New app helps guide Hampton Beach visitors to parking
App gives information on events, lodging
Jennifer Crompton
WEBVTT CONTINUOUSLY. THE IDEA IS TO GET PEOPLE OUT OF THE TRAFFIC AND ONTO THE BEACH. THE CROWDS ARE ARRIVING AT HAMPTON BEACH, AND FINDING A SANDY SPOT CLOSE TO THE WATER, CAN BE ALMOST AS CHALLENGING AS FINDING A PARKING SPOT. ARRIVING AFTER MID-MORNING, CAN MEAN CIRCLING ASHWORTH AVE AND OCEAN BOULEVARD. WE ASKED A YOUNG VISITOR WHAT KIND OF APP COULD HELP. CAMPBELL: ONE THAT COULD SHOW YOU WHICH PARKING LOTS ARE FULL AND WHICH ONES ARE NOT, SO I AM NOT DRIVING AROUND FOREVER. JENNIFER: LO AND BEHOLD, JUST IN TIME FOR SUMMER CROWDS, IS HAMPTON BEACH PARK AND PLAY, A NEW MOBILE APP WITH UP TO THE MINUTE INFORMATION ABOUT PRICES, AVAILABILITY, AND DIRECTIONS TO ELEVEN DIFFERENT BEACH PARKING LOTS. IF THINGS CHANGE WITHIN THIS LOT, A TEXT WILL GO TO A PERSON WHO IS MANAGING THE APP TO MAKE THE CHANGES. JENNIFER: THE HAMPTON AREA CHAMBER AND THE BEACH VILLAGE DISTRICT HAVE PARTNERED TO G VISITORS' INFO BEFORE THEY ARRIVE, INCLUDING ABOUT EVENTS, ATTRACTIONS, AND PLACES TO EAT AND STAY CHUCK: AS THEY ARE COMING THROUGH, THEY CAN CHECK FOR OR FIVE HOTELS, SO IT DIRECTS THEM RIGHT TO US. JENNIFER: THE AIM IS TO GET PEOPLE OUT OF THEIR VEHICLES, ONTO THE BEACH AND HAVING FUN AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE. AMES: I WOULD LOVE THAT APP. RIGHT, MARY? YOU WOULD HAVE LOV THAT APP TODAY. WE CAME DOWN THERE AND ENDED UP THERE. JENNIFER: THE APP IS LIVE NOW BUT OFFICIALLY ROLLS OUT WITH ON MONDAY WITH CONTINUOUSLY UPDATED INFORMATION. AND THERE WILL ALSO BE AN APP ROLLING OUT FOR THE SEAFOOD FESTIVAL
A new app to help find parking spots is rolling out at Hampton Beach, just in time for the biggest crowds of the year.The Park and Play app is intended to help guide visitors to available parking spots in 11 lots. It also has information about events, food, lodging and beach conditions. "If things change within this lot, a text will go to the person managing the app to make the changes," said John Nyhan of the Hampton Area Chamber of Commerce. The Chamber of Commerce and the Beach Village District partnered to develop the app to help visitors get useful information before they arrive. "As they're in traffic or as they're coming through, they can check four or five different motels to see where they want to stay," said Chuck Rage, owner of Pelham Motels. "It directs them right to us." Officials said the aim is to get people out of their vehicles, onto the beach and having fun as quickly as possible. "I would love the app, yes," said Ames Forish, a visitor from Charlestown, Massachusetts. "I came in down there today, and I was, like, 'I don't even know how we ended up there.'" The app is available now, but it officially rolls out with updated information starting on Monday. Another app will roll out for the Hampton Beach Seafood Festival in September, officials said.

Filicudi je jedan od 8 talijanskih otoka u Tirenskom moru koji čine Liparske otoke, niz vulkanskih otoka sjeverno od Sicilije. Otok je administrativna podjedinica općine Lipari.

Zemljopis
Otok pokriva površinu od 9.5 km2. na otoku su 2 manja naselja: Pecorini Mare i Valdichiesa. Tlo na otoku je pogodno za uzgoj vina, maslinovog ulja, pšenice i povrća. Oko 3/4 otoka (oko 7 km2) je 1997. proglašeno rezervatom prirode.

Najviši vrh na otoku je Monte Fossa Felci (774 m), a drugi veći vrhovi su Monte Montagnola (349 m)i Monte Terrione (278 m). Na lokalitetu Capo Graziano se nalaze ostaci vile iz brončanog doba, iz 2. tisućljeća pr. Kr. Uz obalu je vulkanska stijena u obliku stupa,  La Canna, koja se izdiže 74 metra iznad mora.

Povijest

Suvremeno ime otoka, "Filicudi", nastalo je iskrivljenjem antičkog grčkog imena otoka - Phoenicusa (Fenički otok). Otok je, kao i ostali Liparski otoci, naseljen još u neolitiku, oko 3000 godina pr. Kr. Arheološki pronalasci pokazuju da je otok tijekom brončanog doba dobio nove stanovnike. Prije dolaska Starih Grka, otok je stoljećima bio napušten. Osim grčkih, na otoku se mogu naći i ostaci iz vremena vladavine Rima i Bizanta.

Popis stanovništva iz 1971. donosi podatak o 270 stanovnika. Otprilike jedna trećina njih je 25. svibnja iste godine napustilo otok kad je talijanska policija odlučila na Filicudiju smjestiti 18 poznatih vođa talijanske mafije koji su čekali suđenje pod optužbama za organizirani kriminal. Do 31. svibnja i ostali stanovnici su napustili otok u znak protesta, a na otoku su ostali samo optuženi kriminalci i policija koja ih je čuvala.

Od 1970-ih, otok je postao popularno odredište za fotografe i umjetnike kao što su Sergio Libiszewsky, Ettore Sottsass, pisac Roland Zoss, i urednik Giulio Einaudi. Njihovi su radovi popularizirali otok i učinili ga popularnom turističkim odredištem.

In one telling segment, Null takes the man-in-the-street interview a step further by taking the typical American shopping at the local grocer and filling his basket with foods specifically chosen to address and revitalize his personal health profile.
Additionally, Gary explores other health and wellness lifestyle choices, such as exercise, the loving presence of pets in our life, and the importance of meditation, relaxation, and laughter, as determining factors in our abilities to manage stress and stay healthy.

