As with any company, in the end it all comes down to the team (or teams) you work with that will ultimately shape your experience. With the account I work on (one of the main cash cows):
- For the most part feels like a little sorority/girls club. Very catty, they spend all day gossiping and speaking negatively about people and each other. Very exhausting negative energy to be around all day. If you're not in their little clique, prepare for indirect harassment.
- Not friendly at all, and very arrogant
- This is "my turf" feel. Very divisive.
- Extremely disorganized.
- Poor onboarding process within the team. Give you little to nothing to work with yet expect high returns.

Online advertising hit a new high of $7.3 billion in Q1 2011 – a 23 percent increase over Q1 2010 and the highest Q1 revenue level ever, according to new data from the Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB) and PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC). This follows last year's record-breaking first half, in which advertisers spent $12.1 billion. Annual 2010 revenue reached $26.04 billion, a 15 percent increase from 2009, also a new high.
The IAB released this chart highlighting quarterly ad revenue growth in billions since 1999:
The IAB only issues a full reports for half-year and full-year data, so there aren't exact details on the exact amount search accounted for in Q1. However, looking at their 2010 report (PDF), search likely accounted for about 46 percent of revenue, or roughly $3.4 billion.
For all of 2010, search advertising accounted for 46 percent of online advertising ($12 billion), down from 47 percent in 2009. Though search's piece of the pie was down due to strong gains in display advertising, search revenue grew to $12 billion in 2010 from $10.7 billion in 2009.
Similarly, in Q4 2010, search revenues accounted for 45 percent of revenues, down from 47 percent in Q4 2009, but revenues grew 14 percent to $3.3 billion in 2010 from $2.9 billion in 2009.

Sugar as Face Scrub? Yes! Plus More Kitchen Beauty Tips
Posted By Barbara Hannah Grufferman On May 15, 2014 @ 12:08 pm In Be Your Best | Comments Disabled
Did you know there are products [1] just sitting on your kitchen shelves and waiting to be used for more than sweetening your tea or making lemonade?
I went nosing around in my kitchen [2] recently to see what I could use for better health and beauty.
Here are a few of my favorite homemade health and beauty aids. None has artificial ingredients or chemicals. They're good for you and good for the environment.
1. Facial and Body Scrub: Exfoliating is one of the most important things we can do for the health of our skin, both face and body. Plain old white sugar is one of the best exfoliants around. Keep a jar of it in your shower. Take a handful and gently massage your entire body with it, using a soft washcloth, and be extra gentle with your face. Rinse and the sugar crystals simply melt away down the drain. So much better than eating it!

2. Moisturizer for Hair, Face and Body: The ancient Romans knew what they were doing when they slathered "liquid gold" on every part of their bodies, saving a little for their hair. It can be used for just about anything. Watch this [4] to see what olive oil can do.
3. Jump-Start Your System: There are so many things you can do with lemon juice (preferably freshly squeezed). Soak your nails in it (without polish) to reduce yellowing. And better yet, take a tablespoon or two of freshly squeezed juice and mix into a tall glass of warm water. Imbibe it first thing in the morning, before drinking or eating anything else. It's a great way to hydrate and jump-start your system.
4. Treat Rosacea: Yogurt is an effective treatment for rosacea, a common skin condition. It softens skin while calming the redness – especially after eating something spicy or enjoying a little too much heart-healthy red wine. Apply it as a mask and leave on for about 15 minutes. Rinse and apply a light layer of olive oil.
5. Chemical-Free Kitchen and Bathroom Disinfectant: For better overall health, try to avoid using chemicals in your home. To disinfect your kitchen and bathrooms, make this simple solution and use as your everyday kitchen countertop cleaner: Mix water, ¼ cup white vinegar, 8 drops of tea tree oil and a few drops of lavender oil (for fragrance) in a spray bottle, and shake well. Tea tree oil has natural disinfectant properties, and the white vinegar is a terrific general cleaning product.

I'm not going to link to it here, because it was cynical, atrocious link bait, but if you want to go find the Slate advice column about how women can just magically stop rapists from raping by not getting drunk, you can go do that. But you're better off reading Lori's takedown, or Roxane Gay's response, a piece about how royally messed up our collective conversation about sexual assault is:
We have to talk about young women exercising better judgment to reduce their risk because it's such a seductive fantasy: If we're good enough girls, maybe we won't get raped. Slate's Emily Yoffe offers the latest iteration of this fantasy in a piece that purports to advocate common sense. Young women should avoid binge drinking; they should avoid making themselves unnecessarily vulnerable. Yoffe essentially suggests that an excess of alcohol in a woman's bloodstream turns otherwise normal men into rapists, so we best avoid that. Yoffe also works through her own anxieties as a parent. She has a daughter heading off to college next year, you see. And of course, there is this incontrovertible evidence: "I have never been so drunk that I browned out, blacked out, passed out, or puked from alcohol ingestion." If she can maintain her self-control, so should we all.
It's natural to dismiss Yoffe's piece and others of its ilk as click bait, but these pieces continue to get published because they satisfy the cultural narrative that victims are ultimately responsible for their own violation. It's well and good to suggest that predators should avoid predation, that rapists should just stop raping, but no one wants to hear this brand of genuine common sense that places the culpability for sexual violence where it actually belongs. We don't dare imagine such a perfect world.
Instead, we surrender to our cynicism. We continue to remind young women that they should make better decisions, drink less, wear modest clothing, remain chaste, avoid walking alone at night, as if there is some ideal combination of respectable behaviors that will definitively protect women from sexual violence. Why don't we just tell women to avoid going to college while we're at it? The most absurd part of Yoffe's piece is the suggestion that we're "reluctant" to tell young women to stop getting drunk, as if tactics for rape avoidance have not been a constant refrain for young women throughout their lives.
Gay is right that these articles, these excuses we make for rapists, satisfy a cultural narrative. But they do something else: they ensure that that cultural narrative survives. They strengthen it. They make it harder to break it down. It's a cycle, and Yoffe did her part this week to make sure that the cycle keeps on turning. Go read the whole thing.

