Montrose High School Earns Jostens National Yearbook Design Recognition
May 1st @ 7:29 am in News by Scott Staley
Montrose High School's yearbook, The Chief, has been recognized for excellence and featured in the 2013 Gotcha Covered Look Book, Volume 11 celebrating the best-of-the-best in yearbook design and coverage. Jostens Look Book is a collection of spreads and photos from outstanding yearbooks and their creative themes, cool covers, dazzling designs, relevant coverage, storytelling copy and action-packed photography. Along with design excellence, the annually published Look Book honors the important role well-crafted yearbooks play in helping schools chronicle the experiences, stories and achievements most relevant to students and that academic year.
"I am really proud of my students for this accomplishment. It is a huge honor in the yearbook world. The Chief has been featured in the Look Book two years in a row now which shows how innovative and talented our student are here at Montrose Highs School," Yearbook Adviser Kathy Gaber said.
Montrose High School's The Chief was one of only 425 yearbooks selected from approximately 3,000. The 2013 panel of judges, comprised of nationally recognized scholastic journalism professionals and award-winning yearbook advisers, selected the best examples of yearbook spreads and covers to make up the 352-page 2013 Look Book.
"Yearbooks are unique, limited edition books created by students to capture the stories and events for all of the school's students and Jostens is proud to celebrate the yearbook tradition and the 425 yearbooks selected for the 2013 Gotcha Covered Look Book, said John Dalke, editor. "Today's yearbooks are very sophisticated in terms of visual presentation and the relevant and inclusive content that is featured."
Kathy Gaber and her yearbook staff received a copy of Jostens 2013 Gotcha Covered Look Book and plaque from Jostens to recognize their outstanding achievement. Jostens Gotcha Covered Look Book is a must-have resource for yearbook advisers and staffs seeking creative design and coverage ideas, trends and inspiration.
The XCII Volume of The Chief yearbook will soon be emerging amongst Montrose High School students. The books will be distributed in the Montrose High School auxiliary gymnasium Thursday, May 16 during access for the underclassmen and after graduation practice for seniors. If students do not pick them up at this time or if they did not pre-order, they will need to wait until after Monday, May 20th to get them from the activities office.
The Chief was created by Editor-In-Chief Shae Peterson, Design Editor Katie Burnet, Copy Editor Emily Wolverton, Photo Editor Chelsea Peterson, Portrait Editor Carmen Davidson, Business Manager Ashlee Black, and the yearbook staff members under the direction of Kathy Gaber, Montrose High School's yearbook adviser. The nine sophomores, 12 juniors, and 10 seniors on The Chief staff have worked incredibly hard to create this year's edition of the yearbook. They have planned the theme and layouts, sold advertisements and yearbooks, taken many photos at school events, written stories and captions, and crafted pages from scratch among countless other things that go into the creation of a successful yearbook. Last year's yearbooks sold out fast, so interested parties should contact the Montrose High School activities office as soon as possible.

