Personal Finance Advice That Is Easy To Understand
Many people are having a grip on their finances in today's hard times. Even though you may not ever be able to become excessively wealthy, you can always make decisions that will allow you to be more comfortable. The information presented below is designed to help you get started with this important life skill.
Do not invest any money on anything that promises to make money overnight. This is a trap that Internet marketers often fall into. Learn as much as you can, earning it through hard work and patience.
Restaurants in busy tourist areas tend to be the highest priced, so look into where the locals go out to eat. You can find better tasting food that is cheaper and tastes better.
Avoid large fees that some brokers charge. Brokers that invest your money long term tend to charge money for the service. These fees will take away from the money that you earn because they are paid before you get your total profit. Avoid brokers who charge large commissions and steer clear of high-cost management funds.
Try to avoid debt whenever possible to have better personal finances can benefit. Some debt is normal, like student loans and mortgages, but credit card debt should be avoided like the plague. You won't have to dedicate as much of your funds to paying interest and possible fees if you borrow less.
Patience can save you a lot of money when it comes to managing your money. It is very common for many people to go out and purchase the latest electronics on offer. If you can be patient and wait just a little while, those prices will go down by up to 50. This will save you money in your wallet to spend on other purchases.
If you cannot pay a debt and have collection agencies contacting you, you should know that there is a statute of limitations for collecting on debts. Ask a financial expert to find out when your debt expires and do not make a payment to a collection agencies that attempt to collect an old debt.
So to summarize, while you might not become the richest person on the street, life does not have to be a daily financial stress either. All you need to do is put your personal finances back into order. Consider using a service like ElectricCompaniesTexas.com to help save you money. It is quite possible for a person to live free of financial worries, no matter how modest the resources available to them.
Satellite Television – A Vision For The Future
Satellite television will continue to grow and prosper as the 21st century rolls along. As customers become more and more demanding about receiving mobile content, satellite providers will be there to gather some of that business. Here is a look at the future of satellite television.
Internet Content
As TV and the Internet slowly become more entwined, viewers will want content providers who can provide both services. Satellite is poised to profit from this demand. Many subscribers already get both their television Read the rest of this entry »
How Satellite Television Got Its Start
Satellite transmission began with the launching of the first Telstar satellite in 1962. Over 100 million people huddled around televisions on both sides of the Atlantic on July 23 to watch a live telecast that combined video from studios across the U.S. and Europe. The first image, a split screen of the Statue of Liberty and the Eiffel Tower changed TV forever.
Broadcast time on the Telstar was limited by the shifting orbit of the satellite, but technology developed that allowed synchronous orbits Read the rest of this entry »
What The Future Holds For Satellite Television
If you have had satellite service for a few years, you have probably noticed just how much it has changed over the years. Not too long ago, people relied on enormous satellite dishes in order to receive satellite television service, but this isn't the case now, where you can easily find small and sleek satellites that easily mount to the side of your home or to a pole. You have probably also noticed a major increase in satellite channels, a change in features and a clearer and better picture and reception, and you might be wondering what the future holds Read the rest of this entry »
Why You're Going to Love Your Satellite
So someone was nice enough to give you direct tv as a gift this holiday season and you're not sure you need it. Think again! If you're new to satellite TV let us enlighten you about some of the features you're going to love. Once you go satellite you can't go back, or something like that
DVR Functions: If you've never DVR'd a show to watch it later you're missing out – it's the best way to watch TV, hands down. Never miss another episode again and hey, it's raining? Why not have a marathon of your favorite shows? There's something to be said for power over your own technology.
More Channels: If you thought having a WHOLE channel for food was excessive wait until you've got FIVE. How about soccer? Kids' programming? Do It Yourself? There are so many channels on satellite you'll spend weeks just learning your favorites.
HD Picture: What better time than now to watch your favorite Bowl games in High Definition? They're going to be better than you can imagine so start learning which games are on which HD channels ahead of time
Satellite Television What You Need To Know
How do you know what the best choice is for television? Well, you could go the trial and error route which can take up a lot of your time and money. Or, you could educate yourself on the benefits of satellite television.
There are many benefits, but to list a few:
One of satellite's greatest benefits does not even apply to everyone. With satellite it does not matter where you live. As long as you have an unobstructed view of ( Read the rest of this entry »
Satellite Television Appeals To Broad Market
Watching TV is a popular pastime for most American households. Exciting sporting events, interesting reality shows, and educational cartoons provide hours of entertainment. However, TV entertainment also comes with a price tag and monthly bill. Satellite TV has become a popular and cost-effective option for many consumers. Let-s take a look at some of the advantages of satellite TV.
Satellite TV offers more channel options than cable TV. If you enjoy sports, you can add sports packages to your channel lineup. Satellite Read the rest of this entry »
Satellite Television Offers An Array Of Channels
If there was one thing that satellite television can make a undisputed claim about, it would be the fact that it offers a significant array of channels. Array can be defined as several hundreds of channels, many of which you would not gain access to if you were limited to your local cable television providers. For those that want a wide diversity among their channel selections, it would be very tough to top what the satellite providers have to offer.I found some more information here.
Such a benefit has been the hallmark of the satellite television industry since its inception. In the 1980-s, the cruder Read the rest of this entry »

One of the greatest additions to my life has been the T-Vo system or DVR from the satellite companies.

