"Military-Friendly" is a badge of honor you see thrown around a lot these days. From awards in magazines and newspapers, to marketing campaigns and job fairs, every company claims to be a military supporter. But what the heck does "military-friendly" really mean? Too often, it's a military discount, free appetizer, or promise to hire a wildly large number of veterans that gets companies recognized, instead of meaningful efforts to impact our community and hire and retain veteran talent.


From collection to result, a drug test specimen takes a journey of carefully plotted steps in a well-orchestrated process. Our professional collectors emphasize a positive experience for an individual taking a drug test, while our laboratory teams execute the highest standards of quality.
In our recent webinar, The Life of a Drug Test, two Quest experts took us behind the scenes to reveal how many moving parts have to work in concert to deliver accurate, dependable test results. Employers, human resource professionals, Designated Employer Representatives (DER), safety and compliance managers, as well as donors, can benefit from their insights.
It is not one size fits all. We hope the perspectives of a scientist and a specimen collector helped to simplify the complexities of drug testing and illustrated the importance of working with a laboratory provider with the resources and the reputation of reliably screening applicants and employees to help keep your workforce drug-free.

What you put into your body is what you get out of it, so before you take your next bite remember – you are what you eat! So…What's Good for you?
White fruits and vegetables take their 'colour' from pigments called anthoxanthins, these contain health promoting chemicals such as allicin which may help lower cholesterol and blood pressure as well as supporting healthy immune function. Sufficient servings of white foods also boost the body's natural potassium levels which also boost and support nerve and muscle function.
Orange and yellow fruits and vegetables contain antioxidants, carotenoids and other essential vitamins. Regular servings of orange and yellow produce can help improve eyesight, boost immunity; are great for skin, and are essential for growth and development.
Green leafy veggies and bright green fruit contain powerful phytochemicals such as indoles. Green produce are high in essential vitamins, which support cell health, help to reduce cancer risk, maintain healthy liver function and increase immunity.
Red fruits and vegetables house essential phyto-nutrients and antioxidants such as lycopene which can assist in stimulating communication between cells and decreasing abnormal cell growth. Sufficient servings of reds support heart health and cardiovascular function.
Blue and purple fruits and vegetables contain health enhancing flavonoids, phytochemicals and antioxidants. Ensuring a sufficient serving of these items supports health, reduces inflammation, encourages digestion, boosts levels of vitamin C and fibre and provides an excellent source of antioxidants.


Startling footage has emerged showing a woman smashing up her ex-husband's expensive SUV while their terrified children scream inside the vehicle.
Viewers have been shocked by the image of the woman in a fit of overwhelming rage, shattering the windows of the SUV to smithereens.
In the process, she showered her small children – aged just three and five – with fragments of broken glass.
Her former husband caught the entire terrifying ordeal on camera, and can be heard pleading with his former lover to be careful of the 'babies'.
The unnamed woman is believed to have been consumed with jealousy as she whacked the vehicle multiple times with a long handled hammer, showing no concern for the safety of others.
At the end of the video, the menacing mother is shown to remove the tiny boy and girl from the back seats. Horrifyingly, one of the children appears to have a cut on their arm as a result of the vicious assault.
According to the description on the uploaded YouTube clip, it was expected that the violent woman would be handed in to the authorities for questioning. However, for unknown reasons this has not occurred.
We don't know what went on between the unhappy ex-couple but we just hope they leave the kids out of harm's way in the future.

Charlamagne Tha God Wasn't Okay With Conor McGregor Calling Floyd Mayweather "Boy''
July 13, 2017 - 10:48 am by Shenequa Golding TWITTER
"I'm using this as a teachable moment to my Caucasian cousins to keep y'all out of trouble. I don't think Conor McGregor is racist. I think he simply doesn't know."
Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor will finally duke it out in the ring together for the world to finally decide which fighter is the better man with better hands. During the first of four press conferences held on Tuesday (July 11), both contenders sized each other up and talked the most sh*t humanly possible. The Irishmen made a comment to Mayweather that made a few folks raise their eyebrow.
"Dance for me boy! Dance for me!" McGregor said.
While some may have missed or dismissed the language McGregor used, Power 105.1 FM's Charlamagne Tha God did not, which is why he gave the mixed-martial arts fighter the title of "Donkey of The Day."
"Now there's a lot of layers to this and I'm using this as a teachable moment to my Caucasian cousins to keep y'all out of trouble. I don't think Conor McGregor is racist, I think he simply doesn't know."
The Black Privilege author made sure to specify that McGregor calling Mayweather "boy" wasn't as bad as using the N-word, but the word "boy" is a not distant cousin to the racial slur, and has been used historically to diminish a black man's manhood.
"I would say that when a white person calls you 'boy,' that's not quite the N-word, but it's closer to monkey. If the N-word is a 10, monkey is a nine so 'boy' is probably like an eight," The Breakfast Club co-host said. "You may not think 'boy' means anything, but you've never heard boy from a racist bigot cr***er-ass cr***er from down south."
Charlamagne then played audio of what sounded like a southern white man using the word 'boy' to further illustrate his point. But what made McGregor's comments worse wasn't that he called Mayweather 'boy,' it was also that he instructed Mayweather to dance, which only added more to the racial insensitivity of the comment.
"If anything, Floyd got you dancing Conor because you would never be getting that kind of payday if it weren't for him," Uncle Charla said.
The fight, slated for Aug. 26 in Las Vegas, will air on Showtime for a reported $99. Now if you know Charlamagne you know besides him being successful, he can also be frugal as all get out. Charlamagne said he is by no means paying for it, but after McGregor's comments hopes that Mayweather takes the W.

Dr. Dre was released from L.A. Cedars Sinai Medical Center on Friday (Jan. 15), nearly two weeks after he suffered a reported brain aneurysm. Ice T confirmed the news tweeting, "Just FaceTimed with @drdre. He just made it home. Safe and looking good."
The 55-year-old music mogul will remain under 24-hour care for the next few weeks as medical professionals continue to monitor his progress. Doctors are still unclear on what caused the aneurysm.
Dre's hospital release comes days after new details were revealed in his divorce from estranged wife, Nicole Young. According to court documents publicized this week, Nicole accuses Dre, birth name Andre Young, of putting a gun to her head in 2000 and 2001. She also details other alleged abuse incidents in 1995 (before they were married) and in 2016, when he allegedly punched her in the face and kicked down her door.
The Grammy winner has denied Nicole's abuse claims.
Nicole and Dre tied the knot in 1996. The pair share two adult children, Truice and Truly. Nicole filed for divorce last summer.
In addition to demanding that Dre cover her legal fees, Nicole wants the court to take the abuse allegations into account when "awarding support and fees." Dre has already agreed to pay $500,000 of Nicole's legal bills and $2 million in temporary spousal support.

