IE-based browsing for people who like lots of options
Browsers tend to divide users in very definite camps. Many, many people are Firefox fans, lots can't bear to let go of Internet Explorer, while a brave few use alternatives like Chrome and Opera. People are normally so devoted to their browsers, in fact, that they rarely change.
This all boils down to one thing: developers with other browsers - like TheWorld Browser - have a hard task cut out for them. In many ways this is a pity, as this particular newcomer is packed with features.
TheWorld Browser has all the features you would expect these days, from tabbed browsing and address bar search engine to flexible download manager and multiple privacy options. It is based on Internet Explorer and so has a few features that users of other browsers may not be familiar with, such as the ability to preview all your open tabs on a single page and use TheWorld Browser as a system explorer. As you use it, TheWorld Browser's links with IE become more obvious, as it references the Microsoft browser several times, shares plug-ins and assumes that IE, and not any other browser you might have installed, is your secondary browser.
The one thing that puts TheWorld Browser ahead of its big brother is the fact that all of its configuration options are so easily accessible, via drop-down menus and icons at both the top and bottom of the browser. Some users won't want so much visibility, but if you are looking for easy-access control, plenty of features and a familiar setting, you could do a lot worse than TheWorld Browser.
Although I can't imagine anyone abandoning Firefox for it, TheWorld Browser is a completely viable alternative to IE.

You are all morbid for thinking you just die and that's it.
You are AFRAID of death and have NO faith.
There have been thousands of people who claim to have seen heaven and were brought back to life.
If video does not work, watch it on youtube.
90 Minutes In Heaven.
Quoting Anonymous:
Why not? God is supposed to be all forgiving, at least in the new testemant. Forgiven for sins.
Quoting macysmom:
Not everyone sees it when they die.. obviously. .
Quoting Anonymous:
lol its funny you say this as another CM'er just responded that she didn't see anything when she died and then was brought back. Nor did I. lolQuoting macysmom:
They do see the same things.
Quoting TSNDDY:
If every single person who almost died saw heaven, and they all said the same thing, then you might have a case.
I believe in Heaven. I will be there when my time comes. I can't wait to see the face of Jesus. Heaven is more real to me than my own breath.
That such visions would prove there is a heaven, is less likely than that those visions would prove that near-death is a very highly interpreted experience.
And in fact, many people who are not Christian and whose religion does not believe in a heaven at all, ALSO have the same experiences.
When you add that little bit of the puzzle, it doesn't prove there's a heaven at all.
It proves that when people have a near death experience, they describe it afterwards as going toward a light, etc.
This isn't due to 'chemical reactions as the brain is dying', as people who have a 'near death experience' don't have brains that are dying at all, but are completely intact and normal after the expereince.
Rather, it indicates the structure of the brain.
There actually is a part of the brain responsible for 'spiritual' experiences and it gets stimulated by near-death conditions. For thousands of years, humans have stimulated that part of the brain through fasting, substance abuse and asceticism, to encourage such experiences. They are often called 'peak experiences' or 'ecstatic experiences'.
Yes, there is indeed, a 'spiritual' part of the brain responsible for such feelings.
The experiences are also highly interpreted and small signs become highly significant and are interpreted later, based on the person's religious beliefs.
Quoting TSNDDY:
If every single person who almost died saw heaven, and they all said the same thing, then you might have a case.

This is Obie, who is quickly gaining fame in his quest to lose weight and become the Dachshund Biggest Loser. His story began when a relative of his owners, an elderly couple in failing health, asked the Oregon Dachshund Rescue for help. They'd been showing Obie love with food and were unable to provide him with physical activity, and now this pup was in trouble. The organization posted a plea on Facebook: could someone foster Obie and help him get healthy? Nora Vanatta, an EMT and veterinary technician from Portland, stepped up to the plate, and when Obie arrived from Seattle, he weighed a whopping 77 pounds. Now this sweet pup is in the process of losing 40 pounds on a low-fat, high-protein diet, and inspiring other overweight canines to get fit with his "Biggest Loser, Doxie Edition" Facebook page, which already has over 33,000 fans. "My hope is that he can be an inspiration to any person or animal trying to lose weight," says Vanatta. Obie, we're all cheering for you. [OregonLive]

Every promotion plan in SSA (and you should read yours) requires that five factors be considered in choosing you for a new job:
- Experience
- Training and Self-Development
- Awards
- Outside Activities
- Performance Appraisal
Your SSA-45 should tell your whole story. Selecting officials see your SSA-45 long before they ever see you. The SSA-45 is your judge and jury. Give it all the evidence it needs.
