I say: Makes it quick and easy to access and edit the start menu and registry settings which determine the programs that load on start up. There's no easier way to take control over your startups. Hard to imagine a better realisation of a program designed for this task. Hard to believe it was written by a schoolboy named Mike Lin. While you're at his site if you also get StartupSelector and Startup Monitor you can take complete control over which programs register themselves to start up and even create different start-up configurations.
They say: "Startup Control Panel is a nifty control panel applet that allows you to easily configure which programs run when your computer starts. It's simple to use and, like all my programs, is very small and won't burden your system. A valuable tool for system administrators!
Startup Control Panel is compatible with all modern versions of Windows, including Windows 95, 98, 98SE, ME, NT 4.0, 2000, and XP."

For help... Please don't contact ME for help using any program. I only recommend it, I don't (and can't) offer a free support service for every program I recommend.
What you can do for yourself is...if you have any problems with anything I've recommended, contact the author of the program, or Google it.
Re: broken links... Links change. I have stated above the date on which I last checked the links. When I next update this section I'll check all the links again. So please don't contact me if the links don't work - I'll find out eventually.
What you can do for yourself is... if the links I give are broken, try searching for the program using Google or FileMirrors - that's what I'd do!
Re: it's not freeware! All of the programs I recommend in this section are 'free' in the sense that they were at one time distributed as fully functional software with no payment required for their continued use. However... some software companies withdraw their freeware, or offer programs as freeware for a short period before 'upgrading' them to shareware. So please don't contact ME to say any program I recommend is no longer freeware. I'll find out when I next update.
What you can do for yourself is... search the net... As I understand it, if you can find the original freeware distribution, and it still works, there's nothing to prevent you from legitimately using it. You could try the Last Freeware Version or OldVersion.com.

Bookseller Recommendation
Kingdom of the Blind
"Inspector Gamache has puzzled his way through 13 of Louise Penny's mysteries, and his 14th is an exceptional read. Penny brings us a mystery that will delight old-school mystery lovers (a storm, the reading of a will) as well as those who enjoy a fast-paced thriller (Gamache's plans involving the opioids he lost). The pacing is swift and the cast of characters from Three Pines is as charming and wonderful as always. The Kingdom of the Blind is easily one of the best of the series. Thank you, Louise Penny, for reminding us that kindness does exist in this mostly cruel world and that when utilized correctly, it can be inspiring and life-changing."William Carl, Wellesley Books

Job ads: reading between the lines
Stressed teacher keeps asking for a sicknote
Three GPs share their approach to a clinical problem
their approach to
a clinical problem
Case history
Mrs Peters is a teacher. She was signed off work by your partner two months ago for work-related stress. A locum gave her another sicknote last month. She has come to ask you for a further note, saying she can't face going back because her teaching and administrative workload is too great. She agrees she doesn't seem too bad today, and describes severe situational anxiety rather than depression. She says she will 'fall apart' if she tries to go in to work. The head has told her to stay off because the school risks losing the authorised relief teacher if she comes back too soon.
Dr Claire Wilkie
'She needs to think about her long-term plans in teaching'
This is, sadly, a common situation and most GPs will have highly-stressed or burnt-out teachers among their patients. I wouldn't hesitate to give her a sicknote for three or four weeks. She can't work as she is, and it will take the stress out of the consultation and allow us to address her short- and long-term problems.
We need to think about sources of help. I would ask what support the school have offered her. Have they contemplated external changes to make her job less overwhelming, such as recruiting more teachers or administrative staff? Although I'm sympathetic to the head teacher's staffing problems, they aren't my problems and Mrs Peter's welfare must come first.
I would then offer her support from the practice, including and I will suggest this with enthusiasm referral to our clinical psychologist. This would be, in particular, to deal with her self-esteem and sense of failure. These issues are likely to be important for a professional who sees herself as not being up to the job. I wouldn't advise an anxiolytic or other medication. But Mrs Peters might benefit from ?-blockers later when she does go back to work.
I would encourage her to care for herself while she isn't at work; to rest, exercise, eat well, perhaps to spend more time with her children, to look for support from friends and family.
Mrs Peters needs to think about her long-term plans and ways of avoiding this intolerable degree of stress again. Does she want to go back to teaching full-time, part-time or not at all? I would encourage her to go back even if very briefly, to avoid her feeling later that she left because she couldn't cope. Any decision about changing career should be positive, rather than a decision by default.
Clare Wilkie obtained a degree in classics before taking up medicine she finished the VTS in 1988 and is now a partner in Brixton, south London
I would ask her to see me again in four weeks, to assess her progress and the need for more time off.
Dr Liz Bowen
'I'd check Is there anything else we should delve into?'
Does she really want to do this job? If I felt the same about going to work I would look for another job rather than go to a doctor for a sicknote. Perhaps that's not a financial option for her, or one she is prepared to accept.
I presume that in the last two months she has discussed the situation with her head teacher, and they have looked at ways to alter her workload or work pattern, such as going part-time for a while.
I would try to find out what has triggered this off. Is she young or old? Has she years of successful teaching behind her and is this an acute blip? Or is she new to the job and it's really not for her? Are there any home circumstances that are influencing her anxiety? Is there anything else we should delve into?
I am sure a sicknote in the short-term was the only option to overcome an acute situation. But it feels that now the school have a decent supply teacher they are avoiding a long-term solution. It doesn't sound like the head wants her back! The easy option, and I have to confess it's the one I would go for without hesitation, is to give her another note but just to give her time to sort herself out with a future plan.
If this is something that may improve over time then I would continue to sign her off. Perhaps she needs information about how she can manage her anxiety, or counselling, or a change in her working environment until she is able to return to work.
If there is no obvious long-term solution it would be unreasonable to keep giving her notes just because she can't cope with her job. Perhaps she would need to look into an alternative career.
My gut feeling is that her workload and paperwork are unlikely to decrease. So the choice, as they say, is hers.
Liz Bowen qualified in 1992 and is now a partner in Bangor, north Wales
Dr Patrick Clarke
'We need to negotiate a plan to move things forward'
I feel sympathy for Mrs Peters. She is clearly feeling stressed and burdened by her role at school. The head teacher seems to be supporting her by 'encouraging' her to stay off. But she may not be giving Mrs Peters the help she really needs.
I would find it difficult not to give her another sicknote if she requests it. But to try to solve some of her problems I would want to look into why she is in this situation. She has had two months off and doesn't appear to have made any improvements. We therefore need to negotiate a plan to move things forward.
By agreeing to give her a sicknote at an early stage in the consultation I would hope to gain her trust and confidence. She needs to be reviewed more regularly, so a note for one or two weeks may be more appropriate with further regular reviews. I need to discuss the situations in which she feels anxious and stressed. I would hope to help her find solutions.
I would expect there are a number of other sources of help. Her partner or family may give her support, but because she appears to be having her main problems at school, she needs to work with her head teacher and colleagues to improve her situation and enable her to return to work.
Going back part-time initially may help, as would getting help with some of her administrative duties. Other agencies may also be appropriate, such as counselling, or networks that specifically help teachers.
Finally, I would set a timescale to get her back to work, with a plan or contract if necessary. She will know it isn't in her best interests to remain off work long-term. Other alternatives are medication and psychology, but I would expect to solve this before these more drastic measures are required.
Patrick Clarke completed the VTS in 2002 and is now a partner in Burnham, Buckinghamshire

