I registered http://www.php-developer.org/ on March 15, 2009, and about one year later the website reached the top position for "php developer" in Google.com. The website also achieved a good ranking position for these important PHP related terms, further contributing to overall search engine traffic:
- php server variables
- preg_match generator
- php remove html entities
- php video streaming
- check your link popularity
The website's traffic has been steadily increasing. Currently it averages around 150 visitors per day, and about 4000 monthly visitors.
Like all other new websites, the traffic started from zero. By using "do it yourself strategies" for search engine optimization, I finally achieved the goal of reaching the 100 visitors per day mark.
This is a success story which I would like to share with any SEO newbie, and with those readers that are looking forward to starting their own websites and hoping to increase website traffic.
Strategy #1: Set Your Website's Goals and Assess Your Current Abilities
The road from zero traffic to hundreds of daily unique visitors is not an accident or an overnight success. But it is a product of hard work, determination, patience and goal setting.
Before I registered the domain, I did think deeply about my goals for starting a website. And then I related those goals to my current abilities (those things I can do well). I wrote down the following:
- My goal is to start a PHP website that showcases my skills in PHP programming.
- To make the website more useful, I need to show visitors the actual working application, with an open source PHP script which they can use, practice with and improve further.
- I also need to share my webmaster tips in other technologies, such as WordPress and Blogger, since I have some fairly good working experience with them.
Assessing your expertise is important if you are going to start your own website and become an authority. Your website will never achieve the level of authority status if you are starting a website that does not showcase your own skills and expertise.
You need to relate your goals to how they can help a website's reader, because the primary way you earn organic links is as a reward for good content.
Strategy #2: Register a Good Domain Name
After I formulated the goals, I started working on registering a good domain name. This topic can be quite complex, and the decision process is not simple and straightforward.
Remember that once you have registered the domain name, you cannot easily change it. You need to re-register another domain name, which can be costly.
It will be worse if the content has been online for a long time already. Doing 301 redirects or canonical tags is the right solution for changing a domain name, but you will not get back your previous traffic overnight.
Therefore, I highly recommend thinking twice before registering a domain name. Details on registering a good domain name that can contribute to becoming an authority are discussed in this article: http://tools.devshed.com/c/a/Domain-Name-Tips/Build-Domain-Authority-by-Choosing-the-Right-Domain-Name/
The following are the reasons I selected php-developer.org for my domain name:
- It directly relates to my content, services and expertise.
- It is short, easy to spell and remember. My readers can easily type it into a browser's address bar.
- The domain name contains a keyword that can benefit the site's search engine ranking and lets visitors know right away what my website's content is all about.
The length of time for which you register your domain name is not a factor in Google rankings; it's up to your budget. I renew mine every two years with Network Solutions. Of course, if you have the budget, you can register it for longer, provided you have a good, long-term plan for your website.
You can choose any good registrar you know and trust.
Strategy #3: Select a Blogging Platform Optimized for SEO
Once I registered my domain, I began to consider which website blogging platform I wanted to use. I used the following criteria:
- Easy to edit for onsite SEO – and since I have working knowledge of PHP, I should select a PHP- based CMS/template.
- A fairly good review and recommendations from SEO professionals.
- Secure and constantly updated.
- Optimized for blogging.
- Easy to set up.
- Free or open source.
Using the criteria listed above, I chose WordPress. The PHP template is simple to edit and customize. There are also a lot of plug-ins which you can use. Search engine professionals like Matt Cutts use and recommend WordPress. It is constantly updated by the developers. Most of the big hosting companies even have one-click installation for WordPress. And best of all, it is free.
{mospagebreak title=Catering to Your Visitors}
Strategy #4: Select a Web Host with Quality Uptime
There are certainly a lot of web hosts from which to choose. But selecting a web host with poor uptime can adversely affect your visitors' online experience. Also, a web host with poor uptime can translate to loss of visitors from search engines. Other things that you need to know when selecting a web host include:
- Reviews and ratings, which you can find abundantly online. You can start here.
- Get a paid hosting account. Free web hosting does not do any good if you aim is to increase traffic from search engines over the long term.
- Shared hosting is enough. You do not need a dedicated hosting or VPS account to get started.
- PHP-developer.org needed to use PHP as the server side script. So I needed to ensure that I could showcase PHP tools. This meant that any web host I would sign up with must use the Apache web server, the Linux operating system, PHP, and the MySQL database. Know what your technical requirements are going in, and consider them when evaluating a web hosting company.
Knowing how the Internet and web hosts work help me to understand things better when dealing with hosting-related terminology.
Strategy #5: Create Content for Visitors, and Add Useful Tools Periodically
I then started adding content on a periodic basis. I know it depends on the time I have available, but I make sure that the content and tools:
- Illustrate the complete process, especially if I am writing a short tutorial.
- Are original.
- Offer ways for the visitor to further practice what I've illustrated – so I offer links to source code they can download, tools, etc.
- Include useful screenshots to illustrate points for clarity.
When writing content and selecting post titles, I follow the tips in this tutorial on website content planning techniques.
And writing for long tail traffic in search engines can prove quite useful as well.
Strategy #6: Improving Onsite SEO and Website Performance
I did implement an onsite SEO for my php-developer.org WordPress-based website. I am doing onsite SEO on a continual basis (as well as adding content), looking for possible problems and then acting on what I find. Onsite SEO can be quite broad, so tackling a few steps to improve your site on a daily basis is recommended.
Below are the tips I use when implementing onsite SEO (this includes speeding up the website, implementing security and onsite SEO in general):

Strategy #7: Getting Quality Links to the Website
This is what I think is the most important strategy aside from building great content on your website. This is important when building authority and relevance for your website in the search engines.
I carefully examined the back links history using Google Webmaster Tools, and this is how I got certain quality and authoritative links:
Link from WordPress.org – http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/sort-searchresult-by-title/. I got this link because I wrote a WordPress plug-in. At this time, the plug-in has been downloaded 813 times, which of course makes me happy.
Link from phpdeveloper.org – http://www.phpdeveloper.org/news/12464. This is actually a product of a link bait strategy for the WordPress plug-in I wrote.
Link from Raintpl.com – http://www.raintpl.com/Links-152. I became so interested in this PHP template engine that I decided to write a review about it, and then post it on the site. As a result, the template developer thanked me and links to the content.
Links from big websites such as unsri.ac.id – http://jaketkuning.unsri.ac.id/. This is again the product of a link bait strategy. I did not ask for a link, but users will link to the tool if they find it useful.
I also implemented guest post strategies outlined here to get organic links: http://www.seochat.com/c/a/Link-Trading-Help/Organic-Link-Building-Tips-Guest-Blogging-for-SEO/
Of course, the improvements do not stop after one year of having implemented those seven strategies. I will continue to add more website content, improve the site's SEO aspects and get more links.

