It's finally happening! Light snow fell overnight and the morning skies were blue, without anything moving up high. We packed up our camp, left a cache of extras, and went for round two on the fixed lines. With sunny skies and calm winds, we got the experience the air under our feet that comes with climbing the West Buttress. Exhilarating! 6.5 hours of climbing brought us to 17,200' where we had to build camp in the thin air. With tents up and walls built, we're tucking in for the night with the hope of going to the summit of Denali tomorrow.

Our stint at 14,200' has started to stretch for a bit, but we think we see the light at the end of the tunnel. Winds are forecast to drop starting Tuesday, and that looks to be the start of our window. We'll look at moving up tomorrow, depending on winds, but if not, one more rest day won't hurt before our big push. In the mean time, we've been keeping ourselves entertained by brushing up and sharpening our crevasse rescue skills, and today our avalanche rescue skills. Fourteen Camp on Denali provides a stunning backdrop for a classroom! While we've steadily improved our compound here into a quite comfortable home, we won't be sad to put it in our rear view. We'll let you know what tomorrow brings.

You can do it! I'm sending you all beautiful warm weather from where I am right now, Croatia!

So glad to hear that you are perfecting your skills for the last push. It terrifies me to think of what you might do tomorrow in order to reach your goal - crevasse, avalanche, rescue - these are scary words. Be safe and know that you've accomplished a great deal already.

We woke with a sigh of relief to blue bird skies and calm conditions, though the winds up above were clearly stirring up a magic potion. With the morning came just a little heat to help us continue drying out after the storm. We had a strange desire for breakfast burritos this morning so we acted upon the urge. Given the continued strong winds up high we "just got to be" as life at 14 Camp continues. Numerous other teams took the elevator up the fixed lines to cache in hopes of taking advantage of the potential coming weather window these modern times and technology allow us to anticipate. We'd like to thank Rob Young, Sr. and Katie Van Deventer for being our personal forecasters. With views straight to the summit from where we sit, we're staring at the gold on the ceiling patiently waiting for our time to climb.
Until then, give your heart away.

You've been so patient and it has to be so frustrating to see the prize just a short distance away! If it's in the cards, you'll summit. If not, better safe than sorry.
Justin, I filled Father Daniel in. He's praying for your safety and your success.

You guys are SOOO close ... stretch out that food as long as you can! Justin, I'm all set for my travel arrangements, so take your time on the mountain (but stay safe and warm). I'll be waiting for you in Anchorage when you get there!!!!

'The Great One' once again showed her might. Another night of hammering winds kept us from deep sleep. Despite unrelenting gales, Denali Storm Evans finally gifted us with sunny skies this morning. Today was a day to lick our wounds, repair and fortify camp, and dry our clothes; wet from the rigors of battling the passing storm. It was a day to be grateful for the sun.
Cinnamon Toast Crunch provided a dose of childhood nostalgia, followed up by Pete's world famous power dinner; quinoa, lentils, squash, beans, and mustard. Our bodies and our minds still await our chance to experience the upper slopes of this great mountain. With mother nature's cooperation, we're hopeful this shall soon come to fruition.
Until then, Namaste.
Ditto what Leanne said ... we are all anxiously awaiting what's next for you all and the news can't come soon enough. Nine days at Camp 3. Is that a record? I know you are doing your best to keep your spirits up together and give it all you've got. Justin, can I promise you a foot rub for all your efforts? Hopefully that gives you just a little more stamina ...
Posted by: Patrice La Vigne on 5/28/2016 at 2:24 pm
Oh, the simple pleasures of life - sunshine, dry clothes, deep sleep. I hope all these things stay with you until you reach your goal and return home safely. Your friends in the lower half have been praying nonstop for your safety and health.
These blog posts are like letters from heaven. Thanks for keeping us informed. It's our lifeline.

Tonight's dispatch will be short courtesy of Storm Evans.
Everyone is doing well but very occupied with shoveling out our tents every 45 minutes as the 60mph wind that is ripping through camp fills everything back in with spindrift. Not the most pleasant day, and we certainly didn't even entertain the thought of going anywhere. Hopefully the winds give us a reprieve and let us get some sleep tonight. We'll touch base tomorrow.

The morning sun never showed at all, rather than views of "The Great One," all we saw was the inside of a ping pong ball.
Blowing snow and midday brunch, spinach and egg burritos took us well past lunch.
Life at 14 is cut and dry, we've prepped, we've cached, and we're ready to fly.
Our eyes are fixed on the buttress above, we were surprised this evening by a tent dwelling dove.
Coming high pressure may not be our best friend, but at least we'll have some views again.
Toasted pop tarts keep our spirits light, we hope the summit is soon in our sights.

