Sniper's Paradise
Go for the X!
After zeroing the HOLOsight, I used targets such as milk jugs, cans, and plastic bottles that I generally placed, in no particular fashion, around the local public access range. Now, "range" in this case is a nice word for "dump." Short of organic debris, people use this particular area for all sorts of "let's see what a bullet will do to THIS" tests. It isn't the usual place I go shooting at, but for something like the HOLOsight I wanted to use a place where I had a little freedom to operate. Using some of my prairie dog handloads, I zeroed the rifle with the standard reticle, and then walked around the range ("dump") shooting the targets I'd layed out as well as "targets of opportunity" that presented themselves. My farthest shot was probably one of the jugs at 320 yards which just happened to be when I was using the standard reticle. However, I really liked the open crosshair and dot reticles, too. For closer shots, the open reticle seemed to suit me well, and although I didn't have any "movers" to engage, I'm sure I'd prefer this reticle over the other two because it would allow me to apply some level of "lead" when setting up the shot. However, no matter which reticle I was using, it was easy for me to quickly get onto the target and take the shot. Even though there is no projection of light onto the target itself, it sure looks that way! Using this sight was probably the most "fun" I've had in years during a range session!
It's important to note, again, that the intensity of the reticle can be adjusted to suit the current light conditions. On the day I was shooting it was partly cloudy, and I used a brightness setting that was probably in the middle of the spectrum. For more precise shooting, you'd probably be better off dialing down the brightness to achieve a more clearly-defined reticle. There is some tendency for the brightest setting of the reticle to obscure a minute portion of whatever you use as an aiming point, but this isn't what I would call "a problem." If you need the brightest setting for the type of shooting you'll be doing, it's on tap with just the push of a button.
When most people think about "tactical shooting," they think about bolt-guns with telescopic sights. A select few will think about semiautomatics with telescopic sights. However, sometimes we have to look at things differently -- as my gunsmith likes to say, we must learn to "free ourselves from the box." That is, we too often restrict our perspective on things based on traditional approaches. While there is nothing necessarily wrong with traditional approaches, there are occasions that require us to expand our thinking. In terms of tactical shooting, some operations might be better suited to an AR-15 (or similar rifle) equipped with a HOLOsight than the "usual" long-range rifle with a mil-dot scope. Only you can decide what works best for you in different situations, but the HOLOsight certainly bears strong consideration as an alternative sighting system.
For information on the HOLOsight

On a lonely hill I stand in plain view,
Reaching out to the heavens, blue.
People walk up to talk to me;
For I am known as the Wisdom Tree.
They ask for my guidance in choices they make
Hoping I'd show them which path to take.
I see desperation, despair and concern
In eyes that seek and hearts that yearn.
They notice my crooked shoulders, then
And wonder how I endure the pain when
I stand so serenely, old yet secured,
Under heavy load- all their troubles procured.
Then, all I do is whisper soft
With the wind rustling my leaves aloft.
In response to their questions, my answer the same
Each time and again I redeem my name:
See how I live, I survive and exist
Simply; I sway in the wind then resist,
Drink water from deep subterranean stock,
My roots are settled in solid rock.

Yet for the rest of society, particularly the poorest, things are getting tougher by the day. Long-term unemployment is at it's highest level since 1997, demonstrating that Labour have failed in everything that they have tried to do. Without bread and butter we are nothing, if we have no work, we are doomed. 8 million people or 21% of people of working age are classified as economically inactive, meaning that they contribute nothing, for all sorts of reasons, many genuine, many not. Public sector employment hit 6 million shortly before new year. We are all paying the price for Gordo's empire building; the ruthless and fanaticaly obsession with growing the state to mercilessly nanny every aspect of our lives. It will all have to go. Let's see the money re-invested in finding public sector workers, new jobs in the private sector. Let's see the money re-investedin in finding work for the economically inactive. Let's invest in employment, rather than investing in control. Labour have ploughed 13 years of taxes into maximising control, it's unsustainable and it's no wonder we're in such a mess.

Labour, enemy of the poorest and scourge of the vulnerable
Labour don't even have to pretend that they are a party for the rich, it's impossible for them to hide. They are so obsessed with wealth that their thoughts are preoccupied by how rich they are going to become when they leave parliament. Lucrative tours of the after dinner speech circuit or consultancy work for lobbying firms will keep their fur-lined pockets awash with silver and gold. They are of course helped on their way by generous resettlement allowances and golden handshakes. Labour MPs are a group of people who don't have to even think twice about setting foot in a Job Centre. The fact that they've never been inside one anyway is of comfort to these monumental troughers.