Though they sometimes get bad press in the financial media, business cash advances can be an unbelievably useful tool in the hands of a smart business owner. Though they're not a silver bullet for every situation, your business can oftentimes benefit from these quick, simple transactions. But only if you can avoid the following five business cash advance mistakes that too many business owners make.
Business Cash Advance Mistake #1: Ignoring them
Maybe the most common mistake business owners make in regards to business cash advances is that they frequently won't consider them as an option at all. Owners assume that because they often look expensive (more on that later) and so much unlike other forms of business loans that they must be some kind of scam.
But that's like throwing away a teaspoon because it can't cut a steak: if you're not seeing the tool in its proper context, you're missing out on just how useful it can be.
So before you cross them off your list of options, make sure you fully understand how business cash advances work. That knowledge can be the difference between the right financing – the kind that helps build your business – and the kind that can torpedo the whole thing.
Business Cash Advance Mistake #2: Giving up on exploring options too quickly
On the other side of the coin, owners will frequently make the mistake of latching onto business cash advances right off the bat, which can easily lead to missing out on an alternative product that could better serve their needs.
Much of that decision-making error comes down to borrowers mistaking simplicity for quality. Sure, business cash advances are simple to apply for. The money appears in your account very quickly. They're available to borrowers with poor credit. All of the above statements are true and are big benefits of merchant cash advances.
However, these great benefits don't happen for free. Rates for business cash advances tend to be higher than other financing choices. It's possible to end up paying more than you're prepared for if you're not careful.
Business Cash Advance Mistake #3: Not seizing moments when a business cash advance can make all the difference
The answer is that some owners miss great opportunities for their companies out of fear of using a business cash advance. Think of the benefits. What kind of situations could arise in your business that could require you to bring in large amounts of cash very quickly?
What if a wholesaler offers a one-time deep discount on a large supply of a product you sell? Such an opportunity could provide you with a perfect way to become more profitable (by paying less for your product) and produce additional revenue. If the wholesale provider has other potential buyers, you'll want to be sure that you can get the necessary funds quickly. A business cash advance is a great answer.
Or imagine you run a restaurant and just before your busy season, your walk-in refrigerator dies. You need to replace one of your most important pieces of equipment very quickly in order to salvage the busy season. A business cash advance can help.
You could be considering expansion. If the perfect retail space becomes available unexpectedly, you need to move quickly to beat out the other multiple bidders for the space. A merchant cash advance could provide you with the money you need to submit an offer with the winning down payment.
Business cash advances are just like any other tool: extremely useful in the right context. And just like a tape measure won't help you drive a screw, nothing else can do exactly what a business cash advance does for a small business.
Business Cash Advance Mistake #4: Thinking factor rates and interest rates are the same thing
The money you pay to borrow capital in a business cash advance is called a factor rate – a number typically expressed as a number between 1 and 2. Multiply this number by the amount you're borrowing, and you'll learn just how much money you'll need to repay to cover the costs.
While a factor rate sounds very similar to an interest rate, there's a key difference: factor rates are calculated on the day you sign the agreement. This means that no matter how quickly or slowly you repay the money, the amount you pay for it will not change.
Compare the process of paying a factor rate to a typical interest rate. When you make payments on a typical loan, the principal balance decreases. And when interest is calculated again, it's calculated based on that new principal balance. But if your loan doesn't have a defined term, your principal could now actually be greater because of the impact of compounding (where interest accrues even more interest).
Since factor rate payments are typically made as a percentage of daily income, high sales mean high payments while low sales mean lower payments. This is wonderful, but it doesn't affect the fact that you will still pay the amount you agreed upon when you took out the advance.
Business Cash Advance Mistake #5: Assuming your income will stay the same
One of the great benefits of business cash advances – the automatic withdrawals – is also one of the biggest drawbacks of a traditional loan. Oftentimes entrepreneurs can mistakenly assume that their income and revenue will remain steady at all times, leading to equal-sized payments and no disruption in cash flow. However, the world doesn't always work exactly how we want to.
If you assume you'll maintain steady revenue and then find yourself having a light week, two weeks, or month, those tantalizingly simple monthly payments on your term loan will suddenly be contributing to a serious problem finding enough cash to simply keep the lights on.
But with a cash advance, you have the benefit of having your payments pegged to your incoming revenue. So you won't be stuck with a payment that you can't afford to make.
Even with this benefit you'll still have to treat paying for a cash advance just like you'd treat paying for a loan. Business cash advances that aren't fully repaid in the agreed-upon time can still result in calls from debt collectors, seizing of assets, or even legal action against your business.
Prevent any problems by preparing a business plan which takes into account the everyday randomness that comes with owning your company. Have a plan B. But whatever you do, don't let yourself be intimidated by these five mistakes that trip up so many entrepreneurs when they use a business cash advance. In many circumstances, they can be the difference between your business's success and failure.