Operation: Finals week relaxation
Katie Sones
Take a look at the Arts & Entertainment section's ways to relax during and after finals week. Credit: Jackson Tovar/The Foothill Dragon Press
Need to take your mind off that math final, or recover from one you just took? Reward yourself with some entertainment! The Foothill Dragon Press's Arts and Entertainment section has compiled their favorite ways to relax during and after a hectic finals week.
1. "Will Grayson, Will Grayson" by David Levithan and John Green.
"Will Grayson, Will Grayson" is a novel about two very different high school teens, both named Will Grayson. Each boy is different in very obvious ways. One is an insecure student struggling with his sexual identity, and the other is a silent boy who goes through life quietly and mostly unnoticed. On the day they meet, both of their lives change in simple, but dramatic ways. "Will Grayson, Will Grayson" will make you laugh, cry, and be glad to live on a planet like ours.
2. "The Giver" series by Lois Lowry
"The Giver" series is a quartet of four books ("The Giver," "Gathering Blue," "The Messenger," and "Son"), each set in a dystopian society. Each book is relatively short, but phenomenal. Since it is a series, and not all the books link together besides having the same society, it is hard to give a summary in brevity. However, The Giver series is a quick, enjoyable, and memorable series to enjoy in your weekend of recovery.
3. "The Truth About Forever" by Sarah Dessen
Most girls have read (or at least heard of) Dessen's novels. Though a few of her books follow the same plot and have the same types of characters, "The Truth About Forever" breaks that standard and is the perfect brain candy book for all romance readers. Macy is a high school student, still recovering from the abrupt death of her father many years ago. Her whole life changed on that day, and she struggles with it constantly, but when she starts working with a catering company and meets comical characters like Kristy and Wes, her life starts to change. In typical Dessen fashion, there is love, heartbreak, revelations, and happy endings in this guilty pleasure book.
Video Games:
1. "FIFA 13"
"FIFA 13," a soccer video game, is a great relaxing game, unless you are super competitive. This game is more than a normal soccer game; you can create your own player, practice by dribbling and shooting the ball in the arena and playing skill games, trade players as if they were trading cards in Ultimate Team, or challenge your friends to matches from anywhere in the world. Even if soccer is not your thing, the game is still a blast! What better way to relax is there than kicking a ball around with your friends but exerting no energy whatsoever? You can play this game on Xbox 360, Playstation 3, Wii, PSP, PC and Nintendo DS
2. "Viva Piñata"
Taking care of a garden is very relaxing in real life, but when you don't have to use any energy when tending to the animals and plants — the premise of "Viva Piñata" — it only adds to the relaxation factor. In "Viva Piñata" you plant seeds in an attempt to lure piñata animals into your garden. Once an animal performs certain tasks such as eating berries or a different, smaller piñata in becomes native to your garden. When a piñata becomes native, it cannot leave your garden. The better you get at tending to your garden, the more creative and prestigious animals will appear. It is very easy to become immersed in this game, which will help take your mind off the stress of finals week. You can play this game on Xbox 360 and PC.
1. "Driftwood" by Rena Jones
Get your zen on with Rena Jones' "Driftwood" and relax. You can pull up a nice cup of tea and begin your breathing exercises and you will be completely chilled out in no time. This album has smooth, almost sleek sounds. This is gentle but passionate music. The song "Seedling" brings in a soft and almost retro-sounding background, while exploring a variety of unique sounds. The "must hear" song is gentle and sensual "Open Me Slowly," which makes you feel like you are opening something slowly as the song keeps on getting progressively better and better.
2. "Get Behind Me Satan" by The White Stripes
Don't feel like relaxing? Want to break things instead and sing at the top of your lungs? Release that steam with The White Stripe's "Get Behind Me Satan." This album contains all the heavy drums and crazy electric guitar notes you need, and it also brings in some great piano, as well as Jack White's entrancing voice that will definitely have you singing along. My favorite track on this album is "The Denial Twist, " which brings together the best elements of The White Stripes: heavy piano notes and a great array of instruments. If you want something faster paced that will get you jumping around, listen to "Blue Orchid." This song can be described as pure electric guitar awesomeness. It had me playing air guitar and singing, and I am sure it will have the same effect on you.
1. "Portlandia"
Nothing helps me take my mind off finals more than laughing, something guaranteed to happen while watching "Portlandia." Starring creators and long-time friends Carrie Brownstein and Fred Armisen, "Portlandia" is a sketch comedy show set in Portland, Oregon that parodies hipsters living in the city.
The sketches all star Brownstein and Armisen, and sometimes their comedy friends make cameos. One of the funniest and most popular sketches is "Put a Bird on It," where Fred and Carrie revitalise a boring stationary shop by painting "free" and "beautiful" birds on everything for a fresh new look, until an actual bird flies in and isn't quite as appreciated by them as bird motifs are. Other funny sketches include the "Sanitation Twins" and the recurring "Feminist Bookstore." If you like laughing at the expense of hipsters, "Portlandia" is a great way to get some comic relief during finals week.
"Portlandia's" first and second seasons are available on Netflix, while the third season airs Fridays at 10 p.m. on the Independent Film Channel (IFC).
2. "Downton Abbey"
If you're more into drama, "Downton Abbey" is a great show to get wrapped up in. Beginning in 1912, the show follows the ups and downs of the wealthy English Crawley family in 1912. The show follows the lives of the aristocratic family and the many servants who work for them, both of which have dramatic and detailed storylines.
It's as easy to get lost in this show as it is to get lost in the sprawling estate that is Downton Abbey. The huge cast and all the plots and subplots surrounding them suck you into the show, and the beautiful sets and costumes don't hurt either. One of the most intriguing things about the show are the social differences between the family and the servants. Since the family is extremely wealthy, they have a huge staff of servants to cook, clean and even dress them.
The show can be very long, sometimes over an hour, but it somehow never gets boring. "Downton Abbey" is a great show to immerse yourself in and will help you forget about the stress of finals.
"Downton Abbey's" first two seasons are available on Netflix and season three airs Sunday nights on PBS's "Masterpiece," but the air time varies with different cable providers.

