The latest cumulative updates for Exchange Server 2016 and Exchange Server 2013 are now available on the download center. An update rollup for Exchange Server 2010 is also available. The updates released today include important changes to the pre-requisites required to install Exchange Server. The installation packages include fixes to customer reported issues, all previously reported security/quality issues and updated functionality.
As announced previously, Exchange Server 2016 Cumulative Update 10 and Exchange Server 2013 Cumulative Update 21 require .NET Framework 4.7.1. Exchange Setup will enforce this requirement during cumulative update installation. Customers who are running an older version of .NET Framework will need to update their server to .NET Framework 4.7.1 then install the latest cumulative update.
The Exchange Server updates released today require the VC++ 2013 runtime library installed on the server. The VC++ runtime library is required to provide current and future security updates for a third party component shipped with Exchange Server. The component provides WebReady Document Viewing in Exchange Server 2010 and 2013 and Data Loss Prevention in Exchange Server 2013 and 2016. Setup will enforce the installation of the pre-requisite on Exchange Server 2013 and 2016 when a cumulative update is applied. Exchange Server 2010 Update Rollup 22 and later will force the installation of the VC++ runtime before the update can be applied. Future security updates for all versions of Exchange Server will force installation of the runtime package if not already installed. Customers who use Windows Update to patch or update their servers, will need to ensure that the VC++ 2013 runtime package is applied before running Windows Update. Update Rollup 22 and future security updates for all versions of Exchange server will fail to install manually or via Windows Update if the runtime library is not installed.
The packages released today include an updated version of the third party component to resolve the issues identified in Microsoft Advisory ADV180010. Customers are encouraged to apply the updates released today as soon as possible. The Exchange team has previously stated they will not ship security fixes in a cumulative update not previously released separate from a cumulative update. That goal and official plan of record are unchanged. Shipping the updated third party components in a cumulative update was necessary to integrate a new version of the components and a new product dependency not previously required by Exchange in a manner customers are accustomed to with minimal disruption to the Windows Update process.
The issue identified in KB4295751 is now resolved in Update Rollup 22. Customers who have Exchange Server 2010 deployed in the same forest as Exchange Server 2016 are encouraged to deploy Update Rollup 22 to ensure that unauthorized access to mailboxes on Exchange Server 2010 does not occur.
All of the packages released today include support for time zone updates published by Microsoft through May 2018.
Exchange Server 2013 entered extended support in April 2018. Cumulative Update 21 is the last planned quarterly update for Exchange Server 2013. Customers must upgrade to Cumulative Update 21 to continue to receive future security updates.
The updates released today do not include new updates to Active Directory Schema. If upgrading from an older Exchange version or installing a new server, Active Directory updates may still be required. These updates will apply automatically during setup if the logged on user has the required permissions. If the Exchange Administrator lacks permissions to update Active Directory Schema, a Schema Admin must execute SETUP /PrepareSchema prior to the first Exchange Server installation or upgrade. The Exchange Administrator should execute SETUP /PrepareAD to ensure RBAC roles are current before applying either of the cumulative updates released today.
Reminder: Customers in hybrid deployments where Exchange is deployed on-premises and in the cloud, or who are using Exchange Online Archiving (EOA) with their on-premises Exchange deployment are required to deploy the most current (e.g., 2013 CU21, 2016 CU10) or the prior (e.g., 2013 CU20, 2016 CU9) Cumulative Update release.
Our brand new Server-2016/Exchange-2016(CU9) has VC++ 2012 installed.
Do we install VC++ 2013 alongside the existing version, prior to installing CU10?
Also why not the more recent VC++ 2015 or VC++ 2017 versions?
Thank you for the question Stephen. Our third party partner has indicated that this is the version required/supported to work with their product. We are inheriting this support requirement directly from them. The behavior of the runtime is that multiple versions can be installed side by side.
Thank you for reporting this and sorry for the typo in the hyperlink. This has been resolved.
re: "Customers must upgrade to Cumulative Update 21 to continue to receive future security updates." …does that mean security updates will no longer be provided for CU4/SP1?
PS – it appears if you aren't logged in when posting a comment, like I did last week, there is no error message but it doesn't get received? Today when logged in, it immediately showed as "Your comment is awaiting moderation" after I posted.
@teammits – Yes, your interpretation of that comment is correct. During extended support only the latest cumulative update will receive security updates.
A coworker found https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/exchange/2018/04/10/exchange-server-2013-enters-extended-support-lifecycle-phase/ which says "After September 19th 2018, only Cumulative Update 21 or its successors will receive critical updates." So apparently there is a 3 month window to get to CU21.
@teamits: thank you for the hint with "must be logged in to post in the" comments – a few days ago I wonderd why my comment disapeard.
@MS: I think the CU Numbers at the reminder are wrong. The most current or prior CUs for exchange 2016 should be CU10 and CU9 instead of CU9 and CU8.
Repetition of the cmdlet doesn't help.
When I start a new EMS session the cmdlet Enable-MailPublicFolder executes without error.
Yesterday's "patch Tuesday" updates included .NET 4.7.2. However, looking at the supportability matrix, there's no row for .NET 4.7.2 and no column for Exchange 2016 CU 10. Can you clarify whether these are compatible?
Does the above mean, that the cu installs the pre-requisite automatically if they are missing?
One of our DR DAG members has had .NET Framework 4.7.2 installed in error. Is there a process for cleanly removing this and getting back to 4.7.1 without causing issues in Exchange? It doesn't appear to have any problems so far although it's only hosting passive and lagged copies at the moment.
Hoping someone can shed some light on our concern. Yesterday we installed rollup 22 on our Exchange 2010 spk 3 rollup 8. We did the prerequisite VC++. The rollup install appeared to go well and reached the Finished. Problem we are having is when we check on the Exchange version installed it still shows what we had before the rollup install. Shouldn't we now see it has rollup 22 installed?
what method are you using to check the version?
Is it expected behavior that the Active Directory preparation commands will fail when running from a DC if .NET 4.7.1 is not installed on the DC? I don't see this as a requirement on the "Prepare Active Directory and domains" article. Please advise.
so what is the sequence of steps to update to cu21 from cu17? is it VC++ 2013 runtime then .NET 4.7.1 or the other way before cu21 or the other way?
We are on Exchange 15.0.847.32 (2013 SP1). Can we just run the executable for CU 21 or do we need to go in steps?
I upgraded from CU5 to CU20. no issues yet.
Put Each server (One at a time) in Maintenance mode. Install .Net 4.7.1. Extend AD Schema (Onetime only). Install the Update. bring server out of Maintenance mode. move to next server.
Hi Exchange Team, how can we Admins give you feedback about the product? Things like: Why i can`t filter for *MAPI* Attributes in get-casmailbox, but for all other services like owa, pop etc? Or Why i have the option in the eac for a mailbox to set the sendonbehalfto but not for a sharedmailbox?
I have tried to install the CU21 in our Exchange 2013 (Two servers in DAG), but we had two problems. The first problem was about the installation of .net 4.7.1,(https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=56115) where we tried twice without success. After search a little, I found this link (https://somoit.net/windows/net-framework-4-7-1-install-stuck-hangs). After use this new package, it was possible to install the .NET version.
The second problem is about our UM. When we were in the upgrade process, we received an error message about the requisite to uninstall the pt-BR from UM to be possible to run the CU21. It was not possible to uninstall the pt-BR plugin in that moment, because we have a lot of users who use this feature, and we had not plan this new task.
Have you already have the experience to uninstall the UM package, install the CU21 and after that install again the UM package? Did you have any user impact executing this procedure? Do you have any tip about this scenario?
Are you able to uninstall the previous versions of .NET?
We have had Exchange 2013 since RTM and have many versions of .NET and would like to uninstall the older versions, however I am finding it difficult to get any on uninstalling the older versions, if it is safe to do so, is it just a simple uninstall.
We are currently on Exchange 2013 CU21 with .NET 4.7.2 which is lalatest supported version of .NET so have all of the previous versions still installed on this server.
Also are we able to uninstall older versions of VC++ or do we need to kep all versions installed?
PS: Thanks for this Blog it has been of great assistance over the years, and I have not had any issues with my upgrades by following the guidance you have provided.

