GM: Hybrid Drive A Good Fit For Pickups
In today's falling market for full-size pickups, towing capability is more important than ever, General Motors Corp. believes. And that, it says, is one reason for its recent four point gain in market share, to 42 percent, in the segment.
According to AutoTech Daily, GM figures more buyers will embrace the new hybrid-electric versions of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra currently being launched by the company. The new pickups are fitted with the same two-mode hybrid system — teamed with a 6.0-liter V-8 engine — offered on the 2008-model Chevy Tahoe, GMC Yukon and Cadillac Escalade hybrids.
GM says the two-mode powertrain,which has four fixed gears as well as a planetary gear that combinesthe output of the gasoline and two electric motors, is a good fit for the pickups. The additional gear ratios improve towing capacity — 6,100 pounds for two-wheel-drive versions of the Chevy/GMC pickups — including in all-electric mode at speeds up to 30 mph. Although towing capacity is down significantly from the traditionally powered counterparts (9,700 lbs for a 2wd extended cab truck), GM says its system provides more oomph than Ford and Toyota's hybrid trucks, which top out at 3,500 and 1,000 pounds, respectively.
Refinements also have been made to other parts of the pickups to better complement the hybrid system and optimize fuel economy, which is listed at 21 mpg in the city and 22 on the highway in the two-wheel-drive model, up 40 percent in the city and 25 percent overall compared
to gasoline-only models.
The 300-volt nickel-metal hydride battery drives the 42-volt electric steering unit through a DC-to-DC converter. In addition to recharging the battery, regenerative braking helps extend the life of the regular brake linings.
The 2010 pickups also get low-rolling-resistance tires. A new exhaust system is tuned specifically for the V-8's cylinder deactivation
system — which cuts cylinders under partial-load operation.
A new hydraulic shock mount on the cab helps reduce vibration. The feature also will be included in GM's non-hybrid pickups. In the hybrid models, the system is teamed with a new low-noise electric cooling fan for the battery pack.
Despite the benefits, GM expects fewer than 15 percent of its full-size pickup buyers to opt for the hybrid system. This compares to a 25 percent take rate for the Escalade hybrid, which GM says is one of the highest rates for a hybrid drive in vehicles that offer it as an option. The hybrid versions of the Tahoe/Yukon account for about 15 percent of Chevy/GMC full-size SUV sales.
The two-mode hybrid system was developed in partnership with DaimlerChrysler and BMW. Chrysler briefly offered the system in the Durango and Aspen before killing both vehicles in the face of the company's economic woes. BMW will launch its version in the new X6 crossover later this year. GM also plans to offer the system in the Saturn Vue, although the program has been delayed and is somewhat questionable considering the future of Saturn itself is in jeopardy.

For Immediate Release
Miyoko Sakashita, (510) 845-6703, firstname.lastname@example.com
Suit Will Be Filed to Protect 83 Corals Threatened by Global Warming, Ocean Acidification
SAN FRANCISCO - The Center for Biological Diversity has formally notified the
National Marine Fisheries Service of its intent to sue the agency for its
failure to respond to a petition
seeking to protect 83 imperiled coral species under the Endangered Species Act.
These corals, all of which occur in U.S. waters ranging from Florida and Hawaii
to U.S. territories in the Caribbean and Pacific, face a growing threat of
extinction due to rising ocean temperatures caused by global warming, and the
related threat of ocean acidification. The Endangered Species Act requires
that the National Marine Fisheries Service respond to the petition within 90
days, and this initial finding is delinquent.
"Within a
few decades, global warming and ocean acidification threaten to completely
destroy magnificent coral reefs that took millions of years to build," said
Miyoko Sakashita, oceans director at the Center for Biological Diversity.
"Timing is of the essence to reverse the tragic decline of these vitally
important reefs, and we can't afford any delays in protecting corals under the
Endangered Species Act."
have warned that coral reefs are likely to be the first worldwide ecosystem to
collapse due to global warming; all world's reefs could be ruined by 2050. When
corals are stressed by warm ocean temperatures, they are vulnerable to
bleaching and death. Mass bleaching events have become much more frequent and
severe as ocean temperatures have risen in recent decades. Scientists predict
that most of the world's corals will be subjected to mass bleaching events at
deadly frequencies within 20 years on our current emissions path.
ocean acidification, caused by the ocean's absorption of carbon dioxide,
impairs the ability of corals to grow and build their protective skeletons.
Therefore, global warming and ocean acidification are an overriding threat to
coral reefs that have already experienced population declines from threats such
as destructive fishing, agriculture runoff, pollution, abrasion, predation, and
coral biologist Charlie Veron warned in a recent scientific paper that at
current levels of CO2 in the atmosphere (387 ppm) most of the
world's coral reefs are committed to an irreversible decline. Other scientists
have warned that CO2 concentrations must be reduced to levels
below 350 ppm to protect corals and avoid runaway climate change.
coral conservation crisis is already so severe that preventing the extinction
of coral reefs and the marine life that depends upon them is an enormous
undertaking. The Endangered Species Act has an important role to play in that
effort," added Sakashita. "But without rapid CO2
reductions, the fate of the world's coral reefs will be sealed."
under the Endangered Species Act would open the door to greater opportunities
for coral reef conservation, as activities ranging from fishing, dumping,
dredging, and offshore oil development, all of which hurt corals, would be
subject to stricter regulatory scrutiny. Additionally, the Endangered Species
Act would require federal agencies to ensure that that their actions do not
harm the coral species, which could result in agencies approving projects with
significant greenhouse gas emissions to consider and minimize such impacts on
vulnerable corals.

