TortoiseHG and wildcard certificates
Having resolved recent SSL certificate issues with Mercurial/TortoiseHG, I now encountered a similar issue with the wildcard certificate for
*.google.com where getting a clone would result in a
"SSL: Server certificate verify failed" error.
One way around this issue is to add the fingerprint for this certificate to your configuration. Currently for
*.google.com this is
4b:b7:cc:81:2c:b9:00:3a:75:97:10:27:43:61:0b:93:d9:7c:3c:19 and one to get this from a Unix command line is with
openssl s_client -connect code.google.com:443 | openssl x509 -in cert-code -fingerprint -noout | tr "[:upper:]" "[:lower:]". This corresponds with Chrome's certificate view's thumbprint field, you just need to add colons.
Right click in Explorer, select
TortoiseHG » Global Settings and then click
Edit File and add the following:
code.google.com = 4b:b7:cc:81:2c:b9:00:3a:75:97:10:27:43:61:0b:93:d9:7c:3c:19
This should make Mercurial/TortoiseHG work, at least until the certificate expires and you need to update it with the latest fingerprint.

They say that character can be defined as "What you do when no one is looking"… well the fact is it seems that someone is always looking.
Someone is always there to let you know how you are doing or to be critical of that which you did.
You never stop learning, I learned a lot this past weekend while on a twenty mile back packing trek with some Scouts and Scouters from my Order of the Arrow Chapter.
One of the things that I learned was that as a young man, I forged the Character that I have now. That seems a bit obvious but what I mean by that is this; I did not realize how my early formation was going to manifest itself until now.
When I was nineteen years old, I attended the US Army Ranger School at Ft. Benning, GA. Ranger School is a leadership school that tests the individuals leadership skills in adverse conditions and under stress. The school imposes the stress by reducing your food and sleep and putting the students in challenging situations that require critical thinking and decision making.
They break your body and mind down and watch as the student builds it back over the course.
It is like doing push ups. When you do push ups you tear muscle, as that muscle repairs it gets stronger and stronger.
And so it is with character, the more it is challenged and torn at, the stronger it gets.
In Ranger School, I learned that I could push my mind and body to its farthest limit, and when I got the point where I could go no more, I found that I could take at least one more step. And if I could take one more, then I could get the other foot out there… and soon I was pushing past the limits.
I learned this on Sunday as I watched my oldest son climbing out of the Eagle Creek valley on the trek. A five mile stretch of constant climbing, this after seven miles of switch backs and a heavy pack. I watched him as he took the climb head on, never complaining. He kept putting one foot in front of the other. I was in front of him most of the trek, and could hear his foot steps on the trail, he motivated me to push on. It was not Ranger School, but after a hard day of hiking on Saturday and working on trail improvements, my body was tired and I could feel every step I took in my aging knees.
A discussion we had the night before about how easy all of this is compared to Ranger School got me to thinking that it was no harder, nor was it easier, it was all a matter of character at this point. Ranger School forged that Character in me, a drive to never give up, to never let the team down, to complete every task… no matter what the circumstances. As I look back I know that I was tested and I past.
We all are tested, these tests forge our Character. They set the course for how we will conduct ourselves in the future. These tests will determine whether or not we take one more step or quit.
IF you take that one more step, when you think you can't, when you have had enough, when everything is against you… you will have Character and you will be a better man for it. You will have been shaped into a fine man that can be counted on, that will never fail or let others down.
When that happens you will never have to worry about who is watching or what they see, because they will see a man of Character.
Have a Great Scouting Day!

Can strange things happen, that matters. I don't know, but strange indeed are the day's I live in. To keep sane is a big struggle and without ears plugged with music. I would not know where I would be.
Anyhow here is a spooky story.
I met an old woman a couple a weeks back and she talked about many things, fools and queens, high and low. But what I previously did not remember was how she spoke about a book, her exact words I don't know, but she talked about an o and a dot.
Then I forget about her, and a week later I sat down and thought a poem on a piece of math would be so perfect. Thinking about my old ford and the day's back when I was young I got into the right mood of writing the poem. And the dance went on. At the end I saw that it was not perfect. I wanted to move the text to the right and wrote "o." at the beginning without knowing why, I just did it cause writing a poem is to express feelings and then I just relax and let the hand walk across the keyboard. So, focus! It struck me, just struck me, don't ask me why,..., why don't write "o.o" instead of "o." and so I did. And so I did.
And so I did, I need to keep that python syntax correct, don't I.
And time passes, life went boring and I took a walk to the library. I stood there just feeling empty and pointed the finger at a shelf of books, letting the finger wander from book to book, reading the titles without thinking, and then I picked, as it felt, randomly, the Illusionist by Fowler.
This is a kind of cool book and in the beginning the character of importance move to a lonely place, becomes depressed and decide to shoot himself with a shotgun. And at the moment the trigger is supposed to go off, Fowler writes the characters o and dot. Probably, to make an illusion of end of life.
The effect of this happening to me is tremendous. I had a brother you know, and his life did not end with an illusion. I took a long walk and did not calm down until I met a family of deers that just stood there about 10m in front of me, relaxing, and reminded me about how life goes on.

Q: To what or whom would you dedicate this collection, or what inspired this collection?
A: I grew up in a quilting family and my mom taught me to sew when I was very young. My grandma taught me to embroider when I was 6, my other grandma taught me to crochet at about the same time and I have loved handwork ever since. So, this line was inspired by stitches. Quilting stitches, embroidery stitches or crochet stitches. And of course, circles and polka dots! The colors and prints were inspired by all of the fabrics that my mom used to let me pick out for the dresses she would sew for me when I was a young girl. I always chose polka dots, rose or daisy prints and gingham.
|These circles were cut using Lori's new ruler!
A: I'm working on projects now to be released as new patterns. Some of my favorites so far are things for the sewing room.
Q: What would be your collection's theme song?
A: Probably 'Do-Re-Mi' from The Sound of Music. Especially the line "sew, a needle pulling thread."
Q: If you could live in a movie, what movie would it be?
A: One of Doris Day's movies would be fun. So vintage and campy, the songs were fun and the clothes were adorable!
Q: What do you get nostalgic over?
A: Music makes me nostalgic. Whenever I hear a song from my childhood I am transported back in time.
Q: What is your favorite TV show of all time?
A: Gilmore Girls, hands down.
Q: If you could be a modern day fictional character, who would you be?
A: Anne with an "E".
Q: What's the strangest compliment you've ever received?
A: That my house looks like a "dollhouse" or that my garden doesn't look "real." I don't know if those are compliments or not!

