Their mission is to serve their members by delivering relevant technology and leadership education, research and information on current business and technology issues, and forums for networking and collaboration (AITP, 2010). The landscape of our IT industry has changed (AITP, 2010).

To remain competitive as an IT professional, it is imperative that you have access to quality resources that provide life-long learning to develop your business skills and keep you abreast of technology changes and a professional network to tap into for fellowship and mentoring (AITP, 2010). The Association of Information Technology Professionals (AITP) has been a continuing resource for quality professional development (AITP, 2010). Serving the IT industry as a national organization and through our local chapters, AITP is committed to delivering to our members the recognition, support, and credibility that will give them the competitive edge needed to succeed (AITP, 2010).

London: Statistics have proved that women are not good at parking cars as compared to men.
Researchers at the Ruhr University Bochum in Germany asked 65 volunteers to park a 23,000-pounds Audi, and found that women took up to 20 seconds longer than men.
According to statistics given by the Driving Standards Agency, out of the 170,000 women who failed their driving test last year for mistakes in reversing or failing to use their mirrors, 55,000 failed in parking, totalling to a third of women failing in parking.
While some women complain that their breasts make it difficult for them to turn around while parking, young men are found to have an overdrive of testosterone as soon as they get behind the wheel.
"So far this year the pass rate is 50.7 percent for men and 44.1 percent for women," the Daily Mail quoted an agency spokesman as saying.

Once you have believed through these concerns and have answered them as completely as you can, you can begin to look at and test the sewing machines in your stockists, please make positive that it is you who tests the sewing machines you are interested in, do not let the sales individual demonstrate it for you, they will not be coming residence with you when you make the purchase and it is you that demands to really feel comfortable and confident in your new sewing machine, if you frequently use one particular kind of material then take a piece with you to test the sewing machine on, the exact same is true if you use a single function a lot more than the other people, please test it in the shop ahead of you consider making that acquire.
The final factor I would like to talk about is price, as I mentioned earlier you might be paying hundreds of dollars for the sewing machine of your dreams, when you have identified the make and model you are interested in make a note of the specifics, model numbers are excellent to use to search for on the web and compare costs on line with those on the high street, you know you like the machine now you just have to locate it at the finest achievable price tag.

Today I read of our young PM Justin Trudeau and his wife taking a day break on the trip to Japan. I am definitely not a fan of Trudeau or his party of Liberal hacks. BUT I do understand the need for a break from the Protocols etc of a state Visit.
Who should care if the current PM takes a break to celebrate his wedding Anniversary. No One that is who.
Anyway after reading that I got to thinking about my last trip to Japan. Then out of the BLUE I received an email from my Cribbage playing Amigo. Bill McCarthy.
22 May 2016. Life comes full circle … again. Adam boards a plane today for Japan with the PM. 27 years ago today I
was boarding a plane to Dakar – Brussels with My PM. (27? Adam just turned 27). Adam is Bill and Annamaria's son. Currently Photographer to PM Justin Trudeau.
My memories of Dakar came flooding back. A local Senegalese Policeman standing guard in the hallway just outside the Prime Minister's suite. He had the obligatory wrap around sun glasses on and was sound asleep standing up?? A feat that I thought impossible until that time. At the conference centre a Senegalese Police man sitting on a plastic Coca Cola crate. Ejecting rounds from his 9mm into the sand then picking them up and reinserting them hmmmm wonder if the weapon would fire or Jam.
21 May 1991 I was boarding a plane with My PM to Hong Kong – Japan. (I was 33) This year we celebrate our 33rd wedding anniversary.
Buddy Hazel and Junior my little Moose. They were my constant travelling companions. In hotel rooms around the world i'd leave them on a window sill,taking in the views. Returning to my room each evening i never knew what to expect. They might be tucked into my bed, in my pajama pockets, in the pockets of the House Coat hanging on the door in the bathroom, peeking out of a dresser drawer. Sitting on a pillow watching TV. I wish i had more photos of what the chamber maids did with these three.
Here are Buddy Hazel and Junior in Tokyo 1991 and as they are today here in Kyiv! I wonder if Spot will be on the plane today?
Spot is the mascot that Adam Travels with. He is certainly his Father's son.
I do believe they were MOOSENAPPED in Tokyo ?
I had such a sore back, and was pleasantly surprised when the female staffers chipped in and had a masseuse come to my room to give me a massage…….Oh it was fantastic. Even the masseuse was a tiny lady of indeterminate age. She was a strong as an Ox as the saying goes.
Ah sweet memories of a great time with a great Boss.
Thanks Bill for some great memories and well done on Adam followi ng in his Dad's Footsteps.
Canada is very Lucky.

SILVER LAKE, N.Y. -- Ron DiGiovanni learned about the win late Saturday morning when he went on his computer. The news had spread like wildfire that the Elmsford Little League Baseball Junior team won the District 20 championship earlier in the morning.
This motivated the older guys who did not want to be upstaged by the younger players. Elmsford went out and swept Kensico, 10-4 and 12-0, to win the District 20 Little League Baseball Senior title at Silver Lake Park, Saturday. Elmsford moves on to the Section 4 Championships, Friday, July 22 through Tuesday, July 26, at Putnam Valley Park in Putnam County. Elmsford opens with the District 33 champ (Northern Westchester), Friday, 5:30 p.m.
DiGiovanni threw a two-hitter with five strikeouts in the second game, which was stopped after five innings because of the 10-run rule. Nick Fanelli had two hits, scored twice and drove in two runs and Jesus Molina doubled had three RBI and also scored two runs.
It was on Facebook that the juniors won and I saw them holding the championship banner, said DiGiovanni, 15, and a sophomore-to-be at Archbishop Stepinac. We felt if they could do it, we can do it too.
Elmsford also had another motivating factor. Had it split with Kensico, Elmsford would have returned to Silver Lake Park Sunday for a 9 a.m. game. To wake up on a Sunday morning, even to play baseball, was not what we wanted to do, said DiGiovanni, with a laugh.
Elmsford secured a sleep-in Sunday morning with a 12-run third inning, sending 17 batters to the plate. Fanelli initiated it with a single and later added a two-run single. Following the lengthy inning, DiGiovanni was not affected. He returned to the mound in the bottom of the third and set down Kensico in order.
I always tell my teammates to get me one or two runs and Ill provide the rest, DiGiovanni said. If they can do it for me, I have to do it for them. It feels great to finally win a championship.
Paul Viviano and Matt Bisesto had Kensicos hits. In the first game, played earlier Saturday, Elmsford scored four runs in the first innning and led 6-0 through two. Matt Ragone and Jack Davis singled and scored in the first inning and John Alleva and Michael Barbieri scored the third and fourth runs, respectively. Ragone went 43 for 4, including a double, and scored twice and Molina singled and had two runs scored. Bisesto singled and scored for Kensico and Lou Lippolis walked three times and scored a run.

