Product Description
P1143. EARL WILD: Sonata #7 in D; Appassionata Sonata #23 in f; Symphony #1 in C [Liszt transcription] (all Beethoven). Ivory Classics 70905, recorded 1984-98. - 644057090524
"Beethoven''s sonatas are milestones in piano literature. And when two masters meet in profound rapport — a composer second to none and a pianist whose temperament is so totally suited to the music — the results are a melding of reverence and passion. As the living dean of American pianists, Earl Wild has been performing Beethoven's music for 75 years. Mr. Wild is the kindred soul and perfect spokesman who divulges the musical secrets of the master. In Earl Wild's interpretations the sonatas abound in the vitality and irresistible urgency. This recital of major piano sonatas is made even more delectable with the inclusion of Franz Liszt piano transcription of Beethoven''s First Symphony, Op.21. This disc includes virtuoso music, full of emotion and energy - performed unforgettably!"
"Wild plays everything with consummate artistry. He has a technique that matches Horowitz's. But he also has a poetic sensitivity that refutes once-and-for-all the charge of superficial virtuosity."
- John Beversluis, AMERICAN RECORD GUIDE, Sept./Oct., 1999
"Pianist Earl Wild died on 23 January, 2010 at the age of 94. Since then he has been widely lamented as the last of the Romantic virtuosi. He devoted his entire life to his art music was his love from the age of four. He received extraordinary accolades over the years, being called a super virtuoso and one of the 20th century s greatest pianists. Earl Wild was an artist with the rare gift of being able to communicate serious ideas in an easy and elegant way that never took away from his own intellectualism. His ability to bring the tradition of the art of the transcription to a mid-20th and 21st century audience in a way that was uniquely his own garnered him the reputation as the finest transcriber of our time. He was an important and well-respected musician as well as a special individual who held true to his own integrity throughout his life. Mr. Wild also made many extraordinary contributions to the American musical scene. Whether it was in a concert or at a master class, Earl Wild held both his audiences and students spellbound with his abilities, his knowledge, his imagination, his musical intelligence, sensitivity and artistry, along with his tremendous sense of humor."
- Ralph Lockwood, 18 Dec., 2011
"Liszt was often called a 'piano-centaur', so at one was he with the instrument. Earl Wild could be described in similar terms. The gift of absolute pitch revealed itself at age three as his avidity for the keyboard took prodigious strides. At six he read music fluently, and before he was 12 he was studying piano with Selmar Janson, a pupil of d'Albert and Scharwenka (both students of Liszt). Busoni's 'disciple', Egon Petri; Paul Doguereau, a student of Paderewski and Ravel; and Elena Barčre, wife of the phenomenal Russian pianist Simon Barčre, provided later tuition. With his superb mécanique and enormous hands, Wild was predestined to take his place among the great pianists, while his training and place in time spread before him the riches, traditions, and secrets of Romantic pianism. In his early teens, Wild was already composing, arranging, and transcribing music for radio station KDKA in Pittsburgh while playing piano and celesta in the Pittsburgh Symphony under Otto Klemperer. NBC hired him as a staff pianist in 1937, a stint that included playing under Toscanini in the NBC Symphony and with whom Wild gave a legendary broadcast performance of Gershwin's RHAPSODY IN BLUE in 1942, thereby coming to national notice as a major artist. During World War II, Wild served in the U.S. Navy playing fourth flute in the Navy Band, performing recitals at the White House, and frequently accompanying Eleanor Roosevelt to play 'The Star Spangled Banner' on her speaking tours. From 1945 to 1968, Wild was employed by ABC as staff pianist, conductor, and composer. But it was as an interpreter of Romantic literature, especially Liszt - and such neglected figures as Thalberg, Herz, Scharwenka, Balakirev, Paderewski, Godowsky, and Medtner - that Wild was most notable. And, like them, he cultivated the art of piano transcription, re-creating the songs of Rachmaninov and Gershwin in his own omnicompetent style. Since his first recording in 1939, Wild compiled an imposing legacy of recorded performances combining scholarly savoir faire with the flair and visceral impact of the born showman. He was internationally in demand as a teacher."

How to Write a Program/Enhancing code
Usually create variables that will represent certain data types that you want to represent or simulate in your program in comparison to the particular problem needing to be solved or real world simulation-i.e. the basis for your program
Then create or use function/methods that you want your program to perform in order to achieve a specific tasks or real world simulation.
This is usually done in block methods or modules, in which you encapsulate or wrap all necessary data (representations) and methods (and arguments/parameters) into an object / class, which best simulates the basis of what the program is supposed to represent...this is turn is called generating code.
Continuous improvementEdit
Many developers recommend always keeping the code in a state that is ready to build and release to customers at any time. Some projects have a nightly build, while other people recommend checking in a ready-to-build coherent group of edits every 20 minutes.[1]

Born: April 22, 1724
Königsberg, East Prussia
(now Kaliningrad, Russia)
Died: February 12, 1804
Königsberg, East Prussia
German philosopher
The major works of the German philosopher Immanuel Kant offer an analysis of theoretical and moral reason and the ability of human judgment. He had a great influence on the intellectual movements of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
The fourth of nine children of Johann Georg and Anna Regina Kant, Immanuel Kant was born in the town of Königsberg, East Prussia, on April 22, 1724. Johann Kant was a harness maker, and the large family lived a humble life. The family belonged to a Protestant religious group of Pietists (a German religious movement whose members strongly believed in religious experience and biblical study), and a concern for religion touched every aspect of their lives. Although Kant became critical of formal religion, he continued to admire the "praiseworthy conduct" of Pietists. Kant's elementary education was at Saint George's Hospital School and then at the Collegium Fredericianum, a Pietist school, where he remained from 1732 until 1740. Here he gained a deep appreciation for the classics of Latin literature, especially the poet Lucretius.
In 1740 Kant entered the University of Königsberg. He became interested in philosophy, mathematics, and the natural sciences. The death of Kant's father in 1746 left him without income. He became a private tutor for seven years in order to have enough time and money to continue his education. During this period Kant published several papers dealing with scientific questions. The most important was the "General Natural History and Theory of the Heavens" in 1755. In this work Kant concluded the origin of the solar system was a result of the gravitational (having to do with the force exerted between bodies of matter) connection of atoms (the smallest pieces of matter). In the same year Kant presented a Latin treatise, "On Fire," to qualify for the doctoral degree.
Kant spent the next fifteen years (1755–1770) as a lecturer. In order to live he lectured between twenty-six and twenty-eight hours a week. Despite this enormous teaching burden, Kant continued to publish papers on various topics. He finally achieved a professorship at Königsberg in 1770.
At the age of fifty-seven Kant published the first edition of the Critique of Pure Reason (1781; 2d ed. 1787). This enormous work is one of the most important and difficult books in Western thought. The aim of the critique is to explain how experience and reason interact in thought and understanding. The Critique of Pure Reason is a methodology (a collection of methods and rules) of how "understanding and reason [the power of understanding] can know apart from experience." This revolutionary proposal means that the mind organizes our experiences into the way the world appears and the way that we think about the world. Any experience is placed into one of these categories so that it can be understood. Kant also wrote that the mind can have knowledge of things that have or have not been experienced, but these are only possibilities. Kant does not say that the mind creates objects—only the conditions under which objects are noticed and understood. We can never know noumenal reality (theoretical objects or ideas that are understood by thought alone) with any certainty.
Kant suggests that the theories of God, freedom, and immorality (something that goes against ideas or right and wrong) are not proved or disproved through the use of reason, nor can the use of scientific methods prove or disprove their existence. The idea of them is beyond the realm of human experience. Kant expressed that faith in God, freedom, and immorality are rational beliefs because their existence makes an orderly and moral world a possibility.
In 1783 Kant restated the main outlines of his first critique in a brief, analytic form in the Prolegomena to Any Future Metaphysics. In
While theoretical reason is concerned with knowledge, practical reason is concerned with will, or self-determination. There is only one human reason, but after it decides what it can know, it must determine how it shall act. Thus the freedom of the will determines how one shall lead his life. And the basic, reasonable principle of a free morality (a morality that one is free to choose) is some universal and necessary law which follows. This principle is called by Kant the "Categorical Imperative," which states that a man should act in a way that is acceptable and applicable to all people. In questioning the outcome of man's freedom, Kant insists that practical reason assumes the immortality of the soul and the existence of God as the conditions for true freedom.
In 1790 Kant completed his third critique, which attempts to draw these conflicting ideas together. The Critique of Judgment attempts to connect the concepts of nature with the concepts of freedom.
Although Kant continued to write until shortly before his death, the "critical works" are the source of his influence. Only a life of extraordinary self-discipline enabled him to accomplish his task. He was barely five feet tall and extremely thin, and his health was fragile. Toward the end of his life he became increasingly antisocial and bitter over the growing loss of his memory and capacity for work. Kant became totally blind and finally died on February 12, 1804, in Königsberg.

