Several external GUIs exist as alternatives to its CLI interface, like kdar, DarGUI, SaraB, etc.
PHP Content Management System (phpCMS) makes it possible to need only one template for your whole Web site. It allows you to provide dynamic menus with unlimited levels, and use templates and sub-templates without a database. It is search engine-friendly and proxy-friendly, as the pages it generates can not be distinguished from static HTML pages. PHP code can be added to any template and content file with an optional module. It supports the caching of parsed pages and gzip compression.

Mike Trout: 6 years, $144.5 million
Trout is clearly an elite hitter already, at age 22. There is certainly no reason, on the surface, to question whether he'll be worth his recent six-year, $144.5M extension that will carry him through his age 28 season. Still, let's look into the game's past and try to identify his peer group. Does he even have one? How did they age, when did they peak, and what might the future hold for Mike Trout, and for the Angels' investment in him?
The start to Trout's career is almost ...Read More...

The Last Great Call (ESPN)
[bq]What this really was, when you think it through, was the Last Great Umpiring Call (or Calls) of the Pre-Instant Replay Era, the technology which—beginning in 2014—will permeate the lives of every umpire who ever sets foot on a major league field from now on.

Miguel Cabrera, the best hitter in baseball, will also be the best-paid player in the game when the slugger and the Detroit Tigers finalize what multiple reports say would be the biggest contract extension in baseball history based on average annual value.
Cabrera and the Tigers have agreed on an extension that would keep an Olde English "D" on Cabrera's chest through 2023. It's worth $248 million over eight years and kicks in after Cabrera finishes his old deal, which still has two ...Read More...

At 102, Oldest Living Former Major Leaguer Spends Days in Cuba
Marrero was a bright spot on a bad team. He didn't reach the majors until he was just a few days shy of 39, an age most ballplayers were well into retirement. The Washington journalist Bob Addie once wrote that Marrero "might have become a Hall of Famer had he been plucked at a younger age."
In just his fifth big league game, Marrero struck out Boston's Ted Williams with a dancing knuckleball. According to specious news accounts, he patted himself on the chest as he walked off the ...Read More...

Rock Revival Ruella Straight Stretch Jean 9 9
Very Comfy and Stylish I am tall and wear a size 31/33. These jeans are long enough and fit everywhere else. You get what you pay for. I love the jeans! They look and feel great. My husband compliments me in them which is a bonus! January 22, 2014
Only pair I've ever returned These jeans have leather stitching down the sides in the hip area that does NOT lay flat. It ripples, which is not flattering - especially in the hip area. I'm only 5'4" and 110 lbs, but felt like I was wearing apple bottoms. I even went for the 25 instead of 26 so they'd fit tighter, but that didn't help. Sorry Rock... on this one you went horribly wrong. I own around 15 pairs of Rocks of all different fits, and these are the only ones I haven't been pleased with. December 31, 2013
Favorite Jeans Ever The Rock Revival Ruella are literally my favorite jeans! I wear them all the time. Sure do wish they would make more variety of them. December 16, 2013
Rocks rock Make sure you look at the back of the legs carefully it's got fading that looking at them from far maybe only some would like. I didn't like the way the fading & coloration was on the back but I lived the front. & all the detail around the waist. & hips & seams are cool & I'll byy another pair if they make one that doesn't have that "starburst" looking marks on back. December 9, 2013
great jeans love these Rocks! My sales girl talked me into trying these and I absolutely loved the way they fit! The seams along the sides don't lay as flat as normal seams but it didn't look bad. They hold their shape well and are very comfortable. I really like the straight fit. They were plenty long enough and would look good tucked into tall boots too. September 10, 2013
Cute, but... I'm surprised to see such good comments about this pair! Before I picked them up off layaway after ordering them offline, I watched two people order them and quickly return them back to the store. And when I picked mine up I could understand why.Yes, they are stretchy. The pockets are a little small, sit a little high up. The straight leg is great, but the length is almost not long enough for a 34 inseam. My other straights I can cuff because they're a little long, but these I don't have that extra length. My biggest concern with these is the stitching/rope down the side. It's what drew me to this pair in the first place, so I was disappointment to see that it's not just wavy off the body, but on as well. It does not smooth out entirely on me, so they look wavy on my hips.I did keep these, because these flaws didn't bother me enough to return them, but for some they could be a deal breaker. July 30, 2013
Jeans Great fit, nice color fit very nicely. Don't seem to stretch out as much as a lot of the rocks. Love the straighter leg wish they would have more in the straighter leg or a smaller boot cut. July 24, 2013
So Glad I Bought Them I bought these at the Buckle store last week. The Buckle Associate talked me into trying them on - I normally wear bootcut only, but I'm so glad that I did. They fit so great! The fabric is nice and stretchy and they fit like a glove. They are so versatile - I wore them as capri's the other day. I purchased in my normal size, so they do not run big or small in my opinion. I would highly recommend these jeans! June 25, 2013

