Migrate data from a server
If you're transitioning from a legacy server to Dropbox Business, life for your team is about to get much easier. They'll be able to access data anytime and anywhere.
If your team doesn't have a lot of data to move, they can simply copy and paste their files into the Dropbox folder on their desktop. Check out the Add your team's files article for more information.
Key points:
- Communication is key - let your team know that you are migrating data from your server to Dropbox. They should avoid making changes to files during the transition.
- Think about how to prioritize your files - whether they're active files or older backups - for migration. Having a migration strategy will help the process run more smoothly.
- We recommend moving data in batches. Try starting the process overnight or over a weekend when your team is less likely to need access to their files.
- During initial data migrations, Dropbox saves a copy of your files to your local hard drive. Make sure your computer has enough space to support the migration from your server to Dropbox. You can always free up space on your local hard drive after the initial migration using Selective Sync.
Note: This article is meant to show you how to move data from a single server computer to Dropbox. If you're migrating files that are stored on more than one computer or server, we recommend installing Dropbox on multiple computers and syncing the data that way.
Migrating data from a server
Important note: We only recommend installing Dropbox on a server during the migration process. We don't recommend installing Dropbox on a server on an ongoing basis.
- Install Dropbox on your server computer. Make sure you're accessing the server directly and not logging in remotely.
- Log in to the Dropbox desktop application with your admin account. This will create an empty Dropbox folder on the computer's main drive.
- Now that the Dropbox folder has been created on your server computer, you can start setting up your folders.
- From the server computer, copy or move the folders that you would like to sync to Dropbox into the new folders you created. Start with files your team accesses frequently and copy (or move) the data over in batches.
- Make sure you are continuously logged in to the server computer until the migration is complete. Don't log out, change settings, or power off the device during the migration process. The desktop application will only sync while you're logged in. You can check the sync status at any time using the desktop application.
- Once the migration process is complete, your team can transition from accessing the files through the server and use the Dropbox application instead.
- Finally, unlink your account from the server computer.
Frequently Asked Questions
How can I sync my data to Dropbox as fast as possible?
Migration speed depends on your Internet connection and bandwidth. We recommend starting the migration process in the evening, or before a weekend. This will give you enough time to transfer all your files without interrupting your team's productivity.
If you want to sync data more quickly, you can always increase your bandwidth settings, which allows Dropbox to take up more of your Internet bandwidth.
Note: Remember, please be patient! Your initial sync may take some time. File syncing is a complex process that involves several steps behind the scenes:
- Each file is first hashed and compressed. It's then transferred, encrypted, and stored on our servers.
- The Dropbox sync status displays an aggregate kB/s speed that includes this process.
- Once your files have been transferred to our servers, any updates or changes to the files will sync much faster.
What is the best way to stay productive while I am migrating files to Dropbox? Can I work on files that have been uploaded to Dropbox while the migration is still in progress?
Every business works a little differently. Some teams find that it makes sense to migrate archived files first. For others, it might make more sense to start with active files.
Either way, we recommend that you move your files in batches, preferably when the data is not being accessed. This will help make the Dropbox syncing process smoother and faster.
To avoid any duplicate file versions or confusion, you should:
- Avoid editing any files in folders that are still being synced to Dropbox or to any user's computer.
- At times, Dropbox is unable to sync files left open by certain applications. If this happens, close the application and Dropbox should resume syncing those files.
- As soon as a folder shows a green circle with a check mark for all users, you can safely collaborate within that folder.
Can I replicate my server file structure in Dropbox Business?
If you have a large amount of data, we recommend that you create a file structure in Dropbox Business first. Use blank folders and labels as placeholders for your data.
After sharing these empty folders with your team, you can start moving data into the folders.
Note: Dropbox doesn't allow you to share a folder that's contained in another shared folder. This is to ensure simple permission settings and sharing. For more tips on setting up a folder structure, check out our Set up your folders article.
What if I don't have enough space on my local hard drive to sync to Dropbox?
If you don't have enough space on your local hard drive:
- Move files over in batches.
- Wait for them to sync to Dropbox.
- Use Selective Sync to remove them from your local hard drive.
- Repeat this process until you have synced all your files to Dropbox.
Note: It's possible to use Dropbox with an external drive, but it has to stay connected at all times. The drive should be physically connected, not a Network Attached Storage (NAS) drive, and it needs to be properly formatted for the operating system of the connected device.
I need help. Can I get support or assistance?
Some companies prefer to use a 3rd party provider to help with the data migration process.
SkySync integrates your existing network or ECM storage systems with Dropbox. Move or sync files, permissions, and properties across Dropbox and other systems automatically.
Mover provides data migration and backups for any cloud storage provider. It also helps migrate and back up all data in Dropbox Business to any other online or on-premises storage.

