Following the Southern Oregon wildfire response, HSPR received a letter of thanks from Jessica Schwarz, Josephine County Emergency Services manager. "During the days of the fires, there was an incredible partnership from you and your staff," she writes. "Having staff within OHA, such as Beth Depew and Elizabeth Miglioretto, available to respond to the smoke and health issues was critical." The letter continues, "With a big heart I say THANK YOU! You definitely made a stressful situation more palatable. Well done in your commitment to the safety of the people of Southern Oregon and Josephine County."
In their words …
Beth Depew, B.S., EMT-I, SW Oregon HPP liaison
I live in southern Douglas County. In the early morning hours of July 26, 2013, a very small, yet targeted thunderstorm, started multiple fires in Josephine and Southern Douglas counties. Later that morning, from my front yard, I could see that we were surrounded by smoke. I contacted the Josephine County Emergency manager for a fire update and her response was, "there is fire everywhere." On Saturday, July 27, the Douglas Complex fire blew up and was burning out of control. The sheriff visited our home and informed us that we had to be ready to evacuate within a 30-minute time frame. Once I readied my home and family for evacuation I was able to re-focus my efforts on my role as HPP Region 5 health care liaison.
Fire and smoke, like other natural and human-made catastrophes, don't observe jurisdictional lines and during these catastrophes HPP and PHEP liaisons don't either. We work together to connect partners, share information, and provide seamless support where our skills and established relationships are most useful. I contacted Douglas County Public Health to give them a "heads up," about the rapidly deteriorating air quality in the Glendale area. Then I went over to the fire camp and checked in with the Incident Commander and Public Information Officer (PIO). I provided them with the Crisis and Emergency Communication (CERC) toolkit and let them know that Douglas County Public Health would be in touch with them to coordinate public messaging. Then I provided Douglas County with the names and phone numbers of the fire Incident Management Team (IMT). This action connected Douglas County Public Health with the Fire IMT.
The next task was to establish ongoing communications with both the HPP Region 5 Coalition and the Health Security, Preparedness and Response team in Portland. I was welcomed into the Josephine County Emergency Operations Center and assisted them in the Planning Section. I was given full access to all the fire complex's reports, connected to the Joint Information Center, and air quality monitoring reports. From these data I ensured daily Situation Reports were generated for the county and partners to help ensure a common operating picture. Access to this information also allowed me to keep the Region 5 Coalition and HSPR staff informed on an ongoing basis. In the end, it's all about authentic partnerships and information sharing.
Elizabeth Miglioretto, M.P.H., S.W. Oregon PHEP liaison
My first notification that there was an issue was from a personal contact, which prompted me to start reaching out to my local public health departments. Once I made contact with a couple of my affected counties, the communication began.
One of the county public health programs I work with was in the middle of an organizational restructure in which the PHEP coordinator was taking on a new job. Another had to make an immediate shift out of the role as public health preparedness coordinator because she is also the county emergency manager. And another had to take a larger role in public information because the local PIO was on vacation. My first action was to connect them as the air quality issue was affecting all of them, and they needed to coordinate their public health messaging.
After that, I was chasing down information and trying to connect the dots for them as issues arose. As someone who has worked in public health preparedness in Oregon for 10 years, it was very encouraging to see Douglas County Health and Social Services using the incident command system principles they have spent many hours of training in. I watched this help them organize and manage their response.
Each day they briefed me by the end of the day about their objectives, the adjustments to the provision of programs, staff and client safety and what was planned for the following day. This allowed me to be more proactive in supporting their efforts. Additionally, as a part of this response I was able to participate in the two best after-action reviews to date. Well done!

Sen. Joe Lieberman has come up with a proposal that would certainly help clarify how we respond to incidents like the Times Square bombing attempt (subscription required):
Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Chairman Joe Lieberman (ID-Conn.) is pursuing legislation that would strip the "citizenship rights" of Americans who commit acts of terrorism. Although there are already laws allowing the government to strip the citizenship of Americans caught fighting in the army of another nation the U.S. is at war with, Lieberman's legislation would create new authority to address individuals like Faisal Shahzad, the naturalized American accused of attempting to detonate a car bomb in Times Square on Saturday. The bill would amend the existing law "to include any individual apprehended, American citizen, who is found to be involved with a foreign terrorist organization as designated by the department of state would be deprived of their citizenship rights," Lieberman told reporters Tuesday. Although Lieberman's proposal would apply to foreign terrorist organizations, it would not appear to apply to domestic organizations like the Hutaree militia in Michigan.
Lieberman refuses to buy into the notion that these individuals are common criminals; they are combatants in war. It makes perfect sense to treat them identically to those who take up arms against the U.S. on behalf of another country. We'll see if the administration has the nerve to oppose it.

