Kingdom | Phylum | Class | Order | Family |
Animalia | Chordata | Chondrichthyes | Rajiformes | Urolophidae |
Scientific Name: | Urolophus armatus | |||
Species Authority: | Müller & Henle, 1841 | |||
Common Name(s):
Taxonomic Notes: | The holotype is the only known specimen (Séret and Last 2003). It could possibly represent a new genus (Séret and Last 2003). |
Red List Category & Criteria: | Data Deficient ver 3.1 |
Year Published: | 2006 |
Date Assessed: | 2006-01-31 |
Assessor(s): | Last, P.R. & Marshall, L.J. |
Reviewer(s): | Kyne, P.M., Fowler, S.L. & Compagno, L.J.V. (Shark Red List Authority) |
Justification: Known only from the holotype (a 17.4 cm total length immature male) collected in New Ireland, Papua New Guinea during 1822 to 1825. Surveys adjacent to this area have failed to locate additional material. Thus, it possibly has discrete habitat requirements within a very narrow geographic range. This species may be an indicator of restricted evolutionary processes and the existence of a discrete faunal unit in the area. There is little fishing activity in the locality and lack of habitat requirements make it difficult to predict where threats may come from, however oil and gold exploration in the region may pose a future threat by way of habitat degradation. The type locality is amongst one of the most poorly surveyed regions on earth, thus biodiversity surveys are urgently needed to evaluate habitat requirements, distribution and population size in order to establish an accurate level of threat. Potentially at risk by the nature of its restricted distribution, however the lack of available information precludes an assessment beyond Data Deficient at this time. |
Range Description: | Known only from New Ireland in the Bismark Archipelago, Papua New Guinea. Possibly has discrete habitat requirements within a very narrow geographic range. Surveys adjacent to the region have failed to locate additional material. |
Countries occurrence: | Native: Papua New Guinea |
FAO Marine Fishing Areas: | Native: Pacific – western central |
Additional data: | |
Range Map: | Click here to open the map viewer and explore range. |
Population: | Unknown. Biodiversity surveys are needed in this region to evaluate habitat requirements and population size. Potentially at risk by its restricted nature. |
Current Population Trend: | Unknown |
Additional data: |
Habitat and Ecology: | Nothing known of habitat, depth distribution or biology. Known only from one specimen, a 17.4 cm TL immature male, caught in New Ireland (Bismark Archipelago, PNG) (Séret and Last 2003). Likely to have low fecundity (1 to 2 young/year) as with other urolophid species (for example see White et al. 2001).
The type locality is amongst one of the most poorly surveyed regions on earth and this species may be an indicator of restricted evolutionary processes and the existence of a discrete faunal unit in this area. Life history parameters Age at maturity (years): Unknown. Size at maturity (total length cm): Unknown. Longevity (years): Unknown. Maximum size (total length cm): Unknown. Size at birth (cm): Unknown. Average reproductive age (years): Unknown. Gestation time (months): Unknown. Reproductive periodicity: Unknown. Average annual fecundity or litter size: Unknown. Annual rate of population increase: Unknown. Natural mortality: Unknown. |
Systems: | Marine |
Major Threat(s): | Limited based on the lack of fishing activity in this region. The absence of information on habitat requirements makes it difficult to predict where threats may come from, however oil and gold exploration in the general region could result in degraded habitat, the effects of which (for example, chemicals used in processing and potentially released in the environment) would need to be evaluated. |
Conservation Actions: | Urgent need to evaluate habitat requirements and distribution to establish accurate levels of threat. Given the morphological uniqueness of this species there is a need to establish its phylogenetic position within the family. |

In order to be eligible for the Academic All-Ivy League squad, a student-athlete must have at least a 3.0 cumulative grade-point average and be a starter or key reserve on his or her team.
On the men's side, Clayton Dahlman became the first Columbia men's squash player to earn the distinction. Dahlman was one of the team's captains for its inaugural varsity season, and played Nos. 2-3 for the Lions.
Brian Barbour was an honorable mention All-Ivy League selection for men's basketball and ranked ninth in the nation in free throw shooting percentage. Also earning the honor was junior 165-pounder Eren Civan who placed second at the Eastern Intercollegiate Wrestling Association (EIWA) Championships, and qualified for the NCAA Championships for the second consecutive year.
Dylan Isaacson was a member of the 4x800m relay team that won the 2011 Ivy League Indoor Heptagonal title. Rounding out the men's honorees was Hyun Lee who was the Ivy League champion in the 500 free, 200 free, 200 fly and 400 free relay, and won the Phil Moriarty Award as the High Point Swimmer of the 2011 Ivy League Championships.
On the women's side, Kathleen Barry earned the distinction after a successful senior season that saw her earn first team All-Ivy League honors for women's basketball. Lydia Kopecky was second team All-Ivy League and All-American in women's foil, and Katie Meili was a 2011 Ivy League Champion in 200 IM for women's swimming.
The women's track team led the way with two honorees in QueenDenise Okeke and Laura Vogel. Okeke was the 2011 Ivy League Indoor Heptagonal Champion in the triple jump, and Vogel was part of the 4x800m relay team that set a new school record.

