Dirt Bike Hunter Chases Down Wild Hog
Whatever it takes to battle the local wild hog population.
It's no secret that wild hogs are taking over and destroying areas of this country, so much so that some states like Texas have an open season on these menaces 365 days a year.
Check out what this dirt biker does when they come up on a hog.
Doesn't get much better than that!
After moving to the Lone Star state and realizing that hog hunting is more than just hunting, it's nearly a civic duty, I pulled the trigger(literally) on buying a rifle dedicated to killing pigs. Nearly as important as the rifle and scope is the light that's mounted on the side of the weapon. With plenty of hogs moving after sunset, it's crucial that your rifle has a powerful beam of light to light up your scope. After several hunts over the course of nearly 6 months, I can tell you that the lights from Elusive Wildlife are top of the line.
Straight out of the box, you can tell that there's nothing cheap about them, quality is not compromised anywhere on these lights. The flashlight bodies are nearly indestructible, the controls are easy to operate(even with gloves on) and the rechargeable batteries will hold a charge for extended periods of time during even the coldest weather. Whether you're a diehard hog hunter or just love to get out there and to crush the local coyote pack, the lineup from Elusive Wildlife is definitely worth giving a try on your favorite weapon. Simply put, an all-around outstanding weapons light.

The trustee of the LV= Pension Plan wanted to challenge the reputation that pensions are boring by creating a fresh way to engage employees with their pensions. The result was the development of a fun and surprising 'pensions village' brand, used throughout all new-look communications.View
A well planned process beginning with the analysis of employee data allowed AHC to identify the barriers to joining, and establish the most effective ways of engaging the audience. AHC adopted a unique approach which enabled the pilot group to provide 24/7 feedback on the developing strategy.View
To meet Asda's corporate value of 'Caring for our colleagues' and to help colleagues through the tough economic climate, AHC worked closely with Asda to develop a Total Package website and online Total Reward Statements. The main aim was to emphasise the total value of the benefits Asda provides to its colleagues, by making all of this information available in one easy-to-access place.View

Question about Watches
Posted by Anonymous on
SOURCE: I have freestanding Series 8 dishwasher. Lately during the filling cycle water hammer is occurring. How can this be resolved
Hi there,
Save hours of searching online or wasting money on unnecessary repairs by talking to a 6YA Expert who can help you resolve this issue over the phone in a minute or two.
Best thing about this new service is that you are never placed on hold and get to talk to real repairmen in the US.
Here's a link to this great service
Good luck!

SOURCE: Dkny watch- repair, need extra links
I suggest calling DKNY customer service @ 1-800-231-0884 This is their return or repair department they should be able to help with links for your watch.
Posted on Mar 12, 2008
SOURCE: Replacement battery for DKNY NY1050
I found a "battery" website that had some suggestions that should be typical of any snap back case watch.
specifically they said that when you try to press the back on it must be flat (not one edge down as I had been trying) Put the watch face down on a non scratch surface and press with both thumbs evenly. If that doesn't work a press will be needed. If you have a vice a couple of blocks of wood to distribute the load on the front and back may work, otherwise take it to a jeweler with the proper equipment.
The thumb routine didn't work for me. I have a vice but figured many wouldn't so I tried something else first. I put the watch face down on a piece of wood. I found a small 2" long scrap of wood (3/4" x 1.5" approx) that spanned the back. I centered the back (aligned properly) placed the block of wood squarely and centered across the back and tapped the end of the block with a hammer. First try didn't work, second one did. I used a rubber mallet as the hammer but a regular hammer or other heavy object would work. The trick, I think, is to get everything lined up and square so the blow is centered and even.
Also, I'd suggest cleaning the back and the groove in the case and be sure the rubber gasket is properly positioned. This will give you the best chance of retaining the waterproofing. And remember to check that the watch is running before you do this. Some need to be reset (usually with a very small screwdriver or pin) after replacing the battery. There should be a small hole with some printing next to it. You may need a magnifying glass to see/read it.
Hope this may help you;

SOURCE: replace the back of a dkny watch after replacing the battery,
For closing your caseback you need the man with very strong hands first, but it might not work as some casebacks can be closed using special tools only.
Before you visit the watchmaker, try this: first of all open your bracelet by taking out spring lug. This will make more space at the back. Then take watch caseback and check for groove in it. Align that groove with stem (pin going into watch movement) and deepen grooved caseback side as it should be. Then without turning caseback apply great pressure with both hands to the watch(from caseback and dial sides). If hands are strong enough, caseback should snap on into place.
In case if it doesn't work, find a piece of thick leather (wide mens belt will do) and place it on completely flat surface (table top). Place the watch face down on that leather, adjust caseback groove with stem again and try to press caseback down with both hands, only this time using your weight.
If all mentioned above doesn't work- you have to go to see watchmaker.
Good luck.

SOURCE: Watch band sizing
OK, I make an attempt:
I saw on other pictures on the web that the links have small holes at the side. There should be some links with arrows r another marking. These are usually the links that can be removed to shorten the strap.
If there is a small arrow on the link, it means that you can push out the pin inside the hole in the direction of the arrow. Then the link can be detached.
You can push it out with a blunt sewing needle (break off the tip).
Remove links on both sides of the watch when resizing it.
Hope that helps.

