Awesome New Search Tool
I found this search tool completely by accident last week. Middlespot is geared to researchers and functions in a way that is very different from Google. First, it organizes my past searches so that I can see them listed out every time I go to website. Then, it shows the search results two ways, as a list on the left and screen grabs on the right.
But perhaps my favorite feature is the Workpad. It saves the links from my search that I select, allows me to add additional links that I already know, and make comments on what I place in the workpad. That way, I can note what it was that I liked about the link. I find when I typically bookmark items, I sometimes forget why I thought I wanted to go back to them. The notes really help me track what I liked.
Check it out and let me know if you convert from Google!

MapMechanics' intuitive new allmapdata web resource puts users in control
A major new resource and online store called allmapdata.com has been launched for organisations researching and purchasing digital map data, postcodes and related information such as business data and demographic data.
Using the new web site, people researching and procuring the data can take advantage of a logical, accessible and user-friendly interface to read about, view, compare and contrast a massive range of products (thousands of individual data sets) from dozens of suppliers covering the UK and the rest of the world – and they can do all this through a neat, uncluttered and intuitive interface that significantly reduces the potential complexity of the task.
As it is fully transactional web site, users can then progress right through to the point of ordering and paying for their products online. These include map data from famous names such as AA, Ordnance Survey and NAVTEQ, and a wide range of data products from leading suppliers in the UK and around the world.
Behind the project is MapMechanics, one of Britain's longest-established specialists in digital map data and geographic information systems. Having supplied mapping products for many years, the company decided to invest in a resource that would cut through the challenges of presenting complex data accessibly, and would put users squarely in control of the search, review and purchase process.
The task of navigating through this potentially complex environment has been made strikingly straightforward. By grouping products and subject areas logically, the allmapdata web interface leads users as quickly as possible to the products they want – providing exactly the right amount of detail at each step of the process.
Even though this is such a wide-ranging field, products are grouped under just seven logical top-level headings – road and street maps; navigation and speeds; postcode points and geocoders; boundary data; demographics and business, gazetteers; and aerial, 3D and satellite mapping.
Each heading then presents data consistently by world region, and within each region by category, data type, country, local region, scale and brand or supplier.
Whilst avoiding intrusive technology, the allmapdata site quietly harnesses advanced web techniques such as AJAX to deliver data cleanly without overwhelming its users. For instance, there is a built-in price converter, which will display the price of any product on demand in pounds sterling, euros or US dollars. Once the user selects a different currency, it remembers the choice until it is changed again. The price calculator also updates the figure instantly for each chosen product according to which multi-user option is selected.
Another simple but useful feature is the site's ability to remember how many search results each user wants per page.
Users can also add individual products to a "saved" list and return to them later, and can add products they have compared directly to this list. Unusually, they can even save freeform comments against each saved product – notes such as "This map looks like the best for our needs, but check out the detailed features" or "John – I have included five-user and ten-user options as I wasn't sure how many your department needs".
As well as being able to see their own recently-viewed products, users can also call up a list of commonly-used search terms; the bolder the heading, the more often it has been searched on.
Not only does the site list products and features, it also offers informative commentary alongside many products, providing invaluable background details on what the product includes and what it is typically used for.
Many of the products are illustrated, and popup pictures allow users to view images in more detail. The amount of enlargement varies subtly with context; for instance, in multi-product listings a modest-sized view pops up automatically when the mouse hovers over a picture, while in single-product view, users can click to see a much larger image.
The new web site was built in-house by MapMechanics'

Thanks Bev, we really enjoyed this! It was such a treat to have fresh baked bread in the house. With only two of us here I only wish it would have stayed fresh until we were able to get all the way through it. I loved how easy this was with my bread machine too. It didn't look as elegant as the picture here but I am sure it was just as good. I am looking through your other bread machine recipes for this week. Thanks again!
I made this recipe last week and Iam making again this week. Do I have say anything else? Everyone loved it. Thanks for posting.
This came out with a nice crust and a delicately soft inside - the bread equivalant of angel food cake. I don't have a breadmachine so I had to add a few directions for it to be a more traditional non-breadmachine recipe. I proofed the active dry yeast in warm water with 1 teaspoon of the total 3 tablespoons of sugar in the warm water. Then I mixed the other dry ingredients and added in the butter (melted) and yeast mixture. Mixed it in my kitchenaid and added in more flour as needed to get a slightly not-sticky dough, then mixed in the vanilla extract, lemon zest, raisins and almonds. Left it covered in an oiled bowl to rise once, punched it down then shaped it. When you're shaping this into a ring to go into the mould, make sure you have an even "log" shape or else you'll get a lopsided kugelhopf like mine! I think my kugelhopf pan is smaller than a normal bundt pan by quite a lot so it only needed 20 minutes at 190C. This is good with tea or coffee in the afternoon but don't be surprised if you feel the need to cut larger slices - it is a very light textured, easy eating bread.

Pumpkins in Many Languages
While pumpkins originated in America, the word has it's "roots" in the french word "pompion" of "pompon", the Greek word "pepon" and Latin "Pepon". In 1584, Jacques Cartier was doing a little exploring along the area of the Saint Lawerence River and happened upon the pumpkin, hence it's French roots.

