text: Chester-le-Street - Stuart Broad insisted England could cope with the spin-friendly pitches they will face when defending their World Twenty20 title in Sri Lanka after a thumping loss to South Africa.England fell 1-0 behind in a three-match 'warm-up' series for this month's World Twenty20 after a seven-wicket defeat by the Proteas here on Saturday.Sent into bat, England could only manage 118 for seven - their third lowest Twenty20 total. Opener Craig Kieswetter made 25 and the next best scores were the 18 not outs of both Twenty20 captain Broad and fellow lower order batsman Graeme Swann.Fast bowler Dale Steyn was named man-of-the-match for his one for 13 in four overs but the fact that South Africa spinners Johan Botha and Robin Peterson shared four wickets between them, several the result of poor shots, would have concerned the England management.Eoin Morgan played on heaving across the line against Botha and Jos Buttler, hailed as one of England's most promising batsmen, charged down the pitch before being bowled by left-armer Peterson."We didn't play the spin especially well today. But we've got good players of spin in there," said Broad.'Morg's (Morgan) is a fantastic player of spin. We've seen him dominate it in the past - it just didn't come off for us today."Jos Buttler in training hits the ball further than anyone."We want guys to have the freedom to go for that boundary option. You don't want to curb that enthusiasm too much. "But obviously today it didn't work out for us, and we need to put that right in a very short turnaround," Broad added ahead of Monday's second match of the series in Manchester."I think it was quite a good wicket to bowl spin on, because the ball didn't really come on. The advantage they (South Africa) then had when batting was that they didn't have to take a risk against Swanny."I think one thing we have to be very aware of is you win games of Twenty20 cricket with numbers eight, nine, 10 and 11 not batting. So we have to take the responsibility of having a batsman there at the end."England are heading to Sri Lanka without Kevin Pietersen, man of the tournament when they won the World Twenty20 in the Caribbean two years ago, as the star batsman's international exile continues following his banishment after sending "provocative texts" to South African players earlier in the season.One man England had hoped could help make-up for Pietersen's absence was Essex all-rounder Ravi Bopara.But his run of low scores continued Saturday when he was out for six in all too familiar fashion, caught at slip pushing tentatively outside off stump against Steyn.In four innings during the preceding drawn one-day series against the Proteas, Bopara managed scores of 16, nought, six and nought, with his medium-pace bowling now his main trump card. "Ravi's struggled the last couple of weeks, but he's working very hard on putting that right," said Broad, one of eight survivors from England's victorious 2010 squad heading to Sri Lanka. "We hope Ravi can get back to that, because he'll be an important player for us in Sri Lanka -- not just with the bat, but I think his bowling will be useful on those sorts of wickets."

The Balearic Islands
The three famous Balearic Islands starting with Ibiza, continuing with Majorca and finishing with Menorca patiently wait for their visitors on the eastern side of the coast belonging to the Mediterranean Sea. Formentera is the fourth island composing the Balearic Islands, the paradise on earth as some say. The islands form an Autonomous Community which has Mallorca as capital and even though Catalan is their official language; each island has its own dialect. If you visit the Balearic Islands, you will be welcomed by 300 days of sunshine every year, exquisite beaches, cities with an amazing cultural and architectural design and a lot of fun.
Going to Ibiza
Probably the most famous Balearic Island, Ibiza is popular for its agitated nightlife. Apart from the nightlife, Ibiza also has great beaches with delicate sands and the water of the Mediterranean Sea is of a crystal blue, making it great for a bath. The young tourists love Ibiza as its nightlife is legendary; however this is not the only attraction of the island. Ibiza has no less than 72 beaches as well as a wonderful selection of restaurants, bars and pubs and an interesting countryside which offers beautiful landscapes.
Visiting Majorca
Out of the four Balearic Islands, this is the largest and it has been a wonderful seaside destination starting with the 1960s. The city is full of sightseeing monuments which should definitely be on your list such as the Gothic Cathedral or the Bellver Castel. They managed to survive, even though the country developed really fast in an attempt to keep pace with the millions of tourists that visit it every year. Majorca is also a great place for gourmet ones, as the cuisine is absolutely fantastic.
The wonderful Menorca
Menorca is also known as the hidden paradise as the effect which comes along with mass tourism is not felt here. Menorca has managed to keep its rustic appearance alive, so you will be welcomed by some of the most beautiful landscapes you have ever seen. The beaches are idyllic and if you visit its capital Mahon, you have the chance to see the biggest natural harbor in this part of Europe. The pavement bars and pubs assure the nightlife entertainment that the young love so much.
The smallest Balearic Island is also the one that has remained unspoilt. Formentera is the perfect place for those who just want to relax on a wonderful beach.

Kip Moore's 'Somethin' 'Bout a Truck' Earns Gold Status
Kip Moore is on one heck of a ride to country superstar status. Not only does he have a critically-acclaimed debut album on the shelves, as well as a new music video and a No. 1 hit song for his latest single, 'Somethin' 'Bout a Truck,' but he also recently just found out that the song has been certified gold for sales exceeding 500,000 digital downloads.
Moore received the good news while on stage in Knoxville, Tenn. last weekend when opening up for David Nail and Billy Currington. And he couldn't have been in a better place to get the plaque, standing in front of the fans who helped earn him such honors.
"That was a complete surprise," Moore recently told GAC's 'Headline Country.' "I still can't wrap my head around a gold record. You hope for those things to happen, but you don't expect them to happen. You're so used to things not happening, and then when they finally do, it's like, 'Who's playing a joke on me?'"
This week, 'Somethin' 'Bout a Truck' is sitting at the No. 1 position on both the Billboard and Mediabase / Country Aircheck country singles chart. Moore's new album 'Up All Night' — which features 'Somethin' 'Bout a Truck' — is in stores now.

