We also made changes to the driveability governors that allow for an improved coasting performance.

Objective: To prove that an old schooler can keep up with the new-school squad.
Past Experience: Originally from Survivor: The Australian Outback (Season 2), Kimmi has remained a well-known castaway for a particularly memorable moment when things got heated between her and Alicia Calaway over... chickens. It was a finger-wagging fight that had this vegetarian more than frustrated. With no real alliance on her side, Kimmi finished 12th but wasn't easily forgotten.
Accomplishments: Kimmi's been this season's social butterfly. Though she hasn't won any Individual Immunity idols, her bonds with most of the castaways have benefited her greatly. Her keep-it-real attitude helped sway many minds to vote with her for several weeks, and even resulted in the outing of Kass, Stephen, and Joe. She might just be this season's Queen of the Blindside.
Skills: Keeping a low profile, outgoing, savvy.

How would you prove that
$$\operatorname{ord}_N(\alpha) = \operatorname{lcm}(\operatorname{ord}_p(\alpha),\operatorname{ord}_q(\alpha))$$
where $N=pq$ ($p$ and $q$ are distinct primes) and $\alpha \in \mathbb{Z}^*_N$
I've got this:
The order of an element $\alpha$ of a group is the smallest positive integer $m$ such that $\alpha^m = e$ where $e$ denotes the identity element.
And I guess that the right side has to be the $\operatorname{lcm}()$ of the orders from $p$ and $q$ because they are relatively prime to each other. But I can't put it together, any help would be appreciated!

Glossary: Neoliberalism
Neoliberalism commonly refers to a set of free market ideas that became the dominant economic philosophy following the crisis of the 1970s. (The "liberalism" in neoliberalism refers to the classical liberalism of the 19th century founded on the thought of John Locke, Adam Smith, and others who advocated a strictly limited government, an unregulated market, and negative political liberties like freedom of speech. It should not be confused with American left liberalism of the 20th century, which it actually repudiates.) Drawing on 20th century critiques of government intervention in the economy by figures like Friedrich von Hayek and Milton Friedman, neoliberalism counseled an end to the welfare state and government regulation, blaming them for social ills ranging from the breakdown of the family to unemployment. Neoliberalism sees market forces as nearly infallible in achieving optimal outcomes, distributing resources in the most efficient manner and allotting income to those who actually create the wealth.
Government policies pursued under neoliberalism included privatization, deregulation, balanced budgets, floating exchange rates, free trade, and the free movement of capital. Corporate power dramatically increased at the expense of both workers and consumers as labor unions in the advanced market economies (especially the United States) were decimated by offshoring of production, corporate taxes and regulations were slashed, and countries competed to attract production by offering the most favorable terms to corporations. Overall, this resulted in lower growth rates and higher rates of unemployment in the advanced market economies of Europe and North America, as well as in Latin America and Africa, compared with those achieved in the 1950s and 1960s. However, it also facilitated rapid if inequitable economic growth in East Asia (especially China) and increasingly in India as well.
A broader use of the term neoliberalism includes the above features, but extends its meaning to cover an entire way of life. Superficially, the cultural and intellectual trends of the last 40 years may seem to have nothing to do with free market dogma, but some would argue that the two are intimately connected - both produced by a new experience of the world under the changed circumstances that followed the crisis of the 1970s. Everything from postmodernism to the revival of Christian fundamentalism, from game theory to evolutionary biology, from a new kind of consumerism centered on entertainment rather than consumer durables, to new forms of resistance like the Black Bloc - all of these can be understood as products of the neoliberal era. This blog will attempt to explore some of these connections.
It remains an open question whether the current crisis signals the end of neoliberalism. Certainly the political response to the crisis looks a lot like an intensification of neoliberal economic policies - perhaps surprising since it was the contradictions of the neoliberal system that gave rise to the crisis. Yet the major crises of capitalism over the last century have all been marked by a doomed attempt to use the familiar tools even after their efficacy had ended: think of Hoover's response to the Depression, or Nixon's resort to wage and price controls. One of our goals in this blog will be to understand why that should be so, and another will be an examination of the new ways of thinking that must necessarily come out of the crisis.

I think that it is important to remember that neoliberalism was adequate to certain dimensions of society for a period. It successfully responded to the stagflation crisis of the 1970s and to the increasingly intense international competition for market share. (The crisis of Keynesianism and State Capitalism is something that figures like Krugman would rather ignore.) We must explain, as Harvey endeavored to, what about the functioning of capitalism generated this ideology and what made it seem adequate. This crutial period of the 1970s serves as an origins story for neoliberalism, with Reagan being the god-man. It is for this reason, that all economic crises-- even crises with the opposite tendencies like the present threat of deflation and the actual deflation of the Great Depression-- are viewed through the lens of inflation.ReplyDelete

One aspect, you neglect to mention, which is important for understanding the political geography of the United States, is the almost complete de-legitimization of the word "socialism" as a positive political category.ReplyDelete
What we have to ask is why the word socialism has been delegitimized. Something about the experience of neoliberalism rules out the kinds of sociality that even vulgar kinds of socialism assume, so people find the idea laughable if not pernicious. Where the inquiry should focus is what it is about our social experience under neoliberalism that is producing those underlying ideas, which also lie at the base of a lot of other ideologies and forms of common sense generated by neoliberalism.ReplyDelete

