By Michael Ramirez, Investor's Business Daily
To understand why President Obama surrounded himself with a human shield of children last week as he ordered a tightening of our nation's gun controls, you have to remember this is an administration that never lets a "crisis" go to waste. Nor does it resist the use of a superficial prop to divert attention from serious deliberation.
It also has a history of claiming urgency to pass solutions based on misinformation without careful reflection.
That anyone would use children in such an overtly political manner or hijack a tragedy like Sandy Hook to further their political aims is repulsive in itself. But also remember this an administration that knowingly walked hundreds of semi-automatic weapons and rifles across the Mexican border with little regard for the resulting slaughter of innocent people or the death of a U.S. Border Patrol agent.
This is also a president who has no problem leaving our children a huge burden of debt and a lower quality of life, thanks to his unrestrained and irresponsible fiscal management.
Some surmise the primary motivation of Fast and Furious, the Mexican gun-walking operation, was to make a political case for gun control by selling the weapons to criminals.
Now, the administration has found another way to restrict the sale of weapons and ammunition — not to criminals, but to honest citizens.
Never mind that Connecticut already has an assault weapons ban, that the state lists possession of such firearms as a class D felony or that there's probably nothing, short of confiscating all guns or providing armed security at all schools, that could have prevented the tragedy at Newtown, Conn.
At last count there were more than 310 million guns in the U.S., and a 2008 court ruling (District of Columbia vs. Heller) reaffirmed our Second Amendment rights. So guns aren't going away, and Heller would add still more.
Placing armed marshals in schools the way armed marshals are placed in airlines may not be a bad idea. But it should be done at the local level and measured first for effectiveness and cost efficiency.
The efficacy of these programs would vary from community to community, which is why the Constitution leaves these and other issues like them to the jurisdiction of the states and localities, not the federal government. These issues need to be carefully considered rather than reacted to or passed based on the passion of the moment.

Las Vegas is famous for many things: The casinos, obviously, plus Elvis, the Rat Pack, and all-you-can-eat buffets.
But the city is also famous for its neon. Whether it's the nostalgic, campy signage of days gone by or the multimedia light shows of modern day, Vegas has always been big on the bright and bold.
The famous Golden Nugget is a perfect example. Located adjacent to the Fremont Street experience, itself a dazzling display of light and sound, the hotel welcomes guests with glittering lights galore.
We thought it would be fun to dig up some classic neon (and otherwise) signage from across the country. Here are a few highlights worth checking out!
Clockwise from top left:
- Pepsi-Cola sign, Queens, NY
- Radio City Music Hall, New York City, NY
- The Chicago Theater, Chicago, IL
- Santa Monica Pier, Santa Monica, CA
- Pike Place Market, Seattle, WA
- Citgo sign, Boston, MA

Unreliable, dead after 3 weeks.Pros: It worked well when it was working. Cons: The player no longer recognizes the DVD's after about three weeks of use. Other Thoughts: Spindle no longer turns DVD, everything else appears to be functioning. Did you find this review helpful? |
JunquePros: Always relied on the Toshiba name and rep in times past. Not any more. Cons: The problem arose with wi fi. Suddenly, the unit would not connect with either of my routers. Toshiba support (Sigourney) took me through the steps I had already covered numerous times, which ended in a failed connection each time. Can't fault her or the script. After several tries, she politely told me there was no more she could do. The unit had passed the 90-day warranty period. Looking around the net, those who complained about product worthiness largely cited wifi malfunctions as the main problem. Some lost wifi function after much shorter periods. That indicates a product defect. Other Thoughts: There is little I can do in this case. Product has shown other signs of breakdown; non-response to remote, needing to be unplugged to turn off, etc. I will use it as long as it works, for whatever function remains. The main lesson is not to buy anything which carries a warranty so short as to indicate a manufacturer's lack of confidence in the product or greed in the form of an "extended" warranty. Best I can do here is to move Toshiba from the "Preferred" column to the "Buyer Beware" column. Did you find this review helpful? |
Awesome!Pros: Easy! This device is plug and play. Well thought out design. I had read previous reviews here before I purchased it stating issues using the WIFI, but I had no issues at all. The device found my netgear router right away and I was watching online movies within minutes. Cons: none Did you find this review helpful? |
Nice Blu-ray playerPros: Easy to setup, on-screen menus easy to navigate. Very nice picture. Cons: None. Other Thoughts: I would recommend this to anyone wanting a very nice 3d Blu-ray player. Did you find this review helpful? |
Best Yet !Pros: Interface, Netflix connection speed, picture, sound and sleek look. Blu-Ray is top notch. Cons: None Other Thoughts: This is the best Network Blu-Ray player I've owned. After my first one, I bought another. I also have 2 S%ny BR's. I hope to sell them soon! Did you find this review helpful? |
Horrible! Stay away!Pros: Suppose to be a 3D device, good price, offers wifi and a wired connection. Trusted name...maybe. Cons: Wifi died on me just after Toshiba's 90 day warranty, they are refusing to replace. Will freeze quite often. Doesn't shut off when you tell it to. Make sure the outlet is close because you will have to unplug it to shut it off quite often. Other Thoughts: I spent $107 on this unit thinking it would be a great buy, especially since it is advertised as a 3D BD player. I don't own a 3D TV yet but figured the investment in this player would be worth it when I do upgrade eventually. As stated above the wifi died after a firmware upgrade. I called Toshiba and since my device was just out of the 90 day warranty, they wouldn't touch it. 3 months in and I have a blue ray player that won't connect to wifi. If you only play Blue Ray movies on this device, then you should be okay. But, a company that pushes an update that bricks your wifi and then REFUSES to make it right because 90 days has elapsed, hmm....I think I'll be buying a different brand. Beware of this player, don't go cheap and buy this and definitely don't take comfort in a "trusted brand" such as Toshiba. So after 3 calls to Toshiba and getting hung up on and yelled at by "customer service" I'm calling it a night....and never buying another Toshiba brand again, I'd advise all of you to do the same. 0 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
faultyPros: had not any problems playing discs Cons: Internet died connection died after two days and will not connect. It freezes up when turning off. 0 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
EggcellentPros: Perfect picture, Dolby sound, wireless Netflix and others. My unit performs exactly as it should! Set-up took 15 mins. for entire unit including wireless handshake. Blu-Ray movies and Netflix are awesome! I'm going to order another for the bedroom. Cons: None so far. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Buyer Beware!Pros: ? Cons: Began to die shortly after setup. Other reviews also indicate that the unit is freezing. I tried to do a firmware upgrade, hoping it would fix the problem. No luck. It never got that far before it locked up. Other Thoughts: I'm one of those folks that has strong brand loyalty. I bought a Toshiba LED and soundbar, and wanted a Toshiba blu ray player. But since this seems to be their top of the line model, I had to break ranks and get another brand. 0 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

