This Forum Beta is ONLY for registered owners of D-Link products in the USA for which we have created boards at this time.
After I update to latest firmware (2.10 sth as the date of oct 31 2016) I have the same problem, when using wifi at home. It has no connect unless took sd card from it.However, when I take 942l to my office, it work properly, so fast connect to wireless with sd card . No problem at all. So, I suspect it come from my wireless router at home, it should have problem on connect between TPlink & Asus wireless router. At my office we use Aruba which is more expensive than. I will test it this evening again at home. But just wanna tell u guy that 942L itself has no problem. It need to change config in your router wireless. I may try to do "no security" to test it.

Ivan Krastev's TED book asks probing and difficult questions about democracy in societies that do not trust their leaders. For example, while Americans cling to the belief that democray represents the highest form of political organization, they also rate members of Congress amongst the least trusted professions. In his book In Mistrust We Trust, Krastev asks: can democracy survive?
The theme of trust runs through this week's TEDx highlights. Can we trust that students are paying for an education and not a degree? Can we trust history? Can we trust ourselves to find the courage to deal with life's difficulties? These are some of the questions addressed in these four TEDx talks, highlighting just a few of the enlightening speakers from the TEDx community and its diverse constellation of ideas.
Love in a shoe box: Verna St. Rose Greaves at TEDxPortofSpain
At TEDxPortofSpain, Verna St. Rose Greaves shares a remarkable story of determination and survival from when she was 12 years old — her mother rescuing her prematurely born niece by keeping her alive in a shoebox. She challenges us to find that kind of courage in ourselves and take action to fight modern poverty.
Less trust, more trustworthiness: Baroness Onora O'Neill at TEDxHousesofParliament
Between the financial crises, global unrest and the precarious nature of personal privacy it seems that trust is declining. But that, according to Onora O'Neill, may not be true and — even if it were — may not be a problem. In this understated and rich talk, Baroness O'Neill breaks down our assumptions about the value of trust, asking us instead to focus on trustworthiness and the vulnerability it takes to earn it.
History's selective memory: Ray Raphael at TEDxEureka
How do we decide which stories from history to tell? Ray Raphael says, by creating a suitable, sometimes easy,narrative. At TEDxEureka, Raphael uses the American Revolution to show how this narrative might not be as accurate as we think, and asks that as gatekeepers of the past, we become aware of how easily our narratives can be manipulated.
A full education, beyond the degree: David Helfand at TEDxWestVancouverED
Students are buying degrees, not educations, says Dr. David Helfand. At TEDxWestVancouverED, Helfand suggests a radical overhaul of the modern university, including interdepartmental cooperation, holistic curricula, and interactive lectures to create degree programs that will provide undergraduates with more than just a diploma — an education to serve them in whatever they decide to pursue.
Below, some highlights from the TEDx blog this week:

DC Coalition Against Domestic Violence (DCCADV)
The DC Coalition Against Domestic Violence was established in 1986 by four women from different local community groups who shared an understanding of the destructiveness, complexity and staggering prevalence of domestic violence. Together they created DCCADV to unify local efforts into a single force to eliminate domestic violence in the District of Columbia. DCCADV's mission is to build a community where domestic violence is replaced with human dignity. We advance our mission through advocacy, community education, public policy, technical assistance and training, resource sharing and research. The Coalition is a resource for the thousands of adults and children experiencing domestic violence in the District each year, as well as the local organizations that serve them. The Coalition offers support and services for today and education, advocacy and leadership to shape a violence-free future for families in the District of Columbia.

Bigotry: The Dark Danger
What Darwinists Fail To Consider
Chapter 1: Darwinists are Looking for a Miracle
The record of evolution is still surprisingly jerky and, ironically, we have even fewer examples of evolutionary transition than we had in Darwin's time. By this I mean that the classic cases of Darwinian change in the fossil record, such as the evolution of the horse in North America, have had to be modified or discared as a result of more detailed information. What appeared to be a nice simple progression when relatively few data were available now appears to be much more complex and less gradualistic. So Darwin's problem has not been alleviated. 2 David Raup, an evolutionist paleontologist at the University of Chicago
In 1859, the theory of evolution, developed in a climate of terrible ignorance and emerged with a claim that people had never heard of before. That was the hypothesis that all living things evolved from one another as a result of completely random natural events, with no conscious divine intervention involved. Charles Darwin wrote his book The Origin of Species to showcase his theory's main idea, that living things are able to develop into other living species. On the basis of his completely imaginary scenarios, he attempted vainly to oppose the fact that living things are actually created.
In the climate of scientific ignorance prevailing in the 19th century, Darwin had no evidence at all to support his claim. He could not test it using any scientific method. The most important source of evidence that he hoped would back him up—the fossil record—had produced not a shred of evidence in his favor. That is why Darwin was keen to insist that his theory would be proved by future discoveries. He expected a miracle, one which, in his view, would in some way prove that evolution had actually taken place.
In Darwin's day, the science of genetics and DNA were unknown. There were very few fossil records, and technology was too primitive to permit any investigation into the anatomy of fossils or living things. Darwin hoped for a major discovery to substantiate his claim—a discovery for which Darwinists are still waiting.
His followers subsequently continued their quest for just such a miracle. But this time, the scale of the miracle that would be needed had increased considerably. Scientific advances showed in detail the complex structures within living things and revealed previously unknown molecular systems. The huge advances in the science of genetics revealed extraordinary structures such as DNA, and countless more species were discovered on Earth, all of which Darwinists would have to account for. In addition, the fossil record provided not a single example of the semi-developed life forms that the theory of evolution predicted. Actually, the record showed that species that had existed in the past and had even been described as transitional forms were still alive in the present, having undergone no changes whatsoever.