NavTool Lockpick
Is anyone one using this version of the lock pick, and if so, please provide your feedback. Thank you.
http://www.navtool.com/cherokeevim.aspx |
Re: NavTool Lockpick
Looks very expensive compared to others...
Re: NavTool Lockpick
Agreed. I ordered a Lockpick v 5 from a company that stated it had it in stock. They were wrong and it is actually on back order, and the NavTool was offered to me for the same price. Or, I can wait for eventual delivery of the Lockpick I ordered. If forum users have experience with the NavTool, I figure I may go with that unit since the company is covering the difference in price.
Re: NavTool Lockpick
A little expensive but if they're covering the difference, take it. There was a member here or one of the other forums that used it and said he was happy with it. It worked for him just like a lockpick would have probably done, he had money to burn :)
I personally just bought from ebay, got it from the 12volt4less seller, shipped priority, just haven't gotten to the installation part. |
Re: NavTool Lockpick
i'm using one and i'm extremely happy with it,
i'm using their new version, picture in link is old version Not only product is MADE IN USA its also glitch-less compared to other devices. I have tried them all, they were cheaper and eventually I had to send them back cause they weren't working properly and messing with my radio, but NavTool Interface work like a charm and most important doesn't mess around with my radio compared to cheaper solution from Asia. |
Re: NavTool Lockpick
Thanks for reply. I received my unit with no instrutions, and there don't appear to be any for the new unit on the site. There are two harnesses, one w/a white connector that has the a/v and camera cables, the other gray. I take it the mygig cables are similarly colored white/gray? Also, I told them I have a 2012 Grand Cherokee. The unit has a sticker on the back that says"Jeep Compass VES." Was I sent the wrong unit? It seems there would be no difference but I don't know. Finally, what are the two buttons next to the usb port? I have an email to the company but thought I would ask.

When one person gets sick, it impacts everyone around them. Shortly after I got my diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis in 2007, I knew that I would have to share the news with my parents and siblings. These were calls I was not looking forward to making because I knew that RA would change their lives as well as my own. I knew this firsthand because my family had already had its fair share of dealing with health crises: my mother had her first bout with breast cancer in 2002, and more recently, my brother-in-law Jeff had sustained a traumatic brain injury (TBI) from a fall in early 2006.
Perhaps that's why I waited to tell my sister that I had RA last. It was awful telling my brother and parents I had a chronic disease, but my sister and brother-in-law were still in the process of figuring out their new post-TBI lives, and I hated to do anything to add to their stress or grief.
After all, two years had not yet passed since I had been the one on the other end of the phone, hearing the news from my mother that Jeff had fallen the night before. He had smacked the back of his head as he fell and was currently in the hospital, where he stayed with my sister by his side for several more weeks as his brain began a long and arduous healing process.
As with rheumatoid arthritis, most brain injuries remain stubbornly mysterious. There is usually no clear or certain timeline for recovery. All the doctors could tell them was that he would improve slowly, bit by bit. The enduring effects from his fall meant that he had trouble walking, near constant dizziness, horrible migraines, and spasms. Over time, some of these after-effects improved, but his and my sister's lives had been changed irrevocably.
I hated that I was about to give them another reason to worry - one more health crisis to contend with, and one that, like Jeff's TBI, didn't have a cure. My sister took the news in stride, at least on the phone with me. Although I know it must have been upsetting for her, she was nonetheless able to offer me support even as she struggled to help Jeff and herself.
As time went by and I began to figure out how RA impacted me day-to-day, I couldn't help but notice that Jeff and I often found our selves in the same boat. At family gatherings, we were often the first ones to tire out and have to rest or go to bed early. He understood what it was like for me to feel crummy all the time, because he did, too, and I could sympathize with his feelings of frustration at being limited in a way he hadn't been before. While the roots of our individual health issues were completely different, we were both dealing with chronic changes to our health and physicality. He had to navigate hallways and staircases carefully; I had to navigate a volatile energy supply and swollen joints.
I would never wish illness on anyone, but I had to admit there was a certain amount of comfort in having another family member who also struggled each day to feel better. Each of us knew what it felt like to no longer be able to do things we'd done before. But instead of sitting around all day and moping about it (though I'm sure both of us have had those days), we both found ways to turn our experiences into something constructive: I began writing and started my blog; Jeff picked up his guitar and started to write music again.
Looking back, I'm sure neither of us could have predicted where our creative endeavors would lead us. I certainly had no idea when I began blogging that I would end up becoming a spokesperson-of-sorts for RA. Jeff's reignited his musical-self, and began churning out dozens of songs- enough to begin putting together an album that is just about ready for release.
In the years since his fall and my diagnosis, we have both continued to weather good days and bad. We are fortunate to have a wonderful and strong family who can support us on the bad days and make the good ones count as much as possible. Having two people in our family with 'special' considerations has no doubt impacted all of us, but overall, I think that it has made us pull together more, and has given us a healthy perspective on what matters most: each other.
To listen to Jeff's music and read his own account on how his brain injury led him back to music, visit his website Cerebellum Blues.

