"Julius Caesar," which tells the story of a highly praised Roman general after he returns home after winning loads of battles in Spain, is one of playwright William Shakespeare's most famous plays.
In this play, a group of conspirators (people who plot and scheme bad things) plans to murder Caesar to prevent him from taking over all the land as a supreme ruler.
One of the most lasting ideas from this play relates to the "ides," or middle, of March.
In Act One, Scene One, a soothsayer (one with the supposed ability to see into the future) warns Caesar, "Beware the ides of March."
The soothsayer even repeats himself, but Caesar ignores him, calling him "a dreamer."
In Act Two, Scene Two, Calphurnia, Caesar's wife, tells Caesar she believes in these omens (predictions or warnings), saying:
"Caesar, I never stood on ceremonies
Yet now they fright me."
This essentially means, "I didn't believe in superstition before, but now I'm scared."
"With the Ancient Roman calendar the Ides of March fell in the middle of the month, and many religious holidays and festivals revolved around that time," explains Laurel Springs School's resident Shakespeare expert Lisa Bechtold, an English and Latin teacher. "Because the soothsayer in the play warns Caesar about that day in particular and being out in public, the fact that the omens and the bad dreams of Calphurnia came true on that exact date creates a lasting impression on the society, as that was the date of Caesar's assassination."
Caesar starts to believe all the bad things people have been telling him and, on the ides of March (March 15), at first refuses to go to meet other government officials at the Senate, saying his wife's visions have scared him too much. But, one of the conspirators who will become one of Caesar's murderers convinces him to go.
On the way, the soothsayer tries one more time to get Caesar to listen to his warning of danger.
Caesar says, feeling bold and fearless, "The ides of March are come."
The soothsayer replies, "Ay, Caesar; but not gone," as if to say, "The day's not over yet!"
It turns out the soothsayer and Caesar's wife are right in their forecasts, and Caesar gets murdered at the Senate by his colleagues and friends.
"'Julius Caesar' is an enduring drama as it addresses many of the issues that reoccur in a society both historically and in current events: political intrigue, power plays between factions, issues of patriotism and betrayal as well as friendship and loyalty," Bechtold says. "The play is based off of Ancient Roman history and our current forms of democracy can be linked to the conflicts and compromises made during this era."
Do you believe one should "beware the ides of March"?

How Stanford turned its season around
After a disappointing loss to the Northwestern Wildcats to begin the season, it looked as though the Stanford Cardinal simply didn't have the talent to compete in the powerful Pac-12 conference. Now, four weeks later, they look unbeatable
As it turns out, Northwestern is actually pretty good. Perhaps not world-beaters, but a legitimate Big Ten contender and certainly a better team than many gave them credit for when the season began. Stanford, on the other hand, has worked to right the ship.
How have they done it?
For starters, QB Kevin Hogan has been great. When not pressured he has shredded opposing defenses with a PFF passing grade of +8.9. Any QB is better when he has time, but Hogan's NFL caliber arm and pinpoint accuracy have been evident when able to step into his passes and drive the ball down the field. Saturday, against Arizona, Hogan went 17 of 19 for 217 yards, two touchdowns and zero interceptions. With no pressure, he was 12 of 13 for 153 yards and two touchdowns. It's also not enough to simply send more guys at him as he's preformed above average against the blitz (+1.7). Hogan was 7 of 8 for 123 yards, two touchdowns and zero interceptions when Arizona sent extra attackers.
The power run game, led by OG Joshua Garnett (+18.1) and FB Daniel Marx (+13.9), has forced opposing defenses to play the Cardinal tight, helping Hogan post a +3.8 passer grade over the middle of the field and +3.9 down the sidelines.
As usual, Stanford boasts an impressive group of tight ends. None more impressive than veteran pass catcher Austin Hooper who owns the center of the field bringing in 10-13 passes for 150 yards when targeted over the middle. When the Cardinal run the ball to the left, opposing defenses have little chance of getting them off the field. As a team, they post a commanding +17.1 when running behind Garnett. If forced to run behind center Graham Shuler or left tackle Kyle Murphy positive results still routinely follow, as they post a +9.2 and +5.7 respectively. Marx, who will likely excel in a similar role at the NFL level, grades as an elite blocker leading runners to a +13.2 when they follow him through the hole.
If the Cardinal do have a weakness, it likely lies in the depth of their defense. After graduating nine starters from last season and suffering some unfortunate injuries already this season, many of the Stanford defenders are playing on little to no rest. With unproven backups behind them, defensive standouts like DL Solomon Thomas (+12.5), LB Peter Kalambayi (+10.1), and LB Blake Martinez (+9.9) are playing nearly every snap. Luckily for them the Cardinal offense rarely turns the ball over and their ground-and-pound style of play is shortening games in the normally up-tempo Pac-12, keeping the opposing offense off the field.
As it stands now, Stanford looks destined to square off against Utah in the Pac-12 championship game at Levi Stadium. For many that may come as a surprise considering their opening day loss. However, this Stanford team bears little resemblance to the team we saw that day. These are the real Cardinal – the team Coach Shaw crafted to compete in a league that thinks old-fashioned football can't win in today's up-tempo world. The Stanford Cardinal look ready to teach them all a difficult lesson.

Is the system powering up? Does it make the usual sounds?
Have you tried a different monitor?
It could be the RAM.

It is not overclocked and it powers up but just no video on the screen.

