I think I'll put everything in a canvas bag to give it good exposure.
Dean, I use screw top medicine bottles and would be interested in seeing how it fares.
Dave, I have a few of them I am planning on using. A few 35mm film cans and what ever I can find. Think I'll hang an ammo can in the tree too. I have a few matches to play with and it's a big tree.
Dip some in different waxes and coatings.
The typical plastic military match case. Oooh, and have some just in a regular Ziplock bag.
You should throw in a lifeboat match or two for comparision.
Can do. Coated some tonight. Need to start rounding up some containers. Thought I would get a medicine container and put one drop of water in it to see want effect it has.
I think it will be like Geocaching. There's a lot of good cache containers out there but some people just don't take the time to close them right or just don't care and they get wet.
Medicine container - yes! Very cool experiment! I love this kind of thing.
I don't know if it would go along with your experiment, but leave a regular lighter outside all winter. Does it end up better than some matches? Can it still light? Etc. Just food for thought.
I was thinking of a few lighters maybe a fero rod or two. Hate to lose a Zipo, but might find an old one. Maybe a few Flint lighters vs piezo.
Was looking for a few soap holder containers but couldn't find any yet. I've made a few kits out of them. Lot more room than a Altiods tin.
Was thinking of having an exposed bag and one in a milk jug with the bottom cut out.
Was on Facebook and someone wanted some life boat matches left outside and some lite every few days. So I thought I would do another experiment also. Do different coatings and leave them outside and light a few each day for a month. I have the matches. So far I have paraffin, bees wax, turpentine, nail polish, NewSkin, Hurricane, untreated. Anything else anybody wants?
I have a few kits from other people and most of them use pill bottles for match containers. Might have to do a few different things with them.
Miniature one shot liqueur plastic bottles might work for containers.
Have a few more containers to get. But I have paraffin, bee's wax, turpentine, boiled linseed, nail polish some just wrapped in tin foil matches. Some of the containers are candy, film, homemade elderberry case, cigar case, I'm going to make a waxed leather case and some out of shotgun shells. Have some sealed in straws.
I suggest putting a small bag silica gel dehumidifier crystals in with the matches.
would be interesting to see if it would make a difference.
In camera equipment they usually include a little cloth bag of silica crystals.
Keeps the vapor off the lenses I believe.

When you accidentally attempt to connect to the wrong server with password credentials is it possible for the administrator to read and log the password you used?
If you connect to my machine then you don't know if I'm running a normal ssh server, or one that has been modified to write out the password being passed.
Further, I wouldn't necessarily need to modify sshd, but could write a PAM module (eg using pam_script), which will be passed your password.
So, yes. NEVER send your password to an untrusted server. The owner of the machine could easily have configured it to log all attempted passwords.
The password is sent after the encrypted connection is established, but the remote server gets the password in plaintext.
If you care about that, the best and easiest solution is to use SSH keys.
If you have machines that cannot accept keys, then one solution would be to create a tool that stores your passwords safely, and then uses sshpass to always send the correct password depending on the server you're connecting to.
Now, the reason the password is sent in plaintext, is that it leaves all decisions of handling and storing it to the remote end, and the client can be totally dumb. There are a couple of different password hashing (storage) formats used in Linux and BSD systems during the last ten years or so (crypt(3)), none of which require support from the client.
Though that's partly because of history, too (i.e. it's always been like that). There are better challenge-response authentication protocols that could be used even with passwords. For example SRP, that provides the parties with a shared secret during the authentication. It has been implemented for some SSH servers, but the patch for OpenSSH is for a (very) old version.
To build on top of Stephen Harris's answer, here is a real-time view I built that shows what a modified PAM auth script would be able to capture when connecting to a box over ssh (a honeypot of sorts). I use a modified version of the PAM library lib-storepw.
SSH is a protocol which requires mutual trust. That is the reason why the OpenSSH client maintains a known_hosts file, to implement its trust on first use scheme.
OpenSSH: if the server is set to "PasswordAuthentication no" then is there any risk if the *client* is set to "PasswordAuthentication yes"?
ssh login a second server without password?
Where is the password stored for ssh authentication?

Marine, orphans speak basketball
Willoughby Mariano, Sentinel Staff WriterTHE ORLANDO SENTINEL
Even from inside a cramped Humvee, surrounded by Marines, this land of black dirt and red rock can make you feel alone, Sgt. Sean Osmond said.
Djibouti seems unearthly, the reservist said. In this desert country in the Horn of Africa, barren rock stretches to the horizon. Summer temperatures hover above 100 degrees. Dirt roads appear overnight, then blow away into the desert.
Life in Oviedo, Osmond's hometown, has almost nothing in common with life in Djibouti, he said.
Except for basketball.
At a tiny boys orphanage in the shadow of Camp Lemonier, the military base outside the country's capital, barefoot teens mimic the moves of U.S. basketball stars. He doesn't understand their language, but what he can decipher speaks volumes.
"I've actually heard one of the kids mention 'Shaq,' " said Osmond, 25.
The orphanage's basketball court is a reminder of life in peacetime, so after long days training troops or patrolling the desert, Osmond and others join them.
Since 2002, this tiny country of about a half-million people has become the headquarters for the war on terror in the Horn of Africa. After the U.S. invaded Afghanistan, many Muslim extremists moved to nearby Yemen and Somalia, two countries suspected by the U.S. government of harboring terrorists.
The roughly 1,500 U.S. forces that make up the Combined Joint Task Force, Horn of Africa, based at Camp Lemonier outside of the city of Djibouti, the country's seaside capital, oversee the counter-terrorism operation.
Their mission is to deny terrorists safe havens in Djibouti as well as Kenya, Somalia, Sudan, Eritrea, Yemen and Ethiopia. They train area militaries and secure the region as well as drill wells, renovate hospitals and perform other tasks that shore up the infrastructures of these impoverished countries.
This is Osmond's second tour of duty. The first was in Iraq. The poverty in Djibouti is far worse, he said.
"My time in Iraq made me appreciate life in the U.S.," Osmond said. "My time in Djibouti made me appreciate life in general."
The orphanage next to Camp Lemonier is a case in point, Osmond said. It's a small building, maybe 7,000 feet, where about 25 boys, ages 4 to 18, sleep in sparse rooms with little privacy and no air conditioning.
There is a soccer field, which was a patch of dirt covered in glass and cans before volunteers from the military base borrowed rakes and shovels to clean it up.
The basketball court is a well-kept but aging strip of asphalt. Until military volunteers helped fix it up, two poles bolted to two pieces of plywood served as baskets.
Electrical power is sporadic. The region's future is uncertain. But just about every afternoon, there's a basketball game.
Osmond volunteered at the boys orphanage because he figured he had something to offer. Other military personnel had spent their free time there, as well as at a baby orphanage where he sometimes bottle-feeds infants. The Eagle Scout and University of Central Florida graduate thought playing basketball with the boys sounded like fun.
His first game took place a few days after he arrived about four months ago. The boys were skinny and small, not the ideal build for a basketball player. Some were barefoot. The Marines were in their 20s, with years of grueling physical training behind them.
The Marines lost by about 15 points.
" 'You've got to be kidding me' ," he recalled saying to himself.
Playing is easier than talking. Although some of the older boys are learning to speak English hoping to get jobs at Camp Lemonier, many do not. The servicemen don't know the local languages, which include Arabic, French and other native languages.
All of them use sports to be at ease. The boys don't have video games, toys or other opportunities to play. The men sometimes work for 12 days on end.
"It really is a nice release," Osmond said.
Their objective is simply to play the game. Although some of the Marines keep score, the boys typically don't bother. They usually win, anyway.
The orphans play longer and better than the Americans, and display an uncanny knowledge of the game.
The kids chatter about NBA teams, dropping the jersey numbers of their favorite players. They mimic behind-the-back passes and other moves. They even trash-talk.
"I heard, 'We can take them on,' " Osmond said.
Osmond doesn't know where they learned all this.
"I've never seen them watch TV," he said.
Each game ends when the Marines are too tired to go on. At dusk, they all go home: the Marines to their base a few yards away, and the boys to their crowded rooms.
In time, Osmond said, the Marines hope to teach the orphan boys to play baseball.

