Nominations for the PIR Board of Directors are now closed.
The Internet Society is now accepting nominations for the Board of Directors of the Public Interest Registry (PIR). PIR's business is to manage the international registry of .org, .ngo, and .ong domain names, as well as associated Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs).
In 2019 there are three positions opening on the PIR Board. The three directors will serve a 3-year term that begins mid-year 2019 and expires mid-year 2022.
About Public Interest Registry
For more information about PIR, please see https://pir.org/about-us/
Desired Qualities and Experience for Candidates
PIR is a non-profit domain name registry, set up under U.S. law. Prior Board experience is preferred. All directors must be able to read and understand a balance sheet, as well as read and communicate effectively in the English language.
General Qualities for PIR Board Service:
- Strong business acumen, an understanding of the Board's oversight role, and experience relevant to overseeing an online business;
- Good understanding of the functioning of the Internet and the associated technologies;
- Demonstrated abilities as a long-term, strategic thinker;
- High ethical standards and integrity;
- Well-developed collaboration and consensus-building skills;
- Strong communication skills;
- Passion and energy for the role.
Specific Skills, Competencies, and Experience Sought:
- Strong financial acumen;
- Familiarity with U.S. Tax law under which PIR operates, especially as it pertains to the 501(c)3 status for non-profits (this is in no way intended to restrict candidates to those from the U.S.);
- Venture-oriented; Experience finding efficiencies and growth in stable markets;
- Good understanding of Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs);
- Experience and careers outside of the traditional ICANN/TLD/Domain-business area, which could help provide more outside independent viewpoints for the PIR Board;
- Demonstrated experience with technological aspects of the Internet and more specifically the DNS;
- Technical experience outside of but relevant to the domain name industry, such as with email, web hosting, cloud services, or other broader online service delivery.
We expect all candidates to be able to fulfill the general qualities criteria, and to have outstanding strengths in at least one of the specific criteria. Gender balance, geographic, cultural, and other forms of diversity are also key considerations. In addition, we will explore any potential conflicts of interest that may exclude some nominees.
Time Commitment
The time commitment expected of Board members is significant, including approximately 15 full days per year for face-to-face meetings (not including travel time), regular conference calls (generally monthly), and daily email correspondence. Meetings will be held via teleconference, videoconference, and in person.
Board meetings typically include:
- Board Meetings: three to five per year, of one and a half days in length plus travel time. Typically, two of these will be held in the USA and the other two or three are generally co-located with ICANN meetings that occur around the world.
- Strategic Planning Retreat: one per year, generally three days plus travel time, and these can be anywhere in the world.
- PIR Advisory Council Meeting: one per year, generally three days plus travel time, and these can be anywhere in the world. Board participation in these meetings is optional.
- Conference calls: as needed, nominally monthly.
- Email correspondence: daily.
Because the board is intentionally small, it is important that nominees seriously consider their potential role as a director and the time commitment that this entails. In addition, some leadership roles and committees will require more time. For example, there are five elected officer positions: Chair, Vice-Chair, Treasurer, Secretary, and Assistant Secretary (currently filled by someone that is not a director), and there are numerous committees.
Reimbursement of Travel Costs
Reasonable travel costs, in accordance with PIR's travel and expense policies, are reimbursable.
Compensation of Directors
Directors that participate in all meetings are eligible to accept compensation up to USD $12,000 per year, paid quarterly in arrears, as compensation for their services as a director. Compensation for Board service is not guaranteed and can be amended or abolished at any time, at the discretion of the PIR Board's Compensation Committee. Directors may of course decline to receive compensation.
How to Nominate Yourself
Nominations are now closed. The deadline for application was 15:00 UTC on February 4, 2019.
How the Selection Process Works
The Internet Society Board of Trustees selects new PIR Directors from the pool of nominees. This is expected to occur by March 22, 2019, and all candidates will be contacted as appropriate once the selection process is complete.
In This Solicitation – Please Take Note
We are seeking nominations for the PIR Board, not the Internet Society Board. In addition, the PIR Board is dedicated to the successful and continued operation of PIR's business, and is not a policy-based or missionbased organization in the manner of the Internet Society.

text: The rig that exploded in 2010 killed 11 workers and spilled 4.9 million barrels of oil into the sea [AP]Halliburton says it has agreed to pay $1.1bn to settle a substantial portion of claims arising from its role in the 2010 Gulf of Mexico oil spill. The settlement announced on Tuesday would be paid in three installments into a trust until appeals are resolved over the next two years. It is subject to court approval. Halliburton said the money would be paid to the Gulf fishing industry and other victims of the Deepwater Horizon disaster, including some claims made in suits against oil giant BP. Under contract with BP, Halliburton constructed the cement casing of the offshore deepwater Macondo well that blew out on April 20, 2010, killing 11 people. The blast sank the BP-leased Deepwater Horizon drilling rig and sent 4.9 million barrels of oil gushing into the Gulf over 78 days, soaking shores in several states, killing wildlife, and shutting down the fishing industry on much of the US gulf coast. In 2013 Halliburton was fined for destroying evidence relating to the accident. Rig contractor Transocean, which employed nine of the workers killed, agreed to pay $1.4bn in settlement last year, while BP has paid about $28bn so far.

