New York did pretty well in Hurricane Irene — but with one big sign of trouble for some future disaster that doesn't peter out.
The best news is that MTA management and workers performed admirably. For the first time ever, the authority shut down the system in a well-ordered, predictable fashion.
The MTA learned from the Christmas blizzard: It's better to leave people stranded at home than stranded wherever they were going, or on the way. So New Yorkers didn't show up at stations late Saturday and early Sunday to be surprised that flooding had stopped trains, with no explanation. The decision also helped safeguard expensive trains and buses, which were kept away from the floods.
The shutdown also helped keep folks inside before and during the storm: People who had no way to get anywhere had little choice but to stay put. And the MTA's decision was a public reminder to get food and water before the storm came — as the city was quite visibly and gradually shutting down.
Yesterday, too, the MTA was more or less clear about what was working and what wasn't — nobody who was paying attention showed up to Metro-North stations.
Mayor Bloomberg also performed well — asserting control, communicating concisely to the public, evacuating sick and infirm residents from hospitals and nursing homes and dishing out dire warnings ("they could die") for able-bodied, able-minded people who didn't heed evacuation orders. Shelters were well-marked and well-stocked, with the people who spent the night there satisfied.
Monday-morning quarterbacks looking to criticize the mayor can only come up with "he over-prepared" — which is a good thing.
But Irene also showed that the city has a serious compliance problem in evacuating. Dismal percentages of people in low-lying areas such as Battery Park City and the Rockaways heeded the mayor's order, with no good excuses proferred.
As The Post noted yesterday, "most of the 370,000 residents of flood-prone New York City neighborhoods defied mandatory evacuation orders, deriding Hurricane Irene's ballyhooed blow."
Guess what? If data bear out early reports, we had a worse evacuation record than New Orleans did before Katrina (which happened six years ago yesterday). About 80 percent of New Orleanians left then — including hundreds of thousands who'd left for previous storms, only to watch from distant hotel rooms as nothing much happened to their city.
That's a real problem for New York.
Imagine if the storm had brought days-long Lower Manhattan power outages and high-rise window blowouts that shattered glass through the air and on the ground (as Katrina did).
People would have inevitably started fires with candles. They'd have injured themselves with flying glass or trying to "rescue" themselves after it was too late, running out in flooded streets to seek shelter. Police, fire and federal resources would have gone just where they did in Katrina — rescuing people who should have left, rather than safeguarding an empty city and starting recovery.
Now, some of the New Yorkers who did evacuate feel like chumps. Are we even less likely to evacuate, next time around?
The mayor's office should interview the people who didn't leave — to figure out why. Was it cost? Worry over pets or property? Just complacency?
Perfectly healthy New Yorkers with at least some financial resources didn't see much if any ill consequences, either natural or man-made, in staying.
Sorry: No one who defied evacuation should feel proud. They put other people in danger, just as those who stayed behind did in Katrina.
They, and we, were lucky — this time.

How to get SEO benefit from your campaign archives
A while back we introduced an RSS button on the Campaign Archive Toolbar.
It might seem kind of weird at first to include an entire email campaign in an RSS feed, but it's actually pretty useful. I'll explain why in just a moment.
First, for those of you who aren't familiar with Campaign Archives, every campaign you send in MailChimp gets a hosted archive version. There's a default page, which you can see by clicking the View Past Issues button on the Campaign Archive Toolbar, or you can create a custom archives page, like ours at campaigns.mailchimp.com. Either way, your content is still hosted on MailChimp's servers, which means your website doesn't get the SEO benefit.
Now, let's say you wanted to create a custom campaign archives page and take advantage of all that SEO-friendly content. The only way search engines can index your content in a way that gives you the credit is for you to host the content on your server. And take a look at one of our newer blog posts, if you're still asking the question, "What is SEO?"
There are two ways to access your archive campaign content in order to host it yourself.
We'll start with the simplest method first. This is where the RSS button comes in handy—it makes all of your content available at the click of a button.
- Make sure the Campaign Archives Toolbar is enabled for the list you want to work with.
- Open one of your sent campaigns. Go to Campaigns, select Campaigns By List from the sidebar, choose the list you want to work with, click the title of a campaign with a status of Sent, then click Campaign Archive. This will open a new window with the email campaign. You'll see the Campaign Archive Toolbar at the top of the page.
- Click the RSS button. You'll see a feed with every campaign you have sent to the list.
If you're a programmer, you can use the RSS feed as the input to dynamically display your archive campaign content. Otherwise, you'll need to manually copy the content from the doctype to the closing html tag, and save it as an HTML file on your server. Remember, the RSS file contains HTML for every campaign you've sent to your list, interspersed with XML, so you'll need to locate and copy the content starting with
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> and ending with
</html> for each campaign.
The other way to access your archive campaign content bypasses the RSS button entirely, dynamically grabbing archive campaign content using our API and posting it to your website.
This method is really only for programmers, so if that's not your area of expertise, you may want to call a professional.
To get archive content through our API, use the campaignContent() with the for_archive tag set to true. You can retrieve archive campaigns and get the campaign_id required for the campaignContent() call using campaigns() with the status=sent filter.
Now that you've learned how to access your archive campaign content, it's time to reap the benefit. After all, you have all that SEO-rich content sitting around. Why not put it to work for you?

