(TX_PVLS) Percentage of ART patients with a suppressed viral load (VL) result (<1000 copies/ml) documented in the medical or laboratory records/laboratory information systems (LIS) within the past 12 months
Export Indicator
Number of ART patients with suppressed VL results (<1,000 copies/ml) documented in the medical or laboratory records/LIS within the past 12 months
Number of ART patients with a VL result documented in the medical or laboratory records/LIS within the past 12 months.
How to calculate annual total:
This indicator should be collected from clinical sources (e.g., electronic or paper patient records), where possible, to ensure de-duplicated patient counting and receipt of results to inform patient care. Ideally, data for this indicator should be collected from an electronic medical records system (EMR) to minimize data collection errors and ensure that results are informing patient care. If data collection from an EMR is not possible, indicator data may be collected from paper-based registers or reports that reflect the VL results. If standard patient registers do not contain all the required information, individual patient records should be reviewed.
If a clinical source does not exist or does not contain the desired information, data may be extracted from an electronic laboratory information system (LIS). VL results from an LIS must be linked to back to the individual patients and their record at sites.
NOTE: If patient-linked VL results from LIS is used for reporting, it is incumbent that the implementing partner ensure this information is transcribed into the patient record for timely VL results utilization/patient management.
The data source used for reporting on this indicator should be specified and data reported should be de-duplicated and used to inform patient care at sites. If the LIS is used, please explain why clinical sources could not be used to report on this indicator in the narrative (see guiding narrative question section below).
VL results should be reported for patients who have been on ART for at least 3 months (or according to national guidelines). It is important to ensure that the data sources used to collect and aggregate data are updated to be able to report VL results data for patients who have been on ART for at least 3 months.
The indicator reporting frequency is now quarterly. The reporting period still covers a 12-month period and may include data from the previous fiscal year (see visual below). For example, when reporting data in FY19 Q1, country teams will be required to report data for FY18 Q2+ FY18 Q3+FY18 Q4+ FY19 Q1.
Both only VL tests with recorded results and VL results that are linked back to patients should be included in the numerator and denominator of this indicator.
This indicator should be reported for all PEPFAR-supported treatment sites (i.e., from all reporting TX_CURR). VL monitoring result utilization should be promoted for individual patient, site, and program use. If a PEPFAR-supported treatment site (i.e., a site that has reported TX_CURR) has not collected any samples for VL testing, "0" should be entered for both the numerator and denominator.
Where more than one result is available for the reporting period, the most recent result should be reported. Programs should describe the method(s) of data collection and the results de-duplication methodology utilized in their narratives.

Provision of key staff or commodities for PLHIV on ART who receive VL monitoring includes: the provision of key staff and/or commodities can include ongoing procurement of critical commodities, such as ARVs, or funding for salaries of HCW who deliver VL monitoring services. Staff who are responsible for the completeness and quality of routine patient records (paper or electronic) can be counted here; however, staff who exclusively fulfill MOH and donor reporting requirements cannot be counted.
Ongoing support for PLHIV receiving ART VL monitoring improvement includes: clinical mentoring and supportive supervision of staff at HIV sites providing ART and VL monitoring services, support for quality improvement activities, patient tracking, enhanced adherence counseling system support, routine support of VL related M&E and reporting, VL related commodities consumption forecasting and supply management

Made In Space, Inc. has been making large strides recently in proving its space-capable technologies and, in doing so, has earned a Guinness Book World Record for the "World's Longest 3D Printed non-assembled Piece."
"We believe that this record is indicative of the transformational work we're doing in space today," said Andrew Rush, President & CEO. "Guinness is the most recognized, ultimate global authority in record breaking, and our team couldn't be prouder to receive this recognition for their incredible work. They deserve it."
To obtain Guinness World Record certification, a record must be: measurable, breakable, capable of standardization, verifiable, based on one superlative and measured in one unit of measurement, and achieves best-in-the-world standing.
After successfully operating its Extended Structure Additive Manufacturing Machine (ESAMM) technology in a space-like environment this past summer, MIS set out to further demonstrate its space-ready technology by additively manufacturing a beam stretching the length of their Moffett Field facility located at NASA's Ames Research Center. The beam's final measurement was recorded at 37.7 meters (123 ft, 8.25 inches) long. It now hangs from the ceiling at MIS's facility.
ESAMM is the internal 3D printer of one of MIS' larger systems, Archinaut, which employs robotic arms to assemble 3D printed parts and pre-fabricated components into larger, more complex structures. Because this technology manufactures in space, it enables the optimization of structures and spacecraft for the space environment instead of the harsh launch environment. Using the Archinaut technology, the company is now capable of manufacturing objects of complex geometry and indefinite size in space.

after some basic freeride ski, i'm going to build my first gs ski and I would like to use the titanal,
after some studies and readings in the forum, I thought of building a ski with 2 layers of titanium and a 1 cm woodcore (ash and poplar)
my project is to build a ski with this layers:
base, edges and vds tape on edges
triax fiberglass 750 g/m2
0,4 mm titanal layer (on the whole layer)
0,4 mm titanal layer (on the whole layer)
triax fiberglass 750 g/m2
but I have some doubts:
it's better that the titanal lies between the fiber and the woodcore, or between the fiber and the outer layers?
and i read also that someone use a layer of vds on both side of the titanal to improve bonding, it is necessary?
usually I use the 750 g/m2 fiberglass, it is good also in this case or it is better a lighter one?
0.4mm titanal is too thin with this configuration?
I usually press with vacuum press at 20 degrees for 12/14 hours and then I raise the temperature to 60 degrees for 3/4 hours, with the titanal I can continue to heat up so much or is it better to keep the temperatures lower?
does anyone have any advice / experience?
thanks in advance

Re: titanal layup help
I made a GS pair. I did a write up on it. My research said the titanal should go against the core. I put VDS on both sides of the titanal, but when I did sample layups with and without VDS both bonded fine. But I went with VDS for insurance and provide a little bit of damping.

