Lawyer and forger of documents
J. Jenks is a full-time lawyer and part-time purveyor of illegal documents in his fifties. He has worked with Jasper Hale since the late 1980s.
Early life
J. Jenks was born sometime in the 1950s, in Seattle, Washington. He is known in certain circles as being one of the best document forgers available. He has worked with Jasper Hale since the late 1980s; his old partner and mentor knew Jasper for fifteen years before him.
He has Max run the downtown office as a contact point for criminals who need legal documents, and conducts legitimate business as "Jason Jenks", an attorney with a fancy office in a skyscraper in Seattle, and as Jason Scott, an attorney with a modest practice in the suburbs.
J is aware that the Cullen family are supernatural, having noticed that Jasper never ages, but does not know that they are vampires. Because he is paid well, and because Jasper has manipulated his emotions to ensure his fear of the Cullens, J always gives him top priority and does not talk about his family to others.
Breaking Dawn
In Breaking Dawn, Alice left J's downtown address to Bella, which led her to Max, Jason's agent, who in turn sends her to him. Initially he assumed Bella was Jasper's wife, leading Bella to think that Alice gave her the address and that Jenks had no idea what Alice looked like.
Later on, during the second meeting with Bella, he is told that she is the wife of Jasper's brother, and he wishes her and the rest of the Cullens' happiness and health. Bella employs him to forge birth certificates, passports, and a driver's license for Jacob and Renesmee. Over the course of their relationship, he becomes more relaxed with Bella than he is with Jasper. An honorable man, he is under the belief that she intends to use them to kidnap Renesmee from her father, and despite his fear of the Cullen's retribution, he initially expresses reservations about giving her the requested documents. Bella assures him that this is not the case. She afterwards decides to take over all relations with him in order to spare him any further stress.
In Breaking Dawn - Part 2, Jasper visits J to give him instructions to forge legal documents for Renesmee and Jacob, and by the time Bella contacts him, he has already finished with the orders. He delivers the documents to Bella at a public restaurant.
Physical description
J is described as short and balding, paunchy, probably at least fifty five, he is also trembling, blanched to a sickly paste color, with sweat beading on his forehead. He also wears expensive clothing. In the movie, he is African American, with black hair, dark skin and mustache, and slightly overweight.
He appears to be a very nervous man, mostly due to his fear of Jasper, provided by his power to control his emotions, and by extension, any other member of the Cullen family. The bad reputation of his forging activities notwithstanding, he is an old man with a kind heart, and is very careful with whom he deals with.
His movie counterpart is calmer, but he still holds utmost respect for the Cullens and their business with him.
Film portrayal
J. Jenks is portrayed by Wendell Pierce in Breaking Dawn - Part 2.
In Eclipse, one of the victims of the Seattle army is Omar Jenks; it is unknown if he was related to J.

Hardware and Software Asset Intelligence
Microsoft Systems Management Server (SMS) 2003 Service Pack 3 (SP3) brings organizations full lifecycle support for Microsoft's latest platform including software distribution, update services and inventory are available to the Vista client.
Adding optional capabilities to enhance the software and hardware inventory functionalities provided in SMS 2003, SP3 provides information to help organizations to make better business decisions about their IT assets. Through a new library of over 400,000 software titles, SMS 2003 SP3 provides an option to augment existing SMS inventory capabilities with deeper asset intelligence. SMS SP3 provides rich reporting about installed applications and hardware enabling better license reporting, software consolidation and upgrade planning.
In addition, SMS SP3 introduces X64 architecture support for your high performance platforms. Read the datasheet for more information.
Asset Intelligence
License Reporting: New reports enable comparison of Microsoft applications installed with licenses purchased as well as how those titles were obtained (for example: volume licensing, retail, or OEM) for better optimization of software use across the organization and fewer unutilized applications.
Software Consolidation: View applications by category to better see how many different applications with similar functions and versions are deployed in the organization and make consolidations. The result is accelerated application standardization, a more streamlined support structure, and the ability to maximize volume discounts from software vendors.
Upgrade Planning: Identify core and non-core applications in order to understand what applications require migration to the new environment. Software consolidation aids upgrade planning by reducing the number of applications that need compatibility testing. Identify hardware assets that need upgrading based on comparisons to published operating system hardware requirements. The result is more efficient planning and streamlined execution for upgrading users to Microsoft Windows XP and Windows Vista.