|Warmwater flyfishing Bass, pike and even muskies in your backyard
|Topic Review (Newest First)
I once fished for northerns with a 9' 6 wt and tossed normal sized pike flies of 6"-9" with it without problems. I used a 7 wt floating shooting head and flies tied on Sealy 3/0 4XL hooks (a hook that has not been made for many years, unfortunately). However, the flies were tied long through the use of whole saddle feathers tied pusher style on the rear of the hook, Aunt Lydia's Rug Yarn for a body, a saddle hackle palmered on the body with a few extra turns at the front, and .035 lead wrapped on the front 1/3 of the body to get a jig-effect on the retrieve.
I was able to cast them 60'-70' with the 7 wt floating shooting head because, as was mentioned, the flies did not hold water. I was returning from trout fishing and the fellow I was with wanted to try and catch a pike because he had not done so before on a fly rod. He had an 8 wt along with his 6 wt with him; alas, I only had my 6 wt. I did have a few pike flies stuffed in my fihsing vest though.
I found it is very possible to fish with even a 6 wt for pike and be able to cast a large pike-sized flies (provided they were made of materials that did not soad up and hold water) with it. The rod was nearly worthless for pumping in pike over about 8 pounds though. I did manage to land one of around 25 pounds that day; but it was no fun on the 6 wt. I would never pike fish again with anything smaller than an 8 wt.
|Thanks for your help, I've been tryin to tell him to take my 8 weight at least. I guess it took someone else to tell him to convince him.
|Dble Haul
|Despite your father insisting on a 7 weight, let him know that a heavier weight would be far better for the fish and fisherman. There's another thread below this one that explains all the pros of going heavier than 7.
|Most of the patterns listed in the Fly Archives will work reasonably well with a "fast" 7 Wt. If you are tying these, make them shorter, say 3-4 inches instead of 5-8 inches long. Also, try to reduce the weight by using materials that do not suck up water. Avoid rabbit, wool, etc. they really get heavy when water logged, use synthetics instead. Avoid heavy epoxy heads as well. Better to use a sinking tip than a heavier fly.
Pike flies
I'm tying patterns for my dad's trip up to Nuelton lake. He insists on a seven weight rod. Does any one have any suggestions on good patterns for pike in the 25lb. range that can be casted on such a light rod?

Safety alert: Don't feed animals on campus
By Keith Kewley
Asbestos Management Coordinator, Office of Environmental Health, Safety and Risk Management
(Nov. 21, 2008)--Many people at UTSA are animal lovers and many feel sorry for the feral (or stray) cats that live and wander about our campuses. With colder weather approaching, more people may have this desire to help the animals by feeding them or offering temporary shelter from the weather elements. Please don't.
Today's headlines
- La Prensa Foundation is newest member of UTSA Lone Star Society
- UTSA alumna Jordan Kaufmann wins $50K for new stent-graft start-up
- UTSA begins new way-finding sign installation this summer at Main Campus
- USA Today: UTSA long jumper Tyler Williamson rescues three-year-old boy
Article tools
Feral cats are actually wild animals and can inflict serious injury if cornered or scared into a defensive mode. In addition to the cats, other wild animals such as skunks, opossums and mice -- which bring in snakes -- are attracted to this easy food source.
This brings more wild animals closer to UTSA buildings and human contact. Having wild animals in close proximity to our buildings and people increases the potential for injuries caused by animals.
For the best possible outcome, do not feed the animals -- this allows them to maintain their natural hunting instincts for food and prevents animal or human confrontations.
For more information, contact the Office of Environmental Health, Safety and Risk Management at (210) 458-5250.

Those Who Came Before Us by Researched and Written by Maggie and Ed Stokes | Make Your Own Book
This great idea is so simple and straightforward, I'm surprised I didn't think of it. Authors Maggie and Ed Stokes did a beautiful, elegant job of it!
- Create a family history book by writing a short biography/character sketch of each person in your family tree. Whether a few paragraphs or a few pages, try to focus on the whole individual, not just his or her role in the family.
- If available, choose a few good photos of each individual at different ages to illustrate his/her story.
- Try to make the narrative warm and friendly, not clinical and detached!

ANZ's Truckometer rebounded last month, but suggests the economy is not off to a strong start this year.
The Truckometer's heavy traffic index - which tracks truck movements on 11 roads selected to provide a good indicator of contemporaneous economic activity - rose 2.5 per cent in January.
However, that clawed back only half the fall recorded in December.
"The half-hearted bounceback from the December fall is, in context, not the most promising start to the March quarter," ANZ economist Sharon Zollner said.
"The underlying picture according to this indicator remains one of softness across the economy."
On an annual basis the index, which historically has had a close fit to annual gross domestic product growth, is subdued and heading towards zero.
However, ANZ expects the economy to grow 2.3 per cent this year in annual average terms.
Zollner said anecdotal evidence suggest the Christchurch rebuild was starting to hit critical mass, but that source of growth would not be fully captured by the Truckometer.
Meanwhile, the Truckometer's light traffic index, which tracks cars and vans, reversed its fall in December.

