You may have heard of Pligg before, many times referred to as the digg-clone (open source modular content management system).Yesterday they celebrated their one year anniversary and have released their Beta 9 with a huge list of new features, and a great new look. Previously, their design was nothing to brag about. The new Pligg has adopted a user-submitted theme which makes the new version look pretty slick, and really adds a lot to the site. So, here are some of the new features in the Beta 9:
- Added a module system to easily delete features you don't want
- RSS Importer
- Category Manager- allows for sub-categories
- Table prefixes
- 5 Star Rating System
- Administrators can edit story URL
- "Read more" link in story summaries
- Added avatars to "who voted for this story"
- Added discarded PHP to easily view discarded stories
New Modules:
- Private messaging
- Google Adsense Revenue Sharing
- Embedded video for Google, Youtube, and Xoinks
- Basic version checking
- Site statistics
- Random story
- Ajax contact form
The new Google Adsense Revenue Sharing module is particularly interesting because it gives people an incentive to submit stories. I can only imagine what Digg would be like if they implemented something similar.
Users may add an Adsense ID and Adsense Channel (optional) to their account settings. If they set they're Adsense ID, from that point forward, every time a story they posted is viewed, there's a chance their ads are displayed. The optional Adsense Channel allows the user to track how many impressions and clicks their ads are getting through their Adsense account. You set the default revenue share percent for all users while implementing the mod, but after that, you may adjust any user's revenue sharing percent through the user administration menu.
Check out their new demo site which shows off the new theme along with the new features. The embedded videos right within the post make a huge difference, and really stand out. Similar to Digg, you can view the top stories from today, yesterday, this week, and this month. Pligg also goes beyond categorizing posts, and also lets you tag them. Pligg is definitely worth checking out as it appears to be a viable platform that could be used to compete with Digg.

Madison, MS (Sports Network) - Daniel Summerhays fired a 9-under-par 63 on Thursday and grabbed the lead at the Sanderson Farms Championship before the first round was suspended due to inclement weather.
Summerhays had seven birdies and an eagle at Annandale Golf Club to hit the clubhouse with the lead before heavy rain and lightning descended upon the course. The entire afternoon group was unable to finish and players will restart the first round Friday at 8 a.m. ET.
"You have to enjoy these moments," said Summerhays, who is coming off a tie for fourth at the John Deere Classic. "Sometimes we take good golf for granted and you forget how hard this game is. It can be a really hard game, so I'm just soaking it in. I'm really excited about where my game is at and I'm looking forward to getting back into the swing of things on the weekend and testing myself again."
Will Claxton, Michael Bradley and Jonathan Randolph are tied for second place after carding matching, opening-round 66s, while Bill Lunde, Dicky Pride, Skip Kendall, Peter Lonard, D.J. Trahan, Chad Campbell and Donald Constable share fifth at 5-under 67.
Rory Sabbatini and Jeff Overton are in the clubhouse at 4-under 68 and Kevin Kisner is minus-4 through six first-round holes.
Summerhays was in position to secure his first career PGA Tour victory last week after firing a third-round 62 to grab the 54-hole lead. But he tripped to a 72 in the final round and finished one stroke out of a three-way playoff, which Jordan Spieth won to earn a spot in the British Open.
The 29-year-old began on the 10th tee Thursday and again worked his way to the top of the leaderboard.
He didn't drop a shot during the first round, picking up a pair of birdies over his first eight holes before eagling the par-5 18th with a 17-footer from the fringe of the green.
"I definitely got things going with that eagle on 18," he said. "That was nice."
Around the turn, Summerhays birdied five of the next seven holes to reach 9- under, then parred Nos. 8 and 9 to hold on to the lead.
"You take all the positives," Summerhays said of last week's performance. "I shot 18-under par for 72 holes and was standing on the 18th fairway with a chance to win the golf tournament. That can only breed confidence. ... When you're driving the ball well and hitting your wedges well and feel like you can make almost any putt, it's a really fun game. I was really excited to come play this morning."
NOTES: This tournament is being played opposite the British Open Championship in Scotland ... Play was stopped at 3:01 p.m. ET. Tournament officials initially scheduled a restart at 6:20 p.m. ET, but they were forced to suspend play when conditions failed to improve ... In 2009, this tournament was canceled after heavy rain drenched the course for five consecutive days ... Ryan Blaum recorded a hole-in-one at the par-3 15th.

Holders Juventus will meet bitter rivals Inter Milan in the Coppa Italia semi-finals after winning 1-0 at Lazio on Wednesday.
Stephan Lichtsteiner scored the only goal in the 66th minute, slotting the rebound toward the bottom right corner after Simone Zaza's effort struck the left post.
Lazio goalkeeper Etrit Berisha pushed away the ball but it had already crossed the line.
Berisha had kept his side in the match, diving smartly to keep out a Paul Pogba snapshot in the first half.
He also denied Alvaro Morata with his leg in the 51st minute with Zaza firing the follow-up into the side-netting with the goal gaping.
Meanwhile, in the league, Sassuolo drew 1-1 with Torino to move level on points with AC Milan in sixth place.

New regulations to help DIMS industry
Hon Craig Foss
Minister of
16 June 2014 Media Statement
New regulations to help DIMS industry
Commerce Minister Craig Foss today announced changes to the regulation of discretionary investment management services (DIMS) to ensure investors are well protected and the regulatory regime works for smaller players.
DIMS include any service where the provider decides which financial products to buy or sell on behalf of their client, without having to get their client's agreement to the transaction.
"The introduction of a strong regulatory regime is part of the Government's Business Growth Agenda and aims to promote confident and informed participation in New Zealand's financial markets," Mr Foss says.
"These changes will reduce the risks to investors by ensuring they are able to make decisions based on sound information.
"They will also make DIMS licensing more accessible for smaller providers, such as many financial adviser businesses. The base fee for a DIMS licence will decrease by 40 per cent from $3565 to $2139.
"It's very important that all participants in this sector are able to realise the opportunities provided by the passing of the Financial Markets Conduct Act," Mr Foss says.
The Financial Markets Authority is releasing a guide on the application process to help smaller financial adviser businesses with the licensing process.
Other key regulatory changes include:
• Alignment of the requirements for DIMS under the Financial Advisers Act 2008 with those that will apply to other DIMS providers under the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013.
• An exemption for financial advisers who only manage their clients' investments in limited situations, such as when they are on holiday.
• A transition period for existing DIMS providers, allowing them until 1 June 2015 to apply for a licence and until 1 December 2015 to update their client documentation. New providers will need to comply from 1 December 2014.
The Cabinet paper and regulatory impact statement can be found at:

