Effects of TV, computer games, and smartphones on children
I have been living out of my home country, the Czech Republic, for more than seven years now and I like to go back time to time. One of the things I enjoy when I am there is to walk around familiar streets noticing changes that took place during my absence. Trees and bushes get bigger, house façades change colours, old shops disappear and new ones appear.
But there is another shift I am noticing that is much more profound and I believe it is having a greater impact and will have longer lasting consequences on our lives than the building of a new shopping mall.
The shift I am talking about has been taking place in recent years not only in the Czech Republic but all across the globe. There is an absence of children in the streets, children playing freely and happily together.
As a child, I played outside with my friends every day. I can remember that back then I enjoyed it very much, and now as a grown-up I can say with certainty that this play activity contributed to my healthy maturing as a social being and to my creative ability.
To be completely honest, it wasn't always pleasant – there were arguments, sometimes tears. But despite that, it was a lot of fun. I made some of my first friendships which grew and strengthened day by day. Those relationships were real and an instant feedback was always there – we served as mirrors to each other.
If I cheated in a game, my playmates would let me know, for sure! And when I shared my cookies, I had a chance to play with my friend's hamster. From older girls I learned tricks with a skipping rope and I showed my younger friend how to make a daisy chain. We told each other stories and organised singing contests. Thanks to our mutual social exchange, we learned a great deal.
The present reality is different from what my generation experienced. Today, children spend most of their day indoors and their playing partner is usually a computer or a television.
It might seem there is not much wrong with that. At least we know where our children are – in front of the screen they are safe from the world's dangers. And they are so 'good' while immersed in a computer game – focused, concentrated, quiet...
Medias are adding in, chanting their advertising mantras to sell us products with popular slogans: 'educational', 'improving children's capacities' and 'teaching new necessary skills'. It is shocking that 72 per cent of iTunes top-selling education apps are designed for pre-school and elementary school children. But in most cases, these 'educational' programmes only create a screen addiction in early age.
When we take a close look at what is happening when children spend their time in front of the screen, we clearly see that:
1. The children are not moving (as opposed to their natural state, which is constant fluid movement);
2. The children are not creating their own mental pictures (as opposed to what happens during creative play or during story-telling);
3. The children are not engaged in real live experience (this only occurs when children interact with their living surroundings).
Children need three-dimensional first-hand engagement. This is not only what maximises their learning but this also greatly contributes to children's wholesome experience of the world. Children learn best through loving relationships, through imaginative play and through hands-on experiences with elements and materials.
The way children spend their free time has changed drastically in recent years, but it is still a true fact that children all over the world and throughout time need to play, need human interaction and direct contact with nature.
A lot of the time children spend with screens takes time away from activities we know they need for their healthy growth and development.
Learning in the early years should be active on all levels, and children's needs – physical, intellectual, emotional and spiritual – should be well balanced and equally nourished. As educators and human beings capable of love and compassion we owe it to our children to teach them how to live fully in the real world.
By organising play dates, by taking part in community events, by telling our child a bedtime story and by going as a whole family for a walk in the countryside, we are creating such learning opportunities for our children.
If these ideas resonate with you or if you are interested in offering this type of education for your children, e-mail alternative [email protected].

Date of Stay: August, 2007
This was a real nice park in a beautiful area. We camped in the Senoia area which was nice and did have some sites on the water. We were to elevated to swim from our site. There were two bathrooms in our area, neither one was real impressive thus the ranking, with one being out of toilet paper on two occasions during our three night stay. The other bathroom was at the high point of the camping area, making the walk up the hill a little tough to say the least. Overall we really enjoyed our stay, the thought of going back with a boat or jet skis would be awesome. The Seven Points marina wanted $350 for a pontoon, which was about double the price a pontoon goes for on some other COE areas we've stayed at in the past. Plenty of stores in Huntingdon for supplies.
Date of Stay: July, 2007
We don't care for private campgrounds for the most part, but we enjoyed our stay at this park. The only negatives were the bathrooms and laundry, the stalls are so small my knees would be right up to the stall door, and I'm only 5'9". Not sure why they're so tight. The showers were similar as they had no privacy for changing, which didn't matter a lot since we were using them after swimming and would just wear our suits to and from and just change in the trailer. There were only two washers and two dryers. The restrooms were cleaned on a regular basis and the one we used appeared to have been remodeled, I guess retiled may be a better description. The real awesome part of this park is the beach. This was by far our best visit to the ocean. The Outer Banks in this area are not built up like the beaches in Florida or South Carolina. There's nice elbow room on the beach and the water was cooler making it more refreshing then our previous ocean visits to Myrtle Beach, Sanibel Island, and the Keys to name a few. We never even used the pool, but it looked nice enough. We would easily come back to this park as the price is fair compared to some others nearby that would've cost us over twice as much with charges for kids and dogs. I could see where the nearby houses could create noise problems, but the other campgrounds could have similar issues too. We just left the fan to the AC on at night and never heard noise from the rental houses. Traffic seemed real bad on Saturday on the main hwy, as most of the rentals rent Saturday to Saturday, so I'm glad I came and left during the week as traffic seemed minimal.
Date of Stay: July, 2007
We really enjoyed this park overall. Most sites are of decent size, we stayed in the Beaverdam section which had a new bathhouse in it which looked a lot nicer then the ones in the other two camping areas by far. The Lakeside campground was real nice but lacked electrical hookups, but did have an area in the bath room building to charge trolling motor batteries, as motors can't be used on the lake. I have read reports of the White Oak campground being tough to get into due to the bridge and the possibility of bottoming out, it looked as though the bridge had been repaved solving this problem. I don't believe I would've had a problem getting into the campground with my low riding trailer. There were a lot of nice sites in White Oak. Now for the only things I can find troubling are not having site specific reservations. When you arrive you get your tags, and just pick whatever site is open in the area you reserved. When I arrived I had a choice of two sites, with one being nearly impossible to get into with my less then 30 foot trailer, if I would've been stuck with the tight site I would've had to leave, as it would've caused damage to my trailer from nearby trees. We were happy when a nicer site opened up on our second night there. We were also charged $3 +tax per dog per night so that was an additional $25.50 I wasn't expecting to have to pay when we arrived, yet no pet bags, or other things were provided for my dogs. Seems like a ridiculous charge. Just an FYI our Verizon service didn't work in the park, though I saw folks at the swimming area chatting on cells, not sure what service they had.
Date of Stay: July, 2007
This state park is real nice overall and in a great area of Ohio. There is a lot of easy walks, some a little tougher with stairs, to check out water falls (which were pretty dried up due to lack of rain) caves, etc. The swimming pool was nice too. We would have liked sites with a little more room, but the sites were adequate, the real downfall of this park is the bathrooms, I'm not sure what the designer of these bathroom/showers could not have been thinking (they looked relatively new), there was no real area for privacy while changing clothes, you had to undress in an area shared by all three showers, which was separated by a shower curtain to the entry area of the bathroom. The floor of the shower was open at the bottom so you would get splashed by anyone showering next to you which we didn't care for.