Dot Records founder Randy Wood was looking for a song for a young Pat Boone to record in 1955 and found it in the Fats Domino hit "Ain't That a Shame?" Except Boone, then an English major, wanted to sing "Isn't That a Shame?" After a few run-throughs, Wood insisted, "It's got to be 'ain't'," and Boone soon had his first No. 1 single.
Wood's practice of having white singers such as Boone cover rhythm and blues hits by black artists is credited by some with helping black musicians -- and early rock music -- break into the commercial mainstream. Pop stations that had limited airplay mainly to white artists found room for the remakes, which helped introduce the black R&B; sound to a white audience.
Wood died Saturday at his La Jolla home of complications from injuries suffered in a fall down stairs in his house, said his son John Wood. He was 94.
Calling him "one of the people I owe my career to," singer Pat Boone said Wood "picked out all my early hits."
"He was just my mentor, my angel," Boone, who stayed with Dot Records for 13 years, told The Times in 2005.
The R&B; remakes were not without controversy. Dot Records, Boone and other singers were accused of stealing music and success from the black artists.
"That's a perversion of history," Boone said. "The recording directors at the small R&B; labels wanted to attract attention to their artists, and the covers expanded the impact of the song. Little Richard, Fats Domino and Chuck Berry were all thrilled because it made it possible for their songs to finally get heard, and Randy knew that."
At one point in the mid-1950s, Dot had five of the top 10 hits on the Billboard charts, said Larry Welk, who is the son of the late band leader Lawrence Welk and first worked with Wood in 1960.
"He was a true pioneer in the music business," Welk said in a 2005 Times interview. "He put in effect a lot of policies in the music business that will outlive him."
One innovation included automatically shipping large numbers of a record to distributors if Wood thought the song was a hit and guaranteeing that the unsold ones could be returned, Welk said.
When Wood opened a small appliance store in 1945 in Gallatin, Tenn., he stocked pop records, but customers kept asking for R&B.; So Wood started a mail-order business for the hard-to-find records and advertised it on a late-night R&B; show he put together for WLAC, a Nashville radio station with a national presence.
"Randy's radio show played what were called 'race records' in those days, and he knew what the huge black hits were," Welk said. "Since whites weren't buying black hits, he'd be selling stuff through his record shop and then he'd cover the same song with a white artist."
By 1950, the store had become Randy's Record Shop and soon was selling almost 500,000 records a month. Wood also launched an independent record label and named it Dot because it was "simple and easy to remember," his son said.
The first group to put Dot on the pop charts, in 1952, was a group made up of mostly Western Kentucky College students who went by the school's nickname, the Hilltoppers. Their first Dot record, " 'Tryin'," made it to No. 7.
Boone moved beyond recording covers and became Dot's most successful artist, rivaling Elvis Presley's chart dominance.
The company also had other hits in the 1950s and '60s, including "Pipeline" by the Surfaris, "Calcutta" by Lawrence Welk and "Melody of Love" by Billy Vaughn, a Hilltopper who became Dot's musical director.
Dot's catalog was "totally eclectic," Wood's son said, and included a "tremendous" number of black artists. "It went from Liberace to Louis Armstrong, T-Bone Walker to Lawrence Welk."
Lawrence Welk told The Times in 1961 that his success as a recording artist came only after Wood advised him "to record music that is more for listening than dancing."
Wood's "radar" for hits was ever-present, Boone said.
At recording sessions, Wood would show up with three or four songs for Boone to record.
"Most of them were pretty simple," Boone said. "Three hours later, we were through and at least one of the records would be a million-seller."
From 1954 to 1956, Dot specialized in R&B; cover records. The Fontane Sisters, who had sung backup for Perry Como, had a gold record with "Hearts of Stone," which had been recorded by several black artists. Among Boone's hits were remakes of Little Richard's "Tutti Frutti" and the Charms' "Two Hearts."
After Wood saw actress Gale Storm sing on television, he had her record R&B; covers, including Smiley Lewis' "I Hear You Knocking," which reached No. 2 in 1955.
Wood walked out of a Tab Hunter movie convinced that the actor's looks and teen idol status would sell records. He had Hunter record "Young Love," which was soon a No. 1 single in 1957. (Warner Bros. refused to let Hunter make any more records for Dot because the studio said the actor, and his voice, were under contract.)
Artists were loyal to Wood, who was known for being fair-minded.
"He certainly was one of the most ethical people I've ever met," Larry Welk said. "He really cared about people and seeing them succeed."
Randolph Clay Wood was born March 30, 1917, in Morrison, Tenn. The only child of two teachers, he built a crystal radio set when he was about 15 and radio became "the love of his life," his son said.
He earned a bachelor's degree at Middle Tennessee State University in 1937 and served as a radio communications officer in the Army Air Forces during World War II.
Dot Records and the Wood family moved to Hollywood in 1956, and the company became known for reissuing recordings by small independent labels, including "Come Go With Me" by the Del Vikings and "From a Jack to a King" by Ned Miller.
In 1957, Paramount Pictures bought Dot, and Wood stayed on as president for a decade. ABC bought Dot in 1974 and discontinued the label three years later.
Wood started another label, Ranwood Records, with Larry Welk in 1968. It became the outlet for many artists associated with Lawrence Welk and remains in business in Santa Monica.
Randy's Record Shop, which closed in 1991, has been designated a historical site in Tennessee.
In addition to his son John, a jazz pianist in Los Angeles, Wood is survived by his wife of 69 years, Lois; another son, Larry, a teacher in Los Angeles; a daughter, Linda, a book publisher in La Jolla; three grandchildren; and a great-grandchild.

No worries JoeZS19 , if you havent got one already, pick up one of these bad boys: http://www.fordpartsuk.com/shop/ford_ipod_connector_lead__f_1529487_c_420.htm
The aux input is just a dumb input so it just plays what it receives with no control apart from volume from the car. if you connect to USB as well then it turns into a proper ipod control and you can browse your albums and playlists etc through the car controls and see them on your screen. You can also play things from a USB stick when plugged into the USB port
JoeZS19 reacted to a post in a topic: Radio Controls Not Working
you should still be able to stream via bluetooth *i think. Ah but i guess you are using an ipod rather than an iphone which would not have bluetooth. i dont know where you can get the module but im sure someone will, i know it goes behind the glovebox and a cable runs from from there to the USB port. once youve got all the parts its a simple DIY. Ken
Radio Controls Not Working
ken replied to UUilliam's topic in Ford Fiesta ClubAnother vote for disconnecting the battery - helped with an issue i had a couple of years ago when the whole thing stopped working. Is it updated with the latest firmware?
ken started following Been A While Since Posting. New Interior Sprayed!, Radio Controls Not Working, Help With Car Radio/ipod??? and and 5 others
If you dont have USB i suppose you dont have Bluetooth either, but if you do then you can control your music when you are streaming music via bluetooth, which works well. Other than that you will need to install the USB option and then get the cable which connects to the USB and AUX and it works perfectly. Ken
Changing Dash Display
ken replied to JamesEmbling's topic in Ford Fiesta ClubIf you are talking about the mk7 then which aftermarket headunit has it got? Mine has an aftermarket one and it has a config section where i can set things like indicator settings and miles or KM. There are not many aftermarket stereos for the M7 so you might have the same as me.
Does the AUX port next to the USB go directly to the stereo then? i dont think i even looked while i had my car apart but i dont recall it going into the wiring loom at the back of the stereo...
As mentioned above you can unplug the existing USB cable that goes to the port near the gear stick and plug your own in and put it anywhere. I had to do the opposite with mine because i changed the stereo but wanted to use the existing USB port by the gearstick. So i traced the port back and it lead to the control box under the glove box, i unplugged the cable from there and connected it to my after-market stereo and it works perfectly.
Ive got the older unit and basically it replaces the screen with a bigger one and the main stereo control unit as well. this is basically a silver box that sits behind the buttons you see and the CD drive is part of that silver box which is replaced. however the front still looks the same because the hole is built into the standard fascia which is kept. as per my picture on the left <------
Any news on this? i would be keen to compare the old and the new versions
Mk7 2009/10 Stereo Pinout
ken posted a topic in Ford Fiesta ClubHi All Anyone know where i can get hold of the stereo pin out? i am talking about the buttons from the front panel here not the main unit because i have those. I think there is 14 pins on the plug to the button panel and i just want to know which pin does what. Thanks Ken

ken replied to Roxanne8907's topic in Ford Fiesta ClubYou mentioned that you have GAP insurance, does that mean you get the full price you paid for the car back rather than just what its worth now? Not nice to know that Ford warranty isn't worth much.
Been A While Since Posting. New Interior Sprayed!
ken replied to Moses-cuz's topic in Ford Fiesta ClubDo you not find you get glare on the windscreen from the white above the stereo/screen? one of my old cars had a dash sprayed white/light grey and it looked great but cause quite bad glare/reflection in the windscreen on a sunny day.
Challenge: How Far Can You Go?
ken replied to iNath's topic in Ford Fiesta ClubI cant remember exact figures but I've had 500+ miles out of a tank quite a few times as i generally drive pretty sedately. i have to really considering i have to drive 100 miles a day to get to work and back, if i didn't i would be bankrupt lol Since owning the car, (2.5 years now) my average fuel consumption is 59.8 and considering i do have the odd lead foot driving session when on the way to rugby or somewhere, i think thats damn impressive! Ive never done a pure motorway drive mpg test, i imagine staying at 70 on the motorway would get pretty high mpg figures but as my journey to work is all b roads through villages and what not i don't get to test the mpg properly

A new FF, a new IP, or an iOS port?
I love iOS gaming -- I really do. Over the years, a number of amazing original games have enamored me into playing more and more on the mobile market, and it's allowed a ton of indie devs to flourish with low development costs and high potential sales.
But there's one thing iOS gaming does that leaves a bad taste in my mouth: it steals the thunder of teasers. Yep, when a teaser site used to pop up for a franchise in the old days, everyone would go ape over a potential sequel, or a spinoff. Now, everyone's rolling their eyes and saying, "yawn, it's probably another iOS port." With Square Enix, it's happened before.
Here we go again it seems, because in the case of this new Theatrhythm teaser site that simply states an announcement is "coming soon," an iOS port may very well be in the cards (or it could be Theatrhythm Dragon Quest -- a man can dream, right?).
Of course, an iOS port wouldn't be a bad thing at all, as I think everyone who likes rhythm games should play Theatrhythm Final Fantasy -- it's an experience that shouldn't be restricted to 3DS owners exclusively. Still, a sequel or another game would be great!