Correction: Weed Killer-Label story
Posted: Aug 9, 2019 / 10:21 AM HST / Updated: Aug 12, 2019 / 11:07 AM HST
FILE – In this Feb. 24, 2019, file photo, containers of Roundup are displayed on a store shelf in San Francisco. The Trump administration has instructed companies not to warn customers about products that contain glyphosate, a move aimed at California as it fights one of the world's largest agriculture companies about the potentially cancer-causing chemical.(AP Photo/Haven Daley, File)
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — In a story Aug. 9 about a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announcement regarding the chemical glyphosate, The Associated Press misspelled the first name of a spokeswoman from Bayer AG. She is Charla Lord, not Chandra Lord. Also, in an early version of the story, the AP reported that the EPA had instructed companies not to warn customers about glyphosate. The EPA's announcement said it would no longer approve labels warning that glyphosate could pose a cancer risk.
A corrected version of the story is below:
EPA won't approve warning labels for Roundup chemical
The Trump administration says it won't approve warning labels for products that contain glyphosate, a chemical in the weed killer Roundup.
By ADAM BEAM
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — The Trump administration says it won't approve warning labels for products that contain glyphosate, a move aimed at California as it fights one of the world's largest agriculture companies about the potentially cancer-causing chemical.
California requires warning labels on glyphosate products — widely known as the weed killer Roundup — because the International Agency for Research on Cancer has said it is "probably carcinogenic."
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency disagrees, saying its research shows the chemical poses no risks to public health. California has not enforced the warning label for glyphosate because Monsanto, the company that makes Roundup, sued and a federal judge temporarily blocked the warning labels last year until the lawsuit could be resolved.
"It is irresponsible to require labels on products that are inaccurate when EPA knows the product does not pose a cancer risk," EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler said in a statement. "We will not allow California's flawed program to dictate federal policy."
California's Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act, approved by voters in 1986, requires the government to publish a list of chemicals known to cause cancer, as determined by a variety of outside groups that include the EPA and IARC. The law also requires companies to warn customers about those chemicals.
California regulators have twice concluded glyphosate did not pose a cancer risk for drinking water. But in 2015, the IARC classified the chemical as "probably carcinogenic," triggering a warning label under California law.
Federal law regulates how pesticides are used and how they are labeled. States can impose their own requirements, but they can't be weaker than the federal law, according to Brett Hartl, government affairs director for the Center for Biological Diversity.
Hartl said it is unusual for the EPA to tell a state it can't go beyond the federal requirements.
"It's a little bit sad the EPA is the biggest cheerleader and defender of glyphosate," Hartl said. "It's the Environmental Protection Agency, not the pesticide protection agency."
In a letter to companies explaining its decision, Michael L. Goodis, director of EPA's registration division in its Office of Pesticide Programs, said the agency considers labels warning glyphosate to cause cancer to "constitute a false and misleading statement," which is prohibited by federal law.
Charla Lord, a representative for Monsanto's parent company Bayer AG, said the EPA's announcement "is fully consistent with the science-based conclusions reached by the agency and leading health regulators worldwide for more than four decades."
"Glyphosate is not carcinogenic," Lord said.
An estimated 13,000 plaintiffs have pending lawsuits against Monsanto concerning glyphosate. Three of those cases went to trial in California, and juries awarded damages in each case, although judges later reduced the amounts.
In May, a jury ordered Monsanto to pay a California couple $2.055 billion dollars after a trial where they blamed the company's product for caused their cancers. Last month, a judge reduced that award to $87 million.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Nine parents who were deported as the Trump administration separated thousands of migrant families landed back into the U.S. late Wednesday to reunite with children they had not seen in a year and a half.
The group arrived at Los Angeles International Airport from Guatemala City in a trip arranged under the order of a federal judge who found the U.S. government had unlawfully prevented them from seeking asylum. An asylum advocate confirmed the nine parents were all aboard the flight.

The Hammer of the Scots
Last Thursday I got my second game of Hammer of the Scots with Chris. This time we knew the rules and it played very differently. I was the Scots again and went for the same strategy as last time, securing the Highlands and trying to work down from there. I had bad luck when a herald failed to get the Comyn to join me and I had to do it the hard way. I also failed to take Buchan when I had 6 counters ready to attack on the last turn of the year and Chris played a Truce card. After that I was driven backwards into the highlands and when Wallace was forced to go into the discard pile I was entirely eliminated on the next turn.
I suspect I was wrong to be in such awe of the English early on, and should have tried more aggressively to hold the centre of Scotland, where I'd be able to recruit and repair more armies. The hidden movement makes the English faction look very strong, but most of it is scattered nobles who aren't that powerful on attack and need to guard their home area.
By contrast my strategy surrendered the richer centre of Scotland leaving me to fight for the highlands which just aren't as valuable. Also if I went for the centre of Scotland I might just be able to keep Bruce alive for more than one year as well!
All in all, a fun game. Now I just have to find an opponent interested in playing it!

A variety of games
In the last few weeks with my brother visiting from London and Steve over from Melbourne, I've been able to do quite a bit of gaming. With Chris, I've played Twilight Struggle, a two-player game of the Cold War. We made a lot of mistakes as we played, which comes from Chris's having played with a more experienced player in the past and my not having read the rules. However, we figured out where we went wrong and will know better next time! It plays very well, with a clean card-driven system.
We've also had a game of Hammer of the Scots, but made even more mistakes and hope to get a game of it tomorrow with a better grasp of the rules. It's a campaign for control of Scotland during the reign of Edward I of England. It's likely to be a good deal bloodier next time around!
With Steve we played a couple of three-player games; Seven Wonders is a really nifty civilization-building game that plays very quickly, but is a good deal of fun. Elasund involves developing one's power in a city set in the world of Catan. It has a Viking feel to the artwork and provides good scope for sabotaging one's opponents.
With Steve, besides the DBA day at the AWC, I got in a game of SBH (Song of Blades and Heroes) and another game of DBA. I'll post battle reports soon.
Finally, with the kids and Chris I've had a game of Ticket to Ride, railway building in Europe, and Bohnanza, a beanfarming trading game. These are fun games with more strategy than a lot the family board games I grew up with.