With manually scheduled tasks, Project provides an alternative to automatically scheduled tasks and offers the project manager more control over the schedule.
In this article
The big picture: How is a project scheduled?
Manual scheduling gives users complete control over how tasks are scheduled. Let's look at this more closely so that you don't miss any key features.
Project can schedule tasks using two methods: manual scheduling and automatic scheduling With manual scheduling, changes to factors such as task dependencies, constraints, and project calendars do not automatically adjust task dates.
Note: Tasks are manually scheduled by default. Project managers who are accustomed to automatic scheduling can turn the manual scheduling feature off for specific tasks or for the entire project. Some projects, especially complicated ones, may require Project's powerful scheduling engine to take care of scheduling for you.
1. Two manually scheduled tasks. The Duration is a text value, not a number. Since the duration is a text value, a start date hasn't been set automatically by Project.
2. Two automatically scheduled tasks. The Duration is a number value. Since the duration is a number value, a start date has been automatically set by Project, and a bar is displayed.
Manually scheduled tasks
You can place a manually scheduled task placed anywhere in your schedule, and Project won't move it. This new feature gives you greater flexibility and control over planning and managing their schedule.
Why would you care? Well, at times project schedules are often very informal. They begin as simple lists of dates from e-mails, meeting with stakeholders, or a hallway conversation. Project managers very often do not have complete information on work items. For example, they may only be aware of when a task needs to be started, but not its duration until they have an estimate from their team members. Also, they may know how long a task will take, but they do not know it can be started until they have approval from the resource manager.
Here are some things to keep in mind with manually scheduled tasks.
You'll never be left in the dark. Manually scheduled tasks have their own indicators and task bars to help you distinguish them from the "classic" automatically scheduled tasks.
Anything goes. When a task is in manually scheduled mode, the Start, Finish, and Duration columns can be blank or include text values in addition to recognizable dates.
Switching scheduling modes You can change a task back and forth from manually scheduled to automatically scheduled. Be careful, though. When you change a task from manually scheduled to automatically scheduled, Project is going to have to make some decisions. If a task's duration was "A fortnight", Project will by default use an estimated duration of "1 day?" if the task is set to automatically scheduled. After all, you can expect project to know that a fortnight is two weeks long.
Control slippage If a manually scheduled task has to be delayed due to a slippage, its successor tasks will not be automatically pushed out. Project managers can decide to keep the original dates if their resources are able to proceed as planned, or delay the successor tasks if there are hard dependencies.
Effort-driven impacts Manually scheduled tasks cannot be set to effort-driven. The duration of a manually scheduled task will not change as resources are assigned to it
The following table shows how Project attributes are defined and used for scheduling manually and automatically scheduled tasks.

