THIBODAUX -- An Evangeline Parish man now faces charges in two sexual assaults that happened in a four-day span on the same street in Cut Off in January.
Authorities charged Brian Lasage, 39, 1937 James Ortego Road, Mamou, with aggravated rape and simple burglary today in connection with the Jan. 5 rape of a 24-year-old woman inside her home on East 37th Place, Lafourche sheriff's spokeswoman Lesley Hill Peters said.
Two days earlier on Monday, Lasage was charged with sexual battery and aggravated burglary in connection with a Jan. 9 sexual assault of a different 24-year-old woman inside her home on the same street.
Lasage faces mandatory life in prison if convicted of aggravated rape. He is being held at the Lafourche Parish jail in lieu of a $1,265,000 bond.
Probation and Parole have a hold on Lasage, meaning he won't be freed even if he posts the bond. Lasage allegedly violated parole by not registering as a sex offender in Lafourche, where he was employed. He has been jailed on the failure to register as a sex offender charge since Jan. 10.
On Monday, Sheriff Craig Webre said that charging Lasage in the Jan. 5 incident would be more difficult than charging him in the Jan. 9 incident because there was less physical evidence to work with.
While Webre said in a written statement Lasage was cooperating with the investigation, the sheriff did not say whether a confession, a newly analyzed piece of evidence or something else led to Lasage's second sexual assault charge.

Production tax credits would stimulate economy
Two weeks ago, Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus (D-MT) announced that he would attempt to pass an economic stimulus package independent from the House package. Last week, he pulled one together which proposed to extend the renewable energy production tax credit (PTC) for renewable energy. (Good move, Chairman.)
But for political reasons, the PTC extension is under serious threat despite the fact that in a slowing economy, renewable energy is a growing sector that, with the right steps, promises to create jobs and market growth.
Over the last week the American Wind Energy Association (AWEA) has released a series of statements explaining that if the PTC lapses, 75,000 wind-related jobs will be at-risk. Monday, the AWEA and the Solar Energy Industries Association (both trade groups) released a study showing that combined, 116,000 jobs and $19 billion in investment will be lost if the PTC lapses.
So why is this package being opposed?
Since Baucus' proposal does not mirror what Speaker Pelosi and the Bush administration agreed upon (it's larger), Republican Senators are lining up against it simply along party lines and without considering the substance. They plan on arguing that a PTC extension is not a stimulant, but they're misled (see above stats). (It's also worth noting that the PTC provision was taken out of the energy bill as part of the deal to remove the tax and subsidy breaks the oil companies were losing, not because of the PTC itself. Unfortunately, its removal was overlooked and since neglected.)
Whenever the production tax credit has been allowed to expire, investment and the related industries have suffered (see chart). At this point in time – given our economic and energy dilemmas – refusing to extend the PTC jeopardizes a crucial sector of the economy otherwise on the rise. As Senators consider the package, hopefully any debate over the bill can prove this provision an economic stimulant.
— Kari M.

Good point. The same could be said for signing the proposed increase in CHIPS funding, which Bush has vetoed twice. On the environmental front, it could be argued that it would be better still to have no stimulus package at all. Americans spend more than they earn, so the "solution" of making it easier for them to borrow and spend makes little sense. It just bottles things up for the next crisis, which will be worse. I have blogged this in more detail on http://tonysclimateblog.blogspot.com.
The correct link to Tony's blog is http://tonysclimateblog.blogspot.com/
It's also worth noting that federal policy leaves the US renewable industry in a compromised position internationally, unable to compete on a level playing field.
Germany's national law is attracting US clean tech jobs: http://solveclimate.com/blog/20080204/national-law-helps-germany-attract-us-clean-tech-jobs
China is poised to become the #1 maker of wind turbines in 2009:
And more generally, China's clean energy performance is outpacing the US's
Lots more evidence like this all over the place.

How to update BIOS using InsydeFlas
Hello, i have bought a new HP laptop pavilion g4 2049tx model. I downloaded all drivers and also the BIOS.
As written on website the bios is new f.22 and i checked that my current bios is f.13 , this shows that i can update my bios.
Now that i have downloaded the bios setup sp 60109 , i clicked on it and then came some unpacking and it opened up insyde flash. It asked for current bios version & id and new bios version & id in boxes but i can't type anything. Other buttons i could find are start flash and quit.
I pressed quit but then i clicked on bios setup again, this time it asked whether to over write files and i clicked on yes. Then i got little more files than before extracted into the folder and c driver including the flashbios.exe
I know updating to latest bios is always good but there are also fine chances to brick my laptop. I have used winflash earlier to update bios on other laptop but i don't understand how to do it on insydeflash.
Can someone help me update my bios and also suggest if it's safe to do with insydeflash though latest is good to have?
Re: How to update BIOS using InsydeFlas
Can you let me know the following.
What operating system are you using?
Do you have the HP_TOOLS partition present?

