wikiHow to Stop Your Child's Computer Addiction
Three Parts:LimitationsAwarenessPossible ConsequencesCommunity Q&A
While the computer is an incredibly useful tool and can help you get a lot done, wasting time on it seems to be all too easy. Lots of kids have problems with spending too much time on the computer, to the dismay of some parents. Computer addiction, especially to such features like games or instant messaging, has been described as being just as powerful as a drug addiction, and while your child may not be to that point, their excessive computer usage could lead to more serious problems down the road. Note that the steps involving software (such as keyloggers or web history checking) can very easily be circumvented.
Part 1
1Talk with your child about his/her excessive computer usage. Find out if there are any specific reasons that he/she spends so much time on the computer – sometimes the computer functions as an escape from reality. If your child is facing problems that are causing a desire to "escape", try to address those.
2Move the computer to an open area if it's not already in one – sometimes taking it out of the child's bedroom is sufficient to reduce their computer usage, and it makes it easier to monitor their usage.
- (However, sometimes bedrooms may just be temporary whilst rooms are being rearranged, so this is not always so.)
3Set a password for the computer so that only you can log on to it. Your child will have to ask to be logged on to the computer in order to use it. (However, this is not recommended for older children in the house, who will need this for study etc. reasons).
4Find out how bad your child's addiction is, and what exactly your child is addicted to. Does your child spend most of his/her computer time playing games, chatting online, or just browsing the Web?
- If he/she is addicted to learning information, as long as it is legal, safe and decent, then that should not be an issue. Using the Internet for education, rather than any inappropriate uses, is a great use. Programming sites are a useful class of site, and provide a skill that is good to learn, plus they teach a skill which will be beneficial. If your child is addicted to learning information, then that is benign, and useful to his/her education. Praise them for that. If they must use chatrooms, use educational ones where the emphasis is on learning a skill, not socializing, as these are less biased towards who and more about at, when and why (The 5 W's - Who What Where When Why?)
- Some children go through phases where they like chat room sites, then decide it is no longer of interest, and move on to more educational-related sites, e.g. computer programming, history, science, etc. These will not cause worry in most cases.
5Set a time limit on the amount of time your child can spend on the computer each day. In reality, though, time limits seldom work due to the stress of modern life. As a child gets older, they work it out for themselves, in most cases.
- First, tell your child their time limit and see if they're able to stick to the limit themselves. This will not work, realistically.
- If he can't control his time on the computer on his own (which, if his addiction is serious, will likely be the case), start using a timer. Once the timer goes off, your child has to get off the computer. However, some children may discover for themselves that an activity can get tedious after a while; computing is no different.
- Set a time limit on the amount of time for yourself in order to be a good role model. If your kids see you following your own rules, then they will be more likely to follow.
6Replace the time that your child would normally spend on the computer with other activities – play board games with them, take them to the library, get them together with friends to play sports, etc. Addictions are hard to break, and it's even harder when your child has nothing to do. However, some children are legitimately lonely or do not have social skills, so computer use is a substitute for such social contact.
Part 2
1Be aware of what your child is doing on the computer. Check the Internet browser's history to see what websites she's visiting, or install a keylogger to monitor the programs that she uses.
- Keep in mind that the use of keyloggers does raise concerns about privacy for other individuals and guests who use the computer.
2Buy or download a program that restricts computer use. Parents often find it difficult to enforce time limits because their kids will put up a fight. If necessary, buy software that will enforce time limits or block use. With some of these programs, parents must take explicit action to add time rather than remove or restrict it. This should not be done with older children. In particular, children aged 20+ find this an inconvenience. *Note: Windows 7 and the newer computer systems allow you to set time limits to control when a certain account can be used.
- There are also programs that allow the child to "earn their time" on sites that the parent decides,such as popular social media sites. The child usually earns their time by correctly answering educational questions(math) relevant to their age. Once the child has used up the earned time they are restricted from the site unless they decide to earn more time.
3If you have more than one computer, you may have to monitor them to make sure that your child is not secretly using them. Look at your Internet's browsing history to see if there are any websites on there that you've never visited (and malware can in many cases be the cause, not an individual. This is hijacking of PCs, a separate topic). You can also install a keylogger, which will record any activity on the computer, if you are certain it's worth the privacy infringement.
Part 3
Possible Consequences
1Be consequent and do the following if he/she continues to overuse the computer.
- Assign your child extra chores or homework,
- Take away screen time, or
- Ground your child or give him/her a time out.
- Warn your child' that if they cannot control his time on the computer, you will have to take it (and other screen devices such as TV, video game consoles, iPods, iPads, tablets, cellphones, and smartphones)away completely. However, threats should not be used.
2Follow through on your warning by taking the computer away completely., If your child has his/her own computer, remove the power cord associated with the PC/laptop/tablet, and put it somewhere where your child will not be able to get at it without your knowing.
Community Q&A
How do I get my child to stop using electronics so much?wikiHow ContributorShow him some attention and mention to them what to do to have fun without using computer, phone, laptop or without watching television. Set a good example.
What I can do if I am addicted to games on all devices?wikiHow ContributorHave a certain amount of time in which you can play your games. When you are done, put them away in a closet or somewhere where you can remember where they are, but is not out in the open. Then, hang out with friends, join a club, read a book, or do any other activity you like.
What causes kids to become addicted to a device?wikiHow ContributorThe entertainment of chatting or playing releases dopamine, one of the neurotransmitters responsible for the sensation of pleasure. The desire for more of that pleasurable sensation drives the addiction.
What do I do if my mom takes my computer away and I have nothing to do.wikiHow ContributorYou should read a book, study, dance, sing, play outside, invite your friends over and many more things.
My child does all his chores and is a model student but all he cares about is playing games on his tablet or Xbox. How do I reward him for his excellent behavior without punishing him by denying him the one thing he wants?wikiHow ContributorJust set boundaries. There should be a limited number of hours in the day that your child is allowed on the devices and they should be put away during mealtimes, when someone is trying to have a conversation with him, etc. These aren't punishments, just reasonable boundaries and good manners. Try to engage him in other hobbies (that you do with him). He may feel that you're being unfair, but this is a good lesson that we can't always get exactly what we want. Every child must learn this. He should be doing his chores and schoolwork not for rewards or to avoid punishment, but because it is the right thing to do.
I found my 13-year-old daughter on an inappropriate social media site, where she talked about being homosexual. How do I keep her from accessing this site again?wikiHow ContributorTake away her access to the inappropriate website. Make sure your daughter understands internet safety and boundaries. Homosexuality is not a choice, so if you chose to bring up this issue, tread gently.
How do I handle a child's computer addiction if he is not my child?wikiHow ContributorAddress the problem with the parents. Be polite and kind - nobody wants to be lectured about their parenting. Explain how excessive computer can negatively effect the child, and any other concerns you may have. The child may be mad and express his anger at you, if he does, remind him that computer time is a privilege, not a right.
My child is 11 years old and has meltdowns and gets hysterical if she can't go on the iPad. Is she addicted to it? Being on it is all she's interested in.Try hiding the iPad, or every time she has a meltdown over it give her extra chores, homework, etc. If she realizes that "meltdown over iPad" = consequences then eventually she will stop. So if you take it away from her for long enough and take care of the meltdowns she will eventually stop because she realizes it is doing her no good. If you restrict it for about a month or two it should get rid of the addiction. Do not give in and give her the iPad when she throws a fit, that's just teaching her that if she misbehaves long enough eventually she'll get what she wants.
What should I do if my 14-year-old grandson is addicted to gaming, doesn't go to school, or come out of his room at all?wikiHow ContributorGive him extra things to do, or get his friends together to hang out.
What privileges should I take away?wikiHow ContributorThings like TV, video games, pocket money, etc. are normally effective in stopping children from misbehaving. Depending on the age of the child, you could even take away their toys and say, "Naughty kids don't have toys" -- that normally deters younger kids from misbehaving, as they do not want to lose their toys.
- Take note that Internet history can be cleared. The most obvious method is completely emptying the history. However, this may be done for disk-space saving reasons, not privacy, so don't assume the worst. Some deletion utilities make it impossible to retrieve this file, known as index.dat on Internet explorer.
- Keep in mind that they may not have done it to be sneaky - keyloggers can sometimes cause a computer to run slowly, and he may have just wanted to keep the virtual memory free while playing a game.
- Your child might react with anger when you take steps to break their addiction - be prepared to deal with temper tantrums.
- Don't let your child replace all of his computer time by watching TV or playing video games – addictions to these types of entertainment can be formed, too. However, TV addiction can be considered "benign".
- Remember, there is a lot of benign stuff to read on the Internet.
- When people are new to the Internet, they will inevitably make mistakes. This is life experience. If your child makes a mistake online, let it pass. Sometimes children do not have the social skills when using online chatroom sites and then lose interest in them. Allow them to make their own mistakes.
- If your child wants to meet a public figure (e.g. local celebrity, TV personality, pop star, radio presenter etc.) offline, that is for the most part, very safe, since public figures can easily be verified.
Also, they have verifiable email addresses that prove their identity - e.g. firstname.lastname@example.com, rather than untraceable email@example.com ones.

