Ever Wondered How Do They Ground Power Outlets On Airplanes? Here's The Answer
In this world of technology, we continuously fidget for networks and batteries and chargers of our smartphones and laptops. While traveling it was a problem to use these gadgets once upon a time. But now, almost every vehicle including a plane provides you a charging slot. Where exactly to they put the earthing wire? Keep reading ahead to know that.
#3 The Technology
Technology has affected our life to such an extent that it no more is a luxury but has become a necessity. With the kind of work schedule and traveling that most of us experience in our daily lives, a charge-less phone or a laptop is not less than any earthquake or other natural calamity.
With the increased usage of smart devices, there is a constant need to stay near a power source. This statement falls true even when commuting via buses, cars, trains and airlines.
And to no one's surprise, we even get charging points in almost all these transportation vehicles. And it is quite a luxury to be able to charge your phone and laptop on the move, or 35,000 feet above the Earth.
#2 A Grounding Pin
Whenever we talk about a charging slot, the earthing wire or the grounding pin is the first thing that comes in our head. Just to make things clear, a grounding pin and the hole on an outlet is a safety feature for your appliances. In case of any kind of power fluctuation, it ensures that your device isn't ruined.
The grounding pin connected to the Earth gives the excess electrical current an additional path of least resistance, thus saving your appliance.
But the question is, how do they manage to make power slots in planes without a grounding pin or an earthing wire? Where does the excess charge go? You'll get all these answers.
Keep reading ahead to know all that.
#1 The Answers
An electrical engineer Roger L. Boyell says, "If the third pin ('ground') on the receptacle were connected at all, it would be to the metallic structure of the airplane." The concept of grounding is fairly simple. It doesn't necessarily mean that the wire actually has to be inserted into the earth. As long as it can complete its circuit and has the least resistance path to follow, your connection is grounded.
Another Turbomachinery expert Steven B. Kushnick says, "Grounding on the airframe is analogous to grounding to the Earth. If you had one hand on the stainless steel sink in the lavatory (ground); and one hand on, perhaps, an electric razor that is plugged in and properly wired with a ground-prong, then stray electric currents would have no 'desire' to enter your razor-holding hand to get to your sink-touching hand (and shock you in the process) because the stray currents have a shorter circuit to travel: through the ground-prong to ground (airframe)."
So now we know how vehicles manage to give you a charging space without an actual earthing wire. Learn more about the earthing wire and its purpose in the video below.

The Yukon government is raising the overall amount of money it gives out to municipalities by almost 10 per cent.
The new funding deal is also changing the formula for how the money is shared by the eight incorporated communities in the territory. Municipalities used to have to share a fixed sum of money, meaning that if one community received more money, another would get less.
Elaine Wyatt, the mayor of Carmacks, Yukon, said the new system won't penalize a community.
"It makes a lot of sense and believe me, we were one of the communities that always seemed to get penalized, so we're really glad to see it open-ended, and it doesn't mean communities are competing for the same amount of money, and it makes really good sense," she said.
The territorial government also promised to spend $2 million over the next five years to upgrade municipal fire departments.

|Summary, etc.:
| In What My Mother Gave Me, women look at the relationships between mothers and daughters through a new lens: a daughter's story of a gift from her mother that has touched her to the bone and served as a model, a metaphor, or a touchstone in her own life. The contributors of these thirty-one original pieces include Pulitzer Prize winners, perennial bestselling novelists, and celebrated broadcast journalists. Whether a gift was meant to keep a daughter warm, put a roof over her head, instruct her in the ways of womanhood, encourage her talents, or just remind her of a mother's love, each story gets to the heart of a relationship. Rita Dove remembers the box of nail polish that inspired her to paint her nails in the wild stripes and polka dots she wears to this day. Lisa See writes about the gift of writing from her mother, Carolyn See. Cecilia Muñoz remembers both the wok her mother gave her and a lifetime of home-cooked family meals. Judith Hillman Paterson...

Chelsea target flattered
By Graeme Bailey
Last Updated: 01/01/70 1:00am
Lucien Aubey has admitted his head has been turned by interest from Chelsea.Toulouse starlet Lucien Aubey has admitted his head has been turned by potential interest from Chelsea.
The Blues have been keeping very close tabs on the 20-year-old Congolese stopper over the past few months.
The reports coming back to Jose Mourinho are understood to have been glowing and now a summer move is looking more and more realistic.
Aubey has four years left on his current deal in The Pink City - but he admits Chelsea are a huge club who cannot be ignored.
"I am under contract with Toulouse until 2009 and I am fine in that club," said Aubey.
"But it all depends on the offers - my chairman has not closed the door.
"If a rich club shows interest, I will think about it. However I would like to win something with Toulouse before leaving.
"Chelsea has made no offer, but I don't know if I can talk about it, it is too early.
"If the contacts would become more serious I will think about it seriously. Chelsea is a great club.
"I would be a liar to say I am not attracted. I know it is early for me as I have only played 60 matches in Ligue 1 and a lot of players have failed.
"I think it will be clearer in May, but I don't ask for anything."
Aubey also admits that he would be tempted by both Marseille and Paris Saint Germain.
"Those two great clubs make me dream," he added.

