- We strongly advise you not to travel to any part of Somalia because of armed conflict, the ongoing very high threat of terrorist attack and dangerous levels of violent crime, including kidnapping.
- If you are in Somalia, we strongly urge you to leave if it is safe to do so.
- If, despite our advice, you travel to or remain in Somalia, you should be aware that the ability of the Australian government to provide consular services to Australians in Somalia is extremely limited. The Australian High Commission in Kenya is responsible for Somalia.
- If you are an Australian/Somali dual national you will be regarded by Somali officials as Somali in the first instance. You may be prevented from contacting the Australian government if you are arrested or detained and our ability to provide consular assistance may be limited.
- There is an ongoing very high threat of terrorist attack in Somalia. Westerners and those working for Western and international organisations have been targeted and killed in terrorist attacks throughout the country, including the capital Mogadishu.
- There have been several recent terrorist attacks in Mogadishu targeting foreigners and resulting in loss of life. Further attacks are likely.
- Mogadishu International Airport, where there is a large presence of Westerners, remains a high priority target for extremists.
- There is an on-going very high threat of kidnapping in all parts of Somalia, including in Somaliland and Puntland. A large number of foreigners (including aid workers, journalists and religious representatives) have been kidnapped in Somalia in recent years. A number remain in captivity. Westerners kidnapped from Kenya have also been held by armed groups in Somalia.
- Civil unrest and political tension can prompt demonstrations that may quickly turn violent. Australians are advised to avoid protests, rallies and demonstrations.
- There is no effective police force in Somalia; lawlessness, violent crime, banditry and looting are common.
- Attacks by pirates against all forms of shipping in and around Somalia's waters, the Indian Ocean and the Gulf of Aden remains a serious threat, including at some distance from the coast. We strongly advise Australians to maintain a high level of vigilance and to exercise extreme caution when sailing/boating anywhere near the Horn of Africa. See our piracy bulletin for further information.
- If you do decide to travel to Somalia, given the extremely dangerous security situation we strongly recommend that you register your travel and contact details with us, so we can endeavour to contact you in an emergency.
- Be a smart traveller. Before heading overseas:
- organise comprehensive travel insurance and check what circumstances and activities are not covered by your policy
- subscribe to this travel advice to receive free email updates each time it's reissued.
Entry and exit
Visa and other entry and exit conditions (such as currency, customs and quarantine regulations) change regularly. Contact the Permanent Representative of the Somali Republic to the United Nations (425 East 61st Street, Suite 702, New York, United States, NY10021, telephone (212) 688-9410/5046; fax (212) 759-0651) or the Embassy of the Somali Republic in Kenya (Jabavu Road, Hurlingham, Nairobi, Kenya, telephone (254) (20) 273-6618, Fax (254) (20) 273-6619) for the most up-to-date information.
A valid yellow fever vaccination certificate may be required for entry into Somalia.
Make sure your passport has at least six months' validity from your planned date of return to Australia. You should carry copies of a recent passport photo with you in case you need a replacement passport while overseas.
Safety and security
We strongly advise you not to travel to Somalia, including Somaliland and Puntland, because of the very high threat of terrorist attack. If you are in Somalia, we strongly urge you to leave if it is safe to do so. If you decide to stay, ensure that you have appropriate personal security measures in place.
Somali militants have publicly threatened to carry out attacks in all areas of Somalia, including Puntland and Somaliland. Threats have also been made against Federal Government of Somali (FGS) targets and Africa Union (AU)/AMISOM peacekeepers.
Reports indicate militants continue to plan attacks against foreign oil companies and oil fields in Puntland.
Since early 2010, there has been an increase in major terrorist attacks in Somalia. Terrorist attacks occur without warning at anytime, anywhere in Somalia and further attacks are likely. Past attacks have involved multiple, consecutive explosions and/or gunfire.
A number of recent incidents demonstrate the capacity of militants to carry out attacks in Somalia. Some examples include:
- On 27 February a car bomb targeting a tea shop near the National Intelligence Headquarters in Mogadishu killed at least 11 people.
- On 21 February 2014, a series of explosions at the entrance to Somalia's Presidential Palace killed 12 people.
- On 13 February 2014, a car bomb exploded near the entrance to Mogadishu International Airport, killing seven people.
- On 2 January 2014, a car bomb was driven into the Jazeera hotel in Mogadishu. A second car bomb exploded shortly afterwards, targeting first responders. At least 11 people were killed in the attack.
- On 8 November 2013, a car bomb exploded outside Makkah Al-Mukarama Hotel killing six and injuring many others.
- On 22 September 2013, an explosion in Bakara Market, Mogadishu, injured many.
- On 7 September 2013, in a coordinated attack, a car bomb exploded outside a restaurant popular with journalists and government workers. A suicide bombing in the resulting crowds killed 15-20 people. The same restaurant had previously been attacked in September 2012.
- On 19 June 2013, a car bomb exploded outside the UN Common Compound in Mogadishu. Armed insurgents then entered the compound, killing eight people.
Terrorists have targeted aircraft and airports. You should not travel through Somali airspace on aircraft without self-protection capabilities. Mogadishu International Airport, where there is a large presence of Westerners, remains a high priority target for extremists.
In planning your activities, consider the kind of places known to be terrorist targets and the level of security provided. Possible terrorist targets include commercial and public areas known to be frequented by foreigners such as hotels, clubs, restaurants, bars, government and foreign interests, embassies, schools, markets and shopping areas, places of worship, transport and transport infrastructure, including airports and aircraft, foreign oil companies, oil infrastructure and oil fields, residential areas, outdoor recreation events, tourist areas and historic sites.