Creator: If I understand you correctly you could just go into the Retopo room and load your object again from the Retopo menu. It should have the UVs intact I think. Then just pick "Merge to Scene (Microverts)" from that same menu. and it should send you to the Paint room with your displacement applied.
Sorry guys my English skills are poor so maybe i'll try from the beginning:
I guess, it's a hi poly model, it's a subdivided low poly after retopo and UVs.
So, we have UVs, a cage, a hi res model. Right? Do as Phil says.
Wondering though. It smells zbrush, why don't you directly bake displacements there? ZB is very good on this.
(I want to)
1) Import model with UV (surface mode).
2) Subdivide few times (with hope that my UV are preserved).
3) Sculpt something.
4) Then bake displacement map on my preserved UV, but without need of importing another mesh to retopo room.
So my question was if it is possible, to work only on my imported mesh/one mesh.
I'm familiar with Voxel workflow. I know I can import mesh => voxelize => sculpt => and then go to retopo room and import my mesh with UV and bake displacement to it. That's OK i'm working like that, but my friend asked me if it is possible to keep with one model during all process.
Maybe there is some way to put surface mesh from voxel room as retopo mesh? I'm curious

Gwendolyn Audrey Foster has a new article in the journal Film International, entitled "Capitalism Eats Itself: Gluttony and Coprophagia from Hoarders to La Grande Bouffe," which examines a number of television programs and films that deal with excess consumption and wastage, seemingly a more and more popular topic in contemporary throwaway culture. Here are the opening paragraphs:
"Consumption. Excess. Gluttony. Hoarding. Waste. Massive debt. The pathologies of capitalism are our greatest export. Endless examples of unproductive expenditure only add to our credibility as gluttons with little or no use-value. Americans consume recklessly in order to convince ourselves that we are not alienated, and that late-stage capitalism will provide for us, and fulfill our emotional needs. TV and media reflect and take part in insatiable hoarding, gluttonous consumption, and excessive production and dissemination of images that reify the very same pathologies and deadly sins they purport to expose – in a cyclical loop that I call 'capitalism eating itself.'
The US has a long history of excessive gluttony and hoarding, starting with people, as one prime example. Human beings, slaves were hoarded and gluttonously exchanged for their value in capital and manufacture of products. Our historical pathology of gluttony is easily demonstrated by our origins; we are a stolen nation; a huge gobbled up land mass birthed from colonial theft, gluttony, and hoarding. America's bloody legacy of greed, theft, and violence is one we obsessively and compulsively deny. By replacing our primal beginnings with a narrative of so-called patriotic struggle for freedom, we deny, (like hoarders deny their compulsions), our long complex history of thievery of capital, bodies, countries, vast amounts of land, commodities and wealth."

May 5, 2016
NEW YORK (AP) -- Valerie Harper, who played Rhoda Morgenstern on television's "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" and its spinoff, "Rhoda," has been diagnosed with terminal brain cancer.
People magazine reports on its website Wednesday that the 73-year-old actress received the news on Jan. 15. The report says she has as little as three months to live.
Harper tells the magazine: "I don't think of dying. I think of being here now."
Harper's character, Rhoda, was one of television's most beloved sidekicks during the 1970s.
The Associated Press was trying to reach a representative for Harper.

I saw this movie when it was first released with my girlfriend (later, my wife). I would love to see it again but it seems to have disappeared. Not only can't I find a copy of this movie, I can't find anyone else who has seen it. If I did not have the sound track, I would start questioning if I saw it or not. It was not a "great" movie but much better than many of the Black subject movies made at that time. I also saw the "Informer" from which this was taken but I prefer "Up Tight". I hope someone re-releases this movie. A generation has passed without anyone knowing that several "large", named stars acted in this largely unknown movie.

Some important things to remember to make the Speed Scrap go a bit smoother:
- The instructions are all pretty self-explanatory, but remember that you can interpret them creatively. I may be an Army wife, but I'm no drill sergeant! Do the best you can on the instructions, but don't freak out over them. Be creative! You won't be disqualified!!
- You can use a template if you want.
- goDigitalScrapbooking products are NOT required, but of course, we love it when you use them!!
- I will re-cap all the instructions again each time I post a new instruction.
- For each instruction there must be a different element. You may not use the same element to fulfill requirements for 2 different instructions.
Please don't stress! Speed scraps are fun. Just take the instructions to mean what YOU think they mean and have fun!!!
PLEASE, PLEASE REMEMBER - post back here when you are done so I will know you are playing along!!

The 64th Map of the Week brings us to the land of Slovania, a corner of the fallen Æsir Empire that is not ruled by forces of evil but that is not necessarily good aligned either. Slovania was settled by a high shamann from Windland in the south who was named Aleksandra. Her witch faith was dominant in the formative years but since has lost much of its influence.
Today, Slovania is a weak kingdom with four strong counties and a march. The king has his seat in Newhouse. The four counts and the margrave combined have considerably more power than the king alone. However, they work against one another rather than together. Their lands are the Royal, River, Grainland and Southland Counties and the Border March.
Slovania is a relatively corrupt land between the borders of good and evil. However, evil agents serving the dark draugs in the ruins of the Æsir Empire to the north are beginning to establish secret bases in parts of the kingdom.
The map above is reduced in size. You can get the full-sized map in two versions:
1. The Fractal Mapper (TM) 8 map in FMP format, fully editable, from our Jörðgarð web page (6 MB).
2. As a JPG flat map of 3000 x 1850 Pixels (2.3 MB), available above.

