I think Cryptocurrencies are the future. Screw the banks.
What Debt In Chicken Farming Says About American Agriculture
I feel there is a Day of Reckoning in farming in the USA. Over burdened with regulations and rising interest rates causing land values to plummet. This reeks of a disaster that will once again decimate our farming community.
I look for mass starvation in the USA if this continues.
So all those bright and shiny new chicken coups and farms brought on by new idiotic regulations created by people who know shit about farming and paid with borrowed money will CRUSH the American poultry farmer.
I look for mass starvation in the USA if this continues.
Poultry farmers are over-leveraged on average compared to other farmers. In 2007, poultry farmers had the highest DRCU of any sector in agriculture, at nearly 70%. This means that poultry farmers are have already leveraged nearly 70% of their capacity to pay back debt, just to keep the business running. This calculation does not include their livelihood: feeding their family, paying for their own home, etc. Close followers in high DRCU were hog and dairy farmers, industries that are increasingly adopting contract models similar to poultry. In the same year, according to research by USDA's Economic Research Service, the poultry sector also had a larger than proportional amount of insolvent farms, compared to other sectors.
So all those bright and shiny new chicken coups and farms brought on by new idiotic regulations created by people who know shit about farming and paid with borrowed money will CRUSH the American poultry farmer.
Farmers Push Back Against Animal Welfare Laws
So, the 98% of America that doesn't farm with the vast majority probably never ever even seen a farm or maybe even planted a seed, are going to tell the highly skilled farmers how to raise live stock? Really?
This spells the end of agriculture in America. Socialism at its finest!!
This spells the end of agriculture in America. Socialism at its finest!!
North Dakota and Missouri adopted amendments in the last few years that enshrined into their constitutions the right of farmers and ranchers to use current practices and technology. Legislatures in many states, including Indiana, Mississippi, Nebraska and West Virginia, considered proposed amendments this year. And Oklahoma voters this month rejected a similar amendment sent to them by the Legislature.
Farmers acknowledge that some people who do not spend much time on farms may object to some of their practices. But they say that they do not abuse animals and that their practices are the most efficient and safest way to keep up with demand for food. And, they say, complying with restrictions on raising poultry and livestock like those approved in Massachusetts are costly for them and for consumers.
They point to an 18 percent increase in the price of eggs — about 49 cents a dozen — in California last year that was attributed to a law that created strict space requirements for hens. The law applies not just to producers in the state but to producers in other states that sell eggs there.
"Our nation's ability to protect its food supply can be threatened by unnecessary regulations driven by activist agendas, often by people who've never set foot on farmland or have no idea what it takes to produce a crop," said Paul Schlegel, director of environment and energy policy for the American Farm Bureau Federation.
Multi-Million Dollar Producing Vinyl Company Leaves SoCal for Prescott
What amazing hemmoraging!
Halle said choosing Prescott was not completely straightforward, but leaving California became a no-brainer for this Orange County native/resident and his wife/CFO, Helen, a former bank vice president. "We had to get out of California," Halle said. "They taxed us to death. We tried to stay creative but all costs saved went back out the door as laws changed. This meant we couldn't innovate enough to keep competing with China. Helen said we really have to love California to stay here because if we want to keep innovating, we've got to leave." Halle takes his criticism of California's business environment a step further, believing that distribution is favored over manufacturing because it produces more tax revenue. "There's more smog because of this," he added. "Now I have a fantastic and clear view out my window."
Boeing to shift 2,400 jobs away from Huntington Beach facility by 2020
Good God! Is there no hope for CA?
But he also noted that the industry has been shrinking in Southern California for decades. "This is another brick in that path," he added. In the first nine months of this year, profit in the company's defense and space unit was down 5 percent from a year earlier.
Moreover, as Congress has curbed defense spending in recent years, Boeing has lost several big military contracts. The company also faces competition from space startups such as Hawthorne-based SpaceX.
Statewide, Boeing's workforce has shrunk by nearly 700 jobs since January, dropping to 14,414. Even so, "California remains key to Boeing's future," said spokeswoman Tiffany Pitts.
"It's home to the world's largest satellite factory, commercial airplane engineering activities, and military and commercial airplane product support."
Major defense contractor Lockheed Martin plans to leave San Diego
When is CA going to wake up?
A major defense contractor is moving out of state and taking 100 good paying jobs with it.
This time, it's Lockheed Martin, saying goodbye to California and its high taxes.
The defense contractor is moving command and control jobs to its headquarters in Littleton, Colo., a state that cuts California's corporate income tax in half.
"We continually evaluate our operations to identify opportunities to increase affordability," the company said in a statement. "...Reduction of duplicate laboratories and facilities operating costs improves the affordability and efficiency of our business, which better serves our customers."
Lockheed Martin opened the office in 2009 with 500 workers.
Transamerica to close L.A. and Folsom offices, cutting hundreds of jobs
No longer a physical presence in CA.
Financial services and insurance company Transamerica said Thursday that it will close its office in Los Angeles, cutting about 315 jobs.
The Baltimore company will also close its office in Folsom, where 30 employees will be affected. Transamerica will no longer have operations in California, though the company still owns the Transamerica Pyramid in San Francisco and will continue to serve customers in California.
Transamerica said it will also close its office in West Chester, Ohio. All the office closures will occur next year.
Nationwide, Transamerica will eliminate about 800 positions, including job cuts in other locations.
Another 1,000 Jobs LEAVING California—For Low Tax/No Tax States
There really is only so much a company can bear.
Verizon is offering 1,000 employees four choices, move to Texas, South Carolina of Florida—or be unemployed. Texas and Florida have in income taxes—and low cost housing—compared to California. My hope I that these folks get out of California while they can—failed schools, high crimes rates, worst roads in the nation, a governor that gives water to fish not people. We are on the cusp according to Guv Brown of a recession—time to get out of Dodge, or Sacramento.
"Verizon Wireless is closing its Rancho Cordova operation, cutting 1,000 jobs.
"This was a very difficult but necessary business decision. We value our customer service and telesales employees. They are highly trained, highly skilled and experienced and they will be encouraged to stay with the company," said spokeswoman Heidi Flato, via email.
Uber's self-driving cars quit California and leave for Arizona on the back of a self-driving truck
Ho boy. Your Silicon Valley guys are leaving?
In a final blow to Uber's self-driving car ambitions in the state, the California DMV revoked the registration of Uber's 16 autonomous vehicles on Wednesday, forcing the company to shut down its self-driving pilot program in San Francisco.
"It was determined that the registrations were improperly issued for these vehicles because they were not properly marked as test vehicles," the DMV wrote in a letter to Uber on Wednesday.
APEX Moving From California to… Arizona!
Another one sees the light!
"Getting out from under the restrictive and frankly punitive regulatory environment of California allows us to expand our R&D efforts as we continue to bring new products to market," explained Folk. "The move is not only good for Apex but also our employees."
California is consistently ranked as one of the worst states in which to run a business. By relocating to Arizona, Apex Tactical Specialties is not only able to reduce many operating costs for the business, but also expand opportunities for employees. In Peoria, Arizona the consumer prices are 18.03% lower than in San Luis Obispo, California. Rent prices are 40.20% lower and local purchasing power is 76.24% higher."
Why a lot of people are moving out of California
Yes, life is BETTER somewhere else.
Karen Francis and her husband left the San Francisco Bay area in January after he was offered a job in Vancouver, Washington. While their move was career motivated, it's been good for their budget.
They now own a 2,600-square-foot home that is almost double the size of the place they were renting in California.
And it's not just their housing costs that have shrunk. The couple, which have an infant daughter, are also paying less in gas, utilities and services like garbage collection. And commute times are significantly better.
"You have to drive 20 minutes to get anywhere in Silicon Valley," the 28-year-old said. "Here, the drive to the store, church, gym where I workout, everything is 10 minutes or less."
MEXICO II Is California splitting away? Group believes California should form its own nation
Boy, did they pick the wrong time to decide to split away. Poverty reaching critical flash point. Public debt at an all time high. Awash in illegal immigrants (who CA will most likely gleefully announce as all legal...until the vicious cycle begins again). A state stripped of manufacturing. You name it.
This month, the group announced the opening of a "cultural center" in Moscow — "the first of many planned California culture centers which will serve to build a bridge between the nation of California and the nations of the world," read a statement on Yes California's website.The good news is the state would immediately default on all of its pension obligations, leaving the "citizens" of CA walking around in a cloudy LA haze wondering what the heck happened.
If its ballot measure succeeds, Yes California would pursue a 2019 vote to declare the state's independence. At least half of the state's voters would have to cast ballots and 55 percent would have to choose independence for California to become its own nation, according to document Yes California filed with the Attorney General's office.

