SMS Permission required to count the number of SMS sent to track your usage, SMS are never read (use a packet sniffer to check!)
Phone settings permission allows network reset on certain Android versions
Based on our community-generated data we are able to help keep you better connected by giving you a practical solution to the problems of slow mobile internet and dropped calls. Simply follow our signal compass to walk towards better phone signal or see our in-app coverage maps to work out which carrier is best for where you are, useful if you're thinking about changing. Our wifi maps help you find local public-access wireless networks (WAPs).
We use Google Maps in our apps, email us if you cannot access Google Maps, email us to request another map technology.
The Stats tab helps you to keep track of your usage, so there's no danger of you going over your plan limit on data, voice or text. (NB – this is why the app needs permission to access contacts and SMS, these are the permissions needed to count calls and texts, messages are never accessed or read!).
Maps not updated in real-time. Don't worry though, we log the information you share with us to improve our coverage maps and signal information. We're working hard to make sure the data you contribute to the project is available to everyone as quickly as possible.
- Not all towers and wireless routers are in our database - we're working on it!
- Verizon & Sprint (CDMA) users will see only one connected tower at a time
- Moving in the direction of your cell tower (the signal compass) will not always improve reception due to interference effects/local geography.
Advanced notes:
- For GSM, cell tower are identified via cell id and location area code (CID and LAC)
- For CDMA cell towers are identified via Network ID, Base sub-station ID and system ID (NID, BSSID and SID).
If you read to here (!) you should really join the OpenSignal beta to help us improve the app:

WiFi Overview 360
WiFi Overview 360 is not only a WLAN Scanner, which shows all WLANs in range, the app is much more.
This app is a "Swiss Army Knife" for WLAN.
With this tool you can manage and optimize your used wireless network and and with one look you'll get detailed information of the WLANs (WLAN name (SSID), signal strength, channelnumber, encryptionin - open or not) in your environment.
The tab "Ch check" (channel checker) and "Ch. radar" (channel radar) are powerful tool to optimize your own wlan network. For best performance your network must use a channel or frequency range where are no other wireless networks or little as possible. WiFi Overview 360 gives you the best choice for the channel.
Main features are:
- wlan scanner
- detailed wlan information
- add WLANs manually
- endless list of known WLANs (previously limited to 16)
- graphical representation of all wireless networks in the operating range

Network Signal Info
Do you know ? Network Signal Info / Pro are UNIQUE
This type of software is ONLY available on Android smartphones - neither iOS nor Window Phones.
Two widgets, one for mobile- and one for WiFi-signalstrength.
(If you can't find widgets, please copy the app to phone memory)
I have put special value on the visualization of the WiFi and mobile signal strength. They are normally only divided in weakly, good and excellent. Graphically in the form of mostly "only" three to five bars on the Mobile Radio and three to five "waves" by a WiFi connection.
In my app I differentiate the signal strength in total 14 bars. This will give you a quick visualized and detailed information about how good the signal strength is really.
In addition to the much more sophisticated graphical representation of the signal strength you will see some more interesting information.
In "Mobile Signal":
Network operators, Sim operator, phone type, network type, network strength in dbm and ASU, data state, data activity, country code of the mobile phone, device ID, IP address, roaming state.
In "WiFi signal":
WiFi-Name (SSID), BSSID, MAC address, maximum WiFi speed, IP address, external IP address, net capability, net channel, subnet mask, Gateway IP address, DHCP server address, DNS1 and DNS2 address.
If you like the app, please give me a positive rating in the market.
The Pro version (compared to the free version) has no ads, a NEW cell tower database with more than 22 million entries, a NEW MOBILE SIGNAL TRACKER function that generates a KML file for use with Google Earth, more widgets, a MOBILE SIGNAL LOST SERVICE and much more.

NETGEAR WiFi Analytics
WiFi | Mobile Network Speed
Veloxity WiFi & Mobile Network Speed is your personal assistant for Network Quality and Data Utilization.
With Veloxity, you can:
- Measure App Speed in Real Time.
- Find the best Public WiFi connection.
- Clean your Home WiFi channel.
- Compare WiFi vs. Cellular Net App Speed. Choose the best network.
- Control your Data Expenses! Never exceed your data quota again.
First major feature of WiFi & Mobile Network Speed is to show your WiFi network quality, not only by signal strength but also by interference and by network load. You will be able to solve interference issues by switching to the best channel suggested. If you see INTERFERED in your Wi-Fi status, use one of the free channels we recommend, and you will have a much higher speed. If you see WiFi FAR notification, you will experience lower data speeds. So it is time to choose a closer spot to use your WiFi or get a repeater if you cannot change your router location.
Measure your Network Speed, in real time. This is our WiFi & Mobile Network Speed App's second major feature. The way we test your network speed is different than all speed test tools in the market. Actually we do not test it, we show the speed you really experience. Regular speed test tools downloads and uploads an anonymous file through their own server. So what they really measure is the performance of and the route to their server as well as your own WiFi or Cellular radio link. This type of test will not tell if your TV App or YouTube will show the same performance. What Veloxity measures instead is the Network Speed of each and every single App in your device. So you will see how YouTube, Facebook or your favorite Game performs in your network.
While we measure your Apps Speed and Clean your Network Quality, we did not forget about your quota. Clean links mean faster data speeds. Faster data speeds mean more data consumption. While most of WiFi subscriptions data quota are large enough, most of the Mobile subscriptions are still very limited. Exceeding your quota will result in high number in your monthly bill. Veloxity will keep a track of your total data usage per App, so that you can easily manage your quota, see which Apps you spend most of your money on.
We also prepared a small Game for you if you want to share your network experience with your friends.
Your network quality is a personal matter for us. Please enjoy our utility at no cost.

