2011 Nissan Leaf SV 4dr Hatchback (3-phase, 4-pole electric DD)
Wish it had the Tesla range, but great for 105 mile range
We've only had our 2011 Leaf for two weeks but already we are in love with this car. Gas has gone up $.20 since my last fill up in my old car, so I'm already saving more money. The car has great "get up and go", it isn't anything like the hybrids you hear about not having any power to them. I can leave everyone at the stop light if I want to. The first few days I found myself speeding frequently.The interior is very comfortable, even for adults in the back seat. It sits up a little higher than the sedan I traded in, which is nice.This car is all electric so it's not for someone looking to drive it a long way. I only use it to commute to work and run errands so it's perfect.
No gas!
No oil changes!
No emissions checks!
Interior is made using recycled materials
Easy to use controls
2011 Nissan Leaf SL 4dr Hatchback (3-phase, 4-pole electric DD)
The lack of a battery capacity warranty has left dozens of warm-climate owners with cars that are no longer useful, and that are unsellable. There are no dealers in Phoenix, AZ that will take these cars as trade-ins because of the issues with the battery. After getting positive battery care reports, we can travel no more than 50 miles in our car that should go 80-100 miles. Nissan is changing it's story at every turn, and refuses to acknowledge a problem. Google: Real World Battery Capacity Loss, and you'll see the real deal with how Nissan treats it's customers. They do not stand behind this product. They got their 1.4 billion dollar loan, they don't need the LEAF anymore.
None, a car that can barely just get me to work and back is useless.
Capacity Warranty, Battery Thermal Management, Improved range, More knowledgable sales staff and technicians, truth in advertising.
I've had my 2011 Leaf for a month now.It's my only car.So far I've spent a grand total of $8.10 in electricity to drive 729 miles.In my previous car I was spending $180 a month in gasoline and probably another $50 in maintenance (if you averaged it out per month.)In the NW, off-peak power is $.044 / kwh. So, as you can see it's saving me about $220 / month. I've taken this car to every family event, errand and work daily.Not a single problem with range or anything else.I don't even need the 240v charger.The car is just great all around.Good room, good ride, excellent electronics, and decent handling.Acceleration is very good around town.
I love the electronics package!
The ride is very much like a luxury car and it's quieter than ANY gasoline vehicle I've ever ridden in.
Of course, the best feature of all is not paying for gas anymore, ever and no pollution from the car.
Obviously, a range increase would be nice, but with the West Green Highway network of DC Fast Chargers this is becoming a non-issue.
One other small annoyance, every time I start the car it asks for permission to send data to Nissan.
Can't they default that message to YES or NO?
I've really enjoyed owning and driving this car, which is now up to 10,000 miles. It is incredibly smooth, quiet and generally effortless to drive. The interior feels large, with plenty of room in the back for adults. The storage area is ample for the around-town usage dictated by the range. The range is occasionally a nuisance, but that's increasingly mitigated by charge stations. When my trips are well within the range, I have fun with the torque and the low center of gravity. So far it's getting about 30 miles per dollar, a fascinating new metric that really puts the sucking sound in the front of our minivan in perspective. (It's five times more expensive to drive that one a mile.)
Smooth, quiet, cheap miles
Could use a better horn, a light in the charge port, and a better menu for browsing songs on USB devices.

Wade LeBlancSeattle Mariners
Starting Pitcher | Ht: | Wt: 200
|Mariners | Wade LeBlanc hit hard in Houston
Wed, 06 Jul 2016 21:51:20 -0700
Seattle Mariners SP Wade LeBlanc surrendered five runs -- four earned -- on six hits in 3 1/3 innings against the Houston Astros on Wednesday, July 6. He walked one and struck out two.
Fantasy Tip: After two surprisingly strong starts, LeBlanc was hit early and often on Wednesday. The lefty looked to be gaining a little traction, and with the M's rotation still beset by injuries odds are he'll get another turn, but don't forget the 31-year-old hasn't held down a regular major-league job since 2010. At best he has a little short-term juice in AL-only setups.

|Mariners | Wade LeBlanc picks up victory
Fri, 01 Jul 2016 23:30:56 -0700
Seattle Mariners SP Wade LeBlanc allowed two earned runs, three hits and a walk with five strikeouts over six innings in a win Friday, July 1, against the Baltimore Orioles. He threw 52 of his 81 pitches for strikes in the quality start. It was his first victory since Sept. 23, 2014.
Fantasy Tip: LeBlanc played last season in Japan, and was in the minors until being acquired in a trade from Toronto June 22. He has looked good in each of his starts for the M's, but he is still only worth using in deeper AL-only fantasy leagues for the time being.

|Mariners | Nathan Karns heading to 'pen
Tue, 28 Jun 2016 16:20:30 -0700
Seattle Mariners SP Nathan Karns will head to the bullpen for the time being with SP Taijuan Walker (foot) going Thursday, June 30, and SP Wade LeBlanc starting Friday, July 1.
Fantasy Tip: It's not a permanent move for Karns, but it'll kill most of his limited fantasy value in the meantime. Walker has been up and down most of the year and is a high-risk, high-reward start against the Orioles Thursday. LeBlanc probably won't be long for a rotation spot and should be avoided against the powerful Baltimore lineup.

|Mariners | Wade LeBlanc dazzles in 2016 debut
Fri, 24 Jun 2016 23:04:30 -0700
Seattle Mariners SP Wade LeBlanc allowed just three hits and a walk over six scoreless innings against the St. Louis Cardinals on Friday, June 24.
Fantasy Tip: LeBlanc, who last appeared in the majors on Sept. 28, 2014, was lights out against a tough Cardinals lineup in his M's debut. Despite that, it's hard to envision a scenario where LeBlanc remains in that position long term, especially with three members of the rotation currently out of action.

|Mariners | Adrian Sampson placed on DL
Fri, 24 Jun 2016 16:50:46 -0700
Seattle Mariners SP Adrian Sampson (elbow) was placed on the 15-day disabled list Friday, June 24, because of a right flexor bundle strain. The team also optioned RP Tom Wilhelmsen to Class AAA Tacoma. Ps Wade LeBlanc, Donn Roach and David Rollins were recalled from Class AAA Tacoma.
Fantasy Tip: It is not known who will take Sampson's spot in the starting rotation, but Taijuan Walker could return in the near future. Walker has a decent ERA despite his 3-6 record and should be used against favorable matchups.