Intel Suggests Replacing Headphone Jacks with USB Type-C
In a detailed proposal published yesterday on AnandTech, Intel has highlighted the advantages of the new USB-C connector, suggesting that it should be used as a replacement for the 3.5mm headphone jack in future smartphones and tablets. The company has joined Chinese firm LeEco in promoting the new standard, who recently introduced a bunch of smartphones without a 3.5mm port, relying on the charging and data slot to output audio as well.
At its Shenzhen developer forum this month, Intel revealed that it is finalizing the USB Type-C Digital Audio technology and plans to release its specification later in Q2. The company said that it is working on updating the USB Audio Device Class 2.0 specifications to support new connector, expand the list of recent audio specifications and features, improve power management and simplify the discovery and configuration model to make the upcoming headsets as easy to use as today's headsets.
"Usage of digital audio means that headsets should gain their own amplifiers, DACs and various other logic, which is currently located inside smartphones. Intel proposes to install special multi-function processing units (MPUs), which will perform beam forming, noise suppression, acoustic echo suppression (AES), acoustic echo cancellation (AEC), non-linear processing and other operations. The MPUs will also support HDCP technology, hence, it will not be possible to make digital copies of records using USB-C digital headset outputs".
Just as the industry has successfully replaced analog cables with HDMI for video equipment, it is quite possible we may see the retirement of audio jacks in the next few years which may be replaced by USB-C Digital Audio connectors.

From The Advocate: https://www.advocate.com/crime/2018/9/13/florida-sees-fifth-homicide-trans-woman-year
London Moore, 20, was found shot to death Saturday in North Port.
By Trudy Ring
September 13 2018
A transgender woman was shot to death Saturday in North Port, Fla., marking the 20th known homicide of a trans American this year.
London Moore, 20, was found dead in an undeveloped area of the town, according to local media, which initially deadnamed and misgendered her. Her car was found in a different location the next day, reports southwest Florida TV station WINK.
Police called the killing an isolated incident and said they believe the victim knew her attacker, who remains at large. Activists, though, pointed out that Moore's death is part of a cycle of violence against transgender people, especially women of color, and should be investigated as a hate crime.
Hal Trejo of All Rainbow and Alllied Youth Inc. noted that Moore is the fifth trans person murdered in Florida this year. Three were in Jacksonville and one was in Orlando. "So we see it's a huge crisis and needs to be addressed and talked about," Trejo told another area TV station, WBBH.
Police are reserving judgment. "We have no information at this point that it was a hate crime," Joshua Taylor of the North Port Police Department told WBBH. "However, it's on the table; certainly it could come out that way. Part of figuring out why it was done includes talking to who did it. We have to get to that point."