"The Black Godfather" of Silicon Valley, this programmer helped design HP's first computers.
Born in Kinloch, Missouri. Coming from humble beginnings, Clay learned how to program computer code while earning a degree at Saint Louis University for mathematics in 1956. Back then, there were no university programs tailored for this skill.
Clay was recruited by David Packard (of Hewlett Packard fame) to set up HP's computer development business in 1965 after hearing about how Clay wrote software hat showed how particles of radiation would spread through the atmosphere after an atomic explosion.
Clay led the team that introduced HP's first dip into the computer market with the 2116A computer in 1966. He also wrote the software for the 2116A as well.
He left HP in 1977 to start his own company, ROD-L Electronics, which produced the world's first Safety Certified Hipot and Ground Continuity Testers. They set the standard in electrical product safety testing while partnering with HP, IBM, AT&T, and Xerox.
His contributions also extended into the political arena; Clay was the first African-American Councilman & Vice Mayor of Palo Alto, California in 1973.

Hanna's Fairy Tale is Violent and Grimm
- Friday, April 08, 2011
"Adapt or die" Hanna's father tells her. Apparently that's the code those who have no concept of right and wrong must live by. Even the "normal" characters in the film wouldn't know a moral standard if they tripped over one on their way to the bar.
Sensitive viewers beware: Hanna manages to offend (in a relatively mild way) on an equal opportunity basis. Promiscuity, homosexuality, negative references to religion, sadism, genetic engineering ... all there, but not presented in an "in your face" way. Director Joe Wright (The Soloist, Atonement) calls Hanna "pure entertainment" but he also says of viewers, "I hope it freaks 'em out just a little bit, too."
- Drugs/Alcohol: Characters meet in a bar, alcohol used in social situations.
- Language/Profanity: The d-word, "ho" (playfully).
- Sex/Nudity: Sex implied and discussed but not shown: moaning from inside rocking van, suggested teen sex, kissing between male/female couples and two teen girls (the latter more friendly than sensual); one character described as promiscuous; married couple described as "at it like rabbits"; stripper said to have "both male and female genitalia" shown not quite baring breasts.
- Violence: A reindeer is killed and disemboweled in the opening; threatening situations, intense fighting, and violent death are ever present throughout the film.

January 14, 1943: The Casablanca Conference begins.
Codenamed "SYMBOL", this Allied conference was conducted in a hotel in Casablanca two months after the British-American invasion of French North Africa. Originally intended to be the first meeting of the war between the "Big Three" (Churchill, Roosevelt, and Stalin), the conference ended up settling with the Big Two plus the French - Churchill, Roosevelt, and Charles de Gaulle and Henri Giraud were the only leaders in attendance; the Russian leader was, reportedly, too occupied with his own nation's ongoing efforts to drive out German forces. Notably, in attending the conference, Franklin Roosevelt became the first sitting American president to visit Africa and the first to leave the country during wartime. Among the issues discussed was a plan to invade the "soft underbelly of the Axis" - Italy, which would open up another front on continental Europe and hopefully relieve pressure off the Soviets. Another product of the conference was the Casablanca directive, plans for the bombing of strategic targets in Germany to be launched from Britain.
But by far the single most significant product of this conference was the Casablanca Declaration, which announced to the world that the Allies would accept nothing less from the Axis powers than unconditional surrender, a phrase Roosevelt had lifted from the American Civil War general Ulysses S. Grant. He assured that although this policy would ideally mean the end of the Axis threat forever, it was not aimed at the people of each respective nation but rather "the philosophies in those countries which are based on conquest and the subjugation of other people".
Churchill and Stalin both disapproved of the policy, and it ended up serving as motivation for the Axis powers, now presented with two options by the Allies (total, crushing defeat and victory) to fight even harder. The Allied policy of "unconditional surrender" may have even prolonged the war in this way, and also because it was a useful propaganda tool in Axis countries. Late in the war, the Japanese made this statement, probably representative of many Axis attitudes toward unconditional surrender, to Soviet officials:
...so long as England and the United States insist upon unconditional surrender, the Japanese Empire has no alternative but to fight on with all its strength for the honor and existence of the Motherland.

Home Test for Urinary Tract Infections
You can buy dipstick test kits without a doctor's order (nonprescription) to use at home to check for urinary tract infections (UTIs). Talk to your doctor about using a test kit. Make sure that your doctor knows about any abnormal test results, so that a urinary problem is not missed.
The urinary tract consists of the kidneys, bladder, ureters, and urethra. Urine in the bladder normally is sterile—it does not contain any bacteria or other organisms (such as fungi). But bacteria can enter the urinary tract through the urethra.
Urinary tract infections are more common in women and girls than in men. This may be partly because the female urethra is shorter and closer to the anus, which allows bacteria from the intestines to come into contact more easily with the urethra. Men also have an antibacterial substance in their prostate gland that reduces their risk.
The dipstick test kit contains specially treated plastic strips (dipsticks) that you hold in your urine stream or dip into a sample of your urine. The strips test for a substance (called nitrite) produced by most urinary tract infections. Certain types of strips also test for white blood cells (leukocytes). Some types of dipsticks can test for both nitrite and leukocytes, but most types test for only one or the other. An area on the end of the strip changes color if you have an infection.
Most urinary tract infections can be easily cured with antibiotics. But an untreated infection may spread to the kidneys and cause a more serious problem. If you use a home test kit, make sure that your doctor knows about any abnormal test results, so that a serious problem is not missed.
Why It Is Done
A self-test for urinary tract infections is done under the direction of your doctor to:
- Find a urinary tract infection (UTI), especially in people who have frequent UTIs. Certain conditions increase the risk for having a UTI, such as if you are pregnant, have diabetes, or have a condition that affects urine flow (such as kidney stones, stroke, or spinal cord injury). In adults, a UTI usually causes symptoms such as pain or burning during urination, frequent urination, or the sudden and repeated urge to urinate. But older adults and young children with UTIs may not have these symptoms. For this reason, experts recommend that older adults and children see a doctor for a possible UTI.
- Check how well treatment of a UTI is working. If you are being treated for a UTI, you can test your urine at home to see whether the antibiotics have cured the infection. If you get frequent UTIs, you may be able to test yourself for infection.
- Test young children who have frequent bladder infections but may not be able to report their symptoms. A home test for these children is done under the direction of your doctor.