The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings
Was browsing various sites when I came across a video of The Witcher 2 Alpha.
Looks pretty sick to me, especially the combat.
Looks pretty good. I was wondering when we'll hear something about a sequel to The Witcher. I'm guessing that the main character voice actors haven't been brought in yet, since these voices sound like they're just there so we could hear something.
Oh, and :lol: at Geralt's ponytail.
WooHoo! I'll definitely keep an eye on this!
Oh ye gods....quicktime events. Why do devs persist with that god-awful crap?
Otherwise it seems promising. They've wisely ditched Bioware's clunky Aurora engine, which was a bizarre choice anyway (especially seeing as they completely gutted the Open GL renderer and wrote their own DirectX one from scratch). I'm not sure what new engine they are using, but I assume it must be 3rd party given the quick turn-around. It doesn't look to be Unreal 3, which is the 3rd party engine of choice. I wonder if it might be Bioware's Eclipse engine (what they built for Dragon Age). It has that same kind of semi-outdated look as DA, and the "whore" scene shows some pretty obvious clipping of the hair through the body mesh which is an Eclipse trait (Bioware completely copped out on body mesh collision detection, although that's not unique to them),.
Looks good.
@DP it's an Alpha, the clipping might well be fixed.
The official debut trailer is out - http://www.gametrailers.com/video/ex...-witcher/63501
They totally screwed up his face!
EDIT: Longer unedited version of the king-killer cutscene featured in the trailer here - http://www.gametrailers.com/user-mov...utscene/342270
Great visuals!
I never played the original Witcher so I don't exactly know what the whole story is about with this series. But I do know that I'm going to play both the original and the sequel sometime soon. (Like, July 2010 I think.)
I really like his old face better, this one just looks way too pretty boy.
Otherwise, looks like it might be good. Still need to finish the first one, though.
The new trailer looks great, but Geralt's new ponytail is still hilarious. Can't wait for this game.
Agreed, I much preferred his old head better. Knowing the community and CDRed though, a mod will be up within the month of release so I'm not worried. The face, hair, etc I can get over but what really, really bugs me is his eyes are human and not cat-like anymore. That, more than anything, gave his face the proper character.
Still though, awesome news. I actually liked the first game more that DA:O and it easily lists in my top 5 RPGs. It felt quite refreshing to be placed into a non player made character for a change. I am, however, sad to hear they are changing the combat system since I actually really loved the combat in Witcher, which is why it was so hard for me to go back to the combat in DA:O.
That, and it sort of bothered me how similar the Wardens were to the Witchers in concept. Both took basically poison to become what they were, few survived, and the end result was the ability to fight the world's monsters with much better ease at great personal sacrifice. Both used to be highly regarded, but are now trying to repair their image in the eyes of the people and many are after their secrets, destruction, and reboot.
Captivating, mature, and non-linear story-line, eh? How gritty.
Some in-game footage from CD Projekt RED's conference:
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
Part 4
The video quality is pretty piss-poor and it isn't helped by the constant flash photography. Still, it gives you an idea of where the game is at. It looks like they are going for more of an action-RPG style. Plus it seems they have caught Obsidian's disease and are going with timer-based dialogues, at least in part anyway.
Additionally, here are some comments from a dev on Geralt's funky new look - http://www.thewitcher.com/forum/inde...755#msg5397755
Seems that all DM's links but that for part 2 are dead. If you want to access the videos they are available here.
New developer diary on story:
Alt link - http://www.gametrailers.com/video/po...witcher/100992
IGN has a brief preview up from an E3 demo - http://pc.ign.com/articles/109/1098720p1.html
Sounds like the same demo that was show at CDPR's conference back in March, although the boss fight sounds new. Speaking of which, I don't like the sound of the button mashing Quicktime-esque stuff at all. Why do devs persist with that crap?
Can you see what I see?
The Wither 2 is the best E3 game at the moment! With huge advantage over The Old Republic MMO. Go witcher, go! :thmbup1:
Let's show Bioware what is better: great story-driven single player RPG or MMO based on great single player RPG. Your vote matter!
I only wish that crushing victory of The Witcher 2 will influence Bioware's (and Lucas Arts') bosses to make single player KotOR 3 :)
I like how they are drawing on local European cultural influences. No hamburgers and skateboards ;)
Hm. Hopefully the original game made CD Projekt enough money that they can afford better translators this time around...
I don't recall there being anything too bad, and if anything I actually preferred most of the original versions of those lines that were changed for the EE. The dialogue was fairly corny in places, but then what game dialogue isn't?
Here's a gameplay trailer from the prison level they've been showing off at the various conferences the last couple of months:
Takes the form of Triss and Zoltan telling slightly conflicting versions of the tale (with what would appear to be Dandelion sitting passed out to one side).
I've just watched the trailer myself and it's just pure genius :D The dialogues are smart and funny, action is fast and these tons of humour... just wait till the end (after The Witcher 2 logo).
New dev diary concerning the engine (part 1 of it anyway):
Some very interesting tidbits throughout, especially the brief peeks at their toolset. There's also a very obvious undertone that all the things they can do in this engine were driven by what they couldn't do in the first Witcher using their rehashed version of the clunky old Aurora engine.
There's some more footage of the prison break demo over at GameTrailers: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4 - unfortunately only low quality.
A lot of it has already been shown previously, but there's a couple of glimpses at the inventory, revamped potions, revamped fist-fights, revamped Witcher amulet, revamped sword enchanting, and some additional dialogue/cutscenes. As before, they show the same two alternative paths with the mother and son, although they mention there are actually 4 possible routes/outcomes for that particular quest. After exiting the jail/dungeon they pull back the camera for a nice look at the surrounding city (or at least it would be nice if the video were decent quality). After that is a brief bit of footage from a previously mentioned ghost battlefield with what would appear to be a heavily scripted boss battle of the horribly clichéd Achilles' Heel type.
Additionally, it would seem that CPR have taken the surprising move of offering a digital download version DRM-free via GOG.com. Apparently GOG is a "sister site", so is presumably owned by the same parent company or some-such, which was news to me. It's available for pre-order now. Apparently it's a one-off thing, as usually GOG sells old games, as their name implies.
There is not only digital version available for pre-order but also a very rich in content Collectors Edition and Premium Edition. And after buying the game you can download DLC exclusive for every seller. I'd get the one with Finisher Pack DLC myself, because I really liked the finishers in the first game. Unfortunately this DLC is not available in my region :( I hope it'll be released some time after premiere for everyone to get.
It's hardly a new tactic. It has been used for years by the RIAA and MPAA. All it does is catch the retards - it won't have any marked impact on the level of piracy. I'm sure their energy could be better spent on incentives for people that actually buy the game, not penalties for those that don't. At least they are ditching the DRM though. All that does is punish legit users.
All they are going to do (and all they actually can do) is monitor torrents and log IPs and then send them a threatening letter from a lawyer - exactly what the RIAA/MPAA do. Or, more accurately, what they pay other people to do. Again, it's not going to stop piracy or put even the slightest dent in it. All it is going to do is catch people stupid enough to use torrents, and even then the legal validity of the tactic is still somewhat hazy. It relies on scare tactics to a large degree. The game will still be pirated, all the extra content will still be pirated. As I said before, it's a wasted effort and just an alternative form of waving a big stick at people to try and scare them into buying the game.
Part 2 of the engine dev diary. Nothing earth shattering, but there are a few snippets about some of the middleware they are using and the unveiling of the system requirements (which are quite modest).
A new dev diary, this time focusing on characters (with the primary focus being on art direction):
Love how Polished the game looks.
I am definitely looking forward for this game.
New dev diary on locations:
I had to laugh at the comment about them creating an architectural style for Dwarves that they think could become as universal as Tolkien's take on Elves. Possibly just a tad presumptuous. Certainly given what they showed in the trailer at least.

