(visited by Shawn Fleming)
03-Apr-2015 -- My wife and a good friend from college were on our way to Socorro, NM and would make a quick stop to visit this point along the way. Our ultimate goal for this trip was to visit the Trinity Site, where the first nuclear bomb was detonated 70 years ago, early the next morning. The site is now open twice a year again on the first Saturday of April and October. We had missed several previous opportunities and made firm plans to make it this year.
I used the Viewshed Tool in Google Earth Pro while preparing for this visit and determined that by parking directly abeam the point along Highway 12 and walking directly towards the point, our parking spot and path to the confluence would be completely masked by terrain as seen by the ranch south of the point.
We arrived abeam the point in the late afternoon. There were no signs posted along the fence and we parked where I had planned. My friend and I started towards the point after crossing a barbed wire fence and followed four pronghorn antelope eastward. My wife waited at the car and we stayed in radio contact throughout our hike. There was ample evidence (scat) of cows and bunnies as well as antelope on the mostly sandy ground with dried bunch grasses. Antelope were the only animals we saw.
It was fairly easy to obtain all zeroes at the confluence and we waited while my Trimble collected points. The view to the north has a small mountain range with a small cone at the left edge. The views in other directions had distant mountains except to the west where a small range was much closer. The southern view shows just the tops of the trees that surround the ranch house. The Viewshed Tool in Google Earth was extremely useful and accurate!
After an uneventful hike back we tried to make the Very Large Array Visitor Center before it closed but we were too late. We did manage to get several nice pictures of the sunset and we would be back in just another week when we could actually spend some time there.
The next morning, we got up very early to watch the Total Lunar Eclipse with some friends that had driven down from Albuquerque and then we were off towards the Stallion Gate to the White Sands Missile Range. We arrived at the gate around 07:30 and were about 100 cars from the gate that opened at 08:00. It was a neat drive out to the site – a place I had seen from the air several times. The monument itself was rather uneventful except for the historical significance and a very diverse set of visitors – many of them from other countries. On our way out, traffic was completely backed up the 5 miles from the gate to Hwy 380 with vehicles wanting to get in. They had a record number of visitors that day!
Differential correction reveals that my GPS receiver was .995 meters southwest of the actual confluence with a Horizontal Precision of 1.9 meters. Total round trip hike time was 41 minutes and 1.4 miles from where we parked. Our Trinity Site visit was complemented by our visit to Project Faultless on a trip we made later in the year.
What a great confluence adventure!

