Description: To view the full length hi-resolution version visit Mount Equinox at mountequinox.com. Juro was out this afternoon rollerblading around the park with Rex when they bumped into Sebastian who was off sitting by himself. They seemed to notice that Rex was a bit down so they talked him into going off into the woods for some fun. They figured it would help cheer up our depressed young man it they offered him a little bit of action. Rex knew what Sebastian needed and sat our boy up against a tree in the woods and had his pants unzipped in no time flat exposing Sebastian's long uncut twink cock. Rex spit on his hands lubed up his cock and wrapped those delicious boy lips of his around that thick shaft. Sebastian was enjoying his blow job while making out with Juro at the same time. Juro of course wanted in on the action as both Juro and Rex took turns fighting over Sebastian's cock. Juro gives up and decides to whip out his cock. Now Rex has his work cut out for him with two uncut twink cocks waving in his face. Our boy Sebastian fucks Juro good. You can see his cock going deep into Juro's ass and the condom doesn't even make it to base of his cock. That is how big his boy toy is. Nothing better than three naked twinks out in the woods fucking like animals. After Sebastian had his turn it was time for our young stud muffin Rex to take over. Sebastian lays back on the tree with Juro on all fours sucking Sebastian's cock while his ass is being pounded by our boy Rex. Nice hot explosive ending to this afternoon fuck fest in the woods. Two young studs shooting their hot loads onto Sebastian's tight smooth twink body. Juro licks the remaining cum from the tip of Rex's cock to make sure nothing is wasted.

In doing some research on the 5.Gebrigs-Division I stumbled upon some excellent info regarding a relatively unknown late war operation in northwestern Italy against the 92nd US Infantry Division known as Operation Winter Storm. During this operation over Christmas 1944 a mixed group German infantry and mountain troopers and Italian RSI troops pushed back an entire US division from it's positions and managed to retake a section 20km wide and 8km deep into enemy territory. It's especially interesting in that this operation took part during the much more well known Battle of the Bulge on the Western Front.
Anyway, while looking into this info I came across reference to "Hochgeb.Btl 6" stationed with the 5.Geb.Div in September of 1944, that is, according to info printed on the "Heeresgruppe C OB Sudwest Dislokation nach Lage Sudwest-Sudost" map for 16.9.44 - does anyone know if this is accurate?
All other resources I have only list 4 Hochgebirgs-Jäger-Bataillonen, numbers 1 through 4. I have never seen reference to a 6th Hochgebirgs-Jäger-Bataillone anywhere.
Can anyone confirm or deny the existance of this unit?

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo to cash-strapped schools, municipalities: Merge
ALBANY, N.Y. — The New York state budget currently under negotiation may be remembered years from now as the beginning of the end for many small towns, cities and school districts.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo had tough words Friday for local officials facing fiscal crises and seeking more help from Albany, telling them they should consolidate services or whole governments and school districts rather than looking for relief from Albany.
"If it was really, really tough, you'd see that happen," Cuomo said in his strongest comments yet on the local fiscal crises. "If you are a school district, or a city, or a town or a county, and you are looking for a fundamental financial reform, consolidation is one of the obvious ones."
Cuomo said he believes local politics is standing in the way of mergers and consolidations that would save taxpayers money and improve efficiency of services. He said deciding to consolidate should be easy, yet "politically, it's difficult ... I get the politics."
Despite years of hard times, Cuomo said you can count "on one hand" the number of consolidations among 50,000 local governments, school districts, fire and library taxing districts and more.
School districts and local governments say they are already consolidating and merging, but that's not enough. They are asking for more laws than Cuomo has offered in his state budget proposal to cut labor costs, pension costs and more funding.
"Talk of consolidation is just an avoidance action by the state so they can avoid the real problem of state mandates," said Peter Baynes of the New York Conference of Mayors. "If you talk to any local government in New York state, they can rattle off the consolidations they've made and they are squeezing all the savings they can out of shared services."
Baynes said voters only agreed to dissolve three villages out of 20 that held votes within the last five years. But in most cases, the savings — if any — were seen as too low and the diminished services and cost of a lost hometown identity too high, he said.
Local governments and school districts blame programs and costs required by Albany, often won by politically powerful public worker unions, for many of them facing insolvency.
Cuomo has offered a way to cut current pension costs now by borrowing against projected future savings, but a growing number of local leaders consider that risky and unwise. Another would require arbitrators in labor disputes to consider local taxpayers' ability to pay for a labor resolution, but that faces opposition in the Legislature. Continued...
Despite layoffs and service cuts, these municipalities and school districts say they face insolvency within five years.
"We know of 20 school districts that are currently considering mergers and are in various stages," said David Albert of the New York State School Boards Association. But he said most in the past have ended as one did this week near Glens Falls, losing by a 4:1 margin in a vote of the residents.
"The communities don't want economics to drive every educational decision. They want a quality education for their children," Albert said. "So we find a lot of mergers fail."
However, he said hundreds of schools and districts now share sports teams to cut costs. Others share academic program costs, business officers or even share a superintendent, often the highest paid school employee.
Meanwhile, Cuomo and legislative leaders continue closed-door negotiations with the goal of agreeing to a $143 billion budget by Monday so it can be voted into law by March 21, well before the April 1 deadline.
Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver has made raising the minimum wage to $9 an hour a major goal of his Democratic conference and has support from the Democratic governor and the Independent Democratic Conference in the Senate. Senate Republicans continue to seek up to $2 billion in tax cuts for small businesses and the middle class.
Also in the mix is a second extension of the so-called temporary millionaire's tax which raises $1.9 billion a year is also being discussed in a budget that was billed to have no tax increases, according to two state officials familiar with the talks. They spoke to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity because they weren't authorized to discuss issues in closed-door negotiations.
The income tax increase is currently due to expire in 2014. Approval now would avoid taking up the dicey issue in an election year for Cuomo and lawmakers.