MaryAnn Baenninger has agreed to a new five-year contract as president of the College of Saint Benedict. The term of the contract extends through June 30, 2015. Baenninger had informed the Board of Trustees in September that she was seeking employment on the East Coast for personal reasons involving her husband's health. In October, CSB began a search for a new president. The Board recently asked Baenninger to reconsider her decision to leave the college at the close of the academic year. Circumstances changed with her husband's health and she willingly agreed to a five-year contract. See the complete news release.
The live video broadcast of the Concert and Midnight Mass of Christmas at Saint John's Abbey will be available by going to saintjohnsabbey.org and clicking on the Midnight Mass link. The concert begins at 11:15 p.m. on Dec. 24. Mass begins at midnight. The Concert and Midnight Mass will include: Abbot John Klassen, OSB - celebrant; the St. John's Boys' Choir - Andre Heywood, conductor; the Saint John's Abbey Schola - Axel Theimer, conductor; the Collegeville Christmas Strings - David Arnott, conductor; Fr. Robert Koopmann, OSB - organist; Fr. Anthony Ruff, OSB - organist.
To celebrate Advent, the staff of CSB's Companions on a Journey Program has collected a thoughtful array of reflections from administrators, faculty, staff and students at CSB and SJU. They wanted to dig deeply into the rich scripture readings and hear how many voices in the campus communities have found a connection with the scriptures and their own daily lives. Hopefully, readers will gain a better understanding of how scripture fits into daily life and discover the many common experiences among us. Offering these reflections also gives readers the opportunity to practice taking the time - even if it's two minutes - to stop, be quiet and listen to the voice of the spirit. Read the reflections.
Every year, the Saint John's community cuts a large evergreen tree from its Arboretum to install in the Great Hall. Students, faculty, staff, monastics, guests and family members alike have often wondered, "How do you get such a HUGE tree into the Great Hall?" The answer: you pull it in!
See how it's done in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rd-XigVFVTY
By CSB/SJU Career Services
The end of the semester has arrived and students are ready for a break. One thing for students to remember is that winter break is an ideal time to explore careers and build a professional network. Informational interviews and job shadow experiences provide the opportunity to do just that. With only a few weeks of break, these can require a short time commitment, yet yield significant results. Read on to learn more.
Informational interviews are a way to obtain information about careers by talking directly to a person currently working in that field. Many information interviews are conducted in person, but the conversation may also be held over the phone. A typical information interview lasts between 30 and 60 minutes.
A job shadow can be done on its own or as a next step after an information interview. Conducting a job shadow will allow your student to observe the work environment and job duties of a particular career. Shadow experiences can range from one day, to a few days, to a week or longer depending on the individual and the occupation being explored.
First and second year students generally pursue information interviews and job shadow experiences to learn more about careers and to determine if the career is a good fit for them. Some students will also use this information to help decide on a major field of study. Third and fourth year students can certainly receive the same benefits as younger students, but also use these opportunities to network and make connections within the career field of their choice. It is not uncommon for students to learn of internship or full-time job opportunities through information interviews and job shadow experiences.
Here are three good tactics your student can use:
Illusionist Jared Sherlock, a junior at Saint John's University, will perform at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Jan. 22, and Saturday, Jan. 23, in Escher Auditorium, Benedicta Arts Center of the College of Saint Benedict. Sherlock's show, Night Games , fuses modern magic and illusions with comedy, dancing, storytelling and rock concert lighting to create a modern day variety show. Critically acclaimed for its collaborative and affecting performances, the company features a high energy and eclectic show for the young and young at heart. Sherlock is known nationally as a new and exciting young illusionist and entertainer. Sherlock has nearly 40 CSB and SJU students, faculty and staff helping him with the production. All ticket sales from January's performances will benefit the Saint Benedict's Monastery retirement fund and Saint John's Abbey retirement fund.

