I have decided to post a series of three articles on Certificate Services offered by Microsoft , which is known as Active Directory Certificate Service (AD CS). This is the first article of that series.
Before we start our discussion on AD CS, we need to understand how Digital Certificate works in general. Once we discuss and understand all the relevant terminologies and concepts related to Digital Certificate, our discussion on AD CS would be fruitful.
This article is dedicated to the understanding of the Digital Certificate and associated terminologies.
It is important to remember that Microsoft AD CS is mainly for Enterprise, and unlike the Global Certificate Authorities (CA), the validity of Microsoft CA is valid within a well defined boundary, which is typically within the organisation which is deploying AD CS. We will discuss Global CA and will compare that with Active Directory based Enterprise CA. For a Certificate Administrator, it is important to understand the difference between a Global CA and an Enterprise CA. Most of the large organisations typically use both external and internal CAs for different purposes.
Let's start our discussion from the very basic of Cryptography, which is Encryption.
Encryption is a process, by which information can be transformed (encoded) in such a format, that only authorized parties can read (decode) the information, and unauthorized parties cannot. The purpose of encrypting information is to protect the sensitive data from unauthorized use.
Generally, encryption uses complex mathematical algorithms to encrypt and decrypt information.
An encryption key is a random string of bits used by the encryption algorithm to encrypt the information.
From encryption standpoint, a message which is not encrypted is called Clear Text. The encrypted message is commonly referred as Cipher Text.
During a secure communication, this encrypted information (Cipher Text) is being sent from sender to the recipient.
1) The algorithm used during Encryption. The same algorithm needs to be used during decryption.
2) The recipient must have the decryption key.
Using the decryption key along with the decryption algorithm, the encrypted information can be decoded back to Clear Text.
In a symmetric encryption algorithm, both the sender and the recipient use the same key to encrypt and decrypt the message.
In an Asymmetric encryption algorithm, sender and the recipient use different keys to encrypt and decrypt the message.
These two keys, or key pairs are called Public Key and Private Key, which we will cover in the next section.
In an Asymmetric encryption system, each participant needs to have a key pair, a private key and corresponding public key.
Private Key , as the name suggests, is a key that is known only to the sender who possess it, and not known to anybody else. For a computer, the Private key is stored locally within that computer which is not accessible from any other computer.
Public Key, on the other hand, can be shared to anyone.
It is important to note that, any data which is encrypted using the private Key can be decrypted by corresponding Public Key (not by any other Public Key). Similarly, any data which is encrypted using the Public Key can be decrypted by corresponding Private Key (not by any other Private Key).
Also, a data which is encrypted by a Private Key, cannot be decrypted by the same Private Key. Similarly, a data which is encrypted by a Public Key, cannot be decrypted by the same Public Key.
It is very important to keep the private key secret. In case the private key is compromised, the entire encryption system using that Private-Public key pair becomes insecure. In such a scenario, it is better to generate a new key pair and reconfigure the encryption system.
Let’s assume a scenario, where Computer A wants to share some information to Computer B, and the information would be exchanged over Asymmetric Encryption.
• Computer B shares its Public key to computer A.
• Computer A encrypts the data using the Public Key of Computer B. Now, this becomes a Cipher text which can be opened only using Computer B’s Private Key.
• Computer A sends the encrypted data to Computer B over the network. Even if this data is captured by unwanted parties, it cannot be decrypted as nobody (except Computer B) has the Private Key of Computer B.
• Once the information is received by Computer B, it decrypts the data using its Private Key.
In this way, information is shared securely using Asymmetric Key.
A session key is a single-use symmetric key used for encrypting messages in one communication session.
As the names suggests, a session key is valid for only a single session or transaction. This makes the hackers difficult to break the key, because for every session (even between the same sender and receiver) the session key gets changed.
Please note that encryption using the Session Key is a Symmetric type of Encryption. This means that unlike Private-Public Key Pair, the information is encrypted and decrypted using the same key, the Session Key.
Why do we need session key, when we are already using Asymmetric Key? This is because although Asymmetric Encryption is secure, it is complex, slow and consumes more computer resource. So typically, the Asymmetric Encryption is used only at the beginning of the session, just to share the Session Key in a secure manner. Once the Session Key is shared securely, then rest of the communication generally happens using the Session Key.
• Computer A already has the Public Key of Computer B.
• Computer A randomly generates a Session Key, and encrypts the Session Key using the Public Key of Computer B.
• Computer A sends the encrypted Session Key to Computer B over the network. Even if this Session Key is captured by unwanted parties, it cannot be decrypted as nobody (except Computer B) has the Private Key of Computer B.
• Once the Session Key is received by Computer B, it decrypts the Session Key using its Private Key.
• Now that both the Computer has the Session Key, the rest of the transaction would take place using that Session Key.
• Once the transaction is over and session is terminated (Ex: Logging of from the Application/ Browser) , the Session Key becomes invalid.
A Digital Certificate is a digital form of identification, like a passport or an Identity Card. A digital certificate certifies information about the identity of an entity. That entity can be an individual, an organization or a computer.
In real world, the identity cards or passports are issued by a recognized trusted party like a Government Organization. Similarly, Digital certificates are issued by recognized trusted parties known as Certificate Authority (CA).
There are some Certificate Authorities which are globally recognized and trusted, like VeriSign. A Certificate issued by VeriSign is trusted by most of the Internet Browsers in the world. Therefore, if an organization or an individual can obtain a certificate issued by VeriSign, that certificate would be trusted by almost all the browsers.
Apart from the globally recognized CAs, there are some CAs which are trusted within a certain boundary. The most common example of such CA is the Active Directory based Enterprise CA, which is trusted by all computers which are part of that AD Forest. However, certificate issued by that Enterprise CA will not be trusted globally, as computers outside that forest does not trust that Certificate Authority.
Like the real world, when an entity requests for a Certificate to a CA, the credentials of the entity is verified offline by the CA. Once the verification is successful, the CA issues a Digital certificate to that entity.
A CSR is an encoded text file that is given to a Certificate Authority when applying for an SSL Certificate.
While generating the CSR, the Private- Public key pair is generated automatically. The Private Key is securely stored in a location within the computer, from where the CSR wizard has been executed. The Public Key is attached with the CSR file.
• Location, City and Country of the Entity.
• Name of the entity to which the Certificate has been issued.
• The CA (Certificate Authority) name, who issued the Digital Certificate.
• Public Key of the Entity, which was shared by the entity while making Certificate Request.
• Certificate type, purpose , encryption algorithm.
Once the requesting entity receives the certificate from the CA, it imports the certificate to its keystore. Keystore is a location where all the digital certificates are stored securely.
While importing the certificate in the keystore, the handshaking between the Public Key (encoded in the certificate) and corresponding private key (stored within the computer) happens. For this, the certificate needs to be imported in the same computer from where the CSR was generated, because that is the only computer which has the corresponding Private Key.
If the Certificate needs to be imported to some other computer or device, then the private key needs to be exported to that computer’s or device’s keystore.
Hash Algorithms are one way algorithms, which are used to verify the integrity of an encrypted message.
It is important to understand the difference between an Encryption Algorithm and a Hash Algorithm. Encryption Algorithms are used to encrypt a message which can be decrypted by using a decryption key, so it is a two way algorithm. Hash Algorithm, on the other hand, is a one way algorithm.
When Hash Algorithm is applied to a particular message, it produces a Digest. Since it is a one way function, it is technically impossible to determine (re generate) the original content from the Digest.
Hash Algorithm is used to verify the integrity of a message, whereas Encryption Algorithm is used to encrypt the content of the message.
Popular Hash Algorithms are SHA-1 and SHA-2. Please note that Microsoft (and many other vendors) no longer considers SHA-1 as secured Hash Algorithm, and recommends using SHA-2. Also, the SHA-2 family consists of six hash functions with digests that are 224, 256, 384 or 512 bits: SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512, SHA-512/224, SHA-512/256.
It is highly unlikely that two different sources will produce same Hash value. If that ever happens, we call it a collision.
Improvements with the SHA-2 algorithm greatly decrease the likelihood of ever producing a collision.
Also, please remember that Hash Value is not secret; anyone cannot obtain the original content (which is encrypted by signature algorithm) by knowing the Hash value.
We will discuss in the upcoming section, how Hash Algorithm is used to ensure the integrity of a Digital certificate.
Now that we are familiar with all the basic terminologies, let’s discuss how a digital certificate works. We will assume a real life scenario, where a company will obtain a SSL certificate for its Web Site example.com, to ensure secure transaction with its clients. We also assume that the Certificate Authority (CA) that they are going to use is VeriSign CA.
Example.com will generate a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) for VeriSign from the example.com Web Server.
The exact steps of generating the CSR will vary from OS to OS, and from application to application. If the Web Server is Windows Server, then CSR can be generated using Certificate Management Console and also from the IIS. For UNIX or LINUX based systems, there are different tools available like Keytool.
While generating the CSR, the Public-Private key pair will be generated. The Private Key will be automatically stored in some secure location within the web server (Keystore), while the public key will be part of the CSR.
1) Common Name (The name of the web site, to which the certificate would be issued).
5) Certificate Validity (Example: 1 Year, 2 years etc.).
There may be additional information which will be part of the CSR, but the one we mentioned here are most common.
The CSR will then be shared with the Certificate Authority, VeriSign in this case. Typically, this is done by logging into VeriSign account and uploading the CSR.
Upon receiving the CSR, VeriSign will validate the organization. This validation can be offline or online.
Generally, big organizations already have a subscription with an external CA (like VeriSign or DigiCert), as they have to purchase certificates frequently for multiple purpose. For those organizations, the Organization name and Domain name are already validated, to avoid the validation process every time they require a certificate. This makes the Certificate issue process quicker. In such cases, requestor himself can login to the CA console, upload the CSR and generate the certificate immediately, provided Certificate Units are already purchased from the CA. No further validation is required in this case.
If the organization name or domain name are not already validated, then it will take some time for the CA to complete all the required validations, as it may require some off line paperwork between the organization and the CA.
• Digest (Hash) of the Certificate, which is encrypted with Public Key of the issuing CA. This is called the Thumbprint.
• Hash Algorithm used (Ex: SHA1, SHA 256 etc.).
One important point to note here is, the digest is encrypted with the Private Key of the CA (VeriSign). This means, if it can be decrypted by the Public Key of the VeriSign (which is available by default in any standard browser) then it is ensured that this certificate is issued by none other than VeriSign.
After that, if the digest value is re calculated with the same Hash algorithm on the digital certificate, and the same digest value is obtained which is attached with the CA, then it is ensued that the contents of the Certificate has not been tampered during transit, otherwise Digest value would not match.
In this way, the authenticity and integrity of the certificate will be verified.
Once the Certificate has been issued, it will be imported to the Web Server, from where we generated the CSR. For Windows Server, The Certificate will be imported using the Certificate Management console, and will be imported to the keystore.
During Import, the handshaking between the public key (embedded with the Certificate) and the private key (stored within the web server) will be done. From Windows, post import there will be a statement within the certificate showing “You have a Private Key corresponding to this certificate” which will ensure that key pairs are synced properly. If the statement will say that “You do not have a Private Key corresponding to this certificate”, that will indicate that the private and public keys are not synced properly, and we have to investigate what went wrong.
After importing the certificate to the web server, the certificate also need to be bind to the web site. This can be done through IIS or Apache console.
Post binding, the “HTTP” option needs to be changed to “HTTPS” for that site, to enabled secure communication.
Now that example.com has incorporated a Digital Certificate from a globally trusted CA (VeriSign), it is ready for a secure communication with its web clients over the Internet.
Step 1: The web client will connect to https://example.com through the Internet (or Intranet).
Step 2: Since this is a SSL connection, the Digital Certificate of example.com web site will be sent to the web client.
Step 3: The web client will check the “Issued By” field and will understand that this certificate has been issued by VeriSign Inc. However, the web client first needs to verify that the certificate has been actually issued by VeriSign. For that, the web client will try to decrypt the encrypted digest (thumbprint) with VeriSign’s public key.
As mentioned before, public keys of well-known CAs are generally present in most of the browsers. This is because well-known CAs are by default “Trusted” by most of the browsers. So probably the web client already trusts VeriSign CA and already having its public key. If not, it has to be imported separately.
If the digest can be decrypted successfully using VeriSign’s public key, that will ensure that it has been encrypted with VeriSign’s private key. Since only VeriSign has access to its private key, this will ensure that this certificate has been issued by none other than VeriSign.
Step 4: The web client will then check the integrity of the Certificate. For that, it will re-calculate the digest value using the same Hash Algorithm (SHA1 or SHA2) which is mentioned in the certificate, and will compare it with the digest value which it has just decrypted (which is attached with the certificate). If both the value matches, then the integrity of the certificate will be ensured.
Step 5: Now that the Certificate authenticity and Integrity is verified, the web client will begin a secure communication with the web server of example.com.
For that, it will generate a Session Key (Symmetric Key) and encrypt the session key with the example.com web server’s public key. Now, this session can be decrypted only using the example.com web server’s private key.
The web client will then send that encrypted message to example.com web server.
Step 6: When the Web Server will receive the encrypted message, it will decrypt the message and will obtain the session key. In this way, the session key would be exchanged securely between web client and web server.
Step 7: The rest of the communication (transaction) between the web server and web client will happen using the session key as the encryption key. The same session key will be used by both sides to encrypt and decrypt the messages. This session key will only be valid in the current session. The moment the session will be terminated, the session key will become invalid and cannot be re used.
In this way, a secure communication will be performed by using a Digital Certificate.
Generally, critical web sites have more than one web server, behind a Load Balancer. Lets assume that our example.com web site is hosted on five Web Servers, and all these web servers are behind a Load Balancer. The Load Balancer could be Microsoft NLB or any other Load Balancer like F5.
1. Generate CSR from any one of the five Web Server, say Web Server 1.
2. Get a Digital Certificate from an external CA based on that CSR.
3. Import that Certificate to Web Server 1 and bind with the web site example.com.
4. From web server 1, export the certificate along with its Private Key. For Windows OS, if we export a certificate along with Private Key , the exported file format would be PFX (Personal Information Exchange) . Please note that this file will contain both Private and Public keys, so this file needs to be handled very carefully.
5. Copy the exported certificate file to other four web servers and import the certificate to each server.
6. In some cases, the Load Balancer also decrypts and encrypts digital certificate, in order to offload web servers of the processing burden of encryption and decryption. This feature is known as SSL Offloading. In such cases, the same certificate also needs to be imported to the Load Balancer and to be binded with the example.com web site. We may need to contact Network team or Security Team who supports the Load Balancer, and work with them to import the Certificate to Load Balancer .
7. Once all the above mentioned steps are done, please do not forget to delete the certificate export file from all the servers, which will be a PFX file in case of Windows. Please note that PFX file contains the Certificate along with the key pairs (Private and Public keys), so if the file goes to a wrong hand , it can be misused and then the communication using that Digital Certificate will no longer be secure.
In the above example, we have discussed how a web site can establish a secure communication with web clients using the Internet.
Since the encrypted communication was happening over the Internet, the web site opted for a Digital certificate which was issued by an External CA, VeriSign in this case. This is because most of the popular External CAs are already "Trusted" by web browsers like Internet Explorer, Firefox or Google Chrome.
When we say the CA VeriSign is "Trusted" by a web browser or an operating system, we mean that the root certificate , or the subordinate certificate of VeriSign Inc is already present in the web client keystore, along with VeriSign public key. The OS manufacturers (like Microsoft ) include these well known CA certificates and their public keys during the OS shipping, so that users do not need to import those certificates manually. As a result, most of the web browsers in the world trust all certificates issued by these well known External CAs, so we can call these CAs as globally trusted.
Internal CAs, on the other hand, are not trusted globally. This is because internal CAs are generally custom built CAs, which is unique for every organisation. Typically, certificates issued by these CAs are trusted within a certain organisational boundary. For example, an Active Directory based CA is by default trusted by all computers, which are part of that AD Forest, where the CA is deployed.
We can now start our discussion on AD CS. Microsoft offers to build a complete Enterprise PKI (Public Key Infrastructure) solution through Active Directory, which is extremely popular among large and medium sized organisations.
There are some advantages and disadvantages of using an Internal PKI solution, we will discuss both.
In an Internal PKI environment, there is no cost associated per certificate. An organization typically uses thousands of certificates for its internal web servers, application servers, mail servers, users and so on. Purchasing units for each of these certificates from external CA and periodically renewing those certificates would be a costly affair. By implementing an enterprise PKI solution, organisation reduces this huge recurring cost.
Organizations can have more granular control over the PKI implementation. For example, they can build customize certificate templates for each purpose and also control which groups of users/ computers can use which template. Such kind of control is not possible for external PKI.
AD CS supports a feature called Autoenrollment. Using this feature, a certificate can be automatically approved by the CA as soon as request is generated. This does not require manual intervention for every certificate issuance. Similarly, the Auto Renewal feature will automatically renew a certificate before it expires. All these features can be incorporated to certificate template, and access can be controlled at granular level.
Since AD CS is integrated with Active Directory, the overall management of the PKI environment would be simpler with more control. For example. we can use Group Policies to control many operations of AD CS. This includes adding a CA in the trusted certificate store, configuration of autoenrollment, controlling certificate templates and so on.
Overall, Internal PKI is a perfect solution to use within organization or within a certain boundary, where the Certificate need not to be globally recognized.
The CA servers within Internal PKI are not globally trusted. For this reason, any certificate issued by an Internal CA would not be trusted globally.
When an organization deploys Enterprise PKI, the responsibility of maintaining that PKI falls under the organization. For that, it requires few skillful CA admins and proper training.
The initial deployment and training cost is higher for Enterprise PKI, However, in order to achieve a long term goal, this investment is worth.
The organization needs to ensure that the CA servers are secured, and their keys are not compromised. They should also have a recovery plan, in case the key of the CA servers would be compromised. For external PKI, all these overheads would be taken care by third parties.
Its time to conclude this discussion. As we mentioned in the introduction section, this is the first article of the AD CS series. In this article, we have taken a deep dive on the basic concepts of Cryptography and Digital Certificate. We have discussed how a secure communication can be performed using Digital Certificate. Finally, we have introduced Enterprise PKI and compared it with External PKI.

