiry, that we speak of a human kingdom; whereas we speak of that which is with God, as appears also from the confession of their faith made by those who are charged with being Christians, though they know that death is the punishment awarded to him who so confesses. For if we looked for a human kingdom, we should also deny our Christ, that we might not be slain; and we should strive to escape detection, that we might obtain what we expect. But since our thoughts are not fixed on the present, we are not concerned when men cut us off; since also death is a debt which must at all events be paid."
Irenaeus didn't need to say anything more about the Kingdom they sought to a world that so easily misunderstood it, its teachings, and its values–a Kingdom growing quickly by the teachings of those intimately connected to Jesus through a line of teachers and leaders.

Man Accused in Planned Parenthood Arson Attempt
JOPLIN (AP) - A Joplin man is charged with trying to set fire to the roof a Planned Parenthood clinic in the city.
The U.S. Justice Department said 30-year-old Jedediah Stout was arrested Friday and charged with attempted arson. He was held pending a federal court appearance Monday in Springfield.
The one-story clinic - which does not perform abortions - sustained minor damage the night of Oct. 4 when someone threw a backpack containing a bottle of clear liquid on the roof and lit an attached rope that hung to the ground. An identical attempt the previous night had failed.
FBI agents traced the backpack to a Wal-Mart store, where video showed Stout buying a backpack and rope Oct. 1.
Stout did not have a lawyer Friday and does not have a listed phone number.

Olaf Diegel is a professor of mechatronics at Massey University of Auckland, a music lover, and a 3D printing enthusiast. In the ultimate merger of passions, Olaf has spent the past several years creating a 3D printed drum kit and several 3D printed guitars using our SLS technology. Most recently, Olaf has risen to the challenge of 3DS CEO Avi Reichental by creating a working alto saxophone, which distinguishes itself from Olaf's previous creations through the intricacy of its function
Olaf spent weeks examining and measuring the parts of his traditional saxophone as he designed his 3D model. Once completed on screen, it was time to put his design to the test. The saxophone was printed in nylon powder on our sPro 230 3D printer. And? It works!
Satisfied with his proof of concept and achievement in creating the world's first 3D printed saxophone, Olaf plans to produce a second design that taps deeper into the capabilities of 3D printing. The next iteration will move away from assembled internals and instead integrate springs as part of the instrument keys. And now that the mechanics are all worked out, Olaf intends to have a little more fun with the aesthetics.
To hear what a 3D printed saxophone sounds like, check out the video below, and click here to find out more about Olaf's plans for future versions.

Play-Along Games and Songs is a 1986 Sesame Street video compilation of game and puzzle-themed skits, as well as songs which encourage viewer participation.
In the framing story, Big Bird leads a series of games with Elmo, Forgetful Jones, and a couple of kids (Jesse and Desiree).
The video was originally released on VHS by Random House in 1986. It was first released on DVD by Sony Wonder in 2005. The most recent reissue, by Genius Entertainment, was released in 2008.
|Big Bird tells Elmo and Forgetful Jones that it's time to play games, but Forgetful refuses, claiming he's "No-Games Jones", until Elmo points out he's "Forgetful Jones." Big Bird calls in two kids who are playing with Oscar the Grouch, and they start the first game: they watch a cartoon of a penguin making beats (First: Episode 0239) and Big Bird points to someone who repeats that beat.
| Muppet & Kid Moment — Herry Monster plays a game with a boy named Eric, who closes his eyes and guesses what Herry hands him (a ball, a feather, and his head).
The sketch is edited to remove Herry's third round of the game.
(First: Episode 1613)
|The next game is "The Rhyme Game", where Big Bird says a word, points to a person and they must make a rhyme. His word is "top" and when he calls on Forgetful Jones, they all hop to help him think of a word. He takes so long to guess that they all get tired. Big Bird tells him to play along with the next segment.
| Guy Smiley hosts "Beat the Time". In order to win a cookie, Cookie Monster has to bring in three things that rhyme with the word "rain" before the hand goes around the clock. They turn out to be an old man's "cane", a "chain" (to which Frazzle is attached), and finally a "train" which destroys the set.
(First: Episode 0446)
|Big Bird's next game features him drawing shapes in the air, having the rest of them guess what it is. He makes a rectangle, a triangle and his own creation - a ball of squiggly lines called "Fun."
| Cookie Monster sings "One of These Things."
(First: Episode 0174)
| Gordon sings "I Heard My Dog Bark" as Susan, Bob, Uncle Wally and some kids make the animal sounds.
(First: Episode 2169)
| Ernie & Bert — Lefty the Salesman wants to sell Ernie a painting of a tree, which he says is a picture of four elephants. Ernie doesn't see the four elephants, so Lefty offers to show him the elephants if Ernie will buy the picture for a nickel. Lefty points out the elephants, which are actually spaces in the tree's branches. Ernie shells out for the picture. Ernie wants to pull the same trick on Bert, but Bert notices the elephants right away.
(First: Episode 0292)
| Shape organization, part 4 (edited)
(First: Episode 0419)
| Grover sings "Over, Under, Around and Through."
(First: Episode 0258)
|The final game is "The Remember the Game Game!" Big Bird quizzes Forgetful on all the games and segments they saw with 60 seconds on the clock, but Forgetful forgets everything. Big Bird reminds the viewer that they can play the same games with friends, and even with their Sesame Street friends again!

