February 11, 2006 by Jeff Schroeder
COLUMBIA, S.C. - En route to setting four new tour weight records, the top pro finalists put on one of the most amazing big-bass displays the Wal-Mart FLW Tour has ever seen Saturday. Emerging from the Lake Murray parade of bass after bass weighing 7 and 8 pounds was South Carolina's own Anthony Gagliardi, who tallied a final-round record weight of 47 pounds, 4 ounces to win $200,000 at the 2006 Chevy Open.
This was a good one, folks. Gagliardi's 47-4 broke Steve Kennedy's previous record - set in the modern era of the two-day final round - with immense help from the five-bass limit he caught Saturday, which weighed 28-4 and became the fifth-heaviest single-day stringer in FLW Tour history.
And that wasn't even the heaviest sack of the day.
That honor belonged to Tim Carroll, who, if only he'd landed a limit Friday instead of just three fish, might have stolen the show from the hometown favorite. Carroll caught a new FLW Tour single-day record weight of 30 pounds, 15 ounces Saturday, besting Jeff Coble's longstanding mark of 29-6 caught at Santee Cooper lakes in 1996.
Then there was Brennan Bosley, who pounded out his third limit over 20 pounds in three days - 24-13 - and grabbed his first $100,000 check for finishing second with a final weight of 45-12.
While Gagliardi's weight topped them all, all three of them - Gagliardi, Bosley and Carroll, who totaled 45 pounds, 10 ounces in the finals - broke Kennedy's previous record of 44-14, set at Kentucky Lake in 2003, for heaviest weight in the FLW's two-day final-round era. And - fishing through relentless rain, cold and wind Saturday - they each did it on one of the most miserable days of fishing they'll likely see all year.
Not only that, Lake Murray already holds the FLW Tour record for opening-round weight - 49 pounds, 8 ounces - which was set by Darrel Robertson in 2003.
Simply put, this bass fishery puts on quite a show.
"That's truly a testament to this lake more so than it is to me," Gagliardi said. "What we saw here today shows you what this lake is capable of, not just in the numbers of fish it has, but in their size."
Hometown hero
The star of the show, of course, was Gagliardi. The crowd showed up in force to support its hometown favorite from nearby Prosperity, S.C., and it was handsomely rewarded by Gagliardi's record-setting performance.
It was the second FLW Tour victory for the 28-year-old pro, who now has well over a half-million dollars in FLW Outdoors career earnings. His first victory came at Kentucky Lake in 2004 - coincidentally, another tournament where he outfished out Bosley on the final day. But, to take a big one on his home lake, there was no doubt which win was sweeter for Gagliardi.
"Kentucky Lake was my first win, but there is no comparison," he said. "All those big fish coming out of the livewells at the same time today had my nerves worked up. To break the final-round weight record and win the tournament at the same time is an amazing feeling."
Nervous at weigh-in, maybe, but he was as cool as they come on the water. Gagliardi keyed on a deepwater bass bite all week long. Mostly, he threw a 1/2-ounce All-Terrain jig at deep rock piles on secondary points leading into creeks, fishing anywhere from 18 to 30 feet of water. Friday, however, he discovered some bigger fish holding on brush piles, so he focused on those Saturday and landed his two biggest fish. But he also caught his other three keepers Saturday on a crankbait, a chartreuse-and-root beer Brian's Bee B10, in shallower water down to 10 feet.
"In a way, this was a lot like Kentucky Lake. I knew exactly what I wanted to do when I got here," Gagliardi said. "I planned on dedicating my practice to fishing deep."
Still, the winner only culled one fish today, so it wasn't like he was reeling in the numbers. This tournament, maybe more than any other, was more about the quality of fish than quantity.
"Kentucky Lake was a different kind of tournament. That one was all about consistency and trying to catch a good limit every day," he said. "At this one, I knew we were going to have to bust a really big bag to do well."
Bosley impressive, impressed
Bosley, who finished seventh at the 2004 Kentucky Lake event - his only other top-10 showing on the FLW Tour - stuck to his Flat A Bomber crankbait pattern to catch his 24-pound, 13-ounce limit Saturday.
"I fished the lower end of the lake all through practice and the tournament," the pro from Benton, Ark., said. "I have a lot of confidence in cold, clear water, maybe because I'm so used to Beaver (Lake, in Arkansas). All my damage today was done right down by the dam on about four or five points. This was totally a pattern tournament for me."
Bosley ran a shallower rock-pile pattern, plying the bank between piles to crank up one 5- to 8-pounder after another.
"This place has more big fish than any lake I've ever been to," he said. "Right now, it has the hottest bass fishing than any other lake in the world."
Carroll third, wonders what if
Taking home $50,000 for third place was Carroll, who hails from Owasso, Okla.
The opening-round leader stuck to his deepwater jig pattern and might have set some really mean records if not for two lost fish on Friday. The first three days, Carroll caught three different bass weighing more than 9 pounds, and Saturday his kicker again was the biggest of the day at 8-9. But it was Friday and his three-bass weight of 14-11 that ultimately put him behind the eight-ball.
"It killed me," he said. "I did go for big fish, and it was a lost opportunity yesterday. I had two big fish pull off, and I just missed another one. But that's just part of this game. It's going to be hard to top this one."
Still, Carroll did take some solace in his record-setting weight Saturday. He said that, even when he knew he had close to 30 pounds in his livewell, he kept fishing to try and cull out his smallest bass, a 4 1/2-pounder, with another 8-pounder.
"Yeah, that's almost unheard of," he said. "I knew it was going to be a shootout, a close one. I knew the other guys would probably bring in more than 20 pounds. So even when I had 30, I still needed another one."
Wolak fourth, Kindy fifth
After the top three big guns, the weights dropped off significantly in the final round.
David Wolak of Warrior Run, Pa., posted his first FLW Tour top-10 finish in fourth place with a final weight of 25 pounds, 1 ounce. He earned $40,000.
"The fishing's been great for me," he said. "I don't know the lake as well as some of the other guys, so I just kind of put a little milk run together."
Jeremiah Kindy of Benton, Ark., finished fifth and collected $30,000 with a final weight of 21 pounds, 12 ounces.
"I've never had a practice like this in my entire life," said Kindy, who mainly fished a Flat A Bomber crankbait on rocks and transitions. "I caught 10(-pounders), 12s and all kinds of 6s. It's just crazy."
Rest of the best
Rounding out the top 10 pro finishers at FLW Tour Chevy Open at Lake Murray:
6th: Clifford Pirch, Payson, Ariz., 21-1, $28,000
7th: David Smith, Del City, Okla., 18-13, $26,000
8th: Matt Herren, Trussville, Ala., 18-11, $24,000
9th: Katsutoshi Furusawa, Tokyo, Japan, 12-12, $22,000
10th: Terry Segraves, Kissimmee, Fla., 7-5, $20,000
Standings update
With a pair of top-15 finishes in the opening two tournaments, Ralph Lester Jr. of Lees Summit, Mo., took over the lead in the Pro Division standings with 378 points.
Gagliardi, who finished 30th at Lake Okeechobee, moved up to second with 371 points.
Coming up

