Norways Internet Dictatorship
Norway's New Law on Universal Design
That I write this on my old WordPress blog is something of a personal defeat. I had tried publicizing the matter on my Norwegian blog, but alas there has been very little response. However, I have not time to get myself feeling down over it. It is very important to get the word out over what is happening in Norway.
From the 1st July, with few exceptions, Norway introduced a Law that both dis-empowers people with websites as well as bureaucratically telling them how they are going to design them. You cannot decide to ignore the new Law either. If you do, you will be prosecuted under the new discrimination Laws. Not only will you end up fined, but since you are breaking the Law you will presumably end up with a criminal record far more injurious than any financial penalty.
I cannot overemphasize the sheer outrageousness of what Norway has done. Using the visually impaired as their pretext – and a cynical excuse indeed this is – the authorities now lay down for you a whole set of criteria that you shall abide by if your webpage is going to be legal. The Law applies to you regardless of your nationality, regardless of where your webpage happens to reside physically (ie. regardless of where the server or the domain of your page are in the world) so long as your principal readership is the Norwegian public. In practice, this will apply to people residing in our country and their webpages, since it is unlikely that you will be prosecuted if you live outside it (even though it theoretically would be possible, reading the new Law).
Under this shameful and cowardly pretext, which I am sorry to say some of the organisations for the blind have swallowed lock, stock, and barrel in their welcoming of this Law, the authorities now remove your freedom to design your page as you want. Firstly this applies to all new pages, but from the year 2021 every single webpage in Norway must be compliant. The Law now tells you:
- what colour combinations you can and cannot use
- what contrasts of text you can and cannot use
- standards for your fonts that you must follow (ensuring that they can be changed for the visually impaired)
- rules you must comply with before you put in your hyperlinks
- standards you must comply with when using headlines to your text
- mandating the use of alternative text when you use media (sound, video, or pictures). Apart from making the job of putting a video online much harder, it will also in practice make it impossible to post if the text you now are mandated to include of necessity requires you to use copyrighted lyrics (as in music) which you do not have the rights or the money enough to put online.
- criteria your publishing tools must satisfy (ie the programs you use to design your webpages)
- a whole list of about forty other technical criteria, including amonst other things translation of your content into other languages, that you MUST comply with by Law.
Google Translate this: http://uu.difi.no/veiledning/nettsider/krav-til-nettlosninger/krav-wcag
If you are reading this, you are probably thinking that I am overreacting and have got the wrong end of the stick. Not at all. Norway has appointed an entire Government Department to start following up, and making sure that this new Law is obeyed. You can find out yourself by Google Translating what they have on their own webpage www.difi.no and more to the point http://www.difi.no/digital-forvaltning/universell-utforming. I say Google Translate, because despite these bureaucratic busybodies' interference with your freedom as a webmaster telling you how you must make your content fully accessible into other languages, they themselves have not completely translated everything they are telling us in Norwegian into English. I wonder why? Perhaps because the Law is more suited the old Soviet Union than a modern democracy like Norway (if Norwegians are generally too Law-abiding and meek to stand up and say what they think, perhaps this is not something they want to advertise to the whole world?)
So why should you be outraged if you are not already outraged over your freedom of expression being taken from you? Because in my opinion this has nothing to do with accessibility at all. It has to do with money. Already, in the wake of this Law, commercial firms are creeping out of the woodwork with offers to make people's webpages Law compliant. My belief is they have been in on this all along, and this is just a cynical measure to force us to pay for what we have been doing ourselves for many years.
Even worse, there are cases – though I shall leave them for you to find yourself and shall not name anyone here for legal reasons – where the "solutions" you and I now are required by Law to buy if we are going to have a webpage are to all intents and purposes this FREE WORDPRESS PLATFORM. You heard me right. There are certain Norwegian firms now SELLING solutions using WordPress and other platforms that were intended to give you and me FREE publishing on the Internet. In practice, because of the new Law's strict criteria, what is going to happen is that Norwegians will still have webpages – but they will have to pay a third party for the privilege of using what they previously have used completely free (so the average person can guard against not being in compliance with the Law). If you are a developer of WordPress, you should also be outraged. Can someone explain to me why if I were to try selling Google Earth (as some do), that would be called a SCAM…. but certain Norwegian firms are now using this Law to make money selling WordPress?
I beg you to check out what I have written. Every word is true. It is time the world knew about this, and if this isn't the time to use the "F" word and tell these power sick people where to get off, I don't know when there is one. I haven't named any commercial venture here, but if you Google the new Law you will find people offering courses for several thousands of Norwegian Crowns as well as "Internet Packages" for those who want to make personal webpages. Some of these "Internet Packages" are basically barely modified WordPress or Joomla.
This Law won't affect personal blogs, but it will affect all other private webpages you might have – as well as schools, school music bands, football clubs, churches, and any organisation that uses the Internet. All of these, thanks to corporate greed, are now going to have to start paying up if they want to have a webpage in Norway.
Dam them. Dam their hypocrisy, because this has nothing to do with their pretended accessibility (if you don't like my colours or fonts, you can change those in your browser or operative system today). And dam their attack on our freedoms to hell!
Soured Memories of Sweet Sixteen
This post is in response to a writing challenge on The Daily Post. You can see this here http://dailypost.wordpress.com/dp_prompt/only-sixteen. It also marks the first anniversary of Adwick School's demolition. The post refers exclusively to Adwick School, and (save for the poetic reference to others taking the throne) not to the two institutions that subsequently succeeded it.
That last seat of childhood authority is no more. One year on, I still struggle believing it! That our prestigious institution could so unceremoniously fall to the dust beggars belief.
For in truth our Emerald Queen was gone long before her ruined courts were razed. And I find that so hard to comprehend. What in my day was revered if though in dread, these days is scarcely remembered save in contempt. Therefore though those buildings be but newly gone, our world therein is much that longer lost.
While these ruins of our youth remained, they were defamed by those that came after us. A generation that had not seen the glories of our day, remembered them for other things. I too saw her slow decline, I watched her uniform in decay, and I heard of the infamy of her latter day. I still sighed when others took her throne. It was over then, not years later when the buildings went.
Those that scorn the memory of the Emerald Queen could not have known how once it was, and verily I remember her latter crew. They wore the uniform but as they did please; we were never once given the choice! Yet for all that we rebelled, secretly we admired the place – that final seat of absolute authority over the devices and desires of our own hearts! This is the greatest difference between us and them, and now and then!
That it should have ended the way it did feels so unreal. In my day the uniform was not for negotiation, and whatever I said I loved its distinctive colours of green, and white, and black. I said otherwise when I was a pubescent sixteen year old. Like my protestations against wearing a uniform, I celebrated my (so-called) independence the day I finally left – in both cases an attempt to assert myself in the adult world I entered, yet neither were seriously really meant.
Then came those after us, and they did mean those things they said. Among them those that said they would willingly press the button, that day our school came down. Then my foolish words came back to haunt me. The Emerald Queen was dead.
The Emerald Queen
Alas thou mine emerald queen, whose royal robes were black, and white and green – whose Courts of great austerity were in those fields between, and wast of all with reverence seen, of whomsoever thine had been!
Alas! How thou art brought unto the ground, our palace ruined, thy name renowned! and nought is left of all we had: all is gone and where is found, that love, and fear, and awesome dread?
Alas, thou art gone, and thou art dead, despised of those who never knew thee then (nor us for whom thou wast our head)!
End of Night
With the stiff competition from Arctic Organist – there you'll find the "countdown to the midnight sun" – and coming to you further South, Yorkshire Viking Norway cannot hope to beat Arctic Organist on being first. The Arctic Organist will have the midnight sun three days before we do.
So Yorkshire Viking Norway is going new ways to be first! We will now tell you that from today there is no more night. This deserves some qualification, since the last twilight you can see tends to disappear at about quarter to nine (this of course will soon be a quarter to ten when we adjust the clocks tonight). However, scientifically speaking the darkest time of our day is no longer night. That is because the sun is never lower than 18° below the horizon. This means that astronomical twilight never ends.
For those of you who are scratching your heads, there are three types of twilight. The first is what you get immediately after the sun has set, or just before it rises. This is defined as being the time when the sun is below the horizon, but no lower than 6°. This is called civil twilight. In this time, it is usually possible to continue outdoor activities without the aid of artificial light. Then you have the second type of twilight, which is called nautical twilight, when the sun is somewhere between 6° and 12° below. This type of twilight is what I call the "blue"-type, and in this you do need the aid of artificial light to continue doing things outdoors. Lastly there is the twilight when the sun is lower than 12° but no lower that 18°. The sun's illumination is almost imperceptible, and unless conditions are optimal you won't see it at all. Even if you do, it will be no more than a very faint trace on the horizon.
So there really wasn't so much to make then of today's great happening – other than beating Arctic Organist to the goal. The next landmark in our Arctic year will be on the 13th April. From then on nautical twilight never ends, so perhaps that is the point at which you would notice that it never really gets dark any more (weather can of course still alter this). Finally, before Arctic Organist beats us by three days in getting the midnight sun on the 21st May, from the 2nd May there is nothing more than civil twilight. That is to say that, in practice, it is by then light all day even if it is cloudy as well.
In Lødingen, the midnight sun will be visible from the 24th May. Tonight, as pointed out above, we move the clocks an hour ahead for summer time. Remember to change yours before you go to bed!
Propria & Tie to Germany
Newsflash! The Yorkshire Viking Norway is going to Germany!
Last year it was unfortunately not possible to carry out the planned holiday, announced in this blog. God willing that will be different this year. Yesterday I was able to buy one of the last tickets to the grand opening of the Bach Festival in Leipzig.
I'll write a little more on the coming German Tour this weekend. In the meantime, I shall be changing my own rules a little.
With respect the propria and (school) tie, the propria were designed to spare the latter in order to keep it in good condition. The German Tour will however see both in use.
For a variety of personal reasons, it seems very fitting to me to use propria for this particular trip, and for those same it must therefore be even more so to use the real thing for the opening concert itself. Going to Germany is yet another irony in my life history, for those who remember me from my childhood. It is for that reason I mention this here. If you're one of those, do get in touch!
More on this later. Watch this space.
Why Does Hardly Anyone Know About SeaMonkey?
I've been using SeaMonkey for two years. I'm amazed there aren't more of us.
Many don't even know what SeaMonkey is. I'm referring to the browser. Today a lot swear to Chrome, or Safari, and there are even a few who stick with Internet Explorer. It's not these people who surprise me; it's those who have chosen Firefox, and specially those who use that with Thunderbird I can't quite understand.
Seamonkey does the work of both! This browser has the same "engine" as both Firefox and Thunderbird. It has the same technology underpinning it. The only difference is that you get everything in one process on your machine! Like the older Netscape, SeaMonkey is a "suite". Indeed you get an address book, webpage builder, and chat module as well – and it still goes a lot quicker than Firefox in my opinion!
There's something odd about us human beings. We'll use lots of money on software like Microsoft Office when alternatives like Open Office are just as good, and won't cost a penny! That said, I have to admit that SeaMonkey could have been promoted a lot better than it has been. Many people have quite simply never heard of it.
Nevertheless I strongly want to encourage you to try SeaMonkey. If you're coming from Firefox, there's no need to feel uncomfortable with something you're unfamiliar with: you can actually make SeaMonkey look exactly like your old browser by using a so-called "theme". So try SeaMonkey now!

