If I'm not paying attention to the .977 page it tends to log me out. I've used many programs and plugins to try to keep myself logged in. But it seems to log me out about once an hour. I am able to listen to .977 at work (all night) and it is very annoy to be working and sit down at my computer to find out I've been logged out for I don't know how long. I figured that if I already listen to comedy and music all night I might as well get something for it in the long run (i want that WII soooooooo bad lol). Is there a way to fix this issue?

Comments about Rossignol SUPER 7 OPEN:
I bought this ski for the intention to use it as a freeride/ deep powder/ touring ski. I mounted a pair of Marker Baron 13 2012 and spend every day in the Kootneys.
The ski was very responsive and stable. Turning was surprisingly easy and responsiveness was instant. The more energy I put into the ski, the more the skis gave back. In the backcountry glade with dense trees, I felt confident at high speeds.
However, when it came time to use it as a back country freeride ski (BC booters) the skis showed it ugliness. The ski was not just heavy; it acted so heavy that it would break my momentum in the air. The ski was lazy on butters and switch skiing switch in deep powder was nearly impossible. I traces the problem to the heavy tips of the skis.
If heli skiing (or if you are in superb shape) or touring is your thing, the skis are for you. The feeling of the ski is unreal. But I would suggest to wait for Rossignol to correct the weight problem if you want to send tricks off cliffs and powder jumps.
Best Uses
Comments about Rossignol SUPER 7 OPEN:
Best pow ski i've ever used. I replaced my 2010 gotama's with this and this ski is so much livelier. It's better and more fun/floating in the powder and surprisingly even better and livelier on groomers too. If your looking for a great powder ski and are a strong skier check these out... or the armada JJ's which are very similar but more hard charging i find (personally i like super's better though).
Best Uses
Comments about Rossignol SUPER 7 OPEN:
Just added this to my quiver. Awesome in the deep powder and crud which we get a lot of on the USA West Coast. This ski floats on top and easily carves through the deep stuff or plows through the heavy crud. I wouldn't use it on a packed powder or groomer day. Probably want some carvers for that. But it is super fun in the fresh stuff!

Climate change didn't happen on its own.
Our global extraction, transport and use of fossil fuels causes global warming and climate change, sickens thousands of Americans and poisons our air and water.But a brighter future is possible. Over the next three years, Greenpeace will:
1. Join local communities to shut down dangerous, dirty coal plants all across the United States, and support them in a transition to a renewable future. Read More.2. Advocate for strong laws to curb global warming and put America on a path to clean energy.3. Expose climate deniers, like the Koch Brothers, and hold them publicly accountable for providing millions of dollars to lobby against climate and clean energy policies.4. Kick-start an Energy Revolution by advocating for clean-energy solutions like solar and wind power.
Research has shown that with current technology, renewable energy sources like wind, solar, and geo-thermal can provide almost all of our primary energy demand.Join the movement to get coal out of the way of clean energy, and give our elected officials the courage they need to protect our health and environment.
The ScienceClimate change is a reality. Today, our world is hotter than it has been in two thousand years, and we are experiencing faster sea level rise and more extreme weather than scientists had previously predicted. By the end of the century, if current trends continue, the global temperature will likely climb higher than at any time in the past two million years.Read more.The ProblemIt's not hard to see the result of our reliance on fossil fuels. The full impact of the BP Deepwater Horizon disaster may take a generation to reveal itself, but already hundreds of species of marine life have been affected, as have the communities that rely on the Gulf. Around the country, communities face devastating levels of water and air pollution as a result of coal burning power plants, which produce millions of tons of toxic sludge and smoke each year.Fossil fuels also account for more than 80 percent of US global warming pollution. Global warming, if unchecked, threatens to fundamentally change the planet that has sustained our civilization. In the US, we're already seeing some of the effects—wildfires tearing through western states, devastating floods in the southeast, and historic droughts in the midwest. Read more. The SolutionsWith current technology, renewable energy sources like wind, solar, and geothermal can provide 96% of our electricity and 98% of our total heating demand — accounting for almost all of our primary energy demand.Investing in renewables could jumpstart our flagging economy, creating millions of jobs that can't be shipped overseas. It could put the US back at the forefront of the 21st century economy, in front of China, which in 2009 became the largest global investor in renewables. Read more.The RoadblocksIn addition to advocating for solutions to global warming and climate change, we are doing our part to call out the work being done — often secretively — to block climate regulations and policies that would kickstart the clean energy revolution.Below are a few of the projects and resources we've created to try and remove roadblocks to progress on stopping global warming. Read more.International CampaignsClimate change and global warming are a priority issue for us here at Greenpeace. We realized years ago that it has the potential to wipe out most of the gains the environmental movement has made in other areas. Disruptions to ecosystems will likely harm everything from minke whales to coral reefs to polar bears. Whole forests will be lost, and hundreds of thousands of species will become extinct.

