Another rain delay cut short some exceptional golf Friday at the Presidents Cup.
Phil Mickelson and Keegan Bradley shot 30 on the front nine at Muirfield Village in Dublin, Ohio, an astounding performance in foursomes. Only some sloppy play allowed the match to go 15 holes in a 4-and-3 win over Jason Day and Graham DeLaet.
"We were down but, boy, on 5 we just turned it on and played some of our best golf," Mickelson said.
Right behind them, Brendon de Jonge began to emerge as a star of the International team. He teamed with Ernie Els in a 4-and-3 win over Hunter Mahan and Bill Hass. They were 8 under when the match ended at the 15th.
"This guy, he played beautiful and we both played well today," Els said.
The Americans had a 4-3 lead, although four matches were in progress when darkness descended on Muirfield Village.
For the second day in a row, storms interrupted play for almost three hours and left a bleak outlook for finishing Sunday.
The other four matches the Americans were up in two, the International led the other two were to resume this morning.
Tiger Woods and Matt Kuchar were 6 under through eight holes and still only had a 1-up lead over Louis Oosthuizen and Charl Schwartzel. Oosthuizen missed a short par putt on the ninth to lose another hole, and the former British Open champion made an even greater blunder on the par-3 12th. After Woods went long of the green, Oosthuizen's 7-iron leaked to the right and hopped into the water. The Americans won with a bogey and were 3 up with six holes to play when they stopped.
Steve Stricker and 20-year-old Jordan Spieth finally seized control of their match when Spieth made a 15-foot birdie putt on the par-3 eighth, and the Texan made another key birdie on the 12th. They were 3 up with four holes remaining. Angel Cabrera and Marc Leishman overcame an early deficit and were 1 up with five holes remaining against Webb Simpson and Brandt Snedeker. The International team had control of the other match. Hideki Matsuyama and Adam Scott lost only one hole and were 4 up with seven holes remaining against Zach Johnson and Jason Dufner.
Today is the busiest day for the Presidents Cup, with five fourballs matches early and five foursomes matches late. It concludes with 12 singles matches Sunday, although the forecast is not any better, especially for Sunday.
Nicolas Colsaerts and Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano matched the biggest winning margin in Seve Trophy history, beating Britain and Ireland's Paul Lawrie and Stephen Gallacher in fourballs play to help Continental Europe take a 5-4 lead in the competition being held in Saint-Nom-La-Breteche, France. … Jessica Korda shot a 5-under 68 to take a two-stroke lead after the second round of the smog-shrouded Reignwood Classic in Beijing, China.

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
This release brings minor tweaks, and is likely to be the last update to the 2.0.18 branch. If you're happily using 22.214.171.124 already with no issues, I would regard this upgrade as optional.
good work
grep is your friend.
I don't currently have the time to follow the forum (especially as the css/js is from http://autostatic.cl1.vanilladev.com which is blocked at work, hence the forum is unusable there), but still following the commits.
Looking forward to 2.1.
There is now a package for vanilla 22.214.171.124 available for Arch Linux:
i dont think i need that yet, ill wait for the next release.
When can we expect the upgrade with all of the badge/medal system goodies?
I have the same problem as sternman, I don't know what I'm doing wrong :-D
please Help me :-D
it seems that one day when i open http://vanillaforums.org, it will be 100% proprietary, 100$/month forum engine...
i'm afraid you guys go in wrong direction...too greedy...
consequences would be 0 community commits, 0 new innovative integration and finally turning to other blogging engines... i'm already looking for new one...
You don't have any serious developer docs, code is hell, and you claim "opensource"?... pushing ppl to buy something would not result in prosperity IMHO
^^^^^^^ dislike. developers are already doing their best to give us the best out of box.
Theme Charcha for great desktop and mobile experience! - drop me a message
valajbeg - they're giving it to you for free.
You are free to look elsewhere if you think you can find a better solution to your needs.
Personally, I'm delighted with Vanilla, and so are my users.
@valajbeg, Vanilla is released under GPLv2. That actually has a meaning which completely contradicts what you are saying.
I must say that when people like you post ignorant comments it does annoy me a little bit. Maybe you can actually look into the meaning of open source or stop talking about it hmm?
@valajbeg have you signed the Contributors Agreement?
Nevermind, it looks like you haven't. Which means you haven't made any contributions to the code either.
Which means keep your ignorant, uninformed comments to yourself. Having read through a brief google search of your email address, it looks like you whine on the support forum of several other projects too: wordpress, netbeans, kannel.
The problem is you.
I'm very new to Vanilla 2, and things are a bit different to the Vanilla 1 I was once familiar with. Can anyone help me with a couple of very simple questions please:
How do I determine exactly which version of vanilla I have? There used to be a notice at the bottom of the sidebar, but I can't find anything like that now. Or do I have to keep track of that each time I upgrade?
Is there any simple way to upgrade without re-loading every file? (There used to be a list of changed files for each version change, but I can't find that either now.)
I cannot get two plugins to work on v18, even though they worked on 17. Could this latest upgrade help that???
Thanks for putting up with my obviously dumb questions! : )
Your version number can be found at the bottom right of any screen in the Dashboard.
Right now we upgrade manually. We've got plans for an updater, it just keeps getting sidelined.
Which plugins?
For upgrades, the easiest way is using git.
Eek, where isn't a theme being applied after completing an upgrade?
I just upgraded by following these instructions: I backed up my MySQL DB and forum files, remained logged in on userid=1, copied the unpacked contents of new version zip to forum directory overwriting the old files, deleted .ini files, and ran /utility/structure (successfully). It was when I ran utility/structure that I noticed my forum was devoid of a theme.
The forum appears to basically function properly (and the mobile theme renders just fine on my iPhone 4s, on which I was also logged in as userid=1) but is devoid of styles. Do I have a permissions issue, or is something else happening? Thanks in advance for any help - I love Vanilla Forums. It's really helped my organization improve its communication and build a strong community.
FYI, I am re-uploading the new version files again to see if that magically solves my problem. #shotinthedark Edited: It did not work. I just noticed that my config.php has not been updated. I am going to try changing permissions on that file and running utility/update again.
My apologies. It actually has been updated. Still no theme, though.
Nevermind...it was an incompatible plugin (of course).

Minify broke it once, as did Twitter Feeds.
I have many plug-ins installed and my update through simple scripts was without error. It's a very good way to keep updated.
It would be nice to have an update button similar to wordpress.
If you disable your plug-in & themes folders (rename) prior to updating, this may eliminate any clashes. After update rename your folders back and refresh your site.
Minify has never worked for me. I tried in 2.0.17 and 2.0.18.
Am I missing some kind of configuration?
Minify works for me but - did you try it on localhost or somewhere live?
Theme Charcha for great desktop and mobile experience! - drop me a message
I would really recommend a overhaul on the User Profiles over the next few releases.
If i have a hosting provider, can i use vanilla for free?
Yes you can.
Vanilla offer to host forums, but the package is open source and free.
Thanks. I have a running forum with 15K posts. I wanst to migrate from phpbb3.0.9 to vanilla2. Is there any tool to redirect the previous urls? otherwise all the pages indexed in google will be lost
I think this will help you with that: http://vanillaforums.com/blog/help/importing-data/
there is no such mention of redirection. I will have to wait for google to index again. That is a year of work undone. Is anyone thinking of some script that will help doing that?