I'm running Ubuntu 11.10 (32bits) on a Dell xps m1710 with Unity as desktop env. and Nautilus as file manager. This morning I installed some recommended updates and since then the computer went nuts:
- Mozilla crashes every single time it opens
- Libreoffice closes itself and attempts to "recover" the same file over and over, even if I manage to save any file and close it before it closes itself
- Unity crashes / resets by itself randomly. Sometimes it just crashes and I need to restart it from the background terminal (alt+t wont work, and sometimes the keyboard input wont be recognized at all)
Cant really tell what is going wrong, before that the computer worked smoothly with no problems at all. Problems continue regardless of the desktop I use (I have tried Unity 2d, and Gnome, no better results) I would really appreciate any suggestion! Thanks and regards, Daniel

Swindon Robins snap up Swede Gustafsson (From This Is Wiltshire)
Latest Sport News RSS Feed
Swindon Robins snap up Swede Gustafsson
5:30am Thursday 19th December 2013 in Latest Sport News Exclusive By Andy Warren, Deputy sports editor, firstname.lastname@example.com, @AndyWarren_
SIMON Gustafsson is convinced a change of scene will do him good after penning a deal to ride for Swindon in 2014.
The Swede has only ridden for Eastbourne since beginning his British career in 2007, but is now set for a fresh challenge at the Abbey Stadium after joining the club on a 5.17 average.
Gustafsson scored 10+1 at Blunsdon for the Eagles last season, and 7+1 on both his previous visits in 2011, and while he admitted the track is not a particular favourite of his the 23-year-old is pleased to have the chance to make an impression at a new club.
"I'm looking forward to it although I said before I would stay at Eastbourne if I stayed in England, but Rosco has offered me a great chance and I'm really pleased to move to a club like Swindon," he said.
"I think I needed a change having been at Eastbourne so long and I'm looking forward to it. It's not my favourite track particularly but I seem to go good round there.
"I've never ridden with any of the other riders before so I want to get to know them and get a good team spirit and try to take back the title. We all want to be part of a winning team because that's a huge part of sport and I'm really up for it."
Robins team manager Alun Rossiter is pleased with his new recruit, having previously ridden alongside Gustafsson's father Henka, and has backed the Swede to be a success in his new surroundings.
"I always look for a rider who has more to come and with no disrespect to Eastbourne he's stagnated a bit, even Trevor Geer (Eastbourne team manager) has said that.
"I've seen Simon blast around the outside of Leigh Adams at Swindon and he won a couple of races against us this year, so I just think he has something about him and needs a new challenge.
"Sometimes you can be at a club and sit comfortable, so this is a good chance for him to kick on.
"He's very laid back and a likeable character, so he should fit in fine.
"I raced with his dad Henka at King's Lynn and I remember watching Simon on a bike at a World Under 21 meeting and thinking he was he spitting image of his dad.
"He's young still and this fresh challenge will help him improve, so I'm really excited about it."
Gustaffsson joins new skipper Troy Batchelor, number one Peter Kildemand and Aussie Nick Morris in the main body of the Robins side, with 4.47 for the fifth and final member.

