Go to deafmac.org and follow the steps, my wife's phone had the same problem and deafmac.org cleared it up, make sure to check your wifi is turned on after you power your phone back on, Peace!

I'll add my name to the list of people having the same problem. I have an iPhone 4 and my husband has an iPhone 4S -- both running iOS5. We also have a Time Capsule as our wireless network, with one Airport Express to extend our network. When we using Facetime -- either with one another in the same house or with others outside our home -- the following events happen:
- Facetime crashes;
- Our connection to the wireless network is lost;
- Our Time Capsule reboots; and
- We have to wait until it returns to connect again.
I haven't seen this happen using our iPad, but I will check that tonight.
chrismix Nov 5, 2011 6:53 AM

Exact same problem!
Have been using FaceTime on our iMac and MacBook with family on the Internet since it came out over WiFi.
Now we also have an iPhone 4S in the mix and no longer than 10 seconds after initiating or receiving a FaceTime call on the iPhone 4S is the call dropped, WiFi connection lost for all the devices in the house and the ADSL modem/router displays either a full reboot or PPPoE connection terminated message in the logs.
Something very odd and unusual is happening here and the iPhone 4S is definitely to blame; not FaceTime itself.

I have the same problem as the most of you :-( I´ve tried almost everything, opening ports, disabling firewall in router and nothing helped. Firstly I thought, that I´m the only one who has this kind of problem, but I´m glad, that not.
I don´t know if the problem is in my router or with iOS and iPhone .... hope that Apple will fix the problem with new firmware. But I don´t think so :-(

The same symptom manifests on my 4s when I try to do Airplay (sling music from the phone to an airport express). Total network crash after 10 seconds. Identical problem with Facetime. Related?

My girlfriend and I just bought the 4S few days ago also facing the same problem!!!
We've upgraded to iOS 5.0.1 already.
What happen to Apple??
Nick14erJunky Nov 25, 2011 1:25 PM
in response to Daghis
I have an iPhone 4S and I have the same problem. The modem I'm using is from Quest and has the WiFi and router built into it. Only difference is it will drop the connection to every device connected to it and after about a minute or so everything reconnects.

This is extremely annoying. I use this feature every day. Since upgrading to 4S I can no longer FT. I really hope Apple gets it together and fixes this quickly. I Have Qwest (Century link) internet. Apple actually gave me a new device thinking I had a defective IPhone 4S! I have a feeling we could be waiting a while.....
Nick14erJunky Dec 9, 2011 12:48 AM
in response to Daghis
I'm guessing no one has found a way to resolve this issue. It's really starting to **** me off. My phone has randomly made my router crash every couple days. Usually I'm trying to load a video while on facebook or trying to pull an update when wifi disconnects and drops EVERY device connected to the router. Now I have the problem several times a day. My dad is to the point he won't allow me to use it on wifi. I was at Starbucks the other day using wifi because I have been trying to use facetime just ONCE and I killed their network twice. Something is wrong with the iPhone 4S anyone have any ideas on this?
timmodugdale Dec 9, 2011 3:02 AM
in response to Nick14erJunky
Sorry, I should have posted an update on this before.
I have been successful in solving this problem. There was a recent firmware update for Apple wireless hubs (Airport Express, Airport Extreme, Time Capsules) , in addition to recent iOS updates that seems to have resolved the problem.
Once I updated my Time Capsule firmware and iOS firmware, my facetime crashing problems were resolved. I do believe it was a combination of the iPhone 4S AND the wireless hub that were the cause. At any rate, I'm facetiming away with no problems.
D Anderson Dec 9, 2011 4:36 AM
in response to timmodugdale
I concur this for me seems to be resolved with Apple Airport Extreme firmware update.
Wufnu Dec 11, 2011 4:51 AM
in response to D Anderson
For those of us that do not use Airport Extreme, it's not resolved. Not even in the slightest. I did get the 5.0.1 update. My 4S is still a little router killing laser. Were I still younger, I'd probably use it to cause mayhem about town but now I'm just too old to be bothered. For now, I just want to see my family member's faces when I'm so far away. Apple, please teach your toys to play with others.
Maybe fix that image "cannot be saved because there is a problem with this image's file properties" problem while you're at it as well.
D Anderson Dec 11, 2011 5:08 AM
in response to D Anderson
To be clear I am using an iPhone 4 not 4S here.
Airport Extreme firmware update worked for me.
I'm sorry others are still having problems with third party routers.

