I am using CCS5 RC with a M4F processor. I have several structs that I am packing using __attribute__ ((packed)) which works except for this struct:
typedef struct _bsd_select_args_t
long nfds;
long rdoffset;
long wroffset;
long exoffset;
long tooffset;
unsigned long isblock;
unsigned long rdfd;
unsigned long wrfd;
unsigned long exfd;
unsigned long long timeout;
}__attribute__ ((packed)) bsd_select_args_t;
I get the following error:
#1167 invalid attribute for "struct _bsd_select_args_t" ..... line 125 C/C++ Problem if I change timeout member from: unsigned long long timeout;
#1167 invalid attribute for "struct _bsd_select_args_t" ..... line 125 C/C++ Problem
if I change timeout member from:
unsigned long timeout;
then it build ok.
I therefore can only assume that the packed attribute is not working for long long type.
I also have built this file for the MSP430FR5739 without problem so I think it is only an issue with the ARM compiler.
Our current version of the ARM compiler only supports the GCC packed attribute on targets that have hardware support for unaligned loads and stores, and for the data sizes that are supported. The ARM Cortex targets, including M4F, have hardware support for unaligned accesses for data sizes through 32 bits only. We have added support for packed 64-bit data sizes on these targets (as well as packed attribute support for other ARM targets that don't have hardware support for unaligned accesses) in the next version of our compiler.
Our next release will include:
-- packed support for 64-bit data sizes on ARM Cortex targets
-- packed support for data sizes through 64-bits on pre-Cortex ARM targets with --abi=eabi
--packed support for data sizes through 32 bits on pre-Cortex ARM targets with COFF abi
good to know. Thank you.
When is this version planned to be released?
The next release will be ARM CGT 5.0 and it is planned for the middle of next year.

Posted for Patrick.net reader A.
Hi Patrick,
I am an avid follower of your site and learned quite a bit about do's and dont's of the real estate. Thank you for keeping up the site.
I have a short but an important question to ask you:
Does "the disclosure regarding real estate agency relationship" form bind me in any way with an agent after I terminate the relationship?
In this particular instance, I did not feel the agent carried out her duties properly in negotiating the price to justify my offer (such as pointing out the cons of the property or running comps to convince the seller's agent or the seller). After I got nowhere with this property that I really wanted to buy, I told her not to search properties any further. At this point, I am inclined to go after this property with a different agent that understands real estate negotiations and can produce a convincing argument to the seller. After her termination, I called the seller's agent and told my side of the story about this particular house and raised the price slightly. She approved my reasoning and told me that she would relate this message to the seller to reach a settlement.
I strongly believe that the real duties of being a buyer's agent goes beyond meeting the buyer in front of the property and write an offer letter. The real test is how well the agent is able to produce a convincing argument so that the seller's agent can work with you.
Please let me know what you think. If you want to post this email on the website, please go ahead :-)

The World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) has reminded people that physical activity is a good way to reduce the risk of developing cancer.
According to the group, at least 30 minutes of exercise a day is enough to lower the chances of developing the disease and will also help to improve heart health.
The WCRF also advised people to keep a close eye on their weight.
"There is now convincing evidence that excess body fat is a risk factor for six types of cancer, including breast cancer and bowel cancer. In fact, scientists now say that, after not smoking, maintaining a healthy weight is the most important thing you can do for cancer prevention," the group explained.
Meanwhile, energy-dense foods were flagged up as something to only be consumed on occasion, as were red meats.