How to Choose Crampons
| I'm pretty sure that if, in the next Transformers movie, the transformers inhabited crampons it would be terrifying. Tiny, super sharp shoe shaped evil robots would definitely give me some worries. That being said, selecting the right crampons can be quite the task even if they aren't robot creatures. Here are some things that my boss told me to tell you about choosing crampons.
Basically, you can find a crampon that's specialized for just about any winter activity that involves walking. To my knowledge there are no sledding crampons, and really that sounds pretty dangerous, so I don't recommend it. Check out super-lightweight crampons made to give you extra traction on winter walks or runs and traversing icy stairs. For snow and glacier travel, technical hiking, and winter or summer mountaineering you'll want to go with a more traditional crampon model. Highly technical crampons are available for ice climbers and mixed climbers.
Sweet Crampon Brands: Petzl Crampons | Grivel Crampons | Camp USA Crampons | Black Diamond Crampons
Materials & ConstructionCrampon frames can be steel, stainless steel, or aluminum. You'll want to choose the crampon construction material that's best for your activity.
|Construction is also something you should take into consideration. I'm not going to lie and pretend like it's really complicated: the majority of crampons available feature a semi-rigid design. Basically, this type of crampon gives you decent performance in a broad range of conditions. With the semi-rigid design you get a crampon that's flexible enough for trekking, but rigid enough for moderate ice climbing.
Some crampon models allow you to adjust the linking bar (the bar between the toe and heel piece) from a semi-rigid to a flexible mode. The flexible mode makes the crampon more comfortable for hiking and makes the crampon less likely to build up snow. Semi-rigid crampons are also more adjustable and easier to adjust, plus they fit better over a wider variety of boots. An asymmetrical center bar is available for most semi-rigid crampons. This bar allows the crampon to fit better over curvier boot designs.
Crampon Binding TypesBasically, there are three binding types that attach crampons to your boots. More about that:
Crampon Points & FrontpointsFor the best performance possible, the points of your crampons need to be under the instep and follow the shape of your boots. Most of the time crampons have 10 or 12 points. Those are, coincidentally, my two favorite numbers. That's probably why they wanted me to write this. Anyway, don't forget that you can adjust most crampons to get the right point extension. I recommend you do that.
Basically, the more technical your adventure, the more points you'll want on your crampons. You'll also want to choose more rigid crampons for more technical pursuits. There are even specific styles for waterfall climbing.
I know I talk a lot, but when it comes down to it, the crampon thing is pretty simple. Basically, for general mountaineering you'll want a crampon with less frontpoint, and for technical climbing, you'll want more frontpoint.
Frontpoints, if you haven't guessed, are the forward facing points on a crampon that have horizontal frontpoints. These dual points are good for almost any alpine climbing or ice/snow climbing. There are also crampons with dual vertical frontpoints. They're the best for steep waterfall and mixed climbs. Vertical frontpoints slip easily into cracks, and you can easily adjust and replace them. Some technical-ice crampons will feature secondary frontpoints for added support and traction. Monopoint crampons have a single frontpoint. Hence the whole "mono" thing, which I think is Latin. Single points are popular for technical waterfall and mixed climbing.
Frontpoints are either modular or non-modular. That's fixed or non-fixed for the laypersons. I don't know what makes someone a layperson, and anything I could think of isn't appropriate, so I'll just talk more about frontpoints.


text: 12 Easy, Anytime Moves to Strengthen Your Feet and Ankles by JESSICA SMITH Sept. 10, 2013 Jessica Smith As a certified wellcoach, author, fitness lifestyle expert and the star of numerous exercise DVDs, Jessica Smith is constantly writing and producing video content about the latest news and expert information on health, fitness and wellness. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in communications. Slide 1 of 14 Photo Credit: Hero Images/Getty Images You may not give your feet a lot of thought, but you use them in almost every fitness routine you do! Whether you're a runner, a cyclist, a yogi, a CrossFitter or a Zumba dancer, strengthening and stretching the muscles in your ankles and feet can help improve your balance, performance and comfort. That's why we asked Katy Bowman, MS, biomechanist and director of the Restorative Exercise Institute to create a foot care routine that you can easily do at home. Bowman recommends doing this 15-minute routine barefoot every day (or as often as possible) for best results. Do all the movements in a row, or do them separately (in any order) throughout the day whenever you can squeeze them in. Simply kick off your shoes, and grab a towel, a tennis ball and a few throw pillows. Photo Credit: Vanessa Rogers Photography 1 Single-Leg Balance This single leg balance allows the upper thigh muscles that assist with ankle stabilization to participate, explains Bowman. HOW TO DO IT: On a flat surface, stand on the left leg with knee straight (but not hyper extended) and bend the left knee to lift the right foot slightly off the floor, balancing for up to one minute before switching legs. To make more challenging, Bowman recommends keeping your arms down by your sides letting the lateral hips do the work and placing your foot straight -- not slightly turned out, which reduces lateral hip use [shown]. Repeat up to three times on each leg for strength work. Photo Credit: Vanessa Rogers Photography 2 Single-Leg Towel Balance Though it seems similar to the previous exercise, the towel adds a unique surface (similar to the varying terrain we walk on) that will deepen the work in the foot, ankle, and thigh muscles. "Ankle sprains often happen "on the field" when you are walking or running in one direction while looking in another. Developing the strength and skill to stabilize your body without visual support can come in handy when you head to your workout," explains Bowman. HOW TO DO IT: Fold a towel over several times and repeat the single-leg balance while standing on top of the towel, balancing for up to one minute before switching legs. To make this more challenging, turn your head from side to side to mix up your visual field. Photo Credit: Vanessa Rogers Photography 3 Active Toe Spreading A lifetime of footwear can weaken the intrinsic muscles of your feet. According to Bowman, this exercise helps to restore foot strength. HOW TO DO IT: Stand with feet about hip width apart and spread toes as wide as possible, keeping them flat on the ground as you create space between each toe (much harder than it sounds!). Repeat as often as you like, with or without shoes, throughout the day. In fact, Bowman says doing this exercise while in footwear is a great way to determine if the toe box of your shoe is wide enough for your feet. Photo Credit: Vanessa Rogers Photography 4 Great Toe Lift The muscle group that lifts your big toes (the extensor hallucis group) is one of the strongest muscles in the foot, Bowman explains, and restoring strength to the group can assist in restoring strength and motor control of the foot and stability of the ankle. HOW TO DO IT: Stand (or sit) with feet about hip width apart. Keeping all the other toes on the ground, lift just your big toes off the floor, then lower. Repeat 1-3 times. To make it more challenging, Bowman recommends trying to eliminate sideways motion of the big toe as it lifts -- which is no easy feat. "[The big toe] should lift up, not lift up and go sideways," she explains. Photo Credit: Vanessa Rogers Photography 5 Walk on The Pillow Train Walking on this type of uneven "terrain" helps expose the muscles of the feet and ankles to unique angles and workloads, Bowman says. HOW TO DO IT: Create a short "train" of various sized pillows and cushions on the floor. (If you have kids, they'll love this exercise.) Walk a few laps back and forth on top of the pillows. If you don't want your pillows to touch your floor, you might try placing them on top of a mat or a towel. Photo Credit: Vanessa Rogers Photography 6 Wheelies "This simulation loads the ankle in constantly varying ways," says Bowman, "many of which are found in movement programs or athletics." Since most of the time we walk on flat ground, as opposed to continuously different surfaces, we are weak when new angles present themselves. Wheelies help to recreate those angles in a controlled environment, and they can aid in creating a more stable ankle in any environment," she explains. HOW TO DO IT: Stand with feet hip width apart and arms by your sides. Push the pelvis out to the right, leaning into the right hip and begin walking quickly in a full circle from right to left, leaning into the right hip the entire time. Walk in a circle 2-3 times in a row and then repeat on the opposite side. Photo Credit: Vanessa Rogers Photography 7 Calf Stretch - Gastroc "This stretch targets the larger of the main calf muscles, the gastrocnemius muscle, which can become tight due to the excessive frequency of knee flexion found in chronic sitting," says Bowman. "The better range of motion in this muscle, the more 'oomph' you can get from your lower body without the 'ouch' in the knees." HOW TO DO IT: Roll up a towel and stand with the right foot on top of towel, with heel pressed into the floor, leg straight. Step forward with the opposite leg to increase the stretch. Hold for 30-60 seconds, and then repeat with the other leg. Do this as a circuit 3 times. Photo Credit: Vanessa Rogers Photography 8 Calf Stretch - Soleus "This stretch targets the fibers of the soleus (the lower muscle on the calf) and the Achilles' tendon, both which shorten over time due to heeled footwear, certain gait/running patterns, and during some strength building movements such as calf raises," says Bowman. HOW TO DO IT: With towel still rolled, stand with right foot on top of towel, with heel pressed into the floor, and bend right knee without lifting heel. Hold for 30-60 seconds and then repeat on the left. Do this as a circuit 3 times. Photo Credit: Vanessa Rogers Photography 9 Passive Toe Spreading Toe abduction (separation) mobilizes the bones, muscles, and connective tissues for better intrinsic foot muscle strength, circulation and nerve health, explains Bowman. HOW TO DO IT: Sitting on a chair, cross an ankle over the opposite knee. Using your hands, gently spread toes apart, stretching the toes away from each other. If your feet are tight and cramp up on you, start with a little spreading for a shorter period of time, about 15 seconds. Over time, hold for longer (up to a minute or so). Photo Credit: Vanessa Rogers Photography 10 Top of The Foot Stretch Bowman says this exercise helps to target the "grippers" -- those foot and toe muscles that over-clench due to excessive flip-flop or "slip-on" shoe use. HOW TO DO IT: Stand on right leg, with your arms by sides, and reach your left leg behind you. Curl left toes under and gently press ankle to the floor until you feel a stretch along the top of your foot. Hold this for up to a minute. Cramping on this one is normal, so start with shorter holds and progress to longer. Try a few times on each foot. Photo Credit: Vanessa Rogers Photography 11 Standing Foot Massage "There are 33 joints in the foot that would normally be mobilized by walking over small pebbles, sticks and varying terrain," explains Bowman. "Because our feet are only exposed to a flat sole and flat ground, these joints become immobile and the muscles that connect them are extremely stiff and atrophied. Working the foot over the ball introduces a range of motion to these joints." HOW TO DO IT: Start standing with a tennis ball (or similar sized ball) under arch of one foot. Slowly load your weight onto the ball, moving the foot forward and back to apply pressure to individual joints within the foot. Work the sole of foot with the ball, applying more or less pressure as needed. Do this for up to 3 minutes per foot. Photo Credit: Vanessa Rogers Photography 12 Forward Bend "The affects of wearing high-heeled footwear and certain gait patterns can shorten the muscles and connective tissues running from the soles of the feet to the top of the head," says Bowman. "Stretching against the wall stabilizes the ankle to create a tensile load down the entire 'back line' of the body to help restore joint mobility." HOW TO DO IT: Sit on the floor with feet pressed flat against a wall. If your hamstrings are really tight, Bowman suggests sitting on a pillow. Fold body forward, tipping the pelvis towards the wall as you lean into legs, reaching with your arms toward your feet. Hold for up to 60 seconds.