How do I get into social work?
You need an approved social work qualification – either a BA undergraduate degree or a postgraduate masters degree – to register as a social worker. You'll also need to be able to explain why you want to go into social work and what you have to offer, as well as being able to give examples that show you have the emotional resilience needed to do the job.
You'll need some experience of social work or social care before applying, which could be obtained through paid work, placements or volunteering. Personal experience such as caring for a friend or relative could also be relevant.
You could gain relevant experience by supporting people in care homes, youth clubs, play schemes or after-school clubs, by being involved in mentoring or anti-bullying schemes, or by working with the elderly or people with a disability.
Undergraduate and postgraduate degrees in social work
To get onto an undergraduate social work degree in England, you'll typically need five GCSEs including English and maths and at least two A levels with a minimum of 112 UCAS points, or an equivalent qualification such as the NVQ level 3 in health and social care. It may help if you have studied social science subjects at A level or equivalent, or other subjects that have developed your ability to communicate. However, there are no standard subject requirements. Find out more about the skills required for social work from our advice on whether this career would suit you.
As part of your application you're likely to need to write a personal statement. Steer clear of observations such as 'I have a passion for helping people', and instead reflect on how your experience has helped you to develop the skills needed for social work, such as organisation, motivation and the ability to work well with others. Show that you have the ability to analyse situations critically and solve problems.
Undergraduate social work degrees take three years full-time, while a postgraduate masters degree in social work usually takes two years. There is currently some funding available from the NHS Business Services Authority (NHSBSA) for social work students on both undergraduate and postgraduate courses. You can find out more about studying social work and the funding arrangements from our advice on the university route into social work.
Frontline: the fast-track graduate social work training scheme
The Frontline programme trains graduates to undertake children's social work over the course of two years. You can apply with a 2.1 degree in any subject. Those recruited on to the programme are based in a local authority, supervised by a qualified social worker, and become qualified themselves at the end of the first year, going on to manage their own caseloads in the second year. They are paid a bursary of between £16,000 and £19,000 in the first year and then earn a newly qualified social worker's salary of around £30,000 in the second year. You can find out more about the values you'll need to share to get a place on the programme from our advice on whether a career in social work is right for you.
Registering as a social worker
Social workers must be registered with one of the following organisations, depending on where in the UK they are based:
- Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC), the organisation responsible for social care regulation in England
- Care Council for Wales
- Northern Ireland Social Care Council
- Scottish Social Services Council
You are only eligible for registration if you have an approved qualification – either a social work undergraduate degree or a masters degree in social work.
Support for newly qualified social workers
Arrangements for newly qualified social workers vary across the UK. In England, newly qualified social workers can improve and develop their practice by taking part in the Assessed and Supported Year of Employment (ASYE) scheme, but this is not compulsory. However, all social workers are expected to take responsibility for their own professional development and keep a record of this. From time to time the HCPC carries out an audit of a sample of social workers to ensure that this is being done.
In Wales, newly qualified social workers are expected to undertake a year-long consolidation programme, during which time all of their work is under clear supervision and managerial support. Undertaking the consolidation programme will be a condition of renewing professional registration for social workers qualifying after 1 April 2016.
In Scotland, there is not a specific scheme to support social workers in the first year of work after qualification. However, they are expected to undertake 24 days of training and learning within twelve months of registering with the Scottish Social Services Council, and five days of this must relate to the protection of adults or children from harm.
In Northern Ireland, newly qualified social workers must undertake the assessed year in employment (AYE) in order to become fully registered with the Northern Ireland Social Care Council. During the course of the year the employer is expected to provide regular supervision and allocate a range of work that will enable social workers to build on their skills. At the end of the year, social workers must provide comprehensive evidence of their professional development.
Can I get into social work without a degree?
You cannot become a social worker without an approved qualification – a BA degree or postgraduate masters in social work. However, you may be able to find a job as a social work assistant without a degree. Here are some examples of the typical tasks that social work assistants undertake:
- Advising clients and their families about where to go for help and support
- Keeping records and writing reports
- Making appointments
- Visiting people at home to check how they are
- Putting together care plans or following a social worker's care plan
You could also consider applying for jobs in social care. This is a very broad field including a range of roles in areas ranging from providing personal care to supporting people with disabilities into employment.
There are no fixed qualification requirements for the majority of these roles, so they are potentially wide open to school leavers. You can take care-related qualifications at different levels and your employer may support you to do this while you are working. You can find out more from our advice on jobs and employers in social work.

bucket (AWS bucket)
A bucket is a logical unit of storage in Amazon Web Services (AWS) object storage service, Simple Storage Solution (S3). Buckets are used to store objects, which consist of data and metadata that describes the data.
An S3 customer must create a bucket before he can store data in Amazon's public cloud and specify access privileges for the bucket by using the AWS Policy Generator. Although customers are not charged for creating buckets, they are charged for storing objects in a bucket and for transferring objects in and out of buckets.
There is no limit to the number of objects a customer can store in a bucket, but each AWS account can only have 100 buckets at one time.

