BBC to Preserve Memory of Its 'Forgotten' Articles October 17, 2014 The BBC will publish and continually update a list of its published articles that were removed from Google searches under Europe's "right to be forgotten" rule. David Jordan, director of editorial policy and standards for the BBC, announced the move. The decision is a reaction to the EC ruling that search engines must remove "inadequate, irrelevant or no longer relevant" links upon request. |
Wireless Carriers Could Take a Shine to Ad-Blocking October 14, 2014 Shine Technologies may well upend the Net neutrality issue with the launch of AdSight, an ad-tracking product in development. AdSight reportedly will allow carriers to monitor the ads being delivered over their pipes. The data provided will be very granular, including who the ads are from and the level of individual ad impressions. The technology also will be able to block ads selectively. |
The Double Irish Jig Is Up October 14, 2014 Apple and other multinational companies that have been exploiting the notorious Double Irish tax loophole for years will have to look elsewhere for a comparable tax dodge. The Irish government's budget, presented on Tuesday by Finance Minister Michael Noonan, closes the loophole. The country's residency rules have been amended to require that all companies registered in Ireland be tax residents. |
Snapchat Hackers Could Be Prosecuted for Child Porn Offenses October 13, 2014 Private videos and pictures shared between tens of thousands of Snapchat users -- possibly as many as 200,000 -- were posted online by hackers over the weekend in an episode dubbed the "Snappening." Much of the content is sexual, including many nude photos -- some possibly of minors. The hackers appear to have gone for maximum embarrassment and humiliation with this particular breach. |
One Way Around the Mobile Net Neutrality Conundrum October 09, 2014 Verizon Wireless may be bitterly regretting the challenge Verizon made to the FCC's Net neutrality rules. There's little doubt competing wireless providers are. Verizon in 2010 sued the FCC over its mandate that ISPs treat all Internet data the same. The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals this year agreed with Verizon and struck down the rules. Now the FCC is putting it all back on the table. |
AT&T Will Fork Over $80M for Mobile Cramming October 09, 2014 AT&T Mobility will pay $80 million for refunds to consumers who were unlawfully billed for unauthorized third-party charges in a practice known as "mobile cramming," the Federal Trade Commission announced on Wednesday. AT&T billed customers for hundreds of millions of dollars in subscription charges -- typically in increments of $9.99 per month -- levied by other companies. |
DEA Lifts Woman's Identity, Creates Fake Facebook Page October 08, 2014 The U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency reportedly co-opted a woman's identity to create a fake Facebook page as a ruse to investigate suspects. The agency posted racy pictures of the woman, then known as "Sondra Prince," as well as a photo of her young son and niece, to the sham page. The photos were taken from her cellphone, which DEA had seized when Prince was arrested in connection with a drug ring. |
GT Files for Chap 11 After Apple's Sapphire Interest Wanes October 07, 2014 GT Advanced Technologies and seven of its direct and indirect subsidiaries on Monday announced they had filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. GT, which makes sapphire components used in the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch, expects the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Hampshire to authorize the company to conduct business as usual while it attempts to resolve its current financial issues. |
EFF Raises Alarm Over ComputerCOP's Spying Ways October 02, 2014 ComputerCOP software, a parental monitoring application that long has been recommended and distributed by law enforcement agencies, is little more than spyware with significant potential for abuse, the EFF reported Wednesday. The software includes a keylogger that could expose a family's personal information by transmitting what's typed to third-party servers without encryption, the EFF said. |
Attorney Slams Google for Making Money Off Nude Celeb Pics October 02, 2014 Google may be on the receiving end of a $100 million lawsuit from attorneys representing some of the celebrities whose nude photos were hacked from their iCloud accounts and subsequently posted online. Entertainment lawyer Martin Singer has sent a letter to Google's top executives and its legal staff, accusing the company of ignoring a take-down request sent to it four weeks ago. |
BYOD Privacy: Do Employees Have Rights? October 02, 2014 Using personal devices to conduct business has become commonplace, whether employers require it or employees voluntary do so. The use of personal devices creates a privacy challenge. Employers want access to the devices, and employees want to protect their personal data contained on them. The term "devices" itself is deceiving. Many consider employee-owned devices to be smartphones and tablets. |
FBI Director Comey Gives Apple and Google a Tongue-Lashing September 26, 2014 FBI Director James Comey on Thursday strongly criticized Apple and Google for hardening information stored in smartphones by encrypting data, making it inaccessible to law enforcement even with a court order. The FBI has had conversations with both Apple and Google over the encryption features, Comey said, although he personally was not involved in those talks. |
The Sky Is Droning September 26, 2014 The FAA on Thursday gave the green light for six aerial photo and video production companies to begin using unmanned aircraft systems, also known as "drones." To incorporate the devices in film and TV production, the companies will be required to hold private pilot certificates, keep their drones within line of sight at all times, and restrict flights to a so-called sterile area. |
Google Brings Hamster-Eating Into Sticks-and-Stones Brawl With News Corp. September 19, 2014 News Corp. and Google have lashed out at each other as the EU reconsiders the terms of its proposed antitrust settlement with the latter. News Corp. essentially accused Google of nefarious behavior in a letter to the European Competition Commissioner over the EU's proposed antitrust settlement with Google. Perhaps the irony of the situation hit Google hard. |
FTC Gives E-tailers Bad Shipping News September 18, 2014 The Federal Trade Commission has updated a longstanding rule governing mail- and phone-based retailers to explicitly include e-commerce vendors as well, meaning that online retailers now must abide by a 30-day shipping requirement or refund customers' payments if they can't. Merchants in violation could be sued by the FTC for injunctive relief or monetary civil penalties. |
FCC Chews on the Mobile Net Neutrality Question September 17, 2014 The FCC on Tuesday hosted a roundtable discussion on the possibility of Net neutrality rules being applied to mobile networks. Participants in the talk included representatives from The Center for Media Justice, Consumers Union and CTIA. FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler earlier this year suggested that the 2010 rules, which exempted mobile services from Net neutrality provisions, should be reconsidered. |
Feds Wielded Baseball Bat to Win Yahoo's NSA Cooperation September 12, 2014 The Obama administration threatened Yahoo with fines of $250,000 daily if it wouldn't comply with demands to hand over user information to the NSA, Yahoo has disclosed. Yahoo had filed suit against the demands in 2007, citing the Fourth Amendment. "They basically said you must do this thing that you don't want to do or we'll put you out of business," said ITIF's Daniel Castro. |
If Google Were French September 11, 2014 Europeans are relentlessly attacking Google: A German official called for its breakup, a French minister charged it was a threat to sovereignty, and a publisher compared it to a dragon, according to a report. Really? I would have thought the euro and the draconian austerity program needed to keep it functioning threatened sovereignty more than Google. |
Pols Besieged by Fast, Furious Messages on Internet Slowdown Day September 10, 2014 U.S. lawmakers were getting an estimated 1,000 calls a minute from constituents concerned about Net neutrality by noon Pacific Time on Internet Slowdown Day, an online demonstration held on Wed., Sept. 10. "We've set a new record for FCC comments and beat Janet Jackson's 'wardrobe malfunction,'" said David Moon of Demand Progress. Father of the Internet Tim Berners-Lee tweeted his support. |
Americans Mad as Hell Over Proposed Net Neutrality Rules September 04, 2014 More than 99 percent of the 800,000 or so comments on Net neutrality the FCC released last month were in favor of an open Internet, according to the Sunlight Foundation's analysis of the comments. At least 60 percent of the comments, or more than 484,000, were form letters written by organized campaigns, although that is a lower percentage than is common for high-volume regulatory issues. |
California Lays Down the Kill-Switch Law August 27, 2014 Gov. Jerry Brown on Monday signed into law a bill requiring that anti-theft measures be incorporated into all smartphones sold within California. It doesn't specify the particular technologies used to enable that capability, but it does require that the feature, also known as a "kill switch," give smartphone users the ability to remotely disable their devices in the event they're lost or stolen. |
NSA Shares Its Data Wealth August 26, 2014 The United States National Security Agency secretly shares the communications data it has amassed over the years with nearly 24 U.S. government agencies using a search engine resembling Google Search, according to documents released by Edward Snowden. That's more than 850 billion records of phone calls, emails, cellphone locations and Internet chats. |
Google Autocomplete's Brushes With Libel August 25, 2014 Can an automated Google feature that ostensibly helps users with a search be a basis for libel? Courts in Germany, Italy and Hong Kong have had to field that question. Google's position is that there is no human intervention, and that its algorithm is based merely on what others have searched for, or strings of words in indexed pages. Autocomplete predictions are just possible search terms. |
Google May Start Grooming Little Googlers August 19, 2014 Google may soon allow kids under 13 to have their own personal accounts on services such as YouTube and Gmail. Under the new system, parents would be able to set up accounts for their children, control their use of those accounts, and regulate the information collected about them. "You could say that Google is just recognizing reality," said the Local Search Association's Greg Sterling. |