WiFi Key Recovery (needs root)
** You need to have connected to the network in the past.
** This app cannot "hack" into an unknown/new network.
I cannot help you with getting root. Have a look at http://forum.xda-developers.com for that.
Have you ever forgotten the password of your home WiFi network, or the one you setup for your parents a few months back?
This application will help you recover the password of a wireless network you have connected to with your device in the past.
You can then either tap on an entry to copy it, or export the list to SD, or share it using the standard Android sharing facilities.
It does not crack the network, or use the MAC/SSID address to deduce the password. It simply reads it from the device itself.
Essentially it parses the wpa_supplicant file.
For more information on how the keys are recovered read here: http://alt236.blogspot.com/2011/04/android-wifi-password-locations.html

Connection Stabilizer Booster
If you are having trouble with your cellular data connection, this is the app for you.
Loaded with lots of powerful features, this app delivers a stable mobile internet connectivity.
★★★ Active Keep Alive ★★★
Does your wireless carrier disconnects your 2G, 3G or 4G data connection after a certain period of inactivity? Or is there no data transfer even when connection is live?
Active Keep Alive along with Reset on Failure keeps your connection alive in such cases and also helps in keeping the traffic flowing between your phone and your ISP's servers. It also optimizes TCP/IP parameters if required, to give you the best possible internet experience. The network assigns a higher priority to your device and this results in significant improvement in network performance, especially if resources on the network are under strain.
★★★ Active Reconnect ★★★
Does your device often lose data signal and is unable to reconnect even though network is available? Do you miss out important chats, IMs and emails until you turn data connection on and off, maybe multiple times to get reconnected? That is a known issue that affects many people. It can be caused by handset or carrier issues.
Active Reconnect automatically reconnects your 2G GPRS, 3G or 4G LTE internet connection as soon as it gets disconnected and thus keeps the data connection active at all times.
When activated, this feature actively monitors and immediately re-establishes dropped connections, using muscle if required. This is particularly useful if android's built in system fails to connect you to the network. The monitoring process does not cause any load on your device's resources as it is intelligently invoked only when required.
Reconnection needs root access (only) on Lollipop due to new access restrictions imposed by Google.
★★★ Force Connect ★★★
Uses tricks and tweaks to establish internet connection and attains connectivity even on congested networks.
✔ Highly customizable design.
✔ This app can fix 2G, 3G and 4G internet connection problems on T-Mobile, Verizon, Sprint, Telkomsel, Tata DoCoMo, BSNL 3G, Airtel, Vodafone, Reliance or any other troublesome carrier!
✔ This ad supported app is available completely free of charge unlike other ineffective low quality paid apps.
→ If you are experiencing difficulty in establishing connection to the internet over the mobile network, just press the Force Connect button on the dashboard to try forcing the connection for once.
→ If you are facing automatic disconnection problem then activate the Active Reconnect module. It will automatically detect connection drops and actively reconnect the connection, using force connect if required.
→ If your carrier disconnects you from the network following a particular period of inactivity, activate the Active Keep Alive module. You can adjust the ping interval from the Active Keep Alive settings to be just lower than your network's inactivity timeout period.
→ If you are facing any other problem with you connection, like no data being transmitted even when connected, you can just activate the Active Keep Alive with default settings. Its pinging action is known to work wonders and solve or reduce the intensity of many congestion related network issues. It can also detect and reset frozen connections.
☆ Please don't use play store's feedback system for support. In case of issues or for any question or suggestion please contact us directly via e-mail.
German Translation by Mokkami
→ When Active Reconnect is enabled, you cannot turn off the mobile data connection directly from your device.
To disconnect, press the data setting ON OFF button on the app's dashboard or deactivate Active Reconnect before turning off mobile data from android settings.

By using WeatherSignal you become part of the world's most ambitious weather crowdsourcing project – helping to record weather patterns on a more localised level than ever before. We are working with numerous meteorological institutions, including the Univ. of Washington, Birmingham Univ. and the UK Met Office. Your readings help us improve weather forecasting for everyone!
Featured in the New Scientist and Scientific American! http://bit.ly/1aFY3Ls
*Thermometer readings are experimental!*
*** This app is experimental! Individual TEMPERATURE readings may be incorrect, but when averaged over many users we get reliable information for our community powered maps. ***
The app works best on the Galaxy S4 since it has the most sensors. Get a StormTag to add sensors to your phone.
The WeatherSignal app can measure:
✓ Pressure (certain devices only)
✓ Temperature (see note)
✓ Light Intensity
✓ Humidity (Galaxy S4 only)
✓ Magnetic Flux
✓ Acceleration (turn on in application settings)
This app features Google's Activity Recognition: monitor when you're walking, in vehicle, on a bicycle. Save the results to CSV and perform your own analysis/create maps, for example for quantified self.
We've come up with an algorithm that translates battery temperature into ambient temperature – making your phone a thermometer. For each user this is approximate but there is a very strong correlation between battery and ambient temperature when spread over a crowd of users. If you are using a cell phone without an external thermometer then the temperature reading you'll see is a battery temperature reading converted through our algorithm. Often the algorithm will get it wrong, but we've shown that with appropriate averaging and filtering, these readings correlate extremely well with external ambient air temperature.
The Galaxy S4, which has an ambient air temperature thermometer, may produce incorrect readings if the phone is hot due to use.
Devices that contain barometers include:
Galaxy Nexus
Galaxy S3, S4, Note (1,2,3)
Nexus 4
Nexus 10
Xiaomi MI-2
Units available:
millibars/hPa inches of mercury aka Hg or inches H
centigrade/celsius and Fahrenheit
The app should be downloaded onto devices that will be used in the disaster-afflicted areas, and can be used by anyone – local communities, volunteers and professionals. Data collected from every user will be aggregated to build a real time map of coverage.
A detailed explanation of how to use the app and maximise data collection while minimising battery and data usage is available on the CrisisSignal Forum at http://opensignal.com/blog/forums/forum/crisissignal/. The OpenSignal team will also post links to the maps generated from CrisisSignal data on the forum, and will be on hand to answer questions users might have.
Please note, the app will only collect information on the cellular network if the device has an activated sim card. Data on Wi-Fi connection can still be collected if the device does not have a sim card. The app also has a number of settings for collecting data. The instructions on the forum explain the different settings and give tips on how to set your own.
CrisisSignal has been used in several emergency response situations, such as after Hurricane Sandy in New York in 2012 in collaboration with the US Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and following typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines in 2013. It is also being rolled out in West Africa to monitor coverage in ebola afflicted countries in collaboration with Nethope, UNMEER and the Paul G. Allen Family Foundation. Further details are available on the CrisisSignal forum.
CrisisSignal comes with no guarantees and has been developed free of charge. Thank you for helping!

