Beth Wold Photography website has a new look!
I've been doing quite a bit of work on my website lately, and now I'm officially revealing the brand new look to the world.
Some of my goals in the redesign were to:
1. Make the website more user friendly - so a new visitor can easily find all the information they need
2. Keep the design clean and elegant
3. Keep the photography the star of the show
One of the things I'm thrilled about is the ability to separate out different categories in my wildlife and landscape galleries. Now you can easily view just "Collector's Favorites" or "African" wildlife categories as seen above. I'm hopeful these categories will help visitors easily discover the photographs they are looking for.
I've also added Velvet Fine Art Paper as an option, as well as new sizes of gallery wrapped canvases.
So hopefully, I was able to accomplish my goals, and while I'm thrilled with how it turned out, I'd love feedback! What do you think? Here's the address: www.bethwold.com

Art Quotes Friday - Henri Cartier-Bresson
"Photographers deal in things which are continually vanishing and when they have vanished there is no contrivance on earth which can make them come back again."― Henri Cartier-Bresson
Monday, June 23, 2014
Some of my photographs are now available as Stock Photography!
I was recently contacted by OffSet, a stock agency that was interested in my photographs. I consider myself a fine art photographer rather then stock photographer and have only had limited success with stock in the past, but decided to check them out anyway. According to their website they are a "curated collection of extraordinary, engaging imagery from top artists and storytellers around the world." (You can read more here: http://www.offset.com/about) Needless to say I was intrigued with their concept. I was even more impressed by some of the photographers they already had working with them - such as David duChemin - who I have been a fan of for years, and own at least three of his traditionally published books as well as quite a few of his ebooks. They also have National Geographic stock, as well as quite a few other notable photographers and stock agencies. So I decided to give it a go, and see how it works out for me - if for no other reason then to see my name in such prestigious company!
So I now have 26 photographs with them(and I'll be working on more as I get the time) and you can check out my artists page here: http://www.offset.com/artist/Beth+Wold The most exciting part for me(as in - I squealed in delight when I noticed this!) is that if you search offset.com for say a "zebra" you'll find photographs of mine along with Art Wolfe and Frans Lanting - essentially two of the three top wildlife photographers in the world.
So if you are interested in using some of my photographs for stock purposes check out my page at OffSet here: http://www.offset.com/artist/Beth+Wold
If you're interested in prints, then check out my website! www.bethwold.com

This is the only blog I own. I decided not to announce it to all my friends. I'm not really that happy with my life today. I have friends whom I value so much. They are all so close to me yet so far as well. We all seem okay, but I don't feel that way. I feel like I'm always constrained with something. I can't be who I am. I always try to be the one they all expect and ask me to be. But here, being "semi"-anonymous, I think I am all free to say and express all the things I keep inside. At least, lesser tendencies of freaking out. taaaaha. :D

1. Do you check out audiobooks from The Library? If yes, how many do you check out at a time?
2. If you checkout audiobooks , please mark all of the formats that you check out:
3. Do you place audiobooks on hold though the library catalog or at the checkout desk? If yes, how many do you place on hold each month?
4. Do you currently download eAudiobooks through Overdrive? If yes, how many do you check out at a time?
5. Do you place holds on eAudiobooks through Overdrive? If yes, how many do you place on hold each month?
6. The Library is currently investigating adding a service called Hoopla, which would allow you to stream audiobooks through their website and mobile app. Would you be interested in streaming audiobooks through this free library service?
7. Many of Overdrive's audiobooks are also available through Hoopla. Hoopla allows simultaneous access, this means that you would have no wait time for the Hoopla version, but the library would not buy these same titles from Overdrive. Would you be willing to subscribe to both services to check out eAudiobooks?
8. Due to the expense of making Hoopla available, we would be able to offer a maximum of 3 checkouts per month per person. Does this negatively or positively affect your opinion of the library spending money on this service instead of more physical audiobooks or Overdrive eAudiobooks?
9. Based on this information, I think the library should add Hoopla to its list of free services.

Third SGI Tour of Homes Held on February 8, 2014
The third St. George Island Tour of Homes on Saturday, February 8, 2014, was a great success!
More than 550 participants braved a little early morning drizzle to visit homes on the island's East End, in the first-platted area of Gulf Beaches, and in the gated community St. George Plantation. Also open for Tour participants were the Lighthouse and the Lighthouse Keeper's House at the center of the island, and the St. George Plantation Clubhouse. The skies cleared at mid-morning, making it a beautiful day to see seven fabulous island homes.
The Tour kicked-off with a Friday evening reception and presentation on the early history of development on St. George Island by island resident James Hargrove, author of "The Oyster King." A capacity crowd enjoyed refreshments and Dr. Hargrove's lively account of the rise and fall of William Lee Popham.
We offer a huge thank you to all who helped make the 2014 SGI Tour of Homes possible: seven gracious and generous homeowners, 29 sponsors, a tireless Planning Committee, nine House Captains, 62 docents, 27 shuttle drivers, Gift Shop staff who sold over 500 advance tickets, businesses and individuals who donated door prizes for the Friday event, and volunteers who did everything from preparing Friday's hors d'oeuvres, to putting up and taking down signs and tents, to selling tickets on Saturday -- and everything else that needed to be done in the roughly five months leading up to the Tour. A special thanks goes to the St. George Plantation Owners Association Board of Directors and members who so warmly welcomed Tour organizers and visitors to their community. And last but not least, we thank all the people from more than 20 states and at least one foreign country who came to St. George Island to participate in the third Tour of Homes.
You may read about the 2014 Tour homes by clicking on "Tour Homes and Buildings." Please continue to patronize our Tour sponsors, also listed on this site.
Proceeds from the SGI Tour of Homes go toward maintenance and enhancement of the Cape St. George Lighthouse, the Keeper's House Museum, and St. George Lighthouse Park.