I focus on taxes and litigation.
Beginning September 15, 2012, a new law takes effect in the Golden State (Stats. 2011, ch. 313 (AB 155)). See Online buying surges as tax deadline looms. It drastically expands the out-of-state retailers required to register with California's State Board of Equalization (BOE), the agency that administers California's sales and use tax laws. What's more, once registered, businesses must begin collecting California use tax when making sales of tangible personal property to California consumers.
Amazon and other giant online sellers will begin collecting the tax on shipments into California September 15. What's that? Your internet-based business is in Georgia or Connecticut or Nebraska and you've got no connections to California? Read on.
Nexus? The law applies to out-of-state retailers that have sold more than $1 million to California consumers in the past year and have had more than $10,000 in sales referred by an affiliate in California. This is California's new definition of nexus with the state's valued consumers, thus justifying California's tax.
Who Pays? Sales and use tax is usually paid by the consumer, but in most cases the seller collects and remits it. Does the new law mean businesses across America have to pay California's tax? Yes and no. They can collect the tax from their California customers and simply hand it over to the BOE.
However, if they fail to collect it, they have to dig in their own pockets to pay it. Make no mistake, California needs the revenue, but tax officials are going out of their way to make it clear that this isn't a new tax. California use tax has been on the books since 1935! The key, of course, is who has to collect it, and that is changing.
California is reaching out to several hundred out-of-state retailers, but there's no question that's a drop in the bucket. The BOE is trying to encourage out-of-state retailers to register online. The state has an electronic registration system and allows e-filing of returns.
Business entities (like partnerships, corporations and LLCs) as well as sole proprietors required to register should apply for a California Certificate of Registration–Use Tax using BOE-400-CSC. You may apply online using electronic registration (eReg). Retailers with questions are urged to contact the BOE Out-of-State Office at 916-227-6600.
What are Californians doing about this? Many are clicking like crazy before September 15. Such purchases are already subject to California's use tax, but enforcement has been lax. That era is ending.
Robert W. Wood practices law with Wood LLP, in San Francisco. The author of more than 30 books, including Taxation of Damage Awards & Settlement Payments (4th Ed. 2009 with 2012 Supplement, Tax Institute), he can be reached at email@example.com. This discussion is not intended as legal advice, and cannot be relied upon for any purpose without the services of a qualified professional.
I fail to see how $1M sales qualify as nexus. The Quill decision only qualifies Nexus as having physical presence. Clearly, CA overstepped is bounds on this one.
Robert, Affiliate nexus is a separate line item in the bill. That too I deem as unconstitutional, as affiliates are not employees, yet but another nexus standard. Only a court ruling will get that overturned like what happened in IL over the summer and still pending in NY.
I look forward to the conversation. I doubt if Bills before Congress will pass in an election year. The bills will be recycled in the 113th Congress for a do-over.
The Quill Vs. North Dakota decision was in 1992 and has nothing to do with internet as a sales and marketing platform. California is tempting an online retailer to challenge the California Nexus Law in federal court. Come September 17th the BOE of California will file lawsuits against any online retailer they believe violates their nexus law. I can't wait to see if anyone has deep enough pockets to challenge. I know for a fact that several online companies were told by their counsel not to challenge California. Amazon is lobbying Congress for a Federal internet tax along with Walmart and Costco.
I don't understand why CA residents are getting so worked up about this. Just because Amazon has not been collecting the sales tax all these years, doesn't mean residents don't have to pay it. We are supposed to pay the sales tax we owe (not collected by retailers) every year to the CA Board of Equalization.
I have been paying the sales taxes I owe every year to the BOE, but I would much rather have the retailers collect it at the time of purchase to cut down on the record keeping I have to do in order to calculate how much I owe.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Now that Shug McGaughey has won the Kentucky Derby, it's time for the 62-year-old trainer to go after another race missing from his Hall of Fame resume.
Orb will follow up his win at Churchill Downs by running in the Preakness on May 18, giving the colt a shot at the Triple Crown.
Orb arrived back at his home base in New York on Sunday, as did McGaughey and jockey Joel Rosario. The trainer was still absorbing what happened a day earlier. The colt extended his winning streak to five races, splashing through the slop to win the Derby by 2¼ lengths, giving McGaughey and Rosario their first Derby wins. Orb rallied from 17th and made a sweeping move on the turn for home to win.
"It did not matter if it was wet or dry, the best horse won," rival trainer D. Wayne Lukas said
McGaughey never has won the Preakness in two previous attempts. He hasn't had a horse in the race since 1989, when Easy Goer finished second to Sunday Silence, duplicating their Derby finish that year.
For a trainer who has always shown patience with his horses, McGaughey is eagerly anticipating the grueling Triple Crown campaign that compresses three races into a five-week span.
"I can't wait to get to the Preakness and do it again," he said.
It's fitting that Orb is set to run in Baltimore, the hometown of Stuart Janney III. He and co-owner Ogden Mills "Dinny" Phipps, who also bred Orb, have never won the Preakness.
"The Preakness is important to me. I grew up around it, went there all the time," Janney said.
McGaughey has worked exclusively for Janney and Phipps for years, training the horses they breed. In a sport known for rampant jealousy, there was an outpouring of goodwill for all three men after the Derby.

CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) - A week before the special election in South Carolina's 1st Congressional District, House Democrats launched another ad attacking former Gov. Mark Sanford's personal indiscretions. Sanford, meanwhile, picked up the endorsement of Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, who is considering a run for president.
Both Sanford and his Democratic opponent, Elizabeth Colbert Busch, were to appear at events Tuesday, a day after their first campaign debate. That debate marked the first time Colbert Busch raised the issue of Sanford's past.
Paul said in a statement that Sanford has shown that watching out for the taxpayers and holding the line on spending are his top priorities.
Meanwhile, the new television ad from the House Majority PAC featured a woman who says that she is a lifelong Republican but that Sanford's betrayal of South Carolinians "is more than a mile long."

