Thanks Pishtaco & gigau for your awesome work.
Thanks Pishtaco & gigau for your awesome work.
There seems to be something not very right here...
I got EU3NA 2.1 + TOT 2.0 + MGM 1.72 (with gigau fix).
And then:
Started new game as Poland, and... I CAN'T SEE my cores outside territority of my country and my ally (Lithuania), when political mapmode is on, i.e. nothing on Bohemia & Teutonic Order.
Then restarted as Burgundy... same thing. I clicked twice or so on one of my neighbours, and then ... CTD.
And since I have got almost none of them before installing TOT 2.0...
I COULD care less, but it would take a real effort.
That's odd. You mean the diplomatic map mode, and your problem is with the diagonal stripes not showing? Do the stripes work properly in other situations? Could you post a screenshot and details of your graphics card (including the graphics memory)? The cause of the crash might be listed in one of the log files in the logs directory.Originally Posted by Creature
When I got the crash, I immediately reinstalled EU3. So no logs... (nobody said I'm a patient person).Originally Posted by Pishtaco
On the other hand, MMG 1.72 turned out to be corrupted, even the download was removed; so the problem could be there.
But in order to show you the lack of stripes, I installed TOT 2.0 again (over clean EU3 NA 2.1, not as a mod, but I replaced original files, with a new font & minimap), this time without MMG. Here is a screen:
I choose France, as it is an excelent example. Look closely, and you will see what's wrong (some hints: Aragon, Burgundy, Milan). Diagonal stripes only show, if there is any sort of other diplomatic relation with a given country (and thus some other colour as a 'background' for stripes).
My graphics:
NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GS, 256 MB, latest drivers
I COULD care less, but it would take a real effort.
I was going to report the same issue as well. My specs:Originally Posted by Creature
GeForce 8800, latest drivers.
The stripes thing is a bug in my code, sorry. I had put something to change the neutral colour on the diplomatic map to a more attractive one, and something to do the stripes, and I hadn't thought properly about how they affect each other. I've uploaded a fixed version, 2.0a, and put it in the original post. The only changed files are terrain_2_0.fx and stripes.dds.
I still haven't managed to download gigau's files from filefront. But I think I know what some of the black spots could be. The shape of the coastline depends on provinces.bmp (or whatever it's called) as well as topology.bmp; and provinces.bmp has changed in the MM map (to something closer to topology.bmp).
I'm having second thoughts about the dots. Done right, I think they could add a whiff of authenticity, but they are rather overwhelming at the moment. The file the texture is in is water_blur_20_pixels_tilable.dds, not water.dds.
I've added two files to the download to use with magna mundi. I also made the dots slightly fainter.
Just tried 2.0a out. works like a charm and looks great too and the stripes are back.
Good work Pishtaco
The Hermster conquers all.
Thanks to everyone who tried this. I have fixed some things up, and posted version 2.1 in a new thread: http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/...52#post7782052

Order This, Not That: Wendy's
by Dana Angelo White in Dining Out, Healthy Tips, July 21, 2009
Are all fast-food burger joints created equal, or does Wendy's live up to its claim to be "waaayy better than fast food"? (Sorry, but a bacon cheeseburger still isn't a good choice.)
ORDER: Simple and Fresh
Basic salads, such as the Mandarin Chicken or Chicken Caesar, have between 200 to 300 calories even with their special dressings. Opt out of extra toppings like crispy noodles and garlic croutons to save 70 calories and 2.5 grams of fat. Even better, pass on regular dressings, and go for the light or fat-free options instead.
You don't see a lot of baked potatoes on fast food menus, but they've been a staple at Wendy's for years. With 270 calories (without toppings), a potato and a side salad make for a well-rounded meal. Chili is also a unique offering but stick to the small size. The large cup of chili has only 280 calories but 1240 milligrams of sodium –- that's more than half of the daily recommendation of salt.
If you're in the mood for a sandwich or burger, the Jr. Hamburger is the best option with 230 calories, 8 grams of fat and just under 500 milligrams of sodium. Or make a meal out of the Grilled Chicken Go Wrap, which has 250 calories, 10 grams of fat and 730 milligrams of sodium.
NOT: Everything Burgers, Boneless Wings and Frozen Treats
The Triple Burger with Everything and Cheese tips the scale at 970 calories, 60 grams of fat (including 27 grams of saturated and 3.5 grams of trans fat) and 2,010 milligrams of sodium. The Baconator burger (that name just bothers me) isn't much better with 870 calories and 51 grams of fat. Of course, it's easy to figure out that you shouldn't order a triple cheeseburger. The Chicken Club Sandwich might seem like a light choice, but stay away — it still packs 550 calories and 26 grams of fat.
I've seen a lot of commercials lately for their new boneless wings. Whether you're eying the Bold Buffalo (520 calories), Honey BBQ (580 calories) or Sweet & Spicy Asian (550 calories), none of them are a healthy choice. Each serving has 18 grams of fat and somewhere between 1990 and 2630 milligrams of sodium –- not to mention a laundry list of preservatives, according to the ingredient info.
And what about Wendy's signature Frosty dessert? A small Chocolate Frosty has 320 calories and 8 grams of fat, which is enough for a meal. I remember when there was just one kind of Frosty -– now there are all kinds of choices, many with added cookies and candy that only jack up the calorie and fat totals. You're better off enjoying a small serving of chocolate ice cream from your home freezer.
We have some kudos for Wendy's: They're conscientious about noting potential food allergens and providing a list of ingredients for all their menu items. You can look all that up at their site.

