The mapping of land capability for ungulates follows a national system developed with the aid of the Canadian Wildlife Service and the game branches of the provinces. The ungulate sector uses seven classes, like the others. In addition to class and subclass, the system indicates the ungulate species to which the classification refers. Capability for ungulate production implies a sufficient quantity and quality of food, protective cover, and space to meet the needs for survival, growth, and reproduction.
Capability mapping is accomplished through interpretation of air photographs and by field surveys. Capability ratings are also established on the basis of the optimum vegetational stage that can be maintained with good wildlife management practices.
Assigning land units to a capability class serves as both an inventory tool for landuse planning and wildlife habitat protection.

Sliding Rock in the Pisgah Forest
Whether you're seven or seventy, Sliding Rock makes a great introduction to the "Land of Waterfalls." This sixty-foot rock waterslide may very well be Western North Carolina's most famous naturally occurring thrill ride. Eleven thousand gallons of water run over Sliding Rock every minute, making your trip fast, heart-racing and unforgettable. Kids of all ages take the plunge, but watching others take the ride is very nearly as much fun as experiencing it yourself.
In all, over 250 waterfalls cascade across our ageless mountains - the highest concentration in North America. Thanks to Pisgah National Forest, DuPont State Recreational Forest and Gorges State Park, Transylvania County makes the ideal jumping-off point for outdoor enthusiasts who want to enjoy the best hiking, mountain biking, fly fishing, and rock climbing in the Southeast.
Your journey of adventure continues in Brevard, one of America's classic small towns. Home to the world-renowned Brevard Music Center and a host of cutting-edge galleries, studios and restaurants, this dynamic community was recently voted by Budget Travel as one of the "Coolest Small Towns in America."
The western end of the county, anchored by Lake Toxaway and Gorges State Park, is a wonderland of unspoiled natural beauty. Gorges is not only considered to be a temperate rain forest, it possesses one of the greatest concentrations of rare and unusual plant species in the Eastern U.S.
Pure adventure. Pure artistry. Pure enjoyment. That's what you'll find in Transylvania County, the Land of Waterfalls.

You care about the 2012 MLB All-Star Game. Here are players who will be playing in it!
Like it or not, the 2012 MLB All-Star Game is coming up on Tuesday, July 10, in Kansas City. Because there is a game being played, there have to be rosters, and because there are rosters, there have to be starting lineups. Sunday, we've learned who's going to be starting for the American League and for the National League as World Series home-field advantage lies at stake. Every time I write that I feel like I'm joking. I am not joking! Every time, I am not joking!
American League
C: Mike Napoli
1B: Prince Fielder
2B: Robinson Cano
SS: Derek Jeter
3B: Adrian Beltre
OF: Josh Hamilton
OF: Curtis Granderson

DH: David Ortiz
National League
C: Buster Posey
1B: Joey Votto
2B: Dan Uggla
SS: Rafael Furcal
3B: Pablo Sandoval
OF: Melky Cabrera

A popular thing to do when All-Star Game selections are made is complain that certain players are picked instead of certain other players. That sure is a popular thing to do at times like these.

The evolution of nomadic swarm raiders: Determining the genetic component of army ant castes
2013 REU Project:
The army ant Eciton burchellii feeds in nomadic swarms and are keystone social predators of Neotropical rainforests. Workers leave the nest in groups of up to several hundred thousand individuals to dismember live prey, exerting strong top-down effects on community structure in the leaf litter. Undoubtedly, a large part of their ecological success can be attributed to their complex caste system, featuring morphologically distinct soldiers that play a critical role in colony defense. Although it is generally held that the diet and rearing environment of developing larvae determines the physical caste of adult individuals, highly polyandrous systems have shown that caste determination might have a significant genetic component. We will use comparative morphometrics to investigate the morphological variation in individuals of different castes, and link this variation to genetic microsatellite data to understand genetic contribution to caste determination in 16 E. burchellii colonies. Considering an average E. burchellii army ant queen mates with 13 males, one of the central questions of this research will be whether certain patrilines have a greater propensity to develop into a particular caste. Furthermore, whether the morphological variation observed in certain patrilines is fundamentally different than other patrilines.
Research methods and techniques: Interns will receive training in imaging, specimen mounting, digital measurement software, geometric morphometric analysis, and multivariate statistics. Moreover, interns will learn how to analyze microsatellite data, and understand the mechanisms behind this molecular method. Depending on spring work flow, there is a possibility that the intern will also receive training in DNA extraction, PCR, and fragment analysis in the Museum's core genetics facility, the Pritzker Laboratory and the DNA Discovery Center.
Curator/Advisors: Dr. Corrie Moreau (Assistant Curator, Zoology/Insects) and Max Winston (Ph.D. graduate student, Zoology/Insects)