Ike Update From TPWD: Game Wardens Complete Search and Rescue, Parks/Wildlife/Fisheries Staff Assess Damage
1 p.m. CDT — Update 7
Below is information sent by Texas Parks and Wildlife Department to the Governor's Press Office today. The governor's office is coordinating official communication about Ike for the State of Texas, including TPWD activities. The following information is provided as a service and convenience for TPWD's audience. For complete information, see the Texas governor's web site at http://governor.state.tx.us/, or news media may phone the press office at (512) 463-1826.
Texas Game Wardens/TPWD Law Enforcement Division
- TPWD has had approximately 200 game wardens and associated boats and equipment deployed for Hurricane Ike. Today, while some strike teams complete search and rescue in places like the Bolivar Peninsula, many game warden teams are turning to a law enforcement mission in other affected areas across Southeast Texas and East Texas.
- As part of a multi-agency response coordinated through the governor's office, game warden teams today are fulfilling local government requests for enforcement and assistance in Angelina County, Jasper County, Grimes County, Brazoria County and other areas.
- Today on the Bolivar Peninsula, 15 game wardens in seven airboats are completing search and rescue and loading airboats with food and water for people who may be still be stranded in flooded peninsula communities. The entire peninsula still under mandatory evacuation order, and TPWD teams are offering to take anyone who wishes to leave to safety.
- Saturday, Capt. Rod Ousley of the Beaumont office and eight game wardens worked in Bridge City and Orange with airboats. By 4 p.m. they had completed more than 50 rescues, plucking people from rooftops and second story windows, bringing them back to National Guard trucks.
- In Galveston, about eight game wardens normally based in that area continue to help patrol and search residential areas, using boats to navigate flooded streets in some cases.
- Dozens of other wardens based out of Region 4 in Houston are likewise continuing to search, rescue and assess damage in the counties and city areas they normally patrol.
Texas State Parks
- This morning, a total of 23 Texas State Parks remain closed due to Ike in Southeast and East Texas, down from 37 closures at the event's height. For the current list of park closures, see the TPWD Web site (tpwd.texas.gov/spdest/parkinfo/hurricane).
- Since the storm event began, 5,315 evacuees have been given shelter at 59 state parks outside of Ike's path. Evacuees from storm-damaged areas are allowed to tent camp or stay in RVs or campers at no cost in Texas State Parks, and they may stay in cabins or screen shelters at discounted rates. The latest information on parks closed or accepting evacuees is available through the TPWD Web site (tpwd.texas.gov/site/emergency). The public can also phone individual state parks to see whether a park is closed or accepting evacuees.
- Hurricane Ike delivered a powerful blow to Texas State Parks. Two coastal parks, Galveston and Sea Rim, sustained catastrophic damage. Structures and facilities at Sea Rim near Port Arthur appear to be a total loss. At Galveston Island, Ike caused heavy beach erosion and swept away the park headquarters building, restrooms, and shelters.
- Seven other state parks and the LaPorte regional office suffered significant damage ranging from downed trees and power lines to storm surge flooding and wind damage to buildings and facilities. These parks include Lake Livingston, Martin Dies, Jr., the San Jacinto Battleground / Battleship Texas, Huntsville, Daingerfield, Martin Creek Lake and Mission Tejas.
- Four state parks sustained moderate damage-Brazos Bend, Sheldon Lake, Village Creek and Caddo Lake. Three parks took only light damage-Goose Island, Mustang Island, Stephen F. Austin, Fanthorp Inn, Washington on the Brazos, Fairfield Lake, Tyler and Atlanta.
- The San Jacinto Battleground was significantly damaged by storm surge flooding and wind, with widespread downed trees and fencing. The park store and Battleship TEXAS restrooms were flooded, the site well house destroyed, among other damage.
- A fire Sunday morning at Mission Tejas severely damaged the approximately 1,000-square foot headquarters building (not a historic structure). Authorities and staff are looking into the cause, but it's possible an emergency electrical generator caught on fire.
- Wildlife Division staff assisted with search and rescue in Jefferson County at the request of local officials, and other staff are assessing damage to facilities and habitats in affected areas.
- Several Southeast Texas wildlife management areas near the coast where the landscape normally consists of wetlands, marshes and coastal prairies are all or partly underwater today, including the Murphree, Candy Abshier, Lower Neches and Hurst WMAs.
- At Murphree WMA near Port Arthur, the Jefferson County storm levee held back the storm surge, protecting WMA buildings from flooding. The levee can resist a 14 foot crest and staff report the area had 11 feet of seawater surge. One Murphree shop building was severely damaged by high winds, but other facilities are reported in relatively good shape.
- At Hurst WMA near Lake Jackson, the main office and bunkhouse appear to be in relatively good condition, with no apparent damage to equipment. A barn had doors blown off or other damage. One lean-to structure with deer blinds inside was destroyed.
- Northeast Texas WMAs suffered minor structural damage, such as sheet metal blown off of storage sheds at Engeling WMA. Alazan Bayou and Whiteoak Creek WMAs have no power. Flooding in low-lying areas and downed timber are widespread across the region.
- Aerial overflights are taking place today to assess ecological impacts and damage to various TPWD facilities. But longtime division staff member Jim Sutherlin had this to say from the Murphree WMA in Port Arthur: "The Murphree area looks like the Gulf of Mexico. Wildlife impacts to every thing that doesn't fly will be significant like it was back in the early 1960s with Hurricane Carla. I expect a great reduction in reptiles and amphibians, particularly alligators, but also snakes, frogs, all the things that move on the ground in the coastal plains. We need to assess the full impacts, and that will take some time. It will set plant communities back to very early successional stages, and we'll see big changes in the landscape when this water comes off, for a couple of decades. That's something we'll see as our careers mature, and the young people starting careers in wildlife ecology now will follow it as we followed Carla."
Coastal Fisheries
- The Coastal Fisheries Division, which maintains multiple offices, boats, laboratories and fish hatcheries on the coast, appears to have weathered the storm without major damage, except for flooding to rented office space in Port Arthur. The larger TPWD Dickinson office complex is in relatively good condition. Sea Center Texas in Lake Jackson sustained only minor damage.

