The unfunded liabilities Uncle Sam has incurred on our behalf through already promised entitlements in programs such as Social Security, Medicare and the veterans benefits now exceed by $53 trillion the tax revenues projected to be available to pay for them, says Comptroller General David Walker, who heads the Government Accountability Office.
"I know it is hard to make sense of what 'trillions' means," Walker said. "One way to think about it is this: Imagine we decided to put aside and invest today enough to cover these promises tomorrow. It would take about $455,000 per American household -- or $175,000 for every man, woman and child in the United States."
- Of course, every man, woman and child does not work for pay outside the home: some are too young, some take care of their own children, some are criminals who have actually been locked up in jail, some are ill or incapacitated and some are just lazy.
- When you divide the unfunded costs of promised entitlement benefits by the number of Americans who work full time, says Walker, it equals $410,000 per worker.
- A married couple making $80,000 per year would have to set aside all their income for more than five years to cover their share.
Of course, elected officials in Washington, D.C., have no intention of making Americans working today pay for the entitlement benefits these elected officials are promising to deliver, says Terence P. Jeffrey, editor in chief of CSNnews.com. That would destroy one of the primary incentives politicians have for making these promises, which is to make the voters think that, on net, the politicians are giving them things rather than taking things away.
Some day, says Jeffrey, Americans will look back across the wreckage of our coming fiscal catastrophe and ask: Why didn't our leaders see it coming? The answer will be: They did.

emission of light by certain materials when they are relatively cool. It is in contrast to light emitted from incandescent bodies, such as burning wood or coal, molten iron, and wire heated by an electric current. Luminescence may be seen in neon and fluorescent lamps; television, radar, and X-ray fluoroscope screens; organic substances such as luminol or the luciferins in fireflies and glowworms; certain pigments used in outdoor advertising; and also natural electrical phenomena such as lightning and the aurora borealis. In all these phenomena, light emission does not result from the material being above room temperature, and so luminescence is often called cold light. The practical value of luminescent materials lies in their capacity to transform invisible forms of energy into visible light. Sources and process Luminescence emission occurs after an appropriate material has absorbed energy from a source such as ultraviolet or X-ray radiation, electron beams, chemical reactions, and...READ MORE

The D Block is a prime chunk of spectrum, or airwaves, and public safety officials say it should be used to build their network. But critics of giving the D Block to public safety argue that the spectrum could be leased to higher bidders to raise more revenue for the government. They say public safety agencies should be given other spectrum bands for their network.
"We all recognize that we need a nationwide interoperable public safety network," Eshoo said. "How that is handled, whether the D Block is dedicated, or whether it's handled in a different way, there's a difference of opinion there."
She said she does not know when the committee will vote on the spectrum legislation and that negotiations are continuing.
"I don't think this is going to be resolved in our discussions leading up to markup, and that's ok," she said. "We will, I believe, offer an amendment. We may not make it on our side, but there has to be an agreement that we debate this on the floor, and I believe we will win there."
The Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee approved a spectrum bill that would allocate the D Block to public safety in June, but the legislation has not come up for a vote in the full Senate.
Eshoo made the comments after a tour of Washington, D.C.'s 911 call center. She is a promoting a bill that she introduced with Rep. John Shimkus (R-Ill.) that would provide funding to local governments to help them implement next-generation 911 technology, such as accepting emergency text messages or videos.
She said she hopes to fold her next-generation 911 measure into the committee's spectrum legislation.
"Our systems really need to keep up with the technology," Eshoo said. "There is a need across the country, and of course local governments are really pressed and pressed hard given the economics of the nation right now."

Gio and Zeke Love Nana
We loved being in Nevada City for Christmas. We did so many fun things. I'm not sure what Nana is reading to Gio and Zeke in these pictures, but Gio says it is "Elf on the Shelf." The book came with a little elf that hides in a different secret spot every day to watch the children to make sure they are good. You get to name your elf. Gio named his "Loafie". Come to think of it he names all of his toys weird names. He named one of his stuffed animals "Uvabell" (Of a Bell). He named his new dog "Eyes." He named his Maleficent doll "Apalefacen." The funny thing is he is actually trying to be funny.

The Importance of Thee and Thou
The Following excellent article was written by Pastor E. L. Bynum | August 1995
A New Bible With No `Thou Shalt Nots'
The following story was taken from the pages of a newspaper. We quote it word for word, so our readers can see this shameful story.
Thou shall not find any `thou shall nots' in new Bible translation
The Contemporary English Version of the Bible-arriving in bookstores next month propelled by an $8 million advertising blitz-may be the most easy-to-read translation of the perennial bestseller ever published.
Other recent translations have already dumped the troublesome thees, thous and whithersoevers of the 17th century's King James Version. But millions of Americans still weren't sure just what such things as an ark and a manger were, American Bible Society translators found.

