EP Solar
EPSolar Charge Controllers
EPS is an innovative manufacturer who have designed solar charge controllers that work perfectly with the new value priced 60 cell solar panels like the SF-225 and SM-265MC. Their advantages for Canadian cabin owners include a greater harvest - from 15 to 25% over traditional PWM controllers. They do this my pulling the power off the panel at it maximum power point, instead of the battery voltage. They convert this power to 12 or 24V output through a high efficiency DC-DC conversion algorithm. Net result - more energy to the batteries.
10 years ago 60 cell modules needed very expensive MPPT charge controllers like the Outback FM-60s or Morningstar Tri-Star MPPT series. The EPS Tracer series are lower cost options which have enabled the use of the lower cost 60 and 72 cell modules in smaller solar systems. Now a single 60 cell solar panel can be used with a single charge controller like the EPS-MPPT-20, and offer not just the extra power from MPPT tracking, but digital metering as well. Larger systems with 2 or 4 panels can use the 30 and 40 amp versions.
Tracer A Series Charge Controllers
Trace A Series are MPPT charge controllers that work with 36, 60 and 72 cell solar panels. Maximum Power Point Tracking gets more energy from traditional panels by using all of their potential. A Series feature a digital metering display and are ideal for ungrounded 12 or 24V systems,
XTRA-N Charge Controllers
The new XTRA-N Series Charge Controllers feature high efficiency power conversion to take high voltage solar inputs and rapidly charge 12 or 24V batteries. With negative grounding the are ideal for RV, cottage and industrial systems. The full feature digital display on the 30 and 40 amp models includes battery state of charge metering, and input/output current and voltage. For solar systems up to 1000W
Tracer BN Series
Tracer BN Series allow you to use 3 solar panels in series with a 150VDC input. Solar panels can be further away and wiring costs are kep low with high voltage, low current. Plus the BN have cETL code approvals. Use for industrial and residential systems. Optional MT-50 display offers remote metering.

A first look at Native Foods
By MALACHI VINACCIA
I recently decided to check out Hyde Park's new vegan spot, Native Foods Café. As I entered, I noticed the vibe was very inviting and happy. The first employee I met was very polite and greeted me with a smile as I walked up to the register. While looking around, I noticed that the furniture was very nice and the lighting was just right. I decided to get Da Bears Platter with an order of sweet potato fries. The platter came with Scorpion Burgers, Meatball Subs, Native Chicken Wings, and Chips and Salsa. As soon as I bit into the Native Chicken wings, I was amazed to find that it tasted like chicken and didn't have that rubbery texture most "meat" has. The wings had a crispy outer layer with a soft inside which gave it a more delectable taste to it. Sadly, I was a bit disappointed with the Scorpion Burgers because they were plain and didn't really taste like a burger; more like a salad. The meatball subs were great, something I would definitely get again; the sandwiches tasted just like they had real meatballs in it! Finally, the sweet potato fries were perfect, the seasoning was on point, and I don't usually like sweet potato fries either; perfect for a snack on the go!

As we draw closer to Christmas I feel it is OK to continue making my Christmas cards - yes I've been doing this all year using the Christmas selection from the Annual Catalogue, and now I'm enjoying the gorgeous products from the Stampin' Up!® Holiday Catalogue.
Today I've used the Pretty Pines Thinlits Dies to create a quick card. I love the fancy finish of the pine cone, cut using my Big Shot and Gold Foil Paper. It has been adhered over the top of a Cherry Cobbler die cut pine cone using the Fine-Tip Glue Pen.
The fine detail of the Pine leaves is gorgeous and so versatile. Imagine using these lovely leaves behind posies of flowers cut using other Stampin' Up! dies. I used Garden Green card stock for these leaves.
The layout of the card is simple:
1 card base (landscape orientation) Thick White Card
1 strip of Crumb Cake 14.9 x 8.5 cm
1 strip of patterned DSP 14.9 x 7.5 cm
1 strip of Whisper White (the very best choice for stamping on) 14.9 x 6.0 cm
Remember to distress the edges of the Crumb Cake and Whisper White, arrange the die cut elements leaving room for your greeting and adhere everything to the base card. Use Fast Fuse for the card layers and Fine Tip Glue Pen for the finer elements.
The complete card:
The bow is made from retired Cherry Cobbler Seam Binding but you can easily substitute Real Red behind the Pine Cone and use Real Red 1 cm Stitched Satin Ribbon for the bow.
If you would like to purchase any of these products you can do so via my on-line store (if you live in Australia or its Territories)
If you are looking for a part or full time job, working from home and at your own pace, AND you love craft, then becoming a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator will be of interest to you.