Wendy's also has a Jr. sized Frosty that only has 150 calories, 4 grams of fat and 2.5 grams of saturated fat.
Wow. My family goes to Wendy's a lot during the school year. This was really helpful.
im a manager at wendys and trying to eat healthy,this is a really help ,i always get my small chilli or a ceasar side salad ,and cant forget my baked potatoe.
The caps lock button is located on the left-hand side of your keyboard. Please turn it off. Thank you.
This article IS INCORRECT concerning the salads.
The healthiest salad Wendy's offers is 350 calories minus the almonds and noodles which together is another 200 calories. If you eat the entire salad the total is 550 calories.
A grilled chicken sandwich, plain, and jr frosty is 8 grams of fat and very satisfying! Hot, juicy, cool, and sweet.
maybe I'm in trouble, usually order the bacon cheeseburger jr. for my Mom and I, and sometimes split a value fry. she likes diet coke and I don't though I rarely have soda so sometimes I have a value coke as well.
When I first saw this title Order This, Not That: Wendy's | Healthy Eats – Food Network Healthy Living Blog on google I just whent and bookmark it. Hey very cool site!! Man .. Excellent .. Amazing .. I will bookmark your web site and take the feeds also…I am happy to find numerous useful info here in the post, we need work out more techniques in this regard, thanks for sharing. . . . . .
IN CONGRESS, July 4, 1776.The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America,When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, –That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.–Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only.He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures.He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people.He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the Legislative powers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned to the People at large for their exercise; the State remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within.He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands.He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary powers.He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries.He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power.He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury:For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offencesFor abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring Province, establishing therein an Arbitrary government, and enlarging its Boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these Colonies:For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:For suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us.He has plundered our seas, ravaged our Coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people.He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty & perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.He has constrained our fellow Citizens taken Captive on the high Seas to bear Arms against their Country, to become the executioners of their friends and Brethren, or to fall themselves by their Hands.He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages, whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions.In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A Prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.Nor have We been wanting in attentions to our Brittish brethren. We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which, would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.We, therefore, the Representatives of the united States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States; that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do. And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.
I do consider all of the ideas you've offered to your post. They're really convincing and can certainly work. Still, the posts are too short for novices. May you please lengthen them a bit from subsequent time? Thanks for the post.

The waiver form, when presented at any Wisconsin Dept. of Transportation exam station, will entitle the individual to a Class "M" license provided other licensing requirements are met.

EVANSTON, USA, April 24, 2012-- Rotary International has recognized His Excellency Goodluck Jonathan, president of Nigeria, as a Polio Eradication Champion for his leadership and dedication to a polio-free world.
Presented to Jonathan on April 23rd, by incoming Chairman of The Rotary Foundation, Wilf Wilkinson, the Polio Eradication Champion Award is the highest honor Rotary presents to heads of state, health agency leaders and others who have made significant contributions to the global polio eradication effort.
"On behalf of Rotary's 1.2 million members worldwide, including nearly 6,000 in Nigeria alone, I would like to express the solidarity of Rotary members in standing firmly beside President Jonathan and the Nigerian people in the polio eradication effort. I am honored to recognize the commitment of President Goodluck Jonathan for support of a polio-free Nigeria, and a polio-free world," said Wilkinson.
During Jonathan's term, Nigeria posted a 95 percent decline in polio cases in 2010 as compared with 2009. However, 2011 saw a resurgence of the disease (62 reported cases), emphasizing the need for continued vigilance in the fight against polio.
Jonathan renewed his attention to polio eradication with the launch of Nigeria's Emergency Action Plan – a comprehensive strategy to accelerate progress toward polio eradication at every level. To support the plan, Jonathan announced that he would significantly increase funding for polio eradication activities: US$30 million annually for 2012 and 2013.
In receiving Rotary's Polio Eradication Champion Award, Jonathan joins a roster of distinguished leaders, including India's Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, Chancellor of Germany Angela Merkel, current UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and former Secretary General Kofi Annan, President Asif Ali Zardari of Pakistan, and former Chairperson of the African Union Commission Alpha Oumar Konare.
A highly infectious disease that can cause paralysis and sometimes death, polio still strikes children in parts of Africa and South Asia. As there is no cure, the best protection is prevention. For as little as 60 cents worth of vaccine, a child can be protected for life. Globally, the number of polio cases has been reduced from 350,000 children annually in the mid-1980s to fewer than 700 reported cases all last year, a decline of more than 99 percent. Yet, challenges remain in the three polio-endemic countries of Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Nigeria.
Rotary made polio eradication its top philanthropic goal in 1985. As the volunteer arm of the Global Polio Eradication Initiative -- a public/private partnership including the World Health Organization, US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, UNICEF and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation -- Rotary has contributed more than US$ 1.2 billion to ending polio, including some US$145 million to support polio eradication activities in Nigeria.

