"You want to do full-motion?" asks American Eurocopter simulator instructor Eric King. "We have this bag right here." King points to a jumbo sick sack between the two pilot positions in the $6 million Eurocopter AS350B2 and AS350B3 Level B simulator at the company's Grand Prairie, Texas campus. For a fleeting moment, I focus on the pair of sliders I had for lunch at the nearby Krystal. That was probably not the best choice. However, today motion sickness will be the least of my problems.
In a little more than 30 minutes, I'll be dead. It will be a simple autorotation into Long Beach Airport. I'll flare too high, mash the skids and roll over into a cloud of blade shrapnel in stunning, 3-D, full-color realism and a painfully authentic soundtrack of annunciator warnings, heaving engine and buckling metal. The visuals are so realistic that my inner ear will think I am actually on my side.
But for now King and I will put the sim through its paces, taking off from the USC Medical Center in downtown Los Angeles and dodging in and out of the glass canyon of nearby skyscrapers. You feel the vibration just like the real deal. You even get the shudder when transitioning and that loping feeling that comes with settling with power.
King goes for a quick start while explaining how the sim can be converted easily from B2 to B3 cockpits by changing out the instrument panels and the collectives. "The helicopters have a different fuel-pump set-up, caution warning panel and dual tach," he explains. The upper panel on the B3 contains the engine start switch, the fuel flow cutoff switch and the rotor brake. On the B2 the fuel-flow control lever and emergency cutoff switch are on the floor. The twist grip on the B3 is either at idle or flight due to the engine's Fadec system–there's no modulation.
"In the B2 we can modulate all we want. If we have a governor failure, we can practice low-side and high-side failures," King explains. All told more than 84 separate failures can be practiced in the sim: flameouts, chip-detector warnings, main-gearbox failures, tail-rotor failures–whatever sadistic combination the instructors care to throw at you.
Because the sim is set up to train both pilots and crews together, including law enforcement tactical flight officers, these unfortunate twists of fate can come at night during car chases or while dodging sniper fire, or when you are on the night-vision goggles. They can come during scene work on approach to a freeway pile-up or during a brown-out while on an EMS pickup from a construction site. You can hit inadvertent IMC while flying through snow lightning in the LA Basin or after rotating into the haze or fog from an oil platform off Catalina Island. Pick your poison, it's all here. Right now we are about to lose power while lifting off from a rooftop helipad 600 feet above the street. "Now you have to figure out what to do, but at this height it is not all that difficult," King said. It's not pretty, but we live.
For customers who do more low-level work, it can be a different matter. "We have customers from Canada who do a lot of powerline and logging work where they are down between 50 and 200 feet agl and zero airspeed. We practice autorotations there, too," he said. "Generally unsuccessfully. In here you realize that there is only one thing to do: push forward, cushion as much as you can on the bottom and hope for the best."
Realistic 3-D Environment
The sim contains visuals for both the L.A. basin and Dallas as well as 3-D inserts for LAX, Burbank, Long Beach and Santa Ana airports. "When we put L.A. into the sim we thought it would be good enough for other cities with tall buildings and an urban environment," King explained. "A visual database is expensive to build so we picked L.A. and we thought it was the best bang for the buck. There are a lot of our helicopters out here."
And a lot of cars. As we "cruise" over the L.A. freeways there are 100 cars–avatars actually–wandering around the 3-D environment. For fun, newscopters and airliners can be added to the mix. Generally the avatars can be pre-programmed and go from points A to B as they follow the terrain. But "pop ups" can be added for a little extra excitement. There will be an A340 lifting off at the last minute as I make my fateful run into Long Beach.
The sim's 3-D inserts are placed over two-dimensional imaging similar to what you see on Google Earth or from a satellite image over a topography grid. Distant images appear in two dimensions, but when you get close the image converts to 3-D. The system's realism is good, but not perfect. It can't simulate weird winds off buildings or in hovers. "We don't have mechanical turbulence in the sim," King explains. "If the wind is 270 at 20 when it hits the building it will still be 270 at 20 when it hits you. In the mountains we don't get that convection heating and the currents, either. Those are things we did not program into the sim," he said.
But for the most part, it is realistic enough. The instructor can program in east-to-west weather systems, moving clouds, change the weights from minimum to max gross, move the center of gravity as far forward as the customer wants or as far back as the helicopter will allow. "There are a lot of customers who max this thing out with fuel and load and we have realistic weight as the fuel 'burns off,'" King said.
American Eurocopter can either provide turnkey or dry leases of the sim. Numerous law-enforcement agencies are currently using it and helicopter EMS provider Air Methods recently signed a three-year, 1,000-hours-per-year contract for training all its AS350 pilots there.