California man fights DUI charge for driving under influence of caffeine
And THIS is the state that will launch "their own damn satellite". What complete nonsense. They are too busy trying to find EVERYONE guilty of something.
Yes.....this is CA. They will. They really will.
"It's really stupid," said Jeffrey Zehnder, a forensic toxicologist who frequently testifies in court cases. Over 41 years, Zehnder said, he had never seen a prosecution for driving under the influence of caffeine."If that's the case, then they better come and arrest me," he joked.
"If that's the case, then they better come and arrest me," he joked.
Zehnder was informed about the case by Barrett, but has not been contracted to testify on either side.
California vehicle code defines a "drug" as any substance besides alcohol that could affect a person in a manner that would "impair, to an appreciable degree" his ability to drive normally.
Making that case with caffeine would be difficult, Zehnder said, because the prosecutor would have to show that impaired driving was specifically caused by the caffeine and not any other circumstances.
"There are no studies that demonstrate that driving is impaired by caffeine, and they don't do the studies, because no one cares about caffeine," he said.
As for Schwab, he just wants this ordeal to be over. In a statement provided to the Guardian by his attorney, he said his reputation had been damaged.
"No one believed me that I only had caffeine in my system until I showed them the lab results," he said. "I want the charges to be dismissed and my name to be cleared."
Yes.....this is CA. They will. They really will.
REMINDER: Kwanzaa Was Concocted By A Deranged Felon Who Brutally Tortured Two Naked Women
I had almost forgotten that I try to remind people about this. The whole idea of Kwanza is ridiculously stupid. People are bamboozled into believing that it's a quaint custom straight out of Africa. Not so. It's an idea right our of the minds of a Leftist criminal.
The creator of Kwanzaa is Maulana Ndabezitha Karenga, a 75-year-old professor or Africana studies at California State University, Long Beach. His real name is Ronald Everett. He was born in rural Maryland, the fourteenth child of a sharecropping Baptist minister.And he's rewarded by given a professorship in....CA. Why does that not surprise me?
Karenga was convicted in 1971 for brutally torturing two naked women. The women were members of Karenga's ultra-radical, paramilitary, black nationalist cult called the US Organization, according to a May 1971 Los Angeles Times story dug up by FrontPage Magazine.
"Deborah Jones, who once was given the Swahili title of an African queen, said she and Gail Davis were whipped with an electrical cord and beaten with a karate baton after being ordered to remove their clothes," the LA Times article reports.
Jones "testified that a hot soldering iron was placed in Miss Davis' mouth and placed against Miss Davis' face and that one of her own big toes was tightened in a vise. Karenga, head of US, also put detergent and running hoses in their mouths, she said."
Karenga tortured Jones and Davis with the help of three fellow US Organization members because Karenga believed that the torture victims were using magic crystals to poison him on behalf of his enemies.

OPEC Threatened by Tiny Oklahoma Town With Soaring Supplies
We are swimming oil. So much oil!
For OPEC, there are few enemies more fearsome than the tiny Oklahoma town of Cushing.
With oil inventories at Cushing creeping near an all-time high, U.S. benchmark futures prices are struggling to advance despite the promised production cuts agreed to by OPEC, Russia and other producers. And the storage tanks are likely to stay full as refiners park crude in Oklahoma to lower their tax bills.
Cushing, which prides itself as the "pipeline crossroads of the world," is the delivery point for the West Texas Intermediate crude contract. With tanks that can hold 77 million barrels of crude, enough to supply France for two months, it's the biggest storage hub in the U.S. The last high point there came in May. Now, after a brief hiatus, the tanks are filling up once again. For the OPEC-led efforts to boost prices, that's a major problem.
Climate change expert sentenced to 32 months for fraud, says lying was a 'rush'
So, do you think we can believe one work he has to say about global warming?
When he first began looking into Beale's deceptions last February, said EPA Assistant Inspector General Patrick Sullivan, who spearheaded the Beale probe, "I thought, 'Oh my God, How could this possibly have happened in this agency? … I've worked for the government for 35 years. I've never seen a situation like this."

California governor: 'If Trump turns off the satellites, California will launch its own damn satellite'
Oh Yeah? You and what industry? They all left!! You'll have to outsource most of the manufacturing to the "USA."
California Gov. Jerry Brown gave a fiery speech on climate-change policy on Wednesday, during which he said, "If Trump turns off the satellites, California will launch its own damn satellite," according to The Los Angeles Times.

