I recently (well 6 months ago) set up a multi-media computer on the cheap and it's working great. It allows me to do the following:
- Watch EWTN for Free, with near crystal clear, smooth video in 4:3 format (this particularly impresses me since EWTN use to stream very poorly, but the Real video stream is apparently upgraded which now allows good quality full screen video)
- Watch any other internet streamed video for free usually in full screen 4:3 or 16:9 format, including Heroes, Lost, Cspan, Youtube, etc. any other video available on the net, video quality varies depending on service, but major tv network streams are excellent
Using VLC/Videolan, stream video from my computer to any networked computer in the house, including recorded tv, and archived video (hint, instead of using the web interface as suggested in the engadget article, on the remote computer on which I want to watch the video, I login to the HDTV computer using RealVNC, and click on a shortcut that starts up VLC in streaming mode. I have 2 shortcuts, one which plays the video both on the HDTV PC and on the remote computer I'm watching the video on, and one that plays only on the remote (this also allows streaming of TS_Video (DVD) directories on the HDTV's PC's hard drive, whereas the VLC gui doesn't allow this):
For no local playback, playback only on the remote computer having the ip address of 192.168.0.2 set up a shortcut with the following command line:
"C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" –sout=#duplicate{dst=std
{access=udp,mux=ts,dst=192.168.0.2:1234}} –file-caching=4000
For local playback and simultaneous playback on the remote computer so you can watch the video in 2 different rooms simultaneously, playback only on the remote computer having the ip address of 192.168.0.2 set up a shortcut with the following command line:
"C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" –sout=#duplicate{dst=display,dst=std
dst=192.168.0.2:1234}} –file-caching=4000
- Record High Definition 720p/1080i broadcast TV using DVR software BeyondTV
- Store my home videos and photos for browsing and display
- Archive DVD's to hard drive (using dvd shrink (easy) or dvd decryptor (more involved but more reliable), of DVDS I own, allowing better organization and faster access [and yes I respect copyright, archiving only DVDS i have rights to]) Check out DVDPlay which I use to make this a little prettier.
- Video conference using a cheap video cam and skype. This is useful not only to call people outside of your home, but also to communicate within the home. For instance, I can set my multimedia computer to automatically answer skype calls, and if somebody is watching a video on the computer, I can call them from my computer in the other room, and announce over the TV "Ok, Time to turn the TV OFF!!". I can also use it for intra-room video conferencing and video monitoring. Very cool.
- Remotely control the computer from another room using Windows Remote Desktop, or simpler, in my opinion the free Real VNC. This is great fun, since you can turn on/off movies, turn down/up videos, etc. all from another room.
- Listen to music with visualizations (viewed in Windows' Media Player this is pretty awesome on a 37″ LCD), mp3's, audio podcasts, etc.
- And of course, browse the internet, send email, compose documents, etc. in 37″ wide screen glory from my easy chair using a wireless keyboard and mouse
- File and Print Server for other computers in the house (simply by sharing out the printer and driver using windows sharing – I used to use a separate linux based computer to serve as a file server using samba which I far preferred, but when that computer burned out after many years of service, I decided to combine the file server with my multimedia pc. The file server is MUCH slower given the other loads on the computer and given it's not linux, but it's been bearable.
- Personal wordpress blog, which I use as personal knowledgebase, logging technical tips and notes, usually from another computer using the firefox add-in Deepest Sender.
- Cygwin server (although a poor replacement for a full blown linux server that was Edison I, an okay linux solution that operates in a windows environment, giving me access to such very useful things as cron and linux scripts). I primarily use this to record AM talk radio programs that stream audio to MP3 on a daily basis – a somewhat obscure and somewhat awkward (but worth the effort) process which I for now will leave undocumented, but suffice it to say that at the end of each day I have a nice collection of MP3's of Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Prairie Home Companion, Dave Ramsey, Matt Drudge, or almost any other popular radio show out there that I wish to record)
- 37″ Olevia Flat Panel TV similar to this one. Snagged it at Target for $545 on black friday special (involved waiting about 2 hours before opening, yes, i'm crazy). I've been impressed with its features and video quality given the price.
- old computer (consisting of parts left over after building a new one) consisting of:
- A7N8X-E Motherboard
- 300 gb drive (new), stores all video
- 160 gb drive (old, from old linux server, stores all non-video data files, file server drive, since this was partitioned using extf3 linux format, I use a utility that allows windows to read the format which so far work well).
- 80 gb drive used for Vista system drive
- Logitech S510 wireless keyboard (fairly good range, fairly inexpensive if you look on sale, and batteries last a long time, definately need wireless keyboard/mouse one for a multimedia pc)
- EDIMAX EW-7128G IEEE 802.11b/g PCI Wireless Card – This has been extremely reliable and beats the heck out of the usb wifi adapters I've used in the past. This one comes with an external antenna that is very helpful in getting a better signal.
- Kworld ATSC 310 HDTV USB Recorder Box Not sure if they are making these anymore, but I highly recommend them if you are okay with ditching the software and going for BeyondTV.
- WIndows Ultimate – Although I have Windows Vista Ultimate running, I'm really not using any of the Windows Media pc features (which comes with ultimate) because I prefer BeyondTV. In fact, XP would probably run a lot faster and with lower overhead and would probably be a better choice for a computer with these specs.
- BeyondTV – as mentioned above, a very good DVR program that works with tuner box and which I got for free after rebate from Frys a year or two ago
- Add Dedicated video card – Right now I'm just using the integrated video in the mother board – thing are working okay, but the video stutters sometimes because of the reliance on the integrated video – BeyondTV worked great on my 17″ monitor, but it seems that the 37″ LCD is likely pushing the video to its limit. The one game I tried to install wouldn't run properly.
- Add more RAM (at least 2 gigs) but then I would have to update the motherboard
- Get a Better CPU – at least dual core. This is particularly useful in compressing video from high definition to DIVX which BeyondTV can do but is hard pressed to do it on the system I'm using.
- Add More Hard drive space!!! You can never get enough with recorded video. Each hour of high definition records to 8 GB of space using TP format in BeyondTV. Preferably I would like 1 TB, and really I would like 2!!
- Replace wifi adapter with Powerline adapter (like this panasonic set which has great reviews on amazon) for better internet access. While my wireless adapter has worked surprising well for what I'm doing (I'm absolutely shocked how well given the problems I've had with WIFI in the past and that my router is about 50 feet away through several walls), it does slow down once in a while and the video streaming stutters at times. The powerline adapters have come down hugely in price, have great reviews, and seems would solve all the problems I've had with WIFI in the past.
In addition, the computer, which I call "Edison" (it's really Edison II since Edison I was my linux server which died but had served as my primary smba file server and linux development server) also doubles as:
Edison consists of the following:
What I would do to improve it:
In short, I would ideally like a computer more like my new one, together with better internet access, to power Edison, but in the meantime I am fairly satisfied.
In my opinion, hooking up an internet connected computer to your tv beats the heck out of a dedicated solution such as Mac TV, TIVO, etc. It just gives you so many options not otherwise available. Also, as an aside, I briefly contemplated doing a linux solution such as MythTV, but I'm glad I didn't. You just can't beat the user friendliness and flexibility of being in a windows environment. I love linux for servers, but I shudder to think what I would have had to go through in order to get this functionality and compatability with video cards, etc. using linux.