Training Dogs – Cleaning Ears
Why does my dog not like having his ears cleaned?
Most dogs' ears are a lot larger and their ear canals are much longer than ours are. They are certainly a lot more sensitive. We usually only need to clean them when there is a problem; however at this point they may already be sore, so that the dog learns that handling around the ears is painful and tries to avoid it. Therefore, it should not be surprising that your dog struggles when you try to handle his ears, and may even become aggressive. Dogs frequently develop inflammatory conditions of the ears, so it is important to train your dog to allow handling of its ears from an early age. Ideally, this is done when the ears are healthy, so that the dog learns that handling of the ears is not a painful procedure. Then, if your dog develops an ear infection that needs treatment, it will not be as much of an issue. Early body handling with rewards is discussed in our handout on puppy handling and food bowl exercises.
If it is so sore, shouldn't I stop?
Unfortunately, if you stop when he struggles or acts aggressively, he may learn that this behavior achieves his objective. You must be aware that if the ear is extremely painful then the dog is objecting because of pain and not to be defiant. It is prudent to discuss oral medications for pain control with your veterinarian or alternate cleaning methods.
Are you suggesting that I should continue to struggle with him?
No. It is important that you never put yourself in danger; if you think there is a risk, you should seek professional assistance.
To conduct a full ear examination or to clean and start treatment on the ears when they are infected or inflamed, your veterinarian may recommend heavy sedation or a general anesthetic and a thorough cleaning procedure in the veterinary office. Often, once the ears are properly cleaned and the medication begins to work, the ears become less painful, and it becomes easier for you to continue regular treatment at home. In some cases, your veterinarian will prescribe a pain control medication or an anti-inflammatory medication to be used along with topical medications. In some cases where the ears are particularly uncomfortable these oral medications may even be used for a few days before starting the topical ear medication.
My dog is already very aggressive about having his ears touched. What should I do?
If your dog is showing signs of aggression, it may be necessary to use a muzzle before you begin treating the ears (see our handout on 'Training Products for Dogs – Muzzle Training') or to learn how to gain safe and effective control with a head halter (see our handouts on 'Training Dogs – Head Halter Training'). Again, be aware that pain will exacerbate fear and possibly aggression, and professional help in treatment may be the better option, rather than struggling with your pet.
Prevention of the behavior problem is obviously preferable, so once the current ear problem has resolved, you should begin to train your dog to allow his ears to be checked and gently cleaned as part of his routine grooming and to use food or toys as rewards to both distract your pet and to make positive associations with ear handling.
My dog has just had his ears cleaned under an anesthetic and I have been given drops to apply but I can't get near him. What can I do?
Following the steps outlined below should solve the problem in the majority of cases.
1. Ensure your dog is securely restrained using a nylon or plastic basket muzzle if necessary (see above)
2. Offer your dog a very delectable food treat with one hand and reach out towards one ear with the other. Repeat this exercise several times until your dog shows no flinching or avoiding on at least five successive occasions, then repeat on the other side. Move onto the next step when your dog consistently allows you to touch his ears.
3. Now offer your dog a treat and lift up the ear flap. Only reward those occasions when there is no flinching. Repeat as in step 2.
4. Next, progress to cleaning the ear flap with a mild cleanser or even just a damp cotton ball. Do not try to clean the ear canal at this stage. Start with short single wipes and then work up to multiple wiping sessions. Repeat as above.
5. Finally, have someone else feed the dog small pieces of favorite tidbits while you clean the ear canal and apply the medication as directed by your veterinarian. It may help to warm the medication up a little, especially if it has been refrigerated.
In some cases, you will be more successful at applying the medication if you don't allow your pet to see the container, especially if he has developed an association between the bottle and painful treatments of his ear. To do this, hide the container within your hand and try to bring it up to his ear from the side, out of view of his eyes. Often if the treat is tasty enough and lasts long enough e.g. peanut butter on a spoon or squeeze cheese, your dog may remain distracted and happy during the cleaning.
6. Finish with a treat and lots of praise and fuss.
How long is this going to take?
If your dog does not have sore ears and is not being aggressive, you may be able to teach him this procedure in a single day. However, if he is very head shy, it will take more time to get him accustomed to the procedure. In these cases, it may take several training sessions to progress through each of the steps, giving positive reinforcement (food rewards) for good behavior and negative reinforcement (no food reward) when the dog does not cooperate. Proceed at your pet's pace. A useful tip is to begin the first couple of training sessions when he is hungry, i.e. before you feed him. Food treats will then work miracles!
If you are still having problems then you should consult your veterinarian about other treatments options such as oral or injectable medication instead of drops or topical ointment, or arranging for professional help.
Once your dog's ears have improved from the treatment, it is important for you to continue to train him to allow ear handling. That way, if he does develop another problem in the future, your job will be much easier.