It's time for high-tech, automotive and other manufacturers to get their act together on the issue of conflict minerals coming out of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Later this year, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission will publish final rules on a new law that requires publicly traded companies to disclose whether their products contain certain minerals that were mined in the DRC. And while the law doesn't ban the use of those materials outright, it's going to have a big impact on global supply chains.
The DRC is a major source of several essential minerals or metal ores, including columbite-tantalite (tantalum), wolframite (tungsten), cassiterite (tin) and gold. They are found in everything from cell phones and computers to automotive parts. According to the International Peace Information Service, about half the mines that produce those materials are controlled by armed rebels or rogue soldiers, products of the bloody and seemingly endless civil war in the DRC and neighboring states. They engage in wholesale violence, rape and worker exploitation, including child labor.
Human rights organizations such as The Enough Project have been working for years to raise awareness of the issue. High-tech manufacturers have been slow to respond, arguing that it's difficult if not impossible to trace the origin of every element that goes into a finished product. Now they're about to get a push from the U.S. government. Buried within the massive Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, signed into law by President Obama in July 2010, is the new reporting requirement. Known as the Congo Conflict Minerals Act of 2009, the law requires publicly traded manufacturing companies to report annually to the SEC if they use conflict minerals from the DRC or nine adjoining countries that are "necessary to the functionality or production" of their products, whether they make them directly or employ contract manufacturers. Affected companies that operate mines must also meet strict reporting requirements about worker health and safety practices.
To comply with the law, manufacturers will have to map their supply chains from end to end, and be intimately familiar with the sourcing practices of all suppliers. That's an especially tough requirement to meet, given that high-tech materials are routinely mixed with supplies from all over the world, and pass through multiple steps of processing before being incorporated into finished products. So get ready for a bureaucratic headache.
It's not an impossible task, however. Industry trade groups are already devising programs to help their members comply with the law. The Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition has undertaken a number of initiatives, including a smelter validation program which seeks to identify the origin of materials at this key "choke point" in the chain, in the words of Aaron Hall, policy analyst with The Enough Project. The Automotive Industry Action Group is helping suppliers in that industry to prepare for the new regime.
Some questions remain unanswered. According to Paul Laurenza, partner in the law firm of Dykema Gossett PLLC, the law's language is hazy about what constitutes a material that is "necessary to the functionality" of a product. Does a car radio fall into that category? Defined strictly in terms of transportation, the obvious answer is no, meaning that the manufacturer isn't required to report the presence of conflict minerals in the unit. But if you consider the vehicle's overall economic or marketing value, you come up with a different conclusion.
The term will likely be clarified by SEC when it drafts its final rule, which is due out some time in August. Even then, says Laurenza, "there may still be situations where the rule provides examples of guidance without having specific definitions." For example, there might not be a strict standard for what constitutes a "reasonable" country of origin enquiry. As with so many laws, key provisions of the act will still rely on human judgment.
By restricting itself to publicly traded companies, the law appears to contain at least one giant loophole. What's more, SEC's mandate extends only to reporting; the agency won't have the power to ban the use of conflict minerals in products sold in the U.S.
Don't think, however, means exempted companies can skate on the requirement. Because a typical high-tech or automotive supply chain involves so many partners, even those that aren't regulated by the SEC will have to comply to some degree. The commission has estimated that some 6,000 publicly trade companies will be directly affected, but Laurenza says the "funnel-down" effect will end up involving "thousands of other companies," include those that are privately held or foreign-owned.
The DRC isn't the only place to source those crucial minerals, but it's a major player. Hall quotes estimates that Eastern Congo is responsible for anywhere from 30 to 60 percent of the world's supply of tantalum, 8 to 10 percent of cassiterite and 5 to 7 percent of tungsten. (The amount of gold is harder to quantify, although it probably doesn't approach the numbers for the other three.)
So the amounts are small enough to make feasible a total boycott of materials from the region, if that's the way image-conscious businesses want to go. Surprisingly, notes Hall, The Enough Project isn't advocating that extreme a measure. There are also legitimate mines within the DRC, which relies on the trade to prop up its shaky economy. (Even if the lion's share of that business is smuggled out of the country and doesn't contribute a dime to tax revenues.) The group is simply asking companies to be fully aware of every link in their supply chains, with an eye toward devising a system of certification that could eventually cut off the funds that are flowing to the rebels and soldiers.
Now would be an excellent time to get started. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development recently hosted a conference in Paris with governments, private companies and non-governmental organizations to hash out new guidelines for eliminating conflict minerals from consumer products. Hall says OECD has already passed diligence standards that have been endorsed by the United Nations Security Council, which has the power to sanction companies that are buying from rebel groups. A new bill introduced in the California legislature would stop the state government from doing business with companies that don't adhere to the U.S. federal reporting rule. So measures aimed at stopping the trade might soon get some teeth.
"It takes time to understand what your process is going to be, and to put that in place," says Sheryl Toby, another Dykema Gossett partner in the firm's automotive practice. "The thought process really has to start now."

BRUNSWICK — The biggest question running rampant throughout the Brunswick High School gymnasium prior to Friday night's much-anticipated showdown was how good are the defending Class A champion and preseason Eastern A top dog Hampden Academy Broncos?
For Coach Todd Hanson's Dragons, this was a benchmark game, a look into figuring out if Brunswick's 2-0 start was for real or was going to turn out to be just another victim for the high-powered Broncos, who came in averaging 85 points in their first two contests, both easy wins over northern neighbors Brewer and Bangor.
A double-overtime Hampden win showed the packed gym representing both teams that the Dragons and Broncos are a good matchup.
The Broncos (3-0) left Brunswick with a 65-54 victory, getting 20 points and 14 rebounds from Zach Gilpin and making nine of 10 free throws in the second four-minute extra period after Hampden struggled to a five-for-12 showing at the charity stripe in regulation. And, Hampden, much to coach Russ Bartlett's dismay, turned the ball over an uncharacteristic 20 times.
"They turned us over. Last game against Bangor we had seven turnovers, where today we had 12 turnovers at halftime, and our ball security was really poor," said Bartlett, whose squad visits Messalonskee on Tuesday to complete a season-opening four-game road swing. "We got a little bit of separation in the second overtime and finally made our foul shots."
"Hampden's reputation speaks for itself, and they're a hard enough team to beat over 32 minutes let alone over 40," said Brunswick coach Todd Hanson, whose Dragons are 2-1 and host Lewiston on Monday. "Our guys gave it their all, but just ran out of gas in the overtime. We played seven kids, and they laid it on the line tonight."
In a back-and-forth first quarter, the teams finished deadlocked, 11-11. Gilpin sank a free throw early in the second, but Brunswick responded with a 6-0 run, all from Dragons standout Blake Gordon, who had 10 first-half points.
"Gordon was killing us in the first half," said Bartlett, whose Broncos trailed 27-24 at the half despite 10 points from Gilpin and eight from Isaiah Bess.
Brunswick twice stretched its advantage to five points in the third quarter, but the Dragons went cold as the Broncos warmed up. Bess scored seven points as Hampden claimed a 39-37 advantage heading to the final frame. And, Bess did the job defensively as well, limiting Gordon to just two points in the quarter.
"I thought Isaiah, with his length, did a real nice job on Gordon in the second half, getting him out of his comfort zone," said Bartlett.
Brunswick missed 11 consecutive shots, with Gilpin's putback giving the Broncos a 42-37 lead with 7:10 remaining in regulation.
Hanson called a timeout, and his team returned to floor, intent on turning their fortunes around.
Derek Devereaux drained a pair of quick 3-pointers off an assist each from Gordon and Brady Larson for a 43-42 lead, and Gordon found some room and hit a jumper to complete an 8-0 run over a 45-second span, forcing Bartlett to call a timeout.
"We made shots," said Devereaux.
"We were focused on the defensive end because they have so many weapons, and every timeout we took we talked about helping on Gilpin or Bess," said Hanson.
Devereaux connected again, scoring eight fourth-quarter points as part of 15-point performance.
"We needed to not panic, but we were getting to a point that we needed to make stops and take some quality shots," said Bartlett.
Trailing 47-44 with 1:46 left, Cam Scott scored his first basket and was fouled. He missed the free throw, but his team was down by just one point. On Hampden's next possession, Brunswick's Elliot Boyd (six points, 11 rebounds, two blocked shots) fouled out and Gilpin made one of two at the line to tie the game.
Hampden had a chance to win it in regulation, but Gilpin's shot missed the mark.
"We knew coming in here it was going to be a great game, with Brunswick being a great team," said Gilpin. "Free throws killed us in the preseason, and we missed way too many tonight."
In the first overtime, Larson was left alone and scored on a reverse lay-up for a 49-47 lead. Gilpin made two free throws to tie it, but Ryan Black finished off a Larson pass to restore Brunswick's two-point lead, 51-49.
Hampden refused to fold as Matt Martin scored in the paint. Gilpin had another chance, but on his way to the basket he ran over a Brunswick defender for a foul, giving the Dragons a chance with six seconds left. Gordon had a brief look at the basket, with Bess getting a hand up at the last second to alter Gordon's shot. Alex Bandouveres reached up and tipped the ball toward the rim, but the ball bounced away to force a second overtime.
"I took a bad shot at the end of the first overtime, something that almost came back to bite us," said Gilpin.
The Broncos took control in the second overtime, getting a pair of free throws from Bess to begin a 6-0 run for a 57-51 lead. Gordon drained a 3-pointer with 2:10 left, but Bess answered from long distance to restore the six-point lead, and Scott made five of six at the line to close out the 65-54 Hampden win.
"We're not happy with the loss, but we told our guys that we need to use this as a building block to get better and just keep improving," said Hanson.
"We fought back and played well until the last overtime," added Devereaux.
"It was a great regular-season game. Brunswick played really well, guarded us well and were real physical," said Bartlett.
Hampden was 22 of 60 (36 percent) from the floor and finished 16 of 24 from the free-throw line. The Broncos held a 37-27 rebounding advantage. Bess had 18 points and four steals, Martin eight points and five rebounds, Brendan McIntyre eight points and five boards, and Scott seven points, six rebounds and three assists.
For Brunswick, Gordon had 16 points and four steals, and Black eight points. The Dragons shot 34 percent (23 of 66) and made four of five at the charity stripe.