Diabetic Digest - November 9, 2016
I've been feeling good lately. I've lost a substantial amount of weight thanks to cutting back on my insulin and the amount of food I consume. It's been working very well.
My heaviest was around 280lbs. and now I'm holding strong at 212lbs.; I still can't get over it.
I've had to buy new pants. Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever had to buy new pants because I lost weight. Wow, that's a first.
I wonder what's next if I keep this weightloss train going strong? I guess we'll just have to see.

Study identifies how much artificial sweetener is absorbed into blood
WASHINGTON - Compared to adults, children were found in a recent study to have twice the blood concentrations of artificial sweeteners after drinking a can of diet soda.
The study was conducted by researchers at the National Institute of Diabetes, Digestive and Kidney Disease at the National Institutes of Health. The team assessed how children and adults absorb the sweeteners into the blood stream, and found the chemicals sucralose and acesulfame-potassium at a higher rate in younger participants. The findings were published in the journal Toxicological & Environmental Chemistry.
In the experiment, scientists measured the levels of artificial sweetener in the blood streams of subjects after drinking a can of diet soda. The study involved a group of 22 adults between the ages of 18 and 45 years old, and a group of 11 children between the ages of 6 and 12. None of the subjects had any known medical conditions.
The group of children were found to have double the concentrations of plasma sucralose in their blood streams after drinking a single 12-ounce can of diet soda, compared to the adults.
Researchers say this finding adds to their previous work, which revealed these sweeteners were also present in breast milk when mothers consumed certain foods, beverages or medicines. Because the kidneys of children under age 2 have have a lower filtration rate, researchers say blood levels of artificial sweeteners in infants could proportionately be even higher.
The study's release comes as many medical scientists and consumers are concerned over the long-term effects of artificial sweeteners. The research team warns early exposure to the chemicals may negatively influence a child's future taste, diet preferences and metabolic rate.

Deviprasadam trust
The twist of events in the course of history will make certain happenings inevitable. The latter half of Twentieth century witnessed unbridled sweeping changes in the socio-cultural and economic life in Kerala. Kerala's splendor in varied forms of fine arts is an internationally acclaimed one. No adjective is enough to describe the contributions made by the then Feudal Namboothiris
Olappamanna is the family name of feudal lords. They belong to priestly Brahmin Caste of Kerala, namely Namboodiris. Mana means Home of Kerala Brahmins in Malayalam.
They were immensely rich till the land reforms act was implemented in Kerala during 1965-70. They were patrons of art forms like Kathakali, Percussions, Classical Music, Literature, Vedic and Sanskrit education. They stood head and shoulders above others in patronizing these fields.
But the glories and golden days have gone for ever. Feudalism has become a part of history now in Kerala. There happened drastic changes in the socio-cultural and economic fields in Kerala for the last quarter of 20th century. The Olappamanna family also had to surrender their forests and lands to Government with no compensation. They had to reduce their splendid ness in their life style and had to leave their patronage to arts and culture.
In the changed scenario, Olappamanna Mana members decided to "Serve and Preserve their cultural heritage"- This resulted in formation of Deviprasadam Trust. The main Building of Olappamanna Mana is preserved by the Trust. Further the Trust from 1990 on words gives annual Awards to eminent personalities in the fields in which Olappamanna Mana had its contributions earlier, namely, Kathakali, Karnatic Music, Malayalam Literature, Veda and Sanskrit Literature. Further the Trust also co-operates with all cultural activities by others in these fields.
The trust is having a library with valuable books in English, Sanskrit and in our mother tongue Malayalam. We also have palm leaf books.

- More Resiliency: Rebounding from Challenging Circumstances
- More Collaboration: How can we work together?
- More Churches: What trends are we observing?
- More Money / Partner Development: What best practices do we need to share?
These are some of the possible topics for discussion during our time together. Do you have other ideas? If so, feel free to send me an email: email@example.com.

Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD) or Complex Regional Pain Disorder (CRPD) is an imbalance of the autonomic nervous system (ANS). The ANS responds to stimuli, trauma, sudden insults, or viruses and other toxic substances. The signals travel to the brain from proprioceptors or through injured parts of the body. The limbic system that controls emotional or sub conscious responses activates the skin, hair, and smooth muscles like the colon or bladder. The activating part is called the sympathetic or stimulating nervous system. Imagine a car accelerator. The calming part is called the parasympathetic nervous system. Imagine a car brake or gravity pulling down and a parachute braking your descent through the air.
An over reaction or long term (chronic) response in the sympathetic nervous system is exhausting for the systems in your body. You might feel an itchy burning sensation or pain that persists long after the initial cause has subsided. An acute response might include sweating, raised hairs, goose bumps and swelling. In a chronic response the skin might go dry and stiff with loss of muscle strength and tone.
To address the issues we need to understand where the sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves come from. The sympathetic nerves largely come from the spinal chord under your ribcage. The ganglia or nerve junction boxes lie just under your ribs. If one of your ribs has been dislodged by only a fraction the nerves will be acutely painful. Often people are tested for heart disease because of chest pain when the sympathetic nerves are on edge. At the very base of your neck there are some nerves that supply the eyes. Near there are receptors that help to govern your heart rate. In your middle ribcage some nerves affect your digestion.
The parasympathetic nerves originate from the area under your sacrum at the base of your back and just under your skull at the top of your neck. The vagus nerve also wanders down your neck, emerging from a gap in your skull between the bony bump behind your ears (mastoid), and the bones at the back of your head (the occiput).
So what can help us to balance the two systems?
Yoga twists especially seated, help to unlock the ribcage releasing the sympathetic nerves and squeezing your inner organs like the liver to refresh the blood flow. Lying on a yoga block or rolled up towel can also open up your rib cage.
Chiropractic or Osteopathic manipulation helps to release the facet joints that sometimes lock the spine and affect the nerves.
Massage especially with firm pressure from experienced hands helps to unlock the spinal sympathetic nerves.
Skin brushing or stroking has a calming effect giving feedback to the spinal nerves.
Massage just under the skull and around the sacrum helps to calm the nervous system and release the parasympathetic nerves. For instance the sexual organs are stimulated by the nerves at the junction between ribs and lumbar and given intense pleasure from the nerves that emerge from the sacrum.
Acidity of the bloodstream can affect the autonomic nervous system. The blood passes through receptors and proprioceptors that trigger responses in the ANS. I once treated an environmental health officer who suffered from digestive upsets since giving up smoking. We successfully unlocked the ribcage through manipulation and improved the breathing through the diaphragm. He still had some irritable bowel disorder. I put him on a teaspoon of Aspalls cider vinegar before meals with meat and other proteins and fats in them. Cider vinegar contains malic acid that helps digestion of fats and assists the hydrochloric acid in the stomach to break down proteins into peptides. Smoking had probably changed the acidity of his bloodstream. His digestion made a dramatic improvement.

To promote Skype's newly-free-of-charge Group Video Calling feature, we made this documentary-style film profiling an actual two-man startup who used it to keep their business lean, mean, and profitable. I served as co-creative lead on this piece.
I founded UX publication WANT Magazine with David Gómez-Rosado back in 2009. We wanted to promote the discipline of User Experience, the art/science of making products and services enjoyable to use. It's part design, part psychology, part marketing, and to me, entirely fascinating.
Many in the UX industry agreed with me, including Communication Arts, who profiled it in 2011. I conducted interviews with industry luminaries like Don Norman and Jakob Neilsen. As Managing Editor, I herded a team of writers, designers, and even a cartoonist to the finish line, each issue.
Working at Skype presented some fascinating opportunities, not least of which was interviewing people who use Skype to improve their lives, careers, or relationships in unusual ways.
I had the chance to cover the Austin blues-harp player who supports his family teaching harmonica around the world. Or the psychologist who takes his practice anywhere he wants. Or the professional baby-whisperer.
Writing for the Skype Blog kept my journalism skills sharp while attracting new audience for Skype via engaging stories you wouldn't hear anywhere else.
The smallest budgets require the most creative solutions.
CA Technologies, a 30,000-employee Fortune 500 company, wanted to create thousands of new company evangelists by encouraging its employees to use social media. To that end, they wanted to distribute a video internally that explained social media's advantages and laid out proper etiquette (i.e. "Don't give away company secrets on Twitter," etc.) The vid needed to be fun and engaging, resonant to the company's wide age demo, and produced by their in-house A/V department on a *very* tight budget.
The creative solution I pitched them, and which they were kind enough to trust me with, was to make it look like a 1950s educational film, using old public-domain and rights-managed (i.e. free and cheap) footage, coupled with a 1950s-style VO and an extra low-maintenance shoot of a 1950s-ized CA employee as the clueless foil.
This was a virtual hand-off to their internal production team across the country. I provided them with a full animatic, a scratch VO, and dozens of carefully-curated clips. Time-consuming, budget-friendly, and more than a little bit of fun to put together.
I consider it a personal victory that I got the bees in there.
How to keep kids off drugs? Zombies.
Created for Partnership For a Drug Free America, this game racked up a whopping 1.5 million plays in its first three months. Earth has been taken over by zombies and it's up to you and your jetpack to save the human race! Part of the PDFA's "Above The Influence" campaign; aimed at teens.
I devised the basic concept with a pair of designers, and fleshed it out into a series of scripts and creative specs that became the basis for the game development. The results are no longer online, but the screen shots below should give you insight into the fun that was ZOMBIE ESCAPE.
From the display campaign that drove traffic to the online game.
Since dropping the "Jeeves" from their name, Ask.com has worked very hard to give a faceless search engine a human voice. I like to think I've helped with that, starting with my days as their first Content Manager and, more recently, writing various customer-facing materials for them. They asked me to write their 10-years-later 9/11 post, and having lived in NYC in 2001, I was glad to do it.
Another post I wrote for them, "The Latest Google Flatline," made fun of the reliability of Google's free services with the help of a handful of search-industry in-jokes. It was even nominated for a "Semmys" online humor award. So there's that.