For the first time in several days, the skies were clear above and below us this morning. With those clear skies came COLD temps. We let the sun warm the tents and us, and then set our sights on the fixed lines for a light carry of personal gear. The sun kept it warm while we moved, but the temps stayed cold and we kept the breaks short as they quickly turned chilly. Our group moved really well, and with no other traffic around, we were quickly at the top of the lines, sitting on the West Buttress proper. Our later departure, and light but cold winds convinced us to cache our loads there, and head back down. As has been the recent pattern, as we descended the winds above built, and soon evidence of strong winds was showing on the summit, and moving down to the Buttress as well. We were happy to be back in camp relaxing. The next weather system is forecasted to come in tonight and tomorrow, so we'll enjoy the comfort of our tents. At this point, we are watching for our window and are perfectly set up to go for the summit when the opportunity presents. That might mean a touch more waiting, but we are ok with that.
Best from 14,

Impressive feat to summit West Buttress during a break in the weather. Patrice tells me that Thursday through Sunday will bring favorable weather; so, maybe you'll make good progress toward your goal of summiting. I am hoping and praying that you are successful because it's occurred to me that another climb up Denali might be in your future if you don't succeed this time. I couldn't take the anxiety again.
Upwards and onwards!

Fully prepared for Denali Storm Daryl overnight, we were pleasantly surprised to enjoy a quiet night and an even more beautiful morning. While cold and calm here at 14 Camp this morning, the upper mountain continued to impress with strong winds and an impressive lenticular cloud covering the summit. Our sights turned from climbing and caching, to rest and rejuvenation. We said goodbye to our friends Mike Walter and crew as they began their long descent back to civilization, and headed out to the famous "Edge of the World," a must see for any climber lucky enough to call 14 camp home. The views were 'out of this world,' as always, looking out over the cloud-filled lower Kahiltna Glacier, 7,000' below. Quesadilla Supremes nourished our rested bodies this evening before the setting sun coaxed us back into the warmth of our tents. Tomorrow, our waiting game continues as we look toward a weather window that will allow us entrance to the upper slopes of the tallest mountain in North America.
Goodnight from RMI Guides Robby Young, Pete Van Deventer, and Jess Matthews and team.

We climbed out of the tents this morning hopeful that we would head uphill to cache. Though there was a cap on the summit, the ridge of the West Buttress looked doable. As we fired the stoves though that situation began to change as the cap lowered and the winds over the Buttress picked up. By the end of breakfast we had changed our minds and decided to stay put. That was further reinforced when a climbing ranger stopped by to let us know that NOAA had called with a special weather advisory with high winds and snow. The rangers have taken to naming the storms; this one is Denali storm Daryl. We spent the day resting and hibernating in tents, though so far Daryl has been pretty gentle with us. Tomorrow sounds like it will be another rest day, but if we wake up to something unexpected, we'll rally and get our cache in.
Fra Tomas: Gratulerer med dagen Sinnekka! Jeg elsker deg, din Tomas.

Though there was a cap on the upper mountain when we woke, that wasn't the direction of our concern. The snow and winds had abated, and down towards Windy Corner, the sun was shining through thin clouds, setting everything to sparkling. After another great brunch, we grabbed our packs and feeling light as feathers, cruised downhill to our cache. We made quick work of retrieving it, and an hour later were back in camp with a small mountain of food. We spent a bit of time before dinner rigging our ascenders and reviewing fixed line techniques for what we hope to be our carry up onto the West Buttress tomorrow. If the weather cooperates we'll make our first trip up the lines, and all the boxes will be checked for our summit bid.
All for now,

Senate CISA Debates End
The Senate voted Thursday to end debate on a package of amendments to the Cybersecurity Information Sharing Act (CISA). CISA allows businesses to share private consumer data with the federal government in exchange for information on security vulnerabilities and immunity from associated lawsuits. Because CISA covers all consumer data shared with U.S. companies regardless of origin, CISA would allow foreigners to be prosecuted and jailed for crimes outside of the United States. The bill is due to come up for vote the week of 10/26. The bill faces broad opposition from the technology industry and privacy advocates.
The FDA CDRH released its Regulatory Science Priorities for 2016
The FDA Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) has released its Regulatory Science Priorities for 2016, aimed at improving safety and effectiveness of medical devices. Priorities include harnessing big data for scientific advancement, improving device cyber security and performance. CDRH aims to inform strategic funding for regulators and external stakeholders.
Germany requires all Internet companies to make metadata available to its law enforcement agencies
The German parliament has passed a controversial law requiring telecoms and Internet companies to share metadata with law enforcement agencies, allowing agencies to access data without a warrant for citizens who are suspects of "severe crimes". This bill revises a 2010 attempt to introduce such measures in Germany. It contains a short data retention period, a localization requirement, and strict security protections for the metadata German law enforcement would obtain. Once the bill is signed by President Gauk, it may still face opposition from the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU), where it must meet the requirement of limitation to what is "strictly necessary" laid down as a standard last year in the CJEU invalidation of the EU data retention directive last year.

