Expanding a ministry's reach through live video streaming.
The popularity of web and mobile video offers a powerful opportunity for expanding the reach of your ministry. While on-demand (prerecorded) video is an important element of any faith-based online site, live video streaming adds the element of immediacy that can deepen the connection between you and your viewers. Live streaming, however, has a few more technical considerations that you should plan for.
One of the most common ways houses of worship are using live streaming today is to reach congregants unable to attend sermons in person. These could include ill or elderly followers, travelers, those away from their home area for an extended period (such as university students), or even those who have moved permanently from the local area but still wish to maintain their connection. Streaming technologies allow such remote worshippers to be reached on devices ranging from personal computers to mobile phones.
Another increasing use of streaming technologies is to connect multisite church organizations, enabling live sermons to be delivered across multiple gathering locations.

Basic Overview of Streaming
At a basic level, there are four key steps in a typical streaming setup, with the content following a linear flow: video source --> streaming encoder --> streaming distribution server or service --> viewer
The streaming encoder is used to transform the source video signal (which may be an analog signal, such as composite, Y/C or component; or a digital signal, such as IEEE-1394 DV or SDI) into a web-friendly stream. This transformation involves compression (to "squeeze" the video and audio signals down to a data rate that can be streamed over network and Internet connections) and "wrapping" the compressed video and audio into a format and protocol used to transport the content. The church can decide what bit rate (data rate) the video streams will be compressed down to. Essentially, a larger bit rate enables higher video quality, but requires higher Internet bandwidth for both the church and viewers.
The resulting stream is sent from the streaming encoder to a distribution (streaming) server or external service (content delivery network, or CDN), from which the content is delivered to viewers. Note that in a typical situation with multiple viewers, there is generally not any "direct" connection between the viewer and the encoder—they connect only to the distribution server or CDN.
These transformations and delivery occur in realtime, so the viewer is seeing the content effectively live as it happens (although generally subject to a small delay—seconds, not minutes—incurred by the nature of network data transport).
Viewers usually access the live content through a video player embedded in a web page; the sophistication of these players varies from simple linear playback (like traditional television), to more sophisticated players with DVR-like functionality (pausing or rewinding the live streams).
A key factor in the success of the streaming is the church's Internet (or private network) connection, which we'll talk about in more detail in the next question, but needs to be mentioned here first.
The choice between the church using its own distribution server and using a CDN is largely based on the number of viewing locations to be reached, and the available Internet connection upload (sending) bandwidth. When using its own streaming server inside the church, the amount of bandwidth needed by the church is essentially the sum of all of the individual viewing bandwidths—the bit rate of the stream times the number of viewers. For example, if you've chosen a 750Kbps (note that this is kilobits, not kilobytes, per second) bit rate, and you have 100 viewers, the total bandwidth demand is 75,000Kbps (75Mbps)—far greater than the upload speeds of the majority of Internet connections, so not practical.
A CDN service provider, however, lets you scale to a virtually unlimited number of viewers, providing you're willing to pay for that level of service. (The service cost is generally based on the amount of data transferred from your account, which will grow with your number of viewers). The church only needs to send a single stream to the CDN over its outgoing Internet connection; it's the CDN who needs the big bandwidth to deliver to all of the viewers.
In contrast, if you are only streaming to a small number of locations, using an inhouse streaming server may be effective. For example, if the goal is to stream to two other campuses within a multisite organization, and the chosen data rate is 3Mbps, then the total outgoing bandwidth demand is 6Mbps, which is possible with a sufficiently fast connection (more on that again shortly). Note that we've used a higher data rate in this example on the assumption that the streams will be displayed on large TVs or monitors in this scenario, so it's important to maximize the resolution and quality of the streams being delivered.
Note that in the case of a single viewing location—such as an output stream being transmitted to a single remote location in the case of a two-site church—the streaming server or CDN may not be necessary, as a one-to-one connection could be formed between the receiver (player) and the encoder. This is not, however, the scenario that most churches will face when they begin streaming.
The source to the encoder could be as simple as the output of a single video camera, or could be an output feed from a complete production environment (with multi-camera switching, etc.). Many churches already have such a production environment from which the encoder can receive a feed.