Every once in a while, a new home improvement product comes along that puts a smile on your face. The GreenFan fan controller is one of those products.
Arizona summers can be brutal, with temperatures soaring to 118 degrees between the months of June and August. This means air conditioning units are working overtime to keep homes cool. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, a quarter of the energy consumed in Arizona homes is for air conditioning, which is more than four times the national average. This means, homeowners pay more for their utility bills in the hot summer months. Buying a new and more efficient air conditioning unit can dramatically reduce utility bills; however, a new unit installation can cost thousands of dollars—and most homeowners don’t consider this an option unless their unit fails and cannot be repaired.
The GreenFan integrates with all air conditioning systems—to make them work smarter and more efficiently. The manufacturer of this product claims that energy efficiency ratio data of air conditioning systems showed an improvement of between 8% and 35% for short A/C cycles when used with the GreenFan. The testing was independently performed by Intertek laboratories in Texas.
The GreenFan is described as a microcomputer that monitors how long a homeowner’s air conditioning compressor operates and estimates how much additional cool air can be extracted from the system. This cool air is held in the middle of the evaporator coil—it’s held in the duct work and in the moisture that has condensed in the evaporator coil. The GreenFan’s primary function is to run the indoor fan for an amount of time that corresponds to the run time of the compressor. GreenFan limits the maximum amount of time the fan can be extended.
We received a product sample from GreenFan, Inc. and decided to put the device to the test. How did it perform?
The installation was done on a Valley home and performed by experts Quality Systems A/C & Refrigeration of Scottsdale, Ariz.
Overall, there’s a noticeable difference in energy consumption with the GreenFan installed.
With a retail price of $80 and a fairly easy installation, this product does exactly what it advertises—reduces your energy consumption and saves money on your utility bill. Your efficiency rating may vary, obviously—and will depend on your air conditioning unit and operational status.

