The level of panic and exaggeration that's now snowing this issue is truly getting out of hand.
The observed facts are that world's temperature has risen a mere 0.4C since anthropomorphic CO2 became a factor in the atmosphere following WW2, 0.4C, that's all, and the temperature has been stable for the last 16 years (HADCRUT4 Met Office - note also that temperature also climbed 0.4C from the 1900s to the 1940s thus the 0.8C one sees quoted regularly, but this 0.4 predated any possible anthropomorphic effects and is thus definitely natural). All the rest of the argument is based on models, predictions, speculation, and theory, not evidence.
How about we just take deep breath before inviting the world to move here, or reduce the world's population, or go back and live in caves, and wait for little more actual evidence that anything bad is going to happen at all. In fact, its just as likely as not that some more warming would be beneficial, certainly more so than if we had another little ice age which is just as much a risk as anything else at the moment if one worries about the rapid decline in the sun's activity this cycle.

The 20 mm Oerlikon was the most widely used close-range gun in both the US Navy and Royal Navy, which had up to that point only developed inferior guns in comparison. In comparison with the Hispano Suiza, the Oerlikon had a lower rate of fire and muzzle velocity, but was despite these shortcomings an excellent weapons. The American and British built thousands of these during the war, and naturally the surviving Dutch warships also received this gun (of both US and British origin ) as replacement for the useless light machine guns. There was very little difference between the types of the US Navy and Royal Navy.

During the late 1920s the French army decided to adopt a large-caliber machine gun, for anti-armor and air defence duties, and after some experimenting it finally settled on 13,2mm caliber. As usual with the French army, most work was conducted in deep secrecy, but the outcome of the trials was the adoption of the heavy machine gun, developed by Hotchkiss, which happened in 1930. This weapon used a modified version of the American .50 calibre ammunition, loaded with bullets of slightly larger diameter – 13.2mm as opposed to the original 12.7mm; the cartridge cases were about the same, save for the larger diameter of the neck of the French load. The machine gun, known as the M1930, was more or less an enlarged version of the Hotchkiss M1922 light machine gun, with a similar gas-operated action and similar feed options, available in two versions – with side-fed strips or top-fed box magazines. What was most important was the fact that the French army and Navy also adopted a number of mountings for this formidable weapon, starting with the more or less usual tripods and up to sophisticated single, twin and quad AA mountings with pantograph sight mounts and movable seats for gunners. Twin and quad mountings were widely installed on trucks, railroad cars and ships. Versions of the heavy Hotchkiss were also widely exported during the pre-war decade. Japan, among others, was so impressed with these weapons that it acquired a manufacturing license and built 13.2mm machine guns in significant numbers.
The Hotchkiss M1930 heavy machine gun is a gas operated, air-cooled, automatic-only weapon, which fires from an open bolt. The long-stroke gas system and locking using a tilting locking piece are similar to those of the Hotchkiss M1922 LMG, but the trigger system is much simpler; it uses a single or twin spade grip at the rear of receiver with a thumb-trigger, which is directly connected to the sear. Some infantry versions of the gun were fitted with a pistol grip and a trigger at the rear of receiver, with shoulder stock attached behind. The rear part of the barrel (behind the gas block) is encased in a radiator with radial cooling fins. The Hotchkiss M1930 heavy machine gun could be had either in strip-fed or in magazine-fed versions. The magazine-fed type incorporates a bolt hold-open device, which locks the bolt open once the magazine is empty, even if the trigger is still held down. The bolt hold-open device is automatically disengaged once a fresh magazine is inserted into the gun.
The M1930 heavy machine gun was available on a wide variety of mountings, including light infantry tripods (with no AA capability), wheeled mountings, as well as single, twin and quad AA mountings, with ground fire capability and comprehensive aiming systems. Strip-fed guns were most often used for infantry applications on single mounts; magazine-fed guns were also widely used on multiple gun mounts, either ground or naval.

History of the 13.2-mm Hotchkiss:
In the late 1920s, Hotchkiss proposed a range of anti-aircraft automatic weapons in the 13.2, 25 and 37 mm calibers. They were all based on the same type of gas-operated action than the 8 mm mle 1914 machine gun, that had proven extremely reliable during World War I and was still in service. Hotchkiss also advertised the 13.2 mm machine gun as an infantry weapon, that could be fitted on conventional tripods and be used against light armor. French infantry commanders, that had expressed interest in acquiring light anti-aircraft guns, refused the 13.2 mm. They argued that those heavy bullets falling down could be dangerous to friendly troops, and went to larger calibers where self-destructing shells were available. But the 13.2 mm Hotchkiss saw extensive use as a naval gun, and was also chosen by the French cavalry for some of its armored vehicles.
When used as a naval weapon-
Early in World War II, the French and Japanese navies were using twin and quadruple mountings on many of their warships. French warships that were refitted in the USA in 1943, such as battleship Richelieu or destroyer Le Terrible, had their 13.2 mm machine guns replaced by more efficient Oerlikon 20 mm cannons.
When used a ground weapon-
The 13.2 mm Hotchkiss was used on the, Belgian T15 and French AMR 35, light tanks as well as the AMD Laffly 80 AM armoured car and on fortifications. In WWII the Japanese mounted of the gun on a number of Type 92 Heavy Armoured Cars which had initially only been armed with only a pair of 6.5mm machine guns.
When used as a Anti-Aircraft weapon-
The Japanese used a single mounting for close-range defense of its airfields and other strategic places.

