Remote Tools that Can Help You Save Gas (RedmondMag)
There was a book published last year entitled "Muzzle the Guzzle: 50 Fuel Saving Strategies" (I-Form Ink Publishing, 2007) containing 50 gas-saving tips and tricks intended to save you money on gas — something we sorely need right now. In chatting with various network administrators and consultants who drive to work, it appears that many are also taking whatever measures they can to save a little money.
Office Goes Online…Sort Of (Redmond Channel Partner)
Finally! Microsoft Office is going Live…for real this time. Microsoft announced this week at the PDC in L.A. that there will be browser-based versions of Word, Excel and PowerPoint, with a beta probably available sometime in 2009. But let's read the fine print from the CNET article linked above:
Windows 7 Management Features Will Make IT Admins Grin (Ars Technica)
Throughout this week's Professional Developers Conference, Microsoft has been demonstrating a number of new features designed to make the lives of IT types easier. Shanen Boettcher, General Manager of Windows Product Management for the enterprise, demonstrated some of these features at a Windows 7 press briefing, and we've had the chance to look at some of them ourselves. Microsoft's demo focused primarily on security, mobile access and deployment/troubleshooting, and there was some really interesting stuff there. Here are a few of the features we find compelling:
Microsoft's Server Stack Gets Higher (eWeek)
News Analysis. Azure Services Platform is little more than vaporware, which is perhaps appropriate for Microsoft's cloud operating system. But what happens when the vapor forms into a cloud? I had a freaky deja vu experience during Monday's Professional Developers Conference keynote. Suddenly PDC 2008 felt oh-so PDC 2003, and that's not a good thing. I came out of the PDC 2003 keynotes realizing that Windows Longhorn—what would later become Vista—was little more than vaporware. Except for what would be later called Windows Communications Foundation and Windows Presentation Foundation, Longhorn felt light on substance.
Microsoft Drops More New Codenames, Including Another 'Mojave' (ZDNet)
Microsoft used this week's Professional Developers Conference to flesh out a bunch of codenames that had been circulating for the past several months — everything from "Red Dog," to "Geneva," to "Zurich." At the Los Angeles confab, the company also introduced a few brand-new codenames.
Should Enterprises Reconsider the Cloud? (PCWorld)
With support for three of the major pillars of application development and deployment — Oracle 11g, Microsoft SQL, and open source MySQL — under its belt, Amazon.com appears to be anticipating a major move by the enterprise into the cloud.
With Windows 7, Can Microsoft Lift the Vista Hex? (Tech News World)
Developers got a sneak peek at a pre-beta version of Windows 7 Tuesday. The upcoming operating system is scheduled to be finalized in 2010. Rather than a complete overhaul, the OS attempts to address some specific criticisms leveled against Vista since its introduction last year.
Ozzie Points to Slimmer Future for Windows Client (PCWorld)
Microsoft is putting the Windows client OS on a diet as a way to bring the PC OS into the age of cloud computing. Windows 7, Vista's follow-up, already will be a thinner, more streamlined OS, replacing some of the software Microsoft previously included with the OS with Web-based Windows Live Services. And if comments made by Chief Software Architect Ray Ozzie at Microsoft's Professional Developers Conference (PDC) this week are any indication, Windows will slim down even further in the future, returning to the original intent of an OS — a way to optimize the hardware it runs on — instead of being a bloated piece of software whose performance and value rely on compatibility with installed applications.
How Will You Make Money in the Cloud? (Redmond Channel Partner)
It's getting serious now, this cloud computing stuff. It's not just the up-and-coming vendors or the Web-era giants (think Google and Amazon) that are offering some sort of Software-as-a-Service model. Oh, no. As of this week, there's an old-school player in this game in a serious way: Microsoft.

SharePoint – Content Types 'Out of This World' (Andy Dale officetalk)
Officetalk have SharePoint customers all over the UK and as one of their consultants I am often visiting clients in some quite remote parts. This week I have been working in the Orkney Islands with one of the Councils we support. The Island of Kirkwell is a lovely area and in daylight has many spectacular views, but in October when it is dark by 6pm and usually raining it isn't the most lively of places. So with five nights on my own to fill I decided to start watching my 'Life on Mars' Series One DVD box set.
PDC 2008 – Day 3 (Andrew Connell)
I kicked off Wednesday (day 3) at PDC with Spence hanging with Fitz & Steve from Nintext. Fitz took the time to show me Nintex Reporting & Nintex Workflow… two very slick products. If you're looking for a reporting solution for your SharePoint farm (specifically getting a pulse on your deployment), you need to check it out. As for workflow… one word: WOW. I'm VERY impressed. If you're looking for a slick workflow solution for users that provides more control and power than SharePoint Designer, but not involve developers like Visual Studio 2008, this is for you. Thanks for taking the time to show me these two apps guys… looking forward to repaying the favor!
PDC 2008 – Day 4 (Andrew Connell)
Ah… here I sit in the food court area where all the power is writing this last recap post, hanging with fellow SharePoint MVPs Spence, Andrew & Ben (only a few of us made it to this show). Kicked off the day with a session on REST & WCF where they announced the WCF REST Starter Kit.

It also provides valuable reporting capability. The critical conditions that the SharePoint Management Pack monitors are summarized in the following reports that can be easily viewed through the System Center reporting console. Rules can be defined to alter how and when data is gathered, influencing the contents of these reports.
Microsoft's Silverlight to Get Adaptive Streaming Boost from Akamai (Engadget HD)
Microsoft is hoping to spread the HD to more than its Xbox 360, and has partnered up with Akamai to demo its latest combination of technologies that will send 720p content smoothly over the internet. A beta release of the Silverlight player plus Akamai's AdaptiveEdge Streaming will debut in early 2009, but the aim is as old as the hills — deliver smooth (or at least, smoothly degrading) HD video to internet viewers with standard web servers, as opposed to dedicated video streaming servers.
SharePoint Horror Stories (The Bamboo Team Blog)
A while back, our friend Andy Dale at OfficeTalk wrote an interesting post in the Bamboo Nation Forums entitled SharePoint Projects Can Fail. It wasn't the first time I had heard these words of caution, and it wouldn't be the last. Just a few weeks ago, Paul Culmsee at Seven Sigma wrote a voluminous five part blog post entitled, Why Do SharePoint Projects Fail? Paul is a very entertaining writer and I recommend that series in particular. I've also heard this phrase repeatedly at tradeshows and conferences… typically as a scare tactic warm up for a talk on deployment planning or governance.
Adding a New Item to a SharePoint Calendar (SharePoint Blank)
Having learned how to create a new SharePoint calendar yesterday, we left off with the realization that we were only part of the way towards answering a related question regarding Meeting Workspaces. Today, we're going to look at the next phase of my investigation, which involves adding a recurring event to the newly created calendar, and inserting a hook into that event which will associate it with a Meeting Workspace.

