New World Systems Announces Alliance With Intrado
Date: 2014-08-01
Public Safety Alliance to Advance Next Generation 9-1-1 Technology
New World Systems®, a premiere provider of public safety software, announced a new partnership with Intrado®, a leading provider of 9-1-1 technology solutions and a subsidiary of West Corporation, to equip Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs) across the country with Next Generation 9-1-1 (NG9-1-1)-ready solutions. The goal of this formal partnership is to help public safety agencies keep up with changing technology requirements, and improve emergency response for their citizens.
With this new alliance, development is underway to integrate NG9-1-1 data applications with New World's Aegis™ Suite of Public Safety Software. Once complete, this integration will allow PSAPs to handle text and media within New World's Aegis Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) software.
"As technology advances, NG9-1-1 and the ability to receive and respond to multimedia data during an emergency will be essential to provide the fastest and safest 911 experience," said Brian Leary, Vice President of Product Vision for New World Systems. "This partnership with Intrado demonstrates our ongoing commitment to providing our agency partners with advanced next generation solutions that will help them protect and serve their communities better, while keeping first responders safe."
"A partnership with an industry-leader like New World Systems will benefit public safety and advance 9-1-1," said Steve Lowe, Senior Vice President, Intrado. "By working together to offer Next Generation 9-1-1 solutions, Intrado and New World Systems can provide public safety agencies with technology that protects and serves both the citizens and first responders."

Not all heroes wear capes.
A guy on a motorcycle caught a hit-and-run accident on his helmet cam, and he rode up and confronted the driver who took off. (He told the guy he had him on camera… but the guy didn't go back, so he just took his license plate down and gave it to the victim.)

