I made a mistake of installing or downgrading nautilus. I am using Ubuntu 13.10 32-bit. On the Launcher, when I right-click at the File, there are options for Documents, Downloads, Music, etc, making it a bit easier to open the desired location. How do I go about installing the nautilus version that originally came with the OS? Thanks.
try the following command,
it will ask for your password; enter it then nautilus should be updated. but watch the console because it might ask you if you want to use that much space on your hard drive. if it does type y for yes or n for no.

What items will I need to take care of myself "down there" after I deliver?
You're smart to realize that baby's not the only one who'll have needs after delivery... Here's what you'll need to take care of yourself.
[ ] Ice packs (in case of tearing during birth or swelling after)
[ ] 2-3 week supply of ultra absorbent sanitary pads
[ ] Hemorrhoid wipes and cream (can become necessary after labor, even if pregnancy was free of problems…sorry)

Issued at 1136 PM CDT Tue Jul 26 2016 Slow moving vort max will be over fargo at 09z and then continue to move east thru wed morning. Slow moving showers and a few t-storms will continue over southeastern ND into west central MN tonight with emphasis slowly shifting east and southeast over time into early Wednesday. With loss of daytime heating and not that much of a low level jet thinking trend overnight will be for general showers with a few t-storms with heavy rain. && .SHORT TERM...(This evening through Wednesday) Issued at 323 PM CDT Tue Jul 26 2016 Main forecast challenge will be convective chances tonight into Wednesday. As of mid afternoon, there were a few showers and tstms across the area, but the main area appears to be working into the SW FA. One thunderstorm cell near Valley City produced a funnel cloud that appears to have briefly touched down. This cell was nearly completely gone after a couple of volume scans. Now the strongest cell appears to be just southeast of Bottineau moving SE. As far as severe potential, just not looking that favorable. In the area where the funnel cloud report was, there is a weak boundary, but it has been cloudy all day. Along and north of highway 200, it has been more sunny with some CAPE. However, shear is very weak across the FA. Therefore an isolated severe storm is possible, but it will generally be weaker convection overall. SPC day 1 convective outlook keeps a marginal risk basically along and south of Interstate 94, which looks fine. Some short wave activity moving along the near zonal flow will keep some chances for additional pcpn along and south of Interstate 94 into Wednesday. .LONG TERM...(Wednesday night through Tuesday) Issued at 323 PM CDT Tue Jul 26 2016 Thursday through Friday night will see relatively quiet weather with weak 500mb nw flow...10 to 20 kts with SFC high pressure centered across the northern plains. Seasonal temperatures are expected with highs around 80 and lows in the upper 50s to low 60s. Saturday to Tuesday will have an increasing chances for convection as 500mb flow becomes southwesterly allowing PWats to rise...adding instability. Chances will be associated with any wave although timing remains uncertain. Temperatures will rise into the mid 80s to near 90 with lows in the mid 60s. && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Wednesday night) Issued at 1136 PM CDT Tue Jul 26 2016 VFR with light winds into Wednesday morning. Scattering of showers Fargo area thru the overnight as well as near GFK and BJI. Cloud bases VFR with the exception of isolated areas of MVFR cigs.

Overall crime incidents in the 94th Precinct may be stabilizing, but community members expressed concern about several high-profile incidents that happened in Greenpoint this fall.
Over the past few months, there have been shots fired outside a popular Greenpoint Avenue nightclub, a shooting in the vicinity of Cooper Park (located at 40 Debevoise Street), and just last week, employees at a local butcher shop were arrested and charged with trafficking cocaine after a year-long FBI-led investigation.
"In regards to the butcher, there still is not a lot to say," Captain Dennis Fulton said. "I don't think the area is widespread with drug activity and I commend the work the NYPD and the FBI did with their joint investigation."
Community members pressed Captain Fulton for more information about the shots fired outside Club Exit (147 Greenpoint Ave), the second incident following a shooting this past April that has prompted an increased police presence around the nightclub this year. On Friday, Sept. 26, shots were fired above a crowd that formed outside the club. While no one was hurt, area residents remain alarmed by the incident and asked police officials to continue to monitor the business.
"The owner has not been open on Friday nights and he has been one hundred percent hat-in-hand cooperative," Fulton said. "We did issue violations and we had meetings with the district attorney and members of the community around there. It's my job to make the community safer and it is the owner's responsibility to make the community safe."
Fulton said that officers still do not know what the shooting was about but that the revelers were not Greenpoint residents. The 94th Precinct will continue to deploy officers at night for additional coverage, not only at Club Exit but also at other bars and nightclubs where crowds are expected to swell for the upcoming Halloween weekend festivities.
"Halloween is a big night and we will have extra coverage at the clubs," Fulton said.
Greenpoint residents took some comfort in the crime statistics this past month, which showed that several areas tracked by the NYPD remain low. There were only nine robberies in the 94th Precinct this month, down from 12, a 25-percent drop, during the same month-long period last year. Burglaries were down 5 percent while felony assaults and grand larcenies remained the same. Grand larcenies continued to increase, up 35 percent, and Captain Fulton described some of the careless incidents that led to the thefts.
"We had a woman who went to McCarren Park and hung her purse on a tree. When she came back, the purse was gone," said Fulton.
Officers warned that professional criminals have gone into restaurants and parks, looking to take people's belongings when they are otherwise occupied or break into cars that have electronics and other valuables clearly visible inside.
"We are not on every single corner, but in these days of electronics, everyone has a cell phone. If you see someone breaking into a car or committing a theft, call 911," said Fulton.

