Summit Success
The LocalGov Digital Service Standard Summit saw 150 people working in central and local government come together at City Hall, London on Monday 19 September, for the launch of the Local Government Digital Service Standard.
Attendees and online viewers saw presentations from people leading the way in delivering better, cheaper services for government and local authorities to a Digital Service Standard.
From the the Government Digital Service (GDS) Olivia Neal spoke about being the change, Kit Collingwood-Richardson talked about her work at the Department of Work and Pensions, and from Local Government Matthew Cain and Paul Ward spoke about how they're transforming service delivery by using the Standard at Buckinghamshire County and Coventry City councils.
The day was supported by the Mayor of London, and Natalie Taylor of the GLA spoke about her experience of delivering digital, both at a national and city wide level.
Phil Rumens, Co-Chair of LocalGov Digital said "When we first talked about putting on an event to launch the Service Standard I thought it would be 20 people in a dingy council meeting room. It's testament to the amount of interest in doing digital properly in local government that 150 people gathered on a Monday morning in City Hall".
The afternoon saw five hands-on workshops specific topics relating to the Standard, with civil servants working in central government digital teams donating their professional time to help out councils.
Olivia Neal, Head of Standards Assurance and Technology Policy at the GDS wrote about the event "I hope that all of these innovative, brilliant, tenacious people took away from the event the understanding that they are part of a wider movement of change, which will support them".
Councils to already signed up to implementing the Standard include
- Buckinghamshire County Council
- Camden Council
- Coventry City Council
- Devon County Council
- Gloucestershire County Council
- Oxford City Council
- Surrey County Council
- West Berkshire Council
If you're in Local Government, you can sign up to the Local Government Digital Service Standard here and think, do and share with other councils to create better, cheaper, services.
The event was notable as one of few on government digital, where the majority of the panel of speakers were women.
The Networking Lunch was sponsored by Kable, and refreshments were sponsored by MySociety.

Nairobi. One of Kenya's oldest urban gardens, Kenya's capital City Park, is to undergo a major restoration after decades of misuse and neglect.The 60-hectare green situated at Parklands in Nairobi is to be dramatically transformed under a programme run by the Aga Khan Trust for Culture (AKTC).
The Trust and the Kenya government signed a memorandum of understanding recently in Nairobi. Prince Hussain Aga Khan represented the Trust while on the government side were former Nairobi Town Clerk Philip Kisia, Permanent Secretary in the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister and ministry of Local Government Prof Karega Mutahi and Dr Jacob ole Miaron, Permanent Secretary at the ministry of State for National Heritage and Culture.
The agreement was reached after a two-year negotiation over the possibility of returning the facility to its original use. This means that the Trust will collaborate in the rehabilitation and restoration of the Nairobi City Park to international standards in terms of architecture, landscape and horticulture.
"The agreement marks the initial steps to give the Park a metropolitan face, which will enhance its appeal to Kenyans as well as visiting global citizens," said Prince Hussain Aga Khan.
"It is an important step towards ensuring that the historical and cultural heritage, as well as the significant biodiversity of Nairobi City Park, are conserved now and for generations to come."
In its continued support for local cultural heritage, the Trust will fund the restoration. The actual cost of the project will be disclosed later, after deliberations of the steering committee formed by the three signatories have been agreed upon.
"Many of us remember how good it was in the 1960s and '70s to go for outings in the Park when it was patronised by both tourists and locals," said Kenya's Deputy Prime Minister Musalia Mudavadi. "The experience of rehabilitating and restoring Nairobi City Park will give us direction on how to manage other parks, which also need attention," he told reporters at the signing.

Editor's note: Every Monday in "Starting 5," we'll roll out five stories, themes and nuggets from the basketball recruiting world to tip off your week in proper form. We'll set the table with the stories that need to be told and give you a leg up on the watercooler conversations around the office.
This week's edition of Starting 5 includes a breakdown of how their postseason all-star game experiences could impact the recruitments of top-five prospects Andrew Wiggins and Aaron Gordon, a recap of a pair of recent mid-major commitments, an introduction to freshman Amir Coffey, senior superlatives for the best shooting guards in the 2013 class and a look at why "motor" guys are at a premium this time of year.
1. Can postseason all-star games influence recruits?
At this point in their recruitments, we've dissected scenarios, discredited rumors and offered a few theories of our own. There are three major impact recruits still on the board: No. 1 prospect Andrew Wiggins, No. 3 Julius Randle and No. 4 Aaron Gordon. Listening to Randle, it would appear he'll be the next commit and is on track to do so before the major high school all-star games in April.
That leaves Gordon and Wiggins.

Then Brennan has not taken the oath. He is not really duly sworn as required by law.
Yeah, not swearing is scapegoating of this Muzzie criminal who's an expert of cover up, especially his involvement of looking at Passports where one person shot and never investigated. Now his in there to cover up for four killed/murdered/slaughtered four (4) Americans in Benghazi!!!

