SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Padraig Harrington describes Europe's new Ryder Cup Captain Paul McGinley as having "a little guy syndrome" – and cannot wait to see that side of his fellow Dubliner's character come out next year.
McGinley will take charge of the European team as it aims to retain the title in Scotland, and Harrington, who is making his debut in the Waste Management Phoenix Open this week, is already looking forward to the occasion.
"He's a little fella and he likes to fight," Harrington said of McGinley. "He really has that little bit from his (Gaelic) football days. He's got it inside him and will lead the team well in that respect, as well as being organised."the
Harrington missed last year's Ryder Cup after a slump that took him down to 96th in the world, but he is back up to just outside the top 50 and knows the importance of continuing his climb.
"I only got a chance of making it on the world ranking points with the schedule I keep," he said. "I didn't play seven events that basically give you points for turning up and I realized in order to make it easier you have to be in those.
"It put a huge amount of pressure on my game because two or three guys are going to have exceptional years, and then you're really only playing for one or two spots."
As for the incentive of returning under McGinley, with whom he won the World Cup and played alongside in three Ryder Cups, the 41-year-old said: "I don't think it motivates me more – I'm fully motivated. I've known him for a long time and it's going to be fantastic having him as captain, but it would be fantastic to be in the Ryder Cup no matter who was captaining the team.
"Professional golf is one of the most selfish games that you can play. It's an individual sport and it's all about managing ourselves, but Paul McGinley loves teams," Harrington explained. "He's probably sacrificed the last three years of his playing career and the next 18 months for the Ryder Cup. It's been all about the team for him."

Google is trying to calm the fears of TV execs by disavowing cord-cutters. The company says it doesn't believe that cord-cutting is a real phenomenon, adding that traditional TV is still where it's at and the Google TV is largely meant for content discovery, not replacement.
Cord-cutting is simply "not happening," Google TV lead Rishi Chandra said at the NewTeeVee Live conference on Thursday. He added that the Google TV is meant to help users access the content that they already watch the traditional way, and that cable TV already does a "pretty good job of delivering content to users."
It appears to be true that cord-cutters (those who ditch their cable or satellite subscription to go broadcast- and Internet-only) tend to be a small group in the grand scheme of content consumption. A Nielsen study from 2009 said that 98.8 percent of all video is consumed on a TV, while 1.1 percent is consumed on the Internet and 0.1 percent on a mobile device (which is really just a subset of the Internet).
Those who do move most of their video-watching away from the TV tend to be young and Internet-savvy. However, it seems like more of the population would consider ditching cable if they could get the same kind of content online with the same level of ease: people's favorite cable TV shows and live sports were both cited recently as major reasons to keep paying that monthly TV subscription.
The numbers show that the traditional TV model isn't exactly losing out to Internet video fiends just yet, but the cable industry has still suffered some setbacks. Market research firm SNL Kagan released a report earlier this year saying that subscriber growth was slowing to a halt, largely due to the economy. Comcast's and Time Warner Cable's latest numbers support the notion that some folks are cutting cords: Comcast reported having lost 275,000 subscribers in the most recent quarter, while TWC lost 155,000. Both companies laid the blame for the subscriber loss on the current tough economic times.
Chandra's comments come as the major TV networks seem to be banding together to ensure their online content isn't accessible on the highly anticipated Google TV. This week, Fox joined ABC, CBS, and NBC in blocking the Google TV's built-in Web browser so that users are forced to watch popular shows the traditional TV way (read: with lucrative commercials) and not online (with fewer and lower-paying ads). At this rate, potential users worry that the Google TV will end up being a dumb terminal for searching traditional TV listings.
Still, Chandra insisted that the world isn't over just because a few (pretty major) TV networks are turning their noses up. "There are many content owners who are not blocking Google TV," he said. "The web is a new technology, and it's not unheard of whenever there is a new technology that a lot of the incumbents in the space are trying to understand what that technology is going to mean for them."