Check the signal and power cables to the Monitor.
If the monitor light is coming then the power is OK. Remove the cables and insert them firmly. Tighten the two screws holding the VGA plugs.

Is there any way you can attach the monitor to another system to rule out that it`s not bad. They do seem to go whenever they want.
How old is it ?
|My System Specs
|01 Nov 2011
Could just be the card (or even something else) has become unseated from the board. Open up the case and make sure it's nothing simple like that.
Also, to clarify, is it that the monitor is showing a signal but there is simply no picture, or is that the monitor isn't even registering a signal coming to it? Dell monitors have the convenient light that turns from orange to green when it senses a signal, but I'm not sure if yours has something like that.
|My System Specs
|01 Nov 2011
To check whether the monitor is working or not, the OP can try the menu button on the monitor.
The menu will appear on a working monitor whether it is getting signal from the system or not.

My latest feeling is the mobo has died. Now I am getting a yellow flashing light from the mobo. Going to change the board and see what happens.

Top Student in the Education Perfect Maths Championships
Winning the Education Perfect Mathematics Championships is an experience that will never cease to fade. Realising I had placed 1st was an overwhelming feeling of joy, relief, and achievement. Though it did prove a challenge, every moment was well worth it and the competition remained a tough battle until the last second.
However, this feat would not have been accomplished without the amazing support I have received. I would firstly like to thank the entire Education Perfect team for all the dedication, guidance and hard work they put into all they do so that students like me are able to participate in these events. This opportunity to compete against over 30,000 competitors from 23 countries around the world is one I'm very fortunate to have.
I would also like to thank my peers and teachers at Paraparaumu College, including my amazing principal Mr. Fountain for all the support they have given me, which has contributed to this grand success. Furthermore, all those who have followed my progress in the entirety of the competition, in addition to my wonderful parents who have been a strong push of motivation for me.
In conclusion, this competition has also given me much knowledge which I can now apply to my studies. I have also gained the skills of being able to work better under pressure and further develop my ability of perseverance. Once again, it was an unforgettable event that provides students from around the world with the chance to set goals and achieve them. I am looking forward to seeing the incredible potential of future champions in the years coming.

Tom's Hardware Review and Overclock Intel Core i7 7700K
Chief motherboard reviewer Thomas Soderstrom at Tom's Hardware has dispensed with all the secrecy and hoodoo surrounding Intel's eagerly awaited Kaby Family of processors, and gone ahead and published a first review. The review itself centers on the new top-end model, the Core i7 7700K a quad core chip that runs at base frequency of 4.2GHz, boosting to 4.5GHz. Compared to the previous gen Skylake chips, Thomas finds that there is a modest boost in performance, however in the areas of power consumption and thermals it's a little disappointing.
"Intel's new Kaby Lake CPU delivers on the clock speeds the company promised, but the power consumption and thermal characteristics were disappointing based on a leaked sample of the new chip we received and tested weeks ahead of its official launch."
In terms of CPU core clocks, it's easy to see that Kaby Lake models do indeed use higher clocks compared to Skylake. Each tier of the product line generally gains 200-300MHz on the newer Kaby Lake processors. However, despite these changes Thomas found little difference in terms of how the board approached power delivery.
"Intel didn't change the core micro architecture between Skylake and Kaby Lake, and our motherboard didn't even read a voltage reduction for the Core i7-7700K, compared to the Core i7-6700K. Our motherboard set the Core i7-7700K to 1.30V at its 4.50 GHz max turbo, whereupon it behaved exactly the way we'd expect our Core i7-6700K to act when overclocked to 4.50 GHz at 1.30V."
Looking at power draw, the newer 7th generation chips failed to deliver a reduction. What Thomas observed was an increase in the watts consumed, jumping from 133 W on Skylake, to 141 W with Kaby Lake. Idle power draw did see reduction of 37 W, to 24 W.
"For true performance enthusiasts, the real news is that Intel's new mainstream-socket enthusiast CPU will reach new overclocking heights. Unfortunately, getting its extra heat out of the core was quite a challenge, as even stepping up from Noctua's NH-U12S to its NH-D14 saved a mere 3°C. … Still, the fact that it reached 4.8 GHz without sub-ambient cooling is encouraging."
The article arrives with a few caveats of course. Firstly it's fair to say the GIGABYTE Z170X-Ultra motherboard, while sporting a revised BIOS that makes it compatible with Kaby Lake, it will almost certainly not be fully optimized for the new platform. Also, it's very possible that we will see different behavior with the new Z270 chipset boards when they arrive.

Makes me angry tbh, they best get sanctioned for that, because otherwise...there is no point following the NDA tbh!
I don't even talk about the chip, let alone publish a review of it a month early!

(UPI) -- Schoolchildren aged 11 to 16 are no longer allowed to smoke at Elmete Central School in Roundhay, Leeds, after the school was criticized for permitting pupils to puff cigarettes.
Students had their cigarettes confiscated at the beginning of the day but then would get them returned during breaks and lunchtimes so they could smoke. The school deals with youths who have educational and behavioral issues and it is believed that permitting smoking on the premises was an attempt to stop students from going truant.
"We take this issue very seriously and as soon as it was brought to our attention, we spoke to the school and issued an instruction that it must stop immediately," said Paul Brennan, the deputy director for children's services. "We are confident this practice has now ceased." He added:
According to the school's website: "All staff, including support staff work to remove barriers to learning, and support the pastoral needs of learners.""The recently-appointed headteacher has agreed to review any such practices, and to make sure this does not happen in the future we will conduct unannounced visits by local authority staff. We have a strict no-smoking policy in all of our schools and encourage them to promote healthy lifestyles to all pupils."
The chief executive of UK anti-smoking health charity ASH, Deborah Arnott, said: "Allowing children to smoke at school is wrong in so many ways. It is illegal to sell tobacco to young people under the age of 18 precisely because tobacco is so hazardous to health and wellbeing. It is totally inappropriate and unethical to allow children to smoke in a school environment. The school wouldn't allow children to drink."