Number Crunching in: "My troops are better than yours"
Foodie here, and despite working 50-60 hour work weeks *and* trying to coordinate a job/apartment search across state lines, I'm bringing you a little number-work and (hopefully) some food for thought.
Now, caveat emptor that this is by no means the be-all-end-all of arguments for or against any specific troop, army, or anything in between. This is meant to be simply my answer of "oreally?" to a lot of the "Army X = suckzor because troop choice Y = not as good as troop Z" that the interwebs seems to be fond of.
Granted, for every blog/opinion saying the new Tau/Eldar are weaksauce, there's another voice jumping up and down with glee... so remember to take everything you read (even this) with a grain of salt.
The premise here is to take a look at what is "the standard" - the bolter-toting marine - and compare the damage output to some "lesser" troops - in today's case my humble Kabalite Warriors.
10 Basic Marines (aka, the Tactical Squad) rings in at about 140 points. We're following the Dark Angel method because free weapon upgrades aren't "the norm" (maybe C:SM will keep that perk in later editions, maybe not), and because it makes the maths infinitely easier.
To keep things fair, they're being paired off against equal points of stock Kabalites (no blaster for me!). In very un-Dark Eldar-esque fashion, I've even rounded down to 135 points (that's 15 warriors instead of the 15.5 I'd have for the full 140).
The test? Line them up, and pull the trigger. No turn-based action or who gets the jump on who, just blank numbers and who kills what.
Step the First
If we take a look at the respective Codex stats (which is what many derive initial reactions from) the Marines, as you may have guessed, pull wildly ahead. The Marines wrack up 4.4 kills (about 40 points worth) while the Kabalites only register 1.6 (or 23 points). So Marines are looking almost twice as good for the same points.
That's awesome! Marines are rawkzors!! Awww yeah Imperials!!
Because we're all playing those intro games from the starter sets, right? Where you line up 10 orks vs 10 marines, walk across a board with 1 piece of cover, and see who wins, right? Right??!!?
Or, maybe things are a little more detailed than that. So let's take a look at the possibilities.
Step the Second
Let's throw those Kabalites into some cover (5+) and toss on that first Pain Token for Feel No Pain. Cover is easy, almost a given if you want it. The Token is *slightly* circumstantial. It can be bought (via attached Heamy) with more points, doled out via a Cronos (kind of more points) or earned by killing a target of opportunity (freebie).
With what boils down to a re-rollable 5+, the kill rate that the Marines have drops to less than half of what it was - 1.98 (let's round to 2) for 18 points-worth of gory death.
Meanwhile the Kabalites shooting Marines sitting in a forest maintain the same kill rate (unless you start to factor going to ground, but hey, Kabalites can do that too - I'm ignoring that for now).
What if I got smart and placed a Ruin in my deployment zone? Marine kills drop to 1.4 (1.5 for mathematical ease) and a point-death of 13.5 (less than one marine).
Step the... One and a Half
Yeah, that means I'm backtracking. Because I can already hear the interwebs raging at me "Oh lo and behold ye Foodie, who gives the best of everything to his preciouses Kabalites!! Pain tokens are cool, but they're not automatic!!!"
And I concede that you have a valid point - while getting FnP on my troops is within my rules, it is not a guarantee (without plugging more points elsewhere in the army). It's nice to look at the best case scenario, but hardly effective when trying to get a good feel for what an army can dish out and take, realistically.
But cover, still, is mostly a given. Unless you hate yourself and put nothing in your deployment zone worthwhile. But hey, whatever floats your boat (or crashes it, burning and screaming, as the case would be).
So give the basic Kabalite a 4+ cover save, and the Marines clock in 2.2 kills (about 20 points). Remember above when the Kabalites killed 1.6 marines, doing 23 points worth of damage?
Kabalites in Ruins > Marines in Ruins
Fun fact - Kabalites shooting at other Kabalites do more damage in every scenario compared to Marines.
So, Marines >>>> Kabalites in the open, but Kabalites > Marines when utilizing the board. What's this mean in real life?
If I play like an idiot, I get beat like a bass drum. If I start to think critically and use what amounts to baseline tactics, I start to get an edge.
This is what I have, in my current groggy state, have dubbed Variance. A marine is a marine, which definitely has it's upside - you know what to expect, it's standardized, you're as durable advancing over open ground as you are ducking behind a forest. Kabalites, on the other hand, have a *very* fluctuating capacity for damage based on how they're utilized. Leave them in a bad spot and they're going to get hosed. Take a bit of care with them and they start to stand up as well or better than Marines.
The Real Caveat
Obviously this is a closed test, and extremely limited. What happens when you drop a cover-ignoring template? What happens when you use S6 weaponry to ignore FNP? What happens when you shoot lances at Marines? What happens when Night Shields make it impossible for those marines to bring their guns to bear?
This is, at best, an eye opener to those who look at a stat-line and draw base conclusions from those numbers. They're a start, sure, but hardly the finish line. Kabalites (and other Dark Kin) are perhaps one of the more interested examples due to the ability to add special rules by killing things. Tau altering BS or other modifiers with Marker Lights would be another example.
I'm interested in looking at other troops to see how they really stack up. Is Tau BS3 really so bad that S5 and 30" doesn't make up for it (and that's before Markerlights)? Maybe so. Maybe not, when you consider the cost of the unit. For now, it's time to put my mind (and body to boot) to rest.