For historical epistemology to succeed, it must adopt a defensible set of categories to characterise scientific activity over time. In historically orientated philosophy of science during the twentieth century, the original categories of theory and observation were supplemented or replaced by categories like paradigm, research program and research tradition. Underlying all three proposals was talk about conceptual systems and conceptual structures, attributed to individual scientists or to research communities, however there has been little general agreement on the nature of these structures. Recent experimental research in cognitive science has considerably refined the theory of concepts. Drawing upon the results of that research, philosophers can construct more concrete and empirically defensible representations of conceptual systems. I will suggest that this research supports a modest and useful sense of both normal and revolutionary science, not as epistemological continuities or discontinuities, but as particular patterns of conceptual change.

It's Saturday night at the Clermont Lounge, Atlanta's long-standing den of depravity and the setting for one of the city's requisite dance parties. The air is thick with smoke and hedonism as the eclectic wall-to-wall crowd of middle-of-the-road bros in Polo shirts, sorority girls in white pants, and shirtless gay black men writhes to the rhythm of Michael Jackson's "Working Day and Night." In the bar's far corner two half-naked strippers — a sister act named Mercedes and Lexus — bump and grind to the music.
Behind the DJ booth stands a lanky, unassuming dude with a close-cropped afro, DJ Quasi Mandisco, bobbing his head to the music and adjusting the sound levels with the steady hands of a surgeon. He's the protégé, the opening DJ who's there to get the place moving before his mentor arrives. It's just about 1:30 a.m. when he leans into the microphone to announce that the man of the hour has entered the building: "Ladies and gentleman," he says with a low rumble, "Romeo Cologne."
A figure steps out of the shadows, dressed to the nines in a vintage black suit with a frilly white scarf tied around his neck and a black Italian fedora cocked over his right eye. Taking his place behind the booth, he points a finger to the heavens and drops the needle on James Brown's "Too Funky in Here."
The room explodes with energy.
Romeo Cologne has been holding court every Saturday night at the Clermont for more than 14 years. Until Jan. 18, he'd done the same at the Star Bar in Little Five Points for 17 years — or, as Cologne puts it, "917 consecutive weeks." Billed as Atlanta's longest-running dance party, Tuesday night's Funk Royale has never skipped a beat — not even after a 2009 house fire that almost left Cologne homeless and fueled rumors of a suicide attempt. And when his party got the boot from the Star Bar last month, Cologne got his groove back the following Tuesday less than a mile away at 10 High on North Highland Avenue. At 57, an age when most men are looking forward to retirement, he's spinning funk and disco at least two nights a week, sometimes more, and maintains the lifestyle of Atlanta nightlife royalty. As his part-time chauffeur Chad Cabra points out: "When Romeo spins, Romeo doesn't drive."
An aura of whimsical decadence surrounds every ounce of Romeo Cologne's being, but there's more to his character than grand entrances, a cane and a pimp limp. His behind-the-booth persona channels a lifetime of experiences into a Southern-fried and sanctified master of ceremonies whose musical DNA comes from the same gene pool that spawned R.E.M., the B-52's and the rest of the kids who rocked Athens in the late '70s and early '80s. But Cologne has his own creation myth that involves inexplicable premonitions, Dumpster diving, and a treasure trove of discarded vinyl that transformed him into a funktastic boogie man with a higher calling.
Over the years, Cologne has counted dozens of celebrities hanging out at the Star Bar during his Funk Royale nights: Christina Aguilera, George Clinton, Chilli from TLC, Naomi Campbell, Tara Reid, Erykah Badu, Danger Mouse, Bonecrusher, Dallas Austin, T.I., Goodie Mob and Pink, to name a few. Cee-Lo Green was a regular at his gigs for years, and still shows up from time to time to pay his respects. He even had Cologne DJ his wedding.
Through it all, he's remained the eternal bachelor. Women have come and gone, but nothing too serious. As payment for his gigs, Cologne gets the door money and, judging by the sheer number of bodies on the floor at the Clermont on any given Saturday night, business is good. The crowd is a melting pot of people in their late 20s to early 30s and older, dirty dancing to such classic cuts as P-Funk's "Flashlight," the Gap Band's "You Dropped a Bomb On Me" and Carl Carlton's "She's a Bad Mamma Jamma."
"The modern DJ is like a secular priest," Cologne says, philosophically. "People are looking for him to send them a message. A lot of people don't have anything positive going on in their life, so when they come out, they are literally saved by the music, that's what it did for me."
Back in the summer of 1975, the same year George Clinton and Parliament dropped their mother lode of a Mothership Connection, Cologne, known then by his birth name David Pierce, was on the verge of embarking on a musical journey that was funky in its own right. He'd just ended a three-year term as a medic in the Army and Air Force after being drafted in 1972. Though the Vietnam War was in full swing, he was discharged from his Montgomery, Ala., duty station without seeing a lick of combat. While paying a visit to his brother — who was studying drama at the University of Georgia, just down the road from their hometown of Rome — he was impressed by the scenery. "I went to a house party one night and there were all of these chicks there," he remembers. "I thought, 'Man, I want to live here!'"