As well as classical paper documentation, Blumenbecker also offers the complete digital identification, testing and documentation of your operating equipment – with numerous benefits for your company.
Our inspector recognises your equipment items on the strength of a barcode or RFID transponder applied to them, so ruling out the possibility of errors. Changes and additions to the data can be recorded immediately in the system.
Inspection and testing is performed on the basis of predefined checklists that comply with all manufacturer's instructions and legal regulations. The checklists can be adjusted in line with changes in specifications at any time.
The test report is issued to you immediately after the inspection. If the inspection should bring any defects to light, our inspector has access to all necessary spare parts and can immediately issue a tender for repair, which you will receive without loss of time.
The document portal contains all reports, instructions and other documents relating to your equipment items. The system constitutes a legally compliant filing system and is available for all operating equipment used in your firm, regardless of who the inspections are performed by. At the same time, it provides the possibility to plan inspection dates well in advance.
Blumenbecker Industrial Service 4.0 provides instant, current visibility into your equipment's maintenance and inspection status, upcoming work and related documents, all at the push of a button.
Our technicians attach stickers onto your equipment that contain an RFID chip and are labelled with a bar code and QR code. The stickers are highly resistant to dust, extreme temperatures and dirt. By scanning the chip or bar code, technicians can immediately pull up on their tablet all the information about a particular item of equipment.
Once an item has been clearly identified, technicians can then proceed with the inspection using a specified check list that meets all manufacturer requirements and legal provisions. The list can be updated to reflect current requirements at any time.
You receive the inspection report as soon as the inspection is done. We also offer a documentation system to hold all your reports, manuals or other equipment documents. With our system, you can store your documentation on certified servers, ensuring total regulatory compliance and reducing your liability while still having the freedom to plan inspections well in advance. This system can be used for all the equipment at your company, regardless of who conducts your inspections. That gives you the kind of complete, detailed maintenance, inspection and repair history that you need for preventive maintenance of all of your equipment.
We offer other end-to-end digital services, too. Contact us to learn more!
Blumenbecker use industry 4.0 for the switch-cabinet construction. High-speed for series and batch production.
We supplies two lines of standard robot welding cells. One for arc welding and one for laser welding.


A lay person licensed by the Diocese of Maine (valid for a 3 year period) to bring communion to persons who are unable to attend Holy Eucharist at the church. Being a sacramental people, we want to ensure that we meet the need of our aging parishioners and others with limited mobility to keep us connected with the One True Vine through the Eucharist. And through this pastoral visit, we are nurtured by Christ's body and blood as well as through the gift of presence and listening.
As the Bishop Steve explained, "It is a ministry that extends the communion rail from the church to the residences, bedsides, and hospital rooms of sick and/or infirm members of the congregation." As an extension of the Eucharist, therefore, by diocesan request this must be done within 24 hours of the consecration of the elements.

If there are any thickies still reading this thread, the Labour position can be easily understood by anyone with a CSE grade five in Media Studies, etc, or even by those who narrowly missed passing the eleven-plus. It is thus: if Labour gets power, they will negotiate a deal with the EU which they will then put to the people, with the alternative of remain on the ballot. How hard is that, chaps? And when it comes to that deal, it will involve a customs union, alignment with the single market and full rights for EU citizens. The EU will love it.
It's been as clear as that for ages. Any questions, leavers? Please let me know if it's too hard for you. Perhaps you'd be better employed trying to work out the plot of Spot The Dog.

If it is just that I haven't railed against it, then that is a very strange view point for you to take.
From: Jim Carroll
Isn't it strange that our resident flag-waggers don't give a toss about foreign interference in the forthcoming British election
Maybe they can persuade Putin to send one of his agents with some of their magic potion to rub out the opposition
Nigel - you should be ****** ashamed of yourself - I expected you to rise above your running-mate, who has welcomed it but - no - a matched pair!
The deal did not go ahead because Boris Johnson pulled it petulantly, because he tried, undemocratically, to force it through with a totally unreasonable programme motion. Who knows, had he consented to two or three more days for scrutiny, we could have been out of the EU tonight. A Tory issue, aTory problem, a Tory delay.
It's a bit like science, Nigel. Close scrutiny and a search for corroboration. Nothing's perfect, but I was fine with Full Fact on this occasion. Next time could be different. I wonder whether you apply the same principle to your Mail reading.

Instead of attempting to make an issue of brexit not happening, (because we all know it was sabotaged by remainer MPs aided by a biased Bercow), why not give us a summary of compo's position on Brexit. I confess that I am a little confused and the long awaited election gets closer by the day. Labour's wobbling is going to eviscerate them at the ballot box.
Libdems to the left, brexit party to the right, the middle ground will will be a blasted wasteland of the shattered remnants of shell shocked labour. Wishful thinking or reality?
I predict the brexit party will now rise in the polls now the die is cast, especially after a ringing endorsement from President Trump.
Meanwhile back at the ranch - another bad day for compo:
On the first day of the campaign trail, Jeremy Corbyn suffered three major election blows. For the first time in its 100-year-history, the Jewish Labour Movement effectively went on strike, saying it would no longer send out activists due to the 'culture of anti-Semitism'. Labour also lost a battle with the BBC after attacking their anti-Semitism documentary and its presenter John Ware for apparent inaccuracy . To make matters worse for Corbyn, Nicola Sturgeon described him as 'completely and utterly useless'