Terrorism is a threat throughout the world. You can find more information about this threat in our General advice to Australian travellers.
Ongoing very high threat of kidnapping in all parts of Somalia
There is an ongoing very high threat of kidnapping in all parts of Somalia, including in Puntland and Somaliland. Kidnappers may be motivated by crime or terrorism.
Foreigners, including those of Somali descent, face a continuing very high risk of kidnapping in Somalia. A large number of foreigners have been kidnapped in Somalia in recent years. Many remain in captivity.
Westerners kidnapped from Kenya have been held by armed groups in Somalia.
For more information about kidnapping, see our Kidnapping threat travel bulletin.
The Australian Government's longstanding policy is that it does not make payments or concessions to kidnappers. The Australian Government considers that paying a ransom increases the risk of further kidnappings, including of other Australians. If you do decide to travel to an area where there is a particular threat of kidnapping, you should ensure you have personal security measures in place, seek professional security advice and take out kidnapping insurance.
Civil unrest/political tension
Somalia was without an effective central government after the overthrow of the Said Barre government in 1991. Somalia concluded its transitional governance period in September 2012 and a new federal government has now taken its place. While some security advances were made by the African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM) and other forces in 2012, the security situation remains tense and unpredictable across much of the country and the threat of conflict or attacks by armed groups remains high.
Security across Somalia, but particularly in southern and central Somalia and areas bordering Ethiopia and Kenya, remains unstable as a result of drought conditions. Food shortages are common and have resulted in the displacement of thousands of people. This has led to an increase in disease, an increased risk of crime and higher security threats to foreigners.
Armed conflict is prevalent in south-central Somalia, including in and around Mogadishu where intense fighting is common and moving around the city is dangerous. The security situation remains highly unstable and unpredictable.
Areas frequented by civilians, including residential areas and markets, have increasingly come under attack.
You should avoid all protests, rallies and demonstrations as they may turn violent. International events and political developments may prompt large demonstrations in Somalia.
There is no effective police force in Somalia. Lawlessness, violent crime, banditry and looting are common.
Fighting between armed gangs breaks out sporadically. Clan violence also occurs.
Anti-Western attitudes are strong in some parts of Somalia. This may result in the violent harassment of foreigners, including foreigners of Somali descent.
Due to the prevalence of HIV/AIDS, victims of violent crime, especially rape, are strongly encouraged to seek immediate medical assistance.
Money and valuables
Australian currency, credit cards and travellers' cheques are not accepted in Somalia. ATMs are not available in Somalia. US dollars are widely accepted.
Make two photocopies of valuable documents such as your passport, tickets, visas and travellers' cheques. Keep one copy with you in a separate place to the original and leave another copy with someone at home.
While travelling, don't carry too much cash and remember that expensive watches, jewellery and cameras may be tempting targets for thieves.
As a sensible precaution against luggage tampering, including theft, lock your luggage. Information on luggage safety is available from Australia's Civil Aviation Safety Authority.
Your passport is a valuable document that is attractive to criminals who may try to use your identity to commit crimes. It should always be kept in a safe place. You are required by Australian law to report a lost or stolen passport. If your passport is lost or stolen overseas, report it online or contact the Australian High Commission in Nairobi as soon as possible.
You are required to pay an additional fee to have a lost or stolen passport replaced. In some cases, the Government may also restrict the length of validity or type of replacement passports.
Local travel
Road conditions are poor and dangerous. Landmines are a danger throughout Somalia. Illegal roadblocks are common. For further advice on road travel, see our road travel page.
Piracy: While the number of attacks has recently declined, the threat of piracy in waters off the Somali coast remains. Attacks by pirates in and around Somalia's waters, the Indian Ocean and the Gulf of Aden remain a serious threat, including some distance from the Somali coast. Pirates are likely to be heavily armed.
Vessels are advised to stay more than 1000 nautical miles (1852km) from the coast of the Horn of Africa, although even this distance may not be safe, and to exercise extreme caution. Vessels are strongly advised to travel in convoy and maintain good communications at all times.
All forms of shipping are attractive targets for Somali pirates, including commercial vessels, pleasure craft (yachts etc) and luxury cruise liners. We strongly advise Australians to maintain a high level of vigilance and to exercise extreme caution when anywhere near these waters.
See our piracy bulletin and the Maritime Security Centre Horn of Africa website for further information. The International Maritime Bureau issues piracy reports on its website.
Airline safety
Airports and aircraft are possible targets for terrorists. See Safety and security: Terrorism above. You should not travel through Somali airspace on aircraft without self-protection capabilities.
Mogadishu International Airport, where there is a large presence of Westerners, remains a high priority target for extremists.
For further information, please refer to our air travel page for information on aviation safety and security.
When you are in Somalia, be aware that local laws and penalties, including ones that appear harsh by Australian standards, do apply to you. If you are arrested or jailed, the Australian Government will do what it can to help you but cannot get you out of trouble or out of jail.