World Cafe Live and Live Nation present
Justin Hayward (of The Moody Blues)
World Cafe Live - Wilmington
500 N. Market St.
Wilmington, DE, 19801
Doors 6:30 PM / Show 8:00 PM
This event is all ages
Justin Hayward was born on October 14, 1946 in the upstairs bedroom of the house next door to his grandfather's in Dean Street, Swindon, Wiltshire, next to the giant Great Western Railway Works. From the age of 5 he enjoyed singing, and he inherited his paternal grandfather's collection of 78s when he was 6, which opened up the magical world of music to him as his grandpa had collected many hits of the 30s and 40s. He had a few piano lessons at 7, learned to play the ukulele at 9, and this progressed to a strong desire to own a guitar. With help from his parents and hire purchase, Justin had achieved this ambition by the age of 10.
In early 1965 Justin answered an advertisement for a guitar player in "The Melody Maker" and soon found himself one-third of The Wilde Three with Marty Wilde and his wife Joyce, appearing on stage at the London Palladium in April of that year as well as touring all over the UK and performing on a long tour of the Middle East. He recorded two singles with The Wilde Three - "Just As Long/Since You've Gone" and "I Cried/Well Who's That" - before branching out on his own and recording two self-penned solo singles in 1966 - "London Is Behind Me/Day Must Come" for Pye Records and "I Can't Face The World Without You/I'll Be Here Tomorrow" for Parlaphone (the Beatles original label). To this day, he credits Marty Wilde as having encouraged him to write his own material. Soon after the release of his solo singles, Justin wrote to Eric Burden of the Animals and sent him some of his compositions. Eric passed them on to Mike Pinder of The Moody Blues in the Summer of 1966, so beginning a famous and acclaimed 36-year career, which started with the recording of Justin's "Fly Me High" at the famous Decca Studios, engineered by Gus Dudgeon. Within a few weeks Justin had written many other songs for the band including "Nights in White Satin."
The next seven years, and seven legendary albums, are of course well documented.
1977 saw the release of Justin's first hit solo album, Songwriter, from which were taken three singles, "One Lonely Room/Songwriter (Part 2)," "Country Girl/Doin' Time" and "Stage Door/Lay It On Me."
In March 1997 Justin was honored with the ultimate accolade when he was the chosen subject for "This is Your Life," an overdue recognition for a lifetime's work. He has received four ASCAP awards, the BMI Million Plays award for "Story in Your Eyes," an Ivor Novello Statue, as well as numerous other songwriter awards around the world. His song "Nights in White Satin" features regularly in the all time lists of favorite songs, including being in the top ten Songs of the Millenium, voted for by the public, on BBC TV.

MORE than 80 per cent of truck drivers on the Bruce Highway are struggling to find adequate rest areas and at least a quarter have admitted to driving tired on the deadly road, according to a new report.
Some truck drivers are even calling for a zero alcohol tolerance for light vehicles and a ban on all trucks travelling between midnight and 5am.
Most are demanding more rest areas and the segregation of trucks and caravans, with suggestions recorded through the detailed study.
About 300 drivers were surveyed at a new rest stop 160km south of Mackay by local advocates, State Government and industry representatives over 72 hours.
Coordinated by the Road Accident Action Group and assisted by the Department of Transport and Main Roads, the report will be considered by the State Government.
It also reports that drivers as old as 77 are moving trucks along the Bruce Highway, with more than half of all operators working more than 60 hours a week.
National Road Freighters Association director Tony Hopkins said the Bruce Highway was sorely lacking in appropriate rest areas.
``They haven't got the rest areas and what they are putting in have not been suitable,'' he said.
``There's big problems there.''
RACQ executive manager of public policy Michael Roth said the Federal Government needed to increase the number of rest stops.
``Driver fatigue certainly is one of the top issues for safety on the Bruce Highway,'' he said.
``There are long stretches and it's an awful long highway. We encourage motorists to only drive two hours ntsDat a timente and then stop for 10 or 15 minutes.''
Danny Spencer, of Rockhampton, has been driving the Bruce Highway for 36 years is frustrated by the lack of rest areas.
``General motorists have got no understanding of trucks,'' the 51-year-old said.
``Potholes and road maintenance is a big thing and there's not enough parking areas for trucks. There's a lot to be done to make it better for everyone.''
Mr Spencer said the longest he had been stranded due to flooding was two weeks.
``The government, they fly from A to B,'' he said.
``They should get off their arse and drive and have a real look at how us Australians really do it.''
Darcy Hennessey has only lived in Gin Gin for 13 years, but in that time he's personally seen more than 30 fatal crashes, with caravans reduced to ``matchsticks''.
The 70-year-old retired boilermaker regularly travels the Bruce Highway and says he constantly witnesses trucks ``cutting off cars'', with some leading to crash sites he described simply as ``not pretty''.
Mr Hennessey is just one of countless Queenslanders forced to witness tragedy unfold on the highway before them.
The road has claimed more than 300 lives since 2006.
They often have little choice but to watch the carnage and remain silently frustrated.
``There's been caravans just strewn apart, there's been trucks gone,'' he said.
``The memories come back. There's probably 30 major crashes, maybe more, in that area through to Gladstone that have killed people.''
He described one particular scene as looking like ``matchsticks ... all over the place''.
Mr Hennessey said the Bruce Highway was put to shame by roads in southern states.
``The roads down there are 200 per cent better than this highway and that's even right out west,'' he said.
``I travelled (the Bruce Highway) every week, backward and forwards. The roads were never built for the big trucks that they put on it.''
He pointed to the neglected edges that run along some stretches of the highway as being in particular need of attention.
``They have never done the verges, there's big drop-overs with B-doubles and things like that,'' he said.
``They've got no room to get off it because they've got all these big wide loads and the come on very quickly across these little bridges and the big trucks are coming the other way with no time to stop.
``They're doing well over 120 or 130 clicks and you've got probably 80 tonnes sitting behind you and if you're in between them all... well, it's very scary.''
Geoff Eddy, 52, has been in town for just eight weeks and is in the process of buying a house, but has spent years using the Bruce Highway.
Mr Eddy says he has seen head-on crashes and ``accidents, accidents, accidents''.
``You see them every day,'' he said.
``The biggest problem with the Bruce Highway is there's not enough overtaking lanes and they're not long enough. You only get, at best, six or seven cars around.''
Mr Eddy believes fatigue also plays a significant role in a number of crashes along the portion of the highway between Mackay and Rockhampton.
``People try to do too much,'' he said.
On his third day promoting the Coalition's new Bruce Highway policy, Opposition Leader Tony Abbott has slammed Labor's original solution for Brisbane's cross river rail.
When asked whether the Coalition's lack of a cross river rail offer had helped make the additional $2.6 billion possible, Mr Abbottsaid: "My understanding is that the offer that the Labor Government made to the Queensland Government on this score was completely unacceptable.
"It wasn't a real offer because wasn't an offer that was made in a form that the Queensland Government could possibly accept."
Asked about polls reflecting Malcolm Turnbull's popularity, Mr Abbott said he felt "very encouraged" that the Coalition was a "broad church" with "room for big figures".
"I'm very pleased to have a strong team," he said.