Uruguay : 30th Anniversary of ICAO
Issue date: 17/10/1977
Globe, aircraft and UN emblem.
With watermark inverted ROU (Republica Oriental del Uruguay) within a sun. The official country name Republica Oriental del Uruguay indicates that the Republic lies east of the River Uruguay.
The article de is missing in ICAO's Spanish name, which should be written Organización de Aviación Civil Internacional.
First Day Cover with silhouette of possibly a Douglas DC-8 or Boeing 707 aircraft on the cachet. The error in the Organization's name is repeated on the cachet.
Other first day cover showing the Uruguayan flag on the contours of the country.
Other first day covers by EDIC. C.F.U.
This FDC shows the map of the country.
The cachet here-below reproduces Uruguay's first Diligencia stamp and makes reference to the times when communication was carried on by means of mail coaches. More details here-below.
The postmark cancel shows UPU's emblem and the date: 9 October 1978 (i.e. World Post Day). The cachet depicts the coat of arms on the contours of the country.
The Coat of Arms of Uruguay was first adopted by law on 19 March 1829. It consists of an oval, which is divided into four equal sections and crowned by a rising golden sun, the Sun of May, symbolizing the rising of the Uruguayan nation. The oval is surrounded by two olive branches, representing peace, joined at the bottom by a blue ribbon. In the upper left quarter, there is a scale, symbol of equality and justice, set on a blue background. The upper right quarter contains the Cerro de Montevideo (Montevideo Hill) with its fortress on the summit, which represents strength, on a silver background. In the lower left, also on a silver background, there is a galloping horse, symbolizing liberty. The lower right quarter holds an ox, which is a symbol of abundance, on a blue background.
The National Flag of Uruguay was officially adopted on 11 July 1830 and is described as follows: nine equal horizontal stripes of white (top and bottom) alternating with blue; a white square in the upper hoist-side corner with a yellow sun bearing a human face known as the Sun of May with 16 rays that alternate between triangular and wavy. The Sun of May has been used as a national symbol since the 19th century. The nine blue and white stripes represent the nine departments within the country.
The first stamps issued in Uruguay were ordered by the Administrator General of Posts, Atanasio Lapido, who also happened to be in charge of the stage coach service. They could be considered as a private issue, but must have had official status. The inscription "Diligencia" means "Stage coach" and indicates the means of transporting of the mail. They were only valid for mail within Uruguay. Picturing a radiant sun, the 60-centavos blue stamp shown here was used for single-page letters. The postal services organized by the stagecoach companies started issuing stamps on 1 October 1856.

Owners of the Morro Bay Power Plant and its towering triple smokestacks—a landmark to some, a destructive eyesore to others—recently announced they are shutting the facility down in February, but there's a good chance residents will still be talking about it for a while after.
The controversial facility has been hard on the environment and at the center of a debate over what to do with it in light of regulations adopted by the State Water Resources Control Board in 2010. The plant is near two marine sanctuaries that protect the Morro Bay Estuary and is a striking image in an otherwise serene landscape.
The rules require power plants that withdraw and return marine water, in what's called once-through cooling, to stop doing that. The 19 affected plants must also install equipment to reduce their impact on marine life. Once-through cooling is responsible for killing 2.6 million fish, 19 billion fish larvae and dozens of sea lions, seals, sea turtles and other creatures every year.
They must either convert to a less destructive process or shut down. The Morro Bay Power Plant is the only one among the 19 plants deemed not needed by the state.
Josh Friedman at Cal Coast News added a new wrinkle to the ongoing plant saga when he reported this week that the State Lands Commission is investigating the city for allegedly misusing around $5 million it received from the plant since 2005. The newspaper said that $525,000 annual payments from plant owner Dynegy Energy Co. made their way to the city's general fund although the city's own website clearly states, "Under the Tidelands Grant Statute, all revenues received from the Tidelands must be used for operation and improvement of the tidelands."
Sheri Pemberton, commission chief of external affairs, told Cal Coast News that her agency had been looking into the matter since 2011.
The tidelands bordering Morro Bay were granted by the Legislature to San Luis Obispo County in 1947. The city became owner in 1964 when it incorporated. The grant gives the city leeway in contracting with private companies that use the tidelands, and it receives about $1.5 million a year in compensation.
The money is meant to flow into the Harbor Operating Fund, according to Cal Coast News, which is responsible for maintenance and improvement of the tidelands. But beginning in fiscal year 2005-06, the annual payment for the plant owner wound up in the city's general fund instead.
The shutdown of the antiquated natural-gas-fired plant was not totally unexpected. The Houston-based owner is mired in bankruptcy and its contract with the state was cancelled in May 2012. It has been selling electricity in the short-term "day-ahead" market, while fending off environmentalists and state regulators.

