I have an idea for a release/feature!
Do I get a Steam key when buying a game from GOG?
Can I share games with others?
What happens when I miss a promo? Can you help me out?
Can I add to my GOG account some games that I bought elsewhere?


Booger on the left (I'd like to explain the headband, but nonsensical kid fashion knows no logic nor bounds), and Toots on the right. This is Toots' first day of kindergarten. Two years ago. And also when I was still only 40. Such halcyon days.
I remember the first time I gave serious thought to the budget cuts affecting California's public education — it was when my oldest daughter entered kindergarten two years ago. I know, care much? I did in theory, but unfortunately the impact of the cuts in education spending didn't hit home, until it hit my daughter's school. Hard.
Arrogantly, I thought I was impervious to budget cuts. Prior to enrolling Toots in the elementary school she attends now, I considered several different schools — mostly private — so I could get my daughter the best possible education available within reason and within our resources. I was impressed by the small class sizes at the Catholic schools I visited (12 kids to a class? Be still my parental heart) and even registered Toots for a few of these schools, despite the financial burden. But then, my husband and I decided to move to a town about 20 miles north of where we lived so we'd reside in the Poway School District, a community of public schools recognized for providing an outstanding education.
And so that's what we did. I assumed that because we were in a renowned school district, we'd be immune to budget cuts and their impact. But entering Toots' kindergarten class that first day, and milling about among the 22 other registered children and their parents, I realized no one in the public school system would be unaffected. Toot's kindergarten teacher practically begged for volunteers that first day, because the school couldn't afford a teaching aide, and she was quite on her own for teaching all 22 children to read, learn math, make art projects, tell time, tie shoes, and in general, provide an excellent educational experience.
Without volunteers, she was up the creek. Without a paddle (those cost extra).
The year went on. I volunteered every Friday, and did my best to help, and thankfully, so did plenty of other parents. And before I knew it, my daughter was ready for the first grade. And that school year? School started a week later than usual (because the teachers salaries were cut) and the class sizes measured 26 to a classroom (because there wasn't enough money to pay more teachers for smaller class sizes). Art was in danger of an axing, and forget about PE (PE is when kids are encouraged to run around the track before school and at recess).
And so Toots graduated to second grade, and my five-year-old, Booger, got ready to start kindergarten. And this August, tears in eyes and lump in throat, I took my youngest to her first class. Booger ended up with the same teacher Toots had and so the classroom look comfortingly familiar and recognizable. The only thing? This year, there were 29 children in the class. TWENTY-NINE children. And one teacher. By God, this was the year our kids learned to read! And it'd also be real nice if they could actually ambulate about the classroom without tripping over one of the 28 other students.
I dropped Booger off and caught her teacher's eye. "I know," is all she said.
Because with three years of California budget cuts measuring a loss of $18 billion to our public schools, it's the schools in lower-income communities that suffer the most. And I'm by NO MEANS in a wealthy community, but I am in one where there's usually only one working parent, leaving the other available to volunteer. And yes, there's some disposable income to donate to the PTA or the school's foundation for educational field trips or new books or to keep the librarian.
Many schools had to fire their librarians.
All this is to say: Sometimes I feel helpless. And sad. And wonder what to do. And think about what other people do. And worry about next year and the year after that and so on and so on.
1. Collect Real California Milk seals from the dairy products you buy (you buy like 82,000 packages of cheese too, right?).
3. The teachers send in the seals to win.
One very cool thing about this is that for the first entry, the classroom receives a Scholastic book, with plenty more opportunities to win additional books.
Also, EACH seal is a sweepstakes entry, and the sweepstakes runs from October 1, 2011 to December 31, 2011. Please find out more at scholastic.com/sealappeal. That link will take you to every thing you need and want to know.
**This post was sponsored*** by Real California Milk. But all thoughts, opinions, and angst are mine.
***The money I was compensated for writing this post is going directly to my school's PTA fund. It's the exact amount they request as a donation to pay for art classes and teacher's aides and so many more necessary things.