Adventure Travel—The Path of Dreams
Adventure travel with O.A.T. is a journey beyond the familiar, one that takes you into the very heart of a destination—to meet people where they work and live. O.A.T. invites you to explore the meandering routes, the intriguing detours, the slower paths where you can breathe deeply, absorb new sensations, encounter authentic cultures, and make new connections. What you'll discover is not simply a destination, but a joyful awareness of the moment that reminds you, "This is not just an ordinary trip—it's a true adventure." We've been creating those moments for more than 31 years. Here's how …
Discover the wonder of the road less traveled
The Taj Mahal. Machu Picchu. The Great Wall of China. After 31 years of helping travelers discover wonders like these, we certainly understand why these are "musts" on your itineraries—they are marvels that every traveler will thrill to behold. While you can journey with O.A.T. to many of the world's top travel destinations, we also take you to many lesser-known locales—unique and wonder-filled destinations where few Americans go. But we also know that sometimes, the most extraordinary travel experiences occur in the most ordinary places—the unassuming villages, family homes, schools, churches, and farms that comprise the heart of a nation. O.A.T. can transport you off the tourist path over land, and by sea. Once you arrive, we'll invite you to participate in local life. Perhaps you'll find yourself reciting a lesson in a local elementary school, admiring the handiwork at a women's weaving cooperative, or lending a hand during the local rice harvest. Through unique activities that are built into your trip, you'll enjoy personal connections that might only take a moment to form, but can last a lifetime in your memories.
Small groups provide the most personal and rewarding experience
When you travel with O.A.T., you'll travel in a small group of 10-16 travelers, guaranteed, on our Land Adventures, and between 16-25 travelers, guaranteed, on our Small Ship Adventures. Slipping into the flow of local life without disrupting it, you'll get a more authentic view. And as you explore natural habitats, you'll tread softly, getting as close as possible to native wildlife. Your Trip Leader will be able to focus on your needs and give you the personal attention you deserve. Plus, you'll revel in a level of spontaneity and camaraderie that just isn't possible in big groups.
Meet local people where they live, work and play
Most travelers rarely get to know local people beyond the hotel staff or local merchants. But with O.A.T., you'll meet people from all walks of life, visiting them where they work, where they worship, where they learn, and where they live—frequently right in their own homes. Sing a song with Chinese primary school children. Enjoy a private cooking lesson with a Thai chef. Take part in a Peruvian curandero ceremony with a traditional Quechua healer. Thanks to the individual relationships O.A.T. has developed over the years with so many local families, you will be welcomed as an honored guest, enjoying a rare opportunity for real cultural exchange.
Resident Trip Leaders share their world
Our staff in Boston and in our 35 regional offices around the world work hard behind the scenes to provide a standout experience for you. But we know that the real standouts of any O.A.T. experience are our dedicated O.A.T. Trip Leaders, who will open the doors to new cultures for you. These exceptional men and women are all English-speaking residents of the countries you will visit, because we feel strongly that no one can show you the true soul of a place better than an insider. Your Trip Leader's wonderful command of local history, culture, and nature will enrich your experience, and you can also depend on their resourcefulness and skills in group dynamics. But what you will love about them is their sense of caring, their good humor, and the way their passion for their homeland enhances your own appreciation for it.
Travel safe, confident, and carefree
We like to think of our trips as adventures of the mind, body, and spirit. So while you should be in reasonable health to fully enjoy your trip, you needn't be an athlete or rugged outdoorsperson. What can you expect with O.A.T.? Accommodations that are pleasant and comfortable. Experiences that are unusual and safe. Destinations that are exotic and welcoming. And choices for everything you do. We've inspected and tested everything, so all you have to do is relax, explore, and enjoy the time of your life.
Giving back to the world we travel: You help us make a difference
Our special brand of travel would not be possible without the cooperation and good will of the communities we visit, and to that end, O.A.T. is dedicated to giving something back to the world we all share. So a portion of the profits of every O.A.T. trip is donated to our nonprofit Grand Circle Foundation, which supports cultural, community and educational causes in the places you visit. Learn more about Grand Circle Foundation.
Are you fit for an O.A.T. adventure?
We work closely with our local Trip Leaders and regional associates to identify the aspects of our adventures that you should be aware of when deciding whether or not to join us, from physical requirements to cultural factors. All adventures are not appropriate for travelers using wheelchairs or other mobility aids. As a general guideline, you should be able to walk 3 miles unassisted over the course of each day, exploring on foot and standing for up to a half hour at a time. You must also be comfortable participating in, on average, 3-5 hours of daily physical activities. We often travel over some rugged paths, as well as bumpy, unpaved, dusty roads, both by bus and on foot. You'll find more details in the "Is this adventure right for you?" section for each adventure.