So you have decided to get out of the 9 to 5 rut and be on your own. Great decision indeed!
Few can muster the courage to take the actual plunge into a world of complete uncertainty.
And then, there are the naysayers who try to prove to you how wrong your decision was.
However, what you also gain with this decision is the ultimate opportunity to be on your own. Give your best when you are at your absolute peak, decide your work hours and be responsible for yourself. But with every decision to quit a job comes a massive responsibility that you must be ready to handle. Whatever you do from here on is going to define how you take care of yourself, your family and your complete financial future.
If under these circumstances, you decide to set up an offline business, I suggest you should have an immaculate plan to get things going for you. Considering the overall investment that you make, the resources you need to purchase, the people you have to hire – the list just goes on. However, considering the ease with which you can set up an online business today, things have gotten easier.
Yes, starting an online business gives you the added advantage of reaching out to an incredible audience size in one go. You must know what is it that you are really good at. So first things first, take a pen and paper and jot down what is it that people would come to you for, what problems can you help them solve and you should be underway. It could be an online training that helps people learn a new skill or it could be a physical product that you offer on your website. Either way, you must be assured that it solves the problem of a major target audience and these people should be willing to come to you and should also pay for it.
Once you know which problem you can solve, you can also know for whom you are solving the same. Is it the average middle management executive, age between 30 – 45 years of age, stays in a metropolitan area, management education taken and average income earned is between USD 3 – 5k per month. You must then understand where is it that you are most likely to find this audience, which social media communities or groups do they belong to and which platform can you engage the best with them.
It is now time for you to also decide on a name for your online business such that it resonates best with your buyer persona. It makes better sense to have a name that is most likely to register instantly in the minds of your audience and stay with them for easy recall. Something that is short and can be associated with fun things can make for great domain names. If you look at examples of a lot of online gurus already doing this like – quicksprout.com, hubspot.com or even backlinko.com you will realise that all these domain names are short and catchy with an easy recall value. You would like to visit the website of an existing domain registration company like Godaddy.com & check some of the names you find interesting to know if you can book them. If you like any, you can shortlist and book it instantly.
When you purchase a domain, the next step is it should be hosted. A web web hosting service provider offers you the technologies, services and resources required for your website to be viewed on the internet. Your website is thus hosted, or in simple words stored, on special computers called servers. When any user of the internet wants to view your website and enters your domain name web address in the browser, the computer connects to your server and your website is delivered to the user. There are many free hosting services but if you want to be in the online business for the long term, you must consider a paid hosting that offers all services you require. This ensures that your website is safe and allows your business to grow over time.
No you don't need to be a web designer or an expert to design or build your website. There are many different content management systems also referred to as CMS for you to choose from and your top priority must be choosing the right platform. You don't want to start building your site on a CMS platform and later find out that it's totally inappropriate for you and your website. There are many CMS like Joomla or Drupal or WordPress for you to choose from.
While there are some platforms that might require you to know a little bit of HTML / CSS or other coding languages, for beginners, there can be no better CMS than WordPress. 50 % of the world's websites today are being run on WordPress alone. The reason – WordPress is very user friendly and is the trustest platform for some of the busiest websites globally. It can be easily customised with plugins and you also can get drag and drop functionality to build your site easily. If you want to build simple small business website or a complex e-comerce site with thousands of products, it can be easily taken care of with WordPress. It is responsive, mobile friendly with a ready community of developers who are happy to help you with any thing if you get stuck. And the best part is – it is completely free!
An e-commerce model allows your website visitors to view your products, enter their information and make a secure purchase on your website. This software effectively stores your customer information and it makes a huge difference in making it easy for your customers to feel confident and safe about making a purchase on your website. There are a few all-inclusive e-commerce web services like Shopify as well that offer you the templates, credit card processing and many more features that make it easy for you to sell your products on the internet.
For most online businesses, setting up an online payment processing system could be considered to be a tedious task With the help of payment enabling services such as PayPal or Payoneer, it becomes possible for you to accept virtually any form of credit or debit card for your services. Should the need arise, you can also resolve any disputes related to payment made by customers, issue refunds as well as smoothen the entire payment collection process.
It is now time to add content on your website. Build focus on your key areas of expertise, and display them professionally. You can include descriptions, where appropriate or even add articles that can help your visitors make a buying decision. For any website, the primary aspect must he 'Why' or the reason for you to do business. This must be effectively communicated through your web pages. The 5 primary pages that you must definitely have on your website are: Home page, About us, Services / Products, Contact us and Blog (more on this in the next point). With each of these pages, your objective must be to slowly build trust and make your visitor want to keep coming back to you.
Irrespective of how much you may feel you don't need a blog, let me tell you this straight away – If you are running an online business, the chances of you being successful in the shortest possible time are 1000 times higher if you have a well populated blog. The first step for your online business to get visitors is for it to be first found in search engine results. So if you are running an online business for 'Digital Marketing Training' then any visitor who enters this term in a search engine must be able to then find you in the results list.
If you are not found here, there will not be many visits from searches on keywords relevant to your online business. Most search engines prefer to display search results that educate the reader on the topics they search for. Authoritative websites such as Hubspot, Quicksprout thus work a lot on educating their readers on the topics of their expertise and thus build trust. You should similarly start sharing your views and expertise through your blog and dramatically improve the chances of being found on the internet.
The online business world is increasingly about permission marketing today. This means that you must be able to get visitors come to you – Inbound is the way ahead. With online business, the idea is to get visitors engage with you on your website. You must share your expertise through your blog and also offer useful resources to download. Just imagine, if this visitor ever decides to make a purchasing decision, would he prefer to buy it from you or from some other random source he is not sure of? Your strategy for Inbound marketing must thus be to get them to share their Email ids with you for further communication. 70% people who visit your website may probably not find their way back to your site again. This means you only have just a few seconds of their time in which you can convince them to share further details about themselves. Once you have thus built your email list, you should make sure that you engage with them regularly by providing them valuable insights and resources.
With these 10 steps in place, you are well and truly on course to take your online business to the next level. You have a fully functional website that draws visitors with relevant content as well as blog articles and you have the mechanism to draw visitors. Once these visitors share their email ids with you, they give you permission to connect with them in the future. This is thus a great opportunity for you to take your online business up by several notches. Watch this blog for some more advanced and effective techniques to grow your online business exponentially. If you know of any more basic steps that are absolutely necessary to start your online business, please share with us in the comments.

Why was being "right" so wrong for one cetacean species?
Due to their thick layer of blubber that makes them float when dead, the North Atlantic Right Whale was the "right" species for whalers to slaughter for easy harvesting. The whales are harvested for the large amount of oil they contain, but with only 300-350 individuals estimated to be alive the north atlantic right whale is one of the most endangered whales in the world.
Which whale is hit by more vessels than any other?

Trauma Induced
October 8, 2012 Sports Illustrated
Growing concern over the prevalence of head injuries at all levels of sports led an award-winning filmmaker to study the problem
By Dan Greene Perhaps the most resonant scene in Head Games—the new documentary about brain injuries in sports released on Sept. 21—is a neurologist's evaluation of former Saints and Dolphins safety Gene Atkins. After he is unable to repeat a sequence of six digits, the 10-year NFL vet is asked to name the months between January and June. He begins answering: "January, May, April...." He's then asked which month precedes June. "July," he says, his gaze unflinching. Inspired by the 2006 book of the same name—written by former Harvard defensive lineman and WWE wrestler Chris Nowinski—the film chronicles the rise of concussion awareness in recent years. While much of the information is not new, director Steve James (Hoop Dreams) makes it compelling by attaching faces to the issue, which he approaches from multiple angles. He begins with Nowinski's own story and weaves in those of former NFL players Atkins and Tim Tyrrell, a 51-year-old ex-running back who, at one point in the film, forgets an anecdote in the midst of relating it. James shifts the film's focus between the plight of pros and that of young athletes and their guardians, including Chayse Primeau, the teenage hockey-playing son of 15-year NHL veteran Keith Primeau (who retired in '06 due to head injuries), and the young son of a Philadelphia pediatrician—a specialist in sports medicine—who continues to play hockey despite multiple concussions. James also spends time with the family of Owen Thomas, the Penn football player who committed suicide in 2010, and whose brain revealed signs of chronic traumatic encephalopathy, a degenerative brain disease that may be associated with repeated head trauma. "It's not really a film for fans," James says. "For me, it's a film for amateur athletes and their families ... who really have to make some very important decisions these days about participation in contact sports." In the movie, Boston University neurosurgeon Robert Cantu—the co-director of the school's Center for the Study of Traumatic Encephalopathy—emphasizes the disparity between the concern in the media about CTE and the lack of science on how to treat the condition. Yet even with the increased level of awareness, symptoms of head injuries are still under-reported by athletes at all levels in order to avoid being held out of play. James captures this dilemma in the interview with a mother of a 15-year-old soccer player who warily lauds her daughter's toughness. "She might not tell me," the mother says of potential concussion symptoms. She then turns toward her daughter to ask, "Right?" The girl, who has already suffered four concussions, and jokes on camera that she will someday experience early-onset dementia, illustrates the raison d'√™tre for James's film: She shrugs.