Cardi B is making her way back to the big screen. The Bronx native officially landed her first leading role in the upcoming Paramount comedy, Assisted Living.
According to Variety, Cardi will play a small time crook struggling to find a hiding place after her latest heist fails. Her character, "Amber," disguises herself as an elderly woman and hides out at her grandmother's nursing home. The film is described as a "raucous comedy" similar to Mrs. Doubtfire and Sister Act.
Paramount acquired the rights to Assisted Living in 2019. The film's script was penned by This Is Us writer, Kay Oyegun.
Cardi, 28, made her film debut in the 2019 celeb-heavy stripper flick, Hustlers. The "WAP" rapper appears to have hinted at her Assisted Living role in a recent interview with Billboard where she dished on filming scenes for Fast & Furious 9.
"After 'Hustlers' I filmed a little bit for 'Fast & Furious' so I felt like 'I'm ready for this,' I knew what to expect," she explained. "But the characters were a little different so I was like 'Oh wow, I'm going to need more acting classes.' I'm planning on doing a movie this year and I'm going to be the lead role so I'm like 'I need to execute this flawlessly.'"
Besides film, Cardi was a judge on the Netflix completion show, Rhythm & Flow, and landed her own Facebook Watch series, Cardi Tries.

Wendy Williams Reveals She Was Date Raped By '80s R&B Singer
Wendy Williams revealed that she was date raped by '80s R&B singer, Sherrick, early in her radio career. The talk show host shared the story with reporters while promoting her Lifetime biopic Wendy Williams: The Movie on Tuesday (Jan. 12).
"He mesmerized me with his twinkling eyes," she recalled. "He flipped the interview around to where he was interviewing me — I was just gaga over this man and he asked me to go to an album release party with him that night.
"Before the party, I was date raped by him," said Williams.
Sherrick, born Lamotte Smith, was a member of the group Kagny, whose song is featured on The Last Dragon soundtrack. He signed to Warner Bros. Records in 1987 and scored a marginal hit with the single "Just Call" off his debut self-titled album. Sherrick struggled with sobriety but declared himself "drug-free" before dying of unknown causes in 1999.
Williams says that she was raped in Sherrick's Washington D.C. hotel room and it, unfortunately, wasn't her first time being sexually assaulted. The New Jersey native had been date raped in college. "Those types of things happen to girls all the time and they've been happening a lot, to a lot of our mothers, grandmothers, great-grandmothers, and their great-great-grandmothers too."
From the sounds of it, Sherrick's widow doesn't exactly believe Williams' story. She not only questioned Williams' account but wondered why she waited so long to go public, and why she didn't call police at the time of the incident.
"As I will never minimize or dismiss the horrid actions of sexual assault, I am saddened that Ms. Williams feels the need to publicly make these allegations when the man she is accusing is no longer on this earth to defend himself," Lynne Conner Smith said in a statement to Page Six. "Our family does not know Ms. Williams and are not aware of any relationship or encounter they may have had."
The sexual assault will be chronicled in the film, as well as other details from Williams' life -- like her rise to talk show fame, her battle with drug addiction, and marriage to ex-husband Kevin Hunter.
Wendy Williams: The Movie premieres on Lifetime on Jan. 30.

Edit #1 See http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6434148 - seems to be a JDK bug. Any known workarounds? None are listed on the bug entry page.

A: After doing some Googling on bugs.sun.com, this looks like this might be a JDK bug that was only fixed in JDK 6.
See http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6434148

A: Same exception had got thrown when i had upgraded java verion and db visualizer dint support jre7. and since
Support for Java 7 was introduced in DbVisualizer 8.0 for Windows and Linux/UNIX.
Support for Java 7 on Mac OS X was introduced in DbVisualizer 9.1.
So Solution that worked for me :
Windows/Unix/Linux:
    In the DbVisualizer installation directory there is an .install4j directory,
    In this directory create a file named pref_jre.cfg if it doesn't already exist,
    Open the file in a text editor,
    Add the complete path to the root directory for the Java installation you want to use.
    Example: C:\Program Files\Java\jre7

A: java.lang.ClassCastException: javax.swing.KeyStroke cannot be cast to java.lang.Comparable....

If you are getting above error after installing java 7 in dbviz
then add Environment variabbles like:
'DBVIS_JAVA_HOME' as a 'Variable Name' and java path like
for ex. "C:\SWDTOOLS\IBM\RAD85\runtimes\base_v7\java"