Boating Information
BOATER's MAPS
The Iowa Department of Natural Resources has collaborated with the three lake protective associations to design and print boater's maps for East Okoboji, West Okoboji, and Spirit Lake. The Boater's Maps feature lake depth, location of hazard buoys, marinas, gas docks, boat ramps, and points of interest to boaters.
East Okoboji & Lower Lakes 8.5 X 14" paper size 2.2 MB file size EOLIC CLICK HERE
West Lake Okoboji 8.5 X 14" paper size 2.4 MB file size OPA CLICK HERE
Big Spirit Lake 8.5 X 11" paper size 0.5 MB file size SLPA CLICK HERE
You can print your own map from the PDF files available here. The 8.5 X 14 inch paper size for the Okoboji lakes was necessary to show all the lake features. The 8.5 X 14 map may not proportion correctly when printed on standard 8.5 X 11" paper. The Boater's Maps are available at boat ramps, marinas, resorts, bait shops, Maritime Museum, Spirit Lake Mainsail, DNR Fish Hatchery, and invasive species volunteers.
For The Iowa Great Lakes:
Speed and Distance - The speed and distance restrictions control how fast and how close motorboats may be to another boat. Boats cannot exceed five MPH within one 100 feet of another boat going five MPH or less. Boats must maintain a distance of 50 feet from each other when both boats are traveling at speeds greater than five MPH. Boaters cannot exceed 5 mph within 300 ft of shore.
Nighttime Speed Limit - A nighttime speed limit of 25 MPH is in effect- except for emergency vessels - from one-half hour after sunset to sunrise on all Dickinson County lakes.
Personal Flotation Devices � Iowa Navigation Regulations require that all boats have one approved wearable PFD on board for each person. The PFD must be Coast Guard approved, of the proper size to fit the user, in good working order, and readily accessible to the user. All boats 16 feet or longer are required to have an approved type IV throwable device on board. All persons on a Personal Water Craft MUST WEAR an approved wearable PFD.
Each person who is age 12 and under must wear a PFD while the boat is underway. Exceptions are provided when at anchor, tied to a dock, aground, in a enclosed cabin, or while on a commercial vessel with a capacity of 25 persons or more.
Iowa Mandatory Boater Education Requirement � PWC and boat operators (operating a boat with more than 10 HP) from age 12 through 17 must successfully complete an approved boat safety course before being certified to be a boat operator. Persons under 18 years of age can operate a boat or PWC, without certification, if they are accompanied on the same vessel with a responsible person of at least 18 years of age who is experienced in motorboat operation.
Congested Area � Smith�s Bay, west of the Highway #71 bridge to Pillsbury and Ft Dodge Point on West Lake Okoboji - and the area east of Highway #71 on East Lake Okoboji are heavily congested boating areas. It is recommended that skiers, tubers, and boat fisherman avoid these areas and other areas of heavy boating traffic.
Wake Courtesy � Boat wakes can be dangerous to canoes, kayaks, and small boats with a short freeboard. Sailboats can be stopped dead in their tracks with excessive boat wakes. Boat wakes can cause shoreline erosion. At medium speed a boat can create a larger wake than it would at a slower or faster speed. Boaters are responsible for the damage caused by their wakes.
Water Skiing & Tubing � A responsible observer along with the driver of the boat is required to watch the person being towed behind the boat. Persons being towed must wear an approved life jacket. While Iowa law permits skiing and tubing from one-half hour after sunset to one-half hour before sunrise boaters should be aware of the reduced visibility in the evening and early morning.
Safety Equipment � It is recommended that all powerboats have an approved fire extinguisher along with a sound-producing device when in operation. In addition, there should not be more persons in a boat than the boat�s rated safety capacity.
Lights � All boats while being operated or anchored on Iowa waters from sunset to sunrise must display the proper navigational lighting for that type of boat. Please refer to the Iowa Boating Regulations for the proper lighting for your boat.
Personal Water Craft � All persons on a PWC must be wearing a Personal Flotation Device. The number of persons onboard a PWC must not exceed its rated person capacity, including any person being towed. A PWC can not be operated after sunset or before sunrise. The operator of a PWC must comply with the Iowa Mandatory Boater Education Requirement. PWC's must follow the same water safety laws that apply to boaters.
Careless Operation � Shooting water guns at moving boats and passengers can distract the driver causing an accident or cause injury to passengers. This is particularly true in the congested areas in the Iowa Great Lakes. A person riding the bow of a moving boat may be tossed overboard by a large wave and run over before the driver has an opportunity to act.
Hypothermia � Even on hot summer days in mid summer our lakes waters rarely get above 80 degrees, which can cause someone in the water for an extended period to loose body core heat (Hypothermia). Watch for the warning signs of Hypothermia: purple lips, shivering, and the loss of the use of body extremities. For more information on Hypothermia see the WSC website.
Boating While Intoxicated - A person cannot operate a motorboat or sailboat while under the influence of an alcoholic beverage or other drug or a combination of such substances. The boating blood alcohol level in Iowa is now 0.08. Please be safe - alcohol and boats do not mix.
Weather � The safe boater should be alert to changing weather conditions. Most of the summer severe weather comes from the West. Weather information for the Iowa Great Lakes is available on Cable TV channel 21 and 23, KUOO 103.9 FM, KICD 1240 AM, or NOAA continuous weather broadcast on 162.55 MHz.
Aquatic Invasive Species � The Iowa Great Lakes is free of aquatic invasive species such as Eurasian Watermilfoil and the zebra muscles. Please help by always cleaning your trailer and boat before placing them in the waters of the Iowa Great Lakes.
Boat Noise � All motorboats are required to have adequate muffling devices on their boat while operating on the waters in the State of Iowa. The use of a �Captains Call� switch, which diverts the exhaust engine noise above the water line, could result in a violation the motorboat noise restrictions.
Law Enforcement � State Conservation Officers employed by the Department of Natural Resources are charged with the enforcement of Iowa boating laws. Law Enforcement boats are typically marked with "Law Enforcement" on their side and will display an emergency blue flashing light.
Accident Reporting: Whenever any boat is involved in a collision, accident or casualty, except one, which results only in property damage not exceeding $2,000 dollars, must file a report with the DNR Lake Patrol. Iowa Boat Accident Operator's Report
Communications � Emergency telephone contact for the Lake Patrol and water rescue is 911. The Lake Patrol also monitors Marine Radio channel 16 for emergency communications. Non-emergency information can be relayed to the Lake Patrol by calling the Spirit Lake Communications Center 712/ 336-2525. DNR information on docks, buoys, rafts, shoreline, fishing licenses, etc. can be obtained by calling the Spirit Lake Fish Hatchery � phone 712/ 336-1840. For Lake Patrol issues contact Conservation Officer Steve Reighard by cell phone (712) 260-1018 - OR - Jeff Morrison by cell phone (712) 260-1017.
If you observe careless boat operation, a telephone call can be made to the Spirit Lake Communications Center � NON emergency telephone 712/ 336-2525.
1) Advise the dispatcher the type of careless or illegal operation.
2) Provide a description of the boat - type, color, number of persons, etc.
3) Its present location and, if possible, its direction of travel.
The SL Communications Center can radio this information to the Lake Patrol boats. If the situation is more serious - rising to the nature of an emergency - a call to 911 will bring a faster response. Keep in mind the Lake Patrol will not always have a patrol boat in the area that can observe the careless operation and stop the offender.
Contact � The Water Safety Council is open to suggestions for ways to improve water safety. The WSC can be contacted at email firstname.lastname@example.com or by mail at PO Box 232, Spirit Lake, IA 51360.
In order to meet this requirement, any NASBLA (National Association of State Boating Law Administrators) approved boating course with the NASBLA logo will be accepted. A person in need of a water safety certificate may obtain one in the following ways:
Carbon Monoxide (CO) Poisoning
Carbon Monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas that is produced when any carbon-based fuel is burned. As a result of CO concentrations in the air, early symptoms include drowsiness, headaches, nausea, dizziness, irritated eyes and weakness. These early symptoms are often confused with sea sickness, but with extremely high concentrations or prolonged durations of exposure the result can be death.
See website: www.uscgboating.org/command/co.htm
On a boat there are numerous sources of CO, such as a gasoline engine, gasoline generator, propane, and charcoal. These are fuels that we depend on to get us to and from our destination, keep us cool, provide electricity, and heat or cool our food.
CO becomes dangerous when it collects within and around a boat. CO can enter a cabin of a boat from different sources including: hot water heaters, galley stoves, improper ventilation while in motion (the �station wagon effect�), and exhaust leaks in your boat as well as from moored boats nearby. CO can collect in areas around a boat such as: near the swim platform, which is generally found close to the engine exhaust, and areas where boat overhangs can create pockets of air
Teak Surfing or Dragging is a new activity where a swimmer holds on to the swim platform while the boat drags them through the water. This activity puts a person in direct proximity to extremely high concentrations of CO as well as a moving propeller.
Some Simple Precautions can be taken to avoid exposure to CO:
� Avoid known locations where the gas can be present.
� Have regular maintenance done on your engine and exhaust system by a trained technician.
� Install a CO detector in the cabin of a boat.
� Be aware that CO can accumulate when a boat is running its engine or generator while at a dock or seawall.
� Open hatches and keep fresh air circulating throughout the boat to avoid exhaust fumes from reentering the aft part of the boat � the station wagon effect.
� Turn off the engine or generator when people swim near the boat. Take your passengers water skiing instead of teak surfing.
� Be aware that if a passenger has the symptoms of seasickness it could be CO poisoning and they should immediately be moved to fresh air.
� Get a vessel safety check.
This section provides a short summary of safe boating information.