Uwakwe pledges to reposition NECO
Registrar/Chief Executive of National Examinations Council (NECO), Charles Brommeo Uchenna Uwakwe, has assured that his leadership will spearhead efforts that would spur the council's attainment of international status.
In a chat with newsmen in Minna, Niger State shortly after the recent release of the June/July 2016 Senior School Certificate Examinations (SSCE), his first assignment in that capacity, Uwakwe said he would achieve this by improving and upholding the standard already set by his predecessors.
He pledged that his administration would not do anything that would lower the standard, but rather continue to maintain the values for which the council is reputed for.
Commending the council's item writers, examiners and external monitors for their valued support and partnership with the council, the Professor of Counselling and Health Psychology added: "This has contributed in no small measure to the acceptance of NECO result by institutions of higher learning in Nigeria and the rest of the world."
He further disclosed that in line with the Federal Government's determination to stamp out corruption and impunity in the civil service, his leadership has come up with new ethos that will guide the council in all its operations.
"The ethos includes professionalism, service delivery, punctuality, client satisfaction, precise and accurate information, good attitude, integrity, commitment, zero tolerance for impunity and excellence. Permit me to use this opportunity to solicit for support from all our stakeholders especially from members of the press. NECO should be seen as a Nigerian baby that requires the care and support of all, to enable her attain that first class international status.
"I must commend the indefatigable NECO staff. You are civilians dressed in military psyche. I appreciate your alertness, commitment, sacrifice and your resourcefulness, which has resulted in NECO making her mark in the global assessment industry. I implore you to continue with your good work as our partnership has helped in the realisation of NECO's mandate as it concerns global awareness," Uwakwe stated.

When I was writing yesterday's blog post I didn't realize that the Amnesty International report I referred to had already been published. It's called 'Struggle for Maternal Health: Barriers to Antenatal Care in South Africa'. It is quite extraordinary that such a lengthy report about maternal health can fail to mention safety, unsafe healthcare, healthcare transmitted infections and the like.
But the report puts the cards on the table on page 21: "Heterosexual sexual intercourse is the main cause of HIV transmission in South Africa." The South African 'National Strategic Plan' is cited in support of this contention, and that document doesn't really support the claim at all, although it's clear that it comes from the usual documents from the usual normative agencies.
Normative agencies such as UNAIDS, WHO and others make guesstimates of the proportion of HIV transmission that can be attributed to male to male sex, intravenous drug use, commercial sex work and various heterosexual 'groups' (who are never very clearly defined). The minute figure that remains, 1-2%, is attributed to healthcare transmission of HIV.
But as yesterday's blog (and other data on the Don't Get Stuck With HIV site and blog) show, there are numerous types of healthcare transmission of HIV, including antenatal care, invasive forms of contraception, blood tests, donations and transfusions, child delivery, injections, surgery and many others.
Amnesty and others go on about stigma, the need for privacy, lack of information and poor public transport for pregnant women. But the stigma is not very surprising: if a HIV negative man constantly hears that the virus is primarily transmitted through heterosexual sex and that his wife is HIV positive, or that his child is, he is not being irrational in believing that his wife has been having sex with someone else.
Rather, he is misinformed. Misinformed by the likes of UNAIDS, WHO and, it seems, Amnesty International. Neither the woman nor the man are told that HIV may have been transmitted through some non-sexual route, perhaps even through unsafe healthcare. This is an especially important mode of transmission in the case of HIV positive infants whose mothers are negative, or HIV positive mothers whose partners are negative.
The closest Amnesty International's report gets to the issue of unsafe healthcare is where they recommend "[paying] particular attention to the need to develop, resource and implement programmes to address the underlying determinants of health that promote safe pregnancies and deliveries." [my italics] But there is little or nothing in the body of the report indicating that unsafe healthcare may be an underlying determinant in much of the morbidity and mortality among women, infants and children.
The report does talk to healthcare users and providers and there are some useful findings. People are not given clear, complete or even accurate information a lot of the time. Healthcare workers often lie or withhold vital information and they may even be ignorant of certain matters themselves.
Antenatal care provision may be lacking in South Africa, but the country has one of the highest figures for women giving birth in a health facility among all the high HIV prevalence African countries. It also has one of the highest figures for deliveries being attended by a skilled health provider.
In other words, high HIV prevalence countries tend to be those with better antenatal care indicators, rather than worse. Amnesty also reports on transport, but transport infrastructure is more developed in SA and other high HIV prevalence countries than it is in East and central Africa, where HIV prevalence is also lower.
Amnesty International did not seem to question these phenomena, despite the fact that they have noticed that HIV prevalence is high in SA, especially in the areas they did their research (KwaZulu Natal and Mpumalanga), also that maternal morbidity and mortality are much higher among HIV positive than HIV negative women.
Had they questioned the often cited but never demonstrated reflex 'heterosexual intercourse is the main cause of HIV transmission', they might also have tried to find out if health professionals may be hiding behind patient confidentiality and privacy and deliberately avoiding testing partners of HIV positive women because they wouldn't want anyone to suspect that unsafe healthcare can be responsible for transmitting HIV.
These both look like conflicts of interest for healthcare providers, between informing HIV positive people how they or those they care for may have been infected and avoiding the suspicion that unsafe healthcare can result in transmission of HIV, hepatitis, bacterial infections and other pathogens (including TB, ebola and anything else going around in hospitals).
South African's constitution holds that healthcare should be of 'good quality' and that citizens have the right to the highest attainable standard of health. Unless health facilities are safe places, increasing access to healthcare may be counterproductive and expose people to avoidable illness and injury. Unless healthcare personnel are enabled to provide safe healthcare, training and retraining them may be similarly counterproductive.
A well funded and experienced human rights NGO such as Amnesty International must go beyond the corporate mythmaking of normative agencies, the views of people constantly bombarded with misinformation and prejudice about HIV transmission, and health professionals who are either ignorant about healthcare transmission or who wish to protect their profession from suspicion of infecting patients.

