Air Force, community reps plant trees across America
by Susan Wolbarst
Air Force Real Property Agency
4/28/2010 -
-- In recognition of the 40th anniversary of Earth Day on April 22, Air Force Real Property Agency officials enlisted the participation of people in
40 communities to plant a tree at one of 40 former and active Air Force bases
, from Hickam Air Force Base in Hawaii to the former Loring AFB in Maine, as well as the Pentagon.
"The trees symbolize the Air Force Real Property Agency's commitment to environmental restoration," said Robert Moore, AFRPA director.
The trees were planted on Earth Day, or as near to it as possible.
Some of the trees planted on Earth Day may live into the next century, seeing several decades of Earth Days to come, according to AFRPA officials. Tree species selected are as diverse as the places they'll be planted, including a Blue Palo Verde, the Arizona state tree suitable for desert conditions, to be planted at the former Williams AFB in Mesa, Ariz.; a red maple at Grand Forks AFB in North Dakota; a Valley Live Oak, a tree that can stand torrid summers, at the former McClellan AFB in Sacramento, Calif. Hardy, drought-tolerant native species were planted whenever possible.
Volunteers of all ages were approached to plant the trees on the former and active Air Force bases. Among them are Gaye Pappas, chairman of a group building a veterans memorial park near the main gate of the former Wurtsmith AFB in Michigan, and Boy Scouts from Honolulu, planting a tree on Hickam AFB.
In addition, Debra Tune, principal deputy assistant secretary of the Air Force for installations, environment and logistics, joined this Earth Day initiative by
planting a Valley Forge Elm
in the courtyard at the Pentagon in Washington, D.C.
Air Force Real Property Agency officials, coordinators of the Trees Across America initiative, have a twin mission of restoring and recycling property at closed Air Force Bases. To date, they have conveyed more than 76,000 acres of surplus Air Force property to benefit the public, optimizing assets such as runways and other infrastructure to strengthen local economies with jobs and commerce. Success stories from former Air Force bases include Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport in Arizona, which reportedly generates triple the revenue and many more local jobs than when it was Williams AFB, which closed in 1993.
Other communities which used to house Air Force bases still struggle, as the jobs lost to base closures have yet to be replaced. The current recession has hit those areas especially hard. But the effort to attract new businesses and public uses -- like colleges, aerial firefighting support, public safety training and distribution centers -- continues. By 2013, another 10,000 plus acres will be conveyed into public ownership.
As cleanup and economic rehabilitation efforts continue, trees will provide shade, beauty and oxygen for those living and working in these communities. Trees are recyclable and provide habitat, as well as many useful products. Some trees, such as the hybrid poplars at the former Chanute AFB in Rantoul, Ill., even help clean toxins out of landfills through a process known as phytoremediation.
A Chinese proverb says," The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago. The second best time is now."

More details have been made available in regards to the "Halo" mash-up pack for "Minecraft Xbox 360 Edition." According to a report by Play XBLA on May 19, a few lingering questions were answered for the latest DLC for the Xbox 360 port. The website revealed that it should be similar to the previously-released "Mass Effect" and "The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim" mash-up packs.
A pre-made world has been officially confirmed for the upcoming DLC as players will be able to explore several locations based of the first-person shooting franchise such as Blood Gulch, Sandtrap and Valhalla. The same mash-up pack also comes with 40 character skins, music tracks, textures and various items from "Halo." Finally, the menus and user interfaces were also remade.
An exact release date has not yet been provided for the "Halo" mash-up pack although it is expected to be made available in the near future. While the price was also not disclosed, the DLC should be priced at the same range as the aforesaid "Mass Effect" and "The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim" mash-up packs at $3.99 on the Xbox Live Marketplace. You can find a new screen of the upcoming expansion from the official "Halo Waypoint" Twitter page near the top of this article.
Aside from the mash-up pack, Microsoft Studios will be making more announcements in regards to the "Halo" franchise in the near future. The company is going to provide another look at the sequel, which was recently confirmed with an official name of "Halo 5: Guardians," at E3 2014. A report from Engadget also claims that "Halo: The Master Chief Collection" should be announced at the event as well. The compilation comes with the first four games of the series but won't include "Halo 3: ODST" and "Halo: Reach."
"Minecraft Xbox 360 Edition" recently went past its two year anniversary since launching on the Xbox Live Marketplace. The same game was also released a year later as a physical disc. Both versions ended up selling well as the two combined to accumulate over 12 million copies sold across all territories around the globe.
4J Studios, the developer behind the Xbox 360 port, is hoping that the upcoming "Minecraft PS4 Edition," "Minecraft Vita Edition" and "Minecraft Xbox One Edition." The company is planning to launch the three new iterations by the end of 2014 in North America and other regions. Xbox 360 players will be able to import their saves to the Xbox One version of the open-world sandbox game.