It wasn't long before the others had gotten themselves ready to travel with the Jerdonians. It couldn't have been soon enough thought some of the staff, all annoyed to some degree for varying reasons. Enough violence and other manner of discord had broken out during their stay that otherwise wouldn't have, and even though they were compensated for most of the actual damage to the inn, some of them couldn't look at the imprint in the flooring, the couple dozen knives sticking on the outside of the door, and the blood on the floor in one of the now vacant rooms and not wonder how they survived the tenants from hell.
The group was out of Worthington within a half hour, passing through the west gate and making their way west, toward Jerdon. As midday approached, they continued along the road toward a forest that the road went straight through.

Are you looking to re-position your brand and products/services to a distinct audience? Brands that are looking to aggressively grow their business don't want to isolate their current customers because that's their "sweet spot," but they want to grow and need to look to new customer segments to make that happen. Here are some great examples of partnerships that I have seen in recent times.

text: Recent history would tell us Ravens fans that this game is a slam dunk for the Ravens. The Colts remind me a lot of the Dolphins , chiefs, houston, pats, and tennesse.These are teams the Ravens have beaten in the past in the playoffs who were upincoming teams who were not great but good. The Pats stunk that year without Welker. I dont like this matchup at all. The colts have the two bookend De's that have always giving us problems and Pagano knows the Ravens really well. Plus Luck is the real deal and should be able to get the ball to Reggie Wayne. Finally this Ravens team is who they are good but not great and don't handle being a favorite very well. I'm picking the Ravens because they are at home but if its close inthe 4th I like the Colts. 23-14 Ravens

For one year, I will be without social communication such as Facebook, texting, this blog or anything that uses the internet. I will surrender the use of my bank account and credit card, and will live on a modest stipend of $50 a month giving any money I receive towards the needs of the house. I will not have almost no control over the way I spend my time, when I can leave, and where I can go. I will spend much of my time in quiet.
Believe it or not, this will be the most freeing year of my life.
For many, what I described above may seem like a prison, the complete antithesis of freedom. They see the rules and regulations as inhibitions on one's own will, and therefore it is restrictive and potentially destructive. I see it differently. Rather than understanding freedom as the absence of external forces, i.e. freedom from a particular rule, I understand it as the presence of opportunity and ability to do what is right, i.e. freedom to fulfill a particular task.
What, then, do I have the freedom to do? More than any time in my life, I have the freedom to completely live in and for God. I have removed almost every "distraction" from my life, and have oriented my entire existence towards God. How could I be any more free? Seriously, what could I possibly worry about this entire year? I wake up in the morning, and my entire purpose is to grow closer in relationship with God by learning, devoting time, and listening. Community life ensures that I will be doing it in a Franciscan way.
I have to admit, though, I am a bit nervous about it all. This is entirely new to me in almost every way. No one likes change, especially when that change is as intense as this, and there are so many unknowns. But I guess that's all a part of letting go; it's not just about possessions and autonomy, it also has a lot to do with letting go of expectation that may prevent me from being completely open to the current experience. For now, we're go with what I know.
Daily Life
Unlike last year, which was "Far From Routine," this year will be very predictable and consistent. Being a "J" on the Myers Briggs test, I welcome this completely. Along with the prescribed activities of the day, I plan to add my own daily rituals. As I understand (and plan) it so far, here's what a typical day looks like:
7:15 Lectio Divina (I'm going to make a habit of getting to chapel a few minutes before prayer each day to read a Gospel passage and pray about it. There's a difference between reading the Bible academically and reading it prayerfully. As Franciscans, it's imperative that we prayerfully read the Gospel.)
7:30 Morning Prayer
Silent Meditation before Mass (For now, I think I'm going to leave this 10-15 minutes as quiet, unstructured prayer time. Too much planning doesn't leave room for the Spirit to move me.)
8:00 Mass
8:45 Breakfast
9:30 Class (this will usually last two hours and will be on a variety of topics)
11:45 Midday Prayer/ ANGELUS (This only takes about ten minutes and is a wonderful break in the day to commit oneself to prayer. The Angelus is a very Franciscan prayer as well.)
12:00 Lunch (No structure, mostly foraging for food.)
1:00 Work period (We will each be given monthly jobs and expected to work 2 hours a day. Since some are easier than others, those who finish early begin to help those still working. I guess they believe that "Idle hands are the devil's tools…)
4:00 Silent Time/Private Prayer (This can be spent a number of different ways, such as reading, studying, writing, reflecting, praying or journaling, but it must be done alone and in quiet. I think this will be a very refreshing part of the day.)
5:00 Common silent meditation in chapel (So far I've spent this time reading spiritual writings, but depending on what I do during the silent time/private prayer, I may use this time for more unstructured prayer or occasionally a devotional or the Office of Readings.)
5:30 Evening Prayer
6:00 Dinner
7:15 Recreation time (This can be spent however we please, such as working out, watching television, making phone calls, playing games, going for a walk, or listening to music, to name a few ideas. I don't plan on watching a lot of television, and will instead be spending a lot of time either in our small fitness room with the many fitness-oriented friars in our house or playing games.)
9:15 Night Prayer, followed by Grand Silence (While we have no "bedtime," the time after prayer is meant to be free from all noise, both personal and communal.)
Spiritual direction is on an appointment basis, but will probably take the place of a work period in the afternoon. On Saturdays we only have a work period in the morning, leaving us free from 1-9 to do as we please. Sundays are very solemn and relaxing, and will involve only prayer and quiet time. We've also been told that there will be retreats and workshops throughout the year, but with much less frequency than we did last year.
As of yet, I know little more than this. I wish I had more time to update everyone, but that will just have to wait until next year I guess.
Updates will be available
That being said, just because I can't use the internet and tell you about my experience doesn't mean that others won't be doing it about me (and my classmates, of course). Here are a number of ways that you can continue to follow me in my journey outside of the blog:
Franciscan Interprovincial Novitiate Facebook page: Throughout the year, our house will post pictures, news updates, and maybe even a few reflections (we'll see what I can do!) Unfortunately, you have to have Facebook to view it, but this will be the most updated media. I may or may not have been appointed photographer for this today.
HNP Today: Holy Name Province publishes a bi-weekly periodical about the happenings of the friars and their ministries. While we won't be in every issue, this will offer the most detail when special occasions occur, such as when we receive our habits. You can subscribe to this by clicking here and entering your email address.
Be A Franciscan blog for vocations: The Vocations Office of our province runs a blog that publishes articles by our friars related to their vocational call and life in the Order. A few of my posts have found their way onto this website, and there's a chance I'll write for it once or twice while I'm here. It's good to read either way.
And Finally, Thank You
This past year has been a wonderful experience writing this blog. I've enjoyed doing it, and cherish the comments I've received here and elsewhere. I will be praying for all of you, as I hope you will pray for me. I fully plan to relaunch the blog in a year, and will probably write a few reflections throughout the year to be posted when I get out. Until then, here are a few of my favorite posts that you could read again:

Sen. Fain looks for remedies in school funding
February 6, 2013 · Updated 5:25 PM
By Staci Whitehouse
For the Kent Reporter
Horizon Elementary School's PTA welcomed state Sen. Joe Fain (R-Auburn) to its January board meeting to discuss education and education funding.
Fain serves on the Early Learning and K-12 Education Committee, which considers policy and finance issues related to schools and learning from birth through 12th grade and preparation for later learning experience.
Aware that education funding is a concern for Horizon families, Fain explained to those in attendance that the state has failed to adequately fund education. Fain mentioned that state lawmakers have made a variety of proposals, including major policy changes, increasing education funding with existing revenues, as well as new forms of revenue, an increased gas tax to fund transportation projects, or a property-tax levy swap to name a few.
"We have a budget shortfall for funding education and the state Legislature is looking for consensus on how to remedy it," Fain said.
One parent expressed concern that increased funding for education would go toward administrative costs and not towards teachers and students. Horizon has seen several positions disappear in recent years, including an assistant principal, a full-time librarian and technology teacher in addition to the entire fifth grade band and orchestra program.
The underfunding of the music program concerns Horizon's music teacher Jacklyn Kellogg, who this year has a $125 annual budget for 500 students. She went on to describe how "music education helps prepare young people to think creatively, learn how to work collaboratively, and to become disciplined, critical thinkers and problem solvers. Research shows that children who receive a comprehensive, sequential music education do better in overall school achievement, social development, success in society, and earning potential.
"Times are very tight fiscally, and music education is under threat in many places. If you recognize the value music education has for your child, your continued support of this program will help ensure that music remains an essential component of your child's education. After all, music and the arts are considered a 'core' subject in the federal Elementary and Secondary Education Act. It is up to parents who are part of our school system to champion a well-rounded education where their students are given the opportunities to explore their passions and many talents."
In an effort to elevate school performance, Horizon parents were interested to learn that Fain is in favor of an incentivized system, suggesting that schools with increased graduation levels and growth rates in achievement within a certain time frame would be rewarded with additional funding. In addition, there is a push for the Early Learning and K-12 Education Committee to come up with a way to make the data teachers collect on students usable so the district can chart an individual's education aptitude k-12.
Horizon's principal, Paul Luczak, said: "In a time of polarization in our country and state, it was refreshing to hear Sen. Fain's out of the box and sensible solutions to improving education. He truly understands educators, parents and students and brings great passion and intelligence to the task of educating or 'building a brain' as he calls it. He is the kind of person who can open dialogue on either side of the political aisle."