Expanding a ministry's reach through live video streaming.
Technical Considerations for Success
One of the first considerations is ensuring an adequate Internet connection to send your live stream from your church. As discussed above, the bandwidth requirements for the Internet connection will depend on the deployment model, specifically whether an inhouse distribution server is being used (to reach a small number of affiliated sites) or a CDN (to reach a virtually unlimited number of viewers). To recap, in the case of the in house server, the amount of sustained upload bandwidth needed by the church is essentially the bit rate of the stream times the number of locations being streamed to. When using a CDN, there's essentially only one location being streamed to (the CDN), with the CDN effectively replicating the stream for distribution to an almost unlimited number of viewers. Please see the examples above.
In either case, the bit rate you choose for streaming is an important factor. As above, a higher bit rate enables potentially higher quality, but requires more bandwidth on both the sending and viewing sides. A 3Mbps stream at 1280x720 high definition resolution will have higher perceived quality than a 1.5Mbps stream at the same resolution, but it requires each viewer to have 3Mbps receiving bandwidth—not unreasonable for tech-savvy viewers, but likely too high for the broad audience that you'll probably want to reach—and the church to have at least 3Mbps sending bandwidth even if using a CDN.
If you're streaming between gathering sites, a high bit rate and resolution will probably be worthwhile, as it's likely that the stream will be viewed on a large monitor by multiple people. Low resolution, low bit-rate streams that look fine at small size in a window on a PC may look horrible when viewed full-screen on a large monitor or TV.
Note that it's very important to distinguish the upload (outgoing) speed of the church's Internet connection from the download (incoming) speed. When Internet Service Providers promote the speed of their service, the number they're citing is generally the download speed—and on all but the highest-end offerings, the upload speed is significantly less. For example, a service provider local to us offers a service package with 12Mbps download speed, but the upload speed is only 1Mbps. While download speed is important to the viewers, it's the upload speed that is important to the church when choosing an Internet connection, since the video is being sent out. Such a 1Mbps upload speed would be insufficient for the HD or high-bitrate systems mentioned above, but quite adequate for 640x480 standard-definition stream. (Note that since computer monitors use square pixels, NTSC video at 720x480 non-square pixels becomes 640x480 for streaming).
Ideally, the Internet connection used for sending the streaming video should be separate from the general Internet connection that the church uses for other tasks such as e-mail, web browsing and other uses. Sharing an Internet connection between the outgoing streaming and other tasks can result in unexpected performance drops as the various tasks contend for bandwidth. A dedicated line ensures that the outgoing stream isn't affected by any other Internet activity at the church.

Common Mistakes
There are a number of subtleties that can cause issues for those first starting streaming.
1. Upload vs. download speeds of Internet connections
The upload speeds are typically much lower, but many people don't realize that.
2. Using the same Internet connection for streaming that is used for other church tasks that may be going on at the same time.
3. A misconception we hear occasionally is that if you're just create a small, low-bit-rate output for the Web or mobile phones, you can get away with using a lower-quality source signal (e.g. "noisy" video, lower-quality connections, etc.). In fact, the opposite is true—low-quality sources have a lot of video noise, etc., that makes the video harder to compress, and you're wasting bits compressing the junk in addition to the content. In a low-bit-rate output, those wasted bits are a higher percentage of the total, so you can end up with a LOT lower quality output than if the source had been "clean". You should always use the best quality signal possible, starting at the camera itself—lower-end cameras can introduce noise into the video signal, and lighting is also a big factor in compression quality. Video shot in low light has considerably more video noise than well-lit video; low-light video that looks OK on a monitor connected directly to the camera can look considerably worse once compressed for streaming. For connectivity, SDI digital signals are ideal. For analog video, component signals are the best, followed by Y/C and composite. The best encoding/streaming hardware cards and systems can also do a lot to help "clean up" the video. For example, the Digital Rapids hardware cards that all of its solutions are built on feature advanced video preprocessing, which grooms the input signal to be more compression friendly by removing video noise, providing higher-quality de-interlacing than software algorithms typically allow, and more. The result is that such systems can produce high-quality output even when the input signal is less than ideal but fantastic quality with a good source.
4. There's a trade-off between visual quality and your choices of resolution and bit rate. A common mistake is to decide to stream at higher resolution (frame size) with the expectation that it will provide better quality (just like high-definition television is better quality than standard-definition). The problem is that a larger size requires more compression to get down to a specific bit rate; so the resulting visual quality may be much lower than smaller size at same bit rate. A visual example is useful: As you can see from the example images, particularly with low bit rates, streaming at a lower resolution can actually give better quality than streaming at higher resolution at the same bit rate. If you want to increase your resolution, you likely need to use a higher bit rate to accommodate it.
5. That leads to another possible mistake, though: choosing too high a bit rate. As discussed earlier, the church's Internet connection must be fast enough to deliver streams at your chosen bit rate. Even if the church's connection is fast enough, however, you need to make sure that the bit rate isn't too high for your viewers. If your bit rate exceeds the sustainable bandwidth of a viewer, it's likely to result in an unwatchable experience (lots of buffering, stuttering, skipping, etc.). Be sure to offer a stream with low enough bit rate for the "minimum" connection you expect of your viewers. In fact, it may be best to consider offering streams at multiple bit rates—at least one for those with slow connections, and a high-quality stream for those with fast connections. Some encoders, such as Digital Rapids' TouchStream and StreamZ, can output multiple streams at various resolutions and bit rates simultaneously from the same source signal. But remember that if the church is offering a choice of multiple streams, its Internet connection must be fast enough to send those streams out together—at least as fast as the sum of the bit rates of the streams. For example, if you're offering a 384Kbps stream and a 768Kbps stream, your outgoing Internet connection must be at least 1152Kbps.
6. Last but not least, don't forget that even though your streams aren't Hollywood blockbusters or paid commercial programming, video quality likely still matters to your audience. As technology has advanced, audience expectations have also increased. And it's much easier for a viewer to focus on the message when they aren't distracted by quality issues in the delivery mechanism (video).

Going Further
With the growing popularity of mobile devices such as the Apple iPhone, churches should consider streaming to not just computers on the Web but also mobile phones. PC-based video players and mobile phones typically require different streaming formats, resolutions, and bit rates, so separate streams must be generated for each. Fortunately, the most flexible encoding systems enable the simultaneous live creation of multiple formats for reaching multiple devices.
Last but not least, make sure that your live streaming system also allows you to save the live streams as files that can later be put on your website for on-demand viewing. That allows your congregants who couldn't view the sermons live to access them later at their availability. While most CDNs offer the ability to save the streams to files on their servers as part of their service, advanced encoders that allow you to do so locally onto your hard drive (such as TouchStream) enable you to create the file copy at higher resolution, bit rate, and quality than you're actually streaming to the CDN—ideal if you plan further postproduction (editing, etc.) or reproduction (publishing to DVD, etc.) of the content.