kill and restart the program that has the missing icon
or reboot the computer.
However, there are programs that do "listen" to that particular operating system message and sometimes their icon will reappear after explorer crashes/restarts and sometimes their icons will not reappear??? I can only guess that this is a timing issue - too many apps setting up icons right after a restart of explorer.

I'm currently not on my Windows 7 computer. Try this.
Right-click the taskbar. Right-click properties. Remove the tick from where it says, Hide inactive icons. Click apply. Or leave the tick in the box to hide inactive icons and instead click on Custom. Select the program you want in the list.(If it's there) To the right, you will see a drop down arrow. Click that, then from the drop down box choose always show.

Thanks for that info. I thought that it could be the program's fault and your answer satisfies confirms it. As for the other programs sitting in my system tray, their icons are consistently present. Just bummed out that there's no other way around this.

Microsoft excerpt:
The system tray (in short: systray, nowadays also called taskbar notification area) is the icon strip normally located near the right end of the task bar, next to the clock.
Some Windows 7 installations show a peculiar defect in that some systray icons disappear or, rather, do not appear, when the system is booted and the user logs on. The problem is even more prevalent on systems with autologon. The most frequently affected icons seem to be the speaker icon (sound volume) and the power/energy icon.

It is sad that the OP has explorer.exe crashing from time to time :-(
A script that watches for explorer to crash might help the OP. In the video below, MagicDisc restarts faster than Task Manager updates... so I added the Process ID column so that you can see the old and new instance running.
The script "4TrayIcons.exe" uses very little RAM and CPU... but note that there was only 256MB assigned to the Windows 7 32bit VM running that script in the video. Notice the differences in the RAM used by several things when 1.5GB was assigned:
You can add as many programs as you wish to this one script and it should restart them all. Let me know if you see a flaw in the method/code. I have not been trained for this kind of stuff.
;AutoIt Version: 188.8.131.52 #NoTrayIcon While 1 ;loops forever waiting for explorer to crash Do ;waits for desktop to disappear Sleep(1000) Until Not WinExists("Program Manager") ;restarts explorer/desktop for you Run(@WindowsDir & "\explorer.exe", @WindowsDir) ;waits for the desktop to appear WinWait("Program Manager", "", 5) ;give the desktop time to create the notification area Sleep(3000) ;;;;first program to close and restart ;usually closes on first try, unless the system is busy For $i = 1 To 100 ;try 100 times to close the program ProcessClose("MagicDisc.exe") Sleep(100) If Not ProcessExists("MagicDisc.exe") Then ExitLoop Next Run("C:\Program Files\MagicDisc\MagicDisc.exe") ;;;;second program to close and restart ;usually closes on first try, unless the system is busy For $i = 1 To 100 ;try 100 times to close the program ProcessClose("replace-this-name.exe") Sleep(100) If Not ProcessExists("replace-this-name.exe") Then ExitLoop Next Run("C:\Program Files\MagicDisc\replace-this-name.exe") ;;;;;you can copy/paste/change more code below here for more programs to close & restart WEnd
AutoIt uses UPX to compress the compiled code. That might set off your antivirus tool (more about that here). If it does, delete the compiled file and put the text file in the Startup folder instead. Or you can visit the AutoIt forums to learn how to turn off the UPX compression.
Here is a VirusTotal scan of the compiled code. Only Jiangmin did not like the UPX. Without UPX compression, VirusTotal showed two AV tools that did not like the compiled code. And finally, as a pure text file - no AV tools flagged the code.
But the OP really should find the reason for explorer crashing...
Hope this helps.