THE rugby season is rocketing along and before you know it the Wallabies' first Test of the year will be upon us.
Ewen McKenzie's men face an intriguing three-match battle against France, who finished third in the Six Nations and knocked over last year's Wallabies' conquerors England.
The Wallabies ended 2013 on a high with four-straight wins to finish their Spring Tour, and they'll be looking to bring that momentum into this year.
While the key players from that tour will no doubt play a big role against France, a host of big names were unavailable for action due to injury or form.
With the help of Fox Sports Stats we take a look at the comeback kings looking to force their way back into the Wallabies set-up, and how they have started their 2014 seasons.
Kurtley Beale
Waratahs star Beale looks a certainty for a Wallabies recall, the only question is: where?
Beale has played all 39 of his Tests at fullback or flyhalf (or off the bench) but has been in superb form at inside-centre since returning to NSW.
He is the joint leader in the competition - alongside Quade Cooper - for try assists (5), while he leads the Tahs for linebreak assists (4), and is second for linebreaks (4), and ball carries (34).
Is it enough to earn a shot at the Wallabies' No.12 jersey in the first Test against France?
Jesse Mogg
Israel Folau has a mortgage on the fullback jersey for the Wallabies, but who is second in line?
Brumbies Mogg star has been in blistering form since his opening-round shocker against the Reds, scoring four tries in his opening five games.
Mogg, who made his Test debut against the British and Irish Lions before his 2013 campaign was cut short by a shoulder injury, leads the Brumbies for tackle busts (15), linebreaks (5), and run metres (374m).
He is also ninth overall in Super Rugby for kick metres (1319), with Reds halfback Will Genia (1481) and Waratahs flyhalf Bernard Foley (1440) the only Aussies with a bigger boot this season.
Scott Higginbotham
The Rebels skipper hasn't worn Wallaby gold since 2012, with a shoulder injury ruining his hopes of tackling the British and Irish Lions and then sidelining him for the remainder of last year.
Higginbotham has wasted little time in reminding us of his worth this season. He is the Rebels' leading try-scorer this season with two, and has now scored eight five-pointers in 18 games for the club.
The big No.8 has made the second most ball carries (31) for Melbourne, the equal most linebreaks (3) and is equal third for tackle busts (8).
He is averaging more carries (7.8) and run metres (45m) this season than last (6.9 runs for 41m) and has been the Rebels' go-to man at lineout time with a team high 13 wins.
Matt Hodgson
He is the wrong side of 30 and played the last of his six Tests three seasons ago, but the veteran Force skipper is playing at a standard that deserves to be recognised.
The no-nonsense flanker has started the season in typically hard-working fashion to be the leading Australian tackler in Super Rugby (88) and third overall.
He has also proved a threat with ball in hand, crossing the stripe three times to be the Force's leading try-scorer.
With David Pocock out for the year and Liam Gill recently sidelined, Hodgson looms as a handy back-up option for first-choice No.7 Michael Hooper.
Wycliff Palu
The veteran No.8 started every Test against the Lions last year but missed the rest of the Wallabies' 2013 campaign after undergoing knee surgery.
He hasn't missed a beat since returning for duty with the Waratahs, for whom he has been one of the leading lights in a power-packed start to 2014.
He ranks second for the Tahs in offloads (10), and ball carries (34), third for tackles made (29), and seventh for run metres (176m).
If he stays injury free, and the Tahs coaching staff are doing their best to 'manage' him, Palu is surely a certainty for a Wallabies recall to earn his 50th Test cap.
Lachie Turner
The former Waratahs flyer has looked a new man since heading north to Queensland, putting two injury-plagued seasons quickly behind him with a hot start for the Reds.
He scored a try in each of his first two games for his new club, and has made the second most linebreaks (three), and third most tackle busts (7) and run metres (178m) for the Reds so far this season.
If he continues this strong form it might be enough to convince his former coach at the Tahs, Wallabies boss Ewen McKenzie, to add to his 15 Test caps.
Fellow Queensland flyer Rod Davies has also impressed, leading the Reds in linebreaks (four) as well as being second for run metres (187m) and crossing for one try.