Theyll travel by car, truck and bus; boat and plane; elephant and dogsled. But the shoe boxes donated by millions of Americans will be at their destinations long before Santa Claus sleigh takes off on Christmas Eve.
The shoe boxes are filled with gifts ranging from toys and school supplies to personal hygiene items and notes from donors. They are presented to poor children around the world in the largest project of its type in the world, Operation Christmas Child.
CeCe Sallee, the coordinator for Southwest Colorados part of Operation Christmas Child, reported that church members and individuals sent 3,513 shoe boxes Monday. They were trucked in from Cortez and Pagosa Springs as well as being collected in Durango.
The total fell slightly short of the goal of 3,650 boxes, which local organizers hoped to collect as part of a 9.1 million shoe box goal set by Samaritans Purse, the national group that organizes Operation Christmas Child.
Millions of hurting children who are victims of poverty, natural disaster, war, terrorism and famine receive Operation Christmas Child shoe box gifts, Samaritans Purse said in a news release. For some of these boys and girls, it is the first gift they have ever received. Through the power of a simple gift and the message of hope through Jesus Christ, these children learn that they are loved and not forgotten.
Collection numbers for this season are not available yet, said Karen Dye of The DeMoss Group, which handles media relations for Samaritans Purse. The collection centers are closed, and the shoe boxes are en route to seven processing centers across the U.S., where they will be counted and then shipped to countries around the world. We wont know until mid-December if we met our goal.
If the goal is met, Samaritans Purse will have crossed the 100 million mark in 2012.
The boxes will travel around the world to 99 countries ranging from Albania to Zimbabwe. Theyll end up in Eastern Europe, South and Central America, Africa, Asia and remote locations such as Madagascar, the Seychelles and the Solomon Islands. Those who registered their shoe boxes can now track them to the country where they will be delivered.
One strength of the project is how it encourages children to help children. Alan Studer, a volunteer with the First United Methodist Church of Durango, which served as the collection point for Southwest Colorado, said one of this years highlights was a visit from a teenage girl from Norwood, who helped deliver shoe boxes in Mongolia last year.
Another child is going to have a special honor this year.
Evilyn Pinnow, 12, of Fort Atkinson, Wis., will deliver the 100 millionth shoe box in the Dominican Republic. She was selected because of her long-term support of Operation Christmas Child.
In 2009, at age 8, Evilyn founded the Shoe Box Club, recruiting other children from her town to solicit donations of shoe boxes and contents, which the club would assemble every month.
This year, when the club hoped to reach the 1,900 shoe box mark, to ensure the club continues as she grows up, Evilyn encouraged the club to make the rule that board members cant be any older than the sixth grade.