And of course the green taxes - they haven't really started yet. They will shortly when the utility providers start their long haul to even greater profits.ReplyDelete
Very true. I'll never forget having to fork out £300 for a new catalytic converter on an old car, where the car was worth less than the price of the new catalytic converter. All just to bring the CO2 output down by a few parts per million. All an unproven and tenuous link with AGW!ReplyDelete

As the world's top investment bankers flock to Russia's second capital this weekend for the St. Petersburg economic forum, attention will once again focus on Dmitry Medvedev's efforts to transform Moscow into an international financial centre.
The President's initiative is central to efforts to diversify the economy from its dependence on exports of raw materials and to shield it from global market shocks by strengthening the domestic capital market.
Though the drive may still seem quixotic to many investors, the President has in recent months unveiled a series of measures that aim to elevate Russia's standing from a volatile local market widely perceived as plagued by red tape and a mercurial legal system, to a regional financial powerhouse.
Among the first big concrete steps is the merger in February of the country's two main bourses, the RTS and Micex stock exchanges.
This will help centralize capital markets and simplify the structure for investors.
Roman Lokhov, chief executive officer of Otkritie Securities, the Russian brokerage, says he believes the creation of a centralized clearing house and depositary will follow.
He says the growing appetite among Russian investors for access to sophisticated derivatives means "there is huge potential for the market that is not utilized yet."
Alexander Merzlenko, deputy chief executive of Renaissance Capital, the Moscow investment bank, agrees that the long-awaited merger is now close to being "irreversible," while the government's privatization drive to sell more than $32-billion (U.S.) in state assets over the next three years could also boost domestic capital markets.
While big Russian assets have traditionally headed to the London Stock Exchange to attract deeper, longer-term pools of cash, the government is considering selling big state assets on the local exchange, Mr. Merzlenko says.
"One of the [top] priorities is the development of domestic equity markets," he says. "The government is asking investment bankers how to manage the objectives of getting the best price and raising the profile of the company, and also developing financial markets here."
In one potential endorsement of the domestic market, German Gref, chief executive officer of Sberbank, the country's biggest bank, proposed conducting the sell-off of a 7.6-per-cent stake in the state-controlled entity via the Micex exchange either this year or next, as part of the privatization drive.
Improvements must be made to the investment climate and the legal system, though, if Russia is to attract the investments needed to develop into a top ranking capital market.
To this end, Mr. Medvedev has unveiled a series of initiatives aimed at empowering minority shareholders and boosting transparency.
He has ordered the removal of government ministers from the boards of state companies, to start dismantling the system of state capitalism known as Kremlin Inc. established under Vladimir Putin.
Mr. Medvedev has called for the adoption of international accounting standards by all companies and for greater disclosure of information to minority shareholders.
Critics say these moves may gain little traction against the entrenched interests of officials. Igor Shuvalov, first deputy prime minister, says government ministers on state company boards are likely to be replaced not by independent directors but by trustees who will vote according to government directives.
"We have a situation where Medvedev is forwarding concrete initiatives but he has no means to implement without the government, which is blocking them," says Alexey Navalny, the corporate governance activist, who recently faced criminal investigation in what some say is a backlash against his activities uncovering corruption at state companies.
Indeed, as long as uncertainty remains over whether Mr. Medvedev will lead Russia beyond presidential elections in 2012, or whether Mr. Putin will seek to return to the presidency, investors cannot be certain whether the impetus to transform Moscow into an international financial centre will continue.
"The political will is there at the moment and this is very positive. We just need to see if the political will is there over time," says Alexander Branis, head of the corporate governance committee created as part of the Kremlin's international financial centre initiative.
Mr. Branis, who is also a fund manager at Prosperity Capital Management, says his committee started work only last December and many proposals are still under discussion.
One of the biggest challenges is deepening the pool of domestic cash available for investing in local capital markets, both by bringing back hundreds of billions of dollars stashed in bank accounts abroad by the country's tycoons, and by embarking on pension reform. This will be impossible without improvements in upholding the rule of law, analysts say.

Today, I want to put an opportunity in front of you. It's not a fortune-and-glory type of opportunity (he said, channeling Temple of Doom for some reason), but instead an opportunity to help somebody who needs some help.
My friend Trey Sterling -- you see him in the comments under the name "Xann Black" every so often -- recently underwent surgery to remove a malignant melanoma. The surgery was a success, and while there is still a course of treatment(s) waiting on him, Trey's progress seems to be quite good. This is because he's a badass. However, the illness and (more importantly) recovery time have caused him to have to face an extended period away from work. And I don't care how big a badass you are, bills are badder if they've teamed up with cancer to stop you from going to work for an extended period of time.
So here's the opportunity: to help. If you're reading this and have a few bucks you don't think you'll need this week, kindly visit Trey's Go Fund Me page and donate to this worthy cause.
Let me tell you a little bit about Trey. I've known him since ... oh, 2003ish. He was in high school, and got hired to work at the place where I was a manager. We got to be friendly, as often happens when nerds meet each other; and have been friends ever since. We've been on vacations together a few times over the years, have watched all manner of movies and TV shows together, and have had major influences on each others' reading habits.
With that in mind, if you've got the ability to send a few dollars, I'd like to ask you to consider sending them his way. He's a good guy, and his parents are good people, and the rest of his family are good people, and their various dogs and cats are good animals. They, none of 'em, ought to have to be going through any of this.
Now, for your amusement, here is a photo of Trey murdering a dinner roll at Disney World:
Good times.