July 30th, 2005, 10:11 PM #1Listing Top 10 Affiliates in Monthly Newsletter
Hello LinkShare Affiliates,
What do you think about a LinkShare merchant listing the top 10 affiliates in their program on their monthly newsletter. I have been doing this for a few months and use the greatest growth as a percentage rather than just the highest sales. This gives new affiliates a chance to shine. I have also been contacted via this forum about affiliates sites that were suspected parasites and have removed approximately a dozen after doing my own research.
Your opinion is welcome, positive or negative.
July 30th, 2005, 10:29 PM #2
General rule, NEVER post, here or on a newsletter an affiliate's url. Why? There are many site copiers. However, If you do get approval from your top affiliates (prerequisite for publishing URL) then go ahead.Continued Success,
The secret of success is constancy of purpose ~ Disraeli
July 30th, 2005, 10:55 PM #3
Agreed. Always ask. You're trying to reward affiliates with this, make sure they see it that way. Plenty do like it, but many don't want it.
Also, make sure you're not promoting public enemies #1-5 on your list. The big giant affiliates don't care so much anyway.
% growth is a good way to avoid this.

I agree too. If the affiliate agrees to be listed that's one thing, otherwise you are providing competitive information to the affiliate's competitors without the affiliate's consent.
Unless the affiliate agrees I wouldn't list any of the affiliate's information at all. Even if an AM doesn't list an affiliate's url and just lists the affiliate's company name, most of the time it's pretty easy to figure out the affiliate's url from that.
I like it when AM's show the top 10 affiliate earnings for the month like this:
#1 $10,800
#2 $ 7,895
#3 $6,509
and so forth.
That way I can see what others are making. Most of the time it's encouraging just seeing how much others are making with a program. Of course, if the numbers are all really small that isn't very encouraging.
July 30th, 2005, 11:41 PM #5
It's definitely a no no to reveal your top affiliates without their permission.
It can be motivating to see the NUMBERS. That way you know what's possible. For instance, the top ten total earnings, the top conversion ratio (with some minimum number of orders), the average conversion ratio of all affiliates who had sales, the number of affiliates earning checks, etc. Whatever makes sense for your program.
July 31st, 2005, 01:51 AM #6
I would not be able to fathom a logical reason to let competitors know who is outdoing them, though I do agree it is good to see NUMBERS.
July 31st, 2005, 01:58 AM #7
You could just list how much $ the top ten made through your program, without giving URLs or site information but that wouldn't be in any way an accolade for your top ten affils. Ho about giving them a bonus instead? ;-)
July 31st, 2005, 02:03 AM #8Originally Posted by Kip
When I see these figures, I mostly just get pissed off and start moaning to the AM about MY lack of numbers and always question how others are making this much when I'm sending thousands of visitors without ANY sales. Duh ... must be those pesky blood suckers. ;-) Then I find out what the CTS ratio is for average affils in the program. Pisses me off even more then. LOL - But I do agree that listing the top ten check amounts is encouraging IF someone's actually making sales through the merchant's program. Also, it alerts other affils to what is possible, then, if you're sending thousands of clicks but seeing no sales, you can figure "something's" very wrong.
August 1st, 2005, 12:19 AM #9
Thanks All: I am going to let this run a few more days then make a composite of the comments to use on my next monthly newsletter.

the answer is NO. if you insist, i'll dump your site, period.
August 1st, 2005, 08:15 AM #11
Also, "percent growth" is meaningless as a stand-alone statistic. An 1831% growth could mean someone that went from a single $19.99 sale in one month to a single $385.99 sale the following month.

dollar amounts would be best.
unless they're low and you don't want people to see them.
August 1st, 2005, 04:57 PM #14Originally Posted by MichaelColey
But it's not a bad stat if you're looking to incent and reward affiliates for picking up the pace and give everyone a shot at it. (Start with a minimum of reasonable $ amount as the base point to avoid Michael's crazy numbers).
By the way, for those of us who shy away from public praise, being mentioned in a newsletter isn't always bad. Sometimes, newsletters end up on the merchant's website and you get you a nice link.

ONCE I allowed my url to be published on this forum. The following week ALL of my sales and traffic dropped 80% and they did not recover for over 6 months. There are link farms, copy cats (dynamically driven) and yes even terrorists making money by using fraud on the web. And if you dont believe there is fraud on the web ask Bank of America. We do not need to put ourselves at risk for the sake of kudos. Once a link farm gets your url, google can and does ban your site and potentially destroy your sales or even your website as well. As I am writing this email there are morons monitoring this and many other forums.
Publishing numbers might be OK to impress newbies--but they should know it is also years of work that gets the results!

>>what good is one inbound link if you're already out of business?
If you're successful, I don't need a merchant to tell me what your site is. A newsletter is not a kiss of death.
One good inbound link from a merchant-type site can do a lot of good. Probably the some of best links that some affiliates are able to get for free as far as relevance, link pop, etc.
That's not to say there's no decision to be made, but it's a benefit that may tip the scales in favor of the NL mention.
August 2nd, 2005, 09:50 AM #19
Scott, you can do very well and stay under the radar of other affiliates. There's a huge difference between having your site known inside of your niche (without any specifics on profit) and having hundreds of potential competitors learn that you're making $10,000 per month from a single merchant. In the first case, you're just one of many competitors. In the later case, you're a success that scores of people will try to copy.
A single link won't make a big impact. Most good sites have thousands of links.