Mr. SGCC is a caveman. He loves meat. And, he doesn't care for sweets. I know! Crazy, right? There are a few exceptions to this, though. He does enjoy a good cheesecake now and then. He's also been known to sneak bites of Key lime pie right out of the pan from time to time. So, these Key Lime Cheesecake Minis are the perfect Labor Day dessert for him. Actually, they're a perfect dessert for anyone who loves creamy, dreamy cheesecake with a bright , fresh pop of citrus.
Key limes are small, round citrus fruits with a sharp, tart flavor – more so than regular Persian limes. Commercially picked Key limes are green, but when allowed to ripen on the tree, the fruit has more of a yellowish skin. Native to Southeast Asia, Key limes made their way to North America via the Caribbean by early Spanish settlers to Florida. Key lime cultivation flourished in South Florida, particularly in the Keys, until the early 20th century, when most of the groves were destroyed by the great hurricane of 1926. They're still widely associated with Florida, even though they're not grown here commercially anymore.
Most of the Key limes I find at the supermarket are from Mexico, and they are often sickly and sad looking little things. If you're lucky enough to have a tree in your own backyard, you're all set. If not, but you have any family/friends/neighbors with one, start schmoozing, because I promise you're gonna want to make these dreamcakes …er…cheesecakes. read more >>

Stinkbugs in the Chimney!
Stop the Presses! Stop the … What? We got no presses? Oops. My bad, never mind…
Anyway, Brian in Warrenton has an important stinkbug alert. He writes: "When the weather started getting cooler, we decided to get our woodstove ready. Most woodstove owners know to clean their chimneys every season for safety, but now we have a new reason: Stinkbugs! We discovered that hundreds had sought refuge in the woodstove chimney. Thankfully, my brother decided to clean it out before starting the first fire of the season.
I don't even want to imagine what burning stinkbugs might
smell like. If your station is required to do Public
Service Announcements, I think this warning qualifies!"
Thank you for the warning, good work Brian! And remember kids—only YOU can prevent stinkbug fires!
There's Still Time to Brighten the Yard with
Chris in Northwest D.C. emailed this past week to say:
"Today is November 3rd and I want to clean up the yard and plant some flowers for a cookout we're having on Sunday. Is it too late to plant now? And if it isn't too late, do you have any suggestions other than pansies and mums? Or are those our best choices?"
Well, there's still a bit of planting time left, Chris—
especially for folks like yourself in the heat sink of the
city, where it takes much longer for the soil to freeze
hard for the winter. And my advice is that you go nuts
with pansies. They're fabulously colorful flowers, they'll
last until next July, and you can eat the blooms on top of
Mums? Mums are a bore. Really. They're just
so…so…well, so 'mummy'!
The Best Till is No Till!
Karen in Annapolis writes: " I just cleaned the weeds and
dead plants out of my garden in preparation for the
winter. Should I now till it—to loosen up tiny weeds and
small bits of debris for natural composting?"
Absolutely not, Karen. You should never till in the Fall—
and you should try and avoid it at other times of the year
as well.
Tilling releases soil nutrients, promotes weeds by
uncovering and then re-burying dormant seeds, and causes
soil erosion by removing all those little plants that are
keeping your dirt in place. Yes, tilling is generally
unavoidable when gardens are first established, because
you have to break up all that compacted soil. But after
that, it's much better not to 'till and till again'.
That's one of the huge benefits of correctly built raised
beds; you never step on the soil after that first tilling,
so it stays nice and light and loose.
To Mulch? Or Not to Mulch? That is….
Karen in Annapolis, who cleaned the weeds and dead plants
out of her garden in preparation for the winter,
continues: "Should I add a layer of mulch, Leaf Gro or
really good soil with manure in order to have the bed in
tip-top shape for the spring? Or should we wait to do this
in the spring?"
Well, it's never a good idea to leave garden soil bare and
subject to erosion over the winter, Karen. A layer of
mulch (which should always be applied after the soil
freezes hard for the season) would be ideal, but not wood,
bark or root mulch if the beds are close to a home or car.
(If you don't know why, search the phrase "artillery
The ideal winter mulch is a two-inch layer of well-
shredded fall leaves, which are abundant right now. (And
yes, they have to be shredded; whole leaves mat down like
a tarp and breed mold.)
Wait until Spring to apply any compost, like Leaf-Gro.
(Rake away the leaves, apply the compost and then re-use
the leaves as a weed-suppressing mulch on top of the
compost in between your plants.)
But I'd forget completely your "really good soil with
manure"—whatever the heck that is!
Tree Stump Options
Maggie in Port Republic, Maryland writes: "What would be
the best product to use to dissolve a spruce tree stump?"
Bad news, Maggie—University studies have shown
conclusively that none of those stump-dissolving products
actually accelerates the rate of decay. If you want to
replace a felled tree with another tree, you should always
have the stump pulled.
Otherwise, one popular option when a tree comes down is to
leave enough of the stump above ground to create a little
tabletop or rustic chair for outdoor seating.
Another is to cut the stump flush to the ground, box out
the area, fill the box with soil and grow flowers in your
new raised bed of convenience.
Or use the stump to grow gourmet, medicinal or just plain
decorative mushrooms! 'Fungi Perfecti', a
Washington state company, can furnish the materials you
need to turn tree
stumps into mushroom factories.