SNL's Paul Rudd Episode: 5 Best Scenes
The Sound of Music, One Direction's #1 fan, cameos by Kristin Wiig, Will Ferrell, Fred Armisen, and Steve Carell... More »
Sage Stossel is a contributing editor at The Atlantic and draws the cartoon feature "Sage, Ink." She is author/illustrator of the graphic novel Starling, and of the children's books On the Loose in Boston and On the Loose in Washington, DC. More
On Election Day in 1996, TheAtlantic.com launched a weekly editorial cartoon feature drawn by Sage Stossel and named (aptly enough) "Sage, Ink." Since then, Stossel's whimsical work has been featured by the New York Times Week in Review, CNN Headline News, Cartoon Arts International/The New York Times Syndicate, The Boston Globe, Nieman Reports, Editorial Humor, The Provincetown Banner (for which she received a 2009 New England Press Association Award), and elsewhere. Her work has also been included in Best Editorial Cartoons of the Year, (2005, 2006, 2009, and 2010 editions) and Attack of the Political Cartoonists. Her children's book, On the Loose in Boston, was published in June 2009.
Sage Stossel grew up in a suburb of Boston and attended Harvard University, where she majored in English and American Literature and Languages and did a weekly cartoon strip about college life, called "Jody," for the Harvard Crimson. From 2004 to 2007, she served as Books Editor of the Radcliffe Quarterly
After college she took what was intended to be a temporary summer position securing electronic rights to articles from The Atlantic's archive for use online. Intrigued by The Atlantic's rich history and the creative possibilities in helping to launch a digital edition of the magazine on the Web, she soon joined The Atlantic full time. As the site's former executive editor, she was involved in everything from contributing reviews, author interviews, and illustrations, to hosting message boards and producing a digital edition of The Atlantic for the Web.
Stossel lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

Cedar Cycling - Interview Submitted by David on Tue, 01/29/2013 - 09:48 News Item: Hot TopicCycling Product Reviews Recently 303Cycling caught up with new cycling clothing manufacture Cedar Cycling. They are based in California and design and make USA-made technical apparel. One of their first products, the Standard Jersey, is half nylon and half merino wool. [303Cycling] Give me some background on Cedar Cycling?[Cedar Cycling] We're both longtime cyclists, and we wanted a tough-as-nails, well-fitting merino-wool based jersey that was US-made. We felt there was room for improvement on the existing merino-based jerseys on the market. We worked directly with our fabric mill to develop a custom double-knit fabric with a merino inner layer and a synthetic outer layer. We found the rest of the trims in Italy, Japan and the US. Everything is sewn right in the Bay Area, at highly skilled sewing factories that have been making technical outdoor gear for decades. [303Cycling] How did the American made focus come about for both Cedar Cycling and your store Standard and Strange?[Cedar Cycling] At Cedar, we didn't really feel like we had a choice. We lucked into living in an area that has some of the best riding in the US, and it happens to also have a long legacy of outdoors manufacturing. In fact, the outdoor industry as we know it started here in the 1930s. Coupled with the desire to keep our money local, and the high risks of working offshore, it was a no-brainer to stay in the US.