OSIPOFF: Purdue QB Rob Henry pushes forward after poor opener
By MICHAEL OSIPOFF firstname.lastname@example.com Twitter: @MichaelOsipoff September 4, 2013 11:20PM
Silverberry Mouhon, Rob Henry
Updated: October 7, 2013 12:56PM
Not too long after Purdue's thud-of-a-loss at Cincinnati to begin the Darrell Hazell era, Rob Henry was compelled to express his disappointment in his play on Twitter.
"I apologize to all my family, teammates, friends and fans. My performance today was unacceptable. Never played that bad in my life," Henry tweeted.
And then: "Staying off twitter for a while because there obviously needs to be a lot more work done and a lot less talking on my part."
He didn't sleep soundly on Saturday night.
But by Sunday, Henry had turned the page on his first game as the team's starting quarterback since 2010, or at least attempted as best he could.
Heck, what else was he going to do? Dwell on it to his detriment?
No. Extract what you can in order to avoid a repeat, and then be done with it.
Henry owned his fair share (at least) of the responsibility for the Boilermakers' loss and their performance in it, including immediately in the post-game news conference. He continued to hold himself accountable, part of the reason he is so highly respected by his teammates, viewed as such a leader.
"You learn from it, and you put it behind you — you have to," Henry said on Tuesday. "You can't let it bother you for the next game."
That next game comes Saturday against Indiana State, and we'll assume (dangerous?) Henry plays rather well. But certainly what will matter more than the game against the FCS Sycamores, who Indiana overwhelmed to open the season, is how he plays against the spate of challenging opponents to follow.
After the game against the Bearcats, Hazell said he never considered calling for either backup, redshirt freshman Austin Appleby or freshman Danny Etling, as it snowballed for the Boilermakers. During the preseason, Henry clearly outplayed his young counterparts to earn the starting job.
The time for any sort of dramatic change — after a single game, albeit an awful one — hasn't arrived.
Still, everyone involved knows the fifth-year senior must play better than 18-of-35 for 161 yards with two interceptions (one returned for a touchdown), and two fumbles (though Purdue did recover both).
"He wasn't as 'on' as we had seen throughout the course of camp," Hazell said on Tuesday. "So he needs to be a little bit more accurate, and get us in and out of the huddle a little bit quicker."
Hazell has taken steps to help ease that communication process, which was an issue against Cincinnati. He wants the offense to be at the line of scrimmage with at least 15 seconds left on the play clock. He has spoken with offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach John Shoop about further scaling back the game plan.
Regardless, Henry still will have make the necessary throws, the necessary plays. And he will continue to have the chance to show what he can do, for the foreseeable future.
"I think that you have to give Rob an opportunity to go back into the position. The guy has not played for a couple years," Hazell said. "I understand that the fans are probably a little upset, as we all are, but I think you have to have a little bit of patience with him. And then at the end, they will be happy about Rob Henry's play."

