Some high praise handed out to the Hudson River. Our Christian Farrell has more on the latest recognition received by the grand old river.
KINGSTON, N.Y. -- The paddles pierced the water early Saturday at Kingston Point Beach.These Kingston kayakers are actually taking part in the 13th annual Hudson River Valley Ramble.
"The National Park Service called the Hudson River Valley the landscape that defined America. And the ramble hopes to connect people with that heritage landscape," said Mark Castiglione of the Hudson River Valley Greenway.
However, according to Castiglione the ramble is also very much about utilizing the river to have fun. 96 designated public access sites certainly now makes that much easier to do.
"The challenge in the Hudson River corridor is that about 70 percent of the shoreline is blocked off by the railroads. So, it was a real challenge to figure out how to get the public access with that constraint," said Castiglione.
The Hudson River Greenway Water Trail actually stretches 256 miles all the way from the Adirondacks down to Manhattan. Making it the longest single water trail in the entire country.
Now the water trail has the distinction of being designated National Water Trail by the U.S. Department of the Interior.
"These are the cream of the crop of paddling trails nationwide. They're the best managed, the longest, the best access to the riverways," said Karl Beard of the National Parks Service.
There are only nine such designations in the country.
"The water trail and this designation I think will really attract more people here to get on the Hudson River, and support our region's economy," said Castiglione.
The Hudson River Valley Ramble continues on weekends throughout September.

Convicted felon accused of possessing stun gun
MANCHESTER - A convicted felon was discovered with a stun gun after an officer pulled his car over after seeing it run a stop sign, police said.
Elmer Valladares Rivera, 29, of 159 Concord St., Apt. 1, Manchester, is charged with being a habitual offender and being a felon in possession of an electronic defense weapon.
He was arrested about 2:30 a.m. Wednesday after an officer saw a car go through a stop sign at the intersection of Lowell and Maple streets, according to a police news release.
Valladares Rivera was identified by his New Hampshire non-driver identification card. Police said Valladares Rivera's license is under suspension for being a certified habitual offender. Police said Valladares Rivera had the stun gun in a case on his right hip.
Officers checked Valladares Rivera's criminal history and found a felony conviction in 2011 in Hillsborough County Superior Court for possession of a controlled drug with intent to sell.
He could enter no plea to the felony charges at his arraignment Wednesday morning in 9th Circuit Court, Manchester District Division, so a probable cause hearing was set for Dec. 19. The violation will be addressed then.

E Cigarette Unveiling If you are a smoker, one new invention you may have heard of is the electronic cigarette. It is also known as the E Cigarette. Due to legislation that is making it illegal in many places to smoke in public areas, these electronic versions of traditional smokes are making it possible for smokers to enjoy their habit wherever they please. This new development allows for the experience of smoking a traditional smoke without the health issues or legalities that surround conventional cigarettes. The E Cigarette looks, feels, and tastes just like a traditional smoke; however, it functions quite differently. E Cigarettes do not burn tobacco. Instead, when you inhale, it activates a censor that releases water vapor that contains nicotine. There is even a tobacco scent agent that simulates the smell and flavor of actual tobacco. All of this adds up to a great smoking experience without the health issues and without disturbing your neighbor. You can avoid the intake of the thousands of chemicals that traditional smokes contain. Aside from being a healthy alternative to traditional smokes, the best part about E Cigarettes is the fact that they are completely … (Read More....)

Hi to all!
I just recently changed my sharing settings for my laptop to have access over my desktop which i keep my files. After customizing the home network and the network settings (which it work for the access i wanted), some things started to behave weird... (in the desktop: Win 7 U x64).
Windows explorer doesn' t respond normally. When i open my computer it makes a big deal to load the icons and not all the properties are displayed when i change the view in details and even my computer doesn't load. From the left bar, if i extend my disks i can see the content inside them without problem. But it has a problem with viewing the thumbnails (the big tiles), for example in the images, and also doesn't so the right preview of the image. The same as in my computer happens in the network section, doesn' t load at all, but can select the location f.e. my laptop, left from the side bar, which by the way is constantly thinking!
I am not very sure what did i change in the Network sharing settings, but I thing that is the problem! But really can't figure it out , neither I can find a solution online.. Any suggestions?
I Forgot to mention, that when I save with Firefox an image, in the save window, things are working normally...!
Your lights please!

It would have been nice if I had one!
I left the pc scaning with avira all night, and it is virus free. But I just saw that some windows that I had cklicked yesterday night and didn't open I found them open, and the same with Photoshop. It was freezing on loading for a loooong time, and I found it open on morning as well...
I believe it has something to do with the home network... something making a loop, and freezes everything on explorer...

Remove all the shares you setup, reboot and see if things are okay. If yes then start over setting up sharing. Ask any questions you may have here.