The Emporium in Foleshill Road is now a grocers/green grocers, but I remember it being a Co-Op when I was growing up. Can anyone tell me, was it built to be a Co-Op, or does anyone know what the building was previously used for?
I am sure it was built as part of Lockhurst Lane Industrial Co-op society, Tricia. I played with the 'WheatSheaf' band in that building. The band was sponsored by the co-op. That was in the sixties. It was called 'Lockhurst Lane' for the convenience of goods traffic, most of which arrived by rail to Foleshill goods yard which was in Lockhurst Lane.
Thanks Philip, I now remember 'Lockhurst Lane Industrial Co-op Society'.
Remember the Co-op well... we lived on Blackwell Road... we had a number for the Co-op Dividend and collected a small receipt each time we shopped... have been lurking on this wonderful site for two years and finally registered... Congratulations Rob Orland!!

So why have Cuadrilla suddenly decided on doing EIAs?
Now, they had been waiting rather impatiently for nearly 2 years for the unofficial ban on fracking to be lifted. They messed up their drilling at Anna's road and wasted 3 more months. They expect us to believe that they are prepared to voluntarily go for another year without seeing a penny returned on their already massive investment just because they have suddenly converted to the idea of doing proper EIAs? Really?
…. or is there something else behind all this?
Are Cuadrilla perhaps wary of having planning permission refused by LCC.
By waiting for a while perhaps the provisions suggested in the new Growth and Infrastructure Bill will mean that the decision is no longer in the hands of the unpredictable LCC, but can be taken by altogether more reliable and amenable Central government departments.
Another suggestion is that Cuadrilla may now have secured long term funding from a major investor and can now afford to play a long game in search of a European-wide prize. Such a major investor (it might for example be Centrica whose interest was reported in the FT) might be unwilling to risk (further?) reputational damage and so is perhaps insisting that this is is done "properly". After all some of the big boys like BP are already in deep enough PR mire after events like Deepwater Horizon. Taking this a bit further is this new stance in fact suggestive of a major player who thinks a 'best practice' example here in the UK might wedge open the other European Union nations' resistance to fracking (the long game once again, which even Lord Browne's supposedly infinitely deep pockets can't fund) whilst Cuadrilla continue to be the front to take the bullets until such time as the community can be assuaged/ bought off/ 'fractured' to a market-acceptable level?
It is inconceivable that a company in Cuadrilla's financial position would voluntarily delay for a year just to get an EIA done. There is more to this than meets the eye, and these are just two possible explanations. Any other ideas? Let us know!