Packers Clinch Division
According to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel the Green Bay Packers have clinched the NFC North Division title and a playoff berth with their 38-7 victory over the Oakland Raiders Sunday.
Led by two special teams touchdowns by cornerback Will Blackmon, the Packers cruised to an easy victory after losing to the Dallas Cowboys a week earlier.
Blackmon who has missed a lot of the season due to a broken foot, scored on a 57 yard punt return and also recovered a muffed punt in the endzone for a touchdown.
Ryan Grant also had a sensational game for the Packers as he rushed for 156 yards and a touchdown. Grant has more rush yards after week 8 than any other running back in the league.
The balanced attack of the Packers allowed for Brett Favre to ease into the game, a week after separating his shoulder and bruising his throwing elbow forcing him to leave the game against Dallas. By starting he increased his consecutive starts streak to 250 regular-season games.
He demonstrated that he was still an elite quarterback, even while being banged up, as he threw for 266 yards and two touchdowns, including an 80 yard touchdown to Greg Jennings.

Games with Crappy Endings (Spoiler-Free)
These are the games that have disappointing endings and could've been better. The people at HISHE should create their own versions of these endings.
These are the games that have disappointing endings and could've been better. The people at HISHE should create their own versions of these endings.
You've completed a great game."
That sums it all up.
Never seen it before but people say it's bad. Need to check it out myself.
I didn't believe it at first but the reviewers were right. Rage has one of the worst endings in video game history. No final boss battle, no epic conclusion and no sense of accomplishment. All you get in the end is a lousy cutscene that fails to impress and leaves you unsatisfied. It's uncertain if id Software wanted to make it ambiguous or they couldn't come up with a great ending.
Bottom line, the ending sucks.
Out of This World is not an easy game and as classic as it is, it's disappointing to see an ending so brainless after all your hard work. Eric Chahi, the creator, had said that he deliberately left the ending ambigious to leave it to the viewer's own interpretation. I find it to be a lame excuse. I think he just couldn't come up with a good ending.
Regardless of which ending you receive, they all suck. Even the very good ending is badly executed. You don't see the protagonist's face, everything looks so static and everything feels rushed. Good thing the second BioShock has a better ending.
Even though it's a happy ending, it feels rushed and it's as if American McGee didn't put a lot of thought into it. I was hoping to see Alice saying her goodbyes to her Wonderland freaks before departing but that didn't happen. What a letdown.
After what the Battletoads been through, how could they let the Dark Queen slip away so easily? Useless bunch of frogs!
Not a bad ending but it was poorly executed. It had too many cheesy dialogue and a terrible twist that you'll just laugh at it.
If you thought the first Dementium had a bad ending, well think again. Dementium II has some of the worst endings you'll ever see.
This is the only time I will reveal a spoiler and man, this game is an incredible letdown. Instead of battling a ginormous beetle-looking alien, your last boss is some guy in a battle suit. And once you beat him, you get this abysmal cutscene that doesn't resolve anything. What a load of bull.
An awful, awful ending. Wasted an hour of my life.
The eighth level, stuff blows up, you think is the beginning of a good action sequence when suddenly - the credits roll. Wait, wh..wh..wh..wh..wha?!!
A fantastic game with an ending that could've been better. The ending (I'm reffering to the true Overtime ending) is not that bad but it feels like Capcom wasn't trying hard enough.

I'm 21 and I've been overweight most of my life. I've recently dropped 55 lbs over the course of a year. (180, now 125 at 5'2") I've noticed sagging or loose skin and I'm definitely concerned about my face. The sagging became noticeable when my face started slimming about 5 months ago. Should I lose more and my face will firm? Should I look into a facelift or are there other non-surgical ways? Does my skin just need more time and/or a specific care regimen? Facial exercises? Glycolic Peels?
Sagging Skin After Weight-loss at 21. Is a Facelift my Only Option? (photo)
Doctor Answers 22
Facial Sagging After Weight Loss
Depending on the shape and contour, if you have true facial sagging and skin atrophy, you may need to have a modified facelift even at a young age. This requires the expertise of a facial rejuvenation expert with expertise in massive weight loss and facial recontouring.
Facelift after Weight Loss
Losing significant amounts of weight can remove some of the support of the skin in any area. With rapid weight loss, there may be some later redistribution of fat as well. It is always better to wait until your weight is stable for a prolonged period before addressing skin laxity. In a young, healthy individual, it is rare to need to perform a facelift. With time, there will be some recoil of the skin previously stretched out. Enjoy your new healthy personna. If in six months you remain interested in an appearance change, seek a board certified plastic surgeon to help evaluate what might be the safest avenue.
Facelift following weight loss
After extensive weight loss, it is important to wait over a year to allow the skin to naturally tighten before any decisions are made. Skin retraction is more likely in younger people and those with thicker skin. Once a stable state is reached, a decision can be made regarding appropriate treatment. In someone young, several alternatives to facelift may be available such as Ulthera, SmartLipo, and laser or chemical peel. In older patients, a facelift and neck lift is frequently necessary.

Non-Surgical Options May Be Best, Consult A Surgeon
For this reason, conservative management is usually appropriate when skin sag develops in younger patients. In some cases injectable fillers or fat transfers may be necessary.Rarely modified facelift procedures may be indicated as well.
Your pictures suggest relatively mild skin sag. This may improve with the passage of time.Fillers may be helpful in the short term.
If you're considering surgical intervention, it's important that you consult a board certified plastic surgeon.This surgeon should be able to perform an appropriate evaluation and formulate a treatment plan.

Wait until stable weight
I suggest you wait until you've reached a stable weight before considering a facelift. Because you are still young, there is a good chance the skin on your face will firm up again as long as you lead a healthy lifestyle. For now you may want to consider nonsurgical skin tightening treatments such as laser skin tightening and fillers. These are less invasive and may be a better option considering your age.