How Do You Buy a New or Used GMC Terrain?
You don't want any Terrain for sale in Roseville. You want to buy the one that's a match for you and your lifestyle. That means researching all your options, examining prices, and selecting a new or used GMC Terrain. But how do you decide?
Preparing to Buy a Used GMC Terrain in Roseville
Your first step? Research, particularly if you'd prefer to buy a used Terrain. Read reviews by both industry experts and other drivers, then compare safety ratings, performance, MPG, features and prices. When looking at a used GMC Terrain, note the vehicle's interior wear, mileage and history. Some may still be eligible for certain warranties—a huge bonus for you!
What About Buying a New GMC Terrain in Roseville?
When buying a new Terrain, research your warranty options and consider any opportunities for customization. Buying new could be the right choice for you if you're looking for a rare color, a special interior package or extra accessories.
Prequalify to Speed Up the Buying Process
In addition to laying out your individual preferences, being aware of your auto loan options will also help you choose between a new or used GMC Terrain, as well as whether you should buy or lease. Get the process going and apply for financing online through GM Financial. Complete your auto loan application online and find out if you prequalify for a competitive rate, and get excited to buy your dream GMC Terrain in Roseville! You can also explore your leasing options by filling out a lease application at your nearest dealer.
*A retail installment contract that allows a customer to purchase a vehicle from an auto dealership. This contract is then sold or assigned by the dealership to GM Financial.

But privacy concerns often hinder online merchants from sharing names. Digital Impact believes it has a solution.
The e-mail marketing company's new Email Exchange allows its e-commerce clients to swap customer names in a way that lets the consumer decide which merchants can contact him. The cooperative service launches this week with seven marketers, including Omaha Steaks, Sharper Image and Tower Records.
"E-mail marketing is direct marketing on the Web, and Email Exchange is the best option for growing your existing customers," said Ray Kaupp, VP-marketing at Digital Impact, San Mateo, Calif.
The new service goes one step beyond permission-based e-mail marketing by providing a wider base of interested consumers without having to rent outside lists.
An e-mail is sent to a customer by Omaha Steaks, for example, with an Email Exchange link embedded in the message. A customer choosing to click through to Email Exchange can sign up to receive information about another company within the cooperative.
The distinction from garden variety e-mail marketing is lists remain highly qualified and are limited to a small number of merchants, Mr. Kaupp said.
In addition, the merchants control which Email Exchange companies appear in their own customers' e-mail messages.
"Omaha Steaks is personally endorsing the other companies participating in the e-mail exchange," said Stephanie Healy, interactive sales manager for OmahaSteaks.com, the online division of Omaha Steaks International.
And the other companies boost Omaha's credentials with new customers, she said.
"When someone has had a positive experience with another leading online merchant, they'll be more like to give Omaha a try," Ms. Healy said.
The payoff for the online merchants comes when the customer clicks through to a specific merchant from the link.
"These vendors end up owning the names," Mr. Kaupp said.
"The No. 1 request from vendors and partners is that they want to grow their house file e-mail list," he said.
And access to other merchants' databases is the latest Holy Grail in Internet marketing.
Internal e-mail lists have a greater response rate than any other tools online, including banner ads, rented e-mail lists and site sponsorships, Mr. Kaupp said.Digital Impact executives hope to have all the company's 35 clients in the Email Exchange program by this fall.
Clients include both traditional retailers venturing into online, such as The

CWC President Dr. Jo Anne McFarland and Board Chairman Charlie Krebs cut the ribbon dedicating the new $18 million Health and Science Center on the Riverton campus this afternoon. From left: Dr. Roger Gose, St. Rep. Patrick Goggles, former St. Rep. Del McOmie, Sen. Eli Bebout, Krebs, McFarland, Wyoming Community College Commission Executive Director Jim Rose; Dean Kathy Wells. (Ernie Over photo)
(Riverton, Wyo.) – The voters of Fremont County were thanked over and over again this noon during the dedication of Central Wyoming College's new $18-million state-of-the-art Health and Science Center.
"This day we are one big community. We are grateful for the public and private support," said CWC President Dr. Jo Anne McFarland as the dedication began. "We are celebrating the power of students and the power of investing in higher education today. It is a day for appreciation and celebration. This belongs to all of us."
The Chairman of the college's Board of Trustees, Charlie Krebs, said he thought this day would never come. "But here it is, on time and under budget," he said to a round of applause. "We now have adequate space and space for future expansion in emerging health fields for our students to prepare for good jobs to feed our local and state economies.
"This is a testimonial to the voters and to the vision, persistence and belief that this could happen," said Dr. Jim Rose, Executive Director of the Wyoming Community College Commission. "There is no facility to compare to this one anywhere," he said, "and the research programs here for undergraduates is second to none." Rose said a building trend in education are massive open online courses where up to 300,000 students have enrolled in one class, "But the completion rate is only eight percent. There is no substitute to one-on-one contact with professional instructors," he said.
It was pointed out during tours of the facility that the ratio of instructors to students in the college's health and science curriculum is 1:8.
Sen. Eli Bebout noted that "today is a great day, especially for students." Bebout said the new center "would provide students with the tools to effectively compete in today's world." The Riverton legislator said the dedication marked the culmination of a vision. As President McFarland noted in her remarks, Bebout also said, "we have learned from failure, but the voters made a good decision and the legislative funding that was approved was the right thing to do." The first time the college went to the voters, in November 2008, the issue was packaged with various county municipality needs and a recreation center proposal from Riverton. Voters soundly defeated the issue then.
However, a standalone $11.5 million bond issue for the Health and Science Center was approved by voters in November 2010 and the Wyoming Legislature contributed another $6.55 million in matching money to fund the project.
Rep. Patrick Goggles, a CWC graudate, said the college had greatly contributed to the education and job skills of so many people so close to home, and he said he was proud of the college's role in the community. He said that in his 10 years in the legislature, he always supported the college. He also noted the residents of the Wind River Reservation have been very supportive of the college. "The end result is a highly trained workforce and good paying jobs locally. This will improve health care in the area."
Former St. Rep. Del McOmie said he had been a strong supporter of the college, both in Lander and at the state legislature where he served seven terms in the House of Representatives. "I am proud of Lander's overwhelming support of this center (in the 2010 election) and that Lander's Kathy Wells developed the premier school of nursing in the nation right here," he said to thunderous applause.
The Dean of CWC's Health and Science Department, Kathy Wells, said the new facility represented a revolution in learning. "Students will be immersed in classrooms and labs developed around the student. This building was designed to put students in the heart of learning," she said. "Not only will it serve today's learners, but those of tomorrow as well." She praised the facility as being both safe for students and technologically advanced.
The ribbon was cut and public tours began, followed by a lunch on the lawns surrounding the new building.