The Funhouse
Thursday, August 11
If it weren't for all the unholy noise and distortion at the Funhouse, I'd probably be able to stand through a set near the stage without a pair of earplugs and a grimace. But just getting the tweaker-chic bartender to pay a little attention to the female patronage is an exacerbating chore, and things being what they are there--slow, inattentive, and immaculately loud--for the first two bands (10 Suns and Lamprey) I was completely blasted away from the stage to the outside smoking area/courtyard, where the sound was muffled enough to carry on a conversation.Full disclosure: I was catching up with an old friend, Argonaut guitarist Trina Lee Walker, who rails a shrieking axe for the band among her many other projects. Last night was my first time hearing her play with Argonaut--an established T-Town sludge-metal band led by Matt Sader, above left--and the band's set fell somewhere between the gritty rock of early Sabbath to the dark, meditative wanderings of Mogwai. It was heavy, but not so earsplittingly loud as to drive me back outside, and despite some effects hiccups (before the set Trina shared that "This place has a curse on me; the last time I played here, my amp blew up"), the four-piece carried on with the stalwart, thrashing drive of a band that doesn't give too much of a shit.
Thing is, you can walk into any dive bar in Tacoma and be greeted with a smile--it may be crooked, or strange, but it'll be there. It's been a while since I've lived in T-Town (Spanaway, if you must know), but last time I was at Puget Sound Pizza, I was belting out karaoke and rubbing shoulders with complete strangers. And yes, Trina was there. For all the Funhouse could be and should be, it was nice to have some Tacoma peeps warming up the place.
Reporter's Notebook:
Funhouse Pros: Cheap, stiff drinks.
Funhouse Cons: Tweakers behind the bar. Disproportionate ratio of amps to crowd.
Overheard at the show: Matt Sader, of a friend: "He called me a geek for wearing a Spiderman T-shirt, but he hunts Bigfoot."

Ohio State coach Urban Meyer on BCS: 'I think it's a flawed system'
Ohio State coach Urban Meyer has plenty of reasons to campaign against the BCS system, as computer rankings and strength of schedule could be two aspects that keep the Buckeyes from playing for a BCS title.
When prodded on the topic Monday, Meyer gave a brief criticism of the system but was sure to point out that controversy is not going away anytime soon.
"Without spending much time on it, because it's not fair to our team for me to spend much time on it, I will say this -- I think it's a flawed system," Meyer said Monday via ESPN.com. "But when you logically think about what the BCS people have done, and which obviously we're all part of, I think it was great for a while. I think you take an imperfect system and you do the best you can without hosting a playoff.
"I imagine there's going to be controversy with the playoffs too, now. It's not a 64-team playoff; you can only have four guys. What's that fifth team going to feel like?"
Ohio State will host Indiana then travel to Michigan for the regular season finale on Nov. 30. One more win locks up a place in the Big Ten title game, and if the Buckeyes finish that stretch 13-0 it still might not be enough to play for the BCS title if Alabama and Florida State finish undefeated as well.
But as Meyer pointed out, even a playoff (which would likely include Ohio State and Baylor if it started tomorrow) won't solve the issue of a team feeling snubbed by the process.

