Earthquake Risk Reduction
To assist those who live in California with their earthquake fastening needs, we advise that they Contact Secure-It a General Contracting Firm (fully licensed & bonded) that provides seismic consultation and services. To contact Secure-it call 1-805-522-3333 or you can visit their web site at www.secureitconsultants.com. Ask the experts! Have it done right the first time!
In California we are counseled by the experts not to run outside our buildings during an earthquake. This is because we are not as likely to see total structural failure as in other countries. Our wood frame homes generally do very well in earthquakes. Strict building codes reduce the risk of structural failure in our modern (post 1933) masonry buildings. Our greatest risk of injury during an earthquake is from nonstructural hazards. Falling decorative pieces, fixtures, and heavy furniture account for a large percentage of the injuries. Nonstructural hazard mitigation is one of the least expensive ways to decrease the incidence of injury. Please follow our earthquake risk reduction guide for your home which contains identified hazards and some suggested solutions.
Your workplace has the legal obligation to ensure that the work environment is free of hazards to employees. This includes items that may become dangerous during the seismic activities of earthquakes. Office buildings are known to shake and shift drastically during an earthquake causing everyday work equipment into deadly hazards. Please follow our earthquake risk reduction guide for your office which contains helpful tips on ways to secure your office for an earthquake.

1 small (8-inch) partially baked pizza crust (see Cook's note)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons bottled minced garlic
2 tablespoons shredded Parmesan cheese
2 slices (1 ounce) very thin deli prosciutto (see Cook's note)
1 medium tomato (about 4 ounces)
1 cup (1 ounce) loosely packed, prewashed baby arugula leaves or fresh baby spinach leaves
Cook's note: Whether each pizza serves one person or two depends on your appetite and the crust size. (This recipe is easy to double.) Small-size (or mini) partially baked pizza crusts vary slightly in size from brand to brand. Some packages contain two 8-inch crusts, while other brands have three 7-inch crusts. (The slight difference in size will not matter for the proportions in the recipe.) The exact time it takes for the crust to brown may vary by brand as well. For testing purposes only, we used Boboli brand 8-inch crusts.
You can also use packaged prosciutto, but some packages contain 3 ounces while others contain 4. Leftover prosciutto can be refrigerated, tightly wrapped, for up to 5 days or frozen for up to 1 month. Thinly sliced deli ham can be substituted for the prosciutto.
Preheat the oven to 450 F (or the temperature stated on the package directions).
Place the pizza crust on a baking sheet, and drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle on the garlic. Use the back of a spoon to spread evenly. Scatter the cheese on top.
Coarsely chop the prosciutto (or pull it apart with your fingers), and scatter it over the cheese. Core and thinly slice the tomato (but don't peel it), and place the slices evenly over the prosciutto.
Bake the pizza, uncovered, until the edges of the crust are brown and the ingredients are heated through, about 8 to 10 minutes. When the pizza is done, remove it from the oven. Pile the arugula on the pizza, and press it down slightly with your hands. Return the pizza to the oven just until the arugula wilts slightly, about 1 minute. Slice and serve.

Why virgins?
There'll be nohing to enjoy after all the sweaty efforts and bruises.
No thanks, spare me all the pains.
Some say the true translation should be "72 white raisins" instead of "72 virgins." Either way, eating raisins or laying with virgins will probably get pretty boring after even a small fraction of eternity has passed. After a few thousand years of it you may decide you'd rather play tiddlywinks instead.

MENDON TOWNSHIP -- For most of the 18 years Don and Beatrice Durham have lived in their Mendon Township home, they've enjoyed quiet evenings in their backyard, hung laundry outdoors and fallen asleep with their bedroom windows open.
That changed 19 months ago.
"You can describe foul odor ... use all the words and adjectives you like," said Don Durham, 73, who is retired from The Upjohn Co.
"But you don't know what a truly horrible smell is until you have cow manure spread 200 feet from your house and then it just sits there, and sits there and sits there."
Now their house is for sale.
ANSWER: Manure applied to snow and frozen ground is not incorporated into the soil, and its nutrients are lost to runoff that can pollute lakes and streams. For that reason, many farmers cannot apply manure during the winter. Q. What was wrong with the way it used to be when animals grazed on pastures and drank from springs?
A. Uncontrolled grazing of cattle can be a serious cause of water pollution. Their hooves can trample grass into the dirt, creating soil erosion and break down banks of streams as they drink water. They also drop feces and urine into streams and ponds. Q. Can animals be raised in the open without creating pollution problems?
A. Controlled grazing is making a comeback, said Maury Kaercher, Michigan State University Extension director in St. Joseph County. High-quality-forage crops and electric fencing allow animals to be channeled from one small pasture to another before their hooves can damage the turf. Fencing also can be used to allow animals to drink from streams but not walk into the water. Q. Isn't it inhumane and unhealthy to raise animals in close quarters and not allow access to open spaces?
A. Farmers raise livestock as commodities for human food in conditions that optimize their growth and milk production. Poultry and swine often are confined to prevent exposure to predators and disease. Dairy cows in open-sided barns are kept close to feed and bedding to reduce stress and promote milk production. Stress and illness cost farmers money. SOURCE: Michigan State University Extension
• Read the report by the Pew Commission on Industrial Farm Animal Production and information from the Animal Agriculture Alliance to get more details on the issues surrounding animals in CAFOs and their treatment.
Since a 200-acre dairy farm brought 3,500 cows to their rural Silver Street neighborhood, the gardening and yard work the couple once enjoyed are regularly marred by foul odors.
The windows are shut on some nights; the laundry dried indoors on some days.
At times, Don Durham said, the stench is so strong it has made his eyes water and sting with pain.
Al Riedstra, who started the Park Township farm after moving from the Delton area, declined to be interviewed about neighbors' complaints.
But Steve Mahoney, resource analyst with the Michigan Department of Agriculture, visited Riedstra's farm last week in a follow-up visit after complaints prompted adjustments to the farm's manure-management practices this spring.
Mahoney said that since the farm has been in operation, only one of his findings, in March, appeared serious enough for consultation with the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality. That agency determined no violation had taken place.
"He's going to be applying manure again, so there will probably be individuals experiencing some odors," Mahoney said. "But it's not the presence or absence of odors -- it's are the (generally acceptable management) practices being maintained?"
If they are, Mahoney said, "He's good to go. That's livestock agriculture and farming in general."
A growing trend
The Durhams' complaints and concerns are echoed by other residents in northeastern St. Joseph County, where a 2,000-head dairy farm is proposed on 270 acres north of Longnecker Road in Leonidas Township.
A public hearing at 7 p.m. Wednesday on the farm's discharge permit will be conducted by the DEQ at the Leonidas Grange Hall, 30970 King Road. The permit would allow the discharge of storm water from the north end of an 80-acre parcel on the north side of the site, where the cows would be located.
Massive farm operations, such as Riedstra's and the farm proposed in Leonidas, are defined by law as concentrated-animal-feeding operations, or CAFOs. There are 52 CAFOs in southwestern Michigan, including 23 in Allegan County. St. Joseph County currently has six such farms.
The CAFOs are a growing trend in livestock agriculture because the efficiencies built into their design allow farms to be more profitable, said Maury Kaercher, director of St. Joseph County's Michigan State University Extension Office.
Kaercher said new design and management practices can help alleviate the rub between the CAFOs and their neighbors.
"Odor-estimator models" can be used to locate farms and manure storage areas in locations least likely to annoy the neighbors. Farmers can have manure hauled off site or can limit applications to a few times a year. Many farmers even try to avoid spreading manure on weekends and holidays, Kaercher said.
The sunny, warm days of spring and fall are ideal for applying manure to fields, a practice that can create odors at the very time that nonfarming neighbors are most likely to be entertaining or doing things outside.
Still, "when field conditions are right and they need to get corn (planted, too), they might apply 100 acres a day four days in a row and that is a change," Kaercher said. " It leaves a large footprint in a short time."
Ron Carpenter was Park Township supervisor when Riedstra's proposal came before the township board in May 2006. Carpenter said he was familiar with CAFOs because the township in the 1990s turned down a pig CAFO proposal.
The township ended up in court trying to block the pig farm. The suit was dismissed, Carpenter said, because the farm complied with requirements of Michigan's Right-To-Farm Act. The farm operates today on Moorepark Road, between Buckhorn and Hutchinson roads.
"I made clear at the start of the (May 2006) meeting the township board's feelings about the dairy farm, but our hands were tied," Carpenter said. "I still feel as strongly today as I did then that the Legislature has taken away the power of local zoning when it comes to farming issues and turned it over to the (Michigan) Department of Agriculture."
Carpenter likened the situation to "the fox watching over the hen house."
But township and county governments are part of the process that sets management standards livestock farmers must follow, said Paul Wylie, an agriculture agent for the Michigan State University Extension Office in Allegan County.
"The townships still have the ability to zone, that is not pre-empted by the state," Wylie said. "But if an area is zoned for agriculture ... some amount of noise, dust, odors and activity are associated with farming that are virtually inescapable."
Just because some people don't like CAFOs is no reason to ban them from operating, Wylie said.
"They're producing our food and are a tremendous economic force in the state of Michigan," he said.