I had a solo game of the short version of this game last Saturday. On the first turn the Goths failed to break through (as did the Vandals). They also failed on the next turn, being left to watch the Huns surge ahead to sack Balkan cities. The Vandals broke through on the second turn and started advancing for Spain. The Goths decided to sit up in Germany away from the Huns and grow. It wasn't a great strategy. The Huns got very powerful, turning on the Vandals and slaughtering them before turning on the Goths, with enough counters spare to head into North Africa and march for Egypt). The Vandals also got attacked by a daring raid by sea into Spain that overran many of their scattered tribesmen. However, on the return voyage the Roman leader, army and ships were destroyed. The Vandals now had a much safer voyage to Africa and sacked Carthage. They then decided to settle the islands of the Mediterranean, away from Huns; they got to Sicily and Corsica OK, but had a shipwreck on the way to the Balearic Isles. This pretty much sealed their fate (especially when a seaborne raid by the Eastern Empire destroyed their Berber allies). Using the random events, the Goths were struck by plague and then holed up by Huns in Scandinavia! They achieved nothing. However, the Huns were not able to break into the Eastern Empire; a Persian invasion (controlled by the Huns) was defeated by a seaborne response, though the counters from North Africa did succeed in sacking Alexandria.
The Romans won handily. The main mistakes I made were not noting that combined attacks are only possible close to one's leader. This would have hampered the Huns. I also didn't do sea movement properly, or carefully enough. Each movement of the fleet has at least a 1/6 chance of disaster. In particular, the move of the fleet to the counters being moved needs to be rolled for, which wouldn't generally be a problem for the Romans as they only had one mobile army. It was more that I had the fleets in out-of-the-way places, when they could have and should have been with the field armies.
It's an interesting game, and very nostalgic, as it'd be some 25 years since I played it. It doesn't play that well solo, as the different players need to negotiate how they will work together; you can't really play all-out attacks against all the others, as that benefits the Romans too much. The barbarians need to cooperate to some extent.

Not much to report
It's over a month since I posted and since then I've not played any DBA or done any painting. I've been out enjoying the summer, which is all good, and the sum total of my DBA has been my involvement in the Punic Peril campaign, where I've had a bit of luck (or quite a lot) with sieges. In Etruria I've held out for four seasons now, while in Akra Leuke, after a drubbing in spring, we risked another encounter and got lucky with the siege. I'm not sure how long my luck can last, but it's fun while it does.
Otherwise, I've ordered some figures to round out my Hellenistic armies, for when I get to paint next. I also got a short board game, Empire, by Philip Sabin from the Society of Ancients. It plays very quickly, but I'm thinking it might make for an interesting vehicle for a DBA campaign. I'll need to give some thought to the interface between the two games.

Getting all nostalgic
Our visit to Germany is coming to an end, and we're on trains travelling back to Britain. A question from my daughter got me thinking about other trips, and I ended up thinking of my first overseas trip, to North America in 1979. The highlights for me consisted of games, no doubt to the frustration of my parents, a frustration I can sympathize with now that I'm travelling with kids of my own! These were games not available in New Zealand then. My brother got the then.new SPI game Swords and Sorcery. It was our first board wargame and held an enduring fascination for me, despite its rather quirky names. I played quite a number of solo games with a more powerful New Oc Empire (Chairman Naskhund and his lackey were too lame, so I generated some new leaders).
The games that I got were some of the Metagaming Microgames: GEV and Ogre, Chitin and a few others whose names I forget. It's a reflexion of a different age when foreign exchange was hard to get and mail orders were more complicated that I was haunted for quite a long time by the desire to get some of the games advertised in the back of these. Steve got a number of them later; and Sticks and Stones, stone age skirmishing, in particular, didn't live up to expectations, though The Fantasy Trip (TFT), the advanced version of Melee and Wizard, was a lot of fun.
A number of these games were really enjoyable to play. One, from memory, involved Boppers, which were post-apocalyptic robotic weapons factories that churned out rather thick and cheap robot tanks to fight each other.
Another was Ice War, a futuristic Russian attack on the US's Alaskan oil fields. It had a fun hidden movement system for the Russians.
Chitin, harvest wars of the Hymenoptera, was a game that had some very neat giant insects. It came with a promise of an expansion that was sadly never fulfilled. The insect types were given stats for TFT, but I doubt any figures were made of them, a pity as they'd make a great HOTT army.
For a long time board games seemed more attractive to me, as they held the potential to fight larger scale actions, and I couldn't afford many figures. I had some Airfix figures, but not enough to satisfy my grandious schemes for refighting Napoleonic battles. I also lost interest in these after painting them without any undercoat nor knowing about protective varnishes, only to see the paint all peel off.
Eventually I found some boardgame rules by SPI in an issue of their magazine for refighting Quatre Bras. However, back then I didn't have the technology for making new counters, so plans to use these rules to refight Napoleonic battles.eventually got shelved, not, however, before I got Avalon Hill's War and Peace second-hand. I never really played it, though a friend, Chris, played it solo a lot. He commented that Napoleon's army ablated in action, which seemed a fairly accurate reflection of attrition.
In that period, I played quite a lot of role-playing. Gamma World and The Fantasy Trip were the systems that got the most actual use. Gamma World was heavily modified, with a colourful critical hit system and encounters drawn from the Sci-Fi films of the time, particularly Terminator. However, the system I looked at a lot without ever getting a campaign going was Chivalry and Sorcery. It had a marvellous amount of detail for generating feudal holding: the number of knights, sergeants, yeomen and peasants in a barony, as well as land area and the size of the castle! It also had a really interesting character generation system and combat system, but they were a little too involved to play easily. As for the magic system, it took this complexity to another level again.
Board games that actually got played were generally multiplayer Avalon Hill ones. We played Dune quite a few times. Steve remembers a memorable win in which as the Bene Gesserit he successfully predicted that I would win and on what turn. I don't think I saw the funny side at the time! We also played Civilisation fairly regularly, despite the results being a bit predictable for anyone held back a turn by missing a civilisation advance.
Kingmaker was less fun, as it tended to degenerate into people sitting in power bases, North Wales, the North of England or around London and battles only occurring if a random event took someone away from these places.
Down with the King was a game I remember fondly. There was something nice about having the Minister of Justice and both judges in your faction, concocting a rival's execution, and then swearing vengeance at his funeral (on a random table)! However, when I bought a copy some years back I found it much more complex than I had remembered. I think Chris had done all the thinking for us, or computer games had made us soft!
To bring this all back closer to the present, computers have changed the nature of boardgames hugely. The ones that still have appeal are ones that are playable. Avalon Hill ones were generally better in this than SPI ones. Similarly the rational for figure gaming has probably shifted a little too; computers, in theory, can create more detailed simulations. In practice, I think they tend to emphasize flashy graphics for kids. Again, playability, for the same reasons, ought to be a priority, and it certainly is for me. However, the visual appeal of figure games give them an appeal that boardgames to a fair degree lack. Having said that, the construction quality of boardgames, perhaps in response to this situation, has improved.
Anyway, hopefully today I'll get to see Decline and Fall. How much I'll ever play it is another matter, Similarly I don't know if I'll act on nostalgia to get Swords and Sorcery. I got Britannia and Medieval last year and have not had a chance to play either of them other than solo.