The month of February was quite generous in terms of snowfall at the start. However things quickly transitioned to drier and warmer conditions that lasted most of the rest of the month. March usually offers healthy snowfall giving us an opportunity to add to those numbers. While there is good snow potential in March, the […]Click here for the rest of the story.

Ok, Professors. Now's not the time (er, at least place) for a physics lesson.
Why is it impossible?
Matter can travel faster than light in certain circumstances. Why shouldn't it be able to travel at equal speed?
Gotta hate the Crosby commercials. Though, the radio broadcast in the background was fun. "We call the Penguins losing in the 2nd round an underachievement..." Really? I called it hysterical.

Mixing in the royal circle: James Middleton's girlfriend Donna Air heads to club with Princess Beatrice
She's started dating our future Queen's brother so Donna Air has wasted no time in mixing in royal circles ready to fit in with her new life.
The former TV presenter, who started dating James Middleton last month, seems to already be well in the mix with his in laws as she even headed out with Princess Beatrice on Thursday evening.
Donna, 33, Beatrice, 24, and her longterm boyfriend Dave Clark all headed to new hotspot Lou Lou's as they mingled inside together.
In with his in laws: Donna Air heads to party with her boyfriend James Middleton's in laws Princess Beatrice and Dave Clark as they mingle together on Thursday night
Getting along: Princess Beatrice and her boyfriend Dave Clark headed to Mayfair hotspot LouLou's after enjoying dinner ready to spend time with Donna
Although James was missing from the late night outing, Donna dressed in her finest as she left the Butterfly Ball she had been at earlier in the evening to head to the Mayfair club.
She wore a stunning floorlength black frock by Italian couture designer Luisa Beccaria with sheer arms and embroidered detailing, while she wore her blonde locks down and wavy.
Donna, who has a nine-year-old daughter Freya from her seven-year relationship with Damian Aspinall,then met James' brother-in-law's cousin and her boyfriend Dave inside as they headed to the venue to see the pretty blonde.
Dressed up: James was missing from the outing but Donna ensured she looked her best as she made her way from the Butterfly Ball in a Luisa Beccaria black dress to meet Beatrice at the Mayfair private members' club
It's the same private members club that James and Donna debuted their romance in April
The couple, who have been dating for six years, had earlier enjoyed a romantic dinner together at new eating hot spot Story.
The Bermondsey venue has been making waves recently thanks to its innovative idea from 26-year-old chef Tom Sellers.
Date night: Before heading to see Donna, Beatrice and Dave had dined at new restaurant Story, where diners can leave books to fill the venue
Dressed up: Beatrice wore a sequin jacket after she had enjoyed a 10 course meal at the restaurant with her beau of over six years
Next stop! As soon as they finished the meal the couple decided to continue the party at LouLou's
Good spirits: The pair looked happier than ever as they left the restaurant sufficiently full from their meal
The concept means everything inside surrounds the story theme, with every diner asked to leave a book at the venue while eating there.
The food, meanwhile, includes their own stories, with inscriptions of gimmicks and tales created by the chef.
It is not known, however, if Beatrice and Dave had brought their own book to leave at the restaurant on Thursday evening.
Catching a ride: A chauffeur driver was of course on hand to whisk Beatrice and Dave from south London to Mayfair to party
Elegant: Donna showed exactly what attracted James to her as she smouldered at the back of her taxi after finally calling it a night
Although they certainly looked like they had enjoyed themselves at the eaterie as they walked out with big grins on their faces strolling along hand in hand.
During their time there they reportedly enjoyed a four-hour 10 course meal.
Dishes on the 10 course menu included bread and dripping, Mackerel with Mermaid's hair and strawberries, and Three Bears' porridge.
Donna, meanwhile, had spent the earlier part of her evening at The Butterfly Ball: A Sensory Experience, alongside Beatrice's mother Sarah Ferguson.
Fit for royals: Princess Beatrice and boyfriend Dave Clark dined at Story in London's SE1, which is run by 26-year-old chef Tom Sellers
New concept: Diners can leave books at the restaurant, although it's not known whether Beatrice left a novel for the bookcases
Books galore: There are already plenty of stories stacked up in the restaurant as even the food follows the story theme