At this time, I'd like to turn the call over to Nick Sutton, our Chairman and CEO.
Nicholas J. Sutton
Thank you, Michael. Good afternoon and welcome to Resolute's third quarter 2012 earnings conference call. As we have done in previous calls, I will provide you with a brief overview of the Company and then an operations update. After that, Ted Gazulis, Resolutes Chief Financial Officer, will review our financial results, we then will take your questions.
I intend to keep my comments brief because I believe we covered most key points in our press release that crossed before the markets opened this morning.
First of all, I'm pleased to report that our third quarter production was 9,365 BOE per day, representing an 18% increase over the same quarter last year, and I remain confident that we will meet our year-over-year production growth guidance of 15% for the full year.
Our increased production came from all areas except for Hilight Fields, as Aneth Field contributed to approximately 44,000 equivalent barrels of additional production. Our Bakken activities contributed an additional 66,000 BOE, and the Permian contributed an additional 29,000 BOE.
Some quick math shows that 68% of the production growth in the third quarter came from our relatively newer assets in the Permian and the Bakken, while we still see continued growth from our legacy Aneth Field.
Our focus on production was accompanied by an equally aggressive effort to drive down well cost, and to enhance operational efficiencies; the details of which I will discuss in a moment.
As one final summary point, we ended the third quarter with a strong balance sheet and ample liquidity for funding our growth plans, and that includes acquisitions.
Drilling a little deeper, let's turn to our foundation asset, Aneth Field, which is the source of the majority of our oil production and which generates free cash flow for reinvesting in our projects in the Permian and Williston Basin.
The third quarter, our Aneth Field properties produced 6,399 BOE per day, up 8% from the same quarter last year. As compared to the second quarter of this year, Aneth Field production is down by about 250 BOE per day, but keep in mind that we sold production and reserves to Navajo Nation Oil and Gas during the third quarter.
Our year-over-year production increased in Aneth had many contributing factors, including on-going responds from Phases 1, 2, and 3 of our CO2 expansion project. Initial response from Phase 4, contribution from our DC IIC program, drilling new wells and sidetracking existing wells, and increasing run times and efficiencies from our Aneth central compression facility, and other field equipment upgrades.
Production from Phases 1, 2 and 3 of our CO2 expansion in the Aneth unit, continues to improve with a 15% increase over the third quarter of 2011 and an uptick of 5.5% over the second quarter of this year.
Phase 4 surface upgrades consisting mainly of upgrades to pipelines, the main battery and production headers are virtually complete. Phase 4 has CO2 related production and two wells close to Phase 3 injection. The one [inaudible] producing well in Phase 4 has seen CO2 breakthrough. This bodes well for further increases in production at Phase 4.
In our DC IIC project, we completed two additional producing wells that have each averaged 100 gross barrels a day of incremental production. We are on track to having 21 producers and 26 injectors online by year end.
Recall that our recompletion efforts in the DC IIC formation began two years ago. There are 18 wells that have been producing for one to two years, and these wells are still averaging 43 barrels per day of incremental production.

The redeeming quality of the Cars franchise has nothing to do with spectacular visuals, high-octane action or universal bathroom humor.

|Celebrating the Life of Katie Beckett of Cedar Rapids
|News Releases - General Info
|Written by Grassley Press
|Wednesday, 23 May 2012 10:58
Floor Statement of U.S. Senator Chuck Grassley
Celebrating the Life of Katie Beckett
Tuesday, May 22, 2012
Mr. President, I come to the floor today to celebrate the life of Katie Beckett. Never has the word "inspiration" been used more appropriately in describing someone, and today, I am grateful to be able to recognize the inspirational life of Katie Beckett.
Mary Katherine "Katie" Beckett was born in Cedar Rapids, Iowa on March 9, 1978. Five months after she was born, Katie contracted viral encephalitis followed by grand mal seizures. The encephalitis caused damage to her central nervous system and her respiratory system, and she was attached to a ventilator. She would be almost two years old before she could breathe on her own.
Under Medicaid law of the time, Katie could only receive care through Medicaid if she remained in the hospital even though she was able to receive care at home. Iowa Congressman Tom Tauke heard of Katie's situation and realized that it made no sense to keep a child in the hospital who could be at home with her family. He worked to convince the Administration that the system should be changed to allow states to provide Medicaid to children receiving care in their homes.
Ultimately, President Reagan took up Katie's cause intervening so that Katie could receive treatment at home and still be covered under Medicaid. This change in policy became known as "Katie Beckett waivers" and, to date, more than a half million disabled children have been able to receive care in their homes with their families rather than being forced into hospitals and institutions.
But Katie's story doesn't end there. As Katie grew up, as she battled to establish her own place in society as a young American with disabilities, she realized she had an opportunity to serve others who faced similar challenges. In her own words, this is from a piece Katie wrote in 2002 titled "Whatever happened to Katie Beckett?"
"I started my advocacy career at age ten. It was not my choice but rather a path chosen for me. It was not until I was twelve or thirteen that I realized the important work I was able to do because I was who I was and how much this work helped other kids."
Katie graduated with a degree in English from Mount Mercy College in Cedar Rapids. She lived in the community. She wanted to be a teacher and write novels for young people. She was fiercely independent, sometimes to the consternation of her mother, Julie. She was quick witted and funny and loved a good cup of coffee. She lived her life as a tireless advocate for the disabled. She testified before Congress several times and was a contributing voice on numerous groups dedicated to disability policy. When we took up policy proposals like the Family Opportunity Act and Money Follows the Person, we wanted Katie's perspective, and we depended on her advocacy in the community to get those laws passed.
Katie was the living embodiment of a person with disabilities participating and contributing in society. Mr. President, on Friday, May 18, Katie went home to be with the Lord.
She leaves behind thousands of lives touched by her presence. A light may go out, but a light lives on in those of us fortunate to have known Katie Beckett. We remain inspired to work every day to create opportunities for the disabled to participate and contribute and live the life of service and dedication that Katie did. Katie remains an inspiration.