Welcome to the UVM Neuroscience, Behavior and Health Initiative
Your behavior has significant impact on your own health, whether it is drinking soda, exercising, smoking cigarettes, becoming a vegan, or eating fatty foods. In fact, the incidence of type II diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and many types of cancer would be greatly reduced if we could promote healthy behaviors. But it's not as simple as telling everyone, "stop doing bad stuff to yourself." That's because our genes, the environment, the experiences that shape us as we mature from children to adults, and the immediate condition of our mind shape our behaviors.
The Neuroscience, Behavior, and Health Initiative seeks to improve human health through behavior change by promoting interdisciplinary research and education at UVM. This research effort spans the spectrum from genes and molecules to complex behaviors and the translation of this research goes from bench to bedside to community and back again. By bringing investigators and educators together across the university, we are making UVM an exciting place for transdisciplinary research, training, and education.
NBH is proud to partner with the growing, nationally recognized doctoral training programs in Biology, Cellular, Molecular and Biomedical Sciences, Clinical and Translational Science, Psychology and Neuroscience, as well as the Neuroscience Undergraduate Major.
NBH fosters public outreach by supporting a variety of events and programs that engage the community. These efforts include the Vermont Regional Brain Bee, Brain Awareness Week and the Macmillan Symposium to name a few. Read more about the 4th Annual Vermont Regional Brain Bee.