Perhaps you heard, this week, that Donald Trump had some VERY BIG NEWS to share with the world, and it was SUCH VERY BIG NEWS that it would, in fact, have VERY BIG IMPACT on the upcoming Presidential election. The Announcement was scheduled for Wednesday, and in the days leading up to that moment, news outlets began to speculate. Many thought Trump would reveal that Michelle Obama had once filed for divorce from Barack. Others didn't really give a shit.
Then Wednesday came and world's anticipation squeaked into a heap of disappointment like a faulty whoopee cushion.
THAT's your announcement, Trump? Indeed.
But as disheartening as it is to know that this odd-headed man is the financial backbone of the Romney campaign, we can find strength during this time by watching Hollywood roast this motherfucker for acting like the dingleberry he is. (I once gave Ashton Kutcher the title of America's Dingleberry, but I think it may be time to pass that torch.)
Let's start with the best. Steven Colbert offers Trump $1 million to let him dip his balls in the tycoon's mouth.
Next, Barack Obama shocks and awes with a zinger on Jay Leno.
Barbara Walters, however, takes a more maternal approach on The View and scolds the Donald for acting A DAMN FOOL.
And let us never forget the power of Twitter in healing a cynical, pseudo-political heart.
Regardless of your political affiliation, I seriously hope we can all agree on the ridiculousness that is Donald Trump. (And if you don't agree, maybe we can talk about a recent PR email I saw circulating asking bloggers to post pictures of his wife dressed up as a slutty Wonder Woman for Halloween. Ahem.)

Mar 30, 201110This review contains spoilers, click expand to view.
Mar 30, 20119even with it's shallow presentation, where shift 2 truly excels is in its driving experience. albeit the steep learning curve will ward off casual racers from finding out what really makes shift 2 stand out, dont be fooled. Need for Speed is FINALLY back.

Apr 4, 201110This game really did give me the feeling that i'm really in the car
I don't know why did people say that the night is much worse than HP
Of course! What do you want on the track? Some fabulous neon light?
This is a brand new game for me
It's great
If you want fog or stuff like that
GO play GT5
I'm enjoying what I have now here -
Apr 18, 201110Surprisingly very nicely done racing game with realistic feelings. not simulation at all but its a fun to drive these expensive cars (elite mod with helmet camera+steering wheel) and sounds are just brilliant ! very similarly like a grid game. good job ! ! ! sry for my english.. :)

Apr 6, 20119This game fills a niche nicely. The wheel/controller support needs some work, but overall the game is still very playable. The AI leans a bit too far on the aggressive side and in a real race would get black flagged.
Graphics look great. Sound is spot on. The tracks are all there, especially for GT races. Oh yeah it has Mt Panorama, Bathurst, in there. :) -

Nov 14, 201110With G27 Shift 2 do somehow really feels like real thing, and totally enjoyable. The graphic setting is a total console port, but eventually you can tweak it on your own, and it looks way better than GT5. Besides that I have nothing to say about Shift 2, it's simply a great fun racer (or simulation) for people who want to have a taste of some real racing.
Sep 3, 20129This game may be the best racing game I have ever played. It's realistic, and really fun. The best NFS to date. This game includes a great class of cars, and terrific, exciting races. SIngleplayer was great, but multiplayer was simply fantastic. The game may be hard sometimes, bu It's really challenging. 92 out of 100
Oct 27, 201210The graphics are sharp and the gameplay is awesome this is one of the best need for speed games ever. The music rocks and i also like the selection of cars.
Jun 9, 201170As PC's only alternative to GT5, Shift 2 is satisfactory at best. But true racing enthusiasts will need to go elsewhere to really satisfy their...need for speed. [July 2011, p.74]
May 22, 201190NFS series is back where we want it to be. Perfect graphics, enhanced driving model and the view from the cockpit are the features you will Shift 2 piously worship. [Issue#203]
May 11, 201183Overall, Shift 2 Unleashed is a fantastic driving game that should satisfy fans on either side of the arcade/simulation spectrum. The game may not be as sheer fun as Hot Pursuit was only six months ago, but could easily occupy a cherished spot on your shelf right next to it.