Buzz Fawcett, who served as Guns & Ammo editor from 1964 to 1965, tries his hand with an early Colt AR-15.
Buzz Fawcett, who served as Guns & Ammo editor from 1964 to 1965, tries his hand with an early Colt AR-15.
I used to buy the Guns and Ammo magazine by single isssues back in the 1964 ( I was 8yr. old in 1964) and 1965,with my allowance money or money I would earn doing extra chores,,I wish I still had all those old magazines!!! At that time I remember that the design of colts, AR-15 was revolutionary, with revolutionary materials, for the day, and since it didn't look or favor any convention rifle at that time, I had ever seen, I was very reluctant to accept that style of firearm…. but it wasn't long after the announcement of the AR-15 that toy AR-15 started showing up in store, and of course I bought some.
I remember when John Stoner at Colt produced that AR-15…Correct me if I am wrong but didn't the early ones have a few glitches in them? IIRC something about the chamber wasn't chromed? causes feed and ejection problems, and then the dirt and water problem.. I also read or seen somewhere that Defense Secretary Robert McNamara had a lot to do with the mistakes of the early AR-15 which only goes to prove what I have know and said all along, Leave the politicians out of our Military decesions…..I also understand that after our troops were issued cleaning kits, and shown how to care for this new weapon, it became a bit hit with the troops…..
… Back in 2004 I bought one of these AR-15's that was made in 1969 from a friend ( used) got two, original magazines with it; gave 500.00 dollars for it; took it to the range that weekend and when I fired my first magazine through it,,, MAN, was I Hooked!!!!!!!!!! ………………. What a neat little rifle!!!! I kept that gun for a year or two and then unforturnally had to sell it.. I still miss my Colt AR-15 and probably will never find another one like I had ( a Colt) ever… I know, I know there are bushmasters, and others like DPM etc. But I don't think they are anywhere near what the Colt AR-15 is like I owned at one time…. It might be worthy to note here that at the time I bought my AR-15, I had already been a Ruger Mini-14 owner, so I was shooting .223 hand loads through that AR-15,, they worked well, no feed problems, no ejection problems………no jams,,,,,,,I was impressesed and somewhat surprized!!!!!
There were a few glitches but the biggest flaw in their early military days was that the soldiers who received them thought they never had to clean them, and therefore they fouled and jammed. Once the regular cleaning started then those issues really dropped off.
When a friend let me fire his Sp1 35 years ago I was sold. At 50 yards or so I emptied that magazine and was amazed.
I was used to my deer rifle and an old German 8mm "cannon" we used to shoot.
The Colt was the best deal I have ever made, And some how I am still blessed by that rifle
I love the AR-15 design. Initially, I didn't think the 5.56 round was worth anything but my experiences as of late have changed my mind and I am reloading it in full swing.
Anyone know what optic that is mounted on top of the Colt?
It a great looking gun. I like better then Glock or Sig. Actually I'm 45 calibre freak.
really i need guns 4 a skool project and we read the sign of the beaver and we need guns from the indians!!!!!