Easier Flashlight Mod Increases Run Time 3.6X
We are going to take a long run time flashlight (65
hours) and turn it into a longer run time flashlight (Update: The
title of this Instructable says 3.6x run time but actual run time ended
up being over 360 hours).
Yes it is another long run time flashlight hack. This one is easier than my other one. All you need a resistor, a soldering iron and this flashlight.
This Eveready flashlight (model number 5109LSH7 or 5109LS) costs $4.97 at Lowes:
(This is a great long run time flashlight to have even if you don't do the modification.)
Where to buy:
I just picked up another one at my local Lowes. I like this flashlight because as is it has a long run time before the battery needs to be replaced (65 hours). It is bright. It is cheap and it is easy to hack. You can do this hack in 10 or 15 minutes and most of that time will be waiting for your soldering iron to heat up.
The only thing about this flashlight that is less than optimum is that the 3 LEDS have a little too much current going through them. The LEDS appear to be "straw hat" type (20 milliamp) LEDS. Each LED has about 60 milliamps running through it.
Here is a data sheet for a straw hat LED:
The LEDS in this flashlight may be specially made to handle more current but in case they are not, this modification will bring the current down to a level that will insure tens of thousands of hours of LED life.
I chose to add a 56 ohm resistor to the circuit so each LED runs at about 16.5 milliamps. This will increase the run time by 3.6 times.
The other step by step instructable to make a long run time flashlight is here:
Either one will be good to have in an extended power outage.
You will need to unscrew the black ring that hold the clear plastic cover on the front of the flashlight. Then remove the assembly shown in the picture above. Install the battery and re-assemble the flashlight. Test the flashlight to make sure it works. Remove the rind and assembly shown in the picture above. Un-solder one of the two red wires from it's metal contact. I chose the one on the left.
Solder The Resistor
Now lets select a resistor. I chose a 56 ohm resistor which reduced the current in the circuit going to the 3 LEDS to 50 milliamps (it was 180 milliamps before the modification). Here are some other resistor values and the currents I measured:
44 ohms (two 22 ohm in series) = 56 milliamps
You may want to try out some other resistors for longer run time or higher brightness. I was going for 200+ hours of run time which is about a month of use if used 6 hours a day.
100 ohms = 31 milliamps
Solder one end of the resistor to the metal contact and the other end of the resistor to the wire that was originally attached to the metal contact.
The first picture shows the light from an unmodified
flashlight on the left and a modified flashlight on the right. Note that
the light on the right is produced using 3.6 times less power or about
28% of the power to produce the light on the left. The picture of the
warning sign was taken using only the light from the modified flashlight
at a distance of 18 feet (camera on zoom).
Long run time flashlights make great
gifts. Make several for the people on your gift list. They are also
great for emergencies. This one is good for a 3.6 x bigger emergency.
Update 11-10-12.
I started a test to see
how long the batteries would last running 24 hours a day. The test
started on the morning of 10-26-12. I was expecting a 200 hour run time.
After 15 days (360 hours). The flashlight still puts out a usable
amount of light. I can still read with it without any problem. I also
got the opinion of a fellow flashlight enthusiast who thinks the
flashlight is still useful for its intended purpose which is for the
user to be able to easily see their way around the house in the dark and
be able to easily read. The flashlight is noticeably dimmer than it was
at the beginning of the test so I would conclude that this is a 360
hour flashlight. It has exceeded my expectations because the run time
has been increased 5.5x. If I was using this flashlight 6 hours a day
the test would have taken 60 days to get to this point.
If this had been a real emergency I would gladly use this flashlight several more days.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
Now I know that I can only file as Married Separate or jointly, but my wife is an alien non resident, we also have a 2 month old daughter. I was told by the tax consultant I can use my wife as a dependent and file as head of household. I was not aware until I researched that it might be accurate. My wife also made less that 800 for the whole year I don't like to work since it is to much a risk. She is going to college and applying for the dream act financial aid and I am not sure if me filing this way may affect her. If I did not file correctly I don't want to go spending money that is not legally mine. any advice will help.
If your wife is a nonresident alien, then you could elect to treat her as a resident alien for the entire year and you could then file a joint return with her. You may also be able to file as head of household if you otherwise meet the requirements for head of household status. Determining whether you qualify for head of household status depends on a lot of different facts, so you really should consult with a competent local tax professional in order to determine what your best course of action is.