"When you accept money in payment for your effort, you do so only on the conviction that you will exchange it for the product of the effort of others. It is not the moochers or the looters who give value to money. Not an ocean of tears nor all the guns in the world can transform those pieces of paper in your wallet into the bread you will need to survive tomorrow. Those pieces of paper which should have been gold, are a token of honor -- your claim upon the energy of the men who produce. Your wallet is your statement of hope that somewhere in the world around you there are men who will not default on that moral principle which is the root of money." ~ Ayn Rand
Long Live Intellectual Property Rights!
In a recent STR column, Roderick Long argues that, "Either intellectual property means slavery, or it means nothing at all." I would beg to differ.
Let us view the question from the standpoint of the right of individuals to voluntarily engage in private contracts with others. This right is taken as being one of the core inalienable freedoms by virtually all people of a libertarian bent, I believe.
Now suppose that I've written a program which enhances photographs by making the dark areas brighter, without washing out the bright areas (I have, in fact, written such a program). Certainly it's a fine and wonderful thing if I choose to share that program freely, either in executable or source code form, as a gift to the world. But only a statist would claim that I have a moral or legal duty to do so. If I decide to keep the algorithm and everything that flows from it secret, and take them with me to the grave, that is my right.
If I wish to share the program, yet not give it away, one option would be to invite others to send me their photographs, enhance them, and return the enhanced photos, either free or for a fee. I might offer the service for free until a large enough pool of people want more of it, then charge.
Suppose Bill, whose photos I've enhanced, says, "I'd rather run your program myself, so I can fix pictures on the spot instead of waiting for you to do them." I say, "Well, Bill, I'm afraid that if I send the executable to you, you'll run off copies and give them to others. Then I lose all ability to make money from this thing I've invented."
What's Bill going to answer? Perhaps something like this: "I promise I won't pass a copy of your program along to anybody else, if you'll just share it with me." I respond, "Will you back that promise, in writing, with a large monetary penalty if I can show that you've violated this agreement?" Bill: "Yes I will."
Would Mr. Long make the resulting contract non-binding by government decree? That strikes me as absurd. It is perfectly reasonable and valid for two people (or, by extension, two companies or other entities) to come to such an agreement. I get a lump sum of cash, am relieved of future work on Bill's photos, and Bill gets to enhance his own pix. I can continue to offer enhancement services, and may, if I find willing buyers, sell additional copies of the program under similar terms.
In my view, it is to the benefit of everyone if such contracts are possible, and, when necessary, are backed by whatever mechanism of enforcement the two parties have agreed upon. I need hardly add that no one forces Bill to sign; he may choose to use my services under my terms or forego them. Or, he may decide to try to write, or otherwise acquire, a different program which produces similar, perhaps better, results, and cut me out of the picture. If, on the other hand, Bill voluntarily agrees to contract with me, who is Mr. Long, or anybody else, to say that the contract should not be honored?
The same reasoning applies to other forms of intellectual property: prose, poetry, music, whatever. What's that I hear you say, that books and music aren't "the same" as software? They are different in detail, not in principle. To take Mr. Long's own example, suppose I read you my latest poem. But before I do so, I ask, "Will you agree not to pass this on?" and I wait for your affirmative answer before proceeding. Voila, we have a contract.
Do you object that books and music aren't sold with such an agreement? They most certainly are; it's called copyright law. Now, we might agree that copyrights are a clumsy way to approach the problem, and that people should be left to negotiate their own terms on a case-by-case basis. But this in no way negates the solid principle behind what copyright laws protect.
Some forms of intellectual property are much easier to steal than the source code of my example program, especially if I offer only enhancement services. But the fact that it is easier does not make it any more legitimate. Theft made easy is not theft made moral.
It is often said that a conservative is a liberal who has been mugged. I wonder whether those who argue that intellectual property rights are "slavery" have never had a creation of value stolen from them. Or is it, even worse, a lust to get something for nothing? Whatever the motivation, the assertion is nonsense.

