Panasonic has updated its official EVOLTA YouTube channel with some new videos recapping the journey from October 4th ~ 10th. They start as early as 5AM, and so far they've already covered more than 70km. It seems like there's been quite a few maintenance hiccups, but so far it hasn't stopped them for more than […]

A MEMBER of the Iranian parliament's national security committee has said the military is to practise its ability to close the Gulf to shipping at the narrow Strait of Hormuz, the most important oil transit channel in the world.
Parviz Sarvari told student news agency ISNA yesterday: "Soon we will hold a military manoeuvre on how to close the Strait of Hormuz. If the world wants to make the region insecure, we will make the world insecure."
Iran's military declined to comment on the claim.
Iran's energy minister told Al-Jazeera television last month that Tehran could use oil as a political tool in the event of any future conflict.
About one-third of all sea-borne shipped oil in the world passed through the Straits in 2009, according to the US Energy Information Administration, and US warships patrol the area to ensure safe passage.
Most of the crude exported from Saudi Arabia, Iran, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait and Iraq, together with nearly all the liquefied natural gas from lead exporter Qatar, must slip through the four-mile wide shipping channel between Oman and Iran.
The UAE is believed to be planning to pump oil via an as yet unused pipeline and bypass the Straits. The pipeline links state firm Abu Dhabi National Oil Company's Habshan oilfields to the port and storage terminal of Fujairah.

text: My little sister still wears leos with high cut legs with dance tights over them. She says "It shows off my height and my long legs". (She is tall for her age). Sometimes when in the middle of a routine, a kick or stretch exposes her bare hips, and has to pull her shorts or tights up to "cover" herself. Her high school dance club practices in the hallways outside the studio, which happens to be next door to the guys' weight room. Her and her classmates always say the guys are perverts because the watch the girls dance. So from a teenage boys' point of view, is he looking at her "skin" or just watching the dance? I keep telling her that the situation is normal as it happened to me 9 years ago when I was on the gymnastics team at her school, but she doesnt believe me. What should I tell her?

When I first stumbled upon these 'WuFu' Glasses, I couldn't help but think of Geordi La Forge's VISOR in 'Star Trek.' I mean, they both artificially produce sight for the blind. But whereas the VISOR produced energy-filled images, the 'WuFu' Glasses uses ultrasonic waves to produce tactile images.
Inspired by bats, the 'WuFu' Glasses were developed by Lab3. According to The Design Blog, "the visual aid carries the ultrasonic waves to sensors on opaque glasses and translates them, using two motors attached to the wrists of the wearer, into vibrations."

Investing is a long term strategy whereupon you use the money you already have to obtain an additional profit from it. In other words, you are putting your money to work for you in such a way that it is likely to turn into even more money.
Most people define investing as taking ownership in another venture that is separate from yourself like a stock, bond, mutual fund or even real estate.
Spending money on yourself can aso be looked upon as a type of investment and many entrepreneurs will tell you this is the most important investment you can ever make.

Obama's Second Inauguration: Big Money but No Big Lines
There were no memorable lines in President Obama's second inaugural address. Certainly nothing like Franklin Roosevelt's "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself," which was in his first inaugural, or like John F. Kennedy's "Ask not what your country can do for you -- ask what you can do for your country."
But there was plenty he said that was troubling.
The problem mostly wasn't what he said. It was how he said it, and what he left unsaid.
Take climate change.
The president acknowledged the problem, saying: "We will respond to the threat of climate change, knowing that the failure to do so would betray our children and future generations."
So far so good, but then he didn't talk about any serious steps to do that, such as shutting down coal-fired generating plants and putting a stop to plans to import dirty, massively polluting and inefficient oil from Canadian and US tar-sands deposits. Instead he focussed on economic opportunities to be had if the US would start investing seriously in new energy technology. He did not take this unique opportunity to tell Americans honestly what the risks of inaction are: The extinction of half the species on the earth, including primary food sources that keep billions of us alive, and the risk of runaway warming that could raise the oceans by 16 to 60 feet. Instead he focussed parochially on storms and droughts and forest fires getting worse. This was a wasted leadership moment if there ever was one.
When JFK made his one inaugural address, the Cold War was at its height. He didn't fudge the moment, and instead let Americans and the world know the gravity of the threat of mutual global nuclear annihilation by describing the situation thusly as "both sides overburdened by the cost of modern weapons, both rightly alarmed by the steady spread of the deadly atom, yet both racing to alter that uncertain balance of terror that stays the hand of mankind's final war."
President Obama had the chance to lay the current even worse crisis out with equal clarity. He blew it, instead portraying the climate change crisis as simply an opportunity for the US to gain or lose the leadership in a new technological marketplace.
On education, he also narrowly focussed on schools as job training centers, instead of as transmitters of culture, saying: "...a modern economy requires railroads and highways to speed travel and commerce; schools and colleges to train our workers."
What about training our artists, dancers, poets, historians, writers, musicians and philosophers? Today, in school district after school district, art and music teachers, librarians and others are being laid off by financially struggling school districts. Where is the president's leadership in trying to preserve real education in America?

I just heard the news from Mark's own blog, he's shifting from Canonical CEO to a more focused Steve Jobsian roll for Ubuntu. In his place will step Jane Silber.
I had the good fortune of working with Jane briefly on Ubuntu One, and she struck me as very capable and strong. An excellent choice to move the business forwards, to handle the day to day money making.
I don't think anyone is particularly surprised that Mark wants to take a more hands on roll with the technical and design direction of Ubuntu, his very active participation in the Ayatana mailing list should have given a hint where the passion was. I figure that the day to day operations of Canonical were just getting in the way of the fun stuff.
I offer my congratulations and best of look to everyone.

