Hey, Mate!
Yesterday I noticed in Deek Deekster's video blog from London that he greeted a guy working in the park with, "Hey, mate!" The friendly, British sound of it was in my mind when a few hours later I found myself standing next to a nervous-seeming young Brit in line at Dunkin Donuts in North Station, Boston. On a hunch, I said, "Hey, mate! Where are you from?" He gave me a startled smile, then a big grin and said he was from England, in the States on holiday. We chatted about the exchange rate for a few moments, then I wished him well on his trip as we parted. I headed for my train enlivened by a sense of connections, from Brit to Yank, from electronic social network to in-the-flesh hospitality.

Meet Deek Deekster
On the regional train to Boston, which makes many more stops than the lickety-split Acela, I'm enjoying the fuzzy edges of my thinking after a night of fewer than four hours of sleep in Lancaster. I stayed up late doing a Video Pod Chronicles episode, then spent the usual amount of time too wired to sleep, replaying the vid numerous times, admiring the little details that make it pleasing to me, like using fade-in transitions to move between one speaker and the next.
In this mellow mood, I was particularly struck by a video blog I came across from a Twitter friend, podcaster and blogger, Deek Deekster, of the Islington section of London. It's a simple creation, with no music, no titles, none of the things I hold to be so crucial in my own podcasts. But it drew me all the way to the end, about 20 minutes. Deek comes across as a grumpy guy who thinks too much, so I can relate to him. The video is shot on a walk through Islington, which he alternately likes and dislikes as a place to live. He shows us someone doing a yoga pose, an example of what he sourly calls "people doing healthy and dynamic things." He zooms in on cute dogs in a park, noting that a man walks a wide arc to avoid them, rightly fearing they could at any time turn into a howling pack of killers. The video made me laugh and made me think, about how all these pretty places in the civilized world exist in a kind of bubble that could burst by the agent of climate change, a grocer's strike, or who knows what. He's right, of course, but to cope on a day-to-day basis, I mostly avoid dwelling in such thoughts. It's still good to have them said out loud once in a while.
So this is New Media: raw and real stuff we'll never see--even on Public Broadcasting--completely unpredictable, original content being offered up into the cyber-commons every moment of the day from all over the world. Most of it unwatchable and worthless. Some of it sublime.

I'm approaching the END OF THE second leg of my three-train trip from Old Orchard Beach, Maine, to Lancaster, PA. The Acela is threading its way through the congested areas outside NYC. I would describe the scene, but frankly I hardly ever look out the window when I'm riding the rails. I am listening to Leo Laporte's This Week in Tech #111, featuring my favorite geek heroine Veronica Belmont in her first official appearance as a Mahalo employee, preparing for the debut next month of The Mahalo Show, a daily how-to tech podcast which will, I'm sure, be a huge hit.
I've been working on my presentation tomorrow at the National Association of Independent Artists, practicing Hercules Randall's flying skills in Second Life, Twittering, uploading photos, checking e-mail, and enjoying a First Class breakfast of French Toast and strawberries. It's been bliss.
Whenever I prepare for a train ride, I imagine that I might actually sit and look out the window. But it never happens. I take in the motion outside the windows as background for my electronic travel. It's different on a train, even when I'm doing exactly the same things as I do on my MacBook Pro in a cottage or a condo. The fact that my body is hurtling through space changes the experience of moving around the Internet. I don't know why. I imagine that when I first fell in love with trains, riding the Santa Fe Chief from Pampa, Texas, to Chicago en route to Boston, I was reading kids' books or playing a puzzle game or doing something. My nickname as a boy was Lennie Energy. The active little guy is alive and well, about to turn 57 the day after tomorrow (thus the treat to myself of upgrading to First Class today.)
All Aboard!
UPDATE: The ride through Pennsylvania countryside reversed my focus of attention. The late afternoon light turned the green leaves luminous, as if the light was coming from inside. Lancaster's train station had an historic feel, with a long hallway and tall windows taking me over the tracks to the terminal. I'm exhausted, settling into the Eden Resort Inn. Yahoo Maps says I could have made it here four hours earlier by car, but what would have been the fun of that?

DO Jump!
same time that their "real" counterparts are hanging at the Hilton in Chicago, site of the Second Life Community Convention this weekend. On Artropolis, I met Esch Snoats, one of the creators of Artropolis, and Gracie Kendal, an artist with a studio there. Esch is going to meet me in SL at the start of my talk on August 29th at the National Association of Independent Artists (NAIA) meeting of art fair directors. If all goes well, I'll introduce the audience to Hercules Randall standing on the roof, and Herc will then fly down into the first floor of the hotel to meet Esch and talk to him about his art and what this all might mean for art fairs in the world as we know it. I've been practicing flying and other moves, because I want this all to look easy and plausible to the art fair directors.
It's really fun, I have to admit, even as I understand how ridiculous it sounds when I try to explain Second Life to civilians, as I did at supper tonight with my parents, who are 78 and 80. What floored my wife was when I admitted I had spent about $2 in hard money (500 Linden dollars) to buy a new blue suit for Hercules, so he'll look sharp for the NAIA.
I'm not going to linger long in Second Life at the Lancaster presentation, but I thought it would be a fun way to kick off my hour of technological speculation and tips. I don't really expect to jump all the way into SL obsession once my NAIA gig is completed. But I'm having a ball in the meantime, and I'm gaining understanding why so many people on Twitter and elsewhere go in and out of Second Life as if it's just another way of being in the 21st Century. I'm learning that you cannot understand these new phenomena--social media, podcasting, Web 2.0, whatever--from the outside. You have to jump in and play, and even learn to fly, in order to appreciate the possibilities.