Seven large, free CC3 symbol libraries. As of 12/17/2006, these are the available CSUAC symbol libraries available for ownload.
Baseline 1: Creatures.
Baseline 2: Equipment.
Baseline 3: Vehicles
Baseline 4: Animals and Humanoids
Baseline 5: Vegetation
Baseline 6: Furniture
Baseline 7: Structures
Disclaimer: I do not work for this company, nor do I know anyone associated with the company.
I used to work with/for them ... Those archives are collected Dundjinni art pieces, converted to CC3 standards. There will probably be more in the future
Also visit Dundjinni, Four Ugly Monsters, the Nook, Battlegrounds Games, Fantasy Grounds, RPTools, RPGMapShare, Eruvian, Dragon Roots, RPG Virtual Tabletop, Troll Lord Games, GameMaster Syndicate and meny, many others
Here are little symbols I make in my lunch hour using the drawing tools in microsoft word. You can't save the image on its own in word, the trick is to copy and paste it into powerpoint. If you right click on the image you can then save it as wmf, png etc.
I'll make more symbols in future lunch hours. It's a good short study with something to show for it at the end of the process.

I created a symbol set for CC3 overland modern maps based on the carta-normal TrueType font available here:
These are varicolor symbols.
Enjoy, and let me know if they are useful.
I have created a varicolor symbol set for CC3 overland maps based on the TrueType dingbat symbols font that comes with the AutoREALM program:
Some very nice CC2/Cosmographer Star Trek symbols are available on this page:
Look under "Trek Symbols". There are also a couple of CC2 Star Trek ship and starbase deck plans on that page too.
I recently rediscovered these amazing symbols on my hard drive and decided to hunt down the original link to share here for any Star Trek gamers. I was a big fan of the Last Unicorn Games Star Trek RPG in the 1990s.
Check out this page
this is a great resource

Awesome Sigurd, I have been following dead links from various sites trying to find this pdf with these very symbols for ages, the USGS does not seem to think updating/forwarding dead pages is worth the effort I guess.
Thanks ALOT, SeerBlue

Revision as of 02:37, 9 May 2010
<translate> As someone charged with evaluating Joomla! for your requirements, you want to find out as quickly as possible whether Joomla! is a good fit with your project. </translate> How do you evaluate Joomla! to see if it will fit your requirements? There is no one answer to this question, but this section will provide some suggestions.
High-Level Evaluation
There are several resources that can help you to get a high-level view of the overall capabilities of Joomla!.
Web Sites Running Joomla!
One way to evaluate a CMS package is to look at web sites that run on it. It is impossible to say exactly how many web sites run Joomla!, but we do know that over 14 million copies of the software have been downloaded since March 2007.
Joomla! maintains The Joomla! Community Showcase that allows you to look at a number of sites running on Joomla!. Obviously, these represent a tiny fraction of the total number of Joomla!-run sites worldwide. A simple demonstration site is available for viewing. This site contains a lot of useful information about Joomla! features and the Joomla! community.
If you are evaluating Joomla! for a school, university, or non-profit organization, you might want to look at the Schools and Universities forum.
And, of course, don't forget to include all of the Joomla.org sites as examples of what can be done with Joomla!, since they of course are all run on our favourite CMS package.
An important feature of Joomla! is the ability for third-party developers to easily extend Joomla!'s core functionality with "Extensions". Extensions in Joomla! are third-party software programs that can be installed along with Joomla! to provide additional functionality. Joomla! is designed to be extended in this way, and, once installed, these extensions look and work just as if they were part of the core program.
One of the strengths of Joomla! is the large and active developer community creating extensions. There are over 3,500 extensions currently available, with more being added daily. Many are open source, like Joomla!. Others are offered as commercial software. To get an idea of the variety of extensions available, visit the Joomla! Extensions site.
The developer community is one part of a larger Joomla! community. For example, there are over 200,000 active registered users on the various Joomla! forums, with over 150 new participants every day. These forums are very active, with over 1,200 posts per day, and provide a high level of free support to Joomla! users. To get an idea of the types of questions answered in the forums, visit the General Questions forum.
An important question when evaluating any software package is the quality of support available. In addition to the support forums, Joomla! has a large community of skilled web professionals and consulting organizations who use Joomla! to create and maintain a wide variety of web sites. Take a look at the Professional Services forum to get a view of this community. There are also a growing number of local Joomla! user groups.
Third Party Market Studies
A recent report by the independent consulting firm water & stone concludes that Joomla! is the web's most popular open source content management system. Click here to read the complete report.
Functional Evaluation
As part of the evaluation process, you may want to understand in more depth exactly what Joomla! does and how you create a web site in Joomla! There are two aspects to evaluating Joomla!'s functionality. The first is to understand the core functionality that ships with Joomla!. The second is to understand how extensions will be used in your site.
Joomla! Core Functionality
When evaluating Joomla!, it is useful to understand its core functionality. If you are new to web development and CMS software, the Absolute Beginner's Guide to Joomla! is a good place to start.
If you are more experienced, then you might prefer to try out Joomla! using the Joomla! Demo site. Or you can download and install Joomla! on a local computer, along with the Joomla! sample website. Instructions for this are contained in the Quickstart Guide. (Note that, to install the sample data, just press the "Install Sample Data" button during step 6 of the installation wizard.)
In either case, you can try out the "back end" administrator functions of Joomla! and see how you create menus, pages, articles, and other components of your web site. Everything you see in the sample web site is created with the core functionality of Joomla!.
Joomla! Extensions
As discussed earlier, over 3,500 extensions are currently available for Joomla!, with more being added daily. Although sites can be built using only the Joomla! core software, it is likely that you will want to use extensions. Most Joomla! web sites of any size or complexity include a number of extensions, and the identification of the major extensions that you will use to provide important functionality should be part of your evaluation.
Other Joomla! Customisation
Extensions provide pre-packaged solutions that require no programming to use. Another way to extend Joomla! is to customise it. Joomla! is designed to be extended and customised in several different ways.
The appearance of the web site -- the colours, graphics, typeface, and so on -- are controlled by the site's "template". Joomla! comes with three built-in templates, and there are many templates available as pre-built extensions. If you are familiar with HTML and CSS, it is not difficult to build your own customised template. You can look at the Template Tutorial to get an idea of how templates work.
Since Joomla! is open source, any part of the program can be customised as needed. In addition, Joomla! includes a feature called "Template Overrides" which allow you to create one or more small customised programs that override parts of the standard Joomla! program. These programs work with the Joomla! core programs, and using them does not require modifying any core files. Template overrides allow you to easily customise almost any part of the way in which Joomla! renders a page.
Technical Evaluation
Joomla! is built using PHP and MySQL, the most widely used web technologies anywhere. Joomla! is of course an open source project, as are PHP and MySQL. The technical design of Joomla! recognises that, although there are great benefits from using a pre-packaged CMS package to build a web site, each web site is different and there is no single approach that will work for everyone.
The solution is to make Joomla! as easy to extend as possible, while providing a rich and reliable core feature set. As discussed earlier, Joomla! can be extended in a number of ways, including with pre-built extensions, custom templates, custom template overrides, and by customising the core programs.