Carbon Neutral

Development Director
Longmont Humane Society
It's 7:30 a.m. at Longmont (Colo.) Humane Society, and the day is in full swing
already. Outside, clouds conceal a sun that will later send temperatures soaring
into the high 90s, and a half dozen out of about 600 volunteers are already exercising
dogs on leash at the nearby county fairgrounds. Each dog has been carefully matched
with a restraint system that best fits his or her needs and personality, whether
it's a traditional collar and leash, a "gentle leader," or a "sensation" harness.
"I always knew I wanted to work with animals," says dog-walking volunteer Diana
Cinnamon, 67, of Longmont. "After I retired, I found [the Humane Society's] 'TLC'
classes, and I've been doing it now for about two years."
Meanwhile, in the play yards next to the pand new, 58,000 square foot LHS Allen
Center, behavior team member Sarah Clusman is keeping a watchful eye on 20 dogs,
big and little, of every conceivable mix, peed, color and personality, as they romp
and roll and take advantage of their daily opportunity to "just be dogs."
"Our play groups enable us to fulfill a basic need they have for dog-to-dog interaction
and socialization," says Sarah. "They come back into the kennels feeling satisfied
and content."
Inside, staff members working with dogs have already "scooped" kennels and provided
a nutritious peakfast to a horde of hungry canines before they headed out for a
walk or play group. As kennels free up, staff members move in, en masse, with high-pressure
hoses, disinfecting cleaner and squeegees to have them all ready for happily fed
and rested dogs – and most importantly, for public viewing when the doors open.
The cats, too, are getting a pawful of early morning attention. Staff members
are scooping litter boxes, providing a dollop of wet food (on top of the free-choice
dry food that is available for feeding all day), spot wiping kennels and providing
toys for enrichment. The cats with upper respiratory infections (simple kitty colds
- they're still available for adoption) are getting the same attention, but in a
separately ventilated part of the shelter to prevent disease transmission.
"We try to set it up so that if staff members are working with URI cats, they
don't work with the healthy cats," says kennel supervisor Cathy Durdin.
In service pods throughout the kennels, staff and volunteers are washing towels
and linens throughout the day, washing dishes, stocking up on food and other supplies,
and keeping up with spot cleaning in the kennels.
Just a few feet away from the kennel areas, well within earshot of all the meowing
and barking, the front-desk staff members have booted up computers and are going
through the daily ritual of trying to match lost pets pought in by the public or
animal-control officers over the previous five days.
"We work really hard to get animals home," says staff member Dori Detherow. "We
go through and if we see a potential match, we'll give a call."
On this particular morning, there were two dogs tied up in front of the shelter
when staff arrived. In the new building, there are "night drop" kennels which allow
people to leave animals in a secure, warm environment, but whoever came by the night
before didn't get that message.
There are more than 300 animals on site on this day, including scores of kittens
too young for adoption that are awaiting transfer to a foster-care program, where
they will be cared for until they are old enough and healthy enough to find new
In the back of the shelter, staff members are preparing for a day of spay-and-neuter
surgeries on shelter animals (all animals are sterilized before going to their adoptive
homes), laying out sterilized packs and supplies. Shelter veterinarian Dr. Steven
Stasiak will work steadily (and efficiently) for hours on end, doing his part to
ensure that LHS alumni do not contribute to the ongoing problem of pet overpopulation.
All that, and more, is in motion at Longmont Humane Society – and it's not even
9 a.m., when the doors open to the public. More often than not, there are people
waiting to come in by that time. Some are looking for lost dogs or cats, while others
just want to see who's in the shelter and start thinking about adoption (even though
adoption services don't commence until 11 a.m.).
While Longmont Humane Society, like any animal shelter, focuses on animals, the
business really is all about people. The "invisible" part of the operation includes
staff gearing up for fundraising events, contacting donors, preparing newsletters
and email blasts, writing grants, and everything else it takes to keep a shelter
that serves more than 5,000 animals a year running.
The wildly popular summer Kids and Critters Camp also is alive with giggling
and chatter at the back of the shelter. During two daily sessions, children ages
7 to 12 spend time working with the animals, participating in activities – for example,
walking dogs through non-toxic paint trays to create "pawprint" greeting cards –
and learning about humane values. They're not only having fun, but they will become
ambassadors to their families, schoolmates and the larger community to help raise
awareness about the issue of homeless pets.
When the clock strikes 11 a.m., many of our visitors already have picked out
a special someone they're interested in taking home. Adoption counselors work with
them to gather information to make sure it would be a good match, arrange for the
potential adopter to meet in a room with a cat or to take a dog out for a walk or
to the play yards to get better acquainted. If all goes well (for both pets and
people), a staff member will set up time to have the prospective new companion meet
with the family's other animals, to ascertain whether everybody will get along.
During the day, dogs often receive rubber Kongs that have been loaded with goodies
and frozen, to give them something to work on between walks and feedings. Cats receive
visits throughout the day from volunteers – including more than 160 youths age 13
and up – who play with them, pet them and groom them to keep them happy and healthy
during their stay at the shelter. Throughout the day, staff and volunteers are doing
everything from cleaning to walking, and adoptions to reclaims. It's truly a "three-ring
circus" – in the positive sense of the word: constant activity, focused on finding
homes for lost and abandoned animals in the community.
At day's end, everything runs in reverse, sort of like an old movie of a man
"jumping" from a swimming pool onto a diving board. Kennels are spiffed up for the
night, litter boxes emptied, new bedding laid down, evening chow served, and everyone
– cats, dogs, small mammals and birds – receives anything else they might need for
a comfortable night.
The doors close to the public at 6 p.m. – though on any given night there may
be a board meeting or volunteer training – and by 6:30 or 7 p.m., only a few stray
barks and random meows echo throughout the building, as the animals settle down
for a few hours of well-earned shuteye.
After all, they'll be up and at 'em again tomorrow – both people and pets – to
start all over again in hopes of finding loving forever homes for every animal.