rolex replica sale | replica watches sale
Firstly can I start off by saying that this is a very unprofessional service, I placed this replica watches order on Monday and I receive an email on Friday stating you do not have the replica watches I require, where as on your website it states you have 1000 in stock. I placed this replica watches sale order on Monday thinking I would get the replica watches latest today, as I require this replica watch for Tuesday. It is going out of the country. So could you please send out the attacthed replica watch for next day delivery. So that it can be guaranteed for Tuesday morning by 10am as I am flying out of the country and require it urgently.
I am ver unhappy with the service provided so far. The replica watches sale was ordered on Monday last week and you got back to me on Friday and today you still havent got back to me. I need this replica watch sale urgently by tomorrow could you please get back to me asap. I have still not received my tracking information for my replica watches. I need some feedback about this because I ordered this replica watch some time ago and I would hate to have to take matters farther to get some feedback as to why I have not received my replica watch sale. It is very important that you respond with an update as soon as possible.
Firstly let me say thank you for your reply, my replica watch has now arrived, and it is a big, but the replica watch is not working. I am so disappointed. Could you advise me on if I could maybe get a new battery fitted. Could this be the problem or would I have to return this replica watch sale to you and go through the process of again waiting for the replacement replica watch sent from china/japan or some other far off place? If you check my order you will notice I asked for the replica watches sale to be sent in plain packaging as it was a present, the reason I picked your company because it clearly stated that it would be delivered within seven days, that never happened but I don't want to harp on about that. All I want is a quick fix if at all possible so I can deliver the present to my good friend, I have been so patient but all I ask is that you do what you say in and on your advertising. I kept my promise by paying, can you keep your part of the transaction by supplying fully working replica watches. After all that's what I ordered and that is what I paid for.
After several attempts I have finally got the replica watches sale working but the crown refuses to go back into place. Now it is sticking out. Is this normal? Thanks for all your help and for your replies. I am sure once you have solved this small problem with the crown. I will be able to stop pestering you and maybe order a replica watch for myself.

News, Budget, Malibu, Election, Santa Monica, Santa Monica-malibu School District (smmusd)
More Taxes Considered for Santa Monica, Malibu Schools
Posted May. 25, 2011, 1:58 am
Hannah Heineman / Mirror Contributor
Continuing concerns about the future of the Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District's budget deficit prompted the school board to reconvene the district's citizens committee to examine the feasibility of an emergency parcel tax for the November 2011 ballot. The committee will also study the feasibility of a future bond measure to help complete all or a portion of the district's capital improvement program.
The 35-member committee will make a recommendation to the board on the emergency parcel tax by August 10, and their recommendation on the feasibility of a bond measure will be made in the spring of 2012. They also will be able to spend up to $50,000 to poll the voters of Santa Monica and Malibu.
News of more voter-funded revenue for the district comes on the heels of the passage of Measures Y and YY, which were approved by Santa Monica voters in the November 2010 election. Measure Y increased the sales tax by a half-cent in Santa Monica, and is expected to fill the City's general fund revenue by $12 million annually. Measure YY expressed voters' wishes that half of the money received from Measure Y be used to subsidize the school district.
At their May 19 meeting, board members emphasized that the reconvening of the committee was being done as a precautionary measure. "Given the range of possible reductions [due to the state budget crisis] it seems prudent to have people on this committee to think about this issue," said board president Jose Escarce
"If we end up in a terrible situation the voters should have the opportunity to vote on a parcel tax," said board member Oscar De la Torre.
Board member Nimish Patel emphasized that looking at these issues was important because "an institution like ours must think long term. We must have a contingency plan in case the worst happens."
The board approved the committee membership in August of 2009. The board discussed the fact that two members of the board, Laurie Lieberman and Nimish Patel, are now members of the school board so they can no longer be on the committee. Several board members discussed trying to recruit additional committee members from Malibu or from applicants to the district's financial oversight committee.
At the same meeting, the board also approved a reorganization plan for the district's child development services for 2011-2012. The reorganization is being done because of a decrease in state funding for the program and will mean a reduction staff of 10.87 FTEs by July 3. These services include district pre-school programs and after school daycare. The state funding reductions include a 15 percent reduction of contract amounts, the reduction of eligibility from 75 percent of state median income to 70 percent, the ineligibility for 11 and 12 year olds to receive subsidy for childcare, and an increase of 10 percent in family fees based on a sliding scale.
Before the board voted on the reorganization plan, the district's Chief Financial Officer Janice Maez commented, "This funding is more certain than others because it is actually based on actions the legislature has already taken."
"This is potentially disseminating the future of our children. It's so difficult to do this," said board member Ralph Mechur.
Judo Abdo, who is the director of child development services, told the board, "Many tears have been shed in child development services over the last couple of months. It has been a very difficult time for us."

Is this part of the "make me want to move to Venice" plan? Measrure Y was ridiculous. Raising bus rates on the poor was sad. The new superintendent's pay is an insult. Now more taxes? The rise of taxes on businesses for patio space isn't enough either? I'm about to go all Egypt up in here. The rich stay rich while we balance the budget on the backs of the poor and needy.

" The rich stay rich while we balance the budget on the backs of the poor and needy. " Yep. I have a cousin that works at SMMUSD, and tells me how everyone gets underpaid even when they have done compensation study! The officials at SMMUSD now that people are getting underpaid and do nothing about it. From an outside standpoint I dont even see how thats possible. So Lame. So... Tax payers, dont worry your money isnt going to people salaries... Well.. just not to teachers, custodians, etc.