Re: How to update BIOS using InsydeFlas
The operating system i'm using is windows 8 pro 64-bit.
No i don't have a hp tools partition( quiet sure ) because the laptop came with free-dos and i installed my os later.
Re: How to update BIOS using InsydeFlas
If you wish to update the bios, I'd suggest creating the HP_TOOLS partition as this will allow the bios flash to run in an UEFI environment which is a much safer option than running it in Windows.
You can create this partition by downloading and running the installer on the following link - during the installation, select to create the partition on the Hard Drive.
When created, restart the notebook.
When windows has fully reloaded, download and run the bios installation file from the following link.
Instead of the flash running in Windows, after the file has extracted, you will be prompted to restart the notebook - the flash will then take place in the UEFI environment before loading into Windows. Once started, do not interrupt the process in any way.

Re: How to update BIOS using InsydeFlas
That's fine.. uhmm can i delete the hp_tools partition after the process is over?
Regarding bios it already extracted everything into my c:\SWSetup\sp60109 after i ran it second time. Do i need the delete this folder and run it again..? After it shows the insyde flash screen what should i do? All i can see is start flash, exit and boxes below current bios id and version, same way for new bios where i can put my cursor but can't type anything.
Re: How to update BIOS using InsydeFlas
PS: Please let me know if i really have to update my BIOS. Currently cpu-z shows that i have F.13 insyde bios. Since the laptop is new there are no problems.Should i go for it? Y/N I know it can brick the laptop.
Neverthless explain me the procedure of how to use insydeflash to update bios.
Re: How to update BIOS using InsydeFlas
Personally, if the update doesn't correct a problem you're experiencing or add extra functionality that you require, I would not update the Bios.
Regarding the bios installation software, the boxes you mention are populated by the installer, there's nothing you should, or are able, enter here.
If you still want to proceed with the flash, maybe the easiest option, once you've created the HP_TOOLS partition is to download and install HP Support Assistant from the following link.
During the installation of HPSA, you will be asked how you wish the program to apply updates - choose the option that lets you choose which updates to apply.
When installed, launch HPSA and get it to check for all available updates - once the list is prepared, enter a checkmark against the Bios Update only and then click Download - when HPSA has downloaded and unpacked the file, you will get a prompt to restart the notebook. At restart, the notebook will enter the UEFI environment and the flash will take place - there may be a couple or so restarts after this, but then the notebook will load into Windows.
If you wish, HPSA can then be uninstalled and HP_TOOLS can be removed in the same way as any other partition.

Re: How to update BIOS using InsydeFlas
Re: How to update BIOS using InsydeFlas
Prior to installation of the uefi support (sp58404) i checked in partition , there are 2 more drives other than logical drives.One says recovery 300mb and other efi 100mb.
So even after i installed sp58404 i didn't see the hp_tools partition in my computer after restarting laptop.
Anyways, i successfully updated my bios to f.22 . The fan ran really loud at full swing for about 5-10 min during the install and flash got over. Now, i will safely uninstall hp support assistant from add/remove...
How do i get to remove hp_tools partition as you said.? I can find only my 3 logical partitions and the dvd rom in My computer.

DD will be 2 in February, and while she IS a peanut..I'm still having a hard time deciding which size diaper to buy for her. She's wearing size 4 or 5 Luvs, which - despite the weird/narrow fit - have NEVER leaked on us! In the size 4's, it seems like I have to try to center her booty a bit, but they can hold what's dished out to 'em! The 5's seem to be a bit wide/tall so I have to fold them over a bit. Any opinions on which to stick with as the 4's are obviously a better deal for the $, but want her to be comfortable.
ETA: At her last check-up a couple of months ago she was only she was a little over 22 lbs., so she's probably within the weight range of size 4 still. Maybe she just has a big booty?

2. Simmer till the meatballs are cooked inside and sauce thickens (at least 1/2 hour.)
3. Transfer to slow cooker on warm for serving.
More ideas
rattletrap1970 7y agoI like these for their sweet/hot flavor. You can adjust the hot simply with more or less hot sauce. The hot sauces chosen do not add a lot of their own flavor, they add a sort of "hot from nowhere" to the dish. [I posted this recipe.]

"Guild Wars 2" is a game that has a huge potential for expansion in the future. Some of you may recall my excitement back in September of last year when I found out about the discovery of actual, in-game maps and globes that showed how large the world of Tyria actually was. This was something that we never got a glimpse of in the original title, and although later I discovered that there were globes of the world available in places like the main base of the Order of Whispers, I had never paid attention to them before.
A good example of what the overall world looks like can be seen here.
Before I talk about the map above, I should point out that the globes the Priory has in-game are actually not complete at all. They seem to be created by simply stretching the current, in-game map onto a globe, which gives a strange effect. This is in no way canon because Elona, Istan, and Cantha, among other places, are not represented there.
On Friday, it was pointed out to me that a fan had come up with a map that projected where some future content would be. This was accomplished by the fan paying attention to where currently sealed-off gates in the game could be found, such as the gates that lead into the Dominion of Winds or beyond the walls of Ebonhawke and out into the Crystal Desert. But, what is really interesting about this map they came up with is the fact that they have estimated where some of the currently unused Asura Gates in Lion's Arch might lead. This was accomplished through noticing that the gates that exist point in the relative direction of where they lead. Thus, the creator of this map looked at where the unused gates in Lion's Arch were pointing and projected lines from there. As we can see, one looks like it leads southeast towards Amnoon Oasis (from GW1), one leads in a more easterly direction, possibly to that area in the southern part of the mountains. Another leads off towards the Maguuma Wastes, one up towards Janthir, another up towards the north, potentially to the area north of Divinity's Reach or even beyond there, and finally one leading up towards the frozen north, maybe where Jormag is at.
Very neat, if you ask me, and I think it is something that does show where the more immediate future of the game might take us!