Low-maintenance turfgrass - the practical choice for golf-course roughs
In The Dictionary of Golf, Spencer David defines "rough" as the "undesired playing area where grass is maintained above 1.5 inches in height." This is a fairly good general definition, though it is open to different interpretations. My first game of golf and my first golf-related job were, admittedly, a long time ago. I can still remember what the rough was like on the two courses where I learned to play the game. One course had a well-maintained rough with 3 to 5 inches of thick bluegrass, and the other course had a minimally maintained rough with little turfgrass and a lot of weeds. Both roughs accomplished their purpose: punishment for making a poor shot. The purpose of a rough is the same today. As I play golf with my 13-year-old daughter, I encourage her to keep the ball on the short grass, because once she hits into the 3-inch-tall fescue rough, she is in serious trouble.
I wrote this article from the standpoint of a turfgrass breeder who is working with low-maintenance species well adapted to rough areas. However, my interest in turfgrasses for roughs stems from my long-term involvement with the game of golf and my knowledge of the rough, whether it be agronomic, aesthetic or functionally related.
What is an ideal rough? You must evaluate the qualities of a rough from several perspectives. The golf-course professional looks at it from the viewpoint of trying to maximize and speed up play. Golfers and, perhaps, tournament officials know that the course should penalize poor shots, but not too much. (Of course, how much is too much depends on whether you are the golfer or the official.) Finally, the rough must fit the requirements of the golf-course superintendent, who must work with limited resources to maintain this peripheral but significant portion of the golf course.
The ideal rough should address the viewpoints of all individuals concerned about the rough. My thoughts on the ideal low-maintenance rough include the following points: The rough should allow the golfer to quickly find the golf ball. The rough should impart a penalty for an errant shot. The superintendent should be able to adjust the severity of the penalty by varying the mowing height. The rough should allow reduced levels of inputs and time for maintenance of the area. At these lower input levels, the quality of the rough should be acceptable - good uniformity, few weeds and aesthetics that fit the character of the golf course. The rough should tolerate cart and foot traffic (or adequate cart paths should be available). The turfgrass species should have qualities that allow you to maintain it as primary, secondary or tertiary rough, depending on proximity to the fairway. (A trend on golf courses in our area calls for leaving certain out-of-play areas of the rough completely unmaintained.)
Species and cultivar selection Most turfgrasses are adaptable to many management systems. This makes them good choices for golf-course roughs, and it is my opinion that most species used on golf courses are potential candidates for the rough (an exception might be creeping bentgrass). In the North, my choices for a low-maintenance rough are Kentucky bluegrass, bluegrass/ryegrass mixes, tall fescue, fine fescue and buffalograss. In the South, I recommend bermudagrass - vegetative or seeded - and buffalograss. Each of these species has advantages and disadvantages in the rough. Let's discuss each of them and how they function in the rough. Do not consider the order of discussion a preference ranking. Each golf-course situation is different, leading to different choices.
Kentucky bluegrass If climatic conditions allow it, Kentucky bluegrass provides an outstanding rough with a great deal of flexibility for various levels of quality and degree of penalty. Kentucky bluegrass prefers fertile soil in the cool, humid regions of the United States and can provide golf courses with a high-quality rough or even a good low-maintenance rough. I have long felt that Kentucky bluegrass is a stronger plant when you maintain it at a lower level of management. This suggests that bluegrass in the rough with some fertility and water will provide a functional rough at reduced management levels. Bluegrass also has the ability to adapt to low, medium and higher mowing heights, making it suitable for areas close to the fairway or completely out-of-play.
The major disadvantages of bluegrass are that it does have higher input requirements than some other species, and it may perform poorly if unirrigated in drier areas.
Kentucky bluegrass/perennial ryegrass mixtures Superintendents often use this mixture in rough areas with results similar to Kentucky bluegrass alone. Perennial ryegrass significantly speeds establishment of the rough, but with the maintenance designed for the rough (low to medium inputs), the Kentucky bluegrass predominates and the rough performs much as if it was entirely bluegrass.
When using this mixture, remember that perennial ryegrass is a vigorous seedling and plant, and seeding rates and mix percentages should encourage Kentucky-bluegrass establishment. Under rough conditions, 30 percent perennial ryegrass and 70 percent Kentucky bluegrass should provide excellent establishment and enough bluegrass to provide a good long-term rough.
Much of what I say about the maintenance of a Kentucky bluegrass rough also applies to a perennial-ryegrass/Kentucky-bluegrass rough. However, if you maintain the rough at a high management-input level, it will require extra mowing to stay under control. Without additional mowing, the extra growth from the ryegrass will affect function and playability.
Tall fescue In the drier areas of the Great Plains and even into the Transition Zone, tall fescue is ideal for the rough. Tall fescue tolerates a variety of management extremes and is relatively drought-tolerant in areas with adequate subsoil moisture. On the golf course that I play (Firethorn, a highly rated Pete Dye design that is much too hard for me), they use turf-type tall fescue adjacent to the fairways at a 3-inch mowing height and a 6-inch height in the secondary rough. In the out-of-play tertiary rough, they use unmowed K-31 tall fescue. This course hosted the Women's U.S. Amateur last August. The course was beautiful: The rough at different heights created an attractive background for each hole, while still functioning to penalize misplaced shots.
Management of tall fescue usually is not a problem in our area (Zones 4 and 5), but occasionally some stand loss occurs during severe winters. Also, especially in a wet spring, the unmowed tertiary rough can be so thick that you're unlikely to find a lost ball. The members play this area as a lateral hazard.
The maintenance level of the tall-fescue rough at Firethorn is low to medium. They apply fertilizer in the spring and summer and irrigate the primary rough only when necessary. I consider the 3-inch primary rough playable, but it is a much harder shot to make.
Fine fescues Courses have used fine fescues in shade mix in golf-course roughs for many years. However, a newer trend of using unmowed fine fescues on slopes, where the species is well adapted, is occurring. This approach has some merit, because it reduces maintenance, the species functions well when you maintain it as rough, and it supplies a penalty for hitting there. Golf balls typically don't settle into it, so you can usually find them. Aesthetically, the unmowed fine fescues have a pleasing appearance. This use of fine fescues was successful at the Prairie Landing Golf Course near Chicago. The superintendent's main concern was adequate weed control, but I am confident he will resolve this issue by trying different herbicides and application strategies.
The fine fescues are well-adapted to low maintenance. This suggests that they should provide good long-term performance in the rough, but certain concerns exist. For example, one area that may require a new management approach is the removal of the previous year's growth. An annual mowing might be adequate to keep the fine fescues actively growing, but it may be that an annual burning such as those that growers use in seed-production fields would be better.
Bermudagrass Although most of my experience is with the cool-season areas of the United States, my first position out of school was in Florida. This allowed me to have first-hand experience with the roughs of the South (at an age where I could hit the golf ball farther off line).
In my experience, most southern bermudagrass roughs are common, seeded bermudagrass or Tifway 419 (on some high-end courses). Usually, the most significant change from the fairway to the rough is the increase in mowing height. However, you can reduce other inputs as well.
Bermudagrass makes a satisfactory-to-good rough that functions well but doesn't have the sharp color transition some other species provide. However, in winter, when the bermudagrass is dormant and the fairways are overseeded, it provides an outstanding contrast (see photo, page G 44). It also holds up better than other species when dormant.
The main disadvantage of bermudagrass as a rough is that it requires more water and nitrogen than some other species to perform well. Ideally, however, we should not require such a high level of quality in roughs, and reduced inputs should provide an acceptable turf.
Buffalograss Buffalograss is an ideal species for roughs in arid and semi-arid areas or even areas that have occasional drought or water shortages. Buffalograss is native to the Great Plains and well adapted to reduced-input management systems such as roughs. Buffalograss requires low inputs of water, fertilizer, pesticides and has slow vertical growth, which translates to a reduced mowing requirement. However, you also can maintain buffalograss at a higher level of inputs, and you can even mow it as close as 0.625 inch.
A golf ball is relatively easy to find in a 3- to 4-inch buffalograss rough, and it also is much easier to hit the ball out of buffalograss than bermudagrass. Buffalograss should be relatively tolerant of traffic, but I have seen stands that were kept fairly wet that suffered from traffic effects. Thus, traffic tolerance may depend, in part, on soil-moisture status, but shouldn't be a problem in drier areas away from greens.
Golf courses in the South and Transition Zone are only just starting to use buffalograss in roughs. We still have a great deal to learn about its use and management in this situation. My major concern is that because it is a warm-season species adapted to the North, where spring is delayed, it will stay dormant while other species (except bermudagrass) are actively growing. Also, the use of buffalograss in the rough is a major change: Golf-course managers need to be willing to make the change and learn how to manage this new species.
You must remember that the rough is a large, important area of the golf course. As the game of golf flourishes and we make changes in our management programs due to changes in budgets, environmental concerns or turf-quality issues, superintendents should not overlook their roughs. Golf-course managers probably have more rough-management options than ever before. As long as you remember its purpose, you can have a great rough with a species and maintenance level that suits your operation.

