It's hard to get your head around the size and scale of Bon Bon Station Reserve, an old sheep station south of Coober Pedy in South Australia.
At around 70 kilometres long and 30 across it's the size of Sydney, but that's where the similarities end.
Instead of suburbs and skyscrapers, its desert landscape is dotted with shimmering salt lakes, freshwater wetlands, stately myall trees and stunningly beautiful expanses of pearl bluebush.
At its heart is Lake Puckridge, which fills up with water around once a decade and can run to seven metres deep.
The lake's wetlands system attracts large numbers of waders and waterbirds, including black-winged stilts, red-necked avocets and grey teals.
The reserve sits between the Great Victoria Desert and the large saltpan lakes of Eyre, Torrens and Gairdner, which are so big you can see them from space.
No wonder then that when ecologist Dr Steve Morton first investigated the reserve he called this one of the biggest skies in Australia.
All this has been protected thanks to the generosity of our supporters.
Bon Bon Station Reserve is a place to find South Australia's only endemic bird species, the chestnut-breasted whiteface.
Bon Bon supports a higher diversity of species than might be expected for an arid zone property because it straddles two major bioregions – the Stony Plains in the north and the Gawler Ranges in the south.
The reserve also protects these significant species and communities:
Bon Bon protects 14 vegetation communities, three of which are listed as threatened at the state level.
The sheep are now gone from this former sheep station, but there are still areas where erosion will need to be controlled and in some cases repaired.
Almost the entire catchment of Lake Puckridge is nestled within Bon Bon, which enables us to protect and manage the tributaries and wetlands that feed into the lake.
Fire can be very damaging to the mulga and myall woodlands, and so this is another aspect that we are carefully managing by establishing strategic fire breaks and being 'fire-ready'.
Buffel grass is an emerging invasive weed that has the potential to significantly alter the landscape here. To prevent this happening, we're trying hard to contain and minimise its spread.
Feral predators and rabbits are an ever-present threat needing management, particularly following times of high rainfall.
How does a big-bodied, hungry vegetarian with an aversion to hot weather survive in one of the hottest and driest places on earth?
For southern hairy-nosed wombats at Bon Bon Station Reserve the answer is 'just nicely, thank you very much'!
Day-to-day life for this stumpy-legged powerhouse throws up many challenges.
First, the heat. Southern hairy-nosed wombats are susceptible to heat stress, so during the day they rest in cool, humid burrows and only emerge at night once temperatures have dropped.
Next job, food. These wombats occupy low-rainfall areas that support nutrient-poor grasses. To combat this, they have very low metabolic rates, allowing them to extract enough energy and water from their low-nutrient diet.
And then, finding a mate. This is a job for the girls, who leave home to search for mates while the blokes laze around waiting for a growl at the burrow entrance.
Burrows, however, are valuable real-estate, so it's an attractive offer to a prospective mate if you can provide shelter and a home.
The traditional owners of this land are the Antakirinja Matu-Yankunytjatjara people; preliminary cultural heritage surveys have turned up Aboriginal tools and flakes.
The buildings and infrastructure on the reserve hark back to Bon Bon's 130-year history as a sheep station, when it was home to a large community of station owners, overseers, stockmen and Aboriginal families.
To ensure the Indigenous and European cultural heritage of Bon Bon is conserved, we're planning to undertake a more comprehensive Indigenous cultural heritage survey, and are currently working with the South Australian Museum to archive a number of important historical documents found on the property.

Constructing ponds to protect downstream ecosystems is a common practice in opencast coal mine reclamation. As these ponds remain integrated in the landscape, it is important to evaluate the extent of the effect of mine pollution on these ecosystems. However, this point has not been sufficiently addressed in the literature. The main objective of this work was to explore the metal pollution in man-made ponds constructed for runoff control in reclaimed opencast coal mines over time. To do so, we evaluated the concentration of ten heavy metals in the water, sediment, and Typha sp. in 16 runoff ponds ranging from 1 to 19 years old that were constructed in reclaimed opencast coal mines of northeastern Spain. To evaluate degree of mining pollution, we compared these data to those from a pit lake created in a local unreclaimed mine and to local streams as an unpolluted reference, as well as comparing toxicity levels in aquatic organisms. The runoff ponds showed toxic concentrations of Al, Cu, and Ni in the water and As and Ni in the sediment, which were maintained over time. Metal concentrations in runoff ponds were higher than in local streams, and macrophytes showed high metal concentrations. Nevertheless, metal concentrations in water and sediment in runoff ponds were lower than those in the pit lake. This study highlights the importance of mining reclamation to preserve the health of aquatic ecosystems and suggests the existence of chronic metal toxicity in the ponds, potentially jeopardizing pond ecological functions and services.