The Bullis School football team has won two Interstate Athletic Conference football championships in three seasons, finishing 9-1 a year ago while winning the crown.
The Bulldogs' only loss came in the season opener against one of the top Washington Catholic Athletic Conference schools, St. John's College High School, when many of its top players were out with injuries.
Not good enough, says rising senior running back Devonte Williams.
The goal at the Potomac school for 2014 is to win a third IAC title in four years and do so with a perfect record.
"This year we're trying to go 10-0," Williams said. "I think this is the perfect timing to do it because we're loaded this year. We have Jonathan Holland, Dwayne Haskins Jr., Craig [Williams], Brian Latham. So we should be pretty well-off this year. Hopefully we can finally go 10-0 this year [for the] first time in school history."
If they do it, Williams will no doubt play a large role. He followed up a strong sophomore where he rushed for about 1,200 yards with a better junior year: 1,535 yards and 23 touchdowns.
He averaged 7.8 yards per carry in 2013 and was also a threat in the return game, returning four punts for touchdowns.
This year, as a proven playmaker and a three-star recruit, according to Scout.com, Williams said he expects to be able to show another side of his game.
"We're going to run a spread offense, something like West Virginia," Williams said. "So I'm going to be the 'X' [split end] receiver sometimes this year. And I'm also going to be in the backfield. So, I just pride myself on being versatile and utilizing my skill set in open space."
As a freshman, Williams played slot receiver. While it isn't the same as catching passes from the outside, his versatility makes him a threat from anywhere on the field.
He said that the change in offensive philosophy will help his quarterback, the heavily-recruited Haskins, show his abilities. But with the rushing prowess of Williams already known, he can benefit from a different look as well.
"When the big shoes come to the games, they can see how I'm able to be used," he said.
"His football IQ is off the charts," Bullis coach Pat Cilento said. "He just does a great job of everything he does, whether it's catching the ball out of the backfield, lining up in the slot ...
"Last year, we were more of an I-[formation] team. This year I see us being more of a spread team and him getting even more touches out on the perimeter."
Williams has drawn interest from several colleges and said he has narrowed his decision down to Indiana and Old Dominion. He said he'll likely make a decision in the middle of this season. He also said he thinks Arizona State is going to extend a scholarship offer.
"I'm just taking my time in the process because that's what everybody has been telling me. Not to rush," Williams said.
This summer, he's been working on running crisper routes and doing it faster.
Hudl.com lists Williams with a 40-yard-dash time of 4.5 seconds. He's worked with speed trainer Adam Wooten in Ashburn, Va., to bring that number down. He also trained in Scottsdale, Ariz., with his uncle, Omar Evans, who graduated from Springbrook in 1995 and played six seasons in the Canadian Football League. While in Scottsdale, Williams ran routes with NFL stars such as Terrell Suggs of the Baltimore Ravens and Ryan Clark of the Washington Redskins. Both are clients of his uncle's training program.
"Speed, speed. Bigger, faster, stronger," Williams said.

Best Friends Animal Society is the only national animal welfare organization focused exclusively on ending the killing of dogs and cats in America's shelters. To this end, Best Friends works with shelters, rescue groups and our members nationwide on a variety of grassroots programs. By implementing targeted spay/neuter and community cat programs – trap/neuter/return (TNR) programs – to reduce the number of animals who enter shelters, and by increasing the number of people who adopt pets, we know we can end the killing. We know we can Save Them All®.
When Best Friends began in 1984, some 17 million animals died every year in our nation's shelters, simply for not having safe places to call home. Today, that number is down to about 4 million.

Reviews for Best Friends Animal Society
Wow! These people believe in what they do, generate enthusiasm when they promote their cause, and inspire us animal lovers to do whatever we can to help. They have a vision for the future and uniquely creative ways to get there. Their No More Homeless Pets campaign has made such an amazing difference across the entire country in just a few years! Even their animal photographers are the best. I'd read so many good things about them that I couldn't believe it was all true. I finally had a chance to visit and volunteer for a week after they'd been in business 10 years and I was awestruck. It's even better than I could have imagined!