Established in 1965, the Elizabethport Presbyterian Center, affectionately known as the "EPort Center" was established to address the social and economic needs of the working poor during a time when major local manufacturers were closing their doors and there was social unrest across the nation. With support from community members and the Presbytery of Elizabeth, the Elizabethport Presbyterian Center is one of the oldest non-profit agencies in Elizabeth and is an "anchor organization" in the Elizabethport area.
Located in one of the poorest communities in Union County, the EPort Center has helped children and families break the cycle of poverty through faith-based social services and educational support services
for nearly five decades.
Today, support is provided by members in the Presbyterian community, local community leaders, government, and private sector partners and philanthropists dedicated to the work of the EPort Center.

Here are the Bookish staff's personal weekend reading recommendations; have you read any of them? Tell us in the comments what you'll be reading this weekend! If you're still looking for some inspiration, check out our Summer Previews for a look at the best books of the season.
The Likeness
Tana French, the First Lady of Irish Crime, is one of my absolute favorite authors. She has a new book coming out this fall and, because I'm just so impatient, I've decided to revisit my favorite book in her Dublin Murder Squad series. It's a twisted novel about an undercover agent blurring the lines between her true and false identity when she infiltrates the friend group of a murdered girl. And, just to further entice you, I'll end off with my favorite quote from the book: "I wanted to tell her that being loved is a talent too, that it takes as much guts and as much work as loving; that some people, for whatever reason, never learn the knack." —Kelly
In Defense of Food
Northern California is getting to me, you guys. First, I got obsessed with hot yoga. Then I tried (and liked) a green smoothie. Now I'm reading Michael Pollan. I've read Pollan before, and love his thoughtful and clear prose. I'm excited to read more about the reasoning behind his now-famous instructions: "Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants."—Elizabeth
The Paris Librarian
Mysteries and thrillers are growing in popularity, and the subgenres are multiplying. I am completely on board with this. The Paris Librarian is one book I have been excited to read, since friends who share my interests have recommended it to me. —Bob
Hyperbole and a Half
I'm probably the most hyperbolic person on the planet, so I really connect with Allie Brosh's sense of humor and the gravity she gives to the most mundane of situations. I like to pick up her book from time to time and flip through to favorite comics (usually the ones about her dogs). If you're utterly unfamiliar with her work, might I recommend you start here: Dogs Don't Understand Basic Concepts Like Moving. —Kelly
Fool of the Family
After journeying to the Aran Islands for the first time last month, and rereading John Synge's magnificent 1907 book The Aran Islands, I wanted to learn more about his life. W.J. McCormack's Fool of the Family is considered the best of the small handful of biographical works, and so far it's excellent. Synge's tale is yet another story of an immensely gifted artist—I'd call him a genius based only on his Aran book—taken too young, but in his 37 years, before dying of Hodgkin's lymphoma, he wrote brilliant nonfiction about the West of Ireland, and wrote timeless plays as well, including The Playboy of the Western World. His take on the western Irish, insufficiently idealizing for Irish nationalists, caused riots at Dublin's Abbey Theatre. The part of his life I'm most looking forward to exploring are the years when he was shuttling back and forth between fin de siècle Paris, world-capital of culture, and the remote, windswept Aran isles, with their endless stone walls, cowhide boats and shoes, Irish language, and tiny populations, just a few hundred story-telling farmers, fishermen, sweater-weaving women, and island children. —Phil