One of the best place to visit in Asia for tourism is Sri Lanka.Paradise is still the most commonly used word to describe Sri Lanka . The famous explorer Marco Polo of the 12th Century wrote that Sri Lanka is the finest island in the whole world. I will be happy to recommend Jetwing to anyone wishing to tour Sri Lanka. This map of Sri Lanka, covers most of the tourist attractions you would find interesting to visit.

This stupa in anuradapura is unique in its own way.It is located to the east of the Basawakkulama Tank and surrounded by a sand courtyard .The work was started by King Dutugemunu in 161 BC.This stupa is in the water bubble'shape.The Buddha's relics also enshrined in this stupa.The stupa rises to about 150ft. At its base is a wall studded with 338 elephant heads with the bodies concealed inside the wall.Closer to the entrance in the east is a large statue of the mighty King Dutugemunu who built this stupa
Sri Lanka's oldest treasures, the 1500 years old Sigiriya Rock Fortress was the brain child of King Kassapa.He converted this 182 metre rock in to a fortress.The fortress was built in the shape of a huge lion.But only the ruins of its remain today.There are water gardens,terraced gardens,the 3 metres mirror wall and the 5th century paintings of the Sigiriya frescos. There were originally 500 of these bare – breasted women but time and weather have left just eighteen of them. Some say that they were King Kassyapa's wives, that they were goddesses from the mists of mythology, or that they were ladies of the court.
Yala National Park
Yala National Park or Ruhuna National Park is the most visited and second largest national park in Sri Lanka. It is situated in the southeast region of the country, and lies in Southern Province and Uva Province. The park covers 979 square kilometers and is located about 300 kilometers from Colombo. Yala was designated as a wildlife sanctuary in 1900, and, along with Wilpattu it was one of the first two national parks in Sri Lanka, having been designated in 1938. The park is best known for its variety of wild animals. It is important for the conservation of Sri Lankan Elephants and aquatic birds. There are six national parks and three wildlife sanctuaries in the vicinity of Yala. The park is situated in the dry semi-arid climatic region and rain is received mainly during the northeast monsoon. Yala hosts a variety of ecosystems ranging from moist monsoon forests to freshwater and marine wetlands. It is one of the 70 Important Bird Areas (IBAs) in Sri Lanka. Yala harbours 215 bird species including six endemic species of Sri Lanka. The number of mammals that has been recorded from the park is 44, and it has one of the highest leopard densities in the world. The area around Yala has hosted several ancient civilizations. Two important pilgrim sites, Sithulpahuwwa and Magul Vihara, are situated within the park.

