Collecting debrais from around the coral in the island in kuwait QAROUH ISLAND
The Explora Madeira Diving Center has the pleasure to present and to invite all of you to participate in our event. Clean up Dives and Biologists Conference and free dives in the pool. For all the participants discounts in our services and free drink. Let us know if you are interested. For more information contact us.
BEACH AND REEF CLEANUP! at Tekek Tioman Below Jetty
Tekek is nice and beatiful but it is poluted by tourism. therefore we plan to clean up the beach to gain back better underwater .
Celebreting earth week we are organising a day full of fun and education.
We will be starting with an orientation followed by a Conservation lecture held by one of our instructor who helds a degree in marine biology.
Then we will get stuck in by cleaning our local beach followed by two dives on our local reef.
We will finish the event with a afternoon lecture and films/documtaries in the evening.
On Sunday 11th May 2014, Blue Corner Dive will be holding a Dive Against Debris at our house reef, Pontoon. This dive site receives a lot of visitor traffic and a number of big vessels have mooring locations close by, for this reason much rubbish and debris can be found here. Our aim will be to complete a 50 minute dive with the objective soley based on rubbish collection. All debris collected will be weighed, sorted, reported and disposed of and the results will be submitted to Project AWARE online.
Divers Down Dubai are arranging swimming challenges, activities, raffles and shark conservation information stands for both kids and athletes. The Finathon will be open for different ages and abilities to raise much needed funds to save these apex predators.
We are calling on divers, instructors, families, club members, guests and schools to join our Finathon and be champions for sharks. It's a fun, healthy way to raise awareness for this important cause.
There are prizes for outstanding fundraising, distances achieved and more!
Dado que la limpieza anterior tuvo que suspenderse por mal tiempo, nos citamos nuevamente para este proyecto de limpieza de playas en Jávea. Contamos con vosotros.
Crystal Diver's IDC Candidates; Jim Sheward, Jus Singleton, Javi Fulli, Lars Christensen, David McKinley, Danielle Middleton, Julien Rabineau & Kimura Takuya spent their day cleaning tidying up their underwater office in Sanur, Bali.

Electric aircraft within reach of average aviators
By Grant Banks
November 11, 2010
While it may be some time before we see electric propulsion used in commercial airliners, at the other end of the scale, business is booming. The biggest problem facing designers is the weight-to-energy ratio of fuel cells, meaning that they are a heavy way of carrying around energy. Luckily in the light aviation world, designers don't have to worry so much about having long flight durations or carrying heavy payloads. This has made achieving electric and hybrid flight not only possible but also accessible to the average aviator.
One of the leaders in European and world electric aviation has been the French company Electravia. Its range of electric planes, ultralights and gliders boasts a couple of firsts, including the Electra which was the first 100 percent electric plane in the world, the ElectroTrike which was the first delta trike marketed in Europe, and the Alatus-ME, a motoglider which comes in either a conventional 2-stroke version or with a purpose-built electric motor and propeller set up.
Gizmag was lucky enough to see the Alatus-ME up close at the Salon de l'aviation verte in Paris earlier this year. It took around 40 minutes to set it up, probably due to the constant questions from visitors. With a 43ft (13m) wingspan, an hour and a half range and priced at €32,400 (a little over US$40,000), it is well within the range of your average aviator.
In the pipeline are a two prototype models – the ElectroLight, which is due to hit the market in May 2011, and the futuristic-looking ElectroClub, a delta wing concept plane capable of seating two, which looks something like a personal stealth bomber. "It's a concept plane, not realized for the moment," Anne Lavrand, General Manager of Electravia told Gizmag. "Conception is finished. We are now looking for an amount of €250,000 (US$343,680) to build the prototype and to fly it."
The Electravia E-Motor, which comes in 26, 35 and 43hp models and the E-Props – propellers especially designed for use with the electric E-Motor – were recently used to set the world speed record for an electric plane. In September, Hugues Duval achieved a top speed of 262km/h (163mph) in his purpose-built MC15E Cri Cri called "E-Cristaline". The record was set at the Pontoise Air Show. The aircraft had two 43hp E-Motors running specially engineered E-Props designed for the record attempt.
This photo mock-up uses Crater Lake, Oregon USA as the backdrop...would like to point out it is currently illegal for an aircraft to enter this airspace as it is protected as a National Park and additionally since the FAA deemed it an unsafe area to fly in after a tour guide helicopter crashed into the lake about 20 years ago.Facebook User
It is good to see more manufacturers working in this fiel...cangratulations!professore
Haha had no idea that was crater lake or that little fact about the helicopter crash...pretty cool. I\'ve lived in Oregon a long time and have only been once. I need to make another trip. Thanks for posting that little fact.Ryein Goddard
Why? AGW is BS. But, hey, if you drank the Kool-Aid, go for it. Whatever. If they can make it cheaper, and to go farther on a \"fuel load\", it\'s all good.Chris Blake