Wow! This is one of the better articles I've read on here and does a really good job at systematically and mathematically breaking down what Godfrey and I have been trying to underscore with marines over on Rites. It highlights the impact of "hording up," as well as placing emphasis on denying a save, something easier said than done for some armies. In part, that touches on a huge strength that Tau still/now have, is the ability to deny cover with any of their weapons. With the addition of some large 8/3s to the codex, it's very easy for them to quickly punish more elite army builds.ReplyDelete
I agree with Corvus! This article is spot on. Funny enough, I was talking to a very un-perspectived player a few weeks back (he's only been playing since 3rd, and has only ever played Tau), and he tried to bust out some math-hammer on me. We were comparing the Annihilator and the Hammerhead. He claims that I have a 2.18% better chance of killing the Hammerhead than he had of killing my Predator. I asked if this took into account the Disruption pod. Or the fire arcs. Or the movement. Or any of the other factors. Not accounting for any of this, I then asked if a 2% chance meant anything on a d6 in a turn, and he denied that argument. The idea of 'variance' and tactics just didn't matter because I had the better tank. I sighed often.ReplyDelete
I'm glad to see a 'math-hammer' article that actually addresses how ludicrous it can be if that's the way judgements are made. It has its place, for sure, but it's certainly not an exact science. Great work! Thank you.

I started a small SoB army and I've been finding that 12 point sisters of battle are /extremely/ durable, especially when you combo them with Kyrinov (the guy with the fearless bubble).
The 3+ save isn't something I'm used to and, despite T3, they soak up a LOT of punishment. It's really changed my views of power armour troops in general.
The thing to keep in mind is that marines are defensive units, not offensive. They project board control because they soak up a lot of punishment and don't go down very easily. Their firepower is pretty puny which is why they stack up badly against Kabalites.
The problem with Kabalites is that they are in deep trouble as soon as they face off against troops that have the tools to deal with them. And there's a lot that can deal with them. Anything with flamers or that assaults at all well can deal with them easily. Compare that to a marine squad. They will probably lose in assault too but they'll stay there for a long time, giving your specialist troops a chance to respond.
Both troops are good, but Kabalites' real strength is their poisoned shots whereas for marines it's their incredible durability. For damage output you need wyches. They, point for point, will shred MEQs. Especially once you add in a venom blade. The good thing about wyches is that you pick your fights so it's never a 1:1 fight. More like 3:1 :)
"Variance" is the key to the whole game -- well, most of it. Yes, the raw stats and capabilities is the basis for the game, but a smart player thinking outside the box with a handful of poorly equipped troops can take out the marines who trudge blindly forward. It's how you play the game. The math exists to give it all a field on which to play, but dice can always come up with 1s or 6s when you least expect. Then it's the cunning general that survives and wins.ReplyDelete
I know the new Eldar are going to create a similar stir. I think it's good to mix things up and force old players used to winning by the same math-crunching methods to do some recalculations and find new ways to play.
I think Kabalite Warriors are one of the most under appreciated units in the game. While its situational the poisoned shooting is obviously a lot better than bolters in specific circumstances. I noticed for instance that Thunderwolves started to disappear after the release of the new dark eldar codex.ReplyDeleteReplies
I played against a mock-ravenwing a week or two ago. I almost felt bad.Delete
Great article. The problem I have with Dark Eldar and the Kabalite warrior is that when you come out of cover you are dead. I would have liked the DE to have a FNP of 4+ to make them more viable. That being said, flickerfield should be a 4+ cover. If you changed that, I would bring them back out.ReplyDelete
It's not the statline about MEQ in my opinion its the power armor and ATSKNF that makes them so good.Replies
Kabalites are a niche unit. Wyches are just so much better, close combat is far more decisive than shooting. TBH if DE are taking many hits they're doomed. I don't think I've felt the FNP change too badly except when raiders explode.Delete
And who needs a 4+ cover save from a flickerfield when you get one for going flat out anyway?
Excellent article. I really liked it and glad I found it!ReplyDelete

Sad toddler wants her newborn cousin at her birthday
Family bonds are strong and sometimes unbreakable, and this precious little girl is the living proof. We know that love between siblings can be a bit tricky (fighting, toy supremacy and such), but the love between cousins is also very strong.
This adorable girl has a newborn cousin that was born just a day before her birthday, and she doesn't understand why she can't attend. Mom gives her best to console her, but as you can probably see – nothing works.
Sierra is heartbroken after finding out that her long awaited baby cousin can't make it to her birthday party, even though she had just been born 5 minutes before this video was filmed! Adorable!

