Amazon.com Review
Brand Yourself compellingly advocates combining today's hottest business concept with the biggest trends in business demographics. Geared toward anyone switching careers, running a small business, or just striving to advance in a current job, the book--by veteran career coaches and marketing consultants David Andrusia and Rick Haskins--argues persuasively that one must carefully create a personal brand and aggressively market it like soup or mouthwash in order to get ahead in these ultracompetitive times. "Branding is such a powerful tool in selling products that it makes perfect sense that we as individuals should brand ourselves," they write, "thereby creating a strong, positive sense of ourselves and our services that is different and better than what our peers have to offer." They begin with an extensive but clearly articulated "career self-evaluation and brand assessment" to facilitate development of a "Personal Branding Statement" that is specifically shaped by your skills and personality traits in addition to marketplace needs. They then focus on "packaging your brand" with the right name, collateral material, and even office space, and "making yourself known" through properly framed written matter and personal contacts. Concluding chapters offer specific suggestions on attaining promotions and changing careers, as well as using the concept in other special circumstances. --Howard Rothman
From Booklist
This book will confirm the suspicions of cynics. Its publicist almost brags, "You need more than talent and hard work to get ahead." Pragmatists will counter, however, that the authors are really only introducing a new vocabulary. Regardless, "personal branding" is currently a hot catch phrase. Andrusia is the author of The Perfect Pitch: How to Sell Yourself for Today's Job Market (1997) as well as several travel guides. Haskins has been a brand manager at Proctor and Gamble and was a marketing vice president at Disney Co. What they offer is fairly standard career advice, but it is steeped in the jargon of Madison Avenue. It is not much of a leap to move from recommending that job hunters "sell themselves" to having job hunters think of themselves as products. Andrusia and Haskins know how to move a product. They make the case for the "need to brand" and offer tips on brand assessment, developing a "personal branding statement," packaging oneself, broadcasting one's brand, jump-starting "stalled" brands, and rebranding. Caveat emptor! David Rouse

Hello! I am having some troubles with the permalinks.
I want the blog page from the main nav link to category/blog, but whenever I try to change the permalink and publish, the link automatically turns itself to categoryblog.
I asked my friend and hers works fine, apparently. She doesn't know what's the problem and neither do I.
Help, please!
Is there a specific way to change the permalinks?
Thank you in advance!

Upon checking my adsense clicks I noticed an unauthorized publisher id pub-2941637122112958 which is coded into this plugin 'All in One Adsense and YPN' - apparently this plugin is adding its own publisher ID randomly to my adsense ads even if you do not specify a donation percentage. In my case, I've noticed a considerable drop in clicks, to the point of having my revenue reduced by 90%. This began to happen right after the last update. Before that, everything seemed normal "Seemed", cause I honestly don't know what this plugin was doing before that and how much money I've been losing using this plugin, which I'm assuming is quite a lot.

The use of species data versus environmental surrogates used in lieu of species data in systematic reserve site selection is still highly debated. We analyse in a case study whether and how the results of reserve network selection are affected by the use of species data versus habitat surrogates (habitat models) for qualitative (presence/absence) and quantitative (population size/habitat quality) information. In a model region, the post-mining landscape south of Leipzig/Germany, we used iterative algorithms to select a network for 29 animal target species from a basic set of 127 sites. The network results differ markedly for the two information types: depending on the representation goal, 18–45% of the selected sites chosen in response to one information type do not appear in the results for the other type. Given the availability of quantitative and hence deeper information, evaluation rules can be used to filter out the best habitats and the largest populations. In our model study, 0–40% less suitable areas were selected when instead of quantitative details only qualitative data were used. In view of various advantages and limitations of the two information types, we propose improving the methodological approach to the selection of networks for animal species by combining different information types.

Sigh, properly remove USE_GCC=yes now.
- Support staging. [1]
- Fix a crash while building devel/kdevelop-php on FreeBSD 10 and HEAD by
replacing USE_GCC=yes with USES=compiler:c++11-lib and importing some
upstream commits related to improving clang support.
Curiously enough, we did not have problems building this port with clang
before per se. However, forcing GCC even on systems that use libc++ by
default was causing crashes at runtime (ie. the ones that happened while
building devel/kdevelop-php), probably due to STL mismatch issues.
On the other hand, simply using USES=compiler:c++11-lib is not enough, as
GCC only allows the use of the <unordered_set> header in C++11 mode, so
the upstream patches are also needed.