Information on what Australian consular officers can and cannot do to help Australians in trouble overseas is available from the Consular Services Charter. Somalia is not a signatory to the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations which means the provision of consular services may be limited. Australians holding Somali citizenship will be regarded as Somali in the first instance and therefore may find they have limited capacity to notify the Australian Government of their situation.
Due to the security situation, the ability of the Australian Government to provide consular services to Australians is extremely limited. You should be aware that consular services may only be available remotely from the Australian High Commission in Nairobi.
You should be aware that the criminal justice in Somalia differs significantly from Australia. The enforcement of criminal laws is haphazard, and there is no uniform application of due process.
Courts operate with a combination of Somali customary and Sharia law.
Australians who engage in activities that involve local legal matters, particularly with regard to family law (divorce, child custody and child support), are strongly advised to seek professional advice prior to travel, if possible, and ensure they are aware of their rights and responsibilities.
Homosexual acts are illegal and penalties may include imprisonment. Sharia law applies in some parts of Somalia, particularly in the south. In these areas, the punishment for homosexual activity can include flogging or the death penalty. See our LGBTI travellers page.
Preaching religion other than Islam is illegal in Puntland and Somaliland and strongly discouraged elsewhere.
Penalties for drug offences are severe and may include imprisonment and heavy fines.
Some Australian criminal laws, such as those relating to money laundering, bribery of foreign public officials, terrorism, forced marriage, female genital mutilation, child pornography, and child sex tourism, apply to Australians overseas. Australians who commit these offences while overseas may be prosecuted in Australia.
Australia has strengthened legislation relating to female genital mutilation and forced marriage to protect Australian residents from being taken overseas for these purposes. The new criminal offences carry significant penalties including imprisonment of up to 25 years. For more information about these crimes, please refer to the Forced marriage and Genital mutilation pages.
Australian authorities are committed to combating sexual exploitation of children by Australians overseas. Australians may be prosecuted at home under Australian child sex tourism and child pornography laws. These laws provide severe penalties of up to 25 years imprisonment for Australians who engage in child sexual exploitation while outside of Australia.
The United Nations Security Council has imposed sanctions against Somalia, including an arms embargo. It is illegal under Australian law to provide any support related to military activities to any armed group in Somalia, without authorisation from the Australian Government. This includes engaging in fighting, funding, training or recruiting someone to fight and supplying or funding weapons or military equipment.
Local customs
There are conservative standards of dress and behaviour in Somalia. You should take care not to offend. If in doubt, seek local advice.
During Ramadan, eating, drinking and smoking between sunrise and sunset is forbidden for Muslims.
Information for dual nationals
If you are an Australian/Somali dual national you will be regarded by Somali officials as Somali in the first instance. You may be prevented from contacting the Australian government if you are arrested or detained and our ability to provide consular assistance may be limited. Our Dual nationals page provides further information for dual nationals.
We strongly recommend that you take out comprehensive travel insurance that will cover any overseas medical costs, including medical evacuation, before you depart. Confirm that your insurance covers you for the whole time you'll be away and check what circumstances and activities are not included in your policy. Remember, regardless of how healthy and fit you are, if you can't afford travel insurance, you can't afford to travel. The Australian Government will not pay for a traveller's medical expenses overseas or medical evacuation costs.
It is important to consider your physical and mental health before travelling overseas. We encourage you to consider having vaccinations before you travel. At least eight weeks before you depart, make an appointment with your doctor or travel clinic for a basic health check-up, and to discuss your travel plans and any implications for your health, particularly if you have an existing medical condition. The World Health Organization (WHO) provides information for travellers and our health page also provides useful information for travellers on staying healthy.
Medical facilities in Somalia are extremely limited. In the event of a serious illness or accident, medical evacuation to a destination with appropriate facilities would be necessary. Medical evacuation is very difficult to organise and costs are considerable.
Malaria occurs throughout the year in all parts of Somalia. Chloroquine-resistant strains of malaria are reported. Other insect-borne diseases (including dengue fever, yellow fever, filariasis and leishmaniasis) also occur. We encourage you to take prophylaxis against malaria and take measures to avoid insect bites, including using an insect repellent at all times, wearing long, light-coloured, loose-fitting clothing and ensuring your accommodation is mosquito proof.
Water-borne, food-borne and other infectious diseases (including cholera, hepatitis, meningococcal, measles and tuberculosis) are prevalent, while outbreaks of other diseases (including meningitis, Rift Valley fever and typhoid) occur from time to time. We advise you to boil all drinking water or drink bottled water, avoid ice cubes and raw and undercooked food. Do not swim in fresh water to avoid exposure to certain water borne diseases such as bilharzia (schistosomiasis). Seek medical advice if you have a fever or are suffering from diarrhoea.
There have been ongoing outbreaks of polio in countries across the Horn of Africa. Travellers should ensure they have completed a primary course of polio vaccination and receive a booster dose prior to travel. If you are unsure of your polio vaccination status, check with your doctor or travel clinic at least eight weeks before you depart.
The rate of HIV/AIDS infection in Somalia is high. You should exercise appropriate precautions if engaging in activities that expose you to risk of infection.