To many the sports simulation genre is nothing more than trumped up spreadsheets made to look pretty. However, for those invested in the sport in question, it is a pathway to guide their favoured team to unparalleled glory. More renowned for their baseball management games, Franchise Hockey Manager 2 is Out of the Park Development's second entry to tackle the hard hitting world of ice hockey. After a less than stellar entry into the genre, which we reviewed last year, the team at Out of the Park Developments were honest in their appraisal of Franchise Hockey Manager 2014. They were humble and admitted they got some things wrong. After that experience the team responsible went back to the drawing board and re-wrote the game from the ground up. Can Franchise Hockey Manager 2 right the wrongs and give hockey fans the management simulation they're after?
Right off the bat, the biggest difference between Franchise Hockey Manager 2 and its predecessor is the new look interface. From the start screen to your roster, the look and feel has been drastically overhauled. It gives the game a slightly less cluttered feel, starting with your lines being separated from your roster, and your home screen more dedicated to the overall picture of your season, with information pertaining to upcoming fixtures, league standings and so on. Main navigation is done via tabs at the top of the screen which are separated into 'Game', 'Team+League Controls', 'Manager' and 'Play'. Each of these sections have their own sub-menu allowing you to quickly access all the core functions required to do your job as either a straightforward General Manager or with the added function of being a Coach as well. Whilst limiting the main menu to just four sections could make things too simple, in this case doing so makes everything much quicker and easier to access.
Every screen you visit has been overhauled too, with a flatter feel to the aesthetics. It is easy to read and softer on the eyes making longer game sessions less daunting on the eyes. One thing that Franchise Hockey Manager 2 cannot be accused of is being lightweight in the statistics department. Presenting such a wealth of information as this game provides is no easy task, but Franchise Hockey Manager 2 manages to overcome this hurdle quite nicely with each section well laid out with all relevant numbers quickly accessible.
Speaking of numbers, the sheer depth of information available is quite simply astounding. As well as the National Hockey League (NHL) many other leagues from the around the globe are present and accounted for, including feeder teams and their respective leagues. There's even historical information included, allowing you to take control of one of the founding teams of the NHL and guide them through history and the expansion drafts that went with it. It's a credit to the developers that they have gone to such lengths to include all of this as part of the package.
Another area that has received some tender loving care is the tactics and match engine. As a coach you have an impressive amount of control over how your team shape up, depending on where the puck is and whether your team is on offense or defense. A game plan can be set for your team to follow, depending on how the game is panning out, and you can even set how much time on the ice your players get. It's an impressive set of options which to the uninitiated can seem a little overwhelming. Thankfully though, if tactics aren't your thing there are templates for you to choose from - or if you are confident you have the right man as your assistant you can let him do the heavy lifting.
However, it is also here that Franchise Hockey Manager 2 exposes its biggest flaw; accessibility. As with Franchise Hockey Manager 2014 there are no tutorials present to introduce new players to not only the game, but the genre itself. In comparison to other management simulations such as Football Manager and older versions of Sports Interactive's now resurrected Eastside Hockey Manager, those who choose to pick up Franchise Hockey Manager 2 with little to no experience of these types of game will likely find themselves a little lost, and even more so if the sport of ice hockey itself is new to them. In other sports simulations players enjoy concocting tactics of their own devising, seeing whether or not they succeed and if not trying out new ones. Newcomers to either the sport or the game will find this difficult, even if they have more than just a passing interest; the game doesn't seem to have any mechanisms within it to help either. Where a game such as Football Manager can hold a new player's hand through the first few saves, teaching them how to set things up and what to look for in their team and so on as they go, Franchise Hockey Manager 2 simply dumps the newcomer in the deep end and hopes they can swim. This doesn't mean that someone who doesn't know anything about hockey can't play and enjoy Franchise Hockey Manager 2, because they can. However, they likely won't learn anything from it either, which seems to be a missed opportunity to engage newcomers with the sport.
Moving on, and with your roster set, line-up chosen and tactics decided: game day approaches. The match screen that appears is not too dissimilar to one that you would find on an online sports website. A representation of the rink takes centre stage, with an appropriately coloured target identifying which team is in possession and roughly where on the ice the action is taking place. The descriptive side is done via text commentary below and those who have played Championship Manager games of old will feel very much at home here.
Whilst it certainly feels very nostalgic, given the game engine that their marquee title Out of the Park Baseball 2016 has we know just what the team at Out of the Park Developments are capable of. To see little to no change here is a disappointment. It gives the feeling that the team concentrated on the other facets of the game day, such as the match engine that drives this in the back-end. This is very important of course, and we don't wish to detract from the excellent work they have done here, but especially with the newly resurgent Eastside Hockey Manager having a 2D engine to represent the on-ice action something more substantial here feels like a big misstep.
With this lack of visual eye-candy and interaction on game day, you may find yourself simulating each game to avoid the match screen completely, which creates a feeling of detachment from your team. Win, lose or draw it doesn't really matter as part of the appeal of sports simulation games is creating a connection to your team and its assembled personnel. Without watching the games and seeing the fruits of your labour rip apart your opposition this relationship is harder to cultivate. Thankfully, the depth of the game comes to the rescue here and with access to farm teams, drafts and so on bringing through the next generation of players for your team can somewhat help build this relationship instead.
When all's said and done, Franchise Hockey Manager 2 is a big step up from its predecessor. Those who have stuck by the developer and go out and purchase this game having previously owned Franchise Hockey Manager 2014 will find a much more polished game this time around. They will also be pleased with the care and attention the team have given to the database, game modes and options, and the sheer number of teams and players available from the get go. The wholesale changes made have corrected many of the wrongs that were apparent with Franchise Hockey Manager 2014. However, they are not the only kid on the block and with Sports Interactive dipping their toes back into the hockey management arena with Eastside Hockey Manager the team at Out of the Park Developments will have to step up their game if they are to see this franchise survive and thrive.
A huge step in the right direction but is a tough on newcomers who may be put off by its complexity.