text: Hi Jerry, I think the vast majority of us really appreciate the mammoth effort you have put into this project, and also the steps you've taken to work around the accessibility issues that are not of your making. You truly are an inspiration to me in your career and all you have achieved, as well as your willingness to share you knowledge with us so freely and comprehensively. the Internet has many benefits, but there are negatives to it as well. One of those negatives is that it can give anyone with the skills quite the platform to trash the doers and achievers in this world, those who actually go out and achieve things while others sit on the sidelines and bleat. Sadly Jerry, some people do, others criticise and destroy. If we're going to talk about boycotts or collective action, then it's about time some of us put statements on our blogs and web sites that certain people don't speak for us. Darrell sure as hell doesn't speak for me with his incredibly embarrassing and counterproductive behaviour. Keep on keeping on. Jonathan Mosen Blog, podcast and radio show: http://www.MosenExplosion.com <http://www.mosenexplosion.com/> Ph: +1-925-566-9265. Mobile/SMS +1-806-252-6671 -----Original Message----- From: Jerry Halatyn [mailto:jhalatyn@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Sunday, 11 December 2005 12:39 a.m. To: Darrell Shandrow Cc: Adam Curry; C.C. Chapman; blindcasting@xxxxxxxxxxxxx; Marlaina Lieberg; Jeff Bishop Subject: Re: wow, what an insult Darrell, First of all, I don't subscribe to your podcast and I don't follow your journal. It was brought to my attention by someone else. Second, your facts are wrong about the song not being available to blind podcasters. The song is and always was available directly from me. Jeff asked if he could give it to other podcasters and decided to post it on his website. As I said, there was no way of ensuring that only podcasters would receive the song so, it was decided by both of us to change the method of delivery. The inaccessibility of the Podsafe Music Network is not nmy problem. Deal with it. That this is not endorsed by UNICEF is entirely correct but that has no bearing on whether it is a legitimate project. This project was only born on October 31st of this year when Adam played the tune and had the idea of making it a benefit. Do you think that anyone could've gotten UNICEF to endorse it in no time at all? Fat chance. Further, I worked my fingers to the bone for almost 30 straight days, pulling 12 to 16 hour days with no pay, no financial support from any other entity. I paid all out-of pocket expenses by myself. I registered domain names. I'm paying a designer who is designing and maintaining the website. I'm spending hours upon hours, helping people who are having trouble here and there with downloads or payments to Paypal. I'm spending hours upon hours writing and editing press releases, e-mailing mainstream media, setting up interviews. I'm about to hire a publicist to try and spread the word about this benefit project. All of this is at my own expense. I not only don't make money on this deal -- I actually lose money. These are all, of course, facts that you would have no knowledge of but would just as soon not need to come to your conclusion that it's not a project worth supporting and even boycotting. And you say no good deed goes unpunished? yes, indeed, how true it is. You have clearly illustrated this adage. You're so clueless that you don't even realize how insulting you can be. Further, you have no concept of how you come across to others. You've demonstrated that publicly. Feel free to express your opinions publicaly and I'll do the same. ----- Original Message ----- From: Darrell <mailto:nu7i@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Shandrow To: Slau <mailto:slau@xxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, December 11, 2005 12:39 AM Subject: Re: wow, what an insult Hey Jerry, Glad to see you listening and reading the journal. :-) Unfortunately, due to requests for a number of changes Jeff felt the need to take down the accessible means to download the song, thus this avenue is no longer available to us. PMN is currently inaccessible, both in use and registration. Those are the facts. Jeff made a way for us to get the song and to report back on who was downloading it. That was extremely fair. That method had to be taken down. Little or no consideration was given to the hours Jeff spent setting it all up in the first place. In any case, there is no insult intended here. There is no other way for podcasters to freely download the song for play on their podcasts other than PMN, which is still inaccessible. I'm disappointed and upset with you for some things surrounding the project, and I have a right to publicly express my displeasure. Everything I am saying is based on the facts, including the fact that this is not an official UNICEF project officially endorsed by that charity, so we have no way of knowing, 100 percent certain, where the proceeds will go. Facts. Sorry. Especially due to the accessibility issues, I feel completely free to make sure all the facts are obvious for everyone, as well as to discourage others from playing this on their shows. Lesson should be learned next time to make sure the needs of your blind brothers and sisters are correctly and completely accomodated in all that you do. Whenever that is not the case, you may expect flack from accessibility evangelists such as myself. ----- Original Message ----- From: Slau <mailto:slau@xxxxxxxx> To: Darrell Shandrow <mailto:nu7i@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, December 10, 2005 6:35 PM Subject: wow, what an insult Wow, how insulting that you would be dissappointed in my accommodation for blind persons to download a broadcast copy of the Podsafe for Peace song. I actually went out of my way to make sure it was available through Jeff Bishop's site. You've obviously not considered the fact that people with no podcast feeds were downloading the song. What kind of sense is that? Downloading a song for free that's supposed to be a fund-raiser? Thanks a lot.