PECOTA tackles a position where the offensive bar is set significantly lower than it was in last week's installment. Series introduction and methodology Here's a chart of production by position in 2013:
Last week, I talked about the offense required from first basemen to offset their negative positional adjustment. This week, we explore second base, whose occupants hit 20 points of True Average worse last season but produced the same total WARP. This demonstrates the defensive gap we're familiar with while also illustrating the low offensive bar for second basemen. One needed to produce a TAv of only .261 while playing average defense to be a "league average" second baseman last year (league-average TAv is always scaled to be .260). Gregor Blanco personified the league average hitter in 2013—and he had the 114th-best TAv out of 141 qualified batters.

MONTGOMERY | Gov. Bob Riley is offering a reward of $5,000 each for information about the slayings of two people who were shot to death in east Alabama last month.
The administration made the offer Thursday for information leading to an arrest in the killings of 38-year-old Jerome Brundage and 42-year-old Carol Oliver Dowdell on July 23.
The two were found dead in a home in Auburn. Authorities said the victims were boyfriend and girlfriend, whose bodies were discovered by relatives.
A child was also found in the home unharmed.

- - Wrapping legs after hard work
Wrapping legs after hard work 1 Attachment(s) I didn't want to hijack someone's thread. In the spring and fall I work as a vet assistant on the track. I catch urine and help bleed. Sometimes if the trainers are short and I'm not busy I will help cut racing bandages and wrap before they leave. I've been doing it for years and I'm good with the racers so the trainers that know me trust me. I've never wanted to bother them with my questions. For the wrapping, its usually a paste that looks and feels like plaster of Paris (but obviously isn't), then a layer of brown paper or plastic wrap, then standing pads then standing wraps or vet wrap. Would someone explain to me about what you put on the horses legs after the hard workouts? What is that plastery stuff? Why would some choose to put paper versus plastic on top of that? For someone not madly racing their horses, is this something a rider should ever consider doing? Is it a preventative or only done for some horses? Posted via Mobile Device |
The paste is meant to pull heat of the leg. Think of it as a ice pack on leg. It pulls heat out slowly so they have less chance of founder or further legs problems. Some people like plastic as it holds up a little better and will keep the paste there longer. Paper will sometimes suck up some of the paste...etc. |
The paste is generally some form of "mineral ice" (like people use) it is meant to pull out heat and tighten the leg. The paper vs plastic is for a few reasons- should the wrap slip or start to come off, the paper will generally tear, where plastic could bunch up and cause a pressure point and injuring the tendons. Another reason is the paper breathes better than plastic, if you are trying to draw heat out and it can't leave the bandage because plastic is holding it in, A. you are not accomplishing what you set out to and B. it could blister the horse's leg. That is why when "sweating" a horse's leg with furazone etc, you use saran wrap instead of paper, because you want to hold the heat in. Hope this helps! |
The clay pasty stuff is called a poultice. It helps draw out heat and any inflammation, keeps legs cool and tight after a workout. Wrapping with paper and plastic helps keep the poultice in place and from soaking into the bandage. Plastic would keep it moist longer, but hold in a bit of heat. Paper would dry a bit faster but any heat would pass through. I don't think there is a huge difference, mostly personal preference. Poulticing is not that common these days. I do eventing, and I rarely see anyone poultice at events anymore. It might be helpful for a horse that gets some minor inflammation after a hard workout, but some liniment and standing wraps would probably be just as effective, and then you don't have to spend 20 mins hosing it all off after it dries. I wouldn't poultice unless I had a very specific reason to. I think it used to be more of a go-to thing in the past, but now there's a lot of quicker and easier things you can do, so people are going away from that. Except the racing people, they do love their poulticing! :) |
1 Attachment(s) They do love poulticing at the track. That's why I was asking - I only ever see it used at the track. EVERY horse gets it done which made me think it was a 'must do' for all. Admittedly I've never asked my horse to gallop 3 miles and jump 18 huge timber fences but I was still feeling vaguely guilty that maybe I wasn't treating him right ;) I just lose it when it's my own horse I'm talking about (he's a precious snowflake dontcha know!) Posted via Mobile Device |
Haha yes poultice. I love it. I always poultice after a clinic, show or event or a cross country school. It works as a brace and prevents swelling and heat. I don't like it with plastic as I find it traps heat which defeats the whole reason we do it. The paper towel really just keeps the cottons/quilts clean :-) |