Our Chaco Ambassador Team member Lindsey shares her secrets for Do-It-Yourself Projects for Adventuring Families
Posted On: Thursday, May 03, 2012 - Chaconians
1. Make a Hammock
Hammocks are the perfect vessel for lounging around camp, in the backyard or even in your minivan. They can be pretty expensive to buy, but are cheap and easy to make yourself.
All you need is a piece of fabric (or a sheet) and some type of cording (or webbing). There are two methods for assembling your hammock. One involves a sewing machine, the other doesn't even take it that far.
Get your instructions HERE.
2. Build a Mobile Kitchen
It used to be that cooking items were always the most time consuming thing for me to pack, and I inevitably forgot something. One day I hit up a thrift store and bought everything I would need to assemble a mobile kitchen (i.e a kitchen I would never need to re-pack). I organized it all in a plastic tote that goes on every camping trip with us. Gone are the days of using frisbees as plates and eating spaghetti with a knife.
Get a complete list of items HERE to build your own.
3. Assemble a Fix-lt Kit
The idea behind the fix-it (i.e. survival) kit is that whether you're hiking, backpacking, river-rafting, biking, or doing some other outdoor activity, any emergency that happens will generally fall into one of three categories:
a) Your equipment breaks.
b) You hurt yourself.
c) Something is inconvenient and annoying and needs an inventive remedy.
In all cases, the point is to fix the problem as best you can on the spot, making something that is 'good enough', and will get you back to the real world for a proper fix. Make a kit that contains all you need to fix most things that break when you're outside and away. I use my kit all the time!
Find out what you'll need to assemble your own HERE.

Power MOSFETs for DC-DC Conversion Tout Reduced Gate Switch Charge
Thu, 03/04/2010 - 6:06am
Toshiba America Electronic Components, Inc. has launched its latest generation of power MOSFETs for synchronous DC-DC conversion. The seventh generation trench process in the Toshiba fast switching series, UMOS VII-H, is asserted to enable a significant reduction in gate switch charge and on-state resistance (RDS(ON)) resulting in greater power efficiency. The first two MOSFETs in the UMOS VII-H series, TPCA8055-H and TPC8055-H, are intended for use in high efficiency DC-DC converter applications in mobile and desktop computers, servers, video game consoles, and other electronic devices, in which they convert input voltage to the level required for various subsystems such as the processor, memory and input-output devices. The new devices also feature fast switching, enabled through low gate charge (QSW) and low gate resistance (Rg).

CANNES, France — In "Carol," director Todd Haynes's 1950s-set lesbian romance, the subtle story of seduction is set into motion by a pair of soft grey leather gloves, left behind on a counter by mistake — or perhaps intentionally.
Carol Aird (Cate Blanchett), a married woman from the wealthy New Jersey suburbs, is out Christmas shopping for a gift for her young daughter. She begins a conversation with Therese Belivet (Rooney Mara), a quiet young woman who works in the doll section of a Manhattan department store. Read More »

"Mortadella Corndogs" are made with moretti beer Cheese, jalapeno honey mustard and a basil-fennel salad.
Though it serves classic Italian fare, executive chef Justin Haifley (a 2013 nominee for Food & Wine magazine's the People's Best New Chef: Midwest) cannot resist using rustic American influences in his menu. Nowhere is that more evident than on the three different pork appetizers we tried. The pork rillettes — a pork-belly confit — was a succulent spread served on crostini like an Italian open-face pulled-pork sandwich. Its piquant jalapeño honey mustard and pickled red onion provided a nice contrast to the meat's richness.