It was clearly understood by those who were called Anti-federalist that at some point in time when designing and immoral persons would take the seat of president that a 'despotism' would be ready to exercise via the modality of the 1787 Constitution.
What was predict here that rings to your ears and reality in this present day? Hear the Federal Farmer from his 18th Article in the Poughkeepsie Country Journal.
January 25, 1788.
Dear sir,
I am persuaded, a federal head never was formed, that possessed half the powers which it could carry into full effect, altogether independently of the state or local governments, as the one, the convention has proposed, will possess. Should the state legislatures never meet, except merely for chusing federal senators and appointing electors, once in four and six years, the federal head may go on for ages to make all laws relative to the following subjects, and by its own courts, officers, and provisions, carry them into full effect, and to any extent it may deem for the general welfare; that is, for raising taxes, borrowing and coining monies, and for applying them — for forming and governing armies and navies, and for directing their operations — for regulating commerce with foreign nations, and among the several states, and with the Indian tribes — for regulating bankruptcies, weights and measures, post-offices and post-roads, and captures on land and water — for establishing a uniform rule of naturalization, and for promoting the progress of science and useful arts — for defining and punishing piracies and felonies committed on the high seas, the offences of counterfeiting the securities and current coin of the United States, and offences against the law of nations, and for regulating all maritime concerns — for organizing, arming and disciplining the militia (the respective states training them, and appointing the officers) — for calling them forth when wanted, and for governing them when in the service of the union — for the sole and exclusive government of a federal city or town, not exceeding ten miles square, and of places ceded for forts, magazines, arsenals, dock-yards, and other needful buildings — for granting letters of marque and reprisal, and making war — for regulating the times, places, and manner of holding elections for senators and representatives — for making and concluding all treaties, and carrying them into execution — for judicially deciding all questions arising on the constitution, laws, and treaties of the union, in law and equity, and questions arising on state laws also, where ambassadors, other public ministers, and consuls, where the United States, individual states, or a state, where citizens of different states, and where foreign states, or a foreign subject, are parties or party — for impeaching and trying federal officers — for deciding on elections, and for expelling members, &c. All these enumerated powers we must examine and contemplate in all their extent and various branches, and then reflect, that the federal head will have full power to make all laws whatever respecting them; and for carrying into full effect all powers vested in the union, in any department, or officers of it, by the constitution, in order to see the full extent of the federal powers, which will be supreme, and exercised by that head at pleasure, conforming to the few limitations mentioned in the constitution. Indeed, I conceive, it is impossible to see them in their full extent at present: we see vast undefined powers lodged in a weak organization, but cannot, by the enquiries of months and years, clearly discern them in all their numerous branches. These powers in feeble hands, must be tempting objects for ambition and a love of power and fame.
Are we now, over the last six years, seeing this commentary by the Federal Farmer coming to fruition? What was it that suppressed the arguments of those that could be noted as "seer's" – seeing what others could not see regarding the future despotism of the presidency? Could it be that the expectation of morality by the so called 'federalist' was key to keeping the Liberties of the Citizenry safe? Was the expectation that the those elected to hold offices in the new 'national government' would understand, even in a Hobbian Leviathan that their first order of accountability was to the God of the universe? Or, much like the present, was it collusion between the proponents of the new constitution, the money interest and the newspapers – being the media of the day?
Attached here is the link to the full article by the Federal Farmer XVIII and then a True Federalist that will invite you to think this through more intently. I will comment from Myself in a letter to A letter to Richard Henry Lee, December, 1787
The Session of our General Court which lasted six Weeks, and my Station there requiring my punctual & constant Attendance, prevented my considering the new Constitution as it is already called, so closely as was necessary for me before I should venture an Opinion. I confess, as I enter the Building I stumble at the Threshold. I meet with a National Government, instead of a Federal Union of Sovereign States. I am not able to conceive why the Wisdom of the Convention led them to give the Preference to the former before the latter. If the several States in the Union are to become one entire Nation, under one Legislature, the Powers of which shall extend to every Subject of Legislation, and its Laws be supreme & controul the whole, the Idea of Sovereignty in these States must be lost. Indeed I think, upon such a Supposition, those Sovereignties ought to be eradicated from the Mind; for they would be Imperia in Imperio (meaning One Dominion) justly deemed a Solecism (meaning an error) in Politicks, & they would be highly dangerous, and destructive of the Peace Union and Safety of the Nation. And can this National Legislature be competent to make Laws for the free internal Government of one People, living in Climates so remote and whose "Habits & particular Interests" are and probably always will be so different. Is it to be expected that General Laws can be adapted to the Feelings of the more Eastern and the more Southern Parts of so extensive a Nation? It appears to me difficult if practicable. Hence then may we not look for Discontent, Mistrust, Disaffection to Government and frequent Insurrections, which will require standing Armies to suppress them in one Place & another where they may happen to arise. Or if Laws could be made, adapted to the local Habits, Feelings, Views & Interests of those distant Parts, would they not cause Jealousies of Partiality in Government which would excite Envy and other malignant Passions productive of Wars and fighting. But should we continue distinct sovereign States, confederated for the Purposes of mutual Safety and Happiness, each contributing to the federal Head such a Part of its Sovereignty as would render the Government fully adequate to those Purposes and no more, the People would govern themselves more easily, the Laws of each State being well adapted to its own Genius & Circumstances, and the Liberties of the United States would be more secure than they can be, as I humbly conceive, under the proposed new Constitution. You are sensible, Sir, that the Seeds of Aristocracy began to spring even before the Conclusion of our Struggle for the natural Rights of Men, Seeds which like a Canker Worm lie at the Root of free Governments. So great is the Wickedness of some Men, & the stupid Servility of others, that one would be almost inclined to conclude that Communities cannot be free. The few haughty Families, think They must govern. The Body of the People tamely consent & submit to be their Slaves. This unravels the Mystery of Millions being enslaved by the few! But I must desist—My weak hand prevents my proceeding further at present. I will send you my poor Opinion of the political Structure at another Time."

Welcome to the Virus Encyclopedia of Panda Security.
Windows XP/2000/NT
RPCSdbot is a worm that infects only Windows 2003/XP/2000/NT computers. RPCSdbot exploits the Buffer Overrun in RPC Interface vulnerability to spread to as many computers as possible.
RPCSdbot allows hackers to gain remote access to computers, in order to carry out actions that compromise user confidentiality and impede the tasks performed. RPCSdbot installs a backdoor Trojan controlled via IRC, which allows the hacker to carry out the following actions, among others: run programs, delete files, launch denial of service (DoS) attacks, etc.
RPCSdbot spreads by attacking IP addresses, and exploits the vulnerability mentioned above to download a copy of itself to the compromised computer. In order to do this, RPCSdbot incorporates its own TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) server.
If you have a Windows 2003/XP/2000/NT computer, it is highly recommended to download the security patch from the Microsoft website. Click here to open the patch download web page.
A clear indication that RPCSdbot has reached the computer is that the network traffic increases on the TCP 113, 135 and 4444 and UDP 69 ports.