What's the slowest vehicle in Japan? Suigo Meguri in Omihachiman
There are 4 boarding points in the Omihachiman area and I was at Kitanoshocho.
There is a thatched house on a platform because of its location on the lake. You can wait for the boat here and you'll also find a room inside for the rowers. There is a picture on the wall that says, "This is the slowest row boat, Suigo Meguri"!
Let's get on board!
Once the boat arrives at the port, you get on after taking off your shoes. The boat has a roof to protect you from the sun. It also has a red lantern, but it's an imitation which doesn't actually work. 6 to 8 people can fit on one boat and the boat departs twice a day at 10:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. You can reserve a seat and also choose from three different routes. In this case, you can also decide on the departing time.
You can watch rare birds on the lake.
As the boat proceeds, you'll see the bed of reeds. I could see some herons and a Grebe floating on the water, which the rower kindly told me the name of. There are many Grebes (Nihonoumi) on lake Biwa. The Grebe is designated as Shiga's prefectural bird. You'll commonly see Grebes while touring on Suigo Meguri that are considered a rare species.
Suigo Meguri shows you different scenery according to each season.
It was so relaxing touring on the calm water and seeing many the rice fields without any electrical poles obstructing my view. I passed by people on a boat enjoying fishing and a waterway leading to a rice field. Suigo Meguri shows you Japanese life as well as the wildlife that live there. You can see many different flowers like cherry blossoms and rapeseed flowers, depending on the season. You can enjoy many different areas by departing from different ports.

Gears of War 2
The initial Gears of War introduced us to Sera, a planet containing a group of warriors who fight to preserve their race and once again make their world safe. Preventing them from doing this is the Locust, a race of aliens ardently seeking to bring down the Coalition of Ordered Governments.
The second chapter in this universal saga has begun. The events of the first chapter ended with Dom and Marcus delivering the bomb into The Hollow. Unfortunately, the bomb did not have much of an effect, and now the Locust have doubled in size. Only one city remains standing and ready to fight back: Jacinto. Your time is now to protect that city from total destruction and keep the hope in humanity's survival.
Gears of War 2 is a vastly more involving and engaging story. The creators have, for the most part, succeeded in making a deeper storyline, while also fleshing out some other side characters. Throughout the story, much more is revealed about the Locust. The central focal point of the story is Dom's search for his wife, Maria.
Everything that has been changed is an improvement. The levels are kept fresh and constantly intriguing by adding originality to each environment, while staying true to the source material. There are a variety of new moves that act well in the core of the game play. The environments that are presented throughout the game look spectacular.
A different composer created the music this time, but it still retains the original feel, and even pumps up the excitement to a new level. The Campaign mode in Gears of War 2 is unbelievable, and keeps the player continually interested in what will happen next.
There are fifteen maps. They present familiar territories, but have a smoother look then the first and have better lighting. The online gaming presents a variety of fun, including the very intense five-on-five game play.
Overall, Gears of War 2 remains consistently engaging and brings a multiplayer area that will keep people busy for quite some time. The graphics are top-notch, and better then most, if not all other games out there. This 2nd chapter in the Gears of War universe will exceed expectations and keep any player excited and waiting for more once its done.

"The Golden Cage," as Big Brother was originally called, was originally hatched by John De Mol, Bart and Paul Romer. The idea had stemmed from a 1991 experiment shot in the Arizona desert: "Biosphere 2."
In "Biosphere 2," 8 men and women lived together in an air-tight glass and steel geodesic dome that tried to replicate Earth's environment.
Orwell's descendants sued, how about that? The payment was never revealed.
Upon the show's original announcement, an ethical debate arose. Could such a show be decent and in good taste? What about showering and the toilet? What if participation caused mental damage? (The latter question arose after Sweden's "Expedition Robinson" show aired: the first contestant voted off actually suicided. His family blamed the public, claiming he felt rejected and unpopular.
Not everyone had a negative opinion, of course. A professor of clinical psychology thought the show could actually produce insights not possible to achieve any more in socio-psychological research because the psychological well-being of the participants had been given greater importance. A psychophysiologist actually said that the show was "a wet dream of a psychological researcher. Nowhere in the world an ethical commission will be found that would agree to such a design," A. Gaillard of the Netherlands Organization for Applied Scientific Research.
In the UK, BB was marketed as a 'social documentary offering the audience to get 'pore close' to the experimental subjects: in the USA, participants have described the show as 'an experiment in human behavior and strategic planning." Viewers in one study felt that 'watching and commenting on Big Brother tells us a lot about ourselves: how we judge people, what our values are in relationships. How we interact with others and how we would handle relationship dilemmas if put in a similar situation." (History of Participatory Media: Politics and Publics, 1750-2000.)
The Aussies continually stress the experimental nature of the show: I have watched season after season, and heard that sentiment many times. Many USA viewers will agree that the show is indeed a social experiment, evidenced by the 'live feeds' on the Internet that only Big Brother provides.

With a New Face on the Old Russian Capital, Moscow Turns 850
|During Moscows 850th anniversary
celebration millions of people were received into the
city, including 167 delegations from different regions of
Russia, and the CIS. Several large construction projects
were completed in time for Moscows celebration. One
of them was Luzhniki Stadium, one of the largest stadiums
in Europe, which is covered with a unique dome style
roof. A similar modern dome will cover "Gostiny
Dvor", the shopping center which was originally
built in the 18th century. This dome style roof is the
only such ever built on a structure over 200 years old
and covering a span of almost 6.2 acres. Although the
celebration is over the government keeps working on
projects which aim to make the city more attractive and
interesting for visitors. The idea is to build an
infrastructure which will help Moscow as a tourist
destination become a "must see" on every
travelers list.