(Pocket-lint) - We've lived with the Nikon Coolpix P7700 for a long weekend now, and we've been steadfastly snapping through stacks of images to see how it performs.
There's a lot to like upon initial impressions - the 28-200mm f/2.0-4.0 lens paired with a 12-megapixel 1/1.7-inch CMOS sensor has produced some sharp shots. The close-up focus is rather impressive too:
However, that wide aperture doesn't produce the prettiest of bokeh in all conditions. In fact, as in the sample shot were the highlights blow out in the sky, it looks downright ugly to us.
We scratched out techy brains and thought it could be down to heavy-handed JPEG processing, but even the raw file produced similar results - just take a browse in our image gallery below for the comparison shot (at 1000 pixels wide and actual size crops; Raw to the left, JPEG to the right of the line). We'll keep on shooting in all manner of conditions to see how the P7700 responds to all kinds of light.
Higher ISO settings aren't too bad either. Although colour seems to jump off a cliff at ISO 3200 - see the two pence coin, the cool colour cast is less present at lower ISO settings - the level of image noise, while certainly present, isn't offensive, and the shot still has enough "bite" to praise its sharpness.
When we first got our hands on a prototype P7700 it came without a battery and so it's only now that we've been able to get a proper play with Nikon's latest high-end compact. So far we're impressed - it's far quicker than its P7100 predecessor - but for the full story you'll have to wait for our full Nikon Coolpix P7700 review, including a more thorough image quality investigation, which will be arriving on the site this very week.

Accused: Nick Greiner.FORMER New South Wales premier Nick Greiner has admitted concealing his company's involvement in a deal that has become the target of a $25 million bid-rigging allegation by a Swiss investment firm.
Pala Investments, a Swiss group controlled by Russian oligarch Vladimir Iorich, has accused Mr Greiner of using his positions in two companies to hoodwink Pala into selling a subsidiary for less that it was worth.
Mr Greiner chairs mining services company Bradken, which had expressed an interest in buying the subsidiary group Norcast in February 2011.
Bradken claims it was excluded from the sale process, after which US private equity group Castle Harlan made the purchase for $190 million and sold it to Bradken for $202 million.
In addition to his role at Bradken, Mr Greiner sits on the board of Castle Harlan's Australian affiliate, CHAMP. He is also head of the federal government's GST review.
Appearing in the Federal Court in Victoria, Mr Greiner said he had chosen not to "promote" the fact that Bradken was ultimately behind the transaction, because the company had originally been rejected from a deal.
"Norcast had excluded us," Mr Greiner said. "So the notion that we would fly a Bradken flag over the transaction doesn't make sense.
"It would have increased the risk of the transaction not happening."
Pala claims that Castle Harlan was acting as an intermediary for Bradken, and that it would have asked for a higher price had it known Bradken was behind the deal.
Bradken chief executive Brian Hodges also gave evidence to the court over his involvement in the on-sale of Norcast.
When an email revealed he had passed on detailed financial information about a possible Norcast acquisition to people above him, he was forced to backstep statements that he had stopped "pursuing" the purchase.
After Mr Hodges played down the importance of the email, counsel for Pala, Charles Scerri, QC, asked: "So you just send meaningless information to people for the fun of it?"
Pala has filed similar claims against Castle Harlan in the Supreme Court of New York.
The case is continuing.