Abian & Corrales chase home success
Europe V Asia in Madrid
Published by
Mark Phelan
After four consecutive weeks at future series level the circuit kicks up a notch this week with the International challenge rated Spanish Open. With a large travelling contingent from Japan and Taipei the tournament represents a Europe V Asia battle with the home Spanish players hunting success in both singles events.
Pablo Abian enters his home tournament as top seed and world number 34. The 32 year old is without a win in 2017 with his last success coming in Cardiff in November where he won the Welsh International. The Spanish number 1 will get an early indication of his form as he takes on Japanese youngster Koki Watanabe in the opening round. The Japanese player is just 18 years old but has European experience after playing in the circuit this season in Italy, Austria and Finland.
Mark Caljouw has been one of the form players this season and he maybe one to watch in the top have of the draw. Denmark's Rasmus Gemke comes into the tournament unseeded but carries a new found confidence and maturity with him to Spain after his victory in Finland in April. The Danes qualities have bubbled to a new level this season and he will certainly be pushing on to greater things in the years to come.
Beatriz Corrales comes into the tournament as world number 21 but like compatriot Abian has had a quiet 2017. Also like Abian the Madrid based Spaniard last tasted success in Wales at the tail end of 2016 and will also like to go one better than her runners up spot on home soil last year.
Mette Poulsen is seeded two and starts life outside of the Danish national team with this trip to Madrid. With Dahl, Jakobsen, Andersen and Blichfeldt all in tow it's clear that Denmark will have a bearing on the destination of the women's singles title this week.
The whole European cast will need to keep an eye on Shiori Saito. The tall and powerful Japanese is used to winning in Europe after her success in Finland a few short months ago. She is the major unseeded threat for this women's singles competition.
Olympic medallists making trip to Spain
England's Marcus Ellis & Chris Langridge (pictured above) would have been expected to be in Indonesia this week mixing it with the big boys, of which they are justified members after their Olympic exploits. Instead the English and world number 16 pair will make a step back to International Challenge level as part of their preparation for the world championships in August.
The English will be odds on for the title however with 4 Japanese pairs as well as some top Euro talent on show the English will have to work for the win. Germans Zurwonne & Jansens have had an excellent 12 months with three circuit wins which has propelled them to 25 in the world while Dutch pair Jille & Arends have proved a handful this past year on the circuit.
In the women's doubles Julie Finne-Ipsen and Rikke Soby will look to celebrate their worlds qualification with a circuit win. The Danes have been ultra consistent this past year with a bag full of semi final and final appearances. A challenge win has eluded them after coming close in Belgium and Ireland and this may be their week.
Lauren Smith and Sarah Walker will be in confident mood after their European bronze medal but it's the unseeded Dutch pair Muskens and Piek who catch the eye as they return from an extended period out of the game due to injury. The Dutch were as high as 7 in the world just over a year ago and that pedigree will be sure to shine through this week.
Finally, the mixed doubles represents a decent opportunity for a pair to come from the pack. Mikkelsen and Surrow have been the outstanding circuit pair this season and they come into this tournament unseeded. Sam and Chloe Magee return to the circuit after their run to the bronze medal at the Europeans in April while other unseeded pairs like Piek & Arends (NED) and Ellis & Smith (ENG) just jump off the page as potential winners.