Tornado Watch issued for many counties
WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — A Tornado Watch has been issued for Robeson, Columbus, Bladen, Brunswick, New Hanover, and Pender Counties until 4 PM Friday.
A strong cold front will march through the East Coast today bringing the chance for storms with gusty winds. Air is already very warm and moist ahead of this front, meaning some storms could become severe.
The action will start in Western Counties first around lunchtime, with storms making it to the coast last in the afternoon. The main threat with this system is gusty winds between 20-30 mph.
Remember, trees and power-lines have already been weakened by the past winter storm. That means gusty winds could be potentially damaging to property.
For more updates, follow WWAY on Facebook and Twitter.

Usain Bolt stumbles to 100m victory in 9.88 seconds
Usain Bolt stumbles to 100m victory in 9.88 seconds
Olympic sprint champion Usain Bolt sounded a strong warning to his rivals for the Rio Games by winning the 100 metres at the Racers Grand Prix in Kingston in 9.88 seconds on Saturday after recovering from a stumble.
Bolt clocked the second fastest time of the year behind Frenchman Jimmy Vicaut's 9.86 and despite the bad start the six-time Olympic champion caught up with the strong field, which included Yohan Blake and Asafa Powell, at 60 metres with time to ease up in the last five metres.
"I'm happy I got a season best. It was not a perfect race but I was able to win," Bolt said after the race.
Nickel Ashmeade and Blake were second and third respectively in 9.94, while Powell finished fourth in 9.98 seconds.
"I almost fall over... all I was trying to control it [start] but it's just one of those things it comes, it goes," Bolt said.
"I think I dragged my foot too hard so it kind of propelled me forward and then I just tried to correct myself, not try to panic and just make my way through."
Bolt said his time will put him in a good place ahead of Jamaica's trials, starting June 30.
"It means that I'm in very good nick. As I said the more I run the faster I'll get, the smoother my running will become and take it from there," he said.

Like many employees in this burgeoning IT services industry, my background isn't in technology. But when I joined Internap, I was confident in my ability to learn quickly and rise to new challenges.
Before my interview with Internap, I did my research and stumbled upon numerous articles praising this so called "MIRO" technology (I later found out this rhymes with HERO), Internap's proprietary IP service. What in the world is this, I thought. I assumed there were only a couple of internet connections…like dial-up, when I used to pick up the phone and knock my Dad offline and get sworn at, and the high-speed type that kids these days don't realize the world was ever without.
Boy, was I wrong. So get this—MIRO isn't an actual internet connection, but it proactively finds the fastest way to get to your "internet destination" over numerous carriers. How crazy is that? That's like a race between a 4×100 Olympic dream team (let's go Carl Lewis, Michael Johnson, Jesse Owens and of course Usain Bolt) vs. me after Thanksgiving dinner. The technology actually allows MIRO to hand off your traffic to the fastest route possible over numerous active carriers. Seriously! How crazy is that?
Apparently back in the old days, servers would see the shortest number of "hops" between destinations and try to go that route. What Managed Internet Route OptimizerTM (MIRO) does is calculate latency (the time delay waiting for data to pass, for those newbs out there), and select the shortest route. All the time. Who cares how many stops? It's about time, right?
Once I understood this I honestly said out loud: "Wait, is this fair?!"
What I thought of was financial transactions, including mobile payments. Then online gaming. And then bidding on online auctions. Then my mind really started to race. In today's tech world, how much of an insane advantage is it to always have the fastest route to wherever you're going? The applications are endless.
Crazy, but it's true. It's a patented technology that only Internap has, and I have to say working for a company that creates pretty amazing things like this makes me thankful I decided to take on this challenge.