Automatically scheduled tasks
Automatically scheduled tasks are the classic way Project schedules your tasks. Automatic scheduling provides a highly structured, systematic means of managing project schedules. Based on users' input, such as task duration, planned work, number of resources, and constraint dates, Project calculates the earliest and latest dates for tasks for the optimal schedule.
Project schedules a project from the information that you enter about the following:
The overall project.
The individual work items (called tasks) required to complete the project.
If necessary, the resources needed to complete those tasks.
If anything about your project changes after you create your schedule, you can update the tasks or resources and Project adjusts the schedule for you.
For each task, you might enter one or all of the following:
Task dependencies
Using this information, Project calculates the start date and finish date for each task.
You can enter resources in your project and then assign them to tasks to indicate which resource is responsible for completing each assignment. Not only does this help you plan project staffing, it can also help you to calculate the number of machines needed or the quantity of material to be consumed. If you enter resources, task schedules are further refined according to the following resource information:
Working times entered in calendars
Other elements, such as lead time and lag time, task types, resource availability, and the driving resource, can affect scheduling, so understanding the effects of these elements can help you to maintain and adjust your schedule as needed.
Note: Project calculates the duration of automatically scheduled tasks based on the definitions of the duration units on the Calendar tab of the Options dialog box. Just like a normal monthly calendar, the year begins in January and each week begins on Sunday or Monday. By default, when Project calculates duration units, one day equals 8 hours, one week equals 40 hours, and one month equals 20 working days. If you enter start and finish dates for tasks and don't enter start and finish times, Project uses 8:00 A.M. as the default start time and 5:00 P.M. as the default end time.
Changing task scheduling modes
You can change a task's scheduling back and forth from automatic to manual. When you change task modes, keep the following in mind.
A task that is changed to automatic scheduling will have duration and dates set to Project's default settings. For example, Project will change a manually scheduled task with a duration of "A couple weeks" the default of "1 day?" A task with a manually entered start date of "tomorrow," will have the start changed to the project start date when it is changed to an automatically scheduled task.
A task that is changed to manually scheduled will retain its duration and dates. However, after the task is set to manually scheduled, the duration and dates can be any number, text, or date value.
How does the project start date affect the schedule?
If you enter a start date for the project, by default, Project schedules tasks to begin on the project's start date and calculates the project's finish date based on the last task to finish.
For automatically scheduled tasks, as you enter more information about tasks, such as task dependencies, durations, and constraints, Project adjusts the schedule to reflect more accurate dates for tasks.
Note: Manually scheduled tasks will not be moved if the project start date changes.
When you create a new project, you first enter the project's start date. When you schedule a project from the start date, all tasks start at the project start date unless you specify otherwise.
For both manually scheduled tasks and automatically scheduled tasks, with no task dependencies or constraints applied, the project's duration is the same as the duration of the longest task. In other words, the project finish date is the same as the longest task's finish date.
Task dependencies, such as the finish-to-start dependency between the first and second tasks (as shown here), can change the project's finish date.
Nearly all projects should be scheduled from a known start date. Even if you know the date that a project must be completed, scheduling from a start date gives you maximum flexibility.
However, you might want to schedule from a finish date when:
You need to determine when a project must start so that it finishes on a specific required date.
You are not sure when your project will begin (for example, you are receiving work from another source that could be delayed).
Your project management methodology requires you to schedule from a finish date.
As you work with your project that is scheduled from a finish date, be aware of differences in the way that Project handles some actions:
When you enter an automatically scheduled task, Project automatically assigns the As Late As Possible (ALAP) constraint to the finish date of the task. You should set other constraints only when necessary.
If you drag a Gantt bar to change the finish date of a task, Project automatically assigns a Finish No Later Than (FNLT) constraint for an automatically scheduled task.
If you change your project to schedule from a finish date and it was previously scheduled from a start date, you will remove all leveling delays and leveling splits from tasks and assignments that have been automatically scheduled. Tasks that are manually scheduled are not affected.
If you use automatic leveling to reduce resource overallocations in your project, Project will add a leveling delay after a task rather than before a task.
How do constraints on automatically scheduled tasks affect the schedule?
When you need to control the start or finish date of an automatically schedule task, you can change the constraint on the task. Flexible constraints work with task dependencies to make a task occur as soon or as late as the task dependency will allow. For example, a task with an As Soon As Possible (ASAP) constraint and a finish-to-start dependency will be scheduled as soon as the predecessor task finishes. By default, all tasks in a project that is scheduled from the start date have the ASAP constraint applied. Likewise, by default, all tasks in a project that is scheduled from the finish date have the As Late As Possible (ALAP) constraint applied.
Note: Manually scheduled tasks are not affected by task constraints. If you change a task scheduling mode from manually scheduled to automatically scheduled, the task constraint will be set to As Late as Possible (ALAP).
Constraints with moderate scheduling flexibility will restrict a task from starting or finishing before or after a date you choose. For example, a task with a Start No Earlier Than (SNET) constraint for June 15 and a finish-to-start dependency to another task can begin June 15 if its predecessor is finished by June 15 (or later if its predecessor finishes after June 15), but it can't be scheduled before June 15.
With the default finish-to-start task relationship and an ASAP constraint applied to these tasks, the successor task (the second one) is scheduled to begin as soon as the predecessor task (the first one) is scheduled to finish.
With a SNET constraint applied, the successor task cannot begin before the constraint date, even if (as shown here) the predecessor task is completed before the constraint date.
Inflexible constraints override any task dependencies by default and restrict a task to a date you choose. For example, a task with a Must Start On (MSO) constraint for September 30 and a finish-to-start dependency to another task will always be scheduled for September 30 no matter whether its predecessor finishes early or late.
If a task that is constrained to a date has a predecessor that finishes too late for the successor to begin on the date specified in the constraint, negative slack can occur.
To review or change the constraint on a task, right-click on the task, click Information or Task Information, and then click the Advanced tab. Constraint information is in the Constraint type and Constraint date boxes.
How do deadline dates affect the schedule?
Deadline dates don't usually affect task scheduling. They are used to indicate a target date you don't want to miss, without requiring you to set a task constraint that could affect scheduling if predecessor tasks change. A task with a deadline is scheduled just like any other task, but when a task finishes after its deadline, Project displays a task indicator notifying you that the task missed its deadline.
Deadline dates can affect the total slack on tasks. If you enter a deadline date before the end of the task's total slack, total slack will be recalculated by using the deadline date rather than the task's late finish date. The task becomes critical if the total slack reaches zero.
You can set deadlines for summary tasks as well as individual tasks. If the summary task's deadline conflicts with any of the subtasks, the deadline indicator signifies a missed deadline among the subtasks.
But deadline dates can affect how tasks are scheduled if you set a deadline date on a task with an As Late As Possible (ALAP) constraint. The task is scheduled to finish on the deadline date, though the task could still finish after its deadline if its predecessors slipped.
To review or change a task deadline, right-click on the task, click Information or Task Information, and then click the Advanced tab. Use the Deadline box.
How do calendars affect the schedule?
Calendars determine the standard working time and nonworking time, such as weekends and holidays, for the project.
Note: Manually scheduled tasks are not affected by project or resource calendars.
Project calendars are used to determine the resource availability, how resources that are assigned to tasks are scheduled, and how the tasks themselves are scheduled. Project and task calendars are used in scheduling the tasks, and if resources are assigned to tasks, resource calendars are used as well.
The calendars referred to in Project are:
Base calendars These are the foundations for the other types of calendars. You can also choose a base calendar to be the project calendar, and you can apply a base calendar to tasks as a task calendar or as the default hours for a resource calendar. Project provides three base calendars: the Standard, 24-Hours, and Night Shift calendars. You can customize your own base calendar by using any of the base calendars provided.
Project calendars These set the standard working and nonworking times for the project as a whole. If resource calendars or task calendars are not used, tasks are scheduled during the working time on the project calendar by default.
Resource calendars These are based on the Standard calendar by default. You can change working time or nonworking time for specific resources or a set of resources, ensuring that resources are scheduled only when they are available for work. If you have changed working or nonworking time on a resource calendar and the resource is assigned to a task, the task is scheduled during the working time on the resource calendar.
Task calendars These can be used to define working times for tasks outside the working times in the project calendar. When a task calendar is assigned to a task and the resource assigned to the task has different working times in its resource calendar, the task is scheduled for the overlapping working time of the two calendars. But you can set a task option to ignore resource calendars and schedule the task through the resource's nonworking time.
To work with calendars, click the Project tab, and then click Change Working Time.
How do resource assignments drive the schedule?
If you don't assign resources to tasks in your project, Project calculates the schedule using durations, task dependencies, constraints, and project and task calendar information. If you do assign resources, the tasks are also scheduled according to resources' calendars and assignment units, providing for more accurate scheduling.
Note: Manually scheduled tasks are not affected by resource calendars. When a resource is assigned to a manually scheduled task, the scheduling of the task will not change.
An assignment is the association of a specific task with a specific resource that is responsible for completing the task. More than one resource can be assigned to a task. Work resources, material resources, and cost resources can be assigned to tasks. Unlike work resources, assigning material resources or cost resources to a task does not affect task scheduling.
For example, in your project you have a task named Develop specifications. You also have an engineering resource, Sean. If you assign Sean to the Develop specifications task, the scheduling of this task depends on Sean's resource calendar and assignment units, in addition to task information such as duration, task dependencies, constraints, and calendars.
In addition to scheduling according to task information, after you assign resources to the tasks in your project, Project has additional resource and assignment information to use in calculating schedule information, including:
The amount of work or overtime work the resource is assigned to do, and how that work is distributed over time. Work distribution over time can also be affected by work contours.
The number of assignment units for the resource, that is, part-time, full-time, or multiple, on the task.