Blog ini mungkin dapat membantu anda untuk mencari rezeki halal di bumi UAE
The transformation of Dubai from dusty desert town to sparkling, affluent metropolis has been underway for the past 40 years and it is really in the last 10 years that the pace of development and change has really begun to show. Dubai has gone from being a location where only people desperate enough for hardship allowances moved to work, to a stunning city where a hedonistic lifestyle can be enjoyed by almost everyone.
However, not everything about Dubai and its transformation has been wonderful and in this warts and all account we reveal the truth about living in Dubai, the good, the bad and the little mentioned!
The Good
Climate – between October and June the weather in Dubai is ideal; bright sunny days can be enjoyed as the temperatures are comfortable rather than stiflingly hot. From July to September inclusive it does get over-hot and in the winter it can occasionally rain, but most of the time the climate in Dubai is attractive.
Beaches – Dubai is blessed with stunning beaches, many of which have been augmented with the addition of fantastic beach clubs where all the family can enjoy a great day out.
Lack of Crime – because crimes are punishable so severely, crime levels are incredibly low in Dubai – by the way, you might want to bear in mind that if you get a point on your driving license when in Dubai you're looking at jail time!
Shopping – yum, yum, yum – all the most wonderful shops in one fantastic location! You have everything from the likes of Ikea and H&M on the affordable side to every conceivable designer outlet on the other side!
Tax Free – tax free salaries….need I say more?
The Lifestyle – pubs, beach clubs, amazing restaurants, sports clubs, parties and much, much more besides –living in Dubai the lifestyle is everything!
Price of Petrol – currently everyone in Dubai jokes about the fact that it's cheaper to buy petrol than mineral water.
The Bad
Property Prices – if you bought property in Dubai a couple of years ago you won't care about this point, but for anyone else knowing that the price of property in Dubai has been spiralling upwards for the past few years means that it is depressingly expensive to get on the property ladder.
Rental Rates – rental rates are even worse! They shot up as there was a lack of property stock and an abundance of demand, those landlords who had properties to rent took what they could before the government capped annual rental rate increases but this means that today prices are sky high. Jumeirah and Umm Suqeim are popular but seriously expensive areas to rent a home, those with a bit less cash in their pockets to chuck away on rent could look at either Barsha or Mirdif – but for the most of us even these locations are too dear.
The Driving – driving in Dubai is stressful – on Sheikh Zayed Road drivers will do anything to get ahead including using the hard shoulder as an additional lane. If you can keep a calm head you'll be alright but if you get easily riled expect to have high blood pressure.
Infrastructure – roads are clogged, rush hour traffic is atrocious, drains are overflowing and Dubai has grown faster than its infrastructure has developed meaning that it is beginning to really creak!
Summer Temperatures – while the climate is usually fantastic between October and May, it's a killer in July and August and it can be dangerous for young children and older people because temperatures average above 40 degrees centigrade every single day. Those expatriates living in Dubai usually try and get away from the emirate during these months or else spend their entire time in an air conditioned environment.
School Fees – schools fees in Dubai are extortionate and not likely to reduce because the international schools that are there know they have a captive audience. School fees really must not be underestimated or overlooked by anyone with a family considering relocating to the emirate.
The Little Mentioned
The Humidity – while summertime temperatures are a bad thing, the humidity which can reach up to 80% coupled with temperatures in excess of 40 degrees centigrade makes living in Dubai in the summer unpleasant – to say the least!
No More Medical Cover – most companies no longer provide their expatriate staff with an allowance for medical care – this means expatriate health insurance is a must and an additional expense to face.
No More Education Allowances – in the good old days companies used to lure staff to Dubai with allowances for all sorts of things including the education of their children, sadly Dubai is now too nice a place with too many people all competing for jobs and so employers no longer have to bother with offering such attractive incentives.
Get Recruited First – if you want to work in Dubai get a job before you come! You are far more likely to get a better financial deal and a more attractive employment package than if you find work locally.
You Need a Degree – if you haven't got a degree your employer may find it hard to get a visa for you, you will be paid less and you may not get into managerial positions at all.
Living in Sin – it's not acceptable for an unmarried couple to cohabit – so the best way round this is to avoid situations where you will have to admit to being unmarried!
Rain – contrary to popular belief it can and does sometimes rain in Dubai – and when it does rain even the most expensive houses have been known to leak dramatically, drains block, roads flood and there is mud everywhere.
Those who work in Dubai work long hours for up to six days a week, and in certain industries salaries are impressive – but in other job sectors wages are on a par with or worse than the income that can be earned elsewhere. Therefore those looking for jobs in Dubai should take care to do proper research and due diligence before committing themselves to a career move.
All the major recruitment companies have a base in Dubai as there is a large and expanding jobs market in the UAE, it's possible to use these recruitment companies' websites to get a feel for the jobs being offered and rates of pay available in your particular industry sector.Another way to get a feel for the level of income you could earn from a job in Dubai is by researching which employers from your industry are based in the UAE and then writing to their personnel department with your CV or resume and asking about suitable vacancies.
Of course salary is not necessarily the be all and end all of job hunting – especially in Dubai where it's usual for an employer to present a remuneration package offer to a potential candidate. Such a package may include a housing allowance, health care benefits and even money towards children's education.
Therefore assessing rates of pay is less simple than at first glance. Both housing and schooling in Dubai are expensive and any offer of assistance from an employer should be seen as being very valuable and should be taken into account with income offered and then compared with the hours that will need to be worked each week to determine whether the offer is attractive or not.
As stated the working week in Dubai is long for the majority of people – working hard and socialising hard is a way of life in the emirate. Those seeking jobs in Dubai should try and get a feel for what life will be like in the emirate for them and any accompanying family members and should be willing to accept that twelve hour shifts are the norm.
If you're looking for a job in Dubai and are committed to your career, happy to put in the hours, free to socialise whenever you want and available to network whenever you need then Dubai could well represent a great opportunity. If on the other hand you're travelling with family and considering jobs in Dubai where you will have to work long hours then you need to accept and be comfortable with the fact that you will probably have less free time to spend with your family.
Forums are a good place to get feedback from people already living and working in Dubai and recruitment companies are a good place to get practical advice about finding a job, securing a visa and relocating to the UAE.
The bottom line is that the cost of living in Dubai is quite high, but the standard of living is also very high and because personal taxes are non-existent in the emirate this reduces the overall financial burden for those living and working in the UAE.
Those who are headhunted, relocated or offered a good job in Dubai should consider negotiating a housing package as part of their overall remuneration deal because renting property in Dubai is the single highest outlay that the majority of people face. It's a fact that there is limited completed housing stock available in Dubai at the present time and this has meant that landlords have been able to push up rental rates which in turn has inflated the cost of living in Dubai.
The government has placed a cap on annual rental rate hikes but this does not remove the fact that affording accommodation in the emirate is expensive!
For those who choose to buy property in Dubai the choice of off-plan properties is huge, but until those properties are completed purchasers will still have to rent. The amount of completed real estate on the market available for sale is limited.
In terms of current rental rates chargeable in Dubai they vary from district to district and property type to property type. A quick hunt around letting agents today reveals furnished 2 bedroom apartments in Dubai Marina available for RM8,000 a month and a one bedroom unfurnished apartment available in Dubai Marina for RM80,000 annually for which the tenant would have to pay the total in a maximum of two instalments. Villas and serviced apartments are also available throughout the emirate with villas starting from RM7,000 a week.
After accommodation one of the most expensive aspects of living in Dubai is socialising, and because the emirate is such a sociable place with everyone meeting to network, make friends and relax, expats living in Dubai will often find they eat and drink out a few times a week.
Additional expenses that some tend to overlook initially include health care and education services for those who travel with their families to live in the emirate.
Private schools in the UAE are expensive although the standards of education are generally very high. Private expatriate health care is also expensive and anyone should consider shopping round for the best health insurance policies. Other regular expenses incurred will include taxi travel and/or petrol as well as maid or cleaning services which are all relatively inexpensive – although a lot will depend on the budget you're going to have to live on in Dubai!
There are definitely ways to cut down on the cost of living by flat sharing, cutting down on nights out and shopping locally in markets and smaller shops rather than in large malls and supermarkets – but most people who are moving to Dubai are moving to experience the Dubai lifestyle as much as anything!
If you're going to live in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Fujairah, Sharjah or Al Ain for example, you should consider researching your options on the internet and applying online to get your children into your preferred school before you actually relocate to the UAE.
Some international employers who offer their employees relocation packages to the UAE will include school fees as part of the overall remuneration deal; otherwise if you're seeking employment in the UAE and believe you're in a good negotiating position try and have school fees included in your contract. As you can imagine the best schools charge the highest fees and these can seriously eat away an otherwise attractive tax free salary.
In Dubai specifically, the number of international schools is increasing all the time as the population of the emirate expands rapidly and demand for quality education establishments grows. The Dubai English Speaking School for example has expanded to its limits and is now opening a brand new secondary school in 2006 to cater for ever increasing student numbers.
International expatriates have a range of schools to choose from and choice is likely to be dictated by both location and curriculum. The majority of schools have a website where the curriculum, method of teaching and annual fees are discussed and where parents and pupils can get a feel for the school environment. If securing accommodation in UAE is also on the expatriate's list of things to do it might be best to secure school places for children before finding an apartment or villa to rent as schools are spaced out across the UAE and traffic can be quite chaotic at times making it difficult to travel far at peak times.
Ideally find and secure school places in a school as close to your work base as possible and then find accommodation in between the two to avoid grid lock and traffic jams in the morning. Most international schools have bus services which can ease the strain on working parents, but it is still sensible to be as accessible as possible to both your children's school and your place of work
Malaysians like those who herald from the UK or USA have the greatest choice of schools in UAE because the majority of establishments follow either the British or American curriculum, some are Islamic. For those seeking alternatives there are French schools in Dubai and Al Nasr and there's an Australian school and a German school in Sharjah. For a detailed listing of international, British and American Schools try http://english-schools.org/ and for a list of schools specifically in the UAE try http://www.theemiratesnetwork.com/dir/Education/Schools/ where the schools are divided by emirate and where you can find internet links to the majority of institutions listed.