Creating a Windows Installer Package
Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP2
Before you write a setup program that incorporates Active Directory Application Mode (ADAM) Setup, you should first create a Windows Installer package for your own application installation. Windows Installer reduces the total cost of ownership (TCO) for your customers by enabling them to install and configure your products and applications efficiently. Windows Installer can also provide your product with new capabilities to advertise features without installing them, install products on demand, and add user customizations.
For more information about Windows Installer, see "Windows Installer" on the MSDN Web site at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=3985.
The basic steps for creating a simple Windows Installer package are as follows:
Plan the installation.
List the general installation layout, including the files to install, the source path, and the target path. In addition, list all registry-related operations. Place the .exe file to install and all supporting files in a specific directory. You can also store supporting files in a hierarchy of subdirectories.
Import a blank database.
To create a Windows Installer package, you copy (or create with a software tool) a Windows Installer database file. A blank installation database, Schema.msi, is provided with the Microsoft Platform Software Development Kit (SDK) components for Windows Installer developers. The SDK also provides a partially blank database, Uisample.msi, which contains the suggested sequence tables and data required for a simple user interface. Copy Uisample.msi into the directory that contains the .exe file to be installed. The installation database file and the source files must be located at the root of the same directory. Otherwise, you will receive Setup errors.
Specify the directory structure.
The installer stores information about the installation directory structure in the Directory table. Use the database editor, Orca — or another editor — to add information to the Directory table.
List the constituent components.
List all components that are part of the installation. A component can be a set of files or resources that are added to the component table of the database.
Specify files and file attributes.
Add all relevant files to the Files table.
Enter source media information in the Media table.
The Media table describes the set of disks that make up the source media for the installation.
Define features.
Add product features to the Feature table. The installer enables users to install and remove portions of an application's functionality, which are called Windows Installer features. When you include ADAM with your application, you can define ADAM as a separate feature or tie it to one of the other existing features. Create a placeholder feature for ADAM if you want to install ADAM as a separate feature.
Define feature-to-component relationships.
Use the FeatureComponents table to define the relationships between features and components. Each feature uses one or more components, and features can share components.
Add registry information and shortcut properties.
The Registry table and related tables of the installation database hold the registry information that must be written in the system registry for the application. The Shortcut table and related tables of the installation database hold information needed to install shortcuts.
Specify properties.
Windows Installer properties are global variables that the installer uses during an installation. You do not have to define all properties in every package; however, a small set of properties is required. The installer sets the values of properties in a particular order of precedence.
Populate sequence tables.
Several sequence tables must be populated for the application setup to run:
- InstallExecuteSequence
Add summary information.
Summary information is not critical for running Setup, but summary information is essential for the package to pass validation. You can use the tool MsiInfo.exe, which is provided with the Windows Installer SDK, to set these properties.

Obi-Wan's Brown Cloak Sells for $104,000
LONDON — The brown hooded cloak worn by Obi-Wan Kenobi in the "Star Wars" films – and then forgotten for years in a warehouse – sold for $104,000 to an anonymous telephone bidder Tuesday at an auction of movie and TV memorabilia.
Audience members raised their paddles in rapid succession as costumes flashed across TV screens at Bonhams, a British auctioneer, as staff fielded phone bids from all over the world. When the hammer dropped on a Bond girl's cat-suit or Anthony Hopkins' army uniform, men in dark blazers whispered the prices into their cell phones.
"It's nerve-racking, of course it is," costume collector Kamran Raja said as the outfits from "Evita," which starred Madonna, were auctioned off. He made a bid, paying $5,200 to add a fur-lined dressing gown from the 1996 movie to his 40-piece collection, which he said included one of Madonna's bras.
"I just aged 20 years in two minutes," he said.
The auction's main attraction was the hooded cloak worn by Alec Guinness as Ben Obi-Wan Kenobi in "Star Wars." It had gone unnoticed in the company's inventory until its provenance was discovered last year.
"How would anyone have known when that film was made that it would attain cult status?" said Tim Angel, chairman of Angels The Costumiers.
Angel said the company was trying to cut insurance costs by selling some 400 movie, TV and theater costumes from its 1.5 million-piece collection.
Some of the more eye-catching costumes – including Mel Gibson's kilt from "Braveheart" and the James Bond dinner jacket from "Thunderball" – were modeled by Bonhams staff.
While most of the bidders were dealers or collectors, a few were looking for a cheap conversation piece from a famous film or actor, said Bonhams specialist Stephanie Connell.
"You might just wear a suit to a dinner party and say, 'Look, it's a Michael Caine suit,'" Connell said. However, the Bond dinner jacket – a big-ticket item that sold for $64,700 – would probably never see another martini, she said.
The auction also included the beaten metal helmet worn by Terry Jones in "Monty Python and the Holy Grail." It sold for $19,300, 20 times more than its pre-sale estimate.
Raja, the pop costume collector, was mystified.
"It's just a metal bucket," he said, shaking his head.