I am using the Skype API, which sends back a message everytime it receives one. I am not sure if this really is what is causing it, but it's the closest I can get: When I send too many messages, the COM control can't handle all the replies, which causes it to crash the whole app. That happens when I use a
for loop.
I am using Threads to do the job, so my program won't hang. I know I can do
Sleep(); in the thread, and will (should) not make the whole program sleep. The problem is though, that my COM control will be sleeping aswell, so it still wont be able to process whatever it needs, so it can keep up again.
So, the question is: How can I pause the routine without pausing the whole thread, so that the replies can be processed by my COM object, without overloading?

cobalt or speed 400?
Hi everyone...
I am rather confused......most of the planes i have are driven by Speed 400 6volts motor, and they are cheap to come by. Recently my LHS started carrying the Promaxx Cobalts..and i am tempted to buy some to try out, but it seems that in every article or postings i read, they require more cells, somewhere in the figure of 10 cells. hey that is no problem if i am getting 10 cells worth of power, but looking at charts, the motor only dish out nothing more than 60% efficiency, that isn't a lot compared to the relatively much cheaper Speed 400s....in short, if i go cobalt, i need to buy bigger cell packs, pay more for the motors, and change brushes, for only a very marginal power increase! Help me understand the rationailty of paying for Cobalts, when Speeds are just that little less better, on the other hand, i am sold on brushless....just waiting for my skills to get better and then i will be more comfortable with my investment!
thanks all for commenting...
From experience, it's my opinion that these little cobalts are far more powerful than the S400 6v units, and on the same cellcount too!
The downside (there always has to be one, doesn't there?) is that the usual 500/600 size cells just wont deliver the amperage that these motors need to perform properly. So then we need to carry the extra weight/bulk of an 8x800AR or CP1300 pack, in order to deliver the 18-22 amps that these motors pull.
Sooo...then we also need an ESC capable of dealing with this current....
Oh yeah, you'll need bigger props too - the Aeronaut 6.5x4 is a good match for a 4014 on 8 cells.
Conclusion? From a Zagi point of view? It's not just a simple motor swop, but the difference in performance is quite astounding!
mmmmm..so Tim
more current, larger cells, and bigger prop for MORE power but less duration? or would it be like brushless set up where i can throttle back and get the same power as Speed 400s, and thus fly longer? that would also be because Cobalt have better efficiency..?? right? but on charts seen on SE modeler magazine, the best eff is about 60% and that is only 10% more than the normal Speed 400s.......correct if i am wrong...alternatively, i could use my same 600aes cells and save up for brushless, use the same prop and run on lower current!

Having owned Speed 400s, a brushless Mega 22/10/6 and a Promaxx Cobalt 4014- let me make the following observations.
1) Tim is quite right. Think about overall power systems. The Speed 400 on an 8 cell 600AE pack is a very different overall system than either the Promaxx cobalt or Mega brushless on a 7 cell CP 1300 pack (effectively the next battery upgrade.) Only the Hacker motor can deliver more on the 8 cell 600AE pack in practical terms, and it sounds like that's out of budget.
If you have decided that you need a significant power increase from a Speed 400 system and can tolerate the additional 3+ ounces in power systems, then you have two choices-the Promaxx cobalt or the Mega brushless.
2) The brushless motor is much more rugged and doesn't need maintenance. If you dork, it's easy to bend the shaft on the Promaxx motor- I know this firsthand.
3) The brushless and cobalt have similar power levels in the same airframe using the same batteries. (A 7 cell CP 1300 pack)but some brushless motors can swing a larger prop.
4) When you add up the total cost of the power system, motor, mounts, ESCs, batteries etc. the brushless is maybe 25% more expensive than the cobalt.
I have 30-40 flights on my Pico Jet combat with a 4014. The performance is MUCH better then the P480 that came stock. I have tried a bunch of diffrent props ranging in size from a 5x5 to a 8X4 APC E-prop. When I first got the motor and tried the 5X5 I checked the AMP draw and the RPM. Much to my amazment the motor turned the prop at just about the same speed as the P480 with a significant increase in AMP draw. After doing a little reading I relized this motor needs more prop. I thin found a 7X3.5 COX prop at the LHS and tried that. Vertical was MUCH better but the speed was about the same. I ordered a couple of props from APC in the 6" range with more pitch to see if I could speed the PJC up a bit. Well they where all pulling around 25 AMPS and I though that was a bit much for this motor. I also had a the 8X4 E-prop which I tried which was great in the vertical but pulling 28+ AMPS static. Fun for me but not the motor. I just got a CAM 5.5X5.5 which I have tested and has shown around 23 AMPS static but I have not flown it yet. I will let you know after the weekend. All these test where done with 8X800ar's. These are really the smallest cells you can use though I have flown the 4014 on 8X1600 Nimh RS cells. you can not keep the throttle punched with these cells but after launch if you throttle back she will stay up for 9+ mins. I really hope that the 5.5X5.5 works since I am hoping to use two in my Twinjet and I want it to go fast . Sorry for being long winded but I have spent a fair amount of time playing with this motor. Hope this info helps.
THat is exactly what i mean, more money for Cobalt, higher amperage draw which means less duration, and SAME RPM. Larger prop is allowed, so dare i say that the Cobalts are much better for gearboxes and larger props, not for speed like pylon. Therefore it would be more efficient for me to buy 4 promaxx cobalts 4014 and plug it into my Cargo, and get better thrust, longer duration if i throttle back, using the same cell count of 8, then with the equipped Speed 400 motors? As for pylon or the twinJet, brushless is the way to go yah?
thanks all for listening!!
It depends on what you want to do. If you want to spin a 4.75X4.75 really fast then use the 4011 motor. I am thinking that I should have really gone with a 13 turn motor since I am looking for more speed then vertical. I will let you know about the 5.5X5.5. There is a HUGE diffrence in performance over a P480 though it comes at a cost of less duration.
You'll be amazed at how fast the Cargo flys just with the stock 400 6v motors(I've added 7+oz of lead to the nose and it still climbs like a homesick angel, although it is easier to fly level. Next is to add an additional 1/16" of downthrust to all the motors. The problem really lies in the way the wing is to far fwd. It needs to go back approx 1/2", I'm guessing, to balance that large heavy tail.)
thanks all for replying...
still not convince about the 'value' of Cobalts. it would seem that if a system was started off with CObalt, meaning more cells, high capacity and larger ESC, i would get more power compared to a measly Speed 400s.
Promaxx cobalt = 70
BAtteries 10xCP1300 = 35
New C50 ESC = 50
Total of $155
Hacker brushless B20 S for 90
ESC (Jeti 18-3P) for 70
Total $ 180
mmmm....for another 25 dollars i get to use back my old cells but get MUCH better efficiency and duration!!!!
thanks Dorme for sharing with me about the mod you did to your Cargo....any pics??? i still haven't decide on how to paint my Cargo and should i build it first or glass it and paint it first before building it. 7 oz weight in front!!! whoa...
...i spoke to Sean, the proprietor @ Aero-Model (US distributor for Hacker brushless motors) about my PJC w/MPI Speed 400 Cobalt vs. Hacker B20 setup...
...he told me that he had seen the Pico Jet fly with both and that i would have a hard time beating the performance i was getting with the 13 turn MPI Cobalt - he said the PJC has too much drag to run the Hacker B20 direct drive...and that it was more for pylon type designs...
...to really beat the performance with a Hacker, he said i would have to go with the B40 direct drive with 8-CP1700's - which would add 5 to 5.5 oz. to my PJC AUW...