As a longtime member of the backup band for legendary singer Etta James, guitarist Bobby Murray learned how to work hand-in-hand with a vocalist.
He demonstrates that ability on his fine new CD, "I'm Sticking With You."
"Even before I was working with Etta (who died in 2012), I worked with a lot of other singers," said Murray, who celebrates his recording with a CD release party on Friday at the Loving Touch in Ferndale. "I love the guitar, and I've played my share of Albert Collins and Freddie King instrumentals, but my favorite instrument is still the human voice. There's something about it."
"I'm Sticking With You" features vocalists Red Redding, who is a member of the Bobby Murray Band; as well as guest vocalists Barbara Payton, Paul Randolph and Tom Hogarth.
"I try to think in terms of serving as a foil or doing a call-and-response with a fine singer," Murray said.
Redding has performed with Murray's band for about four years, since Murray heard him sing at a club in Detroit.
"His voice spoke to me," Murray said. "I love the quality and timbre of his voice and his super soulful phrasing. I heard some Little Milton and Johnnie Taylor influences in his voice. He can sing down in the alley or a sweet, soulful ballad."
Murray first heard Hogarth sing at a festival in Windsor. Hogarth has previously worked with keyboardist Mark Thibodeau and drummer Renell Gonsalves, who are both members of the Bobby Murray Band, along with bassist Dave Uricek.
"I heard his voice and said to myself 'I've gotta work with this guy,'" Murray said. "He has a wonderful voice."
Murray is thankful for the vocal contributions of Randolph, who performs with Jazzanova and is known world-wide as a multi-talented musician and writer. Randolph will be releasing his third solo album in 2014.
"Paul Randolph is an incredible singer," Murray said. "I've always wanted to work with ever since I heard him play with Mudpuppy."
Another contributor to Murray's new CD is Payton, who fronts the band Barbara Payton and the Instigators, of which Murray is a member.
"She's got so many tones, she has the ability to tap into the deepest part of the human experience," Murray said. "What she does on 'Rock My Soul,' the discipline she uses on one verse where she bumps up an octave at the end, just kills me.
"I have good singers in the band too. Dave Uricek has a wonderful voice and Mark Thibodeau too. All the singers make my words come to life."
Unlike his previous three albums, which featured a mix of original and cover tunes, "I'm Sticking With You" contains 11 songs all written by Murray.
"It's certainly a labor of love, they are songs I've been wanting to do for quite some time," he said. "It's like John Lee Hooker sang in 'Boogie Chillun'' … 'it's in him and it's got to come out.' Like a lot of people, writing is a cathartic release for me.
"I know I'm not Bob Dylan or Percy Mayfield, but I love to do it. It is like a birthing process. First, you start out with one, but they are all my kids and I love 'em all."
Having someone else sings the songs you've written can be a challenge, but Murray -- who praises Brian "Roscoe" White for his contributions on the CD as engineer, mixer, arranger and musician – trusted the creativity of his vocalists.
"I wanted them to be able to express themselves and make the words come to life. I gave them carte blanche and told them 'do it your way.' I completely trusted them.
"It's the best feeling in the world when you put words on a piece of paper, and they looked OK at 3 a.m., but when you see them come to life as a singer breathes life into them is pretty amazing. I'm always knocked out, it just kills me.
"It's the same for the instrumentals too. I love the process of being able to work with people."
The standout vocals, strong songwriting, and Murray's tasty guitar work combine to produce a stellar recording. Murray may have been the one leading the way, but he knows that it was a collaborative effort.
"It's like a school of fish moving as one, although everybody is completely separate."
FYI – The Bobby Murray Band celebrates the release of "I'm Sticking With You" with a CD release and live performance at 9 p.m. Friday at The Loving Touch, 22634 Woodward Ave. in Ferndale. Doors open at 8 p.m. Guest performers are expected to include Paul Randolph, Barbara Payton, master of ceremonies and guitarist Mark "Pazman" Pasman, and vocalist Lenny Watkins. Doors open at 8 p.m. Admission is free.

text: When a 10-year-old boy told his mother he didn't want to have a birthday party because he had no friends to invite, she created aFacebook page to show him how many people really did "like" him. "We were talking about his birthday coming up and I had mentioned it a few times and he said he didn't want a party," Jennifer of Kalamazoo, Michigan told WoodTV. "And I said, 'Why don't you want a party?' [He answered] 'Mom, who am I going to invite? I don't have any friends.'" Bothered by her son's words -- he was diagnosed with a sensory processing disorder and another disorder similar to autism and Asperger syndrome last year -- Jennifer turned to Facebook to surprise her son. She created a page called "Happy Birthday Colin" where she asked friends and family members to wish her son a happy birthday by liking the page."When you put a bunch of 10-year-olds and one who acts like that, and they are all going, 'What's wrong with that kid?' You know, it's hard," she said. Jennifer planned on surprising her son with a couple dozen likes for his birthday on March 9, but instead was shocked when the page started gaining hundreds of thousands of likes from complete strangers. "Some of my friends and their friends will like the page, post some nice comments for his birthday," she said. "It will be a great surprise." But within a week, the page had received 8,600 likes from people all over the world. Colin still does not know about the Facebook page, and mom Jennifer hopes to surprise him with it on his birthday. "He's going to have a lot of friends after this," she told the WoodTV. "They may not live by him, but he's going to have a lot of friends." "Happy Birthday Colin" has nearly 1.2 million likes as of Wednesday morning, and thousands of people turn to the page every day. Jennifer even set up a P.O. box for people to mail Colin birthday cards. Send your birthday wishes to Colin here.

All Suggestions For This Problem - Welcome
Posted Nov 12 2017 - 07:21 PM
in GEM i select driver, the screen changes to Carset=1967 Sportscars (GPLGT)
the track shows Sebring 67 (tho i've tried other tracks and get same result)
car selection is Ferrari 330/p4 (same comment as track result)
CARSET shows CARSGT
season = GTseason
all is as it should be, so i click on GPL and the screen/game loads.
on the left, where you can check team composition and 'add' a new (you) driver.. those work.
but if from that screen i press the green button (lower right) - to where you'd then normally see the tracks... i get CTD
this has worked before, i have some setups (nothing major, just tweaks) and a player for the SC's.
what has changed, was the last time i launched i was using windows XP, and i've now changed to win10
i even attempted reinstalling the two mods, without success of getting them to run.
Sys is Win10 and nVidea GT650 card
rasterizer is set to OpenGL v2
i see the main GPL screen, but when i try to load a track (pressing GREEN button) bang.. CTD.
and the season ini is correct, the tracks are all installed, but i even tried other tracks, and an alternate season ini... same result.
i've deleted the mod specific 'exe' files for GPLsc.exe and GPLx69.exe, closed GEM and restarted to create new files, same result.
all other mods work fine! 65...67 F2, CanAm66 and 71, and the original 69mod... and the most recent 55 mod
i've tried loading other season ini files in GEM with the 69x mod... nope same result.
deleted player, tried different player, added new player...same result
in a nutshell, the 69s and SC mods won't "See" tracks - on pressing the GREEN button to advance to the track selection screen... CTD
if you've got any suggestions, or points i'm not covering, i'd be more than happy to give 'em a go
i'm about out of ideas, short of reinstalling GPL.. but why if all the other mods work?