The Full Facts about Full Facts Claim
Jim Carroll
We checked Boris Johnson's claim that a Brexit extension will cost £1bn a month – and yes, it's wrong
Full Fact: The PM is misleading you. If you're going to make such a comparison, then you do need to actually compare the costs of both things
Tom Phillips @flashboy
Thursday 5 September 2019 12:50
In Boris Johnson's first prime minister's questions yesterday he claimed it would cost a net £1bn per month for Britain to stay in the EU beyond 31 October.
The claim echoes similar comments from foreign secretary Dominic Raab. Speaking on BBC Radio 4 earlier this week, he also said that the bill put forward by Hilary Benn and others – intended to rule out a no deal Brexit unless parliament consents – would cost British taxpayers £1bn a month. That's based on the fact that we would be paying into the EU budget for longer.
This is an example of how a claim can be misleading without necessarily being incorrect. It needs more context.
The figure is based on a comparison with a no deal scenario – something that the government itself has said it doesn't want. It relies on the assumption that under no deal, the UK won't pay the "divorce bill" agreed with the EU. And it completely ignores a pretty fundamental point: that no deal itself would have significant costs.
The "divorce bill" agreed by Theresa May's government already includes the UK's normal payments into the EU budget until December 2020. The legislation currently before parliament itself proposes an extension only until January 2020.
As such, any payments into the EU budget following an extension during this period would reduce the final "divorce bill" paid upon leaving the EU by the same amount. And so, leaving with a deal in January 2020 wouldn't cost more in EU budget contributions than leaving with a deal in October 2019 would.
This has already happened once: the original settlement was around £39 bn, but this is now down to £33bn, largely as a result of extending Brexit from March to October this year.
The government could of course plan to try and renegotiate this financial settlement before 31 October, but we aren't aware of any indication so far that they hope to do this. The government position is that it still wants to leave with a deal, and any renegotiation efforts are focused on the question of the Irish backstop.
If Johnson is comparing the cost of any extension to a no-deal exit at the end of October, then his figure of £1bn for monthly EU contributions is in the right ballpark. However, as BBC Reality Check has pointed out, this doesn't factor in payments received from the EU, which would reduce the amount by about a quarter.
It's also not entirely clear that leaving with no deal would mean we could avoid paying the "divorce bill", something which Boris Johnson has said several times would be his plan in a no-deal scenario.
When Full Fact looked at this question earlier this year, we found that under international law it's not clearly set out that the UK has to pay anything once it has left the EU. However, the EU would be within its rights to take the case to the International Court of Justice on the grounds of the UK's repeated commitments to pay, and the outcome of such a case would be hard to predict.
Like a lot of what's said by all sides in the Brexit debate, context is everything. While not necessarily wrong to compare the potential cost of an extension to a no-deal exit, it's misleading to do so given that the government's stated intent is still to leave with a deal.
And if you're going to make such a comparison, then you do need to actually compare the costs of both things – you need to factor in the fact that no deal itself will have both direct costs, and a broader economic impact. Most studies predict that the negative economic effects of leaving the EU will exceed the benefits of not having to pay the EU membership fee.

And Johnson has repeatedly lied by claiming that every month of brexit delay costs the country £1 billion. From the Full Fact website:
In the House of Commons this week, Boris Johnson has twice repeated his claim that extending the date of Brexit for three months would cost £1 billion a month.
If so we should not have further comments from remainers that the only reason (or even main reason) for Brexit is a forthcoming change in EU tax law: Full Facts
More of Johnsons supporter's are jumping ship.
This is a fine example of what happens when relabeling a newspaper article and not having a clue as to what is going on. One of tho MPs had the whip withdrawn and the other, a staunch remainer in a leave constituency, voted against the government in several pieces of recent legislation.
Along with many other denizens of the swamp they are leaving before being unceremoniously pushed by their constituents.
Neither, by the wildest stretch of the imagination can be regarded as Boris supporters.
So the attached link, as it is retitled, is simply false news.
"Unfortunate things, facts, aren't they Steve?"
Dunno, John. Know anyone here I could ask? :-). Oddly, I thought I could hear a clock ticking too but it appears to have stopped...Maybe the battery was only designed to "do" until October 31, then die...
MORE OF JOHNSON'S SUPPORTERS ABANDONING SHIP have had enough and are doing a runner
From: Backwoodsman
Unfortunate things, facts, aren't they Steve?
This is false, as we have said repeatedly. A three month extension costs the UK the same amount in EU budget payments as leaving under Boris Johnson's own deal on 31 October would have.
Mr Johnson should correct his untrue statements to the House.
Why it's wrong
The claim is based on the amount that the UK pays into the EU budget. Those payments are worth roughly £1 billion a month, although this doesn't take into account some money that the UK gets back from the EU, as BBC Reality Check has pointed out.
But under Boris Johnson's proposed deal, the UK will pay these budget contributions even after we've left the EU, until the end of December 2020. This is part of the financial settlement (better known as the "divorce bill").
This is the same situation as under Theresa May's deal—Boris Johnson's government did not renegotiate the financial settlement.
That means the budget payments made during a Brexit extension to January 2020 simply have the effect of reducing the total divorce bill upon the UK's departure. This has already happened before: the divorce bill was estimated at around £39 billion in March 2019, but is now down to around £33 billion as a result of extending the Brexit date by six months.
I note that the latest Dominic Cummings edict to all prominent Tories, in every soundbite to come, is that they must characterise Corbyn via the words "dither and delay." If they can work in "get brexit done" as well, that would be a bonus. Be prepared to hear both expressions emanating from the mouths of Tory sheep 20,000 times in the next few weeks.
The conservative party have reported momentum to the Electoral Commission. Tory vice-chairman Paul Scully has written to the Electoral Commission to raise their concerns about Momentum's failure to register as a non-party campaigner for the upcoming election. In less than 12 hours, Momentum claimed they've already raised £100,000.
If a non-party campaigner intends to spend more than £20,000, the law requires that they should be registered with the Electoral Commission. Momentum have already been spending money over the last couple of months so could well have already committed a technical breach. The law clearly states that under Political Parties Elections Referendums Act 2000 (PPERA) non-party campaigners are required to register with the Electoral Commission if they incur 'controlled expenditure' over a prescribed threshold during the 'regulated period' prior to an election. We are now in the regulated 'long campaign'.
I wonder how long it takes the electoral commission to react?
It should be pointed out that The electoral watchdog has been accused of anti-Brexit bias for having raided Nigel Farage's party HQ within hours of Gordon Brown demanding an investigation back in May.
No doubt many will be watching.
From: Workingtonman
me too, steve. and also your own post at 5.37
And I fully agree with DMcG's post of 03.10am.
"Steve Shaw wrote: Brexiteers are ultra-tribalists. They IGNORE the sixteen-plus million who voted remain"
"And Remainers? They ignore 17.4 million who voted leave."
This is completely skewed. We can't "ignore" the 17 million, because they are getting their way. What they decided impacts leavers and remainers equally. We challenge the referendum result because we see it as illegitimate. We make the argument that the question asked was way too simplistic with regard to the sheer complexity of the issue. We contend that the successful leave campaign was predicated on xenophobia, even using racist material at times, and was essentially a pack of lies and propaganda intended to deceive the large numbers of the electorate who have a tangential transaction only with politics and who are thereby vulnerable to that propagandising. I hasten to add that I don't defend the remain campaign in the slightest, a point which actually reinforces my contention that the referendum was illegitimate. On the other hand, remainers have been told, including on a number of occasions here, that we lost, even that we're losers, our desire to remain will be completely ignored and that we should get over it. I could predict that this post will provoke that response yet again. Losers are easy to ignore. Winners impose their will on winners and losers equally and can't be ignored.
Interesting survey a couple of days ago

After 31st January

I would treat all polls as suspect until the last minute, and even then if percentages are close the outcome cannot be predicted.
The joker in the pack this time is the Brexit party, and perhaps the millar tactical voting site.