OpenOffice Council Shows LibreOffice Fans the Door
Oct 25, 2010 5:00 AM PT
With all the Oracle-related antics going on this fall, it seems safe to say that those of us in the FOSS community haven't really needed to watch much TV.
After all, we've laughed, we've cried, we've dropped our jaws in amazement, all just by observing the drama going on right around us with regard to OpenSolaris, OpenOffice.org and all the other projects whose fates were cast to the wind when Oracle purchased Sun.
So, we've got two forks of Oracle-owned projects -- OpenIndiana and LibreOffice, both intended to rejuvenate projects that had been left to stagnate in Redwood Shores. We also know that Oracle plans to stick with OpenOffice.org itself, rather than donating the brand to the Document Foundation.
We've seen Oracle sue Google over Java, of course. And more recently, we've also seen the emergence of a fork of MySQL called SkySQL.
'A Really Dumb Move'
Just when it seemed like things might be settling down in the world of OpenOffice.org vs. LibreOffice, however, the hostilities have now started up afresh, thanks to a request from the OpenOffice Council for members involved with LibreOffice to resign.
Let's hope the Hollywood producers are listening -- this saga has everything!
Not that Linux bloggers have taken to the latest news kindly, mind you -- and rightly so.
"A really dumb move" is what Computerworld's Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols called it, for example.
"Of course, this is all a piece of Oracle's 'my way or the highway' approach to all the open-source programs it inherited from Sun," Vaughan-Nichols went on. "Oracle may support open source in general, but it's doing a lousy job of doing what's best for its own open-source programs."
'Bad Puppy!'
Similarly: "Made me go get LibreOffice" was Yamaplos's response in the Computerworld comments.
"I am very disappointed with Oracle," agreed an anonymous reader. "All we can say to Oracle now is, 'Bad Oracle! Bad Puppy!'"
Indeed, "LibreOffice hasn't come a moment too soon," agreed AlexHudson on LWN.
Wave after wave of like-minded comments were soon washing onto the shores of the Linux blogosphere, so Linux Girl knew it was time to get a boat and start rowing.
'A Monumental Mistake'
"I think this will probably wind up being a good thing in the end," Hyperlogos blogger Martin Espinoza told Linux Girl. "LibreOffice will be freed from Oracle entirely.
"Everything Oracle touches turns into a problem; why not take their hands off one of our most important pieces of software?" Espinoza added.
Of course, "I'm not sure if Oracle understands the free software world enough to know what a monumental mistake they are making," Montreal consultant and Slashdot blogger Gerhard Mack opined.
'I Just Hope OraKill Doesn't Buy Novell'
Indeed, "when Oracle went after Google over Java, I made a joke about how OraKILL was trying to kill off everything they bought from Sun -- first the MySQL fork, then the Java flap. What next ... OpenOffice?" said Barbara Hudson, a blogger on Slashdot who goes by "Tom" on the site. "Now it's not so funny."
Oracle CEO Larry Ellison "doesn't seem to 'get' the open-source model -- that forks are a good thing," Hudson added. "They serve both as a feedback mechanism (the 'good bits' can always be added back to the mainline project) and as a sandbox for testing out new ideas without potentially alienating current users."
That's why "it's strange to hear about 'conflicts of interest' over people who serve on both boards," Hudson opined. "It seems to me you would WANT people who are in touch with what's happening with a major fork to be on board -- pardon the pun."
Then again, "Oracle is no stranger to conflicts of interest -- they just paid HP millions to settle their latest lawsuit," Hudson concluded. "I just hope OraKill doesn't decide to buy Novell next -- I *like* OpenSuse!"
'Oracle Doesn't Get Open Source'
Similarly, "this is a bad move by Oracle," agreed Chris Travers, a Slashdot blogger who works on the LedgerSMB project.
"Generally in the open source world, conflicts of interest really don't surface in the same way," Travers explained. "The only possible conflict of interest would be loyalty to Oracle as a company vs loyalty to the project as a whole.
"I've been through projects which pulled this sort of crap," Travers added. In fact, "it was one of the reasons for LedgerSMB to fork from SQL-Ledger."
'Better Off Without Them'
So, "this tells me that Oracle doesn't 'get' open source," Travers concluded. "They want large, prominent projects they can simply control. In the end, though, the most vibrant and successful open source projects are not rigidly controlled by a single commercial entity."
Blogger Robert Pogson agreed.
"Oracle does not seem to get Free Software," Pogson said. "Clearly LibreOffice and the world are better off without them."
Of course, here in the world of FOSS, no view is ever unanimous.
'I Wouldn't Have Been as Nice'
The LibreOffice people were "RUDE," Slashdot blogger hairyfeet opined. "There is no other way to put it!
"Put yourself in Oracle's shoes," hairyfeet went on. "You just bought this MASSIVE company, you have dozens of products you're gonna have to sort through, dozens of jobs and titles to decide whether to keep, integrate into what you have or cut loose, and then these twerps come out of nowhere and say, 'We don't like you, so we are taking your software... BTW we would like the copyrights and patents too, and if you're real nice, we'll let you sit on OUR board and have a little say.'"
Oracle "hasn't had time to do anything!" hairyfeet exclaimed.
"I personally wouldn't have been as nice as Oracle," he concluded. "I would have told them which bridge they could jump off of, followed by having my army of lawyers descend upon them like the hammer of God if they so much as used a single screencap without written permission. That is NOT the way one does business."

It\'s no secret that Geroge Soros thinks Germany has bungled the response to Europe\'s debt crisis with its insistence on across-the-board austerity. On Wednesday, the billionaire hedge-fund legend said he feared the European Union was headed for \"long-lasting stagnation\" and that the pan-European institution might not survive it.
\"My hope is that Germany is going to change and realize that that the policy of austerity is counterproductive,\" Soros told the BBC. Germany\'s collective memory is of inflation, Soros said, referring to the hyperinflation that followed World War I and is often described as sowing the seeds for the rise of the Nazis. As a result, German policy makers \"continue fighting inflation when the threat is deflation,\" Soros said.
The billionaire, in a separate event in London, said Germany\'s decision to remain in the euro zone \"fulfilled my worst expectations,\" CNBC reported. A German exit, which he had advocated previously, would have resulted in a tough but difficult \"quick fix\" that would have let the region rebalance.
Instead, the EU has been transformed into a \"creditor-debtor relationship\" that is endangering the organization.
Soros is promoting his new book, \"The Tragedy of the European Union.\"
While Soros is echoing past complaints, some of his recent predictions about Germany and Europe haven\'t panned out. Soros in September 2012 predicted that the euro-zone recession would intensify and engulf Germany within six months. Instead, the euro zone slowly returned to meager growth in 2013.
That didn\'t appear to hold him back much, though. The man who became famous by scoring a cool billion on his bet against the British pound back in 1992 earned an estimated $4 billion in 2013, in part by shorting the Japanese yen, according to Forbes, which put him atop the publication\'s list of top earning hedge-fund managers.