Residents wait for change after noise ordinance passes
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. - People in one Johnson City neighborhood are hoping that change is on the way after the city passed a new noise ordinance.
Bill Bennedetto has lived in his Tanglewood neighborhood home for more than 22 years; but almost four years ago some new neighbors moved in behind him, and peace and quiet have been hard to come by every since. "Shortly thereafter, the noise started. We called them and it didn't really do a lot of good," said Bennedetto.
The noise was coming from the Electric Cowboy, a nearby nightclub. "We have tried, tried and could not do a thing. [The owner] has made empty promises to us that never were fulfilled," said Bennedetto.
After multiple meetings with the city, Bennedetto tells News 5 that he and neighbors finally got some traction. On Thursday, the Johnson City Commission passed a new noise ordinance.
The ordinance addresses C-level ambient noise, which is a low thumping sound.
Johnson City Police have to use special equipment to measure the sound, but we're told that it isn't quite ready for use. "The equipment has to be calibrated to make sure we are measuring those decibel levels properly. Many times you have to send the noise meter back or the calibrator that goes with the noise meter back to the manufacturer to have it check to make sure it is working properly," said Major Karl Turner.
We found out that process could take weeks.
Neighbors tell us that they are hopeful that the noise will stop, but they've yet to see any difference since the ordinance took effect. "In the evening if I choose to leave my bedroom windows open, I can clearly hear the bass of the 'thump, thump, thump' sound," said Ronald Zimmern, a Tanglewood resident.
One neighbor told News 5 that the noise even caused one family to put their home up for sale.
Violators of the ordinance will be given a $50 citation.
News 5 reached out to the Electric Cowboy about the situation and they have yet to return our phone calls.

Independent Representative required for Online Certification Specialize in Logistics & Supply Chain Management
This project received 1 bids from talented freelancers with an average bid price of $5555 USD.Get free quotes for a project like this
Project Budget$5000 - $10000 USD
Total Bids1
Project Description
SIPMM is the educational arm of Singapore Institute of Purchasing & Materials Management with 44 years of history in professional development. We are looking for Independent Representative (IR) in overseas for our Online Certification, which can be found in the press [url removed, login to view]
The IR is an independent representative who is appointed to promote and facilitate SIPMM Online Certification [url removed, login to view] The IR could be an individual or an organisation, and who can facilitate prospects to study online courses at SIPMM and in the process achieve certification at SIPMM.
The IR should be familiar with the various online courses that are organized into four specialized categories – Purchasing, Warehouse, Logistics, and Supply Chain. The successful completion of an online course will lead to a Certificate of Competency. When a learner gains 4 competency certificates in specified category and meet some criteria, they can attain a Chartered Diploma awarded by World Certification Institute.
The IR will be assigned a personal Priority Code (Pcode). This code enables an online student to pay a reduced course fee up to 10% deduction from the Course List Price. This is a personal code for the IR to facilitate a student's enrolment to the online courses. This code should not be published in a public domain as otherwise this will undermine the online course system. A breach of this requirement will result in the disqualification of the IR.
There are 3 types of payments to an IR:
(a) Facilitation Fee
(b) Bonus Fee
(c) Sponsor Fee (only to an IR-Sponsor)
The Facilitation Fee is 15% of the payment received from a student who enrolled in the
online course using the IR's Priority Code.
The Bonus Fee is 10% of Net Fee (NF), which is the amount received after deducting the Facilitation Fee. The Bonus Fee is payable when NF hits every additional USD8K.
The Sponsor Fee is 5% of NF (Net Fee), and is only payable to the IR-Sponsor, not to the IR. The requirement for an IR to become an IR-Sponsor is when an IR has enrolled at least 10 learners. The IR-Sponsor can then enlist any individual or organisation to become a new IR, who will then have a new Priority Code. This separate code is tagged to the IR-Sponsor so that the IR-Sponsor can receive the Sponsor Fee.
Payment is processed electronically at the end of the month, and disbursement will be made within 2 weeks of the following month by SIPMM directly. This is fully COMMISSION based.
If you have understood all the above and interested in it, you can apply by filling up the application form (attached) and send back to me with your answers to the following questions.
1. What is your occupation?
2. Are you working with an organization or institute?
3. What is your target sales for a month on this role?
4. What is your process and strategy to reach your target sales on this role?
Best Regards.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. Florida State pitcher Mike Compton will undergo Tommy John surgery to repair a damaged ligament in his right elbow and miss the 2013 season. News of Comptons surgery comes two weeks before the Seminoles open the 2013 campaign on February 15 with a three-game series against the University of Rhode Island. The Missouri native posted a 12-2 record with a 2.87 ERA in 18 starts during his first season at Florida State in 2012. Compton ended the season tied for the second most wins in the nation and led all freshmen in the category. He was the first 10-game winner in the ACC and finished the season as the only player to reach double-digit victories in the league. He ended his freshman season with 64 strikeouts in 91.0 innings of work while holding opponents to a .260 batting average. Compton allowed two earned runs or less in 16 of his 18 starts, while gave up no runs three times. It was disappointing for all of us to hear the news regarding Mike Compton, head coach Mike Martin said. He will definitely be missed but we also see this as an opportunity for someone else to step in and fill the No. 2 spot in the rotation.