Best Friends will help us get to "no kill"! Their understanding of all animals is invaluable to the rest of us in trying to protect the animals and "Save them all". I have visited them twice to volunteer with their animals, and it is the best experience I have ever had! I will be back to volunteer again. I also have adopted a dog from them, one who needed work, and she was given that training before she came to me. They understand what the animals need, so they will go to their forever homes. The animal rescue movement would have stalled by now, if it weren't for Best Friends!!!

Positive....one word to describe BFAS. There stories don't dwell on the bad...only the good and the changes they have made towards a better world for animals. They are inspirational!
Best Friends fills such an important role in the animal rights/care community. They advocate for and care for animals and educate the public about so many aspects of animal care and concerns. This is one of the great charities in the U.S. and viewed highly by so many.

My friend and I volunteered for the first time this last weekend and were so impressed with the quality of the facilities. However we were even more impressed with the skills, devotion and loving kindness of all the caretakers we worked with. We are in the process of building a fence so that we can adopt a dog and we will definitely be back to volunteer again soon. Kudos to Best Friends. Karen Tomlinson
My wife and I first heard about the work of Best Friends Animal Sanctuary ( that's what it was called then) early on in there existence from a friend of ours, and as people who always have loved animals, have watched them grow and become a national force, thanks to the commitment of those young animal loving young founders.
We have been supporters for decades and honestly believe there is no finer animal charity in the country, or perhaps in the world. The compassion of the people of Best Friends is evidenced by their actions every day.
Surely they played a major role in the movement of change for the better in the way we in this country view other sentient beings, those who share the planet with us. Like them, we hope for a day when there really are "No More Homeless Pets".
As they at Best Friends say, "Together We Can Save Them All".
We would encourage all who care about animals to give strong consideration to Best Friends Animal Society for their hard earned charitable donation dollars.

Best Friends are amazing. They take the animals that need extra support and care and make sure they have a happy life whether they ultimately get adopted or not.
I had heard about Best Friends a few years ago through some fellow animal lovers and a couple years ago I bought the book "Best Friends" which tells the story of how they started out to what they have accomplished and grown to be now. It was amazing to read that there are actually people out there who are as crazy about animals as I am and it was incredible how much devotion and dedication those men and women had towards this cause that they all deeply believed in. I was blown away by the love that the founders of Best Friends, and all of those who helped them, had for animals and to see what they continue to do for animals to this day has completely restored my faith in humanity. Best Friends truly and genuinely care about the animal welfare and I admire the hard work and big hearts of all of those who are a part of it. They show that there really is a lot of good still left in the world and I respect and thank them for all that they do.

I have visited Best Friends 3 times and there is a special sense just going onto the property. Love for the animals is everywhere. They save animals with profound problems. Additionally they provide support to shelters all over the US. Their goal is to save all animals. If I have a problem or questions about my animals they are quick to answer my email. I LOVE Best Friends.
I have volunteered at Best Friends for 8 years. Not only is this a beautiful and peaceful place, it is the best 5 star rescue for animals. The care and love the animals receive here is unbelievable. The animals are worked with so that they can be adopted to a forever home. If that does not happen they have a great home for their life time. Becoming a volunteer was one of the best decisions of my life.

Joint EESS/GES Winter Seminar Series, David Fike, Washington University
Joint EESS/GES Winter Seminar Series, David Fike, Washington University, "Environmental controls on the generation and eventual incorporation of sulfur signatures in sediments", Abstract: This talk highlights our current understanding of the biological and geological processes that impact the abundance and isotopic composition of sulfur preserved in sedimentary strata. I will discuss some novel micro-analytical techniques that we have been developing to better document the variability of these proxies and to investigate their origins. Additionally, I will outline a series of laboratory experiments and field studies in both modern environments and ancient sedimentary strata that can be used together with these techniques in order to improve our understanding of the environmental controls on sulfur-based biogeochemical proxies.