What have you done, anywhere, which the new job will ask you to do?
First, find out what the new job will ask of you; don't just think you
can guess. Study the following:
A. The vacancy announcement
B. The position description (ask the Personnel Office for a copy)
C. Source books in your Personnel Office
- OPM Qualification Standards Operating Manual
- OPM Classification Standards
By now, you may have guessed that the SSA-45 should be tailor-made for each promotion for which you apply. It should indeed!
Be sure to show all the training you have had to prepare you for
this next job.
List every seminar, every government training course, and every course you have taken at your expense. Have you, for example, attended a seminar on career development? It may not seem to
you that it relates to the next job, but it certainly may. Have you sought a reading list on a specific subject at your local library,
and followed the reading list? Mention it.
If the courses you have taken have omnibus titles, like "Communications," describe what you learned which fits the
next job.
Every effort you have made to develop yourself into a more competent person should be included here. It will attest to your desire for growth and to your curiosity about knowledge.
Most of us are modest about awards. Many think the award should be a magnificent one if it is to be included. Don't!
Cite letters of commendation from your supervisor or your
servicing public; mention suggestion awards and tell what your suggestion was. Remember quality increases. Include awards
from your
church, clubs and organizations outside of the Government.
Many of us devote long hours to community volunteer work that often goes unrecognized. OPM acknowledges the value of such experience for personal and career development.
The trust accorded you by your community groups reflects abilities the Government values. Besides, these activities have helped you develop the knowledge, skills and abilities that transfer to high performance on the job. Don't ignore them!
Employees must be at the successful level in order to be considered for promotion.

Teleparallel GravitySpringer 2012; US$ 129.00
Teleparallel Gravity (TG) is an alternative theory for gravitation, which is equivalent to General Relativity (GR). However, it is conceptually different. For example in GR geometry replaces the concept of force, and the trajectories are determined by geodesics. TG attributes gravitation to torsion, which accounts for gravitation by acting as a force.... more...

Granite Bay woman pleads for husband's ashes after burglary
Updated On: Nov 06 2013 10:49:42 PM PST
A woman is making a desperate plea for her husband's ashes after her house was burglarized Halloween afternoon.
Suella Martin returned home after taking less than an hour to run errands, and found her house ransacked, with much her valuable jewelry missing.
The burglar or burglars also entered the den, where they opened the box on the mantel containing the ashes of her husband of 43 years, Gerald Martin, who died five years ago from cancer. The couple had three children.
"That was the most devastating thing," Martin told KCRA 3 on Wednesday. "It's like you feel violated. That's sinking pretty darn low, the lowest you can get, if you're going to take ashes."
The person or people responsible also took a box containing the ashes of her two cats, as well as her mother's rosary.
"You take rosary? What kind of person are you? What kind of conscience do you have? Or feelings?" she said.
Martin said she is willing to forgo pressing charges, if the items are returned, with no questions asked.
"When you take ashes, then you take a rosary … these are blessed things, sacred things to the family," Martin said. "I don't want them throwing them to the side of the road or putting them in a garbage can."
Deputies with the Placer County Sheriff's Department canvassed Martin's neighborhood Wednesday afternoon talking to neighbors and looking for leads.

This course has graduate (7649) and undergraduate (4649) sections. Both sections will participate in two group programming projects related to the two covered aspects of planning. The projects will be graded on algorithm implmementation, analysis and results for a total of 40% of the course grade.
