The CT525-328-2ac-1n wireless traffic generator is an excellent choice for testing Access Points and other WiFi networks. The CT525-328-2ac-1n uses a modified Wireless driver for WiFi NICs based on the Qualcomm/Atheros chipset. The ath9k (a/b/g/n) chipset NICs can support up to 200 stations per radio. The ath10k (a/b/g/n/ac) chipset NICs can support up to 64 stations per radio. Each of the Virtual Stations has its own IP address, IP port space, MAC address and routing table. The Virtual Stations can be assigned to communicate to a particular Access Point, use a particular SSID, and Open or WPA/WPA2 authentication assigned. More advanced 802.1X authentication is also included. Each radio can be configured independently of the other. Transmit power and channel/frequency is configured on a per-radio basis. Most other settings are configurable per virtual station.
There are two a/b/g/n/AC and one a/b/g/n WiFi radios per CT525-328-2ac-1n and multiple LANforge systems can be clustered together for even more realistic radio interference patterns and increased traffic generation capability.
All virtual stations on the same radio must be on the same frequency, but as long as the protocol supports that frequency, the multiple protocols can be used concurrently. For instance, if the radio is configured for a 2.4Ghz channel, the stations can be /b, /g, /n, or /ac. If the radio is on a 5Ghz channel, the stations can be /a, /n or /ac. The bandwidth can be configured for all protocols. For 802.11n and 802.11AC, configuring the MCS rates also determines the number of spatial streams (1x1, 2x2, 3x3, 4x4, etc.).
The Virtual Stations may be configured with all of the virtual interfaces on the same subnet, or different subnets, depending on the testing requirements. When used with something like VoIP, it allows all of the VoIP calls to use the standard IP ports (with one call per virtual interface).
The CT525-328-2ac-1n is a 2U rackmount system. It has 9 antennas. It will fit into a standard rackmount cabinet. No additional hardware or software is required, but it is suggested that you manage the system using the LANforge GUI on a separate machine. The CT525-328-2ac-1n can also be managed over a serial console in text mode or through a directly connected monitor, mouse and keyboard.
Performance exceeds 900Mbps per 802.11AC radio:

Printex USA
Pad printers who use a film-based prepress workflow know that making a high-quality cliche is a multi-step undertaking that requires them to effectively manage a host of variables, equipment, and chemicals. Care must be taken when making a film positive, exposing the cliche, and developing the cliche's imaging area. Any inconsistency can lead to problems in production or yield dissatisfactory images.
Printex developed its G2-DTP laser plate-etching system, in partnership with Epilog Laser, to remove the roadblocks to quality commonly found in film-based cliche-making for pad printing. The system ensures consistent creation of high-quality cliches without the need for lots of equipment and chemicals and enables pad printers to produce cliches on-demand for both short-run and high-output jobs. It is based on Epilog's Mini 24, a CO2 laser system and is designed for use with laser-engravable polymer plates.
According to Printex, the G2-DPT supports halftone-screen imaging that rivals conventional pad-printing plates and can deliver bold text and graphics from 3-point light text and 1/3-point lines to large solid areas. The system can hold plates up to 24 x 12 in. (610 x 305 mm) in size, and it can engrave at resolutions from 75-1200 dpi. Printex says time from computer to press-ready can be from as little as 30 seconds to 15 minutes and notes that laser-engraved polymer cliches are flat, doctor-clean, and compatible with open-well and closed-cup pad-printing machines.

