Self-Driving Cars – A Reality?
Like the Industrial Revolution of years gone by, we are on the cusp of another revolution that is set to change everything. The Automation Revolution has slowly been on its way for decades, but it is only now that we are finding uses for automated technology that are beyond factories. Human resources staff can use software to automate payroll and other tasks; we can develop scripts and macros to automate a lot of jobs on the computer. Logistics is also a field heavily impacted by automation as robotics help pack and dispatch goods. There are more examples of automation right now than before. That trend will carry on moving upwards as well.
How does this affect cars? Well – easily. Self-driving cars are becoming more commonplace in conversations taking place regarding automation and the future of driving. The near future as well – Lyft, one of the ride-hail apps that compete with Uber and others wants the majority of its trips to be in self-driving cars within four years. That's not long away. Not at all.
As with anything remotely, new safety will always be a question and that's true for self-driving cars as well. Tesla's Model S was involved in a fatal crash that raised concerns over the true safety of driverless cars. However, that was during a test-phase, using prototype code with a prototype car, but still – these tests shouldn't have life or death at the end of them! Technology isn't perfect, and concerns over coding and glitches have been raised – especially so if a flaw with an automatic driverless car means a crash! The Tesla case was strange, as the driver was reported to have been watching a DVD at the time – but what we do know is that neither the car, nor the driver noticed the dangerous situation occurring. Truly a worry. It does look like anyone in possession of a driverless car will need to be ready to assume control at any point and any driver under the influence will still need one of the top DUI lawyers – any driver will still need to have their wits about them in a driverless car. Just in case…
Google, on the other hand – are making massive advances with safe driverless cars. Tesla's Elon Musk is arguing for self-driving cars to refuse to let humans take the wheel, as human error should be removed from driving. Google are taking a bit of a different approach. Google's cars have been involved in accidents, but most of them have been due to other human drivers. It's a strong point in favor of an AI chauffeur. By 2030 it is expected that self-driving vehicles will make up the majority of car sales in the United States. It will certainly reduce the amount of road traffic accidents, but unfortunately, they cannot be wiped out. Nearly all road collisions are caused by human error; this won't happen if cars are not controlled by humans. However, will self-driving cars be totally safe? No – the road is dangerous, but self-driving cars will be a reality, and they will be safer.
The Best Safety Features On Today's Roads
Source: Wikimedia
These days, cars come with all kinds of techie bells and whistles. Some of these are genuinely useful and practical, whereas others are useless gimmicks. However, one thing we literally can't get enough of is safety features. With airbags and emergency braking now becoming universal standards, manufacturers are pushing towards new frontiers of vehicle safety. Here are some of the recent technologies that are making our roads safer…
Blind Spot Detection
On the surface, blind spot detection is a pretty simple feature. It's basically just a light on your wing mirror that blinks whenever a vehicle or other object is in your blind spot. In some cars, it also gives out an auditory alert so that you know not to change lanes just yet. As simple as the concept is, this is a real game changer for vehicle safety. Countless fatal car accidents are caused by improper lane changing. We're sure you can think of at least one time where you've gone to change lanes, only to suddenly jerk back when you suddenly realize there was a car in your blind spot. This will also avoid any incidents involving cyclists and pedestrians somewhere outside your field of vision.
Rear-View Cameras
This is another remarkably simple feature, and comes as standard in many cars these days. If you've been driving with the help of a rear-view camera for long enough, it might be pretty mind-boggling to think about how we managed to get by before this tech hit the market. Seeing everything behind you on a screen is incredibly handy for getting out of tight parking spaces, and saves you from hitting anyone or anything as you reverse out of your driveway. The government recognizes the value of this, and in 2014, the NHTSA made rear-visibility tech mandatory for all new vehicles, effective May 2018.
Lane-Keeping Assist
Here's another piece of tech designed to cut down on the amount of accidents caused by poor lane changing. When it's activated, lane-keeping assist technology will stop you from drifting off into another driver's lane. Cameras detect the lane markings in order to keep you in the center of yours. If the system detects that you're straying too far to the left or the right markings, it will subtly adjust your steering and get your car back into the proper position.
Heads-Up Displays
One of the things that makes driving inherently dangerous is that you're constantly having to glance away from the road, and look down at a phone or an infotainment system to check your map. This is not only irritating, but extremely dangerous as well. However, increasingly common heads-up displays are gradually phasing this problem out, by projecting navigation information onto the windshield, right in front of your eyes. With this tech in place, you'll never have take your eyes off the road even for a fraction of a second. This may sound trivial, but in high-risk situations, a moment is all it takes to turn a drive into a potentially fatal catastrophe!
What Do Self-Driving Trucks Mean For The Freight Industry?
A couple of decades ago, self-driving vehicles were the stuff of science fiction; the kind of thing that's only seen in over-the top, action-packed films. However, today, they're getting very close to becoming a reality. While most companies experimenting with this technology are focussing on consumer passenger vehicles, one firm, Daimler, has begun testing for the first-driving semi-truck. Here, we'll take a closer look at what this means for the company, and the trucking industry as a whole.
Source: Pixabay
Although most of the news we see has been focussing on Google's self-driving project, Daimler has been making considerable strides forward, and just might beat Google to their place in the market. Perfecting the technology for a self-driving freight truck is a marginally simpler affair, as long-haul trucks spend the majority of their time on long stretches of highway and freeway. As a result, Google's struggling towards its target to release their self-driving vehicles by the year 2020, while Daimler's Freightliner Inspiration truck has already been officially licensed to operate on public highways in Nevada, USA.
The initial reaction from many people who work in the long-haul and truck servicing industries has been one of panic. With self-driving trucks that are becoming so sophisticated so quickly, many in these sectors assume that their jobs are at risk. While it's uncertain what this tech will mean for these kinds of jobs, it's clear that self-driving trucks are far too valuable to turn back on themselves. In the US, heavy trucks represent around 20% of total transportation fuel, but self-driving trucks may be capable of reducing fuel bills by 4-7%. With most long-haul trucks travelling hundreds of thousands of miles through their useful life, this translates into thousands of dollars in savings for the industry every year! Regardless of what it means for workers, the money is simply too much to turn away from.
Daimler, in partnership with Peloton Technology, is leading the way in developing truck platoons that can further reduce the massive cost of fuel, and haul more freight at a time than was ever possible before. While a whole convoy of driverless trucks might sound pretty over the top, it's technically very feasible. There would be a lead truck, with a single driver in the cab, whose job it would be to lead a convoy of twelve or so trucks along their route. Peloton's platooning technology allows two or more trucks to connect through a cloud infrastructure, and uses safety features such as active braking, which is already something found in a range of consumer vehicles on the road. While the lead driver would have control over all the trucks in this model, drivers would still be needed to negotiate highway exits, tricky urban streets, and backing up into loading bays. While this is expected to help with the western world's truck driver shortage, it's still unclear if any working truckers will lose their jobs to driverless tech.
Self-driving cars still have a long way to go before they become a common sight on our roads, but self-driving trucks are speeding on towards mass production.