61% of UK adults access the internet from mobiles
Mobile phones cannot work without a network of base stations (masts). There are approximately 52,500 base station sites (excluding microcells) in the UK. Only a third of these are large, free standing masts. A YouGov survey for MOA (Sept 2014) showed that nearly 8 out of 10 people recognise the link between masts and good mobile coverage. Mobile telecommunications are vital for the UK's economic competitiveness and in promoting social inclusion. There are now 89.9 million mobile subscriptions in the UK. In Q1 2015 61 per cent of UK adults used their mobile phones for internet access. Tablet ownership is 54% of UK households.
No Established Health Effects
Mobile phones operate by using radio waves, similar to those that have been widely used for decades, for example in radio, TV and radar signals. A large number of studies over the last two decades have found no clear evidence of adverse health effects from the use of mobile phones or from phone masts.

Mariners re-sign young defender Sainsbury
Central Coast Mariners have reached agreement with Young Socceroos defender Trent Sainsbury to extend his deal with the club for a further two A-League seasons.
The 20-year-old is rated as one of the competition's best young defenders, with the Mariners fending off approaches from several rival clubs.
Sainsbury on Tuesday revealed some of the key reasons behind his decision to stay with the league leaders until at least the end of the 2013/14 campaign.
"It's a good family-orientated club, which suits me, and I like that it's a very chilled out lifestyle here on the Coast," Sainsbury said.
"Arnie (coach Graham Arnold) was a big part of me staying here.
"He's a very professional coach, and I guess you don't know what you've got until it's gone so it was important for me not to go to another club and basically have to start from scratch."
The Mariners have also announced the promotion of three National Young League (NYL) squad members to the club's 2012/13 A-League roster.
Attacker Mitchell Duke, utility James Oates and midfielder Anthony Caceres have been rewarded for their stellar form in the 2011/12 NYL.
Duke has secured a two-year deal, while Oates and Caceres have been signed to initial one-season contracts.
The trio have also been added to the Mariners' 2012 Asian Champions League (ACL) squad.
Mariners' mastermind Arnold praised the club's promotion of Duke, Oates and Caceres, and the retention of Sainsbury.
"This shows that we want to give our youth a go," Arnold said.
"The ones who come into our system early will get a chance - to find other players they have to be a very special talent otherwise we will promote our youth."
Central Coast begin their ACL group stage on Wednesday March 7 away to Tianjin Teda in China.
They then play two Group G games at home against Seongnam Ilhwa Chunma (Korea Republic) and Nagoya Grampus (Japan).

The daughter of celebrity agent Max Clifford has told a court that a letter written by one of his alleged victims was the "rantings of a mad woman".
Louise Clifford, 42, said the anonymous letter which accused her father of assaulting a woman more than 35 years earlier, had been written by a "very disturbed, malicious person".
Giving evidence at London's Southwark Crown Court, Ms Clifford told the jury she felt an "atmosphere" when her father invited her to his office to read the letter.
Loading article content
"I knew something was amiss," she said. "He showed me, and said, 'I've received an anonymous letter.'"
Asked by defence barrister Richard Horwell, QC, what her father's reaction was to the letter, Ms Clifford said: "He was just nonplussed. Completely bewildered by it. It was obviously disturbing.
"It was the ranting of a mad woman. That was my reaction."
The court has heard the letter was written by a woman who claims to have been abused by Clifford after meeting him in Spain when she was 15 in 1977.
She is one of seven alleged victims of indecent assault in the trial.
During cross-examination, prosecutor Rosina Cottage, QC, suggested to Ms Clifford that the letter reads as though it is written from "someone hurt by your father".
Ms Clifford replied: "I think it reads like a very disturbed, malicious person."
Mr Clifford denies all the charges. The trial continues.

North Korea remains one of the world's most isolated regimes, not least because of its rogue nuclear program. The country remains desperately short of everything from food to energy, and its traditional allies, Russia and China, have been quietly but persistently distancing themselves.
France, broadening its diplomatic endeavors under President Sarkozy, is to open its "Cooperation Bureau" in Pyongyang, Le Monde reported.
The French Foreign Ministry's Asia desk has nominated Olivier Vaysset to represent French interests. Vaysset, who was hitherto the Quai d'Orsay (French Foreign Ministry) correspondent at the General Directorate of External Security (DGSE,) has served in Asia, including having been cultural adviser at the French Embassy in Singapore. Vaysset will open the bureau in Pyongyang in September.
The "Cooperation Bureau" initiative builds on nearly two years of diplomatic initiatives by the Sarkozy administration, which in November 2009 tasked former Socialist minister Jack Lang with visiting North Korea to examine the potential for a possible dialogue with the regime. Lang subsequently recommended opening the bureau.
The initiative unsettled some of North Korea's neighbors, with Japan expressing its anxiety and requesting explanations from Paris about the endeavor. Further apprehension about implementation the recommendation also came from French Government officials, a number of whom opposed dispatching a diplomat and considered the opening of the bureau "premature."

