My love affair with calamari started at a young age. I must have been 6 years old when I hovered by the food table at a party (best place to be, duh!). I reached out and helped myself to an onion ring. I bit down into the crunchy batter waiting for that sweet, soft onion inside but to my surprise this onion ring was elastic-like and smelled fishy. Unfazed I chewed it up, swallowed it down and carried on shovelling them into my crumb-covered mouth. I remember someone coming over to the table and I said "there's something wrong with the onion rings but they taste yummy anyway". They laughed and informed me that they were actually calamari. I probably nodded like I knew that already and walked away still not having a clue. But the next time my mother asked me what I wanted for dinner that's exactly what I asked for. My poor mum.. I've always had expensive taste, even with after school tea. No chicken nuggets or turkey twizzlers on the menu for me. Calamari and caviar all the way, darling. I'm sure she rarely gave in to my requests but every now and then for a Friday treat we'd go to the local chippy and get fish and chips (or calamari and chips for me). The smell of the freshly fried calamari and the vinegar from the chips soaking into the paper bag is something special to behold. It's a memory in smell form, when I eat it now I am instantly transported back to that little old chip shop. Nostalgia at its finest.
This recipe is so simple and takes very little time to prepare. Just be careful not to over-cook it, it'll taste like eating a rubber band. Not good. I've added some chilli (of course, spice on everything please!) to my calamari for a little extra layer of flavour but if you're a pussy you can leave it out. I won't judge you (that's a lie).
Serves 2 as a starter or 1 as a main
- 400g squid, cleaned
- 5tbsp plain flour
- 5tbsp cornflour
- 250ml milk
- 1tsp garlic salt
- Green Finger chillies (optional), sliced
- Lemon wedges
- Start by preparing the squid. Remove the tentacles from the body and put in a bowl, slice the bodies into rings about 2cm thick and add to the bowl. Pour in the milk and let rest in the fridge for at least an hour. This helps to tenderise the squid meat.
- When the squid has had enough chill time add your oil to a large saucepan, about two-thirds of the way up (or use deep fat fryer) and heat on medium high.
- In a large bowl sift together the two flours and add the garlic salt. Drain the squid from the milk and toss it in the flour mixture, coating it well.
- Test the oil by dropping a tiny bit of the flour mix in, if it ferociously sizzles you're good to go.
- Add the squid to the oil in batches, don't overcrowd it! The squid will be ready when it rises to the top and is crisp and lightly golden.
- Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil. Season with salt, pepper, the chillies and a good squeeze of lemon.

On September 15-16, public and private leaders, researchers and advocates will convene in New York City at the annual Global Open Data for Agriculture and Nutrition (GODAN) Summit to address the use of "open data" in combating hunger and to showcase innovative open data success stories from across the world. Open data is data that can be freely used, re-used and re-distributed by anyone, and this summit is the largest gathering ever planned around open data in agriculture and nutrition.
Each year, nearly 50,000 people apply to the Mandela Washington Fellowship – the flagship program of U.S. President Barack Obama's Young African Leaders Initiative that empowers young people through academic coursework, leadership training, and networking. Out of the applicants, 1,000 outstanding young leaders from Sub-Saharan Africa are selected to receive professional development training at various universities across the U.S.
For two days, major players in the humanitarian community gathered at the World Humanitarian Summit in Istanbul, Turkey, to discuss the current state of international aid and to call for change. It didn't receive much attention, but a major focus of the summit was the involvement of youth in humanitarian responses. While many countries sent youth delegates and the summit featured a separate youth forum, No Lost Generation at The George Washington University was the only student-run organization invited to share our work as part of an exhibition fair at the summit. I traveled to Istanbul with six other GW students to participate.

Valley Fuel Company
This photo was taken in 1912. The location was the southeast corner of Rainier and Alaska Street in Columbia City, where the Post Office is situated today. Rainier Avenue as well as Alaska Street was raised to accommodate the streetcar tracks which had originally been built on a trestle across the Wetmore Slough. The fill for Rainier And Alaska created a deep ravine on most of the block, similar in elevation to the Rainier play field located on the north side of Alaska Street.
The Valley Fuel Company coal bunker was situated in the ravine with a spur off the streetcar tracks on Rainier Avenue which allowed coal cars to be pushed over the top of the bunkers. Then gravity could feed the coal into the bunkers and into the wagons and trucks on the lower level.
This photo shows the Valley Fuel Co.'s coal bunkers being raised to a higher level to match the tracks after a Rainier Avenue regrade. As the demand for the coal diminished the bunkers were adapted to handling sand, gravel and other building materials.
The ravine where the bunker had been located was used as a garbage fill starting in the 40's. When that was filled the city continued the garbage fill east from the play field up to 47th Avenue and north across Genesee to the lake where Sayres Hydroplane Pits are today.
This area was known as Wetmore Slough and also included the area north along Rainier as far north as the junction with Empire Way, now Martin Luther King Way. (When Lake Washington was lowered nine feet to build the locks at Ballard in 1917 the Slough dried up).
The smell from the garbage fill permeated the neighborhood and made living nearby almost unbearable on warm summer evenings. They weren't as quick to cover it with dirt as they do today. The fill was completed in 1964 and is now Genesee Park.