To collect active data on the deepest (most specific) category being browsed on the page, you must place the <isactivedatacontext> tag somewhere within the <head> or <body> tags of each site page where <script> tags are valid. The best location is wherever the category context of the site is most prominently indicated to the storefront customer, such as breadcrumbs that are rendered that show the current category.
Best practice: Include this tag in exactly one template used to make up each HTML page. If this tag appears in multiple templates used to make up a single HTML page, the latest template takes precedence. For example, if one tag indicates the Hats category, and a later tag indicates the Socks category, the Socks category takes precedence. There is no negative effect if the tag appears in multiple templates with the same category value for the same HTML page, but it's redundant. If this tag doesn't appear in any templates that are used to make up an HTML page, no category context is associated with the page.
The specified category is also associated with data collected in the page about products.
If the optional
categoryID attribute of
is set, then Salesforce B2C Commerce uses that category instead of the
category specified by the
isactivedatacontext tag to
update the

The following table shows how this feature is implemented in SiteGenesis:

As of the last post, RV Living Journey was headed to Virginia to be with family and friends for the holiday. There has been a change of plans, and instead, headed south for the rest of winter (Destination unknown at the moment). This is a tad bit disappointing as we really wanted to spend the holidays a bit more up north for the winter. Farther away from the equator where there is an actual winter season.
This due to the record cold weather that has struck the nation this season, cold fronts from the north, and winter starting earlier than usual. Ideally, we wanted to drive up to Virginia to spend thanksgiving at least, and then immediately head south before the snow came. However, those plans are ruined due to the potential freezing temperatures that will occur during the duration of the planned stay.
As newbies in the full-time RV living lifestyle, it was known but never experienced, that freezing temperatures is known to bring a myriad of issues to the rig. Issues like frozen pipes, frozen hoses, frozen tanks, etc. Turning a simple trip into an expensive disaster was not on the bucket list. While we were also aware of potential ways to mitigate the risks of frozen equipment with methods such as RV skirting, anti-freeze, and other means. It seemed like an awful lot of effort, worry, and money for such a simple trip. Rerouting the trip south for the duration of the winter season seems like the only viable option.
Staying put for a couple months was an option, but even at the current location we are staying now, Savannah, Georgia, it is possibly going to get into freezing temperatures. Which is why heading more south will be enough to beat the cold and avoid the risk of a frozen rig. Thankfully it's just a couple hours drive in any southern direction to get to warmer climate.
At this time, there is no idea of exactly where the next destination will be, but leaning towards southern Georgia, or northern Florida. Lots of research online, and calling around different RV parks seeing which one has an open "snowbird" slot for those fleeing the weather. The journey north towards Virginia will continue in the early spring once the freezing temperatures have relented. While changes in plans is always disappointing, learning to adapt, and improvise comes naturally so these small hiccups are part of the ride.
Stay warm, folks.

