If you’ve decided to take the plunge and invest in your very first Windows computer, you might feel a little out of your depth. Of course you can just turn it on and start browsing the internet, but we think you’ll more than likely want to make your computer your own. So where should you start?
The very first step is to turn on the computer. To do this, simply find and press the power button. Unfortunately this in a different place on every PC, but it’s easily navigable by the universal power button symbol.
Once you’ve pressed it and your computer has been brought to life, it may take a little longer than usual to boot up. Don’t be alarmed if you see a few different displays on the screen – this is normal. This process can take anywhere between 15 seconds and five minutes.
Once the computer has booted up, it’s time to start personalizing it. Create your own profile by heading to the Control Panel and clicking on User Accounts. You can add in a password, change the name and picture, and a whole host of other settings. Sometimes your computer will prompt you to do this as soon as it boots up however.
To really make your computer your own, upload your favorite dog photo, family portrait or picture of your beloved car and set it as your wallpaper. Simply right click on the mouse or trackpad and tap personalize. You can also alter colors, the lock screen, themes, and Start menu.
Your new computer hopefully won’t let you down for many years, but it’s always advised to ensure you have all your important documents backed up elsewhere. External hard drives are the obvious choice as they simply mirror what’s in your documents and provide a back-up should disaster strike.
Once you’ve got all the basics in place, it’s time to enjoy your new purchase!
Sheila Morris will discuss growing up “half and half,” as the daughter of a Chinese father and white mother, during a special presentation March 13 at the Owatonna Arts Center.
The event, scheduled for 7 p.m., is co-sponsored by the Owatonna chapter of the American Association of University Women (AAUW), Steele County Home Economics Association, and the OAC, which is offering the venue for the presentation, said the AAUW’s Mary Kaye Tillmann. A $5 fee will be charged at the door, and net proceeds benefit the OAC.
Tillmann had seen Jessica Huang’s play, “The Paper Dreams of Harry Chin” — which focuses on the relationship of Chin, his daughter (Morris), and various other relatives — and it’s “wonderful,” she said. Morris spoke to the audience following the performance, and when Tillmann learned Morris resides in Waseca, she began contemplating ways to land her as a speaker for the AAUW.
Initially, Morris viewed the play as a way of honoring her father — and family in general — but, as her brother, Roger, observed, “it’s your story,” and “he was right,” Morris said. “It’s from my perspective,” and other members of the family would naturally have different perspectives.
Like Morris, Huang is “multi-cultural,” even introducing Morris to the word “hapa,” which means “part white and part Asian,” and Huang discovered the family story in a book titled “The Chinese in Minnesota,” Morris said. For that historical book, Morris and her father were interviewed by author Sherri Gebert Fuller, and when Morris later met Huang for coffee, she felt a special kinship with the playwright.
She also learned more about her father, “a paper son,” through the production, she said. For example, Huang discovered the entire 123-page transcript of Chin’s interrogation when he came ashore in California.
Chinese immigrants who were the “children” of Chinese-American citizens only on paper — fraudulent documents with false names — earned the “paper sons” moniker, according to NPR. Blood relatives of American-born Chinese, as well as Chinese merchants, teachers and students, were among the exceptions to the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 that barred Chinese laborers from entering America.
Though the ring of “paper sons” was eventually discovered, the United States government—noting how so many of the illegal immigrants were productive members of society, as well as the fact China was a communist regime—instituted a confession program, she said. President Lyndon Johnson signed legislation to essentially forgive them, but they had to become naturalized citizens, which her father did in the late 1960s.
Her father — like so many of his countrymen — came to America for economic opportunity, since China, especially in rural areas, was impoverished, she said. Youth took seriously the cultural imperative to care for their elders, so earning money was pivotal, and Chin escaped China on one of the last ships to leave harbor as the Japanese closed in on the country’s coasts during World War II.
“I had never thought about (my father’s) time on the ship” over from China, a journey where many passengers committed suicide in despair they would fail the interrogation, Morris said. Many more killed themselves in holding cells after either failing the inquisition or during the interminable wait for admittance into America.
Her father first went to Chicago’s Chinatown, but — told by associates he’d never learn English there — migrated to the Port Arthur Café in St. Paul to work, she said. There, he met Laura, Sheila’s mother.
The AGM will take place on Monday 31 March 2014 at 10.00 a.m. at the Company’s premises in Stockholm at Regeringsgatan 20, 9th floor.
