Бьёрн Мелин (; 4 июля 1981, Йёнчёпинг) — шведский хоккеист, нападающий. Воспитанник клуба «Дален».

Карьера

Бьёрн Мелин начал свою профессиональную карьеру в 1999 году в составе клуба Шведской элитной серии ХВ71, выступая до этого за его фарм-клуб. В том же году на драфте НХЛ он был выбран в 6 раунде под общим 163 номером клубом «Нью-Йорк Айлендерс». В составе клуба из своего родного города Бьёрн выступал до 2004 года, когда он вместе с командой стал победителем шведского первенства, внеся значительный вклад в этот успех. Тем не менее, сразу после этого он перешёл в клуб «Мальмё Редхоукс», который по итогам сезона 2004/05 покинул элитный дивизион.

Перед началом следующего сезона Мелин принял решение вернуться в ХВ71, набрав 40 (20+20) очков в 59 проведённых матчах. 31 мая 2006 года Бьёрн подписал однолетний контракт с клубом «Анахайм Дакс», который четырьмя годами ранее выкупил права на игрока у «островитян». Сезон 2006/07 Мелин начал в АХЛ в составе клуба «Портленд Пайретс», а 7 января 2007 года он дебютировал в НХЛ в победном матче против «Детройт Ред Уингз», в котором он отметился заброшенной шайбой. Однако, проведя в составе «уток» лишь 3 матча, он был командирован обратно в АХЛ, где и доиграл сезон, набрав 22 (8+14) очка в 59 матчах.

27 апреля 2007 года Бьёрн решил вернуться на Родину, заключив трёхлетнее соглашение с ХВ71. За 3 года Мелин дважды становился чемпионом Швеции, завоёвывал серебряные награды первенства, а также в 2009 году он получил звание самого результативного игрока серии плей-офф. 2 июня 2010 года Бьёрн подписал однолетний контракт с нижнекамским «Нефтехимиком». Однако, проведя в составе нового клуба лишь 14 матчей, в которых он набрал 5 (3+2) очков, он был отзаявлен из «Нефтехимика».

22 ноября Мелин стал игроком клуба Швейцарской национальной лиги «Фрибур-Готтерон», в составе которого за остаток сезона он провёл 23 матча, набрав 16 (10+6) очков. 10 июня 2011 года Бьёрн принял решение вернуться в КХЛ, заключив однолетнее соглашение с рижским «Динамо», однако, проведя в его составе лишь 11 матчей, и не набрав ни одного очка, 18 октября он был отзаявлен из клуба. 25 октября Мелин подписал контракт до конца сезона с клубом финской СМ-Лиги «Лукко».

Международная
В составе сборной Швеции Бьёрн Мелин принимал участие в юниорском чемпионате мира 1999 года, на котором он вместе с командой завоевал серебряные награды, а также молодёжных чемпионатах мира 2000 и 2001 годов. На взрослом уровне Бьёрн выступал на чемпионате мира 2006 года, который принёс шведам золотые медали. На том турнире Мелин провёл 6 матчей, в которых он набрал 2 (0+2) очка. Также с 2001 года Бьёрн регулярно призывается под знамёна сборной для участия в этапах Еврохоккейтура. Всего на его счету 21 (4+17) очко в 54 проведённых матчах за сборную.

Достижения
 Чемпион мира 2006.
 Серебряный призёр юниорского чемпионата мира 1999.
 Чемпион Швеции (3): 2004, 2008, 2010.
 Серебряный призёр чемпионата Швеции 2009.
 Лучший бомбардир плей-офф чемпионата Швеции 2009.

At this time of the year, you can still see the structure of the gardens. They almost have a sculptural quality. I love to walk among the plots and enjoy the variety of creative ways people have enhanced their small spaces. This rustic trellis particularly pleases me.


It may not be that much of a problem but I would think that it's just one more addition however small it may be to some of the other reasons given here as to why LH throwing catchers face some negatives RH catchers do not.
Never caught, but it seems that depending on where the batter is in the box it would be a more clear throwing line if the batter is on the glove side of the catcher, no obstruction making the throw on steal attempts.
As I did say earlier overall the LH catcher faces some disadvantages RH throwing catchers do not. The guys on the field know it, you would think by now there would be some LH throwing catchers if it were more feasible.

Last year there were 1515 steals in the NL in 2590 games. There were 610 CS. So that his 2125 attempts per 2590 games or .82 attempts per game. That just isn't that important.
I get the point but it could be of importance in some game situations. I think in my previous post I did say it was small or minor, but it's in the mix.
My only point on this one, only saying with the far higher number of RH batters the throw could be more difficult for a LH catcher more often than for a RH catcher.
Again this is only one, a minor disadvantage, there are more. I don't think I'll live long enough to see a LH throwing catcher, too many negatives.
I see some seeing LH catching another way, like it could be, it might work. I don't think so. We would have seen one by this time.
What makes a LH thowing catcher in MLB even less likely, besides some disadvantages is the fact that in "most cases" it's not often to see one going back to even little league baseball.
In the few cases in little league where you might, as the player progesses you see even less lefty throwing catchers.
you guys may want to check out this article.
He mentions that lefty catchers have an easier play on bunts and slow rollers in front of the plate. When my son was 9 or 10, he laid down a perfect bunt down the first base line. The lefty catcher quickly got to it, and since he had a clear throw to 1B, his throw just nipped my son. I remember thinking a righthanded catcher's throw would probably have either hit my son or been way off the mark.
I couldn't find a lefthanded catchers glove when I played LL so I was doomed to a mediocre career at 1B, RF and P.
you guys are right about no high school coach would put a left in the infield except at 1st and pitcher. my brother tried out for the JV baseball team, he was a freshmen and he T:left and B:right. well he was better then half the guys who made the team. his coach from 8th grade moved up to JV and wanted him but the 4 Varsity coaches said no beccause he plays second base and hes a lefty and they also said he was too short, like wtf? thats a bullshyt excuse. my brother was amazing at second base, and he didnt have a single strike out in 8th grade, he was on base 90% of the time, but they said no because he was a lefty at second. i used to play first base and he played second on the same team through out little league and he was the best second base player out there. all i know it the team sucked because of the players they picked and missed out on a great player in my brother because they never gave him a chance. i was sorta in the same thing too...i was a righty 1st base and in 8th grade they always put leftys there so i was always sitting. i hate the discrimination in baseball like that.
Lets Go Mets, Jets, Islanders !!!
I always figured that 2B would be the hardest. Can you imagine trying the pivot on a DP lefty.
Sure -- the only really big problem is that they'd be facing the outfield rather than the infield when they pivoted. It could cause small problems holding a runner at third (for example). And I'm not sure how well they could cover second on a SBA. But if you've got a lefty thrower with a good arm and plenty of defensive range it could work.
A LH 2B would have to develop an unorthodox style to get the job done, but it'd be foolish to say it could NEVER happen.
I've always thought a LH C would have an advantage in a play at the plate when the ball is coming in from right field. A RH C has to pivot and brace or have his back to the runner while fielding the throw -- a lefty could stand sideways on to the throw and brace to recieve the runner while the ball was still airborne. On a great throw, a LH C also might have the ability to make the play from outside the basepaths and avoid the collision altogether and make the out on a backhand sweep tag -- like a righty 1B making a tag on a throw that's to his left.
The real problem for a lefty throwing catcher is that in forementioned collision play their throwing arm is in EXTREME jeapordy. Especially on a throw from right, that shoulder would be the first thing to get hit. It might mean the life expectancy for a LH C would be shorter.
They might also have an advantage when blocking the plate because the baserunner wouldn't have as easy a shot at their glove arm if they tried to dislodge the baseball.