After quitting pot I understood that if I did not throw out every thing related to marijuana I would not succeed in quitting. I threw out all my pipes, papers, Grass City and every thing else that would tempt me back again to my old methods. If you are serious about altering your lifestyle you will have to do the exact same factor and use all the will-power that you can find in yourself. Quitting is not easy and it will consider financial loans of function to stay thoroughly clean.
Are you addicted to weed and grass and you want to stop the behavior? Though not an simple task but, it is not not possible. Sometimes it happens that you have a dual mind and 1 component is prepared to quit and the other does not. The decision needs to be taken by you and only you will have to take the final call.
Now, we People in america are a fairly puritanical great deal, but the stage is that most individuals do not abuse liquor and consequently by no means give any thought to whether or not they are drinking too a lot. They simply know they are not.It's just a small proportion that has anything to worry about and an even smaller percentage that ends up lifeless or in rehab.
This one's for all the Joe-6-Packs out there. Consuming video games are a tremendous way to interact with your group, move the time, and an extremely enjoyable way to get CRUNK in extremely little time.

The Repetition of Boot Camp constitutes the construction and the structuring of lifestyle. But life is so intriguingly fantastic, other than becoming repetitious, we should by no means concentrate too much on the Boot Camp component. When you watch a infant trying to stroll. And it falls so numerous occasions you can't count them all. You quit and stare into their eyes. Their eyes are alive with sparkling expectation. Unless of course they are really hurting, they will just maintain on keeping on. And then that moment occurs and their actions turn into piston-firing marches all over the back garden.
I discovered that most of my "pot-cigarette smoking" friends had been all for me giving up and were even proud. Nevertheless, I couldn't inquire or power any of them to quit smoking cannabis with me. Viewing them smoke and move round a joint in between each other was killing me! Once again why would you put temptation in entrance of you. When you finally stop smoking pot as soon as and for all, you will realize what a great choice you've made. Nevertheless by hanging out with the same buddies, believe me, it won't be long before you revert back to your old ways!

Here goes the way I'm making cinnamon rolls, from now, 'til time immemorial. The ingredients are heavily borrowed from this wildly good recipe that lots of you linked me to, but the method is much more slap-it-all-together.
Now, you just fling all of your dough ingredients into a bowl, mixing thoroughly. Pretty quickly, it should become smooth enough to knead with floured hands. This dough is so smooth...it's just beautiful to work with. When you can pat it into a ball, put it back into the floured mixing bowl and let it rest for a little while (maybe 15 minutes). If you're going to bake them immediately, pre-heat the oven to 400.
After it has rested, come back to your dough and roll it out into a rectangle on a floured surface. Take your allotted softened butter, and spread it across the surface with a spoon or spatula. Then sprinkle liberally with cinnamon and brown sugar. Roll up into a roll, and then slice. This is where you must decide whether or not to be insane. You can form this batch into two enormous rolls, or 4 smaller, more sane ones. I recommend the sane route. The huge ones are lovely and impressive to look at, but they have trouble cooking to the center thoroughly, and quite frankly, might send you into a coma.
Now, when you have your buns, you can either pop them into your preheated oven (using a greased pan) or, and this achieves slightly better results, put them in the refrigerator overnight and bake them the next morning. Either way, you want to bake them for around 15 minutes (or slightly more if you made the huge ones).
Then, whip together the few frosting ingredients, and spread over the warm rolls when they emerge from the oven.
Now you have cinnamon rolls to enjoy...and if you're only two people like we are, you will have some to enjoy tomorrow morning, too!