Myocardial infarction ("heart attack") is one of the most common causes of morbidity and mortality in the United States and the world1. It is precipitated by acute rupture of an atherosclerotic plaque leading to thrombotic occlusion of a coronary artery. The sudden cessation of blood flow leads within hours to massive death of heart muscle cells by apoptosis and necrosis1. Prompt myocardial reperfusion via angioplasty/stenting is currently the optimal treatment, but its effectiveness is limited by a narrow therapeutic time window2,3. Work over the past 25 years in lower organisms and mammals has led to the recognition that a significant portion of cell death - both apoptosis and necrosis - occurs in a deliberate and highly regulated manner4,5. This discovery has prompted re-examination of the possibility that cell death during myocardial infarction can be manipulated. It is hoped that the proposed work will provide the basis for the development of a drug to limit the size of myocardial infarction and/or decrease its speed of progression. it is critical to model both the ischemic and reperfusion phases of myocardial infarction ("ischemia-reperfusion") in a cell-based system. Hydrogen peroxide models the oxidative stress of reperfusion (reperfusion phase), while 2-deoxy-D-glucose, an inhibitor of glycolysis, simulates the metabolic stress of ischemia (ischemic phase). While other death stimuli operate during myocardial infarction in vivo, oxidative stress and the metabolic stress of ischemia would be considered the two most critical of these pathophysiological events in "acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction".

text: Limelight is a lightened coppery bronze with a warm golden shimmer and glitter. It's more orange than Urban Decay Blunt but not by much. It's a lighter version of Urban Decay Half-Baked. Funny enough, some of the lightness of the shade is due to the drier texture and uneven color payoff (which is decent but not great). I had similar issues with this shade as I did with Limelight, just not to the same degree.

BUFFALO, NY – The Medaille College women's soccer team evened their Allegheny Mountain Collegiate Conference (AMCC) record to 2-2 with a 1-0 overtime win over Hilbert College on Wednesday afternoon. With the loss, the Hawks fall to 3-7 on the year and 0-4 in AMCC play.
Hilbert keeper Kelly Goodwin (Niagara Falls, NY/Niagara Falls) held the Lady Maverick's of Medaille scoreless through regulation. At 6:40 of overtime Medaille's Leah Mazzullo ripped a shot off of the Hawks Lucy Zver (Jasper, NY/Jasper-Troupsburg) that trickled into the goal for the game winner.
The visiting Hawks controlled play most of the game, but could not capitalize off of nine corner kick attempts. Goodwin ended the afternoon turning away six Maverick shots in the losing effort.
The Hawks will look to regroup on Saturday, October 8 when they travel to AMCC foe Frostburg State for a 1:00 pm game.

Updated at 2:25 p.m. on Nov. 24 to reflect continuing legislation.
The federal government would fund research into available treatment options to determine the most cost-effective ones available to physicians.
Executive Summary
Medicare's spending boom in recent decades is inextricably linked to a health care system that rewards doctors and hospitals for using new and more expensive treatments. Studying the cost effectiveness of different medical procedures alone won't suddenly make physicians more cost-conscious, but proponents of this offset hope it would be a start.
These studies are already prevalent in some industrialized countries with universal health care. When a new medical treatment is proposed in Great Britain, for example, the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence asks "what else is out there, is it essentially worth the extra money," according to Robert Blendon, a professor of health policy and political analysis at Harvard.
Those decisions can be controversial. In New Zealand, a similar review agency called PHARMAC initially denied women with breast cancer the drug Herceptin, proven in American trials to be effective at keeping cancer in remission. Public outcry eventually forced PHARMAC to approve Herceptin, but only for a nine-week course, not the recommended 12 months.
The stimulus package set aside $1.1 billion for comparative effectiveness research, and some proposed health care reform plans would spend even more. Sen. Jon Kyl, R-Ariz., fought the $1.1 billion this spring and spotlighted countries like Britain as cautionary tales.
"Think about this a moment," Kyl said on the Senate floor in April. "Do you want Washington bureaucrats, such as those who brought you the AIG mess, making your health care decisions for you and your family?"
Proponents of these studies in the U.S. counter that the goal is not to ration health care but merely to compile a list of the best treatments, not necessarily in terms of cost but pure medical efficacy.
Max Savings
Given the necessary research outlay, the CBO does not anticipate any net savings until after 2019. Given some modest cost cuts resulting from the studies' findings, the CBO estimates $860 million in research spending between 2010 and 2019.
Works Best When Combined With
Two other offsets, if implemented simultaneously, could help speed up the timeline for government savings. The first is health IT.
"The clinical trials are long and expensive to do," Blendon explained. "The only way people envision this is with huge piles of data and you can go through and, say, compare 50,000 people with lower back pain and figure out what works and for whom."
With electronic medical records, research on the comparative effectiveness of different treatments will be faster and cheaper. Without it, the federal government may be better off relying on private industry's research, despite its obvious biases.
Once verdicts on the cost-efficiency of different treatments start trickling in, it won't matter much if doctors, insurers and patients aren't adopting those recommendations. To that end, changing the way seniors pay for Medicare and potentially restricting supplemental insurance policies could go a long way. If patients have to pay a larger share of their medical coverage out of pocket, they are more likely to find the most cost-efficient treatment, instead of the newest or most expensive.
Both the Senate and House plans would establish comparative effectiveness councils to study and report on the best medical treatments.