Lords of Dough Town
Gone are the days of eating tubes of cookie dough from the supermarket or licking the bowl clean when your Nanna bakes. Dough Lord, Fortitude Valley's new hole-in-the-wall eatery offers the same nostalgic rush.
Nestled between Giardinetto and Ltd Espresso of Brunswick Street, DoughLord is the new dessert joint dedicated entirely to cookie dough. Boasting a pastel candy-coated store design, the menu is reminiscent of an ice creamery complete with decadent flavours like red velvet, oreo and peanut butter brownie.
Sweet tooths can expect delectable cookies with gooey centres baked in just under two minutes and served straight out of the oven, as well as the star of the show, freshly churned cookie dough. The mix is egg-free, so when you next stumble inside on a night out, there's little risk of salmonella (just a sugar-fuelled hangover.) Vegans can rejoice, too, with new vegan flavours being introduced and reinvented all the time.
Currently, cookies or dough can be served with soft ice cream. But with a fresh menu change on the horizon, options will be available soon for premium mix-ins such as fruit loops and hazelnut praline dust. The whole thing can then be topped off with a drizzle of your favourite sauce.
Did I mention they're also available on UberEats?
Follow the lords on Instagram and Facebook to inspire your cravings

Your body's acidity or alkalinity may be a symptom of an underlying illness. You can find out if your body is acidic or alkaline by measuring its pH. The pH scale ranges from 0, which is very acidic, to 14, which is very basic. Pure water has a pH of 7, which is completely neutral. A healthy pH is neutral or slightly alkaline at approximately 7.0 to 7.2. Testing the pH of your urine will reveal the presence of any unusual acidity or alkalinity, which may indicate that your kidneys are working hard to neutralize your blood.
Step 1
Wait until you have urinated once or twice before capturing your urine for testing. Morning urine typically contains more particulates, as it has been collecting in your bladder for a longer period of time.
Step 2
Capture the middle of your urine flow in your plastic cup for testing. Both the beginning and end of a urine stream will contain different levels of particulates, so capturing the middle of your flow is important in collecting an accurate sample.
Step 3
Tear off a one inch strip from your roll of litmus paper. Submerge one end of the litmus paper in the urine, and hold it for approximately five seconds.
Step 4
Remove the litmus paper from your urine and compare its color to the chart printed on the roll of litmus paper. The color may vary between yellow and dark blue, indicating a pH between 4.5 and 9.0. Ideally, the litmus paper will turn bluish green, which indicates a pH around 7.0 to 7.2.
Step 5
Test two more times during the day, ideally once in the morning, once in the afternoon and once in the evening. Average your results for the most accurate pH reading, as the body's pH fluctuates throughout the day.
Things You'll Need
Plastic cup
Litmus paper
According to the U.S. National Library of Medicine, "Acidic urine is associated with xanthine, cystine, uric acid and calcium oxalate stones. Alkaline urine is associated with calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate and magnesium phosphate stones."
Only a doctor can properly analyze your urinary pH to make a proper diagnosis. Do not make dietary alterations or medical determinations based on your urinary pH without input from a physician.

In the late 1970s, Suzanne lived in Costa Rica for several years, where she worked for the National Museum and the Associated Colleges of the Midwest Tropical Field Research program. Her interest in Native peoples of the Americas and in U.S.-Latin American relations remains strong.
Suzanne grew up in both the United States (mostly Washington, D.C.) and abroad (the former Yugoslavia, India and the UK), and has been involved in public service throughout her adult life. Her father was a print and broadcast journalist who saw journalism as a pillar of a democratic society, and her mother was an avid volunteer wherever the family lived. A 1971 graduate of Harvard-Radcliffe, Suzanne also completed her master's and doctoral work in anthropology at Brown University and UC Berkeley.
Suzanne's late husband, Jim Kennedy, was a bereavement counselor with Peninsula Pathways, following a career as a documentary filmmaker and journalist. Her daughter graduated from Smith College in 2005 and lives in London, where she produces videos and web content in the Digital Department of the Philharmonia Orchestra. Suzanne also has three stepchildren who live and work in Los Angeles, Idyllwild (CA) and Ho Chi Minh City (Vietnam), and four grandchildren.
Since October 2011, Suzanne has been pursuing an "encore career" as academic director at Puente de la Costa Sur in Pescadero, where she had volunteered for almost three years. In 2012, she became a consulting scholar at the University of Pennsylvania's Cultural Heritage Center as part of a multi-year community-driven interdisciplinary project in Quintana Roo, Mexico, that focuses on the 19th-century Caste War of Yucatan.
She is a news junkie and loves international and domestic travel, film, books, animals, nature, cycling, hiking, museums, theater, and music.

Lyn grew up in Salinas, California and, following in the footsteps of John Steinbeck, attended Stanford. (Unlike Mr. Steinbeck, she managed to earn her BA in English, while he only went on to earn a Pulitzer and Nobel Prize.) Lyn worked locally on national political campaigns and in several women's health organizations and then returned to school at Santa Clara University (SCU) where she earned a master's in Marriage, Family and Child Counseling. She obtained her MFCC license and worked for 10 years at Counseling Services and Programs at SCU. After a seven-year work hiatus (during which her two daughters were born) Lyn joined the Haas staff in 1996 as part-time communications assistant, primarily working on the production of annual and then biennial reports. She moved on to working as fellowship assistant for the John Gardner Public Service Fellowship and then editorial associate in External Relations. In 2013, Lyn became program associate for Community-Engaged Scholarship, now Community Engaged Learning and Research. She officially retired from the Haas Center in 2014, but has been unable to stay away. As senior advisor for communication and history (having had first-hand experience with Haas history for 18 years), she works on special projects.
Lyn's husband is also retired after working as Director of Counseling Services at Notre Dame de Namur University in Belmont for 30 years. Her older daughter graduated from Tufts University with an international relations major and a music minor, and is working at Education Pioneers in Oakland. Her younger daughter got her BA in Theatre and Speech at Wagner College in New York, lives in Brooklyn, and auditions every chance she gets. Both girls have been involved in performing vocal music and musical theater since they were little; consequently, Lyn has spent a lot of time backstage and "in the house." Other interests include politics, poetry, movies, food, and travel—not necessarily in that order. Lyn's public service experience ranges from leading Girl Scout troops to precinct walking and lots of things in-between. She considers herself fortunate for many reasons, not the least of which is working at the Haas Center, "the hub of Cardinal Service."

