Professional disaster restorers are in a position to lend organization to the chaos of a fire loss through proper job organization. In this article, we'll discuss light-to-moderate soot damage. Heavy structural damage may force a contractor to depart from "standard" procedures somewhat, and expand the scope of the loss, along with the aggressiveness of restoration procedures.
Addressing Safety Issues
Before beginning a comprehensive restoration program and before the inspection leading to the establishment of a job scope can be undertaken, obvious or anticipated safety and health hazards should be addressed by a trained and experienced restoration contractor. Potential safety issues on fire losses may include:
Structural Integrity: Before entering a severely damaged structure, contractors should post warning signs, brief insureds about obvious or normally anticipated hazards, and require all restoration workers to use appropriate PPE (hard hats, protective hand and footwear to prevent cuts or puncture wounds).
Toxic/Flammable Gases: The structure should be evaluated and tested, as needed, for the presence of toxic or flammable gasses. These hazards should be eliminated or contained before restoration workers are allowed entry.
Particles: At the outset of a severe loss, and during pack-out/tear-out procedures, a variety of potentially toxic or harmful particles will be present. Workers should be advised to use HEPA respirators/air filters and follow OSHA HAZMAT rules for containing these particles to the primary area of damage. If the entire structure is not involved, damaged areas should be sealed off from undamaged areas, using heavy-gauge plastic sheeting and negative air pressure, to avoid cross contamination. Soot particles (PIC) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) are respiratory irritants and potential carcinogens.
Electrical Shock: Contractors must ensure that electrical shock hazards are eliminated before entering by turning off electrical service or breakers controlling the flow of electricity to damaged areas. All damaged wiring should be tested with appropriate circuit testers before tear-out or repairs are attempted. Use insulated tools to prevent accidental shock hazards.
Puncture Wounds:
Contractors must ensure that workers are equipped with protective hand and footwear to avoid the potential for cuts or puncture wounds due to the presence of fasteners (nails, screws).
Microorganisms: On severe losses, and especially where water was the extinguishing medium used by fire fighters, the potential for development of toxigenic mold must not be overlooked. Water-soaked materials must be removed safely, as soon as practical. Pockets of saturation must be opened and dried quickly. The structure should be ventilated to avoid stagnant air conditions that promote microorganism growth. Humidity within the structure should be controlled, if possible, to prevent mold amplification. Respiratory protection for all workers is required until potential exposure situations are contained or eliminated. Ultimately, materials must be returned to acceptable moisture content as defined by IICRC S500-99.
Pathogens: Where applicable, restorers must follow OSHA bloodborne pathogen rules and use the proper PPE prescribed to ensure safety in this sensitive area.
Demolition: Demolition of severely damaged materials may be required to contain or eliminate potential safety hazards involving structural integrity for property occupants or restoration workers. During normal demolition procedures on severe fire losses, and especially in older buildings where a quantity of HAZMAT (lead, asbestos, toxigenic mold) may be present, in addition to fire contaminants, hazardous or toxic particles may be released into respirable air. Where practical, severely damaged rooms or areas should be isolated from salvable areas using heavy-gauge plastic sheeting, combined with the use of negative air pressure and HEPA filtration, to prevent cross contamination. All workers entering these areas must be trained in the use of, and equipped with proper PPE.
Chemical Sensitive Customers: Contractors should use air scrubbers/filters, and special cleaning/deodorizing agents and procedures. Disaster victims have a "right to know" about any potentially hazardous chemical, contaminant or procedure present during the course of work processing. Keep customers (insureds, insurance company representatives, where applicable) informed throughout restoration.
Chemicals: All restoration company employees and subcontractors must follow manufacturer approved product label directions and instruction manuals for accurately measuring, mixing, and using restoration chemicals, supplies or equipments. Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs) for any chemical used on the job site should be readily available for anyone with a material interest to inspect and enhance safety.
Equipment: Equipment brought onto the job site must comply with OSHA and UL regulations and standards for its use and maintenance. Proper training in the use of equipment by the restoration contractor, or subcontractor, is required.
Of course, this isn't an all-inclusive list. Restoration contractors must comply with all municipal and state licensing and code requirements relating to safety, as well as federal OSHA safety and health guidelines as outlined in CFR 1910 Part 20, or appropriate state regulations that exceed federal mandates.
These safety issues have a direct bearing on the quality and sequence of the restoration work effort. Safety compliance also reflects directly on the qualification and professionalism of the restoration contractor. Moreover, failure to comply with basic safety protocols can result in remaining contamination that could impact the safety and health of structure occupants over time.