EU trade measures will bring relief to poor countries but more is needed
The European Commission's decision to bring forward a new system of trade preferences for poor countries will help reduce poverty by improving market access for their exports, but the gains will be limited as many protectionist measures persist, warned international agency Oxfam today.
"Today's announcement is welcome as it represents a willingness on the part of Europe to use trade measures to help developing countries, including those affected by the tsunami," said Phil Bloomer, Head of Oxfam International's Make Trade Fair Campaign. "However, the EU could do a lot more to make trade work for poor people. Under today's proposal, bigger developing countries, like India, may lose out, even though they have millions of very poor inhabitants. This is one step in the right direction but there is still a long way to go."
Oxfam also welcomed Europe's promise to review its unfair 'rules of origin', which limit the extent to which poor countries are eligible for preferences by stipulating that the majority of components in a product must be sourced domestically. Rules of origin represent a major barrier to trade, particularly for clothing exporters such as Sri Lanka, the Maldives and other very poor countries.
Bloomer: "Reform of the EU's unfair rules of origin is long overdue. For too long, countries that are fully entitled to trade preferences have been denied them because they have sourced some of the ingredients from overseas. For example, shirts produced in the Maldives are burdened with massive taxes when sold in the EU just because the fabric comes from China. These conditions are canceling out the benefits of a system designed to help the poor."
The EU's Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) is a system of special trade deals through which Europe gives improved access to its markets for poor countries. Following the Asian tsunami, the European Commission has agreed to fast track the GSP by three months as a way to bring some relief to the affected countries. The new program of trade preferences will now come into effect on April 1st.
There are good and bad aspects of the new deal:
- The new fast-tracked GSP will help Sri Lanka and other small developing countries outside the tsunami region, because some EU tariffs come down to zero.
- The promise to ease rules of origin so that countries can qualify more easily for reduced tariffs is welcome, especially for the least developed countries such as the Maldives, Bangladesh and Cambodia. These countries have – theoretically - duty free access to EU markets for their clothing exports but in practice pay hundreds of millions of Euros in duties.
- Larger developing countries such as Indonesia, India and
Thailand obtain some reduction in tariffs on some products, but it
may not last long, perhaps only up to 2008. These countries face
substantial trade barriers on many agricultural products. The
GSPprogram unfairly discriminates against larger developing
countries such as India, even if they are very poor in income

Cincinnati (AP) -- An Ohio Grand Jury has indicted a registered sex offender on 12 counts involving the slayings of two girls and a woman in cases dating back to 2006.
The Hamilton County Grand Jury on Tuesday indicted 40-year-old Anthony Kirkland on charges of aggravated murder and attempted rape in the recent death of 13-year-old Esme Kenney. The indictment also charges Kirkland with murdering a 14-year-old girl and a 45-year-old woman whose bodies were found in 2006.
Kirkland was arrested on a murder charge after Cincinnati Police found him near Kenney's partially burned body in woods near her home March 8. Police say she left her home the day before to go jogging.
He was being held on $5.3 million bail. A message was left for his attorney.

Tiger Woods delivered a few memorable shots of his own Thursday at Quail Hollow on a pleasant day that produced birdies and eagles and plenty of excitement.
It's just not what he had in mind.
He hit a tee shot into the water on the par-3 17th that produced little reaction except to hold out his hand for another ball. He hit his next tee shot into the water and had to scramble for bogey. And he wound up with a 2-over 74 that left him nine shots behind Bo Van Pelt and ended his streak of 21 straight rounds at par or better.

Barack Obama's New Trick for Distancing Himself from Gays
There's an impatient crowd of gay folks on President Obama's desk-plate, and it seems he's finally figured out a way to deal with them — one of them, at least…
Obama announced the nomination of David Huebner, a leader of the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD), to be ambassador to New Zealand and Samoa.
Huebner's day job is more lucrative. A Yale Law grad, Huebner heads the China practice and the international disputes practice at the law firm Sheppard Mullin Richter & Hampton, and is currently based in Shanghai.
Yes, but Shanghai is just a leetle too close to D.C. for Barack Obama's taste, so, New Zealand and Samoa it is. Have fun out there, Mr. Huebner! Come on back to the States when you're legally allowed to marry a man who's legally allowed to be a gay Army officer.
What's on your calendar for 2094?

Cohen weighs in on Taiwanese politics in Wall Street Journal
Professor Jerome Cohen, co-director of the NYU School of Law's U.S.-Asia Law Institute, and institute research fellow Yu-Jie Chen (LL.M. '08) published an op-ed piece in the July 27 Wall Street Journal concerning the decision of Ma Ying-jeou (LL.M. '76), president of Taiwan, to return to the chairmanship of his political party, the Kuomintang (KMT), after saying last year that he would not do so.
Cohen and Chen argued that the move could increase the effectiveness of the government. Since his election, Ma has found it difficult to push his agenda through the legislature, affecting everything from government investigations to appointments for the Council of Grand Justices. As KMT chairman, Ma can impose party discipline in support of his goals, influence the selection of legislative leaders and party officials, and attract administrative talent.
Ma's return to the KMT chairmanship could also lead to improved relations between Taiwan and mainland China, the co-authors said. Since the president of China, Hu Jintao, is also chairman of the Chinese Communist Party, a meeting between two party leaders is a potential alternative to less feasible government-to-government talks. Cohen and Chen also urged the KMT to include the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), its opposition, in forum talks, and also encouraged the DPP to participate, despite its reluctance to engage with mainland China.