The game is fun for being so simple and I enjoyed it and runs smoothly at 60 fps. I will say though that there is an odd kinda bug where every time the rope cuts the car the game and sound will freeze for about a second before starting again usually going down to about 10 fps. The main issue with it is it sometimes causes the game to not register the jump input and kinda throws off the rhythm, not sure if this is just me. Other than that the game is very enjoyable even though I lacked enough skill to get past 60 as the bottle =]

I have the same exact problem. That tiny bit of lag makes it very difficult to get much higher than 80.

Often when you are not paying with a payment card in a shop or office, you are not thinking about exactly what card you own and which type of card would be more beneficial for you. Often people do not even think about it when they go to the bank and ask the bank what type of payment card they want – credit or debit card. Why? This is probably because they simply do not distinguish credit cards from debit cards and therefore do not know how one type of card differs from the other type of card and which in the end is better. So, in order to prevent you from making a mistake and choosing the payment card that is not right for you, I'll tell you about the key differences between a credit card and a debit card, and the benefits of each card.
Credit and debit card differences
Although credit and debit cards are literally the same in appearance , as they both contain the card number and expiration date, your name, bank name and other important attributes, their use and usage characteristics are very different. If you can think of debit cards as your digital checkbook, because it is directly linked to your bank account (there may be savings accounts or other specific account debit cards) and you can only spend as much money as you have in your bank account, and the amount you spend will be automatically deducted from your bank account, then credit cards are cards that are not directly and simply linked to your bank account, so you can spend more money with them than is actually in your bank account. You can use a credit card just like a debit card – make everyday purchases, make payments, but there is one important extra to the credit card – you can use your credit card to over-budget your bank account. This means, for example, if you buy something with a credit card for $ 100 but only have $ 70 in your bank account, then the $ 30 that was not in your bank account will automatically be borrowed from your bank, creating a kind of quick credit – ovedraft. However, unlike real loans, overdrafts are usually not charged monthly, and if you pay your bank the amount of the overdraft each month after receiving your paycheck, then you only have to pay the cost of that activity when you borrow the overdraft, which in most cases is not a large sum.
But which card is better then?
After this explanation of the difference between a debit card and a credit card, it may seem like a credit card is much better than a debit card and no doubt I need to make a credit card next time, that's not all. While a credit card gives you this opportunity to borrow instant credit at no high interest or extra charge, which is great if you use it a few times, but at the same time, the credit card also allows you to say it over your own means and if you're not careful with your credit card, you can quickly become overwhelmed with large debts that can then be very difficult to repay, and since your debit card doesn't have the ability to spend money that isn't in your bank account, you can't accidentally spend too much on credit which you will find difficult to repay. Another good thing about credit cards is that credit card users are often given the opportunity to earn different bonuses for each of their credit card payments, but nowadays most debit cards come with a variety of bonus programs that allow you to either accumulate bonuses or earn additional discounts when purchasing these cards. Therefore, I would say that in the struggle – credit card debit card – the debit card wins in my eyes for one important reason – it is safer for you and your finances. However, that does not mean that a credit card may not be the best option for others, so I would say that you have to consider the pros and cons of each card now that you know them and decide which card is best for you.

Ant and Dec really are just sound decent lads aren't they? Having hit the top spot in the iTunes chart yesterday after Saturday's one off revival of their PJ and Duncan days, the two ever present TV presenters have announced that they're giving all the money they get off the recent success of 'Let's Get Ready To Rhumble' will go straight to Childline.
The duo are apparently 'bewildered' at the reaction from people to their performance of the admittedly cheeserific '90s track, with Ant telling Chris Evans on BBC Radio yesterday that it was never planned and just seemed like something fun to do seeing as The Big Reunion is such a hit at the moment, and that until now it's something they tried to pretend never happened. 'I've been trying to push it under the carpet! People are still buying the track, so we've just decided that any money we make out of it will be put towards Childline, as we're patrons of that.'
But after the success and reaction from last weekends show, the boys are considering hitting us with another PJ & Duncan performance this weekend saying 'We've got another show on Saturday and we might have to address it. When we recorded it, we never really thought much about it, it got to number nine. That's the one song everybody still to this day is on about, it kinda changed everything for us. I never thought we'd be performing it 19 years later on a Saturday night TV show.'
Seeing as they have thirteen other chart songs to choose from (and three albums, which we never knew existed), we're going to be surprised either way. As long as we get more terrible side-shuffling dancing we'll be happy.