We're three short days away from the Emmy nominations being announced and speculation is currently through the roof. Variety columnist Brian Lowry recently posted five predictions that he feels are air-tight, and True Detective is mentioned. Although the article is mostly a vague, big-picture piece, Fargo and True Detective are both mentioned for their star power. We're all familiar with the stars involved with both series, but there is obviously more going on their than simple star power. Of series that are expected to be ignored, both Orphan Black and The Walking Dead make an appearance due to their nature as genre shows.
It's sad to see good shows go ignored, but it raises an interesting question: when it comes to an Emmy, is star power really the most that True Detective has to offer? True Detective is not sci-fi or fantasy, though it at times gently flirts with those genres. Beyond that, it is a hard-boiled detective show, which hasn't exactly proven to be hugely popular. It's unfortunately possible that if True Detective didn't at least have Woody Harrelson and Matthew McConaughey in the bag it wouldn't be nominated at all. Do you think there is any truth in that? Or do you believe the story and performances would speak for themselves, regardless of big name actors?

First Michael Vick is not thrilled about being a backup quarterback. Now we learn that he is a bit delusional too.
Maybe it would be best if he stopped talking entirely.
According to Mr. Vick, he was the first running quarterback, the guy that changed the game.
"I was the guy who started it all," the New York Jets quarterback told ESPN.com. "I revolutionized the game. I changed the way it was played in the NFL."
Really, Michael? Are you sure?
Yes, Michael Vick does have the record for quarterback rushing yards with 5,857. Yes, Vick, for a time, was the jersey every kid was wearing, and the player kids tried to model themselves after. Running style quarterbacks all tried to model themselves after Michael Vick.
But, to say that he was the first ever, couldn't be more wrong.
Hey Michael, you were alive to see Randall Cunningham play. He didn't have your numbers, but he did run for 4,928 yards. That's a pretty high number before you ever saw the field, so I guess you didn't "revolutionize" the game.
What about Steve Young? He ran for over 4,200 yards, which again doesn't amount to Vick and his total, but proves it's been done before.
Michael, wake up!
There would also be Fran Tarkenton. Vick was not alive to see him play, so we can't get on him entirely. Well, yes we can, if you know about the game at all, you know who Fran Tarkenton is. He ran for over 3,500 yards from the quarterback position, all before Vick was born.
Revolutionize? Ummm…..no.
How about more recent players like Donovan McNabb? How about Steve McNair? These are all quarterbacks that used their feet as well as they used their arms from the quarterback position.
Was Michael Vick good at running the ball from the quarterback position? Sure, he has the record for being the best. Was he the first? No. Did he revolutionize the position? Absolutely not.
Earth to Michael Vick, come back to us. Come back to us, and stop talking. Especially when you have no idea what you are talking about.

An L293D or other Dual H-Bridge Motor Driver chip will be needed to drive the motors of the RC car. This can be found here: http://www.adafruit.com/products/807
Finally, this project requires the RF transmitter (https://www.sparkfun.com/products/retired/8945) and receiver (ttps://www.sparkfun.com/products/retired/8945) which will used for communication between the Arduinos.
A breadboard to prototype your circuit and a prototype board is also needed to solder everything together in the end. This can be bought from an electronics store like Jaycar Electronics.
Required Knowledge: A basic knowledge of electronics is required for this tutorial. If you have never worked with electronics take a look at this tutorial (at least up to lesson 4): http://www.ladyada.net/learn/arduino/
Knowing how to solder will also help with the final steps: https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/how-to-solder...
This tutorial also assumes that you have a basic knowledge of the Arduino Uno and know how to program and upload a basic sketch. For the basics of Arduino, check out the Adafruit Arduino basics lessons at: http://learn.adafruit.com/lesson-0-getting-started/the-lessons.
A basic knowledge of Java is also assumed. You should know how to set up Java on your computer and create a basic Java program. This tutorial uses the Eclipse IDE. For the basics of programming Java and using Eclipse, check out this tutorial: http://eclipsetutorial.sourceforge.net/totalbeginner.html
Tutorial Structure: This tutorial will be split up into 3 parts:
- Sending Arduino
- Recieving Arduino
- Computer program
This will teach you the basics of programming for the Arduino. It works on the Leonardo!
To upload the program to the Arduino use the Arduino IDE here: http://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software
hey it worked.THANKS!
i have problem with reaction time, this program is taking long time to respond to the keys pressed
how can i reduce the response time in the program.
Yeah same here, I just got done with it today and the reaction time takes a while. Did you figure out a way to reduce the reaction time?
I press backward but i didn't receive anything on second arduino..
Can someone make this program and send me??
it is giving a warning during run time in console as:
WARNING: RXTX Version mismatch
Jar version = RXTX-2.2-20081207 Cloudhopper Build rxtx.cloudhopper.net
native lib Version = RXTX-2.2pre2
how to resolve this??
the power led of receiver end arduino does not turns on even after all the connections shown in your figure
is there any connection missing or do i need to connect an adapter
please reply ASAP
Thank You
ok nw i got it
thanks for your quick reply
can i drive two 12 volts (0.4amp 200 rpm 4 kg torque) geared dc motors with this circuit?? or do i need to make some changes?
hey it worked.THANKS!
but this program is taking long time to respond to the keys pressed
how can i reduce the response time in the program.
I think my java program is taking more time to transmit the character from pc because my circuitry is working perfectly
trying to crate working jar file :D But with my knowledge and experience with java it's taking time :D
What are you actually doing with it ?