Tuck off is of course the famous correction by the more prudish spell checkers.
And Remainers? They ignore 17.4 million who voted leave.
I never have, Stanron. My preferred outcome is not to leave but I have said from the outset that 17 million people should not be ignored and some sort of compromise is needed. Not only have I been told that "you lost, get over it" but I have been told to tuck off to Poland where I belong, that I am a traitor and that I should be shot. Not by you, Stanron, but that attitude seems prevalent amongst you brave brexiteers.
Steve Shaw wrote: Brexiteers are ultra-tribalists. They IGNORE the sixteen-plus million who voted remain
Brexiteers also ignore what is probably a big chunk of the 17.4 million (perhaps even a majority of it if there was any way of checking.) Many who voted leave wanted a Norway-style deal, as was talked about at the time. They are ignored as well: only the hardest of Brexits or no deal is allowed) That is one of the reasons I try (in vain it must be said) to distinguish Brexiteers from those who voted leave.
From: robomatic
I think given the gravity of the subject and the extension into 2020 another thread is warranted sequential-like.
From: Stanron
Not responding necessarily to that last post.
The mantra of brexiteers for the last three and a half years has been "we won, you lost, get over it." Clearly, they forgot that they got just over a third of the electorate and about a quarter of the country as a whole, but hey ho. Arsenal were beaten by Liverpool this evening, so came out with nothing whereas Liverpool came out with everything. Yet the thing was decided by the very last kick of a penalty shootout. As narrow a victory as is possible to achieve in the beautiful game. Well I don't live life like that. Passionate and tribalistic Liverpool fan that I am, I saw the merits of the young Arsenal team and will be looking out for them in future matches. I think that's pretty fair. Brexiteers are ultra-tribalists. They IGNORE the sixteen-plus million who voted remain. We are remoaners and we don't count and we should shut up about it. Well no we shouldn't. If leavers regard their precious referendum result as sacred, they should now have the humility, the conscience and the confidence to let the people have another say. I mean, lads, what are you scared of? That the will of the people doesn't coincide with yours any more?
The right to vote is the most immovable of the tenets of democracy
So why the insistence on ignoring the referendum vote?
You seem to get upset when Brexiteers hold to the tenet tenaciously.
Is it the wrong sort of vote, as you allude to above, and therefore should be ignored?
Unlike the illustruous Maggie(Blessed be her name) Labour is for turning - constantly.
Here is little toon for compo
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4ga_M5Zdn4
Quite so, Steve. I am sure there were those in New Zealand back in 1893 saying women should not have the vote because other countries did not give it to them.
The right to vote is the most immovable of the tenets of democracy. I sit in front of the telly some nights and hear the vox pops which include people who clearly haven't a clue what they're talking about. It's perfectly obvious that millions of people who voted leave didn't know what they were really voting for. I happily resist the urge to shout out that they don't deserve the vote. Millions of people who don't follow politics at all still vote. This is a matter of principle that has been fought for over centuries. To me, the principle is that I can vote because I live here, pay taxes here, work(ed) here and am affected by government policy. That applies equally to EU citizens who live and work here. There couldn't be much objection to a minimum period of residency of several years and an insistence that they must relinquish the right to vote in another country as well. I'm aware that no other EU country affords such a right. But in my view they should. That's where I am on this. I don't care to be told that I can't propose something more fair and just than what we do now simply because others don't propose it.
voting rights for EU citizens is an injustice issue that needs urgent fixing. It won't be fixed, of course, while we have a bunch of eurosceptics running the show. We'll remember that next time we hear Tories burbling on about their concept of "democracy."
It is worth knowing no other EU country offers other EU citizens voting rights in its general elections - as here, locals and European elections yes, general elections, no."Why should EU citizens in the UK be an exception in Europe?"
No.10 is opposed to the idea of extending the vote to EU nationals on similar grounds and said it would give EU citizens "wider voting rights" than UK nationals.
It seems you advocate creating an injustice.
Fact dear boy, fact!
"Labour is way ahead among those aged 18 to 34, where student finance looms large, according to Ipsos Mori, although that is more than offset by a clear Conservative lead among the over 55s and a marginal lead among 35- to 54-year-olds. Pledges made to pensioners and older working age voters by both sides will be critical – particularly after the Tory disaster of the dementia tax in 2017."
Why Tories don't want to lower the voting age, despite the solid arguments for it. Why Tories wanted the 12th, not the 9th. Tories, the party of the wrinklies. Brexit, the policy for the wrinklies...
Steve (no Tory but still wrinkly)
At 16 you can leave school and go into paid employment, when you will be subject to the same income tax regime as everyone else. You can join the army as a soldier at 16. You can marry and have children at 16. I note that the voting age for the Scottish independence referendum was 16. Whilst I support lowering the age to 16, I feel that it's a matter for more "leisurely" debate in Parliament than was possible yesterday. Trying to push it there and then risked putting off the election by months to allow for the bureaucracy of updating electoral registers. That would have been vexatious, though these things are always worth a shot, which at least puts the issue on the agenda for the future, a legitimate ploy in a democracy. I also note that this is an issue that has been pushed more by the SNP than by other parties, though there is wide cross-party support for it.
To me, voting rights for EU citizens is an injustice issue that needs urgent fixing. It won't be fixed, of course, while we have a bunch of eurosceptics running the show. We'll remember that next time we hear Tories burbling on about their concept of "democracy."
"I don't agree with giving 16/17 year olds the vote. Some of them are level-headed, but have little experience of life. They will still be guided by their teachers."
Well now, let's take a little look at this. Nigel, a Tory, doesn't want 16-year-olds to vote and gives us a vacuous reason as to why not. The real reason that Tories like Nigel don't want 16-year-olds to vote is that they know that 16-year-olds on the whole are very unlikely to vote Tory (what's more, they're far more likely to be remainers). Not only that, but they'd vote in droves because of the sheer novelty of just having been accorded the privilege. Dig into any Tory's expressed viewpoint and you will find self-interest at the core of it. Nigel feels uneasy that 16-year-olds will be under the influence of teachers. Presumably, Nigel thinks that teachers, on the whole, are a scruffy bunch of rabid leftie revolutionaries. So he doesn't trust their influence. Yet he has nothing to say about the influence on voters of the gutter mass media, four-fifths of whom are virulently anti-Corbyn, who routinely reproduce Boris's lies and who routinely mangle news and right-wing sentiment together to propagandise. Well I ask you, who do trust more to have useful and honest influence, the Sun/Daily Mail (try Richard Littlejohn some time), or a body of qualified, professional, carefully-selected teachers who are subjected to constant appraisal?
There's definitely a debate to be had about what the voting age should be. Personally, I'm in favour of lowering it, but I sort of agreed that trying to bring it in yesterday would have appeared to be vexatious. What I vehemently disagree with is that EU citizens who live, work and pay taxes here shouldn't be allowed the vote. That's an outrageous injustice in m'humble and I would have liked to see that one discussed. Had it been a successful amendment it would have severely delayed the election, but in my view that would have been justified. Again, of course, one expects that most of the 3.4 million would not be Tory voters...
since all the most experienced election analysts ar ed saying this is the most unpredictable election ever, I am not foolhardy enough to give a detailed prediction. But at a broad level Johnson will do well if he can keep the focus on Brexit and fight off both Farage and the consequences of all the hostages to fortune quotes he, Patel and Raab have made in the last few years. The other parties will not forget about the WAB either and could pull some tricky stuff out of that. But, as I say, keep it on Brexit and avoid the detail and Johnson will do well.
Get onto all the other things in life and the problems for them become apparent. The simplest rejoinder to all the wonderful things promises in the Queen's speech for Labour heartlands is "When did you ever know the Tories to do any of that?"
So Corbyn and his fellow turkeys have finally voted for christmas.
This will go down in history as the great cull. Will Labour be both roasted and basted? They obviously do not require the provision of a rotisserie - they are well used to spinning!
All we need now is the Lords to attempt to frustrate the election by attaching further amendments. Boris will have a busy time ahead!
If I had my way I would:
increase the voting age to 25
Ban postal votes to all but the infirm, service personnel and students.
Students voting in university towns skew the vote.
I would insist they vote only in their home constituency.
I would also insist that those wishing to vote provide ID to be checked against the electoral roll before being allowed to. participate
Provision of foreign observers to ensure no voting irregularities.
Has anyone informed Putin so he can arrange interference?
Another bit of superb news is that 47 of the swamp rats are standing down including the squeaker.
No "deal" has gone through, Stanron. Johnson pulled the further debate on it before it was approved and with the election all incomplete bills fall.
" how did they live?""