Update to libmpc version 1.0.1 which brings the following fixes:
- Switched to automake 1.11.6, see CVE-2012-3386.
- #14669: Fixed extraction of CC from gmp.h.
- Fixed case of intermediate zero real or imaginary part in mpc_fma,
found by hydra with GMP_CHECK_RANDOMIZE=1346362345.
This is on top of the following changes from version 1.0
- Licence change towards LGPLv3+ for the code and GFDLv1.3+ (with no
invariant sections) for the documentation.
- 100% of all lines are covered by tests

Replace USE_GCC=4.6+ and USE_GCC=4.4+ by USE_GCC=yes.
Right now this is a noop in the former case and a noop in the latter
case unless lang/gcc44 has been installed explicitly.
This puts a bit more emphasis on standardizing on a canonical version
"current" GCC and makes it easier to update that canonical version
by changing the default in Mk/bsd.gcc.mk and updating the lang/gcc port.
That is, USE_GCC=yes means "use a decent/modern version of GCC" without
having to worry about details.

With the three preceding volumes, this book makes the published Nobel Prize addresses in physiology or medicine available through 1970. Although few individuals will feel a need to own the set, they should be on the shelves of all scientific libraries.
The scientific caliber of the papers is, of course, uncompromisingly high; within these pages some of the world's most inspired investigators report on years—often decades—of creative work. The award list includes such names as Eccles, Huxley, Rous, Huggins, Monod, and von Euler. In general, the literary quality in these works closely parallels the scientific quality, making the addresses readable and fascinating documents.
As always, the technical aspects of the book production by Elsevier are excellent. The printing and binding are exemplary. Unfortunately, the current inflation, affecting publishing houses along with other industries in the national economy, is reflected in the price of this volume.

Off initially after reporting an in-line Q1, Cornerstone OnDemand (CSOD +9.2%) is now shooting higher, no doubt thanks to its earnings call guidance. The cloud HR software firm expects Q2 revenue of $26M-$26.5M and 2012 revenue of $114.5M-$116.5M; the former is in-line, but the latter is above a consensus of $113.6M. In addition, Cornerstone's Q1 bookings grew 67% Y/Y to $24M - that's an acceleration from Q4's 58% growth.

Which sex is the worst about washing up? Why is it so important? We've got the dirty truth on how and when to wash your hands.
Riding Out Rip Currents
In this article
According to the CDC, drowning is the third leading cause of accidental death in the U.S. Many of these drownings occur at the beach, where rip currents are most often to blame.
Rip currents are narrow channels of water flowing out past the surf zone that can pull even strong swimmers into deep water beyond the offshore sand bar.
Recommended Related to First Aid
Nosebleeds can be dramatic and frightening. Luckily, most nosebleeds are not serious and can be handled fairly easily. They are divided into two types, depending on whether the bleeding is coming from the anterior (front of the nose) or posterior (back of the nose). Anterior nosebleeds make up more than 90% of all nosebleeds. The bleeding usually comes from a blood vessel at the very front part of the nose. Anterior nosebleeds are usually easy to control, either by measures that can be performed...
Read the Nosebleeds article > >
You can enjoy a day at the beach if you respect the water and learn to expect the unexpected.
What To Do About Rip Currents
If you find yourself being pulled by a rip current, the U.S. Lifeguard Association has the following tips:
- Try to relax and realize that a rip current will not pull you under -- it will just pull you away.
- Do not swim against the current -- it will challenge even the strongest swimmers.
- Float on your back and ride with the current.
- Once you're past the breaking waves, swim parallel to the shore, then swim to the shore in calmer waters.
What Are Rip Currents?
Rip currents are strong, swift-moving channels of water rushing from the shore out to sea.
The National Weather Service explains how they're formed:
Unlike undertows, rip currents are shallow water processes that do not pull a person under. They form when water, piled against the shore, begins to return to deeper water. Typically, strong wind and swell waves push water over a sandbar allowing excess water to collect. Eventually, the excess water starts to return seaward through low areas in the sandbar, "ripping" an opening. Near the beach, rip currents are narrow (30-60 feet wide) with increasing width as they extend up to 1,000 feet offshore. The velocity of the water can be as high as 5 mph, which is faster than an Olympic swimmer.
Rip currents can be spotted from the beach. They churn up murky water or appear darker than the water around them. Also, you can spot a rip current by looking for objects or foam moving steadily seaward. Wave heights are also lower and choppier in rip currents. And if the beach is patrolled, look for flags that warn about dangerous waters.