June 15 - Amos, Outcast, Trouble Maker, Voice of God
Amos had a message that was unwelcome but needed. Since he was called to speak for God to a people who had grown fat on success given by God's grace, he knew he wouldn't be heard. But sometimes--perhaps always--the job of a prophet is to speak truth even in the face of ignorance and resistance. So, Amos spoke as God directed him:
"Hear what God had to say to us, Israel, and know that it doesn't make me happy to say it for it is a sad word for me, as well:
Sweet, lady Israel is falling and will not rise from the dust.
She will be abandoned by all
and will have none to pick her up in her hour of need.
For thus says the Lord God:
only one of every ten soldiers who leaves the city shall return.
This is what God has to say to us:
Seek God and live
but don't chase after Bethel,
place no confidence in Gilgal,
and don't entrust yourselves to Beer-sheba;
for Gilgal shall be cast away and Bethel shall fade from the earth
Take time now to seek God and to find life in the seeking
or know that God's wrath--which we deserve--will consume us like fire
it will devour our sin and we will catch fire with it.
Oh, you who turn justice to vanity!
You who bring the stain of sin to righteousness!
Remember the one who made the stars that others kneel before
who brings light into the deepest darkness
who brings the dark of night to even the brightest day
who commands the chaotic waters of the seas,
who bends their wills to serve His
Remember this one! The Lord is His name
who displays even greater power still against the strong
so that even the strongest of us are nothing before Him.
Those strong ones among us hate those who correct them,
they loathe the one who has the audacity to speak truth.
So, listen up, strong people and know that because you trample the poor whom God loves
and tax the have-nots to increase your wealth
You may have built a beautiful house like none other
but you shall not live in it;
You may have planted a gorgeous vineyard, but you will not enjoys its wine.
For God knows your many sins
and knows just how grievous they are--
Yes, God knows that you afflict the righteous and are bought by bribery.
God knows you push the needy aside in public and have no patience with God's beloved.
If you know what's good for you then you'll shut your mouth;
because there is plenty of punishment to go around.
Why not try seeking God and rejecting evil?
In doing so, you might live,
and the Lord God Almighty will walk alongside you,
just as you have already claimed--it's not too late!
Despise evil and love goodness,
and reclaim the healing power of justice performed in public;
If so, it's possible that the Lord God Almighty
might offer undeserved grace to the remnant left after God's judgment.
This is what the Lord God Almighty has to say:
The cities will be filled with wailing
and in the streets the word on everybody's lips will be 'Alas!'
Farmers will turn from their hard work to the harder work of mourning,
and those whose lips are skilled in lamentation will give themselves over to wordless grief.
The vineyards will be filled with the cries of the people
for God will pass through the people in judgment.
But, woe to those who anxiously await the day of theLord's judgment!
Who would want the day of the Lord's judgment?
It is a dark day--not a bright one;
it will be as if someone fled for their life from a lion,
and ran into the arms of a bloodthirsty bear.
or went into his home--a place of safety--and rested his hand on his wall,
only to be bitten by a snake.
Is there some joy in God's coming judgment that we might look forward to it?
Is there some silver lining to that dark cloud?
Don't you get it?
God hates--despises--the festivals of our people
God takes no delight in our solemn assemblies--in all our self-obsessed pomp!
Even though we lift up offerings and sacrifices in the name of ritual
God will not receive them.
We offer our best in mechanical repetition of past ritual
but God will not even look upon the heartless offering.
God won't listen to the noise we call songs of praise if our hearts are not in the right place
God has no time to hear beautiful melodies from darkened hearts.
You want to please God?
Then, let justice roll down like waters,
and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.

(not satire – it's the UK today!)
UPDATE – Good news. Perhaps as a result of all the negative publicity, Twitter has decided to reinstate the @UKJCP account. A failure for the DWP and a triumph for satire and freedom of speech.
After a FOI request, a DWP official has released a copy of the official complaint it made to Twitter which resulted in closing down a parody account on Twitter of the Department for Work and Pensions.
In the remarkable document, an official at the Department (Jon Woodcock, Brand Manager at Department for Work and Pensions) openly gives the reason for wanting to close down the account as "deliberate and malicious intent to devalue and criticise the work of Jobcentre Plus ….. UK government, elected politicians and the heads of large private sector organisations".
Here's the relevant section of the document, in which Mr Woodcock explains why the…

An Anglo-American reporter spies for three nations in the last days of Hitler's countdown to war.
John Russell, the journalist introduced in Zoo Station (2007), made it safely through one episode of triple jeopardy under the Nazis, and he enlarged his personal safety zone with the acquisition of an American passport on a trip west with his 12-year-old son Paul. At this point, he would be happy to stick to the sad business of reporting Germany's descent into the madness of another war. But the Gestapo have other plans for him. If he ever wants to see his actress girlfriend Effi freed from the prison into which she was thrown on a trumped-up charge, he will have to do the bidding of the secret police, transmitting phony intelligence to the Soviet Union. The Gestapo, of course, have no idea that Russell has brought back a little spy work from America or that his contacts with the Russians are colored by his emotional and intellectual sympathies with the Glorious Workers nation. Nor are they aware that Russell's best friend and former brother-in-law Thomas Schade has enlisted his assistance in tracking down a young Jew, Miriam Rosenfeld. Miriam's family sent her from their little Silesian farm to what they thought would be safety in Berlin with her uncle, Schade's employee. But the uncle never made it to the Silesian Station, and Miriam went off with a stranger. Russell's connections with the Russians, his search for Miriam and his assignments as the correspondent for a San Francisco daily send him to, among other places, Prague, the Rosenfeld farm and the ultra-Nazi stronghold of Breslau. Each task puts him at greater risk, but he has help from the increasingly engaged Effi.
A modicum of period tension, but the real pleasure is the close-up view of daily life in the darkening Reich.