Are the days of MS Project numbered?
MS Project,
Categories: MS Project, Tools
Using MS Project is a bit of a right of passage for most people that have done project management in an enterprise scale. While many have grizzled and grumbled about the application, for a long time it was really the only one that would allow you to do what you needed to get done. What made it worse was between 1998 and 2010, there had been little new in terms of functionality and user interface that made life easy. With 2010 (and 2013) with the development of Project Server, Microsoft has added a few useful functionality.
Reposted from my blog Project Management in Practice.
A lot of web development folk had already deserted MS Project (or never used to begin with). The likes of Basecamp and Jira had been very popular. But there remains a good proportion of traditional PMOs that will require you to provide information and updates in MS Project format. So we could never really get rid of it.
Also gone are the days when everyone in the enterprise uses a bog standard OS and store things in a common location on the network. People are more mobile. BYOD is pervasive in most organisations. Many use Mac laptops, iOS or Android devices while on the move. If you subscribe to Office 365 on a Mac, you cannnot event get MS Project. While Microsoft addressed some issues with Project Server, many of its Project Web Access functionality didn't work properly outside IE.
I recently came across Gantter from smartapps.com. I am pretty impressed by what I see. The main Gantt view pretty much looks like MS Project. Rather than taking a lot of MS project functionality, they look to have taken the most used ones – tasks, resources, calendars, and baselines. It has even added one thing that plagues most Project Managers (and ends up getting managed in spreadsheets) – Risks!
Gantter can be integrated with Google Drive or Apps and allows you to have real time editing and chat with other Google users. It also allows you to save your projects into your OneDrive or DropBox storage. It can load projects from MS Project and also export to that format. There are plenty of default templates to get you going, or you can create your own. The best part is … it's free. No longer do you have to pay exorbitant fees for MS Project.
I've only just started using Gantter. So final judgement is still pending. However, based on what I can see to date, MS Project's days may finally be numbered. Even if you're forced to report in that format by your customers.

Opposite of job dissatisfaction is not job satisfaction … what do you mean?
Reading endless research papers for my MBA may finally be paying off. I'm finding one or two gems. This one from Frederick Herzberg is one such article. He contends that dissatisfaction and satisfaction actually contends with two different human needs. First, being the nature to avoid pain from the environment, second being our drive and ability to achieve. Therefore they are in fact not opposites of each other. Does this tally up?
Re-posted from my blog Management in Practice.
In most staff surveys the number one complaints I can remember are to do with company policies and administration. Timesheet system is crap, too many meetings, things too slow to move, my manager is a !@$!@% are some of the most common ones. Closely followed are to do with working conditions – stress, balance of personal life, relationship with peers, pay etc. Herzberg calls these the hygiene factor of jobs.
I work in the field of IT. In most cases, people are reasonably well compensated. I hardly see anyone leave jobs for these reasons. I see far more people leave jobs because they cannot advance themselves (lack of training), the work itself doesn't challenge them, they don't feel recognised for their work or don't find a sense of personal achievement in their jobs. Herzberg calls these the motivating factors of jobs.
The situation may be different in other blue collar jobs. While it is tempting to lump all my colleagues past and present into a single bucket, I'll avoid that. Instead, if I think of my career to date, I tend to find it quite plausible. Hygiene factors have to tip the balance so much more than the motivating factors to influence me to stay of move on. So Herzberg has my affirmative vote on this one.
Why does this matter for management? One typical weakness in management is our focus on things that make the loudest noise. It is easy to identify the hygiene factors and express how dissatisfied you are. As managers we spend lots of time trying to make those go away. That actually doesn't motivate us as much. All it does is takes an irritation away. Our productivity and ultimately job satisfaction rests on the motivating factors … why we work.

What can accounting and finance teach project and program management?
Lessons learned
Categories: Accounting, Finance, Lessons learned
Nearly two decades ago I took one accounting paper and did just enough studying to pass it. I was studying for an IT degree at the time and only did the paper as it was a compulsory one. Wheels have now turned enough for me to come back to doing an MBA and by coincidence, starting back with accounting as my first paper. Today though my attitude is different. I can see use of quite a few accounting principles in managing projects, programs and portfolios – be it the IT domain or any other.
Reposted from my blog Project, Program and Portfolio Management in Practice.
What is a project?
Neither of the two main project management bodies have very similar definitions of project.
What is the shortcoming in both definitions? Both are approaching the project from the point of view of those that are charged to deliver the outputs. Project teams do not undertake projects because they think it is a good idea. Where is the customer in all of this? It can be argued that the mention of the business case in the PRINCE2 definition means it now represents what the customer gets out of it. None of these are as clear as the accounting definition of project
You can define the terms owner and wealth to what is appropriate in your context. But this definition is the most focused one that I have found anywhere. If anyone was unclear as to the outcome they should be delivering, this leaves no room for doubt.
Is this project/program worth investing in?
Business cases for projects contain all manner of justifications. Accounting and finance provide the mechanisms for relative comparison. Whether justification is based on additional cashflows, reduced expenditure, or increased efficiency accounting provides mechanisms to objectively compare them. Key strength of accounting is it takes into account the time value of money too. A dollar earned today is much more valuable than a dollar earned sometime in future. The concept of Net Present Value (NPV) provides a way to compare cashflows that are invaluable tools for such comparison. Accounting also has very clear formulas to calculate break even points given different amounts of fixed and variable costs. Many business cases fail to address these fundamentals. It should be mandatory for those involved in preparing and evaluating business cases to have understanding of these concepts.
How is it going?
Accounting is full of metrics. Whether you are measuring efficiency, turnover, income, cash conversion cycle (how long before you lay money out for raw materials to when you get paid for it), what a share or bond should be worth etc. The closest project management comes in a traditional sense is earned value management (EVM) and more recently the burn down charts in some of the agile practices. Some service management organizations are better at it. They do measure mean time to failure and restore among other operational metrics. Singular focus on analysis and improvement on these is something project management can learn from.
How do I report?
I have seen and prepared all manner of project reports. If I don't see another Red Amber Green report, I don't think my life will miss much. While these reports are useful in getting our eyes focus on likely areas of problems they are pretty useless in contextualizing what the problem is. This is where accounting leads just about any profession. Generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) mandates interpretations of exactly how reporting is undertaken. I am somewhat generalizing to make a point about standardization of reporting.
Does that mean accounting and finance have it all over project management? Not quite. The two are totally different disciplines. You can equally play the accounting system as the likes of Enron, Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac would attest to. The key is to take the strengths of other professions and make ours even stronger. As I go through some other papers I feel there may be a few more posts coming titled what can " " teach …