Buy pink? Not so fast!
by Susan Bach, Director of Communications, Wisconsin BBB
If you're like me, you've been watching a lot of football lately and have noticed all of the pink gloves, cleats and other accessories that NFL players have been wearing in October to help promote Breast Cancer Awareness Month. It's hard NOT to notice when a 300-pound football player is wearing hot pink shoes! I applaud the NFL, and hope it makes a lot of money when it auctions off those items – since I know that all of the proceeds will benefit the American Cancer Society.
Black suits, black portfolios in hand (how much is your portfolio worth, sir?), neatly knotted ties, they walk (very erect) into a black building forty or fifty stories tall (how do you count stories when you're at the bottom?).
And across from those forty or fifty stories, are the real stories, not the confabulations, the stories of the humans, not of the corps, the stories of the thousands who struggle, some of whom starve while the forty of fifty stories stock up on stock, rake in assets as they set on their asses. If the 99% turn into corpses, and the 1% survive, what stories would the corporations have to tell, to what customers would the corporations sell?
Messmer/Shorewood wins injunction; only Divisions 3-7 brackets will be released today
Judge Kevin Martens granted the Milwaukee Messmer/Shorewood football team a temporary injunction that will prevent the football playoff brackets for Divisions 1 and 2 from being released until Tuesday at the earliest.
Both Messmer/Shorewood and the WIAA, however, agreed to the release of the pairings for the other divisions.
The play's the thing. We see where life leads and run with it, see where our onion lands and play along. As in PLEASE PLAY. That's a short short, filmed and edited by Kathy Fischer, which features 7 or 8 Rosenblatts (Adolph has genie rather than genius status), Genevieve Leplae, John Gourdoux, Artasia, Rosenblatt Gallery, sculptures, buddhas, Japanese bath tubs, and a red onion.
You can see it this Thursday, Oct 20, 7 PM, at the Times Cinema, along with my short short DANCERS and other short shorts by local filmmakers. I made DANCERS several years ago, well before digital, high def, whatever else is current. I chose dozens of my dancer drawings and paintings, assigned each a number, listed them in the order I wanted them filmed, and added the number of frames for each artwork. Weeks later, film scraps on the editing room floor, I was ready to add Sigmund Snopek's music.

Halloween on the Cheap
By Sheila Julson
Wisconsin Better Business Bureau
Whether it's a last-minute invite to a Halloween party, or just procrastination, coming up with a quick and reasonably-priced Halloween costume can leave one in horror. Come late October, a trip to the store will often lead to all the good costumes being picked over, leaving one with a choice of parading around as last year's Hollywood blockbuster character, or cobbling together mismatched costume pieces discarded on the shelves. Even the fun props and fake blood have been snapped up.

The Drum acknowledges this story could have been handled better, and would like to thank our commentators who have collectively done a great job in explaining the context. However, our handling would have been different if only Marketing Manchester had commented when we were writing the original story - as we invited them to do. And of course the fact remains these comments were indeed made, and did raise eyebrows amongst at least some of those who attended. Even in jest, it was an extraordinary thing to say.

The Scottish Review was perhaps a little over-confident on the Shirley Temple front. The actress, aged 83, is alive and well and no doubt as litgious as ever.

Flipkart Service: Ordered on day 'n' and got it on day 'n 4' prompt service, competitive/attractive price on flipkart, good/simple and hassle free service/ordering.
About the Bag: Despite its schoolbag type looks/outlines, in real it looked like non-schoolbag, non-flashy, conservative, professional with plush/premium finish/feel and trendy, build quality feels solid yet light weight. Yet to put bag into use, but feels like great great! buy
thanks and happy diwali to flipkart, and to you all
I have purchased this bag in Dec 2012 in another website at around 1700INR after using ruggedly for 6 months the bag started developing some tears and discolourization,so i decided not to touch Targus once again to burn my pocket then i have ordered Samsonite Albi model as backup which is far more superior interms of built and ruggedness.
When we compare,Targus has got good number compartments over Samsonite,Samsonite definitely leads the race against Targus for rough usage,built quality and design,Targus material looks like some cheap quality material which doesn't withstand rough usage.service wise i got replacement product from Targus India which is a appreciable within 5 days of complaint lodged by E-mail.
My suggestion if you want to spend little more bugs try for a good model not this Pulse model which is a regular troubleshooter.
For now I'll just give a short review, and later, after using for 6 months or so, will put up a more detailed review. This bag is extremely comfortable on shoulders; nothing I've used ever before comes close to this one in terms of ergonomics. This experience, when in fact, I've added more stuff in this than what I used to carry so far. I even keep my cell plastic lunch box [also purchased from flipkart] inside this, and yet it is very light. There are lots and lots of pockets in it and all that you can think of keeping in a laptop backpack can be kept it this. Has a rather matte finish sort of look but very tough build.
A bit costly but I think it's worth it. Like I said above, will post a more detailed review after 6-8 months of usage.
I have been this bag for 20 months now and it is really worth the price. I carry this daily to my office and during any travel. I have been using it really rough and still no wear and tear. A lot of space apart from keeping laptop. I has a pouch on its belt to keep small phones and other stuffs, extra pouch to keep head phone, charges and other small stuffs.
There are 3 main compartments. The middle compartment has additional compartment inside it.
Apart from this there is provision to keep bottles on either sides.
Over all very spacious, sturdy and good purchase !!!
Thanks to Flipkart for nicely packing and delivering it with 2 days of purchase. Totally satisfied with the service.
I'm living in Allahabad. I ordered this bag on Wednesday and received on Friday within 48 hours. Means a great and fast service by Flipkart.
About Targus bag, It looks great. Quality of material is also good. Inside part of bag is all black. No fancy material/design like you can see in Targus Incognito. Many small pockets inside front pocket.
I am using this bag for my 13"Macbook Pro. So it is little bit big but I'm satisfied because on flipkart all bag size is 15.6".
Everything is good but price of this bag is little bit high so i am giving only 4 star to this professional bag.
This bag is fantastic and right choice if you buy it considering it as a compact bag and not a suitcase where in you put an enc...Read More