****Could I ADD any more stars? Man oh man. Star overload.
*****HA HA! Just a little sponsored post humor.
It's the same all over. Some other people homeschool or choose private schools if they feel able, and sadly, government schools get worse and worse as a consequence.
Ouch. I just learned our pre-K which just switched to an all day program has 27 of those little dumplings with NO aid. But it looks different on paper when you factor in the special needs class only 6 kids into the student/teacher ratio average. It's positively criminal what some states are doing to our children. We spend magnificent sums on police/prisons/roads/hospitals/wooing large corporations with tax breaks for JOBS, but we toss CRUMBS at the kids. Shame.
And like you, I live in an area with moms at home and low unemployment.
My kid went to 3 elementary schools – one here in CA, from 3 – 5th grade. Very active local parent community, lots of volunteers, including me, small school population. One of his friends' parent was the school librarian.
1st – 2nd grade he was bussed to a school in north Seattle, also very active parent community, lots of volunteers – not so much me, it was pretty far away, but sometimes.
Kindergarten – he went to our neighborhood school, very high proverty neighborhood, very little parent involvement due to 2-job and swing shift parents. I volunteered a couple days a week in his class. It was the hardest work I've ever done, tooo! That teacher was incredible, but it was her final year before retirement. Those kids needed so much – one little girl had seen her nine-year old sister killed by a stray bullet in a drive-by shooting. The school had no PTA because the families coudln't afford to pay dues, but the principal held a monthly Spaghetti Dinner for families, just to get people to the school to interact.
I can only imagine now how his first school must be, with the cutbacks.
Education in America in general and in California specifically, is a wreck. I understand how the promise of sweepstakes money can make our eyes swirl as parents. We all need it so desperately. But this is just adding to the problem of inequity (of course the milk advisory board wants people buying it's product, but there are many in lower socioeconomic stations who cannot afford milk, so which schools win out again?). Education needs to be properly and equitably funded at the local, state and federal levels, and not further imbalanced by contests and the clipping of product labels.
But we do what we have to do, parents continue to pick up the every-increasing slack. Parental involvement is not only mandatory, but is the key to future success of our kids. However, how far should we be expected to go? We fill in the holes with our money, our time, our connections, our skill sets, and more money, and the various boards of education and policy makers see needs being met without having to pay for it. What incentive do they have to right the situation? The more we do, the less they are apt to see a need. It's a cycle of downsizing and I don't see a way out.
My child goes to a school in which the same handful of families do all the work. Kids with only one working parent are a rarity at our school. There are, of course, those families who think you bus a kid to school and pick him up after and the educating is done(you cannot legislate good parenting). But there are so many more working multiple jobs, who are in careers that don't afford them the freedom to be in the classroom, who would give anything to be able to be more present. And if we're not vigilant, and attending board meetings and advocating for our schools, policies are made that make everything worse.
How is it that, when talking about funding cuts, nobody ever mentions the cost of fanatic testing? Our district has benchmark exams coming up in October, the first administration It's n of three that will be given this year. My teacher is already in constant contact with me about my child's progress, where she is now and where she needs to be. Teachers provide a benchmark. So I wonder: How can a district cut busing, cut field trips, cut teachers, cut art, cut music, cut PE and close schools, yet still afford to administer its benchmark tests three times in one year to all first through eighth graders? I offer my school board a benchmark of their performance, and it looks like a giant middle finger held up high in the air.
To answer Aaryn's question: the public schools do not want to do so much standardized testing. Trust me. They are mandated to do so (and to beg for ever-increasing test scores) because if they do not, they will lose much of their government funding due to the (perhaps well-intentioned but in-actuality horrifying) No Child Left Behind legistlation.
And to answer Deb's question, yes. I buy 82,000 pounds of cheese. Naturally.