Windows Phone App Review: RT News, the official Russia News app
Paul Acevedo
Russia Today, the state-sponsored news network, is basically Russia's answer to the BBC. The Russia Today TV channel is the second-most watched foreign news channel in the US, and the Russia Today website RT.com (which makes me think of Retweeting) is available in English and several other languages.
In April, an indie developer named Jampot published an RSS reader for Windows Phone named Russia Today. That app leaves much to be desired since the links simply open up in the phone's web browser. Now the real Russia Today team has released an official app entitled RT News. Why they didn't ask for the previous app to be removed so they could use its name I don't know – perhaps it seemed like too much trouble. At any rate, it's great that we have an official app now, but it still has plenty of room for improvement.
Bunches of news
RT News allows readers to browse and read current stories from RT.com. Each category gets its own page, which you can change by swiping left or right, Metro, I mean, 'Windows 8 style.' Categories include: Latest News, Sport, Business, USA, Politics, Art and Culture, Sci-Tech, News, and Favorites (where user Favorites are displayed). Any category can be disabled in the Settings menu, making it easy to browse only topics of interest.
On the downside, the actual page switching is a bit rough compared to other apps I've used. When you first launch the app, switching between pages is slow, as each page appears blank until its headlines load up. The headlines should really load in the background rather than waiting until the user swipes to that page, which makes for a more interrupted experience. There is also a minor but visible white seem between the black areas at the top of each page. Less minor: the Art and Culture headline I wider than the page itself, so the letter 'e' on Culture gets cut off. That's what the ampersand is for, folks!
RT News' story-reading experience has its ups and downs. The text can be toggled between two different sizes, both of which are easier to read on my Samsung Focus. Compared to reading them in the Windows Phone web browser, the app winds hands-down thanks to text size, column width, and the lack of ads.
Many other aspects of the reading experience could use some work though. In the 'sometimes a problem' category, the app only displays the header image of each story, excluding any subsequent images. That's a nuisance in photo-oriented stories like this one, but for many others it wouldn't be an issue. Similarly, stories with videos come out a bit odd. A single video gets embedded at the top of the story. Tap it to play, but there's no way to view the video in fullscreen.
Text formatting is worse than usual as well. Now, Windows Phone 7 does not make it easy to display a variety of formatted text (our own app doesn't show italics, for instance), so I'm not calling RT News out for that. But things like quotation marks and apostrophes in the first paragraph of each article just show up as little boxes. Oddly enough, those same important punctuation marks display within the bodies of some stories after the second paragraph, but fail to show up in others. The lack of punctuation made an article composed mostly of quotes much harder to follow than it should be. The devs need to work on those punctuation issues, as they drive someone like me crazy.
One missing feature I'd like to see is a way to search for individual stories. Articles old enough not to show up in a category's list that also haven't been saved to the user's Favorites list simply can't be viewed. Also, adding more languages beyond English would be good.
I'm not going to judge whether people living outside of Russia should be relying on a state-sponsored media outlet for news. Hopefully readers are aware of that country's political goings-on and know when to take Russia news' stories with a grain of salt. Russia Today certainly does provide a lot of news from within that country's borders as well as a Russian perspective on world news, facilitating better understanding for us non-Russians.
RT News is a good initial release, allowing regular readers to catch up with the latest stories on their phones. The developers just need to take care of issues like the woeful punctuation rendering, small video size, and slow loading of headline categories in future updates. As long as they do that, RT News will be an invaluable app for fans of the Russia Today news service.
RT News is a free app that clocks in under one megabyte. Get it here on the Marketplace.

Najlepša so jutra je debitantski studijski album koprske glasbene skupine Karamela, ki je izšel leta 1998.

Naslovna skladba albuma, za katero je glasbo prispeval Marino Legovič, besedilo pa Drago Mislej, je bila leta 1999 nominirana za zlatega petelina v kategoriji za najboljšo rock skladbo.

Ozadje
Skupina Karamela je bila ustanovljena leta 1982, razpadla pa je leta 1990. V prvem obdobju delovanja je spremljala številne znane jugoslovanske izvajalce kot so Josipa Lisac, Zdenka Kovačiček, Dado Topić, Janez Bončina, ... Pred koncem delovanja je skupina pripravila posnetke za izdajo albuma, a je prišlo do nesporazumov in člani skupine so se razšli. Leta 1998 je prišlo do obuditve skupine v nekoliko drugačni zasedbi. Marjan Malikovič je tedaj izrazil željo po avtorskem izdelku, za razliko od prvega obdobja, ko je skupina le spremljala izvajalce in skorajda ni ustvarjala avtorske glasbe.

After only having attended the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival on Saturday, it was quite a shock to attend on Sunday this year. I expected it to be a bit slower, but to still run into a sea of people. We arrived about an hour early, so I was able to do a full walk through in record time. In all, we were only there for two and a half hours… which I still cannot wrap my head around.
On to the goodies: I did stay strong and I only purchased fiber this year. There were a few moments were I thought about breaking down, one being at the Miss Babs booth. However, I kept it a what is a minimum for me thus far. My first fiber purchase was at the end of our first walk through at the Into the Whirled booth in the Exhibition hall. I wanted to pick up one of the last of their batts and oh so surprisingly ran into a braid of fiber that I couldn't leave behind.
I managed to stay strong as I passed many of my other favorite indie dyers, knowing that I still have some of their fiber in my stash and opted to find some dyers I have been meaning to try out for a while. I knew I had to stop by the Gourmet Stash and Hobbledehoy booths where I fell in love with so many things and seriously had a difficult time resisting buying everything they had.
There is one final goodie that was purchased earlier in the day. This particular item I have been longing to get for almost a year now and is so spectacular it deserves a post of it's own. All I have to say for now is it is one of the best Mother's Day, Christmas and Birthday presents I have ever received and I see great things in our future together.
After spending the holiday season and the beginning of the year cranking out some knitting, I'd been craving some spinning time. In a matter of a couple weeks, I finished spinning four 4-ounce braids of fiber and worked on spinning some punis. The first 4 ounces I had been working on for quite a long time and it took about 3 days worth of spinning time to ply it all. As a quick cleanse and to help relax, I spun another 4 ounces on a Sunday afternoon. I started off with M practicing combining treadling with drafting. When she lost interest, I continued while spinning from the fold (folding the fiber over my index finger) with a long draw technique.
I also started tackling a few items that will help me reach my 2014 goals. First, my Jacob and I became reacquainted. I pulled out the entire fleece and my combs to assess the situation. I may not have finished prepping it during the Ravellenics, but at least now it is out where I will see it everyday and it should be done rather quickly as I will want the floor space in my living room back!
My only problem will be holding myself back from starting to spin it before I'm done combing it all. I do not want to spin any until I know exactly what I want to create. I was thinking of trying to spin it in a way to obtain a tweed look by spinning in the white portions throughout the chocolate brown. However, there is significantly less white to work with. Once I have finished combing it all. I will use some of the chocolate brown to do some sampling to decide how to spin and ply it all.
With the Olympics starting this week, I am only just now trying to decide what to do. Since I have not had the proper amount of time to really plan anything and I already have several projects going, I am not going to officially participate in the Ravellenics. Instead, I'm thinking my goal should be to work on combing my Jocob fleece every day and attempt to finish my mother's sweater (of which I have only knit about 10 rows since casting it on at the end of January).
Though finishing the sweater is a rather lofty goal, I am not going to hold myself to it. I have not done the math to figure out how many rows I need to knit a day in order to complete the sweater by February 23rd. I will just focus on knitting on it every day, either while I'm on the go, or each night after M has gone to bed.
During the 2012 Olympics, I pushed hard to pump out numerous projects and I felt like I could not let myself do anything but knit in order to complete everything on my list. It may have been rewarding to see all those finished objects stacking up, but this year, I want to focus more on enjoying the process. By keeping my knitting goals relaxed, I will still have time and energy to work on combing the fleece as well as some spinning I've been doing since completing the last of my blanket knitting.
Hopefully, the Olympics will keep me motivated to work on these goals and bring me one step closer to accomplishing two of my four major goals for the year!
After struggling to put out a post that captures all of my daughter's enthusiasm towards crafting, I decided to dedicate the majority of this post to photos and videos.
As a single parent, I try to do my best to balance normal toddler activities with my daughter and crafting time. But let's face it, she's growing up in an environment revolved around crafting…. that is the part that isn't revolved around her. Luckily, she really embraces it.
Beyond creating any form of art with craft supplies, she has found that they are some of her new favorite toys for imaginative play. Just last night she decided to dump out all of our buttons and sort them into families, having the buttons talk to each other and "find each other". Little buttons went searching clear across the bed for their moms, dads, brothers and sisters, asking for help from other buttons along the way.
M also partakes in her own knitting during my knitting or spinning time. She often takes out some of "her" yarn and sits with me, pretending to knit. She often creates projects that she's making and let's me know to whom the finished items will go.
That being said, she definitely has a love for a ladybug in our lives – my spinning wheel. Back in the days when I would take a spinning break during her naps on weekends, she would wake up and sneak into my lap, slowly sliding her feet down to the treadles to "help" me. This has now evolved to her going up to my wheel asking to spin. I set it up so that any project I was working on was entirely on the bobbin so she could treadle by herself and nothing would get in the way.
I think her first handspun is beautiful and definitely going in the scrapbook…. though I might be biased.