Records of the personal and professional life of Stanford R. Ovshinsky, a Michigan inventor and pioneer in the field of amorphous materials; his work emphasized photovoltaics and batteries, among other areas. Includes correspondence, business files, technical publications and presentations, and related records documenting Ovshinsky's life, activities, accomplishments, and interests.
History / Biography:
Stanford Robert Ovshinsky was born November 24, 1922 in Akron, Ohio, to Benjamin and Bertha (Munitz) Ovshinsky, immigrants from Lithuania and Poland. He had two siblings, Herbert ("Herb") and Myrtle ("Mashie"), who was later known as Sandra. Stan married three times. On August 9, 1942, he was united in marriage with childhood friend Norma Rifkin; the relationship ended in divorce in 1959. To this union were born three sons, Benjamin, Harvey, and Dale. Stan subsequently wed Dr. Iris L. Dibner (née Miroy) in Toledo, Ohio, on March 30, 1962. Iris—an accomplished scientist with degrees in zoology, biology, and biochemistry—brought to their relationship two children of her own, Robin and Steven. Stan and Iris worked successfully together for the long and happy duration of their marriage, crediting their combined advances in science to their loving relationship. Iris's unexpected death in August 2006 devastated Stan. In late 2007, he married Dr. Rosa Young, whom he had known for more than twenty years through her work with Energy Conversion Devices. Stanford R. Ovshinsky passed away October 17, 2012 at his home in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, leaving behind a wife, three children, four stepchildren, and several grandchildren.
Ovshinsky began his working life at Tann Corporation in the Congress Controls division and served as Vice President of Cytrol Corporation before turning his attention to other areas of study. At the dawn of his career, Stan's lack of college credentials and the radical nature of his theories in the field of amorphous materials hindered the acceptance of his ideas by the scientific community, but his persistent dedication to his research eventually bore fruit. In 1968, Stan announced that he had discovered what was subsequently dubbed the Ovshinsky Effect, a phenomenon concerning the transformation of a nonconductive glassy thin film to a semiconductor with the application of a certain minimum voltage. This discovery, repeatedly corroborated by other researchers after Stan's announcement, marked a turning point in his life as a scientist.
By the 1970s, Stan's writings on the subject of amorphous materials and memory had become cornerstones of an expanding, promising field and made his name a common one in scientific circles. Invitations to speak at technical conferences and at university commencements, where he was awarded a number of honorary degrees, took Stan and Iris around the world and brought them into contact with many preeminent scientists. Over the course of his career, Stan earned his own remarkable place in the ranks of accomplishment, obtaining over 400 U.S. patents and penning more than 300 publications. He actively participated in research and continued to write technical articles, many of which he presented publicly, into his late eighties. The astonishing breadth and innovation of this work led prominent British newspaper The Economist to propose that Ovshinsky be considered "the Edison of our age."
A driven entrepreneur, Ovshinsky established numerous companies during his working life, building partnerships with a variety of national and international corporations. He started his first enterprise, Stanford Roberts Machine Company, around 1948. From this business was born one of Ovshinsky's first inventions, the Benjamin Center Drive lathe. Stan paid tribute his late father by naming the highly flexible, multipurpose machine in his honor. When the United States entered the Korean War in 1950, this lathe became a crucial and profitable tool in the production of massive amounts of shells for the American armed forces. Shortly before the beginning of the war, however, Stan sold both the Benjamin Center Drive and his business to the New Britain Machine Company, which was incorporated into Northrup Grumman after a series of acquisitions. In 1951, he accepted a new position with Hupp Motor Company as Director of Research and moved to the Detroit area, where he would reside for the rest of his life. At Hupp, Stan worked extensively in the development of improved power steering systems. On his own initiative, he also began studying the brain and principles of neurophysiology. This new interest prompted Stan and his brother Herb to found a business of their own, General Automation, where they created the Ovitron, a mechanical model of a nerve cell that functioned as a hybrid solid state/liquid state switching device. Stan and Herb patented and publicized the machine, a pioneering example of nanostructures, in 1959. Around this time, General Automation was renamed Ovitron Corporation in honor of its groundbreaking invention.
Stan's entrepreneurship reached new heights in 1960, when he established Energy Conversion Laboratory with his future wife Iris. In 1964, the company changed its name to Energy Conversion Devices, Inc. (ECD). ECD underwent tremendous expansion over the subsequent decades, creating numerous subsidiary companies and forging business connections around the globe, including partnerships with General Motors, Chevron, and Texaco. Seeking to solve critical social and environmental problems through cutting-edge research, the company focused primarily on energy generation, energy storage, and information technology. ECD applied new knowledge and techniques of amorphous materials to improve solar energy collection and use, nickel-metal hydride batteries (prominently used in hybrid cars), imaging film and display, and a host of other technologies. Over the years, the company and its subsidiaries attracted many brilliant people as employees, board members, consultants, and investors. Robert C. Stempel, formerly CEO of and automotive engineer with General Motors, joined Energy Conversion Devices as an advisor and quickly became its chairman, a position he held for 12 years. Hellmut Fritzsche, another prominent scientist and long-time researcher at the University of Chicago, became an ECD board member in 1969 and later served as vice president until his resignation in 2003. Fritzsche also worked with two of the company's subsidiaries, joining United Solar Systems as a member of their Board of Directors and Ovonic Battery Company as Chief Operating Officer. Other prominent scientists involved with ECD included David Adler, a celebrated physicist at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and Sir Nevill Mott, a distinguished British scientist and Nobel Prize winner in physics. While working at ECD, Stan also founded the Institute for Amorphous Studies (IAS), bringing together many of the scientists working in the field of amorphous materials and hosting lectures offered by members of the institute. Among the speakers who presented at IAS were at least five Nobel Laureates, a contributor to the Manhattan Project, and a pantheon of prominent academics at some of the world's top universities, colleges, and research organizations.
In 2007, following company disputes, Stan retired from ECD and began another enterprise, Ovshinsky Innovation LLC, with fellow scientist Rosa Young; he and Rosa married later that year. Ovshinsky led this company until his death from cancer in 2012, just one month shy of his 90th birthday. Shortly before Stan passed away, Energy Conversion Devices filed for bankruptcy, announced plans to dissolve, and liquidated its remaining assets.