A key part of the safari experience are the twice daily game drives. At Simbambili Game Lodge up to nine people pile into two open air Land Rovers each with an experienced guide and tracker.
We needed sharp eyes to see the things hiding out there. Here we found a shy buffalo grazing away in the distance.
On our first drive, we dropped off the bird photographer at a private plane on a dusty airstrip.
Pierre was fearless in his driving and would follow leopards and other animals into the bush as allowed (i.e., you can't follow rhinos off road). I thought all the noise of the vehicle would scare the animals away. However, the animals are used to seeing the game drive vehicles around and just went about their business paying us no attention.
At night, Service would use a spotlight to help spot animals based on the tell-tale reflection from their eyes.
Others that had been on safari a few days before us were regaling us with tales of leopards, fighting giraffes, and cheetahs doing a tap dance (just kidding on that last one). We were starting to get a bit concerned that we'd come all this way and we weren't going to see anything of consequence. Fortunately, we were wrong. Our last game drives picked up considerably. We saw wildebeest.
...hyenas that refused to make way for our vehicle.
...elephants...and more.
Sure enough, on one such instance, we got to see a few juvenile male lions roaming on the open plain.
There were accompanied by their battle scarred 'granny' as Pierre called this feline lady.
...and even a type of mantis (not sure if he's the praying type) who sat patiently on my finger.
I'm now going to devote individual posts to celebrate the different species that we saw in more detail.

Saturday 26th October
The low expectations for soaring opportunities, expressed by the pessimists at the morning briefing, were dispelled very quickly after a few flights. Although the conditions changed constantly, with large blue holes appearing and disappearing, the lift remained almost all day. A few pilots managed to get to over 10,000ft keeping an anxious eye out for the changing cloud cover and most flights were blessed with soaring opportunities.
The photographs below sum up the changeable conditions experienced throughout the day:

Hopes for more good flying were realised on both Monday & Tuesday. Whilst on Monday the tows were rough the rewards made up for those few exciting minutes. By the end of the day there were several Gold and Diamond height claims pending. There were some problems with calibration charts being left at home and dealing with SLMG traces but we hope these will be resolved and succesful claims will result. A trip South was organised to get several Oxygen cylinders re-filled ! On Tuesday the wind moved slightly more to the West producing more wave but with it appearing a little further South. The longer tows slowed things down somewhat but were much smoother than Monday's. The wave also proved rather changeable. Every time you looked around the wave had moved. As a result the flight times and heights were more variable but there were still some great flights. An annual refresher flight taking 2h 45m and reaching 10,400' must be some kind of record !
|Some of the visitors' trailers. What's in the box ?
This week has stood out, apart from the sheer number of visitors, by virtue of the variety of gliders including the very smart HpH Shark and the JS1 Revelation. Several DG 800 SLMGs have demonstrated very impressive take offs and climbs - not at all what most people would think of as a normal motor glider take off but the sheer number of trailers defeats a normal camera lens. The rigging area, above, was full, along with the area behind the hangar and with gliders parked along the boundary to the South of the rigging area.
Wednesday and Thursday have been spolit by high winds and heavy showers but we hope we may get some more flying to end the week.
Sunday 6th October
A stranger to gliding might have wondered what was going on in the Clubhouse on Sunday morning - the start of Harrod's sale ? Free beer ? The club room was packed, with our next group of visitors, mainly from Sutton Bank and the Long Mynd. I' m sure we had more aircraft movements than Newcastle International Airport ! The tows were rough but by 1000' I'm sure we were in wave but pulling off at 2000' we were straight into 2 - 4 kts. The 2 seaters were all in action giving site / aero tow refresher flights which seemed to impress as they all went to between 7500' & 9500' with climb rates of 6 - 8 kts being reported. Meanwhile John Brown soared to well over 9000' to gain a comfortable Silver Height - congratulations John ! We await a final tally of the high flights but certainly there were some over 11,000' and the wave box was opened in anticipation. Hopefully the next few days will produce some more Milfield wave.
Gold 'C' in Spain
Well done to Helen Fraser, an instructor at the club, who did a 329km flight at 91kph in moderate Spanish weather dodging storms etc. to achieve a Gold 'C' in Feuntemilanos on Aug 15th in a Discus.
Buckminster Flying Week
We will update this blog as the week goes on but it's been a good week so far.
Sunday. After Saturday's wave, with the wind in the same direction we had expected a similar day on Sunday. But this is Milfield ! We had quite a low cloudbase but thermal streets stretching from horizon to horizon. Most of us tramped up and down fairly close to the site but one intrepid visitor flew nearly to Alnwick then ran downwind to Whiteadder reservoir in the Lammermuir Hills before returning to site, a trip of around 140km.
Monday started with the same wind direction but rather scrubby clouds which, on the first launch, didn't produce any lift. We stopped for lunch but, suitably refreshed and chatting in the garden, we noticed the sky clearing in the valley. It was suggested, to one of our visitors with an SLMG that this was wave and he might like to go and test our suggestion. He duly took off and shortly was reporting 4 knots of lift. A rush then ensued with a further 9 gliders taking off. At the end of the day there were several postings on the National Height Ladder, best being just over 16,000'. When we were all finished sunset looked like this !
Tuesday looked similar with the duty instructor being greeted by this view from the Hurricane room.
Sadly, after 4 launches the gap closed but 3 of those lucky enough to launch reached around 9000'
Sadly, after 4 launches the gap closed but 3 of those lucky enough to launch reached around 9000'
Wednesday was spoiled by low cloud so no flying.
Thursday looked as bad and the forecast gave little hope of flying but, as briefing commenced there appeared to be some signs of wave at the mouth of the valley. We had no sooner started to get the first gliders to the launch point when spots of rain were felt. They came and went and it was decided to 'give it a go'. Just as well ! Between 11am and 1pm we did 10 launches with the worst flight being a mere 1hour 10 minutes, getting to 6500' and the best reaching 11,500'. The last to land came down through rapidly deteriorating visibility and, shortly after everything was packed away it started to rain. Apart from around Milfield, and the Tweed valley between Kelso and Coldstream , it appeared that everywhere else was experiencing rain. A visitor en-route to Aboyne (mad fool !) almost decided to stay after experiencing our wave. He had to call at Portmoak on the way past but was dismayed, looking at their webcam to see rain and huge puddles.