Photograpy: Dylana Suarez
Wearing a burgundy Rory Beca Spring '11 blouse.
Here I am photographed by my wonderful and totally multitalented sister Dylana. Gaahh I cannot believe she can simply pick up a camera any time, any place and create such beautiful photographs...with absolutely no training. And she makes it so easy on me. She tells me to just "stand here...and move around a little." Being the good little sister that I am, I do what I am told, and voila... she creates art in less than 5 minutes. I'm shocked at their vulnerability and rawness. Completely natural and ethereal. Just the way I like them.

Well, in case anyone's interested, my complaint didn't seem to do much. The division chair talked to the professor, who "seemed concerned that a student was having difficulty comprehending the class". Yeah, I smell bullshit. However, this frees me to challenge the professor's claims in class, provided I feel confident enough in my knowledge. Which isn't likely to happen; I did some online research of the guy, and he's done lectures for ICR and is a big friend of the "leading creationists." Meaning he knows his stuff. But I'm going to try, anyway.So, he keeps saying that the primary reason for his disbelief in the dinosaurs-into-birds theory is because there were bird fossils found below where the "earliest" proto-bird should be. (his emphasis, not mine). On the other hand, he does say that it was hard to find evidence against some of the theories that he doesn't agree with; next time he says that I'll point out that lack of evidence is actually pretty good evidence that it's not true. Ahem, sorry to get sidetracked. About the bird: he is horrible at both spelling and biology, and he speaks very quietly so I can never catch the names of species he throws out, so I don't know what this "proto-bird" he claims is too early is called in order to look it up.
I have more pleasant things to focus my attention, time, and resources on than Gamergate or the Gamergate thread, such as pouring hot sauce in my eyes, lemon juice enemas, and imagining being eaten alive by fire ants.

Worries Abound Over US Cyber-Emergency Internet Policy
Feb 26, 2011 5:00 AM PT
In the midst of the civil unrest in Egypt and throughout the Middle East, U.S. Senate-proposed legislation that has become known as the "Internet kill switch bill" was recently reintroduced.
The controversial bill, first introduced by Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, and Sen. Joe Lieberman, I-Conn, in June 2010, seeks to empower the president and, in turn, the Department of Homeland Security to issue decrees that pertain to certain privately owned computer systems should the president declare a "national cyberemergency."
Amid criticism from the likes of the American Civil Liberties Union and the Electronic Frontier Foundation, Sen. Collins has stated that the proposed bill is proactive in that "we cannot afford to wait for a cyber 9/11 before our government finally realizes the importance of protecting our digital resources."
Moreover, in addressing the concerns directed to the expansive nature of the bill, the senator has stated that "the emergency measures in our bill apply in a precise and targeted way only to our most critical infrastructure."
In contrast to the control exerted most recently in Egypt, proponents of are of the view that the proposed bill provides for protections against cyberattacks and that it would not be implemented to control freedom of speech nor the organization of peaceful assemblies.
Addressing Civil Disobedience by Turning Off the Internet
The reintroduction of the proposed bill comes at a time when the Egyptian uprising, and Egypt's deactivation of the Internet in an effort to silence mounting dissent, has dominated the news.
By unplugging itself entirely from the Internet, Egypt did what was once thought unthinkable for any country with a major Internet economy. What occurred in Egypt has shown that a country with strong control over its Internet Service Providers (ISPs) can force all of them to simultaneously "switch off" the Internet.
The notion of quelling dissent by limiting people's access to communications -- including the Internet -- is not new. Various countries have attempted to restrict Internet access and cellphone use by their citizens. This tactic was used by the governments of both Myanmar and Iran.
In 2007, the Myanmar government shut down the Internet during anti-government protests. However, unlike Egypt, Myanmar was not as pervasively connected to the Internet.
In 2009, widespread demonstrations occurred following the presidential elections in Iran. The protests were organized in part through social media websites such as Facebook and Twitter. As a result, the Iranian government filtered and censored the Internet. However, it still allowed the Internet to function.
For years, China has restricted the content that can be viewed by its citizens over the Internet.
Still, it should be noted that until the Internet went dark in Egypt, a shutdown had never been implemented on such a large scale and in such synchronicity. Egypt demonstrated that it could be done.
Can the US Government Kill the Internet?
So, could the complete shutdown of the Internet occur in the United States? Even with the looming passage of the controversial "kill switch bill," it is unlikely that what occurred in Egypt could happen in the United States.
The U.S. has numerous ISPs and numerous ways of connecting to the Internet. While Egypt has dozens of ISPs, there are only five large carriers for Internet connectivity. It would be extremely difficult for the U.S. to coordinate a comparable, simultaneous shutdown.
This fact was emphasized by Sen. Lieberman, who has categorically stated that there is no "kill switch" in this bill, and that "it is impossible to turn off the Internet in this country."
Instead, the proposed legislation would see government control asserted over "the most critical infrastructures that Americans rely on in their daily lives -- energy transmission, water supply, financial services, for example -- to ensure that those assets are protected in case of a potentially crippling cyberattack," he said.
Despite these assurances, civil liberties groups and other critics are concerned that the president would still be given tremendous authority to interfere with Internet communications. As such, the issue for critics is not whether there is an Internet "kill switch."
Instead, the question that should be asked is whether the government can interfere with communications; and if so, whether there are significant protections, such as the ability to obtain a judicial review, to ensure the government does not overstep its boundaries.
The government recognizes that "a total Internet kill switch is totally unacceptable," said Jim Harper, member of a DHS advisory panel. "A smaller Internet kill switch, or a series of kill switches, is also unacceptable... . How does this make cybersecurity better? They have no answer."
Though critics from industry groups or technology companies may have views that differ in their particulars, they are united in that the proposed bill "is in need of additional refinement" before it should be unleashed on the American public.