I was prodded into the free-lance-writer business by the Oct. 19, 1987, stock-market crash. Having been employed as a writer at a major media conglomerate for many moons, I had collected a substantial stake in the company's profit-sharing plan. So when the Dow fell 508 points that day and my stake shrank by over 20 percent, I was hysterical. But then I discovered something quite amazing about my profit-sharing plan. Its rules stated that when you left the company's employ, your share got paid out at the values in effect at the end of the preceding month. In other words, if I retired by Oct. 31, 1987, my payoff would be at Sept. 30 prices. Dazzled by this magical opportunity to sell at pre-crash prices, I negotiated a contract with my bosses to continue scribbling on a free-lance basis, and on Nov. 1, I became a "vendor" of various editorial materials.
The first thing a fellow notices after attaining vendor status is that it is harder to get paid in a timely fashion. As a writer-employee, I had had my paychecks deposited instantly and automatically in my bank account. When I became a contract writer, I got paid only after somebody–initially it was a secretary in the business department–put in a requisition for my pay. This seemed odd and unnecessarily complicated, since my new contract called for me to receive the same amount every month, on the first of the month. It seemed doubly odd when months came where the secretary forgot to put the requisition through. Or, alternatively, where the secretary put the req through but then couldn't remember whether the blessed event had taken place.
To be fair, there was only one "did-we-pay-you-this-month?" call. But my diary shows endless fretting and nagging on my part as the sixth or the seventh or the 12th of the month arrived and the check did not. The situation improved only marginally when the monthly requisitions ceased and my payment problems were essentially turned over to the corporate Accounts Payable department. The payments were still generally late, and once, not having been paid as of the 12th, I made the unsettling discovery that I had somehow mysteriously dropped out of the AP payment program altogether. In the summer of 1989, apparently responding to my endless lamentations about late payments, AP started paying me ahead of time, i.e., a few days before the first of the month. This was naturally fine with me until I realized, late in December, that I was now in danger of getting a federal form 1099 showing 13 monthly payments and requiring more taxes sooner. So I complained about this prospect, and before long we were back to the default situation: chronic late payment. I do not believe–or at least cannot prove–that this signifies a cash-management play-the-float strategy by senior accounting executives. And yet, there is this nagging question: Would Accounts Receivable be as relaxed as Accounts Payable plainly is about money regularly changing hands a week or more later than had been contractually specified?
Speaking of form 1099, I have still not decided what to do about the one I got some weeks back from Slate. I had yearned to write for this online journal, and was delighted last fall when editor Michael Kinsley gave me a shot at an article. It was about the huge losses taken by the Nevada bookmakers on the Holyfield-Tyson fight, and I was delighted all over again when the article was "posted" Nov. 22, only seven days after I had taken on the assignment. How fast it all goes online! What a marvelous contrast to the slowpoke print media! Except for Microsoft's payment, which arrived on Jan. 2, 1997, in an envelope bearing a Dec. 28, 1996, postmark. The case law says, plain as day, that this is "constructive receipt" in 1997, and the question I face is whether a sane person should fight to uphold this principle after the Microsoft business-side characters have nonchalantly stuck him with a form 1099 showing those earnings as 1996 income.
F ree-lance writers must also deal with a lot of paperwork and printed forms plainly designed with other kinds of vendors in mind. These other vendors are not guys sitting alone at home writing articles. They are real companies, with legal departments and human-resources departments. And they are equipped to answer questions about the possibility that the enterprise is a "small business concern" as defined by Section 3 of the Small Business Act–to mention only one of many thorny issues raised in a five-page form that landed on my desk several weeks ago.
Leading up to its arrival was a telephone query from an editor of a financial journal that had recently published some of my thoughts on the stock market: "Did we ever send you the paperwork we need so we can pay you?" Naively assuming that this would be a request for my mailing address and Social Security number, I volunteered to provide this information right then and there, on the phone. But no, the publisher of the financial journal–again, it was a huge Fortune 500 company–needed to know much, much more about me. A special toughie was the request for my "Dun & Bradstreet SIC number." I assumed at first that this was some variant of the "principal business or professional activity code" that free-lancers are required to enter on federal Schedule C (where you report "business profits").
Like thousands of others in my line of work, every year at tax time I wrestle with the issue of which four-digit number to write in on this schedule, the instructions for which mention a huge number of self-employment scenarios, none of them envisioning a guy creating copy in his den. Generally, I have ended up choosing No. 7880, meaning that I provide "other business services," which leaves me feeling somewhat marginalized but looks as though it would at least be defensible in a showdown with the IRS. But that was my four-digit code. The D&B codes, as I ascertained after extensive cruising around on the Internet, had eight or (in some accounts) nine digits and provided much more detailed information about one's place in the economy. But how to find out one's number? Instructions that came with the form counseled checking with "your tax department" or–an even less realistic option for a fellow needing to get some work done–the local office of the Small Business Administration. In the end, I brazenly sent the form back without any D&B code, and one of these days I hope to get paid for my musings on the market.
As a New York City resident, I get to pay city income taxes twice. It's incredible, and it works this way. The 1099s one garners during the year are of course cumulated and reported on federal Schedule C, then carried over to New York state form IT-201, which takes you through the state and then the city income-tax calculations. The combined marginal rate for the state and city taxes was recently running around 11 percent, which is bad enough. But when you have paid it all, the New York City Department of Taxation and Finance taps you on a figurative shoulder, reminds you that the city also has an Unincorporated Business Tax, and states firmly that free-lance writers gotta pay this too. The UBT covers the same earned income paid to the city on form IT-201, and this time around, the bill comes to a flat 4 percent (after $10,000 of deductions and exemptions).
Not one employed journalist in 100 has even heard of this ghastly double dip or experienced the surge of fury I felt when I called up the Authors' League in 1987 to ask why they weren't screaming about it. The woman I spoke to coolly asked how much I made as a writer, judged the amount too high to warrant condolences, and said I should be glad to pay my share. She was obviously not a vendor.