There was no shortage of regulatory actions and initiatives coming out of FINRA in 2012. The most prominent ones are still etched in our minds: the new suitability standard, the crackdown on private placements and non-traded REITs, and the recent proposed rule on recruiting bonus disclosure. These probably bring back bad memories for some firms.
But in its annual year in review, FINRA pats itself on the back for the number of regulatory referrals to the SEC and other agencies. The report included the usual highlights of its own regulatory accomplishments, in-house, but why the emphasis on referrals? Is FINRA trying to say, 'We can do your job better than you can'?
We all know about the brutal fight between the SEC and FINRA to be the top watchdog on Wall Street, and these enforcement review reports are always the perfect opportunity for each agency to say, 'Here's how many firms and individuals we nailed this year.'
According to the report, FINRA's Office of Fraud Detection and Market Intelligence referred 692 instances of potentially fraudulent activity to the SEC and other agencies, including 347 insider trading referrals and 260 fraud referrals. The agency linked to a long list of referrals that led to criminal and/or civil actions.
To be fair, FINRA has some justification in my mind for stressing 2012's referrals. In 2012, its referrals resulted in about 45 criminal/civil actions, compared to only 23 in 2011. (Keep in mind, the list only includes those releases where FINRA was thanked by the SEC, and may not provide a complete picture of all actions that came out of its referrals.)
Is FINRA just tooting its own horn? Or is Chairman and CEO Rick Ketchum trying to show that he can do the SEC's job of regulating investment advisors? It's no secret, of course, that FINRA wants to be the self-regulatory organization (SRO) for RIAs. That regulation, however, is still up in the air.

The Many Ways Web Visitors Affect a Site
There are a few different important ways that getting more website visitors to your webpage can affect you. First off you need visitors to come to your website to get anything done. There might be a few different reasons that you are running a website but everything ends up revolving around getting more people to your website. Everyone is after something specifically; some websites are after money for example. They want to sell a product or a service and they need people to come to them and buy it from them. That is definitely the most basic form of a website because it revolves around mainly accomplishing two things. They want to sell their product, so they need to first get you to want it, then ultimately sell it to you. They will have a main page that contains all the info they believe is needed to get you to click that buy now button and make their day. Now we don't need to get into the different ways that this is accomplished, but at least understand that this is a very basic and common reason that people start up a website. The Internet is a vast place, there are millions and millions of people, and you are able to be in contact with someone from across the world that you would normally never see in your life. This is the reason why the Internet is such a great place for a business, you have no bounds, and nothing is holding you back from communicating with someone in China if you are from the U.S. or vice versa. This eventually makes it possible for business's that would normally fail due to lack of exposure to thrive in an online scene. Online websites are extremely fascinating but they always come back to our main point, getting out there, getting your customers, and finding them is almost always the hardest step.
So You Need the Visitors
So we have established that the visitors are the most important part of your website, there is no way that you can succeed without getting the visitors to your website. It can be funny that you have almost no clue who you are going to be working with until they, or you, make the first move and try to contact someone. You can try all you want to push out your own leads, try to find people that want to pay you for something, but in the end a successful website will accomplish that times ten without much effort. There is a definite relativity between how much work you put into a website in the first place and how much is needed over time for upkeep and generally updating it to stay with the times. This can be almost saddening at the time when you realize that you need to start working harder to beat out your competition but there can be some benefits to having harsh competition also. This gives you the ability to piggyback off of each other and there is the definite possibility that you will gain some customers just by being near your competition, eventually they will have an unhappy customer and you will get the chance to show yourself. This is one of the most crucial times to do well as this will directly affect how strong you are as a company or a business. I like to always think of website as having a motive behind being run, there is always something that the website owner has in mind, this can be as simple as wanting to make more money to being as complex as creating a movement or gaining power. Eventually everyone realizes that there are a ton of different meanings to a website and tons of different ways that people will use to put themselves ahead of their competition.
Sending the Views
Now that you have accepted there is a definite need for website visitors you should try to asses just how many you need. Websites sometimes need different amounts of web visitors to accomplish different tasks. If you are trying to sell a product then you very well may want as many visitors as possible but there is also the chance that you just want to sell your service which you are running by yourself and need to manage your time versus that amount of payment that is coming in. For a product that is repeatable and costs you less to sell at any amount then you want to sell as many as possible, under the same light you are just trying to make as much profit as possible which is definitely what most people try to do, and so for this example you do not fall into the category that would have to worry about over doing the targeted traffic, feel free to experiment to your website's needs. On the other hand we also have people that need to spend time doing the work that is requested and for this reason, there can actually be problems that go along with a sudden influx of sales and people should always expect to get large results from targeted traffic. There have been reports of people being overwhelmed of the new sales and in order to make sure that all of your visitors are happy with your service and for a sustainable outcome after creating more visitors for yourself, make sure to imagine and at least expect a change by increasing the traffic to your website, and also this is not to say that targeted traffic is negative in any sense, just that these factors should all be taken into account to make sure that you are going to get the best outcome out of your investment.

Calibrating the AFM with Self-Calibratable MEMS: An Theoretical Study
F. Li, J.V. Clark
Purdue University, US
Keywords: self-calibratable, MEMS, sensor, AFM, stiffness
Abstract:To perform reliable scientific measurements with the atomic force microscope (AFM), it is important to calibrate the AFM cantilever. Conventional calibration methods have a 10 to 15% uncertainty, and the accuracies of such methods are unknown. These conventional techniques include the added weight method, the thermal vibration method, the layout geometry method, and the factory specification method. In this paper, we present a study on the proposed use of novel self-calibratable MEMS to calibrate AFM cantilever force, stiffness, and deflection. Our method uses self-calibratable MEMS with repeatable accuracy and quantifiable uncertainty. Our MEMS can be more easily fabricated in a simple 3-mask SOI process.