Food and Economy
Zita Wilks
February11/ 2018
The staples vary little among the groups in Gabon. The groups share a landscape and climate, and thus are able to produce the same kinds of things. Bananas, papayas, pineapples, guavas, mangoes, bushbutter, avocado, and coconuts are the fruits. Eggplants, bitter eggplants, feed corn, sugarcane, peanuts, plantains, and tomatoes are also found. Cassava is the main starch. It is a tuber with little nutritional value, but fills the stomach. Its young leaves are picked and used as a vegetable. Protein comes from the sea and rivers, as well as from bush meat hunted by the men.
Wines are made from palm trees and sugarcane. The palm wine, in conjunction with a hallucinogenic root called eboga, is used during ceremonies for death, healing, and initiation. In small doses, eboga acts as a stimulant, making it useful for all-night ceremonies. In larger quantities, it is hallucinogenic, allowing participants to "see their ancestors." Food and wine are offered to the ancestors during the ceremonies, and both men and women partake in these rituals, which are full of drumming, singing and dancing.
In the villages, the Gabonese are able to provide themselves virtually everything they need. They buy only soap, salt, and medicine. In the cities, however, most of the goods sold are imported and marketed by foreigners. The Gabonese produce enough bananas, plantains, sugar, and soap to export to nearby cities, but 90 percent of the food is imported. West Africans and Lebanese hold title to many of the shops, and women from Cameroon dominate the open markets.
Gabon's currency, the Communaute Financiere Africaine, is automatically converted into French francs, thus giving trading partners confidence in its security. The bulk of the crude oil goes to France, the United States, Brazil, and Argentina. Major export items include manganese, forest products, and oil. Overall, France receives more than one-third of Gabon's exports and contributes half of its imports. Gabon also trades with other European nations, the United States, and Japan.

Q: MySQL using SELECT WHERE Primary Key = XYZ Is it possible to use "Primary Key" instead of a column in a SELECT * WHERE query in MySQL?
Example situation:
table1:
name (P) | surname

table2:
page (P) | content

I have tried (PHP)
SELECT * FROM $table WHERE PRIMARY=$row

and nothing has been returned (despite PHPMyAdmin highlighting it).
I want to do this because I want to make a getDbData function where I only need to specify the table ($table) and the row ($row, row name is primary key's value) for it to return the single row I need.

A: I am guessing that you do not want to supply the name of the primary key, and instead have it selected automatically. In this case, you should first get the primary key's column name, and then make the simple query passing on the primary key's name.
// first query
SELECT k.column_name
FROM information_schema.table_constraints t
JOIN information_schema.key_column_usage k
USING(constraint_name,table_schema,table_name)
WHERE t.constraint_type='PRIMARY KEY'
  AND t.table_schema='YourDatabase'
  AND t.table_name='YourTable';

// second query
SELECT * FROM $table WHERE $primary=$row

where $primary is the column name you got by running the first query.
A better way is to use SHOW KEYS since you don't always have access to information_schema. The following works:
SHOW KEYS FROM table WHERE Key_name = 'PRIMARY'
// Column_name will contain the name of the primary key.

Las Cruces City Council in favor of upgrading White Sands to a national park
Diana Alba Soular
LAS CRUCES - The Las Cruces City Council on Monday OK'd a statement of support encouraging the federal government to upgrade White Sands National Monument to a national park.
The council voted 6-0 in favor of the statement, which calls on lawmakers to pass the proposed White Sands National Park Establishment Act during the 115th Congress, a bill that hasn't yet been introduced.
The large gypsum dune field, located between Las Cruces and Alamogordo, was designated a national monument in 1933.
Raising the profile
Dara Parker, field representative for U.S. Sen. Martin Heinrich, told city councilors the proposed bill would not only turn the monument into a national park, but it also would achieve a land swap of some acreage with White Sands Missile Range and clarify some questions raised by previous congressional actions.
In terms of management and oversight, there's not a great deal of difference between a monument and a national park, Parker told councilors. But national parks do tend have a higher profile than monuments, which could boost tourism, she said.
More:Otero County commission briefed on proposal to make White Sands a national park
More:The Osbournes visit White Sands National Monument
"National parks are perceived to be more prestigious by the traveling public," she said. "Already, White Sands is really important to the local economy."
A National Park Service report of showed that White Sands National Monument attracted nearly 555,800 visitors 2016. They spent an estimated $29.3 million in nearby communities, supporting an estimated 437 jobs, according to the report. The estimated "cumulative benefit" of the monument-related spending was about $33.6 million.
Parker said the spending generated by the monument is an "economist's dream," because much of it is from outside the region and not local dollars recirculating.
Not yet introduced
In addition to the dunes, the monument features animal species that are highly adapted to the unique environment and Ice Age mammal tracks. It's these combined features that, legally, would allow the monument to be upgraded to a park, Parker said.
Parker said WSMR has been cooperating on the details of the proposed bill. And while the agency isn't allowed to take a public stance on the issue, an informal review by a Department of Defense indicated support for the bill.
"The bill hasn't yet been introduced," she told the city council. "We're hoping to introduce it very soon."
Mayor Pro Tem Gill Sorg introduced the measure at Monday's city council meeting.
"New Mexico has so many enchanting areas all across the state," he said. "White Sands National Monument is one of those."
City Councilor Jack Eakman said he's concerned about the proximity of a U.S. Border Patrol checkpoint on U.S. Hwy. 70 near the entrance to White Sands National Monument. He said that could cause foreign visitors to shy away from going to the monument. He asked if there's a way it could be relocated to another place on the highway without interfering with the Border Patrol's work.
Las Cruces City Councilor Gabe Vasquez was absent Monday.
In December 2016, the Doña Ana County Board of County Commissioners passed a measure expressing support for the proposed transition of the monument to a national park. However, within weeks of a newly seated commission taking office Jan. 1, 2017, commissioners rescinded the earlier vote.