Living in the past seems to be a Thing with the Brexit-Bunch.
Since the 16/17 amendment has not been considered, this is a little academic. But of course there are degrees of adulthood - just look at the age of consent compared to the age where you can get a provisional licence to getting a full licence. Almost every society recognises there is a gradual transition to become a fully developed adult. The exceptions are those where there is some ceremony, often religious in nature, which define crossing from one stage to another.
As for only voting if you pay taxes, I can't think this is a fully developed idea, Nigel. Maybe a gut feel, but let's just take one real life example. My wife is too young to claim state pension, and has not drawn her pension from work, but retired some three years ago. Sounds like you would rule she has no vote. Then let's try a thought experiment. Two people on zero hour contracts earning very little. Jack is under the tax threshold, so no tax, but Jill paid £1 over the entire year, so you are happy for Jill to vote but not Jack? Or do you want to set a threshold - so you have to be rich enough to vote?
And then why not more votes if you pay more taxes? After all, the logic seems to be those who contribute taxes are the only ones with a vote, so more votes for more taxes just takes that a step further.
Sounds like you want to get back before the Great Reform Acts in some ways.
"but have little experience of life. They will still be guided by their teachers."
You mean the teachers can't be trusted ?

How do you find a good cleaner (if you don't happen to live in Moses Lake or the Tri-Cities, WA! )? Well, first of all, I'm not going to bore you based on a methods of cleaning that the pros use. I personally use a truck-mounted hot water extraction system (steam cleaning) that I love. I have hundreds of clients that like it. There's also a shampooing method which some cleaners still use. Bonnet cleaning, which uses low moisture, is common which is sometimes called dry cleanup up. What I have observed is the fact there are operators using these methods with very pleased clients, and other operators using these same methods that obtain lots of complaints and have trouble. The equipment used is only a portion of the equation; the different and perhaps bigger part certainly is the person operating the equipment. So that didn't answer your concern, did it?

Wharton Stories » What I Learned About Small Nonprofits from an NGO in Costa Rica
What I Learned About Small Nonprofits from an NGO in Costa Rica
Turner Social Impact Society member Stephanie Wu, W'20, consulted for Asociacion CREAR, an educational nonprofit in Costa Rica. Working on the ground in Costa Rica, she learned four important lessons about small nonprofits.
Sámara is a beautiful town in rural Costa Rica where everybody seems to know everybody and the beach is only a few minutes away. But the idyllic waves that attract the tourists belie the poverty and unemployment within the community.
Along with the Penn International Impact Consulting team, I had been working remotely with Asociacion CREAR (an educational nonprofit) for eight months. We helped them develop a local business outreach strategy and improve the efficiency and profitability of their volunteer program. But it wasn't until we landed on-site and had face-to-face interviews with their staff, board, students, and parents, that we could truly understand the internal and external challenges of running the organization.
Stephanie, third from the left, with the Penn International Impact Consulting team and the Asociacion CREAR team in Costa Rica.
Here are four lessons I learned about small nonprofits through this experience:
1. It takes resilience to run a small nonprofit.
After hearing CREAR's executive director Andrea Keith share her story, I felt tremendous respect for her resilience. She kept the organization working despite a multitude of challenges: seeking funding within a community which is itself far from wealthy; attaining buy-in from a community less familiar with the role of nonprofits; retaining staff members who may not be able to live on a nonprofit salary long-term. In a way, it reminded me of the struggle that early-stage entrepreneurs might face, but without the Silicon Valley glamour.
2. It's a battle between chicken and egg.
When you have limited people, effort, time, and energy, you have to pick your battles. So the question of whether to focus on funding or impact becomes one of chicken or egg. More funding will lead to higher quality and quantity of programs, and more programs and success stories will draw in higher funding. It can seem impossible to know which side to focus on first, but even more impossible to do both simultaneously.
3. People are often (wrongly) drawn to big organizations.
In our society, we equate big organizations with success and want to donate to or work for them. We know about their mission, trust them to use our dollars effectively, and believe that we will gain better skills as their employees. But often the most impactful organizations are those which are serving the most remote communities. These organizations typically have the least funding (as they are not surrounded by wealthier donors), least visibility (as they have slim to no marketing budgets), and least brand-recognition on a resume. But these smaller organizations are the ones likely to provide intensely immersive training.
4. Business skills are crucial for nonprofit management.
I expected my business classes to be useful in some capacity, but I did not know they would have such a direct application. At the end of the day, nonprofits face the same issues as for-profit businesses, such as motivating and retaining staff, marketing their services, planning financial investments, and coordinating operations. The marketing strategies, financial modeling, and management theories that I learned from Wharton were crucial when writing a business plan for CREAR.
I am incredibly thankful for CREAR's openness about their struggles and successes, and for the opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of the day-to-day realities of a small NGO making a big impact.