The most potent dose used reduced average daily pain scores by 0.7 points on an 11-point scale (5.4 versus 6.1 with placebo, 95% confidence interval for difference 0.02 to 1.4), according to Mark A. Ware, MBBS, of McGill University in Montreal, and colleagues.
Those who smoked weed with 9.4% of the active ingredient tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) also reported sleeping better, the researchers reported online in CMAJ.
These results are important in light of the fact that patients who hear about pain relief from ongoing publicity about medical marijuana have had only a "trickle" of evidence to prove it, explained Henry J. McQuay, DM, of Oxford University, in an accompanying editorial.
Action Points
- Explain to interested patients that smoking marijuana modestly reduced pain and other symptoms of chronic neuropathic pain.
- Explain further that the role of marijuana in the treatment of chronic pain remains controversial and is not currently endorsed by federal authorities.
"If medical cannabis is not available where a patient lives, then obtaining it will take the patient outside of the law, often for the first time in his or her life," he wrote. "Good evidence would at least buttress that decision."
These quality results along with three other trials of smoked cannabis for neuropathic pain do support an analgesic effect that, "though not great, may be of use to some patients," McQuay concluded.
This study does offer hope since few drugs have proven effective in these patients, commented Steven P. Cohen, MD, who as director of pain research at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C., sees chronic pain in most of his patients with major war injuries.
However, the magnitude of the pain relief from smoking marijuana was less than expected compared with those few effective drugs, Cohen noted in an e-mail to MedPage Today and ABC News.
"When considered in the context of the higher incidence of minor and serious side effects with medical marijuana, cannabinoids should remain a third or fourth line drug for neuropathic pain," he wrote.
A bigger concern remains the "delivery system," which is substantially worse than tobacco cigarettes due to prolonged exposure to marijuana smoke from holding it in the lungs, commented Timothy A. Collins, MD, of Duke University's Pain and Palliative Care Clinic.
"As a physician, I don't think I would ever encourage a patient to smoke anything," he said in an e-mail.
Some states, such as California and New Jersey, have made marijuana "legal" for medical use, but this conflicts with federal law, and the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency doesn't recognize its legality in those states.
"In states where there is no 'medical marijuana law' patients buy marijuana from criminals (drug dealers)," Collins added. "For pain patients this becomes a problem, as they are already on desirable prescription pain medications and subject to pressure to trade prescription narcotics for marijuana."
For the new study, Ware's group randomized 23 adults with chronic post-traumatic or postsurgical neuropathic pain to receive cannabis at a potency of 0%, 2.5%, 6% or 9.4% THC over four 14-day periods in a crossover trial.
The patients inhaled a single 25-mg dose through a pipe three times a day for the first five days in each cycle, then had a nine-day washout period before going on to the next randomized potency.
The intermediate doses yielded pain relief between the 0% THC placebo and the full-strength 9.4% dose. However, none were significantly effective compared with placebo.
Among the secondary effects, patients reported falling asleep more easily (P=0.001) and more quickly (P<0.001) with a greater feeling of drowsiness (P=0.003) and less wakefulness (P=0.01) while on 9.4% THC compared with placebo.
Mood and quality of life overall, though were unaffected.
Marijuana smoking appeared well tolerated, although the researchers noted that this may have been affected by the fact that most patients reported prior experience -- although not recent or extensive -- with the drug as an early ethics requirement to enter the study.
Patients rarely got high on the single hit they took through a pipe three times a day as part of the study, Ware's group noted.
None of the analgesic doses got plasma levels even halfway to the typical level seen among recreational users, they explained.
The most common drug-related adverse events associated with the most potent dose included headache, dry eyes, burning sensation in areas of neuropathic pain, dizziness, numbness, and cough.
Collins cautioned that marijuana bought on the street, not through medical-use prescription, varies widely in potency, making the study results of unclear generalizability to the average user.
This article was developed in collaboration with ABC News.
The trial was supported by a grant from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research and by the Louise and Alan Edwards Foundation for pharmacokinetic assays.
The researchers declared that they had no conflicts of interest.
McQuay reported having been a member of advisory boards for Reckitt Benckiser, Pfizer, and Archimedes; a consultant to Esteve, Sanofi and Archimedes; and an expert witness for Ratiopharm and Sandoz. He reported having received payment for lectures from Archimedes and Grunenthal and royalties for a textbook on the subject of pain.

Liver casserole (maksalaatikko in Finnish) is a great dish, one of my favorites (especially this brand). Besides tasting delicious, it conducts electricity quite well. Maybe it is true what they say about liver containing lots of iron...
Good conductivity is good news for us CW operators: Morse code can be sent using the liver casserole as a telegraph key. A keying cable with alligator clips and a metal fork is needed.
Find clean locations on the aluminium edge and the fork and connect the alligator clips. Then connect the cable to your CW transmitter or audio oscillator. Touch the food with the fork to make CW signals, like in this video clip (I was trying to send fast because I was hungry and eager to start eating my key):