My boyfriend got mad at me for washing my hands in the kitchen sink... wth? that's where I normally wash my hands when I eat...
Most Helpful Girl
I mean, ok, look, there's 3 levels of Things That Piss Yr Boyfriend Off.
1) Things that piss him off for totally justifiable reasons.
2) Things that piss him off for reasons that are petty, but that are understandable as individual quirks / idiosyncrasies / pet peeves.
(hey, c'mon, we all have *something* that bugs us waaayyyy more than it rationally should)
3) Things that piss him off for ABSOLUTELY NO CONCEIVABLE SENSIBLE REASON AT ALL.
This one is DEFINITELY in category 3.
You eat in the kitchen.
The kitchen sink accepts other food waste.
Obviously, it is a legitimate place to wash food waste off yr hands -- just as you'd wash THE SAME food waste off plates, silverware, etc. Lmao.
I mean... ok. The shit in category 2 is what starts stupid fights. But this is in category 3, not category 2. This is SO stupid, and SO impossible to understand, that it wouldn't even annoy me -- it would just make me SOOOO AMAZINGLY CURIOUS!
I mean... I'm not even you, and I don't even know this guy, and I SERIOUSLY WANNA KNOW WHY he has this problem. I want to know. This is a puzzle, and I can't solve it, and it's bugging the shit out of me that I can't come up with even a single halfway reasonable explanation.
If I were you, I'd just ask him, out of genuine wonderment!
What the heck!
I'm so curious! Did yr grampa lose a hand in the kitchen garbage disposal when you were little, or something?"
Srsly -- don't even get pissed, just try to get to the bottom of this. This is SO WEIRD that there *has* to be some reason behind it. You might even get a quirky story about the boy's childhood out of it, ya never know.00|00|0
This is why I can't take you seriously.
- Show AllShow Less
Oh, and --
The kitchen vs. bathroom sink is petty, yes, yr right.
Which is exactly why HIS making it into an *issue* is NOT petty.
You see what I mean? It's such an unimportant crap thing. The LESS important something is, the MORE of a warning sign it is -- for yr relationship -- if he tries to control or restrict it.
If he's trying to control tiny little details that totally don't matter, that's something that you HAVE to bring out into the open RIGHT NOW.
If you don't, then either (1) yr relationship will disintegrate, OR (2) you'll find yrself in an abusive relationship where he tries to micromanage literally every iota of yr life.
Srsly, this is pretty important. You should be laughing/smiling when you FIRST bring it up, but, it's important.
Tx for the MH luv <3

Rihanna: My Dior Campaign Is 'a Big Deal for My Culture'
The singer speaks out about her new role for the house.
Last Friday, Rihanna was announced as the star of Dior's next "Secret Garden" campaign, the first video and print ad a black woman has starred in for the house. The singer, when asked about it by MTV News, shared what this news means to her. "It feels fantastic," she said. "It is such a big deal for me, for my culture, for a lot of young girls of any color. I think to be acknowledged by Dior is just, it means a lot as a woman to feel beautiful, to feel elegant and timeless." And well deserved to put it mildly. Congratulations, RiRi!

This talk will begin with an overview of landscape genomics, which attempts to understand how genetic variation is distributed across the landscape, and is shaped by environmental forces. Examples will be drawn from recent work on lizards of northern Australia, and vascular plants of New South Wales. In particular, I will highlight how large, genome-scale, datasets are providing glimpses into the dynamic recent history of Australia. I will then talk about a major project in comparative landscape genomics being undertaken at the Botanic Gardens. We are performing landscape genomic research on many species plant species, with the goals of informing revegetation efforts, and finding out how often different species display similar patterns of differentation and demography across the landscapes they share.
Light refreshments provided after talk - All are welcome!

California Employment Law
Have California Employment Law Questions? Ask a Lawyer.
Hello and thank you for entrusting me to assist you. My name is XXXXX XXXXX I will do everything I can to answer your question. Employers may not deduct from an employee's earned wages, so the policy you are describing is an unlawful labor practice. That said, employers have no legal obligation to provide severance except in certain extremely limited and likely non-applicable circumstances involving mass layoffs at large companies.Thus, your employer is free to offset "wage deductions" against severance because the severance payments are entirely voluntary to begin with. Your employer could just as easily pay you no severance at all. What your employer cannot do is revoke the severance offer all together and then deduct from your actual earned wages. However, provided you are receiving all the wages you actually earned, your employer will typically be in compliance with the law even if they choose to reduce your severance based on a policy of deducting for unpaid accounts.I hope that makes sense. Please do not hesitate to let me know if you have any questions or concerns regarding the above and I will be more than happy to assist you further.If you do not require any further assistance, please be so kind as to provide a positive rating of my service so that I may receive credit for assisting you. Very best wishes and kindest regards.
so even though I am not a terminated employee, meaning that no termination date is marked, he can take the money out of the pay he said that he would pay me. also, I forgot to mention that there was a pay schedule that they did with him on the past due and when he decided to let me go they wanted him to pay the account off in the entire which he did not have. they have also told the client that if he did not pay they were going to take it out of my pay. he had made his payments on time until that situation unfolded.

Midday Muse: Tree-Lined Teal
Every day on CasaSugar, I'll feature a photo I'm calling the Midday Muse to give you a little lunchtime inspiration.
Today, let's admire the tree-lined teal wall featured in the master suite of the 2007 San Francisco Decorator Showcase. I love the way the color and the tree-branch stencil add a playful twist to an otherwise formal bedroom.

