Internet Explorer versions: |
Internet Explorer[a] (formerly Microsoft Internet Explorer[b] and Windows Internet Explorer,[c] commonly abbreviated IE or MSIE) is a discontinued series of graphical web browsers developed by Microsoft and included as part of the Microsoft Windows line of operating systems, starting in 1995. It was first released as part of the add-on package Plus! for Windows 95 that year. Later versions were available as free downloads, or in service packs, and included in the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) service releases of Windows 95 and later versions of Windows.
Internet Explorer was one of the most widely used web browsers, attaining a peak of about 95% usage share during 2002 and 2003.[5] This came after Microsoft used bundling to win the first browser war against Netscape, which was the dominant browser in the 1990s. Its usage share has since declined with the launch of Firefox (2004) and Google Chrome (2008), and with the growing popularity of operating systems such as macOS, Linux, iOS and Android that do not run Internet Explorer. Estimates for Internet Explorer's overall market share range from 5.45% to 27.38% or by StatCounter's numbers ranked 3rd, just after Firefox (or even as low as 6th when counting all platforms, after Opera (and behind Safari)[6]), as of August 2016 (browser market share is notoriously difficult to calculate). Microsoft spent over US$100 million per year on Internet Explorer in the late 1990s,[7] with over 1,000 people working on it by 1999.[8][9]
Versions of Internet Explorer for other operating systems have also been produced, including Internet Explorer for Mac and Internet Explorer for UNIX (Solaris and HP-UX), an Xbox 360 version called Internet Explorer for Xbox and an embedded OEM version called Pocket Internet Explorer, later rebranded Internet Explorer Mobile made for Windows Phone, Windows CE, and previously, based on Internet Explorer 7 for Windows Mobile.
On March 17, 2015, Microsoft announced that Microsoft Edge would replace Internet Explorer as the default browser on its Windows 10 devices. This effectively makes Internet Explorer 11 the last release. Internet Explorer will, however, remain on some versions of Windows 10 primarily for enterprise purposes.[10] Starting January 12, 2016, only Internet Explorer 11 is supported with more security than older versions, according to Microsoft.[11][12] Support varies based on the operating system's technical capabilities and its support lifecycle.[13]
The browser has been scrutinized throughout its development for use of third-party technology (such as the source code of Spyglass Mosaic, used without royalty in early versions) and security and privacy vulnerabilities, and the United States and the European Union have alleged that integration of Internet Explorer with Windows has been to the detriment of fair browser competition.
The Internet Explorer project was started in the summer of 1994 by Thomas Reardon, who, according to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Review of 2003,[14] used source code from Spyglass, Inc. Mosaic, which was an early commercial web browser with formal ties to the pioneering National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA) Mosaic browser.[15][16] In late 1994, Microsoft licensed Spyglass Mosaic for a quarterly fee plus a percentage of Microsoft's non-Windows revenues for the software.[16] Although bearing a name similar to NCSA Mosaic, Spyglass Mosaic had used the NCSA Mosaic source code sparingly.[17] Microsoft was sued by Synet Inc. in 1996, over the trademark infringement.[18]
The first version of Internet Explorer, Microsoft Internet Explorer (later referred to as Internet Explorer 1) made its debut on August 16, 1995. It was a reworked version of Spyglass Mosaic, which Microsoft licensed from Spyglass Inc., like many other companies initiating browser development.[15][16] It was installed as part of the Internet Jumpstart Kit in Microsoft Plus! for Windows 95 and Plus!.[19] The Internet Explorer team began with about six people in early development.[17][20] Internet Explorer 1.5 was released several months later for Windows NT and added support for basic table rendering. By including it free of charge on their operating system, they did not have to pay royalties to Spyglass Inc, resulting in a lawsuit and a US$8 million settlement on January 22, 1997.[15][21]
Internet Explorer 9 is only supported on Windows Vista SP2, Windows 7, Windows Server 2008, and Windows Server 2008 R2.[24] It supports several CSS 3 properties (including border-radius, box-shadow, etc.), and embedded ICC v2 or v4 colour profiles support via Windows Color System. The 32-bit version has faster JavaScript performance, this being due to a new JavaScript engine called "Chakra".[25] It also features hardware accelerated graphics rendering using Direct2D, hardware-accelerated text rendering using DirectWrite, hardware-accelerated video rendering using Media Foundation, imaging support provided by Windows Imaging Component, and high fidelity printing powered by the XPS print pipeline.[26] IE9 also supports the HTML5 video and audio tags and the Web Open Font Format.[27] Internet Explorer 9 initially scored 95/100 on the Acid3 test, but has scored 100/100 since the test was updated in September 2011.[28]
Internet Explorer was to be omitted from Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 in Europe, but Microsoft ultimately included it, with a browser option screen allowing users to select any of several web browsers (including Internet Explorer).[29][30][31][32][33]
Internet Explorer is now available on Xbox 360 with Kinect support, as of October 2012.[34]
Internet Explorer 10 became generally available on October 26, 2012, alongside Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012, but is by now supported on Windows Server 2012, while Windows Server 2012 R2 only supports Internet Explorer 11. It became available for Windows 7 on February 26, 2013.[35] Microsoft announced Internet Explorer 10 in April 2011, at MIX 11 in Las Vegas, releasing the first Platform Preview at the same time. At the show, it was said that Internet Explorer 10 was about 3 weeks in development.[36] This release further improves upon standards support, including HTML5 Drag & Drop and CSS3 gradients. Internet Explorer 10 drops support for Windows Vista and will only run on Windows 7 Service Pack 1 and later.[37] Internet Explorer 10 Release Preview was also released on the Windows 8 Release Preview platform.