Ask Eartha: The scoop on biodegradable bags
Special to the Daily
Dear Eartha:
At the town of Breckenridge's open house on plastic bags, a community member suggested we switch plastic bags to biodegradable bags. What's the deal with biodegradable bags and do they really break down?
– Concerned citizen, Breckenridge
It's not a secret that we produce a lot of waste. From bottles to bags, plastic leftovers have been wreaking havoc on the environment and our trash cans for some time. For that reason, it's no surprise that manufacturers are looking to technology to make plastic waste disappear.
True biodegradability facilitates decomposition by living organisms into something that is beneficial for the earth. More recently, a slew of "biodegradable" plastics including oxo-biodegradables, partially degradable, and recyclable-hybrids have hit the mainstream as the answer to all of our problems. Waste as much as you want because biodegradables will melt away like magic. Unfortunately, this perception and misleading marketing claims have outraged compost activists. Just because the label says biodegradable doesn't mean it will recycle into nature.
So why the thumbs down on biodegradable plastic? First of all, the term "biodegradable" has been complicated with too much greenwashing. The biodegradability of a product depends on a number of factors including time, sun, moisture, air and microorganisms. For example, some biodegradable bags may break down into soil. Others may fragment into a million microscopic plastic pieces.
Biodegradable plastics claim to break down in your backyard or the landfill but the process of breaking down can take years, decades or forever. Also, biodegradable may actually refer to compostable where an industrial-sized compost facility is needed to reach high temperatures and moisture levels to transform that material into soil.
As you can see, biodegradable can mean many things – some good and some bad for the environment. The most alarming issues with biodegradable plastics are false claims that confuse the public and actually contaminate existing compost programs. Below are some technical but helpful definitions to decipher biodegradable and compostable plastics. You can usually find these terms stamped on the product label or directly from the manufacturer.
> Degradable – When exposed to excessive moisture and heat, degradable plastics will disintegrate into tiny pieces of plastic, polluting our rivers and soils. Thumbs down!
> 100 percent Recyclable and Biodegradable – The normal cycle of a biodegradable product is generally 90 days at an industrial compost facility (aka high heat). Products that are both recyclable and biodegradable often claim they will break down in one to five years. These hybrids are a mix of non-biodegradable plastic and a compostable material such as corn starch. Unfortunately, once the organic portion of the product composts, the remaining plastic fragments like other degradable plastics. Thumbs down!
> ASTM D6400 – This is a standard specification for compostable plastics. This certifies that the plastic is truly compostable in a municipal or industrial compost facility. It also signifies the entire product is consumed by microbes during the compost process with no persistent residues (aka fragmented plastic pieces). Thumbs up!
> PLA – Polyactic acid is a plastic substitute generally made from a plant starch like corn that's an alternative to your average petroleum-based plastic cup or bag. Labeled as a recycling #7 symbol or "other," PLA plastic slowly biodegrades within three months in an industrial composting facility (reaching at least 140 degrees in heat).
PLA plastic bags and cups can cause contamination problems in recycling programs because they are meant for composting. PLA is often associated with BPI and ASTM D6400 certifications. Depending on a number of factors including how the product is disposed of, where it is manufactured, and if it is 100 percent PLA, I give this product mostly Thumbs up!
> Oxo-biodegradable – A petroleum-based plastic product that breaks down when exposed to heat and oxygen. Often disguised as plastic carryout bags, oxo-biodegradable plastics should never be added to compost programs. Studies have found that even after several months in an ideal environment, the plastic did not break down. Thumbs down!
If in doubt, leave it out of the compost program. We don't want to contaminate our community compost. You can always check biodegradable products against a third-party verifications process such as the Biodegradable Products Institute (Thumbs up!). BPI has a database of certified compostable products that are safe for the environment and our soils. Check it out at bpiworld.org.
Unless we can capture all certified biodegradable bags in our community compost program, I don't think replacing plastic bags with biodegradable bags is the answer. The best way to reduce plastic bag waste is to not create it in the first place (BYOB – Bring Your Own Bag). You, too, can voice your opinion on plastic bags at EngageBreckenridge.com.

Atlas® Van Lines Agents think 'the bigger the better' when it comes to spreading awareness about food insecurity. In partnership with Move For Hunger,™ a nonprofit that encourages donating food instead of moving it, our moving and storage companies are sharing the message from the largest billboards they could find – their moving trucks.

What if you could walk through your customer's home from the other side of the world? Or see every text message thread from your customer throughout the move? Or get immediate feedback for improving service on a move while it is taking place? You Can.
Each month, thousands of families go new places® with the help of Atlas® Agents. And each month, expressions of gratitude pour into Atlas via post-move surveys. It's no wonder the comments often read like fan mail. People go hundreds, even thousands of miles, to get to a new home, a new community, a new job. Throughout their journeys, Atlas Agents provide service that is reliable and reassuring.
Dedicated Atlas Van Lines veteran, David Coulter, Vice President of STG Sales, announced his retirement after 36 years with the company.
Checkout which Atlas Agents are this year's Quality Milton M. Hill Award winners, the President's Club 2015-16 Platinum winners, and the Sustainable Agent 2015-16 winners.
In late September, southwest Indiana celebrated a year of major milestones and recognized six individuals for their commitment to regional business at the Annual Meeting and Dinner held by the Southwest Indiana Chamber. One of the individuals honored was Atlas® Chairman & CEO Glen Dunkerson, who was named the 2016 Richard A. Schlottman Business Person of the Year.
In fact, the overarching message for Atlas at the SHRM show was to ease customers' minds about the relocation process. To demonstrate how Atlas PVO's and pack/load team members are friends that customers can trust with their household belongings, two life-size cardboard cutouts of crew members stood in the booth for photo opportunities, while attendees were encouraged to share their selfies with the hashtag #MyFriendsAtAtlas.
A group of representatives from multiple Atlas Agencies and Atlas HQ trekked to Las Vegas in late June to set up shop at the annual Convention and Expo of the Society for Human Resources Management (SHRM). In total, more than 630 exhibiting companies filled over 30 aisles with human resource solutions at the Las Vegas Convention Center, making it the largest expo SHRM has ever held.
In 2015, Alexander's Mobility Services (0217) celebrated 20 years of service in the Nashville area, and they did it in a big way. As the largest multi-location agent in the Atlas family, Alexander's moved their Tennessee operations into a new location on the northwest side of the city.