Hire a Professional to Settle an Injury Claim
If you are in Dallas, it is always advisable to have a Dallas Personal Injury Attorney in contact to get supported the very moment you are in crisis. An injury attorney in Dallas handles lawsuits on behalf of people who were injured because of someone else's negligence or carelessness. The accused party may be an individual or a company to whom the injured person works or where the injured person was shopping. The personal injury law is very much stringent in Dallas and covers automobile and other accidents, medical malpractice, wrongful death and other similar claims. As per the personal injury law, until the case is settled both the injured person and the accused person are equally considered guilty.
As been suggested by the Personal Injury Lawyer in Dallas at the time of trial the injured person has to explain in court that he/she tried to avert mishap by all means. Now, if it is found that the accident occurred only due to the carelessness of the injured person like disregarding the traffic signal or the warning signs the compensation claim will be annulled. The personal injury case turns more difficult if it is found that some other person was engaged to the mishap. In such case that person will have to provide evidence that the mishap was not actually attributable to his/her recklessness. That is the reason why it is always wise to stay in touch with an experienced Dallas Injury Attorney to make a perfect approach at the time of hearing.
A Dallas Personal Injury Attorney helps in obtaining compensation for the damage caused by an accident that was not the client's fault. So, what such compensations normally cover? As per the common personal injury cases the compensation may cover lost wages, medical expenses, the replacement or repair of the damaged property and similar other losses. An Injury Attorney in Dallas can help you obtain these compensations by negotiating with insurance companies and any responsible parties on the client's behalf. An efficient Dallas Personal Injury Attorney will ensure that you are not forced to give up any rights during the settlement of the case. Now, in worst situation, if the injury case cannot be settled, you will find the Dallas Injury Attorney taking the responsibility to represent your case to the court.
A Dallas Personal Injury Attorney works on contingency fee. If you win the settlement or a verdict with the help of a lawyer, he/she will be paid a certain percentage of the settlement or verdict amount. Now this amount varies with the state. However, that remains within 30 to 40 percent of the total amount awarded or compensated to the injured person. If the lawyer fails win a settlement or loses at trial, he/she will get no fee at all. However, no matter if the lawyer wins or loses, you being the client must still pay for the costs such as court fees, postage etc. Well, it is always advisable that you find the most efficient Personal Injury Lawyer in Dallas not only concerning over their fees but also their portfolio or experience in handling the cases similar to yours. It is always wise to make a comparison between the city lawyers before hiring one to deal with such crucial cases.

I seem to have problems detecting when a girl wants to bump uglies with me. I am really shy, and can't seem to pull the trigger. How do I know – what should I look for? or maybe I shouldn't care?

Other special guests included families of Muslim victims of the 9/11 attacks, as well as Muslim members of the US Armed Services.

"The British have violated the rules. It is not the EU philosophy that the crowd can decide its fate"-- Martin Schulz, President of the EU parliament
During Friday's bloodbath I heard a CNBC anchor lady assuring her (scant) remaining audience that Brexit wasn't a big sweat. That's because it is purportedly a political crisis, not a financial one.
Presumably in the rarified canyons of Wall Street, politics doesn't matter much. After all, when things get desperate enough, Washington caves and does "whatever it takes" to get the stock averages moving upward again.
Here's a news flash. That's all about to change.
The era of Bubble Finance was enabled by a political abdication nearly 50 years ago. But as Donald Trump rightly observed in the wake of Brexit, the voters are about to take back their governments, meaning that the financial elites of the world are in for a rude awakening.

When an act nails a sound as well as Metronomy did with their jittery electronica on 2011's The English Riviera, it's easy to expect more of the same on their next release.
But the brains behind the Devon foursome Joseph Mount doesn't possess an "if it ain't broke" kind of attitude.
When it came to recording follow up Love Letters, avove, set for release on Monday, Mount to took measures to ensure the band weren't simply going to recreate their past work.
The band have a habit of reinventing themselves on each record, and their fourth album is no different.
Joseph told the Beat: "In a way, I wanted to do something that was a bit more lyrically confident and interesting. I wanted to get better at writing songs in a more traditional way. I always want to do something that keeps me feeling like I'm moving forward.
"I think all this comes down to perceptions of Metronomy and of what we do. I've always seen there as being more to what I do than being an electronic musician or something like that.
"I guess a role I'm growing into a bit more is as a lyricist. I never set out just to make dance music, or something like that. I've always had more interest in a wider world of music."
The band took themselves to Toe Rag Studios in Hackney, London a completely analog studio. Joseph said: "I guess if you're making electronic music, it seems like you would use computers and stuff.
"But people were making electronic music in one way or another before computers started being used for making music.
"There's more to this record than beats and stuff. I felt it would be interesting for a band like Metronomy to record in a studio which you don't necessarily associate with Metronomy.
"Previously it has all been recorded digitally, yeah. I guess the sound of it is quite different. There's something about the quality of the recording.
"Part of the reason I did it was because I wanted it to change how I wrote songs and the kinds of songs I wrote. I think that's the biggest effect it had.
"If you're recording like that you can't really write in the same way you do on a computer. I was trying to avoid using computers because I knew that it would add something to the way I write songs.
"I just think it's more delicate, a more instant record. I think lyrically it's more interesting than anything I've done, certainly a bit more confident in that respect.
"To people who are fans of the more dancey stuff, it might seem like a bit more of a subdued record but it has its moments as well."
The move has had a telling affect on Metronomy. As record obsessives will tell you, analog recordings simply sound better.
It may involve a lot more work than digital recording, but it delivers a richer, fuller sound.
And as Metronomy ease the accelerator on their uptempo electronic pop to incorporate elements of Motown and 60's girls groups, the results are all the more rewarding.
The title track for example, calls to mind David Bowie in his soulbending Young Americans phase, delivered with the same zest and personal spin the Thin White Duke did so well.
Mount says the success Metronomy found on the English Riviera, has driven him to expand their sound and surprise his audience.
He said: "I think being successful isn't the initiating thing that makes you want to do music.
"But every time you do a record and more people come to you, then you realise that you've got this amazing opportunity to give these people more music and they'll be interested.
"Every time Metronomy becomes more successful I feel really excited about it. I knew that after the last record that there would be a lot more people interested in the next album.
"So for me, sort of giving those people something that is perhaps not what they imagined, but still good, I was very excited by.
"That's what I write like about becoming more successful, is that you have more people to p*** off or surprise."
In the Spotify era, many artists are turning away from the album format in favour of singles and EPs, which offer the appeal of being short enough to compete with the modern attention span.
But Mount has ambitions that he says couldn't be achieved in such a short running time, and refuses to let the overload of available media dictate his music.
He said: "Albums are what I will always do I think For me there's a kind of irrelevance in the argument for not doing albums.
"I kind of think that there's things you can do in an album in 40 minutes, that you can only really do in that format.
"I think that people are always going to make albums. I guess if you think that you've got enough good songs to make an album, then you'd make an album. That's what I am really interested in doing, really."
Mount, who resides in France for most of the year, agrees that there's a very European sound to Metonomy's music and he feels that English acts sometimes get too caught up in sounding, well, English.
He said: "I live in Paris, so I'm kind of a bit cut off from what's happening in England. I think you probably get a lot of English groups who are a bit too concerned about England.
"In a way being in Europe and looking out around you and seeing England as one of however many countries it is that make up Europe, is a much more healthy way to look at the world.
"There is actually lots of really interesting music from different music from different parts of the world, not just England. I think it's nice to kind of embrace the best of other countries as well."
Metronomy play the Olympia Theatre, Dublin on Wednesday, March 12. Doors 7.30pm, tickets priced €22. Love Letters is out on Monday, March 10