Early in 1937, the enterprising owner of an independent press service called Cooperation made Winston Churchill an irresistible offer. He would place Churchill's articles on current world events in major newspapers across Europe - and for significantly more money than Churchill was making through his present agent. So began a profitable business relationship that grew over time into an enduring personal friendship. This book chronicles that relationship through the entire body of correspondence between Winston Churchill and Emery Reves. It preserves a compelling record of how each man used the other's talents to forward a cause that passionately engaged them both - the spread of democratic ideals in a post-totalitarian world.

Much better looking and cheaper in the long run.
This is reason #386 why rich people should always pay a professional for their extra marital affairs instead of messing with crazy 20 something year old office chick. Is it foolproof? No but, it is a lot safer in terms of getting caught.
*Edit* TheSaint and I apparently agree (beat me to it)
Mercedes Benz dealers excepted...
Steve Phillips has a small weiner
Maybe she has a big vagina?
You've all pretty much covered the bases.
Rich people should be good at "hiring out", but seem to forget the lesson when it comes to driving intoxicated and screwing.
"ESPN intern Brooke Hundley poses for photos in a undentified Stadium."
Oh, yea. Like no one's ever seen that place before.
He could've picked a girl that didn't look like Jeff Saturday though.

How do you do it??? I also had a stomach flu for about 3 days (wed-Fri). Anyway I did it but was darn hard! My time was 35.40.. SLOW!
Happy St. Patrick's Day!
..Totally not similiar to the treadmill. It is amazing that you ran with the stomach flu...take pride in your accomplishment, rest and hydrate.
I ran a 10K today and it also was a tough route. I have never reached the point of describing any race as easy, although some of the courses are less painful than others!
Congrats and hope you are feeling better soon.
Congrats! You should get an award just for running with the stomach flu. I went out with over 5000 friends and had a blast!

Online international money transfer service Xoom is filing for a $50M IPO under the ticker XOOM. Xoom, which competes most directly with Western Union (WU) and Moneygram (MGI), is stocked with ex-PayPal execs and saw $3.25B worth of gross sending volume in 2012 (up over 3x Y/Y). It generated revenue of $57.8M (+68% Y/Y) over the first 9 months of 2012, and a net loss of $4.4M. Xoom's filing comes at a time when PayPal and Moneygram are drawing closer. (S-1)

Associated Press
Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly on Saturday dismissed talk that he needs to do a better job of recruiting players who are better students to avoid the academic problems that have plagued the football program for the past 15 months.
"I think we've brought in the right young men," he said. "I think we have to continue to do a better job educating them. We have to do a better job of providing the resources."
The news conference was the first time Kelly talked to the media since the university announced a day earlier that starting cornerback KeiVarae Russell, leading returning receiver DaVaris Daniels, defensive end Ishaq Williams and backup linebacker Kendall Moore were being withheld from practices and games until the university completes an investigation into whether papers and homework they turned in were completed by others.
Kelly said none one involved in the investigation has asked to talk to him or his staff. He cautioned against assuming the players are guilty, saying the investigation is ongoing.
Kelly said it's his job as head coach to create an environment where players know they can't cut corners.
"If you let your players do whatever they want and they feel like they're not accountable, then I don't think you should be a head coach," he said. "I think if you create an environment and you lay out the expectations of your program and they're not met, then they should be held accountable."
"Look, this is never a one-sided issue. We have to internally look at providing our student-athletes all of the resources necessary that, if in fact if they took shortcuts, that they don't. We have to look hard at that," he said.
Players know the high standards of Notre Dame, Kelly said, adding that his rules of conduct for players are posted in the locker room: "Treat women with respect, don't cheat, don't lie and don't steal."
Kelly said he doesn't have any more information about the investigation than what the university announced at the news conference Friday, saying as a coach he will be "on the outside looking in." He said his reaction to the news was "shock and disappointment."
But Kelly said he's proud that Notre Dame has high standards, saying it's one of the reason he accepted the job.
"We don't look the other way," he said.
The players were informed Friday about the investigation and Kelly said he hasn't talked with them since.
The Irish, who open the season against Rice on Aug. 30, have faced other academic problems. Starting quarterback Everett Golson missed last season because of academic impropriety and Daniels sat out the spring semester. Kelly described them as "good kids who made bad decisions."
If the players aren't allowed to return this season as a result of the investigation, it will be difficult to overcome, Kelly said.
"As players, you don't replace KeiVarae Russell. He's one of the best corners we've had here in some time. But we'll find a way," he said. "You don't replace a guy like that."
Replacing Daniels also will be a challenge, but Kelly said the Irish have depth at receiver.
"We're going to have to count on other players to step up and do the job for us," he said.
Kelly said he's not worried about Notre Dame possibly having to vacate some past victories, including possibly from the 2012 season when the Irish went 12-1 and their lone loss was to Alabama in the national title game.
Although this may very well happen at hundred of school doesn't make it right. Everyone thinks Notre Dame should be the school that sets the standard. My departed friend once told me "College kids are just older high school kids". One thing that separates Notre Dame from most is they are forthright and open in this investigation. Losing players when you're already thin hurts. If a recruit buys someone else's garbage then we let them walk. The ones that want to play at ND will remain.