MPI cobalt price in SGP
Hi Muah
Are you sure the price of that MPI cobalt is $70. I believe it should be about $52 after conversion($95 SGD)
The great planes C50 esc should be less than that. I just bought one C20 for only $24($44 SGD). The C50 should cost no more than $50 bucks based on the C20 estimation.
Not sure about the batt price.
So you now have about additional 20-30 dollars differences. I believe the same shop selling the Promaxx also carried the Kontronik brushless, but a bit stiff(about $550 SGD full set).
hi Magna...
i do believe you travel to Singapore often then to buy stuff yah? i was just comparing prices that i found in the e-flight magazines advertisements...i know they are cheaper here in singapore but still i just cannot justify the costs and hasssles of going cobalts, when i could just save up longer, wait longer and get a brushless set-up and forget about it for a long time....what do you think? and i believe i am tempted to get a Kontronic set up as they are only about SIN$330 here, about US$183...not too bad would you say? do you have any experiences with Promaxx cobalts?

Well you do need to get the brushless esc which will cost you another $200 SGD?
All in I was told abour $550 SGD.
OK on the Promaxx cobalt vs the Jeti 30/3. I tested it with my buddy. He is using the Jeti 30/3 with 12x7, and I'm on Promaxx 2006 with 12x7. He is using 8 2400 mah cell, and mine on 9 2000mah cell. He got about 7700 rpm, and mine about 6700 rpm. The jeti run direct and mine is geared 2.7:1. However, he is running about 27 amp while mine is about 23 amp given the run time over batt amp when the esc cut off.
The brushless will have better eff % than the cobalt but with the gearbox, I'm not too bad. I advanced the timing and got about 7000 rpm. This is with the batt not that fully charged. So the amp may have reached 27 amp and, technically, I would have about 220 watt on the prop after minus some 20-25% for losses. With 4 lbs AUW, its about 55w/lb. I can run it up to 35 amp if I need to but that will be over kill.
So I will more run time given the lower amp drawn so I may match his total flying time. Beside his glider is about 6 lbs.
I will go to brushless later this year, but the promax should satisfy my need. I only need it for climb and then off for soaring/thermalling. The Jeti brushless is one of the best you can get for its price. Cost about 170 Euros, which is about $280-290 SGD. This is with controller.

In 2013, the Labor Department set a hiring goal for federal contractors that 7 percent of each job group in their workforces should be made up of qualified people with disabilities.

US DOL to Federal Contractors: "The Waiting Period Is Over" To Hire People with Disabilities
Since quotas are not legal, Carol Glazer, President of the National Organization on Disability, said that in order for federal contractors to move toward attaining the 7 percent goal they must be very aware of what they are doing and how they are doing it. Glazer suggests utilizing a system to track applicants and hires with disabilities. "You have to keep that on file," said Glazer. "You have to assess your practices to see how you're doing.

Fate, hard work pay off to make Texas pro a two-time EverStart winner
JASPER, Texas - The last time pro angler Jim Tutt won an EverStart Series event, Charles Carlile won the Co-angler Division the same day. That was almost three years ago at the 1999 Central Division tourney on Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri.
So Saturday at the Jasper Wal-Mart, Tutt waited offstage with the other pros to weigh in his fish and he watched as Carlile won the Co-angler Division in front of him - again. Right then Tutt knew that somehow the fishing gods were on his side this week.
"When things get lined up just right and everything just goes your way, that's what I'm talking about, man!" he said.
Tutt walked up and placed five bass on the scale that weighed a collective 20 pounds, 11 ounces to win the Pro Division and $50,000 in cash and prizes in Saturday's final round of the first EverStart Series Central Division tournament of the year. He defeated Dicky Newberry of Houston, Texas, who placed second (worth $10,000) with five bass weighing 17 pounds, 10 ounces.
It was the second EverStart win for the pro from nearby Longview, Texas, and it was just reward for an angler who has struggled for a year-and-a-half on the tournament circuit. In fact, it was a struggle that began with his last showdown against his friend Newberry.
A difficult stretch
Back up to October 2000. It was the Red Man (now BFL) Regional at Lake Ouachita in Arkansas. Tutt had weighed in a good five-bass stringer worth 15 pounds, 5 ounces and looked headed toward victory. Then Newberry came up at the end with a 15-11 catch and beat him by 6 ounces.
"I was happy for Dicky, but it was a blow," Tutt said.
And the narrow defeat seemed to spark a low point in his career. The next season, 2001, Tutt - who has no fewer then 18 top-10 appearances and four wins in BFL, EverStart and FLW tournaments - didn't make a single final-round cut on any FLW Outdoors circuit.
"Last year was my worst year in five years," he said. Motor problems in key tournaments, lost fish and that runner-up finish at Ouachita dogged him the entire season. "It was messing with my head and made me lose some of my confidence."
Back on top
This year Tutt has rebounded with a vengeance. Last month at the Lake Okeechobee, Fla., FLW Tour event he made the final cut and finished in eighth place. He took positive mojo away from that event and came home to Sam Rayburn this week with a purpose.
"I'm feeling great, man. I don't want to sound cocky, but I've been working really hard," he said yesterday after leading the semifinal round. And possibly what he means is that it was no accident that he won this tournament.
Tutt fished the same spot all four days at Rayburn. It's a big area at mid-lake with a few key pockets along the grass line that he scouted in practice and protected as best he could throughout the tournament. Using the same ¾-ounce orange Rat-L-Trap all week, he worked slowly and deliberately in about 5 to 8 feet of water. His key spots yielded one large fish after another at a time when many anglers had trouble catching fish just big enough to keep.
"There's just a lot of fish in this area," Tutt said. "It took me about an hour-and-a-half to make my circuit (up and down the bank) and by the time I came back around the fish would be refreshed. The wind didn't hurt my fish and the sun didn't make a difference."
By 10:45 this morning he had his limit, and he culled two fish later on. Coming in for weigh-in, he knew he had another good sack of bass - he estimated it at around 17 pounds - but he wasn't sure it was enough to win.
"I lost one about 4 pounds," he said. "I wanted a 10-pounder so bad."
As it turned out, he short-changed his own fish weight because he didn't have time to weigh one of the bigger ones in his boat. By the time he came up, stood next to the leader at the time, Newberry, and weighed in the only stringer over 20 pounds today, the rest became history.
"I'm so nervous I can hardly talk," Tutt said afterward. "But I got him this year."
Rounding out the top five finishers in the Pro Division were David Curtis (3rd place, $9,000) of Trinity, Texas with two bass weighing 14 pounds, 12 ounces - including one that weighed a massive 9-6; Jeff Ransom (4th place, $8,000) of Muldrow, Okla., with three bass weighing 11-15; and Jeremiah Kindy (5th place, $7,500) of Benton, Ark., with five bass weighing 11-2.
The next EverStart Series event is the March 20-23 Eastern Division tournament on the big-bass waters of Lake Eufaula, Ala. The next Central Division tournament will be held April 3-6 at Grand Lake, Okla.