Topics: Delivery of Care, Health Costs, Hospitals, Insurance, Marketplace, Medicare, Politics, Quality, Health Reform, States, Uninsured
Jan 30, 2012
A selection of health policy stories from around the United States.
Boston Globe: Cost-Controlled Health Coverage Gaining Ground
In just three years, a new way of paying for medical care has spread rapidly across Massachusetts, and now more than 1.2 million people are covered by plans that put providers on a budget in an effort to restrain health spending. This means that about one in five Massachusetts residents are being treated by doctors working under these new cost-conscious arrangements, a Globe survey of insurers found — even before state lawmakers begin debating legislation to address soaring health insurance premiums by, in part, encouraging such plans (Kowalczyk, 1/30).
(St. Paul) Pioneer Press: Divided GOP Has Left Health Exchange Planning To Dayton
From a drab and windowless office in downtown St. Paul, a group of nine state workers is trying this year to develop a new way for Minnesotans to buy health insurance. The bland surroundings and seemingly mundane task contrast with a hot political reality — the essence of the work going on in the Golden Rule Building is so controversial that it has divided not just Republicans and Democrats, but even Republicans themselves. The state workers are planning what's called a health exchange, a new marketplace — largely online — for individuals and small employers to purchase insurance coverage beginning late next year (Snowbeck, 1/28).
McClatchy/The Kansas City Star: Two Kansas Judges Contributed To Anti-Abortion PAC
Campaign finance records show that at least two sitting Sedgwick County, Kan., judges have made contributions to the state's leading anti-abortion political action committee — after hearing cases involving abortion-related issues. Judges Eric Yost and Jeffrey Goering each gave $100 to the Kansans for Life PAC in 2011, according to the group's finance disclosure statement. In January 2011, Goering issued a temporary order prohibiting a Wichita doctor from using her office for abortions because her landlord believed it would create a nuisance (Helling, 1/30).
Texas Tribune: For Abortion Providers, Sonogram Law Is A Complication
This past fall, doctors were required to start performing a transvaginal sonogram at least 24 hours ahead of an abortion, a shift they say has had frustrating consequences for clinics and patients. Abortion opponents say the rationale behind the 24-hour delay is simple: Abortion should not be held to a lower standard than any other surgical procedure — where patients have a doctor's visit to learn the explicit details of their condition one day, and have the medical procedure on another (Ramshaw, 1/29).
McClatchy/The Anchorage Daily News: Alaska Medicare Clinics Are Seeing A Patient Shortage
Medicare patients flooded two new clinics targeting the older population when they opened in Anchorage last year — most other primary care doctors wouldn't take the federal insurance for seniors because they say Medicare pays too little. Recently, the demand to get into the clinics has eased, and clinic officials are beginning to wonder, what happened to the rest of the Medicare patients? (Shinohara, 1/30).
The CT Mirror: Wanted: 9,000+ Home Care Workers
The state has a massive need for more home care workers, but the lack of clear standards for the jobs makes it difficult for the work force development system to create training programs, an education and work force expert said Friday. … The state is expected to need more than 9,000 additional home care workers by 2016, and officials say meeting the demand is critical to meeting the state's goal of allowing significantly more people to receive long-term care at home or in community-based settings, rather than in institutions. By 2030, the population of Connecticut residents aged 65 and older is expected to grow by 64 percent, while the population under 65 is projected to shrink (Levin Becker, 1/27).
St. Louis Beacon: Medical Program Is A Pipeline To Rural Practice
At first, it sounds like a put-down when Dr. Angela Whitesell describes Lockwood, Mo., the place where she grew up. … Her decision to return to Lockwood, which has nearly 1,000 residents, is welcomed not only by the town but by the University of Missouri School of Medicine. For 16 years, the school has run the Rural Track Pipeline Program to boost the number of physicians serving rural parts of the state. Whitesell is an example of the program's success. So far, more than 450 medical students have taken part in the program, and many of the 108 graduates have chosen to practice medicine in rural areas of Missouri (Joiner, 1/27).
Houston Chronicle: Budget Cuts Spell Fewer Inspections At Assisted Living Facilities
The number of assisted living facilities in Texas is growing even as state budget cuts have reduced the number of inspectors, prompting concerns about the quality of care. Advocates of long-term-care residents say the cuts, which have led to less frequent inspections, are worrisome. … Industry representatives also are nervous. Annual state inspections, they say, are a good way to catch problems and fix them sooner (Lee, 1/29).
San Francisco Chronicle: Kaiser Workers Plan 1-Day Strike Tuesday
Thousands of Kaiser Permanente workers are expected to walk off the job Tuesday over contract disputes involving the health maintenance organization's mental health and optical employees. … Union leaders said that while they continue to negotiate with Kaiser, the main sticking points persist. They say they're striking over proposed cuts to health and retirement benefits, and what they describe as exceptionally long wait times for patients to receive individual psychiatric care (Colliver, 1/30).
The Sacramento Bee: Urgent Care Clinics Offer ER Option
Health care providers are increasingly using alternative primary care settings, especially urgent care clinics, to capture an after-hours market and divert traffic from emergency rooms to control rising medical costs. In the Sacramento region, Sutter Health is currently opening a network of urgent care clinics that offer after-hours care, while Kaiser Permanente is performing triage treatment in its waiting rooms and beefing up its advice phone line.

Boston Globe: Tufts Seeks Top Trauma Label; Rivals Want Delay
Tufts Medical Center is seeking to become a level one trauma center, an elite designation that would bring more prestige and potentially more patients to the Boston teaching hospital. But the surgery chiefs at four of Tufts' competitors are questioning whether the city needs another top trauma center and have asked public health officials to delay their decision (Kowalczyk, 1/30).