Mexican authorities say two female journalists were found murdered south of Mexico City Thursday.They say the women's bodies were found in a park in Iztapalapa, south of the capital.One victim is Ana Maria Marcela Yarce Viveros, founder of investigative magazine Contralinea.The second, is Rocio Gonzalez, who used to work for broadcaster Televisa. Reuters news agency says a Contralinea spokesman says both women were naked with their hands and feet tied.Authorities believe they were strangled, but the exact cause of death has not been released.Dozens of journalists have been killed in drug related violence in Mexico in the past five years, but investigators have not given a motive for the murders of the women. More than 40,000 people have been killed in drug related violence in Mexico since President Felip Calderon launched a national crack down on drug cartels in 2006.
Some information for this report was provided by AFP and Reuters.

I wanted the following:
Gallery2 -> through WPG2 ---> WordPress 2.6!
But i can't install the latest Gallery2 because my PHP SAFE_MODE is ON!
So I installed a patched gallery2, 2.1 BlackJack (i think).
This resulted in that I couldn't install the latest WPG2, it didn't match with 2.1 BlackJack, so I installed 2.13 instead!
I know how the WPG2 2.3 work, there you get a "Gallery"-Page, simple.
But I don't get that in 2.13, so now I have this super-ultra-basic-question: How do I use WPG2 2.13? where is my gallery-page?

Basically I went in for a scheduled non stress test yesterday which was tuesday. The nurse asked did I go to my ultrasound appointment...I wasn't aware of any ultrasound. Anywho after putting me on the monitors and checking my pressure she sent me straight to radiology to get my ultrasound. Within minutes I knew something was up because the tech started to whisper to her associate and I could see clear as day that there wasn't much fluid around the LO. I was sent back to testing where the nurse informed me that I was going to have my c-section. Well two nurses rolled me up to L&D...started my IV...got my mom a pair of scrubs and rolled me into the OR. Everything went well I was so numb that I couldn't even feel my face.
Jaidyn Joelle Davis was born February 16th at 7:49pm. She weighed in at 5lbs 7oz and she's 18 inches long. She came out crying and was whisked away to the NICU. She stayed in for six hours it would've been shorter but she took a while to regulate her temperature. She was transferred from the NICU to the regular nursery this morning. I called to have her sent to my room. She's the most beautiful baby i've ever seen. Can't believe she's here already,,,

Also I see an issue with multiple galleries. In my case I have jquery tabs enabled and I want a gallery inside each tab but that is causing issues with the ids repeating themselves, I suggest that you fix that, because it may be neccesary to call two galleries in the same page like in my case.