Is there a person that you like that claims he/she likes you back? Have you two been promising you'll be together someday? Is there something preventing the two of you from being together whether it is a current relationship, family, friends, or distance? When two people really like each other there shouldn't be anything too powerful to stand in the way. This is not to say that parents don't have the right to stop you from seeing one another, but you could always sit your parents down with the person you like so you can come up with a compromise.
Depending on the situation, it could be difficult determining whether you are being given false hope or an actual promise. A current relationship, family, friends and distance are some of the most common reasons that would prevent two people from being together.
If the person you like, or even if you yourself is in a current relationship then shouldn't you end it? You cannot go on being with someone while wanting to be with someone else. If you have lost all feelings for the person you are with then you should end it before it gets worse. The sooner you end it the better off everything will be.
But what if the person you like is in a relationship? Do they constantly give you the false hope that they're going to leave the one they're with for you? Remember that actions speak louder than words. Talk can be cheap, especially when it comes to promises. If they have been "promising" for weeks upon weeks that they are going to leave their current relationship, chances are they just don't want to lose both of you. There is a possibility that they want to keep you around until the one they're with leaves them.
In this situation, you are known as a back-up plan and ultimately leaves you with false hope. The person you like just doesn't want to be alone so they are keeping you around until things go south with their significant other. One sign that will help you look for this is if they constantly say they are going to leave the person but they don't. This could also mean that they still have feelings for that person. If this is so then there is a possibility you could be a rebound after everything is said and done.
Another sign you are being given false hope is if they don't talk to you much, especially about the situation. Sometimes they will do this but to keep you around they will talk to you once in a while saying sweet things to get you to hold on. This is a dirty trick that many people do just to get their way, especially if they know the person would do anything for them.
If the reason the two of you aren't together is because of family issues, just sit everyone down and talk. If your parents are forbidding you to see this person then there is a chance they know something you don't. Ask your parents or have them ask theirs if they are willing to sit down and maybe come up with a compromise.
Do your friends not accept the one you like or vice versa? It is true that sometimes your best friend or close friends know what is good for you. Simply talk to them about it and ask them why they disapprove. Explain to them everything you see that they don't. Be sure to take their point of view in to consideration because there might be a reason they disapprove. But if these people are just your friends and are disapproving because they don't like the person then their opinion shouldn't matter.
It can be difficult to be with someone when there is distance blocking the two of you from physically being together. Watch out if they are constantly telling you "we'll be together soon". It is true that it takes money to travel but if they are going on about being together for months then you may need to open your eyes. You could check to see what their reaction would be to you going to visit.
You could simply tell them "well I saved up some money and I already booked my ticket to come see you." Take note as to what their reaction is and how excited they seem. Instead of pretending you could also book a ticket and just surprise them. Be careful if you do this however, especially if you don't know them personally. It is advised that if you don't know them personally then you should bring a friend or family member with you. If they truly want to see you, they'll show at least some excitement.
Until the two of you are officially together in a relationship, keep your heart on guard. Don't give them your all if they aren't willing to do the same and don't fall in to the false hope trap. Remember that words mean nothing when no actions are being taken.

1:Mulligan- A sex position which involves the use of the anal, and a shoe.
Last night, Lilly and I did the mulligan all night long.
dari Cpry-Ryan-Tony-Justin Minggu, 21 Agustus 2005
Top Definition
A Mulligan, in a game, happens when a player gets a second chance to perform a certain move or action; usually due to lack of skill or bitter luck. A "Do-Over". Like getting an "Extra Play" in pinball due to sinking the ball before obtaining an arbitrary amount of points.
If your opening hand in Magic: The Gathering sucks bad; just call "Mulligan", reshuffle, and draw new cards.

When a dating relationship is brutally derailed by submerged emotional issues unknown to either person. If the derailer is allowed a second chance by the derailed, its a Mulligan. Even more so it accompanied by a decent bitch slap.
Wes: Dude, I can't believe all this time I didn't realize I was a sad bastard with ungodly sorrow, projecting my emotional issues on you! Please bitch slap my issues back into my subconscious and give me a Mulligan.
Laura: Fine. Take me to a nice restaurant on Friday night and it'll be fine...SMACK!

Defenseman Aaron Ekblad's dream of playing in the NHL is one step closer to reality. The Florida Panthers announced Wednesday that they had signed Ekblad to a three-year entry-level contract.
"We are very pleased to have signed Aaron," said general manager Dale Tallon. "He is a talented, strong, smart and hardworking defenseman who is ready to take the next step in his professional career. We look forward to watching him compete and develop at our prospects camp, throughout our main training camp and in preseason competition."
The Panthers selected Ekblad with the first overall pick in the 2014 NHL Entry Draft. He spent last season as the captain of the OHL's Barrie Colts. In 58 games with the Colts, he had 23 goals and 53 points. Ekblad sustained a concussion on Aug. 5, while attending Canada's junior evaluation camp, but expects to be ready for the start of Panthers rookie camp next week.
"We'll take our time," said Tallon. "We'll be careful. He seems to be 100 percent. We'll see how it goes the first few days of camp. If he's ready and willing and healthy, we'll let him go. But we'll be careful."
At 6'4" and 216 pounds, the 18-year-old Ekblad already has NHL-ready size. He should get every opportunity to crack the Panthers' opening night roster, something he is confident that he will be able to do.
"If you don't believe in yourself you're putting yourself behind the eight-ball," said Ekblad. "I do believe in myself. I believe I can be on this team opening night. I'm very confident in that. I feel like I'm ready. I couldn't be in a better position than where I am."