Fact Sheet
April 14, 2012
What Is Fatigue?
Fatigue is tiredness that does not go away when you rest. It can be physical or psychological.
With physical fatigue, your muscles cannot do things as easily as they used to. You might notice this when you climb stairs or carry bags of groceries.
With psychological fatigue, it may be difficult to concentrate for as long as you used to. In severe cases, you might not feel like getting out of bed in the morning and doing your regular daily activities.
Is Fatigue Important?
Fatigue is one of two main ways the body warns you about a problem. The other warning is pain. Most of us pay attention to pain, and stop whatever causes us pain. We don't pay as much attention to fatigue. One reason might be that fatigue sneaks up on us: it usually gets worse so slowly that we don't even notice.
People with HIV and fatigue tend to get sicker faster than people without fatigue. Also, ongoing fatigue can weaken the immune system. People with HIV should find out what is causing their fatigue and treat it.
How Do I Know if I Have Fatigue?Fatigue can start and increase very slowly. If you feel tired even after you rest, talk with your health care provider about fatigue. Give your health care provider as much information as possible. This will make it easier to know if you are fatigued, and what might be causing it. The following questions are good to think about before you talk to your health care provider about fatigue:
What Causes Fatigue, and How Is It Treated?Fatigue can be caused by many different factors. Work with your health care provider to find the cause of your fatigue and the best way to treat it.
The Bottom LineFatigue is a very common condition for people with HIV. Untreated fatigue can make HIV disease progress faster.
It can be very difficult to figure out the cause of fatigue. Several different factors can cause the same symptoms. Blood tests can identify some causes but not others. The more information you can give your health care provider, the easier it will be to determine what is causing your fatigue and how to treat it.

Indianapolis Colts cornerback Greg Toler is being held out of the team's offseason workout program as recovers from offseason hernia surgery.
According to Mike Wells of ESPN.com, Toler says he's "fully healthy" but the Colts training staff is taking a cautious approach to his recovery anyway.
"I think the trainers want to slow roll me back into going full speed since I haven't really done anything since Week 10. I only know one meter, and that's go," Toler said.
Toler appeared in just nine games for the Colts last season. After playing the first seven weeks, he was sidelined for the next seven games due to a hamstring injury. He returned to the lineup for the final two games of the regular season and Indianapolis' playoff game against the Kansas City Chiefs. However, Toler re-injured the hamstring in the game and was placed on injured reserve.
Toler finished last season with 23 tackles and one interception.

The first day that NBA teams are officially allowed to sign free agents and make trades is also the first day of the six-day window where teams are allowed to use the amnesty provision to cut players and remove them from their salary cap. The Washington Wizards are still undecided about whether to use the amnesty provision on one of the top league-wide candidates, forward Andray Blatche, according to sources.
Washington is exploring several options for Blatche, who has fallen out of favor both with fans in D.C. and with the organization after signing a contract extension in 2010 that reworked his existing contract into a five-year deal worth $35 million. The Wizards could opt for amnesty, which would remove the remaining $23 million the team owes Blatche from its salary cap, freeing up resources that the team will need in the next few years to extend players like John Wall and this year's first-round pick, Bradley Beal.
The Wizards could trade Blatche immediately. Or, they could continue to explore trade options while removing Blatche from the daily workings of the team–in essence, paying him his salary to stay away. The Pacers used a similar strategy in 2008, forcing guard Jamaal Tinsley to sit out the whole season while not playing after he clashed with then-coach Rick Carlisle and the organization.
But asking owner Ted Leonsis to write that $23 million check is a big ask, sources allow, even though Blatche is not in the team's future plans. The Wizards have remade their power forward group in the last year and a half, drafting Jan Vesely with the sixth pick in the 2011 Draft and acquiring Emeka Okafor from New Orleans last month (along with small forward Trevor Ariza) for Rashard Lewis. Second-year forward Trevor Booker also played extremely effectively in spots the last couple of years. Washington has Ariza and Chris Singleton penciled in to take the lion's share of minutes at small forward. (more…)

Origin PC Now Offering Frostbyte 360 All In One Liquid Cooling System
Subject: Cases and Cooling | February 6, 2012 - 02:49 PM | Tim Verry
Tagged: water cooling, triple radiator, origin pc, liquid cooling, hsf, cpu block
Origin PC has started offering a unique water cooling solution called the Frostbyte 360. The self contained water loop includes a CPU water black, pump, tubing, and a triple 120mm radiator. The company claims that the new cooler has allowed their overclocking teams to reach overclocked processor speeds of 5.2 GHz on their systems. Kevin Wasielewski, the Origin PC CEO and co-founder has stated that the Frostbyte 360 is "a maintenance free liquid cooling solution, Origin PC customers can enjoy top-end CPU performance at a fraction of the cost."
Although his claims that "traditional" watercooling systems for extreme overclocking required hundreds in not thousands of dollars of components is a bit extreme, it is a hobby that can get expensive.
Especially if you are only interested in cooling a CPU, the various "all in one" solutions like the Corsair Hydro series and the Antec Kuhler series can be a viable option. What is interesting about the Origin offering; however, is the inclusion of a triple 120mm radiator in the loop, which is more than the competition and should be plenty of radiator space to keep your processor nice and chilly even when overclocked.
According to Origin, features of the new Frostbyte 360 water cooling system include:
- Micro-channel copper CPU block
- 360mm (3x120mm) high efficiency copper radiator
- Embedded temperature sensor measures copper surface temperature accurate to within 1°C
- Factory sealed, maintenance free operation
- Silent pump
- Lightweight
- Thermal resistance as low as 0.085 C/W
- 1 to 3 year warranty on PCs that include the new cooler.
Currently, the new Frostbyte 360 sealed loop water cooler is available in Origin PC's Genesis series computers, which start at $1,599 USD and can be added to the computer in the configurator. UPDATE: The Frostbyte 360 is not sold as a standalone product; however, current and previous Origin PC customers can purchase it as an upgrade.
It will be interesting to see if the the company will take on the Corsair and others more directly by selling the Frostbyte 360 cooler itself to customers. Although not expandable like a traditional water cooler, it is also less costly and should not require any maintenance for at least a few years. Would you be interested in using one of these 360 rad sealed loop coolers in your builds?