Laugh, laugh, laugh! It is time to recall the entire SM Council and school board. We must stop the constant crying for more taxes in our city. It is not just the council but the people in our city DO NOT get it! Our taxes are being raised and the budget mismanagement of the city and our schools continues. Please tell me if I am missing anything here. Let us get some dialogue and action please!!!

so the sales tax was not enough...the past bond measures..the past parcel tax hikes..still not enough...well lets raise them all again..as long as its "for the children" there seems to be no end to tax increases....just don't ask where the money goes or who is responsible

They need more money again? What happened to measure BB money? I thought there were going to fully remodel some schools?! One of the reasons why my sister started to look at Edison Elementary was because it was going to be one of the schools to be totally rebuilt with Measure BB money... What happened?! So where is the money going?

I just spent the better part of a day trying to figure out why Composer (part of the Casper Suite) was failing to output a .pkg file. Composer is usually rock solid; it's the best part of Casper Suite and the industry leader in OS X packaging. Stephan Sudre's Packages is good too, but Composer has an ease-of-use and feature set that is unrivaled.
So when it failed to create my .pkg I was at a bit of a loss as to how to troubleshoot. I tried it on a 2nd and then a 3rd Mac. Three different OS's, three different versions of Composer. All failed.
Then I tried Packages. It too failed. This pointed the finger at my contents. One of the files was an 8.7Gb .dmg that had been output by AutoDMG. I tried renaming the file. No go. Then, at the suggestion of JAMF support, I tried having Composer output a (Casper-specific*) .dmg instead of a .pkg.
That was it. Now everything pointed to .pkg not being able to handle the large file I was stuffing into it.
Persistent Googling yielded this obscure reference in the Munki documentation that .pkg files can't be larger than 8Gb. Ok, that's not exactly correct. The default max. size for a .pkg is 8Gb if no changes are made to the "distribution.dist" file. Thing is, most packaging tools don't let you alter this value.
Why was this so hard to figure out? Because when you hit the limit, no error is generated. Neither Composer nor Packages knew they were failing. They simply output a .pkg that didn't contain everything I'd instructed them to include. There were no logs to view, no clues to follow.
So keep your .pkg files below 8Gb, or, if the file is for use in Casper Suite (see below), use .dmg format. If you're distributing operating systems, modularize to keep sizes smaller. Everyone will be happier.
* Composer-created .dmg files are of a JAMF-specific file format. They work in Casper Suite but not in any other utility that handles .dmg files. Have Composer output .pkg format if you need to interact with anything outside of Casper.
We had a request to deploy two dozen VM's to datacenters running on headless Mac Pros. If the Pros ever got shut down or rebooted, the VM's needed to come back up automatically without requiring anyone to log in to the Mac Pros. Here's how we did that:
You would think you could create a .plist that runs VMWare using the vmrun command:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>Label</key> <string>com.yourcompanyhere.vmware</string> <key>ProgramArguments</key> <array> <string>/usr/bin/logger "=================================="</string> <string>/usr/bin/logger "Trying to start vmware VM's now..."</string> <string>/Applications/VMware\ Fusion.app/Contents/Library/vmrun -T fusion start "/Users/Shared/v1.vmwarevm/v1.vmx" gui</string> <string>/Applications/VMware\ Fusion.app/Contents/Library/vmrun -T fusion start "/Users/Shared/v1.vmwarevm/v2.vmx" gui</string> </array> <key>RunAtLoad</key> <true/> <key>StandardOutPath</key> <string>/var/log/jpmcvmware.log</string> <key>StandardErrorPath</key> <string>/var/log/jpmcvmware.log</string> </dict> </plist>
However, launchd only allows one argument per "ProgramArguments" key. Thus you need to move your commands to a script, and have the .plist reference that script. So do this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>Label</key> <string>com.yourcompanyhere.vmware</string> <key>ProgramArguments</key> <array> <string>/Library/Scripts/vmwarescript.sh/string> </array> <key>RunAtLoad</key> <true/> <key>StandardOutPath</key> <string>/var/log/jpmcvmware.log</string> <key>StandardErrorPath</key> <string>/var/log/jpmcvmware.log</string> </dict> </plist>
Deploy this .plist to the Mac Pros into the /Library/LaunchDaemons directory. Ensure it has 644 permissions.
Then create the script that the .plist references:
#!/bin/sh /usr/bin/logger "Trying to start vmware VM's now..." /Applications/VMware\ Fusion.app/Contents/Library/vmrun -T fusion start "/Users/Shared/v1.vmwarevm/v1.vmx" gui sleep 5 /Applications/VMware\ Fusion.app/Contents/Library/vmrun -T fusion start "/Users/Shared/v2.vmwarevm/v2.vmx" gui sleep 5
Save the script in the path you set in the .plist above (/Library/Scripts/vmwarescript.sh).
- The VM's are located in a central location, not in any particular user's home directory.
- The VM's are set to run with a GUI. If you never want your users to access the host Mac's Virtual Machine Library, change "gui" to "nogui". The VM's will still be accessible over VNC and ssh.
Finally, enable the launchd event with the command:
launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.jpmc.yourcompanyhere.plist
If you want to find out who the most recent users on your Mac have been, there are ways to do that. Maybe you want to see if someone has been using your Mac. Or how many times you've logged in. Or, if it's your employer's Mac, who has been using it. You might also want to reliably know who the current user is. (Hint: "whoami" is unreliable, for if you're in as sudo or root, it will report that, not the current console user.)
The typical way to scrape the current and most recent users list is the command "last -t console". You will find many websites saying this is definitively the way to find this information, and that if you wanted to pore over that data manually, it's in /var/log/wtmp.
Not so.
First, you will find that a non-admin user in OS X will get no output from the "last -t console" command.
And when you go poking around wtmp, you'll find it empty.
You see, Apple moved away from using wtmp after Mac OS X 10.4. That was a while ago. But many websites claim to this day that it's still in use.
Where did Apple move this information? To /var/log/asl. That's a directory containing binary files with all the login information you are seeking.
The problem? It's restricted with 600 permissions. This is why "last -t console" fails for non-admin users.
As you can guess the solution here is easy; relax those permissions. Do a "chmod -R 666 /var/log/asl". And bingo, your users can run the "last" command without issue.
We have two JSS's, one for Development/Testing and one for Production. We want to be able to swap our test Macs back & forth as needed. Unfortunately, JAMF doesn't provide an "unenroll" switch for the jamf command line tool. You can "removeFramework" but that deletes everything JAMF-related from the workstation so you cannot enroll programmatically and are stuck obtaining a new QuickAdd package and running from the GUI. So I wrote a script to get around that.
There are only two files you need to preserve prior to removing the JAMF framework so that you can re-enroll later:
/Library/Preferences/com.jamfsoftware.jamf.plist /usr/sbin/jamf
Once those are saved, you're good to roll. Here is the script:
#!/bin/sh # January 17, 2014, Kurt Tappe # This script will swap JSS' # Set server addresses prod="https://your.server.here:8443/" dev="https://your.otherserver.here:8443/" # Which JSS are we running from? jss=`/usr/sbin/jamf checkJSSConnection | grep https | cut -d "/" -f3` if [ "$jss" = "" ]; then echo "Error: JSS could not be determined. You may need to first enroll this Mac in a JSS using QuickAdd." exit elif [ "$jss" = "your.server.here:8443" ]; then echo "Currently connected to $jss. Switching to Dev..." newjss=$dev else echo "Currently connected to $jss. Switching to Prod..." newjss=$prod fi # Preserve prefs & binary cp /Library/Preferences/com.jamfsoftware.jamf.plist /Library/Preferences/com.jamfsoftware.jamf.backup cp /usr/sbin/jamf /usr/sbin/jamfbackup # Disconnect echo "Removing framework..." /usr/sbin/jamf removeFramework sleep 5 # Restore old prefs and modify them with the new JSS URL echo "Restoring prefs & enrolling..." cp /Library/Preferences/com.jamfsoftware.jamf.backup /Library/Preferences/com.jamfsoftware.jamf.plist cp /usr/sbin/jamfbackup /usr/sbin/jamf defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.jamfsoftware.jamf allowInvalidCertificate -boolean true defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.jamfsoftware.jamf jss_url -string $newjss defaults delete /Library/Preferences/com.jamfsoftware.jamf last_management_framework_change_id # Reconnect /usr/sbin/jamf enroll -noRecon
One thing required for this to work is for you to not be forcing the use of certificates. Yes, we use them, but for ease of management we don't require them for enrollment, so that we can do things like run these scripts.
Hope this helps,
So let's say you're writing a bash script and need to glean data from your JSS about a particular Mac workstation. In this case, you have the workstation name and you want to know the Mac's IP address. Well, JAMF has provided a means to do that via the REST API.
If you contact JAMF, they'll show you a way to obtain info about any Mac workstation in the JSS if you already know its computer ID in the JSS:
curl -v -u USERNAME:PASSWORD https://JSS.URL:8443/JSSResource/computers/id/###/subset/general -X GET | xpath //computer/general/ip_address | sed -e 's/\<ip_address>//g; s/\<\/ip_address>//g'
This is hardly useful though, as who knows each workstation's ID? (The ID happens to be pretty much random; it's a chronological increment based on when the Mac was enrolled in the JSS. Your 9th Mac is "9", your 47th is "47", etc.)
The other problem is that both 'curl' and 'xpath' are very verbose in their output. If you're writing a command-line utility, you don't want them mucking up the user's screen. Luckily there's a better way.
curl -v -u USERNAME:PASSWORD https://JSS.URL:8443/JSSResource/computers/name/NAME/subset/General | grep -Eo '<ip_address>[0-9]{1,3}.[0-9]{1,3}.[0-9]{1,3}.[0-9]{1,3}' | cut -d ">" -f2
(Note: I attempted to use 'sed' instead of 'grep' & 'cut' above, but 'sed' just wouldn't parse the tag-laden output. Ping me if you have a solution.)
In both examples above, you of course need to substitute your authentication into USERNAME and PASSWORD, your JSS address into JSS.URL, and in the bottom example the workstation name you're referencing into NAME.
If you try the commands directly in Terminal you'll see the entire transaction with the server, but don't worry; if you pipe the output to a file or use it in a full script, the output will be clean.
I'll post more code snippets as I develop them. Specifically, I'm trying to do the reverse of the above; take an IP address and convert it into a workstation name or (better yet) serial number. Watch this space.
If you're trying to install updates or upgrades to Adobe Creative Suite, you may run across a refusal of the updater to run. The error will resemble:
Update failed, updates have been suppressed by the Administrator
Funny thing is, you actually are the likely cause of this error. Remember back when you were packaging Creative Suite using Adobe Application Manager Enterprise Edition (AAMEE)? Near the end of the series of dialog boxes you went through, you clicked "Prevent Updates".
And there we are. Adobe remembered this and is continuing to suppress updates. It doesn't care if you're the admin; updates are suppressed!
The fix is easy even if the path to it is long. What you need to do is edit or delete this file:
/Library/Application Support/Adobe/AAMUpdaterInventory/1.0/AdobeUpdaterAdminPrefs.dat
Removing it is draconian but quick & easy. All you need gone / changed is the line within it that reads:
Make the "1" a "0" or just delete that line.
This is all documented by Adobe here, but Googling or Binging the subject is often fruitless. So I'm reposting here to make it easier for all to find.
Update April 2015: I was able to retain a copy of the Yosemite 10.10.3 Beta update via this same method. The trick is the updates do get erased if you let App Store install and reboot. You generally have 60 seconds after the download completes and before Finder shuts down to locate the update file and copy or duplicate it.
Back before all Apple updates came to be distributed through the App Store, it was easy to retain software updates. You just told Software Update app to Keep Updates through its menu system.
There are distinct advantages to retaining updates instead of redownloading them every time. Bandwidth, which Apple seems to think we all have in abundance, is a large one, especially considering many updates are measured in gigabytes these days. But perhaps you also want to keep an update for use in AutoDMG, InstaDMG, Munki, or Casper Suite.
With the advent of App Store, these updates are notably harder to retain. But if you're quick, you can still keep them. Follow these steps:
1) Initiate the download of the update using App Store.
2) Once the download is complete, look in /Library/Updates/[random #]
OK, the number probably isn't random, but you're unlikely to find out Apple's numbering system, so just look at the most recently updated numerical folder inside /Library/Updates. Your .pkg will be there waiting for you.