CHENGDU, China — China accused the Dalai Lama on Sunday of stoking Tibetan unrest to sabotage the Beijing Olympics and also berated House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, saying she is ignoring the truth about Tibet.
This month's violence in Tibet and neighboring provinces has turned into a public relations disaster for China ahead of the August Olympics, which it had been hoping to use to bolster its international image.
The Chinese government said through official media that formerly restive areas were under control and accused the Dalai Lama, a Nobel Peace Prize winner, of trying to harm China's image.
"The Dalai clique is scheming to take the Beijing Olympics hostage to force the Chinese government to make concessions to Tibet independence," said the People's Daily.
The Tibetan spiritual leader called the accusations against him "baseless," asserting that he supported China's hosting of the Summer Games.
"I always support (that) the Olympics should … take place in Beijing … so that more than 1-billion human beings, that means Chinese, they feel proud of it," he said Sunday in New Delhi.
Pelosi's visit to the Dalai Lama in Dharmsala, India, on Friday was the first by a major foreign official since the protests broke out. The Democratic leader said if people don't speak out against China's oppression in Tibet, "we have lost all moral authority to speak on behalf of human rights anywhere in the world."
China's official Xinhua News Agency published commentary Sunday accusing Pelosi of ignoring the violence caused by the Tibetan rioters.
Pelosi spokesman Drew Hammill said Sunday that Pelosi condemns the Chinese government's crackdown in Tibet and calls on it "to begin a substantive dialogue and to allow journalists and independent monitors into Tibet to find out the truth."


text: ELIQUIS increases the risk of bleeding and can cause serious, potentially fatal bleeding. Please see additional Important Safety Information included in this release."With a population that is living longer, the prevalence of nonvalvular atrial fibrillation is increasing, but many patients are still not being managed effectively with warfarin," said Christopher Granger, M.D., Professor of Medicine, Duke Clinical Research Institute, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, N.C., ARISTOTLE lead investigator. "ELIQUIS represents a significant advance over warfarin for health care professionals to reduce the risk of stroke in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation." ELIQUIS is an oral Factor Xa inhibitor anticoagulant. By inhibiting Factor Xa, a key blood clotting protein, ELIQUIS decreases thrombin generation and blood clot formation. ELIQUIS does not require routine monitoring using International Normalized Ratio (INR) or other tests of coagulation and there are no known dietary restrictions. ELIQUIS can be taken with or without food. ELIQUIS is expected to be widely available in the U.S. by the end of January 2013. Efficacy and Safety Profile of ELIQUIS in Patients with Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation The ARISTOTLE (Apixaban for Reduction in Stroke and Other Thromboembolic Events in Atrial Fibrillation) study was designed to compare the effects of ELIQUIS and warfarin on the risk of stroke and systemic embolism. In ARISTOTLE, 18,201 patients were randomized (9,120 patients to ELIQUIS and 9,081 to warfarin) and were followed for a median of 1.7 years. ARISTOTLE was a double-blind, multi-national trial in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation, and one or more of the following additional risk factors for stroke: prior stroke or transient ischemic attack, prior systemic embolism, age ≥75 years, arterial hypertension requiring treatment, diabetes mellitus, heart failure ≥New York Heart Association Class 2, or left ventricular ejection fraction ≤40%. Patients received treatment with ELIQUIS 5 mg orally twice daily (or 2.5 mg twice daily in patients with at least 2 of the following characteristics: age ≥80 years, body weight ≤60 kg, or serum creatinine ≥1.5 mg/dL) or warfarin (target INR range 2.0-3.0).


