The E-Book Revolution
I've recently started using Amazon's Kindle. I didn't buy one, I couldn't justify buying an environmentally costly piece of tech designed merely for e-reading, though admittedly, the Kindle Fire does look very lovely and is a far more environmentally and economically sound investment versus the old one-trick-pony Kindle. Unfortunately, being that I'm a poor college student, I don't have $150 lying around. I'm kind of saving up my money in hopes of visiting the optometrist soon and getting a pair of glasses so that I don't get crow's feet style wrinkles from squinting at the board during school lectures.
Anyhow, so I sprung for the only Kindle in my budget, the free Google Chrome app.
I've bought a few e-books: an ethnography on the Hadza Hunter-Gatherers that I needed to read for one of my Anthropology classes (and I got full points on the paper I had to write reviewing it), Odd and the Frost Giants written by my favorite author (it was on sale), and Infected: Click Your Poison by James Schannep (because, duh, zombies — totally worth the four bucks by the way, I recommend going and buying).
I'm liking e-books so far. The one-click buying option on Amazon makes it very dangerous for my wallet, but otherwise, the Kindle's highlighting and note-taking capabilities proved very useful for my writing assignment, and I like that my Kindle app on the computer can synch to the one on my phone, and I'm able to open up at the page I left off reading on anywhere, anytime.
On twitter, which is another dangerous new toy that's becoming far too much of a distraction, I've recently collected several e-book authors on both my follower and following lists, and I realized as I sat there scrolling through the ridiculously numerous tweets of "buy my e-book" or "buy his e-book" or "buy her e-book", that we are currently in the midst of a revolution in the literature world. This thought may or may not have been prompted by an email update I received from Writer's Digest featuring an article talking about e-books as an easy, low-cost alternative to conventional forms of self-publishing.
Admittedly, I have a few prejudices when it comes to self-publishing, I think most people do, but I'm trying to break away from those biases. I like the indie movement, in music, movies, video games especially, so it stands to reason that I should be open-minded towards indie books, but I'm still very torn on the issue.
I know that traditional publishing can be very difficult to break into, with or without an agent. I've heard many an anecdote on the subject; one about Steven King taking his first book to something like thirty-four different publishing houses before one agreed to option his manuscript and that J.K. Rowling and her agent had to offer paying half-the-costs of printing Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone in order to get a publisher willing to sign. If such stories are true, it does beg the question, do publishers really know what makes a good story? Not to mention, it fuels theories of an elitist world, where publishers decide whose voices can be heard, censoring the masses by silencing and squashing stories they dislike for whatever subjective reasoning they might supply.
On the flip-side, I feel that, with a few exceptions, the traditional publishing industry does help to maintain a certain standard of quality in the literary world. When you, allegedly, have experts with degrees in English, Literature, Creative Writing, etc., boasting oodles of practical knowledge on the fine mechanics of story-telling, sorting through the hundreds of millions of would-be novels they receive yearly, you have to assume that at the very least, a good chunk of the absolute best in that stack are making it through to our eager reader hands. I'm not an English teacher, and I'm not an editor, I don't want to read juvenile writing efforts, and I most certainly don't want to waste precious money (poor college student, remember?) on a book that probably should have been rewritten a couple hundred more times, or maybe just been tossed altogether. Cruel as it may be, there is still much benefit in the tactics of the traditional publishing industry.
That being said, what do e-books mean for publishing? Some speculate that between Amazon signing authors and the advent of the e-book industry, traditional publishing houses might be looking at going the way of the dinosaurs. Though it would set a very scary precedent for the future, I'm not entirely convinced. I do think that most authors looking to break into the field will try more conventional publishing routes first, e-books take a lot of work on the writer's part, generally requiring the writer to do their own marketing, schedule their own events, and just all around doing the promotional work that a publishing house would do for them. For some of these beginning authors, Amazon will be that "conventional" route, but there will be other author's that won't want to sign with Amazon for varying personal or professional reasons. Those that can't find a way into writing, or perhaps just don't like the idea of going through traditional publishers may then look at e-books as an initial option, some will possibly stay e-book only, but I think many will use it merely as a springboard into print.
Because, honestly, at the end of the day, digital cannot replace the feel of holding an actual solid book in your hands, feeling the texture of the pages beneath your fingertips, hearing the soothing whisper with each turn, and breathing in the familiar smells of either the fresh ink in a brand new text or the dust and age in an ancient, yellowing tome. The words aren't the story alone, but the book itself, the object in physical form, is an experience that book-philes like myself will be none too eager to give up in lieu of fancy highlighting and note-taking capabilities.
I like my Kindle apps. I love my books.
That being said, I think one day I may publish an e-book or two, mainly because I have some stories I'd like to put out there that I don't think would ever sell in the traditional market. Why write them then? Well, every writer knows the answer to that question, the stories will eat me alive if I don't.

how is butrans different than suboxene?
Butrans or buprenorphine is an opioid based drug used to treat moderate to severe pain that produces less of a "high" than other opioid based products. Subuxone contains buprenorphine but it also contains naloxene which blocks the effects of opioid based drugs. Subuxone is used to assist with withdrawal from these drugs. Butrans is simply used for pain.
Any doctor can write an Rx for Butrans. As the good doctor noted above- despite clever marketing- both Suboxone and Butrans deliver the same active ingredient- the opioid buprenorphine. The only difference being the delivery systems. In other words, if a savvy GP had a trusted patient who needed help with opiate detoxing and perhaps was unable to pay the "cash up front" to a Suboxone-certified MD (relief from cravings, withdrawal symptoms, etc.) he or she could give that patient Butrans.

