Routing Information Protocol (RIP)
RIP (Routing Information Protocol) is a widely-used protocol for managing router information within a self-contained network such as a corporate local area network (LAN) or an interconnected group of such LANs.

RIP (Routing Information Protocol) is a widely-used protocol for managing router information within a self-contained network such as a corporate local area network (LAN) or an interconnected group of such LANs. RIP is classified by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) as one of several internal gateway protocols (Interior Gateway Protocol).
Using RIP, a gateway host (with a router) sends its entire routing table (which lists all the other hosts it knows about) to its closest neighbor host every 30 seconds. The neighbor host in turn will pass the information on to its next neighbor and so on until all hosts within the network have the same knowledge of routing paths, a state known as network convergence. RIP uses a hop count as a way to determine network distance. (Other protocols use more sophisticated algorithms that include timing as well.) Each host with a router in the network uses the routing table information to determine the next host to route a packet to for a specified destination.
RIP is considered an effective solution for small homogeneous networks. For larger, more complicated networks, RIP's transmission of the entire routing table every 30 seconds may put a heavy amount of extra traffic in the network.
The major alternative to RIP is the Open Shortest Path First Protocol (OSPF).

In Flash Professional CS5 Essential Training, author Todd Perkins explains the fundamentals of Flash Professional CS5, the industry standard for creating animations and interactive applications for the web, desktop, and mobile devices. This course starts with the basics, such as using the drawing tools to create simple animations, and progresses to automating animation with tweens and adding interactivity with ActionScript. This course also covers how to add sound and video to projects, enhance realism with effects like easing, and publish a project to a variety of platforms. Exercise files are included.
One of the most common tasks with ActionScript code is to add a hyperlink to a web page. In previous versions of Flash, this required typing a lot of code. In Flash CS5, it's really easy with the Code Snippets panel. You can add a link to a movie clip or button symbol. On the Stage, I have an instance of a button symbol. I prefer using button symbols over movie clips, because Flash automatically uses the hand cursor when you roll over a button symbol and that doesn't happen with a movie clip. So go to the first frame where your button appears, because if you go to a later frame, the interactivity won't happen until the playhead gets to that frame.
So you want to go to the first frame where your button appears and then select the button and open up the Code Snippets panel. In the Code Snippets panel, just double-click Click to Go to Web Page, which is inside of the Actions folder. So when you click this, you will see the message that the selected symbol requires an instance name. That's a name for an instance, which is placed in the text field at the top of the Properties panel. Since Flash is going to do this work for us anyway, I am just going to click OK. So in here, you will see that Flash writes the code for you.
In the commented area, you can read information about this ActionScript. In the Instructions area, you will see that you need to replace the URL, which by default goes to adobe.com, with the desired URL address. It also mentions to keep the quotation marks. So let's scroll down in our code and make the change. By default, text in ActionScript is green, so look for green text and change that URL to explorecalifornia.org. I am just going to change it after the www and the dot, so explorecalifornia.org.
And that's it. So just test this movie in the Flash Player and you can click on the button and see the website launch. So to add a link to a button in Flash, just select the button and then apply the Go to Web Page code snippet through the Code Snippets panel.

The course is an introduction to the fundamental concepts of Islam and the role that religious ideas and institutions play in Muslim communities around the world. Its main concern is to develop an understanding of the manner in which diverse notions of religious and political authority have influenced Muslim societies politically, socially and culturally. Through specific case studies of countries such as Saudi Arabia, Iran, Turkey, Egypt, Pakistan, and Afghanistan, the course considers the role played by ideologies such as jihad, colonialism, nationalism, secularism, and globalization in shaping the ways in which Muslims interpret and practice their faith today. The course briefly considers the contemporary situation of Muslim minorities in Europe and the United States. The course, through on-campus and on-line options, allows those enrolled to engage with students from all over the world.

A Key to the Series
Both Walter Breen and David Akers before him mentioned the existence of a small hoard of 1930-S eagles. Breen wrote in his 1988 Complete Encyclopedia: "For some decades one 1930-S turned up in the San Francisco area every three years, probably from a single roll." Such a roll would, of course, have long since been completely absorbed into the numismatic marketplace. Akers updates this mention in his more recent Handbook.
The typical 1930-S is much better struck than an average 1920-S, but it may still show weakness on the Indian's hair under the headdress and on the eagle's hind leg. The present piece offers gleaming luster throughout, with yellow-gold and orange-gold areas predominating amid glints of deeper color in the headdress tips. Minor strike softness appears on the Y of LIBERTY, as often seen, and on the high points of eagle's trailing leg. Tiny ticks on the base of Liberty's neck, a couple on the cheek, and on the reverse high points, none significant, preclude an even finer grade. Census: 39 in 64, 19 finer (9/09).