Alliance sets its price for taking Justice ministry
Five conditions must be met before they will join Executive
The Alliance Party has told Stormont's leaders they must deliver a five-point wish list if they want it to re-take the Executive's contentious Justice ministry.
However, writing for the Belfast Telegraph, former Alliance deputy leader Seamus Close said taking the post would be "a huge mistake and a fundamental error of judgment where the electorate would see them as patsys of the DUP and Sinn Fein".
Yesterday, Alliance leader David Ford presented his demands to the DUP and Sinn Fein during talks on the formation of a new coalition administration.
"We will wait to see what response we receive and what discussions there might be," he said.
The party's decision on whether to accept the DUP/Sinn Fein offer to take the post it has filled since 2010 has become key to the viability of the Executive.
If the cross-community party declines, Stormont will be facing another crisis, just weeks after the Assembly election, as neither the DUP nor Sinn Fein are likely to allow the other to assume the politically sensitive portfolio.
The mutual veto has been overcome in past years by Alliance taking the job.
Mr Ford and party colleagues have drawn up a three-page document for DUP First Minister Arlene Foster and Sinn Fein Deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness and are awaiting responses.
While the DUP and Sinn Fein have until next Wednesday to form a new administration, Alliance wants to see progress before Thursday evening, when its ruling council is due to meet.
If Alliance was to take the ministry, it would only remain in the post if certain timelines for delivery of its requests are met by the main parties.
"What we will be putting forward will require targets to be reached and commitments to be made," said Mr Ford.
"If delivery is not made, then an Alliance minister will not remain in post, if there is an Alliance minister in post at all."
Unlike most ministerial jobs, the Justice Minister can only be appointed with the backing of both a majority of nationalist and unionist MLAs.
Mrs Foster has already made clear her party would not consent to Sinn Fein taking the post.
Given the DUP leader's stance, her republican partners in government are highly unlikely to support a DUP incumbent.
But former Lagan Valley MLA and the party's former deputy Seamus Close told the Belfast Telegraph: "Arlene's comment was effectively turning up the heat on Alliance. This is undisguised political blackmail.
"For the Alliance Party to succumb to this blatant pressure would be a huge mistake and a fundamental error of judgment where the electorate would see them as patsys of the DUP and, presumably, Sinn Fein."
If Alliance follows the lead already taken by the Ulster Unionists and refuses to join the new administration, then the two main parties would have to find another agreed minister.
While the SDLP remains in negotiations to form an Executive, it is unlikely both the DUP and Sinn Fein would support the nationalist party taking on justice.
In that context, the Green Party, which has two seats, has been mooted as an alternative.
Earlier on Tuesday, Green party leader Steven Agnew did not rule himself out as a potential minister. However, he said significant changes would be required on the proposed DUP/Sinn Fein Programme for Government, with more emphasis on eco-friendly investment policies and integrated education, before he could contemplate joining the Stormont Executive.
"I saw parties in the last mandate have positions in government but no positions of power," Mr Agnew said when asked if he would consider taking the post if offered.
"I would go in to assess whether or not I would have any power or any say in decision-making, and it would be on that basis I would make any decision."

We stayed in a standard studio cottage for 2 nights. Over the years we have stayed in cottages 4-5 times and have been happy. This time the #118 cottage was not up to par. It is in desperate need of repairs. There was a leak and hole in the ceiling. Drawers didn't close properly. Wall coverings were peeling. There was hole in the wall behind the bathroom door that didn't line up with where the door knob would have hit. The beds were horrible and uncomfortable and need updating. Linens were old and thin and had trouble staying on the mattress. The outside deck was in dire need of sanding and new stain. Curtains over the main french doors were barely hanging and didn't cover properly. The whole feeling was just grungy.
I gave 3 stars instead of 2 because the complex itself is cute, but, some of the older cottages definitely need improvement.

Actors Ajith and Vijay did star together in a few films quite early in their respective careers in the mid-nineties. Afterwards, as their popularity spread and fan-base increased immensely, the two stars decided not to star together in a(ny) film. Their decision is not dissimilar to the one taken by stalwarts Kamal Haasan and superstar Rajinikanth who starred together in many films till the mid-eighties and then started treading their own paths.
Director Selvaraghavan, whose latest directorial venture Mayakkan Enna has been making waves at the box-office even as it has evoked mixed responses from the print and television media, claims that he is in possession of a 'perfect script' which would suit Ajith and Vijay if they decide to come together on-screen again.
In a free-wheeling chat, Selvaa said, "I have been getting quite a lot of appreciation for Mayakkam Enna. I have always tried consciously to stay off the oft-beaten track and make films differently. Contrary to what is reported in the press from time to time, I don't have any misunderstanding with Yuvan and would soon be joining him in one of my upcoming film.
"As far as me directing Ajith and Vijay, instead of making films separately starring these two stars, I have a perfect script which would suit the style and tenacity of both these stars. I don't know when this project would start and whether both of them would agree to it. My next film would be Irandaam Ulagam staring Aarya and Anushka in the lead. I also have two more scripts which would be edge-of-the-seat thrillers.
"I might start work on the sequel to Aayirathil Oruvan some time next year after I complete Irandaam Ulagam," Selvaa concluded.