Iowa State has been getting alot of press lately.. twitter was blowing up after those videos were posted
Iowa State: Anyone who's a true college basketball fan needs to see a game at Hilton Coliseum. Nice is in the DNA of Iowans and the fans here are particularly gracious -- even when the home team loses but gives a great effort, they are appreciative.
ESPN.com picked Hilton Coliseum as the "Hot Arena" in the Big 12...coaches in the league noted that, "regardless of talent, the Cyclones have a home court like no other."
I officially have a serious man crush on this dude. Can't wait to see this guy in the NFL soon.
Thank you to Kagavi & amestoplease for the sweet designs!
This guy is quickly becoming one of my favorite Cyclone players of all-time.
This is the type of leadership skills I would liek to see in one of our QB's.

I love Jake Knott. He's pure awesome. If we had a team full of guys with his dedication and heart, we'd be unstoppable.
Thank god Kirk Ferentz whiffed on him. Oops!

LED (lighting)
The acronym for Light-Emitting Diode, a type of semiconductor diode that produces visible light when powered by an electrical current. LEDs are found in a wide variety of electronics, acting as indicator lights on devices like stereos, DVD players, and computer monitors, or amassed into "light bulbs" for use in work lamps or even street lights. LEDs are growing in poularity as an even "greener" alternative to incandescent and fluorescent lights, because they have a typical lifespan of 50,000 to 100,000 hours, and product a cool, fairly bright light with very little electricity.

NOTTINGHAM, England – Nothing is set in stone, but former UFC champion Rashad Evans is likely to return to the octagon sometime in the early part of winter.
UFC President Dana White on Thursday said the former light-heavyweight titleholder, who hasn't seen action since an April title fight decision loss to Jon Jones, could even return by year's end.
"We were talking to Rashad this week and talking about him fighting maybe in December, maybe January," White said.
White then told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) Evans even could be a possibility for the already-stacked UFC 155 card set for Dec. 29 in Las Vegas.
It's not as if Evans (17-2-1 MMA, 12-2-1 UFC) hasn't been busy. Earlier this month, he helped train and then helped corner Vitor Belfort for his title fight this past week against Jones at UFC 152 in Toronto. Belfort lost that fight by fourth-round submission despite having a moment early in the fight in which he caught the champ in a tight armbar that left the champ injured.
Evans' loss to Jones at UFC 145 in April was an emotional setback after a long and at times controversial buildup. The two were former friends and training partners at the Greg Jackson camp in Albuquerque, but the well-documented rift between the two sent Evans packing and he helped form the Imperial Athletics "Blackzilians" team in Boca Raton, Fla.
Evans took Jones to a unanimous decision – just the third UFC fighter to do so, but first in Jones' title era. He even picked up a round on two of the three judges' scorecards. But in the end, Jones was his typical dominant self – though he said prior to UFC 152 that he didn't have his normal "killer instinct" against Evans.
Prior to getting his title shot against Jones, Evans was on a four-fight streak after he lost his title to Lyoto Machida at UFC 98 – which was the first loss of his career. He beat Thiago Silva and rival Quinton "Rampage" Jackson by unanimous decision, stopped Tito Ortiz with a second-round TKO and dominated Phil Davis for five rounds to advance to the shot at Jones.
Earlier this summer, Jones tweeted that he'd love a shot at UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva. But his manager subsequently told MMAjunkie.com that Evans merely meant he would fight anyone, but wasn't seriously considering a drop to 185 pounds. After winning Season 2 of "The Ultimate Fighter" at heavyweight, Evans dropped to 205 pounds, where he has been a mainstay, going 6-0-1 before winning the title against Forrest Griffin in December 2008.
If Evans does not make it onto the UFC 155 card and instead winds up in the January estimation White spoke of, it's anyone's guess where the fight might take place. The UFC has not announced plans yet for shows beyond the calendar year.
UFC 155 already includes a heavyweight title fight between champ Junior Dos Santos and Cain Velasquez; Chael Sonnen's return to light heavyweight for a rematch with Griffin; middleweight contenders bouts of Chris Weidman vs. Tim Boetsch and Alan Belcher vs. Yushin Okami; and a lightweight scrap between Gray Maynard and Joe Lauzon.
For more on the UFC's upcoming schedule, stay tuned to the UFC Rumors section of the site.