When you want to change the values for
y, or
z, you have to call the
move method; and you will have a new
Point3D instance. Notice that the
move method doesn't use a
return statement to indicate that the result of the
new Point3D(x + dx, y + dy, z + dz) expression must be returned. In Scala, the last expression executed in a method is always a
return statement; so you don't have to include the
return statement yourself. Another way of writing the
move method with code similar to what you're used to seeing in C# is:
def move(dx: Double, dy: Double, dz: Double) : Point3D = { return new Point3D(x + dx, y + dy, z + dz); }
To create an instance of the
Point3D class, enter the following into the Scala
val immutablePoint3D = new Point3D(10, 20, 5)
The Scala
Console will display a line similar to the following one with the result of evaluating the expression: a new instance of the
Point3D class named
immutablePoint3D, and a unique internal identifier that will be different in your Scala console (
[email protected]):
immutablePoint3D: Point3D = [email protected]
You can access the three public fields to check the values for
y and
z. Just enter the following expressions after the
scala> prompt and the Scala console will provide the results (Figure 4).
Figure 4: The Scala
Console displaying the results of evaluating the different expressions with the instances of
Notice that each time you enter an expression and you don't assign the result to a variable, the Scala
Console creates a new variable that you will be able to access later. In this case,
res1, and
res2 are variables of type
Double containing the values of the three expressions.
scala> immutablePoint3D.x res0: Double = 10.0 scala> immutablePoint3D.y res1: Double = 20.0 scala> immutablePoint3D.z res2: Double = 5.0
Because the three fields were defined with the
val keyword, they are immutable. Now, enter the following expressions after the
scala> prompt to call the
move method and check the values for
y, and
z for the new
Point3D instance returned by the method. The Scala console will provide the results:
scala> val movedPoint3D = immutablePoint3D.move(5, 5, 5) movedPoint3D: Point3D = [email protected] scala> movedPoint3D.x res3: Double = 15.0 scala> movedPoint3D.y res4: Double = 25.0 scala> movedPoint3D.z res5: Double = 10.0
Operators as Methods
In Scala, operators are methods like any other methods that you can define for either a class or a trait. The trick is that Scala allows you to use symbols such as +, *, and & as method names. The following lines define a new version of the
Point3D class. After you enter them, the
Console will display "
defined class Point3D," indicating that the class is ready to be used in new expressions.
class Point3D(val x: Double, val y: Double, val z: Double) { def move(dx: Double, dy: Double, dz: Double) : Point3D = new Point3D(x + dx, y + dy, z + dz) def +(dx: Double, dy: Double, dz: Double) : Point3D = move(dx, dy, dz) def -(dx: Double, dy: Double, dz: Double) : Point3D = move(-dx, -dy, -dz) def dx(delta: Double) : Point3D = move(delta, 0, 0) def dy(delta: Double) : Point3D = move(0, delta, 0) def dz(delta: Double) : Point3D = move(0, 0, delta) }
The new version of the
Point3D class adds the following methods to the previous version. Each method returns a new
Point3D instance containing the new values for the
y and
z fields:
+: Increases the values of
zwith the received parameters.
-: Reduces the values of
zwith the received parameters.
dx: Increases the value of
xwith the received parameter.
dy: Increases the value of
ywith the received parameter.
dz: Increases the value of
zwith the received parameter.
Now, enter the following expression in the Scala
Console to create a new immutable reference to an instance of the new version of the
Point3D class:
val immutablePoint3D = new Point3D(10, 20, 5)
Because the new
Point3D class defined a method named
+, you can call it with the following line and the code will have the same effect as calling the
move method:
val movedPoint3D = immutablePoint3D.+(5, 5, 5)
The good news is that you can call the method named
+ without using the dot (
.), as shown in the next lines:
val movedPoint3D = immutablePoint3D + (5, 5, 5) (movedPoint3D.x, movedPoint3D.y, movedPoint3D.z)
This way, the method named
+ works as the
+ operator does in other languages. The same mechanism applies to the method named
-. The following lines call the method named
- without using the dot (
val movedPoint3D = immutablePoint3D - (3, 3, 3) (movedPoint3D.x, movedPoint3D.y, movedPoint3D.z)
The following lines create a new instance of
Point3D named
myPoint and then call three methods:
dy, and
dz. In this case, the code doesn't use parentheses to enclose the single parameter required for each method. It's easy to read and understand code that increases
x 1 point, then, increases
y 2 points, and finally increases
z 3 points:
scala> val myPoint = new Point3D(10, 10, 10) myPoint: Point3D = [email protected] scala> val myPoint2 = myPoint dx 1 dy 2 dz 3 myPoint2: Point3D = [email protected] scala> (myPoint2.x, myPoint2.y, myPoint2.z) res5: (Double, Double, Double) = (11.0,12.0,13.0)
The following two lines produce exactly the same result in Scala. The second line is similar to the code you'd use in C#:
val myPoint2 = myPoint dx 1 dy 2 dz 3 val myPoint2 = myPoint.dx(1).dy(2).dz(3)
In the next article, I'll dive deep on the way you can mix in many traits. I'll also explain some important differences between Scala and C#, such as pattern matching and
if expressions.

Over the last several months, the Winston-Salem Police Department has seen an increase in copper metal thefts from air conditioning units. Please know that the Winston-Salem Police Department takes these cases seriously and currently the detectives of the Criminal Investigation Division are investigating these cases to the fullest extent possible.
With most every home having an air conditioning unit we rarely think of how or should we protect this investment. The answer to that is simple; protect it as you would anything else. Those who are committing these crimes are targeting unit that is isolated by vegetation and located on the rear of the home away from the street allowing concealment to work and disassemble the unit. They are also targeting units when people are not at home or rental property is vacant.
Several products can be purchased to protect against this type of crime. Some of those products include alarm sensors installed by professionals designed to activate when the unit is disconnected or moved. Additionally many companies are making steel mesh cages that go over the unit to prevent it from being opened or moved. Some more less expensive options would be to keep bushes and gardens at a minimum around these units. Keep the area around the unit well lit and increase visibility. For those who have rental property, ask neighbors to keep an eye on the property and ask them to call and report anything out of the ordinary. As with any suspicious activity or unusual occurrence, please take a few minutes and report it to the police. Keep in mind that those committing these crimes are likely creating a lot of noise to move and disassemble the unit.
In addition to securing you AC unit also remember to secure the crawl space to your home. Detectives have investigated cases where criminals have crawled under homes and removed copper pipes causing unnoticeable and costly damage.
Metal Thefts - A Nationwide Epidemic [pdf/1.62mb/26p]
The Winston-Salem Police Department would like to remind you to use caution when answering the door. In the past, we have investigated home burglaries where someone poses as a service worker or salesperson. These criminals are great communicators and can easily distract you while their partner commits the theft. Below are a few things to remember when someone knocks at your door:
For more crime prevention information, please visit the crime prevention section of our web site, by e-mail at email@example.com, or by calling the Crime Prevention Unit at (336) 773-7835.
Recently, the Winston Salem Police Department has seen an increase in daytime house break-ins. The suspects are ringing doorbells or knocking to see if anyone will answer the door. If no one answers the door, the suspect will breach the front or back door. If someone does open the door, the suspect will make up a story saying their vehicle has broken down, they lost their dog, they're looking for work, etc. We would like to remind you to never open your door for someone that you do not know. It is suggested to acknowledge the person's presence at the door by saying, "go away," "I'm calling the police," etc. When you look outside to identify the subject at the door, get a good description: height, weight, age, clothing description, mode of travel (on foot or in a vehicle). Be as specific as possible, did the jacket have a different color liner, was there fur around the hood? Please report these incidents to the police as soon as possible.