Great tool. Bought it to help drill through brick. Put it on the hammer setting and it went into the brick like butter. While some say that Craftsman's quality has gone down over the years, I have never had a problem with a craftsman product. Awesome product at a great price.

Drill showed promise, nice features, and quite powerful. Unfortunately the chuck does not hold a bigger 1/2 inch bit tight. Very frustrating, counting on it and it held up a days work. Hope it is a flaw with just this one drill, plan to have Sears replace it... Why is Sears having higher end stuff made in China???

The second,third and fourth,a little more smoke.Stoppe using it and let it cool.Three holes later it is TOASTED!Plume of smoke,sizzling sounds,and a few sparks finished it off.I had to use my cordless 19.2v cordless to finish(which has crappy batteries that wont stay charged).Fixing to switch over to Bosch or Milwaukee.I will be verty surprised if Crapsman lets this get posted.Don't mean to be a Debby Downer but this drill is JUNK.

My top ten posts this year:
1. Feederism 101 has been my top post since I wrote it, and it's still on page two of Google's results for "feederism". I'm both pleased at its success and embarrassed at its flaws—I could write a much more complete picture of what feederism is now.
2. Help Sarah Dopp Create A Genderplayful Marketplace! This and other posts helped this project reach it's funding goals a full three weeks early!
3. Piss Play: How did such a short post become so popular? This is the only time I mention piss on this blog, though it's far from the only time I've ever pissed on someone.
4. For some reason, a hell of a lot of you liked this photo.
5. Stuffed, or, How To Have Feederism Sex Without The Feedee: my first expereince with getting what I really want in bed.
6. Feederism Freaks Out Fat Acceptance Bloggers: my rebuttal towards the fat acceptance movement's view of feederists as abusive or scary. I started no online wars, but I don't feel I started a conversation either.
7. Marked: a sweet story about getting a hickey.
8. My top 12 turn-ons: I was surprised at how many views this got. Apparently a lot of people liked it who weren't even pervs!
9. This photo also proved popular.
10. What my ideal feedee is like: my ideals have changed a lot since I wrote this.
Apparently 380 of you looked at my Ask Box, but only around 10 of you actually asked me questions. The search term that brings all the boys to my yard is "feederism", closely followed by "feederism dating" and "molly ren". Weirdest place I got traffic from: the Encyclopedia Dramatica article on fat furries.

Edit: I wrote this prior to last night's game, a game in which Uggla mashed 2 HR, drove in 5 runs, drew a walk, and made 2 spectacular plays in the field. So basically every single aspect of his game that I criticize below, he tried his best to prove me wrong…. in one game. Tip of the hat to you Uggla! Out of respect to the larger sample, being last year's results and the 2 weeks of the season prior to last night, I will post this knowing that I could draw some critics after last night's turnaround.
Prelude: I like Dan Uggla. He seems to be a genuinely hard-working, good guy. He hustles every single play, rarely throws temper tantrums if a call doesn't go his way, gives his time to charity, and seems truly loved by his teammates. It's not with pleasure that I write the piece below, but with the harsh reality that is the aging process.
Is Uggla's tenure with the Braves coming to an end?
There were great signs from Dan Uggla this spring, but 2 weeks into the season and Uggla's numbers have actually been worse than his 2013 numbers. His power has been all but non-existent with only 2 extra base hits and 0 home runs. Fangraphs has his performance this year at a -0.2 WAR. That means that Uggla's performance thus far has been worth less than an average replacement. Seeing as though the Braves have 2 above average replacements in Ramiro Pena and Tyler Pastornicky at the big league level and Tommy La Stella at AAA, how long do the Braves give Uggla to right the ship? I was hopeful that Uggla would turn it around, but here are some reasons why I think Uggla might be done:
1. BABIP- Uggla's batting average on balls in play this year is actually higher than what it was last year, therefore the unlucky card can't be played, especially when comparing this year to last.
2. Power- The last skill that kept Dan from being a below-level replacement player was his power, of which looks to have diminished.
3. K-rate- Sometimes players can sacrifice power for contact. Unfortunately, that doesn't seem to be the case for Uggla. He's still striking out more than 1 time every 4 plate appearances.
4. Plummeting walk rate- Uggla has always been able to take a walk, but this year his BB rate is 2.3%, dropping 9% from his career. The pitchers might have figured out that Dan just can't make consistent contact and therefore they're feeding him strikes at a high dose. If I were a pitcher, I sure would.
5. A .471 OPS. There's no luck, no defense, and no amount of money that can hide a .471 OPS.
I have a feeling that the Braves won't wait too long to pull the plug on Uggla this year. There are plenty of options for 2nd base that can provide positive value. Watch Uggla's numbers closely over the next few weeks. If there's not significant improvement by the end of May, I think we'll see a drastic change.
Updated numbers after last night's game:
According to Fangraphs, Dan's game last night provided 0.2 WAR, making his value thus far back to nil (it was -0.2). He also raised his OPS almost .200 points to .665. By no means are these numbers respectable yet, but it goes without saying that Danny-boy has earned a little slack on the proverbial leash with last night's performance.

Nate's new neck art
|05.27.10 at 11:14 pm ET
Nate Robinson has been relatively quiet for most of the postseason, but he drew attention during Game 5, and it wasn't just because of his basketball.
Robinson scored five points, grabbed a rebound, a steal, and even blocked Dwight Howard in nine minutes, his most playing time since May 7.
During the game, Yahoo! Sports spotted a new tattoo on Robinson … on his neck. The tattoo resembles the Bentley logo, with the number "8" in the center in place of the letter "B."
Yahoo! noted Robinson tweeted about getting a new tattoo prior to Game 4. Click here for further explanation of the design and a photo of the ink.