Signal buffering in random networks of spiking neurons: microscopic vs. macroscopic phenomena
In randomly connected networks of pulse-coupled elements a time-dependent input signal can be buffered over a short time. We studied the signal buffering properties in simulated networks as a function of the networks' state, characterized by both the Lyapunov exponent of the microscopic dynamics and the macroscopic activity derived from mean-field theory. If all network elements receive the same signal, signal buffering over delays comparable to the intrinsic time constant of the network elements can be explained by macroscopic properties and works best at the phase transition to chaos. However, if only 20% of the network units receive a common time-dependent signal, signal buffering properties improve and can no longer be attributed to the macroscopic dynamics.

When the new Apple TV was announced Ezone.com decided to join the 'Gold Rush' and have a game ready for launch day. We've been full-time Indie game developers for almost 20 years and being an early adopter of new game technology and platforms has worked well for us in the past. We entered the Apple TV developer lottery, won, and received our developer kit on September 21st. Luckily for us, Unity had an alpha version ready (helped no doubt by the Unity game Crossy Road being featured in the Apple announcement event) so we were able to build and test on the Apple TV straight away. This gave us roughly one month have a game ready for launch in 'late October'.
The Game
We knew we wanted to make a game exclusively for the new device rather than port an existing game. Small screen (iPhone) gaming is suited to single player games, whereas on the TV local multiplayer games are more fun. We decided to build on a one-button game mechanic we'd been experimenting with. Rather than require players to pair an additional controller we settled on a control scheme where players sit next to each other and each use a button on the shared Siri Remote – similar to how Die Gute Fabrik's 'SportsFriends' on the PlayStation allows two players to share one controller.
Spin Sports is essentially an air hockey game where your character is continuously spinning. When it faces the direction you want to go you press to shoot forward. We tested the controls on a range of players of different ages and skill levels and found that everyone quickly got the idea and were able to have fun from the start while also improving their skills the more they played.
The original plan for Spin Sports was to launch with a bunch of different game modes, but because of the time limitation we had to scale back a few things and ended up with just the air hockey mode. We thought it was important to make sure we had the foundation of a fun, stable and responsive game that we could build on and expand once it was launched.
We decided to make Spin Sports free+IAP, with 30+ characters that can be randomly unlocked with collected coins or purchased for US$0.99 per character – similar to the model pioneered by Crossy Road and also used in our recent iOS game Diver Dash. We were also able to use the characters created for Diver Dash (and add some new ones), which helped with the tight deadline.
Everything went surprisingly well and we managed to have a fully functional version of the game submitted to Apple and approved, ready for launch day.
The Numbers
Unfortunately Spin Sports didn't get one of the feature slots in the App Store, so we had to rely on organic downloads. In total we've had 2450 downloads over the first 9 days which is not bad, especially given that Spin Sports wasn't featured and considering the app discoverability issues (the only way you can find Spin Sports is to go to the App Store on your Apple TV and search for 'spin'). Hopefully discoverability will improve. Apple has already added 'Top Charts' and 'Categories' (in some countries). Right now Spin Sports is hovering around the mid thirties in the Free Games charts, which is OK but we are hoping to do better.
Although we are happy with the download numbers, revenue is a different story. The 2450 downloads have only resulted in five in-app purchases, which means we've made about $3.50. Not much of a gold rush… or even a gold trickle!
So, before we get overrun by the Indiepocalypse it's time to try something different…
Make it Paid
We are going to make Spin Sports a paid game. We'll keep it free until the new update is approved, but after that it will be US$4.99 (hint: download it now while it's free). As part of the conversion to 'paid' we are going to add more game modes, support for up to 6 players (two on the Siri Remote + two MFi controllers with two players on each), and remove in-app purchases (so you can only unlock characters using earned coins) .
The early days of the Apple TV app market has been very different to the gold rush days of the iPhone App Store. The apps and hardware for the Apple TV launched at the same time, meaning there was not an existing installed hardware base. Instead, the app market for the Apple TV will only grow as more consumers purchase the hardware. This is quite different to the iPhone App Store which launched a year after the hardware – when the original App Store opened there were already more than 6 million iPhone users all hungry for apps and games.
The Apple TV game market isn't going to be a gold rush, but more of a slow building wave. Developers need to be patient and wait for the market to grow. The good news is this gives us time to refine our games and revenue models and get them right, so when the wave does break, we'll be in the perfect spot to ride it!