To embed, copy and paste the code into your website or blog:
When registered in accordance with the Alberta Builders' Lien Act (BLA), a builders' lien provides security for unpaid contractors, labourers and suppliers who have "improved" lands. This includes those providing materials or services in connection with the recovery of a mineral on an oil and gas well site.
While builders' liens are commonly registered against surface title at the Land Titles Office (ALTO), the Alberta Land Titles Act prohibits the registration of a lien against mineral titles at the ALTO when the Crown is the owner of that mineral. Furthermore, the BLA provides that a lien on a mineral lease is to be registered with the Minister of Energy. Accordingly, with the Crown owning approximately 81 percent of all mineral rights in Alberta, most mineral liens will be registered with the Minister of Energy. Unfortunately, for those providing services or materials on oil and gas well sites, a lien registered with the Minister of Energy may not provide the same level of security as a lien registered with the ALTO.
As a creature of statute, a builders' lien must strictly comply with the BLA and there are specific provisions in the BLA that deal with liens on oil and gas wells and well sites. In particular, section 6(2) of the BLA allows a lien to be registered for the value of the work actually done and materials actually furnished if a party has worked or furnished materials:
As mineral rights are often shared between different owners, identifying the various interests and estates can be a complicated task. However, the BLA allows lien-holders to avoid some of these issues. In particular, section 6(2) confirms that a lien in this section attaches to all "estates and interests" in the "mineral", other than the estate in fee simple in the "mines and minerals". This applies even if a person who holds a particular estate or interest in the mineral has not requested the work or materials. However, if the person holding the estate in fee simple in the mines and minerals expressly requested the work or materials, the lien also attaches to the estate in fee simple in the mines and minerals.
Section 6(3) of the BLA confirms that a lien attaches to an estate or interest in mines and minerals when they are in situ (i.e., while still "in the ground"), as well as attaching to the minerals once they have been severed from the land.
Generally speaking, a party has 45 days to register a lien on a "conventional" construction site and 90 days to register a lien against a mineral interest on an oil and gas well or well site. This clock starts to run either from the date that the last materials or services are provided or from the date the contract was abandoned.
It is important to note that the terms "oil and gas well" or "oil and gas well site" are not defined in the BLA. Accordingly, it may be prudent to apply a 45-day deadline when dealing with operations that may not be considered "traditional" oil and gas wells (e.g., SAGD wells).
To avoid the expiry of a registered lien, a lien-holder must also register a certificate of lis pendens at the ALTO and commence an action (i.e., sue) within 180 days from the date the lien is registered.
While the BLA expressly provides that a lien attaches to oil and gas interests both in the ground and once severed, a purchaser of oil and gas production may be unaware that the production is subject to a lien. Furthermore, in the 1988 Alberta Court of Queen's Bench decision in Halliburton Services Ltd v Snowhawk Energy Inc, Justice Forsyth confirmed that a builders' lien does not attach to the sale proceeds from the sale of a mineral, describing this as "an unwarranted extension of the law" (1988 Canlii 3433 (ABQB)). Accordingly, a lien on oil and gas interests may do little to discourage an owner from selling its oil and gas prior to the lien-holder obtaining a judgment at trial. This also creates the risk that a well could be "drained" before the lien-holder has obtained a judgment, leaving the lien-holder with no security whatsoever.
However, section 54 of the BLA provides a lien-holder with two options to protect its lien. First, a lien-holder can apply to the Court for the appointment of a receiver of the rents and profits from sale. Second, a lien-holder can apply for the appointment of a trustee who has the power to manage or sell the property under the Court's supervision. The net proceeds of any receivership, or of any sale made by a trustee, are then paid into Court and become subject to the claims of all lien-holders, mortgagees and other parties interested in the property. The factors a court are likely to consider when determining whether to appoint a receiver or trustee include the lien-holder's risk of loss if no order is made, the cost, the length of time that a receiver or trustee may be in place and the balance of convenience to the parties.
It is important for anyone with a lien registered against mineral interests to recognize that registration of a lien may do little to prevent the loss of security. Accordingly, legal counsel should be consulted to ensure that proactive steps are taken to protect that security.