GeoHoliday-Starpoint & Royal Elite Timeshare Scam
SUBMITTED: Tuesday, December 24, 2013POSTED: Tuesday, December 24, 2013
I paid GeoHoliday-Starpoint $600 to sell my Royal Elite timeshare. I called them on a monthly basis to follow up with the progress. My representative's name was Kim **. She even called me back a few times. However, my contract ends in June. I have called her countless times in the last month and left messages. No one will call me back at all. They were unsuccessful in selling my timeshare. I don't think they even tried. This is a scam and I highly suggest that you do not give them any money!
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Energy watchdog Ofgem has recruited 20 Essex Street barrister Colleen Hanley as the second-in-command of its legal team.
Hanley, who was called to the bar in 2003 and who took tenancy at 20 Essex Street a year later, will replace Ruth Ashworth, who is moving to the policy and strategy unit at the Office of Fair Trading.
Ofgem legal director of markets Duncan Sinclair, who co-heads the regulatory body's legal group with David Ashbourne and Irene Hurrell, said Hanley would bolster the team's ability to deal with contentious and other matters in-house.
20 Essex Street senior clerk Brian Lee confirmed Hanley's departure from the set and wished her well.

Royal Caribbean extended the upcoming first Australian season of Explorer of the Seas by 2 voyages: a 12-day New Zealand itinerary and a 24-day Transpacific cruise to Seattle from Sydney, both departing in April, next year.
During the Australian winter the ship will be based in Alaska. Passengers booked on the Asian repositioning sailing have been offered a number of alternative itineraries to re-book.
The locals down uder are anticipating the arrival of the biggest cruise ship to be based in Australia.
According to the commercial director Royal Caribbean Cruises Australasia, Sean Treacy, even before the arrival of Explorer of the Seas, the ship was proving to be a huge hit with Australians. The line were happy to announce they had extended Explorer's season until mid-May, when she would complete her transpacific voyage (calling at Noumea, New Caledonia; Mystery Island and Vila, Vanuatu; Suva, Fiji; Honolulu and Lahaina, Hawaii; ending in Seattle, WA).
The New Zealand voyage, roundtrip from Sydney, will call at Picton, Napier, Wellington, Auckland and Tauranga.
Royal Caribbean offers a special deal for bookings by 30 June, 2015: buy one, get up to 50% off the cruise fare of the 2nd passenger.
Recently, Explorer of the Seas underwent a multimillion dollar renovation and will be for the first time home-ported in Sydney from November 2015, joining line's other locally based vessels, Radiance of the Seas and Voyager of the Seas, and in Brisbane, the Legend of the Seas.