OPEC Threatened by Tiny Oklahoma Town With Soaring Supplies
And supplies keep growing and growing...
Stockpiles rose by 1.22 million barrels last week, following a 3.78 million jump the previous week that was the biggest since 2008. The inflows have pushed up stocks to 66.5 million barrels, within a whisker of the all-time record of 68.3 million set in May. With the promise of production cuts sending forward prices up, that's encouraging traders and refiners to hold onto inventories, the last thing the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries wants to see.
"The near-term prognosis for Cushing balances is not particularly rosy," said Amrita Sen, chief oil analyst at consultants Energy Aspects Ltd.
What's happening to Canadian churches?
"Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first..."
The Great Canadian Apostasy in full swing.
A graph showing the emptying of the Canadian Soul:
The Great Canadian Apostasy in full swing.
In 2003, in the province of Quebec, some 2,751 places of worship were identified by Quebec's Religious Heritage Council. Since then 400 have closed. Quoted by Post Media, Council project manager Denis Boucher says the rhythm of closures is increasing, "A church closes every week. It is a huge phenomenon".I supposed that "influx of newcomers" is referring to Muslims.
While Christian churches are being closed in Canada due mainly to diminishing congregations, the influs of newcomers means many other religious communities are growing in Canada.
While many churches have been torn down to make way for other uses, such as condos, in some cases, when a Christian church is put up for sale, it will be saved and converted to another religion.
As one Windsor resident said regarding St George's, "Once a building is gone, you can't get it back"

California Regression - Eco Craziness

Great youtube video on modern day Communism/Socialism
Falling incomes turn California into modern-day Dust Bowl: Susan Shelley
All those who have the means are the first to leave. What are left are the wealthy who can afford to endure anything and the poor who have no choice but to endure everything.
Nearly 60 percent of California voters with children living at home agree with the statement, "my children will have a better future if they leave California." More than 75 percent now think "earning enough income to enjoy a middle-class lifestyle is becoming almost impossible in my part of California." In Los Angeles County, it's 87 percent.
That's from a new survey by the California Chamber of Commerce. And if you think those numbers are discouraging, the numbers in a just-released report from the Los Angeles County Economic Development Corporation are even worse.

Time Warner CEO Jeffrey Bewkes Says Democrats Were Bigger First Amendment Threat Than Trump
This is the meme: blast conservatives and Republicans as being censors trying to stifle free speech when the reality the Left are the real culprits. The whole "fake news" meme points straight to the heart of the Left and how they never once budged on Hellery losing the election.
The Left is the threat to free speech. Not the Right.
The Left is the threat to free speech. Not the Right.
"The threat to the First Amendment came from the Democratic side," Bewkes said during a conversation with Business Insider CEO Henry Blodget at a conference in New York in a session that was webcast.
Bewkes made the comment after Blodget noted that Trump had criticized CNN for allegedly unfair coverage, and even threatened some sort of regulation in retaliation against CNN, owned by Time Warner.
"I don't think that's a serious thing," Bewkes told Blodget at the Ignition: Future of Digital conference. "If anybody is going to change the First Amendment — remember, the Democratic party had a campaign plank to change the First Amendment, and they were doing it in the guise of campaign finance reform."
The CEO, continuing his theme, even acknowledged that the news media does, indeed, lean left, as conservatives have long complained.
"That was worrying me more, because the press tends to miss that because they tend to lean that way, and therefore they were supporting what they were viewing, I think overly charitably, as something in cleaning up money in politics when in fact what it would do is restrain multiple voices," Bewkes argued. "So, I thought the threat to the First Amendment came from the Democratic side more. I think there won't be a serious effort on the Republican side."

US Already Ready to Take Advantage of OPEC Cut
Surely. SURELY the Saudis knew this would happen, right? RIGHT???
"We should also be cautious to read too much into the timing of these latest additions to the national rig count, as companies have not yet had time to respond to the sharp uptick in prices we saw on Wednesday as a result of OPEC's (and Russia's) decision to cut production. But while we can't say that this is a direct effect of those cuts, we can reasonably expect the American shale industry to quickly respond to $50+ per barrel crude. Firms have been actively developing new processes and technologies that will allow them to become profitable at these levels in more plays than ever before, and thanks to the relatively small scale of shale well drilling, they'll be able to adjust to a more bullish market with much more agility than more conventional oil producers."

Stumbling onto the side of insanity: U.S. Workplace English Rules Discriminatory, Foreign Language Demands Aren't
It is hard to fathom the utter gross stupidity of a person who says this. What kind of twisted, drug stupored mess up shit is this? What a perversion!
Two years ago, the administration laid the foundation for the new measures by suing a private American business for discriminating against Hispanic and Asian employees because they didn't speak English on the job. The case involved a Green Bay Wisconsin metal and plastic manufacturer that fired a group of Hmong and Hispanic workers over their English skills. Forcing employees to speak English in the U.S. violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the EEOC claimed in its lawsuit. That's because the Civil Rights Act protects employees from discrimination based on national origin, which includes the linguistic characteristics of a national origin group. Therefore, the EEOC argued, foreigners have the right to speak their native language even during work hours at an American company that requires English.I will now...vomit.
Now the agency has created official federal rules to support this absurd theory as well as other innovative discrimination categories, including "multiple protected bases." This is a seldom recognized but potent Molotov cocktail of prejudice based on race, color and religion. As an example, the new rules mention discrimination against Middle Easterners perceived to "follow particular religious practices." Among the amusing hypotheticals embedded in the rules is an Egyptian named Thomas who alleges he was harassed by his coworkers about his Arab ethnicity and Islam. "Thomas' charge should assert national origin, race and religious discrimination," the EEOC writes, referring to its new "multiple protected bases" category. The agency reassures that it will protect Middle Easterners, stating that "Title VII prohibits employment discrimination based on the perception that someone is from the Middle East or is of Arab ethnicity, regardless of how she identifies herself or whether she is, in fact, from one or more Middle Eastern countries or ethnically Arab."

Forty-eight countries have signed up to OECD guidance on due diligence for responsible business conduct.
The guidance is the first government-backed standard for corporate due diligence on responsible business conduct to address a a range of business operations and the supply chain, including human rights, labour, the environment and corruption.
The document was formally adopted this week at the OECD's annual meeting in Paris.
Angel Gurría, OECD secretary general, said: "The business community has a responsibility to conduct business in a way that takes into account both the bottom line and the impact of their activities on society.
"This guidance is a major milestone in ensuring that governments and business can work together to drive more inclusive and sustainable growth across the world through more responsible business conduct and due diligence across supply chains."
Measures companies should take include updating and publishing policies on labour, human rights, and corruption; communicating these to suppliers; and including conditions on responsible business in contracts.