Facelift after Massive Weight Loss at 21
From the photo, I would not recommend a facelift. However, fillers or fat grafting to restore some of the volume or help with the tear trough may be appropriate. Find the plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs thousands of procedures each year. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA

Facial aging in the young
i dont think people in their twenties should be considering facelifts
but there are other procedures that make sense
young patients with premature aging can consider
blepharoplasties, browlifts, fat grafting, fraxil, fillers
Web reference: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8zP-2KGT6g
Give your skin time to adjust and Consider Facial Volumizers
It is difficult to imagine that you would be a candidate for a facelift or other surgical methods at your age. Once you have reached your goal weight, allow your skin some time to adjust. Start a medical grade skin care regimine in the meantime to help your skin snap back into shape. Also, drink lots of water to stay hydrated. Quite possibly you may want to consider Scupltra or another injectable filler to add volume to your cheeks to give you a more youthful, rested look.
Best of luck to you.

Sun Life Building : Michelin's recommendations
This magnificent Beaux-Arts edifice (1913), constructed of steel sheathed in white granite and adorned with colossal colonnades on its four façades, occupies the entire east side of Dorchester Square. Headquarters of the Sun Life Insurance Company, the building could accommodate 2,500 employees and was touted as the "tallest building in the British Empire." Its construction and subsequent expansions (1923-1933) contributed to Montreal's status as Canada's most important financial city during those years. During World War II, the British government stored its Treasury bonds and gold reserves in this building. Today it houses the Sun Life administrative headquarters and other prestigious insurance and brokerage firms.

After 5Stockmen and other livestock producers prepare for follow-through legislation after North Dakota's Measure 5 failed.
By: Mikkel Pates, Agweek
FARGO, N.D. — The long-time chairman of the North Dakota Senate Agriculture Committee says he expects to be a prime sponsor of legislation that follows up on the failed Measure 5 vote that would have made some forms of animal cruelty a felony in North Dakota.
State Sen. Tim Flakoll, R-Fargo, says he and key leaders from both parties — urban and rural, east and west in the state — will be involved.
"I think people wanted something to happen" but "felt there were better options than Measure 5," Flakoll says, reflecting on the vote. He acknowledges he was surprised at how lopsided the vote was, considering how early momentum seemed to be on the side of the "yes" vote. The issue had heavy financial backing from the Humane Society of the United States.
The North Dakota Stockmen's Association spearheaded a coalition effort against Measure 5. It was defeated with a 65 percent "no" vote. It would have imposed a felony penalty for egregious abuse of cats, dogs and horses.
The North Dakotans for Responsible Animal Care coalition has been working on a bill for introduction in the 2013 Legislature. The group has been gathering support and input from law enforcement, attorneys and veterinarians, to make sure a bill that goes into the Legislature will be understandable and enforceable, Flakoll says. He says State Rep. Dennis Johnson, R-Devils Lake, who has been chairman of the House Agriculture Committee, will also be a sponsor, as well as Rep. Lois Delmore, D-Grand Forks.
Flakoll says if the measure had passed on Nov. 6, he would have been reluctant to introduce new legislation on grounds that it would seem to be working against the will of the people. But because of the vote, he thinks legislation is appropriate. He expects proponents of Measure 5 will come and testify.
Something better
Flakoll, who is provost of the Tri-College University, based in Fargo, was an animal scientist at North Dakota State University from 1984 to 1995, where he worked in care of beef cattle and horses for the university and assisted with research and teaching. He says he voted against the measure on grounds that he wanted "an opportunity to do something significantly better and more relevant in terms of common problems" in animal care. He says the details of the bill are still being developed.
Sheyna Strommen, communications director for the stockmen's association, says she doesn't think the heavy thumping of the measure will lessen interest in a 2013 bill.
"This group … had always planned on coming back and sitting down at the table after the last (legislative) effort didn't go through," she says. Strommen notes that the Senate in 2011 unanimously supported the study resolution, but that the idea lost by a vote of 36 to 56 in the House.
"That vote was closer than what it was made out to be," Strommen says. "I don't think that hindered our resolve to come back and take a look at this issue. There's got to be something that happens this time."
Strommen notes the measure prevailed in only two counties. Yes votes exceeded no votes in Grand Forks county by only 600 votes and the issue prevailed by only 50 votes in Sioux County. "All the other counties in the state voted no, resoundingly," Strommen says.
A Mason-Dixon poll conducted by NBC News had the measure prevailing. "It had us opposite — 60-30," Strommen says. "We had a great grassroots effort — the North Dakota Stockmen, a lot of other animal stewards, members through the Farm Bureau, the Farmers Union — others stepped it up, talking about why this issue was important to them. I think they talked to their friends and family, and helped us get some traction."
The issue was fronted by veterinarians — mostly female — on both sides.