Reimbursement through government programs
There are government programs that provide reimbursement for qualified medical expenses:
- On a local level—county offices that provide services to the aging
- On a state level—Medicaid
The definition of a "qualified medical expense" varies, and the list of covered product categories can change from program to program, but they generally include adult incontinence supplies.
Expenses for incontinence products may be tax deductible if you can demonstrate that they are needed as a result of a specific medical condition. According to IRS guidelines, "You cannot include in medical expenses the amount you pay for diapers or diaper services, unless they are needed to relieve the effects of a particular disease."
It is always a good idea to have a letter from your doctor that addresses your medical need for incontinence products.

text: Teaching Kids to Wash Their HandsIt's hard enough to get grownups to wash up. Only two-thirds of adults wash their hands after they use the restroom, studies show.How do we get our kids into the handwashing habit, then? The obvious first step is to practice what you preach. Wash your hands before eating or cooking a meal, after using the bathroom, and after working or playing with your hands.More than half of food-related illness outbreaks are caused by unwashed or poorly washed hands, says the American Society for Microbiology. For example, outbreaks of hepatitis A in children in daycare centers have been directly connected to lack of handwashing after changing diapers or using the bathroom.Other illnessesOther pathogens, like E. coli, Shigella, and Norwalk virus, have also been spread by lack of hand-washing. Spread of other conditions, like respiratory infections, impetigo, and conjunctivitis (pinkeye), also can be prevented by washing hands with soap and water.Tell your children to wash their hands before a meal, after using the bathroom, after playing, and after touching or petting animals. Show them how to do it. Don't get frustrated: It takes a while for the habit to become second nature, says the Association of Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology (APIC).Children know when and why and how to wash their hands, but they forget to, the APIC says. They will wash their hands if the dirt is the obvious kind like mud or finger paints. Less obvious dirt and germs tend to be ignored.Tips for washingTry these techniques:For visibly dirty hands, wash in warm running water. This is more effective at dissolving oils.Wet your hands and then lather with soap.Wash all hand surfaces. This includes palms, back of hands, fingers, and fingernails.Rub lathered hands together for at least 20 seconds, and up to 30 seconds (about as long as it takes you to recite the ABCs or sing "Twinkle twinkle little star").Rinse hands thoroughly with running water, then dry. If a child is too small to reach the sink and can be safely cradled in one arm, hold the child to help him or her wash hands. A child who can stand should either use a child-sized sink or stand on a safety step at a height that allows the child's hands to reach the running water. Another method for a child who can't reach the running water and is too heavy to hold is to wipe the child's hands with a damp and soapy paper towel. Use another clean, wet paper towel to rinse soap off the hands. Dry the hands with a third clean paper towel. Wash your own hands after helping the child.Soap and water are best. If they are not available, hand sanitizers can be used. Use an alcohol-based sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol. Apply the sanitizer to the palm and rub all over the hands and fingers and let them air dry. Health Encyclopedia A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z Search Health Library

Tips -(1)Long Live Your Laptop Battery!
Laptop batteries are like people–eventually and necessarily, they die. And alike people, they do not obey Moore's Law–You can not expect the following year's batteries to last twice as long as this year's. Batteries engineering science might improve a bit over time (after all, there's plenty of financial incentive for better battery), just, when interesting possibilities might pop up, do not expect major battery breakthroughs in the near future.
Though your battery will finally be die, right care your battery can put off the necessary. Here's how to keep your laptop batteries working for as long as possible. With lucky, it could last until you need to replace that aging notebook computer (maybe with a laptop computer having a longer battery life).
I have also enclosed more tips on keeping the battery going longer between charges, so you can keep longer without AC power.
Don't Run It Down to Empty
Squeezing every drop of juice out of a lithium ion battery (the type applied in nowadays laptop computer*) strains and breaks them. Doing these once or twice will not kill the battery, but the cumulative result of often discharging your battery will shorten its lifetime.
(On that point actually an exception to this rule–a circumstance where you had better run down the battery all the way. I will get to that later.)
The good news: You probably can not run down the battery, anyway–at least not without going to a lot of trouble to do so. Almost modern laptop computer* are designed to close down before the battery is empty.
In fact, Vista and Windows 7 go with a setting for just this purpose. To check it, click Start, type power, and choose Power selections. Click any one of the Change plan settings links, then the modify advanced power settings link. In the resulting dialog box, scroll down to and expand the Battery selection. Then expand Critical battery level. The setting will probably be about 5 percent, which is a good place to leave it.
XP has no such native setting, although your laptop computer might have a vendor-supplied tool that does the same job. Myth: You should never recharge your batteries all the time.
There's considerable controversy on this point, and in researching these article I interviewed experts . Just I have go down on the side of recharging all the way. The advantages of leaving home with a fully-charged battery–you can use your personal computer longer without AC power–are worth the slight risk of doing damage.
Keep It Cool
Heat can break the battery, and cut its overall life.
While you use your laptop computer,please be sure the vents are unblocked. Never work with the laptop computer on pillows or cushions. If possible, place it on a raised stand that allows for plenty of airflow.
As well, clean the vents every so often with a can of compressed air. You can buy this for a few dollars at any computer store. Be sure to follow the directions on the can, and do it only when the laptop is off.
Give It a Rest
If you will be working exclusively on AC power for a week or more, please move out the batteries first.
Otherwise, you are going to be wearing out the battery–constantly charging and discharging it–at a time when you do not want to use it at all. You're also heating it up (see "Keep It Cool," above).
You do not want it too empty while you take it out. An unused battery loses power over time, and you do not need all the power to drain away, so remove it when it's at least half-charged. Never remove the battery while the computer is on, or even in standby or sleep mode; doing so will crash your system and possibly damage your hardware. Even inserting a battery into a running laptop can damage the system. So only remove or reinsert the battery when the laptop is completely off or hibernating. If you've never removed your laptop's battery and don't know how, check your documentation. (If you don't have it, you can probably find it online.) The instructions generally involve turning the laptop upside-down and holding down a button while you slide out the battery. Myth: Refrigerate your battery. Some people recommend you store it in the refrigerator, inside a plastic bag. While you should keep a battery cool, the last thing you want is a wet battery, and condensation is a real danger in the fridge. Instead, store it in a dry place at room temperature. A filing cabinet works fine. You don't want the battery to go too long without exercise or let it empty out entirely. If you go without the battery for more than two months, put it in the PC and use it for a few hours, then remove it again. Also, before you take the laptop on the road, reinsert the battery and let it charge for a few hours before unplugging the machine. Allow the battery time to get a full charge before you remove the AC power.