text: Mine safety chief blames high toll on calendar By Ken Ward Jr. December 9, 2006 Story Share ARLINGTON, Va. — In a business tower across the Potomac River from the nation's capitol, the corner office reserved for the country's top mine safety regulator provides a commanding view of suburban Washington.But the office's new occupant, West Virginia native Richard Stickler, hardly seems to notice."I don't have time to look out the windows," Stickler tells a visitor who tries to take in the sights.Stickler admits he's got his work cut out for him.As the Jan. 2 anniversary of the Sago Mine disaster approaches, the coal industry is closing out its deadliest year in more than a decade.Through Friday, 46 coal miners had died in mining accidents nationwide, the most since 47 were killed in 1995. West Virginia leads the nation with 23 mining deaths, the most in the state since 28 miners died on the job in 1981."It's been a disastrous year," Stickler said during a 90-minute interview last week.In the coalfields and on Capitol Hill, pressure continues for improvements to stop the death toll. Calls for reform will no doubt increase next month, when Democrats take over control of both houses of Congress.Stickler acknowledges the pressure, but says it is a good thing for the agency he now leads, the U.S. Department of Labor's Mine Safety and Health Administration."The reason for the scrutiny isn't good, but the scrutiny will help improve the safety and health program," Stickler said. "It's something that should create a sense of urgency."Stickler is also cautions against making too much of this year's spike in deaths, especially because it followed a record-low of 22 deaths in 2005.If the Sago disaster had occurred a few days earlier, in 2005, it would have made that year's death count 34, about average for the last decade or so, Stickler said."If you move Sago up two days, then in 2005 we have just an average year and 2006 would have been just an average year," he said."Mine safety doesn't see a calendar," Stickler said. "It doesn't know what year it is or what day it is."In late October, Stickler took over for David G. Dye, who had been running MSHA as acting assistant secretary since Dave D. Lauriski resigned shortly after George W. Bush won re-election. Bush originally nominated Stickler in September 2005, but the move received little attention until four months later, when 12 miners died at Sago.Congressional Democrats and the United Mine Workers union jumped to oppose Stickler, and his nomination was sent back to the White House twice without his being confirmed by the Senate.The Marion County native spent about 30 years working for coal companies, primarily as a mine manager for Bethlehem Steel's coal arm. He worked briefly for Massey Energy, and then became chief of Pennsylvania's Bureau of Deep Mine Safety. Today, Stickler shrugs off opposition to his nomination and offers a lengthy defense of the safety performance at mines he managed for Bethlehem."A lot of that is just politics, and some of it is rooted in a lack of factual information," Stickler said. "I know the facts. I know the truth, so I don't let the politics bother me."Stickler says that the safety performance at two Bethlehem mines he managed — where poor records have been cited by the media and his opponents — improved greatly during his tenure. "People say, 'Oh, he managed a mine that was worse than the national average,' but they don't tell you the rest of the story," Stickler said.Stickler says he ended up at Massey only because the Richmond, Va.-based coal giant bought Bethlehem's Eagles Nest Mine near Van when he was managing it.Stickler declined to comment for the record on the safety practices he saw at Massey, or on the company's overall safety record over the years. But he said the state's report on the January fire at the company's Aracoma Alma No. 1 mine — still under investigation by MSHA — was disturbing."The conditions that existed are not reflective of a mine that is being properly managed in the area of safety," he said.On Friday, Stickler visited West Virginia to tour a Webster County coal preparation plant operated by Brooks Run Mining.In a news release, MSHA noted that the facility won a prestigious Sentinels of Safety Award in 2005 for having no reportable accidents during its employees' 122,000 hours worked that year. But in 2004, two Brooks Run miners were killed in a five-week period, one at the preparation plant Stickler visited and another at a nearby underground mine. MSHA cited the company in both deaths, and Brooks Run paid a total of $66,000 in fines."They had those two fatalities, and they made a commitment that they were going to do something drastically different," Stickler said during a Friday afternoon visit to the Gazette-Mail newsroom. "Obviously, this company has made a commitment to safety. That's the way they're running their business."Stickler, 62, grew up in Barrackville, just northwest of Fairmont. His father was a miner, and he watched his grandfather die of black lung.In 1961, Stickler was captain of the Barrackville High School basketball team that won 27 games in a row, including the state championship.Stickler worked underground, and was on the job in an adjacent mine in 1968 when an explosion at Consolidation Coal's No. 9 Mine at Farmington killed 78 workers."Some of my high school friends and some of my friends' relatives were killed at that mine," Stickler said. "I remember the grief and the suffering."Stickler continued working underground on the night shift, and attended Fairmont State College during the day. He completed an engineering degree, and moved up into mine management.Stickler says he's working to mend fences with some of his opponents, having met recently with labor unions that represent miners across the country.When asked why MSHA hasn't updated families of the Sago victims recently on its disaster investigation, Stickler said he wasn't aware of the problem and promised to set up a meeting.But Stickler also recently declined to meet with widows of the miners killed in the May 20 Kentucky Darby disaster and other families of fallen Kentucky miners, saying he wanted to hold off until MSHA finishes its Darby investigation.Stickler says MSHA is still working on plans for creating an agency liaison with families of miners killed on the job, a post mandated by Congress as part of the mine safety legislation passed earlier this year.Stickler hesitates to criticize the way Lauriski ran MSHA, noting that "it's always easy to be a Monday morning quarterback" and that "everyone has a different way of looking at things."So far, Stickler is more likely than Lauriski to say anything critical of the industry he regulates, but he also insists that only a small portion of that industry consistently violates safety rules.Stickler promised that his agency would begin to take stronger enforcement action against that "very small percentage" of renegade operators."The big picture is that the biggest problem is a lack of compliance with the laws we have on the books," Stickler says.During his confirmation hearing in late January, Stickler was pressed to explain if that meant MSHA was not properly enforcing the law."I wouldn't call it an enforcement problem," Stickler told lawmakers.""... Compliance is when you have operators — in some cases, a small percentage of operators will try to comply with the law when MSHA is at the job site, but that is the only time they try to comply with the law. And that is what I mean by a compliance problem."Stickler also says that the concept of mine safety "compliance assistance" is important and has been widely misunderstood."It doesn't mean that you don't enforce the law," he said. "It means you help people to comply with the law."Stickler says one of his priorities is the hiring, training and deployment of 170 new coal-mine inspectors, a move that will help rebuild an inspector force drastically downsized by Bush administration budget cuts.As for future budgets, Stickler said he would ask for more money, but that such decisions would not be his to make."It's up to the president to propose a budget, and it's up to Congress to approve a budget," he said."There's a limit on those resources, but I will not hesitate to ask for additional resources."Stickler said his visits with MSHA personnel around the country have confirmed early rumors he heard about staff morale problems."Their morale has been hurt by the events of this year, but we can't let that get us down," he said."We have to pick ourselves up and identify the things that will prevent recurrences."

GPS Options: Many Ways to Find Your Way
In-Dash Car Navigation
If you're considering buying a new car, you may have the option of specifying a factory installed, "in-dash" navigation system. Those big screens are attractive, but they're expensive and they don't age well.
Many navigation systems are sold only as part of an option package that may cost between $2000 and $5000. Also, in many systems, all of the maps and points of interest reside on a DVD; upgrading the data typically costs more than buying a good dedicated GPS device would.
GPS technology is advancing so fast that, in four years, today's state-of-the-art navigation system will likely be a dinosaur at trade-in time.
Still, in-dash units have several advantages, including larger screen size, superior reliability, and more-secure installation in your car. They offer tight integration with an in-car Bluetooth speakerphone, storage capacity for your music, and voice-recognition controls. They may also tie in to the car's speed and direction sensors, ensuring that you'll retain basic navigation functions even if you lose your satellite connection.
Another option is to buy an aftermarket in-dash system, though such systems usually require professional installation.