No one loves the cold quite like Canada does!
Canadian Tire is an automotive company based in Canada which set out to test its newest cold weather battery by installing it into a truck made completely out of ice.
I went out for lunch today to get my usual Teriyaki Bowl from Freshii and I walked past the Silverline Stop in downtown Grand Rapids. I started to notice these colorful scarves tied around light posts downtown.
Upon closer inspection, a smile graced my face.
Remember that snowstorm we had in January?
Well, the Super Bowl Sunday-Groundhog Day snowstorm was just as bad with gusting winds, sub-zero wind chills and plenty of snow.
Snowfall totals from the snowstorm hitting greater Grand Rapids and West Michigan in some locales piled up more than a foot of the white, fluffy stuff, according to the National Weather Service's Grand Rapids Office.
It's getting to be that time again, where everyone around you becomes a walking pustule of disease-spreading evil. Or, as most people call it, cold and flu season.
There are apparently ways to prevent getting sick, but the host of this video has failed at using them. This doesn't mean that his information is useless to us healthy people, though.
Welcome back to winter, with snowfall totals from the snowstorm plowing into greater Grand Rapids and West Michigan piling up more than a foot of the white, fluffy stuff, according to the National Weather Service's Grand Rapids Office.
Plus, more -- 2 to four inches is being forecast -- is coming along with wind chills below zero degrees, gusting winds up to 30 miles per hour and blowing and drifting snow making travel hazardous with a winter storm warning in effect until this afternoon.
Winter is blasting in in an even bigger way.
The National Weather Service's Grand Rapids Office has issued a winter storm warning for this afternoon through Friday afternoon, calling the wintry blast coming our way in greater Grand Rapids and West Michigan as "significant."
Basically, more than a foot of snow is possible with heavy snow beginning about 2 p.m. EST and continuing through Friday. Wind gusts are forecast to be up to 45 miles per hour, with blowing and drifting snow and wind chills of 10 degrees below zero.
After last winter, many us are approaching this winter with caution.
Today probably didn't help: snow on Halloween?
The National Weather Service's winter weather forecast is out. All we can say is make sure those snow blowers and shovels are ready if you live, work and/or play -- not to mention drive or travel -- between U.S. 131 and the Lake Michigan shore in greater Grand Rapids and West Michigan.
I was running yesterday, and when I took off my phone had 60 percent battery power left.
When I got done running, it only had 1 percent power and consequently shut off. WTF?! I didn't even run that far.
My frozen phone was suffering from side effects from the extreme cold.
With insanely cold weather gripping the majority of the United States and Canada, people are being forced to come up with alternate means of entertainment.
It's no secret that it's really cold across the majority of the country.
We've seen videos of people throwing boiling water in the air to see if it would instantly freeze, and a video of a guy jumping on a frozen trampoline.
Good morning. Welcome to the artic. You've been officially temporarily moved to a polar region.
Michigan and the Midwest are stuck in a polar vortex, according to the National Weather Service's Grand Rapids Office. Typically, such an arctic blast -- or wintry hurricane -- only hits northeastern Canada a la Ontario, Quebec and regions further north.

Why did God Pick Mary to Be Jesus's Mother?
Why did God choose Mary to be Jesus's mother? I know she was a good person, but there were a lot of other good women around at that time too. So why Mary? --- Lauren, age 10
That's a good question. When she was chosen, Mary was an ordinary teenaged girl. She hadn't won any beauty contests. She'd never gotten the trophy for best speller. She didn't even have a Nobel Prize.
So why Mary and not someone else? Mary was special because she possessed the qualities God wanted in the mother of his Son: Courage, willingness, and love for God.
Why these particular traits?

Teen retailer American Eagle opened its tech center in San Francisco in July. The 10,000-square-foot location is filled with movable desks to encourage spontaneous brainstorming sessions among its 20 workers. The goal: to get to know more about American Eagle's customers.
Among its projects is an effort to consolidate the personal data of American Eagle customers, including their shopping history, from the company's email campaigns and loyalty programs. The retailer wants to gain information that would help it better target its marketing around a customer's buying habits.
Executives at American Eagle, which is based in Pittsburgh, say that's just the beginning of the types of technology that could come out of its Silicon Valley center. Joe Megibow, a senior vice president and director of American Eagle's tech center, says he envisions a future when customers can go into the store and have the clerk pull up information on a tablet, such as the shopper's email address and buying history.
Target's focus at its 5,000 square foot office in the historic Folgers Coffee Co. building is more futuristic. The lab, which opened with 20 workers in May, is looking at how wearable gadgets like smart watches — computerized watches that communicate with smartphones — can be used in its stores.
Additionally, Target, which is based in Minneapolis, is experimenting with a mobile app feature that would allow customers to call up information like whether certain cereal is gluten-free by taking a photo of the box with their cellphone camera.
None of the projects at Target's lab have made it to shoppers yet, but David Newman, director of the center, says the goal is to test "the unexplored and underexplored."