Sleep normally occurs in several stages. The sleep cycle includes:
The sleep cycle is repeated several times during the night.
With aging, sleep patterns tend to change. Most people find that aging causes them to have a harder time falling asleep. They awaken more often during the night and earlier in the morning.
Total sleep time stays the same or is slightly decreased (6.5 to 7 hours per night). It may be harder to fall asleep and you may spend more total time in bed. The transition between sleep and waking up is often abrupt, which makes older people feel like they are a lighter sleeper than when they were younger.
Less time is spent in deep, dreamless sleep. Older people average three or four awakenings each night. They are also more aware of being awake.
Older people wake up more often because they spend less time deep sleep. Other causes include needing to get up and urinate (nocturia), anxiety, and discomfort or pain from chronic illnesses.
Sleeping difficulty is an annoying problem. Chronic insomnia is a major cause of auto accidents and depression. Because older people sleep more lightly and wake up more often, they may feel deprived of sleep even when their total sleep time has not changed.
Sleep deprivation can eventually cause confusion and other mental changes. It is treatable, though. You can reduce symptoms when you get enough sleep.
Sleep problems are also a common symptom of depression. See a health care provider to find out whether depression or another health condition is affecting your sleep.
The elderly respond differently to medicines than do younger adults. It is very important to talk with a provider before taking sleep medicines. Avoid sleep medicines, if possible. However, antidepressant medicines can be very helpful if depression affects your sleep. Some antidepressants do not cause the same side effects as sleep medicines.
Sometimes, a mild antihistamine works better than a sleeping pill for relieving short-term insomnia. However, most health experts do not recommend these types of medicines for the elderly.
Use sleep medicines (such as benzodiazepines) only as recommended, and only for a short time. Some of these medicines can lead to dependence (needing to take the drug to function) or addiction (compulsive use despite adverse consequences). Some of these drugs build up in your body. You can develop toxic effects such as confusion, delirium, and falls if you take them for a long time.
You can take measures to help you sleep:
If you cannot fall asleep after 20 minutes, get out of bed and do a quiet activity, such as reading or listening to music.
When you feel sleepy, get back in bed and try again. If you still cannot fall asleep in 20 minutes, repeat the process.
Drinking alcohol at bedtime may make you sleepy. However, it is best to avoid alcohol, because it can make you wake up later in the night.

A recent issue of KMT magazine happens to have a really interesting article on the erecting of the obelisk in St. Peter's Square (Spring 2012, pages 37-51). Although the precise origin of the obelisk is not well understood—meaning to which Egyptian historical period it belonged or who commissioned it—Caligula had it erected in his favorite place, the Circus Maximus. It was there, nearby the obelisk, where Peter is said to have been crucified, upside-down on the cross.
That is why the obelisk interested the Vatican. Constantine razed the Circus Maximus and built the original Basilica of St. Peter on its foundations, with the obelisk still standing. However, the new basilica was begun in 1506 CE when the cornerstone was laid by Pope Julius II, by which time the old site at the Circus Maximus had fallen into ruins and the obelisk nearly forgotten. It was suggested in the early sixteenth century that the obelisk be moved to the new site. This fell under the sponsorship of Pope Sixtus V, who was very much interested in maintaining and glorifying Christiandom's architecture.
Domenico Fontana was the architect who won the contract to move and re-erect the obelisk. How he managed to do this is a fascinating tale and well told in the KMT article, but it's not the subject of this discussion. Simply put, the main reason the obelisk was moved to the new Basilica of St. Peter to become the centerpiece of the Square, is that the obelisk had witnessed the crucifixion and martyrdom of St. Peter. It was a natural fit.
The early Church delighted in claiming the monuments and icons of pagan religions for its own purposes. The obelisk in the Square may have been a pagan symbol, but note the ornamentation the Church added to the top to convert it to a Christian symbol. The Church certainly did not want to promote or glorify the ancient pagan religions of Egypt or Mesopotamia or Greece or Rome—it wanted to show its prowess in subverting them.
Edit: Monk, I'm a Moderator at Egyptian Dreams. How long have you been there?

The Adidas Men's Climacool Boat Lace Water Shoe are lightweight, snug fitting and quick drying for all your outdoor activities.
Worth the $$
A sporty, comfortable water shoe. I like the firm sole and tennis shoe design. Great for outings that may include activities in addition to being in the water. I feel like they ran just a tad small but not enough to return them. Overall, worth spending extra $ over the cheaper sock style water shoes.
Fit: Feels too small

Route 66 is 2448 miles long. Route 66 was commissioned in 1926. Route 66 crosses 8 states and 3 time zones. Route 66 starts in Chicago, and ends in L.A. In 1926 only 800 miles of Route 66 were paved only in 1937 Route 66 got paved end-to-end. Route 66 is also know as "The Mother Road". During all of its life, Route 66 continued to evolve, leaving many abandoned stretches of concrete, still waiting to be found by the more adventurous traveler. In 1985 Route 66 was officially decommissioned, but for daily use it was replaced far earlier by the Interstates