What's the Difference Between a DVD Case and CD Case?
There are currently many mediums for CDs and DVDs Storage. The physical disc size of a standard DVD and CD are the same, yet the packaging cases designed for each are different in many ways. To find the right case for your media, let's first explore the various options available.
CD Cases: A common name for CD cases is Jewel Case. It is usually a 3-piece construction plastic case that can hold the compact disc(s), liner notes, and a back card. The opposing transparent halves are hinged together to form the casing, the back half holds a media tray that grips the disc. Except for cases made with recycled materials (usually only available in black), standard jewel cases are made of injection-molded polystyrene for higher quality and durability. Aside from the difference in colors, CD cases can be subcategorized into 5 categories: Standard Single CD Jewel Case , Single Slim CD Case , Standard Double CD Jewel Case , Double Slim CD Case, and Mini CD Jewel Case.
- Standard Singled CD Jewel Case is the most common CD packaging. The dimensions are 125 x 145 x10 mm. The standard color is black, but clear/white is also available. The front sleeve of the standard CD jewel case can hold a booklet up to 32 pages. The back of the jewel case can hold a single printed card with two spines. Although designed to only firmly hold one single CD, the case can accommodate up to 6 discs.
- Single Slim CD Case is a popular and colorful selection. It is half the thickness of the standard jewel case and very light in weight. The dimensions are 125 x 145 x 5.2 mm. This saves storage space and postage costs when mailed. It is of 2 piece construction with no removable tray. The tray or base is usually black but available in a variety of colors such as orange, purple, pink, clear, white, and blue.
- Standard Double CD Jewel Case is a 3 piece construction with a removable tray. Like the Single Standard Case, the dimensions are 125 x 145 x 10mm. This type of case features clips on the face cover and a removable tray for inserts. It is most common in black, but other colors are available. The Standard Double CD Jewel Case allows you to safely package 2 standard sizes CDs or DVDs, but can hold up to 6 discs.
- Double Slim CD Case has the benefit of carrying two CDs or DVDs, but in a slimmer case. The dimensions are 125 x 145 x 5.2 mm. Unlike the Standard Double Case, this does not include a removable tray. The two CDs / DVDs are instead held at the sleeves of the case.
- Mini CD Jewel Case is specially designed for mini CDs / DVDs. The Mini CD/DVD Jewel Case allows you to securely package any mini size CD/DVD. Made of hard, high quality clear plastic, this Mini CD/DVD Jewel Case features clips on the front tray to hold inserts and a mini media. This is an elegant mini CD/DVD media packaging solution.
DVD Cases: Length is the first noticeable difference between a CD case and a DVD case. The standard length for a DVD case is 192mm, however the thickness may varied from different models. Although, the case is longer in length, it is common for people to use DVD cases also for CD storage. Variations of the DVD cases hold up to 4 or more DVDs often with a hinge mechanism. Unless specifically stated to be made with recycled materials, all of DVD cases are made with Polypropylene, which produce durable cases. Aside from the difference in colors, DVD cases can be subcategorized into 6 categories: Single DVD Case , Double Slim DVD Case, Single Slim DVD Case , Double DVD Case , DVD Case Triple, and DVD Case Quadruple.
- Single DVD Casesare the classic industry standard DVD case packaging. Exactly like the cases that hold your rented DVDs from the video store. DVD cases are often used for CD packaging as well. The standard DVD case holds one CD/DVD, has a clear outer film which holds a printed sleeve or wrap, and inner plastic clips which may hold a DVD booklet. These cases are available in black, white, clear, and frost clear.
- Single Slim DVD Casesare the exactly duplication of a standard DVD case made slimmer. The dimensions are 135 x192 x 7mm. It has a strong locking mechanism that can prevent the CD/DVD from falling from the case. The strong tab holders are durable and last for many usages.
- Double DVD Casessecurely hold 2 DVDs or CDs. These high quality cases are great for professional use or personal storage. The Strong hinge will not become white or broken even after numerous openings and closings.
- Double Slim DVD Cases is 7mm thick, half the thickness of a standard DVD case. The thin double dual 7mm DVD case allows for greater space utilization and shipping efficiencies. It allows you to safely package 2 DVDs/CDs. Made of high quality plastic, this Slim Double Dual 7mm DVD Case features a push button hub for easy media removal. Also, a clear acetate outer cover that allows for case wrap insert. This case is both attractive and durable.
- DVD Case Triple opens and closes just like a book. This case can fit up to 3 discs. Two discs are designed to fit into each side of the box while the third disc fit into one side of the hinged, middle tray. The dimensions are 14 x 135 x 190mm. Although this is classified as a DVD case, this is also great for CDs packaging.
- DVD Case Quadruple has the same physical size of a regular standard DVD case, yet it can hold up to 4 discs. This DVD Box opens and closes like a book. Two discs fit onto each side of the box. Two other discs fit into either side of the hinged, middle tray.

I wanted to thank your company, Toby in particular, for your help this past Friday bonding my brother out of jail. I never thought I'd be in the position to bond a loved one out of jail, but working with Toby made the process much easier. From the moment he answered the phone he was professional, friendly and calm. He made the whole process as simple as it can be and never sounded frustrated with me no matter how many times I had to call him from Texas to get everything done. I had contacted several other bond companies 1st, and actually hung up on one of them because they were so rude. Thanks again for all your help, and as nice as you were, here's hoping I never have to use your company again. Loretta Hewitt

I needed help to bail a loved one out of jail in Moab, UT. I called Pioneer Bail Bonds based on a review I read on the internet about a terrific bondsperson in Moab. And I found the review to be very true. Tina was extremely responsive and understanding. She worked with me and with the booking officer throughout the entire night – started about 11:30 pm and finished with my wife's release about 4:00 am. Tina has been ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIC. She clearly cares about the people she helps. I feel very fortunate to have had her on my side. THANKS, TINA!