When Peter Uihlein was 9 years old, Tiger Woods called Uihlein's home in Massachusetts. Woods had phoned to talk shop with Wally Uihlein, Peter's father, who is the chairman and chief executive of Acushnet, the $1.4 billion company that owns Titleist, FootJoy and Pinnacle. Peter, an up-and-coming junior, had an opportunity to speak with Woods. It was a chance to mine the world's No. 1 golfer for a nugget of wisdom, or at the very least for Peter to induce wide-eyed envy from his pals on the practice green. But wracked with nerves, the youngster couldn't get himself to lift the receiver. "I choked," he says today, laughing.
In the dozen or so years since that episode, Uihlein has exhibited far greater poise when exposed to big-time golfers, and not just when the likes of Davis Love III or Zach Johnson have dropped by the house for a barbecue. Uihlein is no longer intimidated, he's intimidatingand he has been at every level of his ascent, from New England's peewee ranks, to the competitive IMG Leadbetter Golf Academy in Florida, to the powerhouse golf team at Oklahoma State University, where Uihlein is now a junior. In 2010, he was named a first-team All-American. At the last Walker Cup, he went a perfect 4-0. And in August, Uihlein won the U.S. Amateur, solidifying his perch atop the World Amateur Golf Rankings and earning himself a tee time with Phil Mickelson in this month's Masters. "He's got the game for Augustahe hits it three miles and he putts and chips it like a dream," says Uihlein's college coach, Mike McGraw. "Is that a recipe for something good to happen or what?"
That Uihlein (pronounced "You-line") has rolled through golf's amateur ranks may have something to do with his father's clout, but really, free golf shoes and customground wedges can only take a player so far. Uihlein's talent is better classified as one of golf's happy coincidences. Peter is not Wally, and Wally is not a gonzo golf dad who ordered his R&D guys to cobble his progeny into some sort of robo-golfer. In fact, Wally so respects his son's space that he's been known to lurk in the distance at Peter's tournaments, binoculars in hand. "I watch from afar and only provide counsel if requested," Wally says.
Still, that hasn't quelled the inevitable expectations placed on Peter by others, or, thanks to the ubiquity of his father's brands, the occasional charge of favoritism. Not only did Titleist sponsor the Leadbetter school during Peter's enrollment there, but it is also the national sponsor of the AJGA, which twice named Peter its player of the year. Titleist is also a generous benefactor of the OSU golf program. So, yes, there have been apparent conflicts of interest.
But it's not as if Peter's a .190 hitter who bats cleanup because his dad's the coach. "He outperformed everyone in junior golf," says Tommy Mou, an IMG friend who now plays at the University of Florida. "Whatever Peter has gotten, he's deserved." Uihlein's detractors might also not realize that he was once turned away from an AJGA event for not satisfying an age requirement (he was too young by a matter of months); that his college coach benched him for nearly an entire season; and those dinged-up irons in his bag? Sure, they're Titleist 680s, but they're six years old.
Uihlein's desire to forge his own identity became clear to his IMG fitness trainer and mentor, David Donatucci, the first time Donatucci heard an academy peer of Uihlein's hit him up for free gear. "Peter's response was, 'Listen, my dad works for the company. I don't,' " says Donatucci, who is now the director of fitness and performance for the PGA of America. "He drew a line in the sand right there to all the kids, saying, 'That's not what I do or who I am.' "
Which is something those closest to Uihlein have known since he began, at age 2, whacking plastic balls over the kitchen counter. "Peter has been overachieving for many years," Wally says. "He is more his own man than he will ever get credit for."
In a 250-seat lecture hall at Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, Peter Uihlein's geology professor is rattling on about tar sand and oil shale. Uihlein may be familiar with the benefits of such earthly wonders as graphite and titanium, but this morning's subject escapes his purview.
"'Oil shale' is actually a bit of a misnomer," the professor shouts excitedly, waving a sample of the shiny black rock above his head. "It actually contains an enormous amount of untapped oil!"
Uihlein is in jeans and a gray Red Sox hoodie (he's a rabid fan), and his sandy-brown curls spill out from beneath a Masters cap. Seated to his immediate left are three other members of the tightly knit golf team: Brad Gehl (aka "Snail"), Ian Davis ("Bean"), and Kevin Dougherty ("Slug"). In their customary seats near the back of the auditorium, the golfers half pay attention as they peck away on their PDA's and in hushed tones recount an old "Saturday Night Live" sketch. Uihlein scans a quiz that had been returned to him earlier in class. His grade, scribbled at the end of a list of questions about fault creeps, points of rupture and seismic waves: 72.
"Seventy-six," Uihlein mutters under his breath when asked how he fared. "Four-point curve."
In moments like this, you could understand if Uihleinafter two-plus years of lectures and lab sessionsfelt the urge to pack up his books and pursue his lifelong dream of playing the PGA Tour; his friend and former teammate, Rickie Fowler, darted after two years at OSU, and look at how he's doing. But Uihlein is in no rush, and not just because he dates a pom girl, junior Kelly Johnson. Or because he relishes pancake-eating contests with his coach. Or because remaining an amateur in 2011 will reward him, as reigning U.S. Amateur champion, with a handful of Tour starts.