Entering last Saturday's date at fellow MAC struggler Ball State , Eastern Michigan had lost 18 straight games, the second-longest losing streak in the nation. Second-year head coach Ron English 's record at the EMU helm? You guessed it, 0-18. And with the Eagles down 21-0 in the second quarter on the road, it looked like 0-19 was fast approaching.
That's when Eagle quarterback Alex Gillett went to work. He would finish with 414 total yards (189 rushing, 225 passing), driving EMU into overtime tied at 35, and then he did this:
That's tight end Ben Thayer who appears to nearly pay for his game-winning catch with his life, but I don't think he minds too much.
But even as you watch EMU celebrate, remember that when an 18-game losing streak ends, that means another team has just lost to a team that came in on an 18-game losing streak. No, really, remember that. And that the pain of that fact probably wounds even more deeply when that team rampaged through a 12-0 regular season just two seasons ago and has gone a miserable 4-17 since with losses not only to EMU but FCS teams New Hampshire and Liberty. Just ask a Ball State fan, like Alan of Ball State fan blog Over the Pylon :
After each and every loss since this blog was started back in 2008 we've implored people to stay positive. We've begged people to not give up. We've assured folks that better days were coming. Today, all that positivity, all that fear calming, all that hope and optimism for this program in the near future appears for naught. I'm not sure what rock bottom is, but I fear that the Ball State football program is venturing dangerously close to it ...Alan certainly doesn't find that life vest in BSU head coach Stan Parrish ; after two years in charge of the Cardinals, the one-time Kansas State head coach has compiled an unbelievable 6-46-1 all-time record as a Division I head coach.
The box score and recap for this particular contest is equal parts confusing and humiliating. EMU outplayed the Cardinals in nearly every facet, from time of possession to total yards ... To have a winless team mired in a significant losing streak rack up a 490-243 yard advantage is absolutely ridiculous ...
I never thought I would be saying this again after 2008 and the magical undefeated season we witnessed, but there is nothing positive to take away from this game and nothing that I can point to as a life vest in this abysmal era of failure and disappointment.
It's a portrait of a program suddenly awash in misery as abject as EMU's joy was, er, joyous. Even at the fringes of FBS football, every emotional high --no matter how high -- still has its corresponding low.
HT: Pre-Snap Read , who points out via Twitter that EMU's happiness isn't likely to be long-lived; in the past decade, the Eagles have never won three games in a row and won two in a row only five times.

N E W P O R T R I C H E Y, Fla. — Barry Colbert had had a few too many drinks, police say, so he decided to let his son drive. Unfortunately, the boy is 7 years old.
The child sailed the manual-transmission 1988 Mercury Tracer through a stop sign and rear-ended another vehicle, police said. The car also did not have its lights on.
"The father was in the front seat with the child," said Pasco County Sheriff's Department spokesman Jon Powers. "He apparently allowed the child to occasionally drive the vehicle as a reward for being good."
"Some kids play with dolls," Colbert told the St. Petersburg Times. "My kid wants to drive."
When sheriff's deputies arrived on the scene they found Colbert behind the wheel, trying to back away from the accident, Powers said. They smelled alcohol on his breath and performed field sobriety tests on him, which he failed, he added.
Colbert won't be the only one facing charges stemming from the incident, which occurred last Friday night.
"We intend to charge the 7-year-old for driving without a license, driving without headlights and running a stop sign," Powers said.
The father faces charges of driving with a suspended license, driving while intoxicated, and allowing an unlicensed driver to operate the vehicle.
"It was a terrible decision for a couple of reasons," Powers said. "A, it's illegal. B, it's extremely dangerous."
Colbert, however, defended his actions.
"I'm not irresponsible," the 38-year-old father told the Times. "I just had a few beers."
He said the his son's go-cart had been stolen recently, and that he had let the boy drive various vehicles on a Kentucky farm without any problems.
"When you're in rural Kentucky, it's all farm," Colbert said. "There's no police out there to tell you that you can't do this and you can't do that."
Pants on Fire T A L L A H A S S E E, Fla. — Police say they didn't need a smoking gun to catch 30-year-old Carl Franklin. They used his smoking pants instead.
Franklin's slacks caught fire on Sunday night as he was fleeing police. He had apparently been smoking a Newport cigarette, which he put in his pocket as he ran, police said.
The still-burning cigarette ignited the man's pants, sending plumes of smoke back toward Tallahassee Police Officer Seth Stoughton, who was chasing him.
"We prepare for a lot of stuff, but I'd never expected to see the man's pants on fire," Stoughton told the Tallahassee Democrat. "His pocket was outlined in red, and it was clearly smoldering."
Stoughton had spotted Franklin standing by a fence, and believed the man was preparing to urinate. When he approached, Franklin took off running, said Officer Scott Hunt, a department spokesman.
Franklin continued to run, despite the flames, officials said. Eventually his pants fell to his ankles and he tumbled over. Stoughton tackled him and smothered the flames, even as Franklin punched and kicked him and tried to get away, the officer said.
Police say Franklin appeared to be intoxicated and smelled strongly of alcohol. He was charged with resisting arrest.
Shop Till You're Drop-Kicked
L O W E L L, Mass. — Police are calling it "check-out line rage."
According to authorities, 38-year-old Karen Morgan began shouting at the woman in front of her while waiting in the "12 items or less" line at the Market Basket grocery store last Sunday morning. She then allegedly attacked the woman outside.