text: Hello all. I have a small network of about 100 client machines running OS X 10.4.11 and 1 mac pro running OS X Server 10.4.11. There is a program installed on all the client machines that "used to" access a shared data folder on the server. The fellow whom I replaced had set the sharepoint up, and gotten all the details worked out. He no longer works for our institution. This summer, the server had to be reformatted, and all the software reinstalled. I got all the users back in, all the software reinstalled, and everything is up and running. All, except the program that utilizes the shared folder on the server. I have the Sharepoint set up, but it ALWAYS prompts the user to authenticate. I have the shared data in the EXACT same place, and it is set up the same way as far as I can tell. What am I doing wrong, that the Sharepoint will not "automount" without asking the user to authenticate? I have troubleshot this setup until I am blue in the face. I have even logged in as ALL 250+/- users and authenticated and saved the password to their keychain, and it STILL asks for authentication when they log in the next time. Thanks for any help. Nate

Explosion destroys rural Indiana home
Authorities are investigating what caused an explosion that destroyed a house in a rural area of northeastern Indiana.
No injuries were reported from Tuesday's explosion at the two-story house a few miles from the Noble County town of Albion. Albion Deputy Fire Chief John Urso says the couple who lived at the home were outside when the explosion happened.
Urso says firefighters had the propane gas and other utilities to the house shut off but that there was no fire from the explosion. The blast sent debris across the road and left the home's second-floor section toppled onto the ground.
Firefighter Tim Tumbleson tells The News Sun that the explosion shook his house about a quarter-mile away.