I can't believe I haven't wrote about this until now. This is something that I've been thinking about for months now.
But first, let's talk a little about the storage business, something you're probably only familiar with from the greatest show of all time, Storage Wars. Okay, worst show of all time. Who knew storage lockers always had at least one interesting item in them?
It's essentially another way to invest in real estate. Most storage businesses these days are set up so folks storing their crap can have 24/7 access to the place, just in case grandma feels the need to fondle her nick-knacks. Just kidding. Grandma is dead. WILL 2016 EVER END? WHY DOES THIS YEAR KEEP KILLING PEOPLE?
A small storage business only needs a part-time manager, while one that's a few hundred units will probably shell out the extra cash to hire someone full-time to run the place. There are a few things to do like keep the place clean and whatnot, but for the most part it's passive income. Many people pay for years before throwing up their hands and letting Dave Hester buy it for pennies on the dollar.
The storage business isn't just about lockers, at least up here in Canada where every approximately 76% of us have decided having an RV is a good use of capital. There are plenty of people who not only pay maintenance costs and depreciation on an RV, trailer, or fifth wheel, but they also pay to store said monstrosity. This continues to boggle my mind, but there's no indication the "camping" trend is going away.
The storage business I'm looking at
You kids want the deets, huh? Well, guess what? YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE DEETS.
Yeah, that's right. I'm on the cutting edge of pop culture here. That joke was so bad Italics Man just offed himself.
No I didn't.
Well, you should have.
This storage business is small and relatively simple. It consists of (with monthly rents in brackets afterwards):
- 8×10 locker ($95)
- 8×10 locker ($95)
- 8×20 locker ($135)
- 8×16 locker ($125)
- 8×12 locker ($95)
- 8×12 locker ($95)
- 14×24 garage ($150)
- 8×20 shed ($95)
- 15 RV rental spots ($25)
As is, when fully rented, this place has the potential to churn out some pretty serious income. It could do $15,120 in annual rent. Since there aren't many expenses besides property taxes — which are about $1,200 a year — we're looking at profit of around $13,000, give or take.
There's just one problem. The place isn't close to full. Half of the storage lockers are vacant. I'm told the RV part of the business is consistently full. So approximate rental income is about $10,000.
The big appeal is potential. Income could go up by 50% by just filling the four vacant storage units. And according to the seller, there's room for an additional 21 RV lots. I'm not sure I buy that there's that much potential for expansion — because, frankly, adding additional RVs seems about as easy as saying "sure, you can park here in exchange for money" — but I did go check the place out and there's definitely some extra room. Let's say there's room for 8 more to be conservative.
Thus, total revenue potential looks something like this:
- 8 lockers/sheds/garages — $10,620
- 23 RV spots — $6,900
- Total — $17,520
That's best case scenario. Let's do one more set of calculations at what I'd consider to be a realistic "best case," at 80% occupancy:
- 8 lockers — $8,496
- 23 RV spots — $5,520
- Total — $14,016
So we have something that generates approximately $10,000 per year today in annual revenue, with the potential to grow it between 20% and 40%. The current owner does a pretty poor job of advertising the place, with nothing but a sign in front and an ad in the local paper. I think an additional $500 per year would easily increase the top line by $1,000 or $2,000. Nobody really knows the place exists today.
How much is it worth?
It started out for sale at $115,000, which was way too rich for my blood, even though it represented a cap rate of close to 8%. It has since been reduced to $95,000.
Here's the way I look at the storage business. This place is, admittedly, a small-time operation. All it would take for somebody to run serious competition is having a bit of land and some capital available to buy a couple of Sea Cans. Those aren't expensive either; they can be bought used for about $4,000, including delivery.
I'm also concerned about the future of the business. Minimalism is very much a thing today. Although I think this does change somewhat as many minimalists start having families, the trend is clearly towards having less stuff, not more. Although that may just be a product of my environment. Go ahead, ask your normal friends about minimalism. They'll look at you like you're a crazy person.
So I need a succulent return before I'm going to venture into such a thing.
I'm thinking I need a minimum of 12% after property taxes, preferably closer to 15%. I need a margin of safety to get into the storage business. It's just too easy to compete.
How much can I pay? Here's a table looking at return rates using today's income ($10,000 – $1,200 in property taxes) and realistic potential income ($14,000 – $1,200 in property taxes).
|Return (on today's income)
|Return (on potential income)
Ultimately, it comes down to what I can earn from the place. If I think $14,000 in annual rental income is realistic, then I could pay up to $100,000 for it. If I'm being cautious, I want to base what I pay on today's income. A purchase price of between $70,000 and $75,000 would be the better choice.
Let's wrap it up
The good news, for me, is that this place has been for sale for months now, assuming somebody hasn't gone ahead and bought it while I've sat on my hands. It's already been reduced by $20,000, showing there's some motivation there. And let's face it; there's a certain amount of work that comes from running a storage business.
I'll turn it over to you kids in the comments. Tell me if you'd buy this and if so, what price you'd pay for it.

If there's been one overwhelming constant in feedback from the student community at Miami, it's that it feels like The Miami Student's coverage of alcohol use on campus is personal. It's an attack on the students. It's an affront to their culture, to the release that they take in hanging out with their friends. It's an insult to what they like to do. It's elitist. It's inconsiderate.
We'll be the first to admit that the coverage of alcohol on and off campus in these past few weeks has been extensive. But we keep writing about alcohol at Miami because it's still relevant. It's that simple.
Maybe you don't think alcohol here is a problem — but it's likely you'd agree that other things are.
Sexual assault on college campuses, for example, are often mitigated by the use of alcohol. The Washington Post reports that 8 in 10 students believe that drinking less would be an effective way to prevent sexual assault. According to a Campus Sexual Assault Study by the National Institute of Justice, alcohol is the substance used most frequently to facilitate sexual assault. And according to a study done in conjunction with Wayne State University, 50 percent of all sexual assault cases involve alcohol. According to that same study, 74 percent of attackers and 55 percent of the victims of rape in college were drinking.
Or maybe you have more of a problem with violence than you do with alcohol. In a study from the World Health Organization, 55 percent of instances of intimate partner violence started with the attacker drinking alcohol.
Additionally, the issue of alcohol's impact on students' academics cannot go without mentioning. Confirming what almost everyone that that knows anything about college could tell you, a study published by the National Center for Biotechnology Information in 2013 found that "academic performance in comparison with peers was negatively associated with heavy episodic drinking." For a campus that drinks more than the national average for colleges, these facts can only spell negative results.
These facts are disconcerting as statistics, but disgusting as real examples that have occurred on campus over the past few weeks. Sexual assault, violence and even death have all resulted from alcohol abuse or environments conducive to alcohol abuse this winter, and we have not even gotten to spring break yet. Truly, it is a disturbing time.
The point in all this, though, is not to lament the ideas of drinking and socializing in general. Rather, it is a call upon students and others to recognize the damage that can been done when people go too far in consuming mood-altering substances. Simply put, too much of a good thing can indeed be very bad.
As we have said before, the duty rests upon the individual to change the culture and mindset surrounding blackout drinking on this campus. Friends, families and anyone who has an influence need to stand up and say what should be in all students' minds: that having three or four servings of alcohol over the course of an evening is a far better alternative to having 10 or 12. Sure, most kids learn the murky art of drinking in college. Yet, Miami seems to teach drinking without regard of limitations.
It is indeed a lofty goal to try and change a culture that has been alive for decades, but at least part of the solution can be as simple as passing on advice: drinking less could go a long way.