Lots of show/event people here use poultice regularly. I was always told though that you only use paper when you poultice and plastic for sweats. |
Back On Track is great if you can afford it. I have some BOT cottons but still like my poultice. Its tried, tested and true. |

With passionate basketball fans gearing up for an exciting tournament season, it's an ideal time for brands to capitalize on these events to reach massive audiences through strategic campaigns. With that in mind, here are three key tips to help marketers win big and engage fans this season.
Peggy Hageman
Oct 09, 2012
It wasn't so long ago that self-publishing was viewed as a bit, shall we say, déclassé. Distribution was often facilitated by the trunk of the author's car, and word-of-mouth was the only form of publicity. Thanks to ebooks, the internet, and the availability of digital publishing platforms, however, things are changing. The stigma of self-publishing has diminished, and even previously trade-published authors are giving it a try.
Some of the biggest publishers in the world are also getting into the self-publishing game, either with their own startups or by buying existing companies. In July 2012, Pearson, PLC bought Author Solutions for $116 million. Self-publishing is now big business.
There are numerous places to sell your ebook online-and almost as many platforms. You'll need to reformat your ebook for almost every different website. For those authors who don't have the knowledge or the time, the process of setting up all the different ebook formats and uploading to the various websites can appear daunting. But not to worry, there are companies out there who can do all that work for you, plus upload directly to the various outlets, and in some cases, sell your ebook.
Founded in 2002, Lulu Enterprises, Inc. was one of the first online self-publishing companies. It now sells a variety of services, but it's still possible to publish on its site for free. The company takes a 20% royalty on books sold, and the author sets the price.
Kobo, Inc.'s recently released DIY portal, Writing Life, allows you to publish and sell through its site for free. (Full-service publishing and other services will cost you.) Kobo will format and sell your ebook through its site and e-readers, but it will also give you your ebook in formats that other sites use. Mark Lefebvre, director of self-publishing and author relations at Kobo, explained that while the company hopes its authors will stick around when they see how much Kobo has to offer, it understands why writers want their work available on multiple platforms. Kobo has created some unique features available on its own platform such as the Author Notes Program, which can allow for a dialogue between readers and the author on the ebook pages themselves. And in Canada, Kobo e-reading devices are outselling Kindles almost two-to-one.
BookBaby, an offshoot of CD Baby, doesn't sell your ebook; it just does all the formatting work for you-for Kindle, NOOK, iPad, Sony, and even Kobo, with packages starting at $99. It will keep track of your accounting from all the different sites and offer payments on a weekly schedule. (You certainly won't get weekly royalties or even statements with a trade publishing house.)
The aforementioned Author Solutions, which calls itself the "the leading indie publishing company in the world," offers both print and ebook services to authors-including formatting along with other options, such as cover and interior design, publicity and marketing, website creation, and according to the website, even "television and infomercial advertising." In the past, Author Solutions has helped start self-publishing imprints for several large trade publishers, including Harlequin Enterprises Ltd. and Thomas Nelson, Inc. In 2009, Author Solutions purchased Xlibris Corp., another self-publishing company, which had previously been partially owned by Random House, Inc.
With more and more services being offered by more and more companies, options are growing for authors who choose to self-publish. However, is the line between self-publishing and vanity publishing becoming blurred? If you're spending far more than the book will ever earn, is it worth it? The "rah-rah, self-publishing is better than trade publishing, away with the gatekeepers" cry can sometimes smack of sour grapes. Choosing to go it alone only because you're afraid you don't have a shot in commercial publishing or because you don't want anyone editing or even changing a single word does a disservice to your book. I worry that there are books, particularly novels, which might have a chance with agents and publishers, but that will never live up to their true potential and are now getting lost in the sea of self-published material.
It's important to keep in mind why you're self-publishing. The majority of self-published ebook authors do not make much money. In May, The Guardian reported that half of self-published authors made less than $500 on their books in 2011. But that may be enough for authors who've struck out with the traditional route.