The Minnesota Private Colleges Job & Internship Fair is fast approaching: Feb. 16-17, 2010 at Minneapolis Convention Center. With participation from over 170 employers and 1,800 students, this is an event you don't want your student to miss! Job and internships fairs are a great way to network with multiple employers at one time, and in one location. Younger students often use the opportunity to network and learn about companies and future opportunities. Juniors and seniors often apply for internships and job opportunities, build networking contacts, and even have the opportunity to interview at the fair.
CSB/SJU Career Services has created a checklist for students of required steps to participate in the fair, so encourage your student to contact Career Services (Saint John's: ext. 3236, Saint Ben's: ext. 5707) as soon as possible for more information. Registrations will be accepted until Friday, Feb. 5.

Senators Unveil New Climate Bill Draft
WASHINGTON – A trio of senators seeking to break a congressional deadlock on climate legislation unveiled a proposal Thursday that combines caps on greenhouse-gas levels with new offshore oil-and-gas exploration and nuclear power plant incentives.
The outline offered by Sens. John Kerry (D., Mass.), Lindsey Graham (R., S.C.), and Joe Lieberman (I., Conn.) won praise from President Barack Obama who called it a "positive development." Mr. Obama is scheduled to attend the United Nations climate summit in Copenhagen next week along with other world leaders, and the U.S. is under pressure to offer commitments to make significant cuts in its consumption of fossil fuels.
But it's unclear whether the Kerry-Graham-Lieberman proposal will win over Democrats from heartland states and Republicans opposed to adopting caps on U.S. carbon emissions. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has put off consideration of a climate bill until spring and is focusing attention on health care and jobs.
Asked if there were any other Republican senators close to joining the three-senator group, Sen. Graham laughed and said, "No."
An aide to Sen. Kerry said, however, that talks were ongoing with a raft of different senators to try to win support and draft language that would win the 60 votes necessary to pass in the chamber.
The proposal by the three senators calls for setting a 17% target for greenhouse-gas reductions from 2005 levels by 2020. That's the same formula President Obama has offered to international negotiators at Copenhagen. That's weaker than the 20% target set in a bill that passed out of a Senate committee last month.
The proposal also would require the federal government share oil and natural-gas revenues with states. Such a provision is strongly opposed by energy panel chairman Sen. Jeff Bingaman, (D., N.M.) but seen as essential by the industry to attract support from many states.
Scott Segal, an attorney at Bracewell & Giuliani that represents power providers and manufacturers, said the proposal's unlikely to be a game-changer. Senators most enthusiastic for quick climate change legislation won't likely tolerate either a sustained effort for new nuclear plants or expanded offshore drilling, he said.
"While these concepts make great sense as energy policy, one could easily see votes dropping off in equal measure to votes being gained were they included," Mr. Segal said.

How do I remove a closet shelf that is flush against the closet wall with just a brace in the middle? The brace is not a problem, but the shelf looks like it's glued in. It has a 2 X 1(maybe) X 72 (closet length). And two small braces on each end about 2 ft in length X maybe 1" wide.
Most likely nailed from above into braces.
May be glued and/or caulked, so run a utility knife or window razor (single straight edge razor in a holder).
Then, as suggested by DA01 and Jacob S, wack upwards with a rubber mallet or a regular hammer into a block of wood

Ride of a lifetime
Did anybody see this crazy crash yesterday? An 88-year-old man in a station wagon flew off the roof of the Harvard Market and landed a story below on Broadway with only minor injuries. And no pedestirans were squashed in the process. Nuts! The facts don't quite add up, either. Someone's foot must have been on the gas pedal.

Downs back in starting lineup
A couple of notes with four minutes to tipoff.
Senior Micah Downs is expected to start tonight against San Francisco. He lost the starting job to Steven Gray prior to the Tennessee game in Knoxville on Jan. 7, but Gray has struggled in three of the last four games. Gray had just three points against Saint Mary's, five against Memphis and zero against San Diego. Gray scored 14 against Portland.
Downs had 13 points vs. Memphis and four points and three boards against the Gaels.
Also, the Zags are wearing the black uniforms they debuted on Thursday in Moraga.