Nov 7, 2014I'll go ahead and admit I've only played about half of this. Compared to Galaxy this game is uninspiring and boring. It is also too easy. I suppose this would be a good thing for younger players but for me a disappointment. I really enjoy challenging Mario games but this was a walk through (so far as I played). I also miss the two handed controller that works so well with Galaxy. This was tough on my thumbs and difficult to manage depth for me at times. I thought the world was just pieced together with no grand theme or idea to immerse myself in. All in all a boring game for me. Even two and three player games didn't increase the excitement. In comparison I think multiplayer Mario & Luigi is a blast.… Expand
Dec 14, 2013Gameplay gets pretty boring after the first 3 worlds. You get the cat suit in the first level and after that there is pretty much nothing new. Id be fine with same old in HD if it would copy the things the forums and fans have been asking for. You hear people ask for a "open world" type of game with lots of secrets and collecting. They give us a "semi 3d" game which seems to just add a could of inches in depth to the recent 2d releases.
Oh and the run button, with the speed increasing in bursts probably the worst idea ive seen in a while. It solved an non existing problem.
On the positive side, nintendo did pretty well considdering the hardware they used. Some levels looked pretty damn good. I cant help but think that a "true 3d" game would have been hard to make, they would probably have to lower the resolution on a lot of textures. Maybe this was the best the console could pull off, and if thats the case, i guess they did the best they could.
Last but not least, enough with the damn gamepad. The community has said what it thinks about it. Let me turn it off and go on with my pro controller. Thatd probably free a bit of processing power too, which could improve the visuals for future games.… Expand
Jan 30, 2014Very disappointing. You can only move in 8 directions, it feels like a massive step back.
I can imagine most Nintendo fans want a super Mario 64 or super Mario sunshine type game, not this HD 3DS title.
The magic of roaming around and exploring a landscape had disappeared into little vignettes of uninspiring micro lands.
Jul 28, 2014Do not purchase this game! One of the worst games I've played in over two years. Cons: The option to pick up/jump on your fellow player(s) from Super Mario Bros. Wii is still there and it still causes mass amount of frustration amongst the couple/group. The cat suit is not great and hopefully will be forgotten in future entries into the main series. Most of the music doesn't feel like "Mario" and is continuously rehashed throughout the game. Touching or rubbing the game pad was distracting and ruined the pace of any level requiring it. Pros: Captain Toad and Plessie levels were intriguing and a welcome break from the main entry. The mic blowing to discover hidden objects and deter mini goombas was interesting, but, did not add quality to the game. The double cherries were also interesting but were used very rarely. Having all four of the classic characters from Super Mario Bros. 2 instead of 2 toads was the best thing about this game.… Expand
Dec 15, 2013Feels like an extended 2d platformer. Barely worth calling 3d when compared to previous Mario games.
* The laging runing with the run button is one of the worst things Ive experienced in a Mario game.
* The graphics look last gen in every way possible. Not horrible, but they dont breath any inovation at all. Its good seeing nintendo in HD finally, but I would have hoped they would set the bar higher than the consoles that are close to 10 years old. If this is the best the console can pull off in a very narrow level, its sad to think about how limited they will be with an open world in the next zelda game.
* The only positive things is that its not set in space like the last two instalments and doesnt have the gravity function or the star collecting with the wii remote. That and the possibility to use the pro controller (at least most of the time).… Expand
Sep 9, 2014It looks like trash and plays like a 5 year old's video game. The levels are simple, short and offer no real challenge. I have had mild fun playing the worse Mario game ever when playing with others, but once your playing single player you'll see how shallow this game really is. I'm SHOCKED that any professional reviewer scored this a 10/10 they must have been some real hardcore Iwata groupies, I hope IGN, Game Spot & others FIRE these clowns, their reviews are very misleading. The only reason why so many WII U owners try saying it's excellent because they are happy with anything NINTENDO SPITS at them after the long drought the WII U had and still has. Seriously Nintendo if your going to make us wait 3 to 6 months inbetween games please don't give us a Mario crossed with Dora The Explorer game.… Expand
Feb 3, 2014If you already own Super Mario 3D Land, and play videogames alone, don't bother buying this. The only upgrade is the multiplayer and the shiny graphics. Definitely not worth $60 for yet another one of Nintendo's rehashed Mario titles.
Jan 21, 2014I was really hoping Nintendo would bring a system selling 3D Mario title, a proper one like Sunshine or 64, but no, we got a worse version of Super Mario 3D Land. Controls are bad, you can only move in 9 directions, wtf is that about? Why have a control stick? Music is OK, not very memorable though. Level design/themes are stale, same themes as New Super Mario Bros., just in a different order. The game has no exploration, its just a straight path all the way to the FLAGPOLE... Why is there a flag pole in a "3D World"? It's not even a 3D World, you can't look around you, you can only see the direction you're going. Just to top it off there's a Time limit. This game is absolute trash, it's such a disappointment to people growing up with real Mario games, not the recent re-hashed abominations. The game is pathetically easy, it's literally boring, at no point do you feel in danger, I must have died twice maybe 3 times throughout the entire game. Only positive thing I can say is I liked using Peach, cause she floated for a little bit, seriously that was the highlight of the game, floating a bit. Do yourself a favour and don't think twice about picking this mess up. Imagine if this game didn't have Mario characters, the review scores would be slashed in half. Super Mario 2D World gets a 2/10 from me. (2D was intentional).… Expand
Sep 13, 2014Más de lo mismo, más de 30 años jugando a lo mismo CANSA! Donde está la next gen??? un juego de menos de dos gigas, eso ocupaban algunos en PSX...
Jul 25, 2014While not as revolutionary as Mario 64 or Galaxy, 3D World manages to feel simultaneously fresh and nostalgic in a way the New Super Mario Bros. series never quite realized.
Mar 11, 2014Mario Galaxies have finally gotten the follow up they so rightfully deserve. Fun, exciting and surprising, Super Mario 3D World is everything a good platformer needs to be. [Dec 2013]
Feb 19, 2014I'm sure some players will get a kick out of throwing each other into pits or causing chaos in a cat suit, but 3D World stands squarely in the shadow of other, greater entries in the series.