Remembering Carmichael's "Taj Mahal" executive mansion
When Californians refer to the "governor's mansion," they are generally speaking about the Second Empire Italianate-style Victorian mansion on 16th Street, along the old Highway 40. But at times, some of these references are directed toward the historic Stanford Mansion at 800 N Street or the mansion built for this state's governors in Carmichael.
Many people in the Sacramento area recall this latter, controversial estate overlooking the American River.
It was that very mansion at 2300 California Ave. that was to solve this state's void of a permanent structure for its chief executive.
But this mansion was already a major issue of debate while it was still under construction in 1974, as Gov. Edmund G. "Jerry" Brown, Jr., during his second term in office, refused to reside in the structure.
Despite the fact that nearly every other state in the Union has a designated, permanent governor's residence, it has been 45 years since such a place has existed in California.
The French Second Empire/Renaissance Revival-style Stanford Mansion was once home to the state's eighth governor, Leland Stanford, and the following two governors, Frederick F. Low and Henry H. Haight.
The mansion on the 16th Street
And the aforementioned 16th Street mansion, which was built in 1877 for Albert Gallatin of the hardware business, Huntington, Hopkins & Co., was the home of every California state governor from 1903 to 1967.
Following the 16th Street mansion's nine decades as a residence, then-Gov. Ronald Reagan and his family became the final residents of the mansion. The Reagans moved from the mansion into a leased home in the upscale East Sacramento neighborhood, known as the Fabulous Forties.
This move occurred only four months after the Reagans moved into the 16th Street mansion.
California First Lady Nancy Reagan was dissatisfied with the structure's living conditions and declared it a "firetrap" with a neighborhood that was unsafe for small children.
The 16th Street mansion and its property, which is known today as the Governor's Mansion State Historic Park, is now recognized as one of Sacramento's most important historic sites and is a popular destination for visitors and locals seeking to learn some history through daily, guided tours.
Carmichael Mansion construction begins
Construction on the 12,000-square-foot, concrete block Carmichael mansion began during the final stretch of Gov. Reagan's second and last term in office. Contracts for the job were let in October 1974 and construction began shortly thereafter.
The mansion, which was completed in 1975, was built within 11.3 acres on the bluffs that were donated by friends of Gov. Reagan.
Brown criticizes construction
On Tuesday, Nov. 5, 1974, Brown, a then-36-year-old bachelor, was elected to replace Reagan as governor.
Brown had made it an issue in his campaign to refer to the construction of the $1.3 million, 17-room governor's residence, which Gov. Reagan was determined to have built, as an inappropriate use of funds during a recession, in which many California residents could not afford adequate housing.
Gov. Reagan, however, stressed that the construction of the Carmichael mansion was appropriate in that it would fill the void of a permanent governor's residence, and serve in this capacity for at least a century.
"It is not a residence for one particular governor," Gov. Reagan told reporters in 1974. "It is a residence for governors on down through the years, a hundred years or more."
Continuing, Reagan said, "I recognize there are some forces in Sacramento that believe the residence should not be a residence, so much as a tourist attraction downtown. I think that's unfair to anybody who occupies this job."
Brown dubbs it "Taj Mahal"
Although Brown did not take office until Jan. 6, 1975, soon after being elected governor, he continued to publicly voice his opinion and intentions regarding the construction of the governor's mansion, which was patterned after a Spanish villa.
In speaking to local reporters only two days after he was elected as the state's next chief executive, Brown said, "I have not looked at (the under construction Carmichael mansion) yet. I want to take a look at the contract and see if it is legally and economically feasible to terminate it. I certainly want to, if I can."
Brown was unable to halt the construction of the mansion, which he famously dubbed a "Taj Mahal." However, he held true to his words that he would not live in the structure, as he instead opted to make a sparsely-furnished, two-bedroom apartment at the Dean Apartments at 1400 N St. his gubernatorial home.
Others were also critical of the Carmichael mansion, which some people referred to as having the appearance of a Safeway supermarket.
The Sacramento-born writer Joan Didion called the mansion "an enlarged version of a very common kind of California tract house."
The mansion's loyal caretakers
A 1979 United Press International article, however, described two couples who were very fond of the mansion.
According to the article, Lonnie and Mildred Eastmade and Jim and Ruth Bryner were at the time dividing the monthly cost of $1,600 per month to live in and take care of the estate. The couples were responsible for security of the place, various upkeep and escorting reporters and state visitors around the mansion.
The article noted that the Eastmades and Bryners did not "take kindly to putdowns of the river bluff villa – even from Gov. Brown."
Deukmejian takes office
Unlike Brown, Gov. George Deukmejian, who served as Brown's successor from 1983 to 1991, said on multiple occasions that he wanted to reside with his family in the Carmichael mansion.
However, Senate Democrats insisted on the sale of the mansion, and on July 15, 1983, Deukmejian changed his stance on the matter and advised lawmakers that there was no need to block the sale of the Carmichael estate.
The Deukmejian administration had rejected a $1.5 million bid to purchase the mansion in June 1983.
In its Sept. 14, 1984 edition, The Sacramento Union announced that Southern California developer Matt Franich had submitted the winning bid of $1.53 million for the Carmichael mansion.
According to the article, Franich offered Deukmejian the opportunity to reside at the mansion, but Deukmejian found the $18,000 per month minimum rent payment to be too costly.
Current owners
Today, the old Carmichael mansion that was built as a governor's residence is the privately-owned home of a local physician and his wife.
Altogether the original, 11.3-acre property includes eight lots, four of which have houses. The lots for the non-governor's mansion homes were sold in 2003 and 2004.
The entire property is gated in from the street. And on a brick pillar supporting the entrance gate is a plaque bearing the Spanish name, La Casa de los Gobernadores – "The House of the Governors."
Kim Pacini-Hauch, Lyon Real Estate agent and a resident of the gated community, said that presently there is a rare opportunity for one to purchase a home within the community.
"The (available) house was built in 2007 and it's listed for sale for $1,595,000," said Pacini-Hauch, who grew up in Incline Village on the north shore of Lake Tahoe and has resided in the Sacramento area for nearly 30 years. "It's about 4,200 square feet on just a little under an acre and it (has) beautiful quality construction. There's just two (homes) here overlooking the bluff in a gated community and there's nothing like it."
And in describing her very unique neighborhood, she added, "It's just a beautiful (community). It's peaceful and quiet and it's just a lovely place to live."