Generic is a worm that spreads by copying itself, without infecting other files.
Generic does not spread automatically using its own means. It needs an attacking user's intervention in order to reach the affected computer. The means of transmission used include among others, floppy disks, CD-ROMs, email messages with attached files, Internet downloads, FTP, IRC channels, peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing networks, etc.
The worm can be considered a backdoor worm, as it has it's own backdoor, which allows the attacker to hack the computer and steal personal information.

Cross browser testing is one the realities of creating web sites & web applications and it's one of those things that can be a bit of a headache from time to time.
My setup here is pretty standard. I have a newish iMac for my day to day work as well as a Windows laptop. On the mac I run Firefox and Safari while on the laptop I have IE6, IE7 & IE8. That covers me pretty well for the majority of browsers but sometimes I'm working off site, my laptop is playing up or I need to show a client how something looks in IE6 vs Firefox 3 … enter Adobe Browser Lab.
Adobe Browser Lab is a web based service that essentially allows you to enter a URL which it then takes a screen capture of in many different browsers. It's quite fast, it's extremely handy and, for the time being at least, it's free.
You can do side by side comparisons of the screen shots as well as overlaying one screen shot on top of another and adjusting transparency between the two to see any differences.
Of course it does have some limitations. You can't interact with the content which means that you cant check things like hover states or expand containers or tabs etc. But for the most part it's still a useful service and it has certainly helped me out a few times.
Like right now in fact as I have just remembered I never bothered to test this site in IE and Browser Lab has shown me that it has some rather bad layout issues. I best get onto that 🙂