A Micro Media Mogul, I Presume...
On the putting green at the Colony Hotel in Kennebunkport, Maine, I posed this morning with Jim Long, aka newmediajim on Twitter, founder of Verge New Media and a veteran NBC News cameraman. I met Jim on Twitter, where he is a rock star for his engaging, intimate Tweets from home and his far-flung, fascinating work. Today he was doing live shots with John Yang, who looked spiffy as usual on camera in a polo shirt and dark blazer. What you didn't see unless you were standing on the putting green was that John was wearing shorts and was doing his live reporting in his bare feet.
Jim and I had a great visit, in between interruptions from his Blackberry, and I'll have a version of it up Wednesday on the Video Pod Chronicles. He is the second person I've met in person after a virtual introduction on Twitter, the first being the Boston writer and stand-up comic Baratunde Thurston. These moves from virtual to real are exciting, and as I drove from Ocean Park to Kennebunkport this morning, I couldn't help thinking of Stanley's first meeting of Livingstone. "Dr. NewMediaJim, I presume..." Instead, he spotted me in the din of the media work station as I stepped tentatively into a wild babble of voices, which today included French, because Nicolas Sarkozy, the French president, was visiting the Walker's Point compound for les hamburgers with the Bushes.
I admire Jim's skillful straddling of new and old media, and his determination to make a career for himself, eventually, in the new. His skill with a camera is painterly. He showed me how he set the aperture to create a gauzy, handsome background of the Maine coast behind John Yang, and it's no surprise that reporters at NBC jockey to have Jim do their camerawork. He also gets the power of new media and is creating an exciting new social network for the crafts community at CraftyNation.com .
I will remember in particular one bit of advice Jim offered, regarding how to be successful in the new media. Be genuine, and be nice to people. That's it. That's what it takes to gather a following on Twitter, or on your blog, or in any of the other virtual hangouts of the Internet. The genuine part is tricky, I find. We all divide our lives among the public, the private, and the secret. Being genuine online means taking risks in where you draw the line between the public and the private personas. Most secrets should remain secrets for sanity's sake and the good of the community. Jim Long is a good model of someone who has got the recipe right: a genuine guy sharing his interesting life with the world, and treating others with kindness and generosity.

Sweating It for the Birthday Boy
When the call went out for a special canvass in Portsmouth, NH, to celebrate Barack Obama's 46th birthday, I eagerly signed up, knowing I'd be within an easy hour's drive from Ocean Park, Maine. I joined about 12 other volunteers at the headquarters in Portsmouth and paired up with Will Gattis of Falmouth, a talented 19-year-old singer-songwriter who believes a change is needed, and Obama is the guy who can do it. "Like the bumper sticker says, 'If you're not outraged, you're not paying attention,'" Will told me during a break in our work. Our assignment took us to Dover, NH, and a neighborhood of well-kept, modest homes where [90 percent] MOST of the people on our lists were "NH" or "Not Home," according to the code which we entered on the call sheets. We left lots of flyers and each drank a quart of POWERade when we were half-way through.
One of my favorite encounters was with a man who was home and who said he is undecided on which Democratic candidate to support. He gladly took my brochure, and as I left he said, "Thank you for caring." That meant a lot, as I continued on my way dripping wet with sweat, stunned by the heat. I do care. And it felt great to help out in a very small way, letting people know about a candidate whom I believe might actually transform America's politics and standing in the world. I'm fired up, as the candidate likes to say.
I'm glad I will have plenty of chances to visit the Portsmouth office in the months ahead to help out in the crucial first-in-the-nation primary. Obama's New Hampshire organization is growing rapidly and seemed full of energy and smarts today in Portsmouth.
[Several] TWO of the staffers I spoke with said they had "gone to college in Boston," which usually indicates a Harvard grad unwilling to drop "the H-bomb" in casual conversation. Sure enough, they were fellow alums, going to work for Obama right out of the university where the candidate graduated from Law School. Barack explained the reluctance to mention Harvard when he appeared on the Jay Leno Show. Leno asked how come he had mentioned Columbia, where he got his undergraduate degree, but not Harvard. "Nobody likes a smarty-pants," Obama replied with a grin. Well, that's right. But I think the country may be ready for someone who has some smarts and can excel in places as wildly diverse as Harvard Law School, the South Side of Chicago as a community organizer, and the rough-and-tumble Illinois State Legislature.

