It was 6am Sunday 24th February, as our cruise ship passed under the Sydney Harbour Bridge. After which we went to the buffet breakfast area, into the melee of eager people all pushing and shoving to get their plates filled ready for the early start in Sydney, Florie and I were hard pressed to pick out a few meagre crumbs to sustain our dwindling bodies.
All this activity so early in the morning was because we are to loose 250 Australian passengers today, and they had to be out of their cabins early, and they were all pleased to be going back home and 'off this dammed ship' as many of them have often said, as we made the tortuous journey from the UK. None of the Aussies we have met have been happy with any aspect of this ship or its services.
Late last night there was an announcement over the PA in our cabin by the captain, about another tropical storm that would prevent us from landing in Hamilton Island in a few days time, so he has made the decision to stay in Sydney an extra night (HURRAH!) then the message was repeated in German and Dutch then it was given in English so we could all understand it.
The breakfast eating area was packed to bursting point (that is well past the aggravating point) with people wearing what we normally wear onboard, shorts loud shirts and sandals, all of these many people are growing out of, but now there are people in going home gear, many with large boots and backpacks or suit cases which only add to the growing tense atmosphere of polite hostility as the direct Aussies battle tooth and nail with the pissed off Brits Germans and Dutch, to get their fair share of the food, after all, all they did was complain about everything. On days like this, those in the know go in pairs, one to get the seat and stay there while the other gets some food and drink then the other gets it, Florie does it with a smile and talks people into going away, I do with a scowl, its quicker they just curl up at the edges and scurry away.
While we were noshing breakfast, a bunch of Aussies came to see us and started hugging kissing us and saying goodbye, all bringing tears to the eyes, two of them live only 20 minutes away, and another couple will be stopping in Sydney for four nights in Circular Quay before flying home to Brisbane and are happy to be getting off this accursed ship, I don't think they enjoyed their cruise as they shed tears of joy as they skipped like children off the ship.
Early morning, it is 20°C with a 50% chance of rain, so we are only taking one umbrella with us. Well folks its coming up to 8am now, and we are ready to leave the cabin and wait in a public area, to be called to Australian Immigration, so God only knows when we will get away.
Later – Believe it or not we were called off the ship at 8.01 through immigration and on the town shuttle by 8.25 then dumped on the boardwalk of the waters of Darling Harbour before 9am. We were in an area called Barangaroo and we walked left down into Cockle Bay towards the heart of Darling Harbour on our way to China Town. As we walked, we were harassed by young runners, different colours and creeds, all in their lycra running gear, they appeared upset at having dozens of old codgers in their way, some were alone some ran in gangs all talking as they went, how do they do that? I have trouble talking while I'm driving. I had the distinct impression that they didn't like interlopers on their Sunday morning jaunt.
Florie and I slowly walked about a mile to the ICC Theatre Building near Darling Harbour Gardens when it started to rain, when we found we had latched onto good free Wi-Fi as we sheltered for a few minutes. We dodged into a lovely cafe just near there and had hot fresh ricotta cake with fresh berries and two coffees (delicious) I can't find the receipt to give you the name but if you are near the ICC building, it's about 50 paces down from there, it's well worth a visit, and they are so friendly.
We continued on to China town about another 7 minutes walk away to visit Paddy's Market for just to look round, and left $170Au there, filling two large carrier bags just looking! By this time the town had woken up and was filling with people and traffic, well, filled with stationary traffic, would be a more accurate description, each one had ill tempered drivers in, angry at the major civil works for the new tram lines being laid in the city.
All too soon it was noon and we found a convenient Hotel, well we were stood outside it really, and it had a an advert for a meal deal with a drink for $16 so in we went, the young lady behind the bar was about 5' 10" long black hair past her shoulders, beautiful smiling eyes, lovely full lips, her stunning figure was encased in a grey smock and tasteful black flats she had long fingers and had her nails painted, she was possibly in her thirties, she came from Germany on holiday and never went back, her smile would melt ice, I think, I can't remember, I only saw her for a second, and the food was OK in there.
All too soon we had to leave and we found a city centre supermarket, where we got a bottle of lemon juice $1, to make Honey and lemon to ward off the ships cough, 2 large bars of Cadburys chocolate $2 each, and other odds and sods for our comfort. Next door we picked up 2ltr of red wine for $10, which is better than the £18 a bottle aboard the ship. Ladened down with all these goods we trudged back (what seemed like 10 miles) to the coach pick up point, where a nice air conditioned coach awaited us, we weren't on the coach more than two minutes when it started raining and a few old people up the road started running towards us, soaked to the skin by the time they scrambled aboard our coach, revealing more than we wanted to see, I closed my eyes and thought of the German bar maid.
We had been out for over 6 hours, walking in the main, and we were both tired I don't mind admitting, it had been a nice morning with variety, beauty and commerce, mixing with the young population, most of them we saw were between 20 and 30 walking round near naked some of them, with just a light scattering of old farts dressed in long trousers and checked shirts with new big Australian hats on and wives alongside carrying big handbags, like a parody of Les Dawson.
We spent a very quiet afternoon, waking up getting ready slowly for a light bite at dinner time. The ship feels very different now the Aussies have gone; it's filled with 250 new people walking around looking at signs that tell you where you are on the ship, a lot of them still in their UK clothes and big walking boots, their cases haven't caught up with them yet. At the buffet, missing are the faces we used to see often and said hello as they passed by their plates full up with veggie's, now we have these new faces wandering round with plates in their hands half full of food not knowing where to go.
Final note, 10pm now and the ship is moving berths, from White Dock to Circular Quay so tomorrow we can walk directly into town from the ship, as the ship moves slowly round the harbour the whole city is lit up like a Christmas tree, where we walked in Darling Harbour the lights are so bright my camera won't resolve it, going under the bridge at night is a new and lovely experience, but I see it from the cabin, not up on deck, my days of running up to the top deck anytime day or night to capture a killer shot are gone, no one see's the photos anyway, so I look through the grubby windows and enjoy the moving lights until 11pm when we settle into our new berth in Circular Quay, then I pull the curtain on the day, Good night, sorry to keep you up so late.
Good night