One or two good links, especially early on, can do a lot of good.
Maybe you've forgotten how that is. Lucky you

Nobody is going to care about an average affiliate who has 10 inbound links and is making $25/month. This discussion has never been about average affiliates.
August 2nd, 2005, 10:55 AM #22Originally Posted by MichaelColey
Any "good site" that thinks they have all the links they ever need won't be good for long. There's always room for one more. And if you are somehow flying under the radar from your competition and cannot afford some recognition, hopefully the merchant will ask before posting your url.
yes, the subject of this thread is "top ten affiliates in newsletters", and we established in record time that it's bad to name them. Should we close the thread at that? Some different approaches to rewards and recognition are interesting. Here's what I get out of this thread...
- Posting your affiliates sites (top ten or not) in an email without asking is pretty much always a bad idea.
- Posting your list of top-ten affiliates is just bad for lots of reasons.
- Posting the top earnings anonymously can be very motivational, unless it's embarrassingly low.
- Recognition of affiliates in a newsletter is not always a bad idea. Some affiliates like it, even some top ten affiliates who have nothing to hide nor are trying to fly under the radar. If you have a contest that picks some stat (like % increase), that levels the playing field and doesn't risk putting a big spotlight/target in the top ten, that can work well.
- Be careful about alienating affiliates with recognizing the perceived "bad guys". A few years ago, these top-affiliate emails were a who's-who in adware. AMs have smartened up to that it seems.
BTW, Linkshare has given us a case study in this publicly recognizing affiliates. They have no shortage of affiliates who, for a $50 prize, will be listed on Linkshare and even provide a nice quote. They have also stepped in it many times when it comes to giving prizes to "top" affiliates.
Moral of the story: Recognition can be motivational, and isn't always bad, but think before you blast out the "great news".

let's boil this thing down to only one word: copycatters
and even if linkshare gives me a $10,000 prize, i will turn it down.
tell me, would anybody be interested in posting my other sites that don't earn a single cent?
if i see a merchant posting urls, i can just imagine him saying: "hey everyone! this guy's successful. go copy his site, quick!"

The affiliate manager should have some way to let the other affiliates what works.
Maybe posting urls is not acceptable (I don't know, I am not a good affiliate according the definition in this thread).
I fnd it hard to believe that somebody is going to just copy Michael Coley's site and put him out of business. It looks like a lot of ongoing work goes into that site (not to mention all the years worth of inbound links and publicity).

What it comes down to is don't put affiliate sites in your newsletter unless you have their permission first, simple.
Personally it's not so much someone will copy my site but will copy the successful way i've learned to promote them. I could go and find thousands of sites with Toolking links but i have no idea who's making money and what methods work. Unless you show me in your newsletter. I'll give an example. There is one CJ merchant that has a lifelong EPC around $2. I've seen posts before of people having problems with them. I have a steady EPC of almost $30 with them. Maybe I found a working way to promote them or a particular section of their site that works. Maybe i'm the only one that has a page with nice rankings and not too much competition, an angle that works. I don't want that AM telling everybody else about it.

Tennessee is once again a top ten ranked team after fighting its way back up to its initial #9 preseason ranking.
If you don't count preseason polls, though, this is the first time the Vols have been ranked in the top ten during the regular season in ten years. To put that into perspective, the last time the Vols hit the top ten was in October 2006 - Phillip Fulmer was still the head coach, Peyton Manning had yet to win a Super Bowl, and the first iPhone hadn't even become a rumor at that point.
The Vols have gone 5-0 and moved up two spots from last week's #11 ranking to #9 in both the AP Top 25 and Amway Coaches polls. The team stunned Georgia in Athens Saturday, winning 34-31 on a Hail Mary pass that was caught in the final seconds of the game.
PHOTOS: Georgia vs. Tennessee
Georgia needed to beat the Vols in order to stay ranked. The Dawgs dropped out of both polls, and a slew of newcomers entered the AP Top 25 - including Tennessee's Battle at Bristol opponent, Virginia Tech, at #25.
The Vols have a tough couple of weeks ahead. Next Saturday, Tennessee will take on #8 Texas A&M at College Station. ESPN College GameDay will be there to cover the Vols for the third time this season, and kickoff will be at 3:30 p.m.
The following week, Tennessee gets its chance to take down #1 Alabama at Neyland.

When Sunil Nagaraj built his first software—an applicant tracking system—as a computer science student at the University of North Carolina, his only option, it seemed, was to sell it to the university upon graduation.
He knew of no resources for engineers and entrepreneurs back then. "I could have productized it if there was an HQ Raleigh, or Citrix Accelerator or Startup Factory," says the now vice president at Bessemer Venture Partners in Silicon Valley.
Nagaraj admits he hardly recognizes his hometown from when he graduated in 2004 and moved to Boston to work in management consulting—eventually to attend Harvard Business School. "There's enough people and noise that I think entrepreneurs know where to go. They know a path," he says.
In a talk before an audience of hundreds at yesterday's CED Tech Venture Conference, Nagaraj acknowledged the infrastructure and capital that has built up in the Triangle. He shared why he's bullish on mobile and Internet of Things startups, and explained the untapped potential in those burgeoning industries (see my wrap-up below). His two pieces of advice specific to entrepreneurs in the Triangle were to talk more freely about failure and to be generous.
But Nagaraj and I sat down after his presentation to talk in depth about the 1,000 or so deals he considers each year at Bessemer, the firm he joined after his venture-backed social dating startup, Triangulate, shut down in 2011. (Its investments include Skype, Yelp, Pinterest, Box and LinkedIn.)
We started with the biggest mistake entrepreneurs tend to make at the early stage—they don't figure out if people actually want the product they're building, Nagaraj says.
He's a fan of Kickstarter and Indiegogo for the customer validation. In fact, he expects any IoT or hardware startup to go this route before seeking investment. For software startups, Nagaraj recommends a fake landing page for people to sign up for a waiting list. "Any sense of customer demand is valuable to me as a VC," he says.
Entrepreneurs also fail to address defensibility. Nagaraj wants to know why they are better suited to build the business than anyone else. Is it an amazing team that executes so rapidly competition can't keep up? Or, perhaps there's a proprietary partnership that keeps competitors out. Or, deep intellectual property?
"It's not easy, but competitors will emerge and pricing pressure and customer churn makes the business fall apart," he says.
Nagaraj has yet to make an investment in the Triangle, though he'd like to. Each of Bessemer's 30 or so VCs make one or two seed stage to series D investments a year. Nagaraj more frequently invests in early-stage companies.
A key criteria for Bessemer is the size of addressable market. And because most Triangle startups aren't targeting consumers—a major focus of his investments—market sizes can be too small. But the Triangle may not be as positioned to have a huge consumer app company, he says. The number of startups tied to universities and intellectual property may be disproportionately high.
Plus, consumer startups are incredibly difficult.
"The issue with consumer is a lot of folks don't monetize and so you either cross your fingers that you get acquired like Instagram without turning on revenue or you believe you are building a mass of users, then you turn on revenue," Nagaraj says. "But for a lot of consumer ideas, it can seem like a stretch that they can ever turn on revenue." His example—photo sharing apps.
Nagaraj is also focused on security startups—just yesterday, he announced an investment in Auth0, which builds software for developers to make apps more secure.
And, lucky for us, B2B is sometimes a target. His favorites from the two-day conference were InMotionNow and nCino, two companies offering a cloud-based solution to real problems of a specific customer base and with customers to prove its working, something all too rare in Silicon Valley, he says.
He's also a fan of Windsor Circle's Matt Williamson: "I continue to be impressed by how much hustle that guy has."
And if Citrix Sharefile's Jess Lipson ever starts another company, Nagaraj will be watching.
"Jess is really quite a role model. I'm impressed with his commitment to give back to the community that supported him and not in a hands-off way. With time, energy and money all at the same time."
Nagaraj's tips for mobile and IoT startups:
- Reimagine workflow for mobile. Pick an industry skipped by desktop computing and even software-as-a-service. Study a day in the life of a worker and find solutions to make that person's activities more efficient on mobile. Think nurses, cab drivers, plumbers.
- Rethink, rather than force-fit, the desktop experience for mobile. Example: Circa, which redesigns news consumption for mobile.
- Imagine anything around you with a sensor in it. Make old hardware smart. Consider what data could be collected from that item and how it might be useful to a person or business.
- Consider hardware beyond wearable devices like the Fitbit, like iBeacons that track the activity of a fleet of trucks or an elderly person's pill box. Examples from his portfolio: Estimote, which puts iBeacons in retail stores to deliver coupons to a customer's mobile phone when she enters; and Tile, a Bluetooth tracking device to put on your keys or other items that could get lost.
- Differentiate in the software, not the hardware. That's how to be most interesting to investors.