Tips for a Longer Laptop Battery Life
Just as the fuel is the driving force behind automobiles, so is the battery for laptop. Money is not the only prerequisite to owning a laptop. It is extremely important to know the basic steps required to prolong your toshiba pa3399u-1bas laptop battery life. Today, mobile computing has become an integral part of our day to day life.
Although, there are other external factors responsible for life-span of your battery such as the cell components of your battery, its make and model and genuineness of the product. Purchasing cheap laptop battery can put you in a difficult situation given the fact that most of these cheap laptop batteries available in the market are either Chinese made, refurbished or used batteries and/or made of unknown dangerous chemical compounds. Since laptop users are at a higher risk of procuring sub-standard products therefore one must be well versed with the properties and technicality of buy acer extensa 5520 laptop battery.
Listed below are few tips on how to prolong your apple a1175 battery life through correct usage:
Put screen in dim mode
Keeping your laptop screen bright can drain away the battery energy. So, the ideal measure to make a difference to your battery life is to reduce the bright of the screen to dim mode.
External input device
After the use of USB and other external peripherals, the user is recommended properly shut the device before removing from the laptop.
Extra RAM
The system uses the virtual memory which in turn uses the hard disk when the RAM memory runs out. And, this is relatively a less efficient option in terms of power consumption. Although, it is also true that additional RAM means more consumption of energy, this measure is best suited to those users who are often in the need of extensive virtual memory.
Reduce background application
CPU or the Central Processing Unit is the backbone of the laptop. By avoiding unnecessary load on the CPU, one can drastically reduce battery energy drain. Therefore, it is a good practice to shut down background applications when not in use, such as desktop search applications.
Battery cycle
In contrast to the common belief that batteries last longer if plugged or remain charged (when in use) all the time, it can prove harmful lithium based laptop batteries. Electrons in the battery should be allowed free movement occasionally in order to enhance the battery-life. So, the least one can do is discharge your battery once in a month.
Hibernating is a best option over standby mode. It allows the user to retain and resume from where one left without burdening the laptop battery energy. So, this mode is more energy efficient than shutting down your computer and booting all over.
The life of a laptop battery depends largely on the usage of the equipment. In short, mishandling of your laptop will simply break your laptop battery.