I could see the 2B working out if they played closer to the bag enabling to take a more circular route to make the spinning required easier. Still iffy, and would require an acrobat. But the 4-6-3 DP in some cases would be made easier. Unless the ball is hit to his right the 2B would come up ready to throw. And for 2B/SS/3B balls hit to their left they'd have a general advantage getting in position to throw to first.
He'd have to stand on the infield side of second base with his back to the catcher in order to turn it cleanly. That might mean it'd be trickier to get into position while playing with the infield back -- a bit further to run.
Yeah, that was where I was thinking he'd end up. I was trying to figure out where he'd need to play to have a decent chance to get in that position. Anyhow, the SS needs to relay it over to him even more perfectly than normal. It absolutely has to be on the glove side to make it possible.
FWIW, I played 2nd base as a lefty in softball, and turned some double plays. If the throw was to my glove side, I'd spin around clockwise and then make the throw. I prefered the ball to my left side.


Giant Palm Leaves: Today was Palm Sunday, the day Jesus rode into town on a donkey – everyone rejoicing and celebrating and laying the street with clothes and palm branches – imagine how festive it must have been. We made a stack of leaves and had a wild game of palm leaf statues was on the menu, taking leaves away and making it trickier and trickier as we went along!!!
A Garden of Remembrance: Gather some mini-plants from the garden, ready a flat bottomed dish, a rock for a tomb and a little cross… Garden away!!!
Mapping: My kids have been making an ancient map, along with dipping teabags in paper!!! Their map shows the life and times of Jesus in the last week of his life.
Passover Platters: My little guys will make these as place mats over the next couple of days. It is a great way to think about the food that Jesus would actually have eaten on the night of the Passover.
30 Pieces of Silver: Once snickerdoodles are baked they look just like coins and are the perfect cookie to bake when talking about Judas and his betrayal of Jesus.
Donkey craft: Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey and we will whip up some peg-ponies in remembrance of this event.
Hot Cross Buns: These are really easy to make… a lot easier than I thought they would be. Good Friday tradition in our house!!! And lots to talk about while you are rolling out little crosses.
The point of doing Easter projects is not just that we build memories and create traditions with our kids, and they aren't just something to fill up our free time with!!! Actually they are important for bringing us together from whatever we were doing and creating a chance to talk about Easter and what it is all about. Nobody can roll out a batch of snickerdoodles without chatting and if you call them thirty pieces of silver and talk about Judas's betrayal at the same time then you are teaching without lecturing and I am all for that!!!
Your crafts and traditions are great! What a beautiful way to learn about the true meaning of Easter.
Hay KM, Thanks – I am all for quick and easy!!! And these sure are that!!! Hope you are enjoying some springshine!!!
Really wonderful ideas – thanks for sharing.
Hay J, Glad you liked them!!!
Some of these ideas are a bit old for my kids right now (1.5 and 3), but I'll be saving them for a few years from now… thanks for sharing! I'm always on the lookout for quality Easter activities that are Christ-centered!
Thanks for stopping by A!!! I hope you and your kiddo's have a great fun Easter!!!


When doing home renovations, the master bedroom is usually last on the list to decorate as most of your budget is allocated to bigger spaces, such as the kitchen or the bathrooms. For most, the bedroom is their sanctuary.
With the right interior design in your bedroom, you too can have a welcoming sanctuary from the outside world. Let's take a look at some helpful tips to design a beautiful master bedroom which to escape the hustle and bustle of modern day life from.
When upgrading your room, be sure to plan it properly. From the colour of the walls to the type of furniture you want in the room. By doing this you're able to take full advantage of your upgrades without wasting any money as everything is planned for accordingly.
If you're thinking of upgrading the lighting in your bedroom, consider adding a dimmer lights as well as new bedside lamps. Ensure you have sufficient natural light coming into the room and if it's not possible, install enough artificial lighting in the forms of lamps.
Neutral bedrooms are always best, as they provide you with a sense of peace and serenity. This will also prove to be of benefit later on should you wish to sell your property as most people are attracted to neutral colours.
To maximise the space you have in your bedroom, try to incorporate different textures to give the room more character. If there is no pattern on your bedding, why not choose some scatter cushions with patterns and sequence on it.
If your master bedroom doesn't have sufficient storage space, redecorating is the perfect opportunity to be creative. Having an ottoman at the bottom of the bed is the perfect way to maximise space.
With most modern rooms having laminate or wooden flooring, add some natural warmth to your room with a rug. With so many options to choose from, opt for something that won't date and is soft in texture to make sure the start to everyday is a good one.
By having a designated seating area, you're able to ensure you can keep technology out of your bed and that you're able to give your partner the undivided attention they deserve.
To keep your bedroom a sanctuary and ensure a good night's rest, add a combination of abstract photography and family portraits to the walls. By varying the sizes of the photo's, you can make the size of the room appear bigger than it is.
If you're unable to upgrade the entire room to look more modern due to budget constraints, choose a focal point in your room you can upgrade. By changing the room around so you can incorporate a dresser, or an occasional chair, you're able to change the whole look of the room.
This is a space both you and your partner are going to live in for years to come, it is important to ensure your partner is involved in the decision making process. Make it a modern room that meets both your desires.
Following these easy tips will put you that much closer to having a calm and relaxing haven to retreat to after a long day. You don't need to break the budget to afford a beautiful main bedroom. Look forward to retreating to your happy place at the end of a long day.


Ta Lyis a village elder in the community of Prolay in central Cambodia. He remembers a time when his entire village, and hundreds of families used to live from lacquer crafts.
In his youth, Cambodia even exported over fifty tons per year to Europe for advanced industrial applications in early electronics and machinery.
Today, Siem Reap based Community First Advisor & Partner Eric & Thierry Stocker of Angkor Artworks have joined forces are not only preserving and reviving the crafts that revolve around lacquerworks, but to also build Cambodia's first Lacquer Tree Plantation & Research Institute to promote and develop the trade (learn more; Where we're going (re: lacquer)).
GIVING $25 NOW will help villagers plant and grow a tree in their community which can fund a well every 15 years.
As a result, the protection and development of this natural and renewable resource becomes an invaluable resource for the development of the villages where the tree grows.
As part of this village outreach project, you can help us providing trainingthe last few remaining harvesters of lacquer, or you can help us re-introduce this tree on a massive scale as part of a brand new people-drivenproject across dozens of villages in central Cambodia.
Just fourteen trees that take can fund the construction of a deep water well every single year for forty years. You can give water to 4,000 families over your lifetime or that of your children by planting a tree.