Coming Soon To A 'Hood Near You: Gitmo (Ex?)Terrorists
By James Gordon Meek
NY Daily News
How would you like your family's next-door neighbor to be a former Guantanamo Bay inmate who was trained in a military camp in pre-9/11 Afghanistan? Would it matter if they were declared no longer to be an "enemy combatant" by the Pentagon?
That's the fundamental question that ought to be going through the minds of Northern Virginia residents this week, amid news reports - including our own Daily News exclusive today - that a group from Gitmo may soon be making house in the D.C. suburbs.
Officials tell The News the ethnic Turk Muslims from China, known as Uyghurs, will be settled in a Uyghur community in Fairfax, Va. - if Team Obama gives the thumbs up.
While Republicans have unarguably been making political hay out of this news - as well as the release of the Bush-era "torture memos" and President Obama's plan to close Gitmo by January - they are indeed representing the views of many counterterror officials by objecting strenuously to plans to resettle a half-dozen former detainees in the D.C. suburbs.
"There are people in the intelligence community who are concerned about the Uyghurs from a security standpoint," Rep. Pete King (R-L.I.), ranking GOPer on the Homeland Security Committee, told The Mouth. "They have very real worries."
Counterterror officials who spoke to The Mouth this week expressed concern but no great alarm. Some see a greater threat than others. But at the core of the debate is that it's not entirely clear how connected the detainees were to a Uyghur terrorist group linked to Al Qaeda, the East Turkestan Islamic Movement, before they were nabbed after 9/11.
"How do you say for sure? You don't, and that's the problem," said one U.S. official briefed on contingency operations involving the Uyghur detainees.
Another matter is whether they grew into hardened jihadis during the seven years they've been held at Gitmo, though now in a minimally restrictive camp.
"You don't know what kind of radicalization happened down there," said Rep. Frank Wolf (R-Va.), whose district is the spot where U.S. officials are looking to relocate the Gitmo group.
Wolf and King complain Team Obama hasn't told them much. But other officials insist the members have been regularly briefed on Gitmo plans.
As the Daily News reported today, a sweeping security operation by the FBI and Homeland Security Department is in place to keep a watchful eye on the Uyghurs if they're released in Virginia. But Wolf said the costs to taxpayers of the surveillance will be high for a decade or more, during which time the Uyghurs may become determined to attack the Red Chinese government.
"Will they one day try to kill the Chinese ambassador?" Wolf wonders. "You'd have to do (surveillance) forever."
"We are not as much worried," said Alim Seytoff, general secretary of the Uyghur American Association in Washington. "If the Uyghurs (at Gitmo) are released, we will welcome them."

How the release of trace info on firearms could put police officers at risk
This was on the NRA-ILA information. This is not just police; but, private citizens as well. The anti-gunners are digging! :mad:
How the release of trace info on firearms could put police officers at risk | Commentary | Minnesota Public Radio News
It is amazing what people will say when they want to make money off the violation of Americans' privacy. In a report on Minnesota Public Radio by Brandt Williams, a source named Joe Vince was quoted as saying: "Tiahrt is, in simple terms, nuts." Vince, a retired ATF agent, is a partner in a consulting firm called Crime Gun Solutions, based in Frederick, Md. Apparently he wants the records of every private citizen who owns a firearm so he can use it to make money for his consulting company. Perhaps he chose the wrong line of work.
BATF&E gun trace data is a very mis-understood function. Unless you live in a slave state where there is gun registration, there is no way the ATF traces by themselves, can find anyone.
As a member of our county Major Crime Team, one of my duties from time-to-time during murder, or other major crime investigations, was to conduct ATF traces. By faxing an ATF questionnaire to the Firearms Trace Center, investigators are given only some information regarding the gun. Included is; where it was manufactured, when it was manufactured or imported, which distributor it was delivered to, and which retail outlet it was shipped to for sale. Period.
After that, it is up to the investigator to conduct old-fashioned police work, by visiting the FFL retailer and examine their 4473 books. From there, you know who initially purchased the firearm. Next the investigator finds the buyer, or tries to, if they are still alive and living at the same address they listed, to see if they still own the gun. More often than not, they don't. It was either stolen, or sold. There the trail goes cold.
Gun trace information is a red herring used by the anti-freedom, Brady Bunch. It is one of the so-called "reasonable gun safety regulations" so beloved by the leftists.
"Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom.
It is the argument of tyrants; It is the creed of slaves."
(William Pitt, House of Commons, November 1783.)

Please take the publication date into consideration for any date references. ] [ Media Contact: TPWD News, email@example.com, 512-389-8030 ] [AR] Jan. 30, 2008 TPW Commission Tables Proposed Consistency with Fed Regs on Red Snapper, Sharks AUSTIN, Texas -- The Texas Parks and Wildlife Commission agreed Jan. 23 to remove from consideration proposals to match proposed federal regulations on red snapper and sharks in the state's territorial sea. In a TPW Commission Regulations Committee hearing, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department Coastal Fisheries Division biologists recommended removing the red snapper consistency proposal -- to match regulations for federal waters beyond the 9-mile limit -- which would have changed the regulations in state waters to a two fish daily bag limit and a 122-day season. The current rules for red snapper in state waters -- a four-fish daily bag limit and 365-day season -- remain in effect. Larry McKinney, Ph.D., director of the Coastal Fisheries Division, told commissioners that the decision to recommend tabling the red snapper consistency proposal was a difficult one and involved a trade-off between biological and economic benefits. "If we match the federal regulations, it reduces the risk of not meeting long-term goals for the entire Gulf of Mexico. From a conservation standpoint it is an end we would wish to achieve," McKinney said. "And, certainly, from a law enforcement perspective, it would make it easier to enforce the regulations." On the other hand, McKinney said, recruitment of juvenile red snapper to the fishery in Texas waters has been steadily increasing -- most likely as a result of reduced shrimping effort and bycatch -- and biologists generally do not have a great deal of confidence in National Marine Fisheries Service population and modeling data for the species. Four scoping meetings held along the Gulf coast in December, 2007, generated approximately 495 comments, almost unanimously opposed to the consistency issue. Red snapper are a key target of Texas nearshore and offshore anglers and the fishery is a mainstay of many local coastal economies. The Coastal Conservation Association (CCA), a major partner with TPWD in red drum stock enhancement and other projects, favored state consistency with federal regulations, as did the Ocean Conservancy. The Recreational Fishing Alliance opposed consistency. " The CCA and the other organizations that are supporting the recommendation for consistency are to be commended for promoting the long term conservation of an important species in the Gulf. For us to make the recommendation to follow the federal regulations and drive a nail in the coffin of an important coastal fishery is very difficult," McKinney said. "Before we take that action we need better confidence about the conservation benefits that might be realized with the federal proposal, unfortunately at this time we just can't go there." Biologists did tell commissioners that the issue may need to be revisited later this year or next if new information comes to light or federal action requires it. Also tabled was a proposal to adopt a regulation on the taking of sharks in state waters that would mirror a forthcoming proposal from NMFS that when it was first discussed last fall would prohibit the taking of blacktip and bull sharks, among others. The final proposed federal regulation has not yet been published, and Coastal Fisheries biologists told commissioners they would like to wait and see what the final rule is before making a recommendation. Biologists recommended adopting a quota for the commercial catch of Gulf menhaden in state waters. TPWD Coastal Fisheries Division Science Director Robin Riechers described the move as a precautionary measure that basically limits the fishery at its current level. The total allowable catch from state waters would be set at 31,500,000 pounds. "This fishery has been managed on a sustainable basis for a long time," Riechers told commissioners. "The stock assessment completed in 2004 indicates no overfishing, and in bay and Gulf trawl samples, we're seeing increasing trends." The total menhaden harvest in the Gulf of Mexico is currently about 1.2 billion pounds per year, with about 3 percent of that from Texas waters between Galveston and Sabine Pass. Biologists described the fishery as "fairly clean," with about 1 percent bycatch by number and 1.2 percent by weight. Finally, Coastal Fisheries Division biologists told commissioners they would like to move forward with a voluntary saltwater guide certification program that focuses on safety and resource conservation. --- On the Net: TPWD Statewide Public Meeting Calendar: http://tpwd.texas.gov/business/feedback/meetings/statewide_hearings/ -30-