My son was incarcerated in Salt Lake City over Labor Day weekend. He lives in California, and was traveling to our home in Texas. When I began to inquire what I needed to do to bail him out, I met all sorts of obstacles from every Bail Bonds I called (about 10). In particular, they wanted the cost of the entire bond set by the judge instead of the standard 10%. Sighting that my son lived out-of-state, and that he would be a high risk. When I finally contacted Pioneer, I talked to a very courteous and polite young man by the name of Jeremy. He quickly releived my fears and made the process extremely easy, and at the 10% of the original bond. In about 6 hours my son was out of jail. Thank you so much Pioneer for helping me and my family through a very trying time.

How does Santa Ana rapper Kadillak Kaz spend his downtime? Getting high on culture–and plenty of cannabis. In his latest video for the single "I'm In This" off of his recently released Downtime EP, the former OC Weekly cover boy stares at paint slathered portraits of Jimi Hendrix, Dr. Martin Luther King, and Malcolm X and other cultural icons, staring deep into their eyes and blowing blunt smoke in their faces. Sure, trying to give a civil rights leader a contact high might seem a little disrespectful, not to mention damaging to the artwork. But it's also symbolic of the rapper's hiatus since releasing last year's album, Late Nights, Early Money.
Taking time away from recording music prior to Downtime, which came in early 2015, Kaddy's had plenty of time to sit, smoke, and contemplate his next moves as an artist. He says the time off has been crucial since we last spoke to him after his release from jail following a near conviction on a dubious carjacking charge that almost landed him life in prison.
"I've been going through a lotta things in life and I needed to just stop for a minute and not do music for a minute. I was listening to other people's music, taking inspiration from others and living life. Downtime for me was getting back my piece of mind and seeing things correctly both personally and as a businessman."
Downtime became his way of telling people that despite his absence from the rap game, he still has plenty of tracks like "I'm In This" hidden in his arsenal, along with blazing beats courtesy of Deedotwill, Flip The Soul Fisher, Stone Beatz and many others. And now that his temporary vacation is over, he's ready to open fire once again on OC hip-hop.
"I've got my own studio again and I've been recording a lot," the rapper says. "I'm already working on my next project after this one. I actually got three projects right now I'm trying to finish."
Like most projects he works on, the video for "I'm In This" carries a guerilla style, street rapper vibe surrounded by hip-hop art. Hollywood gallery Exact Science and The Cllctiv clothing store in Santa Ana are the main backdrops in the video, for the rapper to stunt, pose, puff, clown on his haters, hold fake money bags, and court a handful of ladies in tight skirts and short shorts. Rapping over a track by respected LA producer DJ Official with a hook from fellow rapper SizzleSoFresh, Kaddy's verses toe the line between solid bars and braggadocio and a street-acquired smoothness. Obviously it was enough to convince an art gallery owner to open up for the rapper and his crew to spark up and have a good time.
With the new video and more new music in the works, Kaddy let himself into the art gallery, and into the hip-hop as well. Taking his long time slogan "Skyballin'" (also the name of the rapper's own indie label) to heart, the rapper says he's committed to learn from his past mistakes, grind towards the future, and create street art every time he touches the mic.
"Every day you get up and strive for perfection and strive to be a better individual, despite all the bullshit, if you're getting up to better yourself and be a better person than you were yesterday that's all that counts. You're skyballin'."

Birthday Card CASE from Stampin' Up! 2014/15 Catalogue
It's A Birthday Card CASEd From the New Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue
What is a CASEd Birthday Card? CASE is an acronym for Copy and Share Everything and that is exactly what I did for this card. Of course the card is not cased exactly as I switched up a couple of the products used on the original. In doing so, the Birthday card has become mine..
Casing a card or a scrapbook page is great when you loose your creativity and often this technique will get you back on track. Lots of times I will see an idea somewhere and then build on it. How often do you start out with an idea and then go completely off track and your creation is not how you envisioned it when you started.
That happens to me quite often because as I go along, the idea I started with often gets derailed as I decide to use a different colour or different stamp or not add an the embellishment that I thought would be great. Oh well! Creativity is great isn't it?
Here is the card I cased from the 2014/15 Stampin Up Annual Catalogue using Mosaic Madness.
Stamps: Mosaic Madness (c-130249, w-130246 p163 2014/15 Annual Catalogue), Happy Watercolor (c-1133191, w- 133188, p22 2014 Occasions Catalogue).
Paper: Whisper White, Soft Sky.
Ink: Black Stazon, Soft Sky.
Accessories: Big Shot, Modern Mosaic Embossing Folder, Beautiful Wings Embosslit, Project Life Corner Punch, Mosaic Punch, Pearl Jewels, 5/8" Whisper White Satin Ribbon.
The background was stamped using the watermark stamp from Happy Watercolor and embossed using the Modern Mosaic Embossing Folder.
The sentiment was stamped on the Whisper White Satin Ribbon using Black Stazon. Black Stazon ink is the ideal ink when stamping on other medium as it is a pigment ink and will not run.
So, when you run out of MOJO and your creativity has taken a holiday, use a magazine, or something you have seen on the interest to get that creativity going again.
Happy Stamping

Alphonse Allais was a peerless French humorist, celebrated posthumously by the Surrealists for his elegant style and disturbing imagination. Among other things, he wrote a series of wonderful stories about his friend Albert Caperon. In Allais's hands, "Captain Cap" became an adventurer and inventor, with a disdain for bureaucracy and a heroic thirst for cocktails. […]

Microsoft rolling more advertising for Xbox Live
by David Stellmack on26 April 2012
- font size decrease font size increase font size
15 to 30 second spots coming to TV and Video apps
Microsoft will be rolling out TV style advertising to the TV and Video streaming apps on Xbox Live. With Xbox owners continuing to increase the amount of time that they use their TV and Video apps on Xbox Live, it is only natural that Microsoft will attempt to cash in and drive more revenue from the platform.
The 15 to 30 second spots are already set to run within most TV and Video apps on the platform. While Microsoft spins the news as a good thing for advertisers who will no longer have to choose between TV and digital advertising, the reality is that Microsoft has earned 142 percent more from advertising revenue since 2010; so it is no wonder that they want to continue to make more money-selling advertising.
Despite the objections of many, the steady stream of advertising content on Xbox Live appears to be increasing and it isn't going away any time soon.