Abu Dhabi Oil Incumbents Stand 'Good Chance' of Winning Renewals
The largest U.S. and European oil companies have a "good chance" of winning renewals for Abu Dhabi crude-oil concessions, according to United Arab Emirates Energy Minister Suhail Mohammed Al-Mazrouei.
"Unless they aren't aggressive in giving us value, I think they will have a very good chance," the minister told reporters today at an oil conference in Paris. "They are the best in understanding the field because they have been there for 70 years and we hope they will be among the winners."
Exxon Mobil Corp., BP Plc, Royal Dutch Shell Plc and Total SA lost their rights as shareholders in the company operating Abu Dhabi's onshore oil fields after their joint venture expired at the start of the year. The expired partnership between the international companies and state-run Abu Dhabi National Oil Co., or Adnoc, accounted for about 1.5 million barrels a day of Murban crude, the U.A.E.'s main blend.
Adnoc took full control of the unit operating the fields while completing a bidding process to award new concessions. The minister today didn't give a timeframe for when a decision would be reached.
"No one is guaranteed a seat," he said. "It's a bidding. We wish everyone good luck, especially our legacy partners."
The end of an accord accounting for more than half of the output from OPEC's fourth-largest supplier weakened at least temporarily the role of international companies in the group as member nations seek to retain more oil wealth.
Most Reserves
Abu Dhabi holds most of the reserves in the U.A.E., which pumped 2.8 million barrels a day in March, or 9.3 percent of oil supplied by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, according to data from the International Energy Agency.
Abu Dhabi pumped oil from its onshore fields under concession deals with Exxon, Shell, Total, BP and Portugal's Partex Oil & Gas, or their predecessors, that have been in effect since January 1939. Adnoc became a partner in the 1970s, forming Abu Dhabi Co. for Onshore Oil Operations, or ADCO, in which the five foreign partners held a 40 percent stake.

I feel this is not a very good question to post on SO, but I need some advice from experienced developers... (I'm a second year developer)
I guess this is a problem to many, many projects, but in our case, it is getting intense. There were very strong interference from the management, that our development was severely impacted.
Now we were happily producing results, but then I get a request for a "meeting".I have a friendly relationship with them, but I feel very daunted at the thought of talking about it all over again.
What would you do if you were in this situation?

Common Health Tests (cont.)
Screening for Prostate and Testicular Cancers
Prostate cancer: Screening for prostate cancer is a subject of debate among doctors. It is not yet completely clear that screening is cost effective or saves significant numbers of lives. It is also not completely clear what the best screening test is. In general, the following recommendations could be made.
Testicular cancer: Cancer of the testis represents the most common type of cancer in males between 25 and 40 years of age. The risk of the disease is increased if the man has undescended testes. Some doctors have advocated for an annual screening test or examination of the testes by a doctor. Others have suggested an educational campaign for men along the same lines as the breast self-examination guidelines for women.

Mitsubishi's smallest crossover is also the runt of the compact crossover class. The 2014 Outlander Sport is several inches shorter than competitors such as the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4, so it offers much less legroom. This was a big issue when installing child-safety seats, but it wasn't the only problem. Awkward top tether anchor placement also made installing the forward-facing convertible difficult.
How many car seats fit in the second row? Two
What We Like
What We Don't
Grading Scale
A: Plenty of room for the car seat and the child; doesn't impact driver or front-passenger legroom. Easy to find and connect to Latch and tether anchors. No fit issues involving head restraint or seat contouring. Easy access to the third row.
B: Plenty of room. One fit or connection issue. Some problems accessing third row when available.
C: Marginal room. Two fit or connection issues. Difficult to access third row when available.
D: Insufficient room. Two or more fit or connection issues.
F: Does not fit or is unsafe.
About Cars.com's Car Seat Checks
Editors Jennifer Geiger and Jennifer Newman are certified child safety seat installation technicians.
For the Car Seat Check, we use a Graco SnugRide 30 infant-safety seat, a Britax Marathon convertible seat and Graco TurboBooster seat. The front seats are adjusted for a 6-foot driver and a 5-foot-8 passenger. The three child seats are installed in the second row. The booster seat sits behind the driver's seat, and the infant and convertible seats are installed behind the front passenger seat.
We also install the forward-facing convertible in the second row's middle seat with the booster and infant seat in the outboard seats to see if three car seats will fit; a child sitting in the booster seat must be able to reach the seat belt buckle. If there's a third row, we install the booster seat and a forward-facing convertible. To learn more about how we conduct our Car Seat Checks, go here.
Parents should also remember that they can use the Latch system or a seat belt to install a car seat, and that Latch anchors have a weight limit of 65 pounds, including the weight of the child and the weight of the seat itself.