Syracuse, NY -- The New York State Thruway extended the closure to a total of 122 miles between Syracuse and Schenectady Monday after flooding from Irene raised concerns about the safety of a bridge in Montgomery County, troopers said.
Eastbound traffic was diverted off Interstate 90 in DeWitt starting around 2 p.m. Monday. Westbound traffic was closed from Exit 25 (Schenectady) to DeWitt. The detours are all to keep traffic off a bridge over the flooded Schoharie Creek. The previous bridge collapsed in 1987, killing 10 people.
Read more storm Irene coverage.
"It's been crazy," said Sgt. Martin Zubrzycki, of the state police's Thruway troop. "After rush hour, word has gotten out. Traffic has whittled down pretty well."
The closure originally extended from DeWitt to Amsterdam, just past the flooded creek area. But by 9 p.m., the closure was extended to Schenectady after concerns about motorists exiting the Thruway in flooded areas. The detour was expected to last until at least this afternoon, officials said.
For a short time around 8 p.m., there were also plans to open the Thruway up to local traffic from Canastota to Fultonville, but those plans were quickly shelved.
Besides the Thruway, Syracuse travelers by airplane, train and bus were also stranded by the aftermath of Irene, the diminished hurricane that caused major flooding in the Hudson and Mohawk river valleys.
Airplanes from Hancock International Airport to New York's John F. Kennedy and Newark's Liberty International airports were grounded Monday, said Syracuse aviation commissioner Christina Reale.
That included Delta Air Lines and Jet Blue service to JFK, and Continental Airlines flights to Newark Liberty International Airport. Service resumed Monday to New York's LaGuardia Airport and to Philadelphia International Airport, she said.
All Amtrak service from Syracuse will be canceled today, an employee at the Syracuse station said. Greyhound and Megabus service resumed Monday, with Trailways of New York expected to resume limited service this morning.
But the most unexpected closure was the stretch of Interstate 90 that links Syracuse to Albany.
Zubrzycki, the trooper, said the concern is that bridge inspectors can't check the Schoharie Creek bridge's soundness because the water is too high. When the previous bridge collapsed April 5, 1987, five vehicles fell into the creek and 10 people died.
It's near Fort Hunter, a hamlet in Montgomery County on the Mohawk River.
The reason traffic is being detoured at Syracuse is because officials don't want the large volume of Thruway traffic to be detoured onto rural roads at the site of the bridge.
Diverting people in the Syracuse area gives them more options, Zubrzycki said.
However, it's not just the Thruway that's closed. Interstate 88, which links Binghamton to Albany, is closed in Schoharie County. And Routes 20 and 5S, which follow the Thruway, are closed in the Utica area due to flooding.
The suggested Thruway detour takes motorists from DeWitt south on Interstate 481 to I-81 south. From there, they travel to Binghamton and pick up state Route 17 through the Catskills to eastbound Interstate 84 at Middletown. Interstate 84 connects to the northbound Thruway (I-87), which goes to Albany through the Hudson Valley. That's about 300 miles, more than double the Thruway distance from Syracuse to Albany.
Here is a map of the detour:

There is 2.. in spring my husband and I (started yesterday again : ) .. go on fast paced hour long scenic nature walks when he gets home from work each morning and we have so much time looking at the animals, scenery and visiting we are always surprised how fast it goes, so even though we do it for health/exercise it doesn't even feel like it because it's so enjoyable. : )
The other one is.. even though we feed a wide variety of wildlife in our back yard and even up on our patio all year around.. we get extra excited starting in spring because some of our animals like ducks, geese, robins, some other birds that leave for winter come back and join the other year round animals again. We are always so happy to see them back .. we miss them while they are gone even though there are other animals all year. And then the ducks start having babies and bring them all to our patio to eat too sooooooo cute, they come so close to our sliding glass doors often times it feels like they are right in our living room with us and we love animals soooooo much I can't tell you how much we love it! They even knock on the window when they want more food haha Here is one of the spring pics of a mommy duck with her babies last year sitting on our patio right by our sliding doors. : ) We have a big collection of wildlife pics of all kinds of animals. : ) They are by far our favorite thing about spring that we love to spend time feeding, watching, talking to them , taking pics of them etc.
My girls with our finds.

I have six locks on my door all in a row. When I go out, I lock every other one. I figure no matter how long somebody stands there picking the locks, they are always locking three.

Where I stayed
Hotel Bellini
What a difference a sunny day makes! We awoke in sunny Catania, Sicily which is located on the Sicily's south eastern shoreline. It was once a Greek settlement, part of Magna Graecia 500 hundred years before Christ. It was eventually over run by the Romans, but hey, they over ran everyone! The Romans swapped out the God figures in the Greek Temples, or adopted them as their own, as was their habit. Later, during the Christian period, the Church built basilicas right on top of the Greek (then Roman) temples. There is a basilica here in Catania that has a large square hole in the floor of the main cathedral. They have placed a fence around the pit to insure none of the faithful fall into it. At the base of the deep pit is the large base of a Greek column, providing proof to the locals that their church sits over the other temple. The Church has a habit of building right on top of other's religious places as though to sanctify them
Back in Catania, we walked around. It is much warmer, probably high 60s or low 70s. This is a beautiful city. The architecture is wonderful, with lots of stone, wrought Iron, and balconies. The city sits on the western flank of Mount Etna, an active volcano. Etna has erupted over the years and the city faithful believe that their patron Saint, Santa Agata has protected the city from destruction. There are paintings around the city depicting the Volcano doing it's thing, and the Saint Agata doing hers. The story behind Saint Agata is interesting. She was a virtuous virgin, and was doing fine, until she was was approached by a nefarious man named Quintian. She resisted his lecherous advances and was horribly mutilated for her resistance. Her remains now reside in a jewel encrusted box that is revered by the locals here. The container is brought into the streets every Feb 5th for a procession through the city under fireworks. Many hundreds of thousands of people attend. I managed to take a photo or two of her shrine, which was basically a photograph of the authentic box. While there, numerous worshipers appeared to pay their respects, make a donation, and say a quiet prayer there.
Probably the most fun yesterday was visiting the fish, meat and vegetable market. It was a going concern and has been in business here for centuries. The vendors were calling out the praises of their bright eyed fresh fish. I saw a lot of fish I did not recognize. The locals were tolerant of my prying camera lens. All the locals that is with the exception of one, who grumbled to me in Italian
It was a colorful and fun experience. They sell the fruit of the prickly pear cactus here. There are lots of palm trees, bananas, orange, lemon, grapefruit, and of course olives here. There were some veggies I did not recognize.
By and large the Italian's like to have a good time. They love to dicker and bargain, love to laugh, some of them love to sing. Yesterday we walked through a grand park here in town, and there was a teenaged kid who was a Pavarotti wanna be. I saw him initially sitting with two friends and as they were talking, he would break into song. Later, as Barb and I walked around the park, I could hear him singing on and on, even though I couldn't see him any more. I could hear him clear across the park! I thought, " Hard to carry on a conversation with someone who is belting it out for the world to hear". He was kind of human boombox. I don't think I would go for a walk in the park with that guy. But who knows? We could have another Sinatra on our hands here.
We have noticed a difference in the populations and food stalls here
We are jumping the train today to move further west along the southern coast of Sicily, nearly to the southern most tip, to the town of Syracuse, or Syracuse as they call it. Stay tuned
Post your own travel photos for friends and family More Pictures & Videos
Glad you finally got some sun in Sicilly. My friend, Vincenzo, in Palermo promised me he would do that for you. The rest of Europe is shivering and snowy right now. The gods are with you. Enjoy.

Source: *U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics
What Will My Career in Animal Husbandry Entail?
It will be your responsibility to choose animals for breeding that will ultimately display the traits desired by your clients. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), desirable traits might include sheep that produce thicker wool or cows that produce more milk (www.bls.gov). You may work with a wide range of animals, including chickens, goats, cattle and other farm animals. You may also work with domestic animals, including cats, dogs and pet birds.
To increase your chances for successful breeding, you must understand the physiology of the animals you are attempting to breed; this requires careful monitoring and analysis of the animals. You may breed animals using artificial insemination; this is most common with very expensive or large animals, including horses. Your work in animal husbandry may involve a mix of outdoor and laboratory-based work; you might need to travel to clients' farms.
How Much Could I Earn?
According to the BLS, the mean annual salary for animal breeders in 2014 was $43,470. The highest concentration of animal breeders was in Kentucky, where approximately 110 individuals were employed in this field. The annual mean salary for breeders in Kentucky was $36,900. The highest-paying state for this occupation in 2014 was Washington, with an average salary of $70,630. Breeders in New York had the second-highest average annual salary among all states at $52,180 in 2014, as reported by the BLS.
What Types of Degree Programs are Available?
You can begin your career in animal husbandry without formal education, though earning a degree may be required by some employers. You can study animal husbandry at the associate's, bachelor's or master's degree level. Both animal science and agriculture business programs may include coursework in animal breeding, with some programs offering concentrations in this field.
The study of animal husbandry involves learning about various animals with regards to physiology and behaviors. You'll also study genetics in order to better understand how to achieve the best results when breeding. Related to genetics is the study of statistics; the potential expenses and complications associated with animal husbandry make a keen knowledge of statistical analysis useful.