The famous skin contest organized by CarPark comes back with plenty gorgeous creations.
It is all about creating 2D skins… but in a certain way. For this second edition, constraints were clear: chosing among existing models from CarPark to turn them into perfect "team skins".
The best creator of this edition was Gicle, who made a gorgeous ACURA-PARK! He is followed by Tomerq and Pinky who proposed beautiful models of Porsche 911 and Volkswagen Scirocco. A real pleasure for the eyes, as the 62 models created were all amazing…
The cherry on the cake: you can watch all these models on a short video available on the website. A real treat…

Digital transformation in the travel industry [Part one]: Accessibility
Nowadays, it's quite easy to go on a travel. Quite actually, any trip starts when people pull their phones out of their pockets. Travel to a city nearby by train or in a stranger's car? Find a deal for a weekend trip? Learn what people think about a destination? By now it doesn't feel like "there's an app for that", but "there have been apps for that around forever."
As a result, today's travel marketplace is saturated with robust disruptors and agents such as Airbnb or Uber that connect assets with users and serve as the middleman in transactions. Beyond the fact that it's a huge industry — the global economic contribution of the travel and tourism industry is estimated to be over $7.5 trillion dollars ! a simple reason why travel was easy to disrupt early on: people love to talk about it.
[inlinetweet prefix="" tweeter="" suffix=""]The simple reason why travel was easy to disrupt early on: people love to talk about it.[/inlinetweet]
For example, a hotel has an average of 238 reviews. As people enjoy sharing stories, photos, or videos about their latest trip, they enjoy recommending what went well for them with their family, friends, and a digital community of like-minded travelers. This makes it easy for innovative products and solutions to quickly gain traction and win a large user base.
And, perhaps most importantly, travel is highly personal — We travel, initially, to lose ourselves; and we travel, next, to find ourselves.
It's interesting to glance at some of the fastest-pacing travel disruptors through these lenses. Airbnb offers users on both sides of its marketplace a chance to break away. Travelers can live in somebody else's apartment and explore new surroundings, while hosts have a chance to meet new people and shake up their routines. The approach has been quite convincing for many customers. Within just seven years, Airbnb became a global player with a valuation of around $25 billion, more than the Hilton Group has worldwide.
On a similar note, Uber drivers become entrepreneurs and passengers gain mobility through new travel options. Services like Trivago, Hotel Tonight, and Holiday Guru offer an easy way to book last-minute deals directly from a smartphone and put people in a position of spontaneous decision-making, the chance to break away on short notice.
The main notion that digital has brought to travel is enhanced accessibility. -Another example, travelers can access to formerly private or semi-private spaces—staying as guests in other people's homes or driving around in the back of their cars—either by literally making a new asset class like "a bed in a home" or "a seat in a car" bookable, or by linking metadata to places to make access more meaningful. This newly-emerging, fragmented digital travel ecosystem provides the user with almost infinite access to the world. And inevitably, we start to search for what is truly special in this digitally-enabled world of infinite access—we begin to look for authentic experiences.

