Operators are re-evaluating how to run the network given opex/capex pressures, the need to run multiple generations of technology, and the demand to innovate services faster. Most operators don't realize signaling can be the gateway–or barrier–to a network that easily supports services like VoLTE, VoWiFi and IoT. Industry recognized signaling expert Doug Ranalli explains the signaling layer and how operators are utilizing a "common signaling core" to create competitive advantage and reduce costs.Click Here to Indicate Your Interest in Attending

We were invited to fish the beautiful Umpqua River just outside of Roseburg OR for hard fighting Spring Chinook Salmon. This was one of those days you only dream about and happen very few times during your fishing years. Umpqua River Springers are some of the best tasting Salmon in the world and are not only a prized fish but very hard to catch. Its takes on average 30 hours of fishing to get one of these Salmon and we hooked four by 9:00am!
After you watch this video you can swipe or use the arrows to view more fishing videos with Big K Outfitters.
Todd Harrington fishes for Steelhead, Salmon, Sturgeon as well as trophy small mouth bass all summer. To find out more about Big K Outfitters or book a trip you can visit their website in the link below. Be sure to mention you saw this video on Steelhead Stalkers!

A little design work today for an Alive Media client. This is a for a church's sermon series artwork.
A little design work today for an Alive Media client. This is a for a church's sermon series artwork.
Last night my family and I had to make the very difficult decision to let our boxer Rocco go. To say that we are just devastated would be pretty accurate. I wanted to share a little about his story partly to have it out there, but also because at the moment, it seems a good way to deal with my own grief and as I watch my family grieve. This post will be pretty long so just wanted to put that out there. I know a lot of people have varied view on pets and animals. All we know is this: Rocco was dearly loved and knew it. And he loved his family, too. Beyond us, you would be hard pressed to find someone who didn't love Rocco, too, after meeting him. He was a special dog, indeed. He certainly set the bar high for any pet. If every family could experience a pet like him, they would understand what I'm saying for themselves.
Several months ago he started having serious issues with what seemed to be his hips and back and was placed on an anti-inflammatory (and at times aspirin) along with glucosamine which really seemed to help him get up from laying down and move about a little better.
Fast forward to about 2 weeks ago, and his health seem to deteriorate pretty quickly. He had increasing problems just getting up, his legs would buckle at times when walking, the "boxer wiggle" and even wagging his nub were gone (which is unusual if you know boxers and especially if you knew Rocco), he had increasing bouts of incontinence, and would often just stand and have a 1,000 yard stare about him. He would often during the night be circling, walking around. We came to find out that more than likely he was in severe pain in his back. We did some blood tests and although he did have a slightly low thyroid, there were just a number of other things going on that didn't seem to fit just a low thyroid. The vet and our family had suspicions that something neurological was going on based on his behavior. Boxers at that age often have tumors or lesions in the brain so that would certainly be a possibility. He was placed on several medications to try to help him including a steroid. At first he seemed to be responding well but then seem to deteriorate as the higher dosage of steroid was tapered off. So the vet wanted to elevate that back up, which we did. He seemed to respond okay again. Then two days ago, he again started to go downhill. The same issues he had been struggling with returned and seemed to even be worse. Last night it got to the point where we couldn't get him to get up on his own although he did at one point when my parents came over (he just loved my dad). He had been heavy breathing and panting for about two days and last night at times started whimpering. We made the decision that it was time and that we had done what we could. After consulting with the ER Vet, we surmised that even with possible X-Rays, surgeries, etc. that there was no guarantee that his quality of life would be better or even good. We all said our very tearful goodbyes, and then Rocco went peacefully to sleep at about 11:30 pm.
Rocco was a big boxer (95 lbs, give or take) and was just so full of life. He was about 9.5 years old, and he lived a very full and happy life. The average lifespan of a boxer is around 9-10 years or so according to the experts. I say that he was "about 9.5 years old" because that's what we can best guess from when we got him. You see, Rocco was a rescue that we adopted through Carolina Boxer Rescue (CBR). We had been considering adopting a boxer for a while, and had been looking at the website a good bit at available boxers. We had seen Rocco's photo on the website, but to be honest, he looked pretty bad. In fact, we said to ourselves at one point "That poor dog. We wonder what family would EVEN consider adopting him." Well…..that would eventually be us. Each adopting family has to have an interview with one of the staff from CBR to make sure that your yard is fenced and probably to make sure you can care for a pet. They would bring boxers that were being fostered with them to get them used to visits even if a family wasn't going to adopt that particular boxer. We still think that was a setup btw. 😉 So, they had named Rocco already and brought him along for the visit. Rocco had been found wandering the streets and was eaten up with mange before coming to CBR. He was almost 3/4 the way through his treatments for mange when he came to visit us. So the lady from CBR brought Rocco inside, and he looked a good bit different from the photos we had seen online. What a sweet dog he was. We were watching Rocco with our kids as he played with them out back. He was having a blast. Probably the pivotal moment was when Rocco and Spencer were together, and Spencer said to Rocco, "Sit". On the spot, Rocco sat. One of those moments where both Kim and I glanced at each other like "Hmm, this could be something." With Spencer being autistic and 5 years old at the time, finding the right fit for him was going to be important, in addition to being a right fit with the rest of our family. The visit ended and the CBR lady left with Rocco. Kim and I looked at each other, and said, "Well, what about Rocco?" We both decided that he was the one we wanted to adopt. A little bit later, Rocco became an official part of our family.