This IDC study analyzes the installed base of smartphone users in the United States by operating system (OS). It combines IDC's extensive knowledge of smartphones, smartphone users, subscribers, subscriber growth, and challenges and opportunities for different operating systems. Findings in this document are based on information gathered from primary and secondary sources during the past six months.Mobile network operators continue to see substantial smartphone growth and sales as subscribers continue to transition from feature phones and current smartphone subscribers upgrade to newer devices, via either early upgrade plans or the traditional two-year route. IDC estimates smartphone penetration to reach 85.8% of the overall U.S. subscriber base by the end of 2015, reflective of the increasing value of smartphones relative to feature phones in a market where it is becoming easier for subscribers to get their hands on a smartphone device. While at one time smartphones required a sizable down payment, there are now a number of relatively inexpensive devices available from a number of different manufacturers for all operating systems.
"Smartphones continue to penetrate the market, with approximately 85.8% of the U.S. subscriber base with a device at the end of 2015," says Brian Haven, senior research analyst with IDC's U.S. Mobile Consumer Services team. "The challenge for mobile network operators is converting the rest of the addressable market on to smartphone devices and moving older 3G smartphone subscribers to LTE devices. This transition will not only drive sales but also positively impact data revenue from LTE traffic."

ALLAN HOUSTON appears to be one of nature's noblemen. He is the kind of guy who would never think of reaching across someone's plate and snaring a chicken leg on the dinner table.
His gentle, even demeanor strikes you as someone you could tell your troubles to, like a shrink, or a barber. He is not about to interrupt you to make his point. Allan Houston raising his voice seems as implausible as hockey fans at Carnegie Hall.
And his eyes -- his wide, brown, doe-like eyes -- are filled with compassion, understanding, serenity. So on those occasions when he mutates into a monster, it is bewildering, and, if you are a Knicks fan, wondrous.
''At halftime,'' Chris Childs said -- referring to Friday night's game when the Knicks trailed the Heat in Game 6 at Madison Square Garden, and had been booed with a profound and insightful passion by their adoring fans -- ''Allan came into the locker room all emotional. He was just saying things. He was upset. And you could tell it in his eyes. His eyes were speaking loudly.''Continue reading the main story
''At halftime,'' Houston said after the game, in which the Knicks mounted an astonishing comeback to win by 72-70, and send the series to Game 7 this afternoon in Miami, ''I felt that we had to stay together as a team. Just keep doing all the good, fundamental things we knew we could do. And I had to attack the basket more.''
Attack he did. Not wild, like a wildebeest. More like Hannibal, coolly charting out the best positions for his elephants, and decisively heading tusks-first into the breach.
It was truly a team effort, as they posit in the textbooks, but in this case, and in more and more cases over the past few years, Houston has assumed a leadership role, both on the court and in the locker room. In typical understated fashion, he seems to have emerged, like the top patriarch in the Eastern Orthodox Church, first among equals.
And when Houston at times on the court becomes as passive as a rag doll, or, in another instance, hostage to a gooey defender like Dan Majerle, the team must hurdle that barrier, of a lost or nugatory leader. Not good.
Such was the case in Game 5, when he attempted but two shots in the second half, as the team lost in the closing minute. Houston is the team's high scorer, at about 20 a game. He scored 12 in that game. In the first half of the game Friday, which the Knicks had to win to dodge elimination, he shot 3 for 9 -- hitting one 3-point shot -- and had taken no free throws. Not good.
''I had heard all that stuff about how good Majerle was guarding me,'' Houston said, ''and I heard guys telling me, 'Majerle can't guard you.' I heard lots of things. But I knew I just couldn't keep settling for jump shots. I'm always better when I become more aggressive.''
With just 46 seconds gone in the third quarter, Houston sank a 3-point shot. But he was looking to drive. Shortly after that 3-pointer, he swept to the hoop and hit a twisting layup through and over a host of arms. Within a half-minute, he drove again, but found Charlie Ward under the hoop with a dish that Emeril Lagasse would have loved. There was another assist by Houston.
And after a timeout, it was Houston who went to each of the other players on the court and whispered a reminder of a play to come. The Knicks, with others like Latrell Sprewell, Larry Johnson, Patrick Ewing and Ward picking up the pace with shots, steals and rebounds, chopped the deficit, amazingly, to 4, back up to 7 on an Anthony Carter 3-pointer, but Houston had the last word in the period, hitting a spinning, fadeaway jump shot seconds before quarter's end.
Knicks fans were on their feet. Their screams could be heard in Bergen County. Suddenly, no greater love had they.
And, as history now records, the Knicks came back in the fourth quarter to tie the game at 70-70, and, with 17.6 seconds left, Houston, taking it upon himself to do something special, drove to the hoop again, was fouled, and, with that delicious combination of frost and fire -- ice cream and hot fudge -- Houston sank the 2 final points of the game, for a team-leading 21 points -- 5 for 6 from the field, including a pair of 3's and 3 free throws.
Now the Knicks go back to Miami, a team that they view (and are viewed in return) with the ardor reserved for a neighbor who keeps running over your lawn with his truck. And has a dog that barks all night, to boot. But it was in the deciding game of last year's playoffs, which also went the full length, when Houston again emerged the hero with a last-second shot that bounced up and then in, a moment in Knick lore that ranks with Willis Reed's limp.
Houston, in fact, twisted his ankle on a drive in the last half Friday. But you would not have known it by watching him.
''It's still sore,'' he said after the game, ''but it'll be ready in Miami. And the team that can execute under pressure, that can make the big plays, the plays you dream about and pray about, that team will win.'' He said Friday night's game demonstrated how the Knicks stick together, do not get rattled, make the big plays under pressure.
There is a saying in sports that you must let the game come to you. But not if you are the star. Not if you are the leader. You must take the game by the lapels, and demand satisfaction.
Houston, who was a virtual bystander in Game 5, did what a star has to do in Game 6. He did what a leader has to do. That is, he did it.
Game 7 awaits.Continue reading the main story

Day 2: Grabbin' BBQ in KC
We figured being in Missouri we needed to stop by Kansas City for some amazing BBQ since the city is known for it!! We stopped at.... We ordered 4 huge meals and shared between the four of us!! We don't think we could eat at another BBQ place again that is how good it was!! After this we drove to a town in the middle of no where (3 hours east of Denver) on I-70 West in Kansas State next to a town called Kanarado (we loved this name) and got a hotel to get some shut ...
Plaza Centre, Kansas City
Switched hotels today for a better deal and the hotel is so nice and on the Main Street. This area is called The Plaza and seems to be the city centre although it feels more like a posh town. Lots of big and little fountains everywhere, really nice buildings and lots of flowers. Nice shops - bought another pullover to keep warm! There were a couple of musicians on the street and a couple of street magicians. Had quite a lazy day and a day of food. By the time ...