Training improves efficiency for counties, KDOT
Feb. 7, 2006 ( 06-047)
News Contact: Kim Stich, (785) 296-3585
Training improves efficiency for counties, KDOT
Training for county public transportation employees to develop technical and management skills will greatly improve efficiency for county government as well as the Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT).
To help achieve this, Secretary of Transportation Deb Miller signed a Memorandum of Understanding on Feb. 7 in Topeka with the Kansas County Highway Association to provide five courses in the Executive Development Program. This program will assist transportation employees receive training and work together on county roadways.
"KDOT's Bureau of Local Projects regularly works with counties on road-related issues and funding," said Secretary Miller. "By providing these employees an opportunity to learn important skills, county governments can operate more efficiently and provide improved service to the traveling public."
Currently, the focus is to provide a training program for county employees. In the future, the goal is for the program to also include city and state employees.

In Spv1 it was a "glitch easter egg" that was allowed to pick up and use. It had no model and you couldn't crouch with it.
in Spv2 it was then touched up, and made a new weapon you could use.
in Spv3 i dont know if it's planned to be used or not, but they explode when the hunter dies, just as how the fuel rods explode and the energy swords deplete.

Rather late than never!
I had some doubt it would actually run on my laptop, so I figured I might even wait longer until I get back to my desktop.
However, after a driver update for the video card on my laptop I was more confident and figured I should give it a try.
With an average of 32FPS it was very do-able!
Other than that, I've been in China since early Feb and will remain here until mid June for my graduation internship.
My weeks are filled with more social/business/other stuff, couldn't really make time to sit down for a few hours and spend it on fully exploring a map.
I'm glad I finally did.

Specifically, these are various tags & other files that were used in the SPv3 A50 release to take advantage of Open Sauce's features. Just paste the contents of this archive into your HCE folder and you should be good-to-go. However, there is some kind of advanced stuff in here so I am assuming that you know what you're doing with the HEK. If you don't, get ready to learn.
It should also be noted that the things contained here are designed for SINGLE-PLAYER-USE ONLY, especially things like the VISR, single-shot-toggling BR and CMT Extras menus. Don't try to use this stuff in MP unless you know exactly what you're doing or you will run into nightmare problems.
Here's what's inside:
-All tags and source-files related to CMT Extras
--This includes the .hsc files used for the scenario
---Of special note, "globals_spv3.hsc" contains the scripting logic for the ingame VISR, the Single-shot-toggling BR, and the other CMT Extras things
--This includes all the VISR-related tags that we made or edited
---And the HLSL .fx source file for the mod's custom VISR shader
--This also includes the UI widgets used for the CMT Extras menu (read a little bit down for instructions on enabling this)
-The .hsc file for the A50 scenario itself (Open Sauce-only version, though there's only like one line that needs to be removed to make it non-os compatible)
--Gaze and marvel at properly-formatted HSC code, dozens of commented-out lines and the terrible hacks we used for this project
-The .project_yelo (and related files) used for the A50 scenario
--This includes all the setups necessary to get a map building with the VISR effect if you're lazy and don't want to do it yourself
--But be warned! This also includes the map's bloom settings so you may wish to go in yourself and configure that as you wish.
-A rough definition file for Notepad++ of Halo's scripting language (found in the \data\ folder; just import the .xml as with any other user-defined language)
--This makes scripts way easier to read if you use Notepad++ since syntax stuff will be highlighted and colored!
--The file doesn't have an exhaustive list of HCE's global variables and other minor things; if it's not in hs_doc.txt or the Halo Scripting Bible it's not in there but it was good enough for us
-A few example shader_model tags that use Open Sauce's shader extensions
--These WILL NOT be valid tags unless you're using Open Sauce
--These are only shaders, not bitmaps (see immediately below)
-The HEK+ password to un-protect the A50 release .map and .yelo so you can put our tags into Bloodgulch and Halo Trial like a pro modkid (or just learn from them who cares)
--.map file's password: "goodiez4meandu"
--.yelo file's password: "keyesman00"
NOTE 1: The passwords only work on the updated release's files, so if you downloaded before the release was up on Halomaps.org, redownload or the passwords won't work.
NOTE 2: HEK+ doesn't like to extract tags correctly that have Open Sauce additions (or are completely unique to Open Sauce) so use care with that. Shader_model tags probably won't extract correctly. You might have to re-make some of them yourself, boo hoo. Anything else of interest should be contained in this archive.
NOTE 3: A few things in the tags contained in this archive may depend on some tags not provided here; using the above passwords you should be able to extract anything you need from the released maps (or you can just fix the references yourself).
1) Open Guerilla.
2) Open the tag "ui\shell\solo_game\pause_game\pause_game.ui_widget_definition"
3) Scroll down to the "child widgets" section
4) Select the element labeled "pause_list"
5) Re-reference that tag to "cmt\ui\shell\solo_game\pause_game\pause_list"
6) Save! You're done!
There is some unused stuff in the CMT pause menu folders; some is useful and some is not. If you're feeling adventurous you can poke around there.
That's it! Have fun and maybe learn something about this terrible game.