Behavioral economics combines the study of psychology with the analysis of the decision-making behind an economic outcome, such as the factors that play a role in a consumer's decision to buy one product over another. Just over a year ago, Richard Thaler won the Nobel prize for his work in the field of Behavioral Economics. He posited that while traditional economists believe humans behave rationally, humans actually exhibit a number of logical fallacies in their behavior and decision making. It doesn't take a genius to see that people are irrational, but Richard Thaler was a genius for identifying and defining many fallacies, allowing us to find ways to combat them by "nudging" people in the right direction.
Thaler's "nudge theory" has contributed to improvements in public policies around the globe. One of the most well-known examples is that of organ donation. In the US, which has an "opt-in" organ donation system, there's a vast shortage of organ donors. Spain, in contrast, has an "opt-out" system and is the world leader in organ donation. The "opt-out" system works because of status quo bias; people tend not to change default options.
Sometimes our default behaviors and thinking habits can get in the way of achieving the best possible outcomes. Here are four fallacies that could be affecting your decisions when it comes to ERP selection.
The Ikea Effect
Are you reticent to move off of current solutions because your team made them? You might be experiencing the Ikea Effect. Investing labor into something leads to inflated valuation. Experiments show that value assigned to self-made goods is on par to value assigned to expert creations. Some believe it's attributed to the positive feelings from completing a project.
Sunk Cost Fallacy
You've spent 10 minutes in line at the grocery store, when another register opens. You stay in your current line because you've already put in the time, but going to the new register would have been faster. The essence of this fallacy is that people will continue doing something they have invested in, even when there are better solutions, because they've already invested so much. If this sounds familiar to you, you might be guilty of the Sunk Cost Fallacy.
Status Quo Bias
People prefer for things to stay the same by doing nothing, even when transition costs are small and the importance of the decision is great. The problem with the status-quo is that while a person or company can choose to stay the same, the world changes more and more rapidly, especially in our age of rampant innovation. It's not a winning strategy. Is your status-quo really working, or are you guilty of Status Quo Bias?
Ambiguity Aversion
People tend to favor the known over the unknown. When choosing between two bets, we are more likely to choose the bet for which we know the odds (even if the odds are poor) than the one for which we don't know the odds. We've all heard the phrase "Better the devil you know than the devil you don't." That might be a wise strategy in some aspects of life, but when it comes to an ERP strategy, your solution should never be "the devil." If this sounds familiar, you may be experiencing Ambiguity Aversion.
Whether just one of these sounds familiar or all five, you'll want to make the best decision possible when selecting a cloud ERP solution. Good isn't good enough! If you recognize any of these fallacies on your team, please leave a comment below. We'd love to hear from you!

Feed shortage looming large
Parts of the Waikato are starting to recover from the drought, but the availability of feed remains a concern, says DairyNZ's Sharon Morrell.
DairyNZ developer animal care and biosecurity, Katherine DeWitt on the new tail shortening laws and better options for tail management.
I've seen first-hand on farm how many farmers pride themselves on taking good care of their animals.
That is reinforced by the dairy sector's commitment to animal care set out in the Dairy Tomorrow strategy. The goal? To be world leading in animal care.
Many farmers are working hard to achieve this goal. It attracted me from the US to be a part of the New Zealand dairy sector.
I'm impressed by how many farmers have made changes to improve animal welfare on farm, even before regulations came into force.
Take tail shortening, for example. From this October, removing the last two-three vertebrae of a cow's tail will be prohibited. But a vet will still be allowed to shorten or dock a tail under local anaesthetic if it is damaged or diseased.
We know from our interactions with farmers that most of you stopped shortening tails long ago. This is great as it is painful for the cow, and extensive research shows it does not improve udder hygiene, or reduce mastitis and somatic cell count.
Better options for tail management
Good hygiene, stockmanship and vaccination programmes have been found to be a much more effective option.
A cow's tail actually provides a range of benefits, including allowing her to swat away flies and communicate intentions and moods to herd mates and handlers.
Trimming a cow's tail hair, or switch, is allowed under the new regulations. This is a good option to help maintain udder health and keep cows' udders and milkers' faces clean, while still allowing cows to deter flies.
Tails can be trimmed using hand shears, scissors or electric trimmers.
It's up to you and your farm team to decide what works best for your farm system.
Visit www.dairynz.co.nz/tail-management. Or to find out more about the new tail shortening regulations visit www.mpi.govt.nz
Tomorrow's vision
New Zealand will be world leading in on farm animal care (one of the six commitments and goals in the sector strategy).
This means the sector will:
Develop and implement a framework that ensures every animal is valued and treated with care and respect.
By 2023 have all farmers implementing and reporting under the framework.

Our current political systems of government in western societies have become top heavy. They are burdened by their own sheer size, interconnectedness, interdependentness, and ever-increasing complexity.

It seems to be of no consequence to them how out of control, overbearing, irrelevant, and wasteful they have become as they focus purely on staying alive, at all costs, to the detriment of the people they pretend to represent.

A man did not leave a tip after a meal at a California Thai restaurant, but the message he allegedly scribbled on the receipt is going viral for all the wrong reasons.
According to the Daily Breeze, a male customer dined at Bamboo Thai Bistro on Nov. 11. A server from Thailand, who is in the U.S. on a work visa and hopes to obtain a green card, took care of the customer.
The man got his order and left. When the server retrieved the receipt from the table, the following message was written on the receipt where a tip would normally be included: "Tips for U.S. citizens only."
The restaurant owner would not disclose the man's identity, but images of the receipt have gone viral on social media, which does include the man's name.
According to the Daily Breeze, the man lives in Los Angeles, but attempts to contact him were unsuccessful.