This post is a part of the Humanist Community at Harvard's 2012 Blogathon, a 12 hour blogging marathon by Chris Stedman and Chelsea Link to support HCH's end-of-the-year fundraiser. Chelsea and Chris are both publishing one new post per hour, for twelve hours straight, and none of the posts have been written or drafted in advance. For more blogathon posts, click here. If you enjoyed this post or any of the others, please consider consider chipping in to support our work.
Often, when I try to explain the work of the Humanist Community at Harvard (or just Humanism in general), I get the question, "So why don't you just join a Unitarian Universalist church?"
It's actually a great question. UU churches are pretty awesome. They're extremely politically progressive, pluralistic, and social justice-oriented. They have fantastic Sunday school programs, which are of particular interest to me. They've got a lot of infrastructure in place since they've evolved out of more traditional churches – infrastructure that would save us from having to reinvent the wheel and build these kinds of communities from the ground up. And they are full of atheists. There's even a joke about it:
Q: What do you call an atheist with a family?
A: A Unitarian.
And UU churches aren't the only barely-theistic religious communities around. Humanistic Judaism and Reconstructionist Judaism are both thriving communities in which many atheists and Humanists would feel at home.
So if all this is out there, why bother starting over?
The limitations of nontheistic forms of Judaism are obvious: if you are not ethnically and/or culturally Jewish, it's probably not your jam. Those communities are fantastic for people who want to stay in touch with their Jewish roots, but anybody who wasn't raised speaking Hebrew and starting everything at sundown is likely to feel a bit out of place.
As for UU churches – and other extremely liberal religious denominations that welcome atheists – I think these present a subtler but even more important limitation: they don't really take a stand on belief. God isn't really in, but he certainly isn't out, either.
To be clear, I don't think this is necessarily a bad thing in itself. There is something pretty awesome about a bunch of people with different theological/philosophical beliefs coming together regularly to support each other, raise their children together, work for justice, and so on. UU is great for that. It's not necessarily better or worse than Humanism; it's just different.
But I do think there is value to forming that kind of community around not only shared values, but also shared beliefs. Simply put, it matters a great deal whether God does or does not exist. We are looking at a very different world in one case than in the other. Different approaches to purpose, ethics, and meaning are called for in each case. Although the outcome is often very similar – from the outside, living a good life as a theist looks a lot like living a good life as an atheist – the path and the inner experience are different in non-negligible ways.
I want to belong to a community that shares my beliefs and my values. I want to have a place where I can talk openly about my beliefs, fears, hopes, and questions, and where people with similar convictions can hash out these ideas together. I want to mourn my losses with people who will not tell me my loved ones are with God now. I want to celebrate love and commitment with people who agree that life is short and finite. I want to raise my children in an environment where they can tackle big questions early on and grow alongside like-minded peers. I want to work for justice alongside people who see ourselves and each other as our only hope for salvation.
I want a Humanist community.
If you want one too, then please donate and help us build it.

I have honestly always preferred a set of steel Sai's when practicing ninjutsu with dual weapons... But I suppose a set of Kama will work if you prefer them. I just like the weight. The set I own weighs in at 5 lbs for each individual Sai. and even though they are used to target pressure points, I find that a sharp tap on the wrist with something as heavy as those will usually make whoever it is drop whatever they are using and dance around for a few minutes complaining about the numbness. ^_^

So apparently the Kinect is causing developers some trouble, the X1 reserves some of its power for the Kinect, I believe its 10%. This means that they can't access the X1's full power potential and thus causes games to run at lower resolution and or framerate than what the developers intended.
I was one who was actually very excited about the tv and multimedia features that the X1 offered, I wanted my game console to do a lot more than just play games, BUT I also want my games to take full advantage of the X1 hardware. After all it IS a game console. What do you think, would you rather MS ditch the Kinect entirely if it means better resolution and smoother framerate, or are you willing to sacrifice that in order to enjoy the multimedia functions?
And by the way, simply turning off the Kinect doesn't work, its programmed in the X1 to use some of its power for the Kinect no matter if you have it plugged in or not.