Fantastic--we are engaged!!
Greetings from LLUSPH and happy 2016! My name is Ernie Medina, Jr., and I've been an alum since '93 (MPH, Health Promotion and Education; DrPH, Preventive Care). Like many of you, I've watched things happening here at LLUSPH from the outside for the last 23 years, and I've often wanted to help in some way. Whatever your experience has been since you left LLUSPH, we want to re-connect and re-engage with you, because we know a vibrant alumni network is part of a vibrant school.
That is why I accepted the call from the dean to take on a new role as Director of Alumni Engagement. I asked to change the name from "Alumni Relations" to "Alumni Engagement" because that is exactly what I want to do: engage every single alumni that has a heart for LLUSPH and its students.
I look forward to re-connecting and re-engaging with each one of our thousands of alumni all over the globe. Whether it's via e-mail (email@example.com), text message (909-747-5935), Facebook (ernie medina jr), Linked-in (Ernie Medina, Jr. DrPh, CHFS), Twitter (@ErnieMedinaJr), and yes, even in person or by telephone, I want to hear from you! We also have a "LLUSPH Alumni Network" group set up in LinkedIn and Facebook where you can join us as well.
Blessings in 2016!
P.S. A special thanks to Dr. Albin Grohar, my predecessor, and his Alumni Administrative Officer, Wanda Lewis. Dr. Grohar will continue in his capacity of philanthropy and fundraising for LLUSPH, while Wanda will continue to work with me on alumni engagement.
Fantastic--we are engaged!!
This is a most welcome initiative. LLUSPH (in our time, it was School of Health) has a special place in our hearts. It set me out on a course of Health Evangelism. I have never been the same.
Paul Wangai Jr MD,MPH LLUSPH'83
Working on it! Are you in our private FB group? If not, hope you can join us there!
That's great you're involved with health evangelism. What exactly are you doing in that area? Are you at the Pathways megaclinic down in LA going on right now? I was there yesterday working in the "Lifestyle" section. Quite the outreach!
Fantastic. I am so excited to be able to hear what others are doing and get ideas. We have been working with refugees here in Battle Creek and are looking forward to sharing also what God is opening up for us here and getting some feed back and ideas from others.
Thanks for sharing, Shirley. Sounds like you're doing a good work there. Tell us more about it! Maybe we can feature you in an upcoming issue. E-mail me at firstname.lastname@example.com. Blessings!

"We make all of our beats from scratch", says K-Salaam, one half of the dynamic duo Beatnick & K-Salaam. "We design our own sounds, our own drums, we come up with new chord progressions. We don't need to sample, but people are already sampling us." From the crew that brought you the sounds behind Ms. Lauryn Hill's live show and the first production team in history to score music for the Olympics, comes "Movin It" featuring Midwest legend Tech N9NE & his Strange Music artist, Wrekonize.
The first single off the upcoming album The Bluest Flame, finds Tech and Wrek skating over the high octane track that combines Trap with Rock and R&B, accompany that with some bangin drums and a unique musical style that is both innovative and vintage at the same time. Adding words to the stellar production are the likes of Talib Kweli, Bun-B, Blu, Joell Ortiz and more. The scene has officially been for the kind of Hip-Hop and real music that the game has been missing.
The Bluest Flame drops October 12th worldwide. (The duo is also releasing their Reggae EP "Give Love" w/ Junior Reid on the same day.)