Swindon Advertiser
Psychiatrist faces malpractice charge
By Dominic Gilbert
February 5, 2014
Dr George Hibbert, who held sway over the fate of hundreds of parents and their children at the Tadpole Cottage assessment centre in Blunsdon, faces allegations he failed to provide good clinical care to a patient.
The Adver previously reported allegations surrounding the doctor, who has been fighting every step of the way and in 2012 even offered to surrender his licence to practice in exchange for an inquiry launched by the General Medical Council being dropped.
Last year the path was opened for a High Court challenge to the inquiry after a top judge found there was sufficient evidence to dismiss the allegations.
But a Medical Practition-ers Tribunal Service hearing has now been set between 17 February and 28 February, to be heard in Manchester.
The GMC investigation was launched after a woman in her 30s alleged Dr Hibbert wrongfully urged her three-year-old toddler be removed from her care by social workers.
After a three month stay at Dr Hibbert's medical centre, the child was taken into foster care before being returned to the mother a year later after a judge ruled it was in the baby's best interest.
The allegations being brought for Dr Hibbert to answer include failure to provide good clinical care to a patient.
It is alleged that he failed to adequately consider a differential diagnosis, discuss his treatment and care of the patient with the consultant responsible for the patient's care, and prepare a care plan in advance of the patient being discharged from Tadpole Cottage.
It is also alleged that Dr Hibbert's actions were misleading and dishonest in that he informed a nurse at St George's Hospital that the patient had left Tadpole Cottage of her own accord, when he knew this to be untrue, and it is further alleged that he submitted a final report to the court which did not provide an accurate account of the patient's discharge.
As previously reported, in his practice the Assessment in Care Centre, Dr Hibbert charged local authorities £6,000 a week for every family in his care and £210 an hour just to read documents such as medical records.
By 2007 his company was making a profit of around £460,000-a-year from the arrangement with social services.
Speaking to the Adver yesterday Dr Hibbert said he was bound by confidentiality not to make any comment, but he reiterated he has strenuously denied the charges since they were brought to him two years ago.