Looking for a way to share music with your friends, want to see what they're listening to and chat about it at the same time, within the same application, with Soundtracker you can do all of that.
Soundtracker is a free music service that blends Internet radio, social networking and location-awareness.
- Listen to more than 22 million songs
- Create and share personal radio stations
- Play music with your friends in real time
- Find music playing near you
- Connect with your friends through a built-in chat feature
Once installed you have the option of using your Facebook, Twitter or Soundtracker profile to log in (I spoke with the developer and they plan on adding the new Google+ sign in very soon). The nice thing about this is you can install it on your phone and tablet, which you can take with you your stations wherever you go.
Now let's breakdown down the different features here:
My Stations:
This is where you can create as many personalized stations you want, just type in any artists name and you'll see everything that matches that artist, then you have the option to show your location. For instance, I searched for Rainbow, I got eight results. I picked the one I wanted and then I have the choice to let others in my area know that I'm listening to the particular artist and I can share that info on my social networks.
Trending Stations:
There's more music here then you'll be able to listen to in a month. I tried to scroll through them but there were too many to choose from. This would be great if you have friends over and each person has their own taste in music.
Nearby Stations:
This is where you find out who's listening to what in your neighborhood. I didn't have to enter any info and the app pulled up my location and showed me 20 nearby stations. It was off by a few blocks, but I could still see my street on the map.
Friends Stations:
This is where you have to get your friends involved and have them share their stations so you can listen to their channels when you want. The app will also suggest friends based on your music selections and I haven't been spammed once with any of their suggestions yet, so it's nothing to worry about.
If there's any announcements about the app or certain music, you'll get a message. I've only seen 1 message from the developer where he was recommending a station.
Soundtracker has some other features built-in, you'll be able to check out the lyrics of 6 million songs powered by MusixMatch.com with more being added on a regular basis. You'll also be able to see your favorite bands gigs provided by SongKick.com
So for the good part of the day I have been comparing Soundtracker to Pandora, and i gotta say that I heard more of a selection on Soundtracker. One of my favorite artists is Steely Dan. On Pandora, I would hear a couple of Steely songs and then the same songs I hear on the radio everyday. But on Soundtracker, I would hear Steely, solo Donald Fagan, Michael McDonald. The same thing with Rush. I'd hear a Rush song then it went right into a song by Geddy Lee, no top ten overplayed songs here. The same rules apply with Soundtracker as the other radio apps, you can only skip so many songs before you get that pop-up saying there's a limit, there's no ads, no emails asking you to go with the Pro version for more of a mix. You can listen to Soundtracker anywhere you are, Google TV, tab, phone, and the browser.
Now that Pandora has announced they plan to limit mobile users to 40 hours of free streaming per month, it's a good time to try Soundtracker Radio.

"This announcement was perfect for our boy/girl twins. I love how it allows for a picture of each child plus one of them together, then another photo on the back. The blue and pink ink was distinct and the quality of the card was excellent. I highly recommend this product."
"The card is absolutely gorgeous! Also, the paper it is printed on is really nice. I've gotten so many compliments. I ordered the card with the rounded edges."
"I love how this card turned out! It is great for really featuring the photo with few distractions. I added rounded corners which looked great. By the way, I used this card for a child's birthday party inviation instead of an announcement."
"Beautiful announcement, great quality and excellent customer service!!! Also, very fast delivery. I would highly recommend and also plan on purchasing from Tiny Prints for any future needs!!"

Archive for the 'Buick Heritage Alliance' tag
Buick historian and former GM employee Terry Dunham remembered
Terry B. Dunham, perhaps best known among many collector car enthusiasts for his highly regarded book The Buick: A Complete History, which he co-authored with Lawrence R. Gustin, recently died at the age of 72. What many may not realize was that his contributions to the Buick community, and to General Motors, was far more substantial.
Born on June 22, 1940, in Howell, Michigan, Dunham graduated from Western Michigan University in 1963 with a major in automotive engineering technology. That same year he began his employment in the sales and service operations of General Motors' Pontiac Motor Division, even though he'd had a deep fondness for Buicks since the late Fifties. Having already begun to amass a collection of Buick material, Dunham became an active member of the Buick Club of America when it was founded in 1966 (later serving as president of the club's Northern California chapter). Also at this time – and still employed by GM – he began conducting interviews with active and retired engineers, designers, executives, dealers and others who had a role in Buick's history, recording each narrative on tape that would later serve as a valuable resource.
Dunham, along with his wife, Jeanne, helped organize the first BCA National Meet in Flint in 1971, where he would meet Lawrence Gustin. They quickly become good friends, and just four years later, Dunham proposed an in-depth Buick history book to Automobile Quarterly. Their combined effort resulted in the award-winning 1980 release of The Buick: A Complete History. Now regarded as the division's definitive history, it has since been updated no less than five times, the last reprint occurring in time for Buick's 100th anniversary in 2003. Other literary works include Cobwebs and Overhead Valves – an in-depth look at the often misunderstood work surrounding David Buick's first overhead valve engines – and a look back at Buick's once-proud early racing exploits called Something Wicked This Way Comes: The Buick Race Cars From Hell.
In 1992, Dunham retired from General Motors and went to work for Detroit-based Engineering Analysis, managing product liability investigations for General Motors, Ford Motor Company and Chrysler Corporation. In 1996, Dunham was elected as the BCA's vice president; he was also asked by Buick executives to return to Flint the same year. The division had just announced it was moving to Detroit and they needed Dunham's help locating and identifying historical documents stored throughout the sprawling Flint facility. Within three years and numerous round trips, Dunham, who was now living in Florida, secured thousands of documents that were then transferred to the Buick Gallery and Research Center at Flint's Sloan Museum. He later founded Automotive Research Service after developing a data base of Buick production and manufacturing information which any Buick owner could use to obtain more specific details about their car.
Dunham did not curtail his activities with the new millennium. In 2005, he was instrumental in the creation of the Buick Heritage Alliance and its website, serving on its board for several years. A charitable and educational organization, the BHA continuously seeks out and preserves Buick literature, manuals and other documents in order to provide online information for restorers, researchers and historians. A year later, the Buick Motor Company bestowed Dunham with the division's highest honor, the Buick Heritage Trophy, for his efforts in preserving and promoting Buick's heritage.
Since his death last month, the AACA, in honor of Dunham, created the Buick Heritage Alliance Award, which will be presented to the owner of an outstanding 1921-1942 Buick entered in an AACA national meet. According to Jeffrey R. Brashares, president of the BHA who worked closely with Dunham in its founding, the award was donated by the BHA "to honor its board member and former president, Terry B. Dunham, for his untiring devotion to the Alliance's educational and charitable mission, and his lifelong contributions to the preservation of Buick's history."
Pre-War Buick dealership on display at Petersen Museum
Through the efforts of the Buick Heritage Alliance, Los Angeles, California's, Petersen Automotive Museum recently unveiled a pre-war-style Buick dealership exhibit, complete with period signage. Its specific setting is 1941, a year in which many able customers took the opportunity to purchase a new car just in case the war really did reach our shores. Under the period lights of the showroom floor are three fully restored examples from Flint that model year: a Super convertible sedan finished in Monterey blue with a red leather interior (on loan from Michael Kaminsky); a Super Sport Coupe wearing period dealer accessories and Mermaid green over Cedar green paint (on loan from Carlos Wilhelm); and a Limited Formal Sedan finished in Silver French gray over Lancaster gray (on loan from David Harrison). The display will run through July 29.
Could a new Buick help raise the marque's profile among collectors?
Each year, Hagerty Insurance releases their annual "Hot List," consisting of vehicles manufactured today that are projected to become collectible classics in the future. To qualify for consideration, the parameters are rather simple: mass-market production with a sticker price below $100,000. Making the grade this year is the 2012 Buick Regal GS.
For those who have not looked at anything from the Flint automaker for some time, the new sport sedan tapped into the company's performance past by reintroducing two obvious and widely recognized badges: Regal and GS. What's more, the Buick offers a real, three-pedal (manual transmission) configuration – care to guess when a Buick owner could last exercise some spirited heel/toe shifting?
According to General Motors North America President Mark Reuss,
The Regal GS is a unique and thrilling vehicle for the Buick brand. As someone who drove a classic Skylark to the prom and owned other incredible Buicks like an '87 GNX, I can say it deserves to be viewed among the best Buick has built.
Hagerty also collaborated with Buick to produce a second top 10 list of the most collectible models from said automaker. In addition to the 2012 Regal GS, the list includes: 1932 Model 90 Sport Phaeton; 1937 Century (Model 66C) convertible coupe; 1940 Super (Model 59) Estate Wagon; 1947 Roadmaster (Model 79) Estate Wagon; 1949 Roadmaster (Model 76C) convertible; 1953 Skylark (Model 76X); 1963 Riviera; 1970 GSX Stage 1 hardtop; 1987 Regal GNX.
This new performance spark could be just the thing to help further revitalize the Buick brand as a whole, and help lower the automaker's average purchase age. The new Regal GS could have ramifications beyond the showroom floor and boardroom sales charts.
In recent years, the Buick Club of America has seen a decline in membership. While there is some debate as to the reason, Jeffrey Brashares – president of the Buick Heritage Alliance – sees a silver lining in Hagerty's announcement.
When the "mock-up" of the Tiger Woods convertible came out from Buick, I thought it would have been a cool car to build. They didn't. They were very late into the 4 x 4 production and lost sales to all other automakers, and, of course Ford led the pack. Clubs like Porsche continue to grow, because their cars appeal to all ages. Our club, the Buick Club of America, continues to decline. I am excited to see a performance sedan being built that has the "opportunity" to appeal to a younger audience, so I like the list!
As for the rest of the vehicles that made the Hagerty 2012 Hot List: Ford Mustang Boss 302 Laguna Seca Edition; Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8; Fiat 500 Abarth; Volkswagen Golf R; Porsche 911; Chevy Camaro ZL1; Nissan GT-R Black Edition; Dodge Charger SRT8; Audi TT RS.