|My main Ancestor Wall
There are a few things you might want to do if you are going to have an Ancestor Wall. First you need to choose a photo that is in focus. It doesn't matter how small the photo is, it's the sharpness of the image that counts.
You should choose a photo that suits your frame. You don't want a family group photo in a tiny frame. Likewise you don't want Great grandma's head and shoulders photo in a large one.
After you choose your frame and your photo you need to pick a suitable mat. That's a personal choice but you should think about colour - you want the mat to go with the frame and the photo, you don't want it to clash. You should also think about the size of the mat, the bit you're going to see around the photograph. If you make it too large, it will overpower the photo. If it's too small it won't look balanced.
I had a frame chosen for a family photo of my dad and his siblings and parents in 1916. But none of the mats we looked at seemed just right. The frame was an unusual dull beige-gold. So we chose a cream mat and my husband stained it in blotches with a used tea bag. It looks great - very antique looking and it ties in the frame colour with the photo.
We love our living room. We have a cathedral ceiling so there is a lot of wall space to fill! All three walls are hung with ancestor photos and antique art. We even have an oil painting that my husband's grandmother painted but didn't like. So she nailed it to the wall of her barn! We rescued it, cleaned it, chose a frame to suit it and now it hangs in a place of honour. You can see it in my photo above - it's the bright oil painting with orange flowers hanging top left of the photo.
So be creative and pick what you like, not what someone else tells you is good. After all you are the one who has to live with your Ancestor Wall, so it has to please you. Our Ancestor Wall would not suit everyone. The way we choose to hang our pictures would not suit everyone. But it pleases us and that's what's important. Every morning when I go through the living room to get to the kitchen I feel a warm glow as I pass the photo of my father, my grandmother and other relatives. The pictures bring me peace and pleasure.

I read in the paper that health insurers will be giving back more than a billion dollars to their customers this year. Don't get me wrong – I'm glad to get even a few bucks back, but why are they doing that? I am also wondering how much I might get back.
Counting, but no chickens yet
Dear Counting but no chickens yet,
You might be wise to stop counting, if you live in Maine. No rebates are expected for Maine health insurance buyers. But, for future years, let's look at why the $541 million in rebates is coming back to people nationwide.
Parts of federal health reform – known as the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act – have been put into action. One requires health insurers to spend a certain percentage of their customer's dollars (called "premiums") on medical services and quality improvements.
For large group plans, the insurer is required to spend at least 85 percent of premium dollars on health care and quality improvement. For small group plans and non-group plans (also called "individual" plans), the insurer must spend at least 80 percent. Insurers have to give a rebate to customers, if their percentage spent on medical care/quality projects is too low. The rebate, essentially, forces the insurer to follow the rule.
According to the Kaiser Family Foundation, rebates will go to an estimated 31% of consumers in the individual market. More than one-quarter (28%) of the small group market and 19% of the large group market is projected to receive rebates. The average rebate for an individual customer will be $127, ranging from a high in Alaska ($305) to a low in Vermont ($1).
Naturally, it would be better to not have a rebate and simply pay the insurer the right amount the first time. Insurers will undoubtedly strive to set prices as close to accurate as possible, so that they do not have the hassle of sending out rebates. So this may be a one-time event, as insurers become used to the new law.

|High School:
2011-12 (SENIOR): Kevin Murphy became just the 16th player in OVC history
to score 2,000 career points. He finished season with 2,019 career
points (14th in OVC history), logging four 30+ point efforts, 11
20+ point efforts, and led the team in scoring 20 games. He
finished the year ranked. No. 4 in the OVC in 3FG% with an accuracy
of .416 from downtown, and No. 3 in minutes played with 34.5
minutes per game. Nationally, he finished the season ranked No. 10
in scoring, while his 20.6 points per game led the OVC. He now
holds the No. 2 spot on the school's all-time scoring list, and
became Tech's all-time leader in games played in the Ohio Valley
Conference tournament quarterfinals. A member of the 2011-12 OVC