Jeff Demps Tells the Patriots He Only Wants to Play for Them Part Time and Is Surprised They're Not Returning His Calls
Herald – Patriots running back Jeff Demps informed Bill Belichick last month of his plans to be a two-sport athlete, but a recent radio interview made it sound like the Olympic silver medalist might be leaning more heavily in one direction than the other. Demps told Sports Talk Florida that he is serious about his commitment to the track season, which is getting under way… Demps is still under contract with the Patriots for two more seasons, but if he isn't fully invested in football, Belichick has a decision to make in one way or another. Demps was asked how he'd lobby to remain with the Pats. "Listen coach, I want to do both, but in order for me to get where I want to be on the track and field side, it will take a full year of preparation," Demps said. "And after the (track) season, if you guys are willing to let me come back, probably midseason, and work out, and train and get ready for the season.
…And – Daniel Rose, who is Demps' agent, just told me the Patriots haven't returned any of his messages for three weeks… Rose wants to know if the Pats are OK with Demps' decision, or if they're going to trade or release the 2012 Olympic silver medalist. Until then, Demps' football status remains uncertain. "He wants to do both, but the team hasn't even discussed anything with him," Rose said.
Classic Belichick. I honestly can't decide which part of this story I find funniest. Is it Demps, thinking he can dictate the terms of his employment to Bill frigging Belichick? Is it his agent, leaving all these messages and honestly thinking he's going to hear back? Or is it Belichick, not giving either one of them the time of day? I think I'm going to go with Number 3. Because as hilarious as Belichick can be, he's at his funniest when he's being Passive-Aggressive Bill. You can just picture him in his office, seeing the caller ID, letting it go to voicemail, then calling his son and Ernie Adams in to listen to in on speaker: "Yeah, hi, Coach. It's Daniel Rose again. Listen, I was just wondering if you got my other messages? Jeff really wants to run track again, so we're hoping he can just kind of skip minicamps, training camp, practices and the first half of the season, then show up and play the second half. And I just wanted to get your thoughts…" Then they sit around and piss themselves laughing. Because, sure, that's how the NFL works. Just show up whenever it suits you. Especially when you're a 175 lb sprinter who's never played a down in the NFL. Just treat it like the National Guard Reserves. One weekend a month and two weeks a year and you're good. After all, there's nothing a football lifer like The Hooded One loves more than working around the schedule of some part-timer so he can be free to go run in circles for medals and sneaker contracts. Besides, as long as Demps keeps it to under 30 hours a week they don't have to give him health insurance so it's win/win. Look, I was as fascinated as anyone by the idea of this kid returning kicks before he got hurt in preseason last year. But like the old saying goes, if the phone don't ring, that'll be us. Or as the newer saying goes, what part of "New England signs kick returner Leon Washington" didn't Demps and his agent understand? @JerryThornton1

Source: The Jamaica Observer
Seventh-day Adventist volunteers in Jamaica were among a group of 10,000 Christian volunteers mobilized to beautify their capital city and other sections of the island in preparation for the ICC Cricket World Cup, which starts next month. Their efforts, however,were greeted by some with criticism and a "tongue-lashing" according to the Jamaica Observer. But the volunteer's leader responded with love and forgiveness.
"I am ashamed of the church," a critic said. "To be cleaning up today when for years and for decades this country is filthy and dirty. Where were they? I call them hypocrites. I call them Pharisees. When poor people can't get medication in the hospitals, when there are not enough beds, when the roads are not fixed, the youth can get no employment and over $8 billion is being used to hold a World Cup? Something is wrong. We must speak out as Christians, no matter who is involved," critics said. "Where is the voice of the people of God when scarce resources are being thrown at World Cup Cricket?
The volunteers, who came from about 40 different church organizations and denominations, cleaned up several areas of Kingston, Jamaica, in preparation for the event not only to make the country presentable to visitors, but to use the event as an opportunity to minister the gospel in the hope of winning souls for Christ.
"God has caused Cricket World Cup to come to Jamaica," said volunteer organizer Rev Errol Rattray, "We can either let the opportunity pass or we can seize the moment. The moment has arrived for the church. The moment has also arrived for evangelism."

Hello. I need few logos. Deadline is by the end of the month so no rush.
In the logo, which has to be transparent, have the text "Trampmania I" in the style of Wrestlemania 28 logo, sorry I couldn't find a good link to it but I am sure you can find it googling, and instead of the WWE logo in the top left corner, have one of the logo's Narcis_speed6 made for me, here: link. I prefer to use the green one.
Then, four other logos. First, "Tony Cole" in an electrifying/extreme font. I'd like it being green. The second, have "Mr. Judgement" in some kind of, er, "tombstone" or scary font in black or white or both. Then the third "Nitro Montana", in a fast/car font, in red or blue. And the fourth one, "Max Titan", some though/iron font in gold/silver. And the last one, "Shiro Yambuki" in a Japanese font in red, white or orange.
And the last one, have "Kirottu koulu" (yes, it's Finnish) in a scary font, the color's not important. Thank you

Thank you very much, but two things if you could do on them;
Make the Tony Cole one without a background. And with the Nitro Montana one, correct the spelling mistakes from "Nirto" to "Nitro", and "Montanna" to "Montana". Thank you