OH, MAN they do a memorable pillowy and warm focaccia at Gloriosa, crusted with salt, sprinkled with rosemary. It's flippy, floppy, unctuously evoo-ey and pretty lush eating. We polish off hunks off it while greatly enjoying mansplaining to each other about the total Wild West that is buying commercial websites, the movies (Sean working on them) and, of course, motorcycles.
I'll mainly remember this focaccia though because I impulse order it only after we have eaten our way through a great many dishes and only when we realise nothing else savoury is coming and largely and, rather awkwardly, because we're still pretty hungry.
Hmmm, it slots in then like a culinary Elastoplast somewhere between the lamb and zhoug (more on this later) and a super wobbly and quietly creamy panna cotta in a pool of grown-up caramel with a rather hard and perhaps unnecessary biscuit that I'm guessing they made themselves.
Not to say that the flickering candles, wide open spaces and hushed comfort of this newish restaurant at the top of the Finnieston strip don't create a pleasant place to be. On this Wednesday evening it oozes a quiet, calm sophistication with a casual but well-dressed customer base, even if rather bizarrely when I walked in it seemed every table had at least one bloke stroking his bare chin in slightly puzzled contemplation at the food. Trying to figure out presumably, like us, how this is supposed to work.
I mean we eat good things. Parmesan shavings, tarragon, hazelnuts and watercress turn pale, poached Jerusalem artichokes into a rather lovely salad; the obligatory beetroot offering is blisteringly vibrant in its colours, shredded almost, and spiked with mint, smoked almond and doused in a posh vinaigrette. Farinata, or that panfried (Genoa) chickpea tart is a salty, savoury circular, crunchy gooey sandwich filed with Swiss chard that makes us both look up and nod in unison: this is really good.
There's a plate of pale yet pink smoked haddock morsels (we decide smoked inhouse) in a wispy fennelly and attractively oily pool containing quite a lot of lemon.
Then there's a spaghettini heaped with parmesan, more lemon, containing violet artichoke and tasting buttery, a little eggy and served, of course, al dente.
Considering my first ever recollection of the phrase al dente is when aged about eight I carried the spaghetti I'd helped Nonna plate through to the full Italian family waiting at the table and received showers of complimenti amid cries of al dente you'd think I welcome this. But somehow I find it a little bit grittily unnecessary in pasta this fine.
We glide through these textures and tastes anyway almost effortlessly – waiting subconsciously for the oh-mamma moment that's going to indicate we've reached the top of the hill and only have to glide replete through a fragrant dessertland. But it never comes.
There was the lamb, sliced, seared to almost crispness yet very pink and occasionally chewy. This is quite good and served surrounded by fava beans, spiced butter and that zhoug, straight from the Bumper Book of Things That Your Customers May Not Yet Have Spotted on the Supermarket Shelves. All fresh green, cuminy, coriander sensations which along with the beans makes for a super seductive combo that has me wishing there was much more of this.
Oh, and I forgot to mention the gildas (see bumper book above) at £1.50 a pop that we had as appetisers and that literally made us laugh out loud when we saw them. A cocktail stick with an olive, a pickled pepper and and an anchovy: nice but should they even be charging for this? I don't think so.
What do we think of Gloriosa overall? The chef or mastermind or whatever was at Alchemilla across the road, a restaurant that was slightly blighted, for me anyway, by its breathless not entirely warranted delight in itself. Gloriosa doesn't feel smug. A little weirdly unstructured, pricey too, but overall it's still fresh and worth a visit.
1321 Argyle St
0141 334 0594
Menu: A lot of great flavours, not much structure to anything. A grazer's delight with zhougs, light smoked haddocks and artichoke and parmesans a go-go. 4/5
Service: Quiet, calm, unobtrusive and in keeping with the generally upmarket casual vibe. 4/5
Atmosphere: Flickering candles, wide-open spaces, this is in The Old Firebird restaurant but you will struggle to recognise it. 4/5
Price: I spent £70-ish for two with no alcohol and that lamb was £16, the farinata a fiver. Mounts up easily. 4/5
Food: Some light, fresh memorable flavours; that Jerusalem artichoke, the lamb with zhoug. The farinata not so great. But worth a try. 8/10