Do managers need technical background
Categories: Leadership, Stakeholder
Couple of years ago I wrote a post on whether managers needed technical background to be successful. That article had a specific focus on project management. I have recently been thinking about the same topic on a slightly different context.
Re-posted from my blog Project Management in Practice.
I recently embarked on an Executive MBA. The first paper I'm taking for the course is Accounting. The aim of the paper is not to turn managers into accountants, but to enable them to make sense of accounts, the information these give and what can be used to make management decisions. My study group contains an executive from local government, a consultant that works with ministers and mayors, a statistical analyst from a government department. I manage part of an IT professional services consultancy. We all seem to have forged successful careers which require interpretation and forecasting of financial information without being accountants. So I wondered important is domain knowledge really?
You can argue that we have taken up MBA precisely because we may have realised there is a gap in our expertise. There is an element of truth to that. Let's explore this further. Most professional careers will require you to have some sort of qualification. Whoever is the team leader in that setting is one that is appointed on the basis of their experience and/or expertise in that area. It can be helpful in the next step up to managing business units as well. Once you get to group / divisional level usually domain knowledge is less helpful. You require expertise in other areas of business to be successful. Executives in your business may have little or no knowledge of the particular domain area, but they will usually bring significant strategy and business knowledge.
There are different skills required in different areas of management. Can you effectively devise strategy if you had no domain knowledge of the business. The answer is no. This is where senior managers use domain expertise to bounce ideas off, find what is feasible and risks and rewards of various approaches. Senior managers are judged by their ability to understand the totality of a business and impact of choices that get best outcome for the enterprise.
This need to get away from the details at certain levels is why many brilliant technical staff do not necessarily make great managers. Those that wish to move up the chain will at some point have to give up their control of specific areas they look after (be it engineering, software development, teaching) and trust others to provide the expertise and spend the time understanding the business as a whole. This is not an easy thing to let go of.

Can you get the right reaction with the occasional verbal spray?
Categories: Behavior, Leadership, People
I was reading an article in the Harvard Business Review regarding the appropriateness of yelling at employees. It was quite an interesting article in which Michael Schrage gives examples as Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Sir Alex Ferguson, Vince Lombardi, Arturo Toscanini in various professions as those not averse to a bit of verbal spray. He makes an interesting point that while yelling does not make one a better manager, at the same time it does not necessarily indicate managerial weakness or failure of leadership.
Re-published from my blog Project Management in Practice.
Scharge seems to have taken quite a hammering if you read some of the comments on the article. However, I am sure he was playing the devils advocate and wrote the piece precisely to get this reaction. Indeed in some cases managers or leaders get away with the occasional hair dryer treatment. Let us have a think about what it is that their employees are letting them get away with and why. I will use some of the gentlemen mentioned in this very article.
The likes of Steve Jobs and Bill Gates built or ran organisations that generated a lot of wealth within its employee ranks. These are also organisations that employ some leading minds and have made a lot of employees rich through stock options. People work in these organisations for various reasons. Some are after the intellectual fulfillment, others for monetary reward, some purely to enhance their resume. Same is true for the likes of Ferguson and Lombardi. Players play for their teams for a mixture of lure of winning trophies, play with other great players, the salary or adulation from the fans.
For every Gates and Jobs there are multiple Kevin Rudd, Mark Pincus. For every Ferguson and Lombardi there are many more Buck Shelfords. The Shelford example is quite striking. He was known as the hardest rugby player. He once played on despite against France despite an act of foul play resulting in his scrotum being split. Bring back Buck signs are still visible today from fans cherishing his demeanour. Yet, when he took to coaching, he relied on the same "hard man" persona and foul mouth. His teams were unmitigated disasters.
What does that tell us. It is not these leaders' yelling at their charges that got the results. Instead it was their other attributes of vision, planning, development of individual capabilities and sense of pride in work that were the key contributors for their success. In my view their sometimes tempestuous behaviour actually got in the way to diminish their other qualities. There would be a level of tolerance for everyone. Exceeding those would lead to people abandoning even the most decorated leaders.
Most people are not the special ones mentioned here. If leaders are to take cues from these well known figures, they should instead concentrate on their other qualities. I have found even small things like acknowledging good efforts from individuals and thanking them for those goes a long way than anything else. I struggle to think if yelling would ever give me the same reaction. Everyone is different in how they react to volleys of verbal spray. You have to make sure you get the right reactions from people.