Geography & Map Division
James Wilson, Globe Maker
James Wilson
[Terrestrial Globe]
3" globe, 1820's
James Wilson was the first American globe maker. Starting as a Vermont farmer, he taught himself geography and apprenticed as an engraver in order to make paper globe gores. The skilled carpenter also made the spheres and wooden stands for his 3-, 9-, and 11-inch globes. His sons joined him in his Albany, N.Y., business and together they produced globes from 1811 to the late 1820s.
Treatment: The images on the sphere and horizon ring of this terrestrial globe were obscured by discolored shellac. There were multiple design losses on the horizon ring, as well as a break in its wooden structure. Conservators removed the discolored shellac using cotton swabs and solvent. They infilled and inpainted delicately and judiciously the design losses on the horizon ring.
Early Map of America
Americae sive quartae orbis partis nova et exactissima descriptio.
(Auctore Diego Gutiero Philippi Regis Hisp. etc. Cosmographo. Hiero Cock Excude. 1562)
In 1562 Diego Gutiérrez, a Spanish cartographer from the respected Casa de la Contratación, and Hieronymous Cock, a noted engraver from Antwerp, collaborated in the preparation of a spectacular and ornate map of what was then referred to as the fourth part of the world, America. The map depicts the Spanish dominion of America. It shows the eastern coast of North America, all of Central and South America, and portions of the western coasts of Europe and Africa.
Treatment: The map was engraved on six assembled sheets of laid paper that were later lined with modern bond paper and fabric. However, areas of the map were badly damaged, tears were poorly aligned and repairs of pressure-sensitive tape were applied to the back prior to lining. Parts of the map were obscured by the overlap of neighboring sections. In order to take off the tape, conservators removed the linings by immersing the map in a water bath. They separated the sections using an enzyme to dissolve the old adhesive. They repaired damaged areas and aligned tears by mending with Japanese tissue and wheat starch paste. Finally, they reassembled the sections to reveal as much image as possible. Following conservation, the Library produced a full-size facsimile of the map which is available for sale in the Library's gift shop.
Mapping the New World
Johann Ruysch
"Universalior cogniti orbis tabula…" in Claudius Ptolemaeus' Georgraphia
Rome: Bernardius de Vitalibus
In 1507 and 1508, Bernardus Venetus de Vitalibus published editions of Ptolemy's Geography in Rome. It included not only the theretofore traditional 27 maps, but seven additional maps based on contemporary information. These are the first editions to include a world map showing the discoveries of the New World. The map, drawn by Johann Ruysch, clearly reveals the confusion that existed concerning the nature of the discoveries occurring in the New World. For example, Columbus's discoveries are drawn as islands off the coast of Asia, while Newfoundland, discovered by John Cabot in 1497, is shown as a peninsula of Asia.
Treatment: Conservators removed the textblock from its binding and disbound the pages. They brushed a solution of hydrogen peroxide over lead paint on two maps that had darkened with age and the dark color reverted to white They then drycleaned each page, washed them in water, and deacidified them using a dilute solution of magnesium bicarbonate. They made paper mends with Japanese tissue and wheat starch paste. The pages were resewn with linen thread over split alum-tawed strips. They also sewed on new endbands. Finally, they created a full limp vellum cover with yapp edges and exposed sewing strips, in a style sympathetic to the period in which the map was produced.
French Atlas
Gerard Mercator
Atlas Minor, ou briefve et vive description de tout le Monde
Amsterdam, Chez. I. Ianson, 1630
This atlas is the first French edition of Mercator's Atlas, translated from the 1607 Latin edition which contains 146 maps produced between 1512-1594. Mercator, a copper engraver and globe maker, is credited with revolutionizing 17th century cartography through his use of modern scientific methods to measure and create new maps rather than revising existing maps. In 1604 Mercator's copper plates were sold to Amsterdam cartographer Joducus Hondius and republished in several languages.
Treatment: Conservators disbound the atlas from its deteriorated binding and washed its pages in water. Next, pages were deacidified in a separate bath. The pages were mended and guarded with japanese tissue. To complete the treatment, the volume was sewn and rebound in full leather.
Earliest Recorded Land Dispute
The Oztoticpac Lands Map.
[Mexico,] ca. 1540.
Manuscript on "amatl" paper
The Oztoticpac (Mexico) Lands Map is a central Mexican pictorial document with Spanish and Nahuatl writing showing litigation surrounding the Oztoticpac estate within the city of Texcoco, ca. 1540.
As far as is known, this is the earliest recorded lawsuit or conflict in horticultural literature anywhere in the world. The document, on pre-European "amatl" paper, involves the land and property ownership of the ruler of Texcoco, who was publicly executed in Mexico City during the early days of the Spanish Conquest in the Central Valley of Mexico. The execution left in its wake litigation involving ownership of properties claimed by various sons of Nezahualpilli, the lords of Texcoco.
In the lower left of the map are depictions of tree grafts showing European fruit tree branches grafted to indigenous tree trunks. These are the only such depictions among all known Mexican Indian pictorial documents. Shown are 20 trees identified as pomegranate, quince, apple, and pear.
Treatment: A paper conservator removed fabric and paper backings from the fibrous two-ply original paper by applying a series of three sandwiches of soaked blotters to humidify the backings. The blotters came away dirty from pollutants that had lodged in the paper. The conservator then removed backings with a scalpel.
However, a stodgy orange adhesive still remained. To prevent original fibers from detaching, the conservator removed most of the adhesive by brushing it from underneath through an upholstery hoop stretched with bridal veil mesh netting.
The conservator filled in the extensive worm-hole damage using pulp from modern amatl paper handmade in the traditional fashion. Because the front ply and back ply were different colors, the conservator used colored pencils to tint the front.
Conservators made a sink mat with a polyester window that does not touch the surface to house and display the oversized map.
Portolan Charts
[Portolan Atlas of Nine Charts and a World Map. Dedicated to Hieronymus Ruffault, Abbot of St. Vaast]
Agnese, Battista, 1514-1564.
This ca. 1544 nautical atlas of the world was rendered on vellum in pen-and-ink and watercolor and shows America at various stages of exploration. It includes an oval map, decorated with twelve named wind cherubim, that shows Magellan's route around the world, according to Ristow and Skelton's Nautical Charts on Vellum in the Library of Congress, 1977.
Treatment: Conservators carefully examined the charts for stability of pigments and condition of the vellum. Under microscopic magnification, they consolidated pigments which were actively flaking and in danger of loss with gelatin or parchment size diluted with ethanol. Where the vellum was cockled, the chart was humidified and flattened. Repairs of tears and losses were done with tinted vellum using parchment size for the adhesive.
Handy Hemispheres
Goldthwaite's Map of the World
This unique globe shows the world divided into eastern and western hemispheres. It includes an inset showing torrid, temperate, and frigid zones as well as the wildlife which inhabits each zone. The map was registered for copyright in November 1900 by William M. Goldwaite, Chicago, Ill.
Treatment: Conservators dry cleaned the globe. They washed the boards and removed a now-outmoded silking treatment designed to consolidate pieces in danger of falling off. They used enzymes to remove leftover adhesive residues from the silking process. They then immersed the globe in an alkaline solution to deacidify it. They reattached fragments using heat-set tissue toned to be color compatible, and filled in large losses with pieces of Japanese tissue.
First Modern Atlas
Abraham Ortelius
[Theatrum Orbis Terrarum]
Bound volume
This book is known as the first modern atlas. It is important because it is the first bound, uniformly sized, systematically organized collection of maps depicting the countries of the world. Ortelius created the atlas as a reference work. It was to become the prototype of almost all geographical atlases from 1570 to modern times.
The book is very rare as it is the first printing of four editions to appear in 1570 and is made more valuable by its original binding dated 1570 on the front cover.