INDEPENDENCE — Anthony Bennett just became a very rich young man, and Sergey Karasev and Carrick Felix didn't fare too poorly, either.
The Cavaliers announced Tuesday afternoon that they had agreed to terms with all three of their 2013 draft picks — No. 1 overall choice Bennett, No. 19 Karasev and second-round pick (No. 33 overall) Felix.
The 20-year-old Bennett will earn a shade over $5.3 million as a rookie, almost $5.6 million in 2014-15 and $5.8 million in 2015-16, for a three-year total of almost $16.7 million.
The 6-foot-8, 240-pound forward can sign a contract extension after his third season, and almost all rookies do. If he doesn't, the Cavs can pick up a team option that would pay the UNLV product more than $7.3 million in 2016-17.
A fifth-year qualifying offer that almost never comes into play could potentially pay Bennett another $9.5 million, making the total value of his deal $33.5 million over five years.
The 19-year-old Karasev, a 6-7, 203-pound swingman out of Russia, will earn $1.47 million as a rookie and $4.6 million over his first three seasons. Like Bennett, he can sign a contract extension at that point.
If needed, the left-hander's fourth-year team option would pay him $2.46 million, with the seldom-used fifth-year qualifying offer at $3.5 million, for a total value of almost $10.6 million.
Felix, a 6-6, 210-pound swingman out of Arizona State, signed a four-year deal for $3.3 million, though the final season is not guaranteed. His deal, which will pay him $510,000 as a rookie, was reported several weeks ago.
Bennett, who has said he will be ready when training camp opens in October after undergoing offseason shoulder surgery, was the first Canadian player drafted No. 1 overall. The Toronto native has played for Canada's junior national teams and was named Mountain West Conference Freshman of the Year in his lone college season.
The long-armed Bennett is considered a power forward with perimeter shooting skills by the Cavs, who also have Anderson Varejao and Tristan Thompson at that position. The rookie also could eventually see some minutes at small forward, where the team remains thin.
Karasev, who could challenge incumbent Alonzo Gee and free-agent signee Earl Clark for the starting small forward job, led Russia to the gold medal at the World University Games. He's also capable of playing shooting guard.
The defensive-minded and athletic Felix earned second-team honors in the Pac-12 as a senior and is a lock to make the team.

Missouri River Race passes by Jefferson City
Wed, 25 Aug 2010 22:00:57 GMT —
It's called a "Dragon Boat." Nearly two dozen people man the paddles.
"We've got three guys from Florida, at least one from Texas, several from Kansas City, St. Louis area, Springfield, Branson, Dragon Boat Crew Chief Maria Crusius said.
This team came together to raise money for the Shriner's Children's Hospital in St. Louis.
The 5th Annual Missouri River 340 passed by Jefferson City Wednesday morning. The race features all kinds of boats and all kinds of people with all kinds of motivation.
"One of the crew members on the boat received treatment from Shriner TMs as a child, Crusius said.
Hundreds of race teams left Kansas City Tuesday, bound for St. Charles, in what is billed as the world's longest non-stop river race. The event was delayed a month by high water and fast currents. The winners could finish as early as Wednesday.
Those just in it for the float trip will slide in sometime on Friday.
Kevin Schwartz, a student, is part of a two-man crew from Jefferson City called the "Aquaholics." They command a high-tech, hybrid canoe-slash- kayak. It's their third year in the race.
The competitors battle both fatigue and the elements.
"Yesterday, it got really windy on us, really slowed us down, Schwartz said. But today, the conditions have been good. Last night it got a little cold but.
Under the rules, the teams have 88 hours to complete the course.
They have to stop at nine checkpoints and each checkpoint must be reached within a certain amount of time. Any competitor who misses the deadline for two consecutive checkpoints is disqualified. Last year, two thirds of the race teams were able to complete the course in the allotted time.
Schwartz said it's important to remember to eat and drink regularly in the boat, to protect against fatigue and dehydration.
At the Noren Landing in Jefferson City Wednesday, Schwartz said they were about twelve hours of paddling from the finish line.

