Editors, I thank you to reflect my comment on HTML 4.0 spec (section 5.2.2) to HTML 4.0 errata, but I am sorry that I made a mistake in my previous message and it has affected to the errata. I wrote: > The META declaration must only be used when the character encoding > is organized such that ASCII characters stand for themselves (at > least until the META element is parsed). > (5.2.2 Specifying the character encoding) (snip) > So I consider the word "ASCII characters" of the HTML 4.0 spec quoted > above to be replaced with "ASCII-valued octets". This sed-like operation makes the sentence "... when the character is organized such that ASCII-valued octets stand for themselves (...)". That is another trivial sentence because octets are always octets themselves. So, that should be "... such that ASCII-valued octets stand for ASCII characters (...)", like a sentence of RFC 2070.

Director Sam Taylor-Johnson has confirmed she is quitting the Fifty Shades Of Gray franchise, and will not return to helm the two planned sequels.
Reports recently surfaced suggesting the British filmmaker was keen to cut ties with the big screen adaptations of E.L. James' popular erotic thrillers, after repeatedly clashing with the author over creative control on the first film.
On Wednesday (25Mar15), Taylor-Johnson made the split official in a statement which reads, "Directing Fifty Shades of Gray has been an intense and incredible journey for which I am hugely grateful. I have (studio) Universal to thank for that. I forged close and lasting relationships with the cast, producers and crew and most especially, with (stars) Dakota (Johnson) and Jamie (Dornan). While I will not be returning to direct the sequels, I wish nothing but success to whosoever takes on the exciting challenges of films two and three."
Screenwriter Kelly Marcel, who adapted Fifty Shades of Gray, will also not return for the follow-ups.
Bosses at Universal have yet to announce a replacement for Taylor-Johnson, but Johnson and Dornan are expected to reprise their leading roles for Fifty Shades Darker and Fifty Shades Freed.
The first installment of James' trilogy has already grossed more than $558 million at the worldwide box office following its release last month (Feb15).

Report: Democracy For The People
Guide to Convention Funding: Cleveland GOP Convention
On July 18-21, the Republican Party will hold its 2016 Republican National Convention in Cleveland, Ohio, concluding the party's presidential primary, and finalizing the Republican party platform. This report examines the money behind the convention, where it comes from, how convention fundraising has changed over time, and funding in this year's Republican primary.
While big-money is often examined in the context of campaign and super PAC fundraising, the convention offers another outlet for spending by mega-donors and corporations interested in influencing political outcomes. With the exception of federal security grants and smaller municipal expenditures, this year's conventions will be financed entirely with private funding. These are the first conventions held since public financing for party conventions was eliminated in 2014.
If the GOP's Cleveland Host Committee meets its fundraising goals, this year's convention is expected to rank among the most expensive party conventions in terms of private fundraising.
This report provides key fundraising numbers, an easy-to-follow map outlining convention funding sources, a timeline of changes to convention fundraising, a breakdown of convention spending, top Republican convention funders, and information on proposed campaign finance reforms. Due to the post-convention release of fundraising data by the convention's host committee, this report relies on a combination of fundraising numbers from this year's convention, fundraising reports from previous conventions, and self-reported fundraising numbers.

"NetDimensions Learning helps us create consistency and common understanding across the business units, reduce the time spent away from the workplace and introduce blended learning that is stimulating and interactive."
NetDimensions enables Metropolitan to use eLearning to complement their workshop-based training for a true blended learning approach.
Read this case study to learn how NetDimensions Learning complemented Metropolitan Housing Partnership's (MHP) workshop-based training for a true blended learning approach.
MHP s a unique network of locally focused member organizations working together to provide housing and community support services. MHP's staff are based in different cities in the UK. Most of them don't work regular hours or may not use a computer regularly. Learning and Organizational Development (L&OD) within MHP played an important role to assist the entire partnership in meeting their goals and improving performance. To better support L&OD objectives, MHP decided all L&D resources had to be transferred into a separate system that could host and report on a vast range of eLearning modules. This system needed to easily interface with existing systems and with the partnership's intranet that contained MHP's policies, procedures and information in order to support this transition.

iMessage, but who reads? Apple logs message contacts and location
Apple may have been paying lip service when it frequently assured its customers of its commitment to privacy, including denying the FBI the ability to hack into an iPhone. Turns out Apple logs the location of iMessage and shares information with police.
For iPhone users, there's a world of difference between a text message sent in a green bubble and another sent in a blue one. Green means that a message is sent through a standard SMS service, but blue signifies that the message has been sent through Apple's end-to-end encrypted messaging network that has been a point of pride for the company's privacy policy.
While the messages are indeed end-to-end encrypted, it may not be as secure as it sounds. The encryption keeps Apple from being able to actually read your messages, but that does not mean these messages aren't leaving a trail that Apple can follow.
New #Apple update will push #iPhone users to become organ donors https://t.co/VfGO01ZqAU pic.twitter.com/ilZRrsRK6b
— RT America (@RT_America) July 5, 2016
.Documents obtained by the Intercept show that Apple records the IP address of its users every time they launch a query by trying to contact someone through Apple's Messages app. Basically what happens is that your phone reaches Apple's servers to see if the message can be sent through their network or if it needs to be sent via SMS.