Revenues from fixed income real estate totaled $3.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2012, compared to revenues of $1.4 million for the first quarter of 2011 and $3.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2011.
Net income for the first quarter ended March 31, 2012 was $904,000 or $0.05 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net income of $1.3 million or $0.08 per basic and diluted share for the first quarter of 2011 and to a net loss of $213,000 or $0.01 per basic and diluted for the fourth quarter of 2011.
The net income for the first quarter of 2011, includes gain on bargain purchase of $4.2 million related to the acquisition of Centre des Technologies Nouvelles (CTN) office building complex in Geneva, Switzerland on March 2, 2011
Weighted average shares outstanding used in the calculation for the periods were approximately 19.1 million basic and diluted shares, 16.6 million basic and diluted shares and 19.1 million basic and diluted shares respectively. As of March 31, 2012, we had cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and other financial investments, net, of $25.8 million, and shareholders' equity of $64.6 million, compared with $23.1 million, and $61.3 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2011.

Our income have increased significantly compared to Q1 2011 and have remained stable compared to the previous quarter. We kept our operating expenses at the same level as in the previous quarter and managed to generate operating income compared with an operating loss on Q1 2011. Due to the fluctuation of the Swiss France against the USD, we have recorded financial income this quarter, compared to financial expenses in the previous quarter as well as in Q1 2011. Depending on the fluctuation of the Swiss Franc against the USD, our financial income, net may continue to fluctuate in the quarters to come."

Jos Buttler fell just one run short of his fifth half-century for England against India in the fifth One-Day International (ODI) at Headingley. Buttler's 49 came off just 40 deliveries. Buttler was unfortunately run out by MS Dhoni, after having an LBW appeal against him turned down. He seemed to lose the ball as he set off for a run only for Dhoni to calmly whip off the bails.
Earlier, India won the toss and elected to field first, having won the series after their resounding nine-wicket win in the previous ODI. Dhawal Kulkarni got to play just one game before being dropped in favour of Umesh Yadav, while Ben Stokes and James Tredwell came in to replace Gary Ballance and Harry Gurney.

Cox Quits as TTY Maintainer
A dispute between Alan Cox and Linus Torvalds on the Linux kernel mailing list has led to Cox standing down as TTY subsystem maintainer.
The argument was triggered by a patch from Cox for the TTY subsystem. The patch caused a regressions problem which led to a kdesu malfunction.
Cox denied his patch was the problem, blaming other components in the subsystem. Following a rebuke from Rafael Wysocki that user space should not be broken, even if it was "buggy" Cox countered quite casually, "I don't know where you got that idea from. Avoiding breaking user space unnecessarily is good but if its buggy you often can't do anything about it."
This in turn brought an even sharper retort from Linus Torvalds, who asked Cox what he (Cox) was thinking breaking user space on purpose and it was definitely Cox's patch that caused the problem. Apparently insulted by the remarks, Cox announced his resignation, saying "If you think the problem is easy to fix you fix it."

Sure the dialog got a little sharp, but it was resolved much more amicably than it is portrayed in this article.

text: I have been having a terrible time with clothing lately. My size 18's are so big but size 16's just don't fit right. So I was looking around in stores today and I was in the misses section and I was getting very discouraged with the clothes nothing fit right and most of it wasn't to my taste....So I ventured over to the the juniors section to admire the clothes I can't fit into yet ,everything is cuter in this section IMO. Then I noticed all the clothes went up to size 17, I decided to try just to see if anything fit, well not only did everything fit but it all fit so well. The shirts weren't too long, the jeans hugged my body properly. It was truly awesome! I feel like I can finally wear the clothes I want. I am never going back to plus sizes again. NEVER!