SOLON– Three Spartans were crowned champions and Solon's wrestling team captured points up and down the lineup to take first place at the Ed Hadenfeldt Invitational Saturday.
Kade Steuhm (145 pounds), Trevor Nelson (160) and Logan Linderbaum (285) took first place for the Spartans at their own invitational Jan. 17 in the Solon High School gymnasium.
Solon's 213.5 points nudged out Lisbon (194) for top honors, with Iowa Valley taking third place with 139 points.
Louis Gnida (126) and Dillon Diltz (170) also reached the championship round but ended up in second place for the Spartans.
SOLON– Down by as many as 13 points, Solon roared back to out-score the Mount Vernon Mustangs 23-6 in the fourth quarter on the way to a 68-63 basketball win Jan. 13 in Solon.
It was the second win in a row for the Spartans and moved their record to .500 on the year. The varsity boys followed the win with another good performance, but unfortunately, in a two-point road loss at Dyersville Beckman, 68-66.
SOLON– The Solon Lady Spartans broke a three-game skid with a 38-29 victory over Dyersville Beckman Friday in Solon.
Solon had taken a 16-14 lead into halftime but the score was knotted 26 going into the fourth quarter and Dyersville Beckman sank a free throw for a one-point lead.
But three-pointers by Nichole Oberthien and Ali Herdliska gave Solon a 32-27 lead with three minutes remaining, and after a Dyersville time-out, the Lady Spartans picked up their defensive effort.
SOLON– The Solon Boy Scout Troop 120 is hosting its annual soup supper on Saturday, Jan. 17, at St Mary Catholic Church from 5-7 p.m. The soup supper features homemade soups of all varieties. Previous year's soups have included such traditional recipes as chicken noodle and chili, to some not-so-traditional soups such as Demok (spinach and coconut milk) and shrimp chowder. The supper is all-you-can-eat including fresh baked bread made by the Scouts the morning of the supper and a wide assortment of desserts to choose from.
SOLON– Solon American Legion will serve pancakes, scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, hash browns, biscuits and gravy, juice, coffee and milk on Sunday, Jan. 18, from 7:30-11:30 a.m. The all-you-can-eat breakfast is $8 for adults, $4 for children ages 6 to 12 and children 5 and under eat free. Proceeds go to the upkeep, landscaping, electricity and water expenses at the Veteran's Memorial at the Legion ball park. For more information call Cliff Bohling or Jamie Hromi with the Solon Legion at 319-624-2277.
SOLON– Solon Futbol Club (FC) will hold a "Kick the Can" fundraiser on Jan. 17 from 9 a.m. to noon. Cans and bottles may be dropped off at the Solon Heating and Air building just off Highway 1 north of Solon. Members of the Solon FC will also be going door-to-door for pickup. For more information, please contact Solon FC board members Garret Locke at 319-594-2256 or Jeff Rehnke at 319-624-1319.
SOLON– The Mercy Women's Center mobile mammography van will be in Solon on Tuesday, Jan. 20. The van will be located at the Mercy Family Medicine of Solon Clinic. The clinic was formerly known as Solon Family Practice, and is located at 510 W. Main St. The mobile mammography unit has been providing convenient access to breast screening services for Eastern Iowa women for over 28 years.
SOLON– Just as quickly as one vacancy was filled, another opened up for the Solon City Council.
The council welcomed new member Mark Prentice, who was appointed at the Jan. 7 regular session to fill the vacancy created when council member Brad Kunkel moved outside the city limits.
At the end of the meeting, it was announced that council member Ron Herdliska had resigned effective Jan. 1.
The city accepted applications from the community to fill Kunkel's spot, and received four: from Prentice, Dale Snipes, Steve Lee and Kristina Bevans.
SOLON– What a way to stop a five-game skid.
It took two overtimes, but the Solon Spartans defeated conference rival Western Dubuque in a Friday night shoot-out, 93-91.
The score was knotted at 91 with 90 seconds left in the second overtime, and Solon wound down the clock for a final shot.
Senior guard Emilio Villagrana found junior Haltson Durr open on the back side for an open shot and the 93-91 lead with two seconds left, enough only for a desperation heave by Western Dubuque.
SOLON– It's been cold coming out of winter break.
The Solon varsity girls basketball team picked up its first losses of the season to start the new year, at home Jan. 6 against Clear Creek Amana (CCA) and at the U.S. Cellular Center in Cedar Rapids Saturday against unbeaten Western Dubuque.
CCA beat Solon 55-43, while Western Dubuque (No. 2 in Class 4A) put the Lady Spartans down 42-14.
In both games, Solon had a hard time getting buckets.
In the case of the Clippers, Solon also had a hard time handling senior Hanna Stokes, who led CCA with 16 points and 10 rebounds.
MARSHALLTOWN– It's a really hectic time for Solon head wrestling coach TJ Bevans, but he couldn't be happier.
Heading into this weekend's Ed Hadenfeldt Invitational, his varsity wrestlers are coming off a third-place finish at a packed Allie Morrison Dual Tournament in Marshalltown and a first-ever dual win over West Delaware in Manchester.
At Marshalltown Jan. 10, the Spartans defeated Grinnell, Marshalltown and North Polk before falling to Norwalk 31-29. Johnston beat Solon 49-12 in the final round.
SOLON– The Solon Sons of the American Legion are hosting its annual "Famous" Kettle-Fried Chicken Dinner on Saturday, Feb. 7, at the Solon American Legion.

