Mindo on the other hand, was heaven for my lungs, and also for my adventurous spirit! I live by the motto, "Try everything at least once." The group of us four took this to heart and in the span of less than two days charged ourselves with adrenaline, took a deep breath, and went for ...

... hour of using very slow internet, we began walking just as it was starting to get dark with the hotel staff advising us to return before nightfall. We had also been warned that there were snakes in the forest, a fact which Greg kept reminding me of, which was stressing me out. So we cut the walk short.
We ate dinner in the hotel with our guide. As he has led the Quito-to-Lima trip we are about to start, he gave us lots of hints and tips for the coming ...

We got back to town at 10pm and every bar/restaurant was closing (that's how Mindo rolls) and so we headed back to the hostel. On Saturday morning we left Mindo to head back to Quito as the buses run later on Sunday's and we have to meet our homestay family at 1pm on Sunday so couldn't risk it. ...

In April 2012, the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (JOBS Act) was signed into law. The JOBS Act makes it easier and less burdensome for companies that qualify as "emerging growth companies" to raise capital through initial public offerings (IPOs) and also reduces their SEC disclosure obligations for up to five years following the completion of their IPOs. In May 2012, the SEC staff issued initial interpretive advice that extends these JOBS Act provisions to business development companies (BDCs) that qualify as "emerging growth companies." What exactly does this mean for prospective BDCs, and what are the implications for the BDC industry going forward?
On Wednesday, May 23, join Sutherland's BDC team for a Quick Call to learn more about the brave new world of BDC IPOs after the JOBS Act. Partners Steven B. Boehm, Cynthia M. Krus, John J. Mahon and Harry S. Pangas are leading the discussion.

Cooper's Hawk Winery & Restaurant - Wheeling

The 9-mile Green Bay Trail covers North Shore towns such as Kenilworth, Winnetka, Highland Park and Lake Bluff. Because the trail stays generally within a mile of Lake Michigan, you can take any number of on-road side trips for beachfront views of the lake. The trail is suitable for even the youngest of riders, although the route does use some sidewalks and even a very small portion of residential road in Kenilworth.