Club Ride Cross-Wind Jacket & Rale Jeans Review Submitted by Cheri Felix on Thu, 12/06/2012 - 06:31 News Item: World Cycling NewsCycling Product ReviewsJust for WomenI remember when I had one skort to wear and one pair of shorts that I bought on sale. The shorts were a perfect fit. Except when I had to take them off. And then I had to wiggle them over my hips. 13 years ago I feel like there weren't many choices for women when it came to buying bike clothes. Well those days are over and Club Ride is a big part of what makes it so fun to get dressed to ride your bike. I recently tested the Club Ride Rale Jeans and the Cross-Wind Jacket. Now if you're like me if you hear the word "jeans" and mountain biking well those two don't quite seem to go together. Read more about Club Ride Cross-Wind Jacket & Rale Jeans ReviewAdd new comment
SOAS Triathlon & Endurance Sports Clothing: I Heart this Lycra! Submitted by Cheri Felix on Tue, 11/27/2012 - 20:35 News Item: World Cycling NewsCycling Product ReviewsJust for WomenFrom Staff Writer, Cheri Felix Full disclaimer: I don't run or swim or ride a road bike or do triathlons. This is what I told the people from SOAS when they asked me to review their Red Houndstooth Tri Kit. "But I'll ride my mountain bike and go to spin class and for good measure, I'll run into spin class, "I added to my pitch. So they sent me what at first glance were a pair of lycra shorts and a cute matching tank. At second glance, it might be some of the most comfortable lycra I've ever worn. If you've read my other reviews of clothing you know I am a mountain biker. Baggies all the way. The more disheveled the look the better so I was a bit skeptical. Until I put on the shorts. I think they are the cutest lycra shorts I've ever seen. And dare I say I think I look really good them. They are super comfortable. The stylistic touches are spot on. The houndstooth design on the perfectly crafted waist band is cute. The just wide enough waist band is comfortable in that holds in any bit of blubber you might have kind of way. Although I am sure you don't have any. There are three just the right size built in pockets on the back that are great for holding your locker key, your $5 bucks for coffee and your gel. The chamois is slight as I suspect is preferable for triathletes since the bike is just one of the three events. It's soft and cozy in all the right spots and perfect for spin, running indoors and yes, I did wear them while out for a mountain bike ride. They also worked perfectly for weight lifting before spin class. Which is not super fun when you wear cycling shorts that have a big maxi pad for a chamois.

Review: Grindz - Pants with Hidden Protective Padding Submitted by Amy Thompson on Sun, 11/18/2012 - 21:39 News Item: Cycling Product ReviewsLast year we were super excited to meet bmx pro Kevin Robinson at Interbike and see his innovative new product called Grindz out of Colorado, pants with built-in padding for biking and skate boarding. Unfortunately, we had to wait a year for the product to be out on the market, but we are happy to report that Grindz launched this fall, just in time for the holidays. Grindz were invented by Kevin so there would be no excuses to not wear protective padding, "The most important aspect of freestyle bmx and my career has always been safety. I would have never been able to earn 5 X-Games gold medals, or my World Height Record without wearing all the proper safety gear. It disappoints me when I don't see others taking safety seriously and always making excuses to not wear pads. Well, the excuses are over. I introduce to you - Grindz."

Got Raw Balls? Maybe you should! Submitted by Amy Thompson on Tue, 10/02/2012 - 14:53 News Item: Hot TopicCycling Product ReviewsProduct Review - Simply Dara's Raw Balls are an excellent all natural, vegan, gluten free, organic and "raw food" snack for cyclists. Nutrition has been a hot topic in the cycling community lately and there seems to be a trend towards "real foods", think Allen Lim and the Feed Zone Cookbook. There also seems to be more and more cyclists going vegan or gluten free. In that vain, we've noticed a new product out of Boulder, Simply Dara's Raw Balls, that seems to fit right in with this trend, so we thought we'd give them a try. Read more about Got Raw Balls?

You may have heard about the cycle of freedom. Frases Tytler said that a democracy can't exist as a permanent form of government. What eventually happens is people discover they can vote for their own largess from the treasury. We then vote in people that give us more and the loose fiscal policy leads to collapse and a dictatorship. The cycle goes from bondage, to spiritual faith, then to great courage, liberty and abundance, then to selfishness, complacency, apathy, dependence and then bondage. Tytler believed a democracy could not last longer than 200 years (we have that beaten by 31 years). Where do you think we are in the cycle? Our forefathers fought so that they could have freedom. We seem too willing to give up our freedom to be taken care of. I found a quote from a slave owner justifying slavery.
"I have also looked into the working conditions of free laborers in the North. You will not be surprised when I say that our Negroes live better than most factory workers. Does anyone lookout for the poor worker whose arm is permanently damaged? No. Does anyone see that workers are properly fed and housed?"
Many of slave owners went so far as to advocate for universal slavery. They believed that the "superior" slave owners would provide a better organized system where everyone would have jobs, be provided food, clothing, housing and cared for if they were sick or infirm. Is this much different than socialism? This has been replicated in the USSR, China, and Cuba. Europe has reached dependence in the Cycle of Freedom and I believe we are not far behind. It's time to break the cycle.
Wow, talk about being on the same wave length. My cmtoenms today were on Revelation 18th chapter, where it speaks of the demise of that great city that reigns over the nations of the earth Babylon the Great is fallen, is fallen and become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. Calling us out from her my people, be not partakers with her of her sins & plagues Symbolic of the Roman Empire's demise, after 250 years of Democratic Republic rule sliding into the empire and it's abuses and persecution of Christians in the first century. The similarities between Rome & the US including the emblem (eagle) How they cried out for her demise, no man buys her merchandise anymore. In one hour her great riches are come to nought. How our economy is also failing due to changes in the Constitution and apathy of the people. Finally, the blood of the prophets and saints slain in her, this is yet to be realized here yet! verse 24

The music video for "Thirty-Three", directed both by Billy Corgan and girlfriend Yelena Yemchuk, is a series of images shot in stop-motion. The whole video was created with images closely related to the amazing lyrics, as an intentional stylistic departure. So, to illustrate the video I repeated the formula, using photos and elements of the clip to to represent my favorite parts of the video and music.