The face of aging in the United States is changing dramatically and much of the 21st Century will be defined by population aging (Goldstein, 2010). People are living longer, achieving higher levels of education, living in poverty less often, and experiencing increasingly lower rates of disability. Life expectancy nearly doubled during the 20th Century with a ten-fold increase in the number of Americans age 65 or older. Today, there are approximately 35 million Americans age 65 or older, and this number is expected to double in the next 25 years. The oldest old – people age 85 or older – constitute the fastest growing segment of the U.S. population. Currently about four million people, this population could top 19 million by 2050. And living to 100 is becoming increasingly commonplace. In 1950, there were approximately 3,000 centenarians in the United States. By 2050, there could be nearly one million. The challenge for the 21st Century will be to make these added years as healthy and productive as possible and to continue the current trend of decline in disability across all segments of the population.
The racial and ethnic makeup of the older population is also expected to change with approximately 14 million older Hispanics, 8.6 million older African/African-Americans, and 5.8 million older adults from other racial and ethnic groups. Research on aging continues to document the existence of persistent health differentials among older racial and ethnic groups in the United States, both before and after age 65. While life expectancy may be increasing, gaps continue; life expectancy at birth, in 2000, averaged 77.4 years for Caucasians and 71.7 for Black Americans. While disability rates are declining, older Black Americans have higher rates of disability in activities of daily living and experience a gap of 5 percent reporting no disability, with 75 percent of Blacks age 65 and older saying they have no disability compared with 80 percent of older Caucasians (Manton, PNAS May 22, 2001). To reiterate, current population projections suggest that by 2050, the total number of non-Hispanic whites, aged 65 and over will double, the number of Blacks, aged 65 and over will triple and the number of Hispanic elders will increase eleven-fold (IOM, CPOP, Understanding Racial and Ethnic Differences in Health in Late Life, 2004).
Modern medicine and new insights into lifestyle and other environmental influences are allowing a growing number of people to remain healthy, and socially and emotionally vital into advanced ages. As life expectancy increases, however, diseases and conditions that threaten the health of older people remain a concern. For example, more than half of all Americans 65 or older show evidence of osteoarthritis in at least one joint.[1] One in every two women and one in four men over age 50 will break a bone due to osteoporosis.[2] Cardiovascular disease, cancer, and diabetes remain widespread among older Americans, and close to five million Americans 65 years or older suffer from Alzheimer's disease.[3] In addition, many older Americans suffer from multiple health problems, and the existence of such comorbidities often complicates treatment and can dramatically affect quality of life.
Our ability to reduce the burden of illness among older and racial/ethnic minority adults will depend on an increased understanding of the dynamics of aging and how they interact with various environmental and lifestyle factors in individuals. We need to explore "aging" not as a single process but rather as an intricate web of interdependent genetic, biochemical, physiological, economic, social, and psychological factors, some of which are better understood than others. In addition to research on the biological basis of aging, some scientists are working to gain new insights into disease processes and comorbidities, the prevalence of which increases with advanced age, and to use this knowledge to develop more effective ways to prevent, diagnose, and treat diseases and conditions of aging. Others are exploring behavioral and social factors involved in aging and how they interact with genetics and biology. Still others are concerned with the economic and societal consequences of a rapidly aging population. Each of the efforts enables us to advance knowledge redressing health disparities. Building on past discoveries, we will continue to focus on finding effective interventions to ensure that as people live longer, all can do so in better health and with greater independence.
The National Institute on Aging (NIA) leads a national scientific effort to understand the nature of aging in order to promote the health and well being of older adults. NIA's mission is to:
We carry out our mission by supporting extramural research at universities and medical centers across the United States and around the world and a vibrant intramural research program at NIA laboratories in Baltimore and Bethesda, Maryland.
Our vision is to achieve a time when older adults enjoy robust health and independence, remain physically and mentally active, and continue to make positive contributions to their families and communities. The content of the Health Disparities Strategic Plan is complementary to and reflective of the content in the NIA strategic document, Living Long & Well in the 21st Century: Strategic Directions for Research on Aging.
NIA uses a deliberative process for categorizing research projects as minority health and health disparity research. The process is consistent with the NIH process and accounts for the inclusion of minorities and other health disparity populations in research activities in five categories: basic research; clinical research; infrastructure; research training and career development; and outreach. For purposes of this plan, minority health issues are considered to be a subset of health disparities issues. Racial minorities are defined by statute as American Indians/Alaskan Natives (including Eskimos and Aleuts); Asian Americans; Native Hawaiians and other Pacific Islanders; and Black or African Americans. Ethnic group members are Hispanic or Latino (i.e., individuals whose origin is Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central or South American, or any other Spanish-speaking country). Health disparity populations, as defined by Public Law 106-525, have a significant disparity in the overall rate of disease incidence, prevalence, morbidity, mortality, or survival rates in the population as compared to the health status of the general population and include racial/ethnic minority populations, low socioeconomic status (low-SES) populations, and rural populations. Additional search terms used to identify relevant aging and health disparities projects and activities are: homeless, low income, Medicaid, medical indigence, medically underserved population, migrant, public assistance, rural area, social class, social mobility, social status, and urban poverty area.
The elimination of the racial gap in life expectancy is a major national priority. The time it will take to reduce the overall gap will depend on the speed of reduction of the leading cause-specific mortality differences, which will require intensified efforts in both prevention and treatment (Wang, Remington, and Kindig, 1999). This document outlines the broad strategic directions of the Institute and provides a point of reference for setting priorities and a framework for systematically analyzing the Institute's scientific portfolio and assessing progress in achieving our goals for eliminating health disparities. NIA strives to ensure that funding decisions and research initiatives address current and projected public health needs and take full advantage of scientific and technological opportunities for advancing research on aging. With constant monitoring of the health needs of our older population and regular consultation with our stakeholders, we will optimize our efforts to improve the quality of life of older adults in minority and other health disparity populations.
At the NIA, the Office of Planning, Analysis, and Evaluation (OPAE) guides, facilitates, and supports the Institute's planning, portfolio analysis, evaluation, and reporting activities. OPAE staff work closely with Institute leadership and scientific staff, and team regularly with NIA's legislative liaison, budget, and communications offices. This office functions to categorize, map, and analyze NIA's scientific research, resources, and accomplishments in support of priority-setting, planning, evaluation, and reporting efforts. It also provides consultation for NIA staff on evaluation design and implementation, and assistance in applying for evaluation set-aside funds.
Divisions and/or programmatic components of the NIA are typically evaluated every four years. NIA evaluations are used to assess the overall effectiveness of the division or component to determine what changes might be warranted for future progress, including potential adjustments to scope, goals, and objectives. The process for evaluation includes cooperation to (1) establish a project plan and approach, (2) identify qualified external candidates for and recruit expert panel members, and (3) establish the schedule for and organize the expert panel meetings, evaluation, report development, and review/evaluation. The evaluation can consist of three primary tasks: (1) Review of extant information about the evaluation entity, including comparisons across previous published requests for applications (RFAs), summaries of activities and accomplishments, and commentary provided by NIA program staff; (2) Guided interviews with principal investigators (PIs), which can be supplemented by written responses; and (3) Deliberations by an expert panel comprising invited members. Expert panels meet by teleconference and typically once on site at the NIA. Recommendations are generated during a second or third teleconference and included in a subsequent report to the NIA Director. Reports are shared with the National Advisory Council on Aging. The NIA continues to successfully compete for evaluation set-aside funding from the NIH Division of Program Coordination, Planning, and Strategic Initiatives in our efforts to improve NIA program efficiency, effectiveness, and goal attainment.
The NIA leadership utilizes the information made available through evaluations to plan future initiatives, prioritize funding, identify opportunities for collaboration, and report progress. Evaluation results also provide the National Advisory Council on Aging with crucial information that will help them to more effectively advise the NIA Director. We anticipate applying a similar evaluation process to the area of minority health and health disparities within the five year horizon covered by this strategic plan.
We are pleased to share through this plan our best insights into the future of research on health disparities among older adults and the role of the National Institute on Aging (NIA) in realizing that future. The content of this plan is complementary to and reflective of the content in the NIA strategic document, Living Long &Well in the 21st Century: Strategic Directions for Research on Aging. The online version includes hyperlinks to information about NIA programs and initiatives associated with the various priority areas described in this document.
Our priorities as reflected in the areas of emphasis in this document are to:
The total direct FY 2009 Health Disparity funding was $120,902,123.