how can I get Direct Loans to actually report my student loans?
I had 2 federal loans that I consolidated into 1 since it would not only lock my fixed rate at what it is now (3.something) but also my fixed rate one that was at what I used to think was phenominal at 5% and brought it down to the 3 point something %.
I did all this in Early in Feb made my first payment in early March and it has my date as "Feb" but only is showing data for May, no march, no april, no june, and no july. My august payment is already in the mail...I'm loosing out on some valuable data here!
am I the only one with this issue with them?
I've had a similar thing happen to me. I recently checked my TU report and my Direct Lonas were nowhere to be found. And I've been paying them for years now. My private SL was listed but no Dept. of Ed. consolidation loan. I swear, though, the other agencies have reported federal loans. Maybe it's just something weird with TU?

Beyonce Halftime Show Performance: Grade It!by Hilton Hater at . Comments
So... how did she do?
Following her controversial Inaugural performance of the national anthem, we can finally move past Beyonce Lip Sync Gate - and focus instead on the superstar's performance at today's Super Bowl XLVII halftime show.
It followed the Alicia Keys national anthem rendition and featured black leather and lace... a fiery guitar... some serious dance moves... renditions of "Crazy in Love," "End of Love" and, of course, a Destiny's Child reunion!
Grade the Beyonce halftime show performance now:
I hate to say this, but I only gave her a "C". I really do think Beyonce is talented - but her halftime show just didn't impress me:( Maybe she was trying too hard to be sexy and just didn't pull it off with her dance moves...I don't know. She looked pretty, but I found her show to be rather boring. Even the stage setup and lighting was underwhelming. When she began flipping her hair all over the place, it reminded me of Willow Smith's music video "Whip My Hair".
I really could not hear Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams when they sang. But, I could hear Beyonce loud and clear. I gave the overall performance a B or 8/10.
Really wasn't impressed, maybe my interest in pop has dimenished, but I think it's mostly because I just didn't like her outfit, thought she looked a little sloppy and not as sexy as she use to be.
I loved her outfit. As for the actual show. I hate to answer this question because people say that I am hating on her. I think they only liked it though because they are huge Beyonce fans. I just like musicand it doesnt matter the singer if its good. Anyway, the show was very boring. I knew the the rest of Destinys Child would come on stage before the game even started. The dance moves were boring. Her still trying the sexy thing is boring. The only good part to me was the outfit. Im wearing something similar for Mardi Gras. Im not even playing.
Hey, I agree with you. You are not a hater. You are telling it like it is. Some of us are sick of Beyonce. I was not impressed. The power should have went out on her performance. Very BORING. I was glad to see Kelly and Michelle. She wasted no time getting them back off the spot light.
As big of a critic I am of Beyonce, I thought she did a good job. I gave her a B. It wasn't spectacular, but it was good.
I was in awe at the raw talent exuding from the stage...I mean all those instruments playing in complete unison, the amazing lyrics and stellar voice, wait...there was none of that. Some women on stage in Victoria Secret outfits lip singing and dry humping the air and flipping their hair at the camera....ahhh yes sheer genius and talent, I could almost swear I have seen it before. Costumes, weak lyrics, and lip singing is not TALENT, low grade entertainment at best. Why do people like this mindless talentless drivel?
They follow like sheep.
Stupid sheep. Tone deaf, stupid sheep.
I have a few suggestions for next years halftime show. In keeping with this years joke halftime 'show':
Milli Vannili
Ashley Simpson
Vanilla Ice
Sanjaya Malabar
I thought for sure that Beyonce's halftime show would be a definite show stopper but it left me feeling like more of the same. Does she have anything new on the horizon? In terms of her dance routines and songs. Oh and before I forget, is it just me or did Beyonce hurry up and get the other members of destiny 's child off the stage so that she could high the spotlight for herself yet again!
@janet...You couldn't be more right, I was expecting to see Beyonce to look to Jay-Z and have him yank them away with the big giant hook.
I guess I'm in the minority on this one. I happen to really enjoy Beyonce's show. I think she is mult-talented, & I loved the dancing, & It was great to see Destiny Child re-uniting. Loved the show.....
I do not remember her "singing", I remember her talking in a monotone, dead pan sort of thinking she was seducing someone with quick glances into the camera. I remember her asking the "fans" to hold hands towards her so that she could glean there energy. I remember now why it was so important for her to "sing" along with a prerecorded track of her voice after it was auto tuned in a recording studio. I wish she had used that same good advice last night, she needed that studio equipment desperately. If she looked like Susan Boyle, she'd have been booed off the stage just as Roseanne was when she sang. Yes, it was that bad.