I have ordered this supplement along with Life Extension, European Leg solution. They both worked great! I took both for 3 months and now taking for one more month to conceal my results. My legs look absolutely normal: no visible veins at all! No swollen, no pain! I can walk longer without urge to sit caused by pain. Amazingly spider veins on my cheeks and around nose disappeared! Thank you for so great product! I would definitely advise everybody to try it! But do not expect changes tomorrow - give yourself 4 months at least! Get well soon!

This is a great herb combo for help with circulation, but it is very heavy on the ginger. Take it with a meal and you'll be fine. If you take it on an empty stomach, you may find yourself belching ginger. Still, though, you can't beat the price, and iHerb's service is terrific as always.

But for surgical intervention, I will always have varicose veins on both my legs - one of which is meandering across my right knee. My inner left calf muscle bears veins that protrude from time to time too. I notice my legs don't get so 'tissue-tense' and tight in those areas. They feel more relaxed - two pluses for me. The Veno-Care capsules are smaller than the DiosMin Complex made by Life Time which I have on hand but have put to the side. The Life Time Diosmin did eliminate leg cramps altogether which can't be said for the Power-Herbs, Veno-Care. That said, I have reordered the Power-Herbs, Veno-Care product.

Webinar: Spurring Innovations in Credit Counseling: Lessons from the Smart Growth Innovation Program
*Please note SFCDC is not the organizer of this event.
"Reputable nonprofit credit counseling agencies are available around the country to help consumers worried about unsecured debt. Unfortunately, the nonprofit credit counseling industry is under pressure. Over the past thirty years, regulatory changes, reduced in consumer demand and market competition brought on a wave of consolidations and closures.
To help address these issues, Capital One launched the Smart Growth Innovation Program in 2015. The Program partnered a cohort of credit counseling agencies with Prosperity Now to discover a challenge facing clients, design a set of solutions that might address the challenge, and test the solution to assess its viability.
Please join Prosperity Now for a webinar on Wednesday, July 19 from 3-4:30 pm EDT to learn more about the credit counseling industry and the Smart Growth Innovation Program.
This webinar will feature representatives from Capital One, members of the Prosperity Now Applied Research team and the three nonprofit credit counseling agencies involved in the Smart Growth Project:
- Clarifi
- Guidewell Financial Solutions
- Lutheran Social Services of Minnesota
Join us for this webinar to learn more about innovative ways credit counseling agencies are dealing with challenges facing their clients and their industry!"