There are no financial resources available to a sprint. If the sprint is in the care of a structure that may request travel or childcare funding support then the sponsoring structure may choose to go through the process to request financial support.
Fundraising: Everyone involved in Philadelphia Yearly meeting is asked to be part of our culture of giving. Friends involved in Sprints are asked to be cheerleaders and encourage others to make contributions generously as meetings and as individuals. However, actual fundraising solicitations need to be coordinated with the appropriate staff. No structure may fundraise on behalf of the yearly meeting or for any structure, substructure, program or particular cause in the yearly meeting without explicit permission from the Administrative Council.
Outbound Communication
News: Sprints may publish stories through all standard PYM communications channels. The channels and the process for submitting content to them are kept current in the Electronic Appendix.
PYM Calendar: Any scheduled Sprint events may, and should be, published on the calendar on the PYM website. It is the responsibility of the Thread to submit the information to be posted. Submission practices are kept current in the Electronic Appendix.
Website: Sprints may be provided space on the PYM website. The details are to be worked out with communications staff, the Sprint, and the Quaker Life Council.
Sprints may request a private section of the PYM website (called a "multisite"), accessible only to members of the group. The request is made to the supervising structure and the communications staff. If provided, this multisite can be the container for all logistical information that the group will need to function well. Members may add events to the group's internal calendar, upload documents, see an archive of Google Group messages, find quick links to recommended external services for internal collaboration (video chat, doodle polls, etc.), and read how-to guides on best practices and rules for use of communications technology.
Social Media: Sprints may set up and use their own social media accounts, but must follow the rules laid out under Guidelines for Appropriate Use of Social Media, which is available in the Electronic Appendix.
Print Materials: Sprints may develop print publications such as flyers for sharing publicly. Print materials need to conform to the PYM visual identity guide and style guide and be reviewed and approved by communications staff. Print communications that do not follow the style guide of PYM may not be distributed. Sprints may work with staff to professionally design brochures, flyers, and publications. Extraordinary requests might require additional budget approval. Sprints need to keep in mind that there is not a Sprint budget for design, copying, printing or mailing and financial support. Those items are under the authority of the Quaker Life Council. Guidelines and procedures for print items will be available in the Electronic Appendix.
Contact Information: Sprints are not given direct access to contact information of Friends in the yearly meeting. All direct communications to broad PYM audiences are managed through the PYM office and its channels.
Internal Communication
Every Sprint that requests it will have access to a private section of the PYM website (called a "multisite"), accessible only to members of the group. This multisite will be the container for all logistical information that the group will need to function well. Members will be able to add events to the group's internal calendar, upload documents, see an archive of Google Group messages, find quick links to recommended external services for internal collaboration (video chat, doodle polls, etc), and read howto guides on best practices and rules for use of communications technology.
As requested, PYM will create a private Google Group for each Sprint, and will add the initial set of members. Following that, selected members of the Sprint will be added as group managers, and will be responsible for ongoing administrative tasks like approving new requests to join the group. PYM Staff will retain ownership of the Google Group to ensure long-term stability in case of group turnover.
Communication Restrictions
Sprints don't have the authority to communicate outside of standard PYM communications channels without approval from the Quaker Life Council (which will collaborate with staff).
Sprints may not create independent websites. They may not sign up for any third-party apps or group collaboration tools beyond those recommended in the resources section of their private multisite, and must follow PYM guidelines when using Social Media.
Sensitive or personal identification information may not be stored in the cloud without approval of the Communications Staff.
All communications that are published in any way through PYM:
- May be reviewed and edited by the PYM Communications staff. See the editing process in the Electronic Appendix online for more information.
- Must conform to the PYM style guide for graphics and copy.
Logistics Support
The following logistical supports may be requested with prior approval from a council or the substructure which has cared for the sprint within the parameters of the resources available to that substructure. Sprints need to request confirmation of the use of these provisional logistics resources from the appropriate staff person prior to expecting their availability:
- meeting space for events at Friends Center or Arch Street
- development of simple online registration forms
- flyer design
- receiving and distributing money
- editing
- arrangement of and payment for childcare
- printing and copying
Details and processes for accessing the support may be found in the Electronic Appendix on the PYM website.
The following are not available to support sprints:
- reimbursing expenses
- setting up or managing preparation or follow-up for meetings of sprint members
- developing agendas
- communicating with members of the sprint
- recording minutes or writing news or other documents
- Programmatic support, such as designing programs, staffing programs, developing or finding content or speakers
Governance Access
Sprints do not have access to the governance structure or leadership of the yearly meeting. Their sponsoring structure may have access and if so, the sponsoring structure may choose to go through its process for access to governance agendas on behalf of the Sprint.
Quaker/PYM identity
Sprints may not represent themselves externally as representatives of PYM or Quakerism, as they are an internal means of getting our work done.