A Requiem for Proposition 37? Not if Californians Vote "Yes" Tomorrow
Posted On November 5, 2012 by George Leonard
My latest post for National Geographic Ocean Views, about how an anti-Prop. 37 ad blitz from companies like Monsanto is threatening Californians' right to know what they're eating, is drawing lots of discussion. Here's an excerpt from the post:
While Ocean Conservancy concludes we don't have enough information about the impacts of GE fish to move forward yet, like many supporters of Prop. 37, we also strongly believe that GE salmon should be clearly labeled if the federal Food and Drug Administration approves it for sale.
Up until relatively recently, we were in good company with virtually twice as many California's in support versus opposed to the initiative.
Then the money came in to play. Continue reading »

(To pause on a particular slide, mouse over the lower edge to make control arrows appear.)
From about 1888-1891, Kate Pettis Kerr lived in Omaha, Nebraska, where she worked as an artist. She was listed in the 1888 city directory as an airbrush artist, while later editions listed her simply as artist. Still single in 1888 and 1889, she was listed as Miss Kate E. Pettis. Her mother, who was living there with her in 1889, was listed as Mrs. Kate E. Pettis. They lived at 706 N. 16th.
In 1889, Kate was also listed under Art Schools, located at 520 Paxton Block with another artist, Miss Mellona Butterfield.
Listed again under the Artists heading in 1890, Miss Butterfield now had the designation "(china)" after her name, and she had moved to 421 Paxton Block. Kate's business remained at 520 Paxton Block but she had married and was now listed as Mrs. K.E. Kerr. She was boarding at the Esmond Hotel, where she was listed again in 1891.
I'm sure there must be other examples of Kate's art still in existence. They may or may not be signed. Possible signatures include K.E. Pettis and K.E. Kerr. I think much of her work was airbrushed, but she also worked in oils and may have done sketches as well. I know she sometimes worked from a photograph of her subject, as she did with the oil painting of her son shown above in the slideshow.

Tony Lewis gave CPJ authority, devotion over decades
Back in 1981, when CPJ was being formed and its board of directors assembled, Tony Lewis, who died today at age 85, was one of the first people we approached. As the author of books such as Gideon's Trumpet, as a widely read columnist for The New York Times, and as an outspoken defender of press freedom, he seemed a natural choice for the board. At the time, CPJ was an idea without money, office, or staff, but Tony at once saw the value of such an organization and signed on. His presence on CPJ's board and masthead helped give the organization immediate credibility; his devoted participation was invaluable as we expanded in size and mission over the next 30 years.

Can I add more fish to my tank?
Hi all,
I had my aquarium for a while and would like to do some additions. Please share your opinion.
50 gallon
lightly planted with real plants
some rocks and two driftwood pieces for hiding places
sand bottom
1 redtail shark (2.5 inches)
4 kissing gouramis (2x 5.5 inches, 2x3.5inches)
3 african dwarf frogs (1inch)
-i would like to add some loaches and was wondering if there's still space for them?
thinking about 2-3 angelicus botias. I believe clown loaches would be too big for the tank.
Please let me know your opinion.
Also would the botia's eat the food of the frogs, since the latter are slow eaters?
Thanks so much.

since you dont seem to have any major bottom dwellers the loaches should be a great addition to your tank. As far a eating the frog food, its first come first served usually on that topic.
I would think this could be too much fish
The kissing gouramis will get about 6 inches and the red tail shark about 4 or 5 inches. Thats a lot of fish in a 50 gallon tankIf you take your time to do the research FIRST, you can successfully set-up and keep ANY type of aquarium with ease.
"Not using a quarantine tank is like playing Russian roulette. Nobody wins the game, some people just get to play longer than others." - Anthony Calfo
Fishless Cycle Cycling with Fish Marine Aquarium Info [URL="http://saltwater.aquaticcommunity.com/"]
Kissing gouramis exceed six inches. They may stay smaller in aquaria, but in the wild they push 12 inches. The red tail shark alone could occupy a 50 gallon due to its territoriality. Any other bottom dwellers will be relentlessly pursued. You may not be overstocked now, but as your fish grow, you will quickly face stunting , territorial aggression and water quality issues. I would recommend finding a new home for all the gouramis, as even a single one may be too much for a 50 gallon. You can keep the redtail, but not with other bottom dwellers. Some feisty top dwellers tough enough to stand up to the redtail, such as certain barbs, might be a possibility.
I agree with madagascariensis.

Thanks so much for all the answers. So you mean barbs instead of gouramis right? I saw a lot of tanks with loaches and red tail shark though. Are you sure there are no other bottom dwellers allowed? Will the RTS go after the frogs eventually?
You may have seen tanks containing both before, but they usually fall under 3 categories, or in more than one of the three. The first and best is that they are sufficiently monstrously large and well decorated to allow all fish to have their space. The second is that the fish are young and thus do not have the territorial urges of adults(as soon as the fish get bigger then mayhem ensues). The last is that there may be something else about the tank(lack of decoration, bad water, disease, etc) that stresses the fish so much that they do not behave the way a reasonably healthy fish behaves.
Or else, have you observed the tank for a long time? Even the most territorial fish will not devote ALL of its life trying to fight others. A 5 minute glance may not show all of the tanks dynamics.

This brilliant doctor started his ascendant career with a $2 million grant from NASA in the early 80s for stem cell research.
I'm sure he's repaid that grant many times over with the wealth, jobs, and life-saving therapies he's created. The latest is a fiber optic network that will allow doctors to identify the DNA of a tumor within a minute!
Along the way, he became a billionaire businessman and a generous philanthropist. Somebody should have asked him how to improve health care before the legislation was written. His newest innovation will be a great help ... cancer treatments can be more successful and effective as a result of his entrepreneurship.
And on Wednesday in Washington DC, Soon-Shiong and his L.A.-based NantHealth will unveil a joint venture with Verizon, Intel, Blue Shield of California and others to create a nationwide system for doctors to share DNA and other data on cancer patients. It will enable doctors to do genetic analysis of a patient's tumor in less than a minute -- a job that now can take from eight to 10 weeks.
"This is something the federal government should have done, but we waited and waited for them," Soon-Shiong told Reuters in an interview.
"It's unconscionable that cancer patients get the wrong diagnosis 30 percent of the time and that it takes so long to treat them with appropriate drugs for their cancer."