It was 7.30 a.m. The Army contingent was ready at Manul hamlet, just 7 km from Mangan, district headquarters of the North Sikkim district in Sikkim. The contingent was to march forward to reach the remotest of villages in the district to rescue the earthquake victims.
Heavy landslides caused by last Sunday's massive earthquake have disconnected those villages. Very few residents of the villages endured the arduous trek to Manul as they had faced devastation and distress back home.
Some of them were workers of the Teesta Urja project and they appeared to be traumatised by the experience. According to them, the situation at the project tunnel could be serious: "We do not know how many workers have been trapped inside."
Kamal and Romu, residents of Rammam village, braved the forest path and climbed up to Manul with their one-year-old baby.
The Army unit started from Manul to reach Rammam. I accompanied the team along the tough hilly terrain to witness the rescue operations in the remotest areas. The team had to go 1,500 ft. downhill from Manul to reach the Teesta river. Then it had to climb up around 1,500 ft. through dense forests after crossing the river.
The team was taking down every detail of the route from the local residents. A helicopter was hovering above – with Army personnel trying their best to rescue people from the villages of Chungthang, Shipgyre and Saffo. Given the extent of damage and its remoteness, the village of Rammam, however, remained out of bounds even to the helicopter.
The Army personnel came by a family who were climbing up with great difficulty with as few belongings as they could carry. Suman is a contractor working for the Teesta Urja project. Horrified at seeing death from such a close distance, he was at a loss for words to explain his experience and tightly held his baby boy Shreyan to his chest. Suman's wife Sanju's lips had turned pale with shock and exhaustion due to the steep climb to reach Manul in search of a new life.
A faint smile of joy appeared on baby Shreyan's face after receiving chocolates from the Army personnel – perhaps the first time since the tragedy struck.
The vertical downhill path led to a plateau where a group of people were resting. Amrit Thapa, an injured worker of the Teesta Urja project, was being carried to Manul by sherpas by fastening him on to a plastic chair.
The Army team marched forward to cross the turbulent Teesta. I met Dawa Doma, sarpanch of Rammam village, who was on her way to survey the village.
"Rammam has a population of 200 people whereas Saffu and Shipgyre have bigger populations of 400 people. Nature is cruel sometimes and none can go against her. We are trying hard to support the villagers. Teams of the armed forces and the National Disaster Response Force have reached the village and we hope the situation to improve soon," she said.
North Sikkim is a place where the heaven touches the earth, the ambience creates a mystery, silence can be heard, vision tends to travel beyond the horizon, soul starts meditating unknowingly and the mind gets rejuvenated.
But all these things are absurd now. The fragile Himalayan terrain, which can put our minds at peace, is also capable of stealing the peace through sheer geographical change.

NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) — New Orleans police cited an assistant city attorney after they say he had a marijuana cigarette.
According to police, Jason Cantrell was in Magistrate Court when the joint fell out of his pocket.
The mayor's office says Cantrell was working on a private case at the time -- and not for the city.
According to the NOPD, Cantrell was speaking with an officer at the time while inside Magistrate Court.
Cantrell's wife, Latoya, is a candidate for the New Orleans City Council B seat.

The 11 Levels of Avicii: A Brief Deconstruction of the Dance Music Megastar
Categories: Concert Preview, Lists
Sure, you've heard "Levels" a million times. You can see he resembles a young Leonardo DiCaprio. And you're probably aware that he's setting off on North America's first all-arena EDM tour.
But before Avicii hits the American Airlines Arena on Friday, June 8 (and before be blows your mind with his 3D-mapped, giant-head stage setup), let's take a tour through the 11 levels of Avicii.
11. From Stockholm to Miami
Avicii is about that big-room house, and so is our fair city. In 2011, Avicii dedicated a two-disc mix to the fist-pumping sounds of this capital of sin, titled Strictly Miami. He likes us.
10. That Good Feeling
It was the megahit at Ultra 2012. However, "Levels" wasn't just huge in our town. It's a worldwide anthem. The song, which features a prominent vocal sample from recently deceased soul singer Etta James's "Something's Got a Hold on Me," reached the top 10 in a dozen countries. It climbed to number one in five nations, and topped the Billboard Hot Dance chart.
9. Next-Level Hype
Of course, "Levels" was huge at conception. For nine months before its official release, Avicii regularly dropped it at club gigs and concerts. Meanwhile, a YouTube video bootleg of the track snagged more than 15 milion hits before it even became available for purchase on October 31, 2011. That's next-level hype, bro.