Hubble ACS Images of Virgo Cluster Galaxies: NGC 4660, NGC 4458, IC 3506, and VCC 1993
These images taken by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope show four members of the Virgo cluster of galaxies, the nearest large galaxy cluster to Earth.
They are part of a survey of globular star clusters in 100 of Virgo's galaxies. Globular clusters, dense bunches of hundreds of thousands of stars, have some of the oldest surviving stars in the universe. Most of the star clusters in the Virgo survey are older than 5 billion years.
The galaxy at top, left, NGC 4660, contains 205 globular clusters. The galaxy at top, right, NGC 4458, has 72. Both galaxies possess a typical number of globular clusters for their size and brightness.
IC 3506, at bottom, left, is a dwarf galaxy near Virgo's central hub that contains 31 globular clusters. By contrast, the dwarf galaxy VCC 1993, at bottom, right, has no clusters and resides in Virgo's outskirts.
The Hubble study found evidence that globular clusters are more likely to form in dense areas, where star birth occurs at a rapid rate, instead of uniformly from galaxy to galaxy. Dwarf galaxy IC 3506, for example, resides near Virgo's dense center and has four times as many clusters for its size and brightness as NGC 4660 and NGC 4458.
Hubble's "eye" is so sharp that it was able to pick out the fuzzy globular clusters, which, at that distance, look like individual stars bunched up around the galaxies, instead of groupings of stars.
Comprised of over 2,000 galaxies, the Virgo cluster is located about 54 million light-years away.

One of the most exciting features in SQL Server 2012 is the introduction of the Tabular Model. The Tabular model along with the multidimensional model comprise the Business Intelligence Symantec Model (BISM).
To be honest when the Tabular Model and the BISM where introduced along with DAX I was more than a little skeptical. It seemed like yet another addition to the already complex Microsoft BI stack. It was presented as 'individual' or 'Group' BI that allowed users to quickly and easily develop their own models. But didn't scale because it had to fit into memory and could not handle complex requirements like Parent-Child relationships financial calculations.
However, after playing around with it for a little and talking some of the leaders in that space I have completely changed my mind. I will address my initial concerns in a general manner below:
1. Scalability – While it true that the Tabular Model is an in-memory database system. The memory limitation can be overcome by using the DirectQuery query mode (or one of the "hybrid mode") which passes the query to the SQL Database Engine. When combined with Columnstore indexes you can build BI solutions that scale to the enterprise level.
2. Complexity – Although DAX has not reached the level sophistication as MDX to able to handle complex requirements, the gap is closing and it is closing fast! Here are some good examples:
In summary I am now convinced that Tabular and DAX are not going to complicate MS BI but simplify and allow me to more quickly and on a more iterative basis deliver solutions to my clients. I am excited about the future.
Here are some of the best resources that I have found:
Cathy Dumas BLOG – great info.
SQLBI: Marco and Alberto have tons of great DAX information.
DAX Editor: The DAX Editor for SQL Server an extension to Visual Studio 2010 that implements a language service for the DAX language. The DAX language is the expression language used for SQL Server Analysis Services tabular models. This extension can be used when editing DAX queries and also for writing DAX measures.
DAX in the BI Tabular Model Whitepaper and Samples: This whitepaper and sample workbook introduce Data Analysis Expressions (DAX), a formula expression language used to define calculations in PowerPivot for Excel® workbooks and Analysis Services tabular model projects authored in SQL Server Data Tools.

DAX Resource Center: This Wiki includes articles, whitepapers, videos, and samples published by both Microsoft as well as experts in the Business Intelligence community. Because this is a Wiki, you too can contribute. If you have some great information about DAX and how you use it in your organization, please share it!

John Gutekunst (pronounced GOOD-uh-kunst) enters his first season as an assistant coach with the North Carolina A&T football program. A veteran coach with 43 years of experience, Gutekunst will be responsible for coaching the Aggies' inside linebackers.
His most recent stop was at Columbia University, where he served as the defensive backs coach for the 2010 season. The previous season, Gutekunst was the special teams coach and defensive assistant at East Carolina under Skip Holtz. Gutekunst helped lead the Pirates to the Conference USA title in 2009 while coaching Dwayne Harris, the Conference USA Special Teams Player of the Year, and All-American punter Matt Dodge. Dodge was drafted by the New York Giants in the 2010 NFL Draft.
Gutekunst served on the Duke staff as a secondary coach in 2007 and has made previous stops at North Carolina (2004-06), South Carolina (1999-03), Rhode Island (1998), Rutgers (1994-95), South Carolina (1993), Wake Forest (1992), Minnesota (1984-91), Virginia Tech (1979-83) and Duke (1967-78).
Before re-joining the Blue Devil staff for his second stint in Durham, Gutekunst served three seasons at North Carolina, coaching the linebackers as a co-defensive coordinator in 2004 before switching to the tight ends for his final two years. He added the responsibilities of assistant head coach in 2006.
Prior to his stint at UNC, Gutekunst spent five seasons coaching the defensive secondary at South Carolina. In 2001, South Carolina's defense ranked second in the SEC as two defensive backs — Sheldon Brown and Andre Goodman — received all-league honors and were later selected in the 2002 NFL Draft. Gutekunst also coached All-SEC cornerback Dunta Robinson, who was chosen with the 10th overall selection by Houston in the 2004 NFL Draft. In 2000, the Gamecocks posted 20 interceptions while allowing a league-low five touchdown passes. Brown was named to the American Football Coaches Association (AFCA) All-America team while Gutekunst earned Assistant Coach of the Year accolades from the same organization.
Gutekunst spent one year at Rhode Island coaching the defensive backs and kickers and two seasons as the defensive coordinator at Rutgers. Prior to joining the Scarlet Knight staff, he did one-year stints at South Carolina and Wake Forest. Gutekunst also spent one season coaching the Tampa Bay Storm of the Arena Football League.
During the 1984-85 seasons, Gutekunst served as defensive coordinator and secondary coach under Lou Holtz at Minnesota before beginning a six-year tenure as the head coach of the Gophers. He also was the Gophers' head coach in a 20-13 triumph over Clemson in the 1985 Independence Bowl. In 1986, he led Minnesota to the Liberty Bowl in a season that was highlighted by a 20-17 upset victory over then second-ranked and previously unbeaten Michigan.
Prior to his time at Minnesota, Gutekunst was on the staff at Virginia Tech where he helped the Hokies to a five-year ledger of 36-20 from 1979-83. He joined the coaching profession following graduation and served on the Duke staff from 1967-78.
At Duke, Gutekunst lettered on the gridiron from 1963-65 under Hall of Fame head coach Bill Murray and served as team captain his senior season. He also earned three varsity letters on the baseball diamond from 1964-66.