I would immediately fire whoever came up with that name.
Anyway, this looks kind of cool (especially since my wife may be due for a new Civic next year), but it still seems like kind of a confusing system/interface. I wish Apple would make their own standard car UI instead of letting the car manufacturers do it ham-handedly and then trying to awkwardly integrate iOS with it.

All that integration is a double-edged sword. On the one hand it's great, and super convenient, but one can't help but wonder with all that 2-way migrating data, where all that data ends up eventually, without our knowledge, no doubt.
Due to my aversion to bragging and clichés, no words of wisdom to be found on this line..... |

Meh, a proprietary solution like this will never have the kind of ecosystem something like iOS in the car could have, and I bet it will be less intuitive/smooth too, not to mention software likely won't be updated that much since it'll be limited by your car's hardware.
I'd much rather see the exact same iOS integration on every car with updates coming for free with every new iOS version, but obviously Honda would rather sell you a $60 map pack with even less POI data than Apple Maps. |

Dec 3, 2013, 12:14 PM | #17 |
This is all somewhat confusing at this point, but I don't believe this is true 'iOS in the Car'. It seems to be some sort of custom Honda solution, based around iOS apps that they provide. That's way different than what Apple showed at WWDC.

I knew automakers wouldn't go for the full "iOS 7 in the Car" feature. It's too integrated and overrides their own crappy UI with a nice, useful Apple interface.

Dec 3, 2013, 12:18 PM | #19 |
Sounds like a lot, but just a few years ago, car manufacturers were routinely charging an additional $1.5K to $2.5K for a crappy in-dash screen that did nothing but navigation, with really stale/sketchy map data. And map data had to be updated through a disc, which you could get from your dealer for several hundred dollars. So, progress.

That's something iOS in the car would have done for free, and probably with a much better UI. It seems like they're competing with iOS in the car instead of adopting it. This is very disappointing news from a consumer perspective. |

Looks lame
Yet another car manufacturer trying to reinvent a wheel that Apple and Google have already done much better.
Does Honda really think I want to use their crappy navigation app over Apple's? I can talk to Apple Maps. I can press one button on the phone (or steering wheel) and say "Give me directions to....". I can say "What's my ETA?" I can say "Cancel directions." Also, next year, when Apple Maps take another jump, I'm likely to be able to speak more sophisticated commands to the mapping program. Also, I can do all of this through a bluetooth connection, instead of having to physically plug the phone in. Can Honda's app keep up with that? Of course not. So they stupidly build their strategy on a custom app that costs $60, and will never match what I already get for free with my phone. Terrible. They should have supported iOS in the Car via a Bluetooth connection. Problem solved (at least for iOS users). |