Enjoyed this, my cousin and I made it together, and enjoyed it with pasta. Liked the sherry in this, and also the feta. Thanks Lynn, made for ZWT9, Panthers On The Prowl.
*Made for Australia/NZ Swap #77* This was SUPER yummy !! Prepared with 1 pound of shrimp and 1/2 sauce ingredients. DH and I almost polished it off -- just a tad left for somebody's lunch. Very different without any tomato, but the paprika fools the eye with color. I had leftover soft jasmine rice, which soaked up the sauce nicely. Wish I had made the whole recipe ! Thanks for posting, Lynn !
There were 4 of us here to consume this great tasting dish, so I made the recipe as given, although I did substitute 1 teaspoon of lemon pepper for the usual S&P! The combo of herbs & spices gave this a very nice flavor! Thanks for sharing it! [Tagged & made in Please Review My Recipe]

Hoping someone can give me a quick answer, or even hop over to the debate team board and answer on the "another 'sexual habits' question" thread? I commented there regarding some Jewish rules regarding marriage and mentioned that I thought in Islam a man is supposed to satisfy his wife first. Now I'm not sure, just thought I'd heard/read that somewhere. Can someone confirm if I'm right and give me some sort of reference? A woman on the board says her muslim hubby was taught sex was solely for procreation etc, but that just doesnt fit with conversations with muslim ladies Ive had before here, (old BC board) and elsewhere? Also, she mentioned female circ, I'm certain this is regional/cultural and nothing to do with Islam at all? Am I right? Again if you have some reference I can show that would be appreciated.
Thanks for your help!

Twenty minutes after it was over, Morgan Glassford still could hardly catch her breath.
"I'm sorry. I'm just really excited," she said, exasperated, during an interview.
As a senior on the Strath Haven girls' lacrosse team, which clinched a share of the Central League title on Tuesday, Glassford had plenty to be excited about.
Glassford scored four goals and added two assists to lead the Panthers to a 12-11 home victory against Harriton.
With a win, the Rams would have captured the Central League title outright, but with a four-way tie atop the league, it is shared by Strath Haven, Harriton, Springfield (Delco), and Radnor.

Murray & Roberts Offer Almost Three Times Oversubscribed
Murray & Roberts Holdings Ltd., South Africa's second-biggest construction company, said its rights offer announced in February was almost three times oversubscribed.
Investors sought 110.5 million rights-offer shares, equivalent to 97.9 percent of the 112.8 million offered, Johannesburg-based Murray & Roberts said in a statement today. Holders of rights willing to buy more stock applied for a further 207 million shares, equivalent to 183.5 percent of the total offered. The subscription price was 18 rand a share.
"The net proceeds from the rights offer will be deployed to reduce the group's debt," Chief Executive Officer Henry Laas said in a statement. The strengthening of Murray & Roberts finances "will provide additional support to our recovery and growth plan."
Murray & Roberts posted a loss of 528 million rand ($67 million) in the six months through December. Last year it resolved not to pay dividends until liquidity improves following a slowdown in South African spending on infrastructure and unresolved claims with projects in its home market and Dubai. Murray & Roberts, which helped build the Gautrain rapid-rail network that links Johannesburg and Pretoria, also has operations in Australia.
Murray & Roberts fell 3.8 percent to 27.29 rand at the close in Johannesburg, the biggest drop since Jan. 31. The stock has climbed 18 percent this year, compared with a 19 percent gain in the FTSE/JSE Africa Construction & Building Materials index.

Putnam County, West Virginia Court Officials Are Blasted In Editorial
By Mark Hallburn
Publisher, PutnamLIVE.com
In a scathing editorial, much of which contains language PutnamLIVE.com will not publish, the Gilmer County Free Press takes aim at Putnam County Family Court Judge William M. "Chip" Watkins, III, and West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals Administrator Steven D. Canterbury.
"I think the judge is embarrassed and certainly contrite about his outburst, and I think he has rightfully recused himself," Canterbury is quoted as saying.
"Really?! You have to be kidding me right… contrite? "Disgusting! What if Judge Watkins had killed someone? Would it relieve him of consequences because he is contrite?" the Free Press states. "Well now, I wonder if any defendants have come before this judge who were relieved of the charges because they were CONTRITE!
"It would seem a shame if contrition were not enough for those defendants, but the same contrition were enough for their judge. Huh… only in West Virginia where they all hold degree's from WVU the University that gives degree's away if you are part of the local power elite!
"After screaming at the pastor to "Shut up" and accusing him of feeding a negative story about Watkins to the media, Watkins adds, "Because of you, my wife is there alone, and my house has been vandalized four times. You realize that, of course, as I'm sure you're probably in on it and laughing about it."
Watkins falsely thought that Pastor Art Hage was behind an article publishing that Watkins threatened Lawrence Smith, a freelance reporter. Hage had nothing to do with the article or this photograph of Watkins' home which has a published address and is not located in a gate community:
The judge continues by saying "You, you disgusting piece of …" and "I swear to you. You're responsible. I'm holding you personally responsible for anything that happens to my house."
In what appears to be the world's most obvious point, Watkins states, "I promise you that if I see so much as anyone blanketing my home, my wife, my family, you and me are going to have a problem. …"
Notably, Watkins appears to start to recuse himself after saying "Well, buddy, it's personal. It's personal, and I can promise you, you will not hear the end of if from me."
It would seem recusal at that point is inevitable. However, Watkins stops himself and again starts to beat up on the pastor, including some remarkable threats … "Please understand that. I will resign this bench and I will personally see to it that you never see a free day in your life. Do you understand? You're going to jail,. I swear to God."
The Free Press states, "Watkins is embarrassed after becoming an Internet sensation. However, the video reveals conduct that is shocking and raises serious questions about Watkins' suitability as a judge. Notably, absent such a video, it is doubtful that the pastor could have forced a recusal in the case. While most judges in this country are professional and civil, we often see judges behaving badly in court by unnecessarily berating and screaming at both lawyers and litigants."
The comments made in the Free Press editorial are public, but remarkably similar to many made privately about Watkins and Canterbury by people who are outraged at their conduct but afraid of retaliation by Watkins and the West Virginia Family Court system.