Healthcare Reform – Healthy Choice?
Healthcare reform has been a national hot button lately, and with it comes a focus on all related industries, such as healthcare design and construction. With the development of proposed plans, comes the scrutiny of every penny allocated, prompting a public perception that the cost of healthcare facilities drives up the cost of healthcare. Because of this opinion, many healthcare operators are feeling pressure to decrease spending on their facilities to prevent a collective outcry.
Despite the myriad subjective view points on this issue, several facts substantiate that healthcare construction should not cease.
Injecting Capital Into Growth
History has proved that government-provided medicine hinders the development of new healthcare facilities and does nothing to foster innovation or improvement. There have been many newsworthy examples of limited investment in facilities maintenance programs and improvements, resulting in run-down, non-viable centers, which minimize effectiveness of healthcare delivery.
Capital expenditures (facilities and equipment) typically comprise 10% to 15% of a healthcare organization's budget, while staff costs can total 60% or more. Spending on projects should not be limited, but instead examined to elicit greater efficiencies through planning and design.
Booming Healthcare
The Phoenix and Tucson metropolitan areas have invested in healthcare facilities, but rural areas still lack capacity. The Hill-Burton Act of 1946, implemented "to modernize hospitals that had become obsolete due to lack of capital investment," caused a surge of rural hospitals to be built in the 1950s and '60s. Many of these hospitals still exist in almost the same condition today as when they were first built — unable to support current clinical demands and technological needs.
According to a U.S. News and World Report article published earlier in 2009, Phoenix ranks No. 11 on the top 20 list of cities where baby boomers are likely to retire, based on the expected senior population growth. The oldest boomers will begin to retire in 2011, and the Valley is not ready to receive them.
Arizona is short 1.5 beds per 1,000 residents, based on the national average. Because the demand on our statewide facilities will increase, not investing in additional healthcare facilities now will yield a greater shortage in the future. Seventy-six million baby boomers are anticipated to have multiple chronic conditions due to longer life spans (90+ years is the fastest-growing demographic) and will require more in-patient and primary care.
Baby boomers don't plan to live in traditional nursing homes, as they prefer a community-centered lifestyle. The "old school" model of long-term care won't suffice, requiring innovative facilities to accommodate the increasing numbers in a supportive manner.
To compound the demographic dilemma, earlier this year the under-20 population, or Gen Y, surpassed the number of baby boomers. This cohort now comprises roughly 28% of the U.S. population and is fast becoming equally as influential as the boomers, but with new expectations. Because this generation is just now beginning to enter its child-bearing years, more women and children's services will be in demand at the same time boomers' healthcare needs peak.
Reviving Investment Through Operations
As the healthcare reform debate rages, investment in design and construction of healthcare facilities must continue. Implementing effective planning and design strategies can actually help to reduce operational costs, such as staffing, because of improved efficiencies. Investing in facility updates also emphasizes a focus on better patient care through the creation of quality, healthy environments that take advantage of current technologies and meet best-practice expectations at a minimum.
To help spawn the future success of healthcare in Arizona, it is necessary for design and construction to continue at the high caliber of success it has achieved — and lead the way to providing innovative healthcare programs and facilities for the nation's aging and future generations.

Martyr Trophimus and 14 Others in Lycia
The Holy Martyrs Trophimus, Theophilus, and thirteen martyrs with them, suffered during the persecution against Christians under the emperor Diocletian (284-305). Brought to trial, they bravely confessed themselves Christians and refused to offer sacrifice to idols. After fierce tortures, they broke the legs of the holy martyrs and threw them into a fire. Strengthened by the Lord, they came out of the fire completely unharmed, and they glorified Christ all the more. Unable to break the will of the holy confessors, the torturers beheaded them.

If the drive shaft oil seal is damaged or worn gear box oil can escape from the motor end even reach the back brake assembly or the rear wheel tyre unit itself. Oily brakes and tyres are extremely dangerous and can lead to accidents and serious injury. Engine oil seals should be checked regularly and, if necessary, replaced.
The dimensions of the existing oil seal that needs replacing are important while ordering the new item. Sometimes in the life of a Vespa the brake drum or the engine get replaced which can lead to differences in the size of the replacement oil seal required. We recommend therefore to measure the old seals to ensure that you order the correct replacement item, especially for the PX models. The oil seals are usually available from PIAGGIO themselves or a couple of other Italian motor parts suppliers and are produced mostly by either CORTECO or ROLF. The blue CORTECO version has its fans, as does its black counterpart produced by ROLF. To keep all factions happy we stock both versions.
SIP-TIP: Do not forget to order a new output shaft/ rear wheel nut and the suitable safety washer and split pin. The use of a bearing extractor (part no. 21467000) makes this job child's play. Do not forget to order gear box oil and engine shaft oil seals. While you are at it, why not also change the brake shoes?