Blackhawks goalie Corey Crawford shuts out Blues in Game 3
The assessment was about as damning as a coach is usually willing to say about his goaltender this time of year.
"He said he needs to be better, and he needs to be better," Chicago Blackhawks head coach Joel Quenneville assessed of his netminder Corey Crawford on the eve of his team's crucial Game 3 clash with the St. Louis Blues.
Crawford was better when the defending Stanley Cup champions needed it most.
Perfect, in fact, with a 34-save shutout in Monday's 2-0 victory in Chicago, and the Blackhawks are on the board in their opening-round playoff series.
The Blues still have a 2-1 lead in the best-of-seven affair, but the Hawks have Crawford, whose only crime in the first two tilts of the best-of-seven series was surrendering late game-tying goals and then overtime winners in each of them, to thank for not letting the series turn into a do-or-die situation.
"I thought it was a great response and tremendous effort by him," Quenneville said. "He was square, he was solid, in control. It was a real solid game for him and a tight one throughout. Three games in a row. It's been a very intense series and extremely close."
Game 4 will be Wednesday in the Windy City.
The chants of "Corey! Corey!" from the sellout crowd of 22,112 at the United Center came out in the third period and the applause reached a feverish pitch at the final buzzer.
They were well earned.
The Blackhawks never trailed, but don't for a second think they were the better team from start to finish. Crawford provided saves in all manners, be them against breakaways, deflections from the doorstep or scrambles in a pressure-packed situation.
"There is no pressure. I think it's more reality," Crawford said. "That was a really important game for us. It's an exciting one, too, coming back in this building.
"We were all excited and we had that calm, cool, confidence in this group. Our veterans, our leaders, led the way throughout the whole day and the last couple of days just keeping calm and collected and everyone else followed."
It's a good thing Crawford was on his game, because it took a flukey goal early going for the winner.
Blackhawks captain Johnathan Toews used Kevin Shattenkirk as a partial screen when he sent a wrister that squeezed through the legs of Blues goalie Ryan Miller.
"Just not a good goal. We'll leave it at that," Miller said.
Marcus Kruger sealed the win with an empty netter, and this time the Hawks didn't surrender the lead in the final moments, as was the case in the first two outings.
Talk about a huge psychological boost.
"It was tough walking in here yesterday down two-zip and could have had one in there at least," Quenneville said. "So it was two brutal losses, and today it was tight at the end as well, but I think that we can get a lot of momentum and enthusiasm off it, and certainly some confidence down the stretch as well."
That said, the Blues still have the upper hand and aren't feeling they've lost that much momentum because they played a strong game.
"I believe this team can score at any time," said Miller, who made 23 saves. "We just got into a situation today where it just didn't work out. You saw a few pucks were laying there for rebounds, we tipped one just wide, a couple pucks even just scooted by the net. That's the game of hockey, a game of inches.
"We were working hard and got rewarded the first two games, and tonight we worked hard but just didn't get that final reward, but you have to keep believing you can do it, keep moving forward. Just business as usual here."
Likewise, the Hawks are still behind and know they've only taken one step.
"It feels good to win, but there is no time for relief," centre Michal Handzus said. "We're still down 2-1, we have to get ready for the next game. It's not relief. It feels good when you win, but we have to start focusing on Game 4.

General Mills Applauded for Animal Welfare Progress
The HSUS praises General Mills at its annual shareholder meeting for its forward-thinking animal welfare policy.
The Humane Society of the United States praised General Mills (NYSE: GIS) at its annual shareholder meeting for its forward-thinking animal welfare policy. Earlier this year, General Mills announced it would switch one million eggs within its supply chain to cage-free.
"By taking this positive step, General Mills will improve the lives of animals," said Josh Balk, director of corporate policy for The HSUS' farm animal protection division. "The Humane Society of the United States applauds General Mills for beginning to tackle this important issue."
There has been increased attention to the welfare of egg-laying hens nationwide, and The HSUS is working with consumers and retailers to choose eggs from hens in higher welfare production systems. The HSUS also recently reached an agreement with the United Egg Producers, the national trade association for the U.S. egg industry, and the two groups are jointly advocating for federal legislation in Congress to phase in new housing systems over the next 15 to 18 years, giving hens about twice the current amount of space, providing consumers more information through a labeling program and making other animal welfare improvements.
Prior to this year's announcement, General Mills committed to moving all the eggs in its Häagen-Dazs product line in Europe to cage-free. Major food manufacturers Kraft, Sara Lee, ConAgra, and Otis Spunkmeyer are switching millions of eggs in their products to cage-free. Unilever adopted a policy to convert 100 percent of its eggs to cage-free, including the 350 million eggs used annually by Hellmann's mayonnaise. Major restaurant chains—including Subway, Burger King, Wendy's, Denny's, Sonic, Quiznos, Hardee's, Carl's Jr. and Red Robin—use cage-free eggs. Supermarket chains including Wal-Mart, Costco and Safeway have also taken steps to increase cage-free egg sales.
The General Mill's annual shareholder meeting is on Sept. 26 at 11 a.m. at the Children's Theatre Company, 2400 Third Ave. S. in Minneapolis.