It was late August 1967, the 100th anniversary of "Seward's Folly." I had just completed my first winter and summer in the "Land of the Midnight Sun" as a member of the U.S. Army 64th Field Hospital at Fort Richardson just outside Anchorage. To this lad from Chicago, Mount McKinley had loomed large and majestic in the distance all those days and I had vowed to see her up close and personal before leaving this land of so many natural wonders.
Gary Gallagher, a former medic in my unit, now turned Army biathlon-team member, and I finagled weekend passes to take the train up to McKinley Park. We planned to backpack around the park searching for photo opportunities. After packing our sleeping bags and some munchies, we headed out to the railroad station in Anchorage.
There was nothing unique about boarding the train and heading up north. The crowd seemed to be composed of regular folks like ourselves, although not back-back laden. The day was gray, cool and comfortable.
Prior to boarding, I noticed that there really wasn't a "cow catcher" on the front of the diesel locomotive. Before arriving in Alaska, I had heard about the train being referred to as the "Moose Gooser" and had wondered how it must have looked. Any "goose" a moose would get from this train would be fatal.
Finding seats was an easy task and we settled in to watch the countryside roll by. Besides the train ride to Fort Knox for basic training, my previous rail excursions had been limited to the yearly grade school summer picnic trip. The Chicago and Northwestern Railroad had run steam locomotives for our outings to a suburban picnic grove along the Des Plaines River. As a youngster not used to train travel and unfamiliar with long distances, I had always thought we were headed out to some far off land like Wyoming. It was fun to look out the window and watch the smoke roll by.
This was much better than Wyoming. The leisurely pace of the train made for close scrutiny of the passing landscape and the occasional snooze. I had already seen much of the beauty of Alaska during the past year. The Kenai Peninsula with trips to Seward and Homer. Volcano smoke across the Cook Inlet at sunset. Spectacular displays of the northern lights near Big Delta. Hiking on Portage Glacier. The Matanuska Valley in summer while visiting the state fair.
My favorite way to view the scenery was to stand between two coaches and peer out the open window. It made one less barrier to the land outside. The smells of the countryside and the sound of running water in the nearby rivers contributed to the experience.
Using the Alaska Railroad map with mile markers helped keep track of where we were. While consulting the map, I noticed that the train began slowing down eventually crawling to a stop. Peering out the open window between cars and looking up toward the engine, I noticed an elderly couple exiting the train and walking off into the woods, packs on their backs. No habitation was in sight. One of the features of this train was that you could get on or off anywhere you liked. I had no idea if the couple lived just off the tracks or if they were just making a temporary journey into the wilderness.
The highlight of the trip north, almost a full eight hours, was passing over Hurricane Gulch, a football-field drop below the trestle. The breathtaking sight made one appreciative of sound engineering and structural design.
As we got closer to the McKinley Park station, I noticed flecks of white descending on the landscape. Oops! Gary and I had packed for a late summer outing and were now greeted by a dusting of early-season snow. Our solution was to put on every ounce of clothing we had packed. For me that meant wearing two sweatshirts and a towel as a hood. This arrangement worked for the duration, but it was an embarrassment nonetheless. Here were two guys who had spent the previous winter on maneuvers in -100 degree wind chills caught with their "pants down," so to speak.
The first order of business after exiting the train at McKinley Park Station was to fashion a lean-to and build a fire. We hiked into the woods not far off the tracks and accomplished our mission. The roaring fire soothed our embarrassment somewhat. Had it been any worse, we would have had to sheepishly make other arrangements. We chided ourselves, knowing full-well that we had violated the simplest of mottoes. Be prepared. Mother nature could have been much less forgiving. We managed a hot meal for dinner from our canned supplies. Settling into our Army-issue sleeping bags kept us toasty for the night. We shared stories of past adventures and drifted off to sleep.
We awakened the next morning to a carpet of light snow. Thankfully, my dual-sweatshirt arrangement kept me adequately warm as I exited my cozy cocoon. In his search for some fresh milk, Gary discovered that the camp store wasn't open, so breakfast consisted of dry corn flakes supplanted by blueberries picked from around our campsite.
Our day of hiking began by exploring various sites close to the park station that revealed any photographic possibilities. The weather had remained overcast, so any views of the big mountain were not forthcoming. That was a disappointment, but we tried to make the best of it. We found many interesting things and places that piqued our photographic fancy and clicked off a roll or two during the day. We also happened across a porcupine that decided to crawl up a tree to escape our attempts at close-up investigation.
Dinner that evening was interrupted by a pair of Canadian jays that teemed up to haul off a loaf of French bread. They had each grabbed one side of the untended bread and took off into the trees. It was an amazing site. We were a little upset, but applauded their ingenuity. We settled into our sleeping bags anticipating the ride back to Anchorage in the morning.
We found ourselves at the train station the next morning waiting for a train that never arrived. Apparently, the schedule had been changed due to the flooding of Fairbanks by the Tanana River. The train we needed to be on had already left. We had slept through it's passing. There was nothing left to do but to repeat the previous day's jaunt around the park and make sure we were at the station for the right departure time. We had enough film left to make it a pleasant day.
The "Moose Gooser" took us back the next morning. I paid more attention to details I missed on the way up, especially beaver lodges along the rivers we passed or followed. Closer toward the end of the trip, an amphibious plane had "buzzed" the train a few times. We pulled to a stop about thirty minutes later and picked up the pilot who had tied his plane to a tree on a small lake adjoining the tracks. Strange way to commute! I suspect the ceiling was too low for a landing up ahead. Better this than running out of gas with no place to land.
We arrived in Anchorage in late afternoon. Although
we missed the up close and personal look of the big mountain, we had enjoyed
all the sites that presented themselves. The "Moose Gooser" was our link
to yet another exploration of this vast and wonderful land.