The atlas in its original full leather binding in calfskin with a lavishly gold tooled herald device of John Bishop of Munster, Osnabruck, and Paerborn. Its highlights are painted in red, white, and brown pigments.
Treatment: Conservators disbound the volume and washed and lined the maps to increase overall stability. In so doing, they introduced magnesium bicarbonate in the wash to provide chemical stability to the paper by increasing the alkalinity to 8.5 pH and thereby slowing the degradation in the verdigris areas. They placed sheets of interleaving paper opposite the leaves with verdigris as a barrier to slow the transfer of degradation products from one page to the next.
Map of Alexandria
George Washington
[A Plan of Alexandria now Belhaven]
George Washington drew this town plan of Alexandria, Va., the first map of the city. The town was formally incorporated on July 13, 1749, and consisted of 84 lots, most of which were one-half acre in size. The site for this new town focused on a tobacco inspection warehouse and the stores of several Scottish merchants, located on the Potomac River just north of Great Hunting Creek in a small community that was originally known as Belhaven. Washington apparently prepared the map to send to his half-brother Lawrence, who was in England at the time, to show him the two town lots that had been purchased for him. Based on this map, early biographers erroneously concluded that Washington personally designed or was at least heavily involved in the city's formation. While the map is clearly in Washington's hand, there is no documentary evidence to support the claim of Washington's involvement. It is more likely that Washington derived or copied these from originals drawn by someone else,in this case John West Jr., Deputy Surveyor of Fairfax County, whom he assisted in surveying boundaries and lots. Nevertheless, the map stands as a unique example of 18th-century planning and Washington's career as a surveyor and mapmaker.
Treatment: Conservators worked hard to stabilize friable inks by consolidating them with parchment size. They removed two lining, one paper, and one cloth layer. They realigned the map, which had been distorted for many years. They then mended the map using Japanese tissue paper and wheat starch paste. They filled losses using compatible western paper.
Vienna Map
Joseph Daniel von Huber
18th century
This late 18th century map of Vienna by Joseph Daniel von Huber is one view on 24 separate sheets and measures 350 X 410 cm. Mounted on cloth backing with two wooden rods for rolling or hanging, this is the largest map in the Geography and Map Division's collections. Relief is shown by hachures, and buildings are numbered corresponding to census numbers. An index map is included with summaries in Latin, Italian, and French.
Treatment: The map's huge size makes it a challenge to display, transport, and store. The map is currently stored in a large cardboard tube. The thick-walled tube was covered with polyester to prevent any migration of acids from the tube to the map. The rolled map is stored elevated at each end by two simple stands to prevent the heavy weight of the tube from harming the map and causing any differential aging that might occur under the heavy weight. In addition, the rolled map is covered with opaque paper and plastic sheeting to protect it from dust, light, and any unexpected water exposure.
Secret Maps
Joao Teixeira
[Secret Maps of the Americas and the Indies from the Portuguese Archives]
Compiled in Lisbon in 1630, this manuscript atlas was the work of João Teixeira, who served as cosmographer to the king of Portugal and is considered the most prolific Portuguese cartographer of the 17th century. This unique compilation not only provides a comprehensive portrait of the Portuguese empire at the beginning of the 17th century but also reflects the rivalry of the Portuguese and Spanish during the European Age of Discovery.
Treatment: The binding of the atlas was deemed to be detrimental to the manuscript, therefore, it was removed prior to treatment. Each folio was drycleaned. Conservators used poultices to remove old mends. They consolidated pigment areas using methyl cellulose. They washed each folio locally using ethanol and distilled water sprayed on top of a suction table and used enzymes to remove adhesive residue. They constructed inserts for large loss areas to support rebinding. Finally, they rebound the folios.
County Atlases
U.S. County Atlas Collection
Bound volumes
The Geography and Map Division's collection of county landownership atlases numbers more than 1800 volumes. These volumes, commercially produced and sold by subscription in the late 19th century, contain cadastral or landownership maps for the individual counties and townships within a county. The atlases were based on the pre-Civil War, wall-sized, single-sheet county land ownership maps. They often included county and township histories, personal and family biographies and portraits, and views of important buildings, residences, farms, and in some cases, prized livestock.
Treatment: Conservators disbound the atlases and saved the original covers. They washed the pages and deacidified ones whose colors would not be adversely effected. They sealed the pages in polyester and placed them in a post-binding structure to permit use, provide support for the pages, and to retain the book structure.
P.O.W. Playing Cards
World War II Playing Cards Maps
In 1943, the U.S. Playing Card Company began printing card decks that contained escape maps for WWII prisoners of war. The map cards were shipped to a Ben Franklin Store in Baltimore, Md., and retrieved by a covert U.S. agency named MIS-X, based at Fort Hunt in Fairfax County, Va. The MIS-X sent the decks to German POW camps. Parcels that contained the decks of cards were made to look like donations from the U.S. charities. Part of an escape map was glued between the face and back of each of the 52 cards. To retrieve the maps, the prisoners soaked the cards to dissolve the glue that held them together, then peeled apart the layers to find the map portions bonded between them. A parcel would also contain a radio part concealed in a wooden brush, a compass hidden inside of a razor, and a cigarette pack containing foreign currency. Former POWs have told stories of using the map cards to escape. Of the 73 prison escapes by Americans during the war, it is believed that a large percentage had help from MIS-X.
Treatment: A special housing was created for these unusual items to provide support and ease access to the collection items. The housing consists of a recto/verso mat showing an uncut sheet of cards, and pockets holding two individual cards and a complete deck. There is also a wrapper attached to the cover board which contains an additional uncut map, newspaper article about the item, and a letter from the donor.
Plan for City of Washington
Pierre L'Enfant
[Plan for City of Washington]
Pierre-Charles L'Enfant's 1791 plan for the city of Washington is one of the great landmarks in city planning. It was, L'Enfant claimed, "a plan whol[l]y new," designed from its inception to serve as the framework for the capital city of the new nation beginning in the year 1800. Its scheme of broad radiating avenues connecting significant focal points, its open spaces, and its grid pattern of streets oriented north, south, east, and west is still the plan against which all modern land-use proposals for the Nation's Capital are considered.
Treatment: A two-step bench treatment was devised to take place before and after preservation digitization. At one point in its history, the map had been varnished and over the years the varnish turned dark brown, rendering the street plan illegible. Removing the varnish was determined to be out of the question as it could cause some of the original map and subsequent notations, including those made by Thomas Jefferson, to be lost. In 1988, the Library worked with the U.S. Geological Service to photograph and digitize the plan so the dark varnish background could be removed digitally and the street plan would show through once again. Simultaneously, a full-color facsimile reproduction was made. Before digitization, conservators made critical minor repairs such as removing pressure-sensitive tape from the back of the plan, reattaching detached pieces, and mending some tears. After digitization, final treatment took place. Conservators removed or thinned the white paper reinforcing strips that had been placed on the verso during the map's 1951 treatment to protect the map's edges. Conservators also removed thick glue residues along the upper and lower front edges, filled in any losses with western paper, and mended unrepaired tears using Japanese paper and wheat starch paste. Finally, the map was placed in a hermetically sealed case containing inert argon gas to protect it from further chemical and atmospheric degradation.