The Board of Directors proposes that a share split 2:1 combined with a compulsory redemption procedure shall be carried out. The procedure will imply that each share will split into one ordinary share and one redemption share. The redemption share will then be redeemed for SEK 2.60 per share, representing a transfer of approximately SEK 137 million to the Company’s shareholders.
A rocket attack by ISIS militants in northern Syria caused symptoms of “chemical gas” in 22 Syrian rebels, state media cited the Turkish armed forces as saying on Sunday.
The attack targeted Turkey-backed rebels who have been besieging the ISIS-controlled town of al-Bab for days. Al-Bab is a major target in the “Euphrates Shield” operation to push the extremists away from the Syrian side of the Turkish border.
The Turkish military said the rocket attack was in Syria’s Haliliye area, according to state-run Anadolu agency. It did not specify when the attack occurred.
Media reports said Turkish AFAD emergency relief teams had conducted various tests on the affected rebels for traces of chemical materials at a hospital in Turkey’s border province of Kilis.

Ozier Muhammad/The New York TimesReynaldo Rodriguez of the Care Coordination program counseled a patient with H.I.V. on how to adhere to a drug regimen.
Doctors are very good at telling us what to do — but we are very poor at doing it. In fact, the health problems of millions of Americans are directly related to our failure to follow doctors’ orders.
Doctors tell us to take our pills, exercise, go get that C.T. scan, stop smoking, change our diets, cut out salt, quit drinking, monitor our blood sugar. We know we should do it, but we very often don’t. About three-quarters of patients do not keep appointments for follow-up care. In one study of diabetes patients, only 7 percent were compliant enough with their treatment plans to control the disease. Even people at grave and immediate risk do not always take their medicines: a quarter of kidney transplant patients in one study did not take their medicines correctly, putting them at risk for organ rejection. Among elderly patients with congestive heart failure, 15 percent of repeat hospitalizations were linked to failure to take prescribed medicines. And compliance with exercise and diet programs is even worse. Poor compliance is a major reason that sick people don’t get better, and that our health care costs are so high.
It is a reason that often gets ignored. Many doctors are uncomfortable wrestling with adherence. They may even believe that it is not their problem, that their job is done when they write the prescription or hand the patient a diet plan. But even concerned doctors would find themselves helpless in a 10-minute office visit. They are too removed from their patients, too much the authority figure to really get to the bottom of why a patient isn’t doing what he is supposed to.
Bad adherence doesn’t discriminate by social class. Tens of millions of Americans struggle with high cholesterol and blood pressure and yet can’t manage to stick to an exercise program. Far fewer — but far sicker and more expensive to the health care system — are the handful of emergency room frequent flyers: people with multiple serious conditions such as AIDS, diabetes, hypertension, depression, mental illness, social isolation, substance abuse or domestic violence. Such people have extraordinary problems sticking to their plans to get better, and need extraordinary help.
Joe McManus is a 56-year-old former heroin and crack addict who lives in a single-resident-occupancy apartment in Manhattan. He spent 15 years as an addict, about 10 of them homeless. In some ways, he’s far from the typical homeless person. He used to work on Wall Street and still retains some of his Wall Street friends. In 2005, one of those friends took him to the Super Bowl.
In other ways, he is absolutely typical of drug users who have hit bottom. McManus has AIDS, Hepatitis C and liver problems. “My doctors went three or four years with me not showing up,” he said in a recent interview in his apartment. “I had no relationship with her — except for her to put me in the hospital because I didn’t listen to what she had to say. I was still not addressing the fact that I was H.I.V.-positive. I was not taking my medicine and only going to the hospital when I had to be put in the hospital. I was still messing around with drugs.” McManus was hospitalized four times in the year before November, 2009. Then he got a visit from Reynaldo Rodriguez.
When Rodriguez first visited McManus, he had already quit drugs, on his own. But he was still living as if he were homeless. His apartment was covered with soot and grime, the bed had cigarette burns and the refrigerator held moldy food. McManus was treating his apartment like it was the street. “How the hell are you living like this?” Rodriguez blurted out.
It made a difference. McManus started taking his medicines. The medicines brought down his viral load — he was getting better, and that motivated him to take care of himself. McManus is thin and twitchy, but when I saw him was dressed in jeans and a nice zippered sweater, and the apartment was in reasonable condition. McManus is now 100 percent adherent to his medicines, and his hospital stays amounted to only a single night in the last 16 months. He said that part of it was a spiritual awakening, but it was clear that Rodriguez played a huge role. McManus now goes to all his doctor’s appointments on his own.