How to Use
the Readings
Inquiry Question
Reading 3: From Bicycles to Airplanes
By the time Wilbur and Orville Wright opened their first bicycle shop in 1892 to repair and sell bicycles at 1005 West Third Street in Dayton, the nation was already in the midst of a cycle craze. In fact, so great was the appeal for the newly developed safety bicycle that it was extolled as the "greatest invention of the nineteenth century," and the decade of the 1890s was celebrated as the golden age of the bicycle.¹ The millions of bicycles that poured out of American factories during the decade of the 1890s set an entire nation on wheels. For both industry and society--the bicycle was a transitional technology, bridging the gap between the age of the horse and that of the automobile.
The bicycle enterprise provided a brisk business for Wilbur and Orville, and necessitated the relocation of their cycle shop at 1005 West Third Street to more spacious quarters. In early 1895, the Wrights once again made the decision to move their bicycle business to larger facilities this time to 22 South Williams Street. However, this time they chose to combine their bicycle and printing interests under the same roof. In addition to their repair business, the brothers stocked a line of parts and acquired the local distributorship for eight lines of new bicycles. Competition was still fierce, as there were 14 bicycle shops in Dayton by 1894-95, four of them within two blocks of the new Wright shop.
Late in 1895, the Wrights decided to expand their cycle business to manufacture their own brands of bikes. In a pamphlet printed early in 1896, the Wrights announced:
With the new year we begin our fourth season in the bicycle business, and we take this occasion to thank the public for its increasing favor. Each year we have more than doubled the business of the preceding one. For this reason we feel that we are justified in making special preparation for the accommodation of our customers in the coming year. Our salesroom at 22 South Williams Street is being nicely refitted, and a visit from you will be much appreciated. We are adding new machinery to our shop, and before the riding season opens we hope to have on the market a bicycle of our own make, which in commemoration of Dayton's Centennial Year and in honor of our own ancestor, we have decided to call it the "Van Cleve.". . .We shall also put out a cheaper bicycle which will be known as the "Wright Special." ²
In preparation to produce their own line of bicycles, the Wrights transformed the building into a well-equipped machine shop. Within no time, the back room of the bicycle shop was outfitted with a turret lathe (a turning lathe with a vertical cylindrical revolving head), drill press, brazier (a metal pan for holding burning coals or charcoal), tube cutting equipment, and an overhead line shaft. Likewise, the Wrights used many other tools such as files and wrenches, which would be necessary to manufacture bicycles. However, most important among the Wrights' inventions for the bicycle shop was an experimental gas engine. The one-cylinder internal combustion engine was designed by Wilbur and Orville to power the bicycle machinery and was the first engine they ever built.
The first bicycle produced was the Van Cleve. Named for pioneer ancestors of the Wrights, it was always the top of the line of Wright bicycles and sold for $65.00.³ The St. Clair (named in honor of Arthur St. Clair, first governor of the Northwest Territory), a lower priced model marketed towards school children, was also introduced in 1896. While most major bicycle manufacturers were mass-producing machines using techniques that helped set the stage for the assembly line, the Wright bicycles remained hand-crafted originals. Most of the Wright cycle frames were built from raw tubing, brazed (or soldered) with a machine the Wrights had developed themselves. The Wrights built their own wheels with either wooden or metal rims, according to individual customer orders. One particular element of their Van Cleve bicycles that they were proud of was their specially designed hub (the center of a wheel, from which the spokes radiate), which they announced, has "been a chief feature in making the Van Cleve reputation. We are certain that no hubs have been used in bicycles so satisfactory in all respects….they are absolutely dust proof, and oil retaining to a degree that one oiling in two years is all they require."4
Overall, between 1896 and 1907, when the Wrights discontinued their bicycle enterprise, the brothers manufactured and sold hundreds of several models and brands. But bicycles had given Wilbur and Orville more than just the wherewithal to build and test their experimental flying machines. Their experience in bicycle building had provided them with the wood- and metal-working tools and skills that would be required in the construction of an airplane. In fact, many early aviation enthusiasts predicted that the invention of a successful flying machine would be the work of bicycle makers.
The year 1896 at the bicycle shop was significant for other reasons as well. In August, after the line of Wright bicycles had been successfully introduced to the Dayton community, Orville contracted typhoid fever from a tainted well at the rear of the bicycle shop. While Orville remained bedridden until early October, Wilbur occupied his time contemplating the aeronautical problems of human flight. Around the time Orville became ill with the fever, Wilbur learned of another tragedy that would fuel the brothers' desire to conquer the air. On August 10, Otto Lilienthal, the German engineer and aeronautical pioneer who was the first man in the world to launch himself into the air and fly, died from injuries received in a glider accident. Lilienthal's death, which Wilbur learned of through a news service the brothers subscribed to for their printing firm, inspired the brothers' to work on overcoming the obstacles to human flight. As Wilbur remembered:
My own active interest in aeronautical problems dates back to the death of Lilienthal in 1896. The brief notice of his death which appeared in the telegraphic news at that time aroused a passive interest which had existed from my childhood...and as my brother soon became equally interested with myself, we soon passed from the reading to the thinking, and finally to the working stage.5
From 1896 and on, the Wrights harbored a growing belief that man could fly, and they began to focus their attention on the problems of mechanical and human flight. Time and again the Wrights returned to the study of Lilienthal's crash and the reasons for it. After all, the German pioneer had constructed wings that could carry him aloft, but his primitive weight-shifting technique had been inadequate to provide sufficient control over his machine. Most would-be aviators had, in fact, moved in the same direction as Lilienthal, toward designing a machine that would be inherently stable, requiring the intervention of the pilot only when a change in direction or altitude was required. The insistence of the Wright brothers that the pilot be an integral part of the mechanical system, exercising complete and constant control over the balance and direction of the machine, was their first major step toward success.
Inside the building at 22 South Williams Street in Dayton, Ohio the Wright brothers began their incredible journey into aviation. The bicycle business not only provided the funds necessary to pursue their interests in aviation, but also allowed them time, as the business was seasonal in nature. Bicycle manufacturing was the ideal preparation for engineering the structure of an aircraft. Weight control is a primary concern of both bicycle and aircraft designers, though for very different reasons. In the key areas of balance and control, the bicycle had helped to shape the Wright brothers' approach to aircraft design. In the fall of 1897, the Wrights shifted their operations to 1127 West Third Street, the final location of their bicycle enterprise. It was in this building that the brothers constructed their experimental gliders and later machines, conducted much of their aeronautical research, and built the world's first airplane. They successfully flew that airplane on December 17, 1903 at Kitty Hawk, North Carolona.
After their success at Kitty Hawk, the Wright brothers proved that flight was possible. But they needed to prove that flight was practical. For aviation to take its next steps, they needed a convenient, private place--a flying field--closer to home. Their experiments continued--not at Kitty Hawk, but at a cow pasture eight miles east of Dayton, Ohio, known as Huffman Prairie. Even though their first experiments at Huffman Prairie in 1904 were filled with frustration, their experience as bicycle makers helped them master the mysteries of control and balance. Eventually, the brothers were able to stay in the air long enough to practice turns, circles, banking and stalling. It was here, at Huffman Prairie, that the brothers built the first practical airplane and learned to fly. They were no longer dependent on the wind; they could take off and land numerous times without injury and they could stay in the air longer than ever before. By the end of 1905, the Wright Flyer III could fly 20 miles or more at a time. The Wright brothers truly conquered the skies.