On my Vaio, I can select from one of 8 levels. During one test, at brightness level 3 my system reported 60% full, with 3:52 (all times are hours:minutes) of life to go. I switched up to level 5 and in 17 minutes of use, I was down to 52% full, with 3:06 to go. In other words, 17 minutes used 46 minutes worth of battery (all other variables were held constant). You can even be so bold as to lower your brightness all the way down when sitting idle for a minute or two (for example, if you are writing a long blog post and pause to clarify your thoughts before typing).
Dont use any external devices. USB and PC-Cards (aka PC-MCIA) use your battery to function, even when you arent using them! Have an EVDO card or maybe a USB mouse? Remove them if you can. Even a memory card reader in your PC-MCIA slot uses power just by being in there. The effect varies based on the type of device, but even a few minutes here and there (as youll see) add up significantly. Single-task, not multi-task. The more you are doing at the same time with your PC, the more memory and CPU usage increases. Both of which directly use up HP Laptop Battery. Close any applications you arent using, even the small ones. When doing some experimentation, I found it more efficient to run a single application at a time, then close it and open a new one when ready to move on. While your hard drive uses the battery too, if you are doing anything productive you are probably hitting the drive on a regular (even if infrequent) basis anyway. Keep it cool. You can take a page out of the extreme gamers handbooks, and have your system perform more optimally by keeping it cool. Make sure your air vents (inflow and outflow) arent blocked by anything, which often occurs by poorly positioning your laptop on your lap (which is known to have some other side-effects too, by the way). Heavy CPU and memory use all contribute to heat as well, hence my comment on multi-tasking above.
Shut down unused services. MSN Messenger, Google Desktop Search, QuickTime, wireless managers, etc. Theyve all gotta go. You probably arent going to use them, and they all eat up valuable resources. Especially things that scan anything. For advanced users, I also recommend launching Windows Task Manager and getting rid of anything not used in-flight. In fact, I put together another little text file with a list of all the services I dont use, and I go down the list and manually shut down each one. If you really want to get this one right, a little bit of research is in order. While online, I launched the task manager (control-shift-escape) and for each service that has my User Name, I googled it. There are a few good web sites out there which chronicle what all these mysterious services do, and you should be able to figure out which you need, and which you dont. Important warning: if you arent comfortable with this lingo, you should skip this step, or get some techie friend to help you out. Less important warning: you may end up in a situation where you need to do a reboot after you get to your destination.
Hibernate optionsDo Hibernate, Do Not Suspend. Ive found that my Vaio tends to use way too much battery when in suspend mode. Not sure why, but the instant-on effect isnt worth the extra 30-60 seconds it takes to get out of hibernation. Furthermore, the minor hit to the hard drive is unlikely to have a significant impact to your overall battery time. Also, if you werent aware, going in and out of hibernate is much better than a full startup/shutdown sequence. Note that you might need to manually enable Hibernate as a system option (once you have, the quick shortcut into it is windows button followed by U followed by H, and some PCs will have even faster shortcuts available as well). If you make a run to the bathroom, however, thats worth a quick Standby, but anything over 10 minutes and Id Hibernate instead.
Advanced power optionsTweak advanced settings. Virtually all laptops manufactured in the past 24 months have some advanced power options. Mine, for example, allows me to go into 16-bit color mode, force the CPU into a power-saving mode, disable my LAN port, and more. This might seem obvious, but if you arent doing it already, go find these settings (probably in the control panel, or possibly through custom software provided by your manufacturer) and get aggressive with them! If you dont have any extra control, one good extra tip is to manually force your screen into lower color modes, as they use less CPU overall and can make a huge difference in the long run. While you are at it, you might want to change your Alarms settings, as many laptops default to shutting down with as much as 10% of your acer laptop battery still available (my Low Battery is just an alert at 5%, and my Critical is force hibernate at 1%)!
Choose Wisely. Good: Word, Excel, Outlook, Text Editors. Bad: anything by Adobe (you think Microsoft has bloatware, have you noticed how long even Acrobat takes to launch these days???), all Google plugins, many Widgets, Gadgets, etc. All I can say is pick your battles wisely. 50 minutes of a video game ate up over 2 hours of my battery time, whereas writing email or documents tend to use up less than what Windows predicts (about 105% of the estimate on average). Ive also found WinDVD is right on the money for Dell Laptop Battery consumption, and Windows Media Player is a little power-hungry (by the way, if you are using your laptop to play music make certain you disable visualizations). On that note, dont use your laptop to play music unless absolutely necessary, its a real resource killer.
Watch That Hard Drive. I just wrote, dont play music, but the reason is mostly about your drive. The more it spins, the more power it takes. Make sure youve set your basic power option to turn off your drive relatively fast, but not necessarily too fast. Some drives use more power getting started than staying running for short periods of time. I set my Vaio to turn off the disk after 3 minutes of inactivity, you may want more, you may want less. At the end of the day, if you are doing anything that prevents the hard drive from spinning down ever, you are draining your battery more than needed.
Power alarmsLike a Boy Scout, Be Prepared. I make a point of configuring my flight mode prior to getting on the plane. It may only take 5-10 minutes to get your system setup properly, but that just eats into your battery life if you wait to do it on the plane. Once done with all the settings, the last thing I do before unplugging my power supply is hibernating the PC.
I hope some of these tips help you out. Personally, I add around 30 minutes (or more) to the longevity of my standard battery (3:30 on average now), and almost an hour on the extended one (6:30 or so). This gives me almost 10 hours of combined life (4 full DVDs guaranteed), which suits me quite well.
I am on the planes a decent amount of the time (100,000 miles by late May) and tend to spend a chunk of my flights using my laptop. Most of the time its productive, but it can also include a DVD or the occasional game (either Nethack or Battle for Middle-Earth 2, which are obviously similar). When I was a-hunting for a laptop, battery life was a key criterion in my selection process, as was weight. While I like my Vaio VGN SZ-160P, the standard battery was lasting about 3 hours (the extended life clocks in under six hours before my tweaks), not enough for the SFO-JFK route (now switching to SFO-EWR as a default due to Manhattan traffic, which is a huge bummer because Uniteds P.S. flights have standard AC outlets on board).
So I did a lil Googlin for tips on extending battery life, and I found them all pretty, well, lacking. Stuff like dont try to do real-time 3d rendering or fully charge up your battery before flying. One of them even said buy an extra battery. Not exactly helpful (Sonys tips are in the picture on the right). The most common tip that Ive found truly deceptive is on disabling wireless: many claim it makes a huge impact to disable it, but personally Ive only noticed a minor difference. I do in fact disable it (and Bluetooth) but on my Vaio the difference was about 10 minutes over 3 hours (but as I state below, it all adds up).
Alas, Ive gone and done a lot of experimenting and have a list of my tips to really maximize Battery life for my laptop.
Battery remaining timeKey to this process is having some good methodology. While testing, I kept a plain text file on my Desktop (creatively called battery.txt) tracking the real clock as well as Windows expected battery life. The problem with the Windows tool, is it really just tells you the current state of the battery based on the current system activity. This means if you start with 3 hours remaining then spend 30 minutes doing something that rapidly consumes the battery, youll be down to 2 or less. In other words, you need to track the actual history/lifespan of your battery if you want to get the best information out of your system. You can check out my little tracking file for inspiration.