Momentum was building this weekend towards Argentina reopening its exchange with holders of up to $15 billion worth of defaulted sovereign bonds
Momentum was building this weekend towards Argentina
reopening its exchange with holders of up to $15 billion worth
of defaulted sovereign bonds.
Financiers in Cancun said a deal is closer than at any time
in the last five years.
The deal is ready to get done, Miguel Kiguel of
Econviews consultancy, and a former Argentine finance
secretary, said. Kiguel reckoned that an agreement may be ready
to go after Easter with a good level of
Market sources believe Argentina is close to winning
acceptance for a deal among bond holdouts (investors who
rejected a previous deal).
Edwin Gutierrez, portfolio manager at Aberdeen Asset
Management, predicted a percentage acceptance level in
the low 90s. The value of the offer, yet undisclosed,
would have to be in the high 40s [% of the nominal value
of the bonds] to clear, Gutierrez told Emerging
Markets. There has to be some upside. Otherwise
its a non starter.
Argentinas economy minister Amado Boudou and finance
secretary Hernan Lorenzino are in Cancun for further talks with
investors on the fringe of the IDB governors
They arrived after Argentine authorities had on Thursday
amended an earlier filing at New Yorks Security Exchange
Commission, to allow the transaction to proceed. Both
government officials have declared their intention to proceed
with the deal at the beginning of April.
Even those who were originally skeptical have warmed to the
idea of a deal during the past week. Observers in Argentina say
the real motive lies in a slight improvement in the domestic
political climate, following weeks of open conflict that
created a sense of institutional weakness and threatened to
spark another serious crisis.
The controversy flared up after the decision to transfer
$6.5 billion from central bank reserves to the treasury, which
prompted fears that the government may be running out of cash
or preparing to increase public spending ahead of next
years elections.
There is a sense among politicians that the government
will not default, and in some situations, Congress will
eventually authorize the use of reserves, Kiguel said.
There is a big political struggle to determine who makes
the decision in Argentina. But no one is actually ready to come
out officially [publicly] to block such a
Gutierrez added that resistance among bond holders has been
diminishing as there has been a significant transfer of
bond holdouts from retail investors to institutional investors.
If the value of the offer is good, most would prefer to get the
money and go out of illiquid bonds.
Kenneth Levine, a Wall Street lawyer with Carter Ledyard
& Milburn LLP, said: Argentina was forced by the
system to honour its obligation.

I know I can manually run it through PHP's exec() command but I was hoping if there was a ready to download and deploy PHP-based system that could act as a bridge and terminal and you can run commands on it like you were in the terminal itself.
Try PHPShell. I tried it and it works great. Although it can't use vim or any program that requires user input in the middle of execution but that's enough for me.
Kloxo has a command line interface, you can use it
check ssh.serverdo.in, and serfish, i used those in the past, or you can just google "online ssh client".
PS: I don't think you can find a php script that acts like a terminal, i think you should go for java.