Additional information
Natural disasters, severe weather and climate
Earthquakes and tremors occur in Somalia.
Somalia experienced severe drought from July 2011 until February 2012. As a result, many areas of Somalia continue to suffer from food shortages and thousands of people remain displaced. This has led to an increase in disease, an increased risk of crime and higher security threats to foreigners.
The temperature in Somalia is often extremely high. The average maximum temperature can exceed 45˚C during the hottest months.
The monsoon season extends from May to October in the southwest and from December to February in the northeast.
All oceanic regions of the world can experience tsunamis, but in the Indian and Pacific Oceans, there is a more frequent occurrence of large, destructive tsunamis because of the many large earthquakes along major tectonic plate boundaries and ocean trenches. See the Tsunami Awareness brochure.
Information on natural disasters can be obtained from the Humanitarian Early Warning Service. If a natural disaster occurs, follow the advice of local authorities.

What is the depth shift operation? How to write it in OpenGL?

What is the depth shift operation? How to write it in OpenGL?
what is the depth chipping and clipping test?How to write it in OpenGL?
Please log in or register to post a reply.
By depth shift I assume you mean depth offset. It's provided by an OpenGL extension called EXT_polygon_offset, which you can look up.
For depth clipping, just set the near plane and far plane to the appropriate distances.
glDepthRange doesn't actually *clip* depths, just rescales depths from the [0, 1] range into the subrange you specify.
In fact, I know the functions about depth buffer in OpenGL as follows:
I don't know how to implement the above operation with these functions.What other functions exists?How to code?
The near and far plane are determined when you set up the projection matrix. Probably using glOrtho, glFrustum, or gluPerspective. As for the depth offset stuff, I already told you you'll have to look it up yourself, and gave you the specific search term to do so. We're not going to write code for you, if you want work done you'll have to do it yourself.
Reedbeta,thanks for your reply.
I simply want to study which function can implement the depth shift operation?
Okay, you're not listening to me. I already told you what to search for in my post earlier in this thread. You can find the function yourself easily.

Thursday, April 24, 2014
By MELISSA RAYWORTH The Associated Press
Design magazines and home decorating catalogs tend to feature sprawling backyards with big wooden decks and room for everything from decorative fountains to artificial ponds.
Drapery panels are added to this small Flynn-designed outdoor porch to emphasize the house's tall ceiling, minimize its narrow dimensions and give the space privacy. Another trick is to hang oversized art and flank seating areas with two love seats or sofas rather than chairs.
The Associated Press
Designer Brian Patrick Flynn turned a narrow 14- by 9-foot outdoor space into a full-fledged living room by adding a pergola for shade and suspending outdoor pendant lights. A planter wall provides privacy and a braided indoor-outdoor area rug creates an indoor feeling.
The Associated Press
But few of us have that much outdoor space.
Still, with a few strategic choices, you can create something truly special out of even the smallest yard or porch, says Los Angeles-based designer Brian Patrick Flynn.
Here, he and two other design experts -- small-space specialist Kyle Schuneman and landscape designer Chris Lambton -- offer advice on the best furnishings, plants and decorating strategies for making the most of a small yard, modest deck or petite patio.
"With a small outdoor space, I really like to think double duty," says Schuneman, author of "The First Apartment Book: Cool Design for Small Spaces" (Potter Style, 2012). Look for seating that has hidden storage space inside and tall planters that add privacy.
And choose items that can easily be moved, such as lightweight flowerpots or planters on wheels, says Lambton, host of the gardening design series "Going Yard" on HGTV. "It's an easy DIY thing," he says, to buy an assortment of inexpensive plastic pots and paint them to match your outdoor decor.
If planters are lightweight or on wheels, you can move them to get proper sunlight at different times of day, and rearrange them if you're entertaining guests and need more space. And, Lambton says, they can be moved inside to a sunny window or doorway when cold weather arrives.
"The easiest way to make small outdoor spaces appear smaller is to fill them with lots of pieces," says Flynn, founder of the design website decordemon.com.
"Instead, go big with sectionals, or flank perfectly square or rectangular areas with identical love seats or sofas. This not only maximizes the seating potential, but it also keeps the space from becoming too busy or even chopped up. In my outdoor living room, I used a U-shaped outdoor sectional which seats up to seven comfortably."
When arranging furniture, consider the view: If the home's exterior is more attractive than the outdoor view, Flynn says, consider positioning seats so that you'll face your home rather than looking away from it.
All three designers say your choice of plants is especially important when space is limited.
Choose plants with a purpose: "Lavender's great," Lambton says, because it's attractive, easy to grow and deters bugs. Marigolds will also help keep insects away.
Lambton also suggests putting up a trellis as a privacy wall, and planting it with colorful wisteria or climbing hydrangea. Or choose a tall holly or cypress plant in a large planter.
"Holly will be green all year round," he says, and can help transform an unappealing view.
None of these plants are hard to take care of, Lambton says. "If you're having coffee in the morning, just go out and dump a little bit of water in."
Flynn agrees, and also suggests using potted grasses, which are "low maintenance and, as they grow, they create a full wall of privacy."
If you love plants but have minimal space, add a wall-mounted garden filled with succulent plants to one wall, says Schuneman: "It's a great way to add life and texture without actually taking any real estate up on your small balcony or patio."