Pope calls for defeat of racism, xenophobia, extreme nationalism
The Pope's message for next year's World Day of Migrants and Refugees was issued yesterday. Entitled: "For a Commitment to Overcome all Racism, Xenophobia and Exaggerated Nationalism," extracts are published below. "Migration has become a widespread phenomenon in the modern-day world and involves all nations, either as countries of departure, of transit or of arrival. It affects millions of human beings, and presents a challenge that the pilgrim Church, at the service of the whole human family, cannot fail to take up and meet in the Gospel spirit of universal charity. This year's World Day of Migrants and Refugees should be a time of special prayer for the needs of all who, for whatever reason, are far from home and family; it should be a day of serious reflection on the duties of Catholics towards these brothers and sisters. "Among those particularly affected are the most vulnerable of foreigners: undocumented migrants, refugees, asylum seekers, those displaced by continuing violent conflicts in many parts of the world, and the victims, mostly women and children, of the terrible crime of human trafficking. Even in the recent past we have witnessed tragic instances of forced movements of peoples for ethnic and nationalistic pretensions, which have added untold misery to the lives of targeted groups. At the root of these situations there are sinful intentions and actions that go contrary to the Gospel and constitute a call to Christians everywhere to overcome evil with good. "Membership in the Catholic community is not determined by nationality, or by social or ethnic origin, but essentially by faith in Jesus Christ and Baptism in the name of the Holy Trinity. The 'cosmopolitan' make-up of the People of God is visible today in practically every particular Church because migration has transformed even small and formerly isolated communities into pluralist and inter-cultural realities." "The Church understands that restricting membership of a local community on the basis of ethnic or other external characteristics would be an impoverishment for all concerned. ... Moreover, if newcomers feel unwelcome as they approach a particular parish community because they do not speak the local language or follow local customs, they easily become 'lost sheep'. The loss of such 'little ones' for reasons of even latent discrimination should be a cause of grave concern to pastors and faithful alike. "This takes us back to a subject which I have often mentioned in my Messages for the World Day of Migrants and Refugees, namely, the Christian duty to welcome whoever comes knocking out of need. Such openness builds up vibrant Christian communities, enriched by the Spirit with the gifts brought to them by new disciples from other cultures. This basic expression of evangelical love is likewise the inspiration of countless programmes of solidarity towards migrants and refugees in all parts of the world." "Often, solidarity does not come easily. It requires training and a turning away from attitudes of closure, which in many societies today have become more subtle and penetrating. To deal with this phenomenon, the Church possesses vast educational and formative resources at all levels. I therefore appeal to parents and teachers to combat racism and xenophobia by inculcating positive attitudes based on Catholic social doctrine. "Being ever more deeply rooted in Christ, Christians must struggle to overcome any tendency to turn in on themselves, and learn to discern in people of other cultures the handiwork of God." "Understandably, as I urge Catholics to excel in the spirit of solidarity towards newcomers among them, I also invite the immigrants to recognize the duty to honour the countries which receive them and to respect the laws, culture and traditions of the people who have welcomed them. Only in this way will social harmony prevail. "The path to true acceptance of immigrants in their cultural diversity is actually a difficult one, in some cases a real Way of the Cross. ... At times that path needs a prophetic word that points out what is wrong and encourages what is right. When tensions arise, the credibility of the Church in her doctrine on the fundamental respect due to each person rests on the moral courage of pastors and faithful to 'stake everything on love'. "It hardly needs to be said that mixed cultural communities offer unique opportunities to deepen the gift of unity with other Christian Churches and ecclesial communities. Many of them in fact have worked within their own communities and with the Catholic Church to form societies in which the cultures of migrants and their special gifts are sincerely appreciated, and in which manifestations of racism, xenophobia and exaggerated nationalism are prophetically opposed." source Vatican Information Service

I won't bore you with the myriad of reasons/excuses I have for not posting for months (hint: engagement, work, general life…), but I've been feeling rather guilty about it as of late…
I'm making more of a conscious effort to cook at home, rather than eat out at restaurants (see earlier mention of upcoming wedding to understand the need to fit into a wedding dress and save some cash). Now, I love to cook, but I'm the first to admit that I can get stuck in a culinary rut. So, I've resolved to try at least one new recipe each week, to try and keep things interesting!
This week, I was inspired by a recipe featured in the June issue of Real Simple magazine: Green curry with halibut and corn.
One slight problem: there was no green curry paste at my local grocery store. Just red. Rather than scrap the whole recipe, I decided to just substitute… I also opted for haddock rather than halibut (it was on special).
This was actually a really easy recipe to pull together: minimal prep work and cook time. I also cut the fat a bit by substituting the coconut milk with light coconut milk… The red curry added some heat to the dish, but that was balanced out nicely by the natural sweetness of the coconut milk and the corn. It also looked pretty appetizing:
I found it needed a bit more salt added (and I'm not someone who tends to add salt to my food), but once it'd sprinkled on a bit of extra seasoning, it was perfect! Kevin also really enjoyed it, so based on the ease of prep, I'll definitely be adding this one to the recipe collection. 🙂
We also had plenty left over for lunch (bonus!)
OH, and for anyone out there who has dietary restrictions, this recipe is also gluten-free.