Brazil isn't China's first foray into Latin America — Chinese companies have a strong presence across the region, from mining operations in Argentina to manufacturing in Mexico. China has bilateral trade agreements with Peru, Costa Rica and Chile.
Zhang Jianhua, chief of the Bank of China's operations in Sao Paulo, said Chinese companies have been enticed by Brazil's wealth of iron ore, soy, oil and other natural resources, and many companies are finding it more cost-effective to move closer to the commodities. Chinese companies also see Brazil's booming middle class as a lucrative market.
Chinese companies' experience elsewhere in Latin America, however, hasn't helped them avoid problems in Brazil.
A former top executive for Chinese computer maker Lenovo said most Brazilians at the company's local offices were frustrated by demands to come up with almost immediate results in a country with some of the world's worst red tape. Even seemingly mundane tasks, such as getting a phone line or renting an apartment, can require trips to the notary and stacks of paperwork.
Brazilian workers also balked at what they saw as their Chinese superiors' suffocating management style, said the executive, speaking on condition of anonymity for fear of putting in jeopardy the jobs of other Brazilians at Lenovo.
"It was not the quantity of work — we're all chained to our Blackberry, working 24 hours a day, seven days a week," she said. "But the Chinese bosses wanted people physically in the office 100 percent of the time so they could control them.
"That's definitely not how deals are closed in Brazil. It's over dinner, at lunch, having a drink. You cannot keep your work force locked up in an office and expect to make headway in Brazil."
The executive added that Chinese bosses would often create ill will by upbraiding Brazilian project managers in front of their staff.
"They thought the workers would do more if the orders were coming from the big boss, but that's not what Brazilian workers think — it's just the opposite," she said. "They lost motivation because they thought their manager had no respect within the company, to the point that he was being dressed down in front of them. I saw that a lot."
Calls to Lenovo were not returned.
Asian executives have had their own complaints about what they've seen as the lax work ethic of Brazilian employees, but are up against laws that require all foreign companies in Brazil to hire locally.
Charles Tang, who founded the Brazil-China chamber of trade and industry 25 years ago, vividly recalls the difficulties he encountered when the Bank of Boston first sent him to Brazil in the mid-1970s. He was particularly frustrated with what he said was some Brazilians' lack of punctuality.
"I banged my head against the wall for a year or so before I really got into Brazilian culture," he said.
Tang said he soon learned the Brazilian way — essentially to relax, realize nobody is going to arrive at a meeting on time and understand that informality doesn't necessarily equate with a lack of professionalism. He realized that the differences in style ultimately didn't affect the bottom line.
In fact, data from the U.S.-based business group The Conference Board show Brazilian workers were 30 percent more productive last year than their Chinese counterparts. Chinese worker productivity, however, grew at more than twice the annual rate than that of Brazilian workers.
In the past, Chinese firms circumvented such complications by importing thousands of their own workers, a practice Brazilian officials don't tolerate, said Antonio Barros de Castro, a former president of Brazil's state development bank who has closely studied China's rise.
"They know that here they have to work mostly with Brazilian laborers, the government has made that clear," Barros said. "In places like Africa, they resolved work force problems by ignoring the problem, by working with Chinese workers."
Despite efforts to build better working relationships between the two countries, distrust was still rife on a recent afternoon in the Liberdade neighborhood of central Sao Paulo.
Celio Lin, 29, sat by the cash register of his family's busy Chinese restaurant complaining about the Brazilian staff, while his mother checked on the line cooks by tugging on their coats and attentively peeking into pots of soup and noodles.
"Brazilians want vacations for I-don't-know-what, they want a day off for I-don't-know-what, they want to go to the beach, to relax," Lin said. "The beach is obviously pleasant, but if you send a Chinese man to the beach, he'll go there to sell something!"

The Beckhams are staying in Los Angeles - soccer star and model David Beckham has turned down a deal to end his career in France.
The 36 year old is staying with the Los Angeles Galaxy for at least one more year after talks between him and Paris Saint-Germain bosses fell through.
The news comes almost two months after Beckham led the L.A. Galaxy to victory over the Houston Dynamo in America's Mls Cup.
Insiders report Beckham felt his wife Victoria, their three sons and baby daughter Harper, who was born in Los Angeles last summer (11), were settled in the city and he didn't want to uproot them.
According to U.S. sports network Espn, Beckham's new deal is worth $6.5 million (Gbp4 Million).

Silverlight assemblies are not binary compatible with "normal" .NET assemblies. How can it be, considering the fact that the same compiler is used to create both types of assemblies (even though mscorlib.dll is not referenced for Silverlight)?
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
Right, so, good question. There's a lot of misconception in this area and it's important to separate fact from fiction.
Fiction: Silverlight assemblies are compiled by magical microsoft gnomes and that makes them incomptiable with the .Net desktop CLR.
Fact: The CLR has this beautifully articulated system called "Fusion".
Fusion is the part of the CLR responsible for taking that Assembly Manifest dependency and finding the corresponding physical file.
Fusion for Silverlight Assemblies on the Desktop .Net CLR - just works. (assuming all dependencies are present)
Fusion on the Silverlight CLR for desktop assemblies - won't work.
So, summing up:
If you'd like a real world example of Silverlight assemblies running on the desktop CLR, check out my article from a year ago @ SILVERLIGHT DLLS ON THE DESKTOP CLR
The IL code is the same. However the core libraries are different so even the simplest operation in a library compiled for .NET won't work in Silverlight since the library will be referencing external libraries not present in Silverlight.
The aren't compatible, because Silverlight uses a light weight version of mscorlib.dll. However you can reuse your code written for "normal" .NET on Silverlight with some tricks.