Haines police chief says department is understaffed
At a public safety commission meeting this month, Haines Police Chief Heath Scott presented, in his words, a dilemma: the police department is not adequately staffed. Overtime and standby hours have helped put the department about $30,000 over budget for the first half of the current fiscal year.
Chief Scott says the police department's budget was not the right size to begin with. For the past six months, the department has been between $2,000 and $8,000 over budget.
"One of the problems when you look at this budget that Haines has experienced is a high rate of turnover, we haven't held four officers on our rolls for an extended period of time," Scott said. "It's very hard to budget when you don't see that."
Scott has been on the job about six months. The three officers are also fairly new. Chris Brown has been in Haines about a year, Brayton Long has been on the force for a little over a year, and Sgt. Josh Dryden for close to three years.
Interim Borough Manager Brad Ryan responded to the public safety commission's questions about why the police are significantly over budget.
"I think the short answer is it's overtime and standby time," Ryan said. "The longer answer is, I asked the question the other day in a staff meeting — when is the last time we carried four officers? And nobody could really come up with when we carried four officers for a long time."
At a finance committee meeting the following day, Assembly member Margaret Friedenauer asked why the police budget issues weren't brought to the assembly's attention sooner. Scott said he talked to former manager Bill Seward about it, but Scott thought the over-spending might die down.
"It was understood at the management level what was happening," Scott said. "We thought things would settle down into November and December and they did not settle down."
Assemblyman Ron Jackson, who is on the finance committee, said it seems that creating the budget at a time when the police department was in flux led to the current imbalance.
The finance committee decided to recommend the assembly approve a $60,000 budget amendment. That would cover the current $30,000 imbalance and the next six months, if the overspending trend continues.
But the budget amendment, if it's passed, doesn't take care of the bigger issue: the police department is stretched too thin, according to Scott.
He has been thinking about alternative staffing plans, which he presented to the public safety commission. One option is to increase the number of standby hours budgeted. Or, the borough could hire another officer.
Scott says in the current staffing set up, there is little overlap between officers. He says less overlap means less safety, for both the officers and the community.
"It's always easier when you've got a second guy," Scott said. "The other thing that's bad is fighting at night with no light against three guys. Getting stabbed, when you're by yourself. It stinks…and I don't like telling those stories. I hope you know we're asking for what we need, not what we want."
The officers and their family members rallied behind Scott at both the finance and public safety meetings. Kit Brown said she worries about her husband, Officer Chris Brown's safety.
"This summer when we had Beer Fest and bike races and that all that stuff and we were down officers, it was hell on earth," Brown said. "To try to take care of our children, make sure that he was taken care of mentally, that he got his rest. It's scary 'cause you're worried, are they going to be where they're supposed to be? Is there anybody that's got his back?"
Public safety commission chair Jim Stanford said he wants to find a way to give the Haines police better work-life balance.
"I think we as a community need to take a long look at keeping our officers that we have, making them feel safe and also, when they're off, I'd like them to be off," Stanford said.
The police are also now filling in the gap left by Haines' vacant trooper post. Alaska State Troopers may eliminate the position permanently depending on budget cuts. At a meeting Monday, the public safety commission will talk more about out-of-townsite law enforcement and police staffing limitations.

Yeah, go wear your bear costume and go live in the woods! lol

In Anchorage, we are going through a similar puzzle. How to fund the level of police officers that the public safety planners have hoped to utilize. Because of that our streets are not getting plowed on a regular basis, and has forced folks to think in terms of a finite budget. There are now so many accidents in the municipality, that many repair shops won't service your vehicle unless you already have a claim open with attached funds available.
This is the largest muni in Alaska. In Haines, where the economy is not quite so robust, it may be useful to identify where your citizenry will accept the sacrifices.
It is impossible to fund your police, roads, emergency services, and schools on such a challenged economy.

And you call Chief Scott a diva???
DIVA definition- is a celebrated female singer; a woman of outstanding talent in the world of opera, and by extension in theatre, cinema and popular music.
Wow…Chief! I had no idea..you should perform at the Chilkat Center sometime.
And he took the blotter away(please bring it back) not a report.
Joe if your going to post your goofy nonsense then have someone proof it first.
January 29, 2017 at 10:43 am
While you live your safe little life police officers are out doing the things your to afraid or disgusted to do…your ignorant remarks are disrespectful and based on your opinion (you dress up in a bear costume and roller skate around town)
I spoke to an officer before I wrote this reply just to see if he had a comment.
His comment was that you were silly and clownish and nobody at the P.D. takes you seriously and that he wouldn't waste time on responding. Well I didnt listen and am wasting my time.
January 29, 2017 at 10:38 am
Well Joe let me enlighten you on the dangerous events law enforcement face every day. You have no clue what the heck your talking about and just because you can type out some BS on a computer doesnt mean you should.
Every domestic dispute they go too is dangerous, every traffic stop is dangerous, every time they go into a empty building looking for someone…its dangerous. Few years ago our police officers and troopers apprehended a man wanted for murder…HOLY CRAP…this community is amazing but there are bad, evil people here just like anywhere else.
January 29, 2017 at 12:06 am
I absolutely agree with Heath. Haines has such poor management of funding, or should I say Alaska has poor management in general. These are hard times for cops with the media and corruption. I would be frightened myself if my team was so understaffed. Meanwhile the local Museum complains that they don't get enough funding, who is the public more dependent on really? Is our safety really not a bigger priority?
January 27, 2017 at 8:13 pm
By the way, the state of Alaska now has a three billion dollar operating deficit because Republicans were in charge and decided to give oil money back to oil companies. So for the Haines police to crybaby for money is a bit disingenuous. Everyone wants more. We had plenty, but the rich were jealous. They had the power and have used it to enrich themselves. Ironic as they were loaded to begin with. The storm comes. Wish the entitled divas like Chief Scott would realize it but I doubt it.
January 27, 2017 at 7:57 pm
Cmon police buck up. What, is the bike race full of heroin addicts now? I doubt it. When was the last time the police had a dangerous event in Haines? We arent allowed to know because Heith Scott, new chief, took away the police report after getting the maximum salary first day. My suggestion would be stop being greedy and be grateful for your Cush job with benefits.
January 27, 2017 at 6:01 pm
What, is there a bunch of heroin addicts doing the bike race now? Cmon police. Buck up. The state has gone broke (Thanks to Republicans btw). I have a lot of respect for police because they do a tough job most of us want nothing to do with but hello, this is Haines. When was the last time there was a dangerous event for law enforcement? My suggestion is stop being greedy and be grateful for your Cush job with benefits.