Internet Explorer 11 is featured in a Windows 8.1 update which was released on October 17, 2013. It includes an incomplete mechanism for syncing tabs. It is a major update to its developer tools,[38][39] enhanced scaling for high DPI screens,[40]HTML5 prerender and prefetch,[41]hardware-accelerated JPEG decoding,[42]closed captioning, HTML5 full screen,[43] and is the first Internet Explorer to support WebGL[44][45][46] and Google's protocol SPDY (starting at v3).[47]
Windows 8.1 only: cryptography (WebCrypto),[38]adaptive bitrate streaming (Media Source Extensions),[48]Encrypted Media Extensions.[43]
Internet Explorer 11 was made available for Windows 7 users to download on November 7, 2013, with Automatic Updates in the following weeks.[49]
Internet Explorer 11's user agent string now identifies the agent as "Trident" (the underlying layout engine) instead of "MSIE". It also announces compatibility with Gecko (the layout engine of Firefox).
Internet Explorer has been designed to view a broad range of web pages and provide certain features within the operating system, including Microsoft Update. During the heyday of the browser wars, Internet Explorer superseded Netscape only when it caught up technologically to support the progressive features of the time.[51][better source needed]
Internet Explorer, using the Trident layout engine:
MIME-type.Internet Explorer uses DOCTYPE sniffing to choose between standards mode and a "quirks mode" in which it deliberately mimicks nonstandard behaviours of old versions of MSIE for HTML and CSS rendering on screen (Internet Explorer always uses standards mode for printing). It also provides its own dialect of ECMAScript called JScript.
Internet Explorer was criticised by Tim Berners-Lee for its limited support for SVG which is promoted by W3C.[55]
Internet Explorer has introduced an array of proprietary extensions to many of the standards, including HTML, CSS, and the DOM. This has resulted in a number of web pages that appear broken in standards-compliant web browsers and has introduced the need for a "quirks mode" to allow for rendering improper elements meant for Internet Explorer in these other browsers.
Internet Explorer has introduced a number of extensions to the DOM that have been adopted by other browsers. These include the innerHTML property, which provides access to the HTML string within an element[] ; the XMLHttpRequest object, which allows the sending of HTTP request and receiving of HTTP response, and may be used to perform AJAX; and the designMode attribute of the contentDocument object, which enables rich text editing of HTML documents[] . Some of these functionalities were not possible until the introduction of the W3C DOM methods. Its Ruby character extension to HTML is also accepted as a module in W3C XHTML 1.1, though it is not found in all versions of W3C HTML.
Microsoft submitted several other features of IE for consideration by the W3C for standardization. These include the 'behaviour' CSS property, which connects the HTML elements with JScript behaviours (known as HTML Components, HTC); HTML+TIME profile, which adds timing and media synchronization support to HTML documents (similar to the W3C XHTML+SMIL), and the VML vector graphics file format. However, all were rejected, at least in their original forms; VML was subsequently combined with PGML (proposed by Adobe and Sun), resulting in the W3C-approved SVG format, one of the few vector image formats being used on the web, which IE did not support until version 9.[56]
Other non-standard behaviours include: support for vertical text, but in a syntax different from W3C CSS3 candidate recommendation, support for a variety of image effects[57] and page transitions, which are not found in W3C CSS, support for obfuscated script code, in particular JScript.Encode.[58] Support for embedding EOT fonts in web pages.[59]
Support for favicons was first added in Internet Explorer 5.[60] Internet Explorer supports favicons in PNG, static GIF and native Windows icon formats. In Windows Vista and later, Internet Explorer can display native Windows icons that have embedded PNG files.[61][62]
Internet Explorer makes use of the accessibility framework provided in Windows. Internet Explorer is also a user interface for FTP, with operations similar to that of Windows Explorer. Pop-up blocking and tabbed browsing were added respectively in Internet Explorer 6 and Internet Explorer 7. Tabbed browsing can also be added to older versions by installing MSN Search Toolbar or Yahoo Toolbar.
Internet Explorer caches visited content in the Temporary Internet Files folder to allow quicker access (or offline access) to previously visited pages. The content is indexed in a database file, known as Index.dat. Multiple Index.dat files exist which index different content--visited content, web feeds, visited URLs, cookies, etc.[63]
Prior to IE7, clearing the cache used to clear the index but the files themselves were not reliably removed, posing a potential security and privacy risk. In IE7 and later, when the cache is cleared, the cache files are more reliably removed, and the index.dat file is overwritten with null bytes.
Caching has been improved in IE9.[64]
Internet Explorer is fully configurable using Group Policy. Administrators of Windows Server domains (for domain-joined computers) or the local computer can apply and enforce a variety of settings on computers that affect the user interface (such as disabling menu items and individual configuration options), as well as underlying security features such as downloading of files, zone configuration, per-site settings, ActiveX control behaviour and others. Policy settings can be configured for each user and for each machine. Internet Explorer also supports Integrated Windows Authentication.
Internet Explorer uses a componentized architecture built on the Component Object Model (COM) technology. It consists of several major components, each of which is contained in a separate Dynamic-link library (DLL) and exposes a set of COM programming interfaces hosted by the Internet Explorer main executable, iexplore.exe:[65]
Internet Explorer does not include any native scripting functionality. Rather, MSHTML.dll exposes an API that permit a programmer to develop a scripting environment to be plugged-in and to access the DOM tree. Internet Explorer 8 includes the bindings for the Active Scripting engine, which is a part of Microsoft Windows and allows any language implemented as an Active Scripting module to be used for client-side scripting. By default, only the JScript and VBScript modules are provided; third party implementations like ScreamingMonkey (for ECMAScript 4 support) can also be used. Microsoft also makes available the Microsoft Silverlight runtime (not supported in Windows RT) that allows CLI languages, including DLR-based dynamic languages like IronPython and IronRuby, to be used for client-side scripting.