Bagging It!
Gunung Butak is the highest mountain of a large range west of Malang, East Java. As it is under 3,000m in elevation, it is less popular than other, higher peaks in the region (many of which can be seen from the top). There is a delightful grassy meadow near the summit called Cemoro Kandang which is perfect for camping and the views at the top are spectacular.
Tuyomerto, Batu route
There are three main starting points for this Ribu and the most popular and easily reached is Tuyomerto village near Batu, Malang. Up until 2015 or so, the mountain was known only to hiking enthusiasts and a few local villagers – indeed, most locals had never heard of Butak and it was necessary to say 'alun-alun' or 'savanna' (alternative names for Cemoro Kandang) or 'Gunung Kawi' (a lower peak in the range but also the name of the range as a whole until recently).
As of 2017 things have changed dramatically with a considerable increase in the number of people climbing this mountain and the smaller Gunung Panderman which is part of the same range but much lower at just 2,045m. The trail up Butak is no longer overgrown, and there are signs for both Panderman and Gunung Butak (spelt 'Bhutak' on the signs here for some unknown reason). From Batu, take an ojek to Kampung Tuyomerto (1,305m), which takes about 15 minutes, and follow the road as far up as you can go.
The old basecamp is gone but there is an attractive new wooden building (1,357m) above Tuyomerto village where hikers can purchase very affordable entrance tickets, find guides and porters, and leave their motorbikes overnight. There are even a couple of warungs to purchase snacks and drinks.
Pak Budi remains the best guide and can organise other villagers as porters. A guide can take you up and down in one long day (start early!) or a guide and porters will take you one-way and carry your gear to the camping area at Cemoro Kandang / Alun-alun / Savanna – you then carry your own gear down the next day. You can also hike at night in time for the sunrise and then straight back down – this means no need for camping gear but then again you won't be able to savour the atmosphere properly unless you do camp up there.
From the new wooden building above Tuyomerto, it takes approximately 5 to 6 hours to reach the large grassy camping area known as Cemoro Kandang (or 'alun-alun' / 'savanna') (2,670 m) and the hike is almost 10 km following a fairly modest gradient. It takes about 3.5 to 4.5 hours to come down the same way. There are several places on the trail where it is possible to camp, but none are anywhere near as pleasant as Cemoro Kandang.
From the base camp, the climb through the cabbage fields and other agriculture to Pos 2 (1,573 m) takes about 45 minutes. From Pos 2 you continue up a valley in degraded/secondary forest before the steepest section of the hike up to Pos 4 (1,970 m), which takes about 1 hour. After this climb, the trail has a very nice gentle gradient via Pos 5 (2,180m), which mean you can hike at a good speed. Look out for edible physalis plants ('ciplukan' fruits) growing by the trail at an elevation of around 2,200, – 2,400m.
After another 3 hours you should reach Pos 6 (2,463m), faster if the trail is clear. The route to the alun-alun – known as Cemoro Kandang (2,670 m) – and camping area is much clearer from here, and should take no more than 2 hours. The views in good weather are lovely from here as you walk beneath tall trees and see Semeru and Arjuno-Welirang in the distance. As the trail skirts round the mountain, you will see a peak to the right (west north west) which is part of the same range as Butak but difficult to reach from here. It is called Gunung Kawi and has two peaks over 2,600m in elevation. In clear conditions, to the left of Kawi is Gunung Liman and Gunung Lawu in the far distance, and then the pyramid-like rocky summit of fiery Gunung Kelud in the foreground. Looking north, you may see the large forested range called Anjasmoro which lies west of Arjuno-Welirang and has an unusual-shaped peak.
Once you have arrived at Cemoro Kandang (2,670m), look for a suitable flat area to pitch your tent (preferably away from the main path to minimise noise from other hikers at night). In some areas the grass is very clumpy. There is an excellent source of drinking water from a spring with a pipe, and beyond the spring, further south, is a brilliant view to the summit of Java's highest peak Semeru.
The highest point is a 30-minute climb up to the top of the ridge that surrounds the alun-alun and in good conditions you can see Arjuno, Semeru, Liman and Lawu in the far distance. This ridge is presumably the remains of an ancient volcanic crater wall, though these days there is no obvious volcanic activity here. In previous years it was not always easy to find the trail to the true summit, but as of 2017 there is a signpost for Gn Butak about 250m south of the spring (follow the path on the right) and at the point at which you have a very clear view of Semeru to the east. In good weather, you may even be able to see the large stone cairn and flagpole at the summit from Cemoro Kandang itself.
After admiring the panorama of the giants of East Java, it is 20-25 minutes back down to Cemoro Kandang from the summit, unless of course you wish to camp on the summit ridge which is certainly large enough for 4 or 5 tents. The Bakosurtanal map suggests the peaks is only 2,862m high but GPS data seems to be in favour of 2,868m.
Kraton Gunung Kawi route
Whilst most hikers return the same way to Tuyomerto (in under 4 hours for fast hikers), there are at least two other routes worth considering if time is not an issue. Firstly, a trail continues south from Cemoro Kandang to an ancient well and some interesting ancient grave sites and small caves. It heads roughly southeast and eventually brings you out at Kraton Gunung Kawi (roughly 1,205m elevation) which is a place where people go to pray for good luck and so on. This is a shorter trail than Tuyomerto, but is less frequently used, more overgrown and also apparently takes longer because you ascend Puncak Batu Tulis (2,595m) first (Gunung Pitrang – 2,593m – on the Bakosurtanal map). Allow at least 6 hours to get down to Kraton Gunung Kawi. Of course, the Kraton ought really to be called Kraton Gunung Butak, because Gunung Kawi is in the opposite direction – north-west rather than south east.
Sirah Kencong route
The mountain can also be climbed from the west. The other trail – also shorter than the Tuyomerto route – starts at the village of Sirah Kencong (roughly 1,085m). This trail actually leads directly up to the summit ridge rather than via Cemoro Kandang and leads via Wukir Negara (1,426m), Pos 1 (1,716m), Pos 2 (2,028m), Camp 2 (2,162m), Pos 3 (2,269m), Pos 4 (2,396m), Camp 3 (2,510m) and Pos 5 (2,718m). Not surprisingly, Camp 2 and 3 are the best camp spots.
Gunung Kawi
Gunung Kawi itself is a much less well-frequented peak around 4 kilometres north/north-west of the top of Gunung Butak. It has a steep crater wall to the west and two summits within 1 kilometre of each other – the northern top is 2,622m and the southern top is 2,639m according to the Bakosurtanal map. The trails here are likely to be incredibly overgrown, but there is a simple building or shelter at the top of the northern summit. The best approach is from the north near Pujon but you will probably find it difficult to find anyone who has been here before.

Origins and Meaning
There are two possible origins. The first possibility is that it comes from 'botak' meaning 'bald' in Indonesian. The mountain is rather grassy near the top which may lead it to be described as 'bald'. The alternative origin is from the Javanese word 'buta' meaning 'hidden', unable to be seen.