This so far has got to be my favorite deck of all time.
Great for magic and cardistry, and also the only deck I feel comfortable doing "under pressure" with. Great stock, not too thin but not incredibly stiff either. Fantastic finish,smooth enough too fan easily, but they stick together great for aerial flourishes.
The artifice line is some of my favorite cards, the blue are my favorite. They handle like a dream and don't wear out too easily. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
I love this deck. I've been able to practice and perform and these cards are still in great condition. After about 3 weeks of using these cards, they still feel amazing. On top of that, they look and feel great! Really good cards.
These are some of the best card I've ever used I'm so glad I purchased them extremely classy looking as well as smooth flourishes
The only actual problem is: I hate to use them in effects where I have them signed, I lose one that way.
So far they seem to do everything I have seen here in the reviews, except fan themselves. You have to move your hand a little for that.
Moving away from darker cards, but I will still get these for special events. Classy.
I love this deck! The borders look great, and it still have that mysterious look! AND it handles like a dream!!! :D
I absolutely love this deck it is completely amazing the way it feels is very good. 6/5 stars I love how the Jokers look too. Blows my mind whenever I hold them in my hand.
The art design for the cards are absolutely beautiful and the white borders just compliment the whole set. The performance coating makes the cards just glide across from each other with little frustration. an excellent deck for beginners.
The performance coating is just wonderful. Right out of the box they fan flawlessly and handle like a champ. Unlike other reviewers, I am a bit disappointed by the white borders added to the second edition. I guess it's just a matter of taste. These cards are definitely well made, superior to many others and should last a long time. Quality built in. Thanks Ellusionist.
i have always been trying to find a deck that is better than bicycle, i now have found it. the finish on these cards are so fine, they fan silky smooth and are just amazing to look at. these cards will add to any performance.
Hello from Spain, these are the best cards you've had, I love the finish coating performance, and it is certain that photos do not do it justice. In person are much more beautiful.
The elegance of Artifice now meets the functionality of a regular deck of cards meeting the constantly evolving demand by magicians for deck of cards that looks and performs better than anything else on the market. I'm in love with this design!
I love the new Artifice deck, the borders just add a wow factor. I would love to see these cards come out with another option, and that would be to have the option of white or BLACK borders. That would be tight. overall best deck yet.
There is nothing bad about these cards. The white borders make the back seem brighter yet still just as mysterious as the original version. They handle just as well and catch even more attention the originals. I give this 6 out of 5 stars.
The borders look extra clean. Nice and white.
Fans like a champ and the stock is very durable.
I like it a lot and think other people should give it a shot.

West Texas A&M's Davy Arnaud, Clay King and Kathy Clutterbuck were named the Lone Star Conference's players of the week after guiding both the Buffs and the Lady Buffs to three victories each last week.
Arnaud, a junior foward from Nederland, had six goals and two assists in WT's victories against Dallas Baptist, Southwestern Oklahoma and Northeastern State. He had three goals in the matchup against Southwestern Oklahoma and increased his team-leading total to 11 on the season.
King, a junior defender from Arlington, was a key part of a WT defense that limited its three opponents to only 15 total shots. His play helped guide the Buffs to their sixth shutout in 14 matches.
Clutterbuck, a junior midfielder from Toronto, had four goals in the Lady Buffs' three victories, as well. Her shot early against Central Oklahoma allowed WT to take the LSC lead with a 1-0 victory.

UA Gameday offers information on travel routes, traffic, parking, closed streets and more throughout the weekend, reaching out to fans through its website, mobile apps, emails, Twitter and Facebook to give updates and tips on getting around Tuscaloosa on football Saturdays.
Fans can also get information from the city by calling 311, which can be accessed beginning three hours before kickoff and will be available until kickoff.
Getting to Campus
UA Gameday suggests that visitors coming from the Birmingham area take Interstate 20/59 instead of Interstate 459, which has seen traffic backups before some Tide home games. There are four main routes to campus from I-20/59, but the university suggests taking the "Cottondale Route" and "Route 216" for access to parking on the east side of campus or exiting at I-359 for access to downtown parking.
- The "Cottondale Route": Take Exit 79 off of I-20/59 and proceed west on University Boulevard East. At the fork of Highway 11 and Highway 215, bear right onto Highway 215 to continue on University Boulevard toward campus.
- "Route 216" (not a preferred route for RVs): Fans traveling from Birmingham can take exit 100 off of I-20/59 and take a right on Route 216. Keep straight at the intersection of Highway 216 and University Boulevard East and continue on 15th Street East. Turn right on 6th Avenue East toward campus.
- "359 route": Take exit 71 B off of I-20/59 and merge onto Interstate 359 north. I-359 north ends and becomes Lurleen B. Wallace Boulevard near downtown. Continue on Wallace Boulevard. Turn right onto Paul W. Bryant Drive or University Boulevard to head east toward campus.
- The "McFarland Route": Take exit 73 off I-20/59 and proceed north on McFarland Boulevard. Exit McFarland Boulevard at University Boulevard and head west toward campus.
Many fans making the trip from Mississippi will be take Highway 82 east or I-20/59 north to Tuscaloosa. From Highway 82 heading south, visitors can decide to follow it into Tuscaloosa as it turns into McFarland Boulevard to access the east side of campus or take Highway 69 south to downtown. Drivers heading north on I-20/59 toward Tuscaloosa should take the 359 route.
This week, the homecoming parade will tie up University Boulevard from Greensboro Avenue downtown to Hackberry Lane on the east side of the UA campus. Road blocks for the parade will go up at 2 p.m., so fans coming into town Saturday will want to avoid University Boulevard. UA Gameday has a list of normal gameday road blocks and street closings, some of which begin as early as 5 p.m. on Friday.
There are several options for parking on gameday. Reserved spots in paved lots on campus are available for the rest of the season for $100 and for single games in advance for $25. On gameday, grass lots on the east side of campus near the intersection of University Boulevard and Fifth Avenue East will cost $20 to park. Parking at nearby paved lots at the University Medical Center, the Child Development Research Center, Rhoads Stadium or the Recreation Center costs $30. Crimson Ride runs a free shuttle that stops near all of these lots and drops off at Morgan Hall near the Quad beginning three hours before the game.
Free parking is available in and near the downtown intermodal facility located on 23rd Avenue between Sixth and Seventh Street. Tuscaloosa Transit will begin running buses five hours before kickoff until one hour after the end of the game. The price per person for each trip is $1 for adults, 50 cents for those over 60 and with disabilities and free for children 3 and under.
All on-campus RV parking lots are at capacity, but UA Gameday has listed a few options for off-site RV parking. The university also offers a free lot behind Bruno's Supermarket on McFarland Boulevard.
The Campus Drive Deck at Hackberry Lane has disability parking available for $25. Shuttles will run from the deck to the Quad beginning at 7 a.m. and to Bryant-Denny Stadium beginning three hours before kickoff. Post-game shuttles will pick up on the west side of the stadium beginning at the end of the third quarter and run one hour after the game ends.
The three disability parking lots located on Wallace Wade near University Boulevard, across from Calvary Baptist Church on Paul W. Bryant Drive and at Reese Phifer Hall are sold out.
There are also several off-campus lots, some with shuttle availability. Fans can park at University Mall on McFarland Boulevard for free and catch a shuttle round-trip for $10 per person beginning at noon. Other off-campus parking lots available for a fee are located at the Downtown Plaza on Queen City Avenue, the Parkview Shopping Center at the corner of Hackberry Lane and 14th Street and at the DCH Regional Medical Center employee parking lot at the corner of Bryant Drive and 5th Avenue.
Two Tuscaloosa City schools also offer vehicle parking for $20. Fans parking at the Tuscaloosa Magnet School located off McFarland Boulevard and Campus Drive East can walk to a Fifth Avenue East shuttle stop. Central High School on 15th Street also offers vehicle parking for $20 and RV parking for $150.
If you're looking for a closer, less expensive place to park, keep in mind that parking on the shoulder or median of Jack Warner Parkway is now illegal and that towing will be enforced. Here are a few more violations that the Tuscaloosa Police Department will enforce.
Getting home
For drivers traveling east on I-20/59, UA Gameday offers the tip of taking University Boulevard east through Alberta and Cottondale to access Highway 216, which leads back to the interstate. Law enforcement will work at the intersection of University Boulevard and Highway 216 to ensure traffic flow.
A quick way to I-20/59 is taking I-359 south, which can be accessed via Bryant Drive, University Boulevard, Jack Warner Parkway, or 10th Avenue. On the last exit ramp at the south end of I-359, keep left to travel toward Birmingham and keep right to travel toward Meridian.
Other routes to I-20/59 include taking McFarland Boulevard south and 15th Street east from campus.
Drivers heading back to Mississippi via Highway 82 can take McFarland Boulevard north to head back home, or take Lurleen Wallace Boulevard from downtown and turn left onto Highway 82 in Northport. Visitors traveling south on on I-20/59 can take I-359 south.