Internet Explorer 8 introduces some major architectural changes, called Loosely Coupled IE (LCIE). LCIE separates the main window process (frame process) from the processes hosting the different web applications in different tabs (tab processes). A frame process can create multiple tab processes, each of which can be of a different integrity level; each tab process can host multiple web sites. The processes use asynchronous Inter-Process Communication to synchronize themselves. Generally, there will be a single frame process for all web sites. In Windows Vista with Protected Mode turned on, however, opening privileged content (such as local HTML pages) will create a new tab process as it will not be constrained by Protected Mode.[67]
Internet Explorer exposes a set of Component Object Model (COM) interfaces that allows add-ons to extend the functionality of the browser.[65] Extensibility is divided into two types: Browser extensibility and content extensibility. Browser extensibility involves adding context menu entries, toolbars, menu items or Browser Helper Objects (BHO). BHOs are used to extend the feature set of the browser, whereas the other extensibility options are used to expose that feature in the user interface. Content extensibility adds support for non-native content formats.[65] It allows Internet Explorer to handle new file formats and new protocols, e.g. WebM or SPDY.[65] In addition, web pages can integrate widgets known as ActiveX controls which run on Windows only but have vast potentials to extend the content capabilities; Adobe Flash Player and Microsoft Silverlight are examples.[65] Add-ons can be installed either locally, or directly by a web site.
Since malicious add-ons can compromise the security of a system, Internet Explorer implements several safeguards. Internet Explorer 6 with Service Pack 2 and later feature an Add-on Manager for enabling or disabling individual add-ons, complemented by a "No Add-Ons" mode. Starting with Windows Vista, Internet Explorer and its BHOs run with restricted privileges and are isolated from the rest of the system. Internet Explorer 9 introduced a new component - Add-on Performance Advisor. Add-on Performance Advisor shows a notification when one or more of installed add-ons exceed a pre-set performance threshold. The notification appears in the Notification Bar when the user launches the browser. Windows 8 and Windows RT introduce a Metro-style version of Internet Explorer that is entirely sandboxed and does not run add-ons at all.[68] In addition, Windows RT cannot download or install ActiveX controls at all; although existing ones bundled with Windows RT still run in the traditional version of Internet Explorer.[68]
Internet Explorer itself can be hosted by other applications via a set of COM interfaces. This can be used to embed the browser functionality inside a computer program or create Internet Explorer shells.[65]
Internet Explorer uses a zone-based security framework that groups sites based on certain conditions, including whether it is an Internet- or intranet-based site as well as a user-editable whitelist. Security restrictions are applied per zone; all the sites in a zone are subject to the restrictions.
Internet Explorer 6 SP2 onwards uses the Attachment Execution Service of Microsoft Windows to mark executable files downloaded from the Internet as being potentially unsafe. Accessing files marked as such will prompt the user to make an explicit trust decision to execute the file, as executables originating from the Internet can be potentially unsafe. This helps in preventing accidental installation of malware.
Internet Explorer 7 introduced the phishing filter, that restricts access to phishing sites unless the user overrides the decision. With version 8, it also blocks access to sites known to host malware. Downloads are also checked to see if they are known to be malware-infected.
In Windows Vista, Internet Explorer by default runs in what is called Protected Mode, where the privileges of the browser itself are severely restricted--it cannot make any system-wide changes. One can optionally turn this mode off but this is not recommended. This also effectively restricts the privileges of any add-ons. As a result, even if the browser or any add-on is compromised, the damage the security breach can cause is limited.
Patches and updates to the browser are released periodically and made available through the Windows Update service, as well as through Automatic Updates. Although security patches continue to be released for a range of platforms, most feature additions and security infrastructure improvements are only made available on operating systems which are in Microsoft's mainstream support phase.
On December 16, 2008, Trend Micro recommended users switch to rival browsers until an emergency IE patch was released to fix a potential security risk which "could allow outside users to take control of a person's computer and steal their passwords". Microsoft representatives countered this recommendation, claiming that "0.02% of internet sites" were affected by the flaw.
On December 17, 2008, a fix to the security problem above became available, with the release of the Security Update for Internet Explorer KB960714, which is available from Microsoft Windows Update's webpage. Microsoft has said that this update fixes the security risk found by Trend Micro the previous day.[69][70]
In 2011, a report by Accuvant, funded by Google, rated the security (based on sandboxing) of Internet Explorer worse than Google Chrome but better than Mozilla Firefox.[71][72]
Internet Explorer has been subjected to many security vulnerabilities and concerns: Much of the spyware, adware, and computer viruses across the Internet are made possible by exploitable bugs and flaws in the security architecture of Internet Explorer, sometimes requiring nothing more than viewing of a malicious web page in order to install themselves. This is known as a "drive-by install". There are also attempts to trick the user into installing malicious software by misrepresenting the software's true purpose in the description section of an ActiveX security alert.
A number of security flaws affecting IE originated not in the browser itself, but ActiveX-based add-ons used by it. Because the add-ons have the same privilege as IE, the flaws can be as critical as browser flaws. This has led to the ActiveX-based architecture being criticized for being fault-prone. By 2005, some experts maintained that the dangers of ActiveX have been overstated and there were safeguards in place.[73] In 2006, new techniques using automated testing found more than a hundred vulnerabilities in standard Microsoft ActiveX components.[74] Security features introduced in Internet Explorer 7 mitigated some of these vulnerabilities.
Internet Explorer in 2008, had a number of published security vulnerabilities. According to research done by security research firm Secunia, Microsoft did not respond as quickly as its competitors in fixing security holes and making patches available.[75] The firm also reported 366 vulnerabilities in ActiveX controls, an increase from the prior year.