Medicare's Advantage plans are available through many different insurance companies. AARP is one of many, but it is one of the more prestigious insurance providers. The AARP Medicare Advantage plans for 2019 are bound to be among the most popular of what will be available then.
You can sign up for AARP's Advantage plan simply by calling the company or visiting their website and enrolling for their Advantage coverage. If you have a plan already, then you may have to drop that current plan. Some medical insurance plans are compatible with Medicare Advantage plans, and others are not. For instance, Medicare Supplement plans are not compatible, but your union or employer medical plan may be compatible. It all depends on the plan and what it covers. If there is any overlap, then that plan won't be allowed. You have to drop one of your plans, if they overlap in any way. Medicare isn't going to allow you to sign up for two plans at the same time that share the same coverage.
If you sign up for an AARP Advantage plan, then you are guaranteed certain basic medical coverage. The coverage can change from one plan to the next and from one area of the country to the next. That's up to AARP in some respects. They are allowed to add certain coverage to the basic Advantage plan and spruce up its coverage.
What they cannot do, however, is change that basic coverage. That's coverage that has been designed and approved by Medicare. Let's look at exactly what that coverage entails.
The basic Medicare coverage will take care of all the Original Medicare plan. That's Medicare parts A and B, which includes cover for inpatient and outpatient expense, such as surgeries, x-rays, in-hospital services, ambulatory care, doctor's visits and much more. Also included in the basic coverage is your emergency medical care and the urgently needed services you may need from time to time. These may not be expenses that you need covered more than a few times a year, if that, but they can be very expensive, and they can be unexpected, so it makes sense to have them covered. This is especially true as you get older and your health tends to falter. Most seniors benefit from that kind of coverage for their medical care.
This was all just basic coverage we have talked about so far that all AARP Advantage plans and other kinds of Advantage plans have to offer. They are required by Medicare to provide at least this basic level of coverage. However, they are allowed to cover even more. There are a few items of coverage that are typically added onto the basic coverage. These are usually coverage for checkups and the related medical items that are prescribed after the checkup (eyeglasses, hearing aids, etc.) and Medicare Part D, which provides coverage for prescription drugs.
There are other items of coverage that may be included in Medicare Advantage plans- those offered by AARP as well as those offered by other insurance companies. What is added to the plans is often up to the insurance companies, and Medicare doesn't really interfere in added coverage. It just requires that there be the basic coverage we already mentioned. Most insurance companies will include only the items we already listed, though, so you should have a good idea of what kind of coverage will be included.
There are lot of options for you to pick from for insurance providers for your Advantage coverage. If you decide that you do want Medicare Advantage to provide some coverage for your medical care, then AARP is one of the better choices. It may not have the price that's the most affordable for you or the best coverage for everyone, but they do tend to offer a lot of member benefits.
They have a reputation that has held up for decades, and seniors trust them and rely on them for all sorts of services that assist with their day-to-day living and with their big decisions in life. The AARP Medicare Advantage plans for 2019 are bound to be some of their most value-packed services, but they offer a lot of other insurance coverage and various senior services related to healthcare.
AARP is one of the most prestigious insurance companies because of its legacy and their wide range of services, but seniors do need to be aware that there are often cheaper options for Medicare Advantage coverage. However, those other options may not give seniors the same kind of access to such a wide range of services as AARP does. That's why so many choose them over cheaper options.
Medicare Advantage plans are not something you want to sign up for on whim. They are among the most comprehensive medical insurance plans available, and that means that you should only consider one if you have carefully assessed your current coverage and found it is wanting. You should only need this kind of coverage if you are faced with regular visits to the doctor, emergency care or the hospital in general.
Of course, there are very pulled back and restrained Advantage plans, such as the ones that only offer the basic advantage coverage. Those are good choices for just about anyone. However, not everyone needs even that coverage. You will have to look at what your expenses are and how often you have to pay them to determine what kind of coverage you need.
You may just want the blanket of security that a Medicare Advantage plan provides. These plans come in very useful for a wide range of people. If you just want some extra insurance coverage to alleviate your fears about unexpected medical expenses, then it's not a bad idea to sign up for an affordable Medicare plan.
AARP could be a good option for you, but you should look at your other option as well. AARP has its own set Advantage plans for 2019 that it offers, and those may not be the right choice for you. You are only going to know what will work best for you if you first assess your current and near-future needs and then, secondly, compare the plans that are available. You can find one that is an excellent fit for you and your healthcare needs, but you need to take the time to look at what's on offer and compare and contrast the plans and what they are providing for you.
If you are in the market for an Advantage plan, though, you should definitely consider what AARP is offering. They are a respected and well-known company that has a long history in the business of medical insurance plans. Their stability and their customer service record make them a plum choice for any senior, no matter what their needs are. It's possible their plans will cost more than you can afford to pay, and if that is the case then you need to find another insurance provider for this coverage.
Don't give up on finding the right Medicare insurance plan. If you decided that you need Advantage coverage, then look at what's available to you and compare those plans to get the best deal and the best price on coverage. You won't necessarily have to pay a lot to get the coverage that you need.
AARP Medicare Advantage plans for 2019 offer you some excellent coverage and come with a reputation for great customer service and member benefits. They should be on your list of possible plans for you to sign up for, and you should look closely at what they have to offer. Only by considering all your choices can you ensure that you make the best decision.