The theory of evolution could not answer any of the questions that had arisen since Darwin's time. It completely lacked any supporting evidence.
The search for a miracle that Darwin initiated is still being carried out by evolutionists today. Yet in all that time, there has not been one single development or discovery in favor of the theory of evolution. Quite the contrary, countless indisputable proofs have demonstrated its invalidity. Yet in their quest, Darwinists refuse to make any concessions. There are millions of questions that evolutionists need to answer. How did enormously sensitive systematic structures and the extraordinary complexity in life forms—which evolutionists maintain are evolved from one another—all come into being? No explanation has been offered of how the fictitious mechanisms of evolution actually work, or how they could have created life from nothing, or how one species could "evolve" into another totally different one. Darwin's theory cannot account for a single protein in living things.
Present-day Darwinists, whose hopes have constantly been dashed over the years, still maintain their absolute and essential faith in miracles and take no interest in the subjects they cannot explain. They say that the sublime attributes of countless living things all came about through luck. Asked who it was who wrought that luck, they reply chance. In effect, they equate chance with Allah (May He forgive us). They maintain that the magnificent and breathtaking life we all witness is a miracle, yes, but only one brought about by chance.
They suggest that chance is the only power that gave rise to splendidly attractive butterflies, leopards, cats, penguins, elephants, strawberries, peaches, violets, roses, extraordinarily lovely forests and to human beings who think, see, interpret and understand and possess a flawless molecular structure. In fact, rather than make a deity out of chance, any thinking person can see that there is intelligence even in a single living cell, and that this intelligence can never be explained in terms of unconscious processes.
Darwinists maintain that the astonishing and magnificent life forms we see are the products of blind chance fashioned by luck. They claim that chance brought about the genetic changes that gave rise to butterflies, tigers, birds, penguins, elephants, strawberries, peaches, violets, roses, gloriously lovely forests and human beings able to think, see, interpret and understand and possessed of their flawless anatomical structure.
Their aim is not to attribute the creation on Earth to Allah. They are aware of the genuine miracles in every life form they examine, but they are reluctant to accept these as miracles of Allah. Because they make a deity of themselves, refusing to accept their roles as servants of Allah, they close their eyes to these obvious miracles and suppose that random phenomena devoid of any conscious, controlled and purposeful intervention constitute a creative force.
Their aim here is to allay the fearful implications that follow if Allah actually does exist—Surely Allah is beyond this, and to turn people away from the threatening concepts of the eternal life of the Hereafter and the Day of Reckoning. Otherwise, the claims inherent in the theory of evolution are totally illogical to any rational human being. No logical person can acknowledge the consciousness present at every point in the living cell and yet still believe that all this emerged as the result of unconscious processes. If they have not been exposed to Darwinist indoctrination, no rational individual can find these claims logical. If they haven't been subjected to Darwinist propaganda, they will find it easy to admit that a power created life on Earth. They will declare that there is a consciousness manifest in living things' behavior, lives and bodies. They will clearly grasp the undeniable fact that a sublime Consciousness has brought these life forms into being.
However, Darwinist propaganda withholds the truth from children ever since grade school. They have no way of questioning the illogicality and scientific invalidity of the theory of evolution, which is the only alternative offered them by their textbooks and teachers. If students are rebuked for espousing any theory other than evolution, if they are deprived of any means of carrying out detailed research into the alternative, if they are exposed to one-sided Darwinian propaganda at all turns, and if books refuting evolution are withheld from libraries or their homes, then it becomes inevitable for them to become members of a bewitched society, just as Darwinists desire.
Darwinists monopolize the media in order to spread the totally illogical myth of evolution. They maintain that chance is the origin of anything and everything they cannot explain. And since there are so many things which they cannot explain, they find that the best, most effective solution is not to examine them. Never thinking, they continue to deceive themselves and those around them. But this deception's effects do not last long on an unbiased, consciously questioning individual.
In the Qur'an, Allah calls on people to reflect on what has been created in the heavens and Earth. If people are able to see and believe in the sublime works of our Lord, then reflecting on them will further broaden their horizons and understanding, strengthening their belief in the nearness of our Almighty Creator and in the Hereafter. Such people will see that there is artistry and intellect in everything they investigate, and will better comprehend the sublime intellect, might and artistry of our Lord.
It is easy for an unthinking society to trust in the illogical, unfounded theory of evolution and to be taken in by propaganda. Thinking people, on the other hand, will clearly see that all the worlds belong to Allah, He Who is worthy of the greatest praise, the Lord of majesty and greatness.
In the creation of the heavens and Earth, and the alternation of the night and day, and the ships which sail the seas to people's benefit, and the water which Allah sends down from the sky—by which He brings the Earth to life when it was dead and scatters about in it creatures of every kind—and the varying direction of the winds, and the clouds subservient between heaven and Earth, there are Signs for people who use their intellect. (Surat al-Baqara, 164)

Source of the definitions
What are services?
International Trade in Services in MSITS 2010
The following definitions are taken from the Manual on Statistics of International Trade in Services (MSITS 2010).
The term services covers a heterogeneous range of intangible products and activities that are difficult to encapsulate within a simple definition. Services are also often difficult to separate from the goods with which they may be associated in varying degrees.