1. First Impressions.
Statistically, you have a seven second window to make a first impression.
That's it - just seven seconds, so let's make them good!
Two things play into first impressions at a vendor event -- YOU and your BOOTH!
Let's talk about YOU!
You want to appropriately represent your brand -- YOU are your brand - dress like it! If your brand is super casual and laid back -- then wear a cute hat with your company name/logo and a cute t-shirt. I sell LipSense -- I want to look professional and knowledgeable and I always wear the same outfit to events - a Red "lips" shirt with a cotton leopard blazer. Imagine if I wasn't wearing any make-up, looked a hot mess and dressed like a bum? Would you want to buy makeup products from me? No way! But most importantly, you need to look approachable -- wear a smile! :) "You're never fully dressed without a smile", right? That's actually great advice and very true when it comes to events! Check yourself -- "RBF" is a big deterrent! lol.
Now, let's talk about your BOOTH!
STAND OUT! You don't want to blend into the dark backdrops of all the other booths!
2. Draw People in!
So now we've got ourselves looking good ;) --
we've got our Booth looking AMAZING --
now we need to draw the people in to purchase!
Here are few things that help draw people in ...
Free Candy!
People love FREE and everyone loves Candy!
Photo Booth!
This is a fun one!! I built a simple PVC Pipe Photo Booth Stand, ordered a gold sequin backdrop, bought some cheap props off Amazon and voila!
It brought so many people of all ages by my booth!
3. Get them to buy.
The people are at your booth -- now what do you do?
How do you get them to purchase rather than just look?
My Favorite is the dice game! I bring large dice -- let people roll them and each number 1-6 coordinates to a specific discount that they can use right then! Remember, you want people to purchase NOW - not later - so encourage them!
Contests and Giveaways!
I normally take everyone's email address and then later that evening, I draw a name for a Free item (in my case, a LipSense gloss) or a Free Gift! I do the drawing LIVE in my group! This benefits me because I get them to join my group -- and also because I get their email addresses -- so I can add them to my MailChimp News flyer or Sales Ad when I send those out and potentially gain some long term customers!
*This is LipSense specific - but by giving away a gloss - they usually buy a color! Win Win!
Free Gift with Purchase!
I also do a FREE gift with purchase over $50.
I do this instead of giving event discounts --
it's much more cost effective to buy a few $1 make up bags, mirrors, etc!
4. Back for more!
They purchased! Now what?
You want to create repeat customers!
Make sure that all your "wrapping" has your Logo and that you give them a business card!
I also like to add to a little "coupon" or discount for a future purchase! Most likely, they know a lot of people that sell whatever product you're selling -- convince them to choose you! I pre-assembled my packaging before the event and all I had to do was stick the LipSense in there! Quick and Cute!
I also like to add a little sticker and sign that says ...
"Take a Selfie - Post it in my group and get 10% off your next purchase"
A few more things to keep in mind ...
Unfortunately, bad people are everywhere and people will steal. Make sure that your product is protected. I use clear acrylic drawers (dollar store) -- it allows people to see what product I have -- but the drawers (where they open) are behind the table so they don't have access to taking my product.
*The picture on the left is the view the customer's see -- the right is the view I see behind the table!
Set up a TRY IT ON station! If you sell clothing -- bring a "dressing room". If you sell make-up, set up a table where people can actually try it on! People want to experience what they are buying first!
To the right of my booth, I set up a "try it before you buy it" table.
See it back there? I created a sort of "U shape" ...
photo booth on the left, booth in the middle, "try it" station on the right.
I used a 4ft table with two "stations" --
each chair had a mirror, trash can and instructions on how to apply LipSense!
This also helped keep the front of my booth clear and available to new people walking by.
My best advice?
Learn from your mistakes -- tweak it and try something different the next time!
Take what you like, leave what you don't!
It's YOUR business -- do it YOUR way!
Are you interested in learning more about LipSense?