Everyone's an expert! Or so it seems.
Everybody we speak to about this project knows exactly what they'd cook for breakfast, how the rooms would be decorated, what time they'd have breakfast, what they'd offer people in the way of extras, how they'd market, and whether they would be dog friendly or not.
My sister pointed out that it was like being pregnant and discussing names for the soon-to-be-born baby, everyone has an opinion about what you should call / not call your unborn child, and this isn't that much different. In the end her and her husband just clammed up, and I suspect that's what we might have to do.
The thing is, everyone LOVES a B&B and like the government campaign for teaching, everyone remembers a good one. Yet ask people what they remember and I can almost guarantee they won't say:
"I was having a miserable time until I came down to breakfast, and there were two sausages, not the expected one, on my plate in the morning; after that, they could do not wrong".
Very few people (in my humble, non-experienced opinion) will base their love of a place on one or two details: Yet I do believe they will remember the feel of a place when they walked in the door, they will remember if the proprietors were helpful and friendly, they will remember if they had a good night's sleep, and they will remember if the view took their breath away when they looked out of the bedroom window.
I'm slowly realising, after the third heated debate about the breakfast menu, that the most important thing about this guesthouse is that it resembles us. The best possible version of 'us', but 'us' nonetheless. That way, while other people's ideas are welcomed (really – they are), they are not going to inform what we do more than we will.
If we choose not to be dog friendly then we will not attract dog owners, but we will attract those that don't like dogs. If we choose to allow kids under 12 then we will attract families, while losing DINKYs, and so on.
Ultimately, the guests are the most important people in this equation and as we have no experience of them yet, we have to do what we would love, what we are proud to offer / cook / decorate… and then tweak as per guest feedback.
I have no doubt that we will get it wrong on occasion, but isn't that part and parcel of a new venture? After all Edison invented hundreds of light bulbs that didn't work before he found one that did, and wasn't that process of elimination equally valuable?
Not that I'm saying we want thousands of guests to have a horrible experience until we come across the winning formula, we don't. What I am saying, however, is that we will create our perfect guesthouse and while it might not be what you would do, or you, or even you… it will still be just right.

Recently, I treated myself to a new book. The book, "Beyond the Spitfire: The Unseen Designs of R.J.Mitchell". When I saw the ad, while it had a Spit above in the background, right in front was an artist's conception of a large 4 engine flying boat with gull wings and sponsons, and this was the primary selling point for me, because if this book is about Mitchell's other designs which never made it, then this one must be described inside.
And, yes it is. It was designed for specification R.2/33, which also resulted in one of the lesser known Sunderland flying boats.
While this was purely a paper plane(a design which was never built), there is a 3 view on page 175 of the book, and as a modeller, it cries out(to me), "I should be built", even if I don't have enough experience right now to tackle something like this, even in 1/72 scale.
However, Type 232 aside, there are a lot of other designs of Mitchell's which never went beyond paper, but were still designed and 3 views available, and this includes all the other flying boat designs, many of which were based upon the Southhampton, so perhaps if anyone who never knew about this book(it is a new publication), put this on your wish list and go visit Evil Bay or Amazon. While this was listed at anywhere from over 40 dollars to somewhat less than 200 in Amazon, I found my copy in Ebay and paid around 18 bucks for it, so it could be found at a more reasonable price than at Amazon.
And something about wanting to get a real paper book instead of doing an internet search. While the internet is nice, and if you want to find out information on almost most everything, not all information is on the internet, the youngsters who claim otherwise notwithstanding. I am a modeller(and a licensed aircraft mechanic, but that's a tale for another time, as I do have a few interesting experiences working on a flying boat or two, including one Goose that was languishing in a junk yard until someone turned it back into a real live flying machine), and as I like to build scale models that look reasonably close, and I tend to prefer the lesser known designs(especially Soviet airliners of the 20s and 30s, plus a few of Beriev's designs), I've found that the best sources of information for those is not so much on the internet, but between the pages of books and periodicals printed during the 60s, 70s, and 80s, which can be found on Ebay and elsewhere where out of print publications are sold. And what is contained within the pages of the above book is no exception.

This privacy statement affirms our commitment to the protection of personal information and to inform you of our practices with respect to the collection, use and disclosure of personal information.
The federal legislation, Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), requires business, including law firms, to comply with the statutory requirements aimed at protecting personal information.

If we use services of third parties and disclose personal information to them, we will enter into legal agreements which require these third parties to protect your personal information in a manner acceptable to us. In entering into these legal agreements, we do not transfer any interest in your personal information to them. Rather, the purpose of these legal agreements is to ensure that personal information delivered to third parties is maintained at a level of security equal to that provided by Patterson Law under this Privacy Statement.

