hELLO TREAD thanks for the help !
Hello from the snowbound English countryside. I have a TF103C, 2 1/2 years old, I use it mainly in the production of backing tracks for local musicians. Also have a Nexus 7 bought in a Walmart in Florida for finding good local eateries. The TF103C is now rather sick so I'll be looking for some help with it.
Good morning...My name is Jim...I'm near pittsburgh, PA, USA.... Nice to be here.
Hi I'm new and have some issues with my Transformer T100TA-B2 and am hoping to get some help!
Hello, I bought a Transformer from one of my kids a couple of years ago. It has changed hands in the family a couple of times since then, and somewhere along the line the charging cord/adapter was lost. Of course the tablet is long dead power-wise so I've been trying to figure out what model it is (no box, no boot up) using only the serial number on the tablet. ASUS customer service chat doesn't connect, and their 1-888 number also appears to be not functioning. But I found y'all, and one of the posts for identification included an ASUS link for email contact - when I filled in the serial number, it generated the model without even having to complete the email, so now I know we have a Transformer Pad Infinity TF700T and I've ordered the correct wall charger from Amazon, should be here Sunday :} Not sure what I'll find when/if my Transformer powers up, but I know if I have issues I can come back here - thank you!
Currently in Spain but spend the summer in London.
I have a T303UA and was happy with it till just recently, when the fan started making funny noises. Now it doesn't seem to work at all and the outer case gets almost too hot to touch.
Happened upon this website whilst searching for a solution.
The fan now makes a pathetic noise every 5 seconds as if it wants to start but can't quite do it.
Had Macs for some 20 years but decided to try a non Mac mainly on cost. Beginning to think I've made a mistake.
PS. Hello
The fan may need replacement.
Welcome to the forum Mariner. You don't say how old your device is, or whether it's still under warranty. I believe Tor is right, it probably has a defective fan, and needs replacing. I certainly wouldn't run it hot, it will destroy the battery!

It's a sign of the times.
Not only is there a need to heighten security at schools with guards, cameras and visitor background checks. Now, some parents are arming their children with bulletproof backpacks.
News outlets are reporting an increase in the purchase of so-called "tactical backpacks" before the 2019-2020 school year.
"It's a sad sign of the fear that exists,'' said Dr. Joseph L. Ricca, superintendent at White Plains Central School District.
"There is no such thing as a bulletproof backpack,'' Ricca said. "Bullet-resistant, sure. I understand it gives (parents) a sense of security. But I'm concerned they think their children will somehow be impervious to gunfire."
Indeed, when a sheriff's department recently tested Guard Dog Security's $174 backpack's ability to withstand gunshots, they found it was able to stop bullets from several handguns and pistols as advertised. But a rifle bullet went clean through it. Guard Dog backpacks are available at Office Depot and OfficeMax stores and online. One ad says the backpack "offers soft-armored construction that has been independently tested to be impervious to certain gunfire."
Other bulletproof backpacks on the market are equally ineffective against rifle shots — and given that mass shooters are increasingly favoring assault rifles such as the AR-15, students with bulletproof backpacks might end up no safer in a shooting scenario than those attending school with a standard, inexpensive brand.
"Kids shouldn't have to worry about things like that,'' Ricca added. "Come on. When we're talking about putting armor on children in school, we're going in the wrong direction. Can we talk about policy? We would much rather focus on the things kids need."

Car Loans without Credit
Car Loans without Credit
Posted on November 3, 2017
The credit score system is certainly interesting and rife with plenty of ups, downs, and sideways shuffles that come with every purchase you make, loans you acquire, assets you own, and so forth. However, there's a fair number of people that are either new to the country or new to the stage of their lives where credit begins to become important.
For those of you out there that currently are interested in a car loan but do not have a credit score to speak of – we're here to help you out!
At Summerside Toyota you'll have an experience that stands out and steps up to your questions with answers that make sense and address your personal needs and expectations. When you are in the situation where you have no credit and want to apply for a car loan the steps are quite straightforward and simple. We recommend using a sizeable down-payment as a step in the right direction.
Documentation Proof And/Or a Co-Signer
Documentation is important for those who have no credit score to speak of. Bring along the active credit history that you have, even if it's quite empty, and provide evidence in the form of bills being paid – this might include phone bills, utilities, etc – and finally, bring proof of employment and paystubs or evidence of payments through cheques to help develop the image of who you are regardless of the actual credit situation you are in.
This can further be complemented by bringing along a co-signer to offer their weight to the process and effectively create a form of trust and reliability between you and the money lender that you intend to work with.
When you have these elements considered and laid out, or even if you are still collecting the documentation, please do not hesitate in reaching out to the team at Summerside Toyota and we'll be pleased to offer you insight and options that might better relate to you. We want you to have a great experience when you choose us – and have the skills to make it happen!
Work with our team and drive home in your next favourite vehicle without complications!

On 20 thAugust 2017, in a Bed-to-Bench-Letterto Experimental Dermatology, Shikha Raofrom the Emory University School of Medicine Atlanta Veterans Administration Medical Center, Atlanta, GA, USA, et al.presented a case report of a female patient, 84 years of age, with primary cutaneous Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL), leg type.
Key Highlights:
- CD20, BCL2, and BCL6 positive; CD3, CD30, and TP53 negative; contained infiltrating T-cells; little staining for PD-L1; no systemic involvement
- Multiple comorbidities including coronary artery disease, diastolic heart failure, sleep apnea, and diabetes mellitus
- After radiation (30 Gray in 10 sessions) and one IV dose of rituximab, presented with a 3cm nodule on right leg
- Punch biopsy performed and gentian violet (a triphenylmethane dye) introduced to cavity
- Patient was referred for surgical excision but did not take place due to hospitalization for coronary artery disease
- Followed up 4 months later where complete resolution of lesion was observed
- Ongoing remission at 12 months; cannot predict if patient will have lasting response
The authors hypothesized that gentian violet results in signaling changes in DLBCL cells allowing immune clearance to take place. They propose that gentian violet downregulates NADPH oxidase causing subsequent downregulation of NF-kB and Sox2, enhancing antigen presentation of tumor antigens on the cell surface. The authors concluded that gentian violet, as well as similar NADPH-oxidase inhibitors, given systemically warrants further assessment in human Lymphoma in pre-clinical trials.
In this case report, a patient of Primary Cutaneous Diffuse B-cell lymphoma, leg type was treated with intralesional gentian violet as she was judged to be too medically fragile for conventional chemotherapy due to advanced age and multiple serious comorbidities. Gentian violet (Crystal violet/ hexamethyl pararosaniline) is a triphenylmethane dye. It has been shown to have an inhibitory effect on NADPH oxidase, an enzyme family which is found in abundance in reactive oxygen driven tumors such as melanoma and lymphoma. We hypothesize that intralesional gentian violet treatment caused signaling changes in the lymphoma which allowed for immune clearance of the lymphoma. Complete resolution of the patient's lesion was noted on a follow up visit.