Mexican teenager Yessica is bullied by her father-in-law's son and has been expelled from her school. But things only get worse when she is raped, and she seeks solace by turning to her new friend, the shy Miriam.
Based on real events, this tale of Mexican poverty refuses to lapse into sensation or melodrama. That said, Maryse Sistach never quite exposes us to the true horror of the urban decay that prompts a teenager to sell his stepsister to a bus driver for sex.
Resentful of her mother's remarriage, Ximena Ayala is a ticking timebomb. But the hope promised by her relationship with Nancy Gutiurrez is undermined both by her rape and the disapproval of her friend's mother, whose hostility ultimately leads to tragedy. Ayala conveys the wounded bewilderment of a teen who's survived loveless domestic deprivation well, but is floored by the prospect of rejection by a soulmate whom she thoughtlessly hurts with her shoplifting and casual flirting. Unfortunately, some of the performances around her are more formulaic.
A brutally mature central performance elevates this Mexican drama, but ultimately it's not quite hard-hitting enough.

ARLINGTON, Texas -- We're not going to say the Dallas Cowboys' season is over. That would be harsh.
So instead, we'll tell you this:
The Cowboys are 0-2 to start the season following a 27-20 loss to the Chicago Bears on Sunday afternoon at Cowboys Stadium.
The odds of making the playoffs after an 0-2 start are slim. Since 1990, only 13 percent of NFL teams that have started 0-2 have reached the playoffs.
In the past two years, 19 teams have started 0-2, and only three made the postseason: the Miami Dolphins, Minnesota Vikings and San Diego Chargers.
Nobody did it last year.
It's hard to believe in the ability of these Cowboys to climb out of this 0-2 hole when you hear things like the following from cornerback Terence Newman.
"Like I said, I don't know if you heard me, but I think that things [in practice] kind of got let go [by the players] in practice," Newman said. "It's things that ... it's not our coaches. They don't really know some of the things that were going on. But as players, we have to crack down and make sure that some of the stuff that has been going on doesn't go on.
"We have to make it a game situation in practice. That's just what it is. We go hard in practice, but maybe our intensity needs to go up a little bit. We've got to do that as players and not worry about the coaches."
The Cowboys elected to go with a younger team this season. Gone are veterans Patrick Crayton, Flozell Adams, Ken Hamlin and Pat Watkins.
In their place are Doug Free, Dez Bryant, Barry Church, Danny McCray and Alan Ball. When you go with younger players -- or cheaper, if you will -- mistakes happen.
It's not just on the field but off it, as well.
Players have to attend meetings on time, know their assignments not just in full-speed practices but in walk-throughs. Act professional at all times. Don't shout at the training staff when they're trying to help you. Be on time when the training staff schedules rehab times.
Respect your teammates and coaches.
There were two incidents last week that raised eyebrows in the Cowboys' locker room. At midweek, linebackers coach Reggie Herring yelled at some of the younger players to attend a meeting on time. Several other players howled as if to mock Herring.
On Friday, after some fun between Marcus Spears and Jon Kitna about a game of spades drew reporters to listen in on the banter, tight end Martellus Bennett started shouting as if he wanted attention.
"It's bad," cornerback Mike Jenkins said. "We got caught up in a lot of hype. Just need to come out and execute and come out and get W's, and there's nothing else to talk about."
No need to worry about hype now. The Cowboys are headed to a nasty place.
This is not a disciplined team. They committed six penalties for 50 yards and now have drawn 18 flags in two games.
Two penalties were on plays involving the opposing quarterback: Igor Olshansky slammed Jay Cutler down after he threw the ball, and Keith Brooking tried to snatch the helmet off Cutler on another play.
Sunday against the Bears, the Cowboys dropped two passes (Miles Austin and Jason Witten were the targets) that led to interceptions. There was a critical fumble by Roy E. Williams as the Cowboys were trying to rally in the fourth quarter. A missed field goal by David Buehler that would have tied the score in the fourth killed momentum, coach Wade Phillips said.
"Just everything around us," Jenkins said. "I think all the players, our mindset is on a lot of stuff. We've got a lot of stuff going on. We're the Dallas Cowboys, being one of the biggest teams in the nation, [and] we need to just come out and play ball. I think a lot of guys underestimated this game. We didn't execute."
The Cowboys figured they had an advantage with two strong pass-rushers in DeMarcus Ware and Anthony Spencer to knock Cutler around.
They succeeded for a while, flushing him out of the pocket and forcing him to rush his throws. But when left tackle Chris Williams went down with an injury, it seemed as if the Cowboys' pass rush got injured, too.
Kevin Shaffer replaced Williams. Ware and Spencer got close to Cutler, but not close enough to offset this number: a 136.7 quarterback rating. Or these numbers: zero interceptions and three touchdowns.
"Jay got the ball out quick, and I think that made a big difference because on turf, everything is faster," Shaffer said. "Those guys are screaming off the edge. It took a minute to find who we got. We had great communication. If you know who you have, it makes it a whole lot easier."
When the game was over, Phillips spoke to his group about getting its act together and not falling apart. Linebacker Bradie James also spoke about not letting this season slip away.
Next week, the Cowboys visit Houston, where in one regular-season meeting, the first game in Texans history, they lost.
The Texans treat the Cowboys game as if it's the Texas Super Bowl. So it doesn't seem as if this thing is going to get easier.
"This is what we are right now," James said. "This is reality. There is no need to be surprised we're 0-2. So in order for us not even to turn this thing around to win, we've got to show up and give it our all practice-wise. I don't know if guys are just showing up today and thinking people are going to lay down for it, I don't know what it is.
"We've got to execute every down, that's what it is. We have to keep each other accountable. This might be a blessing in disguise. It's on us to show up man, you've got to show up."