Q: Does it violate the FLSA to require a salaried, exempt employee to clock in and out?
A: No, it doesn't violate the FLSA to have an exempt employee clock in and out. However, it is recommended that employers have a business reason to track an exempt employee's hours. For example, an employer may opt to track an exempt employee's hours for purposes of client billing, grant tracking, intermittent FMLA leave or sick leave, hours-based benefits calculations, or paid time off benefits.
Should you choose to track the hours of your exempt employees, you'll want to be careful about how you use this information. Keep in mind that while you can hold an exempt employee to a schedule, the FLSA's salary basis test states that these employees are paid a set salary no matter how many or few hours they work. Reducing an exempt employee's salary based on hours worked may result in the loss of the exemption, a wage and hour claim from the employee, or even a DOL audit. Pay may be reduced in certain circumstances, however, such as a full-day absence for personal matters, or a full-day absence for sickness if a bona fide sick leave plan is offered and the employee has already used all of their paid sick leave.
To prepare for the FLSA overtime changes slated to take effect December 1, we recommend that employees who may become non-exempt start tracking their time.
It will be useful for employers to see the number of hours each employee works so they can compare the cost of keeping them exempt (which may require a raise) versus paying them overtime if they continue to work the same number of hours after being reclassified as non-exempt.
For help in calculating the hourly rate of your current exempt employees who may be affected by the new overtime changes, download our free Upcoming FLSA Overtime Changes guide. It includes examples and advice on how to address the new overtime rules with your own employees.

Mark Gurman has a major scoop about the next iPhone:
Apple Inc. plans to transform the way people use its next high-end iPhone by eliminating the concept of a home button and making other adjustments to a flagship device that's becoming almost all screen, according to images of the new device viewed by Bloomberg News and people familiar with the gadget.
The home button is the key to the iPhone and the design hasn't changed much since it launched in 2007. Currently, users click it to return to the starting app grid that greets them multiple times a day. They hold it down to talk to the Siri digital assistant. Double click it and you get multitasking where different apps screens can be swiped through like a carousel.
Apple is preparing three new iPhones for debut next month. One of the models, a new high-end device, packs in enough changes to make it one of the biggest iPhone updates in the product's decade-long history. With a crisper screen that takes up nearly the entire front, Apple has tested the complete removal of the home button - even a digital one - in favor of new gesture controls for tasks like going to the main app grid and opening multitasking, according to the people and the images.
I don't really dwell too much on iPhone rumours, but this one is an exception because one, it's about a major change to the core user interaction model of iOS and the iPhone, and two, I happen to know this rumour happens to be accurate.
The removal of the home button and replacing it with what is effectively a gesture area is probably the single-biggest user interface change in iOS since the day it was released, and it also happens to be yet another step in the enduring quest Android and iOS are on to become more like webOS. Steven-Troughton-Smith (go support his work!) showed a number of mockups to give a better idea of what it's going to look like.
Replacing the iconic home button with a gesture area is actually a pretty fundamental shift in the interaction model of iOS. It seems to indicate that Apple is confident enough that users are well-versed in touch interfaces enough to start "hiding" important, crucial interactions - like going back to the homescreen - behind gestures that are clearly less discoverable than that huge home button. Google did something similar - but far less consequential - by removing the "drawer" button in Android's dock with a swipe-up gesture.
If this trend persists, it would seem Apple's (and to a lesser extent, Google's) engineers think that the touch paradigm is old and established enough to be more abstract, which opens up a whole slew of other possibilities. Up until now, undiscoverable gestures were generally used for more power-user oriented interactions, but with this next iPhone, they will be used for basic, cornerstone iOS interactions.