Half of these restaurants aren't in Milwaukee.Hide replies
metro in front of the Milwaukee means "more than just Milwaukee".
Gee I wonder why Ryan Braun's restaurant is on the list.
Dear Carol, I grew up in Milwaukee of German decent. When I see 'big plate-little food' I'm sorry that's not for me. When I order a glass of wine and the bartender brings a glass 1/3 full,I feel I've been screwed. Keep your 'downtown' fake fine dining for old hippies, yuppies and people with alternative lifestyles. For the 'rest' of us 'big plate-big food and big drink' or we'll stay home.
Sincerely, Gary 64 yr. old West AllisHide replies
If you're drinking red wine it should never be filled to the brim b/c the wine won't be able to open up all its flavors. I'll take my quality of quantity any day.
Red wine should be served at 55-60 degrees, poured to the widest part of the glass so it can open up. When I get a wine poured in a rolled rim glass, at "room" temperature, I know I'm in a place that doesn't know anything about wine service.
Formermarine1, you should probably drink your Carlo Rossi at home after going through the drive thru.
Dear formermarine1,
This story was not written just for you. You can stay at home in West Allis. If you've ventured out, there are many more people other than "old hippies, yuppies, and people with alternative lifestyles who eat at these places.
Sincerely, Waterboy.Hide replies
However, us old hippies and yuppies have the $$$ to spend on fine dining. And apparently the demand from us has kept the higher end places afloat since it's still impossible to get a same week reservation at many of the high end places around the area. Going to Eddie Martini's tonight, made a reservation 6 weeks ago and that was difficult since they are fully booked.
Be sure to visit Ninja Japanese Steakhouse, 944 E. Paradise Drive in West Bend!
Great hibachi meals, sushi bar, and dining room!
Dear Waterboy, I feel the same way formermarine1 feels and I am not old, but I do want my moneys worth and nto some fru fru dinner where i go out then come home and have to have a real dinner. I go and not only do I want tot enjoy but i don't want to go home hungry too. All Carol seems to post are the upscale places but not a good family place.
Lots of food.....Good value. I would try that Tony & Mia's. Most dinners are under $20. The pizza's have to be the most popular around. They are around Twenty bucks, but big and stacked with toppings. I prefer the Spedini. We do not have kids, but there seems to be a fair share there (eating pizza). We go there more during the summer because of the cool outdoor seating on the second floor.
Sabor is good also.
How can Oscar's not be on this list? That's a big miss.
I thought the article was pretty spot on...Part of a food critic's job is to help push the culinary aspect of a city's food scene forward. A "higher end"(likely independent) restaurant is a more difficult type of venture to keep open, higher cost of ingredients/labor then say an old country buffet. Without these type's of features, many of the masses in the midwest may not know of or consider dining at such places, which may not have a price point/quantity of food that you are looking for. Nothing wrong with that, but the "best of's" is not were to address those (value minded) spots imo..Carol does a lot of chats with the public on here and that would be a great time to inquire about more of the value minded spots, as opposed to a place that makes everything in house, butchers its own meat/fish, rotates a creative menu seasonally, prepared by real chefs/cooks who have studied the craft as a profession.. I suppose "best" is a subjective term, but it would be a little depressing if Carol were to award best seafood to red lobster every year cuz you get more lobster for your buck. Outside of a larger, multi-unit corps, I doubt that's the goal for anyone in the industry.. including the people who write about it professionally.Hide replies
When you say "value", you obviously mean cheap.
That's the problem with many restaurants these days, because they also assume the terms are synonymous.
Value means that you're satisfied with what you got was worth what you paid. Sanford, which is obviously not cheap, is a tremendous value when compared to other high end restaurants in Milwaukee and elsewhere.
However, some would consider Sanford a poor value because everything is ala carte, and entree prices exceed $5. The dining reviews should focus on new, cutting edge, creative ventures, not "all you can eat" or oversized portions of pedestrian food. Those places are everywhere and we don't need to read about them.
Glad to see you highlight restaurants outside of the City of Milwaukee. Many people who live and recreate outside of Milwaukee want other choices for quality dining experiences.