Romance scam letter(s) from Natalia Novoselova to Remko (Netherlands)
Letter 1
Hello Remko! How are you? I'm fine! I'm very glad to get letter from you. It is very pleasant for me that you turn up your attention to my profile on a dating site. I guess it's very excited to talk with someone from another country. It would be very interesting learn much more about you, about lifestyle in your country. Of course I know a lot about your country, but it's more interesting learn something from citizen of this country. Because all that I know come from news, movies and TV. So you can tell me a lot of interesting I guess. I don't think that you know many things about my country. So I can tell you something. You can feel free to ask me about anything. Ok, I should tell you some more personal details about me. As you know, my name is Anny or full name Anna. I live in Russia, city Moscow. I do not live in USA. I could not finish registration when specified a residence Russia. I shall understand, if not want to write to me more. But I hope, that it not so, I shall continue to tell to you about myself. Ie? My age 25 years. I was born January 3, 1984. I Carpicon on the zodiac. My height is 171 cm (5'7") and weight 65 kg (143 lbs). My eyes is blue, hair is blond. I never been married and don't have kids. I have degree in restaurant and hotel management. So work like manager in restaurant. I don't smoke, but it's not problem for me if people smoke around me. Of course I like true lady don't drink much. I prefer wine or beer. And please don't think all Russians drink vodka. :) I'm active person, so in free time from my work (unfortunately I don't have it much). I like play tennis, visit gym and swimming. Else I like mountain ski. I like go out with friends to movie or night club. Unfortunately most of my friends too busy like me, so we can meet each other not very often. I have few questions for you. What do you do for living? Do you have hobby? What do you do in your free time? I also sent my photos, hope you will like it. I would be very glad if you could send me the your photos! Ok? Sorry for my English. I very well talk in English but not as I write it. I guess must stop writing my letter now, because if I will write you everything about me, then will not have anything to tell you tomorrow! :) I shall wait for you answer with big impatience! Bye! Anny!
Letter 2
Hello Remko! How are you? I'm fine! Thank you for your reply! Me to not irritate, that you to be more senior than me. I to search for the mature man, which would be to wise and scientific life. I like the men which is more senior than me and can learn me to something in this short life. I to want to connect destiny with the man of such age as you. But me has very much afflicted, that you do not want to have children more. I understand, this your right. Well, not about it. I guess that you interested why I decided write you and do not looking for man in Russia. Let I shall answer you. I have friend, she name is Marina we studied in school and university together. After she meet nice man from Germany via Internet they corresponded not a long time and decide to meet each other. He invite Marina visit him. After that Marina went to Germany few times and they come to Russia together too. So they married now and have child. They are very happy. I know her husband and he very good man. His name is Mark. So I decided try my luck too and find someone from other country via Internet. If I cannot find happiness here, then may be I can find it in your country. I want ask you, have you been out of your country? I been out of my country few times. Few years ago me and my friends had trip to France and been in Paris for one week. I like France and Paris, there a lot of beautiful paces for visit museums and others. I never told you that I like flowers very much. I have a lot of flowers at my home, so it looks like garden. I dream one day have real garden around my home, and grow up roses and other flowers there. I like care about different flowers and plants. Do you have flowers in your home? What do you know about my country? I know that many people from your think that Russia is very very cold country, but if you will look on map, then you will understand that this is not true. Russia is very big country and we can have very different temperature on South and North part of Russia. Else people think that we drink only vodka and do not know other drinks like whisky and others. I guess that every country have people who drink a lot, Russia have it too. I'm very curios how people in you country study in school and others. For example in Russia, children go to school then they 7 years old, and can study there 8 or 10 years depend from they choice. If they been at school then they able go to college to get profession like mechanic, electric, veterinary, nurse or others, after they can get job or study something else in university. If people study in school 10 years then they go after school in university and study there else 5 years and get degree in economics, medicine and others. I know that we can different style of education, so write me more in your next letter! Ok? On it I shall finish the letter and I shall wait for your answer with the big impatience! Have a nice day! Anny!
Letter 3
Hello Remko! How are you today? I'm fine, but unfortunately have a lot of work. :( Usually I work 6 days per week. My work day starts on 8:00 AM and finished at 6:00 PM, else I have one hour lunch break. It's so interesting speak with you, I never think that speak with someone from other country is so excited. I think that never asked you about your last relationships and why you decide find someone in Internet. I wrote you in my last letter I explained you why decided write you, but never told you about my last relationships. I don't think that it's very interesting story but I guess you must know. In my life I had two serious relationship and they wasn't success. The first guy study in university with me and been older then me on 1 years. We be been together 3 years and I love him, thought that we will have future together, but as soon as he get degree, he found good job in other city. I thought that we will go there together, but he told me that want start new life in new city. And that in his life no place for me. I've been very hurt and wasn't able understand why he made such choice. For him job was more important then me. And I understood that found wrong guy. Some later I meet other guy we was nice couple, but after we understood that our character is too different and we don't have future together, so we decided stop our relationship. So I still alone, but hope next relationship will be better. I have serious plans, I want create family and have kids. Most of my friends have family already. All that I want it's to be happy and make happy guy who will be my life partner. I also sent you a photos from my childhood. On last photo I at home.

Essex County, New Jersey, Guardianships and Conservatorships Lawyer
Guardianship and conservatorship, concepts used to protect the very young and the very old, are sometimes confusing. Both are matters of interest to millions of Americans who are searching for a way to be responsible and loving, but they require the help of the law.
Extending Care to Loved Ones With Special Needs
Guardianship involves much greater control of the protected individual's situation. Protected individuals must be unable to care of themselves, and this must be certified by physicians. Some guardians make medical and personal decisions for the individual. Other guardians only make financial decisions. Very often, one person keeps guard over both aspects of the protected person's life.
Conservatorship is the simpler of the two. All it does is manage finances directed at the individual, who may not be mentally incapacitated but needs more powerful protection than a simple power of attorney provides. Conservatorship does not get into the area of decision-making regarding medical or personal issues.
Knowledgeable Attorney Serving Clients in Essex, Union and Morris Counties
A common error is using the family attorney to arrange guardianships and conservatorships. The process can be complex, difficult and emotionally taxing. It is better to hire a lawyer who is skilled in this particular area, like Joanne M. Sarubbi, Esq. My firm will work with you to obtain the doctors' certifications and to present your case to a judge.
I can help you establish a special needs trust to protect and provide for the child or other loved one who requires medical care so that they continue to receive benefits.
Need more information? E-mail Essex County, New Jersey, guardianships and conservatorships attorney Joanne M. Sarubbi and describe your problem, or call her office at 973-671-1430.

