I posted recently on the installation process for 3.0 on a fresh install. Pretty smooth, though still a number of questions, especially around SQL Reporting Services.
However,yesterday I started trying an upgrade from 1.2 to 3.0 on a Small Business Server 2003 box. Let me tell you: NOT FUN! This has (so far) been a two day process involving several restores and reinstallations of 1.2, hours on the phone with Microsoft, running custom scripts to clean up replication errors, re-running the 3.0 upgrade, etc. etc.
Even after I got all green checks in the Upgrade Advisor, the upgrade failed. This has definitely not lived up to the hype of an easy upgrade. In addition to having to pay for a support incident with Microsoft, I have wasted two days on what was supposed to take no more than 6 hours. And I still have no working CRM system, either 1.2 or 3.0. I've seen a lot of people reporting similar headaches with the upgrade process on the newsgroup. What I want to know is: Has anyone had a clean/by-the-book upgrade process without any headaches? Please leave a comment here, and tell us about your upgrade experience, your environment, etc.
Upgrading From CRM 1.2 To 3.0

We recently did an upgrade from 1.2 to 3.0 with no problems. Upgrade took about 8 man hours, and we did have to do a little tweaking in order to get all the green lights prior to the upgrade. We even had several custom changes that were done in 1.2 that carried over to 3.0. My opinion the 3.0 product is heads and shoulders above 1.2. Anyone that had true remote sales force will appreciate the much improve sync process. Last year we rolled out 1.2 to 20 laptops (non domain laptops, don't ask how) and the process took 6 people four days working 12-15 hour days to complete. 3.0 rollout last week to 20 laptops, took 2 people a day and half working 8 hour days.

My upgrade from 1.2 to 3.0 blew up also. Our AD and Exchange servers are tied together so restoring 1.2 would have been harder than it should be.
We installed 3.0 fresh and used Scribe to import from the 1.2 SQL databases into our new server. Thankfully we were only using it a little bit so the lost data was okay.
Everyone is loving 3.0 anyway.

Did an upgrade mid-December from 1.2 to 3.0. Overall upgrade went OK (not SBS)
Some issues with new email router (totally different than 1.2 email router, advice is to read up on how it works) and security.
Had jscript on the opportunities form to perform some calculations that quit working. MS support helped out with that, there are some changes how CRM interprets JScript. My advice would be to test out Jscript first on a test box.
Some issues with 3rd party add ons, they weren't quite ready yet, but the ISV resolved that quickly.
I spent about 2-3 days total at the client. Biggest headache was upgrading all workstations to latest service packs, etc before CRM for outlook would install.
Having spent years doing Great Plains upgrades, my advice would be to redeploy to a test environment, run the upgrade process, test upgrade and customizations and then upgrade on live.
Looking forward to getting all my clients off 1.2 and on 3.0.

I seem to have some problems with comments getting posted to my blog. Here's one from Josh:
"I've had two upgrades so far and two data migrations involving 3.0. The first upgrade was a pain due to the replication not getting properly disabled during the upgrade. The second upgrade was smooth as silk and the migrations have been really smooth due the Scribe migration tool. I found that if I made sure that I met the hardware and software requirements and configurations ahead of time, it went well.
For these first four gigs, I've had the opportunity to also do a lot of work using all facets of MSCRM's existing and enhanced customization features in 3.0. To be honest, I'm very satisfied with it in comparison to 1.2. There are subtle things that I find a bit annoying such as the fact that I cannot interact with the line items of an opportunity, quote, order or invoice during workflow without cutting code.
However, the enhanced flexibility across the product and the improvements to the Outlook Client absolutely make it worthwhile to implement."

In the mist of an upgrade. Blows up at the database verify. I get the ever useful mal-formed xml query error. no file name, no inteligent source for trouble shooting, no log file, nothing. Thanks MS

3 upgrade attempts. 3 painful rollbacks. We decided to pay MBS to convert the 1.2 data to 3.0 data. Did a clean 3.0 installation with the 3.0 data and finally moved on with our lives.

I have since performed several other installs and upgrades from 1.2 to 3.0, and they have all gone much smoother than the first one I did on a Small Business Server. Part of that may be due to having learned some lessons, but I also suspect that the first upgrade I did was in an environment that was heavily "modified." My satisfaction with Microsoft CRM 3.0 continues to increase, as does that of the clients I have worked with. This is not to say that there aren't some hiccups along the way, but it's early days, and MS continues to crank out some great tools and KB articles on 3.0.

I made a mistake. My mistake was upgrading from sql 2000 to sql 2005 and then trying the upgrade to 3.0. The error I am getting when I try to install is the
at Microsoft.Crm.Setup.Server.ServerSetup.Run()
10:03:02| Info| Microsoft CRM 3.0 Server Setup Failed.
10:03:02| Info| Microsoft CRM 3.0 Server Setup Setup did not complete successfully.
Action Microsoft.Crm.Setup.Server.InstallDatabaseAction failed.
The DDL statement cannot be performed at the Subscriber or Republisher.
The DDL operation failed inside merge DDL replication manipulation.
The transaction ended in the trigger. The batch has been aborted.
error during installation. At like 45% after it checked to see that all my configurations were good. It's kind of funny because the fix is to disable replication publication and run the sql statements. The problem is replication /publication isn't in sql 2005 and therefore I cannot turn it off. I didn't however leave the compatibility to 8.0 and run the statements. Yet I am still having the same error. :( :( What should I do?

I don't have so much problem when I upgraded from ver. 1.2 to 3.0 except for this problem: When you add opportunity product in opportunity, when you click on the Products lookup (which i changed the label to Category when it was still in ver. 1.2) no available products are being displayed... The result says.. No product records are available in this view. i checked if there's available fix for this.. bu unfortunately as of now I haven't find one. If ever you have encountered the same problem and have fixed it already, hope you could extend to me the solution. thanks :)

adam, I am getting the same error: Action Microsoft.Crm.Setup.Server.InstallDatabaseAction failed
Any fixes?