I am playing around with expression trees and trying to better understand how they work. I wrote some sample code that I'm working with and hopefully someone can help me out.
So I have this somewhat messy query:
/// <summary>
/// Retrieves the total number of messages for the user.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="username">The name of the user.</param>
/// <param name="sent">True if retrieving the number of messages sent.</param>
/// <returns>The total number of messages.</returns>
public int GetMessageCountBy_Username(string username, bool sent)
var query = _dataContext.Messages
.Where(x => (sent ? x.Sender.ToLower() : x.Recipient.ToLower()) == username.ToLower())
return query;
_dataContext is the entity framework data context. This query works beautifully, but it's not easy to read. I decided to factor the inline IF statement out into a
Func like this:
public int GetMessageCountBy_Username(string username, bool sent)
Func<Message, string> userSelector = x => sent ? x.Sender : x.Recipient;
var query = _dataContext.Messages
.Where(x => userSelector(x).ToLower() == username.ToLower())
return query;
This seems like it would work great, but there is a problem. Because the query is against
IQueryable<T> this LINQ expression is being translated into SQL to be executed at the data source. That's great, but because of this it does not know what to do with the call to
userSelector(x) and throws an exception. It cannot translate this delegate into an expression.
So now that I understand why it's failing I would like to try and make it work. It's far more work for what I need, but I'm doing it just out of pure interest. How might I turn this
Func into an expression that can be translated into SQL?
I tried to do this:
Expression<Func<Message, string>> userSelectorExpression = x => sent ? x.Sender : x.Recipient;
Func<Message, string> userSelector = userSelectorExpression.Compile();
With this however, I get the same error. I think I'm failing to understand expressions. I think all I'm doing with the above code is writing an expression but then turning it into executable code again and then getting the same error. However, if I try to use
userSelectorExpression within the LINQ query it can't be called like a method.
I'm fairly confused at the moment. Any clarification would be much appreciated. Thanks!
For those interested in the exception, here it is:
The LINQ expression node type 'Invoke' is not supported in LINQ to Entities.
I took this to mean that it could not "invoke" the
userSelector delegate. Because, as stated above, it needs to translate it into an expression tree.
When using a real method, you get a slightly more verbose error message:
LINQ to Entities does not recognize the method 'System.String userSelector(Message, Boolean)' method, and this method cannot be translated into a store expression.

Blogs Cliopatria Inaugurations Are Supposed to Be BoringJan 17, 2005 7:53 pm
Inaugurations Are Supposed to Be Boring
A reporter called up. Aren't inaugurations kind of boring, he asked?
Why do we pay attention?
I don't mean to be flip, but they're supposed to be boring.
That's the point.
If they were exciting--really exciting, it would be because the transition from one presidency to another was fraught with an element of danger.
The main danger at American inaugurals is boredom.
Only once in our history was there genuine fear that the transition might not take place peacefully. That was in 1877. Two days earlier Rutherford B. Hayes had been installed as president following a disputed election settled by a special commission established by the Congress.
On the eve of the election it was rumored that the forces supporting the losing candidate, Samuel Tilden, might march on the capital and create a scene--and possibly resort to violence to prevent Hayes's installation.
But nothing happened.
Only once in the history of inaugurations has a president been faced with violence of any kind: that was Nixon in '68, when eggs were thrown at his motorcade. In 2001 Bush's motorcade was steered away from protesters.

ongoing mucas build up and pain would it help
Answers (4)
Well, assuming you are talking about Nizoral. This would not help with sinus infections. Most sinus infection require drugs that fight bacteria - often Augmentin or Amoxacillin. Nizoral only fight fungal infections.
There are cases of fungal sinus infections, but this is not very common.
Actually, studies show that infections caused by fungus/yeast are actually a lot more common than previously thought.

Regardless of what medication you are on, a neti pot may be your answer, and it contains no drugs. It is a small "teapot" shaped vessel which you fill with warm saline solution. You then tip your head forward and to the side, and pour the solution into your nostril. This will clean out your sinus of any mucous buildup, infection, allergens, etc, and the saline solution will pour our of your other nostril. Repeat on the other side daily, even when your sinuses are not bothering you. Neti pots are fairly cheap. You can find them in a drugstore or at Swanson Vitamins.com. I find that company to be the most reasonable with their prices, and they have very good specials monthly.
17 Mar 2011
prescribed for fungal infections of the blood, mouth, throat, or central nervous system to treat and prevent opportunistic fungal infections that inflict many people with either HIV or cancer whose immune systems have been compromised, is this look like it has color to the mucous? any fever? chronic drainage? I would discuss the use of this with either a pharmacist or physician, if it deals with bacteria that may be one thing if its just sinus there may be another drug that is just as effective or even moreso.