Banks taking over the physical economy – a dangerous security risk
by Henry Garman on July 10, 2013
Giant Banks Take Over Real Economy As Well As Financial System … Enabling Manipulation On a Vast Scale - by WashingtonsBlog
Big Banks Move Into Uranium Mining, Petroleum Products, Aluminum, Ownership and Operation Of Airports, Toll Roads, and Ports, and Electricity
Top economists, financial experts and bankers say that the big banks are too large … and their very size is threatening the economy.
They say we need to break up the big banks to stabilize the economy.
They say that too much interconnectedness leads to financial instability.
They also say that the big financial players are able to manipulate virtually every market in the world.
But the big banks have only gotten bigger – and more interconnected – than before the phony financial "reform" legislation was passed a couple of years ago.
As if that wasn't bad enough, four congressmen point out that the big banks are not taking over the tangible economy as well … which allows them to control and manipulate the markets.
Introduction to Jubilee by Lee Van Ham of Jubilee Economics.org
by Henry Garman on July 3, 2013
Lee Van Ham explains the biblical origins and goals of the Jubilee, an alternative vision of economics and life that stood in opposition to the empires/superpowers of the day— deliverance from slavery/domination at the hands of Pharaoh in Egypt being a foundational event in Hebrew identity.
Lee Van Ham recalls asking his bible professor in his senior year about the Year of Jubilee and was told that it was an idea that "we don't really know what to do with, a quaint idea that no one was sure was ever practiced". This answer did not satisfy him and he felt there had to be more. The practice of Jubilee appears difficult to those supporting the ideology of a dominating economy, for anyone supporting the superpower idea. All creation feels the oppression of dominating power structures.
Jubilee is about recovering eyesight, for those blinded by our culture, for those who want guidance about how to live an acceptable year of the Lord. It's difficult for many people who read the Bible to think that the Bible has an economic model. Biblical economics has been thought of more in terms of stewardship, success and ethics within the current model rather than supplying an alternative.
Just as a very privatized salvation, a very privatized economics has been adopted rather than the cooperative vision of Jesus. Jubilee is a wonderful picture of an economics that is so much better than the dominating model of empires.
Biblical eschatology is often viewed as mommy and daddy coming to rescue us, rather than a conflict in which we are engaged. The book of Revelation speaks of a battle against a dragon, against a prostitute, against Mystery Babylon the Great. Business leaders in the book of Revelation are seen as prostituting themselves.
Heaven is seen as something coming down to earth, rather than believers being taken away, as in the "left behind" version of the end. Taking up a cross and being a witness to a new order replacing the old demands a cost. Dietrich Bonhoeffer in "The Cost of Discipleship" wrote that one could not support the Third Reich and have an effective Christian witness at the same time. We cannot follow global domination economics as practiced today and advance the Kingdom of God. There is a cost involved. Jesus and his economic thinking was contrary to the Jewish leadership who were co-opted by imperial power and the Roman Empire.
Jubilee is a deep and profound economic democracy. It's a wonderful expression of what some of our primary American documents claim. The Jubilee economic model is "strikingly relevant". It's not true that we don't know what to do with it. It challenges oppression and empire. It's not true we don 't know what to do with Jubilee, that we can keep putting off what the Spirit is speaking to us. We need to let go of some entitlements and face the issue of structures of sin.
Hour Money Jubilee – Victory Based on Sacred Economics and Ancient Wisdom
by Henry Garman on February 25, 2013
"Hour Money Jubilee: As usury is theft, Jubilee is Justice" Unique Selling Proposition
"Hour Money Jubilee" is book which lists a step-by-step plan for victory over the "money power". This plan is based upon sacred economics and ancient wisdom. This video lists the benefits of the plan and its "Unique Selling Proposition":
1. Non-violent
2. Empowers humanity
3. Focused on the root cause of evil(usury/money power)
4. Identifies the enemy
5. Puts humanity on the offensive initiative
6. Unites global debt slaves
7. Thrive not merely survive
From the Introduction to Hour Money Jubilee:
A benevolent money serves humanity rather than dominates it. When people have abundant money they are free to work in the vocation of their passion. Their unique human artistry is elevated and their gifts are expressed. Usury free money offers a society without income tax, property tax or interest on loans. A thirty year mortgage is reduced to ten for the same payment. The Non-Aggression Principle and more abundance for social programs are BOTH supported. Both the compassion of the left and the freedom of the right are elevated. Humanity itself is rejoined once Mammon is removed from the equation.
We have started five local, usury-free currencies across the US. Hour-Money is based upon a human being's time. The People are the gold which back the organic, local currencies. There is no need to wait for a vote, or permission from the corrupt. Through this non-violent, peaceful process we can take back our destiny.
Monetary control is necessary for humanity to achieve a future of abundance. There will be no human evolution without an organic, usury-free monetary revolution and Jubilee. In doing so we will be simply following ancient wisdom. Jubilee debt forgiveness is the human rights cause of our time. Innovated, Hour Money technology provides abundance so humanity can dream again. The application of this knowledge is the key to our beautiful future.
Please take some time with an open mind and learn about these powerful, simple, duplicatable solutions to the greatest problems which affect humanity. "What the mind can conceive, and believe; it can achieve". Let's conceive of greater future for ourselves, families and neighbors. With belief in one another we can achieve what many think is impossible.