@julie: I know what you're talking about, and this is definitely part of the larger issue. NCLB is a disaster. But the tests I'm referring to in this example are not federally mandated. These are district mandated tests. There is no funding hinging on them as far as I can tell and they are just lobbed on top of the state and federal testing. My school district is making all kinds of other terrible cuts (I know of one first grade teacher who has asked parents to print out their own books at home because there aren't enough for the class and she's already over her allotted copies for the month). And yet, they prioritize funding of tests that are, in my view, generally useless and/or redundant.
What I think needs to happen is parents need to say NO to the testing and decide as a group to opt out of a particular test. That would be very powerful if you could get a majority of parents to refuse to subjugate their kids so the nonsense.
Your happy cows are famous, but I don't know if I get their happy CA milk in NC. If I do, I'll be on the lookout for those seals.
More importantly, that picture of the girls is PRICELESS!
I also remember those moments of joy/pain when my kids went off to school for the first time.
Just so you know, my kids went to Catholic grade schools and high schools. We ALWAYS had to support the schools with volunteerism, fund raising, etc. All sports participation cost extra. Everything cost extra. And the class size in the popular parish in which we lived was larger than what you describe. So, I think you're doing alright. If it's a good school, all those extra efforts are worth it.
Good to know! We've been looking for tips on helping my kiddos school. Thanks for the post!
This is such an evocative way to explain why programs like this are important. And kudos to you for pledging the sponsorship money to the school. I'm going to do the same thing.
My kids also attend public school in an area where lots of parent help is available. We also have the time and/or resources to get help them with homework or get a tutor. I have to wonder about the kids in areas where this help just isn't available.

It took about 5 seconds for this free Android app to become one of my favorite news readers
There is no question that news readers make up a category of apps that is completely flooded. On one hand, this is great because it gives people plenty of choices that offer all sorts of different functionality. But it also means that you might never find the perfect news app for you because there's just so much clutter to dig through.
I have a few different apps that I consider my go-to news reader apps on iOS and Android, but now there's a new one to add to the list, and it became one of my favorites immediately.
DON'T MISS: The most infuriating thing about the Apple Watch
News readers typically do a few things well and a few things very poorly, which is why users tend to rely on more than one app for their news. Personally, I use an RSS reader to follow the main news sources I read regularly — Fiery Feeds on the iPhone and Press on Android — and then I use the list feature in Twitter apps as well as a few other apps such as Flipboard and NYT Now.
Now, I have a new app to add to that list.
Instead of trying to hit all of the important notes in a news reader, IIIN focuses on one thing alone: showing you news that is currently trending on social networks, organized by popularity. Only a handful of news organizations and blogs are covered by the app, so the user isn't overwhelmed. You can also narrow the stream down to a specific category, such as business news or entertainment news.
Also, unlike many other trending news apps, you won't see the same story 47 times when it breaks.
There are a few things I don't like about the app. For example, it would be great to exclude news sites and blogs that I never want to see. I'd also like the option to add sites that I do want to see covered in the app. Overall though, it's a great option for people who want to see what's trending at any given moment in a sleek and simple interface.
IIIN's full description follows below, along with a link to download it from the Google Play store. The app is Android-only right now, though the developer has told BGR that an iOS version will launch soon.
IIIN is perfect app to track most recent trending news. Every hour, we collect what people are talking about all over web, blog, social networks then identify trending events, stories, information, videos and organize them in categories. IIIN is also integrated with many social features, making it become a network of news.
IIIN tackle two fundamental problems of traditional publisher and social news. On one hand, official news website rank their content based on editors' perspective, not the audiences. In some case, however, they will not reveal what users are really interested about or some sensitive events (political stuff for example). On the other hand, news that has been viral on social networks (Facebook and Twitter) are biased toward entertainment, showbiz life, weird stuff and not well-categorized. Those are reasons why we introduce IIIN – Trending news
★IIIN stands for: interesting, integrated and interactive news★
• Interesting: All the news we provide are shared and discussed by thousand to hundred of thousands people on internet and social network. It's often a controversial issue or a touching story that draw massive amounts of attention. In other words, they are all worth reading.