Is there some way to recover the customizations done on CRM 1.2 during system down time.
- Anonymous said...
I am in the process of doing my first upgrade from 1.2 to 3.0. The goal is to redeploy 1.2 to a new environment first. The new environment will use the same Domain and AD but will have a new SQL/CRM server. What about exchange? We don't have another box for it. Do we have to have it in our test environment. If we only lose ablility for Outlook client and router, I think we are okay. Also, new SQL sever is on SQL05 box. How/When should we make that change?
- Matt Wittemann said...
Because 1.2 is not supported on SQL Server 2005 (I think - it's been a while), I would consider doing an in-place upgrade to 3.0 first, and testing all of your functionality. Then use the 3.0 redeployment tool on the CD to redeploy to your new server. When you restore your databases (moving them from your SQL 2000 environment to SQL 2005, it should go smoothly. Also, the Exchange router is not essential if you don't mind the lost functionality. You can leave it off on your new install.

All of my videos work fine on my 5th gen iPod w/video, but Wedding Crashers and Transformers didn't play (actually Transformers didn't even transfer). I have been doing them at 640x480 (or less than 480 for widescreen) with h.264, 1000 kbps video and 160kbps audio. I make the rate 1000 for video so it looks good using AppleTV and on a computer screen. Any clues?

A key and wide-ranging tech trend that's affecting enterprises and consumers alike is the Internet of Things (IoT). It's a development that's already transforming how we work and live as entrepreneurial minds continue to create use cases for billions of connected things.
Transformations of this magnitude come with growing pains. Gartner recently revealed unexpected implications arising from the IoT, pointing out that by 2020, firms will have increased annual security budgets by 20 percent (up from less than one percent in 2015) in order to address security compromises in the IoT. Even more disturbing is that Gartner expects that a black market exceeding $5 billion will exist to sell fake sensor and video data that enables criminal activity by 2020.
Everything from security cameras to smart TVs, wearables to point-of-sale systems and copy machines to the break room refrigerator are entering the corporate environment today, creating pin holes across the enterprise security landscape. It is clear that the malicious intent of hackers has not only increased, but it has become more creative. The reality is that the IoT is changing everything, especially cyber security, and without the proper tools, it's nearly impossible to know what is connecting to your network.
A Complex New Landscape
The fundamental nature of crime is changing as the IoT continues to expand. What used to be an individual hacker or two looking to make a buck or wreak havoc on a particular network has turned into a more distributed and better-organized crime fabric.
The infiltration of smart devices, while new and more efficient, may soon create more of a negative impact than a positive one. By using connected devices that are agentless, malicious actors are able to gain access to corporate networks and may not be discovered until after an attack.
Adding IoT vendors to the mix of those who deliver goods within the confines of corporate campuses only increases the complexity of the issue. CISOs now must extend their security monitoring policies and procedures to incorporate every supplier and vendor in the supply chain, no matter how benign their products might seem to network security.
This concern is not merely theoretical. A major carrier recently suffered from a breach when hackers posted 300,000 customer records online. Imagine the look on the CEO's face when he learned that the data was stolen from a third-party marketing firm involved in the carrier's supply chain. Smart CISOs and CIOs must look to implement vendor risk management processes as part of their own operational security reviews before they find themselves facing an angry board of directors who are looking for answers about how the breach occurred.
Five Fundamentals for IoT Security
Security, availability and compliance have become inseparable in an age of cloud, DevOps, BYOD and the IoT. More important, if you can't see it, you can't protect it, so before proceeding, be sure you know what is connecting to your network. Here are five recommendations to manage the corporate IoT environment.
- Map users to behaviors. To facilitate network forensics, map user identities, locations and behaviors. Look for solutions that help ingest more than just an event, but also correlate performance, log and security data. In addition, by looking at user IDs, locations and behavior patterns, you can determine if the user connecting to the network through proper login and password entries is authorized or is a malicious actor with stolen credentials.
- Analyze root causes. It's no longer good enough to simply monitor your network. Correlate across security, availability and performance for events, logs and configuration files. Today's security challenges require that network operations and security operations work together to ingest all meaningful data for analysis. Gone are the days of keeping technology domains in silos. By pulling together all available network data, it is possible to turn data collection into a weapon against hackers and create actionable information that provides a mechanism for improved root cause analysis.
- Cross-correlate and gather analytics. To improve correlation accuracy, rely on best practices and real-time network topology monitoring. Best-of-breed solutions incorporate rich analytics collection and cross-correlation along with third-party Big Data analytics tools to help network and security operations personnel apply methods that are faster and more accurate. If you can't measure it, you can't fix it.
- Use visual analytics to communicate to business stakeholders. Does upper management understand what has happened after a breach? With accountability moving down the chain of command, it's more important than ever to use the language of the business stakeholder. Communicate issues so that business people understand how IT affects the health of the business.
- Prepare proactively for compliance audits. No matter your industry, establish a compliance posture for formalized management and gain a deep understanding of how compliance failures may affect your organization, looking beyond the revenue impacts and potential for fines, plus embarrassing media exposure, to things like impact on trust with customers, supplier relationships and employee productivity. Consider solutions that report across common compliance frameworks such as PCI, ITIL, COBIT, SOX, and HIPAA.
Security for Today's Complexity
As the world becomes increasingly more connected, it will become impossible to prevent the presence of IoT devices in an organization's environment. They will come from both known and unknown sources. These devices provide the promise of many new and useful tools in the ability to perform business better and to predict unforeseen risks. Where you have identified the needs for IoT devices in your organization, ensure you fully understand the risk benefit analysis before deploying them. Methodologies such as Synthetic Transaction Monitoring can help you safely identify what the baseline behavior, or "normal" functionality, is as well as expected behaviors for how it should interact with other devices and applications in the network.
Like any vulnerable and protected resource, it's important to ensure these devices are kept behind trusted firewalls and, as with any device in your network, constantly monitor them for changes against normal. Other best-practice methods include establishing a "multi-tenant" reporting environment consolidating and isolating IoT devices into a unique and highly granulated reporting domain.
The applications of the IoT are limited only by the imagination - and, unfortunately, that goes for cybercriminals as well. Because of the IoT's inherent risk, IT organizations must find new ways to secure the network. This involves finding tools that overcome data silos and cross-correlate analytics in real time for a comprehensive window into the threat landscape. Such tools will help IT teams confront and overcome current security challenges and position them for what lies ahead.