Why do people do what they do? Do animals think and remember? How do people cope with prejudice and discrimination? What happens to our memories as we age? How does poverty impact infant attention and cognition? How do children learn about race and gender? How do individuals' personalities differ? How do people adjust and adapt to new cultures?
These are some of the questions engaging the faculty and students in the Psychology Department at Whitman College. Our department offers a wide range of courses and research laboratories designed to give students both theoretical and practical knowledge about the exciting discipline of psychology. We designed our comprehensive curriculum to achieve three types of learning: first, students acquire basic understanding of concepts, principles, theories, conventions, vocabulary, and the models of psychology; second, students practice and refine skills to perform rigorously and cogently in quantitative analysis, writing, speaking, theoretical integration, personal growth, application and group process; and third, students develop interdisciplinary perspectives and understanding of how psychology is similar to and different from other disciplines, particularly its closest neighbors - philosophy and biology.
Our program teaches psychology as a science, but we also teach psychology in its practical applications for improving human welfare. Our requirements include an introductory survey course, statistics and research methods courses, at least 1 course from each the 3 foundational areas of psychology (Clinical/Personality, Cognitive/Learning/Physiology, and Social/Developmental), a seminar, a senior capstone course, and an optional thesis. Many elective courses in psychology are also offered each semester.
An important aspect of our program is the senior year experience. All seniors must take the senior capstone course that examines the theoretical, historical, and ethical issues of central importance to the discipline, which situates their major in the context of the larger discipline. Seniors also have the option of completing a year-long original thesis. Seniors in our program experience a strong sense of community as they work on their theses and major exams.
Whitman's Psychology Department has well-equipped animal and human laboratory facilities for undergraduate teaching and research. Our comparative psychology lab allows students to investigate behavior and cognition in pigeons and rats. Human laboratory facilities include an infant development laboratory and a cognitive aging laboratory. In addition, there are multiple rooms available for studies involving human participants, testing, and other laboratory exercises.
Psychology majors in our department have published their research in numerous journals. In addition, our students have an enormously successful record of presenting their research at regional professional meetings, where their papers are accepted in a blind peer review process. Many of Whitman's psychology majors go on to graduate school and have reported that they appreciate the rigorous training that our program provided them, particularly the senior thesis experience.

"Return to Sender," much like my first story in IGMS, "To Know All Things That Are In The Earth," draws heavily on my experience growing up as a fundamentalist Christian who went on to embrace atheism. My emotional connection to the story comes from my sense of confusion on encountering the outside world and finding things to be not quite as black and white as I had been informed.
It's really tough to explain the degree to which I was raised apart from mainstream culture. For instance, when I got to college, one of the many odd jobs I took to help pay expenses was that of a theater projectionist, even though the church I'd been raised in had denounced movie theaters as cesspools of sin and corruption and forbade going to see even "G" rated films. My first year as a projectionist was kind of amusing: every movie I saw became my favorite movie. I had no filters by which to judge a film, and wound up loving some stuff that I now look back on as fairly awful. (One of the first movies I saw, for instance, was Romancing the Stone, which for a week was the best movie ever, until I saw whatever was shipped the following week. I watched parts of Stone it again a few years ago and was stunned by how boring and formulaic it was.)
Also, much like Crystal in the story, I had grown up without being exposed to rock and roll music to any significant degree. My first exposure to bands like Pink Floyd and the Rolling Stones, singing about sex and drugs, was genuine culture shock. Even though I was identifying myself as an atheist by my first year of college, I still cringed when I heard people using the f-word in songs, and wondered why these people weren't afraid of going to hell.
Finally, I vividly recall the first time I was around a group of fellow students who were drinking beer. Drinking may not be the word I'm looking for--inhaling might be more accurate. They would shake up the beer, then puncture the can with a key, to suck down the entire can in something like thirty seconds. Shockingly, I learned that my fundamentalist Sunday School teachers had been right: Alcohol turns people into monsters! After inhaling a six-pack in about five minutes, guys I normally enjoyed hanging out with turned into surly jerks with unfocused eyes and slurred speech, laughing loudly at their own jokes and crudely boasting of their sexual prowess to women who were equally inebriated. It would be a few more years before I witness alcohol consumed in a more responsible, even genteel fashion and come to see that it didn't have to lead to to such boorish behavior.
It's been close to thirty years since I last sat through a fundamentalist church service, complete with speaking in tongues and the casting out of devils. I've reached as stage in my life where I can look back and be grateful to have been raised isolated at least some small degree from mainstream culture. I think it's useful for any artist to be able to step back from the world that swirls around them and study it with an outsider's point of view. Of course, sometimes when you step outside your culture, you discover you can't get back in.
That, however, is a theme for a whole 'nuther story.

