|Stopping at the Hoover Dam for a quick photo.
|Coffee stop in Dolan Springs.
|The canyon - one of those things that just can't really be photographed properly.
|There's no safety barrier. And nothing to stop you falling off the edge so be careful with that selfie stick!
|Yeah, it's busy. We climbed up this and the view was amazing.
|It was thiiiiiiis big, ma!
|The Skywalk - probably the shortest walk you'll do for $35 and you can't take your camera or phone with you because they also want to sell you a photo but we couldn't go all that way and not do it!
On getting back to Vegas we took a more man-made approach to big heights with a ride on the Linq High Roller. This is a new-ish attraction and as well as being super fun it offers great views of the strip and beyond.
|Ceaser's Palace and the Rio.
|Paris Las Vegas and the Bellagio fountain show.
Still not bored of heights? The Stratosphere hotel and casino has a tower that can be ascended for $20 - compared to London prices everything in Vegas is pretty reasonable but there's so much going on that it really has to me. Located at the north end of the strip the Stratosphere has quite an 80s feel and has some fairground rides at the top as well as $4 margaritas and pretty awesome views.
|What a view!

Winning Factors
- When hotel soft-opened in 2011, guests would take six to ten minutes to check-in at the counter. Now, the check-in and check-out process take under a minute
- Smoother and faster check-in and check-out process without waiting for printed documents
- Allows staff to spend more time with Guests to understand their needs and interact with them
- Reduces the business operation costs.
QikDesk© Solution
The paperless check-in and check-out green technology marks a new paradigm shift for hotel guest services and business operations. Guests arriving for check-in at the reception counter are able to view the registration card and sign on the QikDesk© terminal on the front desk. Similarly, during the check-out process, guests get to view their folios on the QikDesk© upon check-out and also request for the folios to be emailed to them instead of the printed copies.
This in itself has tremendous impact on paper usage within the hotel. The complete check-in and check-out process becomes much smoother and faster as guests no longer need to wait to print documents. While waiting for registration or check-out to be processed, guests get to view hotel promotions on QikDesk©, thereby, allowing hotel to upsell services and increase revenues.
The QikDesk© system offers our guests a quick and efficient check-in and check-out experience under a minute.
− Mr. Philip Cyril Raj, General Manager
Bay Hotel Singapore, a 333-room, non-smoking property located at the gateway of Sentosa, opened its doors in 2011. Since its opening, Bay hotel has been facing the challenges posed by severe competition from the growth of hotels in Singapore, the lack of qualified manpower, and the ability to compete for the Guest and retain them for future business.
This has led the hotel to be on a constant search for ways to improve on the delivery of Guest experience, to raise staff productivity and to reduce hotel operations costs. Their search led them to UbiQ Global Solutions' QikDesk© paperless iPad Check-in and Check-out solution!
What were the selection criteria of this new paperless system?
"The QikDesk© System meets the hotel business operation's needs," said Mr. Philip Cyril Raj, General Manager, Bay Hotel Singapore. "It empowers the hotel with the ability to go paperless provides higher efficiency, allowing more time for guest interaction and saving costs on paper and eventually reduces manpower."
How has the hotel benefitted from the implementation?
"The Front Desk is one of the major sources of paper usage," said Mr. Philip Raj. "The implementation of the QikDesk© system not only offers our guests a quick and efficient check-in and check-out experience under a minute, it also eliminates the use of paper in the process leading to significant cost savings in the hotel operations."
"QikDesk© is an addition to the earlier QikPad© system introduced by UbiQ, which now allows for hotels to go totally green in the front desk," said Mr. Harbans Singh, Managing Director, UbiQ Global Solutions. "It also enables Bay Hotel Singapore to provide a much better Guest experience, reducing reliance on excessive labour and also building Guest loyalty."
"With the implementation of QikDesk© System, Bay Hotel Singapore has moved up a step in achieving its goal in providing a total unique experience for their Guests," added Mr. Philip Raj. "This is also in support of our corporate green initiatives and we see more guests delighted with the idea and they want to participate in contributing the environment."