Classical Planning (30%)
Motion Planning (30%)
In order to expose students to research in planning, the course will also have a final project that makes up 40% of the grade. This project will involve the design, implementation and validation of a planning algorithm resulting in a conference-style paper and presentation.
7649 Graduate Projects:
Graduate students will work in groups on a project that is relevant to their research goals. The instructor will provide resources such as robot arm/hand hardware and existing algorithms to support this work. Furthermore, students are welcome to use resources or expand on active projects in their own research labs. Final decisions on topics will be made through discussion with the instructor.
4649 Undegraduate Reviews:
Undergraduates can take the role of reviewers for the projects. They will be exposed to research in planning and the peer-review process. Undergrads will be required to review project proposals, final projects, suggest alternative algorithms and find references that back up their claims. They will be graded based on the thoroughness of their reviews, understanding of the project topics and relevance of located references. Undergraduates are given the option to participate in the projects directly and be graded as graduate students.

What enabled you to find your own voice and become an empowered leader in your own life/community?
Originally started as a mother-daughter project born out of our own respective challenges, I am currently working on a collaborative writing project focused on empowering women and girls around the world through stories of heart-aligned leadership. The project is based on the belief that every female, regardless of age, culture, religious or socio-economic status, should be entitled to the basic human right to live her voice out loud and become a leader in her own life.
Looking through the lens of 16 core principles of heart-aligned leadership (e.g. authenticity, integrity, collaboration, etc.), this project invites women from around the world to share their own stories of empowerment, including advice they would offer the next generation of young women.
The goal of this project is to create a global collection of stories that not only inspire and uplift, but encourage and empower others to find their own voice, too, passing on the legacy of leadership from one generation of women to the next.
If you are interested in participating in the project, please contact us via email@example.com.
If you share our passion for this project, we hope you will like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter. Both links can be found via the project site at ww.globalgirlsproject.org.
Thanks so much!

In the Season 5 premiere, Ted starts his new teaching job at Columbia University. But the big story is Barney and Robin. In last season's finale, they kissed... but then what? Can two commitment-phobes make it work in a serious relationship — if that's what they're even calling it?Future Ted explains that when he started as a professor at Columbia, there were two things he wishes he'd known ahead of time. The first, as we all remember from the season finale, is that The Mother was in that classroom. The second thing... well, that's the story of this episode.Cut to MacLaren's, where Lily and Marshall have just learned about the Barney-Robin kiss. "Wooooo!" Lily shrieks. (My thoughts exactly.) Actually, Lily gets a little too excited, going on and on about the new "couple" and how they can go on double dates together. Maybe even their kids will get married. But her enthusiasm isn't shared by everyone. Robin and Barney let her down easy, explaining that they're just "not feeling it," but they've decided to remain friends. Oh, those big fakers. Lily looks slightly let down at the bar, but by the time she gets home, she's in full-blown heartbreak mode, sobbing in bed with Marshall while downing a gallon of butter pecan ice cream.Fast-forward to the Friday before Ted's first day at his new job. At MacLaren's, Marshall presents Ted with a gift that used to belong to his favorite professor. And because Marshall is awesome, it's totally an Indiana Jones fedora and whip. Ted is blown away. "I'm Indiana Jones. I'm Indiana Jones!" he yells. To make the night even better, Marshall suggests going out into the alley and whipping stuff. Robin and Barney don't join in, though. Robin has a "date" (uh huh), and Barney is going for seconds with a hookup. Fakers! Lily looks horrified.Out in the alley, Marshall is freakishly excited about Ted's whip... until it catches him in the face. Ouch. They head back to Ted's apartment, with Marshall berating Ted about how the whip is not a toy... but his scoldings are cut short when they enter the apartment and find Barney and Robin getting hot and heavy on the couch. Lily's face lights up, and she speaks for a huge portion of the show's fanbase by shouting, "Wooooo!" Robin and Barney reveal that they've been hooking