Delicious. I used about 4C nectarines, 2 plums, raspberries and blackberries and lemon for the citrus. I agree with CARLD about the pan size, but I may have had slightly more than 8 C fruit.
8 cups of fruit in a 1.5 quart dish, huh? I baked mine in a 3 quart dish--the topping was a little patchy, but it actually shortened the cooking time (50 minutes) and nothing bubbled out over the edges.
Excellent, easy, delicious. Made it as written the first time, got great reviews, the second time I made changes, still got great reviews. Using cherries is important, both for color and flavor. For the crisp eventually each person will decide how much butter to and sugar to use but the basic recipe is right on. I did not use cinnamon b/c this time of year the fruit is so delicious and fresh, it is important to get the fruit flavor as dominant as possible. A Keeper.

Forbidden Secrets: Alien Town reviewed by LynxMinx
This was a very interesting game. Different sort of story, scary but without RATS ( don't know if they are in the bonus chapter; hope not)! Had a journal, good hint system and strategy guide. The graphics were dreary but good. It was a lengthy game, plus the bonus chapter. The inventory was labeled and there was a teleport map with clearly marked objectives. Believe me, you needed that map! There were different types of HO scenes, but not an overabundance. Lots of different and fun puzzles and mini-games!
The reason I took off a star was because the game had some glitches, like freezing up, kicking me out, but I could still play it. Also, it was very hard on the eyes, especially when searching for the beyond objects. In certain mini-games, when you needed to use a diagram, it was too small to make it out.
However, all in all, a very good game! BigFish, you and Alawar make a formidable team! Their games lately have far surpassed ERS and Elephant! Just work out the kinks, and next time can we have another gorgeous game? Definitely would like a sequel, with improvements to make it easier on your eyes!
The game itself, and the storyline are great. The big problems that make this game so frustrating is that the Spaces between each scene are way too long. It really detracts from the game when every time you switch scenes it takes over 3 seconds, which doesn't sound like much, but it really gets in the way of the game. My other major complaint would be that finding the "sweet spot" to use items or place items is too finite. It takes several tries when using any tools or even playing the mini games to get an object placed or chosen. It makes it too easy to miss things that are important later in the game. The mini games are fun and challenging, the graphics and sound are good. I'm still fairly close to the beginning of the story, but it seems to be an original, good story. Looking forward to continuing the game.
So Far So Good.
The first thing that caught my attention about this game is it that it is actually developed by Alawar Entertainment (and of course published by Big Fish). I've always liked Alawar games so it's a no brainer for me.
This game does have voice overs which to me make these games much more enjoyable. Plus,
I like that moving things from your inventory is smooth (as it should be). It's not the "click and place" type of action as seen on some games. Lastly, it doesn't require double clicking in every single scene to navigate and it doesn't have a "back button which is one of those things that tend to annoy me.

Informative, Instructional, and Inspiring!
Oct. 5 2003
This review is from:
Blues & Rock Harmonica Made Easy!: Compact Reference Library (Paperback)
... Man, if you want to learn how to play harmonica in no time, just get this book. Play along with it on every page as you read through it. Just do what David Harp says, and you will be playing blues and rock on your harp quickly - and you will feel good about what you're doing. This is a REAL EASY book to understand and follow. It's like David is right there talking to you!
... As he says on page 10: "Don't get discouraged, ever. If you're a total beginner and feel a bit clumsy and boggled, just relax, and keep the harmonica in your mouth as you read. You'll get it! If you're a more experienced non-blues or rock player who feels "stuck," just remember that all players get into ruts, and a little instruction is a fine way to climb back out."
... Trust me, you don't need to know ANYTHING about music or harmonicas to be able to benefit from reading this book. It is EXCELLENT! It is so easy and simple! It's a shame more people do not teach what they know the way David does. I wish I had a person like David teaching me MATH in this same way when I was a kid. I would have been an astrophysicist by now! ... YOWZA! - The Aeolian Kid