A New Idea For Venture Capitalists
Obviously, it hurts when a promising business project you backed financially goes down the tube.
But while you point to many possible causes, seldom do you attribute the wreckage to a lack of effective communications that might have modified the behavior of sales prospects in a positive way, thus averting a money-losing shutdown.
Is it not possible, Mr. or Ms. Venture Capitalist, that aggressive publicity and promotion might salvage the occasional, marginal investment?
I believe it could, so here is a suggestion.
Make it standard operating procedure, starting with your next venture, (a minor cost compared to your investment) that any project you back MUST include an adequately funded, top-notch plan to aggressively publicize the venture.
Here's why. In public relations, we know people will act on their perception of the facts before them about your new venture.Further, we know that those perceptions will lead to predictable behaviors, good or bad, about which something can be done.
So when we create, change or reinforce that opinion by reaching, persuading and moving-to-desired-action those folks whose behaviors affect your new venture, your public relations effort is a success.
I know you have startup worries beyond public relations concerns, but consider for a moment some very serious PR exposures faced by that new venture of yours, and especially by the new management you recently installed.
If sales prospects are not made aware of your product or service, you will not get them as customers. And, as customers, if they don't remain convinced of the value of your product or service, you lose them.
If employees believe your new management doesn't care about them, productivity suffers, and if a minority person believes your new venture discriminates when it doesn't, a host of unnecessary problems may ensue.
For that matter, if community residents perceive your new business as a lousy place to work, you have employee hiring and retention problems. And if insurance carriers perceive your new management as a bad risk, they don't provide the needed business coverage.
There's more. If journalists are suspicious of your new management's motives and they are not convinced otherwise, the venture gets "bad press." And if business people believe what some competitors say about the new business, that strategic alliance your managers want so badly may not come about. Plus, as you grow bigger, if government regulators believe the venture's products are not completely safe, sales will almost certainly be negatively affected.
By the way, this article calls addressing these kinds of risks a new idea for venture capitalists because I've yet to see it discussed or even mentioned in the public press.
Fortunately, you can put the kind of PR we're discussing to work immediately on behalf of your newest venture by introducing the new program to its managers with a brief, no-nonsense charter. Possibly along the lines of "yes, yes, I know you're very busy but it's our money on the line here and we're going to do everything possible to make it work!"
From that might flow these "marching orders" to your managers.
You will take the time to meet with members of your most important audiences and evaluate their feelings and beliefs about you and the business.
You commit to take action when you discover troubling perceptions that could lead to negative behaviors.
You accept that what people BELIEVE to be true, versus the truth, defines your public relations problem.
You will raise your profile, and that of the business, by regularly speaking before business and fraternal clubs, by meeting with the media and by promoting your business as appropriate, thusbuilding the kind of good will you will need should things go awry.
You will prepare carefully thought out, persuasive messages that directly address the misconceptions you discover during your periodic fact finding sessions.
You will select effective communications tactics that will carry those messages to your key audiences in a timely manner. And you will choose from a wide array of tactics such as meetings, speeches, luncheons, facility tours, promotional events, emails, media interviews and many more.
And finally, you will track the progress of your public relations effort by speaking regularly with members of those key audiences,and monitoring both the media and the reaction of community residents and other businesses, adjusting your strategy and tactics accordingly.
Yes, Mr. or Ms. Venture Capitalist, it does hurt when a promisingproject you backed goes down the tube.
Of course, you are, and must be concerned with a host of financial, human resource, legal and competitive issues for each new venture.
At the same time, in my view, you must remain vigilant as to how a single issue - potentially dangerous, unattended perceptions among a key audience -- can nudge a fledgling business closer to failure than success.
Fortunately, the "marching orders" outlined above will lead your venture management team to resolve such issues without a major investment in either time or money.