We lost the house. Damn. At least I have a cute baby.
Son of a bitch, so sorry! What would we do without our cute babies?
By Sarah on 2005 11 12
*HUGS* That is a bummer. You're making me relive all these memories growing up of my parents frantically trying to get out of the rapidly-going-downhill neighborhood we grew up in… we looked at zillions of houses and they made offers on bunches of those zillions… We ended up FINALLY moving to a nice house in the country when I was 13, but it took forever to get there. Not to discourage you, but to say HANG IN THERE!! The right house has to come along eventually! (It does make it interesting down the road… you can drive by all these houses you have looked at or bid on and say I've been in there!)
And YES! At you do have a CUTE baby!!

So sorry you didn't get the house. But that baby would be cute in any house!

I found the food tasty but a bit bland (not spicy) . I agree with the other reviewers that the service is mediocre. Just one thing though, make sure to check your bill, lot of mistakes , could be because it was a busy time(sunday noon)but still my next table got a wrong bill, so did we!

This is the best Indian food I have had. Great variety of vegetarian dishes. I recommend doing a multi dish plate and sharing with family and friends. Great place for a big group dinner.

I've eaten here once before and loved it, I went for the second time last night and I was not disappointed. I had the samosas and pakora to start, the green cilantro sauce they serve with them is divine. I had the Avial as my main and it was also fantastic. Service is so/so, but the food is so incredible it doesn't matter. I couldn't stop mmmming the whole time, and now I'm eating my leftovers for lunch and they're just as good as last night if not better. Fantastic place whether you are vegetarian or not, it's just the BEST!

We were there last evening when the restaurant was relatively empty. As the crowd started to build up and we were ordering our post meal coffee - the owner had the audacity to ask if it was okay to make it "To-go"...because he promised the people waiting to have a table in 10 mins. He was brash and handed out our check even before we had finished our meal. We use to love the restaurant for its food but after last nights experience and extremely poor service, I would refrain from going there unless you want to be treated as a take-out customer

I've tried practically every restaurant on Lexington and happened to go to Chennai Garden today for their $6.95 lunch buffet. The food was absolutely to die for! Every dish was authentic in its preparation. You could tell that the chef didn't just use the same gravy for different dishes. I usually dislike Indian eggplant, but the curry that day was absolutely delicious! I was thoroughly impressed and hope to come back for more!
Posted by Kravitz on 08/01/2009
Consistently excellent vegetarian Indian fare, with some unusual menu offerings that you don't see in most NYC Indian restaurants. The service is consistently indifferent -- perfunctory to the point of being surly -- however.
Posted by AnotherGirlInMurrayHill on 06/28/2009
I eat here about once a week. The food is always amazingly delicious. It tastes like real homemade Indian food. And the menu is all vegetarian with vegan options. The atmosphere is average. The service can be either great or just okay depending on the server. Go for the food! I highly recommend!

Green makes rare appearance in spotlight for Spurs
SAN ANTONIO - When Danny Green stepped up onto the Spurs' newly minted media scaffold, this one built in a chilly corner on the event level floor of the AT&T Center to accommodate the additional media that the Finals stage brings, he didn't know what to do. A Spanish writer raised his hand so that the moderator would call on him for the first question, but Green took it as a friendly wave and awkwardly shot back a smirk. After a minute of deafening silence, a nervous Green tried to kickoff the conversation, letting out a quick "What's up?" to the crowd of reporters.

Besides this functional aspect, the ring was no doubt worn as a mark of Sheshonq's status and wealth.