Wind River Environmental suggested detergents, cleaners and toilet paper for use in Septic Systems:
Detergents should be concentrated, low-sudsing, low (or no)-phosphate, and bio-degradable. Any type of septic system should use liquid detergents.
Wind River Environmental recommends using single ply toilet paper because it breaks down in the septic system faster and better then higher ply count toilet paper.
Wind River Environmental recommends using non-chlorine, non-ammonia, non-antibacterial, non-toxic and bio-degradable cleaning products. Most all-natural cleaners are septic safe.
The best thing to do for your septic system is to be sure not to flush anything other than human waste and toilet paper (preferably 1 ply toilet paper).
Even if items are marked as "septic safe" do not flush them. For example, some baby wipes and cat litter may be labeled this way. It is not good for your septic system to flush anything other than human waste and toilet paper because it does not break down in the septic system correctly.
Odors coming from outside the house can be an indication that your septic system is overfull and you need septic pumping service. A vent pipe may also be installed to help release odors from the septic system.
Sometimes when drains are not used the noxious gases can build up and cause odors. For example, if you have a shower downstairs that gets little use you may notice that at times there is an odor coming from that area. Running the water regularly in those drains will help keep odors at bay.
Garbage disposals are not a good thing to have along with a septic system. Chopped up food particles from the garbage disposal make their way into the tank and do not completely biodegrade before they can get out into your leach field lines. These lines can then become clogged with food and cause a back-up.
Having a filter will be a good way to help prevent this from becoming an issue. Filters are placed on the outlet line of your septic tank and keep the hair, grit, grime, food particles etc... from escaping into your leach field lines and causing issues.

It's nice to see that at least occasionally bigotry loses.
MOBILE, Ala (Reuters) - The owner of a large southwest Alabama car dealership derided as "Taliban Toyota" by a competitor has been awarded $7.5 million in damages after a jury trial for his slander claim.
Iranian-born Shawn Esfahani, owner of Eastern Shore Toyota in Daphne, Alabama, sought $28 million in compensatory and punitive damages from Bob Tyler Toyota, claiming employees at that Pensacola, Florida-based dealership falsely portrayed him as an Islamist militant to customers. Link

Good news- but also bad.
One would think a businessman would not use bigotry as a marketing tool if there was not a ready customer base who would respond.
In any case, glad some courts are on top of things.
Also- there are levels of bigotry. One wonders what would have happened if the guy hadn't accused other man of supporting terrorists but had simply said "hey, you should buy from a real American."
There are these two liquors stores by me (this is in NJ, not Alabama). One is owned by Indians; the other has a big banner in the window reading "A Family Owned American Business". Effective, maybe, but perfectly legal.

This happened in Pensacola. The worst 6 months of my life were spent on a small Navy base in Pensacola. The place is the arm pit of Florida. It does not surprise me that someone from there would do something like this.

More than that, there is some good in just about everybody.
When it comes to bigotry, personalizing it can make a big difference (should not have to , but that's the way it works).
No account of the trial was given, but one can easily imagine Mr. Esfahani on the witness stand, the story of a naturalized American who fled Iranian tyranny, and has been here 30 years and worked hard to make a business for himself, presenting a very sympathetic victim. No longer some faceless "Mooslim".

|SIP Sterilize in Place
Sterilization in place with steam is considered by many as the least risky method of sterilzing the interior of a freeze dryer. Of course if you are processing non sterile injectibles, chemical compounds, nutraceuticals, and products that incoporate preservatives or those that can be terminally sterilized, SIP with steam is not necessary. Most pharmaceutical GMP systems available today incorporate some form of sterilization using steam. Food freeze dryers never incorporate SIP in any form. Older systems have been supposedly designed to be steam sterilized, and it is important when considering an older freeze dryer to ensure the presence of adequate steam inlet size, penetrations without threads, penetrations that have a L/D of less than 6:1 [This being adequate for sterilization and the norm currently is 3:1]. Pipes that enter the chamber and condenser must be sloped inward, the condenser to chamber tubulation sloped towards either chamber or condenser. The chamber and condenser should have a working pressure rating of at least 18 psig. The system must also have a liquid ring vacuum pump installed to dry out the system after sterilization, perhaps have water cooled jackets on the chamber exterior and the chamber door[s], and most importantly an completely automated cycle. There are many other requirements to match the methods normally required by cGMP.
Filtered inert gas for vacuum control and release is required, and this may be available on systems either in single or series redundant configurations, with our without integrity testing in place, and with and without sterilzation in place, and incorporated into the automatic control cycle of the freeze dryer. Many systems have the filter in the sterile room, capable of being added to the system at the right time via an aseptic connection SOP. Filter sterilzation in this arrangement is via autoclave. SIP of the system takes place using a spool piece in place of the filter housing. Normal modern systems have the filters placed in the mechanical space, with appropriate pipe arrangements, with drains and steam trap[s] temperature sensors at the "cold" spots.