Found cold and blue that winter's day.
The river went along its way.
And sun; 'twas found a dimming gold.
Found glinting bright with spots of cold.
Of trees encased within snow.
Found twisted in that mirrored seen.
So beautiful; so clear, pristine.
That river seen, Snohomish fair.


BC's Independent Investigations Office is investigating the shooting that occurred last week near Castlegar.
Feb. 4, 2015 6:00 p.m.
The 39-year-old man shot and killed by RCMP in Castlegar during an attempted traffic stop last week had a history of impaired driving and had received a three-year driving prohibition in February 2012.
According to court records, Waylon Jesse Edey was due in court in Cranbrook on February 15 facing charges of operating a motor vehicle while disqualified, driving while prohibited, and fleeing from police, following an incident on March 11 last year at Moyie.
In March 2011, he was sentenced to 14 days in jail and received a two-year driving ban after admitting to impaired driving in an August 2009 incident at Creston.
In February 2012, he received a 60-day jail sentence and three-year driving prohibition after being convicted of driving while prohibited and failing to provide a breath sample, following an incident at Kaslo in June 2010.
Police shot Edey on the evening of January 29 near the east end of the Kinnaird bridge on Highway 3. He was taken to Kootenay-Boundary Regional Hospital in Trail, but died soon after arriving.
The BC Coroners Service report released on Tuesday stated the man was from Yahk but according to several Kaslo residents, the man was born and raised in Kaslo.
BC's Independent Investigations Office is investigating the shooting. Five investigators travelled to Castlegar last Friday, including a forensic specialist.
According to an information bulletin issued by the IIO, over the weekend the team reviewed the evidence that had been obtained from the scene and interviewed witnesses to the incident. One officer has been designated as a subject officer; one has been designated as a witness officer.
On February 4, Ralph Krenz of the IIO said the team is continuing with their forensic analysis. Krenz said there will be one of two outcomes. If there is no criminal wrong-doing found or determined, a public report with a summary of what happened will be posted on the IIO website. The other outcome would be a report forwarded to the Crown.

CIO Summit- The Evolving Digital Landscape
Anne Marie Walsh
Anne Marie Walsh discusses how the evolving digital landscape is something that poses both one of the greatest challenges and opportunities to the world of work as we know it.
Brightwater Executive were getting their tech on again last week with a visit to the annual CIO summit in Croke Park. As always it proved thought provoking on a number of levels but the pertinent themes to emerge were:
1. Focus on the human experience first and foremost
A lot is bandied about in relation to digital strategy but one of the key themes that emerged from the conference was how digital initiatives need to be designed and delivered in line with customer interactions every step of the way. The theme of IT and tech being a fulcrum to the wider business is something we have seen progressively in Brightwater Executive whereby senior tech candidates are required to have a mix of commercial and customer facing skills whilst coming from a strong technical background themselves. Increasingly IT is seen as central to as opposed to supportive of the wider business.
2. Re-imagining what tech talent really means
A second point which was raised was that often in the hiring process and equally in the education system, there can be too much focus on deep technical skills. Broader skills such as the ability to listen, collaboration, innovation and creative thinking are paramount to address the perceived digital skills shortage. John Ryan, Director of Zinopy made the point that the talent is in the country but our challenge is to re-programme it or to explore how this talent might be best utilised for careers in tech. Niamh Bushnell also alluded to the trends in other countries to open candidacy for roles to people with no skills and again alluded to learning as you go, being a problem solver and being persistent as three key traits of a good candidate. Some really appealing anecdotal evidence was given of successes that various participants had had with hiring people for jobs with no apparent relevant skills i.e. hiring a candidate for a first level tech support role who had no relevant skills but was absolutely passionate about music. He has since transferred that passion to grow his career and is now a technical manager in the same company.
3. A Seismic Shift in the workplace, are the robots taking over?
The word robot comes from the Slavic word "rabota", which means labour/work.
When I was growing up the concept of robots to me was c3po in Star Wars but today there are about 10 million industrial robots toiling around the world. Japan is the top country with the highest density of robot utilisation in its manufacturing industry. One of the key discussions at the conference was whether the perceived threat that robots once posed in terms of taking our jobs has been realised. One of the points repeatedly made at the conference was that jobs won't disappear because of the bots but rather the repetitive nature of the jobs will disappear and the jobs that humans are doing could well make a slow evolution into a much more interesting beast. We listened to a very informative presentation from Jonathan Kidd, Head of Digital Information and Robotics at Bank of Ireland who explained that BOI currently has 130 robots in use who are freeing up employees to spend more time with customers or in effect taking the robot out of the person.
The evolving digital landscape is something that poses both one of the greatest challenges and opportunities to the world of work as we know it. The resounding message from the speakers was that this is something to embrace and not to fear. Equally, across the aim of a good digital strategy, the search for tech talent and the growth of robots in the workplace, the unified theme was to put the human experience at centre stage and use tech as a support not as a threat.