Echosmith hosts a free concert at Hard Rock Cafe New York

Echosmith and the world-famous Hard Rock brand are thinking pink in support of the 16th Annual PINKTOBERTM campaign. Starting now through the month of October, guests can support breast cancer research to help eradicate a disease that affects millions by visiting Hard Rock properties around the world and purchasing pink merchandise, pink drinks and pink hotel amenities.

"With the support of artist ambassadors like Echosmith and all of our fans around the globe for Hard Rock's annual PINKTOBER program, we can help raise more funds each year and assist our charity partners by funding critical breast cancer research," said John Galloway, Sr. Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer at Hard Rock International. "Through the global campaign, which unites Hard Rock Cafes, Hotels and Casinos, we are able to spread the message of strength, hope, awareness and support, which impacts the lives of millions of men and women worldwide."

Each Friday through the week of the 2017 Academy Award nominations in January, Take 2 is handicapping the Oscar rush with The Award Chase.
2016 has been a bummer year in celebrity deaths. From David Bowie in January and Prince in April, many talented artists have passed away this year. While talent in a role or greatness in a project rule the day, there's always a sentimental vote for those in their final role. In the Academy Awards' history, 61 people have been nominated for posthumous Oscars in competitive categories, with 16 winning. Most notable winners include actor Heath Ledger for his supporting role as the Joker in "The Dark Knight," cinematographer Conrad Hall for his work in "Road to Perdition" and Walt Disney for a Winnie the Pooh short in 1968.
This season, the names of two departed stars have been floating around the circuit. Alan Rickman, who died Jan. 14 at the age of 69, appeared along with Helen Mirren and Aaron Paul in the war thriller, "Eye in the Sky" last spring. Rickman plays British Lt. Gen. Frank Benson, who is involved in a coordinated drone attack targeting terrorists in Kenya. It's the thespian's final onscreen role. According to Goldderby, an awards prediction website, Rickman's chances of nabbing a nomination are 100 to 1.
Soul singer Sharon Jones died Nov. 18 at age 60. She is the subject of Barbara Kopple's documentary "Miss Sharon Jones!" The film follows the songstress as she battled pancreatic cancer, from losing her hair to returning to the stage. The documentary, released before Jones' death in July, also features an original song by Jones, "I'm Still Here." Hollywood Reporter's Scott Feinberg predicts the documentary will make the projected shortlist in its category ahead of the five nominees to be revealed next month, and the song is a major threat in the original song category.
Other observations
- Jimmy Fallon releases his first promo as host of the 2017 Golden Globes.
- "Moonlight" is the big winner at the Gotham Independent Film Awards, and "La La Land" leads in nominations for the Critics' Choice Awards.

Why is it that people let limitations in internally developed tools prevent progress? Yes, that's more of a rhetorical question than anything else. But there is a part of me that would love the definitive answer to this question. When a team goes through a reengineering processes they often let the existence and limitations in internal tools drive the newly defined process – why is that? After all it's just software – shouldn't it change to support the business needs? Have you really developed the most optimized process if you make compromises due to limitations in the software tools that supposedly support the process?
Here in SQL we're revamping our development process to make it more Agile like. We have come up with the concept (ok, not very original but work with me) of improvement teams. These teams are responsible for modifying the product in support of a particular scenario – scenarios may have multiple improvement teams building functionality. The basic gist of the improvement is they are responsible for add a particular set of capabilities to the product and once the improvement is complete the code can be checked-in and the improvement team can go on to something else. An improvement is defined as:
An improvement is a unit of work which is:
Complete and shippable
Does no harm to the product
Adds value to the product
Sounds pretty cool and very Agile and Scrum like; when the improvement is complete it is completely complete. It's ready to go and the team can move on to the next improvement. We can ship the product once we believe we have enough improvements complete. Well, most things sound great in theory but when put in practice it all starts to break down.
When I read the above definition I was certain that books-online (BOL) content had to fall within the definition of "complete and shippable". Well guess what, the tool the BOL authoring team use doesn't seem to support this process. Don't ask me what it means to not support the process because I don't know. I mean, we can author BOL content - we did it for Yukon, so what's the problem. What I do know is the product is not complete and shippable without BOL content. So how can an improvement be complete and shippable without BOL content? The answer I get is each improvement will need an exception for delivering the appropriate BOL content at a later date. A later date! Doesn't that mean we've changed the definition of an improvement? Shouldn't we update it to say something like:
An improvement is a unit of work which is:
Complete and shippable - except for those things the team wants to complete later
Does no harm to the product
Adds value to the product – but not all of the expected value
It's a slippery slope. Today it's BOL and tomorrow it'll be something else like passing all automated test cases – "gee, it passed 85%, isn't that good enough to check it in. We don't think it'll do any harm…" Maybe I'm just a purist, or maybe idealist is a better word, when it comes to things like this. Either we stick to the definition or we change the definition. But trying to live in a world of exceptions leaves the door open just enough for more and more exceptions to walk on through. And what really chaps my hide is people believe that delivering BOL content with the improvement is the right thing but they claim the internal tools used to author BOL content don't support this. "Don't support this", how can that be? Don't we own the tools? Can't we create an interim manual process to handle this – such as the improvement team must have demonstrable proof that BOL content is complete prior to gaining sign-off to check-in.
If we make it painful for the teams to get check-in approvals they'll go and fix the BOL tooling issue. If we give them exceptions for each and every little problem the problems will never get fixed and over time we'll end up with a Swiss-cheese, exception driven process; a process that will have to be re-engineered in a year or so.