Simple and great. Other minify is bad when compared with this!
It's easy to use, even for complex websites. So I love it.
Thank you for a easy set up plugin. Been trying to minify and combine using W3 Total Cache for a while and gave up with its minify function. I am not saying W3 Total Cache is a bad plugin, it is not. This plugin just makes the job far easier for minifying & combining.
There is still work to do to identity those styles & scripts that need excluding. I don't know if this can be made easier by some how allowing the plugin to list the styles & scripts, and then checking those styles & scripts to not include after you've identified the excluders.
I've been trying to use the minify feature of the W3 Total Cache plugin and struggled with it for years. Had to manually exclude many scripts and styles (particularly those related to WooCommerce and GravityForms) to prevent the minification from breaking my website.
Then I tried AssetsMinify and it pretty much simply worked. I did have some small issues getting it to pick up all of my CSS and JS assets, but that was minor and the most important thing is that the resulting combined/minified .css and .js did work.
The code of the plugin is easy to understand and well-written.
Great work!
Uncheck Compress styles and delete your caches and reload the page if this isn't working for you. I'd suggest to the author this is unchecked by default upon install to prevent negative reviews!
Works great and does not fail the Remove query strings from static resources test on GTMetrix like Better WP minify!
sticks to the essential and works.
When I couldn't get W3 Total Cache minify to work (it broke by theme) I installed this one. At first, AssetsMinify did the same, so I deselected "minify style" and it worked perfectly! It makes it really easy for non-tech-savvy users (like myself) to make it work.
Does exactly what it says.
I would like a bit more customization, but that's far from an issue.
Sorry, but this plugin broke my theme.
Here's the error when trying to access any page on my website:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING or '(' in /home/XXXXXX/public_html/wp-content/plugins/assetsminify/AssetsMinifyInit.php on line 6
Probably the best minify plugin I've ever tried.

Heidi Klum's Hawaiian vacation took a terrifying turn over the weekend when her family went swimming at the beach.
Her oldest son Henry, 7, and two nannies got sucked into a riptide Sunday and were saved with the help of Klum and her boyfriend Martin Kristen.
"We got pulled into the ocean by a big wave. Of course, as a mother, I was very scared for my child and everyone else in the water," Klum, 39, says in a statement. "Henry is a strong swimmer and was able to swim back to land. We were able to get everyone out safely."
The harrowing experience was captured in a series of pictures posted by Entertainment Tonight.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- His career has spanned more than 20 years, encompassing some 650 events, with earnings of more than $18 million.
For those reasons, the snooze button must have gotten a workout from Billy Mayfair at 3 a.m. Monday, if he didn't consider beating the alarm into submission.
Mayfair, 43, didn't really need a 6 a.m. flight out of New Orleans so he could change planes in Atlanta and arrive in Charlotte at noon -- not even knowing whether his golf bag would make it -- so he could hustle off to a four-spot qualifier just on the odd chance he might make the field for this week's Quail Hollow Championship.
Did he?
"I told him we're going," his wife, Tammy, joked Saturday after her husband finished with the 54-hole lead, 2 shots ahead of Phil Mickelson and Davis Love III.
Yes, the decision sure looks good now. Mayfair endured the hassle, landing in Charlotte just 45 minutes before his tee time at Country Club of Carolina.
Tammy got the rental car, Mayfair's luggage -- including golf bag -- came off first and off they dashed to the course, which, fortunately, was just a few minutes away.
"He wouldn't let me drive because he feared I would get the ticket," she said.
With a brief warm-up, Mayfair went out and shot 65 to lead the qualifier, which only got him the chance to play in the $6.5 million tournament.
If Mayfair wins Sunday, he'll become the first Monday qualifier to win on the PGA Tour since Fred Wadsworth at the Southern Open in 1986.
That shows how rare the feat is and how unlikely this run is by Mayfair. Of course he's now glad he came and qualified, even though it was far from easy to put himself through the ordeal.
"It was, especially when I missed my flight Sunday night," Mayfair said. "My wife Tammy probably spurred me on more than anything. She said, 'You're playing well; let's go see what happens.' It was probably her coaxing that got me up that morning and got me going."
Mayfair, a cancer survivor, is in his current position because he finished 157th on the 2009 PGA Tour money list. Since he ended up outside the top 150, his only status is as a past champion, meaning he would get in just a few events without sponsor exemptions.
Without a spot in the field, without a sponsor exemption, there is no choice left but to try to qualify if you want to play.
"Obviously it's not fun not being exempt, 21 years being fully exempt, and this is my first year I haven't been, and it's been a tough road so far," he said. "There are a lot of players out here who aren't exempt, too, and the tournament directors have some very tough decisions to make. Obviously if I can get myself in a good position and win, I don't have to worry about that for a while."
The first time he tried a Monday qualifying earlier this year was at the Sony Open in Hawaii, where he failed to make the field. Before that? Mayfair said he hadn't had to go the Monday route since 1989 at a tournament in Tucson.
Mayfair has five victories in his PGA Tour career, the last coming in 1998 at the Buick Open. He also won earlier that year at the Los Angeles Open, defeating Tiger Woods in a playoff -- Woods' only playoff defeat on the PGA Tour.
In 1995, Mayfair won the Tour Championship and finished second to Greg Norman on the money list.
But those days are long ago, and chances at victory have been fleeting.
At last week's Zurich Classic of New Orleans, Mayfair had to play 28 holes Saturday and 27 on Sunday because of weather delays that ultimately caused him to miss his flight Sunday night.
And that's when thoughts of heading home to Arizona became very prominent in his mind.
"I told him if it was meant to be, then it would all fall into place, and so far it has," Tammy Mayfair said.
Of course, the hard work was just beginning. Mayfair shot rounds of 68-68 to take the 36-hole lead and was paired with Angel Cabrera in the last twosome Saturday.
With course conditions more difficult, Mayfair made three birdies and two bogeys and built the 2-shot lead over Mickelson and Love, with a 3-shot advantage over J.J. Henry, Dustin Johnson and Cabrera.
"The nerves are there. I won't lie to you," Mayfair said. "If you're not nervous, you're not alive, not breathing. I feel real confident. Today was a big day for me to get over that hurdle, to stay there, to keep the lead and keep that confidence. I'm really looking forward to tomorrow."
As well as sleeping in Monday.