Hardcore bowhunters looking for a challenging hunt will be pleased with a spring turkey hunt. Harvesting a longbeard with a bow can be difficult. In fact, the odds of tagging a tom with a bow in the spring woods is about the same as tagging an elk in the fall out West – a low 10%! In some states, the odds are a bit higher. Either way, it is safe to say wrapping a tag around the leg of a tom in the spring that was taken with a stick and string is difficult. Luckily for bowhunters, there are several methods and gear that can increase your odds this spring. Below are a few of my favorite tactics to use to outsmart wise old gobblers.
For starters, a longbeards' first line of defense is his eyesight and the eyesight of the ladies he hangs out with. The eyesight of a turkey is ten times better than the eyesight of a person. Most bowhunters who hunt turkeys get busted trying to draw their bow. To solve this problem, plan to hunt from some type of blind. The easiest option is to use a pop-up blind of some type. There are many good brands available. Pop-up blinds are lightweight for running and gunning with and can be put up in under a minute. Most pop-up blinds come with a black interior so when a turkey looks in the window, they won't be able to see you even if you are drawing.
If a pop-up ground blind is out of your price range, consider building a ground blind out of branches like an old-fashioned deer blind. This tactic works well if you are hunting near a roosting area where you know the travel pattern of the birds so you can set your blind up accordingly. The problem with a homemade ground blind is you can't move it.
Another option is using a Branch Fan by Carnivore Hunting Products(www.carnivorehuntingproducts.com). The Branch Fan is a simple metal device that you stick into the ground in front of you. It has branch clamps on it that you can stick several branches in which will break up your outline. The device is lightweight, can be taken anywhere and almost anywhere you hunt you will be able to find old branches to put in the Branch Fan to break up your outline.
If you are going to bow hunt without a blind, try to locate as big of a tree trunk as possible to sit against to break up your outline. When I hunt without a blind, I often spray down with an ultraviolet (UV) killer which will get rid of the UV glow that hunting clothes give off that turkeys can see. The spray helps hunters blend in with their surroundings better which you will need if you hunt without a blind.
If you are going to bow hunt for turkeys, learning how to use a diaphragm mouth call is also necessary. When bowhunting, your hands are rarely free to operate a box call or slate call because you are holding your bow. By mastering a mouth call, you can call and draw your bow at the same time. When I am about to let the arrow fly, I often cluck or putt on my mouth call to get the tom to look up or stop walking which allows me to take aim and make a good shot. Yelping on a box call, pushing a push button or operating a slate call adds complication to an already complicated task.
If you plan to bowhunt turkeys, be prepared. Gain permission to as much private ground as you can by knocking on the doors of land owners. If land owners say no, try to find as many public land spots as you can to hunt on. I like having many backup plans when turkey hunting because I often need two or three backup plans. If you call in a longbeard and spook him as you come to full draw, chances are you won't be able to call him in for a few days. Having a backup plan gives you other options. The more backup plans you have, the better chance you have of having a longbeard in the freezer before the season ends.
Decoys can be a blessing and a curse. Sometimes decoys spook turkeys and other times they work like magic. When bowhunting, I often roll the dice and then use them because I need all the help I can get to bring a tom within bow range. A decoy is a good yardage marker and will often entice a tom within twenty yards … and the closer a turkey is to me the better chance I have of tagging him.
I always have a range finder in my pocket when I turkey hunt because misjudging the distance to a turkey even by a few yards can result in a miss or crippled bird. The vitals on a turkey are small. If you know the exact yardage, your chances of scoring are much better.
The saying practice makes perfect holds true when it comes to bowhunting. If you want to score on a longbeard, you must be able to hit a target the size of a grapefruit consistently. For realistic practice, I shoot from a seated position inside a pop-up ground blind. I either shoot at a 3D turkey target or a Master Target turkey target that I can pin onto a block style target. Regardless of the option you choose, invest in a turkey target so you know where to aim.
My favorite place to aim at a turkey is directly above his legs. By shooting above the legs, I take out the tendons going to the legs so the bird can run away and I hit the back of his chest cavity. Most birds that are shot but not recovered run away and hide. Taking out the legs eliminates this possibility. Other shot options include aiming at the head or just under the butt of the wing where it attaches to the body, which will result in a lung shot.
Old fashioned woodsmanship can play a key role in tagging a bird. Spend a lot of time scouting and figuring out the daily routine of the tom you plan to hunt. Using scouting cameras is one way of figuring what time of day the flock of turkeys you are hunting travels between the roost and feeding or dusting areas. The other option is figuring out the patterns by spending time in the woods with a pair of binoculars in your hands. When push comes to shove and calling isn't working, sitting near a dusting bowl or a well-used feeding area can be productive just like deer hunting in the fall. Sitting in a travel corridor or near a food plot and being patient can often end in success.
Turkey hunting can be tough but by working hard, having a few of the right gadgets and practicing your yelps on a mouth call, you can up the odds and just might be able to celebrate Thanksgiving a little early this year.

A IR has at least one philosophy:representation and possibly one Web-accessible webarch:representation. I prefer the term "Web-accessible resource", which has at least one representation which is Web accessible. Otherwise you get in fights about whether the text of Moby Dick is an IR. 2. An IR can be given multiple URI, i.e. some awww:uri 3. An IR may have a time of creation. dc:created? 4. An IR may have a creator. dc:creator 5. An IR may have multiple encoding schemes (I.e. XML, RDF) and languages (french/english). What unites the IR is that they embody the same "informational content" ala Dretske.

This is more difficult. I kinda think the problem with information resources is that anything can be viewed as information on some level. The fact that "Jon Reese of today" is the same as "Jon Rees of yesterday" in my personal ontology is because I am abstracting over individual instances of him in time/space. Humans do this all the time, in all sorts of context-specific ways. So, then, in reality, I think all my 5 above properties are now officially mysterious to me.

Kevin Love trade rumors have the Cleveland Cavaliers asking a lot for the All-Star. Despite earlier Kevin Love trade rumors getting refuted by the front office in Cleveland, it now seems like the franchise is shopping him before the NBA trade deadline hits. A report from CBS Sports came out early Saturday, February 13, stating that sources are confirming that the Cavs are looking to deal Love. It also states that the asking price is considered to be extremely high at this point.
As previously reported by the Inquisitr, there are trade rumors about the Cavs, Boston Celtics, and New York Knicks possibly working on a three-way deal. In those rumors, it was stated that Carmelo Anthony would wind up the newest member of the Cleveland Cavaliers. Kevin Love would end up in Boston in the deal and the Celtics would send several young assets and picks to the Knicks. Though none of the teams confirmed these rumors, this revelation that the Cavs are shopping Love lends more credence to it.
So will these new Kevin Love trade rumors lead to anything? The Cavaliers are not looking to rebuild or save salary, so if the team isn't getting back another significant player, there is no point to trading Love. Even if there are chemistry problems with the trio of Love, LeBron James, and Kyrie Irving, it would weaken the team to simply trade Love for picks or younger players. A willingness to shake up the roster certainly shows how the front office is worried about competing with the Golden State Warriors and San Antonio Spurs though.
Kevin Love is having a down year with the Cleveland Cavaliers, averaging just 15.7 points and 10.3 rebounds per game this season. Love is shooting just 41.7 percent from the field and is taking six fewer shots per game than he did during the 2013-14 NBA season with the Minnesota Timberwolves. While he is still averaging a double-double for the Cavs, Love's production isn't what the team expected when it traded first-round pick Andrew Wiggins to the Wolves to acquire him.
Love is the second highest paid player on the Cavs, making just under $20 million this season. He is under contract through the 2019-20 NBA season, where he would make about $25.6 million with the team. The only player making more than him is LeBron James at a salary of $23 million this year and $24 million next season. As a team, the Cavs owe about $110 million in salary this season and should come in above the $100 million threshold next year as well.
Even with the roster problems and the constant Kevin Love trade rumors that the Cleveland Cavaliers have dealt with this season, the team still holds the best record in the Eastern Conference. Heading into the All-Star break, the Cavs are 38-14 and three games ahead of the Toronto Raptors for that top spot. The Cavs also lead the Indiana Pacers by 10 1/2 games for first place in the Central Division. It shows how the current roster might already be good enough to compete for the first NBA title in franchise history.
There are a lot of NBA analysts now stating that the Cavs are trying hard to trade Love before the deadline on February 18. Just because the team is looking to make a trade doesn't mean that one is about to take place though. A team like the Boston Celtics would really like to make a Kevin Love trade in the next week, but Celtics president Danny Ainge isn't going to overpay to make it happen. Even with all the rumors, the most likely scenario is that Love remains with the Cavs and they try to make a run at the NBA Finals. The NBA offseason could yield different results.