text: Description Suggest an Edit Along much of its route the Root River State Trail follows the winding course of its namesake river for 42 miles through the Minnesota towns of Fountain, Lanesboro, Whalan, Peterson, Rushford and Houston. The paved trail is mostly level, although a section just west of Houston (around Money Creek Woods) has some steep hills for about 0.5 mile.Along the way you'll have outstanding views of the tall limestone bluffs rising above the river. Watch for wildlife, such as turkeys, deer, raccoons and birds of prey. You might also encounter rattlesnakes sunning themselves on rock outcrops or along the river bottom and trail. Please leave them be; they are a protected species. The towns along the way provide many amenities, including B&Bs, campgrounds, restaurants, museums, outfitters and interesting shops as well as historical buildings. Trail managers remind you not to leave valuables in your car while out on the trail.The trail is built upon an old railroad right-of-way that followed the river, linking the rural communities in this part of the state. The trail is popular with cyclists, hikers and inline skaters; cross-county skiing is popular during winter, and the trail intersects with a system of groomed snowmobile trails.Between Lanesboro and Fountain, the trail meets up with the 18-mile long Harmony-Preston Valley State Trail.

The jenever (gin) Museum
Since Schiedam is THE jenever city in the Netherlands, it is an absolute must to visit the jenever museum when you're there.
You can learn about the history of jenever, how it is brewed and of course you can taste some in the bar which is the final part of your museum tour...
It also has a very nice and sometimes funny collection of miniature jenever bottles. Very amusing
Prices for 2004 are 4,40 euro for adults and 3,90 for kids between 11 and 18. Kids younger then that go in for free.
It's open tuesdays till saturdays from 12-17h
Sundays and festive days the brewery museum is open form 12.30 till 17h
Address: Lange Haven 74-76, Schiedam
Phone: + 31 (0)10 -426 1291
Website: http://www.hetgedistilleerdmuseum.nl

Look at the warehouses
Everywhere in Schiedam you can find warehouses. Since there was a lot of brewery of jenever going on, a lot of ingredients needed to be stored. Nowadays many of them are converted or in the process of being converted to apartments. Many warehouses have the typical 'klokgevel' (bellshaped facade).
The 2 warehouses on the picture on the right have the names of 2 dutch provinces on their front, Zeeland and Gelderland.
De Havenkerk (Harbour Church)
This church was build between 1822 and 1824.
In the middle of the facade there is the 'all-seeing eye'. Appartently this was used to scare unruly children. They were told that the eye saw everything..
Not sure if the church is open for visits. You'll find this church almost next to the jenever-museum and i got stuck there...
De appelmarktbrug (Apple market bridge)
One of the 3 cast-iron bridges of Schiedam and this one dates back to 1860. They're the oldest examples of these kind of bridges in the Netherlands.The name Appelmarktbrug refers probably to the time when the Appelmarkt was used as such. And this bridge led to that market (which you can find before the community museum)
When ships need to pass htis bridge, it is hauled up by 2 bridge gaurds by hand. Must be a heavy job to do i'm sure. But it sure is a pittoresque sight.
Nationaal coöperatie Museum
Thsi little museum is located in a corner building. It is just behind the old-fashioned candy store where you have to go through to get to the museum. The museum msotly gives an impression of how a working-class family would live in the 1920's. It has a bedstee (cupboard bed). And it reminded me of the time i wanted one like that. My dad jsut didn't feel like making me one. And i was very disappointed..
The picture in the righthand lower corner shows an article in which the dung-cart came to empty the loo's.
The volunteers at this museum will give you all the answers to any questions you might have.
Entrance is free, but a small donation is appreciated.

Liduinabasilic in Schiedam
This Church is also called "Singel Kerk" (Girdle Church) and was designed around 1800 by Everhardus Johannes Margrij which was born in Harderwijk and lived from 1841-1891.
E.J. Margrij was a student of famous dutch architect Petrus.J.H. Cuypers who lived from 1827 - 1921. The church is richly decorated and intensly renovated from 1994.
Low ground water
There was extensive damage to the foundation poles due to the temporarily lowering of the ground water. This was done during intensive building around the church.
The church got a new foundation, this time with concrete poles.
The many 19th century paintings where cleaned and restaured. Old pictures where used to reconstruct the original mosaic floors.
This basilic has a total length of 51 meters and is 30,5 meters wide. The height of the church is 22 meters, the towers is 60 meters high.

Cobra exposition
An unusual exposition at the "Stedelijk Museum" in Schiedam from March-September 2003. The Cobra collection of this museum is significant.
March 19th 2003: I went to see a preview.
Cobra (Copenhagen/Brussels/Amsterdam) is a movement in the 50s of artists like Karel Appel, Corneille, Lucebert etc. Painters and poets. The Corba organisation only existed 3 years but all of its individual members came to fame.
To be honest, I am not an admirer, and the lack of an art historian tonight
did not really help me to adjust my opinion. It was interesting though.
Someone sent me this:
*"... The CoBrA group of which Appel was a member, rejected the academic tenets of the School of Paris in favor of a more destructive, primal aesthetic that was informed by the art of children and the art of the insane, as well as the "action painters" of Abstract Expressionism. In particular, Appel's works are characterized by a restless vitality and what he called "kinetic thought" -- the spontaneity of movement and creativity.
I was informed that the painting here would fetch over 1 million Euro if auctioned now.