Jello Dig
I am always looking for fun and easy ways to entertain Liam. I came across this one on Pinterest and we most definitely had fun. Beware it is a little messy.
What you need:
2-3 Jello mixes (the more you use the deeper the dig will be)
Plastic container
Plastic toys
(All of this can be found at the dollar store)
Step 1:
Prepare the Jello according to directions in the plastic container.
Step 2:
Before you chill the Jello add fun toys for your little one to dig up.
Step 3:
After the Jello has set your kiddo up in a highchair at the table or on the floor. (Best to tape a plastic table clothes on the floor, makes for easier cleanup. This also can be purchased at the dollar store.
Have fun watching your child discover the toys.
Helpful Hint:
Don't eat all the Jello.

Well-Known Member
I am currently in high school, and am working toward my PPL. I plan on attending Purdue to get a degree in professional flight. I just wanted to know, after graduation, what happens? Do you get any automatic job offerings, or do you have to build time? Other than flight instructing, is there anything else available? Does anybody lower their minimums for graduates, or are there any jobs that you can get right out of school?
Thanks a lot!
Thanks a lot!

More Narnia-bashing from Polly Toynbee
I know atheists don't like this description. But what accounts for the incredible anger that comes from so many atheists?
9 comments:
He was the lamb, representing the meek of the earth, weak, poor and refusing to fight.
Ummm.... he trashed the temple and predicted it's destruction.
We need no holy guide books, only a very human moral compass.
Need we bring up the moral compass of the man behind the London blitzes?
Everyone needs ghosts, spirits, marvels and poetic imaginings, but we can do well without an Aslan.
That doesn't make sense. Aslan obviously haunts her.

Most atheists were raised Christian (or some other religion). No matter how atheist they are, they cannot excise this historical fact from their psyche. Unused and unbelieved thoughts pop up from the deep, thoughts about God, maxims about God in times of trouble, etc.. This is much like what happens after someone has removed himself from a powerful cult: ideation from the cult days come back during the strangest times.
When I first became an atheist a little over 10 (I was around 20 at the time), this involuntary ideation happened all the time, and I was admittedly somewhat angry about it, and was one of those combative atheists. I was naive about the power of history to shape our psyche, about the inertia which deep-rooted beliefs that guided my thinking wrt to morals, death, and other painful experiences. Nowadays when these vestigial psychological intruders invade my mind, they are like interesting butterflies.
Christian apologists are quite aware of this psychological inertia effect, and often seek to exploit it to convince people that "deep down" they really believe. This is bogus: try that out with the recovering anorexic who still has ideation about her fat stomach. Such manipulations by people witnessing still rouse my ire because it shows a lack of respect and sensitivity for complicated psychological evolution (my ire is in direct proportion to how shrill they are when they are peddling their goods, or how arrogant they are when trying to point out that it is "contradictory" to be an atheist and "mad at God").
Second-generation atheists, who have not been inculcated with a suite of beliefs about supernatural agents in their lives, typically don't have the same reaction.
Personally, when I became an atheist (itself a very slow and sometimes difficult process: not a single event), I was never mad at God for not existing. I was more mad at the thoughts that involuntarily popped into my mind, thoughts that I didn't believe anymore but were programmed in at a very young age.
Hopefully my kids won't have to suffer through such cognitive dissonance.

When in Sunday school, we all went to see ET one morning and then discussed the parallels with Christ's life. The irony, that Speilberg produced the movie, escaped me at the time. :)
Frankly, I wish I didn't know that the Chronicles was supposed to be a Christian allegory. That will be very distracting to me while I watch it, and probably make me like the movie less.
However, we now know from Gibson that Jesus sells, and the bottom line is what the studios ultimately care about. So Christians are probably in for a treat over the next N years!

The intellectual problem with Atheism is that it affirms a negative, the non-existence of something, which is logically impossible of proof.
So one of the things that is hard to understand is the passion with which they hold this non-existence. It is hard to escape the notion that they are really simply rejecting the obligations that believing in God would entail.
In other words, Atheism is simply a psychological form of the "non serviam" -- which lets them substitute their will as the highest imperative. But since it is a psychological rejection of a patent reality, like Lewis they are, deep down, faced with the contradition.

The intellectual problem with Atheism is that it affirms a negative, the non-existence of something, which is logically impossible of proof.
I am going to avoid getting into prolonged arguments about theism and its merits or lack thereof, but the above bologny is so prevalent, yet so obviously false, that it needs to be shot down every time it is uttered. Such arguments are typical in science, everyday reasoning, etc. Here is one counterexample:
1. If there exists a planet with three times the mass of Jupiter between Earth and the Sun, then we would expect such and such celestial dynamics.
2. We do not observe such and such celestial dynamics.
3. Therefore, there does not exist a planet with 3x the mass of Jupiter between Earth and the Sun.
At any rate, I don't know anybody whose beliefs about supernatural beings has those beliefs because of a single knock-down argument (this is because there are no such arguments to be found on either side of the issue). In practice, in the real world of people deciding how to make sense of loved ones dying, of impending death, of massive natural- disaster caused suffereing, such beliefs are nearly always based on a complicated critical mass of evidence. The evidence comes from lots of sources (psychosocial/cultural factors, science, traditional philosophy, historical scholarship).
Incidentally, as I have said before here, I became a non-Christian (though not an atheist) when some campus Crusaders asked me to search deep in my heart to see if I believed that Christ rose from the dead. I did it, and after being a lifelong Christian realized I thought that it was a preposterous thing to believe. I became a nonChristian theist for the next two years. For those witnessing, beware the argument via internal intuition: it can backfire! :) One person's "patent reality" (whatever that is) is another's patent absurdity.