Gold Rises to 29-Week High on Stimulus by Central Banks
Gold futures rose to 29-week high on speculation that steps by central banks to bolster economic growth will spur demand for the metal as a store of value.
The Bank of Japan said today that it will add 10 trillion yen ($127 billion) to a fund that buys assets. On Sept. 13, the Federal Reserve announced a third round of U.S. monetary stimulus. This month, European Central Bank President Mario Draghi gave details on a plan to buy debt of member states, while China approved infrastructure spending.
"Gold likes the announcement out of Japan," Frank Lesh, a trader at FuturePath Trading in Chicago, said in a telephone interview. "People are concerned that this wave of global easing will stoke inflation."
On the Comex in New York, gold futures for December delivery climbed 50 cents to settle at $1,771.70 an ounce at 1:45 p.m. Earlier, the price reached $1,781.80, the highest for a most-active contract since Feb. 29. The metal has gained 13 percent this year.
Silver futures for December delivery fell 0.4 percent to $34.588 an ounce.
On the New York Mercantile Exchange, platinum futures for October delivery increased 0.3 percent to $1,640.40 an ounce.
Police used tear gas and stun grenades to disperse a crowd near mines in South Africa owned by Anglo American Platinum Ltd., the world's largest producer.
Yesterday, some workers at Lonmin Plc's Marikana mine ended a six-week strike that left at least 45 people dead. Platinum prices jumped 22 percent from Aug. 10, the start of the strike, to Sept. 14.
Palladium futures for December delivery rose 0.9 percent to $673.05 an ounce on the Nymex.

I am trying to create a shortcode in Wordpress, in which the function that is called with the shortcode tag gets the shortcode tag as parameter.
So say I have

then I want
'my_shortcode_function' to know the shortcode tag by it was called. I know that I could use attributes as in

text: Thought it might be fun to think up an entire regional Pokédex featuring CAP characters and other fakemon... we could use the current Gen IV CAP's and add Gen V CAP's as we go along, gradually expanding the dex. In keeping with the spirit of CAP, it would probably end up being a Dex with no existing Pokémon (kinda like the Unova Dex, and following cues from Battle CAPacity). Plus it could also be cool to think up legendaries using the CAP process (or a similar process). Thoughts?

HP cpu Wont connect to my monitor.
Alrighty so for awhile now My Hp cpu wont connect to any monitor, I've used HDMI,VGA,DVI and the monitor only says "Monitor Going to Sleep"
Ive tried to restart it by unplugging and holding down the power button, getting a new cable,I listen in for any beeps from the cpu but nothin the fans are working good. I need to get alot of personnal files,family pictures, and Web Projects out of it. I've checked for anything inside to be loose, everything seems to be in place and finely put. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!!
Re: HP cpu Wont connect to my monitor.
It could be that the video card has failed or if it is using onboard graphics and they have failed. If you do not wish to spend any funds to solve the problem, one can remove the hard drive and connect it to another computer to retrieve the files needed.
If help is needed to try to solve the monitor problem, a model number for the PC is needed.
Please click "Accept As Solution" if my help has solved your problem. ----------}

Terima kasih atas gratisannya
@ande: Sometimes they can. The reason is that 64 bit drivers have to be digitally signed, which can be more expensive.
@Ashraf: What about doing an article on Defragmentation as well as the different ways to do it and the programs that do it?
- ande
I use Auslogics defrag and it works fine, thanks.
On another note, but pertinent here, I'd like to get the 64 bit version of some of the free software – do you know why do the manufacturers only make the 32 bit available? I understand most people are running 32 bit, but does the 64 bit version cost more to make or something?
- Aviator
- Jeanjean
Thank you both but I have follow the previous recommendations of Ashraf.
- acr
@Ashok: A 48.5 MB bootcd.iso is included in the download. So that explains some of the size. Personally I have not found a better defragger than j/k defrag, now mydefrag. But I still like jk as it does not require install and I have noticed the best results on my computer.
- Ashraf
@tarzan007: You are welcome =). Thank Karen too!
@Amit K: You are welcome =). Thank Karen too!
@John: You are welcome =). Thank Karen too!
@mohsen: Thanks for the feedback =).
@Giovanni: Honestly, the only thing I really like about Paragon Total Defrag 2010 is the boot disk. Otherwise, while it is good, 75 MB for a defragger is too much!
I don't know about Ultimate Defrag but IObit Smart Defrag is excellent.
@Ashok: I couldn't agree more. However I do like Auslogics over Defraggler.
@Quro@75: You are welcome =).
@Bruce Fraser: I am not recommending this product; did you read my review? I recommended other defrags. I am simply bringing this freebie to light (with the help of Karen of course). Anyway, I do think you are worried too much about that – it doesn't seem too big of a deal to me.
@jumbi: I agree. Twice.