Chris O'Prey (forum user name: cjoprey)
I'm a self-confessed geek who has been a developer for longer than I care to remember (let's just say I remember writing BASIC in the 70s). In my latest guise as a developer and tester at Microsoft, I am a heavy user of Windows PowerShell for automation of testing, build, and integration. I use Windows PowerShell on a daily basis, and I have no intention of weaning myself off it!
Travis Page (forum user name: pagerwho)
I have been in IT for about 7 years now, the past year has been primarily focused on scripting in Windows PowerShell. I utilize Windows PowerShell quite a bit to help me in my routine tasks, and have come to be known at my employer as the scripting guy. In my current role I work with Exchange, Active Directory, Server systems and Desktops and have been working to develop scripts to assist me in troubleshooting faster, and fix problems faster with Windows PowerShell. I am active in PASS at the local level and can be reached on Twitter via http://twitter.com/pagerwho or on LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/travispage
Thiyagarajan Parthiban (forum user name: Thiyagu14)
I work for a large Investment Bank, as a Exchange Administrator. I have been scripting for more than 7 years now. I am good at VBscript, but when I first laid my eyes on Powershell, I realized this is the coolest thing ever in scripting. I automate Exchange/AD tasks, am also good at WMI, ADSI and generating reports. I blog at www.myExchangeWorld.com . I have developed custom apps in C# for automation. I love to automate things. Scripting and Exchange Server is really my passion.
Jason Premo (forum user name: LikeToCode)
I have been in IT for 12 years. I started with installing and troubleshooting radio and data transmission networks for the government, and then I moved into the private sector as a lead IT project engineer, which is when I was first exposed to VBScript. To me, it was the coolest thing since sliced bread. Now I use VBScript, VB.NET, AutoIT, HTAs, and ORCA to engineer enterprise software deployments and manage Active Directory.
Rich Prescott (forum user name: Rich Prescott)
I am currently working as an Infrastructure Architect/Windows Engineer at a large media company, with my main areas of focus being automation and Active Directory. The automation responsibilities allow me to work with a wide-range of technologies including virtualization, storage and monitoring. I started learning PowerShell in 2009 while working as a Desktop Engineer and am the lead scripting guy for my organization.

Twitter: @Rich_PrescottBoe Prox (forum user name: Boe Prox)
I have been working as an IT Pro since 2003 as Senior Windows System Administrator and started into scripting with VBscript in early 2008. I then started getting into Windows PowerShell in early 2009 and haven't stopped using it since. I use Windows PowerShell on a daily basis at work for automation, reporting and anything else I can think of. My main focus areas are in ADSI and WMI and I am also learning more about .NET to further my Windows PowerShell experience. One of my favorite things about Windows PowerShell no matter what you know, you will always learn something new. My blog is at http://learn-powershell.net
Mark Schill (forum user name: Meson3902)
I live in Atlanta, Georgia, where I work as a contractor for the federal government. I began scripting with VBScript in 1999 and now work exclusively with Windows PowerShell. My current areas of specialization are automated Windows system builds and Citrix environments. VMWare is also of major interest to me. I work in development on a part-time basis and this has provided ease within the .NET Framework. I also serve as a resident advisor on the #PowerShell IRC channel on freenode.net. You can find me on my blog: http://www.cmschill.net/stringtheory .
Andy Schneider (forum user name: Andy Schneider)
I am a systems engineer at Avanade, Inc. I am on Avanade's Internal IT team that works with Compute Utility and Storage infrastructure. I've been a professional in the IT industry since 1999. I remember the first time I started playing with VBScript. I ran into by boss's office exclaiming "Holy Schnikees! Look what we can do with this stuff!" Seeing what I could do with automation, my view of IT changed forever. Now I am pretty much a pure Windows PowerShell fanatic. Windows PowerShell has provided me with a fairly smooth glide path into the world of development with .NET and C#. I'm not a developer, but I have a strong passion for bridging the world of development and systems engineering together by being able to interface with developers and other systems engineers. Learning Windows PowerShell has really given me the tools I need to become more educated about the world of development. You can find my blog at http://get-powershell.com/.