We have also developed policies and procedures to protect personal information including, but not limited to:
Identifying Purposes. We are committed to openness to you regarding our collection and use of your personal information. We have outlined the purposes for which we collect, use and disclose your personal information above. Should we need to use your personal information for any purpose other than those listed above, we will seek your consent for that specific purpose.
Consent. By providing personal information to Patterson Law, you agree and consent that we may collect, use and disclose your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Statement. Patterson Law is committed to ensuring that you are aware of why your personal information is being collected, how your personal information is being used, and for what reason your personal information may be disclosed. To this end, we will use all reasonable efforts to provide information to you on how your personal information will be collected, used and disclosed by us.
As well, we may periodically request written confirmation from you to ensure that the personal information collected and maintained by us is up-to-date and accurate and that we have your continuing consent to the use or retention of your personal information.
You are entitled to withdraw your consent for the retention and use of your personal information. Please contact our Chief Privacy Officer to discuss your options in this regard.

We are pleased to answer any questions you may have regarding the collection and maintenance of personal information. Please contact our Chief Privacy Officer in writing or by email at the address set out below.

Where you can demonstrate that an error in the accuracy or completeness of your personal information exists, we will amend your personal information appropriately.

Central Connecticut volleyball junior Rachel Dunlapwas named Molten/Northeast Conference Defensive Player of the Week on Monday afternoon. Dunlap earned the award with her performance in CCSU's three set victory over Bryant on Saturday.
Dunlap contributed to six blocks against the Bulldogs to earn her second consecutive defensive player of the week award and league-best fourth of the season.
Dunlap averaged 2.0 blocks per set, in an errorless performance at the net. She was also errorless on offense where she produced six kills on eight attacks for a .750 hitting percentage.
Heading into the weekend, Dunlap ranked seventh in Division I with 1.47 blocks per set. She is the NEC's leading blocker this season.
Dunlap and the Blue Devils (14-7, 5-2 NEC) will return to action this weekend at Saint Francis U and Robert Morris. CCSU is currently riding a five match winning streak and a stretch of 12 victories in 14 contests.

Posts Tagged 'Syndell Studios'
Craig Kauffman in San Francisco
One of the most interesting things I've learned from my research is the number of times Craig Kauffman showed in San Francisco. In the first decade of his career, from 1951 to 1961, he participated in a dozen shows in S.F., far more than in Los Angeles. For a painter so closely identified by critics with L.A., that's very surprising.
Three of these were early group shows, in a regional annual exhibit: The Annual Watercolor Exhibition of the San Francisco Art Association, held at the San Francisco Museum of Art. Many artists participated in such annuals in the early 1950s, because there were few places to exhibit, and the shows offered jurors, awards, and visibility. Kauffman also showed in the 1961 version of the watercolor show at the San Francisco Museum of Art.
Important partnerships formed during the 1950s, notably through Syndell Studios and the collaborative organization of Action I, also known as the "Merry Go Round Show," on the Santa Monica pier. Two of Kauffman's good friends, James Newman and Walter Hopps, went on to establish galleries. Hopps, of course, partnered with Ed Kienholz to found the legendary Ferus gallery in 1957. Less noted but equally important in this period for Kauffman was Dilexi gallery, which was founded by James Newman.
It was there in San Francisco at Dilexi that Kauffman had eight early exhibitions, both group and solo. Interesting documentation from this time exists in the Archives of American Art, as well as in reviews published in the San Francisco Chronicle, Art News, and Art International. James Newman later donated a Kauffman painting, collected from Dilexi, to the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.
I've written before about the ways that Northern and Southern California are often compared and contrasted: divisions, disagreements, climates, and permeable lines. But here's another example of an artist who traveled back and forth, living in both cities, and exhibiting in related galleries.

Exclusive non-woven wallpaper collection " Estelle " by Marburg
ESTELLE is made for those who love the extraordinary in the background and focus their attention on small , valuable things. It adapts to a facility that focuses on the essentials , but it is elegant and contemporary. ESTELLE is divided into three themes .
The first theme is the flower of the peony. The exchange between metallic shiny and dull - matt contrasts gives the wallpapers its special Grace. The colouring is muted: taupe, sand stone.
The second pattern is abstract and consists of elongated oval shapes . The special feature of this motif is that the viewer can recognize the individual pigments, so that the forms seem to flicker almost . The colours are bold : Petrol Blue , Copper with basalt and oxblood red in combination with platinum.
Third issue is a grass motif reminiscent of seaweed swaying under water in the flow. Again, we see the change between gloss and matte . The hues are wonderful : cool blue in combination with silver or white.