Time for Wonderful
Summer is here. Its arrival brings longer days and hopefully more time for relaxation and fun. Summer is the season for graduations, weddings, vacations, camp and special projects. For many of us, it's a much-anticipated season because it signals a break from our more intense schedule.
I feel encouraged to enjoy the gorgeous, warm days even more. There are many opportunities to embrace summer's energy. Here is a list of things that make me appreciate this wonderful season:
- Wiggling my toes in the grass
- Walking along the river
- Cooking outdoors with family & friends
- Reading in the hammock
- Slurping down a slice of watermelon
- Smelling the scent of the freshly cut lawn
- Taking a day trip
- Drinking an iced tea with lemon and extra ice
- Wearing less clothes
- Visiting the ocean
- Indulging in a lazy feeling that a hot day brings
- Going to Boscobel for a picnic and Shakespeare play
- Watching fireflies light up the evening
We often feel like there is never enough time to enjoy our lives and accomplish our goals. The key is finding a balance between doing, being and appreciating. Summer is a great time to do some shifting and experimenting to find your right balance.
What lets you know that summer has arrived?

Epson signs new deal with Asian Football Confederation
The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) has extended its relationship with ink cartridge specialist Epson for four more years.
Epson has worked alongside the AFC since 1997 and Zhang Jilong, acting president of the AFC, said that he is "quite excited" about the news.
"Epson believed in the potential of Asian football and our alliance started in 1997. Epson's commitment is a testimony to the great appeal of AFC tournaments as a superior marketing platform," the representative added.
The new deal was sealed by World Sport Group, which is the AFC's marketing and media partner in association with Dentsu, with the endorsement covering all of the confederation's competitions, such as the AFC Asian Cup.
This agreement is not the only sponsorship that Epson has finalised in recent weeks, as the company has confirmed a new three-year contract with Manchester United.
As a result, the printing firm will continue as the club's official office equipment supplier.

Two explosions destroyed the peace in New Delhi on a busy Sunday evening, targetting two cinemas screening Sunny Deol's latest fare "Jo Bole So Nihal".
Director of the film Rahul Rawail is upset with the media and people for feeding rumours that the film is anti-Sikh.
Blasts are a conspiracy: Sikh group
"I myself am Sikh and I will never hurt religious sentiments of my fellow Sikhs," said Rawail said speaking to rediff.com News Editor (Entertainment) Syed Firdaus Ashraf.
"I feel it is a great tragedy that human life was lost and many injured for no reason when my film was running in Delhi theatres.
People are just spreading rumours about my film without even seeing it.
Sunny Deol to get police cover
They are saying that semi-clad girls are dancing with Sunny Deol. How can I do this? Don't I know what to portray and what not to portray in my film? I am a Sikh myself and I know what has to be shown when I am dealing with such a subject. The central character of my film is a Sikh and if I demean my character there will be no bigger fool than me.
I had taken all precautions to ensure that Sikh sentiments are not hurt.
'SGPC must move SC to ban film'
The censors cleared my film and I don't think anyone else now has the right to protest about my film. It is very unfortunate that people are protesting. The film has been cleared by the due legal process and we have mentioned that it is not a religious film.
Today millions in our country know the meaning of the phrase Jo Bole So Nihal only because of this film. I wanted the people of our country to know the meaning of this religious call and this name was my first choice for the film. It was a war cry and it is totally justified in the film.
However, it is very unfortunate that people lost their lives.
It is also unfortunate is that theatre owners are withdrawing the film. I think it is wrong. My film has not been banned by any government organisation. Still some theatre owners withdrew the film, resulting in losses. Collections have been badly affected because of the controversy.
The electronic media is to be blamed, because they immediately flashed the news that the blast happened in theatres because of the film.
Two hours after the blasts occurred, Delhi Police Commissioner K K Paul told the media that the blasts were not due to the screening of the film.
However the damage was already done and everybody started blaming the film.
Investigations have not yet been completed and already the film was declared guilty by the media. I think they should have acted responsibly in such a situation.
Another salvo came from the Shiromani Gurudwara Prabandhak Committee president, Bibi Jagir Kaur, who said only Sikhs should play Sikh roles in Hindi films. I feel it is very unfortunate statement.
If people start demanding such things, then in future it will be difficult to make films. A Muslim won't be able to play a role of Hindu character or a Hindu won't be able to play a Christian character. So far our film industry has not been touched by religious animosity and caste discrimination.
The film industry has so far remained above religious animosity and I feel if we start applying such rules it will be difficult to make films in future."