3 up, 3 down: White Sox 6, Angels 1
May, 17, 2012
Mark Saxon | ESPNLosAngeles.com
ANAHEIM -- The Angels seemed dazed by the mid-afternoon sun, losing three fly balls in the glare, and C.J. Wilson was wild in a 6-1 loss to the Chicago White Sox Thursday at Angel Stadium.
The Good:
A Force. Mark Trumbo isn't sneaking up on anyone any more. He hit 29 home runs last year, so there are plenty of pitchers who know the damage he can do. He has never been as hot as he is right now. He's batting .460 with seven doubles and three home runs in his last 13 games. At times, he's hitting balls so hard that the fielder catches the carom quickly enough to hold him to a single.
Is he back? Albert Pujols had his first back-to-back games with a home run, but it was where the balls traveled -- to center field -- that has the Angels sensing his long cold streak might be over. Pujols has 13 RBIs in his last 10 games and his swing finally looks healthy again. He did have one hard ground ball to the left side, but he's keeping his weight back longer and looks dangerous again.
Thievery. On a day when the Angels' inability to catch fly balls may have cost them a game, Vernon Wells partially redeemed the defense by robbing Gordon Beckham of a home run in the eighth inning. Wells timed it well, put his right cleats on the fence and climbed it to keep the ball in the park and send Beckham back to the dugout with his hands on his helmet.
The Bad:
Sun guard. Imagine if this team had played back when night games were a rarity. Games might have lasted until it got dark. Mike Trout and Howie Kendrick (twice) lost balls in the sun. Two of them led to a pair of unearned runs that chased Wilson from the game in the fourth inning. Maybe the Angels should play a few more day games to get their players accustomed to the conditions.
Command. The attribute that sets Wilson apart from Jered Weaver and Dan Haren is that he occasionally loses touch with the strike zone. Wilson had generally kept that tendency in check this season, but Thursday it exploded all over him. Wilson walked six batters and hit Alex Rios with a pitch, pretty much guaranteeing it would be a poor outing. It could have been worse, but he got some clutch outs in each of the first three innings.
Starving Albert. As Pujols warms up, it's going to be essential that the top-of-the-order hitters give him opportunities to carry the team for the first time. Trout and Maicer Izturis never got on base, going 0-for-8. So, each time Pujols batted, the bases were empty. If you're going to suffer through Pujols' dry spells, you may as well maximize his hot streaks.

CTRL+F5 Cache release
Hi again.
Looking for the best way to solve the CTRL+F5 issue for old visitors when ever i change the website.
I've found some solutions on the web like this one
PHP Code:<?php
header("Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate"); // HTTP/1.1
header("Expires: Sat, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT"); // Date in the past
Also where i should include the code so it work properly?
Or is it better to use .htaccess to force cache release?Last edited by Injen; 02-02-2012 at 11:41 PM.

The Motherboard Continued
Moving to the top half of the board, we have our four DDR3 RAM slots which via overclocking can support speeds of up to 2133MHz DDR and 32GB of total memory in Dual Channel mode. Just below our RAM slots you can see we've got a red USB 3.0 header.
The other main item up in this corner is of course our main 24-Pin ATX Power Connector. Next to that we've got a fan header, while moving over to the right hand side we can see another three fan headers running up the board. The most interesting part around this area, though, would be our little red "GO Button". Pressing this before POST will enable MemOK! Or pressing it quickly will load the preset profile for temporary overclocking within Windows.
Continuing around this section, we also have the ROG Probelt feature. Using a multi-meter, you're able to test the voltage with true accuracy on a number of different areas. Located all in one place you're able to quickly and easily find the voltage you need. Most people will probably find themselves not using this feature, but it's of course on offer for people who really want to do some high level overclocking.
Moving to our CPU area, you can see the black AM3+ socket which will offer support for the Bulldozer lines of CPUs when available. You can see power to the board can be done via an 8-Pin connector or older 4-Pin and you can also see the new mounting system that is slightly redesigned. We can see a really nice heatsink setup that is designed to keep some of our warmer components cooled, including the 990FX chip itself just above the first PCI-E 16x slot.
Finishing up with the I/O side of things, you can see we've got a pretty strong lineup of connectors. We've got a single PS/2 Keyboard / Mouse Combo Port, four USB 3.0 ports via ASMedia controller, eight USB 2.0 ports with one reserved for ROG connect (White) via the AMD SB950 chipset, optical and analogue audio ports via the Supreme X-Fi 2 Codec, eSATA via the ASMedia controller, Intel Gigabit networking and a clear CMOS switch for when you overclock just a little too much.

Quentin Tarantino's 'Django Unchained' is entertaining, but the same old schtick
'Django' shows Tarantino has perfected his game, but will the director ever move beyond his usual fare?
Andrew Cooper, SMPSP/The Weinstein Company/AP
Where would Quentin Tarantino be without pulp? All of his movies, not just "Pulp Fiction" and "Kill Bill" and the rest, but also the ones he wrote but did not direct, like "Natural Born Killers" and "True Romance," mainline blood and guts and grunge. A better question might be: Where would Tarantino be without violence? But it's violence of a special sort: shockingly explicit and yet not to be taken altogether seriously (even though some of us do).
Set in the pre-Civil War South, his new film, "Django Unchained," is like a spaghetti-western burlesque of "Mandingo." A bounty hunter from Germany named Dr. King Schultz (Christoph Waltz), posing as a dentist with a giant bobbing tooth hooked to the top of his carriage, comes upon a pack of rednecks guarding a chain gang and offers to buy one of their slaves, the strapping Django (Jamie Foxx).
Since this is a Tarantino movie, they will violently refuse and violently be put down for their troubles. The tone is set: Absurdity (that giant tooth) plus bloodshed (not ketchup) plus graveyard humor (Waltz has all the best lines, and he knows it). It develops that Django, on a mission to recover Hildi (Kerry Washington), the wife from whom he was torn apart, becomes Schultz's partner. Among other things, this means he gets to obliterate a lot of white racists as the two of them carve their way to the plantation, Candyland, where Hildi is being held. It's a love story crossed with a buddy movie.