Over the years, people have tried to transfer information from one computer to another in a dizzying number of ways. Here's a look at some of the best, along with others that time forgot.
Removable storage for your rodent?
This IBM/Hitachi press photo shows not a capybara-size hamster but a tiny Compact Flash-size hard-disk drive called the Microdrive.
Introduced in 2003, this miracle of miniaturisation briefly provided high storage capacity and performance for low cost - before ever-more-capacious flash media eclipsed those advantages.
The Apple iPod (2001) and other media players used similar spinning-disk devices, but device makers (and household pets) became frustrated with the Microdrive's inherent fragility, high power requirements, and limited storage capacity. The format is already flirting with obsolescence.
Photo: Hitachi
The USB connection
Since 1998 or so, PC users have been living in the USB era.
The convenience of USB plug-and-play operation makes every computer user's life easier, and that advantage extends to removable storage as well.
Small, portable USB-powered hard drives (lower left) are common today; they hold lots of data and get cheaper every year.
Even more popular is today's reigning removable-media champ: the USB thumb drive (introduced in 2000).
In coupling flash media's rapidly growing data-storage capability with conveniently small size, the USB key is the format to beat - and it might prove to be the last removable media we'll need.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|2 nights
4 BR 3 bath log style home with easy access and views of Lake Cumberland. Bring your toothbrush and up to 8 people for a relaxing vacation.
We were looking for a quick quiet get away from Lexington KY. This house was perfect. It was secluded and offered an excellent location for my Husband and I with our two dogs to get away from it all and relax.
Beautiful home with a beautiful view! Definitely will stay again. Home was clean and we enjoyed playing the variety of board games that was available. The only downside was the proximity to the marina.
We rented the house for a short weekend of boating and wanted to stay somewhere nicer than the traditional hotels and boating cabins located in this area. The house worked out great. It's spacious with a beautiful view of the lake and mountains. The house was as advertised in a new neighborhood / development with only 5-6 houses that have been built so it's extremely quiet and peaceful. You basically have the entire neighborhood to yourselves. We would definitely rent again.
My family of four and my parents rented this cabin for a week during July, and the photographs do not do it justice! The house is very new construction, spotlessly clean, comfortable beds, quality linens, and the kitchen is stocked well with pantry staples and cooking supplies. It's also gorgeous! And the view, THE VIEW! These photographs fall short, it was breathtakingly beautiful, the river has a turquoise sheen during the day, and the sun sets directly across from the porch during the evening. Each sunset was amazing. My 9 yr-old went off exploring and found tons of fossils on a nearby hill! Everything works wonderfully, and we had a spectacular time!!! We will definitely be back!
Our family of 5 (plus dog) needed a short escape for Spring break. This was a perfect fit. Great cabin. Remote, quite, clean and roomy. It is located in empty gated community (only 6 of 120 lots are occupied). Plenty of room to run, ride bikes, walk the dog, play catch, etc. More than enough room to park a boat trailer in the street. And is just a few minutes from Alligator Creek (I and II) boat ramps and ~15 min from Russell Springs.
My only concern would be for older guests. The inside stairs are a bit steep and slippery. But there are two rooms on the main floor so usage of the stairs is not required for all guests.
NOTE: As of this posting, the location on the VBRO map is wrong, Google "e coffey rd eli, ky" for a better idea of its true location.
We rented the house for a short weekend of boating and it worked out nicely. The house was located just about 10 minutes from a public ramp (no fee). Just take route 76 southeast until you get to the ramp. If you need gas for the boat don't worry you'll will pass right by "Indian Hills Resort Alligator II Marina" on the way out to bigger water.
The house itself was just like it was advertised. The house is relatively new and located in a new neighborhood / development. The development is also gated. The house was clean and the beds were comfortable.
Quiet and secluded with convenient access to marina and affordable entertainment including Mammoth Cave, bowling, go karts, mini golf, movie theater, roller rink and live theater.