In an era where content marketing is becoming more prevalent, visuals are playing a bigger role in great online marketing than ever before. When it comes to digital, it is important to fully understand how visual content can help businesses get sales. I listened to some of the top marketers in the country at last week's (November 5th) Visual Revolution Summit to better understand how a business can most effectively use visual assets to drive brand exposure and revenue online.
Influencers & Superfans: A New Class of Celebrities
To begin, experts from Conde Naste (Teen Vogue), PlayStation, and Klout presented on the importance of influencers and superfans when promoting their brand. Celebrity endorsements are quite common in the industry today, and users pay little attention to products that are celebrity endorsed, expecting that they were paid to promote the product. Brands are increasingly reaching out to influencers in their industry and working with them to promote and try out new products, outfits, looks, or trials of their brand to get their audience to adopt their products. Influencers have a strong and real following in which they can post themselves wearing or using a specific product (and give their actual insight on it), and their followers are very likely to trust the legitimacy of the advertisement.
Video, Vidi, Vici
Following lunch, the next panel came on for the "Video, Vidi, Vici" portion of the summit. Experts from BBDO, NBC News, Roku, Expedia, and The Atlantic sat in a panel and answered questions about the importance of video and telling a story to your audience. Vic Walia, the Senior Director of Marketing at Expedia, stole the show with his presentation on Expedia's latest campaign in which they approached people on the street, asked them where their dream place to visit would be, and told them that they could go if they left immediately.
Most people did not take this seriously and made up excuses why they couldn't go, but one man who wanted to visit China jumped on the opportunity. Expedia's video campaign followed him as he rushed to pack, grabbed a cab, and headed on his journey, all expenses paid by Expedia. They went through the highlights of his trip, and were able to use this man's once in a lifetime experience for marketing content in the campaign at a low cost to them. The video triggered included great emotional triggers for audiences, and is a great start to a campaign that will strengthen trust and awareness for the Expedia brand.
Social Merchandising: Future of Commerce
Next, experts from BI Intelligence, Nine West, 11 Main, and RJK Project came on stage for a panel discussion on of the future of commerce. While all experts answered questions, Milton Pappas, President of E-Commerce at Nine West, stole the attention of the audience when he highlighted the latest rebranding of the Nine West brand, complete with actual user photos on the site of influencers and actual shoppers wearing each product. This gives shoppers a realistic look into what the product will look like in everyday life, and once again highlights the importance of influencers and superfans in the industry.
3 Ways to Win the Moment
For the last presentation, I had the pleasure of listening to Stacy Minero, Head of Planning at Twitter. She outlined ways that brands can jump into a conversation in real-time on Twitter by searching hashtags and relevant keywords, and stressed how important it can be for a business. Twitter users (and the audience outside social media) will see that a brand is a real person behind a desk or a group of people in an office, and is very likely to engage with your company when they realize that a real individual is speaking to the audience through the brand's social profile.
What examples of visuals have moved you to purchase a product or service from a business? Let me know in the comments section below.

The Royal Gunpowder Mills is surrounded by natural land including Cornmill Meadows and Fishers Green. The RGM site itself has open grassland, water ways and woodland, which are great habitats. Throughout the history of the site various areas have been used and then left to go wild. This all makes for an ideal place for wildlife to thrive. A majority of the site is designated a 'Site of Special Scientific Interest' and is therefore protected.
We are currently enhancing RGM's wildlife walk. The aims are to give visitors access to the most natural parts of the site and provide the opportunity to reveal the secrets and wonders of all the creatures who make RGM their home, hunting ground, grazing area and playground.
Becoming a wildlife conservation volunteer gives the opportunity to work in beautiful surroundings, to make a difference to the wildlife and visitors and to be involved with an exciting and rewarding project.

The added value Outcome Capital was responsible for was 10 times greater than the value we invested in their services. Our only regret was in not bringing them on sooner.
The Outcome team got fully up to speed with all aspects of our technology and business, and could pitch our company's story, and value proposition, as well as anyone. They researched a full list of potential acquirers in order to target those with high potential, and articulate the true value proposition for each target in very clear terms.
I was impressed by Outcome Capital's thoughtful M&A strategy and process, which stemmed from their ability to capture the complexities of Beryllium's scientific and business value propositions.