I'm writing a book on HTML5, including Canvas! Click here for more information.
Much of the functionality of Canvas comes from its path drawing functions. Unfortunately for game designers and animators, re-drawing paths over and over can amount to a tangible performance hit. To increase performance, let's take a look at caching paths as images to avoid redrawing them traditionally.
Gentlemen waiting for a path to finish rendering
First we need to ensure that caching a path will actually lead to a performance increase. We can devise a simple test for this using JSPerf. We need a path to test, so let's write something fairly simple.
ctx.strokeStyle = 'red';
ctx.lineWidth = 4;
This does not produce a particularly complex or exciting path:
But it will do.
The thing we want to ponder here is whether redrawing this path, in other words executing every one of the instructions needed to make the path, will be a slower process than if we cached it. We can achieve caching by drawing the path from these instructions only once, to an in-memory canvas, and then using drawImage from our in-memory canvas onto our real canvas to redraw the path.
That isn't the only way to cache. We could instead draw it to a canvas and then make a PNG out of it, and call drawImage from that PNG instead, but for the sake of making a simpler test we will stick with using an in-memory canvas.
So let us take all of the drawing instructions above and execute them on the in-memory canvas. Then in our draw loop, instead of drawing out the path every time, we simply draw the in-memory canvas to our real canvas:
// can2 is our in-memory canvas
ctx.drawImage(can2, 0, 0);
The test is simple enough. Giving it a go, the results are immediately clear: pre-rendering and using drawImage is more than ten times as fast as drawing the path, even for the relatively simple path used!
The more complex the path, the more time you will save with caching. If you're using a lot of complex paths to render shapes, such an optimization ought to speed up your draw loop by a great deal. The JSPerf page shows a simple setup if you want to make the test for yourself.
Other considerations
Pre-rendering paths isn't a magic bullet, there are still a lot of uses for drawing paths constantly in canvas. If you are making a live drawing application, or otherwise constructing dynamic paths and/or moving and animating paths on the fly, then any kind of pre-rendering is going to be nearly pointless or even harmful to performance. After all, what's the use of drawing something to a separate canvas and drawing that state back to the original canvas if the path changes constantly? You'd need to re-draw the in-memory canvas just as often, so you'd lose all benefit.
It is also worth mentioning that you might want to play around with using PNGs instead of in-memory canvases. Another thing to test is putting multiple paths onto one in-memory canvas versus putting them all in their own separate canvases, effectively making a sprite sheet. From previous tests, it seems that there is a slight advantage to giving each sprite its own png instead of using a single-png (or single in-memory canvas) sprite-sheet, but it wasn't that big of a difference.
If you do choose to use a sprite sheet, note that there are a lot of decent tools out there for compressing and organizing them, such as Sprite Sheet Packer.

IELTS Speaking band score 7 vocabulary
What vocabulary do you need to use to get an IELTS Speaking band score 7?
To show you have enough vocabulary to get a band score 7 in the IELTS Speaking test, there are particular types of vocabulary that you need to use.
These types of vocabulary are:
- less common vocabulary (i.e. words or phrases that are not frequently used in everyday conversation)
- idiomatic vocabulary (i.e. words or expressions that are natural for native speakers to use or that contain an idiom)
Watch the video below to see me explain how an IELTS band score 6.0 candidate could use some less common and idiomatic vocabulary to get a higher band score.
In the first part of the video, the candidate, Marie, answers some IELTS Speaking Part 1 questions. In the second part, I explain what vocabulary Marie needs to use to get a band score 7.0.
The IELTS Speaking Part 1 questions that I ask Marie in the video are from the book Cambridge IELTS 8.
IELTS Speaking band score 7 vocabulary: Less common vocabulary
As you may have seen in the video, the words 'loathe' and 'detest' are examples of less common vocabulary that you can use when you want to say that you really hate something.
A great tool for checking if a word is less common is the Macmillan online dictionary.
If you search for the word 'hate' in this dictionary, you'll see that it's written in red and has three red stars next to it. The three stars means that it's one of the most frequently used words in English.
Now, if you search for the word 'loathe', you'll see that it's written in black and has no red stars. This means this word is an example of less common vocabulary.
Check which of the following words are examples of less common vocabulary:
IELTS Speaking band score 7 vocabulary: Idiomatic vocabulary
Here's the list of idioms related to the topic of television that I included at the end of the video above:
- an armchair sportsman (someone who watches a lot of sport on television but who doesn't play sport)
- a couch potato (someone who spends a lot of time sitting and watching television)
- to be glued to the box (to be watching television and ignoring everything else)
- to channel surf / to channel hop (to keep changing the channel you are watching using a remote control)