On Wonder Woman
I am not into super heroes. I never identified with Wonder Woman. I wanted to be part of the first weekend grosses for Patty Jenkins.
I still sobbed in the middle of the movie tonight because for a moment I could see what it would have been like at 10 to see a woman be this strong and unafraid. And I could imagine, in a flash, what kind of impact that would have had on my life and the lives of my peers for the years we've had. And I could see what it'll mean for the 10 year old girls now. And I wished it had come out a year ago because I seriously think it would have helped HRCs campaign because it will impact the culture in a broad way about strong women and strength and love and doing what's right. I was also thrilled that Patty Jenkins got this gig and did such a fantastic job. This is not a genre of film I particularly like (though I even imagined tonight how much fun it would be to act in a film like this which I'd never considered before because I hadn't seen my own athleticism and strength as skills for film). But I really enjoyed this movie. I would have been happy if the movie never left the island with the Amazons (no surprise there). Maybe It's a genre I *could* love. One I could make.
Here's to a future of unapologetic women taking power and directing whatever the hell we want.

The next Yarn is coming up on the 7th in Oakland. Hope to see you there. You'll find tickets here.
Russia stands up for punching women. What follows America?
Russia has just decriminalized domestic violence.
Women are harmed at an alarming rate from domestic violence here in the US too. And the Senate just voted to make sure contraception is not covered. Misogyny has long been apart of our culture. This is a moment in which patriarchy has put all its chips on red.
It is time for us to refuse. This means men too have to really get in your guts, what it means to have self-agency and control over your body handed over whether its forced pregnancy, the very common experience of rape and sexual assault and the de facto cultural and legal reality that there's not a whole lot you can do about it without more pain and even with the pain there are almost never collective social and legal consequences for rape for the rapist other than affirmation of so-called "masculinity," the dismissal and marginalization of womens experience (or these would be stories and experiences you'd be hearing about all the damn time in media), any random guy walking toward down the airplane aisle feeling like its no big deal to put his hands on your waist to move you aside.
This means marching and calling and insisting. This means making consent a reality and the norm. This means talking to your sons and students about what consent is. This means social norms and pressures that support girls and womens' agency.
Sadly it is things getting much worse and emboldened that make people more aware of what has always been there. A good chunk of the country had to knowingly vote (though I am not persuaded it was just votes that put Il Dupe in position we need an open investigation) for someone who brags about sexually assaulting women. Sexual assault was voted for. We will see more like this as in Russia if we do not say and embody "no."
As with all things, if you don't get the lesson, it gets harder.
And for those doubling down on misogyny in the new regime and the emboldened culture of dominanace sold, like crack or a bottle, like it's gonna make everything ok, they will continue to find there will never be enough to make them feel ok. Their desperation will only increase.
There's no way out of this without learning to feel, without growing up.
What If Tech Hadn't Been Willing to Meet Il Dupe
I don't see how Il Dupe controls the population inexpensively without the companies that decided to kiss his ring the other day.

Why presume the value of the market and currency will somehow be supported by his regime taking over (though Russian interference and electors haven't met why presume for sure he'll take over? Why not support public inquiry into Russian hacking? Technical stuff too complicated for tech CEOs? They gave him an implied endorsement via this appearance timed when it was.
Dave Pell recently outlined the shareholder pain but not the moral quandry or benefit (or political benefit) of taking a stand.
Putin got a whole lot of bang for his hacking buck. If they collectively decided to not go, who do you think the market would choose?
My instinct at this point is that you disarm manipulation best with what is inalienable. It is what can't be bought and sold.
None of these CEOs and COOs who took off all their fleece vests and travelled to a sudden demand meeting with Thiel's latest angel investment has been willing yet to make the public stand others who work in the industry and sometimes for them have. You can too
The Unfacted: Lessons Learned Coming Out.
I wrote a little something on twitter about lessons learned coming out and living in a "make up your own facts" world.
The Donald Trump v Hillary Clinton election has given us a moment in which the threads of what the country appear to all agree upon are unravelling.
Donald Trump's Thanksgiving Day Parade float level of narcissism seems to have given us a new level of ignoring or making up facts in politics and government.
Is it?
So many on the left are convinced of the need to only persuade with argument and the apparent hopelessness of this for our collective future safety when we cannot agree on basic things.
It's not new that people in the US won't accept facts. Here's one example and some things I learned from it.
After Trump I Went to the Castro
Youth Protesting in the Castro
I went to the Castro the night after Trump was elected to be with my people. I went there to fight Prop 8 and when marriage equality passed. It's where queers marched the night Harvey Milk was killed by an elected white guy full of resentment and looking for someone he was allowed to blame. It's where we lost a generation and where they were loved and mourned and fought for. It is the gay Jerusalem. After Harvey was killed, more people came out. When HIV/AIDS hit and decimated a generation and the President refused to even acknowledge this was happening, many well-to-do white, gay men came out and were outed, queer men and women united to work together and care for and bury our own. ACT UP was created. We organized. People learned about medicine and drugs. When Prop 8 passed in California, more straight folks joined us than ever before. Each time something unimagineably horrible has happened, something unimagineably powerful has been born in response. there has been no one leader. The change has come within each person and from what they have done.
I want to time travel to 1988 and tell everyone "We have the meds!!! You did it!! You cheated death! We have marriage, we're not criminalized!! We have some trans* rights! Keep going! Come out."
Some part of future me is here to tell you the same.