Buying stuff (and thinking of getting more)
I've made use of my visit to Britain to get some figures without paying for postage. So far I've been pretty modest, and only got some Goblins (though quite a few!). These are from Magister Militum and will allow me to use my Goblins as just about any DBA army.
Inspired by Craig's comment that he liked my 'Classical Goblins', I decided to get them some real chariots. The 'Platform Carts' of the Chariot range aren't that good, but I've managed to get them to provide solid wheels from their Sumerian range, which will make them look cruder.
I've also got some rhinosauruses that should be able to be used as knights, and more goblins that can be based as 4Sp/4Pk. To make the 'elephants' (behemoths in HOTT) more regular, I got some more of their ogres (armoured ones for variety). I'll mix these in and make one of them a command element with a goblin standard bearer and drummer. Then I'll have three 'elephants' with a clear commander for them. I can also create pike armies with the spearmen (stand-in successor armies until I paint one!). In time, I should have some endlessly morphable Goblins for practice fights.
I've also bought a second-hand boardgame for nostalgia value. It's WRG's Decline and Fall. I had a lot of fun playing this years ago, not that it's terribly well balanced, but it was going cheaply enough and again I could save on postage.
Otherwise, I'm considering making my post AD 450 Early Muslim North Africa and Sicily (III/33). It occurred to me that these were a loose form of Carthaginians: same geographical place and some similarities in the army; they don't have elephants or warbands, but they have similar amounts of cavalry (one more 2LH than the Carthos), spear and psiloi. they have the option of ditching the spear and going for lots of auxilia, which would make them very mobile, and potentially a headache for elephant armies.
I'll need to research the history of this army a little more. Are there any colourful personalities that led it? But it has the potential to satisfy my requirements for an army. It has an interesting mix of troops and they'd fight in a similar fashion to the Carthaginians (not that I've mastered them with the Carthaginians). It has potential to hold my interest, especially as I'm thinking of getting some of their enemies for a campaign: Andalusians (III/34b), Fanatic Berbers (III/74), Feudal Spanish (III35b) and Sicilians (IV/5a). The figures for these have a degree of internal morphability, so wouldn't need to be done all at once. They've also got a lot of psiloi, which would make them cheaper and quicker to paint.

The Fall of Catan
The Deviosi dynasty are licking their wounds after failing to dominate the Six Islands. The only ray of sunshine in this encounter was that the threats of the Kushites proved vain. The victors were the Hyskos, villainous Asiatics, who proved more devious than any of the Deviosi. The speed of their victory gave clear evidence of their total lack of scruples.
Their most egregious act was to land on an island to which the Deviosi clearly held first nation status and to build over the foundations of a settlement the Deviosi had started. With the wood they looted from this lawless act they went on to construct an impressive navy that united their far-flung holdings. And though there's no denying the quality of the ships they built, that changes not a bit the black-hearted scurvy dogs that crew them!
Hail Lawrence, tyrant of Catan!

Regarding the future release of v1.2.1.3 of SuRun, I was wondering if you could rename the explorer context menu wording from 'Start as Administrator' to 'SuRun as Administrator'.
This would avoid any confusion with the Microsoft Windows 'Run as Administrator'.
I have users who always get the two confused.
As always, thank you. And thank you for SuRun.
This post was edited 3 times, last on 2017-10-23, 22:50 by Kay.
Diese Befehlsdifferenzierung finde ich SEHR gut und unterstütze sie ebenfalls.
I'll change the command names.
Any progress on the update to version 1.2.1.3?
I made a private Beta 1 for SuRun 1.2.1.3 earlier this year.
CHG: Changed SuRun's Context Menu Strings from "<...>" to "SuRun: <...>"
I'm on the "Admin moderated restricted SuRunner" feature right now.
Great, thank you Kay. And thank you for all your hard work, it is much appreciated.
If a restricted SuRunner tries to run a non validated Programm with elevated rights, SuRun will now ask for Administrator credentials to launch the program elevated in the user's context.
"If a restricted SuRunner tries to run a non validated Program with elevated rights, SuRun will now ask for Administrator credentials to launch the program elevated in the user's context."
My question is when the 'Automagically run this program with elevated rights' check box is ticked, where does SuRun save the elevated rights settings? I looked and could not find any saved settings.
This post was edited on 2017-08-18, 20:40 by LeastPrivileges.
SuRun stores all user specific settings in HKLM\Security\SuRun.
To see entries in this tree you probably need to run "surun /runas /user system regedit"
SuRun Stores settings for users in HKLM\Security\SuRun\<ComputerName>\<UserName>.
If the computer name was changed, SuRun's settings were apparently lost.
Starting with 1.2.3.1b3, SuRun checks the current computer name against the last seen computer name and changes the registry tree accordingly.
This post was edited on 2017-08-20, 11:40 by Kay.
Thank you. I was not aware of this SuRun key in the registry. So when the 'Automagically run this program with elevated rights' check box is ticked, it saves the setting here: HKLM\Security\SuRun.
CHG: Made Hooks Windows 10 1709 compatible.