National Park Service Press Release
City of Hamtramck [PRESS RELEASE]
3401 Evaline Street
Hamtramck, MI 48212
Release Date: January 12, 2017
Contacts: Melanie A. Markowicz, City Planner, firstname.lastname@example.com, 313.265.9266
City of Hamtramck Awarded National Park Service African American Civil Rights Program Grant for Hamtramck Stadium
Hamtramck, Michigan (January 12, 2017) ? The City of Hamtramck is pleased to announce that they have been awarded the National Park Service (NPS) African American Civil Rights Program Grant for Hamtramck Stadium. The fully funded grant of $50,000 will go directly toward pre-development work for the complete rehabilitation of the historic resource and will include a detailed conditions assessment, construction estimate, architectural plans and specifications. The Stadium is a significant heritage site associated with segregated sporting and African American Civil Rights in the twentieth century. It is one of very few remaining Negro League era baseball stadiums in the country. Hamtramck Stadium was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on July 31, 2012 and a Michigan Historic Marker was installed in 2014.
Melanie Markowicz, City Planner for Hamtramck, spearheaded the grant application which included an update to the National Register of Historic Places listing, highlighting Hamtramck Stadiums Civil Rights history. It is my hope that those who visit this site will make a personal connection to the past and the struggle for Equal Rights.
The long-term end goal of the rehabilitation is to re-open the Stadium as a multi-purpose facility for public use and enjoyment. These uses will include a full range of sporting and community events including recreational and youth league organized sporting, pickup games, concerts, events, movie screenings, and interpretive exhibition ballgames which explore the heritage of the site.
The City owns Hamtramck Stadium and has been coordinating with community stakeholders and groups. The Friends of Historic Hamtramck Stadium (FHHS) is a non-profit that has focused on the identification, preservation, and future rehabilitation of the site, and the City has been working closely with them to garner support for the project. The City of Hamtramck is proud to bring new life to Hamtramck Stadium in the spirit of shared collaboration and partnership, said City of Hamtramck Mayor Karen Majewski.
The NPS Civil Rights Grant Program is a newly funded program through the Historic Preservation Fund (HPF). The Hamtramck Stadium project is one of 39 projects funded nationwide, and one of two funded in Michigan. Pre-development work is projected to begin this spring. More information about the NPS Program is available here: https://www.nps.gov/orgs/1207/01-12-2017-civil-rights-grants.htm.

This is an amazing story, and completely relevant to our cause. Please take a moment to read the full article– you won't regret it!
As everyone memorialized and remembered the story of the Boston Marathon bombing, I was reminded again today of a story that is pregnant with hope. And redemption. And love. It is the story of the first woman to run in the Boston Marathon: Kathrine Switzer If you haven't heard the story (or even if you have), please take a couple minutes to watch this her tell the story in her own words:
For those of you who can't watch the video right now, the short version is this: Kathrine Switzer entered the 1967 Boston Marathon, a race that had been open only to men for 70 years, by using her initials. She ran with her coach and her boyfriend, and soon word spread that a woman was running in the race. A race official named Jock Semple (no kidding, his name was "Jock") ran up to her and grabbed her, saying,

A dolphin swims with a new artificial tail fin
June 4, 2014 Ryukyu Shimpo
Bottlenose dolphin "Fuji" ,from the Ocean Expo Park in Motobu Town, has a new artificial tail fin. The dolphin swam with the new fin after a final fitting test was carried out on May 31.
The designers improved a "cowling" feature, which stabilizes the rubber-made artificial fin onto the dolphin's tail fin.
The new fin does not have screws that need tightening, so it is more comfortable for the dolphin and more durable.
Fuji swam around in the pool with her daughter Connie, as if showing off her new comfortable fin to developers.
The dolphin joined the Ocean Expo Park since 1978. In 2002, part of her tail fin had to be cut off because of an unknown disease. Later, the Churaumi Aquarium and auto manufacturer Bridgestone Group worked together to develop an artificial tail fin. Bridgestone has so far developed 38 fins of eight different kinds.
Shingo Kato of the Bridgestone Flowtech said, "We can now use the outcome of long-term design research for Fuji for other dolphins." A member of the breeding staff, Suguru Higa said, "Visitors can enjoy seeing the aged dolphin swimming energetically with the artificial fin."