Basilica of Saint Liduina
Liduina was the daughter of a poor night-watchman. At the age of 14, she fell while she was ice-skating and broke a rib. While she was recovering from this accident, she became sick of multiple sklerosis and other illnesses, so that finally she had to spend most of her life in bed. It is said, that she helped or even healed sick people visiting her, just by talking to them and giving them courage. On March 14th 1890, she was delcared Saint by Pope Leo XIII. Saint Liduina is the patron saint of the ice-skaters.
The church dedicated to her is a neogothic building, erected between 1878 and 1881. It was declared a basilica in 1990 by Pope John Paul II. The full name of the church is Basiliek van de Heilige Liduina en Onze Lieve Vrouw Rozenkrans. Sometimes, it is just called Singelkerk.

The old windmills in Schiedam
Once, over 20 windmills processed grain for the Gin production, but only five of them survive today. They are the world's tallest classic windmills. The title became a little doubtful, when in 2006 a sixth windmill of classic style was finished in Schiedam. That one is taller than the other five, but does not process grain - it is used for energy production. The five old windmills are standing along the Noordvestgracht and the Nieuwe Haven:
-De Walvisch (Westvest 229) is the only one still in regular use as a grainmill. First built in 1794, it burnt down in 1996, but was restored afterwards. A shop with different windmill-related products is located in the mill.
-De Drie Koornbloemen (Vellevest 5) is the oldest among them. Erected in 1770, it is in functional status, but only working on special ocassions.
-De (Nieuwe) Palmboom (Noordvest 34) was first built in 1781, but it burnt down in 1899. In 1992, it was rebuilt, using a part of the old base. Since then, it is called the Nieuwe Palmboom. A windmill museum is now located in it
-De Noord (Noordvest 38) is the highest of them with a height of 33,3 meters. It was built in 1803 and restored in 1962. Like "De Drie Koornbloemen", it is functional status but not working. Today, a restaurant is housed in the mill.
-De Vrijheid (Noordvest 40) was finished in 1785. This one is also functional, but only working on special ocassions.
- Architecture
The corn-exchange was built between 1787 and 1792 as a result of the growing gin industry in Schiedam. The façade of this building shows elements from baroque/rococo architecture as well as neoclassical elements. The Korenbeurs served as a corn exchange until 1918, in 1952 it was restored to have a new function. Today, the building is used by an interior designer.

Grote of Sint Janskerk
The main church of Schiedam was built from 1335 on, replacing a smaller building from the 13th century. Some alterations took place in the mid-15th century, especially after 1428 when a fire devastated a large part of the city. This included a new part in which later the city scale office moved in. Today, that part is used as parochial office, but still has the "Waag" (scale) titles.
Address: Lange Kerkstraat 37
- Architecture
The Zakkendragershuisje is the guild house of the harbour workers responsible for carrying the goods. Its small belltower on the top makes it look like a church. The Zakkendragershuisje was built in 1725 an in use as such until the beginning of the 20th century.
Directions: Oude Sluis, close to the Korenbeurs

Windmill De Drie Koornbloemen
Schiedam is world wide known for its windmills. These are the tallest ones ever built.
This tall one is the eldest one named "De Drie Koornbloemen",
or The Three Corn-flowers.
Built in 1770 ... for burning malt and corn.
This windmill has been used, too, for bakers, for mahogany, for rice, for stone ...
The last time the windmill has been renovated was in 1999, and the windmill still turns its wings several times a week.
The miller Rens Franken and his wife Cobie live here for free to keep the windmill running.

The view is adorable and I am sure you'll enjoy the very friendly sphere.
A walk along the canals is even more historic when walking to the 3 museums which are very close to each other and, close to the nice little center of Schiedam. It is funny to see the modern cars within the rustic canal picture ...

I have been involved with Interfaith Senior Programs for over 6 years, most of that time as a Board Director.
I have been involved with a number of nonprofit organizations and have served on many Boards. This organization is among the best.
It has an important mission. Seniors are a valuable asset in our communities. Yet seniors also are among our most frail and some have transportation and other needs. ISP taps into the resources of our senior population and applies it to a number of organizations, schools, and seniors in need.
It is connected to the community and aware of its needs. Its advisory boards consist of past Board Directors, community leaders, seniors and clients. It is connected to over 70 congregations.
It has excellent leadership at the staff and Board level. Its Executive Director, Kathy Gale, is widely respected in the community for her vision and leadership skills. The Board is among the most active that I have been on.
Most importantly, it achieves results and has made a significant difference in this community. There are pages of testimonials from seniors, family members, professional and students.

The Play: The first of David Freese's two two-run hits, a fourth-inning double to left that put the Cardinals in front to stay.
The Setup: The Phillies jumped to a 2-0 lead after three batters, but the Cardinals answered with one in their half of the first. Lance Berkman opened the bottom of the fourth by drawing Roy Oswalt's first walk of the game. Matt Holliday was hit by the first pitch he saw. Berkman then went to third when Yadier Molina flew out to right.
The At-Bat: Freese didn't wait long, turning on an Oswalt curveball on the first pitch and lining it into the leftfield corner. Berkman scored easily and Holliday was able to beat the high relay throw from Jimmy Rollins.

Okay I've just spent a few days doing output enablement on -ati, since I got an rv730. I decided to try and get tv-out up and going again.
I've pushed a branch to the main xf86-video-ati repo called "atom-tvout"
Please test this on any r500 -> rv7xx cards if you are interested in TV-out support on this range in open source drivers.
It mostly uses atombios to set the cards up, with one exception for the scaler on the R500 cards which I'm discussing with ATI.
I've also added and tested DCE3.2 output support to master in the past day or two, I just need to add the official PCI IDs for all the rv7xx variants.