Money on the markets
A maturing market amid the mayhem
Bharti Infratel IPO: What brokerages are saying
(Any opinions expressed here are those of the author, and not necessarily those of Thomson Reuters)
Bharti Infratel's initial share sale will likely be India's biggest in nearly two years and key for the country's troubled telecom sector, which has been hit by regulatory flip-flops.
Price Band: 210 – 240 rupees/share
Issue opens, closes: Dec 11 – Dec 14
The share sale of the telecommunications tower unit of top Indian phone carrier Bharti Airtel Ltd will raise $825 million in the upper end of the price range. The sale comes amidst signs of a revival in the primary market with other smaller private offerings like CARE Ratings, PC Jewellers and Tara Jewels in the process of raising or having recently raised capital.
The sale will also be a test of bigger offerings as the government aims to raise roughly $1.2 billion by selling shares in miner NMDC Ltd, sources told Reuters.

My Communities
My Discussions
My Email Digests
for the last two weeks or so, i've been taking 25 mg of amitriptyline at night as a preventive for migraines. i have gained five pounds in the last week, although i have not been doing anything out of my normal routine.
does amitriptyline make you gain weight? is this from water retention that i can somehow prevent? what other meds have people found that work well as a preventive but that don't bring weight gain along with them as a side effect? i have a hard enough time controlling my "regular" weight without having to deal with med-caused weight gain too.
thanks very much for any ideas.
-- susie margaret
Actually, I have been told by three of my physicians, 2 neuros and my primary care doc, that Topamax has the tendency to make you to lose weight. I think one of them said it acts as a sort of appetite suppressant, to a degree, and makes sodas taste bad to you so you don't want to drink them. I have not noticed the soda thing, but I'm not a real big soda drinker, but I have recently stopped taking Seroquel, which I was taking for trouble sleeping, and that is well known to cause weight gain. So I really don't know whether to attribute the decreased appetite to the Topamax, which I've been on for about 6 months, or the discontinuation of the Seroquel.
Of course, everyone is different, so this is just a suggestion. BTW, I tried Elavil last year when I had no insurance and was dirt-poor, and it did not work as a preventive and I also gained weight on it. This year, I have Disability and Medicare, so it's back to the Topamax, which works better.
I hope this helps you. Be well.
thanks very much for your reply! i have an appointment with my neurologist this week and will ask him about topamax. on my own, i've cut my amitriptyline dosage (25 mg) into half (12.5 mg) to try to alleviate the weight gain problem, but it is too soon for me to tell if that has helped.
-- susie margaret
I too have been gaining weight. I used to be on amitriptyline a few years ago, I had to stop - many side effects. I find lots of the med's tend to cause weight gain. In the past year and a half, the doctor has put me steroids - you want to talk about weight gain, I've have gained a shocking 35 pounds. The thing is what really drives me crazy is thorough all these 8 years of suffering with migraines, when ask my doctors about the side effects I experience, they tell me no, no that's not because of the medicine. But yet when I do research on my own, guess what? the side effects that I'm feeling match. Go figure! I still haven't found any medicine that won't cause weight gain, or a doctor that really wants go that extra mile ( I need Dr House). So be careful if your doctor prescribes any steroids like dexamethasone. Hopefully you will find a medicine that works for you. Nadji
thanks so much for your replies. this weight thing is really discouraging to me, and i'm really glad that i'm going to see my neurologist on thursday.
i've hardly ever had side effects from meds (and i take a lot of them), but when i saw my psychiatrist a short time ago and told him that my neurologist had recently put me on amitriptyline and that, by the way, i also wanted to get rid of some of the weight i had gained over the last couple of years, my psychiatrist said, "good luck with that on the amitriptyline!" my heart sank; oh, no. and he knows everything about psychopharmacology.
so that's on my list for the neurologist! however, i do have to admit when i first went to the neurologist, i was unbearably wretched with pain and the ami seems to have helped that a lot, even in this short time -- fewer headaches, not as painful.