WMC extenders, can an extender be another windows 7 pc?
I have a windows7 pc with a tuner recording tv shows.
Can that one be controlled from a LAN networked windows pc with WMC?
If so, how to set that up.
Idea is to watch Live TV from the other windows 7 pc on the Lan and switch channels, etc...
|My System Specs
|01 Mar 2014
What type of tuner(s) do you have in the PC with the tuner card(s) doing the WMC recording?
Watching "live" TV through an HTPC requires availability of a tuner dedicated to that HTPC (either locally installed or "network shared" from another HTPC that contains multiple tuners). Or, you can use a true "extender".
A second Windows PC is NOT an "extender" and cannot be used as one. Only a true "extender" (e.g. Linksys DMA2100, XBox, Ceton Echo, etc.) can be used as a true extender, i.e. to allow watching (live or recorded) copy-protected content delivered from the HTPC with the cablecard-enabled tuner to the extender and then watched on the HDTV connected via HDMI to the extender.
However if the recorded content is NOT marked copy-protected but is instead marked copy-freely (e.g. from an OTA/ATSC tuner), then you can use either Windows Media Center or Windows Media Player on the second Win7 PC to PLAY the WTV program content recorded by the primary HTPC.
But in order to watch live TV on the second PC you must be able to use one or more of the tuner(s) located on the primary HTPC. And that requires a TV tuner card which supports "network sharing of tuners", as the Ceton tuner card/drivers do. This allows one or more tuners in the HTPC to actually be controlled by WMC running on the second PC, as if those tuners were physically installed into the second PC.
If you don't have a Ceton card then I can't say, as it's a function of whatever TV tuner card you have in the HTPC as to whether or not "network sharing" of tuners is available.
But ignoring the issue of watching "live TV" and being able to control tuners to change channels from the second PC, for sure the second PC can be used to PLAY recorded WTV content on the primary HTPC if that content is copy-freely. If it is copy-protected (e.g. from a cable channel, recorded through the Ceton cablecard-enabled tuners) then you CANNOT play it on the second PC. For that you DO need a real "extender".
Note that the Silicon Dust HDHomeRun devices ("network-based tuners") support network sharing, to one or more computers running WMC.
Also, when configuring "shared network tuners" (to allow "live" viewing and control of channels) those tuners are allocated uniquely and permanently (until reconfigured) to a specific PC, one at a time. They cannot be shared among multiple HTPC's running WMC, thus cannot be used "on-demand" by whichever PC needs them at the moment.
|My System Specs
|03 Mar 2014
Thanks for that info.
I was thinking HDHR networked ethernet tuners were dynamically available but you say they are not?
So they lock onto the configured PC?
I got an ATI wonder HDTV pci card used off ebay for $12
If the HDHR are not dynamic, then to me the advantage is not so good over a pci or usb.
I knew I could watch recorded TV, was not sure about these tuners.
|My System Specs
|03 Mar 2014
But I did just check the Ceton site, and it appears that with their new InfiniTV 6 ETH (which is a network-based set of 6 tuners, so I guess it's similar to what HDHR kind of is) they DO offer "dynamic pooling of tuners, available as-needed to multiple PCs".
Tuner Sharing!
Unlike the PCI Express and USB versions of InfiniTV, InfiniTV 6 ETH is an Ethernet-connected tuner that plugs into your home network and not to a specific PC. This makes it a great solution if you want to share tuners with other PCs on your network. You can assign specific tuners to specific PCs – for example, assigning tuners 1 to 4 to one PC and tuners 5-6 to another. We're also adding dynamic tuner pooling to InfiniTV 6 ETH, which will automatically allocate the 6 tuners between different PCs as needed. Dynamic tuner pooling is currently available in beta firmware through the Ceton Diagnostics Tool.
But be very careful: network-based tuners depend on reliable high-bandwidth in your home LAN, especially when multiple tuners are being used simultaneously for recording or live-viewing of HD content.
And if you add additional bandwidth for extender/PC viewing of HD content, well you're easily now above 10/100 network capability. And it's not just going out and buying a gigabit router that will solve your problem. You truly do need to have Cat5e or Cat6 cabling from the router to other locations around your home (where there might be other PC's with gigabit NIC's, or gigabit switches to support multiple attached ethernet devices around that "node").
In my own opinion, wireless is not good enough or reliable enough for my own HDTV needs. A few years ago I simply bit the bullet and pulled new Cat6 cabling to where I needed it, as well as buying a handful of Netgear GS-105 switches for various locations around the house, to connect to my Netgear WNDR4000 router. I also added a Netgear WN604 (10/100 wired) wireless access point plugged into my kitchen ethernet port, since I was not reaching the kitchen with wireless from the router located in the back bedroom.
|My System Specs
|03 Mar 2014
yes, gigabit Ethernet is so much better.
I also switched to gigabit using a 5 port switch, I have 4 PC's conecting to the switch at gigabit speeds.
I have a 100 wireless router for the IP's.
My wire is most all Cat5e and works ok at gigabit. the switch has lights for 1000 or 100 so easy to see.
As soon as you start moving multi gig files, you will want gigabit eternet.

Buddy Rush ® Review
Freemium titles, or more specifically, games that implement some form of play restriction can get a bad rap, especially if the game harshly limits the time you can play as an incentive to spend money. Adding a social twist via Facebook only seeks to reinforce the habit (and knock the competitive aspect up a notch) and it's easy to feel a bit skeptical about new similar titles, especially if you've been burned in the past.