WACO (August 16, 2013)—Waco's landmark Cottonland Castle at 33rd Street and Austin Avenue is vacant and in disrepair, but a projective buyer says he would like to restore it.
The 120-year-old home has deteriorated so much in recent years that neighbors are complaining to the city that it's unsightly and unsanitary conditions.
Linda Baker says she started putting out signs to protest the condition of the home,
"It's going to fall down if something is not done soon," she said.
City of Waco Code Enforcement Inspector Chris Randazzo said he has sent letters to the owners to clean the place up.
"You see the fallen brush and the high grass, neighbors have been really upset and would kind of like to see some action," he said.
The inside of the house is in shambles and prospective buyer Dan Davis says it would take hundreds of thousands of dollars to restore it.
The house, on which work began in 1890 when the cotton economy was flourishing, was sold unfinished to a cotton broker in 1906 and wasn't fully completed until 1913.
It became the focal point for Waco's Castle Heights neighborhood.
"I don't think anybody wants to see it destroyed or harmed in any way we would just like to see it fixed up and taken care of," Randazzo said.
The owner of the property reported to News 10 that development on the property had been delayed due to an ongoing legal battle, and that every effort is made to ensure the property is well-maintained.
The owner has a court date planned for next month to resolve the legal issue.

Montgomery County homeowners who have a limited income or are at least 70 years of age may be eligible for property tax credits that will limit the amount of taxes they must pay. One application will determine eligibility for three programs -- the Maryland Homeowners' Property Tax Credit Program; the Montgomery County Supplemental Property Tax Credit; and the Montgomery County Senior Property Tax Credit.
Property owners who have applied for a tax credit previously and been denied are encouraged to apply again, since the tax credit programs have changed and been improved over the years, and your income situation may have changed.
Homeowners who file and qualify before May 1 will receive the tax credit directly on their annual tax bill. Those who file later -- but before the September 1 deadline -- will receive either a "revised" tax bill that reflects the credit amount or a refund if the taxes have already been paid in full.
To apply for these tax credits, homeowners must fill out one application form each year. Application forms are available by calling the Maryland State Department of Assessments and Taxation (SDAT) at 1-800-944-7403, or by downloading the form and instructions from the SDAT website at www.dat.state.md.us/sdatweb/htc.html.
See more about the tax credit in English or Spanish.

MONTROSE, Pa. (AP) — Commissioners in a rural Pennsylvania county have passed a resolution saying any new laws restricting gun rights won't apply there.
The Times-Tribune of Scranton reports Susquehanna County officials say new gun laws passed just over the state line in New York prompted them to act. The resolution passed Wednesday says any new federal act, bill, law, rule or executive order that infringes on Second Amendment rights shall be "unenforceable" in the county.
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo recently signed legislation that restricts residents to purchasing ammunition magazines that carry seven bullets.
Republican Commissioner Michael Giangrieco says the county's resolution is an important statement to make in response to the New York laws and current proposals in Pennsylvania. No one at the meeting came out in opposition to the resolution.
Finally People with common sense, not a bunch of wild liberal PC politicans who pass feel good laws and rules.to get attention.
Who'd have thought the impending civil war will be about guns and gun rights? I guess we now know what's important enough to people to get them active and, pardon the pun, up in arms.
Obama and the Brady Bunch should step carefully.

I don't think it's any surprise that TWC removed WTMJ. They had to do so because the contract had lapsed. I suspect that had TWC continued to carry WTMJ after the contract expired, they would have exposed themselves to possible legal or financial issues. WTMJ isn't going to sit idly by and allow TWC to carry their station without a contract in place. In the end, it's an irrelevant point.Hide replies
The deadline had been extended by mutual agreement. When there was no longer a mutual agreement TWC pulled the plug on WTMZ