Many individuals claim, that Puffy Mattress is without a doubt, one of the most comfortable mattresses available. They frequently compare it to enjoy sleeping on a cloud. Also, clients suffering from back pain, say that they feel relief with Puffy's Adaptive Flexible Cloud Technology. With Puffy, you get both a 101 night sleep trial, alongside a lifetime guarantee.
Incredible mattress to your money. Very high quality mattress. It does take 2 days before the Puffy Mattress is shipped; because the mattress is made to order.
The milder side of the mattress is made up of 3 inches of copper infused memory foam. It's a 3.5lb density, and is a very comfortable layer. This is a fairly thick layer of memory foam, which is a soft fabric that will permit the sleeper to sink for pressure relief.
Nest Bedding actually holds the award for both the Best Rated and Best Ranked brand online. They really thrive from the customer satisfaction. They offer a lifetime warranty, as well as a lifetime comfort guarantee.
Nest Bedding comes in several different firmness choices. Almost too many. They consist of a latex, 2 memory foam and 3 hybrid mattress choices in their lineup. To be sure, you can get the mattress that is the best alternative for you.Therefore it doesn't matter if you're thicker, lighter, sleep on your side, or you cope with chronic pain. Nest can match your own preferences.
The Nature's Sleep mattress differs from many mattress manufacturers on the market, as it's made with 4 layers of foam. These 4 layers lend a hand in helping support heavier people. Additionally, it helps out by decreasing motion transfer.
The 2 biggest aspects when looking to purchase a new mattress, is comfort and also support. There are a number of things that should occur when you lie down. You want the sinkage and contour to be appropriate, for proper spine alignment. You also need a mattress to correctly support your body, as you sleep at night. It is imperative to have proper alignment from top to bottom as you sleep. This is necessary to make sure you get a healthy rest, and to ensure you are reducing your neck and back pain. While being supportive of your body, a suitable mattress must provide stress relief. The stress points in your body are precisely what is in control of you thrashing during the evening. Memory Foam mattresses have earned their way into the spotlight, by not only being comfortable, but as equally supportive.
This is along the same lines, as when we talk about comfort and support. Just like a mattress should never be too hard, it should never be too soft.A mattress should be as neutral as it can be, to make sure both your body and spine remain in a neutral position. Too much rigidity in a mattress will irritate the stress variables, making pinched nerves, in addition to the blood to stop flowing. If you find that a lot of the times you awake, with the feeling of getting pins and needles in your body, this is an indicator of a mattress that's too rigid. And if your mattress is too soft, this can create a sagging effect, similar to a hammock. When this happens, you can find yourself with back pain, because of your spine not being correctly aligned. This is why it's crucial to find a mattress that is close to neutral. You need your mattress soft in the right places, without being too soft. But you also need your mattress to be supportive, without being too rigid.

New Delhi: During the first week of January 2017, a group of Indian scholars gathered in a white bungalow on a leafy boulevard in central New Delhi. The focus of their discussion: how to rewrite the history of the nation.
The government of Prime Minister Narendra Modi had quietly appointed the committee of scholars about six months earlier. Details of its existence are reported here for the first time.
The committee's chairman, KN Dikshit, told Reuters, "I have been asked to present a report that will help the government rewrite certain aspects of ancient history." The committee's creator, Culture Minister Mahesh Sharma, confirmed in an interview that the group's work was part of larger plans to revise India's history.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi did not respond to a request for comment for this article.
Helping to drive the debate over Indian history is an ideological, nationalist Hindu group called the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS). It helped sweep Narendra Modi's Bharatiya Janata Party to power in 2014 and now counts among its members the ministers in charge of agriculture, highways and internal security.
The RSS asserts that ancestors of all people of Indian origin - including 172 million Muslims - were Hindu and that they must accept their common ancestry as part of Bharat Mata, or Mother India. Narendra Modi has been a member of the RSS since childhood. An official biography of Culture Minister Sharma says he too has been a "dedicated follower" of the RSS for many years.
Hindu nationalists and senior figures in Modi's party reject the idea that India was forged from a mass migration. They believe that today's Hindu population is directly descended from the land's first inhabitants. Historian Romila Thapar said the question of who first stood on the soil was important to nationalists because "if the Hindus are to have primacy as citizens in a Hindu Rashtra (kingdom), their foundational religion cannot be an imported one." To assert that primacy, nationalists need to claim descent from ancestors and a religion that were indigenous, said Thapar, 86, who taught at Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) in New Delhi for decades and has authored books on ancient Indian history.
According to the minutes of the history committee's first meeting, Dikshit, the chairman, said it was "essential to establish a correlation" between ancient Hindu scriptures and evidence that Indian civilisation stretches back many thousands of years. Doing so would help bolster both conclusions the committee wants to reach: that events described in Hindu texts are real, and today's Hindus are descendants of those times.
With an annual budget of about USD 400 million - an important source of federal funding for historical research, archaeology and the arts - the Culture Ministry is an influential place to start a campaign of historical revision.

Q: How to upload jpg to google drive using google drive api? I'm trying to upload a jpg file onto google drive using the api but i'm not having much luck. Although the code does run without errors, the "image" saved in my google drive is untitled and doesn't actually contain data.
Here's how I'm doing it right now in Python:
post_body = "grant_type=refresh_token&client_id={}&client_secret={}&refresh_token={}".format(client_id, client_secret, refresh_token)

r = requests.post(refresh_url, data=post_body, headers={"Content-Type" : "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"})

r_json = json.loads(r.text)
access_token = r_json["access_token"]

media = MediaFileUpload(filename, mimetype="image/jpeg", resumable=True)

body = {
        "name" : filename,
        "mimeType" : "image/jpeg"
       }

drive_url = "https://www.googleapis.com/upload/drive/v3/files?uploadType=media"
drive_r = requests.post(drive_url, data=body, headers={"Authorization": "Bearer " + access_token, "Content-type": "image/jpeg"})

When I print drive_r.text, the response I'm getting back is this:
{
 "kind": "drive#file",
 "id": "1Vt4gP***************",
 "name": "Untitled",
 "mimeType": "image/jpeg"
}

A: From your script, I understood that you want to upload a file to Google Drive without using googleapis for Python. In this case, I would like to propose the following modification.
Modification points:

*

*In your script, the data from the file is not included in the request body.