This article is contrary to the popular superstition that the United States was founded upon the basis of liberty and freedom. The United States was founded upon, by, and continuing state terrorism.
In the beginnings of the United States, in the 1700's, there were a handful of people, most holding the Unitarian philosophy, that desired and dreamt of a nation that would uphold and be dedicated to personal freedoms and liberty for a new nation. The beautiful rhetoric employed in the U.S. Declaration of Independence, the Articles of Confederation, and the Constitution can be traced back to the influence of these Unitarians. These men were not 'fundamentalist Christians' nor could they ever be considered conservatives. In fact, in that era, these men were the liberals.
They were not perfect men. In fact, in spite of their desire for personal freedoms they too owned and employed slaves. Documents and writings exist too that even then they were questioning their own right to have and to hold slaves.
The mistake of these liberals was to accept compromise with the conservatives. This allowed fundamentalist doctrines to creep in and poison the dream. These compromises allowed, over time, the newly created government to run rampant over citizens rights, and the rights and sovereignty of other cultures, peoples, and nations.
Many historians state that the beginning of the American Revolution was triggered by the Boston Tea Party. To the British Crown this was an act of 'Terrorism' by today's definition used by the United States. The Crown considered it rebellion, anarchy, and an uprising of ungrateful colonists. The seventeen drunken Freemasons that committed the act were simply having a night on the town, -- they were having 'fun'.
In truth, the Boston Tea Party was an unprovoked act of terrorism, by the definition that the United States would apply today.
The dream of a nation built upon freedom and liberty was soon lost after gaining independence from England. The Articles of Confederation maintained to a much larger degree the dream of independent freedom for the colonists and the new nations that it combined under it. It had its faults and a convention was called to repair those faults.
The convention created a compromised document, The Constitution of the United States. This constitution has been ruled by courts throughout history as an amendment to the Articles of Confederation. Some historians actually state, in error, that the Constitution is the ruling and governing document.
The representatives sent to amend the Articles created a compromise document that reads well and it tried to limit the powers of a federal government, through the hold out efforts of the Unitarians who were a political force to contend with. The conservative fundamentalists, touted they wanted the same thing, a small federal government, but kept entering clauses that created a monstrous federal government.
The new American nation ended up getting a document creating a federal government for rich white Anglo-Saxon men.
The compromise was then sent to the nations aligned under the Articles for approval of this amendment to the Articles of Confederation. The United States was supposed to be similar to the United Nations, a confederation of loosely aligned nations that by consent, agreed to a unified system of defense and coordination.
The powers of influence in Virginia were wealthy tobacco plantation owners. Even those elite recognized the loss of personal freedoms in this new constitution. They started a campaign to force the addition of the Bill of Rights to the document, that was noticeably absent of personal rights. Their money and influence did force the inclusion of those rights, but only for white men and mostly for the benefit of white rich men.
The Constitution was not created on the premise that all men are created equal, but that black men would not be allowed to vote but would be included by fraction as part of the head count to determine representation in the new federal government. Women were not to vote. Red men were not to vote or allowed citizenship whatsoever.
The liberals had lost the dream, through compromise, and some of them were guilty of advocating and entering clauses that would be the downfall to freedom and liberty.
Thomas Jefferson, one of the most famous of these Unitarians, was probably the first to cast aside the tenets of the Articles and the Constitution. He led the move, in violation of the powers of the federal government, to purchase Louisiana from Napoleon. The United States did not have the right or power under the Articles and the Constitution to purchase any territory. The larger question in dispute was did Napoleon have the right to sell Louisiana? The answer is NO he did not. Some of the lands he attempted to sell were lands that France held no jurisdiction over, that were historically, and factually held by Spain.
There are claims by the Washita Indians that Napoleon never attempted to sell the land nor did he. These documents purport that Napoleon only sold the forts and arsenals belonging to France. The land was never sold, but French jurisdiction only. In support of this claim by the Washita, Jefferson was recorded as saying the United States government could not buy the territory under the restrictions of the Constitution. All unsettled lands were handed back to the Washita Indians according to their recorded history, by Napoleon.
During these early stages of demise of the dream, the United States government was committing all kinds of atrocities, pre-emptive strikes, violating treaties, provoking other nations, stealing lands and territory from other nations, occupying lands not in the United States, -- i.e. the federal government was guilty of state terrorism. Their victims were the original inhabitants of the Americas whom the rich white man's government wanted to annihilate.
The United States was clearly defined by the Articles and the Constitution. The majority of the Indian nations relinquished their claims upon the lands defined within those documents and moved southward and westward away from white settlements. Some maintained their presence upon their homelands operating under treaties with the United States and acquiescing to the formidable power and state of the art weaponry the United States had at its disposal.
One of the most notable acts of state terrorism by the United States is one labeled, 'The Trail of Tears." In violation of treaties, in spite of heart rendering pleas, the United States threatened to exterminate these Indian people in favor of a few white rich elite powers that wanted the Indians' lands. Unable to muster weaponry to fight and defeat the United States the Indian nation was relocated from their 'garden of Eden' in Georgia to the barren badlands of Oklahoma. The scene would have reminded any scholar of the march of the Hebrews from Israel to Babylon by Nebuchadnezzar.
Conservative elite fundamentalists easily overlook the obvious. They cite 'higher law' and 'noble causes' to justify their crimes against humanity. These same conservatives then instituted a new doctrine, in violation of the Articles and the Constitution, called Manifest Destiny. Fundamentalist Christian Conservatives created this doctrine out of thin air, claiming God's providence and that prophecy had declared this insane viewpoint.
Had manifest destiny, sea to shining sea, been God's work, then it would have happened naturally and legally. What happened provoked wars with Indian nations, and with Mexico to grab California and claim it as part of the United States. More state terrorism by the Federal Government of the United States.
By this time in history, liberal views had lost nearly all influence. Liberal statesmen had compromised once too often, and compromised all remaining vestiges of liberty and freedom away to the conservatives. This same compromise lead to the 2 wars the U.S. is in right now and allowing inexperienced conservative buffoons to be appointed to high places in government. Compromise is sacrificing the ideals of freedom and liberty for all people of America.
By 1861 the two party system was beginning to develop to maturity in U.S. politics. The two major parties were both conservatives while liberals were relegated to relatively minor third parties.
1861 was the year that marked the end of the Confederacy of the United States and transformed it, without authority to do so, to federal unionism. A new nation was born, under wraps, also called the United States. The confederation was ended. A socialist national government arose.
The great experiment of a Confederacy based on liberty and freedom had come to an end. It had indeed only been an illusion, with a history of violating the creating documents.
The Civil War began with the United States provoking South Carolina, much like the United States is doing to Venezuela today. South Carolina had left the United States. It had every right to do so. It was operating independent of the federal government, when the U.S. provoked the independent nation by sending war machinery and troops to a South Carolina island.
Fearing an attack from the United States, South Carolina fired upon the ships and troops. This gave Lincoln his 'justification' for WAR. It was 'wag the dog' back then, and it's 'wag the dog' today. The United States had no right or business in South Carolina waters or on a South Carolina island.
If you step back and look at the Civil War it was a war of Conservatives against Conservatives. It started over, just like the American Revolution, taxes. The United States had attempted to illegally collect taxes from the states. This was not a power granted to the federal government. The war was a culture war. It did not start off as a regional war, North vs. South. It was the U.S. federal government vs. the South. It was a war to guarantee that the United States federal government could trample on the Constitution for any reason so desired.