- Stories detailing problems you've solved for your employers:
- My analytical skills have contributed to my ability to solve challenging problems. At FoodAmerica, for example, sales quotas were not tied to financial objectives. I applied my creativity to devising a sales-forecasting system in which order files could be integrated with shipments and invoicing files, and SAS reports could be prepared each morning. I arranged for SAS reports to be e-mailed to each sales unit so all parties could see the sales status daily, ensured that the system tied sales quotas to financial objectives, and added a trend projection expert system to forecast which products would not make their objectives. This report contributed significantly to the successful startup of the Mighty Macaroni product line.
- As a consultant at Connor Associates, I have proven myself as a team leader. For example, when the mainframe computer crashed last summer, and we lost months of crucial data, I motivated team members to pull extra shifts to duplicate the work in just a few weeks.
- My broad-based background enables me to adapt well to building client relationships. In my current position, for instance, I identified and resolved customer issues with a computer manufacturer, resulting in a $1M contract. Not only did my company win the contract, but its management expressed the organization's satisfaction by providing excellent word-of-mouth promotion of our services to its subsidiaries.
- Stories describing other accomplishments and successes. The story of your past performance shows that you are the best value choice for the employer because you've achieved the same kind of results the organization seeks, says Robert S. Frey, Senior Vice President at RS Information Systems, Inc. (RSIS), whom I interviewed for this book. Tell stories that vividly show how you've made a difference for your past employers:
- In my most recent music-industry position at BMG, I maintained $1 million project budgets and helped boost the record sales of artists such as Clay Aiken, Taylor Hicks, and Carrie Underwood. With great efficiency and productivity, I can oversee budget creation and negotiation for video and photo shoots, hire creative staff, and function as the liaison among artists, their management, and the label.
- My immersion into the world of business and finance at Global Financial Advisors has prepared me for business consulting. As a rising adviser who regularly cold-called CEOs and owners of successful Atlanta corporations to persuade them to meet with me, I banked my success on the ability to think creatively, conceptualize on many levels, and communicate crisply. I effectively explained the value my firm could provide and demonstrated my competency in tax, legal, insurance, and investment realms. I helped clients understand complex ideas in simple terms, motivated them to action, and then collaborated with a team of Global associates to implement our ideas.

Business coach Julia McDaid has been advising entrepreneurs for many years and in this classic contribution from AccountingWEB's archive, she poses some fundamental questions for those who want to set up on their own.
When someone decides to set up and run their own business, what does it really mean to them? There's a lot to think about: the impact on lifestyle, the time devoted to it and what they want to achieve.
Do entrepreneurs really know? I hear from quite a few people who have decided to run their own business or work from home but don't actually know what business they want to be in. If this is you don't worry – you're not alone. Some 80% of new businesses don't survive. So how to you give yourself the best chance? On the right are some of the key questions you need to ask to clarify your objectives and get you started. Once you know what you want to do and why, you've got a better chance of getting it right.
Starting out: key questions
● What do you enjoy doing?
● What skills and experience you have, and what you could do with them? Don't just think about the obvious things – you don't have to do exactly what you did for your last employer.
● Have you researched the market? Look into the type of business you want to run and find out what is happening in the industry, where the demand is and how you could fit into that.
● How do you make it happen? Through planning and passion. Start with goals and vision and "begin with the end in mind".
How do you make it happen?
To get a business off to the best start repqures planning, passion, people and practicalities.
If you don't enjoy what you're planning to do, then why are you thinking of doing it? If you enjoy what you're doing it will seem a lot easier and you will ultimately be more successful than someone who doesn't.
Planning comes in at all stages of setting up and running a business. You need to start with goals and vision.
If you look at any famous entrepreneur and how they achieved what they did, you will find that none of them did it alone. Most will cite a mentor or coach who supported them. Find somebody like this who can help you focus your ideas, and keep you on track with your plans – a business coach, professional adviser, another business owner or maybe even a friend or family member.
Start to think about building a support network of people who can help you, and people you can share ideas with. This might be through face to face meetings, by telephone or via online communities such as UK Business Forums, BusinessZone and other advice on AccountingWEB.co.uk.
Once your business is up and running you will need to think about staff, suppliers and of course customers.
Finally, the practicalities. How do you Start Up Right? Where do you get all the information about tax, VAT, employing staff, computer software, where to work, selling and so on?
Do more research – there is plenty of information from official sources like HMRC and BusinessLink.gov.uk and other business advice sites on the internet. Ask the experts: you will need to use professional advisors such as accountant in your business, so take the opportunity to find out some useful information whilst you are interviewing them.
And once you have done your thinking and research and decided that the business is right for you you need to take action! A great idea is completely worthless… until it is turned into action. Without action there can be no success.
Making the decision is often the hardest part. Once you have decided to run your own business and know what you need to do you can move forward with the planning and research to make it happen.
Remember Nike – Just do it!