Perception Persuasion Behavior: PR at Work
Managers ? the business, non-profit and association sort ?really need to get this down pat if they are to meet their managerial objectives.
Be Patient? Nah, Lets Kill Something
There's the old joke about the two buzzards sitting in atree overlooking a highway. One responds to the other, "Bepatient? I'm hungry. Let's kill something." Just like thatbuzzard, it is not in the nature of most marketers to bepatient for business to grow. They want to go out and "killsomething," too.
The Ten Ps of PR
Everyone is talking about the Ps of successful marketing, so I thought it was time that PR had it's own Ps - essentials that will help you maximise your PR activities and results.
Starting A Publicity Program
Successful buisnesses know that media attention reaches consumers better than advertising can. A feature story on a start-up's new product or service, for example, can send the business into a new stage of growth. Publicity can help bring your business greater visiblity and success. Publicity lets the public know you exist and creates crediblity and good will. That makes customers and prospects more receptive to your products and services.
Gaining Free Publicity Through Press Releases
One of the greatest ways to promote your product or service is with publicity. Many people have little, if any, understanding of how to go about securing publicity, never mind free publicity. Fact is, people will pay more attention to free publicity than they often do to paid advertising.
Tough Times, Tough Tactics
When times are tough, it's no time to ignore those external audiences whose behaviors matter so much to your organization.
The Only Way to Get Free Advertising?
Receiving free advertising is the dream of most business people. If you've ever found yourself frosting at the mouth over how your competitor got interviewed on the news or how they are always highlighted in the local paper, then read on. Maybe next time you can beat them to the punch and reach thousands at no cost.
Recessions Dont Last Forever!
It could, but what if it doesn't?
Do You See PRs Real Value?
As a business, non-profit or association manager, do you see the value in doing something positive about the behaviors of those important external audiences of yours that most affect your operation?
Public Relations Writing: Write Better Press Release Headlines With More Impact in Less Time
Public relations writing when writing press releases can be a real challenge.
Building Community Support for Project Permitting, Construction, and Marketing
Redevelopment is replacing new construction throughout the Greater Boston area, as construction costs climb and the commercial/retail vacancy rate reaches new (and alarming) levels.
Attention Owners of Food Related Businesses: How to Get Publicity Any Time You Want
Attention: Who Else Wants To Get Publicity Whenever You Want It?
Rise of the Creative Class
The fast changing dynamics of the world economy is forcing organizations to fundamentally rethink the manner in which they have been communicating with their constituent communities and decision-makers. It is constantly being proven that conventional communication approaches that are designed to raise public awareness may often have the opposite effects of those intended. This is because they fail to take into account the public's profound resistance to the traditional communication stimuli.
PR Is Just Smart Business
The name of the game is doing our part to achieve manage- ment's objectives. And public relations best practice ? properly applied ? does just that.
Publicity: Write a Letter to the Editor for Free Publicity
Ever wonder why papers devote a page or more to letters to the editor? Because subscribers love to read them!
35 Quick Tips for Writing A Press Release
Layout1. 1-2 pages in length.2. Double-space.3. 1.5 to 2 inch margins.4. Use company stationary with logo and slogan.5. Avoid bright or dark-colored paper.6. Center "News Release" at top.7. Place a "release date" under "News Release".8. On second page, type "page 2".9. Use company stationary with logo and slogan on page 2.10. Leave out "release after" date on second page, all else should be the same.11. At end of press release, type "-30-" or "# # #".12. Include both black & white, color, and a variety of font sizes (but no more than four).
PR Secrets for Small Business
Most small businesses do little to no public relations (PR) to promote their businesses. The reasons are fairly common. No one within the small business knows the mechanics of writing a press release, and if they did, they don't know what to say. Instead, small business owners wait for a local reporter to stop by or for a trade publication editor to notice them at a trade show. Most small businesses are still waiting, but a select few luck into their moment of fame; and when it comes, Wow! what an impact it can have.
Media Training: How to Avoid Being Misquoted
I often begin my media training sessions by asking members of the audience to raise their hands if they've been interviewed by the media. Almost all of the hands in the room go up. I then ask them to keep their hands up if they've ever been misquoted. Not only do virtually all of the hands remain up, but the usually nod their heads vigorously, followed by laughter.
Media Training 101: When 60 Minutes Knocks On Your Door
You never know when 60 Minutes will knock on your door and if not them, then maybe a local investigative reporter. A little media savvy is a valuable skill for executives and their image-conscious organizations. Unless you've had media training you know most businesspeople would rather face a firing squad than a crew from the 5:00 news. Although most reporters have professional integrity, some can be crafty.
What Does the Public Relations Client REALLY Want, and Why?
It's not unusual for clients of service providers to insist that their budget dollars be quickly applied to a variety of flashy tactics. Yet, when pressed, many acknowledge that what they REALLY want for their money is visible, end-game change.

He had mentioned to me that mine had hit the road, but what I didn't know was the card storm that would hit as a large flat rate box just about knocked over my mail box with its weight.
Inside, well, was magic. I could literally feel the Lucky Charms rainbow pour out of it with gold coming at the end of the rainbow. With so much found in this box so worthy of needing to be posted, this will have to take a long segment to get it all up.
So let's take a look at the gold or some of it. Remember, not all cards will be posted as it would take at least a month.
First up is this unique Calais Campbell card that should be signed but isn't. Odd. Never seen an unsigned card that was supposed to be signed. Would have been cooler if it had been signed since Campbell had such a big season for the Jags last year.
Steve McNair. He was a fun one to watch and here is a 22K parallel rookie card of the man. Collectors Edge put out so many great products and parallels.
Bowman Chrome, how much I miss you NFL style. This card was pulled out to be shown off because it's a parallel.
Kurt Warner. I have always been a fan. Wished I had his autograph, especially if one can be found in a Giants uniform.
This is one really cool looking insert. There were a couple of these in the box, maybe a set chase is needed.
/45 numbered cards may not mean much today, but back in the 90's and even in 2001, they did. Tough pulls.
I was probably one of the very few that enjoyed 1996 Collectors Edge Presidents Reserve. The base were printed on acetate and the inserts were themed presidential. Such as Running mates. Man I miss the 90's.
Star Pics. Interesting photos that I just had to share. They look like a cheesy commercial.
Brett Favre. Legend.
Two of the biggest Cowboys in the 90's, I dreaded when my Giants had to play them. Emmitt always had big games against the Giants especially if the games were in prime time.
Hardy isn't messing around on his Gold Leaf Rookie card.
Another great Collectors Edge photo. This one of the great hands Rice. I don't think many will CATCH up to his records. See what I did there.
Great looking Stadium Club insert. Remember when inserts looked better than the base and not vice versa?
Game Breakers with it's hologram technology. I have a few of these already and now I have more after this box. Hmmm maybe another set chase?
Petty never quite shined in NY unlike Tuck who did. Too bad he wasted his last few years of his career in Oakland. I still like my shiny cards though!
The Bus is running at Warp Speed.
And we finish this part up with an Unsung Hero.
This mail day was like a good radio station that plays songs from the 80's, 90's and today. Much more to come from this big mail day.