Saturday, November 11th, 2017 Howland Twp. trustee charged with OVI ordered to spend 3 days in jail NILES, Ohio (WKBN) – The Howland Township trustee charged with OVI will spend three days in jail. According to court records, James Lapolla, Jr. pleaded no contest to the charges and was sentenced Wednesday to 30 days in jail, 27 of those days were suspended. His license is also suspended for six months. Lapolla will have to serve those three days in jail within 60 days. His attorney also filed a motion Thursday for Lapolla to attend a driver intervention program. Lapolla was charged with OVI and a lane violation after police pulled him over on Route 422 on Oct. 28. A police report says Lapolla told officers he had a few drinks but didn't submit to a blood alcohol test.
Friday, November 10th, 2017 Suspected drunk driver crashes into McDonald's drive-through, fights police INDIANAPOLIS -- Police say a woman drunkenly crashed into a McDonald's drive through early Sunday morning before attacking responding officers. The crash happened around 2:00 a.m. Sunday at the McDonald's located at 3649 South Keystone Avenue. According to an incident report, 29-year-old Skyla Bolden crashed her 2009 Nissan into a pole in the restaurant's drive-through. When officers responded, Bolden allegedly kicked one of them. According to police, Bolden has a prior OWI arrest and blew a 0.220 BAC on a portable breathalyzer. Bolden was arrested on preliminary charges of operating a vehicle while intoxicated and battery on a police officer.
Thursday, November 9th, 2017 Actor Lou Diamond Phillips charged with DWI in Texas PORTLAND, Texas — Actor Lou Diamond Phillips faces a driving while intoxicated charge in Texas for an incident that happened just hours before he appeared at a speaking engagement in Corpus Christi. Police in Portland, Texas, arrested Phillips around 1:30 a.m. Friday. Jail records show the "La Bamba" star was freed after posting bail, which had been set at $2,500. Police Chief Mark Cory says an officer was conducting an unrelated traffic stop when the 55-year-old Phillips drove up and asked for directions. The officer suspected Phillips had been drinking. Cory says Phillips' blood alcohol level was .20 percent — more than twice the legal limit for driving. Cory says Phillips, who listed a California address, was cooperative. Jail records listed no attorney for Phillips, a 1980 graduate of Corpus Christi's Flour Bluff High School.
Wednesday, November 8th, 2017 vCharleston-Area State Senator arrested for DUI, providing false information CHARLESTON COUNTY, S.C. (WCBD) — South Carolina Senator Paul Campbell has been arrested for driving under the influence (DUI) and providing false information to police. According to South Carolina Highway Patrol, the crash happened on Saturday, at 9:15 PM on I-26 near mile marker 204 in Charleston County. Troopers say Campbell's vehicle rear-ended another car in congested traffic. When SCHP arrived on scene, there was discrepancy about who was driving the at-fault vehicle. The incident report explains Campbell's wife told authorities she was driving the vehicle. Campbell also told authorities his wife was driving. Through witness interviews, Troopers determined Sen. Campbell was the driver of the car and administered a field sobriety test. The test registered his blood alcohol level at .09%, while the legal limit is .08%. Campbell was arrested for DUI and providing false information to police and booked in the Charleston County Detention Center. Campbell's wife was also cited for providing false information to police. She was released at the scene. Campbell is a Berkeley County Republican, representing Charleston, Berkeley and Dorchester Counties, and is Chairman of the Senate Ethics Committee. He has served in the SC Senate since 2007. He is also Executive Director and CEO of the Charleston International Airport. Campbell had a bond court hearing Sunday morning. However, his image did not appear on the large, public monitor. Audio could be heard in the courtroom, and the judge could see the streaming image, but staff members say the public monitor was in sleep mode. Charleston County authorities released the full video to media Monday.
Tuesday, November 7th, 2017 Driving While Stoned: The Penalties and Gray Area in Marijuana Law Marijuana users should know the penalties they could face if they get behind the wheel. | Pedro Pardo/AFP/Getty Images As of November 2017, some 29 states had legalized marijuana for medicinal use. By 2018, eight of those states will allow the recreational use of pot, too. Add in the millions of Americans who smoke weed illegally and you have a small army of stoned individuals hanging out in public at all hours. At your local bar or drum circle, that's not a problem. On the other hand, when driving your kids home from school, you don't want to run into a guy who just took a round of bong hits. Likewise, marijuana users need to know the risks they face if they get behind the wheel high. State penalties for stoned driving are mostly as harsh as they are for drunk driving. Nothing kills a buzz like 120 days without your license or $1,500 in fines. However, there is no "pot breathalyzer" yet, and officers usually need special training necessary to otherwise judge intoxication via weed. Overall, confusion reigns, and the arrests of people who hadn't used marijuana before driving have made the situation worse. Here's what everyone needs to know about pot and driving, down to the gray areas in the law. 1. The risks of driving while high While there is agreement among scientists that driving under the influence of marijuana creates a more dangerous situation, there is no consensus of just how much danger. A 2016 paper from the Society for the Study of Addiction found the increase in crash risk "of low to medium magnitude." That assessment scaled back some of the hyperventilating following the legalization of recreational marijuana. Even government agencies have a hard time saying how marijuana affects motorists. In February 2015, NHTSA released a study on alcohol and drug use among drivers. Once again, they found clear evidence of impairment among drunk drivers, down to the degree. Drug users proved harder to gauge. "At the current time, specific drug concentration levels cannot be reliably equated with a specific degree of driver impairment," the report concluded.
Monday, November 6th, 2017 >Pittsfield man held for allegedly smashing in door of city home in a rage PITTSFIELD — A city man already facing charges has had his bail revoked after allegedly starting to "act crazy out of nowhere" last weekend, damaging a car, kicking in a locked door and smashing a cellphone. Zachary W. Love, 23, faces multiple new charges in addition to charges on two open cases, which include credit card larceny and operating under the influence, from June and July, respectively. Responding to a report of a breaking and entering in progress on John Street about 1:38 am. Saturday, police encountered a witness who said Love had kicked in the door of the apartment and was still inside. The door showed signs of forced entry, police said. Police spoke to Love, who insisted nothing was going on and said the damage from the door was from a previous break-in. Another witness told police that a group including Love had a few drinks earlier and had come back to John Street to hang out. That witness said when the group pulled up to the house, Love began having a "crazy attitude" and accusing a woman in the group, with whom he'd had a relationship, of having received photos from another man, police said. He began hitting the outside of the car with his fists, leaving dents. Once inside the house, Love allegedly took a woman's cellphone and went outside with it, removed its SIM card and smashed it. It was at that point, witnesses said Love was locked out of the house, prompting him to kick in the door to get back inside.When police attempted to take Love into custody, he allegedly resisted and thrashed around to avoid being handcuffed. He pleaded not guilty in Central Berkshire District Court on Monday to three counts of vandalizing property and one count each of felony nighttime breaking and entering, larceny under $250, assault and battery on a police officer and resisting arrest Judge Paul Smyth then revoked Love's bail on charges of operating under the influence, unlicensed operation and threatening to commit a crime July. He set a nominal bail of $50 on the new charges. He is due back in court on Nov. 28 for a pretrial hearing.