The United States provoked the attack and was again guilty of State terrorism. Emancipation of the slaves was merely another justification for creating war, when the Constitution and laws of the United States, clearly allowed it. Freedom for the black race in America was only a by-product of the Civil War, not a cause or reason. This same scenario was used to 'wag the dog' in the 'creation of weapons of mass destruction' to justify another war. This is a non-existent doctrine of 'higher law' or 'noble cause' used to stimulate and ignite the citizenry to support the illegal actions of their government.
After the war ended the United States marched into the Southern States destroying everything in their path, much like they have done to Iraq in recent days. Then began the continued destruction of a people and culture under the innocent sounding term, 'reconstruction.' Reconstruction is only another word for "OCCUPATION".
Reconstruction under the United States is more state terrorism. Reconstruction is the destruction of the democratic forms of government in a land, and replaced with a perverted democracy under the rule and thumb of the United States military.
To further guarantee that the United States federal government would be able to operate with impunity, though illegally, the U.S. started 'creating' new states - states they would control. Three hundred white men could vote a territory into the United States even though 30,000 Red men were living on the land. One percent of the population determining the fate of another people's land and nation. The Indians would then face the forces and acts of U.S. state terrorism. The U.S. would begin a campaign of genocide to remove them from their homes and homeland.
The U.S. by the constitution, had no power or authority to 'create' states. Nearly all the western states were 'created' illegally and employed state terrorism to accomplish their illicit goals. Treaties with the United States were not worth the ink they were written with -- nor was the U.S. Constitution.
The terrorism by the United States under 'reconstruction' (a.k.a. & i.e. occupation) was so reviled by Texas and Louisiana, that newspapers in New York were writing editorials stating they were afraid that Texas was going to go to war against the U.S. again in 1881.
The acts of terrorism by U.S. troops and the U.S. government was sparking a new round of 'war' talks in Texas and Louisiana. Again, much like we observe in Iraq and Iran today. The U.S. terrorized the legislatures of Louisiana and Texas and forced votes inside the 'democratic' houses under gun point. Very similar to what they are doing in Iraq. The U.S. does not WANT democracy.. it wants U.S. federalism under the disguise of democracy.. it's hypocrisy.
This new United States, created in 1861, unfettered with having to obey the Articles or the Constitution, and in another act of state terrorism, landed in Hawaii and took over their government and established U.S. Military rule over that land and people.
The U.S. took over Puerto Rico and successfully ousted Spanish claim over Cuba, where the U.S. ruled under a puppet government that the U.S. installed, until Castro reintroduced democracy in Cuba. Only later, did Castro turn to communism, after his democratic government was rejected by the U.S. government, because it was not under U.S. control. This same attitude is now seen in the way the U.S. is acting toward Venezuela.
The Bay of Pigs was only another incident in the United States' government committing state terrorism, as was its involvement in Nicaragua, Colombia, and hundreds of other nations.
Had the North Vietnamese not be worthier and more valient opponents, the U.S. would still be committing state terrorism and interfering in the affairs of Vietnam, illegally. This was 'class warfare' and the valor of the troops on the ground on both sides were immaterial. Troops fought valiently.. but they fought for a lie, and for the rich white man's government. The real contestents were China and the U.S. The Vietnamese were little more than pawns in the game.
The United States started on this track of state terrorism in 1776 and through illegal evolution and perversion of the creating documents, it continues rampant throughout the world with terrorist actions. In 1995 the U.S. had troops in 196 nations of the world. In 1995 there were 217 nations on planet earth. State terrorism and the threat of state terrorism has been the business card of the United States since its beginning, even against its own people.
The United States is following in the footsteps of its mother England, who too under several crowns ruled most of the world from 1600-1900 by means of state terrorism.
Unfortunately the claims of Iraq and Iran, yea, most of the Middle East is right.. its factual. The U.K and the U.S. have been interfering in their lands, their people and their governments for several hundred years. The U.S. and U.K. were creating wars in Iraq and Iran even before World War 1, with acts of state terrorism. Every world power in history -- got there -- not by love of the subjects -- but by state terrorism against nations and peoples that were less capable of defending themselves.
As the Iraqi's become insurgents in their own lands, remember the people of the Southern States became 'rebels' in their own lands. The U.S. control of the media has been a vital tool in their illicit state terrorism and acquisition of foreign lands.
Hitler and Napoleon were not allowed to continue their state terrorism by the same nations perpetrating state terrorist actions today. Napoleon was infringing upon England's state terrorism goals, as Hitler was on the United States and England.
It's time for the Nuremburg Trials of all Nuremburg Trials.. and bring the U.S. and England up for the crimes against all humanity, nations, and people since their beginning. These two have the longest continuing history of state terrorism under the longest rule of the same governments seated and in power.
It's time for the pot to quit calling the kettle black. It's time to end state terrorism. It's time to disarm all nations, starting with the biggest bully nation first.
Pre-emptive strikes are terrorism. Wars against nations that have not provoked or threatened the people of the United States are ILLEGAL WARS. Undeclared wars are and have always been ILLEGAL.
It's in the hands of the people of the United States to stop this government from any more atrocities against ourselves, as at Waco in 1993 and against people half a world away. The fifty nations comprising the long lost confederacy under the Articles of Confederation as amended, need to reclaim their authority over the federal government. These 50 states need to have a new convention, nullifying the amendment call Constitution, and re-amending it to recreate the confederacy of nations it was supposed to be all along. Without such action the United States will self implode as did Rome, from spreading an empire beyond the resources needed to manage such huge holdings.
A terrorist nation can be identified by one particular trait. It issues orders, demands, and expectations, along with threats to force people or nations to bow to its will. This is exactly what the U.S. did to Saddam Hussein 2 years ago, eventually culminating into the U.S. invasion of a nation at 'peace' with its neighbors and trying avoid war with the United States. Absolutely nothing Saddam could have done would have stopped this terrorist nation from invading Iraq. The rich white man's government controlled by conservative fundamentalists had already declared their illicit and immoral 'noble cause' and sold their wag the dog propaganda to the people in the U.S. This is exactly what the U.S. did to the Taliban in Afghanistan. This is exactly what the United States did to South Carolina, Texas, Louisiana, and the other southern states calling it 'higher law'.
The United States, due to its terrorism worldwide is viewed as grand hypocrisy by other peoples. This view is candid and its truthful. We in the U.S. are blinded by seclusion, and most never know that rest of the world views us as hypocrites.
We must ignore rhetoric from Washington D.C. It is purely for propaganda purposes --- Propaganda against its own people. There are no American interests in a foreign country that call for war. There are truly no American interests beyond our borders. Oil in the Middle East is Middle East Oil. Not American Interests.
If we in the U.S. don't have the oil needed to fuel the economy, then we can develop other energies to supply our needs. Acts of terrorism to illegally gain control of oil in a foreign country is not what the Articles of Confederation allowed.
Don't let D.C. 'wag the dog' in front of you any longer. It's only propaganda to get you to support its illegal terrorist acts. There were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. The U.S. simply 'wagged the dog' and conservatives and liberals alike jumped for the bone. Now men, women, and children are dying for this lie. Now we the people in the U.S are obligated to rebuild what the U.S. destroyed.
We the people cannot afford to continue down this path of terrorism by our own government. Let's change that government or dissolve it.
I have given less than 10% of the terrorist functions and actions of the United States federal government above. Yes, it's a shame that the U.S. demise began so early.. what's more.. It's a Crime against humanity.
Just say NO!
Say no to U.S. Terrorism