Brandon Shell (forum user name: BSonPosh)
I have been in the IT industry since 1994. I spent the early years as a PC tech and general fix-it guy for numerous companies. I started a consulting company in 1999 to build, design, and support networks and Windows infrastructure. I offered Microsoft training as well. In 2000 I joined Microsoft as contractor for the Directory Services team (the first of several times). I joined Microsoft in 2002 as a full-time rapid response field engineer doing mostly Directory Service support for companies in the northeast. In 2004 the onsite travel requirement became too much, and I left for a finance firm where I am today.
Blog: www.bsonposh.com.Bhargav Shukla (forum user name: Bhargav Shukla - MSFT)
My name is Bhargav Shukla, and I am a premier field engineer (PFE) at Microsoft. Computers always fascinated me. By education I am a civil engineer but my passion for IT lead my way and I became what I am today. As a PFE, I represent Microsoft and provide dedicated support to enterprise customers.
In my 14 years of IT experience, I have had the opportunity to work on many technologies including messaging, Directory Services, information security, virtualization, and others. As I progressed through my career stages, I also earned industry certifications from Microsoft, VMware, RSA and Citrix. When not working with Enterprise clients, I am leading Exchange User Group in the Philadelphia area, contributing to TechNet forums, and reviewing books. I am one of the reviewers of Roberta Bragg's Windows Server 2003: A Technical Reference. I also help Clint Huffman on his open source tool Performance Analysis of Logs (PAL) when time permits. Besides my passion for IT and messaging, I love playing chess. You can find me on the Free Internet Chess Server; my handle is "bhargavs".
Glenn Sizemore (forum user name: glnsize)
I have been in IT for the last 8 years, during that time I have held just about every job one could hold. I started scripting early in my career, and had mastered VBScript by the time Windows PowerShell arrived. Being a scripter, I was an early adopter of Windows PowerShell, and have since become a fanatic. Professionally I work as a virtualization administrator, and use VBScript, BAT, and Windows PowerShell to automate all levels of the infrastructure. In my free time, I run www.Get-Admin.com, and contribute to various scripting communities.
Bill Stewart (forum user name: AbqBill)
I first began automating computers in 1985 using batch files in MS-DOS 3.0. My first experience with an enhanced command shell was with 4DOS (a Command.com replacement) in 1989, and this whet my appetite for more powerful automation. I studied Pascal programming on my own for several years, and I had a renewed interest in OS automation when I began working with Windows NT 4.0 in 1997. When Windows 2000 came with baked-in WSH, I was hooked. I learned VBScript first, but I came to appreciate JScript's power and flexibility, and I now greatly prefer it to VBScript when writing WSH scripts. I also enjoy using Windows PowerShell and have applied it to numerous automation tasks. I have written numerous articles for Windows IT Pro magazine as well as a number of freeware utilities to help scripters, which you can download from my Web site: http://www.westmesatech.com/. For my day job, I am the systems and network administrator for French Mortuary, in Albuquerque, New Mexico, in the United States.
Trevor Sullivan (forum user name: Trevor Sullivan)
I started learning to write scripts back in 2004. I started out as a desktop support person, and quickly realized that an understanding of programming would be essential to pursuing a career in technology. At the time, VBScript was the best cross between ease of learning and scripting power, so I started there. A couple years later, Windows PowerShell came around, and although I was quite keen on it, I didn't adopt it right away. I took some time to study C#/.NET because I wanted to understand programming a little bit deeper. Over the past year, I have picked up Windows PowerShell, largely built on my previous knowledge of the Microsoft .NET platform, and I write primarily in Windows PowerShell today.
Jakob Svendsen (forum user name: Jakob Svendsen)
I began my scripting/programming career when I got my first computer, at age 8. Later on I got the C64, and progressed toward writing small games. I studied C++, PHP, HTML, CSS, ASM, and others during my technical education. In the past 2 years, I have worked at Coretech A/S, Denmark (http://blog.coretech.dk) as an IT Consultant and Microsoft Certified Trainer. I spend most of my workdays scripting, programming, or teaching Windows PowerShell, VBScript, and .NET applications (VB or C#).

Fredrik Wall (forum user name: Fredrik Wall)
I have been scripting since 1997. Since then I have been scripting with batch files, VBScript, KiXtart and Windows PowerShell. I work with Active Directory, Web servers, SQL servers, Windows Servers and Clients, Deployment, and more. So I script against most of Microsoft's applications. My blog: http://powershell.se/blog.