Between 15% and 20% of students who participate in a mini-company programme in secondary school will later start their own company, a figure that is about three to six times of that of the general population.
Investing in education for entrepreneurship is one of the highest return investments policy-makers in Europe can make to support growth and business creation. Yet, according to a recent Eurobarometer Entrepreneurship survey three quarters of Europeans say that they have never taken part in an entrepreneurship course. The acquisition of entrepreneurial abilities also enhances the employability of our youth: according to recent research, 78% of entrepreneurship education alumni were employed directly after graduating at university, against 59 % of a control group of higher education students.
Today in Bologna at the fourth meeting of EU SME envoys, European Commission Vice President Antonio Tajani, Commissioner for Industry and Entrepreneurship, presented recent Commission projects on educating the educators (see below). The SME envoys also discussed with VP Tajani and EU SME envoy Daniel Calleja Crespo the Entrepreneurship Action Plan launched in January, which contains initiatives for entrepreneurial education and training.
Since 2009 the EU has co-funded a series of projects to support entrepreneurship education:
Nine projects co-funded by the Commission already directly benefitted around 6 500 students and young people and 900 teachers. Considering the indirect effects (as a result of dissemination and information activities, production of pedagogical materials, etc.), the number of young people benefiting from those projects grows to at least 100 000. However the added value of these European projects lies especially in their potential for extension, transfer and wider dissemination within the Member States:
Entrepreneurship education and Secondary schools
In the Entrepreneurship Action Plan the Commission invited Member States to offer the young people the opportunity to have at least one practical entrepreneurial experience before leaving compulsory education, such as running a mini-company, being responsible for an entrepreneurial project for a company or a social project. The Commission also intends to establish, as part of the "SME Week", a Europe-wide EU Entrepreneurship Day for students in their last year of secondary education. Events could include meetings with entrepreneurs, case studies, lectures, workshops and company open days.
Entrepreneurship education and Higher education
The role of higher education in entrepreneurship goes far beyond the delivery of knowledge to participating in ecosystems, partnerships and industrial alliances. With high-tech and high growth enterprises increasingly becoming a focus of entrepreneurship-related public policies, higher education institutions are an active component of the innovation policies of Member States. EU Higher education in entrepreneurship can boost high-tech and high growth companies by supporting business ecosystems, partnerships and industrial alliances.

Finding Your Path
Preparing our students for successful professional and personal lives is what we've been doing at Simmons for more than 100 years. It's not a sideline or an afterthought for us — it's our mission.
While not all of our students start out with a vision of their future, Simmons allows students to get hands-on experience, build impressive resumes, connect with alumnae, and ultimately find their path to a successful career.

From A to B and Back Again | The Photography Blog
© Eleanor Antin, 1971-73, 100 Boots / Fifty-one photolithographic postcards
The 1960s and 1970s are recognized as the defining era of the Conceptual Art movement, a period in which centuries held assumptions about the nature of art itself were questioned and dissolved. Until now, the pivotal role that photography played in this movement has never been fully examined. The Art Institute of Chicago has organized the first major survey of influential artists of this period who used photography in ways that went far beyond its traditional definitions as a medium – and succeeded thereby in breaking down the boundaries of all mediums in contemporary art. (read more)
These photos are part of the exhibition: 'Light Years: Conceptual Art and the Photograph, 1964 – 1977′ at the Art Institute of Chicago.

EAGLE, WI (WTAQ) - Wisconsin's largest historic site is looking for volunteers to help with its spring cleaning.
Old World Wisconsin near Eagle in Waukesha County is holding its annual cleanup day on Saturday, April 20th.
The site features dozens of historic buildings that were once located in a variety of places around the Badger State. Officials say most of the cleanup work will take place outside, with the goal of clearing debris from the winter.
Volunteers are urged to bring their own gloves, rakes, and other outdoor tools. Lunch will be provided.
If it rains, the cleanup will take place the following Saturday, April 27th.