This was a test. This was only a test. But Lake Wylies visit from one of the more unique medical care units in the region came with a purpose.
Carolinas MED-1 is a rolling facility that includes two 53-foot tractor trailers, almost 1,000 feet of indoor treatment space, 13 beds and a dental chair, plus a deployable tent system that could add 100 more beds and a variety of mobile services like pharmacy, lab, radiology and ultrasound.
MED-1 visited Lake Wylie on Thursday and Friday for a scenario drill to prep a whole host of workers in the event of an emergency. The unit can be deployed for a variety of reasons over vast distances. Past events include helping in the Hurricane Katrina aftermath and assisting still-damaged New Orleans-area hospitals at the following Mardi Gras, serving a community after its hospital flooded and providing extra care at crowded golf tournaments.
Its really an awesome tool, said Dr. David Callaway, medical director for MED-1.
The Lake Wylie drill comes at an important time for reviewing operations, given hurricane season and the upcoming Democratic National Convention in Charlotte. Staff within Carolinas HealthCare System have been working for more than a year on convention planning, trying to tackle their response to a variety of possible needs.
It makes you look at your operations very closely, Callaway said.
The MED-1 unit began in 2004. Possible uses include medical care during an act of terrorism, natural or other disasters, rural care, when hospitals or other facilities are damaged or during special events where large numbers of people gather, like the upcoming national convention.
Staff includes trauma surgeons, emergency physicians, paramedics, anesthesiologists, nurses and police officers, and facilities including an operating room and emergency room care. Even without an event like the convention coming, MED-1 staff of up to 100 people would gather a couple of times a year to orient new members and review protocol.
We like to get everybody used to working in the unit, working with each other, said Scott White, spokesman for Carolinas HealthCare.
The unit travels as five separate vehicles and is self-sufficient for 72 hours. A mobile emergency department with most of the capabilities youd find in a hospital, White said, MED-1 is prepared to tackle the turnout of next months convention. Thanks, in part, to one last test run for the facility unlike any other on wheels.
Nobody has one of these, Callaway said of the non-government unit. Its unprecedented for being in private hands.