2008 Robo Calls Were From Obama Campaign, Not Clinton.
posted by February 8 at 10:40 AMon
Hey, false alarm on the dirty tricks.
I called Meyer Associates, the robo-call firm in Minnesota.
Spokesperson Melony Sik tells me Meyer was in fact hired by Obama.
It was a mess up there and not a Clinton dirty trick. "We got the date wrong. We're aware of it."
Sik couldn't tell me how many screwy calls went out, but says their call list was in the thousands. She says correction calls are going out now.
I called the Obama campaign and they said they were aware of Meyer's screw up. They guessed that Meyer's script confused the Washington caucus (Saturday the 9th) and Maine's caucus…which is Sunday, the 10th.

Watch Griz Highlights
Griz football gets better every week. Watch some highlights from the Liberty game.
Griz football gets better every week. Watch some highlights from the Liberty game.
Well, it wasn't what you'd call a big jump, but it's one more step towards the top of the rankings.
Hey, since the football team is on the road, you might enjoy taking in some volleyball Friday and Saturday. And there's plenty!
Runners, the fifth annual Homecoming Hustle starts moments before the parade on September 22nd. And you can participate.
The Griz play at Appalachian State this Saturday. See what the ASU fans are saying about the game.
The latest edition of an inside look at Griz football is up and there's a new blog up as well. Check them out!
Deputy Missoula County Attorney Shaun Donovan says former Grizzly football player Beau Donaldson will accept a plea agreement with the Missoula County Prosecutor's office of guilty to sexual intercourse without consent.
A few noteworthy numbers to savor from the Montana Grizzlies' 35-24 season opening win over South Dakota.
The University of Montana is using a multitude of avenues to address the high-profile problem with sexual assaults both on and off campus. One of those efforts is a video tutorial that every student must take…and pass with a perfect score.
Getting to and from a Griz game has never been easier than riding the bus. Beach Transportation has been providing top notch shuttle service to the games for years...
So, you can't make it to the Grizzly football game on Saturday, and you'd like to watch it on TV.
Every week get an inside look at the Griz.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama sacked his loose-lipped Afghanistan commander Wednesday, a seismic shift for the military order in wartime, and chose the familiar, admired — and tightly disciplined — Gen. David Petraeus to replace him. Petraeus, architect of the Iraq war turnaround, was once again to take hands-on leadership of a troubled war effort.
KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — America's Afghan and international allies embraced the choice of Gen. David Petraeus to run the war in Afghanistan, hoping the architect of the Iraq surge will seamlessly pursue the strategy laid down by his predecessor and smooth over divisions that led to his dismissal.
By naming Petraeus, President Barack Obama managed to replace Gen. Stanley McChrystal without derailing the mission at a critical juncture in the war, when casualties are rising and public support in the West is waning.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Mortgage rates fell this week to the lowest level on record, giving consumers added incentive to lock in low payments for home purchases and refinanced loans.
The average rate for 30-year fixed loans sank to 4.69 percent, from 4.75 percent last week, mortgage company Freddie Mac said Thursday.
That's the lowest point since Freddie Mac began tracking rates in 1971. The previous record of 4.71 percent was set in December. Rates for 15-year and five-year mortgages also hit lows.
SANTA FE — More New Mexicans turned out to vote in the June primary than they did four years ago when Republicans and Democrats cast ballots in a gubernatorial election year, according to official results released Tuesday.
About 28 percent of registered Democrats and Republicans participated in the primary.
Faced with what appeared to be a daunting agenda, Los Alamos County Councilors instead made swift work of 11 public hearings during Wednesday night's special meeting at Fire Station No. 3 in White Rock. Public turnout was sparse for discussion of various amendments to the county charter that were billed as "clean up" of language that was either ambiguous or in conflict with state law.
The arraignment Thursday of a Los Alamos youth minister on child pornography charges has sent shock waves rippling through this close-knit community. The minister and former teacher was apprehended June 23 at his residence in White Rock by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) special agents.
The arrest of Matthew Nichols, 58, came just a day after a federal grand jury indicted him on child pornography charges, including distributing and attempting to distribute, receiving, and possessing child pornography.
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama declared victory Friday after congressional negotiators reached a dawn agreement on a sweeping overhaul of rules overseeing Wall Street.
BRIDGEPORT, Conn. (AP) — A severe storm packing ferocious winds tore through Connecticut's largest city Thursday, toppling trees and power lines and collapsing several buildings as a powerful line of storms swept across parts of the Northeast. Remarkably, no serious injuries were reported.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The government lowered its estimate of how much the economy grew in the first quarter of the year, noting that consumers spent less than it previously thought.
Gross domestic product rose by an annual rate of 2.7 percent in the January-to-March period, the Commerce Department said Friday. That was less than the 3 percent estimate for the quarter that the government released last month. It was also much slower than the 5.6 percent pace in the previous quarter.
An international team of astronomers, including Michael Kramer from the Max-Planck-Institut fuer Radioastronomie in Germany has studied the behavior of natural cosmic clocks and discovered a way to potentially turn them into the best timekeepers in the Universe. The scientists made their breakthrough using decade-long observations from the 76-m Lovell radio telescope at the University of Manchester's Jodrell Bank Observatory to track the radio signals of an extreme type of star known as pulsars.