Michael Viner, a publisher who specialized in audio books and earned a reputation for quick hits with sensational stories, including O.J. Simpson trial figure Faye Resnick's book about Nicole Brown Simpson, died of cancer Saturday at his Beverly Hills home. He was 65.
His death was announced by a spokesperson for Phoenix Books Inc., a company that Viner founded in 2005.
Viner, a former music and television producer, launched himself into a fledgling audio publishing industry in 1985 when he and his then-wife, actress Deborah Raffin, opened Dove Books-on-Tape in the garage of their Coldwater Canyon home.
The company found success with a mix of high- and low-brow titles, from Sidney Sheldon's bestseller "The Naked Face" to physicist Stephen W. Hawking's opus on the cosmos, "A Brief History of Time," which was Dove's first big hit.
"He was a hard-driving, dedicated proponent of the audio book industry" who contributed to its early growth, said Janet Benson, president of the Audio Publishers Assn.

Cayman's 8-Under team won the Gold Division Championship and the 10-U team were Silver Division Champions and bronze winners in the Gold Division at the North American Roller Hockey Championships, held from July 13-20 in Estero, Florida.
The Cayman Islands brought five teams to the championships, where hockey teams from across the U.S., Canada, France and Colombia reached the tournament through 10 regional qualifiers held through the year.
Cayman teams participated in qualifying rounds in North Carolina in April and Georgia in May, earning their place at the finals in four divisions.
10-U Mites
The 10-U Mites kicked off the tournament on July 12, doubling up in both the top Gold Division and the Silver Division.
In the Gold Division, after tight games with only a one goal spread with the Alkali Blast from Missouri and the Junior Gladiators from Georgia, the Cayman team advanced to the bronze medal final, where they posted a decisive 7-4 victory over the Gladiators to take the bronze medal.
With games packed back-to-back with the Gold games, the Mites went undefeated against teams from Florida, Georgia, New York, Pennsylvania, Missouri, Colorado and Colombia in the Silver Division, taking home the Championship Cup in this division.
Jaxon Cover and Kaden Hiryok earned MVP awards for top points and most saves in the Silver Division. Cayman was also well represented in the Skills Competition, with Molly Kehoe taking home the award for fastest skater, and Kaden Hiryok for top goalie in the Silver Division.
8-U Atom Division
Next up was the 8-U Atom Division. With the continued growth in the hockey program at Kings Sports Centre, Cayman had enough depth to field two teams at the tournament. Both teams played well against teams from Florida and Georgia.
After a tough 4-10 loss to the Atlanta Bulldogs in the preliminary rounds, the team came back strong against the same team in the Gold Division final, winning 7-3 and taking the Championship Cup.
"This is an amazing result, as it's Cayman's first Gold Cup win in the Gold Division," organizers said in a press release. "The 8-U squad only lost one game out of 14 games abroad this year, [so] the future looks very bright.
"While Cayman's younger B-team did not earn a medal in the tournament, they gained valuable experience and will be well prepared for next season, when some of the top 8 and under players move up to the Mites."
Jaxon Cover, who played in both the Mite and Atom Divisions, won the fastest skater award in the Atom skills competition and the 8-U MVP award.
Other teams
The 12-U Squirt team played some tough games in a very competitive field with teams from Florida, Georgia and Colombia. The Squirts played the Tour Lizard Kings from Georgia in the Club final to take the silver medal in the club division.
Cayman also fielded a 6-U Cub team at the tournament, another testament to the development of the program at Kings, organizers said. The Cubs lost a tough game to the Downington Cobras from Pennsylvania in the final to take the silver medal. Many of these young players will move up to the Atom division next year. Six-year-old Kameron Hiryok, in particular, had a great tournament, organizers said.
Head coaches Dennis Passchier and Patrick Cover said they are thrilled with the results that made this the most successful year for the program to date.
"The program has really grown over the last three years, and we are finally seeing great results from all the hard work put in by coaches, players and parents," the coaches said in a press release.
Kings will host a hockey camp the week of Aug. 8, and the hockey league will kick off again in late September.