In everyone's life, a wedding is the most important point that makes a great turning over their life which would the most memorable moments. So those moments must be captured with plenty of colors and enjoyments. For that process wedding, photography is the concern, and primary focus has been considered to be a special thing in photography. Because a wedding is a thing that happens only once in a life that would be a great dream for the people to share happiness. So that happiness and the dreams of the people can be captured for their memories and best moments, traditions and cultures can be arrested within the wedding photography. That wedding photography shares and spreads happiness over every moment that could be happened on a specious day of the wedding. For those wedding photographic sessions, North East Wedding Photographer is the best choice to make the best come out. On the auspicious wedding day, photography is concerned with portrait photography which is held before the official day especially in the engagement sessions which could be focused on the use of the couple's wedding invitations.
The various approaches held in wedding photography:
Two kinds of approaches could be handled in wedding photography those were nothing but the traditional approach and also the photojournalistic approach. By these two of the approaches or descriptions, many of the wedding photographers could get fall in some of the cases in between the represented extremes. More classical posed images were provided on the traditional wedding photography and during the situation of the ceremony, a great deal of the photographer could be controlled. From the editorial reporting style, it is a suggestion took with the style of a photojournalist's wedding photography. And then the style of the photojournalist is mostly focused on the candid images with the interaction of the little photographer. Rather than that of the use of traditional photography the style of a wedding photojournalist has been using with the available light that typically shoots or captures the images quickly or else on the flash of the camera.
Fashion based approach in wedding photography:
In wedding photography, the fashion-based approach is considered to be one of the contemporary styles. In wedding photography, the fashion-based image is nothing but the combination of the candid images with the posed images which are captured on the day of the wedding. Those images have been mentioned as the inspiration of editorial fashions of the photography. During the image processing in the fashion-based approach mostly the style is involved with more innovation and then with the dramatic post.
The fourth style of wedding photography:
In Asian countries, the fourth style of photography is the most popular one, particularly in china there is a wedding studio photography available to capture the photographs. The couple wants to make an appointment for the location shoot or with the indoor shoot with the studio. In addition to the photographer, and then the couples could make with the help of the hairstylist and then the makeup artist during the location shoot over the wedding photography. To the fashion-based approach, the couple can make out with various changes over their clothing and then with the background of the photoshoot in a similar manner.

This Week's Top Tips
The tips come from the forum and are picked each week by yours truly. As always please feel free to add your own advice and comments to the Top Tips threads that interest you.
Top Tip: Why so long to acquire an image from a scanner?
It appears to take 30-ish seconds to scan a higher resolution scan from my slide scanner (Coolscan V) and 2-5 minutes for the "acquiring image" portion? The scan generates a 50MB file over USB 2.0 connection. Is there any way to speed this up?? and is there an explanation why that part takes so long? Thanks ahead on time.
Top Tip: Internet Explorer has been hijacked!
I think Internet Explorer has been hijacked by a virus on my PC. Help! What do I do about it?
Top Tip: Copy config.sys and autoexec.bat?
Can I just copy the Config.sys and Autoexec.bat files from the W98 directory path to the path for W2K? Will that, in w2000, start all the programs that were being started under the old O/S (W98)?
Top Tip: Change password on hosed disk drive?
I have a dual disk drive that I cannot boot from that has Win XPon it. I've tried everything I know of to try and fix the boot sector but it won't work. So I installed another disk drive with Win XP to copy my files from the bad drive to the new drive but it says I can't because of some security BS. So how do I disable the password on the old drive so I can copy my files to the new drive?

A simplest webapp only have a test.jsp below:
this app installed as root context
the test.jsp works fine in firefox
but when using IE8
there is always a different session id where refresh the test page.
BTW: the test.jsp works find in Tomcat 6.x
The difference cookie header of tomcat 6 & 7

Thanks for the report. Fixed in trunk and will be included in 7.0.1 onwards.
Thanks for your reply :)
I am seeing this exact problem on 7.0.6, but only Tomcat on Linux. I have another install of 7.0.6 on Windows and it works fine.
This is the error I see in the logs:
Feb 3, 2011 11:44:15 PM org.apache.tomcat.util.http.Cookies processCookieHeader
INFO: Cookies: Invalid cookie. Value not a token or quoted value
Again, this only happens on IE 8 hitting 7.0.6 on Linux. Unfortunately we have a LOT of IE 8 users. I rolled back to Tomcat 6 and it's working fine again.
Thanks very much!
I've just checked this as Tomcat 7 does return / as the cookie path by default.
From the error message, it looks like your client is sending mal-formed cookies.
The users list is the place to get help with this - you need to provide an example cookie header that is failing.

USA Today columnist Christine Brennan is reporting that Olympic skater Adam Rippon has changed his mind and will not take a job as an on-air correspondent for NBC:
After agreeing to an offer to work for NBC, Adam Rippon @Adaripp decided overnight that he would rather remain as an Olympian, source telling me. Didn't want to
relinquish his official Olympic standing, give up credential, move out of Team USA housing and miss closing ceremony.
— Christine Brennan (@cbrennansports) February 19, 2018
Life comes at you fast. It was just last night that the announcement was made:

So, is this really about the Closing Ceremony and housing or is it about competition for Johnny Weir?
I see people ripping on this but the on air peacock drama queening over wardrobe digs over looks & eye rolls Rippon & Weir throw at each other will be more interesting than anything else figure skating related in the Olympics. https://t.co/0xsEcPQTJ5

It's going to be amazing when Rippon shows up on air with his bronze medal & Weir shows up in bronze body paint to outdo him. Embrace this.