Here is a flavorful dish that I love to make. It's super easy and has the best flavor-combo one can use for seafood; any seafood too. Works great on shrimp, salmon, scallops and even lobster. Very versatile sauce, and one that will be your go to sauce. Living on cape cod one becomes used to eating a lot of scallops. This dish sounds like it's hard to prepare but its not--I just made the photo all kinds of fancy for you.
scallops with hoisin-orange sauce
1 8.5-ounce jar hoisin sauce (I used little more than half of this when cooking for 2)
1/3 cup orange juice
1 1/2 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar
1 tablespoon grated orange peel
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons minced peeled fresh ginger
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons oriental sesame oil
1 teaspoon chili-garlic sauce
1 teaspoon fish sauce (nam pla)
1 bunch watercress, trimmed (sometimes I skip this)
1 medium cucumber, peeled, seeded, cut into matchstick-size strips
1 medium carrot, peeled, cut into matchstick-size strips
3/4 cup cilantro leaves (from large bunch)
1/2 red onion, very thinly sliced
1 1/2 teaspoons whole coriander seeds (I used 1 ts of dried instead)
1 tablespoon oriental sesame oil
1 tablespoon minced peeled fresh ginger
12 large sea scallops
Vegetable oil
For sauce:
Mix all ingredients in bowl. (Can be made 1 week ahead. Cover; chill. Bring to room temperature before using.) ß I did not do this but cooked the sauce (see below).
For vegetables:
Mix first 4 ingredients in large bowl. Add watercress, cucumber, carrot, cilantro, and onion and toss to blend. Season with salt and pepper. Let stand 30 minutes or chill up to 1 hour, tossing occasionally.
For scallops:
Stir coriander seeds in small skillet over medium heat until fragrant and slightly darker, about 2 minutes. Transfer seeds to plastic bag. Using mallet or hammer, coarsely crack seeds. Combine sesame oil and ginger in medium bowl; mix in coriander seeds, then scallops. Let stand at least 30 minutes or chill up to 1 hour.
Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Thread 3 scallops onto each of 4 skewers. Brush barbecue rack with oil to prevent sticking. Grill scallops until just opaque in center, about 3 minutes per side. Divide vegetables among 4 plates. Top each with scallops and serve, passing hoisin-orange sauce separately.
Serves 2 in my house (might serve 4)
Note: It's too cold to grill outside, so what I did was cook scallops in pan in a little oil or non-stick pan, set aside, then cooked the veggies, then combined the two together. And then in a separate pan I cooked/warmed up/reduced the sauce with about 1 TB of cornstarch. I used cornstarch to make a thicker sauce. Keep in mind the sauce is really strong and I don't advise pouring it all over the scallops, just a few dabbles on each plate should be good. Serve with Jasmine or sticky rice. (to make the rice uniform like I did, just stuff a good amount of rice into a ramekin, flip upside-down on plate, let sit for a while or until ready to plate and you should have a nice uniform pile of rice).