An updated version of the Halton Parenting Directory was released recently to provide parents and other caregivers information on more than 130 parenting programs, workshops, support, services and other learning opportunities.
The directory, which is produced by Our Kids Network, is available online at www.ourkidsnetwork.ca. Hard copies will also be delivered to families through the school boards and community agencies in the new year.
"The Halton Parenting Directory provides parents and caregivers with information on programs to enhance their parenting knowledge and skills," said Elena DiBattista, director of Our Kids Network. "This issue also has information about the 'Family Assets' the everyday things families do to be strong, both in the good times and in the challenging times. These assets, or actions, can make a significant difference in the positive development of our children and youth."
The directory lists a range of programs, workshops and seminars for expectant parents to discussion groups for parents of teens.
Although the programs are primarily geared to strengthening and enhancing parenting knowledge and skills, there are some listings for children and youth workshops and courses. ?It also reveals 20 years of groundbreaking research on developmental assets.
The study shows that children from families with more assets are more likely to engage in learning at school and develop close relationships with others, and are less likely to take part in riskier behaviours.
Family members can learn more about family assets in the directory or at Our Kids Network's website.
Our Kids Network is a group comprised of leaders from education, government, health, mental health, special needs, police services and the multicultural community.
Its goal is to promote healthy development, security and safety of all children, youth and families through neighbourhood collaboration, service integration and measuring results.
The Halton Parenting Directory is issued twice annually in January and September.