The Red Door Team Seller Services
How can the The Red Door Team help you with the sale of YOUR home?
The Red Door Team has an unparalleled history with successful home sales in Snohomish & King County. In 2016 the majority of our listings sold in 45 days or less with multiple offers. Here are some of the reasons why.
Leveraged Listings - A Team Approach
The Red Door Team is a 9 person real estate team, uniquely structured to leverage our sellers in a complicated market. With our team, you receive 9 professionals to help assure a smooth and stress-free transaction.
The Red Door Team is Committed to working with you to sell your home...
For The Highest Possible Price
It is hard to prove that our listings sell for more than they might sell elsewhere on the market. The closest we've come to that sort of measurement is in that we've been responsible for more than 5 sales that were marketed for over a year by another firm, and that we placed back on the market for a HIGHER PRICE and then successfully sold.
In The Shortest Amount of Time
The ability to advise on market timing is our competitive advantage. Our marketing program is consistent and predictable giving us a number of reliable metrics that can help us identify how long it will take each listing to sell. The majority of the homes we sold in 2014 sold for 45 days or less, as compared to the market average of over 100.
With The Least Hassle
We want your biggest concern during the home sale process to be that you were expecting the process to be harder. The Red Door Team strives to provide first class customer service, and a "let us handle that for you" approach to the sale. We've refined our process so precisely - nothing falls through the cracks.
Visually Stand Out Amongst The Competition
Professional Photography is essential to a successful home sale. Buyers find the home they purchase primarily by looking on the Internet and by asking real estate agents.
An excellent agent with a terrific Internet marketing program is your best path to a sale.
We include professional real estate photography with every listing, as part of our full service listing fee. Our photographers are the best in the business. Their equipment (including wide angle lenses, a 30 foot raised photography lift, and professional lighting) provides for stunning photos every time. If you've searched for homes in the market lately, you've likely noted that many properties are photographed with digital cameras or even smart phones, and the result is obvious. We want our properties to stand out and impress potential buyers at first glance, and draw people in to want to see more. A buyer will often see hundreds of home photos before they will ever set foot in a property, so we need our "first showing" of your home to be as impressive as possible.
Facebook Sneak Previews
In the first 24 hours of your listing going live in the MLS, we run a Facebook Ad and can guarantee 5000+ views of your home by people within a 5 mile radius of your home. This creates buyer inquiries and urgency, and can also help us track the traffic and let you know how your listing is stacking up against our other successful home sales.
Unparalleled Internet Presence and Social Media Exposure
Our Listings receive an unparalleled amount of internet exposure. When you list with the Red Door Team, we'll have access to the Keller Williams Listing System, or KWLS. This proprietary,exclusive system ensures your property is marketed online 24/7 through more than 350 of the most popular search Websites.
Here are just a few of the places you will find our homes online:
All of our listings are on Realtor.com. This pushes buyers to your home before seeing those of your competitors.
Realtor.com is among the top 2 web search engines in the nation, is backed by NAR and feeds from every MLS, and is considered the most reliable search engine when property status is concerned.
Listings feature more photos, lengthier property descriptions, interactive mapping, and custom neighborhood information pages. They have increased exposure as well as differentiation on the Search Results pages and Listing Detail pages, and according to Realtor.com, receive 3x more views than regular listings.
We'll create a custom website specific to your home. It will have a unique domain name for your street address, and it will be syndicated to more than 20 major property search portals such as Zillow, Trulia, and Homes.com. This link will give us an easy way to spread the word about the home quickly and gives us a unique address to pass out, that will be for a site that doesn't feature any other competitive homes!
All of our listings over $500,000 will be features on the world wide Luxury Homes website.
Additional Websites
Your home will also be featured on Zillow, Trulia, Oodle, Houzz, Facebook, HomeDatabase, Google Plus, Twitter, Pinterest, LinkedIn, YouTube, and more. We always challenge our clients to try to find a reputable real estate website that their home is NOT on, and can guarantee we'll get it there.
Our Affiliations and Global Network of Homes
Although we are only physically located in Bothell, WA , our reach and exposure is nationwide.
Leading Real Estate Companies of the World
While we may not have a company name that you've heard of throughout hundreds of cities worldwide, we are actually a part of a global network and real estate affiliation that is stronger than the other large franchise companies in our market.
Keller Williams in not your traditional Real Estate company, which is why it is not surprising that we are the fastest growing real estate company in North America! Our phenomenal growth is only part of the story:

Click HERE to look take a closer look at where your home will be featured on within 24 hours of activation in the MLS.
Enhanced Marketing to Other Agents
Our marketing plan includes several enhanced marketing campaigns to our co-brokering agents.
Brokers Open / Open Houses
Once your homes is LIVE on the MLS, The Red Door Team will host a brokers open and/or open house to draw attention from other cooperating agents in town as well as prospective buyers. This will hopefully condense some of the showing activity into a set time frame (eliminating some of the spontaneous showing requests), but also gives us a chance to get some immediate candid feedback on the home, it's price, and it's competitive qualities when compared to the other homes on the market. We hope to attract folks who might not have noticed the home online or who need to see it in person to realize that it might be a match for one of their clients. As always, the more exposure, the better, and this is just one way to increase the word-of-mouth buzz being generated about your home.
Blast Email Campaign
With 1000+ agents in the Snohomish & King County area all juggling a handful of different clients at any given time, it can be challenging to keep up with every new listing that comes into the market. Within 24 hours of your home being listed, we will create and send a customized email blast to the entire Snohomish & King County Area Association of Realtors. This way, we can highlight the home and announce it to our co-brokering agents, but can also add a bit more detail to them about who might be a good buyer for this home and the type of buyer we think it might be well suited for. We can also utilize this blast to invite agents to the brokers open house or to encourage agents to forward along to their clients, inviting their clients to a public open house, if applicable.
Personal Outreach to Agents with Similar Recent Sales
There is one simple step that most of our competitors never think to take. We're going to reach out to the agents who have most recently participated in sales in your neighborhood or of similar homes. There is a chance that they may have a leftover buyer for the same area, or that they might have some market insight from their sale that could be useful to ours. It's our job to keep your property top of mind with cooperating agents.
Professional Print Advertising
Print advertising may not drive real estate sales quite the way it did 20 years ago, but we still believe it to bean important piece of the marketing puzzle.
Just Listed Postcards
Within 10 days of your home being listed in the MLS, your neighborhood will receive a "Just Listed" postcard, appealing to them to help us find your buyer and reminding them that a strong home sale for you is a positive for the whole neighborhood. Your neighbors are often the biggest advocates for the area and may have friends who want to live nearby, so while some of them may just be curious or "nosy", we want them to be as informed about the home as possible.
Reverse Prospecting Postcards
We know that people move-up to homes roughly 30% more expensive than their current home. We will choose 2-3 neighborhoods with a price range 30% below yours, with owners who we think might be appropriate move-up buyers for your home. We will target market via direct mail to those households.
Professionally Designed Brochures
We want to make sure that when a buyer goes home at the end of the day, having toured as many as 10 or 15 homes, that they remember OUR listings clearly and compellingly. We hope that they will walk out of our competitors homes with an MLS sheet in hand, and then out of our listings with a professionally designed and printed glossy 8 page brochure, a home information booklet, and a lasting memory of what they loved about it. We can't guarantee that we will always be a buyers very top choice, but we will be the most memorable!