The Lessons of TNR's Baghdad Diarist
The good news about the bad news the magazine is finally accepting.
As an editor whose backside once sizzled on the your-writer-is-a-big-fat-liar griddle, I'm as qualified as anybody to join the discussion about New Republic's now-repudiated Baghdad diarist, soldier Scott Thomas Beauchamp. TNR Editor Franklin Foer's 7,000-word response this week essentially pleads guilty to the five-month-old charges that Beauchamp fabricated Iraq war scenes in his pseudonymous dispatches for the magazine ("War Bonds," Jan. 29, 2007; "Dead of Night," June 4, 2007; and "Shock Troops," July 13, 2007).
Foer, whom I know well from his time as a Slate intern-writer from 1996 through 1998, declares at the end of his inquiry that the magazine's re-reporting and the 24-year-old Beauchamp's lack of cooperation make it impossible for the magazine to "stand by" Beauchamp's stories any longer.
The Weekly Standardand the blogs that unmasked Beauchamp, exposed his lies, and brought the magazine to heel deserve our thanks. But the lesson l'affaire Beauchamp teaches is not that liberal magazines can't be relied on to tell the truth about unpopular wars, or that only a magazine that employs military veterans can report fairly on war, or that young people can't be trusted to cover difficult stories, or that first-person stories are inherently unreliable, or that pseudonymous stories should be banned, or that greater institutional safeguards—such as better fact-checking—are needed to prevent future Beauchamps. The lesson it teaches is that journalism can't exist without risking an occasional Beauchamp.
That's no defense of the New Republic or Franklin Foer, mind you. He and the magazine embraced maximum hazard by giving an inexperienced writer and nonjournalist the cloak of anonymity to report from the battlefront. When the Weekly Standard and others attacked Beauchamp's work in July, Foer snottily shot back via the Washington Post's Howard Kurtz. "As the criticism mounts, Foer says he sees an ideological agenda," Kurtz wrote, and went on to quote Foer discounting the prejudices of his attackers: "Conservative bloggers make a bit of a living denying any bad news that emanates from Iraq." In his piece, he muses about the Standard's "ideological motives."
Please! It only stands to reason that TNR's ideological opponents should be the magazine's most intense critics. Foer doubly embarrasses himself by dismissing the arguments because of their origins and by hinting at a conspiracy.
Nor did Foer distinguish himself when he protested to the New York Observer in late October that it was "maddening to see the Army selectively leak" documents to the Drudge Report that he had tried to obtain through official channels. "This fits a pattern in this case where the army has leaked a lot of stuff to right wing blogs," he said.
Politicians disparage selective leaks, not journalists. If only Foer had repressed his sense of victimhood and applauded the release of information rather than whined.
Foer's TNR piece, titled "Fog of War," builds oddly, as if it's mounting a defense of Beauchamp's work and TNR's editing practices. For instance, Foer insists on continuing to call Beauchamp's placement of the now-famous disfigured woman in Iraq rather than Kuwait, where she allegedly suffered abuse, a "mistake." If Beauchamp had a sterling record, you might want to give him that benefit of the doubt. But given what we know about him from Foer's piece alone, he's owed no such deference. As the article turns the corner in the final paragraphs and withdraws its support from the controversial diarist, who has failed to give the magazine the complete cooperation it needs to defend him, it sounds as if Foer is hedging his position. The effect is as if a piece breathing life back into Beauchamp was at the last minute welded to his death portrait. Very odd.
The take-home lesson of Beauchamp isn't that young ornovice writers should never be given a chance. What a diminished world this would be if we had been denied the works of these writers when they were youngsters: David Remnick, Katherine Boo, Lester Bangs, Barton Gellman, Jane Kramer, Michael Kinsley, Jacob Weisberg (hey, boss!), Michael Herr, H.L. Mencken, Walter Lippmann, Mark Jacobson, Ryan Lizza, Tina Rosenberg, James Wolcott, Michael Lewis, Nora Ephron, Robert Novak (he was pretty good, I'm telling you!), Ron Rosenbaum, Susan Sontag, Andrew Sullivan, Hendrik Hertzberg, and so on.