This help15 page is actively undergoing a major edit for a short while.
As a courtesy, please do not edit this page while this message is displayed. The user who added this notice will be listed in the page history. This message is intended to help reduce edit conflicts; please remove it between editing sessions to allow others to edit the page. If this page has not been edited for several hours, please remove this template, or replace it with {{underconstruction}} or {{incomplete}}.
In the Language Manager you can configure the available languages installed. You can set a default language displayed to new users, though Joomla! allows registered users to select a preferred language in the front-end.
Version Changes
In Joomla! 1.0.x the Language Manager was accessible from Site -> Language Manager -> Site Languages menu item. As only the front-end was localized in Joomla! 1.0.x, only the site languages were listed. The published language was selected in the Language drop down list of the Locale tab in the Global Configuration screen.
In Joomla! 1.5 a language is a type of extensions, so the Language Manager was moved to the Extensions menu.
Column Headers
Template:Help screen column header Number Template:Help screen column header Language Name Template:Help screen column header Default Template:Help screen column header Version Template:Help screen column header Date Template:Help screen column header Author Template:Help screen column header Author E-mail
Typical Usage
Language Manager is available by clicking its icon in the Control Panel of the administration back-end or from the Extensions -> Language Manager menu item.
To set the default language, choose the radio button of the preferred language and click on the Default toolbar icon in the top right corner.
New languages are installed with the help of the Extension Manager, then they appear in the Language Manager for configuration. You can select either Site or Administrator to display the languages for these interfaces. You can set the site in one language and administration to another. Individual articles can also be configured to use a different language (in the Advanced Parameter pane when editing the article).
Quick Tips
Quick Tips Placeholder
Using the analogy of the previous section this is the sauce and condiments that go with the meat! Provide any one liners that may not normally be obvious. These may already be known to you or you may spot something within the forums or other publications. Just ensure they work and that the wording is consistent with the rest of the document and not a straight copy of the content from other sources. Use paragraph format type and do not add extra white space. Ensure that you use the correct styles for inline emphasis and notices.
Please remove this placeholder as soon as you start entering text here.
You can switch between the installed languages for the Site end the Administrator by selecting the desired language and clicking on the Default button on the upper right part of the screen.
Points to Watch
Points to Watch Placeholder
Highlight known issues or easy traps that can be fallen into when using this function. Include references to known solutions rather than repeating the solutions here, unless considered essential. Even if there are none immediately apparent leave this section in the Help Screen - this message for future reference. Just replace this message with None Known at this Time. Use paragraph format type and do not add extra white space. Ensure that you use the correct styles for inline emphasis and notices.
Please remove this placeholder as soon as you start entering text here.
The languages listed in the Language Manager can be installed in the Extension Manager from Extensions -> Install/Uninstall menu item. The unnecessary languages can be removed on the Languages tab of the Extension Manager.
When several languages are installed, the default interface language can be overridden by a registered user on the Edit Your Details screen opened from User Menu -> Your Details menu item in the front-end after logging in. Users with administration privileges (managers, administrators and super administrators) can select the language of the back-end as well.
The selected language is displayed for the appropriate user in User Manager parameters.

Wednesday, Jan. 9, 2013
EDGEFIELD COUNTY, S.C. (WRDW) -- An 88-year-old woman is out $10,000 after scammers called her at home.
Lannie Holmes doesn't trust computers or strangers calling her on her phone.
"They prey on senior citizens," the grandmother said.
The calls began three months ago.
"They called me and said I won a sweepstakes that goes up to the thousands of dollars," Holmes said.
At first, she believed the callers from Kingston, Jamaica. All of them made the same promise of big money. However, the transactions she saw were withdrawals out of her account and into theirs.
"Over $5,000 they charged on my credit card," Holmes said.
Edgefield County investigators say Holmes was scammed out of more than $10,000 total.
"I don't know where in the world I'm going to get that money," she said.
Deputies are working to piece together the crime but catching up with overseas crooks is easier said than done.
Holmes is working with her bank to try and recoup some of the money.