2.00 Ascot
On the evidence of the action yesterday, the going at the Berkshire venue was a good deal softer than the official description (particularly in the last two furlongs) so with that in mind, ROBANNE (best price 16-1) might have a better chance than her morning price suggests. A progressive two-year-old last season, William Knight's charge earned her place in the 1000 Guineas field thanks to a pleasing effort in the Nell Gwynn, but unfortunately the ground went against her on the day and she failed to cut much ice. Not seen out since running better than her finishing position suggests in a listed race at Deeauville back in June, the daughter of Paco Boy arrives here fresher than most and from a favourable double-figure draw (stands side seemed to have an advantage here yesterday), she has a decent chance of getting herself in the mix.
3.10 Gowran
GUSTY ROCKY (best price 10-1) arrives here in excellent shape courtesy of a notable success in the Ulster Cesarewitch on the Flat at Down Royal last time out and that confidence he gained that day should hopefully be carried forward into today's assignment at a track where he previously victorious back in June. On that day in the height of summer, Pat Flynn's inmate made mincemeat of a useful field in a fast time and with his number one asset being his high cruising speed, another soundly-run race should prove to be just the trick for this in-form seven-year-old.
3.40 Ascot
REMARKABLE (best price 8-1) has come a long way in a short space of time and he has every chance of landing this big pot if he can run somewhere near the level that saw him finish a creditable fifth in the Jersey Stakes when last seen in June. Indeed, John Gosden's charge might have finished a good deal closer than he did if he would have received a smoother passage in the latter stages and having already proven himself adept at going well fresh, his lay off since the middle of summer has to be taken as a positive rather than a negative.
3.45 Gowran
On the evidence of his performance in the Galway Plate, Road To Riches hasn't really recovered from the crunching fall he suffered in the Grade 1 Chase at Punchestown last season and with that in mind, he's readily passed over at the morning prices in favour of BALLYCASEY (NAP) (best price 9-2). Third in that aforementioned race at Ballybrit, Willie Mullins' charge proved his wellbeing with a deserved success at Killarney next time out and although he failed in his bid to follow up in the Kerry National three weeks later, once again the three-mile journey under testing conditions took its toll in the latter stages. Back over his optimum trip over a track where he's been success twice in the past, the son of Presenting makes massive each-way appeal at 5-1
4.15 Ascot
Given that IFFRANESIA (best price 16-1) was the lowest rated horse going into the Flying Five Stakes at the Curragh last time out, she did extremely well to mix it with some of the best sprinters either side of the Irish Sea and a reproduction of that sort of effort should ensure she easily outruns her odds in this much weaker event. Although she hadn't been in scintillating form up until that juncture, Robert Cowell's charge had been in deep against proper Group 1 horses and having already proven she likes today's C&D with a victory here back in 2014, 16-1 seems an insulting price given she has plenty in her favour.
4.25 Redcar
PUMAFLOR (best price 10-1) looked on good terms with himself when scoring in tidy fashion at Haydock last time out and he's taken to follow up and land the final of this series for his in-form handler. The feature of that performance at the Lancashire track was the way he travelled throughout the contest and although he hit the front plenty soon enough, he had enough in the locker to repel the late challenge of Top Break. Prior to that victory, Richard Whitaker's inmate had gone really well on both his previous two visits at today's venue and from a nice middle draw, let's hope the son of Aussie Rules can get plenty of cover early on before being delivered with his challenge late in the piece.

Human Capital Investment under Asymmetric Information: The Pigovian Conjecture Revisited
This article investigates how human capital investment, labor turnover, and wages are jointly determined when the current employer knows more about a worker's productivity than potential employers. Results derived are quite different from, or unexplored by, the standard human capital theory. The authors show that the information asymmetry can cause an externality distortion in human capital investment because higher productivity due to the investment may not be recognized by the market. The investment level increases in the degree of firm specificity of human capital. The underinvestment problem is more severe when human capital is general than when it is firm-specific.

Microsoft Office[edit]
Should there be a task force or wikiproject created for Microsoft Office? It seems just as important to Microsoft as windows.Smallman12q (talk) 13:21, 13 September 2009 (UTC)
I don't think so. Microsoft Office only works with Windows, so I think MS Office should be under the same project as MS Windows. Derek II 10:45, 27 May 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Derekthesecond (talk • contribs)
- Actually, there are versions of Office for Mac OS X and Windows Phone. JoeWang4 (talk) 01:46, 8 February 2013 (UTC)
Microsoft Product Screenshots may not require Fair-use[edit]
Screenshots of Microsoft products may be licensed under something other than a non-free fair use rationale. See the current discussion. Smallman12q (talk) 23:08, 13 September 2009 (UTC)
Microsoft Binder[edit]
Hello, I was wondering if anyone could help me. I understand that Microsoft discontinued Binder in XP, but if you had a binder 2000 document (.obd) file on an XP computer, would the Icon be like an XP style one, the same as the Win 2000 one or one of those 'placeholder' white icons? I await your response eagerly. 95jb14 (talk) 19:16, 2 December 2009 (UTC).
Dunabr high school[edit]