According to an October 2010 report in The Register, researcher Chris Evans had detected a known security vulnerability which, then dating back to 2008, had not been fixed for at least 600 days.[76] Microsoft says that it had known about this vulnerability but it was of very low severity as the victim web site must be configured in a special way for this attack to be feasible at all.[77]
In December 2010, researchers were able to bypass the "Protected Mode" feature in Internet Explorer.[78]
In an advisory on January 14, 2010, Microsoft said that attackers targeting Google and other U.S. companies used software that exploits a security hole, which had already been patched, in Internet Explorer. The vulnerability affected Internet Explorer 6 on Windows XP and Server 2003, IE6 SP1 on Windows 2000 SP4, IE7 on Windows Vista, XP, Server 2008 and Server 2003, and IE8 on Windows 7, Vista, XP, Server 2003, and Server 2008 (R2).[80]
The German government warned users against using Internet Explorer and recommended switching to an alternative web browser, due to the major security hole described above that was exploited in Internet Explorer.[81] The Australian and French Government issued a similar warning a few days later.[82][83][84][85]
On April 26, 2014, Microsoft issued a security advisory relating to CVE-2014-1776, a vulnerability that could allow "remote code execution" in Internet Explorer versions 6 to 11.[86] On April 28, 2014, the United States Department of Homeland Security's United States Computer Emergency Readiness Team (US-CERT) released an advisory stating that the vulnerability could result in "the complete compromise" of an affected system.[87] US-CERT recommended reviewing Microsoft's suggestions to mitigate an attack or using an alternate browser until the bug is fixed.[88][89] The UK National Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-UK) published an advisory announcing similar concerns and for users to take the additional step of ensuring their antivirus software is up-to-date.[90]Symantec, a cyber security firm, confirmed that "the vulnerability crashes Internet Explorer on Windows XP".[91] The vulnerability was resolved on May 1, 2014, with a security update.[92]
This section needs to be updated. (July 2016) |
The adoption rate of Internet Explorer seems to be closely related to that of Microsoft Windows, as it is the default web browser that comes with Windows. Since the integration of Internet Explorer 2.0 with Windows 95 OSR 1 in 1996, and especially after version 4.0's release in 1997, the adoption was greatly accelerated: from below 20% in 1996, to about 40% in 1998, and over
80% in 2000. This made Microsoft the winner in the infamous 'first browser war' against Netscape. Netscape Navigator was the dominant browser during 1995 and until 1997, but rapidly lost share to IE starting in 1998, and eventually slipped behind in 1999. The integration of IE with Windows led to a lawsuit by AOL, Netscape's owner, accusing Microsoft of unfair competition. The infamous case was eventually won by AOL but by then it was too late, as Internet Explorer had already become the dominant browser.
Internet Explorer peaked during 2002 and 2003, with about 95% share. Its first notable competitor after beating Netscape was Firefox from Mozilla, which itself was an offshoot from Netscape.
Firefox 1.0 had surpassed Internet Explorer 5 in early 2005, with Firefox 1.0 at roughly 8 percent market share.[93]
Approximate usage over time based on various usage share counters averaged for the year overall, or for the fourth quarter, or for the last month in the year depending on availability of reference.[94][95][96][97][98][99]
According to StatCounter Internet Explorer's marketshare fell below 50% in September 2010.[100] In May 2012, it was announced that Google Chrome overtook Internet Explorer as the most used browser worldwide.
Browser Helper Objects are also used by many search engine companies and third parties for creating add-ons that access their services, such as search engine toolbars. Because of the use of COM, it is possible to embed web-browsing functionality in third-party applications. Hence, there are a number of Internet Explorer shells, and a number of content-centric applications like RealPlayer also use Internet Explorer's web browsing module for viewing web pages within the applications.
While a major upgrade of Internet Explorer can be uninstalled in a traditional way if the user has saved the original application files for installation, the matter of uninstalling the version of the browser that has shipped with an operating system remains a controversial one.
The idea of removing a stock install of Internet Explorer from a Windows system was proposed during the United States v. Microsoft Corp. case. One of Microsoft's arguments during the trial was that removing Internet Explorer from Windows may result in system instability. Indeed, programs that depend on libraries installed by IE, including Windows help and support system, fail to function without IE. Before Windows Vista, it was not possible to run Windows Update without IE because the service used ActiveX technology, which no other web browser supports.
Microsoft Edge, officially unveiled on January 21, 2015, has replaced Internet Explorer as the default browser on Windows 10. Internet Explorer is still installed in Windows 10 in order to maintain compatibility with older websites and intranet sites that require ActiveX and other Microsoft legacy web technologies.[101][102][103]
The popularity of Internet Explorer has led to the appearance of malware abusing its name. On January 28, 2011, a fake Internet Explorer browser calling itself "Internet Explorer - Emergency Mode" appeared. It closely resembles the real Internet Explorer, but has fewer buttons and no search bar. If a user launches any other browser such as Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Opera, Safari or the real Internet Explorer, this browser will pop-up instead. It also displays a fake error message, claiming that the computer is infected with malware and Internet Explorer has entered Emergency Mode. It blocks access to legitimate sites such as Google if infected users try to access them.[104][105]
There is talk about how we get more $'s from the 1000+ people we have working on browser related stuff...
Compared with older versions of Internet Explorer, Internet Explorer 11 offers improved security
When Vista users try to install the IE10 preview, they see a dialog box that reads, "Windows Internet Explorer Platform Preview does not support any operating system earlier than Windows 7," after which the installation process terminates.

I think the longest the laser was on me was for a minute and a half. I had it done at 5 PM and the next morning I could see results, I see even more today. I was really red right after, but that all went away in an hour or two. I have my next treatment scheduled in three weeks. I bought a package of 5 treatments as well as the undergarment that I was advised to wear 3-4 times a week for 4-6 hours at a time.

The Harper government has approved Canada's fifth oil sands mine after the project spent six years under regulatory scrutiny, prompting a senior cabinet minister and energy executives to argue lengthy reviews are unacceptable.