Making a Jewellery Organiser
Your personal treasure chest
A treasure-chest style jewellery case can be created to hold your favorite costume items. Such a personalised jewellery case will protect your personal/sentimental items and increase your pleasure in storing them.
1. Find an old case
The first step is to locate a suitable box, tin or case. We found an old poker case in a second hand store. This cost us around $5. The case was aluminium with a key lock and appeared ideal for the purpose of storing personal valuables such as jewellery.
In the photograph you can see the case contained some cards and poker chips, which we removed and set aside. (Covering a suitable cardboard box for the gaming items could be another fun project if we chose.)
2. Preparing the case
The original case contained a compartmentalized lining. We considered this for a while and concluded that it would be best removed with the poker set. We levered this insert out gently, finding it came out in one piece and did not damage the inside of the case.
The velvet lining inside the lid was not attached to the insert and remained in the case. Some side linings became loosened, but were not otherwise damaged. These could be glued back in as required.
3. Cleaning the case
The next step was to clear the case with a metal cleaning product such as brasso and a cloth.
The cloth shown in the picture is a kitchen wipe, however an old rag may do as well and prove sturdier for rubbing the surface of the case.
- Put about a teaspoon of brasso on the surface of the case and spread it around evenly using the cloth.
- The brasso can be left on the case briefly (a few minutes), and then must be removed by rubbing with the cloth.
- Polish until the case shines.
4. Creating compartments
If your jewellery is left loose in the case it will fall all over the place. Necklaces may also tangle - and no one likes tangled necklaces.
- Take an egg carton and cut the egg compartments to fit into the case.
- To fit this case, we separated the egg spacers from the lid and trimmed the edges; cut the two end egg spacers off and inserted the main section into the case.
- A second egg carton was cut using the same method and the additional egg spacers were placed in the case next to the first row.
- The two lids were trimmed to size and placed in the case at 90 degrees to the egg spacers.
- The end of one lid was used to create a smaller compartment.
- This created a variety of compartments which would accommodate different pieces of jewellery.
- Glue the pieces of egg carton firmly in place with craft glue.
- If you can not obtain an egg carton similar to the one in the picture, use small boxes such as individual cereal boxes or cut larger boxes down to fit.
- I have seen the suggestion that the insert from a chocolate box can be used to create compartments.
- I have also heard that a plastic ice cube tray can be used to create compartments.
- Plastic organisers can also be purchased from hardware stores, costing between $2 and $4.
5. Lining the case
Line the case with a suitable material. Suitable materials include: silk, felt, velveteen or shiny foil wrapping paper.
Tuck the lining under the inserts and around the edges.
Use your fingers and hand to make sure lining material extends into the depressions in the compartments.
When you are satisfied with the result, trim lining to size and attach securely using glue.
Finishing touches
Your completed case is now ready to store jewellery! A card or sheet of firm clear plastic cut to fit the inside of the case exactly and laid over the jewellery will secure individual pieces so they do not move when the case is carried on it's side or tipped upside down.
The outside of this case has not been decorated because we like the shiny effect of the aluminium. However, if you wish you can purchase craft felt shapes or diamantes and glue to the lid.
The following YouTube video describes a method for making a case that holds rings upright.

Once upon a time there was an idiotic traindriver…wait, that's not right. Once upon a time there was a VERY TIRED traindriver who had started their day at a very specific time of day. There. That's a better start. Pull up a cushion and see what comes next.
The very specific time of day was half past fucking three. This is fairly unique in terms of time in that it occurs only once a day. Most times have a corresponding time 12 hours later. Not poor half past three though. It happens only once each afternoon but due to some fairly rigid rules it gets paired with the similarly-named-yet-oh-so-different half past fucking three. It's a thing. Deal with it.
Moving on: The ordinarily reasonably intelligent traindriver duly cancelled the phone alarm, pulled on something resembling uniform, stumbled off to work and (what with living about ten minutes away) was there for shortly after four. There our sleepy and anonymous* hero set about the business of the day. Despite the stupid time of starting the traindriver was as enthusiastic as is possible at that time because the following day was their rest day.
Oh rest days. So delicious. So welcome. So bloody fatal to this story. For like any intelligent person, our in no way stupid at all hero liked a bit of a lie-in. Just one day when the relentless blaring of the phone alarm would not happen. Because quite frankly it had been set to half past fucking three for every day this week and a certain person was getting a bit fed up with it.
But it does not do to sleep too late on a rest day. Because if you snooze til ten then you are all wide awake at midnight and bear in mind that the next again day is one of the half past fucking three ones. So it seemed a good and sensible idea to reset the daily alarm to a later time. About half past eight should do it. Perfect.
The traindriver then bumbled off to pick their favourite train and started driving it up and down. Possibly whistling a happy tune as they did so. And never spotting the problem. Which an intelligent reader will have done by now. I am in no way giving you a pointed look at this point.
As the traindriver came belting into a major station where – by appalling coincidence – most of the Very Important managers are based a noise was heard. It was an awful, jangling, relentlessly cheery sound. And it was ringing round the cab at immense volume. It was, of course, the daily phone alarm which – it now being half past eight – was ringing out at full pelt and causing the traindriver to nearly die of fear at the unexpected noise in an empty cab. And then reanimate and die of panic because we're not actually allowed phonecalls while driving and there's probably all these managers on the train and OH GOD this is terrible!
The poor, traumatised traindriver could do nothing. The phone was in a pocket somewhere within the obligatory backpack of gubbins and unreachable. Besides which, the train still belting into the station and the approaching end of the platform became something of a more pressing concern. So the train jingled it's cheery way all the way into the HUGE station and came to a stop. The doors opened and a vast number of passengers leapt off as the contents of the bag of gubbins were hastily hurled around the cab during the frantic search for the phone.
Once silence was restored to the cab and the traindriver's heart had come down to something like a normal rate the train continued on. Miraculously, none of the Very Important managers seemed to have been on the train because nothing was ever said about the apparent sound of a phonecall being routed directly to the cab of an underground train. And the poor traindriver spent much of the rest of the day trying to work out how the hell that could have happened. Because they'd got up at half past fucking three and were a bit muzzy still and WHO COULD HAVE PREDICTED that if you set an alarm at 4am for 8:30am then it would ring out that SELF SAME DAY?
And after that the phone alarm was no longer set to ring out on every day of the week but was carefully set for very specific days. Because while it might be more troublesome to have to set individual alarms every day it is far, far better than nearly dying of fear when your cab starts singing.