If you hadn't noticed it's finally December, which means I need to figure out what I'm getting everyone for Christmas. Since I'm poor and crafty I have been DIYing my Christmas gifts for the past few years. Yeah, I'm THAT friend...
|Courtesy MSN Living
What I've been doing the last few years is just painting some sugar cookies, throwing them in a tin and calling it done. I really wanted to put a different spin on it this year and I've decided on ...*drumroll* ... a holiday cookie/cake pop bouqet!! YAY!
With the bouquets in mind I struck gold while shopping at Michael's the other day. They were having a 50% off sale on Wilton Christmas stuff! I found these awesome little candy cookie molds:
- You end up with an Oreo...*ahem* "sandwich cookie"... coated with candy melts with a nice little snowflake or Christmas tree design on it. Perfect for my Christmas bouquet! While, I did notice that they didn't have a place on the mold to put a stick, I figured that I could figure out a way to make it work. I through them in my cart, along with some peppermint candy melts and some lollipop sticks and I was on my way!
- I was like a giddy little kid waiting to try this out. Since I am taking a bit of a break from wedding crafts, I had nothing else to do tonight so I laid everything out. I even grabbed my camera to document every bit of the awesomeness for you guys. I was so excited... I had it all planned out... It just HAD to work.... (have you figured out yet that my confidence was about to come crashing down?)
- I melted about half of the bag of peppermint candy melts.
- I spooned in just enough of the melted candy to cover the bottom of each little mold. Once they chilled, I was going to pop these little bad boys out and stick them to an oreo on a stick that I had already dipped in more peppermint candy melt. It was going to blend perfectly, and it would still have the precious little holiday design on it! (I'm sure a few people are already laughing at me... 'HEY! I didn't know, okay!)
- I put my molds in the fridge to set up!
- I was shocked that after only about 20 minutes my molds had set up. I popped those out of the fridge and melted the other half a bag of candy melts.
- With a simple twist of the mold my little coins popped right out. I was ready to begin dipping my cookies!
- For my first cookie I just dipped him right in the melted candy, and pulled back nothing but an empty stick. Oh yeah... cookie came CLEAN off. Whatever... that cookie was weak! He was slowing me down!
- I didn't really want to risk losing another cookie to my quicksand-like candy melt so I decided to just spoon it on the cookie and smooth it out. The cookies tended to crumble and the candy melt didn't really want to stick to it, but I finally got one completely covered! Then I pressed one of my little coins on it and viola....
- I decided to scrap the stick idea and just use the mold how it was actually intended. However, even that was a bit of a bust since the melt had thickened so it just kind of globbed up the sides.
Take it all in! It really was a glorious fail. I will say on a serious positive note that this fail is purely visual. They taste AMAZING! I think they taste a bit like peppermint s'mores. So when all is said and done I can most assuredly tell you that chocolate cream Oreo's go very well with peppermint candy!
If any of you much more knowledgeable readers knows a thing or two about how to make this work please let me know! I hope you enjoyed my fail.

Multiple custom menus – WP 3.0
I am sure this topic is somewhere in this forum, however, I am unable to locate. I simply would like to add multiple menus, but am having difficulty with the syntax. I attempted to use the following – which failed.
if ( function_exists( 'wp_nav_menu' ) ){ if (function_exists('add_theme_support')) { add_theme_support('nav-menus'); add_action( 'init', 'register_my_menus' ); function register_my_menus() { register_nav_menus( array( 'main-menu' => __( 'Main Menu' ) 'utility-menu' => __( 'Utility navigation' ) ) ); } } }
I'm a newbie so I maybe I'm wrong, but I was just asking about menus/navbars yesterday and here's what I learned.
WP 3.0 now has menu building capabilities accessible through the admin:
Appearance > menus. It allows for multiple menus.
I designed my own theme so I had to "enable" menus. What you might have right now is the message that your theme isn't set up to work with the menus admin or words to that effect. That's what I had.
I followed the instructions from here:
and added the code to my functions.php and to relevant templates.
I'm building one main menu, then have a secondary menu for just blog related items (my site is a business site with a blog, not a blog with some static pages). So my second menu is going into a second sidebar just on blog related pages. I've used widgets for that menu and it's interacting just fine with my main menu.
Now I have to figure out the proper way to use the options IN the admin – menu, to style my navbar, but that's another issue. I'll be posting that question.
Hope this gets you started!vytaulla51
Oops, I was so happy to be able to help someone that I didn't really read closely enough…
It looks like you're already aware of the menu functionality and are just trying to get the function to work.
FWIW, here's what I used:
function register_my_menus() { register_nav_menus( array( 'navbar-menu' => __( 'Navbar Menu' ), 'blog-menu' => __( 'Blog Menu' )) ); } add_action( 'init', 'register_my_menus' );
Is that what you need?

Lori Redell
Ms. Redell is a very difficult teacher. In the class she wastes a lot of time, whether it be because she can't use the technology or she arrives late. Her exams are very difficult, and any wrong questions get no explanation as to why they are wrong. She often makes mistakes during her teaching of Geometry.
She teaches the advanced section so of course its hard. I feel like she cares about getting us ready for higher math and doesn't just want to make it easy so we like her. I like her ok.
She can be really confusing and she seemed to fumble on her words... haven't had her in a long time, but I do hope she has gotten better.
She's very nice, and I love that she bakes for us... but as far as teaching the material goes, she doesn't really know what she's doing.
I have learned a lot this year in SAP Geometry. It is not an easy class, but it is worth the work.

On Sunday my dear friend Boychik came up from San Diego to visit and to introduce me to his new boyfriend. CuteFilmNerd and I ended up double-dating for the day, starting off eating at My Vegan in Pasadena (thanks to the aforelinked recommendation in Friend Polarbeast's restarurant blog), then we hied over to The Huntington Library, Art Collections and Botanical Gardens. We only had time for a brief overview of the gardens, which means that CuteFilmNerd and I will have to go back soon to see even more (and take even more photos). Mind you, I've been to the Huntington several times (my first time being a kamikaze film shoot in '92 with the filmmaker I was dating at the time [I also spent the day there with my dear friend Linda and my mom the first year Linda visited the U.S.]) , but it never stops being gorgeous. I'm sure there are still parts of it I still haven't seen.
Naturally, I took photos, starting with the parking lot:
Here are my favorites (there are many):
And, of course, the narcissist and her honey:

In the late 1990s, the Atlanta-based multifamily developer began constructing the now-successful Post Midtown Square -- a 479-unit apartment complex in the heart of Midtown. The project was built when the area was still seen as questionable in the minds of other investors.
Not only did the company play a large part in a pioneering effort to bring Midtown back to life, but Post Midtown Square also made a bold statement with its mixed-use concept of several stories of upscale apartments atop ground-level retail. Occupancy has been strong at the multi-building complex located at 302 Gray and was recently recorded at 92 percent, according to real estate research firm O'Connor & Associates.
However, a construction glitch that only recently came to light is now causing Post Properties some unexpected grief.
Improper installation of the stucco and masonry on three of the buildings' facades has led to water leaks in some of the units and common areas, says Janie Maddox, a Post spokeswoman.
To correct the problem, and to prevent the possibility of new damage, Post began demolition and reconstruction work on the affected facades earlier this year.
Portions of the buildings are now wrapped in scaffolding while they are being reskinned to rectify the leakage problem.
Maddox would not discuss the company's attempt to collect reimbursement from the original contractor for the reconstruction work.
An e-mailed response to questions reads, "Post is currently communicating with the contractor and its insurer to settle the claim amicably."
Maddox says work should be completed later this year.
Meanwhile, residents are being given one to two months free rent for the inconvenience, according to a tenant who did not want to be identified.
Commercial tenants in the development are also negotiating for concessions while construction affects their businesses.
Real estate roundup
The investment sales division of Holliday Fenoglio Fowler has been chosen to broker one of the largest multifamily portfolio sales in Houston's history.
Flagship Properties Corp., a heavyweight apartment development firm led by David Mincberg, is unloading 18 Class B multifamily communities located mainly in Houston. One of the properties is in Austin and another in Dallas.
The entire portfolio comprises 5,359 units and is valued at more than $170 million, according to Jim Savage, senior managing director of HFF in Houston. Savage and HFF Director Bill Miller are marketing the properties, which were built in the 1970s and 1980s.
Houston-based Flagship Properties has developed or acquired more than 20,000 multifamily units in Texas and Georgia.
Prominent Houston trial attorney John O'Quinn is a major equity investor in Flagship's real estate.
In addition to the plum disposition assignment, HFF's investment sales group recently closed three multifamily property sales transactions, totaling roughly 2,000 units with an estimated value of $130 million.
And just last month, Susan Hill and Scott Galloway of the firm's mortgage banking division orchestrated a major refinancing deal for Greenspoint Town Center.
The north Houston property, encompassing more than 2 million square feet of Class A office and retail space, leveraged $145 million for its owners -- General Motors Pension Trusts and Houston-based Hines Interests.
Northwestern Investment Management Co. provided the financing at a fixed rate for 10 years.
? Houston industrial firm Midway Cos. has developed and leased a 114,000-square-foot building in the Central Green Business Park.
Elite Airfreight Inc. recently took possession of the space in the new facility, located at 16605 Air Center Blvd.
The building is an expansion for the cargo firm, which already occupied 50,000 square feet in the industrial park, says John Duffie, a principal with Midway.
Midway developed the building for Liberty Property Limited Trust.
Industry observers say the industrial real estate market near Bush Intercontinental Airport will likely remain strong in the coming years, due to the airport's billion-dollar expansion and its access to the Hardy Toll Road.
? Means Knaus has struck up a close relationship with Wells Real Estate Funds of Atlanta.
In addition to managing the Stone & Webster building in the Enclave Business Park, the Houston real estate firm was recently awarded the management contract for the Park Ten Centre Building located off Interstate 10 in the Energy Corridor. The property is 100 percent leased to Transocean Deepwater Offshore Drilling Inc. and Newpark Drilling Fluids Inc.
Both properties are owned by Wells Real Estate, a real estate investment management firm that acquires Class A office properties leased to long-term, high-credit tenants.
Means Knaus also is working with the investment firm to develop a 155,000-square-foot office building on a five-acre tract of Wells-owned land adjacent to the Stone & Webster building.
Houston architecture firm Kirksey has already designed the building.
The only missing piece is the tenant.

I've finally decided to use Ubermallow as my daily driver. Ubermallow is slimmed down version of stock ROM with limited & simple customization. Layers and Xposed are not my thing as they goof up ROMs if you don't set them up properly.
I'm a big fan of Kylo, Franco & ElementalX kernels. I've contributed by buying their apps on play store. It's time to test them both. The base will be Ubermallow rom + kernel.
My plan of action.
2 days test for each kernel.
Better battery stats and user experience on daily basis.
My usage pattern.
LTE always ON.
2 hours of calls.
1.5 hours of bluetooth audio.
And the usual.. videos, browsing, whatsapp, telegram etc.

The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, ICE, has launched a telephone hotline for detainees held by state or local police.
Detainees can call the toll free hotline at (855) 448-6903 if they believe they are U.S. citizens or have wrongly been accused of a crime. The number will be in operation 24 hours a day, seven days a week by ICE staff with several interpreters. After prisoners call in, ICE personnel will forward their information to proper ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations offices for action.
The ICE has come under fire for allowing local police agencies to arrest suspected illegal immigrants. Under the 287(g) program, police can be deputized to turn suspects over to immigration authorities when local police are not normally allowed to enforce federal laws.
If you are an immigrant and are having problems with your legal status, contact the Austin immigration lawyers of the Law Office of William Jang, PLLC today at 512-323-2333 for more information on what we can do for you.