Tire recommendations
Hi all
I'm looking into getting a new set of tires. I just installed a 2" skyjacker spacer lift w/shocks so I wanted slightly larger tires. Any recommendations on aggressive looking tires? Most of my driving is city/highway/snow only off-road on sand once or twice a year. Looking at maybe 31x10.5's. Right now I have a BF Goodrich A/T set which is good on asphalt but terrible on snow/wet roads. I'd appreciate comments on what to and not to get. By the way, you gals and guys are great! I really enjoy being part of the forum.
i've actually been really pleased with my BFG A/T's, and in the near near future when its time to get new ones, i'll be going with 31x10.50's to match up nicely to my BB. i can't really complain about good road manners and over 50K on this set.
Tires for wet or snow-covered roads should be narrow, which is possibly why your wider BFG ATs aren't doing so well.
just some to look at: mickey thompson mtz's, maxxis mudders, dayton timberlines, wild coutry rvt's... most "strictly off-road" tires are not going to perform great in snow, ice, and wet conditions because of the width and tread design but some are rated better than others. for which ones arerated the highest, i have no clue. if those are the conditions that you are in i would find guys in here from up north and poll them on the question. hope ya find what your lookin for.
i would be interested to see how the mtz's perform. i like the looks of them. anyone on here run them or run em in the past?
Thanks Jerry, I run BFG A/T's: 33 x 9.5, I was thinking they drove great in rain & snow....but have let me down while wheeling in the rain/muck, so alas, I'm looking for a different trail tire ;)
Thank you all!
I'll check out the MT's. While walking the dog today I saw an Unlimited around my neighborhood with brand new Interco tires that looked good. Have you heard of anyone owning these? :-)
i have the bfg muds and they look really aggressive and i love them
have you run them before bigjeep?
I'm surprised you're having trouble with the BFG a/t's since they have been great for my driving except in mud. I definately will be buying BFG again, long lasting quiet tire.
It's not like real trouble, but do notice they don't respond too well on wet roads. Snow is ok. I'm thinking about getting bigger tires and a bit more of an agressive look and wanted to see if I could go with something different than the BFG's. Not too concerned about noise - my stereo sounds great :-).
The bigger or flatter the tire you choose, the worse it will do in your wet road or snow-covered road conditions. :)
the goodyear wranglet silent armor and the bridgestone revo dueler are both rated pretty good in rain and decent in snow.
Whatever you decide on, siping your tires will help a lot in the snow for the winter. You may want to look at the Goodyear MTR's as well, I have had really good luck with them (especially on my stock Rubicon) in the winter.
I have to agree with jeeperman. If you run in a lot of wet conditions, siping will greatly improve your traction. Most tire dealers will offer this service for a nominal fee when you purchase a set of tires. I am personally partial to BFG, I have run both the A/T's and the M/T's and had great experiences with both. Another brand to consider is pro comp, long lasting, and very aggressive. 4 wheel parts usually runs a buy three get one free on this brand also.
I must be psychic. I knew yesterday that you were going to say that you had a buddy that ran them. I even started to post that before you did. Now I wish I would have.
Who is this buddy that has done everything?
yup i got lots of buddies...you'd be surprised at all the stuff they have...they dish out a ton of money to there rigs...and my buddies KNOW buddies
I have the MTZ in 33 x 11.5 (285/75R/16) and was never happier to get rid of my MT/r's. The MTZ outperform them in everything off road (we have no rock gardens here) even more so on rain and snow covered roads. Plus they are quieter then the MT/r's.
Quoted from another post by BigJeep:
"ok i got my wheels today and called up my tire man to see what mud terrain he had and he said he had one called "wild country mud terrain"... anybody have any experience with these? i think they might also be called "mud kings"
Big jeep this is the same tire as you say your buddy has. once they go past a certain size the name changes. he must not have told you alot about them.
Just a thought: Forums are not meant to be a contest to see who can post the most, they are meant to give very informative answers to people who are looking for them.
I'll quote from personal experience. MT/R's, excellent all around tire (Especially rocks). Swamper TSL's Great off road, but even the radials wear down on the road extremely fast.
I currently run Mickey Thompson Baja Claws. I don't know how they do in the snow, but I would imagine they would be good due to fact they are directional with good deep lugs. They have done great for me in the mud when I have occasion to need to go thru mud and the are killer in the rocks.
Any comments on the Wrangler Kevlar AT tires?
I hadn't heard about a Goodyear Wrangler All Terrain with Kevlar sidewalls but if that's a new tire they have out now, that sounds real good to me if you want an All Terrain. Goodyear's Wrangler MT/R has Kevlar sidewalls & it's a nearly bulletproof tire that does extremely well out here in the SOCAL deserts. Actually, I'd rather have that tire or a Mud Terrain over an All Terrain for our local trails. :)

Brady v. International Brotherhood of Teamsters, No. 13-cv-2038 (2d Cir. Feb. 3, 2014): The Second Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the lower court's dismissal of a Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act (LMRDA) claim against a union and its local for lack of subject matter jurisdiction because the plaintiff was neither a formal member nor a "member in substance" of the union. At various times during his employment, the plaintiff obtained work through International Brotherhood of Teamsters Local 817's hiring hall, which eventually resulted in his request to join the union through the formal application process. Local 817, however, twice denied the plaintiff's requests for an application, which the plaintiff claimed was in retaliation for prior complaints he had made about a Local 817 member. Notwithstanding his lack of formal membership in the union, the plaintiff claimed that the LMRDA protected him because he was a "member in substance" of the union; that is, was a person who satisfies all of the requirements for membership set forth in a union's constitution but merely lacked formal admission. The Second Circuit agreed that the LMRDA protects "members in substance" but disagreed that the plaintiff satisfied the requirements. Consistent with sister circuits, the Second Circuit held that the LMRDA protects "members in substance," but stated that such protection applies only where the union does not retain discretion to refuse membership of qualified candidates. Here, the union's constitution did not require Local 817 to accept every eligible applicant for membership (i.e., it retained discretion on membership), so the plaintiff could not rely on the "member in substance" protections under the LMRDA to invoke federal court jurisdiction. Of note, the decision provides clarity regarding the potential scope of LMRDA claims in the Second Circuit.