William Schneider Jr.
last updated: March 07, 2007
- Defense Science Board: Former Member
- Project for the New American Century: Signatory
- Center for Security Policy: Advise
Please note: IPS Right Web neither represents nor endorses any of the individuals or groups profiled on this site.
William Schneider Jr., a longtime proponent of controversial weapons programs and hardline advocacy groups like the Center for Security Policy (CSP), has worked as a defense adviser to the George W. Bush administration. He has also served as chairman of the Defense Science Board (DSB), a federal advisory committee that was established in 1956 to periodically review "the needs and opportunities presented by new scientific knowledge for radically new weapons systems" (see "Defense Science Board: History," Office of the Secretary of Defense). A supporter of national missile defense, Schneider has also served on the boards of a number of defense contractors, including BAE Systems, the British defense contractor that has been investigated by British and U.S. authorities for unethical business practices.
Schneider has been affiliated with a number of rightist and neoconservative-aligned advocacy groups, including Frank Gaffney's CSP, the Hudson Institute, and the Project for the New American Century (PNAC). A former adjunct fellow at Hudson and adviser to CSP, Schneider signed several PNAC open letters to government officials, including the September 20, 2001 letter that urged President Bush to attack Iraq as part of the war on terror, " even if evidence does not link Iraq directly to the [9/11] attack" (for more on PNAC and contributors to its letter campaigns, see Right Web Profile: Project for the New American Century).
Schneider also participated in a study group that produced the report "Rationale and Requirements for Nuclear Forces and Arms Control," published by the hawkish National Institute for Public Policy (NIPP) in 2001. According to the World Policy Institute, the NIPP study served as a blueprint for George W. Bush's Nuclear Posture Review ("About Face," World Policy Institute, May 2002). Among the study participants were several former Bush administration officials, including Stephen Cambone, Stephen Hadley, Robert Joseph, and Keith Payne (NIPP's director).
In 2004, Schneider published "A 21st-Century Role for Nuclear Weapons," in which he endorsed the Nuclear Posture Review. Twentieth century non-proliferation strategies like "international norms, exhortation, and economic sanctions," Schneider argued, have failed. Drawing a distinction between "dissuasion" and "deterrence," Schneider advocated "developing a military capability that holds a proliferator's entire WMD posture at risk rather than relying solely on the ability to deter the threat or use of WMD after they have been developed, produced, and deployed, the prospects for reducing the role of WMD in international politics are much improved." He concluded: "Proliferation of WMD was stimulated as an unintended consequence of a U.S. failure to invest in technologies such as ballistic missile defense that could have dissuaded nations from investing in such weapons" (Issues in Science and Technology, Spring 2004).
Before participating in the NIPP study group, Schneider helped produce the final report of the so-called Rumsfeld Missile Commission (1998), a controversial congressional commission that made the highly controversial argument that several rogue nations would be capable of attacking the United States with ballistic missiles within a few short years. Other members of the Donald Rumsfeld-chaired commission included Cambone, James Woolsey, and Paul Wolfowitz (Lisbeth Gronlund, "What They Didn't Do," Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, November/December 1998).
An economist by training, Schneider began work with "strategic forces, Soviet affairs, theater nuclear force operations, and arms control," in the late 1960s at the Hudson Institute. Throughout the 1970s, Schneider worked on Capitol Hill as a staff member for the Senate and, later, the House of Representatives, where he assisted the chairman of the Appropriations Committee. He entered the Reagan White House as the Associate Director for National Security and International Affairs at the Office of Management and Budget. In 1982 he moved to the State Department, where he served as Under Secretary for Security Assistance, Science, and Technology until 1986. Schneider has also served on several presidential commissions and government advisory bodies dealing with counterterrorism, intelligence, defense, and economic policy, including the President's General Advisory Committee on Arms Control and Disarmament where he was chairman from 1987 to 1993 (for more on Schneider's background, see Biography of William Schneider Jr., Commission on the Future of the U.S. Aerospace Industry).
In April 2002, Schneider told the Washington Post that he had been encouraged by then-Defense Secretary Rumsfeld to look into the use of nuclear-tipped interceptors in a missile defense system. The inquiry itself was seen as a dramatic shift because, 30 years prior, the idea of using nuclear weapons to destroy incoming ballistic missiles had been deemed "technically problematic and politically unacceptable" (Graham, Bradley, "Nuclear-Tipped Interceptors Studied," Washington Post, April 11, 2002).
Schneider has served on the boards of several contractors, some of which have large government defense contracts, including the United Kingdom-based BAE Systems, one of the world's largest defense contractors. The company, which produces heavy weapons and parts for civilian and military aircraft, has been the target of a series of investigations both in the United States and the United Kingdom regarding alleged corruption in its business dealings, including with Saudi Arabia. According to the International Herald Tribune (June 26, 2007), British press outlets reported in mid-2007 that " BAE had paid more than $2 billion into bank accounts in Washington operated by Prince Bandar bin Sultan, who for many years was the Saudi ambassador to the United States, as part of an arms deal in the 1980s. Bandar has denied the reports, calling the allegations 'untrue' and 'grotesque in their absurdity.'"
Schneider is president of International Planning Services, an international trade and advisory company, and served as chairman of the Defense Science Board during the George W. Bush presidency. During his tenure at the DSB, Schneider oversaw a number of controversial proposals, including a massive expansion of covert antiterror operations within the Defense Department that was proposed in the wake of 9/11. According to the Inter Press Service (IPS) (November 5, 2002), the DSB proposal, the 2002 "Summer Study on Special Operations and Joint Forces in Support of Countering Terrorism," urged "the Pentagon to 'take the terrorist threat as seriously as it takes the likelihood and consequences of major theater war,' urging officials to launch secret missions and intelligence operations to penetrate and disrupt terrorist cells abroad. Some of those operations should be aimed at signaling to countries that harbor terrorists that 'their sovereignty will be at risk.'"
Among some of the DSB study's concrete proposals, according to the Inter Press Service, was to recommend "the creation of a super-Intelligence Support Activity, an organization it dubs the Proactive, Preemptive Operations Group (P2OG), to bring together CIA and military covert action, information warfare, intelligence, and cover and deception. ... To bolster government [human intelligence] capabilities, the task force [advanced] the idea of an intelligence 'surge/unsurge' capability—a 'robust, global cadre of retirees, reservists, and others who are trained and qualified to serve on short notice, including expatriates.' This group could be pressed into service during times of crisis. P2OG would launch secret operations aimed at 'stimulating reactions' among terrorists and states possessing weapons of mass destruction, meaning it would prod terrorist cells into action, thus exposing them to 'quick-response' attacks by U.S. forces."
Responding to concerns that such a plan would cause the Pentagon to infringe on CIA terrain, Schneider told IPS that the DSB was merely seeking to expand ways in which special ops units could aid in the "war on terror," adding that in any case although the "CIA executes the plans ... they use Department of Defense assets."
Other advisory posts Schneider has served in during the George W. Bush presidency include membership on the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission and the Commission on the Future of the United States Aerospace Industry.
In November 2005, Schneider participated in a conference on missile defense held by the American Foreign Policy Council (AFPC), along with AFPC Chair Ilan Berman, and Brian Kennedy, president of the Claremont Institute.