Upon initiative of the Embassy of Panama in Japan, students of the Faculty of Architecture of the University of Panama, Susan Lauterbach and Felix Mantilla, visited Japan from March 23rd to March 28th, 2014, in order to participate in a cultural tour sponsored by the company Kosugi Zoen, which is known for its long tradition in the art of Japanese gardening and natural landscaping.
The idea of the tour emerged after the trip to Panama of the President of Kosugi Zoen, Mr. Saki Kosugi, in September 2013, who delivered a lecture on the art of Japanese gardening at the University of Panama. The conference was organized by the Faculty of Architecture of the University of Panama, and was attended by many people who filled the conference hall, showing the great interest of Panamanian students for the Japanese culture.
The objective of Kosugi Zoen's cultural tour was to show various aspects of Japanese culture to Panamanian students, with the purpose of strengthening ties of friendship between Japan and future generations of Panamanians, as well as sharing the great care that Japan has for nature.
Also, the Panamanian diplomatic mission worked with Kosugi Zoen in the coordination of a tour for diplomats to the training center of the company in the city of Atami to learn the art of Japanese gardening in order to strengthen relations between the members of diplomatic corps in Tokyo and the citizens of Atami.
The cultural tour for Panamanian and Central American students concluded on March 28th, after visiting several historical sites such as Asakusa, Imperial Palace, Parliament, Atami, Kyoto, among others.

About 2 weeks ago we had Eid (Muslim holy festival after Ramadan). Government announced 4 days of holiday for the occasion. Every one was joyous and happy for dressing up meeting with relatives expecting gifts and what not, I was feeling the same way but had this concern which was not letting me get sync with the holiday spirit, and that was how the hell am I going to avoid all the juicy fatty meals through out the holiday. Started googling for tips found some which I followed to the best of my strengths. Find these tips below:
Here are Holiday Season Survival Tips
Don't skip your workouts.
No time for an hour workout? Try 20 minutes at a higher intensity. Or 20 minutes period.
Can't even find 20 minutes? Take the stairs, stand while at work, ride your bike to work, do squats while talking on the phone, park further away, etc. The little things add up.
Can't even do those? Stop Right There. Now you're just in total excuse mode, and excuses definitely don't yield success:)
Eat home-cooked meals as often as possible, since you're likely to attend a lot of holiday parties for many other meals.
Don't go to a holiday party hungry. Ever!
Watch what you drink at holiday parties. Not only do carbonated beverage calories add up, but they also cause impulse eating and overeating.
Drink a lot of water to keep well hydrated.
Sleep. Don't get so overbooked that the night routine suffers.
Stay inspired. I use this Pinterest board to stay inspired daily. I'm always adding to it to keep the motivation and momentum.
These survival tips are not rocket science. They are merely meant to be reminders - for myself as well and worked pretty good for me during Eid holidays!
The bottom line is that the healthier we stay, the happier we are all season long.

Good to see that the MAX 16984 chip can survive +/-8 KV ESD (direct contact)...but what is the point here since the phone circuit might not be capable of handling the same level of disturbances? I believe the phone circuits are not designed to automotive standards. So what makes a difference here?