Honestly, we're not really sure. We do love it and have devoted an entire photo gallery to why more people should be watching it, but thought that maybe it wasn't going to be as good as it has clearly been. On the bright side, we fully intend of recapping it next season.

Lido Beach makes national 'best of' list
Date: May 18, 2009
by: Robin Roy | City Editor
A national group is recognizing Lido Beach as one of the country's best-restored beaches.
The American Shore and Beach Preservation Association just announced Lido's inclusion on the list.
"We are honored our preservation and enhancement efforts at Lido Beach have been recognized as some of the best in the nation," said Mayor Dick Clapp.
A two-month beach renourishment project that concluded last month pumped more than 600,000 tons of sand from Big Pass onto Lido Key, creating a beach that is up to 200 yards wider than it had been.
The $4.6 million project was funded by federal and state grants and county tourist tax dollars.

Thanks Pete. It would be nice to win but I'm just grateful to be in the final 12
Thanks Lee. You have done well. This is my 2nd attempt, I entered 2 years ago and very nearly didn't this year but my children were really excited about it..... You saying you were Gob Smacked, I thought it was a hoax and when I realised it wasn't, I thought I misheard and had to ask for confirmation. I felt a right wally.
Lee and Coral, don't worry about anything you ask them in the program office. I think over the years they must get used to the stupid questions. I certainly thought it was a wind up when they first contacted me last year.
And if you heard the stuff I was asking about to finalise going to Birmingham for the initial sift, parking, accomodation, etc., etc., well... So believe me they've heard it all before.
ps. I preferred Nigel's version
Congratulations to both of you and others who may well be ephotozine members. I know the water vole picture is by fishing and I did put her in touch with the project when we met by chance so I feel very pleased for her.
Well done all epz contestants, a grand achievement from so many entrants.

A 'do nothing congress" – Thank God.
Congress has been criticized for not passing many laws last year – as if that's bad.
No, not passing more onerous laws is good. We already have too many well-intentioned laws that inhibit economic growth, discourage innovation and limit our freedom.
Simplifying overly complex laws (such as our tax code) and getting rid of some bad laws (such as Obamacare or Dodd-Frank) would be even better.
That would be a Congress I would support.

Great Plains wheat has snow, but what is underneath?
In South Dakota the Crop Progress and Condition report indicates lesser amounts of snowfall than in states to the south, with the western part of South Dakota receiving only a fraction of an inch of precipitation during February and over two inches of water equivalent in the eastern portion of the state. Soil moisture was not reported. However snow cover for winter wheat was reported at 56 percent poor, 42 percent adequate and 2 percent excellent. Winter wheat condition was rated at 20 percent very poor, 46 percent poor, 31 percent fair, and 3 percent good.
Most of the US winter wheat crop is within drought territory, but February snow falls, some of them intense, have left 2-3 inches of water equivalent in areas where drought-damaged wheat remains in dormancy. Most wheat condition reports indicate that significant portions are in poor to very poor condition. What lies under the snow, should it provide needed moisture, will remain uncertain until it melts.

Does the moisture count if crop never came up and seed has been blown into the next state? I scout 6 counties as of now yields will be down 30 to 40 % over last year. When nothing has emerged or emerged then died hard to gain back bushels.

I solved this issue. Might someone els find this thread helpful.
Since it worked in safe mode and not in normal mode , there must be something perventing it from this.
in MSconfig , I unchecked all startup , and all services , except Microsoft services , System point was working fine then, I enabled few services and startup till I found the software causing this issue , it was graphic tweaking tool that comes with graphic card driver (Zotac fire storm ) I unistalled it , but it wasn't enough , I had to remove the startup entry manualy , now system working perfectly .
I hope this methode helps people that suffering from smiliar issue .
Note : If it fail to create restore point in safe mode , probably system file is damaged , and the above might not work.

Vidient Systems Expands Board of Directors with EDS Industry Leader
Video surveillance software company adds industry expertise with addition of former InVision CEO Dr. Sergio Magistri
SUNNYVALE, Calif. -- Vidient Systems, Inc., a developer of behavior recognition software that makes video surveillance cameras (CCTV) more accurate and cost effective, today announced that Dr. Sergio Magistri has been appointed to the Vidient Systems board of directors. From 1992 until 2004 Dr. Magistri was the president and CEO of InVision Technologies, Inc., the leading supplier of explosive detection systems (EDS) used to screen checked luggage in major airports around the world.
Having recently announced expanded capabilities for its Vidient SmartCatch 2.5 flagship product, which is now in use at several international airports including those in San Francisco, San Diego and Salt Lake City, and was recently selected for use at the Tallahassee Regional Airport, Vidient Systems is in a period of strategic growth and is expanding its board of directors. Dr. Magistri will contribute broad insight into establishing leadership in the global aviation industry with new security technologies.
"Much remains to be done to address the security needs of corporate and government facilities and major transportation hubs around the world," said Dr. Magistri. "Vidient is uniquely positioned to play a leadership role as it continues to develop increasingly advanced video solutions that address pressing security concerns today and well into the future."
Dr. Magistri brings to the Vidient board 20 years of experience in technology management and development. He also brings more than a decade of insight into the civil aviation market and experience working with the associated US and international regulatory agencies including the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) and the Homeland Security Department (HSD).
"Dr. Magistri has tremendous technical, operational and regulatory experience in government and transportation markets," said Brooks McChesney, founder, CEO and president of Vidient Systems, Inc. "His insight will be invaluable as we continue to expand our global presence and enhance our SmartCatch platform to meet today's most demanding and complex security environments."
Dr. Magistri was president and CEO of InVision Technologies for 12 years, from startup, through IPO, to its acquisition by General Electronic Company in 2004. His in-depth expertise in security technology for civil aviation environments includes his leadership of InVision when it received its first FAA certification for its EDS product in 1994. In addition, Dr. Magistri led InVision through a massive ramp-up to support the 2001 Aviation Improvement Act which mandated the screening of checked baggage for all commercial air travel.
Dr. Magistri's management experience includes guiding InVision from a staff of 20 researchers when he joined the company in 1992 to more than 1,000 employees worldwide in 2004. In addition to his expertise in EDS, Dr. Magistri has extensive experience in high-precision tooling equipment and medical imaging. Additionally, in 2001, Dr. Magistri served on the Silicon Valley Blue Ribbon Task Force on Aviation Security, was named 2003 National Entrepreneur of the Year in the Defense and Security Category by Ernst & Young and he holds a diploma in electrical engineering and a doctorate in biomedical engineering, both from the Swiss Institute of Technology in Zurich.