The MTA is asking members to contact their state representatives and urge them to support legislative amendments that would address critically important education funding needs in the House budget.
The Ways and Means Committee's FY14 budget plan, released on April 10, begins to reverse 13 years of cuts in higher education but is below Governor Deval Patrick's proposed spending plan.
The Ways and Means budget does make a substantial increase in funding for public colleges and universities, as well as a modest increase in Chapter 70 funding. However, early education programs for young children were cut by 3 percent compared to FY13.
While applauding increased funding for higher education in the committee's budget, MTA President Paul Toner has called the committee's overall budget plan a "tremendous loss for low-income children compared to the governor's budget proposal." Of the hundreds of amendments that have been submitted to the Ways and Means budget, some address funding gaps for areas including early childhood education and care and literacy programs in Gateway Cities. The House plan, for example, would leave scholarship funding at the same level as it is in the current fiscal year. The governor's proposal would add $112 million in scholarships for students.
The House plan allocates $17 million less for early education and care than had been approved in its original FY13 budget, despite a list of 30,000 low-income children waiting for services.
The House committee's allocation for K-12 students would include modest improvements over FY13, but spending would still be far less ambitious than under the governor's plan. The current House proposal would make reductions in several programs and services, including career academies in Gateway Cities, early intervention literacy tutoring, alternative education programs and charter school reimbursements.
The bright spot in the current House plan is higher education, which has seen drastic cuts since 2001. The committee's plan would increase public higher education spending overall by 10 percent over last year. That includes a $35 million increase for UMass, $24 million more for state universities and a $35 million increase for community colleges. As a result of the increases, tuition and fees would be frozen at public higher education campuses. UMass would see a two-year freeze in tuition and fee increases.
Toner said the MTA will press for the revenue increases needed to make sure Massachusetts preschools, public schools and public colleges are "second to none" and provide opportunities for all students, regardless of where they live or how much their parents earn."
MTA-backed amendments in the House bill include the following:

Last week we visited a dedicated artist who crafted handmade high-quality horror movie replicas in resin and vinyl and sold his wares primarily on eBay and Etsy. Today's DIY spotlight shines on another online seller, this time a top-notch mask-maker with an eye for detail and a knack for original creations inspired by horror films, comics and other media. Raging Zombie Studios maintains a small but interesting online presence, with a Facebook page and a blog featuring many images of their works in progress... and their well-stocked eBay store will bring a toothy smile to the face of any true horror fan.
The gallery of latex masks, busts, and other replicas includes many of your favorite horror icons (Michael Myers, Jason Voorhees, Freddy Krueger, Leatherface and the Tarman from Return of the Living Dead number among them), as well as a few replicas you're less likely to find from other shops... including a full-size "Crite" puppet from the Critters movies and a Crite egg from the second film in that series. Other masks and busts include original creations such as a Cenobite-style demon and a rockabilly Frankenstein monster.
Be sure to visit the Raging Zombie FX eBay store to see what's on the auction block, and drop by their photo blog to find out what they're making next!

A Dexter resident battling leukemia has been invited to accompany 7th District Congressman Tim Walberg's guest at President Obama's State of the Union Address on Tuesday.
The president addresses the nation at 9 p.m. Tuesday
Julie Boonstra has been fighting leukemia for five years, but lost her insurance because of the president's signature Affordable Health Care Act, Walberg, a Tipton Republican, said in a news release.
"I am honored to have Julie as my guest to the State of the Union this year," he said. "She has been through a lot with her health and insurance problems and deserves to hear what the president has to say on the matter."
Walberg thinks the Affordable Care Act, commonly known as Obamacare, should be repealed.
"My hope is that soon we can put this harmful law behind us and replace it with patient-centered solutions that promote consumer choice, decrease health-care costs and improve access to quality care," he said.

Budget Cuts Should Not Compromise Safety, Naval Officers Told
- By Kedar Pavgi
- March 7, 2013
- Leave a comment
The head of the U.S. Fleet Forces Command told naval officers on Wednesday to maintain operational safety even as they begin to execute and manage across-the-board budget cuts from sequestration.
Adm. Bill Gortney said it was the responsibility of officers "to assess if and when [their] command is approaching the limits of safe operation" and encouraged them to "exercise [their] authority to suspend operations to prevent mishaps."
"One hundred percent of fleet mishaps in the past six months have been a result of human error," Gortney said. "It is imperative that you keep your people focused on the tasks at hand and eliminate distractions from those things they are unable to influence, like the fiscal climate."
Gortney also emphasized that the possibility for civilian furloughs at Fleet Forces Command remained real and that sequestration would affect many elements in the service.
Todd Harrison, a senior fellow at the Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments, wrote in an August 2012 paper that sequestration would force higher than normal cuts on the military's operations and maintenance budget because that money is usually spent in the same fiscal year it is appropriated. Military leaders have long argued that sequestration would affect money allocated for military equipment and repair.
In February, Gortney told the Fleet Forces Command that "the vast majority of deployments will be unaffected" in fiscal 2013 by budget sequestration, but noted that changes might be necessary. Already, fiscal uncertainty forced the Navy to postpone the deployment of a carrier strike group, and Navy Secretary Ray Mabus outlined other actions the service was taking to help manage the budget gap.