WP 1.0 bot announcement[edit]
This message is being sent to each WikiProject that participates in the WP 1.0 assessment system. On Saturday, January 23, 2010, the WP 1.0 bot will be upgraded. Your project does not need to take any action, but the appearance of your project's summary table will change. The upgrade will make many new, optional features available to all WikiProjects. Additional information is available at the WP 1.0 project homepage. — Carl (CBM · talk) 03:36, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
Windows Aero logo[edit]
The image file:Aero.svg is used as the logo of Windows Aero. I can't find any place where that logo is used by Microsoft. Also the image seems to be a user made released under GNU GPL so that doesn't add up for a Microsoft Logo as a Microsoft logo would be copyrighted. Is that an actual logo and should it be in the article? --Chris Ssk talk 09:31, 31 January 2010 (UTC)
AfD nomination of VGASAVE[edit]
This is to notify members of this WikiProject, within which scope this article falls, that VGASAVE, has been listed for deletion. Editors interested in the deletion discussion, are invited to participate by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/VGASAVE (2nd nomination). Thank you. - Ahunt (talk) 11:36, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
Microsoft Windows articles have been selected for the Wikipedia 0.8 release[edit]
Version 0.8 is a collection of Wikipedia articles selected by the Wikipedia 1.0 team for offline release on USB key, DVD and mobile phone. Articles were selected based on their assessed importance and quality, then article versions (revisionIDs) were chosen for trustworthiness (freedom from vandalism) using an adaptation of the WikiTrust algorithm.
We would like to ask you to review the Microsoft Windows articles and revisionIDs we have chosen. Selected articles are marked with a diamond symbol (♦) to the right of each article, and this symbol links to the selected version of each article. If you believe we have included or excluded articles inappropriately, please contact us at Wikipedia talk:Version 0.8 with the details. You may wish to look at your WikiProject's articles with cleanup tags and try to improve any that need work; if you do, please give us the new revisionID at Wikipedia talk:Version 0.8. We would like to complete this consultation period by midnight UTC on Monday, October 11th.
We have greatly streamlined the process since the Version 0.7 release, so we aim to have the collection ready for distribution by the end of October, 2010. As a result, we are planning to distribute the collection much more widely, while continuing to work with groups such as One Laptop per Child and Wikipedia for Schools to extend the reach of Wikipedia worldwide. Please help us, with your WikiProject's feedback!

Computing importance no longer defaults to Microsoft Windows importance[edit]
Articles tagged using {{WikiProject Microsoft Windows}} will retain their Windows importance, but will no longer get assigned a general computing importance unless one is provided explicitly using
When assessing articles for the Windows project, please consider the computing importance and tag accordingly. For articles which also have a {{WikiProject Computing}} banner, its
importance= must match the Windows
This will help WP Computing in three ways:
- Improve the accuracy of importance assessments for general computing
- Avoid unexpected changes to the Computing importance that result from changing e.g. the Software or Windows importance
- Bring attention to the parameter for general computing importance, reducing the likelihood of articles accidently being listed in multiple Computing importance categories. (This causes false entries in the Computing reassessment log – see discussion at WP:COMP/A – and likely other problems as well.) --Pnm (talk) 04:06, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
This project's scope[edit]
I just added a few articles to WP Microsoft Windows because they are either:
- Tangentially related to the Windows operating system
- Related to encyclopedic coverage of the Windows platform
Here's the list:
- Adobe Photoshop - application software which has a Windows version
- SetACL - utility software for Windows, exists to replace the built-in Windows command
- Microsoft Office - at times a Windows killer app
- Advanced Systems Format - Microsoft's digital video container used for WMA and WMV
I support a "big tent" interpretation of this project's scope because it exposes Windows-oriented editors who follow this project to all articles related to encyclopedic coverage of Windows. Computing coverage benefits, as does the encyclopedia as a whole. --Pnm (talk) 02:20, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
WikiProject Microsoft is up for deletion[edit]
I have nominated WikiProject Microsoft for deletion at WP:MFD. Please comment here for any concerns. Thank you for your time. JJ98 (Talk) 01:29, 11 June 2011 (UTC)
Nominated for deletion: Comparison of Windows and Linux[edit]
This may of interest to some members here; I have proposed this article for deletion due to serious WP:SYNTH and WP:OR reasons. If you wish please comment on the deletion discussions. cheers. IRWolfie- (talk) 16:17, 23 October 2011 (UTC)