Twana has gone above and beyond to dumb things down for the average prepper . But this scenario stated in this thread is as she said 2 days into the black-out ? Are we still going to drink the kool-laid and listen to the conventional lying media from the battery powered radios or is the black out spoken of just that a BLACK OUT ? No new , no communication ?
If so by day 2 or 3 when the choppers roar and the humvees and armored personell carriers are moving in to divide the country into sectors we are in a hole and fighting our way out !
Twana has been a well of information and some say I make myself a target by being so out spoken and deliberate ! ? God's will and God's Grace be with me ? But I will not huddle in a corner and PRAY !
The info we get from this site should open everyones eyes general bugout info is fine for getting to the / our safe zone (UNDISCLOSSED)
I am of the strong conviction that the infiltrators have a trained team and also have a group of men that are robots that will take orders and set up bases just like the one dipicted in this scenario .
Under what is left of out Constitution we have the right to form and train a civialian militia ! Time has passed for us to wait time is at had to have a militia of a minium of 1000 healthy well trained and disiplined gurillia FIGHTERS ! For civilian protection !from un friendlies that want to take away out God given rights that many men have died for and will die for again to hold the bond of this Nation together !
Time is short the UN is moving in and the special SWAT teams are equipted with the equiptment we need so we need to have the ability to take it of they are not here to protect our rights ! Sad but fact passive action os past ! ask yourself can you drop the hammer on a UN troop standing on your pourch and then drag the body to the street and leave it lay ? Do you have the belly for the blood that is going to be spilled if not WE MUST HAVE A READY REACTION FORCE THAT IS TO BE RECKONED WITH AND ABLE TO ACT AS AN ANTI TERRORIST GROUP TO PROTECT OUR HOMES !
again I said it I stand by what I said and other tha why am I so stupid as to expose my thoughts tell me the more proper way to deal with what we know we face !
A US Marine
No Better Friend !
No Worse Enemy !
US Marines adapt and over come in all scenarios but there must be leadership for any anti terrorist group to function and function with maxium damage and miniun casuality rate ! This landing pary could be the end or if handled properly and if we are prepared it could be our first shipment of supplies with live ordinance Be smart wise up get you head out of the sand !
Thank you so much!!!! I understand what you are saying!! I like your closing. Thank you for your service!
Excuse me. I realize what was posted and I realize the threat. My idea is to gather intelligence on the situation and then formulate a plan. Running around willy nilly in a state of panic is assinine and will get you killed. One man alone cannot take on the world, you need a little help. Other people have got to be informed of the threat. If you go and get yourself killed or injures fighting, you at this point have helped nobody. Somebody has to gather the intelligence to sound the alarm and formulate a plan.
OK Eddie; you are excused ! What are your goals and what intel do you plan to gather ? How do you plan to preserve them logistly are you going to have a map in your pocket and do you understand Lat & Log on a map? When you gather your intel who are you going to give it to ? Is there a reaction tean trained and ready to go where you live ? Do you know what to call specific equiptment and how to show communication bunker and ammo dump ? How large is you reaction tean in your area ? Do you have the skills to be in the camp and get out without detiction ? Just a few minor detail to consider ? Not to mention the fire power of the react team in your ares ? Also the fire power of the infltrators ?
Who are you going to formulate the plan with 24 hours after they are dug in and going house to house ? It sounds like a really good plan if you can connect the dots ?
If you have been following many of the post I am a big time advocaate that no one man should attemt to engauge any combatant if it can be avoided ? I also an a big time advocate that a group of untrained civilians with guns and a Rambo attitude are just as dangerous and the combatants and will most likely kill or injure more people with friendly fire than they do opposition forces . That is the reason for a train militia nit a mob with guns ! have you trained with your local militias in an organized manner so the react team will be efficient because every hour the infltrators are on the ground the more intrenched they become !
First of all you need not be obnoxious and condescending. However, we are on the same page. I'm a not physically healthy enough anymore to go running anywhere, but I will do my part to the best of my ability and I don't quit.
I don't have military training, but I do know how to read latitude and longitude. If you have ever operated a boat on the ocean, you need to know how to get home. A gps is a fantastic tool, but it is not magic and the end user needs to know how to read it, and charts (maps to those that like terra firma). I do not enter the woods anymore without a handheld gps and a compass and a bar of magnesium. I like to make it home.
I've worked in a paramilitary organization.
How do you know the intent of this force that is there? You have to make an observation. Perhaps they are not hostile. Are they wearing foreign uniforms? Are they wearing American uniforms? Are they wearing blue berets? These questions need to be answered. They may not have anything to do with violating everyones 4th ammendment rights, or they may have everything to do with illegal searches and seizures of citizens property. You just can't go off half cocked. You need to know intent.
TM 31-210 Dept. of the Army Technical Manual titled Improvised Munitions Handbook has some nasty little surprises in it for hostile forces. It's a golden oldie.
So you have a plan but are unable to implement it ? So = no plan and the key to this scenario is a 2 day black out and and you think FEMA is worried about rural USA ? The signs are written even in the distorted news we hear daily ! These forces are not hear to assist and you don't need recon intel to figure that out ! Since you are unable to implement your plan ? I am sure your are teaching your skills to those that are able if not you are nothing more than an arm chair warrior and that we have way to many of people with plans bit no action ! SO when do you plan to start a workshop and teach your para military skills to all the willing that are lacking in knowledge ? Or did the para military group you were with that you can't mention teach you telepathy ? Were you with the men who taalk to goats unit and took acid ?
Stop talking and do somethoing that is the whole point that is about to implode PFA all atlk and no action share your knowledge since you admit you no longer jave the ability to do what you ststed you plan was = npo plan :) have a nice day not condesending just stating the facts ! take action don't talk about it eddie :)
Yeah, I talk to goats and drop acid. You are obnoxious and condescending. I am older than you think and my health is not as good as when I was a strong and youthful man. I'll do my part. You have a good day sir. I pray to the Lord that he protects you in the field.
Thanks the TM 31-210 info you posted should be required reading and is a free PDF file on google ! Tons of public info for free :) Thanks for the kind words sir ! I am not so young myself be 55 and 100% disabled but I train everyday to matain healtth and well being it is painful and pays off ! Good luck to you !
Agreed, one team, one fight. This whole thing is stressful. It is much easier to be sent under orders to a foreign land, taking up arms and following orders... At home, we have individuals, although many have served before, most are acclimated back into civilian thinking. We want what we want... sometimes we forget, its about the person on your right or left.
And the TM 31-210, yes, is a good reference... just beware of missing components in any manuals that are "google-able".
No Words sufrrender the flag
First thing I would do is lie down. Stay calm. Crawl away but cover up your chain saw first so it hopefully wouldn't be stolen. Only crawl away if you are in relatively dense brush otherwise you'll be seen.
Why are you crawling away ? There must be a plan of exicution already formulated and if you are in the infltrators premitor ? well face the reality of the situtiation run don't walk and they are military they do things by the numbers ! They are not likely to land with shoot to kill orders ? so formulate with your group inside the premiter and creat as much disruption and havok as possible and gasoline bottles and other make IED's even sexy women infiltrate the core of the base memorize the layout and where the amo dump is and communication post is ! cut their communication #1 then rain hell on them and yes some will die but not in vain a reaction team should already be on the way to over run the base once communication is taken out .
Just for starters this should not take over a day to secure their base if we hit fast and hard ?