In general, MSITS 2010 respects the 2008 SNA use of the term services, which is defined as follows (2008 SNA, para. 6.17):
Services are the result of a production activity that changes the conditions of the consuming units, or facilitates the exchange of products or financial assets. These types of service may be described as Transformation services and margin services, respectively. Transformation services are outputs produced to order and typically consist of changes in the conditions of the consuming units realized by the activities of producers at the demand of the consumers. Transformation services are not separate entities over which ownership rights can be established. They cannot be traded separately from their production. By the time their production is completed, they must have been provided to the consumers.
The 2008 SNA (paras. 6.18 and 6.19) goes on to qualify transformation services as follows:
The changes that consumers of services engage the producers to bring about can take a variety of different forms as follows:
(a) Changes in the condition of the consumer's goods: the producer works directly on goods owned by the consumer by transporting, cleaning, repairing or otherwise transforming them;
(b) Changes in the physical condition of persons: the producer transports the persons, provides them with accommodation, provides them with medical or surgical treatments, improves their appearance, etc.;
(c) Changes in the mental condition of persons: the producer provides education, information, advice, entertainment or similar services in a face-to-face manner.
The changes may be temporary or permanent. For example, medical or education services may result in permanent changes in the condition of the consumers from which benefits may be derived over many years. On the other hand, attending a football match is a short-lived experience. In general, the changes may be presumed to be improvements, as services are produced at the demand of the consumers. The improvements usually become embodied in the persons of the consumers or the goods they own and are not separate entities that belong to the producer. Such improvements cannot be held in inventories by the producer or traded separately from their production.
The 2008 SNA (para. 6.21) defines margin services as follows:
Margin services result when one institutional unit facilitates the change of ownership of goods, knowledge-capturing products, some services or financial assets between two other institutional units. Margin services are provided by wholesalers and retailers and by many types of financial institutions. Margin services resemble transformation services in that they are not separate entities over which ownership rights can be established. They cannot be traded separately from their production. By the time their production is completed, they must have been provided to the consumers.
The 2008 SNA recommends the use of CPC, Version 2, for the classification of products or outputs (where services products are classified approximately in sects. 5 through 9 thereof) and of ISIC, Rev.4, for the classification of activity. In practice, services activities are mainly taken to be those listed in sections G through S of ISIC, Rev.4, (a) with some exceptions appearing in other sections. In BPM6, the concept of services is essentially identical to that of the 2008 SNA, even though the BOP services components travel, construction and government goods and services n.i.e. include some goods. On the other hand, under certain circumstances, international trade in goods may include, indistinguishably, such service charges as insurance, maintenance contracts, transport charges, intellectual property payments and packaging.
(a) Electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply (ISIC, Rev.4, sect. D); water supply; sewerage, waste management and remediation activities (ISIC, Rev.4, sect. E); and construction (ISIC, Rev.4, sect. F) are not covered, since the main production is generally regarded as being related more to goods.
Before the publication of MSITS 2010, the conventional statistical meaning of international trade in services was that described in BPM6, which defines international trade in services as trade between residents and non-residents of an economy. This corresponds very closely to the concept of trade in services in the "rest of the world" account of the 2008 SNA. Such trade is described in chapter III of MSITS 2010.
This concept of international trade in services is combined with the concept of international trade in goods to create that of international trade in the BPM6 goods and services account. However, as described in box I.1, it is not always possible to clearly separate the value of trade in goods from the value of trade in services.
Services differ from goods in a number of ways, most commonly in respect of the immediacy of the relationship between supplier and consumer. Many services are non-transportable, that is, they often require the physical proximity of supplier and customer: for example, the supply of a hotel service requires the hotel to be where the customer wishes to stay, a cleaning service for a business must be provided at the site of the business, and haircutting requires both hairstylist and client to be present.
For international trade in such non-transportable services to take place, either the consumer must go to the supplier or the supplier must go to the consumer. Suppliers may prefer to provide their services while being present in the country of the consumer rather than cross-border. International trade accords, concerning services, in particular those encompassed by the GATS, make provision for agreement on the subject of suppliers having a presence in the country of the consumer or vice versa.
Accordingly, MSITS 2010 extends the scope of international trade in services to cover the supply of services through foreign affiliates established abroad. Such supply of services and its related statistics, described here as Foreign Affiliates Statistics (FATS), are explained in chapter IV.
MSITS 2010 also covers the supply of services through the presence of foreign individuals, either as foreign service suppliers themselves or as employees of a foreign service supplier, which is either the mother enterprise or a foreign affiliate of the mother enterprise. However, consideration of foreign persons who are employees of host country enterprises that are not owned by a foreign parent is outside the scope of MSITS 2010. Most services supplied through the presence of natural persons are covered by BPM6 (under the services account) and FATS frameworks. An in-depth discussion of this is provided in chapter V.
In MSITS 2010, the component covered by the extended scope of international trade in services is also referred to as international supply of services.
Note: Although MSITS 2010 extends the general scope of the term "international trade in services" to accommodate the GATS provisions, it does not suggest that provision and acquisition of services by foreign affiliates established abroad should be referred to as exports and imports of services. This term, in an international statistical context, is reserved for trade in services between residents and non-residents of different economies.

No. 9 Irish ride Jones' 176 yards to 30-27 victory over USC
SOUTH BEND, Ind. - No. 9 Notre Dame survived upset-minded Southern California by staying grounded in chilly Notre Dame Stadium on Saturday night.
Tony Jones Jr. rushed for a career-high 176 yards, Ian Book scored on an 8-yard run with 3:33 left and Jonathan Doerer kicked three long field goals as the Irish won 30-27 in the 91st meeting of the longtime rivals.