# Bruce Fraser
If you really care about your computer (and its data), you should use a UPS anyway.
In that case, use fast mode.
Letting the user choose which mode to use, doesn't makes the product "dead" :-)
Also, Paragon offers the creation of a bootable CD which makes a better defragment overall. Most other defragmenters do not offer this option.
- Bruce Fraser
Ashraf: I'm astonished that you recommend this product! It should be dead on arrival. Here's why.
The Paragon website contains this gem in its description of the software:
"Use one of 2 available modes for defragmentation: Fast or Safe. Safe Mode is slower but it protects your data in case of a power failure during defragmentation."
Safe is OPTIONAL?!!
Almost all defrag programs use the defragmenter API which comes built into Windows. It GUARANTEES safety by not overwriting data until a copy is securely made elsewhere on the drive. Sure, this slows things down, but what's the rush? Just let it work away in the background, or even better, schedule it to run during the night.
I do love Paragon's product. But I think I am gonna pass this one. As your last review result about this Paragon Total Defrag 2010, this one is not fit me. But still thanks to Karen & Ashraf for telling us abaout this opportunity.
- Ashok
A whopping 75MB doanload for this while Defraggler from makers of CCleaner is free and a very small footprint. Also supports 64 bit!
- Giovanni
Hey Ashraf,
I have just a question for you and/or everybody else:
is, in your view, Paragon Total Defrag 2010 better than the award winning ULTIMATE DEFRAG??
And what about IObit SMART DEFRAG?
Waiting for your tech feedback.
- mohsen
thanks ashraf,
i haven't tried 2010 version but total defrag 2009 was very slow ,even in fast mode,and it always defrags whole partition, i mean even if you add a single file to an already defraged drive,paragon still starts from beginning,just like your drive is completely fragmented (with default method).
there is not any slower defragment software in the world than it's boot time defrag.
when time is subject,paragon is looser.
- John
Tough luck here. I'm on a 64bit system. But, a great thanks to you for publishing this offering for our 32 bit friends.
- Amit K
Thanks for this.
- tarzan007
Thanks a lot for the heads up Ashraf

of course (I hope the hamster didn't die on impact)
It's just a comic strip, templo SUD.
Our hamsters had trouble getting their "hamster ball" up over the edge of the carpet. It was fun watching them try.
Here kitty!
Well, going down doesn't seem so difficult… ;-)
Those hamster balls are really sturdy. They are quite safe in them (personal experience – my kids has a couple of hamsters when they were young).
Lynn's Notes:
Going back to my friend with the big heart and too many animals: The hamster had one of those transparent exercise balls, which the kids found fascinating – as did the family cat. When the hamster was not inclined to run for his pleasure, the kids encouraged him by rolling the ball themselves. I remember them saying that they wished they could ride in a ball like that, and putting myself in place of the dizzy, disoriented hamster, I thought… yeah… maybe not!
I've actually HAD a ride in a ball like that. There was a carnival ride at the state fair last year that did the exact same thing for humans, only in water. (The ball floated in the water; the human inside stayed dry.) It was a lot of fun, but exhausting within a very few minutes!
Apparently Lynn never heard of Zorbing.
And at the bottom of the stairs, they wondered why the hamster was asleep.
Story-time week.
The weekday strips only number six, hence a week in the FBOFW universe could take longer than real-time due to the difference. Also, there can be times they are showing a dialogue that takes a few strips to publish, but would probably only be a few minutes or so in the real world.
Imagine how many calories were burned doing that!
That hamster's got ball.

Nintendo Q2 Financials – Wii U Sales Up, but Company Still Losing Money
Nintendo has published its second quarterly report and stated that while 300,000 Wii U consoles were sold, the 3DS hardware sales are down by 22%.
Nintendo confirmed an operating loss of ¥23.28 billion / $237 million, which marks a 20% year-on-year improvement. Net sales totaled ¥196.5 billion.
For the period between July and September 2013 for hardware, Nintendo sold 300,000 Wii U consoles, which is an 87% increase on the previous quarter. That's 460,000 units for the six-month period ending September 2013.
On the bright side, Wii U software saw a significant 400% leap in sales in Q2, totaling life-time sales of units worldwide, with Pikmin 3 and The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD championed in Nintendo's report.
The investors note stated,
"The Wii U hardware still has a negative impact on Nintendo's profits."
On the other hand, the 3DS console sales have reached 3.89 million units for the period, while software sales hit 27.38 million. The console has sold 34.98 million units since it launched. This still places the 3DS sales at a 22% loss.
Animal Crossing: New Leaf has proven to be a huge success with 2.49 million units sold in the period. Nintendo also noted "steady sales" of Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, Mario & Luigi: Dream Team and Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D.
Nintendo is continuing to maintain its projection of ¥100 billion operating income target, and notes the release of Pokemon X & Y, the 2DS console and Super Mario 3D world as key drivers moving forward. The company is targeting big first-party releases moving forward to continue its momentum.
What are your thoughts? Will Nintendo make it?