I stared with a neutral colored Jillibean Soup alpha. I ran the alphas face down though a Xyron Sticker maker. This makes adheing the glitter to the front of the alphas a snap.
Once the alphas are covered with glitter I sealed them with Crystal Lacquer. Crystal Lacquer is very similar to Diamond Glaze. This step helps hold the glitter in place but isn't necessary.
This is how my glittered alphas look on my layout.
You know that saying there is more than one way to skin a cat. This applies to to glittering alphas as well. While I prefer the Xyron sticker maker method you can achieve this same look from any number of simpler techniques.
Thanks for stopping by today and happy crafting!

Kinc breaks 3DMark 05 world record again
The famous Swedish overclocker Kinc, has once again broken the world record in 3DMark 05, this time with a Radeon HD 2900 XT CrossFire rig. The system consisted of two Asus Radeon HD 2900 XT cards, overclocked to 880MHz for the core and 1,980MHz for the memory, an Intel Core 2 Extreme X6800 at 5,431MHz, a pair of Corsair 6400C3 memory modules and an Asus P5W64 WS Pro motherboard.
Kinc reached no less than 34,126 points in 3DMark 05 and you can check out the official score here. Kinc doesn't think he's reached the limit of the Radeon HD 2900 XT's yet and it seems like his next aim is to break the 35,000 barrier.
We brought a pair of ASUS Radeon HD 2900 XT to DreamHack Summer 2007 for overclocking and perhaps trying to set some new records, however the cards did not cooperate back then. It's a shame to give up on a product with such potential so Kinc decided to give it another go and this time the cards played along nicely.
You can read the full story here and take a look at some screen shots.

This, and many other essays by Brueggemann can be found here: http://www.sunflower.com/~uman/
Walter Brueggemann's 19 Theses
2004 Emergent Theological Conversation
All Souls Fellowship, Decatur, GA.
1. Everybody lives by a script. The script may be implicit or explicit. It may be recognized or unrecognized, but everybody has a script.
2. We get scripted. All of us get scripted through the process of nurture and formation and socialization, and it happens to us without our knowing it.
3. The dominant scripting in our society is a script of technological, therapeutic, consumer militarism that socializes us all, liberal and conservative.
4. That script (technological, therapeutic, consumer militarism) enacted through advertising and propaganda and ideology, especially on the liturgies of television, promises to make us safe and to make us happy.
5. That script has failed. That script of military consumerism cannot make us safe and it cannot make us happy.
6. Health for our society depends upon disengagement from and relinquishment of that script of military consumerism.
7. It is the task of ministry to de-script that script among us. That is, to enable persons to relinquish a world that no longer exists and indeed never did exist.
8. The task of de-scripting is accomplished by a steady, patient, intentional articulation of an alternative script.
9. The alternative script is rooted in the Bible and is enacted through the tradition of the Church. It is an offer of a counter-narrative, counter to the script of technological, therapeutic, consumer militarism.
10. That alternative script has as its most distinctive feature, its key character – the God of the Bible whom we name as Father, Son, and Spirit.
11. That script is not monolithic, one dimensional or seamless. It is ragged and disjunctive and incoherent. Partly it is ragged and disjunctive and incoherent because it has been crafted over time by many committees. But it is also ragged and disjunctive and incoherent because the key character is illusive and irascible in freedom and in sovereignty and in hiddenness, and, I'm embarrassed to say, in violence – a huge problem for us.
12. The ragged, disjunctive, and incoherent quality of the counter-script to which we testify cannot be smoothed or made seamless. (I think the writer of Psalm 119 would probably like to try to make it seamless.) When we do that the script gets flattened and domesticated. (This is my polemic against systematic theology.) The script gets flattened and domesticated, and it becomes a weak echo of the dominant script of technological, consumer militarism. Whereas the dominant script of technological, consumer militarism is all about certitude, privilege, and entitlement, this counter-script is not. Thus care must be taken to let this script be what it is, which entails letting God be God's irascible self.
13. The ragged, disjunctive character of the counter-script to which we testify invites its adherents to quarrel among themselves in ways that detract from the main claims of the script and so debilitate the focus of the script.
14. The entry point into the counter-script is baptism. Whereby we say in the old liturgies, "do you renounce the dominant script?"
15. The nurture, formation, and socialization into the counter-script with this illusive, irascible character is the work of ministry. We do that work of nurture, formation, and socialization by the practices of preaching, liturgy, education, social action, spirituality, and neighboring of all kinds.
16. Most of us are ambiguous about the script; those with whom we minister and I dare say, those of us who minister. Most of us are not at the deepest places wanting to choose between the dominant script and the counter-script. Most of us in the deep places are vacillating and mumbling in ambivalence.
17. This ambivalence between scripts is precisely the primary venue for the Spirit. Ministry is to name and enhance the ambivalence that liberals and conservatives have in common that puts people in crisis and consequently that invokes resistance and hostility.
18. Ministry is to manage that ambivalence that is crucially present among us in generative faithful ways in order to permit relinquishment of the old script and embrace of the new script.
19. The work of ministry is crucial and pivotal and indispensable in our society precisely because there is no one except the church and the synagogue to name and evoke the ambivalence and to manage a way through it. The role of ministry then is as urgent as it is wondrous and difficult.