WASHINGTON, DC—After months of fevered speculation and allegations in the media regarding his private life, U.S. Rep. Gordon Graham (D-IL) finally admitted Monday to having a sexual relationship with Arlington, VA, interior designer Joyce Debolt.
"I frankly don't understand this line of questioning, considering that the two of us have been seeing each other for almost a year now," said Graham, the media-dubbed "Lascivious Lawmaker," at a press conference. "But if you must know, yes, we are dating."
Pressed as to whether his use of the term "dating" implied acts of sexual intimacy—including, but not limited to, intercourse—Graham replied, after a brief pause: "Well, yes, obviously."
Graham then became visibly agitated and refused to answer any more questions on the subject, attempting to steer queries toward a discussion of energy policy. When the diversionary tactic failed, the congressman became, according to one reporter present, "ticked off" before leaving the room, bringing the press conference to a halt. The reporter described the representative's expression upon leaving the press conference as "like the proverbial cat caught with the canary."
"I knew it," said Chris Matthews, host of MSNBC's Hardball With Chris Matthews and an outspoken critic of the legislative lothario. "They've been seen eating in restaurants together, they've been spotted in his car together, they've even been caught together in romantic getaway spots. He was clearly sleeping with her the whole time."
Debolt, from whom Graham is widely believed to have received oral sex, declined comment on the admission. Single with two children from a previous marriage, Debolt has been at the center of controversy since July 11, when allegations of her relationship with Graham first surfaced after the two of them were seen attending an AMFAR dinner-party fundraiser together.
Graham, single since his divorce from wife Sandra seven years ago, was allegedly introduced to Debolt by a "mutual friend" at a still-undetermined "social function" sometime in October 2000. It is still not known whether the two have been having sex the entire time, or if the sex only began recently.
"Well, at least it's finally out in the open," said Kewanee, IL, resident Bob Hueber, who said he voted for Graham in the last election but will never support him again. "Still, it's still a terrible thing to hear. He came right out and admitted to everything. Imagine, a federal legislator engaging in the act of physical union. Everyone in Illinois feels very ashamed right now. Ashamed and shocked."
Doreen Salzman, a Springfield, IL, mother of four, agreed.
"A grown man, an elected federal official no less, doing God-knows-what in bed with some woman," Salzman said. "How am I supposed to explain something like this to my kids? America has truly lost its innocence."
Until Monday, Graham had refused to confirm or deny charges that he and Debolt had repeatedly engaged in sexual intercourse, insisting that his "personal life isn't anybody's business." Media experts, however, say that Graham's refusal to discuss his exploits have caused him more harm than good: The focus of months of intense media scrutiny, Graham's rumored extracurricular escapades have captivated the nation and dominated headlines, particularly in the tabloids, where the story has taken on a life of its own despite—or perhaps because of—Graham's "hush-hush" ways.
"Graham apparently thought that, by keeping his shady bedroom activities—which we now know involved naked, nude, sexy sex—under wraps, the problem would just go away," New York Post gossip columnist Cindy Adams said. "If he had nothing to hide, he could have simply said so. But, by behaving like a guilty person, he caused himself untold damage. Now, all the sexy, naked skeletons in his sex closet are out there in the naked light of day for all to see."
Graham has refused to provide explicit details concerning the specifics of his "sexy sex-affair" with Debolt, but speculation runs rampant. Sexperts—sexual scientists who make a scholarly study of sex—say Graham and Debolt likely engaged in foreplay, including caressing and possibly tongue-kissing, leading to the removal of varied articles of clothing and, ultimately, both male and female nudity. Not long after, sexperts say, penetration of Debolt's vagina by Graham's penis probably resulted. Whether the two engaged in sex talk during their sex play is unknown, though many suggest it wouldn't be unlike the sexy congressman to do so.
"Sexually speaking, I wouldn't put anything past that guy," Adams said. "He probably has all sorts of weird sexy sex-kinks when he and his sexy sex-partner do their sexy dirty sex sex sex."

Green jobs on the way to Cheboygan
Fri, 30 May 2014 00:12:20 GMT —
Thanks to $120 million grant a northern Michigan community that has seen more jobs leave town in recent years may be turning that trend around.
These tax-exempt grants are part of the stateâ??s green initiative that would bring more than 125 jobs to the Cheboygan area.
For years Cheboygan has relied on summer traffic to drive the local economy.
â??It's been tough in northern Michigan for the past few years,â?? said Cheboygan Area Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Matthew J. Friday. â??So this is a great opportunity to secure some good year-round jobs.
Friday says the unemployment rate in Cheboygan can get up to 30% in the winter months.
With companies leaving in recent decades, the jobless rates have done nothing but climb.
Great Lakes Tissue Company and Wisconsin-based company Green Box are teaming up to reuse and recycle paper waste from the Detroit-Metro area and turn them into new paper products.
Together this recycling project could create 130 jobs in the Cheboygan area and more than 330 state-wide.
â??We think there are some great things coming up for Cheboygan, things that will be happening soon,â?? said Friday.
According to Friday, new jobs in the area should snowball effect on the rest of the local economy.
â??When you get a large amount of people in community needing products and services, well one thing leads to another and pretty soon that leads to further jobs and further businesses in the community,â?? said Friday.
Not only will the project bring jobs, but Green Box says itâ??s also a good move for the environment.
They expect to eliminate 22 million cubic-feet of landfill waste every year through the recycling effort and cut the paper waste in Michigan land fills by half.

When Taylor Buchholz was placed on the disabled list on June 1, it was assumed the Mets reliever would return to the bullpen when his right shoulder felt free of fatigue.
A month later Buchholz remains on the DL, though not due to his shoulder anymore. The righthander revealed the reason for his absence is due to his battle with depression.
"Last season, with the Rockies, I experienced some depression and anxiety before returning from Tommy John surgery," Buchholz said in a statement released by the Mets on Friday. "I thought I had it under control, but recently, at the end of May of this year, the depression and anxiety began to resurface. After counseling with my doctor, I agreed to try different medications, and it was recommended that I not pitch while I adjust to the new medications.
"I am in regular contact with the Mets and have kept them informed of my progress. I am extremely grateful for the way the Mets have cared for me and my family."
The 29-year-old Buchholz has logged 26 innings of work for New York this season, striking out 26 hitters and walking seven. He is 1-1 with a 3.12 ERA.
In 1997 Mets pitcher Pete Harnisch missed three months of play while dealing with depression, but returned in August before being dealt to Milwaukee.
Buchholz is a distant cousin of Sox starter Clay Buchholz.