How to Prolong a Laptop Battery Life0

How to Prolong a Laptop Battery Life
Owners of laptops can enjoy the benefits of working or surfing the Internet on the go. This is the main selling point of having a portable laptop; however any owner must also think about the battery. As the owner of a laptop, you will want your battery to last as long as possible. Rechargeable batteries can only be recharged so much, and then it will be time to purchase a new one. The average laptop battery only lasts two to four years. How can you extend the life of your laptop's battery? The answer is by simply following these 6 tips to prolong Toahiba laptop battery life.
Tip number one for prolonging the battery life of your laptop's battery is to defrag your computer. This is something that many laptops owners over look and many do not realize with affect the life span of their rechargeable battery. There is a good reason why this will help. The easier it is for your hard drive to work, the less battery power it is that your laptop will consume. When you perform a defragmentation, this will increase the reading speed of your hard drive. When you hard drive spins and reads, it takes up quite a bit of battery power. Therefore, set a schedule and do a defragmentation one time per month. Your computer will run faster and your battery will last longer.
Tip number two in the 5 tips to prolong laptop battery life is to simply think about what is going on behind the scenes while you are typing or clicking around. It is easy to forget about programs that you have opened previously that are running in the background. If you do not need a program any longer, just take those few seconds to close it down and this can greatly help. Instead of your battery using precious power for a program you are not even using, you can extend its life by just asking it to give you power for what you actually need.
Tip number three in the 5 tips to prolong laptop battery life is to take care of your battery. Many people do not think about the battery as it sits inside of their laptop. However, by taking just a little bit of time to clean and maintain it, you can greatly extend its life. Once a month, for example a TOSHIBA PA3634U-1BAS battery you will want to clean it and this is a very easy and simple task. All you need is a small cloth and a bit of rubbing alcohol. A wipe across your laptop's battery where it makes connection one time per month will give you better transference of power, thus extending the life.
Tip number four in the 5 tips to prolong toshiba laptop battery life is to keep in mind if you really need to use Wi-Fi all of the time. There will be plenty of times that you do use your Wi-fi, but then perhaps do a copy and paste into a document and work from that. In these cases, turn off the wireless connection and you will stop that battery from consuming a whole bunch of power.
Tip number five and the final tip in the 5 tips to prolong laptop battery life is to think about temperature. It really does make a difference. What keeps a laptop cool? It is the air vents and these can quickly become clogged up with dust. When you keep these vents clean, you are prolonging the life of your battery. It only takes a moment or two to use a keyboard cleaner to blow out the dust that accumulates. Do this one time per month, along with the above tips and you will notice a big difference.

A blazer is one of those pieces that has the ability to make almost any outfit look pulled together. They really can become your best friend when you're in a rush – throw one on over a basic top and jeans and ta-da, you'r ready to go! I have to admit that Sunday is my lazy day and it sometimes takes a lot for me to get ready (with a comfy couch, tv and a snuggle buddy, can you really blame me)? So on these lazy days of mine (and on lazy days of yours) having a good tailored blazer on hand is the smartest and easiest way to bring a basic outfit together.

Steeple Hill Books, $13.95, 368 pages, Amazon ASIN 0373786409Part of a series
I enjoyed several of the books in Hannah Alexander's Hideaway series, so I was excited to try the first book in this new one. In A Killing Frost, the husband and wife team writing as Hannah Alexander combine their medical knowledge for a fast-paced suspense thrill ride that had me glued to the pages. Though the initial setup of the story made me wary, the author's way of gradually giving depth and unexpected features to what first appear as stock characters and situations worked very well in this book.
As the novel opens, 11 year-old Doriann Streeter sits wedged between her kidnappers in an old pickup truck. Though terrified, glimpses of the kidnapped girl's intelligence show through - not least when she convinces her attackers to veer off the road to a small town. The kidnappers are junkies about to crash and Doriann tempts them with tales of drugs to be had in the small town of River Dance, Missouri. Unknown to the pair, Doriann has family there and knows the town well.
While Doriann undergoes her ordeal, Dr. Jama Keith has come reluctantly to River Dance. Though fearful of returning to her hometown, Jama has a debt to pay. The town financed her medical education in return for her coming to work in the newly built town clinic. While events from Jama's past keep her from wanting to be home, she has the integrity to do her duty and so she has come to work her required years.
Her first day does not start well. The clinic is not yet open for business, and Jama finds herself having to break in so that she can treat her foster father until help arrives to take him to the hospital in a larger town. The clinic director's response to Jama's plight lacks sympathy, to say the least, and Jama dreads spending years under this woman's authority. Even more, she dreads spending time in the same small town as her foster brother, Tyrell Mercer, who has also recently returned.
At first, the two plots develop well and separately from one another. Doriann deals with the kidnappers as she makes her way in the woods near River Dance. She comes off as basically a smart kid though she makes mistakes that feel quite believable given who she is. In other sections of the book, Jama and Tyrell try - and often fumble with - attempts at basic communication and reestablishing what could end up being either a friendship or relationship. These two very obviously have a past, and the author makes them deal with it. It is not until later that we get to see how the two plotlines relate to one another, so if you don't like spoilers, stay far away from the cover blurb.
The authors also do a good job with making characters feel real and no one is wholly evil or completely a saint. When deep dark secrets are revealed, people react to them. The reactions aren't always what the ideal person would do, but they do fit in with what a normal, flawed human facing such a situation.When I first saw the name of the town at the center of this series, I have to admit that it rather distracted me. It's hard to feel drawn into a mystery set in a homey small town when your head is filled with visions of people prancing to Irish music. That incongruence and the sometimes over-the-top Mayberry-esque descriptions of life in town pulled me out of the story from time to time, but the book still worked for me.
A Killing Frost marks a promising start to a new suspense series. With legal thrillers, I find myself nitpicking the legal aspects of every story, but with medical thrillers, I tend to enjoy the story much more. Though Jama and Tyrell's relationship in this book moves in fits and starts that sometimes feel awkward, both of them work overall as characters and I ended up enjoying this story quite a bit. If you enjoy romantic suspense and would like to read a suspense thriller with a postive message, you may want to give this one a try.