The Times is reporting Silver is taking his FiveThirtyEight franchise to ESPN.
The New York Times is reporting that Nate Silver is leaving The Times to join ESPN.
Silver, 35, is the statistician who gained fame for devising algorithms that accurately predicted the 2008 and 2012 presidential races. Silver is taking his FiveThirtyEight franchise to ESPN, where he will have a prominent role on the new Keith Olbermann show and also appear on ABC News during election cycles, according to Brian Stelter at TheNew York Times.
The Times brought in Silver and FiveThirtyEight in August 2010, but that contract is expiring, allowing ESPN to pick up the franchise and giving Silver an on-air platform in addition to his popular blog.
Silver's blog was a big traffic driver for The Times. New Republic reported in November that just before the 2012 presidential election FiveThirtyEight accounted for about 20% of the overall visits to TheNew York Times website.
Silver made his mark as a baseball statistician before joining The Times.

My blackberry curve 9360 was stolen a few days ago, i never synced it with my computer but I always backed it up on blackberry protect and i can access my data if i go to protect.blackberry.com and login with my blackberry ID. I see that my backup files exist but i cant download them, and i cant get a new blackberry at the moment but i really need all my contacts and their phone numbers, is there anyway that i could retrieve that information onto my macbook?
Solved! Go to Solution.
BB Protect backup files have only one use...to restore to a BB device. There is no other use of them. Hence the reason that BB Protect is a fine component of a good backup practice, but by no means should be considered to be the sole component.
If you can gain access to another BB, even for a short period, you can restore to it and then backup to your computer, from which you can obtain 3rd party apps to extract the local backup data to human readable format. However, I've never heard of those tools for MAC...but I also don't look for MAC stuff.
If you do attempt this (restore from BB Protect to another BB), you must be very careful...refer:
Good luck!
I had ever met the same problem as your, and I dont know how to do, and bought an iPhone 5 at last, I am looking for a solving way too, anyone who can help?

New Delhi: Aug 1, 2013
He has fielded all sorts of shots on the cricket pitch, but anchoring a travel-based show turned out to be a "nerve-wracking" experience for South Africa cricketing icon Jonty Rhodes, who will be seen as a host and travel guide on a TV show.
Titled "South Africa With Jonty Rhodes", the three-part mini-series will be showcased on NDTV Good Times and will feature Rhodes on a 15-day sojourn in South Africa.
"Fielding keeps you about 70 meters away from the camera, doing what I have practiced hours on end, so never felt I was being 'watched'! Quite different to being an anchor on 'South Africa with Jonty Rhodes' in front of the camera — something that was new to me, and rather nerve-wracking," Rhodes told IANS in an email interview.
However, he soon enough admitted he became accustomed to the job at hand.
"By Day 3, I was a lot more comfortable in the role," added the 44-year-old, who is the brand ambassador of South African Tourism in India.
For the show, four lucky viewers — three from Mumbai and another from Delhi — joined him on an all-expense paid for holiday across Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban and the picturesque Garden Route.
While the anchoring experience has been great for Rhodes, one wonders if he is now ready to get a taste of some dancing a la Sri Lankan cricketer Sanath Jayasuriya on an Indian dance reality show?
Rhodes quipped: "Sanath used to dance down the wicket and pulverise the bowlers, so he is accustomed to that! I was more about diving around the field, so would probably fall over on the dance floor!"
'South Africa With Jonty Rhodes' will go on air on August 12.
For the record, Rhodes was in Kerala earlier this year for an international surfing event.