Just*in Time: HIV and DatingBy Justin B. Terry-Smith September 5, 2012 From "Just*in Time," Justin's column in A&U Magazine, America's AIDS Magazine. Listen, I've been reading and watching your blog, Justin's HIV Journal, and I've been a fan of yours and it is truly inspirational to see your strength through it all. Well, all in all, I've been diagnosed with HIV for a year now and I've been very open with my status to guys I've tried to date and to even some of my friends. Now I'm single and I feel more alone than ever. I've tried to date poz guys, but most of the ones I've met want to only bareback and I don't want any part of it. I'm scared I will be alone for the rest of my life until the day I die. Any words of advice for me? -- Jason Jason, We have to be strong and know that there will be someone out there that will love us for who we are and not see disease when looking into our eyes or soul. Now, when a man says that he doesn't want you because of your status, respect his decision and move on. The more time you waste thinking about a person who doesn't want you, the more time is wasted not looking for the one who does want you. Look inside yourself and know that you are beautiful inside and out and if someone cannot see that then fuck them. Also, and this has helped me, I suggest that you find an activity that makes you happier than hell and go for it head-on. Keep in mind, too, that there are groups that do have a poz theme to them that are not about dating but about networking and having people that are or will go through the same things you are. Also, if your friends are starting to turn their backs on you just because you have HIV then they are not really your friends and you do not need that drama. I find that there are a lot of people who want a relationship when they are first diagnosed because they are looking for that acceptance that it is okay and that someone will love them. I'm not saying this is happening with you but keep that in perspective. All I'm saying is that be comfortable with yourself and love yourself -- then that will open your heart to be loved by someone else.
-- Michelle Michelle, Okay, in my opinion, tell him!!! Well, if you two haven't been intimate then that is good because he should at least have the choice of knowing that this is not what he wants. Give him the option to say "no" or to say "yes." In my opinion, the earlier you tell him the more he will respect you in the end. Also there are laws in some states that have been enacted to criminalize people who are living with HIV. I'm not here to scare you, but you need to know the truth. When you tell him I suggest that you do so in a very comfortable and familiar setting to you both. Be very careful. When telling a loved one it can be very hard. I can relate -- I didn't even get a chance to tell my own mother; she found out through a family member, one I thought I could trust. It is better if he hears from you than one of your friends or family members. Remember, Michelle, there are worse things than to tell your partner that you have HIV, and that would be to not tell him. Stay strong -- honesty is the best policy.

Justin's HIV Journal Justin B. Terry-Smith Justin B. Terry-Smith may be one of the most public African Americans living with HIV: He has his own blog and Web site, and he's even on YouTube. And who can blame him? Only 30, he already has an incredible story to tell.

Whether it is preserving a vintage downtown or converting an old warehouse into the headquarters of a new business, experience has shown that historic preservation is usually most successful when local people work at the local level to protect and reuse local historic resources. The Certified Local Governments program recognizes that local efforts need support, and that communities can benefit from working with state and federal partners who share the same goal. It is this spirit of partnership which gave rise to Ohio's Certified Local Governments program in 1985. Often called "CLG" for short, the program is a federal-state-local partnership that enables eligible communities to conduct a wide range of preservation activities in cooperation with the State Historic Preservation Office and the U.S. Department of the Interior, including surveys of historic resources and nominating properties to the National Register of Historic Places.
Becoming a Certified Local Government entitles your community to apply for Certified Local Government matching grants. Ten percent of the historic preservation funds that Ohio receives from the federal government each year is set aside for these grants; in a typical year about $98,000 is available to Certified Local Governments in Ohio to identify their historic, architectural, and archaeological resources through surveys, nominate eligible properties and districts to the National Register of Historic Places, further community education on historic preservation; and preserve and rehabilitate historic properties. The State Historic Preservation Office encourages communities to apply for certification and grants.
Program Requirements In order to become a Certified Local Government, a political jurisdiction must have the following:
How to Become a Certified Local Government
Cities and villages as well as other political jurisdictions in Ohio that can enact historic preservation ordinances are invited to apply for certification if they meet the above program requirements. The chief elected official should identify a contact person to take the lead in ensuring that a community's Certified Local Government program is coordinated.
This person will request the following materials before applying:
Ohio's Certified Local Government Guidelines spell out the responsibilities of the State Historic Preservation Office and Certified Local Governments. These guidelines approved by the National Park Service in 1985 form the basis for all program activities.
Certified Local Government Checklist outlines in detail the items required for certification. The checklist restates the requirements outlined in the Certified Local Government Guidelines in a way that enables the State Historic Preservation Office and the National Park Service to quickly review information provided by your community.
The Certified Local Government Certification Application is to be completed by prospective Certified Local Governments, then evaluated by the State Historic Preservation Office. This application requests a number of additional items, such as resumes of your preservation commission members, copies of your local historic preservation legislation, and the completed Certified Local Government Checklist. We gladly advise communities on Certified Local Government program requirements, and invite you to write or call.
Steps to Certification
The Certified Local Government certification process takes place in seven steps:
The Certification Partnership
Communities work closely with the State Historic Preservation Office after they become Certified Local Governments, receiving materials and guidance on an ongoing basis or on special request. certified communities may apply for Certified Local Government Grants to work on a wide range of preservation projects under guidance of the State Historic Preservation Office, including surveys to identify the community's historic and archaeological resources; research and preparation of forms nominating local buildings, sites, structures, objects or historic districts to the National Register of Historic Places or local registers of historic properties; development and production of design guidelines, planning materials, and historic preservation workshops. Certified Local Governments are invited to regular and special functions of the State Historic Preservation Office.
Monitoring and Evaluation
To maintain a high quality Certified Local Government program in Ohio, the State Historic Preservation Office monitors the local historic preservation program with an eye toward assisting certified communities. Communities are usually evaluated after the first year of the program, and every four years thereafter, the idea being to help the community meet the standards and expectations of the program. If the State Historic Preservation Office finds an issue that needs improvement, then such improvements are suggested.
The Certified Local Government program is voluntary, and any community can terminate its program after a written request to do so is received by the State Historic Preservation Office. The State Historic Preservation Office, too, may request decertification of communities who do not meet program standards, but does not envision this happening because communities are offered guidance and every reasonable opportunity to correct deficiencies.