Magistrate Can't Order Investigation By SHO Of Police Station Outside His Territorial Jurisdiction: Delhi HC [Read Judgment]
The Delhi High Court has ruled that a magistrate cannot direct the officer in-charge of a police station to investigate a cognizable offence which is outside the jurisdiction of its local area.
Justice Mukta Gupta in Nishu Wadhva Vs Sidharth Wadhva & Anr has examined various issues relating to a magistrate's powers under Section 156(3) of the Code of Criminal Procedure.
The court observed that though Section 154 CrPC does not qualify the territorial jurisdiction of the officer in-charge, who receives the information to register the same, Sections 155 and 156 CrPC qualify the territorial jurisdiction of the officer in-charge to investigate offences within the limits of such station.
"Therefore, a magistrate can direct the officer in-charge of a police station to investigate a cognizable offence which is within the jurisdiction of its local area. Thus a magistrate is required to adhere to the territorial jurisdiction and in case it is not empowered to try the said offence, it has no jurisdiction to pass order under Section 156 (3) CrPC," the court held.
Revision against order directing police investigation maintainable
Justice Gupta also addressed the issue whether revision petition against an order accepting an application under Section 156(3) CrPC is maintainable or not.
The court observed that 'to hold that since directions only have been issued under Section 156(3) CrPC and no cognizance has been taken, thus no revision would lie' would be an erroneous reading of the decisions of the Supreme Court.
"Therefore, an order dismissing or allowing an application under Section 156 (3) CrPC is not an interlocutory order and a revision petition against the same is maintainable," the court said.

Unions and watchdog groups met recently in Illinois to ask
state lawmakers to reconsider leasing the state toll way system to a private
company. Meanwhile, some supporters of the leasing concept said it would be
irresponsible to spend some of any future lease windfall on state pension debt
as proposed.
The sentiments were shared Thursday, July 20, in Grayslake, IL, during the third hearing on whether to lease the 274-mile system.
The Illinois Legislature isn't expected to seriously consider the
proposal until members gather for the regular session that begins in January
2007. However, among the many concerns that opponents have is how the potential
lease revenue will be distributed.
Despite the concerns, lawmakers in support of the plan remain
undeterred. They said they are confident that a state-funded study of the deal
will relieve anxieties that include higher tolls and lost public control, the Daily Herald reported.
Later this summer, a financial firm is expected to wrap up a
state-funded analysis of various ways to lease parts or all of the toll way
system and how much money the deal could generate.
Illinois lawmakers led by Sen. Jeff Schoenberg, D-Evanston, started to
look into the possibility of leasing the toll way shortly after Indiana netted
$3.85 billion to lease its 152-mile stretch of Interstate 90 for 75 years. The
city of Chicago brought in $1.83 billion in a similar 99-year deal for its East
Side Skyway.
Some experts project that Illinois could rake in as much as $20 billion
for the toll way system, the Daily Herald reported.

The enclosed shopping mall can trace its roots to the Palais Royal in Paris or the Oxford Covered Market in England, which both predate 1800. It was not, however, until the 19th century where the true arcade took form throughout Europe. Glass skylight allowed for the symmetrical steetscape to provide covered pedestrian passages where trade could occur, protected by the outside elements of nature.
Regarded now as the first fully enclosed shopping center [Southdale Center] with two department stores as its "anchors"—perhaps without truly understanding its eternal impact, in 1956 the modern mall was born in Edina, Minnesota, replacing open-air retail centers as the premier shopping destination in America. The era of malls in the United States lasted from the 1950's well into the 1980's, where the market became oversaturated.
Embarking on a decade into the 21st century, the construction of new malls in America is almost non-existent. The regional mall and super regional malls are now being constructed elsewhere. Asia and The United Arab Emirates are now home to the largest malls in the world. Supermarkets, Hypermarkets, IMAX theaters are just the tip of the iceberg. Aquariums, theme parks, indoor Olympic sized skating rinks and interior ski slopes have become entertainment venues in malls which at current proposal exceed over 10 million square feet. The new mall is a mall within a mall, but the premise remains the same – an indoor environment where trade can occur.

Growing up in Chicago, I've seen enough snow to last me a lifetime. After a particularly chilly day when the local weatherman warned us that spending more than 10 consecutive minutes outside would result in frostbite, I decided to move to sunnier skies.
In between Chicago and INK, I attended the University of Miami (Go 'Canes), studying broadcast journalism and sport administration. After graduating, I moved cross-country to Los Angeles, where I had stints at PR firms Hill & Knowlton and Golin, and got to work with a range of clients, from adidas to Dos Equis to Nintendo. I did a little bit of everything — crafted copy, built editorial calendars, worked with media, and whatever else needed to be done.
That willingness to take on anything has served me well at INK. I specialize in making our clients really shine through their content. This takes many different forms: maybe it's showcasing how big data can accurately predict hits in the music industry. Perhaps it's crafting a one-pager on the best way to knock down silos within a company. Or it might be shooting a video on running tips to turn even the most uninspired couch potato into a pro. I'm also one half of our podcast hosting duo — Kim and I love meeting and chatting with new people, so drop us a line!
Outside of the office, you'll likely find me doing something audio or video-related, whether it's karaoke, re-dubbing an episode of the classic Nickelodeon show Legends of the Hidden Temple (YouTube JayKayCreations1), jamming with my band (Burning Years), dropping some rhymes under my hip-hop alias (Joseph Currency), or writing a new short story or novel (Short Stories for Short Attention Spans). Hopefully that's enough self-promotion for you.