up all summer. But they immediately put on the brakes when Lily calls them "boyfriend and girlfriend." They explain that they tried many, many times to have The Talk and figure out what they're doing, but they always got, um, distracted. Besides, as Barney so eloquently puts it, "The Talk sucks." Lily insists that they need to define their relationship, but they're not having any of it.Cut to Columbia, where Ted is starting his first day of teaching. He's in his uber-pretentious element, until one of his students raises her hand to question his credentials. Another points out that he's failed as an architect. Other students chime in to ask him where his fedora is and why he isn't wearing any pants. Ah. Dream sequence. Ted wakes up and starts freaking out to Barney, who's in Ted's room (!) looking for condoms.The next day at MacLaren's, Ted asks the gang for advice. Barney tells Ted that taking questions on the first day is a sign of weakness. Lily stresses that definitions are important, and that Ted needs to make it clear that he's the teacher and not his students' friend. Robin already knows where this is going and rolls her eyes, but Barney enthusiastically chimes in: "Exactly!" Lily continues and says that nobody's happy if things are unclear, then turns to Barney and snaps, "Define the relationship!"Annoyed, Barney takes Lily up to the bar for a one-on-one convo. He asks her why she can't just let them be happy. "You're not happy," she says, and tells him again to define the relationship. "Why?" Barney retorts. "Give me one good reason." Unfortunately, Lily doesn't have to give him a reason, because at that moment Brad walks in (Brad!!) and asks Robin to go to a hockey game with him. She starts to say that she can't, and he asks her if she has a boyfriend. She looks at Barney, who's at a loss, and unhappily responds, "Nope, no boyfriend." So now she's agreed to a date with Brad. Oh, this should go well.The date occurs the next night at a hockey game at Madison Square Garden. Robin turns to Brad and says, "You're probably wondering why I've been quiet all night." Brad looks confused, and then we get a flashback to 30 seconds earlier, when Robin was on her feet, screaming about a lousy play. Heh. She says she feels weird being out with Brad. He immediately thinks they're having The Talk, and thinks it's a good thing. He tells her that he's looking for something serious — I wonder what happened with Kara? — and then starts to overshare in a way you should never overshare on a first date before Robin cuts him off and explains that she feels weird because of Barney. "Sounds like you guys need to have The Talk," he says.At Ted's apartment, Barney is having a similar conversation with Ted, Marshall and Lily. Marshall says The Talk is great — it's a five-minute conversation and you get to have sex afterward. Ted says that he doesn't think The Talk is necessary because Robin is already Barney's girlfriend, by Barney's own rules that he set four years earlier on Tuxedo Night. On that night, Barney had stated that the rules for girls are the same as the rules for gremlins:1. Never get them wet (or let them take a shower at your apartment).2. Keep them away from sunlight (or don't spend time with them during the day).3. Never feed them after midnight (breakfast, and especially brunch, is a serious no-no). These three rules separate "girls" from "girlfriends." Stunned, Barney reports that he's done all three of those things with Robin. "Does that mean she's my girlfriend?" he asks.Back at the hockey game, the Kiss Cam has managed to find Robin and Brad. Brad suggests that they kiss, and if Robin feels bad about it, it means that she's meant to be with Barney. Robin sighs and says, "Why not?" Why not? Because you're in a sitcom, Robin! These things never go well. They pucker up anyway, but before their lips can make contact, Barney appears out of nowhere and punches Brad in the face. Aww. Brad could easily take Barney and Barney knows it, but he just couldn't help himself. Brad's not upset, though. "I shouldn't be kissing some other guy's girlfriend," he says. And still, still, Robin and Barney are in denial. Finally, it's Ted's real first day at Columbia, and more than anything else, he wants to make a good first impression. He starts to write "Professor Mosby" on the blackboard, but freezes up when he realizes that he can't remember how to spell "professor." "Does 'professor' have one 'f' or two?" He starts to write a second 'f' and glances back at the class. A particularly helpful student shakes her head. Ted hesitantly changes it to a capital "e" and looks back once more. The same student nods her head slightly. Hee!In Robin's room, a shirtless Barney apologizes to Robin for punching Brad the night before. Walking to the door, she tells him not to worry about it, but then stops short as the doorknob breaks off in her hand. Turns out Lily's locked them in and won't open the door until they've had The Talk. She