text: I'm a newbie when it comes to Glocks. Shot a buddies 21 after it had some trigger work and liked it. I already have a 1911 .45. I was looking at a P226 Sig Sauer mainly because .357 sig to 40 cal is just a simple barrel swap. Does this hold true on Glocks? Can you buy a G31 and simply install a G22 barrel? If not is there a model/setup that requires nothing more than just swapping barrels?


text: I own a couple SP Systems backpacks. I recently went to retrieve one from my trailer rack, and the wand was missing. I suppose I let it get loose, and it flew out somewhere on the road. I FINALLY found an online retailer that sold the replacement wands, and I ordered a brass wand to replace it (another question just came to mind). It arrived, today....but, the tip/nozzle part that's adjustable isn't part of the replacement. So, I'm still out of commission (with this sprayer). 1. I need a replacement for this to get it back in action. Any recommendations on a part/retailer? 2. Are there BP sprayer tips that are better than others? I'm assuming it depends on the task at hand. I use this sprayer ONLY for gly.. But, I have a coupel more that'll see some selective postM apps.. RE: the brass wand.... Why is (if, indeed it is) brass a better choice for this (BP Sprayer) application? Easier to clean/keep clean? No idea, really. Thanks.

|Veterans Memorial Park
Nicholas County Veterans' Memorial Park began as a large, local farm. In the early 1940s, it was donated to the county with the stipulation that it be used to honor our World War II Veterans and for recreation for our children.
Today, it is used in a variety of ways for our community. The Nicholas County Fair is held annually the second week of July. 2009 marks the 85th year of the fair. The historic Red Barn is original to the park and grounds the small amphitheatre with a large shelter for picnicking. The Nicholas County 4-H holds its annual week long camp at NCVMP in June and has serviced approximately 64 years of children and young adults.
The park houses 2 baseball fields, a girl's softball field, and a t-ball field which entertains hundreds of children and parents in the typical spring baseball season. With the wonderful central location of Summersville, the park has been a great draw for annual state baseball and softball tournaments.
We invite you to bring the whole church, business office, or organization to Nicholas County and stay at our park. It is economical and close to everything you wish to experience. Whether you are a corporation, wedding, special event, family reunion, Christian organization or just want to get away for the weekend with the kids, we can assist your every movement. As a county park we wish to provide a great way for you to join us in making a memorable experience.Our park offers the following rental areas: Dining hall with full commercial kitchen, Horse arena, Pool, Fire pit with bleachers, Entertainment stage, Picnic arena, Golf course, Tennis courts, Basketball court, Softball, Baseball fields, Lodging cabins, Soccer fields, Theatre, Kitchen, Banquet Room.

Toyota of Puyallup
Review for Toyota of Puyallup
Phil S. on 11/14/2012
Phil said he had a scheduled appointment at this business but was not given a specific time when the vehicle would be ready. He had his vehicle in to have a nail removed from the tire. The service visit took longer than it should have. He waited for his vehicle for an hour and a half. He suggested this business inform their customers if they are running late so they are aware of what is going on.

Easy come, easy go! A crucial element in one of the most memorable rock 'n' roll movie moments ever, "Bohemian Rhapsody" was almost cut from 1992's Wayne's World.
The classic comedy's star, Mike Myers, recently spoke about his role in the flick, and touched on the inclusion of Queen's trademark song.
"An example of something I fought very, very hard for, and it was my first movie — it was 'Bohemian Rhapsody' in Wayne's World," Myers, 51, told Marc Maron in his WTF podcast. "They wanted Guns N' Roses. Guns N' Roses were very, very popular, they were a fantastic band…"
At the time of shooting, the members of Queen had sold their most successful records decades before, while Guns N' Roses had just entered rock superstardom with the release of 1987's Appetite for Destruction and 1988's G N' R Lies.
"Queen, at that point — not by me and not by hardcore fans — but the public had sort of forgotten about them," Myers continued. "Freddie [Mercury] had gotten sick, the last time we had seen them was on Live Aid and then there were a few albums after where they were sort of straying away from their arena rock roots. But I always loved 'Bohemian Rhapsody.' I thought it was a masterpiece. So I fought really, really hard for it. And at one point I said, 'Well, I'm out. I don't want to make this movie if it's not 'Bohemian Rhapsody.'"
Thankfully for Myers fans everywhere, director Penelope Spheeris relented, and "Bohemian Rhapsody" made it in, cementing movie history. "Bohemian Rhapsody" became one of the defining moments in Wayne's World, providing a quintessential scene in which Wayne (Myers), Garth (Dana Carvey), and their pals belt out the high-pitched lyrics to the Queen track, while cruising in a car.