A handling fee of $20 (U.S. checks) or $30 (Canadian checks) will be imposed for any check returned by the bank. Return of more than one check by your bank as nonnegotiable may result in termination from the monthly payment plan. As a result, interest (0.75% monthly or 9% annual rate) will accrue on any unpaid balance.

- FAILURE TO PAY. In the event of failure of a participant to pay any monthly installment within 10 days of the due date, the payment plan will be canceled and interest at an annual rate of 9% will begin to accrue on the unpaid balance. A financial hold will be placed on the student account, preventing registration for a future semester and receipt of grades or transcripts.

Does the job well

Comments about Scott Harmon Jacket:
Ordered mainly due to high waterproofing, moderate-high breathability (+pit zips), and slight insulation all below 150 bucks for a ski jacket. 5'8" 170# was very hesitant to order up a size since I always wear mediums, but am happy I did following numerous other site reviews. The L fits perfect with enough room to layer 2 underneath on colder 0 deg days. Warmer 40 deg days just a t-shirt. Only negative is that the hood is very snug with helmet.

Well, I can't ignore that in just one week the Super Bowl becomes a super big deal around here.
I am not a fan of football. Or any sport really, to be honest.
The men in my house think otherwise. I am praying that Da Bears win so that there is peace and happiness in my home.
*UPDATED* to add that I do remember when the Bears were in the Super Bowl 20-some (gulp) years ago. We had "Bears" day at school all week and I think I used to even enjoy listening to the Super Bowl Shuffle!

EQUINOX … In many countries, today is considered the start of the new year. It's a festival based on actual earth changes, not on some cultural belief system. So, welcome in spring. Even though it may feel like winter a while longer where we live, the sun has stood still, night has equaled day, and now day begins to lengthen as we move toward summer.
8000 DRUMS … My friend and herbalist Anne Calzada who works at Orvis sent me notice about a worldwide ceremony that began two years ago at the behest of the International Indigenous University on the Spring Equinox (which many peoples consider the start of a new year). … All you need to do is play a drum either alone, or with a group today, March 21, at 11 a.m. MST. The purpose is to fulfill the Otomi Prophecy. The Otomis are descendants of the Mayan Olmec and Toltec peoples. According to a vision revealed to the Otomi Elder Sages, the day when the sounds of 8,000 Sacred Drums join together will be the beginning of the healing of Mother Earth, of all the species and the human family in order to be able to live together on the road to Sacred Peace … And they have expanded the vision to ask everyone who resonates with this vision to unify ourselves and rediscover the seeds of the Four Directions in order to reactivate cosmic energy, heal historical wounds and honor Mother Earth by respecting life, liberty and the dignity of all peoples … The first great ceremony was held March 21, 2004 at the Otomi Ceremonial Center in Temoaya, Mexico, and there will be drum circles joined around the world on the Spring Equinox continuing every year until 2012.
EARTH HOUR … My holographic artist friend Ana MacArthur of Santa Fe just wrote me about this event where millions of people around the world are joining together to make a statement about climate change by turning their lights off for an hour. It's called Earth Hour and you can sign up to participate … Earth Hour is on March 29 from 8 - 9 p.m. local time, and it looks like it's going to be really big. So far 25 cities around the world are taking part, including Atlanta, Chicago, Phoenix and San Francisco in the U.S. … Sign up by visiting
IMPEACHMENT … With everyone's energies focused on the coming elections in November, problems trying to get folks out here to argue for and against it, and the divisive nature of the issue, the county has backed off from sponsoring our own impeachment hearings. In part because of comments I got from some local citizens who felt it was more a stunt than a serious attempt to examine the issues and others who felt it was way beyond our authority … Personally, I don't agree with either point. I think it's exactly our responsibility in a democracy to hold serious discussions of governance at every level of the republic and I believe we could have had a valuable debate and clarified the issues that we read about in the papers by having local meetings on impeachment … But then again, representing the people isn't always about what I think or what I believe. It's about listening to the people. Just like we did on the wilderness issue for Naturita Canyon. If I can't convince citizens that what I believe makes sense or is good policy, then my job is to re-examine what I'm doing and see what makes sense for the majority. That's how a democratic system works, and I'm proud that I live in a country – not where I always get my way, but – where we all work together to decide what's in the common interest.