"The road to World War I was paved with struggles that continue to impact our world today," said Doran Cart, senior curator at the Liberty Memorial, in announcing a new exhibit in advance of the centennial of that conflict.
"Road to War: World Power and Imperialism 1904-1914" includes objects as well as photographs and other materials that shed light on the state of the world in that era. Other factors that led to the war included colonialism, nationalism and a global arms race.
"The world is overloaded and overarmed," proclaimed The London Economist less than a year before the war began with the assassination of Austrian Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo on June 28, 1914.
The new exhibit at the Liberty Memorial is included with museum admission and runs through April 20 next year.
Among the objects on display is the uniform of a servant in an elite Bavarian household, including red velvet breeches.
The display also includes a Japanese infantry uniform from the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-05 and a medal commemorating Belgium's annexation of Congo in 1909.
The exhibit draws on the Liberty Memorial's extensive collection as well as those of other museums and sources. Some items have never been displayed at the memorial before.
Four of the eight members named so far to the 12-person World War I Centennial Commission, which was created by Congress to coordinate centennial activities, have Kansas City connections. They include mortgage banker James B. Nutter Sr. and Mary Davidson Cohen, chairwoman of the board of trustees of the Liberty Memorial Association.
They also include James S. Whitfield of Independence, a Navy veteran of World War II who has held several posts in the American Legion, and Richard Kolb, editor in chief of the VFW magazine, based in Kansas City.
Other members are U.S. Rep. Ted Poe of Texas; Jerry L. Hester, former president of Interdyne Corp.; Thomas Moe, a retired Air Force colonel; and Phillip C. Peckman, owner of Peckman Outdoor Media.

PETER Cronin-Hill is right to worry about the future of Kent's libraries (letters, January 14). A consultation has started about transferring all of Kent's 99 libraries to a trust. You can get details of what is being proposed at Whitstable library or online at www.kent.gov.uk. Please make sure that you use the form available to tell the county council what you think of its proposal.
The council says it's a "modernisation", but my research has shown that many trusts elsewhere in England have led to library cuts, closures and over-use of volunteer staff. That sounds like a backward step to me. My big worry is that a trust will be unaccountable to the people of Kent — if we complain to our county councillors about a library matter they will just say they can't do anything about it. Mike Hill, the councillor responsible for libraries, has already stated that it will be up to the trust to decide whether or not to keep all Kent's libraries open!
I am also worried that a trust will no longer be covered by Freedom of Information so it will be even harder for residents to fmd out how decisions have been made about our libraries. And if the trust fails, then where will we be? Of course, coundillors also say it's about money. Well, the library service is almost the last thing we all share across Kent and we have free access to the same service. We ought to be able to maintain these centres for learning and enjoyment that enhance community well-being. It should be a priority, too, for our elected representatives to make the libraries even better for future generations. None of the councillors said they were going to give away our libraries in their manifestos. Now they are asking us to have faith in an unknown, unelected trust.
I feel very uneasy about that. If you do, please make sure you say that in your response to the consultation. Finally, National Libraries Day is on Saturday, February 7. Please join a gathering outside Whitstable library at 1O.3Oam. We can celebrate our library discuss KCC's proposal with other residents and encourage more local people to respond to the consultation.