Quick Guide to Invoice and Accounts Receivable Factoring
What is invoice factoring?
Invoice factoring is essentially a financial transaction where a company/business sells its accounts receivables (or invoices) at a discount to another company. This other company is then responsible for collecting on that invoice from the third party.
There are typically three parties involved in a factoring transaction: the seller, debtor, and the factor. The seller is owed money (accounts receivable) by the debtor. The seller then sells its invoices at a certain discount to the factor (third party finance company) to get immediate cash. Ultimately, the debtor pays the full invoice amount to the factor, therefore the factor makes a percentage gain on the account.
Different factoring loans you can consider
There are two main types of factoring loans that one can choose from when it comes to jumpstarting your business with extra funding. Recourse factoring is an option that requires you to pay for any funds not collected by your factor. In turn, the factor you are working with charges you a cheaper rate for these accounts receivable financing services.
Non-recourse is another type of invoice factoring where the factor assumes all risk if they are unable to collect your unpaid sums. This option is more expensive, but can provide more reliability unlike the other option. If you are unsure with which route to take, speak with a factoring business in your area to determine which type of factorization services will be best suitable for your situation.
Why you should consider factoring your invoices or accounts receivable
Many businesses have cash flow problems. Sometimes customers pay 30-120 days after being invoiced, which can cripple certain businesses. So, a business can choose to factor those accounts receivables and get the cash now for a slight discount. To many companies, factoring invoices can be a boon to business. It allows them to get immediate cash flow and to grow more aggressively.
Factors focus on the credit worthiness of the debtor, not the seller, when deciding to factor an invoice; many times in cases that a normal bank wouldn't loan money against.
How to choose the right factoring company
You should always talk with several different companies to get a feel for their individual styles of business. You can use Resource Nation's Factoring matching service above to have 5 high-quality factoring companies contact you.
- Have a meeting (phone or in-person) with each company that contacts you.
- Gauge their professionalism, their mannerisms, how they treat you, and their experience level.
- Remember, these people will be dealing with some of your most valuable clients/customers to collect payment on your invoices.
- You don't want an unprofessional or inexperienced company contacting your clients and harassing them.
- You want your clients to have a good experience when dealing with these people so that it doesn't sour your relationship with them.
- You should also review all letters and correspondence that the factoring company uses to contact clients.
- Find out how the factoring company handles past-due accounts and at what stage they refer the client to collections.
Questions to Ask When Outsourcing Invoice Factoring
When you are near the decision making part of your invoice factoring process, there are a few additional questions you will need to ask your chosen factor. One question to ask that will end up saving you time and money is whether or not your factor will be able to accept fewer invoices with larger amounts. Choosing to go this route will save your factoring business more time in the long run and save you in fees charged. Another question to ask during the factorization process to save you money is in regards to negotiating for more money up front. Factors may allow for a larger sum in the beginning of the accounts receivable financing process, in exchange for a higher discount rate.
Read more about how to choose a factoring company from our Buyer Guide and by conducting your own preliminary research.
If you have slow paying clients, ask the factor how they go about collecting sums and the duration of the time they allow for each client to take to pay off their invoices. Factoring loans can be a great way to feed extra money into your company, but make sure to decide on the most qualified factor for the job and review costs associated with it beforehand.

At about 4 p.m. Dec. 15, Sarasota County Commission Chairwoman Nora Patterson signed the contract with new County Administrator Randall H. Reid, officially making him the successor to former County Administrator Jim Ley.
"I am excited about it and I look forward to his coming and bringing us a fresh perspective," Patterson said Dec. 15. "I think he's a very capable and respected administrator, and I think we deserve no less."
County Attorney Stephen DeMarsh had reported Dec. 14 that Reid had signed the contract and mailed it back to Sarasota County. DeMarsh had sent Reid the contract last week after Reid had passed the physical and the final background check county policy stipulated.
Patterson's signature was the last action needed before Reid could start his new job. Reid is expected to begin work in late January. As Alachua County manager, he had to give his board in Gainesville a 60-day notice that he was leaving, after the Sarasota County Commission offered him the administrator's job.
Patterson said Reid is eager to get to know Sarasota County residents. When he arrives, she said, "I think people will be seeing a lot of him."

Mike. I agree with you wholeheartedly...to a point.
I think a person can become over obsessed with breeding a clear "everything" dog and not consider that this dog can't mark and has a poor temperament (example), whereas another dog maybe be "less" clear and have exceptional non testable traits and never be considered by the same person.
I proudly bred an EIC carrier female...something that is debatable amongst folks...although less now then a couple of years ago.
I also spayed a wonderful dog that has Retinal Folds (RD/OSD carrier). She's on the Derby List, is QAA and running Opens now. Vision NOT an issue at all. She has a spectacular temperament, can flat out mark, is great in the water...yadda...yadda...yadda. Do I wish I could breed her to have what I think is a wonderful addition to the gene pool?? Yes, absolutely. Do I regret spaying her? Only in moments of weakness. Do I think she should be bred? No, absolutely not.
I think SOME genetic issues should not totally eliminate an otherwise wonderful dog from the gene pool and I think some people can get too focused on clearances rather then the dog itself. But would I want to mess with health affecting issues that are PROVEN to be genetic? No.
Not one dog in our breed is truly "clear" of everything.

It was not a stellar week in county girls' basketball last week. Only one team came away with a single win, while all other contests reported were losses.
Munroe 52
Tallavana 14
The Lady Cats defeated the Lady Lions in a 2A-District 1 competition at the Munroe gym last Thursday night. Audrey Thomas used her height to her advantage, and the senior center earned a double-double with 17 points and 10 rebounds. Mollie Edwards followed with 12 points. Edwards and Kaitlyn Sirmons dished out four assists each, and Kadejah Glynn recorded three steals.
Local tennis star Hilary Flournoy has had many scholarship offers from all around, but she has made her final decision.
She will be attending Georgia South Western University in Americus, Ga.
She loves the college because of its beautiful campus, outstanding academics, and most of all, the tough division II athletic conference the tennis team is in.
She said all the hard work has finally paid off, and she plans to work even harder now to show the college it made a great choice recruiting her.
Although all three county teams played last week, only West Gadsden came away with a win — three of them, to be exact. Munroe lost three contests, two that they led at the half and East Gadsden dropped one to Florida High.
West Gadsden Lady Panthers
West Gadsden 47
Bozeman 11
Sharae Williams scored 19 points to lead the Panthers to a win over Bozeman. The team led 22-5 at the half and never slowed down.