Former Northern Colorado linebacker close to a full-ride scholarship to Baylor Theological Seminary
On some level, regardless of religion, race, background or sport, many athletes will say that their faith plays a large role in how they do on the field.
Linebacker Cameron Friend, who recently graduated from UNC, will tell you the exact same thing.
Friend, who - prior to coming to the University of Northern Colorado - was a four-year letter winner in both football and basketball at Mullen High School in Denver, will be quick to talk of his relationship with Jesus Christ over his accomplishments on the gridiron.
"We call it 'AO 1,' and that means 'Audience of One,' which is just you play as if God was in the stands watching you," Friend said. "So you just give it everything you've got, and no matter the result, you give Him the praise."
Friend doesn't live by his faith just on the field. For him, living the Gospel is just as important as playing for God.
"Being Christ-like in the locker room means upholding yourself to Godly standards, and always making sure that you are someone that (teammates) can rely on, that they can lean on in times of pressure," Friend said. "If they need to talk to someone, they can talk to you, just being available."
Friend first accepted Christ into his life, though, after he arrived at UNC.
"I grew up around a lot of gangs, so violence was tough and everything," Friend said. "I got up here, and eventually, I was just getting the pull on my heart that I needed to make changes in my life, and in January 2010, I first accepted Christ into my life after reading Matthew 25, and basically Jesus laid out that a time was going to come when he was going to separate His sheep from the goats, and I knew I wanted to be one of the sheep."
Friend has gotten the opportunity to attend many faith-based conferences and has gotten chances to share his faith on the road.
"Athletes in Action flew me down to New Orleans, and they took us into the Ninth Ward to share the Gospel with over 400 people, and 126 people accepted Christ that day," Friend said. "In Atlanta, there was a conference called Passion going on, and I had no intention of going. God told me I need to go. The conference is for over 70,000 people, and costs over $300 per person to go, and you have to sign up months before. I go to the Georgia Dome, where the conference is being held, I get in for free. I end up sharing this testimony with a lot of people."
Friend used many social media tools to spread his belief to others, saying that he feels any method is a perfect method to share the Word of God.
"Everything in our life is a platform to glorify the Lord," Friend said. "Whether or not we recognize it, we can influence certain kinds of people with the Gospel. Whether you're on the football field, or you're reporting, or whether you're coaching, or whether you're a janitor, you always have a platform to work on, and that is how you use it to share the faith. Twitter, Instagram or Facebook, it's just another way to let people know who Jesus is."
Having a coach who also has a relationship with Jesus Christ can be helpful. Head coach Earnest Collins Jr. said sharing the faith, which is his highest calling in life, helps him connect on a deeper level should the need arise.
"You try and get to know your players, and you talk to them about different things, and some players, when they're going through adversity, you can talk to them about different lessons they learned through their faith and reading the Bible, and people that had struggles and had to fight," Collins said. "You can send them to a book like Job or a book like James, so that now they can go and see an example of what they're living, and they can translate that onto the field."
Friend is close to a full-ride scholarship to Baylor Theological Seminary, where he'll be pursuing a career at the pulpit. While serving the Lord in a church is something he wants to pursue, he said he feels more led to spread the Gospel in the field.
"Catalytic prophetic ministry," Friend said of his ultimate intentions. "Meaning I'll be a speaker at a church, but more so evangelizing to people who don't know the Gospel, or just people of other religions to know that Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life."

Forbes just came out with its annual list of the richest people in the world. According to the list, there are 937 billionaires in the world. None of them are bloggers.
While I pride myself on publishing blogging tips that are both practical and applicable, this post is neither of those things. This is pure fun, conjecture, dreaming, and brainstorming. This post is also somewhat scattered and dense. Enjoy :)
What would it take to become a billionaire?
I'm 25 right now, and let's say I'll work on this billion-dollar blogging thing until I'm 75. That gives me 50 years to amass my fortune. $1,000,000,000 divided by 50 years is $20,000,000 a year. So I would need to earn $20 million a year for the next 50 years in order to become a billionaire.
That's $1,666,667 a month or $54,795 a day.
Holy crap. Imagine making $55,000 a month!
Anyway, so we've got an idea of the figures we need to be shooting for. Let's now shift our focus to HOW a blogger could do that.
How could a blogger become a billionaire?
Well, let's start out with the bottom and work our way up! Note that I suck at math and might have inserted an extra zero in there when doing some of the calculations.
Note: This section borrows heavily from ProBlogger's How to Make $30,000 a Year Blogging, which immediately came to mind when I thought about writing this post.
AdSense: If the average cost per click is 5 cents, we'd need 1,095,900 clicks a day to reach our $54,795 a day goal. Wow. I don't even want to do the math of how much traffic you'd need to get that many clicks. But if we're talking about a billion freaking dollars, let's not nickel and dime ourselves here. Let's cross AdSense off the list and focus on the bigger fish to fry.
CPM Ads: This is where you get X amount of dollars per thousand impressions or pageviews. If we get $2 per thousand impressions (again, that figure is stolen from the ProBlogger article), we'd need 27,397,500 daily pageviews. That's a huge number… But how huge?
Well, YouTube apparently gets 2 billion pageviews a day. So we wouldn't have to build the next YouTube. That's good.
But how about the largest blog in the world, the Huffington Post? It gets an average of 2.9 million visitors a day [source] and on average, each visitor views 3.3 pages a day [source]. So we multiply the two and deduce that the Huffinton post gets 9.57 million pageviews a day. That's bad. That means we'd need to build a blog that's essentially 3 times as popular as the Huffington Post in order to reach our goal via CPM. So I guess we can cross CPM off the list, too.
Let's cut to the chase here. Forget affiliate marketing. Let's go straight to selling our own products.
Selling your own products: Let's start out with the classic $27 for an ebook. To make a billion dollars over 50 years, you'd need to sell 2,030 ebooks a day. Wow.
Let's go with a $97 course. You'd need to sell 565 a day.
How about a $297 course? 185 a day. That doesn't sound too bad, right? At least that's a number I can wrap my head around. But remember, this is every single day… for 50 years. And let's say you're managing 10 blogs, that's only 19 sales per day per blog.
Let's now go with a high ticket course, something like Product Launch Formula. I believe this bad boy costs $2000. You'd need to sell 27.4 a day, or about 833 a month. If you have 10 blogs, that's a little more than 8 sales per blog per month. Sweet!
The problem I see with these numbers is that it would be REALLY hard to find that many new customers every day or month. So this naturally leads us to…
Big ticket continuity programs: Ok, now let's get serious. To make big money, I think the best bet would be to go after businesses rather than end users, so let's assume that we sell directly to businesses. Let's say that we provide some sort of monthly blogging service or software or something for these businesses. If we charge $1,500 a month for our amazing blog software/services, we'd need to do business with 1,111 business. And if we charge $3,000 a month, we'd need to do business with 556 businesses.
So the key to making a billion dollars is… Charge 556 businesses $3,000 a month! Pffff. Simple, right?
Sell your blogs/blogging companies: Let's say that you start blogs, build them up, and sell them. Well, earlier this week, AOL just completed its purchase of the Huffington Post (which I'll go ahead and say again is the world's #1 blog) for $315 million dollars. So you'd need to start and then sell 3 (and a bit more) Huffington Posts. For reference, the Huffington Post is the 120th most popular website on the internet, according to its Alexa rank.
This seems like the best route to take if you want to become a billionaire blogger. Start up a bunch of massive blogs and then sell them to AOL. Piece of cake! [Insert wide-eyed emoticon here]
Start one MASSIVE blog or blogging company: Of course, the "easiest" option might be to just create a single huge blog and sell it for billions of dollars :) Which leads us to…
How do you build a billion dollar blog?
I found a great article on Forbes.com about how to start a billion dollar company. The content for that article is lifted from a book called Blueprint to a Billion (there's also How to Build a Billion Dollar Company from Scratch if you're interested).
Here are the main points from the article. In other words, these are the main ways you build a billion dollar company (or in our case, a billion dollar blog):
"Get a big idea"
There are 3 types of billion dollar ideas:
1. Shapers of the new world – Microsoft, eBay (create a new type of business)
2. Niche shapers – Starbucks, Nike (redefine old worlds)