DETROIT — Rumbling semi trucks hauling reefer trailers passed as picketers raised signs saying "raise the wage" outside the popular Russell Street Deli in Detroit's Eastern Market Wednesday.
The nearly 20 activists chose the eatery as the site of their protest demanding an increase to Michigan's minimum wage from $7.40 to $10 per hour not because it is shortchanging its employees, but because it is a model business already paying employees a living wage.
"We got people up above $10 per hour, we've got people who are waitstaff who are making as much as $10 per hour," said Jason Murphy, 36, of Hamtramck, who owns the eatery with his business partner, Ben Hall. "It hasn't hurt our business; it's actually helped our business in that it's created a strong sense of ownership for the staff in that they feel well take care of."
Murphy said his hourly employees start out earning $8.50 per hour and receive an increase to $10 per hour after a 90-day probation period.
"We have people in the kitchen making as high as $15 per hour" and "we have health insurance and an IRA for our employees and dental," he added.
The motive for the generous pay in an industry that has a reputation for low wages comes from personal experience.
"I've been in the restaurant industry since I was about 17 years old," Murphy said. "I've worked at restaurants like Big Boy and Taco Bell so I'm well aware of what it's like to live week to week.
"We immediately instituted a policy to raise our workers wages so they wouldn't have to go through the same types of situations that we had to deal with particularly in our early 20s."
The rally is one of two taking place in Michigan Wednesday in support of House Bill 4544, a law introduced by state Rep. Rashida Talib, D-Detroit, that would require the minimum wage be increased to $10 per hour by 2016 for hourly employees and from $2.65 per hour to $3 per hour by 2014 for tipped workers.
The second rally is scheduled to take place in Lansing at 2:30 p.m.
"If a full-time worker, which means you don't get sick, you show up every single day, you worrk full time, no vacations, $15,000 per year," Woodward said. "There is no person that can afford a two-bedroom apartment" on that wage.
"Today, standing with our brothers and sisters all across the country, we're bringing attention to this."
The national minimum wage is currently $7.25 per hour. Based on Michigan's rate, which is 15 cents per hour higher, a worker would earn $15,392 per year working full time, rally organizers said.
Talib's bill calls for the minimum wage to increase incrementally:
- $7.90 by Jan. 1, 2014
- $8.40 by July 1, 2014
- $9 by Jan. 1, 2015
- $9.50 by July 1, 2015
- $10 by Jan. 1, 2016
"The economy has been doing poorly since I was born in the city of Detroit," Murphy said. "So it doesn't seem to really slow it down as you have a good product and continue to grow the business in a positive fashion.
"People want to be a part of that."

Qualification history
Congo have yet to grace a FIFA World Cup™ despite enjoying a golden era several decades back, which yielded a continental title in 1972. The closest they came was a spot at France 1998, when their ticket ultimately went to South Africa after a 1-0 loss to their closest rivals in the final round of group games. Congo's last two attempts have seen the team unable to force their way into the third round on both occasions.
The team
Their 1970s heyday may be long gone, but Les Diables Rouges (Red Devils) can draw on a considerable pool of talent, including the generation of players who appeared at the FIFA U-17 World Cup 2011. They likewise boast a number of stalwarts enriched by spells in Europe's biggest leagues, and they will be hopeful of having their say on the road to Russia. In particular, midfielders Delvin Ndinga and Prince Oniangue have both showcased their talents in French Ligue 1, while forward Thievy Bifouma knows all about top-level football thanks to stints in England and Spain.
The coach
Now in charge of his fifth African national side after spells with Cameroon, Senegal, Congo DR and Ghana, Claude Le Roy is a coach who needs little introduction. Dubbed Le Sorcier Blanc (the White Wizard), the Frenchman has also overseen Malaysia, Oman and Syria, enjoying plenty of success along the way. He led Cameroon to victory in the CAF Africa Cup of Nations and later took Oman to Gulf Cup glory, but he has yet to steer a team all the way to a World Cup finals. Le Roy resigned in November 2015 after leading the side into the third stage of Russia 2018 qualifiers.
The stat
16 – Congo's all-time leading scorer is Macchambes Younga-Mouhani, who holds that title despite a modest haul of 16 goals for Les Diables Rouges. His record thus lies tantalisingly within reach for the nation's current forwards.
The former stars
Paul Moukila, Jean-Michel Mbono, Germain Ndzabana

Buy The Primal Blueprint. Read it
Greetings all!
I was hoping to get some advice and critique about my current nutrition plan.
I have been going "somewhat" primal for 3 weeks or so now, I have seen results but not necessarily the results I'm looking for! i realize I'm new but still trying to see what works for me given my nutrition/workout plan. I'm 6'2" male and always had a fairly thin frame (swimmers body), and started at 171 or so and have dropped 9 pounds in the last 3 weeks. I'm not really looking to lose weight to be honest, my gain goal is just to lose as much fat as possible. It seems I've lost a maybe a little fat, but not really a noticeable difference. I'm also not interested in getting huge or building muscle really - just prefer to be more lean (less fat).
I have always eaten fairly healthy (I realize that is quite subjective), but have started to cut out grains all together (have noticed a nice improvement in my digestive functions etc). I also used to be big on Muscle Milk and protein bars for snacks but I've cut those out too.
Here's a typical days diet for me (atleast over the past 3 weeks or so):
Breakfast - 4eggs, cooked
Snacks - pisatchios & a couple hard boiled eggs, snack on carrots throughout the day
lunch - salad (lettuce, spinach, kale) with tuna and avocado
snack - fruit (berries or bananas) and a couple hard boiled eggs
aftnoon - salad (lettuce, spinach, kale) with tuna and avocado
dinner - salad (lettuce, spinach, kale) with steak or chicken or chicken sausages (sometimes with guacamole)
"desert" - almond butter.
I used to eat 3-4 bananas a day mainly for snacks, but I'm experimenting in cutting those back and just going with berries instead. I also do have a "cheat" day once a week, but i don't go too crazy - maybe some black beans, hummus, tortilla and maybe some arctic zero ice cream for desert.
I also tend to workout 5 to 6 times per week. Generally I run 10-11 miles or so a week, lift once or twice a week, yoga once a week, swim once a week and water polo once a week. Since beginning cutting out grains I do sometimes feel tired throughout the day but I'm always able to finish my workouts and still feel pretty strong - still lifting as much as I did before. I don't want to cut down on my workouts - i enjoy being active, even if its not necessarily helping me lose fat.
Maybe up the fat in take? I've always been pretty big on fruit (especially bananas) and wondering if thats holding me back.
So anyway - any guidance you could provide would be great and much appreciated!!