Boris the giant schnauzer has been put down.
The 6-year-old was sentenced to death last week in the Thames
District Court after attacking a woman at a Whitianga
bed-and-breakfast last October.
Jennifer Layton, who pleaded guilty to owning a dog that
attacked a person, had been considering going to the High
Court in a bid to save him.
But after another person laid a complaint about an incident
involving Boris late last year, she gave up any further legal
action and said goodbye to her beloved dog, which was
destroyed on Wednesday morning.
"They [the Thames Coromandel District Council] were entitled
to come and take him away with a police escort at any time of
the day," Mrs Layton said. "I was beside myself. It was just

with an appeal against being disqualified from owning a dog
for five years.
Mr Leith said Mrs Layton and her husband, Brian, were

"When two pensioners are up against the resources of the
Thames Coromandel District Council, it simply isn't a fair
fight," he said.
Mrs Layton said she felt "dead", having spent $3800 on
training for Boris with animal trainer Mark Vette to rectify
his issues and change his living space.

I have an address zone (let's say
126.96.36.199/16) and I want to subnet it optimally using VLSM. I have a number of VLANs, each with a minimum number of needed addresses, and a couple of router-to-router connections.
How many addresses are needed for a router-to-router connection (that is considered as a subnetwork)?
Is it four? One for each router, the broadcast address and the network address?

The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a valuable tool used in both research and molecular diagnostic laboratories because of its specificity, efficiency, fidelity, and relative ease of use.
Quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) enables sensitive and accurate quantitative measurement of nucleic acids. Both qPCR and reverse transcriptase PCR (RT-qPCR) are used across a wide range of applications such as gene expression, SNP genotyping, copy-number analysis, pathogen detection, drug target validation, and measurement of RNA interference (RNAi).
The quality of qPCR and RT-qPCR results can be negatively affected by many experimental variables. To ensure the validity of assay results, sample extraction and preparation steps must be closely monitored, and the starting material must be well characterized before performing RT and qPCR assays.
Slight differences in pipetting, lack of instrument calibration, improper choice of reference genes, incorrect quantification, and/or use of impure nucleic acid templates can generate erroneous, but believable, results. Therefore, the use of standardized best practices to ensure reliable and meaningful results is recommended. To address the need for standardized qPCR practices, the Minimum Information for Publication of Quantitative Real-Time PCR Experiments (MIQE) guidelines have been developed.
The MIQE guidelines define the minimum information necessary for proper evaluation of qPCR experiments and publications. By detailing all relevant experimental conditions and assay characteristics, the validity of the protocols used can be thoroughly assessed. Complete disclosure of all reagents, sequences, and analysis methods used enables other investigators to reproduce results.
The guidelines address several general categories including sample preparation, QC of nucleic acids, RT, qPCR assay, and data analysis. They also include an extensive checklist of "essential" or "desirable" items to be included in each of the following sections: experimental design, sample, nucleic acid extraction, RT, target information, primers and probe, qPCR protocol, qPCR validation and data analysis.
Most of the MIQE guidelines can be adopted quickly. Adoption of the "essential" items ensures that key variables affecting data quality are addressed, which, in turn, increases the degree of confidence in the results and the conclusions drawn. Adoption of some or all of the "desirable" items further ensures that a comprehensive approach is being taken to obtain quality data.
For instance, the guidelines recommend the disclosure of the probe sequence as highly desirable and strongly encouraged, but not all vendors of predesigned assays provide this information. Thermo Fisher Scientific provides probe sequences for all Solaris qPCR gene-expression assays.

I don't know - I've had some vegan cupcakes that were indistinguishable from conventional.
You are correct that a segment of humans have evolved to take advantage of the milk production of other animals. That's been pretty beneficial to us as a species. But the traditional, pastoral production of milk that coincided with that evolution bears almost no resemblance to the industrialized production of milk in the modern world. There are plenty of legitimate problems about industrial dairy - and not just for the cows! - that are worth discussing out in the open. It doesn't have to be either 1) you don't give a shit about how the milk is produced orwhat's in it so long as it is plentiful and cheap, or 2) you're a dreadlocked vegan stridently and smugly preaching about the evil wrought by humans.
I, for one, welcome this development. So much food is wasted in industrialized societies - it is sickening. Past-date milk is one of the worst examples. If milk has a longer shelf life, then the entire industry can operate more efficiently, which ought to 1) reduce prices for consumers and 2) reduce pressure on producers to treat their livestock so shittily in the quest to produce more cheaply

A couple of days ago one of our web-servers went down in the small hours. It wasn't responding to any remote requests (to be honest I don't know if it would have responded if a USB keyboard and monitor were plugged into it) and an engineer at the data-center rebooted the server for us.
Everything came back up ok, and I then checked the event logs to see if there were any clues as to what went wrong. All I can really see is the event "the previous shutdown at 1AM was unexpected" (which is the time the server went down, not the time the engineer hit the power button).
The server has IIS - but obviously the website logs just shows the file requests leading up to the crash (or freeze) and there's no increase in the volume of traffic prior to the crash. SQL Server is also installed, but the logs just report that a dozen or so transactions were rolled forward when the server came back up.
Is there anything else I can look at to find a possible cause for the crash?