"Find a marquee customer"
In other words, find fanatical customers that will evangelize for you.
"Embrace Big Brother"
Piggyback off of the existing success and recognition of big companies.
"Master the inside/outside dynamic"
This essentially means partnering with the right person(s). The "inside" refers to one person in the partnership being responsible for things inside the company, like operations and innovation. The "outside" refers to the person that focus on how the outside world interacts with and perceives the company. So that means marketing, sales, etc.
"Put billion-dollar experts on board"
This one's pretty self explanatory. Put really good people on your board of directors!
I'm not going to go any deeper into this; I just wanted to present the information because I thought it was interesting. Feel free to apply this more directly to a blogging scenario. Leave a comment or write a post about it (being sure to link back here, of course!).
Bloggers as writers
But after all of that, I guess the big question is still this: Is it possible for just a blogger (and not an owner of a company that provides blogging goods or services) to become a billionaire? Well, when it comes down to it, bloggers are writers. And the world's richest writer right now is Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling. And according to Forbes, she's worth $1 billion.
So in order to truly become a billionaire blogger, I guess you'd need to sell millions and millions of copies of your ebooks … and then get them turned into Hollywood motion pictures :)
Let's be realistic
Yes, I realize there are flaws with all of this. I haven't taken into account taxes, inflation, or any other costs of any kind. I've kind of blurred the line between "blogger" and "person who runs a company that sells blogging products." I've also assumed that making a billion dollars equals being a billionaire. But all of this was just a thought experiment to see what kinds of numbers we're dealing with here.
Moral of the story? It would be freaking HARD to make a billion dollars blogging.
Further reading, part 1
Honestly, I find this all pretty dang fascinating. I came across some more really cool articles on the subject, and figured you might enjoy reading them, too.
Just be sure to leave a comment here and retweet this post before reading any of them:
- Build a Billion-Dollar Business
- How to Create a Billion-Dollar Company
- J.K. Rowling and the Billion Dollar Empire
Further reading, part II
I also created a short FREE ebook that you can download. It's called Billionaires on Blogging, and it's an ebook containing 20 quotes from the 5 richest people in the world. I've applied each quote to blogging. In order to get a copy, you'll need to click the button below the image and share the post via Twitter or Facebook.
[^^ I've never used this pay-with-a-tweet thing so it'll be interesting to see how it works… If you can't see the button because you're reading this in your email or RSS reader, you'll have to come to the page on the blog]
Final words
Just so you know, I will become the first billionaire blogger :) But I welcome competition. I think there's room for a few of us on the "Richest People in the World" list.
But tell me…
- Do you think it's possible for a blogger to become a billionaire?
- If so, when do you think we'll see the first billionaire bloggers?
- What do you think the best path to blogger billionaireship would be?
- Do you have a billion dollar blog idea?
And again, please comment on this post and share it via whatever social networks you like :) Also… I switched my web hosting company. The blog is now SIGNIFICANTLY faster; have you noticed?

Domestic and family violence occurs when one person in an intimate personal, family or informal care relationship uses violence or abuse to maintain power and control over the other person.
Broadly, under Queensland law, it includes behaviour that is physically, sexually, emotionally, psychologically or economically abusive, threatening, coercive or aimed at controlling or dominating another person through fear.
The Domestic and Family Violence Protection Act 2012 (the Act) aims to provide safety and protection for people in relevant relationships who are victims of domestic and family violence.
In October 2016, the Queensland Parliament passed a range of amendments to the Act to better protect victims of domestic and family violence and their families, hold perpetrators to account for their actions and support the delivery of integrated service responses.
The Act provides protection to those people experiencing domestic and family violence by empowering police to take action to protect a person from domestic violence and by enabling a court to make a domestic violence order (DVO). DVOs aim to prevent domestic and family violence occurring within a relevant relationship by restricting the behaviour of the person committing the abuse.
For more information on how to get protection from domestic violence, including how to apply for a DVO, visit the Queensland Courts website.