The Weekly Review of Independent Opinions
The opinions of independent investment advisors with free newsletters and web site market forecasts dropped into neutral at the end of the first week of January. Since then they have recovered and the proportion of neutral opinions has reduced while the proportions of bulls and bears have increased correspondingly. The latest figures for the FIFTI¹ (Free Information From The Internet) Index show 53% bulls in the short and medium term with 23% bears in the short term and 32% in the medium term. Long term the bears outnumber bulls 55% to 36%. None of these are extreme figures and they do not indicate excessive sentiment one way or another.
It must have been the strength of the rally in the first week of 2006 that shocked the opinions of independent investment advisors that make up the FIFTI Index of www.investorsinternet.com into neutral. Many were expecting the stock market to decline at the start of January, much like the start of 2005. Instead, in a week, the market eclipsed the gains of last year - the S&P 500 gained 37 points in the first week of 2006 compared to 36 points in the whole of 2005.
The immediate question that the experts are battling with is whether the rally will last. The break through resistance, at around 10,900 for the Dow and 1,275 for the SPX with targets around 11,200 - 11,300 for the Dow and the low 1,300's for the SPX, is the reason that many say the rally has more room to run in the short-term. After such a rapid rise even the bulls expect a consolidation or mild correction before the targets are reached. The bears regard the rally as a short term over-reaction to the change in the Fed's statement about interest rates, but they concede that the momentum behind the rally has been strong.
The reason that there are more bears in the medium term than the short term is because they believe the technicals and the economic signs do not point to significant upside for the stock market. Some talk about cycle tops in mid-January to early-February, others to a four-year cycle low in October.
The major arguments of the bears, however, relate to the months ahead. By then consumers will have slowed their spending, the housing market will be down, high oil prices will be showing their effect, interest rates will be higher, the yield curve will be inverted, foreign investment will be diversifying away from the dollar and geopolitical risks are unlikely to lessen. These arguments have changed little over the last year but their credibility is supported by well respected names such as Bill Gross at www.pimco.com, Bob Doll at www.ml.com, and George Soros as reported at www.bondsonline.com. Opinions of the bears differ only in the severity of the economic slowdown.
Currently, technical signals are mixed and the panic attack at the Tokyo stock market is of concern. It remains to be seen whether nearby support levels will limit the current correction. If not, a significant top may be in and the stock market could be in for a medium term decline.

I wrote it because I saw a thread asking about ASCII values not appearing properly or something like that, so I thought people might find it useful to be able to convert between the two
Also, I've self-taught myself everything I know about programming, so I kinda wrote it as an exercise for my myself.
I was thinking of creating a percentage calculator soon, we would be a useful tool for myself

ASCII code problem
Hi, I have a problem when I try to write a greek symbol using ASCII code. Whenever I type ALT+0248 (which on an XP 32 bit would give me a "PHI" symbol), on my Windows 7 pro 64bit all I get is an empty square :sarc: ... I tryed changing the language (Romanian to English(US) and vice-versa) and...
Cant get Windows to submit ASCII to an old printer.
I think this may be my first or second question on the forum so I wasn't sure whether to put it here or in Drivers.

Got a great deal on Zoysia, $120 for 2 pallets. It isn't perfect but at least the kids will have a nice grassy play area. Now I need to figure out what to do with my useless back yard. Maybe some tiered beds.

Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) is an autosomal recessive condition characterized by moderate to severe sensitivity to ultraviolet (UV) light. Patients develop multiple skin lesions on UV-exposed skin, and skin cancers often develop as a result. XP is caused by deficient repair of DNA damage from UV exposure. Many genes are known to be involved in repair of UV-induced DNA damage, and several of these genes are implicated in XP.

The Right Way To Lose Fat Fast
So you're a size 3 or 4, but you're eager to become a size zero. It is possible. Why not? Just like the common pattern for losing fat, getting to be skinny also needs a proper diet, combined with various exercises, in an organized fashion for a specified period of time. Also, a detoxification operation is significant, to clear the body of all unneeded toxins, that might hinder the operation of fat reduction. While it is significant for... [Read More...]

San Diego State coach Steve Fisher was delivering his postgame talk in the locker room when Jamaal Franklin stood up.
"I thought he was going to walk out of here," Fisher said.
Franklin was merely walking over to console teammate Tim Shelton. Then Chase Tapley did the same thing.
"To tell Tim that they cared about him," Fisher said. "They said all the right things from the heart. And I am so proud of what Tim was able to give of himself this season."
Shelton started in Friday's 79-65 loss against North Carolina in the NCAA Tournament, but he played only 13 minutes – just six in the second half – and finished with zero points, two rebounds and one assist.
"I didn't play the way I should have," a tearful Shelton said. "It started with me. I didn't get them going. I put that one on me."
But, really, what could he have done?
Shelton's knees have bothered him his entire career, and somehow he coaxed 24 minutes per game out of them as a senior and was a key reason the Aztecs managed to win 26 games with nine scholarship players. But a long season began to wear on him in recent weeks, and he failed to play more than 20 minutes in any of the last five games after going 20-plus in 13 of the previous 14.
Three games in three days at the Mountain West conference tournament last week didn't help, either.
"They had been hurting pretty good for the past three weeks," said Shelton, who has twice has microfracture surgery on the same knee. "After our conference tournament, Sunday and Monday I felt like I had been hit by a car. I tried to recover from that. Tom (Abdenour, SDSU's athletic trainer) did a great job getting me to where I could play today. My motor wasn't where it needed to be. Still, no excuses. This is the last game of my career."
"Tim's a soldier, a soldier," Tapley said. "That's what Tim has done his whole career. I knew he was hurting, but everything was about the team. For him to keep sacrificing his body just shows how big his heart is."
Carrier game confirmed
The college game on the deck of the USS Midway Museum is a go for Friday, Nov. 9, at 4 p.m., although teams have yet to be announced. On Thursday, UT San Diego reported that Georgetown has been contacted about playing SDSU.
Local group Syndicus Entertainment will partner with the San Diego Sports Commission to organize the "Battle on the Midway" to kick off a weekend of events, including a Sunday concert to benefit Strikeouts for Troops, a charitable foundation founded by local baseball star Barry Zito.
Georgetown athletic director Lee Reed said Thursday that his school had been approached but "it's still way too early" to confirm the Hoyas' participation. Had the Aztecs defeated North Carolina State on Friday, they would have played Georgetown here Sunday.
More from the stat sheet:
--SDSU's bench contributed only two points in the second half.
--North Carolina State had a 38-29 edge on the boards.
--After going 0 of 8 in his last outing, James Rahon made his first three shots and finished with 10 points.
-- Only one SDSU player shot better than 50 percent: DeShawn Stephens was 2 of 2.
--The Aztecs attempted 23 three-pointers, their most in 18 games.
The team returned to the hotel, packed and flew its charter plane home with the band and cheerleaders … The Mountain West is 1-3 in the NCAA Tournament, and it might have been 0-4 had Long Beach State's Larry Anderson not been injured. As it was, New Mexico beat the 12th-seeded 49ers 75-68 Thursday in what was a one-possession game late … SDSU is now 2-8 all-time in the NCAA Tournament and 1-7 in opening games.