God WINKS in Mysterious Ways!
Sept. 10 2003
This review is from:
When GOD Winks: How the Power of Coincidence Guides Your Life (Hardcover)
... Some people claim that God talks to them. This is true of spiritual believers from various faiths. Many Christians often speak of the fact that the Lord spoke to them in one way or another. In "the olden days," it seemed that God spoke in very dramatic and profound ways - like through a burning bush! Nowadays, it seems like we have to be ready and open to pick up on these little "winks." Whatever.
... Anyone who has read the book of SYNCHRONICITY by Carl Jung is aware of the profound impact that "coincidences" and "non-causal, time-related-activities" have on the human psyche. They are like emotional billboards screaming: "LOOK AT THIS!!!" ... These winks are no ordinary bats of the eyelids. They are often deep and life-changing experiences. The author expounds on them very eloquently. His life was changed by "god winks."
... If you, too, have ever had the unsettling experience that you were being given a message from God through some sort of "funny coincidence" of some kind or another and you would like to learn more about these kind of occurrences, then read this book. Squire Rushnell does a fine job at explaining it all in simple language without a lot of the new age mumbo jumbo that seems to haunt books about topics such as this one. It's an easy and inspiring read - and it just might make you feel better about that last deja-vu you had while you were going about your daily routine! ... YOWZA! - The Aeolian Kid

He's Back - and with all The Facts that Shame the Elite!
Sept. 8 2003
This review is from:
Theyve Stolen Our Country And Its Time To Take It Back (Hardcover)
... God bless Jim Hightower's courageous heart! He encourages the rest of us to pick up our crosses and start walking down the righteous path of confronting the enemy in the face. "BEGONE, YE DOUR-FACED DEMONS!" as Art Kleps once wrote. Now, Hightower is no fool. He walks his talk with the best of them. If anyone knows just how much we working folks are getting the shaft, it is good old Jim. His list of ENVIRONMENTAL sins, alone, that have been commited by this administration is absolutely startling!!
... Just check this out from pages 94 and 95: ... "HSD to the rescue! As the Homeland law was being written, corporate lobbyists suddenly got patriotic, warning that terrorists could benefit by knowing such "critical infrastructure" information as what chemicals a plant is using or producing. Therefore, a provision was slipped into the law prohibiting all agencies of government from releasing any such information that a corporation gives to HSD. Cute. Now any corporate lawyer who can spell L-O-O-P-H-O-L-E has an out from public disclosure - anything the corporation wants to hide can be sent to HSD and safely tucked out of sight. ... Bonus Gift: This HSD tuck-away also means that "critical infrastructure" information about a corporation's pollution, explosions, and other unpleasantness can't be dislodged for use in civil lawsuits that workers, neighbors, environmentalists, governments, or anyone else brings against the corporation. So why go to the expense of preventing pollution and safety problems when you can just hide them in HSD?"
... You know, in the Greek Orthodox Church, when people recite the OUR FATHER Christian prayer, they end it with: "and deliver us from the PONIROO," which does not mean "evil" - but SLYNESS, a kind of WICKED, sneaky intelligence that is selfish and evil, not noble and selfless. Indeed! All of the information Jim includes in this book will help to keep us from having the wool pulled over our eyes by the wicked, selfish, sly sharks who only care about their own crooked ways in order to satisfy their greedy desires through continuing to stay in power and glorifying themselves, not God or the common good. This current Rulership of Thieves ( "Kleptocracia" in Greek) does not exemplify how "the other half lives." It's nowhere near as large as HALF! It's as small as a fraction of ONE percent, and maybe FIVE percent of our population at the most. Anyone who does not belong to this elite club of 5 percent and votes to keep them in power is committing economic suicide! ... Right-On, Jim! - The Aeolian Kid

Practicing Peripatetic Theosis Ecstatically!
Aug. 24 2003
This review is from:
Walking The Bible (Paperback)
... I wish there were a book like this for EVERY religion! What a wonderful way to learn about religion in general, and the Bible in particular. Someone from every faith should write a similar book about their particular spiritual path. It would be great to have a "Walking the Vedas," or "Walking the Sutras," or "Walking the Koran," or "Walking the Tao," or even "Walking with The Great Spirit." How about "Walking with Aristotle, Heraclitus, Pythagoras, Socrates, and Zeno of Elea?" Now, that would be something! Bruce Feiler may have started a great trend here!
... I found this book to be fascinating. It brings the first five books of the Bible - what Hebrew people refer to as The Torah - alive and relevant to the reader. It's like a chronological trek through biblical time; like the ultimate geography lesson in relation to the Hebrew, Christian, and Muslim God. Indeed, it brings back to life the very act of practicing peripatetic theosis ecstatically! Socrates and Aristotle would be proud. Bruce (the author) and his buddy Avner (his archaeological guide) go on a journey together that takes us all along for the ride, and we all learn more about the people and places of the Bible along the way. I simply could NOT put this book down. Once you pick it up, it grabs you like a magnet and it's hard to let go of it.
... Here's an example of an echange, from page 240, between the author and a young monk named Anastasis at Saint Catherine's monastery at Mount Sinai in the Middle East: "And what about praying here?" I said. "Do you feel closer to Moses because you live here." "It feels a little bit strange, " he said. "Because when Moses met God, he did it on this spot. 'This is holy ground,' God said. The ground is much more important than the bush." "So, do you feel closer to God, too?" "No," he said. "Wherever you are, if you are close to God, you are close. If you are far away, you are far away. It doesn't matter where you live. It matters what you feel."
... Page after page after page, this book is filled with inspiring and insightful reflections on the stories in the Bible and how they are brought to life in our own lives. It is a wonderful ecumenical odyssey, and a real joy to read. ... Now, who will be inspired to write: "Walking with Shamen?" ... YOWZA! - The Aeolian Kid