I don't know if I've just been a dummy and completely missed the press release but it appears Cadbury have NEW Spreads out - Huzzah! Caramel and Crunchie versions is where it is at and although not exactly adventurous.. I was still pretty chuffed spotting them when shopping.
It was of course in Tesco where I found these 400g screw top jars, priced at £2.25 each - I very much like how the packaging reflects the actual chocolate bars! Further snazzy news.. They are only bloomin' suitable for Vegetarians!
A swirly and a bobbly - The Spreads looked the part!
If only you could smell through your Tech screens as the scent was sensational! - Buttery, caramelly, sweet goodness! Taking a scoop, the Spread appeared to be very soft and ready for spreading but naturally, I just ate it as it was, there and then. Silky smooth in texture and a good chocolatey flavour was the first thing to hit me which then developed into a super sweet toffee like taste - Not super high quality but decent enough. It was a little to easy to eat one spoonful after another but fair warning, it did get a tad cloying.. I expect this would be eliminated though if you had it on something rather than straight out of the jar! It's a 3.5 out of 5 from me.
Up next.. The Crunchie Spread! Once again, it smelt divine and this time, almost coffee like despite none being listed in the ingredients. Another difference I noticed immediately was that the contents of the jar seemed to be a tad thicker to the above with more resistance when scooping - Perhaps due to the nibs or maybe just pot luck! Taste wise, it was less sweet and more cocoa rich to the Caramel with a fudgey hint along with a whiff of that coffee I could smell.. Or imagined more like! The honeycomb pieces added the signature Crunchie taste and were a lovely contrast in texture to the soft, although some bits were really quite hard so I would advise going easy and watching your teeth! It's a 4 out of 5 from me.
Well, I don't know why these NEW Spreads haven't been plastered everywhere online as they really aren't half bad! Yes, they are very sweet and probably quite sickly if you ate a lot.. But on toast, porridge or heaven forbid, spread on a cake, they will do the job nicely! Well done, Cadbury.. Mondaléz.. Whatever you're calling yourself nowadays.

1. Re: How can i edit the favourite Resources portlet to show more nodes for availability on dashboardjay shaughnessy Dec 1, 2011 10:57 AM (in response to Sai teegela)
I'm not sure which version you're using but with recent RHQ versions, or the upcoming JON release, I don't think there is that sort of limit on the number of favorite resources. Although, I'm not sure using favorites is the best way to do what you want. I think whatyou may want to use is the "Platform Utilization" portlet (also in the Report view). This will list all of your platforms and a little bit about each, like cpu/memory/swap. If the platform is down it will report those numbers as N/A (Not Applicable). Also, the "Alerted ot Unavailable" resources portlet will show down resources. The Inventory Platforms view will also give you a listing of platforms with availability status.

The National Football League club owners, who threw money around last year like rich uncles, have become as tightfisted as Mr. Scrooge. They are clutching their purse strings so tightly that some big-name rookies are remaining on the sidelines while training camps move into high gear.
Only six of 28 first-round picks have signed contracts, and both player agents and general managers predict some of the holdouts could be lengthy.

Fox Orders Up More Bob's Burgers
Would you like fries with this announcement?
Fox apparently loves the taste of Bob's Burgers. Vulture hears that later today the network will announce it's green-lighting production on nine more half-hour episodes of the off-beat animated family comedy, even before the show's second season debuts. Season two of the 20th Century Fox TV̵produced toon, announced back in April, will now run for 22 episodes instead of 13. However, depending on how the just-debuted Allen Gregory and the upcoming Napoleon Dynamite turn out, it's possible some of these episodes of Bob's won't actually air until the 2012–13 season. Whenever they run, the pickup is a vote of confidence in Bob's, which is exec produced by Loren Bouchard (Dr. Katz) and Jim Dauterive (King of the Hill), and features H. Jon Benjamin (Archer) as the voice of a frazzled patriarch trying to run a family-owned greasy spoon. Upcoming plotlines for season two will find Bob and his brood experimenting with a food truck and getting involved with a needy bank robber.

Over 20 years of federal tax breaks and state purchase mandates have failed to turn wind energy into an economically viable industry. The industry has disappointingly little to show for the handout, in terms of long-term job creation and energy affordability. But despite this poor performance, Congress and the IRS have repeatedly extended and expanded the production tax credit (PTC), the main tax break for wind energy. This year, this ever-expanding tax credit expanded even further.
First, at the start of January, Congress included a provision in the Fiscal Cliff deal to extend and greatly expand the PTC through lower eligibility requirements. In the past, wind farms had to be placed in service and generating electricity in order to claim the credit; starting in January, they only had to be in the beginning stages of construction. The IRS clarified shortly thereafter that wind farm projects would be able to receive the credit if they spent as little as 5 percent of the construction costs.
Then, in April, the IRS issued a notice that raised the value of the tax credit from $22 per megawatt-hour of electricity produced to $23 cents.
These changes, which occur with little public notice, mean that the PTC costs taxpayers more and more every year. Historically, the PTC has cost an average of $5 billion per year; thanks largely to these expansions, it's on track to cost $12 billion this year. Given the federal government's serious fiscal problems, it makes no sense to give increasing levels of support to any private industry, particularly one as inefficient as wind energy.
These repeated extensions and recent expansions were apparently not enough for the wind energy industry, as its lobbyists are currently asking Congress for even more help. Testifying before a House Oversight subcommittee in October, a spokesman for the American Wind Energy Alliance (AWEA) called for extending the PTC for six more years—a "phase-down" plan in name only.
If members of Congress are serious about creating jobs and keeping energy affordable for hardworking Americans, then they should stop giving special favors to their favorite energy technologies. They should encourage an energy portfolio based on energies that can actually make it on their own in the marketplace—not ones that need to be propped up with handouts indefinitely. Unfortunately for American taxpayers, few show signs of stopping the ever-increasing handouts. The PTC is currently scheduled to expire on December 31, 2013, and Congress should ensure that it does.