"An exciting football game," coach Brian Kelly said. "Our guys prepared so well for this game. They (USC) were coming off a bye week and we knew there were some things we'd have to adjust to. We took USC's best shot."
It was the third straight victory for the Fighting Irish (5-1) over the Trojans (3-3) and it wasn't easy after USC had drawn within 23-20 behind true freshman quarterback Kedon Slovis.
Book's touchdown ended a 14-play, 75-yard drive that took 6:54 off the clock. The Irish quarterback, who rushed for 49 yards and added 165 yards through the air on 17-of-32 passing, credited offensive coordinator Chip Long's play-calling.
"They were bringing pressure off the edge," Book said, "so I just wanted to bring it up the middle. The line did a good job."
The Trojans' Markese Stepp, who ran for 82 yards, scored from the 2 with 1:04 left to make it 30-27. Notre Dame's Brock Wright recovered the onside kick, and the Irish ran out the clock.
"Notre Dame is a good football team and we are, too, and I can't wait to watch the next six games," said USC coach Clay Helton, who fell to 1-4 against Notre Dame.
Jones' fourth 100-yard game of the season came on 25 carries. He had 12 runs for 120 yards in the first half.
"Coach is letting me out of the cage a little bit," Jones joked. "I've always been like this. To be honest, I saw my line working hard, I saw my tight ends working hard and I just tried to do whatever I could do."
The Irish led 17-3 at half after Book threw a 10-yard TD pass to Cole Kmet, wide receiver Braden Lenzy ran 51 yards on a reverse and Doerer kicked a 43-yard field goal.
Doerer added field goals of 52 and 43 yards in the second half to keep the Irish ahead.
Slovis completed 24 of 35 passes for 255 yards in his first game back from a concussion three weeks ago. He threw touchdown passes of 38 yards to Amon-Ra St. Brown in the third quarter and 5 yards to Tyler Vaughns in the fourth.
USC: Slovis completed 10 of 17 passes for 74 yards in the first half but was sacked three times and hurried on four other occasions by Notre Dame's defense, which switched between three- and four-man fronts. After intermission, Slovis was 14 of 18 for 181 yards and two touchdowns.
"We came away from the first half feeling like we left points on the board that we should have scored," Slovis said. "The second half we were kind of hungry to do what we knew we could accomplish."
Notre Dame: The Irish punted on their first three series but finished the half with 196 yards on the ground. Jones carried the load, bursting up the middle for 43 yards on a nine-play, 97-yard scoring drive that gave his team a 7-3 lead. And when they had to in the fourth quarter, the Irish did their damage running the football.
"They were playing a two-deep zone, and it was important that we ran the football in that situation," Kelly said of his team's last touchdown drive. "Our offensive line and tight ends did a great job blocking. Tony Jones was outstanding again in the fourth quarter."
Notre Dame: The Irish likely won't move up even with South Carolina's 20-17 double-overtime victory at No. 3 Georgia. That's because the Irish lost 23-17 at Georgia last month.
As they did here in 1971 during a 28-14 victory by USC, the Irish and Trojans got in a scuffle. When the half ended, USC guard Jalen McKenzie and Notre Dame defensive end Jamir Jones had words at midfield. More players joined in the pushing and shoving while coaches from both sides attempted to break it up.
Each team received offsetting unsportsmanlike conduct penalties.
Doerer, who kicked a field goal last season against Navy when all-time leading scorer Justin Yoon was injured, ended the first-half scoring with a career-long 45-yard field goal. He then topped that on Notre Dame's first possession of the second half with a 52-yarders . He also kicked a 43-yarder.
"We knew the physical abilities when we recruited him," Kelly said after giving Doerer the game ball. "It was about how do we get this young man to hone in to the exceptional skill he has. He is so confident now in what he does. He's unflappable and trusts what he is doing."
Notre Dame has won its last 15 games at Notre Dame Stadium. ... Notre Dame, which had given up just three touchdown passes in five games, surrendered two more to Slovis. . Neither team committed a turnover. ... Notre Dame running backs have not fumbled in 1,247 rushing attempts since Nov. 21, 2015, the longest active streak in FBS.
USC plays Arizona at home on Oct. 19.
Notre Dame has an open date before an Oct. 26 visit to No. 16 Michigan.

Putin takes on West over Ukraine: who blinks first?