43. The Devil Cat
Released May 2014
"Only we could get lost in the English countryside and find ourselves trapped in The Wicker Man!"
While on vacation in England, detective Tony Peterson and the witch Cassandra visit Tony's estranged cousin Lord Trent Malkin and his wife Ruby. The two couples team up to investigate the disappearance of a maid from the manor and a series of murders by an ancient cat cult. Complicating things are hostile villagers, an unfriendly vicar and amateur sleuth, Miss Emma Simon.
Who can be trusted in the village of Little Bascombe? And if the legend of a Devil Cat wandering the countryside in search of souls to devour is true, are Tony and Cassandra about to face the greatest threat of their lives?

TORONTO, CANADA--(Marketwire - Feb. 27, 2009) - Canadian General Investments, Limited (the Company) (TSX:CGI)(TSX:CGI.PR.B)(TSX:CGI.PR.C)(LSE:CGI) has declared an "estimated" regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.06 per share payable on March 15, 2009 to common shareholders of record at the close of business on March 11, 2009.
The dividend is being filed with the TSX as an "estimated dividend" as a result of a dividend payment restriction contained in the Company's Class A, Series 2 and Series 3 Preference Share provisions. This restriction provides that the Company shall not pay a dividend on its common shares unless after giving effect thereto, the ratio of its Assets to Obligations (both as defined in the Preference Share provisions) exceeds 2.5 times. Although the coverage ratio as at the close of business on February 27, 2009 was approximately 2.6 times, as a result of market conditions, it is not certain at today's date whether the Company will still meet the coverage requirement on March 15, 2009.
The Company will make a further announcement regarding payment prior to March 15, 2009. In the event that payment of the common share dividend is deferred, the dividend will be paid to registered shareholders as of the original record date at such later time as the Company determines that it can properly be paid.

Thomas Lee Bridegroom left his Indiana home to travel to LA in 2004 hoping to realize his dreams. He quickly gained popularity hosting MTV's The X Effect in 2007 and starred in a number of commercials. Tom was also lucky enough to find himself in a long term relationship with Shane Bitney Crone, an actor and social media consultant. The couple started a business together in 2006 and also held a joint mortgage, but they never married or got around to writing their living wills. After all, the pair, in their mid-twenties, planned on having a long future together. But cruel fate had other ideas. On May 7, 2011, Tom tragically fell from a four story roof while photographing a model for a project. He subsequently died. Their failure to protect themselves would cost Tom's partner Shane dearly.
Here is Shane and Tom's story:
According to this memorial page Tom and Shane's closest friends did, a month after Tom's death, hold their own memorial service where Shane was able to participate and talk about his partner Tom and all the memories they made together.

The Big Payback
The Nashville Jazz Workshop is proud to be part of the Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee's The Big Payback Event - a day of giving back to local nonprofits on May 2. It's a great way for individuals and foundations to easily find and contribute to worthy causes - and to put Nashville on the map for charitable giving!
Here's how it works: For 24 hours, from Wednesday, May 2 at 12am to 12 midnight, donors can make online gifts to participating nonprofits throughout Middle Tennessee, including the Jazz Workshop. Gifts will be amplified by prizes and incentives. The goal is to raise the community's awareness of the work we do, and gain the support of new donors to help support great jazz in the area.
The Nashville Jazz Workshop is asking our many supporters to help by:
* Donating online on May 2
* Spreading the word to your friends and associates, and encouraging them to donate.
Our goals for this campaign are to raise new dollars and gain new donors.
The Big Payback also offers special incentives and prizes for the most dollars raised and the most contributions in several time periods during the day. We're targeting the lunch hour, from 11am to 1pm to compete for the a prize for the most donors and the largest donation amount. So please be ready to give during that time spread the word to your friends and associates!
With your help, we can raise much-needed funds and raise awareness at the same time!