We all know the importance of brushing our teeth and maintaining good oral hygiene. It is so important we often feel guilty if we neglect to floss; a little "pasty" if we forget to brush. We remind our children to brush before bed and we do it at least twice a day. We spend a lot of time and thought regarding the health of our teeth. But what if all this good energy is helping our teeth but harming our overall health?
To understand how this is possible, we first need to look at the ingredients in toothpaste. Unfortunately, to get the complete list you will need to step across the border or call a friend or relative living in the US because, in Canada, toothpaste companies don't have to inform us of all the ingredients.
Next, we need to understand the possible effects the ingredients can have on our health so we can make informed choices. We can start by looking at some common toothpaste ingredients: sodium monofluorophosphate, sodium lauryl sulfate, parabens, fcd blue #1, and cd yellow #10.
What's in There?
Sodium monofluorophosphate, also known as fluoride, has a long list of possible health concerns. The chronic ingestion of fluoride can cause skeletal fluorosis, a crippling bone disease in which the bones are severely weakened. Some researchers are even examining fluoride accumulation in osteoporosis sufferers to see if there is a possible link.
The potential risks associated with sodium monoflorophosphate are apparently so great that the US Food and Drug Administration requires the following warning be placed on products containing fluoride: "If more then the amount used for brushing is accidentally swallowed get medical help or contact poison control right away. Keep away from children under six years old."
Sodium lauryl sulfate can accumulate in eye tissue and some believe it is linked to cataracts. It has also been found to accumulate in the brain and liver as well as other tissue.
Parabens are chemical preservatives that can exert estrogenic activity on breast cells and are believed to be linked to breast cancer.
Synthetic colours, like fcd blue #1 and cd yellow #10, may produce hyperactivity or worsen behavioural problems in children. Long-term use of some dyes is also believed to cause or aggravate allergies, asthma, hives, and thyroid tumours.
It is tempting to assume the risks don't apply if you never swallow your toothpaste, but according to the Physician's Desk Reference Manual (Thomson Healthcare Inc, 2003), "Oral absorption can be up to 90-percent effective because the blood capillaries are very close to the surface in the inside of your mouth." So, the ingredients in your toothpaste can end up in your blood stream whether you swallow it or not.
Since we still need to brush our teeth, what do we do? Luckily there are companies that use high-quality, safe ingredients, including:
- calcium carbonate-a natural mineral used to gently clean teeth
- baking soda-a gentle abrasive that leaves your teeth feeling smooth after you brush
- silica-a mild abrasive that helps remove plaque
- stevia-a natural herbal sweetener without the harmful effects of artificial alternatives
- xylitol-an important ingredient because it is believed to reduce decay causing bacteria and enhances remineralization
- tea tree and neen-both contain antibacterial properties which help prevent tooth decay and gum disease.
Now that you are equipped with your lists of ingredients, you will be better able to make educated choices about the toothpaste you use. Start by examining the ingredients list of your favourite toothpaste and consider some natural alternatives. Your body will appreciate it.
Other tips to maintain healthy teeth include replacing your toothbrush regularly and asking your dentist to demonstrate the proper techniques to brush and floss. You can also treat your teeth by occasionally brushing with acidophilus, a form of good bacteria some believe helps prevent cavities.
Your teeth are important; they are the first step in achieving good digestion. The break down of food begins in the mouth. The more we chew, the better the cell walls get broken down, preparing the food for the digestive system and helping the body to receive all the food's nutrients. With education and informed choices, there need not be a conflict between oral health and overall health.

I haven't been active on this forum since 2004, but I would check it out every couple of months or so. I always noticed this particular thread being on the front page, but was never particularly interested in checking it out... until today. I just noticed that it was actually I who started the thread back in 2004. It's oddly eerie to read my old posts. It's hard to believe I had so little regard for the English language back then.
Anyways, to keep it more on topic -
Marriage Fruit
- The ability to do and say exactly what your wife wants you to, so you avoid sleeping on the couch.
+ You always get laid.
+ Steak dinners and good lasagna.
+ You're a bitch.

I mentioned in the chapter 607 that it would be interesting if the sea devils who created the devil fruits, created devil fruits that have water related powers that are reserved for themselves. i personally, and i think Sanji would too, see Nami eating a sea devil fruit that is a fish zoan. as a result, one of her three forms would be a mermaid!
Although, personally if i was a character in One Piece i would eat one of those sea devil fruits and eat the shark shark fruit: model White. I think it would be interesting to be a great white shark! i would also be a "D," so if they could eat more than one devil fruit, i would keep eating sea devil fruits. i would then eat two models of the whale whale fruit! both Humpback and orca!
Oh yeah, if a regular devil fruit could bring give you a unique power and take away your ability to swim, but sea devil fruits would give you a water related power and take away your ability to walk on dry land.

So if Luffy is a Paramecia user, and Ace was a Logia user, it would make sense that Sabo was a Zoan! i think it would be interesting if Sabo was a bird of some kind for the plot line that he is truly free like a bird out of his cage.