Andrew Barnes (forum user name: Andrew Barnes)
I have more than 15 years of experience ranging from desktop support to third line/server specialist. My first program was on the BBC Micro in 1982. I wrote:
I remember thinking, "Wow, Andrew is cool!" I continued scripting in enterprise environments with DOS batch files on a boot floppy, KIX in logon scripts, and then VBScripts in Active Directory. Now as a Microsoft Certified IT Professional, I'm taking on Windows Powershell for today's automation. I have always used scripting to automate everyday IT tasks, reduce workloads, and resolve technical issues. After all, why do it when you can script it?
Bartek Bielawski (forum user name: Bartek Bielawski)
Bartek has been working in IT for more than 10 years for one company, PAREXEL, a global organization with headquarters in the U.S. Before he got a real job, he was big Linux fan and amateur Linux admin, with some bash scripting and all kinds of awking, seding, cutting, and greping. That's why one of his first tasks at work (other than putting out fires all around) was to improve backup scripts (done in cmd back then). That forced him to get to know cmd.exe better. The experience was bad when compared to bashing, but it paid the bills...
A few years later, he tried to automate some tasks, which required something that cmd could not provide. His options were VBScript or Windows PowerShell. Even though he knows VBScript a bit, he always preferred the interactive Windows PowerShell. In his opinion, Windows PowerShell is the best product from Microsoft.
Kai Bluesky (forum user name: kai.bluesky)
VBScript is one of the most powerful tools that I have. I am used to scripting in WMI and ADSI. At the beginning, it just did my boring daily job automatically. Later, more complex tools—such as an inventory system and an application deployment tool—were implemented without costing my boss any money. Now, scripting has enabled me to join a professional team and my job has become more challenging.
Jaap Brasser (forum user name: Jaap Brasser)
Jaap is a Senior System Engineer in the Financial Services industry. He focuses on Microsoft and related technologies and has a passion for PowerShell. In his spare time he maintains his Blog, Twitter feed, @Jaap_Brasser, is a board member of the Dutch PowerShell User Group, and contributes on the Official Scripting Guys Forum and Windows PowerShell TechNet forums.
Uros Cala (forum user name: urkec)
My first couple of years as a system and DB administrator were really painful. My tasks kept piling up, I kept losing my head, and just when I was about to quit, I stumbled upon the Microsoft Script Center. I made use of a couple of simple scripts I found there, and for the first time I felt I was in control. My second big discovery was WMI—along with VBScript, it completely changed the way I do my job. I am currently exploring the .NET Framework and Windows PowerShell, trying to make my administrator life even easier.
Rob Campbell (forum user name: mjolinor)
I work at a medium-to-large corporate financial institution, as an AD and Exchange administrator. I have worked in IT for over 35 years, starting as a night operator on IBM System 3 and 360 series mainframes. I never really got the hang of VB, but love Windows PowerShell. I have done a few large-scale scripts, but most of my scripting work is ad-hoc, on-demand reports and maintenance changes. I do not know that I can lay claim to any particular area of specialization. The nearest I ever came up with for a good job description was "tactical logician".
Marc Adam Carter (forum user name: marcadamcarter)
I am currently a senior systems administrator with the Department of the Army. I started in the IT industry in 1996 with DOS and various flavors of *NIX. I was introduced to VBScript in 2000 and scripting became a regular obsession sometime in 2005. In 2008 I made the move to Windows PowerShell and have never looked back. My daily responsibilities keep me involved with Active Directory, supporting Microsoft Exchange, SharePoint, and various ASP.NETapplications. In 2011, I founded the Corpus Christi PowerShell User Group and try to help bring others up to speed on PowerShell.
Ravikanth Chaganti (forum user name: Ravikanth.Chaganti)
I have 9+ years of experience in IT and mostly in the Windows Server operating system related areas. My scripting experience dates back to my school days where I used to write DOS batch files to automate a few things on Windows 3.1. I did a lot of VBScripting, and a few popular ones include HVS2008 UI (http://hvs2008ui.codeplex.com), VHDShell Extensions (http://code.msdn.com/VHDShellExt), and a few other scripts on my blog. I primarily work on Hyper-V and SharePoint technologies. I use Windows PowerShell these days to automate a lot of activities around these two technologies.
Daniel Cruz (forum user name: Cruz_Daniel)
In the past five years as an IT Professional, I have focused on Microsoft products and have earned my MCSE 2003 and MCITP: Server Administrator 2008 Certifications. Windows PowerShell is my primary scripting language and I use it on a daily basis with Active Directory, Exchange and for other admin tasks. I mostly use Cmdlets, WMI and .NET in my scripts and have recently been focused on reusable code and automation. I have learned a ton from the Windows PowerShell community and am now doing my best to give some back. You can learn more about me on Twitter or my Blog.
Jeremy Engel (forum user name: firstname.lastname@example.com)
I started coding at the age of 10, writing games in BASIC for my lightning-fast Commodore 64. From there I ventured into the high-tech world of text-based online gaming, affectionately known as MUDs—specifically EverDark. Later, I made the jump to systems engineering, and it was there that I discovered VBScript. I currently use VBScript for access into all sorts of namespaces and frameworks: WMI, ADSI, SQL, Office, .NET, etc. I also write in HTML and C#, and I am currently casting a wary eye at Windows PowerShell.
Niklas Goude (forum user name: Niklas Goude)
I'm from Stockholm, Sweden, where i work at Enfo Zipper, a company that concentrates on client infrastructure. When I started scripting, i mainly focused on HTML and Javascript. Over time i got into PHP and finally VBScript, for managing the Windows environment. When I started at Enfo Zipper, one of the developers handed me a book on Windows PowerShell (PowerShell in Action, Bruce Payette ) and from that day on, I've been living Windows PowerShell. I also run a blog, http://www.powershell.nu, where I post scripts, ideas, and guides on Windows PowerShell.
Shane Hoey (forum user name: Shane Hoey)
My scripting experience started back when Windows XP was the new kid on the block, and I soon found myself scripting on a daily basis with VBScript, WMI, and ADSI. Fast forward to the 2009 Summer Scripting Games, and I finally discovered Windows PowerShell. I've been hooked ever since. One of the things I like most about Windows PowerShell is its ability to easily automate, especially my daily repetitive tasks. My background is system and network administration, but at work they just call me the PowerShell Geek these days. By the way, I also run the Powershell Usergroup Brisbane.