Cal-Mag FIZZ Description from Baywood
The FIZZ IZ BetterCal-Mag FIZZ contains optimal amounts of daily calcium and magnesium in elemental form, in a great tasting effervescent drink that is more absorbable than solid supplements, easier to ingest, and is gentler on your stomach. Our special epical blend of 4 different forms of ionized calcium in our exclusive effervescent formula is one of the most affordable and bioavailable forms of calcium available today. Cal-Mag FIZZ combines magnesium, vitamin D, vitamin B complex and select trace minerals for a complete formula to support, strengthen and maintain health bones and teeth.
Citric Acid, fructose, potassium bicarbonate, sodium bicarbonate, natural flavor, stevia.
Manufacturer's Directions
One (1) scoop twice daily in eight (8) or more ounces of water or fruit juice. Less or more liquid may be used depending on individual taste preferences. Wait 60 seconds to allow ingredients to dissolve completely before consuming.
Manufacturer's Disclaimer
Keep out of the reach of children. As with all dietary supplements. Consult your physician or healthcare professional before use. Store in a cool, dry place.
In my opinion much better than prescription Ambion that my doc tried on me. I take a couple minutes before bedtime and sleep soundly, plus taken about a half hour before a BP test and it makes my blood pressure come in at 173/ 75, which is very good.
I cant handle the large calcium pills but I have almost every risk factor for osteoporosis. Just add a scoop to a large glass of water twice a day and meet your requirements without having to swallow a horse capsule, The magnesium also helps maintain a happy mood -- and healthy bowels :
I buy this product all the time. Everyone in my family likes it and the price is excellent. I have used more expensive cal mag products for years and this one has all the benefits at a lower cost. Im quite happy with it and the flavors are good. We like lemon-lime and berry the best.
This is the best kept secret, when it comes to immediate help from a food supplement! Everyone knows that Calcium and Magnesium are musts, but few know the magic of putting it into liquid form. My husband would mix some in an 20 oz soda bottle and keep it by the bed for night time leg cramps, which would disappear as soon as he drank a little.
I do the same thing and find that within minutes sore or aching muscles relax and the pain vanishes and the next thing I know, its morning!
This also helps with regularity. On an empty stomach it can work FAST. At one time, only take the recommended amount.
This is fabulous stuff!

Welcome to this classic log cabin on the shores of pristine Farrington Pond. Nestled between upper and lower Kezar Lake this inviting year round home provides a perfect place to vacation and relax with your loved ones. Whether on the dock or on the screened porch you will enjoy the peaceful solitude of a lakeside mountain retreat. After a day of swimming, sailing, canoeing, fishing, hiking, skiing or reading, enjoy a campfire under a canopy of stars, and listen to the call of the loons
This cabin features a Maine field stone fireplace in a spacious cathedral ceiling great room which includes the kitchen, dining and living area. With lovely views of the water and mountains, the cabin is ideal for couples or a family gathering. A hot tub, pool table, backgammon and other games, internet and cable TV are all provided.
Additionally, golf, skiing and extensive mountain hikes are all at hand. The towns of North Conway, Bridgton, Fryeburg and Bethel are short excursions offering skiing, shopping, theaters and restaurants. We are only one hour from Portland and less than three hours from Boston. This idyllic Maine experience beckons!
Our family of 8 gathered at this lovely cabin from all points to share a wonderful 2 week vacation full of relaxation. The house was as described and had everything you could need for a vacation rental. The lake and the view were gorgeous. We spent our days swimming, cooking and hiking the nearby trails. Perhaps the best part of this amazing spot is the sense of remoteness and quiet. There are only a few other camps on the pond, and even on the 4th of July they were not full or loud. No motor boats and only the sound of our kids playing in the lake made this one of the most relaxing vacations I can remember. Thank you for sharing your wonderful home.
This rental was everything I'd hoped for and more. Loons calling, herons and osprey flying overhead, and turtles basking in the sun greeted us within minutes of arriving. The home has rustic charm with all the comforts one could want, including a private hot tub tucked against the back of the home with a lovely forest view of the pond. The peaceful views from the cabin were among my favorite parts of my stay because I felt constantly enveloped in beautiful nature.
We enjoyed our 4-night stay with family in this beautiful home. Everything was perfect, from the comfort of the beds with down comforters, to the pool table and hot tub. Our 3 kids and their 1 yr old cousin, plus my in-laws had ample space. The fireplace is so inviting and there is so much light from all the windows overlooking the woods and pond. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed, and the layout worked great for our group. I highly recommend.
Our time spent on the pond was better than we could have ever imagined. It was truly beautiful and a time my friends and I will hold dear to us for the rest of our lives. We really couldn't have asked for a better experience. Everything we needed was provided, anytime we would question if something was there, we would find whatever it is we were looking for a second later. The property itself is stunning and now holds such a special place in my friends and I hearts. I would highly recommend this property to anyone with a group of friends or family. Our time on the pond now seems like a dream but thankfully we all can remind each other it wasn't! I thank you so much for creating such a beautiful space in where others like my friends and myself were able to have a vacation we will never forget.
We spent a long weekend at the cabin and enjoyed every minute! We were a three generation family - ages ranging from 1.5 to 70. Everyone had a wonderful time. The cabin is beautifully design, and super comfortable. The lake is amazing - quiet and very private. We had so much fun sitting on the dock, swimming and using the canoe. Leslie was extremely nice and helpful. In the house we found fun games for the kids, and great directions to nearby hikes. It was a perfect early summer weekend and we very much hope to have the opportunity to be back soon.
We had a great stay at the cottage! The place is so peaceful and quiet. I don't think we saw another person on the pond the entire weekend.
Thanks again
2 canoes, 1 kayak, 1 sunfish, a few fishing rods, and a fire pit area lakeside.