France's Total SA and its partners are now free to build their proposed Joslyn North strip mine after Joe Oliver, the federal Natural Resources Minister, gave Ottawa's blessing Thursday, while pushing for regulatory reforms.
Mr. Oliver said the approval process for projects like the Joslyn North effort should take no more than two years. His comments, made in Ottawa, come as global leaders struggle to hammer out a new climate change treaty in South Africa. Mr. Oliver's push to speed up the approval process will further fuel criticism of Canada's oil sands industry, which is expected to double production by 2020 to three million barrels of crude per day.
Alberta spits out 40 per cent of the country's carbon dioxide emissions, with oil sands and coal projects representing the largest chunk of the province's emissions. Oil sands mining efforts, while layered with environmental challenges, produce less carbon dioxide than drilling projects.
"The Joslyn project is a telling example for the need for a more efficient and effective regulatory system," Mr. Oliver told reporters. "It is crystal clear that we need to put an end to unreasonable delays – delays that can jeopardize the viability of projects like Joslyn and harm our reputation as an attractive place to do business."
Jean-Michel Gires, the head of Total's Canadian operations, said that while the company is pleased approval came through, the six-year process tested Total's patience.
"Having to explain to [Total's]headquarters what is the process we have to go through and why do we need to go through a six-year process is quite difficult," Mr. Gires said in an interview. "But nevertheless, we did survive."
Those advocating a simpler regulatory process want to eliminate repetitious steps between the federal and provincial governments, for example. The decades-long Mackenzie Valley gas pipeline project also spurred calls for reform.
"We definitely welcome the fact that now the authorities both at the provincial level and the federal level want to reconsider [the process] [They]want maybe to streamline the process so it could be much more one project, one review. Potentially possible as well: Why not one regulator?" Mr. Gires said, noting this will be the first project where Total serves as the operator. "That definitely would make our lives easier."
Liberal environment critic David McGuinty said the Conservatives appear determined to gut the environmental review process to accelerate approval of major resource projects.
He agreed some regulatory systems can be made more efficient, but said Mr. Oliver is setting unrealistic time limits.
"It's not a question of speed, it's a question of credibility," Mr. McGuinty said.
Total shares its Joslyn assets with Suncor Energy Inc. , Occidental Petroleum Corp. and Japan's Inpex Corp. Total says the estimated capital cost for the Joslyn North mine is between $7-billion and $9-billion, and it will produce 100,000 barrels of oil per day at its peak. Production is scheduled to begin in 2017. The entire Joslyn lease, covering 221 square kilometres, will churn out more than 874 million barrels of bitumen over 20 years, Total estimates.

What Does Happiness Mean To You? #MondayBlogs
was invited to do a talk for a motivational group recently on the theme of
'Heaven on Earth.' I spent a long time thinking about what that meant to me.
I decided that happiness was the one thing that gave me contentment. But
sometimes we think that happiness is out of our reach – it's something to work
towards – a goal if you like.
I'm at home, and I talk about setting goals, I can see my kid's eyes begin to
glaze over. 'Oh god, she's off on one of her hippie trips again!'
okay; they're young. Goals aren't as important to them. For them, happiness is
already a huge part of their life; they don't need to think about setting goals
to achieve it.
somehow lost that innocence. Life has been tough over the years and so I truly
believed that happiness was an external element – something other people enjoyed. What I discovered
was the more I concentrated on finding happiness, the more confused I became.
opted to set myself a few goals in a bid to find this elusive happiness. I
decided to shake up my life a little and see what happened.
was the driving force behind my fifty-two challenges in twelve months, which
eventually became my bestselling book, How
I Changed My Life in a Year. Part of the reason behind this venture was the
need to show myself that if you believe in yourself enough, you can achieve
anything. But, I was also searching for some happiness in my life.
on that journey changed everything. I'd set my goals, some small, some big, and
I knew that I needed to be accountable for my actions, which is where this blog
came in. Every challenge, every failure, every success was published and shared
with the public.
book was published in 2014, and I still receive messages on a daily basis from
women who feel motivated to challenge themselves; to grasp a new opportunity
with both hands and own it.
'We all
believed, so we all achieved.'
was as my book climbed the bestseller list that I was hit with a profound
understanding. Happiness filled my life on a daily basis, from the pride I saw
in my children's eyes, to the emails I received from readers, and the
continuing success of my blog.
finally slid into place for me. Happiness was never something to be obtained.
By searching for it, I came to realise that it was already inside me.
need to nourish ourselves during our time here on Earth. Life is too short to
waste it searching – it's time to live, to believe, and to achieve our wildest
dreams. Heaven on Earth is attainable for each and every one of us – we just
have to open our hearts to new opportunities.
you're still in doubt, then let me guide you to one of my popular blog
posts – The Ribbon of Life. If this simple, short exercise doesn't show you
have important it is to nurture yourself and invest time in your own personal
development and spirituality then I don't know what will.
Here's an overview of my ribbon of life exercise:
that happiness comes from within opened my eyes to a new life. I no longer
watch Friends re-runs, and I don't waste
time on negative influences, instead, I share every moment I can with my
children before they grow up and begin their own adventures.
you go about your day, I want you to think about what you believe Heaven on
Earth is for you, and more importantly, what happiness means to you.

Eeep..I don't think I've got much ribbon!VERY interesting post. I've decided happiness is the absence of stress. That's prbably negativr..but it works. Also thinking about some 'blessings' like my 2 grandchildren. At the moment, with what's going on in the country and the world, I am finding it hard to even think about myself/happiness ..... there are so many people for whom it cannot even be a word, let alone a state!
ReplyDeleteThank you for another great post Shelley. It's one of the biggest breakthroughs isn't it when you realise happiness does indeed come from within, finding your own particular 'heaven on earth!'