Americans are somewhat obsessed with physical exercise and fitness. People of all ages exert themselves to extreme measures in pursuit of greater physical health. Folks go to significant measures to “workout.” Ironically, while people shy away from careers which require manual labor, they will invest time, money and energy into a daily or weekly “workout.” Even some churches are advertising a “fitness ministry.” One can observe folks who exercise almost to the point of exhaustion.
Proverbs talks about the simple ones. They are ignorant, unlearned, and naive. But the scorner is one who knows better and fights against the truth he knows. He rejects help from his authorities. Proverbs 9:7-9 says, He that reproveth a scorner getteth to himself shame: and he that rebuketh a wicked man getteth himself a blot. Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee. Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning.
Words: Benjamin Schmolk (1672-1737) was born to a Lutheran pastor in Silesia, Germany, a region now contained in modern Poland. As a young man, he once filled in for his father and preached a sermon so impressive that a local benefactor paid for his university schooling at Leipzig. Upon graduating, Schmolk joined his father as assistant pastor.

Have you had problems with your outboard engine flooding lately? If you’ve recently upgraded or replaced your portable fuel tank this year, chances are that that’s the cause. New EPA regulations control portable fuel tank emissions, and your fuel system may not have the proper equipment necessary to keep your engine from flooding.
As of January 1, 2011, the EPA requires that all new portable marine fuel tanks follow a zero-emissions policy. To meet these new standards and regulations, fuel tanks can no longer be built as an “open” fuel system. Prior to the change, fuel tanks were manufactured with a fuel filler cap that vented and released gas vapor into the atmosphere. Now that portable fuel tanks must be fully sealed, the gas vapor is unable to vent and has nowhere to escape except to your engine through the fuel line. This builds up pressure within the fuel tank, and puts your engine at risk of flooding.
If you purchased a portable marine fuel tank that was built in 2011, it is likely a closed system and was manufactured to follow these regulations. However, the EPA is allowing all manufacturers and retailers to sell their remaining inventories of open portable fuel tanks. This means that even though you may have bought a portable fuel tank in 2011, it doesn’t necessarily follow the new EPA regulations.
If your portable fuel tank expands and contracts noticeably with changes in temperature, it is likely that you have a closed fuel system, and the pressure within the system may result in flooding your engine. Opening and closing the fuel tank filler cap releases pressure when refueling, but if you don’t refuel regularly, there is more risk of pressure building up in your tank and flooding the engine. It’s always a good practice to relieve pressure from your fuel tank prior to attaching it to your engine. That helps reduce the chance of any fuel spraying or dripping from the connector as you attach it to the engine.
Fortunately, we have developed a product to help protect engines from fuel being forced in to the system causing flooding. New from Attwood is our Fuel Demand Valve (FDV). The FDV installs onto the fuel hose between the fuel tank and primer bulb, and prevents fuel from flowing unless there is demand from the engine. This eliminates excess fuel that would otherwise be forced through the fuel line due to pressure in the tank, and avoids the related flooding and engine failure.
The EPA-certified Attwood Fuel Demand Valve is compatible with all new fuel tanks, no matter the brand. The FDVs are available both individually and as part of Attwood’s fuel line assembly, which includes EPA-compliant hose, primer bulb, and the new Universal Sprayless Connector.
With proper usage of the new closed fuel tanks, not only are you helping your boat run smoothly and helping the environment, you are keeping the fuel where it belongs: in the tank. No one wants to deal with the headache or money loss of a flooded engine!
By understanding how the new EPA regulations affect your fuel tank’s performance, you can take the necessary steps to keep your engine working properly.For more information on the new EPA regulations, the potential effects of compliance, and the products that keep you safe and your engine performing, visit the Portable Fuel & EPA Resources section of our website. Help the environment and help keep your fuel where you want it… in your tank!