We filled up with free tea, a cake or two and took shelter from a passing shower in a rather lovely teepee. With a tea dance, vintage stalls and all the tea you could wish for it was the perfect way to spend a bank holiday Sunday.

For over 30 years Scott Drake has produced high-quality Ford-licensed restoration parts for your Mustang.
Starting off with the Trunk Weatherstrip he made while still in high school for a shop teacher, today Scott Drake offers over 9,000 products making them the largest manufacturer of Mustang restoration parts around.
Currently based in Henderson, Nevada, just outside of Las Vegas, Scott Drake is expanding his restoration line to include late model Mustang parts under the Drake Muscle Cars name.
Today let's take a closer look at some of their products and the attention to detail Scott Drake puts into them.
Here we have a pair of reproduction kick panels for a '67 through '68 Mustang Coupe or Fastback. On this side here we have our standard reproduction; this is the Scott Drake piece here. You might be thinking it's only a plastic panel how different can they really be, but it's the details that's going to make the difference.
You take a look at your reproduction panel, you see it does have a texture to it but the texture's not correct for a Mustang. Take a look at the material itself; it's a very rigid plastic. Part of the Scott Drake where contour's normally correct, the plastic is much heavier grade and flexible like the original. On this close-up, if you can really see the contour difference between our Scott Drake piece and our standard reproduction. Just like the original, contours are very, very smooth on the Drake where they're very abrupt on the reproduction. This carries throughout the entire piece and across the center as well.
When installing your Scott Drake Kick Panels you'll be very happy for these reinforced bosses that are behind the mounting holes. Scott Drake pre-drills all their Kick Panels to make it much easier to install them. Compare that to your standard reproduction, putting only one small boss here, no hole drilled, and in the top there's no boss or hole. It could be a problem when you put it in because it could very easily crack the plastic.
The top of our Kick Panel you can see the section where the windlace actually comes in to the panel. If you look at the Drake piece the contour follows exactly the way the factory was designed. Look at our aftermarket, it's much larger that it needs to be, result in a little bit of a loose fit.
If you're looking for the best fitting, highest quality parts for either your restoration or your late model Mustang, make sure you check out our selection of Scott Drake products.