Rachael Ray - Sourdough Croutons
Recipe by mammafishy
This recipe orginally came with Rachael's San Fran-Caesar Salad. Since I make my own croutons now, I think this is by far my favorite. I usually double or triple the recipe, adjusting the herbs and seasoning to taste. (I don't triple the black pepper but usually leave it at 1 teaspoon and use about 1 c. parmesan cheese.) I also use any kind of bread that I have available...even hotdog or hamburger buns.) Using herbs from my garden I will use fresh thyme, parsley, rosemary, red and sweet basil and chives, chopped fine (all together or whatever I have on hand.) I am typing her orginal recipe, so adjust to your own taste. My grandkids will eat these just as a snack...enjoy!

Team GB manager Stuart Pearce is adamant he would never have taken the job if it meant being forced to select former England captain David Beckham.
Pearce unveiled his 18-man squad at Wembley and, as expected, there was no place for the Los Angeles Galaxy midfielder, though he remains on the standby list.
England Under-21s head coach Pearce insists his decisions were made purely on football grounds and is comfortable he has selected the strongest squad available in a bid to deliver gold at London 2012, with Craig Bellamy, Ryan Giggs and Micah Richards the manager's three allocated over-age picks.
"From the offset, I was given the opportunity to manage this team as I normally would manage - I look on form, fitness, availability of players, and in that respect I deemed this was the best squad available to take this squad on. It was as simple as that," said Pearce.
"I have got a vast amount of respect for David and what he has done for the bid process in bringing the Olympics here, David as a person and for what he has done as an international with England.
"But I have got a duty of care for everybody within the squad to pick, in my mind, the best possible squad.
"The only relevance I really have is footballing terms and have treated them all in the same manner.'' Pearce added: "I sat down with the (Football Association) chairman David Bernstein, some time before Christmas, when he offered me the opportunity to pick the squad.
"If at that stage he had said to me that certain individuals would have to be included I certainly wouldn't do that job. I don't know any manager worth their salt who would have.
"Right through this process I have had carte blanche to pick whatever players I deem proper.
"I do enough hours watching matches and I think I've done due diligence on all the players here.
"In regard to ticket sales, merchandising whatever, I am a football man and I pick solely on football ability.
"I have to back my opinion and that is what I have done.'' Ex-Manchester United and Real Madrid midfielder Beckham had indeed done much to help deliver the Games to London.
Pearce accepted the 37-year-old - whose last of his 115 England caps came in October 2009 - still possessed the hunger and "passion'' to deliver on the world stage.
l Squad: Jack Butland (Birmingham), Jason Steele (Middlesbrough); Ryan Bertrand (Chelsea), Steven Caulker (Tottenham), Craig Dawson (West Brom), Micah Richards (Manchester City), Neil Taylor (Swansea), James Tomkins (West Ham); Joe Allen (Swansea), Tom Cleverley (Manchester United), Jack Cork (Southampton), Ryan Giggs (Manchester United), Aaron Ramsey (Arsenal), Danny Rose (Tottenham), Scott Sinclair (Swansea); Craig Bellamy (Liverpool), Marvin Sordell (Bolton), Daniel Sturridge (Chelsea).

Rocking a Salamander uniform, Steinfeld is seen talking to Asa Butterfield's titular character as they eat in the dining room.
A new image from Gavin Hood's "Ender's Game" has been unveiled, providing a very first look at young actress Hailee Steinfeld as Petra Arkanian. Arranging her brown hair into a sleek bun, Steinfeld rocks a Salamander uniform as she sits in front of Asa Butterfield (who plays the titular character) in what appears to be a dining room. For those who are not familiar with Petra, she is the only girl in Salamander Army who befriends the titular character and becomes his reliable right hand.
Also featured in the still is Khylin Rhambo as Dink Meeker. He is seen sitting right next to Butterfield's Ender on the dining table. Moises Arias is additionally featured at the end of the table, starring as Bonzo Madrid.
"Ender's Game" is set in the near future where a hostile alien race (called the Formics) attacks the Earth. If not for the legendary heroics of International Fleet Commander, Mazer Rackham (Ben Kingsley), all would have been lost. In preparation for the next attack, the highly esteemed Colonel Graff (Harrison Ford) and the International Military are training only the best young children to find the future Mazer. Ender Wiggin, a shy, but strategically brilliant boy is pulled out of his school to join the elite.
Arriving at Battle School, Ender quickly and easily masters increasingly difficult war games, distinguishing himself and winning respect amongst his peers. Ender is soon ordained by Graff as the military's next great hope, resulting in his promotion to Command School. Once there, he's trained by Mazer Rackham, himself, to lead his fellow soldiers into an epic battle that will determine the future of Earth and save the human race.
The sci-fier will arrive in the U.S. theaters on November 1, 2013. Gavin Hood pens the script in addition to serving behind the lens.

Chip formation during drilling operation is greatly influenced by the cutting parameters such as cutting speed, feed rate, and drill geometry. However, not many studies have focused on the direct observation of the chip formation during high speed drilling. This paper investigates the effect of cutting speed and feed rate on the chip morphology during high speed drilling of aluminum-silicon alloys using carbide drill. Observation on the multiview characterization of the chips was carried out which includes free surface, back surface, and cross-section of top surface. Structure and shape alterations of the free and back surfaces were analyzed using a scanning electron microscope. Finally, different geometrical parameters of chip cross-section were measured in order to study the effect of cutting parameters on chip compression ratio and thrust force. It was found that increase in cutting speed significantly affects the chip morphology especially on the structure of free surface and cross-section of the chips. Results also showed that built-up edge on the rake face of tool played an important role on the formation of irregular pattern on the chip back surface.