For win 98 and me you were able to select what you would like to start when your computer booted up with "msconfig" but for win 2000 that command does not work. I am wondering if there is another way besides going to start > programs > startup to get programs out of startup. All these programs still run in the task bar.
Windows 2000 Pro does not have the msconfig utility. But I have found that if you have a computer that is running windows Xp it has the msconfig utility program. You will find the msconfig utility in the c:\windows\servicepackfiles\i386 folder. The file size is only about 142 KB so it will fit on a disk.

Drugs factor in West Utica slayings
Jessica Ryen Doyle and Catherine Kurtelawicz
UTICA – Local law officials are scrambling to put together the pieces of "a big puzzle" after two people died and one was hospitalized following a shootout Thursday morning on Stark Street.
An additional victim fled from the West Utica crime scene, police said, and his whereabouts were not known as of Thursday night.
Police said they believe drugs played a role in the 11 a.m. shoot-out in the second-floor apartment at 942-944 Stark St.
Officials said it resulted in the deaths of:
* Hungria Ferreira, 54, who resides at that address. His body was taken out of the house shortly before 4 p.m.
* Orlando Curtis, 23, of Utica, died at St. Elizabeth Medical Center. Curtis, who served a three-year drug-related sentence at a state prison, was released Oct. 12, Oneida County District Attorney Scott McNamara said.
Curtis was prosecuted in Oneida County.
According to police, here's a breakdown of what took place Thursday:
* About 11:15 a.m., two men in need of medical attention were brought by a gray Jeep Cherokee to Faxton-St. Luke's Healthcare's Regional Cancer Center entrance on Newell Street.
* The driver of the Jeep left the two men and drove away. Authorities still were searching for him Thursday night.
* Hospital staff immediately called 911, and the two victims were taken by ambulance to St. Elizabeth's.
* Curtis died a short time after he arrived at St. Elizabeth's. The second victim still is in serious condition, and his name was not being released Thursday night.
The deceased victims were shot in the torso and arms, Utica Police Chief C. Allen Pylman said.
"They are not the type of people who are spending time in church on Sundays," Pylman said about those involved in the shooting.
Pylman said all the individuals involved knew one another.
"To complicate matters, we have reason to believe another vehicle was involved," Pylman said.
Police also are looking for a late-model, silver-colored Dodge mini-van seen leaving the 900 block of Stark Street at the time of the incident, he said.
Pylman said they recovered the murder weapon - a small-caliber gun - on Lamb Street, which a witness saw someone drop before fleeing.
That suspect was last seen on Lincoln Avenue and Warren Street, he said. Nearby, Lincoln Academy school on Lincoln Avenue was on lockdown.
"At this juncture, it's tough," Pylman said. "We don't know how many suspects or individuals were involved. In each and every case, there is always a lot of unanswered questions … this case is like so many others, it's a big puzzle we are trying to figure out."
By law, anytime a person is treated at a hospital for a gunshot wound, the hospital is required to contact their local police department, McNamara said.
The Utica Police Department has sent out a teletype to all police agencies in the state and country alerting them that officials here are looking for a suspect who may have a gunshot wound, McNamara said.
Ferreira's apartment was owned by Gina Maria Properties, Mayor Tim Julian said. In the past six years, the property hasn't had any codes violations or major complaints, except for maybe a few noise complaints, he said.
"It's not a problematic house," Julian said.
Julian said police had conducted zero tolerance sweeps in recent months in that area.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Utica Police Criminal Investigations at 223-3510.

I just finished reading When Genius Failed, the story about a huge hedge fund (Long-Term Capital Management) that blew up in the late 1990s after an incredibly profitable 4-year run. Unsurprisingly, their methods were too good to be true and the fund came pretty close to bringing the entire financial system to its knees. The fund was spearheaded by Nobel Prize winners, Wall Street whiz kids, and Ph.D. level mathematicians. They had it all figured out…until they didn't. Some details in the book might confuse readers without a financial background, but the broad lessons about risk make the story valuable and worthwhile for anybody.
It's hard for me to pinpoint an exact reason as to why this fund failed. Greed, ego, and plain ignorance all played a part. Buffet has warned investors, "Why risk what we have for what we don't need?" The greed factor and Buffet's question certainly have relevance here. Ego was obvious. LTCM was secretive about what they were doing and thought they had the market beat. Even when the tides began to change, they'd blame bad luck or make up other excuses as to why the fund was losing. Finally, ignorance isn't something we often attribute to the failure of such smart people, but it definitely played a role here. The models work great in a perfect world. How could they have been so blind to assume our world is a perfect one?
Before I share some of the most interesting (and shocking) facts about LTCM, I can't help but point out a very obvious, and a not-so-obvious irony related to this book. The irony in the name "Long-Term" Capital Management can't be overlooked. The fund was in existence for about 5 years. Naming a fund like that and then leveraging a portfolio 100-1 with complex, risky trades is the type of foreshadowing you only see in terrible made-for-TV movies.
Anyway, here are some fun facts about LTCM. Don't forget to pick your jaw up off the floor!
The fund launched in 1994 with $1.2 billion in capital. By 1997 the fund had nearly $5 billion in capital.
Its after-fee returns in its first three years were: 21%, 43%, 41%.
In 1995, LTCM earned a 59% return (before fees). Its cash-on-cash return was likely less than 1%.
To accomplish this, the fund borrowed huge sums of money with little money down by convincing its lenders that their strategies were so good, the risk was minimal.
Pro-tip: When dealing with financial markets, if you ever find yourself asking whether your model is wrong or you've uncovered an incredible opportunity, 99.9% of the time, the model is probably wrong.
In 1998 Long-Term Capital calculated with mathematical certainty that it was unlikely to lose more than $35 million on any single day. On August 21, it lost $553 million.
In August 1998 the fund lost $1.9 billion, or 45% of its capital.
In the fall of 1998 LTCM had less than $1 billion in capital, but controlled $100 billion of assets and had $1 trillion in notional derivative exposure.
Thursday, Sept 10, 1998 the fund lost $145 million.
Friday, Sept 11 the fund lost $120 million.
Monday, Sept 14 the fund lost $55 million.
Tuesday, Sept 15 the fund lost $87 million.
Wednesday, Sept 16 the fund lost $122 million.
In 1998 it lost $4.6 billion in less than four months following the 1997 Asian and Russian financial crises. The Federal Reserve was forced to intervene along with 11 other banks to bail the fund out. It was entirely liquidated and dissolved by early 2000.