The petitioner contacted the respondent. I (respondent) want to know if the order can be modified or nulled.
Car / Auto Accident Lawyer
Was the order of protection issued by a Family Court judge or a Criminal Court judge? The person who violated the order can be arrested and charged with Criminal Contempt, a Class A misdemeanor. In a criminal case, the person who is protected by the order can ask the assistant district attorney to rescind it, however, most judges in the domestic violence courtrooms throughout the city are reluctant to do so while a case is pending.
Divorce / Separation Lawyer
Without more information it's impossible to be certain. However, to modify or cancel an order usually requires the consent of both parties.

Enabling Dynamic Content
Updated: August 22, 2005
Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 with SP1
The default installation of IIS 6.0 protects your system from malicious users and attackers by delivering IIS in a locked mode, in which IIS can only serve static HTTP content. After a default installation, the request handlers that process dynamic content are disabled, which means that features like ASP, ASP.NET, SSI, WebDAV publishing, and FrontPage Server Extensions do not work.
You can configure the request handlers (ISAPI extensions or Common Gateway Interface [CGI] programs), known as Web service extensions, by using either the Web Service Extensions node in IIS Manager or the command-line script Iisext.vbs, which is located in systemroot\System32.
Iisext.vbs can be used to perform the same operations that are available in IIS Manager. You can use either tool to administer dynamic content, performing the following tasks:
Allow or prohibit Web service extensions on the local computer.
Add new Web service extensions.
Allow all the Web service extensions that an application requires.
Prohibit the running of all Web service extensions on the local computer.
For more information about using IIS Manager to administer dynamic content, including instructions for adding new Web service extensions, allowing an application to call a Web service extension, or disabling all Web service extensions, see Enabling and Disabling Dynamic Content in IIS 6.0.
To enable a Web service extension from the command line, use the Iisext.vbs command-line script. Before enabling a Web service extension or application type, obtain a list of all the defined Web service extensions on the computer. (To view a list in IIS Manager, expand the Web Service Extensions node.)
Important You must be a member of the Administrators group on the local computer to run scripts and executables. As a security best practice, log on to your computer by using an account that is not in the Administrators group, and then use the runas command to run your script or executable as an administrator. At a command prompt, type runas /Profile /user:MyComputer\Administrator cmd to open a command window with administrator rights and then type cscript.exe ScriptName (include the script's full path and any known parameters).
To view a list of a Web service extensions on the local computer by using Iisext.vbs
In the Run dialog box, type cmd, and then click OK.
At the command prompt, type:
cscript %SystemRoot%\system32\iisext.vbs /listapp
This command displays a list of all Web service extensions that are located on the local computer. For example, using the /listapp parameter might return the following:
Connecting to server ...Done. Active Server Pages Internet Data Connector Server Side Includes WebDAV FrontPage Server Extensions ASP.NET v1.1.4322
If you want to enable ASP pages, type the command-line syntax that is shown in the following procedure. If you want to enable another type of application, replace Active Server Pages with the name of that application. If the application name contains spaces, be sure to enclose the name with quotation marks.
To enable ASP pages (or other Web service extension)
At the command prompt, type:
cscript %systemroot%\system32\iisext.vbs /EnApp "Active Server Pages"
For more information about using the Iisext.vbs command-line script to administer dynamic content, such as enabling, disabling, or listing Web service extensions and their files, see Managing Applications and Web Service Extensions Using Scripts.