BOOK XMÉLINE'S CONFESSIONCHAPTER ICONCEPTION—DRAMATISING BY M. MÉLINEIn the summer of 1905 a book appeared called "Back to the Land, and Industrial Over-production," by M. Jules Méline; in it, assuming Colbertism to be a new invention, he indulges in some very astonishing statements of a pseudo-historical sort, to the effect that the United States, by suddenly renouncing their former policy of free imports, closed what had been a huge market for European goods, while their exports to Europe continued to increase; and worse than that, having lost America, we are now threatened from Asia: the Yellow Peril is decked out in all its horrible unreality. Indeed, M. Méline's interpretation of the "civilising mission" of Europe in general and France in particular seems to consist in the suppression or holding back of all less civilised nations, and more especially of the Asiatic races. M. Méline is a melodramatist: that is why he is so successful in France. Regardless of realities he plays upon the people's appetite for terror, hatred, and fear: he weeps tears over those two poor orphans, national industry and national agriculture, and works himself into a fury of denunciation of the traitors who plot against them, first England, then America, and then Japan. After this imaginative exercise he expounds his "new idea." Charity, he says, begins at home, and every nation ought to be self-sufficing. This does not seem very new, but the new idea is as old as the hills: it is only the Balance of Commerce—the Protection which consists in building tariff walls to prevent foreign goods from coming into the country and to allow the home producer to sell things dear which could have been bought cheap abroad. Encouraged by high profits, they produce more than they can sell, and have to get rid of their surplus abroad, where Protection cannot follow them, and where the poor quality of artificially produced goods puts them at a disadvantage in competition. Protection organises crises and leads to that over-production which M. Méline bewails. Real over-production cannot exist; what is meant by the word is that more things of a particular sort are produced than people have money or desire to buy: and Protection, by destroying the division of labour which assigns to different nations the production of different goods, leads directly to over-production of this sort. The market for any commodity depends on three factors—intensity of demand, absence of equivalent substitutes, and abundance of exchangeable articles. Méline and the other followers of Colbert, neglecting the economic law, bend all their energies to the diminution of demand, the multiplication of equivalent substitutes, and the reduction of articles of exchange. Instead of reducing the tariffs which have provoked over-production, he proposes to limit it by Cartels, which are the outcome of Protection: an enthusiastic admirer of the 290 German Cartels, he longs to see them reproduced in France. After getting rid of foreign competition he would like to get rid of competition at home. It is logical enough, but not progress. Méline speaks with horror of crises, the same horror with which he speaks of over-production; but the protective policy of which he is the exponent leads directly to both. His remedy for all the evils that he sees is not the abandonment of the system which causes them, but something much more idyllic. "Back to the Land," that is it. He is full of admiration for the scheme of Van der Velde, the Belgian Socialist, of removing factories into the country. M. Méline is not good at producing evidence for his views: he cites two English factories, one of soap and the other of chocolate, which have been set down in the country. He did not need to go so far: three-quarters of a century ago Menier planted in a country district of France the largest chocolate factory in the world. This is all very well, but all industries cannot be ruralised. People talk about the marvellous results of the employment of "white coal," but they forget these industrial enterprises have to be in reach of their raw materials, of an abundant supply of skilled labour, and of consumers. M. Méline's lively imagination pictures the workman returning from the factory to work in his garden with his children; but if he would go and see the mining villages in the country he would see that to have a garden and to be a gardener is not the same thing. The tired miner is little attracted by the charms of horticulture. And to put down factories in the country would not mean that the miner returned to the land, but that the agricultural labourer left it to go to the mine. There is not much good in suggesting a return to the land to the people in the clothing trades, who suffer from the Protection given to the textile industries: agricultural labour, like every other sort, requires exertion and a certain training and physique which do not come all at once. This is a fact which Robert Owen and M. Méline alike overlook. Méline declares that agriculture has been ruined by taxes: it has been long ago demonstrated that there are no specific taxes on agriculture, and his further statement that all taxes fall upon landed property, and not on income, has also been refuted by Mr. Neymarck. His own ideal is to fasten the labourer to the land. He declares that peasant proprietors are diminishing, though statistics prove that such is not the case. There were 2,150,000 in 1882, and 2,199,000 in 1892. Peasant proprietorship is the ideal of all reformers who believe that the well-being of a nation consists in a state of somnolence. Peasant proprietors are a good sort of people, easily governed, very respectful to authority; but as a matter of fact neither they nor the great landowners are the real representatives of agriculture; it is in the hands of the farmers. The farmer is not an owner: he has to spend all his capital on his implements, his cattle, and his expenses: most farmers, finding it easy to rent land, take more than they can really cultivate, and go in for extensive rather than intensive cultivation. In spite of agrarian alarmists the number of farmers has not diminished: there were 968,000 in 1882, 1,061,000 in 1892. Méline confuses living in the country with agriculture: agricultural life is not an idyll or a bucolic: its aim, like that of every other industry, is profit, and by profit everything relating to it must be judged. Neither Méline nor Chamberlain will draw people away from the towns by praising the charms of the country: when such a return does take place it will mean the decay of the nation. A nation's progress has always been measured by the importance of its towns. One way of depopulating the towns, indeed, has been discovered by Méline and the other followers of Colbert. Méline himself has expressed it: "In the great towns where people live crowded together and workers require a very high standard of diet, their food very often leaves much to be desired." They certainly return to the soil of the cemetery. Who are responsible for the ravages of tuberculosis and anæmia but those agrarians who have taxed bread and meat for the profit of the capitalist landowners? M. Méline's strength lies in "going blindly ahead." But when the great majority sees how it has been deceived and duped; when it realises that only 5 per cent. of the population stands to gain by Protection, by imposing a private tax on 95 per cent. of their countrymen, then M. Méline will have to cease his palinodes on the "triumph of Protection." The attempt to abolish foreign competition has led to over-production: we are told that agriculture is ruined, and therefore the workmen and capitalists who have been ruined by over-production are to go "back to the land." It is Colbert's system, and two centuries and a half of experience have condemned it. |