Second last-resort gTLD auction raises $14.3m
ICANN has raised $14.3 million auctioning off three new gTLDs — .buy, .tech and .vip.
It was the second batch of "last resort" auctions, managed by ICANN and Power Auctions, in which the winning bids are placed in a special ICANN fund.
Notably, while Google participated in all three auctions, it failed to win any, setting a reassuring precedent for any smaller applicants that are set to face the deep-pocketed giant in future auctions.
.tech was the biggest-seller, fetching $6,760,000 after nine rounds of bidding.
The winner was Dot Tech LLC, which beat Google, Minds + Machines, Donuts, NU DOT CO, and Uniregistry.
.buy went to Amazon for $4,588,888, beating Google, Donuts and Famous Four Media. The bidding lasted seven rounds.
Finally, .vip sold to Minds + Machines for $3,000,888 after Google, Donuts, I-Registry and VIP Registry dropped out.
The prices are in the same ball-park as we've inferred from previous, private auctions managed by Applicant Auction (a company affiliated with Power Auctions).
That's notable because the first last resort auction, for .信息, fetched just $600,000 when it sold to Amazon back in June.
As far as we can tell, last-resort auctions do not necessarily keep prices low, even though the losing bidders in this week's auctions will have walked away empty-handed.
In private auctions, losers leave holding a share of the winner's bid.
This week, most of the $14.3 million raised will go into a special ICANN fund.
Akram Atallah, president of ICANN's Global Domains Division said in a statement:
The proceeds from these Auctions will be separated and reserved until the Board determines a plan for the appropriate use of the funds through consultation with the community. We continue to encourage parties to reach agreements amongst themselves to resolve contention.
The ICANN community has been chatting about possible uses for auction funds for years.
Ideas such as subsidizing new gTLD applicants from poorer nations in future rounds and investing in internet infrastructure in the developing world have been floated.
Victims of first confirmed new gTLD collision respond: "Fuck Google"
A number of companies have experienced errors on their networks due to collisions with a newly introduced gTLD.
The initial outcry from victims can be characterized as a storm of profanity, which it could be argued is a good thing for security but not great for ICANN's reputation.
The collisions, which I believe are the first to be publicly and widely reported, are due to Google's new gTLD .prod, which was delegated September 1.
Google intends to use the TLD as a shorthand for "product", but it seems some companies use it internally to mean "production", meaning production servers rather than testing or development servers.
Issues started being reported on online fora on September 3, with Google unfairly bearing the brunt of the initial blame. Here are a few of the earliest examples from Twitter:
Hey Google, fuck you for making .prod a valid TLD, what the fuck is wrong with you
— eesperan (@eesperan) September 3, 2014
anyone else having fun name resolution issues because of the new .prod tld google just put online? http://t.co/jq104uAym0
— Chris Johnson (@point9repeating) September 3, 2014
.prod is now a TLD & basically broke the internet. (http://t.co/kB5JIZl1HE). This is why I didn't use prod as subdomain, @Drew_Stokes
— Allan Parsons (@allanparsons) September 3, 2014
Well .prod is now a TLD. Found out the fun way. #google #icann http://t.co/rbt4JIASgn
— jeremy avnet (@brainsik) September 3, 2014
A day later, Reddit user "cunttard", under a post entitled "Fuck Google", wrote:
Google recently activated prod. TLD.
They also decided to wildcard DNS all entries to 127.0.53.53 to resolve name collisions for internal organisations. All because they wanted .prod for product? Why not fucking request .product?
The implications have been fucking horrendous. I am in the process of helping a mate unfuck his organisations DNS, which heavily relied on resolver search $FQDN to map xyz.prod to xyz.prod.$FQDN. Note this wasn't even used as an internal TLD. Now they're all resolving short names to 127.0.53.53. Lesson learnt; always use FQDN everywhere.
I'm just fucking sick of ICANN / Google continuing to fuck DNS.
LinuxQuestions user "fantasygoat" started a thread entitled "New tLD .prod is messing with my configs", in which he wrote:
I used to be able to refer to just the subdomain in a DNS lookup, like "www1.prod" and it would know I meant "www1.prod.example.com", my local domain. I've been using prod.example.com for decades as the production subdomain for various things.
Now it resolves to 127.0.53.53, which I believe is ICANN's hack DNS answer for tLDs.
So, I have a bunch of config files without the domain name and it's messing stuff up. Does anyone have a workaround so I can have my DNS respond to .prod requests as a subdomain of my domain?
I've found a couple of other examples on various mailing lists and web forums with systems administrators experiencing similar issues over the last week.
This, it seems to me, shows that ICANN's hack for mitigating the risks of name collisions, developed by JAS Advisors, is working as expected.
In each reported case of a .prod collision I've been able to find, the admin either had already worked out that he needed to use a fully-qualified domain name (eg www.prod.example.com instead of www.prod) or was swiftly advised to do so by those responding to his post.
Most seem to have spotted that instead of returning NXDOMAIN errors, Google is returning the IP address 127.0.53.53, which was chosen because it's an internal IP and because 53 is the TCP/IP port number for DNS.
Diverting to 127.0.53.53 is designed to catch the eye, alerting admins to the need to correctly configure their networks.
It certainly seems to be doing that, but it's not winning ICANN or new gTLD registries any new friends.
Nobody has yet reported death or injury due to a collision.
Update: There has been one previously reported collision, concerning .guru.
Google beats Microsoft to .docs
Google and Microsoft seem to have settled their contention set for the .docs new gTLD, with Google emerging the victor.
Microsoft withdrew its application for .docs this week.
It's not clear how the deal was made, but Google is known to have participated in private auctions for other strings.
Google Docs is of course Google's office document service.
Microsoft also has a Docs service, a collaboration with Facebook at Docs.com, but it seems to have been in beta since April 2010 and, by the looks of the site, isn't what you'd call a success.
Amazon and Google deal on .talk, .play, .drive and others
Google and Amazon have started making deals to settle their new gTLD contention sets.
Google won three contention sets against Amazon this week, judging by the latest withdrawals, while Amazon won two.
Amazon won .talk and .you after Google, the only other applicant, withdrew.
Neither company appears to have a "You" brand, unless you count YouTube, but the .talk settlement strongly suggests that Google Talk, the company's instant messaging client, is on the way out.
When Google applied for .talk in 2012 it intended to give Talk users custom domains to act as a contact point, but in 2013 Google started to indicate that it will be replaced as a brand by Google Hangouts.
The withdrawal seems to suggest that the existence of a gTLD application, a relatively small investment, is not an overwhelming factor when companies consider product rebranding.
I wonder what effect a live, active TLD will have on similar decisions in future.
But Google won the two-horse races for .dev and .drive and after Amazon withdrew its applications.
Google has a product called Google Drive, while Amazon runs Amazon Cloud Drive. Both companies have developer programs, though Google's is arguably the more substantial of the two.
Google has also won .play — Google Play is its app store — after Amazon, Radix and Star Registry's withdrawals. Amazon does not have a Play brand.
Google has also withdrawn its application for .book, leaving six remaining applicants, including Amazon, in the contention set.
I don't currently know whether these contention sets were settled privately or via a third-party auction.
Four reasons Google Domains isn't a Go Daddy killer
Judging by DI's traffic spike last night, there's a lot of interest in Google Domains, Google's forthcoming entry into the domain name registrar market.
And judging by some of the early commentary, it seems that many people are already assuming that the service will be an overnight success.
Some people already seem to be willing to write off market leader Go Daddy specifically, for some peculiar reason.
I've even heard speculation that Google timed its announcement to screw with Go Daddy's imminent IPO, which strikes me as veering into conspiracy theory territory.
While I've no doubt Go Daddy and other mass-market retail registrars will be watching Google's move with interest and concern — and there are some reasons to be worried — let's not jump the gun here.
Let's calm the hyperbole a little. Off the top of my head, here are a handful of reasons not to get excited just yet.
1. It could be a really shitty product
There seems to be an assumption in some quarters that whatever Google brings to market will be automatically incredible, but the company really doesn't have the track record to support that assumption.
Sure, its search engine may be great and services such as Gmail and Adsense may be pretty good, but have you ever tried Blogger?
Do you actually use Google+, or do you only have an account because Google forced you?
The truth is that lots of Google products fail.
And we haven't even seen Google Domains yet. Nobody has. Only Google employees and their buddies are going to get beta access, so it seems we're going to be waiting a while before we can judge.
2. There's no 24×7 support
Google Domains will launch with support via email and phone from 9am to 9pm US Eastern time, Monday to Friday.
Would you switch to a registrar that doesn't have round-the-clock support seven days a week? As a small business owner who makes his living from his web site, I sure wouldn't.
If Google Domains gains traction you can expect support hours to be expanded pretty quickly, but a lack of 24×7 support at launch will keep many customers away.
3. It's not free
Some people seem to be obsessed with the notion that Google is going to give away free domains, and that kind of commentary is continuing even though we know Google Domains will charge $12 for a .com.
Its email service may come at no additional cost, but its email service is Gmail, and that's already free. Google could hardly start charging an add-on fee for something that's always been free.
Google Domains may offer free privacy too, but so do lots of other registrars.
In future, Google registry arm Charleston Road Registry may give away free names in some of its new gTLDs, but if it does so that price will have to be available to all registrars, not just Google Domains.
Google Domains isn't free. It's not even the cheapest registrar on the market.
4. Go Daddy is gigantic
According to its recent regulatory filings, Go Daddy has 57 million domains under management and 12 million customers.
How many of those do you think will make the switch to Google? How many will even know that such a switch is possible?
Switching registrars may be relatively straightforward if everything you own is parked, but it becomes more complex when you're running your web site, email and so forth on your registrar's platform.
These kinds of small business owners are the customers being targeted by Google and Go Daddy, and if they already have web sites they're likely already experiencing registrar lock-in.
According to its announcement, Google is targeting greenfield opportunities — the 55% of small businesses it estimates don't have an online presence today — rather than grabbing market share from rivals.
The "small businesses need to get online" story is common to every press release issued by every web host and domain registrar with a price promotion to plug.
When Google teamed up with Blacknight to give away domains for free — for FREE, so it is, so it is — to Irish small businesses, it managed to sign up 10,000 in one year.
How long do you think it will take Google to get to 57 million names under management?