Should a President lead citizens in a national prayer of repentance?
by Henry Garman on November 27, 2012
In the biblical year of jubilee, the day when the debts of the people were cancelled was the same day when the high priest went into the temple to confess the sins of the nation.
Should a president today lead citizens in a national prayer of repentance? Uganda's Christian president believes so.
The Ugandan news site New Vision reports President Yoweri Museveni celebrated Uganda's 50th anniversary of independence from Britain at the National Jubilee Prayers event by publicly repenting of his personal sin and the sins of the nation.
"I stand here today to close the evil past, and especially in the last 50 years of our national leadership history and at the threshold of a new dispensation in the life of this nation. I stand here on my own behalf and on behalf of my predecessors to repent. We ask for your forgiveness," Museveni prayed.
"We confess these sins, which have greatly hampered our national cohesion and delayed our political, social and economic transformation. We confess sins of idolatry and witchcraft which are rampant in our land. We confess sins of shedding innocent blood, sins of political hypocrisy, dishonesty, intrigue and betrayal," Museveni said.
"Forgive us of sins of pride, tribalism and sectarianism; sins of laziness, indifference and irresponsibility; sins of corruption and bribery that have eroded our national resources; sins of sexual immorality, drunkenness and debauchery; sins of unforgiveness, bitterness, hatred and revenge; sins of injustice, oppression and exploitation; sins of rebellion, insubordination, strife and conflict."