Blessed Feast!
If you have time, please click on this link through and read what Fr. Damick has to say. It's really good.
This morning, for some odd reason I can't quite recall, I was thinking about this sort of thing.
The Parable of the Publican and the Pharisee confronts us with a stark contrast between religious pride and self-righteousness on the one hand, and heartfelt humility and repentance on the other hand. The pharisee, of course, is the one who manifests pride, and it is the publican who manifests humility. The Lord closes this short parable by declaring the Pharisee âcondemnedâ and the publican âjustified.â This is a genuine âreversal of fortune,â upending our preconceived notions of piety and righteousness as forcefully as it must have struck those who initially heard the parable as delivered by the Lord. Yet, that reversal of fortune should not obscure other notable factors also working within this parable. Christ is not condemning the actions of the pharisee. The Lord is not telling us through this parable that the pharisee â or anyone else, and that includes us â is wasting both time and energy by going up to the temple to pray, by fasting and by tithing. These are not being condemned as empty practices, consigning all such practitioners to the barren realm of hypocrisy and religious formalism. We, as contemporary Christians, are encouraged to enter the church with regularity and offer our prayer to God, to practice the self restraint and discipline of fasting, and to share our financial resources with the generosity implied by the biblical tithe. We could add other practices to that. In fact, we would do well to imitate the outward actions of the pharisee in…

Wayne, WV: Faithful gather to Commence Annual Pilgrimage at Holy Cross Monastery
On Saturday, September 28, the Administrator of the Chicago & Mid-American Diocese, His Grace Peter, Bishop of Cleveland, paid an inaugural visit to Holy Cross Monastery in Wayne, WV, and led the divine services at the monastery's annual pilgrimage. The monastery's abbot, His Grace, Eastern American Diocesan vicar Bishop George of Mayfield, greeted his distinguished guest. Also present at the pilgrimage was the myrrh-streaming Hawaiian Icon of the Mother of God.
After lunch, in accordance with monastery tradition, a procession and moleben to the Holy Great Martyr and Healer Panteleimon began in the monastery's main church and proceeded to the outdoor chapel. Bishop George led the moleben, co-served by diocesan, monastery, and local clergy.
At 4:00 PM, a bountiful dinner was offered by the brethren for all the pilgrims, and at 6:00 PM Bishop Peter led the All-Night Vigil. Throughout the service, the many faithful confessed their sins, a fact made possible by the presence of many priests, who came to share in the joy of the pilgrimage.
On August 30, 2013, His Beatitude, Metropolitan Tikhon and the members of the Holy Synod of Bishops of the Orthodox Church in America, issued a statement calling for prayers for all who are suffering in the crisis currently gripping Egypt, and especially that nation's minority Christian community.
The complete text follows.
Concerning the Conflict in Egypt and its Christian community
It is with deep concern that we have witnessed the mounting difficulties and sorrows suffered by Christians and non-Christians alike across the Middle East, and especially in Egypt and Syria. Of special concern is the plight of the Coptic community in Egypt. The situation in that land is indeed a complex one—one for which we offer prayers on behalf of all people of good will, Christian and non-Christian alike, that the ongoing conflict will soon end in a peaceful resolution. Nevertheless, in mid-August we witnessed disturbing images and reports of the burning and destruction of dozens of Coptic churches across Egypt, together with attacks on the faithful and their homes, families and businesses. While this is not the first time Egypt's Christians have had to endure such pain, the magnitude of the recent attacks is unprecedented.
The Church, from apostolic times, has endured suffering and persecution. "Blessed are you when men shall revile you and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely for my sake," our Lord reveals in Matthew 5:11. Since the time of Cain and Abel, the nature of this fallen world has pitted brother against brother. However, we have been called to look beyond this fallen world and to set our sight on the Kingdom of the Prince of Peace. In this manner, we will fulfill the prayer offered by our Lord on the eve of His life-creating death, "that they all may be one; as Thou, Father, art in me, and I in Thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that Thou hast sent me" [John 17:21].
It is in this spirit that we call upon the faithful to beseech our Lord to grant peace to our Coptic brothers and sisters in the midst of their trials—and to all Egyptians of good will, in search of that "Peace which passes all understanding" [Philippians 4:7]. May the promise of the Kingdom remain before them as they continue to witness to Jesus Christ in circumstances that, for us, are unimaginable. May we speak up in their defense through whatever means are at our disposal. And may those who have lost their lives in the conflict be granted eternal rest with the saints, in the bosom of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
"Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Spirit" [Romans 15:13].
Again we pray for those who are being persecuted for their faith, especially the Christian faithful of Egypt and across the Middle East, that the Lord God will send down upon them every spiritual weapon to endure their tribulations; and that He will grant that Peace which passes all understanding upon the region, and throughout the whole world, as a foretaste of His heavenly Kingdom.