Waking Up in Maine Again
The Hooper Cottage just before sunrise this morning was lit with its own glow from the porch. It's a summer cottage built more than 100 years ago, and it faces dune grass, sand, and ocean. We'll be here for the month of August, settling into the long-ago rhythms of surf and sand. This place is next door to the one my great-grandfather Skelton purchased for his wife in the 1930s, which later was the place my parents honeymooned. So I like to say I've been coming here since before I was born.
Other photos from this morning are up in my Flickr set of Ocean Park.

Friday's Weekly Round-Up – 150
Kill Your Darlings – We mentioned last week the dissenting position, eloquently voiced by Bob Rosenthal in his post from last February – here. – "The film takes its..title too seriously", he wrote then. "The large fabrications in the film are not so worrisome as the small ones. In any case, when the truth is stepped on and the nuance of truth is denied, the message becomes moribund". Both Marc Olmsted in Sensitive Skin and Brian Hassett in Brianland have taken up the cudgels and gone, perhaps, … Read More

This is no ordinary barn, folks. This barn survived the Civil War which (if you are not up on your history) is really saying something. General Sheridan ordered his troops to burned every barn, mill, factory, and railroad in the Shenandoah Valley during the 1860s. sketch iphone 7 case Well, my friends, he missed one! Let's explore, shall we?
In the lower portion of the barn (which is built into the side of a small hill), the animals would come in to eat out of the elements. The farmer would walk behind the manger with bunches of hay and load the manger/hay rack. Notice the stone walls and timbers of the ceiling. iphone 6 plus double cheap rubber cover case How could anyone see such a barn and not want to explore? I could not resist.
The ladder (in the manger picture) leads to hay and wagon storage. Keep in mind that it is actually fairly dark and I did not have a tripod so taking this picture involved having the shutter open for a very long time. I tried to hold very still but the slight bit of blur is completely my fault. iphone 8 plus summer case Here's another picture of the ladder. *swoon* I just love wooden ladders in old barns. Oh, and the stone walls… perfection. The view from the upstairs of the barn is lovely, too. It overlooks the stream and fields. How frightening it must have been for the farmers living there during the Civil War. Surely they must have looked out that very window only to see smoke rising from barns and mills in the Valley… wondering when their farm would be found by Sheridan's men. Except that it wasn't. mustard iphone 8 case Thank goodness! Pictured above is the window taken from the ground outside. Having already claimed these outbuildings for my very own, I may have to include the barn, too. I could live there. Really. There's already a camper parked in it. Plenty of room! While R. and I wandered around taking pictures and geeking out over the barn, Katy and M. discussed jam bands, bluegrass, and music festivals. Not that I am not also interested in those things — but I had a barn to explore, by golly. glitter iphone 7 case gold R. and M. completely understand that particular dilemma and solve it by frequently filling the barn with live music.

Insurance companies are developing new retirement-income products in order to meet the need for predictable income. Brokerage and mutual fund firms are also offering helpful tools to assist people in calculating how to implement an annuity into their income plans. In the past, such firms rarely implemented annuities in retiree asset-allocation recommendations. Annuities can be effective for this purpose if they're the right amount for the right person.
With the average lifespan increasing, this is a true possibility for anyone. Not everyone completely understands life expectancy. Men who are 65 are expected to live an average of about 84 years. However, a woman who is 65 is expected to live about 86 years. While these averages are used by some people to determine how much to save for retirement, it's important to know that there is a 50% chance that life will exceed these estimates.
Some people choose to ignore the possibility of living longer. However, others protect their principal by limiting expenditures to four percent of savings annually. If a portfolio's values drop, this plan can fail. The reality of values dropping was seen in 2008. Longevity and market sustainability are unpredictable, so it's best to look for certainty elsewhere. There are several types of annuities to consider.
Longevity Insurance
These types of annuities are fairly new. They have a much longer deferment, which means the holder of the annuity usually starts receiving payouts at about 85 years of age. This is a favorite among academics because this form of annuity ensures that the holder won't outlive their savings. The best part about this type of insurance is that there is a big payout in the future for a small investment. Some versions of these annuities also have death benefits in return for a smaller payout. Since many people are uncertain about their longevity, this type of annuity isn't selling in large numbers. Despite statistical possibilities of increased longevity, many people feel they won't live to be 85. However, longevity insurance maximizes retirement income when people need money to pay for long-term care, medical expenses and specialized treatments. Although many people don't buy this coverage, it's a very small price to pay for a beneficial insurance against the expenses incurred by living longer than expected.
Immediate Annuities
These annuities guarantee stable income for the entire lifespan or for a specific amount of time, which is helpful for stretching retirement savings. Annuities pay a significantly larger percentage of the original investment than most retirement options do. To compensate for the high payouts, annuity holders give up principal access. Payments stop after death. Since there are downsides to these annuities, it's best not to invest everything in them. To determine how much to contribute toward one of these annuities, contact a personal agent.
Variable Annuities With Living Benefits
Variable annuities combine tax-deferred savings and insurance. Individuals in these plans invest in a mutual funds portfolio. However, the money isn't tapped for several years, which allows the investments to grow. These investments are also a stable source of income when the market is unstable. Variable annuities are expensive and complex. However, there are new simplified products available that are very reliable. Finding a good variable annuity may be much more of a challenge than finding an immediate annuity. Be sure to compare fees, read prospectuses and know the guarantees.
Each of these options can be very beneficial additions to a retirement plan. Since each individual's situation is different, it's best to speak with an agent at 314-351-HALO(4256) to determine the most optimal personal options.
* Liquidated earnings are subject to ordinary income tax, may be subject to surrender charges and, if taken prior to age 59 1⁄2, may be subject to a 10% federal income tax penalty. Guarantees and payment of lifetime income are contingent on the claims paying ability of the issuing insurance company.