He was a farmer, a businessman gone bankrupt, an unknown politician from Missouri who suddenly found himself president. Of all the men who had held the highest office, Harry Truman was the least prepared. But he would prove to be a surprise. Facing some of the biggest crises of the century, Truman would end the war with Germany, use the atomic bomb against Japan, confront an expanding Soviet Union and wage war in Korea -- all while the woman he adored, his wife Bess, refused to stay in the White House and play the role of First Lady. The story of the unlikely rise of a gritty American original.
America and Europe organize for a common defense.
North Atlantic Treaty
Washington, D.C.
April 4, 1949
The Parties to this Treaty reaffirm their faith in the purposes and principles of the Charter of the United Nations and their desire to live in peace with all peoples and all governments.

They are resolved to unite their efforts for collective defense and for the preservation of peace and security.
They therefore agree to this North Atlantic Treaty:
Article 1
The Parties undertake, as set forth in the Charter of the United Nations, to settle any international dispute in which they may be involved by peaceful means in such a manner that international peace and security and justice are not endangered, and to refrain in their international relations from the threat or use of force in any manner inconsistent with the purposes of the United Nations.
Article 2
The Parties will contribute toward the further development of peaceful and friendly international relations by strengthening their free institutions, by bringing about a better understanding of the principles upon which these institutions are founded, and by promoting conditions of stability and well being. They will seek to eliminate conflict in their international economic policies and will encourage economic collaboration between any or all of them.
Article 3
In order more effectively to achieve the objectives of this Treaty, the Parties, separately and jointly, by means of continuous and effective self-help and mutual aid, will maintain and develop their individual and collective capacity to resist armed attack.
Article 4
The Parties will consult together whenever, in the opinion of any of them, the territorial integrity, political independence or security of any of the Parties is threatened.
Article 5
The Parties agree that an armed attack against one or more of them in Europe or North America shall be considered an attack against them all, and consequently they agree that, if such an armed attack occurs, each of them, in exercise of the right of individual or collective self defense recognized by Article 51 of the Charter of the United Nations, will assist the Party or Parties so attacked by taking forthwith, individually, and in concert with the other Parties, such action as it deems necessary, including the use of armed force, to restore and maintain the security of the North Atlantic area.
Any such armed attack and all measures taken as a result thereof shall immediately be reported to the Security Council. Such measures shall be terminated when the Security Council has taken the measures necessary to restore and maintain international peace and security.
Article 6
For the purpose of Article 5, an armed attack on one or more of the Parties is deemed to include an armed attack:
- On the territory of any of the Parties in Europe or North America, on the Algerian Departments of France, on the territory of Turkey or on the islands under the jurisdiction of any of the Parties in the North Atlantic area north of the Tropic of Cancer;
- On the forces, vessels, or aircraft of any of the Parties, when in or over these territories or any area in Europe in which occupation forces of any of the Parties were stationed on the date when the Treaty entered into force or the Mediterranean Sea or the North Atlantic area north of the Tropic of Cancer.
Article 7
The Treaty does not effect, and shall not be interpreted as affecting, in any way the rights and obligations under the Charter of the Parties which are members of the United Nations, or the primary responsibility of the Security Council for the maintenance of international peace and security.
Article 8
Each Party declares that none of the international engagements now in force between it and any other of the Parties or any third State is in conflict with the provisions of this Treaty, and undertakes not to enter into any international engagement in conflict with this Treaty.
Article 9
The Parties hereby establish a Council, on which each of them shall be represented to consider matters concerning the implementation of this Treaty. The Council shall be so organized as to be able to meet promptly at any time. The Council shall set up such subsidiary bodies as may be necessary; in particular it shall establish immediately a defense committee which shall recommend measures for the implementation of Articles 3 and 5.
Article 10
The Parties may, by unanimous agreement, invite any other European State in a position to further the principles of this Treaty and to contribute to the security of the North Atlantic area to accede to this Treaty. Any State so invited may become a party to the Treaty by depositing its instrument of accession with the Government of the United States of America. The Government of the United States of America will inform each of the Parties of the deposit of each such instrument of accession.
Article 11
This Treaty shall be ratified and its provisions carried out by the Parties in accordance with their respective constitutional processes. The instruments of ratification shall be deposited as soon as possible with the Government of the United States of America, which will notify all the other signatories of each deposit. The Treaty shall enter into force between the States which have ratified it as soon as the ratification of the majority of the signatories, including the ratifications of Belgium, Canada, France, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and the United States, have been deposited and shall come into effect with respect to other States on the date of the deposit of their ratifications.
Article 12
After the Treaty has been in force for ten years, or at any time thereafter, the Parties shall, if any of them so requests, consult together for the purpose of reviewing the Treaty, having regard for the factors then affecting peace and security in the North Atlantic area including the development of universal as well as regional arrangements under the Charter of the United Nations for the maintenance of international peace and security.
Article 13
After the Treaty has been in force for twenty years, any Party may cease to be a Party one year after its notice of denunciation has been given to the Government of the United States of America, which will inform the Governments of the other Parties of the deposit of each notice of denunciation.
Article 14
This Treaty, of which the English and French texts are equally authentic, shall be deposited in the archives of the Government of the United States of America. Duly certified copies will be transmitted by that government to the governments of the other signatories.