Rocco truly was "Man's Best Friend". He was an incredible blessing to our family, and I think that we were to him as well. He was with our family through some really dark days and some really great ones, too. I think that the hardest part is dealing with the reality that I won't hear his tag jingle as he walks around, I walk into rooms where he would lay, and he isn't there anymore. I miss my friend. I will miss taking him for walks, petting on his soft head and ears, greeting us when we got home and chasing our fat cat Max around as he played. Last night involved a lot of tearful prayers from our family as we gave thanks to God for the blessing Rocco was to our lives. None of us wanted to go inside last night when we returned home because we knew how that would feel at first: Empty. Yet, we sat down inside and were able to talk about some of the happy times we had with Rocco and what he meant to each of us. He was very loved and will be deeply missed. Sleep well, my friend.
Some of the work that my companies do is custom design (both graphic and motion video) projects for churches. We basically come along side as their creative media team to help them develop screen, print and video resources for their message series. I'll be posting some of those new projects here and there just to share. Here is a recent series that we designed called Heroes. The project called for a comic book feel overall. Below is the main message graphic and the bumper we created.
This past weekend Kim and I had a chance to celebrate 20 years of marriage by traveling to the Biltmore House and Estate in Asheville, NC. This place holds special meaning for us as it was one of our stops on our honeymoon. We haven't been back since so it was cool to see how the estate and the surrounding area has grown since.
After we toured the estate, we went out to dinner to finish out the day. While we were discussing a number of things, Kim asked me, "So, what do you think is the 'secret' to us being together for 20 years?" I had to think about it for a minute because that is a pretty involved question. I told her that I think there are a number of factors that I think contributed to our 20 years of marriage. In the practical though, one practice did stand out that I think is HUGE for any relationship. Here's what it is: Continue reading
Too often we want the benefit OF a relationship without putting in the commitment TO the relationship.
Setting goals has not been one of my strengths. Even though study after study seems to indicate that those that do are more successful and achieve more than those that don't, I have struggled every year to set goals. I wondered why that was so difficult for me. It came down to this:
I was overthinking it WAY too much and making it much more complicated than it has to be.
In my mind, I was thinking that I had to have the right formula, a certain number of actions points, perfectly formatted and equally bulleted actions steps, etc. I would often wonder what should I set goals for, and what categories should they be listed under. See what I mean. Overthinking.
Hello…Hello….is this thing on?…
Well, I had seriously considered shutting down the blog, but I held off just because I thought there might be a remote chance I would want to blog later on. This has always been a place where I've shared thoughts and ideas that are swimming in my head. So although it's been a while, here's the latest.
This morning I was reading through Hebrews 11:8-16. Some would call it the "Hall of Faith" because it goes through several lives of people in the Bible that lived and took action "by faith". In fact, that phrase "by faith" appears 4 times in this short passage.
You can read the passage for yourself. While I'm always struck by the amount of faith each person had and acted on, in my mind, Abraham's always stands out: "By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going." (v8)
That is incredible faith. It's not just incredible, it's dangerous. It's the kind of faith that would make some look at you like you've lost it. Even other believers in Christ will think that of you. It's not "prudent". It's not "wise". I'm not throwing out wisdom and prudence. It's just that so often faith seems to go against the grain of what would be deemed as wisdom and prudence.
Let me preface this post by saying that this is in no way meant to be an attempt to tear down church leadership nor is it directed at any church leadership in particular. Rather, this is a post to speak about the reality of being on a church staff, some retrospect in my own journey and to possibly be a voice for some church staff who have and are going through this reality. This Augusta 31st marks one year since my last day (for now) as a vocational church staff member. I've had some time over these past 9 months to process my experience as a full time church staff member, and it's been particularly interesting during that time to view things as now we're plugged into ministry and our church from a non-staff person's perspective. Let me say that I believe fully that the local church is God's Plan A and there is no other plan. I love the local church.
As Kim and I have become small group leaders at our church, it's been so exciting to be able to meet together with a group of people each week and dig in to the Bible, get to know each other, and slowly be transparent about life….the good and the bad. It's about being involved in Biblical community. Probably one of the best phrases I've heard to describe this is "doing life together." That's what small groups and Biblical community should be like. It's about being real, being authentic and where appropriate, transparent….get the picture?
Now, here's what I would say from my observation and experience over the years: A lot, if not most, church staff members (and their spouse if married) struggle with "doing life together" in Biblical community and small groups within the church they serve.
The start of a new day. Work projects are on the docket and are calling for attention. The temptation is to throw back some coffee and dive right on in.
This is my morning routine and struggle. Has been ever since I was a teenager. The distractions have changed, but the pull is that same. It's that temptation to totally forego any time alone with God and dive right into work…or even Facebook or Twitter. Don't hate. You know you're there to. Continue reading
It's that thing that you've been praying about for weeks, maybe months or years, that you REALLY want. If God would answer this prayer in a "Yes!", life would be just that much better. Ever been there? I have. In fact, I'm there right now. I'm asking for something that I really hope the Lord will answer in the affirmative, but I'm trying my best to stay at the place of "God, I'm asking You to do this, but not my will, Your will." Maybe you can relate. I think we all have been there on a regular, sometimes daily, basis. Some things small, some things life critical.