• Integrated: We show you updated statistic of each articles about how viral it is currently (how many shares, comments), then you could easily select what to read. In addition, comments and opinions about the news are also available.
• Interactive: IIIN is great place to share your thoughts, feeling about currently trending events. By Facebook or Twitter logging in, you are conveniently able to like news articles, share stories to your Facebook or Twitter walls. Particularly, we focus much effort on comment sections which is perfect to enjoy discussing.
★Features★
• Simple view version with only well-formated text (along with original web version)
• Share, like news article by logging in Facebook or Twitter
• Joining comment section by logging in Facebook (without logging in, you just can read comments)
• Save article to read later on offline mode
• Delivery everyday, you could specify delivery options(notifications, delivery time) on settings screen

This document describes the individuals and organizations involved in the IETF. This includes descriptions of the IESG, the IETF Working Groups and the relationship between the IETF and the Internet Society.
The process used by the Internet community for the standardization of protocols and procedures is described in [B]. That document defines the stages in the standardization process, the requirements for moving a document between stages and the types of documents used during this process. It also addresses the intellectual property rights and copyright issues associated with the standards process.
The RFC publication series [B] is managed by an Editor (which may in practice be one or more individuals) responsible both for the mechanics of RFC publication and for upholding the traditionally high technical and editorial standards of the RFC series.
The functions of the RFC Editor are performed by one or more individuals or organizations selected in accordance with the procedures defined by the RFC Editor charter [G].
Each IETF Working Group is headed by a chair (or by co-chairs) with the responsibility for directing the group's activities, presiding over the group's meetings, and ensuring that the commitments of the group with respect to its role in the Internet standards process are met. In particular, the WG chair is the formal point of contact between the WG and the IESG, via the Area Director of the area to which the WG is assigned.
The details on the selection and responsibilites of an IETF Working Group chair can be found in [A].
Most IETF Working Groups focus their efforts on a document, or set of documents, that capture the results of the group's work. A Working Group generally designates a person or persons to serve as the Editor for a particular document. The Document Editor is responsible for ensuring that the contents of the document accurately reflect the decisions that have been made by the working group.
As a general practice, the Working Group Chair and Document Editor positions are filled by different individuals to help ensure that the resulting documents accurately reflect the consensus of the Working Group and that all processes are followed.
The following organizations and organizational roles are involved in the Internet standards process. Contact information is contained in Appendix A.
The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) is an open international community of network designers, operators, vendors and researchers concerned with the evolution of the Internet architecture and the smooth operation of the Internet. It is the principal body engaged in the development of new Internet Standard specifications.
The technical work of the IETF is done in its Working Groups, which are organized by topics into several Areas (e.g., routing, network management, security, etc.) under the coordination of Area Directors. Working Groups typically have a narrow focus and a lifetime bounded by completion of a specific task.
For all purposes relevant to the Internet Standards development process, membership in the IETF and its Working Groups is defined to be established solely and entirely by individual participation in IETF and Working Group activities. Participation in the IETF and its Working Groups is by individual technical contributors rather than by formal representatives of organizations.
Anyone with the time and interest to do so is entitled and urged to participate actively in one or more IETF Working Groups and to attend IETF meetings which are held three times a year. In most cases active Working Group participation is possible through electronic mail alone. Internet video conferencing is also being used to allow for remote participation.
To ensure a fair and open process, participants in the IETF and its Working Groups must be able to disclose, and must disclose to the Working Group chairs any relevant current or pending intellectual property rights that are reasonably and personally known to the participant if they participate in discussions about a specific technology.
New Working Groups are established within the IETF by explicit charter. The guidelines and procedures for the formation and operation of IETF working groups are described in detail in [A].
IETF Working Groups display a spirit of cooperation as well as a high degree of technical maturity; IETF participants recognize that the greatest benefit for all members of the Internet community results from cooperative development of technically superior protocols and services.