Frank Sinatra Jr. Lives Up To Father's NameMarch 16th, 2010
Growing up under one of the most famed musician ever can be a tough act, but Frank Sinatra Jr. has played it well. Born on January 10, 1944 in Jersey City, New Jersey, Franklin Wayne Emmanuel Sinatra is the son of the well known musician and actor Frank Sinatra and Nancy Barbato.Â
The family as a whole has lived up to the last name as Frank Sinatra Jr. has a younger sister Tina who is a television producer and an older singer and actress Nancy Sinatra. However, Frank Jr. is perhaps the most famous of the siblings with his own musical career. Over the years is has been an American singer, songwriter and conductor.
There is no question that music was in the blood of Frank Jr. Despite hardly ever seeing his father who was constantly on the road performing, he does recall wanting to become a piano player and songwriter very early in life. It did not take long before he was performing at local clubs and venues in his early teens.
He became the vocalist for Sam Donahue's band at the age of 19 and was often seen learning the music business with Duke Ellington as well. He knew the time and effort that would have to be invested into performing in order to become the type of musician he wanted. By the time he was 24, Frank Jr. had performed in 47 states and 30 countries, was a guest host on countless television shows, had sung with his own band in Las Vegas casinos, and was building up the reputation of someone who went through rigorous rehearsals and high musical standards.
Frank Jr. was quick to note that having a famous father did open some doors. But at the same time, he said it meant he had to work three times as hard to live up to the expectations. In addition to performing, he also appeared in the Sammy Davis Jr. television drama A Man Called Adam in 1966.Â
In the midst of all of his fame and pursuance of a musical career, he was kidnapped at the age of 19 on December 8, 1963 at Harrah's Lake Tahoe. The kidnappers demanded a $240,000 ransom, which was paid by Frank Sr. and Frank Jr. was released two days later. The kidnappers would later be captured, prosecuted, convicted and sentenced to short prison terms.
Over the years Frank Sinatra Jr. has appeared in many television shows and has released several new songs and albums. He had a guest spot playing himself on The Sopranos for a short time along with a single appearance in a 2006 episode and a 2008 of Family Guy.
In 2006 he released an album entitled That Face! that included well-known songs "You'll Never Know†and "Spice.â€Â Although he is by no means as famous as his father, Frank Sinatra Jr. has certainly lived a fulfilling and successful life thus far. From his music to guest roles in television shows to guest appearances on late night shows, Frank Jr. has continued to be in the eye of the public.
The Frank Sinatra House in Twin Palms Palm Springs, California
Designed in 1947 by E. Stewart Williams for Frank Sinatra and his first wife, Nancy Barbato, Twin Palms is a spectacular example of mid-century architecture in the heart of Palm Springs' Movie Colony community.  E. Stewart Williams created a masterpiece residence with seamless interior / exterior flow. Twin Palms Estate is located just around the corner from residences once owned by Al Jolson, Jack Benny and Cary Grant. This Palm Springs luxury vacation rental estate boasts both luxury and historical and architectural significance.

SOUTH HADLEY – Two companies are seeking the town's permission to grow medical marijuana indoors at the former James River Graphics location at 26-28 Gaylord St. in South Hadley Falls.
They will submit their proposals on Monday at public hearings before the South Hadley Planning Board.
Plans submitted by Patriot Care Corp., with a business address of 139 Stow Road, Harvard, show they would employ "20 to 30 people full time." and would cultivate just over an acre of marijuana, at 45,247 square feet.
Their submittal to the Planning Board includes discussion about the positive uses of marijuana and describes a potpourri of ingestion forms: by smoking; using a vaporizer; and by eating "baked goods and the like are prepared with butter or oil that have been infused with medical marijuana."
Robert Mayerson is listed as the chief executive officer of Patriot Care. Their hearing starts at 6:45 p.m. at Town Hall.
Baystate Compassion Center, which has also submitted a proposal with the city of Springfield, says it plans to hire "6 employees which may increase to as many as 14 employees as the business progresses in coming years" at the Gaylord St. location.
Its South Hadley proposal includes a 31,342-square-foot cultivation area and would be open 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Michael Schneider, 1414 Main St., Suite 1900, Springfield, is listed as the project applicant. The hearing is scheduled to start at 7:30 p.m.
Records on file with the South Hadley Assessors office show the building at 28 Gaylord St. has an assessed valuation of $4,054,400 this year and is owned by US Industrial Gaylord L.P.
It also owns 26 Gaylord St., and that property is assessed at $80,500.
Both of the proposals detail elaborate security plans.
Town Meeting last year approved bylaws regulating industrial medical marijuana facilities. The rules require strict security regimens.
Massachusetts voters approved a ballot question in 2012 that legalized marijuana use for illnesses that include cancer, glaucoma, and Parkinson's disease, under a doctor's supervision.