How new sea cables are changing Nigeria's bandwidth market
It is over a year since two undersea cables landed in Lagos, arguably, West Africa's commercial capital and one of the major business hubs in Africa. The first to land, MainOne cable is promoted by a number of Nigerian investors with diverse entrepreneurial background s ranging from the financial to the technology sector. The Chief Eecutive Officer of MainOne Cable, Ms Funke Opeke, was before her new portfolio, the Chief Technical Officer of MTN Nigeria, the country's biggest mobile network of over 40 million subscribers.
Built with over $240 million, 'the 7000 kilometres fibre optic MainOne cable runs from Portugal to Nigeria and Ghana, and also branches out to Morocco, the Canary Islands, Senegal and Ivory Coast.' Quoting Reuters: "The MainOne Cable Company says it delivers more than ten times the broadband capacity of the South Atlantic Terminal (SAT)-3, Nigeria's sole existing undersea cable, and 20 times the entire satellite capacity of sub-Saharan Africa."
Globacom's international submarine cable, Glo-1 landed at about the same time as the MainOne cable in what has helped to drive competition and sweeten broadband access in a market where connectivity has been largely depended on very costly satellite infrastructure and the erratic WASC/SAT-3 cable owned by moribund state owned Telco, NITEL.
The 10,000 kilometres Glo-1 undersea cable worth some $800 million is promoted by Mike Adenuga's owned Globacom Limited with several landings in coastal cities across West Africa. Globacom is Nigeria's second biggest mobile network with over 30 million subscribers. Its landing in Lagos in 2010 joined the MainOne cable to expand the prospects for increased and cheaper bandwidth connectivity access?the major snag in the take off of several Internet-driven services whether in the health, education and financial sector among several others.
Crashing cost of access
Since the commercial launch of these two cables, prices of connectivity have crashed greatly and there is a more robust delivery of bandwidth like never before helping to drive new level of services that were once non-existent.
Take the increasingly popular BlackBerry (BB) services offered by all the four Global System for Mobile communications networks. There has been about 45 per cent cut in Internet costs through the BB window. These also apply to other forms of Internet access. In the last 10 months, BB tariff has crashed considerably from about $35 per month to about $20 per month whether on MTN, Globacom, Airtel or Etisalat network. This has helped to drive up the popularity of mobile Internet on all smartphones generally and BB services specifically.
Also, in the last 10 months, as recent research has shown, Nigeria is the largest market for smartphones and accounts for over 50 per cent of all smartphone sales on the continent in the last two quarters. This, no doubt, is as a result of the crash in Internet tariff.
The existing submarine cables in Nigeria carry an installed capacity of over 19.2 terabytes and over 340 gigabyte combined, a major increase in the size of the pipe available to drive bandwidth-dependent services. Already, the lower Internet tariff is being felt in the hinterlands as terrestrial infrastructure companies take advantage of the increased available bandwidth to install connectivity pipes and open up once un-served remote locations in several of Nigeria's state capitals including Abuja, the country's political capital.
BCN Limited, Phase One Limited and Layer 3 Limited – three backbone connectivity companies with heavy presence in Abuja are already leveraging on these new opportunities to take connectivity to towns and cities in northern parts of Nigeria's vast over 927, 000 square kilometre landmass. The immediate casualty of this development is satellite infrastructure providers all of which are foreign-based.
Both Glo-1 and MainOne cables are firming up their presence in Nigeria's booming oil and gas sector; Globacom is using its submarine cable to serve major oil companies and helping them to lower the cost of connectivity like never before. "Glo 1 has signed on a number of major oil companies in the past few months, signalling increasing preference for the cable as bandwidth provider of choice," according to a local news publication, the Nigerian Pilot. The list of customers includes: Shell Petroleum Development Company (SPDC), Total ELf, Chevron, Agip, Nigeria Liquefied Natural Gas (NLNG), Exxon Mobil and TransOcean. Hitherto, the major oil companies had to depend on satellite connectivity for major high-speed international bandwidth link that connects all their operation centres including remote locations in the Niger Delta creeks and corporate offices in Lagos and the United Kingdom.The soul of connectivity is undersea cables
"New analysis from Frost & Sullivan 'West African Broadband Market Tracker,' covering Nigeria, Cameroun and Cote d'Ivoire, finds that the market earned revenues of $929.9 million in 2009 and estimated this to reach $1.932 billion in 2016."The research stated that Internet Service Providers (ISPs) still remain the dominant players in the region, except for Nigeria where mobile broadband connections have outpaced fixed broadband connections. "In comparison to other countries, high investments are made in infrastructure development and broadband services present the highest areas for growth opportunities due to the decline in voice revenues," the report said."The analysts said these investments (in undersea cables) would unlock the constraints in the West African telecommunications market and catalyse the economic potential of the region. They stressed that a compelling opportunity exists to lower the restrictive cost of international telecommunications and significantly expand Internet access via submarine cable, which will lead to greater efficiency and more competitive business.""We see new and expansive growth prospects for ISPs who have to remodel their business offerings to reflect the new opportunities and trends," said the Chief Executive Officer of Lagos based ISP, Junisat, Gboyega Ojuri. General Manager of DCC Networks of Computer Warehouse Group, Mr Oladipo Raji, says Nigeria needs to step up on capacity utilisation of the cables. While there are exciting uptake of the privately-owned cable facilities, he sees explosive growth in months ahead through an expanding window for e-commerce, e-payment, e-learning, e-health, e-government and the likes.
Sierra Leone and the coming of fibre optic sea cables
What do all these hold for other West Africa countries? A bounty of change! Africa is set to experience its own bandwidth glut from years of bandwidth famine. That is why the expected landing of fibre optic sea cable in a country like Sierra Leone is bound to change for good the way business is done. Cost of access will crash and connectivity will become more readily available. It then means people who were once unconnected to the global knowledge space will now be able to expeience the unique leapfrogging that only ICT can bring.
The Internet will readily become avaibale in the pocket. Many people on the streets of Freetown need only have a smartphone to access the Internet at an affordable rate and experience the transforming power of ICT in the workplaces, homes, hospitals, banks, schools, farmlands and mining sites. Change is already in the offing for Sierra Leone. They only need to see what the coming of undersea fibre optic cable has done to Nigeria in only 12 months to have a taste of what is about to happen in the land of the Lion Mountains.