*You use uploadType=media. But it seems that you want to include the file metadata. In this case, please use uploadType=multipart.

Pattern 1:
If the file size you want to upload is less than 5 MB, you can use the following script. uploadType=multipart is used.
Modified script:
import json
import requests

access_token = r_json["access_token"] # This is your script for retrieving the access token.
filename = '###'  # Please set the filename with the path.

para = {"name": filename}
files = {
    'data': ('metadata', json.dumps(para), 'application/json'),
    'file': open(filename, "rb")
}
r = requests.post(
    "https://www.googleapis.com/upload/drive/v3/files?uploadType=multipart",
    headers={"Authorization": "Bearer " + access_token},
    files=files
)
print(r.text)

Pattern 2:
If the file size you want to upload is more than 5 MB, you can use the following script. uploadType=resumable is used.
Modified script:
import json
import os
import requests

access_token = r_json["access_token"] # This is your script for retrieving the access token.
filename = '###'  # Please set the filename with the path.

filesize = os.path.getsize(filename)
params = {
    "name": filename,
    "mimeType": "image/jpeg"
}
r1 = requests.post(
    "https://www.googleapis.com/upload/drive/v3/files?uploadType=resumable",
    headers={"Authorization": "Bearer " + access_token, "Content-Type": "application/json"},
    data=json.dumps(params)
)
r2 = requests.put(
    r1.headers['Location'],
    headers={"Content-Range": "bytes 0-" + str(filesize - 1) + "/" + str(filesize)},
    data=open(filename, 'rb')
)
print(r2.text)

Note:

*

*These sample scripts supposes that your access token can be used for uploading the file to Google Drive.