'Lewis: I was at that time living like many atheists; in a whirl of contradictions. I maintained that God did not exist. I was also very angry with God for not existing. I was equally angry with him for creating a world. Why should creatures have the burden of existence forced on them without their consent?'
Lewis was clearly not the greatest thinker, was he?
- December 08, 2005 12:35 AM
- Rasmus Møller said...
Being a great thinker does not exclude strong emotions. Being able - like Lewis - to account lucidly for those strong emotions, where they are relevant, in fact increases his credibility. Bigger things than mindgames are at stake.
- December 08, 2005 2:34 AM
- Victor Reppert said...
Lewis was talking about what he believed as a teenager, and how he felt about it. And if you read Surprised by Joy, he did not completely censure the way his beliefs were formed.
- December 08, 2005 2:11 PM
But what accounts for the incredible anger that comes from so many atheists?
I know plenty of people who are mad at the way they were raised by religious hypocrites, particularly from Catholic backgrounds. On the other hand I've known a couple people raised by atheist parents and while usually not as angry as the theist turned atheist, they are nonetheless angry. I think it has to do with exclusion: being raised in a subculture that is still in the minority. There is definitely more there, I just don't know what it is.

I decided to go alone.
This was a first for me as I typically went to festivals with a large group of close friends. But this time I was living 1,000 miles away from them.
"I'm going to be volunteering at a 'conscious festival' this weekend, you should come!" Said a new friend of mine named Shoshanna that I met on Bumble in Denver Colorado.
I promptly googled the name of the festival and realized it was far different than anything I had ever been to. Meditation, yoga classes, ayurvedic workshops, ecstatic dancing, and a wide variety of live music including Slightly S
Part of my internal mission when moving to Colorado a little over a year ago was to live outside of my comfort zone, meet different people, and grow into my authentic self; whoever that may be.
So I saw this as a challenge and quickly accepted it. I knew only one person going, but I didn't even know how much I would actually see her.
Upon arrival, I quickly felt out of place. I felt as if everyone knew what was going on except me.
I wandered around this large plot of land situated perfectly between two beautiful ridges. We were in the foothills of the Colorado Rockies, overlooking a vibrant blue reservoir, and the temperature was a breezy eighty-something.
I decided to strike up a conversation with another wandering soul who seemed lost. We quickly became friends and began making more friends as if it was some kind of snowball effect.
We participated in yoga classes, meditation, reflection workshops, and met a wide variety of amazing people. This was all new and uncomfortable for me, but I did my very best to embrace every part of it.
Then, we attended a yoga/meditation/breathing class that once again challenged my ego. It envolved movements, breathing, and sounds that are traditionally thought of as embarrassing, aggressive or just flat out weird.
I tried to sink deeper into my authentic self, but I felt extremely uncomfortable. Next thing I know, the instructor is telling us to find a stranger and partner up.
I panic since that means social interaction in an already awkward environment. 20 seconds later, everyone has a partner but me and another man about 30 feet away from me. We make eye contact and smile at each other. We begin moving towards one another and briefly introduce ourselves.
She instructs us to lay flat on out back with our feet on opposite ends of each other so our faces are upside-down about 10 inches apart. Talk about an uncomfortable position that I've never found myself in, especially with another man!
As if things couldn't get any more uncomfortable, she tells us to stare at each other in the eyes for 60 seconds, which might as well have been an eternity.
We begin and my mind and body flood with thoughts and emotions.
"I don't think I can do this."
"How do I get out of this?"
"Should I smile or be serious."
"Which eye do I look at."
"Should I pretend to have something in my eye and look away?"
"How much longer do I have?"
The first 30 seconds truly felt like a minute or two. Then something happened.
I took a deep breath and relaxed my face. I began to only see his face and nothing else around it. I realized how beautiful his eyes and facial structure were and had this new appreciation for the human body. I even began to feel as if I was hallucinating a bit and seeing past his eyes and into his soul.
Trust me, I know how crazy that may sound to some.
Both of our eyes began to water as we approached the final seconds. I did it. "Wow… that was amazing."
I felt as if I had lowered my ego and moved past another limiting belief. This practice taught me that life and the humans around us are beautiful.
It taught me that we move through different levels of life both internally and externally by facing uncomfortable situations head on. It taught me that human connection, even to a stranger, is far more powerful than we could ever imagine.
We must break down the walls that our society has taught us to put up. The more we do this and the more we 'unlearn,' the quicker we become our true, authentic, beautiful, powerful selves.
The Deep Lunge
This is a small example of how I have changed my relationship with discomfort, but there are infinite ways you can do this.
One of the best examples was shared with me by a girl named Shoshanna, the same girl from above, who is also an amazing yoga instructor.
Throughout many yoga practices, we often find ourselves in uncomfortable or challenging positions. Maybe we are in a deep lunge long enough to make our quads burn and our ankles quiver. We have a few options at this point.
We can . . .
One. Tighten our face muscles, hold our breath, put ourselves in a less uncomfortable but potentially vulnerable position and think about when it's going to end.
Two. Hold our pose, relax our face, breathe deeply, and think about how we are lucky to feel this sense of growth within this challenging pose.
It's your body saying, "wow this is something I haven't really done, I'll be sure to grow from this so that next time you do this pose, you'll be better at it." #growth
Expand Your Career Through Discomfort
This way of thinking can be used in any area of life. For example, you can see your job as an uncomfortable and less than ideal part life, or you can see it as a blessing and work towards growing from it every day so you are prepared for the next opportunity life will inevitably give you.
As an entrepreneur, you can choose to see failure as wasted time, money, and energy; or, you can see it as a necessary lesson that will catapult you forward in a way you don't yet understand.
I challenge you to work towards changing your relationship with discomfort. The next time you feel any form of mental or physical discomfort, choose consciously to grow from it. Embrace lifes lessons and evolve into your authentic self every day.
KEY TAkeaway
Discomfort is not your enemy. In fact, it can be a lifelong friend. Simply changing your relationship with it can catapult you into growth, success, and happiness. Perspective is power. Learn to see the positive in any situation and you will win.