Living in the Chinatown neighborhood of Manhattan
Affordable and hard-to-find describe many Chinatown apartments for rent. Most of the apartments are rented exclusively by word-of-mouth, and are never advertised. However, there are exceptions and apartments in rental buildings such as the Clinton Street Apartments, or the West 60 Apartments, often include much-desired features like hardwood floors, high ceilings, and newly renovated kitchens.
Available space in this area can be found in older walk-up buildings and in buildings converted into modest lofts, and you can also find moderately-priced apartments, from studios to two-bedroom rentals. Most are within easy walking distances to several parks, plenty of public transportation, shops and an exciting nightlife.
Manhattan's Chinatown is the largest in the United States; its two square miles located on the island's lower east side, loosely bounded by Kenmore and Delancey Streets on the east, and Broadway to the west. However, these boundaries have been expanding, particularly in recent years, overtaking parts of what traditionally wasLittle Italy. Although , for obvious reasons, a favored destination for Chinese immigrants, in recent years the neighborhood has become home to other ethnic groups as well, and continues to grow rapidly.
Living here means you are a step away from a thriving street life, but except for an occasional Pagoda style phone booth, quaintness is often replaced by a crowded selection of shops featuring native fruits and vegetables, low-cost clothing and housewares, herbal apothecaries, fine crafts, and unusual paper goods.
Unassuming storefront restaurants offer a treasure-trove of delectable Chinese food inside. To mention just a sampling: Dim Sum Go Go, Joe's Shanghai, Oriental Garden, Tasty Dumpling, Vegetarian Dim Sum House, and Ten Ren Tea and Ginseng, which is a lovely spot for residents who are tea lovers. Ten Ren's flagship store is at 75 Mott Street.
The most bustling commercial streets of Chinatown include Pell, Doyers, and Bayard, with their narrow walks and open-air markets. Canal Street, between Broadway and Mulberry Street, is crammed full of tiny stalls selling knock-off designer goods, bamboo plants, Chinese lanterns, and exclusive varieties of tea. The largest park is Columbus Park, often a site for men playing games of checkers and children enjoying the playground in the south end.
See the neighborhood from the perspective of a special guided tour arranged through the Museum of Chinese in the Americas' (MoCA). Experience Chinese walking tours given every Saturday, or just explore the neighborhood if you are looking at Chinatown real estate and discover for yourself the charms of this neighborhood.

Michael Gerson has become the conscience of the Republican Party.
Today, he has a post about the consequences of the GOP's harsh anti-immigrant stance.
Last week, he looked at their disregard for social contract.
Gerson's is a reasonable voice in a party deeply commited to being unreasonable. He is to the GOP on issues of compassion what we pro-life Dems are to our party on the issue of abortion. But politics and cultures change, and they only change when reasonable people raise their voice. Kudos to Gerson for staying and fighting the good fight.

The C2G 36432 is specifically designed for fast Ethernet, fiber channel, ATM and gigabit Ethernet applications. The small LC connectors satisfy the need for higher port density both in the telecom room and the work area, and offer twice the port density of traditional SC and ST fiber connectors. The LC connector with its RJ-style latch clip design is easy to engage and disengage, and gives each connection greater durability in resisting pulls, strains, snags, and impacts during cabling installs and maintenance. The LSZH jacket is composed from materials that lessen the smoke and halogen emissions when the cable is exposed to extreme temperatures. This reduces the amount of harmful toxic and corrosive gases that cabling made with plastic materials would otherwise emit into the air during combustion.

TORONTO — Recent changes at Loblaw Cos. here have spurred fresh industry speculation about its potential interest in acquiring Safeway's Canadian assets. Given the financial flexibility Loblaw is likely to gain from the formation of a real estate investment trust it announced last month, it would be a logical bidder for those assets, industry analysts told SN. However, they questioned whether Safeway will be interested in exiting Canada in the immediate future. Safeway ...