tells them that they need to define their relationship, write it down, and slip it under the door. If she likes what she reads, she'll release them. "We're not having The Talk," Barney protests as he puts his shirt on. Robin spitefully tells Lily that she and Barney will spend the whole day having sex instead of talking. Barney immediately takes his shirt back off. Bwah! Lily tells them that Marshall is there, too, so she won't be missing out. "Hey, guys," says a clearly uncomfortable Marshall.Back in Ted's classroom, Ted still hasn't decided whether he wants to be an authoritative professor or a cool, hip guy. So his opening remarks to the class end up being a hysterical mix of both. The girl from the dream raises her hand to ask a question. Ted remembers Barney's advice to never take questions on the first day, and announces that all questions would have to be held until the end. Bad idea jeans, Ted. Turns out that girl — who is not the mother — was trying to tell him that he was in the wrong classroom. All the students were actually there for Economics 305, not Architecture 101. Oops. So Ted proceeds to embarrass himself for the next seven minutes in front of about 100 economics students, including the titular Mother. Future Ted teases us by starting to say where she was sitting, but then he decides to finish the story instead. After attempting to instill 100 incredulous students with architecture-related wisdom, he tells them that if they don't really want to be an architect, they can leave. To his shock, every single student gets up and heads for the door. Fortunately, the econ professor arrives at that moment, tells the students to sit back down, and informs Ted that he's in the wrong classroom. So Ted actually ends up 20 minutes late on his first day. Not the most auspicious beginning to a teaching career. But we're treated to a shot of Ted tearing across campus — to the "Raiders of the Lost Ark" theme music — so no complaints here.Back at the apartment, Lily and Marshall get various non-answers from Robin and Barney, like "We're just hanging out" and "We're seeing where things are going." They deem each answer "not good enough." Marshall wants to give them points for "Barman and Robin," but Lily overrules him.Ted comes home and regales Lily and Marshall with his embarrassing first day. But the good news is that by the time he got to his real classroom, he didn't have time to think about pretentious ways to inspire the students. Instead, he just talked about architecture. And he enjoyed it. Good on you, Ted.Marshall attempts to speed up the Barney-Robin Talk by cooking up delicious breakfast food and using a fan to waft the bacon-y aroma into Robin's bedroom. Hungry, Robin and Barney finally decide to have The Talk. And surprise surprise — neither of them are terribly good at it. Barney hasn't been a serious relationship in a long time, and Robin is not good with relationships and feelings. Except for Ted of course, who's apparently ruined her for other men. (Or at least that's how Future Ted likes to imagine the conversation went.) In the end, they agree to lie to the rest of the gang for simplicity's sake and tell them that they are, indeed, boyfriend and girlfriend. Through the door, they very fakely tell the others that even though they're both afraid of commitment, it's worth the risk. "Because she's awesome," Barney says, gazing at Robin. And he is not lying here. Neither is Robin, when she looks at him and reciprocates: "And he's awesome. And he looks nice in his suit."Gloating over their victory, Robin and Barney leave the apartment to grab some brunch. Lily, Marshall and Ted watch them go. "You do realize they were lying, right?" Ted asks. "No, Ted," Lily says, smiling. "They don't realize they weren't lying." On cue, Barney takes Robin's hand as they turn the corner.What a pitch-perfect season premiere! Wonderful handling of the Barney-Robin dynamic — I think this storyline is going to be a lot of fun to watch as it plays out. Plus, we got more rules from Barney! And a healthy dose of Ted at his pretentious best! The appearance from Brad, whom we haven't seen since Season 2, was just the icing on the cake. It almost made me forget about the show and NPH walking away empty-handed at the Emmys. Almost.So what did you think? Was the premiere worthy of the four-month wait since "The Leap"? How do you feel about Barney and Robin as a couple? Did Lily overstep her boundaries by forcing them to define their relationship? Do you think Ted will make a better professor than architect? Was The Mother really in that first econ class, and when will Ted finally meet her? Talk all about it in the comments! — Angela Dalecki
In the Season 5 premiere, Ted starts his new teaching job at Columbia University. But the big story is Barney and Robin. In last season's finale, they kissed... but then what? Can two commitment-phobes make it work in a serious relationship — if that's what they're even calling it?