Excel runtime error "32809" corrupt workbooks?
We received new computers recently (Windows 8, 64 bit, Office 2013) and everything was working fine everywhere, at first.
Suddenly, about two weeks ago, we started getting issues that defy logic on some computers only.
On certain computers only, the workbooks simply do not work. We get unexpected runtime errors "32809" for no reason when running macros or other runtime errors for no reason... Some basic code just fails to function on certain computers only. In other words I could take the exact same file and run it on two identical computers and the same macro would throw an error on one and work perfectly on the other. I can also take a perfectly working file on one computer send it to a user, if that user simply hits "CTRL + S" then sends the file back to me, the file's macro wouldn't work anymore. This does not make sense, at all.
In the "corrupt" file, I even tried writing some new code for testing... The most basic code like Sheets("Job Time Sheet").Select won't even work. Two sheets can't be access programmatically, for some reason (again, on certain computers only).
The origin of the error seems to be two specific sheets (even though again, the workbook works fine on several computers). If I create copies, then delete them, the file starts working again. But because those two sheets can't be accessed with VBA, the repair process can't be automated and needs to be done manually, which is not acceptable.
The whole thing does not make sense. I thought that Windows/Office Updates were to blame for this and made sure that the computers we were using for testing all had the most recent updates. Didn't change a thing.
On some of the computers that were corrupting the files, we also tried uninstalling/re-installing office, with no success.
Anybody has an idea of what might be the problem????? Again, the fact that the same identical files works on 70% of the computers only defies logic. We all have the exact same computers, settings etc.
Note we did not have this problem when we were using our older computers and Windows 7/Office 2013. This all started with the new machines.
Security Update (Dec 14) from MS is definitely the issue.
The december 2014 Office 'update' could be the culprit.
Yes I'm seeing the same issue.
We have mixed Office 2013 pre December 2014 SP, post December 2014 service pack and Office 2010.
Applying latest 2013 Service pack to 2013 and 2010 and removing the exd files has solved the issue in all cases so far tried.
How do I access *unsaved* Excel workbooks in VBA?


This is a reminder that our energy problems are just one geopolitical crisis away.
Memorial Day weekend kicks off the annual summer driving season, but like a bad movie we have watched several times before, this holiday weekend is waiting to greet us with higher gasoline prices.
National average gasoline prices today are bumping up against $3 per gallon and could hit $4 per gallon on the West Coast. At the same time, West Texas Intermediate crude oil went from less than $30 per barrel to more than $70 per barrel today.
Higher oil prices might be good for Texas oil companies, but if they spike too high too fast, they can be hard for industry to accommodate and will make all of our lives much more expensive, especially during the summer drive season. However, with the right combination of technologies and policies that emphasize efficiency, we can protect ourselves from price volatility while reaping the benefits of this most recent oil boom.
For states like Texas, market forces mean higher prices will trigger more oil production, which means more jobs. But this time, a rise in employment might be lower because many oilfield workers who lost their jobs a few years ago when oil prices collapsed might not go back.
At the same time, the oil and gas industry has invested in automation, so not as many people are needed. It all means the economic shot in the arm that usually accompanies a price spike, blunting the drag of higher prices on the economy, might not be as effective as before.
There are also the confounding effects from the Trump administration's changes to domestic and trade policies. Even if oil company employment did increase because of higher prices, travel bans and immigration constraints will make it harder for global oil companies to fill their rosters.
A trade war might make our crude oil and refined products less desirable to global customers. Steel tariffs raise costs for producers who need the material for drilling activity and building their pipelines, which makes it harder to get oil out of the ground or move it to market. Those policies create headwinds for bouncing back from several years of low prices.
After oil prices increased for several years in a row in the early 2000s, the George W. Bush administration signed into law stricter fuel economy standards after two decades of stagnant requirements. After gasoline exceeded $4 per gallon in 2008, helping to trigger the Great Recession, the Obama administration tightened fuel economy standards even further, with the hope that they would reduce oil imports, reduce CO2 emissions, and most importantly, protect consumers from the economic shock of price spikes.
Today, many people cheer the recent tax cuts, but for some, the benefits of the tax cuts have already been wiped out by higher gasoline prices. That means energy policy is undermining our tax policy.
But all of these are problems that can be solved.
Rather than picking trade fights, raising the costs on critical materials such as steel for oil producers, making it harder for companies to hire the world's best talent, and rescinding policies that use efficiency to protect consumers from high prices, we need to double down on the bipartisan approaches developed over many years to manage the challenges of our oil-dependent society.
We need to push for tighter fuel economy standards and invest aggressively in research and development to bring down the costs of cleaner, more efficient transportation options such as hybrids, electric vehicles and natural gas vehicles.
We need to invest in wider use of mobility services, micro-transit, mass transit and point-to-point transit to reduce congestion on the roads.
We need to better promote flexible work schedules, bike lanes and incentives so employees can work from home some days or ride and bike to their jobs. And we need to move away from trade wars and toward open markets for labor, capital, goods and services.
Through bipartisan action, our energy situation is much better today than it was for nearly 40 years after the energy crises of the 1970s. We produce more, import less, consume less per person and emit less CO2 per unit of energy. These are all positive trends, but the recent rise in gasoline prices is a reminder that our energy problems are just one geopolitical crisis away and that bad policies at home can erase a lot of progress.