When it comes to being a great Intel Teach MT/ST,facilitator successful support is the key. In this discussion, we're brainstorming ways that we can help make every participant's experience successful.
Every contribution is entered into the drawing for an Amazon Kindle, so share often and keep coming back to explore the list.
Unfortunately, for legal reasons, we can only ship prizes within the US
What other suggestions do you have to help make each training a success. Add to this list for a chance to win an Amazon Kindle.
Note: The incentivized discussion period has concluded. A drawing was held and the winner was notified.
I've found that preparing your participants before the class ever starts is very helpful.
During the class, make sure you remind them that the trainers have all been in their shoes and have survived! And chocolate is always good.
Good ideas Cookie. Can you attach a copy of your welcome letter. I think all will find it helpful to see the different examples.
When I do a PT training, I find it very helpful to send out reminder emails a day or so prior to our next meeting. These emails indicate where and when we will meet, what we will work on, what teachers may want to bring and invite questions to be submitted.
For MT trainings, I find it helps a lot to model using questioning techniques with the teachers. One group of MTs indicated they felt much more comfortable not "directly answering questions but having discussions" due to this modeling.
Preparation, preparation, preparation. The more prepared I am the better the training goes! I know preparation is different for every person - but I am looking forward to seeing what things are in your backpacks.!
Julia, No matter how many times I present a course, I realize I need to prepare more.
One of the keys to success for my trainings is that I make sure I am totally familiar with all the unit plans in the Designing Effective Projects site. So often it is critical to share these with teachers as they are stuck on either a project idea, or their CFQ's - and I find that when they read about what other teachers are doing, they can then move forward. In addition to the DEP unit plan, I also have lots of other unit ideas I verbally share with participants that I have seen developed over the years. So prior to every training, I review, review, review.
I also find my trainings go MUCH better if I match my manual with agenda spreadsheets. I use mini post-its to mark the manual with times I should be on each page. It reminds me of breaks and milestones.
I read your post and realized how often I relied on those post-it notes and highlighted materials in the past. The new digital viewer changes the way I facilitated previously. One of the HUGE changes for me was how it was actually easier to project the Digital Viewer and not use the Presentations. I really liked how smoothly it went - just like showing the entire manual to the participants. I could highlight and show them the "important points" I found in the manual. Personal notes - just like sticking the post-it can also be made (with comments on them.)
The one challenge I see is that these digital viewer notes do not "stick out" of the top or sides of my binder like earlier versions. Not I've gotta figure out how to use the agenda in a way that it reminds me when to flip digital viewer pages LOL.
I actually think we need a facilitators guide now - and that way, you can have a print copy if you want to print it and then add your notes.
I like the idea of a Facilitator's Guide. What I'm doing is taking the notes that I had added to my binders from the ST resources etc. and I'm adding them to my notes on the Digital Viewer, but having a FG would be great.
Yes, a facilitator guide is on the list!
Shelley, Alison just posted this.... Download a presentation you can use and share to learn more about the new Intel Education Viewer. The Intel Teach Essentials Course and Intel Teach Thinking with Technology Course are now shipping in the viewer - "Digital Guides" replacing the print manuals.
Do you think the Digital Guides are Facilitator's Guides or is it another name for the Digital Viewer?
Hey Vanessa - the viewer is actually called the Intel Education Viewer and the manual is the Digital Manual. I just found out that in the U.S., the words "digital manual" is localilized to "digital guide" - so the answer is no, what Alison was referring to is not the facilitator guide.......
Thanks for the clarification.
There's a big difference in preparation depending on where the training will be held. If the participants are coming to my location, I have to make sure they know how to get here, where to park (including getting parking permits), and how to find the room. I need to have power strips set up, and posted information on connecting to the wireless. Of course they need to know where the bathrooms are.
If I am going to their location, all that information needs to get to me -- hopefully before I show up! Especially important is the technology connectivity. Make friends with the tech person at the district and find out what is blocked -- and if you might possibly maybe pretty-please-with-sugar-on-top could unblock these sites for me this week (and keep them open for your teachers after I am gone)?
Doug, your post is appreciated, these are the things that are so often overlooked but so important.
You hit a home run with the reminder of how important it is to get to know the District person in charge of opening up blocked sites. I'm thinking I need to keep a stash of Chocolate now ! I am thinking this could be one way to let this person know how much I appreciate his/her work on behalf of the teachers. Now to figure out what "thank you" needs to be left so the sites remain open after a training.
Oh, bribery! Good idea. Maybe a bunny man would be appreciated?
I hear from Stephen Andrews that an Intel Bunny can be used for a variety of encouragement activities! I'm not sure how well it will work to open up district blocked sites - but I'm confident it could not hurt to try .
OOOOHHHHH! Especially if it's one of them covered in the digital fabric- with the binary code of 1's and 0's.
I hear there is a site where Intel employees can order these fun items. Is it accessible to us?
Vanessa, I have started creating "generic" agendas for my trainings. That way, I have more time to plan for each training, and add or take away those areas that may or may not be needed at a particular school. It has really helped me cut down on the "creating the agenda" time that I used to spend.
One tip that has been touched upon but cannot be stressed enough is to really become familiar and comfortable with the content. Especially content such as the CFQs since this is an area teachers typically struggle with. This will greatly improve the facilitator's ability to assist participants with their unit plans and help them to make strong connections to their teaching.
Stephanie, in my mind, the CFQ's so very important that when I facilitate a training, I take the time to make sure the teachers really understand what they are about. The questions have to drive everything.
I send with my welcome letter a copy of my completed lesson so that participants will know what is expected of them. I want them to know that I am not asking them to do anything that I have not already done. I also include the language of the county and explain how the strategies are aligned with the goals of itel
We would love to have a copy of that letter as an example. Can you upload it here or in the Facilitate session and provide a link to it in this session?
Thanks ,
There are so many great ideas already in this discussion. I will just add some minor, but important to me ideas.