Breathtaking photos. Brilliant ideas. Even if I didn't have a kid, the book would inspire me to be bold and playful in my landscaping.
Until recently, children played outdoors after school and in the summer. Today, however, children are more likely to spend their free time indoors, watching television, playing video games, or using a computer. But children thrive in the natural world — studies show that they work and mature better mentally, physically, and emotionally when exposed to nature. This book offers a wide range of innovative examples showing how to create special places in which children can experience nature on their own home turf. Featured throughout are miniature paradises that parents and grandparents have designed just for the children in their lives, highlighting an enchanting variety of elements that will make any garden come alive.
"[Dannenmaier] presents 60 vibrant and inspired landscape plans and innovative weekend projects designed to help motivated parents create imaginative havens that will appeal to both young ones and those who are young at heart."
"Reminds parents to plan both for open space and hiding places, leaving plenty of room for young imaginations to grow."
"By delving into 'how children really play,' the book shares stories of families who have transformed time in the garden into playtime, and features the blueprints, photos, and plants that made each garden successful."
"Filled with ideas, this book reveals how to turn any green space into an inspiring one. Find garden plans, learn how to nurture a youngster's green thumb or simply pillage the pages for great ideas for your own yard."
"The book's pictures, taken in both private and public gardens from coast to coast, are inspiring. And the author's suggestions are so delightful, I soon found myself drawing up a list of new features I'd like to add for the kids in my life."
"Provides inspiration for parents who'd like to make their yards more appealing to kids, or even landscape professionals interested in the history of children's gardens, the psychology of how children play, and the features that encourage learning, make-believe, and exercise."
"Packed with luscious photographs and simple techniques and structures you can use to nurture a child's wild side."
"This book aims to motivate parents and caregivers who are concerned about children's lack of connection to the outdoors."
"One of the handiest books available to encourage children to learn and thrive in the natural world."
"Breathtaking photos. Brilliant ideas. Even if I didn't have a kid, the book would inspire me to be bold and playful in my landscaping."
Molly Dannenmaier is passionate about the importance of gardens and nature in enriching children's lives. She has served as children's editor of Garden Design and editor of Landscape Architecture and Parent and Child magazines.

Someday I may get through the queue of images I have yet to edit from the years chasing storms, but that's doubtful 😂
Here's a new shot from June 12th, 2017 after a rough day chasing, missing tornadoes and epic structure…I found redemption near sunset in western Nebraska close to the town of Minatare. This supercell was electric and put out a sick ton of bolts. I'd keep chasing this guy through Alliance and well into the Sandhills until almost midnight.
https://i0.wp.com/www.mikeolbinski.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/20170612_O2_4996-0001.jpg?fit=2048%2C1024&ssl=1 1024 2048 Mike http://www.mikeolbinski.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/EnfoldLogo.gif Mike2018-11-16 10:37:182018-11-16 10:37:18The Fields
Not gonna lie, and I've said it before probably, but July 9th was definitely the best day ever chasing haboobs 😂
This was southwest of Gila Bend aways, eight-image panoramic with the Sony A7R3 and Sigma Art 14-24. Massive, dense haboob riding underneath a pretty nifty shelf cloud.
That wall of dust originated southwest of Phoenix and ended up rolling into California and Mexico after dark…what an amazing day.

A favorite image of mine from this past summer that I've been saving for whatever reasons, but figured I'd post it finally. Sometimes you like an image so much you are afraid to post it thinking others wont feel the same…silly, but it's real.
Captured this about 3 miles from the Mexico board in the Coronado National Forest west of Nogales, while on a workshop with Paula and Karen. It was quite the show and shocking to us that this storm that seems to be dropping rain on the other side of the mountains, was putting down lightning strikes on OUR side. That hill got hit at least two other times and it was quite amazing to see from up so high.
This area seems so non-Arizona, it was almost like we WERE in another country for a little bit. Green mountains that definitely have more of a central America look to them. Such a gorgeous part of the state.

Monsoon V (4K)
October 30, 2018 /8 Comments/in timelapse /by Mike
Blu-Ray discs available here: http://www.mikeolbinski.com/shop/
My original plan this past summer was to collect as much footage as normal, but to not put out a "Monsoon V" until 2019 when I had two years worth of crazy haboobs and lightning to make it truly spectacular. But the monsoon had different plans and put on a pretty dang good show in 2018, starting off with a decent dust storm on July 5th, then the best haboob chase I've ever had on July 9th, an epic green hail core on July 11th and finally another fantastic dust storm day on August 2nd.
Sprinkled in there…more dust storm, some at night, spectacular lightning, and tons of microbursts and stormy clouds, plus a few rotating supercells to put some icing on the cake. It was one of the best monsoon seasons I've chased, so I couldn't help but get to work on Monsoon V a few weeks ago.
I love doing these films so much. So much hard work for months on end goes into capturing them. Almost 15,000 miles this summer across Arizona. 85,000+ frames with plenty more deleted. A total of 32 days out there chasing over three months. Sleep deprivation, tons of gas money, crappy food and yes, sometimes missing storms I wish I had been on.
But the highs were amazing. Chasing with my kiddos…sharing the July 9th haboob bonanza with Lyla and Eli…or an all-night chase with my youngest, Asher. They were so awesome to have along. Two workshops with five fantastic people. Both were so fun and the storms we saw were just wonderful. I feel so blessed to teach people and show the monsoon off to those who have never seen it before.
As always is the case…this year, including tornado season, I chased the most I ever have. Which means more time away from home. And Jina…my incredible wife…she's so supportive of my passion and this business. Taking care of the kids and running everything at home during those months…I am forever amazed at how she always has my back, even during the times when it's too hard and she'd rather not. I can't thank her enough for allowing me to chase my dreams.
I do want to thank all of you watching this…over the years, so many people have seen the films, left kind words, purchased DVDs, prints and even books. I don't know how many people asked me this year about when Monsoon V was coming out, and I have to say…it was extremely motivating. So thank you for the support and kind words of encouragement and excitement about these storm movies…I can honestly say you are a huge reason why I keep making them!