Politics Three Contrarian Ideas About Global Warming
posted by August 7 at 8:00 AMon
Here are three contrarian takes on global warming and the environment; one dumb and two worth remembering.
1. This one, from the UK Times Online, seems moronic. The idea is this: Driving to the store is better for the environment than walking to the store because the amount of food needed to sustain your walk puts out more carbon than a car ride.
The Times writes:
Food production is now so energy-intensive that more carbon is emitted providing a person with enough calories to walk to the shops than a car would emit over the same distance.
Pretty cute analysis, and maybe Jonathan Golob (the Stranger's new science guy can weigh in), but if you read the article, the only diet the story mentions is a beef and dairy diet. Yes, cattle farming is notoriously noxious. But what about a two-minute walk (past all jammed up cars in traffic) to the QFC for grape fruits, frozen peas, hippie cereal, local bakery bread, apple butter, and oat milk?
2. This post from Grist has it that buying locally produced food isn't always better for the environmentexplaining, for example, that it's better to get your grains from the midwest than from dry California. (It can also destroy the economies of developing countries to banish their importswhich, ultimately, has damning effects on the global system too.)
3. This post (also from Grist) calls bullshit on both Republicans and Democrats for using "energy independence" as their one-stop cop out answer when asked about reducing emissions. Grist guy David Roberts writes, for example:
It's possible to tackle energy independence — or at least look like you're tackling it — without doing a thing for global warming. (See: liquid coal, ethanol, "price gouging" legislation, etc.)