Did you know…
The Village of Tutbury was featured on a spin-off series of 'Most Haunted' called 'Most Haunted: Midsummer Murders' where there was an investigation of a murder over hidden treasure.
Quarries near Tutbury once produced alabaster which was used in the carving of Nottingham Alabaster; the English sculpture industry which mainly focussed on small religious carvings.
Since 1472, Tutbury has been the centre of glass manufacturing. Unfortunately, dramatic increases in fuel costs have caused the last remaining factories in Tutbury to close for good.
Not including the Church or Castle, there are 32 listed buildings in Tutbury.
According to an old ballad written by the King of Fiddlers appointed by the Lord of Tutbury Castle, Tutbury played host to the wedding of Robin Hood and a woman named Clorinda.
The name 'Tutbury' derives from Anglo-Saxon times. 'Bury' means 'a fortified place' and 'tut' comes from the name of the chieftain of the time — 'Totta'. So, 'Tutbury' translates to 'Totta's Castle' and Totta is the fist recorded resident of Tutbury.
In 1831, while constructing an embankment on the River Dove, workmen found silver coins in the gravel. The further up-stream they worked the more coins they found. Eventually the whole town was searching for them. These coins are said to the payment from Thomas, Earl of Lancaster to his troops and Scottish allies after suffering an attack and defeat from his cousin, King Edward, in the early 1300s for siding with the Scotts against him. There are many rumours as to how the coins were lost.