I agree RC aircraft rules are a good place to start, but they are usually over ...
I agree. You are a highly insightful writer. Wayne.
Drones: A hazard to your health?
Robert Dewar
No doubt there will be an extensive debate on legitimate uses of such drones, and for sure many questions of civil liberties and police powers will be raised. Just to ask one question, the Supreme Court recently ruled that the use of GPS devices without warrants was impermissible for the purposes of tracking a car (See here). So how about following a car with a drone?
These are fascinating questions, but that's not my concern here. I will let others argue about the societal consequences and what should be permitted without warrants, or what should be permitted at all. My concern is quite different, and is focused on the issue of whether these devices are safe from an avionics point of view.
Further narrowing the point of view, I want to focus on software issues. It's not that hardware is not important, quite the contrary, but that's not my concern here (and also not my field of expertise, I will just have to trust that people who do know about the mechanical issues will also be vigilant).
The software required to operate drones is complex. Basically, these are small aircraft, often flying in tricky environments (close to buildings for example, something that is not permitted for normal aircraft). Obviously there are multiple concerns. Can we trust these drones not to crash into people or buildings? Can we trust them not to crash into commercial aircraft? Can we trust them not to crash into one another once the air becomes full of devices flown by different government agencies and various commercial interests? And from a security perspective, given that drones are controlled remotely, can we trust that the software is immune from unintentional interference and from rogue efforts to commandeer and redirect the aircraft? (This last issue is especially relevant in light of the mystery surrounding the Iranian capture of a US drone in late 2011.)
Next: Page 2
Drones should have one altitude range assigned to them, where manned flight is a keepout and is only transitional for climb or descent to manned altitudes. That altitude is also, hopefully, such that they can be used for skeet practice
Frank Eory
A recent TV show -- one of those fictional law dramas -- had an episode in which the main character shot down a police drone that was hovering over her backyard.
If drone use does become widespread over U.S. airspace, you can bet there are people who will try to use them for skeet practice!
Hardware and in particular FPGA and CPLD (firmware) also needs a critical evaluation. I have worked on real-time and embedded control systems my entire career as a software developer. While software does deserve its share of the blame for error, bugs, etc. Hardware and firmware are just as critical. The drones will need reliable high speed communication links that must stream video in real time. Will there be a requirement for collision avoidance systems? The hardware and firmware define the constraints in which the software has to operate. If the hardware or firmware is not up to the task, then it is irrational to expect the software to take up the slack. Yet, this is often what is required. All in all, this is a bad idea on multiple fronts and is just an accident waiting to happen.
The standard for hardware design already exists and is called RTCA DO-254, the question is whether it'll be part of the drone safety design requirements as it is for other aircraft.
AS a sport ultralight pilot (powered paraglider), I'd sure like to know what that altitude is. I bet that it's not looking out for me. Even a close fly-by might deflate my wing.
I have much more confidence in safety from private aviation because the pilot/owner is sitting in the thing. I am concerned about the drones falling out of the sky because someone forgot to fill them up, change the oil or check out that crack in the wing root.
As I private pilot, no one can convince me that a "pilot" sitting in an office chair at an Air Force Base will have the same concern for conflicting traffic as the pilot risking his own butt in flight.
After seeing this I have zero confidence in drones and even less in our governments concern for public safety, no that's an oxy moron huh, PUBLIC SAFETY.
The use of drones could be a hazard to the general publics safety.
A good way to explore further would be to employ these drones for border surveillance, coast monitoring, wildlife park inspection etc before deploying them in urbane environment. Irrespective of when, a clear agreement on standards which govern the development of these drones needs realization soon. The very core of aviation- Air Traffic Management, also needs to be analyzed to see how they should evolve to cope up with a multitude of platforms in the sky many of which could be these unmanned drones.
In military, with UCAVs/other Unmanned flying platforms under development and an acceptance of the plausibility of them replacing manned platforms, the push for acceptance of drones is likely to pick up as technology gets proven in the battlefield subject to customization to urbane environment.
@sandy1976 are you saying that as long as drones fly over people who don't matter they can be deployed during this development phase?
If the drone technology is perfected would we see one day individual drones to be available for purchase? Wealthy individuals will be buying them for fun, tourist explorations, spying on neighbors etc. The sky will become as full as highways today! Kris
Drones of incredible capability are available right now for a few hundred dollars and they can be operated by virtually anyone that is reading this forum. Checkout DIYdrones.com to see the open source state of the art. Today A checkbook is all that is required to own a drone.
There are rules that cover the use of radio controlled hobby aircraft. These rules have delivered acceptable safety for all. These rules should be a good baseline for drones. Some RC aircraft can be several feet long and weigh many pounds.
I agree RC aircraft rules are a good place to start, but they are usually over unpopulated areas and noted to pilots. What happens when everywhere is opened to drones? As a private pilot I'm very worried about one of those drones colliding into me.
Yes, and it was captured by technology created by www.keshefoundation.com. Listen to Sterling Allan's interview from this website. You will be amazed. Ask yourself a question: How can a drone be captured while flying at high speed, intact and so that self destruction sequence was not able to start ? I particularly liked the bit where Mr. Keshe said that F16 and F18 are obsolete. They can fly at at Mach 2 or Mach 3 at most and need refueling every two hours. Technology developed by Keshe Foundation can fly Mach 30, 40, 50 and dont need refueling. They develop their own gravity that is always 1G, so pilot don't feel the high speed. They are also undetectable in radar. I could hear Allan gasping when he heard this. This technology will be given to all governments and a demonstration will be held during this month. Iranian's are using 4th generation tech, Keshe Foundation is currently finishing testing with their 6th generation tech. Too good to be true ? Well, a US spy drone was captured while in mid air. Makes one think, yes ?
From a technical standpoint all of this is just bugs to be worked out... Our society and leaders must more importantly ask ourselves not "Could we?" but "Should we?" The U.S. has already placed itself on a very slippery slope in international relations by flying combat missions inside of other countries (yes even an unmanned but armed drone with intent to hunt/kill terrorists is involved in a combat mission) without prior permission. To allow such drones in-country may have severe ramifications for constitutional liberties and for ensuring proper processes are followed that at least maintain a semblance of justice. In many large metropolitan police departments "SWAT" teams are routinely used to "deliver subpoenas" by bashing down doors screaming in the confusion "Warrant!" and shooting anything that doesn't submit. Although the media has been relatively gentle with such news and innumerable "wrong doors" have been destroyed, and several "neighbors" have been shot dead in such erroneous actions, there remains a scary similarity with what the British were doing around 1800 to the American citizenry. What restrictions are placed upon these drones, and how those restrictions are enforced, will determine their place in history.
With respect to doors being smashed in the name of delivering a subpoena, I don't want to sound paranoid or sound like one of those survivalist guys, which I'm not, but given today's political climate, particularly taking into consideration whether or not you live on a neighborhood susceptible to this type of police action (it wouldn't and doesn't happen in affluent communities) one might want to consider installing a reinforced door or even, perhaps, a fake door that is actually a wall, with the real door located elsewhere. This sounds ridiculous, but but it is a fact that the wrong doors have been smashed down and innocent people killed. (Just watch any episode of the TV show Cops (What we now consider as normal and "acceptable" is scary.)) Unless and until Congress and/or the courts do something about this, what I'm describing may be the only practical solution short of moving to another neighborhood. Wayne.
The drones are probably no more dangerous than a typical commercial aircraft. Pilots nowadays are babysitters. Most of what they do is automated. Sometimes when this technology fails they crash because the pilot has not spent enough time actually flying the airplane. This happened a few years ago when an Airbus crashed off the coast of South America. Hopefully the lessons learned from that event will make the sky a safer place for manned and unmanned aircraft.
Air France crash had a similar problem, the plane was flying fine but its instruments went wild...the pilot got lost not knowing which indicators to trust and which not...and probably didn't have enough experience in actually flying the plane without autopilot...Kris
When you talk about high-profile passenger plane incidents you're dealing with issues like "icing over" multiple pitot tubes which louses up all the parameters coming out of the air data system. This is generally a "legacy architecture" issue, I could be wrong but I wouldn't expect to find that technology in a modern drone design when more reliable data comes from navigation data provided by the GPS and/or inertial system. But it does indicate we need to be careful we don't "mandate in" components from older designs to modern drones for collision avoidance reasons simply because these are components we have a "safety record" for from experience on piloted aircraft, awful as it may be, and rushing pell-mell towards a solution tends to increase the risk that bad decisions like this may creep into the specifications.
By downgrading the professional status of engineers, societies wordwide have lost control over who makes what.
With regard to weapons, this is A Bad Thing.
Drones are something that really should not be developed without licensing; but there is no longer any way to rein in the techies who can do this stuff.
A Drone, like an amateur radio set, shouldn't be deployed without licensing, because the potential for nuisance, nay disaster, is hugely greater.
Airspace is a public resource with risks to health and its use needs to be common-sense rationed to trained professionals, just like pharmaceuticals, medicine, guns(except in the US), high voltage electricity, poisons, biohazards (oops, already losing that one).