Happy 4th!
Yes, I was watching the sky when a girl crossed the road with a big bunch of colorful balloons. She walked right across and then as she started to sell, I got this shot.
You know what this one tells me?
Hope and happiness.
As Happiness and Food turns 4 today, I am happy about the time gone by and hopeful of the journey that's ahead of me. I believe that if you can't find what you love, love will find you. One way or the other, it's a win-win.
This week, hope is what I want to pass on to you.
Whatever is the situation, think of the worst that could happen and then you will be able to deal with it. Staying hopeful is important because dark clouds don't remain for long. If you stay positive, you will find colors on a dull day, faith and hope on those monotonous walks of life and love where you expect it the least.
So, get rid of the negative thoughts and remember that this too shall pass.
Tagging to Skywatch Friday along with a learning from my week.

Change is part of the human condition. As seniors, most of us have experienced a variety of transformations: loss, relocation, dislocation and adjustment. During these stressful times, we are usually surrounded by family and friends and supported by our community. We get through, survive and move on. We emerge stronger, with gratitude to those who have helped us. But what happens if those supports are not in place? When the only resources available are within ourselves?
Recently, I found myself in Victoria, several provinces and many thousands of kilometres away from the familiar. As a senior with minimal finances, I needed to make a new life for myself. Retired and dealing with some health issues, I was without the contacts one makes through work. Where to begin? How to replace some of the elements of the life I left behind, and to combat the inevitable loneliness? Sitting in my apartment waiting for people was not an option.
I made a few mental lists: What was I interested in? What was I good at? How could I apply these things to make my life meaningful and perhaps help others? I began with the church. A staunch Anglican, I had been very active in my small home parish. Without a car, it was important to find a church I could get to easily. The only one within easy walking distance turned out to be the Cathedral. I checked it out - a massive gothic-style building, seating for 800+ people, four services per Sunday. Wow! Could I find a place in such a huge setting? Selecting a contemporary service, I began to attend regularly. It was summertime, and I blended in with the many visitors in this tourist town. People were friendly, but not effusive, and it took a while to be noticed. But as time passed, appeals were made for volunteers to assist with one activity or another. I responded, and was soon helping with some refreshments, since being handy in the kitchen was one of my strengths.
Another area of expertise was competency with computers and, before long, I found myself producing documents on my laptop. This led to a committee, phone and e-mail lists and meeting with small groups. I joined a church study group, and got to know like-minded individuals. My calendar was filling up!
Being a senior, I also connected with a couple of seniors' centres and was soon in a women's support group at one, and working as a volunteer receptionist (being a "people person" was on my "good at" list) at another. Folks began to know my name, and to care whether I was there or not.
Classical music is one of my passions, so I subscribed to the Symphony, which took a large chunk of my budget. In the position of having more time than money, I also joined the Volunteer Guild and began to assist with various fundraising activities - and meeting other music lovers in the process.
High on the list of what I really missed was having dogs, which had always been a big part of my former life. Living in a pet-free building, and these days not being in a position to pay for vet bills and the like, I had to find other ways to get my dog "fix." Discovering I was not far from a leash-free park, I started to hang out with other people's pets there, and at the many sidewalk cafés for which Victoria is famous. Not quite as good as having woman's best friend around at all times, but close!
Establishing an identity and creating a new network in a strange place is neither quick nor easy. It requires patience and perseverance, and the obstacles may seem insurmountable, but it can be done. And this once lost and lonely senior now has new friends, interesting pastimes, improved self-esteem and a satisfying sense of belonging.

Tue., May 15, 9 p.m. 2012 21+
The space cadets from New York's White Hills are all about propulsion—they won't shy away from a meandering psychedelic passage or three, either. Over the past few years White Hills have left in their wake a purple haze of CDRs, 7-inches, EPs, and a couple of long-players that are as much druggy fun as staring at a black-light poster while chewing on a bag of mushrooms. (Or so I've heard.) The band's latest, Frying on This Rock (on the otherworldly Thrill Jockey label), captures the band live as the psychedelic squalor gets a bit of a makeover—more controlled chaos, less infinite space jams. White Hills occasionally tread into '60s psych parody with some Velvet-y spoken-word breakdowns. But by then you're already on board. MARK LORE

SAS OP BULBASKET - DAS REICH AND ORADOUR Trailer (2012)
20 April 2012 History, Factual, War 60 mins
In 1944 prior to D Day the allied planners realised it was vital to isolate the Normandy Battlefield from reinforcements. In particular it was essential to delay or stop the movement of 2 SS Pz Div (Das Reich) from the south of France. The initial plan called for the French Resistance to interdict the French Railway system to stop their movements. Doubts over the effectiveness of the resistance led to the deployment of 1st SAS to do the task. This programme covers both the deployment of a troop of B Sqn into the Poitiers, in what was known as OP BULBASKET, to delay the Das Reich and the movements and actions of the Das Reich as they move through the Dordogne and Vienne Regions culminating in the massacre at Oradour. Part 2 of this programme will cover the SAS actions in delaying the Das Reich.
Watch the official SAS OP BULBASKET - DAS REICH AND ORADOUR 2012 trailer in HD below or find more SAS OP BULBASKET - DAS REICH AND ORADOUR videos on Vidimovie.