Read a brief summary of this topic
allergy, hypersensitivity reaction by the body to foreign substances (antigens) that in similar amounts and circumstances are harmless within the bodies of other people.
Antigens that provoke an allergic reaction are called allergens. Typical allergens include pollens, drugs, lints, bacteria, foods, and dyes or chemicals. The immune system contains several mechanisms that normally protect the body against antigens. Prominent among these are the lymphocytes, cells that are specialized to react to specific antigens. There are two kinds of lymphocytes—B cells and T cells. B cells produce antibodies, which are proteins that bind to and destroy or neutralize antigens. T cells do not produce antibodies; instead, they bind directly to an antigen and stimulate an attack on it. Allergic reactions can have immediate or delayed effects, depending on whether the antigen triggers a response by B cells or T cells.
Allergic reactions with immediate effects are the result of antibody-antigen responses (i.e., they are the products of B-cell stimulation). These can be divided into three basic types.
Type I reactions, which include hay fever, insect venom allergy, and asthma, involve the class of antibodies known as immunoglobulin E (IgE). IgE molecules are bound to mast cells, which are found in loose connective tissue. When enough antigen has bound with the IgE antibodies, the mast cells release granules of histamine and heparin and produce other agents such as leukotrienes. These potent chemicals dilate blood vessels and constrict bronchial air passages. Histamine is responsible for the visible symptoms of an allergic attack, such as running nose, wheezing, and tissue swelling. A severe, often fatal, type I allergic reaction is known as anaphylaxis. The predisposition of a person to type I allergic reactions is genetically determined. The best protection against such allergies is avoidance of the offending substance. Antihistamine drugs are often used to give temporary relief. Another helpful measure is desensitization, in which increasing amounts of the antigen are injected over a period of time until the sufferer no longer experiences an allergic response.
Type II reactions result when antibodies react with antigens that are found on certain "target" cells. The antigens may be natural components of healthy cells, or they may be extrinsic components induced by drugs or infectious microbes. The resultant antigen-antibody complex activates the complement system, a series of potent enzymes that destroy the target cell.
Type III reactions result when a person who has been strongly sensitized to a particular antigen is subsequently exposed to that antigen. In a type III reaction, the antigen-antibody complex becomes deposited on the walls of the small blood vessels. The complex then triggers the complement system, which produces inflammation and vascular damage. Unlike type I reactions, type II and type III reactions are not dependent on a genetic predisposition. Avoidance of known allergens is the best protection against such reactions.
Delayed, or type IV, allergic reactions are caused by the actions of T cells, which take longer to accumulate at the site where the antigen is present than do B-cell antibodies. The allergic responses appear 12 to 24 hours or more after exposure to an appropriate antigen. A common delayed allergic reaction is contact dermatitis, a skin disorder. The rejection of transplanted organs is also mediated by T cells and thus may be considered a delayed allergic response.

In recent news and rumors, it was stated that chances are very high that Playstation will drop its legendary DualShock controller for the PS4. It is a move that left quite a lot of us in disbelief as the DualShock perhaps had the longest run out of any console controller out there. Why the need to change it? Well, let's start by telling its story and you will quickly understand why it's now leaving.
Do any of you remember the first time the DualShock was introduced? Personally, I remember picking up my first DualShock for my PSX. A few years after the release of the PSX, it was becoming more and more obvious that playing a 3D platform game like Crash Bandicoot required a full 360 joystick experience rather than four simple arrows, and the same could be said about other game types. So, Sony took its original PSX controller and literally "attached" two joysticks at the bottom of the controller. In a way, it really seemed like Sony only glued those joysticks to the original PSX controller to compete with Nintendo. It also looked to me like another Sony trap to make me spend more money – just like the infamous Multitap (a 4-controller adapter), you once again had to buy something to get the same features as the Nintendo 64. So, as you can see, the DualShock wasn't introduced as a controller perfectly designed from the ground-up, nor a product that players were necessarily thrilled to spend money for.
I remember having mixed feelings at first regarding the DualShock joysticks as well. Compared to the N64, these were very slippery. I was quite bugged out anytime I would need to hold the joystick in a direction for a long time (such as in a racing game) and my finger would slip to the edge of the joystick. I would then have to reposition my thumb using my other fingers and make sure I didn't let go of the stick at the same time. This wasn't ideal in any way, but hey, if you're a Sony fanboy, you gotta do what you gotta do. I also recall having a funny thought back then – "What in the world is the purpose of a right joystick?" – but naturally that was before the rise of console shooters like Halo. Back then, games like GoldenEye and TimeSplitters were commonly played with one joystick. So perhaps the DualShock was ahead of its time in a way.
And here we are today... A dozen years later, the DualShock is still Playstation's controller of choice, but it may all come to an end this year. I'm still amazed by the incredible run these slippery joysticks have had, and in my opinion it could be attributed to one thing and one thing only: the DualShock might not be the most comfortable and intuitive controller ever conceived, but the more you use it, the more it fits like a glove. Through hours of use, that slippery feeling is eventually replaced by one of smoothness. You have to put in enough hours of gaming with the Playstation controller to achieve that feeling though. That's why some people claim it to be the best controller ever – once you know how to use it and master its weird joysticks, it becomes pure awesomeness... but it takes time.
On the other hand, newcomers to Playstation from Xbox and PC have a lot of trouble understanding what the buzz is all about with the DualShock. Once you've got used to playing Call of Duty and other shooters on a precise and responsive device like the Xbox 360 controller, it's true that it's hard to get the same results on the Playstation joysticks at first.
Now, no matter your position on the DualShock, let's all be positive: Playstation probably put incredible amounts of testing and design this time around, and we're likely to get a PS4 controller that will be nothing short of amazing.
What to expect from the PS4 controller? Well, expect a design that will be more unanimous and please everybody. I don't think we will witness something as edgy or daring as the original Xbox controller for example. The Wii Pro Controller is a good example of a compromise to fit most gamers, although Sony will make an effort to add a touch of its own. Some might say the Wii Pro looks a lot like the Xbox S controller, but Microsoft is just about the only company that really gave a second design to its controller model, so it's probably the most tried and tested model that we have out there in the console world. I would by no means be mad at Sony if they took some inspiration from Microsoft. Let's hope Sony will get their controller right on its first attempt though!
Update – Spring 2013 – Official reveal of the Playstation 4 controller
The official Playstation 4 controller has been revealed at the Sony conference and referring to the issues outlined in this article, the result is quite satisfying. In the end, Sony didn't completely throw away the usual DualShock as was widely expected. A touchpad was simply added in the middle and the general layout of the controller was adjusted for better comfort for players with bigger hands and actually all players should benefit from that. An improved wireless capability and a new share button have also been mentioned by the speaker. But the best news came in the form of the fixing of the slippery joysticks we previously talked about. Of course, we haven't been able to actually put our hands on those sticks to see if they indeed have good grip, but we can only expect the best with this change. The left and right joysticks are now inclined towards the inside which should now provide much more stability for our thumbs, which was the DualShock's main weakness. There are apparently more features to be still revealed and fully explained about the PS4 controller such as the ability of the controller to track the players' position in a room using the light on the front. We're awaiting more details on that, but so far the new design looks very promising.