When closed is better than open
The iPhone and Android are fighting for smartphone leadership with many similar strategies: touch screens, a good browser, an app store with thousands of apps.
Overall, however, Android is seen as more open. This is normally assumed to be a good thing, but two recent incidents suggest such openness has some disadvantages.
One of the long-remarked differences is that that Apple is selective (some say arbitrary) about which apps it allows in the Apps Store, whereas Google is pretty laissez-faire about what it allows in Android Market. But — as in many things involved complex technical or business systems — it's not that simple.
Finally Google realized that some people were abusing its app store and decided to throw some out. AppBrain reported Monday that one app developer alone had 4,000 apps deleted from Android Market. On Wednesday, AndroidGuys reported that one of impacted developers vowed to be back, using multiple fake logon accounts. (H/T: Phandroid).
Why would one firm publish 4,000 apps? Reportedly the developer said:
We didn't want to have to do that. But the Android Market doesn't have many people who like to pay for apps. So how is a developer to live? Just off of ad revenue?This is interesting on so many levels. Ad-supported free software works great for Google and is the norm on the Internet, but (if this claim can be believed) isn't working so well for app developers.
As in desktop and server Linux, apparently Android users expect free beer. Excessive openness by Android — like free access to open SMTP relays — makes it possible for "spammers" to both gain access and work around limitations in a way that a physical market would not allow.
In telling the smartphone app story, we think about positive externalities: more apps brings more users brings more apps. We don't think about negative externalities (like traffic jams or overcrowding): more users brings more abusive app vendors brings lower average app quality.
Finally, this problem raises the question of what the count of Google apps means if so many of them are bogus. If a real live human being is screening each app, then both the count and the quality are meaningful.
I figure Google will solve this eventually, probably with an algorithm. The algorithm will count the number of apps, the rate of app submission, the similarity of apps, perhaps their complexity. Just like the credit card companies, this will trigger an exception report that has to be monitored by a real live human being.
The one that seems more troubling — and harder to fix — is the openness to customization by manufacturers that preload craplets on the phone. Wired lists examples of Samsung (with a T-Mobile phone) and HTC (with the Sprint Evo). The HTC rep was blunt:
"It's different from phone to phone and operator to operator," says Keith Nowak, spokesman for HTC. "But in general, the apps are put there to meet the operator's business and revenue needs."What's particularly annoying to users is that this bloatware cannot be removed by users. To me, this is inconceivable: I can delete apps from my Mac and every Palm OS phone I've ever owned.
Alas, this is inherent in the Android business model. The iPhone put Apple in the driver's seat with carriers, but it was a temporary aberration. The whole point of Android was to commoditize smartphone software, and with it reduce barriers to entry (and thus prices) for smartphones. Commodity phones are the dream of Vodafone and the rest of the world's carriers, restoring (in their minds) them back to their rightful dominance in dictating to vendors and users alike.
Big bad Apple controls what apps are allowed in its app store. Big bad Apple tells operators what apps it will provide pre-installed. So the iPhone is less open, but (at least as long as Steve Jobs is there) that proprietary control is used to provide a better user experience.

TOPEKA — More than a year after Gov. Sam Brownback started abolishing the Kansas Arts Commission, the state Senate today gave its final approval to a bill that will do that.
Senate Substitute for House Bill 2454 will create a new Creative Arts Industries Commission under the control of the Department of Commerce.
The new commission would take over all the duties of the Arts Commission and the Kansas Film Services Commission, both of which will be abolished.
The new agency will be governed by an 11-member commission, made up of:
– Five members appointed by the governor.
– Four members appointed by the speaker of the House and the president of the Senate.
– Two members appointed by the minority leaders in the House and Senate.
One of Brownback's first acts as governor upon taking office last year was to issue an executive order abolishing the Arts Commission, which he wanted to replace with a privately funded arts council.
The Senate invoked its authority to block the governor's decision, which technically kept the Arts Commission alive. But Brownback laid off the staff of the agency and took away its $700,000 a year in funding.
Last year, Kansas lost an estimated $1.2 million in federal arts funding because of the lack of a state-supported arts agency.
Sen. Terrie Huntington, R-Fairway, carried the bill on the floor today. She said the new arts and film agency is modeled on Colorado's Creative Industries Division.
She said in budget talks, the House and Senate have basically agreed on $700,000 to go to the new commission. If the governor doesn't veto it, that "would go a long way" toward restoring Kansas' ability to get federal funds, Huntington said.
"It would give the NEA (National Endowment for the Arts) an indication that Kansas has the administration to administer grants," Huntington said.
The focus of the new commission will be more on economic development and creating jobs in the arts, said Huntington, a former member of the film board.
The bill, already agreed to by a House-Senate conference committee, passed the Senate 38-1.
It will now proceed to the House, which is expected to approve it, and then to the governor.

At Notre Dame, the focus is on excellence in teaching, learning, service and scholarship.
A challenging academic program prepares students for the rigors of the field, concentrating on the human elements of patient care, along with the science, technology and practical elements of pharmacy management. Dynamic coursework coupled with community outreach projects result in professionals well-prepared to care for individual patients and to help insure the health of the public.
Students will directly apply lessons from class into professional environments. Notre Dame of Maryland University has well-established partnerships with businesses and organizations throughout the area, providing exceptional opportunities for community outreach in the School of Pharmacy.
Many classroom and facilities on campus have been renovated or constructed especially for the School of Pharmacy, including the newly completed 25,000 square foot G. Avery Bunting Hall, which brings the total campus space to 40,000 square feet in support of the School. Technology rich classrooms, laboratories and office space support the work of students, faculty and staff.

As most of you I'm sure realize, today marks the 50th anniversary of the assassination of John F. Kennedy.
I know some of you are old enough to remember, and it's long been an axiom that everyone recalls where they were when they got the news that terrible day. I wondered if some of you might want to share your experience and your thoughts in the comment section below. I'd be so interested to see it, and I know many of our readers would too.
Thanks, and God Bless President Kennedy.

Equestrian Style at Home
That noted, it IS a trend that has gotten a bit of a foothold in the home decor market once again (it comes and goes through the years, as trends tend to do) so we thought we'd take another look at it today.
We think most of these current "horsey" pieces are subtle enough to be more about the history of decor than anything else. Do you think they would they be an interesting note in an eclectic room or are they still "theme-y"?