Vendor Managed Inventory
What Vendor Managed Inventory?
Vendor Managed Inventory is a means of optimizing the Supply
Chain where the manufacturer is responsible for maintaining
the distributors or suppliers levels of inventory. This is facilitated
by allowing the manufacturer access to the distributors or suppliers
inventory data, the manufacturer is then responsible for replenishing
the stock levels by raising purchase orders as required.
This differs from typical inventory management by placing the responsibility of maintaining the inventory with the consumer. This is facilitated by allowing the manufacturer access to the distributers data. Usualy in Vendor Managed Inventory scenarios the manufacturer receives sales and stock electronic data (EDI or XML over the internet) and then manages the replen plan.
The benefits of Vendor Managed Inventory
There are many benefits of VMI here are some examples:
• Closer relationship between supplier and consumer including
a level of agreed trust (eg over the data.)
• Reduced data entry errors due to Electronic exchange of information.
• Better service to the consumer as they set what they need when they need it.
• The Distributors costs will be less as the planning and ordering cost will be shifted to the Manufacturer.
• Better forecasting due to the manufacturer having better visibility
• Visibility to Stock Levels helps to identify and manage priorities
There are also some Pitfalls of Vendor Managed Inventory
• EDI and data exchange can be complicated to setup and costly
to maintain. They also require a level of trust between companies
that may not be present from the outset.
• As with any change to the business, all employees who are involved must be willing participants.
• Modifications to the normal ordering pattern must be properly communicated in a timely manner.
• In the Service Level Agreement, a process must exist to cover overstocks and obsolete inventory.

After two months and some very un-lizardy weather I finally have some lovely close ups of my favourite neighbours, snapped between Ravenscraig and UMBSM. A pregnant female Common Lizard, with a very shy friend. I'm trying to work out what she's eaten by what's sticking out of her mouth. I'm currently guessing at a butterfly, probably some form of White), although I'd happily be corrected by any entomologists out there :)
|So focused was I on the lovely lady, it took me a moment to spot the second lizard lurking behind!

The picture above is of CURE in Ethiopia.

When you partner with us monthly, we'll send you an email each month to introduce you to a different child who was helped because of your generosity. You can choose to follow their updates and send them get well messages. That means that each year, you're a part of helping 12 different children, beginning with Shebo. We call it being a CURE Hero!

"I want the bullying to stop," says Shebo.
Shebo is a friendly young boy when you get to know him! He was born with a clubfoot and he has been to different medical centers seeking help for his foot, but has not been able to get the treatment he needs. His father, Umer, heard about CURE at another hospital and they came to our mobile clinic to consult with our doctors. Shebo lives in the the eastern part of Ethiopia with both of his parents and his siblings, he has three sisters and two brothers. He is a fourth grader who loves school and soccer very much. "I want to be a doctor someday so that I could heal people," Shebo tell us. Please join us in praying for Shebo's healing so he can go on to pursuing his dreams of healing others!

I have no desire to see it
Batman Begins. Fantastic Four. Two more comic book movies. Yeah.
I have no desire to see any of them. They're being heavily hyped. But I'll tell you what will happen.
The bad guys will shoot lots of rounds. They'll either miss or their bullets will have no effect. They'll be big explosions. There will be a hot chick. There will be a love story.
One of the good guys can do back flips. For the record, if you do back flips, all bullets will miss you. In fact, all projectiles will miss you. Lasers. Broken glass. Automated razor blades. Back flips have a way of making everything miss.
A lesser good guy will die. Don't worry, the main good guy will throw a bone to the lesser good guy's family and they'll do their part and go away for the rest of the movie.
The main good guy starts out as some rich kid, but something bad happens to him, so he decides to dedicate his life to fighting crime instead of hanging out with rich celebrities and going on cruises.
The good guy(s) will have a cool set of wheels. Or a plane. Or a boat, or some cool means of transportation. Or maybe all of the above.
The good guy will get seriously hurt. No problem though. He'll just take a shower and get all his hit points back. It's like those old video games where you eat a piece of chicken and get all your health back.
If you're going to see them, have a great time. I won't be there. You'll have to let me know though if I'm right or not.

Tuesday's Tip
I have spent most of my life being the one a little off bubble. A little eccentric. OK, I'll say it, a little weird. Now, it seems, if I am to believe everything I am hearing on the news and reading in my newspaper and on all the blogs, I am right on target and part of the "in" crowd.
Happy Earth Day, everyone.
Today's tip is: celebrate Earth Day everyday!
God gave us this awesome planet. It is nothing short of uh - mazing! And we all take it for granted each and every day. I don't want to sound like every (other ; ) ) celebrity out there, but we have got to take better care of our home. And part of the way we can do that is taking better care of ourselves.
If we support the farmers who grow organically, we are putting less poison in the earth and in our bodies.
If we clean our homes with less toxic chemicals, we are putting less poison in the earth and breathing easier in our homes.
If we eat foods in their original packages, we don't generate as much waste and we don't generate as much waist. : )
So my little patch of carrots in my apartment complex flower bed doesn't seem so crazy now, does it? My house smelling of vinegar on cleaning day doesn't set me up as a nut case and a little over the top, hmm? And eating my apple and cheese at lunch instead of something out of the vending machine doesn't make me some kind of a health nut. OK, maybe it does, but I was also saving the plant with my lunch!
Go forth and be weird! It's cool now!