An Irish victim of sexual abuse bluntly told a Vatican summit this morning that her experience of being ignored, and her suffering minimized, by church leaders caused "the final death of any respect" she once felt for ecclesial authority.
Marie Collins said there must be "acknowledgement and accountability for the harm and destruction that has been done to the life of victims and their families" before she and other victims can regain trust in the leadership of the Catholic church.
Collins made the remarks at a four-day summit on the sexual abuse crisis titled "Towards Healing and Renewal" being held at the Jesuit-run Gregorian University.

I don't think I've ever said this before in my life, but I'm saying it now: Towerfall: Ascension would be so much better if it had online multiplayer.
Don't get me wrong, it's still a good game, and in general, I can't stand playing games online. But online multiplayer seems like it would be such a perfect fit for the game — particularly at a point in the PS4's lifecycle where it hasn't yet achieved total ubiquity — it's baffling that it's not there.
To back up a little, so that the preceding two paragraphs have a little more context: Towerfall: Ascension is a decidedly retro game in every aspect. Old-school graphics, simple combat, chiptune music…honestly, this is one of the few retro-inspired games that truly brings me back to being a young kid playing NES.
With this dedication to the retro aesthetic comes two less-fantastic features: a hard-as-nails level of difficulty, and local-only multiplayer. These two things, of course, are intertwined. Judging from my experience with the 1-2 player mode — I'll admit right now that I wasn't able to play the 2-4 player mode, since I only have one controller — this game is freaking difficult, and it really seems like it would be easier to handle if you've got a second person playing with you. Since I imagine that most (or at least a substantial minority of) PS4 owners only have one controller, the option to play Towerfall: Ascension online seems like it would've had an amazingly positive impact — and made it a little easier to boot.
That said, while the game would've been improved by such an addition, it's not like it really suffers from the absence of it. Towerfall: Ascension is still wonderful, and I say that as someone who was thoroughly terrible at it. As I said, this feels like an NES game, but a really great NES game. The combat — jumping around a dungeon, shooting arrows at enemies and stomping on their heads — is addictively simple, unburdened by hard-to-learn mechanics. What's more, even if the game is insanely hard, it's got the same feeling of being difficult-but-relatively-fair that a lot of the best games from the late '80s had.
Still, I'd only recommend buying it if you happen to have a second PS4 controller lying around — it's just that designed for local multiplayer. Then again, if you're looking for a game that single-handedly justifies the purchase of a second controller, Towerfall: Ascension is probably it.

This is a series of family photos taken by a Mr.E.A. Ife, mostly in the 1920s. They lived in Cassio Road, Watford, and Mr. Ife ran the 'Post Office Savings Club Photographic Society' from there. a simply amazing set of photos from the collection of Mike / Abaraphobia all photographs…
hila has been sharing some great old family photos lately, so i couldn't resist dipping into my own collection. some background info: i have three older brothers. i'll refer to them as brothers no. 1, 2 & 3 – because it's easier that way. mom as a tyke: dad as…
Mamma's Day
it's mother's day here on sunday. my mom is on a photography trip on the other side of the world where she will be gallivanting through the english countryside, so there will be no chance for me to lavish her with flowers and cups of tea. my mom doesn't like eating sweet…
You give us those nice bright colors, you give us the greens of summers / Makes you think all the world's a sunny day, oh yeah! / I got a Nikon camera , I love to take a photograph / So Mama, don't take my Kodachrome away makes me smile…
family archive
these are the most remarkable vintage photos i have seen in a while. they are from dasha's flickr, showing her family in the seventies. the colours!
put a bird on it
i grew up with birds. we had many a budgie, and my mom went through a phase where she bred parrots. so you know, angry african greys were the norm in my house. the one parrot we had perfectly imitated my mom calling me when i was on the other…
i have had a lot to give thanks for recently, so even though we don't celebrate thanksgiving i'll be giving it a polite nod and hope all of you in the states have a great time with your families.

Walk-off homerun lifts Doubledays past Lake Monsters
By Eli Pearlstein / Auburn Doubledays | July 26, 2012 4:51 AM ET
AUBURN, N.Y. - Left Fielder Mike McQuillan smashed a two-run homerun in the bottom of the tenth, to lift the Auburn Doubledays (22-14) past the Vermont Lake Monsters (18-19), 8-7, on Wednesday night at Falcon Park. It is the sixth time this summer that the Doubledays have won in walk-off fashion.
The homerun was McQuillan's first in a Doubledays uniform, and erased a one-run deficit which Auburn was facing heading into the bottom of the tenth. In the top of the inning DH Miguel Marte was issued a leadoff walk. He was then replaced on the base paths by Dayton Alexander, who was pushed to second on a sacrifice bunt and then scored on a single to left by LF Austin Booker.
The game went into extra-innings because the Lake Monsters were able to tie the game in the top of the ninth. Down 6-5, 2B Chris Bostick leadoff the inning with a double, and was then advanced to third thanks to a sacrifice bunt from CF Brett Vertigan. First baseman Jacob Tanis drove Bostick home on a ground ball single to right. The inning unfolded exactly the same way as the bottom of the eighth for the Doubledays. Third baseman Kayyan Norfork leadoff with a double (part of a four-hit night for Norfork), and then moved to third on a sacrifice bunt from SS James Brooks. Norfork scored the go-ahead run on a single to right by McQuillan, breaking the 5-5 tie.
Auburn had been up 5-0 early. In the second inning the seven, eight, nine, and one batters in the Doubledays lineup all reached base consecutive thanks to a walk, single, hit batsman, and another walk. That put one run across the plate, and then with the bases load and two outs DH Estarlin Martinez delivered a bases clearing double to right. Auburn added its fifth run an inning later on an RBI single by Norfork.
The Lake Monsters got their first five runs in the fifth. They sent eight batters to the plate in the inning, and were helped out by a fielding error from Norfork that allowed the first run to score. The next three runs were driven in by back-to-back doubles, first from RF John Wooten, followed by catcher Bruce Maxwell. A sacrifice fly to center from SS Wilfredo Solano drove in the fifth and final run of the frame.
Despite allowing Vermont to score in the top of the tenth, LHP Elliott Waterman (2-0) earned the win for Auburn. Doubledays starter RHP David Fischer went four innings, allowing five runs (three earned) on seven hits, walking two and striking out one. RHP Logan Chitwood (3-1) got charged with the blown save and the loss for Vermont.
The Doubledays continue their three-game series with the Lake Monsters on Thursday, July 26. Auburn will send LHP Nick Lee (1-0) to the mound for his fifth start of the year. He will square off against RHP Andres Avila (0-3) for Vermont. First pitch is scheduled for 7:05pm. All Thursdays are $1.00 Thursdays at Falcon Park, with Budweiser or Labatt drafts, Hoffman hot dogs, and Coca Cola soft drinks all available for $1.00 each. Tickets available by calling the Doubledays box office at 315-255-2489 or by going online to www.auburndoubledays.com.