Mohamed Metawi, managing director of Clarksons Shipping Agency, said that the company is negotiating with two international companies, in the field of ship fuel supply, in order to establish a station for ships' fuel supply in Egypt.
He told Daily News Egypt that the value of investments expected to be injected into the station is estimated to be $200m, however, the final location of the station has not been chosen yet, but it will most probably be established in the Suez Canal Economic Zone (SCZone).
He said that negotiations are currently ongoing with the two companies in order to prepare for an agreement with one of them. "We hope to seal the deal with one of the two companies in 2018," he added.
He explained that the company is currently witnessing noticeable growth in the field of petroleum and gas. The state has started launching tenders for international companies to carry out petroleum exploration, especially after the demarcation process in the Mediterranean and the Red Sea, which makes the sector filled with investment opportunities. "This is why we are working to utilise these opportunities," he noted.
The two companies have established an administration for petroleum and gas and it will work to offer gas and petroleum transportation services, in addition to logistical and maritime services to owners of exploration rights, whether as maritime services in the Suez Canal, or in other Egyptian ports. They will also be offering any other services required inside Egyptian maritime borders.
The company has over 47 branches in more than 21 countries across the world, in addition to over 1,500 employees. It has offices in Cairo, Alexandria, Damietta, Port Said, and Suez. They serve the ports of Alexandria, Dekhila, Damietta, and the Economic Authority ports (West Port Said, East Port Said, Adabiya, Sokhna, and Al Tor).
Clarksons participated, with a delegation of its young people of different nationalities, in the World Youth Forum, headed by Essam Balla, the company's regional director, with the aim of holding discussions, exchanging ideas, and passing on the experience of the company in the fields of training, consulting, and maritime services.


For generations of resolute adventurers, from George Mallory to Sir Edmund Hillary to Jon Krakauer, Mount Everest and the world's other greatest peaks have provided the ultimate testing ground. But the question remains: Why climb? In High Exposure, elite mountaineer and acclaimed Everest filmmaker David Breashears answers with an intimate and captivating look at his life.
For Breashears, climbing has never been a question of risk taking: Rather, it is the pursuit of excellence and a quest for self-knowledge. Danger comes, he argues, when ambition blinds reason. The stories this world-class climber and great adventurer tells will surprise you -- from discussions of competitiveness on the heights to a frank description of the 1996 Everest tragedy.
Stephen Ambrose author of Undaunted Courage I've spent a lifetime reading books by or about the famous adventurers....David Breashears's book is the first I've read by an end-of-the-twentieth-century mountain climber that surpasses many of them and is equal to all.
Claire Martin The Denver Post Very few of us will ever set foot on Everest....But this thoughtful, philosophical narrative may be the next best thing to being there.
Bruce Barcot The New York Times Book Review The greatest pleasures in High Exposure come when [Breashears] invites his readers in to the clannish subculture [of climbing].

Honest services law must go
The Supreme Court should declare it unconstitutional rather than try to rewrite it.
Hervé Gouraige
Virtually all agree that the 1988 honest services amendment to the mail and wire fraud statutes, defining a scheme to defraud, is seriously defective in that it is vague and overly broad. Many have concluded that the statute can and should be saved through a judicial construction reading into it elements of prior case law under the mail and wire fraud statutes. In an unusual move, the U.S. Supreme Court has granted certiorari petitions in three separate honest services cases: U.S. v. Black, 530 F.3d 596 (7th Cir. 2008); U.S. v. Weyhrauch, 548 F.3d 1237 (9th Cir. 2008); and U.S. v. Skilling, 554 F.3d 529 (5th Cir. 2009). Two of those cases (Black and Weyhrauch) have been argued, and Skilling is to be argued in the spring. In the Skilling case, Jeffrey Skilling, the former president of Enron Corp., has clearly requested that the Court hold the statute unconstitutional because it is too vague to provide notice of what conduct is deemed potentially criminal.
As Justice Stephen Breyer said during oral argument in the Conrad Black case, at any given time, of the roughly 150 million workers in the United States, 140 million of them are engaged in conduct that potentially violates the statute.
Although the statute is extremely vague, the fundamental problem with it is not so much its vagueness as the fact that it has unlimited scope. Vagueness can be remedied through judicial clarifying interpretation based on case law existing when Congress enacted the statute. The Court could do this on the not unreasonable assumption that Congress adopted some of the case law giving content to the concept of honest services — a legal concept that, unlike the concept of property, does not have a clearly defined pedigree at common law.
More difficult would be the Court's justification of its authority, and the decisional standards it uses, to narrow the unlimited scope of the statute through inclusion and exclusion of potentially covered conduct. Assuming the Court has such constitutional authority (an arguable proposition, in light of the Court's ruling in U.S. v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220 (2005), to excise certain mandatory provisions of the Sentencing Guidelines in order to uphold their constitutionality), by what judicial criteria is the Court to determine what's in and out of the scope of honest services? Except for a body of federal common law doctrines under the mail and wire fraud statutes, not all of which are uniformly accepted by the courts of appeals, the Supreme Court has no constitutional text, structure or history to guide its decision-making.
Is theft of privacy rights, accepted by some courts in wire and mail prosecutions before the enactment of the honest services statues, out? In the private, nongovernmental context, is failure to disclose a conflict of interest or self-dealing in — at least when it is reasonably foreseeable that the conduct is likely to cause some significant economic or pecuniary harm to the victim? Where are these elements found in the language of the honest services statute? Moreover, what is the source of the duty whose violation may subject local and state officials, for example, to federal prosecution under the statute: federal or state law? This is a federalism thicket best avoided by the federal courts and left to Congress, where the interests of the states are adequately represented.
NO JUDICIAL REDRAFTING
There are many problems with the Court rewriting the law. First, it is not entirely clear which of the many types of conduct falling within the reach of the statute Congress intended to include. Therefore, it would be very difficult for the Court to decide which ones are in and which ones are out.
Second, and more fundamental, it is inappropriate for the Court to get into the business of redrafting legislation, especially criminal law; such a function should be performed by the political branches of the government, i.e., the legislature and the executive.
Third, and most important of all, the Court has long subscribed to the view that the federal courts have no constitutional authority or jurisdiction to fashion common law crimes. Unfortunately, in the area of mail and wire fraud prosecutions, the courts have for some time now developed a body of what can only be characterized as common law criminal conduct.
More recently, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, without any clear legislative authority, has pushed the envelope very far by defining the elements of criminal conduct under the securities laws — laws at times enforced with the honest services statute.
For example, the SEC has issued Rule 10b5-1, making it potentially a crime to buy or sell securities being "aware" of insider confidential information without actually using such information. The SEC has also asserted, under Rule 10b5-2, that, in misappropriation cases, a corporate "outsider" who breaches a duty (even a nonfiduciary duty) to the source of confidential corporate information obtained to conduct trades violates insider-trading law.
A DUE PROCESS VIOLATION
The honest services cases before the Court provide it the appropriate opportunity to put an end to further development of this nefarious doctrinal development by declaring the honest services statute unconstitutional under the due process clause. A statute defining conduct as criminal reflects the community's moral opprobrium of that conduct. Such a declaration should be made by the elective representatives of the members of the community, not by unelected judges. In recent years, we have gone too far down the road of defining almost all sorts of conduct as potentially criminal, and we have thereby cheapened the currency, i.e., the moral opprobrium, of the criminal sanction.
Congress can easily rewrite the honest services definition in the mail and wire fraud statute in a way that would limit the scope of the statute and clearly be constitutional. For example, Congress can say that the mail and wire fraud statutes are violated when a person seeks to deny an organization or community of his or her honest services by engaging in the following conduct: paying or receiving kickbacks, paying or receiving gratuities or briberies (although both are already covered by criminal statutes); breaching the fiduciary duties owed to the organization or the political community as defined in some statute or publicly promulgated code of conduct; or, in the case of an employee or corporate officer, breaching the common law duty of care and loyalty to an organization.