Eurocopter conducted the first public flight of its optionally manned capability in late April at the Istres air base, located in the south of France and near the company's Marignane facility.
The demonstration aircraft, an EC145 with 70 lbs of control equipment onboard, flew two demonstration paths within a restricted area inside the airfield. The first flight, with a pilot onboard but not controlling the aircraft, flew a 4D (four-dimension) flight path that involved remotely controlled takeoff, flying a programmed route via waypoints at different heights and speeds to represent a cargo run, followed by a return flight using another route to demonstrate a simulated ISR mission. This was then repeated completely unmanned and remotely piloted.
The optionally piloted program, known only to a select group within the company, was started in September 2011 at Eurocopter's Donauworth facility. The first unmanned flight occurred on April 12, 2013 and this was the second. However, there have been more than 20 flights including monitoring by test pilots and engineers. The EC145 has not flown for longer than 15 minutes, at a speed not exceeding 35 knots and a maximum height of 300 feet within the controlled airspace at Istres.
This news should not be taken in terms of how fast, or how high, or for how long – but rather that Eurocopter has proved it now has the capability to produce a non-platform centric optionally piloted vehicle, something the company says is of interest to its customers who would have a use for it. The U.S. Army has UH-72 Lakotas; the Royal Air Force has taken delivery of new Puma Mk2s; and of course there are numerous military customers for the EC725 and NH-90. This is just the beginning.

A Device to Loathe: Bell's HTC 5800 Smartphone
I woke up the other morning despising my mobile phone.
I'd been forced to spend some time without my HTC 5800 from Bell Mobility. In its stead I'd gone back to my old Palm Treo 650.
I only just picked up the HTC device last October, and I'd realized almost right away that I didn't like it. I suppose I got suckered into its fancy slide-out keyboard. Of course, it's far less bulkier than the Treo, and doesn't have an antennae, so I recall that being a bonus.
Over time, however, I've grown to absolutely despise this device. Here's why:
Windows Mobile. This is a most lame excuse for a mobile OS. Rather than ask, "How can we enable a positive mobile experience for users?", Microsoft seems more intent on replicating the Windows experience in one's hand, warts and all. This concept is highlighted when you consider how un-Mac-like the iPhone is, as it's more about a unique mobile user experience.
The dongle. Never again will I buy a device that has a dongle to enable a proprietary data port to interface with USB. If I ever lose this damned dongle (and I temporarily have, from time to time), I'm screwed, as it's essentially for charging and syncing the device. Words to live by: dongles are evil.
The battery. If I'm lucky, I'll get an hour or two of talk time out of this thing. Standby? Maybe 20 hours. And that's on the decrepit 1X network in the Horse. When I visit Vancouver and do a lot of data, the device needs to be charged twice daily.
The cute noises. In general, I can turn off most noises on this device. However, no matter what I do, I can't kill the cute little dingly noise the damn thing makes whenever I slide open the keyboard or shut it. And trust me, it's a lame noise.