"Nightline" asked Bartle about tax revenue losses from the businesses, which contribute an estimated $4 million in state taxes annually.
He said that in the "world of reality," not all of that tax revenue would leave the state. In his "perfect world," however, all the clubs would close.
Under the new law, women would still be able to dance -- just with a lot more clothes on, and a lot less interaction between them and the customers.
Sally, the dancer, said that interaction was important to the clubs' viability.
"It's very important," she said. "I mean, that's the biggest part of this club. A guy sees if he likes you or not, and then they invite you over and then that's when interaction starts, and that's where money comes into play. Because a lot of them want to help you, and they like your conversation, and they feel like this is your job and so they tip you, or they get a dance or two. So, if it was just strictly stage, then we wouldn't make money and the owner wouldn't make money. So, there wouldn't be no point in the clubs, any of the clubs, staying open anymore."
We asked Megan, another dancer, about Sen. Bartle's point that all of this is demeaning to women.
"To me, it isn't demeaning," Megan said. "To me, it is an opportunity to express myself. It's an opportunity for these girls to express themselves. It's an opportunity to make a choice for themselves. I don't think it's Sen. Bartle's position or place to make decisions for these women. I don't think it's his place to try to impose his morals and his beliefs on people in the state. The next thing you know, we'll be burning copies of 'Catcher in the Rye.'"
This bump-and-grind isn't quite "Catcher in the Rye," but there is a free speech argument to be made.
"The United States Supreme Court has said in the case of Renton v. [Playtime theaters] that nudity can be free expression," First Amendment attorney Jon Katz said. "When you require a person to cover themselves from the waist down, when you require them to cover themselves from the breasts down, except for the cleavage, you're censoring their body. You're censoring their breasts."
Dick Bryant plans a lawsuit based not on the First Amendment but on a possible procedural misstep. He said Bartle's bill did not include an accurate economic impact statement, which the state constitution requires. The argument could get the whole thing thrown out.
"If Sen. Bartle says there is no significant impact, than he's just wrong," said Bryant. "The economic impact statement that was attached to the bill said there was less than $100,000 in actual lost revenues. We know from a sampling from the businesses that the numbers are way over that."
Bartle disagreed.
"If you look at the overall economic impact," he said, "it's infinitesimally small. So that to me is not a highly credible argument."
Megan foresaw broader economic fallout if the new rules take effect.
"I think the effect will really cause even larger problems in the economy of the state of Missouri, and it's not like we have much room for error here," she said. "You know, we're running things very tight in the state financially, and to put more people out of work, you're just begging people to go on state support, which is eventually going to hit every man. ... The trickle-down will hit everybody's pockets."
Bartle said the economy could take it.

The Washington Post this morning has a long profile of Gen. Keith Alexander, director the NSA, and it highlights the crux – the heart and soul – of the NSA stories, the reason Edward Snowden sacrificed his liberty to come forward, and the obvious focal point for any responsible or half-way serious journalists covering this story. It helpfully includes that crux right in the headline, in a single phrase:
For NSA chief, terrorist threat drives passion to "collect it all," observers say
What does "collect it all" mean? Exactly what it says; the Post explains how Alexander took a "collect it all" surveillance approach originally directed at Iraqis in the middle of a war, and thereafter transferred it so that it is now directed at the US domestic population as well as the global one:mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman""> .no legal authority for the NSA to do this. Therefore:
breaking the law", at least when it comes to talking about powerful DC officials (in Washington, only the powerless are said to have broken the law, which is why so many media figures so freely call Edward Snowden a criminal for having told his fellow citizens about all this, but would never dare use the same language for James Clapper for having lied to Congress about all of this, which is a felony). That the NSA's "collect it all" approach to surveillance has no legal authority is clear:
NSA documents we've already published demonstrate that the NSA's goal is to collect, monitor and store every telephone and internet communication that takes place inside the US and on the earth. It already collects billions of calls and emails every single day. Still another former NSA whistleblower, the mathematician William Binney, has said that the NSA has "assembled on the order of 20 trillion transactions about US citizens with other US citizens" and that "estimate only was involving phone calls and emails."
The NSA is constantly seeking to expand its capabilities without limits. They're currently storing so much, and preparing to store so much more, that they have to build a massive, sprawling new facility in Utah just to hold all the communications from inside the US and around the world that they are collecting – communications they then have the physical ability to invade any time they want ("Collect it all, tag it, store it. . mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman""> focusing on the substance of these revelations – rather than the trivial dramas surrounding the person who enabled us to know of all this – and discussing why those revelations are so disturbing. Perhaps US media figures can now follow that example.

Why Think About Compliance?
In our first webinar of the "Finding Your Markets" series, we discussed selling to grocery stores.
Farms accessing these and other large markets must follow many rules and regulations. Since we've been getting a lot of questions lately about what compliance issues farms need to consider, we decided to tack on one more webinar to this "Finding Your Markets" series.
The Compliance Webinar will discuss what compliance issues apply to your farm, what you need to prepare, and how to think strategically about compliance.
Watch the Recorded Webinar
And check out this Live Sales display in the Fort Collins, CO Whole Foods Market below!
Compliance Requirements vary by market
Many markets, such as CSAs and Farmers' Markets, do not need any official certifications for you to access. Regardless, it is important to follow Good Agricultural Practices (GAP). Dr. Nate Storey will discuss the components of GAP and standards, what your farm always needs to follow, and what your farm sometimes needs to follow based on market.
Official Inspections and Procedures
What does it mean when your farm is being inspected? Who conducts the inspections? What are they looking for, and how can you prepare?
Inspections can be daunting, but with the right preparation, your greenhouse will breeze through. We will talk about the inspection process, how to create good logs, and what to keep for inspectors.
For example, tracking your pesticides and treatments is essential. Your workers must abide by sanitary standards, so you need to have a plan for employee training, tracking, and illness reporting.
Think Strategically About Compliance
Minimizing your compliance cost requires you, the farmer, to think strategically. If harvesting cut greens requires a certified kitchen in your state, should you consider selling standard heads of lettuce instead? Dr. Storey will discuss what you should consider before entering the market and the benefits of using ZipGrow towers for live sales.

Disney denies lobbying India
How do you feel about the possibility another Disney park in India? Please discuss the article here.Disney on Sunday declined to say whether it wants to build a theme park in India, but denied a newspaper report in Hong Kong that it lobbied the Indian government on the matter.
The South China Morning Post reported Sunday that The Walt Disney Co. has asked Indian authorities for land for a park site.
"Disney has approached us for land outside Delhi to build a theme park. The company is very upbeat about the project. Its top officials are lobbying hard to wangle a very, very big plot," the Post quoted an unidentified official at India's Urban Development Ministry as saying.