JUNE, 1999 www.FreeportNY.com THE HOME OF CHAMPIONS MAYOR GLACKEN ATTENDS WASHINGTON, DC RALLY IN SUPPORT OF NEIGHBORHOOD PARKS "Nothing so clearly and quickly indi-cates the economic health and wellbeing of a community as the condition of its local parks," said Mayor Glacken. The Mayor recently took part in a rally in support of federal funding for local park improvements-held on the steps of the Capitol in Washington, DC. The rally was sponsored by the United State Conference of Mayors and the National Association of Counties (NACo.) Mayor Glacken, along with other members of the US Conference of Mayors and NACo., called on Congress to honor its 1965 promise to channel funds collect-ed from off-shore oil and gas drilling into local park and recreation programs. Mayor Glacken was joined by MVP and running back for the Denver Broncos, Terrell Davis, who said he learned to play football in a park that had been created V ( with Land and Water Conservation Funds. Davis urged Congress to provide funding for local parks, explaining that parks and playgrounds offer needed sports opportu-nities for young people. "Putting money into our parks will allow other youngsters to learn the same values I did when I played Pop Warner football," said Mr. Davis. Mayor Bill Glacken on the steps of the Capitol in Washington, DC, surrounded by members of the US Conference of Mayors, NACo., and youngsters. FREEPORT TO END FLOODING PROBLEMS WITH ADDED MONEY FROM FEMA The Village has received an $850,000 grant from the Federal Emergency Management Agency. The funding will cover 75% of the cost of raising two additional Trustee Don Mauersberger, Superintendent of Buildings, Joe Madigan; Director, NY State Emergency Management Office, Edward Jacoby, Jr.; Police Sgt. Michael Smith; Mayor Bill Glacken, Emergency Management Coordinator, Richard Holdener; Police Sgt. Kevin Noll, member of the Emergency Management Team; Lynn Canton, Region n Director, FEMA, and Keith Nicholson of the Freeport Building Department. streets below Meist'er Blvd. which suffer per-sistent flooding. Freeport received a similar amount from FEMA last year, which was used to cover a portion of the cost of raising up to 30 homes above the flood line. "We are currently upgrad-ing Wooticleft Ave. and putting the final touches on the upgrad-ing of Meister Blvd. and several adjacent streets," explained Mayor Bill Glacken. "This additional money from FEMA will help to cover the cost of raising 2,200 feet along Lester and Stirling Avenues, just below Meister Blvd. This street-raising program is part of our overall effort to end the per-sistent street-flooding problem in South Freeport,0 he said. Woodcleft Ave and Meister Blvd. are expected to be complet-ed by early fall. Construction on Lester and Stirling Avenues is expected to begin shortly after Labor Day and be completed before the end of the year. Mayor Glacken added, "we are particu-larly gratified that FEMA continues to recog-nize the work Freeport is doing to end repeat flooding and the damage it causes in this Village." He added, "By designating Freeport a Project Impact community, FEMA has-shown" its support of our efforts, and has rewarded these efforts with additional funding." Mayor Glacken also thanked FEMA for its support of the second annual Project Impact Awareness Day. "With FEMA's assistance, and the work of the Village's Emergency Management Team, our residents have the information and technological help to pre-pare for serious storms and dangerous flood-ing," explained Glacken. "While we can't always prevent disasters, preparation and education can go a long way in mitigating the damage and destruction caused by these events." The Mayor also thanked the businesses, community groups and organizations which assisted in putting together the Awareness Day event recently held at Home Depot. A MESSAGE FROM THE MAYOR Dear Neighbor, Early in my term as Mayor, I promised to make Freeport's parks the best in the state. As I said recently at the rally sponsored by the U.S. Conference of Mayors in Washington, D.C., our parks are vital to the health of our com-munity. The coming sultry days of sum-mer make the amenities of the neigh-borhood pools and playgrounds critical to the comfort of our residents. In the little more than two years that the Glacken Administration has been in office, we have made the renovations and improvements to our village parks a top priority. The basketball courts at Martin Luther King, North East and Glacken Parks have been resurfaced, and improvements to the lighting have been completed. The girls and boys on our Little League teams have benefited from the new dugouts, and other improvements at Randall Park. The Freeport Recreation Center has reopened after a month of renovations with the pool complex offering a refreshing break-when the mercury rises. Soon, the renovations to the court-yard behind Village Hall will be com-pleted, and the brick walk and raised flower garden will provide an ideal set-ting for outdoor concerts. Randall Park will be the site of the Maritime Expo, July 3, featuring demon-strations by local baymen, fishermen, decoy carvers, model submarine builders and folk artists carrying on the tradition of making maritime crafts and tools. The demonstrations will range from trap-making and fish smoking to model bay house building and duck decoy carv-ing. This is the only festival on Long Island that focuses on the cultural tradi-tions of fishermen, baymen, duck hunters, boat builders and model-mak-ers. This event will be part of our special Fourth of July Weekend celebrating the arrival of the midshipmen and women of the U.S. Naval Academy. Once again, Freeport was chosen as the port-of-call for eight sailing vessels crewed by approximately 60 underclassmen and their supervising officers. Arriving Thursday, July 1, and departing Monday, July 5, the midshipmen's visit will be the centerpiece of the holiday celebration. Saturday's festivities will also include the annual -Heritage Fair spon-sored by Long Island Traditions, Inc. It will feature military displays, an art exhibition and sale organized by the LI Arts Council, a display by the "South Street Seaport at Freeport" Museum, as well as live entertainment on the show-mobile. This summer, thanks to our local parks, the Recreation center and the special events scheduled, there will be many opportunities for us to celebrate living in Freeport. Mayor Bill Glacken and Police Chief Michael Woodward congratulated everyone on receiving awards at the recent ceremony honoring outstanding service. Approximately 80 members of the Freeport Police Department were honored for Distinguished Service, Life Saving, Community Service, Excellent Police Duty, and Commendation Service. Several civilians were also recognized for their courageous efforts including Jessica Lester, 10-years old, and Brendon Roth, 18- years old, for their part in saving a young girl from drowning.