I'm never going back to iPhones, iPads, or anything else similar. Quite frankly tactile buttons are far easier to use without looking than on-screen bull**** controls. I'd much rather have more buttons than less. I find my phone less and less the focus of use as it turns more i-craptastic.
I owned a calculator as a teenager with a mini-joystick that was capable of only four directions, but survived a decade of abuse mashing it mercilessly as I played the built in games. Atari has paddle and joystick controllers that were literally impervious if you had the originals and not the knockoffs. And Nintendo's NES had controllers that are still functional after 25 years. But high quality vendors like Apple can't seem to fashion buttons that last more than two years of regular use using far greater manufacturing technology. So instead of fixing the buttons they opt to eliminate them.
I miss the old on-off dials for electronics where you had a distinct click for off. I'd like to see one on my phone instead of clicking a button or worse yet having to go through several menues to get it on mute. I also wouldn't mind a second dial with no limit in any one direction that could be used to scroll, like on a mouse and would double for a steering wheel with games. And I wouldn't mind a series of buttons that could be used for gaming. I've seen attachable devices that bring those functions to Android phones. Too bad they aren't built in by design. Instead of a slide out keyboard, a slight out gaming controller would rock.
But Apple in its collective wisdom wants to make gaming on iPhones and iPads even more suck by going buttonless. Their crappy interfaces already is long in the tooth and they continue to push the most suck features as the future. And their penchant to make third party adapters obsolete with every generation just insures I won't waste my time going back. Even my Windows tablet is less suck in comparison to iPad, and that says a lot.

Rock and water provide a moving meditation. On any traverse we are supported: solidity and gravity, buoyancy and fluidity. Their relationship is ancient. They are an odd couple: one recording the passage of time, one eschewing it; one stalwart and the other mercurial. They combine their strengths in a constant exchange of interdependent movements seen and unseen – molecular, tectonic, tidal and volcanic. This pair appears in all my images. Under their influence I feel exuberantly happy creating work that is map-like but an antidote to the flat graphics of the GPS. In intention the images are most closely related to ancient Chinese scholars rocks with their inherent invitation to travel on their surfaces and commune with the wild. Rock and water have the quality of everlastingness. Yet reading Stephen M. Meyer's book The End of the Wild forces me to think on impermanence and the irretrievable. I sense my own need to atone. My work is homage to the wild. While we might not encounter the true wild, we can commune with the unexpected as with a thrilling journey and that turning around yet another bend. I hope viewers will be enticed to look at my work in this spirit.
Rhonda Smith's exhibits include: Walking on Rock and Water, a solo show at the Hampden Gallery, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, 2017; Schemata, a two person show at the Chandler Gallery Maud Morgan Arts, Cambridge, MA, 2016; And There Was Matter, a solo show at Kingston Gallery, Boston MA, 2014; Fragile Navigation, a four person exhibit at Danforth Art Museum, Framingham, MA, 2012; and Particles and Waves, a group exhibit at Iliad Contemporary, NY, NY, 2012.. She works in Boston and southern Maine. Her work is in many corporate and private collections. She received a BA in Fine Arts from St. Lawrence University, Canton, NY and further education at the School of Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, MA and the Cooperativa Mosaicisti, Ravenna, Italy. She was a 2013 fellow at the Vermont Studio Center.

As a Buyer, how do I compete in this Multiple Offer World?Many times we are seeing multiple offers on homes. Low inventory (not many homes on the market) and lots of people moving to North Texas caused buying a home very competitive!
I have said this before but we are in a SELLER'S MARKET! Let me explain;
– Even though homes prices have risen we are still considered to be reasonably priced
– People are moving here. McKinney will double in size in the next 10 years. McKinney used to WAAAAAY out there.The Metroplex continues to expand.
– Businesses are moving here creating jobs and the people follow. Coca Cola, State Farm, Toyota, Fannie Mae, The OReilly Home Team. Businesses love pro-business Texas.
This has created a total seller's market. It is not easy being a buyer in this market. It is hard but not impossible and we believe this is the time to buy before we see a 31% increase that Forbes predicts for out area in the next 3 years.
How do You Compete?!
1) Put in your best offer first. This is not the time to low ball. We will run the numbers for you to see how the home is priced to protect you. If it is close to what the sales says the home is worth put in your best offer.
2) Be prepared to pay list price or over. The values are going up every month. Homes are selling over list due to the competition.
3) Offer to pay the Title Policy. Sellers normally pay this and this could lean them toward your offer.
4) Be fully approved by your lender. Most people are pre-approved. To be fully approved you must meet with the lender and get all the information they need now. Being fully approved makes you look stronger.
5) Prepare to move fast to lock down the contract. There are ways for us to protect you and ways out of the contract and we will PROTECT you. Once it is locked down, we will have time for inspections and whatever else you want to do. But we must lock it down.
6) Use the OHT. Together we have 14 years of experience and we will get it done!