At Presentation House Gallery, North Vancouver, until January 14
On a video monitor at the rear of the gallery, a toothless old man with long, greasy hair, a scruffy beard, and filthy, tattered clothing is talking about his approach to taking photographs. "I have never done anything other than let time pass," he says.
The dirty old man is Miroslav Tichí½. Born in 1926 in Moravia (now part of the Czech Republic) and educated at the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague between 1945 and 1948, he has lived an extremely marginal existence, most of it in his hometown of Kyjov. There, he painted and drew in an early modernist style and then, from the 1960s through the 1980s, took thousands of photographs, 120 of which are on view at Presentation House Gallery. His images are captivating in their anti-institutional aesthetic, their highly evocative imperfections. In their subject matter, however, they are unsettling, even distressing.
Tichí½'s black-and-white photos are characterized by blurred passages of darkness and light, fuzzy figures and indistinct objects, along with blotching, fading, scratches, and discoloration. These effects are the intentional results of his crude, handmade photographic equipment and his concertedly offhand darkroom techniques.
His prints have been additionally distressed with folds, tears, and stains. They've been walked on, slept on, tossed on the floor, thrown out the window, abruptly cropped. Tichí½ has mounted some of his images on old pieces of coloured paper or matted them with dirty and tattered cardboard, which he has then embellished with lines, scribbles, and squiggles. In the documentary on view at the gallery, made by his friend Roman Buxbaum, Tichí½ talks about the apparent flaws in his photos as "poetry"—and indeed, they are. Romantic poetry.
His images have a fugitive quality; the figures captured here are ghostly, haunting, strangely luminous. "People"¦are modeled and modulated by light as if apparitions," writes PHG curator Helga Pakasaar in the show's brochure. The compulsively decorated mats align the work with outsider art, and the prints themselves evoke early, unsophisticated photographic techniques. But the work also resonates with that aspect of contemporary photography that embraces handmade, pinhole, and toy cameras and the low-tech distortions and leakages those devices deliver.
Tichí½ has taken a few photographs of the streets, monuments, and parks of his hometown. By far the majority of his subjects, however, are women. He ogles them endlessly, catching them alone or in pairs or groups, standing in doorways, walking on paved paths, working behind bars, sitting on park benches. Many of the figures are wearing bathing suits, sunbathing in parks or beside the municipal pool. Although a few women look directly at the camera, most are taken unawares. Tichí½ has drawn on some of the images, tracing with pencil or pen the curve of a leg, breast, or buttock.
There seems to be tacit agreement in curatorial and critical circles that Tichí½'s photos must be viewed within the context of his life and times. This runs oddly counter to postmodern thought, which scorns the cult of the individual and the romantic cliché of the alienated artist. In Tichí½'s case, however, much is made of his romantic individuality in the face of repressive political conditions. The story goes that he refused to accommodate the decades-long grip of Communism upon his native land. That his social and creative nonconformity caused him to be repeatedly incarcerated in jails and psychiatric hospitals. That he stopped bathing, that he lived alone in poverty and squalor, that he walked the streets, parks, and squares of Kyjov, his camera hidden beneath his coat, taking self-assigned 100 photos a day. And that he was belatedly discovered by the curatorial establishment and pitched into a world of unsought acclaim.
Much of the biographical framing of his work, however, glosses over an obvious fact: his photos are creepily voyeuristic. Tichí½ frequently appears to be stalking his unnamed subjects, so much so that voyeurism is folded into his aesthetic—the mediations of windows and fences, the images shot from behind or above the subject, or through a telephoto lens. Feminism's critique of the patriarchal attitudes that have prevailed throughout the history of western art, especially the objectification of women, has been curiously discounted here. Yes, Tichí½ was a voyeur, but look, he went to jail! He was poor! He was hungry! He really, really suffered for his right to fetishize women through the lens of his improvised camera.

I can't start AC today. The furnace blower and outside fan don't move at all. Feels like no response. Few facts:
- The furnace was replaced last winter. We did not test the AC since it was cold - I vaguely remember we did a quick test of turning on AC few weeks back and it worked... - Tonight, I can turn on heat and it works fine. I also turned on and off AC switch board few times and no luck. The AC is 15+ years old. Before I call someone, is there anything I can try out? Thanks in advance, - Lan |

Check breaker panel for tripped AC circuit. Could be a faulty thermostat, loose wire connection. The possibilities are numerous. However, the fact that blower works in heating mode is a good sign. IMO |
I switched off main circuit breaker for 15 min and turned it back on, no luck. The fans did not start. Yes at least the blower works in heating mode which is good. I might need to have someone to check the wiring part. |
- Posted by heatseeker (My Page) on Tue, Apr 17, 12 at 9:32
Turn off the main breaker for 24 hours and If nothing happens call a technician. |
lanjin, You might want to consider calling the company that put in your furnace. did the A/C worked before you replaced the furnace? If it does, the people who put in the furnace could accidently wired the 24v wires incorrectly in the furnace. Your furnace controls the A/C also. |
Will blower fan run if u set thermostat to "on" or run instead of auto? The blower fan is separate from outside condenser fan but we all know that. Seems vague when folks say "fan" runs. Which fan? |