TAVARES, Fla. (AP) -- A central Florida man has been sentenced to
life in prison for the death of his girlfriend's toddler son.
A Lake County judge sentenced 30-year-old David Tatara on
Wednesday. A jury found him guilty last month of second-degree
According to the Orlando Sentinel (http://thesent.nl/rUNklO),
Tatara had claimed that 15-month-old Blake Rupe was fatally injured
in December 2008 when he fell from a playpen.
Prosecutors say Tatara lost his temper and assaulted the boy
because he wouldn't stop crying for his mother.
A medical examiner described the child's cause of death as blunt
force trauma, reporting a fractured skull and two broken ribs.

Best nappiesBy fromsydney on 19/06/2014 12:57:32 PM
I was given a few of the Mater nappies to try and now buy them online to have sent interstate. They are less bulky than other brands, the fixtures are fantastic and they are super absorbent.
Bub loved it!By Jenny on 23/05/2014 4:45:06 PM

Have you ever found yourself stuck behind land yachts?
Do telemarketers have your number?
Are you tired of people telling you everything you like is bad for you?
Does technology gang up on you?
Do you miss the days of soda fountains, cheap gasoline and when hamburgers didn't cost $6?
Do you ever wonder whatever really happened to Randolph Scott? (More importantly, do you even remember Randolph Scott?)
So does Sonny Garrett, and from the hills of the Ozarks he ponders these and other of life's questions in his weekly newspaper column. These are some of his observations on life, the universe and the benefits of a good cup of coffee.
"The boy never was right." - Mom and Dad
"Please buy this book. The kids need shoes, and the dog and cat need food." - Kim, author's wife
"I'm still dead." - Francisco Franco, late dictator of Spain
Here's a little sample text.
Who would have thought $1.22 per gallon gasoline would sound good? That's what the price was in Mountain Home 25 years ago in the midst of a gas war.
Ah, the good old days. That's when one fast-food place offered a burger, fries and a drink for $1.84.
You can't even get a gallon of gas for that now let alone a meal that could give you gas.
With the price of gas heading toward the stratosphere it makes you long for the time when gas was cheap. I remember pumping gasoline for 29 cents a gallon when I worked part-time at Joe Minnick's service station in DeKalb, Texas. And that was for pemium.
For that 29 cents, along with gasoline you got your windshield washed, your oil checked and free air for your tires while you sat in the comfort of your vehicle. Now, for the premium price of about $2.35 a gallon and more, you get out of your car, pump your own gas, wash your own windshield, check your own oil and air your own tires.
What's wrong with this picture?

Chris Christie In 2008: "Being In This Country Without Proper Documentation Is Not A Crime"
It's a position that could starkly contrast with Mitt Romney's strict stance on illegal immigration.
New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, sometimes mentioned as a possible running mate for Mitt Romney, stands notably to his party's left on immigration, an issue that could play either way in considering him for a number two spot he's said he's sick of being asked about.
Christie staked out his position at forum in 2008.
"Being in this country without proper documentation is not a crime," Christie said to more than 60 residents and city officials at local chapter of the Latino Leadership Alliance of New Jersey. "The whole phrase of 'illegal immigrant' connotes that the person, by just being here, is committing a crime."
Being undocumented may be a civil violation, but it's not technically a crime, Christie continued.
"Don't let people make you believe that that's a crime that the U.S. Attorney's Office should be doing something about. It is not," he said.
Christie's comments caused outrage with some conservatives, and incurred the wrath of former CNN host Lou Dobbs. Those piling on Christie included controversial Romney campaign immigration advisor Kris Kobach. (Kobach was apparently demoted to a "supporter" after his views on immigrations law became an issue.)
"Mere présence, just standing in the country illegally, that in it's self is not a crime. That is correct, but that is kind of a silly statement. Illegal aliens are not just standing here, being present, and doing nothing else," Kobach told CNN in 2008. "There are a multitude of crimes associated with being an illegal alien in the United States. That's just the way are laws are written."

This question already has an answer here:
- What does it mean to "align" partitions? 4 answers
What is partition alignment and why? Does it have something to do with the 2048-sector gap between two logical partitions?

What is partition alignment and why? Does it have something to do with the 2048-sector gap between two logical partitions?