Songs for the Sabbath- You're Not Alone
Click here to read the article on LDSLiving.com
I sincerely hope that you hopped over to the LDS Living site to read the rest of Brother McLean's story. There are so many vital lessons that we can learn from his experience. I know that is one of the reasons we are here on this earth together--to learn from one another. We all have trials and hard times and we all have the opportunity to learn things from listening to someone else share life-altering experiences.
"It was like somebody decided to bolt heaven shut," McLean explains. "I started to wonder, What if I've gotten it all wrong? What if I got the church thing wrong? What if I got Heavenly Father wrong? I kept thinking this would end—that there would be some peace that would come or some answers that would start trickling down. But they didn't. I couldn't believe I was saying it out loud, but I was thinking about an exit strategy. It was so painful."
Have you ever been in this position? Have you ever had a question (or multiple questions) and felt like you have prayed and prayed and no answer was received? I've been there myself and I agree with Brother McLean--it's a painful experience.
I also love how Brother McLean shared that he read a book about Mother Teresa which talked about a 49-year faith crisis that she went through. Forty-nine years? Mother Teresa? What is that all about? How could someone as pure and holy as Mother Teresa have a 49-year faith crisis? What this tells me is that none of us are immune from questions, doubt, and loss of faith. It can happen to anyone at any time, no matter how strong your faith is.
"I decided to recommit," he says. "I'd wait on the Lord and look for answers that satisfied both my heart and mind. I'd attend church and not escape to the parking lot when I'd hear things that broke my heart or just made me feel like I was not where I truly belonged. I'd show up and shut up and listen and wait."
Sometimes answers come quickly. Often times they take weeks or months and sometimes they even take years. There is also the very real possibility that the answer you seek may never come in this life. The timing of our answers is not up to us. The timing of our answers is in the very capable hands of our loving Heavenly Father. He knows the timing that is best for each of us and we have to learn how to trust in that timing.
But it was the perspective of John the Baptist that especially impacted McLean. "John the Baptist had a faith crisis that goes beyond anything I've experienced," he says. "While he's locked in prison, about to be executed, he tells some of his disciples to find Jesus and ask Him, 'Are you the one who was to come? Or should we look for another?' He's wondering if, after all he had done, he had gotten it all wrong."
The perfect answer that was designed just for him.
That is how a God who loves His children answers His children--with answers that are perfectly designed for each and every child. I know this to be true.
My friends, I know that we can receive answers to even the most challenging of questions. I also know that if the time is not right for us to receive an answer to a specific question then we can be blessed with peace in knowing that all will be well in the end.

In statements to MENA, the Ministry of Interior's media centre stated that the IED detonated beside the international highway in the city, while an armoured security vehicle was nearby.
The injured were transferred to hospital to receive treatment, the ministry said.
The security forces are currently investigating the incident.
Militants have killed hundreds of police and army personnel in the past three years in North Sinai, while the authorities have announced that hundreds of militants have been killed in military campaigns in the governorate.
The Islamist group Ansar Beit Al-Maqdis, affiliated to the Islamic State group, has claimed responsibility for most attacks against security forces in Sinai.

Bethany is rude when Anna suggests that she and Faye could spend the afternoon together. Tim worries about the cost of the wedding. Kevin calls round and tells him that Redferns, a car showroom in town, is looking for a new window cleaner and he's put in a good word for him. Sally's thrilled and Tim tries to appear enthusiastic. Gail sees Bethany, dressed to the nines, at the bus stop. She claims she's going into town. Alya avoids Gary when he tries talking to her. Tyrone suggests he takes her on a picnic. Kevin pushes Tyrone to work harder. Bethany gets a taxi from Lloyd to the Dog & Gun. Callum isn't pleased to see her arrive. Anna tells Faye she's having Miley for the afternoon and suggests they all spend the time together. Faye makes up an excuse to avoid it. She reluctantly agrees to be Sally's bridesmaid. Callum agrees that Bethany could go with him on another delivery and passes her a packet of drugs. Sally pushes Tim to go to Redferns and irons him a shirt. The Dog & Gun is raided by police with sniffer dogs. A terrified Bethany passes the drugs to Callum and then Gemma who tries to slip into the toilets alone but is stopped. Tyrone gets annoyed with Kevin's temper. Gail tells Sarah she should keep a closer eye on Bethany. Tim sees Anna with Miley and goes off with her rather than go to Redferns. Following a search, Gemma is arrested and taken away. Gary calls in the factory with a picnic hamper, hoping to surprise Alya but she's too busy to take up the invitation. Lloyd tells Sarah he dropped Bethany at the Dog & Gun and she sets off in search of her. Roy plucks up the courage and phones Cathy. When Kevin works out that Tyrone was in the Rovers rather than on an errand, he tears a strip off him. He tells Sally that Redferns rang to say that Tim didn't show up. Bethany comes on to Callum as Sarah's taxi arrives outside the pub.