SOURCE: GelTech Solutions, Inc.
August 05, 2014 07:30 ET
JUPITER, FL--(Marketwired - Aug 5, 2014) - GelTech Solutions, Inc. (OTCBB: GLTC) (OTCQB: GLTC) announced today that FireIce was successfully deployed by firefighting aircraft contracted by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources Division of Forestry, and was able to aid in containing one of the first wildfires of the season. Minnesota Department of Natural Resources has purchased and is using FireIce in a season-long pilot program to evaluate the product in aerial firefighting and fire engine applications.
In its first wildfire deployment this season, FireIce earned the praise of pilots and wildland firefighters on the ground as being effective and easy to use. FireIce is non-toxic and its environmental impact is negligible compared to other fire chemicals used in wildland firefighting, particularly in sensitive ecosystems. FireIce is also non-corrosive and weighs significantly less than other commonly used chemicals, enhancing the safety of pilots and their aircraft.
"We are pleased to be working with Minnesota DNR during this fire season, and our team was ready to help support the agency leading up to and during the first fire," stated Matt Struzziero, GelTech's Director of Sales and Strategic Operations. "Agency feedback has been very positive and other agencies across the country have taken notice. We understand the challenges that agencies face in working with new products and vendors in wildland firefighting, and the entire GelTech organization is dedicated to ensuring that our customers receive first class support every step of the way."
This latest success comes at a time when the FireIce Wildland Division continues to gain momentum in 2014, which is already the most successful year for wildland firefighting in company history. Multiple state and federal agencies across the U.S. and Canada are evaluating FireIce as an environmentally friendly and cost-effective alternative to existing fire chemicals used in wildland firefighting. Additional pilot programs and evaluations will be coming online over the summer.
Minnesota Department of Natural Resources is responsible for forest fire protection on all state and private forest. Minnesota is also a member of the Great Lakes Forest Fire Compact, and provides mutual assistance and resource sharing to member agencies including: Michigan; Wisconsin; Ontario; and Manitoba. The compact also works with Federal agencies when appropriate, including: US Forest Service; US National Park Service; and US Fish & Wildlife Service.

①The David Haye camp has stated that Haye does want to fight Wladimir, but they cannot accept certain "financial details." ②What are those details? ③"The offer was 50%/50%, no options," Wladimir Klitschko advisor Shelly Finkel confirmed to Fightnews.com. ④Finkel added that he hasn't heard from David Haye's manager Adam Booth in three weeks after initially speaking to him half-a-dozen times.
①It seems the main hang-up was that the Haye camp wanted to keep 100% of the UK TV revenue and give Wladimir 100% of the German TV revenue. ②The Klitschko Camp wanted to put all the TV money in one pot and split it 50/50%, which they consider more than fair since Wladimir would be risking three belts to Haye's one, and Wlad is widely considered to be the world's true heavyweight champion.
①Wladimir will now defend his belts against Alexander Povetkin on September 11 in Frankfurt, Germany, while Haye is expected to face Audley Harrison in an all-British affair in November.

To get it right, providers need to get off track
James M. Berklan, Editor
That's what struck me after reading a news item we posted at mcknights.com Monday: "Established nursing home business practices will soon change, expert warns."
The item was deftly reported from a regional seniors housing conference in Florida that same morning by McKnight's Executive Editor John O'Connor. He covered a talk given by one of the brightest young minds analyzing senior care today, Dan Mendelson, Avalere Health's CEO.
The core message: Things are changing, and things will continue to change for long-term care operators. Sounds simple, doesn't it? Yet many professionals forget that if you don't stop to sit and gaze at the river flowing by you every now and then, you could just keep walking along side it and never realize what forces are at work.
For long-term care providers, it means they are going to have to more actively pursue relationships beyond their walls. If they want a steady flow of clients, that is. It will be "stay at the office and wait for the telephone to ring at your own peril." As well it should be.
According to Mendelson, it also means that operators can't be complacent. New efficiencies must always be sought, if only to contend with constricting government reimbursement. And, as always, it seems, more emphasis should be put on hiring and retaining good staff members. When the pressure builds, you need to have confidence in those who are working around you.
Looking at the headline again, I don't know if it really should be a "warning" that business practices will change. That sounds ominous or wrong, or unexpected. I guess it depends on whether or not you're ready for change. Of course, everyone should be ready, at virtually all times. "Established," after all, is just code for "ready to be upgraded."
Will Rogers is responsible for the old saying I refer to in the opening line above. It's as valid today as it was more than 75 years ago when he first uttered it. Each of us would be wise to keep it in mind: "Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there."