With students, it is important to not only engage them with concrete instructional material, but to also have them buy in through social/behavioral ownership. If they like the environment or identify with enjoyable aspects of the environment, they may be more likely to retain and use the instructional material. Same goes with teachers. Sit and listen doesn't always work well.
Especially in multi-day workshops or learning programs, pull the participants into the fun of the training. Honor participants throughout the day with a lighthearted 'great idea' or 'active participant' encouragement awards. We adults may feel silly sharing the ocassional Whoop!, but if the participants can relax and share in the experience with their co-participants, then we may be making deeper connections not only into the instructional plan, but also connecting to other teachers and building on to their professional learning network.
My 2 cents.
Mr. Martin, (Do you go by the letter H as a first name?) Good advice when you say "Honor participants throughout the day with a lighthearted 'great idea' or 'active participant' encouragement awards." These things go a long way. Everyone likes to leave class knowing that they contributed.
This is one of the initial letters that I send out to my participants.
Gail, great letter. Thanks for sharing. That's what I love about this community!
Do you have suggestions for things I should add or take out?
Gail, the only thing I would add would be the possible NET*T standards. If you have state technology standards, you might want to include those as well. Another idea I really appreciate is having the teachers bring a Unit Plan they are or have worked on before. Sometimes just having to create something from scratch can get in the way, and that can lead to frustration and dropouts. LIke you, I have my participants register prior to the training for the various logins we will use, but you know as well as I do that doesn't always happen. :-) Just be prepared to have them create those at the beginning of the training.
Thank you for sharing this wonderful document.
Thanks Neil. What a good idea. Many teachers may not be familiar with the NETS and this would be a good avenue for introducing it.
Here are some facilitator tricks that come to mind:
1. Make links within all supporting websites. For example, you might use an engage group, wiki, blog, or something else for your specific group. Make sure they are linked together so that the participants can keep up with you and won't struggle trying to "see" what everyone else is seeing.
2. Invite participants to visit the various places, set up gmail, delicious, etc. before you meet. Especially, remind them to KEEP all passwords and logins that are provided to them by Intel Teach or the other major players. You won't get 100% to "pre-visit" but you will get some and that will reduce confusion during the workshop.
3. Have two computers available for the presenter. When possible, two projectors (really cool). So, one computer is displaying directions or locations to the group via a projector. The second is sitting right next to that computer but is showing facilitator notes, or the next page in the digital viewer or ppt so that you know what is coming up as the participants work. I use a pair of laptops and set them up together. It is helpful also when you need to make an adjustment, correction, or check out a link during the activities without causing a distraction.
I have found that sharing sample documents are very useful and help participants to understand what is expected of them.
I know it has already been mentioned that teachers have a list of logins and links to sites which will be used during the course. It can be even more helpful if it is annotated, and if the participants may add more annotation. I have sometimes created a wiki in addition to using the community for this purpose because in Essentials we are showing uses of wikis.
One you may want to look at is: this wiki from a TwT MT course I led this summer. The teachers and administrators really enjoyed having a place to gather links and materials outside the community, though they used the community extensively as well!
Oh, I just remembered something else!
When we begin groups, we never know just how seriously they will take our break time guidelines. My first Intel trainer gave us each a small paper on which to write our names when we returned before the timer went off.
Names were added to a container and drawn for prizes the last day.
I have been collecting Intel treats unused from trainings and those we get to order once in a while in the community when there is an announcement of materials available for free. I use these treats along with other ones I pick up here and there (often goodies from conferences, supplemented with a candy bar or other small prize if needed) and I allow teachers to choose their prize when their name is drawn.
Of course it can be done daily or saved up for a big drawing on the last day. Teachers get to decide before the drawing whether to ignore names when they are drawn multiple times.
It's a small thing, but they love it, and I don't have to worry about people arriving for training and coming back from breaks on time!
By the way, a Kindle would be a GREAT prize on the last day of a training, wouldn't it???
I've been pondering how to keep folks in the community after their training is completed. I know that often they don't think about Intel for a while, until they are ordering materials for a training, if they have done a MT course.
Also, those who are being trained as PTs might not explore deeply in the community during their courses.
I see the Community as one way to keep providing support to PTs and MTs after their training, but I am trying to gather ideas of how best to *snag* them before they finish their trainings and make them want to maintain their relationship with the community.
Any ideas?
I used the Engage Community to support my last Essentials training. I reminded the teachers every day that they could reach me and the entire community with questions after our training. Several times in the training, I pointed out how the Engage Community could help answer the question. I've seen several of those participants active in the community since the training. (I wish it had been everyone who continued participating.)
How can we support and engage these new participants in the community such that they want to regularly visit and share with all of us?
I am starting a new thinking tools training in two weeks. It will be my plan to include as an assignment an activity involving the community at the completion of each module. Since I will have created the group in the community, exploring one tool in the communityafter each module should not appear as something extra.
If you notify us of the group name in the moderator area, we could send them welcoming and encouraging messages... :-)
I wonder if it would help if we highlighted one discussion each day, or sent them a link to a discussion which might shed light on something that came up during training? We would need to remind them to login before clicking the link...
Are there particular areas of the community or particular discussions you think would be beneficial and exciting for all our participants? I think the "What's in your bag?" and "Favorite web 2.0 tool" discussions would be enticing to learners...
I have found creating discussion questions on curriculum such as mastery learning model, best practices, assessment, etc. works in my school district. Providing a resource that helps them connect theory to practice has been very helpful.
Another suggestion would be to have participants works in pairs. Have participants identify their strengths and comfort level and pair them with others. Working with another oftentimes will reduce the stress of learning a new application. That adds support for the development of a successful experience.
I think it is very important to know ahead of time the skill level of the those you are instructing to help guide your pacing.