Current_Issue.tar.gz - A Chicken in Every Pot and Linux in Every Pocket
The problem with mind-control devices is they generally work only in very close proximity to the host. In our ongoing quest to take over the world, we've come up with a way to keep our open-source mind probes tethered to our victims at all times: embedding Linux into the phones of the populace. With the help of Google and its vow against being evil (tee-hee!), we've taken over a significant percentage of the market. Soon, our free ideals and open standards will take over the world! MWAHAHAHA!
Okay, perhaps I should avoid watching vintage sci-fi films right before writing my column. Nonetheless, this month is an exciting issue. Our focus is "Linux in Your Pocket". Whether you're a fan of Android, Maemo, MeeGo or Moblin, the mobile computer market is busting at the seams with tablets, phones and Netbook crossovers.
Having armies of Android minions is pointless if you can't program them to bend to your will, and Paul Barry shows us that Java isn't the only way to make Android apps. Python is a very popular scripting language, and Python for Android opens up mobile device programming for a whole bunch of people. If Android isn't your cup of tea, you might be interested in MeeGo 1.1. Ibrahim Haddad describes the ins and outs of the project that sprouted from Intel's Moblin and Nokia's Maemo. Some people love it, and some people hate it, but it works on both Netbooks and smartphones, so trying it should be pretty simple.
Granted, merely running Linux on mobile devices isn't a recipe for world domination, but Stuart Jarvis explains how to keep tabs on the world itself with Marble. The KDE program, which is a virtual globe, has been ported to mobile devices that support Nokia's Qt framework. Although spinning a globe on your handheld certainly is entertaining, because it's a digital globe, the features are a bit more robust. We may have gotten ants dizzy on the globe in geography class back in school; however, with Marble, you get a smart globe capable of mapping destinations and planning trips. If you add augmented reality to the mix, you can take a complete vacation without ever taking your eyes off your phone! Rick Rogers shows how to use augmented reality with HTML5 for an experience reminiscent of the heads-up display used in every first-person-shooter game ever made. I don't recommend walking around with your cell phone strapped to your face, but it does make quick order of unfamiliar surroundings.
If by some odd chance you're not a mad scientist bent on creating pocket-sized mind-control devices, fear not. This issue has many other great articles and columns to scratch that Linux itch. Kyle Rankin starts a series on personal servers, proving that everyone can be sysadmins, even if they never leave their home offices. Whether you're looking to host a local file server or manage Internet services from your basement, Kyle's series is an exciting one for those interested in taking charge of their data. If you do host your own server, you'll want to read Mick Bauer's column as well—part I of his interview with a system cracker.
If programming is more up your alley, check out Reuven M. Lerner's column this month. Now that Ruby on Rails is at version 3, you probably want to know what that means if you're a Ruby programmer. Reuven describes what's new, what's the same, and why you might care either way. Additionally, Dave Taylor teaches us more about shell scripting, again with a really fun project. If you've ever played Mad Libs, you know it can be fun. In fact, if you follow along with Dave, you might not even realize you're learning as you go, because Mad Libs can be wildly entertaining.
We've also got product reviews, like Bill Childer's review of the NOOKcolor (which he totally hacked and tells us how to do the same). It's a great way to get a decent tablet at a cheap price, and also read some books along the way. Mike Diehl follows, showing application creation with Radical Breeze's Illumination Software Creator. For those of you who don't actually like to write code, Mike has just the programming framework for you.
As for me, I'm going to read Chuck Elliot's article on programming Bluetooth devices. I see half the population walking around with Bluetooth earpieces attached to their heads. If I can just reprogram them to emit subliminal messages to their hosts, I can have a zombie army in no time! MWAHAHAHA!
Oh, right. Turn off the late night sci-fi and get this issue in the mail. Done and done. Enjoy!

Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

Virtualization offers the promise of limitless resources, but how do you manage that scalability when your DevOps team doesn't scale? In today's hypercompetitive markets, fast results can make a difference between leading the pack vs. obsolescence. Organizations need more benefits from cloud computing than just raw resources. They need agility, flexibility, convenience, ROI, and control.

I would just like to thank Debra for allowing us to stay at her beautiful house. This really is a stunning property with everything you could need and more. Our first impression when we walked in was WOW!! The furnishings are top quality, the house is immaculately clean and has the comfiest beds I've slept in. It has a beautiful garden you can use and the view from the private hot tub is incredible, a perfect place to sit back and relax. We honestly didn't want to leave the place so instead of eating out like we had been doing we stayed back and had a BBQ on the deck and bottle of wine instead - amazing - however if you did fancy eating out the location is great too, close to everything you will need. I would recommend this property in a heartbeat it really is a beautiful house and would love to return someday we really wished we'd had longer to enjoy it more fully. Thank you again. Sarah Lee
Our stay at this rental home was very enjoyable and relaxing. Anette was very accommodating and hospitable in making sure we had everything we needed. Thank you for sharing your home with us!
Our week-long stay at Sunset Vista was a great venue for our friends vacation. Plenty of space for 7 adults with varying interests. We spent most of our time cooking in the well equipped kitchen, lounging in and around the excellent pool or on the expansive deck, and taking in some of the World Cup. The large dining table was great for boardgames in the evenings. The surrounding neighbourhood is quite, with little traffic, and great for morning runs. The house was quite easy to locate, and a relatively short drive to grocery stores, wineries, hiking trails, and the downtown area. I would recommend anyone with a medium to large group to stay at Sunset Vista, and if we plan another trip to Kelowna, we'd definitely try to stay here again.