The Uranus Pluto square was exact in the Skywatch on Mar 16. This is the last of seven exact squares between these two planets that began in the Spring of 2012. This square has been a catalyst for enormous change worldwide starting with the Arab Spring. Freedom from oppression, the revelation of hidden truths and make or break situations coming to a head have all been major themes.
Generous Jupiter lines up in a welcome trine to Uranus on Mar 3. These two will dance together in the heavens for the next few months and make one more exact trine in June. This positive aspect shows up in the heavens once every 6-7 years and signals a very good time in our lives to make changes and to awaken and explore new talents and interests. Use this Uranian energy well by experimenting and checking out new classes, places, sites and situations in March and ahead.
For more on how these transits might be effecting you in particular, call Ondina for an astrology reading (415) 381-1065!
Ondina assists traditional, alternative and queer couples with an approach that combines the latest discoveries in neuroscience with powerful and effective developments in couples research. She uses an approach called Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help her couples get past blame and shame to a place of more understanding, trust and intimacy.
As former Director of the Eating Disorders program at the Community Institute of Psychotherapy Ondina advocates a Health at Every Size (HAES) approach that empowers women to befriend their bodies.
Ondina works with trauma/ abuse survivors using EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing,) hypnosis and somatic (body mindfulness) psychotherapy techniques with a high effectiveness rating.
Finally as a somatically trained psychotherapist and former yoga teacher, one of the ways she can assist you to make lasting changes is to foster body mindfulness. She uses somatic psychotherapies such as Hakomi and Somatic Experiencing to facilitate transitions and shifts that last.

Survive on the planet Earth long enough to become a form of perpetual life.
Concerning the mass of the planet and the only known way for masses to accumulate more mass from the Sun, the process of life is a gravitational phenomenon about accumulating energy to contribute to the mass of the planet that is formed. The changing mass of the planet in relation to the ages of life duration in geologic time spans, suggests an order that when the planet reaches a critical mass life that survives enters another mass level such as insects, or possible before that the first ceullular life. Thinking in this way it is funny to see dinosaurs as frozen inside the process of gravitation and ourselves possibly on the verge of the mass transition into another form of life only observable by the massive giants that will roam in a completely new epoch of gravitational power, seeming relatively perpetual given the power demands of the more massive new epoch.

Sunlight doesn't make stuff heavier. The plants take in water and dirt and use the sunlight energy to rearrange the stuff into more plant. The weight doesn't change.
Energy only turns into weight when there's a nuclear reaction. Cells don't do that.

Sunlight doesn't make things heavier.
Quite so, it's those pesky gravitons.
"I'd have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for you pesky gravitons ! "
No ... doesn't work, somehow. Not sure why.
//The plants take in water and dirt and use the sunlight energy to rearrange the stuff into more plant.//
My understanding of the process is that sunlight powers photosynthesis which the plant uses to build itself out of thin air. It takes in water, and minerals from the soil, but the weight is mostly carbon. Is this understanding incorrect?
— 2 fries shy of a happy meal, Nov 22 2015
Its really just a funny kind of idea. It's easy to imagine the Earth accumulating energy from the Sun and I have trouble imagining the Earth not gaining anything from so much energy being captured by life. Obviously no new atoms are created but energy from the sun can be stored in molecules when they are formed, and I have trouble thinking that these molecules do not eventually increase the mass of the planet. They say there is an obesity epidemic in America, but I think that's people working towards perpetual souls. Call it a kind of naive optimism.
//Is this understanding incorrect?// yes
//and I have trouble thinking that these molecules do not eventually increase the mass of the planet//
Agreed - you have trouble thinking.
Good, then democratically I'm on the winning team.So fossil fuels like petroleum form a more energetic molecule out of the atoms available on Earth. Will not that energy eventually condense for a net gain?
enthalpy ? not mass, per se.

// There are undiscovered and unknowable about particle waves called Falsitrons

//My understanding of the process is that sunlight powers photosynthesis which the plant uses to build itself out of thin air. It takes in water, and minerals from the soil, but the weight is mostly carbon. Is this understanding incorrect?//
I would say that's a pretty good understanding - but it's wrong on a minor detail - the DRY weight (i.e. everything but the water) is mostly carbon (by weight). Plants are typically 80-90% water (apparently - I just looked that up).
//Energy only turns into weight when there's a nuclear reaction.//
Not _strictly_ true. There's a tiny, tiny change in mass during chemical reactions. It's so very small as to be negligable for most purposes because a huge amount of energy equates to a tiny mass, but it nevertheless does occur.
— Loris, Nov 23 2015
So according to the idea, the Mormons were right in that eventually we'll all rule our own universes as supermassive black holes of moron particles? Does this explain the appeal of Donald Trump to religious conservatives?
— RayfordSteele, Nov 23 2015
The idea is just a naive way of thinking that to some may seem correct, but on further investigation will be revealed to be erroneous. Ok some people HATE naive, but that's the way people think even if they study the physics that proves this is incorrect. Even the most skeptical scientist will die with hope that it will not be his or her final end. Calling the idea perpetual souls sort of hints at the hopefulness inside of the reasoning. People arn't meant to be scientists, and even though science guarantees our landfills will be full of throw-away crap, the naive imagination will still be able turn that condition into an unjustifiable belief that we will not be eventually destroyed.
But now that I have been I'm more likely to occur than ever before.