sounds like he fixed it. |

Your business was founded on a good idea. Don't let the flood of other good ideas that rushed in afterward drown your efforts.
Missett ruefully recalls the period in the mid-1980s when the fitness industry had gone volcanic and a group of consultants urged her to fan out her company's program. Don't just have franchisees with small Jazzercise operations in strip malls, the consultants said; build your own health clubs, and fill them with Jazzercise and other classes, such as children's gymnastics.
"Well, I only have a degree in theater, not an MBA," Missett says, "so I went along with it." After just one fitness club had been built, she realized she should have stuck to her original concept. "Our strength was the dance program, not all these other things that were popping up, so we stopped doing all those other things."
Similarly, at one point, Gardenburger's Wenner realized his product's energy was spread too thin. In the late 1980s, he brought cheese, milk and chicken substitutes under the Gardenburger umbrella. Then, when sales fell short of his expectations, he had a revelation: "If we didn't focus on the familiar round shape of a Gardenburger, this fabulous product of ours was going to get lost in the hustle." So he got rid of everything but the burger line in the early 1990s.
8. Make It Work
In 1993, Burgerville USA was developing a location that Mears says "looked like it would have been wonderful for us." The trouble was, he had resolved at the start of that fiscal year not to open restaurants that wouldn't pull in at least $1 million a year, and the analysis suggested this site would pull in about $900,000. That's not bad, and not far off the mark, "But I had taken a stand and said we just couldn't live that way," he says. "So we added breakfast items and espresso, tweaked the look of the restaurant, and we [generated] twice the volume we'd anticipated-$1.8 million the first year."
The lesson that emerged from that experience, he says, was if you know what you want, don't back off.
9. Play the Margins
It's common practice to check in periodically with major clients and verify that your firm is still on their minds, treating them right and deserving of their business. But Giglierano says an entrepreneur who wants to see sales rise will resolve to do the same with smaller and even marginal customers.
"Some of these small customers have probably remained small because you aren't calling on them enough," says Giglierano. They want to be treated like important clients, not like also-rans. "If they saw somebody from your company more often, they would have increased their orders."
These small customers may be on the verge of major growth and could take you up with them. But how will you know that if you only pay attention to the heavy-hitters?
10. Relive Your Failures
The beginning of the year offers a clean slate, a chance to put problems behind you and move forward. Samaha suggests a wiser way of looking at things might be to put any failings of the past year in the middle of the table and let everybody take a long, painful look at them.
"I'm not talking about a day of finger-pointing and cutting off heads," Samaha says. "I'm talking about doing a post-mortem in a learning environment, where mistakes are valuable learning tools, just as successes are."

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Copper!
Facts about Copper
- Breed: Cocker Spaniel
- Color: White - With Red, Golden, Orange Or Chestnut
- Age: Young
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Male
Copper's Info...
I am already neutered, purebred, and up to date with shots.
"Belly rubs...belly rubs...I love me some belly rubs! And toys...LOTS of toys. I LOVE toys"!
If you've got the time, he's got the belly. Copper is a happy 2-3 year old buff and white male who lives for belly rubs. He will roll over onto his back and stay there for hours as long as he has someone rubbing his belly. But when the belly rubs are over, he runs and grabs a toy and wants to play or chase squirrels. This handsome little guy came to us from a local shelter and does great with small dogs but doesn't much care for bigger ones. Copper is house trained but can be a bit set in his ways and would do best in an all adult belly rubber home.
Other Pets at Cocker Spaniel Rescue of East TX
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Copper, a Houston Cocker Spaniel dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Cocker Spaniel for sale in Houston, or seeking a Cocker Spaniel dog from a breeder in Houston.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Houston already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Houston breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Cocker Spaniel breeders who help with Cocker Spaniel rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Houston paves the way for another one to be saved.

Organizations increasingly outsource technology and business processes to service organizations. However, although the technology and processes are outsourced, the risk is not. As the trend in outsourcing and off shoring continues to expand, user organizations will be seeking an increased level of assurance over the integrity of the service organization's control environment. In addition, with the recent introduction of new regulatory and compliance requirements, many organizations are struggling to understand, react, and respond to the implications of these standards.
KPMG's IT Attestation practice helps organizations satisfy third-party risk and compliance assurance requirements and demonstrate the integrity of their control environment. Our globally accredited team provides reports on controls that are likely to be relevant to user organizations' internal control over financial reporting; reports over security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality and privacy using Trust Service Principles; and agreed-upon procedures reports. We provide actionable insights to help organizations enhance their internal controls environment, reduce business operation interruptions resulting from multiple audits, and help companies provide transparent controls-related information to customers and other stakeholders.
Potential Benefits
Featured Success Story
A leading provider of ERP software added a cloud-based ERP offering. The client chose KPMG due to our leadership in cloud computing and our vast experience in offering IT attestation services. The client was new to the IT attestation process, and KPMG helped the client choose the appropriate IT attestation product (SOC 1 in this case), conducted a readiness assessment, and provided recommendations for improving the service organization's controls processes before beginning a SOC examination.