Golden, crispy and flavourful, it's no wonder that these spicy tidbits are so addictive. We used muruku powder to simplify the recipe. Muruku powder is made up of rice powder and a mixture of ground spices. It can be bought at most supermarkets.
Once you start, you just can't stop
Fry a huge batch and keep in an airtight container to enjoy during movie marathon nights.
For added texture and flavour, add roasted sesame seeds into the batter if you like.
Foodster's Verdict
1. Mix in grounded fennel seeds with the muruku flour.
2. Combine flour and fennel seeds with water. Mix until it forms a batter.
3. Add in ghee. Combine it into the batter.
4. Lay greaseproof paper on a cake pan or a flat surface.
5. Take a piece of the batter and put it in a muruku mould. Make sure to move the mould in a circular motion while squeezing the batter out. This helps to form the muruku rings.
6. If you prefer crispier muruku, use a smaller nozzle tip to produce thinner strands. If you don't have a mould, just roll the batter out into thin strands and form it into a coil.
7. Heat oil in wok. Once it is hot, put in the muruku.
8. Once muruku has turned golden brown, take them out of the wok and place on top of a layer of newspaper to help drain the excess oil.

Note to Ally McBeal's man-hungry Elaine (Jane Krakowski): There's a new hunk in town and he's available. Josh Hopkins joins the cast of the Fox dramedy tonight during the show's fifth season premiere playing lawyer Raymond Milbury. But Elaine better be willing to share: Hopkins tells TV Guide Online that he doesn't want to see his alter ego settling down with any one of Cage and Fish's comely counselors.
"I want to be dating all of them at the same time and not have any of them know it," winks the actor, whose credits include playing Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen in the TNT film Pirates of Silicon Valley and a recurring role on the WB's Jack & Jill. "You can't really go wrong. They're all beautiful and talented, so just point me in a direction."
Hopkins will have some competition in the romance department from X-Men hottie James Marsden, who also arrives on the scene tonight as a new hotshot lawyer. (Julianne Nicholson and Regina Hall round out the slate of new Ally regulars.) All matters of love and sex aside, does the son of former U.S. Representative Larry Hopkins feel any pressure to maintain the Emmy-winning show's creative and ratings resurgence from last season?
"I absolutely don't feel any pressure," he insists. "There's pressure put on yourself each time you start a new character, [but] as far as pressure to keep a show's momentum [going], I don't feel it rests on one of us or me personally."I'm just really excited to start to say [Ally creator] David E. Kelley's words and to work with a great ensemble cast," he adds. "I'm really excited more so than feeling any kind of pressure."

Great DIY window screen kit solution…..
We recently moved to a new home that has a number of casement windows with no screens. This wouldn't be a problem, except that whenever we open our windows we almost instantly attract flies and insects. After doing a bit of research, it seemed like most of our options were going to be pricey with custom window screens needed to be made.
But then we stumbled across these DIY window screens, and are happy we did! I installed each screen in about 20 minutes. So far, they're all holding up well. Although we haven't tried to remove the magnetic strip that's stuck to the window frame, the screen itself is easy to remove and reattach if needed.
Best of all, they work a treat – we can open the windows without having flies and insects invade our space. Definitely recommended for casement windows.

Whoever becomes the next Queensland premier has a chance to wind back the winner-takes-all approach that has worked its way back into the state's political culture over the past decade, particularly under the take-no-prisoners premiership of Campbell Newman.
In fact, a commitment to do so may be central to the next premier's ability to woo crossbenchers and form a minority government, unless Labor can reach a majority in its own right.
Improving accountability in Queensland will be crucial to restore the electorate's lost faith in government and its institutions. These are some of the quick gains that Labor leader Annastacia Palaszczuk and any prospective leaders of the Liberal National Party should be considering right now.
No more nobbling of critics
For a start, the chair of the state's corruption watchdog, the Crime and Corruption Commission, has to be a bipartisan appointment (as it was before the LNP changed procedures last year). And the parliamentary committee that oversees the commission has to behave with independence without the risk of being sacked, as it was last year.
Parliamentary estimates committees need to be given the time and resources to do their job properly, and not be nobbled as they have been recently.
Public disclosure of electoral donations has to return to its previous level. Labor has committed to bring back the declaration threshold from A$12,800 to A$1000; the LNP should do the same.
These are all simple steps and should be uncontroversial, because they are essential for sound government.
The winding back of such accountability measures has been an important part of the background noise that started turning the electorate off Newman and the first conservative Queensland government with an absolute majority since 1989.
How the mighty fall
Despite good results in health and education, and strong steps to take on organised crime, the LNP could be unceremoniously returned to the opposition benches. The final result is still too close to call. It would be a dramatic fall from the LNP's grip on 78 seats of an 89-seat parliament just under three years ago.
The LNP's core promise of privatisation (dressed up as a lease, rather than sale of government assets) is dead. Its election promises, contingent on the billions from the privatisations, are dead too.
And Newman – the leader who dominated wiser heads in the LNP partyroom and organisation to force his own way on virtually every issue – will be gone, as soon as he finishes serving as caretaker premier.
Newman's flaws were well known to most around him before he became the state LNP leader. But dealing with those flaws was always a second-term issue for fear of the consequences of standing up to a leader whose military training never extended to diplomacy.
Ironically, there were two reminders during the election campaign from two starkly different voices about the cost to the state of this take-no-prisoners approach.
From the right, Queensland-born broadcaster Alan Jones daily lambasted Newman personally and his team for decisions that demonstrated a lack of accountability.
And from the centre (or left, depending on where you stand) former corruption commissioner Tony Fitzgerald blamed the Newman government for taking Queensland back to a new low.
The LNP would now do well to listen and act on these warnings, rather than attack its critics.
And with barely any real policy promises on offer, a prospective Labor government should do the same.
Labor's chance to get off on the right foot
Palaszczuk's strength as Labor leader has been in presenting a moderate face, with a promise to unite and listen to the community. Restoring the lost instruments of keeping government accountable would only build on that appeal to a united Queensland.
She does, however, have a steep mountain to climb with a massive, untried backbench and not enough existing members even to match her promise to create a slimmed-down ministry of 14. A lot of novices would be on her frontbench. But guess what: that's nothing new. The scale of swings means every new state government has more untried than tested talent at the start of its term.
Palaszczuk starts with a potential frontbench of five former ministers and at least two who have substantial experience in ministerial offices. That's better than Newman had in 2012.
Whether their quality matches his is a different matter – but this election result shows the electorate doesn't really care about that if the policies and the leader are unpalatable.
The Abbott factor
The natural response to what has happened in Queensland is to look at Prime Minister Tony Abbott's leadership.
But one important point shouldn't be overlooked. Campbell Newman has been deeply unpopular for 18 months; his personal popularity and his party's vote rose only when he took himself out of the limelight with Operation Boring.
This was more a Newman problem than an Abbott problem. But this state election does show that you can only hide a leader people no longer trust for so long before the electorate gets to deliver its verdict.