The difference between a lifetime of playing catch-up and excelling in school and beyond comes down to whether or not a student has an effective, highly qualified teacher. Students with highly qualified and highly effective teachers score higher than their peers time and time again, demonstrating how an educator's level of effectiveness and quality has far-reaching consequences beyond their current grade level.
"While licensure or certification is a significant indicator of teacher quality, these factors alone are insufficient for teacher effectiveness." Pamela D. Tucker and James H. Stronge said in their book, Linking Teacher Evaluation and Student Learning. "Effective teachers are able to envision instructional goals for their students, then draw upon their knowledge and training to help students achieve success. A 'highly qualified' teacher is certainly a good starting point, but most of us would want our child to have a highly effective teacher whose teaching effort yields high rates of student learning."
The impact of a highly effective teacher is immeasurable. It impacts a student's learning at their current grade level and far beyond. It also sets them up with a model for future learning and achievement. As a teacher, you aren't just sharing facts and figures; you are imparting wisdom and demonstrating what it means to be a thoughtful, knowledgeable person. It's not just what you know when you start out as an educator that makes you successful—it's your willingness to learn more.
Continuing education, whether that takes the form of an advanced degree or specialized training, is part of the equation that helps you become a highly effective teacher. Beyond merely adding to your credentials or our commitment to continuing education shows your students that you walk your talk.

AJK can be turned into engine of growth, productivity for region: Masood
The conference was attended by delegates from all over the world including key speakers Patrick Hanks, Professor of Lexicography, UK, Ms Catherine, Enviro- Activist, South Africa, and Paul Hildebrand from Germany. Earlier, Vice Chancellor the University of Kotli Dilnawaz Gardezi welcomed the delegates.
In a message read out at the conference titled "International Conference on Modern Trends in Social and Management Research" organized by University of Kotli here on Sunday, he said that the state government was heavily and rapidly investing in infrastructure development, hydro-power generation, quality education, universal access to health, tourism, industry and agriculture.
He said that it was our ambition to transform Azad Kashmir into an engine of growth and productivity for Pakistan and the entire region.
Sardar Masood Khan said Azad Kashmir is one of the most beautiful places in the world. "It is part of the paradise on earth and Kotli is a nugget of a city nestled in the valleys and mountains," he added.
He said that Azad Kashmir has rich geographical landscapes. Snow capped mountains, glaciers, rivers, natural springs, valleys and forests, flora and fauna and biodiversity – enrich and adorn our land. But, he maintained that the most precious asset we have is our people – strong, sturdy, resolute and talented. They are scaling new educational heights in the five public sector universities, scores of postgraduate colleges and a vast network of primary, secondary and tertiary institutions. We have the highest educational score in the whole of Pakistan, he added.
The AJK president said that he was impressed by the wide range of themes of the conference encompassing the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), sustainable development, e-commerce, marketing, micro-financing, banking, eco-tourism and hospitality in the liberated territory.
Sardar Masood Khan said that the Azad Kashmir universities have also started teaching new technologies such as machine learning, automation, robotics, artificial intelligence, Internet of Things, cloud computing, Big Data and biotechnology. These technologies would help us attain leap-frog development and become part of the regional and international supply chains.
Addressing the students, the AJK president said that they were the architects of the future of Pakistan and the liberated territory. Therefore, they should build on and expand the knowledge they gather from this conference and play their part in making this world peaceful, secure and prosperous.
The conference was attended by delegates from all over the world including key speakers Patrick Hanks, Professor of Lexicography, UK, Ms Catherine, Enviro- Activist, South Africa, and Paul Hildebrand from Germany.

The New Initiative For Credible Leadership (NICreL) on Friday adjudged Gov. Bindow as the most credible option among other candidates contesting for the Adamawa governorship seat in the 2019 general elections. The State Director of NICreL, a Civil Society Organisation (CSO), Rev. Samson Peter Zira, said this in a statement made available to newsmen in Yola.
Zira, who observed that Gov. Bindow had lived up to expectations of Adamawa State since assuming office in 2015, said the group arrived at the conclusion after a critical analysis of other governorship candidates. Gov. Bindow He highlighted some of the achievements of the president to include increase in infrastructure development, completion of abandoned projects as well as improved security architecture of the State.
While also noting that Bindow, who is the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), was also rated ahead of other contenders because of his selflessness, the Adamawa State director said other governorship candidates were only in the race for personal interests. "Having appraised all the candidates and carefully analysed their different abilities vis a vis their various stints at public office, we have reached the conclusion that none of them is a better option than Gov. Bindow, judging by antecedents, performance and character.
"To appreciate this view, it is important that we take a look at where we were as a State in 2015 and where we are now. "The infrastructure deficit was so pronounced that it was basically the major issue in the governorship campaign of that year. Despite the fact that oil was sold at unprecedented high prices, sometimes even as high as $147 per barrel.
"Yet, there were no savings but a depletion of the existing saving by the PDP led State government in Adamawa before the advent of Bindow's tenure. That was the kind of economy and government that was handed over to the Bindow administration," he explained. He said in the past, abandoned projects littered everywhere but with the coming of the current government, abandoned projects were being completed. Zira said while past governments derived pleasure from looting the treasury,
Bindow out of his patriotic zeal introduced measures to block all the loopholes. "This was one of the major actions that got us out of a recession," he said. He, therefore, called on the electorate to vote massively for the Bindow candidacy in 2019.