I've used Instashare for some time to send screenshots when testing on both iOS and Android devices. The fact it works on both iOS and Android platforms means its better than anything built into those systems.
You can also download and install Instashare apps on your Mac and PC, which I use as the location to send the screenshots to.
To share screenshots/images, you normally open up the Instashare app and then select the image(s) to share and the device to send to – pretty simple and quick.
Now in iOS 8, there's an Instashare extension – this means you don't even have to open up the Instashare app on the device – in the Camera Roll, select Share icon and then you can directly select Instashare (alongside the usual Mail, Message, Twitter etc) and then select the device to send it to. See screenshot below.

Scripting Question
How do I create a physical UEFI based Windows 10 image from scratch using a Dell 3060? Is this just a matter of setting up the BIOS for UEFI prior to installing Windows 10?
01/16/2019 923 views
I don't use VM, but keep the device off the network and install all the apps using stand-alone exe's. We capture the image using Ghost.

I use a Dell 5050 and the only thing you really should do is remove any add in cards and make the as simple as possible. Set bios to uefi only and boot dvd as uefi, install, sysprep and capture
Answered 01/17/2019 by: SMal.tmcc
Thank-you!! So, I can boot to the windows 10 installation media this way under UEFI and ALSO, boot to my Ghost boot media when capturing as that is on a DVD as well?

As parents, we spend a fair amount of time agonizing over our mistakes. Certainly, we would have done many things differently. If only we hadn't been grown children ourselves when we made our relationship choices and eventually married. Most of us had no idea our marriages would end. If we had, we wouldn't have walked […]

"The struggle ends when gratitude begins." – Neale Donald Walsh
"When you are going through something hard and wonder where God is, remember the teacher is always quiet during a test." – WhoSay

"Everything we do should be a result of our Gratitude for what God has done for us." – Lauryn Hill
"To trust God in the light is nothing, but trust him in the dark — that is faith." – C. H. Spurgeon
"I'm thankful for so many things, but mostly, God. Without him, I'd have nothing else to be thankful for."
"If you must look back, do so forgivingly. If you must look forwards, do so prayerfully. However, the wisest thing you can do is be present in the present, gratefully." – Maya Angelou
"Gratitude is not only the greatest of all virtues but the parent of all others." – Cicero