Help Our Community Answer Your Questions Better By Including In Your Post: Gender, Have You Been Tested For An STD Yet?
Type Of STD Tests and Results? Any Medications To Control Your STD?
My Doctor told me I may have had this for years - it just did not flare up until now.
I am so embarrassed, scared and all the emotions that can happen to one when they find out. Thoughts on life have not been too good.
Been searching the web trying to find anything and everything I can about this.
I have enough things going against me, that to add this is just .... can't even find words.
I'll keep reading on this site, look for positives and hopefully learn to live and deal with it.
You say you have so much going against you. What is going against you? Tell us a bit more of what is happening in your life that you are having difficulty dealing with besides the herpes?
When it comes to herpes you can still live love laugh and be intimate. It is not the end of the world. Life will go on and you can have a normal sex life. Tell us a bit more about yourself. Are you male or female? Do you have a current partner? How were you diagnosed as having genital herpes. Was it a swab that was typed or was it a blood test? If it was an igg type specific blood test could you get a copy of the numeric test results so we can help you figure out what your status is.
Read the info in my signature line and give us more details so we can help you get through this tough time. God bless you
To tell you a bit about myself... I am a divorced 47 year old female. No children. I do not have a current partner, had not had a partner in almost 2 years. My doctor did a swab test on me.
I am the type of female that lives on affection. I have squished the heck out of my teddy bear for the last 2 years, just to have something to hold. (yes, I did type teddy bear).
To find out I have genital herpes is so difficult. Seriously, who would want someone like that? I try to always be positive, see things for the good. But how can someone see the "good" out of this?
Suicide - I won't lie and say it has not crossed my mind. Again, when that happens, I try to turn it around and see postive. I've looked into finding support groups, but the web only brings up dating sites of people with the same issue.
I will get the ebook on the books you mentioned. Or order them.
Just on a side note - I do believe in God. I have asked him over and over again....why... but you are right - he did "bless" me alright!.
I would recommend that you go back pages and pages perhaps 10 or more to read old posts where common quesstions come up over and over again.
If you have a specific question that we can ehlp you with then let us know. Life will go on and the good news is that the age you are at most guys even if they do not have GH then there prespective on life is more open to those who have problems as they may have their own problems and understand much better about life. God may have allowed this to bring you closer to him in this difficult time.
I'm in a much better state of mind. Still confused and a tiny bit angry. Looking forward to reading the books you have suggested.
With all that has happened, I realized, that I have had this virus pretty much since grade 4 when I had my first cold sore. If I can live with cold sores, I am sure I can live with gsores.
Still looking for a support group. Would prefer one that people met up for. Will keep searching on that one.
I can totally understand how you feel. I've posted on this site a few times. I found out back in March....want to talk about world spinning:( I could not wrap my brain around this. Yes, I cried. Yes, I worried. Yes, I try daily NOT to think about it. I can count on one hand how many people I've been with....I've been or should I say my doc has been my doc since I was in the single digits so I totally trust him, and he's excellent, and he knew I was not going to take the news well (and he was right)---the person I have been with since 2006 I left my doc's office and went directly to their location....just to give you some details: i went to the doc, because of pain during sex...what I thought was maybe a yeast infection turned out to be HSV2! I've never had anything type of STD,,,so I was sooo caught off guard...it was like someone had ran me over w a mack truck and I didn't even try to get out of the way! I did tell my other half...they stated they were not nor had any type of symptoms etc.....I'm provided them w/the info I had obtained from my doc...they had no insu:0.....It definitely put a strain on the relationship...as of today I don't think they have been tested....per my doc: I had been recently infected.......I understand the STD can be in ones system for yrs....I got that, but my brain, and every nerve in my body tells me (they infected me)......Prior to being w/them I had not been w/anyone in more than 10yrs...and my doc has always like I said been my doc......So, trust I know what he advised me of was the truth.....I take meds.....and like yourself I have things against me: underemployment etc....there are days tears well up in my eyes, and I just want to check out! But I pray, pray, and I pray: morning, noon, and night just to make it through....I do take meds everyday....I did stop, but I'm so stressed out w/other things going on in my life currently and that does not help the situation......I just say things will get better for me I say that all the time. I have to believe that.....as for relationship my focus is just on getting things in my life in order....anything other than that is just way over my head currently....Don't take your life....things will smooth out.....continue to pray.....this is a great site and the book they recommend is a good source of information........you can check it out at your local library........continue to visit the site it does help..
I have no intentions of taking my life. I do have too much to live for. Just at the time, like you, it is like a truck hit me.
I'm lucky I do have a job with benefits, but the job is stressful and it does not help.
I started having sleeping issues, but will conquer that.
There are so many positive posts that people have written on the site, and that is what keeps helping me.
I do turn to the site, for advice etc. I don't know anyone where I live that is in the same situation.
Take care & talk with you again.
I hate myself right now... I don't know how I can ever be with anyone again and I haven't in a year almost but, now I don't want to. I don't understand how in June I tested completly negative and have NOT had ANY contact with anyone- not so much as a kiss and now I have positive results. This is a nightmare- every month I have had issues and kept being seen.. I am a single mom who devotes everything to my child and I don't sleep around but, I know that there is a stigma that goes along with this & I feel embarassed and worthless. Please any advice to help me through would be so appreciated. I just feel like it's the end of the world right now..
This site helps me alot with trying to understand what has happened.
Focusing my thoughts and times elsewhere works too. It's so sad that as a society, we can be so judgemental on one.
Have you thought about maybe seeing a different doctor? I mean 10 months for them to finally get it right? It should not take that long I don't think. I may be wrong.
Remember, it's not the end of the world. You have a beautiful child to be with and love.
Im not sure if its the same with everyone- but, my pain is pretty much constant in my left leg, thigh, and buttocks... like all the time
I am not sure on the pain in the leg and thighs. A friend I am chatting with says when their symptoms (sp) start, they get pain in their leg.
I do not know if this is common. Has your doctor tried you on different medication?
I've sat in epsom salt baths to help relieve the pain. It helped. And to hopefully give you a little smile, I read that someone used hand sanitizer to help to.
Well, promise me you won't try that. I did. Took my breath away. Not a good suggestion.
I'm just curious, but where are you from?
Take care & chat soon.