Why is blood circulation important? You are alive because your heart pumps blood to all parts of your body.
11 Reasons To Flush Out Toxins
Blood carries oxygen and nutrients to all parts of your body. Your circulation system should be maintained properly in order to enjoy good health.
Sedentary lifestyle or medical conditions like diabetes can seriously affect your circulation system. This can further create many health issues like swollen feet or cardio vascular diseases.
How Your Lifestyle Affects Your Bones
A healthy body is one of the benefits of blood circulation. Now, let us know more facts about blood circulation.
Fact #1
The arteries are blood carriers. They move it from your heart to various parts of your body. The blood is again carried back to your heart through your veins.
Fact #2
As you age, your blood circulation can get affected. Also, your activity levels may reduce as you age which might affect your circulation.
Fact #3
Hypertension is one disorder that can trouble your arteries when the blood is pumped into them.
Fact #5
Smoking affects your blood vessels and this may affect your circulatory system severely. Quitting may help.
Fact #6
Consuming unhealthy foods may result in clogged arteries due to fat. As arteries may get hardened, your circulation gets affected.

WE ARE MONSTERS presents
Sammy D (Wolf + Lamb, Life & Death)
Mozhgan, Jason Greer
101 6th St
San Francisco, California (CA), 94103
This event is 21 and over
Sammy D
Sammy D has been a fixture in the San Francisco house and techno scene for the past 12 years. From his early days as a resident at the famed house club "The Top", to his production collaborations with Dirtybird Justin Martin, all the way to his massive monthly [KONTROL] parties at the legendary EndUp, Sammy has had a firm hand in helping shape the music scene in the Bay Area for over a decade.
Having already released music under the moniker Justin Martin & Sammy D on such luminary labels such as Derrick Carter's Classic Records, Ben Watt's Buzzin'Fly and Claude Von Stroke's Dirtybird, Sammy's new project PillowTalk (alongside production partners Michael Tello and Ryan Williams) is ready to pick up where he left off and move his productions in the natural direction we all knew Sammy was heading.
PillowTalk is straight up soul dance music planted in House and Techno. Influenced by the great RnB singers of the 50's and 60's, you can sometimes catch Sammy crooning on a corner in SF, or get caught up playing Name That Tune, dropping new jack swing classics at the drop of a hat. It's Sammy's voice that is his greatest asset, but his ears are certainly not far behind. His musical range and taste are incomparable...does this man own a bad record? Whether it be Rock, Disco, R'n'B, Northern Soul, Classic House, or Techno, he's got an incredible ear for good tunes. Sammy prides himself on exploring all genres of music, and incorporating this knowledge into his productions and DJ sets.
Having today manned the decks for close to 17 years, it's Sammy's DJ sets that really separate him from most artists out there. He has that perfect balance of technicality, patience, and understanding of what to play at the right time. He can really read a crowd, which, coupled with his highly entertaining personality, has made for some of the most unforgettable and legendary sets San Francisco has had the joy of experiencing.
Sammy has played with just about every major DJ in the world through his [KONTROL] and LoveLetters events, but the time has clearly come for him to step out from behind the decks and into the spotlight with his refreshing new productions with PillowTalk. Quite promisingly, their first production has already been signed to Seth Troxler and company's hot new label VisionQuest and a follow up LP's on the upstart Life and Death, Wolf + Lamb and Kompakt. Stay tuned, and watch for big things in the near future, because we've clearly only cracked the surface of this one-of-a-kind talent.
Mozhgan is a DJ based in San Francisco, California. Since 2011 she has been throwing one of SF's most musically diverse dance events, We Are Monsters, where she is a Resident DJ. Combining elements of Cosmic Disco, Cold Wave, Minimal Synth, Post Punk, Rock, Industrial, and EBM with House and Techno, the monthly event has brought together forward thinking DJs and crowds in an intimate setting. She has also brought her instantly recognizable style and sounds to the annual Sunset Campout and Burning Man, as well as a recurring weekly set at Monarch in SF. Mozhgan has developed her distinctive approach to selecting and mixing music that has distinguished her as one of the outstanding new DJs in San Francisco.

He's a monster.