Day 2, Seeley Lake MT to Whitehall, MT
The morning started out as a crisp foggy morning, quickly clearing up as the sun rose with brisk temperatures in the 40's. We quickly hit the dirt and came across a tree trimming operation. This consists of an excavator type machine, but instead of the usual bucket shovel at the end it has a tree trimming attachment. The first one I passed was no big deal, as I just beeped my horn so he could stop for a moment while I rode by. The second one I passed was much scarier, not because of any close call, but because of what I saw. I passed in the same manor, beeping my horn so the operator could pause while I rode by, but this time I saw the other side of the trimming attachment (which meant no guards). To sum it up, I saw a bunch of high speed spinning blades about 15 feet away at head level. Whew. Anyhow, back on the road....
Flying through these dirt roads in the dense forest on a sunny but cool and crisp morning was truly beautiful and amazing. Tons of small squirrels kept darting across the road, reminding us of all the life in the woods surrounding us. We came across this cool small lake.
I started to experiment with self portraits while riding.
Kozy Korner...what a great name.
The terrain opened up for a bit....
We stopped for brunch in Lincoln Montana, which is where Theodore Kaczynski, better known as the Unabomber, used to live.
Jumping back into the mountains.
There are a lot of these small cabins, decaying slowly in the woods.
The road then followed a nice small creek through the hills.
We then came across Empire Mill, or at least what still remains.
This old mill used to crush ore in one of the mining operations in the area. Judging by the size of some of the tumblers, the boiler, and especially the stone walls still intact, this was pretty large.
Nice teeth.
A bit mangled.
I claim this.
I lost track of how many times we came across cows, and cattle guards.
A nice open meadow.
Another Great Divide mountain biker, one of three in this group.
Just north of Rimini MT, our GPS route led us into this closed road. Seems ok for the mountain bikers to use but we didn't want to risk it.
So we backtracked a few miles into Rimini and talked with a local who was doing some work in his small auto body shop. A very nice person, he was a local to the region and gave us some directions to get around the gate. Part of the mix up was that just south of the area is a superfund site for a mine cleanup project. The local was telling us that in Rimini the government had to clean up 4-6 feet of dirt across the whole town due to mining contamination. A stagecoach used to pass through this area and it was one of the wealthiest areas too, thanks to mining. I also liked his comment about how all the crazy and disturbed people that live in the middle of nowhere Montana are always the ones who aren't from Montana.
We found our way around and went over this earth dam.
Here is the sign from the Basin Creek Mine Superfund Closure.
Cruisin' along.
Butte Montana, once called The Richest Hill on Earth. There is some pretty good history here, all tied back to mining.
One of the main roads through Butte, Harrison Ave, turned out to be the most annoying place I've ever been to. While gassing up and resting, I saw countless motorcycles and open pipe pick up trucks going wide open up and down the road, over and over. One douche bag was even making multiple passes towing his speed boat around. This must mean two things...people are very bored here, and there must be a lot of idiots here too.
Trying to keep the chains in check, a restock of chain lube as well as engine oil was needed so we picked up some supplies at Two Wheelz in Butte. Mostly a dirt shop, the staff was friendly and they had a good stash of vintage dirt bikes on hand to look at. We then tried briefly to find a reasonable motel in Butte but everything was too pricey. Our plan was to continue south and grab the first camp site or cheap motel we found, though we knew finding a motel would be rare since we were headed into the mountains again. It was already 6pm too. The GPS did show one place called the Iron Wheel Guest Ranch in Whitehall Mt, which was only 10 miles or so off the route, so we decided to take a chance.
It turned out to be a great B&B. The owners were really nice and had a dinner option as well. Most of the other guests were there for horse riding and fishing. The husband of the owner couple is a big time hunter and takes people out for guided hunts, and is also a taxidermist. His shop had more skins then I had ever seen anywhere. Here is a bear he was working on for a client.
Name this animal?
I also forgot to add that they have bunnies EVERYWHERE. Turns out they got a few bunnies years ago for their kids, and well, the bunnies did what they knew best. A few get killed every now and then by natural predators, but for the most part there are always 10-20 visible bunnies hopping around the yard at any given time.