FACTOID # 22: South Dakota has the highest employment ratio in America, but the lowest median earnings of full-time male employees.
Encyclopedia > William LeMessurier
The engineer responsible for the structural desing of the Citicorp headquarters tower, in New York, (1977).
Categories: Stub
Citigroup Center at AllExperts (942 words)
Structural engineer William LeMessurier set the 59-story tower on four massive 114 foot (35 m) high columns, positioned at the center of each side, rather than at the corners.
In 1978, prompted by a question from a student, LeMessurier discovered a potentially fatal flaw in the building's construction: the skyscraper's bolted joints were too weak to withstand 70-mile-per-hour (113 km/h) wind gusts at specific angles.
LeMessurier's act of alerting Citicorp to the problem inherent in his own design is now used as a textbook example of ethical behavior.
THE FIFTY-NINE-STORY CRISIS, The New Yorker, 5/29/95, pp 45-53 (6730 words)
LeMessurier says, "I'd already conceived that you could build a little plywood house around each of the connections that were critical, and a welder could work inside it without damaging the tenants' space.
During LeMessurier's recent trip to Canada, one of Alan Davenport's assistants had mentioned to him that probable wind velocities might be slightly higher, on a statistical basis, than predicted in 1973, during the original tests for Citicorp Center.
At the time, LeMessurier viewed this piece of information as one more nail in the coffin of his career, but later, recognizing it as a blessing in disguise, he passed it on to Citicorp as the possible basis of a cover story for the press and for tenants in the building.

Q: Case Study: Singleton class inheritance - Good or bad? I have an example code of Singleton class inheritance below. However, I've not forseen if there's any hidden issue might happen with this code. Can someone analyze and give me a hint?
interface ChairIF {
    public int getLeg();

    public void test();
}

class ChairImpl implements ChairIF {

    private static final Lock lock = new ReentrantLock();
    private static ChairIF instance = null;

    public static ChairIF getInstance(String clazzName) {
        //get class by clazzName
        Class clazz = null;
        try {
            clazz = Class.forName(clazzName);
        } catch (ClassNotFoundException ex) {
            lock.lock();
            try {
                if (instance == null) {
                    instance = new ChairImpl();
                }
            } finally {
                lock.unlock();
            }
        }

        //init singleton instance of clazzName
        if (instance == null) {
            lock.lock();

            try {
                if (instance == null) {
                    instance = (ChairIF) clazz.newInstance();
                } else {
                    if (instance.getClass() != clazz) {
                        instance = (ChairIF) clazz.newInstance();
                    }
                }
            } catch (Exception ex) {
                instance = new ChairImpl();
            } finally {
                lock.unlock();
            }
        } else {
            lock.lock();
            try {
                if (!instance.getClass().getName().equals(clazz.getName())) {
                    instance = (ChairIF) clazz.newInstance();
                }
            } catch (Exception ex) {
                instance = new ChairImpl();
            } finally {
                lock.unlock();
            }
        }

        return instance;
    }

    public int getLeg() {
        return 4;
    }

    public void test() {
        throw new UnsupportedOperationException();
    }
}

class ThreeLegChair extends ChairImpl {
   public ThreeLegChair() {}

   public int getLeg() {
      return 3;
   }

   public void test() {
      int i = 0;

      while(i < 10000) {
         System.out.println("i: " + i++);
      }
   }
}

class NoLegChair extends ChairImpl {
   public NoLegChair() {}

   public int getLeg() {
      return 0;
   }

   public void test() {
      int j = 0;

      while(j < 5000) {
         System.out.println("j: " + j++);
      }
   }
}

public class Test {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
     System.out.println(ChairImpl.getInstance("ThreeLegChair").getLeg());
     System.out.println(ChairImpl.getInstance("NoLegChair").getLeg());

     /***
     TODO: build logic to run 2 test() simultaneously.
     ChairImpl.getInstance("ThreeLegChair").test();
     ChairImpl.getInstance("NoLegChair").test();
     ****/
   }
}

As you can see, I did put some test code in 2 subclasses. ThreeLegChair is to loop from 0 to 10000 and print it out. NoLegChair is to loop only from 0 to 5000 and print it out.
The result I got in the console log is correct. ThreeLegChair printed i from 0 to 10000. NoLegChair printed j from 0 to 5000.
Please share me your thought :)

A: Singleton pattern is achieved using the concept of private constructor i.e. the class itself is responsible for creating single instance of the class (singleton) and preventing other classes from creating objects.
Now as the constructor is private, you cannot inherit the singleton class at first place. In your case, I do not see a private constructor which makes it vulnerable to object creation from other classes accessing it.
Singleton pattern examples:

*

*Using enumerations in Java

enum SingletonEnum {
  SINGLE_INSTANCE;
  public void doStuff() {
      System.out.println("Singleton using Enum");
  }
}

*

*Lazy initialization approach

class SingletonClass {
  private static SingletonClass singleInstance;

  private SingletonClass() {
      // deny access to other classes
  }

  // The object creation will be delayed until getInstance method is called.
  public static SingletonClass getInstance() {

      if (null == singleInstance) {
          // Create only once
          singleInstance = new SingletonClass();
      }

      return singleInstance;
  }
}

However, the above example may not guarantee singleton behavior in multithreaded environment. It is recommended to use double checked locking mechanism to ensure that you have created a single instance of this class.

A: The code you post isn't an implementation of the singleton pattern.
Quite simply, you can do:
ChairImpl ci = new ChairImpl();

And instantiate as many as you want.
The traditional method of implementing the singleton pattern is the make the constructor private, have a private static field that holds the single instance of the class, and a static getInstance() method that either instantiates that instance or returns the existing one. Making that threadsafe involves either declaring it synchronized or using a locking scheme.
The private constructor bit makes it so you can't inherit from it.
That said, in Java the preferred way is using an enum which provides all the hard parts for free:
public enum MySingleton {
    INSTANCE;

    public int getLeg() {
        return 4;
    }
}

And using as:
MySingleton ms = MySingleton.INSTANCE;
int leg = ms.getLeg();

A: Singletons usually have private constructor. Your class is not following proper Singleton pattern. otherwise you would not be inherit your singleton class.