HomeCambodia Train GuideAsia TrainsThailand Trains
Thailand's railway network has 4,070 km of passenger train track making it much larger than Cambodia's network of 612 km of track. Thailand also operates a lot more train services. Thailand has over 400 functional locomotives compared to Cambodia's 17.
Train Services in Thailand
Thailand has 5 major inter provincial train routes, all fanning out from Bangkok. Most, but not all, of the country is accessible by train making train travel a great way to tour Thailand. There are a wide variety of different types of train services in Thailand, many of which are extremely cheap to use with ticket prices strictly controlled by the Thai government making train travel an affordable option for lower income earners. Food and drink vendors often come onto trains in Thailand to sell their wares creating a market like atmosphere in train carriages which is one of the distinctive characteristics of travelling around by train, along with the professionalism and good humour of the employees of the State Railway of Thailand.
Trains at Bangkok Railway Station
There are 6 basic seat types on trains in Thailand:
1st Class Sleeper Seats: Single or double sleeper berths in a separate compartment.
2nd Class A/C Sleeper Seats: Seats which transform into upper and lower bunks in shared carriages.
2nd Class A/C Seats: Comfortable seats in an air conditioned carriage.
2nd Class Fan Sleeper Seats: Like 2nd Class A/C Sleeper Seats but in a fan cooled carriage.
2nd Class Fan Seats: Comfortable seats in a fan cooled carriage.
3rd Class Seats: Bench style seats in a fan cooled carriage.
Ticket prices range from the equivalent of around $50 USD for long distance journeys in a 1st Class Sleeper Seat to around $3 USD for the same journey in a 3rd Class Seat.
Popular Train Journeys in Thailand
The most popular train journeys for tourists in Thailand are the long distance journeys on the Northern Line and the Southern Line, although there are some shorter distance services which are popular because of the scenery on route. Train travel in Thailand is only slightly cheaper than flying and often more expensive and slower than taking a bus. However, a major benefit of travelling by train in Thailand is the availability of sleeper berths which make it comfortable to travel overnight and arrive at the destination in the morning, giving tourists more time to enjoy where ever they are visiting and saving on the cost of a night in a hotel.
2nd Class Air Conditioned carriage on a Thailand Train
There are three routes in particular which are very popular with visitors to Thailand:
Bangkok to Chiang Mai: An 11 and 14 hour journey from the capital city to the main city in the Northern Region of Thailand, Chiang Mai. This journey is best done in the day time because of the fantastic scenery on route.
Bangkok to Surat Thani: Surat Thani is the connection point for ferry services to Koh Samui and Koh Phangan, as well as the closest point to Krabi and Phuket you can reach on the Thai railway network. This 9 to 13 hour journey is best travelled overnight to coincide with onward connections the following morning to the islands or the West Coast of Thailand.
Bangkok to Kanachanburi: A charming, but basic, train service lasting 2 hours 30 minutes and travelling through picturesque scenery to the town of Kanchanaburi, which is the location of the famous 'Bridge over the River Kwai'.