Good Advice for Finding Work and Getting Jobs
July 20 2003
This review is from:
Work It!: How to Get Ahead, Save Your Ass, and Land a Job in Any Economy (Paperback)
... Allison Hemming has written a very good book packed with practical advice for finding work and getting jobs. She's an expert at dealing with the grown-up world of work. One problem I have with this book is that it appears to be very heavily slanted to getting a certain kind of work - "corporate identity" types of jobs in particular - without really dealing with the great, big, whole world of work available out there. "Office Job" hunters will love this book. The problem is that not everyone is cut-out for an office job. The other problem I have with this book is that the print is very small - and even smaller in the highlighted boxes with the gray background. It is very difficult to read at times. Nevertheless, reading this book will help anyone in their job search, if only because of all of the helpful web sites mentioned.
... For those cautious souls uncertain about making a change or taking a leap, the advice given on pages 275 to 279 is encouraging: "The only thing scarier than living with your parents is relocating to a city where you don't know a soul. But if your heart is set on an industry that tends to be centered in one or two specific cities (like Washington, D.C. for the federal government, New York or Los Angeles for entertainment, or the San Francisco Bay Area for technology), you could be looking at pulling up stakes. So how exactly do you conduct a long-distance job search while you're still at college or stuck in your hometown living with your parents? Do you move to the city right off the bat, or do you wait until you land a job and then go? Quite simply, it depends. The biggest consideration is that four-letter word: c-a-s-h. ... To Move or Not to Move. That's the million-dollar question. If you can swing it financially and you're sure of where you want to go, it probably makes sense to just do it, even if there's no job waiting for you in your new city. Interviewers will feel more confident that you're for real if you have a local address than if you're just in town to check things out. Besides, having no money and no job will motivate you in ways you can't imagine."
... As the NIKE ad says: "Just Do It!" ... From internet searches, to networking, to resume writing, to correspondence, to interviewing, to unemployment benefits, to career counseling, to budgeting one's money - it's all here in this helpful book. Read it, and then WORK IT! ... YOWZA! - The Aeolian Kid

Stop Feeling Guilty About Voting For Ralph Nader!
July 6 2003
This review is from:
Stupid White Men (Hardcover)
... I finally read this very funny book by Michael Moore, and I'm glad I did; because for the first time in over a couple of years I can say I have stopped feeling guilty for having voted for Ralph Nader for President in the 2000 election. ... Why?
... It's because of an extremely valid point - among many throughout this politically inspiring book - that Michael Moore makes on page 239. He says: "I could tell him that because Ralph Nader was on the ballot in the state of Washington, the majority of those 101,906 citizens who voted for Nader also voted for the Democrat for U.S. Senate. Thanks to these Nader voters, Maria Cantwell became Washington's new senator by only 2,229 votes. If you're going to blame Nader for taking votes from Gore in Florida, then you must also give credit to Nader for bringing thousands of new voters to the polls who made the difference for Cantwell - thus allowing the Democrats to force a 50-50 tie in the Senate. Then, once there was a tie, one senator from Vermont realized he suddenly had a lot of power - and used it to turn the Senate over to the Democrats by leaving the Republican Party. None of that could have happened without Nader." ... An excellent point!
... If, like a lot of us, you're still very angry about what happened during the presidential election of 2000, and you'd like to get a better handle on how it all went down, reading this book will clear your head of a lot of the dust that still may not have settled there. Also, it will definitely inspire you to keep on fighting the good fight so that the next election does not turn into the disaster that the last one did. Michael Moore's political inspiration is contagious! ... YOWZA! - The Aeolian Kid

This review is from:
Them: Adventures with Extremists (Paperback)
... If this book is never made into a Hollywood movie, it will be a very sad thing! ... Why? ... It's because this book is VERY funny - and we all NEED a good dose of what's funny right now. I'm not kidding. I'm very serious. Neither am I making fun of this EXCELLENT book or downplaying the serious intent of its basic thrust: exposing the common, bumbling, humorous humanity of all of these "bad guys" and "boogymen" out there that run rampant in the world of conspiracy theorists. Jon Ronson should be given both the Johnny Carson medal for Humor (if there is one!) as well as the Sherlock Holmes medal for Private Investigation (if there is one) - because he scores a perfect 4.0 on both counts! This book is GREAT!
... WHY is this book GREAT? It's great because Jon Ronson actually DID what 99 percent of us out here have only been talking about. He actually penetrated into the CORE of many of these conspiracy and anti-conspiracy (depending on your point of view) groups, met with many of their leaders, and lived to write about what he learned in order to uncover many of the hidden, inner details and/or unknown attitudes and mindsets of many of the members of these various groups. You simply cannot help falling in love with this colorful cast of characters. I mean, they're all REAL PEOPLE!!! Some of these people are very powerful worldly figures, both in and out of politics, and it is no laughing matter to say that in some cases even MILLIONS of people are influenced by what some of these powerful individuals do and say. ... Jon Ronson is a VERY funny man. He's also a very brave man - and a tenacious researcher!
... Well, as Don Juan says: "Power has a way of finding power," and as my friend David says: "Money goes to money." ... Personally, I believe that power likes to control things in order to STAY in power - and that all of this has nothing to do with DEMOCRACY at all. It has to do with CONSUMERISM - and any threats to consumerism, from the left, the right, or the middle. If there is ANY group out there that does not want to PLAY BALL and go along with CONSUMERISM, then that group is a threat to global, capitalistic consumerism. This is exactly why the psychedelics are outlawed everywhere - because they are the greatest threat to consumerism in this world, as professor David Lenson of the University of Massachusetts at Amherst rightly states in his scholarly, sociological book, ON DRUGS. There is NOTHING about Islam that prevents it from being democratic if it wanted to. There is also nothing un-American about Christian separatists. What both these groups - and more - have in common is NOT a hatred for freedom or democracy. What they all have in common is a fear of LOSING our freedoms and democracy, and strong resistance to playing ball with global elite (whoever they are as the flavor of the decade!) who want nothing more than to spread the gospel of CONSUMERISM across the globe, because it makes them all richer by minimizing responsibilities and maximizing profits - at the expense of human rights, national sovereignty, and the health of the biosphere. ... THIS is the serious undertone of this book. In the interest of balance and humorous saving grace, Jon Ronson has exposed this whole mess in a way that is a real FUN read. ... BRAVO! ...