Improve Your Proportions with Breast Augmentation
Would you like to replace the breast volume you have lost over the years, or improve that which has always been lacking? Your body, especially your breasts, changes throughout your life. Pregnancies or weight loss may lead to a deflated, fallen bust. A simultaneous size increase in the lower torso leads to a disproportionate figure.
Breast enlargement, either with implants or with fat grafting, may elevate and correct the volume deficit. Implants, either saline or the modern silicone gel, will reliably increase upper breast volume and provide a modest elevation of the nipple position. There is a broad selection of implant sizes and shapes for your consideration. The staff at Genesis will assist you to make sure that your selection fits your chest wall and breast envelope dimensions.
A typical breast augmentation with implants takes about one to one and a half hours under a general anesthetic. Your total time at the surgical facility is about three hours to allow for a pre-op interview by anesthesia personnel and post-op recovery before going home. A long acting local anesthetic is placed during the surgery so you wake up without significant pain, although you may feel tightness.
An alternative to implants for a natural breast enhancement is fat grafting. This type of augmentation can provide a modest increase in breast size. If a more dramatic increase in breast size is desired then implants are the best option. Fat grafting has the added benefit of removing the fat from an area of excess, so that one area is enlarged and the other is reduced.
For more information on fat grafting breast enhancement or breast augmentation with breast implants at our Kansas City area surgery facility, please contact Genesis Plastic Surgery today to schedule a complimentary breast enhancement consultation!

Snowed in..........
Mostly down.
Our road is very steep, and a few areas never get direct sunlight during the winter months, so a combination of ice and snow can quickly make it into ski run.
However, we have important shopping to do, including our Christmas food shop, so we really need to get out if at all possible.
We may be gone for some time.........

I've seen the weather on the telly and your area is pretty bad! :o( We only had a thin layer of snow on Friday in my part of Hampshire, and although most had gone by yesterday, we now have black ice and that's just as bad as you are experiencing!
I do hope that you manage to get out! Everything crossed! :o)