Clemmons is a village located just outside Winston-Salem with a renowned park, beautiful natural surroundings, and well-maintained neighborhoods.
Real Estate
Clemmons residents enjoy laid-back residential living just outside Winston-Salem. With quiet and friendly neighborhoods filled with a variety of homes, Clemmons is a wonderful community to call home. There is an abundance of new construction homes in Clemmons, in addition to a selection of restored historic properties.
Lifestyle and Attractions
Clemmons is a rapidly growing village in Forsyth County located about 10 miles southwest of Winston-Salem. As a suburb of the city, this residential area of about 20,000 enjoys laid-back living just minutes from the conveniences and attractions in Winston-Salem. Furthermore, I-40 runs through Clemmons, making the town highly accessible from nearby cities and suburbs. The new Novant Health Clemmons Medical Center and other medical facilities have created positive relocation growth for the community of Clemmons.
Tanglewood Park is the focal point of the town. This recreation center and park is located alongside the Yadkin River, offering a number of recreational activities and ample space to enjoy nature. The park hosts a pool, horse stables, golf courses, fishing spots, and boat rentals, in addition to the Tanglewood Park Arboretum, a rose garden and the Tanglewood Golf Club. Tanglewood Park is the setting for the town's biggest community event, the Tanglewood Festival of Lights, a light show and holiday celebration. Clemmons also hosts the North Carolina Wine Festival every summer.
Nearby Schools and Higher Education
Clemmons public schools belong to the Winston-Salem/Forsyth School System, the fourth largest system in the state. Clemmons is in the vicinity of 15 private schools, including St. John's Lutheran and Calvary Baptist Day School. There are no institutions of higher learning within Clemmons, but the town is near a number of colleges and universities, including Wake Forest University, Winston-Salem State University, High Point University and more.
Clemmons was founded by a man named Peter Clemmons in 1802. Clemmons' great-grandson, Edwin Clemmons, was in the stagecoach industry, and eventually became the owner of several stage lines that branched out from Winston-Salem through Clemmons, and eventually across the state into Virginia. The business grew in Clemmons, until the introduction of the railroad during the 1870s prompted Edwin to relocate his business to Asheville.
The village of Clemmons was incorporated as a municipality in 1986. Today, the Peter Clemmons House still remains on Clemmons Road, and the "Hattie Butner", the last and largest of Edwin Clemmons' stagecoaches, is on display at Village Hall.

The New Four Seasons Private Jet launches in 2021
Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts, a leader in the hospitality industry, shared his plans to launch the brand new Four Seasons Private Jet in early 2021. The new jet will combine sophisticated design and modern technology that will turn any journey into a carefree adventure.
The new plane is a narrow body Airbus A321LR aircraft, which hails from the new Airbus NEO family. It'll be reimagined and reconfigured by Four Seasons to seat 48 passengers, each in a lay-flat first class seat. The previous model, a reconfigured Boeing 757-200ER leased by luxury tour operator TCS World Travel from TAG Aviation, fits 52 passengers in lie-flat seats. According to Bloomberg, the Airbus was selected for its greater ability for customization and its longer range of flights, affording more direct routes. The interior appears to be more subdued and inspired by earth tones than the outgoing, bright colourful themes of the Boeing jet.
Booking for 2021 will open in the middle of this year and vary based on itinerary, which will be announced later this year; pricing on the current jet starts at $147,000 per person.
The new A321LR private jet, which is part of the Airbus NEO collection, will be fully customized to suit the individual and exclusive Four Seasons design, designed to reflect the ever-evolving concept of the industry's first Four Seasons Private Jet. The guests of the new jet are waiting for even more space, as well as improved and already luxurious amenities of the board.
"Four Seasons Private Jet is the definition of luxurious travels in the air, creating unique stories and memories associated with places and people during a relaxed and most comfortable journey," commented Christian Clerc, president of operational and operational issues at Four Seasons Hotels & Resorts. "Based on the success of the Four Seasons Private Jet, which sold out tickets in minutes, we intend not to stop there and continue to expand the boundaries, providing an opportunity to plunge into the world of Four Seasons in a completely new travel format."
The new private airliner will offer passengers the widest and highest individual cabins available on board the aircraft of this class. There will also be added a separate space for the lounge bar, where passengers can enjoy socializing and master classes from leading chefs, mixologists, as well as experts in art and healthy lifestyles, which will make the flight particularly exciting.
Four Seasons Private Jet brand chef will surprise passengers with an exquisite menu, inspired by the route and the cities in which the private jet will stop. The whole team consisting of attendants, a concierge, a director for work with guests, a medic and a professional crew will help to please the passengers - they will turn the flight into unique and unforgettable moments.
The design of each of the 48 seats was developed by Optimares - leather chairs from the Italian manufacturer Poltrona Frau and more spacious seats with ottomans await passengers, a personal iPad tucked in each seat will provide in-flight entertainment, too. The plane will boast larger bathrooms that'll be comparable to residential ones.
"While working on the design of the new Four Seasons Private Jet, we were inspired by the culture and concept of air travel in the old days, when every flight was special," comments Dana Kalczak, vice president of design for the Four Seasons network. "We placed particular emphasis on functionality and comfort, which will stimulate communication between passengers aboard, strengthening communication with people who share one adventure."