A Closer Look at the Latin American Women that Could Lead the UN
BY Guy Edwards | July 11, 2016
In a packed field of candidates, Christiana Figueres' climate leadership could be a boon to her candidacy for UN Secretary-General.
UNclimatechange (flickr) December 7, 2015
Christiana Figueres doesn't drink coffee. The Costa Rican told AQ that despite hailing from a major exporter of the world's favorite bean, she bounces around perfectly well without it. After witnessing her formidable leadership as head of the UN Climate Change Secretariat for the past six years, it is hard to disagree.
On July 5, Figueres concluded her tenure as Executive Secretary of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, where she helped secure the adoption of the Paris Agreement last December. Just two days later her candidacy for UN Secretary-General was officially launched in San José at an event attended by Costa Rican President Luis Guillermo Solís.
Figueres enters a packed field with 11 other candidates already brandishing their credentials and embarking on intense lobbying. But despite the crowded field, she is a strong contender for the post.
As various crises rock the world, highlighting the often impotent response of the international community, Figueres has proven she can deliver positive results for multilateralism. Her invaluable role in facilitating the adoption of the Paris Agreement by 195 countries last year was one of her crowning achievements.
Moreover, the Paris Agreement, which overlaps considerably with the Sustainable Development Goals, illustrates the growing global consensus around the need to reconcile the pursuit of prosperity with the reality of climate change and a finite planet; a realization that could bolster her candidacy.
Then there's her management experience. Following Figueres' appointment to the climate change secretariat in 2010, she successfully took over the running of an organization traumatized by the chaos of the 2009 Copenhagen climate negotiations, which failed to produce a new climate agreement. Figueres demonstrated her resolve, rebuilding the confidence of the organization and its roughly 500 employees through her positive leadership and emphasis on teamwork. She redefined the position with her energy, enthusiasm and dedication to making the case for climate action, as well as her willingness to speak out publicly about the need for greater collective ambition from all countries.
Figueres is held in high regard by hundreds working on climate change in the diplomatic, civil society and business communities due, in part, to her ability to bring different people and sectors together. These leaders may serve as useful allies as she attempts to quickly build support for her candidacy, especially among individuals and organizations who see climate change as a priority for the next Secretary-General.
Figueres' background and experience on security and peace could simultaneously help and hinder her bid. In the same way that Costa Rica's robust global green image helped legitimize her term as head of the UNFCCC, her country's image as a peaceful, neutral nation without a standing army could also pay a dividend in this race.
Conversely, her limited experience on security issues or commanding UN peacekeeping operations compared to her rivals – such as Argentine Foreign Minister Susana Malcorra, who has served both as Ban Ki-moon's chief-of-staff and as chief of logistics for UN peacekeeping missions – is seen as a weakness, especially with the increasing threat of international terrorism and the ongoing refugee crisis.
Historical precedent could also harm Figueres' chances. There is an informal consensus that the next Secretary-General should hail from an Eastern European country, which would be a first for the 70-year-old UN.
However, the real struggle will be winning support from the five permanent members of the UN Security Council – the U.S., China, Russia, France and Britain – which hold veto power. She will also need to win over Latin America. Brazil is likely to support Argentina's Malcorra given both countries' membership in MERCOSUR. Mexico also appears to favor Malcorra following her successful visit to Mexico this year.
The geopolitics of who secures top UN post will only intensify as the permanent members jockey for their preferred candidate. Russia favors an Eastern European but the ongoing crisis in Ukraine may lead to a stalemate between Russia and the Western permanent members.
While Malcorra has received backing from both the White House and U.S. national security adviser, Susan Rice, Britain is unlikely to support her given the ongoing tensions over the Falkland Islands/Islas Malvinas. With Figueres now in the race, it's possible that both the U.S. and France could decide to back her given that both President Barack Obama and President François Hollande hope to secure favorable legacies on climate change.
The Security Council will hold its first straw poll to test the viability of candidatures on July 21. Once the Security Council settles on a single candidate, it will make its recommendation to the General Assembly, which will formerly make the appointment. The victor will replace Ban Ki-moon on January 1, 2017. However, given the number of candidates, it is possible that a final selection might not be made until October.
In her vision statement, Figueres described how the Paris Agreement was not an accident, but rather the result of a collective realization that "we would all be losers if we did not find a way to win together."
The international community agrees that climate change must be tackled to build a more prosperous, resilient and secure future. The increasing threat it poses to global security could ensure that Figueres emerges as one of the favorites.