My Super Julie,
Do you know where the Da was on the first Earth Day, I was in San Franscio as chairman of the National Pollution Control Conference had a letter from the then president Nixon on our effort for having the meeting on the first Earth Day. Also had a letter from a future president Ronald Ragen, then governor of California. Our conference included all area of pollution, even noise and nuclear areas. Had a major demostration by some folks that tried to break into the meeting. We set up a meeting for Ted Doan, president of Dow that made agent Orange. He really controled the meeting and was so impressed with his ability. Was an exciting time to be part of it all, especially being the first to do a major discussion on Earth Day.
Love You,
The Da

That feeling when you have dug a hole for yourself but instead of stopping you continue digging. Labour Party disciplinary (non) process: Australia, here we come!
New attempt to get out of the mess they created is to demand members who were unjustly suspended to sign the social media pledge before being unsuspended – even though the original accusation is not being upheld.
Most members will have heard about the appalling abusive (non) process adopted by the NEC against members. We have laughed and cried at the irony of them accusing members of abuse, providing no evidence after months of demanding evidence, suspending people leaving them hanging unable to participate in meetings, ostracised by the Party with the accusation hanging over their heads. Yes the Labour Party abusing its own members with complete disregard for due process and natural justice – not to mention sheer common decency.
After many months people were having their suspensions lifted (and this still continues) having had no right of input, no participatory investigation, and still no evidence BUT unbelievable a paragraph in the letter unsuspending them saying the accusation will be left on file – a WARNING letter! So there we have the Party disciplinary system assuming GUILT and crazily offering no right of appeal. NO no and no. These Warning letters issued under these circumstances are not being accepted. It is mind boggling to know that Iain McNicol and the NEC actually thought that it was OK to assume guilt in this way.
Now we have a new development. Initially they dug a hole for themselves by suspending people when that option was never used other than for real threats of physical violence or profound damage to the Party. It was an option that was given in trust to be used with a responsible attitude. Iain McNicol and the NEC failed and continue to fail in both – they have broken trust and failed in responsibility. They suspended THOUSANDS of members at the drop of a hat. One crazy example resulting from trawling social media with auto search apps was suspending someone for using the word `RAT` which they decided without it going through proper process was and is now a proscribed word lol BUT what is even crazier is that a member made a tweet using the word `democrat` and got suspended for it. Now even if you consider the disciplinary dept has the right to discipline someone for using the word `rat`, to use the option to SUSPEND pending an investigation is appalling. And then it gets worse, they don`t actually bother with a participatory investigation.
So they sent out Warning letters based on assumed guilt, and members said No we are not accepting the Warning letter – take it off or, having suspended me, give me the right to defend myself against the accusation.
It now seems they have stopped sending out Warning letters in such circumstances (wonder whether they actually saw how unjust that is huh?) and are trying the tac of sending out letters saying the person is unsuspended BUT before that can be fully processed they have to sign and return a letter stating that they agree to respect the new social media pledge thus:
I am pleased to inform you that your administrative suspension from the Labour Party will be lifted and that you will be free to resume active membership conditional upon receipt of a signed copy of the Members Pledge (attached).
I would like to draw your attention specifically to Chapter 2 of the Labour Party Rule Book which states:
"No member of the Party shall engage in conduct which in the opinion of the NEC is prejudicial, or in any way in the opinion of the NEC is grossly detrimental to the Party".
We look forward to receiving a signed copy of the Members Pledge attached to your email (please send either by post to the London address above or a scanned copy by return email). We hope that this matter is now behind you and we welcome you back to full membership of the Party.
Yours sincerely,
Iain McNicol
General Secretary of the Labour Party Labour Party
Member's Pledge
I pledge to act within the spirit and rules of the Labour Party in my conduct both on and offline, with members and non-members and I stand against all forms of abuse. I understand that if found to be in breach of the Labour Party policy on online and offline abuse, I will be subject to the rules and procedures of the Labour Party
Firstly this pledge has never been discussed and adopted and agreed by conference BUT even more chilling is that they are sending this out to members who were suspended and demanding they sign it even though they have not had a proper investigation – so again assumed guilt. NO, not acceptable. Our advice to anyone being blackmailed in this manner is to write back and say that you do not understand why you are specifically being asked to sign this pledge. Firstly the suspension is lifted and so there is no case to answer so why the pledge. Secondly, my membership is continuous and unless you tell me that all current members are being send the same pledge to be signed in order for their membership to be continued then I shall not be signing it.

Sewer & Water Menu
Current Rates (Effective 07/01/18)
Revenues to operate the Davenport County Sanitation District are collected yearly from residents, businesses and schools that are connected to the sanitary sewer system through property taxes and manual bills. Sewer service rates are established through hearings held with the Santa Cruz County Board of Supervisors.
Using information supplied by District staff, the rates are reviewed each year by an independent engineering firm which specializes in revenue studies for utility districts and are subject to final approval by the Board. Before the rates are set, a notice of public hearing is mailed to all owners of property within the Sanitation District boundaries, another notice is published in the Santa Cruz Sentinel, and the public hearing is held. The public hearing is normally scheduled in April or May of each year, with the rates becoming effective on the first of July. Customers are encouraged to participate in the public hearings and can send written comments to the attention of the District Engineer.
Please select a topic from the dropdown menu below for more information about residential rates, commercial rates, and how these rates are affected by wastewater strengths.
Residential Rates: Residential customers are charged a flat rate for sewer and a flat rate for water per dwelling uni
Commercial Rates: Charges for commercial customers are based on the volume and pollutant strength of the wastewater being treated. Our rate structure is a two‐part rate which includes a flat annual charge per business space or suite, whether vacant or occupied, plus a composite volume rate which is based on each tenant's user category and the total annual water use
The volume of wastewater is determined from records of water usage as metered by the Davenport Water Facility. Due to the lead time involved in getting the yearly sewer charges placed on the County property tax statements, the current fiscal year's charges are based on water use and strength factors from the previous calendar year.
Water use for the purpose of calculating the service charge is measured from January through December of the previous year (for example: for tax year 2016/17 the water use will be from January through December 2015). The sewer service charge for this period is placed on the property tax bill.
The following is an example of a typical 2016/17 restaurant service charge calculation if we assume that that restaurant used 560 HCF (hundred cubic feet) of water in the calendar year 2015:
Sewer: (560 HCF x $18.71) + $766.86 = $11,244.46
Water: (560 HCF x $9.63) + $415.70 = $5,808.50
Commercial Renting and Leasing: Due to the lag in billing, commercial customers who rent or lease their property should carefully consider how sewer service charges are addressed in the lease or rental agreement. Changes in tenants with different demands for water or that have different wastewater strength will affect the yearly service charge. A landlord may not become aware of potential changes in service charges until well after tenant changes have occurred. All sewer service charges are billed to the property owner. Property owners are responsible for paying the charges whether or not they are able to collect from their tenants.