On August 30, 2011, human rights activists concerned about the state of issues in Balochistan attended a conference in remembrance of the International Day of the Disappeared at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C.
The event was organized by Balochistan rights activist Ahmar Mustikhan, who also writes for the Baltimore Foreign Policy Examiner. Mr. Mustikhan spoke about on the history of the oppression of Baloch people by the terrorists, religious extremists, members of the Pakistan military, and parts of the Pakistan government. In 1948, Balochistan was made a province of Pakistan, representing about 40% of the land mass and 10% of the population.
Mr. Mustikhan spoke in support of the International Convention for the Protection of All Persons from Enforced Disappearance, and called for the end of forced and involuntary disappearances of Balochistan. In his opening statement, he stated that Baloch activists have increasingly disappeared over the past years, were executed, and their bodies were thrown in the wilderness. He pointed to the photographs on the wall of three such victims Qayyum Baloch, Ilyas Nazar, and Qambar Chakar (image from conference – note graphic and troubling). He also provided a report from the Gwank radio station Sweden on the abduction and murder of Qayyum Baloch. Mr. Mustikhan also had statements from Meehran Baluch, Balochistan representative to the United Nations Human Rights Council and from Hyrbyair Marri. He also provided a list and photographs of Baloch missing persons. Mr. Mustikhan represents American Friends of Balochistan. An audio link to one of Mr. Mustikhan's description of abuses of Baloch activists is provided here. (Electronic copies are linked to his opening statement, the statement from Meehran Baluch, statement from Hyrbyair Marri, Gwank radio report, and International Day of Disappeared flier.)
Other speakers included representatives from Reporters Without Borders, Pakistan Christian Post, Hindu American Foundation, the Voice of the Copts, Mr. Andrew Evia, and Responsible for Equality And Liberty (R.E.A.L.).
Clothilde Le Coz, the Washington DC director of Reporters Without Borders, who expressed her organization's concern about the growing number of reporters and journalists that been kidnapped in Pakistan, Iran, China, Sri Lanka, Eritrea, Mexico, and Middle East. Ms. Le Coz also spoke to the growing threats to reporters in Pakistan who seek to report on Pakistan government abuses or violence from religious extremists, stating that Pakistan is becoming the most dangerous place for journalists in the world. Reporters Without Borders provided a statement on these victims around the world, called for the release of those that may still be held, and condemned the acts of execution of kidnapped reporters.
Dr. Nazir Bhatti, President of the Pakistan Christian Congress and leader of the Pakistan Christian Post, spoke on behalf of human rights for the Baloch people and on the continuing disappearances and abuses of Christians in Pakistan. Dr. Bhatti called for remembrance of those who have suffered under such abuses, oppression, and murder, and asked us to remember the pain of those who have suffered in Pakistan. He stated that there has been a continuing rise in missing person cases in Pakistan, that the armed forces have been rounding people up and putting them in detention, then bodies of the executed are being thrown out into the streets. In Karachi during the last couple of weeks, he stated that bodies of the executed have been put into boxes, and the military have called to their families to pick such bodies up. He stated that the targeted killings and missing persons are becoming an increasing problem in Pakistan, and that the international community is not concerned about minority rights in Pakistan. Dr. Bhatti also spoke on the persecution of Christians in Pakistan, and he spoke of one leader who was killed and how handbills were put on his body that this is what would happen to those who spoke out against the blasphemy law. He also spoke out the case of the Pakistan woman Asia Bibi, who has been convicted of "blasphemy," and that the Lahore High Court is not hearing her appeal. He also spoke out on other oppression, violence, and murder of Christians because of their religion. He urged human rights activists to continue to work towards the human rights of minorities in Pakistan. He stated that it is "immoral, illegal, and inhuman" to keep a person in custody without charges beyond the period required by law to bring them before a magistrate, and then find that this person has been executed. An audio link to Dr. Bhatti's remarks is provided here.
Jay Kansara with the Hindu American Foundation spoke of the oppression of Hindus within Pakistan, and described how continuing oppression, violence, and murder of Hindus had led to their numbers dwindling within Pakistan. Mr. Kansara also stated that elected officials and representatives within the police were were either ignoring such violence against Hindus, or actively tolerating it. He provided a booklet on the 2010 survey of human rights for Hindus in South Asia and the diaspora.
Mr. Andrew Eiva, a well known activist on human rights for Sudan and Eastern Europe, also came to speak on behalf of human rights for the Baloch people and the Sudanese people.
Ashraf Ramelah, with the Voice of the Copts, spoke on behalf of his shared concern for the human rights abuses against the Baloch people and he also spoke on the similar abuses of the Christian Copts in Egypt. Mr. Ramelah remarked that the photographs of the murdered Balochs reminded him of the violence against the Coptic people, including the terrorist murders outside of Coptic churches in early January 2011. Mr. Ramelah spoke on the need to reject extremist views that continue to oppress the Copts in Egypt, including those who believe they have the right to rape and abuse Coptic women.
Jeffrey Imm, with Responsible for Equality And Liberty (R.E.A.L.), condemned the efforts to dehumanize the Baloch people by those who seek violence and oppression of them. He pointed to a report from February 2011 that discussed a petition by President of the Balochistan High Court Bar Association Had Shakeel which stated there have been more than "5,000 cases of 'forced disappearances' in Balochistan." Mr. Imm urged the public to consider the human horror and tragedy of these abuses, and he urged the public not to let their hearts and souls become numb to such abuses. He also called for a new dialogue of mercy and compassion for one another, stating that "even the hardest heart beats in the body of another human being." He urged the government and people of Pakistan to listen to their hearts and their conscience on the oppression of the Baloch people and work to end such human rights violations. (Link to Jeffrey Imm prepared remarks; audio link to Jeffrey Imm remarks at conference).
Other attendees included other human rights activists and journalists. This included Syed Abdul Rahim (BBC), and Esther Ejim, Executive Director, Naija Worldwide Charities, among others.
On the International Day of the Disappeared, Responsible for Equality And Liberty (R.E.A.L.) urges the public of all kinds not to let compassion and mercy disappear from their hearts.
We urge all to Choose Love, Not Hate. Love Wins.