What a great place to celebrate NYE! Let's take a look at some of the festivities…
Happy New Year
What an amazing night!
New Year is a special time at Woodford that sees a community of strangers join as one in the celebration of memories past and experiences to come. We started the evening by saying goodnight to the last day of 2015 at the Sunset Ceremony, before kicking on at the Amphi with a jam packed night of big sets at the Hogmanay.
As the last minutes of 2015 came to an end the bell tolled and Woodford was overcome by silence and the warm glow of thousands of hand held candles. Our annual 3 minutes silence is a time of reflection on our journeys, past, present and future and to take a moment to pay respect to our absent friends and family.
The clock struck 12 and we passed into 2016 – some partied into the night, others went to bed with a sense of eager anticipation of what's to come. We continued till the first light of the new year, sitting on top of the hill with the sounds of the Tibetan ritual chant at the Sunrise Welcome Ceremony.
What mysteries do you hold for us 2016?
Students from the University Queensland have been working together with Brisbane Times to create a timeline of live updates highlighting Woodford Folk Festival's 30th Anniversary:
Bright colours, surprises and excellent music at Woodford
Ask anyone (and we did) it's the people that make this festival feel so special.
Here's a tiny glimpse of what it's like to wander the streets of Woodford.
News: Hogmanay, it's Scottish for fun
Hogmanay is a Scottish word meaning last day of the year, so when you translate this into Woodfordian you can bet it means a massive Scottish flavoured New Years Eve party.
The performance of that name is taking place at the Amphi stage from 10pm with acts from around the world, including Dubmarine and The East Pointers.
The Hogmanay celebrations bring together the best of the folk festivities that have taken place over the last week in the final hours of 2015.
Scottish folk mainstays The Poozies will hold down the traditional vibe of the night, and although their time on stage will close out the year it is by no means the last event of the festival with activities continuing early into the new year.
People: Woodford for a night
Brisbane girls, Maddie and Maddy are celebrating New Year's Eve a little differently this year.
At the very last minute, they booked tickets to Woodford.
"It's my last New Year's Eve before I move to London, so I decided I didn't want to waste another New Year's in Brisbane doing the same boring thing as every other weekend," Maddie said.
It was the first time the girls had ever been to Woodford but it has already surpassed their expectations.
"It's been pretty chilled out and there's so many cool stalls to see. We're really looking forward tonight too – it should be pretty interesting," Maddy added.
News: Three minutes' silence, a Woodford institution
As the bell rings out, the festival's 160-hectare site will be bathed in candle-lit silence for three minutes on as one Woodfordia's most significant institutions begins.
Thousands of people across the festival grounds will fall silent at 11:30pm, encouraged to reflect on absent friends, journeys taken, and cast their minds forward into what the future may hold.
Brisbane woman Lainie Youn brought her children to the festival for the first time and the moment united festival goers in a powerful way.
"It feels like it brings people together," Ms Young said.
"It creates a stillness and creates a conscious coming-together that is very beautiful."
Performance: Ayla overcomes nerves to get fans out of seats
Sunshine Coast musician Ayla was all nerves at her first performance at the Tropic stage on Wednesday.
The 19-year-old delivered her CDs to the general store instead of the festival shop.
"You could get an EP and a carton of milk," joked a band member.
Ayla made her arrival on the Australian music scene with the release of her debut single 'Wish I Was' which gained full rotation on Triple J radio.
She finished her set with the track, which got Woodfordians of all ages jumping off their chairs during the hottest part of the day. Ayla stuck around after the show to meet eager fans.
Food: Cheap eats and snacks
It's time to bust that 3pm slump but you still want to save room for dinner. Here are some snack alternatives to keep you going.
At The Mango Shack you can find barbecued chicken, deep fried mushroom or marinated swordfish kebabs for just $4 each.
Ilias The Greek sells deliciously salty balls, which are Greek feta balls served with herbed salt and lemon for $8.
The Peppercorn Creek Farm stall next to the Grande stage sells two green bars for $5, which actually taste like Snickers bars.
Tornado Potatoes sells exactly that – deep fried spiralled potato on a stick with chicken and paprika salt for $7.
Or you can find a bowl of sweet Potato fries are available from Chocolate and Coffee Heaven for $6 ($1 with house-made aioli).
Performance: Hip hop or circus? Finally we have an answer
It's the burning question haunting society. Which is better… hip hop or circus?
Wait, you weren't wondering? Nevermind, Woodford has decided for you anyway.
Under the Parlour big top the artists sung and flipped, jumped and quipped with a near-equal creative agility.
Rivermouth wowed the crowd with a poignant hip hop routine and almost perfect score but in the end circus won the day.
People: Road trip from Melbourne
Charmaine Consul and her partner drove all the way from Melbourne to be here.
"This is too far to go for a festival," he said, on the way up but now it's a "completely different story", according to Ms Consul.
She'd been wanting to attend for "20-odd years" but said it had surpassed all expectations.
"You don't even have to plan things, you can just wander around and come across stuff that is just like 'wow' I've got to sit and listen to this," she said.
Performance: Perched… above a lake
Only at Woodford could you stumble across a slackwire performance in a natural amphitheatre on the way to dinner.
Perched is a display of agility, balance and strength performed by six performers and accompanied by two musicians playing everything from the tuba to the cello.
Poised above a lake, the performers complete feats ranging from fitting six people in a boat that looks destined to capsize to riding a bicycle across the slackwire.
The genuine athletic and acrobatic ability of the performers had onlookers gasping and shaking their heads in amazement.
Perched is performed everyday at 6:45pm on the Village Green.