Is drinking water sold in vending machines safe for people with HIV?
Nutrition Watch
November 1998
A note from TheBody.com: The field of medicine is constantly evolving. As a result, parts of this article may be outdated. Please keep this in mind, and be sure to visit other parts of our site for more recent information!
Early in September the local news media reported that the water sold in vending machines is not as safe as we would like to believe.
According to these reports, as many as 62 percent of the machines which advertised "purified" water contain dissolved solids exceeding state limits and 93 percent contain bacteria levels 163 times greater than typical tap water. The cause is said to be due to a lack of maintenance on the machines.
Los Angeles County supervisor Michael Antonovich has initiated a motion calling for a county study. While the Department of Health Services plans to begin to test the machines located outside grocery stores, Director of the Department of Health Services for Los Angeles County Jonathan Fielding said there is no immediate public health threat.
People with HIV infection would best act on the side of caution. People infected with HIV are 200 to 900 times as susceptible to food- and water-borne pathogens than people who are not infected with HIV. This means that people with HIV should drink water that promises to be safe and avoid water from vending machines.
Safe water is water that has been brought to a rapid boil for one minute, distilled water, or water that has gone through reverse osmosis or a filter meeting the National Sanitation Foundation's Standard 53 for Cyst Reduction. Unless it meets these guidelines, bottled water or water from a vending machine is not guaranteed to be safe.
Your Medicare policy may cover glucose test strips
There has been some confusion about Medicare coverage of blood glucose test strips, lancets and meters whether or not you use insulin to control diabetes. Keep the following in mind when using these benefits:
Medicare is also to cover diabetes outpatient self-management. Precise rules have not yet been defined and are expected to be published by the Health Care Financing Administration in late fall. Request that your physician prescribe diabetes education from a registered dietitian who is experienced in diabetes and HIV nutrition.
Medicare beneficiaries or family members can find out more information about these benefits by calling a Medicare hotline at (800) 638-6833, the American Diabetes Association at (800) 342-2383 or visiting the ADA web site at http://www.diabetes.org
Using antibacterial soap may be risky for people with HIV
Advertising for antibacterial soaps and cleaning may sound convincing, but remember, it is ultimately a marketing strategy for increasing their sales.
What the ads do not state is that products like antibacterial soaps increase the risk of developing bacteria that will eventually be resistant to those agents and become even stronger. Members of the HIV community understand the seriousness of resistance to an active ingredient -- be it drug or cleanser. It is not a frivolous concern.
Washing with hot soapy water is enough. It will do the job of cleaning counters, utensils, floors, dishes and hands. Soap and water will keep you safe from germs, especially if you put some good ol' elbow grease into it and scrub. It is the mechanical action of water, soap and brushing that really loosens the dirt and bacteria off surfaces and the rinse water carries it away.
The Health & Nutrition Letter of Tufts University (October 1998) suggest ways from overusing antibacterial agents.

Author Notes: I usually make this with apples and cranberries but for this I used some of the gorgeous peaches available seasonally and for contrast I added some sour cherries. I had a bottle of preserved sour cherries that I used but you can use fresh red, sour or rainier cherries, The peaches and cherries go beautifully together and the hint of cinnamon compliments both fruits. I adapted the recipe for the pie crust from Martha Stewart. —sdebrango
Makes: 1 dozen
2 1/2
cups all purpose flour
teaspoon kosher salt
teaspoon packed brown sugar
ounces cold unsalted butter cut into small pieces (If you want to mix lard or shortening with the butter I would do 6 oz butter and 2 oz lard or shortening)
tablespoons ice cold water (more or less as needed for a cohesive dough)
ripe peaches peeled and sliced
cup pitted sour cherries
tablespoons cornstarch or flour
pinch of salt
cups sugar (taste to determine how sweet you want it)
teaspoon cinnamon
tablespoons butter (for dotting on fruit)
turbinado sugar for sprinkling on pie crust
egg and a splash of water for egg wash
In This Recipe
- To food processor add the flour, salt and sugar, pulse once. Add your butter and pulse until it resembles crumbs. Dump into mixing bowl and add 6 tbs of cold water add the rest a tbs at a time mixing with fork until you have a cohesive dough you know your dough is ready when you grab a handful and it forms into ball without crumbling. Form into two disks and wrap each in plastic wrap or put into a ziplock bags. Refrigerate at least an hour or overnight.
- Place your peeled and sliced peaches in a bowl, add the sugar, pinch of salt, cinnamon and cornstarch or flour. Stir to combine. Cherries are added later.
- Pre-heat oven to 375. You will need a 15x10 1/2 inch rimmed sheet pan.Spray with cooking spray and then line with a double layer of parchment paper making sure there is at least a 2-3 inch overhang on each end.
- Remove one disk of pastry from refrigerator. While you are working on one half keep the other in the refrigerator. On floured surface roll dough into a rectangle.Dough should be approximately 16x12. Place dough on sheet pan by flouring and loosely rolling the dough onto your rolling pin and carefully placing on the pan, trim if necessary so that the dough just touches the top of the riim of the pan. Add your peaches and spread in an even layer, spoon cherries sporadically on the peaches and dot with small pieces of butter. Set aside and roll out the top layer of pie crust same dimensions as the bottom layer. Dust with flour roll loosely on rolling pin and unroll onto the pie. Pinch edges together and tuck in at the rim of the pan. Crimp to make sure it is sufficiently sealed.
- Brush with egg wash, then poke multiple small holes (I used the smallest end of a small funnel) in top crust. Sprinkle with turbinado sugar and return to refrigerator to chill, then bake until golden brown approximately 45-55 minutes depending on your oven. Let pie COOL COMPLETELY before attempting to move from sheet pan to cutting board. To remove hold the ends of the parchment and lift the pie. You can also remove the pie by laying parchment on top of the pie place a cutting board on top and invert, remove the parchment from bottom then quickly invert onto another cutting board, It was easier than lifting the pie out and it didn't break.

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
Palestinian forces operating out of the Gaza Strip fired at least one Grad missile into south-central Israel late Wednesday night.
The missile landed north of the coastal city of Ashdod, near the central town of Kiryat Malachi. It did not cause any injuries or damage.
Israel Radio reported that there may have been another two missiles fired at the same time, but the Israeli army has not confirmed that.
The attack marked the time missiles were fired from Gaza since Israel conducted a prisoner exchange with the region's Hamas rulers last week. In that deal, Israel secured the releaes of abducted soldier Gilad Shalit by freeing 1,027 jailed Palestinian terrorists. Hamas has vowed to lure and abduct more Israeli soldiers so that it can trade them for the rest of the Palestinian terrorists sitting in Israeli jails.