The Tenth Doctor (David Tennant) is back in the TARDIS for more of his comic adventures in a new Titan adventure. Written by James Peaty with the artist Warren Pleece.
In the previous issue, Cindy had been captured and whisked away to a new destination in the Time Vortex. The Doctor and Gabby must rescue Cindy from the Red Jade Doctor, and free thousands of Cindy’s clones. The series featured spectacular art throughout. In this issue, Revolving Doors, the Doctor takes Cindy back home to recuperate from her misadventures in China and the loss of her true love to the Nocturnes. He and Gabby decide to take a quick, flying visit somewhere fun. Gabby notes that she now hears the TARDIS’ mood in her signature sound. What mood will the TARDIS be in for this trip?
The Doctor explains that the TARDIS had used its Randomizer to send them off. When Gabby exits the TARDIS, she exults when she see the London Underground sign. The Doctor has the opposite reaction: he wants to leave immediately. “Us. Leave. Now” he demands. When Gabby protests, “Doctor?! This isn’t like you”, the Doctor turns to her with a biting reply. “How would you know, Gabby? What do you really know about me?” Gabby is stunned, and then hears a nearby scream. She does know the Doctor well enough to know that the Doctor has to help when he hears trouble.
Aldous Huxley’s famous essay, The Doors of Perception, makes its first comic book appearance in a London stockroom. The screams came from an employee who claims to have seen a monster – so the Doctor decides to stay for five minutes. “When is a stockroom not a stockroom?” the Doctor asks rhetorically. “When it’s a doorway to another dimension.” A squid-like monster awaits them, and it’s being controlled by a mysterious figure who speaks in an eerily black and red speech bubble. The figure is (or was) a tech entrepreneur named Aaron Crossland, whose logo is a large key. Perhaps it represents the way to unlock the doors to separate dimensions.
Crossland has been taken over by an alien force that feeds off of sorrow, so the Doctor is divided from Gabby and meets a former companion – you’ll never guess who – but the Doctor resists being the contractor who will smash the walls between the worlds.
The artwork from Warren Pleece is often excellent, but the drawing of the Tenth Doctor himself is not always spot on. Both the Doctor and Gabby don’t look the way they have in previous issues. But the depiction of Crossland is exciting, and the lettering throughout is fantastic.
The story itself is wonderfully melancholy. Does Gabby really know the Doctor? Can any human truly understand the mind of an alien? Even though the two have battled enemies over the universe and travelled as close companions, Gabby doesn’t understand the Doctor at all – and in the end, Gabby is filled with butterflies in her stomach.
TENTH DOCTOR YEAR THREE #5 is now available in both digital and print forms.

Jenny is returning and will be offering Day Retreats exclusively with us in Niagara. She is quite simply magical!
R E C E P T I V I T Y ::: We compromise our femininity when we attempt to match the masculine. We malnourish ourselves. To get things done, to compete, to push, to achieve. But we are women not men. And there is a different way.
When we return back to the true nature of ourselves we become open. Feminine strength is slow and sensual. That essence lives inside every woman ... hidden underneath the hard edges that we create in an attempt to be in this world. This is our real source of strength and wisdom. I know when I am tired and overwhelmed I have lost touch with this part of myself. But we can train our nervous system to remain open and soft. We can relearn to embody the feminine. It’s an important conversation.