Today was nice.
I think all the time. Especially when I am home
-here home, not NY home.
Live for now.
Too many thoughts come and go to try and get them all down. I'll leave ya with these next two quotes and then an lj-cut to specifics of my day.
Don´t take life too seriously, you´ll never get out of it alive
From "Van Wilder", brought to my attention by a friend.
the only boundary is your mind
in another e-mail.
Saw my friend Sarah. We attempted to go to the zoo, but did not know the light rail stop. Instead we just had lunch and saw part of a street show at the inner Harbor in Baltimore.
For future reference - there actually are 2, repeat, 2 trains on the light rail, not 1. Or to clarify better, 2 different routes.
I am so glad her family has moved back to DC, otherwise I wuold see her less often then I already do.
I then rushed home to eat dinner with my family and cousins and uncles and aunts. It was short and I wish I could've had more in depth conversations, but it was nice to at least see them all.
I then headed out to see arkos where we were joined by schwack and dejhia. It was nice to see them again.
nolf was held up by some important stuff, so we made re-plans for tomorrow. I shall cross my fingers until then. We seem to just miss each other always, LOL.
I then left there and stopped by my friend Sara and Rob's place for a short time. They moved into a new house with his family. They have the basement. It is incredibly nice. It was nice to see them too.
I am now home and ready to sleep once I put my laundry in the dryer.
I have had a wonderful weekend, though a bit distressing trying to see all the friends I would normally see in the course of a month into 1 weekend, I saw about 1/2 of them.
I realized I sometimes miss driving. It is my thinking time, which, manoloray and magpiegeese expect a discussion about your baseball analogy to arise soon. I have a semi "argument" only in the sense of argument how it is used in court. That was a joke. I do have some thoughts though.
I am almost ready to go back to NY.
1 more day, which I shall enjoy.
I hope everyone is well.

Nuggets have a tough road ahead of them
(Sports Network) – The Denver Nuggets (35-34) are No. 7 in the Western
Conference playoff race and sit in second place in the Northwest Division.
They are 10 1/2 games behind the division-leading Utah Jazz in the Northwest
and are just 1 1/2 games ahead of the eighth-seeded Los Angeles Clippers.
Even with All-Stars Carmelo Anthony and Allen Iverson leading the way, if
the Nuggets hang on and qualify for the playoffs, they are most likely headed
for a first-round matchup with the Phoenix Suns, San Antonio Spurs or Dallas
Denver is scheduled to play eight of its final 13 games on the road. The
Nuggets will visit Phoenix, Seattle, the Lakers, Clippers, Utah, New
Orleans/Oklahoma City, Memphis and San Antonio.
The Nuggets will host the SuperSonics, Sacramento, Dallas, Lakers and the
Timberwolves in their final home games.
Denver tries to bounce back from a tough loss, as it welcomes the SuperSonics
on Wednesday to the Pepsi Center. It is the third of four meetings between the
squads this season. Denver won the two previous contests and has won four of
the last five meetings in the series.
Seattle has lost two straight and four of the last six contests at Denver.
The SuperSonics will host the Nuggets on Sunday at KeyArena.
Denver returns home after going 2-3 on a five-game road trip. On Monday,
Rasheed Wallace hit a shot from three-quarters the length of the court to
force overtime, and made a few crucial shots in the extra session to lead the
Detroit Pistons to a 113-109 win over the Nuggets at The Palace of Auburn
Marcus Camby scored 24 points and pulled down 13 boards in the loss for the
Nuggets, who have dropped three of their last four games overall. Nene
finished with 21 points and 17 boards, while J.R. Smith netted 21 in defeat.
Neither Iverson or Anthony played well for Denver against the Pistons. Iverson
finished with 16 points, while Anthony was 6-of-19 from the floor for just 13
The Nuggets are 19-17 at home this season. After tonight's contest, they will
embark on a tough three-game road trip. Denver is scheduled to visit Phoenix,
Seattle and the Lakers on the upcoming swing.

Armide is an opera by Christoph Willibald Gluck, with libretto by Philippe Quinault. As favourite among other works of gluck, Armide came in the Parisian stage for its first time on 23 September 1777 by the Academie Royale de Musique in the second Salle du Palais Royal in Paris. All works from Gluck have been popullar in the end of 19ties also at the Vienna Hofoper today Staatsoper. Gluck is an artist of the 17th and 18th century, but, his works continue to impress the publicum nowadays too. Therefore Vienna state Opera put his works in the programme of this saisson together with another Gluck oper - Alceste.
Armide is an heroique Drama with the sorceress Armide in the main role, which in love with Renaud will be highly emotionally consumed. Gluck puts in stage face to face thoe love of a woman and its anger. We invite all opera lovers to enjoy this opera, following the renowned artists of Vienna Philharmonics.