Never dabbled with this before, but since I'm now flirting with dropping cable TV (gasp!) for at least a little while, I'd like to pick up a 'decent' antenna that would allow any one of my 3 HDTVs (One big one, two little ones) to at least catch ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, PBS over the air and in HD.
I live in New Castle, IN, so I'm not exactly close to a big city. That's about 45 or so miles away from Indy.
What would be the "right" antenna for me given where I live?
What should the price for said antenna be?
Thanks for anything you can help me with!

Does anyone here have any experience baking and decorating cakes at a commissary or satellite kitchen? That is one of the places the health dept suggests using. If you have done this I would love to hear how it works out for you. Thanks.
Not to steal your thunder but I also am interested in hearing any replies as I have seen this mentioned on CC several times.
I guess I have to wonder if anyone really does work at these types of kitchens.
I know when I worked at the comissary, they NEVER allowed that. I have worked at several comissaries here and overseas. But maybe that is something new. Can I ask where you are located that the health dept suggested that?
Colorado. There are private licensed kitchens that are rented out to bakers, caterers, vendor foodcarts, those who need a licensed kitchen but aren't big enough to invest in a kitchen, that type of thing. I just wonder how it works out for a cake decorator.
Oh, okay. I get that. I thought that they might have specifically told you to try the comissary. That is why I was wondering about it. I have never done that, but I am also searching for a place to rent, too! Hope you find something good!
I don't have personal experience in this, but I found a site that lists available commercial kitchens for rent:
That list is for Colorado. To find one near you, type your zip code into the box in the upper left hand corner of the page and hit "go."
I'm also interested in hearing first-hand experiences.
They are also called shared-use commercial kitchens or kitchen incubators. I am looking in to starting one....its been educational. They typically range in price between $10-$35 depending upon what part of the country you are in, how many hours you want to rent the kitchen per month, and what hours you are willing to work. Usually this fee includes a small amount of refrigerator/freezer and dry storage space as well as utilities, often phone and a few other services. Incubators will usually also have some sort of small business help services, which is great. I know the fee seems expensive, but even the for profit ones don't make a lot of money--there is a lot more going into it than you'd expect.
You just have to decide if it makes sense for your business so you have some place to start from before finding your own space. They can be great for just getting started, but since cakes are such a time consuming item (and you really can't make 500 at a time--like a food processor could) it may be tough for you to produce enough to cover the hourly cost of the kitchen, your other costs and still have much of anything left over.
(I really think they work better for a company producing large quantities of the same product all at once--if they can produce 200 bottles of their product which they sell at $8 each during a 4 hour period they are going to make a lot more than a cake decorator who can make 2 or 3 cakes which they can sell for $60 each in that same 4 hour period--and don't forget you have to include set up and clean up in that time)
If you do do it you have to figure out how to be super productive and efficient.
HTH and good luck
I checked out a shared kitchen in my area. It was too expensive for me. You had to sign up with a 6 month commitment and put down one month's security deposit. The cheapest monthly rest was $450 which gave you 20 hours/month. You also had to have your ServSafe certification ($250) plus purchase liability insurance ($500-$600/yr). Instead I approached a friend-of-a-friend who owns two bakeries and she will let me work out of her smaller kitchen in exchange for baking a few things for her and helping around the store once in a while. What a find for me! I am so excited to get my license. Good luck.

When failing systems discharge untreated sewage, potential exposure to harmful bacteria and pathogens can cause public health concerns and threaten the environment.
In 2016, the WPCLF program awarded more than $13 million to 57 counties. Each county was eligible to receive
up to $300,000 to distribute to homeowners. Ohio EPA will make an additional $13.1 million available to 51 county health districts in 2017. read more...
The village owns and maintains a combined sewer collection system that flows to the City of Portsmouth's wastewater treatment plant. Under normal conditions, collected wastewater is treated and discharges to the Ohio River. During periods of wet weather, such as rain events or snow melt, the flow exceeds sewer capacity.

Amherst Considers Moving Town Hall to Make it Handicap Accessible
Amherst, VA - The town of Amherst is in the market for a new town hall because of one very inconvenient problem. The current building, located in the heart of Main Street, is not handicap accessible.
Getting in and out of Amherst's town hall in a wheelchair is no easy feat. The building was donated to the town long before the American With Disabilities Act was signed into law. It has no elevator, no handicap accessible bathroom and narrow hallways.
"It was an old bank. There is a large portion of the footprint that's taken up with a huge safe," Mayor Paul Kilgore explained.
He says it would cost more to renovate the 1920's building than to sell it and use the proceeds to move somewhere else.
Town officials are also concerned about the public perception:
"We're here to serve all of our citizens whether they're mobile or not," said Kilgore.
As far as a timeline, the mayor says it could be anywhere from one month to a few years before moving the town hall. He says they have a few buildings in mind, but nothing's been voted on yet.

Keeping a Cap & Ball Revolver loaded.

1. Thank you for the very detailed information on keeping a BP revolver loaded for an extended period of time. I can see some people have methods that appear to work for them.
2. I don't see the point of it.
I like BP and have an old Spiller & Burr replica I used to shoot. The bottom line though is if I think the situation warrants having a loaded handgun ready why on earth would I handicap myself with a weapon which is especially prone to degradation of its ammunition? Sorry, no amount of magic sealing techniques will ever make the BP cylinder more reliable than modern factory cased ammunition. Even Hickok was known to fire his pair of BP revolvers daily and reload them to make certain they were always ready to go. Guys may have rode around with BP revolvers at the ready but it was not because they preferred them, it was because they were the only game in town (or only thing they could afford).
While I find the information here interesting I put it in the category of how to build the Parthenon with Bronze Age Technology; cool to know but completely inapplicable in the modern day.