text: Conservation: Story Story Posted 06-03-2013 Making Way for Maine's Atlantic Salmon By: USFWS Permitted use provided by: U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service Years and years ago, hundreds of thousands of Atlantic salmon made their epic migration from the oceans of Greenland to their natal rivers in Maine. Now it would be a privilege to see even a few of these powerful creatures. While a number of threats contributed to the decline of this endangered fish, one of the biggest obstacles to the recovery of Atlantic salmon is blocked access to their freshwater spawning habitat. Steve Koenig, along with former U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service attorney Joris Naiman, were chosen by the Service as 2012 Recovery Champions for endangered species conservation. Learn more. Photo credit: USFWS. Steve Koenig of Eastport, Maine, wanted to do something about it. In 2001, he became the executive director of SHARE (Salmon Habitat and River Enhancement) in Downeast Maine, and since 2005, his work has improved 85 miles of salmon habitat. What is the problem you are helping to solve, regarding Atlantic salmon and other native fish? (Steve) SHARE draws attention to the many problems that poorly designed road-stream crossings have on the recovery of endangered Atlantic salmon and other native fish species. When culverts are the wrong size or in the wrong place, they can be a barrier for fish and water movement, affecting habitat and water quality. Since 2005, SHARE has either removed or replaced 159 culverts in streams that now allow unobstructed fish passage and natural stream functions. What motivates you to work for endangered Atlantic salmon? The sole mission of SHARE, which is a non-profit and was created in 1994, is to support habitat restoration. Given the mission of SHARE, early on I was able to see the need for a program to engage in active on-the-ground habitat restoration. Although there are multiple agencies and groups associated with salmon restoration, no one was actively involved with habitat restoration on the Downeast Maine rivers. Internally we developed that program within SHARE. Personally, I receive a great deal of satisfaction when we can take on a site and address the habitat issue. With road crossings, it is a simple matter of allowing the stream to flow through the crossing in its natural state. By restoring the natural stream flow, fish passage and habitat improvement become a natural function of restored stream processes. This road crossing culvert is perched too high for fish to get through. Constricted flow creates a high-velocity barrier that migrating aquatic animals can't swim through. Find out what's being done in E. Peter Steenstra's story, SHARE Downeast at http://www.fws.gov/eddies. Photo credit: E.Peter Steenstra/USFWS How does it go down – what work is done to benefit Atlantic salmon? SHARE's accomplishments are the direct result of tapping into the capacity of its member stakeholders – from landowners where these habitat issues are found to state and federal resource agencies. Together, they help us with technical assistance and funding support. Quite often we work with high school and college students to plant trees and perform additional minor channel modification. We also work on remnant log drive dams and large wood additions. Once sites are identified, we work with volunteers from SHARE's stakeholder groups to complete the projects using hand tools and hand labor. It may seem like a lot of work (and it is), but it is very gratifying particularly at the end of the day when you can see what you have accomplished. Who do you work with? We work with large landowners, land trusts, Maine Department of Marine Resources, Maine Forest Service, Maine Department of Environmental Protection, Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, USDA-Natural Resources Conservation Service, Atlantic Salmon Federation, The Nature Conservancy, Audubon, University of Maine, and Washington Academy. Steve's background is in aquatic ecology. He grew up in Michigan sailing on Lake Huron and paddling many of the remote smaller rivers. Photo courtesy of SHARE. What do you hope to result from your work? A few years ago, we were completing a number of good projects each year, but the task before us was simply enormous and daunting. Hope for Atlantic salmon restoration was best described as pretty low. At that time, my hope was to draw attention to habitat issues for salmon with the hope of gaining momentum. Some people suggested that while it may be to late for salmon, the work we are doing might benefit brook trout to the point that in 50 years they wouldn't need to be listed. However, in 2009, SHARE received major funding from American Recovery and Reinvestment Act grants through NOAA and USFWS. We were able to complete over 100 road crossings in a concentrated area of the Machias River from 2009 to 2011. Those efforts demonstrated that as resources become available, we are on the right track and can work at a pace that is biologically significant for salmon restoration. My plan now is to continue to promote the positive outcomes we can achieve, for Atlantic salmon, brook trout, and for the watershed as a whole. We have the right mix of partners, clear objectives based on threat assessments, and the capacity to get things done. We simply need to address the age-old problem of identifying funding sources and aim capacity and resources at additional concentrated focus areas. Do you have a personal connection to Atlantic salmon or stream restoration? With Project SHARE, I am able to work in an outdoor setting on projects that few who are in the business of conservation business ever get the chance to experience. I am able to identify a threat, develop the solution, plan and then carry it out. The ultimate satisfaction comes at the end of the day, once the excavators and pumps are shut off, workers leave the site, and I am able to quietly sit and hear a stream that once again can flow naturally. It is a feeling that can't really be described; it can only be experienced.

As consumer confidence rises to a three-year high, the National Retail Federation offers yet another sign of a more upbeat consumer.
The retail industry trade group is out with a survey that says more Americans are planning to splurge a little if they receive a tax refund this year.
About 13.2 percent of Americans said they will spend their refund on a big ticket item such as a television set or furniture, up from 12.5 percent last year.
About 11.9 percent are earmarking the money for a vacation, compared with 10.0 percent last year who eyed a trip.
About 29.7 percent of Americans say they will use the money on everyday items. That's also higher than last year, when 28.8 percent of those surveyed said the money would be spent on day-to-day expenses.
"Despite the difficult unemployment situation across the country, Americans receiving a tax refund this year seem eager to plough this money back into the economy," said NRF President and CEO Matthew Shay. "With sales momentum continuing to build, NRF is becoming more bullish about the economic recovery."
Still, there are a good number of people who will be squirreling their tax refunds away for a rainy day. About 42.1 percent of those surveyed by BIGresearch — who did the survery for NRF — said they would put their refund in savings. That's also higher than last year, when 40.3 percent said they would save it.
Fewer people will take the money and pay off debt. About 41.9 percent said that's where their refund money would go, compared with last year when 43.9 percent said debt reduction was the plan.
The economic boost from tax refunds should be felt soon. According to the survey, 63.9 percent of Americans will have filed their taxes by the end of February, meaning that some returns have already been received or are on their way.

nah it works fine. update firmware and try. likewise also do hardware reset
hope this answers.. the concept is the same if u use arduino or other microcontroller using SPI… wikipedia spi and i2c to get basic info. and look at library and try to figure out the way from there
Three things required to make the library work in Arduino 1.01 IDE. I am using arduino uno r3 stacked with this wifly shield…
1) Understand the program carefully. Library is good but has few flaws, might need to re program for added functionality.. Im adding UDP packets looking at other libraries. should not be too hard…. Id advise to follow the speaker jet tutorial and look at water sensor project…
2) Change the struct for SPI configuration as stated in tutorial comments. So will require to change the header file conf… struct SPI_UART_cfg SPI_Uart_config = {0x50,0x00,0x03,0x10};
struct SPI_UART_cfg SPI_Uart_config = {0x60,0x00,0x03,0x10}; if doing the tutorial for speak jet…
In the library the struct changes in SpiUart.cpp and only has two bytes and need to config other bits in the header file
change it to from something else to
struct SPI_UART_cfg SPI_Uart_config = { 0x03, 0x10 };
3) Try to run all the library examples.. The problem I got stuck with was with the server example. So I developed my own server using the tutorial and that seemed to work however the example server did not . Found that it was just a delay of 200 ms required in void loop() function at start… there should be delay just before server is checked again..
delay(200); WiFlyClient client = server.available();
That should make the library run ..
hope it helps and there is my weekend…
No public wish lists :(