Hmm. You know, I do believe we passed you guys in Northern Colorado. I don't recall which day, but one morning passed what I thought was blue and white DR's headed south. Now that I read your report I think it must have been your Dad's XR that I mistook for a second DR.
I was first in line on a blue '08 with a yellow kayak bag on top of the luggage pile, and then it was a white '09 DR followed by a red KLR650.
Sorry we didn't get to speak. I'm enjoying your report.

BigDaveF (our KLR riding buddy) had trucked his bike out and stashed his truck at Grants at a storage facility. We, on the other hand, rode ours out and back. I'm all but certain that it took years off my life ...
If I ever do anything like that trip again I'll do it Dave's way.
Thanks again for your great report!

Great ride report
I did a ride (4000 miles) of some of the same place's as you right around the same time , only on a Harley . Started in Grass Valley Ca and went up though Lake Almanor and up though Eagle Lake then north in to Oregon and meet some friends on the Columbia River that I grew up with . They were all riding Harley's , that's why I road the Harley or I would of rather rode one of my dual-sport bikes . Then we did stayed in Seeley Lake MT too , behind the Motor Lodge you stayed at there was a campground .
Hope I added a pic of Lake Almanor with a friend who rode with me the first day on my BMW1100GS and me on my Harley.
Keep it coming !

Riding the bikes out and back to the ride may have taken some more time and wasted some tires, but it also made it feel more adventurous and did keep the costs down (50-60 mpg instead of 15 mpg from a truck) and reduce logistics (don't have to worry about parking the truck and getting back to it).

Actually, it was not unbearable and on the twisties it was a load of fun riding the DR. But as a Gold Wing owner I can also safely say there is no way to construe the DR as a super slab tourer.
Tire wise, we rode out on the stock tires and put on knobbies at Sliver City, NM. Keeping in mind that we got off at Yellowstone and then took in some other places on the way back, the D606's got us up the trail and all the way back home with rubber to spare. Prior to the trip I had read as much as I could about "which knobbies" and there is a lot of speculation around here that gets passed off as wisdom. BigDaveF's front Mefo was toast by the time he got back to Grants. At this moment my 606's have 4,150 miles on them and I think they would go another 1K on the street -- and who knows how much further if all they were rode on was dirt. A DR rider can't go wrong with the D606, IMHO.
Your photography is outstanding! What type of camera were you using?

My Dad and I went down a similar path, looking at the cost (in time and money) to truck/fly the bikes out, ride, and get them back. Way too much hassle. Plus it's cheating too!
In the end it was much more fun to have ridden them out, especially when Harley guys ask in absolute horror if we really rode those things across the country. I actually enjoyed riding the DR650 on long stretches of tarmac. Only issue is some extra engine vibs when I'm cruising at 70+ mph, but on the backroads and in the twisties it is a lot of fun and handles the curves with ease. This trip has made it my new favorite bike, due to its afford-ability and versatility.
Tires was initially a big battle, but we settled on D606's for a few big points - cheap, long lasting, and the knobs would give us an advantage in the rougher sections. I did consult this as a resource:
Camera is a Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS1.
It is the "older" version, with the TS2 being newer but the only big difference is the TS2 can handle 10m of submersion, while mine can handle only 3m. Yes, it is water proof, shock proof, and dust proof. After dragging my big Canon 40D on various motorcycling, backpacking, and rock climbing trips, the shutter broke and I said enough with hauling that chunk of glass and magnesium around. So I did a bunch of heavy research on weatherproof point and shoot cameras, bought a few, tested some out, and decided the Panasonic was the best ADV camera on the market. Below is a good reference. I also did buy the new Pentax W90 and wanted to love it, but the photo quality was terrible so I returned it (thank you Amazon.com). I should also add that the TS1/TS2 has a 28mm lens, which is one of the widest lenses you can get in an APS. There are 2 Canon's that have 24mm but they are not waterproof.
I love my TS1. It has great photo quality, good low light results, and can do 30-60 second exposures under a mode called "stary night". I really wanted to bring the DSLR to capture some amazing shots but I just didn't want to worry about shock to the camera from the rough roads as well as afternoon thunderstorms....and even if I did, how the hell would I pack it such that I could grab the camera and take a shot in 5 seconds?
I keep my TS1 in my Aerostich pocket with a lanyard around my neck. This allows me to grab the camera, while riding, and take a shot in less than 5 seconds. And if it rains, I keep snapping shots (water drops will collect on the lens though and make the picture look funny). Speed of accessibility is the most important part of picture taking, and this setup resulted in well over 1000 photos in 3 weeks of riding.
I also did take a few photos with my HTC Incredible, but that was so I could send updates from the road.

Shutter lag?
How is the shutter lag? I have an Olympus Tough 6000 which I miss a fair amount of shots because of the lag. I have it mounted on the handlebars using a RAM mount and have the camera on and simply put - it takes too long to shoot the picture. It also has a TAPTAP feature that is absolute annoying. It is going to get TAPTAP'd with a hammer soon.

There are lots of cameras with better response, but this one can get covered in sand, mud, and rinsed off in water, which sold me.

No one is as good at telling the world go to f— itself as Courtney Love. That seems to be the sentiment she's going for with her video for "You Know My Name," an extension of the sentiment in the song's lyrics.