Summary of The American Retail Value Proposition
Pages: 256
Looking for the book?
We have the summary! Get the key insights in just 10 minutes.
8 Overall
"The consumer isn't a moron; she is your wife," David Ogilvy famously opined in his book Confessions of an Advertising Man. Although he was admonishing advertisers not to insult consumers' intelligence while marketing to them, the same advice applies to the retail experience. As University of Alberta business professor Kyle B. Murray explains, retailers must offer a "retail value proposition" focused on three elements: "shopping environment, product selection and customer engagement strategy." Murray packs in tons of information and insights into the factors that lead to retail success in today's environment – even as e-commerce further complicates it. He warns that retailers must find, train and retain engaged employees. His overview will interest consumers intrigued by a behind-the-scenes look at what drives retail marketing tactics. And getAbstract finds that his informative retail strategies will appeal to marketing managers, retail executives, store buyers and suppliers, market researchers and investors interested in retail stocks.
In this summary, you will learn
- Why offering a "retail value proposition" generates more profit than competing on price alone,
- What factors contribute to retailing success and
- How "omnichannel retailing" removes the barriers between "physical and electronic shopping."
About the Author
Kyle B. Murray, a marketing professor at the University of Alberta's Alberta School of Business and director of its School of Retailing. He "fell in love with retailing" when working in his father's drugstore in Northern Alberta.

Darius 'Killer' Miller 8-for-9 on threes in Game 1 of German league finals
Former Mason County High School and University of Kentucky star Darius Miller is trying to add to another championship to the three he already has collected.
Miller — who has won a state title with the Royals (2008), an NCAA title with UK (2012) and a German league title with Brose Baskets (2015) — scored a game-high 26 points in Game 1 of Germany's Beko Basketball League finals. Brose Baskets defeated Ratiopharm Ulm 101-82.
The league referred to him as "Killer Miller" on its website and "The Differencemaker" on Twitter after he connected on eight of nine three-point attempts. He was also 2-for-2 at the free-throw line, and he had four assists, one rebound and one blocked shot.
Miller averaged 9.4 points and 2.8 assists during the regular season.
He has stepped it up a notch in the playoffs with 12.6 points and 2.6 assists per game.
He shot 43.9 percent from three-point range during the regular season, and has made 61.8 percent during the postseason.

6 Best Kinds of Clothes We Choose for Pregnant Moms
[amazon table="25516″]
1.Belly Bands
[amazon box="B005N7YXZ8″ template="vertical"]
A lot of women find belly bands indispensable during pregnancy. This genius but straightforward item is basically a stretchy fabric band, which overlaps the top of your unzipped or low-slung skirts, jeans or pants, thus holding them up while leaving enough room for your growing belly.
This Woman's Maternity Everyday Bellaband from Ingrid and Isabel can be worn folded down to hold up unbuttoned jeans and pants during pre-pregnancy, or worn full-panel to stop maternity pants falling down when you're well and truly pregnant.
The band is also ideal as a transition into your pre-pregnancy jeans after you've given birth, and for smoothing your belly coverage while nursing. With an average of 4,3 from 5 stars from over 1,600 customer reviews, this is one belly band that has provided heaps of comfort for a heck of a lot of moms-to-be, and well after.
2.New Bras
[amazon box="B01LXH76FR" template="vertical"]
Tender, swelling, breasts can be one of the first signs you're expecting. Your bust can grow a cup size or more over the next nine months and pretty soon you'll need larger, and more supportive bras.
But don't rush out and buy a bunch of new bras before your baby arrives because your bust size will very probably change again. Just a couple of bras that fit well and have a little space to grow with your pregnancy are more than enough.