RECIPE - Cold brew coffee with vegan sweetened condensed milk
Posted on
We made vegan sweetened condensed milk for our cold brew and it was too good to keep to ourselves! Just look at this...
Cold Brew Concentrate
Our cold brew recipe produces a double strength concentrate that dilutes over ice to drinking strength.
You'll need:
- Cold Brew Blend (our obsessively perfected blend of earthy Sumatran and fruity Ethiopian coffees)
- Water
- A brewing container (french press, large jar, or pitcher)
- A storage container (if making extra servings)
NOTE: Use the same amount of water you'd use for a regular pot of coffee, but double your amount of coffee
- Coarse grind your coffee, like you would for a French press.
- Pour the grounds into your brewing container.
- Pour the water onto the grounds and stir to fully immerse.
- Cover with a lid (do not compress the filter if using a French press).
- Leave in your refrigerator or a cool place on your counter top and let sit 12-18 hours (overnight works great).
- Filter your cold brew (plunge your French press filter or, if using a jar or pitcher, pour through a wire kitchen sieve with a piece of cheesecloth or let drip through a paper filter and basket.
- Pour over ice and enjoy!
- Store any extra up to 2 weeks in your refrigerator.
Vegan Sweetened Condensed Milk
The rich earthy sweetness of Bee Free Honee is perfect for a homemade vegan SCM.
You'll need:
- 2-3 cups of your favorite plant-based milk (We like nutpods, a coconut/almond blend with no added sugar, and Ripple Half & Half Original.)
- 3 tbsp Bee Free Honee
- Saucepan
- Slowly heat the milk/creamer on medium-low in saucepan until warm
- Add Bee Free Honee and stir to dissolve
- Heat almost to boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer and let steam for 1-2 hours or until reduced by 50-60%*
- Pour into your icy cold brew and enjoy!
- Transfer any leftover SCM into an airtight container and store in your refrigerator
(*Alternatively, you can premix your milk and sweetener in a small-medium crock pot and simmer on low, checking periodically.)

He who trusts in the LORD will be exalted. Proverbs 29:25
In September 1939, Great Britain allied with France and several other alarmed countries in declaring war on Hitler's Germany, which had invaded Poland in its intended march toward global domination. By the end of the year, anxieties throughout England remained on high alert; everyone was fearful of bombing and invasion.
When King George VI sat down before two large microphones to make his Christmas Day speech to the nation, he was dressed in his official uniform as Admiral of the Fleet. With so many parts of the world facing an uncertain future, his goal was to reassure the people that their nation was prepared and able and their cause right and just.
"A new year is at hand," the king said. "We cannot tell what it will bring. If it brings peace, how thankful we shall all be. If it brings us continued struggle, we shall remain undaunted."
Then, turning to some lines of poetry his wife had recently shared with him, he concluded his speech with these words, which are a fitting close to our year together. They offer a word of encouragement that–we hope–will settle your hearts amid the troubles of our own era in history. These lines are from "The Gate of the Year," a poem written in 1908 by Minnie Louise Haskins:
I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year
"Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown."
And he replied, "Go into the darkness and put your hand into the hand of God
That shall be to you better than light and safer than a known way!"
Live It
As you make the turn to a new year, what are you facing that needs you to sink your hand more deeply into God's hand?
Pray for one another that as you embark upon a new year, God will grant you and your family His favor.
Meeting @ 10:00 at River Heights Intermediate School 7227 Scholar Way, Eastvale CA.
Trusting and believing with you.

One of the best investments I made this season, this 2-piece by Filippa K. From the moment I first spotted it on a store mannequin to the day I purchased it at the Filippa K store in Antwerp, it was on my mind. And from the day I bought it until this very day it has proven to be the great buy that I tough it would be. Worn together it makes the perfect winter dress, worn with heels for a night out or with boots to the office. And separately the sweater works great with jeans or any other trouser or skirt (as seen here). And the skirt works great with a leather jacket and sneakers for a more comfortable day-time look. All together it's the most versatile set of clothing I ever had. I just found out it comes in 2 colors, so maybe………………….

The Chest (gasum)
The chest is composed of the chest wall, lungs, heart, aorta and vena cava (the big vessels which take blood to and from the heart). These give excellent protection to the internal organs they surround. Consequently, the lungs, the heart or the blood vessels are only rarely injured in taekwondo.
It should be noted that the thoracic spine running through the middle of the back of the chest is very vulnerable to direct blows. A blow to the breast of a woman will cause excruciating pain but serious damage is most unusual.

Ghanaian Man Shoots Himself to Death While Testing Fortification Against Bullet
A man, believed to be in his late 30s, has reportedly shot himself to death at Agona Port near Diaso in the Upper Denkyira West District in the Central Region.
According to reports, the deceased, whose name was only given as Divine, passed on on Saturday.
The deceased is said to have first shot his ankle before shooting his ribs but the bullet failed to penetrate in both attempts.
This is because he is believed to have been spiritually fortified against gunshots.
However, luck eluded him during his third attempt after he shot his head through the brain at close range, causing the bullet to penetrate through to the other side of his head.
His body has since been deposited at the morgue for preservation.