SYRACUSE N.Y. – Peter Coluccini walked into the press room and sat down next to team co-captain John Wright. Wright looks at the stat sheet and points. Coluccini looks on. Wright smiles and pats his goalie on the arm. The day was his, and the win belonged to No.13 Syracuse, 7-5 over No.6 Princeton.
The redshirt freshman recorded 19 saves against the Tigers, allowing just single-digit goals for the second time in two games. Just when people thought it could get no better, (Coluccini's save percentage against Loyola was 71%) it did. Against Princeton (5-3) he tallied a save percentage of 79%.
As Coluccini walked into the pressroom, he sat down and took off his gear, revealing a Superman t-shirt underneath. That actually didn't happen. Coluccini already had his gear off, donning a plain green shirt, but if it had happened, nobody would have been surprised. That was the atmosphere in the room. Smiles all around, with head coach John Desko in the joking mood.
"I don't know if anybody noticed that we kept moving the goal with the bigger pipes to our defensive end of the field, and moving the one with the smaller pipes to the other end of the field," Desko said. He paused, and as the next question was asked, he intervened. "That was a funny." The room laughed with him.
But in all seriousness, Dekso was extremely impressed with his young goalie.
"I thought Peter did a terrific job," Desko said. "He had really good position in goal…He did a really great job reacting, seeing the ball very well. I thought he got to the ball very quickly…just as they (Princeton) were winding up to shoot, he was moving his stick to where he thought it was going."
But Coluccini's performance wasn't just your average 19 saves. It was numerous goals scored that he ripped from the clutches of the Tigers. At one point the SU keeper blocked three consecutive shots in a span of seconds, and time after time, came away with point blank attempts, like it was second nature.
"I have no clue how I made all those saves," Coluccini said. "In the heat of the moment you just react to the shots."
Coluccini wasn't the only one playing defense. The defense did a pretty good job too, again, holding its second straight opponent to single-digits. After the game Wright said the team doesn't want to play with its backs against the wall. He explained that fellow defenseman Steve Panarelli said 'Don't play like you have to win – Play like you want to win.' That, he believes, was a key to the victory.
Offensively, Syracuse (3-4) put together one of the best games Princeton had seen all season. This was a Tiger team that earlier in the year defeated defending national champion Johns Hopkins 6-4. Coluccini's counterpart, Alex Hewitt, had a save percentage of 68%, giving up just over five goals a game. But against SU, his save percentage fell to a still respectable 56.3%. That number is often good enough to win ballgames. But it wasn't on this day.
At the half, things went as expected. The score was just 2-1, with SU on top. Joe Yevoli got things started just over two minutes in. Working on the outside and rolling around his defender to face the net, he fired a shot just as he saw the cage and landed the ball in the far bottom corner.
Princeton tied it up at the 4:12 mark of the first quarter when freshman Tommy Davis was found by Tewaarton candidate Scott Sowanick moving across the front of the net and past it. Davis shot off his back foot and past Coluccini.
The 'Cuse would have the last laugh of the first half, when, with 13:35 to play, Dan Hardy cut through several defenders and launced a shot into Hewitt's breadbasket. The goalie kicked out the rebound, picked up by Mike Leveille and put into the cage.
The Orange would add three goals to its 2-1 lead as the third quarter began. Hardy would record his first assist of the game, as he tossed the ball across the net to Brett Bucktooth on the near side. Bucktooth then finished the play for his tenth goal of the year.
A minute later, Panarelli, milliseconds from being shellacked from behind, threw a pass to leaping John Carrozza on top of the box. Upon touching his feet to the ground, he fired a rocket into the top of the Princeton cage. That goal came with 11:30 to play.
The frustration in Tiger players became evident after Brian Crockett cranked his 101st from 15 yards away. Princeton's Zachary Jungers slammed his long-pole into the Carrier Dome turf, hanging his head in disgust.
Whitney Hayes would end the third on a high note, beating Coluccini with 1:17 to play and pulling Princeton back within three, 5-2. The play took the 'Cuse goalie out of the net for the remainder of the quarter. No word on what happened to the goalie, but Jake Myers made one great save in his spot. Coluccini returned for the rest of the game.
With just under five minutes into the fourth, Leveille pulled off an old trick from high school. Guarding tightly on the inbound, the sophomore came up with the Tigers' ball and found Bucktooth in front of the net. The problem for Princeton was that while Bucktooth was in front of the goal, Hewitt was not. It was an easy empty netter, and the crowd erupted.
That put SU up 6-2. It would go up 7-3 when Leveille hit Bucktooth again. The native Onondagan was wide open after Panarelli led the Orange on the break. The long-pole ran into the far corner and dished off to Leveille. He eventually found the senior captain.
The Tigers tacked on two final goals late to finalize things at 7-5.
"There's nobody who respects Syracuse more than I do," said Tiger head coach Bill Tierney. "The kids love to play lacrosse, and they do what they have to do…they did what they had to do. We didn't."
Syracuse did what it had to do. It changed how it played. The "fun and gun," high octane offense turned into a patient one for the Orange. SU became patient. It worked the ball and found the open look, doing its best to play around Princeton's stingy defense.
"When we play this team, we normally see scores being lower for both teams, at least for our team," Desko said. "We expect that kind of game, and we have to take advantage of our opportunities."
By the way, two-time Tewaarton winner Mikey Powell was in attendance. The Orange is now 2-0 with the former attack looking on. Desko said a ticket will be left for him as the 'Cuse takes on Cornell at 7pm Tuesday.