I'll bet you a set of "rabbit ears" that Ryan in 2016 gave the Thumbs Down to any uncomplimentary comment toward a Republican.
Of course he does. And he can enhance his rabbit ears with some tin foil from his hat.
The reality of what they are REALLY negotiating over seems to be elusive. I saw some explanation, apparently used by JS saying that TW receives something like 58 cups of coffee and what they are asking for "in addition" amounts to a half a cup. Wow this is strange terminology if you ask me. While they probably think this was a way of putting it terms most people could understand, I think most people would rather know EXACTLY what they are asking for and what is being paid to TW. How about the actual amounts instead of these silly analogies.
Having been a Time Warner Customer for many years, I know how utterly CHEAP they an be. I remember about 5 years ago when they could agree with Channel 11, WLUK, on new terms and at least a couple of Packers' REGULAR SEASON GAMES were NOT seen by thousands of customers. That, to me, was beyond belief that TW would allow that to happen. They did end coming to an agreement, which is always the case, so it wasn't necessary to prevent so many people from seeing Packers games.
They were the LAST, to my knowledge, of the major carriers to get on board with carrying the Big Ten Network. All other major carriers had an agreement while they still held out. Again, thousands of people were prevented from seeing Badger football because of this. They are one CHEAP @$$ company and I am glad to be rid of them.Hide replies
"when they could.....NOT...agree with Channel 11
Time Warner was also the last carrier, to the best of my knowledge, to carry the NFL Network, They held out for YEARS on this one which was shameful. I used to needle a friend of mine every chance I got about him still not getting the NFL Network while I could. Of course they eventually gave in ,but it took them years to do so.
Crewchief, you are right that this is not the only blackout I recall. There have been tough negotiating tactics by Time Warner for years...I know I've seen other ads by stations.
They may be cheap when it comes to these negotiations, but they sure don't pass that on to their customers. Prices keep going up, it's really just a matter of time before people have just had enough and begin to leave in droves. They COULD fix it and make it a value worth having, but they WON'T because that would affect profits.
What TWC should do is show WTMJ's programming, but black out the commercials until they reach an agreement.Hide replies
That would be illegal.
Ellis has always been a fool and sticks his nose in things where it doesn't belong. While its true he is a Republican, he typifies the classic example of a "Stupid Republican".. You can always count on him to get it wrong. It's a matter for the private sector and politicians seldom offer good outcomes when they meddle in private affairs.. The TWC constituancy will figure out the value of Journal Broadcasting assets. Beyond the Packer games, it would be interesting to see what TWC customers think is the real value of the services provided by Journal Broadcast.. While not a fan of TWC services, I can't say much for Journal Broadcasting assets being a necessary part of my day.Hide replies
Ellis and Grothman. Dumb and Dumber.
If Ellis sent them a video of him screaming like an old Warlock and breaking a gavel, TWC MIGHT be intimidated into coming to an agreement sooner....LOL
This doesn't affect me. I DON'T watch TV. I've had enough commercials to last me a lifetime. The stations can stick them, you know where.Hide replies
Commercials are made for idiots. It's one lie after another.
If you miss the channel, vote with your pocketbook: get a differnt carrier. Which is what I think I am going to do. Can anyone reccomend an alternative where I can also get my internet service and land line phone from?Hide replies
You could also vote with your rabbit ears and just plug in a digital antennae. They are like $15.
There are a handful of other carriers, but I suggest AT&T Uverse. Service seems dependable with many options and in my opinion, it is on the cutting edge of technology..
You can encounter a lot of signal issues with rabbit ears. Why should people have to go to additional expense and possible degradation of picture quality because they can't come to an agreement? Everyone knows that they will eventually come to an agreement. This is nothing but drama now.
As usual, you come up with ODD-BALL suggestions.
Not odd-ball, Crewchief, and I rarely agree with RyanIn2016.
Cable is becoming a dinosaur. Your best bet is to make two one-time purchases - a digital antenna, like Ryan suggested, and a Roku, Google Chromecast or similar product to access your wireless internet. Then invest in two monthly products - Netflix and HuluPlus (total less than $20 a month for both combined). Pretty much all the TV you'd want to see is available with those two services.
Heck, you don't even need to get the digital antenna if you don't mind watching shows a couple days later (or don't watch the news and/or sports). All the broadcast networks (NBC, CBS, etc.) have their entire content available for free on the websites and typically have the last 3 - 4 episodes available (Fox is different, and only has episodes available for a couple weeks)