SPOTTED: Tinubu Reading 8-Month-Old Newspaper In New Photo Showing He's Well
A picture of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, Presidential Candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has sparked fresh controversy.
There have been different rumours about the health of Tinubu, who has been away from the country before the kick off of the campaign for the 2023 elections.
On Sunday, the ruling party's presidential candidate released a proof of life video, where he was seen on a thread mill.
Despite the footage, critics of the APC insinuated that some things were hidden about the health condition of Tinubu.
However, in an apparent manner to clear doubt on his health condition, Tinubu released some pictures on Thursday morning.
In one of the pictures, he was seen reading an old copy of The Nation Newspaper, which he has the largest share in.
It is unclear whether the picture was taken in January when the paper was published or in October when the Presidential Candidate has been convincing people about his health condition.
Below are the front cover of the Paper and the picture that Tinubu put up on social media today:
Reactions as new photos of Tinubu with grandchildren resurface on social media
By Francesca Iwambe
Reactions have continued to trickle from Nigerians on social media over photos of presidential candidate of the All Progressive Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu with his grandchildren, which surfaced on Twitter and Instagram on Thursday.
Tinubu's son shared photos of the APC flag bearer on his verified Instagram handle with the caption and hashtags, " Hi Grandpa #FamilyFirst#TinubuFamily #FamilyMan #Grandpa #TakenOnSunday #Noella #BATSenior #BATJunior #Leader."
Special assistant on digital communications to President Muhammad Buhari, Bashir Ahmad, also shared Tinubu's photos on Twitter on Thursday.
Ahmad tweeted, "Good morning from our presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmad Tinubu, and his grandchildren. A wonderful family person."
Recall that Tinubu shared a video of himself cycling on a fitness bike on Sunday.
The video, which went viral, had since elicited questions about his whereabouts.
But, the spokesperson of the APC presidential campaign council, Festus Keyamo has said cycling is a regular routine for Tinubu, adding that the former Lagos state governor was not trying to prove any point.
Keyamo, while speaking in an interview with Channels Television's Politics Today on Wednesday, described Tinubu as an "avid cyclist."
His words, "People who are close to him know that he is an avid cyclist. He does that all the time. It is his regular routine. So, we are not trying to prove anything to anybody."
Meanwhile, Tinubu also posted picture of himself in an office on Instagram on Thursday with a caption that simply reads, "Stay Focused."
NCC To Deploy Technology For Verification Of Annual Operating Levies, Tax, Among Others
By Gloria Ikibah
The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has said that it is going to deploy technology to verify the annual operating levies (AOL), tax and other payments by network service providers to the Federal Government.
Executive Vice Chairman of NCC, Prof. Umar Danbata, disclosed this on Wednesday when he appeared before the House of Representatives Ad-hoc Committee to Investigate the Duplication of Functions of Agencies of the Federal Government.
He said, "We are currently going to deploy a technology solution. We call it Revenue Assurance Solution. We have finished signing the MOU with the consultant that is going to do this deployment, so that we can be independently verify that the amount of annual operating levy (AOL) they are paying and other taxes are indeed what they are supposed to pay and therefore not shortchange the NCC or government when it comes to payment of taxes".
He also revealed that the Commission recently did a successful fifth generation spectrum auction where more than half billion dollars was generated for the Federal Government.
He said, "We, through what we call annual operating levy, run our operations, pay our staff salaries and allowances and even provide resources for intervention in the diverse areas of information and communication technology in the various parts of the country.
"These interventions are verifiable. There is no state of the federation that we don't provide interventions in the diverse areas of ICT. We also provide training. We would like to ensure our citizens are ICT savvy by embracing this important technology because that is what the whole is doing. That is what we can do in order to ensure our citizens are socially and economically transformed to change the way they are doing things, the way they collaborate and innovate.
"We have records available to show that we have been contributing a lot to the coffers of the government and a very good example is when we did that successful 5G auction. The proceeds from the auction goes to the coffers of the government. We don't normally take anything. It is gazetted that whatever we sell spectrum, we do not keep the money, we normally transfer this money to the consolidated revenue fund of the government," he said.
Earlier, the Chairman of the Ad hoc Committee, Rep Victor Danzaria, said research, revenue generation and service delivery are critical conditions in the consideration process for merging or crapping agencies of government.
According to him the committee had a mandate to investigate duplication of functions and counter productivity of agencies for possible merger.
Some of the agencies under consideration were Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), Nigerian Broadcasting Commission (NBS) and the Nigerian Communication Satelite.
Others are, the National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA) Galaxy Backbone, National Boundary Commission and Border Communities Development Agency among others.
Danzaria said that it is not about having many agencies with so many Director-Generals that does not deliver the required services to Nigerians but about productivity.
"The ad hoc Committee is critically looking at these agencies, their existence and looking at possible synergies and mergers of these agencies to give effective service to Nigerians.
"One area is research, second is revenue generation and thirdly is regulatory functions and service delivery and at the end of the day, this is what Nigerians want.
"It is not about when you go to any agency, you see this man seated there on a table and services are not being offered there," he said.

Going Green in the Bathroom
This natural disinfectant helps keep the bathroom clean and germ-free. It also gives off a fresh scent. Mix one part thyme oil to 8 parts water in a spray bottle. Simply spray down the surface and wipe clean with a cloth. When cleaning with thyme oil, be sure you are in a well-ventilated area. Open bathroom windows or turn on an exhaust fan. Also allow the surface to dry thoroughly. Thyme is a very powerful disinfectant.
Tea Tree Oil
Some people think of chemical disinfectants as more effective in the bathroom than natural ones. However, tea tree oil can be much stronger than chemical solutions when it comes to killing bacteria. It has even shown effective in fighting MRSA when used by infected patients. To use tea tree oil in fighting bathroom germs, mix and use it in the same way as the thyme oil solution above.
Lemon Juice
Lemon juice has long been used as a natural disinfectant. In certain situations, it can even be used as a biocide in drinking water. To use lemon juice as a bathroom disinfectant, simply mix 1 part lemon juice concentrate to 4 parts water in a spray bottle. Spray on counters, sinks, toilets, bathtubs, and more for cleaning purposes. Let it sit for 30 minutes. Then, spray again and wipe clean. This helps destroy germs and many types of bacteria.
Vinegar can be used as a natural disinfectant for many situations. It is very effective at cleaning many different types of soil. In one study, when tested along with commercial cleaning products, vinegar was on the list for the most effective at cleaning both bathroom soil and kitchen soil. It is best used at full, undiluted strength - not the strength commonly found in supermarkets. Garden centers and feed suppliers are most likely to sell the full strength vinegar.
Hydrogen Peroxide
Need to whiten and brighten an area of your bathroom? Ditch the bleach and use hydrogen peroxide instead. Mix a half and half solution of water and hydrogen peroxide in a solid colored spray bottle. Spray onto desired areas, let sit for a few minutes, spray again, and wipe clean. This solution may bleach colored surfaces. Test an inconspicuous area before use. This is a greener way to bleach than with chlorine-based products.

NJ jobs: These employers are hiring as state beats US in job growth
New Jersey's economy added 5,100 jobs in March, continuing a winning streak that has seen the Garden State's economy outpace the nation.
The job gains helped the state's unemployment rate remain steady at 4.6 percent and made it more difficult for New Jersey employers to fill openings.
"I've gotten basically zero activity on the marine technician ad," said Don Ditzel, vice president at Comstock Marina in Brick, which is hiring workers to keep up with a strong demand in boating.
The monthly unemployment report is made up of a survey of employers to measure the number of jobs and a survey of households to measure the unemployment rate. It is a preliminary look and is revised both next month and next year.
The initial glimpse at the first quarter of 2018: New Jersey added 33,500 jobs, twice as many as could be expected. It puts the state on pace for more than 130,000 jobs for the year, a colossal amount for a state that has spent nearly two decades in a slump.
"It almost looks too good to be true," Rutgers University economist James W. Hughes said.

More:NJ jobs: Fast-growing Aldi to hire for Shore stores
More:Which NJ state employees make more than Gov. Phil Murphy? DataUniverse
Check out a video at the top of this story for the fast-growing job fields in New Jersey.
Workers' best chances to find work in March? Leisure and hospitality added 3,800 jobs; professional and business services, like lawyers and accountants, added 2,100 jobs; and manufacturing added 1,200 jobs.
Less lucky? Construction lost 1,400 jobs; other services, which include repair and maintenance, lost 1,200 jobs; and education and health services lost 1,000 jobs.
Employers should be reaping the rewards of what amounts to a huge fiscal stimulus: President Donald Trump and Congress signed off on a $1.5 trillion tax cut that put more money in the pockets of both businesses and consumers starting this year.
A flurry of economic reports on Thursday seemed to show employers are in good spirits. The Conference Board's Index of Leading Indicators, a mix of 10 economic reports, rose moderately in March after posting robust gains in January and February, economist Joel Naroff said.
It points to strong growth for at least the next six months.
"There really looks like there are no major impediments to growth," Naroff said.
Not that there aren't fears. The Trump administration has imposed steel and aluminum tariffs on China and threatened the country with many more. Economists say that could start a trade war that could spread throughout the economy.