... Fair outside and down the street, so we never went in as we got distracted by Bratwurst sausages and beer that they were selling and took a walk around the fair. It was next to the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art which has lovely grounds and outdoor sculptors. The Kepler did too actually. Really nice area. We popped in and got kicked out shortly afterwards as it was late. It was free and pretty cool, so we may go back ...

He flew supplies into Berlin when Stalin cut off the city. He did not run for a third term, enabling Eisenhower to become the 34th President. He raised funds to build the Library and museum rather than sell his papers to the highest bidder ...

After creating this script, I have used it in almost every case that requires decompilation, and I guess you are going to use it, too.
This script gives you the base address and module name, so you can use !SaveModule from SOS to save the module.
Ok… maybe you are wondering what is so cool about this script.
Let me explain. Using the !SaveModule or !SaveModules commands from SOS, you can save the modules and decompile them using .NET Reflector. However, if you use !SaveModule, you need to get the base address and image name before using this command.
It means you need to dig in the dump file to get this information. If you read John's book or Tess's blog you know how to do that.
The goal of this script is to:
1- Save time getting the module address and image file name.
2- Enable you to use just the method name from !clrstack, for example, to get the module information. So, if for some reason you want to get the module or all modules from a method call, you just need to run the SAVE_MODULE.TXT script, following this example:
0x0012eebc 0x03df0669 [DEFAULT] [hasThis] Void SomeComponent.fACAtenInterl.DtGRes_DoubleClick(Object,Class System.EventArgs)
$$a<myscripts\save_module.txt SomeComponent.fACAtenInterl.DtGRes_DoubleClick
And you will get the Base Address and Image Name for all modules using this method. Then you use !SaveModule to save the file.
I opted for using the method name as argument, but I could use the EIP address (0x03df0669 above). It would be faster than it is today, but less flexible in my opinion because sometimes you may want to get the module information using a method call that's not in the call stack.
As you can see I use the .shell command. Using this command I cannot use spaces to indent the script. In other words, I cannot use line breaks. It means you will get two very long lines when copying and pasting the source code below to a text file.
Note: If you use Word it'll keep the same spacing I'm using below. Using Notepad it adds a blank line for each source code line.
Another point to keep in mind: you need to run it using $$a< not $$>a< because the latest form is used when the lines are separated by line breaks as most of my scripts. For more, check the Windbg help file.
Calling the script using one method from the call stack above.

Using !SaveModule. The arguments are the output from the script execution:

Now, using a method call that doesn't exist:
Below is the Base Address and Image Name, so you can learn how to locate this information from the script output:

$$ Get Base Address and Image Name from a managed module using a method as argument.
$$ This information can be used as argument for !SaveModule.
$$ Compatibility: Win32.
$$ Usage: $$a<myscripts\SAVE_MODULE.TXT methodName
$$ Example: $$a<myscripts\SAVE_MODULE.TXT System.Web.Hosting.ISAPIWorkerRequestInProcForIIS6.MapPathSlowUsingIISCore
$$ Note: Don't use the method arguments, just the method name:
$$ System.Web.Hosting.ISAPIWorkerRequestInProcForIIS6.MapPathSlowUsingIISCore(String) <– Wrong.
$$ System.Web.Hosting.ISAPIWorkerRequestInProcForIIS6.MapPathSlowUsingIISCore <– Right.
$$ Attention: Do NOT use $$>a<, use $$a< to run the script.

$$ All my scripts are provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confer no rights.
$$ Below I force the temporary files to be overwritten with invalid content.
$$ If I don't do that and you use an argument that doesn't exist in any module, then the last one will be displayed.
$$ It happens because the script will read the temp files and they will have valid content from the last good execution.

The ILS markets are leading the way in risk transfer in a number of ways and could even help open up brand new opportunities, closing the protection gap in the process, John Seo, co-founding partner of Fermat Capital Management, tells Intelligent Insurer.
The catastrophe bond markets represent the leading indicator of where catastrophe pricing is heading, with the rates and trends driving this sector often not reflected in the traditional market for up to two years, believes John Seo, co-founding partner of Fermat Capital Management.
Seo explains that such a dynamic is inevitable and expected, given the gulf between the two markets in terms of how often the risk is traded: cat bonds change hands on an almost daily basis, each trade reflecting investor sentiment towards that risk, while traditional reinsurance contracts are renegotiated only annually.
"The cat bond market is the leading indicator of where pricing is going," Seo says. "Prices are negotiated and settled on very frequently. In contrast, the traditional market is very relationship-driven and trades two or three times a year at most.