If "hundreds and hundreds" protested, where are the photo´s, oh union slugs?
just make up a number if you are the union... the current WH does it all the time......lie, lie, lie...no problem the corrupt media will carry the water.
Heard a policeman at the LAX protest tell a reporter that they are no longer allowed to report on the size of a crowd of protesters. I guess that means that only the side that´s lying can give us the numbers.
The unions did so much good for Hostess they want to spread their cheer. Um, no thanks.
Fifty employees and a few hundred paid mourners trucked in by the unions. Why don´t people ever state the obvious?Just like at LAX, where all of those interviewed who were showing solidarity with the SEIU people had no idea what the actual issues were in their grievances. Just a bunch of rent-a-bodies.
Hundreds out of a million workers. Great representation by the union wanna-bees.
Typical union socialist answer, lie, lie, lie and lie some more. How´s that union work out for you Hostess workers?

Founded by a ring of cinephiles who set out to rehab an abandoned theater just north of George Washington University, West End Cinema screens foreign, independent, and documentary films that open up new intellectual and cultural vistas. Films run the genre gamut from quirky, independent dramedies and comedramas to special live events such as Opera in Cinema or Ballet in Cinema. Sunset-orange and slate walls and recessed lighting usher guests from a glass-fronted lobby into three cozy theaters, each of which seats between 50 and 100 watchers. On the way, they'll pass an abundantly stocked concession stand, where they can harvest drinks from a full bar, baklava, and gourmet sandwiches along with additional children from the sour patch.
One In Ten was founded in 1991 at the same time we began the Reel Affirmations International Gay and Lesbian Film Festival. Through the arts, One In Ten works to build community among GLBT people fostering a sense of belonging by bringing our stories, our struggles and accomplishments to life on the stage, screen and page.
Best known for his smooth-talking, baritone Lovemaster persona, Craig Shoemaker lures giggles out into the open with stories and a penchant for vocal impersonation that could shame a mockingbird. Shoemaker's standup is filled with keen observations, warped tales from his life, and a dead-on impersonation of Don Knotts. With a resume that includes a Comedy Central special voted by viewers as one of the top 20 of all time, Shoemaker's talents have landed him stints acting, voicing animated characters, and authoring wry children's books.
Since 1965, Choral Arts has toured internationally, produced 18 recordings, and grown its symphonic chorus to include more than 180 professional singers. Artistic director Scott Tucker christens his first season with the ensemble, calling upon more than 17 years of experience as a director at Cornell University and as an assistant conductor at Harvard University. The ensemble regularly performs with the National Symphony Orchestra and other orchestras from around the world.
When the Old Town Theater was remodeled in 2012, the owners discovered an architectural gem that waited 98 years to be uncovered. Throughout the theater, they found pressed tin dating back to the venue's inception as a vaudeville and silent-film house in 1914. The most amazing discovery, however, was a grand staircase that had been left out of the building plans since the 1930s. Now the theater pays homage to its roots, even while offering modern amenities such as spacious seating, a professional light-and-sound system, and a television that shows stuff in color.
At Rivertowne 12 Cinemas, children's films, supernatural thrillers, comedies, and superhero blockbusters all share equal billing. Twelve auditoriums light their silver screens with 3D and digital projections, carrying audience members to other worlds so they don't blow their savings accounts while trying to make a space elevator.
Inside a state-of-the-art facility with a restored 1938 theater, the American Film Institute's 2011 European Union Film Showcase screens more than 40 box-office hits, directorial debuts, and Academy Award contenders from 26 European countries. This year's selections include Denmark's A Funny Man, a look at the life and career of popular comedian Dirch Passer, and France's animated Tales of the Night. Anchored around John Eberson's historic Silver Theatre, the AFI Silver Theatre and Cultural Center shows culturally relevant films from three lavishly equipped theaters capable of showing film formats ranging from 16mm to 70mm, as well as digital projections and Lite-Brite art. Filmgoers attending Thursday or Friday showings can stop by the theater's café from 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. for happy-hour drink specials, festive music, and complimentary snacks.