With London being the epicenter of the New Aesthetic, it is no surprise that the third issue of SID Magazine features this poetic digital decomposition editorial.
The new publication describes itself as being "free from downmarket advertisers, focusing entirely on portraying strong, youthful and sophisticated aesthetics." A noble intent, as advertisers are often the source of profit for magazines. With such an interesting approach to menswear, this stimulating piece this editorial —titled 'Torso'— emulates a mix of modernistic internet art with sleek menswear.
The spread modernizes the motif of an ancient Greek sculpture by casting an adonis-like model that surely conforms to the ancient standard of human form. The impeccably tailored pieces are given a new dimension as photographer Florian Neuville takes glitch-decomposition imagery to new levels. This fashion spread whets my appetite for future SID Magazine editorials.

Planning our hall bathroom which has a 60x30 three wall alcove tub/shower. Current plans are for an air tub (which will require a wood skirt w/ access panel) and for a glass shield (hubby insists on it). Would love some opinions on what type of showerhead setup we would work best in our alcove tub/shower bath and give us the least water outside the tub issues: Also what type of showerhead? Mulit setting, rain showerhead? Ruled out option 1 since we want a handheld to clean the shower. Ruled out option 3 since I think the shower hose would have to be crazy long to reach a user in the tub and for cleaning if the starting point is at the fixed showerhead inlet. Was leaning toward option 6 (handshower on a bar), but now I am concerned with this setup for a couple of reasons. Also would a rain showerhead be better for directing the water directly into the tub? Should we consider this with a handheld (wall or bar mount)? Is a rain showerhead in a tub make sense or is it just silly? FYI - The bathroom is a hall/guest bathroom in a 4 bedroom 2.5 bath family home. We are in our early 40's and plan on staying in the house for many more years. We don't have any kids (without getting personal there is a very small possibility we may have a child but more likely not). This is the only tub in the home (master too small for tub). Bathroom is currently used by guests (friends and family) and as a second bathroom by us on occasion (toilet and vanity primarily...don't use tub as it is a shallow steel tub). |

Why do you want the shower outlet low? Use a handheld on a bar for the shower. You slide it where you want it and it's just like a fixed head. Then the next person puts it where they want it. You remove it from the holder to clean the tub. You need a tub filler that diverts to the shower. Are you thinking that you'll fill the tub with the showerhead? If so, you'd be waiting all day for the tub to fill. |
firsthome, I have a similar situation (aside from the air tub, access panel, glass shield...not sure what all that means). I have the same size alcove tub/shower that's in a hall/guest bath and is the only tub in the house. It's only used when I infrequently have overnight guests or if I want to take a bath (seldom). I am planning to have a handheld only, as enough folks on GW say that will be fine. Originally I considered the bar, but now am thinking I would probably be fine with the fixed wall attachment. My situation doesn't have people of varying sizes using the shower frequently. I might change my mind but since everything's adding up, this is one area where I could spend less. |

Have you actually found an air tub with an integral tile flange? All that I've seen are drop in only and not suited to be used as a tub shower. And have you actually used an air tub before? It's NOT a jetted tub experience. Find someone that has one and try it out before you commit to this plan. It's a lot of money to spend on something that won't get used. |
Catbuilder - the outlet high on the wall works fine if you are only using the handheld during showering or for cleaning but not if you want to use it while laying in he tub. If you have a normal 59" hose and the starting point is way up high on the wall and you are sitting in a 60" tub with your head at the other end and want to wash with the handheld it won't reach. You would need a much longer hose and I don't want a super low hose (like 80") dangling down all the time. Hollysprings - I actually have a Jason air tub with integrated flange that I purchased for a steal on Craigslist. No, I have never used an air tub. I would love to find a showroom near me where I could test one out. |
- Posted by catbuilder (My Page) on Mon, Mar 31, 14 at 21:57
So, you use a slide bar. The outlet goes near the bottom of the bar, not the top. You can put it at the top if you want, but for your purposes the bottom would work much better. You could put a hook holder for it at the other end of the tub if you like, so you can park it there while taking a bath. |
Thanks catbuilder. Like I mentioned, my concern with that set-up is you could never go back to just a normal fixed showerhead setup, but I guess once I drill all these holes that ins't up for discussion anyway :-) Any cons to just going with the handheld on a bar as the primary showerhead? |
- Posted by catbuilder (My Page) on Wed, Apr 2, 14 at 14:49
I am advocating that you DO go with the handheld as the only showerhead. It's what I have had for the last 20 years, and frankly I don't see the point in spending money for a duplicate showerhead, unless it's in a totally different location (ceiling, different wall). |
Thanks catbuilder. You confirmed my initial gut feeling but then I started second guessing and over-thinking...bad habit of mine. So do you have a slide bar or just a fixed wall hook setup? Do you also have a separate hook on the otherside near the tub for bathing. That is something I never thought of but is a great idea. |