This paper provides a statistical framework for estimating higher-order characteristics of the response time distribution, such as the scale (variability) and shape. Consideration of these higher order characteristics often provides for more rigorous theory development in cognitive and perceptual psychology (e.g., Luce, 1986). RT distribution for a single participant depends on certain participant characteristics, which in turn can be thought of as arising from a distribution of latent variables. The present work focuses on the three-parameter Weibull distribution, with parameters for shape, scale, and shift (initial value). Bayesian estimation in a hierarchical framework is conceptually straightforward. Parameter estimates, both for participant quantities and population parameters, are obtained through Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods. The methods are illustrated with an application to response time data in an absolute identification task. The behavior of the Bayes estimates are compared to maximum likelihood (ML) estimates through Monte Carlo simulations. For small sample size, there is an occasional tendency for the ML estimates to be unreasonably extreme. In contrast, by borrowing strength across participants, Bayes estimation "shrinks" extreme estimates. The results are that the Bayes estimators are more accurate than the corresponding ML estimators.

aneurysms that occur in the part of the aorta that passes through the abdomen. They may occur at any age, but are most common in men between 50 and 80 years of age. Many people with an AAA have no symptoms, but some people have a pulsing sensation in the abdomen and/or pain in the back.[1] If the aneurysm ruptures, it may cause deep, severe pain; nausea; vomiting; fast heart rate; clammy skin; and/or shock.[1][2] About 20% of AAAs eventually rupture and are often fatal.[1] The condition has multiple genetic and environmental risk factors, and may sometimes occur as part of an inherited syndrome. When more than one family member is affected, it may be considered "familial abdominal aortic aneurysm."[3] Treatment depends on the size of the aneurysm and may include blood pressure medications, or surgery to repair the aneurysm.[1]Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) are

I don't know what Fredrik would use these receiver fun's, but I think your proposal lacks something that his can do. With his proposal I could (just for example) write a gen_server variant that does not have to accept each message as they arrive, but can effectively do selective receive. For example, if the handle_call function in the callback module returns {reply, Reply, NewState, MessageSpec} then the behavior module could receive only the "interesting" messages and leave everything else on the message queue, while it could, --- at the same time --- receive system messages, etc. as well. So the point is that if matchspecs are allowed in receives, then they can be combined with "normal" patterns and with other matchspecs. Georgy

I am going to install 64bit Windows 7 on my laptop that had 32bit Windows Vista on it. I checked and it seems like the processor
Intel Pentium T3400 is actually 64bit, so everything should be OK.
Is there any possibility that it will not work? Could the laptop be somehow locked to Windows Vista only, via hardware etc?
How about installing (older OS) Windows XP ? Could some of the laptop's hardware features stop from working?
What should I take into account when installing the OS? Does laptops need some special versions of the OS's to be installed? Or does "one size fit all" here?

So I click upgrade. IF there is so much that needs to be done FIRST, why make it so easy to click that button without any way of back tracking or having a pop-up making sure we know what is really involved first. This is my first experience building a website, and I've spent every spare min I've had over the last 3-4 months building it just to have it completely rendered useless by one click of the mouse button. I'm used to every other upgrade whether it's windows, firefox, chrome, etc,... clicking the upgrade button and being done with it.

If anyone cares to visit the url at the beginning of my rant here and would like to help me through this, please do. I have no idea what I'm doing (obviously) so telling me something in programming jargon will just waste both of our time.

Lacrosse Magazine, owned and published by US Lacrosse, the national governing body of men's and women's lacrosse, is circulated to more than 430,000 members of the organization as one of the benefits of membership. Join Today!
BALTIMORE, Feb. 16, 2012 - US Lacrosse, the national governing body of the sport, announces the addition of the newly-created Arkansas chapter to its network of regional chapters. The new chapter will provide programs, services and leadership to the lacrosse community in the states of Arkansas and Oklahoma, as well as Southern Missouri. The chapter is based in Bentonville, Arkansas, with an executive board that has representation from each of the regions within its geographic footprint.
"We've partnered together to bring greater exposure to the game," said Dacia Boehmler, president of the chapter. "We've bought into the idea of being one team for the love of the sport."
Club leaders in Northwest Arkansas, Little Rock and Edmond, Oklahoma spearheaded the move to create the newest USL chapter in hopes that greater resources would assist each of them in tackling some of the same challenges.
"The more we can collaborate with others, the faster we're going to grow," said Boehmler. "We have an amazing opportunity to get people involved in the sport."
"We are excited to see the rapid growth and development of lacrosse in the Deep South region," said Lindsay Comodore, US Lacrosse's chapter relations manager. "US Lacrosse is committed to providing resources and assistance to our very dedicated volunteers in the newly established Arkansas Chapter."
The chapter's provisional year is from January 1, 2012 until January 1, 2013, after which, it will assume full chapter status. During its provisional year, the Arkansas Chapter will look to identify lacrosse players, coaches and officials that have moved to within the chapter's region, but don't know that the sport is available. A few of the chapter's goals include: hosting US Lacrosse Coaching Education Program clinics, officials' and umpires' education clinics and integrating lacrosse into the physical education school curriculums.
With the addition of the Arkansas chapter, US Lacrosse has 64 regional chapters serving 43 states and the District of Columbia. Each chapter exists to provide US Lacrosse programs and services to its local members and non-members and an opportunity to connect with other lacrosse enthusiasts in the area.