The Secretariat of the Convention on Biological Diversity was established (Article 24) to support the goals of the Convention. Its principal functions are to prepare for, and service, meetings of the Conferences of the Parties (COP) and other subsidiary bodies of the Convention, and to coordinate with other relevant international bodies. The Secretariat is institutionally linked to the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), its host institution and, pursuant to decision II/19, is located in Montreal, Canada since 1996. The Secretariat plays a significant role in supporting the implementation of the Convention. In spite of the considerable advancements achieved by the Convention since its entry into force, the extent of the biodiversity challenge facing the international community requires urgent additional efforts as well as enhanced international cooperation and inter-agency collaboration on the scale necessary to translate the three objectives of the Convention into reality if the 2010 biodiversity target is to be achieved.
At its tenth meeting, the COP adopted, in decision X/2, the Strategic Plan for Biodiversity 2011-2020 with 20 global targets known as the Aichi Biodiversity Targets, to guide national and international efforts to conserve biodiversity. While all the Targets have potential linkages to health and well-being, Target 14 focuses explicitly on ecosystem services that contribute to health, livelihoods and well-being. Actions that support implementation of the Aichi Biodiversity Targets provide opportunities to improve both global human health and ecosystem health.
As such the SCBD highlights and supports the critical health-supporting ecosystem services and benefits of biodiversity and stresses the need to link health and biodiversity sectors.

A child custody lawyer has the mission to evaluate the legal status of each right, to have coverage in the elements of the family members and the orientation against the nonsensical prosecution where the compromise is conceivable. Family law, for the most part, covers the problems on which the claim is based, from the property's game plans to the basis of who made the marriage separate. Extraordinarily covers the care and support of the child; in all its extension it guarantees the rights of the young person and his appropriation, also, legitimation or guarantee of paternity. Among the conjugal clashes, it is characterized that the aid should have been maintained, the rights to be observed, the commitments to be met and the grace to expand. As for the property problems that may arise from other marital or family conflicts, it covers in general terms the division of benefits and liabilities, insurance and the delivery of honesty too good to the successors or legatees and legitimate devices. The Law Office of David A. Martin & Associates is a Sacramento family law firm that knows the ins and outs of child custody law.