I've learnt a very important shopping lesson - the hard way:
I've always wanted to cook the perfect duck. Thus, I was always looking out for good duck deals, and I thought I saw one at Park'nShop's frozen meat section. US premium frozen duckling, ready to cook, and the price label said HK$24.90!!!
WOW! I had to look at the price label a few times! Normally, ducks at local frozen meat shops are sold at HK$39.90, I couldn't believe it! I just had to have it! I don't care if I couldn't find any ways to cook it, for HK$24.90, I could afford a failure, or so I thought.
I have a bad habit of not paying attention to prices at supermarket check outs (very bad habit) and hardly ever even look at the receipt. I knew I was buying quite a few items, but I was shocked by the total amount I had to pay. Wayyy more than what I expected. I checked the receipt, and found out that the duck costs me more than HK$120! Uh oh! They must have overcharged me, or displayed the wrong label. I was gonna go back to the cashier and ask. SC saved me from embarrassment by pointing out that the duck was sold at HK$24.90 PER 100 GRAMS, not for HK$24.90 for one whole duck!
Sigh...then and there, I felt burdened. HK$120 dramatically exceeded what I normally spend for meat, except for special occasions where I would buy pricey steaks. For HK$120, there's no way I could fail the duck. I'd better cook the duck's ass off and make sure it turned out bloody delicious....or so I hoped.
Indonesian Grilled Duck in Coconut Water and Spices - Bebek Kalasan
How the heck I should cook the duck? SC repeatedly reminded me (not gently) that I should NOT fail the duck. *Pressure pressure pressure*
I shouldn't cook the duck Chinese roast style, because you can get a Chinese style perfectly roasted duck here for just HK$88 (sobbing violently)...there's no way I could master that, in my home kitchen, at my first try. No. Freaking. Way.
So I was thinking...something Indonesian, something I haven't tried and I've missed for a long time. Bingo! Kalasan style!
- half a duck (I used the legs and wings only, I wanted to try the other half in another style - making the most of it)
- 5 cloves of garlic, peeled and crushed
- 6 cloves of shallot, peeled
- 1 stalk lemongrass
- coconut water (not coconut milk, it's the juice that comes out of the coconut) from 1-2 coconut (about 2 cups)
- 1 piece of palm sugar, dissolved in a bit of hot water
- salt, white pepper, olive oil
If you have a food processor, pulse garlic and shallot until fine. If not, use mortar and pestle, or simply finely chop them. Saute garlic and shallot in olive oil, add duck, add coconut water, add lemongrass, palm sugar syrup and season with salt and pepper. Add more hot water if you can't cover most parts of the duck. Cook until the juice is reduced and duck meat's tender. I used a pressure cooker and cooked the duck for 20 minutes. Once done, you can let it marinate or immediately grill/deep fry to brown the skin.
If you wanna grill it (like I did, as I hate hate HATE deep frying), preheat oven to 220C. Place duck in a non stick baking pan and add a bit of the juices to keep the duck moist. Grill until golden brown.
If you wanna deep fry it, drain the duck, pat dry and deep fry until golden brown.
You can also brown the duck skin before cooking in coconut water, simply season with salt and pepper. After cooking, simply throw into oven for a few minutes to crisp the skin.
Fragrant, flavorful, with a subtle sweetness to it. Taste great with rice, especially with a killer chilli paste. This recipe can also be done with chicken. I used fresh coconut water, but if you can find the canned/boxed version, give it a go.
What did I do with the other half of the duck?
I didn't do a duck sashimi, that's for sure.
Stay tuned to find out ^_^