Questionable $110M State Deals Bypassed Reviews (page 10019)
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — State officials say $110 million in no-bid health contracts that are now the focus of a criminal investigation bypassed two routine oversight boards for deals of that size.
The Austin American-Statesman reported Tuesday that the lucrative contracts with Austin-based 21CT skipped those reviews while avoiding a bidding process. The tech company was hired to help the Texas Health and Human Services Commission root out Medicaid fraud.
A spokeswoman for the state comptroller says it's unclear whether the bypassed reviews violated state law.
Two high-ranking state health officials resigned this month as scrutiny over the contracts intensified. Three others were sent home on paid administrative leave.
Public corruption prosecutors in Austin are preparing to open a case. Health Commissioner Kyle Janek has said he doesn't believe anyone acted illegally.

George W. Bush had a special phone friend during his White House years: Bill Clinton.
Asked on CBS' "Face the Nation" whether it was true that he often called Clinton, Bush replied: "I don't know about often, but I did. I called him. He didn't call me because he knows how busy a president is. I called him and we chatted on occasion."
Neither Republican nor Democrat Clinton said just what they discussed.
"I was always pleased when he called me," Clinton said as he sat beside Bush for the interview. "I make it a practice never to bother the president. I don't call President Obama either. ... They got plenty to do."
Bush's eight years in office followed Clinton's two terms. While poles apart politically, the ex-presidents said they consider themselves to be friends.
"We have developed a very honest, good friendship," Clinton said. "And we've made our disagreements respectful and we've had a good time doing it."
The two met President Barack Obama at the White House on Saturday and taped segments for five Sunday news shows to appeal for private donations for Haiti relief.

Wedge Island (Western Australia)
Wedge Island is located north of Lancelin and South of Cervantes on the Western Australian coast. The name mainly refers to the mainland settlement but also refers to a 400 metres (1,300 ft) long wedge shaped island located just south of "the point". The island itself is a declared nature reserve. The settlement of Grey is about 15 km. north-west. Both are within the Shire of Dandaragan.
Wedge Island was named after government surveyor Charles Wedge, in 1875 by Staff-Commander William Edwin Archdeacon R.N., who was in charge of the Admiralty survey of the coast of Western Australia.[1]
The settlement is now home to approximately 350 beach shacks on unvested land that are used by crayfishermen and holiday-goers. A new sealed road, Indian Ocean Drive, was opened in September 2010, and there are claims that this has changed the local environment.
Wedge can also be accessed via bush tracks and the beach if the tide is out. The inland tracks are on a military firing range and are cut off to the public during live firing. The beach is very soft during summer and many vehicles become bogged or are swept into the water.
Wedge is often quiet during the cooler months but during major public holidays such as Christmas, New Years Day and Australia Day there are people in nearly every shack. Camping in the area is now officially prohibited. It is estimated that 14,000 individuals may use the shacks at Wedge and Grey. There are no shops, mains electricity nor running water, so generators are common. Activities include four wheel driving, sand boarding, surfing and kitesurfing, fishing, swimming and snorkeling. Motorbike riding has been banned in the area surrounding Wedge Island after many accidents resulted in people needing to be air lifted to get medical attention. The ranger now hands out fines to those caught using unlicensed vehicles in the vicinity, or leaving rubbish there.
A man was fatally stabbed during a beach party on the northern side of Wedge in December 2013, after a brawl broke out. The New Year's Eve party involved more than 600 people.[2]
The WA Government has considered the removal of the shacks on Wedge in line with government policy. in March 2010, the Minister for the Environment Donna Faragher announced that she would not be seeking an end to the leases at Wedge and Grey until compromise options were considered by government. In April 2011, a WA Legislative Council Standing Committee found that coastal shacks should be removed to protect the environment from "unplanned growth". The shack leases were due to expire on 30 June 2011 but the Wedge community won a one year renewal for all occupied facilities.