How to Buy Maternity Clothing
Of course, you can spend hours dragging your new mom-to-be shape around stores like Target, H&M, and Forever 21. But there is a more convenient way. And who doesn't love convenience? Buying maternity clothes online has never been easier. With just a click of the mouse, you can find inexpensive, trendy, and plus-size maternity clothing at a price that suits your budget.
[Relevance: maternity swimwear]
How Do Maternity Sizes Work?
In general, maternity sizes work just the same as your non-maternity clothing. If you're a 'small' in regular clothes, you'll be a 'small' in maternity clothes too. The same goes for numbers; a size eight regular is a size eight maternity. If you buy designer jeans with, for example, a 28-inch waist before you were expecting, you will also buy 28-inch jeans when you're pregnant; it's just that the designers have created a special 'maternity size 28 inches.'
It's important you don't fall into the trap of buying non-maternity clothes that are merely one or two numbers bigger than your usual size. You'll end up with poorly fitting clothes that are nowhere near as flattering as correctly designed maternity wears. Plus, with time non-maternity clothing is bound to get uncomfortable.
What Does a Maternity Wardrobe Contain?
Some clothing items are true 'must-haves' during pregnancy. In fact, they can go a long way to improving comfort while giving you the chance to keep looking trendy and fashionable as your shape changes.
Maternity shirts and dresses, for example, are extremely popular with moms-to-be because they flow away from the belly and come with a seam right under the bust which means there's plenty of room for your expanding midsection.
Family and Friends Can Help Out With Maternity Clothing Too
It's easy to find all the comfortable and fashionable maternity clothing for pregnant women online. You'll also find cheap and cute maternity clothing too. But don't forget to seek the help of friends and family. Let's talk about your partner's clothes, for example. His roomy button-down shirts and baggy boxers are ideal to wear around the house or even sleep in when your maternity stuff is in the laundry. And maybe it's not a great idea to wear his flannel shirt to a business meeting; you can always get away with a plain or white dress shirt to compliment your outfit.
And remember there's absolutely nothing wrong with asking a friend who has given birth recently to keep a hold of their maternity clothing for you to borrow when the time comes. Most moms are only too happy to see their old maternity clothes go to a new home, particularly when they're done with having kids of their own.
And as a new mom, you might be surprised how quickly you become a fan of hand-me-downs, and before you know it, you'll be collecting your own clothes to pass on later, or to swap with a friend who is also pregnant.

LONDON — I am reading some excerpts from the Treasury Select Committee. (It's a slow day.). This is the UK Parliament's most powerful economic over-sight committee. One assumes these guys have big brains and powerful calculators.
"There's not one person here in this room that could read HSBC's accounts and understand them," said Jon Moulton of Alchemy Partners.
Wow. That's a bit worrying, no?
Dr Jon Danielsson of LSE added: "Complexity is profitable. […] Complexity makes people believe you understand it."
I get it.
Or do I?
I see this as permission for all of us to raise our hands and ask for a proper explanation.
In business simplicity has now got to be close to godliness, though, right?
Amen to that.

Friedman's Inc., the country's third largest retailer jewelry, on Nov. 12 announced it has put its chief financial officer on a leave of absence and that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Justice Department have expanded their probes of fraud allegations against the company.
Friedman's also said its "allowance for doubtful accounts" (i.e., percent of accounts receivables that might not be collectible) for the year (ended Sept. 27) will top the 10.5% previously announced. The company now estimates that figure will be 14%-17%, though that's "subject to further adjustment," based on ongoing review and completion of an audit of its finances.
The Nov. 12 announcements caused Friedman's stock—which had reached a year-high of $17.50 on Sept. 3—to tumble to a 52-week low of $6.77 on Nov. 13.
The SEC, Justice Department, and internal-audit investigations are related to an Aug. 13 lawsuit filed against Friedman's Inc., Crescent Jewelers, Whitehall Jewellers, and several other companies by receivables factoring company Capital Factors for alleged misrepresentation of the accounts receivable of Cosmopolitan Gem Corp., a Bangkok jewelry maker and a former vendor of theirs. Because of that, claims Capital Factors, it continued to advance funds to Cosmopolitan. Capital Factors also alleged they improperly made payments on accounts with Cosmopolitan directly to Cosmopolitan. Capital Factors is suing for at least $30 million and punitive damages. At the time, Friedman's said it would "vigorously" defend itself and would cooperate with the investigations.
On Nov. 12, Friedman's said that its board of directors had put chief financial officer Victor M. Suglia on a leave of absence and "management and the board are considering their alternatives with regard to an interim chief financial officer." It gave no specific reasons for Suglia's removal, and Brad Stinn, chief executive officer, when contacted by JCK, declined to discuss the issue.
The same Friedman's Inc. statement noted the company has been informed by the SEC that it will formally investigate Friedman's, expanding an informal inquiry the SEC began Sept. 8 into Capital Factors' allegations. The upgraded inquiry will review Friedman's "allowance for doubtful accounts" and other financial matters, to determine whether it issued "materially false or misleading disclosures" and whether there are possible violations of regulations governing internal controls, books, and records from Jan. 1, 2000, to the present.
On Nov. 6, Whitehall Jewelers said it had received a subpoena from the Securities and Exchange Commission, part of a formal investigation of Whitehall by the SEC. The subpoena sought documents from the Chicago jewelry retailer related to allegations made in Capital Factors' lawsuit.
In addition, the U.S. Justice Department also has informed Friedman's that it has expanded its own investigation into the Capital Factors matter and also will review Friedman's "allowance for doubtful accounts" and other financial matters.
Stinn declined to comment on any aspect of the investigations, and said the company hasn't been told when the investigations will be completed.
These investigations are affecting Friedman's own reporting procedures. It had scheduled release of the financial results for its fourth quarter and full year (ended Sept. 27) for Nov. 11, 2003. However, it has "rescheduled" the release of the information—though no date has been set—because of "the diversion of company resources necessary to fulfill information requests" from the Justice Department, the SEC, and its own Audit Committee looking into Capital Factors' allegations and other matters.