Last week, the territory of Nagypáli (Hungary) won the E.ON Energy Globe Award in the municipality category, rewarding them for their efforts in sustainability. Nagypáli started the "Green Road Village Development Programme" twenty years ago. As a result of the programme, today almost all forms of renewable energy are displayed in the center of the village: emerald trees, hybrid power plants (wind and solar), photovoltaic solar panels, electric cars and electric filling stations in the village.
The next step is a biogas plant which is currently under project management. This unique programme encompasses residents and elected representatives that are doing their best to be the more sustainable possible.
La participation des citoyens pour l'élaboration des décisions publiques ayant une incidence sur l'environnement s'outille suite aux réformes de 2016 sur la consultation locale et les procédures de participation. De quoi parle ces réformes ? Quelles sont les nouvelles obligations légales ? Et surtout quels sont les outils à disposition des collectivités pour les mettre en place ? La DREAL Bourgogne Franche-Comté en lien avec l'Institut de la concertation et de la participation citoyenne (ICPC) et FNE BFC "Plateau Débat public" organise une journée dédié au sujet intitulée : "Pas de transition écologique et solidaire sans pouvoir d'agir ! De nouvelles règles pour de nouvelles pratiques ?".
RURENER était présent et vous propose de partager son Compte Rendu de cette journée passée en compagnie d'acteurs d'acteurs associatifs, de collectivités territoriales mais aussi du commissariat général au développement durable et de porteurs de projets privés comme SNCF Réseau et EDF Energies Nouvelles.
Then, the two diagnoses are crossed in order to interlock energy transition and local dynamics. It allows the territories to understand the link between final user needs and local resources.
This analysis is then used to make prospective scenarios by evaluating local potentials such as renewable potentials (solar, wind, hydro…) and by implementing local energy policies and projects integrated to local dynamics. This part of the scenario is all about planning what will be developed and when, while identifying local stakeholders. Then, we provide help for territories to understand and identify the financial levers that are available to support their projects.
• Job growth due to energy transition: Energy transition is a great employment vector in many fields: refurbishment, renewables, monitoring, maintenance… The tool to complete this indicator makes scenarios of job creation over a 2050 projection. It includes direct and indirect jobs and deducts the destroyed jobs. This tool is only available in France at the moment and is based on national studies that are used to build projections.
• Perception survey of local energy transition policies: the goal is to measure citizens' perception and level of awareness of local energy policies. It is fundamental to involve citizens in the energy transition and this indicator will evaluate the level of involvement of citizens and thus give information on how to best engage the dialogue for an inclusive sustainable local development and reinforce social cohesion.
• Avoided GHG emissions: any action being part of an energy transition approach contributes to lowering the level of emissions in our atmosphere by being cleaner and greener. Avoided emissions are the difference of GHG emissions between a renewable and a fossil source of energy for the same final use.
Contribute with us to the European Sustainable Energy Week!
You are all warmly invited. We want this event to be your event too, so tell us about your insights and the subjects you would like to discuss by commenting this post. All constructive contributions are welcome, don't miss this opportunity to bring up your questions and achievments directly to Brussels.
If you are not able to make it to Brussels no worries, the session will be recorded and displayed on the website.
How to link the European policies to local actions? Not so easy of a task but through the European Countryside Movement (ECM), RURENER is taking part in the European platform working at the European level to promote policies and tools for the integrated development of rural areas. In response to the first official draft of the CAP reforming process under the title "The Future of Food and Farming" by the European Commission, the ECM published a communication entitled "What implications for rural development?" (for French: MER-Com2018-1-FR). RURENER is very much in line with the increased effort to combine agricultural practices with climate action, mentionned in the European Commission document and confirmed by Mihail Dumitru (DG Agri) last Monday 19th of March during an event on "Funding the integrated development of rural territories".
On January 30th, 31st and February 1st, took place the European Days for the Energy Transition in Geneva, Switzerland. Historically organized in Dunkerque and Bordeaux (alternatively), the meeting took place in Geneva in 2018, opening the circle. A very dense programme for the 3 days event opened with plenary sessions on national policies in France and Switzerland under the theme "cooperate to undertake the energy transition". What are the stakeholders of the energy transition? Where to invest for the transition? A comparative approach between France and Switzerland outlined two national roadmaps with a common objective of reaching the Paris Agreement goals. While Switzerland is a federal state (divided in "cantons") with a lot of power at the state level, many grid operators for electricity and a strong dialogue with the citizens in the "canton of Geneva", France is focused on a national approach with one main grid operator (Edf) and difficulties to include the diversity of local stakeholders and contexts. During the event, workshops were organized to discuss specific subjects such as remunicipalisation of energy, social acceptance of local mobility policies, citizens' action through energy cooperatives, indirect emissions of local public policies, etc. A rich array of European projects where also presented to illustrate current innovations and initiatives in urban and rural areas. Finally, the Citergie awards were attributed to pilot territories. The European Days were concluded by a discussion between policy makers from Europe (Germany, Italy, Spain) and beyond (Morocco). The discussion highlighted that there is no ideal way to achieve the transition but rather million different ways and they all have strengths and weaknesses. The political decisions at the national and European levels must give the framework for climate action but action comes from the ground, the territories, you and me. So let's roll our sleeves up and take action because the world is not waiting on us to warm up!
Large investment programme in France to benefit rural areas?
The French government is launching its 3rd PIA "Programme for Investing in the Future" with a call for expression of Interest last September to prepare for the call for proposal that will be open during the third term of 2018. The Call for Expression of Interest received more than 110 candidates and 24 were selected to receive 400 000€ to conduct feasibility studies (up to 50% funding) and strengthen their applications for the Call for projects in a few months. Among the 24 laureates for the EoI, the project HAPPI (stands for Hub to Support Innovative Partnership Project) Montana coordinated by Macéo was selected. It gathers about 80 partners from urban and rural territories in the French central mountain range (Massif central).
The goal? Boost and spread innovation in mountainous areas to fasten the development of the region and France as a whole. As partner, RURENER will be involved in facilitating territorial dialogue on energy project, and increase the dissemination of the experimentations in greater Europe. An ambitious project benefiting from a fantastic energy!
Before you read this, go take a look at the report of ENER'Cyprus, RURENER 2017 General Assembly (especially if you missed it)!
What are the main conclusions for 2017?
RURENER current project "2017 Year of Innovation for Rural Energy" is under progress, the four actions are developed in France for now and will expand to Europe in the coming months.
New cooperation projects are being developed though the Interreg SUDOE and H2020 European programmes.
RURENER strengthened its connection with the European Countryside Movement (ECM) in Brussels to reinforce its lobbying action for rural energy. RURENER is fully supporting the writing of a European Rural Agenda, as promoted by the RED (Rurality Environment Development) and the ECM. Complementary to the current Urban Agenda, the Rural Agenda will be in favor of an integrated sustainable development of rural territories in their diversity. As such, it will help rural territories to get recognition at the EU level for their role in European challenges we are facing today: recognition of the great potential of rural territories for production of renewable energy, promotion of local resources and value chains, re-localization of the economy for a tailored answer to climate changes. The Rural Agenda will strengthen cooperation within the rural context, cope with the imbalance between urban and rural areas and explore the synergies of these poles: decentralized energy production at local levels, outreach of urban innovation centers to support rural innovation, development of cleaner transports and digitized solutions and much more. For all these reasons, RURENER is strongly in favor of a European Rural Agenda, a necessary tool for a transversal approach of rural (but not only) development.
In 2018 we will continue to support rural territories developing their energy strategy towards the energy transition, we will continue to develop tools to facilitate the transition, we will continue to be a bridge between rural energy stakeholders across Europe and enhance cooperation between them and, of course, we will continue to bring rural innovations up at the European level. In 2018, the RURENER will also be growing with the recruitment of two new interns to help us turn ideas into actions.
To make a long story short, in 2018 it will be: new projects, new services, reinforced communication, strong cooperation, and a lot of human energy and enthusiasm!
A brand new year has just begun, and we hope that you are all making good resolutions to develop rural renewable energy production, improve energy efficiency, encourage energy savings and involve everyone around you in the great journey of the energy transition.
Supporting you, municipalities, networks, organizations, cooperatives, local businesses and other rural energy stakeholders, to achieve the energy transition, is our resolution at RURENER. In order to do so we will develop more services, build new projects and continue to connect stakeholders from all over Europe to grow together in a sustainable way.
Come along and seize the opportunity of the energy transition for rural development!
Happy 2018, may it be rich in innovations, experiences and exchanges.