This movie documents the guitarist's pair of July 2016 shows at the Pompeii Amphitheater in the ancient Roman city, where his former band Pink Floyd played 45 years prior for their own Live at Pompeii film.
These concerts were the first-ever rock performances staged at the ancient amphitheatre, which was built in 90 B.C. and entombed in ash by the eruption of Vesuvius in A.D. 79. This makes Gilmour the only performer to play to audiences in the arena for almost 2,000 years – since the time of the gladiators.


text: http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,3959,742734,00.asp By Caron Carlson December 3, 2002 For the second year running, the federal government has flunked Computer Security 101. The 24 major agencies of the U.S. government performed so poorly this year that lawmakers charged with overseeing government efficiency want to tie agencies' funding to network security procedures and force them to buy software only from a list of "qualified" products. Despite the redoubled attention to security since the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, 14 of 24 federal agencies flat out flunked their efforts to improve network safety, according to the Computer Security Report Card released last month by the House Subcommittee on Government Efficiency, Financial Management and Intergovernmental Relations. This fall, the subcommittee concluded that every major agency in the federal government houses significant network security weaknesses. Perhaps most worrisome, some agencies--including some that conduct highly confidential activity--fared even worse than they did a year ago. The National Aeronautic & Space Administration's score fell to a D-plus from a C-minus, and the Department of State's score fell to an F from a D-plus. The scores are based on numerous criteria, including employee training, access controls, incident reporting procedures, system software, mechanisms to ensure the security of contractor services, and the use of performance measures, among other things. The data comes from reports that the agencies send to the Office of Management and Budget and audits conducted by inspectors general and the General Accounting Office. Demonstrating the paradox of trying to promote improved security via public disclosure, the subcommittee declined to release detailed evaluations of each agency. "With computer security, it is not necessarily in the best interest of everybody to identify specific problems," an aide on the subcommittee said. "The agencies know, and they are the people who need to get going on this." The Social Security Administration made the highest grade this year, rising to a B-minus from last year's C-plus. "[T]he Social Security Administration continues to be a shining example of sound leadership and focused attention toward solving this important problem," subcommittee chairman Stephen Horn, R-Calif., said upon disclosing the grades. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission earned the third highest grade this year with a "C," which does not appear remarkable until viewed in comparison with last year's failing grade. In addition to tying funding to computer security, the government should set minimum security standards for commercial off-the-shelf software purchased by federal agencies, the subcommittee recommended in a report titled "Making Federal Computers Secure: Overseeing Effective Information Security Management." The panel suggested that agencies be given a list of qualified software products, based on tests by developers or by an independent government agency, such as NIST or the National Security Agency. "The current practice of releasing software without adequate security testing and then developing patches to fix vulnerabilities creates an untenable burden on Government systems administrators," the subcommittee complained in the report. Lawmakers noted that the White House's Office of Management and Budget began using funding to try to improve computer security last year. OMB, which is requiring agencies to identify weaknesses and submit plans for addressing them, plans to end funding IT projects that don't include security requirements. In the past year, there have been significant attacks on federal computers at the White House, the Pentagon and the Department of Treasury, among others. Lawmakers advised that senior managers pay more attention to network security and promote better education within the ranks. They also suggested that all departments implement performance measures and integrate security into their budget planning. The subcommittee was chaired by Horn, who is retiring at the end of this session, so it remains unknown whether there will be a Computer Security Report Card compiled in 2003. - ISN is currently hosted by Attrition.org To unsubscribe email majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe isn' in the BODY of the mail.

As the shortest candidate in the 2004 U.S. Presidential contest, Butternut O'Day enjoyed a distinct view of the political process. During her all-too-brief campaign, Butternut corresponded with dozens of business professionals, retailers, service providers, journalists, public personalities and civic leaders.
While the resulting letters expose Butternut's naiveté about Presidential politics (as well as sportfishing, air travel, Botox, boxing, and many other subjects), they also capture a singular moment in the history of the United States by answering numerous provocative questions. Can a wee person (3'9") run for President? Can a wee person (3'9") be taken seriously? Can a wee person (3'9") find a Presidential suite at Motel 6?
Wee, The People: Long Letters from a Short Presidential Candidate is Butternut's endeavor to keep alive the belief that one person--no matter how tall or short, thin or plump, young or old, skilled or untrained--can make a difference in the world.