Pacasmayo classique approche à grands pas
With the conclusion of the epic San Carlos Quatre Showdown désert, il est temps de regarder vers l'avant pour le prochain événement. Le Pacasmayo classique, mis à lancer Août 25 dans Pacasmayo Pérou, promet d'être l'un à ne pas manquer. The Pacasmayo Classic takes place at one of the premier Port Tack Wave Sailing destinations in the world. The location offers one of the longest waves in the world, allowing riders to really show their skill and surf style.
The event is open to anyone, and already many of the top AWT riders have locked in their place. We expect to see Top Woman Ingrid Larouche, Top Master Ferdinando Lofreda, Amateur Winner Ruben Lemmens, and a slew of the top Pros from this year's tour. Tour Leader Camille Juban, along with other pros Bernd Roediger, Morgan Noireaux, and Russ Faurot are among those that are confirmed.
Competitors will stay at the Hotel El Faro Adventure Resort at a hugely discounted rate. For only $30/day you will be housed and fed. That is a deal that cannot be beat. For help with accommodations check with www.elfaropacasmayo.com, and also email email@example.com. Email Ricardo at firstname.lastname@example.com with further questions, and to confirm your transportation from the airport in Lima to the eventsite. From Lima, you can fly, or catch a bus to Pacasmayo.
"Following my first full season on the AWT in 2012 I have concentrated on judging in 2013 and was extremely pleased to be asked to step up to be Head Judge for the Peru event this year. The AWT is a true wave riding tour and the addition of the Pacasmayo Classic in 2012 helped to underline this further. Following a hugely successful event in Mexico, riders are fully motivated to test their skills and score more ranking points at one of the longest waves in the world. Life on Tour is more than just time on the water. The cultural experience and travel which the AWT enables has changed my life forever and this next experience will be eyeopening. I am looking forward to meeting a whole new part of the AWT family in South America and catching up with many old friends from the region. The judges have worked closely together this year to further enhance our evaluation of riders' and the introduction of our new brackets at the last event further encouraged riders to push their limits in the earlier rounds with the knowledge that they would have a second chance without waiting for a double elimination. The new format was welcomed by riders, sponsors and media alike and this will be the preferred format in the future." Chris Freeman | AWT Pacasmayo Classic Head Judge
The Pacasmayo Classic is AWT sanctioned and a part of the IFCA South American Wave Sailing and Slalom Championships.

In Lawson v. FMR LLC, No. 10-2240, 2012 U.S. App. LEXIS 2085 (1st Cir. Feb. 3, 2012), the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit, in a case of first impression, held that the whistleblower provision in Section 806 of Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, 18 U.S.C. § 1514A ("SOX"), applies only to employees of public companies, and does not protect employees of private companies who are contractors or subcontractors for the covered public company. This decision, the first decision by a United States Court of Appeals on this issue, helps clarify the definition of "covered employee" under whistleblower provisions of SOX.
Plaintiffs Jackie Hosang Lawson and Jonathan M. Zang each brought separate actions in which they alleged unlawful retaliation by their employers in violation of the whistleblower protections of Section 806 of SOX. Section 806(a) of SOX provides, in relevant part, that "[n]o company with a class of securities registered under section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 . . . or any officer, employee, contractor, subcontractor, or agent of such company, may discharge, demote, suspend, threaten, harass, or in any other manner discriminate against an employee in the terms and conditions of employment because of any lawful act done by the employee . . . . "
The employers of Lawson and Zang were each private companies that provided advising or management services by contract to the Fidelity family of mutual funds. Lawson's and Zang's employers each moved to dismiss the claims arguing, in part, that the plaintiffs were not "covered employees" within the meaning of Section 806. The United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts denied the motions, ruling that the SOX whistleblower protection of Section 806 extended to employees of private agents, contractors and subcontractors to public companies. Defendants moved for an interlocutory appeal and the district court certified a "controlling question of law" to the First Circuit.

Fireplace Remodel - See Pics
2 Attachment(s)
I need to raise the base of the hearth to accomodate my 2cm granite slab. It is about 3.5 inches here now. I hesitate to use wood due to expansion and code regulations. There was sand in this subspace previously. I of course need to make it level before I measure and put in granite.
Once I figure out support underneath, I plan to add hardibacker, thinset and then granite.
The heat from the fire is not a concern since the new vented gas won't get near as hot as a wood burning fireplace, however we left the fireplace so that it could be converted back for any future owners.
Thanks for any help.
Once you have the support you need just mud it in and level it out good then install.
Is a wood base okay to support or should I use sand?
If you use wood be sure to hold it back from the fire box a little. I have see people build right up to the fire box and the house caught fire from the edge of the hearth getting so hot. I know you aren't going to burn wood but someone on down the road might.
You could build within 6 inches or so of the fire box with wood and then use something fire proof the rest of the way. I personally wouldn't use sand as a base because something dropped could cause a crack. JMHO
I am not in favor of the sand either. I could easily allow for 6 inches around the firebox. Any suggestions for support in that space.
If it were mine I would build up with wood except for the area at the edge of the fire box, I would build up a mud base to the height of the wood, install a backer board over the wood and mud then make the install.