Amongst all types of real money-winning online casino games in Australia, Roulette is one of the most exciting and popular ones. Roulette has evolved significantly over the ages but the basic gambling concepts still apply – be it in a brick and mortar casino or in mobile or online casino games. Getting to the basics of Roulette, this game has a spinning wheel with slots that are numbered. There is a roulette table where bets are placed while a small ball is released into the spinning wheel. The aim is to guess the exact number or group of numbers the ball will come to land on when the wheel stops spinning.
Just like playing BlackJack, Craps and other table or slot casino games, Roulette has its own set of advantages. Playing online means you have access to all the different variations of Roulette and you can play from practically anywhere in the world. Aussies just love to play online Roulette because of round the clock gaming support, and because the best of these games have live dealers. It doesn't get more real than this!

Roulette Rules – Master Them to Win Real Money in Casino Games
To start playing Roulette online you need to begin by placing a bet. A standard European Roulette game has ten bets, divided into outside bets and inside bets.
You will have the same odds of winning in both French and European Roulette, but there is one difference. Mini roulette gives you the highest odds of winning when compared to other types of online casino roulette games. This is because the betting options are less, thus lesser numbers to bet on.
Inside bets are placed on the inner section of the Roulette table. Inside bets are:
- Straight bets: A single number bet. It is placed directly on the number which is on the table.
- Split bets: A bet placed on two numbers adjacent on the table. You place the bet on the line in between the numbers.
- Street bets: This bet is placed on a row of three numbers at the end of the row.
- Double street bets: This is also known as a six line bet. Bet is placed on six numbers of two adjacent rows on the line in between the rows.
- Corner bets: The bet is placed on the four numbers in the corner of the roulette table. You place the bet in the center of the numbers.
Outside bets are placed on the outer section of the Roulette table. Outside bets are:
- Column bets: Bet is placed on the twelve numbers that form the column on the roulette table. You place the bet at the end of the column.
- Dozen bets: You can place your bet on a group of a dozen numbers – 1-12; 13-24 or 25-36.
- Red or black bets: Betting on the color of the number. The bet is placed on a red diamond or a black diamond marked area.
- Odd or even bets: Bet whether the number will be odd or even.
- High or low bets: Bets on either high numbers – (19-36) or low numbers – (1-18). Place bet on area marked "1-18" or "19-36".

AT&T is making all their U-Verse customers stop using the Class A Private IP Space (10.0.0.0)!
It's not really a big problem to change my internal, private IP addressing scheme. It'll probably take me an hour or less (for which AT&T is willing to reimburse me $25!). It's the principle of the thing! I feel violated. I feel like someone is taking away one of my rights. (I know it's not a right, but it *feels* like it.)
I mean that space was set aside from the beginning of the universe to be *private!* Why should I have to change? Carrier grade NAT? IPv6?
And what about RFC6598 (18.104.22.168/10), which was recently assigned to provide ISPs with a range for NAT that is not going to conflict with their customers NAT networks?!?!?
I'm paying extra for 5 static public IP addresses. AT&T's internal addressing problems shouldn't affect me!
How is this going to affect services that rely on those static IP addresses?
AT&T shouldn't cause their customers grief just because they're too lazy to set up their IP addresses correctly!!
I'm currently researching other providers. But, there just aren't a lot of alternatives in a very small rural Texas town.
And before people start saying that U-Verse is a consumer-grade product and that I should be using a business-grade product, I just can't afford the $300/month and up prices for that kind of service. I have trouble meeting the rent on my building now. Until business gets a *lot* better, I'm stuck with only being able to afford consumer-grade Internet. Additionally, that level of speed/performance is perfectly acceptable for my use. I'd just like to have a little more control over what happens on *my* side of AT&T's modem/router! (You can't even turn off DHCP anymore!!!)
6 Replies
Jun 28, 2012 at 3:17 UTC
How would AT&T know what your private addressing is? I have AT&T and my scheme is 10.0.0.0
Jun 28, 2012 at 4:38 UTC
They can remote into the U-Verse router/modem and not only see the network configuration but all the devices connected to it!
Jun 28, 2012 at 4:39 UTC
You have AT&T, but do you have U-Verse or DSL or T-1 or what? It's only the U-Verse customers who are being affected, from my understanding.
Jun 29, 2012 at 8:21 UTC
Ah i see now, I have there DSL plan. Have had it for years now. Thanks for clearing this up for me!
Jul 2, 2012 at 8:45 UTC
Can you use their modem / router as just a modem and install your own router? In my eyes your network and their network should be two completely different things. They should not have the right to access or control your network unless you give them permission to. If you can install your own router all they will be able to see is the outside of your network and you will be able to do what you want with the inside.
Jul 5, 2012 at 11:05 UTC
I've considered putting my own router in. I've got 5 static public IP addresses, though, and I'm not sure if I can configure everything to get those addresses back to the appropriate servers.