Vita TV is dead. Long live PlayStation TV.
The name may have changed for North America, but the concept seems to be much the same. The small box will allow PS4 games to be played on a second TV in the same home (provided you have a PS4), stream video and music from various services, will play "hundreds of PS3 titles" via PlayStation Now and play "most" Vita titles and older PS classics.
PlayStation TV will retail for $99 for just the box of for $139 in a bundle that includes an 8 GB memory card, a DualShock 3 controller, an HDMI cable and a voucher good for a copy of Lego Movie: The Video Game. Look for it later this year, or pre-order one now through Amazon if you simply can't wait.

MANCHESTER, ENGLAND | For the third straight year, Chicago will be a crucial part of the Ultimate Fighting Championship's broadcast partnership with Fox.
The UFC will once again return to the United Center in January for a nationally televised show on Fox the week before the network hosts the Super Bowl. The card falls in the off week in between the NFL's conference championship games and the Super Bowl.
UFC President Dana White this past week announced several key components of the promotion's 2014 broadcast schedule, and Chicago was one of them.
In 2014, the UFC will put on more shows than it ever has before, growing to 35 from the 32 that will take place in 2013. Included in that group are 13 pay-per-view events, four events on "big" Fox, 14 shows on Fox Sports 1 and four cards on Fox Sports 2.
The UFC is planning a major international push in 2014, including six planned shows in Europe in locales ranging from London to Lodz, Poland, so for Chicago to again draw the first Fox event of the calendar year appears to be a feather in the city's cap and an indicator that the promotion and the network have been pleased with the results the first two visits.
In 2012, UFC on Fox 2 took place at the UC and was headlined by a light heavyweight fight between then-Chicago resident and Michigan State wrestling product Rashad Evans and Penn State wrestling alum Phil Davis. In 2013, UFC on Fox 6 featured a flyweight title fight between champion Demetrious Johnson and challenger John Dodson.
UFC on Fox 2 drew an announced attendance of nearly 17,000 for a $1.27 million live gate. UFC on Fox 6 brought in more than 16,000 fans, again for a $1.27 million gate.

ARLINGTON (AP) Right-handed reliever Manny Delcarmen has signed a minor league contract with the Texas Rangers.
Delcarmen was assigned Thursday to Triple-A Round Rock.
The 29-year-old Delcarmen was 2-2 with a 5.14 ERA in 18 games for Triple-A Tacoma in the Seattle organization. He went to spring training on a minor league contract, which included a clause that allowed him to ask for his release. The Mariners granted that this week.
Delcarmen was 11-6 with a 3.89 ERA and three saves in 289 relief appearances for Boston from 2005-10.
The Rangers also said Thursday that right-hander Mason Tobin had Tommy John surgery.