Press Review #1: The Rock show in Montreal: Led Zeppelin drives audience wild
MONTREAL -- The last of the loud British supergroups — Led Zeppelin — dropped its heavy metal rock on a packed house of 20,000 fans at the Forum here last night. The four-man group stomped and hammered its way through three hours of deafening rock, before a wildly enthusiastic audience.
Outside the arena, a police riot squad stood by ready to avoid a repeat performance of a riot which marked the visit of the Rolling Stones in the summer of 1972. However, there were no incidents.
Extra police were also assigned to curtail scalpers, some of whom claimed to be getting up to $50 for a single $7.50 ticket. Those who were lucky enough to have tickets heard a cross- section of the group's music over the past seven years, as well as new songs from an upcoming album, Physical Graffiti.
Guitarist Jimmy Page, dressed in black suit trimmed with silver sequins, played well despite the fact that he was suffering from a broken bone in the third finger of his left hand.
Vocalist Robert Plant bare chested and flopping his long, blond hair, was often overpowered by the sledgehammer drumming of John Bonham. John Paul Jones played well on the bass and keyboard.
Even, better than the music at times was the elaborate light show which turned the stage into a fantasy of revolving chrome spheres, and ever - changing color patterns on a veil backdrop.
The group flew in earlier yesterday from New York aboard a chartered $2 million Starship Jet, the same one used Elton John on his tour.
They returned to New York immediately afterwards, and they play there tonight. (A. Ferrante, Feb. 1975, Star)
Press Review #2: Led Zeppelin at the Forum
Nearly 20,000 fans packed the Montreal Forum last February 6, to see and hear Led Zeppelin's performance.
It was a thrilling moment for me when I caught my first glimpse of them. There was a majestic air about the sight of them on stage, and throughout the concert everyone seemed to be held in awe.
I was amazed to hear the multitude of sounds emanated by lead vocalist Robert Plant. He explained that this concert would be a spectrum of their work beginning with their latest album, "Physical Graffiti", soon to be released.
After the first hour they moved on to some of their earlier recorded songs. "No Quarter" featured John Paul Jones playing synthesizer and synthesized bass. John Bonham pleased the audience playing a thirty minute drum solo during "Moby Dick". He utilized a phase shifter, a device which makes the sound seem like it's traveling around the room, and had his tympani fed into a synthesizer that made him produce some unearthly sounds. At times I wasn't sure what instrument he was playing.
Jimmy Page demonstrated his musical creativity when he played his guitar with a violin bow, giving a whining sound to "Dazed and Confused".
They closed the concert with "Stairway to Heaven" during which hundreds of fans held lit matches in appreciation of their performing the song. Page's solo during the song was somewhat disappointing to me. He played some mushy chords instead of the vivid, clean fretwork I expected. The whole song seemed a little under par
Five minutes of continuous applause and yelling "We want more" brought them back for an encore with the crowd pleasers, "Whole Lotta Love" and "Black Dog", but that wasn't enough. Their second encore "Heartbreaker" brought the evening to a close after three and a half hours on stage.
Led Zeppelin is a professional group is every sense of the word. Their stage etiquette was the best I've ever seen. There are a lot of phony glitter groups on the market today that put on stage shows with smoke, fog and psychedelic lighting. Most of them need the diversions to cover up poor musicianship and writing ability. Zeppelin uses these devices to accent their music, not as a substitute for it. If they did they wouldn't be on top of their field as they are today. [A. MARCUCCIO/Feb.75]

Led Zeppelin in Montreal, Feb. 6, 1975
Well it was a very special show for me, I had been a Zep fan since I first heard Led Zeppelin II in 69! So we went to our seats and just had time to sit down... and there it was - Rock and Roll! With Robert's blond hair flying and Jimmy's awesome stage clothes and magical moves, the mighty Zep was in full-powered mode. Considering Jimmy had had a broken finger not too long before (or so I heard), it was really a special set and I very much enjoyed watching one of my heroes play (I am a guitar player). Robert did seem to have some difficulty with some high notes, but most of his singing was quite good throughout the evening. Highlights for me were Kashmir, No Quarter (one of the best tunes they ever wrote, and so spritual in its mood, John Paul is truly a gifted musician), Stairway to Heaven, Whole Lotta Love, and of course my favorite Led Zeppelin tune, Heartbreaker! I really enjoyed the long jams that Zeppelin are famed for - nice to have something unique to listen to every night!
All in all an unforgettable evening! Thanks for the undying memories, Led Zeppelin!

Let's Explore: Engagement
Posted by Oct 08, 2013 10 comments
I am an arts explorer. Investigating ideas, pursuing new bits of information, engaging in conversation, or listening to the buzz around me; I thrive on discovering new perspectives and navigating new concepts. Through much personal exploration, I have realized what I loved most about the theater was not performance (I hold a degree in Acting) but instead the art/artist/audience community that surrounds all art in general. As a twenty-something arts professional, I have decided to dedicate myself to the pursuit of all ideas encompassing this fascinating intersection.
A couple of weeks ago I saw this New York Times (NYT) op-ed, "High Culture Goes Hands-On" by Judith Dobryanzki. In it, Dobryanzki makes the case that museums are trying too hard to create space for "visitor engagement" which augments (even tarnishes) the purpose and reputation of museums; "It changes who will go [to museums] and for what." She even adds in a follow-up article on her personal blog that, "Art museums are… luring visitors by giving them participatory art experiences rather simply providing them with the opportunity to experience viewing glorious works of art." While this piece references the museum world, I would like to challenge this community of arts marketers to think about its broader impact and how its claims can map directly to all arts audiences.
Linda Essig responds to Dobryanzki's point of changing "who will go and for what" on her Creative Infrastructure blog. She writes, "That, it seems to me, is a good thing. Arts organizations have for years been decrying their declining and graying membership and subscription bases. If visitors change and visitors change their expectations, perhaps the sound of membership rosters circling the drain will not be so loud."
Deborah Markow, in contrast to Essig, responds with a letter to the NYT editor agreeing with Dobryanzki, and makes the case that creating visitor engagement opportunities (like meeting the artist or interactive art installations) is not the way to help the public "appreciate and feel at ease in the presence of the great art of the past."
As I read about all of these heated and contrasting ideas, I saw that words such as "activation," "engagement," and "participation" were being dropped into a bucket of full of buzzwords. Over the past two years of working for various Washington, DC theaters who are all energized by the support of their community*, I have come to know these words beyond their empty buzzword-y shells.
I have seen patrons arrive for Woolly Mammoth's production of Sam Hunter's A Bright New Boise and through a series of arts and crafts related activities, connect to an unlikely protagonist and discover more about the nature of extreme religious belief than they ever thought they could. I regularly interact with people who, after participating in one free improv workshop with Washington Improv Theater,fall in love with the style and call my office regularly to see when the next improv performance will be. I have also seen patrons, who, upon learning that dog & pony dc's Beertown is a bit of an audience engaging arts piece, fold their arms and insist that they will not under any circumstances fall for such witchcraft… 30 minutes into the piece they are standing up and nominating an object for removal from the town's timecapsule. All of these interactions and exchanges were not forced and did not use trickery of any kind to "lure visitors."
As my first NAMP Conference is approaching, I am excited to talk with as many people as possible about all of these notions. Does "engagement" and "participation" feel icky and inauthentic to you, or are can they include genuine experiences? Is the arts world working too hard to keep up with the "business of experience"? Is there a happy medium? Help me discover what more this field has to offer. I'm ready to have a conversation.
*I have also come to strongly believe that we should consider illuminating our audiences to the notion that they are creating their own community among themselves… but that's another post for another time.