Sprint today announced that its all-new network shares the first-place RootScore® Awards for call and text performance in Akron and Dayton, Ohio, along with a shared first-place ranking for network reliability in Akron, according to a recent report by independent testing company RootMetrics®.
Last week Sprint also introduced new shared data plans that offer double the high-speed data at the same price as AT&T and Verizon Wireless.
"We're very proud to report that Sprint's all-new network offers outstanding call and text performance in Akron and Dayton," said Joe Meyer, vice president of Sprint Network Performance. "With our new data plans, there's never been a better time to switch to America's Newest Network."
Best Deal on Data
The Sprint Family Share Pack offers double the high-speed shareable data1 for smartphones, basic phones, tablets and mobile broadband devices. For example, customers can get four lines and 20GB of data for $160 compared to 10GB of data for the same price from AT&T or Verizon. Sprint is offering a limited-time promotion for the Sprint Family Share Pack: For a family with up to 10 lines, get 20GB of Shared Data and Unlimited Talk & Text for only $100 a month through 20152 – and, as an added bonus, customers will get an additional 2GB per line for up to 10 lines. For a family of four, that's a savings of $60 per month better than AT&T's and Verizon's current pricing through 2015; double the data of Verizon; and more than double the high-speed data of AT&T and T-Mobile.
Sprint also now offers the best unlimited wireless plan available from a national carrier with the Sprint $60 Unlimited Plan. This plan provides consumers unlimited talk, text and data while on America's Newest Network for just $60 per month, a $20 savings compared to T-Mobile's $80 per month unlimited plan. Simple, easy, affordable – the Sprint $60 Unlimited Plan is available to both new and existing Sprint customers. To qualify for the plan, customers must purchase their device through Sprint Easy Pay, pay full retail price or bring their own compatible device.
All-New Network
As part of a nationwide multi-year overhaul, Sprint has transformed its network in cities across Ohio to deliver faster data speeds than before and improved call quality. Network improvements include:
- 4G LTE for faster, more reliable data delivering peak wireless speeds of 25Mbps.
- HD Voice, a new Sprint standard for crystal-clear voice calls on enabled phones providing a fuller, more natural-sounding voice, plus noise reduction technology that virtually eliminates background noise from places like a busy road or crowded restaurant.
- Stronger in-building coverage using 800MHz low frequency spectrum.
Looking ahead, Sprint will continue to invest in its Ohio network by implementing new technologies and techniques to make the network more efficient and deliver improved performance and faster data speeds. Sprint Spark, an enhanced LTE service that's built for data, will offer peak wireless speeds of 50-60Mbps on capable devices, with increasing speed potential over time.
RootMetrics, an independent mobile analytics firm that offers insights into the consumer mobile experience, tests the networks of all four major wireless carriers in the U.S. twice per year. The company provides objective, unbiased assessments of performance across a broad range of consumer-oriented mobile activities including data usage, calling, and texting. Network reliability measures a customer's ability to establish and keep a data connection, make and retain a call, and send and receive texts.
Rankings based on RootMetrics Akron (June 2014) and Dayton (June 2014) RootScore® Reports for mobile performance as tested on best available plans and devices on 4 mobile networks across all available network types.

Modified Mustangs & FordsNews & Views
Things To Come - Tuned Up
Editor's Letter
Fresh back from the 2013 SEMA show in Las Vegas, Nevada, I now offer a few tidbits of the Ford contingent that was on hand at the show. I was happy to see, once again, a plethora of tricked out rides that no doubt continue to uphold Ford's legacy of high-performance.
From George Poteet's Torino built by Rad Rides By Troy to the TMI/M&P Apparel, Gulf-liveried Fairlane, there was a great mix of old and new with a whole lot of "modified" thrown in. You'll see many of these cars in upcoming feature articles. Until then, feel free to enjoy these tiny samples of Ford greatness.

The North Face is looking to "clothes the loop." The outdoor-apparel company announced Tuesday the launch of a pilot take-back/recycling program designed to reduce the volume of clothing and footwear that enters the landfill. In partnership with the American arm of I:CO—incidentally the same firm that H&M employs to reprocess the clothes from its own waste-reducing initiative—"Clothes the Loop" aims to extend the life cycle of our duds while "engaging consumers to help address the issue of retail products ending up in the waste stream," according to The North Face.
"We've always been dedicated to building products that last, backed by a lifetime warranty, allowing people to depend on our products and minimize the need to buy more," says Adam Mott, corporate sustainability manager for The Norht Face, says in a statement. "Our partnership with I:CO takes our commitment to reducing waste even further by providing our customers with an alternative end for products they no longer want or need, keeping these items from landfills and protecting our natural playgrounds."
The North Face will accept used apparel and footwear from any brand, in any condition.
The North Face will accept used apparel and footwear from any brand, in any condition.
Specially marked "Clothes the Loop" bins can now be found in 10 participating The North Face retail stores in Chicago, New York City, Los Angeles, and San Francisco.
The boxes aren't just for The North Face-branded goods, however. The company will accept used apparel and footwear—anything from T-shirts and beanies to hiking bots and sandals—from any brand, in any condition. Plus, clothing donors will receive one discount voucher per day to be used towards the purchase of The North Face products.
Items from the program will be sent to an I:CO recycling center, where they will be sorted into more than 400 categories and designated to be either resold or recycled into secondary raw materials, including insulation, carpet padding, and stuffing for toys.
The North Face says it will donate any proceeds from "Clothes the Loop" to The Conservation Alliance, a group of outdoor-industry companies (The North Face included) that uses its annual membership dues to fund community-based campaigns to protect outdoor areas for their habitat and recreation values.

Mom's Yoga is geared for moms of all abilities and provides a total body workout with the benefits of yoga. Special attention is placed on developing core strength and stability – with emphasis on strengthening the back and abdomen, as well as relieving tension in the neck, shoulders, and back.
Our class is very informal and lively, and there is no pressure or expectation for your baby to "behave" in a certain way! Part of the yoga practice is welcoming the babies as they are, learning to create awareness and breathing instead of tension and stress.
Previous yoga experience is not necessary to benefit from the classes, and women who have practiced yoga before will find Mom's Yoga is a great way to transition back to their pre-pregnancy practice and continue their practice with baby in tow! Options are given so every mom creates the yoga practice she desires.
Throughout the class, moms will stop to feed or soothe their babies and will rejoin the movements when it is possible and comfortable to do so. Sometimes during class moms will chat, kids will scream and run, and babies will cry. It's ok! We focus on being internally calm in the midst of chaos. Come get a full yoga workout, de-stress your body, bond with your child, meet new moms, and become more flexible!