Scott Stuber produced Ted, Battleship and Identity Thief — and now, he's just signed on to turn the Gears of War games into a feature film.
Universal is trying to develop the Gears movie — and Crave's Coming Soon website reported Tuesday the hiring of Stuber to make it happen. How knows? Video game franchises may be the future wave of movies (worked for Double Dragon, right?). But, Gears of War has broken sales records since debuting in 2006, so maybe this is the project that can remove the video game stigma from those adapted projects.

The MC6803U4 is an 8-bit single-chip microcomputer unit (MCU) which enhances the capabilities of the MC6801. It includes an MC6801 microprocessor unit (MPU) with direct object-code compatibility and upward object-code compatibility with the MC6800. Execution times of key instructions have been improved over the MC6800 and the new instructions found on the MC6801 are included. The MCU can function as a monolithic microcomputer or be expanded to a 64k byte address space. It is TTL compatible and requires one 5volt power supply. On-chip resources include 4096 bytes of rom, 192 bytes of RAM(with 32byte of RAM retainable during power down), a serial communications interface (SCI), parallel I/O,and a 16-bit six-function programmable timer (with three output compare functions, two input capture functions and counter alternate address). It can be considered a MC6801U4 operating in modes 2 or 3; i.e., those that do not use internal ROM. On these ECU's the MCU operates in mode 2.
MC14442 (not L1)
The MC14442 is peripheral integrated circuit designed to interface a microprocessor for analog data acquisition. The device is a complete peripheral data acquisition systems on a single chip and can convert analog signals to digital data from up to 11 external analog terminals. Operates from a single 5-V supply and contains a 12-channel analog multiplexer, and 8-bit ratiometric analog-to-digital (A/D) converter, a sample-and-hold circuit, three 16-bit registers, and microprocessor-compatible control circuitry. Additional features include a built-in self-test, six multipurpose (analog or digital) inputs, five external analog inputs, and an 8-pin input/output (I/O) data port. The three on-chip data registers store the control data, the conversion results, and the input digital data that can be accessed via the microprocessor data bus in two bytes.
ADC0809 (L1 only)
The ADC0809 data acquisition component is a monolithic CMOS device with an 8-bit analog-to-digital converter, 8-channel multiplexer and microprocessor compatible control logic. The 8-bit A/D converter uses successive approximation as the conversion technique. The converter features a high impedance chopper stabilized comparator, a 256R voltage divider with analog switch tree and a successive approximation register. The 8-channel multiplexer can directly access any of 8-single-ended analog signals.
Timer MC6840
The MC6840 is a programmable subsystem component of the M6800 Family designed to provide variable system time intervals. The MC6840 has three 16-bit binary counters, three corresponding control registers, and a status register. These counters are under software control and may be used to cause system interrupts and/or generate output signals. It maybe utilized for such tasks as frequency measurements, event counting, interval measuring, and similar tasks. The device may be used for square wave generation, gated delay signals, single pulses of controlled duration, and pulse width modulation as well as system interrupts.

Coming out of Fresno State, the book on Paul George(notes) was that he had "excellent leaping ability and a frame that is reminiscent of a young Tracy McGrady(notes)," according to the fine folks at DraftExpress. T-Mac has used his long, wiry frame pretty well over the years, establishing himself among the game's elite athletes and (once upon a time) as a ferocious in-game dunker, thanks to mammoth posterizations like this classic on Shawn Bradley.
Obviously, George hasn't really had an opportunity to establish himself as much of anything yet — he's only 20 appearances into his rookie season with the Indiana Pacers, playing just 16.5 minutes per contest. But this post-practice clip of George — clad, for some wonderful reason, in what Pacers assistant coach/narrator Walter McCarty calls "the throwback John-Stockton-of-the-Utah-Jazz shorts" — going up and over ginormous teammate Roy Hibbert(notes) for a sweet dunk definitely confirms the leaping ability.
It's gotta be the shorts, right?
George's jam probably reminds most of us of Nate Robinson's(notes) famed "Krypto-Nate" dunk over Dwight Howard(notes) from the 2009 Slam Dunk Contest. The fact that George is much, much taller (he's listed at 6-foot-8, while Nate's booked at 5-foot-9) does downgrade the wow factor a bit, but keep in mind that at 7-foot-2, dunkee Hibbert's three inches taller than the 6-foot-11 Howard. Still a really, really impressive display of upsmanship.
If George could ever translate that kind of explosion into a game, he'd probably become an Internet legend and garner dunk-crazy fans all over the world. For now, though, Pacers fans would probably settle for the rook hitting more than 34 percent of his shots, even if they're not always so breathtaking. They'd also probably dig it if he hit the floor wearing them Stockton-esque joints, too, because that's just how Indy gets down.
International readers ("Int'l read'rs"): If the clip above isn't rocking for you, please feel free to peruse the one giant leap for Georgekind courtesy of pacersvideo.

My Daughter has attended this ballet school for two years now.

For young dancers especially i feel that the Shayne McCormick Ballet Centre teaches with the perfect balance of nurturing, fun and discipline. I found the parents of children who had been attending for years very welcoming and easy to talk to with any questions i had. My daughter absolutely loves going!