But that doesn’t mean he follows all of his doctor’s advice. He’s no longer doing crack, but he’s still drinking — several nights a week he goes to hang out in a friend’s bar. He loves the bar — it’s his entire social network.
But his Hepatitis C makes this dangerous behavior, and his doctor was stern: “You can not ever have a drink again. Not even on your birthday,” she told him. “I never have to tell you if I ever have one,” McManus thought to himself.
Rodriguez and McManus worked out a compromise: he could keep going to the bar, but he had to tell his friends about his health problems so they would put the brakes on. He had to try to drink less, and keep doing tests that monitored his liver.
“He’s been very honest with me,” Rodriguez said. Why more than with your doctor? I asked McManus.
“She’s a doctor,” he said.
The Care Coordination program, a city-wide initiative now in 28 sites in different hospitals around New York, was inspired and trained by a Boston-based program called PACT, for Prevention, Access to Care and Treatment. PACT is part of Partners in Health — a nongovernmental group famous for its work in Haiti, Rwanda and elsewhere. Part of Partners’ strategy is to use people from the community who are paid a stipend to visit patients, watch them take their pills and support them. Since 1995, PACT has been using these ideas in tough neighborhoods of Boston, first with H.I.V. patients and now with people with chronic diseases such as diabetes. The PACT project trains people from the community, some of whom have the same diseases and similar problems as their patients, to be community health workers.
The new health reform law encourages pilot programs to try different forms of medical homes, and the better care and cost savings that come from improving adherence with peers or lay people like Rodriguez are attractive. The New Yorker magazine writer Atul Gawande recently profiled two clinics that use this model, in Atlantic City and Camden, N.J.
There are successful programs that use nurses for outreach. The Nurse-Family Partnership sends nurses to visit low-income first-time mothers, beginning in pregnancy and continuing until the child is two. The program now operates in 32 states and has proven to greatly improve the life of both child and mother. The Camden program that Gawande wrote about also uses nurses and nurse practitioners to make home visits.
But nurses are expensive home visitors, and they may not even be the best people for the job. “Given the rising cost of health care, we have found having peer-based health promoters providing care management is an equally effective way to provide high-quality care at a low cost,” said Ayesha Cammaerts, the director of operations at PACT. “Especially with patients who suffer from substance abuse and mental health issues, they need someone they feel comfortable letting into their environment. Sometimes patients don’t feel they can connect to clinicians from outside their community,” she said.
PACT’s methods work. A study of AIDS patients found that the patients’ use of appropriate medicines rose — they were becoming adherent. At the same time, spending on hospitalization dropped by nearly two-thirds. Overall, patient costs dropped by 36 percent. Even taking into account the $6,000-per-patient cost of PACT, patient costs dropped 16 percent. And in a group of people who would likely have died if they had not been in the program, 70 showed clinical improvement.
The PACT method is likely to be an important part of the future of American medicine. Many of the deficiencies of American health care require not more technology, but the human touch. It’s certainly true for high-risk, high-cost patients, but it can help nearly everyone get better health for less money. In Saturday’s column, I’ll write about how.
“You know Mass Effect, don’t you?” asks Graham over IM, neatly ensuring that anything I remember about Mass Effect is instantly expunged from my brain bar the lone figure of Mordin singing I Am The Very Model Of A Scientist Salarian.
CLANG, went the jaws of the trap, snapping round my leg with incredible force. “Graham don’t leave me here! Where are you going???”While I wave burning torches at the circling, slavering newshounds, here is some information about the Mass Effect Andromeda [official site] multiplayer which comes via Game Informer and their hands-on preview.
The big thing I’m taking away from their article is that the single player and multiplayer modes are interlinked but one does not depend on the other. It sounds like they’re going for a softer approach than with Mass Effect 3. In ME3 you had a multiplayer mode where completing those co-op missions impacted your single player ending. As I recall, it wasn’t mandatory to do the co-op stuff and you could still get the perfect ending but it became difficult to do so and thus the push towards co-op got a bit heavy-handed. That said, I’m pretty sure I didn’t feel pushed to do any co-op and I think I took the synthesis ending which means my galactic readiness must have been alright.
With Andromeda the idea seems to be that you shouldn’t feel obliged to play multiplayer if you don’t want to, but that multiplayer isn’t entirely separated from the single player experience either.