Omega Institute: Jon Kabat-Zinn Explains Mindfulness In The Modern World
Jon Kabat-Zinn, owner of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), talks about a benefaction impulse and a "thousand-year view" with Omega.
Omega: The Stress Reduction Clinic, that we founded in 1979, recently distinguished a 30th anniversary. Since that time, we've seen implausible changes in a fields of health and healing, including a introduction of recognition into mainstream medicine and culture. What drew we to persevere yourself to this teaching?
Jon: That's one of those questions that has an impossibly prolonged answer, though my one-word answer is "karma." we was unusual and meddlesome in large questions given we was young. My father was a world-class scientist and my mom was a inclusive painter. we could see that my relatives had totally opposite ways of meaningful and bargain a world, and relating to it. My father approached things by systematic scrutiny and exploration, while my mom gifted things by her emotions and senses.
I desired science, and when we detected Buddhist pondering practices and martial arts, we was means to overpass those ways of meaningful a universe into my possess singular way. From that grew a Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) program, that became my karmic assignment.
Omega: Was one of your intentions in formulating MBSR to assistance people learn in new ways?
Jon: Too many of a preparation complement orients students toward apropos improved thinkers, though there is roughly no concentration on a ability to compensate courtesy and favour awareness. Mindfulness is a approach to rebalance ourselves. Instead of being mislaid in thought, or held adult in romantic upheaval, we can tip a scale in a instruction of larger equanimity, clarity, wisdom, and self-compassion by indeed training how to live that other dimension of a being.
Omega: Not usually education, though complicated scholarship also tends to demeanour during usually numbers and data, that usually gives partial of a picture.
Jon: Yes, that's mostly true, though any unequivocally good scientist is as many an artist as a scientist. All a engaging things is found on a corner between meaningful and not knowing. we know that sounds like a imagining clergyman speaking, though when you're in a laboratory, or you're theorizing about physics, we need to know what we know, though if we can't get out from underneath that, we won't be means to make that insightful, first-time tie that nobody else has seen before.
Omega: About 30 years ago, Hans Selye spoke during Omega. He was a initial scientist to use a word "stress" as it relates to a tellurian condition, rather than as an engineering term. MBSR seems to be a subsequent proviso of study stress.
Jon: we suspicion it was a cadence of talent that Selye used a word "stress," given it's loyal that if we don't know how to be in correct attribute to life, certain health consequences are firm to happen. If we mount adult 12 hours a day on an public line, or constantly tell yourself life is not value living, a physique will respond in certain rather predicted ways.
MBSR fundamentally says that we can demeanour inside and self-regulate. You can move together a body's several systems to fine-tune a physique and mind in sequence to navigate life's ups and downs in a approach that minimizes highlight and maximizes contentment and satisfaction.
Omega: How did we know we wanted to pursue study recognition as a approach to revoke stress?
Jon: The whole thing indeed came to me in about 10 seconds while on shelter in 1978. In a flash, we saw what we had to do in utterly some fact — we know this sounds uncanny — though it roughly seems like it's a dream fulfilling itself and we don't have many to do with it solely as a kind of instrument in creation it happen. On a other hand, of course, there was a really clever goal and outrageous volume of work on my partial — something like this doesn't usually happen.
Omega: Did we know that recognition would assistance revoke highlight when we started your investigate in 1979?
Jon: No, there was no denote it would work or that people would be peaceful to rivet in something that, frankly, looked a lot like nothing. Paying courtesy to apparent things like your breath, or a sensations in your body, substantially seemed like a rubbish of time. Today, people commend that they're not going to find contentment from a outside, or from a pill; they're going to find it by looking inside. All a suffering, stress, and obsession comes from not realizing we already are what we are looking for.
Omega: The MBSR training we learn with Saki Santorelli during Omega is one of a many renouned programs. After decades of teaching, how do we conduct to keep a work fresh?
Jon: We knowledge it as uninformed when we're training given it's entrance out of benefaction impulse experience. We're not removing out a records from 30 years ago or even 30 mins ago. We're feeling a approach impulse by impulse by what is indispensable when we lay in front of a group. In that way, we indication what we teach. We don't even have any notes, so we couldn't do it that approach if we wanted.
Omega: In a tumble of 2011, we spent several weeks in China clear about MBSR. What was it like to reintroduce a tradition that originated there though they haven't had given a informative series of a 1970s?
Jon: It felt like a shutting of a certain kind of karmic circle. It was unusual how many they were meddlesome in physical mindfulness. we kept seeking myself what it would be like if China got behind in hold with a low knowledge roots — a Taoist and Chan Buddhist traditions — as it plays an augmenting caring purpose in a universe over a subsequent hundred years. It's unhappy how many of their tradition has been lost, though sparkling to see their seductiveness in it. we speedy them to not usually adopt MBSR, though to demeanour deeply into their possess roots and see how they can surprise a approach health care, industry, environment, and multitude are being treated.
Omega: So recognition can assistance us act with a clarity of ethics or ethics?
Jon: Mindfulness is about adore and amatory life. When we favour this love, it gives we clarity and caring for life, and your actions occur in suitability with that. All ethics and morality, and a clarity of interconnectedness, come out of a act of profitable attention.
Omega: Where is your personal expansion corner right now? What excites we about your work?
Jon: I've usually turn a grandfather for a initial time, so I've been looking during how we spend my time and how we change a final of my life. There's an strenuous need for bringing some-more recognition into society, though we have to contend no to about 99 percent of a vocalization and training requests or we won't be walking my talk, and that's hard.
The other corner is perplexing to say a fealty to a use — to consolidate it, clear a mysteries of it, and not tumble into a trap of meditative we have arrived. Given a state of a world, we find it severe to take what one Zen clergyman called "the thousand-year view." The crises of currently will arrange themselves out over a subsequent three, four, or 5 generations, and all we can do is essay to have as many firmness with what I'm doing in this brief moment.
Omega: That's engaging how recognition is about being in a benefaction impulse and nonetheless it includes a prolonged view.
Jon: Yes, it's what helps people comprehend this is a approach of being that not usually has a prolonged perspective into a future, though a story as well. Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese, Tibetan, or other chronological traditions are all opposite streams in a same river, opposite currents in a same ocean. With a prolonged view, we can trust that a seeds that we're planting are transforming a world.
That's what Omega is doing. Yes, it needs to be a successful business, though because are we doing it? The genuine reason is transformation, and governmental mutation isn't going to occur in one month, one year, or even one lifetime. But we see it occur chairman by chairman in front of us, and we don't have to worry about a destiny if we're holding caring of a present. In some sense, that's a best word process we can have.