Streaming or downloading? which one uses more bandwidth?
so when your streaming or downloading, which one uses more or less bandwidth?
Most Helpful Opinion
High quality streaming, like Netflix, uses a lot of bandwidth.
In fact, Netflix now consumes a very significant portion of all bandwidth in the U.S.
This is the main reason that companies like Comcast and other providers are trying to cap bandwidth usage. They didn't really care until Netflix came along, and of course they also don't like the fact that Netflix competes with them for selling content.
In comparison to Netflix usage, the people who download files with BitTorrent and other file sharing services don't use nearly as much bandwidth in total. This is not to say that they couldn't be using as much bandwidth (although peer-to-peer technology, which is commonly used for downloading, is limited by the fact that the uploaders don't have the resources to deliver as much bandwidth as Netflix).
Also, if the question you're asking is if you were to stream a movie or download one of similar quality, which would use more bandwidth...
Well, the streamed one would probably use more bandwidth, because it can't use the same kinds of compression that a movie you download can. A movie that you would download before watching can (at least in theory) use very high levels of compression and less error correction (which takes additional bandwidth) than a movie you'd stream.
What Guys Said 6
Don't listen to the anonymous guy who said that streaming uses more bandwidth. He's comparing apples and oranges - infinite stream (e.g. watching a TV channel online) and finite file download (e.g. downoading a movie).
To really answer the question you have to compare the same thing. So let's say it's a movie, the same movie. In that case it depends on the speed that the website is willing to offer you, but most of the times download is faster, which means it uses more bandwidth for a shorter period of time. Whereas streaming uses less bandwidth for a longer period of time. In the end you will download the same amount of data, since we're talking about the same movie.
There are other things that can influence the answer. For example, if you're downloading a torrent the speed will depend on how many people are sharing it, their connection speed etc.
Depends on the file you are downloading but a stream is a more consistent transfer rate and lasts as long as the stream. Downloading only goes on for as long as the file goes. So Streaming.
so streaming uses more bandwith?

Just five years from now, going to the dentist could be a very different experience, involving laser drilling, light-activated antidecay chemicals and fillings made of artificial bone. More radically, it may even be painless, without injections and the terrifying sound of drilling.
Gavin Pearson, a reader in biomaterials and a practising dentist at the Eastman Dental Hospital in London, says that in the future, decay inside teeth could be reached by drilling tiny holes through their sides with lasers. Speaking at a conference in London on nanotechnology in medicine and the biosciences, he described how the holes could afterwards be plugged with a ceramic called hydroxyapatite, whose structure is identical to bone and the dentine in teeth.
None of the current techniques for filling teeth are very effective. To use amalgam, the most common filling, a fairly large hole must be made in the tooth to anchor it and give ...

Distillers grain prices spikeSince late last summer, corn prices have fallen dramatically, but distillers grain prices have not. "While corn prices at South Dakota ethanol plants have dropped $1.50 per bushel since Aug. 2, dried distillers grains plus solubles (DDGS) prices have actually increased by $1.05 per ton," says Darrell Mark, adjunct professor of economics at South Dakota State University.

Saskia Marie was born on March 14 :)
Her birth was a real wonderful surprise. She is our first baby and was born into daddy's arms 20 minutes before midwives arrived.
We planned a home birth. I mentioned to my midwife and her apprentice that quite a few mama's babies on this board were born faster than their midwives could arrive. The midwife said those mamas must've had multiple babies, and anyway it's rare. If that happened than she would walk papa through delivery. She said "Basically, don't touch the cord and keep baby warm."
My body was warming up for labor for almost a week. My water broke around 1 am, and the waves came on strong right away. We called the doula and asked her to come over. She didn't.
Minor discomforts became intensely irritating. Darling did everything to make me comfortable, but one rice sock burned in the microwave and the house stank of burnt popcorn. I lost one slipper and the cold hardwood floor felt awful. The room was felt suffocatingly hot and stuffy. We cracked the window, and it became too cold. We had to figure a way to deal with it, because the doula wasn't coming until l needed her for real. This doula was our hypnobirthing teacher, and I didn't practice any of her lessons and thought "okay, well this is embarrassing. I am being a total wimp and have no one to blame but myself for skipping practice. I better get it together, cuz it'll get way more intense and last a long time, and so I better learn to deal with this early part real well before I call her again."
I put on a diaper so I could do what I needed without inhibitions. (BTW - diapers are the best advice ever from that home-birth tips thread. Thank you all who suggested it!) We brought in the birth ball, and a little bottle of my favorite nostalgic pine essential oil. I tried to remember active birth labor positions that open you up faster. So I either sat on the ball, or on all fours in bed and squealed and tensed up through the waves. Jason reminded me how to breathe, and tried to guide me to meditate/relax. His lessons got me real high on oxygen and relaxed between rushes, but during rushes I would stop breathing and just squeal and tense up in whatever ways felt most comfortable. Between rushes I would breathe, or we talked, or kissed. It was a good time.
After abour 4-4.5 hours of this, I felt I needed to use the toilet and rinse myself off to freshen up. I got on the toilet and felt a rubbery sack, which I couldn't believe was the baby. I thought it was some other part of labor that I hadn't heard about. Jason called the midwife and told her that the baby was coming. Still in disbelief, I got in the shower to rinse myself and felt the urge to push. I got out of the bath tub and Jason received the babe. His doula friend and I had both asked him to be ready to receive the babe, just in case, so he had watched a few videos. That's the only birth homework he'd done. We hired a doula, so he didn't do his birth partner homework at all, except coming to hypnobirthing class.
Babe was born painlessly even though I'm 5'3, she's 9.5 pounds. Maybe the adrenaline blocked the pain. I felt some stretching, nothing intense.
The midwife got on the phone immediately after Saskia was born. Saskia wimpered but didn't cry, so the midwife instructed us to keep her warm and put her head below her bum, to let fluid drain. Saskia did get pretty chilled because she was born in our cool bathroom, and stayed there with me for 20 minutes without a heating pad til the midwives arrived. Took her about 2 hours to warm up tp 98F.
Saskia turned 2 weeks old on Friday. She is the sweetest, peaceful little girl. Today we sat on the porch and listened to the rain. Now she is asleep beside her daddy, who is in love with her. She's a real blessing. Now I see why we get presents on our birthday - because our birthday was a present to our parents and those who love us :)
Beautifully written! I have had two accidentally unassisted births and I count them both as blessings.
Married to my best friend, mama to two boys (12/5/07, 2/12/10) and a sweet little girl (5/2/13).

|On the planet Varos, prisoners and guards alike are subject to severest forms of punishment, which are then broadcast to the masses as entertainment. For the Doctor, Varos is the only hope for him to locate the rare mineral Zeiton-7 to power his ailing TARDIS. Arriving on Varos, he and Peri are soon caught up in events beyond their control. Freeing the rebel leader Jandar (Jason Connery) and incurring the wrath of the sinister alien Sil are just the beginnings of their ordeal. Hunted through the concealed terrors of the Punishment Dome, the Doctor becomes the subject of Varos's latest TV entertainment. This is one show where he may not survive beyond the cliffhanger.
Editor's NoteOn Varos, the oppressed citizens' primary entertainment are public executions, broadcast live. It is in this morally dubious environment that Doctor Who (Colin Baker) lands the Tardis, in search of Zyton-7 to jump-start the ship's transpower generator. A few missteps later, and the Doctor must face one of his most challenging and brutal adventures yet -- in the Punishment Dome of Varos.