Review of FA status for Microsoft Security Essentials[edit]
I have challenged the decision to award this article FA status over what I allege is a lack of balance and neutrality in the article. Fresh opinions and input are encouraged here. Quantumsilverfish (talk) 01:39, 22 October 2012 (UTC)
Windows 3.1[edit]
Is Windows 3.1 a bona fide operating system or is it a Graphical user interface or Operating system shell? It seems to me that MS-DOS was the actual operating system. DOS was required to run the computer, the job of the operating system. You could run DOS without Windows 3.1 but you could not run Windows 3.1 without DOS. You could exit out of Windows and get back to DOS. You could not exit out of DOS. You could start Windows 3.1 from the DOS operating system by typing "win" to run the program win.exe. Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 01:04, 24 November 2012 (UTC)
Request for comments: Establish standards for version history tables in software articles[edit]
I'd like to introduce the Template:Version template to Wikipedia with the goal to establish one standard for version history tables (or lists). It simplifies creation of release histories, standardizes release stages and makes the content more accessible. Please comment on the template talk page (there already is some discussion). Thanks for your contribution. Jesus Presley (talk) 07:07, 28 November 2012 (UTC)

Dispute over Windows 1.0 logo[edit]
There is a dispute at Commons:Administrators'_noticeboard#Problematic_closure_of_deletion_request_after_one_day over the image File:Windows_logo_and_watermark_-_1985.svg. This image was used in a Windows blog in 2012 but the earliest use of it I can find is in 2010 and not by Microsoft. If someone can find a use before 2010 somewhere and preferably in 1985 then the matter can drop otherwise there is a problem about people arguing as I see it that policies trump common sense. Dmcq (talk) 13:23, 16 February 2013 (UTC)
WikiProject Apps Proposal[edit]
A proposal for a WikiProject Apps has been made at Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Proposals/Apps. As WikiProject Microsoft Windows is a related WikiProject, members of this WikiProject are invited to join the discussion. Thank you. XapApp (talk) 02:31, 8 April 2013 (UTC)
Format dialog box in Windows.png[edit]
inage:Format dialog box in Windows.png has been nominated for deletion -- 18.104.22.168 (talk) 07:02, 14 June 2013 (UTC)
Notability and Sources[edit]
I've noticed several Windows articles that in theory are candidates for deletion because they make no claim to notability (e.g. Private Character Editor and Netsh) and/or rely entirely on Microsoft sources (e.g. Windows 7 File Recovery, Microsoft Message Queuing and SQL Azure). I appreciate that per WP:PRIMARY it is OK to use primary sources "to make straightforward, descriptive statements of facts that can be verified by any educated person with access to the source", but surely each article should have at least one heavyweight third party source—if only to address the question why should wikipedia have an article on this subject? I'll try to improve the SQL Azure article over the next few days, but I'm wondering, has there already been a policy discussion, or perhaps a consensus formed across earlier AfDs, that excuses Microsoft technology articles from meeting the usual WP:N and WP:RS requirements? - Pointillist (talk) 08:47, 3 July 2013 (UTC)
Conflicting/confusing information?[edit]
I hope this is the right place for this.
So on this page:
It says "The bootstrap loader takes the control over the booting process and loads NTLDR"
But according to Microsoft Technet (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc976737.aspx)
"NTLDR is the bootstrap loader"
The wiki article makes it seem like the Bootstrap loader and NTLDR are two very different things. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 22.214.171.124 (talk) 10:17, 21 September 2013 (UTC)

Nomination of Windows 5.0 (disambiguation) for deletion[edit]
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Windows 5.0 (disambiguation) is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Windows 5.0 (disambiguation) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Codename Lisa (talk) 19:49, 6 March 2014 (UTC)

Comment on the WikiProject X proposal[edit]
Hello there! As you may already know, most WikiProjects here on Wikipedia struggle to stay active after they've been founded. I believe there is a lot of potential for WikiProjects to facilitate collaboration across subject areas, so I have submitted a grant proposal with the Wikimedia Foundation for the "WikiProject X" project. WikiProject X will study what makes WikiProjects succeed in retaining editors and then design a prototype WikiProject system that will recruit contributors to WikiProjects and help them run effectively. Please review the proposal here and leave feedback. If you have any questions, you can ask on the proposal page or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you for your time! (Also, sorry about the posting mistake earlier. If someone already moved my message to the talk page, feel free to remove this posting.) Harej (talk) 22:47, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
WikiProject X is live![edit]
Hello everyone!
You may have received a message from me earlier asking you to comment on my WikiProject X proposal. The good news is that WikiProject X is now live! In our first phase, we are focusing on research. At this time, we are looking for people to share their experiences with WikiProjects: good, bad, or neutral. We are also looking for WikiProjects that may be interested in trying out new tools and layouts that will make participating easier and projects easier to maintain. If you or your WikiProject are interested, check us out! Note that this is an opt-in program; no WikiProject will be required to change anything against its wishes. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!
Note: To receive additional notifications about WikiProject X on this talk page, please add this page to Wikipedia:WikiProject X/Newsletter. Otherwise, this will be the last notification sent about WikiProject X.