This is a guide to installing the nrpe plugin service on OS X. For getting this to work, I am endebted to the following:
If you don't know what nrpe is, you problably don't want it. What nrpe will do for you is allow your nagios server to contact a computer over the network and query it's state, using scripts to check on things such as cpu load, drive space, pretty much anything you can script together. Also, I'm walking through the steps of this process so as to provide a reasonable accounting of what I did, but I've also scripted pretty much all of it, and you can download the whole schmear. There's link to the script at the bottom of this article.
Create a user for the nrpe service to use
The nrpe service, as everything on the mac, will have to run under a user account, and it really shouldn't run under your account, since we wouldn't want it to be able to reach out and hurt your files. There are two ways you can create an account, either via the GUI using System Preferences, or via the command line. I use the latter, but we'll cover the former as well, since I'm not entirely sure of my kung fu creating accounts. I also deviant somewhat from standard unix practice–normally, you'd run nrpe under an account named nagios, but in this case, I'm going to create a general account used to do some housekeeping tasks in addition to just running the nrpe service. Think of this as a maid or butler, with limited power, to whom you can assign household tasks.
Creating the account in the GUI
In the GUI, create the account, and give it a password. Do not make it an administrator. For the purposes of this doc, it will be called susi.
Creating the account via command line
I found a good script online for creating accounts, and modified that, but the meat of it is:
username="susi"; homedir="/var/susi"; # Create the user account dscl . -create /Users/${username}; dscl . -create /Users/${username} UserShell /usr/bin/false; dscl . -create /Users/${username} UniqueID ${new_uid}; dscl . -create /Users/${username} RealName "${username}"; dscl . -create /Users/${username} PrimaryGroupID "${new_gid}"; dscl . -create /Users/${username} Password "*" dscl . -create /Users/${username} NFSHomeDirectory ${homedir}; # Create the group dscl . -create /Groups/${username}; dscl . -create /Groups/${username} RecordName "_${username} ${username}"; dscl . -create /Groups/${username} PrimaryGroupID "${new_gid}"; dscl . -create /Groups/${username} RealName "${username}"; dscl . -create /Groups/${username} Password "*"; # Create the home dir mkdir ${homedir}; chown ${username}:${username} ${homedir}; # Test results echo "Testing results"; echo "User entry for ${username}:"; dscl . -read /Users/${username}; echo; echo "Group entry for ${username}"; dscl . -read /Groups/${username};
Once we have the account in place, we can install the npre bits. The two main parts are the nagios plugins, and the nrpe service.
Install nagios plugins
First, make yourself a working space:
mkdir nrpe_install cd nrpe_install
Now, get the plugins. The source forge site is http://sourceforge.net/projects/nagiosplug/files/ Or you can try this direct download from a mirror on the command line:
curl -o nagios-plugins-1.4.15.tar.gz \ http://voxel.dl.sourceforge.net/project/nagiosplug/nagiosplug/1.4.15/nagios-plugins-1.4.15.tar.gz
Unpack the tarball, go into the directory and build the code then come back up:
tar -xvf nagios-plugins-1.4.15.tar.gz cd nagios-plugins-1.4.15 ./configure make sudo make install cd ..
That was easy.
Install nrpe
You can fine nrpe here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/nagios/files/ Or try a direct mirror link:
curl -o nrpe-2.12.tar.gz \ http://superb-sea2.dl.sourceforge.net/project/nagios/nrpe-2.x/nrpe-2.12/nrpe-2.12.tar.gz
Unpack and jump into the folder:
tar -xvzf nrpe-2.12.tar.gz cd nrpe-2.12
Now, we have to make a minor change to the configure file, using vi or your favorite text editor, open the configure file and find the line that tests for the libssl.so file, and comment that out, and add a test for libssl.dylib instead:
vi ./configure
It should look like this when you are done:
ssllibdir="$dir" #if test -f "$dir/libssl.so"; then if test -f "$dir/libssl.dylib"; then found_ssl=yes break fi
Now, if you created the user account via System Preferences, configure nagios to use the susi account, and staff as the group:
./configure \ --with-nagios-user=susi --with-nagios-group=staff \ --with-nrpe-group=staff --with-nrpe-user=susi
If, on the other hand,you created the user account via command line, configure nagios to use the susi account, and susi as the group:
./configure \ --with-nagios-user=susi --with-nagios-group=susi \ --with-nrpe-group=susi --with-nrpe-user=susi
If the configure fails complaining about not being able to find the ssl libraries, double check the configure file–I got held up for a while missing that my browser and editor "helped" me by using smart quotes instead regular double quotes. Now run a make and install the parts we want.
make all sudo make install-plugin sudo make install-daemon sudo make install-daemon-config
Ok, if everything went well, great. Next we edit nrpe.cfg.
The nrpe config file is at /usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg, let's take a quick look:
less /usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg
In the hardcoded commands section, note the structure:
command[check_users]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_users -w 5 -c 10
In this case, if the nagios server contacts this machine asking for the nrpe service to run the command check_user, the nrpe service (running as susi) will run:
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_users -w 5 -c 10
and pass the results and error codes back to the nagios server. Try running the command now as yourself and see if it works ok. Next, let's try starting up an instance of the daemon to make sure it works:
sudo /usr/local/nagios/bin/nrpe -c /usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg -d
Now, what nagios uses on the server end to check the nrpe service running on the various machines to be monitored is itself a plugin, check_nrpe. That plugin is installed, so we can check to see if the nrpe service is working ok by calling it with check_nrpe thusly:
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H localhost -c check_users
Assuming this works, you should get something back like:
USERS OK - 3 users currently logged in |users=3;5;10;0
Now, what we've just done is verify that we have a working version of nrpe that can be started on this machine, and can be queried using the check_nrpe plugin from nagios. What we need to do now is get this working so that our nagios server can query this machine using that check_nrpe over the network. Next, kill the daemon, and we'll make some changes in the basic configuration. Run:
ps -A | grep nrpe
You should get back something like this:
28582 ?? 0:00.03 /usr/local/nagios/bin/nrpe -c /usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg -d 28608 ttys000 0:00.00 grep nrpe
The process id for the nrpe command in this case is 28582, so we use that to kill it.
sudo kill -9 28582
Make a backup of the config file:
sudo cp /usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg \ /usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg.orig
Open the config file:
sudo vi /usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg
Find the line with allowed hosts, and add the ip number of your nagios server after 127.0.0.1:
We also want to be able to add our own scripts for queries, and we want to do that in such a way as to allow for easy administration. So find the section for include config directory, and add a line:
This dir doesn't exist yet, but it is where we will put our plugin configuration. Any file ending in .cfg and place in this directory will be loaded when nrpe starts. Save the file and quit, then run:
sudo mkdir /usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.d
Next create a file, say:
sudo vi /usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.d/cs-nrpe-mac.cfg
And add your own commands:
# # These are local CS check commands for macintosh systems # command[check_light_load]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_load -w 6.00,6.00,6.00 -c 10.00,10.00,10.00 command[check_heavy_load]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_load -w 12.00,12.00,12.00 -c 24.00,24.00,24.00 # Check for free space in /Users, exclude /afs command[check_User_disk]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk -w 10% -c 5% -x /afs -p /Users command[check_uptime]=/usr/bin/uptime command[check_kernel]=/usr/bin/uname -spr command[check_zombies]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_procs -s Z -w 3 -c 6 command[check_run]=/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_procs -s R -w 3 -c 6
If you write a script in bash or whatever, and you follow the guidelines on how the check_nrpe plug works, you can make custom queries. See for example the check_temper plugin. Restart the daemon:
sudo /usr/local/nagios/bin/nrpe -c /usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg -d
Now, login to your nagios server, and call the check_nrpe command against the workstation you've just set up with the check_users command, using the ip name or number of the machine you're running nrpe on:
/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H myhost.mydomain -c check_users
You should get a response similar to what you get when you run the check_nrpe plugin locally.
- If you get an error "Connection refused by host" immediately, double check to make sure that you have the correct ip for the nagios server in the nrpe.cfg, and that the nrpe service is running normally.
- If the connection appears to hang, check your firewall settings to make sure the firewall will accept connections from the nagios server.
- If you get an error that check_users is not defined, make sure you are starting nrpe with the correct path to the nrpe.cfg file.
Starting nrpe via launchd
For more on this topic, see Starting-nrpe-via-launchd, but basically, you create a file in /Library/LaunchDaemons/ that contains the instructions for running the nrpe service. By convention, the name of this file begins with the reverse of the domain "owning" it, so in my case the file is named edu.unc.cs.nrpe.plist. Here's a copy of my version, which is a bit different from the one on the web site above.
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/ PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>KeepAlive</key> <dict> <key>NetworkState</key> <true/> </dict> <key>UserName</key> <string>susi</string> <key>GroupName</key> <string>staff</string> <key>ProgramArguments</key> <array> <string>/usr/local/nagios/bin/nrpe</string> <string>-c</string> <string>/usr/local/nagios/etc/nrpe.cfg</string> <string>-i</string> </array> <key>Sockets</key> <dict> <key>Listeners</key> <dict> <key>SockServiceName</key> <string>5666</string> <key>SockType</key> <string>stream</string> <key>SockFamily</key> <string>IPv4</string> </dict> </dict> <key>inetdCompatibility</key> <dict> <key>Wait</key> <false/> </dict> <key>Label</key> <string>edu.unc.cs.nrpe</string> </dict> </plist>
Ok, to start the service, you go to the folder where the launchdaemons are storted and use launchctl to load the plist and to start the daemon:
cd /Library/LaunchDaemons/ sudo launchctl load edu.unc.cs.nrpe.plist sudo launchctl start edu.unc.cs.nrpe
And here's how you stop it:
sudo launchctl stop edu.unc.cs.nrpe sudo launchctl unload edu.unc.cs.nrpe.plist
Try starting the daemon, and then run the check again:
/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H myhost.mydomain -c check_users
If you don't get a response, check the system log:
sudo tail -f /var/log/system.log
If you see a bunch of stuff similar to this run by:
Oct 27 11:28:32 myhost.mydomain com.apple.launchd[1] (com.apple.launchd.peruser.504): Throttling respawn: Will start in 10 seconds Oct 27 11:28:42 myhost.mydomain com.apple.launchd[1] (com.apple.launchd.peruser.504[12283]): getpwuid("504") failed Oct 27 11:28:42 myhost.mydomain com.apple.launchd[1] (com.apple.launchd.peruser.504[12283]): Exited with exit code: 1
you probably have a problem with the account. Double check to make sure that the nrpe.cfg file is specifying the correct user and group. Also, if you start over at some point and delete or create an account, one thing to be aware of is account data is cached in the system. The errors above I got after deleting an account via commnand line, that account had the UID of 504 but the cache had not cleared, so I rebooted and the errors stopped.
An installer script
I've put together some scripts to do all of this automagically, but use them at your own risk. There's a 00readme, but the short version is you download it, unpack it, and then run it, giving it the userid you would like nrpe to run under and the ip number of your nagios server. You can download it here.
myworkstation:~ hays$ tar -xzf nrpe_installer.tgz myworkstation:~ hays$ cd nrpe_installer myworkstation:nrpe_installer hays$ sudo ./install.sh Usage: install.sh [OPTIONS] -c = Configure nrpe packages on this system -m = Make nrpe packages on this system -i = Install made verison -a = Configure, Make, Install all This should work in all cases for a fresh installation, and possibly all generic cases -u = Userid to use for installation, who the installed software will run as (required) -s = Ip number of the nagios server (required) The most common usage would be: ./install.sh -a -u [userid] -s [nagios server ip number] myworkstation:nrpe_installer hays$ sudo ./install.sh -u susi -s x.x.x.x -a