Bird Watching Tours
Trekking in Cusco
Cusco Day Tours
This Tour in Peru combines the Salkantay Trek for 5days with the Jungle Tour to Manu National Park by bus in and out for 6days, making this tour in length 11 days
This Tour can change according the weather conditions, wishes of the group and according Machu Picchu and Huaynapicchu available rooms.
We leave Cusco very early, passing villages like Izcuchaca and Limatambo and then after 3 hours we arrive in Mollepata. After a light breakfast we start our long but slow walk till the sector of Silca where the lunch is waiting for us. After a short break we continue our walk in beautiful landscapes till Soraypampa, where we spend our first night.
The sunrise is impressing, when the majestic snowy-peak of Salkantay is the first thing we see after getting up. At 7:00a.m. we have a breakfast and then we start our walk, which will take 7-8 hours today. Where we can contemplate clear different ecological levels, and entering in kind of canyon which takes us till the foot of Salkantay. After three hours walk we have our Lunch, then we continue till the pass of Salkantay (4.600mas.) from where we descend and contemplate the beginning of the forest. This day we reach Collpapampa, where we spend the second night.
We start our walk with an exceptional view of the snow-peak Salkantay (6271masl). Then we descend till a riverbank where we have a delicious lunch and continue our walk through the cloud forest where we have the opportunity of seeing how the environment changes, passing from mild to hot. In the afternoon we arrive in La Playa where we camp.
This day we take an interesting way which takes us along the Inca trail till we reach hydroelectric where we take our lunch and in the afternoon we get in to a train which takes us to Aguas Calientes, where we accommodate ourselves in a beautiful hostal.
This day we go by bus or walking to Machu Picchu where our guide tells us in three hours about the times and history of Incas, when we have the opportunity to appreciate Machu Picchu in all its splendor. In the afternoon we return to Aguas Calientes to take a train. Then, in Ollantaytambo we change to a bus which takes us to Cusco.
The first day of our adventure into the Jungle of Manu, we will pick you up around 5:00 AM from your hotels in Cusco, using the service of our private transport. The first part of our excursion will take us through the majestic Andean mountains. Afterwards, we will visit the town of Huancarani which contains the funeral towers of Ninamarca, a cemetery of the Lupaca Pre –Inca Culture, which we will visit briefly on our way to Paucartambo, which is known as the folkloric capital of the district of Cusco. In the face of modern times, this small colonial pueblo has managed to hold on to its rich tradition for centuries upon centuries. At mid-day we will arrive at the entrance of Manu National Park and access to one of the most protected natural areas in South America. We will continue on in our private transport down a dirt road and on through the thick fog from which this section of the forest takes it name. Eventually we will arrive at the home of the exotic Peruvian National Bird, the "Cock of the Rock", where it is known to gather with others of its kind for some sort of social gathering that seems reminiscent of a large courtship. You will find that this is quite an amazing spectacle complete with an impressive array of sounds and colours that can only be found in the jungle. For our first night, we will stay in the beautiful Pilcopata Lodge, where we will arrive at approx. 5:00 p.m.
After eating our breakfast we continue the tour by bus going through the high forest arriving to Atalaya which is found next to Madre de Dios River (700 meters over the sea).we will pass by Alto Madre de Dios river whit its relatively clean waters to enter the clay laden waters of the Manu River. With a brief stop at the park ranger station at Limonal to present our permits we travel for about five hours up the Manu. Beaches, especially in the dry season, are loaded with nesting birds and feeding Herons, Egrets, Orinoco Geese, Terns and Skimmers to name a few. Some beaches will host sunning White and Black Caimans (South American relatives of the Alligators) and breeding Side-necked Turtles. Hundreds of Sand-colored Nightjars roost during the day on logs and beaches and there is a chance of encountering a sunning Jaguar - the worlds third largest cat. In 1999 one in three of our trips saw Jaguar in Manu. We will see some species of primate on this river trip, possibly Red Howler Monkeys or the smaller Squirrel Monkeys. After having lunch by the river we arrive at our Safari Camp near the lake of Cocha Salvador. We'll have the afternoon to explore some of the trails through the pristine rainforest in the area. A visit to the lake of Cocha Otorongo is planned, where observation piers and a 20 meter observation tower in the rainforest canopy overlooking the lake are available for observing wildlife. We will also be on the lookout for a large family of Giant Otters that inhabit this lake. Before or after dinner an optional excursion into the forest at night is available with your guide in search of nocturnal creatures. The lakes are full of eye-shine of the large Black Caiman and if we are lucky we may encounter an Olingo Kinkajou or even an Ocelot on the trails. Certainly the night-time noise of tree frogs and insects in the forest is an experience not to be forgotten. Night at Casa Matshiguenka lodge, there are flush toilets and shower facilities.
Today we will start with a long walk of some three or four hours, from the banks of Manu River to Otorongo lake, here we will climb a 15m high observation tower, from where birds such as the exuberantly feathered and primitive Shansho (Hoatzin) can be seen, as well as monkeys feeding on fruits and several species of flowers and brightly-colored butterflies. We will then return to our camp by canoe to enjoy a delicious lunch. The afternoon will be dedicated to exploring Salvador Oxbow lake and the surrounding area aboard our catamaran, from which will be able to observe the mega diversity attracted by this oxbow lake, including Black Caiman, White Caiman, a family of Giant Otters and waterfowl. Return to the lodge in the evening.
Early in the morning we will have another chance to go for a nature walk or one more visit to the oxbow lake and hear choirs of birds defining their territory in song. As the sun rises, the eastern sky changes to a pale yellow and we will be able to see falcons or other predatory birds patiently searching for prey from the treetops. After lunch we will board our boat again and head downstream towards Boca Manu but this time just floating with out the engine in order to have the opportunity to observe with plenty of time this mighty and diverse environment. Arriving at Boca Manu we will visit the native community of the Matshiguenka and Yine ethnic group; also we will visit their botanical garden of medicinal plants and share their activities.
In the morning we will go to the airfield at Boca Manu, where we will say goodbye to those passengers who opted to return to Cusco by plane. After that we will sail Alto Madre de Dios up river to the port of Atalaya (the place from where we started our trip by boat), after reach it we will drive to Pilcopata lodge where we are going to spend our last night in the jungle of Manu National Park
This morning will be our last opportunity to visit the Cock-of-the-Rock lek where we will have a last opportunity to see these colorful birds displaying. After breakfast our bus will take us back to Cusco, arriving in the afternoon.
*** The lodge our groups stay at inside the Manu Biosphere Reserve zone is owned and managed by the local native community so by booking our tours you are helping to support the local native community and people.