Printer Repair Questions? Ask IT Technicians for Answers ASAP
Hi, thank you for contacting JustAnswer.com. My name is Russell. I will do my best to provide the right answer to your question.
The WPS button refers to 'WPS Setup' or 'wireless express setup'. You press the button and, theoretically at least, if not always in practice, the wireless configuration just does itself.
The 'access point' means the local WiFi router, the local wireless box, the local network box that wireless-using devices can access internet through, that sort of thing.
If you have no local router (or WiFi capable router/modem, sometimes) box, there is no local access point. But many wireless-capable printers can be configured to work wirelessly from a computer that is WiFi capable, without an access point... directly printing from computer to WiFi-capable printer.
Additionally: The WPS button is a button (usually a 'contact pressure' button rather than a mechanical button) on the router, that you press to configure your router for access.
It can also be a button on your printer, which when pressed at the right time configures your printer for printing access.
Which of these do you need to find? if the one on your printer, and if your printer is a Canon MX532, there is no WPS button on it - rather you need to look for one on the WiFi router box.
If your model of WiFi router box has no WPS button easily discernible upon it, then it has none, for sure, regardless of its model (they are usually very visible, for good reason.) In which case, your printer will have to be set up for wireless in a rather slightly more laborious fashion.
Let me know if I can help you with that. Thanks.

WTI crude oil prices (USOIL) turned higher from support in the past week and have erased a bulk of losses from the prior week. A weekly close near highs has set a bullish tone, however, important resistance overhead hints that oil prices will face choppy trading conditions in the week ahead.
Oil prices held above $44.19 support and pushed back towards prior highs for the month in the past week. Wednesday's Energy Information Administration (EIA) report led to some bearish pressure but following a turn on Thursday, a recovery wiped the losses as a result of the report.
The EIA reported a draw of 7.56 million barrels versus an expected 2.85 million barrels. This follows a draw of 6.30 million barrels reported in the prior week. The significant draw was undermined by the American Petroleum Insititute's (API) report on Tuesday as they reported a draw of 8.13 million barrels. Nevertheless, the decline in inventories seen over the past two weeks has restored confidence in oil bulls.
The latest COT report revealed a second consecutive weekly build in the NYMEX crude net long position. The net long was reported at 358,025 contracts in the week to July 11th, up from 341,047 contracts in the prior week. The rise in the net long is attributed mostly to a short covering as the gross short declined for a second consecutive week to 270,984 contracts from 292,755 contracts in the prior week.
A combination of a hold of important support and some momentum behind the recovery in the past week suggest further upside for oil prices. However, the new week will start out near important resistance. A horizontal level at $47.07 was critical support in the second half of March and had acted as resistance at the start of this month. The level will be the first major hurdle to the upside. Further resistance is seen from the upper line of a declining trend channel that has been in play since March, currently found near $48.20
The first level of support is found at $45.27 which was prior support in early June. Support at $44.19 is critical in the current recovery and is not likely to be tested in the week ahead. A break of the level would tend to shift the near-term bullish sentiment seen in the past week.

'American Horror Story,' Season 1, Episode 10, 'Smoldering Children': TV Recap
This week we find out how Larry got his burns, what Tate did before he shot up his school, and how long Violet's been absent from school. Don't worry, that last point is actually pretty important.
We open in 1994 with a shot of a beautiful glazed ham festooned with pineapples. Constance, Addy, Tate and Larry are all sitting around the dinner table in a scene of forced familial idyll. Tate says grace, only with several digs at Constance and Larry. Despite Larry's best efforts at playing the good patriarch, Tate refuses to play along. Addy seems receptive, however, especially after Larry announces the family will be seeing him in a community theater production of "Brigadoon." Tate explodes at this, accusing Larry of killing his brother Beau. Which Larry did, of course.

Charles Wilkin's career as a collage artist began in college, when he arrived late to a drawing seminar equipped only with some poorly printed photos from a previous class. Rather than marking him as unprepared, the teacher suggested he use the photos to make a collage. By the end of class, it was clear he had found his calling. The collages he makes today, often perceived as dark or disturbing, have evolved from abstractions into something more narrative and conceptually analytical. "I find that revealing the ugliness of human behavior helps make finding the joy and beauty in life easier and much more meaningful," he says.
Despite the dark subject matter of his collages, Wilkin began to feel that an element of danger was missing from his life. He considered taking up skydiving but when he couldn't find anyone to join him, decided instead on beekeeping. "After taking a class, I quickly realized the 'danger' of beekeeping was not even remotely close to what's involved in jumping out of a plane at 15,000 feet," he laughs. Nevertheless, it turned out to be the inspiration he was seeking and has given him a renewed sense of direction, calmness and clarity. "Beekeeping has taught me the importance of living in the moment and has influenced my work in ways I've yet to understand completely, which makes it so rewarding."
"I find that revealing the ugliness of human behavior helps make finding the joy and beauty in life easier and much more meaningful."
Living upstate also comes with its own elements of danger. "Watching a bear flatten himself like a piece of paper and slip between the wires of the electric fence around my bee yard is hands-down the most exciting wildlife experience I've ever had," recalls Wilkin. "Luckily my yelling and screaming—from a distance—changed his mind about helping himself to my honey." The delicious harvest from his 12 hives gets packaged in jars under Wilkin's Two Queens label and sold online and at Maison Bergogne and Heirloom Acres, both in Narrowsburg.
Although the contrast between his city and country lives—and all the commuting that requires—sometimes feels like a vicious cycle, Wilkin is grateful to have both. Ultimately, he'd like to be based full-time in Narrowsburg, the place he considers his true home. "My life upstate is more about really living, loving, slowing down and taking time to reconnect with the things that matter most." Throw in a little danger and what more could anyone want?