Preaching Daily - February 4
Today's Word for Pastors...
Proverbs 10:19
When words are many, sin is not absent, but he who holds his tongue is wise.
Today's Preaching Insight...
Teach Us How To Pray
There may be no more familiar prayer in the entire world than the Lord's Prayer. It does not seem to matter where you go in the world; if you were to invite people to repeat those words with you the vast majority of people could say them. We may not know many other portions of scripture, and we may not know any other prayer or passage well enough to say from memory, but most of us could work our way through the Lord's Prayer. There might be some division over one part of that prayer, and that would involve whether to say forgive us our trespasses, or forgive us our debts or perhaps forgive us our sins.
The Luke version of the prayer found in Luke 11, which is the version preferred by Roman Catholics, differs from the Matthew version, because it does not include the last three lines about the kingdom, the power and the glory forever. However, with those few differences set aside, most people in this country and in many places around the world could repeat the words of the Lord's Prayer. It is a prayer that many of us learned in our childhood and continue to repeat over and over again for the rest of our lives.
What concerns me this morning is whether or not repeating the prayer is all that we are doing. Has the Lord's Prayer become like the Pledge of Allegiance or the words of the national anthem; words that we speak without really listening to or considering what we are saying? I believe that the words of the Lord's Prayer are among the most revolutionary words ever spoken. When you stop to consider what those words actually say, and if you should decided to live out your life in accordance with what those words actually say, your whole life would begin to move in an entirely different direction.

Traveling through New England, a motorist stopped for gas in a tiny village. "What type of town is this?" he asked the station attendant.
"All depends," the native drawled. "Do you mean by them that has to live in this dad-blamed, moth-eaten, dust-covered dump, or by them that's merely enjoying its quaint and picturesque rustic charms for a short spell?"

"There was insufficient evidence to definitively link
the pilot's prior intake of alcohol and/or cannabis with the
occurrence. However, the adverse effects on pilot performance of
post-alcohol impairment, recent cannabis use and fatigue could not
be discounted as contributory factors to the occurrence. In
particular, the possibility that the pilot experienced some degree
of spatial disorientation during the turn as a combined result of
the manoeuvre, associated head movements and alcohol-induced
balance dysfunction could not be discounted."

Bureau's March 2004 report on a fatal accident that claimed the
lives of six people onboard a Piper Cherokee Six that went down
September 26, 2002 when pilot Andrew Morris attempted to turn back
to the runway after the plane's engine failed on takeoff from
Hamilton Island. The ATSB ruled that although high levels of
cannabis were found in Morris' body after the crash, it was
impossible to determine if that played a role in the accident.

Sean Nicholson provides us with an excellent list of questions to ask when we care enough to not want to waste time with someone who talks the talk, but cannot walk the walk of social media mastery.
He promotes these questions to help us tell the legitimate social media folks from the fake "wizards", "gurus", and "experts". However, I think with a little tweaking, this list will work for checking out any consultant or independent "expert".
BONUS: One gut-bustingly funny cartoon, as far as I'm concerned:)

Discs of Fury at the Crocodile
Discs of Fury vs. the Bat Lord ::: Photo by Josh Lovseth
For one night only, the Discs of Fury brought another epic tale to the Crocodile stage, an original rock opera that makes others pale in comparison, or at least pale that they're in any way associated with these laugh-a-minute goofballs of uncommon musical ability. The journey of the pre-destined hero has been rehashed countless times over, but it's never been told quite like the story of Marvin Lazer and his quest to vanquish the Evil Bat Lord of Ganymede. Though Discs of Fury is by it's very nature making fun of the classical hero story arc and so all of the elements are familiar, in no usual fantasy tale would you expect the mark of the hero to be a "THUG LIFE" tattoo across the span of his back or have a typical Van Damme action movie training montage reinterpreted into a live (and highly comedic) form.
Though the performance is an unabashed parody, it's a parody with real guts: Discs of Fury are an honest to god arena rock super-group. Every instrument has a massive presence, to match with protagonist Marvin Lazer's son-of-Freddie-Mercury pipes. A joke transformed into a Queen song will be almost invariably funnier than the original. An entire joke hero story expressed in song is pee-your-pants funny. For an hour and a half.
As promised WE Wrote the Book on Connectors were incorporated into the story, as shiny sequined "Captains of the Future," with drummer Rick filling the shoes of the JERKBOT, of course. (Because Rick IS a jerk.)