Before last season, the two-time reigning conference champion Terrapins wrestling team knew it would host the 2012-13 ACC Championships at Comcast Center, and the Terps appeared primed to end the season celebrating in their home venue.
But 285-pound Spencer Myers, who earned All-American status as a freshman, tore his LCL in the preseason, forcing him to miss team competition. With the heavyweight gone, the Terps fell from their No. 15 preseason ranking out of the top 25 and finished third in the ACC tournament.
This season, the Terps aim to avenge those missteps and regain the conference crown.
"Finished third in our conference in our home gym — that's not what we wanted to do," coach Kerry McCoy said. "We've got to go out there, and every game we have an opportunity to be better and make our performance better than it was the last time out."
The No. 25 Terps will look for a healthy Myers to anchor them. The Selinsgrove, Pa., native won two straight heavyweight ACC titles before last season.
Christian Boley, 197 pounds, and 184-pound Jimmy Sheptock will look to carry the Terps in the next two highest weight classes. With Myers, Boley and Sheptock all healthy, the Terps cruised to wins over Johns Hopkins, Kutztown and Alderson-Broaddus in the Terrapin Duals to open the season Sunday.
"That's kind of the perfect storm," McCoy said. "We recruited these guys four or five years ago. We expected that they'd all come together and put a good team together and be able to make some noise. We're excited that they're going to come out. … Having guys like that that are battle-tested and know what it takes is really important."
The Terps will also have high scorers in the lower divisions. Geoffrey Alexander, 133 pounds, will serve as a captain along with Sheptock and Boley, and hopes to build on his stellar showings in the ACC tournament in each of the past two seasons. He finished second his freshman year and fifth his sophomore year.
Two newcomers also will help the Terps in their quest to respond to a disappointing season. Tyler Goodwin, 125 pounds, scored two victories by pin at Sunday's meet, and 141-pound Shyheim Brown defeated Johns Hopkins' Duncan Crystal by technical fall Sunday in his first college team match before winning his next two matches.
"He does a lot of the right things," Boley said. "He stays active. He puts in extra work."
Boley and Sheptock are coming off their first seasons in which the Terps didn't capture an ACC title, so the duo is ensuring that younger wrestlers understand the expectations. Sheptock even occasionally keeps underclassmen after practice to run if they make mistakes.
"I don't want them to get in trouble," Sheptock said. "I want to show them how it's done before Coach has to."
When the Terps travel from College Park to Blacksburg, Va., on March 8 for the conference tournament, they won't have the advantage of wrestling on their home court, but they fully intend to come back down Route 1 with the championship hardware in hand with last season's sour ending behind them.
"We like to focus on where we're going — not where we've been," Boley said. "It was a disappointment. We use it as motivation. But we have a better team this year. We're focused — it's our last year in the ACC. There's a lot of different variables and factors that are pushing us to get this ring."

After years of use in other countries around the world, chip-enabled credit cards are coming to the USA. Credit cards with only magnetic strips are being phased out ahead of an October 1, 2015 deadline.
Systemd is now used by default in most Linux distributions, from Fedora and Red Hat to Ubuntu, Debian, openSUSE, and Arch. The systemctl command allows you to get information about systemd's status and control running services.
Roku's line of streaming boxes are still the most popular, beating out Google's Chromecast and the Apple TV. Roku recently refreshed their hardware, but there are still four different options to choose from — not the single option you get with competing devices.
You can capture video (or screenshots) from any device with an HDMI cable or composite video outputs with a basic device. You could live-stream gameplay on Twitch TV with such a device, too.
Mac OS X has built-in support for connecting to most common types of VPNs. If you want to ensure your Mac automatically reconnected to your VPN or connect to an OpenVPN VPN, you'll need a third-party app.
Windows doesn't have an integrated tool like Preview for Mac OS X — it doesn't even come with a PDF printer. Here's how to split, merge, reorder, sign, and mark-up PDF files with the least obnoxious software possible.
VPN setup can be complex, especially for less experienced users. It may involve installing various certificate files as well as configuring server settings. Create a configuration profile and this will be as easy as downloading and tapping a file.
Apple's Time Machine typically backs up to an external drive or wirelessly to a Time Capsule. But, if you have a spare Mac, you can turn it into a Time Machine server. All your other Macs can back up to it over the network, just as if it were a Time Capsule.
Chrome isn't the minimal web browser it once was. Originally named Chrome because it was designed to get out of your way, Chrome is no longer just a minimal browser — it's an entire application platform.
iPhones and iPads don't have file systems you can access. Instead, each app has its own "library" of files. iTunes File Sharing allows you to copy files to and from these per-app libraries.
Many modern smart TVs have support for the Chromecast-like DIAL protocol built in. You can cast videos to your TV from YouTube and Netflix — on your phone or computer — without getting a Chromecast.
Microsoft does offer a web-based version of Skype, so you can chat with your friends on your Chromebook. There's no official voice or video support yet, but there are ways around that.
Modern iPhones and iPads have excellent VPN support. The L2TP/IPSec and Cisco IPSec protocols are integrated. You can connect to OpenVPN networks and other types of virtual private networks with third-party apps.
How fast is your Internet connection? Sure, your Internet service provider has given you some numbers, and your cellular provider probably says you get blazing fast 4G LTE. But how fast is it, actually?
Need to sign a document and email it? Don't print, sign, and then scan it back in again. Skip the entire process and apply your signature electronically. It saves time and you don't need a printer or scanner.
Many boxes you plug into your TV, including the Roku, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and PlayStation 3 offer DLNA ("Digital Living Network Alliance") streaming support. They can stream video files and music over the network from your PC — as long as you set up a DLNA server first.
There are several reasons why you might end up with a protected partition you can't delete on a drive. For example, Macs create 200 MB partitions at the start of an external drive when you set up Time Machine on it.
So you've got a nice big widescreen TV and an amazing home theater setup. Your speakers offer excellent sound — there's just one problem. You want to use it while people are sleeping or otherwise busy. That means turning to headphones.
You generally don't need to install hardware drivers on Linux. It'll automatically detect the hardware in your computer and set it up for you — that's the goal. But printers can be a different story.
YouTube has an integrated remote-control feature. Pair the YouTube app on your phone or the website on your computer with YouTube on any streaming box, smart TV, or game console for easy, Chromecast-style browsing and playback controls.
Google's Chromecast makes it easy to browse for videos and watch them on your TV, but what if you want to quickly pause playback without reaching for your smartphone or computer? You can now do this right from your TV's built-in remote.
Google's Chromecast allows you to launch videos and control them from your phone, cast your entire screen to your TV, and generally use a smartphone instead of a remote. You can do a lot of this with your Roku, too.
Not every Roku channel appears in the channel store. There are quite a few hidden "private channels" you have to go out of your way to find.
Roku devices recently gained a "screen mirroring" feature. With a few clicks or taps, you can mirror a Windows 8.1 or Android screen to your Roku. It works a bit like Apple's AirPlay or Google's Chromecast screen-mirroring.
Your Roku can do more than just stream from the web. Use it to watch video files you've downloaded or ripped yourself, or even play your personal music collection. You can do this with a USB drive or over the local network.