A job description serves two purposes for a company, the first of which is for hiring employees while the second is for employees after they have been hired. The job description lets those individuals interested in a job know what the job entails and what types of qualifications are needed in order to apply for the position. Also the job description aids both the employee and the manager in knowing exactly what is expected of the employee and the ability to hold both accountable.
Position Summary
The Six Sigma position, otherwise known as Six Sigma Green Belt or Six Sigma Black Belt, is a position that is tasked with helping the company to improve its operational and administrative processes. The position typically reports to the Operations VP; and as May 2010, the salary ranges from $60,000 to $90,000 annually. The Six Sigma position requires special training in lean principles and the methods for developing and improving processes in operations.
Main Duties and Responsibilities
The position's main responsibility is to facilitate the development and implementation of significant process improvements within the company and when necessary to aid vendors with their processes that directly affect the company's ability to deliver to its customers. The focus of this position is to eliminate waste through the use of lean principles and Six Sigma methods. Also, this position is responsible for tracking and reporting all project progress, successes and failures.
Other Duties and Responsibilities
When not working on improvement projects, the employee is the company's expert on Six Sigma methods and lean principles. The employee provides training to all staff on the methods and practices for improving processes, eliminating waste, improving customer service and adding profit to the bottom line. This includes using tools such as value stream mapping, Kaizen events, root cause analysis and the training of Six Sigma Black Belts.
Minimum Qualifications
The candidate must have Six Sigma Green Belt training or higher, at least 10 years' experience in business management and two or more years' experience in business process analysis. Ideally, the employee will have a B.S. degree in business or operations management and trained others in the Six Sigma methods and practices.
Skills and Abilities
The candidate should have the ability to lead others and facilitate projects from start to finish.

My computer is now working properly [thank you Lucas]. He also fixed my mouse and provided me with entertainment. He was rewarded by being allowed to experience the joys of defatting solution. I'm sure he is eternally grateful.
In other news, Button is still not home, but off in the desert somewhere having a wonderful time and lamenting my absence. As he should. I, on the other hand, have been working. Very hard at all sorts of things. As recently as Monday my supervisor said something along the lines of "No LN for two weeks? Why don't you write the first three chapters of your thesis." Yes. Well. She's not so completely unreasonable as to expect me to manage that in two weeks, but that's not really the point.
Last night there was a game. We were all present, we were all mostly on time. I was hoping to be the last to arrive, but it appears that unless I make a much more concerted effort, it will not happen. What happened? We had a recap of epic proportions that almost covered the entire game from the beginning. And would've, most likely, had Confluence not called us to order. We read a report from Masazumi. Kamenosuke got a letter from his brother and the magistrates got a letter from Mitsukuni detailing his displeasure at the goings on of the town in our absence, in less than so many words. Kamenosuke discovered an interesting feature to the scroll rack Masazumi had given us and we read the rest of the report. We were further interrupted by the presence of a ronin at the gate, asking for us. It was Kiyoko's tall, skinny friend, who doesn't like Ishie for some reason. He had a message for us, from his 'acquaintance'. Sachio appeared to be long-suffering and he certainly was after carrying messages back and forth from the village to us and spending large amounts of time drinking tea with the Tsumae guards. The simple version was that Isawa Hanchero wanted our help, if we'd be so kind as to promise him not to detain him without delay. After Hideo's concerns were overruled, a meeting was arranged for the next morning in a very private place due to Hanchero's 'current appearance'. A fact that did not fill anyone with joy. [For those of you who don't remember, Hanchero is a suspected maho user, on our most-wanted list]. The meeting took place and was decidedly uneventful. We discovered a lot of information, regarding Yashamaru's enemy [apparently Hanchero's enemy as well], the tainted coin I failed to mention previously and how, precisely to kill the oni.
All in all it was most enjoyable, though I could've done with more sleep. And now I'm trying to talk myself into going to the library and looking stuff up [I bought myself a pretty new file in preparation]. Possibly that won't happen today...