Help a newbie in Debian PLS!
Hi. I am a newbie on Linux and installed Woody 30r0.
Since X didn't start because of my Geforce 2 MX 200 with the nv driver set, I installed SVGA with dpkg-reconfigure xserver-svga.
Now I can use X on 800x600 but I would like to have 1024x768. Can anyone help?
I read the nvidia Linux Page and I think I can use RPM "generics" but "DEBIAN" is not listed under the files needed for Kernel download. Besides all that info is really confusing to me!
Can anyone help me? I think all I need is "download this this and that, then install like this" to get it to work.
Thanks a lot!!!
PS: I already did apt-get update and apt-get upgrade.
Zou have to download the follwing files:
Unpack these with tar xfvz filename.tar.gz.
Read the manual files in there, install it accordingly and be happy :)
Ah, btw, you have to install the kernel-headers before you can install the kernel driver module.
Good luck!
Hrm... I cannot remember the exact names but you might want to run dselect and search for 'nvidia' and you want to install the kernel and glx sources. You will then need to read the /usr/doc/nvidia-* documentation and see what is needed to build the debs. If you want a more debian-ish way of doing things and you don't want the normal .tar.gz nvidia install trampling over some files, you may want to look into doing it that way.
Frankjr is right :)
There are also 2 debian packages in the stable distribution named nvidia-glx-src and nvidia-kernel-src.
The better way would to use these two packages.
I haven't seen em and used the way described above. Works fine till now ;)
gonna try the first way. As for the second way I actually kinda did that.
I used apt-cache search nvidia and both files were there so I installed them with apt-get install <both modules>.
now I did that yesterday without the nvidia drivers installed first and so on since I was just playing around with anything that said "nvidia" (hehe) I hope I didn't screw up the installation.
Anyway, gonna try this later on today.
thanks people!

|Braves | Jim Johnson notches 13th hold
Thu, 28 May 2015 17:56:13 -0700
Atlanta Braves RP Jim Johnson picked up his 13th hold of the season Wednesday, May 27. Johnson is one shy of the MLB lead, held by San Francisco Giants RP Sergio Romo.
Fantasy Tip: Johnson is a must own in leagues with the holds category. Johnson is also worth grabbing in deeper standard leagues, as he'll be in line for the Braves' closer job if anything were to happen to Jason Grilli.

Atlanta Braves RP Jim Johnson filled in for RP Jason Grilli (back) to notch the save Monday, May 11.
Fantasy Tip: Grilli should be ready to return in the near future, but Johnson appears to have leapfrogged Cody Martin in the pecking order. Johnson could have value in the next couple of days if you're save speculating.

Fantasy Tip: It sounds like a committee is brewing up, and Johnson and Grilli should both be owned in traditional leagues. Both have had success, both have had recent flameouts.

30 Seconds of Confidence
I am a handsome gentleman with a strong head on his shoulders. I am very passionate about my career, but also how valuable life is. I am that point in my life that I am looking to settle down with someone that I can laugh, dream, explore what life has to offer and eventually fill my heart with unconditional love and make it Smile! Two things in life I cannot tolerate: liars and cheaters. If you cannot respect that then I am not interested in talking. One thing very important is a woman who has a warm, friendly personality that is compatible just like mine. Someone I can just be myself and be accepted for the person I am and the person I can be. I absolutely love going to the movies, seeing a good comedy or Broadway show, seeing a good concert, enjoying a romantic evening or just going out to dinner to enjoy each others company or just to talk to hear what is on each others mind. I am looking forward to the day I am the guy lucky enough to be the one waiting for your hand at the end of the aisle.

LAKE PLACID - The Golden Arrow Lakeside Resort in Lake Placid retired 132 tons of carbon dioxide for the month of December 2008. The Golden Arrow accomplished this by working jointly with the Adirondack Council and their Cool Park/Healthy Planet Carbon Retirement Program.
The program was created by the Adirondack Council to prevent thousands of tons of carbon dioxide from being emitted by power plants from Maine to Delaware. The Golden Arrow committed to retire enough carbon credits to offset the total number of occupied room nights for the month of December. It has been estimated that the there are 100 lbs of carbon emitted per room night.
The Golden Arrow had a goal to retire 100 tons of carbon credits through the program. A total of 2590 rooms were occupied at the resort for the month of December. The resort, through the program, permanently retired 132 tons, which was almost one third more than their original goal. It was their objective to help guests and the public to understand that they can really help make a difference.
The Golden Arrow made a donation of $1,100 to the Cool Park/Healthy Planet Carbon Retirement Program.
What made the Adirondack Council's program unique was that it removed actual carbon credits that power companies in the northeast had been able to purchase to give them the right to emit carbon. Through the Adirondack Councils Cool Park/Healthy Planet Program, these are now permanently retired which is a major benefit to the environment.
"We were so grateful to be able to work with the Adirondack Council again and take advantage of this program," said Jennifer Holderied, owner of the Golden Arrow. "What was really great is that for Christmas, our staff surprised us and retired six tons of carbon in our family's name. It is rewarding to see we are all on the same page when it comes to sustainability."