text: Hello, I am having trouble with a time calculations in iNumbers on my iPad 2. I need to divide 82:00 hours by the number 31 and get the resultant answer in hours and minutes IOW - if a 31 day month is worth 82:00 hours, how much is each day worth in hours and minutes. Then I take that answer and multiply it by a variable number from 1-31. I have a cell formatted in Duration - hours and minutes - of 82:00. I divide that cell by 31 and get the answer 2:39 - formatted hours and minutes or 2:38:43 formatted hours minutes seconds. That is correct. The problem is when I multiply 2:39 by 2. The answer I get is 5:17 in hours and minutes format or 5:17:25 in hours minutes seconds format. 2 hours and 39 minutes X 2 = 5 hours and 18 minutes, not 5:17. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for any help, marriner330

another room and close the door. Or they use the dog crate to keep the dog from becoming a
pest to their guests. Instead of locking the dog up when people come over is to teach them to
behave when people come to the home. They should not bark when the doorbell rings and they
should not race to the door to greet the guests. This type of behavior by the puppy should not be
It is also very important to teach the puppy not to jump up on a guest as they enter the home or to
lick the hands of the person. Inappropriate sniffing also needs to be discouraged. Puppies can be
taught how to behave properly when guests arrive as long as you are consistent and have
When you notice that people do not want to come over to your home after you have gotten a new
puppy, you might want to think about how your puppy behaves when guests arrive. With the
right amount of time and training, your guests will not even realize that you have a new puppy in
the home.
Improving your puppy's socialization skills
In simple terms, socialization means learning to be a part of the society. Socialization in regards
to puppies means helping them become an integral part of the human society. This makes to feel
comfortable with humans, environments, building, noises, sights and smell. Most times, puppies
learn socialization skills all by themselves. Thy do not need any special training to do this. Then,
again, it is also important to aid your puppy though this process.
The best time to socialize your puppy is from 3 weeks of age. After 18 weeks of age it becomes
increasingly difficult for them to accept new experiences and may likely be wary of people and
events. Socialization for puppies is very important because it teaches them social skills that will
make them become much more enjoyable and relaxed. It reduces the possibility of aggression in
your puppy. The wider the variety of experiences, your puppy is exposed to, the better his
chances of relating well to these conditions.
The ways to social your puppy is to take him places, events, see sights, let him experience
sounds such that you would be comfortable with him in these conditions. It all depends on the
type of lifestyle you planned for you puppy. Basically take him out and let him perceive sight
and sound of trains, garbage trucks, and school yards of screaming children, crowds, cats,
livestock or crying infants.

40 per cent.
The maker of the Hills Hoist and Bailey ladder said yesterday its manufacturing plant at Unanderra, NSW, which employs 47 people, will shut early in the new financial year.
The decision follows a review and restructure of the Orrcon Steel business.
Managing director
The $7 million pretax loss from the pipeline mill were "unsustainable".
"It's a two fold [problem]: the economy is just not travelling as strongly as we had previously forecast and in particular we see commercial building activity is quite subdued,"
Mr Twartz said. "But fundamentally the strength of the dollar has run head of where we had thought it would be."
Cheap steel imports are hurting even the largest players.
BlueScope Steel is also feeling the impact, recently flagging that its earnings are being hit by the effects of the rising dollar, lower steel prices and weakness in demand in the domestic steel market.
Hills has three divisions: electronic security and entertainment; home, hardware products; and building and industrial products. The latter is the group's largest revenue earner.
Mr Twartz said that conditions are hard across business as a whole.
"We know that commercial building activity is quite low and retail activity is subdued. There is no quick fix."
At the half year, Hills announced a non-cash impairment charge of $48.7 million after reviewing the carrying value of the Orrcon business, which will now only import large pipe and tube.
Hills' yesterday said full-year profit from operations before closure and impairment charges is expected to be 35 per cent to 40 per cent lower than the $40.2 million achieved in fiscal 2010.
The company downgraded earnings in November and December. Operating profit for in the first half of 2011 fell nearly 30 per cent to $15.5 million.
Taking into account impartment charge on the Orrcon business, the company swung to a net loss of
$41.6 million.
Revenue fell 5.7 per cent to
$558 million on lower steel prices and falling demand in the commercial building sector. Mr Twartz said there are no other operations in the Illawwara but plant employees who stand to loose their jobs may seek roles in other parts of the business where possible.
He said there were no other closures planned in other parts of the company
The share closed down 2.5¢, or 1.9 per cent, yesterday at $1.25, their lowest in more than two years.
Despite yesterday's downgrade and plant closure, major shareholder Perpetual gave his backing to Hills management.
"I don't think management are doing to bad of job and the currency is a major problem," portfolio manager Jack Collopy said.
"It is more the cycle than management. They have stopped the haemorrhaging on a loss-making business, which hs a good thing.
"The stock is trading close to NTA [net tangible assets] and the dividend payout ratio will be high and the yield should be greater than 9 per cent."