The apartment was perfect! Everything was clean and looked even better in real than it did in the photos.
The keyless entry makes entering and leaving the apartment very easy without having to worry about losing a key.
The subway station is pretty much around the corner. The walk takes less than 5 minutes. From there, several trains take you to Manhatten in about 20 minutes. The ride from and to JFK Airport takes about 30 minutes.
Jason was a great host, he was waiting for us as we arrived and helped us carry our suitcases. He even had bottled water waiting for us in the refrigerator.
We will definitely come back. Thank you, Jason!
We have very much enjoyed our stay with Jason. The apartment is spacious and fully equipped, including a LCD screen and computer, while the bathroom was clean and has a nice shower. The location is very near the Elmhurst Av subway station, with fast connections to Manhattan (20 minutes) and the neighborhood is friendly with several very nice places to enjoy Asian food. Finally, Jason took very good care of us during our stay.
The apartment is located near the lively Broadway street with a lot of Asian shops and restaurants. It is close to a rail with little traffic. Moreover some airplanes taken off from LGA across the sky over the area. Nevertheless Cornish Avenue is a quiet and safe street and we slept comfortably.
The "local trains" subway is near, about 3 minutes walk and from there you can arrive at Times Square in about 30 minutes. Alternatively, to reach Manhattan more quickly, 2 bus stops away (by Q53 bus) there is Jackson-Roosevelt metro station where many "express trains" stop.
The apartment was clean and looked larger than on the photos. It is very well equipped: kitchen with all accessories, bathroom with tub shower combo and hairdryer, bedroom with air conditioner and big and comfortable beds, living room with air conditioner, a big LCD tv and a PC. A good wifi connection is available.
Unfortunately we haven't meet Jason but he was always reachable if needed. He allowed late checkout and he called and scheduled a taxi for us.
Thanks again Jason!
Jason was a very nice host. The appartment was 30 minutes from Times square by using subway, several grocery stores were in the area. The area is quite and safe. Next time I would chose Jason´s apartment again. Thanks
The apartment is so beautiful, big and very clean. It is very well equipped, the beds are big and comfortable, a kitchen with all accessories, air conditioner and a living room very cool with a big tv. There is a good wifi connection and a PC. Besides there are several details, cool decoration and NY guides to use them.
It's close to the subway we took only 30min to get citycenter. The street is very quiet and the neighborhood is full of restaurants, supermarkets etc…
Jason was very friendly and helpful. They helped us all the time when we need it. We are so happy to find this apartment and his friendly owner. I think is a perfect option to stay in NY and save money.
Thanks for all Jason! Regards from Madrid.
We had a great stay. The apartment was clean and had everything we needed four our 10 days stay. Jason was very friendly and always reachable if needed. The location is convenient, near to the subway, shops and restaurants. Would definetly stay here again.
This place was very clean, spacious, fully equipped. Beds very comfortable. Wifi works perfecty and there are PS with internet too. Subway is close, about 5 minutes walk. 30 minutes by subway to Times Square. Neighborhood was very peace with nice and frendly people. A lot of local groceries, local market, supermarket, taiwan restaurant in this area.
Jason was very helpful and dedicated. I recommend this place!
Thanks again Jason!
Beautiful apartment. Very very clean. Fast WiFi and computer !!
Jason is very friendly and was awaiting our arrival, even with almost two hours delay. He had prepared a subway map and very useful information for the first day (we arrived late at night). Also he had prepared the water machine. He is very concerned the firsts days and then every time we contacted him.
The apartment is 25 minutes by subway from NYC (Times Square), the subway entrance is less than 5 min. walking. A big supermarket is 10-12 min.walking but the neighborhood is plenty of little groceries shops. A laundry (with drop off service) is just turning left on the street (very convenient prices).
It's also very nice to find non-perishable food or amenities left by previous guests.
we (a group of 3 26-yrs old girls/womans) jason was soo friendly and realible. we feel very safe in his apartment. it was big, clean and very near to the subway. the apartment had everything like a hotel.
if youre hungry... around the apartment are sooo many restaurants... almost any time open. you see 2 korean restaurants, mc donald, subway, colombia food, tibetan food, indian food and so much more...
you find also many supermarkets which have almost everything you need..
we felt safe like i said also in the evenings... dont know what to say more than book by jason! just do it now! you will not regret.
The host cancelled the booking, this review is automated.