WIGAN ATHLETIC 3N'Zogbia 57, 90+4Sammon 68WEST HAM UNITED 2Ba 12, 26Report by Paul ChialtonWords could never do justice in describing a miraculous afternoon at the DW Stadium.From agony to ecstasy Wigan Athletic produced the comeback of all comebacks to re-ignite their survival bid and go into the final weekend of the season with a fantastic opportunity to secure a seventh season in the top-flight.Charles N'Zogbia was the hero, starting the Latics revival ten minutes into the second-half.2-0 down at the break Roberto Martinez's words must have been ringing in the players' ears as his team started the second period intent on pulling back the score-line, injected by the introduction of Conor Sammon and Victor Moses.Setting off on a trademark slalom targeting the West Ham defence N'Zogbia was fouled by James Tomkins 20-yards out. Picking himself up the Frenchman took aim and powered his effort into the top-left corner to half the deficit and revitalise the DW Stadium.A Demba Ba double had put the visitors into a strong lead within the half-hour, twice heading home from close range to dampen Latics' lively, bubbly start in which Momo Diame and Hugo Rodallega were denied by excellent and instinctive saves from Robert Green.But N'Zogbia's goal was the catalyst for a final 30 minutes that has to be one of the most thrilling, pulsating and exhausting the Premier League has seen all season. Conor Sammon, already a cult-hero among the home fans, endeared himself further to the home fans with his contributions after coming on. His pressure and persistent running rattled the home defence into unforced errors and, in many ways, together with Moses the two were an inspiration for the home side throughout the second period.The Irishman got the rewards for his hard-work and endeavour shortly after the hour-mark, fed into the area by N'Zogbia the forward but back onto his right-foot before slotting calmly into the bottom-right corner to notch his first Wigan Athletic goal and send the DW Stadium into delirium, sensing another goal on the horizon.With both sides needing a win at all costs the twenty minutes that followed were more resembling of a Basketball match than a game of football. It was attack v defence, end to end stuff with space opening up all over the field and the game there for the taking.It came down to who could hold their nerve and take advantage of the opportunities that were presented. Heroic defending from Gary Caldwell and Maynor Figueroa denied West Ham from close range, whilst the ever-calm Antolin Alcaraz was calculated in his interventions inside his own area.Then came the moment the game had been waiting for. Finding space inside the West Ham box Charles N'Zogbia, who had now scored three goals in his last three games, smelt a fourth, and an electrifying winner.Shifting onto his trusty left-foot the winger took aim and blasted into the bottom-left corner. Cue some of the most incredible celebrations ever witnessed at the DW Stadium in what was billed as one of the biggest games the Latics home has ever hosted.Referee Mike Dean blew the whistle ten seconds later, exploding the home fans ahead of the team's lap of appreciation - a truly remarkable day that each one of the 22,043 who attended will never forget.Some way to round off the final home game of the campaign, now for the season finale next Sunday at Stoke City, a game Latics will go to in high spirits and full of belief after one of the greatest results in their history.Wigan Athletic: Al Habsi, Alcaraz, McCarthy (Sammon), G. Caldwell (c) Watson, N'Zogbia, Cleverley (Moses, 45), Boyce, Rodallega (McArthur, 90+3), Diame, Figueroa.Subs: Kirkland, Gohouri, Di Santo, GomezWest Ham Utd: Green, Gabbison, Tomkins, Collison (Keane, 84), Hitzlesperger, Spector (Parker, 61), Ba, Hines, Piquionne (Cole, 75), Spence, Bridge.Subs: Boffin, Da Costa, Sears, UpsonReferee: Mike Dean

Definition of bacteria
: bacterium —not usually used technically
Is bacteria singular or plural?
Bacteria is regularly a plural in scientific and pedagogical use; in speech and in journalism it is also used as a singular, and it is sometimes pluralized as bacterias. caused by a bacteria borne by certain tiny ticks — Wall Street Jour. more resistant to chlorine and elevated water temperatures than other bacterias — Allan Bruckheim, M.D., Chicago Tribune These journalistic uses are found in British as well as American sources.
Did You Know?
Microscopic single-celled organisms lacking a distinct nucleus are known as bacteria. They may be shaped like spheres, rods, or spirals. They inhabit virtually all environments, including soil, water, organic matter, and the bodies of animals. Many bacteria swim by means of long whip-like structures called flagella. The DNA of most bacteria is found in a single, circular chromosome, and is distributed throughout the cytoplasm rather than contained within a membrane-enclosed nucleus. Though some bacteria can cause food poisoning and infectious diseases in humans, most are harmless and many are beneficial. They are used in various industrial processes, especially in the food industry (for example, in the production of yogurt, cheeses, and pickles).

Nails - what size(s) to use for light frame construction?
I'm fixing to do some light wood frame construction. From what I can find, 16d nails seem to be the nails I need. I've done some building of things before and used various nails, but never paid attention to what is correct.
I don't have a nail gun so I will most likely be driving every one of these by hand. I see that cement coated is easier to drive. I'm just not sure what I need.
3.5" nails seem like a good size, but I don't think those will work when nailing two 2x4s together for instance. With a combined board cross section thickness of 3" (1.5+1.5) I would have .5" of nail sticking out the back side. I know this isn't right is it?
On the other hand, a 3.5" nail seems okay for toe nailing or other nailing situations where I might need the extra length.
I was told once that a general rule of thumb was to use a nail 3x's the thickness of the thinner piece of wood being joined by the nails.
When doubling 2x members, I like to use 12s and clench the nail point over to pinch the boards. 16s tend to do alot of splitting. 8s are my fastener of choice for toe nailing studs, for instance.
Check out pages 2-4 of chapter six:
16d splitting depends on the hardness of the wood and whether or not you are at the end of a stud. at the ends, do your best to nail across different grains, as opposed to the nail being parallel to the board; that pretty well guarantees a split at the end of a stud. you can always drill the end of the board, too, but that is an obvious pita and an emergency deal. if nailing two studs together, angle the nail instead of going straight across. it will hold better, too, esp if you alternate the direction in which you nail.

I have waist length long straight hair. It's not easy to put my hair in a bun....until I got these in a swag bag one year at Toronto Fashion Week, 3 years ago.
Guess what? I am still using the same pair of spin pins (I call them hair screws), every night. :-)
The easiest way to use this if you have long hair is to put your hair hair into a pony tail, but the last twist of your elastic band, make a loop in your hair (instead of pulling all of your hair straight through), then wrap the remaining pony take around that loop of hair, and screw one pin into the side where you finished wrapping, and then another screw into the opposite side of that pin (but don't have the screws touching each other). It will make one very firm holding bun that lasts all day.
If I am only holding my hair up at night to do my skincare routine, I usually just use 1 screw and it does the trick. I mean I have over 2 feet of hair.....so these Spin Pins "screws" are really amazing.

Utter Confusion
Ara jumped when he felt the girl hug him. He looked down, about to ask her what she was doing, when a second figure entered the room. It took one look at him and turned ashen white, stammering:
"W..what are you?"
Ara jumped, an involuntary snarl escaping him as he spotted the new arrival.
"What do you think I am, a rabbit? You can see clearly what I am." he snapped sarcastically.
The human took several steps backwards, evidently scared by Ara's agressive snapping. Ara glared at it, he'd had enough of having to face off opponents and was, by now, not only edgy but very confused.
Forcing himself to keep calm, he looked down at the girl hanging onto him and cocked his head to one side in a bemused expression. What the heck had suddenly inspired her to hug him like that?
And, more confusing still, what in the baka was a Beba?