Ventriloquist Lynn Trefzger will take the stage of the Rosa Hart Theater at 7:30 p.m. Friday. (Special to the American Press)
Last Modified: Thursday, May 02, 2013 12:39 PM
By Jordan Gribble / Special to the American Press
Ventriloquist Lynn Trefzger will perform as part of McNeese State University's Banners Series at 7:30 p.m. Friday, May 3, in the Rosa Hart Theater at the Lake Charles Civic Center.
"The show that I'll do this weekend is for families — it's for all ages," Trefzger said. "It's a comedy show, so each character has their own personality. It's all very audience-oriented. I'll bring people up and make them talk to the characters."
Trefzger has performed on ABC, TNN and A&E and has been a featured performer on Disney cruise lines for eight years.
Ventriloquism was out of fashion for several decades, but Trefzger said it's seen a resurgence in popularity due to the success of Jeff Dunham and Jay Johnson.
"People were far more likely to want to see a magician or a juggler than a ventriloquist," she said. "Since Jeff Dunham — who I've known since I was 12 — became a superstar and Jay Johnson won 'America's Got Talent,' people are more willing to come see my show. People are much more accepting of the art now."
Trefzger said she wasn't much older than her favorite puppet character, Chloe, a precocious 3-year-old, when she became interested in ventriloquism.
"I got my first dummy for Christmas when I was 9 years old. I was really shy back then and so I picked it up right away and all of the attention was taken off of me and given to that little dummy," she said. "I realized that the dummy was funny and that I had a sense of humor, and that I could get away with saying things that I normally couldn't."
What started out as a hobby, Trefzger said, grew into performances at square dances and birthday parties and eventually into a career.
"My parents thought that I would grow out of this, but I found that I love performing," she said. "It's such a different career choice, but there are a handful of us who do it professionally full time. It's just a lot fun."
• What: Performance by ventriloquist Lynn Trefzger.
• When: 7:30 p.m. Friday, May 3.
• Where: Rosa Hart Theater, Lake Charles Civic Center.
• Tickets: $20 for adults, $5 for children, free for students; buy online at www.banners.org.

Cermaq Trumps Pacific With $609 Million Offer for CopeincaStephen Treloar
Cermaq ASA, a Norwegian fish food producer, offered to buy rival Copeinca ASA for 3.49 billion kroner ($609 million), trumping a previous bid by Pacific Andes Resources Development Ltd. for the fish-oil and meal producer.
Cermaq, in which the Norwegian government owns a 43.5 percent stake, now controls more than 50 percent of Copeinca's shares and will make a voluntary offer of 59.7 kroner apiece for the rest, the company said in a statement today. Pacific's China Fishery, based in Singapore, on Feb. 26 offered to buy Copeinca for 53.85 kroner a share.
Cermaq is seeking to buy Lima-based Copeinca, a producer of fishmeal and oil from anchovy caught off Peru, to expand into the South American nation, the world's largest exporter of the salmon feed ingredients by volume. Cermaq's EWOS unit already has operations in Canada, Norway, Scotland, Chile and Vietnam.
The acquisition "will strengthen Cermaq's position as an integrated marine protein company with a significant global market position in marine raw materials which are essential for the salmon industry," Chief Executive Officer Jon Hindar said.
Cermaq's offer has been accepted by investors controlling 22.7 million shares and will be paid 40 percent in cash and 60 percent in shares. The company also bought 11.7 million Copeinca shares through a directed issue of new shares, as well 852,993 Treasury shares, giving it control of 50.7 percent of the Peruvian company.
Rights Offer
The combined company will benefit from annual synergies of 250 million kroner to 270 million kroner and the deal will add to earnings per share from this year, Cermaq said.
Cermaq plans to fund the acquisition through a 1.6 billion-krone rights issue and bank debt, it said. The Norwegian Trade and Industry Ministry, which owns 43.5 percent of Cermaq, and the Government Pension Fund Norway, which owns 5.4 percent, will participate in the rights offer, the company said.
Shares in Copeinca, which last year reported an operating profit of $75 million on sales of $314 million, rose as much as 4.6 percent and closed 3.3 percent higher at 62 kroner in Oslo. Cermaq fell 0.8 percent to 90 kroner.

Almost half of Londoners think all lorries should be banned from central London, a survey shows today.
HGVs - tipper trucks, cement mixers, skip and scaffolding lorries - have been involved in 53 per cent of London cyclist deaths in the last four years, while accounting for only four per cent of traffic.
Despite an announcement by the Mayor that "rogue lorries" will be stopped from entering London or fined if they do not have compulsory side guards and cyclist-friendly mirrors, 45 per cent of those living in the cpaital think there should be blanket ban on all HGVs in the busiest parts of the city.
The survey, by bicycle insurer Protect Your Bubble, also revealed more than eight in 10 Londoners think helmets should be made compulsory for cyclists and almost nine in 10 say cyclists should be made to undergo road safety tests.
More than two thirds of Londoners think issuing more cyclists with fixed penalty notices will improve road safety.
Stephen Ebbett, global director of the insurer, said: "Bikes are no match against motorised vehicles, so it's vital both cyclists and drivers take every possible precaution in a bid to improve safety.
"Boris Johnson's plans to fine drivers of HGVs that aren't fitted with safety equipment is a step in the right direction, but almost half of Londoners support an outright ban on HGVs in central London. That has to be taken into account."Reuse content