The war on meth
If the phrase "the war on drugs" has lost some of its impact in recent years, Police's National Clandestine Laboratory Team has no doubt that is exactly what they are engaged in when combating the manufacture and supply of methamphetamine. Despite record-breaking meth busts by police in the past year, this specialist team won't be out of a job any time soon. Ellen Brook reports.
If you're in the illegal drugs trade, methamphetamine is almost the perfect product.
It's easy to make; it's easy to distribute; it generates its own demand as users need ever-increasing amounts to get consistent highs; and it brings huge, tax-free profit margins.
With such incentives, organised crime groups are highly motivated to protect and grow their business.
As Wellington's Clandestine Laboratory Team OC, Sergeant George Campbell, says: "When you're manufacturing a product that you can sell for between $100,000 and $1 million, getting caught and having all your equipment taken away is not desirable, so these groups do a lot to avoid detection."
Meth use seems to be escalating, according to National Clan Lab Team boss Senior Sergeant John Brunton and his staff.
Their observations are backed by evidence from communities around New Zealand and by the most recent figures on reported drug use by police detainees, which show reduced cannabis and alcohol consumption and increased demand for meth*.
"Our borders are busier than ever," John says, "and the importation of methamphetamine and its precursors are an unwanted part of the increasing trade. China is a key source country and organised crime groups are usually responsible."
As the conflict intensifies, his teams, based in Auckland and Wellington, are proactively policing gangs and other dealers. They work with information from Customs, the chemical industry, retail outlets, property managers and covert sources. They are working online, where precursors and equipment are bought and sold on the black market; on the road, where illegal cargo is transported; and in homes and buildings, where meth cooks labour over their dodgy chemistry sets.
"It's really not difficult to make meth, you just follow the recipe, and it doesn't take long," John says.
It's possible to make a batch in a few hours, which means it can be hard to catch offenders in the act. Some mobile labs are transported in little more than a large chilly bin.
A cook who works swiftly, who can fix things when they go wrong and who avoids blowing up his meth kitchen – a sure way to alert the authorities – is considered a valuable asset to the gangs that have secured his services.
Some cooks are better than others.
John recalls one hapless offender who, knowing police were about to enter his home meth lab, set the place on fire; he then panicked, jumped out a window, cut his leg and, as he tried to escape, stood on his own booby trap – a board of protruding nails.
During another raid, the cook blew off the garage door and set the house on fire as he tried to destroy the evidence.
Such summary natural justice also serves to show how dangerous these clan labs can be.
In fact, they are the stuff of health and safety nightmares, crammed with toxic, corrosive and carcinogenic chemicals, stored unsafely on kitchen benches and in fridges, or being heated in rickety arrangements of condensers, funnels and flasks.
There is an ever-present threat of fire and explosions.
The teams have seen what can happen to offenders – some don't escape with their lives – so don't take any unnecessary risks.
|Detective Sergeant Rhys Wilson is the newest fulltime member of John's team. He did a science degree before becoming a cop, so there is a certain symmetry to his career path. He is holding a Parr bomb – a pressure cooker device that speeds up the chemical reaction, reducing the time taken to cook meth. It's made on the black market for the black market and has no legitimate use.
Once a lab has been identified, or is suspected, the initial entry is usually made by the Armed Offenders Squad, wearing respirators and hazard suits, with no inch of skin exposed.
The AOS enters with five to 20 officers, depending on the size of the operation. Their job is to flush out any offenders at the scene and seize any firearms – which now go hand in hand with gang-controlled premises.
Once they have the all-clear, the clan lab assessment team goes in to collect evidence. That group includes two clan lab officers, a photographer, a scene of crime officer and an ESR (Institute of Environmental Science and Research) chemist, who provides specialist advice on what they are dealing with.
They are all well protected against any chemicals that could penetrate the skin and enter the bloodstream.
"We are happy to go overboard with our protective equipment," John says, "but it does have its downside at this time of year, with heat fatigue becoming an extra concern."
The crew open as many windows as they can to vent the property of toxic vapours, such as those produced by the solvent toluene, which smells like paint thinner and can affect the skin. "It makes you go reddish and blotchy – a sure sign you've been exposed to it," John says.
A thorough hosing-down follows each such exposure.
The teams visit about 70 clan labs a year. It's not the healthiest of work environments, John admits, "but all staff have regular health check-ups, and ongoing monitoring confirms we remain a healthy unit".
And, he says, despite the risks, it's really important work. "We don't like people making and selling drugs in our community.
"We hear and see plenty of sad stories and there's no lack of motivation to do this work."
John's concerns are echoed in other parts of the country where meth continues to make its mark, replacing cannabis in many communities.
Senior Constable Stuart Turnbull, of the Kawerau Tactical Crime Unit, says he can't remember the last time he did a cannabis warrant. For the past couple of years, he has been working fulltime on meth-related crime and is concerned about Police focus shifting so much towards burglaries, "even when most of the burglaries are to get cash for meth".
Stuart says the meth problem in rural areas is every bit as bad as in the cities and he believes it will soon surpass metropolitan areas.
Gangs, he says, know there is less chance of getting caught in some rural areas due to lack of police resources.
"Success stories from the metropolitan areas are being heralded as victory over organised crime and that police are on top of things. Sadly, the reality in the provinces is the opposite. Unemployed gang members are making hundreds of thousands of dollars and meth is easier to buy than a pint of milk," he says.
John also has grave concerns about gangs trying to gain mainstream credibility and making themselves attractive to young people.
"Like any business, they want more customers. It's important to keep our focus on the gangs and remind our public not to get complacent about them. It's too easy for the gangs to get hold of our kids. That is a risk we need to mitigate."
The meth trade is pretty much all gang-controlled, he says, and, as the stakes get higher in terms of financial gain and potential loss of assets, the gangs are getting smarter.
In the mid-2000s, up to 200 labs a year were being busted and a few were smaller, so-called "mom and pop" labs.
These days, with the trade essentially taken over by organised crime, the people running the labs are getting shrewder all the time, especially as they try to avoid the long arm of the Police Asset Recovery Unit.
Police is committed to the Methamphetamine Action Plan – a joint initiative with other government agencies – and the more recent Gang Action Plan.
The links are undeniable, but action plans are based on the long-term and it's the here and now that exercises the minds of frontline police officers.
Police Association President Chris Cahill, who has spent much of his career in the drugs and organised crime arena, says the challenge is for Police management to ensure organised crime teams are appropriately staffed and resourced to lead the Police action plans.
"Police identify organised crime as a key driver of crime, but that is not always followed up with a district focus or the commitment of staffing and resources," he says.
"There is evidence to show that targeting drug dealing in an area has a significant impact on the reduction of both volume and violent crime and goes straight to Police's focus on prevention."
District commanders need to respond to this driver of crime with the same enthusiasm they apply to other areas, he says.
* The proportion of detainees who had used meth in the previous year rose from 28 per cent in 2012 to 36 per cent in 2015. The number who felt dependent on meth increased from 22 per cent in 2011 to 35 per cent in 2015.