I will be Cyborg.
Well, we will see. But for now...
I am approaching 50 (in 1.5 years) and my eyes are shot (I'm very near sighted). The screen is blurry (I have transitional bi-focals, so my "clear" view is pretty marginal) and isn't going to get any better.
So, if my eyes sight starts to quickly wane (my eye doctor isn't really concerned... yet), what do I do?
While I can use magnifying glasses for my circuit work (which starting to become a thing of the past for me anyway), what about my programming and computer science stuff (i.e. my screen work)?
I'm a programmer and technologist. I can hack something together to supplement my poor vision. Even if I were to go blind (that isn't currently in the cards, but who knows), there are ways to continue to do "Computer Science".
There is technology already out there, and I can always invent what I need to aid me if my eyesight worsens.
Sometimes I forget that, with software and some gadgetry, we invent whatever we need. We are indeed sorcerers and alchemists :)

Tri-focals sure do the trick for me. The middle range is perfect for the computer. Charley.

I've been tempted to go with those. I may take the dive!
if you can afford them: progressive lenses; varlilux is a good brand.
I started at 46 to need 1.0 for computer work, so I choose fixed lenses then; last year ( I'm 53 now) I decided that I had enough of having a stack of fixed lens glasses of different dioptres ( ranging from 1.5 for far sight to 2.5 for computer work and 3.5 for close reading ) and opted for a special deal on two sets of progressive lenses; one for sun glasses and the other clear; I had no problems at all getting used to the lenses. Hopefully this set will last a few years as one ages the eyesight rate deterioration decreases, stabilising around 65. Anyhow, thought I'd share my eyesight experience ;-)

In Praise of Shadows
While I was interning at BCMH I helped work on graphics for the exhibition, In Praise of Shadows at the V&A. This included designing the net for the lit captions. Photos taken by BCMH.

To Do, To Do…So Much To Do
I'm a big fan of Patrick McManus. For those who don't know, he's an outdoor humorist who has written several books – all of which are hilarious and I highly recommend. Anyway, one of my favorite stories of his is called "Worry Box". In it, he explains how we all have an worry box that remains constantly occupied. When a worry is removed, one immediately replaces it, meaning there are a never-ending supply of worries for everyone's box.
I have a similar theory about to-do's. My mental list remains constantly full. The past year has been amazing. I've started to sell art somewhat successfully around the city, which has always been a dream of mine. I passed Calculus 2, landed an amazing new internship, a story about a past relationship of mine was made into a verse of a song on a pretty successful local hip-hop album, I got a dog and I got a stellar girlfriend. Not a bad year. YET, I've accomplished very little in terms of this site.
And for that, I apologize. I still love to blog, but it seems like it gets so easily lost in the hustle and bustle of everyday life. However, I have not stopped blogging. I still try to put out at least one post every few weeks, and I have lots I want to work on in terms of the site's organization.
This leads me to 2 things. First, subject matter. Since this site started in 2006ish, I have maintained that it is a tech-related blog – and specifically it will remain devoid of any and all political discussions and references. All that said, one of the reasons I don't blog as often is that I am trying to increase the quality of posts. If you look at the archives, you'll see that I used to blog quite frequently, though many entries would be short and, in a few cases, extremely pointless. I don't like that. As a result, I'm contemplating trying to migrate this blog to a more wide-reaching selection of topics. The quality would (hopefully) remain the same, and chances are many of them would still be tech-related. However, it would allow me the opportunity to discuss more things that are of interest to me and readers.
Secondly, the domain. No doubt you've noticed that the header image and title has changed, and that techpadawan.com redirects to rybomedia.com. I'm still at odds of what to do about this. On the one hand, I want to keep rybomedia.com, as it was the first domain I ever bought and the only reason I know any HTML or CSS. However, the name does not describe what the blog is. I had contemplated using rybomedia.com to contain information about the different projects I'm working on (Joupes, TaskPl.us, RyboMedia, PalmettoGraffiti, etc), but since I'm a terrible decision maker I'm still torn.
Lastly, the design. This site has gone through 5 major design changes through the years. Essentially, as I became a slightly better designer, I would re-make the site. As it is, and although it's somewhat simple, I'm proud of the site. There are a few tweaks I would like to add in the near future that would make things more visually appealing, and I would like to optimize it to be more search-engine friendly.
So, I'll ask you, the reader, what you think of all this. Leave me a comment with your two cents and I'll see what I can do to host another giveaway soon.