Topeka (WIBW) - The search for a burglary suspect kept students at two Topeka schools indoors for a while Friday afternnoon.
Topeka Police say a homeowner in the 3500 block of SW Westview interrupted a burglary around 1 pm Friday.
A USD 501 spokesperson says students at Shaner Elementary and Avondale West Elementary weren't allowed to go outside while police combed the area for the suspect. The schools were not, he said, but under complete lockdown.
The suspect is described as either a black or hispanic man in his twenties wearing a red shirt and a white bandana.
Police continue to investigate.

Another beautiful mistake
It's not that often gardeners brag about their mistakes, but when they look like this, why not?
The bright green sedum overwintered in the old pair of boots. At the end of the season last year, I put them in my unheated greenhouse for the winter.
I didn't thing the plants made it. In the spring there were just a few sprouts.
So I put them out into the sunniest part of the garden, which is also the furthest away from the house. My wife isn't too keen on the look of this particular container.
She bought me those boots in the 1980's and they were the first really good pair of boots I ever owned. Being the nostalgic fool that I am, there was no way I could throw them away.
After another perennial sedum started crawling up the boots and then bloomed, even the wife commented on how nice they looked together.
I forgot all about planting that sedum in the garden, so another beautiful mistake was born.
This is the type of mistake any gardener would love.

Read Thursday's 10 Big Ten headlines
The amazing story of Nebrasketball continues, as the Cornhuskers rolled into Indiana last night and won. Ho-hum, right? We've come to expect this, right? That gave Nebraska a sweep of the season series with the Hoosiers. (More proof that if you live long enough, you WILL see everything.) This is just bizarro. But it's also fun as heck. Someone call Hollywood.

Can the curse of District 5 finally be broken?
The northeast Mesa district may be home to lots of qualified people with great leadership potential, but few of those folks have historically stepped up to serve in city government.
That's why I'm heartened to see 18 men and women apply to fill a temporary vacancy left by Dina Higgins, who resigned because work obligations weren't leaving her enough time to devote to the seat.
The list is diverse ideologically, culturally and professionally. There are well-known names in Mesa — Hispanic leader David Luna, former Mesa Public Schools Superintendent Deb Duvall — and newcomers with impressive resumes and experiences.
The City Council has a tough choice to make here, and that's good. It's nice to have an embarrassment of riches.
But something's still troubling me about this list. If this kind of talent is willing to serve for a short time, why not longer? Why has only one candidate — Robert Cluff — officially thrown his hat into the ring for the 2014 election?
Is the pay too low? The hours too long and thankless?
The Chamber of Commerce began raising these issues a couple of years ago because it rightly recognized the need to continue Mesa's solid leadership once the current mayor and council leave office. It would be a tragedy if the city's financial and image turnaround was simply an eight-year fluke.
If the chamber is still serious about recruiting talent, now would be a good time to meet with these candidates, especially those who aren't chosen for the temporary position. Not all 19 should be expected to run in 2014 (most fields winnow once a few front-runners emerge), but we should be doing everything we can to find a place for these talented people to serve.

This is #15 of 108 Ways to Livin the Moment. Let's take back our lives one beautiful, funny and delicious moment at a time.
#15 of 108: Excuse Yourself to Kiss the Sky.
"Kiss the sky!" is a classic line from Jimi Hendrix's song "Purple Haze."
Rolling Stone rated Hendrix as the #1 greatest guitarist of all time. Take a moment to listen before reading on…
This is not about the music or the lyrics or the persona or the song…this is about the guitar.
I heard the guru Osho speak about how the guitar is based on tension.
If the strings are too loose or too tight, there can be no music, no sound…or certainly not the sound that we associate with a talent like Hendrix.
So it goes with life. To be in tune, you have to perceive the tension of your relationship, career, personal gift.
As Osho said, "Life exists through the tension of the opposites, the meeting of the opposites."
All that you have and all that you don't pull at you every day. This tension is the essence of all music, harmony, passion.
Woody Allen said, "Sex alleviates tension. Love causes it."
So take a moment today, and feel all the ways you are being pulled and challenged and tried…all the ways you are tense.
Every one of these ways and intense moments provides you with a choice to bang the guitar to the ground in frustration, or to strike your fingers to the chords and make music.
As Emerson wrote, "The world is all gates, all opportunities, all strings of tension waiting to be struck."
The trick is finding a little groove in the middle, and of course that, like learning to play guitar, takes practice.
Read the Tao:
Countless words
count less
than the silent balance
between yin and yang.
We will crank Hendrix on the arc!
I'm getting ready to launch a little revolution, build a little arc, if you will.
Why? All this technology is crushing our quality of life, the fabric of our humanity. Something is not right and we need some kind of change!
It's not that we stop using technology. But that technology stops using us.
To find out how you can save a seat on the arc and become a Momenteer, email [email protected] write Momenteer! in the subject.