Quick Step's Iljo Keisse underwent successful surgery yesterday to repair damage caused by a crash in training which knocked him out of the UCI Track World Championships this week.
The Belgian had been diagnosed with a simple broken collarbone after a training crash Monday in Copenhagen, Denmark. Examinations and x-rays in Herentals, Belgium showed his injuries to be more serious than previously thought. He also suffered torn shoulder ligaments, which had to reinforced with synthetic ligaments.
"The x-rays taken in Denmark and Herentals are just two different things," Keisse told the Belga news agency. "In Belgium the doctors found that in addition to the collarbone, my shoulder ligaments were torn. A very different diagnosis to the earlier 'clean break'. "
During the surgery, six screws were put into the collarbone, and he was given synthetic ligaments. "So the recovery period is now a lot longer than originally thought," he said.
For now, he has to rest. Only in four or five days "can I even think of riding my bike on the rollers." In the meantime, "the pain is seriously violent, but that makes sense after such surgery," Keisse said.
He will undergo another examination in mid-april, at which time he hopes to hear when he can start riding again.
Keisse, 27, was Belgium's top medal candidate in the Madison and points races. On the road, he rides with Team Quick Step.

Soylent 2.0
Use less. Do more.
ᴊᴜʟɪᴇɴ.- Tech enthusiast, future obsessed.Definitely a good occasion to try new Soylent (Café) flavours for a portion of your gift card!
Nick Abouzeid- Words at Product Hunt ✌I drink Soylent for breakfast every morning - super quick, fills you up, and it's actually healthy for you too. I can't say I'd recommend a 100% Soylent diet, but it's perfect as a quick pick-me-up in the morning. If you also like ☕ in the morning, try out Coffiest - it's Soylent with a shot of espresso inside.

How to stabilize P1NC-P1 element for unsteady waves simulation
Finite Element methods are highly compelling for numerical ocean modeling. On one hand, complex topographic features can faithfully be represented by locally increasing the mesh resolution and because there is no constraint on the mesh topology. On the other hand, the systematic use of local coordinates allows to avoid the classical singularity problem occurring at both poles with structured meshes. Our ocean model uses an efficient mixed finite element pair P1NC-P1 for the primitive shallow-water equations that did not support spurious oscillations (Hanert 2005). This pair is a good compromise between continuous and discontinuous Galerkin methods, and appears to behave rather well for shallow water flows. Moreover, the model consistently conserves mass and tracers (White 2007). In this talk, we firstly address the issue to solve problems on the sphere (and even on any curved geometries, in a more general sense). Any global coordinates system cannot be used, since it introduces poles and will generate singularity for the representation of all fields at poles. In a second part, we also adress the issue to efficiently and accurately the element pair P1NC-P1 where the compromise between continous and discontinous Galerkin methods does not allow to introduce a straighforward application of the usual approach used in DG methods. However, it is possible to use the same ideas to build an efficient method. We present some validation results with the benchmark test cases described by Williamson et al. (1992). It consists on idealized, but quite realistic non-viscous flows on the sphere. We are able to circumvent the singularity problems inherent to global coordinate systems typically encountered. We also demonstrate that accurate and stable results can be obtained with the stabilized version of the method. This new formulation appears to be quite more robust, stable and accurate than the previous implementations of the mixed finite element pair P1NC-P1.

New construction and renovations projected to improve energy efficiency and save money
Energy modeling for the new Creekside, Douglass, Emerald and Meadowlark buildings predicts significant reductions in energy use compared to the current buildings and/or compared with code-compliant construction. BVSD's Sustainable Energy Plan sets a goal of Zero Net Energy or Zero Net Energy Capable for new construction. Zero net energy means that a building produces as much energy through renewable sources as it uses. ZNEC buildings are designed to be as energy efficient as possible and to allow for the future installation of renewable energy generators such as wind turbines or photovoltaic panels. Deep Energy Retrofits were conducted on several other projects and are yielding equally impressive results. In particular, overall energy use at Broomfield Heights is predicted to drop by nearly 30 percent even though air conditioning has been installed in the building.

Middle schoolers get more play time on artificial fields
Students and community members alike will have more opportunity for exercising outside on new artificial turf fields installed at six BVSD middle schools. Because they are more durable than natural grass, the artificial fields provide more play time each day and throughout the year. The fields also use less water and chemicals and require less maintenance than natural grass.