How does the Gnat stove performance compare to the Soto OD-1R Micro Regulator Stove in terms of maintaining consistent output in cold weather? Although many stoves may seem alike, the Soto appears to have an edge in performance as temp drops and as fuel runs out, i.e., the Soto output is the same across the spectrum.
"the expedition-conscious ultralighter can turn down the fuel power and eke out thirty-six to forty boils (at 12 oz/boil) without much difficulty" What sort of altitude are we talking about here? I imagine there's quite a large variation in how long a canister lasts between say 10000 feet and sea level.
> I imagine there's quite a large variation in how long a canister lasts> between say 10000 feet and sea level.No, altitude will have very little direct effect on the life of a canister. The canister supplies energy, and how much energy is in the canister is unrelated to altitude.However, because the ambient temperature drops as you go up in altitude, you will find yourself using a little more fuel to get water up to 80 C. On the other hand, water boils at a lower temperature at higher altitudes, so you will need a little less fuel to go from 80 C to boiling. Ho hum ... :-)Anyhow, most of that is irrelevant. What really influences practical fuel consumption is wind, use-of-windscreen, heating rate, lid-on-pot, and other things like that. They are far more significant, to the point of being totally dominant.Cheers
The Snow Peak Giga weighs 3 oz., but that includes the "ignitor". You have to weigh in whatever it is you use to light the Gnat stove.
Edited by rambler on 07/06/2010 22:04:39 MDT.
not really, ignitors fail so frecuently that you MUST to carry one lighter anyway
Agree with Carlos. You still have to carry a lighter/matches. We had a jetboil piezo ignition fail this past weekend in the Pecos Wilderness.
I have never purchased a piezo ignitor stove, preferring to use a mini lightmyfire striker instead, which can also be used to start a "fire" in the old fashioned way as well.
No one has said anything about the corrosion resistance of titanium. Is the burner itself titanium? How does it look after it's been fired a few times? I've seen used non-titanium stoves of similar type for sale (ebay) and the burner is all rusted. May still work okay, but aesthetics are important too. Charred, rusty stoves are ugly. If this stove avoids that, it should score points.On the other hand, some parts are aluminum, how well do these parts hold up?
When first lit, my Gnat burns a blue flame, but after 30 seconds it turns orange.Anyone else experience this?Does it matter?
As a general rule, if the flame color is different from what you expect, then there is a problem of some sort. If the flame is supposed to be blue-hot and it is only orange-hot, then that suggests a "breathing" problem, like if the cold air intake is clogged with foreign material. It is possible that the fuel is contaminated with something, but with a butane canister stove, that would be very unlikely. It is possible that there is some foreign contamination in the top of the burner, like spilled food. The top of the burner is normally titanium or stainless, so it does not corrode even after serious heat. Those metals might change color slightly, but that is normal.--B.G.--
BobThe same canister wth a different stove is fine, so not fuel contamination.I took the burner apart to look inside. The burner is titanium with a fine mesh (presumably stainless steel) inside. No dirt. The jet looked ok although I didn't remove it as I may want to return the stove.The flame starts off blue as I would expect, but turns orange once the stove has heated up, about 30 sec
On most of these stoves, the cold air intake is a pair of open holes on the sides and between the fuel port screw and the burner. Did you poke around in there? One tiny bit of leaf could really clog things this way.--B.G.--
BobThis stove is brand new, fresh out the box.There is no accumulated dirt and no obvious bits of swarf anywhere I can see.
Hi StuartSame problem as we discussed before.But I don't think mine does that ... what happens when you turn the power up?cheers
Hi RogerSimilar problem as previously discussed - *some* part of the burner must be getting too hot.The only part glowing visibly are the pot supports. However, the 'windscreen' on a Pocket Rocket also glows but doesn't result in an orange flame, so I don't think that is the problem.So, it must be something inside the burner? I had a quick look and saw nothing obviously wrong, but I'll take another look.The power is already quite high in the photo, turning it right up doesn't make much difference.I didn't see any video reviews of this stove showing this problem, it must be just me :-(
Stuart,I found this in a gear review of the Gnat on Backpacker.com. >>Two tips: 1) Don't forget to pack your own windscreen because the burner is very susceptible to breezes, and 2) Screw the canister on tight. (I noticed a big difference in output between a lightly screwed on and a cranked on canister.)<<How close is the aluminum control valve housing to the "rim" of your fuel cannister? Does it contact the rim of the cannister as you are attatching the stove to the cannister?The change in the color of the flame suggests to me a change in the air fuel ratio. Is it possible your are going to a "lean" mixture of air and fuel due to the fuel cannister not being firmly attached and fully open at the self sealing cannister valve?Compare the parts of the two stoves that connect to the cannister. Is the part of the Gnat that opens the self sealing valve on the cannister clean and able to fully open the self sealing cannister valve?Looking at pictures of the Pocket Rocket stove I notice a seal of some sort between the stove assembly and the fuel cannister. Is it possible that the Gnat is "drafting" excess air into the fuel mixture at the cannister / stove connection?I am very interested in this thread as I am contemplating the purchase of a Gnat/Fire Maple stove myself.Party On,Newton
John"How close is the aluminum control valve housing to the "rim" of your fuel cannister?"Gas starts to come out of the canister when the clearance from the control valve housing (the orange bit) to the canister rim is 0.3 - 0.4mm for two different canisters.The stove then screws on for a further 0.3mm without excessive force.I think the seal between canister and stove is good. In any case, a bad seal here would result in gas leaking out, not air leaking in.I took the stove apart again and had a good look, but still didn't notice anything obviously wrong.Ho hum
Stuart,Are all other parts of the stove above the orange "valve bit" assembled tightly before and after the testing? Excess air in the mixture?Can there be anything blocking the flow of gas to the jet/burner? Pressure of the fuel being delivered to the burner reduced? A part of the cannister seal?Is there anything that can be causing a catalytic reaction of the flame where you are testing the stove? The color change?Party On,Newton
Hi StuartOK, I got mine out and fired it up. It started out with a blue flame as should be, but as the middle of the Ti pot supports bits got red hot it gradually developed the orange colour you showed.Diagnosis:The red-hot metal at the burner face is causing a change in the chemistry of the flame, with atomic carbon being generated too early for combustion. The carbon atoms are glowing in the flame as the hydrogen is being burnt first. I think most of the carbon does get burnt up higher up. This does not (normally) happen with other stoves when there are no red-hot bits in the flame.So ... I took the pot supports off and tried the stove again. It lasted longer before getting an orange flame, but the top of the burner face did slowly get red-hot, and then the orange glow returned.I note that this burner has a double layer of mesh under the Ti burner face. That should stop it from getting any flash-back or internal ignition, and the inner layer is unlikely to get as hot. Field testing has not shown any problems of flash-back either.You can 'improve' the performance (ie reduce the orange glow) by *restricting* the inwards air flow. This makes the flames just a little longer, so they don't heat the burner face as much. The heat is higher up or further away. Blocking one air inlet hole may be enough.However, as I said, field testing has not shown any problem with this burner, so you could just ignore the problem ***in my humble opinion***.CheersRoger
Does it make a difference when there is a pot of water on it heating up? Perhaps the stove will not have a chance to develop much of the orange flame if a pot is on top and the stove is switched off after boiling. That is, perhaps field use will prove to be less enigmatic.

Romanian PM Warns Anti-austerity Riots May Destabilize Country
Posted By kurtnimmo On January 16, 2012 @ 7:34 am In Global Crisis,Old Infowars Posts Style,Tile | Comments Disabled
January 16, 2012
Emil Boc, Romania's prime minister, has warned that violent reaction to austerity measures may take down the country. From the Boston Globe:
Romania's prime minister warned Monday that violent protests that left 59 injured over the weekend could jeopardize the country's stability and chances for economic growth.
Some of the around 1,000 protesters clashed with police in downtown Bucharest Sunday, after four days of demonstrations against the government's austerity measures turned violent. Police used tear gas and flares to repel demonstrators hurling stones and firebombs.
The riots erupted after the government imposed state job and wage cuts and a value-added tax hike under an IMF bailout scheme. In 2009, Romania took a two-year 20 billion euro ($27.5 billion) loan from the International Monetary Fund, the European Union and the World Bank.
The country is now experiencing a classic "IMF riot" as a result:

All gardens can serve as launch pads for amplifying community engagement on climate change.
A diverse panel will share rich resources, rationale, strategies, and lessons learned to help shape institutional commitment to the critical issue of climate change. Since climate change now informs much of what we do in gardens, it is natural, perhaps even expected, that they frame and engage to improve public understanding of this crucial issue. Panelists will also answer questions and encourage audience sharing of any novel, related efforts.
Presenters: Caroline Lewis, CLEO Institute; Tamara Houston, NOAA's National Climatic Data Center; Wilf Nicholls, State Botanical Garden of Georgia; Casey Sclar, APGA/Longwood Gardens

Where conservation goals and horticulture expertise overlap—that is unique to botanic gardens
Many kinds of organizations work in conservation, but few have the capacity or skill to grow plants. Mr. Griffith will discuss an innovative botanic garden / industry partnership to distribute seed. Based on the results of that partnership, an analysis will be shared on how supply and demand relate to rare plant availability and conservation. This case study demonstrates how horticulture is an essential part of plant conservation programs, and how botanic gardens are uniquely suited for conservation horticulture work.
Presenter: Patrick Griffith, Montgomery Botanical Center
Living collections are an enormous asset to our gardens, the scientific community, and our visitors.
Databases facilitate the documentation, labeling, and curation of these collections. However, collecting data on living collections typically involves paper forms and subsequent data entry back in the office. Go beyond the limitations of paper forms by enabling instant and mobile data collection. Smartphones and personal tablet computers like the iPad can be ideal data collection devices. Take a picture, collect video, record audio, map a plant, scan barcodes, increase efficiency, and reduce errors.
Presenter: Rebecca Sucher, Missouri Botanical Garden
Leadership of public gardens requires balancing multiple needs to create strategies and plans that focus on the mission and vision and are achievable within the institution's financial resources.
This panel of inspiring leaders will explore the challenges of how to fund multiple planning efforts, how to mix internal and external experts, how to involve trustees, and how to remain simultaneously creative and realistic. The panel will present this from multiple perspectives that will have relevance to nearly all APGA institutions.
Presenters: Chipper Wichman, National Tropical Botanical Garden; Robert Brackman, San Antonio Botanical Garden; Stephanie Jutila, Greater Des Moines Botanical Garden; Tres Fromme, 3 Fromme Design; and Richard Daley, EMD Consulting Group
Numerous APGA gardens have been selected to test the SITES system and help set benchmarks for landscape sustainability.
The pilot phase kicked off in spring 2010, and many gardens from across North America who are participating in SITES testing are eager to share their ongoing experiences with the initiative. Gardens have at least two years of sustainable construction, design, and maintenance experience to share with their peers. Various APGA gardens who are participating in the SITES pilot project will share their experiences and lessons learned with a scripted Q&A session.
Presenters: Melanie Sifton, Humber Arboretum; Ray Mims, United States Botanic Garden; Susan Jacobson, The Morton Arboretum; Mark Simmons, The Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center; and Cynthia Druckenbrod, Cleveland Botanical Garden

missions, locations, and sizes can create positive change. Participants will take away ideas to strategically grow their institutions. By comparing and contrasting business models, the panelists will highlight opportunities to enhance organizations of all types. They will discuss their organizational evolutions and present concrete ideas to enhance operations, from planning and governance to finance and revenue generation.
Presenters: Gerard Donnelly, Morton Arboretum; Ed Moydell, Bloedel Reserve; Bruce Harkey, Franklin Park Conservatory and Botanical Gardens; and George Briggs, North Carolina Arboretum
In the information age, we have quickly become overwhelmed with the vast amount of data stored in disparate locations across our organizations—from visitor services, marketing, and development to research, horticulture and collections.
Come to this session to hear how others are tackling the challenge of streamlining information across their organizations— and how to leverage those efforts to package information to attract new audiences.
Presenters: Susan Wagner, The Morton Arboretum; David Sleasman, Longwood Gardens; George Morris, Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University; and Dove Coggeshall, The Morton Arboretum
This session is not your basic A-B-Cs of strategic planning; it is about how to make transformational change a reality that can impact the bottom line while fostering excitement for a shared vision of the future.
Public garden professionals and planning experts will share an approach to achieving meaningful planning that promote a culture of leaders. This methodology
will apply to all gardens and will be shared through lively dialog from presenters and the audience.
Presenters: Paul Redman and Marnie Conley, Longwood Gardens; Lindsay Martin, Lord Cultural Resources; and Claire Agre, West 8

BR Crisis Intervention hotline number
BATON ROUGE - Workers at the Baton Rouge Crisis Intervention Center say despite the stress, pressure brought and other strong emotions brought on the holidays, they don't get more calls than usual during this time of year.
Medical experts say there's no data to support the idea of the "holiday blues" either, saying suicides actually go down in the winter and spike in the spring and fall.
For those without support, the crisis hotline is there with trained operators who take more then 25,000 anonymous calls each year.
To reach them call (225) 924-3900 or (800) 437-0303.

Second ride today, about 5-6 miles mostly dirt road, but some wandering through brush & trees. Got up to a bit of trotting. Did very well for a young, supposedly pretty green horse.
Just one problem, though: the creek crossing. This was what I call a slot creek in a meadow: about 18 inches wide & deep, with vertical sides, so it needs to be jumped over instead of waded. Well, I'm used to Ellie's nice little hop over this kind of creek. Nova went about 3 feet up in the air (and I think I went about 5 ), like someone added a rocket booster under her tail. So I think I need to do some work to learn to handle that.