Previous:NJ jobs: More than 31,000 new jobs in 2018, and here is who's hiring
But for now, employers' biggest concern appears to be where to find workers to keep up with demand. At Comstock, Ditzel said boat sales increased 20 percent last year and have kept pace this year, prompting him to search both for detailers and mechanics.
He's had a dozen or so applicants for detailers. But mechanics are tougher to find, he said.
"The problem I see, which is always the problem for us in this industry, is to find qualified technicians," he said. "The last time (we hired one), four years ago, it took us probably close to 10 to 12 months to find someone who was qualified. They're not pumping out technicians like they used to."
Who's hiring?
1. Comstock Marina, Brick
What the company does: Yacht sales and service.
Position: Certified marine technician.
Pay range: $18 an hour to $35 an hour, depending on experience.

BLM Seeks Volunteers For Midwinter Bald Eagle Survey
As part of a national survey effort, the Bureau of Land Management is seeking volunteers to assist with the Midwinter Bald Eagle Survey on Saturday, Jan. 9, 2016.
Participants are asked to count eagles along standard routes in order to identify population trends. The standard routes are distributed across Campbell, Johnson, and Sheridan counties as well as Natrona and Converse counties. These routes will follow public roads.
Last year's survey results for Campbell, Johnson and Sheridan counties are as follows: 90 volunteers counted 407 eagles, including 288 bald eagles. A total of 2803 eagles have been counted since surveys of the Basin began in 2006. In Natrona and Converse counties, seven volunteers counted 24 eagles across designated routes in Natrona and Converse counties, including nine bald eagles. A total of 36 eagles have been counted since surveys of Natrona and Converse counties began in 2014.
In a change from past years, volunteers will be required to register for survey routes. To register for the survey in Campbell, Johnson and Sheridan counties, contact Charlotte Darling at (307) 684-1045 by Friday, Jan. 1. In order to register for the survey in Natrona and Converse Counties, contact George Soehn at (307) 261-7531 by Friday, Jan. 1. Public training meetings will be held during the week before the survey to discuss survey methodology, eagle identification and to distribute survey materials.
The national survey was established in 1979 by the National Wildlife Federation to develop a winter population index of bald eagles in the lower 48 states and to identify previously unrecognized winter habitats. Over the years the national survey has been coordinated by BLM, U.S. Geological Survey, and is currently coordinated by U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Wildlife professionals from the BLM, U.S. Forest Service and National Park Service coordinate local efforts across Wyoming. A trend analysis paper using survey results from 1986-2010 was published in the September 2015 issue of The Journal of Raptor Research.
For additional information, contact Charlotte Darling at (307) 684-1045 for the Campbell, Johnson and Sheridan counties survey or George Soehn at (307) 261-7531 for the Natrona and Converse Counties survey. For more information on the national program visit the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Bird Initiative web site at http://corpslakes.usace.army.mil/employees/bird/midwinter.cfm.

I've been looking for something for a long time, something dark and dangerous. After ten years, I finally found it. Actually my mom found it [insert panic attack]. It's my box of journals and other writings. She claims she didn't look at it too much, which must be true since she doesn't hate me.
I finally got a chance to read some entries tonight and it reminded me of how dark my heart is and how much God has changed me. I was so self-absorbed, ungrateful, and at times contemptuous. I also so clearly took my identity from my performance–whether in school, gymnastics, or music–and also what people thought of me, even though I pretended not to care. I had about two months worth of entries agonizing about whether I would make I the gifted program in fifth grade.
I knew reading old diaries would be painful because it's embarrassing to realize how selfish and immature I was. It's also humbling to know I still struggle with some of the same core issues, like judging others and feeling like my worth comes from what I do. Looking back, it's easy to see that I felt depressed so often because I was so ungrateful.
It's also interesting to see some of the "deep" questions I wrestled with. Actually some of them are significant issues of identity and purpose, and I drew both insightful and wrong conclusions, often in one entry. I never seemed to reconcile God's love and my own crappy attitude.
Though I want to shred some of the pages, it's good to keep hard evidence about how evil I really am–the evil that God saved me from. To most people, and often in my own estimation, I seemed like a good kid. As I came across a "Citizen of the Year" award I recalled how much better than everyone I thought I was. How's that for citizenship? Now that I'm raising a child, I want to remember that it's not the external show that matters–it's what's going on inside. That's why 1 Sam. 16:7 says that "people look at outward appearance but God looks at the heart."
And that's why I'm able to walk away from that box of depravity with hope–because God sees me for exactly who I am, and He decided to sacrifice His Son for me anyway, and forgive all that evil. And even though I'm still so selfish, I've changed a lot. The journal entries stop right before I started college, right before I decided to trust God to learn how to make friends and see what plans He had for me. I wrote an entry early in high school, wondering what my life would end up like. What career would I have, would I get married, have kids, be happy or not? And now I just can't believe the life God's given me: a great husband; a beautiful healthy son; friends, family, and fellowship far better than I deserve; the opportunity to be a stay-at-home mom; a nice home, and so much more.
What are you thankful for?

I fell in love with exercise when I was in High School. I became a trainer when I was pregnant with my first son. I realized my "true calling" as a "Mom Trainer" (pre/postnatal) after suffering injuries from labor with my first son and spending over a year in rehab.
During this unique stage in my life I learned the tools and exercises that helped me become the healthiest and fittest I had ever been. I continued to get healthier and fitter after my second son and realized that sharing this knowledge and training was benefiting my "mom clients". My joy is having a fit/capable body, my PURPOSE is helping you have that too!
A new baby means a new body for Mom. Celebrate the new you that is created when your new little one came into the world!
The body goes through unique changes during pregnancy and after. This season deserves SPECIFIC and INTENTIONAL exercises NOT just modifications to a standard exercise program. I have studied and collaborated with some health/fitness professionals for moms to create my programs that are made for this purpose:
I don't believe in getting your "body back" after having a baby. I believe that it better serves each mom to realize their body is different after each baby in many ways. Acknowledging where the body is at with respect and helping it get better/stronger from that place is the best way to get into shape after kids!
Through ACE I completed education credit in Prenatal Fitness Training. I learned more specifically the physical and physiological changes that happen to a woman's body during this unique life stage. I was taught how to train expecting clients in a safe way (minimizing risk of injury) and effectively prepping their bodies for the physical task of carrying and delivering a baby.
I also learned how to train clients in the postpartum period using specific exercises to help their bodies heal and strengthen after pregnancy.
Other CEUs in General Nutrition, Training Women at Every Stage, Training the Pelvic Floor within the Kinetic Chain, Strength Training for Adults over 50.
I graduated with my Bachelor's in Wildlife Biology at CSU, Fort Collins, CO.
Raintree Athletic Club is located in Fort Collins, CO. I was hired and worked specifically as THE "Mom Trainer" there for the members