Although it still enjoys support from a broad coalition, legislation to turn some foreclosed homes into affordable housing now also faces deep-pockets opposition.
Americans for Prosperity, an economic policy group launched by coal billionaire David Koch, is mounting an advertising campaign on radio and television trying to rally public opinion against the proposal -- Senate Bill S-1022.
"A lot of people don't even know this is happening, or the significant negative impacts this bill will have on our neighborhoods," said Steve Lonegan, the former Bogota mayor and gubernatorial candidate who is the state director of Americans For Prosperity.
He echoed the TV spot, which suggests the effect would be to "move in drug addicts, ex-cons, sex offenders, and homeless people."
"Any local official would have to be crazy to support this," Lonegan said of the legislation, whose primary sponsors are state Sens. Raymond Lesniak (D-Union) and Barbara Buono (D-Middlesex) and Assemblyman Jerry Green (D-Union).
The proposals' backers include the state League of Municipalities, the New Jersey Builders Association, the Housing and Community Development Network of New Jersey, the New Jersey Bankers Association, and other groups not often found lined up together.
Supporters said the criticisms reflect a misreading or misunderstanding of key provisions of the bill. At least, those who responded politely said that.
"There's a special place in hell reserved for Steve Lonegan," Lesniak said, repeating it with the admonition, "that's on the record."
The bills would establish a temporary agency, the New Jersey Foreclosure Relief Corp. Working through the state Housing and Mortgage Finance Authority for five years, the corporation would acquire houses in foreclosure and make them available to towns, non-profit groups, or private investors as low- and moderate-income housing.
In a time when New Jersey faces an estimated backlog of 50,000 to 100,000 foreclosure cases, as well as new ones, Lesniak portrayed the initiative as "a way to support property values and reduce crime by getting people into vacant homes, provide municipal tax revenues while stabilizing the housing market."
"It's based on the very successful model of the Resolution Trust Corp., which cleaned up the housing mess left by failed Savings and Loans during the 1980s by taking over and selling off their portfolios," he said.
The RTC, which was in operation from 1989-95, closed or otherwise resolved almost 750 troubled financial institutions in the wake of a previous housing bubble. This time, the economic problems have been compounded by related securities frauds, spreading the current downturn beyond the borrowers and lenders whose transactions were not adequately secured.
Lonegan said attempts to deal with the fallout from the most recent crisis have amounted to an expansion of government while putting taxpayers on the hook for private interests. The new legislation is "another bailout for the banks," he said.
"Every special interest in the state with something to gain is lined up behind this," he said. "But thank God the bankers association, the builders association, the realtors association don't run the State of New Jersey."
If philosophy is at the heart of the debate, the advertising thrust aims elsewhere. The TV spot zeroes in on an amendment to allow state agencies to acquire foreclosed properties for use as halfway houses, assisted living centers and other facilities for "special needs" populations.
In the language of the bills, that "means individuals with mental illness, physical or developmental disabilities, victims of domestic violence, ex-offenders, youth aging out of foster care, disabled and homeless veterans, individuals and households who are homeless, individuals with AIDS/HIV, and individuals in other emerging special-needs groups identified by state agencies. Individuals shall be at least 18 years of age if not part of a household."
That confers power to "take these problems to places across the state, to suburbs across the state," Lonegan said. "This is COAH on steroids."
The status of the state Council on Affordable Housing has been up in the air since Gov. Chris Christie tried unsuccessfully to abolish the agency, which the legislature created to remove some affordable housing issues from the courts. The situation has grown ever more complicated for towns, who now face a July deadline to spend housing funds, but no COAH regulations authorizing their outlays.
The foreclosure housing bill represents one step toward solving that problem, according to William Dressel, executive director of the New Jersey League of Municipalities. Local officials have not seconded Lonegan's concerns, he said. The ad campaign seems to be based on "a misreading of the bill," he said.
As for state agencies siting facilities around the state, "they can do that now," Dressel said. "Under this legislation, a town must agree to participate, to allow the use of its housing trust funds. So it's voluntary for them to be in it at all."
As for type of facility and location, state agencies "still would have to follow the local planning and zoning requirements," he said, adding the legislation changes nothing in that process.
The league is more concerned about the potential loss of affordable housing funds, and many local officials like provisions in the legislation, Dressel said. By designating trust money to acquire foreclosed properties, they could get a 2-1 credit toward their legal obligation to low- and moderate-income people.
Otherwise, when the deadline arrives, Richard Constable 3d, the acting commissioner of the Department of Community Affairs, "has already told us that he's going to take the municipal trust funds" for state use, Dressel said.
"This is money they set aside for affordable housing," Dressel said. "There's very little other money available. There's no help from the state. There's not even much help from the federal government."
"I'm never accepting the fact they force low-income housing on our communities," Lonegan said, faulting Christie for failing to deliver on his promise to abolish COAH.
"We can wish it away, but municipal officials still have an obligation to follow the law," Dressel said.
Lesniak said his approach would help municipalities not only by meeting affordable housing requirements, but by ensuring a steady stream of tax revenues. Towns could choose to administer rental units directly through their own housing agencies, or allow nonprofits or private investors to carry the ball, he said.
Those foreclosed homes that were resold would be deed-restricted for 30 years, which would effectively regulate future changes of ownership or tenancy, Lesniak said. Aside from having the corporation sunset after it shepherds the acquisitions, "this is just like any other affordable housing program," he said.
He suggested the "special needs" provision potentially allows the state to save money by enabling agencies to "take advantage of the opportunity" to acquire vacant properties at a low in the market. But the main provisions are aimed at keeping or putting people in houses that might otherwise sit empty.
That is a selling point for the New Jersey Association of Realtors, whose chief executive officer, Jarrod Grasso, released a statement calling the legislation "an excellent way to provide low-cost housing for working families without placing the burden on New Jersey's property owners." In some communities, it makes more sense to deed-restrict existing homes than to build new "affordable" units, he said.
Danielle Alpert, the association's communications director, said the group does not wish to respond to the ad campaign directly, but "we're still supporting the legislation."
The bill offers a 2-1 credit to towns, with each foreclosed house designated as "affordable" counting double toward its requirement under COAH. Although this could mean less new affordable construction, the New Jersey Builders Association endorsed the legislation, saying it would "stabilize housing prices" by reducing the potential wave of new foreclosures.

there's nothing to do with business use! y is it that teamviewer nowadays causing this issue???
Please fill in this form and wait for 3-4 months.

Good luck!

ME too!
Hi All,
May I know when will the limit being removed after ticket submitted?
I submitted the form two weeks ago, but still, the limit did not remove yet?
I apologize for the answer because it seems sarcarstic. The time to receive a response is somewhere between a few days and never.
Your most assured way to recover is to load a previous version (Is it version 9? Search this site.)
I've been using teamviewer for some years now. Connecting to my personal computer from work on my free time.
Recently, my free licence turned into commercial for no good reasons. I'm not able to use Teamviewer anymore. When I contact teamviewer for troubleshoot, they said I have NO CHOICE but to buy a licence... Paying 600$CAD /year for something I use 1 time per month without profit for personal use is out of questions.
I'm very disappointed with the turn the company has taken.
For everyone who is stuck with the new licence, I recommend **Third Party Product**. Work as well and free.
thank you
hi why commercial use ??? only my different private computer are in use .
Hello, I have a free account for private use and have seen this day my restricted use for suspiscion of commercial use, which is false.
I have several personal computers to which I connect and I help my parents and in-laws sometimes. This use remains private.
Could someone from Teamviewer solve the problem?
Thank you.
TeamViewer program show me a message that I have been used free license with comercial uses and this is false.
Mi userID is **Do Not Post TeamViewer IDs** and I connect to some Pc's sporadically.
I hope a response and a solution for restore my account because nowadays it is blocked.