Kapangan Benguet heralds the famous Grand March dance. It is also the hometown of the late Gov. Bado Dangwa, one of the prominent Cordilleran figures. But did you know? Kapangan also hosts fascinating tourist spots worthy of exploration and admiration. Slowly, it's hitting a spot in the growing ecotourism world.
Fortunately, the local government is supporting such an industry. If properly done, ecotourism can help boost the local industry and promote community-based development. Now without further ado, let us walk you towards the tourist spots in Kapangan.
READ: Bayokbok Falls in Tuel, Tublay (Your Complete Travel Guide)
How to get to Kapangan, Benguet
The tourist spots in Kapangan, Benguet are dispersed on several barangays. That is why, it is highly recommended that you visit the Municipal Tourism Office at Lomon, Paykek before proceeding to your preferred destinations. In that way, the municipal officials will help in setting up your itinerary and in recommending spots to visit. They will also assist in coordinating with the respective barangay officials. Plus, you'll get the chance to take pictures with the ever-enthusiastic mayor if he's there.
From Baguio City, ride jeeps bound to central Kapangan/Poblacion. These are stationed at Dangwa Station (back of Center Mall). I'll give you more detailed information about this soon.
From the same station, you can also ride Dangwa and Dakiwagan Liner buses bound to Kibungan as these traverse central Kapangan. Time of departures are 5:30 am-6:00 am, 10:00 am, 11:00-12:30pm, 2:00 pm, 3:30pm, and 5:00 pm. Don't forget to tell the driver to drop you at Central Kapangan.
Chasing Falls in Kapangan, Benguet
The mountainous terrains of Kapangan normally created many waterfalls.
Badi falls is the most popular among these. This is actually a series of at least five beautiful waterfalls at a remote outskirt of barangay Sagubo. The highest of which, measures more than 50 meters high. Some of the falls also have naturally-built pools with icy-cold and crystal-clear waters. Aside from swimming, rappel is often done here. To get here, one needs to hike for more or less two hours from the community proper. Good thing, the trail is well-established though there are steep and slippery parts. Badi falls is a tourist spot in Kapangan you must not miss.
In addition, we have the majestic Pey-og Falls of barangay Boklaoan. It measures more than 100 meters high, making it the highest falls of Kapangan. To get here, trek for an hour or two from the barangay. You will be passing by forested trails, making it even more rewarding and rejuvenating. Upon reaching the falls, its sheer height and beauty offers an instant relief. Its waters cascade in layers like drizzles from the heavens. Even from as far as Halsema Highway in Atok, the waterfalls can be seen especially when it's on full force during the rainy months.
Other cascades found in Kapangan are Pul-agan falls, Cotinge falls, Dageyadey falls, and Kantaw falls. Many more are yet to be explored and named.
Spelunking Kapangan's caves of Enchantment
Kapangan, Benguet is definitely a must-see destination for cave enthusiasts and spelunkers. Several caves can be found, however, only the following has been validated for ecotourism purposes.
First, there is Longog Cave. This is perhaps, the most popular and easily accessible cave in Kapangan. It is located at barangay Balacbac, at the foot of Mt. Dakiwagan. From the road, it takes at least 10 minutes of hike to reach the cave. It has a narrow opening and you literally have to clamber on slippery rocks and columns before you get deeper. At some point, you also need to crawl on your belly. So expect to get sandy and muddy. But the challenges of getting inside are eventually dissipated as you marvel on various stalactite and stalagmite rock formations there. There are also pristine pools with icy-cold waters.
Second, there is Bolingaongao Cave of barangay Paykek. Aside from the glittering rock formations inside, this cave is special for another reason. According to the locals, it played an important historical role during World War II as it provided a safe haven for the locals. There is an area at the mouth of the cave which is suitable for camping purposes. From the Acop-Kapangan road, one must hike at least four kilometers before reaching the cave's entrance.
Third, we have Bulalakao Cave, found in barangay Taba-ao. It is along the Bolinsak creek where you can find beautiful pools with crystal-clear waters. The cave is named as such because it is a dwelling place of bulalakao, a bird that appears only at night. Accordingly, it creates a frightening sound. Just like in Longog cave, spectacular stalagmite and stalactite formations can be found here. Just near the mouth of the cave, there is a view deck where one can gaze on the mountainscapes of Kapangan.
Experiencing Kapangan's Cave of the Dead
If you are looking to experience cultural wonders, why not try visiting Kapangan's caves of the dead. Surely, you'll get a glimpse of the authentic practices of the locals and appreciate the uniqueness of their identity.
For one, we have Balabag Mummy Cave, found in barangay Beleng-Belis. It sits at the foot of Mt. Balabag. Oh yes, you can also gaze on stalagmite and stalactite formations here. From the barangay proper, it takes more or less three hours of hike to get here. After visiting the cave, you can trek to Mt. Balabag and enjoy its rustic and scenic views.
Similarly, you can also glimpse of Puga Burial Cave and Pungayan Burial Cave. Here, one can find piles of skulls and bones. These showcase how the people buried their dead in the past. These are similar to the caves found in Sagada. The locals consider these spots sacred. That is why, be culturally-sensitive when coming here. Never steal or even touch the bones.
Assaulting the peaks of Kapangan, Benguet
Mt. Dakiwagan is one of the numerous peaks found in Kapangan, Benguet. One can readily see it along the Acop-Kapangan-Kibungan road. From a distance, the mountain displays the head of a man as well as other interesting shapes and features. It also shows the face of Santa Claus. From the road, it takes at least three hours of hike to reach its peak. While atop, one can have a panoramic view of the landscapes of Kapangan, and it's neighboring municipalities of Kibungan and Tublay. The mighty Amburayan River can also be seen from here.
Then, there is the Mt. Bubongna of Kapangan Central. This mountain also plays an important historical role. According to the locals, it served as a campsite of the Japanese forces during World War II because of its strategic location. This was also where a local guerilla killed a Japanese captain, heralding the locals' heroism. Aside from that, the mountain offers a fascinating view of the lowlands. To get here, one needs to hike for one kilometer from the barangay center.
Other hiking destinations in Kapangan are Mt. Kalukasog, Amkiyet Mountain Range, and Camp Utopia. Camp Utopia, by the way, was a former campsite and hideout of the US armed forces along with their local collaborators.
What Else to See?
Amburayan River. This emanates from the pine-covered mountains of Atok, Tublay, and Kapangan. Different marine species such as eels, small shrimps, and fishes thrive here. Its riverbanks are perfect sites for picnic and other recreational activities. Its pristine waters are fit for swimming and diving. In the past, a spill from an open pit mine contaminated the river, causing massive fish kills. Fortunately, it has seen gradual regeneration and revival through the years.
Catampan Rice Terraces. It is just one of the several rice terraces of Kapangan, Benguet. Heirloom rice varieties are grown here. It is best to come here just before the harvest season or just after the planting season.
Kapangan Museum. This proudly showcases various artifacts and materials, depicting the rich culture and history of the locals. The municipal officials currently manage the museum. Accordingly, its location is the site where the first municipal building was built. Historical accounts also show that this is where Japanese soldiers tortured Filipino prisoners during World War II.
Tips and Reminders
- Always coordinate with the tourism office of Kapangan. They will help in organizing your itinerary and in coordinating with the local officials. Contact details are listed below.