As winds whirled and converged to the west of Endeavour Crater, Opportunity's power dropped dramatically in October, but the Mars Exploration Rover (MER) pressed on. By month's end, the robot field geologist had completed her assignments – including capturing the first close-in shot of a comet from the surface of the Red Planet – and was roving onward through the darkness, driving the mission into the 130th month of what started out more than 10-and-a-half years ago to be a 3-month tour.

With only 10 days remaining until the arrival of Comet Siding Spring at Mars, ISRO has shielded the Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM) from the comet. On Tuesday MOM's orbit was altered so as to move it behind the Red Planet when the comet arrives. MOM will carry out observations of the comet and its Mars Colour Camera will click images of it.

How can we use MAVEN to learn about Comet Siding Spring, passing very close by Mars this month?
Comet Siding Spring FAQ
What's the deal with a comet flying close to Mars?
On October 19, 2014, Comet Siding Spring (more formally, C/2013 A1 Siding Spring) will fly very close to Mars.
Why is it called Siding Spring?
It is named after the observatory in Australia where the discovery was made by Robert McNaught.
Will it hit Mars?
No. Early on, when its orbit was not well known, we weren't sure, but now we are.
How far from Mars will it be?
At closest approach, it will be about 140,000 km (88,000 mi) from Mars. That is 10 times closer to Mars than any recorded comet flyby of Earth. The distance is equivalent to only about 1/3 the distance from the Earth to the Moon. Mars moons are much closer to the planet, so the comet will still be much farther from Mars than they are.
How fast will the comet be traveling relative to Mars?
About 56 km per second, or about 126,000 miles per hour.
How big is the comet?
The exact size of the nucleus (the solid part of the comet) is not well known, but current estimates put it at 700 meters diameter, which is much smaller than some of the initial estimates.
Will the seven working spacecraft at Mars be safe?
They should be. As more information has become known about the comet, including its low dust production and the distance it will be from Mars, the risk to spacecraft is thought to be very low. Still, some of the orbiters have been phased so they will be on the other side of Mars when the maximum dust and gas from the comet is expected to pass by them. The atmosphere of Mars will protect the rovers.
Will there be science obtained?
The fleet of Mars spacecraft, though not designed for comet observations, will be taking lots of data ranging from attempted imaging, to studying the dust and gas given off by the comet and the interaction of that dust and gas with Mars. Read articles in the blogs at planetary.org to learn more including http://www.planetary.org/blogs/guest-blogs/2014/1006-comet-siding-spring-exciting-times.html.
What is new about these comet observations?
All previous comets studied by relatively nearby spacecraft have been short period comets, comets that orbit the Sun in a few years or a few tens of years. This comet in contrast is coming in from the distant Oort cloud and may be taking its first voyage near the Sun. We don't know how that will affect what we see.
Should we expect great pictures like from other spacecraft that have visited comets?
There will be attempts at imaging, but the comet is likely to only be a few pixels in size. There may or may not be images with Mars in them as well. It is wise to temper expectations about imaging.
Will it be visible from Earth?
Possibly with binoculars, but probably requiring a descent telescope, and to have a good view, you'll need to be in the Southern Hemisphere.