Ask Computer Networking Questions and Get Answers ASAP
Hello and thank you for choosing JustAnswer. My name is XXXXX XXXXX I will be your expert today.
Please let me know when you are ready.
I am here, ready to go.
All right.
Your question value is kinda low for this type of question, but I will give it a quick shot. It might be a common problem we can diagnose together.
Can you visit http://whatismyip.com and tell me what your IP address is?
Its 18.104.22.168
Okay, I am checking your port settings now.
Please standby.
I have a detailed error message from the Ispy connect service if you want me to copy and paste it.
Yes please.
Local iSpy Server: http://192.168.1.150:8080Checking local server... OKChecking WebServer... OKChecking your firewall... iSpy is enabledChecking your account... Found:[email protected]Your subscription is valid.IPv4: Checking port mappings... 1025 -> 1025 on 192.168.1.3 (TCP)8080 -> 8080 on 192.168.1.150 (TCP)Checking external access... iSpyConnect is trying to contact your server at: http://22.214.171.124:8080/command.txt?test&auth=f2ddc6f4-3e4c-407e-a4f3-893da438e404Failed: Could not connect to iSpy running on your computer. Check your firewall and router settings. If you continue local access, SMS and email alerts will still work but remote (external) access to view your cameras and microphones won't be available.Your router should be configured to forward TCP traffic from WAN (external) port 8080 to internal (LAN) port 8080 on IP address 192.168.1.150Check http://www.ispyconnect.com/userguide-connecting.aspx#6 for troubleshooting.Your port mapping seems to be OK - try turning your router off and on again. Failing that we recommend checking with your ISP to see if they are blocking port 8080 or check if your antivirus protection (eset, zonealarm etc) is blocking iSpy. If you still cannot get it working, please see the troubleshooting section here: http://www.ispyconnect.com/userguide-remote-access-troubleshooting.aspx
It keeps saying to forward ports but my ports are forwarded.
My scan came up with all of your ports filtered.
What model router do you have?
Netgear WGR614v10
I dont know what you mean by filtered
Filtered means there is no response at all to a request.
If forwarding was working properly, there would either be an 'open' or 'closed' response.
ok I have also tried lowering my firewall and turning off antivirus. I even uninstalled my antivirus at one point.
On your Netgear, is port 8080 forwarded to 192.168.1.150 ?
Do you have a software firewall?
No, windows
Have you tried disabling the Windows 7 firewall?
Also the Wansview server wont work that came with the camera which shows as 002oabu.nwsvr.com You are supposed to be able to go to this website and view the camera
I can give you access to my Ispy account if you want to look at it.
That address is forwarding to the wrong IP address.
No, as anything you post here is publicly accessible.
I have a static Ip address
I'm quite sure the problem is either with your Netgear or your computer.
ok, cant I forward it to the right address through netgear port forwarding then?
Let's double check your computer's IP address. If that is wrong, the port forwarding will not work.
If it's forwarded to the right address, it should work.
Open a command prompt (Start -> cmd) and enter
Your IP address should be 192.168.1.150
the IPV4 address is that one
Okay, that is good.
You can close that window and we'll now check the Netgear.
Go ahead and log in to the Netgear at http://192.168.1.1
Im already logged in
Click the Port Forwarding link near the left of the page.
What do you have listed there?
You can press the PrtScr button on your keyboard and paste a screenshot here.
PrtScr is not working for some reason
That's ok as you probably only have one or two entries in there. Can you tell me what they are?
Got it.
ok it worked
Well, that page is all right.
Ive also tried using different ports
I take that .3 is your camera on port 1025?
I tried configuring the program for a different port and then forwarding the new ports
yes, that is the camera itself
What happens if you access http://192.168.1.3:1025
That takes me to the camera interface screen where I can see the camera
Okay good.
The problem is with your router then.
For whatever reason (age, heat, defective) the port forwarding is not working correctly.
You can try a firmware upgrade and a reset, but at worst you will need to purchase a new router.
I completely reset the router a couple of times to factory reset too.
so it could still work with my computer and give me signal but the port forwarding is bad?
Then I recommend purchasing one from Wal-Mart or a similar retailer with a friendly return policy. If it doesn't work still (though it should!), then they will refund it no questions asked.
That is correct.
Because my computer and the camera are both running wirelessely off that router fine
Let me double check that model though. Some routers you have to still turn port forwarding on.
Also the Ispy service instruction manual said something about the ISP provider could be blocking ports before they even get to my router but I tried different ports
It's rare for an ISP in the States to block port 8080, even rarer for 1025
Also I tired to run the Ispy connect with a url under the noip.com address to avoid using ip address and that didnt work but I dont know if I did it right.
I do not see a requirement to Enable port forwarding, so it's most likely a defective router.
A URL will resolve to the same IP address.
Here is what the Ispy service says "Use URL instead of IP address to connect to your iSpy server: Use this if you have a domain or use dyndns.org (include your iSpy server port if applicable) - leave this blank to use your auto-detected external IP address"
Yeah, that should be fine.
but that doesnt work either
Because of the defective router.
I highly recommend swapping out the router to confirm. If it was something else, I would be surprised.
I know it's not the computer as the port forwarding for the camera isn't working either.
ok, I will try that. One more thing.
armyvetcopcoach.no-ip.org is the url I set up and tried for the Ispy. How does that work exactly. Does it bypass the IP address?
Let me see what it resolves to.
Oh, and portforwarding.com software guaranteed the ports were forwarded. I bought their software and they say the ports are forwarded.
unless they are getting a false report somehow
That url resolves to 220.127.116.11 - Dynamic DNS (DYDNS or DDNS) checks your current IP address and assigns the subdomain to it. If your address were to change, it would automatically update the url so it will stay current.
The screenshot that you attached shows your ports properly configured.
so, even if I use the noip.com address it still could be the router?
That is correct. Entering the noip.com address or the IP address will have the same result.
oh ok. Alright then. Good job. I will buy a new router.
You are quite welcome. Please don't forget to rate my service today and if for some reason the new router doesn't work, there is no charge for a follow-up here.
any recommendations on a good router for this purpose?
I highly recommend the Linksys brand.
ok, thanks. bye.
Such as this one.
You're quite welcome. Take care.
I got a new router and have the same errors.
Yes, everything is forwarded but it wont let me paste the screen here. It is saying too many characters. I had to get another Netgear router as no Linksys available.
yes, that is correct
I just got and switched everything over to a E1500 linksys router. All the same problems. The first link above works. The second does not. The second says page not found.
Yes, my computer is connected to the same router as the IP camera. I dont think I have more than one IP address. I am pretty sure I dont.
What about double NAT?
I saw this here but I dont get it.
The scan did not tell me anything unless I am not clicking the right menus. Listed IP address is:71-94-45-130.static.trlk.ca.charter.com. I talked to my ISP and they say they are not blocking any ports. The camera is connected wirelessly to the router. The computer is also connected wirelessly to the router. I can see and control the camera wirelessly.
they are all in green which means stealth.