Attention needed for proposed merger of Interix into Windows Services for UNIX[edit]
It was proposed back in 2010 that the Interix article be merged into Windows Services for UNIX. Discussion ended mid-2011 with a consensus for no merge, but was never closed, leading a different editor (uninvolved in the original discussion) to reopen discussion. I'd like some more uninvolved editors to take a look at the articles and participate in the merger discussion so we can establish whether or not consensus has changed in the past three and a half years. // coldacid (talk|contrib) 17:12, 14 March 2015 (UTC)

Windows Me or Windows ME?[edit]
Microsoft uses the Windows Me spelling. This is the most common spelling and PC World also uses it. Googling "windows me" on any search engine reveals that Windows Me is more common than Windows ME. Should the Wikipedia Windows ME article be moved to Windows Millennium Edition? Should the article use the Windows Me spelling? Maria Kappatou (talk) 05:28, 16 January 2017 (UTC)

USS ALABAMA (SSBN 731) is the sixth TRIDENT class nuclear-powered fleet ballistic missile submarine, and the fifth United States ship to bear the name. On 25 May 1985, USS ALABAMA was commissioned at Naval Underwater Systems Center, New London, Connecticut. Vice Admiral B. M. Kauderer, USN, was the Commissioning Officer. Since commissioning, the crews of ALABAMA have been highly decorated for the quality of service and efficiency of performance.
In May 1988, a highly successful Fleet Operational Test Missile firing was conducted, launching two TRIDENT I (C-4) missiles. On 1 September 1988, USS ALABAMA moored at Bangor, Washington, to complete the ship's 9th patrol and the 100th Strategic Deterrent Patrol by a TRIDENT submarine.
This coin honors the sailors who have served aboard this submarine and salutes their fine service. Minted in a brass alloy and given an antique finish, this coin is treated with the bold colors of the ship's seal. The reverse has space available for personalized engraving.

Bruce Riedel, who used to work for the CIA, has written in the 'Daily Beast' that Prime Minister Manmohan Singh "does know what ails his boss, but very few other Indian officials are in the know."
The article titled 'Sonia Gandhi health mystery sets India leadership adrift' paints a gloomy picture. "So with unanswered questions about Sonia Gandhi's future and Singh expected not to run again for the prime minister's job, India looks to be a bit adrift. Hard decisions about economic reforms and investment rules have been postponed, and the country has slowed."
According to Riedel, the ruling party's chief is "arguably the most powerful woman in the world today, perhaps even the most powerful woman in history."
Citing Sonia's role in preventing a deadly flareup between India and Pakistan post the 26/11 terror attacks in Mumbai, he adds, "It is far too early to count Gandhi out. She has been underestimated far too often in the past."

Unanswered: Simple Combo Box
Its been a while since I've worked in Access. I do work with VB .NET but i m stuck with a simple combo box in VBA.
Please take a look at my attached relationship.
I am trying to create a Form which will have 3 Text boxes for Part Name, Part Description and Part Number. Also 1 Combo Box where it will grab the Values from Main Area in tblArea. My problem is that I do not want any data entry into the Area Table. I just want to use the Area table as a look up table. Maybe there is an easier way of doing this.
For example, View the items in Combo Box from Main Area, but when I update the record just record the corresponding AreaID in tblPart. I would also appreciate if anyone would tell me what the Form record source should be. Thanks.

From the sound of it, the form would be bound to tblPart. The combo would get its selections (its row source) from tblArea, but save the selected item to tblPart (its control source). The combo box wizard should walk you through it.Paul

Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Jungle Leona was pretty viable back in Season 3 and Season 4 but due to the changes in the jungle last season it was pretty hard to do so -- until now. Bami's Cinder makes Leona playable in the jungle albeit a bit slow compared to other utility junglers such as Sejuani and Maokai for instance.
Before Bami's Cinder the jungle clear times for Leona was long and arduous and you had to rely on multiple Health Potion and a Ranger's Trailblazer for sustain. By the time I was able to gank for my team, the enemy jungler had a gank or two under their belt. With the addition of Bami's Cinder, you can keep up with the current jungler picks and be a force to be reckon with.
Uhhh...You're supporting, right?
Jungle Leona has arguably one of the best ganks pre level 6 and especially post level 6 in the game. It is almost a guaranteed kill or Flash if you land your e+q combo. Even more so if your lane mate has a hard crowd control ability to initiate or follow up on.
Leona, however is not meant for every team composition. It's important to note that champions that have a high burst rate and/or have hard crowd control abilities will synergize well with Leona. Champions such as Riven, Jax, Lux, Ahri, and Jinx come to mind.
Champions that have DOT effects, no form of burst or have limited crowd control abilities will make it hard to secure a kill.
It is also worthy to mention that by playing Leona, you will lose a lot of team fight damage potential as your primary role is to soak up damage and keep the enemy carries stunned as long as possible. It is recommended to play jungle Leona if your bottom lane has a support with damage potential, preferably Annie, Morgana, or of the like.
Here's a quick rundown on the pros and cons of Jungle Leona.
- Ganks are remarkable.
- Can chain stun enemy champions.
- Has the potential to either peel or initiate.
- Eclipse gives you natural defensive stats without the need to purchase a lot of defense oriented items.
- Dueling potential is nonexistent.
- Relies heavily on teammates for damage.
- Clear times are relatively slow.
- You can be bursted down easily in your own jungle early on.
Now if you're familiar with playing Leona as a support champion, you know that she can become pretty tanky without the need of too many defensive items. With the extra gold from jungle creeps and kills/assists, you will find that she will be even hardier that support Leona; thus you rise to more risky plays you otherwise won't do as support.
Runes & Masteries
The rune choices are pretty self-explanatory. You're going to be a tanky/utility jungler so the stats to armor and move speed are a given.
I prefer to stack armor glyphs, seals and marks since it will help mitigate damage from jungle camps. However, if you prefer a wholesome and balanced defensive stats, I would switch out my armor glyphs to magic resist glyps. Depending on preference you could use flat or scaling glyps.
The quints for move speed is self-explanatory as this will help you gank and your jungle clear speeds.
I like to run 9/21/0 as my masteries.
For Offense, I run Sorcery for the cool down and Brute Force and Martial Mastery for the added damage to help clear speeds along.
For Defense, I prefer to run 21. These masteries give a nice mix of damage and crowd control reduction which scales exceptionally well into late game play.
Jungle Route and Ganking
Now to the bread and butter.
It's important that you start with the side where your ADC and Support are. If you're on Red Team, you will be starting at Gromp. If you're on the Blue Team, you will be starting at Ancient Krug. It is far more important that you take as little damage as you can when starting with you first jungle camp since you will need all the health you have to do a level 3 gank. This would mean you will have to ask the support to tank a few hits (This works especially well if the support runs Relic Shield as they could heal back from it's passive). You could either Smite immediately (if you're tanking damage), or after if the support decides to tank the camp.
After the first camp you will either go to the Blue Sentinel (if you started Gromp ) or Red Brambleback (if you started Ancient Krug ). Make sure you start using your potions as soon as you can when you're engaging your respective buffs. After the first buff, go to the second respective buff. It is important that you place a ward nearby just in case the enemy jungler decides to pay you a visit. Once your ward is placed, engage the second buff and wait out until you could "last hit" Smite. At the end of the first clear you should have about 1/2 to 2/3 health remaining. Depending on the situation of your lanes you could either take Zenith Blade and gank or take another point in Eclipse and go to the Rift Scuttler and continue farming. I would like to mention that there is a certain timing that you need to master when using your abilities on the jungle camps which I will elaborate on below.