Sunlight turns into gravitational potential energy because an upright human body has more potential energy than some soupy cells. Take the total mass of all life that's ever existed on Earth and multiply by its average height times g.
— the porpoise, Nov 24 2015
That's possible too, however your communications might be understandable but not true or correct. They are understandable in the sense that they appeal to an attitude and sentiment of society towards the initiative of individuals and how they should see themselves in the society that understands what you said. But true would require a higher level of proof regarding the force of nature on creation compared to our own wills, and it's likely society understands the force of will better than a comfortable acceptance that the world exists, meaning I exist, without any effort at all. And correct wold be a similar process of first being able to prove what may or not be understandable as true and then having someone else agree. I think you're saying something understandable, but that the truth of nature is not necessary a practical doctrine for living in society, so in a certain type of communicative interaction will not seem sufficiently correct. Although if there was one to make an argument that existence a force beyond the power of our wills he would also not be in a motivational relation between himself and another person to be necessarily correct.
Anyway what does it matter, my next idea is rocking horse bum wiper.
May I be excused? I need to go change the mumbo-jumbo / philosophy filter I recently installed; it's full again.
You should install a self-flushing one, it's so much more convenient.
Planets don't gain mass from EM radiation from the Sun, because they emit about the same amount. Earth gains an estimated 1.75 kg of space dust per second, which will only increase its mass by a tiny fraction (about 0.000004%) in the next 4.5 billion years, which is when it's expected the Sun will become a red giant and destroy it.
It's kinda interesting that it you assume something on Earth was absorbing all the sunlight that hit it (about 1.74e17 W) and converting it to mass, it would gaining about 1.9 kg/s – about what it gains from space dust.
I'm not gonna go anywhere near the stuff about insects, dinosaurs, massive roaming giants of souls, other than to say it's of the stuff that makes the internet so weirdly wonderful.
— CraigD, Dec 02 2015
/there is an obesity epidemic in America, but I think that's people working towards perpetual souls/
Yes! Thank you! That is exactly what I am trying to do! And my likelihood of occurring is so freaking high.
— bungston, Dec 02 2015
Likelihood of occurring? How does that work? Why will your consciousness manifest in one of your successful sperm donations? Which offspring is your perpetual soul? I don't think that was necessarily implied by the paragraph posted. Perpetual didn't mean eternal soul, but perpetul in terms of a physics definition. So a kind of materialist idea some would say. In terms of likelyhood for reoccurance I would say even given many offspring, returning to perception after death would not necessarily require close relations given the population of the Earth has grown from a small number. To say that your consciousness relies on your sperm donations could be compared to a retroactive argument that your consciousness was created without any designs of your own.
— guncandy, Dec 02 2015
[Loris] is correct, although it took me a long time to understand this bit. By general relativity, all energy is mass. If you throw a ball, it gets a little more massive due to the kinetic energy. If you heat up an chunk of metal, it gets a little more massive from the thermal energy. The change is so small that it's very difficult to measure unless you start talking about something on the scale of a nuclear or matter/antimatter reaction, but it's there.
So yes, when a plant photosynthesizes, it does add mass. But when it decays, it loses it again. Some carbon compounds end up sequestered as peat, oil, coal, and the like, and those do add a tiny fraction of mass to the planet. Of course mining and burning all of the above removes it again.
That being said, the total change due to plants is infinitesimal (and negligible) compared to the infalling mass from asteroids and such. (About 40k tonnes/year).
In fact, the greatest energy (and thus mass) addition due to the sun is not from a biological phenomenon, it's from the greenhouse effect (about 160 tonnes/year).
On the other hand, nuclear reactions in the core lose about 16 tonnes/year, and about 96k tonnes of hydrogen and 1.6k tonnes of helium escape off the top of the atmosphere.
So overall, the earth is getting lighter, not heavier, and the effects of life on that process are negligible.
— MechE, Dec 02 2015
To clarify the retroactive argument it should be noted that someone else's effort a parent etc. leads to an individual's creation. But in the sense that parents can't see through the eyes of their children nor grandparents or great grandparents, even if they temporarily die gives some indication that people do not live on through offspring. Afterall if your consciousness was to reappear it would be in closer generations not further. So the retroactive argument holds that each individual exerted no effort themselves to exist, even though a grat deal of effort may be required to survive and reproduce. But more importantly everyone that exists is a possibility of physics. So after death the possibility of existence still remains even if everyone is completely destroyed due to the fact that your existence has been proven to be possible. It even seems plausible that the retroactive argument is better if something happens that causes all time and energy to be recompressed perhaps into a black hole and when when it is all released again people are reborn to wage unrelenting wars against eachothers masses with our simple lever- pendulum bodies, and butt and mouth holes.
Why, if your thesis is metaphysical and has no basis in observation of the natural world why try to use scienceish words and concepts you do not grasp to support it? And then rebuffed make the same attempt using philosophical concepts that do not apply any better. Please stop now before you abuse mathematics or some other loved human pursuit. People spent lifetimes working these things out in intellectual bondage that largely goes without recognition or accolade. When you vomit out random science nonsense you are disgracing yourself in the face of the efforts of people living and dead who devoted themselves to a useful understanding of the universe.

Heart-Rate
New Year's Reminder: Be Kind to "Resolutioners"
author : alicefoeller
Why being a jerk to triathlon newbies is ultimately counterproductive
Updated December 2019
It's time for our annual reminder to all of our triathlon veterans that at one time, they walked into the gym filled with determination ... and had absolutely no idea where anything was and no idea about the courtesies of sharing a lap lane or hogging the weight equipment.
Those of us who have been around the block a few times know that most of the people who turn up at the gym January 1 will have disappeared by February 1. Meanwhile, they are standing in all the wrong places, swimming in the middle of the lane oblivious to you waiting at the side, and getting in the way of our normal routine.
This is a gentle reminder from BeginnerTriathlete that our goal is to have all of the January 1 "resolutioners" still exercising on February 1, moving around with confidence, and getting more fit. The people around them are a big part of that. Studies show that social connections is a greater predictor of success than most other factors when taking up a fitness routine. That is, people will sign up for health reasons, but they will come back because they made a friend they know will be waiting for them at spin class.
With that in mind, please be kind.
Of course it's annoying when people are in the way, or taking a long time to figure out how to use things.
But when we complain about them, stare disdainfully as we push past at the gym, or harp on the problem here on the BT forums, it makes people feel unwelcome and more likely to go back to their previous unhealthy lifestyle.
The same goes for our forums. Before I was fortunate enough to purchase BeginnerTriathlete from its founder, I used a different forum. Until I took a break from triathlon, came back and posted a question, and was flamed for asking something dumb. That's how I first found BeginnerTriathlete. If you're mean, people will leave.
And so we implore you to remember the last time you were trying something new and a lot of people around you were competent and familiar, while you were unsure and embarrassed. Hold that thought in your mind during January.
I remember being a fairly good runner and competent at riding a bike when I began my triathlon journey. But I had joined a Masters swim group at the YMCA, and I was NOT good at swimming. I was surrounded by people who could do kick drills faster than I could swim; People who made everything look effortless while I was thrashing desperately at the water. I realized during that time that when we are kids, we are always having to try things that are unfamiliar, and we are frequently not as good at some things compared to the people around us. But as we get older and have control over the course of our lives, we tend to spend our time in areas of skill and competence. We likely don't have a job at which we are terrible at the core skills. We likely don't have hobbies that are a constant struggle. And so we forget what it's like to be a beginner - to struggle and be terrible at something at first. To feel like everyone is staring at us.
So, when someone asks a question that seems to have a quite obvious answer;
or when a person at the gym appears to be looking around for help as they attempt to adjust a machine;
or when someone doesn't understand circle swimming and crashes into your head;
... remember how much better the world will be for that person, their kids and everyone they touch if they feel empowered to stick it out in their new fitness routine. Be the person who gives them a hand instead of the person who gives them a glare.

Last year, we were plunged into a sorority of hat lovers and solemnly pledged to incorporate them –as conspicuous as they come– into our wardrobes and style. Now, if you've ever asked a hat wearer in Lagos, "Where did you get that?", the answer would most likely be 1) Somewhere halfway across the world. or 2) Asos.
Then, we find out about Simon and Mary, this really cool hat brand based here in Africa and we're wondering why they hadn't popped up before. Anyway, we'll just throw these perfectly made, gorgeous, bright hued hats at you and hope you get just as enchanted.
Simon and Mary is a family-run hat company in Johannesburg that uses traditional millinery machines from the 1960's to create a variety of carefully crafted hats that draw inspiration from styles of yesteryear. It's a heritage brand established in 1935 with roots first planted in South Africa when Simon's father, Mordechai Pozniak fled from Poland to South Africa, taking along his cap factory. A business that has grown into the largest felt hat manufacturer in Africa boasts a background of over 70 years experience in headwear, passed down the family line through four generations.
Simon and Mary was started as a tribute to my grandparents, built on their history of the finest millinery traditions, family values, craftmanship and creating opportunities that contribute to society.
Born through generations to tell the story of what a simple hat can bring, the brand is inspired by the styles created by Simon in the past and aims to constantly reinvent the hat for the modern hat lover.
Continuing the legacy created by the original milliner, Simon's grandson Dean, named the brand after his grandfather and grandmother Leah. She was affectionately nicknamed Mary after the main female character in War & Peace, based on a family bond within the hat factory.
Hats are in our blood, it is more than a clothing item, but rather a way of life.
So what's it going to be… these hats or disaster?