this wiki
Just as they were about to leave Nimbasa City, Ash and co. meet with Trip again, who has five badges over Ash's four. Later they meet the Unova Champion Alder, the man who inspired Trip to be a Pokémon trainer when he was a kid, only to see that now many years later, he's a goofy guy. He challenges Ash to a battle and Ash gladly accepts. Who will win this battle? No one, because he accidentally fell asleep during the battle. And what in the world is going on in Alder's head anyway since a wild Gigalith goes out on an all out rampage?
- Pokémon
- Ash: What's with the turn around?
(As Bouffalant kept on going to Alder with Head Charge)
- Alder: Come on. Are you mad? Please! Stop being such a CHILD! (after being hit by Head Charge)
- Though Ash has befriended old Champions like Johto's Lance, Hoenn's Steven Stone/Wallace and Sinnoh's Cynthia, this is the first time Ash battled a champ other than his rival Trip's wishes too.
- Professor Oak's Live Caster: Zebstrika
- Who's That Pokémon?: Bouffalant (Japan), Gigalith (U.S.)

Some snap shot moments!
The last day of the cruise before we pull into port Galveston. Ted and I had such a great time meeting new people and discovering things and places. Plus, the view wasn't bad for the 'Disney Magic Office Window' during my show! Here are some photos of a few of the highlights from the big cruise.
Stare down on the Disney Magic.. MICKEY WINS!!
Tadah! Mickey Rocks!
I'm also a Big fan of Chip & Dale! They Rock!
We ran across an ATX/Lake Travis favorite in Costa Maya & Cozumel Carlos & Charlies in Costa Maya has a cool pool/bar in front of it!
Cozumel too!!
Grand Cayman Island has the cool 7 mile beach. They also had 'Hell', which we didn't get a chance to check out this time around, due to timing of my show. That's something to do for a future adventure!
Ted discovered 'Raider Nation Fans in Cozumel'!
I'm going to have to blow this picture up for a bigger one to hang at some point! I'm amazed how BLUE & BEAUTIFUL the Cozumel water was… Breath taking in person!!
Our favorite port on this cruise was Cozumel. We had about an hour there after the show. We heard that the Disney Magic will have a 4 day cruise to Cozumel leaving from Galveston soon. I'm feeling some future cruising!
Broadcast snapshot: Here is what what the 'office' looked like on the Disney Magic during the broadcast! Thanks to the Disney Cruise Line peeps for the Magical Times!
Grand Cayman giving Texas a challenge of 'Everything is Bigger' when it comes to cereal bars! This is a serious RK-Bar!!

BENTON, Ill. (AP) - The former longtime manager of Marion's water department faces federal charges that she stole more than $500,000 from the southern Illinois city.
The indictment against Linda Heyde accuses her of three embezzlement counts related to her activities between the fiscal years 2009 and 2012.
Heyde managed the water department from 1996 until last year, when she was fired after suspicious transactions were discovered in her department.
The indictment alleges police secretly installed video cameras in Heyde's office and recorded thefts. The indictment says that afterward investigators confronted her and she admitted stealing funds.
Heyde attorney John Stobbs II of Alton calls the charges "very serious" and says they "will let the process play out."
Heyde's initial court appearance and arraignment is scheduled for Feb. 5.

While it's not surprising news, today Sony announced that PlayStation Vita owners will be able to download a UMD Passport Registration Application for UMD support on PS Vita consoles, which uses both cartridges and digital downloads according to the official specs.
To quote from Kotaku (linked above): "Starting Dec. 6, the UMD Passport service will start in Japan. Here's how it works: Download a free app called "UMD Registration Application". After that, enter your UMD game disc into your PSP, and according to the on-screen prompts, register your UMD via your PSN Account. The UMD will then be available for purchase.
Once the PS Vita is released in Japan on Dec. 17, you can then download the title on your new Sony handheld. According to Sony, the games will be available at an "agreeable price".
Currently, 40 game companies are offering 200 UMD titles as part of Sony's UMD Passport program. The digital versions of the games are priced anywhere between ¥100 (US$1.29) to ¥2,400 ($31).
Here is a selection of titles to give you an idea of how much the downloads cost on UMD Passort: Patapon 3 (¥1,000 or $13), Gran Turismo (¥1,000 or $13), Hot Shots Golf Portable 2 PSP the Best (¥500 or $6.40), Colin McRae: DiRT 2 (¥1,000 or $13), Dynasty Warriors: PSP the Best (¥500 or $6.40), Persona 3 Portable: PSP the Best (¥1,500 or $19), and Guilty Gear: Judgment (¥500 or $6.40).
This is not a full list of titles, and other companies, such as Konami and Capcom, are participating. Expect pricing and titles at a later date. Obviously, Sony did not disclose U.S. pricing, but one could assume that games priced at, for example, ¥500 would be priced at $5 in the U.S."
For those curious, PSVita will be released in Japan on December 17 and both Hong Kong and Taiwan on December 23, 2011.
A European and North American release are currently both slated for February 22, 2012.