Dubuque Fighting Saints vs Green Bay Gamblers
DUBUQUE, IA – After receiving a bronze medal in the World Junior Club Cup tournament held in Omsk, Russia the Saints took the ice in preseason action this past Sunday.
Back on US soil, the Saints took on their USHL East division rival the Green Bay Gamblers at the Mystique Community Ice Center.
The first period was filled with a lot of hard hitting and fast paced hockey, but it was also a little sloppy as no goals were scored. Jumping into the second period Green Bay switched their goalie with just over nine minutes remaining and the Fighting Saints took advantage. Right after the switch while the Gamblers were on the power play, Saints defensemen Jordan Klimek attempted to lob the puck from center ice down towards new goalie Cam Hackett. The shot happened to be on goal and took some funny bounces as it trickled past a confused Hackett.
Minutes later Max McHugh flew up the right side on an odd man rush and gave a beautiful cross ice pass to Shane Kavanagh who was able to put it in the back of the net and gave the Saints a 2-0 lead. With 1:06 remaining Shane Eiserman and Josh Betinol worked the puck to Joe Llaurado who beat Hackett with a terrific around the back shot between Hackett's legs and gave the Saints a 3-0 lead.
Early in the third period Seamus Malone pushed the puck from behind the net to Jeff Alderfer who was at the blue line and fired a slap shot and kept it close to the ice where it glanced off a Green Bay defender into the net beating Hackett once again. Shortly after the puck was rolling towards Hackett when he came flying out of the net to stop it before the Saints got to it for an odd man rush. Eiserman was able to beat Hackett to the puck and Josh Betinol followed Eiserman and put the loose puck into the wide open net.
Saints goalie Hayden Stewart played solid all game and allowed the Saints to explode on offense in the second and third. Stewart was working on a shutout until late in the third when Austin O'Neill came up the left boards and fired a wrist shot past Stewart with four minutes remaining but the Saints would win with the final score 5-1.
Talking to New Saints Head Coach Matt Shaw, he said he was happy with his team's performance, but acknowledged that the Saints should have played better than Green Bay after already playing five games in Russia. He said Stewart played a very strong game in net and made the tough saves early which allowed the offense time to warm up and take control of the game, that which they did, albeit with the assist from Hackett on some mistakes.
The Saints will continue preseason action at the USHL Fall Classic East in Indianapolis this Friday and open their regular season September 27th at Waterloo.

Tangled | DVD | (23/05/2011)
from £7.00 | Saving you £-0.01 (-0.10%) | RRP
Disney's 50th full-length animated feature film, Tangled is a visually appealing, music-filled adventure full of romance and humor. The film focuses on Rapunzel, a girl with long magical hair who's lived her entire life imprisoned in a tower by her greedy mother. Naturally optimistic and acquiescent, Rapunzel (Mandy Moore) rarely complains about her circumstances, but for her 18th birthday she longs to leave the tower to see the floating lights that appear every year on her birthday. Her mother (Donna Murphy) refuses her request, but when thief Flynn Ryder (Zachary Levi) climbs the tower to escape his pursuers, Rapunzel (once she's conked him on the head with a frying pan multiple times) impulsively decides to trust the young man and convinces him to help her escape to see the floating lights. Thus begins a journey that alternates quite schizophrenically between optimistic excitement and guilty remorse that will ultimately change Rapunzel's and Flynn's lives forever. Tangled is a masterful blend of humour, adventure, passion and drama combined with a great musical score and top-notch animation. The 3-D effects add to the experience but probably won't be missed in other formats. Best of all, Disney presents a princess who matures from a meek and compliant girl into a spunky young woman who's not afraid to pursue her dreams and risk it all for love--now that's a Disney princess worth emulating.

The Little Mermaid | DVD | (02/09/2013)
from £7.00 | Saving you £-0.01 (-0.10%) | RRP
From the moment that Prince Eric's ship emerged from the fog in the opening credits of The Little Mermaid in 1989 it was apparent that Disney had somehow, suddenly recaptured a "magic" that had been dormant for 30 years. In the tale of a headstrong young mermaid who yearns to "spend a day, warm on the sand", Ariel trades her voice to Ursula, the Sea Witch (classically voiced by Pat Carroll), for a pair of legs. Ariel can only succeed if she receives true love's kiss in a few day's time and she needs all the help she can from a singing crab named Sebastian, a loudmouth seagull and a flounder. The lyrics and music by song-writing team Howard Ashman and Alan Menken are top form: witty and relevant, and they advance the story (go on, hum a few bars of "Under the Sea"). Mermaid put animation back on the studio's "to do" list and was responsible for ushering 1991's Beauty and the Beast into cinemas. A modern Disney classic. --Keith Simanton

Central America: Regional Program for Environmental Governance and Resilience in the Gulf of Fonseca
The regional program fosters shared governance of natural resources to build resilience in the coastal communities of the Gulf of Fonseca. It contributes to the protection and sustainable use of the shared mangrove ecosystem of Nicaragua, Honduras and El Salvador. Switzerland sees this gulf region as a priority for its high levels of poverty and extreme vulnerability to climate change.