By Elizabeth Piper MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russian President Vladimir Putin has taken a gamble on Ukraine and is betting that U.S. President Barack Obama will blink first. Wounded by a personal political defeat in a battle for influence over Russia's Slavic neighbor, Putin is fighting back, and presenting the crisis as a question of symmetry. In his view, the West "stood by" and allowed armed men to direct events in the capital Kiev - now he is "standing by" as armed men extended their control over the Crimea region. The former KGB spy blames the West for stirring passions in Kiev, encouraging an opposition to break agreements to restore peace and allowing what Moscow calls "extremists" and "fascists" to dictate political developments in Ukraine. Now authorized by parliament to deploy Russia's military in Ukraine to protect national interests and those of Russian citizens, Putin is taking on a West he feels has cut Moscow out of talks on the future of Russia's Orthodox Christian brothers. How far he will go is the big question. While Moscow has put 150,000 troops on high alert near Ukraine's border, it has shown no signs, yet, of sending them and denies Ukrainian allegations it sent the protesters who have hoisted Russian flags in some eastern towns. Putin is saying nothing in public on Ukraine - and has not done so since Moscow-backed President Viktor Yanukovich was deposed more than a week ago. At the center of attention as one Western leader after another calls to urge him not to use force, he is betting the West's response will be weak. His calculation is that Obama has few levers at his disposal and no appetite for war over a remote Black Sea peninsula with symbolic and strategic value to Russia as home to a Russian naval base, but little economic significance. The two presidents spoke by phone for 90 minutes on Saturday. The call appeared to have ended in a stalemate. RECLAIMING "LOST" TERRITORY Putin is banking on salvaging something out of a battle over Ukraine that he appeared to have won when Yanukovich spurned trade and political deals with the European Union in November, but then seemed to lose when Yanukovich was ousted after three months of protests. "The West told Putin to get lost over Ukraine," said Sergei Markov, a pro-Putin political analyst and director of the Institute for Political Studies in Moscow, underlining the depth of hurt Putin felt over Ukraine. Accusing Western powers and international organizations of trying to ignore Moscow in talks on financial assistance for Kiev, Markov said: "What we are saying is that if there are any U.N., IMF, G8 agreements without consultations with us, then we will see them as illegitimate." Reclaiming Crimea, a former Russian territory handed to Ukraine by Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev in 1954, would win Putin kudos among core voters and especially nationalists. If the status quo established in the last few days holds, with Russian forces already in charge in Crimea, he can hope to have won back Crimea without a shot being fired in anger or the necessity of taking on another drain to the state coffers. Even if a pullback is forced on him, Putin will still portray himself as the defender of national interests and those of Russians abroad. In the eyes of many voters, he hopes, he will not have given up Ukraine without a fight. While he has been busy defending national interests, his lieutenants have been lambasting the West over Ukraine, accusing it of manipulating events and working with a government chosen by gun-toting "extremists". Combined with an orchestrated wave of nationalist indignation over attempts to limit use of the Russian language and persecute Russians in a country many consider an extension of their own, Putin's stance plays well at home. His insistence that Ukraine's new leaders stick to the terms of a European Union-brokered political agreement last month with Yanukovich goes down well. This month, his popularity ratings have bounced back to almost 70 percent, according to an opinion poll by independent pollster Levada. "Putin has not forgiven the fact that the agreement was not fulfilled and that is one of his greatest motivations. He considers he is acting in a symmetrical way," said Gleb Pavlovsky, a former Kremlin spin doctor. "I think that the authorities think it's very helpful that people are getting themselves worked up about this... And the majority feel in a patriotic mood about Crimea and Ukraine. I think it's positive for the Kremlin. They won't refuse action." ACTION? Whether he takes action may still depend on the West. Military intervention in Ukraine has higher stakes than the war Russia fought with Georgia in 2008 - invading Ukraine's southeast could transform Putin, a man who wanted the Sochi Winter Olympics to show Russia's modern face, into a pariah. If Western powers decide to try to punish Russia with sanctions, Putin will be likely again to pursue a "symmetrical" policy and hit back with similar moves. This would go down well with core supporters, but might risk unsettling the wealthy businessmen whose support helps cement Putin's grip on power. But there is a risk Putin could be forced into action over Crimea by the nationalist thinking that he has let loose - and this would be particularly risky if he were pushed into action to defend Russian speakers in eastern Ukraine. The decision to seek authorization to send in troops looked less like a prelude to war and more like a threat aimed at getting Kiev and the West to cut a deal, Professor Mark Galeotti from the Center of Global Affairs at New York University wrote on his blog. "As the language toughens and the troops roll, though, it's getting harder to believe that common sense is going to prevail in the Kremlin." In broadcasts with Cold War overtones, state television has many times repeated footage of parliament accusing Washington of crossing a red line by warning that Moscow will face "costs" if it intervenes in Ukraine. It has run image after image of pro-Russian protesters raising the Russian flag above administrative buildings in several eastern regions, including the industrial centers of Donetsk and Kharkiv. The patriotic mood has caught on. For every dissenter wondering whether this is the worst thing Russia could do since it crushed opposition in Czechoslovakia in 1968, there are dozens more who say the West is fomenting violence. Near Red Square and the Defense Ministry in Moscow on Sunday, a few hundred protesters waved banners calling for "No War". Dozens were detained. But their numbers could not match the thousands who turned out for a demonstration for the "defense of the Ukrainian people" in central Moscow. "Fascism will not win," the protesters chanted. "Crimea is Russia. We are for Russian unity." (Additional reporting by Katya Golubkova, Denis Pinchuk, Sergei Karpukhin, Ian Bateson, editing by Philippa Fletcher)

Wired's Man in Barcelona, Charlie Sorrel, has made a rather wonderful e-book reader using his iPod Touch and a Moleskine sketchbook. The version you see here is Mark One, and he's already working on Mark Two, as the flap he created after the touch kept falling out of the notebook isn't really practical enough. Sorrel claims he did this to look cool and hip in Barna's bars and cafes and thus get the girls, so I'm looking forward to the follow-up post detailing his successes and failures.

What is Macular Degeneration?
The macula is the central part of the retina. When it breaks down, loss of vision is likely to ensue. The condition results in distortion in the central section of the field of vision, but the side (peripheral) vision remains unaltered. The leading cause of impaired reading or detailed vision is macular degeneration. It is most common in people over the age of 60, but people as young as 40 can also be affected.
What Causes Macular Degeneration?