Mrs. Eliaser
Mrs. Eliaser has been teaching at CJHS since 2003. She was born and raised on the North Shore, where she attended the Skokie Solomon Schechter and New Trier High School. She received her B.A. in Integrated Science (a.k.a. "Physics for Indecisive People") at Northwestern University and did her masters in teaching at Stanford.
"I love physics. I love that it makes sense, that it uses math to explain the universe, that it doesn't explode or stink or need formaldehyde. I love how a few general rules can explain everything around us in such amazing detail. I'm a particle physicist by training; in college I worked on the D0 experiment at FermiLab. It was an amazing experience, but I knew then that I could never spend my days working with computers instead of with people. I wanted to share, to mentor, to inspire, to argue, to communicate. I've never looked back."
Mrs. Eliaser enjoys studying Torah in her ever-elusive spare time, as well as cooking, listening to audiobooks, telling and writing stories. Most of all, she enjoys playing with her little girls, who experiment with baby physics, listen politely to her long lectures and wonder if there will be a quiz.

Egg-Free, Dairy-Free, Soy-Free Meatloaf
Total Time
Prep 10 mins
Cook 1 hr 30 mins
This recipe is egg-, dairy-, and soy-free but tastes similar to meatloaf recipes that use onion soup mix. Chili powder and mustard add the tiniest bit of pep, without losing that classic meatloaf flavor. I use Better Than Bouillon Organic Beef Base as my beef bouillon paste and make my own bread crumbs from homemade bread to keep this recipe safe for my husband's allergies.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 cups breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons onion flakes
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1⁄2 teaspoon celery salt
- 2 teaspoons beef bouillon paste
- 1 cup ketchup
- 1 teaspoon spicy brown mustard
- 2 lbs ground beef
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Combine the bread crumbs, onion flakes, onion powder, garlic powder, chili powder, and celery salt in a large mixing bowl.
- Add beef base, ketchup, and mustard. Mix well.
- Add ground beef and mix well.
- Pat mixture into a glass loaf pan.
- Bake at 350 for 90 minutes.
- Allow to sit for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

This is a great, allergy-friendly meatloaf for the family! I couldn't locate bouillon paste, so I used two bouillon cubes instead and mixed it in with the ketchup mixture. The whole family loved it and the flavor was amazing!!

I'm having a little problem decorating a static method in Python. I think the following code best represents my problem:
def decorator(func):
print callable(func)
return func
class Foo():
def bar():
# outputs False
print callable(Foo.bar)
# outputs True
This seems to be a bug. I imagine it arises because when the method
Foo.bar is passed to the decorator, it is a function, not a method. That is the only reason I can see for it not being callable, for if we decorate a standard function, it is not callable, as shown below.
def function():
print callable(function)
# outputs False
So is this a true bug in implementation of the staticmethod decorator, and/or are there any simple workarounds? I did think of writing a decorator to asign a
__call__ attribute, but I don't know how
callable is implemented, so I can't gauge the sucess of such a method.