Tie-break fiasco robs Claymores of World final [11:26 AM]
Evening Times reports: Ken Simonton today urged the NFL to scrap the Europe League set-up after the Scottish Claymores finished tied for top spot but still missed out on World Bowl XI.
RB Simonton and his teammates defeated the Amsterdam Admirals 31-14 at Hampden Park yesterday to finish off the season with a 6-4 record.
That put Gene Dahlquist's on-form side level with German giants Frankfurt Galaxy and Rhein Fire after a dramatic final weekend of fixtures.
But they failed to qualify for the World Bowl due to an unusual three way tie-breaker system, which means Galaxy and Fire will fight it out at Hampden on Saturday.
And Buffalo Bills allocate Simonton, who capped a sensational season by rushing for 151 yards and was named MVP, reckons that is unfair. "My job is just to play football. At the end of it all we didn't do what we needed to do in order to get to the World Bowl," he said. "It is up to other people to examine how the league works. But I do think they have got to re-evaluate what's being done as it makes no sense. It doesn't add up."
Ex-athlete helps youths score [5:24 AM]
Detroit News reports: 'He was an All-American guard on the University of Michigan football team and a six-time all-pro lineman in the National Football League, playing 13 seasons and opening holes for O.J. Simpson when the Buffalo Bills star became the first professional player to rush for more than 2,000 yards in a single season. After retiring from football, he moved into the front office of the Seattle Seahawks and experienced first-hand the lavish lifestyles of the rich and famous at NFL owner meetings. But McKenzie never forgot where he came from -- the hard-scrabble neighborhoods of Highland Park and Detroit -- or the youngsters who reminded him so much of himself.'
Training Camp Preview: Buffalo Bills [10:48 PM]
Fanball reports: Position Battles: Reed wants to earn his starting assignment in training camp, but the job is already his�barring injury. The Bills brought in veteran Bobby Shaw and drafted Sam Aiken in the fourth round, but they will fall in line along with Charles Johnson at numbers three, four, and five. Shaw is the likely three, the role he played the last two seasons in Pittsburgh and Jacksonville.
You never have enough running backs [10:47 PM]
NFL.com reports: The Buffalo Bills had the AFC's fifth best performer in Travis Henry last season, yet they still drafted Willis McGahee, who won't be ready for another year. The Bills may still need to add one more to the roster.
Bills To Hold Public Practice On June 13 [10:04 AM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: Buffalo Bills fans will have a double treat on Friday, June 13th when the team will have an open practice on the final day of its Organized Team Activity, weather permitting.

Just sue, baby: Raiders lead league in litigation [10:02 AM]
Buffalo News reports: Bucky Brooks, the former Bills WR, has taken a job as a scout with Carolina. He has scouted for Seattle the last three years. He's a native of Raleigh, NC.
Akili Smith was cut by Cincinnati this week. In four years, he earned about $12 million, or $4 million per victory. Not bad, but not quite as good as Rob Johnson, who got $18.8 million in four years with the Bills.
Bills need to find out if coach is the ticket [9:51 AM]
Buffalo News reports: 'Gregg Williams is the cloud hanging over all those high expectations. The Bills don't even pretend he isn't. They didn't offer him an extension to his first contract. It expires in January. When he's done, he's done unless he produces his end of the bargain. My guess is that Williams will have to steer the Bills to the playoffs, possibly even at least one playoff victory, to stick around Buffalo.'
Mini camp open to public [9:41 AM]
Buffalo News reports: 'The Bills will make the final practice of their "minicamp" sessions open to the public Friday. Gates 2 and 3 at Ralph Wilson Stadium will open at 10 a.m. Practice will start at 10:30 a.m. and end at 12:15 p.m. Admission to the workout, which the NFL calls an organized team activity, is free. It also will be the fans' first chance to see the new AstroPlay surface inside the stadium.'
Veterans add to Bills depth [5:49 AM]
D and C reports: 'Donahoe said the Bills will look to add an offensive linemen and possibly a defensive lineman before camp starts July 23.'
Titans waiting to make cap room for free agents [7:59 PM]
Nashville Tennessean reports: 'How concerned are the Buffalo Bills that rookie running back Willis McGahee will try to overdo it in his zeal to return from reconstructive knee surgery? Enough that they will send some of the team's medical staff to Miami twice in the month between the end of the team's current minicamp and the opening of training camp next month.'
Travis Brown out to prove he's arrived [9:07 AM]
Buffalo News reports: '"He's a big guy and has a great arm," Van Pelt said. "The only thing he's lacking is the experience. The more you get to play the more you feel comfortable. He'll get the chance to step in there and do it with live bullets. He definitely has all the skills."'
Player Q&A: DT Justin Bannan [9:19 PM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: '"Defensive wise we did bring in some guys that can make a huge impact. Change? I don't think we're going to change too much. I think we have great players.

In the case of OpenSEES as finite element code, how can I set the solver paramenters for the application of the static load and the displacement control analysis? I would like to use different settings for the two cases.