Best Democracy Money Can Buy

... "Freedom from Want and Fear" ... INDEED !!!
July 6 2003
This review is from:
Best Democracy Money Can Buy (Paperback)
... Greg Palast ends this excellent book with a little story about the medals won by his war-hero dad in World War Two. One of those medals had the following motto written on the back of it: "Freedom from Want and Fear." This same motto could suitably serve as a stand-in for one of the guiding, founding principles of our nation, as Thomas Jefferson proclaimed in The Declaration of Independence: the right to "Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness." Thomas Jefferson's famous words would, indeed, seem to encapsulate the motto on the back of Greg's dad's heroically won medal. But, what do these words mean - "Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness," and "Freedom from Want and Fear" - really? Different people read different meanings into them.
... Here's what I think Greg Palast thinks they mean: I think they mean that the freedom FROM want is just as important as the freedom to DO; that the freedom to live without FEAR is just as important as the freedom to live in LIBERTY; and that a life that is free from WANT and FEAR is a life that can more fully achieve the PURSUIT of HAPPINESS. I think they mean that "Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness" cannot be truly achieved at the EXPENSE of others, only through the free will and free cooperation of others. THIS is the difference between the truly PATRIOTIC and CONSERVATIVE interpretation of these wise words and the modern, neo-liberal, "compassionate conservative" twist and spin on these sacred words. I, myself, prefer to stick with Thomas Jefferson's meaning, thank you.
... Greg gets deep into a lot of information that never saw the light of day in the major news media of this country - and he explains why. ... Show me where the grave of Che Guevara is dug, so I can lay a flower there! Who do these multinational millionaires think they're kidding? Do they think we're all stupid? All afraid? All so apathetic and self-concerned - or totally tired and wasted from trying to make ends meet in this KLEPTOCRACY they have developed - that we have no time left to care at all about our common fate? The class war that continues in this country from before the founding of the republic and before the Demopublicans and Republicrats gained so much power over our lives during the last four Trilateral Presidencies ( Ford, Carter, Reagan-Bush, and Clinton) is a war over WHO will have the right to live a life of "Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness" - only the elite, or ALL of us. I was born in the COMMONWEALTH of Massachusetts. As far as I am concerned, that word implies that the wealth is held in COMMON, for the good of us all. After reading this book, it is quite clear that Greg Palast is a true, American Patriot who feels exactly the same way. ... YOWZA! - The Aeolian Kid

Do What You Love, The Money Will Follow: Discovering Your Right Livelihood (Paperback)
... I used to run my own natural food store at one time. I did it for over seven years. Before that, I ran someone else's for over three years. That's over ten years of doing work that one loves. There was only one problem: the money did NOT follow! If it had, I would still be running my store. ... Now, don't get me wrong. Money DID follow; just not ENOUGH money to support a family. ... So, I KNOW that what this book says is true. The question is: HOW TRUE? Also, I am aware of the fact that if my heart had been totally, 100% involved in my natural food store business alone - and NOT also involved in MUSIC - I may very well have made MORE money running my natural food store. Or, it could have simply been a chapter in my life that had run its course and it became time to move on - or, at least, time to do something else for a while in order to get a break from it before going back into it with renewed vigor. You know? Who can say for sure?
... Nevertheless, I strongly feel that the inspirational and vocational advice and stories given in this book are extremely valuable to read if one is looking for guidance and encouragement before making a career change or taking a bold step into the unknown. My recommendation: GO FOR IT!
... I really love what the author writes on page 134: "I do not remember where I heard this statement, but I have thought about it for a long time. From watching myself overcome certain unproductive attitudes and habits, and from working with many people who have either overcome similar patterns or who have such excellent work habits that they are almost assured material success, my sense is that we have a lot of control over our incomes, expenditures and livelihoods - much more control than we give ourselves credit for - and that there may indeed be a connection between our mental control and focus and our ability to make money. As long as we have a clear idea of our goals and properly use the inclinations and in-born talents that we already have, I believe that the money will follow. However, while we wait it is essential that we protect ourselves from the cultural consciousness that says we are what we earn. We certainly are not. Only the individual with a healthy, wholesome self-view will feel inwardly rich when he or she is outwardly broke. This point came home to me strongly when I was interviewing people for my first book. One of the young men that I interviewed, an environmentalist who lived on less than $$$$ per year, had so much adoration and such an ecstatic response for life that I was stirred to try to see what he had that wealthier persons lacked. Essentially, what he possessed was a peaceful, full heart, a spiritually complete nature, and an ability to see beauty all around him instead of lack."
... Enlightenment may not pay ALL the bills, but it DOES have its benefits - one being PEACE OF MIND, which is priceless. The trick is to be enlightened, to strive toward spiritual liberation, and to be at peace as well with your ability to support all of your material needs while you also pursue the work that you love to do. That work may be more than one thing, and it may also change over time - but as long as you are on a path "with heart" (as Carlos Castaneda says), I truly believe that you will be happy doing what you do. Basically, that is the essence of this book. The author, herself, walks her talk and is a living testimony to the validity of her writings and work. ... YOWZA! - The Aeolian Kid
Our Media, Not Theirs: The Democratic Struggle against Corporate Media