I probably chased more days in 2018 than ever before. Beginning on April 28th out in eastern Colorado that began a busy spring season on the plains, and then with the monsoon kicking off in late June. About five straight months of chasing. Near 40k miles or more driven. Tens of thousands of time-lapse frames taken.
This year I went with the idea of not releasing a spring chase film like I have in the past…with Pursuit, Vorticity, The Chase…etc. 2018 was a tough season in general, but I also wanted to make my next film as spectacular as possible, so I decided to stockpile this year, chase next spring and then come out with Vorticity 2, which will hopefully be chock full of the most amazing stuff I've ever shot. I know many people told me they were looking forward to seeing what I shot this year, but you might have to wait a bit…and I appreciate your patience!
I will likely begin work on my next Monsoon film here shortly as it was actually a pretty good season and may warrant being Monsoon V, even though I was going to do the same thing and wait until 2019 to share the next in the monsoon series. That may still change, but as of right now, look for it in the coming months!
So with that being said…I hope you enjoy this short trailer that highlights some of my favorite clips from 2018. Just a taste of the good stuff and a preview of upcoming films.
Everything shot with two Canon 5DSRs and various Canon lenses. One night lightning clip shot with a Sony A7R3.

Salome Strike
August 15, 2018 /0 Comments/in prints /by Mike
Yesterday my workshop ended and since some of the models were calling for huge storms in Tucson to kick out a dust storm up the 10 in the afternoon, I hit up Benson for a bit to shoot around, but it quickly became apparent the dust storm wasn't gonna happen until possibly way late.
So I raced to Phoenix (anxious to be home after six days anyway), caught the storms rolling into town up on the 101/64th street, hung out with storm pals Jerrod Harris, John Moore and some others! Lightning wasn't happening though, so I moved onto the west side of town, caught a nice bolt producer over the White Tanks and then took a chance further west on Salome Highway where I caught this majestic beast.
The storm was kicking out some good strikes all around me, but there wasn't anywhere I could shoot out of the rain…so I did something I usually hate, which is to just be patient and wait for the rain to pass 😂
The moment the rain stopped, I jumped out, setup up tthe Sony at 14mm and jumped back in the truck. A huge flash happened and I swear the bolt appeared to be right in front of me, but it turned out just to be the one in the left edge of this frame. So I jumped back out of the truck cursing because I missed it…and then saw the photo and was like…oh okay…that'll do donkey…that'll do 🙂
A huge positive or clear air CG…looks like it landed just across the freeway, a couple hundred feet away or so. It froze the profile of a passing truck as well, almost looking like it was near hitting it. Love the highway itself lighting up from being wet with rain.
Later I ended up on I-8 in the wee hour of the morning, but that's for another time 🙂

Not gonna lie…I enjoy getting close to lightning. Yeah, I'll hide in the truck when my cameras are shooting…but I just really enjoy the close bolts and all the detail in them.
Yesterday was fun in the afternoon down southeast of Tucson…got some nice daytime bolts, enjoyed some flash flooding near Corona de Tucson…but after that, with storms in all directions except for where I was in Tucson…I couldn't decide. West…east…north closer to home. Ugh. Went north, it sucks, went back to Tucson…pulled over, took a shot, then it was insane rain everywhere and I was done.
But storms popped over Phoenix while I was down there and so I was hoping to get lucky on the way home. Lightning was hitting Maricopa and near Sacaton north of me, so I setup on 187 and was hoping to get a bolt striking nearby up I-10 (which is where the car light trails are in the photo). But I setup the 50mm first and looked away as my buddy Chris Frailey pulled up, then looked back and suddenly a massive CG hit what felt like right in front of me. I stumbled as I raced to the car to get the wide angle, and two more bolts slammed down in the meantime. They were landing just about 1-2 miles away.
I got the 11-24mm ready, set to 15mm, calmly focused, f/8, iso 100, set it up, hit the shutter and BOOM this happened and then that was it haha.
25 second exposure, it all hit at once (other than the distance left one) and it was magnificent. Been waiting for a monster bolt like this for awhile now.

Swallowing Tempe
I never end up in Tempe for these things, but the way Thursday's haboob progressed more north/northeast, and how behind we were, I skipped downtown Phoenix and went to this spot where I've shot a ton of times for other things…in fact, some of my very first images I took about eight years ago down here.
It's a quick spot to get to, with an iconic view of downtown Tempe with the Mill Avenue bridges. The time-lapse is pretty sweet, I got two from here, wish I could have shot two more as looking east was pretty gnarly as well.
Oh and a Southwest Airlines plane is in there trying to outrace it

The Great Haboob Chase on Interstate 8
July 25, 2018 /0 Comments/in timelapse /by Mike
On July 9th, 2018, I woke up in Blythe, California, and checked the forecast one more time and it confirmed what I already knew the day before: the potential for an awesome storm rolling west down Interstate 8 was looking pretty good. And with that came the likelihood of a dust storm, or haboob. I already had the entire day's route planned out…I'd hit south near the border towns of Sells and Santa Rosa, then head back north to I-8 to catch the storm outflows from Phoenix and central Arizona.
Rarely does a forecast come to fruition so perfectly…but this one did. I chased some good severe storms in the far southern portions of the state, and then headed north…hitting the town of Chuichu south of I-8 just as things got rolling. A big microburst kicked up a wall of dust that would move west and eventually merge with other, strong storms that rolled through Phoenix.
We jumped on I-8 and got west out of the dust and pulled over first at Vekol Road, my favorite spot along that freeway. The wall of dust was incredibly impressive…shelf cloud over it, the dust connecting right into the cloud base…it was amazing.
It was around 5:00pm at that point…and the chase would continue, for hours, all the way to Yuma. One of my final shots came around 8:30pm in the area of Ligurta. All told, around 140 miles and three and a half hours of chasing. Never have I chased a wall of dust for that long. Or been chased!
Besides July 5th, 2011…this was hands down, the best haboob I've ever seen. So many shapes and sizes. Incredibly density and definition. And the colors at sunset. Magnificent.
The film has all the clips from start to finish…somewhat in order, but not always. The microburst at the start was in Chuichu and the final scene was Ligurta.
It was fun to not only share this with some other chasers all having the time of their lives, but also with two of my kiddos. What an experience to have together!
Hope you enjoy this, and the music by Ryan Taubert.
I shot around 5,000 frames on two Canon 5DSR's for this. Lenses were the Canon 11-24mm and 50mm 1.2.