Sculpted through the desert and framed by distant mountain peaks, Wickenburg Country Club's 18-hole course roams across 6,320 yards of dazzling terrain. Fresh off an October 2011 overseeding, the course's fairways, greens, and tee boxes blanket the arid terrain with a thick carpet of immaculately mown grass stitched by palm trees, intervening waterways, and tumbleweeds that generously lead golfers to wayward balls. The course bounds over naturally undulating terrain that creates numerous uphill and downhill shots, which gives an advantage to players who trust their yardages and can handle sidehill lies. After rounds, players can continue honing their game at the driving range, check out golf apparel at the pro shop, or drink in views of the rolling, sandstone-hued tundra amid the adobe accents of the clubhouse patio, where clubbers can recapitulate memorable shots or interrogate each other's 9-irons about the veracity of their owners' scorecard.
Course at a Glance:
- 18-hole, par 71 course
- Length of 6,320 yards from the farthest tees
- Course rating of 70.5 from the farthest tees
- Slope rating of 128 from the farthest tees
- Three tee options
- Link to scorecard
Since hosting their first class in 1989, Arizona Climbing and Adventure School's instructors have sent an estimated 37,000 students scurrying up the earth's craggy cliffs. Instead of learning climbing in an indoor facility, participants climb nature's precipices outdoors upon the Southwest's cliffs and mountains. Adventurer and school director Mark Brontsema guides his students and fellow instructors by a philosophy that emphasizes self-reliance, goal setting, and teamwork. He now brings more than three decades to his post as school director, taking time from a busy schedule that includes writing gear reviews for the New York Times.
The school offers a large number of courses that target students of varying skill levels and reveal technique secrets in small groups of two to six students. Classes may focus on rappelling and anchors, guide services, and equipment-free bouldering, which relies solely on the climber's hands, feet, and retractable suction cups. Adventure courses include day trips and overnight climbing excursions, while special workshops address topics such as backpacking, being an ecologically responsible climber and hiker, and using GPS devices.
Hundreds of animals from around the world roam the spacious, natural habitats on Out of Africa Wildlife Park's 104 acres. Narrated tram and trolley tours of the Wildlife Preserve jaunt past gray wolves and spotted hyenas, while a 30-minute African Bush Safari travels through a 22-acre high-desert-plains habitat where sable antelopes, zebras, and asian water buffaloes roam the hillside. Caretakers, colorful toys, and brain-tickling games of chess entertain Bengal and Siberian tigers in the Tiger Splash's 35'x50' pool. Guests eager to interact with the park's critters can hold anacondas and boas at the Giant Snake Show or tag along with caretakers feeding lions and tigers with 800 pounds of raw food.
Artist and glassmaker Jim Antonius erected his studio to continue a four-decade journey with glasswork, including studies at an array of institutions and more than 900 public, private, and corporate commissions, including work for architect Frank Gehry. At the 3,000-square-foot space—located on 2 acres of land near the Prescott National Forest—Antonius and instructor Jordan Ford focus on teaching offhand glassblowing during private classes and group workshops. The studio is also available for rental and is filled with a bevy of equipment, including three annealers, saxophones for blowing practice, three marvers, and a freestanding pot furnace fueled by natural gas.

In 1906, after studying disruptions in the orbit of Uranus, Percival Lowell began to suspect the existence of a planet beyond Neptune. He referred to it as Planet X, and he scanned the night sky from his Flagstaff observatory until his death in 1916. More than two decades passed after the initial conjecture before Lowell astronomer Clyde W. Tombaugh sat down in the very same observatory and confirmed the existence of the dwarf planet Pluto.
Though Lowell and Tombaugh's planet was kicked out of the solar club in 2006, their discovery led to several decades of essential research at Lowell Observatory. The observatory's astronomers have since discovered evidence of the expanding universe and have also provided exhaustive measurements of the motions and basic properties of stars. In 2012, the nonprofit observatory became home to the Discovery Channel Telescope—the fifth largest telescope in the continental United States and currently the only one capable of observing the astronauts stranded on Neptune.