A DREAM has come true for a budding film maker at the age of 24.
Luke Hupton started filming when he took a media course at a college in Salford and has just completed and premiered his first feature film.
Memory Lane was filmed around Luke's hometown of Astley, with Tyldesley Cemetery and Chowbent Chapel in Atherton both making an appearance, and was shown for the first time at the Cornerhouse in Manchester last week.
"It was just a dream come true to see my film on the big screen," said Luke.
"It's been a long process – we raised £15,000 through kick-starter and match funding and filmed between September 7 and 24 last year. We finished the film two days before it screened on April 26.
"It was very emotional. There were a lot of people there who had been involved in the film but never seen any of it. Even my college tutor came down which was amazing because she was the person who gave me the confidence to do this."
He describes the film as a whimsical northern fairytale, about a divorced GP who is gifted a bespoke door that sends him back 25 years into the past to his 27th year in search of the only woman he ever loved.
"We got some really good reviews from the screening so now we will send them off to film festivals across the world and see what happens," he said.
Making a cameo in the film is the Rev Brenda Catterall, from Chowbent Chapel, who conducts a wedding in the film.
"I have done hundreds of weddings but this was a first. I've never been nervous before," she said.
"Seeing the film was amazing though. he has done a great job and is clearly very talented."

text: Women at Work: Manual Labor > Pre- and Non-industrial Labor (volume 1) The papers of the Duren family of Woburn, Massachusetts, include an account book that records payments for domestic help between 1841 and 1856, as well as deeds for lands owned by women in Woburn, Massachusetts.

On Nov. 11, 2011, farmers, business owners, nurses and people from all walks of life and backgrounds took a moment to answer one question: "What does it mean for you to have a job?" Their answers were captured for the One Day on Earth project, which asked citizens around the world to help film 24-hours in the human experience. Forty-eight flip cameras provided by One Day on Earth were sent to our World Bank country offices around the globe. So what did people around the world have to say about their work?
Regina Sheriff, who works in Sierra Leone at her own cocoa plantation in Kpandebu village, tries to correct the false notion that "what men can do, women cannot equally do."
At a World Bank-financed project in the Philippines, Marjorie can buy and sell Balut or boiled fertilized duck egg. The money she makes helps to pay for her children's schooling and things around the house. And in the Krygyz Republic, a seamstress describes how a similar project helps fund her workshop and feed her family.
Watch a sneak peek above of our filmmakers at work on 11/11/11. This excerpt includes footage from Egypt, Zambia, Thailand, Nepal, Serbia, Romania, Iraq, and many other countries. It's all from One Day on Earth.
A few facts to leave you with: Worldwide, women make up the majority of unpaid workers. Only 15 percent of landowners and 1in 5 lawmakers in the world are women. One out of every 10 births is from a mother aged 15 to 19 -- almost all of them in developing countries. Violence against women is still widespread. It's time to increase women's economic opportunity and their voice in decision making. It's time to #think EQUAL.
Stay tuned for the final World Bank One Day on Earth video in early 2012.
Here are some photos from our One Day on Earth participants from Philippines, Uruguay, and Tanzania. More photos on Facebook

At one point Saturday afternoon, the entire USC football team turned the sideline at Sam Boyd Stadium into one giant mosh pit.
And then the whole lot of them plunged in — players, training staff members, coaches and everyone else associated with the Trojans — jumping and gyrating and body-slamming each other as they whooped up the Michael Jackson Moonwalk routine Nelson Agholor did on a first-half touchdown reception against Fresno State in the Las Vegas Bowl.
If you didn't know beforehand, the Trojans were in Las Vegas, not El Paso, it was abundantly clear by then.
If you were skeptical prior to Saturday that they were actually happy and motivated to play in the Las Vegas Bowl, the dance party they threw after Agholor's touchdown left no doubt.
But if you're among the especially incredulous, the scoreboard provided the best closing argument of all.
The Trojans didn't just beat Fresno State, they dominated.
From beginning to end and every minute in between.
Cody Kessler, who began the season alternating quarterback duties with Max Wittek, threw for a career-high 344 yards and badly outplayed Fresno State counterpart Derek Carr, widely considered a high first-round pick in next May's NFL draft.
The USC defense held Carr to just 217 yards passing and the high-powered Bulldogs offense to 254 yards, well off their usual mark.
And USC wide receiver Marqise Lee, whose numbers plummeted this year after an early season knee injury, was finally healthy and finally back to his normal self with seven catches for 117 yards and two touchdowns.
And the best part of all, they had fun doing it.
"Everyone was excited to be here. Excited to go to a bowl game and excited to play a great Fresno State team," USC offensive tackle Kevin Graf said. "We were focused the whole time here and it showed."
Score one for good karma.
A year after turning their nose up on the Sun Bowl and then getting kicked up and down the field by Georgia Tech, the Trojans treated the Las Vegas Bowl like the BCS National Championship game, and played like it.
They didn't just pretend they were happy to be here, they acted like it.
And unlike the gloom and doom act Lane Kiffin put on last year in El Paso, interim coach Clay Helton didn't stand off by himself wearing a black hoodie and sullen look while setting a dismal tone for an uncaring performance.
Instead he was engaged, active and demonstrative in what might be his only shot at a head coaching gig.
Amazing what positive disposition does for a team.
And it just goes to show how sometimes you get what you put into things.
A year ago, the Trojans trashed the good people of El Paso and disrespected the hard work they put into a bowl game they consider one of the jewel events of their city.
USC didn't want to be there, not after coming into the season as the No. 1 team in the country and setting their sights on Miami and the national championship game.
But things quickly went sideways and by the time bowl season came around, the Trojans found themselves in El Paso rather than South Beach.
"We were in a very bad predicament last year with all the expectations and how it ended up," USC safety Dion Bailey said.
You expected them to be disappointed, but there was no excuse for their pitiful behavior toward El Paso or the utter disdain they showed against Georgia Tech.
"We just didn't handle the situation well," Bailey conceded.
The behind-whipping they absorbed was an apt punishment.
The Trojans acted like jerks and got what they deserved.
But what a fantastic teaching opportunity it turned out to be.
Consider Saturday their final exam.
One they aced by the end of the first half.
"This was our redemption game," USC guard John Martinez said. "Considering everything that's happened to us this year, it was huge redemption for us."
Had you taken a poll at the beginning of the season, the Las Vegas Bowl likely wouldn't have been USC's destination of choice.
Then again, nobody goes into a season hoping to finish in fifth place in their conference.
But the embarrassment of the Sun Bowl and the trials and tribulations of a season in which the Trojans have gone through three coaches and will answer to a fourth beginning tomorrow had a humbling affect.
To the point that, winning a 10th game was appreciated as if the Trojans had just won a national championship.
"We've been through so much here that it means the world for us to get this 10th win," Graf said.
Just as importantly, they wanted to shed the arrogant image that followed them home from El Paso last year.
They altered that narrative Saturday.
And had a blast doing so.