I just ran across this article as well. I do not want to speculate but I find it interesting!! ____________________________________ Skype has named Tony Bates, a former senior vice president of Cisco, as its CEO and a member of the board of directors........In August Skype filed for an IPO on NASDAQ. There has since been speculation that Cisco was looking to buy Skype, but this was dampened when Skype announced a strategic relationship with Cisco rival Avaya. Full article at: http://www.itwire.com/it-industry-news/strategy/42256-skype-snatches-ciscos-enterprise-chief-for-ceo-role
The Avaya/Skype Strategic Agreement
Today, Avaya and Skype announced a strategic agreement for unified communications and collaboration. As part of Avaya's DevConnect team, I'm always excited to see us expanding our ecosystem of partners and solutions, but this one is especially interesting.
To boil it down to a very simple thought, this agreement's goal is to enable enterprises in the U.S. market to seamlessly connect their corporate communication systems, including contact centers, with the global Skype community, be they customers, suppliers, partner or employees. This will start with voice, but will expand to full presence-aware video-enabled collaboration capabilities in mid-2011.
Now let me be clear on that last part. We aren't suggesting that Enterprise end users will use Skype™ software on their desktop PCs. With our existing Avaya one-X® Communicator and other one-X tools, as well as with our newest Avaya Flare™ experience, we believe that we are already offering enterprises the best communication tools and user experiences possible.
Today, IT organizations face challenges. End-users install Skype on enterprise PCs, purchase Skype's paid communication products, and maintain varying work patterns by communicating with internal contacts in a manner different than they might with external contacts (through Skype).
The objectives of the agreement are to actually deliver greater control to the IT organization, and increased flexibility to the enterprise end-user in several key ways. First, through an arbitrage model, IT organizations can save money by leveraging Skype Connect™ to enable enterprise users in the U.S. to make voice calls to landline and mobile numbers all over the world. And they can also save on in-bound call center toll-free services by enabling Skype-connected users to call directly in to the contact center. All of the back-end enterprise contact center capabilities, self service and intelligent routing to the right agents remain the same, but these incoming Skype calls no longer incur 800-number charges or International rates to support these customers
The capabilities already present in Avaya Aura™, CS 1000, IP office and BCM allow telecom administrators to treat these Skype calls like any other inbound call, applying full control over routing, blocking and other call handling capabilities. Our strategic agreement with Skype is about expanding the reach and convenience of enterprise communications to the whole Skype community
But the bigger, long term benefits of the agreement come from the first-of-its-kind federation model, which will enable a Skype user to appear to the enterprise user as any other enterprise user would today. The rich presence information delivered for Avaya communication services will include Skype presence, so external Skype users can view presence for corporate contacts and vice versa. The multi-modal capabilities available for one-to-one and multi-party collaboration capabilities will include Skype video calling capabilities.
Returning to my earlier point–we are not suggesting that I'd use a Skype client in the office. Instead, it means that I will be able to add non-enterprise Skype users as a personal contact, see their Skype presence and availability through the Avaya Flare experience, and seamlessly create audio- and video-enabled communication sessions with them just as if they were one of my enterprise peers.
In his NoJitter editorial Avaya Dials Up Skype As A Partner, Zeus Kerravala of the Yankee Group also touched on an element that is very near and dear to me:
Here's another hidden benefit here to Avaya that at the time of writing had not been discussed by Avaya and that's the impact this partnership could have on its developer community, DevConnect. If you've read what I've written in the past you'll know that my belief is that the long term winners in this space will be determined by the vendor's ability to leverage a software community to develop "UC enabled applications". To date, Avaya has easily been the most aggressive UC vendor with respect to building a developer community.
As we further deliver on the Avaya-Skype relationship, I certainly hope to see an expansion from both the Avaya and Skype developer communities. Even prior to this announcement, we've had DevConnect partners like Empix, whose evolve platform offered Skype integration capabilities for Avaya IP Office.
I'm excited by the opportunities this new strategic alliance will open for our customers, our joint development community, and for both Avaya and Skype.
Due to an error on the my part, an earlier draft was inadvertently published. This is the final version I meant to actually post. Apologies, Jon.

Great insights Jon. It is really an incredibly exciting announcement and the more I read up on it, the greater the appreciation I have for the vast potential business possibilities it opens up for enterprise customers connecting to Skype's 560 million user community. A recent article I read in Network World titled, Q&A: SIP pioneer/Cisco Fellow jumps ship to Skype (published 6.28.2010), provided some very fascinating numbers and statistics which really helps put things into perspective: 1. From the article, it mentions that of the 560 million registered users, 23 million are online simultaneously at a time 2. In terms of minutes, they have done about 250 billion worth of minutes of Skype-to-Skype calls since they started. 3. Skype Currently accounts for 12% of all international calls (not just voice over IP international calls Jonathan Rosenburg points out) but all international calls worldwide - a growth of 50% year-over-year compared to 2009. 4. Skype is preloaded on eight out of 10 PC's.