Drawing of the Battle of Shimabara (1637)
Inscribed 1773
This map depicts the peasant uprising of December, 1637 which caused the last great mobilization of the armed forces of the Tokugawa Shogunate (1603-1867). This hand drawn and painted map shows Christian rebels being put under siege in the Hara Castle on the Shimabara Peninsula in Kyushu and depicts many of the standards with the crests of the daimyo forces of the Tokugawa Shogunate of northern Kyushu.
Treatment: The map was hand painted in panels which had then been joined in strips and lined with Japanese handmade paper. The images were misaligned along the joins. Conservators cleaned the map using grated vinyl eraser shavings in the non-image areas.They removed the old backing and adhesive residue and float washed the map after fixing soluble areas in the image with a gelatin wash. They repaired tattered edges and tears with Japanese paper and wheat starch paste. Finally, they rejoined the pieces aligning the parts as before to keep the map historically accurate. The whole map was lined with Japanese Usu Mino paper and paste.

Indian Lands of Eastern Wisconsin
Henry Rowe Schoolcraft
This map of a part of eastern Wisconsin, probably made by a French voyageur, was carried by explorer, geologist, ethnologist, Indian agent, superintendent of Indian affairs for Michigan and author Henry Rowe Schoolcraft (1793-1864), who annotated it in the course of an expedition he made in summer 1831. Sent out by Lewis Cass (1782-1866), governor of Michigan Territory, Schoolcraft was to take a census of the Chippewa(Ojibwa Indians) and Sioux (Dakota Indians) settlements in the upper Mississippi River country and try to resolve hostilities there between the two tribes. Schoolcraft added the place names of Indian villages, chiefs' names, and pertinent census figures as well as translations of some French terms and the identification of certain geographical features. The reverse orientation of the map, with north at the bottom, may be due to voyageur's approach into the region from that direction.
Schoolcraft planned further exploration of regions beyond those shown on this map and was especially interested in mapping the sources of the Mississippi River, but he had to abandon this goal because of low water on the upper Mississippi. Exploration was resumed the following year, however, and Schoolcraft succeeded in establishing Itasca Lake as the river's source. He published the results in his "Narrative of an Expedition Through the Upper Mississippi to Itasca Lake, The Actual Source of the River; Embracing an Exploratory Trip through the St. Croix and Burntwood (or Broule) Rivers; in 1832" (New York, 1834). An account of the earlier 1831 expedition is included in this volume, and Schoolcraft's original manuscript journal is a part of his papers in the Manuscript Division.
Treatment: The map was delaminated, washed and deacidified. It was flattened and mended with japanese tissue and wheat starch paste. Additionally it was fully lined with Japanese tissue to provide further support and stability.

Removing the goop isn't that difficult, and an audible continuity tester will sort out the wires and other connections.

I've only seen two goop jobs here in the sticks so I gave them back and said: "Sorry call the builder and tell him his product broke." never heard any more from them... and since repairs are just a side thing for me and I'd rather work on guitars, it's no big deal.
Dirk_Hendrik wrote:Although I do not agree with all Bjorns statements, especially since what we have seen of his workmanship standards is rather poor, There are some comments which I fully agree with. If a (part of) the circuit is gooped some (many) techs (what makes a tech a tech?) will indeed immedidiately focus on that part of the circuit for finding the fault. Measurements not required. This is a very similar approach which is seen in for instance BBD based effects. The question "my pedal fails" is immediately followed by "is it the chip?". When one asks for measurements none have been done. This is also the approach where, again without any supporting measurements, either the chip with the most legs is the suspect. A good tech will understand the system he's working on and therefore make a founded conclusion on the failure. Good techs are hard to find.

NEW HAVEN, Conn.- The Yale men's swimming and diving team aims to continue its winning streak on Jan. 25 when it takes on the Fordham Rams and the Rider Broncs at the Rutgers University Aquatics Center. Rutgers has not fielded a men's swimming and diving team since 2007, but the university's expansive facility is an ideal battleground for the three teams competing on Saturday.
Yale's current streak of victories started with a first-place finish at the Bucknell Invitational on Nov. 24, and continued with victories over BU, Cornell, Dartmouth and Penn from Dec. 7 through Jan. 11.
Yale faced Fordham earlier this season at the Bucknell Invitational; the Rams finished in seventh place at the meet. Rider has won three consecutive dual meets, and Broncs senior Brian Molloy has posted the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference's fastest times in the 100, 200 and 500-yard freestyle events this season.
Saturday's meet is the Bulldogs' last competition before their much-anticipated home meet against Harvard and Princeton. Senior captain Ed Becker said that the Fordham/Rider meet is a good opportunity for his teammates to experiment with new events and compete for a spot in a particular race against Harvard and Princeton.
Races are scheduled to start at 10:30 a.m. at the Rutgers Aquatics Center in Piscataway, NJ.For those who wish to follow the meet online, live results will be posted at