Howdy folks,
Customers tell us that one of the things that really differentiates us from competitors is our focus on delivering industry leading identity and security solutions. So I'm excited about today's blog post. Idan Plotnik, the former CEO of Aorato, who leads our ATA engineering team is our guest blogger for today. He's going to give you the latest news on Microsoft Advanced Threat Analytics.
I hope you are as excited about the innovative work Idan's team is doing here as I am! And as always, we're looking forward to hearing any suggestions or feedback you have.
Best regards,
Alex Simons (Twitter: @Alex_A_Simons)
Director of Program Manager
Microsoft Identity and Security Services Division
Hi Everyone,
This is Idan Plotnik again. I'm writing to share some great news. Three months ago, at our Ignite conference, we announced the public preview of our new, cybersecurity solution, Microsoft Advanced Threat Analytics (ATA). Since then, we have seen significant interest with thousands of companies downloading and trying the preview version. This has been very exciting for us and we really appreciate all of the suggestions and feedback we've received.
Today, I'm excited to tell you that we are nearing the finish line. Microsoft Advanced Threat Analytics will be generally available in August 2015.
In my last blog post, I talked about the blind spot in IT security and explained the technology behind Advanced Threat Analytics. In this blogpost, I want to share some of the things we've learned about advanced attack detection and why we need a new approach in the "assume breach" world, I'll explain our "secret sauce", and detail some of the new capabilities added since the public preview and the network topology.
Why do we need a new approach?
After investigating a lot of cyber-security incidents in my previous jobs, I realized that network logs are not sufficient for detecting advanced attacks because finding attackers through log analysis is like searching for a needle in the haystack. Even if you find a clue, figuring out when, how and where something happened is nearly impossible. For example, you cannot detect PTT (Pass-the-Ticket) or Forged PAC attacks with just log files or only analyzing real-time events. That is why many security monitoring and management solutions fail to show you the real picture and provide false alarms.
We've taken a different approach with Microsoft ATA. Our secret sauce is our combination of network Deep Packet Inspection (DPI), information about the entities from Active Directory, and analysis of specific events. With this unique approach, we give you the ability to detect advanced attacks and stolen credentials and view all suspicious activities on an easy to consume, simple to explore, social media feed like attack timeline.
What is Microsoft Advanced Threat Analytics?
Microsoft Advanced Threat Analytics is an on-premises cyber-security product that detects advanced attacks using User and Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA). ATA combines Machine Learning, real-time detection based on the attacker's TTP's (Tactics, Techniques and Procedures) and security issues to help you reduce the attack surface.
What does ATA detect?
- Abnormal user behavior: ATA detects many kinds of abnormal user behavior many of which are strong indicators of attacks. We do this by using behavioral analytics powered by advanced machine learning to uncover questionable activities and abnormal behavior. This gives the ability for ATA to show you attack indicators like anomalous logins, abnormal working hours, password sharing, lateral movement and unknown threats.
- Advanced attacks: ATA also uses rule based analysis to detect advanced attacks in real time as they occur. This gives ATA the ability to detect Pass-the-Ticket, Pass-the-Hash, Overpass-the-Hash, Forged PAC (MS14-068), Remote execution, Golden Ticket, Skeleton key malware, Reconnaissance, and Brute Force attacks.
- Known security configuration issues and risks: ATA identifies known security configuration issues using world-class security researchers' work. This helps you quickly identify important security issues like broken trusts, weak protocols, and known protocol vulnerabilities.
How does it work?
After deployment, ATA immediately starts analyzing all AD related network traffic, collecting information about entities from AD, and collecting relevant events from your Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) System. Based on this analysis, ATA builds the organizational security graph and starts detecting security issues, advanced attacks or abnormal entity behavior. When an attack is detected, ATA builds an attack timeline which makes it easy for security analysts to understand the attack and where to focus their investigation efforts.
ATA Topology
Our deployment process is straightforward, simple and fast, but I still think it's important to understand the ATA topology and the ATA Gateway and the Center roles. In the diagram below, you can see that every Gateway is analyzing network traffic (DPI) from a different switch via port-mirroring, receive events from SIEM via Syslog listener or directly from the Domain Controllers via Windows Event Forwarding (WEF), then the Gateway sends the relevant data to the Center for detection:
New capabilities we've added for General Availability
We continued adding new capabilities to Microsoft Advanced Threat Analytics since we announced the public preview. We focused on scaling our solution as well as improving the infrastructure to enhance our detection capabilities.
- Support for Windows Event Forwarding (WEF) to get events directly from servers/workstations to the ATA gateway
- Pass-The-Hash detection enhancements against corporate resources by combining DPI and logs analysis
- Enhancements for the support of non-domain joined devices (and non-Windows) for detection and visibility
- Performance improvements to support more traffic and events with ATA Gateway
- Performance improvements to support more ATA Gateways per Center
- Automatic name resolution process to match between computer names and IP's – this unique capability will save precious time in the investigation process and provide a strong evidence for the security analyst
- Improving our inputs from the user to automatically adjust the detection process
- Automatic detection for NAT devices
- Automatic failover in case the Domain Controller is not reachable
- System health monitoring and notifications providing the overall health state of the deployment as well as specific issues related to configuration, connectivity
- Visibility into sites and locations where entities operate
- Multi-domain support
- Support for Single Label Domains (SLT)
Wrapping up
In August, you will be able to download the GA evaluation bits. Please read our deployment guide and enjoy the ride! You can post your questions and feedback in the discussion forum and we will respond to you as quickly as possible.

Instant Oatmeal
If you like it, save it!
Save and organize all of the stuff you love in one place.Got it!
If you like something…
Click the heart, it's called favoriting. Favorite the stuff you like.Got it!
Author Notes: Having a nice bowl of creamy, milky oatmeal at work can be very comforting. However, I can't stand instant oatmeal because of the sugar content, and I don't want to have to keep milk on hand just for oatmeal. Even having to use the microwave can be a hassle if oatmeal spills out of the bowl. Below is my solution that is surprisingly simple and delicious. —Foodie52
Makes: 2-4
cups Old fashioned oats
cup High quality dry whole milk
- Combine oats and dry milk in a blender (I use my vitamix for this). Blend until fine.
- Store mixture in a air tight container.
- When you want some creamy oatmeal, scoop some into a mug and add in hot water to make it the consistency that you prefer.

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Nara Chandrababu Naidu and former Congress party MP Lagadapati Rajagopal held a face to face meeting on Tuesday at Amaravati, previously the former Vijayawada MP met Babu in April-2017 to discuss about the business approvals required for expansion of his company Lanco.
The meeting followed the former Congress leader briefing media about why he had to come & meet Chief Minister in Amaravati. Lagadapati, speaking to the press, told – 'I have come to meet CM Babu only because he invited me' and he also went to offer a comment saying that 'the meeting did not involve a political discussion'.
Lagadapati further denied a media person's query about whether he/his team conducted any pre-poll survey after Nandyal by-election. Now that Rajagopal pushed the ball over to CM's court by telling that Babu only invited him, the questions left after the meeting: 'why did Chandrababu Naidu invite him to Amaravati secretariat? What discussion did they had? Whether Chief Minister asked Lagadapati to re-join politics in TDP?'
No further details about the meeting are disclosed and it's time for political pundits to debate the possibility of Lagadapati re-joining politics.