This past week had no shortage of great highlights, but we thought the three exciting moments below stood out from the rest. Vote on what play you think deserves to be the Bridgestone Performance Moment of the Week.
Bergeron's late heroics: Patrice Bergeron did it all for the Boston Bruins on Monday. His third-period equalizer and shootout winner helped Boston avenge its loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs two days earlier with a 3-2 triumph on home ice.
Vintage Khabibulin: Nikolai Khabibulin turned back the clock on Tuesday in St. Louis. The 40-year-old netminder made highlight-reel stops all night long in a 43-save shutout against the Blues.
Ovi on Broadway: Alex Ovechkin had a leading role for the Capitals in their visit to Madison Square Garden on Sunday. He scored a first-period goal on a tip-in before beating Henrik Lundqvist five hole in the shootout as Washington earned a 3-2 victory.

Tbe following editorial squib up
peared in The State of Sept. 10:
"A few weeks ago the governor received
a request from the sheriff of
Pickeus county for one or two companies
of militia to prevent negroes
from rescuing one of their race who
was about to bo hanged. It was reported
that negroes were"orgauizing."
The governor denied the request, cr
tiering the shoritr to use bis powers in
drafting a posse. Of course tliore was
no organization or danger. To tbe
white man of the coast, where the negroes*
are as ten to one, and never
feared, tbe idea of fenring them in the
Piedmont, where the majority is reversed,
is inexplicable. Yet pome panicky
person sets going somo "organization"
yarn every month or two.
There is probably as much foundation
for the existence of "Before Day"
clubs in Georgia and Florida as there
was for tbe uprising in Pickens. All
xne otaio neea uavo no mars aooui
the courage of I'iokens county's sher*
ilY or its citizens. It is truo that
thero were rumors of liberation of the
negro rourdoror, Henry Jones. It is
equally true that such threats had no
more dread among Piftkens county
citizens than "the whito man on the
coast, where the negroes are ivh ten
to one, and never feared." Tho reason
for the sheriff's call upon the
crovernorer for a comoanv of State
rnalitia was simply this; Tho sheriff
was laboring under tlie impression
that the State malitia exists for tho
purpose of quelling just such distur
bances as "mi(.ht have" arisen, but
fortunately did not. He wua aware
of course that he Oould deputize every
man in the county if neods be, but
thought that the State is taxed to
keep up the State militia, which ex
iBtB for preHorving peace within tho
State, nn<l that a company of militia
wan not far away and Hhould ho culled
into requiwition simply as a roattor of
It won ftnlliorntively roportod here
at tho time that a company of State
militia in Greenvlllo remained in
thoir armory a mnjor portion of the
night ready to come to Pickonn at n
iiii/iiiuut n iiutir-u.
If thoy wore not acting under the
instructions of tho governor, the State
will please keep mum and not roport
the matter to the governor and have
the Greenville laddies court martialed.
They meant w?ll and felt that
in holding themsolvex in readiness to
quell a possible disturbance, they
wore discharging their duties as soldiers
to the State.
No, the fact that the sheriff of
Pickens county called on the governor
for a company of State militia in
no indication that the people of this
county are cowards.
? Tho fact that tho Greorivillo company
remained in their armony subject
to onW is a clear indication that
they knew their duty aB soldiers to
tho 8tato.
If The Htate has no fears of cow
ardfl nearer home, it noed not worry
about tho lack of bravery on tho part
of the sturdy inounttAneers.