Works great. Nice phone.
SMT5800 â Verizon Wireless
Iâve had my phone for over a week. Before I get to my review I just want to say that it is not the exact phone in the pictures above but, itâs really close.
The keys on the front have been changed a little. The directional dial is wider but, looks to be about the same height.
Before this I had a Motorola Q which I had for almost 2 years, so thatâs what Iâm kind of comparing it to.
+Processor â a lot faster than my Q was. +Switching between screen modes is fast.
+Keyboard â bigger and easier to use.
+Windows Mobile 6 â Word, excel, power point and PDF reader.
* You can edit Word, Excel documents, but canât create new ones.
+2mp camera â You still need really good +light but, it takes decent photos. Better options, easier to change settings.
+USB connectors â Any mini usb cable/charger will work.
+Size â Feels more like a phone than a pda, until you slide out the keyboard.
+Up to an 8gig Micro SDHC card.
+Use any mp3/wav/wma as a ringtone or sound.
+Ringers are loud.
+Good Call quality
-Battery door/back cover could fit better.
-Pouch that comes with it is just cheap.
-No headphone Jack, Has USB splitter cable for it, but who uses a wired headset anymore.
-Voice dialing â Doesnât have voice recognition. You must train it for each name/number.
Iâve heard complaints about battery life, but after a few days of use and some adjustments I get several days of use.
I cut the backlight brightness setting to 4 out of possible 10 and itâs still easy to read
I check my pop mail account every 30 minutes and also get push mail from my office exchange server.
I turn Bluetooth off when Iâm not using it, as itâs easy to turn it on and off when needed.
Iâve heard complaints about lock ups. This only happened to me once but, I found opening and closing the keyboard fixed the issue. Never had to remove battery.
Iâve been very happy with this phone so far.
AD reviews continues below...
Awesome Phone (VZW SMT5800 Version)
This phone is an excellent phone. As stated in reviews below it's more like a Phone with smart phone capabilities and not a PDA with the phone capabilities. The call quality on this version is great (VZW Albuquerque, NM). I have had a Motorola E815 (which is one of the highest rated phones) for the last 3 years so it was a very hard choice to make since I was replacing a very good phone.
Great Call quality in my area (VZW Abq, NM)
very fast EVDO Speeds
Easy Navagation
Windows Mobile 6 outlook integration
Windows Media Player
Location if expandable memory is easy to get to
Good Camera (for a phone)
compact form factor
no touch screen (for me this is a pro)
ability to charge via Microusb
Front buttons are a little small for large fingers (But I did get used to it)
battery does not hold a charge very long when doing a lot of Internet activity (but it can be recharged easily)
Overall I do give this phone a 4.5 out of 5 as it has kept me very happy over the last month of owning it and I have no intentions of returning it. The call quality is much better than I expected since I read some conflicting opinions. Excellent for someone who needs the PDA support that does not want something very large.
The phone itself is pretty darn good. An advancement for Qwest to carry this phone from previous selections. I have had the phone for a short amount of time and I am pleased with the performance.
Slender mode
Battery seems good so far
I like the clarity that I get on a conversation
Easy navigation
Good mp3 player and bluetooth stereo/data transmission
Tons of applications for this phone,
No touch screen
I like the button lock feature
T9, nuf said
No WiFi with this phone, though the outside of the box tells that it does. Did Qwest turn this function off?
No docking cradle for this phone like the PPC6700 or the new Mogul
Overall I give the phone a 4.5 of 5, because the phone offers almost all of what I like and has additional capacity for other needs. All in a small package.
Good smartphone with some compromises
VZW SMT5800 (CDMA Version)
After using it for over a week, I find it practical, functional & somewhat easy to use. I think I'll keep it for a while.
1)Great reception: haven't dropped a call yet.
2)Good form Factor: small, light & yet functional. Its phone 1st and PDA 2nd.
3)Fairly large display for this size phone.
4)Full QWERTY keypad with easy spring loaded release.
5)2 MP camera with flash, autoâfocus and video capture.
6)Expandable memory: microSDâ⢠slot (up to 8GB)
7)Can view PPS & PDF & edit Word & Excel files
8)EVâDO, 1X RTT Capable; much faster than Edge network.
9)Fast processor; applications open fast & easy
1)No Wifi
2)Battery life could be better - I found that if I dim the display light to 4, I get significantly better battery life.
3)keybad spacing both front & on the slider is a bit too close.
4)Data plan for smartphones is more expensive than for Blackberry on VZW but that's VZW for you.
Overall, I think this is a well-designed smartphone, which offers many features in a small and easy to carry package.
Qwest Fusion
Love this phone it looks way bigger than it actually is it does everything that my old typhoon does and more I would recommend this phone to anyone who wants a smart phone on the cdma network!!!! much better than the Q
Wost. Phone. Ever.
I'm not a high-maintenance phone user and this device still managed to fall well short of my already low expectations. I truly can't believe it gets positive reviews.
First, unless you have the finger size of a 9 year old girl the buttons are impossible to use. The button to select menu options and the buttons to dial a number are so small I have to use my fingernail and stab the buttons straight down. Makes even simple operations cumbersome.
The bluetooth will deactivate without reason or warning. You just all of a sudden can't make calls. And after you've used the bluetooth and try to just make a regular call, the phone locks up. I have to shut it down and walk out of bluetooth range of my car, then restart. Both of these conditions happen unacceptably often (several times a week).
I will never, ever use a phone with Windows Mobile again. It adds absolutely no benefit that I can tell, and makes even simple operations many menu clicks away.
The battery life is unacceptable. I can't have the phone on standby for more than a couple days (without making any calls). Make some calls, it's worse.
Today - on a full charge - the phone shut down after 5 hrs and would not restart. I had to remove the battery and replace it to get the phone working again.
I got this phone free with my Verizon upgrade. I can see why it was free. Even the Verizon techs I talked to say most folks hate this phone.
You are truly better off with two cans and a string.
HTC dropped the ball on this one.
I bought this phone because I was under the impression it was a decent phone. Now don't get me wrong heres the pros of this phone.
-Slide out QWERTY keyboard.
-Use of your own ringers and themes.
-amazing paperweight heh
-freezes constantly
-sometimes dont ever receive calls.
-the screen slider is really sensitive.
-camera isn't the best.
-headphone jack ( charge port ) is in the worst place.
-Unable to upgrade to WM 6.1
OK, not great
Pros- Nice screen
Small size
full slide out keyboard
fits nicely in the hand
Nice Camera
Decent video camera(for a phone)
CONS - 1. Battery life barely lasts 10hrs
2. You need to dislocate your thumb to
press the end key if you dont have the
keyboard slid out.
3. Stupid HTC (lets give them a dongle)
approach to standard connection ports
that phones have had for YEARS.
4. Voice tagging, NOT voice dialing.
You must record your own voice tag to
voice dial anyone in your contacts.
5. Truly neutered smartphone OS on this phone
Not even as robust as WM on the Q9M.
not lovng it
I purchased this phone about two months ago because i didnt have a computer and was longing for some internet access. That made the fact the manual only came on disc a bit annoying to start with. then it started freezing up on me and shutting off by itself all the time. the battery life is terrible(that is when it is working properly) and now i just got a Macbook and cant get it to sync up at all without installing windows on my mac. the case it comes with is way too tight, really hard to take out when its ringing. the keys are so sensitive if left unlocked whitch doesnt help with the battery life issues. I think they could have added a zoom to the camera I got way better pic quality out of my little cheap flip phone i replaced with this one. I got sucked in to the purchace of this phone by the keyboard and nice display screen. both of whitch i still like. however given the cost and total pain in the neck its been its hardly been worth it. Qwest told me my problems are unusual and have sent me a replacment. considering other reviews ive read i have a hard time believing it. If in fact my replacment works great i will be sure to post again. wish i hadnt signed a new two year agreement with this purchase or had returned it right away.