Discussion in 'Draft Zone' started by Risen Star, Feb 26, 2012.
They weren't mobile either. Their teams were contenders almost every year.
I could run a 4.3 at the Virginia Tech track
So Foles is now Dan Marino because of a stat sheet? :laugh2:
Ah ok I thought you were saying the opposite, anyways I actually like RG3 because of his parents background. A military man myself I know he is a well rounded kid and will be a star in the NFL.
Also some people seemed a little surprised about RG3s 40 but he was a track star so he knows how to properly start off and run a 40 moreso than the average football player.
I said he was Dan Marino II?
Does the mention of a name mean you have to assume a comparison? How sad if true.
My comments are nothing against Griffin. In fact, Dawgs0916 knows RGIII personally and can tell you that I have liked him from the word go. Had he not had a meteoric rise I would want him in this draft.
"Less mobility than Foles" is a comparison. There is no assumption on my part.
I still don't understand why they don't do these drills in pads. In what game scenario is Griffin ever going to elude a pass rusher, while scrambling around in tights and no pads?
They've all played tons of games in pads. Evaluators that need to see them do the broad jump in pads need to get off their lazy butts and watch some tape.
Plus then you gotta start policing pads, because you know they will all look for an edge.
No, it was a response to his commentary on stats.
I thought this was a forum that is free of personal attack. Are you going to continue calling me sad because of your comparison of Foles and Marino?
The combine workouts is mainly geared for the scouts to confirm or intrigue their thoughts on players based on what they have seen in game film. The workouts are just a way they can measure "football attributes" to distinguish one player from the next to help the scouting/drafting process. The interviews is what the combine is really about. Most coaches and scouts are just going through their boards and doing their due diligence to find out as much as possible so they can arrange their boards accordingly.
My god Hos... I was going to Pitt when Marino did. LOL!
So, unrelated to this discussion then I have to ask, do you miss them being an independent?
Sad is an attack?
All of this stuff is misplaced, though, because Robert Griffin can actually throw the ball, too. Over 10,000 yards passing, 78 TDs to only 17 INTs in four years.
Just because dude can run doesn't mean you have to all of a sudden dump on him. He's going to be a very good QB.
And a perfect fit in a ZBS who uses the boot leg quite often
Yeah, not sure how it went from RGIIIs incredible 40 time to Hos likes Foles as an indictment.
It went from...
RGIII's 40 time -> Hos likes Foles -> Therefore, RGIII sucks.
Yeah, NFLN has mentioned the 4.33 twice and they say he ran it at the combine, plus links say it too. But I don't remember him running in the combine either.
Who knows.

Not sure it was possible but now im double swooned by the lovable Canadian harmoness Grimes with the release of her second official music video for "Genesis".
As expected the self-directed clip is beyond tripped out and features a (mostly) all girl cast donned in reflective armour and multi-coloured braids as they swoosh around in desert in limos and SUVs while brandishing swords with Claire striking various poses!
"Genesis" is taken from her bold release 'Visions' that spilled earlier this year and struck a chord with the blog-lovin' world.
She'll actually be here for the Meredith Music Festival alongside Four Tet and local crooner Chet Faker along with a few select sideshows.

Stop Chasing & They Will Come
In other words, compliment her like crazy. Make sure that the first phone call does not last more than twenty minutes. It is crucial that you end the first phone call first. If she ends the conversation, the ball is in her court. The conversation should end with you inviting her out for a coffee.
On the first date, don't initiate a conversation about sexual topics, unless of course she does. The first date is a time to explore and find out a little more about each other. Do everything for her, but you don't necessarily have to agree with everything that she has to say. When she disagrees with your stance, accept it, and don't offer excuses either. Excuses make you look weak.
stage three: the earthquake
Now that the little princess is comfortable, it's time to make the ground shake under her feet. The fact that we want to be accepted, liked, and needed is human nature. Once this need is fulfilled, we turn our attention towards stabilizing it. Just think back to when a friend told you that Mary was interested in you.
You probably didn't think much of it at the time, but as soon as you found out that Mary liked someone else, you began wondering why she doesn't like you anymore, and you suddenly became interested in Mary . We always want what we can't have.
Well the same theory applies with women. It is time to take away all that attention from the little sweet princess . How? Simple, ask her to call you. When she does, speak to her and sound really interested, and have a longer conversation. Make her feel that you really like talking to her.
End the conversation by politely letting her know that you have things to do, but let her know that you enjoyed talking to her and that you'll call her back. Don't tell her when you'll call her back. Let her wait for a while (around four to five days). She will wonder why you haven't called back, and eventually call you.
Now the ball is in your court. It is crucially important to sound very happy when she calls you, or else she won't call back. The secret to making this method to work is that you confuse her. First you make her think that you are really interested in her. Second, you make her feel as if you are no longer interested. Then, repeat the process.
What will eventually happen is that her need to be accepted will grow and she will focus her attention to you, to make sure you like her. Then her mind will wander, and she will think about why she is spending so much time thinking about you. Her subconscious mind will then reason that it must be because she cares about you.
It is a shame that people have to resort to such devious methods, but your alternative is to be a nice guy. We all know what happens to nice guys, right? They finish last . Why? Because the women they are with get bored and eventually leave.
Remember that this is a generic method, and you'll probably have to adapt it more to your own situation. Until next time, have fun and happy trails!