Confrontation in the Gulf; BUSH URGES ALLIES TO BEAR 'THEIR FAIR SHARE' OF COSTS OF MILITARY EFFORT IN GULF
By R. W. APPLE Jr., Special to The New York Times
Published: August 31, 1990
WASHINGTON, Aug. 30— Asserting that the ''shape of the post-cold-war world'' was at issue in the Persian Gulf crisis, President Bush said today that he was asking other countries to help pay the multibillion-dollar cost of military operations and economic sanctions in the region.
As the emergency entered its fifth week and Secretary General Javier Perez de Cuellar of the United Nations arrived in Jordan for a mediation effort, Mr. Bush again said he was pessimistic about the search for a diplomatic solution. Mr. Perez de Cuellar, who is to meet on Friday with Iraq's Foreign Minister, Tariq Aziz, described the situation in the Middle East as explosive.
Hostage Release Delayed
In Iraq and Kuwait, American and other Western women and children, whom President Saddam Hussein had promised on Tuesday to release at once, encountered further delays. But late tonight, the Foreign Office in London said Iraq was arranging to fly some British women and children directly to London, and Virgin Atlantic Airways said it had been given permission to fly to Baghdad to pick up others.
Soviet officials, after three weeks of quietly tolerating the buildup of United States military forces in the Persian Gulf, sharply challenged the American presence and questioned whether it might be intended as a permanent foothold in the region. [Page A13.] At a news conference before returning to his vacation home at Kennebunkport, Me., Mr. Bush said, ''The United States has large interests in the balance and has undertaken commitments commensurate with them, and we're more than willing to bear our fair share of the burden.'' He added, ''But we also expect others to bear their fair share.'' [Excerpts, page A11.] Brady and Baker to 'Twist Arms'
American delegations led by Treasury Secretary Nicholas F. Brady and Secretary of State James A. Baker 3d are to be sent soon to West Germany, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Japan, South Korea and the Kuwaiti exile Government to ''twist their arms a bit,'' a ranking official said, for contributions of as much as $25 billion.
The money would defray some of the costs of American troop deployment and naval patrols and help Middle Eastern nations that are suffering hardships because of the United Nations trade embargo against Iraq.
Turkey, Egypt and Jordan are the principal nations that will benefit from the aid program, American officials said. The plan to solicit contributions was put together rapidly, under strong Congressional pressure to set up some form of burden-sharing, and it remains somewhat nebulous.
At a dinner at the White House on Wednesday night for a group of 11 senators and representatives, all old friends of the President, several pressed him to adopt a more aggressive policy, including the removal of President Hussein as the leader of Iraq, several guests said.
Representative John D. Dingell, Democrat of Michigan, said there was ''a clear appreciation that further goals have to be established.'' Senator William V. Roth, Republican of Delaware, commented: ''There were some who spoke quite strongly that we ought to go beyond the goals we have set, that the aggressor ought to be removed.'' Senator Richard G. Lugar, Republican of Indiana, who attended the dinner, has recently expressed that view in public and in private.
But Mr. Bush said today that he had ''stopped short of adding'' the removal of the Iraqi leader to the list of aims of the United States.
New Conditions for Release
The roughly 1,000 American women and children in Iraq and Kuwait have been told that they must submit letters requesting permission to leave, accompanied by Arabic translations and bearing official stamps attesting that all local taxes have been paid, according to Margaret D. Tutwiler, the State Department spokeswoman.
''Once again, Iraqi promises have been followed by new restrictions on foreigners and burdensome procedures,'' Miss Tutwiler said. ''This emotional roller coaster is inhumane and disgraceful.''
The Foreign Office in London said that even as Mr. Hussein was talking about letting people go, he was detaining others. A spokesman said Iraqi troops took 32 Britons from their homes in Kuwait on Wednesday, grouped them with seven others and transported all 39 to Baghdad under armed guard.
At his news conference, Mr. Bush said he was worried about the hostages but declined to say that their vulnerability would deter him from launching any attack on Iraq.
''We cannot permit hostage taking to shape the foreign policy of this country,'' he declared. ''I will not change the policy of the United States to pay homage or to give credibility to this brutal move of staking out citizens and a brutal move of holding people against their will.''
Perez de Cuellar Meeting Delayed
Mr. Perez de Cuellar had been expected to begin his meeting with Mr. Aziz this evening, but the session was postponed until Friday morning. He said he thought the Iraqi Government was ''as eager as we all are to find a just and lasting solution of the problem.''
But he also emphasized that he had no choice but to push Baghdad to accept Security Council resolutions demanding Iraqi withdrawal from Kuwait and release of all hostages.
''These are not my resolutions,'' the United Nations leader said. ''They are Security Council resolutions. I cannot make any concessions on these. I am not a merchant to negotiate.''

Report: Galaxy S6 to have just Two Samsung Apps Pre-installed, Here's the Full List
We've been hearing that Samsung was going to tone down Touchwiz a bit with the Galaxy S6. Actually we heard that it was going to be rebuilt, and a lot of Samsung's apps seem to have gotten the axe. A new report coming out of Sammobile this morning tells us that there will only be two Samsung apps pre-installed on the Galaxy S6. That's S Voice and S Health (Guess they aren't counting the "GALAXY APPS" which is listed in their list of pre-installed apps).
According to Sammobile, these are the apps that will be pre-installed on the Galaxy S6 "S Voice, S Health, Facebook, WhatsApp (download link), Microsoft One Drive, Microsoft One Note, Skype, All Google apps, and GALAXY APPS." So outside of the Microsoft stuff and the S Voice, S Health and Galaxy Apps, its the same apps pre-installed as on every other smartphone out there. It's kind of interesting to see Microsoft getting in on the action here with One Drive, One Note and Skype. But I guess they have finally realized that they need to get users on other platforms, since the Windows Phone platform isn't doing to well.
So about that Project Zero, if all this pans out, Samsung might have a really great year this year. According to all the rumors floating around, it appears that they've really listened to their customers this past year, and might just be giving them what they want. An Aluminum unibody, much less bloat, a redesigned and rebuilt Touchwiz, just to name a few. Samsung will be taking the wraps off of the Galaxy S6 in just a few days in Barcelona at Unpacked. And we'll be there to see exactly what the Korean tech giant has to show us. So make sure you keep it locked to Android Headlines for all for the details.