HuffingtonPost Blogger Feed for Peter Behrens Good old fashioned elbow grease. Exploring the Lonely Exurbs of America's Midwest tag:www.huffingtonpost.com,2012:/theblog//3.1971156 2012-10-16T17:46:56-04:00 2012-12-16T05:12:02-05:00 Peter Behrens http://www.huffingtonpost.com/peter-behrens/ That's why the geography of Colorado Springs, where I'm spending a few weeks, hit me so hard. This is a city on the edge of the Great Plains, set hard up against the front range of the Rocky Mountains. There has been exuberant growth over the last 20 years: the population of the metropolitan area was over 600,000 in the 2010 census, and El Paso County, where "The Springs" is located, recently passed Denver County as the most populous in the state. In 2006 Colorado Springs was ranked No. 1 as "Best Big City" in Money magazine's "Best Places to Live." With large military installations (Fort Carson; the U.S. Air Force Academy; the Cheyenne Mountain NORAD Command Center) Colorado Springs is considered a "conservative" stronghold in a swing state. "Conservative," I think, is not a meaningful description: it's that side of U.S. opinion that is decidedly, radically, reactionary. The geography of the metropolitan area mirrors a political and cultural divide. The original, older sections of city are pleasantly midwestern, with wide, tree-lined residential streets and wooden houses in a delicious mixture of American styles, from massively New England colonial to simple woodframe bungalows that might have belonged in any Colorado mining town, c. 1890. Downtown is surprisingly small, with some office buildings & hotels, and wide -- often empty -- midwestern-style streets. But the real Colorado Springs is located in the sprawl of suburbs -- really exurbs, since they are only precariously connected to the city -- to the north and east of the old core. And the exurban neighbourhods of El Paso County seem, to this observer, environments designed for alienation and loneliness: street after street of developer-built houses fronted by enormous, power-operated garage doors, which display an defensive attitude to the street, and to the larger world. Any notion of a neighbourhood being in some sense a "commons" is bitterly denied by the developer-created geography, and the paranoid style of domestic architecture. Fear and loneliness seem written on the landscape by the silent streets. Citizens of the exurbs speak fearfully of 'downtown' and rarely go there: this must be why downtown is so disturbingly somnolent. The minimal amount of urban activity it does display is apparently startling and threatening to exurban citizens, who stay away in droves. Is the geography of the exurban areas -- the isolation and fear that sprawl reinforces among homeowners -- part of the reason why the fundamentalist and evangelical mega-churches are so popular and powerful? They are really the only "community" available. It is not really an urban life here, but something quite different. Last week the Colorado Springs' Gazette ran an Associated Press story that was not set in Colorado Springs, but does say something about the way we live now: the strange, febrile cultural divide that runs through the nation, and seems to be growing wider every year, and which our wrong-headed, developer-driven urban geography is just making wider and deeper. The head was "Congressman: Evolution is a lie from 'pit of hell'" and the story reported videotaped remarks made by Georgia Rep. Paul Broun, a medical doctor, running for re-election in November -- unopposed by Democrats."God's word is true," the story quotes Broun. "I've come to understand that. All that stuff I was taught about evolution and embryology and the Big Bang theory, all that is lies straight from the pit of hell...it's lies to try to keep me and all the folks who are taught that from understanding that they need a saviour." Dr. Broun said that he also believes the world is about 9,000 years old and was created in six days. End of story. It all makes The Netherlands seem mighty urbane, and civilized, though fear and know-nothingism have their place in European life and politics, too.]]> Hey America: You Don't Look So Great from Up Here tag:www.huffingtonpost.com,2012:/theblog//3.1270441 2012-02-13T14:36:09-05:00 2012-04-14T05:12:01-04:00 Peter Behrens http://www.huffingtonpost.com/peter-behrens/ On the other hand, golf courses, blue skies, and cheerful degrees fahrenheit aside, you are looking kind of... surly these days. Sure, milk is $.50 cheaper a gallon on your side of the line, but we do have universal health care. We may need to stand in line for it, but we have always been a polite bunch and never minded queueing, as long as the line's fair. You used to be, but you don't seem so into fairness anymore, America. We read about your plethora of fat cats, those masters of the universe, but mostly, in your upstate, northern border towns, we see poor folk and large, sad children returned from desert wars. Granted our perspective is skewed. The two crosscuts of the USA we're most familiar with are your sunbelt and your northern tier from the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State to Aroostook County, Maine. Three thousand miles of farms and sawmill towns that used to seem sort of Canadian, except now they don't. Sawmills are shut, farmers are extinct, and much of your Great North Woods seems a hotbed of little but methamphetamine production and military recruitment. That's how it looks to us, anyway, from just next door. Along what used to be our undefended border you've aggressively "thickened" your frontier and you suddenly demand passports from us. Those lines are tedious, those officers aggressive. We don't much want to cross anymore, and if it weren't for the sunshine and the fact our dollar goes a long way these days, maybe we wouldn't. America, you once elected a brilliant, shiny young president who seemed bold, but isn't, while we're stuck with a dour prime minister who looks and sounds like, well, a Canadian prime minister. Nonetheless, we get the feeling that Canada is moving in the right direction. Partly this is dumb luck: we're a resource economy, producing raw materials that China needs. Our universities are a bargain, and have you tried the brand-new Vancouver subway? It spooks us to see that you are not moving, America. You're dysfunctioning. Living alongside you these days and listening to the contenders in your Republican primaries is like overhearing a crazy family from the Maine backwoods in a loud, weird squabble at the Bangor Mall: everyone threatening, gesticulating, talking trash. The louder these men boast of keeping your military mighty enough to lick all comers, the weaker you seem, America, and so terribly out of touch with the rest of the world. Sometimes -- and we hate to have to say this, we honestly do -- you sound pathetic. Or you would, if you weren't also so magnificently, expensively, and ludicrously well-armed. Stop obsessing about taxes, you can't pay for two wars without them. Anyway, taxes are not your real problem, you pay fewer of them than just about everyone except the Greeks. Be more mindful of your friends. If this isn't your century, well, so what, they can't all be. Get it together, America. Take better care of yourselves. Mind your health. Get moving again.]]> We Canadians Aren't Always Nice tag:www.huffingtonpost.com,2012:/theblog//3.1236465 2012-01-27T11:58:51-05:00 2012-03-28T05:12:02-04:00 Peter Behrens http://www.huffingtonpost.com/peter-behrens/ By the way, what do you say to six drunk Canadian defencemen to persuade them to quietly exit the hotel's hot tub? Try, "Can you get out of the hot tub now, please?" Works every time. Do not forget the "please." Oh, we are nice. We weren't always. "Canadian gangsters" may seem an oxymoron, but in the days of your prohibition, squads of us made serious moola and some gunplay while pouring our excellent rye whiskey over the border into backwoods Vermont then down the spout of U.S. Route 7, to be shaken or stirred in the highball glasses of Gatsbyesque Manhattan. In fact, Fitzgerald hinted that Jay Gatsby himself was likely one of our cross-border affiliates. New York City has always been a mecca for us. Back in 1892 the Times was waspishly editorializing (p4, column 4, June 6, 1892) on the dastardly threat posed by emigrating French Canadians ("It is next to impossible to penetrate this mass of protected and secluded humanity with modern ideas or to induce them to interest themselves in democratic institutions and methods of government.") And Joseph Mitchell's 1949 New Yorker piece, "The Mohawks in High Steel" noticed the Caughnawaga Mohawks -- their reservation is across the river from Montreal -- colonizing the North Gowanus neighbourhood, in Brooklyn, where saloons stocked Canadian cigarettes and Molson ale, and a local pastor was struggling to learn the Iroquois language. These days, your rulers in the White House and Congress wrestle with the evils of importing another nasty Canadian liquid -- oil squeezed from the Alberta tar sands -- through another, possibly violent, delivery system. Instead of competitive fedora'd gunsels from the Plateau Mont-Royal hustling truckloads of illicit booze through the New England night, and tommy-gunning each other on the approaches to Rutland, this time it's TransCanada's Keystone project threatening spillage and spoilage of precious ecozones in Nebraska on the course of its long run from Alberta ("Where?") to the Gulf Coast. Well, we Canadians do recognize a business opportunity, and your addiction to high old times -- always cut with pure grains of zealous Puritan rectitude -- usually allows us to deliver our goods, or ourselves, and at a premium, once the hot air cools. You may not want us, but given your insatiable appetites and addictions, America, you're probably going to need us.]]> Remembering the Silent Generation tag:www.huffingtonpost.com,2011:/theblog//3.1086128 2011-11-10T10:47:49-05:00 2014-01-23T18:58:21-05:00 Peter Behrens http://www.huffingtonpost.com/peter-behrens/ My uncle John J.K. O'Brien, was one of the names on the "1939-45" slab, along with dozens of other Westmount "boys." They were always referred to as "boys," "the boys," because that was how my mother and aunts and other adults who had grown up in the neighbourhood remembered them: boys playing hockey on the rink in Murray Park; boys hanging out at Macy's Drugstore after school; boys going "overseas;" boys not coming home. So we wore the blood-red plastic poppies pinned to our lapels in November and we "remembered" what I actually did not, could not, remember, since I was born 10 years after the end of WWII. Now, when I come back to Canada on this endless book tour, I am glad to see the poppies are still worn. Last week when I returned home to Maine for a few days I brought a poppy for my five-year-old to wear; and one for his Westmount-born kindergarden teacher at the Waldorf/hippy school in Blue Hill, Maine; and one for me. I know the symbol and the day has had a different resonance in Canada, since Afghanistan. We must hate the wars, but part of hating them surely means refusing to forget them. Last night in Vancouver, as guest of a readers' club, I read a piece from my new novel The O'Briens. The bit I read was a "letter," written by a young Canadian infantry officer, in the regiment 22ième, who has just been through his first experience of battle (in Sicily, in 1943). He writes to his young wife, back in Montreal. He does not have the language to desribe what he is feeling so his letter is a raw and incoherent but I hope it has some authenticity. When I composed the fictional "letter" I tried to infuse it with everything unspoken by my family about their experience of the wars. My uncles were silent Canadian officers and gentlemen of the pre-psychologial generation. They were not comfortable "sharing" their "feelings." They were not Oprah Winfrey people (and more power to them!). I find much to admire in their attitude but there was also a price to pay for all that silence about the disorienting experience of modern war. As they grew old, and faced their deaths, most of what had happened in the decades since their war seemed to recede, fade, lose shape and colour -- and the hard kernels of dastardly memory grounded in those intense weeks and months in Europe, 1943, 1944, 1945, was all that remained, and were spilled out to me, the inquisitive writer/nephew, not in rehearsed anecdotage but in pellucid shards of raw memory; bits of memory like chunks of hot shrapnel, disconnected to any moral or meaning, scorching and dangerous. ]]>