Hey, we all know what Jerry Mander said - right?!
April 28 2003
This review is from:
Our Media, Not Theirs: The Democratic Struggle against Corporate Media (Paperback)
... George Harrison has warned us all about the media with his very last album - BRAINWASHED. Jerry Mander warned us years ago when he wrote: FOUR ARGUMENTS FOR THE ELIMINATION OF TELEVISION. Now, Robert W. McChesney and John Nichols are warning us yet again with OUR MEDIA, NOT THEIRS. ... Read this book if you're angry enough about the media in general to begin to DO something about it, because this book does not stop at complaining about what is bad about the media; it offers us all multiple solutions to how we can actually confront the situation and create viable alternatives to this BEAST that is devouring everything in its path like a rabid Godzilla on steroids!
... This is SERIOUS business! Look what they write on pages 91 and 92: "As in the United States, a striking and important consequence of the global commercial media market has been the attack on journalism, and the reduction in its capacity to serve as the basis for an informed, participating citizenry. Let us be clear here: We are not blaming the global media system for all the flaws in journalism. Establishing a media system that fosters a freewheeling, independent, wide-ranging, and vibrant journalism and political culture is no easy matter, though it is something that all democratic societies should aspire to develop. National press systems prior to - and in conjunction with - the global commercial system were and are sometimes adequate at this job, but many were failures. Frequently, the media have been owned by wealthy individuals or firms that have clearly censored journalism to support their usually reactionary politics, as is the case in Turkey today. Both public and commercial broadcasters in many nations have often been handmaidens of the dominant political parties and interests. In places like Mexico, Peru, and Brazil the dominant commercial broadcasters have tended to be in bed with the dominant pro-business political parties, and to use their media power aggressively and shamelessly to maintain the favored parties in power. Editors and reporters from dissident media who courageously bucked the system and reported on those in power have often found themselves arrested or on the receiving end of a beating or a gunshot. These practices continue today across the world." ... Not very NICE!
... But there is hope! Read on, from pages 123 and 124: "Yet as important as this work is, there are inherent limits to what can be done with independent media, even with access to the Internet. Too often, the alternative media remain on the margins, seemingly confirming that commercial media conglomerates have become so massive because they "give the people what they want." The problem with this disconnect is that it suggests that corporate media have mastered the marketplace on the basis of their wit and wisdom. In fact, as we noted earlier, our media system is not the legitimate result of free market competition. It is the result of relentless lobbying from big-business interests that have won explicit government policies and subsidies permitting them to scrap public-interest obligations and increase commercialization and conglomeration. It is untenable to accept such massive subsidies for the wealthy, and to content ourselves with the "freedom" to forge alternatives that only occupy the margins. How , then, can we force a change in the media systems that dominate the discourse and misinform the debate? By organizing the media democracy movement to make a great leap forward."
... As Jesus said, resisting evil is not the way. Focusing on fighting fire with fire merely draws you into entangled engagement with illusory duality and conflict. We must IGNORE THEM TO DEATH! We must create a critical mass as a viable alternative that totally ECLIPSES the beast that has dominated our path to the pursuit of happiness, a fulfilling life, and true liberty. Only this way, can we find our way out of this mess - by all joining together, in spite of the powers that be, in order to build a new media that does not merely entertain or misinform but one which truly educates and enlightens our whole society and culture. ...

PAMPLONA, Spain (July 12, 2014) Three people were hospitalized after several thousand people tested their courage by dashing alongside six fighting bulls through the slippery, rain-soaked streets of the northern city of Pamplona in the sixth running of the bulls at Spain's San Fermin festival.
Municipal workers applied an anti-slip coating to the cobblestones of the narrow streets in an attempt to lessen injuries after rain fell overnight.
No one was gored on Saturday but one runner was taken to hospital with a suspected bone fracture, Spanish Red Cross spokesman Jose Aldaba said.
The nine-day street-partying festival was immortalized in Ernest Hemingway's 1926 novel "The Sun Also Rises."

Hi there,
wmiles has fixed the bugs in his fork release of w3c total cache.
I am using his version on my site and it works really well. Even preload caching issues now have been fixed and enhanced.
Kind regards,
Hi there,

Kind regards,
Interesting, thanks for posting that. I've installed that update on my site and it seems to work well, though I'd rather it come from the official W3 Total Cache release than a random site.
Will it fix previously created load of data?
@Awebus, what exactly do you mean by "created load of data"?
@Shyzer: wmiles has also published an enhanced version of 0.9.2.4. This worked very well on my site, too. With these good expericences, I personally do trust his releases.
wmiles has announced his releases in this forum earlier, here is the link to his original post.
Should update to latest, issues have been resolved there.
@Frederick Townes:
Maybe the 0.9.2.7 resolved the inital issue in this thread, but from what I can see in this forum, it causes a lot of other issues.
For me, wmiles forked version 0.9.2.5 still is the most
best working version so far. Check his release notes here.
I am using it on shared hosting - it works brilliantly. Check this, this and this thread to understand why.
With cloudfront CDN, I have managed to get my pageload speed down to less than 1,0 seconds.
This is amongst other things due to the fact that wmiles has fixed cache preload function (and some other features) which do not work or did not exist at all in Frederick Townes 0.9.2.5 release.
I can really recommend the 0.9.2.5 fork by wmiles!
Hi @wp-fan, it would be great if we can talk offline. Please contact me through my site.
Hi @Frederick Townes,
I just sent you a message via contact form.
I'm sad to report that I found it necessary to follow wp-fan's recommendations, as I've been experiencing problems ever since "upgrading" to 0.9.2.7 and then downgrading down to 0.9.2.6 again after it messed up a bunch of things.
I have now performed a clean uninstall and used the suggested "forked" 0.9.2.5 release above - no more downtime (had on and off downtime every day since upgrade) and page speed scores of above 90 again.
Awesome plugin, but hope Frederick and the team release an update that addresses the many issues - really looking forward to it!
Glad to hear it helped. I am still very happy with that version, too.
what did Frederick Townes want to talk to you offline about?
I'm very interested to know.
I find it strange that w3 total cache worked fine for years and all of a sudden it begins to have issues. Interesting that the new "update" has an offer for professional service?
what did Frederick Townes want to talk to you offline about?
If we had a private conversation via Skype, would you like me to make the details public afterwards? ;)
But what to give you an idea, we talked about some technical implications of the project and that wmiles version is probably not a "fork".
Interesting that the new "update" has an offer for professional service?
I have voiced a few thoughts about the paid service Frederick offers here.
I updated the plugin yesterday and lost the ability to login to my wp-admin.
The only way i'm able to login is by deleting the plugin folder and the associated files in wp-content. Any ideas? can i revert to a previous version of the plugin and if so where can I find the older version.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
You can find older versions of the plugin under the Developers section on the front page. I downgraded myself to 0.9.2.5 and will be sticking with it until it seems all issues have been resolved.

NEW YORK (AP) -- During Valentine's week, viewers were showing CBS the love.
According to Nielsen Co. figures released Wednesday, in last week's top 30 ranking, CBS could claim all but eight of the most-watched shows. And on Valentine's night, CBS' durable drama "NCIS" won the top spot with a remarkable audience of nearly 20 million viewers.
For the week, CBS' prime-time average was 10.9 million viewers, with Fox in second place with 8.7 million. ABC and NBC followed.
NBC's "Nightly News" topped the evening newscasts, as usual, with ABC's "World News" placing second and the "CBS Evening News" in third.