This question has been asked before and already has an answer. If those answers do not fully address your question, please ask a new question.
Newer hard drives are being manufactured to utilise 4 kilobyte sectors rather than the conventional 512-byte sectors.
This is done to make more efficient use of the physical space on hard drives as for every sector there is a small batch of error correction data on the drive, and by going from 0.5kilobytes to 4kilobytes per sector means that there can be much less space on the drive wasted in this error correction data. To show what I mean here is an image taken from the Wikipedia article on Advanced Format Drives:
The reason for having to align your disk stems from the interaction of software that was written to expect 512-byte sectors working on a drive with 4-kilobyte sectors. If the software expects 512-byte sectors then it may well be trying to write to what it thinks is the "second" sector of a cluster, but is in fact the second 512 bytes of a 4-kilobyte sector.
The problem is that "Advanced Format" drives that simulate a 512-byte sector to the operating system but actually work with 4-kilobyte sectors internally is that a sector can only be written "in one go". In order to write to that second 512 byte area the entire 4KB sector must be read, and then re-written back to the drive, and this is a slower process than simply telling the drive to rewrite the whole 4KB sector.
Even if the operating system is aware of 4KB sectors it must have the drive properly aligned so that the boundaries between sectors agrees between where the drive says they are and where the operating system thinks they are.
Then there are SSDs, which have a similar problem in that they can be written byte-by-byte, but only erased in large blocks of typically 256KB or 512KB. In this way, in order to maximise performance you must align the partition (and thus sector) boundaries along one of those 256 or 512KB blocks.
For this reason a lot of modern partitioning tools simply align the entire drive along a 1MB boundary, which neatly does away with the need to detect whether you have any of the many types of drive, be they 512-byte sectors, 4KB sectors, or SSD with some arbitrary block size.
To tell if your drive is properly aligned there are a number of ways to check, as this article on Lifehacker mentions. The advice applies mainly to SSds but is equally relevant to making sure a normal hard drive is aligned properly:

GSD Course Bulletin - Spring 2013
This term's information was last refreshed on 12 MAY 2015 14:54:38.
Courses taught by Michael Hooper
05215 [M3]: Analytic Methods of Urban Planning: Quantitative (SES 0521500)
Urban Planning and Design
Lecture - 2 credits
This course is a module. It lasts the first half of the semester only.
Monday Wednesday 10:00 - 11:30 Gund 111
Michael Hooper
Course Description
This course introduces students to quantitative analysis and research methods. The course begins with a discussion of how quantitative methods fit within the broader research landscape. It then exposes students to basic descriptive statistics (including measures of central tendency and dispersion), the principles of statistical inference and important statistical tests and their practical application. By the end of the course, students will be comfortable with a variety of analytical tools relevant to urban planning and policy, including: hypothesis testing, t-tests, ANOVA, chi squared tests, correlation and multivariate regression.
The aim of the course is to introduce students to key concepts and tools in quantitative research methods and analysis. Most importantly, the goal is to develop students' intuition regarding data analysis and the application of statistical techniques. By the end of the course students should be familiar with how basic techniques of quantitative analysis can be applied to a wide variety of data. Students should also have a sense of the strengths and weaknesses of quantitative data analysis and under what circumstances the tools learned in the class are best applied in practice. The course is a lecture course, but students will be expected to participate through classroom discussions, posing questions relevant to the course material and conversing with guest speakers. The course will be evaluated through in-class participation, three problem sets and a final project.
05319: Urbanization and International Development (SES 0531900)
Urban Planning and Design
Lecture - 4 credits
Tuesday Thursday 10:00 - 11:30 20 Sumner 1C
Michael Hooper
Course Description
This course undertakes a detailed examination of global urbanization in the context of international development. The course is divided into four components. It begins by briefly introducing the historical context for urban growth in the developing world, examining in particular colonial policies towards urban settlements and urbanization. The course then turns towards the challenge of defining international development, a task undertaken in part through a critical examination of key debates in development theory. As an example of these debates, the course will address the tension between poverty and inequality as measures of development. The majority of the course concentrates on the latter two sections. In these, it presents and evaluates the key policy frameworks and theoretical paradigms through which the challenges facing contemporary urban settlements in the developing world are addressed and understood. It then focuses on an in-depth analysis of the principal substantive challenges facing developing world cities, ranging from rural-urban migration and the rapid growth of informal settlements to conflict and entrenched poverty. The course makes a concerted point throughout of examining areas of overlap between developing and developed world experience, looking in particular at parallels between developing world challenges and the issues facing marginalized communities in North America and Europe. The course will be evaluated through in-class participation, weekly responses to assigned readings, a mid-term policy paper, three debates, a final project and a final presentation.