One-Chip Digital Signal Processing Large-Scale Integrated Circuit for the Compact Disc Player
A new one chip digital signal processing large-scale-integrated circuit (LSI) has been developed for compact disc (CD) players, which has the following functions: demodulation of the eight-to-fourteen modulation (EFM) signal, synchronization with the input EFM signal and detection of the frequency, demodulation of subcode and decoding cyclic redundancy check (CRC) code, decoding of cross-interleaved Reed-Solomon code (CIRC), error concealment by interpolation, and spindle motor servo. Using a new error correction algorithm and new Galois field computer architecture we have attained an uncorrectable probability of 10-19 (Ps=10-3). The LSI is fabricated using complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) of 2 µm rule.

Just wanted to say how pleased we were with Le Petit Palmier. It was a lovely villa and suited our needs perfectly. In the end we spent most of our time in Mougins. The children loved the pool and Mougins had all the amenities we needed without the hustle and bustle of the coast.
Many thanks for your recommendation to opt for this villa.

"Best show of the week" could be a stretch, but "most interesting show of the week" without question. Jad Fair sat in with the biggest DIY band of the past 25 years, Half Japanese, and made a career out of ignoring the notion that talent is necessary to rock. The band's vigor and love for music made up for all the rough edges, and indie legends like Yo La Tengo, John Zorn and J. Mascis have proven their love of the band by collaborating with Fair over the years. His solo work is just as unapologetic, full of screams, stream-of-consciousness poetry and discordant melodies, which should be damn interesting in concert. Supporting the insanity are Denton's loud-and-moody Mandarin and Fort Worth's dreamy Theater Fire. I once slammed the latter's soft country sound in a live review and have been proven wrong each time I've seen them since.