Cabin interior of La Compagnie's Boeing 757-200.
Since launching in July 2014, La Compagnie and CEO Frantz Yvelin have operated with the goal of disrupting the status quo of business-class travel.
For the past two years, the boutique all-business-class airline has championed the idea that premium air travel doesn't necessarily have to break the bank.
To commemorate the company's two-year anniversary, La Compagnie will offer one year of unlimited flights between New York and London or Paris for $35,000.
"Over the past two years, we've established a loyal fan base and want to reward them for our second anniversary," said Yvelin in an emailed statement.
The airline will make the unlimited passes, called "L'Unlimited by La Compagnie," available to only 10 lucky passengers on a first come, first serve basis.
For each pass holder, the airline will also assign a personal concierge to handle booking and flight-management duties.
At $35,000, these passes are far from cheap, which leads one to ask whether they are worth it.
After all, La Compagnie generally offers round-trip business-class seats at significantly lower prices than its mainstream competitors.
The airline routinely advertises discounted fares on its website for round-trip business class between New York and London for as low as $1,500, and round-trips to Paris for as low as $1,800. Those are prices are usually associated with premium economy tickets.
At those discounted prices, a pass holder would have to make between 20 and 23 transatlantic round-trips to break even on their investment. Anything more than that is gravy.
The unlimited passes will be available for sale between July 18 and 23.
La Compagnie currently operates a pair of Boeing 757-200 airliners. According to Yvelin, the airline is expected to add a third 757 to the fleet early next year. In addition, La Compagnie is in talks with Airbus and Boeing to add even more aircraft to its fleet.
Each of the airline's jets are outfitted with 74 business-class seats. Although the seats do not fully recline into a bed, they get close. In-flight entertainment is available through personal Samsung Galaxy tablets, while the menu is designed by award-winning chef Christophe Langrée.

Heat wave stresses grid, causes outages…
Heat wave stresses grid, causes outages throughout Southern California
PUBLISHED: September 7, 2020 at 7:06 a.m. | UPDATED: September 7, 2020 at 4:11 p.m.
The holiday heat wave is taking a toll on the region's power grid, with tens of thousands of Southern California Edison and Los Angeles Department of Water and Power customers still without power by Monday afternoon, Sept. 7.
Electricity for some was not expected to be restored until Tuesday.
Initially, some 90,000 customers were affected.
At 1 p.m. Monday, the DWP reported that 32,000 customers remained without power, down from 70,000 at 9 p.m. Sunday.
The DWP reported at 9 p.m. Sunday that its crews had restored power to 77,000 customers since the extreme heat wave started causing problems the day before. But crews were still working to restore power to some 70,000 customers by repairing overheated and overloaded distribution equipment.
As of Monday afternoon, the neighborhoods most affected by the power outages included Leimert Park, with 1,815 customers; Hyde Park with 1,056; Mid-Wilshire with 1,339; West Adams with 1,537; Park LaBrea, 1332; Hollywood Hills, 1,049; East Hollywood, 2,593; Highland Park, 1,095; Pacoima, 455; Arleta, 587; Sylmar, 3895; North Hollywood, 372; Panorama City, 640; Lake View Terrace, 879; and Studio City, 448.
The DWP warned some customers might be without electricity for 24 to 48 hours.
By early Monday, SCE reported 411 outages on its website affecting 20,991 Los Angeles County customers and 84 outages in Orange County affecting 2,630 customers.
There were 2,179 customers without power in unincorporated Los Angeles County, 277 in San Gabriel, 600 in South Gate, 250 in Whittier and 641 in Pomona.
In Orange County, 499 customers were affected in Buena Park, 277 in La Habra and 272 in Garden Grove.
The DWP urged people to set air conditioners to 78-82 degrees and to avpide dping laundry or running heavy appliances.
To report outages: 1-800-342-5397 or ladwp.com/outages.
Gov. Gavin Newsom, meanwhile, highlighted a number of steps to free up energy capacity.
"California has always been the canary in the coal mine for climate change, and this weekend's events only underscore that reality," Newsom said. "Wildfires have caused system failures, while near record energy demand is predicted as a multi-state heat wave hits the West Coast for the second time in a matter of weeks."
The state, Newsom said, has already taken the following actions to free up capacity:
Working with large commercial and public energy consumers to shift their energy usage away from peak hours;

FC Timisoara announced the release of Dejan Rusic (27). The powerful striker came to Romania in 2008 and scored 9 goals in 42 appearances in the league. Seriously injured, never played this season for Timisoara and during 2009 has never featured in the team's first eleven!
The other Slovenian player from Timisoara, Dare Vrsic (25), has been granted a move on loan back to his country, if he finds an interested club. The attacking midfielder showed some promise, but proved quite prone to injuries. In fact, in two and a half seasons collected only 22 games in the league. His contract with Timisoara runs until June 2012 and the Romanian club probably hopes to have him back to full match fitness at the end of this loan spell.

Q: Binary Tree Sorrt Java Recursive i've got some troubles with the Binary Tree Sort in Java.
I need to create the following method, but i don't get it, how to implement the position (pos) properly.
The excercise is to implement the Binary Tree Sort with the given signature. We then should initialize an int[] which size has to be at least the size of the Nodes in the tree.
The method
int binSort(Node node, int[] a, int pos){...}
should place the values of each node/leaf into the array a, at position pos.
I am not allowed to use global variables!
And as you can see, we need to implement the inOrder traversal
public class BinaryTree {

Node root;
int elements;

public BinaryTree() {
    this.elements = 0;
}

public void addNode(int key, String name) {
    Node newNode = new Node(key, name);
    if (root == null) {
        root = newNode;
    } else {
        Node focusNode = root;
        Node parent;

        while (true) {
            parent = focusNode;
            if (key < focusNode.getPriority()) {
                focusNode = focusNode.getLeftChild();
                if (focusNode == null) {
                    parent.setLeftChild(newNode);
                    return;
                }
            } else {
                focusNode = focusNode.getRightChild();
                if (focusNode == null) {
                    parent.setRightChild(newNode);
                    return;
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

public int binSort(Node focusNode, int[] a, int pos) {
    int tmp = pos++;
    if (focusNode != null) {
        if (focusNode.getLeftChild() != null) {
            binSort(focusNode.getLeftChild(), a, tmp);
        }

            System.out.println(focusNode.toString() + " - " + tmp++);
        if (focusNode.getRightChild() != null) {
            binSort(focusNode.getRightChild(), a, tmp);
        }
        return focusNode.getPriority();
    }
    return -1;
}

public static void main(String[] args) {
    BinaryTree tree = new BinaryTree();
    tree.addNode(50, "Boss");
    tree.addNode(30, "Boss");
    tree.addNode(10, "Boss");
    tree.addNode(70, "Boss");
    tree.addNode(9, "Boss");
    tree.addNode(15, "Boss");
    tree.addNode(78, "Boss");
    tree.addNode(36, "Boss");

    int[] a = new int[8];
    tree.binSort(tree.root, a, 0);
    System.out.println(tree.root.getPriority());
    System.out.println("");

    System.out.println(Arrays.toString(a));