Transfer Applicants
We are delighted that you are considering a transfer to Denison University!
Transfer Application Requirements:
- Common Application for Transfers
- Official Final High School Transcript
- Official University/College Transcript
- College Report (from college or university most recently attended)
- College Instructor Evaluation
- SAT and/or ACT test scores (submission is optional). We accept scores recorded on an official high school transcript
To apply, students should complete the Transfer Common Application.
If you have any questions, please contact an Admission Transfer Coordinator:
- Domestic Transfers: Ann McIntyre
- International Transfers: Check back soon
Application Deadlines
Our transfer application deadline for January admission is November 15, and for August admission May 15. Applications need to be completed and in our hands by the corresponding deadline. As transfer applicants are accepted on a rolling basis, please be aware that we accept only a limited number of transfer students based on enrollment and residential availability.
Enrollment Requirement
A non-refundable Enrollment Deposit of $300.00 is required for admission.
August Orientation & January Orientation
In August, transfer students arrive on-campus with the incoming first-year class. This allows transfer students an opportunity to become familiar with the campus and also to meet other transfer students. During August Orientation there are special sessions tailored to the interests of transfer students. For those transfer students entering in January, there will be an individual orientation held at that time.
For specific questions concerning this orientation please contact Christie Kasson
Frequently Asked Questions
A minimum of a 3.00 GPA is required to apply for admission.
Denison considers applications from first-year students on a limited and selective basis.
Transfer students are automatically considered for merit scholarships which range from $16,000-$24,000.
Students are strongly encouraged to visit campus and arrange an interview. Preference will be given to students who have interviewed. A campus tour and interview may be scheduled online or by calling 1-740-587-0810. Whether you schedule online or by telephone, be sure to identify yourself as a transfer applicant.
If admitted to Denison, Trish Spence, Transfer Credit Coordinator, will do a transfer credit evaluation. This evaluation includes a summary of all courses and credit hours acceptable toward graduation from Denison, as well as what General Education requirements will need to be fulfilled at Denison. The Transfer Credit Coordinator can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com or by calling 740-587-6658.
Credit for course work completed at an accredited college or university normally will transfer, if the credits are in a discipline taught at Denison and if a minimum grade of 'C' was awarded. However, all course work must be approved by the department or program to receive credit, fulfill a general education requirement, or to be applied towards a major, minor or concentration. Therefore, it is pertinent that students submit all course syllabi information to the Office of the Registrar to begin the approval process.
For additional information, please refer to the Transfer Credit Policy.
Once the transfer of course work has been approved, the Registrar's Office will provide a copy of the credit evaluation. This evaluation will indicate those courses/credits approved to transfer to Denison as course equivalencies, fulfillment of general education requirements and fulfillment of major, minor or concentration requirements, or general credits towards graduation. There is no limit to the amount of transfer credit Denison will accept.
However, to be eligible for a Denison degree, students must complete at least 64 semester hours of credit at Denison; most courses are 4 credits. If you have received an Associate degree, it does not guarantee that you will enter Denison as a junior. The evaluation of transfer credit is based on course work, not degree granted or prior class level.
Individual department chairs are generally responsible for deciding which prior coursework will satisfy the requirements of a particular major. If admitted to Denison, students should coordinate with the registrar and department chairs to determine which requirements in a particular major have been satisfied and how to schedule the remaining courses.
Some majors require students to start early in their college career and are more difficult to complete for transfer students arriving later in their degree.
Students may register for classes by scheduling an appointment with Lisa Ashton, Registration Coordinator. Registration may be completed either by phone or in person. The Registration Coordinator may be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com or by calling 740-587-6659.
Denison is a residential college with a variety of housing options. All students are required to live on-campus unless they live within a 25 mile radius with a parent or guardian.
For specific questions concerning housing please contact Donna Davis at firstname.lastname@example.com or by calling 740-587-6272.
Submission of the SAT or ACT is optional. The quality of your academic performance and the rigor of courses selected at both high school and college are the most important facts considered by the Admission Committee. Independent of the admission process and solely for the purpose of the College's research, students who have taken the standardized tests must submit the official results of these tests upon enrolling.

Customer Reviews - CH
2008 Kalinda Malbec Mendoza
Review Date: 11-21-2011
Not sure what everyone else was drinking but this had zero fruit on the palate. Lots of green flavors, black olive, some cigar box on the nose and good acidity, but otherwise pretty closed up, even after a day. Tried with steak, mushrooms, onions which you'd think would coax some flavors out of a Malbec. Not bad just not seductive or delicious like others even in this price range.
Price: $9.99
2009 Rabl Steinhaus Riesling
Review Date: 11-16-2011
Like this even more than their GV. Super food-friendly, fruity but without the sugar. Tropical fruit & quince on the nose, tart apple on the palate, great acidity all the way through.
Price: $7.99
2009 Perazzeta Sara Rosso Toscano I.G.T.
Review Date: 10-31-2011
Fresh, fruity, easy to drink, with enough acidity and structure for food and a great value.
Price: $7.99
2009 Friedrich Becker Estate Pinot Noir
Review Date: 10-28-2011
Enjoyed this classic Pinot, earthy, mushroomy nose, juicy and spicy on the palate. Little timid on the finish, but very good food wine. Paired with braised pork.
Price: $18.99
2010 Tablas Creek Paso Robles Picpoul Blanc
Review Date: 10-15-2011
Gorgeous. Lemon, apple, mineral finish, good body. Not as high in acid as French examples of Picpoul, more like how what want unoaked Chardonnay to taste like but never get.
Price: $26.99
2009 Rabl Spiegel Gruner Veltliner
Review Date: 10-09-2011
Very good, even at twice the price. Gains some fruit after a day, lots of white pepper, acidity. Great house wine.
Price: $6.99
2008 Claus Preisinger Zweigelt
Review Date: 10-09-2011
Had high hopes after having last had the very good '05. Unfortunately not very interesting at all. Either I'm drinking this too young, or the '08 is really rather flat. No fruit, high acid, no mid palate, short finish. I'll leave this open for a day or two, but disappointing.
Price: $6.99
2009 Castillo de Monseran Garnacha Cariñena
Review Date: 10-02-2011
Rather delicious. Fruity, enjoyable, really good value.
Price: $6.99
2007 Chateau Ste. Michelle Columbia Valley Merlot
Review Date: 10-02-2011
Loved this, everything you want in a savory yet juicy steak wine. Great value. Reminded me of somewhere between Paso Zin and Crozes-Hermitage. $10.99. What?
Price: $9.99
2009 Perrin & Fils "Reserve" Côtes du Rhône
Review Date: 09-11-2011
Agree with other review, this is a very good wine at $9, fruity, spicy, delicious. Finishes dry but otherwise not distinguishable. Fantastic with herb roasted chicken and inexpensive enough to have around every day.
Price: $8.99
2008 Charles Smith "Chateau Smith" Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Review Date: 08-05-2011
This is mostly 'cigar box' on the palette, aka fake wood chip flavor. Somewhat green nose, signaling unripe fruit. Not a good value. Was hard to match with a steak, which should be a sin for any cab.
Price: $17.99
2004 Calvet-Thunevin "Les Dentelles" Côtes du Roussillon Villages
Review Date: 07-09-2011
Beautiful. Huge fruit yet spicy nose, all those cliches about earthiness. Not overpowering though, great acidity & finish. Unbelievable value at $15.
Price: $14.99
2008 Jean-Louis Denois "Les Oliviers" Syrah Vin de Pays D'Oc
Review Date: 02-17-2011
Wanted to like this, but it took a day to settle down and even then was just ok. At first very funky, vegetal, a little rubber, too young (slight hint of spritz) and off balance. On day two more fruit and more balanced. There's better, even at this price, look to Central CA for every day syrahs.
Price: $9.99
2008 Brancott Pinot Noir South Island
Review Date: 02-17-2011
Hard to beat at this price, nice everyday Pinot.
Price: $9.99
Black Maple Hill, Small Batch Bourbon (750ml) (1 bottle limit)
Review Date: 06-17-2010
Best with a little water, but very good.
Price: $35.99
|Limit of 1 per customer
Bulleit "Frontier" Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey (750ml)
Review Date: 06-17-2010
Smooth, some vanilla and oak, hint of pleasant sourness...doesn't need any water, but good with a little ice.
Price: $22.99
2001 Lopez de Heredia "Viña Cubillo" Crianza, Rioja
Review Date: 05-07-2010
Classic flavors of cedar, leather etc. Perfect with ham and other salty meaty foods. This is not fruity globby stuff, but classic food fare with good acidity, herbs and spice. Enjoy some old school crianza instead of the fake fruit stuff.
Price: $23.99
2007 Perrin & Fils Côtes du Rhône-Villages
Review Date: 07-20-2009
Sour cherry & spice...very good food wine.
Price: $14.99
2007 Casa Castillo Monastrell Jumilla
Review Date: 06-22-2009
Good acidity, some fruit and tannins, but not overly balanced.
Price: $8.99
2007 Josef Leitz Rüdesheimer Drachenstein "Dragonstone" Riesling
Review Date: 06-22-2009
Could have a little more acidity...nice fruit though. Not sure about the food pairing possibilities, but would make a great aperitif.
Price: $16.99