The most common cause of macular degeneration is the ordinary process of aging. With aging comes the breaking down of retinal tissue as well as the gradual deterioration of vision that causes the macular to lose its function. In some circumstances, the condition is aggravated by leaking blood vessels responsible for nourishing the retina. In this circumstance, scar tissue starts to grow, and so do abnormal blood vessels. These new blood vessels will commonly leak, often resulting in blurred or distorted vision. Central vision can be affected in several ways by the dense scar-tissue formation.
Some types of infections or injuries can cause macular degeneration as well. However, genetics also plays a large as the condition can also be hereditary.
Who Should Undergo a Macular Degeneration Checkup?
While the condition is more common among the aging population (over 60), it still affects individuals as young as 40. If you have any of the following risk factors you should be checked for macular degeneration:
- Hereditary factors, such as a family history of macular degeneration
- Smoking
- Obesity
- Cardiovascular disease
If you have experienced any of these symptoms, then you should see an eye care professional for evaluation.
- Distorted central vision- When you are experiencing distorted central vision, even ordinary activities like driving and reading will present a challenge. If you see distorted lines, blurred words on a page, or darkness in the middle of your vision, then you should visit an eye doctor immediately.
- Fading of color vision- In this case side vision is not affected, as there is not a total loss of sight. Fading color of vision causes the good eye to make up for the bad eye (if the condition involves only one eye). Consequently, the compensation makes it possible to conceal the symptoms of the disease.
How to Test for Macular Degeneration?
To test and diagnose macular degeneration, your doctor may administer one or more of the tests below. Also, your doctor may also review your family medical history and conduct a comprehensive eye exam.
Dilated eye exam- The doctor dilates your eyes in search of yellow deposits called drusen that appear under the retina.
Amsler grid- When looking at this grid, if the straight lines begin to look distorted, broken or faded, then it may be a sign of macular degeneration.
Optical coherence tomography- This test is used to determine the thickness of the retina. This is a noninvasive imaging test that helps determine whether fluid has leaked into the retina.
Fluorescein angiography- This technique uses a special camera and dye to identify retinal changes or abnormal blood vessels. A dye will be injected into a vein in your arm and will travel to the blood vessels in your eye, highlighting them along the way. The special camera will take pictures as the dye travels.
Indocyanine green angiography- This is very similar to fluorescein angiography in that a dye is injected. This test is used to confirm any findings in the fluorescein angiography test and can also be helpful in identifying specific types of macular degeneration.

Deck the Halls with The Popcorn Board
Tis the season of decking halls and trimming trees, and we've got a delicious way to do both—in the kitchen. There's
no chance of breaking heirloom ornaments when you're decorating miniature Festive Popcorn Trees from the Popcorn Board. Roll up your sleeves, gather the kids, and pull out your prettiest decorating sugars
and sprinkles. Then turn marshmallows and popcorn into a scenic winter wonderland to display or eat.
Long ago, Christmas trees were trimmed with edibles such as apples, nuts or dates. With Festive Popcorn Trees your entire tree is edible! There's no right or wrong way to decorate a tree but if you're unsatisfied with the results, eat it and start again. It's the ultimate eco-friendly way to trim a tree.
And if you're looking to trim fat and calories during this hectic season, pop
up a bowl of plain popcorn to nibble on when hunger strikes. At 30 calories a
cup, wholesome, whole grain popcorn is naturally low in fat and calories and the fiber can help fill you between meals. Leave the padding to jolly old St. Nick.
Festive Popcorn Trees
Makes: 10 trees
- 10 cups air-popped popcorn
- 1 10-ounce bag miniature marshmallows
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Decorating sugar (green, blue)* 1 tube of white frosting (with decorating tip)
- Assorted small colorful candies, such as sprinkles and miniature silver dragees
- Place popcorn in large bowl.
- Place marshmallows and butter in medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir until marshmallows are melted and mixture is smooth. Remove from heat.
- Stir in vanilla extract.
- Pour mixture over popcorn in bowl. Toss well to coat popcorn evenly.
- Line a baking sheet with foil.
- Spray hands with nonstick cooking, then scoop up about 1 cup of popcorn mixture.
- Shape mixture into a cone shape, keeping the base flat. This forms the tree.
- Sprinkle tree with decorating sugar;
- place tree on baking sheet.
- Continue to make the rest of the trees.
- Pipe frosting on trees to make a garland, then decorate them with colorful candies.
Serving suggestion:
Place each tree on a sugar cookie and decorate your serving tray with shredded coconut to resemble snow.
It's important that this recipe starts with unflavored white popcorn for best color and flavor. Make your own colored sugar by adding food coloring to sugar, stirring in a bowl or shaking vigorously in a sealed container. Add more food coloring for more intense tones.

Kevin Kolb saw most of the reps with the Buffalo Bills' first-team offense, and EJ Manuel led the second unit at Sunday's opening training-camp practice.
Bills coach Doug Marrone praised both quarterbacks equally and said he plans to slide more of the first-team time toward the rookie, Manuel, until it's "50-50" during camp. And while Marrone declined to say who'd start in the Bills' first preseason game, the first-year coach did put a date on when he'd like to choose his regular-season starter.
"You like to sit there as a coach and say you'd like that decision to just come up in front of you," Marrone said, per the Associated Press. "Really if you can get 10, 12 days prior to that first game, that's when you're going to get pressed for time and have to make a decision on a quarterback. That's when you're probably going to start preparing, 10 days out of the first game."
There's always a chance the decision will come well before the 10-day marker, if one player -- Manuel, in particular -- outplays the other. Early indicators from Bills camp are that Manuel's size and arm strength have been as good as advertised, but Marrone noted the rookie still lacked "polish."