Four years Primal with influences from Jaminet & Shanahan and a focus on being anti-inflammatory. Using Primal to treat CVD and prevent stents from blocking free of drugs.
Eat creatures nose-to-tail (animal, fowl, fish, crustacea, molluscs), a large variety of vegetables (raw, cooked and fermented, including safe starches), dairy (cheese & yoghurt), occasional fruit, cocoa, turmeric & red wine
If you are eating enough protien, losing weight, but not seeing the results in reduced measurements you are probably losing internal fat from round your organs - there's a proper word for that but you can reseach that for yourself
You know all those pictures of Adam and Eve where they have belly button? Think about it..................... take as long as you need........................
It has only been 3 weeks, it's tough to lose fat and see definition right away. Just keep doing what you've been doing. 3 weeks is nothing at all. I know you don't want to get big muscles but heavy weights really are useful. I'd suggest you lift more along with your usual routine. Maybe try intermittent fasting too?

"I'm not a psychopath, I'm a high-functioning sociopath; do your research."
It is contradictory thing that is happening with your fat and weight as these two aspect of body is related to each other. If there is reduction in fat the weight too get reduced and hence directly proportional to each other. Just weigh properly and post again.
You're a 6'2" male. Started at 171 lbs and have lost 9 lbs putting you at around 162 lbs now? What do you imagine your ideal weight to be? What do you think your current body fat percentage is? Under 165 lbs is pretty light for a 6'2" frame no matter what the body type unless your still a teenager.

If we agree that calories play at least some part in the equation, do you know what your calorie and macro nutrient intake is? snacks are fine, but realistically, if you are eating right, there shouldn't really be a desire or need to snack. What macro %'s are you trying to work with, you might well be too high on the protein and too low on the fat. The eggs must account for 40 grms of protein a day, if you are having another 2 tins of tuna, that'd be another 80 grms (you might be splitting the tin of course), then the steak, could be another 60-70 grms or more, all adds up.
I tend to like the 'moderate' protein thing rather than a shed load of protein, and it doesn't look from your workouts that you are really in muscle building mode, which is fine too.
Try to look at the macros, balance them out to a workable level and see how it goes.
dude you are eating very low carb. You should probably include some sweet potatoes or plantains etc. For your height you WILL lose weight (but not fat if your fat ratio is high as well) eating with so little carbs. If cutting is your goal then push your exercise and weights, LHT's with shorter sets etc. Just a thought

FONDA - In the second half of Friday night's Colonial Council girls basketball game, Fonda-Fultonville out hustled, outshot, outrebounded and outscored Cobleskill-Richmondville.
Despite outscoring the Bulldogs 34-24 in the second half, the Lady Braves could not overcome a lackluster first-half performance as they fell to Cobleskill-Richmondville, 58-53, at Fonda-Fultonville High School.
"It was 17-2 against Schalmont and you can't recover from that," Fonda-Fultonville coach Wendi Waters said. "Tonight it was 17-5 it just took us out of the game you can't have starts like that. I am proud of the way they came back but the teams in this league make you pay for everything. Any little mistake like a slow start, they are going to capitalize on it. It is frustrating because I know we are capable of more."

Fonda-Fultonville's Jeananna Warner (22) battles with Cobleskill-Richmondville's Erica Tracy (25) for an offfensive rebound during Friday night's Colonial Council game at Fonda-Fultonville High School. (The Leader-Herald/James A. Ellis)
The Bulldogs established control of the game early in the opening quarter, forcing turnovers by the Fonda-Fultonville ball handlers. C-R capitalized on the turnovers to build a 17-5 first quarter lead.
The Bulldogs stretched the advantage to 29-5 with 12 unanswered points. Emily Frollo broke the Fonda-Fultonville scoring drought with her basket with 4:28 left in the opening half.
The Lady Braves held the Bulldogs to three points, all from the free-throw line, over the final four minutes of the period. Emily Parslow delivered seven points in the final two minutes of the period to close the gap to 34-19 at the half.
The Lady Braves came out of the locker room rejuvenated and immediately went to work on the Cobleskill-Richmondville lead.
Frollo opened the Lady Braves' third-quarter scoring with a 3-pointer, but Cobleskill-Richmondville answered with six unanswered points to stretch its lead to 20, 42-22.
Fonda-Fultonville picked up its intensity on defense, pressing the Bulldogs from baseline to baseline, forcing turnovers and allowing only three points, again from the foul line, over the final four minutes.
Meanwhile, the Lady Braves chipped away at the Bulldogs' lead with Jeananna Warner putting up four points and grabbing key defensive rebounds to help trim the lead to 45-34 heading into the final eight minutes of play.
The tenacious Fonda-Fultonville defense again limited the Bulldogs' scoring from the field as Hannah Dibble hit twice from the field in the period for C-R's only field goals.
However, the press sent the Bulldogs' to the line 19 times in the quarter and they converted on nine of the attempts. The aggressive defense also cost Fonda-Fultonville as Cassandra Egelston and Taylor Wetsky fouled out with just more than three minutes to play.
Parslow found her range from behind the arc in the closing minutes, nailing three 3-pointers to go with one from Frollo. The duo also added five points from the free-throw line to the Bulldogs' lead from 12 to five before time ran out.
"We were supposed to be pressing like that in the first half," Waters said. "We didn't change anything they just did it in the second half. I wish I had an answer to get them to play hard for four quarters. Tuesday night against Voorheesville they played their hearts out. That was the best I have seen a team of mine play since the Mechanicville game last year. They played hard the entire game."
Parslow led the Lady Braves with 26 points, including five 3-pointers. Frollo finished with 15 points, while Warner pulled down 11 rebounds to go with four points.
"Parslow was sick. That was all heart," Waters said. "Obviously, I am proud of the way they played in the second half. They could have given up but they chose to play their hearts out."
Dibble finished with 15 points for the Bulldogs (3-2 overall, 2-2 Colonial Council), while Erica Tracy joined her in double-figures with 10.
Fonda-Fultonville (3-2 overall, 1-2 Colonial Council) return to their home court Tuesday for a league game against Cohoes.

Mexico Academy senior Nick Rodriguez is the dominant diver in Section III and perhaps the state of New York. In December, he set a new Section III record with a six-dive score of 370.95.
On Tuesday, he broke the pool record at Jamesville-DeWitt Middle School with a six-dive score of 344.45. The previous mark was set by J-D's Clayton Sutton (284.84).
This is a video of Rodriguez's final dive on Tuesday in a dual meet against the combined team of Jamesville-DeWitt and Christian Brothers Academy. He received scores of 8 from all three judges for this dive - a forward, two and one-half summersault with two twists in the free position. It has a degree of difficulty of 2.6.
"Nick is phenomenal," said his diving coach, Sally Oliver. "Nick is such a leader (for the other Mexico divers)."
Rodriguez also jumped in to compete in a couple of swimming events. He was fourth in the 50-yard freestyle in 25.28 seconds, an event just before the diving part of the meet. Rodriguez also swam a leg on Mexico's 200 free relay that finished second and a leg on the team's fourth-place 200 medley relay.
Next is an 11-dive meet on Friday at the Onondaga High School League championships. He and teammate Noah Galluzzo qualified for the state championships earlier this season at an 11-dive meet. Oliver said divers must qualify for states with a score of 420. Galluzzo qualified with a score of 445. Rodriguez qualified with a score of 544.