Health and Longevity is a concern of all. We not only want to live a long life, we want to live a healthy one.
One major reason why people get annual Astrology readings is to check for potential health problems for the
upcoming year. Jyotish is extremely accurate in predicting the onset of illness and making recommendations to help
lessen or subvert the illness entirely.
Our physical body is an expression of our mind and spirit. When we make better choices in our mind we have a
healthier body. When our Spirit is light and content our mind is better able to make better choices. The Birth
Chart is a representation of the Spiritual, Mental and Physical bodies. Difficult houses in the Chart or the
problem planets that rule them show where and what type of illness will manifest in the body.
Looking for WeaknessMedical Astrology is very tricky. First the inherent strength of the planets must be
measured through all of the ShadVargas. (Vimshopaka) Planets with a low Vimshopaka score are especially problematic
and show a weakness in that dhatu. (Ayurvedic building block) Then debilitated planets or ones in dusthana houses
or under malefic aspect are found. This will show which element is weak. It is the weakest Planet(s) that
will be the culprit of disease. Their Sign / House and the dasa periods will signal the onset of that illness in
that location.
Varga Charts
Vedic Astrology uses many Harmonic charts (called Vargas) to fine tune all areas of life. The main chart used in
medical Astrology is the Rasi or Birth chart as it shows the body and overall constitution. But also of major
importance is the Trimsamsha (d-30) chart as it shows the overall susceptibility to illness and general physical
strength. The Drekkana (d-3) is also important as it shows the vital energy and ability to fight disease. And also
the Dwadasamsha (d-12) will show the inherited genetic factors that contribute to our overall health. A confluence
of factors in these charts will show what and where serious illness may occur and how to prevent it.
Preventative Strategies
In Medical Astrology there are 5 elements just as in Ayurveda and each planet rules one of the 7 dhatus.
To prevent disease weak planets are helped using Ayurvedic principles which balance the 3 doshas, the 3
properties of our imbalanced nature. Through diet, mantra, aromatherapy, etc we can heal ourselves before we become
ill. Once ill or sick, recovery is greatly enhanced using these remedies.
Earth - Mercury, spleen, stomach
Air - Saturn, large intestine
Water - Venus, kidney, urinary
Ether - Jupiter, liver, gall bladder
Fire - Mars, heart, small intestine
Sun - bone - minerals - mineral absorption
Moon - blood - water - overall body tissue
Mars - marrow - electrolyte (dissolved minerals) energy
Mercury - skin - surrounding tissue - cell walls
Jupiter - fat reserve
Saturn - nerves - channel of the life force
Venus - semen - hormones - endocrine system

Arthritis: Can your diet really help?
Dr. Sheena Hunt
There is much conflicting information on the internet about whether your diet can help reduce joint pain and inflammation. This search for healing foods may be inspired when patients and their families become concerned about side effects of long-term use of pharmaceuticals to manage inflammation and joint pain. Arthritis patients may be willing to try a new, even radical, diet or avoid certain foods in order to help ease their pain. Yet many of the diets recommended have not been tried or tested scientifically. Is there a correlation between your diet and the health and mobility of your joints?
The Mediterranean diet has been the subject of much research in recent years. As early as 1970, the Seven Countries Study reported the benefits to cardiovascular health of a Mediterranean type diet. There is not a strict, single Mediterranean diet that outlines food choices or meal plans, rather, the diet includes different food cultures from the Mediterranean region, with some common dietary characteristics. The Mediterranean diet generally consists of fresh, unprocessed foods and foods that are very low in saturated fat and sugar. The basic guidelines are large quantities of vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds, legumes, potatoes, whole grains, breads, herbs, spices, fish, seafood and extra virgin olive oil. Poultry, eggs, cheese and yogurt should be eaten in in moderation, and only small amounts of red meat. The diet recommends avoiding, as much as possible, sugar-sweetened beverages, added sugars, processed meat, refined grains, refined oils and other highly processed foods. Herbs and spices should be used more frequently than salt. Plus, there is no need to feel guilty about the occasional glass of wine! The diet includes all food groups and so is considered nutritionally adequate and complete.
An early study conducted in Greece and published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology in 2004 found that adherence to a traditional Mediterranean diet was associated with reduced inflammation and improved markers of coagulation (indicating that it also has beneficial effects on the heart). Another study published in the Annals of Rheumatic Diseases in 2007 reported successful results from research conducted in and area of social deprivation in Glasgow, Scotland. The study found that among women between 30 and 70 years old who had rheumatoid arthritis, a diet rich in fish, fruit and vegetables, and low in saturated fat resulted in significantly reduced pain and stiffness over a 6-month period. Even in an area of social deprivation, the study reported that changing to a Mediterranean diet was achievable and well received in these patients. Most patients felt that the recipes were easy to make and affordable.
Extra virgin olive oil is an important component of the Mediterranean style diet; in which it is simply part of every day meal preparation. One phenolic compound in olive oil, oleocanthhal, has been reported to have properties capable of reducing inflammatory-related disease, including joint-degenerative disease. In Mediterranean cuisine, olive oil is used instead of butter and other saturated fats.
A recent review published in Swiss Medical Weekly in 2015 reported that the Mediterranean style diet is associated with a number of joint health benefits for patients who have rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, or gout. This type of diet also is known to contribute to the maintenance of healthy, balanced gut microbiota (good bacteria). There is increasing evidence that maintenance of healthy gut bacteria is essential in inflammatory conditions including lupus, gout and arthritis.
According to the Arthritis Foundation, not only can the Mediterranean diet benefit your joints and curb inflammation, but it can also lower blood pressure, protect against many chronic conditions ranging from cancer to stroke, benefit your heart, and lead to weight loss, which in turn is of great benefit in managing joint pain. The manufacturers of the scientifically-proven joint support product, Arthrem®, believe that diet is just one of the ways to improve long-term joint health. They have come up with a range of simple, delicious, healthy, joint-friendly meals such as this salmon recipe.
A common question that people ask is whether or not there are certain foods to avoid when combatting inflammation. In general, healthcare professionals and registered dieticians don't recommend that people should adopt extreme eating plans or cut out entire food groups (unless it is in response to a specific allergy). There seems to be very little evidence to avoid the nightshade family of vegetables (eggplant, tomatoes, red bell peppers and potatoes). In fact, these foods are extremely good for you. In spite of the lack of scientific evidence, however, some people are convinced that avoiding nightshade vegetables can provide symptom relief. If you have had a pain flare up after eating nightshade vegetables, try eliminating them for a couple of weeks and then reintroduce then, one at a time, slowly, to see if there is a difference in your pain. When someone has a flare up it can be caused by many factors other than diet.
Whether it is called the Mediterranean diet or an anti-inflammatory diet, as with so many things, moderation is important to joint health. A healthy, balanced diet rich in vegetables, whole grains and unsaturated fats plus regular exercise is the lifestyle choice most likely to keep your joints mobile and healthy.