E3's most talked about and newly anticipated game Watch Dogs was unveiled. I can not explain how excited for this game I am. The story revolves around a rogue and wanted hacker who is part of a larger group. Violence and technology combine as you are able to trigger bridges, jam communications, and have information on every citizen at your fingertips. It also takes place in a top-notch Chicago replica, which is something I wanted in an open-world game since GTA3. Watch the trailer and join me in my silly giddiness.

This Friday, IFC has two really awesome shows premiering that I'm super excited about. One is the television adaptation of riotous comedy podcast Comedy Bang! Bang!. It's basically a very twisted talk show hosted by Scott Aukerman (co-creator of Zach Galifianakis's Between Two Ferns) and hilarious music-man Reggie Watts. The other great show is Bunk. Bunk is in a nutshell a game-show for comedians, where they compete for ludicrous prizes (learning how to ride a bike; meeting your birth-parents), play strange games (such as "give that bitch some arms", where they try to draw the funniest yet most creative arms for Venus de Milo), and it's of course hosted by the nicest-looking yet incredibly dark-humoured young comedians in the business, Kurt Braunohler. This week I watched a preview of Bunk on IFC's website, and if you get the chance, check it out! You'll undoubtedly crack up!

1. RunDisney announced the addition of a 10k to their race lineup for Walt Disney World Marathon Week in January 2014. They also announced the addition of the Dopey Challenge which will consist of running the 5k Thursdy, 10K Friday, half marathon Saturday, and full marathon Sunday. Sounds like a blast to me, but I'm also half crazy 😉 Here is my post with more info: Dopey Challenge post
2. Bulu Box is a brand that I am an ambassador for and I can't be happier. I love finding great vitamins, supplements, and weight loss products. I also love getting a fun box every month! It is like getting a surprise present! You can get a 6 month subscription for $60. With this code you can get $10 off so it would only be $50. If you just want to try it for a month you can use this code to get a free month to try. It would also be a nice gift subscription for someone. Just click on this link: http://www.bulubox.com?acc=c0c7c76d30bd3dcaefc96f40275bdc0a and use this code: BULUGAN728
3. I am running the More/Fitness Magazine Women's Half Marathon in NYC in a couple weeks. I'm debating on what to wear. Batgirl? Or should I go with my purple, yellow or light blue Team Sparkle skirt? Or one of my cute Running Skirts? I'm indecisive.
4. Did you see my post about winning a trip to the Hyundai Santa Fe Epic Playdate in Santa Barbara? It is a trip for 4 to Santa Barbara and an invite to the exclusive invite only playdate on the beach with ice cream, paint fights, and hula hoops! Need I say more?

Last night went to "Disney on Ice – Princess Classics" at the Denver Coliseum. What a fun night! My kids are 8 and 10, and while some people might feel they'd be "too old", who's too old for some of their favorite childhood characters AND some fantastic skating!
First, I think this is one of my favorite venues. If you park in the large lot, the parking is free and the people who work there are nice, polite and eager to help (we had to ask directions a few times). It's not as posh as the Pepsi Center, but I think it's just easier to get around in.
We were lucky enough to see "Disney on Ice, Let's Celebrate" at the Pepsi Center earlier this year and although that show was great, I have to say I thought this one was better. The costumes were fabulous! Gorgeous dresses and many costume changes with fun songs and – have I mentioned this before? – some awesome ice skating! The stories were easy to follow (short recreations of the Princess stories) and so fun for the kids to relive all their favorite Princess Movies (Missy C remembered she needed to see "Mulan" again! 🙂 )
The show highlights all the "favorite" princesses (although my son was disappointed that Princess and a Frog weren't represented – grin!) with Snow White, Belle, Sleeping Beauty, Mulan, Ariel, and Cinderella (with the entire Cinderella story being told after the intermission!).
My only complaint, as usual, is you have to take out a second mortgage to buy any of the collectibles at the event. Snowcones (in collectible cups) were a whopping $15.
The proof that my kids had an awesome time:

Will everyone trying to give Emily Maynard and Jef Holm the Bachelor curse quit already?!
The engaged couple have been trying to justify their relationship the minute the cameras stopped rolling, after numerous rumors began swirling that their relationship was either under turmoil or totally fake.
Well, the duo are setting the record straight (again) and discussed their relationship with E! News at the San Diego Film Festival Wednesday night.

One thing to say about last night's results is that I hope we can someday put to rest this business of misusing and over-interpreting early exit polls. At this point, it's very well established that these polls have a marked tendency to oversample young voters and thus produce erroneously optimistic forecasts about Democrats running against Republicans or about Obama running against Clinton. Nevertheless, media circles are constantly awash in this information and if you have it in front of you, you can watch it influencing the live coverage on the TV networks as the hosts find themselves surprised when the polls turn out to be wrong.
It's dumb. It's not even that the methodology behind exit polling doesn't work. Rather, part of the methodology involves taking some time, getting further data, doing some re-weighting and so forth, etc. There's no excuse for perpetually acting shocked that the early exit polls don't forecast the outcome.