Bring me something to process it in (such as two trays - needs to be dumped into bleach straight from dev) to process in and I can process your 4x5" C-41 no probs using Kodak Flexicolor.
I'm in Ringwood.
PM me if interested.
I'm also pretty desperate to get in contact with someone who can help. Lab X had about 20 rolls of 120 from recent film projects I've been working on. I don't know what to do. I feel like crying.

I was in there on Tuesday and there was not a peep about this, though they must have known it was coming. Not very professional or ethical.
Their phone number goes to a machine. I have emailed email@example.com, with no response so far. I couldn't care less about the prints they were doing but I will be very annoyed indeed if I can't get my original transparencies back.
Does anybody else know anything about this, or of a way to get in touch with them?
Anyone else got material with them that you need back?
Germain, I am told there is a number on their door you can ring, to pickup stuff!
Marc Morel
President, Melbourne Silver Mine Inc.
Thanks Marc, that's a great help.
Does anyone have that number to collect work, that's on the Lab X door? I'm interstate at the minute and it would be really helpful.
The phone number on the door is 0438 457 047 ( Ray )
From what they told me it sounds like they are intending to continue business in some form once the mess with the landlord is sorted out though
There's a thread over on RFF been running for several days. Last post was
Quote: just got a call from LabX with the lowdown: as Spyro said, water damage, insurance claims, moving to new location - and not closing down. They should be up and running again soon.
Not only that, my films are safe and developed & I'll get them this afternoon. End Quote.
Maybe it's not as dire as some people are saying.
I've used Horsham Colour's mail service previously with good results for colour neg but as they're a professional lab they probably do other film types and formats.
A shady landlord with short arms and long pockets? Who would have thought such a thing was possible!

Ha ha! Well that's great news - I always found them a super good service...

A little information can go a long way when it comes to understanding rodent-borne infectious disease, as shown by a new study led by scientist John Orrock of the University of Wisconsin-Madison and colleagues.
The researchers studied wild deer mouse populations on the Channel Islands off the southern coast of California. The mice carry a variant of hantavirus--a disease spread by rodents--called Sin Nombre virus.
Results of the study appear in the May issue of the journal American Naturalist.
They show that just three ecological factors--rainfall, predator diversity and island size and shape--can account for nearly all the differences in infection rates between the eight islands.
The study also provides some of the first evidence to support a recent hypothesis that predators play an important ecological role in regulating disease--sometimes known as the "predators are good for your health" hypothesis.
"These findings support an emerging consensus that ecological factors such as food web structure and species diversity play a key role in determining the prevalence of zoonotic diseases and human health risk," says Alan Tessier, program director in the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Environmental Biology, which funded the research.
In humans, Sin Nombre virus causes Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome, a virulent and often fatal disease.
An outbreak of Sin Nombre virus in 1993 in the Four Corners area of the U.S. Southwest killed several people and brought national attention to the disease.
Learning what factors control the prevalence and spread of viruses like Sin Nombre within host populations is crucial for understanding the risks of animal-borne diseases.
"The ecological underpinnings of disease prevalence, its dynamics in natural populations and its transmission from animals to humans are important links that are still being deciphered," says Orrock.

What Are Miley Cyrus's Dogs' Names?
Miley Cyrus lost a BFF in early December when her 2-year-old pup Lila (pictured above) passed away unexpectedly. "I wish this feeling would stop," Miley tweeted on December 12. "I wish there was something I could do to bring my baby back. I'd give up anything in this world...."
As heartbroken as Miley was over the loss of her Yorkie mix, at least she had her five other dogs to console her with licks.
For extra comfort, she went ahead and adopted another pint-size pup on January 3. Let's meet the pack — including its newest member, Bean — and pour one out for Lila. RIP, little furry one.
Adorable Floyd turned 1 in May 2012.
Ziggy the Bulldog
Miley gave fiancé Liam Hemsworth the gift of this wrinkly bulldog for his 22nd birthday on January 13, 2012. "Got Liam THE best bday pressie ever!" Miley gushed on Twitter.
Happy the Rottweiler-Beagle Mix
Miley and Liam found Happy in a box outside a Walmart in early May 2012.
Mary Jane
Miley adopted Mary Jane just two weeks after taking Happy into her home. "I ❤ Mary Jane," she tweeted on December 5, along with this accompanying photo of the 2-year-old pooch.
Penny Lane
Miley rescued little Penny Lane in late November.
Miley adopted Bean on January 3, 2013, and introduced the little lady on twitter. "Bean is a little girl :) she is a chihuahua mix of some type :) she brought so much sunshine!!!" she wrote. "I love my little bean so much."