All eyes are currently on the brand-new Apple launch event, which should see the last products that are going to be released next year. The Apple iPhone 6 is already the subject of hearsay and surmises, and reports and trickle have already started to flow. Now a fresh report suggests that the iPhone 6 could possibly have a curved display and that the display is also likely to be larger.
Sapphire Display
Apple iPhone 6 would look like with a larger screen, thinner bezel, rounded edges and no home key. Another growing possibility for the iPhone 6 is sapphire glass being used in the display, and not just for the iTouch fingerprint sensor home button and camera lens protection. as on the present iPhone 5S. Now a source said to be "familiar with the plans" has told how not only is Apple working on iPhones with larger screens, but that they could also feature curved glass.
Although sales of the iPhone are high, the Android competition has all moved to large-screen Full HD models, with the HTC One, Sony Xperia Z and Samsung Galaxy S4, so it makes sense for Apple to compete on screen size.
iPhone 6 Screen
It seems pretty clear at this point that the iPhone 6 is going to have a larger screen than any iPhone released to date. Early rumours suggested that there would be a 4.8in screen, but more recent rumours have suggested that the iPhone 6 could have a 5in screen. According to Japanese tech publication MacFun, the 5in screen will have a Full HD resolution of 1,920x1,080. From a certain point of view this makes a lot of sense, as there are already a lot of Full HD phones out there. However, we think that the resolution could be wrong, mostly because of the way that Apple works.
Apple has always been very careful in its resolution choices, so that apps look right on all of its devices. So, when Apple first went Retina with the quadrupled the resolution of the iPhone 3GS from 480x320 to the iPhone 4\'s 960x640. Quadrupling means that the horizontal and vertical resolutions are doubled, which makes scaling of old apps easy. When the company went widescreen, it kept the same horizontal resolution of 640 pixels, so old apps would run properly, but just with black bars at the top and bottom of the screen.
Moving to 1,920x1,080 would mean scaling up the current iPhone\'s resolution of 1,136x640 by 1.69 times vertically and 1.69 times horizontally. That is not such a clean method of scaling and there could be some issues with getting apps to work properly. As a result, Apple may decide to go for more resolution than it technically needs for a Retina display, quadrupling the current iPhone\'s resolution to 2,272x1,280 instead.
iPhone 6 iOS 7
We already have iOS 7, so it makes sense that this operating system will be used for the iPhone 6. It is possible, given that the iPhone 5S has features specific to it, that the OS will be updated to introduce new features with the new handset. For example, it could enable NFC is Apple decides that it wants the technology to use for mobile payments.
For the iPhone 5S Apple upped the physical size of its 8-megapixel sensor, meaning that each pixel gets more light. In addition, it upgraded the lens from an f/2.4 model to an f/2.2 model, increasing low-light performance again. Combined with the A7 SoC, the camera has a couple of neat modes, including a 10fps burst mode that goes on until the phone\'s memory is full, and a 120fps slow-motion mode. It would make sense if Apple was to use this sensor in the iPhone 6, although, given it is a bigger phone, with more room inside for components, it could well up the pixel count, with a 12- or 13-megapixel on the cards.
iPhone 6 Storage
In terms of storage, 64GB has been the top model for a couple of years, and continues to be so for the iPhone 5S. We are not expecting this to change for the iPhone 6, although we know that the Apple can make a 128GB model, thanks to the recent launch of a 128GB iPad 4. The new model doubled the maximum capacity of the previous high-end iPad (64GB). This update was said to be about increasing the variety of uses for the tablet, with Apple stating that more storage was good for large files for use in applications such as CAD and music production. It\'s also a more useful amount of storage for photos and videos.
iPhone 6 A7 SoC
At the moment, the Apple A7 system-on-a-chip (SoC) is the main focus for the company. This is the first 64-bit mobile chip and it\'s extremely fast. In fact, in our benchmarks on using the iPhone 5S, we found that the A7 is by far the fastest mobile processor. Apple has now used the A7 chip in both the iPad Air and iPad Mini with Retina Display.
Pricing starategy
Apple typically releases its new models at the same price as the old ones. If that holds out, then, and assuming that the 16GB model is dropped, we had expect the 32GB model to cost £529, the 64GB model £599 and the 128GB model £699.
iPhone 6 release date
Guessing Apple\'s release dates is a complete and utter nightmare, with practically every prediction wrong. It is clear, given that the iPhone 5S was only released in September, that we are not going to see the iPhone 6 until 2014 now.

Clean delivery kits linked to substantial reduction in neonatal deaths in South Asia, study shows
Providing clean delivery kits and improving birthing practices could halve the number of neonatal deaths following home births in South Asia, according to research funded by the Wellcome Trust.
Around half a million babies die in the first month of life from sepsis and around a third of these infections are transmitted at the time of birth. In South Asia, more than half of deliveries occur at home, most without skilled birth attendance. Maintaining clean delivery practices at home can be challenging for mothers and their birthing companions.
One way to potentially improve delivery practices is the use of locally-made kits, including soap for washing the birth attendant's hands and mother's perineum, a plastic sheet to provide a clean delivery surface, a clean string for tying the umbilical cord, a new razor blade for cutting the cord, and pictorial instructions to illustrate the sequence of events during a delivery. The cost of such kits is low, ranging from US$0.27 in Bangladesh to US$0.44 in India. Kits can also be made at home.
The benefits of clean delivery practices and clean delivery kit use are well known, but until now the impact of these kits on neonatal mortality has not been quantified. Previous estimates were drawn from an expert consultation rather than from empirical data.
To assess the impact of these kits and clean delivery practices on neonatal mortality, researchers funded through a Wellcome Trust Strategic Award examined data for almost 20,000 home births from previous studies conducted between 2000 and 2008 in India, Bangladesh and Nepal. The findings of their study are published today in the journal PLoS Medicine.
The researchers found that kits were used for just under one in five home births in India and Bangladesh, and just over one in twenty home births in Nepal. On average, kit use was associated with a 48% relative reduction in neonatal mortality. The difference was largest in India, which saw a 57% relative reduction in neonatal mortality with kit usage; in Bangladesh, the fall was 32% and in Nepal, 49%.
The results also reinforce the importance of each clean delivery practice; hand washing and use of a sterilised blade, boiled thread, and plastic sheet were all independently associated with a reduction in neonatal deaths. The researchers found a 16% relative reduction in mortality with each additional clean delivery practice used.
Dr Audrey Prost from the Centre for International Health and Development at the Institute of Child Health, UCL (University College London) says: "The number of newborn infants that die from preventable infections is shocking and needs to be tackled as a matter of urgency. The ideal is for every mother to have access to a skilled birth attendant, whether at home or in a health facility. However, since many births in low-resource settings still occur at home without a skilled birth attendant, appropriate use of a clean delivery kit and clean delivery practices offer a simple, cost-effective way to make a big impact."
However, the researchers found that just providing the kits, even with instructions, was not enough to guarantee that life-saving clean delivery practices would be used. Previous research from Nepal has shown that the instructions that come with kits are not always used or understood. In addition, delivery and postnatal practices differ according to culture, and understanding the context in which kits are used is key to developing appropriate promotion activities. Programmes have employed several approaches to this, including dissemination of kits through health facilities, community health workers, and private providers such as pharmacists.
Dr Prost's colleagues in Nepal and India found that engaging local women's groups through participatory methods, games and stories to discuss prevention and care for typical problems in mothers and new-borns improved clean delivery practices and care-seeking.
One of the study authors, Dr Nirmala Nair from the Indian non-governmental organisation Ekjut, says: "We need to think carefully about how we try to improve delivery practices. Each cultural context brings its own challenges and offers its own opportunities. In India we have worked with women's groups who have helped change practices and saved the lives of many new-born infants."
Combating infectious disease is one of the Wellcome Trust's strategic aims. Dr Jimmy Whitworth, Head of International Activities at the Wellcome Trust, says: "Reducing mortality in children is one of the Millennium Development Goals, yet still too many new-born babies are dying of potentially preventable diseases. This study has shown that clean delivery kits offer a cheap and very effective way of reducing the number of deaths, particularly when used in tandem with participatory women's groups. We hope it makes a significant contribution towards achieving the Millennium Goal."