Let me ask you a question. If I came to the UK and walked into a bar and told the people there that they need to adopt more American like laws, how long do you think I'd be sitting in that bar? If I got arrested in the UK and told the officer that "that's not how it works in the states" what would be the reaction? Morgan has stepped way over the line with his bullcrap and it's a joke that the man still has a tv show.

White Plains, NY (PRWEB) May 14, 2013
Alicare Medical Management (AMM) received the prestigious Case in Point Platinum Award for its diabetic management program during Dorland Health's 5th Annual Care Coordination Summit in Washington, DC. Case in Point Platinum Awards recognize professionals and organizations making significant headway to address the challenges impacting the U.S. health care system.
"We are proud to join the ranks of the distinguished and innovative companies nominated for the Platinum Award," says Claire Levitt, MS, AMM president. "This award represents the commitment and dedication of Alicare Medical Management to helping solve medical management challenges in health care – in this case, diabetes, one of the most prevalent and chronic conditions that affects the health of our nation."
As part of its "Getting Well, Staying Well" initiative, AMM developed and implemented the diabetic management program in conjunction with a trust fund client that covered a population suffering from a high rate of diabetes. The program allows the waiving of co-pays for diabetes medication as long as the patient sets and achieves goals with the case manager. Thanks to strong incentives, the client achieved a 60 percent enrollment rate of identified diabetics within the first year of the program and saw a 95 percent retention rate. As a result, 100 percent of enrolled clients met blood glucose monitoring compliance.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), diabetes impacts 25.8 million people, more than 8 percent of the entire U.S. population, and is the seventh leading cause of death in the United States. It is a major contributor to heart disease, stroke, kidney failure, limb amputations and blindness. The CDC estimates medical expenses for diabetics to be 2.3 times higher than medical expenses for those without the disease, and costs our nation $116 billion in direct medical ex

NEW YORK — Oprah Winfrey and former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton surprised Barbara Walters on Thursday as the legendary newswoman taped her final edition of "The View" to end a five-decade career on television.
Actor Michael Douglas, a friend and frequent subject for interviews by Walters, left, also dropped by for the tribute, which airs at 10 a.m. Friday on ABC.
Although she will retain a role as executive producer of the talk show she created 17 years ago, she is ending her daily on-air involvement, while limiting ABC News appearances to the occasional story or interview.

"I can't believe this day has come, and I can't believe it's for real," Clinton told Walters, 84, who began her career on NBC's "Today" in 1962, then came to ABC in 1976, where her many duties ranged from co-anchoring "20/20" to hosting scores of specials as well as "The View."

Walters brought the hour to a close with a heartfelt statement looking back with amazement on her career, then signing off with a pledge to "take a deep breath and enjoy my 'View.' "
But a more telling moment took place during a break, as the throng of women she had paved the way for posed with her for a group portrait. "I have to remember this on the bad days," Walters said, "because this is the best." The Associated Press

As per recent reports, it has been found that Anonymous, a hacking group, has taken the full responsibility for attacking the two technology trade association websites, US Telecom and TechAmerica.
The hacking group said that they have not attacked the websites without reason and have done it as both these websites were supporting a bill, which deals with cyber-security. It has been found that the attack was taken out yesterday when users started complaining that they were unable to log into the websites.
Some of the telecom companies being represented by the US Telecom are AT&T, Verizon, and CenturyLink and TechAmerica's includes members like IBM, Microsoft, and Apple. As soon as politicians got to know about the issue, they were of the view that the Cybersecurity bill will be introduced and that too as soon as possible.
It will help the private sector to remain safe from hackers like Anonymous and will also save them from advanced cyber threats. "These types of strong-arm tactics have no place in the critical discussions our country needs to be having about our cybersecurity, they just underscore the importance of them", said TechAmerica President Shawn Osborne. Both the websites said that their engineer teams have been working to restore the websites.

The fifth-generation (1996-2005) Volkswagen Passat was always a bit of a problem child for the German automakers and its vehicle owners. While it was both handsome and a pleasure to drive, it was afflicted by numerous mechanical maladies, including engine sludge and an issue with a heat shield that could contact the exhaust system and potentially trigger a fire in the engine compartment. In 2007 and 2008, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration conducted several investigations into th