A Warrior legacy
As Henrico H.S. turns 50, alumni recall proud tradition
On opening day Sept. 4, 1962, tenth-grader Lee Good Hanchey was one of 1,167 students at the brand new Henrico High School, where she needed 23 units to graduate and racial diversity was practically non-existent. Teams and clubs had yet to be formed, traditions yet to be made.
"It was a clean brand new campus and very different looking from the older high schools with lots of new things to be part of," Hanchey recalled recently. "I thought it was a very exciting place to be."
Hanchey would go on to teach at the school she loved from 1979-2009, pioneering and guiding the Center for the Arts, helping to lead and define Warrior spirit.
This year, Henrico High School celebrates its 50th anniversary with a "Warrior Jubilee." Hanchey, other former and current teachers and administrators, and alumni gathered around a conference table at the school last month to talk about what they've seen change and plans for the school's future.
Warrior Spirit begins
The summer before the school opened in 1962, students were brought together from rival middle schools, Brookland and Fairfield, to decide the colors (green, gold and white) and pick the mascot (the Warrior). Pregame bonfires the Thursdays before homecoming were the norm and helped build unity in the newly formed community, Hanchey said.
"It was a lot of fun to gather out there and celebrate as a group, but I can't imagine doing that today, but it was a lot of fun," she said.
Even into the 1970s, every Friday during all sports seasons – not just football season – there was a pep rally, said Judy Whytley Ganzert, who taught at Henrico from 1974-1989.
Hanchey said that the pep rallies she attended as a student were different from those she saw as a teacher, because the whole school community was really involved.
"I remember everybody cheered, because everybody knew the cheers – they were taught the cheers," Hanchey said. "It was a big deal – it created a tremendous amount of school spirit. It wasn't a disengagement from school."
Judy Ganzert fondly remembered the massive homecoming parades that would start at Azalea Mall, go through the small field, and end with two laps around the track surrounding the football field.
"The kids would spend forever dreaming up their themes and their plans and rigging their trucks, and the girls who were on homecoming court got the convertibles and rode in the convertibles," she said. "The homecoming court would be dropped off at the main gate and the princesses would go up and sit in their little seats."
Tom Jeremiah, the school's director of student activities and a multi-sport coach who came to Henrico in 1985 to teach English, said that while the parades still take place, they don't occur on the track anymore. Principal Ron Rodriguez said, with a laugh, that there are no plans to bring the bonfires back.
Curriculum and culture change
Coach, physical education and drivers' education teacher Bo Ellett, who worked at Henrico for 38 years and retired in 2006, said that when he started at the school, there were just 12 students who weren't white. "The changes were really gradual," Ellett said.
Hanchey had looked forward to the newly desegregated school system when she started as a student but said that it wasn't until she was a teacher that she saw the biggest demographic shift, particularly after the International Baccalaureate program came to the school in 1995 and the Center for the Arts in 1990.
"What I really, really loved as a teacher here was that we had kind of a mini United Nations," Hanchey said. "We had students from every conceivable country, and it's just a great place to teach because you have lots of different kinds of students come to this school to study.
"It made this school – and this school was already a welcoming place, the students very accepting of other people and of their talents and of their abilities, and I love that about Henrico High School."
Ellet said that when the school added the IB program, it made him a better teacher. It also brought in different viewpoints about activities, Jeremiah said, and diversified the types of clubs the school offered.
As of 2011, the student population was 72 percent African-American, nine percent Asian, 15 percent white, three percent Hispanic and two percent other, Rodriguez said, with 47 percent of the student's families living at the poverty level.
In 2009, Newsweek magazine ranked the school as No. 929 of its list of the top 1,500 U.S. high schools – the only Henrico County school to make the list.
"When you look at that [poverty rate] and turn and look at the success rate and the achievement level we get at Henrico High School, it's still very high. We're very proud of that," said Ganzert, who left Henrico in 1989 to become the specialist for social studies for Henrico County Public Schools.
Expectations and support
Sometime in the last half-century, the attitudes of some alumni toward the school changed and multi-generational attendance and support waned.
"Lee and I, in working on the 50th, are trying our hardest to change some alumni thinking about what Henrico is today," said Lynette Riddell Metzger, class of '72. "Unfortunately, some people say, 'I don't want to go back to that school; I don't want to be on that campus for a football game.' We're like, 'What?' Lee and I don't get it, but we're trying to understand."
That's also Jeremiah's greatest frustration.
"Somebody whose child is going to another school, they come and look at the trophies and say, 'I graduated from here, I did this, I did that. Why come back?'" he said.
Hanchey said she'd heard the same thing when she was advocating for the Center for the Arts. People would say, "It's dangerous there." She'd respond, "'If it's dangerous, why am I still teaching there now? I would not be working for a place that's dangerous.' The biggest thing was that once I got them onto campus and they saw the programs, they were sold about how wonderful this school is."
Attitudes already are changing for the better, Rodriguez said. Metzger is determined that the anniversary celebration – to be held on campus for all alumni – will be the chance to prove to everyone what a great place it is.
"If we can just get them here, I told them it's like the movie 'Field of Dreams,'" Metzger said. "I'm looking at Lee like, 'If we plan this they will come. Right?'"
The event will feature walking tours, speeches and performances by distinguished alumni (including noted author David Baldacci), opportunities to get involved in pre-game activities, a 5K run benefiting Henrico athletics, recognition of alumni, faculty and administration and catered events. Students will be helping with many of the events.
Some familiar sights
The meeting place for many a student break, for parent pick-up and emblem of school spirit always was the stately Warrior head mounted in front of a small wall at the front of the campus, said Metzger. "It still is," Rodriguez said.
"Over the years, it was always having paint thrown on it. When we played Hermitage it would be painted blue or red," Metzger said. "It was always a target for rivalries."
The original head – designed by Henry "Chuck" Richardson, one of the original three black students at the school who later became a Richmond City Councilman – was blown up years ago. All that remained was a piece of metal rebar, Ganzert said, but the spot remained a popular meeting place for nearly another decade.
Nobody ever discovered who blew the head up, but its void did present an excellent learning opportunity for the students at the then-new Center for the Arts to design a new Warrior, Hanchey said.
Among other things that haven't changed: No one likes inclement weather at this outdoor campus.
"I used to say, 'You'll love Henrico High School – it's like being at Kings Dominion with a water ride. You will get wet,'" Hanchey said.
Last month, the Henrico County School Board approved a $23-million, three-year renovation budget that will change the way foot traffic flows around the campus. Improvements will include combining the auditorium main office and gym in one locale, Rodriguez said. These and other improvements will help create a more secure campus and force everybody to centralize.
"That is going to be so cool," Ellett said.
The renovation, however, will not impact the Warrior head, which will remain in its "sacred" location as a beacon of school spirit, Rodriguez said.