KENTUCKY: Parish celebrates groundbreaking Over 150 people gathered for the groundbreaking ceremony at&
That's my parish!
Over 150 people gathered for the groundbreaking ceremony at Saint Athanasius Church's recently acquired property in Nicholasville, KY.
"This event has been a long time in coming," said Priest Justin Patterson, Pastor. "For the past 11 years, since its founding as a mission of the Orthodox Church in America, Saint Athanasius' faithful have met in a shopping center storefront. Our new location has been effective in helping us grow from those early days, although we always understood that at some point, we would need to procure our own facility to continue and expand the work we are already doing and hope to do in the future. Part of the Orthodox Christian faith is developing a physical space that tells everybody, 'Here we are; this is the Church.'"
His Grace, Bishop Mark of Baltimore presided at the service. In his remarks, he challenged the faithful "not to be too enamored with the work of their hands. Never forget that the Church is not stones and mortar. The Church is made of the People of God." He concluded by encouraging the faithful to be "living stones" of the Church in Nicholasville.
Faithful from neighboring Orthodox parishes joined the celebration, including Priest George Wilson of Panagia Pantovasilissa Greek Orthodox Church, Priest Thomas Gallaway of Saint Andrew Antiochian Orthodox Church, and Deacon Jeremiah Davis of West Virginia's Holy Cross Monastery [ROCOR] also served at the ceremony. State and local officials congratulated the faithful.
The service ended with the burning of the property's mortgage, which had been paid in full.
"Our people worked hard to pay off that debt, to save for building the church, and to engage a good architect," Father Justin said. "The building committee and parish council worked with Lexington architect Tom Smith, a Greek Orthodox Christian, to develop cost-effective plans that could be implemented in phases to meet the parish's growth needs for the next 25 years.
"The first phase of construction consists of an 8,000 square foot building with a walk-out basement," explained Father Justin. "Final general contractor selection will take place in September. The second phase will include the formal temple and renovation of the first phase construction to serve as a parish hall and education facility. Construction on the first phase is expected to begin in early October 2013.
Groundbreaking photos and building project updates may found on the parish's web site.

Holy Trinity Russian Orthodox Cathedral ( Chicago, Illinois, USA)
Holy Trinity Orthodox Cathedral is the cathedral church of the Orthodox Church in America Diocese of the Midwest. It is one of only two churches designed by Louis Sullivan, one of the seminal architects of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It is listed on the US National Register of Historic Places and is designated a Chicago Landmark.
The church was commissioned by the growing Russian congregation of Chicago, Illinois, and stands within the neighborhood known today as Ukrainian Village. It remains one of only two Orthodox churches servicing the Orthodox-Christian community in Ukrainian Village. Construction work, partly financed by a personal donation of $4,000 from TsarSt. Nicholas II of Russia, lasted from 1899 to 1903. The church retains many features of Russian provincial architecture, including an octagonal dome and a frontal belltower. It is believed that the emigrants wished the church to be "remindful of the small, intimate, rural buildings they left behind in the Old World".
The Holy Trinity Orthodox Cathedral is governed by The Orthodox Church in America

Turning our parish into a jungle for Pentecost!
Do any of our followers happen to speak Spanish? I will be in Guatemala briefly and would like to know some words related to orthodoxy in the Spanish language in case I get to attend a service there. God Bless all and let us keep the fast!
Often one hears from converts after some years of seemingly unfruitful struggles that 'I didnt know what I was getting into when I became Orthodox.' Some sense this when they are first exposed to the Orthodox Faith, and this can cause them to postpone their encounter with Orthodoxy or even…

Cape Cod National Seashore to Host Morning of Fire - Daring American Odyssey in the Pacific of John Kendrick
Contact: Sue Haley, South District Interpreter, 508-255-3421
Four years after the Revolutionary War, America's independence was still in doubt. To survive, the new nation needed money and a vital surge in trade. In the back rooms of Boston, a daring plan was launched by a group of merchants and ship owners: to send two ships on a desperate mission around Cape Horn and up the Pacific Coast and beyond.
Thus is the setting for this meticulously researched adventure story "Morning of Fire: John Kendrick's Daring American Odyssey in the Pacific"by Cape Cod authorScott Ridley. Come listen to Ridley's presentation about this unique tale on Sunday, October 2, at 2:00 PM, at the Seashore's Salt Pond Visitor Center Auditorium in Eastham, followed by a book signing.
Ridley's story uncovers the full scope of a landmark American voyage that came at the volatile close of the eighteenth century, a time when superpowers Spain and Britain clashed over territory and the fledgling United States stood caught in the middle. As Ridley relates Kendrick's fateful struggle to plant the seed of an "empire of liberty" in the Pacific, he shapes a bold and exciting chronicle of a momentous odyssey.
Scott Ridley is also the co-author of the book Power Struggle: The Hundred-Year War over Electricity, and is a policy analyst who has written for the New Republic, The Nation, Newsday, The Denver Post, and a host of other publications. Descended from a long line of New England sailors and shipbuilders, Scott Ridley has studied and collected books and artifacts on maritime life for forty years. He lives with his family in East Harwich, Massachusetts.
If you go: Salt Pond Visitor Center is located at the intersection of Route 6 and Nauset Road in Eastham and is open daily from 9:00 AM to 5 PM.The center includes a lobby with expansive views of Salt Pond, Nauset Marsh, and the Atlantic; a museum featuring the park's natural and cultural stories; staff to assist with trip planning, and a store with books, maps, puzzles, games, t-shirts, and 50th anniversary commemorative items. There are short films shown throughout the day. The Buttonbush and Nauset Marsh Trails, and the Nauset Bike Trail are located nearby. For more information on Cape Cod National Seashore programs, check the park's website, www.nps.gov/caco.