Remember, ALL Creation—the Omniverse at all levels—is Cosmic Energy, which was sent forth from the Heart-Core of the Supreme Creator. This Energy is composed of vibrational frequencies of infinite variations, which interpenetrate with each other, and yet are separated from each other by the variance in Light frequency patterns. The Light/Energy of the Creator contains all the components of Creation, and these innumerable Seeded Patterns of Light make up the complexity of the many levels of material manifestation. The terms used to describe the multiple levels of Creation, such as "Dimensions and Sub-Dimensions," are used to bring clarity and understanding of the very complex nature of the reality in which all Creation exists.
Most of the advanced Souls who have incarnated within the last fifty or so years came in with their Third-Dimensional Soul Fragments already harmonized and integrated, and many came in with a good portion of their Fourth-Dimensional Fragments integrated as well. These precious Souls are the ones who agreed to sink into the density of the Third-/Fourth-Dimensional illusional density so they could become the Vanguard /Wayshowers who would lead the Way onto the upward spiraling Path into the entry realms of the Fifth Kingdom. As these brave Light Bearers are lifted up, so are the Earth and all humanity.
At the end of the Fourth-Dimensional stage, the many Fragments or Soul extensions of your Soul-Self from within the Third/Fourth Dimensions will have returned to the center of origin within your Diamond Core God Cell. Your goal is to become a living, consciously integrated, Soul-infused personality. A Soul-inspired mind seeks and conveys illumination. Over time, you will tap into your higher, intuitive nature, which will assist you in developing a more refined and expansive perception. A completion of the Fourth Stage of Evolution will result in a fusion of Love/Intelligence between the Soul and the personality.
Yes, it is possible to achieve this spiritual state of Soul-awareness while in the physical vessel. At this time, many StarSeed Souls are close to accomplishing this goal. It will become a common occurrence over the next twenty or so years, and the Ascension of humanity will accelerate throughout this century. This unique phase of Ascension was designed to be a "Group Ascension," whereby groups of specialized Souls, which came forth together into this Sub-Universe, are gradually reuniting. Your journey into separation is complete, and you are joining together once more as you begin this amazing adventure back into the higher realms of Light and life.
A Self-master is responsive to the surrounding environment, while being the observer of mundane life experiences from a higher vantage point. You will learn what it means to "Be in the world, but not of it." The Soul's nature is love; therefore, you will begin to experience abounding joy and radiant love from within your Heart/Soul. You will still experience personal and physical distress; however, you will have the wisdom and the tools to transcend it. The Soul's main purpose for incarnating in a body is not to learn; its desire is to experience. Within Its original realm, the Soul has Cosmic Consciousness. The Soul assumes a physical vessel in order to experience physicality, and in that state of Being It seeks realization and understanding via various degrees of physical brain consciousness. The main purpose of a Soul-infused personality is to become proficient in bringing down, into the physical Plane, the highest frequencies of God-Consciousness that he/she can embody and radiate out into the world. This results in illumination and Self-mastery.
While in a physical vessel, within this solar system, and during these times of transformation, your return journey from materiality involves experiencing and harmonizing the various Sub-Dimensional levels of sentience–or what has been designated as STAGES OF CONSCIOUS AWARENESS–which necessitate correcting and harmonizing of various negative thought forms of consciousness within the many Soul fragments you have created down through the ages. In doing so, you are gradually integrating these precious Facets of yourself. Over time, on this journey of Ascension, you will integrate all of the lower-frequency Soul Fragments you have created. And you are now in the process of downloading, via your Soul Star, all of the higher-frequency Facets of Soul-consciousness.
The collective mass consciousness of humanity created the lower three dimensional levels, which are the Astral Planes of the Fourth Dimension, and this is where most of humanity exists mentally until they gradually begin to turn inward and listen to the nudgings of their Higher Soul Self. The ego-desire personality is the master manipulator of this realm, and it constantly urges one to seek more satisfaction and happiness via sensation and acquisition. When the Fourth-Dimensional stage of awareness is almost completed, you connect with your Sacred Triad, via the Antakarana, which is a direct stream of Life/Light from your God-Seed Atom. At that time, a Memory-Seed Atom, stored within the Root chakra at the base of the spine, gradually begins to spiral up through the Light Rod of Power, along the spinal column, and then anchors within the Pineal Gland. This, in turn, will activate another Memory Seed Atom of higher awareness—your new Divine Blueprint for the coming age—within the Pineal Gland.
You will begin to tap into your inner power potential as you move into the higher sub-levels of the Fourth Dimension. Matter becomes more fluid, and therefore, it becomes easier to manifest what you desire. That is why you must learn to be decisive and to focus your thoughts with clear intention. A disciplined mind links the chains of thought together in a proper order. It is vitally important for you to understand that scattered thoughts are detrimental to your progress. Living in the present moment—in the NOW moment—is a critical component in attaining Self-mastery. Mental effort is required in order to successfully traverse the path of illumination.
Gradually, a good portion of your memory of past events will begin to fade as you move out of the realm of the instinctual brain/mind into the realms of the cosmic stream of knowledge and your Sacred Mind. Important traits of a Self-master are focused observational abilities and harmlessness in thought, word, and deed. As an aspirant on the Path, greater and greater cosmic truths will be revealed to you. However, you should be aware that the lesser principles of ageless wisdom will constantly be expanded to incorporate the unique rules, laws and truths of the next level of existence in the never-ending cycle of Ascension in consciousness.
It is important that you not run away from "unfinished business," but stay in your present environment (circumstances) while you are deciding what your "destiny passion" is (or what your next step into Self-awareness is to be). You must resolve and harmonize the major issues that remain within your auric field—the old business at hand. In other words, if your home life is in chaos, or if you are dissatisfied in the work place or in any of your personal relationships, there is inner work to be done before you can manifest harmony and balance in your outer world.
The greatest thing that is holding everyone back from attaining Self-mastery and claiming the beauty, bounty, joy, peace and harmony—which is the Divine Birthright for all humanity—is fear. Fear of failure; fear of the unknown; fear of success, and of moving out of the comfort zone of your present existence.
My brave Bearers of the Light, at one level, the collective consciousness of humanity has moved deeper into a sense of separation, fear of violence, and anxiety about what the future holds. However, there is another band of human collective consciousness that is becoming predominant, for this one is growing in strength exponentially day-by-day. This overlay of consciousness is permeated with unconditional love, hope, desire for peace and harmony amongst all human kind. We tell you that the second band of consciousness—the band of Light—is and will overcome the shadows of fear and separation. The progression of the cosmos in the evolutionary spiral for the return to higher consciousness among all the Facets of Creation will not be delayed or denied. You are truly beginning to understand, and the yearning within is growing stronger and more compelling as you reach higher and higher on your personal sacred journey. In the beginning of this Sub-Universal journey, we were in perfect rapport and finely attuned one with another. Together, we are slowly but surely returning to that beautiful state of Oneness.