Numéro de projet
The regional program operates under two regional processes: the tripartite accord for the development of Gulf of Fonseca (GoF) between El Salvador, Honduras and Nicaragua and the updating of the 2018 -2022 Regional Climate Change Strategy (ERCC), led by the Central American Commission on Environment and Development (CCAD).
In 2017, the presidents of El Salvador, Honduras and Nicaragua signed an agreement to promote tri-national development in the GoF. With the support of the Central American Bank for Economic Integration (CABEI), a master plan for investment in large infrastructure projects to kick-start tourism and trade was formulated. This plan also has an environmental chapter under which Switzerland can support environmental stewardship and participation by the GoF communities, who are the most affected by climatic events.
CCAD requested SDC support for the implementation of the updated ERCC in the GoF. This is an opportunity to address livelihood problems that are shared by communities in the three countries. Key problems such as water pollution, environmental degradation and depletion of fisheries will be addressed by environmental governance, i.e. dialogue and consensus, and community-level environmental protection measures.
Mangrove conservation is not an end in itself but a means to address shared social and environmental problems. Due to their economic and environmental value, mangroves are key ecosystems for coastal communities. Public and private, local and municipal, and national and trinational interests intersect. Switzerland will work with stakeholders at the different levels through two components:
Regional policy and dialogue: Dialogue and tri-national agreement are promoted to align the ERCC with national policy priorities in the GoF. Institutions that contribute to resolving socio-environmental conflicts at different levels are strengthened. For this purpose, a contribution will be made to the CCAD.
Resilience and local governance: This component supports ERCC territorial implementation that aims to promote sustainable economic alternatives (artisanal fishing, ecotourism) and to protect and restore mangroves. The strengthening of local governance mechanisms with regard to natural resource management will enable the coastal communities to make their voices heard in the regional policy dialogue. A competitive fund is created to promote innovative conservation and economic sustainability initiatives with the participation of the private sector and the most vulnerable populations. This component will be tendered internationally.
This program will draw upon SDC's extensive experience and good reputation in natural resource management, DRR (disaster risk reduction), and participatory governance. The water governance and human rights programs in Honduras will serve as reference points.

Fooducopia in Wash Park debuts new restaurant
Tim Lymberopoulos started Fooducopia about seven years ago as an online organic grocery, and his concept just kept growing — first into a small market and cafe serving breakfast and lunch in the Washington Park neighborhood, and now into an upscale restaurant that serves dinner from chef Richard Glover, who's already won accolades for his brunch.
"The original idea was to be a little cafe and corner market," said Lymberopoulos, "but the restaurant side really took off and became the main attraction."
The space is completely redesigned. Now, instead of walking into the market, you walk into the restaurant, a cozy space that seats 32.
The market is tucked in a separate space, smaller, but still stocked with organic products sourced as locally as possible, and pasture-raised eggs collected daily from Glover's farm, Oatland Sage Farm & Farmyard, along with other small local egg farmers.
Other local artisans include Haystack Mountain Goat Dairy and Real Dill Pickles.
Fooducopia now has a liquor license, so diners can now imbibe with dinner. Entrees include High Point Farm bison filet ($36), Haugens Farm rack of lamb ($29) and Spring Tree Farms rabbit with organic root vegetables ($24).
1939 E. Kentucky Ave. 303-722-7838.

I wouldn't go as far as saying all inaccurate information comes with malicious intent. Sure, there's a few sites where I question everything, and it can be painfully obvious the author's intent is to pump the coins in their own portfolio. But sometimes, inaccurate rumors start from a 'trusted source' and an 'experienced reporter' who just isn't experienced when it comes to the cryptocurrency world - which can make sorting though the noise particularly difficult.
Even once a news outlet has proven themselves trustworthy, they're still not going to be able to cover every story as it happens - you're going to need multiple outlets to get a complete overview of what's happening.
That's where CoinSpectator comes in, a news aggregation service that takes the latest news from multiple trusted sources in real time, and puts those stories in one central news feed.
"As blockchain enthusiasts we were finding it very hard to monitor news and trends in industry. CoinSpectator was born out of this need." says CoinSpectator co-founder Andrew Sung.
When it comes to filtering out the fake news that can plague the cryptocurrency world, they take a two-step approach that combines their team, and their readers "We manually approve all resources that are added to the platform for monitoring. Resources are also weighted based on their following and trustworthiness in the community to further rank higher quality content. This helps keep the caliber of stories higher. As well as the above we also monitor and act on misinformation being spread in specific entries and remove them as they are reported/ investigated." says Sung.
The service is free and public, with no signup required. Check them out at https://coinspectator.com