Obviously this is just me thinking aloud now, but from that I’m imagining maybe some resources/in-game credits you can get from multiplayer that make some aspects in single-player a bit easier, or maybe just give you cosmetics you can wear as you wander about. There also seems to be the option that reminds me of Dragon Age where you could send people to go do side missions on your behalf. There’s also another game I can’t think of the name of right now which does something similar – you could send people off from your party to go do things and they would level up a bit. Oh! Pillars Of Eternity! That was it.
Going back to Andromeda, it sounds like there have also been changes to things like cooldown timers (switching from global to individual) and some twiddling to stop people hiding in one spot. The latter is a pretty standard tweak for any PvP or PvE experience. You want players to have to move around rather than camp a single spot. It happened multiple times across Destiny patches and expansions, especially with group PvE stuff where encounters would get remixed and safe zones became noticeably less safe. You can read more about those aspects plus jetpack stuff, prestige and so on over on GI.
Now, can someone let me out of the news trap before I kill anymore innocent newshounds with my singing and torch flailing?

And yet the Cardinals are in position to complete a three-game sweep of the Cubs on Sunday night after erasing deficits of 4-0 and 6-4 on Saturday before Kolten Wong's two-run walk-off homer in the 10th inning capped an 8-6 victory Saturday.
The win, however, cost the first-place Cardinals center fielder Tommy Pham, who left in the second inning with right groin tightness, catcher Yadier Molina, who left the game in the ninth inning after being hit by a foul tip, and closer Bud Norris in the 10th inning with a triceps injury.
According to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, manager Mike Matheny told reporters that all three players were candidates for replacements.
Despite the injuries, though, the Cardinals improved to 3-1 this season against the two-time defending National League Central champions.
"I've never (played) in the World Series or those kinds of games," Cardinals outfielder Marcel Ozona told reporters after he tied the game in the ninth inning with a two-run double. "This feels like more of a regular game."
But after trailing twice Saturday, including by two runs late, St. Louis' latest win felt like so much more than a normal game in early May.
"I'm telling you, we never feel like we're out of it," Cardinals third baseman Matt Carpenter told reporters, according to the team's official website. "This was a really great win for us, and everybody had a piece of it."
Michael Wacha (4-1, 3.62 ERA) will try to deliver the series sweep for the Cardinals, who have won four straight games.
Wacha won four straight games in April before he registered a no-decision last week against the Chicago White Sox when he allowed two runs and scattered five hits in five innings. Wacha is 4-7 with a 6.41 ERA in 16 games (14 starts) against the Cubs.
The Cubs will enter Sunday's primetime showdown having lost four straight games after putting together five straight victories. The Cubs finally showed promise offensively Saturday, when they snapped a nine-game string of games in which they scored three or fewer runs.
But after blowing two different leads as their slide continued, the Cubs will attempt to get back on track in Sunday's series finale.
The back and forth Cubs performance has been difficult to predict after they finished a 5-2 homestand despite struggling to score runs.
Manager Joe Maddon found silver linings in the Cubs' recent roller coaster ride and continues to point to how early in the season his team's Jekyll and Hyde act has surfaced.
"Regardless of what your plan may be, teams are going to go through these moments," Maddon told reporters before Saturday's game, according to the Chicago Tribune. "It just happens to be ours right now. I want to continue to work like we've been working. I believe in our guys and believe in our methods. It's just the ebb and flow of the season. Right now, it's our turn. We'll come out of it and be fine."
Jon Lester will take the mound for the Cubs. Lester (2-1, 2.73) has already beaten the Cardinals once this season when he threw six innings and allowed an unearned run and two hits April 19. Lester is 6-4 with a 3.16 ERA in 15 career starts against the Cardinals.
The N/E corner of Queen and John as illustrated in 1851. Interesting because two of the buildings survive to this day. The W. H. Brayley dry goods store was the Beverly Tavern for years and if you look closely the small shop to the left (W.H. Smith), is still there and still selling books as a BMV outlet!
I had a good look at the BMV today (including the basement) and realize that the building has at some point been rebuilt on top of the original rubble foundation.
A little research shows that WH Smith did not enter the Canadian market until 1958.
A view of the distinctive roof line from the 1840’s (or so) and the original St Patrick’s Market.
St George the Martyr Church can be seen in the distance.
The same building (now the famous Beverley Tavern) in the early 1980’s. Photo by Patrick Cummins. The distinctive roof line can still be identified under the modern facade.

On the map below from 1858 the Market and the dry goods store are both evident.