Well of course we are in the same kind of situation.
I am using a laptop to connect to 8 machines, none of which run a OS server, on a home network (with no TV outgoing/incomming network connections), running BOINC for absolutely no gain.
And yet now we are seeing the dreaded 'commerical usage' notice.
I guess what is really sad is that many people including ourselves value this great product, and indeed would probably pay a small amount to use it - even though we are using it for personal stuff - however as of yet TV just instead ignore this key market and instead just offer subscriptions catering to business who of course can pay these upgrade amounts.
Even other **Third Party Product** providers are now realising this gap in the market, and when you leave/uninstall the personal version, they offer you a middle tier (non-public) product so you can continue, personally, but in a way that they gain money (normallly around $100/yr).
Hopefully TV will take a look at this situation, and instead of continuing with this existing path which is of course generating negative PR, instead offer a solution for those who are using TV personally, but for whatever reason is being flagged as commerical - as a solution from both sides. both ourselves, and of course TV.
Its obviously better to earn something from an existing user, than nothing from one who just left (and is highly frustrated and sharing their negative experience of TV across social media and other platforms).
Well, I didn't understand why all of the sudden people starting to complain again and fed this thread... now it hit me again: I usually connect to my home network (just 3 laptops) and seldom on 2 remote (my mother's and my brother's).
I just wanted to connect to one of the laptops in the home network and of course TV thinks that I'm using it commercially and I should buy it, which would be fine if there were a price adapted for home users (but they only target professional users with prices that noone would / could pay unless they're a company).
So I guess it's time for me to investigate for alternatives, because obviously the famous system of please reset my UserID usage doesn't really do anything.
It seems that TV started a new time of telling free users that we are using it commercially. A year ago I suffered it and finally my id was reset and was able to access my home computer again.
But today I got again the "commercial ue detected message" when I tried to access my home computer from my remote home. I filled the form they ask for, and I HOPE that it will be reset in no very long time....
Finger crossed, if not I will hve to go bck in my three computers to the Version 9 or maybe go again to my "old" **Third Party Product** application.
TV team, pleas, if you read this forum, solve our personal situations. Thanks
Same problem here :(
I've got the same problem, How do I create a ticket ?
Hi there,
Click on the following links to find more information about the topics and the link to request the reset of your TeamViewer usage:
Trial Expired:
Why do I see TeamViewer trial - 'Your trial period has expired' ?
Commercial Use suspected/detected:
Why do I see 'Commercial use suspected' / 'Commercial use detected'
All the best,
I am having problems with the connection with teamviewer, it tells me that I am giving it a commercial use, when it is not. I have several raspberry connected for use by radio amateurs meteorological program, etc ... Someone can help me. Thank you
Hello! I want to know whether you can use TeamViewer for personal purposes to connect to a remote virtual server, for example, rented to Amazon. The server is used to set up a trading terminal for automated Forex trading.
Hi all,
about 6 months ago I opened a ticket because, erroneously, it seemed that the use of my teamviewer was commercial. I made it clear that I use teamviewer only to help friends and relatives. Today I realized again this problem, which did not allow me to help a friend in need. Can you verify and reset my account?
Thank you
I am using Teamviewer at my home to connect to the laptop of my wife and doughters from my desktop. Yesterday I was flagged as commercial user and the connection drop out in 30sec. I dont know why. I have submitted the form with my logs. No response at all. I moved to **Third Party Product** (laggy but I can use it). Is there any way to have answer from TV team and to start over tu use TV again?
I am requesting help for a person who is disabled (quadriplegic paralysis). I recently viewed a question on Experts-Exchange.com, from this individual, and I feel compelled to try to help as much as possible. This person recently started to get pop-ups and is now blocked from using the software due to the frequency of his FREE version personal usage, which he needs due to his disability. He cannot afford to pay the subscription fee, and I am hopeful someone at TeamViewer.com can assist him with a license key. I've attempted to reach out to the VP and CEO of Teamviewer directly, and I am also posting here in an effort to get someone to see this and hopefully help this person. I frequently answer questions for people on Experts Exchange, ...which I do not get paid for btw. Hopefully someone can get this message to the right people and make this person's life a little easier.
If possible, I would like to put them in touch with someone at TeamViewer to assist.

Blocked because commercial use suspected. what does it mean ?. how can i establish connection with my devices ?. help me
I use the free version of team viewer for individuals but I always get a message saying that the trial period has expired, how can I solve this problem? Use windows 10
Fill in the form and wait!, Good luck!!!
Already done. Still waiting!
For the moment I'm using **Third Party Product**. At least I can access my PC. It's not as performing as Team Viewer, but it's totally free and it might become a valid solution if TeamViewer staff goes on in asking for a subscription in such and unfair and not motivated way.
Yap, Yap, Yap, Unsubscibe.
It seems that they organize this ******* once a year. I got the same problem a year ago and finally resolved it sending the form and being reset in a week.
Hope the work eficeintely and they solve our PERSONAL problems fast, because we use it for personal use, not commercial ad there is no need to go to another solution.
You should think as Msoft did... they didn't care about using their products at home (maybe sometimes "illegaly" copied) , it was a way to have all the people to ask to use it at work and it is in the companies business where Msoft got their money.... Just the error IBM did with their OS2 product that tried to correct... tooooooo late.
I use TeamViewer for personal use and for 1 week, when I log in, I have a message that tells me that I use it for business purposes and that I have to buy a lisence.
I can only log in for 1 minute and the connection turns off.
I'm fine remove the application of 2 pc that I use and then re-install the application, it's always the same.
How to recover my personal use?
Good morning. I only use a private and non-commercial use of Team Viewer, but a few days ago the system prevents me from using it because it mistakenly believes that it makes commercial use and connects me only for a few seconds.
I use it only to connect with another pc of my property and that of my elderly parents (83 and 90 years of age) to pay their bills and other similar things ...
These are my accesses ... what use is it if not private ???
Could you help me solve the problem, please?
Thank you!