FLORENCE, Ala. — With just over four pounds separating the top 12 anglers in the Alabama Charge, it seemed like every angler had a legitimate shot at victory going into the final competition day on Pickwick Lake.
Now it's even more wide open.
Bassmaster Elite Series tournament officials announced Sunday morning that the final day of fishing will be cut short by about four hours. Tournament director Trip Weldon informed anglers of the decision just a few minutes before take-off, saying a forecast for severe weather led officials to shorten the last day of competition. Anglers took off at 6:10 a.m. Sunday, and they'll check in for the final weigh-in at Florence's McFarland Park at 11:15 a.m.
Alabama Charge
Day Four is cut short due to weather
It's the first time in Elite Series history that a final day has been cut short.
The weather system that has spawned deadly tornadoes and flooding in Arkansas, Mississippi and Tennessee over the past 36 hours is moving east toward northwest Alabama. Forecasts call for chances of severe thunderstorms, including some capable of producing tornadoes, to increase throughout the morning hours. Doppler radar indicated a strong line of storms approaching Pickwick Lake this morning.
"The chances of severe weather go up after 11 a.m.," Weldon said, addressing the top 12 anglers on the dock just prior to take-off.
Anglers had mixed reactions to the decision, some lamenting it and others celebrating it. Tournament leader Skeet Reese, who has been locking through to Wilson Lake all week, had the strongest reaction.
"You've got to be kidding me," Reese said as Weldon made the announcement. "That's ridiculous, Trip."
Reese's response is understandable. He's the only angler in the top 12 who has been locking through to Wilson Lake, a process that requires about 45 minutes going into Wilson and another 45 minutes coming back into Pickwick. If Reese decides to go to Wilson this morning, he'll have just 3 1/2 hours to fish.
"I don't think you want my words right now," Reese said. "I have no friggin' idea what I'm doing yet. This pretty much screws my whole day up. It's not looking good right now. I don't know what I'm going to do. I'll make the decision in the next 20 or 30 minutes."
Most of the anglers chasing Reese from farther down the leaderboard viewed the abbreviated fishing day in a more positive light.
"It's going to make it interesting," seventh-place Dean Rojas said, smiling widely as he prepared to pull away from the boat dock. "Real interesting."
After struggling to catch just more than 10 pounds and landing in 83rd place on Day One, Rojas stormed back into contention with a nearly 19-pound bag on Thursday. Then he moved within striking distance with a 20-13 bag on Saturday, the heaviest limit of the tournament. He trails Reese by 2 pounds, 6 ounces.
"It's absolutely great from where I'm sitting," said Ohio pro Bill Lowen. "I'm catching a lot of 3-pounders, so I like it. And it shook a couple of guys up already, and that's always a good thing."
Arkansas pro Kevin Short, who led the tournament's first two days before slipping to a third-place tie with Alabama pro Aaron Martens on Saturday, wasn't upset by the decision.
"I'm diggin' it," he said. "I think I can catch them quicker than anyone."
It took Short a few hours to get the bite going Saturday, but he said he finally figured out an area that could be productive today.
"I realized after a while that the fish seem to be wadded up on one little stretch of trees," Short said. "I'm going straight there this morning. I don't think you're going to see any 20-pound sacks brought in today. If you can catch 13 or 14 pounds by 11 a.m. and you're already in the top five, that's going to be your winner."
Some competitors were indifferent about the short day.
"It could be a blessing," said Cliff Pace, who trails Reese by two ounces. "I'm not going to worry about it because it's out of my control. All you can do is go out and give it all you got and see what happens."
Mike Iaconelli, who has been spending 1 1/2 hours running from spot to spot each day, had mixed emotions about the decision.
"It's uncontrollable," he said. "But I don't like it. Honestly, I don't think that's enough time for me to make up the ground I need to make up. But hey, I'm here."
While anglers like Reese and Iaconelli figure to be adversely affected by the decision because of the time they're spending reaching their fishing holes, the short day will also have an impact on anglers like Pace, Martens, Steve Kennedy and Edwin Evers, who are all sharing a community hole near the Wilson Lock and Dam.
"I've been trying to catch big fish all week, but now I'm looking at just trying to catch some fish and not worry as much about finding the big ones," said Kennedy, who trails Reese by 1 pound, 5 ounces.
Kennedy was busy cutting off big baits and downsizing to smaller offerings in the last few minutes before take-off.
"[The short day] is not going to change where I go, but it's going to change the way I'm fishing," Kennedy said. "I may not be able to fish slow enough to catch a big one."
Martens said the area has been receiving a lot of pressure from local anglers, noting a night tournament was held on Pickwick last night.
"It took a while to get things going [Saturday]," Martens said. "There are a lot of things working against us up there."
Another factor for the community-hole anglers could be fluctuating water levels, or a lack of them. The Tennessee Valley Authority has been pulling water through Pickwick each tournament day, but Kennedy said water movement didn't start until after noon Saturday.
"I've already put up some rods I know I'm not going to use," Kennedy said. "It's just a lot to consider."

I've burned out on the site, outlived my usefulness, gotten sick of all the serial downvotes that don't go unreversed, given up on the clueless reviewers, and been fed up with seeing so many valid flags (from myself and others) rejected with "declined - a moderator reviewed your flag, but found no evidence to support it." Enjoy the mess you've made.
Things I don't do on Stack Exchange anymore:
- Flag link only answers - despite repeated claims that we should flag link-only answers, moderators still reject them. Why bother?
- Go into the Suggested Edit review queue; you people approve anything; plagiarized text, spam, gibberish. There's no critical thinking involved, just mashing of the "Approve" button. I'm tired of being the sole "Reject" vote.
- Go into the Triage/Help & Improvement queue; no one has any idea how to review these.

I've been a gamer ever since my dad brought home a Commodore 64. Nowadays instead of playing Starquake, I'm really into IIDX and other Bemani games. I'm also a huge follower of the indie game scene, and fondly remembers when Cave Story was new, and other such hipster claims. I'm hoping to one day run an arcade while becoming a respcted writer for video game news, but will stick to aspiring to being a Level 1 judge in Magic: the Gathering for the meantime.

Has anyone heard this or have any info on this? Our counselor told me this. She is a child counselor, so I assume she knows what she's talking about and she has been amazing in her work with us. I have no reason to doubt her, but I can't find anything on the web about this or anyone else who might know about this...
What she told me is that since I was never married to my son's dad, my son's dad's now wife is not legally stepmom, but just dad's wife. The context of this came up when my son's dad was trying to get my son out for a visit with him out of the county. My son hasn't seen his dad in five years. He cannot leave where he is at, but his wife could have. His idea was that his wife accompany my son if I couldn't do it to fly him out of the country so my son could see his dad. Our counselor advised me against this idea saying if anything were to happen during travel, dad's wife would have no legal right to asist my son. Of course, this trip never happened. If I can't take him,he won't be going.
Now I am in the stepmom position. My DH has three kids. Two from his ex-wife and one from baby mamma he was never married to. So now the question, am I legally stepmom or just dad's wife to this little one from DH's ex? I know it makes no difference in how I treat my three step-kids. Just wondering if any of you have heard anything of this sort? I may need to go back to our counselor to have her clarify for me again what she meant??
Thanks, guys!!