Those are the two mods that only run with 60fpsV1 patch!
Posted Nov 13 2017 - 07:51 AM
EDIT: Also you say you've switched from XP to Win10 - how did you switch? Did you do a complete reinstall from scratch (from reading your comments, probably not) or did you do an 'upgrade'? What is the directory of your GPL.EXE file? Does the directory "Program Files" or similar appear in the path? Win10 has more strict access controls for program directories, and this can cause problems for GPL. (Although if other mods are running ok, this shouldn't be a problem.)
I will continue to think about this and add new suggestions if I think of anything. Good luck solving it.
EDIT 2: Windows 10 has a new "Defender" anti-virus. Have you installed/activated this, or are you using a different product? Does the anti-virus show any messages about GPL files? (I'm using Win10 Defender, so there shouldn't be any problem, but not all installations are the same.)

Bob...i don't see a difference i have 69-extra in all 3 lines, same as yours
Cookie... NO! i've only been trying to run in 36fps mode - i deleted the 60fps V1 after i thought the V2 improved and replaced
i'll find, install and report soon!

Oops. I was looking at your picture, but didn't realize that it ran off the screen to the right.

Make sure that under the Sierra folder > properties > general > advanced, "allow indexing service" is enabled and "Compress" is disabled and apply it to all subfolders
Posted Nov 13 2017 - 09:05 AM
i don't have it on my sys - should i find/install it again?
Posted Nov 13 2017 - 10:18 AM
One more thing to try is making sure that all the files under GPL are not read-only.

During the 2013 Super Bowl (one infinitely more interesting than the latest one) a beer company showed off a little dog named Here We Go and whenever he heard the name off he trotted to bring back beer. While when I say "here we go" that's not what happens, this week someone, or some pet, bringing a beer at the end of the day might be welcome.
That's right it's time to head for another farm show. If you follow this blog, and please do, you know that I like farm shows. And this week we're firing up to head for the National Farm Machinery Show. Sure our friends in Tulare have a show as well and we have staffers out there from other publications, but for Farm Industry News Louiville, Ky., is our destination.
We're conducting four seminars Wednesday through Friday covering cloud computing, variable rate irrigation, vertical tillage and unmanned aerial systems - check out the seminar list. It's worth checking out. And we honor our FinOvation winners too.
But we're there to look for new products and technologies for your farm. We plan on posting fresh galleries starting this week and they'll carry into next week -there's that much to see. And we know you go to shows for that powerful one-stop opportunity to catch up on the latest tools, machines and technologies for their operations.
If you can't make it, keep checking back, and if you do make it - stop by one of our seminars to check out what companies are up to on these hot topics.
So why do I like farm shows? It's not the endless walking, the crowds or the great food (though shows have great food). It's the chance to connect with key players in the industry. The software and hardware of agriculture is constantly changing, the new biotech tools, the new crop protection products and the new equipment you have to work with is changing.
There's no better place to learn more about that than at a big farm show - whether you're talking National Farm Machinery Show or the World Ag Expo. Either way, and whichever you attend, you'll hve plenty to see. And if you find something very interesting, drop me an email - we're always looking for hot topics and products that farmers find useful for their operations. Just drop a note to email@example.com.
Oh and remember, wear comfortable shoes and enjoy the show.

Warne douses comeback talk
Shane Warne has clarified his comments regarding a Test comeback, declaring that he is "not even considering" such a move in the lead-up to next year's Ashes. Earlier this week, Warne said he had been frustrated with the way Australia's bowlers had let down their captain Michael Clarke during the loss to South Africa in Perth, and if Clarke asked him to make a comeback he was confident he would be able to play to Test standard.
Warne, 43, would have to make such a return through club cricket for St Kilda and Sheffield Shield cricket for Victoria, but he said on Thursday that was not on his radar. Warne, the captain of the Melbourne Stars, was promoting Friday night's Big Bash League season opener between the Stars and the Melbourne Renegades, and he said he had spoken to Clarke during the week to clear up any confusion.
"I spoke to Pup on a few different matters. That's all been pretty cleared up about all that sort of stuff," Warne said. "I'm not asking Michael Clarke. My quotes were all about if you ask me could I do it, I have no doubt that I could. But it's a big commitment. There's grade cricket, there's state cricket, you have to go through that process and hopefully get selected.
"For me it's nothing that I'm even considering. I'm bowling as good as I possibly have for the last five or six years. At this stage right now if you ask me do I want to make a comeback? No. I'm concentrating on the Big Bash."
Warne also dismissed the idea that he could consider playing club or state cricket after the BBL, and said that his commentary duties would keep him busy. "At this stage with my calendar I've got the first Test of Australia vs India for ESPN in India [in February]," Warne said. "So at this stage there'll be no grade cricket."

NFS Carbon Full PC
-Canyon Duel
In addition, we can also meet with the police, either in race or free roam. And usually the police have bad intentions against us. Fortunately we are given points in a folder called the Pursuit Breaker. With this we can beat some police cars behind us.
For graphic factors, this game is quite superior to the game in his era. Each car uses a lot of polygons so it looks smooth. In addition the use of high texture and using shaders, so it seems far more real than without shaders. We can also see the reflection in the car or the road. In addition, when we often hit will cause damage to our car. This form of paint damage that beret or broken glass.
There are weather effects are quite convincing. At the time of rain, the road looks wet and reflect on our cars. In addition, the car also becomes easier to slip during the turn.
To factor physics, this game is very good. Each car has a different weight that blew during a collision or when flying through the air. Muscle cars tend to be heavier than the tuner cars. So that in case of collision, muscle car will be easier to return to the game.
The best thing in my opinion is the sound factor of this game. If we replace the car's engine, the resulting sound would be different. Effect when the car entered the tunnel was worked well. Besides the response time of the race by the crew and the police also realtime.
Educational value that can be obtained from this game
1. Learning tinkering with exotic cars from abroad.
2. If you are driving recklessly, police will be happy to justify the way you drive.
3. The value of cooperation with the crew member to win the game.
4. Appropriate decision-making for emergency situations (during the chase by the police).
The element of reality (reality in the game)
The reality of the facts
1. Model and performance of the car similar to the original.
2. If it rains, the car will skid more easily.
3. If you are driving on the grass, the car's speed to be not optimal.
4. If you upgrade parts of your car, the car's performance will increase.
5. The more often you hit another object, the car will look more destroyed.
The reality of the causal
1. If you are reckless driving (crashing cars or property on the side of the road), then the police will come to you.
2. If you challenge the crew of opponents, you can gain a higher reputation.
3. If you won a race, then the area becomes your power.
4. If you fail to win the challenge from the opponent, then that area will disappear from your power.
The reality of random events
1. Possible arrival of the police is not necessarily the arrival time and direction, but likely will be greater in areas that often you make to the race.
2. The possibility that there are cars on the road suddenly swerved to hinder the speed racers.
3. The possibility of rain.
The reality of physics
1. Hit properties on the road can reduce the rate of your vehicle.
2. The car is heavy (eg: Corvette or SLR McLaren), will have an advantage when a car crashed into a lighter (eg: Nissan Skyline or Mitsubishi Lancer).
Visual Reality
1. The existence of a reflection on your car.
2. Effects of damage that occurs in your car looks realistic (eg: beret on car paint and broken glass).
3. Effect of water drops on the car and wet roads during rain.
Reality Audio
1. Car engine sound different.
2. The response from the police and the crew member in realtime.
3. Resonance effects in the tunnel.