What to do if your PC won't boot to your hard drive...
Note : this situation often ends in data loss, so pay attention and be very careful with what you attempt. If you are unsure, have someone with more experience try these things.
Note : there is absolutely no warranty against data loss.
Enter the BIOS of the PC and make sure that the C: drive is set to be the primary boot device. PCs from a few years back could boot to either the floppy (A:) drive or the hard (C:) drive. The PC was happy with either, or a "try one first then the other" scenario. Viruses came along, and it was no longer advisable to allow the floppy to be a boot device option - either on purpose or by accident. (Viruses found accidentally on a non-system floppy in the A: drive when a PC was booted would transfer themselves to the PC's hard drive to cause whatever damage they would cause.) Booting to the hard drive became the default, but could be changed. Modern PCs can also be made to boot to many other devices - including CDROMs, ZIP drives, and networks. The PC cannot know what is best and correct this for your PC. You must know, and you must declare it - by making, and saving, the appropriate selection in the BIOS.
Enter the BIOS of the PC and make sure that the C: drive can be seen in its true and full size. If it does not show up readily, use whatever utility there is within the BIOS to "find" the hard drive. Take whatever action to save the findings, and restart the computer. If the drive wasn't showing up - but now is - your computer should start normally again.
Note : if given a choice of hard drive sizes or layouts (i.e. Normal with such-and-such layout and x amount of space, or LBA with such-and-such layout and x amount of space), and you do not know which one to pick, pick the one that the BIOS itself indicates as being the correct choice. If the drive still won't boot after this and you chose LBA, choose Normal instead and try again. The problem may go away.
If the hard drive gets found, and your computer resumes normal operation - then this happens again after the PC has been off for a while, you probably need a new motherboard battery. The PC is "forgetting" the CMOS information it is supposed to retain when powered down.
If the drive can be "found" by the BIOS, but the PC fails to boot properly, it could be missing operating system files, or it could be missing partition or format information.
If it's just Windows that won't work, Windows can be fixed or reinstalled.
To see what you are missing, boot to a system disk (a floppy disk with the same operating system on it that the hard drive has). Try accessing the C: drive from the A: prompt. Explore subdirectories to see what's there, and try "typing" some files to see if they can be read properly.
Note : some drives are set up using non-Windows drive managing software. In the installation process, special boot diskettes should have been created to permit such a PC to gain access to the hard drive via the floppy drive. Trying to access a drive set up this way from a Windows system diskette will not work, or may yield strange results. If this is the case in your situation, you will need those special boot diskettes to see the hard drive correctly. If you don't know how the drive was set up, and you are prepared for data loss, then proceed on the assumption that the drive was set up without such software.
If you can see the drive, and you can see files, but the drive doesn't boot, the system files may be corrupt or absent. Use the SYS utility to copy these files onto the hard drive. Since these files occupy a specific location on a drive, they can safely be copied this way without overwriting any data or disrupting what's on the drive already. The PC may now work correctly again.
If you can see the drive, but you can't see files, or if exploring found files causes errors, the FAT table may be corrupt, and you are likely to lose data the more you explore. Consider your position - have you got your data backed up? Do you care if you lose your data? If there is something on the PC that you would like to get off it, can this be done - i.e. can the critical files be found, how big are they, can they be copied onto a floppy? If you really need your data, and you can afford it, go to a data recovery center to see what they can do for you. If you want to risk trying to get some data off the PC, go ahead. If you don't care, re-partition the drive, re-format it, and reinstall the operating system. If errors crop up during this restoration process, the drive is probably bad, and you should consider replacing it.
If you can't see the drive at all, (but the BIOS sees it) run the FDISK utility and look to see what the hard drive is set up like. If FDISK can see nothing, you may be able to re-partition the drive and format it again. This will cause total data loss, so proceed only when all other avenues of data recovery have been travelled. Since the drive had failed in the first place, this may not be possible - the drive may be bad. Lastly, you can try FDISK /MBR from an A: drive boot. This is supposed to restore the backup of the Master Boot Record from its isolated place on the drive, and may fix the situation.
Note : if you get errors during recovery and reinstallation of a suspected bad drive (bad sectors reported, program interruptions, etc.), forget it. Replace the drive.
If the drive cannot be "found" by the BIOS, you will never get the drive to boot. Proceed with the following :
With the power off, open the computer case and check the cabling inside - all connections for power and data transfer must be secure - restore power and have the BIOS look for the drive again.
If nothing still, the drive is probably bad. You can check this conclusion by installing an alternative drive known to be working correctly in the troubled PC to see if the BIOS can see it. If the alternative drive can be seen correctly, you can be fairly certain that the original drive is bad or dead. If the alternative drive cannot be seen correctly either, the problem lies elsewhere.
You can also check the suspected bad drive by putting it into a PC that is known to be working correctly. If this second PC cannot see the drive, then the drive is probably bad.
If the hard drive is bad, and it is still under warranty (typically three years with the drive's manufacturer) you can begin the process of returning the drive for service or exchange. You will need your bill of sale and information from the drive, including : brand (Fujitsu, Seagate, Maxtor, etc.), model, serial number, and date of manufacture. Contact the manufacturer by phone or email and arrange to return the drive to them. Manufacturer's track and authorize these returns with RMA reference numbers. Keep records of all contact with the manufacturer during this process.
Recent examples of RMA procedure (which may make you think about which brand you buy) :
Maxtor - required the drive be shipped prepaid to their offices in California. A replacement drive was sent out from their manufacturing plant in Malaysia. Process took two weeks.
Fujitsu - walked into Fujitsu depot in Mississauga, Ontario (on Matheson East, near Renforth) with drive, walked out in ten minutes with a replacement drive.
Drives are often replaced with newer, larger drives due to issues with availability. The Fuitsu drive mentioned above was replaced with a faster one of double the capacity. The warranty on the replacement runs only until the warranty on the replaced drive would have expired.
No manufacturer warrants against data loss. If there is information on the drive that you desperately need back, do not take your drive back to the manufacturer - take it to a data recovery center. The cost of retrieving data (when it's possible) is extremely high, so better hope that you don't have to do this.
If the hard drive is bad, and is out of warranty, you'll need to buy and install a new drive.