I know that last night was supposed to be LeBron James's face turn and that, while he warmly celebrates his first title with teammates and family, I'm supposed to see LeBron in a whole new light. Maybe he's not such a bad guy. Maybe this playoff run has brought out a depth of character heretofore unseen in James. Maybe he's cool now.
One of the annoying things about being a sports fan is that you can see the canned narratives coming a mile away. And so after LeBron won his title, the REDEMPTION storyline that every sportswriter had auto-saved to Word came flying out. The AP:
Ripped and ridiculed for the way he announced he was leaving Cleveland and taking his talents to South Beach, it's all worth it now for James.
At that moment, James was no longer the antihero of "The Decision."
For now, let them just enjoy the trophy they have, the smell of Champagne and beer and success. Let LeBron James have his moment with his closest friends — trophy in his hands, weight off his mind.
Even our beloved former weekend editor The Mighty MJD:
Am I a douche if I kind of like LeBron now? I don't know. Show me that kind of greatness and emotional strength, and I'm on board.
Oh, bullshit. There's never been any question that LeBron James is a great basketball player. And even when he was coming up short in the playoffs, haters like myself just used those failures as an easy excuse to pile on him further, because he's a dipshit and he deserved it. The fact that he's won a championship doesn't fundamentally alter his character in any way. That's the great con of sports: the idea that winners win because they have character and losers lose because they don't. If you think LeBron is a good guy now because he won a title, then you probably had no business thinking he was a bad guy to begin with, because the outcome of a sporting event says nothing about the person within.
LeBron's genuine joy last night may have been refreshing to some people, but I could find more than enough things to offset that. There was Stuart Scott, standing up there on the dais, trying desperately to contain himself from working LeBron's shaft. And there was Pat Riley SMILING! God, that's so fucking creepy. I don't want to live in a world where Pat Riley's smiling. It's like watching a male porn star smile right before fisting an 18-year-old. It's gross. There are no good intentions behind it. Look at what Riley said to Dan LeBatard:
One word to describe the last two years, Pat? "Harrowing," he says.
Oh, fuck you, Pat. You're a half-retired multimillionaire. You didn't spend the last two years in a fucking POW camp. Go to hell.
Remember: Michael Jordan had more than a few touching championship celebrations, and we now know that Jordan is, without question, a Grade A Flaming Red Asshole. Michael Jordan is the black Daniel Plainview. And there's no reason LeBron won't end up the same way. Once the game hit garbage time last night, he took off that stupid extra-wide headband he was using to hide his receding hairline. All his insecurities are gone now, which means he's probably gonna end up being an even BIGGER cocksucker than before. In fact, he's already offered proof. Look at this shit (via With Leather):
All that fan hate was helping to keep his worst qualities at bay, I tell you. I bet you LeBron James is buying into his own bullshit redemption storyline more than anyone else. "It's a great moment for myself," he said. Yes yes, it's all about YOU and your road to salvation, isn't it? YOU BIG SMILING PENIS. Don't ever ask me to be happy for that cocksucker. I hope Kevin Durant sprouts bat wings and wins the next 37 NBA titles.

text: While Jeff Schmidt, the CEO of JAS Global Advisors, was surfing the Web on his new Android smartphone (his first Android phone) earlier this year, what appeared to be an ad popped up on his screen. The "ad" looked like the prompt that appears when his phone rings. He clicked the button on the ad to pick up the putative call, and the ad began downloading a binary file--malware--onto his Android phone. Schmidt had been hit by a drive-by download, a program that automatically installs malicious software on end-users' computers\u2014and increasingly, smartphones\u2014without them knowing. \n\n"I'm a pretty paranoid and sophisticated user," says Schmidt, whose firm provides information security and risk management services. "I didn't think I'd be vulnerable to this sort of thing, but because I wasn't familiar with the user interface, I clicked on the ad. It really surprised me." \nFortunately, Schmidt halted the download when he realized what was going on and caught it before anything bad happened to his phone. He's not sure what the malware would have installed on his phone, but he suspects it could have been some kind of spyware, such as a keystroke logger, or some other application that would turn his computer into a spam-mailing bot or otherwise compromise his security and privacy. \nSchmidt's experience with mobile malware\u2014specifically, with a mobile drive-by download\u2014illustrates the challenges users face detecting and preventing mobile malware from infecting their smartphones. It also demonstrates the sophistication and ever-changing nature of security threats targeting mobile devices. The Mobile Malware Phenomenon: Why It's Hard to DetectMobile malware is proliferating at an astonishing rate. Security threats targeting mobile devices increased more than 600 percent between 2010 and 2011, according to research from Kaspersky Lab. In December 2011 alone, Kaspersky identified more new mobile malware apps than it identified between 2004 and 2010. \n"Mobile devices are scary because people generally have no idea what the software they download will do, whether they get it from an app store or it comes with the phone," says Schmidt. "The apps on mobile devices are not at all transparent. A lot of software gets installed on them that users don't understand." \nSmartphones have become an effective way for criminals to distribute malware because it's harder to recognize on a smartphone than it is on a PC. "Screen real estate is very limited on these devices," he says. "The visual cues we're used to on PCs [when we download a virus] are not available in a mobile environment. Even to sophisticated users, it's not entirely clear what's happening behind the scenes." \nFaster connectivity and more powerful devices further complicate security. Schmidt says both factors make it easier to download malware more quickly, without the user knowing. "That makes a compromised device more valuable to a bad guy," he adds. \nIt also makes smartphones more susceptible to drive-by downloads. How Drive-By Downloads Work on Your Smartphone\nAttackers are adapting the popular and effective drive-by