Redmond Eye Doctors fulfills its vision to open at new location
By SAMANTHA PAK
Redmond Reporter Reporter
November 2, 2012 · 11:11 AM
It may have taken half a decade, but Redmond Eye Doctors is finally in its new downtown location at 8630 164th Ave. N.E., Suite 100.
The move was a five-year process that began shortly after owner Rania Montecillo bought the practice in 2007 from former owner Jeffery Forrey, who had retired that year.
"And then we grew and so we decided we needed to expand," Montecillo said about what prompted the move.
She said Redmond Eye Doctors, which has been in business for about 25 years, has grown about 20 percent since she bought it and they now see about 3,000 patients. Before buying the practice from Forrey, Montecillo was already working at the practice as a doctor. She is one of two doctors currently at the practice — the second is Robin Gouin. Their patients range from 6 months to 102 years, which Montecillo loves.
"It's very fun actually," she said. "I enjoy it. It keeps me on my toes."
Montecillo said the new 3,400-square-foot space is three times bigger than their previous 1,200-square-foot space, which is located about a block south of the new building on Northeast 85th Street. With this additional space, she said she and Gouin will now be able to practice simultaneously whereas they used to split their hours because there was limited space in their former office. Montecillo said this will offer patients more hours and flexibility to see their doctor, adding that they plan to bring in more doctors eventually.
In addition to more doctor availability, the new space will allow Redmond Eye Doctors to update and expand in the technology arena, as well, because they now have the space to bring in the latest equipment. The practice has also doubled its optical space, giving patients a wider selection of frames to choose from — including large and petite frames and brands ranging from J. Lo and Juicy Couture to Coach and Banana Republic to Nike and Converse.
Optician Dana Critchlow said one of the things she enjoys about her job is witnessing that moment when people see themselves in the right pair of glasses for the first time.
Although Critchlow's job is to fit people for glasses, she is cross trained to be able to pitch in and help in other areas — just as most of the staff in the office is. This allows the practice to run more efficiently.
Critchlow, who commutes from Snohomish to work, added that Redmond Eye Doctors is also a place people feel good about working there.
"It's like family and that's what we want (for) our patients," she said. "To be comfortable."
Business manager Melanie Limtiaco agreed. She said they don't want the office to feel like a clinic. They want people to feel welcome while receiving high-quality care.
This focus on customer service shows not just in staff behavior and attitude, but in the new office's design, as well, which includes a large front lobby with couches to relax on and large windows to let in plenty of natural light.
Limtiaco said the new office's design has been Montecillo's vision from the beginning and never changed.
"She stuck to it," Limtiaco said.
Redmond Eye Doctors occupies the bottom floor of the new building, which Montecillo had built specifically for the expansion, but the top floor is still available. She said there are 9,000 square feet available that can be split however the tenant wants or occupied in its entirety. The building is a Class A medical building, which means day surgeries could be performed, and Montecillo said she would like to see the top floor occupied by other medical practices.

Along with the usual New Year's resolutions about exercising, getting more sleep, and being more patient with the kids, progressives should add better communications to their list. We have an historic opportunity to frame the public debate this year in terms of social justice, human rights, and opportunity for all. But that requires being smarter and more deliberate in the way we talk about the nation's priorities and future. At the very least, we need to stop using certain words and phrases that erode support for progressive values and policies. Here's my list. I'll ask for yours at the end of this post.
1. The Market. Building public support for a more fair economic system requires highlighting the fact that the economy is a set of human-made rules, systems, and structures, not an autonomous organism or an unbridled force of nature. Referring to bankers, CEOs, and other financial actors as "the market" obscures that reality, and reinforces the conservative notion that economic regulation is a hindrance rather than a crucial part of the rules that govern a just society. Instead, let's clearly identify the people and institutions that are at work—for good or for ill—in our economic system. Instead of "regulating the free market," let's talk about "rules that hold banks accountable" or "consumer protections."