Traxxas 16 tooth 32 pitch pinion gear is made of machined steel. Designed for a 3mm shaft.
INCLUDES: One 16 tooth Pinion Gear
One 3 x 4mm Set Screw
COMMENTS: This gear is only one of two which are used on the E-Maxx dual motor set-up.
Assembly onto an E-Maxx truck.
1.5mm hex wrench to tighten set screw.
I am running 2S LiPo batteries and wanted a bit more speed. I believe this is great compromise over the 19T, which I feared would stress the system out.
It's extremely easy to strip the set screw. The gear itself is durable when used with a nylon spur gear.

Arkansas AG Rejects Wording Of Medicaid Referendum
Attorney General Dustin McDaniel has rejected the wording of a proposal to ask voters to approve a new law that would use federal Medicaid dollars to purchase private insurance for thousands of low-income residents.
McDaniel's office on Tuesday rejected the wording of a proposed referendum on the "private option" that lawmakers approved this year as an alternative to expanding Medicaid's enrollment. The wording of the referendum must be certified by McDaniel's office before supporters can begin gathering signatures to place it on next year's ballot.
McDaniel said the measure submitted failed to summarize the substance of the legislation the group wished to refer to voters.
The measure was submitted by Glenn Gallas of Hot Springs, who formed a group called Arkansans Against Big Government that opposed the private option law.