Stamps and stencils, as you may have noticed, can be an invaluable tool in your art journal kit. When I started out, I used to scoff at the HUGE variety of stamps and stencils that are available in the market. In fact, I still think that if a design is special use only, it is a waste of money to buy a stamp or stencil – it's far better to learn how to draw that design, or better yet, create a custom design for your personal use.
All you need to invest in is one tool – an X-Acto knife – and you're pretty much on your way.
Stamp carving 101
You can carve beautiful, complex designs on linoleum blocks, or you can take the quick and dirty route {like I typically do} and create some beautiful designs quickly and easily.
The easiest way to carve a stamp is to get your hands on a ubiquitous white eraser. Draw your design on the eraser and cut away the negative areas. Just remember that the stamp will give you a mirror image of your design, which is of particular relevance if you're cutting alphabet stamps.
Don't have an X-acto knife yet? Don't worry. Just grab your scissors and a sheet of craft foam. You can create lovely shape stamps by cutting out shapes from your craft foam and sticking it on to a piece of cardboard in a pleasing arrangement.
Want something even quicker? Take your sheet of craft foam and draw your design on it with a pen. You'll have to press down as you draw – ink it up and stamp away!
Stencil cutting 101
You can splurge on a silhouette die cut machine that can also cut out stencils. Or spend a little elbow grease and cut out your own stencils. You'll need an X-Acto knife and a piece of cardboard or a clear transparency sheet. Draw your design and cut away. If you cut carefully and retain the shape of the cut-out perfectly, you also have a mask for your stencil! Easy-peasy!
Put this lesson to work: Try carving a stamp or cutting a stencil and use it as a main element in your art journal.

The Canon Pixma MG7720 is a great and affordable home printing option with lots of features that make printing at home easy! This post contains affiliate links which means if you purchase something I recommend I make a small percentage of the sale, this helps keep the blog content free to you! Also I would never recommend anything I didn't truly love.
I was recently gifted this awesome Canon Pixma MG7720 printer and I've been so impressed with it that I thought I would do a full review. I'm not one to be over enthused about electronics and honestly printers usually end up driving me crazy for one reason or another! This Canon printer has been a breeze to use and I'll tell you all about why.
Lets start with the aesthetic of it. I'm kind of in love with the shiny white exterior. It's so modern and pretty that I don't mind leaving it out on the end of my desk area. It also comes in black, gold and red, the gold and red look a little crazy but hey if that's your style go for it!
I have to say I was super skeptical of printing wirelessly. My previous printer said that it was capable of wireless printing but every time I tried it took like 5 million years for it to actually print. I pretty much expected to use a printer cable with this printer as well. I've just been under the impression that you can't really print large files without being connected through a cable.
GUYS. I was SO impressed with this printer's wireless capability. I've printed photos, documents strait from Adobe illustrator as well as pdf's and word docs and they all print almost immediately through the wireless connection. It also has the capability to print wirelessly from your phone or tablet, I have not tried this yet but I've read reviews that says it's awesome!
I'm not the tech person in my house by any stretch of the imagination. When anything arrives that needs to be set up in anyway I ask my husband to do it for me. Technology usually leaves me frustrated. Well the day that I needed to start printing Matt wasn't here and I had to do it on my own. Again another pleasant surprise with the Canon Pixma 7720- it was super easy to setup and start printing.
All I did was follow the instructions in the easy start guide that came with the printer and I was done just shy of 30 minutes. Seriously guys that might be a record for me! So I love that it was easy to set up and that the wireless connection works! I should note that I use a Macbook Pro, I cannot attest to the ease of setup on a PC but from other reviews I can imagine it's just as easy.
The Pixma 7720 has 2 "cassettes" for paper, the bottom one is for 8.5 x 11 and the top tray is adjustable for papers of different sizes. I decided to experiment with the Canon Photo Paper and loved the results! I created an entire photo display for my brother's rustic wedding reception and I printed out all the photos with this printer! Honestly the photos look just as good as one of those printers at Target.
The quality of printing is excellent, and I'm a pretty tough critic when it comes to print quality. I love the fact that this printer has different black ink cartridges for printing photos and printing word processing.
I love that I can print out photos on my home printer and I don't have to run down to the store to do it. I also love that I can print out fun "printables" for gift tags, home decor prints or gifts and do it on this home printer. I've used regular paper and card stock and all the prints have looked exceptional.
I've also used the scanner feature with no problems and great quality scans, wirelessly to my computer. This printer is also very quiet- much less noise than other printers I have owned. It has not jammed when I've used card stock (that's always a frightening moment when you try printing on card stock for the first time!) and it prints rather quickly!
I'm 100% recommending the Canon Pixma MG7720 printer for home use, I think I might actually use my printer more than the average person uses a home printer and this one is awesome. I love the print quality and easy of printing wirelessly and I really love the look of it, its so pretty!

Herbie is a little over a year old and is a mix- Pharoah hound - terrier? He's a designer dog - one of a kind. Herbie along with six of his brothers and sisters including his mom were placed with our family to foster for a month. They came to us at five weeks of age. They were all rescued from a high kill shelter that our local humane society tries to save as many as possible.
They stayed with us until they were old enough to be adopted. They all found happy homes even mom and we got to keep one out of the litter. Herbie attached himself to us and we have been together ever since. He goes to work with me and my husband.
He loves to play tugs. He hates fetch or also known as "steal the toy away from me" game.
He has a great personality, extremely smart. He loves to go for long rides in the truck. He's our family's best friend.

Jenn, that is one contented little dog! Enjoy your life with your little furbaby.
Herbie is an absolute doll! I'm so glad that you were able to rescue him and his family. Our local humane society is a "no-kill" group who takes animals from other societies who do practice euthanasia. In fact, the sweet little girl that I just adopted came from my local humane society who got her from a "kill" society. She's 12 years old, but a spry little dachshund and I adore her already.
Herbie looks just like our new 7 month old puppy. We were at a loss with what kind of mix he was! Thanks for the help.