Pennsylvania Ford Hybrid Drivers Sue Over "False" 47 MPG Claims
Tiffany Kaiser

Sender E-mail
(Source: consumerwatchdog.org)
The lawsuit seeks at least $5 million in damages
Customers who've purchased certain new Ford hybrid vehicles in Pennsylvania are suing the automaker, saying that its
fuel-efficiency claims are false
Pennsylvania owners of Ford's 2013 Fusion Hybrid and C-Max Hybrid cars are suing the Detroit auto company because their vehicles are falling far below the advertised 47 mpg. In fact, they've fallen as short as 17 to 21 percent below that figure.
The lawsuit, which was filed by Pennsylvania owners of the two vehicles in Philadelphia federal court, seeks damages of at least $5 million and says Ford has violated the state's unfair-trade practices and consumer protection laws.
"Plaintiffs are some of the tens of thousands of consumers who purchased a Fusion Hybrid or C-Max Hybrid, only to be stuck with under-performing, less valuable vehicles that inflict higher fuel costs on their owners," according to the complaint.
Back in December 2012,
Consumer Reports
pointed out the inaccuracies of both
the 2013 Fusion Hybrid and C-Max Hybrid cars
. According to its testing, the C-Max Hybrid received 35/38/37 mpg for city/highway/combined and the Fusion Hybrid had 35/41/39 mpg.
At that time, Ford responded to
Consumer Reports'
claims saying that mileage varies among hybrids.
"Early C-Max Hybrid and Fusion Hybrid customers praise the vehicles and report a range of fuel economy figures, including some reports above 47 mpg," said Ford spokesman Wes Sherwood. "This reinforces the fact that driving styles, driving conditions and other factors can cause mileage to vary."
While all vehicles must undergo the EPA test for fuel efficiency, the test isn't actually administered by the government agency. Instead, automakers perform the test and the EPA reviews it. In many cases, factors like temperature and speed result in gas mileage being lower than the EPA sticker.
But after Ford was called out for coming up with inaccurate fuel ratings for its two hybrids, the EPA stepped in to do a test of its own.
another round of testing
of the C-Max Hybrid in March, Wayne Gerdes found that it only achieved 35.537 miles per gallon over 360 highway miles. But in the city, he was able to achieve 52 miles per gallon over 22.8 miles of driving, which is better than the EPA promises.
"So if you want to save the planet, feel free to drive your Hummer. Just avoid the drive thru line at McDonalds." -- Michael Asher