Holy Shit! I'm pregnant! Like the line is STRONG there is no second guessing if the test result is positive, that shit is positive. Holy Shit! I have major butterflies right now, actually I have had butterflies for about a week along with hot flashes now I'm wondering if those were symptoms? Ahh!! I feel really good vibes this time around (in case you didn't know I miscarried earlier this year after trying for about 2 years, read about it here) but I cannot help but be anxious until I see a doctor and he tells me all is good in there.
My mind is going a million miles an hour, I wasn't obsessing this go around and actually almost put it on hold...well maybe not on hold but came to terms that what's meant to be will be and had it in my mind that NOW wasn't my time to be a (human) momma. I cannot believe how damn strong those positive lines were, does that mean high hormones? Jeez, I hope not I'm already too sensitive and emotional...oh my goodness poor Jack LMFAO!
Dear God, thank you for blessing me with such a wonderful partner. We are the perfect balance; he's very calm and chill (which sometimes drives me crazy) while I'm outgoing and sassy. However; we both are warm, loving, and nurturing human beings who love family, friends, and children; we love hosting people in our home and showing them new things. While he knows how to handle me for the most part I ask you Lord to please watch over him and protect him from any of my potential wackiness...I'll need him to stick around, ha!
I honestly do not even know where to start: doctors, nutrition, fitness (I really want to attempt a fit pregnancy), names, a nursery, etc. In case you didn't get the memo I am a control freak yet we have decided not to find out the gender (we decided that a while back) because it doesn't matter to us, we just want a healthy baby and look forward to the surprise the day he/she is born. There are so many things going through my mind: nursery, names, baby shower, HOW THE HELL TO RAISE A DECENT HUMAN BEING!!! That right there is my biggest concern and focus, it is also my biggest fear; other than keeping this little being alive and healthy I have to ensure that he/she is a decent human being.
As of now my symptoms are super minimal and really comparative to PMS (cramping, bloating, and tender boobies) with the exception of sleepiness, hot flashes, peeing nonstop, and constipation (I can't poop and it's pissing me off). I'm really looking forward to being pregnant (so far) and watching my body transform and perform the miracle of life.
Ah I'm going to be a Mommy!

Not secure, do not use. Passwords are encrypted using the encryption settings determined by the machineKey Element (ASP.NET Settings Schema) element configuration.
Passwords are encrypted one-way using the SHA1 hashing algorithm.
The SqlMembershipProvider class supports different password storage formats but you should only use Hashed; Clear and Encrypted are not secure. Clear passwords are not secure and shouldn't be used. They are stored in plain text. Encrypted passwords are not considered safe, as a breach that reveals your database contents can also expose the encryption key. This means your encrypted passwords could be decrypted and exposed. Passwords are encrypted when stored and can be decrypted for password comparison or password retrieval. Hashed passwords are encrypted using a one-way salted hash when stored in the database. When a password is validated, it is combined with a salt value and then hashed. The result is compared with the value in the database for verification. Hashed passwords cannot be retrieved.

With the popularity of the Internet, more people are starting to turn to email as their main method of communication. There are dozens of email providers, and when you're searching for the right one for your needs, you'll want to take all factors into consideration. Comcast is one of the most popular email service providers; though before you sign up for an account, consider the following Comcast email precautions.
Comcast email precautions
Using Comcast and Email Clients
One of four comcast email precautions that users experience when they try to use certain email clients is the inability to receive and send emails on a regular basis. The majority of people experiencing this issue use a Comcast business account, though there have been reported issues with the personal accounts as well. Luckily, there is a workaround available on the company's website to help sync your account with Microsoft Outlook, Android, iPhone, and Blackberry.
Size and Storage Limits
The majority of email providers have a specific size limit for your account, meaning that you will only be able to store a certain amount of emails in your account. In most cases, your account should have a high enough storage to where you won't have to delete important correspondence, but with Comcast, that isn't always the case. If you're the type of user that sends and receives files with attachments, you might encounter an issue with storage limits on your account.
Another important factor to consider when it comes to Comcast email issues is downtime, as the company is renowned for gaps in their service. In fact, one of their outages made major headlines throughout blogs and online media publications. If you're looking for an email account that is going to guarantee 100% uptime, there's a high probability that you'll want to consider an account outside of Comcast.
Attachment Limits
At times you might find yourself in a situation where you'll have to send a large attachment to a friend, family member, or co-worker. Attachment limits can be a hassle as they prevent you from sending files over a particular size. You might find yourself breaking the information up into several different small files, and even then, the email may be too large to send. As another one of the four Comcast email precautions, Comcast has a limit of 20 MB attachments, though you can view more information about their size and storage limits on the company's website.

The National Post won three Canadian Online Publishing Awards on Monday night, including gold for Best Infographic.
"We are always trying to inform and entertain our readers in new ways," said Erin Valois, the Post's executive producer of digital. "It is important to us to focus on how we tell stories, and these awards showcase the rich talent in our newsroom."
Multimedia producer Brice Hall along with reporter Mike Doherty and illustrator Mike Faille won gold for an interactive map of Drake's many collaborators.
ThePost took silver for Best Continuing Coverage of a Story in the green category for Richard Warnica's Rob Ford obituary. The multimedia project featured an in-depth look at the former Toronto mayor's legacy after his death in March, including a comprehensive video package on Ford's time in the spotlight through the eyes of those who covered him. The Ford project was also nominated in the Best Article or Packaging category.
Videographer Graham Runciman and producer Mary Taws picked up a silver in the Best Video Content category for a feature on former refugees who shared what they learned as newcomers to Canada.
Also nominated was Hall for Best Interactive Story with his "Question Blaster" project — a parliamentary question period combat simulator parodying after Pokémon.
The Edmonton Journal also had two nominations: one for Best Editorial Packaging with its series on domestic violence and another for Best Podcast for its political podcast.