- Abstract
- A doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) as a part of a wind energy conversion system (WECS) is modelled in detail using d-q vector control approach.Apart from the constant speed,the variable wind speed operation is demonstrated by utilising simple SIMULINK blocks where the effectiveness of the controller is well established.It would be a useful alternative approach,different from other previous approaches where the complex statistical wind speed data is absent for experimental simulation model of DFIG based WECS.Later,initial transient response time for both fixed and variable wind speed and parameter dependency of transient time (including inertia constant) has been emphasised and demonstrated with different sets of parameter.

Volunteers are motivated to serve others through a variety of ways. This month's "2 Those Who Care" recipient says she is simply following in the footsteps of a former recipient.
Faye Cornwell says she saw a "2 Those Who Care" program nine years ago and was inspired by one of the outstanding volunteers. The next morning, she called the Guilford County Schools and signed up to volunteer. Since then, her service has grown to an all day, everyday commitment.
Faye says helping the children in the classroom excel is all the motivation she needs to keep her coming back every day.

Annual Notification to City College of San Francisco Students
FERPA and Privacy Rights of Students
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) affords students certain rights with respect to their education records. These rights include:
(1) The right to inspect and review the student's education records within 45 days of the day the College receives a request for access.
A student should submit to the registrar, dean, head of the academic department, or other appropriate official, a written request that identifies the record(s) the student wishes to inspect. The College official will make arrangements for access and notify the student of the time and place where the records may be inspected. If the records are not maintained by the College official to whom the request was submitted, that official shall advise the student of the correct official to whom the request should be addressed.
(2) The right to request the amendment of the student's education records that the student believes are inaccurate, misleading, or otherwise in violation of the student's privacy rights under FERPA.
A student who wishes to ask the College to amend a record should write the College official responsible for the record, clearly identify the part of the record the student wants changed, and specify why it should be changed.
If the College decides not to amend the record as requested, the College will notify the student in writing of the decision and the student's right to a hearing regarding the request for amendment. Additional information regarding the hearing procedures will be provided to the student when notified of the right to a hearing.
(3) The right to provide written consent before the College discloses personally identifiable information from the student's education records, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent.
The College discloses education records without a student's prior written consent under the FERPA exception for disclosure to school officials with legitimate educational interests. A school official is a person employed by the College in an administrative, supervisory, academic or research, or support staff position (including law enforcement unit personnel and health staff); a person or company with whom the College has contracted as its agent to provide a service instead of using College employees or officials (such as an attorney, auditor, or collection agent); a person serving on the Board of Trustees; or a student serving on an official committee, such as a disciplinary or grievance committee, or assisting another school official in performing his or her tasks.
A school official has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs to review an education record in order to fulfill his or her professional responsibilities for the College.
(4) The right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education concerning alleged failures by the University to comply with the requirements of FERPA. The name and address of the Office that administers FERPA is:
Family Policy Compliance Office
U.S. Department of Education
400 Maryland Avenue, SW
Washington, DC 20202-5901
As provided for in the Act, a student's personal information can not be released to any other person without the written consent of the student. A photo identification will be required to access information. Official student records are kept in the Office of Admissions and Records. The Dean of Admissions and Records has been designated "Record Officer," as required by the Act.
Under Section 76230 of the Education Code, current and formerly-enrolled students have an absolute right of access to their own records. One exception is that under Section 76231 of the Education Code, students may waive their right of access to confidential reference letters.
Under Section 49061 of the Education Code, parents of community college students do not have a right of access to their children's student records, regardless of whether the student is under the age of 18. Also, under federal law (Section 1232g of Title 20 of the United States Code, there is a general right of parental access to student records, but not for college students, regardless of age.
Under Section 76244 of the Education Code, a District must make a "reasonable effort" to notify a student in advance of the production of his or her records under subpoena.
The Federal Solomon Act requires colleges to release full directory information (including address) to U.S. Armed Forces.

It was quite simple – young David Falk was out of money.
"I came up short. I didn't have it."
That was 1938, when he could not afford the balance of his undergraduate tuition. His school offered help.
"That was very impressive to me."
David Falk, MD '43, of Palm Springs, CA, never forgot that day, making it his goal to support students feeling the financial pressures of higher education as soon as he was able.
|The generosity of David Falk, MD, has provided scholarship support for many Albany Medical College students.
In 2012, he established two additional endowed funds with a gift of $2.5 million. To recognize Albany Med's outstanding leadership, he created the James J. and Rose A. Barba Endowed Education Fund and the Vincent P. Verdile Chair of Emergency Medicine.
"Dr. Falk's personal support has helped develop some of our top medical minds," said Christopher King, MD, who will be first to hold the title of Vincent P. Verdile Chair of Emergency Medicine at Albany Med. "Those inquisitive minds of our medical students combine with the expertise of our faculty physicians to create more ideas for improving patient care."
"I like the idea of inspiring others to make their own gifts," Dr. Falk said. "I encourage them to join me in guaranteeing students receive a superior medical education."
Dr. Falk's support has created innumerable opportunities for medical professionals, past and present. The example he has set ensures those opportunities continue far into Albany Med's future.