Lawmaker: Tweak Constitution to affirm gun rights
Amendments would deflect leftist plan to register firearms
WASHINGTON – A state lawmaker in Montana is proposing amendments to the U.S. Constitution to deal with the proposal by Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., that would require Americans to register their guns and, critics say, would lead to confiscation.
Feinstein's idea has been labeled "treason" on a White House petition site and has earned the ire of Rep. Jerry O'Neil, R-Columbia Falls. O'Neil told WND he would like to see changes made to protect state's rights and rights protected by the Second Amendment.
He said he's starting to push for the state of Montana to adopt two new constitutional amendments to protect firearm ownership and national sovereignty.
"I am asking for the Montana legislature to request an amendment to the U.S. Constitution, to amend the Commerce Clause," he said.
He said that in Article 1, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution the word "among" would be replaced with "between" so that it reads, "Congress shall have power … to regulate commerce with foreign nations, and interstate commerce between the several states, and with the Indian tribes."
"States have the right to do what they wish inside their own borders," he said.
And referring to firearms, he said, "It gives the states the right to make whatever guns they want so long as [firearms] stay inside the own borders."
Are you interested in self-defense? Check out all these DVDs and books in WND's Superstore.
Additionally, O'Neil said, in reference to national sovereignty and more specifically the Small Arms Treaty, he wants to insert in Article 2, Section 2 of the Constitution the phrase "subject to this Constitution." It would, therefore, state: "The president … shall have the power, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, to make treaties, subject to this Constitution, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur."
O'Neil said the insertion is essential because of the growing power of international treaties and the fact that too often, in his opinion, international treaties are implemented and used to override the U.S. Constitution.
O'Neil said that with these changes, the government "cannot amend the Constitution via fiat."
Under Article 5 of the U.S. Constitution, state legislatures can submit proposals for amendments to the Constitution, and it is O'Neil's hope that the Montana legislature will take up his ideas.
Feinstein's move was a reaction to the school shooting in Connecticut in which 20 children and six adults were victims.
O'Neil said, "The Connecticut shooting came at an opportune time for her."
He added, "Sen. Feinstein has been working on an assault weapons ban for at least eight years."
Keep your gun rights: Sign new petition
"It will not make a significant dent in the murder rate of the United States," he said.
O'Neil attributes Feinstein's move to restrict firearm ownership to an ever-increasing control-oriented state, saying, "It appears the people who want more control over their citizens want to limit their access to weapons."
Politicians in New York already have started discussing gun restrictions, registration and confiscation.
O'Neil has been in public service in Montana since 2001, where he served as a state senator until 2009, when he became a representative in the Montana House.
He is widely known for his ardent defense of civil liberties, limited government and constitutionalism. He has become known more recently for his request to be paid in gold and silver coins to guard himself against a potential collapse of the U.S. dollar.
The pushback from the state was just one headwind Feinstein was facing as a result of her precipitous decision to attack the Second Amendment.
Another front was on the White House website forum for citizen petitions. There, it took only hours for thousands of Americans to sign onto the request to "try Sen. Dianne Feinstein in a federal court for treason to the Constitution."
The petition explained: "The Constitution was written to restrain the government. No amendment is more important for this purpose than the 2nd Amendment. The 2nd Amendment was written so the power could be kept with the citizenry in the face of a tyrannical government. It was well understood the Constitution acknowledged certain rights that could not be limited by government."
The petition continued: "Sen. Dianne Feinstein has made it clear she does not believe in the Constitution or the inalienable rights of Americans to keep and bear arms. She is actively working to destroy the 2nd Amendment with her 2013 assault weapons ban. For this reason we the people of the United States petition for her to be tried in federal court for treason to the Constitution."
Feinstein's proposal would "ban the sale, the transfer, the transportation and the possession" of certain weapons, the California senator said on NBC's "Meet the Press."
"Not retroactively, but prospectively. And it will ban the same for big clips, drums or strips of more than 10 bullets."
It would ban scores of firearms, including military-style "assault" weapons and high-capacity ammunition feeding devices. It also calls for the creation of a federal register that would require millions of gun owners to be fingerprinted and photographed.
The following is a summary of the legislation posted on Feinstein's official senatorial website:
Bans the sale, transfer, importation, or manufacturing of:
- 120 specifically-named firearms
- Certain other semiautomatic rifles, handguns, shotguns that can accept a detachable magazine and have one military characteristic
- Semiautomatic rifles and handguns with a fixed magazine that can accept more than 10 rounds
Strengthens the 1994 Assault Weapons Ban and various state bans by:
- Moving from a 2-characteristic test to a 1-characteristic test
- Eliminating the easy-to-remove bayonet mounts and flash suppressors from the characteristics test
- Banning firearms with "thumbhole stocks" and "bullet buttons" to address attempts to "work around" prior bans
Bans large-capacity ammunition feeding devices capable of accepting more than 10 rounds.
Protects legitimate hunters and the rights of existing gun owners by:
- Grandfathering weapons legally possessed on the date of enactment
- Exempting over 900 specifically-named weapons used for hunting or sporting purposes and
- Exempting antique, manually-operated, and permanently disabled weapons
Requires that grandfathered weapons be registered under the National Firearms Act, to include:
- Background check of owner and any transferee;
- Type and serial number of the firearm;
- Positive identification, including photograph and fingerprint;
- Certification from local law enforcement of identity and that possession would not violate State or local law; and dedicated funding for ATF to implement registration
A pdf of the bill summary is available here.
The state of Montana is no stranger to fighting the feds over weaponry.
Its legislature originated the Montana Firearms Freedom Act several years ago, adopting the plan that exempts from federal oversight any gun made, sold and kept in the state.
The law subsequently was adopted by seven other states, including Wyoming, where lawmakers went a step further and specified the option of a jail term for someone illegally trying to enforce a national gun limit on a Wyoming firearm.
The federal government sued Montana, and the case is pending in the court system.
In the case, the federal government has been accused of reneging on the promises that were made when the territory became a state in 1889.
The federal government is arguing that the Commerce Clause allows federal agencies to impose any requirement they choose on those weapons.
As part of those arguments, a long list of states, individuals and organizations have filed friend-of-the-court briefs with the appellate court, and one, from the Weapons Collectors Society in Montana, points out that Montana became a state under a legal compact.
At the time, "It was the understanding of the parties that the United States Constitution would not be construed by the federal government to deny or disparage the rights reserved by the people of Montana and by the state, including the right to regulate and engage in the intrastate manufacture and sale of guns and ammunition.
"The Compact states on its face that it may not be amended without consent of both the State of Montana and the United States. … The Appellee's assertion the MFFA is preempted by federal law is an attempt to unilaterally amend that contract … and is, therefore, unenforceable."
The organization, representing hundreds of gun enthusiasts across the state, explains how strongly Montanans feel about their right to defend themselves:
It cannot be fairly disputed that firearms making and selling was occurring within the boundaries of Montana in 1889. Those manufacturing activities were not regulated by the federal government at that time. … It is difficult to envision that those who negotiated the terms of the Compact in 1889 did not understand that the State reserved the right to regulate those firearms manufacturing/selling activities within Montana at the time of the making of the Compact or had agreed the People of Montana had given up forever their ability to make and sell firearms without first obtaining the federal government's permission.
It is unlikely that the negotiators to the Compact understood the text of the U.S. Constitution to allow the federal government to regulate in any way the right to make, keep, bear, and sell arms.
Indeed, it could be argued that Montana would not have agreed to join the Union if the federal government had, at that time, suggested that it was going to enact legislation similar to the [Gun Control Act] or [National Firearms Act] and subject Montana citizens to federal criminal prosecution and civil penalties for engaging in local firearms dealing.
Earlier, the plaintiffs in the case, who have organized under the Firearms Freedom Act banner, filed their appeals brief, asking whether the judges will choose a "tyrannical" Washington or a federal government restrained by the Constitution.
Quoting Alexander Hamilton's statement that the federalism system was intended to suppress "attempts of the government to establish tyranny," the brief filed by the Montana Shooting Sports Association, the Second Amendment Foundation and MSSA President Gary Marbut of Missoula states:
The government may argue that it is not, in its current incarnation, tyrannical. The national government usually abides by the law, typically protects its citizens' rights, and always celebrates in its peaceful transfers of power. Whatever fear appellants or anyone else may have of its becoming tyrannical, the government may argue, is no more than disingenuous alarmism.
Such an argument would be wrong.
Following Montana's enactment, virtually identical versions of the MFFA were adopted in Tennessee (SB1610); Utah (SB11); Wyoming (HB95); South Dakota (SB89); Arizona (HB2307); Idaho (HB589); and Alaska (HB1860). Representing a consensus among the states on the limits of federal power, virtually identical copies of the MFFA have also been introduced in the legislatures of 23 other states, for a total of 31 jurisdictions where it has been enacted or introduced.