As students around the Bay are heading back to school, parents will be pleased to know students travelling on Bayhopper buses will receive free fares through a yearlong trial.
The fare-free trial of free bus transport for Tauranga school students was adopted in June 2019 as part of the Bay of Plenty Regional Council's Annual Plan 2019/2020, says Bay of Plenty Regional Council's public transport committee chair Cr Andrew von Dadelszen.
In 2019, a free-fare bus trial was held in Welcome Bay to see whether free fares for students can assist in Tauranga's traffic congestion.
In figures shown to The Weekend Sun, during the month of August 2019, 9310 students caught a bus in the morning, compared to August 2018 when 4518 caught the bus in the morning and had to pay.
In the afternoon during the month of August, 7063 students boarded a bus to Welcome Bay in the afternoon in 2018 whereas 11,888 students boarded a bus in August during 2019 when the fare-free bus trial was taking place.
Andrew says the reason the afternoon use is higher than the morning is largely due to school kids being dropped off at school in the morning, then catching the bus home.
The total boarding for buses in Welcome Bay from June to December 2019 is 88,996 compared to 56,662 students in total from June to December in 2018.
Andrew says because of the disruption to school services that were experienced in the first term of 2019, it wasn't until June that they were able to get reliable readings.
For students wanting to gain a fare-free bus ride this year, all they need to do is travel on a dedicated school bus or urban Bayhopper bus before 9am and between 2.30pm and 6.30pm.
"This is a one year trial and applied to school days only. Students must have their student ID and/or be in school uniform," says Andrew.
"Transport was one of the key focus areas of consultation on the Annual Plan, with councillors also agreeing to progress a trial in 2020 of services to help tertiary students and commuters travel between Whakatane, Rotorua, Kaitkati and Tauranga.
"It's hoped the transport trials will provide some solid information for staff to use when the decision of whether or not to continue them on a permanent basis is made."
Some school bus routes for 2020 has been changed with some new routes also being added.
"This is to provide additional capacity for the expected increase in student numbers," says Andrew.
"In many cases this year's bus trips will be quicker for students."