"I've decided to try my hand at blogging, that being the Thing To Do these days. Who knows; Something Good may even come of it."
That's how I started blogging, on February 6, 2005, close enough to a decade of blogging to celebrate here with an anniversary+ post.
I started out on Blogger, because it was easy and that's about all there was at the time. I had been writing on chat groups and listserves since 1985, before "blogging" became part of the Internet lexicon. I'd authored my own web sites, joined in conversation on the Whole Earth 'Lectronic Link, The Well, which is still active, though it is no longer free. I was involved in a decade long conversation about Ed Abbey on the Abbeyweb, an early web site/discussion list about the author of The Monkey Wrench Gang and Desert Solitaire.
After ten years of blogging, and 671 posts as Hayduke Blogs, under the influence of the aforementioned Ed Abbey, I felt it was time for a change. On November 21, 2015, I shifted my blog to WordPress, and renamed it Words Arranged to encompass my other writing efforts.
Things are changing these days in the world of environmental activism. The word "environmentalist" seems to have tarnished a bit among the millennials, discredited by Big Green compromises to gain political power and influence, not to mention money. The concepts of bioregionalism and reinhabitory strategies have disappeared down the memory hole, "Global Warming" (sic) has taken over and subsumed all else as the be-all and end-all of "environmental" focus.
Over the past few months I've been reviewing the literature of the 60s and 70s, written by Peter Berg, Raymond Dassman, Aldo Leopold, Jerry Mander, Kirkpatrick Sale, Ernest Callenbach, David Brower, Ed Abbey, Dave Foreman, Howie Wolke, Murray Bookchin, and many others. I've found that everything necessary to understand conservation, ecology, bioregionalism and environmentalism was written by 1990, and after that, very little additional work on these subjects was published.
The confluence of Big Greens and "Global Warming" hysteria undoubtedly have much to do with the demise of environmentalism, in all its forms, in popular consciousness. Now with Johnny-Come-Latelies such as Michael Shellenberger and the "Breakthrough (sic) Institute" pimping for nukes and coal in the name of environmentalism, the concepts are further obfuscated.
What am I doing here? Why Words Arranged into sentences, paragraphs, blogs, comments and web sites?
In the past few years I've become increasingly disturbed with the human propensity to lay waste to the neighborhood, including the neighbors, human and non-. My orientation as an anthropologist, albeit an archaeologist, has heretofore proffered up excuses for human foibles, but lately historical analogies have paled in comparison to the very real and immediate idiocies foisted on the natural world by human growth and development.
As time grinds on, I'm feeling a greater urge to sing the song of the ultimate necessity for defense of the natural world, its habitats and resident species. There's not many of us left to carry the tune. David Brower is dead. Aldo Leopold is dead. John Muir and Ed Abbey are dead. And lately I haven't been feeling so well myself. (Apologies to Samuel Langhorne Clemens)
I realize I have fewer and fewer decisions left in my life and the pressure to make them count for something increases with each Natal Day. With book publishing thoroughly mired in the corporate feeding frenzy, the chances of publishing a physical book read by anyone other than my own family are slim to none. Blogging seems to be the only outlet capable of preserving the ideas and concepts I hold dear and presenting them to tender readers in a wider audience.
The Internet is a many-edged sword, fraught with meaningless distractions, rampant trivia, misinformation and outright lies. Nevertheless, it can be a singular avenue between my rapidly fossilizing brain and the much more impressionable cranial organs on the other side of this computer screen.
Environmentalism may not be what it used to be, but it will have to do until something better comes along.