At an October 7 Congressional Staff Briefing, panelists discussed a popular question among energy analysts: can oil production meet rising global demand? Participants stressed that the price of oil will necessarily increase as the supply decreases, and that oil security has become an increasing problem for many countries, including the United States. But for many within the energy community, the real question is not about the future of oil, but about how renewable energy can play into our shared energy future.
Robert Hirsch, Senior Advisor at Management Information Services Inc., noted that "world oil production hit a plateau in mid-2004 and stayed in a narrow fluctuation range in spite of the 'Great Recession." As of 2010, that plateau will become a decline of 4 percent annually over the next 2–5 years, leading to 'worldwide crash mitigation,' or the implementation of large projects at the maximum possible rate to mitigate the peaking oil. However, sufficient research and development will take time, limiting the degree to which this will resolve the coming oil shortage.
Simultaneously, the U.S. Energy Information Administration projects that world liquid fuel demand will surpass 100 million barrels of oil equivalent per day by 2035, up from 84 million barrels a day in 2009. So oil production will go down, oil demand will go up, and there's not much we can do about it. Or is there? Instead of focusing on oil depletion, why not work to change U.S. and world oil consumption patterns?
Consider the U.S. military's transition away from oil. The military, which must be highly mobile on the ground and in the sea and air, is highly reliant on oil. In 2005, the Department of Defense (DOD) consumed approximately 125 million barrels of oil, 74 percent of which was used to power transport vehicles. A military Humvee, for example, has a fuel capacity of 25 gallons and runs at 12 miles per gallon, giving it a range of 300 miles. Just one tank of fuel costs US$939. With 50,000+ humvees in use today, the total cost for fueling these vehicles can be upward of US$46 million annually. In addition, operations in the field, and often entire military camps, are powered by diesel generators that require a continuous and secure supply of fuel.
As oil prices and security risks increase, the U.S. military has become more interested in exploring alternatives. Just recently, 20 U.S. and NATO oil tankers were set afire in Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan, while attempting to cross the Khyber Pass into Afghanistan. The DOD's total fuel expenditure in 2007 was $13.2 billion, a 41 percent increase from 2005. All of this highlights the need to diversify the energy supply and adopt alternative means, not only for monetary reasons, but also to not waste—and endanger—soldiers during oil transport and protection. Alternative energy would allow the United States to use resources that do not require transport and to use surrounding assets freely without any possible danger. Ray Mabus, the Navy Secretary and former ambassador to Saudi Arabia, stated that he hopes to generate half of all power needed for the U.S. Navy and Marines from renewable energy sources by 2020.
The U.S. military is often at the forefront of technological innovation and is the latest influential group to help usher in the future of renewables. Military inventions, once successfully deployed, are often later converted for civilian use. In the late 1970s, the DOD invested in Global Positioning Systems (GPS) to enable the armed forces to have access to 3-D positioning and velocity information in locations all around the world. Today, GPS devices can be obtained in any electronics store.
As the military continues to innovate, it will continue to generate products that have wider application in the civilian economy. Last week, a Marine company arrived in Afghanistan with transportable solar panels that fold up into boxes, solar tent shields that offer shade and electricity, and solar chargers for communication equipment. In the same vein, the Air Force, in late August of this year, flew the first aircraft with a 50-50 combination of biomass fuel and jet fuel.
To assist with the transition to cleaner jet fuel, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has begun extracting oil from algal ponds at a cost of $2 per gallon, with the end goal being large-scale production of jet fuel from this refined algae oil. DARPA has a set target to create a "surrogate JP-8" that would cost less than $3 per gallon at a production rate of 50 million gallons a year to enable the algal biofuel to be competitive with petroleum-based fuels. The military has the capability and funds to pursue these types of alternative energy projects, which are a more affordable investment in the long term than oil production, according to many experts.
As the alternatives to fossil fuels become more reliable, durable, and affordable, expanding use of alternative energy should be the real focus of discussion, rather than how to continue producing 84 million barrels of oil per day, as the world did in 2009, at outrageous environmental, health, social, economic, and security costs.