Fun thread, so i thought i would try to resurrect it.
Devil Fruit name: molecule molecule Fruit ( Could have a better name, but i guess for now should suffice).
Type: Paramecia
Ability: Can tamper with Molecular structure/arrangement of user's body or other things.
- Can Strengthen user's body. For example making the bones stronger by increasing the calcium level in them. ( Something like Tekkai)
- Can weaken Objects or people it touches. It does this by breaking the molecular bonds of the objects. For example it can Rot/destroy wooden parts of a ship by touching it or Rot an enemy's bone by punching it. It is extremely hard to use against people with strong haki though as they can defend against it. Some Objects are much harder to manipulate as well ( it will be much easier to destroy a wood than diamond for instance with this ability).
Pros/Uses when Mastered fully:
- Can easily counter many elements. For example it can defend against the ice Ice fruit by melting it, can walk on water by freezing it, Can manipulate air pressure ( something like Kuma's ability or naruto's rasengan), ... .
- Can strengthen/increase the user's power by a lot( Something Like Gai/Lee's gate opening or Luffy's gear 2).
- Can rejuvenate the body and heal damages. A much weaker ( and much more dangerous to use) version of Marco's ability.
-Completely useless at the hands of a regular person. It requires years of practice to use the abilities effectively.
-It requires a huge amount of stamina and Haki to use.
-usage will decrease life span.
-After a long battle it can make the user vulnerable to counter attacks as it has adverse effects ( Something like how Luffy was after fighting Cp9)
-True double edge ability. Strong power but deadly side effects.
-Weak against strong haki users.

I intended to be one of the strongest Paramecia ( On par to Logia and Mythical Zoan) but hoped to make it at least a bit balanced by giving it huge drawbacks as well.

Since the end Apartheid in 1994, Cape Town became and remains one of the most popular tourist cities in the world. The city is famed for its natural beauty, a distinctively relaxed cosmopolitan milieu, and the storied role it played in the decades-long struggle against Apartheid. Sporting several universities within its metropolitan boundaries, the Global Seminar offers an ideal environment for students to combine a deep acquaintance with South African history with a well-structured sojourn into the cultural life of a sophisticated African city.
Cape Town played a distinctive role in both South African history and in the social movements that emerged to oppose racial domination. Evidence of ambivalent relations between different racial and ethnic communities is everywhere present in the city today, two decades after Apartheid ended in 1994. On the other hand, post-Apartheid policies have indeed steadily chipped away at the legacies of the past, replacing the divisive core of Apartheid with a communal ethos that heralds a broad, inclusive nationalism. The Global Seminar therefore presents the city as a living embodiment and repository of post-Apartheid South Africa.
Ivan Evans is a professor in the Department of Sociology at UC San Diego and provost of Eleanor Roosevelt College College. He is a native South African and graduate of University of the Western Cape, as well as University of Wisconsin-Madison. His areas of specialization include African studies, with special emphasis on South Africa, race and ethnicity, and social movements. He received the Eleanor Roosevelt College teaching award two years in a row.

House Panel Grills FDA On Salmonella Probe
Congress wants to know who is to blame for the lag time between the onset of the latest salmonella outbreak and the identification of the suspected peppers. Some House members say the FDA was slow. The agency says it was a very complicated outbreak.
DEBORAH AMOS, Host:
People are still getting sick in a salmonella outbreak that began at the end of May, though the epidemic has slowed considerably. In two committee hearings this week, members of Congress have been trying to figure out why it's taking so long to stop it. NPR's Joanne Silberner has more.
JOANNE SILBERNER: Government officials initially blamed tomatoes for the outbreak, which has so far sickened at least 1,300 people. This week, official sourced the bacteria to Serrano and jalapeño peppers from Mexico.
At yesterday's hearing Congressman John Dingell said he thought the Food and Drug Administration could have reached a conclusion much more quickly.
JOHN DINGELL: While the FDA was ultimately able to trace commodities associated with this outbreak, the process was slow and cumbersome. What should have taken hours or days has taken months or more.
SILBERNER: Other congress members complained about a lack of communication between federal and state agencies and a failure to tap industry for help. but FDA food czar David Atchison testified that the challenge may be the bacterium itself.
DAVID ATCHISON: There's no question that the Salmonella St. Paul outbreak investigation has been one of the most complex in recent memory.
SILBERNER: It can take as much as 16 days before someone who's eaten a contaminated food gets sick and the bacterium is identified. Lonnie King of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention pointed out another problem.
LONNIE KING: People have difficulty remembering exactly what foods they ate.
SILBERNER: The culprit food is likely not to be around to be tested. It may have been mixed with other foods like tomatoes and peppers. Vegetables don't go directly from the field to the store, and records aren't always computerized.
While the FDA's Atchison admitted his agency could use more resources, he says the system didn't fail.
ATCHISON: It is what it is, and it worked, it was just slow.
SILBERNER: Meanwhile, the FDA is saying no Salmonella St. Paul has been found on fresh tomatoes. They're okay. Raw Serrano and jalapeño peppers from Mexico are not. Joanne Silberner, NPR News, Washington.

El Nacional's spirited fightback fails to keep them in the Copa Libertadores
Nacional 3 – El Nacional 3 (Agg. 8-3) (Copa Libertadores, February 5, 2009) Nacional raced into a 3-nil lead, Jorge Nunez scored twice in six minutes, before Nunez set up Hebert Arriola's header for a third. New El Nacional coach Juan Carlos Burbano sent in Erick de Jesus after half an hour and the team sprang to life. Marwin Pita scored two minutes later in a goalmouth scramble, Jorge Ladines three minutes after that, and Edmundo Zura equalised with a deflected shot that dribbled in two minutes before the break.