Blyleven and Alomar ready for Hall
COOPERSTOWN, N.Y. Bert Blyleven knows what took him to where he's been and where he's headed - his heritage.
"I'm Dutch, I'm stubborn. I think it's the stubbornness, the consistency. You take the good with the bad," said the 60-year-old Blyleven, the first player born in the Netherlands to earn Major League Baseball's highest honor, election to the Baseball Hall of Fame. "I came up at a young age. I retired at an old age. I was one of only three pitchers to win a game before their 20th (birthday) and after their 40th. It's just loving a game that you felt that you could compete at the highest level."
Blyleven, who won 287 games in a 22-year major league career, will be inducted July 24 with infielder Roberto Alomar and front-office guru Pat Gillick.
"I'm going to be in awe," Blyleven said. "We all have dreams as kids. You don't know where it's going to head."
Also to be honored in a July 23 ceremony at Doubleday Field are: Dave Van Horne, longtime play-by-play man for the Montreal Expos and Florida Marlins, who will be given the Ford C. Frick Award for major contributions to baseball broadcasting; Philadelphia Daily News sports writer and columnist Bill Conlin, winner of the J.G. Taylor Spink Award for meritorious contributions to baseball writing; and Roland Hemond, who will receive the Buck O'Neil Lifetime Achievement Award.
The awards ceremony will feature a performance by singer/songwriter Terry Cashman, whose classic "Talkin' Baseball (Willie, Mickey and The Duke)" released 30 years ago paid homage to the three great New York center fielders of the 1950s.
Though he lost 250 games, Blyleven threw 60 shutouts (ninth all time) and logged 242 complete games, finishing his career in 1992 with 3,701 strikeouts (fifth all time). He also made 685 starts (11th all time), pitched 4,969 1-3 innings (14th all time), and was 3-0 in League Championship Series play and 2-1 in World Series games.
His sojourn was longer than most.
Born in 1951 in Zeist, Netherlands, his parents, Joe and Jenny, moved the family to Canada two years later.
"My dad's eventual goal was get to the United States, but it was hard back in the early 1950s," Blyleven said. "The Canadian government was looking for strong men to work on farms. Holland gave my parents $79 and we went to Canada."
The family stayed for four years before moving to Southern California, where Blyleven's uncle had settled. The Blylevens lived in the Los Angeles suburb of Paramount, then moved to Garden Grove when he was in third grade.
"The friends that I started hanging out with played Little League. I didn't know what it was," Blyleven recalled. "I started out as a catcher at about 10 years old. My manager I guess realized that I was throwing the ball back harder to the pitcher than he was throwing to me, so he said, `Would you like to pitch?' And I said, `Sure.' So I tried it and fell in love with it."

Chocolate For Your Soul with Sheri Rose Shepherd - Sunday, July 5, 2015
by Sheri Rose Shepherd
"Then the LORD God said to the woman,"What is this you have done?" The woman said, "The serpent deceived me, and I ate." — Genesis 3:13
Nothing tastes better than the victory of walking away from temptation. I'm praying for all of us to find great joy in a new way of eating and digesting truth. It's not surprising that food is such a big issue with women if you look at the first fall of man. It was a woman who had a craving and took the bait of Satan--and ate from a food God asked her not to eat. Too many times we set ourselves up to fall. I'm praying in Jesus' name that this time we will stay away from the things that tempt us to break our fast, so we will NOT fall. No food is worth the fall! When you have a craving today, I want you to call out to Christ to give you a craving for Him. I promise you it is worth laying down what you want in order to do the will of God.
I am praying and believing God for a beautiful break-through today as we discover the lies we've believed and the deceptions we allowed to creep into our hearts and our kitchens. If you are ready for real truth and more transformation from the inside out, watch the video below and let's laugh and learn to reject lies and return to the TRUTH!
God's Letter to You
I believe if The Lord was going to write you a personal letter about battles this life brings it may read like this....
My Princess Warrior,
Your inward battles, My Beloved, do not mean that you are weak. These battles exist because you are My warrior and My Spirit is inside of you fighting to help you do what is right. My Spirit can overcome any struggle, and My power is greater than any problem that you are facing right now. Do not beat yourself up, My Beloved. There will always be an inward battle. However I am bigger than your battle and I will give you victory, because My spirit lives in you. I know how hard it is for you to live a righteous life, that is why I sent My Son, Jesus. I don't want you to beat yourself up any longer for your inward battles. I want you to learn to surrender to My voice of conviction and correction, then free yourself by confessing your sin to Me. When you are weak call to Me and let Me be your strength. I am the only one who can carry you when you feel like you cannot carry on. I am here to help you become the woman you long to be and who I created you to be. We will work through this together and I will never give up on you no matter how long it takes for you to overcome your battle and surrender to Me.
Your Faithful Father
My Prayer for You
Dear God, I pray that Your Holy Spirit would reveal any lies from the enemy that Your daughter has believed. I pray that You would give her the mind of Christ that she would be able to discern the deception of the enemy. Give her a craving for truth. Give her a craving for the food that You have prepared for her to eat. Give her the fruit of the Spirit of self-control. In your name, Jesus, Amen.
Treasure of Truth
Inward battles don't mean you're weak... you're a Warrior fighting to do what is RIGHT!

Thankfully the baby seems to be fine, heart rate is good. She told me that I have a low placcenta and we should keep an eye out for that. Has anyone ever experienced that or heard of that before??

GLOBAL warming may be putting a freeze on Atlantic salmon sex. Fishing records from anglers on 59 Norwegian rivers show that more and more salmon are staying out at sea for two or more winters - instead of one - before migrating back upriver to mate.
The trend, spotted by Leif Asbjørn Vøllestad of the University of Oslo and colleagues, coincides with warming in the North Atlantic between 1991 and 2005 (Ecology and Evolution, DOI: 10.1002/ece3.337).
Salmon need to eat enough in the autumn for their gonads to mature the following spring. Temperature-driven changes in the food web mean fish may lack food at this critical time, forcing them to fatten up for longer before reproducing. Vøllestad says more time in predator-rich open waters may help explain their overall decline. On the upside, fish should be bigger when they swim upriver.