Ice, ice, baby!
At this morning's ERC New Year's Day 5-miler, the spoils went to those who remembered to bring their "snow tires."
I happened to have recently picked up a pair of StabilIcer Lite Ice Cleats (below) at the Erie Sports Store for $21 and they served me very well for those 5 slippery miles. Dan wore his Yaktrax and said they didn't do him much good on the ice. Seems Yaks are better for snow and StabilIcers for ice? Hmmm….sounds like a good Friday question, eh?
Despite the icy conditions, nearly 400 people finished the race and kicked off their new year the right way! I can't imagine a better way to start my year than a 5-mile run with hundreds of friends.
Top finishers were a husband-and-wife team who, if I'm not mistaken, are professional runners (Christie is the sister of Erie runner, Jenny Turak):
* 1st male – Kenny Foster, 26, with a 25:21 (5:04 miles!)
* 1st female – Christie Foster, 24, with a 30:04 (6:01 pace)
* 1st female master – Amy Bowen,44, with a 37:22 (7:28 pace)
* 1st male master – Eric Walsh,44, with a 29:04 (5:49)
See complete New Year's Day results here.
Also, check out this super cute video that runner Katie Mihalak's husband, Kirk, made:
katie news years race vimeo from katie mihalak on Vimeo.
BTW — Katie wrote a great blog post about her New Year's Day run here (reminds me of my first days as a newbie walker/runner).
Here are 100 photos from the GoErie Street View photographer, Mike Conway.
And here are a few (mostly lousy) photos I took. Hey, I was RACING will I took these, you know! 😉