Best Bully Sticks Available!
By Sue42 on Aug 17, 2017
These Smokehouse Bully Sticks truly are odor free! They keep our dog's teeth very clean and white. She is a fairly aggressive chewer. These usually last for a couple of days. They do a great job keeping her teeth free of tarter.
When Dog is Happy, I'm Happy.
By Kcms on Sep 11, 2017
My dog loves these. I'm happy, as it takes her a while to chew them down. Will probably purchase again.
Very Thin Bully STicks
By Maxfield on Dec 25, 2016
Very thin Bully sticks. I think this should be described in the product description. Makes a big difference. Thanks
My pups didn't care for them at first-but once they broke them in...in love.
By PTeri on Apr 26, 2016
These bully sticks are so reasonably priced and worth trying. As I've already mentioned-the dogs didn't like them at first-but once they broke them in they were so content.
Keeps the pup happy and they last
By Martyboos on Feb 27, 2016
My 1.5 year old shepherd mix LOVES to chew! We buy bully sticks by the case and this brand has been great! There's no mess or smell and cases later, the pup still loves them. We've tried other brands that our dog will be done with in under 15 minutes. The smokehouse ones keep him calm and occupied for at least 30 minutes, usually longer.
Puppy LOVES it!
By dmarie514 on Sep 19, 2015
Ordered this bully stick for my shepherd mix puppy who went crazy for it immediately. I've limited her chewing time to about 30 minutes per day as I suspect she'd keep chewing until the stick was completely gone. I've noticed no obnoxious odor and it doesn't appear to have upset her digestive system in any way. My 4 star, rather than a 5 star, review is due to the cost of the stick and the fact that after less than a week, it's going to be necessary to take the bully stick away permanently as it's becoming small enough for her to swallow. I would consider purchasing again as a very special treat for my puppy, but feel it's too pricey to buy on a regular basis.
Fast, accurate order
By BWhit on Oct 20, 2015
Friendly customer support, order was processed and delivered quickly. Smokehouse brand bully sticks don't smell, so I stick with them.
By Bella on Sep 19, 2015
I have a 7lb dog who normally goes through sticks in 2 days this brand lasts they are natural and she loves them
Last a long time
By Kate on Sep 16, 2015
Kate loves this built stick. I like it because it keeps her busy and lasts a long time.
Bully sticks
By Noah on Apr 24, 2015
Bully sticks were as promised. Not made in China! No odor and not sticky. Just be sure to take away when the stick gets small enough for your dog to swallow whole. Can cause a digestive problem. Noah

We saw the announcement in yesterday's Publishers Weekly about mediabistro.com contributor Greg Lindsay landing a book deal with Farrar Straus Giroux for co-authoring Aerotropolis, a book about a "combination of giant airport, planned city, shipping facility and business hub" that's popping up all over the world. The other author is business professor John Kasarda, who coined the term—which was popularized (or at least introduced to mainstream America) in Lindsay's Fast Company profile of Kasarda last summer.
So, I asked him, considering that his research included three weeks flying around the world without ever leaving the airports, did he really want to hit the road again for an author tour? Lindsay revealed that his original book proposal called for a two-week tour of nothing but airports, with stops at JFK, Los Angeles International, Chicago O'Hare, Dallas-Ft. Worth, San Francisco International, Denver International, Houston George H. W. Bush, Washington Reagan and Dulles, Boston Logan, and Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson. "It's not like I have much of a choice," he elaborated. "That's where the most hard-core segment of the book's audience lives 300+ days a year."