The all-electric Fold is normally eight feet long, already smaller than a SmartCar. But it folds up to a mere five feet long for parking, about the size of a shopping cart.
The Onion shares a really innovative green breakthrough: The Prius Solution kills you with a spike as soon as you get in.
There are plenty of EV models to choose from these days, which makes for a complicated decision. Here's a table with basic stats on the major electric and plug-in hybrid cars.
Electric cars are a modern new technology, so modern and unproven that many [Republicans] would say they couldn't possibly be plausible. Except for how they've actually been around since the turn of the 20th century. This photo of an electric car charging (above, click to embiggen) is from 1909, and by that point the technology was already 15 years old.
In England, when you want to say that a guy or a gal is h-o-t-t HOT, you say "He/she is FIT!" And that is what we want to say about the 2013 Honda Fit EV. The Fit is FIT. F-i-t-t FIT! This car — this car! — according to the EPA, gets the fuel efficiency equivalent if 118 miles per gallon. Wow. As an electric vehicle (EV), the car does not use fuel, so one might also say that it gets 29 kilowatt-hours per 100 miles. That's better than the Ford Focus Electric, the Mitsubishi i-MiEV, and the Nissan Leaf, …
It's time to retire the trusty Roberts family minivan. What should replace it? A Prius v? The Ford C-Max hybrid?
Electric vehicles are great and all, but they're not exactly practical for everyone. Like, how's a farmer in rural China going to a) afford a pricey green car and b) get enough access to electrical outlets and vehicle charging stations? Well, if he's Tang Zhengping from Beijing's Tangzhou Wanji Yongle Town, he'll build his own – and it'll be AWESOME.
It goes 200 miles on a third as much battery power as an electric car. It has airbags and an enclosed cockpit. It's gyroscopically stabilized, like a Segway. It could be the future of transportation.
We've devised the world's shortest survey to find out what kind of actions our readers are taking. You know you want to.

The tour includes Test matches against France, Italy and Ireland as well as two midweek matches, against English Premiership teams Leicester and Saracens.
The touring squad also includes five players who have been recalled while the balance of 23 players is the bulk of the squad that won the 2009 Tri-Nations tournament.
The newcomers to the Springbok squad are Blue Bulls scrumhalf Heini Adams, Western Province centre Juan de Jongh, Sharks lock Alistair Hargreaves, Blue Bulls utility back Francois Hougaard, Cheetahs eighthman Ashley Johnson, Blue Bulls hooker Bandise Maku, Blue Bulls flank Dewald Potgieter, who captained the Emerging Springboks against the British & Irish Lions in June, Griquas flank Davon Raubenheimer and Griquas fullback Riaan Viljoen.
Those who have been recalled are Blue Bulls fullback Zane Kirchner and Cheetahs wing Jongi Nokwe, who both played in the third Test against the British & Irish Lions in July but were excluded from the Tri-Nations squad, Cheetahs centre Meyer Bosman, who was in the SA XV that faced Namibia in May and last played a Test in 2006, Lions fullback Earl Rose, who toured Europe in 2008 and also featured in the Namibia match, and Lions prop Heinke van der Merwe, who played one Test match in 2007.
Western Province lock Andries Bekker and Sharks wing JP Pietersen, who were injured during the Tri-Nations away leg, both return to the squad. The five players who are not included from the group of 28 that did duty during the Tri-Nations are Vodacom Cheetahs flank Juan Smith, who was not considered due to injury, Western Province scrumhalf Ricky Januarie, who was not considered, Jean de Villiers and Frans Steyn, who are playing for clubs in Ireland and France respectively, and Sharks lock Johann Muller, who was called to replace the injured Bekker towards the end of the Tri-Nations away campaign.
Commenting on the selection, Springbok coach Peter de Villiers said: "We will go on tour with a strong core of players who have reached great heights this season, but we are under no illusions about the challenges we face.
"We have three tough Test matches -- France beat the All Blacks in New Zealand earlier this year and are always tough opponents at home, Italy were competitive away from home against the All Blacks and the Wallabies, whilst Ireland are the reigning Six Nations champions.
"We do, however, have a fairly settled Test team that boasts a significant number of caps and is well experienced with some very cool heads. But, what we have achieved so far will have little bearing and we will be starting from scratch as we try to put the seal on a very successful season".
De Villiers added that the nine newcomers to the squad had been recognized for their performances during the 2009 Absa Currie Cup.
"All of them put their hands up during the Currie Cup," he said. "There are others who may consider themselves unlucky not to have made it but it's an indication of our depth that we were forced to leave some very good players at home.
"We will use this tour to expose the new players to our team dynamic and culture as well as to allow them an opportunity to play at a higher level and perhaps even challenge for a place in the test 22".
De Villiers said the five-match tour would also allow him the opportunity to assess various players, particularly at inside centre and fullback in the wake of the departure of Jean de Villiers and Frans Steyn.
"There are a host of players who are capable of challenging for these two positions, but at the same time we will continue to reassess ourselves in all positions to ensure that we are strong in every aspect of the game," de Villiers said.
The squad of 37 will assemble in Johannesburg on Monday, November 2, with the Springbok team for the midweek matches departing for the UK on Tuesday, November 3. The remaining players will remain in South Africa and depart for France on Tuesday, November 10.

Playing with my new shiny Slackware 3.5 box I have noticed
something unusual. The in.pop3d daemon creates sometimes locks for some
mailboxes in /usr/tmp/.pop. The directory is drwxrwxrwt so there will be
no problem in creating nice links to /zImage, /vmlinuz, /etc/shadow or
whatever comes in your head. Be creative.
Thank God there are still temporary directories.
Please notify the authors, I still don't know their email and I
apologize for that.

Someone who is pissy about everything, and can easily make fun of others but takes getting made fun of too seriously.
Nick Skog is a uptight son of a bitch, that poser always makes fun of Aaron, but when Aaron called Nick a pair of horse testicles, Nick went fuckin' crazy.

Someone who has a very serious demeanor.

Behaving in a cold or unforgiving way due to angst, a hangup or some bogus morality or propriety.
1. He got up tight about me smoochin' with his woman and sulked about it until the wine smoothed things out and we decided the bitch wasn't worth the trouble.
2. The pigs were really up tight about their missing squad car, but Jimmy was no snitch.