Apple has released some interesting numbers about the success of the company's apps and Appstore. It's possible (well, in fact it's darn easy) to back calculate some of the average numbers from what they tell us. For example, the average app download makes its developers 17.5 cents.
Apple® today announced that customers have downloaded over 40 billion apps*, with nearly 20 billion in 2012 alone. The App Store℠ has over 500 million active accounts and had a record-breaking December with over two billion downloads during the month. Apple's incredible developer community has created over 775,000 apps for iPhone®, iPad® and iPod touch® users worldwide, and developers have been paid over seven billion dollars by Apple.
That's including all in app purchases and revenues by the way, that's not just the original sale. It's also not much changed from the 16 cents per download from the previous numbers.
Another number we can gain from this is that the average app, over its lifetime, earns around $9,000. That's the mean though: the median would be much much lower. For we've very much got a power law going on here. A few apps are making tens of millions, one or two over $100 million, and most make nothing at all (obviously so for the free ones) or close to it even if they're trying to charge.
What these numbers do is aid in clarifying whether writing apps is really a game that you, or anyone else, wants to get into. Sure, of course, your idea is one that's going to break the $100 million barrier. But it's very much a lottery. With those lottery style winnings to: and odds.
Given the power law in operation here it's clear and obvious that the majority of apps developers are losing money. That's OK, many of them will be making it up in others ways (Google doesn't charge anything for Maps for example, nothing that turns up in these figures. But they obviously think it's worth it for the ad revenue.).
But even most paid apps (sorry, those that developers desire people to pay for or make in app purchases from) will be, at that $9,000 mean revenue number, losing money. All of which is great for us consumers: we have people spending their money providing us with things. But not so good for those looking to write apps of course.

Get ready for another wild ride when an expansion to the superb Battlestar Galactica board game arrives this fall. Battlestar Galactica: Daybreak Expansion, from Fantasy Flight Games, adds characters from the final episodes of BSG's Season Four such as Lieutenant Louis Hoshi, Viper pilot Hot Dog, creepy attorney Romo Lampkin, as well as Cylon leaders such as the homicidal D'Anna Biers.
To add an interesting touch, existing characters from the original game will have alternate character cards. According to Fantasy Flight's description:
Over the course of the fleet's harrowing journey, each member of Galactica's crew has been fundamentally changed by humanity's many trials. Some have evolved, filling new and much-needed roles. Others have fallen into depression and despair. One thing, however, is certain: the crew that reaches Earth will be very different from the one that escaped Caprica. To reflect these profound evolutions of character, Daybreak includes four alternative character sheets for familiar crew members. Lee Adama, for example, grows to become more than just a viper pilot; he becomes a politically savvy man of the people. Which version of Lee Adama will you choose to help guide the fleet home?
One change I am looking forward to is in the troublesome "Cylon Sympathizer" rule. Daybreak will have an option to replace it with a Mutineer card in the Loyalty deck; a player who draws the Mutineer cars then draws a second Loyalty card. This apparently means that the other players will know there this a mutineer on the Galactica, but they can't be sure whether he is Human or a hostile Cylon (which pretty much summarizes the game in general). The Cylons also receive Motive cards, which require them to fulfill certain agendas to win.
Of course, no BSG expansion would be complete without new Event cards with the usual array of unpleasantness for the Human. The sample cards on the Daybreak page show "Violent Outbursts" and "Unorthodox Plan", among others, and there will be a new type of ship (Assault Raptor) and "miracle" tokens to mark a character's special ability. There will also be optional rules for "The Search of Home", which will focus on the Galactica's hunt for Earth.
I'm a huge fan of the original Battlestar Galactica game. I haven't played the Pegasus expansion, though friends tell me adding a second battlestar to the game is a bit unwieldy. I am very curious to see how Daybreak works out. If it's as good as it sounds, it should enhance one of the best board games on the market.

Ever wonder when your copy of Windows was installed? Me neither.
But, today I was poking around in the registry and stumbled across this key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\InstallDate
Which is a dword value holding the number of seconds since that fateful day you reinstalled windows last.
(Actually, an offset from 12 midnight, 1/1/1970.)
So naturally I had to write a little applet to pull the value and display it in an easy-to-read format. As a bonus, you get a real-time update, for those of us with compulsive disorders.
Please download your copy today, and report back the oldest living Windows installation. The winner will get a hearty thumbs-up and a stern reminder to knock-on-wood.
PS... Is there a forum better suited for posting goofy self-written goodies like this? If so, feel free to move it, forum gods.
UPDATE #1: Edited the reg key for accuracy. D'oh!
UPDATE #2: Edited description of what the dword stores. Feh.
UPDATE #3: New 1.1 version has Windows uptime display.