I am a network administrator, a Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist in Windows Server Virtualization and Configuration, and a Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer. I'm a devoted and passionate computer enthusiast from the early 80s to the present day, having used just about every microcomputer ever. I taught myself computer programming with 65xx machine code, working with many technologies―but primarily Microsoft. I deal with "anything thrown at me," from gnawed keyboards to recovery of Exchange servers, to networking setups and isolating the realm of the unknown. Currently, I test and deploy just about any new Microsoft Technology; I also deal with users in an enterprise class environment. I love Windows Powershell, Windows 7, and Hyper-V, in that order.
Tom Lavedas (forum user name: Tom Lavedas)
I built my first computer in 1980 (a Sinclair, ZedX80) to replace my programmable HP calculator and realized how useful personal computing could be. I've never held an IT position in my career, though as a staff engineer in a small manufacturing company I was pressed into service for a while. I worked out the transition from the company's antiquated mini-computer inventory system onto a WinNT file server based system just before Y2K made the mini inoperable. Rather, I'm an electrical engineer who scripts. Sometimes the scripts handle small engineering computations, but usually I use them to automate redundant desktop management tasks. I'm fluent in a few obsolete languages (or used to be), like FORTRAN, Algol, Pascal and PL1, conversant in C and JScript, but mostly I stick with the command console (aka batch), VBScript and VBA in Excel and PowerPoint. I especially like building user interfaces in HTML/HTA to make my scripts more versatile.
Thomas Lee (forum user name: Thomas Lee)
I've been scripting pretty much forever. I used to be pretty hot at JCL on the IBM 360 in the late 1960s, did a ton of shell scripting in the 70s on ICL VME. I learned batch scripting with DOS 2.0. I never really grokked VBS (and never got infected with *ix). But I truly "got" Monad when I first saw it in September 2003 and never looked back. I'm proficient in Windows PowerShell 1.0 and 2.0, and specialize in the .NET and WMI aspects. My one interesting fact is that I was the first person to blog about Monad.
Shay Levy (forum user name: Shay Levi)
I'm from Israel. I've been working in IT since 1998 as a system administrator, mostly using Microsoft Server technologies. I started to script HTML pages (JavaScript and ASP) and soon enough I converted Web pages scripting to system scripting using VBScript, WMI, ADSI, etc. Since the first days when PowerShell was introduced, I found myself diving into this new technology and I couldn't stop using it. For quite some time I wondered if one could fall in love with a piece of software. Now I know that's possible! Most of the time I like to hang out in the Windows PowerShell newsgroup and scripting related forums . They provide real world problems where I can help and learn from users alike. I also run a blog at http://blogs.microsoft.co.il/blogs/ScriptFanatic , so stop by and say hello.
Oliver Lipkau (forum user name: Oliver Lipkau)
I have been scripting for more than 10 years. I started with Batch at the age of 13 by modifying the school's PC. Today my main scripting language is Windows PowerShell. It allows me to automate the majority of my routine management of servers and clients. My specializations are ADSI and WMI.
I also code in vbs, ahk, html, js, batch, php, and asp . But Windows PowerShell is my favorite. My blog: http://oliver.lipkau.net/blog.

I have been writing scripts for 10 years in my role as an IT administrator. In my day-to-day work, I extensively make use of VB scripts, with a bit of .NET programming and Windows PowerShell on the side. Being in charge of ensuring compliance to our standard operating environment, I make use of a great deal of WMI, ADSI, and other wsh objects (registry, file streams, etc) to ensure that the majority, if not all, of the machines under my care adhere to our standards.

My name is Michael Moore; I was born in Greenville, TX and moved to Georgia when I was five because of my dad's work. I like long walks on the beach and the occasional … oh you didn't want that did you?
I live in Calhoun, GA and work at Mohawk Industries, one of the world's largest flooring manufacturers. I started working with batch files in 2008 when I started a new job where they had a Batch file that I improved, and then continuously added tasks to. I later moved to Windows PowerShell in 2010 when I started trying to do stuff that just couldn't be done in Batch and before I even got a handle on VBScript I ran across Windows PowerShell several times in the Hey Scripting Guys Blog.
I have pretty much been hooked since then.

I've been reading about tree fertilizers and urea constantly comes up as a good source of nitrogen for trees. Let's say your dogs always pick the same tree to urinate on every day. Would that tree be healthier, grow faster etc. as a result?
Tell me more
Gardening & Landscaping Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for gardeners and landscapers. It's 100% free, no registration required.
In one word, no. Dog urine contains high concentrations of nitrogen and salts. The concentrations are sufficient to burn grass roots. Tree roots near the surface are only slightly woodier and just as subject to burn. For mature trees they can probably deal with the root burn in localized areas. A freshly planted tree might have a harder time depending on the number of dogs. Edit: @David High nitrogen levels kill roots in a small localized zone. After the urea has been broken down into nitrogen that is available then new roots can make use of it. Dogs tend to be consistent on where they urinate so you get a cycle of root burn followed by new root growth in the kill area and then more root burn. This does not help a tree grow. | |||||||||

Some Facebook users don't seem to be aware of the difference between private messages and wall postings. I have a friend who is posting personal messages to family members' walls, unaware that those messages are seen by all of the person's Facebook friends.
Ferguson says to beware of applications that don't seem to have any purpose other than to spread themselves. Some of these applications automatically send notices to all your friends, telling them that you're using the applications and encouraging others to install them as well. In addition to spamming your friends, these applications could be gaining access to your profile information and displaying unwanted advertising to all who sign up.
Company spokesperson Simon Axten said Facebook has a team of people and software tools working to enforce rules for application developers. MySpace, according to a spokesperson, also employs a robust security team and tools, including software to block outgoing and incoming spam and to warn users about potential phishing sites.
Facebook's application development process, said Axten, "is relatively open to stimulate innovation and allow people to develop quickly." But he said developers must agree to a set of rules which, among other things, prohibit them from sending messages on the users' behalf.
Developers are now required to disclose what information they collect during the installation process, and Axten recommends that users "pay attention to those notices." He said developers are allowed to collect only the information that they need to run the application, but that can sometimes include profile information and the profiles of your friends.
On all sites, be cautious about clicking on any links, especially those shortened ones that are commonly used on Twitter. If a link is shortened by bit.ly or tinyurl, you have no idea where it will lead you until after you click. Most security suites can warn you before your browser opens potentially dangerous Web sites.
There are other threats, including the Koobface worm, that can steal your password and send spam from your account. Most Internet security programs will protect you against this and other malware.
Users should also be careful about links that appear in posts and messages that could lead to phishing or malware sites. And put on your thinking cap before responding to a friend's plea for money, even if it comes from your friend's Facebook account and includes a horrendous story such as being stuck in an overseas jail. Try to reach your friend some other way before responding, because it's likely a scam.
Disclosure: I am co-director of the nonprofit Internet safety organization, ConnectSafely.org, which receives support from Facebook, MySpace and other social networking companies.