Students should not send out unsolicited email to groups of more than 25 recipients unless it represents an official announcement from an approved student organization.
Use of Online Classified Advertisements
The University provides an online "classified ad" service for things like selling books or finding a ride home for the weekend. Students are asked to use this free service for all personal high-volume notices (more than 25 recipients). Students should avoid sending other types of unsolicited email to large groups unless it is an official notice related to a University event, program, or student organization.
Stewardship of Equipment and Supplies
Students are expected to treat all equipment with appropriate care. All repairs or modifications to University-owned equipment must be done by information technology staff. Students are not allowed to open the cases for any campus-owned computer. Food is not allowed in public computing labs. However, beverages in covered containers are permitted.
Students are also asked to be good stewards of all computer-related resources. Students are granted a generous print quota at the start of each semester for black and white laser printing. Laser printers are available in the Centennial Library, open-access computer labs, computer classrooms and CedarPrint stations. Multiple copies of papers, campaign signs, or announcements should be made on photocopy machines rather than on computer printers. Students should not remove supplies from the labs for their own private use.
Personally-Owned Computers and Devices
Each residence hall room is equipped with a port for connecting personally-owned computers to the University network. Complete guidelines for personally-owned computers and devices are available on the TechStop website. Following is a summary of the personally-owned computers and devices guidelines.
Minimum Software Requirements
Students should install current anti-virus software on any computer that will be attached to the campus network. (Cedarville University recommends Microsoft Security Essentials for student systems. A link to download the software is available on the TechStop website.) Personally-owned systems should also be patched with the most recent operating system updates (see windowsupdate.microsoft.com for Windows-based systems).
Support Issues
The TechStop website contains step-by-step instructions for the most common setup needs. If you experience error messages or suitable help is not available on the website, please submit an Information Technology request. Some fee-based troubleshooting and repair is available through Information Technology TechStop assistance. Network cables are available for purchase in the University bookstore.
Security Issues
Self provided switches are permitted; however, wired and/or wireless routers are not allowed. All devices attached to the network must meet Ethernet or Wi-Fi standards.
Some devices connected to the network must be registered. The owner of any device will be held responsible for all traffic passing through that device.
Reliability Issues
The University reserves the right to isolate or disconnect any device from the network that appears to be causing network problems or appears to be infected with malicious software (e.g., a virus).
The University reserves the right to analyze network traffic from any or all devices connected to the network. Any sensitive information should only be shared through a secure connection.
The University reserves the right to prohibit devices that cause interference with wireless networking equipment.
Legal Issues
Logging onto CedarNet using a Novell Netware Client is prohibited on computers not provided by the University. Only the computers owned by Cedarville University may legally access commercial software available on CedarNet. Do not connect to CedarNet using a Netware Client on your personal device. You may access your H: drive by following the instructions on the "H:/J:/S:/T: Drive Access" section of the computer help website.
Some software available on the "Downloads" page of the TechStop website is only legal for installation on computers owned by students, faculty, or staff of Cedarville University. Sharing these programs with those outside the University family is illegal.
The University will not be held responsible for damage to devices owned by individuals in the event of power surges or other electrical issues. It is the responsibility of the individual student to provide adequate surge protection for his or her devices.
Penalties for Computer Violations
- unauthorized copying, transferring, or allowing or facilitating the transfer of copyrighted material
- unauthorized attempts to access or browse data, files, or directories that belong to the University or others
- unauthorized use of another person's account
- interfering with someone else's legitimate computer use by corrupting files or introducing deviant software such as worms or viruses
- possession of programs designed to gain unauthorized access or steal passwords
- accessing, possessing, or distributing pornographic or obscene material (this includes establishing links to webpages of this nature)
Immediate Dismissal
- breaking or attempting to break computer security
- unauthorized attempts to access or browse data, files, or directories that belong to the University or others
- unauthorized use of another person's account
- unauthorized alteration of any electronic data or information files

Altering the look of a fireside entails extra planning than most people realize. Adding worth to your house, a modernized fireplace will not be an eyesore you attempt to disguise but a design characteristic you might be proud to indicate-off. The design pro and blogger reworked her darkish and dated hearth into one thing shiny and delightful by whitewashing the brick.
Henry says a quick and simple answer is to simply wrap the brick in either tile or wood, leaving the exposed brick for the firebox. Best time of 12 months to do this challenge: This is a 12 months-spherical challenge, however if you're contemplating adding hardwood to a room or doing something to the partitions, together with painting, it is best to do the hearth first.
Hearth restoration usually includes interior and exterior parts akin to: Stone and brick cleaning, tile cleansing, mortar repointing, damper set up and extra. After all the cement work, we put in cultured stone, a small tiled floor just under the range, and we tore out carpet and installed ceramic stone tile that appears similar to barn-wooden slats.
As mentioned earlier, the cost of transforming a hearth will depend upon the size of the undertaking and whether or not you select to handle it yourself or rent a mason Different components can increase or decrease the worth of a hearth transform. We added new insulation, drywall, radiant-heated ground, ceramic tile, electrical and fireplace insert.
For those who notice crumbling bricks either inside the fireside or across the chimney, fire repairs will be mandatory. I removed the tile surround and drywall. Replacing a fireplace will be expensive, but merely updating an present hearth can be reasonably priced.

I want to let you in on a little secret. Ready? I am the WORST, absolute worst at meal prepping. It is a non-existent lifestyle in my book, but everyone and their mother on Instagram seem to be meal-prepping royalty. Have you seen this new trend about organized refrigerators? I've seen a whole bunch of "meal prep fridges" on social media and, I swear, if organized refrigerators become a trend I'm giving up on all things because no way can I compete with that kind of level of house care.
Back to my original thought; meal prepping is an art in itself. Although It's not my particular medium, I am surrounded by it. I asked a lot of my meal-prepping friends how they accomplish such an adult like task. Time is a real set back for me on this whole concept. I lack to prep healthy meals, so throughout the week, I'm constantly trying to figure out what I want to consume. Here's what I found out about how to make healthy lunches (and other meals) quickly.
Cook like you are coking for a reunionOne of the best hacks for making healthy food is also one of the most straightforward - cook in bulk. When you have the time to cook, don't make one meal, make time to prepare a larger batch and cook in bulk. That way, you can portion your large batch of whatever you've made up, and you have healthy meals in the fridge or freezer. Whether you're making a salad, pasta, or even a roast, you can quickly bulk cook and make extra for the week's lunches.
Get yourself an AirfryerTake advantage of this kitchen appliance the gods have blessed us with. If you're lucky enough to have an Airfryer, it's essential that you take the time to use it. They are an ideal way to make (healthy) food quickly considering you don't need any oil or butter. Don't have an Airfryer? Now could be the perfect time to invest in one of these fantastic machines. You can make anything and everything in them, from tempura cauliflower to meatball sliders.
Fish are friends and foodIf you fancy making yourself a fresh lunch that's quick, easy and healthy, fish is a great option. This is because most fish cooks relatively quickly, and goes with a range of healthy sides, like salad, veggies, and noodles. Plus, you can cook fish in a plethora of kitchenware. Try a copper skillet, a George Foreman or a BBQ grill, and it cooks within a few minutes. I found this source helpful when picking my copper skillets. Throw some olive oil, salt, pepper, lemon juice, and chili onto your tuna or salmon, and it will taste amazing.
Swap pasta for rice and veggiesA new trend has been sweeping the country of swapping carbs like pasta and rice for vegetable alternatives. Spaghetti squash, say what? Instead of having pasta with your lunch zucchini spirals are just as filling. Instead of having rice, perhaps you could have cauliflower rice? They taste the same if you ask me. Cutting carbs? Try sweet potato bread instead. There are so many options available to choose from.
Take advantage of these on your busy days to feel like you have your life together. One small step for me, one giant leap for meal-preppers everywhere.