AbstractReducing reverberation noise, and increasing resolution drive the ability to detect, and classify underwater mines in a shallow littoral environment. This proposal addresses the problem with an analysis of reverberation noise from recorded sea tests, adaptive beamforming (ABF), and adaptive direction of arrival estimation (ADOA). In the reverberation noise analysis phase, the primary focus will be on the stationarity of the statistics of the noise to determine how quickly the noise statistics change. This will lead to an ABF algorithm requirement that the chosen algorithm adapt as quickly as warranted by the reverberation analysis. Several reduced rank solutions will be tested to determine convergence and array gain. To further improve resolution, several ADOA algorithms will be tested on the real and simulated data. This will lead to high resolution image that can be tested for detection of mine-like features. All this will be performed in software. Timing, and sizing requirements for major software components will be generated in a COTS platform to determine software, and hardware requirements. In the option phase of the proposal, the chosen algorithms will be upgraded to a real time platform.

TUSCALOOSA, AL – SEPTEMBER 21: Head coach Nick Saban of the Alabama Crimson Tide shakes hands with head coach Jim McElwain of the Colorado State Rams after their 31-6 win at Bryant-Denny Stadium on September 21, 2013 in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. (Photo by Kevin C. Cox/Getty Images)
Tulane losing QB Devin Powell to transfer
Being buried on the depth chart will ofttimes lead a player to move on and search for playing time elsewhere, and that's what appears to be happening to the quarterback position at Tulane.
According to a report from the New Orleans Times-Picayune, the newspaper has learned that Devin Powell has decided to transfer out of the Green Wave football program. It also appears a destination for the redshirt season is known: Nicholls State.
As the Colonels play at the FCS level, Powell would be able to play immediately in what will be his final season of collegiate eligibility.
For what it's worth, Tulane officials have yet to address Powell's status with the team moving forward.
Over the past four seasons, Powell started four games. He finished his Green Wave career by completing 51 percent of his passes (116-229) for 1,204 yards, seven touchdowns and eight interceptions. The New Orleans product also rushed for minus-43 yards on 42 carries, and was sacked 21 times.
According to the Times-Picayune, Powell exited the spring third on the Green Wave's depth chart.
San Diego State RB Marcus Stamps 'probably' sidelined for all of 2016
The bad news for San Diego State is that its backfield has taken a hit. The good news? They still have Donnell Pumphrey.
On the negative front, head coach Rocky Long indicated that, more than likely, Marcus Stamps will miss the entire 2016 season. The redshirt junior running back recently underwent surgery on his back, the nature of which wasn't specified by the coach.
"He won't be back this season, probably," Long said according to the San Diego Union-Tribune. "He felt something in his back during spring practice. They kept checking him out, then they suggested he get it operated on."
Stamps played in the first eight games of the 2015 season before a knee injury essentially sidelined him the the remaining three regular season games plus two in the postseason — the Mountain West Championship game and Hawaii Bowl. During the time he was healthy, Stamps ran for 33 yards on 16 carries.
As long as Pumphrey is healthy, though, the Aztecs' running game should be in fine shape.
Pumphrey's 1,651 yards rushing were seventh nationally last year. Entering his senior season, Pumphrey needs just 318 yards to surpass Marshall Faulk (4,589 from 1991-93) for the most in school history.
Ex-Alabama LB Christian Bell announces transfer to Wisconsin
In last year's opener, Christian Bell suited up for Alabama in their opener against Wisconsin. For this year's opener, he'll be on that Big Ten team's sideline as they take on yet another school from the SEC.
On his Twitter account Thursday, Bell announced that he has decided to transfer into the Wisconsin football program. Over this past weekend, the linebacker announced via the same social media site that he would be transferring from the Tide.
I am extremely blessed to say that im committed to the university of Wisconsin!! #OnWisconsin pic.twitter.com/jGRfkmiekV
— Christian Bell (@BELL_ringerr) July 28, 2016
Barring the unexpected, Bell will be forced to sit out the 2016 season and thus won't be in uniform when UW opens against LSU at Lambeau Field. Then beginning in 2017, though, he would have four seasons of eligibility remaining.
Bell took a "grayshirt" for the 2015 season, ultimately enrolling in classes at UA this past January. The Birmingham, Ala., native participated in spring practice with the Tide this year.
A three-star recruit according to 247Sports.com, Bell was rated as the No. 19 weakside defensive end in the country and the No. 17 player at any position in the state of Alabama.
WVU's Larry Jefferson arrested on drug charge, no longer listed on roster
It appears the brief but up-and-down career of Larry Jefferson in Morgantown has come to an abrupt end.
The former junior college transfer had been suspended from participating in West Virginia's spring practices for violating unspecified team rules. Now, WV MetroNews is reporting, the defensive lineman was arrested late Tuesday morning and charged with drug possession. "Jefferson was stopped on Clay Street in Morgantown as officers were investigating a brandishing incident at South University Plaza in Morgantown," the website wrote, and was subsequently found to be carrying small amounts of cocaine and marijuana.
According to the Dominion Post, Jefferson was holding .6 grams of coke and one gram of weed.
While WVU officials have yet to comment publicly on the situation, Jefferson's name has been removed from the Mountaineers' online roster. Jefferson had not been reinstated from his spring suspension, but, prior to this incident, he had been expected to be on the field for the start of summer camp early next month and be a part of WVU's line rotation this season as a pass-rush specialist.
After coming to WVU following two seasons at a Mississippi JUCO, Jefferson played in nine games for the Mountaineers last season.