How To Easily Raise Awareness of Birth Defects
Did you know that you can easily raise awareness of birth defects? It's true. Because 1 out of every 33 babies is born with a birth defect, awareness of these conditions is crucial and can lead to increased social acceptance of children and adults who are affected by deformities and disfigurements. If you are willing to raise awareness of birth defects as you go about your everyday life, read on.
There are thousands of types of birth defects.
Most people are unaware that there are literally thousands of different types of birth defects. Individuals are also largely uninformed that many babies are born with birth defects (1 in 33). Some of these birth defects have no known cause. It is safe to say that not many people understand the profound impact deformities have on a person's life.
Take part in awareness activities.
What can you do to help researchers get the funding they need to raise awareness of birth defects? Is there any contribution you can make to ensure children with deformities get the medical care they need? The answer is you can take part in awareness activities. Here are two awareness activities you can participate in easily:
– Share your personal story — Do you have a birth defect? If yes, share your story with others. One way you can do this is by commenting on this blog post and telling the world about your condition and how it has affected you. You can also reach out to your local media with your story. Don't forget to talk about your birth defect to individuals you encounter in your everyday life.
– Educate friends – To raise awareness of deformities among friends, direct them to this blog or other blogs devoted to individuals with disabilities. You can also take advantage of social media (Twitter, Facebook, etc.) and use it to publicize information about birth defects.
How do you raise awareness of birth defects, deformities and disfigurements? Share your tips with us by leaving a comment on this Disability Living blog post. Thanks for your feedback!

BP Comment Quick Links
July 18, 2005
The Week in Quotes
July 11-17
"They know how much I want to come back. Hopefully, they don't use it to their advantage and disrespect me with a minimum of years and minimum of salary. I'm 31 now. [Jason] Varitek just turned 33 and they had no problem giving a catcher a four-year contract [worth $40 million], so I have a valid point there."
"I told him, 'You're the Farrah Fawcett of baseball.' He's got that rock star presence. He's sort of direct from Central Casting."
"He scores very high on being relevant to young consumers, both male and female. It's very similar to how Tom Brady is with the Patriots."
"They're all getting stolen. We know if the cutouts get stolen, it's a successful promotion."
"Puma has been pushing me big overseas. I think 90 percent of America knows who I am and probably 75 percent of the world knows me. It's pretty much a global thing."
"I think more Canadians are realizing baseball's not just a recreational sport, something to do in the summer to kill time until it's hockey season again. I really do. Obviously, hockey's still the No. 1 game. Everyone knows that. And I love hockey. Don't get me wrong. But it's nice to see some Canadians looking at baseball as a career rather than just something to do."
"When I was growing up, it was just basically Larry Walker that we all had to look up to. He was the guy we all followed as baseball players, the one we wanted to be. And it meant so much to be able to point to someone like that and see that you could do it, too."
"Baseball became my passion right away. Every day, all I wanted to do was go to the park. The older I got, the more I wanted to play. Plus, when you're a little better at it than other people, you want to stick with it because that obviously makes it a little more fun."
"For me, it's always an honor to represent my country. And doing it in a tournament like that will make it even more special."
"My season is when I get paid. I'm not doing that.... I'm not sacrificing my body or taking a chance on an injury for something that's made up. A lot of guys feel that way. They won't say it like I will, though."
"This isn't the Olympics. That's a big difference. This is something you made up."
"There's no question I'm a better GM than when I took this job, and I think we're a better organization. People are tired of losing, and I understand that. I've been the GM the whole time, and we're tired of losing. Everyone's tired of hearing my rhetoric about what's going to happen in the future, and I understand that completely. I wish I had some of the decisions we made early in those 10 years back. But you can't. You just hope you learn from them and go on. We think we have."
"The first five [years] went by so quickly they made up for the last five. In the first five we built what we thought was just an outstanding foundation for an expansion organization. We don't need to go into a lot of detail over what a struggle the last five have been. But I believe as strongly now as I ever have that there will be a winning team in Tampa Bay in the future."
"I think the nucleus of young players is there, I think the payroll will be increased in the future to the point to be competitive, and I think the fans will finally get what they deserve."
"There's no question they've been a disappointment."
"I'm in a group with them, but that doesn't mean I belong with them. Aaron has 200 more home runs than I do and Mays has about 100 more. In my opinion, those guys belong in a class by themselves, and I shouldn't be anywhere close to that."
"As somebody who played the game the right way, who respected the game, respected the history of the game and the players who came before me."
"I don't think too many people would recognize him as Raffy Palmeiro. In fact, he's probably better known for his Viagra commercial than he is as a player, and that's pitiful. It's pitiful for as much as he has done and he has achieved."
"In this game, you have your time where you have to go, but I wasn't just some kid who was in his first year in the big leagues. And you shouldn't even do it to that kid. If that happens, you should do it face-to-face and be professional about it and he wasn't."
"I had to honor [a prior] commitment, and I explained to Danny that this was not necessarily the way that we would prefer to do it. But nonetheless, this was the best we could do under the circumstances."
"I just wish I could have been in this type of situation a long time ago. I feel like the last few years was a job and it shouldn't be that way. I had fun, joking in the clubhouse and talking to the guys. But when it's all said and done at the end of the night, it was just your job. If you did good, great, if you don't, oh well."
"Here we're expected to win. [Friday] night was tough, I wasn't pitching and I had nothing to do with the game and I was [upset] we lost. When I was with the Reds, it was just another game. That's all they're doing right now, is they're trying to get by."
"It's not going to be there for a while, I don't think. The plan for that team, to me, is that they're not looking to win, which is unfortunate because you have a lot of great players on that team, but to me, the atmosphere isn't there. I don't know if it's from upstairs in the organization, but it's a shame because it's the Cincinnati Reds, the oldest team in baseball."
"It kills me, it breaks my heart that these guys have to sit through that. Some guys are going to be lucky enough to be traded by July 31. These guys that do, they are going to call the other guys and tell them they wish they could get out. Every time I talk to these guys, I wish they could get out."
"He's had all these different guys come in during his time and they keep saying, 'Gully can fix him, Gully can fix him.' Give him a top-notch guy where he doesn't have to fix him and he's going to look like a better pitching coach. I was the only one there with him for so long, there were always other guys coming in and out, in and out with him trying to fix them. There are a lot of pitching coaches that have great staffs and don't have to fix them."