Although born in Lancashire, Sidney Smith Owen served with the Canadian infantry, before joining the Royal Air Force in 1918. He was killed in a flying accident a month after the war had ended.
Sidney Smith Owen was born on 8 July 1891 at Litherland, near Liverpool. He was the youngest of three children born to James Leitch Owen (1856–1927) and his wife Sarah Jane née Smith (1856–1941). James, from Tranmere in the Wirral, and Sarah, from Toxteth Park, Liverpool, had married at St Peter's Church, Everton in December 1877. Their three sons were born after long intervals, with George being born in May 1880, Harold in June 1884 and Sidney in July 1891.
At the time of Sidney's birth, the family were living at 14 Cunard Road, Litherland and his father was employed as a boiler maker. By 1911, James had been promoted to foreman and the family had moved about 1½ miles south to a larger house at 20 Merton Grove, Bootle. Sidney was now employed as an apprentice (commercial).
Sidney was educated at Hawthorne Road School in Bootle, and then at Bootle Boys Secondary School, and attended Christ Church in Breeze Hill, Bootle, less than half a mile from their home at Merton Grove. He was employed by Guest, Keen and Nettlefolds of Liverpool.
On 12 July 1912, Sidney embarked aboard the Allan Line steamship RMS Tunisian en route to a new life in Canada. The Tunisian had been built in 1900 with accommodation for 240 first class, 220 second class and 1,000 third class passengers, and travelled regularly between Liverpool and Quebec & Montreal. On 10 April 1912, she had been sailing between New Brunswick and Liverpool when she encountered heavy ice – a few days later, this ice was to claim the RMS Titanic and the lives of over 1,500 of its passengers and crew.
The Tunisian reached Quebec safely, and Sidney disembarked on 21 July. Although it appears that Sidney planned to seek work at Winnipeg as a ranch hand, he eventually travelled to the far west of Canada and settled in British Columbia, where he found employment as a clerk working for the Granby Consolidated Mining, Smelting and Power Company at their Phoenix Mine.
On 10 April 1917, Wor. Bro. W.H. Begbie proposed Sidney as a candidate for initiation into Derwent Lodge No 40 at St Leonards near Hastings in Sussex. Wor. Bro. William Henry Begbie (1856–1937) was an agent for the Globe Express Parcel Company and had served the lodge as Worshipful Master in 1915. The proposal was seconded by the lodge treasurer, Wor. Bro. H.C. Edwards.
Sidney Owen was one of seven Canadian soldiers initiated into Derwent Lodge during 1917. On 14 May, he was balloted for successfully, following which the Worshipful Master, Wor. Bro. G.F. Miller vacated the chair in favour of Wor. Bro. Begbie who initiated Sidney Owen. The charge after initiation was rendered by Wor. Bro. L.T. Weston. On that same evening, two brethren were passed to the second degree and four others were raised to the degree of a Master Mason. It must have been a long evening!
Sidney Owen was passed to the second degree at an emergency lodge meeting on 11 June 1917, and raised to the third degree at another emergency meeting four weeks later.
On 10 December 1917, the lodge received a letter from Bro. Owen giving his apologies and enclosing 20 shillings for the broken column.
Sidney enlisted at Victoria, British Columbia, on 13 February 1915, joining the 30th Battalion of the Canadian Infantry (Canadian Expeditionary Force) as Private No 77966. On his attestation papers, he stated that he had previously served in the Royal Navy Volunteer Reserve in England, and in the 88th Volunteer Force in Canada.
The 30th Battalion embarked for Britain on 23 February 1915 and spent the summer of 1915 in training at Shorncliffe on the Kent coast. The battalion were kept in reserve, and used to provide reinforcements for the Canadian Corps in the field. In January 1917, its personnel were absorbed by the 1st Reserve Battalion, CEF.
Sidney Owen was wounded in the Third Battle of Ypres (also known as the Battle of Passchendaele) in the autumn of 1917. Following his recovery from his injuries, he rejoined his battalion at the front. In March 1918, he was transferred to the Royal Air Force as a cadet. He spent the summer of 1918 training at Reading and Winchester and on 28 September he was commissioned as an honorary lieutenant. On 23 October, he went to France and was assigned to the 42nd Squadron of the Royal Air Force.
The 42nd Squadron was engaged in flying reconnaissance sorties, using Royal Aircraft Factory R.E.8 two-seater biplanes. Known colloquially as the "Harry Tate", after a popular music hall performer, the R.E.8 was an unreliable aircraft and, having been introduced in 1916, by 1918 it was becoming obsolete – some pilots considered it to be a "death trap", although it could be flown safely by an experienced pilot.
On 11 December 1918, a month after the Armistice, Lieutenant Sidney Owen and his observer, a fellow Canadian, 2nd Lieutenant William Dixon Wicks (aged 29) were flying R.E.8 No B5041 from an airstrip at Aulnoye (now Aulnoy-lez-Valenciennes) in Eastern France, to transfer it to a new airfield closer to England. Shortly after take-off, the plane got into difficulties and crashed in flames, killing both pilots.
The two pilots were buried the following day alongside each other in St Roch Communal Cemetery in Valenciennes.
A report of his death was published in the Bootle Times on 20 December 1918, accompanied by a notice from his family. The family published notices on the anniversary of his death in 1919 and 1920.
OWEN – In loving memory of our darling son, Sidney Smith, 1st. Lieut., Pilot, 1st British Columbia Regiment, attached Royal Air Force, killed in France Dec. 11th, 1918.
"Father in Thy gracious keeping, leave we now our loved one sleeping." – His sorrowing Mother and Father, Merton-grove, Bootle.
As well as on the Masonic Roll of Honour, Sidney Owen is commemorated on memorials in both of his former schools and in Christ Church, Bootle and on the Bootle Civic War Memorial. He is also commemorated on the war memorial tablet set above the secretaries' desk within the temple in the St Leonards Masonic Hall.
Sidney's elder brother, George Leitch Owen, also served in the war, as a bombardier with the Royal Field Artillery. George died in July 1932, aged 52, while his other brother Harold lived to 87, dying in 1971.
With special thanks to Wor. Bro. Terry Mahoney for the extracts from the Minute Books and records of Derwent Lodge No 40.

The IPPI both analyses and actively contributes to processes of societal transformation in research projects that engage with actors from government, civil society and the industry. Our researchers and Fellows work together with decision-makers to promote sustainable policies that draw on a variety of disciplines and international best practices.
The global IPPI network of alumni and partner institutions plays a pivotal role in our theory of change. Our Fellows continue to work in some of the world's leading public policy institutions thereby contributing to the further development of our international network that leads to the creation of effective partnerships between engaged like-minded visionaries and change makers in Israel and the world.
The Israel Public Policy Institute (IPPI) was founded in 2015 and heralded in a new type of think and do tank within the Israeli public policy landscape: We created a unique platform for research and exchange that brings together policy experts and institutions from around the globe in order to develop new ways to think and exchange about the challenges facing our societies from within an interdisciplinary and international perspective.
Through our research activities and programs we strive to capitalize on the growing similarities between our societies and open up new channels for exchange of perspectives and best-practices in order to improve governance and public policy globally.
Global challenges such as climate change, sustainable energy supply, food security or migration do not stop at national borders. No country can find answers to these questions alone. Solutions can only be developed together in cross-border cooperation in science, research and most importantly, policy. International cooperation in research and policy planning is thus crucial in order to capitalize on the wealth of knowledge that exists across borders.
"The cooperation with the IPPI provides an opportunity to foster ongoing exchange with researchers and professionals from Europe."
"IPPI helped us to understand how different governments incorporate digital innovation into the workforce in the public sector."
"We worked with IPPI to better understand the positioning of health data management from a global perspective, including relevant international models and regulations."
"Working with an IPPI fellow was a wonderful experience. His contribution both to a project we developed jointly and to projects I worked on independently was significant."