Outside the Hotel Pennsylvania on Saturday, across the street from Pennsylvania Station and Madison Square Garden, three lanes of Seventh Avenue were clogged with taxis, minivans, limousines and sport utility vehicles. Dodging the traffic police and cart-wielding bellmen, they angled left for a spot near the door. Then they stopped to let out dogs and their belongings, and the people who tend to them.
Upstairs, 1,000 of the 1,700 rooms inside the hotel are filled this week with dogs. Downstairs, a corner of a ballroom -- partly separated by curtains for privacy -- is covered with wood shavings and divided into his and her "canine loos." The area is flanked by Jog A Dog treadmills on one side, by a dog masseuse and a pet psychic on the other. Every need, from the physical to the metaphysical, has seemingly been considered.
The center of the action is the Hotel Pennsylvania's stately lobby with its marble floors. And under a giant chandelier, standing in a footprint of calm amid a swirling sea of dogs and travelers, crates and luggage, is the doggie concierge.
No hotel welcomes the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show the way the Hotel Pennsylvania does. And no person welcomes the dogs the way Jerry Grymek does.
"I welcome them with open paws," he says.
Grymek spends most of the year working in public relations for the hotel. But for a week or so each February, as the two-day dog show and its 2,500 entries approach, he sharpens his repertory of dog-themed puns and puts on one of his dog-themed ties -- subtle, as dog-themed ties go -- and a nametag that reads simply, Doggie Concierge.Continue reading the main story
In a hotel filled with some of the world's most famous and pampered dogs, there are no closets full of Milk-Bones, no emergency stashes of squeaky toys. But there is a man standing in the lobby willing to be licked endlessly on the chin by dogs and entertain their needs, as determined by their owners.
"They really come fully equipped, so there aren't too many strange requests," Grymek said.
One owner asked for a red carpet at the entrance. ("You see a dog come in on the red carpet," Grymek said, "and other dogs say, uh-oh.") Another asked for seven McDonald's cheeseburgers without onions; another wanted pizza. Some ask for cases of specific brands of bottled water, others for extra cots and pillows.
Around the lobby, where the check-in line is long, dogs are tethered to their owners -- or the other way around. Some wait in a quiet corner; others parade through the crowd. Old friends from the dog-show circuit greet with hugs; their dogs exchange sniffs.
Luggage carts are packed with suitcases, jugs of water and yellow canvas bags that say Pedigree, a sponsor's tote apparently handed out somewhere along the circuit. Some carts hold as many as eight crates filled with dogs. Every few minutes a barkfest breaks out, momentary dog conversations that splinter the steady hum of the lobby, like those that disrupt quiet neighborhoods at night.
Grymek's job is to keep order amid the chaos, and to keep everyone smiling.
"I tell people I do public relations, but for two weeks out of the year, I do pooch relations," he said. In his pocket is his business card that says, Jerry Grymek, Pooch Relations (PR).
When the dogs and the people who show them arrive, it is not only the busiest time of year for the hotel, but also the most interesting.
"It's definitely a good crazy," the bellman Frank Esposito said. "It breaks up the monotony of our winter."
The hotel opened at Seventh Avenue and 33rd Street in 1919. The Westminster dog show began in New York in 1877 and has been held in all the incarnations of Madison Square Garden. But it was about five years ago, Grymek said, that the hotel fully recognized that its February business was limited only by its willingness to cater to the dogs. Many hotels do not allow pets. Some allow only those under a certain size.
The Hotel Pennsylvania is open to anything.
"We noticed that we started getting more and more requests," Grymek said. "For example, 'Where can I take my dog to relieve itself?' "
The hotel set up the area of wood shavings downstairs.
"It gets cleaned thoroughly, very thoroughly," Grymek said, as if anticipating the next question about whether there may be, say, a wedding reception held in this very spot the next weekend. "And it eliminates the potential for accidents in the hallways, rooms and in the lobby."
A woman and her dog approached with a request for turf.
"Oh, like AstroTurf," said Grymek, his mind pondering the practicality.
"No, turf," she said. "Grass. Real grass."
Grymek raised his eyebrows and nodded a hmmm type of nod. When the woman walked away, he said, "I'm not sure how we'd do that, but that will be something we'll talk about for next year."
The hotel has two areas set aside for vendors who sell dog-related goods and services. On the main level, booths offer everything from high-end shears to old tennis balls. Downstairs, near the psychic (there is a competing one upstairs) and a woman offering aromatherapy for dogs, vendors sell leashes, oil paintings, dog-themed clothing and jewelry, dog portraits and "ice cream style" dog treats (with Braille on the packaging, for guide-dog owners).
One room has 13 grooming tables and hair dryers, another has four bathtubs. A closet is filled with wood shavings for the loos.
Grymek called the area a doggie spa. "That's s-p-a-w," he said.
It is this week.Continue reading the main story

I chose this project as I thought that it will probably not be something that I will be bought 10 of when little lady is here (like baby grows!), easily personalised and it's nice and clear to make!
Materials that I have used for this were...
I used a larger towel than required in the book, mine was larger than a hand towel but smaller than a bath sheet, so rather than using a flannel + hand towel, I cut the larger towel and used the cut piece as the flannel (face cloth) requested.
OK, so here are the instructions from me:
1. Get your towel and measure it, mine is 125 x 70 cm. If your towel is bigger or smaller, just make the proportional changes...
I think this is more an inspired piece from the Martha Stewart book, but I am so glad I have made it. I don't think I would have ever thought about hacking into a towel to make a baby/ toddler sized hooded towel.
Hope you liked my little excerpt from the 'Martha Stewart's Encyclopaedia of Sewing and Fabric Crafts: Basic Techniques Plus 150 Inspired Projects'. I do highly recommend this book to new(ish) and old seamstresses a like; it's a well-deserved addition to any crafty bookshelf!
I'm away for a week, there will still be a Friday Review next week... but other than that, I am taking 7 days out to spend it eating lots of family food and catching up with friends and family!
See you when I get back!