Olivia Flaversham: You know, Daddy, this is my very best birthday!
Hiram Flaversham: Ah, but I haven't given you your present yet.
Dr. Dawson: How the deuce did you know I was a doctor?
Basil: A surgeon to be exact. Just returned from military duty in Afghanistan. Am I right?
Dr. Dawson: Why, ha, ha, yes. Major David Q. Dawson. But how could you possibly...?
Basil: Quite simple, really. You've sewn your torn cuff together with a Lambert stitch, which, of course, only a surgeon uses. And the thread is a unique form of cat-gut, easily distinguished by its peculiar pungency, found only in the Afghan provinces.
Basil: Actually, it's elementary, my dear Dawson.
Fidget: I'm going! I'm going! I'm going!
Ratigan: Thank you, thank you. But it hasn't all been champagne and caviar. I've had my share of adversity, thanks to that miserable, second-rate detective, Basil of Baker Street!
Ratigan: For years, that insufferable pipsqueak has interfered with my plans, and I haven't had a moment's peace of mind.
Ratigan: But all that's in the past! This time, nothing, not even Basil, can stand in my way! All will bow before me!
Basil: [enraged] Ratigan, so help me, I'll see you behind bars yet!
Ratigan: [face gets close to Basil's] You fool!
Ratigan: Isn't it clear to you the superior mind has triumphed? I've won!
Ratigan: Sorry, chubby. You should have chosen your friends more carefully.
Ratigan: [points at mousetrap] Slap!
Ratigan: [points at gun] Boom!
Ratigan: [points at crossbow] Twang!
Ratigan: [points at axe] Dunk!
Ratigan: [points at anvil] SPLAT!
Ratigan: And so ends the short, undistinguished career of Basil of Baker Street.
Ratigan: Oh, my dear Bartholomew. I'm afraid that you've gone and upset me. You know what happens when someone upsets me.
Ratigan: [reading a list of newly devised laws] Item 96: A heavy tax shall be levied against all parasites and spongers, such as the elderly, the infirm, and especially little children.
Fidget: [gesturing at Olivia] We have to lighten the load.
Ratigan: Oh, you want to lighten the load? Excellent idea.
Fidget: No! Not me! Wait, I can't fly! I can't fly!
Dr. Dawson: Dash it all, Basil! The Queen's in danger, Olivia's counting on us, we're about to be horribly "splatted" and all you can do is lie there feeling sorry for yourself. Well, I know you can save us, but if you've given up then why don't we just set it off now and be done with it?
Basil: [feebly] He he. "Set it off now." Set if off... now?
Basil: Ha ha! Yes! We'll set the trap off now!
Basil: [pointing to a pinhole in a glass on the toy shop window] Aha! Here is our friend's entrance.
Dr. Dawson: Bu-But, Basil, how could he fit in through such a tiny...?
Dr. Dawson: Basil, you astound me!
Basil: Aha, Dawson! We've found it at last. Ratigan's secret lair. And it's filthier than I imagined.
Ratigan: Bravo! Bravo! A marvelous performance! Although I was expecting you fifteen minutes earlier. Trouble with the chemistry set, old boy?
Basil: ...by a bat who has been drinking Rodent's Delight, a cheap brandy served only in the seediest pubs.
Basil: Oh, not really, doctor. We still don't know where it came from. Perhaps a closer inspection will tell us something.
Basil: Coal dust, clearly of the type used in sewer lamps.
Basil: Come on, come on. Good, bad, bad, good. Come on, come on, come on.
Basil: Aha! We've done it, old fellow! This chemical reaction could only be triggered by the paper's extreme saturation with distillation of sodium chloride.
Dr. Dawson: Salt water? Great Scott.
Basil: It proves beyond a shadow of a doubt, this note came from the riverfront area.
Basil: ...where the sewer connects with the riverfront.
Dr. Dawson: Well, it's time I was on my way too.
Dr. Dawson: Well, the case is over, and perhaps... well perhaps it's best I found my own living quarters.
Basil: Oh, now who could that be?
Dr. Dawson: Indeed it is, miss. You look as if you're in some kind of trouble.
Basil: Ah, allow me to introduce my trusted associate Dr. Dawson, with whom I do all of my cases. Isn't that right, doctor?
Ratigan: Oh, Felicia, my precious, my baby. Did daddy's little honey-bunny enjoy her tasty treat?
Bar Maid: What'll you have?
Basil: Two pints for me and my shipmate. Oh, by the way. We just got into port. We're looking for an old friend of mine. Maybe you know him. Goes by the name... of Ratigan!
Bar Maid: I... never heard of him.
Sherlock Holmes: I observe that there is a good deal of German music on the program. It is quite introspective, and I want to introspect.
Dr. Watson: But, Holmes, that music is so frightfully dull.
Ratigan: My friends, we are about to embark on the most odious, the most evil, the most diabolical scheme of my illustrious career. A crime to top all crimes, a crime that will live in infamy!
Ratigan: ...it promises to be a night she'll never forget.
Ratigan: Her last night, and my first as supreme ruler of all mousedom!
Dr. Dawson: Oh, my! Upon my word. I've never seen so many toys.
Basil: Behind any of which could lurk a blood-thirsty assassin! So, please, Doctor, be very careful.
Dr. Dawson: What-what-what did he mean an engagement at Buckingham Palace?
Basil: Haven't you figured it out yet, Doctor? The Queen's in danger and the empire is doomed.
Dr. Dawson: [Alarmed] The Queen?
Ratigan: [on the hour hand of Big Ben, after throwing basil off] I've won!
Basil: [handing from the severed blimp's propeller] On the contrary! the game's not over yet!
Ratigan: [standing atop Big Ben] I've won! Ha ha ha!
Basil: On the contrary! The game's not over yet!
Bartholomew: To Ratigan, the world's greatest rat! Hic!
Ratigan: What did you call me?
Henchmen: Oh, he didn't mean it, Professor!
Henchman #2: It... it was just a slip of the tongue.
Ratigan: I am not a rat!
Henceman #3: Course you're not.
Thug Guard: You're a mouse.
Henchman #2: Yeah, a-a big mouse.
Dr. Dawson: [voice over] From that time on, Basil and I were a close team. We had many cases together, but I'll always look back on that first with the most fondness; my introduction to Basil of Baker Street, the great mouse detective.
Ratigan: This is my kingdom!
Ratigan: That is, of course, with your highness' permission.
Robot Queen: Most assuredly... you insidious fiend.
Robot Queen: You're not my royal consort!
Robot Queen: You're a cheap fraud & impostor!
Basil: [operating the robot] A corrupt, vicious, demented, lowlife scoundrel. There's no evil scheme you wouldn't concoct.
Basil: Remember, Dawson, we're low-life ruffians.
Dr. Dawson: [Voice over] It was the eve of our beloved Queen's Diamond Jubilee, and the year Her Majesty's government came to the very brink of disaster. She... But I'm getting ahead of myself. My name is Doctor David Q. Dawson, most recently of the Queen's 66th regiment. I had just returned to London after a lenghty service in Afghanistan, and was looking for a place to stay, preferably dry. Little did I know that my life was about to change forever.
Olivia Flaversham: Now will you please listen to me? My daddy's gone, and I'm all alone.
Basil: Young lady, this is a most inopportune time.
Basil: Surely your mother knows where he is.
Olivia Flaversham: I... I don't have a mother.
Basil: [Stops playing with a screech] Well, um... then perhaps... See here! I simply have no time for lost fathers.
Olivia Flaversham: I didn't lose him. He was taken by a bat.
Basil: Did you say... bat?
Olivia Flaversham: I don't know, but he had a peg leg.
Basil: He's a genius, Dawson. A genius twisted for evil. The Napoleon of crime!
Basil: Worse! For years I've tried to capture him, and I've come close, so very close, but each time he's narrowly evaded my grasp! Not a corner of London is safe while Ratigan is at large. There's no evil scheme he wouldn't concoct. No depravity he wouldn't commit. Who knows what dastardly scheme that villain may be plotting even as we speak.
Fidget: [after Olivia stomps on his toes] Ow! My foot! My only foot!
Basil: Don't worry, old fellow. It's not entirely hopeless.
Ratigan: Oh, I love it when I'm nasty. Fidget?
Ratigan: Bright and alert as always. Here's the list. You know what to do and no mistakes!
Fidget: I'm going, I'm going, I'm going!
Basil: [concerning Professor Ratigan] There's no evil scheme he wouldn't concoct! No depravity he wouldn't commit.
Ratigan: Fidget, you delightful little maniac! You've provided me with a singular opportunity. Poor Basil. Oh, he's in for a little surprise.
Ratigan: Ah, the uniforms! Oh, Fidget, I knew I could rely on you. Now, you didn't forget anything?
Fidget: The list, yeah, yeah yeah. Well, you see it was like this. I was in the toy store getting uniforms when I heard a "aroo aroo".
Ratigan: [irritated] You're not coming through.
Fidget: A dog came! I ran! I had baby bonnet, girl in bag, and Basil ch-chased me.
Ratigan: What? Basil on the case? Why, you gibbering, little... hm... hm... HMMMMM!
Ratigan: [chuckles] Oh, my dear Fidget. You have been hanging upside down too long.
Fidget: You mean you're not mad? I'm glad you're taking it so well.
Fidget: [as he's being eaten] Aaaah! Not me, you idiot! No, stop, you stupid fur ball! Open up! Open up! You're hurting my wings!
Ratigan: [rubbing his forehead] How dare that idiot Basil poke his stupid nose into my wonderful scheme and foul up everything?
Basil: Dawson, these drinks have been... drugged!
Basil: Ratigan, no one can have a higher opinion of you than I have, and I think you're a slimy, contemptible sewer rat!
Ratigan: Now, you will remember to smile for the camera, won't you? Say "Cheese".
Fidget: Here you are, sweetheart.
The Mouse Queen: Have you... been with us... long?
Dr. Dawson: Scoundrel's quite gone.
Basil: But not for long, Miss Flamhammer!
Olivia Flaversham, Dr. Dawson: Flaversham!
Olivia Flaversham: Goodbye, Basil. [sniffles] Olivia Flaversham: I... I'll never forget you. Basil: Nor I you, Miss... Miss Flangerhanger. Dr. Dawson: [chuckles] Whatever.
Basil: There's always a chance, Doctor, as long as one can think.

Text records can be admitted into court records – so be careful what you type!
Here it is folks, the final installment in this five part series on Divorce Tech. If you happen to have missed any of our earlier installments, we recommend you spend a few minutes getting caught up. Otherwise, let’s pick up where we left off….
In this series we’ve been looking at the particular tech-related issues that you’d need to address, after deciding to get divorced. Having already talked about issues like surveillance sweeps, joint accounts, family phone plans and password protection, we’re going to look at the last two items on our list.
Family computers are still relatively common. Be it a laptop that has lived on the dining room table for years now, or simply a home office that gets used by everyone in the house for one thing or another, chances are there’s sensitive information on it. And your spouse can access it too.
Chrome: Go to History, then select Show Full History. Check the boxes to clear form data as well as cookies, cache, download, and browsing history. But don’t check the box to clear “Passwords”, as that will leave your partner without access. Go into Settings (on a Mac this is called Preferences), and scroll to Passwords and Forms. Then select Manage Passwords to delete logins for your accounts only.
Internet Explorer: In Windows, go to the Control Panel, then select Network and Internet, and from there select Internet Options. Now choose Delete browsing history, and check every box on the list except Passwords. Go back to the Control Panel, and select User Accounts. Now select Credential Manager, and then Web Credentials. Now you can delete your accounts.
Firefox: Go to Options (on a Mac this is called Preferences), then select Security, and choose Saved Passwords. Select your logins, and then go to History and select Clear Recent History. Choose “Everything”, and then check every box for browsing and download history.
Divorcing couples tend to say a lot of things to each other that aren’t very kind. This makes sense – after all, their marriage is falling apart and they’re processing loss, anger, resentment, and heartbreak. But you need to consider a few things the next time you and your spouse get caught up in a heated debate.
Conversations that you have on the phone are not entered into the court’s records. However texts can be! So you need to decide what method is the best for the dialogues that you and your soon-to-be ex are having. Are they saying things to you in private that they then claim were never said in public? If so, then maybe text is the best possible method of communication. Because once they’ve sent it to you, it’s a documented piece of evidence that can be submitted into the permanent record.
However, if you’re struggling to keep your cool when you talk to your ex, or having a hard time not saying something you’ll regret later on? Well, perhaps good old telephone conversation is the way to go. Remember, if it’s written down somewhere, chances are that the Judge is going to look at it too!
Do you need help from a skilled Michigan divorce attorney?
We hope this info helps you in approaching your tech-related issues in the wake of a divorce decision. Hopefully you’re able to get your life in order and get back on track quickly, and with a minimum of fuss. Either way, whatever your situation, we’re here to help. At The Kronzek Firm we’ve handed thousands of divorces all over mid-Michigan. We know how complicated this situation is, and how to help you achieve the best possible outcome in your divorce. So call 866 766 5245 today, and get help from a skilled Michigan divorce lawyer.
So You’re Officially Divorced. Now What…?
I recently finalized my divorce and Stephanie Service was my Attorney. She was AMAZING, and WORTH EVERY PENNY! She helped me work through the legalities of a complex divorce with an unstable ex. In the end I walked away feeling GREAT! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND her to anyone looking for a "QUALITY" Divorce Attorney!!