2007 Testarossa "Castello" Central Coast Chardonnay
Review Date: 06-20-2009
Surprising acidity for an oaked Chard. Very nice with food.
Price: $22.99
2008 Kalinda Mendocino Sauvignon Blanc
Review Date: 06-20-2009
Quaffable, but not memorable.
Price: $11.99
2008 Dashwood Sauvignon Blanc Marlborough
Review Date: 06-20-2009
Wow, 8.99, hope it stays at this price point. Compares very favorably to Kim Crawford '08 and Chasing Venus '07. Slightly lighter in weight, but great grapefruit aroma and taste. Better as a cocktail than with food maybe. Unless it's Sushi?
Price: $8.99
1997 Lopez de Heredia "Vina Tondonia" Crianza Rosado Rioja, Spain
Review Date: 06-20-2009
Very interesting wine. Starts off smelling like dessert wine, quince, sweetness. First sip is surprisingly dry. Develops great mineral and pear flavors, mile-long finish. Fantastic with Manchego. Seductive.
Price: $23.99
2006 Sanford "La Rinconada Vineyard" Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir
Review Date: 06-20-2009
Wine & Spirits hits it on the nail. Starts off with classic Pinot bouquet, little bit spicy on the palate. After 30 mins, great classic red and black fruit. With some more air loses the fruit of the Pinot and shows what has to be the added Syrah. More spice, minerals, barnyard. Fleshy and fuller than other Sanford Pinos.
Price: $39.99
2005 Principi di Butera Deliella Nero d'Avola
Review Date: 05-21-2009
Fruity with some wood on the nose. Delicious, easy to drink. Soft tannies, not a huge finish.
Price: $17.99
2006 McPrice Myers "L'Ange Rouge" Santa Barbara County Grenache
Review Date: 05-19-2009
If you can find it, buy it. This is extremely delicious, but hard to get. Big wine, but not over the top.
Price: $31.99
2007 Au Bon Climat Santa Barbara Chardonnay
Review Date: 05-19-2009
Maybe my favorite Chardonnay. Was served this at a wedding in SB and couldn't get enough. Has all the vanilla and cream you want from CA, with all the fruit and acid you expect from Burgundy. Well priced, great food wine, but weighty enough as a cocktail. House wine.
Price: $16.99
2005 Barrel 27 Central Coast Syrah
Review Date: 05-19-2009
Had this a few times with friends, everyone fell in love with it. All you want from a CA Syrah, earth, fruit, acid, creaminess, weight. Maybe better alone than with a meal, but pairs well with cheese, and people...
Price: $14.99
2006 Braunstein Zweigelt "Mitterjoch"
Review Date: 05-19-2009
I love this wine, spicy, fruity, delicious. My favorite with braised meat dishes or bbq. When is this coming back!?
Price: $14.99
2003 Chateau Ste Michelle "Indian Wells" Merlot Columbia Valley
Review Date: 05-19-2009
Delicious, good value. Great fruit, good finish, very fun to drink. And for the price, why not?
Price: $9.99
2008 Chasing Venus Sauvignon Blanc Marlborough, New Zealand
Review Date: 05-19-2009
Great NZ Sauv Blanc, with little more weight, which makes it great with food or on its own. Better than the Kim Crawford at the same price, but you won't find this one in many restaurants.
Price: $14.99
2002 Louise Brison Vintage Brut
Review Date: 05-19-2009
We had this for New Year's Eve, everyone absolutely adored it.
Price: $34.99
Domaine Chandon Blanc de Noirs Sparkling Wne
Review Date: 05-19-2009
Surprisingly good for CA and for the price. Fruity, yeasty nose. Prefer it to the Blanc De Blanc which is a little one sided. Great as an aperitif and as a breakfast cocktail with egg dishes etc.
Price: $9.99
2008 "Gruner" by Ebner Ebenauer, Gruner Veltliner (1L)
Review Date: 05-19-2009
Not bad at all, but also not terribly exciting. None of the classic spice and fruit - rather bland, quaffable white. I'd go for the Hugl or Berger instead for the same price.
Price: $10.99
2008 Hugl Gruner Veltliner (1L)
Review Date: 05-19-2009
Spicy, green apple goodness. Classic GruVe, on the nose and palate. Great value, similar to Berger.
Price: $11.99
2006 Patient Cottat Sauvignon Blanc
Review Date: 05-14-2009
Should be everyone's house white, perfect for any white wine food. Great acidity, not over the top on the fruit like the NZ SBs. Love it.
Price: $6.99
2006 Saint-Bris, Sauvignon, Domaine Anne & Arnauld Goisot
Review Date: 05-14-2009
This is a huge surprise and very unique. Sauv Blanc with flavors of quince and tangerine. Very distinct, very food friendly, but complex enough for sipping on its own. What a deal.
Price: $10.99
2007 Valle del Acate Poggio Bidini Nero d'Avola
Review Date: 05-14-2009
Fantastic and more complex than expected for an unoaked red.
Price: $12.99
Markus Altenburger Brut Rosé Sekt
Review Date: 05-14-2009
Beautiful wine in a great presentation. Little flat on the nose, but good fruit and mouthfeel.
Price: $11.99
2006 Weingut Allram Blauer Zweigelt 1L
Review Date: 05-14-2009
This is great tasting, uncomplicated wine at a great price. Spicy, fruity, some tannis, great acidity, great with food. Really good value and something different for the mid-week...also fun slightly chilled.
Price: $11.99