How to Manage Risk in the Cloud | F5
Jan 30 2020
36 mins
Peter Silva, Sr Solutions Marketing Manager - Security
Businesses are racing to deploy or move their applications to the cloud—often without considering whether it will make their security posture better, or worse.
Cloud allows organizations to offload many responsibilities to third-party providers, but mitigating the risk to your applications isn't one of them. In fact, the use of cloud and other third-party resources is rapidly expanding your attack surface, while reducing visibility and control over applications and data.

Charles Johnson, Cybersecurity Practice Manager
The best defense against a targeted attack begins with the skills of your IT team, not your IT investment. Those crucial skills should also find support in tested procedures, validated standards, and effective governance. The purpose of an investment in any technology is to support or protect business processes or add value to them. Cybersecurity tooling is no different.
In this session, learn how to leverage your current IT investment to ensure your entire organization is resilient in the face of a cyberattack, and have confidence you can weather the storm without breaking the budget.

Although not quite reaching the high-profile of other '70s beauties such as Cheryl Tiegs or Farrah Fawcett, Susan Anton managed to find success in several different areas of entertainment. Born on October 10, 1950, Anton was raised on an apple ranch in Oak Glenn, California, where she displayed an interest and talent for music at an early age. On a dare from a boyfriend, she began to enter beauty pageants while in high school and was successful enough to remain encouraged, eventually leading to her being crowned Miss California in 1969 and becoming second runner-up to Miss America the following year. Scuttling her plans to study child psychology, Anton headed to Pasadena, where she spent several years in dead-end jobs as she pursued a career in entertainment. Her break came when she assumed the role of Muriel Cigar Girl from singer Edie Adams, attracting national attention for her commercial appearances which led to television guest spots and the opportunity to replace Candice Bergen in the Tony-nominated Hurleyburley. She was given the chance to host her own television variety series, Presenting Susan Anton, in the late '70s and appeared in a number of movies, most notably Goldengirl, with her playing the title character. It was only a matter of time before she landed a record deal and, when she did, she managed to score a hit the first time out, singing a duet with Fred Knoblock on "Killing Time," which hit the Top Ten on the country charts and crossed over to become a Top 40 pop hit. Although Anton would not maintain such a level of recognition in the next two decades, she continued to stay busy and released One Night, a live collection of well-known, rock, pop, and blues songs, in 2000 to solid reviews. ~ Tom Demalon~ Rovi

22 June 2011 It seems like Huawei will be introducing a blazing fast Android smartphone to the market soon. PC Magazine managed to get a hands-on of the pre-production unit of the Huawei Glory. It has a 4-inch TFT display with 480 x 854 resolution pixels and an 8-megapixel camera with auto-focus and LED flash.
The Huawei Glory will be using a 1.4-GHz Qualcomm MSM8655T processor with Google Android 2.3.3 (Gingerbread) that is upgradeable to Android 4.0 or Ice Cream Sandwich. However, there is a mismatch of information whether Huawei Glory is using a solo-core or dual-core processor. According to PC Magazine, Huawei said that the Glory will be using a dual-core processor, while chipset maker Qualcomm said otherwise. Anyhow, we are sure that it is a fast processor and Huawei has packed the Glory with high capacity 1900 mAh battery. Huawei does not heavily tweak the stock Android OS, but does give a cool 3D cube home screens transition.

Eagles lineman Jason Peters ruptured his Achilles tendon in March during a workout. Even though Philly signed a replacement in Demetress Bell, Peters held out hope he could return late in the season. That's not going to happen, after Peters tore the tendon a second time. How it happened? Therein lies dramedy. Peters was putting about on a Roll-A-Bout knee walker, similar to the one at right.
Peters was maneuvering in his kitchen when the device broke, and he fell on his face and re-injured the Achilles.
So this is obviously one of the funniest mental pictures you could create, but also no laughing matter. I'm torn—like Peters's Achilles. He had a second surgery, and there's no way he'll be back until 2013. That's bad news for his career and his livelihood and his bank account, yet he's 340 pounds and a dinky little scooter collapsed under him and he did a faceplant. It's okay to laugh as long as you feel bad about laughing.
Peters will sue Roll-A-Bout, and hopefully submit as evidence photos of the fragile scooter lying in pieces on his kitchen tile, because those pictures would be hilarious.