While for many people Feb. 10 marks a few days left to plan a special romantic surprise, an intimate dinner date or even make plans for a child's classroom Valentine's Day party. For me it means it's Congenital Heart Defect Awareness Week.
I couldn't believe I had almost forgotten a special week that for the last five years had meant so much to me, the mother of a child with a Congenital Heart Defect.
It was only a few years ago that I was in the hospital for my coiling my son's shunt.
It was only a few years ago I was a new mom who needed to talk to others about CHD and began a blog.
It was only a few years ago I was "living" at the hospital waiting for every moment I could have a chance to see my son take a breath and wonder if it was his last one.
It was only a few years ago I was a pregnant first-time mom who had no idea what would soon change my life (and my soon-to-be-born son's life) forever.
The difference a few year will make.
As I've documented our journey throughout the years, I often get asked from friends and followers, "Jackson is ok now, right?"
And for the most part he is - for now.
Thankfully, his body and his incredible heart team have kept him a mostly healthy five-year-old boy. While I have little to restrict him from or to keep my eye out for at this time, I do have reminders that he's special like the 1 out of 8 children that are born with CHD every year.
For instance:
When we go to the dentist, he can't just have a cavity filled without approval from his pediatric cardiologist and a special antibiotic.
When his friends sign up for football or soccer, he can be a participant now, but he'll have to be restricted due to the impact it can cause his heart.
When I think in only 10 years, he'll once again face another procedure to keep his heart workingand he can continue to touch lives the way he continues to touch mine every day.
Unfortunately, this is not always the case with children affected by CHDs. As parents of children with CHDs, it is our responsibility to share our childrens' stories in hopes that it will touch someone's life - either to give them hope, to give them strength or most of all, to give them awareness to a condition that affects 40,000 births a year.
So this year while we sit on the heels of Jackson's annual appointment; at the same hospital I learned of his CHD, I ask not that you feel pity or sadness, but that you realize that the best way to help Jackson is to make yourself and the others around you aware of what is a congenital heart defect.
To check out the #RockYourScar Contest with photos of other CHD kiddos showing their "battle scars," check it out here.
To learn more about Jackson's Journey, view his photos here.

Betcha didn't know National Marching Band Day was Wednesday, March 4.
There is no National Pep Band Day, but thanks to the fine young ladies and gentlemen of the Ole Miss Pep Band, it might have to be March 5.
The Rebel band played during the women's basketball game against Arkansas in the SEC Tournament in Little Rock, AR, on Thursday. Then, about six hours later, the band played in support of the University of Kentucky women's team as it took on Vanderbilt.
Thanks to this week's snowstorm, UK's pep band couldn't make the trip, so Ole Miss stepped in and helped the Lady Wildcats to a 67-61 win.
Funny thing is, the Arkansas band did the same thing Thursday, playing for Georgia as the Lady Bulldogs played Missouri.

I agree we had a positive outcome and I found your advocacy on behalf of --- and the parents to be collaborative and void of negative comments. Your requests and comments were reasonable, this has not alway been my experience with other advocates in the field.
We work hard to foster good reputation and create trusting relationships, a challenge for us with --- parents. Your continued support to the family will hopefully improve our relationship.

Phoenix Az
Director of Special Education
Like always, my advocate was professional, factual, to the point and got my son and our family what we deserve and need! She turned a devastating situation for us, into something that had the right outcome. She has and still does fight this fight with her own son so she understands what we are going through and what is needed. Most of all, she builds relationships with the school and school team without deferring from what is appropriate for the child by sticking to the law.
On this kind of journey I feel the need to pass on providers that truly get our kids and go above and beyond the call of duty. That is why I want to share this information with you!

I felt like a champion today with you by my side. Fighting for inclusion has not been easy for my daughter. It was amazing how you let everyone know it was ok that kids with developmental delays deserve high expectations. The babysitting is over!!!

You arrived knowledgeable and ready to educate the team just as you promised. You met our school team where we were and shared data so the IEP team could make informed decisions. Thank you so much. The quality of your advocacy surpassed all my expectations.

I love this quote from the Archbishop in the picture.""The idea was really inspired by the Holy Father himself," Edinburgh's Archbishop "He said to be imaginative about what to do for the Holy Year of Mercy." Just imaging God chilling up there like yeahhhhhhh attendance at mass is way down sooooooo we need a smartphone app." It lets people find the nearest mass, church, confessional and view statistics, and so far is only available in Rome. But in 2017, "The Catholic App" will take over the world. Which sounds much more ominous than I meant it to.