Exercise for Better Sleep
Good sleep goes hand in hand with good health; after all, one-third of the day is spent in the state of non-wakefulness know as sleep. Whether this sleep is a peaceful slumber or ridden with multiple awakenings has great consequences for productivity, learning, attention and demeanor throughout the day. Thus, it is essential to maintain adequate sleep hygiene, and exercise can play a role in increasing restorative sleep — if done at the right time.

[Intro: Big Sean]
I look up
Yeah, and I take my time, nigga
I'ma take my time, woah
Power moves only, nigga
[Verse 1: Big Sean]
Boy, I'm 'bout my business on business
I drink liquor on liquor
I had women on women, yeah; that's bunk-bed bitches
I've done lived more than an 80-year-old man still kickin'
'Cause they live for some moments, and I live for a livin'
But this for the girls who barely let me get to first base
On some ground ball shit
'Cause now I run my city on some town hall shit
They praying on my motherfucking downfall, bitch
Like a drought, but
You gon' get this rain, like it's May weather
G.O.O.D. Music, 'Ye weather
Champagne just tastes better
They told me I never, boy, never say never
Swear flow special like an infant's first steps
I got paid, then reversed debts
Then I finally found a girl that reverse stress
So now I'm talking to the reaper to reverse death
Yep, so I can kick it with my granddad, take him for a ride
Show him I made somethin' out myself and not just tried
Show him the house I bought the fam, let him tour inside
No matter how far ahead I get, I always feel behind
In my mind, but fuck tryin' and not doin'
'Cause not doin' is somethin' a nigga not doin'
I said fuck tryin' and not doin'
'Cause not doin' is somethin' a nigga not doin'
I grew up to Em, B.I.G., and Pac, bitch, and got ruined
So until I got the same crib B.I.G. had in that Juicy vid
Bitch, I can't mothafuckin' stop movin'
Go against me, you won't stop losin'
From the city where every month is May-Day at home, spray your dome
Niggas get sprayed up like A.K. was cologne for a paycheck or loan
Yeah, I know that shit ain't fair
They say Detroit ain't got a chance, we ain't even got a mayor
You write your name with a Sharpie, I write mine in stone
I knew the world was for the taking and wouldn't take long
We on, tryna be better than everybody that's better than everybody
Rep Detroit, everybody, Detroit versus everybody
I'm so fucking first class, I could spit up on every pilot
The city's my Metropolis, feel it, it's metabolic
And I'm over niggas saying they're the hottest niggas
Then run to the hottest niggas just to stay hot
I'm one of the hottest, because I flame drop; drop fire
And not because I'm namedroppin', Hall of Fame droppin'
And I ain't takin' shit from nobody unless they're OGs
'Cause that ain't the way of a OG
So I G-O collect mo' Gs, every dollar
Never changed though, I'm just the new version of old me
Forever hot-headed but never got cold feet
Got up in the game, won't look back at my old seats
Clique so deep we take up the whole street
I need a bitch so bad that she take up my whole week
Sean Don
[Bridge: Kendrick Lamar]
Miscellaneous minds are never explaining their minds
Devilish grin for my alias aliens to respond
Peddling sin, thinking maybe when you get old you realize
I'm not gonna fold or demise
I don't smoke crack, mothafucka, I sell it!
Bitch, everything I rap is a quarter piece to your melon
So if you have a relapse, just relax and pop in my disc
Don't you pop me no fucking pill
I'ma pop you and give you this
[Verse 2: Kendrick Lamar]
Tell Flex to drop a bomb on this shit
So many bombs, ring the alarm, like Vietnam on this shit
So many bombs, make Farrakhan think that Saddam in this bitch
One at a time, I line them up
And bomb on they mom while she watching the kids
I'm in a destruction mode if the gold exists
I'm important like the Pope, I'm a Muslim on pork
I'm Makaveli's offspring, I'm the King of New York
King of the Coast; one hand, I juggle them both
The juggernaut's all in your jugular, you take me for jokes
Live in the basement, church pews, and funeral faces
Cartier bracelets for my women friends, I'm in Vegas
Who the fuck y'all thought it's supposed to be?
If Phil Jackson came back, still no coaching me
I'm uncoachable, I'm unsociable; fuck y'all clubs!
Fuck y'all pictures! Your Instagram can gobble these nuts
Gobble dick up 'til you hiccup, my big homie Kurupt
This the same flow that put the rap game on a crutch
(West, West, West, West, West, West)
I've seen niggas transform, like villain Decepticons
Mollies'll probably turn these niggas to fuckin' Lindsay Lohan
A bunch of rich ass white girls looking for parties
Playing with Barbies
Wreck the Porsche before you give them the car key
Judgement to the monarchy, blessings to Paul McCartney
You called me a black Beatle, I'm either that or a Marley
(I don't smoke crack; motherfucker, I sell it!)
I'm dressed in all black, this is not for the fan of Elvis
I'm aiming straight for your pelvis, you can't stomach me
You plan on stumping me?