or maybe even a video for "ALL ACROSS THE WORLD" since epcot contains pavilions for countries all across the world...not just america
Printable View
or maybe even a video for "ALL ACROSS THE WORLD" since epcot contains pavilions for countries all across the world...not just america
Or maybe "Soarin over the Land" and it takes you over the different climates of the world, like the desert, the mountains, the plains, the beaches, ect, to fit into the theming of The Land...
ya i agree that is a good idea.... and then they could also add effects like heat in the desert scene ocean mist in the ocean scene, etc. i think that would be cool
i didnt get to experience soarin the last time i was in Epcot due to the line being over 2 hours.. but from what everyone here is saying im going to have to experience it when im there in 2 weeks = )
The last two times I was there in March and June it was packed. (March) Arrived in Epcot @10:30ish and quickly went straight to soarin for a FastPass received a pass for 7:30!!! The line at that time was 1:45 and was still 90 minutes when I returned at 7:30. I consider this a must-see and especially if you are just visitng once or for a long period of time. June wasn't much better. If you can go during the off-season, maybe the stand-by line isn't bad, but I think this is a must FastPass location.
Soarin' Over California makes more sense in Florida than it does in Anaheim. I never could understand why they would put a park about California in California. I was glad to see it migrate to WDW, but I was hoping that they would clean up the really poor edits in the film. They had a really great chance to cover the straight cuts with transitions through clouds. They could have used the queue video for transitions. Instead, we are left with really poor and abrupt cuts between diverse locations. Very sloppy, IMHO.
Maybe that is why its nick name is "Snorin' Over Caifornia". The pre-show and ride vehicle are done really well, though.
I don't know anything about it but a "Soarin over America" would be great Start in California swoop down the Southwest tot he grand canyon, sweep acroos the midwest, the great lakes NYC (for the Statue of Liberty, go down the Appalachians, and end up in WDW of course!
I think they should have a Soarin' rotation of films so you never know exactly where you are going to go. Keep CA, and add Florida, New England, The seven Wonders, Europe, The Far East etc... That would keep me coming back for more!
Girlstar - I waited about an hour in standby even though the wait time posted was 120 minutes and when I rode the first time two years ago at Disneyland I was on it in fifteen but then again I rode as a single. It's all in what you like to do, the standby line now has games and videos........of course they put those in after I left the World lmao

A review of 888 Subtitlesby verbmchansen on 09/04/2004This has been a pleasant viewing experience. A fun to watch, creatively designed piece of cinema. 888 subtitles has a great mix of minimal special effects, comedic writing, sharp editing, and surprisingly decent acting abilities. Part slap stick, part murder thriller, this film is certainly recommended.
A review of Baby xby verbmchansen on 09/04/2004Baby X is a short, direct, and realistic look at what many people must suffer though in their lives. Although a bit amateurish, this short is powerful and strong, with great potential. The music works quite well with the film, and the creative use of filters when showing the sister is nice. Editing and lighting needs some work, but a great start!
A review of Efexorby verbmchansen on 02/04/2003The film at first, was too dark, I couldn't make out the typewriter box or barely see the latch. Then laster when the light is turned on, it eliminates all doubt about lighting. It wasn't overlooked, which gives even more credit to the director for creating an interesting piece. The music was very good and ran well with the visuals.The shot of the main character smoking &... read

128K Sequential Read/Write
The 128K sequential speeds reflect the maximum sequential throughput of the SSD using a realistic file size encountered in an enterprise scenario.
The extra performance we observe with random workloads does not carry over to sequential read data, with an average of 496 MB/s for both settings.
The X210 sequential write speed also remains unaffected, with only 1 MB/s of difference between the two with 447 MB/s for the 100% LBA results.
Surprisingly, our mixed workload testing teases out a performance delta with OP in the 10-70% range, with the extra OP (80% LBA) experiencing acceleration.
With a pure sequential write workload, there is very little difference in latency performance.
With 100% LBA the X210 averages 4.12 Watts, and 80% LBA averages 4.08 Watts.
100% LBA averages 108 MB/s per Watt, with the 80% LBA nearly identical.

Sheriff: Ex-cop Christopher Dorner died from gunshot to head, hid in condo to elude authorities
Wound appears self inflicted
SAN BERNARDINO, Calif. - Authorities say fugitive former cop Christopher Dorner died of a single gunshot wound to the head as authorities were pumping tear gas into a mountain cabin during a deadly gun battle with sheriff's deputies.
San Bernardino County sheriff's Capt. Sheriff John McMahon told reporters Friday that it appears the wound was self-inflicted.
Deputies said they heard one final gunshot from the cabin as it was going up in flames during Tuesday's gunbattle.
Before he died, Dorner killed one sheriff's deputy and wounded another during a fierce shootout.
Authorities initially were unsure whether Dorner killed himself, had been struck by a deputy's bullet or had died in a fire that engulfed the cabin during the shootout.
Officials also believe Dorner spent most of his time hidden in a condominium close to the command post set up to find him. He's believed to have entered the condo through an unlocked door sometime on Feb. 7. Dorner hid inside and never answered the door when deputies came knocking.
San Bernardino County Sheriff John McMahon says Dorner remained there until the condo's owners came to clean it. When the owners arrived, he tied them up and fled in their car. That led to a chase, a shootout that killed a sheriff's deputy and a last stand in a cabin.

The Corrugated Packaging Alliance has been conducting packaging studies on a commodity-by-commodity basis as part of its strategy following a study commissioned by the alliance in mid-2003.
That study, conducted by Willard Bishop Consulting Ltd., Barrington, Ill., found that, while retailers are predicting an increase in the use of corrugated packaging, they are not planning to abandon RPCs altogether.
Instead, the study found that retailers will use a mix of corrugated and plastic to ship their products, depending on which container best suits the commodity.

Union Station at Minute Maid Park
Houston, TX, 77002, United States
As a nod to Houston's long history with the railroad, the Houston Astros new MLB stadium was built on the site occupied by the city's historic Union Station. Outside Minute Maid Park's left-field wall sits a full-size vintage locomotive running along 800 feet of track. Inside, the Union Station Lobby serves as the grand entranceway to the park. Originally constructed in 1911, the lobby has since been restored and is now home to The Shed, the Official Astros Team Store, and a café.