BEIJING -- Dara Torres, the 41-year-old mom swimming in her American-record fifth Olympics, will have the top starting position for the finals of the 50-meter freestyle after posting the fastest time in Saturday's semifinal heats.
Torres' time of 24.27 was the sixth-fastest this year, and 0.15 better than anyone else in the semis. World record-holder Lisbeth Trickett of Australia also advanced to the finals, as did American Kara Lynn Joyce.
"I looked and I saw that I was first," said Torres, who won bronze in the 50 in Sydney eight years ago. "That's a little more pressure, and I'm old enough to be able to handle it."
Torres already has a silver medal in Beijing, having anchored the U.S. women in the 400 free relay. But an individual medal would be nice, too, considering she'd retired after giving birth to her first child in 2006, thinking she was done competing.
At the start of this semifinal, Torres was playing mom -- concerned about helping Sweden's Therese Alshammar fix her torn swimsuit.
"I tried to help her with it, tried to do it up, and it ripped again," said Torres. "I was saying, `Her suit's ripped' and waving my arms around."
Zimbabwe's Kirsty Coventry defended her Olympic
title in the 200-meter backstroke, winning in a world-record time.
She led all the way Saturday morning, touching in 2 minutes,
5.24 seconds, lowering the mark of 2:06.09 set by Margaret Hoelzer
at the U.S. trials last month.
Hoelzer took the silver in 2:06.23. Reiko Nakamura of Japan
earned the bronze in 2:07.13.
American Elizabeth Beisel was fifth.
After Coventry won, Britain's Rebecca Adlington won an Olympic gold
medal in the 800-meter freestyle, breaking Janet Evans' 19-year-old
world record.
Adlington touched in 8 minutes, 14.10 seconds Saturday, breaking
the oldest record in swimming of 8:16.22, set by the American in
Tokyo on Aug. 20, 1989.
Alessia Filippi of Italy took the silver in 8:20.23. Lotte Friis
of Denmark earned the bronze in 8:23.03.
Adlington completed a sweep of the women's distance events in
Beijing, having upset American Katie Hoff to win the 400 freestyle.

The Parallel Historical Path of Company and Labour Law

The paper explores the conceptual foundations of the legal principles that govern the operation of company and labour law. The paper argues that far from seeing the doctrinal architecture of company and labour law as a product of apolitical and objective rules a paradigm shift is required. The rule book conception of law is a misguided methodological framework. In sharp contrast to that methodology this paper avers the legal principles governing company and labour law must be viewed through the prism of the sovereignty of property rights. In effect, the viewpoint that law is an autonomous domain is eschewed in this paper. Instead the historical, social and economic forces directing legal developments in two crucial fields are illuminated. The upshot is a study illustrating the dialectical bond that exists between company and labour law. The paper is divided into three parts. The first part examines the way prescriptive law is the keystone of labour law. The role of the control test and implied terms are scrutinized in order to illuminate the way that the common law of employment facilitates the hegemony of managerial prerogatives. Apolitical legalism plays no role in this sphere of law. The second part considers the juridical forms that entrench the power of shareholders and managers in the modern company. In this sphere of law the courts sanction facilitative law by prioritizing the voluntarist assumptions of business people. The curve of legal reasoning in company law is dominated by the courts treating the leading personnel in companies as the personification of economic relations. The owners and administrators of capital are regarded as occupying the commanding heights of the economy, and are given judicial support to choose their own constitutional arrangements. Shareholders and directors are vested with a large degree of autonomy and discretion that is translated into the capacity to opt in and out of the regulatory web. The final part sums up the factors that underpin the triumph of the prescriptive and facilitative law that dominates labour and company law.