John Deere L130 Specifications
Strengths good seat
Weaknesses Have two la 130 one 18hours other 8hours.One will not pull up a hill but other will,John deere said nothing wrong. both belts come off.Nether one cuts grass even.Deere dealer said to cute grass twice!!! I have two yards and about 4 acers.backfires when shut off
Overall I had a yardman lasted 12 years I bought two LA130 thought I was getting better lawn tractor.DO NOT BUY 1-10 I rate then 1/2
Strengths Powerful, smooth. I have had virtually no problems into my 5th season. I mow 4 acres nearly every week in the summer. Has been great. Change oil once a season and put on new blades. Gator blades and usually put on one new deck belt a year. Traction drive belt is bad right now. First problem with that.
Weaknesses Slow backing. Think drive belt stretches right off the bat. Non-greasable hubs on the deck. Should be able to service transaxle. Plastic grille breaks easily.
Overall Over all fine. Had I had it to do again I'd probably get a Cub Cadet. Have a 1974 Cub that still does fine. Lot better built, but is also a lot better built than new Cubs too. Cub seems to be more tractor for the money as long as it has a Kohlor.
Strengths Looks, comfortable ride
Weaknesses Faulty generator from factory- poor customer service from Deere and Rep
Overall I bought this tractor 8 weeks ago after owning 2 Cubs. I was a little leary of the mower deck which is far less quality than Cubs, and the Briggs and Stratton engine has its own problems long term. But my problem ws when the engine would not start after the 6th week. I had it taken in and they promptly repaired the generator which was faulty from the factory. However they then charged me $110 for pickup and delivery. I live 3 miles from the dealer. They did not care Deere would not cover this under warranty even though it was faulty from the factory. I contacted Deere who is osrry I received a faulty unit from the factory but policy is policy. "Just look in your warranty statement" they said.
Strengths Cranks!
Weaknesses Has been nothing but problems since day one. Now at 220 hours, the motor needs to be replaced. I'm going to buy a different brand, rather than fix this one. I have replaced every part on the deck, (several times) except the deck itself. Kohler 23 HP, backfired since I got it too. JD service is awful in South Atlanta. The bagger tub clogs so often it's not worth using.
Overall Buy a JD from their store. Otherwise, you get nothing but problems.
Strengths The L130 is easy to use and the large tires are great.
Weaknesses I have had the L130 for 3years and have put a 140 hours on it and now the Hydro has gone out. (526.00 dollar replacement) Looking on the internet seems like this is a huge problem for the L130. Whether there is a warranty or not dont you think John Deere should honor this huge problem and replace all the bad hydros at there expense. Thinking of going to sears for my next mower. Half the price and will last just as long.
Strengths These models came without grease fittings on the mower deck spindle.
I have 19 hours on mine. I mow a yard that is .75 acres and I am already replacing all 3 spindles. New ones from a place off ebay 36.95 and they have grease fittings. Tire traction sucks. Mine backfired from day one when shutting off. Most new mower have a float that dries up when the mower sits up to long inbetween seasons. A couple of love taps behind the air filter unsticks it. I agree with the grass getting piled up ontop of mower deck.
Weaknesses I would not buy another one from HomeDepot. Believe me its hard to get service on them from the JD Authr. shop. I had to call the corporate office and complain. Now I do not have any problems from the local shop. Do yourself a favor and buy the GT series mower. YOu can get the 23Hp one for like 200 more and will last you for many years to come.
This is an overpriced walmart mower with green plastic and a yellow seat.
Also after about the 5th hour of use it still refuses to cut even. Level,ed the deck, replaced the blades twice still leaves paths of uncut grass.
Overall Go to a JD dealer and purchase the equivalent GT series 23HP its design for more of a work horse and its almost the same price.
Strengths 48" cut, ease of use, durable, price
Weaknesses Speed
Overall Very happy. No problems yet. I bought this to mow my yard and have since done a friends yard regularly and added a few commercial accounts.
Strengths Will start, good engine. First time owner. I wish I had a garden tractor. I mow about 1 acre
with lots of hills. Cosmetic apperance is nice.
I would like to have a high quality well built
John Deer Tractor.
Weaknesses Bought 3 years ago. Replaced the following: Hydro Transmission, both tie rods, both front wheel spindles and bearings,3 deck spindles. Replaced 5 deck belts, idler pulley spring, 1 drive belt, PTO wires got caught on shaft and pulled loose and broke.[no grease fittings on mower deck spindles]tie rods are not adjustable
and transmission is a sealed unit.
Overall I would like to see JD continue to build a quality product and not lower their quality standards. John Deer always had a good name and you should continue to keep it that way. I'd be happy if a new high quality one was delivered to my house. Grass is growing fast.
Strengths Purchased new in spring 1994 after moving to the country. have 1.5 rolling acres. Salesman at Home Depot recomended this model. Looks great, "implied" quality with the J D name, many features for the money. Works good if you have a small, flat area to cut. Easiest oil changes I've ever done.
Weaknesses Now has 139 hours, has had all recomended services. Poor quality, poor dealer support. I complained about hard starting & backfiring from the begining...First trip to repair center recomended by J D blamed my gas (car runs great) Second trip to J D dealer found stuck carb float. Ran great for about 5 minutes. Third trip to dealer replaced carb. Still runs rich & backfires when shut off (regardless of method) 6 months later, it quit going up hill (about a 15-20% grade)Fourth trip to dealer blamed belt tension. Still won't go up hill after 1/2 hour of use. Fifth trip to dealer replaced the transmission/hydrostatic drive unit. Worked great for about 6 months, now won't go up hill again! NOW OUT OF WARRANTY!
Overall Based on the poor quality of this unit, I will never ever buy anything from J D again. I have also convinced numerous others not to. Has 139 hours and I can't even cut my grass with it. Looking to sell it cheap to someone who has a small flat yard. What a piece of crap.
Strengths It seemed like a great tractor until my first hub bearing blew and I than noticed how many corners were cut. Good seat adjustment,nice blade height handle, good lights, hydro drive smooth. I thought it was great for a while.
Weaknesses Major parts are not up to task. Blade hub bearings were just sealed ball bearings, not greaseable, for example. Good for about 3-5 years use than get out your wallet. Slow top speed, cruise control bad, deck fills with grass no matter how dry it is so you have to scrap it out after each use, very annoying. Uneven cut, can snub out engine when pulling pto, 23hp??, backfires on shutdown because it doesn't have a fuel shutoff solenoid, loud, drinks too much gas, heavy steering, can't fill fuel without spilling, backup button is safe but I defeated it, etc....
Overall Don't buy this tractor. You will be money ahead getting a commercial grade ztr like I did after liquidating this as soon as major problems started. Tractors under $2500 last for about 5 good years with luck. $5000 ones will likely last for 20+ years with basic care.