I've uploaded a logo to my website using the control panel. This displays correctly in Safari. However, when I try to load the website in Google Chrome, I get a broken link.
I've checked the code, and the image URL is pointing to the correct location (wp-content/uploads/2014/04/logo.jpg). When I try to open this location in the browser, it again works in Safari but not in Chrome.
Any ideas for how to resolve this? I haven't created a child theme or amended the functions... Just a couple of small custom CSS changes.

Who wrote the sonnet of seaside romance? Guess Shakespeare would feel wordless at the sight of marine motif lace wedding dress. Amber's beach simple wedding dresses unfold pictures of sea-inspired details like pearl beading, shelly appliqué and metallic embroidery. A profusion of drapes, bubbles, pleating and ruffling echoes to the very physique of the beach and the sea.

The government's tool for re-securing a compromised iPhone.
Q: What's the government process for wiping an iPhone after a security leak?
A: Pound it with a hammer.
Managing mobile devices and their risks, instituting security measures on par with more traditional desktops and laptops, determining what tool to use when things go wrong – these are all commonly cited hurdles to BYOD in federal agencies. But there are so many others that accompany those concerns that it sometimes becomes difficult to imagine it's actually going to happen.
Of course, it's happening already, on a certain level. There are pilot programs. There are options, such as bolting $200 Common Access Card "sleds" onto the device for authentication purposes so Defense Department employees can take their smart phones to work.
But neither of those is the true BYOD policy that personnel in the digital era want: the freedom to use one familiar device to do it all, work and personal, without worries about "leakage" or having all your vacation photos smashed into oblivion.
"If you look at it from a financial standpoint, sure, it's the cost of the device," said Maj. Linus Barloon, chief of cyber operations division in the J3 directorate and cyberspace officer in the Air Force's White House Communications Agency. "But when you look at the man-hours associated with cleaning up a spill for a regular device, and now toss in a smart device – it's just easier to stay away from bring-your-own-device, issue the user one of your own devices such that you can [install] the governmental controls."
It is not just the devices, either. The data itself and the policies that govern BYOD present just as much, if not more, of a problem, officials said July 24 at MeriTalk's cybersecurity brainstorm event in Washington. The discussion there represented a snapshot of a conversation that is playing out across agencies and departments.
"There are more implications to BYOD than to cybersecurity," said Joe Johnson, managed mobility program manager at the General Services Administration. "Some of that has to do with legal, some of that has to do with employee unions – who pays for the devices, are they getting reimbursed? What are the legal implications of data that could be lost? It's a Pandora's box that I don't think anybody has really figured out yet. It's probably easier to think of BYOD from a security policy point of view than it is with the broader policy implications that extend beyond security policy itself."

Well, perhaps Mars needs women, but Uranus needs everybody… and a visit to the queen's spaceship turns people into sex robots.

I actually enjoyed the comic aspects of this story – but the acting does leave a bit to be desired. Some good girl/girl action in the beginning, and a couple of energetic, couplings (with anal) towards the end. Those, plus an unusual storyline, make this worth a look.