The locations of both Most Wantedand Carbon (Rockport and Palmont, respectively) are featured in the 2010 MMO game, Need for Speed: World. The PlayStation Portable, Nintendo DS and Game Boy Advance versions of the game are calledNeed for Speed Carbon: Own the City, set in a fictional city named Coast City with a significantly different storyline and also featuring different AI teammate abilities.

National Economic Headlines
Bad Credit Statistics for the United States
Millions of people in the United States have broken their debt promises over the past years. The number of loan defaulters is rising and alarming. Some of them have ended up into this situation after losing their jobs or taking more than what they can handle. The situation becomes worse if the defaults lack immediate financial relief as they are made to spend more on other things and live with a bad credit rating.
Bad Credit Statistics for the United States approximates that about 25% of Americans are now in the least creditworthy category. This category garners a rating of below 600 from FICO, a major arbiter of consumer credit. The percentage is quit larger as compared to only 15% before the recession in 2010. The statistics shows that only three out four Americans would be able to borrow money probably to make a major purchase. The government is however taking the necessary measures to make sure the number doesn't rise. For instance, strict measures have been imposed on the easy credit to encourage Americans earn to maintain a lifestyle instead of borrowing money.
Get a Loan at Go Credit Financial
Money problems affect most of us and in those uncertain times everyone needs a little help putting together a decent financial package to get things running normal again.

· Debt consolidation loans

· Car loans
You can qualify for a car loan with a credit score below 700 but you will have to meet a number of additional qualifications first. The down payment you put up for the car will depend on the car's value, and of course your credit. Keep in mind a larger down payment means low monthly payments.
At Go Credit Financial they try to get everyone the financial assistance they need to get their life back on track and that's why they have a variety of programs to cater for different needs.

How to Get Your Credit Started
It is likely that your credit history is a blank slate if you have never had a loan or credit. Your credit history is very important because it is used by lenders and creditors to decide whether to extend a loan or give you a credit card. But do you know how to get your credit started? Below are some tips that you may utilize.
Get a secured credit card- It provides assurance to your creditor that you will repay your debt. Its limit is usually the deposited security. You borrow money from the creditor every time you purchase something and you are obligated to repay the debt. Your credit score will be affected negatively or positively depending on how you use the card.
Charge for what you can afford to pay- Building credit should be demonstrated by your ability to pay your debts. Make sure you purchase items that you can afford to pay every month because your goal is to prove that you can manage debts.
Pay every month- It will help you maintain a good credit score since even a single late payment can damage your credit score.
Avoid numerous credit accounts- Each additional account is likely to take a small hit on your credit score. One credit card is enough to prove that you can keep the balance low and pay it on time every month.
Check your progress- This is usually after six months, and you can apply for unsecured credit card if you have a good credit score.
The Affects of Credit Card Use on U.S. Consumer Credit
U.S. consumer credit invariably surges in direct relation to the use of credit cards. As more companies are turning to mobile payment stations and cashless pay programs, consumer debt also increases. Surges such as these are often reflective almost entirely of revolving credit, which is a measurement of credit card use and the associated debt. Non-revolving credit is primarily comprised of car loans and student loans that are government-financed and in recent years, non-revolving debt has been responsible for the most significant surges in U.S. consumer credit, in spite of marked increases in mobile pay stations and the declining use of cash.
The benefits of having these increases be representative of non-revolving debt are manifold. This debt tends to be more manageable for most people and there is a sincere, general desire to pay it back down. It also shows, however, that many households are reticent to take on more credit card debt and that people are engaging in more cautious form of spending. Ultimately, people are buying more of what they need and less of what they want.

There are some companies which are known to allow immigrants access financing opportunities. They can be the best option for you to access finance but you need to choose carefully.
For you to land on the best company you need to take your time and take into consideration different factors before you approach the company. For instance, is the project in which you will like to invest your money viable? In case the project is viable, then you need to consider the interest rate at which you will be offered the loan. If possible go for a company that will offer you the best rates.

My mom is currently using an AMD Phenom 2 X6, 8 GB DDR2 ram, a 7200RPM HDD, and is constantly complaining that it just isn't fast/responsive enough for her. She's running Win7 x64, and mainly just uses the machine for Outlook, the occasional Word/Excel doc, watching youtube videos in firefox, and GoToMeeting/Webex webinars. She's wired in to a 100Mb LAN.
I'd like to build her a small form factor computer with either an Ivy Bridge or Haswell CPU in the 3GHz range, 8-16GB of the fastest DDR3 I can stuff into it, a decently sized SSD, a DVD-drive, and maybe a USB3 port or two. I'd love for it to have a DVI output, so I don't have to get an adapter, or buy her a new LCD monitor. She'd use the onboard video and audio, and doesn't need onboard WiFi.
I've looked around NewEgg, and found a few devices, but nothing really contains everything I'll need, or they have an embedded APU/Atom/i3 at really low clock speeds.
Any ideas, or should I bite the bullet and buy a larger Shuttle enclosure, and start buying parts? I'm getting tired of hearing her complain about how it's "grinding" (HDD access noise) and watching her click her mouse like a madwoman, because it doesn't instantly respond to her every whim.
She's 70 years old, so whatever would be as low maintenance, and cooling issue free as possible would be wunderbar.
Thanks in advance!

2Steel Girls + Gracia Harrison Jump on the 'Sin Wagon' to Battle on 'The Voice'
Team Blake is up once again on 'The Voice,' and after the fierce battle between De'Borah and Nelly's Echo, we'd hate to have to be the ones who follow 'em, but someone has to do it!
The next battle pairing is a mother-daughter duo named 2Steel Girls (Allison and Krystal respectively) and the 18-year-old yodeler Gracia Harrison, who impressed the coaches with her serious vocal abilities. (Can you yodel? Didn't think so). And surprise, surprise, leave it to Blake Shelton to opt for the country song 'Sin Wagon' by Dixie Chicks.
The mother half of 2Steel Girls had a harder time transitioning to the country aspect of the song, as it's a song that takes a lot of skill, but her daughter was quick to catch on, leaving her to strive for perfection to nail the song. It's just a whole lot of blonde honky tonk going on, that it's almost difficult to decipher who's actually singing at any given point.
Thankfully, we have the visual of the battle rounds to help us with that troubling problem. 2Steel Girls rocked black ensembles and Harrison donned a light pink frock, and the tension between the two (technically three) women was playfully toyed with as Krystal and Gracia made dagger-eyes at each other throughout the entire song.
It was an evenly matched performance, with powerful singers, and although Harrison was more playful with the song and general entertainment of the performance, 2Steel Girls gave the better performance.
Shelton, though, didn't agree, and opted for Harrison's attitude and playfulness versus vocals.