At the end of 1993, the only location left for DJ Mac Cormik to celebrate into 1994 was the Weltspiele. It was the first time tat he mingled with the Techno and Trance scene which gave him a lot of pleasure and excitement. He was surprised how many people were still dancing and celebrating that early in the morning and he soon accompanied the partycrowd on the dance floor to dance to the pumping beats. At this time, DJ Mac Cormik spent many hours at the turntables with the headliner DJs.

Robert Snodgrass scored twice in three second-half minutes as Leeds United paid a moving tribute to former player Gary Speed, who died last Sunday.Snodgrass opened Leeds' account with a stunning 62nd-minute free-kick that gave Steve Mildenhall no chance in the Millwall goal.Barely three minutes later Mildenhall was picking the ball out of his net for a second time when he was unable to prevent Snodgrass' header from a Lloyd Sam delivery crossing the line, despite getting a hand to the ball.Prior to kick-off Lions boss Kenny Jackett and his Leeds counterpart Simon Grayson along with former players Gordon Strachan, David Batty and Gary McAllister laid wreaths on the pitch following a video montage and minute's applause for Speed, who played in United's 1992 title-winning side.It was difficult to tell whether the sheer weight of emotion surrounding the occasion had an effect on both teams, but the game was, for long spells, forgettable as a spectacle.What could not be doubted was the high esteem with which one of United's favourite sons was held by the Elland Road faithful.Speed's name was chanted for 11 minutes from the 11th minute in recognition of his shirt number, the sound reverberating around all four sides of Leeds' famous old ground.It was Millwall though, who conjured up the best scoring chance of the opening half when Darius Henderson, back in the side along with skipper Paul Robinson, saw his goalbound header from a Liam Feeney corner pushed away at full stretch by home keeper Alex McCarthy."We had the best chance of the first half," said Lions boss Kenny Jackett, "But their keeper made a good save from Darius Henderson.Once the first goal went in for Leeds though, the atmosphere stepped up and it was very difficult for us.It was tough for us to come here today and get a result. We did well for an hour, but after they scored their first, and then second quickly, we didn't quite have enough to test Leeds."United, lost midfielders Johnny Howson and Michael Brown to injuries before the break, with Brown inexplicably avoiding punishment for an awful challenge on Liam Trotter, as did Snodgrass for a crude tackle on the tireless Jimmy Abdou after just five minutes.Despite having to shuffle their playing pack, Leeds looked a little more dangerous in the final third, with sub Andy Keogh's header well held by Mildenhall and then Lloyd Sam volleying high and wide from a couple of yards following a deep delivery from the left.Winger Snodgrass finally broke the deadlock when he curled a sublime free-kick from 25 yards past Mildenhall and into the top right corner.Three minutes later he doubled the lead, timing his run to meet Sam's right-wing cross to perfection and heading home Leeds' second of the game.Hamer Bouazza and then James Henry entered the fray for The Lions, but it was Mildenhall who was the busier of the two keepers, producing fine reflex saves to deny both Luciano Becchio and then Sam late on.At the other end Henry drove straight into keeper McCarthy's hands and before sub Darren Ward's header was comfortably collected by the keeper in injury-time."It's been a difficult week for everyone here," said Leeds boss Grayson. "It was so fitting that we won this game and that everyone realised just what Gary Speed contributed to football."Leeds United: McCarthy, Connolly, Kisnorbo, Brown (Keogh, 40mins), Becchio, Howson (Sam, 36mins), Clayton, Pugh, Lees, Snodgrass, White.

De Anza College has long been committed to student equity and success. The Student Success and Support Program-Student Equity Advisory Committee works to implement these two state mandates at the college.
In 2013, the Chancellor's Office convened a Student Equity Workgroup to review and update the student equity planning process, ensuring that each college identifies strategies to address and monitor equity issues as well as to mitigate disproportionate impact on student access and achievement. Student equity planning focuses on increasing access, course completion, ESL and basic skills completion, degrees, certificates and transfer for all students as measured by success indicators linked to the CCC Student Success Scorecard.
The Student Success Act of 2012 (SB 1456), now known as the Student Success and Support Program (SSSP), is the first step to begin implementation of Student Success Task Force recommendations. This bill provides a policy framework that targets funding to the core matriculation services of orientation, assessment, counseling and advising, and development of education plans. The bill re-names the Matriculation program as the Student Success and Support Program. Implementation began in fall 2014.

Thank you for the kind words Eckhouse, and just for the record, I am already a slave to the voice that tells me what to write; the many voices.
I will begin with a ficlet, An Exciting Turn of Events, that shows Eckhouse's purely amazing writing ability:
"Yeah, seatbelt," he responded. He let the gun and badge slip to the floor mat, reaching over his shoulder to grab the buckle. As soon as it clicked home, she stood on the brake pedal and lurched the wheel to the left.
The Galaxie was a fine automotive specimen. Despite years of use for family picnics and sending kids off to college in, it had power and it had balance. Not surprisingly, then, its rear end whipped around easily in a screaming cloud of worn rubber smoke.
"The hell?" he gasped.
"Saw this in a movie," she leered, pinning the accelerator to the floor. Two black-and-whites were heading straight for them in a fury of light and sound.
He didn't have much time to think. He did have time, however, to watch the slow motion ballet of two cop cars diverting around the Galaxie's hood, leaving enough room for one to shoot right past his window and nick the mirror. Once the commotion of the moment had passed, he was better able to hear his own squealing.
She eyed him quizzically. "Seriously?"
This series unfortunately died after a few more ficlets, but while it lasted, I soaked up every word. The characters were beautiful and as you can see, Eckhouse further developed them in his brilliant sequel. This is just one of the stories that Eckhouse has contibuted to that was absolutely fantastic.
Besides my personal favorite, Eckhouse's Ask the Wonderball was featured on ficlets and was actually the first ficlet I ever read, I now recall. It seemed like any other piece of writing at first, but the incredible twist at the end made it quite the haunting work. That ficlet made a lasting impression on me. I might even admit to being a little jealous of all the amazing authors I found on the site and their unique writing abilities, Eckhouse being one of those authors. Ask the Wonderball recieved loads of praise along with mulitple sequels and prequels, obviously meaning that everyone wanted to build on the splendid story.
I reccomend anything Eckhouse writes, and that is how I will summarize this branch.
I have chosen to tag JoyceFreedom and Poozzab, both of whom are fantastic writers. I completed an incredibly adorable series with Freedom, and have worked on a couple of series with Poozzab, one of which was a successful finished product.