E-Trade Looks To Junk Improper Maintenance Fee Action
Customers Joseph Roling and Alexander Landvater, who originally sued the company in 2010, allege that E-Trade's charging and collecting fees not permitted by its contract with its customers constituted a deceptive or misleading practice under New York's General Business Law Section 349, according to E-Trade's motion to dismiss the...

text: StillKirok Report post Posted February 28, 2017 Just thinking about this today. It seems a little ridiculous that no one could duplicate Data's brain. Soong was a genius, and I get that. Cool.But the entire Federation, with all its wonders and geniuses, including a planet full of Vulcans couldn't reverse engineer Data? Inventing things from scratch is hard, but reverse engineering is nowhere near as hard, especially when dealing with the kind of technology that already exists. And even in that unlikely event that no one could duplicate the process, wouldn't a computer, with the precise scanning, be able to do that? Even Data couldn't do it, and that makes no sense.I think that was a bit of a flaw in Data's story, especially since there were super duper advanced androids 100 years earlier. They might have been better off coming up with some sort of material that Data is made of that is very rare as a means of not being able to duplicate him.

Béla Berger
Béla Berger (12 August 1931, Szombathely, Hungary – December 2005, Sydney, Australia) was a Hungarian-Australian chess master.
He took 5th in the Hungarian Championship at Budapest 1953 (Béla Sándor won).[1] In 1954, he played for Hungary "B" at fourth board in 1st Triennial Cup in Budapest.[2]
After the failure of the Hungarian Revolution of 1956, Berger left Hungary for Australia, where he won the New South Wales state title in 1957 and 1961. He played in the Australian Championship in Sydney in 1958/59, finishing second with 11.5 points, behind Lajos Steiner's 12.5.
National champion John Purdy was one of Australia's two representatives at the 1963 Pacific Zone 10 Championship in Jakarta. There was a quadrangular selection tournament in Melbourne for the second spot. Bela Berger and Karlis Ozols tied for first; the selectors voted in favour of Berger 3-0.
In Jakarta, he tied for first with Indonesia's Arovah Bachtiar on 5.5/8, and won the playoff 2-1 after 3 games. A fourth game was won by Bachtiar, but it had no bearing on the outcome, as the tiebreak system used favoured Berger. As zonal champion, he became an International Master.
He went on to play in the 1964 Interzonal tournament in Amsterdam, with 18 grandmasters and 6 international masters, finishing 23rd out of 24. The joint winners were Vasily Smyslov, Bent Larsen, Mikhail Tal and Boris Spassky.[3]
Berger tied for 7-8th at Manila 1968 (Meralco Open, Svetozar Gligorić won).[4]
In 1991, he won a short match against Charles Pizzato (2 : 0).[5]

Google has announced that it has produced an "interactive virtual reality" movie that can be watched using its VR mobile device.
"You're sitting at a table in the center of a restaurant and you can interact with six stories, listening to the conversations on the other tables," Google says.
"'Tabel' uses an audio technique that lets you follow one story at a time or jump between stories just by looking around the restaurant."

The Photosynth team has put together a new "Photosynth app" to create Photosynth panoramas on your mobile device. Photosynth panoramas are a little different from typical synths in that they are a single stitched image of a space, rather than a lot of individual images from different angles that're bound together in a explorable volumetric space.
Eric Bennett at Vertical World talk about how it works using Tony Ernst as our climbing shooter.

Rules & Eligibility
- Both individuals must be 18 or older at the time of entry.
- Online registration must be completed no later than Dec. 31, 2017 at 11:59 p.m. PT.
- The Mentee has either 1) never had a hunting license until 2017, 2) only had a hunting license in 2016 (e.g. a second year hunter) or 3) not had a hunting license in the past five consecutive years (since 2012).
- Both individuals must have a valid 2017 Oregon hunting license and have either gone hunting together or intend to hunt sometime between Jan. 1-Dec. 31, 2017.
- Immediate family members are eligible to be mentors or mentees, as well as non-resident hunters.
- Safe, ethical and legal hunting must be practiced.
- Both individuals must follow rules and regulations in the 2017 Oregon Big Game and Game Bird Hunting Regulations. This includes the purchase and possession of all appropriate tags and validations by both the mentor and mentee (e.g. mentee may not hunt on the mentor's tags like the Youth Mentor Program). In a situation where only one of the hunters draws a controlled big game hunt tag, the hunter without a tag may accompany his/her friend on the hunt but may not hunt. This means the hunter without a tag should not carry a rifle or bow in the field and cannot take a shot at the big game animal using their friend's rifle or bow. Hunters without a controlled big game tag may carry a shotgun and hunt upland birds during valid bird seasons.
- Both individuals must follow the four basic rules of hunter safety which can be remembered as "MATT":
- Muzzle – Control the direction of your muzzle at all times.
- Trigger – Keep your finger outside of the trigger guard until ready to shoot.
- Action – Treat every firearm as though it were loaded – open the action, and visually check to see if it is loaded. Firearms should be unloaded with actions open when not actually in use.
- Target – Be sure of your target, and what is in front of it and beyond it.
- Program participants who do not meet the above eligibility requirements will be withdrawn from the contest.
- ODFW employees are not eligible to enter the contest. Volunteers such as ODFW hunter education instructors are eligible to enter.
- Winners will be drawn and contacted in January of 2018.