Thousands of teens flock to Catholic rally
Published: Sunday, July 1, 2007 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, June 30, 2007 at 11:13 p.m.
HOUMA Thousands of Catholic teenagers from around the country congregated in Houma this weekend to gain a greater understanding of their faith and connect with fellow worshippers.
Check out the video
To see what was going on at Steubenville on the Bayou, visit www.houmatoday.com/multimedia and click on video.
The group of 3,000 high-school kids, chaperones and volunteers all took part in the annual Steubenville on the Bayou Catholic Youth Conference at the Houma-Terrebonne Civic Center, the first time the center has hosted the event.
Buddy Saragusa of Austin, Texas, participated in Steubenville for the first time this weekend after being prompted by his friends.
Its really good so far, said the 16-year-old, who is staying at a local hotel with his youth group. My faith is growing, and Im having a good time and getting closer to God.
Steubenville on the Bayou is part of a nationwide conference series sponsored by Franciscan University of Steubenville in Ohio and co-sponsored by the Diocese of Houma-Thibodaux.
This is the second year the diocese has presented the youth conference. Last year it was hosted by Nicholls State University and approximately 2,500 people attended, diocesan officials said.
This years Steubenville on the Bayou Conference focuses on the theme All Access, taken from the Bible passage Ephesians 2:17-18, which says, He came and preached peace to you who were far off and peace to those who were near; for through Him we both have access in one Spirit to the Father.
The verse was emphasized throughout the weekend through prayer, worship, entertainment and education, officials said.
Its really about them having an encounter with Christ that they can practice in everyday life, said assistant conference coordinator Melanie Weeks.
After 17-year-old Matt Murray goes home to Austin, Texas, on Sunday afternoon, the time he spent praising and worshipping will go with him. The conference, he said, renewed his focus on spiritual, rather than superficial, matters.
God should be our Paris Hilton, Murray said.
In preparation for the annual event, the Civic Centers parking lot transformed into a miniature tent city, to offer enough space to the young worshippers. While some students stayed in local hotels, others bunked in the gyms of local high schools and Nicholls State University in Thibodaux.
Courtney Overholt, 18, Sylvia McMillan and Christine Kubeskie, both 17, traveled from Houston in order to attend the conference.
While Overholt and McMillan attended a Steubenville conference in Missouri last year, it was Kubeskies first time.
I like it. Its fun, Kubeskie said. It connects yourself back with the Lord.
With an agenda packed full of events including workshops, talks and live music focusing on praise and worship is the highlight of the conference, all three agreed.
Thats the best part, McMillan said. Its when everyone really gets hyped.
Speakers for the conference include Bishop Sam Jacobs, the Rev. Dave Pivonka, the Rev. Jose Robles Sanchez, Paul George, Gretchen George, Charlie Cantrell, Kristen Harakal and entertainment by Righteous B and Kelly Pease.
An 11 a.m. Mass today led by Jacobs will end the weekends festivities, Weeks said. The Mass is open to the public, but she urged outside attendees to get to the Civic Center by 10:30 in order to sign in at the front.
Next year, Steubenville on the Bayou will return to Lafourche from June 27 to 29 at the Thibodaux Civic Center, Weeks said.