Mine Subsidence Repair
Mine Subsidence Repair
Stabilize house damaged by long-wall coal mining.
The homeowners built a new house in West Virginia in 2011, but it was not long before they noticed some problems. By 2012 it was clear that one corner of the house was dropping. Not good, but not unusual in an area known for its coal mines. By the time the ground stabilized in 2013, one basement wall was damaged beyond repair and the wood-framed house above was out of square and damaged.
Robert A. Smith, P.E., Owner of Engineered Foundation Solutions, PLLC in Wheeling, WV, explains, "In this area, mines extract coal with a long-wall mining machine. They take out the entire coal seam and let the earth above collapse down into the void. The mines are deep–maybe 800 feet underground–and there is no way to know how much the surface of the soil will subside. Some homes above mines are not affected at all, others are significantly damaged, some are catastrophically damaged and have to be torn down and rebuilt. In this case, the land under one corner of the new home dropped by 4 inches, which is repairable."
Mine subsidence and the resulting damage are common in the area and Engineered Foundation Solutions regularly does remediation work, but repairs do not begin right away. "We first visited the site in August of 2012 and took readings with a laser level. The house was definitely subsiding, but (for a coal mine issue) we always advise our customers to wait at least two years before doing any type of remediation work in order to allow the ground to settle. During the summer of 2014, the were called back and re-evaluated the situation again. One of the basement walls was catastrophically damaged and had to be replaced and along with another wall, supports were needed for stabilization."
"When it comes to mine subsidence, a steel piering solution, such as helical piles or resistance piers, has always been the best solution–hands down."
-Robert A. Smith, P.E., Owner
Engineered Foundation Solutions, PLLC
The engineering design for the Atlas Resistance® Piers was performed by S&P Engineering, Inc, a sister company to
Engineered Foundation Solutions. Fortunately, the soil at the residence was nearly perfect and each of the 12 piles met the required resistance at nearly the same depth–7 feet.
Work conditions were good, but the customer had some requirements for installation. The homeowners had just poured a new concrete driveway and sidewalk as well as recently had a new deck installed. Naturally they did not want any large machinery on-site tearing up the new additions. "This wasn't a problem because Atlas Resistance Piers don't require big machines and, obviously, we could not get a big machine into the basement, anyway," explains Smith.
Atlas Resistance Piers were installed outside of the house along one wall and inside the basement along another wall. To get to the footer, workers dug down on the outside of the house and cut through the concrete floor in the basement. Workers undermined the footer, where necessary, to mount the brackets and prepare for pile installation. The bracket is bolted to the underside of the footer and extends out besides the footer. The piers are installed vertically, through the bracket. Unlike Helical Piles, which are screwed in, Atlas Resistance® Piers are forced into the ground hydraulically.
Smith explains, "You use a hydraulic driver with a piston. The weight of the structure supplies the that opposite reaction and it forces the pier into the ground."
Smith and his team installed 12 piers that were all 3-1/2 inch diameter, round pipe, piers and each installation required one extension rod.
The piers are driven in until the desired PSI rating is reached. At the Jones' home, the design called for 4,500 PSI. All but one reached 5000 PSI at 7 feet. That works out to about 44,700 pounds of support per pier.
Work started September 22, 2014 and was completed in a week, on September 29th
Key Benefits
In this case, the resistance piers were the best, but not only, solution. Smith points out, "When it comes to mine subsidence, a steel piering solution, such as helical piles or resistance piers, has always been the best solution–hands down. However in the customer's eyes, it is not always the least expensive solution. So, we compete against the contractors who will basically come in, tear out a foundation wall or concrete footing, and start over again. My concern as an engineer is that just replacing the concrete footing doesn't guarantee the soil is stable underneath the footing."
Besides guaranteed stabilization, another major benefit for these homeowners was low vibration and minor noise. "We
installed while the homeowner was sleeping after working the night shift. He came home at 7:00 AM, went to bed, and slept while we worked. Once we got the footer chipped away, the only noise was from the hydraulic ram, which is about as noisy a household generator sitting in the yard," explains Smith.

Mr. Leonsis agreed to take a few questions over the phone Wednesday, before a 3-2 come from behind Capitals win in Los Angeles that evening. Washington faces off against the San Jose Sharks at the HP Pavilion on Friday. [Q] There have been a couple of recent negative articles about the NHL on OLN. And a mention that the ratings dropped. [TL] I think it has just become... The way the press works, that is why I like working with people like you. There is a herd mentality. If a major publication writes something, it gives permission for everyone else to write it. Even if it is not based on facts.read on, quite a lengthy interview but well worth your time...

AJAX IS BACK!!! Plus we have a new wrestler called Joe who is a friend of Angels, they capture alligators together. Angel and Joe are good friends but you would never know it how they act. They got into a fight over the alligator they caught right outside our doors. Then a massive real battle took place. There are lots of brawling, submission holds, bearhugs, boston crabs, and serious intense mat grappling. Ajax, hears the noise and busts threw the door and sees Angel and gets pissed because of what Angel did to his brother Batar. Now the beating really begins. Joe and Ajax take turns putting Angel in some of the most punishing submission holds I've seen here at Thunder's Arena. It's a domination match now with 2 against 1 and Angel is all by himself in this battle. You'll see him choked slammed, stretched, gut punched, bearhugged, body scissors, head scissors and over and over he's the victim of one of the most amazing beatdowns we have ever filmed. Will Angel survive? I don't think so after being submitted again, and again, and again.
Batar vs Billy the Kid
Gut punching, bearhugs, and intense sweaty mat wrestling is the best way to sum up this match. One of the best mat wrestling videos I have seen in a long time. Billy is a former state champion from Alabama and he is training now to be a fighter in UFC. He likes to tear people up and really hurt people, but once he has you down on the ground he wants to grind it out and get that submission at all costs. Batar really cranks it up with an over the knee backbreaker and body scissors to help destroy Billy with his massive thighs. These are two former high school champions so they use all the mat moves like Saturday night ride or double leg grapevine as it's called in other parts of the country. This is seriously a sweaty, all out match that you won't find at those "other" companies. This is a match to watch to see who has that heart of a champion, never give up style match. Our guys wrestle for real and these two gave there all in blood, sweat, and tears to win total domination.