Longmire is the kind of TV show that television used to be full of. The eponymous protagonist with a tough past and a ready quip, talking to people, unraveling a mystery and then riding off into the sunset. It's a type of television that is almost as endangered as the Western and Longmire is both.
Longmire will be compared to Justified, but it doesn't have much in common with Justified's hipster frontier. It's not knowing or self-aware. It isn't aimed at viewers who want a postmodern soap opera, a True Blood, Game of Thrones, Sopranos or Justified, that is far enough away from Days of Our Lives to make them feel clever for watching it. It's just a good old-fashioned sheriff cop show. And it's a good 40 minutes of television that reminds you that the old stuff works.
The cast isn't perfect, but it's close enough to it. The West fills out the landscape against which every great detective show takes place, whether it's New York City or Hawaii or Singapore. And the stories take, what is obviously a series of mystery novels, and condense them into something that plays on TV for 40 minutes or less.
There's Sheriff Longmire, the beleaguered lawman mourning his wife and fighting off a younger rival. Solving crimes by noticing things, instead of by calling in lab techs. There's Katee Sackhoff's tolerable Vic, as a homicide detective not working in a small country, who fills out the usual sidekick role. But mostly there's a wide frontier full of cowboy chic from Indian police to mounted elk heads, old wood and antique guns.
The pilot isn't anything you haven't seen hundreds of variations on. The mysterious murder victim whose life unrolls the secrets that led to his death. A young girl forced into prostitution. A setup and a gunfight. It's everything you've seen in Hawaii 5-0, Vega$, The Fall Guy, McCloud and a hundred other TV shows. But it's rendered clean and fresh. It's not original and it doesn't quite feel new, but it feels open in a way that most television doesn't anymore.
Longmire isn't great television, but it's good television. I don't give good odds for its survival, because like Terriers, the authentic detective show doesn't play on cable television anymore. A detective can be neurotic and weird, because cable is supposed to showcase screwed up people, but the story has to be there just as a soapy arc to showcase more weird allies and villains. It can't be something as clean and succinct as Longmire.
And yet Longmire is the perfect antidote to the CSI's, Law and Orders and NCIS's that took over free television and the hipster soaps that are one shade away from fifty shades of grey. It's television as it used to be and it still has appeal. That's why Tom Selleck's bland take on Jesse Stone has been a surprising success for CBS. USA has managed to make the occasional detective show work. FX blew it with Terriers. Maybe A&E can hit a home run with Longmire.

Tents are not that uncommon here in the Adirondacs.
I haven't hunted FROM the hammock per se. But a base camp has allowed me to stay overnight in the woods. And now, when out solo, I hang.
Tents are not that uncommon here in the Adirondacs.
I haven't hunted FROM the hammock per se. But a base camp has allowed me to stay overnight in the woods. And now, when out solo, I hang.
I don't know, I would sure do a lot of practice someplace. Shooting from a hammock would probably require some new skills. I can think of a lot of funny (to watch) things that could happen. Be sure your insurance is current.
I am thinking a hammock with the sides tied out and staked down so that it doens't swing,,would maybe work,,less movement with sides tied and staked down like a skeeterbeater pro or WBBB. Install loops on the sides and tie the sides down to keep the movement or swinging down to a minimum.
Closest thing I can think of is the tree lounge. Always wanted one of those
Why do you think I bought an ogee?........... The ultimate gun, archery blind....... I am sure it can be done.. Location is everything.. Tarp pitch is another well thought out plan......... Personally I would go with the smaller hammock chair and even a custom size smaller tarp when needed for most times... If you ghost into an area and sleep in that morning which the hammock usually does to me..... I wouldn't hesitate hunting from it.... I shoot longbow and recurve, have for all my life so, heavy canting if needed is no problem or shootin laying down for that matter... Must keep eyes open.......
We would be one step closer to world peace, if everyone slept in a hammock..
There is a climbing stand that is kinda hammocky.
The Tree Lounge.
closest i've come is spending the night in one and then walking from the campsite to my stand opening day.
another time, i had something hit me in the butt as it walked under my hammock, as i was hanging in the back yard (it's partly wooded with a creek in the back corner)... figure it was either a fox or a raccoon...
wouldn't try it though. recoil, and hanging a long-gun out the side would screw up your balance. i'd rather rest it on a box stand window sill or shooting rail on a climber.
I shoot a lot, I have been shooting competitively starting with small bore and biathalon since high school and currently shoot high power matches as well as biathalon and some other pistol comps. I honestly don't know if its possible to do what you are describing, and do it ethically, but it is very strange to spend countless hours of training just practicing over and over again things like npoa, respitory pause, bone support, dragging wood, sight focus, follow through, sling support, points of contact, bipod loading, rear bag use, and on and on and on only to be decent at your sport and then hear some ask about hitting a bull while wobbling from the seat of a freaking hammock....
If I ever have to take a shot from my hammock theres really only one animal I would ever see myself shooting, and its only got two legs and at that point id probably be shooting through the hammock as well as sitting on it.
I also just realized that it could actually have some very interesting recoil reducing properties as well as a fairly cool demonstration of newtons 3rd law. that part would be interesting I guess.