Medical Marijuana Ordinance
Humboldt is one of the few counties in California on course to complete a "Medical Marijuana Land Use Ordinance" by the March 1, 2016 state deadline. Most cities and counties are "just saying no" and voting for a cannabis moratorium, which means they will default the state guidelines. Politics is like sausage. Enjoy the final product, just never ask how it's made. Somewhere between the will of the majority of those elected, public comment, planning…Read More
Cannabis Credit Union
One of the biggest obstacles to cannabis being a mainstream industry is the federal government. The feds classification of cannabis as a Schedule 1 controlled substance effectively keeps all federally chartered financial institutions from doing business with anything cannabis related. The reality is the CDC (Centers for Disease Control) claims that cigarettes kill over 6 million people worldwide every year and almost 500,000 in the United States alone. For this, tobacco farmers get tax breaks…Read More

Starting a business is like running a race against time. There are so many things to take care of – getting a business plan ready, sorting finances, finding a location, planning entry, hiring staff, etc. Sometimes in the rush to do the big things, the small stuff just slips by.
One of the most important things for any modern-day business is to have an online presence aka a website. Seems obvious enough, but believe me when I say it gets overlooked way too often. Let me tell you something – if you start a business, you need a website. Period!
People look for all kinds of businesses online now – from your grandma style bakeries to painting contractors. So, the excuse that your business is not big enough to warrant a website will not work.
Also, just getting your business registered in an online local directory may not be enough because customers may want more information than just your business name, address, and telephone number.
Your website can be a storehouse of information about your business. It can also be one of the most powerful tools for promoting your business. Just imagine the eyeballs you can grab by providing a link to your website on a local business directory.
A website will also allow you to understand your target market and user behavior such as what demographic profile visits your website most often; what pages are they looking at; how much time are they spending on your website – all actionable data that may help you get more leads/sales and improve customer satisfaction.
You can use your website to advertise vacancies, start a blog, and provide customer service (live chat; inquiries, etc.). The possibilities are endless.
So, if you're starting a business, however small, you need a website like yesterday!

I was looking to order something from them so I came here to check them out in the sponsors section, but it seems their subforum is gone now. It was definitely still on here 1.5-2 weeks ago and I can't find anything about why they've been removed. If it was for them pulling shady shit or fucking up it'd be good to know. Or are they still legit and safe to order from?