Windows pirates can now download and run Internet Explorer 7, Microsoft has said.
From the moment it released IE7 almost a year ago, Microsoft has restricted the browser to users who can prove they own a legitimate copy of the operating system by passing its Windows Genuine Advantage (WGA) validation test.
Microsoft had said rights to IE7 was one of the rewards for being legal. It has now changed its mind, saying the move is in users' best interest.
"Because Microsoft takes its commitment to help protect the entire Windows ecosystem seriously, we're updating the IE7 installation experience to make it available as broadly as possible to all Windows users," said IE program manager Steve Reynolds in a company blog. "With today's 'Installation and Availability Update,' Internet Explorer 7 installation will no longer require Windows Genuine Advantage validation and will be available to all Windows XP users."
Microsoft has consistently touted IE7 as a more secure browser, and patch counts back that up. In the past 11 months, IE6 for Windows XP SP2 has been patched 22 times, with 20 of them rated critical. IE7 for XP SP2, however, has been patched only 13 times; 10 of those fixes were ranked critical. In fact, when Microsoft announced that IE7 would not be offered to users running illegal copies of XP, some analysts questioned the company's commitment to security.
This is the first time that Microsoft has removed a WGA check for a major product. Windows Defender, the company's anti-spyware software, and Windows Media Player 11 both still require validation.
Several people who left comments on Reynold's post wondered if there's more to the decision than meets the eye. "I am guessing that this is in reaction to Firefox's growing market share," said someone identified as Dileepa. "I am not surprised at this at all."
Mozilla's Firefox has gained some ground on IE since IE7's launch. According to Net Applications, a web metrics company, Firefox's share is up by about two percentage points since October 2006, while IE6 and IE7 combined slipped by more than three points.
IE7's uptake was dramatic late last year, when it went from about a 3-percent share in October to 18 percent in December, but growth has slowed. Since April it has increased its share by four percentage points, but almost all of it was at the expense of IE6.
The IE7 update also sports a few tweaks: The menu bar is now visible by default, and a new administration kit includes a revamped MSI installer to smooth corporate deployment.
Users can download IE7 or wait for it to appear in Windows Update as a high-priority item. It will take several months for Windows Update to roll out IE7 to all XP customers, and anyone dissatisfied with the new browser can downgrade to IE6 by using the Add/Remove Programs control panel tool.
A blocking tool kit is still available for companies and organisations that don't use Windows Server Update Services and want to permanently prevent IE7 from automatically installing on PCs equipped with IE6.

Matthew 21:6-11 So the disciples went and did as Jesus commanded them. They brought the donkey and the colt, laid their clothes on them, and set Him on them. And a very great multitude spread their clothes on the road; others cut down branches from the trees and spread them on the road. Then the multitudes who went before and those who followed cried out, saying: "Hosanna to the Son of David! 'Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD!' Hosanna in the highest!" And when He had come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, "Who is this?" So the multitudes said, "This is Jesus, the prophet from Nazareth of Galilee."