The 2019 NFL offseason has begun for the Philadelphia Eagles
Chuck Bednarik Jerseys 2019
, which means Howie Roseman and Doug Pederson will spend the next couple of weeks evaluating the 2018 roster. Its time to start figuring out what this team needs to do to get back to the Super Bowl. Today well continue this roster outlook series by looking at the safety position.THE PLAYERSMALCOLM JENKINSRegular season stats: 1038 snaps, 97 tackles, 1 interception, 8 passes defensed, 3 forced fumbles, 1 sackPlayoff stats: 139 snaps, 13 tacklesReview: Going to repeat what I wrote when Jenkins was named to the Pro Bowl as a replacement: Jenkins didnt a single defensive snap in the regular season or the playoffs. He played all 1,180 of 1,180 ... PLUS 158 special teams snaps. The guy is simply a warrior. Hes never even missed a single Eagles game since signing with Philadelphia as a free agent five years ago. Hes arguably the teams best free agent signing of all-time. The Eagles are very lucky to have Jenkins. In addition to being an incredibly versatile defender, hes invaluable as a leader in the locker room. He certainly played a big part in the Eagles winning the Super Bowl last year and helped spark a defensive turnaround this year by suggesting that Jim Schwartz should simplify the defense.Outlook: Back in January, Jenkins said his original goal was to play 10 seasons in the NFL. Well, he just finished his 10th season, but he also said he still feels good. Jenkins is under contract through 2020.Doug Pederson may still have the market cornered on 4th down attempts Last week we looked at if teams are now suddenly going for it more on 4th down, having been emboldened by Doug Pederson and the Super Bowl. For one week at least, they were
Youth Jake Elliott Jerseys
, though only when faced with 4th and 2 or less.Another week gives us double the games to observe. We wont look at this every week, but fads in the NFL tend to die quickly, so looking at it in Week 2 makes sense. Dirk Koetter, who has gone for it on 4th and short in opponents territory only once in his head coaching career, explains the hesitation:Thats exactly the opposite of Doug Pedersons philosophy. Sundays game was case in point for both. Dirk Koetter didnt go for it, and he got the win. In his mind, the ends justified the means. But while Doug Pederson, who went for it in that game, lost, he won the Super Bowl with that aggression. All Koetter did was increase his job security for this year. Pederson already has his.So would teams stay aggressive in Week 2, following Pedersons lead? Yes and no.In the first two games in 2017 coaches who arent Doug Pederson went for it on 29% of 39 attempts. In 2018, they went for it on 41% of 24 attempts. Thats a significant increase, and a sign that Pederson has changed the league. But that alone doesnt tell the story.The total increase over the first two games entirely from Week 1, when coaches who arent Doug Pederson went for it on 5 of 10 opportunities. In their second game of 2017, coaches who arent Doug Pederson went for it on 4th and 2 or less on 5 of 16 opportunities. In their second game of 2018
Jake Elliott Jerseys Stitched
, coaches who arent Doug Pederson went for it on 4th and 2 or less on... 5 of 16 opportunities, exactly the same as the year prior. With such a small amount of opportunities, it could mean nothing. Or it could be an indication that coaches werent swayed by Week 1. When faced with a similar scenario in Week 2, teams that went for it Week 1 usually chose to send out their special teams.Up 7-0 at midfield against the Cardinals in Week 1, the Redskins went for it on 4th and 1 and converted. On Sunday, trailing against the Colts and with the ball in Colts territory, Jay Gruden twice punted on 4th and 4.In Week 1 the Falcons went for it on the goal line at 0-0, then didnt from the 3. In Week 2 Dan Quinn was faced with 4th and 4 in Panthers territory and up 24-10, he punted.The one coach who did go for it in both weeks did so bizarrely. In Week 1, down 13-6, the Giants kicked a field goal from the Jaguars 26, then down 13-9 they went for it on 4th and 2 from the Jaguars 38. In Week 2, down 7-0, Pat Shurmur punted from 4th and 1 from his 48 on his first possession, drawing the ire of everyone watching Sunday Night Football. Perhaps someone said something to him. In the 2nd quarter
Andre Dillard Philadelphia Eagles Jerseys
, down 10-0, he went for it on 4th and 1 from his own 35 and then again that drive on 4th and 1 from the Giants 46. Such inconsistency does not indicate that the Giants have a coherent plan for 4th downs.Most teams that went for it in Week 2 didnt have a 4th and short opportunity the week before. However one team did have such an opportunity in both games, and was inconsistent.In Week 1, the Rams had 4th and goal from the Raiders 2 with 2:43 left in the half and down 10-7. Sean McVay opted for the field goal. In Week 2 with 2 seconds left in the first half and 4th and goal from the 2 and up 11-0 against the Cardinals, the Rams ran the ball. Pedersons 4th down philosophy is to use it to keep his foot on the gas on a good drive, McVay seemingly is content to take conservative approach and take it off when trailing.Perhaps though that is better than having no plan. The Seahawks and Lions are the only teams to punt from opponents territory on 4th and 2 or less, both doing so in Week 2, and both were in 0-0 games. Both teams also went on to lose by one score.On one hand it is good for the league that teams went for it and lost in Week 1, and the coaches league wide didnt crawl back into their shell alongside the Dirk Koetters of the world. However with such a small sample size, there have been few opportunities for coaches to show that theyre going to methodically stick with it like Doug Pederson does. At the very least, no one has the consistency that Doug Pederson has, and if so the Eagles retain that advantage.

How to Fix a Broken Shower Head
A broken shower head leads to an unpleasant shower experience and causes a watery mess. Fix this problem yourself without the help of a professional by either repairing the connection or replacing the shower head. Professional plumbers charge high rates by the hour even though it only takes 10 minutes to fix a broken shower head, but in 10 minutes of your own time you can save yourself hours worth of money.
Turn the shower water off from the faucet. Leaving the water on will cause a mess and make the task difficult, so turn it off completely.
Remove the shower head by grabbing it tightly and twisting it off in a counterclockwise motion. If you cannot twist the shower head off with your hands, use a pipe wrench. Twist the adjustable knob, located at the top of the pipe wrench handle, to open the wrench enough to fit it over the connecting part of the shower head. Once the pipe wrench is in place, maneuver the adjustable knob until the wrench is firmly fitted around the base of the shower head and twist.
Remove all old plumber's tape from the pipe.
Dry the threads of the pipe thoroughly with a rag. This will allow the plumber's tape to cling to the pipe better.
Wrap the new plumber's tape around the threads tightly so there are no gaps in the tape.
Twist the shower head on clockwise over the plumber's tape. Tighten it as much as you can with your hands, then turn the shower on to try it out. If the shower head is still leaking, tighten it with a pipe wrench.
Things You Will Need
- Plumber's tape
- Pipe wrench
- Rag

Shortly after starting my sourdough starter, I saw this article on Bon Appetit magazine's website about new words in the food and bev world. Just what I need!
Sourdough Hotel (noun):
"Let's say you're seriously into baking bread. You need to feed the sourdough more flour every day to maintain it," Friedland says. "So, if you're going on vacation for two weeks, your culture's not going to be alive when you get back. You can bring it to a sourdough hotel, and they'll give it a daily feeding for you. They generally house over 30 jars of starter, and the top shelf is labeled penthouse." The first was in Stockholm at the Urban Deli where customers would pay three hundred Swedish krona (about $35) for each week of sourdough starter-sitting.

Professors Clara Chow, Gemma Figtree and Leonard Kritharides are Cardiologists and Clinician Scientists at Sydney Health Partners. Below they outline what their team is trying to achieve and how their work can help people with, or at risk of, cardiovascular disease. Cardiovascular disease is a one of Australia's largest health problems, affecting one in six Australians.
What are you working on?
We are working on the management of chest pain and acute coronary syndromes across Sydney Health Partners' organisations. We are exploring similarities and difference in care pathways, and exploring new service models such as Rapid Access Cardiology Clinics.
Why are you undertaking this research?
Chest pain is one of the leading causes of presentation to our emergency departments, and effective and efficient management of this condition means better patient outcomes, more efficient use of limited health resource, and cost efficiencies.
Who are you trying to help?
We are trying to help patients with, or at risk of, cardiovascular disease.
How does being part of a collaborative partnership like Sydney Health Partners help you to achieve more than you would be able to individually?
Being part of Sydney Health Partners enables us to combine our expertise in knowledge around cardiovascular disease across all of the Partner organisations. It also enables us to explore both the similarities and differences in our patient populations, the way we manage patients and our patient outcomes.
Importantly, it also enables us to pool resources, share our learnings and build a combined program of work.
What potential do you see for scaling up the results of your research? How can it reach more people in the health system?
Being part of Sydney Health Partners enables us to evaluate health service interventions across populations that are rich in diversity – with the Partnership serving a population of 2.7 million people across Sydney. It will also enable us to improve our interventions and identify enablers and barriers to implementation. These findings can then pave the way to wider implementation and scale up throughout the health system. Using Sydney Health Partners as a starting point makes scaling up to other local health districts much more feasible.