This handcrafted Hard Maple Wood End Grain Cutting Board is made from select end grain Hard Maple wood. End grain cutting boards are not only beautiful, they are often the best surface for cutting on because they tend to dull knives much slower than other surfaces. The fibers in the wood allow the knife to pass through much more gently and helps maintain the edge much longer. By combining different colors and wood structures, each board has a unique and unrepeatable pattern. An end grain cutting board from Quality Cutting Board Company will look great on your countertop.

Ephwurd Bring the Party With Remix of Griz & Big Gigantic's "Good Times Roll"
Datsik and Bais Haus, otherwise known as the aces of bass Ephwurd, have done it again.
The power duo have given their signature “bass house” touch to Big Gigantic & Griz‘s hit collaboration “Good Times Roll,” resulting in nothing other than a dance floor smashing, head banging remix.
Big Gigantic and Griz‘s jazzy, groovy original receives a driving bassline and some wobbling synths that turn those good-times vibes into a party-all-night track. The remix comes right after Ephwurd‘s outstanding performance on the main stage (Kinetic Field) of EDC Las Vegas and just in time for the syndication of their Eph’d Up Radio on iHeartRadio/Evolution.
The show will air the second and fourth Friday of every month at midnight EST, starting June the 30th, and listeners can expect thumping new tunes from the likes of Hi-Lo & Chocolate Puma, Diplo & Autoerotique, and of course some from Ephwurd themselves.
A mysterious duo by the name of Epwhurd catapulted onto the scene in the summer of 2015 with their mind-bending remix of Major Lazer‘s “Lean On“, alongside ETC!ETC! The industry didn’t have to wait long before it was revealed that none other than Datsik and his long-time cohort Bais Haus were behind that bass-heavy production style.

text: September is National Prostate Health Month and millions of men get the diagnosis every year. One in 7 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer. Dr. Adam Hollander, with Memorial Hermann Medical Group Greater Heights, said that because of those high numbers he could probably diagnose a new patient every day. "I would certainly encourage anyone in the target age group, sort of 50s to 70s, to talk to their doctor about prostate cancer screening," Hollander said.

Hubby and I popped the Champagne out when New Year rang. Hours before the new year we watched Toy Story movie and took couple of family picture.
Went to the park, play in the swing and slide and watched hockey. There were kids playing hockey in the ice skating rink so Jake and I went there to watch. Then, we went to Subway to spend the $15 worth GC.
It was my birthday but it was the loneliest, boring, depressing day of the year. We did nothing but sit and do nothing. Thanks to my friend who remembered my birthday and sent me some gifts as well as post birthday greeting in their blog. We also got the rest of the cards on the mail that day and one of them had gift card from my friend in Indiana.
We are still in the Week 1 of new year 2011. Project 365 hosted by Sara still on. I have a different project 365 in my other blog but this one i will take picture a day for a year and on Sunday link up to the host's blog to show the week's pictures. This is a better way to document our family's activity and every day life.
Aside from participating the project 356 I still continue to participate the regular meme from last year.
I've always wanted to skate in an outdoor skating rink. I've never even seen one in person!

Looks like a great week! I love celebrating simply like that!
Welcome to P365! Oh seeing that train set. We have all of that and I don't think I will ever be able to part with it!
You have a beautiful family! I hope this year's birthday isn't so lonely.
Burrr! Playing at the playground in the snow looked cold, but the smile on your little one's face says it didn't matter. So cute.

On behalf of Maples, Nix & Diesselhorst posted in Motorcycle Accidents on Tuesday, July 1, 2014.
For some Oklahoma residents, motorcycles are a convenient and sometimes preferred way to travel, especially when the weather is nice. Motorcycles offer an alternative to rising gas costs and make for easier travel in congested areas. However, riding a motorcycle is considerably more dangerous than traveling in other motor vehicles, unfortunately often as a result of other's negligence. In the event of collision with another vehicle, a motorcyclist is at higher risk of being severely injured or killed. Although highly advised, helmets and other protective gear offer only limited protection in the event of a crash.
Recently, a 30-year-old Foster man was killed when his bike collided with a pickup truck on a Stephens County road. According to the Oklahoma Highway Patrol, the biker was on his 1994 Suzuki motorcycle heading south on the rural county road around 6:20 a.m. when he hit the side of the pickup. The truck's driver apparently attempted to turn left into a private driveway, perhaps without yielding to the motorcyclist. The rider suffered severe injuries and massive head trauma. He was not wearing a helmet and was pronounced dead at the scene. According to OHP officers, an investigation into the crash is ongoing.
Riders who have survived motorcycle wrecks with only minor injuries can consider themselves lucky. For those who have suffered more severe injuries, recovery can take some time. In this case, the family of the man killed may have to wait until the OHP investigation is finished before they can take further action. They can also conduct their own investigation to gather evidence that could be used in a civil lawsuit.
Motorcycle accident victims can file a personal injury lawsuit or surviving family members can file a wrongful death lawsuit against an individual they believe caused their losses. A suit, however, must show that the other party's negligence caused the crash, resulting in compensable harm. A legal adviser can help victims do everything possible to establish these elements and fight see the maximum compensation is recovered.