Horseback Riding in Cabarete
The North Coast of the Dominican Republic has the most diverse landscape, which is perfect for horseback riding enthusiasts. Cabarete is no exception so there are several routes services by local tour operators where visitors can have a eco-friendly experience riding on the beach, forest, mountains and rivers. Although providers do take customers directly, it is much better to use a tour operator as the experience is far more rewarding and well coordinated.
Rancho El Contento
For as long as we have known Ute, she`s involved with horses. Rancho El Contento (Happy Horse Ranch) is a small ranch located in Veragua, 15 minutes from Cabarete and prime land for horseback riding. The tour rides through the mountain landscape, rivers, farms, small Dominican villages and pristine land where only birds can be heard.
El Contento prides itself to have rescued many horses and keeps them very healthy, so they ask riders to be gentle to these fantastic animals. They are ready to take beginners as well as advanced riders, also children. This tour takes you away from the busy Cabarete and into a more quiet, eco friendly tour with scenic vistas and the fresh air of the outback.

Rancho Luisa & Tommy
Located also in Veragua, about a 15 minute drive from Cabarete, Rancho Luisa & Tommy provide a truly relaxing experience riding through the rural hillside farmland where traditional campo feeling is present in its rivers, mountains and nice DR people. The route also includes the beach, and the tour guide will keep a good pace with the visitors; visitors will get wet so bring sturdy shoes and clothing that can take all the action.

Sea Horse Ranch
The Equestrian Center at Sea Horse Ranch organizes tours along the beach, and is a higher end training center with specialists in riding, dressage and jumping for all levels of riders. They have a stable with Paso Finos, Tennessee Walkers, Quarter horses and thoroughbreds; also ponies for kids. It is the most advanced equestrian center in the North Coast. The tour rides take in the local woods, bridle paths and beaches near the Ranch Community.

Highway 5, Cabarete
What to bring to the tour
If you book one of these horseback riding tours via a tour operator, they will explain what is needed in terms of clothing, shoes, etc and they also include snacks and drinks. You will get wet and feel the sun, so having UV protection, a cap or hat, and long pants will come in handy. Any shockproof cover for cameras or mobile phones should do the job, and think of a bathing suit in case you want to take a dip in the river or one the beaches along the path.

Your Next Travel Destination
My darlings, I am bouncing back from my amazing travels on the Seabourn. Naturally, I am already thinking of all the places I want to travel to next!
Now I am aware that I am very fortunate to be able to explore the world and spend time in places like Monte Carlo and Sardinia. However, I want you to know that you too can travel on a budget. Do not let your wallet limit your life experiences!
The world is waiting for you to explore it at any age and at any time.
Finding Adventures On a Budget
Discovering your next destination on a budget can be fairly easy, although it might take a little bit of research. You don't want to find yourself looking at a destination like Norway, which is one of the most expensive places to live and travel.
But do not let the research and planning phase discourage you. Make it fun and research with your travel partner. It will make planning your next trip much more enjoyable and exciting.
To make your research easier, here are a few places to start with! Maybe one of these will spark your travel imagination:
New Orleans, Louisiana
The south is a wonderful location for budget-friendly travel. Rich and full of history, New Orleans, Louisiana is a fantastic place to enjoy most of the year. After all, there is a good reason this city is nicknamed the Big Easy.
Notable for its all-hours nightlight, spicy fusion food from the cultural blend of French, American and African culture as well as an out-of-this-world music scene. I liken it to the Vegas of the South. It's a very exciting place and you will always be able to find something to do.
You'll find plenty of free things to do here including people-watching in the French Quarter, strolling through old, historic neighborhoods with beautiful houses and plantations or bar hopping the live music venues on Frenchman Street.
You can also find beautiful hotels here, reasonably priced at $100 per night. I would suggest looking into New Orleans' thriving Airbnb scene as well. Staying in a local neighborhood has many benefits, including your own kitchen where you can make your own meals if you'd so desire.
In Grenada, the weather is beautiful all year round. Called the Spice Island, this Caribbean country is a hilly destination known for its nutmeg plantations. Because of the great exchange rate when converting from the US dollar, this travel spot is an adventure to consider.
Peak season runs January through April, making the off-peak months a great time to find lower airfare and luxury accommodations at stellar prices. If you love nature, beaches and local vendors, a trip to Grenada is in the cards for you.
For some added fun, visit The House of Chocolate to bring a bit of the Spice Island with you. Here you'll discover local spices–don't forget the nutmeg–to bring home with you!
As well, learn all about the fascinating history of our beloved chocolate. And don't forget to visit the capital site, St. George's, with colorful homes and Georgian buildings overlooking Carenage Harbour.
Atlanta, Georgia
Nicknamed "Hotlanta," Atlanta, Georgia could be a great place for your next travel destination on a budget. With history, nightlife, fun day excursions and fantastic Southern hospitality to rival any Southern city, Atlanta offers plenty of things to do and see.