Title : C3 Interoperability Issues: An Overview of GOSIP Network Conformance Testing in the Evolution of the Defense Information System Network (DISN)

Abstract : This thesis analyzes some of the evolving commercial-off-the-shelf (COT'S) technologies and potential difficulties in implementing the proposed Defense Information System Network (DISN) based on Government Open Systems Interconnection Profile (GOSIP) compliance and Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) conformance testing. It starts by examining the MILDEPs Command, Control, and Communications (C3) network architectures by providing brief descriptions of the various standards. Not only does it examine such technologies as Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI), Synchronous Optical Network (SONET), Fast Packet Switching (FPS), and Broadband ISDN, but it also highlights some of the ISDN conformance test suites with a view toward migrating these architectures and technologies to the DISN. Results indicate that incompatibilities between C3 networks will be impacted more in the DISN near- term and transition phases than in the far-term. This is due in part to embedded proprietary functions permeating COTS products and the lack of fully developed ISDN conformance test specifications. The lack of clearly defined standards is a major cause of proprietary implementations. Coupled with the limited availability of ISDN conformance test suites to test multi-vendored MILDEP C3 networks, this will make deployment of the DISN a challenge. Recommendations for further research are also presented. GOSIP Conformance Testing, DISN, ISDN, B- ISDN, Interoperability, C3 MILDEP Network Architectures, Open Systems.

Governor Brown vetos unbalanced budget
Sacramento – California's Democratic governor gambled on the option of convincing Republicans to put tax extensions back on the ballot, roll back pensions, and cap spending.
Facing a $9.6 billion deficit, Governor Jerry Brown questioned a budget filled with what he called accounting gimmicks and vetoed the spending bill laid on his desk. It was the first time a governor has done so in this state since 1901.
He criticized Democratic lawmakers for sending him a bill that uses legally questionable methods and costly borrowing to keep schools and law enforcement agencies operating.
During months-long negotiations with Republicans who are demanding changes in the state's pension and regulatory systems, as well as a spending cap, Mr. Brown became stymied when GOP legislators denied him a "bridge tax" to cover the state's expenses between the start of the state's fiscal year and elections that would allow voters the opportunity to either approve, or disapprove new taxing schemes.

The Unspoilt Beauty of Australia's Top End
Australia's tropical Top End is undoubtedly one of the last great secrets of adventure travel, although the popularity of the region is now growing rapidly as word spreads about its magnificent, unspoilt natural beauty. The term Top End refers to northern region of Australia's Northern Territory, which includes the state capital city of Darwin and the town of Katherine. Darwin is serviced by many international airlines and also by the newly completed Ghan railway which connects southern Australian cities such as Melbourne, Sydney and Adelaide to Darwin via Alice Springs in Central Australia.
The Top End is a tropical region closer to Asian cities such as Jakarta and Singapore than it is to major southern Australian cities. Temperatures in the Top End hover around a comfortable 30 degrees C (85 degrees F) all year. Like most tropical areas, the Top End year is not defined by 'summer' and 'winter' weather events but by what Top-Enders call 'the wet' and 'the dry'. These terms refer to the wet and dry seasons respectively, which should be taken into consideration when planning an itinerary for exploring the Top End as road conditions and access vary greatly according to season. Wet season flooding can occur from November to April, and may cause temporary closure of routes to some of the more spectacular but remote Top End destinations.
Among the many magnificent natural assets that the Top End is endowed with are Kakadu National Park, Litchfield National Park, and Katherine Gorge.
Kakadu National Park is a World Heritage listed park located approximately 250km east of Darwin, and can be accessed via the Arnhem Highway from Darwin or the Kakadu Highway from Katherine. A return day trip from Darwin to Kakadu is possible, but in order to fully experience the magic of Kakadu a few days should be allowed. The name Kakadu, sometimes also spelt as Kakudju or Gagadju, is the name of the indigenous language spoken in the north western section of what is now Kakadu National Park.
The earliest recorded examples of European contact with the Kakadu area includes the visits of anthropologists Baldwin Spencer in 1912 and N. B. Tindale in 1928. Kakadu National Park is characterised by dramatic landscapes, exceptional Aboriginal rock art and a diverse and fascinating wildlife. Apart from a few areas, Kakadu does not consist of dense tropical rainforest but rather of flat tropical savanna woodland. The abundance of birdlife and other wildlife which flocks into its wetlands during the dry season demonstrates how important Kakadu is to the flora and fauna of the area, and in fact Kakadu's World Heritage listing was based primarily on its importance as a wetlands area. Kakadu contains over 1000 plant species, one quarter of all freshwater fish species found in Australia, and one third of all bird species.
Kakadu National Park is a large park of over 6000 square kilometres, and comprises several distinct sub-regions. The plateau subregion is a rugged sandstone formation which rises sharply to a height of 250 m from the lower lands to the north and creates some of the most spectacular scenery in the park. The escarpment extends for over 600 km and is the site of many major waterfalls and deep gorges. The lowlands subregion is a vast eroded plain with a numerous rocky outcrops to the north of the escarpment. The floodplain subregion lies to the north of the plateau and receives the full force of wet season monsoonal rains from November to March, when the region becomes a vast expanse of water. In the dry season the Kakadu floodplain is characterised by permanent billabongs. This area of Kakadu is famed for waterlilies and edible lotus lilies. The tidal flats subregion is a coastal salt water area characterised by mangroves and rainforest which can survive on sandy saline soils. Finally, Kakadu's southern hills subregion is located at the southern most point of the park where the headwaters of the South Alligator River run through stony woodland country.
Litchfield National Park is located about 130 kms south of Darwin. Its easy access from Darwin mean that more than a quarter of a million visitors visit the park annually, journeying to view the monsoonal rainforest, permanent spring—fed waterfalls, magnetic termite mounds, weathered sandstone outcrops and historic ruins. Litchfield can be comfortably explored in a one day drive from Darwin, although there is plenty of accommodation in the region of you wish to stay longer. Litchfield has its major attractions linked by sealed road, although a 4WD is necessary to access some of the more remote natural attractions.
Among Litchfield's most popular attractions are Wangi Falls, twin waterfalls that cascade into a large pool amid lush rainforest, and Buley Rockhole, a chain of small pools linked by small waterfalls. Both locations are accessible and popular swimming places. Other attractions include the steep and spectacular Tolmer Falls, a group of fantastically-shaped sandstone towers known as the Lost City, and the magnetic Termite Mounds, two-metre high thin towers aligned north-south to keep the inside of the mound cool against the heat of the sun.
Katherine Gorge, also known by the aboriginal name Nitmiluk, is located in Nitmiluk National Park about 300 kilometres south of Darwin. It is one of the most spectacular areas in the Top End, winding 12 km through 13 separate gorges with walls more than 70m high. The park is rich in Aboriginal rock art representing the spiritual 'dreaming' of the Jawoyn people, the traditional owners of the land. Unlike Kakadu, Nitmiluk National Park welcomes bushwalkers along its more than 100 kilometres of walking tracks that meander through the park, including a five-day trek to Edith Falls.