Since all other background properties apply, the background image should still appear behind -- but there is no way to indicate preferred position of the background image. Having said that, I admit to not remembering why 'background-position' doesn't apply to all elements. > The problem which can come up is what to do with broken line boxes. > > WinIE4 supports 'background-position' even with inline elements > (over-support of the spec?!), and gets around the problem by simply not > drawing the background if the line box splits. > > I suggest the 'background-position' property be expanded to apply to > everything, with behaviour at line breaks being left up to the UA designer. So you would treat the first line box as a block-level element, and the background position would be undefined for the rest of the line boxes? That sounds reasonable. Here are some alternatives: - leave it as is since it's too late to enforce interoperability and there's no single obvious good solution - say that background-attachment on inline elements is relative to the containing block (which is CSS2-speak for (in most cases) the "parent element") - say that background-attachment on inline elements is relative to the respective line boxes that are created. The last proposal is a slightly more restricted variation of your suggestion.

Today we take a wonderful stroll down Memory Lane with Willie Espinosa.
It's the latest installment in our ongoing "We Are San Bernardino" project.
As you know, I'm asking real people to tell their real stories about their lives and times in San Bernardino. These are the kinds of stories that remind us that San Bernardino is worth fighting for. And that's just what we need right now in this embattled city.
Willie Espinosa is a resident of Yucaipa now, but she grew up in San Bernardino and lived and worked in the city for more than a half-century starting in the 1920s. And what a half-century it was! Here's her story:
I am 89 and came to San Bernardino with my parents at age 4.
I grew up on Church Street which was between E and D streets. It exited on E Street at Pioneer Park. That was such a pretty place. In summer my mother would take us over there to play and get away from a house with no air conditioning.
I walked the alley between the California Hotel and Pioneer Park to school. It was no problem for a girl to walk to school alone.
When we moved here from Texas we thought we were in heaven. My dad worked at the car sales and garage building on D and Church.
The trolley car ran on the track on D Street.
Meadowbrook Park was a long walk, but oh so cool. A large cold stream, with clean clear water, ran all the time.
San Bernardino was a dream. It had everything. We moved up to the Del Rosa area when I was 11, but when I was old enough, all my jobs were downtown. I worked as an usher at every movie theater in town — all of them from the Temple to the Rialto to the Coast. My favorite was the Fox on Court Street. I worked in the box office at 17.
I also did my stint in Woolworth's!
On Saturdays we Del Rosa teenagers would hike up to Arrowhead Springs. There was a creek that we walked in (if it was a hot day!). We did not disturb one rock, bush, road, fence or parking lot. We at that time were very aware of others' property and privacy.
But we did know a certain fence at the National Orange Show that we could climb and get in for free. No one had any money — Depression!
We girls loved the Orange Show when the military had those cute guys in uniform on the tanks and such. Oh, my, how our female hearts would flutter. It never amounted to anything but a giggle, but they were very handsome. They loved it, too — young men away from their home states. I may be 89 but an old gal still has a young heart that throbs at a memory!
I also remember the lake (Urbita Springs) down where we now have Inland Center Mall. Can you believe that lake had canoe rides at one time? I also listened to Tennessee Ernie Ford sing there while standing on the back of a hay truck!
I danced one time at the Municipal Auditorium in Pioneer Park. Seems like Tommy Dorsey was playing there.
During a sad time in my life, my dad lost his job and we went on relief — BUT at the Auditorium they had FREE tap dancing classes. I was to be another "movie star" (my mom's words).
I mustn't forget to mention the Big Bear Creamery next to the high school, Rosalie's Burgers, the skating rink, the Pioneer Days parades, Perris Hill Park, the many churches we all attended, the Christmas parades, the California Hotel which had a HUGE plate glass window where a person could watch what was going on inside. Celebrities also used that hotel quite a bit. We were very impressed because sometimes they would look over and wave to us!
I worked for a time as a secretary at the newly established office of City Parks and Recreation. Also, I worked at Central City Mall (now Carousel Mall) after it opened in the 1970s. I worked in the promotion office. We were the office that planned events FOR FREE at the mall.
All was good until new management came in and hobnobbed with "City Big Shots." That's about the time that my beloved town took a nose drive. City government followed "out of town" advice and started to turn San Bernardino into what it has now become.
I loved San Bernardino and now we don't even like to drive through it. My husband says I have way too many good memories to be so upset at the sight of a beautiful, lovely town turn into such an ugly eyesore.
But it's enough to bring on tears.

- clean out my closet and get it organized. Greg has a tee shirt collection like no one else I know. I actually separated them into 3 different piles on the shelf. He has the school related tees (Morehead, Tennessee, and the school he teaches at. Then there is the alcohol related, and finally the nascar tees.) He has them all mixed up at the moment and it drives me
- Paint the decorative Urns outside
- Pressure wash, and re stain the deck
- Clean out the storage building and take all the junk to goodwill
- clean out my car
- paint the bathroom
What I actually did was hang the wreath I made
I did about 200 loads of laundry and then put together two shelves to hold Greg's CD's. I needed another shelve but I bought all they had, so now I have to go back.
disregard the layer of dust on the CD stand. I never touch anything related to his music....well until this weekend.I woke up with a migraine today and laid in bed until 3 until I finally broke down and took a prescription migraine pill. I have no idea what I would do without these. It pretty much killed my momentum. But I did manage to read an entire Sophia Kinsella book between napping and holding a cold cloth on my head. I pretty much looked like this.
Rapunzel had a migraine too.....and she got a hair cut.
There are 2 blog challenges going on this month and I am thinking about taking part (although one has already started) I may do it hit or miss. While May was fun I felt stressed about posting every single day and sometimes I just didn't feel like writing on my weekend.