The administrative functions necessary to support the activities of the IETF are performed by a Secretariat consisting of the IETF Executive Director and his or her staff. The IETF Executive Director is the formal point of contact for matters concerning any and all aspects of the Internet standards process, and is responsible for maintaining the formal public record of the Internet standards process [B].
The Internet Society (ISOC) is an international organization concerned with the growth and evolution of the worldwide Internet and with the social, political, and technical issues that arise from its use. The ISOC is an organization with individual and organizational members. The ISOC is managed by a Board of Trustees elected by the worldwide individual membership.
Internet standardization is an organized activity of the ISOC, with the Board of Trustees being responsible for ratifying the procedures and rules of the Internet standards process [B].
The way in which the members of the ISOC Board of Trustees are selected, and other matters concerning the operation of the Internet Society, are described in the ISOC By Laws [C].
specifications as Internet Standards. The IESG is composed of the IETF Area Directors and the chair of the IETF, who also serves as the chair of the IESG.
The members of the IESG are nominated by a nominations committee (the Nomcom), and are approved by the IAB. See [E] for a detailed description of the Nomcom procedures. Other matters concerning its organization and operation, are described in the IESG charter [does not yet exist].
The Internet Architecture Board (IAB) is chartered by the Internet Society Trustees to provide oversight of the architecture of the Internet and its protocols. The IAB appoints the IETF chair and is responsible for approving other IESG candidates put forward by the IETF nominating committee. The IAB is also responsible for reviewing and approving the charters of new Working Groups that are proposed for the IETF.
Standards and serves as an appeal board for complaints of improper execution of the standards process [B]. In general it acts as source of advice to the IETF, the ISOC and the ISOC Board of Trustees concerning technical, architectural, procedural, and policy matters pertaining to the Internet and its enabling technologies.
The members of the IAB are nominated by a nominations committee (the Nomcom), and are approved by the ISOC board. See [E] for a detailed description of the Nomcom procedures. The membership of the IAB consists of members selected by the Nomcom process and the IETF chair sitting as a ex-officio member. Other matters concerning its organization and operation, are described in the IAB charter [D].
Many protocol specifications include numbers, keywords, and other parameters that must be uniquely assigned. Examples include version numbers, protocol numbers, port numbers, and MIB numbers. The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) is responsible for assigning the values of these protocol parameters for the Internet. The IANA publishes tables of all currently assigned numbers and parameters in RFCs entitled "Assigned Numbers" [E]. The IANA functions as the "top of the pyramid" for DNS and Internet Address assignment establishing policies for these functions.
The functions of the IANA are performed by one or more individuals or organizations selected in accordance with the procedures defined by the IANA charter [F].
The Internet Research Task Force (IRTF) is not directly involved in the Internet standards process. It investigates topics considered to be too uncertain, too advanced, or insufficiently well-understood to be the subject of Internet standardization. When an IRTF activity generates a specification that is sufficiently stable to be considered for Internet standardization, the specification is processed through the IETF using the rules in this document.
The IRTF is composed of individual Working Groups, but its structure and mode of operation is much less formal than that of the IETF, due in part to the fact that it does not participate directly in the Internet standards process. The organization and program of work of the IRTF is overseen by the Internet Research Steering Group (IRSG), which consists of the chairs of the IRTF Working Groups. Details of the organization and operation of the IRTF and its Working Groups may be found in [H].

On 29 September, 2018, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, NDA government has focused on the development of every segment of society in the past four years with the mantra of Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas.

Mr Narendra Modi pointed out that after demonetization, black money is not present in the property market. He said that prices of property have also fallen and home loan interest rate, which was more than 10 per cent under UPA, is now 8.75 per cent.
He added that prices have fallen after GST. He said rebate on income tax and relief on saving has been increased. He expressed confidence that Ayushman scheme will not only succeed but will create a new history.