Trusted musician and artist reviews for Bare Knuckle - Mississippi Queen Humbucker-Size P90
Based on 1 Review
My gosh.
I've fitted a pair of MQs on my homemade guitar (alder+maple), and it's been love at first play-on-a-decent-amp. The neck pickup, as you should expect, is simply PERFECT. I now undestand the guy who said it was like an overwound strat: all the best from that wonderful wooden tone we know, but giving it the thickness it so often wants. The neck pickup will have you bluesing away to the best tone you'll have ever heard. The bridge pickup has more bite on it than a bengal tiger. It just snarls and is barely on its leash, thanks to those punchy upper-middy tones that will make anything you were already doing on a single coil bridge sound BETTER. I can't post any clips at the moment but of you want to get an idea, listen to Muse's "Darkshines" at 3:15 for the neck sound, and "Micro Cuts" at 3:05 for the deliciously jangly middle sound. What shines out the most instantly is their exceptional quality. The definition is incredibly clear, and you must know that Tim from Bare Knuckle Pickups will answer any of your queries (whick pickup would be best for this sound?), magically perform any of your customizing requests (number of strings, finish, whatever!), and guarantee your pickups for life.
Just know that they are still clearly single-coils, and from time to time I do long for a little bit of fatter humbucker action, but they are just fantastic at what they do, and it's giving me a reason to order a pair of their humbuckers someday!
killer review!
A true P90 single coil mounted onto a humbucker chassis. Our first humbucker-size P90 and the benchmark for all HSP90 tone.
The Mississippi Queen humbucker-size P90 was the first HSP90 made by Bare Knuckle back in 2005 and quickly rose through the ranks being used by players as varied as Adrian Legg and Matt Bellamy. Fitting into any standard humbucker cavity, the Mississippi Queen offers humbucker players a direct replacement to experience true P90 tone without hacking their guitars about.
The wide and squat coil of a P90 creates a fatter tone compared to a Strat or Tele coil while the twin magnet design gives all the power of a hot humbucker. Wound with 42AWG plain enamel wire, the bridge Mississippi Queen is powered by Alnico V magnets and the neck, Alnico IV magnets. While the bottom-end is solid and the highs really sing, it's the mid range where it's really at; all the muscle of a humbucker but a much wider frequency response allowing the mids to really breath.
Into a clean amp the tone is fat and earthy, crank up the gain and the Mississippi Queen can absolutely scream. Add plenty of head room for superb dynamic control and a calibrated neck for complete balance and you get a set of HSP90s that can cover just about anything.

Date – October 27, 2013
Location – Map 22 Devil's Glen and Map 23 Pretty River
Distance – 16.9 km
Total Trail Distance – 508.8 (385.2 to go)
Start – 47.2 Pretty River Access Trail, Blue Mountains Section
End – 30.3 Hwy 124
Direction – South
Weather – Cool and overcast, but bright
This is Day Two of our fall weekend. Elza and Robyn decide it's a good day for reading and drinking coffee, and Floyd's knees have betrayed him, so the group is smaller today. We are also going a shorter distance because we have three or more hours to drive after we're done.
In an unusual move we've switched directions, choosing to hike south. Harold and Janette have parked their car partway through today's distance: they need to get back to Toronto to visit Jenny and in order for Harold to catch a plane to Montreal.
We come to the newly approved Walker Industries Duntroon Quarry expansion site, marked No Trespassing! It was hotly contested, but one day, in the far distant future, this land will be restored as a natural area.