Fox59 #1 in the Morning, #1 Prime News & Growing All Newscasts
Fox59 is once again the #1 morning news to wake up to and #1 primetime news in Central Indiana. In addition, Fox59 News is the only Central Indiana station that is increasing local news viewership in every news time period - mornings, afternoons/early evenings and late news.
"Our growth in every news time period is unmatched in the Indianapolis market and, arguably, in the entire country ," said Vice President and General Manager Larry Delia. "Viewers have clearly responded to our commitment to be on the air and available to them far more than our competitors."
More viewers woke up to "Fox59 Morning News" at 4am and 430am than any other local or national newscast in the time periods. At 5am, "Fox59 Morning News" is up 9%, surpassing WISH in the time period and closing within a tenth of a rating point of WTHR.
For the first time, "Fox59 Morning News" finished #2 at 6am, increasing viewership by 26% and passing WISH in the time period. This hour of "Fox59 Morning News" is the fastest growing morning newscast on any station and is now less than a single rating point from overtaking WTHR, which lost 9% year-to-year.
From 7-9am, "Fox59 Morning News" grew by 9% year-to year, and "Fox59 Morning News" from 9-10am is up 31% year to year. Both local newscasts are challenging NBC's "Today" in the time periods.
"Central Indiana viewers have noticed we are different and special," said News Director Lee Rosenthal. "We are there every morning with the big, breaking news and weather stories, but we also have the best team and best personalities, both on the air and behind the scenes."
"Fox59 News at 10" is once again the #1 primetime newscast and grew audience by 12% year-to-year. "Fox59 News at 10" more than tripled its competition on WNDY, which lost 28% of its audience.
Fox59 News is the only station growing news viewership in the afternoon and early evening. "Fox59 News: First at Four" increased by 29%, easily passing WISH's "The Doctors", which declined 31%. In its first May sweeps period, "Fox59 News: Live at Five" was up 172% from previous programming in the time period.
Fox59 is a Tribune Broadcasting station. Tribune is one of the country's leading multimedia companies, operating businesses in publishing, digital and broadcasting. In publishing, Tribune's leading daily newspapers include the Los Angeles Times, Chicago Tribune, The Baltimore Sun, Sun Sentinel (South Florida), Orlando Sentinel, Hartford Courant, The Morning Call and Daily Press. The company's broadcasting group operates 23 television stations, WGN America on national cable and Chicago's WGN-AM. Popular news and information websites complement Tribune's print and broadcast properties and extend the company's nationwide audience.Copyright © 2014, Orlando Sentinel

Hey all,
anyone ever encountered this?
on Friday we had a bottle of St. Urbans-Hof riesling, 2004. Great wine. Love it to pieces.
But what was weird was when I poured myself the last glass (funny how that works, isn't it?) from the bottle, I received about 1/16 tsp. of yellowish, crystalized sediment - almost straight sugar crystals. The crystals were large - 1-2mm in diameter, and were stained yellow, the same color as the wine. And yes, they were crunchy and tasted of sugar, nothing else.
Anyone else ever encountered this? Are they sweetening the wine post-fermentation??

I want to hear from the idiots who voted yes.Are they going to hold a parade in Dayton for the kid who went to Dunbar. He got his ring quicker than James.Better yet who is the moron who thought up this stupid question.
lol....have a parade for a guy who plays a game and makes 100's of millions of dollars. didn't the whole state of ohio call him a spoiled, entitled whiner who just gets whatever he wants? yeah, let's reinforce that with a parade.
After 24hrs thinking about this question my answer is no. "The running of the bulls in Spain" would be more appropiate.
ARE YOU SERIOUS?? Next question please.
They ARE having a parade and a party for LeBron. The parade planners have taken their skills to South Beach and they'll be partying until next season. Can't blame LeBron for not wanting to play in Cleveland. Lets see, Cleveland or South Beach, hmmm?....
Cleveland should just fold in basketball and football, they can't compete in either and the best Free Agents avoid the place like Chernobyl. Players will sign in DETROIT before they'll sign with Cleveland, they only exist so other teams can fill their schedule and get a win. When is the last time they've won a title in any sport? They're PATHETIC.
BAHAHAHA. That's really funny!!!!!!!!!!!!
He was a joke when he played for the Cavs, he could not cut the mustered in Cleveland so he ran to the HEAT. True greatness would of been to stay in Cleveland and win a Championship, like Jordan did with the Bull's.