Cooking 101 for Your College-Bound Child (cont.)
One More Thing Before You Leave
It was difficult for me to say good-bye to my son three years ago, and it's going to be even harder when I take my daughter to school this fall. Spending this special time with each of my children gave me a wonderful opportunity to impart some domestic wisdom, but, more important, it was cherished time to be together.
My son still calls me with cooking and recipe questions, and has impressed a date or two with his culinary skills. I suspect my daughter will feel very confident in the kitchen, and hope she continues to eat healthfully and avoid the dreaded "freshman 15."
All you can do as a parent is to teach your children well and set a good example. As much as I would like to keep them young and at home, I feel great knowing that they passed "Mom 101," and I'm confident they'll be able to fend for themselves in their first apartments.
The real test will be when they invite me to dinner. I await that day with great anticipation.

Americans have many passions and entertainment, but the NFL has been a part of the American culture for over 81 years. One year after the world officially ended World War I, many American football leagues and some independent teams agreed on becoming the American Professional Football Conference. Shortly after that it was renamed the National Football League. Many wars and conflicts have occurred since the NFL was developed, some worst than others, but they all have one common factor, brave men and women who have volunteered and had been drafted to defend our great nation and protect us from our enemies. Hundreds of Thousands of Service men and women are currently deployed to war zones all over the world. Their mission, to protect us from our enemies, they are making sacrifices and performing combat duties most Americans will never have to imagine. As we thank our veterans both past and present, please also keep in your thoughts the military families who sacrifice being separated from their loved ones as they deploy, if it wasn't for families, service members would not have the satisfaction of knowing their families safe and secured at home.

• Your entry should include a primary team logo and home and road uniform designs. (If you like, you can also include secondary logos and alternate uniforms, but those aren't required.)
• Uniform and logo designs can be created in any digital or analog medium (Illustrator, Photoshop, crayon, whatever) and can be submitted in any standard digital format (JPG, PDF, tiff, etc.).
• Please include your name and email address somewhere on the image file, like this.
• In keeping with longstanding Uni Watch chromata non-grata policy, any designs that include even a hint of purple will be disqualified.

• Deadline: Monday, June 11, noon ET.
The winning entries will be showcased in a future Uni Watch column and will also be forwarded to the Astros and MLB, where they'll no doubt receive careful consideration. OK? Get crackin'.

Tory party leader David Cameron falls foul of cybersquatters
The leader of the Conservative party has recently fallen victim to cybersquatters after failing to secure alternative domain names to his new blog, www.webcameron.org.uk.
Domains of similar websites, including www.webcameron.info and www.webcameron.co.uk have been snapped up by others, while one, www.webcameron.com, has been up and running for years as the personal web page of an Australian poet.
Rival party UKIP bought www.webcameron.info and used it to host a spoof video of David Cameron. At the bottom of the page, the text reads: "Copyright 1996 New Labour. All words, hand gestures, insincere facial expressions and media stunts used strictly under licence from the Labour Party's mid-90's [sic] 'Spin your way to the top' guide". A link to the "web team" takes you to a UKIP homepage.
"It's a bit of rookie mistake for a politician who's trying to make a point about appealing to a new demographic", said Matthew Bloch, director of York-based Bytemark Hosting. "His heart's in the right place, but he's got a part of it wrong in his appealing-to-the-kids gesture."
The Australian owner of www.webcameron.com, meanwhile, has found his site flooded with hits since the launch of David Cameron's blog.
"I never thought my name was so fortuitous as it has been in the last couple of days", said Cameron M Semmens in an email to NetNames, a Web domain management company. "I doubt there would be much of a chance of me selling on my domain name – I like it."

LOS ANGELES Jan 28 Kris Jenner, the matriarch of the Kardashian reality television family, is getting her own daytime TV talk show later this year, U.S. broadcast network Fox said on Monday.
Jenner's show, which will be called "Kris," will begin a test run in the summer on Fox affiliates in Los Angeles, New York and other cities.
If expanded nationwide, the show could catapult Jenner, 57, from manager to lifestyle expert alongside daughters Kim, Kourtney and Khloe who have starred on reality series on U.S. channel E!.
The daily, one-hour show will feature celebrity guests and address lifestyle trends, Fox said. Jenner has previously been a guest host on CBS daytime talk show "The Talk."
"This is something I have wanted to do all my life so it's definitely a dream come true! I can't wait for this new adventure to begin," Jenner said in a statement.
Jenner, who was married to the late attorney and businessman Robert Kardashian, is now married to Olympic decathlon gold medalist Bruce Jenner, 63.
Fox is a unit of News Corp.