CenturyTel said Thursday it will buy Qwest Communications for $10.6 billion in stock and assume $11.8 billion in Qwest debt.
Agreement with two labor unions averts potential strike that could have disrupted service for the Democratic and Republican national conventions.
Qwest Communications International strikes a five-year deal to resell Verizon Wireless' service, ending an MVNO wireless reseller agreement it had with Sprint Nextel.
As the phone company continues to lose traditional landline customers, it is offering "less than 2 percent" of its workforce voluntary buyouts to cut costs.
The third-largest U.S. phone company is making a strong comeback, but its future could be stunted without a major wireless play.
For several hours, Facebook users have trouble accessing the service as a key ISP struggles with packet loss. Are the two related?
Qwest may have finally reached an agreement with its largest labor union after months of negotiation.
Members of two major unions at Qwest Communications International say "thanks, but no thanks" to a deal hammered out between union representatives and management.
Qwest Communications said Thursday that some of its customers were unable to make or receive long distance calls for about two and a half hours.

With the Jets scheduled to pick somewhere in the 9-14 range in April's draft, they are out of reach to draft one of the two top prospects, Geno Smith and Tyler Wilson.
There are, however, a handful of passers that could be available in the second round that may not get as much fanfare as some of the well-known players but carry plenty of pro potential in their own right. Plus, drafting a quarterback in the second round allows a regime to move on from him without it costing them their job.

INDIANAPOLIS — Fountains froze over, a 200-foot Ferris wheel in Atlanta shut down, and Southerners had to dig out winter coats, hats and gloves they almost never have to use.
A student looks out the frosted window of a school bus as it moves down 19th Street, Tuesday, Jan. 7, 2014 in Philadelphia. The record-breaking polar air that has made the Midwest shiver over the past few days spread to the East and South on Tuesday, sending the mercury plunging into the single digits and teens from Boston and New York to Atlanta, Birmingham, Nashville and Little Rock _ places where many people don't know the first thing about extreme cold.

Anton Marble and his sister, Tamika, help their mother, Jaina McGee, free her car from the snow in Marion, Ind., on Tuesday, Jan. 7, 2014. More than 13 inches of snow fell on the area as temperatures plunged to a record 14 below zero Monday night.
AP Photo/Chronicle-Tribune, Jeff Morehead
The brutal polar air that has made the Midwest shiver over the past few days spread to the East and the Deep South on Tuesday, shattering records that in some cases had stood for more than a century.
The mercury plunged into the single digits and teens from Boston and New York to Atlanta, Birmingham, Nashville and Little Rock — places where many people don't know the first thing about extreme cold.
"I didn't think the South got this cold," said Marty Williams, a homeless man, originally from Chicago, who took shelter at a church in Atlanta, where it hit a record low of 6 degrees. "That was the main reason for me to come down from up North, from the cold, to get away from all that stuff."
The morning weather map for the eastern half of the U.S. looked like an algebra worksheet: lots of small, negative numbers. In fact, the Midwest and the East were colder than much of Antarctica.
In a phenomenon that forecasters said is actually not all that unusual, all 50 states saw freezing temperatures at some point Tuesday. That included Hawaii, where it was 18 degrees atop Mauna Kea, a dormant volcano.
The big chill started in the Midwest over the weekend, caused by a kink in the "polar vortex," the strong winds that circulate around the North Pole. By Tuesday, the icy air covered about half the country, and records were shattered like icicles up and down the Eastern Seaboard.
It was 1 degree in Reading, Pa., and 2 in Trenton, N.J. New York City plummeted to 4 degrees; the old record for the date was 6, set in 1896.
"It's brutal out here," said Spunkiy Jon, who took a break from her sanitation job in New York to smoke a cigarette in the cab of a garbage truck. "Your fingers freeze off after three minutes, your cheeks feel as if you're going to get windburn, and you work as quick as you can."
Farther south, Birmingham, Ala., dipped to a low of 7, four degrees colder than the old mark, set in 1970. Huntsville, Ala., dropped to 5, Nashville, Tenn., got down to 2, and Little Rock, Ark., fell to 9. Charlotte, N.C., reached 6 degrees, breaking the 12-degree record that had stood since 1884.
The deep freeze dragged on in the Midwest as well, with the thermometer reaching minus 12 overnight in the Chicago area and 14 below in suburban St. Louis. More than 500 Amtrak passengers were stranded overnight on three Chicago-bound trains that were stopped by blowing and drifting snow in Illinois. Food ran low, but the heat stayed on.
The worst should be over in the next day or two, when the polar vortex is expected to straighten itself out. Warmer weather — that is, near or above freezing — is in the forecast for much of the stricken part of the country.
On Tuesday, many schools and day care centers across the eastern half of the U.S. were closed so that youngsters wouldn't be exposed to the dangerous cold. Officials opened shelters for the homeless and anyone else who needed a warm place.