Dr Marc Willebeek-LeMair, chief technical officer of networking company 3Com, is used to wrestling with weighty problems. After all, the man spent a decade at IBM's T J Watson Research Centre working on so-called intelligent infrastructure technologies and has done research on everything from distributed computing and high-speed networking technologies to network processors and management systems. So when Willebeek-LeMair talks about the problems facing the enterprise networking industry, people tend to listen.
As 3Com's CTO sees it, enterprise networking is at an inflection point as an earlier generation of networking gear focused on "moving data from point A to point B" fades into the background.
Of course, moving data from A to B is what made 3Com and its co-founder, Robert Metcalfe, famous. But by the time Willebeek-LeMair joined the company, 3Com had ceded much of its market to companies such as Cisco and Juniper, which dominate high-end switches and routers.
Willebeek-LeMair is old enough to remember when innovations in what he terms the "connectivity plane" were all the rage, but he had the vision to see beyond the horizon to the potential of what he calls the "control plane" — a layer of intelligent functions such as security, access control, and content management — that sits atop the connectivity plane and is applied to data as it moves across a network.
Since coming to 3Com with its acquisition of TippingPoint in 2005 and taking the CTO job shortly after, Willebeek-LeMair has been steadily pushing his company to address the reality of "biplanar networks" and, especially, to be a player on the "control plane", where the action is.
"Moving data from point A to point B is nice, but intelligent functions that work on data as it flows is where the excitement is," he says. "Organisations are looking at ways to improve and enhance the value of their networks for business needs by overlaying new types of networking gear."
TippingPoint's IPS hardware was 3Com's first play in the control plane. But IPS is just one application. NAC (network admission control), application performance and acceleration, and user authentication, are all areas where 3Com and other networking vendors will compete, he says.
Control-plane technology, for deep packet classification and policy enforcement for security and application performance, will soon be as common as the routers and switches that make up the connectivity plane, he says. To that end, 3Com under Willebeek-LeMair and CEO R Scott Murray has been working to drive down the price of standard networking gear through H3C, its joint venture with Chinese networking infrastructure vendor Huawei.
3Com has also introduced Intelligent Network Control (INC), an open, multi-vendor architecture that allows third parties to use an API to allow customers to add control-plane functions.
Willebeek-LeMair says that he wants to take a page out of 3Com's history, spurring growth of control-plane applications by remaining agnostic about the underlying technology, as it did with its Ethernet technology.
Regardless of the success or failure of these initiatives, Willebeek-LeMair's biggest accomplishment may be turning 3Com's eyes back on the future, after years spent looking over its shoulder at forays by Cisco and others.
"I feel good about our vision. I think we've identified where we want to go. There's always the opportunity to ask, 'Are we focused well enough?' But we've made big steps."

Well I've exposited why COP 21 is a fraud, and let John Michael Greer have his say, mainly because it's targets for emissions curbs are non-binding, because there is no commitment to not continue using fossil fuels, and because countries are going ahead with fossil fuel reserve exploitation and other fossil fuel energy projects anyway. Another reason comes from an old study: that the present (2005 = +/-376 ppmV) overburden of Carbon Dioxide in the Atmosphere will break the 2.0 degrees C (3.6 F) limit anyway.
|Atmospheric CO2 is rising around 1.9 ppm per year, up from a pre-industrial level of 280 ppm by volume.

On avoiding dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system: Formidable challenges ahead.
V. Ramanathan and Y. Feng
Scripps Institution of Oceanography, University of California at San Diego
Edited by William C. Clark
Harvard University, Cambridge, MA, and approved July 24, 2008
The observed increase in the concentration of greenhouse gases (GHGs) since the preindustrial era has most likely committed the world to a warming of 2.4°C (1.4°C to 4.3°C) above the preindustrial surface temperatures. The committed warming is inferred from the most recent Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) estimates of the greenhouse forcing and climate sensitivity. The estimated warming of 2.4°C is the equilibrium warming above preindustrial temperatures that the world will observe even if GHG concentrations are held fixed at their 2005 concentration levels but without any other anthropogenic forcing such as the cooling effect of aerosols. The range of 1.4°C to 4.3°C in the committed warming overlaps and surpasses the currently perceived threshold range of 1°C to 3°C for dangerous anthropogenic interference with many of the climate-tipping elements such as the summer arctic sea ice, Himalayan–Tibetan glaciers, and the Greenland Ice Sheet. IPCC models suggest that ≈25% (0.6°C) of the committed warming has been realized as of now. About 90% or more of the rest of the committed warming of 1.6°C will unfold during the 21st century, determined by the rate of the unmasking of the aerosol cooling effect by air pollution abatement laws and by the rate of release of the GHGs-forcing stored in the oceans. The accompanying sea-level rise can continue for more than several centuries. Lastly, even the most aggressive CO2 mitigation steps as envisioned now can only limit further additions to the committed warming, but not reduce the already committed GHGs warming of 2.4°C.
I repeat the finding of the above study, that with the 2005 Atmospheric content of about 376 ppmV CO2, there is already 2.4 C (4.3 F) degrees of global warming baked in the cake. We've gone through about half that now.
And even what global warming we've passed through so far appears to be just too much to avoid global weirding and dangerous climate change, what with the Christmas weekend storms (with tornadoes) that left so much rain on the Mid-South and Great Plains that the Mississippi will be experiencing historic levels of flooding over the next few weeks. The place to watch may not St. Louis, or New Orleans, but the Old River Control Structure that keeps the Mississippi from escaping down the Atchafalaya River. That structure almost failed in the famous 1973 floods. Dr. Jeff Masters of Weather Underground reports that the NWS River Forecast Center predicts that "the Mississippi River would crest at Red River Landing, where the Old River Control Structure is located, on January 19. The predicted crest of 62.5' is just 0.9' below the all-time record crest of 63.39' set on May 18, 2011."