A Bright Young Life Cut Short*

Wednesday, Aug. SI, Mr. Thomas
Allgood, second son of Mr. and Mrs.
Edward F. Allgood, of Equality,
Anderson county, S. O. Thomas
was born near Pickens C. H. 32 years
ago, moved with his father to Andorson
comity when he was a child, in
early youth ho professed religion uud
joined the Baptist church at Flat
R< ck. lie attended school at Kurman
University in Greenvillo. When
still young he went to Texas, where
he wooed and won for his life companion
Mies Alice, daughter of Mr.
Med Looper, of Texas, but formerly
of PickeuB county, S. C. Three years
ago Thomas sold out in Texas and
movca to nooarc, vyKia. luomns
had done well in Oklahoma during
bis short stay there. He was held
iu high esteem by the best citizens
of the community. At the time of
his death ho had farming interests
out from the city of Hobart, while he
.managed a largo hardware business
iu the city and received a tine salary
tor tho sumo.
Tho cauB'j of his death was a little
bug crawled into bis oar while he
was asleep. The bug was gotten out,
but the drum of the ear was punctured
and rose, which" called for an
operation. After the operatiou it
was thought that he would recover,
but death came and carried bun across
the river.
His broken hearted wife with her
four little fatherless children came
with hid body to.Liberty, B. C., where
his body was met by his masonic
brethren and carr^d to his father's
home. It was a flight never to be
forgotten as the loved ones, father,
mother, wife, children, sisters, brothers
and other relatives and special
friends viewed the body for the last
From there the body was carried
to Mt. Pisgah church, where a short
funeral sorvice was held by the pastor,
Rev. D. W. Hiott, then the masons
took charge, and with the burial
ceremony of that fraternity, Capt.
Qeorgo Rankin officiating, his body
was laid away to wait the morning ol
the resurrection, when God shall bid
it rise.
It must have been a great source

I flew Qantas from Sydney to LA in 2008, but my recent trip with them from London to Bangkok and from Bangkok to Auckland gave me a chance to look at them with fresh eyes. Qantas maintains a good reputation around the world among fliers. They've never crashed (though parts of their planes have exploded in midair), they have above-average food, and their entertainment system has more choices than you'll ever need.
If I had to rank Qantas, I'd put them in the middle. As an American, I have to deal with companies like American Airlines, United, and Delta. These airlines rank at the bottom of my list in terms of, well, everything. At the top of my list are Asian airlines like JAL, Cathay, and Singapore.
Qantas fits in the middle. I have nothing great to say about them but nothing really negative, either. The service on all my flights was excellent. The staff was always friendly, they came quickly when I rang the bell, and they served the food promptly.
The food itself was better than normal but didn't blow my mind away. In fact, I'm rarely ever blown away by food on an airplane. I'm sure it's better in business or first class, but in steerage, it's only a bit above microwaved food quality. Qantas' food is a little better than the rest, though—not amazing but certainly good enough to finish completely and leave you full.
What sets Qantas apart in my book is their in-flight entertainment system. I was impressed with it back in 2008, and I'm still impressed by it. They have an amazing selection of movies. And not old, saw-it-last-year movies. Even recent hits as well as some independent films. I watched 500 Days of Summer, The Hurt Locker, and The Hangover on my flight over from Bangkok. They have lots of old movies, good TV shows, and even full albums of the most popular artists on the charts.
The bottom line here is that Qantas is a good airline to fly. It may not be the best, but it's certainly not the worst. Moreover, if you're a member of the Oneworld alliance, you'll find them one of the better alliance carriers to fly. If you aren't, Qantas always has amazing deals and inexpensive flight tickets when compared to other major carriers. Plus, if you go to their Australian website, you can purchase your ticket in Australian dollars. If you're coming from a country with a better currency, this will save you even more money.

The Lady Porcupines of Nashua are showing improvement, their coach says. From left are Nicole Williams, Faith Keys, Ryleigh Delich, Tasha Chamberlain, Chloe Koessl and Sandy Viste.
The Nashua Lady Porcupines traveled to Bainville on Saturday to play in a triangular against Richey/Lambert and Bainville.
Their first opponent was the Richey/Lambert Fusion. The first game started out slow. The Lady Porcupines couldn't bring their game together. They lost the first and second games, 13-25 and 15-25. For volleyball games, in order to win a match you need to win three out of five games.
The Lady Porcupines had to fight in order to keep playing the Fusion – and they did. Nashua started off the third game slowly, but they rallied together and only lost by four points.

Jennifer Arnold and Bill Klein of The Little Couple share their lives with the world as they allow cameras into their home and it appears that the couple uses that approach when parenting too. The parents of two children, Zoey and Will, have decided that parenting with an open book policy helps the kids adapt to their new lives and is far less complicated than shielding something and then explaining later. According to People Magazine on Tuesday, the kids knew when Jennifer Arnold was ill and before everyone went to the hospital, the parents took time to explain what was going to happen.
While parenting styles differ from household to household, this idea of sharing with the children has gotten mixed opinions from fans who watch the show. The biggest concern is that the youngsters might be getting too much information. However, the children won't be scared if they know what is going to happen in a situation instead of being surprised.
Knowing that Jen and Bill take time with their kids to share with them every part of their lives, is very touching and a way to bring the family together. Building trust at a young age by being open and honest, the family dynamic will always be the strongest place that the kids start from and that definitely will help the kids grow into confident adults.
The Little Couple returns to TLC on Tuesday night at 10 p.m. ET.