Although it's a relatively tame scenario, all it takes is one smart cookie to connect the dots and next thing you'll know, you'll have toddlers aspiring to be Sookie Stackhouse instead of Dora the Explorer.
Speaking of Ms. Perry, that flight has ended before it even took off. Apparently parents didn't want their children comparing their body parts to further the lesson. Maybe they'll have more luck when they show kids the benefits of lying when they reenact Desperate Housewives.

Health minister sacks AIIMS director, doctors erupt
Onkar Singh in New Delhi | July 05, 2006 15:30 IST
Last Updated: July 05, 2006 17:22 IST
The Union Health Ministry has recommended the removal of Dr P Venugopal as the director of the All India Institute of Medical Sciences.
Union Health Minister Dr Anbumani Ramadoss said, "The AIIMS governing body has decided to make a recommendation to the Government of India asking it to remove Dr Venugopal."
The decision comes on a day when the Delhi high court was hearing a writ petition that sought to restrain the Centre from removing Dr Venugopal from office.
Dr Ramadoss and Dr Venugopal have been at loggerheads over the latter's alleged soft stand towards the anti-reservation protestors.
Soon after the decision, doctors supporting Dr Venugopal went on a strike and staged a dharna. They were also seen sending off patients, saying they won't be treated.
"We have declared a strike. Resident doctors, students, scientists and faculty members have all gone on strike to protest the decision," said Dr Vinod Patra, a representative of the AIIMS Resident Doctors' Association.
He said Dr Ramadoss should take moral responsibility for the lives of 1800 patients in the hospital.

Foul Play was signed to Wild Pitch in the mid nineties, but their material got shelved when the label folded.
The only "official" tracks that surfaced from this group are 'That's How It Be (Boo Yah)' on DJ Riz – In The Mix '97 and 'Black Cloud' on DJ Eclipse – Wild Pitch Blends.
Foul Play was closely affiliated with Heltah Skeltah; Roc is featured on the 'Boo Yah' hook and also makes an appearance on the Doo Wop freestyle (which many are mistaking for a Boo Yah demo cut).
After the issues with Wild Pitch, Foul Play reformed as Black Caesar and got a deal with Tommy Boy Records. "What's Going On" was featured on the Nothing To Lose soundtrack. They also recorded a self titled album. However, this music is far from the original material which can best be described as R&B-esq beats with decent rhymes.
The T.R.O.Y. Blog is now happy to share the complete Wild Pitch demo; 11 cuts in total including 4 interludes.

It is a really good computer and would recommend it to ...
The idea is to simply take a selection of watercooling pumps, plumb them into the same watercooling loop cooling the same system under the same conditions and record the temperatures. The lower the temperature, the better.
XSPC Single 420 Bayres
Magicool MC-DCP450
XSPC Photon Laing D5
Flow Rate
7 Litres per minute
7.5 Litres per minute
20 Litres per minute
The 3 pumps we'll be comparing are XSPC Single 420 Bayres, Magicool MC-DCP450 and XSPC Photon Laing D5 Pump. As you can see from the table above, the XSPC bayres and Magicool pumps flow very similar amounts of coolant, we're expecting the results here not to vary too much, the result we're looking for is the comparison from the XSPC bayres and Magicool pumps to the XSPC Photon Laing D5, with the photon flowing nearly 3x the amount of coolant per minute, it will be interesting to see if it improves performance at all or not.
The cooling loop comprises of a XSPC EX240 dual Corsair 31-000403fan radiator, XSPC Raza CPU Waterblock and 90cm of 12/16mm green XPSC UV Tubing and simple distilled water. The pump for each test varies.
Each test was carried out by running Aida 64 for 15 minutes and then recording the CPU temperature in HW Monitor.
Time to dig our teeth in, the difference between the XSPC bayres and the Magicool pumps are as expected, barely any difference, with .5lpm being the difference and this being a small loop, we didn't really expect much, the main difference comes from the XSPC Photon, with this chucking out quite a hefty 20lpm, we expected there to be at least a bit of difference. To put it in light, A 2ltr bottle of your favorite soft drink will take just 6 seconds to fill using a Laing D5 pump.
A flow rate of 0.5L, the differnce between a XSPC 420 bayres pump and a Magicool MC-DCP450, effects the load temperature of 1°C, wilst a small amount is a worthy mention. The striking result here is a pump with a flow rate of 20L per minuite compared with one that flows 7L a minute brings the CPU temperayure down by a healthy 7°C. That is 7°C differnce by changing just the pump and nothing else.
Even 0.5Lpm made a notable difference to CPU load temperatures, granted it is only 1°C but it does further affirm that the flow rate of a water cooling pump does indeed make a difference to a water cooled system.