How much is your data worth? Does your business rely on a database of customer contacts or order forms? Are you content creator who creates graphics for customers? What would it cost your business if you lost that data?
Backups are the answer, though finding a way to back up data cost effectively and with a minimum of user interaction is one of the many challenges in this field. One way to maintain a local copy of your key data is to copy it to another place - whether that's to a CD, a tape drive or an external hard drive. With the widespread adoption of networking technologies there's another way that is gaining popularity - store a copy of your business critical data on a Network-Attached Storage device. A NAS box, as they are commonly called, allows you to leverage your existing network infrastructure to put a backup drive in place that works independently of your computers.
A product we're impressed with is the Synology DiskStation series (available in 2 drive, 4 drive and larger models). The Synology DiskStation combines management software with a low-cost hardware platform to present a NAS box that has a lot more features than similar units from other vendors. The same management software is used between their units so you only have to learn it once in order to manage any of the DiskStation series. The hardware platforms can be purchased with or without hard drives to allow customization of the storage space to your particular needs.

Season's greetings from First Step Internet Techsupport! During the holiday season we often see an increase in the number of new computers that need to be setup. We have two suggestions on how to keep your new computer healthy. One, setting up automatic updates, and two, registering or installing anti-virus software.
First, check to make certain your computer is set to receive the latest updates. By default, Windows will be set to do this daily at 3 a.m. – if your computer is usually turned off at that time it is a good idea to set Windows to automatically download new updates and let you know when they are ready. This setting can be found in the Control Panel > System Security > "Turn automatic updating on or off" – choose the appropriate setting in the dropdown box.
It is a great idea to make certain you activate an anti-virus before going online to play. Remember, better safe than sorry. Many new computers come with an anti-virus pre-installed, such as Norton or McAfee. However, for these programs to adequately protect your computer you do need to make certain it is activated. This usually requires buying the license from the company that made the anti-virus program.
If you are interested in a free anti-virus program, then try our favorite anti-virus program, Microsoft Security Essentials. It has all the benefits of purchased anti virus programs but it is free. This program updates regularly and has great detection abilities and removal techniques.
You can download Microsoft Security essentials from Microsoft.com at http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials
Apple users should also be protecting their computers. ProtectMac AntiVirus can be found on the apple.com site at http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/networking_security/protectmacantivirus.html
Happy Holidays and safe computing from First Step Internet Techsupport!

You've been living out all your mermaid fantasies in and out of the water this Summer, but perhaps your body is suffering from chlorine overload (or salt saturation) as a result. Spending time at the pool or beach can wear down your hair, skin, and nails. If you follow these simple steps after your next dip, though, then you'll be sure to elude beauty disaster. Find out how to erase red eye, revive chipped polish, and more when you keep reading.
1. Red eyes:Contrary to popular belief, it's not necessarily chlorine that causes inflamed, burning eyes at the pool. In fact, recent research attributes red eyes to germs found on people, such as cosmetics, dirt, and sweat, that mixes with chlorine in the water. Avoid looking bloodshot by rinsing eyes with water and then using drops like Visine Totality Multi-Symptom Relief ($1).
2. Green hair: Chlorine mixes with copper in pool water to tint blond hair sea-monster shades. And although pastel hair colors are abound this season, green hair hasn't quite made the trend list . . . yet. Be sure to sidestep an unwanted dye job (or dried-out strands) by applying a leave-in conditioner before your laps for protection, followed by a thorough shampoo postswim. Try Aubrey Organics Swimmer's Normalizing Shampoo ($13) or a natural vinegar rinse to restore your hair.
3. Chipped polish: Salt, sand, and poolside stucco can wreak havoc on a pedicure; be ready to repair your nails at a moment's notice by keeping the same shade on hand for touch-ups. You can dip a toothpick in the lacquer to fill in a chip. Or, use polish remover to smooth the nail, then top with another coat of polish. Voilà! You'll have sandal-ready feet once again.
4. Tan lines: Despite your sunscreen efforts, your criss-crossed bikini has left you with a graphic tan design that doesn't mesh with your late-night outfit change. Blend tan lines in a hurry by using a fast-acting self-tanner like St. Tropez Instant Glow Body Lotion ($18) on pale spots. Then, exfoliate regularly to help fade the lines faster.
5. Peeling skin: After you've been playing beach bum for days, perhaps the peeling process has begun. Reach for an aloe-rich lotion to soothe dry and irritated skin, or take the spa route and hop into a milk bath for a healing soak.

Rocky Shore
The shoreline is the border between two worlds, a fluid boundary where the water advances and retreats with the rhythm of the tides. Here, barnacles stand on their heads and wave their feathery legs in the currents and brilliant ochre stars ply the rocks.
California mussel
Layers of interwoven mussel shells look lifeless when exposed to air, but under water they come alive. The shells open slightly and tiny hairs, or cilia, beat rhythmically to draw in water carrying tiny particles of food. Where waves pound the rocks, mussels out-compete other animals and plants for space. But mussels can't take over completely—other predators, such as lobsters, crabs and sea stars eat them in areas where waves don't pound as hard. Algae, barnacles and others use the cleared living space.
Learn more
Long and eel-like, monkeyface-eels sport a bluntly rounded snout, large fleshy lips and two black lines that radiate from behind their eyes. A dorsal fin runs along the eel's back. A lumpy ridge appears on adult monkeyface-eels' heads. Their color ranges from uniform light brown to dark green—some specimens have orange spots on their bodies and orange-colored fin tips.
Learn more
Giant green anemone
This green plantlike creature is actually an animal with algae plants living inside it. In this symbiotic relationship, the algae gain protection from snails and other grazers and don't have to compete for living space, while the anemones gain extra nourishment from the algae in their guts. Contrary to popular opinion, this anemone's green color is produced by the animal itself, not the algae that it eats.
Learn more
Acorn barnacle
Acorn barnacles, related to shrimp, hide their identity in snail-like shells. But they begin life as free swimming larvae. When the time comes to settle, the larvae "glue" their heads to hard surfaces, such as pilings, wharfs, ships, rocks or other hard-shelled animals.