Vekol Sparks
April 19, 2018 /0 Comments/in prints /by Mike
A stunner of a sunset on August 23rd last year out along Vekol Road. I was flying down there, exited the freeway and of course my buddy John Sirlin beat me there by five minutes. Such an incredible sight…the colors were intense and the bolts were everywhere. This was my favorite one from this spot…we left west after it got dark and shot more lightning near Gila Bend and then up in Sun City West even later in the night. One of the top days chasing last summer!

Q: How can I verify that my laptop has hybrid graphics? I have a Thinkpad T430, the version with Core i7 2.9 GHz which, according to this specs page, should have an nVidia hybrid GPU from the factory.  I'm using Ubuntu Mate 16.04.3 LTS.  I have (according to Ubuntu) 2x 4GB 1600 MHz DDR3 RAM modules, total 8 GB RAM, and a 320 GB 7200 rpm platter hard disk, with 100+ GB free in my /home, and 20+ GB free in /.
However, after a recent incident where attempting to use bumblebee and nVidia Prime (switching from Prime to bumblebee when Prime didn't seem to work) led to loss of keyboard and mouse response at login screen, I ended up reinstalling Ubuntu as the fastest way to restore function (now working fine, fully restored).
After reinstalling Ubuntu, I tried installing nVidia drivers and bumblebee again (from the graphics-drivers ppa, which gives a much more current version than the standard Ubuntu repos), and noted that while both driver and bumblebee installed, bumblebee complained during installation that no discrete graphics card was detected.  I didn't see anything similar with the nVidia drivers, but to be honest, I wasn't really looking yet when I ran that install.
At that point, to avoid starting over on my reinstallation by recreating the previous failure, I removed the bumblebee packages and the nVidia drivers.  The machine is running fine on the Intel graphics, but there's reason to believe that the heavy RAM usage by the integrated graphics is causing a performance issue with a favorite game (Kerbal Space Program), because of the way the graphics uses system RAM.
A pretty prolonged search found no answers to similar questions newer than 2015, and the newer of those were founded on the assumption that the hardware was known to be present, or that lspci would report it as a "3D Controller" -- which does not occur on my system.
For instance, this doesn't show any video hardware except the Intel:

sudo lshw -C video
[sudo] password for [user]:

*-display

   description: VGA compatible controller
   product: 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller
   vendor: Intel Corporation
   physical id: 2
   bus info: pci@0000:00:02.0
   version: 09
   width: 64 bits
   clock: 33MHz
   capabilities: msi pm vga_controller bus_master cap_list rom
   configuration: driver=i915 latency=0
   resources: irq:27 memory:f0000000-f03fffff memory:e0000000-efffffff
ioport:5000(size=64) memory:c0000-dffff

Now for the real question: is there a reliable way, without either nvidia-prime or bumblebee, bumblebee-nvidia, and primus installed and working, to determine for certain that my machine does or does not have the nVidia GPU that Lenovo seems to say was present in T430 systems with this CPU?  I don't see any way or reason the GPU might have been removed during the refurb (and have the computer still operate -- it'd be soldered, rather than socketed, right?), but I haven't been able to get any software test I've tried to admit it's present.  There is an empty space under the RAM cover; it appears to be a mini-PCIe for an optional cellular broadband modem that was offered for this model.  I found a maintenance manual online, it shows where the GPU would be mounted if present, and it's not accessible without disassembly (top of the logic board, under the upper right of the keyboard).  It doesn't, however, specify which exact models have the GPU.  The exact model number is available in BIOS or via lshw (don't have it with me, I'm at work now).

A: sudo lshw -C video is a reliable way to find out existent GPUs. On your lshw -C video output, there is only one GPU listed.
If you check the Lenovo website, the two GPUs (Intel and nVidia) maybe present. If you check each model here, for example, some models have two GPUs, while others just have the Intel based one.
Your model have just one GPU.


One of the most significant ways patients formulate opinions about the quality of their care is through their interactions with doctors' via the telephone.
While automation seems to have permeated every aspect of our society today, including the physician's office, according to market surveys, callers are more likely to do business when a live person answers the phone.
Most people picture the main role of a call answering service as phone-based. This may be a part of the role that your professional answering service plays on your behalf, but their job isn't complete when the call is finished. Here are some of the other things that answering services do and how they work behind the scenes to stay sharp for their clients - you!

It takes patience, practice, and a bit of finesse to routinely handle aggravated callers. A customer may get upset with your business for a variety of reasons, and it's your job to handle those calls professionally whether the reason is justified or not. How you manage a difficult customer could make the difference between losing a client and receiving more business from a satisfied client referral. Here are a few tips for managing those difficult calls as well as the ways that a call answering service can help.
Running a business in any industry is a challenge, and it's difficult to operate your business effectively while still being available for customers when they call. Unfortunately, being accessible to clients is part of the job, and many will head for the door if you're not giving them the attention they deserve.
We all have preconceived notions about businesses and services, and a professional answering service is no exception. When you're dealing with the unknown or considering trusting another company with a part of your business, having doubts is understandable. Here are a few busted myths about call answering services that could make you look at them in an entirely different light.
The Future of Customer Service: Where Will Tech Take Us?
If there is one thing that clients and customers love, it's great service. Whether you are serving coffee or providing legal services, a top priority should always be to deliver the highest level of customer care possible. Several years ago, American Express conducted a Service Study, finding that 63% of consumers felt their heart rate increase (in a good way) when they received great customer service. Delivering the best service is hard work, and we know that keeping your business running is difficult enough. Fortunately, technology is making this task easier. Here is where we see the future of customer service headed and how tech is pushing us to new levels of customer care.
The digital age has made communication and nearly everything else easier and faster than it was just ten or twenty years ago. With our lightning-fast exchange of data, it can be tempting to throw in short-cuts that get us to our destination even quicker. However, neglecting manners and basic etiquette in business situations can be a costly mistake. Here are several reasons why manners still matter and how a professional answering service can help.