We know, folks, it's hard to believe the summer car show season is already drawing to a close.
Recently the Texas HeatWave series held its huge Austin event where hundreds of custom trucks and cars were on display. And you know these rides had to have some serious security. If not alarms then maybe firearms! I mean it's called the "HeatWave" Custom Truck and Car show for a reason, right?
If you didn't get your car souped up in time to enter this year's show, you better start preparing for future car shows! To make it big in the Lone Star State, you've gotta show off your wheels!
But let's not forget, the nicer the car the MORE SECURITY YOU WILL NEED! If you have a one-of-a-kind car, who wouldn't want to do anything they can to get their hands on it! Be smarter than the criminal and get yourself some car protection. Viper car alarms have been installed in all kinds of cars.
Want to see some footage from the Texas HeatWave Truck & Car show? Check it out below here:

Okay, so I know I've asked for advice before and it's never come to fruition, but this time it's nearly done, and I'm truly stumped.
A while ago I started making a scene reminiscent of this(http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=2356399), same sort of dragon, perched on a pillar of rock, but with a stormy. crashing sea beneath it, bombarding the rocks. I got as far as the dragon and rock before realizing I had no idea how to make some good-lookin' waves. I mean, I can browse on Brickshelf, MOCpages, and Flickr all day, but most pirate or sea-based castle MOCs are set upon relatively calm waters. (The afore-mentioned sites only turn up a limited amount of suitable results anyway.)
So I'm asking you what to do!
(If it helps, I recently obtained over 200 1x2 trans-clear plates from PAB)

VIDEO: Reggie Miller talks about the Pacers trading Danny Granger
MILWAUKEE – Once the shock subsided, the speculation began: If suddenly former Indiana Pacers forward Danny Granger works out a buyout from the Philadelphia team to which he was dealt at the NBA trade deadline Thursday, he conceivably could sign with the Miami Heat. Or the San Antonio Spurs. Or the Dallas Mavericks or some other playoff team.
If that happened -– particularly if he landed in Miami –- the Pacers in their championship quest this spring could find themselves staring right at Granger, their longtime leading scorer and face of the franchise with a new, sizable chip on his shoulder. Imagine Granger hitting a game- or series-clinching shot that spoils Indiana's marvelous season…
Gulp. The possibility is so ironic, so emotional, it's almost unthinkable. It would be like Ray Allen in Game 6 – only against the Celtics.
Know, though, that the Pacers' locker room is a gulp-free zone.
"We're competing for a championship," Pacers All-Star wing Paul George said. "Not a friendship."
George considers Granger exactly that, a friend and former mentor. He ascended to Granger's status and beyond while the veteran was waylaid by injuries for more than a year, and he hated to see him go in the deal for the 76ers' Evan Turner and Lavoy Allen. But friendships and relationships criss-cross this league in endless connections, via countless paths.
The chip that matters most to George, the one that could define his and the Pacers' season, is the big one that comes only in June. The line to that is straight and true.
Said George: "It's bigger than… Y'know, everything on the floor – I've got friends in the league and people I looked up to in the league – but when it comes to a ballgame, that's where [our business] is.
"I think Larry [Bird, Pacers president] made the best move for this team. We all wish Danny could be here. But Larry knows basketball and if that's the move Larry wanted to make, we're all behind him. … We understand we're 'all in.' "
People talk about chemistry and how tight the Pacers have been, circling their wagons first in an overlooked-and-underloved way that works so well for teams in flyover markets, then in the flatly stated goal of the postseason's No. 1 seed for homecourt advantage. They've grown – up and together – the old-fashioned way, step-by-playoff-round-step the past three years.
They'd done it in spite of Granger's setbacks, allowing him enough time to return and search for value he could bring off the bench. Only now he's gone, Bird deciding that Turner's livelier game offers more. Who'd know better than Bird that chasing championships isn't for softies?
"Danny was one of the main reasons I came here," power forward David West said. "So the idea that he's not going to be around what we're trying to do is a little tough to deal with. But it's a part of the business. And if he happens to go to a team whether it's in the West or the East, if he doesn't stay in Philly and we've got to compete against Danny, then we just have to do it."
Welcome to Pacers 2.0, a group that added pieces Thursday and, as it did, steeled its resolve. They might seem to have a lot of variables in play, too many given their impressive first half this season: a 9-6 record since Jan. 20, the Andrew Bynum experiment that's just begun, the loss of Granger and the indoctrination of Turner and Allen.
But it gives them chores, a to-do list to take their minds off Miami in a tightened race for the East's best record. With the promise of something special.
"Y'know, this is a starter-owned team, so there's not variables in that regard. It's just the parts that are around them," coach Frank Vogel said. "I think there's room to improve."
Bynum practiced Friday briefly, after spending his All-Star break in Indianapolis working on his game and conditioning. There's no penciled-in date for his game debut, but Vogel said the slack in his team's schedule this week will mean more practice for the 7-foot center, adrift when he signed Feb. 1 after a spotty half season in Cleveland and a lost year with Philadelphia.
Evan and Allen didn't join Indiana in time to face and beat the Bucks Saturday but are expected to play Tuesday against the Lakers at Bankers Life Fieldhouse. It will be on them, especially Turner, to shake off the cobwebs of Philadelphia's 15-42 for a team with a mirror record and ambitions.
"He's going to have to be able to adjust early and find his way," said George, who went eight picks after No. 2 Turner in the 2010 Draft. "I think we're going to do a great job of pulling him in and helping him along the process.
"He's a good friend of mine, so I'll be one of the first people to help him through this process. … In big games, he's one of those guys who can impact it in so many ways. He guards on the other end, he has the ability to make shots and can get into the paint at will."
Bird surely did his homework on Turner, a talent with spotty production in his first three-plus seasons who has been putting up numbers for a bad team. George knows him well. And West did a little reconnaissance, having played at Xavier for the same coach – Thad Matta – Turner had at Ohio State.
"We've got a little background on him," West said. "I definitely talked to coach."
Turner got a taste of the playoffs in his first two seasons. But he's never had an opportunity like this one.
"That's what I'm banking on," West said. "Those guys have been in tough situations and they're coming to a winning and strong basketball culture. Hopefully it helps them thrive and gives them some pride. I know Turner's a competitor. He's given us trouble when we've played against him in the past.
"Hopefully he knows the plan here is to play into June."