Bohp-boh-doh-doh, Bohp-boh-doh-doh, Bohp-boh-doh-doh
I'm checkin' my checkbook, 'cause it's never balanced,
but then again neither am I
A lifelong resistance to corporate existence,
there's always someway to get by
The money I spent, well sometimes was the rent,
which explains some places I've stayed
But the lines that I've toed and the rows that I've hoed,
were the choices that I alone made
Ah, the price of success, is too steep I guess
Hold all my calls, just tell 'em all, he's away from his desk
The response I detest, is the robot-like yes
From corporate phonies who lack the cojones
To step away from their desk
Bohp-boh-doh-doh, Bohp-boh-doh-doh,
Bohp-boh-doh-doh, Bohp-boh-doh-doh,
Some people say that they don't like to work,
when it's really their job they can't stand
When you like what you do and you do what you like,
it's a feeling you can't understand
Whether playing beach bars or filling up cars,
it depends on your point of view
'Cause the full-service man with the pump in his hand
is working an island job, too.
- - - , His gas pump's been blessed,
it likes self-service best
He can't be reached, he's retired to the beach
He's away from his desk, Bohp-boh-doh-doh, ....
The weather man says there'll be rain in the morning,
but he's wrong more often than not
But I'm hedging my bets, my alarm clock is set,
if it's sunny, I'm off like a shot
'Cause it always seems that fairways and greens
are reason to take the day off
If the boss wants to know, tell him I had to go
to a meeting called afternoon golf
- - - , And may I suggest, use your 3-iron less
It's a good round so far, I'm 1-over par.

Thank you so much for providing a safe and free environment on the www for our kids. I am going to share this site with everyone who I know. I am even going to let out PTO know about it at the school. Moms are always concerned about their childrens involvement on the web, we even have had a police officer come and talk about keeping your kids safe and things you can look out for.
I really appreciate all your hard work and believe me all those countless hours matter and hopefully will save children from predators and the like.
Thank you again !
Beth AKA plussizemommy
ps. you may want to announce your site on www.momfaves.com
It is a site that has things moms like and people can vote for you (your site) you can check it out, I think it would be another great way to get the Bragstreet name out there, it is geared to moms, so I am sure you will get a lot of feedback and it is certain to get your name out there !!

text: Dianna Bowes / Saturday, August 1, 2015 / Categories: Money, Career, Purpose, Lifestyle Are We Forgetting Something Essential When Planning Retirement? Many Don't Realize It Until They Stop Working Most people have some kind of lifestyle vision for retirement. Unfortunately, without proper planning their dreams won't always become a reality as they enter the encore time of their lives, says Michael Bivona, a certified public accountant who retired almost 20 years ago. "I had a simple plan: When I stopped working I planned on living on my 42-foot Chris Craft cruiser with my wife, Barbara, which was a very pleasant pastime during my busy working years," he says. "But, after a few weeks, as we tried to make our dream a reality we found that we were bored out of our minds. "Pre-retirees and retirees are rightly concerned about whether they can afford retirement. But not having enough to do is another kind of deficit that is frequently overlooked until it's too late," says Bivona, author of the book "Retiring? Beware!! Don't Run Out of Money and Don't Become Bored" (www.michaelbivonabooks.com). He offers possible avenues to explore for a fulfilling retirement lifestyle. • Develop a social network with senior civic centers. Civic centers, which usually have a department dedicated to the betterment of the senior citizens who live in their areas, can be found in almost every municipality in the United States. These centers offer a wide range of activities. Additionally, the following online search, "Fun Activities for Senior Citizens," offers a nice list of activities and associated details that can be explored prior to retiring. • Try on a pair of dancing shoes. For some, the thought of dancing may elicit a strong sense of aversion, but you may want to try it anyway. The benefits include exercise, coordination and possibly enjoying a romantic hobby with your spouse or others. Dancing is a beautiful art form that gives participants something with which to challenge themselves, Bivona says. A goal-oriented mindset is a healthy one especially when approaching the encore years. • Make the most of your travels. Traveling is a common bucket list item for most retirees. Of course, it's going to cost you. That's why this is a subject that perfectly combines the two great concerns for retirement: money and purpose, both of which can be maximized with "research, research, research, Bivona says. You might even parlay traveling with another interest, such as your family history. You may learn about your roots at www.Ancestory.com, and then visit areas based on your research. Or, you may be more interested in stretching your dollar. There are many cost effective deals to be had by researching your heart's desire on the internet. • Stay sharp and keep learning. The mind is much like the body: If you don't use it you will accelerate the process of losing it. Building bridges to new adventures is the key to maintaining your mental acuity and increasing your vitality. There are an abundance of educational courses developed for seniors to keep them exercising their mental prowess. Remember, if you started working in your twenties and retire in your sixties, there's a good chance you'll spend as many years in retirement as you did working.

In recent years, electricity consumption in Germany has averaged 550 TWh (source: Umweltbundesamt). About 10 - 11% of the electricity is used in Germany to generate light. In many industries this part is much higher.
An energy saving of 75%, as achieved with the use of Plastimat LEDan lamps, means the saving of several power plants and large quantities of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide.
CO² Emission
A classic fluorescent tube produces 3.5 times more CO² than the Plastimat LEDan luminaire. (150cm, calculated according to CO² emission factor Strommix, source: Umweltbundesamt)
Reducing waste and recycling the recyclable material means a significant relief for people and the environment. Plastimat LEDan lamps have up to five times the lifespan of traditional fluorescent lamps and are also free of mercury and other environmentally hazardous heavy metals.
A recyclable Plastimat LEDan luminaire stands up to five classic mercury-containing fluorescent tubes.