The way you attack jungle camps as well as when you use your abilities is crucial. For instance, it is important that as soon as you auto-attack, you use Shield of Daybreak immediately followed with another auto-attack. Doing so will reset your auto-attack animation resulting in a "faster" attack speed. Support Leonas would know this technique to clear recently placed enemy wards.
Knowing when to use Shield of Daybreak after your initial "chunking" is also important. It is recommended that you use Shield of Daybreak right before the larger neutral monster hits you as this will stun and reset their auto-attack animation. This will help mitigate the damage done to you.
Another way to mitigate damage is to use Eclipse right before you get hit by the neutral monster. Doing so will prolong the usefulness of Eclipse. If you end up stunning the monster with Eclipse, you will waste valuable time and defensive stats of your passive.
As for Zenith Blade, it is not advised to waste mana using this ability on neutral monsters. It has little to offer in the jungle other than using it as a means to gank lanes.
After the initial jungle clear, you will have more freedom with the jungle routes since you will have enough for Ranger's Trailblazer. The stun and added sustain will help immensely with your jungle clear times and survivability.
I prefer to run Ranger's Trailblazer - Cinderhulk as this will help you with mitigate the damage taken from neutral monsters, give you 15% Health and Mana back as well as clear your jungle camps faster. Getting anything other than Ranger's Trailblazer - Cinderhulk wouldn't be as effective in my opinion.
Buying Sheen towards mid game will give you the damage you so desperately need. This will help clear jungles a bit faster and give you some damage potential against enemy champions. I would advise to get Sheen if you're well ahead of the curve otherwise I would just build Giant's Belt or Glacial Shroud.
If you're still ahead, I would advise to get Trinity Force. This gives a nice well rounded stat boost for Leona and the passive will hurt enemy champions and neutral monsters quite a bit. If you need more sticking power, I would suggest to build an Iceborn Gauntlet. The CDR and Armor is nice and the AOE slow will make things annoying for the enemy team.
After you get Trinity Force or Iceborn Gauntlet I would suggest building Randuin's Omen and then either Spirit Visage or Warmog's Armor.
As for Sightstone, I would recommend it if any only if your support doesn't know how to ward properly or if the enemy jungler has a tendency to go gank happy. This will save you a lot of headaches and will give you a good idea where the enemy jungler is. This will be beneficial if you want to set-up counter jungle ganks with your lane mates. Also, who doesn't like extra vision?!
Tips and Tricks
Here are a few things you should know about Leona.
Her passive Sunlight procs whenever her ability hit's an opponent. You should be able to time your Shield of Daybreak, Eclipse and Zenith Blade to proc all three times to maximize your ally's damage output.
Some combos to keep in mind:
Close range initiation combo would be AA > Q > AA > W > E > R
Mid ranged initiation combo would be E > W > AA > Q > AA > R
Long ranged initiation combo would be R > E > W > AA > Q > AA
It's important that you space out the times you use your abilities, that way you don't blow all your stuns all at once.
Some Leona players prefer to use Eclipse first before initiating so by the time they root or stun with Zenith Blade or Shield of Daybreak, Eclipse would pop and do some damage. However, I prefer to use Eclipse after I root or stun since your bonus defensive stats will be invaluable during team fights. Those extra 3 seconds of tankiness may save you more than you think!
Remember that your Zenith Blade can go through minion waves and enemy champions rooting you to the last champion it hits! This is what makes Leona pretty powerful as she doesn't need to re-position around creep waves. All you have to do is run in, initiate your combo and hope to god your lane partner is there to follow up.
When you Smite Ancient Krug you will get gift of Heavy Hands. This buff allows you to stun minions and monsters ever 6th basic attack. This is immensely useful for Leona because this could further mitigate damage done by jungle camps. Remember that Shield of Daybreak counts as a basic attack and you could reset the auto attack animation! If the combo (aa > q > aa) is done correctly, you could squeeze in 3 basic attacks and a stun in between within a second which will help you proc Gift of Heavy Hands faster. Just don't waste your stun on an already stunned monster! It's important that you spread out your stuns that way you don't automatically reset the stun timer immediately.
Final Thoughts
I've had varying degrees of success playing Jungle Leona in normals and team builder and have even played a couple of ranked matches, albeit to much skepticism and opposition which took a lot of persuasion.
If you want to try some other unorthodox champions to jungle or if you really love Leona, as I do, then seeing her in a different light (no pun intended) in the jungle will be refreshing. Just don't expect her to do a ton of damage since that's not her primary role!
Have fun!