By Rhonda Campbell
If you're a serial entrepreneur, eBusiness ideas that you could turn into full-time jobs probably pop into your head regularly. But, ideas alone are not enough. If you don't know this now, you'll discover this fact soon enough.
Lackluster eBusiness ideas simply won't work
To succeed as an industrialist, you have to pursue the right ebusiness ideas before you can step away from traditional jobs. When cash flows aren't positive, when it's tough to attract and retain the talents of skilled contractors and freelancers and you get tired of working 12 to 14 hour days, passion and purpose (not to mention an iron will) can keep you going.
So, a first step to picking the right eBusiness ideas is to consider your passions, your beliefs and your purpose for taking on your physical expression. Align the business that you pursue with what you believe in most. It's these beliefs that you'll need during hard times.
Other things to consider are:
• Your specific job experience as well as your industry and market experience
• Professional and job connections that you have and the areas that these connects specialize in
• Resources to manifest your ideas, bringing them outside your mind into the physical realm
• Legal knowledge that you have as it relates to the eBusiness ideas
• You're ability to market eBusiness ideas
eBusiness ideas that work
These eBusiness ideas have helped make entrepreneurs thousands, some millions while working jobs they absolutely love. Operating the businesses online and offline could increase your brand exposure, putting you in contact with more consumers.
• Consultancy firm – Establish competitive rates and advise business leaders on practical ways to push up their profits, retain top talent and gain an edge on the competition.
• Marketing agency – Use your strong writing and marketing skills to create an agency that develops the very copy that strengthens other brands. If you're good, you'll need to hire other writers to take on client growth.
• Editorial agency – Add proofreading services to your company offerings to gain more customers.
• Web designing firm – Graphic arts and web design certifications add validity to your business. Showcase web designs (i.e. mobile websites, social media pages, brochures, catalogs) that you have created to gain clients.
• Wedding planning – You'll need relationships with photographers, DJs, caterers and designers to implement this idea.
• Virtual psychology – Offering therapy to clients virtually has grown. Regardless of the state you live in, you'll need to a degree and licensing to start this business. A deep care for people is also needed. People absolutely need to be able to trust you for this job to pay off.
• eCampus training – If you have a teaching degree, you could teach online college courses. You could also offer customized training (i.e. sales strategies) independently.
• Personal coaching – Firsthand experience equips you with the knowledge and the abilities to pass what you have learned to others. Succeed at a job (the bigger your success, the better) and you could coach others, offering them practical steps to achieve their short and long range goals.
• Financial advising – Series 7, Series 66 and other approved licenses are needed to offer professional financial advice. Earn your chops working as a financial advisor for an established firm. This is one of the ebusiness ideas that you need credentials for before you get started.
• Career counseling – Similar to personal coaching, career counseling gives you opportunities to give practical/actionable steps to adults, including college students, that will shorten the time it takes them to find jobs that they love, jobs that pays well.
• Online retail store – Ebay is just the beginning when it comes to the type of online retail store that you could profit from. Bookstores, jewelry shops, shoe stores, fashion boutiques and print companies are other online retail stores that you could earn a full-time income operating.
• Dietician / nutritionist services – A nursing degree and/or weight loss experience are backgrounds that could enable you to help people avoid diseases like diabetes, hypertension and other food related illnesses.
• Virtual assistant company – Administrative, data entry, time management, organizational and communication (both written and oral) skills are a must to run a successful virtual assistant company. Offer jobs to the best assistants, people who have worked for demanding start-ups and/or C-suite level executives.
• Call center – Start a call center and you could respond to customer inquiries, technical issues, etc. Adults who you hire into call center jobs need strong customer service experience, not to mention loads of patience.
• Bookkeeping / accounting firm – Software makes it possible for you to manage small business payrolls, taxes and other bookkeeping and accounting deliverables for individuals and companies.
• Employment verification firm – Many businesses conduct background investigations on new hires. This involves reviewing credit, employment and criminal reports on each new hire. Contracts with a few large firms could keep your verification company in the black for several years.

King Kong-sized monkeys were removed from the backs of Wade Phillips and the Cowboys with last season's 34-14 first-round playoff destruction of the Philadelphia Eagles.
Unfortunately for the Cowboys, they got spanked 34-3 by the Minnesota Vikings the next week in Minneapolis.
So was last season's playoff experience a bonus or a bust for Dallas?
Linebacker Keith Brooking offered a balanced view.
"We got one playoff win. Wow," he said last month. "What does that mean? It doesn't mean a whole lot in the grand scheme of things. But I think we took a step in the right direction and I think we can build off of that this year…That experience was vital, key, and we can build off of that."
The win over the Eagles was the first playoff triumph for Phillips and it was the Cowboys' first playoff victory since 1996.
"That was a big step for him and for our football team," Brooking said.
That's exactly right. Sure, Dallas got plastered by Minnesota. But beating the Eagles in a playoff game was as Brooking stated a vital step in the right direction for the Cowboys and a big reason why many preseason publications and national NFL writers predict they'll reach the Super Bowl this season.
"As long as we continue to have the mindset that nothing is going to be given to us, that you have to earn everything you get in this life, this game, hey, we are going to be just fine," Brooking said. "The sky is the limit for this football team, but we have got to put the work in to get it."
It's a safe guess Brooking will make sure they do.

There are some scenarios where you may want to only use failover. Some pfSense users have a secondary backup Internet connection with a low bandwidth limit, and only want to use that connection if their primary connection fails, and only while it is down. Failover pools allow you to do this. Another possible usage for failover pools is when you want to make sure a certain protocol or destination always uses only one WAN.
pfSense Multi-WANs: Configuring Weights
In pfSense 2.2, you can configure a weight/preference value to WANs. As described in an earlier article, you can set up a gateway group where the WAN interfaces have different priorities. In a gateway group, interfaces at the same tier have equal priority. Lower-numbered tiers have higher priority than higher-numbered tiers. For example, if we set WAN and WAN1 to Tier 1 and WAN2 to Tier 2, WAN and WAN1 will have equal priority. WAN2 will only come into use if both WAN and WAN1 are down. This is good, but what if WAN is our high-speed connection and WAN1 is a DSL connection, and therefore we want WAN to get the bulk of the traffic?
In this case, we can navigate to System -> Routing. The Gateway tab should be selected by default; if not, click on Gateway. Press the e button next to the entry for WAN. On the next page, press the Advanced button. The first entry in this section should be Weight. Using the dropdown box, change the weight to 2. The weight sets the ratio for use of a gateway. Once we change WAN's weight to 2, there will be two Tier 1 gateways (WAN and WAN2) with weights of 2 and 1 respectively. Thus, out of 3 connections, 2 will use WAN, and 1 will use WAN1, so WAN should get two-thirds of the traffic. Similarly, we could change WAN's weight to 3, so that WAN will get three-fourths of the traffic. When we are done changing the weight, we need to press Save at the bottom of the page and then press Apply Changes on the next page.
Note that this distribution is strictly balancing the number of connections. It does not take interface throughput into account. This means your bandwidth usage will not necessarily be distributed equally, though in most environments it works out to be roughly distributed as configured over time. This also means if an interface is loaded to its capacity with a single high throughput connection, additional connections will still be directed to that interface. Ideally you would want to distribute connections based on interface weights and the current throughput of the interface.