Jordan beats Uzbekistan in Asian WCup playoffAP , Associated Press
Sep. 10, 2013 3:17 PM ET
TASHKENT, Uzbekistan (AP) — Jordan beat Uzbekistan 9-8 in a penalty shootout on Tuesday to reach an intercontinental playoff for a place at the 2014 World Cup.
After a 1-1 draw last Friday in the first leg of the Asian zone playoff, the second leg also finished 1-1 after 90 minutes and extra time — during which a power failure forced a brief suspension of the game.
Jordan will now take on the fifth-place team in South American qualifying for a place in next year's finals in Brazil. The playoff will be staged over two legs in November.
Uzbekistan took an early lead after a superb free kick by Server Djeparov early goal in the fifth minute. Jordan goalkeeper Amer Shafi could only parry the shot and Anzur Ismailov pounced on the loose ball to score.
Jordan's Saeed Murjan equalized in the 42nd minute with a powerful shot from outside the box.
Uzbekistan had most of the possession in the second half and extra time, but Jordan's tough defense and a series of saves by Shafi kept the contest level until the shootout.

Lester George has been honored by the ASGCA for his work at Rock Manor Golf Course as part of their Design Excellence Recognition Program, which shines a light on the innovation and problem-solving skills required of today's golf course designers. Nominations were reviewed by a panel of golf industry leaders, including representatives of the Club Managers Association of America, Golf Course Superintendents Association of America, Golf Course Builders Association of America and National Golf Course Owners Association
Rock Manor Golf Course is one of the oldest municipal golf courses in country. It opened in 1922, is owned & operated by City of Wilmington, Delaware and was the only municipal golf course in Wilmington for years. This project was an engineering feat of historic value with many challenges. Despite the multitude of constraints and regulations, Lester George yielded a 6400 yard, par 71 golf course.
The major problems George faced with the Rock Manor Golf Course project were the expansion of Rt. 202 and I-95 encroaching on the course and flooding of the nearby Matson Run Watershed. By creating a completely new golf course with heavy demand on floodwater attenuation, working around utilities and routing around a major highway interchange, Rock Manor Golf Course is now a playable, fun, beautiful course that improved the environment.
The Blue Ball project, the largest state project in Delaware history, is transforming the I-95/Rt. 202 interchange, including Rock Manor, into a gateway for surrounding communities. Lester George of George Golf Design, located in Richmond, Virginia, created a master plan that worked within immense constraints. Initially, the Blue Ball Project assumed the dissolution of the golf course, but instead the City of Wilmington and the State of Delaware turned to Lester George to coordinate the project and manage the tasks of 10-15 government agencies to design and build a golf course within the Blue Ball constraints.
A municipal water plant housing the city's drinking water supply, and the Blue Ball development, surrounded the course. Expansion of Rt. 202 and I-95 had significantly encroached on the course, which had been shrunk to par 67 and 5700 yards. Eventually, flooding of the Matson Run Watershed became a life or death reality to residents; the tributary flooded so badly during Hurricane Hugo that there was loss of life. The course had to become part of the flood attenuation solution or be lost.
The city waited until we got into this project to run new distribution lines for the public water supply from the clear well (the drinking water reservoir). George Golf Design enlisted Wadsworth Golf Course Construction to build the golf course and incorporate new sustainable maintenance activities and floodwater attenuation for Matson Run.
"This is one of those projects that required an incredible amount of hard work, teamwork, coordination and vision from everyone involved," said Lester George. "George Golf Design was fortunate to have the trust and confidence of the City of Wilmington and the State of Delaware to work through the morass of complexities at Rock Manor."
The Blue Ball Project, including Rock Manor Golf Course, was named a winner of the Federal Highway Administration 2006 Excellence in Highway Design Award in both the Environmental Protection and Enhancement and Project Development Process categories. Delaware Today readers voted Rock Manor the Best Public Golf Course in the Wilmington, Delaware area.
Commending the Design Excellence honorees cited for illustrating "Value of the Golf Course," ASGCA Vice President Lee Schmidt said, "In each case, golf course owners, managers and superintendents faced challenges unique to them, including the landscape, environment or business situation. And, in each case, they met the challenges by working with ASGCA members, who serve clients around the world every day."

At first glance, it looks like VMware's recently announced Horizon 6 platform is an admission by VMware that applications, rather than desktops, do matter, and that Citrix has been on the right track all along. Certainly, XenApp has been a thorn in the side of many VMware View implementations through the years, allowing people to deliver applications to solve problems that View could only solve by throwing more desktops at them. XenApp has always, for all its problems, offered a simple way to host and distribute applications to a wide variety of user devices.