Try Speaking Local Utterances
As goes a popular adage, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do." In the same way, you can also try conversing with the locals using their language. This is especially helpful in building rapport with the community. Kankanaey is the main language in Kapangan. Take note, this is different from the Kankanaey language of some communities in Mountain Province. I get it. You don't need to be well-versed. But you can at least try common utterances such as the following. Have fun learning and using them.
|Common Utterances/Expressions

Last Chance To Comment on Milk Alternatives
The time for producers to supply their comments to FDA about the use of dairy names for plant-based products closes in a few hours. The National Milk Producers Federation (NMPF) is making one last push to make sure dairy imitators can't use milk as a product description.
"Clear, accurate labeling is a fundamental matter of truth and transparency for consumers," NMPF said in comments filed with the agency. According to surveys over the past six months:
• 77% of buyers of dairy and plant-based beverages think almond-based drinks have as much or more protein than dairy, when in fact real milk has as much as eight times more protein;
• 78% thought plant-based beverages had at least as many vitamins and minerals as dairy, again incorrect;
• 68% thought such beverages had at least as many "key nutrients" such as calcium and potassium, which they do not; and
• While consumer confusion over nutrition is a key NMPF concern, research funded by plant-based beverage supporters found more basic confusion: Roughly 25% of consumers were unsure whether plant-based beverages contained cow's milk.
"These misperceptions about non-dairy foods are real. The imitations confuse customers who rely on names and product packaging to make judgments about a food. Those customers deserve transparency," said Brody Stapel, president of Edge Dairy Farmer Cooperative and a Wisconsin dairy farmer. "Our dairy farmers and processors work hard to produce incredible food. Milk and dairy products — real dairy foods — offer almost unbeatable nutritional value, and customers deserve to know this."
As of Friday FDA had received more than 12,000 comments. FDA will accept comments through 11:59 eastern this evening. You can still get your comments in by going here.

NEW ORLEANS — Vikings tight end Kyle Rudolph is scheduled to have a magnetic resonance imaging exam Monday on his right groin muscle after being sidelined late in the fourth quarter of Sunday's 20-9 loss to the Saints.
"Something popped," Rudolph said. "I've been battling it for a while."
Rudolph went down on Minnesota's final drive. He was tended to by trainers on the field and the bench before returning briefly for a snap.
Rudolph was targeted five times and caught three passes for 27 yards and remains mired in the Vikings' offensive slump. He has seven catches for 69 yards and a touchdown, which he scored in Week 1 at St. Louis.
Expectations are high for the three-year veteran, whom the Vikings signed to a five-year contract extension in July that could be worth up to $40 million.
A broken foot sidelined Rudolph for the final eight games of 2013. He shed 16 pounds during the offseason to increase his speed and route running and said he priority was remaining healthy.
Rudolph's productive career at Notre Dame was marred by shoulder and hamstring injuries that required surgery. He already earned Pro Bowl most valuable player honors after catching nine touchdowns in 2012, the second-most by a Vikings tight end in a season behind Visanthe Shiancoe's 11 in 2009.