Hump Day Hilarity – Al Gore's AIT Firesale | Watts Up With That?
Al Gore’s book, An Inconvenient Truth used to be one of the hottest items (no pun intended…umm, well maybe) but now, not so much. While it is still being sold on Amazon.com for as much as ten dollars, it seems there is now a burgeoning discount market for AIT.
And, it gets worse, some Amazon used book sellers are unloading it for a penny!
October 8, 2014 in Al Gore, Humor.
It would probably hold its price better if they moved it to the comedy section.
…or at least the Junk Science pile.
I’d like to agree. But it’s no laughing matter that many people believed in this science fiction novel enough to riot in the streets, vote for carbon taxes, lie to other that PV solar and windmills are job creators, and so on. This book has been a destructive force for most, and helped make a few very wealthy off the anguish of others.
Can I use carbon credits instead of cash?
Maybe if you promise to sequester this carbon and not burn it.
If it ends up in my septic tank, does that count as sequestration?
You are aware, I preume, that that is a spoof site?
This is an amusing website which, at first, appears to be a ‘green’ site but is actually just an advert for a book called ‘Biodiesel’. Go to the bottom of the homepage and read the extremely small print.
Gore’s “An Inconvenient Truth” #196,056.
Amazon Unlimited is the “borrow” thing they’ve set up, right? Glad to hear of it. Mostly just want to keep law-abiding people from ending up in jail because they were unfortunate enough to be chosen as prey and fortunate enough to have won the contest.
lot of good info on this site if you have not visited often.
At those prices I’m tempted to buy a copy – with the rising price of heating fuel, thanks to the brutal cold weather which seems to be occurring lately, it could come in useful.
Heck, I’m wondering if you can buy in bulk.
Even with 5 bucks shipping?
Wayne, you beat me to it. Up here in the great white north, 1 penny per copy could keep the cabin warm very cost effectively. I wonder how much CO2 would be generated per copy?
Good point! At that rate, it’d be cheaper than a cord of wood, AND it would double in a pinch as toilet paper…!
Don’t use it as TP! You’ll get a terrible burning sensation that’ll ruin your day.
Unfortunately, you’re right for once. The important thing about propaganda is not its accuracy or price; it’s how many people’s minds are corrupted by it beyond repair at any price.
Tagged as humour, I dont think so. If a warmist site made a humerous jab at skeptic book sales figures then that would be ok too. Its when people like Cook or Lewendowsky start analysing book sales and reading into it people’s beliefs in global warming it becomes a game and goes too far.
Who’s got more at risk ?
The fact is that a book that’s about ten years old is still well enough known that humour can be made from it.
So it has been influential.
(And everyone who would ant a copy probably already has one).
Inevitable? Check for “The Origin of Species” on Amazon. It was originally published in 1859, and is still going strong and well worth reading.
Perhaps. But most (all?) scientific disciplines have a number of works that never really grow obsolete or redundant. Just check the books any working scientist keeps handy.
I’m STILL waiting for your answer to my question regarding the HotWhoppers debate, Peter, which was whether you agreed with her position or not.
Obviously, you just cherry pick topics and aren’t man enough to answer a simple Yes/No question.
You are just a self-serving shill when it comes to the scientific debate, sir.
And I’m STILL waiting for an answer.
Save, a tree. Burn an Inconvenient Truth.
Only if it doesn’t work as toilet paper..
Koch Bros, The target of the green movement sells Angel Soft TP by Georgia Pacific. Retail over one dollar. Koch has a better handle on consumer demand.
Fiction usually has some basis in truth, fantasy would be more appropriate.
Tom wins today’s groaner award for the driest humour with “Climatyville Horror”.
Made me groan out loud.
I wouldn’t pay the lint in my belly button for that POS.
I didn’t read the book, but I actually watched the whole film recently. I was hoping this article would list his predictions 1 by 1 and see what has really happened since the book was published. I guess I would have to buy the book for $1 and list the predictions I mentioned. I’m sure the book must make predictions/forecasts.
Does it, I haven’t read it?
Over representing facts (knowingly lying) to get people to listen (buy your book, watch your movie) is only necessary when you know the real facts won’t make any one care, and they won’t buy your book, and they won’t watch your movie.
At that price it might be an economically viable replacement for Lewpaper.
For a much more useful book at the almost-as-low price of $5, download a PDF copy of Bob Tisdale’s Who Turned Up the Heat?. The background on the ENSO process is critical to understanding his many excellent posts here.
Since WTUtH? is an E-book, you can’t burn it to keep warm; use AIT for that purpose, although good old fashioned coal will give you a lot more heat for the same price, and has the added benefit of making Bill McKibben weep.
Thanks, Alan Watt, Climate Denialist Level 7.
They should sell it next to the Charmin!
AIT weight per book (including jacket) approximately 1 pound 11oz.
5000 of them at a cost of $50.00.
Run them in an incinerator.
where a cord averages about 2800 pounds per cord.
burning AIT books at 1/3 the cost of coal.
There you go again with those equation thingees.
And how does the resulting CO2 emission compare? I imagine that AIT emits much less CO2 as well, coming from Mr Gore after all (because of the low-carbon footprint example that he continues to set for us to follow).
do I really need the sarc tag?
I found this reference which claims 6,500 BTU / lb of “waste paper” (a description I’m sure we can agree on), which is actually slightly lower than 7,500 BTU / lb for “dung” (another apt description). If I use the 6,500 BTU/lb value and your estimate of 1.69 lb for each book I get 54.8 million BTU rather than your 60 million for 5,000 copies, but close enough.
So if you can get enough copies of AIT for the cash and carry price of $0.03 each or less, you will beat or break even with the cost of coal for heating. You will also be transporting roughly 8,430 lbs of AIT to your incinerator rather than 6,000 lbs of coal.
If you assume the hauling capacity of a typical pickup truck (Dodge Ram 1500) is about 1,400 lbs, you will make 5 trips to transport the 3 short tons of coal and 6 trips for the 5,000 copies of AIT.
Or you could burn 8,000 lbs of “dung” instead, which means you won’t have to shovel as much s**t to stay warm.
get yours before they it becomes scarce and rare.
Archaeologists in some future millennia would get a laugh.. or feel sick.
It could be used as a dart board in paperback form – apologies to dart boards everywhere..
31 sources for < $3.50 delivered!
Now if it was printed on softer 3-ply tissue I may have an excellent use for it !!!!
Hmm. That’s costing somebody some money somewhere.
Somehow, I doubt that Al’s contract with his publisher contained a clause putting him on the hook for unsold units.
We need a study to determine if burning “An Inconvenient Truth” is more cost effective than wood pellets.
These prices have got to be less than cost – less even than the royalty Al Gore receives for each copy sold. Booksellers just should not be selling at these prices. It ought to be more profitable for them to shred the books than sell them at this price. So why are they on sale at all? Somebody must be subsidising the sale of this book. Whoever that somebody is, I really hope no public money is involved.
It may be that publishers are clearing the deck for a revised edition.
Sometime back over 20 years ago the tax laws were changed regarding how publishers could treat the production costs of a book. Previously they could claim all the production costs as an expense in the year they were paid. After the change publishers had to ammortize the costs of the run over the sales life of the entire production run. As a result, publishers do not keep unsold books, but dump them at any price once it is clear they are no longer selling.
My wife encountered this when working for a major university library. It used to be when a circulation book became too damaged to use they simply called the publisher and ordered a new copy. After the tax change they had to start calling used bookstores and other resellers.
An electrical utility plant running on unsold copies of this book would be unsustainable.
Even if it was subsidized with our taxes.
Think about the carbon sequestration requirements.
and the best use for it.
I’m a retired book publisher, and there’s no mystery here: When you see a book selling for $5 or less, what you’re most likely seeing are remaindered copies. When a book reaches what the publisher considers “end of life,” remaining inventory is written off and sold for almost nothing to remainder dealers, many of whom are now online. (They used to be tent sellers at flea markets, strip mall used bookstores, and so on.) “Penny sellers” are basically giving the book away and padding the shipping cost a little, which is how they make their money. Remaindered books are marked as such with a black felt marker swipe across the page edge. After remaining inventory is gone, a book is typically declared “out of print.” It could be heading to another edition, typically from hardback to paperback. Most of the time, the book is just dead, and rights revert to the author, who is not paid for whatever money is received from remainder houses.
Obviously been deemed an ‘Inconvenient Book’ which is clogging up valuable floorspace.
Actually, this is very serious stuff. The price is the real revision to the book indicated in the blue masthead wherein it says, ‘Adapted for a NEW GENERATION.’ That adaptation is for the new generation of jobless, penniless, student loan debt ridden, recent college graduates.
Works for me. Is there a quantity discount ? Christmas is coming soon.
Al Gore is the solution to warming. Has anyone received any grant money to study the Gore effect? This guy’s life’s work should be to fly into localized hot spots, deliver a speech thereby bringing the temp down to slightly below normal.
That wasn’t a pun, d@mmit.
At a penny it might be worthwhile as kindling.
For a penny, it’s worth buying if only to punch a hole through one corner and hang it up in the privy on a length of string.
I don’t want it even if it is free.
Pelletize the remaining inventory and sell it to Britain for fuel. No point in cutting trees twice for the same stupidity. Surprised Al hasn’t thought of that already.
Might make decent boiler fuel at $0.01 each. A way to recycle the carbon….lol.
Still, its lies and propaganda are now being disseminated on the cheap!
$0.01 is a lot to pay for a load of codswallop.
back when USPS had media mail rates, you could mail that book for 2.25. amazon would get their cut, which at one penny is nothing. amazon would give you the $3.99 shipping. so, with media mail and a decent cut for amazon, you could make 1.75 selling a book for a penny. if you got a trunkload of books for a quarter each, you can make money if you are efficient.
sadly, USPS has modified the ol’ ‘media mail’ class. probably too many ppl were mis-using it. but you can still make money selling a book for a penny.
Ah, yes. “On the Origin of Species: The Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life”.
Now, let’s get on with the sterilization of those undesirables! Three generations of imbeciles is enough!
People who stretch words into meanings that Darwin never intended do him an injustice. Favoured in this sense does not mean favored by human society or human individuals, but by natural selection. The word race in this context does not mean racial distinctions within homo sapiens, but means species of organisms. Don’t blame Darwin’s correct observations of nature and reality for the bigotry of human beings.
Acceptable to a point; have you read “The Descent of Man?” Get 100 pages into it and you’re ready to rip the thing up.
Darwin’s nephew, at the least thought his uncle was all for eugenics. Here is a excerpt that is chilling in its name dropping significance.
And eugenics was the sciencey fad embraced by the educated self-declared elites and government officials of the day. Sort of like a certain other sciencey fad that one gets in trouble for resisting.
Don’t get upset with me. Get upset with his excitable cousin, Galton.
For hundreds of years, at least since the beginning of the Poor Laws, the educated elite in Britain had been trying to understand why some people don’t pull their own weight in society.
Micky, if you or anyone else goes and reads about the initiation and subsequent history of the Poor Laws, poor houses, and alms houses in Britain, you will see the class issues very clearly.
Darwin simply gave Galton, Haeckel, and other elitist intellectuals a convincing mechanistic theory of the way that some “races” came to be superior or inferior to others.
This is not stretching words, but illuminating truth. We carry these ideas to the present day. Involuntary sterilization of inferiors was normal up through the 1970s. Well, at least here in the United States. I don’t know what country you are in, Micky.
Anyone can ignore this info or begin reading. I myself simply do not trust educated elitist totalitarians very much anymore. I have seen enough.
I’m opposed to book burning on general principles, but given the continued downward slide in the price, and the remarkable lack of warmth these past few winters, this is looking like a cost-effective alternative to firewood.
It’s not at all uncommon for books, CDs, and DVDs that sold large numbers of copies to be sold on Amazon for one cent. I’ve bought many of them. The sellers make their money on the difference between the amount charged for postage ($3.99) and what it cost to actually mail most of these items.
The reviews of the book (28 very positive, 22 very negative) and its Amazon Best Sellers rank of #115,777 are more revealing.
EDIT: It’s not at all uncommon for used copies of books, CDs, and DVDs that sold large numbers of copies to be sold on Amazon for one cent.
$10.12 with free 2 day shipping (prime membership) is cheapest I found (with shipping added in) on Amazon.
found a paperback for 8.78 with the 2 day shipping (prime) there.
Still not going to buy it.
I avoid this tripe like I avoid Ebola.
While I know the derision of Al’s book is justified, it is a fact this book and the movie influenced a lot of people and is worthy of note. I have reluctantly put it in my library where it joined my first edition of Nansen’s Furthest North, in two volumes, and my 6th edition of Darwin’s Origin. I am not saying it is on the same level but if you are rummaging through the scraps of history trying to figure out why the hell people did what they did, something like Al’s opus might be useful.
I am certain when the global warming tide starts to go out, the story will sink quickly into the sand. The book will become inconvenient evidence of how really stupid we can collectively become.
I thought we fowned on book buurning here. This one is suitable to repair a wobbly table. yes. But Burn it NO.
I thought we frowned on book burning here.
@RobRoy, hence the term Thought Experiment. And in reality, getting enough for a warm fire would be hard. It is just fun to fantasize.
I buy excellent books on Abe and Amazon for $1 as often as possible.
I would not take money to have to wade through Goreon’s book again.
But the other commenters who point out that liquidating old books at $1 and less are on track: It is no big deal either way.
got a few (3 iirc) newer brad thor books for 14$ total and prime 2 day shipping on amazon.
there are really good deals there, people forget amazon started as book sales.
I might go ahead and buy a copy and use the pages for target practice at the gun club. I will then take the torn up pages home and free the trapped CO by burning them in my wood stove.
Keep in mind there may well be a tax incentive to get rid of old stock. Some fiefdoms with inventory tax started valuing unsold books at selling price rather than production cost or “remainder” selling price. So publishers were motivated to dump stock – unfortunate because some books will continue to sell but slowly.
There’s also the cost of warehousing space.
(Amusing side note to the bureaucracy called the publishing industry.
There’s a store in Canada selling remainders of books not well distributed in Canada. Appear to be a dealer for a US operation. Typical price in their window was several dollars per book.
That’s on top of the bookstore retailing stupidity that motivated the founding of Amazon company. Few got organized to order books for customers.
Another dumb move was only dealing with a limited number of book distributors, which limited selection.
Bookstores continue to be odd people, different stores claim different maxims for the industry, I think they are like climate alarmists – saying whatever feels good to them.
Nevertheless, publishers must have badly over-estimated demand for algore’s blather. The price sounds low for remainders if it once was a strong seller.
Maybe he is coming out with a new edition. All he’d have to do is substitute “warming” with “cooling” and he might get another Nobel Lariat.
His Warholian fifteen minutes has finally passed.