CD4 is a member of the cluster of differentiation family of proteins, mainly expressed on the surface of thymocytes and a specific subset of mature T-cells. CD4 antibody studies have also shown it expressed on monocytes, cortical cells, microglial cells, dendritic cells and macrophages. The CD4 antibody is widely used in cell marker studies, CD4 being one of the most common CD markers in use.
Recent antibody studies have suggested that nuclear factor κB-inducing kinase (NIK) is inhibited through proteasome-controlled degradation regulated by TRAF/cIAP proteins. cIAP1 and cIAP2 are fairly recent apoptosis inhibitors and represent some of the newer products in our antibody catalog.

Lenovo T450s vs. Dell Latitude...
I am looking to buy a business laptop and I have come down to these two choices. Is there any reason as to why the T450s would be worth purchasing over the Latitude? Specs aside, the only thing making me lean towards a Dell is the price. But at the same time I feel that maybe the T450s is just a better machine? Any input is highly appreciated.

SAP's Web-Based Software Struggles to Get Off Ground
Giant's effort to sell software as an online service has been slow to catch on
SAP AG three years ago launched a version of its business software package that could be accessed by customers over the Internet for a flat monthly fee—one of several industry efforts to reach smaller companies with Web-based services.
The German software giant promised at the September 2007 launch to have 10,000 customers by 2010 for its Business ByDesign offering. But issues with performance, cost and user interface have held the company back. Today analysts put the number of such SAP customers at closer to 100.
"It was not as successful as expected," says Rainer Zinow, SAP's senior vice president for Business ByDesign. "You can do everything you want under lab conditions, but when you are in the real world, sometimes things look a bit different."
Business software as a Web-based service has been heavily promoted by vendors, but some companies in Europe and the U.K. say they haven't adopted the services because they have been slow and hard to use.
Others say they've investigated options from companies such as Salesforce.com Inc., CRM -1.81% but haven't found a service that integrates all the business processes they need into one system.
SAP and its rivals say the industry has gone through a transition in terms of the products on the market and educating customers. Vendors say buying software as a Web service eliminates the need for customers to manage security, upgrades and maintenance for costly computer systems.
In July, SAP launched its latest version of Business ByDesign. The software, which is hosted in SAP's data centers and offered to customers for €133 ($179) per user per month, can run everything from financial systems to project management applications.
One customer, Kerstin Schilling, chief executive of Bestsidestory GmbH, an online marketing provider based in Leipzig, Germany, hesitated a year before committing to Web-based software from SAP, in part because the firm evoked fears of long project installations and high costs.
She first came across SAP's service in November at a conference, but she says she wasn't convinced that the service would work properly across the company with each upgrade. "It was a tough decision to believe in SAP," Ms. Schilling says.
Earlier this year, she tested the latest version of the system. Many of the applications were improved, she says, such as the ability to test new project implementations before taking them live to the entire company. This month, Bestsidestory purchased access to the system for 10 of its 15 employees.
In addition to SAP, NetSuite Inc., a provider of Web-based software, in July added project management, billing and other applications to its suite of services in the U.K. and Europe. The NetSuite OpenAir service runs $49 per user per month. Microsoft Corp. MSFT -0.73% says it will introduce in the fall a new version of its Business Productivity Suite, which offers small-and medium-size businesses email, website, file sharing and other software services at $10 a head per month.
Klaus Holse Andersen, Microsoft vice president for Western Europe, says a year ago, Microsoft had to go around knocking on the doors of small businesses to sell its Web-based product. Today, he says more small businesses are becoming aware of such services and are reaching out to Microsoft.
According to market researcher IDC, the software-as-a-service industry is slated to increase sales to $40.5 billion by 2014, up from just $13.2 billion last year. IDC predicts that in 2010 the shift to subscription software will result in nearly $7 billion less world-wide traditional software license revenue.
The Europe, Middle East and Africa accounts for just a small piece of the software-as-a-service market, 13% last year, according to IDC, versus 74% in the Americas. By 2014, the region will increase its share of such sales to 35%.
For SAP, Europe's largest software concern, such trends are a wake-up call. SAP's Mr. Zinow says the market for selling software to large enterprises is saturated. While SAP reported a 17% increase in software sales in its quarter ended June 30, it saw software sales fall 9% in Europe, Middle East and Africa, due in part to "cash conscious" customers.
Modwenna Rees-Mogg, chief executive of AngelNews, a U.K.-based news service for investors, has been mulling over Web-based software for two years, but hadn't seen anything that managed all the business processes she needed.
Ms. Rees-Mogg, who has five full-time employees, says cost was a big factor in recently choosing SAP's offering. She says that as a small business with only five employees, paying a monthly subscription for software services that are properly upgraded is much more cost-effective than paying for and maintaining a new system.
"I think it's going to save us employing at least one person if not more than one. That makes a big difference to us," she says.

text: Hey, I thought only DLPs got stuck pixels . Seriously, I just bought the Sony 46" RPTV and it seems to have a singular "pixel" sized spot that is consistently shades of Cyan. My guess is that I'm seeing a manufacturing defect / speck of dust on the surface of the red CRT lens that is blocking all/most of the red hue (blue+green=cyan). Here are two snapshots: http://extranet.digitalspinner.com/ht/dot1.jpg http://extranet.digitalspinner.com/ht/dot2.jpg I spoke with the local salesman today, and he's having a tech look at the snaps and tomorrow they'll call about how to tackle the problem. I'm a 75 minute drive away, so I thought I'd make the above snaps for them to speed up the process. My questions are: Is this a common problem? If so, what are the typical remedies? I've had the set for less than 7 days and the problem has been there since day one; is it reasonable to expect a complete replacement instead of a repair? If it's just a speck of dust that can be cleaned from the lens, is this something that they have to do at the shop, or can they do it in my living room? Thanks! Sean.

Our core team
Dr Lindsay Carrington BSc MPhil MCIEEM (Director)
Lindsay has been working as an ecologist since 1998 alongside conducting research on habitat creation since 2003, the combination of which has developed skills in a wide range of ecological surveys, research techniques and nature conservation management principles. Prior to establishing Lindsay Carrington Ecological Services, Lindsay worked on numerous large scale projects, such as the Channel Tunnel Rail Link, Thamesmead Housing Development, Thames Gateway regeneration project and the West Coast Main Line refurbishment to name but a few. Since establishing the company, Lindsay has been involved in ecological assessment of a wide range of construction projects of varying scales. She has subsequently gained extensive experience in extended Phase 1 habitat survey, Phase 2 botanical survey such as NVC and protected species surveys, particularly bat surveys, great crested newt surveys, reptile surveys, badger surveysand water vole surveys. Lindsay holds a Natural England licence to survey for great crested newts, barn owls and bats. She also has considerable experience in devising and implementing mitigation strategies for these species and has developed a related specialism in habitat restoration and creation through her research work.
Establishing Lindsay Carrington Ecological Services in 2002, Lindsay then began working towards her doctorate, researching methods into the successful establishment of semi-natural habitats on clay capped landfill and mechanisms by which they can be accelerated. Whilst her research aimed at dealing with constraints associated with the clay cap, many aspects of the research related to habitat restoration and creation in the wider context and translate directly to development related mitigation schemes. A combination of experience gained through research and consultancy means that Lindsay has also developed skills in experimental design, establishing vegetation monitoring schemes and writing habitat management plans driven by an adaptive management principle.