The one and only reason I used the full-screen editor in WordPress <3.2 is because it was a FULL SCREEN EDITOR, i.e., I used it when I wanted as much space for writing as possible.
The fancy, shmancy "distraction free editor" in 3.2 is a big pile of useless for me.
Looking at the feedback here, lots of other people don't like it either. And the response from the WordPress folks to this negative feedback seems to be, basically, "Oh, well, too bad, we thought it was cool so there you go, somebody'll eventually write a plugin to bring back the behavior you want."
Here's a piece of feedback for you: DON'T REPLACE FUNCTIONALITY THAT PEOPLE USE THAT SOLVES A PARTICULAR PROBLEM WITH FUNCTIONALITY THAT SOLVES AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT PROBLEM.
If y'all thought the distraction free editor was so dang cool, you could have released it as an OPTION, without getting rid of the full screen editor. Or you could have released it as a nifty plugin, leaving the original full screen editor intact.
I think the decision to replace the full screen editor with the distraction free editor was an extremely poor one which did a disservice to your users.

Labor Minister-designate Neto Lighe said the Government of Liberia risks losing lots of international support if the Ellen Johnson Sirleaf led-Unity Party administration does not make
progress in addressing child labor and human trafficking in the country.
He said in tackling such unlawful act, the Labor Ministry has formulated a strategy paper for a Child Labor Commission to ensure that Liberia is in full compliance with international protocols.
The country's Labor Minister-designate made the assertion recently when he appeared before the Liberian Senate for confirmation hearing.
Explaining to the Liberian Senate why he should be confirmed as the new Labor Minister, the Acting Labor Minister said a five-year action plan will shortly be developed geared towards improving the country's Labor sector.
He informed the Liberian Senate that stringent measures have already been instituted regarding the issuance of Work Permit to aliens, adding that the stringent measures are intended for jobs Liberians should be occupying are given to Liberians instead of foreigners.
Speaking further, the Labor Minister-designate disclosed that the low number of labor inspectors at the Labor Ministry is one of the major challenges facing the Ministry.

This was the first BBQ of the "season" and it worked well. I used fresh tarragon (one of my favourite herbs) and lots of it. Didn't change anything and it was great. Simple dish that could be company fare. Thanks for the post.
Excellent! Like others we added a bit more Dijon. Everyone ate it up!
Loved the mix of mayo and Dijon mustard - used a bit more Dijon mustard as we love it! Grilled it on the BBQ. Thanks toni!