Bitch, I've been jumped before you put a gun on me
Bitch, I put one on yours, I'm Sean Connery
James Bonding with none of you niggas
Climbing 100 mil in front of me
And I'm gonna get it even if you're in the way
And if you're in it, better run for Pete's sake
I heard the barbershops be in great debates all the time
'Bout who's the best MC: Kendrick, Jigga, and Nas
Eminem, André 3000; the rest of y'all
New niggas just new niggas, don't get involved
And I ain't rocking no more designer shit
White T's and Nike Cortez, this red Corvette's anonymous
I'm usually homeboys with the same niggas I'm rhyming with
But this is hip-hop
And them niggas should know what time it is
And that goes for Jermaine Cole, Big K.R.I.T., Wale
Pusha T, Meek Millz, A$AP Rocky, Drake
Big Sean, Jay Electron', Tyler, Mac Miller
I got love for you all, but I'm tryna murder you niggas
Tryna make sure your core fans never heard of you niggas
They don't wanna hear not one more noun or verb from you niggas
What is competition? I'm tryna raise the bar high
Who tryna jump and get it? You're better off tryna skydive
Out the exit window of five G5's with five grand
With your granddad as the pilot, he drunk as fuck, tryna land
With the hand-full of arthritis and popping prosthetic leg
Bumpin' Pac in the cockpit so the shit that pops in his head
Is an option of violence, someone heard the stewardess said
That your parachute is a latex condom hooked to a dread
West Coast
[Verse 3: Jay Electronica]
You could check my name on the books
I Earth Wind & Fire'd the verse, then reigned on the hook
The legend of Dorothy Flowers proclaimed from the roof
The tale of a magnificent king who came from the nooks
Of the wild magnolia, mother of many soldiers
We live by every single word she ever told us
Watch over your shoulders, and keep a tin of beans for when the weather turns the coldest
The Lord is our shepherd, so our cup runneth over
Put your trust in the Lord, but tether your Chevy Nova
I'm spittin' this shit for closure
And God is my witness, so you could get it from Hova
To all you magicians that's fidgeting with the cobra
I'm solid as a rock, 'cause I came from a rock
That's why I came with the rock
Then signed my name on the Roc
Draw a line around some Earth, then put my name on the plot
'Cause I endured a lot of pain for everythang that I got
The eyelashes like umbrellas when it rain from the heart
And the tissue is like an angel kissing you in the dark
You go from blind sight to hindsight
Passion of the Christ, right, to basking in the limelight
It take time to get your mind right
Jay Electricity, PBS Mysteries
In a lofty place, tangling with Satan over history
You can't say shit to me, الحمد لله
It's strictly by faith that we made it this far
"Control" is a braggadocious attempt to revitalize the competitive spirit of the rap game.
Kendrick Lamar sent shockwaves across the internet with his verse that name-drops and takes no prisoners. His bold claims and aggressive spitting led to an onslaught of response tracks and interviews from rappers looking to prove themselves or inspired to step up their game.
Kendrick incites friendly competition by name-dropping J. Cole, Big K.R.I.T., Wale, Pusha T, Meek Mill, A$AP Rocky, Drake, Big Sean, Jay Electronica, Tyler, the Creator, and Mac Miller. When this song was released, Kendrick had collaborated with all of these artists except Tyler.
For Power 106, Kendrick broke down the "King of New York" line:
The irony of that line is that the people who actually understood it and got it were the actual Kings of New York, you know, me sitting down with them this past week, and them understanding, it's not actually about being the king of whatever coast, it's about leaving a mark as big as BIG, as big as Pac.
In an interview with VIBE, Big Sean said:
I knew what it was. I knew what it was for the culture of hip hop. You see how excited people are […] I wanted to do that for music, make that play happen. It gave me the feeling of how hip hop was, how it used to be.
Kendrick spoke about the song's impact with Power 106:
When I went in and did the verse, I thought I was just having fun. […] But I see how the world took it and flipped the media. I realized, okay, it has been ten, fifteen years before it's been some type of shaking up in the game.
In Terrace Martin's song "Get Bizy," Kurupt rapped:
Kendrick adopts the lines on this song:
I'm important like the pope, I'm a Muslim on pork
I'm Makaveli's offspring, I'm the King of New York

The menu didn't have names for their sushis, which was strange. But the prices looked reasonable for its set up and I was informed by the staff that they are having a 50% off for lunch time. This I believe are fried prawn head topped with mayo. The prawn heads were delicious and went surprisingly well with the nori seaweed and sushi rice. I wanted to have more but knew I would be too full after finishing up the rest of the plates.
Eel is also something I like very much and this unagi had the right flavours albeit generic. The maki also had a piece of faux crab which was cold. I thought it was an interesting combo but it would be better if the unagi was hot.
Again I had to somehow guess that this is fried squid. It really looks like something you'll buy from Carrefour's pre-cook section. It tasted blah and was overcooked, hence very chewy. I felt bad to put the plate back after much looking and sniffing and taking pictures.
I was hesitant to pick any salmon related sushi and maki because its freshness looked dubious, but I did anyway. A piece of raw salmon is used to wrap the rice and was topped of with mayo and ebiko. I had to say the salmon wasn't A-grade fresh but they were generous with the ebiko. I felt the mayo was too much though.
Since the ebiko from the previous plate tasted fine, I decided to go for the full ebiko sushi. I have to say being a new shop, they are generous with ingredients as compared to dull Sushi King. This was nice and I would have another plate if I wasn't getting full.
Lastly, I had this maki. Inside you'll find a piece of soft shell crab and topped with shredded faux crab and cucumber. I wished I had this sooner and forgo the fried squid. The crab inside still had some crunch to it.
To wash everything down I had refillable ice green tea. My bill came up to about RM18 after discount. Overall I felt this place might not last for long since the waitstaff are most foreign and had trouble understanding what the customer wants. Also, the freshness of its ingredients must be upgraded to be taken as a serious place for sushi in that area.

Mayor Anthony Williams in 2004. Williams leads the the Federal City Council, which has a a proposal to fix Metro: Blow up its founding document and start over. (Gerald Martineau/The Washington Post) By Robert McCartney November 19 at 5:50 PM Follow @McCartneyWP
Almost everybody agrees Metro's governance structure and finances are broken. But almost nobody agrees about the best way to fix them.
Metro Chairman Jack Evans favors a federal board to take over Metro. Other top officials said that would be hoisting a white flag of surrender.
D.C. Mayor Muriel E. Bowser (D) wants a regionwide sales tax to pay the bills. Maryland and Virginia say "wait" or "no way."
Now the Federal City Council, an influential business and civic group led by former D.C. mayor Anthony A. Williams, has joined the debate with a plan to rally the region around a proposal to start all over again. The best way to fix the troubled transit agency is to blow it up, the council says.