|Docket No: ER06-615-000, et al.
Chairman Joseph T. Kelliher's statement on California Independent System Operator, Corp.
"The purpose of the MRTU order is clear: to prevent a recurrence of the California and Western power crisis from 2000-2001.
There were three principal causes of the California and Western power crisis. First, a lack of electricity supply in California. As a result, California imported more power from other Western states that would otherwise be the case. Second, poor market rules, particularly rules that governed the behavior of state regulated utilities in California. Third, market manipulation.
We have made a lot of progress in all three areas over the past few years, and are in a much better position to prevent a recurrence of the California and Western power crisis.
We have issued new rules to prevent market manipulation. Before 2005, the Commission did not have the right regulatory tools to prevent and sanction market manipulation. That represented a gap in our regulatory authority, one that Congress filled last year with enactment of the Energy Policy Act of 2005. Filling this regulatory gap was a personal priority for me, and I am pleased Congress agreed with our need for more authority. Congress established a statutory prohibition against market manipulation, and authorized the agency to implement rules. We acted quickly to deploy our new regulatory authority.
There has also been progress on reform of market rules. Some of the California market rules were corrected by the Commission five years ago. However, rule flaws remain. Some of these flaws were recognized years ago, and progress has been slow.
California has also made significant progress on improving electricity supply. However, southern California remains dangerously dependent on power imports from the rest of the West.
There is a need to take further steps to reduce the prospect of a recurrence of the California and Western power crisis. We can do more to prevent another crisis.
The MRTU order makes continued progress in all three areas. It takes major steps to assure adequate electricity supply in California, through the resource adequacy provisions. I would like to commend the California Public Utility Commission for its efforts in resource adequacy and note that the MRTU tariff builds on these state efforts. It makes important incremental improvements to market rules. It guards against market manipulation.
California is not a discrete power market; it is an important part of a broader Western power market. There is heightened concern in the West that California market rules could cause problems in Western power markets. That is a valid concern.
The Western Interconnection encompasses regions that have adopted organized markets and regions that have not. There currently exist "seams" at the borders between the CAISO and other bilateral markets in the West. These seams exist today, and are not created by MRTU. MRTU is designed, in many ways, to mitigate the seams and enhance trade between the differing regions within the West. For example, the day-ahead energy market should allow more opportunities for imports and exports to be scheduled ahead of real-time. However, we are sensitive to the seams concerns raised by Western parties. For that reason, the order grants their request for a technical conference to ensure seams issues will continue to receive the attention they deserve and are carefully considered.
However, the question before the Commission is not whether there should be an organized market in California. That question was asked and answered years ago. The question is whether we should act to fix the rules that govern the California market, whether we should reform flawed market rules, whether the status quo is better for California and the West than the MRTU order.
In my view, the West is better off with the MRTU order than under the status quo. The West is better off because under MRTU, California will take greater steps to assure adequate electricity supply in the state. California will lean less on the West than it does currently. The West is better off because of the improved market rules, which finally correct flaws that were identified years ago.
This order is not the last word on MRTU. Some issues are not resolved completely in this order, and will be examined at the technical conference and compliance filings and Commission orders. This order is the latest in a long series of orders that trace back six years. It is doubtless the most important order in that series.
Our process has been very deliberate. The MRTU process began six years ago. There has been no rush to judgment. Instead, our approach has been very deliberate.
It is important to note that although we approve MRTU, we order significant changes in a number of areas.
As I said, the purpose of this order is to prevent a recurrence of the California and Western power crisis. To do that, we must continue to make progress assuring adequate electricity supply in California, reform flawed market rules, and strengthen our safeguards against market manipulation. Failure to make progress in these three critical areas leaves California and the West exposed to greater risks.
I support the order."