MA UERSBERGER INSPECT HOSE COMPANY 4 Mayor Bill Glacken toured each firehouse recently while taking part in the annual inspection program. Trustee Don Mauersberger, an Ex-Fire Chief, took part in showing the Mayor around his home firehouse, Truck Company # 1. Second Assistant-Chief Paul Hashagen described the capabili-ties of the ladder truck shown in the photo. The truck was built in 1982 and has an approximate service life of 20 years. AMERICAN LEGION VETERANS SEEKING VOLUNTEERS FOR MONUMENT PROJECT The William Clinton Story American Legion Post, plans to install a monument on the front lawn of the Freeport Memorial Library to honor all Freeport Veterans who gave their lives in armed conflicts in the service of the United States. The group would like to see the project completed by Memorial Day 2000. The proposed three paneled gray granite structure would stand 5-feet high and 10-foot wide, and would have the names of all 122 Freeporters who died in an armed conflict beginning with the Civil War. Space would also be available to put in the names of any future Freeport veterans who perish in the service of their country. The Veterans are requesting that one individual from each local civic and frater-nal organization volunteer to sit on the committee responsible for raising funds to build this monument. The committee will meet one evening each month, at the Freeport Memorial Library in room #5, beginning July 28th. Additional meetings are scheduled for August 25th, September 29th, October 27th, November 24th, and December 22. Each member of the com-mittee will act as a liaison with their own organization and will be asked to solicit funds and work on various projects. The cost of the monument is estimated at $17,000. Donations to the project can be made to the Freeport American Legion (Memorial Fund) c/o Charles Jackson, 310 S. Brookside Ave., Freeport, NY 1 1520. Mr. Jackson can be reached 516- 868-5373. On the reviewing stand at the recent Freeport Memorial Day Parade: NY State Senator Charles Fuschillo, Jr.; Trustees Don Miller; Bill White, Jr.; Don Mauersberger; Hempstead Town Receiver of Taxes, Angie Cullin; Mayor Bill Glacken; Commander Charles Jackson; and Police Chief Michael Woodward. TRUSTEE MILLER JOINS EFFORT AGAINST DOMESTIC VIOLENCE Trustee Don Miller recently dropped off a cell phone he is no longer using at the Freeport office of NY State Senator Charles J. Fuschillo, Jr. Sen. Fuschillo, along with several other Albany law-makers, are collecting the phones for distribution by the Nassau County Coalition Against Domestic Violence. The phones will be reprogrammed to dial 9-1-1 at the touch of a button for individ-uals who have been victims of domestic violence. More than 500 phones have been donated to the organization.