What I have is a heat pump with a 140,000 BTU water to air heat exchanger, plenum mounted into the trunk line of my forced hot air system. Clearly I only use the heat pump for the blower, supply/return air and filtering. This exchanger was once fed by an outdoor wood boiler that is no longer in service, instead, I am using a 85,000 BTU Alaska Stoker Stove 2 to handle the heating duties. This year I would like to utilize the exchanger coil, I would like to install a coil (or coil's) in my stoker to handle the water heating duties, but don't know how to go about it exactly?? Pressurized system?? Non-pressurized with a storage tank?? Seems like pressurized would be the way to go, but not sure of what or which parts/components are needed to make this happen?? I am a very good pipefitter, did industrial fitting for many years, problem is most all of the piping I did was from piping Iso's, from point a-b-c-d-etc. and I never had a chance to really learn the why's and how's of what I was doing, all that was done long before it ever got into my hands, so, I'm looking for some help with this process and any input/advice is more than welcome and appreciated.. I can provide any measurements etc. that may be needed to assist..
Thanks, Adam

Respect, academics and sportsmanship are taught along with a great jump shot.
Take a walk past nearly any New York City park, and you're bound to see kids playing basketball. For this reason, the sport is an integral part of The Children's Aid Society offerings. Our basketball programs ensure that youth get to enjoy a sport they love while being introduced to Children's Aid's many education, arts and health care programs.
In some programs, basketball is about more than working up a sweat. Hoop Brothers combines mentoring with sports. Study Now, Play Later at the Dunlevy Milbank Center combines academics with athletics. And Honor the Game, hosted by nearly all Children's Aid community schools, teaches youth to respect the game, their coaches and each other.
Children's Aid basketball programs serve boys and girls ages 5-18. They run year-round and include after-school programs at community centers and community schools; summer hoops are played at the Goodhue Center and Wagon Road Camp. The Children's Aid Society Douglass Panthers basketball team, housed at the Frederick Douglass Center, provides girls with a unique opportunity to learn the lessons of teamwork and good sportsmanship.
By providing structured and supervised environments, Children's Aid ensures that children have fun and keep fit while staying safe.

SUPERMARKETS will be kitted out with lifesaving cardiac machines for shoppers and staff to use in emergencies.
Six Asda stores in East Lancashire are set to be presented with a public access defibrillator and will train store colleagues in CPR in the coming weeks.
Asda has joined forces with the British Heart Foundation to place the defibrillators in its Burnley, Blackburn, Darwen, Rawtenstall, Accrington and Colne stores.
The public access defibrillators can be used by any shopper to deliver an electric shock to the heart when someone is having a cardiac arrest.
Kate Main, from Asda's community team, said: "We're really proud of our relationship with the BHF and want the people in East Lancs communities to have the best chance of survival if cardiac arrest strikes.
"It can take a number of minutes for an ambulance to reach one of our stores in response to an emergency like a cardiac arrest."
Amit Aggarwal, head of fundraising at the British Heart Foundation, added: "This really could mean the difference between life and death for someone having a cardiac arrest while doing something as ordinary as shopping."

Ask Mac Questions and Get Answers from Experts ASAP
Hi, my name is Britton. Are you available?
available but not for hours
Hi there. So, FF is giving you fits?
hopefully we can get you going in minutes, not hours :)
and the other browsers now also
Opera and Safri..probably all outdate
was working fine until a guy updated ff
hmm...alright. Have you tried uninstalling and re-installing firefox?
yes of cours
but FF says that normally is not the remedy
are you there?
okay. have you tried using something like app zapper or app cleaner to remove FF and all of it's sub-components, and then use other browsers to see if FF being installed is even the culprit?
just used xslimmer but as I said the browsers are not working so difficult to download
are there any on the HD?
Other browsers aren't working at all? I'm confused, what are you using now, to chat with me?
no, just the normal drag to trash uninstallation
Im on my other computer
I see, download with this computer then transfer to your mac with a flash drive. Xslimmer just removes the PPC binaries and other languages. It's used to free up space
anything else
This is app cleaner...http://www.freemacsoft.net/AppCleaner/
which one to try first?
I would start with using it to uninstall firefox...however, are you sure you have network connectivity with your Mac at all?
I am sure...I can get on Opera periodically .. trying now
on the problem computer...you recommend saving file or opening it .. Opera is up now
save it
you'll need to install it when it finishes downloading
uninstall FF now?
anything else uninstall
nope, let's just start with FF
start AppCleaner and drag FF to the Box that says "Drag Apps Here
5 files found: plist dmg 2 folders & icon delete all?
try your other browser, let's see if it works
I am using it now but I am pretty sure it's going to freeze the computer and crash because I already uninstalled FF once ... you think taking out the 5 files are going to resolve the issue?
it might, I dont have high hopes for it, but it's a possibility...if it locks up on you, reboot into safe mode...
try this...
1.) Shutdown your Mac
2.) Press the power button on your Mac to turn it back on
3.) As soon as you hear the startup chime noise, immediately press and hold the <SHIFT> key until you see a progress indicator.
4.) Release the <SHIFT> key when you see the progress indicator -- allow your Mac to boot up.
5.) Once your Mac has booted in safe mode, reboot it and allow it to boot normally.
Bookmark this page so you can come back here and chat with me when you come back
I am on a different computer so don't need to BM but what are we attempting by doing this.I am confused?
i have opera open and it isn't freezing yet but my main objective is to get FF up and running since many programs don't run on the others
Restarting in Safe mode will clear a number of caches in Mac OS X, the network adapter might have some stale data that may be causing these issues. Booting in Safe mode may help alleviate the problem, it's just another step to try and fix this.
Let me know when you're finished
now let's re-install firefox...see if you can download it
I need to reboot this computer also ... running slow
Keep me posted
you just rebooted, right? When you booted into Safe Mode?
I am on 2 computers remember ... chatting with you on one and reporting on the other. I rebooted in safe mode on the problem computer. Still having same issue with the new version of FF -- it froze
Bummer, it might a good idea to archive and re-install Mac OS X
do you have your Mac OS X DVD(s)
You know what I think I need to take this in because I don't have the SW handy and I cannot spend this much time when the issue is not obvious.
This does seem to be a fairly deep-seated issue as it is affecting multiple pieces of software. However, I can almost guarantee you they are going to want to re-install Mac OS X
If you have the time, consider doing it yourself -- it will save you some $$
how do i get the computer off Safe mode...I now need to unplug the computer again because it is not rebooting
I will be going overseas in 2 months and it was worth trying for the price quote but I have already spent over 8 hrs trying
Did you reboot after booting into Safe mode (Step 5 posted earlier)?
Okay good, you are not in Safe mode now, you only booted into safe mode to clean things up, after rebooting, you are back into normal mode
Holding the start button down is not working--just a black screen but still running
the shift key, not start
off now ... to reboot in regular mode I don't have to do anything right?
just restart
I am not being charged correct?
You only get charged if you choose to pay me by "Accepting". I do not work for justanswer.com, I do this as contract work. You put down a good faith deposit, but it is fully refundable
If you're not satisfied with the help I have given you, you're not obligated to accept
I am sure you are helpful in other areas but this issue was a waste of both our time I think
Thanks though.
Not necessarily, I'm confident we can make this work. I have been through many issues with Macs that are more complex than this. You just need to be willing to spend the time to see it through