So far this year I've had an unusual amount of businesses who have reached out to me for help regarding regaining ownership of their domain names and websites. They all had something in common. Digital Marketing agencies were holding their domain names for ransom. By ransom I mean, the business owners are being charged a release fee or a change of ownership fee.
I hadn't experienced this type of situation for years. In my mind, I thought this kind of practice didn't happen any longer. Boy, was I wrong.
It's been my practice to ensure that every client I've ever worked with; understood they need to be the owners of their domain names, web files and hosting account information. I always explain, "What if something was to happen to me? How do you update your website?" You need full access to easily hire a new web designer and keep your business moving forward.
I'm not sure what was more astonishing during this experience: the fact that these agencies thought they weren't doing anything wrong or the fact that they wanted hundreds of dollars for a domain that consisted of a local business' fictitious name. If anyone out there has dealt with something like this then you will know, it's super hard to reason with these scammers. Yeah I said it, SCAMMERS!
It saddens me so much that local businesses with lesser knowledge have to deal with this behavior. This is why I go above and beyond while I get these digital properties back in the hands of the rightful owners. In future posts I will attempt to give some advice that have helped me resolve these issues for my clients. For now here's a list of what you need to make sure when working with a web design marketing agency or individual.
1. Do not sign a contract with any company unless it specifically states that you will retain ownership of your domain name and web files at the minimum.
1. Sign up to a domain name registrar using your email and custom password. Buy the domain name from the account you created. Sit with your web designer in-person to allow them to modify any settings that they may need.
2. If you need a web host, make sure you sign up using your email and custom password. Get to know your web person before you give them full access to the hosting account.
3. If your web person is going to host your website for you on their server then you will need to request all login credentials to that account in the case you need to transfer it to another hosting company should your relationship go south. At the very least you should be given a full backup of your website and email upon request.
4. When hiring new web developers, change your password to something new.
Bottom-line, just like anything else in your business, you need to have access and ownership of all your digital real estate, ie. domain names, web files, photos, vdeos, etc.

Last month Ted and I bought a queen from a line of Vermont survivors (surviving winter and disease). She was mated and was laying very well in her nuc. On July 27 we released this queen into our weakest hive, Tylissos. Ted has been checking the hive often since then. For the last couple of weeks he has been quite concerned: he couldn't find the queen, he saw only capped drone cells, and he suspected that the hive had gone laying worker.
Yesterday Jason Deal, who runs Star Valley Apiary and sold us the queen, very kindly came over to look at the hive, bringing another queen with him in case the first one had gone missing. The three of us suited up and looked at bars. Then we looked at bars some more. We searched every single bar of that hive three times. We had been out there for the better part of an hour before Jason sang out, "Found her!"
He had a yellow marker with him and dotted her with it. There is actually a color of the year you're supposed to mark your queens, and this year is yellow. We watched her for a few seconds before she vanished under a mound of bees again.
Jason didn't see signs of chalk brood, so the new queen's first-hatched bees look to have cleaned it out, which is nice. There are some eggs and larva in a spotty pattern. Jason had two guesses about why her laying is so spotty. He was able to verify the first guess on the spot by watching the traffic in and out of the hive: they're being robbed! He showed us how to identify robber bees tentatively slinking into the hive. With stronger hives swiping this one's honey the queen isn't getting the nutrition she needs. Guess two: disease. Since this hive didn't build up in the springtime and had a bout with dysentery, Jason suspects nosema, which may still be present.
What to do about the robbers? We could swap the locations of a strong colony and this one, however, that would risk weakening the strong colony, especially if they have nosema. We could also truck the weak hive to an out yard more than four miles away. We don't have any outyards yet though. We could just try to strengthen the hive, which is our choice.
What to do about nutrition? We're going to feed this hive. Now that our big nectar flow is over (blackberries!), Kitsap beekeepers are currently not feeding so the queens will fill the empty cells with their winter bees. In this case though we need to build the colony's nectar stores back up. Jason recommends feeding 1:1 (1 part sugar to 1 part water).
What to do about the possible nosema? Jason suggested sending a sample to Beltsville.
We're awfully grateful to Jason for taking the time to check out the hive. He's a very conscientious beekeeper and queen rearer, we're extremely lucky to have him.