It's been such a whirlwind week for new Wabash College President Patrick White that he's barely had time to stop and savor his new home.
"I was walking on campus with (Gary) Phillips (Wabash's new dean) after he arrived," White said on Tuesday. "I stopped in the middle of the mall and said, 'Just look at this place! Isn't this exciting?' So we're all pretty pumped."
White, Ph.D., officially started work on July 1 as the 15th president in Wabash College history. He'll be inaugurated in January.
A native of Dixon, Ill., White did his undergraduate studies at the University of Chicago and earned his master's degree and Ph.D. in English and American literature from the University of Iowa. Prior to coming to Wabash, he spent the past 18 years as vice president and dean of faculty at St. Mary's College, Notre Dame, which, ironically enough, is an all-women's college.
White credits senior officers Tom Bambrey, Joe Emmick and Steve Klein — as well as other faculty members — for making the presidential transition go smoothly.
"They've done such a good job of taking on new things I need to know, and also giving me the history," he said. "Because there's so much that happens — in any good administration — almost automatically or without an awful lot of discussion because people get to know each other really well. So they're having to go back and explain a lot of things they've done without a lot of discussion."
Outgoing president Andy Ford and his wife Anne also prepared White for his new role.
"He would advise me of what was coming up, help me understand a particular problem or issue or decision I had to make," White said. "He was also very clear about the ways in which he was leaving certain decisions for me, and preparing the ground for my coming on board. He did a great job."
White enters at a time of prosperity and change at Wabash College. Enrollment is strong and institutions such as the Center of Inquiry in the Liberal Arts and the Wabash Center for Teaching and Learning in Religion and Theology continue to excel on the national stage. At the same time, other new faces are taking over leadership positions. Dena Frantz starts as Wabash Center director on Jan. 1, and Tim Lake will lead the Malcolm X Institute. Also Larry Griffith has been named the college's chief financial officer and treasurer.
One aspect of Wabash that hasn't escaped White's notice is the sheer enthusiasm shared by faculty and students, even alumni.
"I am continually impressed and pleased with how proud Wabash students, alumni, faculty and staff are of the college," he said. "I'd run into alumni at South Bend, and they'd want to grab me by the lapels and tell me how wonderful their college was. They would tell me this college transformed their lives. It was the most important factor in who they are. That is a huge responsibility — to help everybody here continue that legacy of being a place where young men have their lives so incredibly influenced that they're forever changed by their experience."
White also talked about the continued importance of the town/gown relationship between Crawfordsville and Wabash College. He cited the college's Business Immersion Program, where students get entrepreneurial experience working with local businesses or civic organizations, as an example of both sides working in tandem for the betterment of all involved.
"It's not an accident that Wabash is in a small town," White said. "Many brilliant liberal arts colleges are in small communities. It should part of the attraction and part of the excellence at Wabash — to be related to Crawfordsville. The long history of culture and learning in the Athens of the Midwest — that kind of aspect is something we need to remind ourselves of and move forward."
Coggeshall is a reporter for the Crawfordsville Journal Review.

BRISTOL — After the hearing on a proposed firehouse expansion at Holley Hall Monday evening, few people stayed around for the public hearing on the Bristol Police Department's proposed 2013-2014 spending plan. Those that did heard the rationale for spending a little extra to move the department into a new space at the BristolWorks business park.

VERGENNES — Vergennes aldermen on Tuesday crossed a couple potential sites for a new police station off their list, but also discussed two new possibilities and addressed a station's potential cost.
Taken off the list at the recommendation of the council's police station committee were two properties on North Main Street, the Kennedy Brothers building and a 14-acre parcel owned by Vermont Industrial Parks, a subsidiary of Carrara & Sons Inc.
MIDDLEBURY — It would be an understatement to say that Gary Barclay's first day as a Middlebury police officer was a case of baptism by fire.
It was 1971. The Vietnam War was still raging and President Richard Nixon was in the White House. Barclay, then 25, had recently dropped off an application at the Middlebury Police Department in hopes of securing some part-time work in a field that appealed to him.
Then the call came. It was from then-Middlebury Police Chief Robert Van Ness.

Vh1 is keeping Evelyn Lozada and Chad Ochocinco's wedding tightly under wraps in preparation for their spinoff, Ev & Ocho. Lucky for us Shaunie O'Neal attended the festivities in St. Maarten and while drunk at Essence Festival in New Orleans, she spilled some details on the nuptials!
"She's a Johnson!" Shaunie gushed to Vh1, adding that everything about the day was perfect. As for the bride and groom they looked amazing according to Shaunie. Describing Chad's outfit, Shaunie shares: "When he came down [the aisle], that boy was sharp! I've been talking about his outfit ever since I left. He look so good!"
Ocho sported a navy blue "rich looking suit" that was "tailored perfectly." And his shoes even matched his outfit. Well, that's success! "They went with that suit and that wedding," a happy
drunk Shaunie slurred announced.