Thoughts for Consideration by Camp Nurses
To practice nursing in New Hampshire, you must hold an active NH license or a multi-state license from another compact state. This law applies to all nurses practicing in NH, regardless of how long they practice here. This means that if you are a nurse licensed in a state that is not a member of the Nurse Licensure Compact, you will need to obtain a NH nursing license and you will need to begin the application process in time to be licensed before your camp employment begins. As part of the licensing procedure you will need to have a criminal background check completed, which involves sending a notarized form to the NH State Police and having the NH State Police send a report to the Board of Nursing. Plan ahead!
What is the time commitment you are agreeing to?
Think about what time commitments you can make and realistically continue to maintain sound nursing judgment. What exactly are the hours that you are on duty? Are the terms of your employment clear about exactly when you are and are not responsible for the well being of the campers?
Keep in mind the following definitions of "Registered nursing" and "Practical nursing" that are in the rules of the Board of nursing. You are held to these definitions in your practice regardless of the conditions of employment that you agree to. Review whatever definition applies to your license, and consider carefully whether you can act as a Registered or Practical nurse given the time commitments you are making to the camp:
Nur 101.06 "Practical nursing" means "practical nursing" as defined by the statute RSA 326-B:2, XVI. Review the definition in the statute which is found at: www.gencourt.state.nh.us/rsa/html/XXX/326-B/326-B-2.htm.
Nur 101.08 "Registered nursing" means "registered nursing" as defined in the statute RSA 326-B:2, XVIII. Review the definition in the statute which is found at: www.gencourt.state.nh.us/rsa/html/XXX/326-B/326-B-2.htm.
Supervision of other personnel
Will the camp be hiring anyone else to assist you? Or will the camp be expecting other camp personnel to perform client care? If either of these are the case, are the terms of your employment clear about whether you are required to supervise non-nursing personnel? Be sure to review the Board of Nursing's regulations about delegation, Nur 404. There are several factors to be taken into consideration when delegating tasks of client care to unlicensed personnel, and you need to know them and be comfortable that you can abide by them before you make a commitment to supervise unlicensed personnel.
Knowing the NH Department of Environmental Services rules that regulate camp licensing.
Camps in NH are governed by a set of administrative rules written by the Department of Environmental Services. These rules govern everything from the requirements of health care staffing to locking of medications not in use, as well as dish washing, toilet facilities and safety considerations.
For further information you can contact one of a DES official who works with camp regulation at (603) 271-2542. Since the camp must abide by these rules in order to maintain their own license, the camp will obviously need you to abide by these rules. Therefore you must know the rules and be comfortable abiding by them before you agree to employment.
Unusual Medication Practices and Prescriptions
The New Hampshire Board of Pharmacy advises you to direct questions relative to state and federal drug laws to the Board of Pharmacy by calling (603) 271-2350 and asking to speak to a compliance inspector.

The entries in this section include a variety of points of view and some personal recollections relevant to the history of American social welfare programs, issues, and personalities.
Click here for a list of all Recollections
- Defining Community - Harris Chaiklin, Ph.D., Professor Emeritus, University of Maryland School of Social WorkUntil the Civil War to be oriented to the community as a social reference was in conflict with Individualism which was the dominant American philosophy. The way these ideas played against each other illuminates an important part of the American experience, one that continues to be active today.
- Employment Services: A Brief HistoryPresident Warren Harding called a Conference on Unemployment in 1921. This Conference, of which Mr. Herbert Hoover (at that time Secretary of the U.S. Department of Commerce) was chairman...In commenting on the need for such a service, Secretary Hoover said, "One of the causes of ill will that weighs heavily upon the community is the whole problem of unemployment. I know of nothing [more important] than the necessity to develop further remedy, first, for the vast calamities of unemployment in the cyclic periods of depression, and, second, some assurance to the individual of reasonable economic security--to remove the fear of total family disaster in loss of the job. . . . I am not one who regards these matters as incalculable. . . There is a solution somewhere and its working out will be the greatest blessing yet given to our economic system, both to the employer and the employee."
- Experiencing Aging: A Social Group Worker's Self-Reflection - Catherine P. Papell, MSW, DSW, Professor Emerita, Adelphi UniversityThe concept "experiencing aging" is different than ''aging'. It is a proactive state of being. It is not theory. Rather it is what exists uniquely in the mind and heart of each elderly member. Group workers are ever seeking to find it in their group members and to help the members find it in themselves and in each other.
- Framing the Future Social Security Debate - Larry DeWitt, Historian, U.S. Social Security AdministrationHaving recently completed work on a documentary history of the Social Security program1, several insights suggest themselves which might be useful in framing the (inevitable) future debates over Social Security policy. The first and most salient realization is that to a remarkable degree the policy debates in Social Security seem to contain some hardy perennials.

The nature of a mission-critical website is that it cannot fail. Businesses depend on the site being up in order to meet their goals – sales, information dissemination, or otherwise. However, some large organizations haven't managed to implement the right approach that will keep their site up during critical times.
In 2011 - large brands like Target, H&M, and The Olympics all suffered extended outages - due to traffic spikes they planned for, but drastically underestimated. And there are many businesses who suffer as a result of events they can't plan for.
The answer to ensuring your mission critical site doesn't fail is simple: Select the right managed cloud service provider, with the right infrastructure, scalable resources, and 24x7x365 support.
Please join Acquia and Amazon Web Services to understand how some organizations have successfully built highly available web sites on Drupal running on AWS.
Attendees of this webinar will learn:
• What "High availability" translates to in terms of business value
• Best practices for traffic spike planning
• How to build the right strategy for handling unplanned traffic spikes

Star Jones is returning to the show that made her a household name, "The View."
It's been six years since Star has stepped foot on the set of "The View," and she didn't exactly leave on the best of terms. She even characterized her former co-hosts, whom she once called "hateful," in her book Satan's Sisters.
That's why it came as something of a shock when E! News reported that Star would be returning to "The View" as a guest!
She'll be sitting down with the ladies on February 22 to chat about her part in The American Heart Association's Go Red for Women campaign. Both Barbara Walters and Star underwent heart surgery in 2010. They hope to raise awareness about heart disease during the visit which Barbara commented on during today's episode of "The View."
"Star and I have been heart-to-heart now for many years," Barbara said. "We've had lunches together and discussions together … we had open heart surgery within months of each other. So we are very happy to have her on, and it will be a nice day for all of us to see her."
It's not clear whether Barbara will be presen for Star's appearance, so fans will have to tune in to find out.