In 2012, ice cover in the Arctic Ocean reached the lowest level ever recorded by satellites over the last 30 years, according to NASA. As a result, the Arctic Ocean has expanded much more rapidly than climate models had projected. (In the image below, the yellow line shows the average minimum extent of the ice over the past 30 years, compared to 2012.)
Image by NASA
The warming waters and expanding ocean seems to be attracting some species of fish, and of course less ice means more opportunity for fishing.
In the past, when new patches of fish were discovered, they have been rapidly exploited, and sometimes overexploited. But in one of the most progressive fishery management moves ever, the North Pacific Fishery Management Council imposed a moratorium on commercial fishing in a 200,000 square mile zone within the expanding Arctic until sufficient information is available to develop a sound scientific basis for harvest.
A new study suggests that the Arctic will become less productive for several reasons.
- The newly ice-free waters are too deep for some commercially important species like arctic cod.
- Ocean acidification from carbon dioxide pollution will reduce the productivity of copepods, mollusks, and other shellmaking creatures, reducing the food supply for fishes we like to eat.
- Warming temperatures might increase the already intense stratification of the Arctic, where warmer water float on a layer of colder, denser, nutrient-rich water. This may prevent nutrients from the sea floor from reaching the surface and being ingested by plankton, at the base of the food chain.
These are all reasonable concerns, but there may be mitigating factors that could increase the productivity of the Arctic in a warmer world.
For example, deep water will be an obstacle to some species, but not necessarily to all, including some very important commercial species that live mid-way in the water column. Acidification will most likely harm some species in the Arctic food web, but they could be replaced by other species less affected by acidification.
The bottom line is that nobody can be too sure of what will happen to fish in the Arctic and Arctic Ocean productivity, but we can be pretty sure that if commercially important stocks do move into the expanded waters there, fishing fleets will follow.
The moratorium on commercial fishing imposed by the NPFMC is the right policy response to large scientific uncertainty. Hopefully, other nations will follow suit and adopt similar precautionary measures to prevent a rapid increase in fishing pressure before science can catch up.


text: A NY newspaper published a list of all local gun owners with addresses and map. The informaton was obtained through the freedom of information act. I wonder whether those who don't possess a gun will be the most disturbed or those that do. Not only do criminals have the addresses but also a map showing homes THAT DO NOT POSSESS A GUN. You think it might have the effect of a run to aquire a gun permit and gun by those that don't have one?

| "Years ago, my nutritionist was trying out this thing where we were wrapped in Ace bandages soaked in some sort of detox-to-make-you-thinner thing, and then put in ponchos. But we had to keep moving, so we walked in a circle while this boom box was playing. I've never laughed so hard in my life!"

Nissan has redesigned its flagship Maxima large sedan for 2016, which is good news since Maximas sold in 2015 really are 2014 models and sales have fallen as buyers anxiously await the new model. The best-seller in Nissan's lineup, the Altima, and the compact Sentra also are refreshed for 2016. The new "V-Motion" grille with chrome trim will be a consistent design element on redone models. In addition, several sport trim levels are added to the 2016 car lineup. Also, the automaker's advanced safety and multimedia and connectivity technology systems are available across a wider range of model trim levels. Siri Eyes Free is also being introduced in the lineup for 2016.
When you're less than best, you have three choices: accept average, improve, or bail out. With the launch of the 2016 Titan XD, Nissan has obviously selected the improvement route for its full-size pickup. Finally, the Titan is a real player with genuine capability, available diesel power, and a host of must-have technologies.
Comparatively speaking, the rest of Nissan's truck, SUV, and van lineup remains unchanged for 2016, save for a few tweaks to the availability of certain options, freshening of the color palette, and a few key upgrades, such as extra standard air bags on the full-size NV van. Perhaps most notable is the absence of the rugged Xterra, which bows out after a successful 15-year run.

Do you think he just ordered a Heath kit nuclear warhead since Obama took office and put it together with a soldering gun and pliers??
I don't like attacking past presidents for the sake of it. But lets have an honest tally of the number of times Bush, Carter and Clinton's names appear on this list. And really, Clinton's little trist in the WH didn't cost me a cent. Well, Kenneth Starr's $42million attempt to prosecute did, but that's money under the bridge now.

Just in case anyone was expecting a response to Sunir's diary entry, here's the deal:
- I've apologised to Sunir for some stuff, and he's apologised to me for some stuff. All apologies were accepted and everything is quite friendly.
- The Wiki pages are deleted because neither Sunir nor I want them there at the present time. We don't need another reason.
- Some of the assertions in Sunir's diary entry and on the notes that he put up after the Wiki entries were reinstated by "Reini" are factually incorrect. The details are not important.
My new month's resolutions are:
- I must not try to start a new project when in the middle of Release Hell(tm).
- I must not announce a project until there's more to see than a few blank pages.
End of story.

I feel a great disturbance in the Force.
This is a good idea, a kid version of the FX saber. Kids I suspect just want the ladder-up blade, and if this can competently deliver that experience with some hum and crash sounds, it'll work well on the market.
It will also be good for adults who want to hit each other with realistic looking lightsabers without worrying about damaging a $120 collectible.
I'll probably end up getting the kids a couple of these, if nothing else just so they'll quit asking to play with mine. The $35 price tag may actually cause the cheap plastic ones Hasbro currently markets to kids to lose favor with the kiddies.