Environmental crime covers acts that breach environmental legislation and cause significant harm or risk to the environment and human health. The most known areas of environmental crime are the illegal emission or discharge of substances into air, water or soil, the illegal trade in wildlife, illegal trade in ozone-depleting substances and the illegal shipment or dumping of waste. Environmental crimes cause significant damage to the environment in Europe and the world. At the same time they provide for very high profits for perpetrators and relatively low risks of detection. Very often, environmental crimes have a cross border aspect. Environmental crime is a serious and growing problem that needs to be tackled at European level.
The problem of environmental crime has been discussed in many international and European fora for many years. Building on this work, the European Commission adopted a proposal for a directive aiming to ensure the protection of the environment through criminal law.
After lengthy institutional discussions and two judgments of the European Court of Justice on the extent of the Community's competence in the area of criminal law, the Council and the European Parliament agreed on the text of the directive on the protection of the environment through criminal law.
The Justice and Home Affairs Council formally adopted the directive on 24 October 2008.
The Directive will have to be transposed by Member States by December 2010.
Directive 2008/99/EC on the protection of the environment through criminal law
Why a Directive to protect the environment through criminal law?
The available information shows that there are large differences between the criminal sanctions provided for environmental offences in the Member States. The existing criminal sanctions are not sufficiently stringent to ensure a high level of environmental protection throughout the Community (see studies carried out by the Commission)
Main content of the Directive: minimum requirements to be implemented in national criminal laws

It's summer in London, it's a lovely Sunday morning, my sponsored half marathon is looming so what could be better than a full circuit of Hyde Park? It turned out to be an excellent idea and I zoomed round taking in all the sights in no time.
I saw the work going on to completely reinvigorate Kensington Palace and give it a grand garden entrance; the wonderful formal fountains on the north side of the park; people take a horse ride around the park, those jogging and more unusually those ski-ing! The Horse Guards were returning to their barracks and the Albert Hall and Albert Memorial were looking at their best. The photo in the order listed here and you can see what a wonderful morning it was!
After completing a full circuit I decided to treat myself to a visit to the annual Serpentine Gallery Pavilion. Each year this fine gallery holds a competition for the best design for its summer outdoor pavilion – this year's competition was won by Peter Zumthor, a Swiss architect, with his design Hortus Conclusus, meaning Enclosed Garden. It has a plain dark exterior with several doors through to an interior garden and cafe via interior dark passageways. The garden is conceived as a peaceful place which is enclosed and protected. The cafe bustle somewhat disturbs the peace but it is an impressive and interesting structure. Here are some photos: of the Serpentine Gallery itself; the Pavilion exterior with people entering and a view taken further back to give more perspective; and, the interior garden.

OFRF has awarded a grant to Iris Vaisman and Dr. Martin Entz at the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg to help increase the use of green manures (GMs), which play an essential role in organic grain-based systems on the Canadian prairies by contributing to soil health, cash crop yield, and grain quality.
While the use of GMs is well documented on research farms, a recent scan conducted by the Prairie Organic Grain Initiative (POGI), indicated poor adoption of GMs and lack of proper GM management. The goal of this research project is to increase the use and proper management of GMs by improving the information flow between researchers and farmers, in order to assess current on-farm GM use and how this affects on-farm nutrient budgets.
Dr. Entz has developed a co-design model that helps researchers and farmers work together on nutrient budgeting. The research team will visit certified organic farms to collect and analyze green manure biomass samples for nutrients and micronutrients. The following year, cash crop grain samples will be similarly analyzed. The data will then be used to examine nutrient budgeting on farm and encourage higher adoption of GMs for improved soil health and farm resiliency.
The grant is one of six research grants OFRF awarded in 2016 to address organic farming challenges. In a national survey of organic farmers conducted by OFRF in 2015, weed and pest management, soil health, and water management during drought were identified as foremost concerns.
Since its founding in 1990, OFRF has awarded 332 grants to organic researchers and farmers, investing more than $3,000,000. All research results are freely available in our online database at ofrf.org. Read about the 2016 research grants here.