Note: Due to the increasing share and importance of natural gas in the United States' energy portfolio, IPAA's Declaration of Independents initiative will also focus on the impact of natural gas (in addition to our previous oil coverage) on global trade, economy, and job creation in the U.S. and beyond. Also stay tuned for more shale play profiles.
In our previous article, we focused on how the rising trend for domestic production, especially for oil, was benefiting the U.S. economy with increased jobs, and at the same time improving the country's trade balance, its geopolitical standing, and its economic impact on world energy markets. Our focus now shifts to the parallel stimulus from the dramatic revival of American natural gas production.
As noted in the prior article, U.S. natural gas production reached an all-time high in 2011, and then surpassed that in 2012 at 25.3 trillion cubic feet, its seventh annual increase in a row. Marketed production for January-October 2013 (latest available) is maintaining, if not exceeding 2012's level. In addition to dry natural gas produced from natural gas wells, these production figures include natural gas produced as a by-product from oil wells, known as "associated gas." It also reflects the production from "wet" natural gas wells, the economics of which are strongly influenced by the potential value of extracted natural gas liquids (NGLs) in addition to the natural gas itself.
Natural gas is the country's second largest energy source after petroleum, making up 27.4 percent of total energy consumed. The share of that natural gas coming from domestic supplies is now at 94 percent, the highest in 25 years.
Natural Gas in America
The shale technology revolution has made all-time record amounts of natural gas available to the domestic market. This abundance has provided benefits in electric power, the fastest growing demand sector, as well as industrial and transportation markets.
Natural gas has given electric utilities more fuel choices for power generation, resulting in a shift away from coal. In 2005, natural gas provided just 15 percent of the energy inputs for electric power generation in the U.S. while coal provided 52 percent. By 2012, natural gas' share had surged to 24 percent, while coal's had dropped to 41 percent. In 2012, natural gas was the top electric power energy input after coal; nuclear power supplied 21 percent, hydropower, seven percent, wind, four percent, and biomass, one percent. So far in 2013, natural gas usage for power generation, though it has moderated from 2012 levels, remains more than seven percent above the same January-September period for recent years.
The availability and affordability of American natural gas gave a boost to the industrial sector with initial signs of a more widespread resurgence. According to a recent Energy Information Administration (EIA) survey, "The 36 percent decrease in the average natural gas price paid by manufacturers between 2006 and 2010, from $7.59 to $4.83 per million Btu, was large enough that the total cost of energy from all sources fell by 11 percent …. Since that survey was conducted, natural gas prices have fallen further." The International Energy Agency, in its most recent World Energy Outlook, adds, "Lower gas and electricity prices in 2012 in the United States relative to Europe equated to estimated savings of close to $130 billion for the entire US manufacturing industry." For industries such as steel, where energy can account for up to 40 percent of the manufacturing cost, this is a significant development.
Further, the lower cost of natural gas and natural gas liquids as feedstock has influenced decisions to expand domestic capacity in the chemical and fertilizer industries. Natural gas liquids are a major input for manufacturing plastics and many other synthetic materials, and in fertilizer manufacture, natural gas feedstock can be the largest single cost component by far. According to fertilizer manufacturer CF Industries, "We realize a significant and sustainable advantage as a consumer of North American natural gas. The decline in natural gas costs attributed to the rapid growth in shale production has led to the advantaged cost position of North American nitrogen manufacturers and has sparked a renaissance in North American industrial activity."
Also, interest in natural gas as a transportation fuel has been growing. Many municipal bus systems have adopted natural gas fleets, with one-fifth of all transit buses running on natural gas, according to the American Public Transit Association. Some long-distance trucking companies have added natural-gas powered trucks, and even some exploration companies have included natural-gas powered vehicles in their operations. Railroads are interested in natural gas as a potentially economical fuel, while heavy equipment manufacturers are also exploring similar options. Refueling is one of the challenges, but there are already more than 1,000 refueling stations across the U.S. (including fleet-only) according to Natural Gas Vehicles for America, with numerous plans to expand refueling capacity further in various places around the country.
The increase in American natural gas production, as with increased oil production, has helped to reduce net import reliance for the U.S. Import reliance for natural gas has historically been lower than for oil, and with recent trends, that reliance has fallen further — from 16 percent of domestic consumption in 2005 to six percent in 2012, the latest annual data available.
The reduction in net imports for natural gas has played out differently than for oil because of the significant logistical differences between the two. Oil's liquid form allows it to be easily shipped around the world, and the U.S., as the world's largest refiner, has expanded its product exports dramatically in response to strong growth in world demand (in contrast with stable domestic demand).
For natural gas, only neighboring Canada and Mexico can be reached by pipeline. Any exports to farther destinations require tanker shipments of liquefied natural gas (LNG), which can involve multi-year lead-times to seek approvals, major investments in liquefaction and export facilities, and time to line up customers – all processes that are taking place even as this is written.
Nevertheless, the most immediate effects of the U.S. natural gas supply resurgence have been on trade with the country's North American neighbors, particularly reduced imports of natural gas from Canada, and even increased exports to that country. From 2005 to 2012, imports from Canada to the U.S. fell from 3.7 trillion cubic feet to under 3.0 trillion cubic feet. At the same time, U.S. natural gas exports to Canada rose from 0.4 trillion cubic feet to 1.0 trillion cubic feet. The result was a 40 percent drop in net imports of natural gas from Canada, with an additional 12 percent, year-to-year decline through third quarter 2013. On a smaller scale, exports to Mexico have simultaneously increased from 0.3 trillion cubic feet in 2005 to 0.6 trillion cubic feet in 2012, continuing to rise in 2013 as (the reverse of the U.S. situation) consumption in that country has risen faster than internal supply. According to the EIA, Mexico relies on U.S. supplies for about 30 percent of its natural gas needs. With the recent constitutional reforms there, Mexico could enhance its own domestic production if opportunities open for participation with U.S. producers and their expertise in shale and deepwater plays. Meanwhile, natural gas from more distant areas, shipped as LNG, had accounted for nearly 17 percent of U.S. imports in 2007, but diminished to less than six percent of that shrinking total in 2012, and less than that through the third quarter of 2013.
For natural gas, import prices have fallen by more than 60 percent from 2005 to 2012 and net import volumes by nearly as much, reflecting the increasing volumes available to the North American market due to the turnaround in domestic natural gas production. As a result the net trade balance on natural gas shrank from $32 billion in 2005 to under $4 billion in 2012, and is on track to remain near that level in 2013. Less obvious, but significant, is the competitive advantage U.S. manufacturers have gained with the availability of natural gas as an economical fuel and feedstock compared with many other parts of the world, where natural gas has often been less available and much more costly. According to a recent International Energy Agency report, "Although gas price differentials have come down from the extraordinary levels seen in mid-2012, natural gas in the U.S. still trades at one-third of the import prices to Europe and one-fifth of those to Japan."
Export Potential
Increased domestic natural gas production has translated into greater availability of extracted natural gas liquids (NGLs), leading to both record domestic usage and record exports. The volume of NGLs supplied to the domestic market reached an all-time high of 2.30 million barrels/day in 2012, and was running about five percent ahead of a year ago through November 2013. Exports of NGLs (including liquefied petroleum gases, or LPGs, as well as heavier NGL components) jumped from 60,000 barrels per day in 2005 to over 300,000 barrels per day in 2012 and averaged over 450,000 barrels/day for January-October 2013. Over three-quarters of these exports are going to Western Hemisphere destinations, from Canada to Chile. Historically, these exports have consisted of propane and heavier components, but some companies are considering the possibility of exporting ethane, as well, which would require special tankers to ship it in liquefied form.
With the abundant natural gas supplies in the U.S., combined with growth of potential markets overseas, interest has grown in exports to more distant destinations beyond Canada and Mexico. Such exports necessarily involve building facilities, including those to transform the natural gas to liquid form and to accommodate tanker loadings. Also needed is federal approval to export to non-Free Trade Agreement nations, not to mention the need to line up long-term customers. Thus, LNG exports involve lead-times measured in years with substantial up-front investments measured in billions of dollars. The U.S. currently continues to import diminishing volumes of LNG, and U.S. exports of LNG are even smaller, amounting to just 0.1 percent of domestic production in 2012. More than half of these were re-exports of LNG imported from elsewhere. At this point, the Department of Energy has approved LNG export licenses to four facilities, with another 20 or so applications at the agency awaiting consideration. Even with current and any future government approvals, there is no guarantee that all projects will be built or be economic, but the export potential is worth monitoring given the incredible supply unlocked by producers.
Natural Gas Boosting U.S. Economy
The strength of U.S. natural gas production, just as with the rise in domestic oil production, has enhanced U.S. economic well-being. Ample supplies of American natural gas have led to the creation of American jobs both directly and throughout the value chain. Increased availability of natural gas has spurred economic development and investment in American manufacturing by offering greater flexibility in energy inputs and feedstock, while also providing more economical and emissions-friendly energy inputs for electricity generation. All of these are helping to put the U.S. on a stronger footing in the international economic arena, while reducing U.S. net energy imports and improving the U.S. trade balance. As with oil developments, the reduced reliance on energy imports is a step towards greater national security and stronger economic competitiveness.