At Large: The windy 10-year war
If you have been marveling at the other marathon, that is, the marathon, unanesthetized colonoscopy now being performed on the Stop & Shop project, history suggests that this is nothing new. When we fight, especially when we consider change, we insular types don't flag, we don't cave, we hold grudges, we fight on. Winston Churchill — "Never give in" — would be proud. The fight over the Nantucket Sound Islands Trust legislation went on for years, followed by the fight over the Martha's Vineyard Commission legislation, the fight over the creation of the Land Bank, the battle over the golf courses, the vicious and wearing conflict over the Ramsey-Counter land claim, and on and on, beyond remembering.
But, it may be that the fight over Cape Wind, still muttering on in the background, will one day be crowned the mother of all political wars. Cape Wind, more than a decade in the application-permitting-financing journey, has not erected a single turbine, not created a single volt of electrical power, and it's better than even money that it never will.
If you are one of those who favor a clean, plentiful, growing, cheap supply of energy to support the growth of the American economy — and, naturally enough, its many subdivisions, including this tiny, remote (but not remote enough) outpost we call home — I urge you not to despair.
The state of Massachusetts, in its nutty devotion to wind-powered, ocean-based generating plants deployed, in cooperation with the federal government, in a strangling circle around the Vineyard, does not feel your pain. Indeed, the state's aim is not only to conspire over the Cape Wind project, but to elbow aside valid economic and environmental concerns expressed by Islanders, to allow, no matter what local opinions may hold, wind factories to the east, west and north of us. It's a plan whose benefits are immeasurably small and diminishing compared with new, less expensive land based technologies — especially solar, whose installation costs have plunged in the last few years. But, it's a plan whose time, if it ever came, has now gone.
Among the drawbacks, and the Cape Wind deal with National Grid draws this out plainly, are the state's policy determinations to allow the expansion of wind generation, no matter what the cost to residential and commercial customers and no matter whether the local targets agree to the intrusion. Wind-driven sea-based power will be significantly more expensive than energy produced by any other source, but the state endorses it, subsidizes it, and would protect its higher costs by attempting to block energy suppliers from buying less expensive power — even power from renewables — created out of state. Absent the politically forced premium to be paid for Cape Wind electricity, the development of that wind turbine factory could not be funded. Wind power needs such well-intentioned but foolishly conceived support, otherwise developers of wind-driven electricity would not find financing or a market. At this point, wind enthusiasts point to billions in subsidies extended to other energy producers, notably oil. But, although oil doesn't create much electricity in the U.S., it is a vital, current transportation fuel, and for good reason. Oil produces powerful energy, and does it relatively cheaply. It's been worth subsidizing.
The argument here is that the energy future of our economy will be built on electricity and transportation fuels. Oil, whether produced here or abroad, does not figure significantly in electricity generation now and will certainly figure only marginally in the equation as we move forward. But it predominates as a motor fuel and a raw material in too many manufacturing processes to count, and it will continue to do so until replacement technologies can be concocted or discovered that furnish the same dense, cheap power and hugely variable utility.
The keys to plentiful, growing, and inexpensive sources of electrical power are conservation (especially in homes and vehicles), natural gas, and nuclear power. Something better may come along, but it won't be wind. And, political manipulation will not make ocean-based wind power more desirable, more economical to build, or more reasonably priced for consumers.
As is apparent after a decade of debate over Cape Wind, the industrialization of 25 square miles of Nantucket Sound and of the empty ocean southwest and northwest of the Vineyard will diminish valuable, wild, clean seascapes, in exchange for modest, intermittent supplies of high-priced electricity that will in the end depend on traditionally fueled, efficient, powerful, economically scalable electricity generators capable of reliably producing power when we need it. And, doing it less expensively on a much less profligate footprint.
The Cape Wind deal to sell the electric power that the planned Nantucket Sound wind farm would one day produce will cost electricity end-users billions more than conventionally produced power. That's not because wind-driven electricity is better electricity, or more dependable, or more easily scaled up to meet growing demand, or less demanding of the natural environment — consider the marine acreage to be consumed — but it's because the political climate insists on it, no matter the costs.
For someone with a native fondness for New Bedford, the Whaling City, I'm happy to report that the only valuable spinoff from the failing Cape Wind project is the rehabilitation of a portion of the New Bedford waterfront.
Gov. Deval Patrick selected a portion of New Bedford's waterfront that will be resurrected to serve Cape Wind's construction and maintenance needs as the staging area for its turbine factory at Horseshoe Shoals. It's about $35 million in investments, now underway in the form of dredging and dock building. We're likely never to feel a single jolt from electricity produced by Cape Wind, but at least a community that needs investment and jobs is getting a lift from the project, now in hospice care.
Not a word about how the "opposition" to Cape Wind has come from deep-pocketed business interests whose income and power are threatened by "green" energy projects? "SOS" is a chimera. The day funding their astroturf project is pulled will be the day that resistance to this project disapears.
Did you even read this excellent article? The author let the air out of the tires on the lack of Cape Wind merit, but you feel the need to mention the opposition as being on the Koch dole? Just what is "green" about this destructive fantasy called Cape Wind, and explain why the state is willing to extort its citizens.
I most certainly did. That is why the comment on what the article omits. The need to mention the fact that SOS is manufactured "astroturf" opposition is appropriate. Particularly so in that your comment parrots their "talking points". SOS/Kochs have spent tens of millions of dollars getting you to think this way.
He is a fisherman, genius, he doesn't have a Koch problem! Why do you support furthering crimes against nature in the name of saving it? Are you against the billions of dollars that green lobbyists have been spending on politicians to promote these utopian scams? You do know that CO2 emissions have decreased to 1990's levels, almost entirely because of increased use of natural gas (not due to wind scams)?
He failed to answer the real question, phil, Just what is "green" about this destructive fantasy called Cape Wind, and explain why the state is willing to extort its citizens.
Too bad we aren't on the Koch payroll $$$ at least then we might be getting paid for calling BS what it is, BS.
heh, Some get paid Pew oil bucks t create BS! I'd have to say Tommy's peeps would be them! lol
Thank you, Doug.
The Patrick Administration has restructured the MA energy market seven times. The beneficiaries are Public Officials dabbling in renewable energy that requires public funding. Politics drives the debate because this is not about public interest served by reliable energy sources that are commercially reasonable. This is about crony capitalism and corporate welfare…no matter what it costs consumers, air travelers, mariners, commercial or recreational users of Nantucket Sound.
So true, look at Ian Bowles. He helped push through the Cadillac Deval green agenda, then hopped over to the private sector to cash in on green businesses. Laughing all the way to the bank, while sticking the working stiffs with long term heavily inflated energy costs.
Indeed. Look at Ian Bowles, former MA Executive Energy Secretary and Advisor to Flo-Design wind turbine that got a $3 million grant from Clean Energy Center (MACEC). Bowles is Founding Chairman of the MACEC that siphons ratepayer dollars to fund renewable schemes favored by MA Public Officials. Flo-Design also received $8.3 in stimulus.
Ian framed the first in the U.S. Zoning map "Ocean Management Plan" that divests U.S. citizens of our precious ocean resource. Ian is the usher for the Green Communities Act (GCA) that represents a $4 billion dollar rate increase according to AG Coakley. The GCA was sponsored by convicted and sentenced Speaker DiMasi whose buddy, Jay Cashman, provides services to wind developers. Ian also served as Advisor to Harvest Power, and launched Rhumb Line Energy with three former staffers from the MA Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs, to service wind developers. Ian is also Co-founder and Managing Director of WindSail Capital Group, a Boston-based investment firm providing capital to emerging clean energy companies.
He who writes the green rules wins in MA. That would include former Ex. SEC MA EOEEA Bowles. His former undersecretary was exec. VP with stock options at EnerNOC (energy efficiency) that garnered 20% of the state's ARRA stimulus funding for a $10 million contract. Giudice's team instituted the three-year energy efficiency plans for Massachusetts' investor-owned utilities.
What has the public to show for our $10 million to EnerNOC?
Forbes [May 14,2012]: "Who's a Fat Cat", "Who is the most over paid?"
"The most overpaid executives are at Comverge and EnerNOC,
both in absolute millions of dollars, and as a percentage of market