Senate Banking Committee Endorses AFP's Recommendations To Increase Charitable Giving
(December 16, 2004) In its interim report, released today, on ways to encourage charitable giving, the Senate Banking Committee endorsed several proposals recommended by AFP.
The report, titled The Public Good and Private Funds: The Federal Tax Treatment of Charitable Giving by Individuals and Corporations, (for the French version) is part of a comprehensive effort by the Committee to better understand the charitable sector. This interim report focused solely on tax measures affecting charities, but the Committee plans to issue a final report covering broader issues affecting charities on March 31, 2005 .
In the report, the Committee agrees with and endorses two key proposals that AFP recommended during a hearing last month:
- Elimination of the capital gains tax on contributions of securities to charities, including private foundations; and
- Elimination of the capital gains tax on contributions of land to charities, including private foundations.
'Canadians are accumulating significant wealth in the form of securities and land,' said Tad Brown, finance and development counsel for the University of Toronto and chair of AFP's Government Relations Committee, who represented the association before the Committee at the hearing in December. 'Many donors want to give this type of wealth away, but current laws don't make it very easy or attractive for them to do so. If enacted, these proposals would create significant incentives for donors to make these types of gifts.'
AFP also testified that giving incentives of this kind are crucial at a time when government funding for charities has decreased. In addition, many foundation and corporate grants are often so focused on programming that charities have little money to use on basic overhead and infrastructure costs. Therefore, new policies to encourage giving are needed, especially gifts such as donations, registered securities, and land, that can have a dramatic impact on charities.
'People give because they want to give - they feel a connection with the organization,' said Andrea McManus , CFRE, principal of The Development Group and vice-chair of external relations for AFP. 'However, there is much research to indicate that as gifts become larger, tax incentives do play a role in the decision-making process. Because gifts of stock and land are generally larger gifts, government tax incentives are critical.'
Capital Gains Recommendations
The Committee advised the federal government to take the following actions in the upcoming federal budget regarding capital gains taxes:
- eliminate the capital gains tax on donations of listed securities and ecologically sensitive lands to registered public charities;
- eliminate the capital gains tax on donations of real property to registered public charities (as long as mechanisms are developed to ensure that proper valuations occur); and
- eliminate the capital gains tax on donations of listed securities, ecologically sensitive lands or real property to private foundations temporarily for five years (provided that appropriate governance and monitoring systems are in place to ensure that private foundations are clearly operating in the public interest and that self-dealing will not occur), with a review after that time to determine whether the provision should be made permanent.
It is our hope that AFP will be given the opportunity to help the Committee develop the mechanisms to 'ensure proper valuations' of real property and the 'appropriate governance and monitoring systems' for private foundations.
Other Incentives and Proposals
In addition to these recommendations, the Committee proposed allowing donors to make charitable contributions for 60 days beyond the end of the calendar year for inclusion in that year's income tax return and allowing donors to carry back unused charitable receipts for three years and carry forward unused charitable receipts indefinitely.
The Committee also implemented less burdensome provisions such as eliminating the requirement for charities to issue charitable receipts for donations of less than $250 (unless specifically requested by the donor) and eliminating the requirement for taxpayers to file charitable receipts if the charitable donations they are claiming do not exceed $250.
Additionally, AFP recommended that the government create a nationally-sponsored day--National Philanthropy Day--to recognize philanthropy and encourage citizens to give and volunteer. Because the interim report focused solely on tax incentives, that proposal will be considered in the Committee's final report.
Overall, the Standing Senate Committee on Banking, Trade and Commerce was favourable to the charitable sector and even stated in its interim report that 'well-designed federal tax measures to support charitable giving must be - and must be seen to be - a priority of the government in the upcoming federal budget.' AFP is very encouraged by this position and by the Committee's decision to include many of its recommendations in the report.