If you ask a random person to describe the Dutch countryside, 99 times out of 100 they will mention cows in a field that is so flat, you could play snooker on it. I used to live on the Veluwe, a forest-rich ridge of hills in the province of Gelderland. This is where the place the polar ice sheets stopped during the Saale Ice Age before retreating and leaving the deposits behind.
To me, the fields with cows are just as foreign as to you. One of the most interesting places around where I grew up was Kootwijkerzand, a 7km2 large area of sand dunes and Scots Pines. The area was lucky enough to be too poor to be turned into grasslands and it stayed like it was since the Ice Age for a long time. Unfortunately, due to the larger amounts of nitrogen in the atmosphere due to the increased traffic, the previously infertile dunes now can sustain mosses and trees which are now cut back regularly to keep the unique landscape.
It was this empty area that the authorities picked as the location to build the huge radio station to keep in contact with the colonies in 1922. I do remember the huge aerial on the roof which was torn down in 1980.

So, I was reading the usual blogs and came across a post by Mike Tracy from Matasano (Matasano has been having some technical difficulties…this link should work once they have recovered). In the blog post Mike talks about the development of a ViewState serializer/deserializer for his WWMD web application security assessment console (please see Mike's original post for more details). Mike noted that the tools for viewing/manipulating ViewState from an application testing perspective are pretty weak, and I can't agree more. There are a number of ViewState tools floating around that do a tolerable job of taking in a Base64 encoded ViewState string and presenting the user with a static view of the deserialized object. However, no tools up until this point, save for Mike's new implementation, have allowed a user to change the values within the deserialized object and then reserialize them into a new Base64 string. Mike's tool does exactly this, and is immensely useful for web application testing. The only downside to Mike's tools is that it is built for his workflow and not mine (how can I fault the man for that). So, I decided to build an equivalent that works well for me (and hopefully for you as well).
I tend to have a web proxy of some sort running on my machine throughout the day. There are tons of them out there and everyone seems to have their personal favorite. There is Paros, WebScarab, BurpSuite, and I am sure many others. In the last few months I have been using a newer entrant into the category, Fiddler. Fiddler is a great web proxy whose only big drawback is that it is Windows only. However, at least for me, the upsides to Fiddler tend to outweigh the negatives. Fiddler has a fairly refined workflow (don't get me started on WebScarab), is stable (don't get me started on Paros), and is pretty extensible. There are a number of ways to extend Fiddler, most trivially using their own FiddlerScript hooks. In addition, there is a public API for extending the application using .NET. Fiddler has a number of interfaces that can be extended to allow for inspecting and manipulating requests or responses. Please see the Fiddler site for more details on extending Fiddler using either FiddlerScript or .NET. In particular, take a look at the development section to get a better feel for the facilities provided by Fiddler for extending the application.
Anyway, I had been thinking about writing a ViewState serializer/deserializer for Fiddler for the past month or two when I saw Mike's blog post. I decided that it was about time to set aside a little time and write some code. I was lucky that Fiddler uses .NET, as I was able to leverage all of the system assemblies that Mike had to decompile in Reflector. After a bit of coding I ended up with my ViewStateViewer Fiddler inspector. Let's take a quick tour…
ViewStateViewer seamlessly integrates into the Fiddler workflow, allowing a user to manipulate ViewState just as they would any other variable in a HTTP request. An extremely common scenario for testing involves submitting a request in the browser, trapping the request in a proxy, changing a variable's value, and forwarding the request on to the server. ViewStateViewer tries to integrate into this workflow as seamlessly as possible. Upon trapping a request that contains ViewState, ViewStateViewer extract the Base64 encoded ViewState, Base64 decodes it, deserializes the ViewState, and allows a user to manipulate the ViewState as they would any other variable sent to the server. Let's take a look at some screenshots to get a better idea of how this works.
ViewStateViewer Tour
Serialized ViewState
By Default, Fiddler lets a user trap requests and view/edit a POST body before submitting the request to the server. In this case, the POST body contains serialized ViewState that we would like to work with. Without ViewStateViewer this is non-trivial, as Fiddler only shows us the Base64 encoded serialization.
Deserialized ViewState
ViewStateViewer adds a new "ViewState" tab within Fiddler that dynamically identifies and deserializes ViewState on the fly. The top half of the inspector shows the original Base64 serialized ViewState string. The bottom half of the inspector shows an XML representation of the deserialized ViewState. In between these two views the user can see if the ViewState is MAC protected and the version of the ViewState being deserialized. In this case we can see that this is .NET 2.X ViewState and that MAC protection is not enabled.
Reserialized ViewState
Once the ViewState is deserialized we can manipulate the ViewState by changing the values in the XML representation. In this example we changed one of the string values to "foobar", as can be seen in the figure above. Once we change the value we can reserialize the ViewState using the "encode" button. The reserialized Base64 encoded ViewState string can be seen in the top half of the ViewStateViewer window. Once we have "encoded" the ViewState with our modifications, ViewStateViewer automatically updates the POST body with the new serialized ViewState string. This request can now be "Run to Completion", which lets Fiddler submit the updated request to the server.
It should be noted that if the original ViewState had used MAC protection ViewStateViewer would not be able to reserialize the manipulated ViewState with a valid MAC. While ViewStateViewer will not prevent you from deserializing, manipulating, and reserializing MAC protected ViewState, it will not be able to append a valid MAC to modified ViewState. ViewStateViewer will warn us that "Modified ViewState does not contain a valid MAC". Modified requests made using reserialized MAC protected ViewState will ultimately fail, as we don't know the machine key used to produce a valid MAC. Regardless, sometimes simply being able to view what is being stored in MAC protected ViewState can be useful during an application assessment.
In addition to MAC protection, ViewState can be optionally protected using encryption. Encryption will prevent any attempt by ViewStateViewer to deserialize the ViewState. If encryption is detected ViewStateViewer will simply show the user the original Base64 ViewState string. However, as any application security consultant can attest, there are many applications that do not encrypt or MAC protect their ViewState. ViewStateViewer is aimed squarely at these use cases.
Finally, ViewStateViewer was written entirely with deserializing/serializing ViewState 2.X in mind. While ViewState 1.X is supported, the support at this time is limited, though completely functional. ViewState 1.X, unlike ViewState 2.X, Base64 decodes into a completely human readable ASCII based serialization format (think JSON). As such, ViewStateViewer simply Base64 decodes ViewState 1.X and displays the result to the user. The user is then free to make any changes they wish to the decoded ViewState. This works exactly the same as the example shown above, except that the decoded ViewState object will not be a nicely formatted XML document. I might get around to adding true ViewState 1.X support, but the benefits would be purely cosmetic, as the current implementation has no functional limitations.
Wrap Up
ViewState is one of those areas that tends to be under-tested during application assessments, as there have been no good tools for efficiently evaluating the effects of modifying ViewState. Hopefully the release of ViewStateViewer will make evaluation of ViewState a more common practice. If you want to give ViewStateViewer a try you can download the Fiddler plugin(with source) here. Simply copy ViewStateViewer.dll into your "Inspectors" folder within your Fiddler install directory. It should be noted that this inspector is for Fiddler2, so please update your copy of Fiddler if you are out of date. Finally, this is very much a work in progress. As I found out during development, there is ton of ViewState out there that is either non-trivial to deserialize/reserialize or is impossible to deserialize/reserialize (non-standard objects being serialized for example). Maybe I'll do another blog post detailing some of these difficult/impossible to handle edge cases in a subsequent post. So, while I have done some limited testing, I am sure there are some bugs that will crop up. If you happen to find one please don't hesitate to contact me.