}

}
My Output:
Boss has a key 9 - 0
Boss has a key 10 - 0
Boss has a key 15 - 1
Boss has a key 30 - 0
Boss has a key 36 - 1
Boss has a key 50 - 0
Boss has a key 70 - 1
Boss has a key 78 - 2
just ignore "Boss" (it is just a useless value at the moment!)
the important part is that the specific values which should be placed into the array are perfectly ordered (9,10,15,30,..,78), but the positions are not! (0,0,1,0,1,0,1,2)
I have no idea how to fix this.
Btw. the class "Node":
String val;
int priority;

Node leftChild;
Node rightChild;

public Node(int priority, String val) {
    this.priority = priority;
    this.val = val;
}

public int getPriority() {
    return this.priority;
}

public String getVal() {
    return this.val;
}

public Node getLeftChild() {
    return leftChild;
}

public Node getRightChild() {
    return rightChild;
}

public void setLeftChild(Node child) {
    this.leftChild = child;
}

public void setRightChild(Node child) {
    this.rightChild = child;
}

public String toString() {
    return val + " has a key " + priority;
}

I hope that your are able to help me solving this problem.

A: ok, i found the solution on my own :)
public int binSort(BinTreeNode nnode, int[] a, int pos) {
    if (nnode != null) {
        if (nnode.getLeftChild() != null) {
            pos = binSort(nnode.getLeftChild(), a, pos);
        }
        a[pos] = nnode.getValue();
        pos++;
        if (nnode.getRightChild() != null) {
            pos = binSort(nnode.getRightChild(), a, pos);
        }
        return pos;
    }
    return -1;
}

I needed to return pos, instead of focusNode.getPriority() and I only have to increment pos by 1, after I added the value of the current node!

German Vergara
german.vergara@hsoc.gatech.edu
Germán Vergara (Ph.D. University of California, Berkeley) specializes in Latin American and environmental history. His research and teaching explore environmental change, animal history, energy regimes, capitalism(s), and forms of industrialization in Latin America over the past two centuries and tries to locate those changes in a global context.
His book manuscript, Fueling Mexico: Energy and Environment, 1850-1950 (Cambridge University Press, forthcoming 2021), examines how and why modern Mexico transitioned from an agrarian society powered by animal muscle, water, and wood to a fossil-fueled industrial society. Within a century, Mexico went from an energy regime based on dispersed solar energy accumulated in plants and human and animal muscle to one based on the concentrated ancient sunlight trapped in fossil fuels. The study traces the ways in which industrialists, state officials, engineers, and ecology shaped this process and suggests that fossil fuels were adopted in response to the limits of wood-and-water based industrialization, the predominant manufacturing model of the late nineteenth century. Such limits took the form of large-scale deforestation, insufficient energy supplies, and increased social conflict over forests and water. For Mexican elites, fossil fuels seemed like the best—if not the only—option the country had for industrializing, prospering, and securing its national sovereignty over the long term. The book argues that the shift to a carbon-based society has been the main agent of environmental, economic, and social change in Mexico for over a century. The decision to power the country's economy with fossil fuels locked Mexico in a cycle of endless, fossil-fueled growth—the environmental and social consequences of which were nothing less than dramatic. Fueling Mexico is the first study to look at the historical roots of today's global fossil-fuel energy regime from a Latin American perspective.
While Germán's first book project examines the transition to fossil-fueled capitalist industrialization, his second book project will focus on the region's biodiversity crisis, one of capitalism's most important consequences. The study offers an environmental and economic history of species extinctions in Latin America since 1800. Recent estimates suggest that 41 percent of described amphibians, 26 percent of mammals, and 13 percent of birds currently face the threat of extinction worldwide. As one of the global centers of biodiversity, Latin America is at the heart of the current extinction crisis. The project will focus on the dynamic between the capitalist commodification of animals and nature, environmental politics, science, animal-human relations, and species extinctions throughout nineteenth and twentieth-century Latin America.
Germán has published on energy and animal history and has forthcoming articles on the environmental history of rivers and species extinctions. His article "How Coal Kept My Valley Green: Forest Conservation, State Intervention, and the Transition to Fossil Fuels in Mexico" was published in Environmental History. "Animals in Latin American History" appeared in the Oxford Encyclopedia of Latin American History.
After earning his Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley, Germán spent two years as a postdoctoral fellow in environmental history at Brown University. He has received fellowships from The University of California Institute for Mexico and the United States (UC MEXUS), the Charles A. Hale Fellowship for Mexican History from the Latin American Studies Association, and the USMEX Fellowship Program at the University of California, San Diego.