It seems that lately, the only thing more difficult than finding someone we want to enter into a relationship with, is figuring out exactly how to make that relationship last when we finally do.
It's important to remember that the effort it took to get someone's attention will also be the effort it takes to keep someone's attention. Nobody will end up happy if you immediately become comfortable and complacent after commitment has been established. You've got to keep stoking the fire.
Here are a few tips for making it happen.
Keep dating.
When you are 'dating' someone, it is not just an arbitrary term to signify exclusivity. It should literally mean that you are actually frequently going on dates with each other. It is the natural instinct when we end up in a relationship to take a deep sigh of relief, sit down on the couch, and start ordering…

Hamilton, Ont. is undergoing a renaissance and its neighbour Halton Region is looking at tremendous growth, delegates attending the recent Hamilton-Halton Construction Association (HHCA) 2018 Construction Forecast event were told, conditions that mean there will be lots of work for area constructors in the short and medium term.
The focus was on local public sector spending at the event. Representatives from Hamilton Public Works, the Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board, Halton Region Public Works, the Hamilton Light Rail Transit office and McMaster Innovation Park were on hand to discuss their upcoming capital spending programs.
HHCA general manager Sue Ramsay said the economic fundamentals of the region are strong.
"I think Hamilton has momentum and the message that I took from the speakers is that Hamilton has confidence," she commented. "There is a lot of confidence in the economy in the larger Golden Horseshoe that the area is booming. We are coming into a renaissance in this city and people are really excited.
"We are happy to have the Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board here, they have had a lot of funding coming their way in the past year and a lot of work coming up."
School board project supervisor Nadeen Shehaiber advised delegates that tender announcements for new schools and major renovations would be coming out in regular intervals starting soon. Among the imminent new builds with tenders expected this year will be a new Greensville elementary school in Flamborough, the new Beverly elementary school also in Flamborough, two new elementary schools in Stoney Creek, Summit Park and Eastdale, and the new Nora Frances Henderson Secondary School.
Two other new schools, Glen Campus and Memorial, are in the early design stages with approvals not yet obtained.
Major renovation projects include Collegiate Ave. and Sir Wilfrid Laurier Elementary.
Shehaiber also noted the school board has $21 million budgeted annually for gymnasium expansions, new science labs, learning commons and visual arts rooms.
Many of the largest local public projects are scheduled for Halton Region, with the municipality's manager of capital engineering and construction in the public works department Marek Braczek telling HHCA delegates Halton needs to accommodate expected population growth of 250,000 over 15 years. Halton is forecasted to have 820,000 residents by 2031.
Staging of projects will be important, said Braczek, as many of the builds will affect major existing arteries, such as Dundas Street and Trafalgar Road.
"There is not a lot of rocket science that goes into watermains but there are a lot of logistics," he said.
"We need to be working with the industry to ensure you are as vested as we are in success."
Between 2018 and 2027, the region plans to spend $2.1 billion on water and wastewater projects, $1.6 billion on transportation builds and $40.2 million on waste management projects, Braczek said.
In 2018 alone, there will be 30 tenders issued for water and wastewater projects representing $73.8 million in capital spending, and six tenders valued at $134.2 million for road works.
First up is the widening of Upper Middle Road in Oakville, with a tender to go out in February and a project budget of $8.6 million.
There will be a March tendering of water projects in Burlington valued at $4.4 million and another in April for more Burlington water works with a contract value of $11.4 million.
Major road projects to be tendered include the new 1.3-kilometre, four-lane William Halton Parkway in Oakville, to be tendered in the third quarter of this year with a project budget of $32.55 million; the widening of Dundas Street in Oakville, with the tender coming in April and a project value of $26.4 million; and the $20-million widening of Trafalgar Road in Oakville, to be tendered in the third quarter.
City of Hamilton director of energy, fleet and facilities management Rome D'Angelo told HHCA members the city has approved $21.8 million for future capital projects falling in the corporate facilities, recreation facilities and entertainment facilities envelopes.
In addition, there will be a major new build for the Hamilton Police Investigative Services Division.
D'Angelo also had major news from CityHousing Hamilton — his department has been asked to work on a delivery model for five new projects totalling $61 million.
As previously reported, the project team for the billion-dollar Hamilton LRT build will likely be announced next year, Hamilton LRT manager Trevor Horzelenberg told the Daily Commercial News, with the start of construction currently scheduled for 2018.
McMaster Innovation Park (MIP) interim CEO Nick Markettos presented details on two upcoming projects for the MIP site in west Hamilton. A new 100,000-square-foot Emerging Technology Centre is being built to attract researchers from around the world. Announced last August, the firm No. 16 Hospitality is planning to build a 134-room, five-storey Hyatt House hotel in the park that is scheduled to open in the summer of 2019. The project value is $20 million.