Go Through the Software
POS software is what most of the today's retailer use to conduct sales effectively. It's sometimes a cash register, computer, where cashiers input the products, compare the cost, and conduct the financial transaction. The most POS software also communicates with inventory levels to keep everything in balance. All the retailers in the business field whether small or big are moving away from these traditional POS systems and toward the cloud-based point of sale solutions.
And the Point Of Sale
The term is applicable to the retail shop where the transactions are done through cashier counter in the store. The point of sale-POS software includes
• Electronic cash registers systems
• Touch-screen display
• Barcode scanners

• The functioning of the software can be done within minutes
• Keeping track of the thousands of items that make up a small business can be a real chore
• Consistently keeping hard-to-find items in stock can add up to a competitive advantage over the POS software.
How to keep up the balance?
A good POS software for retail helps by allowing setting an alert that provides items at the re-order point. When the time comes to reorder, some of the POS systems gives the information of the most recent price paid as well as the average price one have paid in the last series.
These both aspects help in striking the best deal with the suppliers. Also, during the off hours, the retailers can run the report that provides the entire track of the inventory year to year so that the retailers can compare the orders from the past to present year. This can help to anticipate for the future business for the retailers. This is how the business will remain over a balanced track.

Recently, one of our patients called the office concerned that a filling had fallen out of one of his teeth. When these calls come in, my degree of alarm depends on which patient is on the phone. In this case, the patient was a prodigious grinder! Uh-Oh. Certainly grinding and excessive force on the teeth can cause fillings to leak and debond, but ferocious and persistent grinding increases the possibility of serious problems significantly.
When I went into the exam room and looked at the tooth in question, I was relieved to see an (apparently) intact tooth with a rather large filling missing from one side. I didn't realize the full extent of the damage until I started feeling for new decay with my instruments. With minimal pressure, one half of the tooth swung to the side revealing a fracture that ran the entire length of the tooth and all the way down to the bottom of the tooth where the roots separate.
Although modern dental techniques make repair of severely-damaged teeth possible, we still have no way to repair a fracture that extends onto the root surface. All we can do is extract the tooth and discuss options for replacing it.
Unfortunately, this patient just began wearing a bite guard a few years ago and the tooth probably had a crack present before that time. Once a tooth is compromised, its ability to survive non-ideal or excessive forces is severely limited and small events (such as biting the wrong way or biting into something hard) can overload the tooth and cause serious or catastrophic problems.
If this patient had been treated with orthodontics (braces) and-or a properly-fitted bite guard earlier (even as long as 30 years ago), they may not have lost this tooth. Unfortunately, this is one more in a sequence of missing teeth caused primarily by a non-ideal bite and severe grinding.
The good news is that with consistent use of the guard, this patient had a good chance of saving the rest of the teeth, or at worst, delaying additional tooth loss. It's never too late to treat a non-ideal bite or excessive forces on the teeth.
I discussed my findings with the patient and discussed various options for the replacement of the tooth. For a variety of reasons, this patient did not want to pursue implant treatment for this particular site and preferred not to replace the tooth. I extracted the tooth with no complications and the site healed as expected.

I purchased a defective Kenwood TM-241 mobile VHF transceiver a while ago. It transmitted and received as it should, but the display was garbled and rendered the radio practically useless. Some times it did not respond to button presses either. Finally, the backup battery was near its end of life. Repairing the unit was not too hard, and once again it works like a charm. Read on and see how I did it.Read more

Dorothy's sketchbook had already gone around the circle once and was on it's second time around. This gave me the opportunity to see how things had been done before. There was some great work in this book, but it was a jumble of different things which didn't give me ideas to work on what people had done before me. This highlighted that a theme to a sketchbook could be a very good idea. With no theme, I worked in watercolour as I am experimenting with this medium at the moment.
I think I will have to set myself a theme if there is none specified in the next sketchbook.

Our consumption of fossil fuels has helped humanity in countless ways and saved countless lives. Fossil fuels heat our buildings, power our hospitals, and every day carry our children to school and our workers to their jobs and back home. But they also have deep costs that are not reflected in their price – pollution that leads to sickness and death, the oppression of human rights in dictatorships that thrive on oil money, corrupting democracies, and perhaps most worryingly, fundamentally altering our weather systems in ways that will make it harder for our farmers to grow enough food to feed the people on our planet.
We need to responsibly transition to benign forms of energy that do not require casualties. Because fossil fuel companies have shown an ability to shape our government's policy decisions, we are appealing directly to the fossil fuel companies to help the Gulf Coast communities that are most harmed by their activities and invest in the necessary transition to a safer, healthier, and more just world.