The 2016 Wall Of Fame Award recipients were Monroe Fabian, Carl Manone and Stanley (Bud) Prosser. The Awards Ceremony was held on November 16, 2016, in the high school auditorium. The presentation was well attended and very successful. Student Council students assisted with welcoming guests, the 4th Grade Chorus performed, and the high school Chamber Choir performed. The school provided refreshments prior to the ceremony and lunch following the ceremony for all attendees.

Slice thinly zucchini, summer squash, onion and pepper and layer into a baking dish. Mix together Sour Cream and Cream of Chicken Soup and mix thoroughly, Combine vegetables and cream mixture until evenly mixed. Bake at 350 degrees until squash is tender.
For future reference I will include the weeks recipe an email until further notice. Sorry for any inconvenience that this causes.
Will kill anything you spray it on. Mix and spray in the morning after the dew has evaporated off of the weeds and the weeds will be gone by suppertime.
Place one inch of water in a large saucepan; add carrots. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10-12 minutes or until tender. Drain and set aside.
In the same pan, combine the cranberry sauce, butter, brown sugar, lemon juice and salt. Cook and stir until cranberry sauce is melted and mixtureis smooth. Add carrots; stir to coat and heat through.
Mix together and store in an airtight container in a cool place.
This will remain solid if stored at room temperature. It will melt at anything over 75 degrees.
Heat the butter in a 6-quart saucepot over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until they're tender. Add the broth and squash to the saucepot and heat to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and cook for 30 minutes or until the squash is very tender.
Pour half of the squash mixture into a blender or food processor. Cover and blend until smooth. Repeat with the remaining squash mixture. Return the blended squash mixture to the saucepot and stir in the cream. Season the squash mixture to taste. Cover and keep warm.
Cook the bacon in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat for 5 minutes or until it's crisp. Remove the bacon from the skillet and drain it on paper towels. When it's cool, crumble the bacon into bite-size pieces.
Divide the squash mixture evenly among 6 serving bowls. Divide the crumbled bacon evenly among the bowls.

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add shallots, garlic, and tarragon; sauté until onion is just tender, about 2 minutes. Add yellow squash and zucchini; sauté until crisp-tender, about 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Mix ingredient together and bake at 350° until toothpick in middle comes out clean.
You can top with cream cheese icing to make it more interesting.
1. Place zucchini and lemon juice in a large saucepan. Cover and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until zucchini is tender, about 15 minutes. Add nutmeg, sugar and cinnamon; blend until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat. Pour into a greased 13" x 9" baking pan.
2. For topping combine brown sugar, flour, oats, and butter until crumbly. Sprinkle over zucchini. Bake at 375° for 50 minutes or until topping is golden brown. Serve warm with whipped cream or ice cream if desired. Yields 12-16 servings.

JDA Software (59.19%) and Manhattan Associates (32.93%) continue to ride the CPG, retail, and supply chain investment wave. Manhattan solidified a significant turnaround in 2 quarters of growth.
Large mega vendor bellwethers Oracle (12.95%) and SAP (12.34%) showed significant double digit growth. SAP's license gains of 17.31% demonstrate a turnaround in the sales team. All indications point to BOBJ and the non-EMEA regions driving sales growth.
The SMB vendors shared mixed results with Epicor (8.68%), Lawson (5.81%), and CDC Software (3.92%) continuing to grow key license revenues. While IFS total revenue gains were low in the 1.40%, IFS grew license revenue by a whopping 19.77%.
Unfortunately, other SMB vendors Exact (-4.99%) and Deltek (-7.07%) showed negative revenue momentum. These vendors not only lost ground in license revenue but also saw declines in traditionally stable maintenance revenue.
Maintenance fee growth remains healthy for most vendors as new programs to show value to customers gain traction.
SaaS vendors continue to grow in mid to high double digit growth rates for subscription revenue. SuccessFactors (26.81%), Salesforce.com (24.78%), and Concur (20.49%) moved past 20% year over year quarterly growth.
Ariba ($93.2M) nears the $100M per quarter revenue benchmark as Blackboard ($101.5M) continues to grow from this achievement in Q1 2010.
RightNow (19.58%), NetSuite (16.83%), Ultimate Software (15.67%), and Taleo (14.63%) all showed solid quarters of growth, though these growth percentages show slight declines.
Despite the rocky recovery and potential for double digit recession, pent up demand drives the current on-premises vendor revenue growth. Organizations continue to invest in technology despite the lack of job creation. However, on-premises vendor gains have not impacted SaaS vendor growth. In fact, most organizations continue to adopt Scenarios 1 to 3 in their Cloud/SaaS strategies. As hybrid models reach tipping points, successful apps strategies must focus on SaaS integration, SOA adoption, and information governance.

DRIVER UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF ALCOHOL CONVICTED OF HIT-AND-RUN DEATH OF PEDESTRIAN
Case # 10HF0004
August 13, 2010 Susan Kang Schroeder
SANTA ANA – A driver under the influence of alcohol was convicted today for hitting a pedestrian and fleeing the scene, which resulted in the victim's death one week later. Shana Lynne Calderon, 21, Newport Beach, pleaded guilty to the court to one felony count of hit and run causing death, one misdemeanor count each of driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs, driving with a blood alcohol level of .08 or more, possession of controlled substance paraphernalia, and driving without a valid license. Calderon faces a maximum sentence of four years in state prison at her sentencing Oct. 15, 2010, at 9:00 a.m. in Department C-57, Central Court, Santa Ana.
At approximately 1:30 a.m. on Dec. 12, 2009, Calderon was driving in her white 1995 Ford Explorer southbound on the California State Route 55 as it turned into Newport Boulevard in Costa Mesa. The victim, 29-year-old Michael McLaughlin, stepped into the street as Calderon moved into the right hand turn lane and hit the victim at the intersection of Newport Boulevard and 19th Street. The defendant struck the victim causing him to hit the windshield and fly into the street. Calderon parked her vehicle nearby, walked to the scene, and spoke to a witness at the scene. Calderon and her passenger then fled the scene. The victim was transported to Western Medical Center in Santa Ana, where he died a week later due to blunt force trauma caused by the crash.
Approximately two hours later, Calderon turned herself in to the Costa Mesa Police Department. Calderon displayed objective signs of intoxication including bloodshot and watery eyes, flushed face, slurred speech, and a strong odor of alcohol on her breath. At the time of her arrest she was in possession of two hollowed-out pen containers used to ingest prescription drugs. At the time of the crash, Calderon was driving without a valid driver's license.
Deputy District Attorney Jason Baez of the Homicide Unit is prosecuting this case.