I stopped doing "Orchid Table" photos a couple of years ago when I started transferring a lot of my best plants out of pots. However, I still have a lot that are in them, despite my dislike and quite a few are in flower right now. Actually I have 26 plants in flower, about half those here. I hope you don't mind this little boast. It's taken me 20+ years to achieve this level of success! |

I like this brush for blending out color (crease) and for applying a light wash of color on the lid. The bristles are super soft and I've experienced little to no fall-out. Very happy w/ this brush. It's one of the first ones I've purchased from them.

This is an excellent makeup brush. I've been looking for this sort of very pointed blender brush for a while and had my heart set on one from Laura Mercier or the limited edition one from Mac very similar to a 244 except shaped like this one. I understand that Louise Young also makes one in this shape. Anyhow, I am extremely satisfied with this purchase. I had read the reviews on the site and many reviewers stated that they received a brush that was not near as pointed as the one in the picture. I'm not sure about that but the one I got is very pointed just like the photograph but perhaps not as thick. This brush is perfect for depositing color right into the socket line, creating a blended line in the crease. The shape of it allows the tip to fit right into the crease. You only have to move the brush back and forth since the brush just finds and stays in the socket. It is great if you want a bit more definition the the crease or for creating a slightly less dramatic cut crease look. The hair is soft and full and none has shed since I washed it twice now. The only thing about this brush is the look of it around the ferrel area, which is not pressed in as pristinely as a Mac brush is. Other than that, functionality wise, it is excellent and not just because of its low cost.

I love this brush. It's my HG blending brush.
It's very soft and round and I love to apply eye shadow on my crease with it. I love how softly it applies even the darker colors. I've had problems of applying the darker crease colors with other blending brushes or crease brushes, because they're usually much more dense and they seem to add too much color at once and it tends to get streaky. Darker matte shades are really difficult to work with and this blending brush does it very well.
It feels like silky soft on my eye lids, it doesn't shed and it's cheap.
Many people probably think it's too flimsy, but I don't think so. It's just perfectly soft.
It's round, not flat like some other blending brushes, so it also makes working with it very easy.
I'll be buying several more of these brushes, for sure.

In today's high tech world of smart phones and GPS systems, many young children have probably never seen a printed, paper map. Certainly, the GPS system is a wonderful, almost miraculous technology. But because it is man-made, it can let us down, maybe even mislead us. That's why so many of us may still take a reliable, old-fashioned paper map on our journeys. But that, too, is man-made and can fail us.
The scripture readings this week point us to a guide that we can always rely on and will never be outdated, will never let us down. That guide is Jesus. As God promised, he is our sure guide who will always lead us to the fullness of life. It is not always easy following the example of Jesus, but he does not guide us anyplace that he has not gone first. Listen to his voice. He guides the way to the kingdom of God.