With no reason I'm accused of using Teamviewer for business usage.
The software is on my personal laptop and I use it to get remote control of my personnal desktop unit.
The only reason I could think of it that my personnal laptop is registered to my company domain to be able to access to the company's network folders and printers.
Already sent an email but no answer...
ok it just happened to me too, i was connected to another laptop in the same lan, it instantly timeouted and then it locks me out for the next 10 minutes. So that's it good riddance TV, I'm right this moment starting to investigate what's the best free alternative for you.
Good morning,
I am a private user who sporadically used Team Viewer free, for strictly personal use and never for commercial purposes.
For several days I can not connect in remote access and is blocked, perhaps by mistake.
I kindly ask you to unlock my ID ... so that you can reuse your great product again. Thank you. Looking forward to a favorable feedback, I offer
With best regards
So, back from my investigation for TV alternatives. I have to confess that I don't think that there are any with all the features TV has:
- you have to either install a client / server (or both) if you want to access from / the machine
- you have to connect via a browser
- there are shady companies behind these (a Russian one or a Vietnamese that single handedly seemed to have pulled off a TV ripoff)
- etc.
I did fill the form here: https://www.teamviewer.com/en/support/commercial-use-suspected/ seemingly faster than https://www.teamviewer.com/en/support/personal-use-verification/ but I haven't got any hope, because their paradigm has shifted.
This guy explains it well here: [Removed because of Community Guidelines]
So even if I (and think others as well) hobbysts out there would find a way to pay for a perpetual licence to use for their own personal use (not remunerated in any way, be that direct / indirect), this simply won't happen, and we do all agree that what they offer as business pricing is simply to high for any individual to afford.
There are 2 alternatives that somewhat could do the trick, one is browser based (you now the most popular browser on Earth has an app which allows remote connection), in LAN you could always rely on the native RDP protocol, or there seems to be another (smaller than TV) European company, in a neighbour country, that has developped a protocol that also detects local installations and allows you to connect over the Internet by knowing the IP (haven't tried this one yet, because I can't install the other end).
I'll try as well to find TV version 9 and see how "bad" the past was.
I confirm that going back to TV version 9 on all machines makes all warnings go away.
You'll just have to disable updates from within the application and also ignore the remote update warning (I don't know why this happens as they all have the same version v9.0.41110 available from here: http://download.teamviewer.com/download/version_9x/TeamViewer_Setup.exe
@Jackgioia there was a huge wave of free users being incorrectly blocked and forced out of TV because there is no personal license that end-users could afford. As I've been saying on this topic, you can either choose a TV alternative (but I couldn't find any with all the features and easiness of use, and even if I found I couldn't quote any :) (I hinted two in a previous post), or you can go back to version 9 on all machines and disable updates. This would definitely make the warnings and blocks go away.
I've set up a computer for remote management at my fathers house to help my him with computer problems occasionally.
I've added it to my list of computers and the connection works great, except that I get disconnected after 5 minutes, and then I have to wait for a while before re-connecting or I get an error message.
I've tried to make things as easy as possible, and register his computer in the "My Computers" section in the TeamViewer manager by installing the Host version and enabling "easy access" from my account.
Should this be set up in a different way? With him creating an account and that I use this to connect to his computer through my contacts or something?
If this is a limitation of the Free License, I'll rather use a different solution for this sporadic support need.
**Third Party Product** or something is really all I need, but I figured using a trusted provider like TeamViewer would be both more safe and easier to manage.
Doesn't seem like this is the case.