300 Long Islanders, Tied to Connecticut; The Dwindling Population of Fishers Island Is Isolated by State Borders and Winter's Winds
Published: February 6, 2000
(Page 2 of 2)
Everyone helps out when he can. When one resident had a flat tire on her way to Bloethe's Market, a passer-by gave her a ride, even though it was out of his way. After she called the service station, Mr. Bloethe offered her the use of the delivery van to get her groceries home. When Mr. Bloethe's Jack Russell terrier saw the keys come out, he started bouncing around, looking for a ride, so she took the dog with her, promising to return him later that day.
''That's the way it is when you know everybody,'' Mr. Bloethe said.
For a long time, the island did not have a doctor, but it had an arrangement with a New York teaching hospital that rotated internists out to the island every two weeks. ''You knew right away who the doctor was when they got off the ferry,'' Mr. Bloethe said. ''It was the only person you didn't know.''
There is a resident doctor now, semiretired, but an important safeguard for the islanders.
First settled in 1615, Fishers Island has attracted tourists since the late 19th century. The year-round population has never been large, though, in part because of the winters. Jobs are few: a couple of positions at what is referred to with a smile as the Boroleum factory, a small building that packages an ointment for skin ailments; a few lobstermen, some jobs at the utilities department and on the road crew.
But some famous people have called it home during the summers: Rockefellers and Roosevelts, DuPonts and Firestones. Many still maintain homes there, but the seasonal residents (islanders call them ''the families'') value their privacy, and the year-rounders respect that. There is a strong economic interest to observe the policy: many islanders work at the seasonal homes.
Paul Rogan, who came to the island in 1931, will tell you that he has been handyman, bartender, groundskeeper and gardener for a succession of famous people, but he will not tell you which ones.
When Mr. Rogan, who is known as Joe, was growing up on the island, the Army still operated Fort H. G. Wright at the western end. The concrete bunkers that once held heavy artillery to fight off a feared invasion force from Germany stand empty; a fence around the 1,800-acre post is rusting.
One house on Hay Harbor, the next bay east, is familiar to visitors: the shingled summer house where Robin Williams and Glenn Close filmed ''The World According to Garp.'' (Mr. Rogan's daughter was an extra in the film.)
Since the military left half a century ago, Mr. Rogan has made his living on the eastern end of the island, where only residents and guests may travel; the roads there are privately owned by the Fishers Island Development Corporation.
He says the lack of Burger Kings or Dunkin Donuts does not bother him. ''I like seafood, and I can dig all the clams I want when everyone leaves,'' Mr. Rogan said. ''I don't like to do it in the summertime because it'll show people where my spots are, and they'll go in and clean them right out.''
He tries to get over to Connecticut every week or 10 days, and he generally tries to accomplish several errands: shop, see a doctor, do some banking. If you forget to buy aspirin and come down with a headache in the middle of the night, you have only one choice: ''You have to call Billy and get him to open the store.''
Fishers Island is desolate when the temperature drops, and Marlin Bloethe, who runs the grocery store with her husband, said islanders think of their ferry trips to Connecticut as more than just a jaunt to the mainland.
''It's nice, but sometimes it gets too quiet, and you have to get on the boat and go back to America,'' she said. ''All there is to do is work around the store and walk the dog.''
The highest point on the island is just 140 feet above sea level, a promontory where the utilities district has mounted a water tower. No matter where you are on the island, you can see the ocean all around. And no matter which way the wind blows, you can feel it anywhere.
''People out here call Connecticut 'the mainland,' '' said Justin Fisher, 20, who moved to the island with his mother last year. ''The first time you hear that, it gets to you. It's not like we're in another country. But after 20 years in Connecticut, it was a bit of a culture shock. I mean, one store on the whole island? When I was back home there was a Cumberland Farms down the street, and a McDonald's. You miss things like that. Just to have a mall would be great.''
Alison Scroxton, 21, who works in Bloethe's Market, grew up on the island, and said she used to feel the same way.
''My class was a big class, and it was a class of six,'' she said. ''One boy; all the rest were girls. None of us could wait to graduate high school; we all were going to get out. It was boring, nothing to do, nowhere to go.
''Now I love it. The majority of my classmates, when I talk to them, they regret ever having left. They couldn't wait to get off this rock, but when they have a school break, they can't wait to come back.''
Winters are still not the busiest times, she said, but the islanders keep busy. ''A few of us just started up our aerobics class,.'' Miss Scroxton said. ''We have a girls' softball league. And we go down to the American Legion once in a while and play cards.''
Her father, Edward, a 20-year member of the Fishers Island highway crew, is commander and head bartender at the Legion Post, the only wintertime nightspot, open 365 days a year. There is microwave popcorn and toaster pizza, and a barbecue pit if someone wants to grill a cheeseburger in good weather.
''To a degree, it takes an exceptional individual to live out here in the wintertime,'' Mr. Scroxton said. ''You see the steam rising off the salt water like that, and you know the air temperature is going to be cold when you step out the door. So you spend time inside when you have to. I'll sit in my chair and break apart a fishing reel and clean it or repair it. Everybody keeps busy.''
''But it also tends to bring out the best in a few people,'' he continued. ''I've thought about leaving before, but I just can't seem to get it out of my system.''

Batgirl Returns
Boo, Internet. You are a Karen O costume spoiler. When the Yeah Yeah Yeahs' KO turned up at Webster Hall last Tuesday night looking like a sex-dungeon Batgirl, resplendent in a shiny plastic onesie and bondage leggings, the first thought-bubble over your narrator's head was: Aw, she just wore that three days ago at Lollapalooza! Ack.
What the Web didn't spoil, thank god.blogspot.com, is the exuberant magnificence of seeing her in person. This particular show was the first time the triple-Ys had played their hometown since releasing the five-song Is Is last month. Six years after the band's debut EP, Karen O remains a bad-ass rock creature revered for aerial spitting and microphone-fellatingperhaps the only woman in a decade of zeroes now able to rock a hat-scalped tinsel Cousin It wig and make a roomful of dedicated assholes swoon. And so, when she giddily grinned during the Spider-Man 3soundtracked opener "Sealings," all us jaded jerks grinned along. When alarmingly long-haired drummer Brian Chase, Scissorhanded guitarist Nick Zinner, and second-string six-stringer Imaad Wasif all stepped back to let her morph the glib bridge of "Art Star" into a beastly death-metal ROOOOOOOOAAR, everybody understood why. And when Karen mule-kicked an invisible ass to the fugitive pogo-stomp of "Honeybear," we all secretly wished we owned that imaginary posterior.
Gotta come clean, though. I saw the YYYs at one of those two 100-person Glasslands Gallery shows where Is Is's night- vision videos were filmed, so my Webster experience was a little different than, say, the 1,399 of you collapsing into paroxysms of joy every time Karen O sucked her mic head. Glasslands was the live-show equivalent of having dinner with the Virgin Mary; Webster, for me, was more like seeing Her Face on a grilled-cheese sandwich. It was still awe-inspiring, humbling, and moving as all hell, but I'd already seen it on the Internet.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) -- If you've been through security at San Francisco International Airport recently and are missing your sunglasses or laptop, it's probably worth checking in with the Transportation Security Administration.
The San Francisco Chronicle reports (http://bit.ly/1v5wkTj) the TSA has collected about 20,000 items left behind by forgetful or frazzled passengers at SFO so far this year. The items include numerous laptops and sunglasses, but also more unusual things such as the wheelchair that someone presumably used to get to security.
Only 2,000 of those items have been reunited with their owners.
TSA spokesman Nico Melendez says most likely go unclaimed because people don't know when or where they lost them.
The TSA, however, does not hold them forever. Laptops are eventually scrubbed of their data and sold. Less expensive items are donated to a state agency.