Customisation is so hawt right now. I swear to god every other PR item I receive has my initials on it; MY JACKET, BAGS, SHOES, WORKOUT LEGGINGS, TOOTHBRUSH, HELL, EVEN MY TANNING MITT IS PERSONALISED! That or LOBSTERS! HAHA. I'm not complaining everyone likes things that are bespoke to them ☺
So what could be more personal and bespoke than a woman's skincare routine? I love to switch mine up depending on my skins needs. It's also a seasonal thing, weather and environment dependant.
The clever people at Bio Extracts have come up with an affordable and really VERY logical approach to personalised skincare and meeting your needs depending on how you skin is looking and feeling that day. BUT I've got my eye on those products that end up being more fashionable faff than functional. Here's how Bio Extracts held up…
Concept: Let's strip this down
Everyone uses a moisturiser (I hope) and many view a serum and any additional beauty arsenal after that as optional extras. I'm a big believer in a multi-pronged approach to a skincare routine. Bio Extracts allows you to customise your skincare by first selecting your base cream (like a carrier) and then you select "Booster Serums" depending on your needs. You then boost your day cream (£27 for 30ml) with the serums (£19.50 for 10ml syringe) every time you use them therefore tailor making your own skincare everyday.
I'd imagine this would be great for a busy woman who wants to maximise her skincare regime with minimal steps and product purchasing.
So we know how it works but what does it do?
Bio Extracts was originally developed for sensitive skin types that need skin-kind emulsion-style formulations. This formula is more advanced than any water in oil or oil in water solution as it has a similar structure to the natural layers in the skin and mimics the skins own lamellar structure. It acts as a shield restoring barrier function and preventing water loss, improving hydration and protecting the skin from external irritants. Available in either Normal or Light.
It's called The Lamellar System and it's not complicated or unhygienic. The serums and cream come in the hi-tech airless jar and booster "syringes".
The Pros at a glance
How I got on
I chose the LIGHT base cream instead of NORMAL, as I do need something slightly lighter in the summer months.
I selected the following boosters: Hydro, Glow, Anti Oxidant and Anti Wrinkle*
My day to day approach tended to be a squirt of Hydro and Glow to my cream in the morning to rehydrate and give my skin a great makeup base and a few squirts of Anti Oxidant and Anti Wrinkle for detox, repair and anti ageing during the night-time. The Hydro and Glow boosters were my most used as I sometimes added them to the nighttime recipe if I felt I needed even more hydration.
I think the Bio Extracts Lamellar System is a solid skincare brand and routine. At first I was sceptical about the concept but it was neither time consuming nor a faff to do. In fact it was fun and it actually reduced the amount of product I used in both the AM & PM.
I am a sensitive skin sufferer and have dehydrated skin and the LIGHT cream was kind on my skin and I can vouch for the barrier / protection element as my skin felt more consistently less dehydrated and bouncy.
I like that the Lamellar System doesn't depend on a fun and functional way to give you skin what it needs but the leg work has been done to make sure the products are top quality with the best ingredients and are mindful of more sensitive skin types.
One thing that can be slightly daunting is selecting your product and what is right for you. The concept is easy enough to grasp; choose cream then add boosters, but the website is an encyclopaedia of information. I personally enjoyed digesting it all and the selection process, however I recognise this could be overwhelming for someone who isn't massively familiar with skincare or their needs or has the time to read through everything.
You can do the "quiz" to see what would be best for you here. Give it a go yourself!

What do you think of the concept? Does it sound right for you? Would you give it a go? Let's chat!

Gerard van den Berg Rock Chair
Gerard van den Berg Rock Chair
Original and beautiful Gerard van den Berg Rock Chair in a light brown/ cognac aniline leather (no wax finish or coating), designed for Dutch furniture producer Montis in 1970. Beautiful piece of Brutalist and Modern vintage design. In original condition, nice preserved patina of the leather, as shown on photos. The item has been checked and professionally cleaned.
Dutch designer Gerard Van Den Berg arguably defined a turning point during the 1970s, away from Classic midcentury Dutch furniture design to more contemporary design that made use of different materials such as rattan and leather. For Montis, a company he started with his brother, his design aesthetic, stemmed from concepts of comfort: cushiony seats with a solid and sturdy body. Nevertheless he maintains a sleek elegance to each piece with his balanced, and often singular, use of warm leather upholstery and carefully placed stitching.

Sydney-based vegan designer and social entrepreneur, Candy Marx, is set to launch her 'Be Kind Series' collection, aimed at promoting kind and conscious living while donating 100% of the profits to several animal welfare and conservation charities.
Marx rebranded her high-end fashion footwear label, KeilanaSkye, in 2014, after becoming aware of the environmental impact that fashion has on the environment and animals. Rebranding as KSKYE the Label, Marx uses her brand to employ artisans from developing countries and works with eco-friendly materials, such as hemp, organic cotton, and recycled metals and minerals.
"With animal welfare, conservation and humanitarianism being something that I'm passionate about, I wanted to create a simple collection that promotes these messages, while supporting charities who work in these fields," said Marx.
The charities involved are International Anti-Poaching Foundation, Rainforest Rescue, Sea Shepherd and WIRES Wildlife Rescue.
"I chose these charities because I believe in their work. I met Damien Mander, of IAPF, well over ten years ago when he was still in the military. I followed his journey into veganism, animal welfare and conservation, and I really wanted to support his work. I'm also a Wildlife Ambassador for WIRES and have supported Rainforest Rescue since the rebrand. I love the ocean, so Sea Shepherd was a no-brainer," said Marx.
Starting with organic cotton t-shirts for adults, youths and toddlers that are available in an array of colours, each piece has a conscious-living message printed on the front. The customer can choose which charity that they'd like their purchase to support, and can choose a different charity per piece. KSKYE the Label is donating 100% of the profits to the charity of the customer's choice.
"A few people have asked me what the catch is. There really is no catch. We don't take any of the profits; it's all donated. I've seen a lot of businesses use 'we donate a percentage of profits' as a marketing tool and it isn't transparent at all. I didn't want to donate as a marketing tool; I just wanted to do what I could with what I had. Once I figured that out, I was determined to take it to another level and donate 100%."
The Be Kind Series is available to view at www.kskyethelabel.com/be-kind-series

Endeavor wanted a cost effective option to brand the Saltillo Development across multiple blocks. They were looking for a more unique method that showcased a fun, creative and artsy feel to vibe with the east side. Ryan Bruce, our Graphics Account manager, suggested lower cost printing (on our HP PageWide printers in our repro department) and a wheat paste application versus vinyl banners or adhesive wall wraps. In addition to being a lower-cost alternative, another ideal feature is that when one piece is damaged, individual sheets can easily be replaced or even pasted on top of the old as an additional layer.
Plaza Saltillo Development has been in the works for decades, and Endeavor has been on the project since early 2017.
Also, congrats to Endeavor for their selection for the next acclaimed project, the development of the Austin American Statesman site on the south side of Lady Bird Lake. Read more on the selection process from earlier this year or more recent news.