Climatology vs. Meteorology: Why Do So Many Weather Personalities Deny Climate Change?
OK, time to address a seriously Big Issue: Climate Change. I'll try to keep this one simple.
For some reason, meteorologists have quite a few prominent deniers in their ranks. They purport to be experts because they are involved in reporting on weather. But, weather is not climate. And for TV weather "forecasters" to make claims that humans cannot and do not impact climate is a logical fallacy; because, they are not climate scientists. Meteorologists typically have a bachelors degree. Scientists, well, they not only are bound by rigid, peer-review methodologies; but, they have years of education above and beyond that of a typical TV weather personality. And research trumps opinion.
So here's my take: Climate is to weather what the digestive system is to feces and urine. Climatologists are like medical doctors analyzing a system. Meteorologists are like commentators observing the process and predicting the arrival and general composition of an end product.
To put it crudely, when it comes to climate science, TV weather personalities barely know shit. And if it wasn't for government investment in weather and climate resources—socialized science!—TV weather personalities wouldn't be able to smile at us daily and make their predictions.
We live in a tiny bubble of life for which we can find no comparison in the known Universe. And on the scale of the Universe, our blue sphere is but an atom.
The biosphere is a relatively small part of Earth. The zone of life-giving atmosphere and land for humans is only a couple of miles thick. We undeniably have–and continue to–profoundly affect systems in the biosphere that normally span tens of thousands, even millions, of years. Whether it be the coastline of Louisiana; the expanding mats of plastic and petrochemical waste in the oceans; the prevalence of 20th century man-made chemical compounds in the tissues of humans, mammals and other species; or the ongoing and massive extinction of species at a rate 1000 times what should be normal–we ARE affecting Life on Earth.
Our short time in this realm of the living can be many things. The impact of one human's brief life and work can linger for thousands of years. We see that in the wisdom and examples of religious figures, philosophers, scientists and inventors, and those who sacrificed themselves on the altar of basic human rights. If we can have such a positive impact, it is only logical to assume that we can have a long term negative impact.
We are messy and selfish creatures; but, we have the intelligence and imagination to reach the stars, and to live compassionate and productive lives. We know that many of the things we do are harmful to our future both individually and collectively. Climate scientists have clearly shown us that we must take bold steps now to reduce the chances of catastrophic harm to ourselves. This is not about saving the planet. This is about saving us.
The next time you see or hear a media weather personality dismissing the human realities of climate change, contact that media company and express your frustration. Tell them you're tuning them out for another channel. Media companies understand that language. Vote with your voice and with the remote control.
We live in the most compassionate time in the history of the human race. We instantly communicate tragedies and elicit immediate response from an increasingly aware and generous international population. This is potentially the most transformative era in human history. But naysayers and deniers, many of whom are profiting handsomely from their contrariness, are undermining our response to this global emergency. And transformation can go either way, good or bad. We have no time to waste.
It's the ultimate "lead, follow or get out of the way" moment. What are you going to do?
NOTE: The Age of Stupid is currently airing on Planet Green. Even if you don't have cable, you can watch this powerful and compelling movie online. Do it today. If we don't take immediate action to reduce our impact both individually and collectively, the next generations face catastrophic change.

Deutsche Sees 25%+ Upside For KBR On Robust LNG Pipeline
- Order Reprints
- Print Article
Shares of energy engineering services company KBR (KBR) were rising nearly 2% in morning trading, following positive comments by Deutsche Bank.
Analyst Vishal Shah and team reiterated their Buy rating and $44 price target on KBR after meeting with management. They note that KBR gains a "significant advantage" given its ability to compete from a vertically integrated position in liquefied natural gas, and see upside potential from new wins for its ammonia business.
They see the company's LNG segment benefiting from a healthy pipeline of projects, and margins increasing from the 7% level to 9%, due to the elimination of labor cost absorption expenses.
"We expect KBR's earnings power to nearly double from ~$2.75 in 2013 to $5.50 in 2016 as LNG related revenues peak in that timeframe. Shares are trading at ~25% discount to historical 6 year average PE and ~20% discount to peers (vs. historical ~4% discount), primarily due to execution issues in our view. However, we believe execution is improving and expect shares to grind higher as the company delivers a few more quarters of solid execution."
KBR is up about 30% in the past year. Earlier this month, the company reiterated roughly in-line EPS guidance for the year.