Every once in a while, I get asked the question "who has time for social media?". The answer to that is "nearly everyone", you just have to use the right tools and manage your time . There are some great tools you can use to both get the information you're looking for without all the extra junk, and tools to get your info out without a lot of hassle. The tools I'm sharing with you today will help you in both areas.
1) Hootsuite – this is a tool I have used for many years. There is a free and a paid tier, depending on how much you need to manage. The strengths of Hootsuite are that it can schedule posts (the autoschedule feature is excellent), and it can post to multiple social media accounts at once.
2) Tweetjukebox – One of the "tricks" of a strong social media presence is the use of "evergreen" content. This is content that is timely if you use it now, or repeat it months or weeks from now. After you develop some of this content, how do you have it fill in places in your twitter feed scheduling? That is where tweetjukebox.com comes in. You can feed it a list of tweets (or use some of their prebuilt lists of quotes, Bible verses, sayings, etc…) and set your schedule and turn it loose. There is a free version with limits, or a paid tier with a lot more functionality as well.
3) Flipboard – Flipboard is a tool I use for onsuming content tailored to the subjects and people I am following on social media. Some liken it to type of digital magazine. It has some great sharing features built in to the app. For example, I can share directly to Hootsuite, allowing the strengths of both apps.
4) Medium– Medium is a Web based "community" that allows for the sharing of ideas and content. It has some great built in features for migrating content from other articles you have written, for example. If you are planning to start blogging for the first time, this is a great platform to start with. It's also a great tool to get more exposure for content you have already written.
So, there you have it. Here are four of the tools I use on a regular basis in Social media. What tools would you add to the list?


May I just point out that while Tolkien wasn't writing for ADD teenagers, but yet is still read by ADD teenagers today. Even if they're not ADD, a LOT of teens--and younger--have read LotR (and are shocked when I say I haven't).
I personally like the discriptions Paolini adds to his writing, and it makes sense for Eragon to be so aware of nature (which is probably the thing most described) having been raised on a farm and hunting for his family. That is most likely a major part of Paolini's personality also, but it fits Eragon.
I wasn't that thrilled with Brisingr, either, because of Arya's sudden decision to be open instead of snippy with Eragon, and during Eragon's time in Tronjheim I was ready to scream because the pace of the book was so slow.
Overall the thing lacked zing of some sort, and I thought the writing style had changed somehow, but I did not find it overly descriptive.
Yay for a review from Laura! Loved hearing your opinions on this one.

Jeremy Brand | 16:41 25/07/12
Toronto, Canada – Thrill-seeking UFC® 152 main event and co-main event fighters Joseph Benavidez and Demetrious Johnson, and Michael Bisping and Brian Stann, found themselves on top of the Western Hemisphere on Wednesday, squaring off for their UFC® 152 bouts from the ledge of the iconic CN Tower in Toronto.
In town to announce that tickets for the inaugural and historic flyweight championship fight on September 22 at Air Canada Centre will go on sale to the general public on Friday, July 27, the fighters went on the EdgeWalk, a terrifying "walk" on the 1,168 ft ledge of the 1,875 ft-tall CN Tower. Towering over the Toronto harbour and cityscape, the world's top 125-pound fighters, Joseph Benavidez andDemetrious Johnson squared off as they took in the view from the world's fifth-tallest and the Western Hemisphere's tallest free-standing structure. Following closely behind them on the world's highest full-circle, hands-free walk, UFC® middleweight title contenders Michael Bisping and Brian Stann squared off for their highly anticipated co-main event. The fighters were tethered to an overhead rail system and walked around the edge of the CN Tower's main pod above the 360 Restaurant on a 1.5-metre (4.9 ft) metal floor.
UFC® 152: BENAVIDEZ vs. JOHNSON on September 22 marks the second of three UFC® events taking place in Canada in 2012, following UFC®149: FABER vs. BARAO in Calgary this past Saturday and ahead of UFC® 154 in Montreal on November 17. The UFC® 152 card will also feature the return of UFC® legend BJ Penn, as he takes on rising Canadian welterweight star Rory MacDonald. In addition, Calgary's TJ Grant looks to extend his winning streak to three when he meets Evan Dunham in a lightweight contest. Additional fights will be announced at www.ufc.com in the weeks to come.

On Friday, December 28 — the birthday of jailed Nobel Peace Prize recipient Liu Xiaobo — a group of activists made a daring visit to the residence of his wife, Liu Xia, currently under house arrest.
You can watch them in the above video, uploaded yesterday to the YouTube account of Hu Jia, activist/dissident and director of the June Fourth Heritage and Culture Association. Hu writes that he and Hao Jian, Liu Di and Xu Youyu, among others, arrived at about 9 pm and basically overpowered a surprised guard. They stayed with an astonished and obviously apprehensive Liu Xia for three minutes before willfully taking their leave, just before "large quantities" of security personnel rushed up to intercept.
It's a gripping and emotional video. Check it out.
[Hu Jia] later told AFP that after leaving the apartment the group were detained momentarily by the guards but eventually allowed to leave.
"The video is all about fear and anxiety," Hu said. "She has already lost a lot of hope. The authorities are making her fearful. What she is afraid of is her family will come under pressure.
…"For two years, they have only allowed Liu Xia to visit her parents and go see Liu Xiaobo, no one else. She is like a political prisoner, when she meets her husband it is a meeting between prisoners," Hu said.