The effects of drought on several major morphological and anatomical features of leaves were investigated in an attempt to explain the origin of the difference in drought resistance between two olive (Olea europaea L.) cultivars, ('Chemlali' and 'Meski') previously demonstrated to be drought-resistant and drought-sensitive, respectively. Under water deficit conditions, 'Chemlali' maintained higher rates of photosynthetic assimilation and lower rates of transpiration compared to 'Meski'. In the present study, we found cultivar-dependent differences in leaf morphoanatomical adaptations to drought stress. When subjected to water stress, the leaves of 'Chemlali' increased the thickness of their upper palisade and spongy parenchyma by 17% and 22%, respectively, compared with only 9% and 13% in the case of 'Meski'. A thicker palisade parenchyma could contain larger numbers of CO2-fixation sites, while a thicker spongy parenchyma could result in easier diffusion of CO2 to these sites. Furthermore, stomatal density (SD) in 'Chemlali' leaves increased by 25% (vs. 7% for 'Meski' leaves) during drought treatment, which could also enhance the external supply of CO2. Other morpho-structural traits implicated in the control of water loss were enhanced more in 'Chemlali' than in 'Meski' leaves. Under conditions of lower water availability, leaf size decreased by 24% in 'Chemlali' (vs. 15% in 'Meski'), trichome density (TD) increased by 25% (while remaining unchanged in 'Meski'), and the thickness of the upper and lower epidermis increased by 32% and 25%, respectively (while remaining unchanged in 'Meski'). The above morpho-anatomical adaptations should improve the water-use efficiency of the tree. These differential changes in leaf morphology and anatomy can explain, at least in part, the difference in drought resistance between the two cultivars. In particular, the upper palisade parenchyma, the spongy parenchyma, SD, and TD could be considered key structural features of leaves that govern the ability of a tree to withstand water stress. They could therefore be used as criteria to select olive cultivars that are more resistant to drought.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of NaCl-salinity on the physiological attributes in common reed, Phragmites australis (Cav.) Trin. ex Steudel. Plants grew optimally under salinity treatment with standard nutrient solution without added salt and at NaCl concentrations up to 100 mM. Applied for 21 days, NaCl-salinity (300 and 500 mM) caused a significant reduction in growth allocation of all different tissues of P. australis. Shoot growth of reed plants displayed a highly significant correlation with plant-water relations and photosynthetic parameters. The net photosynthetic rate and stomatal conductance of reed plants treated with NaCl-salinity at varying osmotic potential (ψπ) of nutrient solutions were positively correlated, and the former variable also had a strong positive relationship with transpiration rate. Leaf water potential and ψπ followed similar trends and declined significantly as ψπ of watering solutions was lowered. The increase in total inorganic nutrients resulting from increased Na+ and Cl- in all tissues and K+, Ca2+ and Mg2+ concentrations were maintained even at the most extreme salt concentration. Common reed exhibited high K+/Na+ and Ca2+/Na+ selectivity ratios over a wide range of salinities under NaCl-salinity. These findings suggest that reed plants were able to adapt well to high salinities by lowering their leaf ψπ and the adjustment of osmotically active solutes in the leaves. © 2010 Franciszek Górski Institute of Plant Physiology, Polish Academy of Sciences, Kraków.

We are a nonprofit trying to recycle older
computers for basic needs.
Almost all our donations have problems.
We are seeing a lot of nonfunctioning Win 95 sys
(esp when the former owner has tried to upgrade
the OS and failed) and so would like to have a
minimal win 95 OS floppy that we could use for
Has anyone done anything like this?
Any pointers/recommendations welcome!
PS checked the archive to see if anyone had
posted something similar but found nothing.
9/11/2000 (10:04 pm) by admin
Best is to get to a Win98 computer, make a Win98 boot disk. This will allow you to boot the computer with, or without CD-ROM support, and also installs a RAMDISK with all the diagnostic DOS tools you need (namely FDISK and Format).
The boot disk can be made by Finding the Add/Remove Software icon under Control Panel and it is the last tab.
Not sure how more minimal you want, but this will give you all the tools you'll need, but CD-ROM support. If you want an even more minimal disk, get to a Win95 or Win98 dos prompt, insert a floppy disk, and type "sys c: a:" to copy the necessary files to create a basick DOS boot disk, you can then copy over what files you need.

Thanks for the tip but we do have Win 95 and 98
I was unclear in my posting and probably should
have said. What are the essential files for Win
95 to run?
9/12/2000 (2:26 pm) by admin
You can't do that with windows. You have to have the entire OS loaded on the computer for it to run. You can't scale it down to fit on a floppy, like you can with Linux.
9/12/2000 (5:17 pm) by God�
Very true... as 95/98 is based on DOS. It's a bit more than a front end to DOS, but there's no way to fit it onto a floppy (although i don't think you could scale down linux w/X to fit on a floppy either, can you?). There are programs out there like 98lite that let you strip everything possible out of windows (like internet explorer, etc...). I think this can trim the windows install down to 70MB or possible even less....
9/12/2000 (10:16 pm) by admin
OK, I see what you mean. You want the minimum amount of files necessary to run Windows on a machine. Unfortuately, Windows can't fit on one floppy.
What you may try to do it this:
On a fresh hard drive, install Windows with the features you would want on all your computers. Make sure you copy the entire Win9X install folder onto the hard drive.
Second, get a utility like Norton Ghost which can make a clone of the hard disk with Windows on it to a hard drive on one of the computers you are troubleshooting or fixing up.
Connect your drivers in the test computer, boot up Norton Ghost, and in less time than it takes to install Windows, you should be able to clone the OS to your new hard drive. This should be quicker than installing Windows.