The uranium market has been on fire over the past year. The spot price has risen from $20 to $113 since 2004. And now, with uranium futures available to trade on the Nymex starting today, the speculators will join in, as well as the uranium producers who are looking to hedge. It's important to take a look at the stocks that might be affected, and how. On the April 13 broadcast of CNBC's "Mad Money," Jim Cramer said there are two plays that can take advantage of the fact that Wall Street had not yet priced in uranium's cost at over $100, and the expense of producing it at $50 per pound if you extract it from phosphate. Check them out at
Cramer's Stealthy Uranium Plays . Of the two, Cramer said he likes Mosaic Company ( MOS) better than CF Industries Holdings ( CF). "Mosaic is the largest producer of phosphate on earth," Cramer said. "Mosaic has got the phosphate, and phosphate has got the uranium." On the down side, Barron's on April 17 wrote about how supply disruptions and dwindling inventories have severely hurt companies like Exelon ( EXC), which have to purchase uranium. "Operators in regulated electricity markets probably will be allowed to recover the higher costs of uranium via higher rates for customers," Barron's wrote. "But nuclear operators in competitive markets, like Exelon, Entergy ( ETR), FPL Group ( FPL) and Dominion Resources ( D), will see higher fuel costs deplete profit margins." For more of Barron's insight, go to Stockpickr's Who Will Get Hurt by Higher Uranium Costs? blog. Scroll down the right to see the "Hate list," stocks that are negatively being affected.

Forms not loading properly - URGENTAsked by ebartosh on November 17, 2015 at 11:50 AM
Good morning,
None of our forms are loading properly. Is there an issue with the JotForm server?
For example, on our form https://form.jotform.com/40635282858967, please see the attached screenshot of how it is loading in both IE and Chrome. It took about 3 minutes to even load this much, and is not letting us submit.
Your prompt attention to this is greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Hi all, Amanda here. I have been putting off writing about the last member of this fur-family, Josephine. Not because she is a trouble maker or boring (no way on both counts!) but mostly because she is new to me. Josephine is the baby of the pack (although at somewhere around the age of 8 she is no baby!) and I just haven't had as much time to get to know her as the others.
Here is what I do know about the beautiful Josephine. Baby Cakes is her nickname, and she likes to eat (so I would have to say that is appropriate!). When we come in from outside, she is the first one to get in her "spot" for a treat. She is pretty laid back like the other girls, but she has a fierce streak in her when anyone gets "in her face." Turns out this family of dogs is built around mutual respect and understanding–everyone respects each other's boundries and understands that ultimately Mom and Dad are in charge. Not that there is never any plays for power 🙂
Josephine is happy to sit by the window and bark at the world. And what a bark! It is loud and deep…very effective! She is a great Pyrenees and so her job in life is to protect and guard. She takes that job very seriously; she makes sure her Mom and Dad know when the mail comes, when a car goes by, when the other dogs are outside, even when there is a squirrel running around the yard! Unfortunately for Josephine, Huxley also feels that his job is to protect the family and therefore they don't always see eye to eye on who should take the first watch 🙂
I have spent a few evenings at this house and Josephine was so amazing at keeping me abreast of noises and potential threats. When everyone else was sleeping, she was on point to make sure everyone was safe and sound. I found that if she could see me, she could relax a little and get some rest herself; so we spent a good portion of time in the living room sleeping. When she heard something, she could look up and see that I was okay before going back to her slumbers 🙂 The perfect guardian.
That is it for this family, although they are foster parents so I usually am introduced to temporary family members. Josephine is no longer a foster, Mom and Dad just knew their family was not complete without this Grande Chien des Montagnes ("the big dog of the mountains"). I am so glad!

I'm having issues successfully scanning my ASA firewall with SNMP. Any suggestions?
Aug 6, 2010 at 2:26 UTC
Very tru. 5.0 is still in beta for a few more weeks. But you are welcome to try the beta (in a seperate install) and use your current data to try v3.
This topic was created during version 4.7.
The latest version is 7.5.00101.

Thanks, Should I use SNMP 1 or 2c on the Cisco ADSM GUI?
Aug 6, 2010 at 2:05 UTC
Looks like mine is 1.
Changed it to 2 so we'll see what it does.
Spiceworks 5.0 will support v3 though so keep that in mind too.
Aug 6, 2010 at 2:13 UTC
IT Journey, LLC is an IT service provider.
Spiceworks 5.0 will support SNMP 3.0 like benhar said, as well as HTTP config downloads/uploads/backups.
There are some details here:
The ASA isn't specifically listed, but I'm sure it will be covered.
Aug 6, 2010 at 2:13 UTC
I tried it at 1 and 2c and the response I get when testing is: Test Failes: test failed. Which, according to SpiceWorks, is trying to connect to a non-SNMP device with a SNMP account??? I'm on version 7 of the Cisco IOS on the ASA also... would that make a difference?
Thanks - Tim