Record Hot Arctic: NOAA's 2015 Report Card Shows Signs of Failing Climates
by Robertscribbler, 21 December 2015
In NOAA's most recent annual Arctic Report Card, the records just keep falling as the litany of global warming related events appearing throughout the far north continued to crop up with ever-more dizzying frequency...
NOAA's Arctic report is a stark expose of the state of the Arctic climate. What we view now is a system undergoing a rapid and dynamic transition from its previously stable state to something that is entirely new and alien to human civilization.
The 12 month period of October 2014 to September 2015 was the hottest one year time-frame since record keeping began for the Arctic back in 1900. As a result of these record warm temperatures, Arctic sea ice during the Winter hit its lowest maximum extent ever seen. Summer sea ice extent was likewise greatly reduced hitting its 4th lowest extent ever recorded. Old, thick sea ice which represented 20 percent of the ice pack in 1985, has precipitously declined to a mere 3 percent of the ice pack today. Snow cover also took a hit, declining to its second lowest extent on record during 2015 and striking a range of 50 percent below the typical average for the month.
Overall warming of the Arctic is at a much more rapid pace than the rest of the world. This accelerated pace of warming is due, in large part, to loss of snow and sea ice reflectivity during the Spring and Summer months. As a result, more heat is absorbed into dark land and ocean surfaces — a heat that is retained throughout the Arctic over longer and longer periods. And, though NOAA doesn't report it in the above video, overall higher concentrations of greenhouse gasses like methane and CO2 in or near the Arctic region also contribute to a higher rate of warming (see NOAA's ESRL figures). In a world that is now rapidly proceeding beyond the 400 ppm CO2 and 485 ppm CO2e threshold, this is exactly the kind of Northern Hemisphere polar amplification we would expect to see.
And this record hot Arctic, acting in concert with El Nino and The Blob (record warm water and high pressure air out in the Pacific), is spawning a wicked frontal system possessing multiple lows, hurricane-force winds and an area the size of small continents (examples.: Europe, Australia). This system is just one of the first h'ors d'oeuvres in the just-commencing multiple course meal of dangerous climate change that Jim Hansen called The Storms of My Grandchildren. I do not expect these storms to cease until the overheating of the planet finally reaches an equilibrium a thousand years from now.
by Robertscribbler, 27 December 2015
We've probably never seen weather like what's being predicted for a vast region stretching from the North Atlantic to the North Pole and on into the broader Arctic this coming week. But it's all in the forecast — an Icelandic low that's stronger than most hurricanes featuring a wind field stretching over hundreds and hundreds of miles. One that taps warm tropical air and hurls it all the way to the North Pole and beyond during Winter time. And it all just reeks of a human-forced warming of the Earth's climate…Sunday afternoon, a powerful, hurricane force low pressure system was in the process of rounding the southern tip of Greenland. This burly 960 mb beast roared out of an increasingly unstable Baffin Bay on Christmas. As it rounded Greenland and entered the North Atlantic, it pulled behind it a thousand-mile-wide gale force wind field even as it lashed the tip of Greenland with Hurricane force gusts. To its east, the storm now links with three other lows. Lows that are, even now, drawing south-to-north winds up from a region just west of Gibraltar, on past the UK, up beyond Iceland, over Svalbard, and into the Arctic Ocean itself.GFS forecasts predict a storm bombing out between 920 and 930 mb over Iceland by Wednesday. It's a storm that could rival some of the strongest such systems ever recorded for the North Atlantic. But this storm's influence is unique in its potential to shove an unprecedented amount of warm air into the Arctic. A warm storm for the Arctic Winter time.Over the next few days these three lows are predicted to combine into a storm the likes of which the far North Atlantic rarely ever sees. This storm is expected to center over Iceland. But it will have far-reaching impacts ranging from the UK and on north to the pole itself. As the lows combine, GFS predicts them to bomb out into an unprecedentedly deep low featuring 920 to 930 mb (and possibly lower) minimum central pressures by this coming Wednesday. These pressures are comparable to the very extreme storm systems that raged through the North Atlantic during the Winter of 2013. Systems that featured minimum pressures in the range of 928 to 930 mb.It's worth noting that the lowest pressure ever recorded for the North Atlantic occurred in the much further southward forming Hurricane Wilma at 882 mb.By early Wednesday, temperatures at the North Pole are expected to exceed 1 degree Celsius readings. Such temperatures are in the range of more than 40 degrees Celsius (72 degrees Fahrenheit) above average.
And it's not just storms we have to worry about. It's also wicked bad droughts, like the one California recently experienced for the past four years -- and is still experiencing to some degree and in some areas.
A study was made for California's millions of trees and it looks like the drought stress on them has been extremely bad: bad enough to cause about half of them to be so water stressed that they'll die if the drought comes back.
California's Future Is in the Hands of Its Dying Trees