download method, popularized on PCs, for mobile devices, says Kevin Johnson, founder of information security consultancy Secure Ideas and author of Security 542: Web Application Penetration Testing and Ethical Hacking. \nDrive-by downloads work by exploiting vulnerabilities in Web browsers, plug-ins or other components that work within browsers. Through a browser vulnerability, drive-by downloads dump an application onto the user's computer, such as fake anti-virus software\u2014malware that's masked as anti-virus software. \nOn a smartphone, drive-by downloads work differently, says Johnson, who is also a senior instructor with the SANS Technology Institute. "With an iPhone, I can't browse to a Website and have it install an app on my iPhone. The iPhone is not capable of doing that, which is good," he says. "The problem is that the drive-by download model has changed to take that into account." \nSo instead of dumping an app onto your smartphone's OS, the infected Website exploits a vulnerability in, say, the Safari browser and runs commands or packages within the phone's operating system to change the way it works, says Johnson. \n"It's not installing the software, but it's still doing bad stuff to the phone," he adds. "It's considered jail-breaking or rooting the device." How to Protect Your Smartphone\nIT departments can lock down corporate-owned smartphones so that employees can't install anything on them or browse to random Websites. Securing employee-owned smartphones is obviously a lot more difficult. Johnson says companies need to emphasize awareness and make employees understand security risks. He also recommends mobile device management systems that restrict certain user activity. \nOne such mobile device management solution for "Bring Your Own Device" environments comes from Good Technology. Good Technology offers an application that smartphone owners can install on their devices, says Johnson. The software serves as a container for work-related activity on the phone. It basically separates the corporate work from the rest of the phone, says Johnson. \nWhen an employee is ready to get onto the corporate network to check email or product inventory, for example, he simply launches the Good application, which prompts him to authenticate. "Everything that happens inside that app is segmented from the rest of the phone," says Johnson. "As the app is running, everything is there in memory. When you close the app, it saves everything else to a file that is encrypted. Attackers can't get to it. So if a drive-by download attacks a phone, it can't access any of the corporate stuff. It doesn't protect the device; it protects a company from an infected device." \nThe drawback to the Good Technology application, says Johnson, is that the user interface is different from the rest of the phone. "If you're used to the way Android does mail, the Good mail client works differently. It doesn't have the same feature set. A lot of users complain about that," he adds. "But if it's the difference between complaints from users and safety from drive-by downloads, then Good wins." \nMeridith Levinson covers Careers, Security and Cloud Computing for CIO.com.

Some of the most difficult hiking in the Geopark can be found on these trails and geosites:
The TRGG trail system offers over 50 self-guided hikes to various geosites. Trails are well signed and information for visitor includes level of difficulty, specific features such as waterfalls, picnicking, dinosaur footprints and geo sites, distance from community to trail head and availability of cell service. Updating of brochures, guidebooks and interpretive signage is a continual process. Self-guided hiking brochures have been developed by the local Wolverine Nordic Mountain Society (WNMS). They can be downloaded here or picked up at the Visitor Information Centre and Community Centre downtown.
The Tumbler Ridge Geopark is home to many creatures but the hiker should be aware of Black and Grizzly Bears. Almost all human interaction with bears is of a defensive nature in which the bear will make a lot of noise and really just wants you out of his space. It is generally best to play dead in this situation – regardless of Grizzly or Black Bear. Predatory attacks are quick different and most common with Black Bears and Cougars. You must fight back and defend yourself. It is recommended that hikers travel in groups and carry Bear Spray. More information on Bear encounters is available here from the Center for Wildlife Information.
If you need more information please don't hesitate to contact us! We will forward your inquiry to the appropriate people or groups and get back to you as soon as possible.
Appropriate hiking gear includes:
Bear Spray
Proper footwear
Layers of clothing
Sun Screen
Bug Spray
A flint & tinder
A Compass, Map, and Signalling mirror
It's important to let someone know where you're headed and when you expect to return. Our Visitor Information Centre keeps track of hikers all the time and can be reached at 250-242-3123, or drop in downtown.

Recently I met a senior pastor, a highly respected person who has been faithfully serving the Lord for more than 30 years. One of the questions we discussed was this:
"If we were Jesus, what would we say to churches today?" Both of us paused for some time and felt very uncomfortable to come up with the answer. Eventually, he broke the silent and said, "Give me back my church."
I was shocked for a while, and then tears started to spill out on my cheeks. That silent moment was very painful, very hard, and stressful.
Jesus poured out His life and built the "Church" by Himself. He entrusted His Church with all authority that even the gates of Hades couldn't overcome. The Church holds the keys of the kingdom of heaven.
In the world today, we have seen that many churches don't function or make an impact as they are supposed to. They are not salt and light to the community.
We have seen church growth and an increase in the Christian population in many parts of the world, but poverty and social problems have also increased. It seems that the assumption that "more churches + more Christians = more impact" is not always true.
So let's ask ourselves these questions:
- How can Compassion work with local churches for greater impact in every country we're in?
- Is there anything that each of us, as part of the universal Church, can do to make our congregation a place of light and salt to our community?
- Should Compassion explore any interventions to help churches that are not our partners be catalysts of transformation?
"And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven." –Matthew 16:18–19, NIV
Prayer: We pray that the Church will be a catalyst and will fulfill God's mandate.