Definition of arytenoid in English:
(also arytenoid cartilage)
Either of a pair of cartilages at the back of the larynx, used in the production of different kinds of voice quality (for example, creaky voice).
Example sentences
- It is particularly important to understand the relationship of the following structures: the epiglottis, arytenoid cartilage, aryepiglottic folds, and cricoid cartilage.
- Arytenoid adduction and rotation is another technique that seeks to medialize the vocal process of the paralyzed arytenoid cartilage.
- The middle, conical-shaped pair of corniculate cartilages rest on the apex of the arytenoid cartilages and serve as attachments for muscles that regulate the tension of the vocal cords during speech.
Early 18th century: from modern Latin arytaenoides, from Greek arutainoeidēs, from arutaina 'funnel'.

Public Birthdays May Soon Get Less Creative
What if "Happy Birthday" was public domain?
Part of the fun of watching a birthday scene on television is in hearing the always-awkward replacement for the Happy Birthday song, which has been necessary for years because the traditional number is copyrighted. That may change soon, as a class-action suit started by a filmmaker doing a documentary on the song seeks to strip current copyright holder Warner/Chappell Music Group of the rights and put the song in public domain.
The plaintiff, Good Morning To You Productions Corp., filed suit after it was threatened with a $150,000 penalty for using the song without permission and wound up paying a $1,500 fee for it, Reuters reports. The filmmaker says Warner/Chappell makes $2 million annually from licensing fees. If it works, anybody will be able to use the song in any piece of art, which would eliminate the need for hilarious alternatives.
Someone helpfully compiled a few of the goofy replacement songs that have graced the airwaves over the years:
But when shows do pay for it, they often make it worthwhile:

In support of Bill Dunckelman
Published: Thursday, January 27, 2011 at 10:15 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, January 27, 2011 at 10:15 a.m.
I am writing this letter in support of Bill Dunckelman. In over 20 of practicing law, I have not met a more kind, compassionate and Christian man. Bill always goes the extra mile for the elderly, the sick and the underprivileged. Anyone who knows Bill knows that his Facebook posts were made in jest. I have no desire to debate the issue as to whether his comments were appropriate in light of his position as the hearing officer. Rather, I think the public needs to understand what it is that Bill does for this parish. Bill, as the hearing officer for child support, is often responsible for making sure that the children in our parish have a roof over their heads, clothes on their backs and food in their mouths through the payment of child support.
Therefore, one might understand his frustration at situations such as the one before him on that particular day. As to the Facebook "friend" who reported Bill's post to the newspaper, shame on you. With friends like you, who needs enemies? Anyone who is his friend knows his true character and kindness. I am honored to call Bill my friend.

Research Institution:
AbstractThis Phase I SBIR program will result in the design, simulation and construction of portions of a prototype Ku/Ka-band array. To accomplish this task, NanoSonic is staffed or has teamed with a unique combination of engineers, chemists and materials scientists capable of producing and simulating this array. The NanoSonic PI is antenna engineer with many years experience in both hardware implementation and simulation software construction. In Phase I NanoSonic would consult with the antenna group of a major defense contractor in order to design a suitable antenna meeting the constraints for gain, polarization, bandwidth, scanning and RCS. This defense contractor would work directly on the Phase II program. NanoSonic would construct a unique EBG waveguide and suitable coupled radiators using the unique processes that are used to create Metal Rubber™. These materials can be applied to severe, doubly curved surfaces without de-bonding or cracking. In verification of the design, NanoSonic would team with a well-known computational electromagnetics group to perform detailed simulations of the antenna. This code ranks among the top integral equation based codes in the country and incorporates the MLFMA, advanced preconditioning and high-order basis functions for fast, accurate solutions.