Crawdaunt was never a very good Pokemon in past generations. It had strong STABs and a high base Attack, but its pathetic base 55 Speed stat kept it from doing pretty much anything useful. However, its first ray of light came when it obtained Dragon Dance as an HGSS Egg move. This allowed Crawdaunt to finally raise its Speed and possibly even attempt a sweep. Although the power of the metagame around it has risen dramatically, Crawdaunt has only improved in the shift to BW. It received the Adaptability ability from the Dream World, raising its STAB modifier from 1.5x to 2x. Combined with the excellent coverage of Water- and Dark-type STABs, Crawdaunt now has the raw power to smash through many teams in UU after a Dragon Dance. Although Feraligatr might seem to outclass Crawdaunt in a sweeping role, Crawdaunt boasts a secondary Dark-type STAB to dispose of walls. However, Crawdaunt still has its fair share of problems on the defensive side. Its paper-thin defenses mean that priority moves spell trouble for our dancing lobster friend, especially considering that Crawdaunt's secondary Dark typing give it a weakness to Mach Punch and Vacuum Wave. In addition, even after a Dragon Dance, Crawdaunt can be revenge killed by fast Pokemon thanks to its abysmal Speed. Overall, if you need a sweeper for a UU team, it's always worth giving Crawdaunt a look.
This set makes use of the move Dragon Dance to raise Crawdaunt's Speed and Attack. After one boost, it outspeeds Pokemon with a base Speed of 105 and reaches 508 Attack, enabling it to break through many UU teams. Coupled with Crawdaunt's excellent dual 160 Base Power STABs, this crustacean will have very few troubles sweeping given the proper support.
The moves employed on this set are fairly straightforward. Dragon Dance is the basis of the set, boosting Crawdaunt's Attack and Speed to prime it for a sweep. Waterfall and Crunch are Crawdaunt's main attacks, with their awesome combined coverage capable of hitting almost every Pokemon in UU for neutral damage. However, the last slot is a much more difficult choice to make. Superpower is the primary option, enabling Crawdaunt to massacre Ferroseed and Empoleon, which would otherwise wall it. However, Taunt shuts down walls and prevents them from hitting Crawdaunt with a crippling status effect or setting up hazards or stat boosts. Substitute also stops Crawdaunt from being affected by status, and has the added bonus of allowing Crawdaunt to scout for moves its opponent may be able to stop it with.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Other Options
While there are a few other sets that Crawdaunt can employ, most of them fall flat due to its terrible Speed. A Choice Band set can be used for huge power immediately, but unlike the Dragon Dance set it can't switch moves and is revenged very easily since it has no way to boost its Speed. Swords Dance gives Crawdaunt simply massive power. Almost nothing in UU can avoid an OHKO from a Crawdaunt with +2 Attack. However, it also suffers from the problem of having awful Speed, allowing it to be easily revenge killed.
Checks and Counters
Priority is an excellent way of checking Crawdaunt due to its awful defenses. Hitmontop is amazingly adept at this, OHKOing Crawdaunt with a STAB Mach Punch and even packing Intimidate to cushion the blow on its way in. While Arcanine can pick off weakened Crawdaunt with ExtremeSpeed, if the lobster is still in good health, it can take the hit and massacre Arcanine with a STAB Water-type attack. Even after one Dragon Dance, Raikou and Azelf that run Speed-boosting natures outspeed Crawdaunt and can easily OHKO it with Electric- and Grass-type moves. If Crawdaunt does not use Superpower, Ferroseed and Empoleon can soak up anything that Crawdaunt can throw at them easily. In addition, Tangrowth can take a boosted Crunch easily and retaliate with a STAB Grass-type move. Lastly, the extremely rare Poliwrath takes negligible damage from anything Crawdaunt can do and phazes it out with STAB Circle Throw.

Four Home Runs, Starck's Pitching Propels Valpo Past Illinois Tech
Friday, April 16, 2004Valparaiso, Ind. - Eddie Hannan belted two home runs and had five RBIs and Tom Starck recorded a career-high 13 strikeouts as Valpo defeated Illinois Tech 20-1. The Crusaders finished with 21 hits, including four home runs -three of which were three-run shots. Valpo outscored its opponents 40-1 over the last two days (defeated Lewis 20-0 Thursday).
Hannan, Valpo's lone senior in the everyday lineup, broke a scoreless tie in the second with a two-run opposite-field blast over the right field wall. The second baseman hit his team-leading fifth homer of the season - a three-run shot - as part of a six-run, fifth inning. Hannan has nine RBIs over the last two games.
The Crusaders (9-20), who had 16 of their hits in innings five through seven, followed with six-run innings in both the sixth and seventh frames. Freshman Colin Reynolds hit a long three-run homer - the first of his career - over the right field fence in the sixth. Another freshman, Ryan Manthei, belted Valpo's third three-run roundtripper to key the seventh-inning uprising.
Josh Piazza, a freshman, produced three doubles (2 RBIs) in consecutive at bats. Manthei also finished with three hits, while Kevin Kutansky (2 hits) and Kevin Perri added two RBIs. Mike Arensdorff also tallied two hits as 13 Crusaders hit safely for the second straight game.
Starck (3-5) hurled 7 strong innings, allowing one run on three hits and six walks. His 13 strikeouts surpassed his previous career-high of 12 achieved twice last season. The senior lefty has recorded 57 strikeouts in 46 2/3 innings this season. Adam Knobel pitched hitless and scoreless ball over the final 2 innings.
Illinois Tech (13-19) scored its run in the fifth on Mario Urquizo's RBI double to trim Valpo's lead to 2-1. Starter B.J. Froehlich suffered the loss, allowing six runs on eight hits, while striking out one and walking none. The Scarlet Hawks used four pitchers.
After having a bye weekend in the Mid-Continent Conference, Valpo will host Northwestern on Tuesday at 3 p.m.