Snow Wheeling With Bob & His Mog
Bear with me while I get philosophical for a moment.
As I hit the highway today at 0710, temperature 35 degrees, drizzling --- I really questioned the sanity of this particular excursion.
North Georgia roads are dark and treacherous on a good morning; it was plain scary this morning.
As I got higher in elevation the temperatures dropped and finally reached an even 32. There was ice on the roadway and the drizzle continued. Most of you know how I feel about ice on the roadway...
But I kept going anyhow; as the sun rose (I didn't actually see the sun but it got lighter out...) I became more optimistic.
I smelled adventure and it made me hungry.
None of the gang met us at the Waffle House. I didn't blame them; it was miserable out and there wasn't much hope of it clearing. But I knew that Bob was heading down and I wasn't going to miss out on the opportunity to meet him and see a few new trails.
Then it stopped raining. And we were treated to what is best in life.
Words fall short of the feeling that you get when you're out in nature with new friends seeing new things. The feeling of the snow beneath your boots, the feel of the tires spinning and finding purchase on a bit of buried gravel, the feel of the wind, of the sun, of the mountain ---- all that and the intangible bond of people with each other and with our beloved machines.
I wouldn't have missed it for anything.
And the bar-b-que at Rib Country was great, btw. :tea:
sweet pics man, and well put. lets see some more.
Sweet. That looks like fun.
that benz is HOT! :) Jeep is nice too
Here's a perspective shot from the hiking shop on the Appalachian Trail:
Them there are two sweet
x's whatever! That Unimog is damn cool! :cool: Your Jeep looks good too. :D
I ran a Unimog digger derrick for a couple of years. They are freaking amazing but you can get them stuck, I know that one first hand. :D

We take on four off-topic topics... today featuring Ron Jaworski's love for a certain QB, the NFL's new bag policy and what the heck is Mike Tyson doing?
Transcript - Not for consumer use. Robot overlords only. Will not be accurate.
-- And now word -- and -- swollen already roller board or the four. Fun cleaning. Mean. It's. On its rate W. The Moffett recycle them only that he's at it. Yet that's exactly it -- recycle. It's called breaking down to its value form over couple times and just a different. To be particularly -- -- -- and now. But we're a knife. You the cubic.

Young people love the state the boxes for your daughter she can build for the moment we put that box on the ground she immediately go out the top of the box which she was like oh -- order when you -- Question number one ESPN's Ron Jaworski said yesterday quote. I believe -- it can be arguably the best quarterback in the history. Of the NFL I truly believe Colin -- can be one of the greatest quarterbacks ever. It's very similar to that you know.

I don't I don't I don't and I know a lot of people do they love Tyson postal funnies Iraqis raid in the room. Hang over and all that and and now really do want to rape and Obama up the kind of thing that I still find it a little hard to get over there. I don't need to hate him I don't think the thing that he should be in jail. Tough it's tough for me to get over that stuff Michael -- kind of the same way and he's even gone out and and really apologized and made significantly changes. And it's like it's not that I hate Michael Vick I don't I don't spend all of my time thinking about -- I find it hard to like completely forget about everything that's in his past. NASA's Michael Vick -- and and you don't think about that now. Look at Tyson is that's a different level. That's the things that he's not as apparently Donner are crazy right. And talking -- you're talking about a professional boxer hitting a woman I mean the things that are that are off the charts horrible. And yet that it's funny though just watch Mike I mean it's like he is it is a really. Strange in late night TV you know -- went out on fox got his one Broadway yeah. The whole thing really is straight right phone caller still hanging on here but it wants to talk about David Ortiz his comments and -- teenage years.