Comparing the Fates of Two Exurbs
"In October, I did the unthinkable and went to stay in Leesburg, where my grandmother lives, without a car. After taking the commuter bus to Leesburg from Washington, D.C., I arrived in a massive gravel parking lot. Everyone jumped into a car and drove home, except for one or two bicyclists and a few people waiting to be picked up. For the car-less, these commuter buses are the only way into or out of Leesburg, save for one "reverse commuter" bus that goes to the nearest Metro station, roughly 40 minutes away. No trains stop here, no Greyhound station is in sight, and no buses come on the weekends. A cab to the Metro costs at least $60. Walking? Forget about it. The sidewalks are narrow and poorly lit, and cars whiz by without a buffer lane of parked cars to slow them down. It's enough to make pedestrians feel downright unsafe.
Even as Leesburg notionally committed to a more responsible land-use pattern in its 2005 town plan, it continues to zone undeveloped land at low densities. The standard in Leesburg is four units to the acre, although it is sometimes lower -- in contrast with a typical city block, which would have approximately 25 buildings per acre and possibly far more units if they were subdivided into apartments. Yet Leesburg actively discourages developers from building more sensibly. That is because the Town Council fears that dense plans will bring costly infrastructure needs, such as sewers, and that great suburban boogeyman, traffic. In 2007, one developer bought the right to build a mix of town homes and detached houses on an undeveloped property by paying to expand the arterial road that will serve it from two lanes to four. So to build denser in Leesburg, you need to give the town exactly more of what it does not need: wider roads."

BOSTON -- Patrice Bergeron was finally cleared to play for the Boston Bruins after missing 15 games with a concussion.
The forward then registered an assist in Tuesday night's 3-2 overtime win against the Washington Capitals.
Bergeron registered 17:38 of ice time after receiving medical clearance and skating with his teammates earlier in the day. Bergeron missed the last 72 regular-season games and the playoffs last season with a concussion sustained when he was hit from behind by Philadelphia's Randy Jones.
His most recent concussion occurred Dec. 20 when he checked Carolina's Dennis Seidenberg and fell to the ice before getting up several minutes later. He said Tuesday that he's felt well the past week. The 23-year-old Bergeron has four goals and 14 assists in 31 games but only one goal came in his last 19 games.
Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.

The Afghan policewoman suspected of killing a U.S. contractor in Kabulsuffered from mental illness, her children say. The children of the Afghan policewoman suspected of killing a U.S. contractor at police headquarters in Kabul plea for her life.
On Monday she loaded a pistol in a bathroom at the police compound, hid it in her long scarf, and shot an American police trainer.
Her children say she suffered from mental illness and attempted suicide because of poverty.
"She was always complaining about poverty. She complained to my father about our lives. She said our father is poor and our living conditions are not good," said her son.
While her daughter pleas for her life, "God knows about the future. I ask the government to free my mother, otherwise our future will be destroyed."
They recall her severe mood swings -- at times beating them. She took pills in a suicide attempt a month ago.
They say, their mother, born in Iran, was never critical of the American presence in Afghanistan. Neighbors say they heard her scream at her husband, whose menial job in the crime investigation unit of the police delivers little cash.
Officials described the attack as another "insider shooting," in which Afghan forces turn on Westerners. There have been more than 52 such attacks so far this year.

After a strong showing in 2010 and early 2011, the SMT equipment market posted declining numbers in the second half of 2011 and the beginning of 2012. At the end of the second quarter of 2012, however, SIPLACE's market analysts see first signs of a further economic upswing. New orders and deliveries are especially on the rise in China, which currently accounts for roughly 50 percent of the global market. The rest of Asia as well as North and South America are lagging behind, but a look at the quarterly numbers shows some light growth or stabilization in these areas as well. However, all in all the results still remain below last year's level. In light of the uncertainties caused by the euro crisis, only Europe exhibits a negative trend, albeit with signs of a slight slowdown. As far as SIPLACE is concerned, the news from the company's analysis is positive: the new SIPLACE SX platform is an especially great success in North and South America. During the first six months of 2012, SIPLACE Amcas managed to increase its share of new machine deliveries considerably and almost doubled this share gain in terms of new orders.
The economic recovery becomes particularly apparent in a quarter-over-quarter comparison. While deliveries increased by one digit numbers in the first quarter of 2012, they rose almost five times as much from the first to the second quarter of 2012. The fact that the deliveries in the Chinese market rose by three times faster in the same periods than in the rest of the world indicates its dominant role in current industry developments. Almost 50 percent of new equipment shipments went to manufacturers in the People's Republic during the first six months of 2012. Europe brings up the rear in this regional comparison: its deliveries number dropped in the second quarter of 2012 for the third quarter in a row.
The SIPLACE team is especially excited about the North and South American markets right now. It not only posted a total increase in deliveries of 28 percent in the second quarter of 2012, but the SIPLACE team also managed to significantly increase its market share. In terms of new order bookings, SIPLACE's market share rose strongly by one digit numbers according to internal and external data. The SIPLACE team considers this a clear indicator of the good work being done in North and South America and of the strength of its new SIPLACE SX platform.
The glass is half full
"To use the famous comparison, we believe that the glass is half full as far as the global SMT equipment market is concerned. Although some risks remain, the trend is clearly pointing upward compared with the second half in 2011, especially in China. This confirms our medium-term forecast from last fall. We also see signs that Southeast Asia as well as North and South America will follow this trend in the second half of 2012. Because of its regional problems, Europe is the only place where we remain skeptical regarding a trend reversal anytime soon," says Stephanie Pepersack, who is in charge of SIPLACE market intelligence.