How to create a great business plan, in a few easy steps!
"A dream will always be a dream, without a plan."
Elaina Mitchell
CEO & Founder of E. Mitchell Designs
There's an amazing business idea brewing in your head, and you haven't taken the jump to make it happen…just yet. I'm here to remind you that starting a business is HARD WORK, but worth every bit of blood, sweat and tears you'll pour into it! Starting a business is your chance to show the world what you're passionate about, and make a living (or a lot more) doing it!
If you're serious about starting a profitable and successful business you'll need to create a business plan…and we're here to help!
Having a business plan will help you land investors and paint a clear picture towards the path to success for your new business.
We're going to go over a few easy steps to creating a business plan. Now, I say "easy" because I'm going to explain these steps in a super simple way…but, let's not get used to putting the words "business" and "easy" together in the same sentence.
Ready to get started?
So, you might be wondering…what exactly is a business plan, and what should it include?
SBA.gov recommends that a business plan include:
There you have it. Now you know exactly what a business plan is, and what to include when creating yours.
Now that we have that out of the way…I'm curious, are you a coffee drinker?…
You might want to grab a big cup right about now, because we're about to dive deep into the important steps to developing a killer business plan, and I'm going to need your full attention, because this is what success is made of. I'm ready, if you are!
#1 Set your foundation | Establish a purpose
Studies show that people want to get "behind" a business rather than just buy their product or services. So, let the world know what your ultimate purpose is as a business or brand.
New Report Reveals 86% of US Consumers Expect Companies to Act on Social, Environmental Issues
(The 2017 Cone Communications CSR Study)
When setting a foundation for your new business or brand, ask yourself the following questions:
Answering these questions first will not only help you identify the purpose behind your new business or brand, but it will also give you a head-start on developing a strong mission statement in the near future.
Your purpose is essentially your foundation as a business or brand. Everything you build for your business or brand, based off of that foundation, will be a lot stronger because you took the time to establish it from the beginning.
Once you finish developing your new business plan, you'll want to start exploring branding options. Knowing your purpose (your foundation) will also help during this process and be a vital piece to a strong and successful branded business image. You'll also have a better understanding of what markets to target when developing a marketing plan for your business plan.
"Identifying a purpose is vital to understanding your role as a business and business owner."
#2 Research! And then, research some more!
If you're going to do business, you should know absolutely everything about that business. Your goal should be to be able to answer ANY question that may come your way regarding your business, product or brand.
Of course…there are some things that you have to learn with time and experience.
Some important things you can, and should, research are:
#3 Create a company profile
Your company profile will be a summary of your business, and it's "identity" to the public. The first two steps above were the foundation to this step. Some information to be found in your company profile are:
#4 Keep records | Document everything
As a business owner, learning how to properly document, and organize information, data, etc. is vital! From the very beginning of your business journey, you should keep records of the following information:
Learning to keep track of this important information from the very beginning of your business ventures is so important!
This step will help you create the Management and Organizational sections of your new business plan. This step will also help you finalize your Financial Projections and Funding Request sections of your new business plan.
See? You're already steps ahead of most with "business dreams", because you're actually taking those dreams and making a plan…and we're really proud of you for that move.
Just a few more steps and you'll have a brand new Business Plan to show off to potential investors and even friends and family! Let's finish this up…
#5 Make a major marketing plan
Because you took the time to cover the first four steps to creating a successful business plan, this next step won't be too hard.
It's time to think about what demographics and areas you're going to target when you decide to start marketing your new business, brand or product. This group of people will be considered your "Target Market".
Target Market: a particular group of consumers at which a product or service is aimed. (via Google Dictionary)
Once you figure out your target market, you can begin to construct a killer marketing plan. Some important things to consider when creating a marketing plan are:
#6 Explain WHY you care
The "why" behind your ambition to make this business idea a reality is such a powerful tool to use in not only your business plan, but all of your future efforts. Never forget your "why"!
Not sure of your "why"? Ask yourself the following questions:
Maybe you have yet to really think about your purpose or reason behind your business venture. Now is the time to dig deep and find that fire behind this "idea". WHY is it going to be successful?
The answer to the above questions are going to be your fire. That fire is going to keep you warm when this business life gets cold and lonely (and it will). Never let that fire die.
#7 Stay focused!
The last, and probably the most important, step to creating a killer business plan, is to STAY FOCUSED! Your success depends on it.
All of the components of a business plan might seem a little overwhelming at first glance…but I challenge you to dive in and stay focused on the bigger picture. Completing this first step to creating a business, by outlining a business plan, is going to help shape you into the business owner you were born to be.
I'm excited for you!
Now, go after those dreams!