Rocky Shore Cool Facts
Our Wave Crash gallery pumps about 600 gallons of water and "crashes" every 30 seconds. That's more than 500,000 gallons per eight-hour day.
The walk-through tunnel in the wave crash exhibit is one of the most popular family photo spots in the Aquarium—timing your shot is part of the fun.
Galleries within the Rocky Shore get raw seawater at night; during the day, the water is filtered to provide a clearer view.
The concept of intertidal "zones" was first described by Monterey biologist Ed Ricketts in his landmark book,
Between Pacific Tides
, which also influenced the design and layout of the entire Aquarium.

WikiLeaks: Whistleblowing or Treason?
The Obama administration used bribes of up to $30 billion in foreign aid and spying by the CIA to force underdeveloped nations to agree to the Copenhagen summit documents, according to the WikiLeaks documents analyzed by the London Guardian. The documents, the Guardian summarized December 3, revealed that "money and threats buy political support; spying and cyberwarfare are used to seek out leverage."
WikiLeaks Releases U.S. Diplomatic Cables
The Internet-based watchdog site WikiLeaks began releasing more than 250,000 U.S. diplomatic cables in batches beginning November 28, earning the condemnation of the Obama administration and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. The documents, which include frank assessments of foreign political officials, have already embarrassed U.S. diplomats to a variety of countries.
WikiLeaks Releases Nearly 400,000 Classified Iraq War Documents
On October 22 the Internet-based whistleblower organization WikiLeaks published some 391,000 classified U.S. military documents on the Iraq War. WikiLeaks alleges the documents prove that the U.S. government continued to look the other way to Iraqi government torture through the end of the first year of the Obama administration and that civilian casualties in the Iraq war were much higher than publicly documented.
Obama Claims End to "Combat Operations" in Iraq
President Barack Obama claimed August 31 in an Oval Office address to the nation that "tonight, I am announcing that the American combat mission in Iraq has ended. Operation Iraqi Freedom is over, and the Iraqi people now have lead responsibility for the security of their country."
First U.S. Soldier Killed in Iraq Since "Withdrawal" of Combat Troops
The first U.S. soldier in Iraq has been killed since the withdrawal of the last "combat" brigade from the country on August 18, according to the Manchester (UK) Guardian. The death demonstrates that Americans will continue to fight and die in Iraq even though President Obama publicly announced "combat operations" have officially ended. The soldier was reportedly killed in a mortar attack on a U.S. air base in Basra, and the Pentagon has not yet released the name of the deceased. The Pentagon estimates that 52,000 U.S. Army soldiers and Marines remain in Iraq.
Obama Claims "End" of Combat Operations in Iraq (Sort of)
President Barack Obama announced "America's combat mission in Iraq would end" in an August 2 address to the Disabled American Veterans, but the details of the announcement have revealed that American soldiers will continue to fight and die in Iraq for at least another 18 months, if not longer.
Alleged Wikileaks Source Bradley Manning Arrested
Federal officials charged the alleged source for the April Wikileaks video that exposed U.S. helicopter gunners committing war crimes in Baghdad in 2007, Pfc. Bradley Manning, with a variety of charges July 5. The New York Times reported that Manning has also been "charged with downloading more than 150,000 highly classified diplomatic cables that could, if made public, reveal the inner workings of American embassies around the world, the military here announced on Tuesday."
Obama Proposes Supplementing Afghan/Iraq Soldiers With Social Workers
President Obama renewed his call for a "Civilian Expeditionary Workforce" to supplement the efforts of soldiers in U.S. war-zones in Iraq and Afghanistan in a June 30, 2010 town meeting in Racine, Wisconsin. "So the military goes in there, they clear out everything, they're making everything secure — and now the question is, all right, can we get the civilians to come in to work with the local governments to improve the situation. And a lot of times, that civilian side of it has been under-resourced."
Dozens of U.S. Citizens May Be on Obama Assassination List
The Washington Times reported June 24 that dozens of U.S. citizen may be targets for assassination by the Obama administration. "There are, in my mind, dozens of U.S. persons who are in different parts of the world, and they are very concerning to us," John O. Brennan, Deputy White House National Security Adviser for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism, told the Washington Times June 24.
CFR Gen. Petraeus Replaces CFR Gen. McChrystal
President Obama announced June 23 that he had "accepted the resignation" of Afghanistan theater commander Gen. Stanley McChrystal and will replace him with Gen. David Petraeus, who commanded the Bush-era "surge" in Iraq. The resignation was forced, essentially Washington-speak for "firing," and a direct result of an interview McChrystal and his staff gave to Rolling Stone magazine. In that interview, McCrystal criticized President Obama as "unprepared" for their first meeting, said that U.S. Ambassador to Afghanistan Karl Eikenberry had "betrayed" him, and generally ridiculed Vice President Joe Biden.