text: Streets of Buenos Aires is a book that captures the culture, history, and the people of Buenos Aires through the utilization of photography and supporting research. The purpose of this work was to create an eye opening experience for the viewer where he or she could not only read about the cultural differences in South America, but also see those descriptions come to life through photography. This book was created not only to bring awareness to the general public of Argentina's culture, but also to provide other students interested in study abroad with a reference to a peer's experience abroad. Streets of Buenos Aires will be distributed through relevant offices on campus such as the Honors College and Rinker Center, in order to share the information that has been gathered. The main components of this project include photography, supporting research, and the physical production of a book through blurb.com. Streets of Buenos Aires is divided into four central chapters: culture, professions, the national strike, and the life of the city. These divisions were created to organize a broad scope of the successes, struggles, and cultural differences of an Argentine's life.

Surviving Crazy ....my life with bipolar and cancer and ....: I don't know what to do?
I just posted on Facebook ......"I can't believe that it's exactly a year ago that I was on my way to hospital and really thought I was going to kick the bucket! Right now I'm feeling extra grateful that I'm still here... And very much alive and kicking :-)"
Truth is, I don't feel alive at all. I'm really struggling with everything and I don't know what to do. I keep telling everyone I'm fine. I'm not lying, a lot of the time I am. I am managing to get by. I'm managing to hide how I'm feeling but it's so hard. I keep telling myself I'm coping well but a lot of the time I'm not and I really don't know how to handle it. It's a couple of months now since I decided to stop my medication. I can't say if it's made any huge difference. I was a mess with it and I'm still a mess without it. Some things are better, some things are worse. I've got so much going on at the moment and I can't seem to work out what's what. I've got stuff going on that would test anyone's mental health....bipolar or not. I don't want to panic and go back on medication just because things aren't perfect in my life. I've been trying to sort things.
The best thing that's happened is that I've got a part time job. It's been really good for me so far. I've got something different to focus on for a few hours.
The worst thing is that I just can't sleep. I haven't had more than three or four hours sleep a night for weeks. Sometimes less. I go to sleep ok but I just keep waking up every five minutes. Then I can't stop ruminating about everything and everybody. It's wearing me down. I can't think straight. This is the first time I've written a blog for ages. It's not that I haven't had anything to say, it's just that I haven't been able to concentrate for long enough to get it on paper.
When I went to see my psychiatrist last week he was adamant that he thinks I should go back on the Lithium. He gave me a long lecture about diabetes and what would happen if someone stops their insulin. I know all about diabetes, I don't need a lecture. It's a completely different thing. The only advice he gave about my sleep was to keep a sleep diary. I haven't done it. I can't. By the time I remember to do it I haven't got a clue what I was thinking of when I woke up in the night....anything and everything. I've got so much I want to write about but I've had enough for now. I'm reading back what I've written and I really don't have a clue if I'm making any sense at all. I feel really vulnerable at the moment and I know I need to try and get a grip before something bad happens.