HowTo: Hide HTML markup from non-signedin users at MonoX Social CMS
At MonoX Social CMS, which I use at both ClipFlair Social and Trafilm websites, I was in the need of hiding some HTML markup when the user is not signed-in.
The solution for this is to add runat="server" to the HMTL element one wants to hide and then set the Visible property that the object acquires due to the runat clause. The Visible property is set using some special syntax to access the MonoX API like below:
<ul runat="server"
Visible="<% $Code: Page.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated %>" >
HowTo: Copy effective-computed CSS style for specific HTML paragraph
I'm in the process of setting up a temporary landing page for the trafilm project, where I need apart from showing the trafilm logo to also show some text description about the project, till I set up an instance of MonoX Social CMS for it, like the one in ClipFlair's Community website (ClipFlair Social).
Since ClipFlair Social has some nice text styling, I decided to borrow the style of one of its home page paragraphs, using Firefox web browser's developer tools (accessible via F12 key).
Being at the Inspector tab of the dev tools (which is the default when they first open), using the "Pick element" tool (first one on the dev tools pane's toolbar on the left), I select the paragraph that looks nicely styled and I go to the Computed tab at the Style view, then press CTR+A to select all computed style CSS declarations for that paragraph element and press CTRL+C or right click and select Copy to copy them to the clipboard.
If pasted (CTRL+V) in some text editor like Window's Notepad that looks like a big ugly line, since they contain Unix-style line-endings, that is LF (linefeed) and not Windows-style ones (CRLF, Carriage Return + Line Feed), but editors like Wordpad or Notepad++ can show them nicely and even convert line endings from Unix to Windows and vice-versa if you wish so (e.g. in Notepad++ the respective actions are at Edit / EOL Conversion menu).
So, this is the copied Computed CSS style for that paragraph:
border-bottom-color: #333;
border-bottom-style: none;
border-bottom-width: 0px;
border-image-outset: 0 0 0 0;
border-image-repeat: stretch stretch;
border-image-slice: 100% 100% 100% 100%;
border-image-source: none;
border-image-width: 1 1 1 1;
border-left-color: #333;
border-left-style: none;
border-left-width: 0px;
border-right-color: #333;
border-right-style: none;
border-right-width: 0px;
border-top-color: #333;
border-top-style: none;
border-top-width: 0px;
color: #333;
cursor: default;
font-family: "Open Sans",sans-serif;
font-size: 14px;
font-weight: 400;
letter-spacing: 0px;
line-height: 24px;
margin-bottom: 20px;
margin-left: 0px;
margin-right: 0px;
margin-top: 0px;
padding-bottom: 10px;
padding-left: 0px;
padding-right: 0px;
padding-top: 0px;
-moz-border-bottom-colors: none;
-moz-border-left-colors: none;
-moz-border-right-colors: none;
-moz-border-top-colors: none;
As you can see, it has lots of stuff that isn't needed, unless you want to be sure your style doesn't get affected by style of parent elements. In my case I decided to trim it down a bit:
color: #333;
font-family: "Open Sans",sans-serif;
font-size: 14px;
font-weight: 400;
letter-spacing: 0px;
line-height: 24px;
margin-bottom: 20px;
margin-left: 0px;
margin-right: 0px;
margin-top: 0px;
padding-bottom: 10px;
padding-left: 0px;
padding-right: 0px;
padding-top: 0px;
Adding around the text above (which is represented by the CSS comment /* … */ below) a CSS selector to wrap those declarations in order to make a proper CSS rule-set:
p {
and passing to CSS LINT tool to help us clean up the CSS we get no errors, but several warnings:
For example, as explained at W3Schools.com, in CSS one can use shorthand margin and padding properties:
marginproperty is a shorthand property for the following individual margin properties:
CSS has properties for specifying the padding for each side of an element:
…so one wonders why Firefox Dev Tools don't spit those out with that order and give them in bottom, left, right and top order instead.
Also instead of 0px, one is suggested to always write 0 instead, since zero will always be zero irrespective of the CSS units used for it (at least for the currently available CSS unit systems that is). This is merely to save in bandwidth I think, since 0px is better, suggesting to anyone modifying this value in the future they'd better use "px" [pixels] instead of say "pt" [points]).
So we clean up this CSS into (pay attention to the order of values in margin and padding shorthand declarations, which is top, right, bottom, left, that is clockwise starting from the top side of the HTML elements targeted via the CSS rule selector, which is a paragram – p – in our case):
p {
color: #333;
font-family: "Open Sans",sans-serif;
font-size: 14px;
font-weight: 400;
letter-spacing: 0;
line-height: 24px;
margin: 0 0 20px 0;
padding: 0 0 10px 0;
Pasting at CSS LINT online tool again we get no warnings anymore (apart from no errors):
One might also remove the redundant space chars at the end of each line that Firefox places when copy-pasting the style declarations. Notepad++ can do it via Edit / Blank Operations / Trim Trailing Space menu command:
HowTo: Tell IE to use compatibility mode without editing your web pages
at http://www.mono-software.com/Mono/Pages/Discussion/dtopic/_YyUBIlx5kiqHaNqAQeltg/br-brake-bug-in-IE11-and-clipflair-text-editor/
one reads:
We are using Telerik's rich text editor (RadEditor), and it seems that RadEditor has specific behaviour regarding insertion of break tags.
To circumvent this issue please try to add host header in ISS 7 (website level):
Name = "X-UA-Compatible"
Value = "IE=EmulateIE10"
Or, you can insert Html Meta tag on a PreRender event (of Page that uses RadEditor):
HtmlMeta meta =
This is a very handy trick, one can open up a website at IIS console and open HTTP Response Headers node and then add the Name / Value pair X-UA-Compatible / IE=EmulateIE10 to force say Internet Explorer 11 to behave like Internet Explorer 10
To confirm it works, press F12 to show developer tools in IE11 and see at the right that it says "IE10" instead of "Edge" at the HTML engine selection dropdown list (compatibility mode).
Gotcha: JS replace on document.location fails, use document location.href
This is my contribution to:
Here is an example of the practical significance of the difference and how it can bite you if you don't realize it (document.location being an object and document.location.href being a string):
We use MonoX Social CMS (http://mono-software.com) free version at http://social.ClipFlair.net and we wanted to add the language bar WebPart at some pages to localize them, but at some others (e.g. at discussions) we didn't want to use localization. So we made two master pages to use at all our .aspx (ASP.net) pages, in the first one we had the language bar WebPart and the other one had the following script to remove the /lng/el-GR etc. from the URLs and show the default (English in our case) language instead for those pages
var curAddr = document.location; //MISTAKE
var newAddr = curAddr.replace(new RegExp("/lng/[a-z]{2}-[A-Z]{2}", "gi"), "");
if (curAddr != newAddr)
document.location = newAddr;
But this code isn't working, replace function just returns Undefined (no exception thrown) so it tries to navigate to say x/lng/el-GR/undefined instead of going to url x. Checking it out with Mozilla Firefox's debugger (F12 key) and moving the cursor over the curAddr variable it was showing lots of info instead of some simple string value for the URL. Selecting Watch from that popup you could see in the watch pane it was writing "Location -> …" instead of "…" for the url. That made me realize it was an object
One would have expected replace to throw an exception or something, but now that I think of it the problem was that it was trying to call some non-existent "replace" method on the URL object which seems to just give back "undefined" in Javascript.
The correct code in that case is:
var curAddr = document.location.href; //CORRECT
var newAddr = curAddr.replace(new RegExp("/lng/[a-z]{2}-[A-Z]{2}", "gi"), "");
if (curAddr != newAddr)
document.location = newAddr;
HowTo: Quickly test a webpage in different Internet Explorer versions
I just noticed that on Internet Explorer 11 developer tools console (appears when you press F12 key), there is a drop-down where you can select the rendering engine used. Edge means the very latest (IE11 one in this case) and you can select back to version 5.
Interestingly, there is no version 6 in the dropdown, don't remember if there was an IE6 or if they jumped from IE5.5 or something to IE7 directly.