Market Focus on Greece; bond auction can't stop the fall of euro
Market Review yesterday: yesterday the market waited for Greek news with light trading. EU and US stocks were flat. Commodities: gold and silver pulled back slightly. Crude oil remained relatively unchanged. Currencies: US related currencies were bouncing the trend, but European currencies were weaker. Commodity currencies were relatively strong.
Today the Greek debt shot into focus. Three commission reports were released, and the EU this week approved the probability of the third loan. Today's Greek bond auction will be the final guarantee of the debts that are due on Friday. Once the bond auction fails (assuming it does), Greek default is expected to lead the market into a panic. The US dollar, Yen will be pursued higher. If bond auction goes well, it only solves the urgency of the moment. The short uptrend of the Euro can only be short-lived. Wait for the arrival of the third aid payments, and market sentiment will be eased. A bailout agreement in debt write-off has not yet reached a consensus, and it needs more time to discuss who should bear the loss.
Today in the European session, a large number of UK data, like CPI and PPI data will be published. If they meet expectations, it will ease pressure off of the Bank of England, but an unexpected inflation will make monetary policy more cramped.
Operational recommendations this week
Yesterday three commissions submitted their Greek report. Assistance is scheduled to have grace period of two years, but the EU still has no approval when the position of the third round of assistance payments. Greek bond auction was additionally compelling. If not successful, which means this Friday Greece breach of contract will become a reality, resulting in market risk aversion, the euro would go down.
Yesterday the market was light. Greek problems continue to cause the risk currency pressure. The pound fell below 1.5883 downtrend resistance. Today the European session announced the PPI and CPI data, and if they meet the expectation the GBP uptrend callback might be in.
The brief strong AUD is waning, associated with the EU debt problems upgrade, then as well as fiscal cliff specific measures have yet appeared. The overall mood of the market in the hedge might tend to traditions. Australian dollar exchange rate might face risk of substantially lower. Today if 1.0414 cannot break through, then it will test 1.0400 integers resistance, if break below then it will test 1.0361.
USDJPY was higher in early trading, broke through to 79.5 range yesterday, but then risk aversion - driven by the downtrend euro - again pushed up the Yen. Today after the USDJPY is expected to again test the downtrend resistance 79.12 first-line.
The U.S. dollar went strong again in early trading, leading the USDCHF to break the high of 0.9491. It tested uptrend 0.9500 mark integer ranges yesterday. Today if it goes back to test 0.9491 and stabilizes, I expect it to go up.
Overnight, impacted by fiscal cliff and EU debt problems, the price of gold continued to fall below the lower edge of the shock interval 1729. This morning it failed to fall below 1720's downtrend resistance and test back. Today wait for it to test 1729.