Jamaica could meet global demand for its ginger by 2019
LOCAL farmers could meet the global demand for Jamaican ginger by 2019, according to the Agriculture Ministry.
Ginger output is on target to near-double this year should the 320 hectares (790 acres) under production yield the expected 3,000 metric tons (tonnes).
That's more than five times the 460 tonnes produced in 2009. But the long-term demand for Jamaican ginger globally is estimated to be 21,000 tonnes, or five per cent of total world demand for the root.
Meeting demand will require another 1,460 hectares to be put into production.
"Once the farmers continue to embrace the best practices, and there is sufficient buy-in from the market," the country could meet that demand "in five years", said Byron Henry, general manager of the Export Division at the Ministry of Agriculture.
To make that happen the Agriculture Ministry has launched a number of initiatives aimed at helping farmers with technical, financial and market support, by offering training, interest-free loans and by purchasing the product at the end of the crop.
During 2013 alone, the ministry increased its financial contribution to the industry from $31 million in 2012 to $114 million, of which $40 million was provided to 502 farmers as interest-free loan to cultivate 445 hectares of ginger.
Jamaica's ginger production fell to an all-time low in the early 1990s, having been impacted by the rhizome rot and bacterial wilt diseases, which effectively rendered the country as a net importer of the product.
Now, Jamaica exports around 20 tonnes more than it imports.
A number of local importers of ginger have opted to use the local product, as a result in the upturn in production.
Henry said that it is now more economically feasible to use local ginger than imported ginger. For instance, importing the powder cost over $1,000 per kilogram, while locally produced ginger powder currently cost about $813 per kg.

As your dog grows older and becomes prone to such conditions as arthritis and obesity, you will need to watch his diet. There is high-quality dog food that will help, but a cheaper and perhaps better way is to feed your dog is with your own specially made dishes.
Take your dog to the vet for an assessment. Only when you know what is wrong with him or what illness he is prone to can you feed him the right diet.
Give your dog small amounts of fruit and vegetables and fiber such as wheat bran to help with constipation. There are a few vegetables and fruits that are harmful for dogs including avocado, onions, garlic, grapes and raisins. Fruit and vegetables your dog will love and can eat include bananas, pears, carrots and spinach.
Add nutritional supplements to your dog's homemade food. These can be bought at your local pet feeding store or from your vet. Vitamin E, beta-carotene and omega-6 fatty acids will help to maintain your dog's immune system. Glucosamine chondroitin is good for those dogs prone to or suffering from arthritis. Omega-6 fatty acids can also be found in poultry fat, canola, sunflower oil and whole grains. Vitamin E can be found in dry apricots, sunflower seeds and corn. Squash, carrots and sweet potatoes all contain beta-carotene.
Feed dogs with kidney problems a high-protein diet, which can include eggs, beef, bread and rice. One recipe consists of cooked white rice, a large boiled egg, minced beef cooked well in sunflower oil and bread cooked lightly in sunflower oil. These ingredients should be mixed together in a bowl and served immediately to your dog.
Items you will need
- Dog nutrition supplements
- Fruit
- Vegetables
- Cut out treats from your elderly dog's diet, particularly if he is suffering from obesity. Remember, he cannot exercise and burn off the calories like he used to.

Threading is an all natural, gentle method of accurately removing unwanted hair for people of all skin types, especially for those with sensative skin. It can be performed on any area of the face including the eyebrows, the upper lip, chin & side burns. Some people also like to have the hair on their hands and fingers threaded. This method of hair removal is considered to be less painful, more precise and longer lasting than waxing.
We specialize in eyebrow design and take special care in creating arches that are just right for you. We see threading as an art and not just a process of quickly removing facial hair, therefore we take time with each client in order to give you the best service and results that cater to your needs.
History of Eyebrow Threading
The history of threading is not clear, some claim that it began in Turkey and the others say it is from India, spread to the Middle and Far East. Now it is becoming popular in Western countries such as USA, Spain, UK, Brazil and Canada. In Arabic language it is called khite. In Arab countries, both men and women use this method, although the men usually just do their eyebrows with thread.
It is also popular in Persian(Iranian) culture where it is called Bande Abru ("Abru" means eyebrow and "Band" is the thread). Threading the entire face is widely spread among Iranians, but it was originally practiced when a woman was getting married or during special occasions.
In ancient Persia, threading was a sign that a girl had reached adulthood and become a woman. But nowadays all the women and girls like to do that. Threading is one of the essential in their skin care and beauty.