More than 400 years ago William Gilbert said, 'The Earth itself is a great magnet'. Today, we know that it is also a great magnetic tape recorder. This work is a comprehensive, up-to-date textbook on extracting and using rock and paleomagnetic data in archaeological, geological, and geophysical applications.
Designed for students and professionals with knowledge of college level physics and some background in earth sciences, it describes both the theory and the practice of paleomagnetism, covering topics such as the basics of magnetism, geomagnetic fields, how rocks become magnetized, and the various ways of analyzing the magnetism of rocks. The book uses the companion PmagPy software package. There is an appendix that contains a brief introduction to Python, an easy-to-use, cross-platform, and most important, free programming environment in which PmagPy programs are written.
It should be on the bookshelf of anyone who calls themselves a palaeomagnetist.--Geological Magazine "Lives up to its title and does so in a manner that authors of modern science textbooks should seek to emulate."--Eos Transactions

About Halfbacks
We believe that the best way to play sport and be physically active is with a smile on our faces having fun. The only way children are going to continue playing, create healthy habits for life and develop their skills is if they enjoy the games.
Working in teams and as an individual allows your child to develop their personal skills. We create an environment that enables both fun and learning through a structured rugby based play program designed by qualified coaches and teachers.
We respect everyone involved in the Half Backs session, children, parents and carers and the other coaches. We nurture a safe and welcoming environment for all.
The fundamental movements taught at Half Backs will help develop your child both physically and mentally.
Half Backs provide a fun, active and engaging environment for children aged two to six to develop fundamental movement and social skills through rugby union themed games.
We aim to be the physical activity of choice, for children aged two to six, by providing professionally run, safe and educational early years development through rugby union in an outdoors setting and to be an active part of the local community both on and off line.

– We care about every child we train and see everyone as individuals. We work endlessly to improve our coaching styles to provide you with the best possible standards.
-We believe that being active outside helps develop healthier happier children.
Why choose Halfbacks to train your pupils?
Quite simply, because we understand the importance and responsibilities of working with children, and more importantly were very good at it. Our coaches are all accredited by the Rugby Football Union and are also experienced players and coaches. Were looking to expand our network of schools, so before making a decision, we invite schools to take up the offer of a free taster session, delivered during curriculum time. We believe that by experiencing our innovative teaching and coaching methods, your staff and pupils will see the benefits of Half Backs and will understand why were so many parents number one. Our courses are designed to capture children's imagination by introducing fresh ideas and games that develop their self-confidence and improve their co-ordination.
We teach children as young as two years old, all the way up to 16. Rugby has come along way since professionalism and or coaching methods are designed with that in mind.

We love parties!
Halfbacks birthday parties take the effort out of organizing party entertainment for Mum and Dad and make the perfect birthday experience for pre-school children. The one-hour party sessions include fun and varied, energetic rugby related activities and games suitable for both boys and girls, helping them work off all that party food! We provide the coaches, trophies, equipment, certificates, insurance and enthusiasm – you simply provide the children!
Quote from a couple of happy parents about a recent Halfbacks party:
"Excellent, the trainers were enthusiastic and had lots of fresh and fun ideas. My daughter really enjoyed herself and so did all her friends. I would definitely recommend this."
"James and his team were marvellous. It was good to have a party that was fun and original. I loved the attention to detail such as certificates and goodie bags."
"James loves rugby but most of his school mates play only football, so he wanted to have a rugby party to show them how much fun rugby can be.It worked ! Many of them said it was the best birthday party they had ever been to !The coaches were friendly, efficient and patient but most of all fun. The children responded brilliantly to all the challenges and really started to get to grips with the art of rugby and the coaches were very good at letting the children try out new things and get competitive. It didn't matter that we had different ages or that some of the children had never picked up a rugby ball before.For me, it was the easiest party we've ever had because the Halfbacks team did all the work….even supplying the cake.A hugely successful event and lots of very tired, but happy children afterwards!"

MONROE, La. (AP) - A high school football player and one other person have been killed in a wreck in north Louisiana's Ouachita Parish.
Louisiana State Police say the wreck took place Saturday afternoon near Monroe.
A news release says a 2004 Cadillac Escalade, driven by 63-year-old Howard Coleman of Monroe, was traveling west on Louisiana Highway 594. Police say it crossed the center line and struck a 2008 Honda Accord, head on. The Honda was driven by 17-year-old Dillon Neal of Monroe, and it was traveling east on Highway 594.
Coleman and Neal were killed, and a passenger in Neal's car was hospitalized.
The News-Star reports Neal was a football player for Ouachita Parish High School.
State Police say Neal was wearing a seat belt, but Coleman was not. An investigation continues.