My guess would be that cable networks, such as TNT, Bravo, etc., will soon have monthly subscriptions available, too, so that you can just get the channels you want streaming right to your TV.
Comments Today, yeah, I'm sure you are a bastion of objectivity.
It appeared to me that Ryan in 2060 was suggesting what MOST people recognize as a very TEMPORARY measure. That is buying a cheap "rabbit ears" antenna. This reminded me of exactly what Time Warner Cable pushed about 5 years ago when they couldn't come to an agreement with WLUK TV in Green Bay.
As I said in another post, this was a horrible situation with thousands of people unable to view REGULAR season Packers' games. That's about as grave a situation as is possible in Wisconsin. The outrage over this was well beyond anything I've seen of this type.
I resorted to using "rabbit ears" and was able to view the games, but the picture quality was poor. Yes, it was better than nothing, but it was of poor quality. I live approx 50 miles from their transmission tower.
What you seem to be omitting here are the REALITIES of such a situation.Not everyone lives within a short distance of a transmission tower. Many people don't live within a relatively short distance will get poor reception or perhaps none at all. You simply can't ignore this REALITY. To not take something like this into consideration is being negligent.
It certainly did NOT appear that Ryan was advocating some NEW type of service. I'm familiar with what you are saying, but you need to realize that this type of setup is NOT what many people desire. If someone looks into this type of alternative hookup and wants to save money, that's fine. However, as I said, this just wouldn't be acceptable for many people.
If you want to suggest an alternative way of watching TV, that's great, but you NEED to realize this isn't for everyone. Surely being the bastion of objectivity that you are, you wouldn't attempt to tell others how they should change their viewing habits. You may not want to admit it, but this type of setup has some real limitations
Rabbit ears with a choice of 35 some stations has always worked fine with us. We live about 30 miles W of Milwaukee and have not experienced any transmission issues using a good antenna. We watch some TV, are out and about some, or just enjoy quietness. We do love the Packers! I'm saving for retirement and, to me, cable is not worth the monthly cost.
ATT UVerse. I recently switched to TWC and the Wi-Fi internet is terrible-not to mention getting them to actually attempt to properly fix it. I will be switching back to ATT Uverse for this and maybe the phone as well.
While I don't disagree with Time Warners postition in this disupute. Time warner is one of the worst companies for customer service. I have direct tv and anytime their has been a dispute they will issue some sort of credit if you call them.
If you call time warner, good luck getting anything more than a $5.00 credit on anything and it takes a lot of arm twisting to get them to do that. Last major cable last satellite company to get the nfl and big ten networks. Its all about the short term profits with time warner. They do a lousy job of taking care of current and long time subscribers.
One day I can only pray that google or even verizon fios will come to town with internet service and I will be rid of time warner for my internet too.Hide replies
I totally agree that trying to get a credit out of Time Warner is ridiculous. My phone service was disrupted for 2-3 days and they literally thought that "sorry" was enough, until I specifically asked for a credit. Even then, they would only offer 2 days, because I wasn't 100% certain about the third. I just saw in the fine print that my bill is going up and tried to call to ask about different deals--and they disconnected me while transferring me to someone who was authorized to tell me about deals. It is a ridiculous customer service model.
Their training consists of teaching employees how to apologize profusely, and nothing else.
I find this article self serving. So what that they rejected an extension offer. What is the increse that JC wants for re-upping and why do they think they deserve it?Hide replies
"So what"
Yeah, I'm sure the people NOT receiving NBC programming aren't saying "so what." If they can't view Packers' preseason football and NBC Sunday Night football, I am confident that " so what" won't be the most common expression being uttered.
In all fairness, I suspect the fact that WTMJ and their affiliates, like TV-26 in Green Bay, becoming "The Official Packers Station" might some bearing on their stand on this issue. I'm sure they feel they have more bargaining power because of this.
In the end, doesn't it boil down to who needs who the most? It really isn't that much money, as WTMJ insists it only a few cents. So why doesn't WTMJ want to pay for being broadcast? I say that WTMJ will cave.Hide replies
I agree... I think WTMJ will cave in because their viewership numbers must be in a free fall from this. Some of us are forced to use TWC (condo won't allow antenna's or satellites).... I feel like TWC is a monopoly in some cases that should be stopped by the FTC !
Bet you love your WE Energies bill then.