Flip Out Mama: Mega Bloks Skylanders Giants Arkeyan Robot King Review!
Mega Bloks Skylanders Giants Arkeyan Robot King Review!
If you're like me, you probably think of blocks when you think of Mega Bloks. Regular old building blocks and building kits. However, that is just not the case anymore! We recently got a chance to check out an awesome building kit from Mega Bloks from one of Tater's favorite things ever: Skylanders Giants!
Build a blasting battle with the Arkeyan Robot King by Mega Bloks Skylanders Giants™! Pop Fizz will have to gulp down all the soda he can and transform into Beast Form when he confronts the Arkeyan Robot King with working Iron Fist launchers! With two green Chompies guarding the treasure chest, Pop Fizz will have his work cut out for him as he tries to collect the Robot King's loot!
When the battle is over, collect the treasure and prepare to build a brand new battle!
Ideal for kids age 5 and up.
Combines with the rest of the Mega Bloks Skylanders Giants™ to build your battle!
This really is a cool toy, even to the mom who doesn't really like video games that much! Tater has really loved this toy, he plays with it at least once every day! I mean, come on, what little boy does not love a treasure chest? That is by far his favorite part! The giant robot king guy is also a very popular part too, and little Mr. Pop Fizz is often used to scare his little brother, of course!
This toy is good for ages five and up, it does have some little pieces, so watch out if you have little ones in the house as well. In our house this is a toy that has to be picked up after playing with it so little brother doesn't get into it, but that's no big deal. It comes with quite a few pieces, and is very affordable at right around $30.00. Thinking of adding it to your Christmas list? Here's a great link for you! Don't forget to follow Mega Bloks on Twitter and Facebook too for the latest updates!
I received a sample product in order to facilitate this review. All opinions are 100% my own and are never influenced by an outside source.

Survey Says Supply Chain Execs Are Measuring Emissions
The "Green Transportation & Logistics North American Report" reveals that corporate commitment to environmental initiatives is growing, as is the need to invest in new technologies and harness industry partnerships, according to a July 22 press release.
The report is based on a survey by eyefortransport of more than 500 North American supply chain executives.
With up to 75 percent of a company's carbon footprint coming from transportation and logistics, the focus of supply chain continues to highlight this area, where, for many companies, the opportunity to make the biggest difference exists.
The report revealed that the vast majority of respondents, 90 percent, think that over the next three years green issues will remain or become more important to their transport and logistics processes. An amazing 9 percent identified green issues as their No.1 priority over the next three years, while only 1 percent expects a lessening of importance. This push toward green is reported to be driven by a number of factors, including financial return on investment (61 percent), public relations payback (78 percent), improved customer relations (83 percent), decreased fuel bills (70 percent), and improved supply chain efficiency (59 percent).
How do they plan to green their transportation and logistics? eyefortransport's Senior Vice President for Environmental Research Katharine O'Reilly said, "Increasingly we're seeing new partnerships being created for environmental reasons, and even competitors working together in order to stay competitive." Indeed, 20.5 percent of respondents are currently using a logistics partner or service provider to help green their supply chain, and a further 26 percent are exploring the possibility of adding a partner company in a new collaborative effort to push environmental initiatives forward.
In order to survey the current landscape, respondents were asked what actual green initiatives have been implemented or planned in their companies. The results revealed that 72 percent are or are planning to improve energy efficiency, 37 percent are redesigning warehousing and distribution center networks, and a dramatic 60 percent are measuring and/or reducing emissions.
"We were surprised by the high percentage of companies developing unique, internal systems for measuring the supply chain carbon footprint" said O'Reilly. "With the diversity of off-the-shelf technologies recently introduced, we expected more adoption of some of the best-of-breed solutions. What we're finding instead are homegrown solutions and a large percentage of companies who are still shopping for the right product for their needs."
The reported drivers for measuring the carbon footprint of supply chains include cutting costs, enhancing reputation, and the anticipation of tighter upcoming regulations.