Title says it all. I bought the Millenicom service, and moved the SIM card from the hotspot to my UML290. Can I sell my 4620LE on eBay as a 'clean ESN' device that someone else could activate on VZW, even though I'm still using the SIM card in my UML290?
Just curious, how much were you wanting to sell it for?
You are selling the device without the SIM? Where is the unsuspecting buyer going to track down a SIM?
Just noticed I didn't answer the question asked. Yes you should be able to sell the device without much issue as it can be activated by the other party even if you're still using your SIM. Once they put in their sim card, it associates their sim card with that device.As far as the other question, you can go into any verizon store and get a replacement sim...if you have service with verizon. I assume millenicom would be able to ship a replacement sim card for a customer of there's as well but I've never needed to so I don't know how that works.
Millenicom doesn't have a SIM-only plan.
Millenicom's verizon hotspot is a 4g LTE plan. This plan uses a SIM card. I wasn't implying millenicom had a sim only plan but for a replacement sim card if you are a current customer.
Hey applerule,How is your UML290 with the sim card out of the 4620LE? Im thinking of upgrading my advance plan to the hotspot plan then buying a used or new UML290 so I can connect to my cradlepoint mbr95.Did you buy new or used? If used did you have any problems? Also its LTE correct?Thanks--»mc-buildville.enjin.com/
The 4620LE can connect to the MBR95 as is, via WiFi as WAN-- ... need help? »evdo-tips.com/
Yeah but for some reason I feel more comfortable plugged in. I found tons of the used usb's modems for $40 online with the wifi hotspot used going for $100.Thanks for chiming in though : )--»mc-buildville.enjin.com/
The UML290 works great. Hook it up to a PC first and set it to LTE only mode so it doesn't bounce between 3g/4g. Also, you'll need a micro SIM to SIM card adapter. You can get them from some cell phone stores and from amazon. I'd just order one from amazon. I don't use mine in a cradlepoint router (I have my own home-built router using pfsense), but I suspect there would be no problems. Good luck!
THANK YOU for telling me about the micro sim to sim adapter lol. That just saved me from a headache!--»mc-buildville.enjin.com/
Did you buy your uml290 new or used? I just received everything today and at first I tried out the 4620. It only gave me 2 LTE bars but it was getting me 5mbps but would drop connection now and then. What sucks is that my ext antenna cable is a bit too big to put in the ext antenna port so I had to do some modifying using a knife. Even then I was only getting 2 bars again but a bit more stable.I then got my uml290 that I bought off of ebay used. I swapped the sim cards using the adapter I bought off of amazon and shoved it in my cradlepoint mbr95. I was getting a 90% signal but only getting 3mbps. I thought it might have to be updated or so so I installed the verizon access manager and attempted to connect but it was telling me that it needs a firmware. I think this is where I screwed up....It was working fine in my cradlepoint but after I did the firmware upgrade I started getting a weaker signal and slower speeds. I put it back in my cradlepoint and still slow speeds.»www.speedtest.net/result/2464853163.pngim pretty much getting the same speeds I was getting with my old advanced plan. And im not using my ext antenna right now, too much plastic blocking it.....any advice?--»mc-buildville.enjin.com/
After some cutting of the plastic with a sharp knife, i was able to attach the ext antenna and get 100% signal.»www.speedtest.net/result/2464853163.pngnow this is faster then my advanced plan and I could live with this but I see people getting faster speeds which i wouldnt mind having too lol.--»mc-buildville.enjin.com/
Sorry, I haven't checked this thread in a few days.Make sure you have the antenna plugged into the port that looks like a satellite dish on it. There are two antenna ports on the UML290, and you want to be in the one with the dish on it. (See »3gstore.com/device/113_verizon_p···290.html)Also, I set my UML290 to 4G only with the VZ Access Manager software.What kind of antenna are you using? Do you get any better data rates if you drive closer to the tower?You may want to make a new thread (just so you get more visibility with a more logical title) and post your issues with your SINR/RSSI numbers. Some of the folks here are very good at narrowing down signal issues.