The story of a man raised in a world of one extreme causing him to jettison his life over to the opposite in an attempt to take over the world and flip the switch on humanity back into survival mode.
Inspired by the short "Harrison Bergeron" by Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
This is going to be controversial- I am not writing this to reflect my own views. Please do not send me hateful messages about your inherited genetics causing glaucoma, cancer, low intelligence quotient, etc.
It's 1072 d.e. (6342 a.d.) and the human race has declined. Civilization took away the need to survive based on physical attributes, causing blindness, obesity, diabetes, and many other genetic maladies to become common in the general populace. Civil rights movements for the mentally handicapped, criminal, and insane to reproduce for the sake of it had caused a drop in the average I.Q., from a general average of 100 to 76.
The world follows the adequate leadership of Doctor Riesen, a man considered a genius with an I.Q. of 96, an athlete at 200 pounds and 5 feet 4 inches without a wheel chair, and a hero for the "Ries Movement," a new motion passed requiring all public areas to be equipped with seers (people with almost 20/20 vision) available to escort the rest of the population to where they needed to go. It was a trumped up taxi service requiring all who were able to see well enough to drive to pander to the needs of those who couldn't. Walking was out of the question, since most people were overweight or had lived lifestyles in which using their legs had been discouraged.
Of course, there were exceptions to the rule. The exceptionally intelligent and physically fit few kept to themselves, grouping up in the shadows and underground on rare meetings used to attend elite classes to exercise their minds and to discuss their future and ways to keep the better genetics alive. They called themselves the Fitness Faction and answered to a man who's codename was Hawk Ochre, the tallest, strongest, smartest of all of them, and his wife Falcon Ochre, his second in command and his equal in almost every way.

Hello everyone,
I am new to A/V equipment. I recently purchased a Panasonic 55" VT60 and love it. I'm looking to upgrade my audio now to a decent 3.1 system with a budget of under $2k. Right now I'm using an old Sony HTIB and It's just not cutting it. I will be replacing everything including receiver. I am only going with a 3.1 system because of an odd shaped room. I want to be able to upgrade later though so I'm looking for a 7.2 channel receiver with Bluetooth and 3d compatibility. I would like a nice pair of tower speakers, center and a sub.
I have started a list that I thought would be a decent set up but I keep looking around at other speakers and cant make up my mind. Below is my list I have started, please let me know if there is anything you would change or upgrade.
Onkyo TX-NR626 7.2-Channel Network Audio/Video Receiver
Infinity Primus P363 Three-way dual 6-1/2-Inch Floorstanding Speaker
Infinity Primus PC351 Three-way dual 5-1/4-Inch Center Speaker
Klipsch RW12D 12-inch Reference Subwoofer
I have also been looking at all Klipsch speakers but they may blow the budget. With the components I have selected here the price comes in at just under $1500.
Please let me if you have any experience with any of these pieces good or bad, or if you would change anything. Thanks in advanced for any input.
Check out Fry's electric... They have had the ip p363 for 100 dollars per speaker recently!
Looks good to me, very high bang for the buck setup. Some changes I might contemplate is upgrade the receiver to the Denon AVR-2313CI, it's only $100 more and it has a more powerful version of Audyssey and a more powerful amplifier. Another change I would make is either double up on the Klipsch subwoofer or try to get a B-stock Outlaw Audio LFM-1 EX here for $600, while they are still available. Dual RW-12ds will get you a more even response throughout the room and a more consistent bass sound, but the Outlaw will get you some very deep bass, well below 20 hz, to the limit of human perception. Another advantage of the Outlaw is you could get a matching Outlaw later for both even, smooth bass and extreme deep frequencies.
You dont sound too far off track... Have you listened to these? Do you like the speakers? I normally recommend Arx in that price range... I heard them... Superior sound for that price.
I also recommend Klipsch allot if you like the way they sound.... Reason is they are extremely popular so you can pick up a set 50% or more off list as b stock or used.
Thanks for the suggestions guys. I'll check out that sub and the other receiver. I have not had a chance to listen to any of the speakers yet. I'll make it a point to check out a couple stores.
I looked at these speakers on frys and they wanted $329.99 each! Sounds crazy to me.
Thanks again for the input.
Amazon has the Primus speaker line on sale.
ARX is another great recommendation.
The arx speakers, are we talking about the A3c or A5? The A5's are a little pricey but the reviews are pretty good. Are the A3's good as well? What would be a good center to match with them?
The center speaker you want for either the A3 or A5 is the A2c. The problem is the A2c is out of stock with an indeterminate restock date. This is why I can't recommend and Arx set at the moment, because they don't know when their own center is going to be available. However you could use an A1 as a center if you have the space for a vertical center speaker.
The A1b single bookshelf works as a vertical or horizontal center. The planar tweeter can be rotated for horizontal use.
The A3c would work with either the A1b center or A2c center. The A3c is a 2.5way tower, top portion is just an A1b and the bottom woofer is for extra bass. The A1b would work fine with the A5 tower a few users are using it that way.
Arx A5 fronts and A1b center would be around $1000-1100 depending on your shipping options (which you can add everything to the cart and get real time quote) and that would leave enough for a SVS PB12 NSD, HSU VTF3Mk or PSA XV30 and come in a few hundred under your budget.
Thanks for the suggestions. I'll look into those subs but, add a receiver and I'd be quite a bit over budget.
Oh I forgot about you having a receiver in that budget too. Maybe 3 Arx A1b bookshelfs across the front $540. Rythmik LV12R subwoofer $589 http://www.rythmikaudio.com/LV12R.html http://www.hometheatershack.com/forums/speaker-subwoofer-reviews/67309-rythmik-lv12r-subwoofer-review.html