Steve Berrios, a master percussionist whose command of jazz, Latin and Caribbean folk music traditions figured prominently in the sophisticated rhythmic drive behind a wide range of jazz and Latin-jazz fusion bands, died on Wednesday at his home in Manhattan. He was 68. Todd Barkan, a record producer and friend, confirmed the death, but no cause was announced. Mr. Berrios was a fixture of the New York Latin jazz scene for 40 years, playing in groups led by Max Roach, Art Blakey, Dizzy Gillespie, Tito Puente and Grover Washington Jr. He was a founding member of the Fort Apache Band, a popular Latin jazz fusion ensemble led by Jerry Gonzalez.
Mr. Berrios grew up in Upper Manhattan with neighbors like Mr. Puente, Willie Bobo and Mongo Santamaria, all icons of Latin music and friends of his father, Steven Berrios, who was a professional drummer in dance bands. Starting his professional career at 16, the younger Mr. Berrios credited a host of mentors, including his father, with helping him develop both an authoritative style — described by fellow percussionist Eddie Bobe in 2002 as "reigning behind the beat" — and a sure-footed fluidity in moving from one musical idiom to another, matching his fluency in both English and Spanish. He began touring and recording at 19 in a band led by Mr. Santamaria, a Cuban-born conga player considered the best of his generation. He learned to play batá sacred drums — hourglass shaped instruments used in the Afro-Caribbean religion called Santería — from Julito Collazo, a prominent drummer in the band who later left music for a religious life. Mr. Berrios played conga, djembe, cowbells, marimba, timpani and glockenspiel in Dizzy Gillespie's band on a good-will tour of Cuba in the 1980s. From the drummer Max Roach, he said, he learned leadership. "I don't care who the leader of the band is," Mr. Berrios said in a 2007 interview with the online journal All About Jazz. "Once the tune is counted off, the drummer is the leader of the band. The drummer controls the dynamics, the tempo, the feel of the music, everything." Mr. Berrios recorded more than a dozen albums as a member of the Fort Apache Band, including "The River Is Deep," (1982) "Obatalà," (1988) "Rumba Para Monk," (1988) "Earthdance," (1990) and "Moliendo Café" (1991). "And Then Some!" (1997), one of the few albums he recorded at the head of his own group, was nominated for a Grammy for Best Latin Jazz Performance.
Mr. Berrios was born in Manhattan on Feb. 24, 1945, soon after his parents arrived in New York from Puerto Rico. He started learning to play the trumpet in junior high, but found his father's drum set a better fit. He is survived by four daughters, Aisha Jafar, and Merida, Cindy and Angela Berrios; and a son, Steve. In recent interviews, he reflected on being little known outside the world of jazz musicians and aficionados despite a long career. His personal semi-obscurity bothered him less, he said, than the general public disregard for drummers as artists. "Most people look at the drummer as an ignorant timekeeper that doesn't know anything about music or forms," he said in the 2007 interview. "But a drummer has to be as intelligent as the horn players. He has to know the vernacular, the history of the music." A horn player can take a break. A drummer never leaves. "We're like royalty," he said.
This above obituary appeared in the New York Times on July 27th.

– Paul Soles
In the early 1980s, Performing Arts Lodges was a gleam in the eyes of a group of Toronto performers at a time when Canada's entertainment industry had come of age and had exploded demographically into thousands who worked for a living in the performing arts and allied industries.
The group's goal was to create and sustain affordable housing and improved living conditions for those in the performing arts professions, some with disabilities or nearing the end of their careers, some still working, others alone or ill, many isolated from the industry they had worked in all their lives. While other countries possessed such havens for artists, this would be the first in Canada.
With inspiration and support from artists across the country, an initial needs survey of the industry was done and endorsements were solidified from national actors' unions, including ACTRA, The Actor's Fund of Canada and Equity, and the musicians' union, AF of M.
In 1986, Performing Arts Lodges of Canada was incorporated as a federal national charitable organization. Its first step was the sponsorship of a volunteer group, Supporting Cast, to help colleagues in need of assistance. PAL Canada obsessively continued their mandate to raise funds to develop chapters from Halifax to Vancouver.
In 1993, the PAL ideal became a reality with the opening of the first lodge in Toronto at 110 The Esplanade. As well as offering affordable housing, PAL Toronto provides services in the areas of health and well-being so that residents may live independently in a comfortable setting. Today PAL Toronto is filled to capacity with a vibrant population of artists of all ages, and from every discipline of the performing arts.
The PAL Toronto building is the model for others being developed, including the recently opened PAL Vancouver, and marks the first time in Canadian history that the performing arts profession has been recognized as a special sector of the population, qualifying for government support in a societal as well as artistic dimension – a coup for the arts in Canada.
"In a business where insecurity follows like a shadow throughout your career, old age promises nothing more than poverty line living at best. PAL Toronto was an idea whose time had come."