Ravens are playing their best football in all phases right now. I can understand why some would pick them. I just think the 49ers are more talented, faster, and dynamic.
I think the 49ers will stop Ray Rice and make them one-dimensional. A common misconception is that Rice is a very powerful runner. His yards after contact average was one of the worst among starting RB's. He's a slippery runner, but we have the best tackling defense in the league. He's not Marshawn Lynch or Adrian Peterson. Last year, we held him to 59 yards on 21 carries behind the same O-line (only difference being Osemele at LG). My biggest concern with Rice is him catching the football out of the backfield. We've done a nice job sniffing out RB screens lately.
Assuming we stop the run, I question the Ravens' ability to consistently beat us through the air. Flacco has been exceptional this postseason, but not unstoppable. He's only completing 54% of his passes. They've beaten teams deep over the top, and they will take plenty of shots against us. Taking away the deep ball is key, because I don't think they are capable of racking up 1st downs through the air against us. We should know what to expect. We've beaten better QB's with better passing options all year long.
It will be interesting to see how the Ravens choose to defend us. I hear a lot of analysts say all you have to do to stop the read-option is hit the QB constantly. Against our pistol set, it's not that simple. Often times we have Bruce Miller in the backfield to block the free rusher, adjusting his blocking angle depending on whether the QB keeps it or hands it off. Kaep has not been touched all postseason for a reason.
Offensively, we'll line up mostly in 2 TE sets. This is great for a few reasons. The Ravens have not defended well against 2 TE sets, and they have been vulnerable to the play-action pass. Since Kaep has been starting, we have been the best play-action team in the NFL. Pollard is an in-the-box safety, and he will have to play there if they want to stop our running attack. This leaves them susceptible to our play-action. Their best corner has been their nickel back, Corey Graham, who comes off the field in 2 TE sets. The starting corners, Williams and Brown, can be beaten consistently. Expect Crabtree and Moss to have nice games.
We also know that the Ravens will have to play a lot of zone coverage. No way they play man-coverage and turn their backs on Kaep, especially on 3rd down. Even then, Kaep has shown the ability to knife through the defense. His yards per attempt is actually higher than Flacco's, and his completion % is nearly 10 percentage points higher. Flacco throws a pretty ball, but Kaep has been the better passer.
Gore and James behind this O-Line has been a lethal combination. Nobody has had an answer for it yet. The Ravens were not very good against the run this year, and part of that has been due to injury. One guy that has been healthy is Haloti Ngata. He has the ability to be a game-wrecker, but even with him in the lineup, the Ravens have not been good at stuffing running plays at the line. They've improved in the postseason once they got Ray Lewis and Ellerbe healthy, but you can get to the 2nd level against these guys. With our diverse running game, Lewis and Ellerbe will have to be sideline-to-sideline players, which is not their strength.
Obviously I'm a bit biased, but all analysis of the matchups and schemes point towards the 49ers winning. This year we have two balanced teams, but the 49ers are younger, faster, more talented, and are doing some innovative things on offense. It's our time, and I honestly feel we will be too much for the Ravens to handle. Everyone is predicting a close game, but not me. We win by 2 scores.

Okay so I am totally new at wordpress but not at coding.
I want two separate pages linked from the menu.
One should contain simple hierarchical reviews of stuff we own (us two doing the blog, no user reviews) - if anyone knows a free plugin let me know, other wise i will code it up myself.
And one page that lists data from our own database, very straightforward really but it is from our own database generated from other servers.
It's all very simple stuff really, and I found a few ways i can hack it in but now I want to know. What is the proper way of making this?
should i make a plugin? a custom page template or use php execution on pages or something else. Love to know :-)

Working out while not really working is the concept behind a trend known as passive exercise. But does it really work?
You're lying on the sofa, maybe munching a bag of chips, and watching your favorite movie on DVD. And ... you're toning your abs? That's the picture painted by some proponents of passive exercise, a fitness trend based on the idea that you can pretty much do nothing and still work out, if you have the right equipment doing the work for you.
But could this really work? WebMD asked three experts to offer up their opinions on four of the top passive exercise trends: whole-body vibration, chi machines, electronic ab stimulators, and inversion boots. So grab that bag of veggie chips, prop up your feet, and read on -- their answers might surprise you!
Whole-Body Vibration
By far the most popular new addition to the passive exercise category is whole-body vibration or WBV -- also known as "Power Plate" exercise. An outgrowth of a program used to train Russian cosmonauts, it quickly spread through Europe and Japan, then hit U.S. shores -- with whole centers now devoted to this workout.
How It Works: According to physical therapist and personal trainer Ben Quist, DPT, most people stand on the platform with knees bent at about a 30-degree angle, while the surface beneath their feet vibrates an astounding 30 times per second.
That vibration, says Quist, tricks the body into thinking you're falling. "This, in turn, activates the 'stress reflex' -- an extremely rapid muscle contraction," says Quist, owner of Form and Fitness, a Milwaukee health club and rehabilitation center, where he has been training patients on the Power Plate for over a year. These muscle contractions, says Quist, are responsible for most of the benefits attributed to this type of exercise.
The Promise: According to manufacturers, those benefits include increased circulation, muscle strength, and flexibility; better range of motion; core conditioning and stability; and faster muscle recovery after working out. They say the health benefits also include enhanced metabolism, increased bone mineral density, reduction of the stress hormone cortisol, elevation of human growth hormone levels, and improved lymphatic flow. Whole-body vibration is also said to reduce cellulite and stimulate collagen production for smoother skin. Manufacturers also say MBV can provide muscle toning and conditioning for those who have health restrictions that keep them from exercising, such as multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, and some forms of arthritis.

a thermometer made of glass has a capillary tube of diameter 0.1mm. If 1.00 cm^3 of mercury is filled in the bulb plus part of the tube, by how many mm will the mercury rise if its temp increases from 20 deg Celsius to 30 deg Celsius? The volumetric expansion coefficient of mercury is 1.82 x 10^-4/celsius. Ignore any changes in the glass
I got .35 as an answer but could you show me how you work it out.