Photography James White Styling Darryl Rodrigues Make-up Topolino Hair Laurent Phillippon Special thanks Lionel Peralta
To please his parents, Murkudis took up his studies in chemistry but abandoned them two years later to go to fashion school in Berlin. He worked one season for Wolfgang Joop and then met Helmut Lang, who was preparing his very first show in Munich. Like Lang, Murkudis is fundamentally utilitarian and works primarily within a vocabulary of men's tailored suits and simple shift dresses. But Murkudis never comes off as cool or standoffish. He draws from a panoply of references, so his collections can be seen as eclectic—mixing, say, flighsuits and pilot coats with ribbon dresses straight out of Greek folklore. His Fall–Winter 1999–2000 collection began with a picture he found of the Russian Ballet. The point of departure was from behind-the-scenes, featuring reversible pants in jersey and nylon with rehearsal tutus worn over them and dresses crafted from tulle and nylon, or lace and tissue-thin plastic. "I tried to please women with this collection more than in any collection before," Murkudis says, adding that this collection was a turning point for him in more ways than one. "We used really beautiful fabrics. In the beginning you can't afford them. I had to buy cheap—fabrics for five francs, linings and things. It's a real challenge."

Mobile: 541-740-7170
Oregon State is one of only two land, sea, space and sun grant institutions in the U.S., holds a top tier research designation from the Carnegie Foundation, and is the state's largest public research university. Oregon State research totaled almost $263 million in Fiscal Year 2013, and private sector financing reached nearly $36 million, a 65 percent increase in the past five years.
The OSU Research Agenda, integrated with the university's Strategic Plan, guides faculty inquiry in OSU's three Signature Areas of Distinction: Advancing the Science of Sustainable Earth Ecosystems; Improving Human Health and Wellness; and Promoting Economic Growth and Social Progress. Faculty engage graduate and undergraduate students in research to both advance this agenda and help develop the R&D talent needed by academic, government, non profit and private industry organizations.
The OSU Advantage connects business with faculty expertise, student talent and world-class facilities to research solutions, bring ideas to market and launch companies.

OSU Advantage Update: As you may be aware, President Ray appointed me as the Interim Vice President for Research following the departure of Rick Spinrad, who accepted a position as Chief Scientist of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in Washington, D.C. In my new role, I would like to share an important organizational update. I will continue to lead the implementation of the university's strategy to expand industry partnering and commercialization of research discoveries. Brian Wall, the director of OSU's Office for Commercialization and Corporate Development, will have expanded responsibilities as director of the Oregon State University Advantage program, managing its day-to-day operations. I will continue to provide executive leadership for the OSU Advantage, a university initiative that began in 2013 to help commercialize innovations, launch new companies, connect existing business with faculty expertise and student talent, and provide Oregon with work-ready graduates needed for economic progress. In his expanded role, Brian will report to me. Additionally, both Brian and I will continue our involvement with the South Willamette Valley Regional Accelerator and Innovation Network, or RAIN, which was made possible by legislative funding of $3.75 million last year. OSU and the University of Oregon, along with the cities of Eugene, Springfield, Albany and Corvallis, are collaborating on this broad initiative that leverages the research and educational expertise of academia and moves it toward private economic growth. I represent OSU on the RAIN board of directors, and Brian serves on the RAIN executive working group. The OSU Advantage Accelerator is a key component of RAIN. Please join me in congratulating Brian on his leadership role with the OSU Advantage and offering your support as he directs this important work on behalf of the university. -- Ron Adams, Interim VP for Research

Gosh Ken, that "Golf & Guitars" concert is seriously short of female artists! Jana Kramer didn't have a rider clause limiting female competition did she? (lol)
Wow, a male country music singer gets arrested for public drunkeness in Texas! I'm guessing this must be the first time this has ever happened…(lol)
I've decided that Dex Romweber should join the Alabama Shakes! It would be like a marriage made in, well, Tuscaloosa! (lol)
I really enjoy the American Songwriter downloads! Its fun the delete the files of music downloads I don't care for, well as long as they are free anyway.
While we are on the subject of Americana music, tomorrow night's Music City Roots will feature Chatham County Line, Henry Wagons, The Mosier Brothers, Lilly Winwood, Kindling Stone, and Webb Wilder will be guest host. I've had the pleasure of seeing Chatham County Line in concert and those guys kick some serious bluegrassy butt! (lol)
Rick, I know you're (half) kidding, but the artists all completely volunteer their time without any riders at all. It's a testament to their generosity that they all come and dedicate a couple days to the youth of Northern California. All of our events have tended to be a little more guy-heavy just based on the fact that more of them are avid golfers and fewer of the females are.
We added a seventeenth artist today- Mr. Chuck Wicks will be participating in his fourth straight Golf & Guitars.
It's sad to see what looks like the professional and personal disintegration of the guy who ranks arguably as the greatest country SINGER of his generation.
Ken, its a shame that there aren't more American female country singers of Korean descent or that imbalance situation might even out a bit! (lol)
I downloaded the American Songwriter freebies and appreciate the fact they are high quality 320 kps MP3's. None the less I did wind up deleting all of them after a quick listen although the guitar driven track by the Bahamas was almost a keeper. You get what you pay for…
Interesting list of artists with the most Top-10s. It's a bit surprising that Waylon and Webb Pierce made it as high as they did, because neither of them had many hits before age 30 (Pierce didn't have any before 30) and they were both finished, hitwise, by their late 40's.
I predict that Eddy Arnold's record of 92 top-tens will stand, even though Strait is only seven hits shy of it. With the slow pace of the chart today, it would take Strait years to issue all those singles, and I think the odds are that country radio will start to freeze out even King George–like it did with Haggard, Jones, Conway, Willie and everyone else.