All eyes on the spies
PUBLISHED: 10 May 2014 02:42:00 | UPDATED: 12 May 2014 12:14:32PUBLISHED: 10 May 2014 PRINT EDITION: 10 May 2014Former NSA director General Alexander concedes "it is valuable to have these differences of opinion". Photo: Reuters
Christopher Joye
The Australian Financial Review's interview this week with the world's most powerful spy, General Keith Alexander, who was the longest-serving director of the US National Security Agency and the first person to run Washington's Cyber Command, evoked conflicting opinions from combatants in the divisive yet distorted intelligence gathering debate.
For the Wall Street Journal the interview was General Alexander's "most extensive on-the-record discussion" in which he "offered relatively blunt comments on classified matters not often discussed on the record by current officials". The Director of the US Cyber Consequences Unit, Scott Borg, described it as "remarkable" and "illuminating".
But for Glenn Greenwald, a key collaborator and staunch defender of fugitive former NSA contractor, Edward Snowden – who General Alexander says was responsible for the most damaging intelligence leaks in history – the Financial Review's "remarkably long and wide-ranging interview" (that yielded "vital" admissions) was "uncritical" and "sycophantic".
This is a taste of the bewildering polarities in the furore over liberty and security that has erupted since Snowden took it upon himself to steal more than 100,000 NSA documents on its classified intelligence collection capabilities without, General Alexander says, availing himself of ordinary whistleblowing avenues, like the NSA's general counsel, the Inspector General, or Congress.
Offered safe harbour by Russia after China's regime allowed him to avoid US extradition from Hong Kong, and happily fielding "Dorothy Dixers" to Russia's president Vladimir Putin on national television, Snowden is, in General Alexander's judgment, now an instrument of foreign intelligence agencies.
Disclosures 'will make us stronger'
And yet, notwithstanding Snowden's clearly illegal and, from an intelligence perspective, immensely destructive decisions, President Obama conceded in a landmark January speech that the debate initiated by the disclosures "will make us stronger" and had led him, after a deliberate review process, to "announce a series of concrete and substantial reforms" to America's intelligence gathering goliath. Indeed, Snowden was runner-up in Time's 2013 "Person of the Year" competition and ranked number one in Foreign Policy's 2013 list of "Leading Global Thinkers". The Washington Post and The Guardian were awarded the Pulitzer Prize for "public service" this year for their coverage of his leaks.
But if you listen to General Alexander or Australia's Attorney General, George Brandis, Snowden is a traitor. In an April speech in Washington, Brandis argued Snowden is neither a "whistleblower, nor, despite the best efforts of some of the gullible self-loathing left, or the anarcho-libertarian right, to romanticise him, is he any kind of folk hero".
"He is a traitor because, by a cold-blooded and calculated act, he attacked your country by significantly damaging its capacity to defend itself from its enemies, and in doing so, he put your citzens' lives at risk." General Alexander agrees – and accuses a complicit media of the same. One way to make sense of this disconnect is by juxtaposing the divergent claims of leading civil libertarians, who can be distinguished by those who have had a chance to examine what the NSA does, and those who have not.
According to the Director of Civil Liberties at the Stanford Centre for Internet and Society, Jennifer Granick, "the good people at NSA have literally pulverised the Fourth Amendment, government accountability, freedom of expression, rule of law, and so many other equally critical components of the American system". Put more bluntly, "it's time to call the NSA's mass surveillance programs what they are: criminal".
Libertarians differ
Granick is an outsider and, in her defence, made these remarks before the Obama Administration had published the findings of its exhaustive review process in December 2013. Granick's position, which is representative of the views of many anarcho-libertarians such as Wikileak's Julian Assange, can be contrasted against the insider account of one of America's most highly-regarded civil libertarians and constitutional lawyers, Geoffrey Stone.
Professor Stone, who is a professor at the University of Chicago and serves on the Advisory Council of the American Civil Liberties Union, was hand-picked by President Barack Obama as one of five members of his personal "review group" to appraise the NSA's activities post-Snowden.
The other members of this Review Group on Intelligence and Communications Technologies were professors of privacy and constitutional law, a former deputy director of the CIA, and a senior counter-terrorism expert. In an interview with the Financial Review, Professor Stone explains that he was an unashamed NSA sceptic before having an opportunity to assess its practices from the inside.
"I went into the NSA with the preconceptions that the media had shaped, which is that it was running amok and the review group's job was to stop them from doing so," he said.
"I had casually bought into the notion that NSA were the bad guys."
But to his "surprise" what the review group found "was that the NSA has been doing what it has been authorised to do . . . by statute, judicial decision, and executive order".
Contrary to popular media and pundit myth, the NSA had not been acting like a "rogue agency and doing things outside the bounds of what it has been instructed to do". Professor Stone says the NSA's many critics have "leapt to these conclusions without understanding the background laws".
And it is here we unearth the most important insight: there is, as President Obama says, always scope to reform the way the US intelligence community works in order to shield liberty and privacy.
Professor Stone made no bones about the fact that the "review group certainly took issue with important aspects of the ways these intelligence programs operated and functioned and made 46 strong recommendations to the president on how they could be improved".
Even the cyber-warrior General Alexander buys into the need for regular debate and reform: "I think it is valuable to have these differences of opinion". "Can we do it better?" he asks. "The answer is, I think so."
Concerns addressed
He says in response to the review group's December report, the NSA came up with the solutions to the contentious "metadata" gathering program, which gave spies access to domestic communications (specifically, the time, date, duration and numbers of a call but not their content, names or addresses), "to address the civil liberties and privacy concerns people had while ensuring we did not materially undermine critical capabilities".
The metadata storage system was introduced after 9/11 when seven NSA-intercepted calls made to an al-Qaeda safe house in Yemen by one of the hijackers, Khalid al-Mihdhar, who was based in California, were assumed to have originated overseas because the NSA did not have the telephone number identifier. While the US program is very similar to "data retention" requirements imposed by governments on communications companies around the world, including most European Union states, for security purposes, it has fuelled controversy in America because, as President Obama, correctly notes it had "never been subject to vigorous public debate".
As a former president of the Harvard Law Review, civil rights attorney and lecturer in constitutional law at the University of Chicago, President Obama is well equipped to opine on the legality of the spies' activities.
In January, this characteristically risk-averse lawyer declared that although he always "maintained a healthy scepticism toward our surveillance programs after I became president" nothing in his initial post-Snowden review "and nothing I have learned since indicated that our intelligence community has sought to violate the law or is cavalier about the civil liberties of their fellow citizens ".
"To the contrary, in an extraordinarily difficult job . . . the men and women of the intelligence community . . . consistently follow protocols designed to protect the privacy of ordinary people," President Obama said. "They're not abusing authorities in order to listen to your private phone calls or read your emails."
NSA program lawful
In throwing out an American Civil Liberties Union suit against the government for violating the Fourth Amendment with the metadata program, Judge William Pauley found that it was "lawful" and that there was "no evidence the government has used any of the bulk telephony metadata it collected for any purpose other than investigating and disrupting terrorist attacks". He emphasised that the program was "subject to executive and congressional oversight, as well as continual monitoring by a dedicated group of judges who serve on the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court."
Professor Stone says that in its lazy quest for "easy victims" the media has "demonised" the NSA. While he believes there has been "substantial overreach in the formulation of these programs", he also thinks critics have hit the wrong target. "It is much more complicated to say members of Congress, the President and executive branch, and the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court have not done their jobs properly."
According to General Alexander, top politicians, and other intelligence leaders, Snowden's unprecedented theft of vast quantities of classified documents has done enormous damage to the West's ability to identify and prevent threats to its rules-based, market-oriented and democratic business model.
For those less concerned with security risks and focused more on the collateral cost to liberty, Snowden has heroically tipped the balance in their favour. A certain casualty in this contest is the many thousands of selfless, patriotic and lowly paid intelligence professionals who toil away in anonymity trying to keep us safe.