With the information of the human genome construction we at the moment are coming into the section of studying how our physique works utilizing ion channels for protein placements inside our mobile buildings. The ion channels usually are voltage associated, or polarity associated which permits the doorway and exit of a number of proteins. Before now we lacked the information to see and perceive the position of ion channels in addition to we lacked the computing energy to see the particular momentary actions of the ion channels. The ion channels are opening and shutting within the tens of hundreds of thousands instances per second, and we merely didn't have the storage and pace obligatory in computing energy to investigate momentary occasions and summarize these processes for an outline of the sequences resulting in well being and illness.
For many lay individuals, akin to myself, the ideas of ion channels and polarity might be obscure. The reasons get muddled within the terminology used, akin to this text itself referring to "voltage" and "polarity" on the similar time. Let's clear up what is de facto happening and discover a higher option to perceive electrotherapy and ion channels.
The buildings in our physique depend on membranes. For our physique the one very giant membranous construction is our pores and skin. Our pores and skin serves to maintain inside and defend from out our inside organs whereas sustaining blood inside us. If we drive deeper into life we discover a multitude of residing buildings that rely upon the same "pores and skin", or membrane. The membrane is a definable construction which has a various electrical cost on both aspect of that membrane that differentiates the construction. What did I simply say?? Should you have a look at membranes you discover a increased % of potassium inside the membrane than outdoors the membrane. Measure potassium within the membrane could also be 70% of the mass and outdoors the membrane it is 30% ( that is an instance solely and never particular to precise mobile construction – for extra on potassium & nature go here ). The membrane gives the isolation from the interior to the exterior. It's this relationship that defines a few of the goal of the membrane.
The membrane itself doesn't have a single electrical cost however the resting cost is consistently altering based mostly upon the wants of the cell. As cost adjustments then the ion channels permit the transport of wanted proteins. When the proteins usually are not wanted then the membrane might have a predominant detrimental cost (-) which repels these ions with a detrimental cost ( as with a magnet likes repel (+/+), unlikes entice ( +/-). So long as the cost is detrimental then detrimental ions can't enter the channels, nonetheless sure positives can. That assertion in and of itself will doesn't stand alone with out some further info on ion channels electrotherapy machine benefits.

What a hoot! A fake ad for a fake drug for a fake disease. Google it to see how it's catching on.
I attended the student "strike" and peace demonstration out at UCSB campus on Thursday afternoon. The group (there were about 500 kids at the height of the event, about 200 at the end) assembled for speeches and chants on campus, then marched in an energized throng out the main gate and down both the incoming and outgoing lanes of California highway 217, shutting down the principal entrance to the university for more than two hours. It was quite a rally--beautiful day, wonderful kids. Let's hope it ignites something, something missing so far on campuses: genuine loathing for our nation's foreign policies.
(Here's a photo, with my protest sign--illegible because of distance from the camera--located just to the left and down from the speed-limit sign. Here's a more detailed account of the event from the SB Independent.)
BTW--A letter I wrote to the Independent was published in its 2/15 issue, and if it appears online, remind me to post a link to it here.)
Keystone spies
A background Newsweek article on the "Qud force" that Bush is blaming for Iran's intrusion into Iraq points out two oddities about the ordnance that was displayed, allegedly implicating Iran as the source of its manufacture: (1) The identifying language on the projectiles was in English, not Farsi; and (2) the date of manufacture showed the month first, followed by day and year, as done in American military script.
Can't these idiots who plant false claims to justfiy US invasion get anything right?
The "surge" debate in the House
I watched an hour or so of the ongoing debate in the House about the Democrat-sponsored "non-binding" resolution to disapprove of Bush's escalation of the Iraq war/occupation. Two observations:
(1) My congressperson, Lois Capps, happened to be at the podium for her five minutes and, to me, gave a creditable--more than creditable in substance, a bit weak in delivery--speech about the state of affairs in Iraq, and in this nation. I felt proud that she was my voice in Congress, even though she's nowhere near as radical in her views as I. She's good people, Lois Capps is.
(2) The Republicans, alternating speeches with the Democrats, were absolutely nuts. Speaker after speaker kept invoking "the war on terr'r," widening the debate to one of a global nature, calling any hesitation to support Bush's escalation as a capitulation to "those who would kill us" and "the extremist radical forces of Islam."
My reaction to the latter: I thought they were joking, that they'd drunk Kool-Aid or toked something. Their speeches sounded like lunacy, truly drug-driven.
But later this evening, on the Internet, I found out I was wrong. No lunacy, no Kool-Aid was at work. They were just following orders.

Check out this incisive essay about our pundits' repeated use of lines from Yeats' poem. It does indeed feel like it must have felt to Europeans in 1919, when devastation and turmoil were everywhere, when the world seemed to be going mad.


About 12 hours ago Mojang updated Minecraft to 1.6.4. A few moments ago all the servers in the network have been updated to 1.6.4. This includes Skyblock, Survival Games and Creative.
Taking advantage of the planned maintenance, I also pushed a couple bugfixes and updates that have been sitting there waiting to be deployed.
If you're a diamond donator, you can fly again in /ma donator. You don't have to do anything special. Simply have /fly active when you join and you'll be able to fly once inside.
Books of Effects now only drop if you kill the mobs, meaning if you deal the killing blow with a sword, bow or other means. They no longer drop if the mob is killed by any other means not involving a player, e.g. from fall damage, lava damage, pistons or killed by other mobs. This has been requested a couple times by people with large mob farms.
TNT explosions no longer deal damage to players. It has been requested on the forums, and I think it goes along with all other protections we have. It helps making your experience on the server as fun and safe as possible. TNT explosions still deal damage to mobs and animals, if you have rights to kill the animals in that area. Note this does not apply to creeper explosions, these still hurt players as they used to.
/played has been reset for last time. We're now handling this with a custom written plugin, replacing the old way we used to do this. It's faster, better and has a couple other neat features you'll see in upcoming weeks. As I said a couple times in the past, old played time is not lost and I'll be importing the data to the new plugin in the near future. Until then, everyone that logs on the server will get 500 sc as a small token of appreciation first time they log on.

Please do so hoppers works with chest or trapped chest that can't be private anyway. That have "been requested on the forums" to and it's a big problem.
Trapped chests. They can't be privated. So should be ok to let hoppers pull stuff from them. Even if I see a little prob about tracking stuff. But guess hoppers as block get tracked, so no biggy.
You are right, this could work. So people could use trapped chests when they need automation, and regular chests for everything else. It's not like trapped chests get much day to day use anyway. Yes, that's a great idea.
Yes heat that would be great I have been waiting since 1.5 came out!!
Your dogs have already been killed heat.
Umm heat you said creative did you add that for all players or is it staff only?