Very little is known about Sophia's life before she arrived in Alaska. Since 1944, though, her decisions and actions have been cataloged and studied thoroughly. Moments after the crash, she made the decision to stay behind with the wounded and ordered her son Thomas to lead the able-bodied to safety... and to secure the technology to get them home.
While Thomas and his group integrated with humans and lived seemingly normal "free" lives, Sophia and the others were incarcerated for 66 years in the punishing confines of the Mount Inostranka Detention Facility.
Even behind bars, Sophia remained the leader and spokesperson of her people. She negotiated with multiple Presidential administrations and worked tirelessly for a peaceful release of her people. She was very close to an agreement with President Elias Martinez until the assassination attempt heightened fears and paranoia of the her people�s motives.
A short time after the crash, Sophia was released in exchange for an antidote to cure the mysterious illness that befell the passengers of Avias Air Flight 514. This led to a tearful reunion between Sophia and Thomas -- the first time they had seen each other in 66 years.
The sentiment did not last long, however, as it became apparent that Sophia and Thomas differed drastically in their goals and methods. Thomas favors action and, at times, violence; whereas Sophia favors honesty and diplomacy... for now.
Laura Innes stars as Sophia Maguire, the leader of a mysterious group of detainees being held at a top-secret facility. She becomes a critical liaison to President Elias Martinez (Blair Underwood) amidst a huge government cover-up, in NBC's new high-octane conspiracy thriller The Event.
Recognized for her talented work in front of the camera as well as behind the lens, Laura Innes is a three-time Emmy Award-nominated actress and director.
Innes is best known for her work as the skilled but abrasive Dr. Kerry Weaver on the long-running hit show "ER." She joined the acclaimed NBC medical drama in its second season, and her recurring role led to being cast as a series regular at the start of the third season. She received two Emmy nominations for her portrayal, as well as three Screen Actors Guild Awards as part of the "ER" ensemble, and has received five nominations for Best Supporting Actress from Viewers for Quality Television. In January 2007, Innes left "ER" after 12 seasons, becoming the longest-serving cast member in the show's history. She returned to "ER" for two episodes (including the series finale) during the series' 15th and final season.
Also a seasoned television director, Innes garnered an Emmy nomination for directing "The West Wing." She has also directed various popular shows, including several more episodes of "ER" as well as episodes of "Brothers & Sisters" and "House."
Innes' additional TV and film acting credits include the Emmy-winning cable film "And the Band Played On," as well as the NBC hit comedy series "Wings," where she played the lovable but promiscuous ex-wife Bunny from 1991-93. Innes co-starred in the blockbuster apocalyptic film "Deep Impact," and with fellow "ER" castmate Noah Wyle in "Can't Stop Dancing."
Innes began her acting career in the theater. She performed in her first major play at Chicago's renowned Goodman Theatre, where among other roles she played Stella alongside John Malkovich's Stanley in "A Streetcar Named Desire." Other major stage credits include "Two Shakespearean Actors" with Eric Stoltz at Lincoln Center; "Our Town" at the Seattle Repertory Theatre; and "Three Sisters" at the La Jolla Playhouse in San Diego.
Innes resides in Los Angeles with her family and is a graduate of Northwestern University.

Former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, who's rumored to be among the top contenders for Mitt Romney's running mate, campaigned for the presumptive GOP nominee in Michigan Wednesday and beat back V.P questions.
At a Romney campaign office opening in Jackson, a woman in the crowd asked Pawlenty: "Are you going to come back to Michigan when you're vice president?"
The former governor replied that he's been back to Michigan "a fair amount," but "as to the vice presidential thing, we'll know soon enough."
Hank Choate, chair of the Jackson County GOP, asked him what his schedule would be on Friday, as some have speculated Romney's running mate announcement could come as early as the end of the week.
"My schedule Friday is I'll be in New Hampshire," Pawlenty said.
Weighing in further, Pawlenty said Romney has a crop of "unbelievably talented wonderful people" to choose from for his vice presidential nominee.
"You've got this tremendous new governor in Nevada Brian Sandoval. If you haven't heard of him, you will. He's terrific. Susanna Martinez in New Mexico, the first Hispanic Republican woman governor in the history of the country. Bobby Jindal in Louisiana, tremendous reformer, outstanding governor and leader. Marco Rubio, the rising star and senator from Florida," Pawlenty said.
He also listed South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, Ohio Sen. Rob Portman and House Budget Committee Chair Paul Ryan.
Pawlenty further added a new name to the V.P. speculation, saying Gen. David Petraeus, director of the Central Intelligence Agency, would be a good pick -- one day after a spokesman for the CIA shot down reports that Petraeus would consider running for elected office.
The Petraeus suggestion originally came Tuesday from The Drudge Report, which is very popular and influential among conservatives.
"The list goes on and on and on," Pawlenty said. "So as you look to the future of our party and movement it's very, very bright. There's tremendous next generation talent coming up."