Lintott homepage
Christopher John Lintott (born 1980) is an English Professor of Astrophysics and Citizen Science lead in the Department of Physics at the University of Oxford.[2][3] Lintott is involved in a number of popular science projects aimed at bringing astronomy to a wider audience. He is the primary presenter of the BBC series The Sky at Night, having previously been co-presenter with Patrick Moore until Moore's death in 2012. Lintott is also a co-author of the book Bang! – The Complete History of the Universe with Patrick Moore and Queen guitarist and astrophysicist Brian May.[4][5]
Academic background & Current activities[edit]
Lintott attended Torquay Boys' Grammar School in Devon. In 1999, while still at school, he won a $500 Earth and Space Sciences award and the Priscilla and Bart Bok Honorable Mention Award at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair for an article on 'Cosmic dust Around Young stellar objects'.[citation needed] This came from a six-week project at the University of Hertfordshire funded by a Nuffield bursary.
Lintott read Natural Sciences at Magdalene College, University of Cambridge and received a PhD in astrophysics from University College London, his thesis being on the subject of star formation. He is a fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society and was formerly a Fulford junior research fellow at Somerville College between 2006 and 2010.[6][7]
Lintott is currently co-director of the Programme on Computational Cosmology and Citizen Science Project Lead in the Department of Physics at the University of Oxford,[3][8] and a Research Fellow of New College.[9] He was the Director of Citizen Science Initiatives at the Adler Planetarium from 2010 until 2012.[10]
His research focuses on galaxy evolution and the application of astrochemical models of star formation to galaxies beyond the Milky Way; particularly the use of sulphur compounds as a signature of stars that are in the process of formation.[6]
After a recommendation from Ed Vaizey, who was then the Culture Minister, the Prime Minister D. Cameron appointed Chris Lintott as Astronomy Trustee of the National Maritime Museum (NMM). His appointment ran from the 24th June 2010 until the 23rd June 2014.[7]
Chris Lintott has published a wide variety of peer-reviewed scientific papers.[3][11][12]
Popular science[edit]
The Sky at Night[edit]
Lintott first appeared on the BBC astronomy programme The Sky at Night, presented by Patrick Moore, as a guest in 2000. As Moore's mobility deteriorated, Lintott acquired an increasingly prominent role, often providing on-location reporting from events covered by the programme. In an interview in 2007, with Mark Lawson, Moore described him as "eminently suitable" as a presenter.[13] He jointly presented the programme with Moore until the latter's death in December 2012. Since the February 2013 episode, Chris Lintott has been a co-presenter with Lucie Green (until December 2013) and with Maggie Aderin-Pocock (since February 2014).