But if you're feeling blasé about archaeological sites, ancient cultures, tropical rainforests and oh, volcano climbing, you don't have to cross Guatemala off your list. Beach bums can swing in hammocks and swim with sea turtles in coastal paradise Monterrico. Linguists will love the Spanish schools of crisp, clean Antigua. A shopper? Head to traditional town Chichicastenango and cruise for crafts at the biggest and oldest market in Central America. Those in need of a long exhale will find room to breathe in the picture-perfect villages of volcanic Lake Atitlan. Even sprawling and smoggy Guatemala City has something to offer—the country's best museums, which feature everything from pre-Hispanic artifacts to cutting-edge contemporary art. Want to experience the Guatemala culture of today? Eat fiambre and fly giant kites in Santiago Sacatepequez's Dia de los Muertos celebrations. And if that gets boring, there's always the awe-inspiring, dumb-founding, jaw-dropping Mayan ruins. Watch the sun rise over massive Tikal, soak in the imposing sculpture of Quirigua, and relive your favorite moments of the television show Survivor at Yaxha. But only, you know, if you have time.

UPDATED - VIDEO: Trumpet and Be Counted - Aerial Census of Elephants in Tsavo-Mkomazi Ecosystem
UPDATED VIDEO: 7.21.11 - In this overview video, produced by the International Fund for Animal Welfare, several members of the Tsavo Elephant Census team and greater African conservation community talk about the process and needs for protecting and expanding protection for the elephant populations in their respective areas. - ED
It's a day to the elephant census in the Tsavo-Mkomazi ecosystem, and I am still reeling from all the preps that go into such an exercise. If we include proposal writing, fundraising, project planning, identification of materials, equipment and personnel needed to the mobilisation of the participants and a detailed briefing on the eve of the count, then it span over five months.
This helps in accountability and peer review by other Front Seat Observers (FSO) surveying the area. Survey blocks have to be covered systematically from bottom to top as elephants move great distances. This also helps increase data reliability as experienced observers and GIS personnel ensure that their data analysis is conducted scientifically," says Steve.
As an FSO in this count, Steve, like others, will work with a small team every day. As the title indicates, and if he will be flying in a four-seater aircraft, he will seat at the front with the pilot while two Rear Seat Observers (RSO) will take their positions as per their title. The RSOs role is to spot, count and call out the species and numbers on his or her side for the FSO to note down.
The FSO also coordinates with the pilot flying over the transects for systematic coverage, and if need be, circling over an area again for accuracy. After covering individual blocks, the small team lands and the FSOs review their datasheets to ensure they have captured correct data as well as exchange notes with others so as not to duplicate data.
They then hand the datasheets and GPSs to the GIS personnel for downloading while they get some rest – every evening has a briefing where results of the day have to be analysed and computed before the whole team is allowed to break until the following morning. But not for the security team of rangers who ensure that the aircrafts at the airstrip are safe - from humans but particularly from hyenas which can make a hearty meal from tyres and brake pipes.
Mkomazi, located in Tanzania, and which abuts Tsavo on the northeast will also be covered. Representatives from Tanzania research institute and parks are raring to go, having participated in the last census in 2008 which netted 11,696 elephants. For capacity building purposes as well sharing experiences and information, government representatives of Uganda and Southern Sudan are here courtesy of KWS and IFAW. Wildlife authorities in sub-Saharan Africa share similar challenges on elephant conservation and management and given that elephants move across borders, regional cooperation is the way to go.
Other participants are a logistical support team ranging from aircraft engineers and attendants, ground transport team, security, first aiders, finance and procurement and accommodation and meals facilitation. If a block is large or too far from the operation base or too bushy making it difficult to easily spot wildlife as opposed to open savannah, and returning to the operation base for a lunch break is out of question, then arrangements are made for the observers and pilot to carry lunchboxes which they can take as the aircraft is refuelled.
Four refueling stations within Tsavo Parks have been supplied with Avgas provided by IFAW. Counting in one block can take 5 hours to 8 hours – block teams rouse up at dawn and return in early afternoon. Rehydrating is essential in the burning heat – and mouthfuls of glucose or fruit juice keeps the participants balanced and helps in endurance. Despite my initial anxiety, it's good to be back to the red elephants and stunning sunsets of Tsavo. Let's trumpet for elephants. --EW