The Samsung Galaxy S5 is capable of sharing its connection with other devices like a laptop, tablet or portable gaming system thanks to a personal hotspot feature. When you use the Galaxy S5 as a personal hotspot you can connect other devices to the Internet anywhere you have a good cell phone signal.
This technology allows users to turn a single 3G, 4G or 4G LTE connection into one that is shared with several devices. While on a 4G or 4G LTE connection some users will gain speeds faster than a home internet connection. This is a great way to stay connected while traveling without paying expensive hotel WiFi charges or stopping at a restaurant to get work done on a trip.
Using the Samsung Galaxy S5 as a personal hotspot is often called a mobile hotspot, portable hotspot or simply tethering. Whatever you call it, this is how you can share your Galaxy S5's internet connection with other devices.
Most of the time using the Galaxy S5 as a hotspot means sharing the internet connection over WiFi, but users can also share the connection with a USB cable to keep the Galaxy S5 charged while using it as a personal hotspot.
Use the Samsung Galaxy S5 as a personal hotspot to share an internet connection with up to 10 devices.
Many plans allow owners to use the Galaxy S5 as a personal hotspot without any additional fee, but not all accounts include this. If you are on a shared data plan on AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile or Verizon the personal hotspot feature is included. For users that are not on a shared data plan there is often an additional monthly fee of $15 to $30. If you are using the Galaxy S5 on Virgin Mobile or Straight Talk there are no official options to use the Galaxy S5 as a personal hotspot.
This is something you can turn on when traveling and turn off when you are done so that you aren't wasting money. For users with a Galaxy S5 on a smaller regional carrier check with your company to find out pricing.
Using the Galaxy S5 as a personal hotspot will use more data than simply surfing on your phone and you should make sure that your computer is not backing up files, downloading updates or other tasks that use a lot of data while on a personal hotspot. If you use too much data you will need to pay extra on your next bill.
This guide shows you how to use the Samsung Galaxy S5 as a personal hotspot. If your account is not set up for it the phone will tell you and direct you to contact customer service.
There are many ways to turn the Galaxy S5 into a personal hotspot. We'll cover one method that will work on all carriers, a tip for AT&T users and how to create a hotspot shortcut to quickly turn the Galaxy S5 hotspot on and off.
If you are an AT&T customer there is a Mobile Hotspot app hidden in the AT&T folder. This app is a shortcut to the default Galaxy S5 personal hotspot settings. Users can drag this to a home screen for faster access.
Tap on settings to set up the Galaxy S5 personal hotspot.
On any Galaxy S5 pull down the Notification Drawer and tap on the small Settings icon in the upper right. This opens up the main settings menu. From here scroll down to the Network Connections group and tap on Tethering and Wi-Fi Hotspot.
The default Galaxy S5 personal hotspot options.
This screen will show a Mobile Hotspot setting that uses WiFi and a USB tethering option that uses a USB cable connected to your computer. When connecting by USB the Galaxy S5 supports one device. While used as a Mobile Hotspot the Galaxy S5 supports up to 10 devices.
Tap on Mobile Hotspot. This screen shows if the hotspot is active, the Galaxy S5 network name and a warning that using the Galaxy S5 as a personal hotspot can use a lot of data. Before tapping the toggle to turn the Galaxy S5 hotspot on, tap on the three dots in the upper right to change the settings.
Change the WiFi name and password on the Galaxy S5.
Tap on Configure and then change the Network SSID to something you recognize, like Josh's Hotspot. Scroll down and change the default password to something that you can remember but will be tough for a stranger to guess. When you are done tap on Save.
Before you go any farther it is a good idea to tap on the three dots again and choose Timeout settings. Choose how long the Galaxy S5 should keep the hotspot running with no devices connected. Keep in mind the longer you set this time the faster battery life will run down even when you aren't using the Galaxy S5. It is a good idea to set this for 10 minutes or less.
Set the timeout to 5 or 10 minutes for better battery life.
With the Galaxy S5 personal hotspot set up you can now turn it on with the toggle at the top of the screen. This will show a warning that turning the hotspot on will turn off WiFi. Tap Ok and the main screen will then show the Galaxy S5 hotspot as on, the network name and password as well as devices that are connected. Users can now search for the connection on a computer, tablet or gaming device and connect.
If you plug a Micro USB cable into the Galaxy S5 and connect it to a computer the USB Tethering option lights up as available. Tap on the option to activate tethering.
Users can also opt for USB tethering on the Galaxy S5.
On a Mac you will need to go to Network Preferences and set up USB tethering as a network connection. On Windows a small popup should prompt you to connect to a new network.
This is an option, but for most users it is easier to set up and use the Galaxy S5 as a Mobile Hotspot over WiFi and simply plug-in to a computer or charger for power.
If you don't have a shortcut to turn the Galaxy S5 hotspot on you will need to download a free Hotspot toggle widget from the Google Play Store. There are many options, but the free Hotspot Toggle Widget works well on the Galaxy S5.
Use a personal hotspot toggle widget to quickly turn your hotspot on or off.
Install this widget, then tap and hold on the Galaxy S5 home screen until the options appear. Tap on Widgets and scroll until you see the Hotspot Toggle widget. Tap and hold on the widget and place it on your home screen.
From there you can tap to turn on the Mobile Hotspot and tap again to turn it off. This is faster than going to settings and faster than using the AT&T mobile hotspot shortcut.
Maybe I'm missing something Josh but Hotspot Toggle Widget does not work on my AT&T S5. No hotspot toggle I've tried does. I can't even get Tasker to do it.
Most say the hotspot is active briefly but it never actually is. All fail at the "Please Wait While Verifying" stage. Once in a while if a repeatedly tap at the toggle it works, but only a few times, An NFC tag I wrote for a previous device worked once but never again.
How fo I keep track of the data I am using for my hotspot?
You can track all data usage with the default data usage meter. I don't think there's a way to track just hotspot usage. Maybe try finding an app on the Google Play Store.
All very well but can you please tell us how to make the phone and tablet allowed devices on both because this stops us making the hotspot.
I am having a problem with my hotspot. I was with vezion and switched to Straight talk. My hotspot was working fine with vezion now since I changed it comes up saying mobile number not found. Is there anyway I can use the straight talk hotspot?


Hire a Photo Booth from Crazy Town Parties - Photo Booth rentals are now available in Brisbane, Sunshine Coast, Gold Coast and Gympie!!!
Photo Booth Pods are the latest craze in party entertainment and are perfect for birthday parties, weddings, engagement parties, corporate events and so much more.
What is a photo booth pod?
A photo pod is a free standing photo machine that takes and prints instant photos. The machine is not enclosed like regular photo booths and it only takes up 1m2 of space. This means you can fit as many people as you like in each photo and the photo pod will easily fit in a range of locations at your event. If you would like the photo pod to be enclosed you are welcome to set up your own curtains or barricades around the pod to suit the available space at the venue.
What's included with the photo pod?
- a ridiculous prop box full of fun fancy dress items (wigs. eyewear, novelty toys, hats, ties, and other accessories).
- unlimited strip print photos for the duration of the hire (details on the layout of the prints is explained further below).
- Your own logo or personalized message printed in the bottom square of every photo strip (e.g. Kurt's 21st Birthday).
- A USB stick with every photo from the night.
How much is a Crazy Town Parties photo pod to hire?
Prices start from just $390 for a three hour hire plus delivery fees (if applicable, see delivery areas tab above for more info on which areas incur fees).
Overnight hire is just $490 plus delivery fees (a full roll of photo paper will be supplied with overnight hires - take as many photos as you want until the paper runs out - enough for several hours of non stop photos).
Optional extras include: a guest book for guests to stick in strip prints and write messages for the party host for $20.00.
Add a photo booth to the hire of any other entertainment item on our site to receive a $100 DISCOUNT!
How does a Crazy Town Parties photo booth work?
Our photo booths are designed to be as simple to use as possible. All participants have to do is dress up, press the big red button, smile (or look ridiculous), and wait for their photos to print.
Can a Crazy Town Parties Photo Booth be set up outdoors?
The photo pod needs to be kept undercover so that the electrical components inside do not get damaged if it happens to rain. The photo pod is compact so finding a suitable under cover area at your venue shouldn't be too difficult.
Can you print a date, name, slogan, brand, message or image on our photos?
For all events we can customise the background and base of the photo to include a logo or design of your choice. Simply send us the image or message (ensuring it meets our size and format requirements) and we can include it in the photo layout. Weddings can be customised to include a design or picture of the couple at the base of the photo. Corporate event photos can be customized to include a company brand or logo. You can add birthday messages, christmas designs or haloween themes. The opportunities are endless.
Do you provide me with a digital copy of the pictures of the event?
Yes, we will provide you with a high resolution digital copy of all your images on a USB free of charge. Additionally, with your permission we can upload all of the pictures to our facebook page so they can be viewed and downloaded for free and shared on facebook by all your guests - provided they are not too rude ;). You will have unlimited access to the photo gallery so you and your friends can download and share the photos as much as you want.
What are the dimensions of the photo pod?
Our Photo Pod is 800mm wide x 800mm long.
Our photo booths are equipped with a high quality camera and printer to ensure fantastic picture quality and speedy prints.
Do you provide a prop box?
Yes! The prop box will include an assortment of wigs, silly hats, funny glasses, plastic weapons, bling and more. An example of the types of items you may recieve is pictured below.