Last week, CPSC staff proposed an amendment to the agency's current voluntary standards rule that would allow Commission employees to participate as voting members and to accept leadership positions in voluntary standard development groups. The new rule would amend 16 CFR 1031 to remove the current prohibitions on this type of CPSC staff involvement in voluntary standards activities and instead allow the Office of the Executive Director to approve any such staff participation on a case-by-case basis. The proposed amendment follows a 2012 GAO report that encouraged the CPSC to allow staff to take a more active role in developing voluntary standards, including voting on standards and taking leadership roles.
The Commission is scheduled to vote on the staff's proposed rule tomorrow (September 10th) but that deadline could be extended to the end of the week. Although the Commission could always vote not to approve the proposed amendment or alter it substantially, the proposal likely will be approved and not be altered much from its present form. The most common Commission alterations to the staff versions of proposed rules that are not greatly controversial is for the Commission to insert additional questions in the request for comments section of the proposal to solicit feedback on specific issues from stakeholders.
If approved in its present form, the agency will be specifically seeking comments on:
The proposal provides 60 days for public comment, which means the comment period likely would close sometime in late November if the Commission votes to approve the proposed amendment this week.

Since I subscribed to Naxos Music Library and MOG I don't really buy much music any more unless it's something they don't have and I really want. Then I'll get the hard copy (CD) and add it to my digital library.

Great french website for every file format imaginable (including hi-res music). I find they have everything I'm usually looking for - from rock to rap to jazz to classics.
Only problem is that they sometimes limit sales to french addresses only, so you'll have to put in a hotel address or something to bypass the check.
Also, you'll have to be able to read french or use google translate (or chrome's built-in translator).
7digital.com is another decent website.

320kbps Discographys if you know what i mean, sadly I would have no problem getting a Steve Hoffman 24kt Re-Mastered CD of several of my several artists if i have a nice CD player.
Yep, I agree with that.
I get a lot of music CDs from the local library. When I find one I really like I often buy a copy to support the artist. Ummm... maybe I should just send a dollar to the composer and artist and cut out the middlemen.
Crazy thing for me these days is I can go thru 30 CD's of new music a week now and not find one track I want to keep. But that is a good Idea. Send the dollar right to the composer.

Higher Education Webinars
Tracy Mitrano explores the intersection where higher education, the Internet and the world meet (and sometimes collide).

It is a title designed to catch attention, but the content has the purpose of drawing an important similarity to what most take as a distinction.

With the holiday in the rearview mirror, I had time to reflect on the four categories of privacy law proffered in the last blog. One more came to mind as I was driving up I 95 near D.C., appropriately so, because it is about administrative law. Allow me, for the record, to copy and paste the ones that I included in the last blog and add this one to it, with a little description. It matters because administrative law may come to play a more significant role in governance of Internet companies that either the legislature or the judiciary.

Business intelligence is all the go these days, and increasingly confused with information management. People are wondering what these functions are exactly, whether they are the same or could be located in the same office. Short answer: no. Longer answer: Read on.

Kirtsaeng v. John Wiley & Sons is an interesting case more for what it points to than what upon decision will say. It points to big chinks in the armor of "international copyright law," i.e. the Berne Treaty that extended U.S. copyright law to signatories whose arms were twisted to sign in exchange for trade agreements.
October 17, 2012 - 9:11am
On the national policy front, or "Big 'P' Policy, both privacy and security issues are rising to the fore. Do not track mechanisms are, to quote a New York Times recent article on this subject, "features on browsers — like Mozilla's Firefox — that give consumers the option of sending out digital signals asking companies to stop collecting information about their online activities for purposes of targeted advertising." The market sector is not happy. Microsoft is releasing version 10 of its web browser, Internet Explorer, with a default do not track setting; to allow cookies or other tracking requires the user to change the setting. Business interests have reacted angrily, with the Association of National Advertisers sending Microsoft's CEO, Steve Ballmer, an open letter objecting to that decision.

In April of 2001 I began working in the position from which I now write, Director of Information Technology Policy at Cornell. As a law student, I had elected to take a course in intellectual property. Most of my classmates had engineering degrees and were headed for patent law as a career. I was another "Eng." major, English Literature, and wanted to know why publishers of the J.D. Salinger biography had pulled it before it hit the shelves. Turns out, the author had included full texts of letters Salinger had written a long-term lover. The author had access to the letters, but she did not have the copyright in them. A fair use defense would not have sufficed under the circumstances. Consequently, the publishers removed the letters before publication.