text: Christopher E. Soulard Roy E. Petrakis Jessica J. Walker 2019 Accurate monitoring of surface water location and extent is critical for the management of diverse water resource phenomena. The multi-decadal archive of Landsat satellite imagery is punctuated by missing data due to cloud cover during acquisition times, hindering the assembly of a continuous time series of inundation dynamics. This study investigated whether streamflow volume measurements could be integrated with satellite data to fill gaps in monthly surface water chronologies for the Central Valley region of California, USA, from 1984 to 2015. We aggregated measurements of maximum monthly water extent within each of the study area's 50 8-digit hydrologic unit code [HUC] watersheds from two Landsat-derived datasets: the European Commission's Joint Research Centre (JRC) Monthly Water History and the U.S. Geological Survey Dynamic Surface Water Extent (DSWE). We calculated Spearman rank correlation coefficients between water extent values in each HUC and streamflow discharge data. Linear regression fits of the water extent/streamflow data pairs with the highest correlations served as the basis for interpolation of missing imagery surface water values on a HUC-wise basis. Results show strong (ρ > 0.7) maximum correlations in 11 (22.4%) and 25 (51.0%) HUCs for the DSWE and JRC time series, respectively, when comparisons were restricted to imagery and gages co-located in each HUC. Strong maximum correlations occurred in 39 (79.6%; DSWE) and 42 (85.7%; JRC) HUCs when imagery was paired with discharge data from any study area gage, providing a solid basis for reconstruction of water extent values. We generated continuous time series of 30+ years in 35 HUCs, demonstrating that this technique can provide quantitative estimates of historical surface water extents and elucidate flooding or drought events over the period of data collection. Results of a non-parametric trend analysis of the long-term time series on an annual, seasonal, and monthly basis varied among HUCs, though most trends indicate an increase in surface water over the past 30 years. application/pdf 10.1016/j.jag.2019.101973 en Elsevier Integrating stream gage data and Landsat imagery to complete time-series of surface water extents in Central Valley, California article

3 Killed, 1 Wounded At Shooting North Of Seattle; Suspect In Custody
Three people were killed and a fourth was injured in a shooting in Mukilteo, Washington north of Seattle, according to police. About 15-20 people were partying at home in the Chennault Beach neighborhood when gunfire broke out around 12:30 a.m., according to Mukilteo Police, NBC station KING5 reported. No other details about ages of the victims or what was happening in moments leading up to the shooting have been released.
The shooting happened in the Chennault neighborhood, not far from the Boeing airfield between Seattle and Everett. Police say the gunman was gone when officers arrived, but interviews from those at the scene led them to identify a suspect and a vehicle. A trooper with the Washington State Patrol spotted the suspect's car about two hours later on I-5 South near Chehalis and pulled the driver over, taking him into custody without incident. His name has not been released.

"My granddaughter called us about 20 minutes after midnight that she was hiding; that there had been a shooting and that two of her friends were shot and she was shot at," said Susan Gemmer. "We jumped out of bed, got dressed and got in the car as fast as we could." Gemmer said her granddaughter was OK, but in shock.
The weapon that is believed to have been used in the shooting has also been found, according to a Twitter post, citing Lewis County PD. The gunman is said to have been armed with a rifle.
Police told reporters at a news conference that no other suspects were being sought.

No further information was immediately available, police told reporters.
Police have sealed off the neighborhood where the shooting took place, establishing a meeting place for parents and relatives at the nearby Church of Latter Day Saints on Harbour Pointe Blvd.
"Tonight our community has been shaken to the core," said Mukilteo mayor Jennifer Gregerson. "We grieve with the families who have lost those in this horrible event."
Several police agencies from around Snohomish County are helping with the investigation, including officers from Brier, Edmonds, Lynnwood, Mountlake Terrace, as well as deputies from the Snohomish County Sheriff's Office and troopers with the Washington State Patrol.
Mukilteo is a waterfront city in the state of Washington, near the Canadian border, with a population of just over 20,000. It is one of the most affluent Seattle suburbs and Money Magazine ranked it 10th out of its 100 top places in the US to live in.
Neither the identity, nor any information about the shooter's motives was available at this time.

Mysterious pattern of cosmic radio signals repeats every 157 days
Scientists have picked up on a series of radio bursts coming from distant space that form a repeating pattern.
Fast radio bursts, known as FRBs, are millisecond-long busts of radio waves that travel through space. They've been periodically picked up by radio telescopes here on Earth since they were discovered in 2007.
Now a new study has determined that there's a pattern in one particular burst that repeats itself every 157 days.
Although scientists have been using artificial intelligence to comb through the huge amounts of cosmic data, they still aren't sure where the FRBs are coming from and what's causing them.
But the team from the University of Manchester used the Lovell Telescope at the Jodrell Bank Observatory to observe the FRB called 121102 for four years and spotted 32 bursts.
These bursts repeated in a cyclical pattern that repeated every 157 days — with bursts coming in the first 90 period, followed by 67 days of silence, before the bursts begin once again.
Dr Kaustubh Rajwade of The University of Manchester, who led the new research, said: 'This is an exciting result as it is only the second system where we believe we see this modulation in burst activity. Detecting a periodicity provides an important constraint on the origin of the bursts and the activity cycles could argue against a precessing neutron star.'
The team confirm that FRB 121102 is only the second repeating source of FRBs to display such periodic activity.
To their surprise, the timescale for this cycle is almost 10 times longer than the 16-day periodicity exhibited by the first repeating source, FRB 180916.J10158+56, which was recently discovered by the CHIME telescope in Canada.
'This exciting discovery highlights how little we know about the origin of FRBs,' said Duncan Lorimer who serves as Associate Dean for Research at West Virginia University and, along with PhD student Devansh Agarwal, helped develop the data analysis technique that led to the discovery.
'Further observations of a larger number of FRBs will be needed in order to obtain a clearer picture about these periodic sources and elucidate their origin,' he added.