Thread: Debate over what to do with user data stored on Megaupload after the government seized its assets
Debate over what to do with user data stored on Megaupload after the government seized its assetsMegaupload was a cyberlocker of sorts, a service that offered individuals and businesses storage space for digital files. But in January, the federal government seized most of the company's assets and charged its founders with running a criminal enterprise designed to facilitate the illegal sharing of copyright-protected movies, music and TV shows.The federal government and the MPAA contend the vast majority of the data on those servers is illegally pirated content, and that the people who stored those files with Megaupload should not get access to them.
But some of the people and small businesses that used Megaupload had perfectly legitimate files and did nothing wrong. Internet advocates, including the San Francisco-based Electronic Frontier Foundation, say a mechanism should be put in place so those users can get their data back.

COMMERCE, Okla. —
It's evident that the Commerce Tigers have confidence in their running game.
If there ever was any doubt in that statement, it was erased on the Tigers' opening possession. Facing a fourth-and-1 on its own 44-yard line, Tigers coach Steve Moss called running back Parker Morgan's number. The senior responded with a 41-yard run to keep the chains moving.
Three plays later, Commerce quarterback Blake Jameson scored on a 30-yard touchdown run to give the Tigers an early lead, en route to a 47-0 win against Quapaw on Thursday night at Tiger Field.
"We saw something that we knew would probably work," Commerce coach Steve Moss said. "We want to start a game quickly. We popped into a fourth down with a couple of mistakes. But we had something we felt confident in hitting, so we went for it and it worked out."
Class 2A's ninth-ranked Commerce (9-1) ends its regular season on a nine-game winning streak after falling 28-14 to Mount Vernon in the season opener. The Tigers will host a 2A first-round playoff game at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 9 against either Pawhuska or Caney Valley. The opponent will be determined after tonight's games.
"It feels great," Moss said. "We made enough mistakes at things I know we need to fix, but the ultimate goal is to win games, and we've done nine in a row so that feels great. But it also feels good to know that we can correct some things and play better than we are."
Any mistakes on Thursday night were easily masked by an effective running game. The Tigers ran for more than 400 yards as a team. Morgan and junior D.C. Chance combined for 229 yards in the first half. Morgan finished the game 159 yards and two touchdowns, and Chance ended with 123 yards and one touchdown as the duo was removed from the game with a 34-0 lead in the third quarter. Morgan and Chance have each rushed for more than 1,000 yards this season.
"It's great to have both of those guys," Moss said. "They run the ball extremely hard. They're not going to go down when the first guy that hits them. It's usually going to take a couple of guys to get them down. The rest of our team feeds off that."
Junior Devon Mathis and freshman Trenton Barr picked up where they left off, scoring on touchdown runs of 37 and 57 yards, respectively.
Quapaw (2-8) could never seem to get its passing attack off the ground. The Wildcats' first three drives ended with a punt, a turnover on downs and a fumble.
Sophomore quarterback Seth Brumley completed nine short passes in the first half, but Quapaw was unable to turn any of them into big plays or points.
Commerce hopes to use this win as momentum heading into the playoffs.
"The goal is to work hard and win state," Chance said.