IT merges with renewable energy: Rifkin
By Do Je-hae President Lee Myung-bak's "low carbon, green growth" campaign is one of his main legacies, regardless of how much the campaign has actually reduced the country's massive dependence on carbon-based fuel. The Lee administration has embraced green growth, centered on the usage of natural resources in a sustainable manner, as a core national strategy model. New institutions and forums have been established, with the media stirring up hype about Korea's drive toward becoming an "Asian leader in green economy." "This government has made a commitment for green growth. I do believe the president and cabinet ministers ― I've met some of them ― they are serious," said U.S. economist Jeremy Rifkin during a press conference in Seoul, Wednesday. "Now you've got to go from just wanting it and running little projects to actually creating an entire infrastructure across Korea." Rifkin urged Korean policymakers to "move quickly to an economic plan" for a transition to what he calls a "third industrial revolution," a merge of Internet technology and renewable energy (wind, rain, sunlight, tides and geothermal). He was in Korea this week to publicize his latest book and attend the Global Green Growth Summit 2012. The Korean version of the book "The Third Industrial Revolution: How Lateral Power Is Transforming Energy, the Economy, and the World" was released here this week. The original version was released in 2011 has had been a New York Times best-seller. This concept of a new industrial revolution stems from concerns that the current global economy, powered by oil and other fossil fuels, is spiraling into a dangerous endgame. The prices of gas and food are climbing, unemployment remains high, the housing market has tanked, consumer and government debt is soaring, and the economic recovery is slowing. At the same time, there are the daunting challenges of climate change. In this book, Rifkin explores how Internet technology and renewable energy are merging to create a powerful "third industrial revolution." Rifkin describes how this will create thousands of businesses, millions of jobs, and usher in a fundamental reordering of human relationships, from hierarchical to lateral power, that will impact the way we conduct commerce. The five pillars of the revolution are: shifting to renewable energy; using buildings as natural power plants; the launching of hydrogen to store intermittent energy; creating energy by sharing a power grid through using the Internet; and introducing electrically powered cars. "The first and second industrial revolutions scaled vertically because they needed centralized communications. So you had to have centralized factories, centralized logistics, and centralized supply chain. It favored national markets and national governments," Rifkin explained. "But the third industrial revolution scales laterally and it wants continental markets. It comes in like Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi doesn't respect borders." Rifkin said that Korea has the resources to become a leader in the third industrial revolution, such as abundant renewable energy, world-class industries and IT infrastructure. "Korea has much better solar radiance than Germany. It has a huge wind potential because it is a peninsula. You have a huge tidal and ocean energy. You have world-class industries, shipping and construction industries here. You have the world-class IT and electronics here. You have world-class transport companies here," he said. Rifkin's vision has been gaining traction in the international community. The European Union Parliament has issued a formal declaration calling for its implementation, and other nations in Asia, Africa, and the Americas are quickly preparing their own initiatives for transitioning into the new economic paradigm. Rifkin is the best-selling author of "The European Dream," "The Hydrogen Economy," "The Age of Access," "The Biotech Century," and "The End of Work." A fellow at the Wharton School's Executive Education Program and an adviser to several European Union heads of state, he is the president of the Foundation on Economic Trends in Bethesda, Md. Since 1994, he has been a senior lecturer at the Wharton School's Executive Education Program at the University of Pennsylvania. He also serves as chairman of the Global CEO Business Roundtable, which includes IBM, Cisco and Cushman and Wakefield, and has served as an adviser to various global leaders, including Nicolas Sarkozy of France and Angela Merkel of Germany. |

YouTube Tricks & Cool Mashups
By Drew Burks
It's 11:30 p.m. as I'm writing this, my baby boy is finally sleeping, and all is quiet… and I just remember that I promised to submit a this blog post for YPN tomorrow.
I must admit, I am feeling a bit panicked… you know that feeling of being behind, with time running out quickly. I have one concern as time ticks by quicker and quicker, what am I going to possibly write about that can add value to our readers at the last minute?
So I figured I would surf the internet to see what I could find. I rarely surf the internet, but I just spent the last 15-20 minutes doing so and I found some pretty cool stuff that I found interesting and some even helpful. So allow me to share:
Three YouTube Tricks
1. Cut to the chase & link directly to the relevant part of a video.
Have you ever found a video on YouTube that has something cool or funny you would like to share, but hate that you have to watch the first 4:10 minutes before you get to the part? With this simple trick you can link people to the specific point in the video so they don't get bored during the first few minutes. You can send them a link and have the video start at 04:10? All you have to do is add #t=04m10s (#t=XXmYYs for XX mins and YY seconds) to the end of the URL.
2. Autoplay an embedded video.
Normally, when you embed a YouTube video, the player is loaded and sits there waiting for the play button to be pressed. You can make the video play automatically by adding '&autoplay=1′ to the url part of the embed code. Continue reading »

1964 Mercury Montclair, with the optional Marauder package. A stupid (or brilliant) marketing decision means that this badge could signify something as little as the beautiful fastback roof option instead of the roll-down rear window version.
On the bright side, it could mean this salmon colored tank has the 427 V8, 4 Speed Manual transmission, and rear locking differential. Oh well, I don't own it and can't drive it so I really don't care. It looks beautiful though.