Vejvisning til Momotown Privates
kort og rutebeskrivelse
Krakows airport is now under construction and the shuttle train to town is no longer in service. If it is not a taxi (trip costs around PLN 70, which is c. 18 euros) take a bus no. 208 or 292 to the main train/bus station.
From there, we suggest you take a tram no. 50. You need to take a tram with directions Kurdwanow or Biezanow Nowy, get off at fifth stop called Miodowa, and turn right into Ulica Miodowa and proceed to number 28. You can buy tickets form machines inside a tram, and just remember to validate them.
You can also take a tram no. 3, 19, 24 (from Dworzec Glowny) and get off at third stop Miodowa.
Walking from the train/bus station lasts approximately 15 minutes. You need to get to the underground passage situated in front of the main train station building. Leaving to the left, take Ulica Westerplatte and get to the big Post Office building, then take a left into Ulica Starowislna (not to confuse with Ulica Wielopole), cross Ulica Dietla and straight along Ulica Starowislna get to Ulica Miodowa. Now you only need to make a right, we are at number 28.
Taxi stands are located above train station platforms, in front of the bus station building, or in front of the shopping centre. Expect to pay no more then around PLN 20 (c. 5 euro).

The hot temperatures have certainly taken a toll on many Minnesotans, but it's also causing problems for their cars. FOX 9 News got some tips from mechanics on how to weather the next heat wave.
On a day when the temperatures top 90 and the heat index is flirting with the triple digits, no one wants to be stuck on the side of the highway with an overheated engine.
"It's definitely been a problem the last couple of days because it's been so hot," Hollie Edlund told FOX 9 News.
Edlund and her husband, Isaac, pulled over, turned off the air conditioner and hoped their engine would cool down.
"It's frustrating because it's so hot in the car," Isaac Edlund admitted.
Yet, Hollie Edlund admitted she didn't plan on taking the car in for a check-up.
"Elaine just needs to cool down a little bit," she said. "Elaine, the car."
Mechanics like Gary Goeman say a lot of people assume a problem on a hot day will go away once the temperatures drop again, but that's not always the case.
"A lot of people can make problems worse by ignoring problems on these hot days," he warned.
That can be a costly mistake, because it could lead to more damage -- and more dollars spent at the shop -- than getting the original problem fixed.
"The phone rings off the hook on days like this," Goeman said.
Goeman owns Auto Pros in Chaska, and he said business gets a 25-30 percent boost when the temperatures top the 90s.
"The heat puts a lot more stress on water pumps, on the whole cooling system," he explained.
When air conditioning stops kicking out cool air, many motorists first assume they are low on Freon -- but Goeman says that might not be the case.
"A lot of times, the cooling fins on the radiator or AC condenser are plugged with seeds, lint, debris, dirt, mud and need to be flushed out," he said.
Although the forecast predicts a cooler couple of days coming up, there's a lot of summer left on the calendar. To avoid getting caught on the curb, Goeman recommends checking to ensure fluids are full, the battery is in good shape, and tires get topped off.
"Heat is a different animal," he said. "It affects different parts of the car."

A Huntsville boutique is fighting back against shoplifters.
Store owners put surveillance video of a woman they say stole from them on Facebook for everyone to see.
It wasn't long before they knew her name, and the case was passed to police.
It was another Huntsville store owner who saw the Facebook post and recognized the woman as someone they say also, stole from them.
The video clearly shows a woman putting several items in her purse before walking out of the store, but we get a close look at her face when she comes back to search for her misplaced car keys.
Store owners say they were suspicious of the woman because of her behavior, but it wasn't until Monday evening they noticed some items were missing.
They did a quick inventory to realize several hundred dollars worth of merchandise was gone.
The store has cameras in every room, so the owners went through the surveillance video and were able to pick out the person they say is responsible.
"She was really good at lifting things and putting things in her purse, right under our noses. She filled that thing up, went out to her car, and came back for more," said Hilary Russell.
The store is now working with police on this case. They plan to prosecute to the fullest extent of the law, and they also hope to get all of their merchandise back.