The Secret Life Of A Developing Country (Ours)
Forget your conventional picture of America in 1810. In the first half of the nineteenth century, we were not at all the placid, straitlaced, white-picket-fence nation we imagine ourselves to have been. By looing at the patterns of everyday life as recorded by contemporary foreign and native observers of the young republic and by asking the questions that historians don't think to ask of another time—what were people really like? how did they greet one another in the street? how did they occupy their leisure time? what did they eat?—Jakc Larking brings us a portrait of another Americna, an America that was so different from both our conception of its past life and its present-day reality as to seem a foreign country.
September/October 1988 | Volume 39, Issue 6
Before 1800, game—venison, possum, raccoon, and wild fowl—was for many American households "a substantial portion of the supply of food at certain seasons of the year," although only on the frontier was it a regular part of the diet. In the West and South this continued to be true, but in the Northeast game became increasingly rare as forests gave way to open farmland, where wild animals could not live.
Through the first half of the eighteenth century, Americans had been primarily concerned with obtaining a sufficiency of meat and bread for their families; they paid relatively little attention to foodstuffs other than these two "staffs of life," but since that time the daily fare of many households had grown substantially more diverse.
Remembering his turn-of-thecentury Kentucky boyhood, Daniel Drake could still see the mealtime scene at the house of a neighbor, "Old Billy," who "with his sons" would "frequently breakfast in common on mush and milk out of a huge buckeye bowl, each one dipping in a spoon." "Old Billy" and his family were less frontier savages than traditionalists; in the same decade Gov. Caleb Strong of Massachusetts stopped for the night with a country family who ate in the same way, where "each had a spoon and dipped from the same dish." These households ate as almost all American families once had, communally partaking of food from the same dish and passing around a single vessel to drink from. Such meals were often surprisingly haphazard affairs, with household members moving in and out, eating quickly and going on to other tasks.
But by 1800 they were already in a small and diminishing minority. Over the eighteenth century dining "in common" had given way to individualized yet social eating; as families acquired chairs and dining utensils, they were able to make mealtimes more important social occasions. Most Americans expected to eat individual portions of food at a table set with personal knives, forks, glasses, bowls, and plates. Anything that smacked of the old communal ways was increasingly likely to be treated as a sin against domestic decency. The clergyman Peter Cartwright was shocked at the table manners of a "backward" family who ate off a "wooden trencher," improvised forks with "sharp pieces of cane," and used a single knife, which they passed around the table.
"One and all, male and female," the observant Margaret Hall took note, even in New York's best society, ate "invariably and indefatigably with their knives." As a legacy of the fork's late arrival in the colonies, Americans were peculiar in using their "great lumbering, long, two-pronged forks," not to convey food to the mouth, as their English and French contemporaries did, but merely to keep their meat from slipping off the plate while cutting it. "Feeding yourself with your right hand, armed with a steel blade," was the prevalent American custom, acknowledged Eliza Farrar's elaborate Young Lady's Friend of 1836. She added that it was perfectly proper, despite English visitors' discomfort at the sight of a "prettily dressed, nice-looking young woman ladling rice pudding into her mouth with the point of a great knife" or a domestic helper "feeding an infant of seventeen months in the same way."
Mrs. Farrar acknowledged that there were stirrings of change among the sophisticated in the 1830s, conceding that some of her readers might now want "to imitate the French or English…and put every mouthful into your mouth with your fork." Later in the nineteenth century the American habit of eating with the knife completely lost its claims to gentility, and it became another relic of "primitive manners." Americans gradually learned to use forks more dexterously, although to this day they hold them in the wrong hand and "upside down" from an Englishman's point of view.
The old ways, so startlingly unfamiliar, to the modern reader, gradually fell away. Americans changed their assumptions about what was proper, decent, and normal in everyday life in directions that would have greatly surprised most of the men and women of the early republic. Some aspects of their "primitive manners" succumbed to campaigns for temperance and gentility, while others evaporated with the later growth of mass merchandising and mass communications.
Important patterns of regional, class, and ethnic distinctiveness remain in American everyday life. But they are far less powerful, and less central to understanding American experience, than they once were. Through the rest of the nineteenth century and into the twentieth, the United States became ever more diverse, with new waves of Eastern and Southern European immigrants joining the older Americans of Northern European stock. Yet the new arrivals—and even more, their descendants—have experienced the attractiveness and reshaping power of a national culture formed by department stores, newspapers, radios, movies, and universal public education. America, the developing nation, developed into us. And perhaps our manners and morals, to some future observer, will seem as idiosyncratic and astonishing as this portrait of our earlier self.

Re: Brian Urlacher retires after 13 seasons
Because the bar has been lowered so much in recent years, Urlacher will make it to the HOF, hopefully on his 2nd try. I think he was more of the Mike Curtis / Ted Hendricks competence level, i.e. very good, but not true HOF calibre. Playing in the NFL's 2nd largest city boosted his image, but not his abilities.
In a 2003 BBC poll that asked Brits to name the "Greatest American Ever", Mr. T came in fourth, behind ML King (3rd), Abe Lincoln (2nd) and Homer Simpson (1st).

Hey Guys,
I've been off the forum for awhile but im back on because I have some questions for you. I'm looking for a headphone that does soundstage very well. I want to feel that I am there, jamming with my favorite artists. But I also have a very limited budget. $70 is my AT MOST PRICE. I've heard great things about the ad700 but that's out of my budget. I've also heard about the takstar hi 2050 and ts 671 which are both open cans. I will use these cans for music that has great soundstage so SOUNDSTAGE IS A MUST!!
If anyone could help, it would be greatly appreciated.

Juicy J Taps Wiz Khalifa, Trey Songz for 'Bounce It' Remix
'Bounce It' is one of the catchier tracks on Juicy J's 'Stay Trippy,' an album serving as a trip through hedonistic pleasures and excess. There's a little more of that injected with fervor into the two remixes, which replace Wale with Taylor Gang leader Wiz Khalifa and keeps Trey Songz on hook duties.
One version has percussion that knocks slightly harder as vocal chants demand some twerking. The remix sounds more aggressive, but Wiz Khalifa takes the show with an impressive liquid delivery and wise guy quips. "Trying to show up for the cameras / Bitch your ass ain't fatter than Amber's / She keep talking she wanna do me and her," Khalifa informs.
If twerking occurred in outer space, it would probably sound close to 'Bounce It (Remix 2.0).' The emphasis on the overriding bass is replaced for an EDM feel as twinkling keys open the festivities here.
Even as the track is being bombarded with all those electronics, Juicy is still slicker than K-Y Jelly while Trey Songz follows his lead and absolutely refuses to say no to "ratchet p—-." All in all, it sounds like a way better time than the predicament the poor young fellow in the 'Stop It' video found himself in.