Question: My company is getting ready to rebuild its website and we think that getting feedback from the whole team is the best way to get a great website. Is that true?
Answer? No. Absolutely false, 98% of the time. Choose a single point of contact to be responsible for the website redesign. Someone with the skill set to bring a great project to fruition and someone who can filter the team's feedback and make the final decisions. "Design by Committee" is the biggest delay to projects and most of the time it results in a horrible outcome. If the whole management team needs to be involved, choose a decision maker to filter the "great ideas" and feedback from the Accounting Manager's wife.
Here's a great video to show you how a project typically goes when a company involves the whole team…most of whom don't belong making decisions. Let's see what happens when a corporation tries to design a stop sign!

Things you might not have known about volleyball or cared about until the Washington Huskies got deep in their run toward the Final Four, which starts today...
Things you might not have known about volleyball or cared about until the Washington Huskies got deep in their run toward the Final Four, which starts today:
1. A team no longer has to be serving to score. The new scoring system is called "rally scoring." A college match is best-of-five games. All games are to 30 points, except for the fifth game, which is to 15 (all games must be won by two points). Under the old system, the sport was like baseball you could never predict how long a match would take. Evenly matched teams often traded serves with no points being scored for minutes at a time.
2. There is a new position called "libero" a defensive specialist adept at "digging" (returning opponent kill attempts) and returning serves. The libero must stay in the back row and wears a different-colored jersey than her teammates.
3. Basic rules: Each team is allowed a maximum of three successive hits (excluding blocking) in returning the ball to the opponent. One player may not hit the ball two times in a row. The ball can't be held in any way it must be hit cleanly. Serves and other shots may touch the net on their way to the opponent's side. It is illegal to block or attack a serve while it is above the net.
4. The usual positions: Outside hitters (attackers), blockers, a setter (who "sets" the ball for attackers), and a libero.
5. The top women hitters can smack the ball at speeds of about 60 mph.
6. Often, a "float" serve the volleyball equivalent of a knuckleball is much more difficult to receive and pass than a bullet serve.
7. Volleyball players are dependent on each other more than players in most sports. If the libero doesn't do a good job of passing, the setter can't do a good job of setting and the hitters can't be as effective. In basketball, a superstar still will find a way to score 30 points regardless of the talent level of teammates.
8. Except for liberos and setters (in systems where setters aren't asked to block), players tend to be tall.
9. Key stat: Hitting percentage, which is determined by subtracting errors from kills (an attack that produces a point) and dividing by total attack attempts. Just like baseball, a hitting percentage better than .300 is considered good.
10. Volleyball terms and phrases: "Faceball" (getting smacked in the face by a spike); "She has a good arm" (means she can spike hard); "Pancake save" (a save in which the defensive player's hand slides between the ball and the floor at the last second; "Husband and wife" (two players fail to communicate and ball drops between them).
11. Jumping ability is a volleyball virtue for hitters and blockers. The statement, "She can jump 10-2" means the player's reach from a standing jump is 10 feet, 2 inches. Most Pac-10 players touch about 10 feet.
12. Teams have diagrammed offensive plays, but on-court adjustments are frequent. One of the most interesting plays is a "quick set," which is a low set made with the intention of getting off an attacking shot before the defense expects it.

Chapter 7 – Trending and Ranging Market
Psychology of Trend
"When a stock moves up, are there more buyers than sellers?"
- When bulls feel optimistic, they don't mind paying extra.
- Bears feel tense in an uptrend, they agree to sell at only a higher price.
- The stronger the feeling, the sharper the rally.
- Rally ends only when many bulls lose their enthusiasm.
- Bullish uptrend
- Each rally reaches a higher high than preceding rally and each decline stops at a higher level than the preceding decline.
- Successive higher highs, higher lows.
- When price slides, bears feel optimistic. Sell short at lower prices.
- Bulls are fearful and agree to buy only at discount.
- Bears feel like winners, they continue to sell at lower prices.
- Downtrend ends when bearss start feeling cautious and refuse to sell at lower prices.
- Bearish downtrend
- Each successive rally fails to penetrate the high point of the previous rally. Each decline terminates at a lower point than the preceding decline.
- Successive lower highs and lower lows.
- Bulls and bears are equally strong or weak.
- When bulls manage to push prices up, bears sell short into the rally.
- Bargain hunters step in and break the decline.
- Bears cover short, their buying fuel minor rally.
- Cycle repeats until either side (bull or bear) decide to take charge.
- Ranging market
- Prices go nowhere.
- Markets spend more time in trading range than trends because aimlessness is more common among people than purposeful action.
How to identify trend and range
- No single magic method
- Identify trends and trading ranges is one of the hardest tasks in technical analysis.
- Confluence of many methods
- If they confirm, go for it.
- If they contradict, pass it.
Checklists for Trending or Ranging Market
|Highs and lows and irregularities
|Trend lines
|Trend line connecting recent highs and lows. Slope of last trend line identifies current trend
|Moving averages
|Exponential moving averages e.g. 20, 100, 200 periods
|Suitable for trending markets
|Double screen
|Refer to higher timeframe
Trend Change
Following a strong trend, the trend may reverse or change to a range.
How about these patterns? Are they trend change signals?
- Identify trends and trading ranges is one of the hardest tasks in TA.
- Trends and trading ranges clearly stand out on old charts.