Wichita State reigned as the Missouri Valley Conference's best road team last season. It went 8-1 in conference road games, winning seven by double digits.
The Shockers might not duplicate that success this season. There is no reason, however, they shouldn't again stay in the MVC race by quieting home fans and boarding charter flights happy.
"If we can continue to have the same mindset we had last year, play as hard as we did and focus, we should be OK," WSU senior guard Joe Ragland said. "Last year, there wasn't one game that we took on a road trip that we felt like, on the plane, that we couldn't win."
The Shockers (9-2) take a seven-game win streak to Bradley (5-7) for tonight's conference opener. WSU struggled on the road as recently as the 2009-10 season, when it went 3-6 away from Koch Arena in conference play.
Last season, with five seniors in the lead, the Shockers possessed the right combination of talent and experience. They were one of three teams to compile a winning record in MVC road games.
This season, the Shockers again take five seniors on the road, and they know how to win. Three of those seniors won two straight at Southern Illinois, where WSU lost 11 straight from 1999-2009. Last season, they snapped a 17-game losing streak at Creighton and became the third Valley team in the past 10 seasons to go 8-1 on the road.
"There's two objectives this week, and the first one is to prove we're tough enough, mentally and physically, and mature enough, tough enough, to win on the road," WSU coach Gregg Marshall said.
The second is beating No. 21 Creighton on Saturday. Some of the luster comes off that game if the Shockers stumble at Bradley.
Voters — coaches, media and sports information directors — picked Bradley last in the MVC's preseason poll. The Braves, with new coach Geno Ford, appear more competitive than expected. In addition to the coaching change, Bradley lost leading scorer Andrew Warren to graduation and starting center Will Egolf to a season-ending knee injury. It already owns a road win — at George Washington. Last week, Bradley trailed No. 19 Michigan 50-49 before losing 77-66.
"They really played them well for about 32 minutes," Marshall said. "I think Geno Ford's teams are known for playing really hard."
That will not take WSU's returners by surprise. MVC play means holding, banging and grabbing. Conference play also means the element of surprise is often lost. Plays that worked against non-conference opponents are scouted and smothered. Scoring drops. Easy baskets are few.
"You've got to execute," Marshall said. "You've got to be able to score with someone climbing in your shirt-front. Or maybe your shirt-back. Or both."
Execution is a strength for the Shockers, especially during its seven-game streak. Since returning from a tournament in Puerto Rico, the Shockers are playing crisp, unselfish basketball. They are shooting 47.5 percent from the field and their assist-to-turnover ratio of 1.2 ranks third in the Valley.
"We really scored," Marshall said. "We're sharing (the ball) very well. We're rebounding it very well. There are a lot of positives."

Foreign Languages and Cultures Overview
Welcome to the Department of Foreign Languages and Cultures at Washington State University! Our department is as old as WSU itself — with foreign language courses being offered here since the founding of this land-grant institution in 1890 under the Morrill Act, and yet we play an integral role in WSU's very modern goal to offer students a world-class education, face to face.
To reflect that role, the name of our department was changed in the spring of 2003 from Foreign Languages and Literatures to Foreign Languages and Cultures. This change is a small but important one, as it reflects the exciting changes that have happened in the department, both in our focus and in the courses we offer. From the time of the earliest presidents of Washington State College (as it was originally known), who emphasized instruction in the humanities for a student body of rural origin, our mission has been to offer a course of studies and outreach programs to prepare our students to enter the global society, confidently and capably.
First of all, our curriculum has been expanded to include not only language and literature courses but also offerings in film, cultures, and global studies. Second, within our language sections (Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Russian, and Spanish) we have streamlined the curriculum to include the essential core and elective courses needed to gain proficiency in these languages and knowledge of their rich cultures. We have also developed specialized language courses for students in business, the social sciences, engineering, and the sciences. Our graduate program in Spanish—continuing the fine tradition of excellence since the first Masters Degree was awarded to Charles Augustus Barry in 1902—trains students for continued graduate work at the doctoral level and/or employment in education and industry.
In terms of outreach, we are looking at delivering these courses both in the traditional classroom and via Global Campus, while making sure that the same standards of excellence are maintained. We look to the future with the goal of globalizing our students though proficiency in one or more foreign languages and knowledge of foreign cultures. We invite you to explore this site to get to know us a little better and to enroll in one of the many language courses we offer each semester.
Study another language and culture! That is the way to translate an international outlook into a concrete reality!

Denver, CO (PRWEB) August 30, 2013
FORETHOUGHT.net, a local Denver-based internet provider since 1995, now provides Google-like gigabit fiber services in the Denver Metro area with the vision to provide gigabit fiber services along the Front Range and the Western Slope.
From a report from Speedmatters.org, Colorado is 21st in the nation for internet speeds. In the Denver metro area, a high-tech start-up hub, FORETHOUGHT.net is focused on providing Colorado businesses and residences the internet speeds needed to compete globally. The average Colorado download speed is approximately 7.4 megabits per second. A gigabit per second is the equivalent of 1000 megabits per second.
FORETHOUGHT.net led by computer networking and telecommunications engineer, Jawaid Bazyar, says "This is an exciting time for FORETHOUGHT.net to finally offer its community the fastest internet speeds (up to one gigabit fiber broadband) at affordable prices." Key benefits to working with a local provider in addition to its local staff are its commitment to keep internet access affordable and globally competitive with extensive peering and its commitment to have no bandwidth caps, no throttling and no hidden charges.
FORETHOUGHT.net is getting contacted by some real estate owners, managers and developers to hook up entire apartment, condominium and office buildings that do not have fiber connectivity currently. Most property owners and managers know the value the fastest internet connectivity will bring to their buildings and tenants.
The price for FORETHOUGHT gigabit fiber is comparable to lower speed services, as it is in Kansas City [with Google Fiber]. FORETHOUGHT.net is currently collecting interest to deploy this service initially and targeting owners and developers to install fiber gigabit in their buildings.
Bazyar explained, "There is a demand for gigabit speeds with higher bandwidth consumption online. Gigabit fiber from a local company here to support its clients can provide our customers the power and support that they need at a price that is comparable to a fraction of the speed."
FORETHOUGHT.net is in negotiation with other real estate owners, managers and developers to hook up entire apartment, condominium and office buildings that do not have fiber connectivity currently. "In fact", he said, "costs are significantly reduced if plans to run fiber to the building are made during pre-construction planning."
To find out more about FORETHOUGHT gigabit fiber and to light up fiber in your building, contact Christine Taylor at 303-815-1125 or go to success.forethought.net/fiber to express interest for this service in your area.
About FORETHOUGHT.net
Since 1995, FORETHOUGHT.net (http://forethought.net/businessservices.html) is a locally owned and operated Internet, cloud and communications service provider, offering a portfolio of enterprise-level cloud hosting, colocation, Internet, voice and data solutions for Colorado businesses and is focused on providing Internet speeds that work for Colorado.
The Denver Business Journal ranked FORETHOUGHT.net as a Top 15 Telecommunications Company and a Top 15 Internet Service Provider. ColoradoBIZ Magazine listed it as one of Colorado's Top 250 Private Companies. BBB.org accredited A+ member.

Lin Yao Liao Bench, 2018-03-07 16:07:06. For those concerned about sustainability and eco-friendly living, acacia makes a good choice. Acacia trees grow in such abundance in many regions of the world, that they're often considered an invasive species. Acacia is a dense, durable hardwood that can withstand the elements. It is often used in boat building. Sealing acacia serves to enhance and preserve the wood's rich, golden brown color. If left unsealed, acacia should be reserved for deck or patio furniture, since constant contact with the damp ground of a garden may cause the wood to discolor.