"He broke my heart". Phrases like this are thrown around a little too casually. I'm guilty of it. When commenting on T's '30 before 30′ bucket list article, I mentioned having my heart busted wide open by 3 people.
When it comes to matters of the heart, i.e. Relationships. Love. Trust: These are the words that are commonly linked. When you're in love you should be able to trust the person you're in a relationship with to be honest with you. To not betray you by sleeping with your friend. To have the decency to not violate your body and mind with abuse that renders you 'heart-broken'.
My track record is not superb; oh, my cynical tone didn't give it away? I haven't always been blameless, though I've never cheated or lied, been abusive or lowered myself to blackmail. But I will admit to taking baggage into relationships that didn't belong there and, for that, I must be responsible.
I've listened to The Cure's album 'Wish' so much I had to buy the CD 3 times. I wore it out. 'Tidal' by Fiona Apple got the same treatment. I have wallowed in self-pity and built a wall of suspicion with a pinch of cynicism around me. I refuse to watch 'chick flicks' because they lead you to believe that the average girl next door can find herself a Ryan Gosling who doesn't care that she's a ball of neurosis. I'm not buying it. Yes, I'm jaded. Has my heart been broken? I thought so. But maybe, maybe it's just been damaged. Scarred.
I have 5 friends under the age of 40 who are widows. 2 of these women have children. Only one widow knew her husband had limited time on this earth and was able to prepare herself as best she could for what was coming. The other 4 lost husbands in freak medical situations, car/bike/drowning accidents, and such tragic circumstances.
When they got married, they gave their hearts to each other and became ONE. I nearly got married once and when I called it off, I spent months trying to deal with the pain of what felt like losing a limb and the 'phantom pain' that went with it. But my heart? It didn't break. It was stretched, torn, twisted, put through the proverbial wringer. But did it break? No.
The 5 widows I mentioned didn't lose their partners because their partners treated them badly. They didn't lose them by choice. No, these women were robbed of the other half of their heart. When you say, "I do", you also say "till death do us part." I just don't think these women ever expected that death would come so swiftly and so stealthily.
That is what I class as 'heartbreak'. My painful relationships should be described as heartache. Can you imagine being widowed before you turn 30? It's unthinkable.
So from now on, when people ask about my relationships and what I think, I will be using the term 'heartache' when I explain the feelings that I was left with. 'Heart break' applies to those who grieve the loss of a loved one, whether it be a spouse, a child, a sibling. I choose to reserve something as intense as 'heartbreak' for situations where I genuinely believe that the heart may break in little pieces due to the heaviness of grief and the burden of burying the man you planned on growing old with or the baby that only took a few breaths. I think I may be guilty of being flippant with the term and overly dramatic. My heart is bruised: not broken.
Do you think there needs to be clarification between the terms 'heartache' and 'heartbreak'? Should they be used more carefully?