Cotton has had a long and successful history. Extending across nations and cultures, lending itself to many different uses in many different eras, cotton remains the fiber of choice even today. And for good reason. Cotton is the most universally comfortable, versatile and durable of all the fibers, natural or synthetic. However, while its value as a fiber has been long established, cotton is being produced at a scary expense. In this day of competitive, high yield farming, farmers caught in the chemical rut are consistently putting our health and the environment at risk.
In the United States, approximately 600,000 tons of pesticides and chemical fertilizers are applied to cotton fields each season. The commercial growing field—cotton's manmade womb—is a sterile environment in which insect, plant, and microbial diversity is selectively eradicated for the sake of growing one plant exclusively. Farm workers, who have the highest rate of chemical-related illness of any occupational group in the U.S.A., suffer from approximately 300,000 pesticide-related illnesses each year; and yet, they continue to rely on gross amounts of chemicals for their farming.
The reason is simple: money. In the competitive world marketplace, there is a continual pressure to produce more for less money. By pumping the plants full of heavy doses of synthetic fertilizers—and simultaneously destroying competing species—it is reasoned that one can create maximum yields. Such is the state of commercial farming today. Because of the superficial success these methods have produced, bank financing is readily available to farmers using intense chemical techniques. Conversely, organic farming is looked upon skeptically by money lending institutions.
The negative results of commercial farming are overwhelming. While cheaper than more labor-intensive methods, synthetic fertilizers, herbicides, growth regulators and defoliants are harmful to humans and wildlife, and wipe out all natural biological systems available to the farmer. The chemicals used on cotton are among the most toxic substances used in farming, and the runoff from irrigation is consistently polluting our drinking water. This is unacceptable. Each year 14 million people routinely drink water contaminated with carcinogenic herbicides—much of it from cotton farming. Over 10,000 people die each year from cancer related to pesticides. Something must be done.

We're crusing mid summer and still 'steady as she goes' in the Real Estate Market in Incline Village, Nevada on the North Shore of Lake Tahoe. Here is what's happening inside the Incline Village Real Estate Market for the week of July 19th-25th…
Incline Village Real Estate New Listings…13 condos, 2 PUDs (Planned Unit Developments) and 7 single family homes hit the market this week.
Incline Village Real Estate Price Changes…9 condos (8 went down in price while 1 went up) and 12 single family homes (11 down and 1 up) changed their pricing schemes this week. Not sure that raising your price is going to help anything. 862 Jefrrey, a short sale on the market, is now down to $455K, 825 Southwood is $139,900 and 870 Southwood is down to $139K. 549 Lakeshore is another to watch, what a great deal getting a condo on the lake with a garage. hmmmm 1000 Lakeshore #14 continues to be the best deal in the complex and is now down to $624,900 (remember gang this is walking distance to everything, beaches, Hyatt, restaurants and all the hub ub of Incline Village).
Incline Village Real Estate New Escrows…3 condos, 1 PUD and 4 single family homes went into escrow this week. Of the new single family home escrows 772 Geraldine is a darling little property and what a great deal. 1398 Tirol, after reducing to $399K quickly found a buyer and rightfully so, it's an adorable place with great views. The deal of the week in our opinion is 929 Northwood #88 at $595K, the only drawback to this one is the location at the end of the street and across from Daycare. Might be a little busy with traffic and some screaming??? Mostly happy screams I'm sure!
Incline Village Real Estate New Sales…Only 4 homes sold this week and the first investment property closed in over two years. WOW! A duplex for $295K, doesn't seem like a bad deal to me. It does overlook the highway, but as a true investment property the numbers should pencil out pretty well. Golfers Pass closed for $89K less and sits right on the golf course and after 834 days on the market 538 Dale closed for $1.25Mil (we think the seller scored on that deal).
Incline Village Real Estate Market Rejects…Only 2 condos were rejected by the market this week.Google+