Jon Kramer, of Bismarck, N.D., said a good way to beat the cold conditions is with a face mask called the cold avenger. Kramer uses the unusual looking face mask to break the wind as he rides his bicycle on Monday.

LINCOLN — Ninth-ranked Michigan scored four times in the top of the seventh inning to rally for a 5-3 victory over No. 16 Nebraska on Saturday.
Michigan, which had lost its first conference game this season to Nebraska on Friday, drew three walks, had two infield singles and hit only one ball out of the infield during the decisive rally. Nebraska (36-11, 13-5) had been 18-0 this season when leading after six innings.
The Huskers jumped in front 2-0 in the second inning, then extended the lead to 3-0 with a two-out rally in the fifth. Taylor Edwards doubled before scoring on senior Brooke Thomason's base hit.
Michigan trailed 3-1 when it came to bat in the seventh. After two walks, Husker ace Tatum Edwards relieved starter Emily Lockman. Edwards then walked Caitlin Blanchard on four pitches to load the bases. Two infield singles tied the game, and Lauren Sweet delivered a two-run single up the middle to give the Wolverines a 5-3 lead. Sweet's hit was her third of the game.
The loss was Tatum Edwards' first in 17 career decisions at home. Left-hander Haylie Wagner (17-1) earned the win, allowing three runs on seven hits.
Michigan (41-8, 17-1) ..........................000 001 4—5 7 0
At Nebraska (36-11, 13-5) ................020 010 0—3 7 1
W: Wagner, 17-1. L: Tat. Edwards, 22-8. 2B: UM, Blanchard (9), Sweet (4). NU, Tay. Edwards (13), Decker (8).

American Crystal Begins Lockout, Employees PicketAmerican Crystal Sugar Company's union employees have been told by management they are not allowed on the property. Workers voted against a contract offer on Saturday.
American Crystal Sugar Company's union employees have been told by management they are not allowed on the property. Workers voted against a contract offer on Saturday.
At 11:45 p.m. Sunday, people were being escorted off the property and by midnight, all union workers on the shift, and others, were on the outside looking in.
No talks were held Sunday between American Crystal and the union, but a line had been drawn and guards were in place Sunday night and again Monday, keeping workers from entering the plant.
Workers were told they were to be addressed at 7 a.m. Monday morning about the lockout, but only one phone call was made to local union president John Riskey letting the union know they were not allowed on the property.
"We're not asking for much. We're asking for a contract that doesn't put our jobs in jeopardy, we're asking to continue health coverage that won't put our families in financial ruin. If someone gets sick or injured, we're asking to continue our short-term disability coverage that we've been paying for, for nearly 30 years," union worker Melvin Morris said.
People on the afternoon shifts were expected to report to work and that as long as there is no contract, workers will continue to picket.
Since May 6, the company has had 15 negotiation sessions with the union.
It's important to remember that the workers are not on strike. They say they want to work, but the company is, in their opinion, what is standing in the way.