Mary Murray RIP
June 27, 1934 - August 28, 2018
Mary P. Murray
June 27, 1934 - August 28, 2018
Mary was born on June 27, 1934 to Tom and Anne "Daisy" Carty in a house on Concord Street on the east side of Detroit. Tom and Daisy had immigrated to Detroit from Ireland and were married after meeting at the Gaelic League-Irish American Club. Daisy died when Mary was 5 years old and shortly after her death, Tom and Mary moved to Dearborn to live with Tom's cousin Mike Carty and his wife Mary Jane and their newborn daughter, Judy. Mary Jane and Mike soon welcomed a son Pat followed by another daughter Maureen and although cousins with Mary by birth, Judy, Pat and Maureen became Mary's sisters and brother and most importantly, lifelong friends.
As a young girl, Mary would accompany her father on monthly Sunday visits to her Mother's grave in Mt. Elliot Cemetery directly across the street from St. Bonaventure Monastery (commonly known as the Fr. Solanus Center). Her father would send young Mary into the Monastery to get Mass Cards and it was at that time Mary would talk to Fr. Solanus Casey, the Porter of St. Bonaventure. Those encounters with the now Blessed Solanus led to a lifelong connection Mary would have to St. Bonaventure, a place she only referred to as The Monastery. Mary was a lifelong member of the Fr. Solanus Guild and continued those monthly visits to the Monastery her entire life. Her faithfulness to the cause of Fr. Solanus' Sainthood was a great example to her family who are now lucky to have a connection to Blessed Solanus and the Monastery thanks to their Mother's example.
Mary graduated from Dearborn Sacred Heart High School in 1952 where she served as Senior Class Secretary. Mary attended Nazareth College near Kalamazoo earning her degree in Education in 1956. Mary taught elementary school in Lincoln Park for a few years before she married Chris Murray on August 19, 1961.
Mary and Chris were blessed with six children in eight years and then in 1977 welcomed her seventh and final child, her namesake, pride and joy, Mary Christine. As if raising seven children wasn't enough of a full time job, Mary also provided the operational support for the family construction business. Additionally, Mary served as the program manager for the Irish Fireside Radio Show that Chris hosted on WQRS for 12 years from 1968-1980. Every Sunday morning, Mary would sit on the family room floor and compile a list songs that would be used that afternoon on the radio show.
Mary also opened up her home to host extended family members visiting from Ireland and countless musicians who would performed at the Gaelic League and Irish American Club in Detroit. The two most special guests over the years were Mary's sister-in-law, Margaret Murray and niece Bridget who stayed with Mary and Chris when they immigrated to Detroit from England in 1971. The time Margaret and Bridget stayed with Mary when they first arrived established a very special friendship that spanned 48 years. Mary, Margaret and Bridget shared trips to Mackinaw Island, Niagara Falls and Ireland but their Thursday night dinners at Big Boy's and then Applebee's provided very special times for them.
While family was everything to Mary, it came a close second to her faith in God. Over the years her humble faith in God served as the primary source of Mary's strength and inspiration to be an outstanding wife, mother, sister, aunt, neighbor and friend to countless people. Mary attended daily mass for over 50 years at Dearborn Divine Child where she offered prayers to lift anyone she knew who was in need.
Mary was preceded in death earlier this year by her husband Chris and is survived by her seven children: Tom (Maureen); John (Brenda); Patrick (Terrie); Ann (Anthony) Slusser; Michael (Terri); Maureen (Noel) Kelly; and Mary (Chris) Laney. Chris and Mary were married for 56 years and Mary was a proud grandmother to: Megan (Greg) Hatty, Michelle Murray, Sean Murray, Molly Murray, Brendan Murray, Declan (Kelly) Murray, Emily (Tyler) Joseph, Brigid Murray, Maeve Murray, Christopher Murray, Ciara Murray, Olivia Murray, Conor Murray, Justin Murray, Brendan Slusser, Claire Murray, Katie Slusser, Quinn Murray, Sean Slusser, Liam Kelly, Aidan Slusser, Ellen Laney, Jack Kelly, Niall Laney and Owen Laney; and Great-grandmother to Eleanor and Teddy Hatty. Mary now joins two of her grandchildren, Maeve Murray and Aidan Slusser who despite only living a short time remain in the hearts of the Murray Family as our guardian angels.
Mary was a dear cousin to Judy Carty (Ed Falzon), Pat Carty (Debbie Dunn) and Maureen Carty (Stan Kozlowski) and best friend to sister-in-law Margaret Murray and niece Bridget Murray; also survived by several brother's and sister's in-law and countless nieces and nephews.
May Mary rest in her Eternal reward now and forever more with her loving husband Chris. May God reward them for their kindness and generosity throughout their lives.

It isn't necessary to stop using Isagenix products prior to getting blood work done unless your healthcare provider asks you to. For many common blood tests, your doctor may instruct you to fast overnight or for eight hours before your appointment. Generally, this means no food, nutritional supplements, or beverages other than water for the period of time that you have been instructed to fast.

The new MacBook Pro's Touch Bar may be causing mixed reviews among the technology world, will integration for Logic Pro X and other DAW be productive?
Apple has informed an AppleInsider that Touch Bar support for audio production software will be available in early 2017. Other DAW developers such as Propellerhead and Image Line, have not let confirmed their support for the Touch Bar yet.
The question is, how will the Touch Bar benefit your workflow as a producer?
The Touch Bar is a very small OLED Screen which can be assigned to perform different roles on the MacBook Pro. The aim of this is to increase your workflow on any application you use.
Having access to control the little things in DAW software such as recording, playing or pausing using the Touch Bar, would definitely increase your workflow. It may seem like a gimmick, because it only takes a few seconds to move your mouse to click play. On the other hand, it would indefinitely be quicker to just tap the Touch Bar!
Now there are many features in which producers would like, which developers may not place in their software. Pitch-bend is a popular feature used in DAW's which many producers overlook. Nevertheless, it would be handy to have this on the Touch Bar. Making your 808's pop would be much easier if this feature was added for producing on the go when you don't always have a MIDI controller with you.
Which leads onto adding a MIDI controller to the Touch Bar. May seem a bit creative here, but tapping on your keyboard doesn't always work, especially when latency wants to show its head. However, having a MIDI controller built into the Touch Bar, creating a drum loop using basic imaginary pads would be productive.
Above all, investing in the new MacBook Pro would only benefit producers if we are afforded customisation from the developers. If the developers create set buttons for us to use, then we are limited to their ideas.
Creating an editor similar to MIDI controller editors, will make producing on the new MacBook Pro beneficial for users. Having freedom to place what buttons you want, is paramount to the value of investing in the new MacBoook Pro.
Otherwise the new TouchBar is just a gimmick.
From Page 2, there are 5 features which AskAudio have highlighted as great ideas which can improve your workflow process using the New MacBook Pro.
Let us know in the comments on what features you would like to see.

Bb- and A-Clarinet
(Photo credit: Wikipedia)
The enjoyment of musical performance by both the performer and listener depends on several factors apart from the work being performed, two of these are the instruments tonal qualities and its tuning.
The clarinet tone is dependent on the design and construction of the instrument, the clarinet reed and the skill of the player developed over many years of practice.
Instrument design and construction has gradually been improved over the years and quality instruments are now capable of producing a very fine tone indeed, given a good quality instrument the bore of the Clarinet will affect the tone and this has become a fashion thing which has varied over the years, a slightly larger diameter bore will produce more of a mellow tone than a smaller bore which would be referred to as a bright sound, however, it must be recognized that the player has a great influence on the sound produced.
Factors affecting tone are the air supply and how the player controls its flow into the instrument with the tongue together with the lips controlling the reed, a steady flow of air into the instrument is achieved by control from the diaphragm, I prefer to think of it as breathing into the instrument rather than blowing. A fine tone can only be developed by playing long sustained notes and slow tunes as part of the daily practice over the formative years, in fact, this aspect of practice should always be part of the daily routine.
Clarinet tuning is, of course, a very important part of the player's activity, and yet it is an activity which is frequently misunderstood by conductors and players, modern quality clarinets have come a long way in this respect the over the past fifty years but we still see players setting up their instruments incorrectly.
The availability of affordable electronic tuners certainly helps but the recognition of the correct procedure is frequently missing. The body of most common instrument pitched in B flat is made in five parts, starting at the top we have the mouthpiece, the barrel, the upper joint, the lower joint and the bell.
At the end of the mouthpiece and the upper and lower joints cork covered tenon's push into the barrel and the bell, the method of tuning most frequently adopted is to warm up the instrument by playing for a few minutes, temperature will cause the pitch to rise, and then with the joints pushed together play B with all holes covered, this will be a little sharp, then pull out the barrel to lower the pitch to the correct level, unfortunately this approach will put some parts of the instruments range out of tune!
The correct method of tuning is to start with all fingers off, this will give open G then adjust the barrel to bring G into tune, then play B with all holes covered and pull out the center joint to bring B into tune, a good instrument will then be in tune over most of its range, the highest register, above top C may need adjustment on some notes with the players embouchure.