Dear Opening Credits,
Continue Reading Below
What happens if you are an authorized user on a family member's credit card and they pass away? Will you be responsible for the balance on said card? If not, what happens to the balance? What will it do to my credit score?
- David
Dear David,
I always like to equate authorized users to honored house guests. As such, you have welcome access to another person's credit card account. Essentially, you can enjoy the same charging privileges as the owner, but you don't have any of the legal responsibilities to the credit card company.
But before I explain what will happen to an unpaid balance and your credit score if that account owner dies, I'd like to give you a little background on how these arrangements work. This way you can have some context on why you would or would not be affected in such a circumstance.
In the beginning, a person applies for a credit account, offering up his or her personal and financial information for the credit card company to assess. If the company believes the applicant would be a good customer, the account is approved. The applicant gets a credit card with a specific spending limit, interest rate and other key lending terms. That person is now the sole owner of the account, and all activity is recorded on his or her consumer credit report. It is up to that individual to treat the account well by charging and repaying responsibly. If the cardholder runs up a bill that goes unsatisfied, the issuer has every right to pursue legal action or send the account to collections.
Many creditors allow the account owner to also add friends or family members to the account as authorized users. These are people whose finances were not analyzed by the issuer when determining qualification, and they are not in any way liable for the balance or repayment. The contract is between the account owner and the issuer -- not those the owner invited in as guests. Like the arrangement you'd have when staying with someone while on vacation, you would be free to sleep in the bed and wash up in the bathroom, but the bank wouldn't come after you if the homeowner neglected to pay the mortgage.
That means the answer to the first part of your question is no, you would not be forced to pay a debt on a card that is not contractually yours -- whether he passes on or continues to live.
This is not to say that there aren't other consequences that come with being an authorized user. During the time that you are allowed to spend with the card, all that activity is being listed on your credit report. And I mean all: the owner's, yours and any other users.' That makes hooking up with other people on these financial deals a little risky. If one cardholder charges excessively and the owner can't (or doesn't) pay on time or allows it to hit the limit for too long, everyone linked to the account will suffer a credit score dip.
And that answers the second part of your question. In the event the person who ought to pay the bill dies, causing the account to go delinquent, you and any other cardholder may see negative notations appear on your credit reports. Some issuers do not report negative card activity on authorized user accounts (American Express is one example). However, just so you know, it is illegal to continue to use a deceased cardholder's credit card. The executor who is handling the deceased's estate should report the death to all credit card issuers. The authorized user can also contact the credit card issuer and request removal from the card. If the authorized user is a spouse of the deceased, and that couple lives in Alaska, Arizona, California, Idaho, Louisiana, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, Washington or Wisconsin (all community property states), then that spouse may be held liable for any balances. Community property laws in those states treat authorized users as joint account holders, and joint account holders are equally responsible for debt owed on a credit card.
Clearly, being an authorized user has its perks as well as drawbacks. If the negative aspects of being such an account guest are too unpleasant, I suggest thanking the owner profusely for his or her hospitality and taking steps to get your own individual credit card.

The Massey Memorial Organ was a gift from Mrs. Eliza A. Massey to the Chautauqua Institution in 1907 in memory of her husband, Hart Massey. The organ was totally restored and reconstructed in 1992 by the Fischer Pipe Organ Company of Erie, Pennsylvania. To hear the Massey Organ up close is an unforgettable, moving experience. Many thanks to Jared Jacobsen for his assistance with this project.
The United States is one of the most diverse countries on earth, jam packed full of amazing sights from St. Patrick's cathedral in New York to Mount Hollywood California.The Northeast region is where it all started. Thirteen British colonies fought the American Revolution from here and won their independence in the first successful colonial rebellion in history. Take a look at these rolling hills carpeted with foliage along the Hudson river here, north of New York City.The American south is known for its polite people and slow pace of life. Probably they move slowly because it's so hot. Southerners tend not to trust people from "up north" because they talk too fast. Here's a cemetery in Georgia where you can find graves of soldiers from the Civil War.The West Coast is sort of like another country that exists to make the east coast jealous. California is full of nothing but grizzly old miners digging for gold, a few gangster rappers, and then actors. That is to say, the West Coast functions as the imagination of the US, like a weird little brother who teases everybody then gets famous for making freaky art.The central part of the country is flat farmland all the way over to the Rocky Mountains. Up in the northwest corner you can find creative people in places like Portland and Seattle, along with awesome snowboarding and good beer. Text by Steve Smith.


text: Who Owns Your Farm Data? June 12, 2014 02:24 AM Tweet TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By Rhonda Brooks Editor, Farm Journal MagazineEditorial Director, Farm Journal Media Email There are some things you need to ask technology consultants—and agree to—before you hand over your on-farm data. One of the over-arching promises big data holds is its potential to help you produce higher crop yields. In the process of harnessing that potential for your farm, you will need a technology partner or a team of advisors to work with, someone you trust to provide data analysis and next-step recommendations. Consider these suggestions as you evaluate potential partners and develop a working plan to move forward. Define and agree on who owns your data. The matter of ownership has been difficult to define on the road to implementing big data, Any company or individual worth his salt will tell you that you own the data, but what does that mean? Do you own the raw data, aggregate data or both? There are no legal safeguards currently in place spelling out how you retain ownership of data, according to Shannon Ferrell, an Oklahoma State University agricultural law professor. His advice: treat your data like a trade secret, much like Coca-Cola protects its soft drink recipe. Expect potential service providers to treat your data the same way, and tell them as much. As part of the ownership discussion, discuss the matter of control. Tell service providers to spell out where your data will be at all times and who will have access to it. "Growers need to be more aware and conscious of the data that is going off their farm and being collected on their behalf," says Steve Cubbage, owner and president of Prime Meridian LLC, Nevada, Mo. He adds: "If actual possession is 9/10ths of the law then most growers might not even 'own' their data. Keeping the original data from monitors and other paid services like soil sampling is very important." Ask your potential data consultant about their security practices, encourages John Fulton, an Extension research expert on precision agriculture at Auburn University. He tells farmers to ask these three questions: 1) What assurance is provided that no one other than those with permission can access the data? 2) Is all my data password protected? 3) What additional security do you provide? Why should you care about data security? Because it's good for business. Big data use on the farm is still in its infancy, and no one can say with complete confidence how it will be used in the future. Keeping control of your data will help you be ready to take advantage of opportunities when the time comes to benefit from them. Read the fine print. Scouring the fine print in legal documents is as about as much fun as watching paint dry, but make yourself read it. Too often, company contracts are vague about who can review or use your data. In some cases, you'll find the service provider contracts indicate the provider can share your data with a business partner. The issue with that is the farmer typically has no binding contract with a third party, says Matt Erickson, American Farm Bureau Federation (AFBF) economist. AFBF is working with leaders in the big data arena to make the language in contracts more consistent and transparent across the agricultural industry. "We want contracts to spell out all uses of the data in a way that's boldfaced or highlighted," Erickson says. He adds that most companies have a set of guiding principles that they say they operate by. Evaluate any "feel good" statements the company talks about or advertises to ensure they are parallel to the wording used in legal documents they ask you to sign. Plan for a win-win relationship. Both you and your partners will offer valuable insights and expertise during the implementation of big data for your farm, and it's important to define and agree to each of your respective roles. Fulton says that the service provider needs to "ensure an individual farmer has more than ample opportunity to provide input during the analysis step. More times than not, the farmer's insight as a data layer will provide more meaningful input than all other data layers." Back to news