They stepped in and stepped up to fill the void that Picnik is leaving us with and I am psyched about what I've seen so far. Plus they are kinda sassy which is a lot of fun. They just might outshine their predecessor!
So to celebrate my 1 year Blogiversary (yes today it's been 1 year here with you, my lovely friends) I'm giving you a gift- a tutorial: How to Make a Blog Button the Easy-Peasy Way- with PicMonkey!
PicMonkey is easy to use and very intuitive. Let's get started.
Part I:
1. You need a blank jpeg file to upload to PicMonkey. You can download a blank file here.
2. Go to www.picmonkey.com and click on the box that says "Edit Your Photo."
3. Choose your blank jpeg file and upload it to PicMonkey.
4. On the left hand side, click on the overlays icon. It's the fifth icon down on the side.
5. Here's where you get a chance to play a bit. Scroll through the overlays and choose a sticker that you like to put on your white jpeg.
Let's go through some options.
Adding Graphics:
- To add color, add a Geometric: Choose a square and stretch the shape to completely cover the white square.
- Now change the color to suit your taste.
- Add an Icon Graphic: take a stroll through all of the graphic options such as hearts, stars, sunglasses and butterflies. Click on one you like, then change the size and color until you are satisfied.
- Keep in mind, if you are going to place text over the picture, you want to fade the picture and keep it light so you can easily read the words.
- Add a Picture Overlay: at this time, you cannot add your own graphics or pictures as an overlay. You could however, use your own picture instead of the white jpeg, as the background for your button. If so, I recommend fading your picture so the text is easier to read. See my example.
- Click on the Basic Edit icon (top of the list on the left) and choose Resize. I like to have a 175 x 175 size for blog posts and a 125 x 125 for the sidebar. 125 x 125 is a standard blog button size. You can certainly change yours to anything you like.
- Keep in mind the amount of text you place on your button. The more text you add, the harder it is to read.
- To save, simply click on the word save at the bottom of the screen and save your new button to your computer.
- At this time you cannot save to other applications such as Flickr, Photobucket or anything else. I hope this changes!

We spent a fantastic week here. The place is really well designed, with space and privacy in equal measure. The apartment was brilliant, everything we needed, including a/c in master bedroom and a balcony. The pool is just beautiful, and we spent many happy hours by it, but it never felt crowded or overlooked
And the staff - well what can I say? Just fantastic, they made us so welcome, always helpful and ready with advice if needed, and they were great with our 5 year old.
I can't recommend this place highly enough, and we want to go back there as soon as we can

I just purchased the CS3 upgrade for Windows. I used the CS3 beta and enjoyed getting a headstart on the new features. I am a bit nervous about the "real" CS3 installation though for those of us who used the beta. Adobe has on its website both a rather complex manual uninstall procedure, http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowled...fm?id=kb401492, as well as a somewhat scary "CS3clean script" http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs3clean.html with caveats about backing up one's entire hard drive prior to using it...
WARNING: Before running the CS3Clean Script, it is critical that you back up your hard drive including all data, content, software programs, etc. Failure to do so, and failure to follow the instructions below, could result in a loss of the contents of your hard drive.
I do back up my data files carefully, but do not back up the entire drive.
What have people been doing about installing the shipping version? Has anyone had a problem with the basic uninstaller? Has anyone used the manual uninstaller or the CS3clean script.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.

The public is invited to take a hike entitled "The Heart K Ranch from a Maidu perspective" with Trina Cunningham Saturday, June 23. The outing will be held on the Heart K Ranch in Genesee Valley from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Cunningham's ancestors founded the Davis Ranch (now part of Feather River Land Trust's Heart K Ranch), where Trina grew up, and her Mountain Maidu ancestors have inhabited Genesee Valley from the beginning of memory. Cunningham is a member of the Maidu Summit Consortium, composed of nine Mountain Maidu groups, with a vision of site protection and stewardship throughout the Maidu homeland.
The recently protected 900-acre Heart K Ranch in California's Genesee Valley is a Sierra Nevada treasure, boasting scenic mountain beauty and a rich historical and cultural past. It is perhaps the most species-diverse property in the Feather River watershed, supporting 26 species of conservation concern. It is also of great importance to the local Mountain Maidu people.
The unique interpretive hike is sponsored by the Feather River Land Trust to raise awareness about Maidu history and culture. The Maidu Indians of Genesee Valley are a federally unrecognized tribe. During the Gold Rush, land reservation treaties were left unratified, leaving the Maidu landless and in danger of losing cultural knowledge and practices. The Feather River Land Trust is working with Cunningham and others to protect and promote Maidu access to land and to incorporate Maidu traditional ecological knowledge into managing the Heart K Ranch.
This summer, with a TogetherGreen grant from Toyota and National Audubon Society, Feather River Land Trust is partnering with Plumas Audubon Society and the Maidu Summit Consortium to plan stewardship and restoration activities on the Heart K Ranch that incorporate Maidu traditional ecological knowledge.
There is no charge for the hike. However, the land trust will be accepting donations to support the management of the Heart K Ranch and to compensate Cunningham for her time and expertise. The Feather River Land Trust is a private, nonprofit organization founded by residents of the Feather River region.
Meet at the Heart K Ranch house at 10 a.m. and be sure to bring lunch and water. The Heart K Ranch is approximately 15 miles from the intersection of Highway 89 and A22 (aka the Taylorsville "T"). Follow A22 to Taylorsville (five miles) and bear right onto Genesee Road for nine miles until you see the big red barn on the left. Parking is available to the left of the ranch house. The ranch is located at 702 Beckwourth Genesee Road in Taylorsville.
For more information contact Karen Kleven at the Feather River Land Trust, 283-5758 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