IoT Community Technologies: Leaving Users to Their Own Devices or Orchestration of Engagement?
DOI: 10.4108/eai.26-10-2015.150601
Citizens are increasingly crowdfunding IoT based participatory sensing technologies that allow them to collect and share data about the environment. These initiatives are usually referred to as grassroots and are driven by a vision of widening access to tools for political action. In this paper we compare patterns of participation and user experience over 15 months in two distinct communities using 'Smart Citizen', a crowdfunded IoT participatory sensing tool. Our studies reveal that technology issues and a lack of reliability of the sensed data hindered user participation. However, in one of the communities, many of these challenges were overcome through orchestrated actions led by community champions. We discuss how crowdfunding doesn't necessarily translate into active participation and provide guidelines on how to achieve sustained engagement in crowdfunded IoT community sensing projects: enable distributed orchestration provided by local champions, encourage social interactions that embed skills and learning, and facilitate meaningful participation and reward mechanisms among community members.

Of all the low standard TV programmes of the present day, Loose Women is one of the most excretable. It combines shallow tabloid gossip-column mindlessness with malicious feminist hatemongering. It was launched around the same time the BBC banned all-male sports and political panels as part of their long and brutal march towards "Equality!" Its concept therefore smacks of vainglory. However, even in the filthiest dung heap a jewel can sometimes be found. Kim Wilde is quite a jewel. I admired her enormously as soon as I was old enough to think in those terms and she is still beautiful today at the age of fifty-seven. Her debut single Kids in America is virtually an anthem of my childhood. However since then she has revealed a hitherto private aspect of her life. On last Monday's episode of Loose Women she revealed that she had seen a UFO. Her sighting happened in 2009 when she had taken her son to hospital with suspected swine flu. She saw a bright light at the back of her house and went into the garden to look at it. She saw several lights that appeared to be chasing each other and part of a much larger structured object partly hidden by the clouds. She was not the only witness. Her husband saw it and went to look for a camera to film it, but couldn't find one. Many other people saw it. It even made the headlines of her local newspaper. She believes that aliens are "keeping an eye on us." She suspects that they are very disappointed with how we treat each other and the planet, understandably. This theme comes up in contact cases too. I wonder if Kim has had any but has forgotten them; or perhaps doesn't want to reveal them yet.

Well done to Kim Wilde for speaking out about her experience. It takes a lot of courage to talk openly about these matters when you are in the public gaze. She will no doubt be lampooned in the media novelty slots the same way Robbie Williams was, see background links below. I hate it when that happens and will do my best to defend people who are abused in that manner. I wish her all the best.

This passage describes the use of symbols called "emoticons" in electronic writing.
Emoticons, graphic symbols used in e-mails and other forms of electronic communication, are a form of paralanguage primarily intended to show facial expression or emotion. The word "emoticon" is a portmanteau, meaning that it is composed of two other words: "emotion" and "icon." Using only written words to communicate limits the writer and can sometimes cause misunderstanding. There are many variations of emoticons, but most of us recognize the smiling face "J" and frowning face "L" as basic indications of happiness and unhappiness, respectively. A colon is used to represent the eyes and a parenthesis forms the mouth. Sometimes a hyphen is used for a nose. Using an emoticon allows the writer to add emotion to what he or she is saying. This can be a way of emphasizing what the written words are saying, or it may be a way to suggest teasing or sarcasm. In any case, the emoticon replaces the contextual cues that would be present in face-to-face communication.

Tacos and Coffee Make the Perfect Pair at Fox Loves Taco
Fox Loves Taco transforms a corner of a DC bike shop into a colorful space where eaters can enjoy a very specific pairing: coffee and breakfast tacos. Although this combination doesn't allow for a huge menu, the folks behind the counter are experts at crafting artisan cups of coffee and equally gourmet tacos.
You can't go wrong with a classic migas taco, stuffed with scrambled eggs with sofrito, tortilla chips, Tillamook cheddar, radish, cilantro, and hominy. For something with a bit more spice, try the Street Fighter taco with pulled pork and red mole sauce, jalapenos, and radish. The Power-Up, meanwhile, is packed with fresh veggies in the form of mushrooms, brussels sprouts, and sweet potatoes, plus carrot-jalapeno slaw, queso fresco, and vin cotta. Whichever taco you choose, pair it with a carefully brewed cup of coffee or a seasonally inspired agua fresca.

If I were a University President…
Of course the first thing to realise is that in practice a University President in Ireland has surprisingly little power to change anything.
Caught between the Department of Education, the HEA, Budget cuts, the Unions, Students, Parents and all the other vested interests a University President, rather than having the sweeping powers that their title might suggest, is more like a man (and here I should of course say "or woman" - but this is Ireland - that's never going to happen) trapped inside a strait-jacket with only a small amount of wriggle room to temporarily ease the pressure points.
But the problem is becoming urgent. Higher education is just too expensive, and maintaining the current model is not sustainable. If we carry on are we are, fees must rise to UK levels, with the inevitable consequence that university education will again become the preserve of the rich, as the middle classes buckle under the strain of austerity. And while we might object to this on high-minded equalitarian grounds, the fact is that this country sells itself as a country with a highly educated population with the skills necessary for the next century. So we need to have 50% or more of the population with a University degree or equivalent to keep Ireland Inc afloat. But we simply can't afford it!
Unfortunately the current University model is for now the only show in town. It is clearly very seductive. The Institutes of Technology for example see no future for themselves other than to become fully fledged (and almost immediately bankrupt) "Technological" Universities. It will be interesting to see how quickly they manage to shed that unwanted qualifier "Technological".
The reality is that we need a lower cost model for Higher Education. This is blindingly obvious (to me), but rather surprisingly the penny does not seem to have dropped yet. Most commentators on education, as beneficiaries and/or products of the current system, perhaps cannot be expected to question it. In fact not only can we not afford Universities, we probably can't afford University Presidents either, and the administrative baggage that goes with such a hierarchy.
Of course the objection to all this is that we are not an island (well actually…). We must keep up with the Jones's next door. We must at least maintain our position in the international rankings. We must continue to look and feel like a regular University, a "real" University. I guess it's the same instinct that keeps a lemming running alongside its peers.
Historical note: Actually I do remember a time when we in DCU managed to thrive as a "National Institute for Higher Education", when as a country we had the courage to experiment with a new model outside of the norm.
Anyway to answer my own question, if I were a University President with plenipotentiary powers I would bulldoze the library (now only relevant for eyeing up potential sexual partners), sign up with a good MOOC provider, sack all vice-Presidents, Deans, Heads of School, reduce the Human Resources department to one (really good) individual, close down or sell off all sports facilities, organise academic Schools as collectives which appoint their own leaders, use the savings to reduce fees to an absolute minimum (and put the other Universities out of business), and finally sack myself.
And specifically if I were President of DCU I would bulldoze the Helix (an extreme example of mission drift), and cut down that massive 50 foot high Leylandii hedge that separates the DCU campus from St. Aidan's school next door and sends out entirely the wrong message to the local community. (Actually that last would be quite easy to do myself – I see Aldi do a nice petrol chainsaw for less than 100 Euro..)