Where Will VDI Be in Five Years' Time?
VDI (virtual desktop infrastructure) has long been predicted to be a growth area. This year, the technology has started to edge towards adoption in newer segments, segments in which it has not had significant traction in the past. But will this continue to be the case? Is VDI the computing environment of the future, or just a stepping-stone to another environment altogether?
VMware Buys Desktone and Adds Desktop-as-a-Service
VMware announced its intention to purchase Desktop-as-a-Service vendor Desktone at this year's VMworld in Barcelona. The first strategic purchase by VMware's EVP and General Manager of End-User Computing, Sanjay Poonen, Desktone finally sets the stage for VMware to bring to market its first defined cloud service.
VDI vs RDSH: Squabbling Siblings or Embattled Enemies?
In many a desktop virtualization project, there will be a discussion around the type of desktop virtualisation to use. Before you even get to the entertaining "Citrix vs VMware vs Other" quasi-religious debate, there will be a VDI vs RDSH altercation. It can altercate for days. Ultimately, no business question gets asked, nor decision made, as technical stags lock antlers. It is not unusual for this debacle to be silenced by someone simply getting tired of the PoC posturing and rolling out pallet loads of new PCs.
If any year is to be the year of virtual desktops, then it is not just simply a question of having nifty appliances, but also of having a better understanding of desktop virtualization solutions. A recent article from the BBC website on common language gave the ultimate benefit of a common understanding as "world peace". If a better understanding between people can bring the laudable hope of goodwill unto man, then surely an easier corporate upgrade and better application access will be a mere bagatelle?
The options for purchase for VDI or RDSH, VDI or Terminal Services, for hosted desktops or session desktops are all the same conversation. RDSH is indeed on the back foot through regular re-marketing of terms. Presentation Virtualization Terminal Services and RDSH are the same thing: a multi-user server OS capable of hosting applications and desktops to remote users.
Increasingly, desktop virtualization vendors are ensuring they sit between both VDI and RDSH camps. Citrix obviously – XenApp and XenDesktop. In our Presentation Virtualization whitepaper, every RDSH vendor has a VDI option. But also, "traditional" VDI vendors are being more savvy. Desktone offers a RDSH option. Teradici has delivered on their promise and recently announced Teradici Arch, a software solution for RDSH.
What are the similarities and differences between VDI and RDSH? What can calm everything down and make the combatants think about what it is that they have done?
Nivio – Has Someone got Desktop-As-A-Service for Small Business Right?
Nivio have announced a DaaS solution aimed at SME space. Offering access to Microsoft Windows on any device, rentable applications, and data storage in the cloud, it sounds as if Nivio's service could be just the ticket for the tablet wielding, dead-PC shunning organisations with a workforce who have their own devices, and need to team collaboration with access to Windows based applications.
The thing is, this road has been trodden before: it is a rocky one. OnLive attempted to offer a solution and failed. Even Desktone had a strategy that attempted to directly appeal to this segment but found the return on effort too miserly.
Yet, Nivio have created a service offering delivering Windows applications to Windows, Mac, iOS and Android devices. A web service providing common file storage to store user and group files for that can be syncronised to devices to work offline for editing directly, or automatically made available within the public cloud hosted Windows desktop service. A desktop service that has an on-demand, rentable application interface. User management is in your own hands. While Nivio are targeting their market at the 20-50 user sized organisation space which suggests small business, Nivio are getting a number of calls from project teams in larger organisations.
What are Nivio doing that is different? Will this model be successful? What, if anything, can be learned by other DaaS providers, and what in turn could be learned by Nivio?
StratoDesk enhance offering for converting PCs to ThinClient: NoTouch equals Zero Client?
Complexity, storage, remoting protocols, device access. There are so many "barriers to VDI adoption", that you can wonder why people make the effort. Yet, a centralised desktop infrastructure does offer advantages in management, reliability, wider access and (hopefully) proximity to your data: successful business cases can, and are, being made. Less of the piangevole, more of the piacevole.
A common initiator for moving to virtual desktops is the transition away from existing PCs. Despite them still physically capable of powering-on in the morning and working steadily all day, they aren't up to the heavy lifting that modern operating systems and applications demand: some of you reading may be able to relate on a number of levels. Yet, why refresh those devices as well given those units are now no longer doing the heavy lifting? Many utilise refresh budgets to fund the centralised desktop hardware. A common business case is, the new platform offers a virtuoso performance of business agility over the lentando offering of fixed desktops. However – how do you access these virtual desktops? The Force may well be a binding, metaphysical, and ubiquitous power, but you're here and now: not a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.
Yes, it is possible to purchase new devices – which are ever becoming cheaper, faster and better. However "new" is still an expense. Many opt to reduce their initial spend by re-provisioning existing PCs to thin clients.
To help accommodate this option, Stratodesk have announced the latest version of their NoTouch Desktop. NoTouch is a PC and thin-client re-purposing and management product. As well as supporting Citrix, VMware and Quest, Stratodesk have recently partnered with Desktone to offer easier access to Desktone DaaS desktops.
What does Stratodesk's NoTouch Offer, and can Stratodesk assist in a easing deployment of virtualised desktop projects over and above simply deploying thin clients?

maybe iam overlooking a different bait??what do other hunters used?..and yes ive even tried peanut butter...just looking for something different maybe ive missed.
If you tried all of those and are still looking for something else, you need another hunting spot.
Enjoy life. It has an expiration date.
They say deer have a tendency to taste like, or similar to the food they eat. Try Lobster or Prime Rib. They'll hit your bait pile come winter.
Sweet horse feed,purina deer block

Ask the guys on the porch at Range 14.
sugar beets loafs of bread radishs lettuce deer eat anything in the pines
Try a different spot. If there are decent deer numbers in your area, they would be destroying the corn.
You sleep safely in your beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm -- George Orwell
I had a deer lick clean a pot of baked beans and hot dogs mixed with mild picante sauce while camping at Worthington state park.
i once was lost,now i'm just blind
Keep adding different stuff.....make the bait pile bigger and soon you'll be seeing plenty of bear and no deer

His point is legitimate, if not fully elaborated. A lot of taller guys aren't proportionately large, in that they have comparatively small joints. Small joints are good for aesthetics, bad for big numbers. A number of promising bodybuilding careers have been cut short due to this. Sort of a "
quod me nutrit me destruit
" thing.
A 6'+ strongman athlete and a 6'+ endurance athlete look very different. Look at Derek Poundstone versus Michael Phelps, for example. There's a 3" difference in height, but the joint issue is still evident.
Now, with that said, does it prevent longer-limbed guys from benching decent numbers? No, certainly not. But to suggest that limb length is solely a cop-out is equally ignorant as suggesting it's the only factor.
It's also easier to take positions that benefit us, and is worth noting that you're below average height and don't have slight joints, so perhaps your view on it is a bit skewed.