Rep. Spencer Bachus (R-Ala.) used football as an analogy for excessive regulation, saying if regulators ran a football team, they'd only run the ball and never pass, because it would pose too much risk.

Achieve with us.®
Autism is treatable. Primary treatments are educational (teaching those with autism ways to do things that may not come as easily for them) and compensatory (helping individuals use their strengths to make up for areas that are more difficult), as well as behavioral (assisting individuals to minimize behaviors that interfere with daily living, such as tantrums or self-injury).
Children do not "outgrow" autism, but studies show that early diagnosis and intervention lead to significantly improved outcomes. Treatment is a very intensive, comprehensive undertaking that involves the child's entire family and a team of professionals. Some programs may take place in the child's home with professionals and trained therapists and may include Parent Training for the child under supervision of a professional.
Some programs are delivered in a specialized center, classroom or preschool. Most families use one type of intensive intervention that best meets the needs of their child and their parenting style.
No single therapy works for every child. What works for one child may not work for another. What works for one child for a period of time may stop working. Some therapies are supported by research showing their efficacy, while others are not.
The skill, experience and style of the therapist are critical to the effectiveness of the intervention. Before a family chooses an intervention, they will need to investigate the claims of each therapy so that they understand the possible risks and benefits for a child.

It's not a question of if we make the playoffs. We will. And when we get there, I have no fear of anyone — Oklahoma City, San Antonio, Denver…whoever.
— Kobe Bryant
Over his 17 seasons in the NBA, Bryant could always guarantee that he'll do something absolutely amazing with the basketball just about every time he steps onto the court.
He can shake off an 0-for-10 shooting start to bury a half dozen jumpers and an opponent in a fourth-quarter blink of an eye.
He can duck and whirl through traffic, change hands with the ball and squeeze through a crack in the defense for a clutch how-did-he-do-that bucket.
He can rise up with a hand in his face, almost down his throat, and knock down an impossible 3-pointer with the sheer grace.
He can lead a 20-0 comeback in the final 6 1/2 minutes to pull out a dramatic and critical 108-106 win over the Hornets.
But no matter how many times or how emphatically he says it, what Bryant cannot guarantee is all that can happen with the teams in front of his underachieving Lakers in the Western Conference standings. For even if the Lakers put on a strong finishing kick — say 14-6 or 13-7 — they will still likely need one or more of the Warriors, Rockets and Jazz to tumble.
Can it happen? Sure. Will it happen? Nothing guaranteed. Sometimes it's not about the hunter, but the prey.
No. 6 — Warriors (35-27)
Back in those long ago days of early February when his team was threatening to compete for the No. 4 seed and home-court advantage in the playoffs, coach Mark Jackson liked to shake his head and scowl at the doubters who didn't think his Warriors could run and shoot and play defense all at the same time. Maybe those doubts were just premature. Over the past five weeks, the Golden State defense has fallen off any one of the area's picturesque bridges and sunk to the bottom of the bay. (more…)

MLS referees locked out as season about to start
NEW YORK (AP) Major League Soccer's referees and other on-field officials were locked out Friday, a day before the season openers.
The Professional Referee Organization, which manages game officials for the U.S. Soccer Federation and MLS, notified the Professional Soccer Referee Association of the lockout and said replacement officials will be used.
PRO said the union, which was formed last year, rejected a no strike-no lockout agreement that management had proposed. The sides have bargained since July without reaching a deal on a labor contract.
"Our proposal represents a significant increase above current compensation for referees and places them above the average for officials around the world," said PRO general manager Peter Walton, an English Premier League referee from 2003-12.
PRO said in the 1 1/2 years since its formation, it had increased full-time officials from two to nine and added 11 part-time officials.
The PSRA has filed unfair labor practice charges accusing the PRO of bad-faith bargaining and making threats against its members.
"We have requested a plethora of information, including financials, that PRO and MLS have refused to provide, instead demanding we take their pleas of poverty at face value," said Lukas Middlebrook, a lawyer for the union.
Replacements this weekend include former Ireland referee Alan Kelly (Kansas City-Seattle); former Greece referee Ioannis Stavridis (Philadelphia-Portland); current Puerto Rico referees Javier Santos (Salt Lake-Los Angeles) and William Anderson (Chicago-Chivas USA); former MLS referees Abbey Okulaja (New York-Vancouver) and Ramon Hernandez (New England-Houston); former MLS fourth official Jorge Luna (Montreal-Dallas); and current North American Soccer League referee Andres Pfefferkorn (Columbus-D.C.). Kelly is a veteran of five World Cup qualifiers and three Champions League matches.

While exploring Fondor I encountered what appeared to be an Executor-Class Super Star Destroyer. After a quick look on wookiepedia, I found no correlation with any known cannon SSDs. All executor classes (with the exception of the reaper which was completed before operation shadow hand) were either destroyed by 12 ABY or not constructed at Fondor.
After discussion with a few other players, we were wondering, is this simply an oversight or intentional with the possibility of seeing it implemented as a combat capable capital?

Video: "Late" (live) by Arthur Beatrice
Video and Photos by G.
On March 3, 2014, English band Arthur Beatrice made their live debut in the United States at New York's Mercury Lounge. The group has a mellow vibe to their sound and if you like The XX or London Grammar, you will like Arthur Beatrice. One of the highlights of the evening (aside from talking to The Vaccines lead singer Justin Young, who was in the audience) was their song "Late," of which a video is posted below. Just press play!

Driving safety a must in winter weather
As transportation incidents continue to be the number one cause of on-the-job deaths in the U.S., we offer driving tips to help motorists navigate safely on our roads, especially during severe weather conditions.
During inclement weather drivers are urged to be even more cautious when driving, not only for their passengers and themselves, but for fellow travelers and the thousands of workers whose vehicles are their office, such as law enforcement personnel, firefighters, emergency responders, post office workers, truck drivers, utility workers and more. Adverse weather
conditions reduce roadway safety, capacity and efficiency, and are often the catalyst for triggering congestion.
In the U.S. each year, approximately 7,000 roadway deaths and 450,000 injuries are associated with poor weather-related driving conditions. It is reported that weather plays a role in approximately 28 percent of all crashes and accounts for 20 percent of all roadway fatalities.
In addition to the intangible toll these crashes cause, the economic toll of weather-related deaths, injuries and delays is estimated at $42 billion per year.
Some of the leading causes of fatal roadway crashes are failure to keep in the proper lane or running off the road; driving too fast for conditions or in excess of the posted speed limit; driving under the influence; failure to yield the right of way; distracted driving such as eating behind the wheel, texting and/or cell phone use; operating in an erratic/reckless manner; and, failure to obey traffic signs, signals.
Motorists, please obey our traffic laws and consider and employ all safety factors before you drive your vehicle anywhere. As they say, the life you save may be your own.