The Firefighters
Firefighters in Angry Scuffle With Police at Trade Center
By DAN BARRY and KEVIN FLYNN
Published: November 3, 2001
Abrief but emotionally wrenching scuffle broke out yesterday morning between New York City firefighters and police officers at the scene of their shared grief, the World Trade Center disaster site. A dozen firefighters were arrested and five police officers were injured in the incident, which rattled the city's top officials and laid bare the frustrations of the living who are unable to bury their dead.
What began as a demonstration by several hundred firefighters to protest a reduction in the number of firefighters permitted at the site turned into a jagged succession of awkward moments — some ugly, some poignant. One moment punches were being thrown in a melee between firefighters and police officers; the next, hundreds of firefighters were chanting their appreciation for the very officers they had just grappled with.
The two-hour protest concluded outside City Hall, where dozens of helmeted police officers, some on horseback, prepared for more trouble as firefighters called for the ousters of Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani and Fire Commissioner Thomas Von Essen and demanded the right to retrieve the remains of dead colleagues. Later, Mr. Giuliani emphasized that few bodies remained to be recovered. [Page B10.]
"Bring our brothers home!" they shouted, referring to the 250 firefighters still buried in the rubble after the Sept. 11 attack. "Bring our brothers home!"
The shoving match between the firefighting force, which lost 343 of its members on Sept. 11, and the police force, which lost 23 in the same awful event, was like the eruption of a familial brawl at a never- ending wake. Commissioner Von Essen apologized; Police Commissioner Bernard B. Kerik bristled; and Mayor Giuliani was the understanding but determined father.
After acknowledging that "emotions are very, very high for all of us," and noting that "we all have lost people that we love," the mayor called the firefighters' actions unacceptable. "You can't hit police officers," he said. "You can't disobey the law, and you have to have enough professionalism and dignity about yourself to not conduct yourself in that way. No matter how bad you feel, no matter how much you feel like crying, and no matter how much you feel like venting your emotions."
Last night, the bickering among the city's uniformed officers had not abated, and the potential for further confrontation remained. Seven firefighters, four ranking fire officers and one fire marshal were being held at the 28th Precinct station house in central Harlem. As of early today, charges that included trespassing, disorderly conduct and obstruction of governmental administration had been prepared against 10 of those arrested, according to the Barbara Thompson, a spokeswoman for the Manhattan district attorney's office. She said that no charges were being filed against the other two.
At the center of the emotions and frustrations exposed yesterday is the site itself: the slowly diminishing pile of rubble, acres wide and several floors deep. Thousands of people are believed to have died, many of them apparently reduced to dust, when the terrorist attack caused the twin towers to collapse. It is a construction site, but it is also a grave site.
In the beginning, the Fire Department was in charge of the site, and its members had complete access; they put out fires and searched for survivors who were never found. The search-and-rescue operations eventually ended, though, and firefighters dedicated themselves to finding the remains of their dead colleagues and carrying them away with dignity. It is part of their code.
But the Giuliani administration, heeding the advice of safety experts, has been reducing the number of firefighters permitted at the site, where swinging girders and rumbling backhoes pose a danger, and where many workers have developed chronic chest pains and coughing fits. On Wednesday, the city announced that only 25 firefighters would be assigned to the recovery of remains, down from 64 at the time.
Officials for the two unions that represent uniformed firefighters said this latest reduction set off feelings of hurt and betrayal among many firefighters. They felt that the city was treating hallowed ground as just another construction site, the officials said; that the mayor wanted the site tidied up by Dec. 31, when his tenure ends; that city officials seem to care more about removing the hoards of gold and silver underneath the trade center than they do about removing human remains.
Mr. Giuliani said he felt "really, really bad" that his efforts to ensure safety at the site had been distorted by "certain people." He also emphasized that firefighters and police officers would continue to be assigned to the site, and that the city was determined to "recover the maximum number of human remains that we can recover."
On Thursday afternoon, Deputy Mayor Anthony P. Coles and the leaders of the two firefighters' unions, representing about 11,500 men and women, met at City Hall to discuss the growing tensions, but little was resolved. Fire Capt. Peter L. Gorman, the president of the Uniformed Fire Officers Association, recalled telling Mr. Coles that firefighters and grieving families were very upset, and that a demonstration was going to take place with or without union support. "I told them the prudent thing to do was to prevent it," Mr. Coles said yesterday.

Reverse computation for rollback-based fault tolerance in large parallel systems

Reverse computation is presented here as an important future direction in addressing the challenge of fault tolerant execution on very large cluster platforms for parallel computing. As the scale of parallel jobs increases, traditional checkpointing approaches suffer scalability problems ranging from computational slowdowns to high congestion at the persistent stores for checkpoints. Reverse computation can overcome such problems and is also better suited for parallel computing on newer architectures with smaller, cheaper or energy-efficient memories and file systems. Initial evidence for the feasibility of reverse computation in large systems is presented with detailed performance data from a particle (ideal gas) simulation scaling to 65,536 processor cores and 950 accelerators (GPUs). Reverse computation is observed to deliver very large gains relative to checkpointing schemes when nodes rely on their host processors/memory to tolerate faults at their accelerators. A comparison between reverse computation and checkpointing with measurements such as cache miss ratios, TLB misses and memory usage indicates that reverse computation is hard to ignore as a future alternative to be pursued in emerging architectures.