Marine Biologist
A marine biologist loves the water, loves the animals of the water, yet some must deal with the effects of people who don't love the water. It can certainly be frustrating when you put so much effort into a conservation project to find out that some business decision means you've got another potential crisis to reverse.
Stress is when you've spent years restoring marshland only to hear that City Council has approved the construction of a nuclear waste dump right next to your beloved lily pads.
Stress is when you discover that the federal bureaucrats have eliminated the entire budget for protecting endangered marine mammals.
Researchers are likely to get stressed when data is confusing or inconclusive. Professors get stressed right around the time they need to submit their research proposals to the big wigs who determine their research budget. And, those at marine-related organizations certainly stress over how to convince the public and lawmakers of the importance of conservation efforts.

iOS 9.1 Is Out – Do Not UpdateAuthor: BigBoss // Category: Jailbreak, News
iOS9.1 is out. Do not update or you will lose your jailbreak and the ability to jailbreak at this time.Continue Reading ..>>
iOS9.1 is out. Do not update or you will lose your jailbreak and the ability to jailbreak at this time.Continue Reading ..>>
Pangu has been released for ios9-9.02 and works very well. This is the time to update your devices and get onto ios9 before apple puts out another update and blocks the jailbreak.
Remember that many tweaks are still being updated for ios9 and a lot has changed internally so not everything may work. But at the very least, you should get your device onto ios9 while you can.Continue Reading ..>>
iOS9 is out today. Lots of neat features but no jailbreak yet. So if you want to keep all your cool jailbreak features, do not upgrade yet. Stay tuned for when iOS9 is jailbroken and ready to go.Continue Reading ..>>
The Taig Jailbreak is out for iOS 8.3 As of right now, most tweaks from Cydia will not yet work but we hope this is solved later today.
As of this moment I suggest holding off on the jailbreak until things are more stable.Things are pretty stable now so this is probably a good time to get updated and onto iOS8.3 if you ever feel the need to do so in case Apple puts out an update and closes the jailbreak holes.
Likewise, if you plan to stay on 8.1 or 8.1.2, that's probably ok also.Continue Reading ..>>
iOS 8.1.3 is now out and it patches jailbreaks. If you are jailbroken then do not upgrade or you will lose the chance to jailbreak.Continue Reading ..>>
Sorry for the late post. But just to confirm, both these firmwares have been jailbroken. Taig http://www.taig.com/en/ has taken care of the latest firmware.
As of right now, all iOS8 firmwares are jailbroken. Please make sure you don't update beyond 8.1.2 in the near future if you want to keep your jailbreak until you hear otherwise.
Finally, if you're still on iOS7, now is the time to get to iOS8 while the signing window for firmware is still open by apple – before they release an update and close you out.Continue Reading ..>>
Updated: IOS 8.1.1 and 8.1.2 jailbroken click here for details. Looks like apple rolled out 8.1.1 today. Jailbreak is patched so avoid updating to 8.1.1 for now. !function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],p=/^http:/.test(d.location)?'http':'https';if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src=p+'://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js';fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document, 'script', 'twitter-wjs');lang: en_USContinue Reading ..>>
Pangu was released a week or two ago. Now after several bug fixes, it's all pretty stable and easy to use. This is the time to get your devices onto 8.1 and jailbreak. You'll want to do this soon so you dont miss out. When apple releases the next update, we can expect the jailbreak to be patched and the restore window for iOS8.1 to be closed.
There are a couple small issues with the jailbreak. The first is if you jailbreak then restore your backup (in that order), you will have to reinstall cydia *before* you reboot. If you don't you're device may not start up and you'll have to restore. So if you recover your back up prior to having cydia on the device, you're ok. This should also apply if you decide to reset all settings. Then you'll need to reisntall cydia before you reboot.
Reinstalling cydia in the above example is as simple as going into cydia, searching for cydia installer, tapping modify, reinstall.
As far as tweaks, a lot of them are working pretty well now. A lot of stuff still needs to be converted, but much of the core libraries are working such as activator, flipswitch, substrate itself, winterboard (as long as you avoid summerboard mode).Continue Reading ..>>
Pangu released a new jailbreak for ios 8/8.1 today. But it has some issues so please hold off until they get worked out:
Issues so far:
1) Occasional locks on apple logo on boot
2) SMS sending of images broken
3) Cydia not installed, have to use ssh to install manually.
The jailbreak will get sorted out over the next few days and we will post an update when it's good to go.
Also, like all major updates, tweaks will need to be rewritten to support ios8. The current developers have not had time with ios8 to do this yet so even when the jailbreak is stable, you may want to hold off for a couple weeks.Continue Reading ..>>
iOS 8 is due to be released sometime today (Wednesday, Sept 17), so jailbreakers should avoid updating until a new jailbreak is released.
If you feel the need to update anyway, remember that it will be a one-way trip to iOS 8, and there might not be a jailbreak available for iOS 8 for a long time. You will not be able to downgrade or restore to iOS 7 after upgrading to iOS 8.Continue Reading ..>>
Pangu was released a couple days ago to handle jailbreak for ios7.1-7.1.1 devices. The jailbreak seems to be working alright.
Personally, I suggest just staying on 7.0-7.0.6 for now as the 7.1.1 update is not really worth it for the effort. However, if you think you need to get to 7.1.1 you should do so soon. Apple is expected to release 7.1.2 any day which will close the signing of restores of 7.1.1.
For those having issues in a boot loop after the jailbreak you might try shining a light at the light sensor. (http://www.reddit.com/r/jailbreak/comments/294wob/jailbreak_with_pangu_and_bootloop_try_this_fix_oo).Continue Reading ..>>
For those of you that recently jaibroke and found some errors regarding cydia dependencies such as substrate v0.9551, your issue is caused by bad timestamps on the evasi0n repository payloads. The solution is to clean it out with icleaner:
Use iCleaner to clear out your repo data, and then everything will reload properly. Here's what you do:
1. install iCleaner (free)
2. Turn off everything in iCleaner
3. Turn on the "Cydia Sources" switch
4. Hit "Clean" on the top right
5. Go back into cydia, tap the changes tab, tap 'refresh' at top left, and wait for data to download and reloading data to finish
6. Uninstall iCleaner (optional)
Now that iOS7 has been jailbroken, it is advised that anyone that ever wants to be on iOS 7.0.4 *ever* gets there very soon. Speculation is that Apple will release an update soon and when that occurs, they will stop signing 7.0.4. Users will have a limited time window to get onto iOS7 and be jailbreakable. Further, reports are that evasi0n only runs on a freshly restored 7.0.4 rather than one a device that got to 7.0.4 via "software update". So if you have not done so yet, now is the time to backup your device in iTunes, restore it to a fresh 7.0.4, and keep it on ios7.0.4.
For those that have jailbroken, keep in mind that some tweaks may not work. And every tweak needs to be recompiled to work on ARM64 (iphone 5s) so many things installed may simply not show up until updated.Continue Reading ..>>
Mobile substrate (now called cydiasubstrate) has been updated and released for the ios7 jailbreakers. With this, developers can now start compiling and testing their tweaks on arm64 devices such as the iphone 5s. Every tweak will need to at least be recompiled for arm64 support. Something like sbsettings needs a full recompile plus every toggle needs to be recompiled. Several tweaks still aren't ready. If a tweak does not support arm64 on your 5s type device, it simply wont load or do anything.
Developers wanting to upgrade their tweaks to ios7 can follow this awesome guide. You need a MAC running xcode 4.4 and xcode 5.0.2: http://iphonedevwiki.net/index.php/Updating_extensions_for_iOS_7Continue Reading ..>>
So an iOS7 jailbreak was released today. However, it was done without working with the community. So almost none of the normal jailbreak material are ready (cydia, mobile substrate, any of the tweaks you want to install). Since none of us developers have had any time with ios7 yet, we are all starting our work now. So it will be a while for everything (anything) to be working.
Also, for Chinese users, the jailbreak app installs something called "Taig" (a chinese appstore?) and you have to make sure to check the "cydia" box during jailbreak installation to get cydia installed.
Supporting the iphone 5s is going to be a larger task for most of us developers. The device runs 64bit arm, so unlike in the past, most tweaks have to be recompiled using a mac.
I strongly suggest that you download the jailbreak but do not install it yet for a couple weeks while developers update things. I suggest that you also do not upgrade your device keeping it at 7.0.4.Continue Reading ..>>

Harbaugh suggested that Matthews may no longer be viewed as so tough around the league after that.
"I think that young man works hard on being a tough guy, he'll have some repairing to do to his image after the slap," Harbaugh said.