California's Future Is in the Hands of Its Dying Trees
Newsweek – By Zoë Schlanger 29 December 2015
The past four years of punishing drought have badly hurt California's forests. Rain was scarce, the days were too hot, and this year's wildfire season was the worst anyone has seen in years, burning up nearly 10 million acres across the West. For the first time, a team of researchers has measured the severity of the blow the drought dealt the trees, uncovering potential future destruction in the process. The resulting paper, published Monday in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, is a rich visual testament to just how much California needs its trees and how close the state is to losing 58 million of them.
A team at the Carnegie Institution for Science, led by ecologist Greg Asner, used a laser-guided imaging tool, more properly referred to as high-fidelity imaging spectroscopy (HiFIS), mounted on a plane to sweep over California, taking snapshots that revealed how much water content the forest canopy had lost over time. In these images, the trees that appear red and orange are severely depleted of water. Light trees, in shades of tan, are trees under "drought stress" resulting from this past year's dry season. The trees colored in blue are "doing OK," Asner says.
In total, the team found that up to 58 million large trees, shown in red, have been heavily impacted by the drought. If the drought recurs, or if the El Niño keeps the heat turned up in the region, Asner says these trees will likely die. New tree growth would also be suppressed, leaving room for shrublands or grasslands to take over, destroying the current ecosystem of plants and animals entirely. That poses a host of new questions for wildlife management and conservation. "For example," Asner says, "if we're going to lose habitat, what does that mean for bear populations?"
Of course, it's not just California. As Colorado Bob said to me today, Every tree everywhere is under attack. All over the world.
And this, at only half of the 2.4 degree Celsius temperature rise (+4.3 F) that we've already baked into the cake of Anthropogenic Global Warming. And Peak Oil won't reduce it, not one iota!

Five Nights at Freddy's 12+
Scott Cawthon
- #6 in Action
- $2.99
This is the official mobile port of Five Nights at Freddys!
NOTE: This game requires at least 512 megs of ram to run properly; low-memory devices such as the iPod gen 3 and 4 will crash during gameplay. If you have a newer device this shouldn't be a problem!
Welcome to your new summer job at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, where kids and parents alike come for entertainment and food as far as the eye can see! The main attraction is Freddy Fazbear, of course; and his two friends. They are animatronic robots, programmed to please the crowds! The robots' behavior has become somewhat unpredictable at night however, and it was much cheaper to hire you as a security guard than to find a repairman.
From your small office you must watch the security cameras carefully. You have a very limited amount of electricity that you're allowed to use per night (corporate budget cuts, you know). That means when you run out of power for the night- no more security doors and no more lights! If something isn't right- namely if Freddybear or his friends aren't in their proper places, you must find them on the monitors and protect yourself if needed!
Can you survive five nights at Freddy's?
"For all the simplicity of the game's controls and premise, Five Nights at Freddy's is frightening. It's a fantastic example of how cleverness in design and subtlety can be used to make an experience terrifying. Simple still images and proper character design steal the show in this game, and show that Scott Cawthon knows quite a lot about the secret fears people feel when looking at creepy dolls and toys. It's elegant in how it sows fear, and is a must-own for anyone who likes scary games." -Joel Couture IndieGameMag.com

Best scary game ever
This game is the game that gives you the creepy vibe all though it's not really creepy if your playing it at day time. People say that there are bugs of the door and the light not working and that's part of the game idiots they jammed the door. When I got my 15$ AppStore/iTunes gift card this was the first thing I got. I've knew fnaf for years and I finally get to play it. There's nothing wrong with this game but I'm stuck on night 6!!! It's either someone Jammed the door and I can't flip the camera and either golden Freddy will pop up then I have to be forced to flip the camera so if he pops up your pretty much dead unless your really low on power then it will cut out or I have to keep the left door closed because foxy and then I run out of power ._. And sometimes Freddy even jumpscares me. It's so annoying I just wanna get it done with so I can move on to the second game. And there's a bug you need to fix and it's the screen when I flip my screen it doesn't work but when I'm off fnaf my screen works idk if this is a coincidence or it's a game bug if it is plz fix it.
-A person who really likes fnaf and even sneaked his phone to class to play this and got away with it.
Jk they let me play with it because I tricked them by saying it's a game where you have to flash lights close doors and there's a Fox bear bunny and bird I know their names but I didn't tell them and they believed me. That was at recess I'm 4th grade
Everything Is great except for a Major Glitch
The game was running great and being the amazing game it is (now I know this doesn't matter very much but the only thing going wrong until night 3 was the poster in my office. Isn't it supposed to make a noise when you click it? It didn't work 75% of the time for me) until I reached night 3. Whenever Chica was outside my right door in the hallway, it wouldn't let me close it. This made me lose night 3 many times until it started working again. I hoped it was the end of it, but it did it again when I reached night 4. When I reached night 5, it was no longer on and off (inconsistent) but CONSTANT. It is keeping me from winning the game and it very annoying! It is especially annoying since I am a YouTuber and was trying to record my play through while this was happening. It is embarrassing to experience a glitch like that in front of my viewers, especially since it was keeping me from winning. Also, I'm not sure if this is supposed to happen but my cameras often black out for about 4-8 seconds every now and then which has also cost me a win many times. I hate to say this but if this keeps happening I won't be playing your games anymore. Please fix this!
Excellent game, but MAJOR bug
I absolutely love this game. I love how the series has gone up and above with not only its method of story telling, but how it's really in touch with the fan base and has delivered a great game after each one in the series. You could tell that I got really excited when I saw almost all of the games on the App Store lol.
However I wouldn't necessarily recommend the Apps to play the games rather than the computer. These games are meant for FNAF fans who are not at a computer at the given moment, and while that's a good concept the mechanics make it hard to play as well as the game consisting of a lot of bugs. In Night 4 when defending against Foxy (where you check the cameras and when you see him running all the way to the door), the battery goes down 10%-15% in less than a second, making the 4th night nearly impossible. Idk if this is just me but I reinstalled the app and it always happens on night 4 and nowhere else, so if Scott could fix his game then that would be greatly appreciated.
But yes, great game.