Hello Everyone,
I am not getting solution, how to show synchronized activities between two lanes via BPMN 2.0 collaboration model.
Basically we have two different interconnected system like SAP and other IT system, and I wanted to model our process under which these two system belongs. So basically I have two lanes under one pool.
If I change something in SAP it automatically reflects or updates in other IT system. I can manage for one activity but there are lot more activities which updated simultaneously in two systems. Using data store option seem to be one solution. But do you have any alternative solution which make process model simple?
And finally, do we have any kind BPMN framework like camunda BPMN framework, where I can show top level process model, then operational process model and then to different backend IT processes for same process but in hierarchical way.
to answer your last question first. The only hierarchy BPMN allows is as follows: Use "Sub-process" in Collaboration diagram and detail the sub-process in the expanded process. In ARIS the details are modelled in a Process diagram, which does not allow Lanes (because the expanded sub-process symbol does not allow Lanes in BPMN specification).
So the way to go for your case - answering your first question - is: The task "do my update" is a single step in your process (why should it be two, since one does not occur without the other?). Model "do my update" as a sub-process. The detailed process contains two steps "Do my update in SAP" and "Do my update in the other system". These steps can occur sequentially (connected with a sequence flow) or simultaneously (not connected), whichever you prefer.
Note: In the collaboration diagram you only have one lane left. Consider using that for the role performing the update instead of the systems.
For higher level processes consider to use Value-added chain diagrams.
Another consideration: BPMN was meant for process modelling. So ideally "Do my update" should simply be an atomic service task and whatever orchestration is necessary to "do my update" should be part of the service specification, i. e. update in SAP, update in System B, update in System C. This way you don't need to change the process, when you retire System C. And this saves you all the effort of sub-processing where there is no real "process".
I got it, thank you very much.
One last question, I have to show process for modeltypes creation. We have 9 different modeltypes and engineers have to choose any one option out of 9 depending upon condition. Then engineer need to manage that modeltypes into CATIA software.
I have tried to create two lanes i.e. one for engineer and one for CATIA. and I used gateway to select one modeltypes out of 9 available options and rest process.
Could you please suggest any other method to represent such process presentation?
What is the difference between edit sub process and assign new model to sub process? Can I execute model with subprocess and assign new model with collaboration diagram option?
Thank you in advance.

Now Miss 3 comes with us on walks, it gets a little tricky when she's over it and we still have a couple of km's to walk. Although we have a child carrier, it really isn't comfortable and is very heavy. So after a look around, these are two new products I am going to purchase. They are for older kids, from 2-5 yrs old.
The Vaude Koala is a great and simple idea just for that bit of extra support at the end of a bush walk. It's a simple step into system and easily adjusts. It's about US40 and you can find it here, or here if you are in Europe/UK.
The other is the Piggy Back Rider, which also looks like a fantastic idea while they still have enough energy in those little legs and want to still feel part of the action with all the nephews and nieces we walk with. It costs NZ$119 including delivery right here.

More Stars Than There are in the Heavens ~ by Allen Kopp
I was scrolling through an article on the Internet called "Stars We Lost in 2016." About half of these "stars" who died during the year I never even heard of. A person who appeared on the TV show Survivor (which I never watched) in the 1990s is a "star." A person who once sang a song on the TV show American Idol (which I never watched) is an American Idol "star." A person that nobody ever heard of who appeared on a TV soap opera in the 1960s is a "star." An obscure character actor who had a tiny role on the TV sitcom Bewitched (which I remember watching on Thursday nights in sixth grade) is a "star." A person who applied Ellie May Clampett's makeup on the set of The Beverly Hillbillies is a behind-the-scenes "star." A director who directed several episodes of the TV sitcom Hazel in the 1960s is a directing "star." A high school boy killed in an automobile accident who used to play football is a high school football "star"—he was also a fourth or fifth cousin of 1950s Mouseketeers "star" Annette Funicello, so that makes him even more of a "star." A girl on the cheerleading squad in high school thirty years ago is a cheerleading "star." A sixth grader who won the spelling bee at his school in 1959 is a spelling "star." The undertaker who embalmed several famous show business people is an embalming "star." The TV bloviator who used to give the weather report on a local TV station from 1961 to 1967 will always be remembered in history as a bright and shining TV "star." A congressman who was in office for four years in the 1970s and hoped to one day be president will always be a political "star," even though nobody remembers him except his cleavage-on-display ex-wives and his illegitimate children.
In this celebrity-obsessed age, almost anybody can be a "star." It's one of those words that has become meaningless through repetition. If anybody can be a star, it doesn't mean much. A person who saves lives and expects nothing in return is really the "star." A person who goes into battle and dodges bullets so the rest of us can sit at home and be safe is the "star." A medical researcher who battles and eradicates disease and alleviates suffering is the true "star." A person who creates something of beauty from nothing and expects no recognition for it is the "star."
We live in a very silly age. The news cycle, which used to be limited to a few hours a day, is now twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. With all that time to fill, the news people often resort to throwing junk at us that isn't really news. Somebody's opinion isn't news. It's somebody's opinion. Speculation isn't news. What might happen or what could happen is not news. (Remember all the political talk during the summer of a "brokered" political convention? It didn't happen.) A Hollywood "star" who didn't get his or her way having a temper tantrum isn't news. The tacky and tasteless comments of a female "singer" of miniscule talent is not news. I don't care how many people idolize and worship her or how big a "star" she is or thinks she is, there are a lot of us who just want her to go away. All we want to see of her ass is of it disappearing —permanently—over the distant horizon.
So, you think you want to be a star? Just wait around long enough and you'll become one. If not a true "star," then maybe a "star" by association. It's not what you know but who you know that matters. Oh, and, if you somehow miss being a "star," you can always be a "star f***er." That's always fun.