Premier League high-flyers Tottenham Hotspur were held to a shock goalless draw away to third tier Stevenage in the FA Cup fifth round on Sunday and face a replay to reach the quarter-finals.
League One Stevenage demonstrated excellent defensive organisation and no little skill in attack to keep a Spurs side managed by Harry Redknapp, favourite for the permanent England job, at bay.
Spurs did have the ball in the back of the net early in the second half when Louis Saha turned in Danny Rose's low cross.
But the Frenchman's effort was ruled out for offside after a linesman spotted the striker's shot had clipped the offside Scott Parker before hitting the net.
However, few could deny Stevenage deserved a money spinning replay trip to Spurs' White Lane ground, such was the way the team from Hertfordshire, north-west of London, kept going right until the end.
In an earlier Cup tie on Sunday, Stoke won 2-0 away to fourth-tier Crawley Town despite playing most of the match a man down after Rory Delap was sent off.
Goals either side of half-time, courtesy of a Jonathan Walters penalty and a Peter Crouch header, saw Stoke, last season's beaten finalists, make it into the last eight.
Stoke's victory ended the FA Cup run of League Two side Crawley, the lowest-ranked club left in the tournament, who also reached the fifth round stage of English football's leading knockout competition last season.
But Premier League Stoke suffered an early setback when Delap was shown a straight red card by referee Mike Jones for a lunging challenge on David Hunt in the 17th minute.
"We're one win away from Wembley again and it would be lovely if we could get a home tie," said Stoke manager Tony Pulis, whose side have had three away matches in this season's competition.
Asked about Delap's red card, he added: "There is a big problem within the game in that I think professional people and referees are so far apart in what they see in terms of what are fair challenges or competitive challenges and the bad, reckless challenges.
"We had a fourth official (Lee Probert) today who I think has got Rory sent off.
"He has refereed a game against Liverpool and not even booked a player for what was the worst challenge in the Premier League this year in (Yohan) Cabaye's challenge on (Jay) Spearing.
"Lee was five yards away and the difference between what we think and sometimes what referees think is enormous."
Crawley manager Steve Evans was also unhappy with the officiating.
"I think we're unfortunate to go out this year," he said. "I think I probably take it harder this year than I did going out at Manchester United.
"I can't help but be disappointed by the match referee. I think from a second-half perspective, he has had a poor game for me and he is normally a very good referee."
Sunday's other tie sees Liverpool at home to Championship side Brighton.
Premier League teams Everton, Bolton and Sunderland are all in Sunday's draw for the quarter-finals following wins on Saturday.
So too are second tier Championship team Leicester, who beat Premier League Norwich 2-1 on Saturday in the only upset win of the fifth round so far.
Chelsea will also be in the hat but they must beat Birmingham in a replay to be sure of a quarter-final spot after being held to a 1-1 draw on Saturday.

Jessica Kartalis says she didn't grow up trying to grab the spotlight. Quite the opposite, actually, until she picked up an instrument.
"I was really shy when I was younger," the 19-year-old Staten Island native says.
"That guitar was kind of like my shield."
It gave her enough confidence to audition on national TV during "American Idol's" last season, as well as book steady gigs at some of Atlantic City's newest attractions this summer, including LandShark Bar and Grill and at the bar inside The Steel Pier, where she covers popular music.
Her next step is a planned trip to Nashville, where she expects work on her debut EP of original music. She says she is going for a pop, rock and country style, but aspires to be more like Jennifer Nettles, of the duo Sugarland, than Taylor Swift.
"I want everyone to have fun hearing my music," she says.
"I want people to listen to my music and forget about their worries."
It's all been a relatively quick progression for Kartalis. She turns 20 years old this summer, only five years after she first started performing, but she already says this is what she wants to spend her life pursuing.
"It's really cool that I could get to do what I want to do," she says.

Well, Someone did it. finally.
Someone got SO tired walking around looking for stuff, and they had the coding know how, they decided to create Pokevision. Yup. You boot up this little bad boy on your phone and boom, there are all your little hidden Pokemon with timers on them. It's a convenient website that uses map data and overlays the Pokemon Go! data. Why this wasn't done sooner? Who knows. Who cares. Here is the map of Palmer, Ak showing you the unique Pokemon.

Charity, social enterprise and for-profit

Charity, social enterprise and for-profit
With the launch of this year's selection process we are already getting a few questions from potential applicants asking whether we support for-profit organisations, whether we just support charities and what our take on social enterprise is. Having pulled together some brief answers on this in our FAQs, we thought it might be good to explain some of our reasoning and thinking here in more detail.
Our current offerings for this are based on our latest strategy (full details of which will be revealed shortly!).
Ultimately at Social Entrepreneurs Ireland what we care about is that the best ideas for social change get the right support to help them to succeed. That is our vision. And in that context it doesn't really matter to us whether the organisation is a charity, a social enterprise or a for-profit. Each of these models have different advantages and disadvantages associated with them, but all three models have the potential to make a positive social impact in Ireland.

The finalists will now embark upon a three month programme of support and evaluation, designed to help them to clearly define the problem they are trying to address and refine their solution. They will receive in depth support and professional consultation before the announcement of the 2013 Award winners in October. Three Social Entrepreneurs will be awarded the top level "Impact Award" and €130,000 in direct funding with over €70,000 worth of support over two years.

Timeline of the birth of a social entrepreneur

Getting started
Timeline of the birth of a Social Entrepreneur
By Myles McCorry
Step 1: Elation of idea. Can't get over your own brilliance. (2 weeks)
Step 2: Talk yourself into resolving the problem. Feel like Gandhi. (4-5 weeks)
Step 3: HOW?? Feeling low, as you have told your partner and committed yourself – and only now do you see how tall the mountain that you have chosen to climb is. But you do it any way. (7 weeks)
Step 4: A friends son does you a web site and you feel like you are Kofi Annan Presiding over the UN for 20 minutes. The idea has legs and you are running.
Step 5: You realize it is not actually financially viable or someone (anyone!) would have done this before (5 days). You trip and fall – but get up stronger.
Step 6: Who can give me money; sure it's a good cause. (This lasts from that point for the whole duration of the project)
Keep running.