May 20, 2007 by Rob Newell
ROGERS, Ark. - Five years ago, if you had told Andy Morgan of Dayton, Tenn., that his first FLW Tour win would come on Beaver Lake with a spinning rod in his hand, he would have laughed in your face.
Truth is, five years ago, Andy Morgan did not even own a spinning rod - or "fairy wand" as he called it - and he abhorred Beaver Lake's crystal-clear waters and dinky spotted-bass game.
After collecting $200,000 for his first FLW Tour win at the Wal-Mart Open on Sunday afternoon, Morgan has a little different attitude about Beaver Lake, shaky heads, dinky spotted bass and fairy wands.
The Duracell pro started 2 pounds, 7 ounces behind red-hot pro Jay Yelas this morning, and when Yelas' "magic dock" dried up, Morgan grinded past him with a five-bass limit weighing 8 pounds, giving him the win by a margin of 1 pound, 10 ounces.
This marked Morgan's 11th top-10 on the FLW Tour.
"I'm glad to finally get the monkey off my back!" Morgan announced after receiving his first FLW Tour trophy.
"This win is really the result of making a concerted effort to become more versatile over the last two years," Morgan explained. "I grew up with a flipping stick and 25-pound-test, running up rivers and fishing for largemouth. But that kind of fishing will only get you so far.
"Two years ago I bought a bunch of spinning tackle and really worked on the finesse end of this sport, because you can't survive out on the pro tours without doing it."
And as for Beaver Lake: "I used to hate it. It's been my nemesis for years on this tour. It took me seven years to learn to never go under that Highway 12 Bridge (up the river). Trying to catch largemouths up there on power tackle is like chasing a mirage.
"So to come to Beaver and win my first FLW Tour event on a shaky head with a spinning rod is like some form of poetic justice," he laughed.
And that's exactly how Morgan caught his bass this week. Though he did catch a few schooling bass over the four days, today he settled down and relied on what he has spent two years perfecting: the shaky head.
"I caught two on a Tiny `E' swimbait and the rest on a 1/8-ounce War Eagle shaky head with a Zoom watermelon-candy finesse worm," Morgan said. "I used my favorite set-up: 10-pound-test Spiderwire stealth braid tied to a leader of 8-pound-test Vanish fluorocarbon on a G. Loomis 822 spinning rod."
Morgan fished around Prairie Creek most of the week to catch a two-day winning total of 17 pounds, 6 ounces.
Yelas' hot spot dries up
After taking the lead on day two of the Wal-Mart Open, Jay Yelas of Tyler, Texas, uttered some very prophetic words.
"There was enough bass for Andy Montgomery and I to make the top 10 on that schooling hole, but I'm afraid neither one of us can win it by splitting those fish up."
Yelas was right. This morning, when he returned to his magical dock that had produced his quick limits, it was deader than a hammer.
"Over the course of the tournament, between Andy and I and our co-anglers, we caught 40 keeper bass off that dock," Yelas said. "I knew it would eventually give out, but I thought I would at least catch one or two there this morning - never did."
By day's end, Yelas ended up with just three keepers, leaving him in second place with 15 pounds, 12 ounces.
"If you would have told me last night that I could not catch at least one keeper off that dock, I would not have believed it," Yelas lamented.
On the bright side, Yelas collected $75,000 and now leads the Land O'Lakes Angler of the Year points race with 716 points, just seven points over none other than Andy Morgan, who is in second.
Beehler third
Catching the biggest limit of day four was local angler J.R. Beehler of Bella Vista, Ark., who weighed in five bass for 9 pounds, 4 ounces to give him a two-day total of 14 pounds, 14 ounces for third place, worth $50,000.
Beehler utilized his deep local knowledge of Beaver Lake this week to catch his fish.
"I was fishing big trees on the edge of the main river channel," he explained. "The trees top out in about 35 feet of water, and the fish sit right over top of them."
To access the fish, Beehler relied on a Mizmo tube and a Kinami single-tail grub, both rigged on a 1/4-ounce jighead and tied to 6-pound-test line.
"When the fish are really feeding, they'll suspend over top of the trees, and I can count a grub down and they'll eat it on the fall," he said. "When they're not feeding, they get in the middle of the trees, and I have to send a drop-shot down there to catch them. But so many times they'll hang you up in the tree when you get a good one on, which happened to me several times this week."
Powroznik fourth
Bounty pro Jacob Powroznik of Prince George, Va., finished fourth with a two-day total of 14 pounds, 1 ounce for $40,000.
Powroznik used a Tru-Tungsten shaky head to make the top 10, but once he got into the finals, he shifted his focus to schooling fish around Rocky Branch Marina.
"For the schooling fish, I was using a Lake Fork Magic Shad swimbait, a Fluke and a Basstrix swimbait," Powroznik said. "A lot of fish were just slashing at the swimbaits, so I rigged up a stinger treble hook to hang off the back that caught a lot of the slashers.
"Also, when the fish would come up and just follow the swimbaits, I'd suddenly start burning the bait, and that provoked them to slash at it."
Montgomery fifth

I missed the commercial, unfortunately.
For regular computer use, a 15-pin or HDMI cable is required. There are some third-party devices that may display your computer wirelessly, but those would have to be purchased separately.
Your secondary scenario would be spot on. For either the PC or DVI-to-HDMI transfer, the audio would require a 3.5mm audio input. Also, you'd want to Edit the name of the DVI/HDMI port from "----" to "PC". This will enable the audio port.
Does that help?
I have a samsung un55b8000 and want to know how or the best way to use my TV with a computer. Now I have a my TV hard wired into my network and do stream movies from my 2008 server to my TV and have been doing that for a while. I also have a windows 7 desktop and a windows 7 laptop currently. I see those commercials with the guy playing the video game shooting zombies and in that commercial they make it seem so easy to stream what you see on your computer to your tv but Iv'e yet to figure out how to do that! Is there a way eitehr using my desktop and my netork or my laptop and my network without the use of cables to stream what I see on my compute screen right to my TV???
If not then that commercial is sure misleading. At any rate if that is not possible how do I go about hooking up my tv to my laptop as a momitor with sound. The laptop does not have hdmi so I'm guessing I'd have to use like a dvi to hdmi splitter for video and a seperate sound cable that goes sterio to rca? But what i'd really like to do is just stream from my comptuer right to my tv like it seems like there doing in that darn commercial!
Thanks in advance for any input or clearification you can give me!