A Brief Background on the Taman Shud Case
The Taman Shud Case, otherwise known as the Case of the Somerton Man, is the case of an unidentified dead body found on Somerton Beach in Adelaide, Australia at 6:30 a.m. on December 1, 1948. It is unclear whether the man was murdered, committed suicide or died of natural causes. This, on top of a number of mysterious clues in the case, has made it one of the most lasting mysteries in Australia's history. In fact, the case is so popular that Stephen King makes mention of it in "The Colorado Kid" and part of the "Haven" series is based on the case.
On the night of November 30, 1948, at least two groups of passersby saw a man who looked like the man found the following morning sitting on the edge of the beach. He sat in the same place that the Somerton Man was found. The witnesses say that they did not get a very good look at him, but it was the same man from what they could tell. He sat barely moving when he was seen around 7 p.m. By 7:30-8:00 p.m., there was no discernible movement. One witness said he had wondered if the man was alive, but assumed he was drunk.
Evidence Found at the Scene
A man sitting in that very spot was found early the next morning — dead. He wore a nice suit, pointing to at least a marginal amount of prosperity. There was an expensive British cigarette behind his ear, not sold in Australia. Another half-smoked cigarette of the same brand nestled between his cheek and collar. An interesting find was a pack of those cigarettes in his pockets, placed in the case of a cheaper brand. Also in the man's pockets was a book of matches, a used bus ticket to Glenelg and an unused train ticket to Henley Beach.
All of the tags on the man's clothing were removed, making identification difficult. He was not wearing a hat and his shoes were reportedly suspiciously clean. Another, very mysterious, piece of evidence was found much later, in a hidden pocket in the man's pants. This piece of evidence was a scrap of paper cut from a book that said "Taman Shud." The backside of the piece of paper was blank, but police traced it to the poetry book "The Rubaiyat" by Omar Khayyam.
After some searching, police were able to find the very book from whence the words had been taken. A man had found the book discarded in the backseat of his car, with apparently no explanation as to how it had come to be there. At the back of the book was the following sequence in pencil. Police believed it to be a code, but it has yet to be cracked. The strikethrough on the second series makes it look like a list, as well.
Also found written in the back of the book was the phone number of a woman who allegedly lived and worked near the place where the Somerton Man was found. Her identity has been protected and her name given only as Jestyn. Jestyn once had a copy of "The Rubaiyat" and police tracked it to a man she had given it to years before. He still had the book and it was not unusual in anyway. Police dismissed the woman and man as possible witnesses and dismissed the book, given that there was no evidence that it had anything to do with the case.
Leads in the Taman Shud Case
During the time that police were investigating the scant few leads, numerous people claimed that the Somerton Man was missing persons that they knew of. In every case, police were able to ascertain that the man was not the missing man in question. In some instances, missing people showed up at the police station to show that they were not the Somerton Man.
The autopsy on the Somerton Man showed something quite interesting — there was no evidence of the cause of death. The man was 5′ 11″ with green eyes and blondish red hair. He seemed in excellent health, save for congestion and bleeding in several organs. He was athletic, possibly a dancer or a runner, but not a laborer, as evidenced by the pristine condition of his hands. The doctor who performed the autopsy said that it looked like a particularly dangerous poison that was extremely difficult to identify in an autopsy. He also said that it could have been a natural death, though he did not find the underlying cause. Either way, there was no way of knowing whether the man was suicidal or not, so even if they had found poison in his system, it did not make it a murder. In the end, no cause of death was determined.
Police did suggest that they found his lack of i.d. to be evidence of a suicide. Frankly, this writer finds that to be shoddy evidence, at best. Lack of identification on his person could have meant anything from the dramatic, such as he was a spy who didn't want to be found — corroborated by his cigarettes, — to the mundane, such as he left his identification at home. He had very little money on him and no wallet, which would be a better indication of suicide, but he could just as easily have brought little money with him on a day trip. That idea was squashed when evidence that he was certainly not on a local jaunt came in a month and two weeks after his body was found.
The Adelaide train station gave a suitcase to the police that the man had left in their coatroom the day before he died. (It should be mentioned that the time of death was given as 2 a.m.) In the suitcase was a suit jacket, stenciling brush, pants with sand in the cuff, screwdriver, scissors with sharpened points, thread, pajamas, underwear, dressing gown, shaving utensils, slippers, knife and laundry bag. The only labels on the clothing were the name T. Keane — spelled Kean in one instance — and dry cleaning numbers. A thorough investigation turned up no Keane's or Kean's in the area with a connection to the case. The jacket, however, led straight to America. British cigarettes and an American jacket made this man look more and more like a murdered James Bond. Unfortunately, they were unable to trace Somerton Bond's jacket to an exact location in the United States.
In the end, the Taman Shud Case boils down to two things — a ton of evidence that leads nowhere and a lack of evidence that borders on the suspicious (missing clothes tags). Even the place of death is uncertain because some feel that if the Somerset Man had died there, there would be vomit on him and in the vicinity of his body. Everything that came up about this case made it more mysterious. Seventy-four years later and it still does not make sense.

We charge our normal hourly fee ($90.00/hr), prorated to the time it takes to do your update. For instance, if it takes 10 minutes, you get billed for 10 minutes, with no minimum charge.

Although we do offer special programming called a "Content Management System" that allows you to look after your website content yourself, it is often more cost effective for you to hire us to do update your site for you.

Earlier this year, Das Racist rapper Kool A.D. released his Bay-centric 51 mixtape. And now the spare and laconic "Manny Pacquiao," one of the standout tracks from the tape, has a video in which Kool A.D. hangs out on a farm with an assault rifle, a crossbow, some dancing girls, a pizza, some goats, and Lakutis in an American Gothic costume. Everyone involved clearly had some fun making this one. Watch it below.

Swimming in our Rivers & Ocean
We monitor recreational water spots over the Summer to check on their suitability for swimming. Every week over summer (1 November - 31 March) we check over 30 popular swimming and recreation spots - coastal beaches, rivers and Lake Tutira. We post the data and guidelines here so that you can stay healthy in the water.
We use colour coded symbols to indicate suitability (see the legend on the map), with the red symbol indicating that it is not suitable for swimming.
Tutira Lake
We have classified this lake as generally unsuitable for recreational activities. There may be times when the health risk is low, however we are unable to advise when these occur.
Summer Event Exclusion Zones
During summer many of our popular swimming and boating areas are used for sports and competitive events and exclusion zones are in place for these events to be run safely.
Weekly results
Each Monday during summer we sample water at these sites and a lab test tells us how much bacteria is present. As there's a delay in getting results to you through the Public Health Unit, the Rule of Toe (below) is a handy guide.
Long term results
This gives you a more general guide using the 'Suitability for Recreational Grade' which is based on 5 years of data and a catchment risk assessment. The most recent annual report on the 2013/14 summer results is at the bottom of this page.
Another reliable source of information is the joint regional council LAWA (Land Air Water Aotearoa) website: www.lawa.org.nz which enables you to compare water quality across the country as well as the region.
Rule of Toes!
If it's been raining heavily, our best advice is to stay out of the water for 3 days. A handy guide is if you can't see your toes when standing knee-deep in water, then water quality is not the best for a swim.
Clive River, Waipuka Stream and Puhokio Stream are generally less suitable for swimming or recreational use, due to higher potential bacteria levels. The Clive River and Puhokio stream are sampled fortnightly as they have permanent signs up warning of the health risks. HBRC, community groups and landowners are working to improve water quality in these places.
Signs to look out for
These are the signs to look out for when the water quality is not safe for swimming, or not safe to collect food from the sea.

text: I have a few thoughts/questions about the processor performance settings on the iMac G5. I understand that in the System Preferences you can change the setting from Automatic to Highest. 1. How much of a difference in the speed is there between the two settings? (Based on personal experience or benchmarks online...) 2. What kind of wear and tear does it put on the processor when you run it at Highest? More specifically, is it going to cut the life of my computer in half? lol or how much does it affect it? I want to get good performance out of it but not cut the life of the computer either.