The Theory of the Moiré Phenomenon

moreThis book presents the most comprehensive and methodical work on the theory of the moire phenomenon, providing a full general-purpose and application-independent exposition of this fascinating effect. Based on the Fourier theory, it leads the reader through the various phenomena which occur in the superposition of repetitive layers, both in the image and in the spectral domains. The first chapters of the book present the basic theory, covering the superposition of monochrome, periodic layers. In later chapters, the theory is extended to the even more interesting cases of polychromatic moires and moires between repetitive, non-periodic layers. Throughout the whole text the book favours a pictorial, intuitive approach, which is supported by mathematics, and the discussion is accompanied by a large number of figures and illustrative examples. The prerequisite mathematical background is limited to an elementary familiarity with the Fourier theory. less

The perfect settingReviewed on 6/12/2013 Brandi L
Berry Hill Resort was the perfect setting for our wedding. Everything was beautiful and it made for gorgeous pictures. The onsite wedding coordinator, Rhonda, and her staff went out of their way to make everything perfect for us and our guests. In large part Rhonda read our minds and anticipated our needs before we could.
Gorgeous Venue!Reviewed on 8/16/2012 Amber F
This was my first pick for a venue, but I didn't think I could work it into my budget and still be able to invite everyone I wanted to. Well, after over at least a month of searching, I talked to Rhonda (the wedding coordinator at Berry Hill) and she worked out a budget that settled right into my budget, and we were able to serve everyone a plated dinner consisting of a sirloin steak, idaho and sweet potatoes, grilled asparagus, a delicious salad as a starter with rolls at every table! It was perfect! I believe in the final cost I went over budget by about $64, but I count that an accomplishment considering all the people I had growing the guest list for me! We hit a little snag in the planning when Rhonda called and told me she had accidentally scheduled a rehearsal for the same time in the same place as my wedding, but she worked it out and gave me an extra perk by allowing anyone to be present for our hour of hor dourves. Over all I was very satisfied with the location and the service, and I am glad I didn't settle elsewhere in all of my searching for the perfect venue!
Beautiful wedding spot and very easy to work with!Reviewed on 4/11/2011 Samantha R
We loved Berry Hill! It is beautiful and there staff is very accommodating. It is a little on the expensive side but I believe it was worth it. The food was EXCELLENT!!! And so much of it that no one went home hungry, they actually gave me some to take up to our room. They had a chief there that made the food, no buffet lines which I HATE!!! Of course you could have a buffet but it was so nice having a chef there. Overall it was a great experience and the hotel was very accommodating and very close so no one had to rent a car (almost all our guests were from out of state).
Out of curiosity, since you mentioned you are under your $10,000 budget, how many guests do you have?
Absolutely Amazing!Reviewed on 5/22/2014 Jessica G
I fell in love with Berry Hill before we ever visited. After we met with Rhonda and toured the property, I knew there was no turning back. Rhonda was so easy to work with- always quick to respond to my emails, thoroughly answering all of my questions each time. No detail was overlooked on our wedding day thanks to Rhonda! Our guests are still talking about the delicious food and the beauty of the property- even in February. Most ceremonies at Berry Hill are outdoors, but Rhonda and her team did an exceptional job flipping the banquet room during our cocktail hour from ceremony to reception venue. Exceeded all expectations! :)
Great place to stay.Reviewed on 10/21/2012 Nicole B
Guests loved the rooms
the litte thingsReviewed on 8/28/2012 Nancy P
While the over all reception was spectacular there were many details that were forgotten. For example we had requested sparkling cider as well as champagne and it wasn't available. There was not as much follow through as there should have been.

Such wastewater quantities have a good potential to be collected, treated and reused. It is considered one of the important alternative water sources. Yet, for cultural reasons, the Palestinian community doesn't accept this as a resource as of yet. Therefore, it is imperative to develop demonstration projects in order to prove the feasibility of such resources and demonstrate that the risks encountered with the use of treated wastewater are minimal when dealt with carefully.
Based on this argument, the issue of treated wastewater re-use is considered one of the key areas that need further development in the Palestinian Areas. Some technical capacity is needed and some new methodologies and approaches are also needed.
Despite the fact that there are some key institutions dealing with the subject, it still needs further development. The cooperation and coordination among them will further promote the issue and will lead to better results. Among the potential institutions are the Palestinian Hydrology Group (PHG), the Agricultural Engineers Association and the Ministry of Agriculture.
There is a clear need for further research on appropriate technology for wastewater collection and treatment in the rural areas. Such technology will help reduce investment costs and will lead to the adoption of decentralized sanitation as a means to reduce pollution from untreated wastewater, while creating an alternative source that can be utilized.
Having said that, there is also a clear need to build the capacity of technicians and operators who might potentially be needed to operate and maintain such systems. Currently, there is no such capacity at the operational level. PHG has established a Training Institute in order to build the capacity of such technicians. PHG is willing to cooperate with the other institutions in order to define the training needs and to design the appropriate training programs.
Furthermore, Water User Associations (WUA) need to be established as a mean to improve local irrigation water management and to increase its efficiency. The WUAs will potentially reflect the end users opinions and their participation. The decision makers and the other stakeholders will assist in promoting the good water governance. It is important that we develop appropriate methodology to set up and organize the WUAs. It is also important to look into the different experiences that exist elsewhere in the world and benefit from their experience.