Just installed the new supplied Telstra SmartModem (Frontier), all lights green, it is working on fall back to mobile network as the NBN FTTN is not working (a work in progress). I can access modem login screen via WIFI and Ethernet, I can login to modem ok but no internet pages load, nil, nothing no messages other than timeout. Using IE and Firefox, restored both browsers to default, clear caches.
I did see where Windows reported IPV4 and IPV6 no internet access but after a reboot of both modem and pc IPV6 reports internet access, IPV4 no internet. Still have no browser pages loading other than the modem login. Same problem across all devices, Win7 PC, smartphone and android tablet. All IP settings for DHCP, no IP hard coded, modem settings as per default I have not changes any default modem setting. Everything on modem looks correct, do not understand why IPV4 sees no internet but IPV6 reports as internet connected. This one has me beat, any suggestions appreciated. Past experience of Telstra support has been not positive for when it gets technical and I don't want to repeat the same instructions for the 100th time to check or replace cables, reboot/reset, wait endless hours or to be told its a network outage - you know the drill. Hoping the crowd can assist.
Solved! Go to Solution.
It looks like you are connected to node but Telstra has not finished setting up your service.
I would leave it running on backup with DSL port disconnected until Telstra notifies you that your service has been activated. The phone does not work when working on backup.
Was this helpful?
Thank you for your feedback
Thank you for your feedback
We can help right nowContact Us Ask a Question Have Feedback?
Could you post the Broadband page info of the modem.
If working on backup all lights should not be green. Would expect link light to be off, and online light to be magenta. For a FTTN connection nothing should be connected to the WAN port and if you are still waiting for the FTTN try disconnecting the DSL port.
Thanks cf4 for the reply.
At risk of scaring you off, lots of photos here.All photos with titles.
As suggested by you I disconnected the FTTN and the modem did fallback to mobile with access to internet immediately given with no change to any device. When plug FTTN back in internet access lost. Can confirm nothing plugged into WAN port.
When on mobile access lights "OnLine" is mauve, "Signal" is green, photo below.
Broadband info screen when mobile connection are 2 photos below
To compare I have included the same screens when connected by FTTN broadband screens and lights.
Finally I have included 2 images of the menu screen when by mobile and FTTN connections respectively.
That should keep you busy!
Do you see anything?
I do now have internet by fallback mobile from the Frontier modem, when I first posted the fallback mobile connection did not work, now it does.
I am unsure if the FTTN has been made working and I need to make setup adjustments or if the FTTN connection has yet to be made active. No update or notice from Telstra if work done.
If you need any other info let me know.
Thanks again.
Thanks for providing the images. It could be that Telstra has not finished connecting you to the NBN. One thing that doesn't look right is the slow VDSL speed 2.08 up and 13.9 down.
Could you provide a screen shot of
Advanced > Broadband > DSL stats and Advanced > Broadband > DSL Diagnostics
One thing you could try is factory resetting modem
Titled screen grabs for when FTTN connected and unplugged / mobile active
Advanced > Broadband > DSL stats
Advanced > Broadband > DSL Diagnostics
It looks like you are connected to node but Telstra has not finished setting up your service.
I would leave it running on backup with DSL port disconnected until Telstra notifies you that your service has been activated. The phone does not work when working on backup.
Normally the Gateway can be connected to the phone line and work on back while waiting for connection to NBN but it looks like there must have been a previous NBN service at your residence with another provider.

Let's talk about why you you want wall lettering:
- capture a memory, a favorite quote, an emotion, a value
- decorate a space in a personal way
- set the inspiration for yourself and your audience, whether at home or in the office
- add a touch of color to a room
- no-frills, easy installation without holes or wall damage
We'll make the size whatever you tell us. For best results, measure the destination space before designing or ordering.
YES, you can order just one.
Best of all, this wall graphic is fabricated by the professionals at Dprint, so you don't have to worry if your mark will last. The letters will be aligned and held together with a surface mask so that installation is a breeze. With care (see "caring for your mark"), you can expect color brilliance indoors for basically forever.
Not all wall graphics are equal. Some manufacturers use cheap materials, but sometimes a graphic will peel from your wall due solely to an unsuitable surface. Please follow our guidelines for preparing the destination surface so that you will love your wall lettering forever, and it will love the wall it hangs on so much that it will stay in place as long as you wish!
- Drywall or wood: PAINT your SMOOTH destination surface with a high VOC paint and allow it to dry for 3 weeks prior to application. You can test for dryness by attempting to scratch the paint with your fingernail. No scratch? It's dry.
- Metal: No special preparation is required.
- Plastic: Not recommended. Many plastics will out-gas and cause the lettering to bubble or release.
- Cardboard or other papered surfaces: Clean only with a dry soft cloth and use low-tack tape for hinging and positioning.
Clean all destination surfaces (other than cardboard/paper) first with a tack cloth (to remove dust) and then with a clean cloth spritzed with denatured alcohol (to remove contaminants).
Use masking tape and a level to position your wall lettering in place. Next, make a vertical hinge by applying a strip of masking tape vertically across the midpoint of your lettering. The tape should extend 4-6" away from the graphic on both top and bottom. Starting at the left, peel the material away from its paper liner all the way to the masking tape hinge. Cut away the liner. Begin at the hinge line, making overlapping vertical strokes with a squeegee all the way up to the left edge. Remove the masking tape hinge and peel away the liner paper from the rest of the lettering.
Start at the hinge line again, making overlapping vertical strokes all the way to the right edge. Once applied, the paper mask on top of the lettering can be removed by peeling it back at about 120 degrees from the surface.
TIP: For best performance, do not cut the graphic on top of the wall and do not attempt to push the graphic into corners or over moldings. If you have questions, call the professionals at DPRINT before you get started.
Clean your mark in the same method you clean the surrounding surface. That's as easy as it gets.
When you're ready for something new, it's easy to remove the old lettering. Gently peel away each letter by starting at a top corner and pulling at an angle of at least 120 degrees. You can use a razor blade or exacto knife to lift the starting edge, but be very careful not to gouge the surface (or yourself!). Your lettering will remove cleanly with no residue or damage to the wall.