I suppose this can be concidered two ways,
Slippery is coming to town, Slippery is coming to town.
Yes Turdleggs it's true I'm coming back, however this time it will be for a while longer...
So it's either good news or or for some bad...but I'll be back
schedule so far is Oct 31 through Nov 7. (subject to change)
as a novelty I have attached the pole for all you city cacher...have fun
Maybe this time I will make it out to a slippery event...
sly grins...make that a slippery when wet event and it's a deal...
But I hope someone (everyone) invites PBD out too...cause I'd really like to meet him....
A whole week! That should leave some time for wining, dining and cachine. My one-hour slippery-fix last trip just didnt cut it :)
So What are the consequences of this longer term event taking place?
1. Do we lock up the caches and travel bugs? Is Gnorman's Diamond mine safe?
2. Is it contagious?
3. Is there any special ceremonies involving chickens, candles and guacamoli dip?
4. What is appropriate dress? GPS casual or formal?
1. no need to lock up anything (including your mothers and daughters.
2. Absolutely...I have this uncanny need to share
3. Lets talk about this, because I live so far north and have been here for so long I'm game for whatever cranks you southerners. However I must warn you, it does take a lot longer to wind me down once wound up. However I must ask one favor...substitute the dip for Ranch dressing
4. Birthday suit, suit an tie, mini skirt (hopefully), sneakers, trench coat, turdle shells whatever.

Scott Walker - Bish Bosch
so, have people heard it yet?
what do people think of it?
i saw it given a 6/10 by CMG. it's definitely not that low, but i'm not sure its the AOTY contender i thought it would be. i just don't know how to approach it yet.
haven't summoned the courage yet
maybe soon
Yes, had it a while.
Review coming on DiS early next week. That CMG score isn't far off the money...
I'd want to score it high
Just because its peaks - and there's a fair few of them - are absolutely incredible and I doubt I'll ever tire of them.
But definite stretches of it are too slight, and it seems wrong to say it's amazing when in reality only half is. Still, acceptable filler among flashes of genuine individual genius is fine in my book.
i am genuinely confused as to how somebody can sit through it
it's not in any way enjoyabledomgourlay this'd this
I have no problem
I can listen to Tilt and The Drift quite easily and I imagine it will be the same with this album eventually. Once you've listened to them dozens and dozens of times they do get a lot easier! And, yes, I do enjoy them very much.
because sometimes art is challenging
and makes you feel uncomfortable and isn't always light entertainment. I list to Drift all the time. I find it mesmerizing, intense and brilliant. I've heard two songs from the new one and they sounded amazing.
- sunstroke_house, ThirstyDog, and Icarus-Smicarus this'd this
Correct, though to be fair
your initial comment was pretty inane.LdnMetropolitanElite this'd this
yeah what i said would have been way less inane
if i wrote a few paragraphs detailing why i was bored by it
It's hard to judge the stuff he does these days wihtout listening to it loads first
especially this album because there's just so much packed into it, lyrically and musically. My impressions at the moment are it's weaker then The Drift and definitely Tilt, which is one of the greatest albums ever. It's a lot more.....theatrical, albeit not quite Starlight Express. I think I preferred it when the humour was more deadpan and the music a little more restrained. That said, there's some stunning parts on it. And Epizootics! has to be the best song of the year. It just sounds so good.
I've only heard Epizootics
and it's fucking awesome. Musically it could easily have come off Tom Waits' Real Gone (no surprise given that Scott has spoken of his admiration for Tom in the past) and hearing Scott's voice singing "Take that in the bollocks for a start" is possibly my musical moment of 2012.
Is there a stream to the whole album somewhere?
first track is amazing
rest didn't make too much impression on one listen
here's a nice little interview i did with Scott's percussionist/meat-puncher Alasdair Malloy
for a wee insight into the recording process;
turns out it was another site
thought it was weird, since CMG have dropped ratings
also I really fucking hope it's better than a 6/10
this is really good
i kept trying to get into the drift and getting bored
were you lying naked face down
on your bathroom floor on codeine at 4am?
When people say something like this
I'm interested what other stuff they listen to. your profile doesn't say. Do you listen things which are also 'difficult'? Or not? Though I suppose what can be 'difficult' to one person is not to another. This is not a criticism, by the way. Just interested whether it's not the sort of thing you might normally go for or whether there's something particular about Mr Walker and/or his music you don't like.
I listen to plenty of music that one may consider 'difficult'
But it certainly doesn't make up the majority of my listening habits. I really have to be in the mood for something like this. If I'm having a bit of an aggravating day then I usually find it a bit too much.
You've seen the light!
Or should that be the dark?
Ok so this is great
So many good lines. Pretty aggressive sounding. Will be listening much in the next wee while to see where it figures in my top-10.
Haven't heard this yet...
...but Scott Walker's probably the only person making challenging, obtuse and abrasive music that I can actually bare listening to. He's wonderful.
Farmer in the City is, quite simply, one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard.
Farmer In The City is one of the greatest songs ever
from one of the greatest albums ever. I love the way that, in many ways, it sounds quite ridiculous, but is still so austere and beautiful. It made me realise that something can be absurd and sublime and that actually that CAN work and be a good thing.
the guardian have given it 2/5
around a quarter of the review is just quotes from the album's mini-site.
I think that was the Observer review....or a second review
I'm sure that Petridis gave it 4/5 last week.
surprising how much fun this album is
just expected bleak, dark, but it's pretty rockin' in places
DiS Review;
agree? DiSagree? don't care?
To be fair
I don't really think Dom was the right person to review it. Not because he didn't like it so much as it's clearly so outside his comfort zone he simply doesn't know what to think of it much less how to write about it, and is clearly disinclined to wade into the quagmire of references throughout. Not one of his finest reviews, all told.Oissin_, Binary_Star, and stanstubbs this'd this
After spending 2 weeks with it I'm inclined to agree
Hopefully me and 'Bish Bosch' will never meet again!
See, I'm with you in that
I very much adore Scott's late 60s work - Scotts 1-4 are masterpieces of baroque symphonic pop; but I also really enjoy his modern output. Tilt was something of a revelation when I heard it, 'Farmer in the City' being one of the most atmospheric, disturbing yet utterly moving songs I've ever heard.
Bish Bosch is jarring and unearthly from minute one and is largely bereft of any classical sense of beauty; it seems to be an album about appreciating ugliness - melodically, aesthetically and morally. I find it vertiginous to listen to; I feel waves of nausea like I'm at a great height, staring down into a pit of waste struggling with a compulsion to step off my perch and fall in. I'm an illustrator with a deep rooted desire to contrast or blend extremes like beauty and decay, love and ugliness. What I feel Walker has done on Bish Bosch is create the sound of sublime sickness.Oissin_ this'd this
It's certainly one of the most divisive records I've encountered in recent years
People either seem to really love it or simply not get it in the slightest. Sadly I'm with the latter!
You say in the review that you own 3 Whitehouse albums
I find this interesting, as I'd say Whitehouse are much more "challenging", and that they sound much more like "a pneumatic drill ripping through concrete" than Bish Bosch does.
I had a recount earlier in the week and it's actually 4
The Hospitals I own 3, but anyway...
Dom, you seem like a guy who was disturbed and aggravated by the album
and in turn was disturbed and aggravated by being disturbed and aggravated!
I'm surprised
nobody has yet pointed out that Bish Bosch rhymes with Piss Toshdomgourlay this'd this
Erm......except it doesn't
Pish Tosh you probably should have said. BUT NOW IT'S TOO LATE!whynot this'd this

FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. – The Coker men's tennis team suffered a tough 6-3 loss to Methodist University on Wednesday in men's collegiate tennis. The Cobras started the match winning two of the three doubles matches, with the one doubles loss coming at No. 1 doubles. Coker lost 9-8 in a tie-breaker.
Then in singles play the matches were forced to be settled by tie-breakers due to lack of daylight. James Corfield (Auckland, New Zealand) picked up the Cobras lone win in singles play with a 7-5, 6-2 win at No. 2 singles.
Coker will head back to the courts on Thursday at Newberry College where they will look to great their first win of the season. The men will be joined by the Cobra women for the 2:00 p.m. dual match.

Of all the festivities that make up Hollywood's annual awards season, the SAG Awards is the one place where actors appear the most comfortable, relaxing with other members of their artistic community and celebrating the fact that they perform for a living.
But navigating the labyrinth backstage at the Shrine Auditorium isn't exactly easy or fun. Built in the Moorish Revival style in 1926, the Shrine possesses an infinite number of nooks and crannies, where a different press or photo opportunity pops up at every turn.
When stars win an award and emerge into the freezing netherworld of backstage, they are immediately whisked past an LG phone display and into the general photo room, where a wall of photographers shout their names and flashes erupt in blinding, rapid-fire succession. They emerge blinking into an autograph station, where they are asked to sign SAG posters and later giant bottles of Taittinger Champagne.
SAG 2013: Winners | Show highlights | Complete list | Red carpet
From there they are ushered into a curtained TBS photo gallery booth and then into a secretive People magazine booth for interviews. After that they head to a general media room, where dozens of reporters pepper them with questions. They still have to enter three more photo booths (including one manned by the L.A. Times) before they're done and free to rejoin their friends in the main auditorium.

Motherhood demands risk, personal danger and courage. When Mary said yes to life, to becoming the mother of God, she risked everything. As a young, unwed mother in a patriarchal society, she risked losing her family, her place in the community and thus her means of survival. Joseph's first instinct to the news of her pregnancy was to break with her, until angels interceded and the Holy Family was begun.
As we celebrate the month of Mary and Mother's Day, motherhood is still a risky business. For the women of Eastern Congo, where atrocities against women are routinely committed, motherhood requires great courage. In the past 10 years 5.4 million people have died from the war and violence in the Democratic Republic of Congo; 47 percent of these are children. In a huge country, the size of the United States east of the Mississippi, rebel groups supported by foreigners fight with each other and the government, largely over the D.R.C.'s rich natural resources.
"Conflict coltan" mines in Eastern Congo are particular targets, as coltan is used in our cell phones, laptops and computer chips. Rwanda's génocidères remain in Eastern Congo, where they and others continue their brutality. The largely collapsed D.R.C. is at best unable to protect people; at worst the untrained and unpaid troops and police themselves prey on the people.
Women and children suffer most. Alan Goss, the U.N. special representative to the D.R.C., laments that the rates of infant and maternal mortality in Congo are among the worst in the world. In Eastern Congo, with its coltan mines and foreign fighters, violence continues long after peace accords have been signed.
Women are routinely raped and mutilated as an instrument of war, as documented by the U.N. special rapporteur on violence against women, Ms. Yakin Erturk. She notes, "The scale and brutality of the atrocities amount to war crimes and crimes against humanity." Girls as young as 5 and grandmothers as old as 80 are not immune to gang rapes, some of them committed with tree limbs, guns or machetes. Mothers are raped while their husbands and children are tied to trees and forced to watch. In many cases the victims are shunned, blamed for the attacks on them, because the rapes humiliate the family, or because they are infected by the attacks with H.I.V./AIDS and other diseases, or because many are impregnated with the children of these criminals and enemies.
Although the D.R.C. made rape and violence against women illegal in 2006, few perpetrators are ever arrested or prosecuted. The filmmaker Lisa Jackson shows in "The Greatest Silence," a chilling recent HBO documentary, the impunity of these rapists, who brag on camera of their crimes.
What do women do in the midst of such horrible suffering? They try to raise their children and hold their families together, against all odds. They see these offspring of rape not as children of the enemy, but as children of God.
Archbishop Francois-Xavier Maroy grew up in these areas and now presides there. His three predecessors were murdered. He was recently in the United States to attend Catholic Peacebuilding Network conferences, and to urge action by the U.S. government, in particular by Senators Sam Brownback and Joseph Biden and Congressman Barney Frank, who are promoting legislation on these issues. "All of humanity are attacked when women are attacked," he said, and continued: "Women are sacred, the mothers of life, the pillars of the family, she that educates society through her children. These are attacks against the whole human family, aimed at the extermination of the Congolese people of the east."
He explained that with the collapse of the state almost all social services are provided by the church, from trauma healing to health care. But this is difficult to do, and resources are scarce. For women with more severe injuries, there is only one doctor able to treat them, Dr. Mukwege of the Panzi Hospital in Bukavu. According to the archbishop:
We work on reintegration of the women back into families and societies, and in the reintegration of their children. The problem is that after rape they are marginalized by their own family members, evicted and their household goods stolen as well, so the church tries to give other means to establish lives and become useful again. We also work with the children who are born of these rapes, as they are innocent victims too.
What we would ask the American church is first, for your prayers. Prayer is the strongest force, and can change hearts of stone to hearts of flesh. Second, we ask American Catholics to tell the U.S. government, which is the first power of the world, to help us bring peace back to Congo, and to work to return the Rwandan fighters back to Rwanda. We ask that the U.S. government be a force for reconstruction, not destruction. And third, we ask for financial assistance as well.
Despite the suffering of the people to whom Archbishop Maroy ministers every day, he maintains a positive outlook and gentle smile. "As a church, we must always keep hope and never be discouraged." This May, let us pray together with the people of Congo, "Deliver us Lord from every evil, and grant us peace in our day."

The above output shows that boot order is not set ("HVM-boot-params (MRW)" is blank) for the VM. Now, execute following command to set boot sequence of the VM
Verify the boot order now.
HVM-boot-policy ( RW): BIOS order
HVM-boot-params (MRW): order: dc

Thats it!!! You should able to start the VM and boot it from ISO you have mounted.