What is life really like in this glorious suite? Tom and Rick gave it their best shot and it was pretty freaking funny.

Makamakaole Stream "13 Crossings"
Where: Past Waihe'e and before Kahakuloa on Highway 340
Length: 2.5+/- Miles (Round Trip) + 1 mile to lower falls.
Time: 3 hours +/-
Difficulty: 3 of 5 (5 being most difficult)
Elevation: 813 ft
Parking: Very Limited along road (we will need to car pool)
Security: No
The Makamakaole Stream runs down the north slope of West Maui, one of the least developed regions of our island.
This hike is nicknamed "13 Crossings," because that is the number of times the trail crosses the stream through a bamboo forest before the trail ends at a waterfall.
The trail head is located 8/10 mile west of mile marker 7 on highway 340 (except we're told that Mile markers "6″ and "7″ are often reported as missing — so we need to drive 2.8 miles past mile marker "5″ on highway 340). There is room for 2-3 cars to park right at the entrance to the trail head 3 cars about 100 feet before and 3 cars 100 feet after the trailhead.
We are told that the GPS noted the coordinates for this "parking location" as: N 20 57.500 W156 32.085 (elevation 813 ft.) for anyone interested
Reconnaissance Report: "The hike took us about an hour to get to the end of the trail. At the 12th crossing, the stream forks left and right.
We took the right fork and it ended at a 30 foot 2 tier waterfall.
The water is very shallow so it was not the best place to swim but
the water fall is nice and it's a great spot to cool off."
NOTE: These are non-sponsored hikes. By selecting to participate, hikers accept the full responsibility for their safety.
Please RSVP by March 13th so we know how many to expect.