The seven women working their sexual mojo here have an irrefutable Star-quality. Fair warning: If you're going to view this vid, better stockpile the Kleenex.
Stand-out moments include Kurt Lockwood's determined attempts to give Jassie an orgasm, which results in a pitch-perfect scene. Cindy Lords double-fists two facials across her face qualifies one of many "instant replay" type moments.

Hip Problems, Age 12 and Older
Topic Overview
Hip pain can make it hard to walk, go up and down stairs, squat, or sleep on the side that hurts. A clicking or snapping feeling or sound around your hip joint (snapping hip) may bother you or cause you to worry. But if your hip is not painful, in many cases the click or snap is nothing to worry about. Home treatment may be all that is needed for minor hip symptoms.
To better understand hip problems, it may be helpful to know how the hip works. It is the largest ball-and-socket joint in the body. The thighbone (femur) fits tightly into a cup-shaped socket (acetabulum) in the pelvis. The hip joint is tighter and more stable than the shoulder joint but it does not move as freely. The hip joint is held together by muscles in the buttock, groin, and spine; tendons; ligaments; and a joint capsule. Several fluid-filled sacs (bursae) cushion and lubricate the hip joint and let the tendons and muscles glide and move smoothly. The largest nerve in the body (sciatic nerve) passes through the pelvis into the leg.
Hip problems may develop from overuse, bone changes with age, tumors, infection, changes in the blood supply, or a problem that was present from birth (congenital). Oddly enough, a person who has a hip problem often feels pain in the knee or thigh instead of the hip. The type of hip pain you have may help your doctor determine the cause of your pain.
- Pain when resting does not increase with motion or standing. This type of pain is usually caused by a less severe problem, unless the pain does not go away or awakens you from sleep.
- Pain with movement increases when you move the hip or leg but does not increase when you stand or bear weight. This type of pain is most often caused by a muscle injury, inflammation, or infection.
- Pain with weight-bearing increases when you stand or walk and may cause you to limp. This type of pain usually means you have a problem with the hip joint itself. Pain that is severe enough to prevent any weight-bearing is more likely to mean a serious bone or joint problem.

I'm a newbie, and i'm just setting up my site: http://www.alphascribe.co.uk/web. I need to upload a portfolio of work, but I have no idea how to resize the images to fit on one page (or attach a few pages to one tab). I currently have PDFS of the images- what format do I need to upload them? I'm using the Blackbird template.
Really hope you can help,

Famous South Korean Vegetarian Starts Eating Meat Because of Angelina Jolie
Over a year ago
Famous South Korean vegetarian singer Park Ki-Young recently stated on a popular talk show that she began eating meat again because of Angelina Jolie.
Ki-Young, who is several months pregnant, said that she began craving meat after smelling some beef cooking at a restaurant.
She decided to search the Internet for information about being vegetarian while pregnant and discovered that Angelina Jolie began eating meat again while pregnant.
Ki-Young figured that if Angelina Jolie did this there must be very good reason so she followed her example.
So, not only is Angelina's ignorance causing serious problems in North America but now in South Korea as well.
Thanks a lot Angelina.

Nope, the rumors started in 2009 when the DailyMail (BLECH) posted this article. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1200663/Angelina-Jolie-vetoes-Brad-Pitts-meat-plea-rainbow-brood.html
Then again in 2010 when the International Business Times posted this article: http://au.ibtimes.com/articles/47551/20100831/angelina-jolie-brad-pitt-angelina-jolie-movie-salt.htmYou must be logged in to reply to this topic.

That article is from January. The rumor that he has dropped meat from his diet (or is interested in dropping meat from his diet) really started spreading a few months after that article was published. Thanks for the link though.You must be logged in to reply to this topic.