Queer Town: No Time For Gay Losers
On Monday, California Secretary of State Debra Bowen officially certified the anti-gay marriage ballot measure. If passed, the initiative would overturn last month's California Supreme Court ruling--which legalized same sex marriage--and insert one sentence into the state constitution. It would read, "Only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California."
Voters will now have the final say on gay marriage in November. Gay rights activists have already been gearing up for the fight, particularly the coalition group Equality For All. So far, the umbrella organization touts big time gay and civil rights credentials, with the Human Rights Campaign, the ACLU, Lambda Legal, the LA Gay & Lesbian Center, the California NAACP, and others joining forces to do battle. Labor unions and groups of that ilk are glaringly absent from the Equality For All roster.
Over the years, gay activists have lost nearly every fight to stop gay marriage bans. One of the few successes happened in Arizona in 2006, where a gay Republican and former Army lieutenant, Steve May, led a victorious battle against a same sex marriage ban. At the time, pundits pointed out that May ran a tightly organized campaign that sought broad support, ranging from socially moderate Republicans to liberal Democrats. In this increasingly post-partisan climate, which has helped the politically astute Senator Barack Obama defeat two Clintons, Equality For All honchos should probably seek some pointers from Obama's campaign manager David Plouffe...and track down Steve May's phone number.
Right now, Equality For All seems to be rolling out a decidedly partisan message. On its web site, for example, the coalition repeatedly cites "extremists" and the "right-wing" as the enemy. (The Human Rights Campaign also sends out emails seeking donations with references to "our right-wing opponents.") These are political buzz words that will undoubtedly turn off Republican voters, much in the same way Democrats see red whenever Republicans disparagingly say "liberal," and the gays cannot afford to needlessly offend anyone--no matter what the current polls say. In addition, such heated rhetoric may make it harder for Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger to hit the campaign trail and reach out to his fellow Republicans, and Independents could be turned off by what appears to be more partisan bickering.

All in all, the fiery language suggests political amateurs or the politically tone deaf are currently running the show for the gays. Even worse, veterans of past gay marriage defeats may be at the helm. It'll be interesting to see who will the lead the charge against the ballot measure, and how they will handle it. In the meantime, gays should remember the immortal words, somewhat paraphrased, of the late, great Freddie Mercury: This is no time for losers.

Would it be possible for future releases to use wp_mail() to send the emails instead of the php function mail()?

High employee turnover rates among multinational companies (MNCs) in Asia have become an organisational issue, which cannot be sufficiently addressed at the individual level. In this paper, we examine the issue of employee turnover at the organisational level. A group of organisational variables (e.g., training, size, age, industry, percentage of expatriate managers and headquarters' national base) were tested, using a sample of 529 MNCs in six Asian countries. The standard multiple regressions show that training, size, the length of operation in local subsidiary and nature of industry are significantly related to turnover. An effect of the percentage of expatriate managers present in the local subsidiary on employee turnover appears to be moderate. These results fill a research gap by identifying organisational variables (as opposed to individual characteristics) and contribute to better explanation of employee turnover at firm level. Implications to MNCs in the greater Chinese region and Asia are discussed.

Hi. I've successfully configured my DreamObjects key and secret (my buckets show up) but my backups are not appearing. I can kick them off and the next scheduled backup properly increments to the next scheduled date, but no backups appear. They're not in the "Backups" section of my wordpress admin panel nor in my Dreamhost panel.
Really hoping I just did something simple incorrectly. If it works, this will be a great plugin.

I'm having some problems with a user's Internet Explorer. It looks like it isn't loading CSS for sites properly.
For example here on Super User the front page seems to have loaded the fonts correctly, but has not loaded any of the background images a defined in the CSS hosted at
sstatic.net, and the question / answer scores are in little boxes.
And on
guardian.co.uk the Guardian logo is loaded fine from
static.guim.co.uk (as is defined in the HTML directly, not in the site's CSS file). But the menu bar is not formatted like defined in the CSS from that same
static.guim.co.uk domain: no grey background, no coloured font, different font.
All images seem to be fine when loading them directly. As far as I can see there is no proxy setup for IE. All renders fine in Google Chrome.
Windows is fully up to date. Malwarebytes and Norton don't report any spyware problems. Resetting IE settings doesn't fix the problems. Safe Mode doesn't improve anything.
Any suggestions? Not using IE isn't a solution for this particular user.

You're probably thinking this won't be very good. WEll, honestly, that's what I said to my husband while he was making it. "Are you kidding me? " That would be what I said. This is now y Favorite Dinner for comfort foods of all time hands down!! Love the North End.....
A hearty dish with a great little kick. Used a blend of mild and hot pickled peppers with a little juice from each jar. Like any good dish, this was even better the next day. Thanks, Lorac, for another fine meal.