By Sarah: "It is based off of the cover of Cinder. I did not use an actual pumpkin but a circle of orange construction paper lightly creased into a square. I cut out the shapes with an exacto knife using a template of a printed out cover. Then I cut out colored tissue paper (it is hard to see in the dark) and used watered glue to paste the tissue on from the backside. To finish it off I put two fake candles inside and tuned off the lights." (Follow link to see Scarlet & Cress too.)
By Izamar Barrera: "This pumpkin is made out of glass and I decorated it to make it look edgy and punk-ish. The blue glow makes it look futuristic while it also gives it an eerie Halloween vibe. The wheels and the frame on the bottom make it look as if this really is Cinder's futuristic pumpkin turned "car"-riage and she is going to speed away any second! If you would like to see more- please see these individual pictures on the board."
By Kaede: "It says Cinder's Castle. My camera sucked and I used a shiny silver sharpie so it didn't turn out so well. But if you squint really hard at the screen, I'm sure you can tell what it says...sort of. Also, the yellow explosion in the corner? It's meant to be there. Promise. It is not a mess of glitter, 'kay. And then there's the black C shaped thing-y on the outline of the "pumkin". It's suppose to stand for Cinder. Oh, there's lots of moons on the picture."
By Kathryn: " This is a jock'o'lantern version of Iko!!! I made her out of a squash instead of a pumpkin to get that robot-like shape, and I think it turned out pretty cute ~~ Iko was one of my favorite characters in Cinder. Marissa had a very creative take to everything she did, and my all time favorite Iko scene is when she comes in on Cinder wearing a string of Adri's pearls and lipstick smeared across her face where her lips would be."
By Maddilin, inspired by this quote from Scarlet: "Kai's attention fell from the pictures and snagged on the small metal foot that sat on the corner of his desk, its joints caked with grease. Like a revolving wheel, his thoughts came full-circle yet again. Linh Cinder."
Bianca Nadine San Pedro: "when I think of Cinder I think of Cinderella and when I think of Cinderella I think of the CARRIAGE! I mean seriously an ordinary pumpkin being turned into a magical carriage is flippin amazing. So I got a pumpkin and with a flick of my wrist Bippidy Bobbity Boom! My very own pumpkin carriage! I just hope this would've made Cinderella AND Cinder happy!"
By Samantha.
By Whitney: "I imagined Cinder watching her stepsisters carving pumpkins every year, while she had to clean all the pumpkin guts off the floor (yuck). I could envision her wanting to take part in the festivity but not being permitted to. But knowing Cinder has a bit of a rebellious streak, I thought she would defy her stepmother by making her own pumpkin downstairs in the basement. She would make it by compiling any of the spare parts she wasn't using..." (Click for more details and pictures...
By Ada: Cinder inspired paper mache Pumpkin Carriage. Silver wires and rings for Cinder's futuristic world, a steampunk hat carriage top for her mechanic representation, and retained some traditional twists. I wanted to mainly incorporate 3 things for my entry: a pumpkin more fit for the futuristic world, a symbol for Cinder, and a familiarity to her tale. :)
By Penny Yoke: "This is supposed to be Iko, in a new body specially for Halloween! Iko has an oversized pumpkin head in Halloween style, with a pretty long stalk that I tried to arrange like a girl's hair. Iko has a undersized body with two hands, that looks cute with the huge head. Iko's hand has a red ribbon, from Peony. At the bottom, there's a pair of shoes, since I think Iko would have liked to have shoes for her new body." (Click for more details.)
By Courtney Wicks. "I had a lot of fun carving/shaving this pumpkin~ First time shaving a pumking, too! Ahh, this is one of my favorite book covers, and kind of perfect for a pumpkin (Cinderella and all, right?) One of my all-time favsies :D" (Click through for the extended process.)
By Nobonita Chowdhury: "I know,it's a bit off topic but hey,you're the one who said to be creative!LoL! :)"
By Elie / eliesmithbooks
By Jackie Chapman, based on the Italian cover. Follow to her pinboard that includes photos of the whole process, and other preliminary concepts.
Cinder's Metal Pumpkin by Rachel Scott. "This is Cinder's carriage, except all future-ized. The pumpkin is a giant metal sphere, and instead of wheels, it has treads, like the androids in Cinder's universe. The thingy on the door is the Lunar Crest."
By Katie @ Inkk Reviews. To see it from another angle click: http://inkkreviews.blogspot.com/2012/11/the-great-lunar-chronicles-pumpkin.html
By Allison D. "If you look closely, you can see that the pumpkin is made out of the letters of Cinder. I also included a moon, hence Lunar Chronicles, and a slipper for Cinder."
By Loie: "Here is my pumpkin-inspired interpretation of Cinder's gasoline car :) I put so much food colouring in the icing that it is probably not edible any more but it was a lot of fun to make."
**Click through for more pics and to see it all lit up.** Lily Zheng Gb: "This is my lantern pumpkin. Consider it a real pumpkin made out of paper, painted red to resemble the lunar eclipse, orange bands for pumpkin color's sake, silver for the dress and Pearl which is also what the dots at the bottom are. Then there is a quote in English and some Chinese characters. Then inside is a red shoe on a cream cloth pillow and then hanging over it is a flower-shaped candle on a "stem" as the handle...

Rift "free weekend" approaches
This weekend Trion Worlds has made Rift free play to all, from the 14th – 16th. Meaning new players can get a chance to see what it's like, but more importantly, old players can be drawn back in.
While it may serve as a good introduction for new players, the move seems more targeted at those current players who have lingered at level 20 in the "lite" mode, as described by PCGamesN.
Many players have opted to stay and play in their PvE zones as opposed to forking out cash to go past level 20 and beyond the "lite" version. This weekend will allow those players and new ones to experience what it's like after level 20, but characters will not be able to be used past this weekend in Rift lite.

It's good, but very little actually happens.There is very little character development, the plot is non-dynamic and too focused on what characters are thinking about the future, and the mecha battles are short and the outcome is always the same.

But only hints. The series drops all kinds of little hints and references to what may well be a rich and fascinating backstory, yet makes good on not one ounce of it.

Above and Beyond the Stars.So I have been in a serious rut for the past few months looking for something new to watch. After browsing the library I stumbled upon this show.

(Also, apply the same research to terms like socialist, communist, Nazi, etc. If you don't understand a word, don't use it.)