This page, about a low purine diet study, was last reviewed or updated on 12 March 2014.
Here's a study that will encourage anyone who seeks a natural remedy for gout.
In this study, (full details at the end of this article) the participants did NOT have gout, but they were at a risk for it because they had high uric acid levels (8.5 mg/dL or more, males; 7.5 mg/dL or more, females), hypertension, and they were overweight or obese.
The researchers hoped to discover whether a low purine diet, a low purine diet plus Allopurinol or Allopurinol alone, would be effective in reducing uric acid levels. Study participants were therefore divided into three groups and placed on one of these three gout treatment courses. The study lasted 36 weeks, and a total of 55 patients completed it.
High purine foods were defined as those containing 100 mg – 1,000 mg of purines per 100 grams of food. (There's a link to a purines table below).
The diet was high in carbohydrates, and calorie amounts on average, varied between 1,670 and 1,854 daily across all groups during the first twelve weeks. (Calories, carbohydrates, protein and fat amounts after 12 weeks were not reported).
One end result of the study was that the participants did not lose weight. Had they done so, uric acid (UA) levels could have fallen further. However, the main objective of the study was to observe UA changes as a result of purine restriction alone, not to lose weight.
Foods high in oxalates were also restricted. These foods can be a risk of kidney stones made from oxalates. Liquids (unspecified in the study report) were encouraged, a de rigueur part of gout treatment. In this case 2.5 – 3.5 litres (liters) daily. That is 93 fl.ozs – 127 fl. ozs, or about 12 – 16 glasses daily, which is at the high end of the usual daily recommendations for water only.
Allopurinol dosage Those participants who took Allopurinol received at first 150 mg daily. After six weeks, if their uric acid levels remained high, the dosage was increased to 300 mg daily. 150 mg – 300 mg daily is a fairly typical dosage of Allopurinol for people with gout and no other medical problems.
medications Most participants took anti-hypertensive
medications during the study. Remember they did suffer hypertension
(high blood pressure). Actually most took thiazide diuretics for
hypertension. These have a reputation for raising UA levels but the
researchers said that in this study these anti-hypertensive drugs did
not affect outcomes, probably because they were taken in low dosages.
Results were expressed as averages, and with standard deviations also shown.
After six weeks all three groups reduced uric acid levels. After 12 weeks, in Group 1 (low purine diet only) and Group 2 (low purine diet plus Allopurinol) participants' UA levels rose slightly; but those in Group 3 (only Allopurinol) enjoyed an additional fall.
However, after 36 weeks the picture changed. In Group 1 (diet only) uric acid levels fell;
in Group 2, (diet plus Allopurinol) they rose for the second time, and
in Group 3 (Allopurinol only) there was a rise above the levels achieved
after 6 and 12 weeks!
And after 36 weeks, the winner was? If the whole period of the study is considered, all groups enjoyed a fall in UA levels, but in which group did it fall the most? It was in Group 1, those on the low purine diet. By, on average, –2.09 mg/dL (excluding measurements of standard deviations which the researchers must have felt did not affect the overall story).This was a fall of 24% from initial levels.
In Group 2 (diet plus Allopurinol) the UA fall over the whole period was –1.23 mg/dL (–13% from starting levels). The balance of men to women in Groups 1 and 3 was about the same (1 man: 2 women). In Group 2, because group participants were chosen at random, it was reversed (2 men: 1 woman). This may have affected the Group 2 outcomes.
In Group 3 (Allopurinol only) the 36 weeks fall was –1.20 mg/dL (–13.25%).
In the 24 weeks after the monitoring at 12 weeks, UA levels rose in the diet plus Allopurinol and Allopurinol only groups. In the first 6 weeks, Allopurinol plus the diet, worked best across all three groups.
It may be inaccurate to draw firm convictions from one low purine diet study. Gout treatment is a matter of probabilities not certainties. And in this low purine diet study, patients did NOT have gout, merely hyperuricemia, hypertension and they were overweight or obese. But here are a few ideas worth remembering, considering and comparing.
Allopurinol on its own (with no other additional treatment except drinking lots of water) may work best in the first 6 – 12 weeks, as it did here. If it doesn't work after 12 weeks it may never work. Allopurinol dosages were increased after 6 weeks among patients for whom Allopurinol was not working, but this seems to have had no effect after 36 weeks.
On the other hand, Allopurinol has performed better than in this study, in other trials.
The benefits of a low purine gout diet grow over time. You may need to try it (if it's the sole treatment plus water drinking) for 5-6 months.
Trying a low purine diet plus Allopurinol (a fairly common treatment)
worked the best, among these three Groups, during the first six weeks.
But the 12 and 36 week measurements recorded increases (the 12 week one a
tiny one) in UA levels. Again, Allopurinol dosages were increased after
6 weeks among patients in this group for whom Allopurinol was not
working, but this also seems to have had no effect after 36 weeks. So
after 12 weeks it may never work. However, as in all groups, the 36 week
figure was down from initial levels.
The researchers' conclusion was that a low purine diet for gout should be tried first. It also has the advantage of being a cheap gout cure.

If these activities are so simple, why is it I still never get round to doing them? Do people really spontaneously whilst grinning like a maniac with their gnarly toenails poking out of birkenstocks in winter gather up their spawn and set up treasure hunts and dare I say, go on outdoor escapades all in the name of fun? It's grim outside. Then again it's always grim, this is Lancashire. Collecting Autumnal artifacts could easily turn into a treacherous game of mind the dog shit whilst dodging the fat grey rain that falls like dead bodies.
I do try, honest. I tried painting but never again, i quite like my kitchen units white thank you. I tried baking yet got overly anal and tetchy when The Child deemed it would be a good idea to mix so furiously half the mixture ends up on him, me, The Baby and the kitchen floor (Of Doom). Then there's the craft time, only The Child is a little over zealous with the glitter and my god you'll find glitter, several weeks after the event in places you forgot you even had (however it does add a new sparkle to find the sausage, ahem. Silver lining and all.)
I convince myself that whilst I'm a sloven and slattern-like house wife who is allergic to housework with a deadly addiction to the internet, my children are learning the vital art of entertaining themselves.
Is it really so criminal to have your catchphrase being 'in a minute!, just a tick!' whilst inwardly groaning at the prospect of yet another mindless game of rolling toy cars across the carpet and lining them up at the other end?
They seem happy enough. & oh how they're loved. I think they love me too, sometimes.

Since several members of my family work in TV I find it tough to see it as the work of the devil... Hey my brother did nothing but watch Transformers growing up and now he writes cartoons for a living so think of it as research ;)ReplyDelete
I must admit that my daughter has now started repeating my old catch-phrase "let me just do this one thing" back to me when I try to get her to do something!
oh I fully agree, The Child is genius and his best friend is the TV, taught him to speak far better then i did (& much less colourfully, language wise)ReplyDelete
I do the treasure hunts, the craft, the baking & the painting etc. I actually thought that everyone did it too, but am coming round to the fact that I'm the weirdo ... This morning, I'm tired & our activities have consisted of Dora on tv & reading toddler books under the duvet in bed, so I'm not creative every day :-PReplyDelete
*L* you have two girls, if i had two girls i'd maybe be more prone to doing this stuff more often too.ReplyDelete

text: Considering the history and evolution of the zipper, it's no wonder why zippers exist as some of the most commonly utilized means of closing the edges of nearly any type of flexible material imaginable. Initially patented as the "Automatic, Continuous Clothing Closure" in 1851, the zipper resembled an ornate drawstring more than it did a true-to-form slide fastener. By 1923, comprised of metal, capable of making a complete closure by interlocking, and officially coined the "zipper" by the B.F. Goodrich Company, zippers had become the go-to closure for the likes of rubber boots and tobacco patches. By 1925, American outerwear conglomerate Schott NYC put zippers to use on its much sought-after leather jackets. Since the 1930s, zippers have held strong as fashion's most popular fastener. Today, zipper varietals are virtually endless. Mood carries the most exotic and commonly used Conventional Zippers, Invisible Zippers, and Separating Zippers.