With BSA Certification, Mexico's Economic Ministry Demonstrates Global Leadership In Managing Software Assets
WASHINGTON, Nov. 14, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- BSA | The Software Alliance today announced that the Ministry of Economy in Mexico has become the first government body in the world to earn BSA's Certification in Standards-Based Software Asset Management for Organizations, a program known as CSS(O).The credential demonstrates the Mexican government's commitment to promoting legal software use by implementing internationally recognized best practices for maintaining compliance with software licenses. "We launched the CSS(O) program a year ago in India and are excited to mark another milestone for the program today," said Jodie Kelley, BSA's General Counsel and Senior Vice President of Anti-Piracy. "The Ministry of Economy understands that strong intellectual property protection drives economic growth. By adopting world-class software asset management practices, the Ministry is setting an example for government agencies and private enterprises throughout Mexico and the rest of the world. We hope other governments take note and follow suit." As the first and only enterprise-level certification for software asset management to be based on a standard set by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), BSA's CSS(O) program affirms that an organization is compliant with all of its license agreements and that its management controls and procedures reflect the ISO standard. This helps reduce the legal and security risks associated with operating unlicensed software. It also increases operational efficiencies by ensuring workers have the best and most up-to-date software tools to do their jobs, and it can reduce costs by ensuring an organization is neither under-licensed nor over-licensed. Secretary of Economy Bruno Ferrari expressed gratitude and satisfaction with the CSS(O) certification. He explained that the decision to adopt internationally recognized best practices for software asset management reflects the Mexican government's policies upholding respect for intellectual property. He stressed that the government must lead by example in assuring no piracy is occurring in its operations. After a review conducted by one of the world's leading accounting firms, BSA also awarded certifications to several individual agencies within the Ministry of Economy, including the Federal Competition Commission, Federal Commission for Regulatory Improvement, Federal Attorney's Office of the Consumer, and ProMexico.

overwhelmed !Journal Entry: Thu Nov 4, 2010, 6:58 AM
i´m overwhelmed by the quantity of feedback and favorites coming in the last time !!! This is really rewarding for me and i´m very happy that my work is being credited by so many people.i want to thank everyone for faving my images personally but its near to impossible- i tried to do some quick copy paste of an thank you message but i feel bad to just copy paste and the system already thinks i´m a spammer...i´ll always try to respond to every comment i get but all these favorites are just impossible to respond- so the best i can do is to thank everybody who is faving my deviations here and now :
- Eating: homemade bread
- Drinking: coffee
overwhelmed ! by VaghaukWatch
©2010-2016 Vaghauk
Don't feel bad about not thanking everyone individually. I'm sure everyone being on dA long enough understands that it's impossible if one gets hundreds of messages where you can only reply "thank you".
already feel a bit better- thanks to you !
I haven't replied in long time since I have tons of messages and I feel stupid just typing something like "thanks" or "you're welcome". The truth is many people don't even remeber who you were if they surf trough the dA and haven't had any conversations with you before. It's the bitter truth but still the truth. It doesn't make you less an artist and look at the most popular ones; they don't thank anybody. You should do your art for yourself, not for anyone else. Different thing is when you're looking for a critique. Then I think you should reply to the comments.
I only thank or reply to the people who actually comment on my art. Everything else, I give them llamas and check out their galleries if there's anything worthy to suggest as a DD.

London: A rare supercomet is rushing towards the Sunfrom the outer solar system and at its peak it may outshine the Moon in November, 2013, astronomers claim.
First spotted in September this year, the comet is known as C/2012 S1 (ISON), New Scientist reported.
Its closest approach to the Sun will be in November, when Timothy Spahr of the Minor Planet Center at Harvard University expects it to put on as good a show as Hale-Bopp did in 1997.
Hale-Bopp is believed to be the most widely observed comet of the 20th century and one of the brightest seen for many decades.
Since this will be ISON's first trip to the inner solar system, it could contain volatile gases that other comets, making their umpteenth lap around the Sun, have lost.
Astronomers hope it will provide a pristine glimpse of the material in the outer solar system 4.6 billion years ago, when ISON formed.
The year will also herald celestial fireworks of a different flavour, owing to a gas cloud with three times Earth's mass heading towards the usually placid supermassive black hole at the centre of the galaxy, the report said.
The collision won't be visible to the naked eye, but X-ray telescopes will pick up radiation from the shock wave created as the cloud slams into the halo of hot gas around the hole.
As the black hole, called Sagittarius A, sits a mere 25,000 light years away – on our cosmic doorstep – the crash should provide an unprecedented view of material ploughing into a black hole.
It could even yield important clues about what happened 300 years ago, when the black hole was much brighter than now.