'Zero Dark Thirty' releases final trailer following Golden Globes nominations
Hot off its four Golden Globes nominations, the final trailer for Kathryn Bigelow's "Zero Dark Thirty" has been released. The video offers the best look yet at a movie that's sure to be one of the main Oscar contenders this year.
"Zero Dark Thirty" comes out in limited release next week and in a wide release on Jan. 11. Though the hunt for Osama bin Laden was well documented in the media, this "reported film" as screenwriter Mark Boal likes to call it tells the inside story of a CIA operative played by Jessica Chastain who helped discover one of the major clues that led to the discovery and then murder of bin Laden. Like "The Hurt Locker" before it, this film offers an unflinching take on what came after the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001.
It's interesting that the trailer chooses to start with a look at one of the controversial interrogation scenes that have become a topic of major discussion before the film has even hit theaters. Clearly director Bigelow isn't scared of facing the subject dead-on, as she stated during a recent press conference.
"They were difficult to shoot, those sequences," she said of the torture scenes early in the film. "I wish it was not part of our history, but it was."

The magic and clamour of E3 may be over for another year, but there's still plenty to be excited about on the Aussie software release front. Kicking things off Down Under is Nintendo's Super Mario Galaxy 2, the sequel to 2007's galactic platformer that sees players take control of a mobile planet called Starship Mario and embark on a wide variety of challenging puzzles in the hunt for star bits. To celebrate the game's Aussie release, Nintendo will host a hugging competition at the Swanston Street EB Games store this Thursday in Melbourne, where the publisher will try to beat the current world record for the most hugs by a mascot character by asking gamers to hug Mario as many times as possible during the game's official launch. Super Mario Galaxy 2 received a perfect 10 score from GameSpot and will be released this Thursday, July 1, on the Wii.
Magic fans can also rejoice this week with the release of Traveller's Tales' Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4. The block-tastic adventure will see players guide Harry, Ron, and Hermione through their formative years at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Unlike in previous Lego titles, the emphasis here will be on collecting and exploring, as well as casting a variety of spells that players must unlock as they progress through the game. Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4 is coming to the PS3, Wii, Xbox 360, DS, PSP, and PC this Wednesday, June 30.
Those with a hankering to shoot something will get their chance when Activision releases the sci-fi first-person shooter Singularity this week. Developed by Wisconsin-based Raven Software on Epic Games' Unreal Engine 3, the shooter combines gun-toting action with time-bending supernatural powers that will allow players to go back and forward in time and manipulate gravity. Singularity is out on the PS3, Xbox 360, and PC on Wednesday, June 30.
Finally this week, Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2011 is arriving on the PS3, Xbox 360, and Wii this Thursday, July 1. The game will feature the Ryder Cup tournament for the first time in the franchise's history, as well as a 24-player online multiplayer mode.

A brand-new international production from award-winning performance company Station House Opera.
AboutInstallation open Wednesday-Saturday 11am-5pm (free) Performances on Thursday, Friday, Saturday at 7.30pm (Tickets £12/ £8 booking required: http://www.artsadmin.co.uk/events/3445 ) An installation and performance that uses telematics and live video streaming to dissolve creative public spaces in London and Berlin, bringing people from both cities into dynamic connection. Merged and overlaid, people and objects find they are both one thing and another, sometimes dissolving together to make a third, in a disconcerting, arresting and occasionally hilarious meditation on the instability of culture and identity. Dissolved is presented for three weeks during March. By day the installation is open for visitors in London and Berlin (Wednesday Saturday, 11am-5pm) to explore the transformed spaces with their international counterparts. Each evening the installation is brought to life again at 7.30pm when visitors find their place, merging with the audience gathering in Berlin to watch a group of three performers in both locations create a parable for our globalised times. Dissolved is a collaboration between Station House Opera, Berlin-based artists Florian Feigl and Christopher Hewitt, with Beaconsfield and Sophiensà ¦le, produced by Artsadmin.

Radiation therapy uses high doses of radiation to destroy cancer
cells. Ultrasound is used to guide the placement of radioactive beads or
needles (brachytherapy) directly into the cancerous tissue.
The radioactive beads are left in place and gradually decay,
releasing radiation at the site of the tumor over a few days or weeks.
Ultrasound uses reflected sound waves to produce an image of organs
and other structures in the body. For this procedure, gel or oil is applied to
the skin to help transmit the sound waves. A small handheld instrument called a
transducer is passed back and forth over the area of the body being examined.
The transducer sends out high-pitched sound waves (above the range of human
hearing) that are reflected back to the transducer. A computer analyzes the
sound waves and converts them into a picture the doctor uses to guide the
placement of the beads or needles.