Actors and actresses are expected to transform themselves for the roles they play, and from time to time those transformations can be rather dramatic. Being that their job description includes becoming someone completely different from themselves, it's no surprise when on-camera performers undergo big makeovers for the parts they're playing. For her role in the highly-anticipated film adaptation of the hit musical "Les Miserables," Anne Hathaway did quite a transformation of herself.
First, Anne dropped twenty-five pounds off of her already slender frame. The "Alice in Wonderland" star also had her normally long brown locks nearly completely chopped off. While speaking to The Hollywood Reporter at a screening of the film, Anne joked that when she "looked in the mirror I just thought I looked like my gay brother." Anne's transformation for "Les Miserables" is certainly noteworthy, and here are three more actors who have shown an uncanny ability to morph themselves into an entirely different person for a role.
Tom Hanks - The Hollywood icon very famously lost a ton of weight for his performance as an attorney battling AIDS in "Philadelphia." The weight loss was so dramatic, and Hanks' performance was so riveting that he won his first of two Oscars for his work in that film. Just a few short years later, Hanks would undergo an even more stunning transformation for the film "Cast Away." For that part, hanks again lost a ton of weight, but he also grew out his hair and beard to epic lengths.
Gary Oldman - In showbiz today, there are very few actors who can play such a wide array of parts as the "Lawless" star has been able to slip in and out of. Oldman has played everyone from Dracula to Sirius Black in the "Harry Potter" films and each time thanks to wardrobe, makeup, and Oldman's nearly unmatched ability to change his vocal patterns and physicality, Gary is believable in every role he takes on.
Brad Pitt - Because of his better-than-average looks, sometimes the critics can overlook just how talented and versatile Brad really is. In one career he's played roles in films from "Fight Club" to Quentin Tarantino's "Inglorious Basterds." The contrast in those two parts alone show the range Pitt has to work with. In "Fight Club" he plays Tyler Durden, a character with multiple layers and a dark undertone, but by no means the gregarious Lt. Aldo Raine that he played in Tarantino's World War II fantasy film. Lt. Raine is a highly-stylized, over the top character who delights in the killing of Nazi soldiers with a sense of glee that is both hilarious and terrifying.

check out trailer below for Martin Scorsese-directed documentary on Beatle, George Harrison, which will debut Wednesday night on HBO.
George Harrison: Living in the Material World describes Harrison's life and plenty of fans will be tuning in – probably some famous ones too. Sting said he has always had respect for Harrison.
"I was a fan of The Beatles from day one and George Harrison's contribution to that band was immense. I think I learned a lot of guitar by just aping the riffs that he came up with and as a solo artist, he was immensely successful. He was the first Beatle to have a number one single after the break-up of the band. So he was hugely important. I think he's hugely missed."
Other folks interviewed for the big doc include: Paul McCartney, Eric Clapton, Yoko Ono and Eric Idle. Part One airs Wednesday night on HBO at 9pm while Part Two will air Thursday.

One of our readers, winonageek, commented recently on my 550 Paracord Rifle Slings. "I love the idea for an adjustable paracord sling. Would you elaborate on how you made the adjustable sling? How did you connect the paracord and webbing?"
So, I thought I'd deconstruct it for him and anyone else interested.
After making my first paracord rifle sling, I attached it to a Ruger 10-22. Hum, nice fit, look, and functionality for redundant cordage. But what if I wanted to adjust the length for, say, a shotgun, or a longer rifle for a barrel-chested friend? My wheels were spinning. Off to Wally World to find a cheap clasp.
I dug into my box of webbing and found a piece of 1 inch material about two feet in length. More digging produced a buckle thingy (Triglide) used to connect the two loose ends of webbing.
I used about 80 feet of black paracord because, well, it's the only color I had in a 100 foot hank that day.
Stuff you'll need
- Paracord – about 80 feet – I use 100 feet 'cause I hate being too short at the climax of a project :)
- 1 inch x 28 inch webbing – more length depending on how many Twinkies you've packed away on your waistline
- Buckle thingy (Triglide)
- 2 sling swivels
- 1 buckle clasp – I used a 1 inch clasp to fit my webbing
Connecting the stuff
A.) Start one end of the paracord on one sling swivel and the other end through the female part of the clasp. I loop the cord through four times on both connectors. That's unnecessary for strength, but just looks better than two loops on the connectors.
Do a basic cobra weave down the entire length starting at the clasp end. Once you reach the sling swivel, begin a king cobra weave (video link) on top of the previous cobra weave. I ran the king cobra weave about 20 inches and terminated the weave. The entire length of the paracord portion, from swivel to clasp, is about 24 inches. This measurement does not include the clasp and sling swivel.
Once you have the sling secured to the female clasp and sling swivel, it's time to attach the webbing to the remaining hardware: sling swivel #2, buckle thingy (Triglide), and the male end of the clasp. To save you the trial-and-error method and a load of frustration, follow these procedures closely.
B.) I bent about 1/2 inch of webbing and melted it to itself to create a "stop" for the triglide. That step is probably not required. Then take the buckle thingy and feed the webbing through as shown.
C.) Now you can feed the clasp (male end) and sling swivel #2 on the webbing. Make sure they both are facing out like the buckle pictured below.
D.) Take the loose end of the webbing and feed it back through the buckle – on top of the end already in the buckle. Your done. Adjusting the length is done by sliding the loose end to fit. My sling is comfortable at around 38-39 inches end to end. Remember to use longer webbing for a longer sling.
That's it. I'm sure there are better, more functional methods, but this is what I had on hand except for the clasp. I used Uncle Mike's sling swivels that I already had in my gun cleaning box. I never throw away webbing. The buckle was poached from my paracord supply bag. My total cost was under $10.00. I know. If I had to buy all the supplies upfront, it would cost more. It pays to stock up and be a scavenger.
As always, if you have a better idea for making an adjustable paracord sling, don't be shy. Please let me know how to improve this puppy.