There hasn't been a lot happening in the garden in January in terms of seed sowing. The real action starts in a few months time. But by now, a lot of the gardeners out there are starting to get a little stir crazy. Longing to be outside. So I've compiled a list of a few things you can start sowing now.
A lot of onion varieties grown from seed can be started indoors from the end of January onwards. They can also be sown directly into their final resting place later on in the year. An alternative to sowing onions from seed is to purchase onion sets. These are small onion bulbs that are planted out to mature.
There are a few varieties of leek that you can sow indoors from now onwards. The variety I'm growing this year, Lyon, can be sown from the beginning of January! As with onions they can also be sown directly into the soil later in the year.
Not many tomatoes can be started now. Most are February/March sowing but if you look carefully you will find some. For example the Alicante variety I am growing this year can be sown indoors from January.
A lot of chilli varieties can be started from the beginning of February indoors. The particular jalapeno chillies I'm growing this year can be started in January. There are tons of different chillies to choose from ranging from sweet to fiery hot so I'd definitely recommend giving some a go.
There is always a few varieties of salad leaves that can be grown, there are even some that can be grown all year round!
I'm pleased to say I got a few hours to myself in the garden the weekend before last. I managed to get 4 leeks, 4 tomato and 2 chilli pots planted up – this might not seem like a lot but I am very limited in space. And a few things are going to be grown in succession so that they don't go to waste, I didn't want to go overboard.
Leeks; Lyon – I planted the leek seeds in toilet roll tubes – 1 seed per tube. These will be transplanted straight to their spot in the raised bed once they're big enough. Being planted in toilet roll tubes makes this process a lot easier as they are biodegradable. A few small cuts into the toilet roll tube to help it decompose and pop all of it into the new hole.
Tomato; Alicante – If you've read previous posts you'll know I was planning on growing gardeners delight this year. Unfortunately the seed packet only had a few seeds in it and I managed to drop them in the greenhouse…so Alicante it is! The tomato seeds got a slightly larger sturdy pot each. I'll probably re-pot them a few times until they end up in their final home.
Chilli; Jalapeno – As I only really want one chilli plant of this variety (it's only my OH that eats them really) I only planted up two pots. I did however put two seeds in each pot as I wasn't completely convinced one would germinate as the seeds are a little old.
Tomato and chillies got pride of place the heated propagator in the windowsill. Leeks are fighting it out in the greenhouse for the time being. I'm not sure the leeks will be successful this way but I thought it was worth a try.
What are you sowing right now?


- Nose: intense, complex, nuanced nose. Start aromas dominate its aging that gradually give way to a red and black fruit ripeness followed your every nuance, balsamic, spicy, roasted, smoked meeting you want to go as it evolves in the glass.
- Palate: An expressive red wine, balanced, complex, well-structured, long and very pleasant. A round Ribera del Duero.

Q: How to disable Hiera debug output in rspec-puppet test I have the following spec file
require 'spec_helper'

describe 'PLC', :type => 'class' do

  let(:hiera_config) { 'spec/fixtures/hiera/hiera.yaml' }
  hiera = Hiera.new({ :config => 'spec/fixtures/hiera/hiera.yaml' })

  abc = hiera.lookup('PLC::PLC_LINE',nil,nil)

  let(:hiera_data) {{
    :PLC_LINE => abc
  }}

  it{ should contain_file('/test/rspec/etc/PLC').with(
        'ensure'  => 'file',
        'owner'   => 'root',
        'group'   => 'root',
        'mode'    => '0644',
        'require' => 'File[/test/rspec/etc]') }

  it{ should contain_file('/test/rspec/etc/PLC').with_PLC_LINE(abc)}

end

below is my /hiera/fixtures/plc.yaml
plc : puppetlab

when I run rake spec, the following messages get printed:
DEBUG: Wed Jul 08 07:11:55 -0400 2015: Hiera YAML backend starting

DEBUG: Wed Jul 08 07:11:55 -0400 2015: Looking for data source plc

How can this output be suppressed?

A: Just put into e.g. spec_helper.rb following:
Puppet::Util::Log.level = :warning

On client you can easily check the log_level:
puppet config print log_level --section agent

You can modify this in e.g. /etc/puppet/puppet.conf (depend on path to your configs):
[agent]
log_level = info

The integrin and extracellular matrix protein (ECM)-mediated adhesion and invasion of the receptive maternal uterine endometrium by trophoblasts is a critical event in the complex physiological process of pregnancy. Although the process has been largely characterized in mice, the relevant mechanism in primates remains unclear. We investigated the expression patterns and dynamic alterations of integrin subunits (α1, α5, α6, β1, and β4) and their ECM ligands, such as laminin (LN), type IV collagen (Col IV), and fibronectin (FN), at the maternal-fetal interface during Gestational Days 15, 25, 50, and 100 and at full term in 20 pregnant rhesus monkeys. Immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization revealed that a relatively high expression of integrins occurred in trophoblast cells at Gestational Day 15, with the peak level occurring at Day 25. The expression level decreased from Day 50 to term. Along the invasive pathway, expression levels of integrin α1, α5, and β1 subunits were gradually elevated from the proximal to distal column, reaching peak level in the trophoblast shell, but were reduced in those invasive extravillous cytotrophoblast (EVCT) cells in contact with the decidua. Integrin α1, α5, β1, and β4 subunits were also highly expressed in decidual stromal cells and moderately expressed in the maternal epithelium and endothelium. Immunoreactive FN, LN, and Col IV were distributed in EVCT and decidual stromal cells and part of the uterine epithelial and endothelial cells. These data suggest that the correlated expression of integrins and their ECM ligands at the maternal-fetal interface might be involved in regulation of cell proliferation and differentiation and the counterbalanced invasion-accelerating and invasion-restraining processes in trophoblast cells during the early stage of pregnancy.