In an opinion article for Sunday's Washington Post, the council urges a rewriting of the Metro compact, or founding document. The amendments would shrink and professionalize Metro's board of directors, weaken union protections and require area governments to provide a reliable stream of funds.
"Without making extreme changes, we will perpetuate the degradation of the system, its safety and its benefit to the region," the article says. It was signed by two top area business executives, Robert J. Flanagan and W. Edward Walter. Flanagan is chairman of the Federal City Council, and Walter is its vice chairman.
[Federal takeover of Metro? Board chairman's proposal triggers debate but has some support.]
The proposal, issued after more than a year of study, serves as a guide to the structural problems that have contributed to Metro's troubles with safety, reliability, lack of maintenance and underinvestment.
Previous studies also have identified these shortcomings, such as a lack of a dedicated tax or other funding source, and a board of directors struggling with split loyalties to Metro and to the jurisdictions that appointed them to the board.
This reform effort may succeed where others have failed, because the council and Williams, its executive director, enjoy high regard throughout the region. Williams said in an interview that the council plans to solicit support from the region's employers, nonprofit organizations, transit advocates and others.
"We're out to build a coalition of the willing," Williams said. "We hope and believe that by the time we finish, we'll represent a consensus of the broad leadership across the DMV," he said, using the initials for the District, Maryland and Virginia.
But the initiative risks running aground on the same political shoals that sank earlier reform efforts.
In particular, union-friendly politicians in the District and Maryland are likely to resist the council's proposal to drop the requirement that disputes over labor contracts be settled through binding arbitration.
Such arbitration was put in the compact originally in exchange for unions' promise not to stage strikes. Critics say it has effectively guaranteed that labor costs rise with each round of negotiations.
Separately, Republican state legislators in Virginia have vowed to oppose tax increases that might be needed to give Metro a dedicated source of revenue. Even Fairfax County's top Democrat, Board of Supervisors Chairman Sharon Bulova, said the failure of this month's referendum on levying a meals tax in Fairfax was a strong sign that county voters also would reject higher taxes to fund Metro.
[Region's leaders split over a 1-cent regional sales tax to pay for Metro.]
Finally, there's the perennial challenge of getting all four jurisdictions responsible for Metro — the District, Maryland, Virginia and the federal government — to agree on anything big. Divisions among their representatives on the Metro board have repeatedly stymied progress there.
The Federal City Council has an unusual idea for breaking that impasse. It says the federal government ought to threaten to take over Metro temporarily by some specified date, perhaps in 12 months, if the city and the two states do not make the necessary reforms on their own.
The prospect of a takeover serves as "a sword or a heavy hand to come in and take the corrective action that you otherwise can't," Williams said. "If you can't come to a desired result, then you've got this kind of undesired alternative."
But it isn't clear that Congress or the incoming administration of President-elect Donald Trump would go along. Area officials said they have no idea what attitude Trump would have toward Metro, or whether Congress would be willing to get involved.
Trump has proposed a massive increase in spending on infrastructure, but much of the rest of the GOP would prefer to invest in roads rather than transit.
Spokesmen for Bowser, Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe (D) and Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan (R) said they had not seen the full proposal from the Federal City Council and could not comment. But Bowser's office said the mayor would support revising the compact under certain conditions.
"Opening the compact is worth it as long as negotiations are focused on safety, reliability, adding the federal government as a financial partner, and securing a regional, dedicated funding source," said Bowser's chief of staff, John Falcicchio.
[Metro sank into crisis despite decades of warnings.]
Evans, the Metro chairman, was enthusiastic that Williams, who usually prefers to work behind the scenes, was becoming publicly involved. He cited Williams's experience in helping to rescue the District from its budget crisis in the 1990s.
"Tony is very well respected," said Evans, who also is a Democratic member of the D.C. Council, representing Ward 2. "He was an architect of restructuring of the District's finances and governance. He would be a good ally in redoing the governance structure and financial structure of Metro."
The council echoed Evans's desire, expressed earlier, to reduce the number of Metro directors from 16 to make it easier to reach consensus. It also endorsed his proposal to fill the board with individuals who have professional experience in transportation or management, and who do not have divided responsibilities.
"There is a clear conflict between the roles of representing the jurisdiction and representing the [transit] authority — it's real," said Emeka Moneme, the council's deputy executive director. Moneme, a former District transportation director and Metro board member, oversees the council's work on transit and infrastructure.
Another Metro board member, Jim Corcoran, who also heads the Northern Virginia Chamber of Commerce, predicted that the proposal would get support from the region's business leaders.
"With a clear-cut and balanced presentation, I think the business community could certainly support changing the compact," Corcoran said.
A wary note was struck by Roger Berliner, chairman of the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments. He has been helping to lead an effort to obtain regionwide agreement on a plan for dedicated funding to be submitted to the Maryland and Virginia legislatures in early 2018.
[In safety and reliability, Metro ranks in middle of pack of nation's big systems.]
Berliner, who also is a Democratic member of the Montgomery County Council, representing Potomac-Bethesda, was concerned that a debate over the compact would distract attention from the push for reliable revenue.
"To the extent that other issues are put on the table, it makes obtaining dedicated funding dicier," Berliner said.
Williams said it was necessary to correct Metro's unwieldy governance structure to assure area jurisdictions that taxpayer funds would be well spent. Once the region agreed to commit more money, he said, the Republican-controlled Congress might be persuaded to contribute funds as well.
He said that the proposal to weaken labor protections would not lead to massive job reductions but that unions needed to make concessions.
"We're not talking about firing a lot of people, but we do think that everybody's got to contribute," he said.
Asked why he thought the Federal City Council's initiative could succeed where previous reform efforts have failed, Williams shrugged and said: "It's a big, heavy lift, but we do heavy lift here. That's what we do."