Friday May 13, 2011
"No other city in America has embarked on an initiative like the Louisville Loop," said Mayor Greg Fischer. "The Loop will not only set us apart as a desirable city, it will bring us together as a community -- helping connect people to recreation, to their work and to the places they do business."
At the event, on the east end of Lannan Park tomorrow, Metro Parks will unveil a new sign and wayfinding system as well as a website dedicated to the Louisville Loop. In addition, Transit Authority of River City (TARC) will introduce a new route featuring redesigned buses that will operate on weekends and holidays. The route connects a dozen Louisville neighborhoods near downtown and western Louisville to the Loop and other Metro Parks.
"Thousands of people from throughout the Louisville area have already discovered the Louisville Loop as a premiere hiking and biking destination," Metro Parks Director Mike Heitz said. "We're pleased to be able to make these improvements, and bring information about the Loop to a wider audience." The event, titled "Discover the Loop," will last from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and will take place on the east end of Lannan Park. Mayor Fischer, Heitz, TARC Executive Director Barry Barker and Metro Department of Public Health and Wellness Director Dr. Matt Zahn will be in attendance and will speak at a press conference at 11 a.m.
In addition, live entertainment, informational, business and craft booths, fun children's activities and a park beautification project will take place at the park during the event. Officials with TARC will demonstrate how to load bikes onto the new bus and will hand out "Loop to the Loop" printed bus schedules.
"TARC is excited about helping achieve the goal of a healthier Louisville," Barker said. "The new TARC weekend and holiday bus route gives people more opportunities to develop healthy habits while enjoying our parks and the Louisville Loop."
Metro Parks' staff is developing a plan to help improve access, safety, education and the overall experience for the 23 miles of existing Loop that includes the Riverwalk and Levee Trail, stretching west and south from Waterfront Park to Riverside, the Farnsley-Moremen Landing. Previous public input has led to the development of prototype signs that will be on display and in place at the event. People will be able to see and interact with the signs, then give feedback on them.
The Loop, a key component the City of Parks initiative to expand and improve Louisville's public parks, is a paved shared-use path encircling the city that will measure more than 100 miles when complete. It offers recreational and alternative transportation routes for cyclists, joggers and walkers. Sections of the Loop will also accommodate horseback riders.
The signage and development of the website, as well as the TARC bus design and new route, has been funded in part by a grant from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in conjunction with the Health Department.
As part of the Healthly Hometown movement, Mayor Fischer will announce the city's 11th Mayor's Mile at the Portland Family Health Center, 2215 Portland Ave. Mayor's Miles are a fun and easy wayfinding system of signs and groundmarkers that give folks a convenient and encouraging place to meet to walk and run together. They also help to mark the distance so people will know when they have walked a mile.
Future segments of the Loop will include:
· a southern route from the Ohio River Levee Trail extending east through Jefferson Memorial Forest and McNeely Lake Park to Bardstown Road;
· the Floyds Fork Greenway, from Bardstown Road to Shelbyville Road, passing through new parks being developed by 21st Century Parks;
· a northeast route, from Shelbyville Road to River Road;
· a route along the Ohio River corridor, leading from the northeast suburbs to Waterfront Park;
· paths along the Olmsted Parkways.

All along, Jennifer Goldetsky has said she didn't mistreat any children at her Oakdale home daycare.
Now talking publicly about the case for the first time, Goldetsky says she's relieved a jury finally agreed with her.
"It was a lot to take in when you are accused of doing something and you are found not guilty," said Goldetsky. "But we're still trying to get over what happened to us."
Prosecutors claimed Goldetsky panicked when two social workers stopped by for an unannounced visit back in February and locked three young boys in a shed in the backyard with no shoes or jackets for 45 minutes because she was afraid of getting in trouble for taking care of too many children.
But after a three day trial in Washington County District Court, a jury of one man and five women deliberated for about a half hour before returning with a verdict of not guilty on two counts each of child endangerment and neglect.
"I was offered plea bargains by the county and I decided if I'm going down, I am going down fighting for my name and I won," said Goldetsky.
Now that the criminal case is behind her, Goldetsky says she has no plans to re-open her own daycare; however, she does plan to appeal the revocation of her daycare license to clear her name.
"Thank God its over and my family can heal. That's all I can say," said Goldetsky.
If convicted, Goldetsky faced up to a year in jail and up to $3,000 in fines.

World Cup Round Up: 1st-2nd OctoberOctober 03, 2011
The World Cup Pool stages are all wrapped up and we move onto the business end of the tournament with the quarter-final knockouts in Auckland and Wellington this weekend. No further chances of an incredible upset by the minnows, an undiscovered superstar or a one-sided demolition – perhaps unsurprisingly, the final 8 will be comprised of the top 8 world rugby-playing nations from New Zealand to Argentina.
Talk will undoubtedly return to the question of whether the hosts have what it takes to go all the way or whether they will capitulate under the weight of expectation from an entire nation of rugby fanatics. Will Australia be able to repeat their Tri-Nations victory and topple South Africa and New Zealand? Can England reach their third final in three consecutive World Cups? Will Argentina outdo their efforts of 2007? Will the Green Army and neutral's favourites, Ireland, build on the momentum taken from dominating their Pool?
The weekend's final games certainly gave some indication as to what the answers will be come 23rd of October. Here is our round up of the best of the action...