Sometimes it's easy to feel like we're alone when we face a challenge.
Feeling as though no one understands or cares can make us want to give up on ourselves if we feel that no one is in our corner.
This past July, high school students with disabilities from across the state realized just the opposite as they participated in the 15th Florida Youth Leadership Forum in Tallahassee. Over the course of four days, delegates learned about leadership, social responsibility, business etiquette, college and university resources, STEM careers, and many other topics.
Madeline Nunez said that she will continue to build her leadership skills by encouraging others in her school to speak out against bullying. She aspires to be a registered nurse upon graduating from college.
"One thing I learned about myself at YLF is that I'm capable of way more than what I expected," she said. "Just because we may have to work a little harder, we cannot be quitters."
"Just because I have a learning disability doesn't mean I have to set myself at a lower level to please popular opinion," delegate Scott Schoeneman added.
YLF alums Shavaughn Barnes, Valerie Baker, and Mervin Hernandez participated in a panel discussion during the annual Mentors' Luncheon, sharing their personal YLF experience with an audience of nearly 200. Valerie is a junior at Florida Gulf Coast University pursuing a degree in marketing. She has served as a group facilitator for several years.
"When I came to YLF six years ago, it was my first time being away from my parents," Valerie said. "And they were pretty nervous. However, when I finally made it to Tallahassee, I immediately felt welcome and all of my fears went away and I've been coming back ever since."
"Before coming to YLF, I wasn't sure I would be able to go to college and have a true college experience; live on campus and do what my friends were doing," she added. "But after coming here and learning about all the resources available to me, I learned that I could go to college and be away from my parents and live independently."
Shavaughn first came to YLF nine years ago. She, like Valerie, is a long-time group facilitator. A graduate of Florida State College with a degree in education, Shavaughn is now a teacher in the Jacksonville area.
"For me, YLF was the first time I had ever seen so many people with disabilities in one setting," Shavaughn said. "I went back to my school and stared a club because of YLF. One of the most memorable experiences I've had as a YLF mentor is serving as a small group facilitator. That one experience is what made me want to be a teacher, which I am today."
Mervin has been a part of YLF for 10 years. A graduate of the University of Central Florida with a degree in accounting, Mervin has held several accounting and professional staffing positions in New York. He continues to come back and serve as an adult volunteer because of the impact the program had on him when he was a delegate.
"One of the things I've enjoyed about coming back each year is seeing the students make the progression from delegates to staff members; coming back with stories of how they've left home and gone away to college; that's very, very powerful."
Able Trust Board Chairman Richard Cole addresses delegates and volunteers on the importance of leadership. A native of Pennsylvania, Cole was a successful lawyer who advocated for people with disabilities. A motorcycle accident many years ago resulted in the amputation of his right leg. Cole shared his personal story of perseverance and determination and encouraged the audience to never give up the pursuit of their goals, and never to stop leading by example.
"After two months in the hospital, and the long rehab afterward, I had a long time to think about my future; what my new life would be like," Cole said. "In that time I noticed people looked at me differently, simply because my right leg was missing. People made snap decisions about my abilities. And for the first time in my life I understood what many of my clients with disabilities dealt with on a daily basis. At first I was angry. But in time that anger changed into determination to do whatever I could to erase the stereotypes against people with disabilities."
"Remember this, we are people with disabilities. We are not disabled."
During the annual Day at the Capitol, YLF delegates visited the House Chambers and learned about the legislative process. Michael Nease facilitated a mock session and debate for delegates.
At the annual Day at the Capitol, YLF delegates learned about civic and social responsibility as well as the legislative process. Delegates then voted on the issue they debated.
The YLF annual Career Fair gives delegates the opportunity to explore fields in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). The Honorable Lori Rowe and Able Trust Board Chair Richard Cole mentor delegates in the field of Law.
During the annual Career Fair, YLF delegates learned about resume writing, how to conduct a job search, and various other skills necessary to secure employment. Afterward, delegates met with career mentors to explore various fields. Kendalyn Staten of Campus USA Credit Union talks to delegates about careers in Banking & Finance.

xhtml doctype and form name attribute in javascript?
Hi, I have been attempting to transition to use of xhtml strict doctype and
my text editor, BBEdit (on Mac) tells me, when I ask it to check syntax,
that the attribute 'name' is not allowed in form object, as in any other
form element that I tried to use it in. This begs the question, how do
I script forms with javascript in the context of this doctype? None of
the javascript texts I have address this issue (O'Reilly Rhino book and
I could figure it out, but it appears to be a complicated process, just
doing getElementById() and sorting it out.
Does anyone have a reference to material that deals with this issue?
Or do I just abandon xhtml strict doctypes?
Thanks for time and attention

further consideration
Well, I dropped xhtml strict doctype and am using transitional,
so the document validates when using name attribute in form tag
and elsewhere.
It's kind of a weird change, but indeed the proper thing to do is stop using names for <form>s and use ids instead.
For people who were used to coding like this:then, yeah, it's ugly. You don't want to have to codeCode:function validate( ) { if ( document.form1.name.value == "" ).... if ( document.form1.address.value == "" ) ... }But that always was a dumb way to code such things.Code:function validate( ) { if ( document.getElementById("form1").name.value == "" ).... if ( document.getElementById("form1").address.value == "" ) ... }
I have always used something like:
so for me it is trivial to switch over toCode:function validate( ) { var form = document.form1; if ( form.name.value == "" ).... if ( form.address.value == "" ) ... }Even more, whenever possible I don't give *EITHER* a name or id to my forms.Code:var form = document.getElementById("form1");
After all, if you code:
And then invoke it viaCode:function validate( form ) ...or maybeCode:<form ... onsubmit="validate(this);">
and so on, there's really no need for either name or id.Code:<select name="whatever" onchange="if ( validate(this.form) ) this.form.submit();" >
Finally, if you only have one <form> on your page, which most of us do, you can always useSo I, for one, don't see that using forms without names is any change at all.Code:var form = document.forms[0];