In July 2004, Moore suffered a near-fatal bout of food poisoning and Lintott stood in as the sole presenter of that month's episode.[14] It was the only episode which Moore did not present since the show was first broadcast on 24 April 1957 until his death[15]
Galaxy Zoo & The Zooniverse[edit]
Lintott is the co-founder, along with Kevin Schawinski, of Galaxy Zoo, an online crowdsourcing project where members of the public can volunteer their time to assist in classifying over a million galaxies.[16] The project was inspired by, among others, Stardust@home. Describing the Galaxy Zoo project, Lintott commented that: "One advantage is that you get to see parts of space that have never been seen before. These images were taken by a robotic telescope and processed automatically, so the odds are that when you log on, that first galaxy you see will be one that no human has seen before."[16]
Lintott is the P.I. for the citizen science web portal Zooniverse.[17] Quoting from the Zooniverse Team page: "Astronomer and founder of both Galaxy Zoo and the Zooniverse that grew from it, Chris is interested in how galaxies form and evolve, how citizen science can change the world".[17] Lintott is also the chair of the Citizen Science Alliance, the organisation that produces, maintains and develops The Zooniverse.[18]
In October 2006, Chris Lintott, Patrick Moore and Brian May co-authored a book entitled Bang! – The Complete History of the Universe, which was produced by Canopus Books and published by Carlton Books on 23 October 2006.[4] It has been translated into 13 languages and has appeared in paperback. As suggested by the title, the illustrated book is a history of the Universe from the Big Bang to its eventual predicted end. It is aimed at a popular science audience and claims to make its subject matter easily comprehensible to readers without any knowledge of astronomy.[19]
In October 2012, Brian May, Patrick Moore and Chris Lintott co-authored a book entitled The Cosmic Tourist: The 100 Most Awe-inspiring Destinations in the Universe.[20] On the book's PR page, it is stated: "Take your seats for the greatest tour ever – one that encompasses no less than the whole of the Universe."[21]
In 2011, Lintott was awarded the Royal Society Kohn Award. He was awarded this (quoting from the Royal Society webpage): "For his excellent engagement with society in matters of science and its societal dimension." [22]
In 2013, Lintott was awarded the Oxford Internet Institute Internet and Society Award. He was given this (quoting from the OII website): "in recognition of Galaxy Zoo's outstanding contributions to research by using crowd-sourced citizen science to capitalise on the availability of online big data-sets."[6]
In 2014, Lintott was awarded the Beatrice M. Tinsley from the American Astronomical Society. He was awarded this (quoting from the AAA website): "For his insight and creativity that created a transformative approach to science by engaging nonscientists in cutting edge research."[23]

Has anyone restored a server from NTBACKUP?
What procedure do you take?
What steps do you follow?
Is everything backed up?
When you restore is it as if your server had never gone?
Just had to do this Thursday night due to corrupt LSASS error. Server had mirrorred discs with C: (system) partition and D: (data) partition. I reinstalled Windows 2003 Server to the system partition from CD, doing a format of the disc. Once up and running I used NTBackup to restore the whole of c: and the system from the previous night's tape. Reboot, everything up and running fine.
I have played with this in the past just so that I knew that I could do it and I have found that if I don't format the disc as part of the reinstallation, all sorts of strange things can happen.
It's worth mentioning ASR (automated system recovery) which is part of NTBackup and, if I could have found the discs (!) would have saved me a lot of trouble last week.
What roll(s) is the server currently performing eg: Domain Controller/File Server/Exchange server?
I would suggest that the recovery procedure for a server should be adapted depending on the roll(s) of the server.
Sometimes it is more effective to re-build a server from scratch and only recover the data required for the roll(s)
Eg: for a DC you could re-build the server and just restore the active directory/sysvol/DHCP/DNS etc.
It all really depends on the typr of backup you have done...
If you have just an ordinary back up then it will involve having to reinstall th OS and then restoring the data.
If however you have been diligent you would have carried out an ASR (automatic system restore) backups. A restore from here will put your system back up and running very quickly including all of your AD database.
Cheese and Ham or Chicken are my favourite ones.
Question on this...
a couple of the ASR backups I've been using have been to either USB drives or network drives via mapper network letters... I've not checked but I've a niggling feeling that this may not be a simple ASR restore... Anything I should bear in mind?


text: Figure 1 exemplifies the approach in terms of exploratory computations for solid-cancer and leukemia mortality in Hiroshima (RERF 1994, 1997). A linear-quadratic dependence on dose is used that has the form , where Dγ is the gamma ray organ dose and Dn the neutron organ dose. R corresponds to the limiting relative biologic effectiveness (RBE) of neutrons at low doses and in these computations is assumed to equal 15, which is close to the current radiation weighting factor assumed for fission neutrons. There would be little difference in the results if the quadratic term were taken to be of the form b(Dγ. +Dn)2.