So this year is racing by, and we are reaching the end of August and the beginning of September. Summer seems to be leaving us behind very quickly.
This week we have a new contributor, Ellie who is examining the French editions of the Famous Five. This is a post not to be missed!
Fiona will be treating us to another chapter of the Secret Island comparison and I shall probably be doing another photo blog for my latest trip to Old Thatch and Bourne End.
I don't think we have any blog news this week, so I shall leave you with some of my newly edited photos from the first half of my holiday to Dundee, when we were at Monike Country Park and in Dunkeld climbing over waterfalls and things!

With the rise of video over the past few years, a wide spectrum of video content has become available to marketers to leverage. A growing number of marketers are choosing to include video in their marketing plans to capitalise on the format's reach, value and proclivity to proliferate the farthest corners of the world wide web. Video is powered tremendously by social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, which have collectively employed a clever quiver of tools to optimise the video viewing experience in recent years. From auto-play to live video streaming features, a veritable framework for video content has been built across virtual communication sites. Live video streaming has been the latest entrant in the video marketing arena. With a slew of live video streaming frameworks having made their way to the market, the adoption of live video by organisations has only been fuelled for the better. StreamNow, a turnkey live streaming software developed by Streamhash is emblematic of this colossal shift to live video. It has been implemented by myriad technology companies across the world as simply an additional layer to their existing technology stack. Its plug-and-play model is versatile, easy to use and intimate enough to lend every organisation a unique flavour.
If you've been scrambling for live streaming ideas, here's a list that will get you going.
Idea 1. Live Event
A business event streamed live is an ideal way to bind your stakeholders, even the ones who aren't there in person. A conference, an exhibition, a seminar; any corporate event is worth streaming as long as you have a sizeable following. Event live streaming can be tailored to the tastes of your audience. If you favour a more formal approach, perhaps a stationary camera could be adequate to cover the goings-on of your event. For more personalised, hands-on coverage, you could wire up an on-the-go live stream that can capture interviews, opinions and thoughts of visitors on the floor. Once you're seasoned in the live video streaming space, you'll know what your audience responds to best, and you'll organically start creating your live video feeds to mesh with their interests.
Idea 2. Keynote Influencer
While you may have influencers and speakers scattered through special events like the ones mentioned above, this idea is more rooted in the projection of the influencer themselves. There could be various ways to select a significant influencer for your live video stream. You could pick someone from your domain or someone who commands authority amongst your followers, not necessarily from your industry at all. A celebrity, invited as a guest speaker, for instance could be a fantastic way to showcase your brand through a live stream. The great thing about a live broadcast is that you can interact with viewers in real-time, making them feel like they are a part of the event. Coverage of a keynote influencer can be a wonderful keyhole to never-seen-before content, in turn, drawing potential users to your brand. Live video streaming software like StreamNow are device-agnostic, which means that you can broadcast to users across a spectrum of devices, making sure that your stream does not get lost somewhere down the road.
Idea 3. Interesting Tête-à-Tête
Interesting interactions in the form of interviews and conversations can serve as engaging content for users. Plus, they're much easier to plan than other formats of content. Tête-à-têtes can generate traction especially when the person you're interacting with already has a considerable foothold in the digital realm. Of course, if your guest is a coveted invitee, it may be wiser to record, edit and stitch your interview together to highlight the bits that went well. However, for a more authentic approach, a live stream may make more sense. A live broadcast may entail significant planning in advance, so be prepared to put in the extra hours to make sure that everything is laid out for D-day. Interviews needn't always be in person. They can even be over video conferencing, in which case your viewers will see both parties framed in two separate windows on the screen.
Idea 4. Skill Sharing
A live stream where you're talking to your audience can be valuable if you have insights to offer. Perhaps you have a skill that you'd like to share or are well-versed in a specific topic. Whatever it is that you want to talk about, a live stream is perfect because it dispenses information in a more engaging way than text. It's important to be prepared when you share a skill. Make notes in advance about the key topics that you'd like to cover and flesh out the content under each topic. The beauty of a live stream is that you don't need a script in order to talk. You can speak as you go along, using your notes as a guide.
Idea 5. Interaction Forum
The only form of video that allows real-time interactions is live video streaming. StreamNow facilitates comments during live feeds, making your broadcast a fitting means to host questions. While you can take questions in real-time, it's worth inviting questions in advance so as to save time scrolling through a live feed.
Idea 6. Live Tour
Whether your offerings are tangible or intangible, a tour of your office or factory is always a fabulous way to share a little bit of your brand with the world. During the feed, you can feature key elements of your office, the best-known faces in your organisation and possibly, the banter that takes place over lunch break. By humanising your brand, you can strike a chord with your users.
Idea 7. Product Demonstrations
If you've got a product that requires instruction, a live demonstration can work wonders. A live broadcast can facilitate question-and-answer sessions and allow people to feel more involved in the unveiling of your product. Plus, it can make your product look more genuine as users follow you through the beats of your demo. It's worthwhile to do a practice demo before you jump into the real thing because you may want to iron out challenges before opening your broadcast to the world. Make your product demo lighthearted, interesting and fun and keep it as natural as possible.
You can use live video streaming for any of the ideas mentioned above and as you dig deeper into its potential, you'll find specific ways that fit well with your audience. Explore and innovate along the way and unlock a whole world of live streaming opportunities.