This is the perfect retreat for those who want to relax in the beautiful Tuscan countryside but with a short journey to local towns for a leisurely lunch/dinner.
Paul's hospitality was excellent, only surpassed by his attention to detail from the colour co-ordinated glasses and soft furnishings to the scent diffusers and lavender surrounding the infinity pool.
We stayed with friends and felt completely at home which is not often the case in a B&B. Breakfast was a leisurely affair ranging from fresh fruit and yoghurt to local meats and cheese so there was something for everyone. We opted to "eat with the host" on a couple of the evenings which was a great way to relax in the lovely surroundings of the villa, both in and outside, and Paul's cooking was complimented by his tried and tested wine collection.
Both the bedroom and the en-suite were spacious and well furnished, and all requests were fulfilled by Paul both promptly and effectively.
Whether relaxing by the pool, having a drink on the patio, or lounging on the sofas, the villa was perfect to meet all of our needs. We will definitely be visiting in the future.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- Villa Luogoceleste (previously called Villa Scannagallo)is a luxurious and contemporary 5 double bedroom B&B located in the countryside of Foiano della Chiana.

New plugin here: http://community.spiceworks.com/plugin/863
This is based on the Colourise Tickets plugin by Paul Price, but instead of assigning color by priority you assign it by the user assigned to the ticket. We are using this so we can get a quick visual overview of open tickets and their owners.
Users must be set in the source code, but once set you can change the color for that user and the area the color will show from the configure menu.
Probably not the best for helpdesks that change admins regularly as you'll have to be in the source code alot, but great for us.
Oh, and thank you all for being so amazingly awesome. We are just now making the move to spiceworks and it wouldn't be possible without the extensions that the community has made possible for this software.

Were Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, and Eric Garner victims of cop brutality or thugs who had it coming? Were the cops in the right or wrong?
- Victims of cop brutality (racism)Vote A
- Thugs who had it comingVote B
Most Helpful Girl
I think they were definitely victims of cop brutality. They weren't all angels, which no one is, but they were unarmed and did not deliberately attack the cops, so there was no reason for the cops to be threatened or attack. There's definitely a bias with the media and general population as well. White attackers get the "they're just crazy" and don't get called thugs. However, while these men may or may not have been attacked due to race, police brutality isn't just about race. People all of all backgrounds are being wrongfully attacked by the police. Even non white police have been abusing their power. It's just an all around problem with SOME police. I emphasized some because it's important to remember not every police is the same.
They were definitely victims of abuse of power (and racism in certain circumstances).00|00|0
Most Helpful Guy
None of these kids was even a threat to anyone, so I think the case is pretty clear.11|00|0
The evidence in the Brown case would beg to differ (including the private autopsies).
- Show AllShow Less
Look, I totally believe that many cops need to be charged in the last year or two, with all this crap going on (the kid shot 16 times or whatever when he wasn't even close to an officer, or the guy who didn't have his license, tried to drive off, and was shot in the head at point blank). I just don't believe that Wilson deserved to be charged.
@Anno_Domini Mmh okay... well, I can't really judge it myself. I don't think I've read enough about it. I just think it's crazy this still happened. I mean, didn't the police officer have a taser? What about non-fatal wounds? He could have just shot him in the knee or hip or something like that? Brown was shot 6 times in total. That seems more like a violence party than an act of self-defense to me...

" I needed hearing aids in both ears, which could be fitted on the same day"
About: NHS Telford and Wrekin CCG NHS Telford and Wrekin CCG TF7 4BF
Posted by Passage764 (as ),
I went to my hearing appointment at Specsavers, Wellington, thinking they would tell me everything was OK. I could hear people talking, I could birds singing, OK I couldn't make out what some people were saying when in a group so basically sat and listened. The TV was a nightmare if I turned the sound up the voices were muffled, did intend getting earphones.
Chris the lady that tested my hearing made me feel so relaxed, explain everything as she went through the stages, I found it so interesting. She said I had got a hearing loss more from certain levels of sound and it was decided I indeed needed aids in both ears, which could be fitted on the same day, never expected that!
I came out from my appointment and what a difference. In fact I have worn them everyday since, never knew the indicators on my ear made a noise as well as flashed!
I can hear people talking clearer. Volume on TV us now at 20+ instead of 40+. The aids fit neatly behind my ear and my hair covered them - if has made my life better. I didn't realise how much I was missing.
Thanks to everyone who helped with with my transformation, certainly appreciated.