Here we go again. Republicans are very clear about their latest extortion threat to the American people: Unless you cut Social Security and Medicare benefits, within the next two months we will throw the US economy back into recession - by refusing to allow the US raise the debt ceiling and pay our bills - or by pushing the economy over another fiscal cliff of deep spending cuts and tax increases - or by shutting down the government by refusing to pass a continuing budget resolution.
But it is very important for progressives and politicians to remember that most Americans hate what the Republicans are doing here. Who but Right Wing terrorists could support pushing the economy back into recession, throwing millions of Americans out of work? That's what Republicans are threatening. And huge majorities also hate the price Republicans are demanding to prevent their threat of manufactured chaos: the idea of cutting Social Security and Medicare benefits.
Republicans can get their way only if Democrats fail to realize they have the American people on our side. And once Republicans are clear about their proposals, Americans turn against them.
During the election, Paul Ryan's plan to turn Medicare into a voucher was so unpopular that candidate Mitt Romney ran away from his Vice Presidential nominee's proposal. Democrats won the election.
It's time for President Obama to fire and quickly replace the Acting Director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), Edward DeMarco, with a Director who will uphold the Agency's mission to "support housing finance and affordable housing, and support a stable and liquid mortgage market." DeMarco, a holdover from the Bush administration, is interim head of the FHFA, which currently oversees Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
The Opportunity Agenda and dozens of other housing and consumer groups have called for DeMarco's ouster and replacement with an appointee who will utilize a full range of effective solutions, including adjusting mortgage principal to reflect the fair market value of homes that are underwater—meaning that they are worth less than what the homeowners owe on their mortgages. DeMarco has blocked principal correction on any of the 30 million mortgages owned or backed by Fannie and Freddie, despite incentives from the Treasury Department and undisputed evidence that it would strengthen the economy while helping homeowners get back on track.
As the election results sink in, partisans are busy debating what 2012 voting patterns mean for Republican and Democratic prospects in the next election cycle. But what lessons do this year's results hold for those of us who are committed to expanding opportunity and protecting human rights in ways that transcend party and outlast individual elections or candidates? The lessons are plenty, including some that defy the conventional wisdom.
An American Values Majority Political observers are arguing that Mitt Romney and conservative Senate candidates were done in by "demographics," meaning that the traditional base of white male voters is no longer sufficient to attain electoral victory, both nationally and in an increasing number of states. The ascendancy of people of color, young people, and single women as voters, the story goes, overpowered that base in ways that will only strengthen over time.
I joined Campaign for America's Future's Richard Eskow to talk about the "fiscal cliff" scare, austerity, Social Security, Medicare and how we WON the election so we really should be talking about jobs instead.
This was a GREAT hour, and hold the information you need to arm yourself to win holiday-dinner conversations with your right-wing brother-in-law.
The conversation refers to my post, Fiscal Cliff Scare Talk Follows Shock Doctrine Script as well as several posts by Richard Eskow including, Wall Street Finds a 'Third Way' to Plunder Our Wealth, The "Fiscal Cliff" Is a Hoax … and a Mel Brooks Routine, The Grand Swindle – Veterans on a Cliff, After the Election, a New Mandate – and New "Fiscal Cliff" Math

You can help change the economy! Big companies use their size and the fear of losing our jobs to force us to accept no raises or even lower pay and benefits. They can use their size to force communities, states and even the federal government to lower their taxes. You can help change the economy by standing with Walmart workers next week. They have the money but we have the people.
A month ago there were strikes at 12 Walmart stores and protests at more than 200 stores. Walmart illegally tried to silence organizers. Now there are strikes planned for "Black Friday." But Walmart workers aren't waiting, there are actions going on between now and next Friday, and you can join in.
Walmart is BIG. They are so big they can dictate to their supply chain, the communities where they are located, state governments, and even the federal government. And, of course, their workers. And when Walmart's workers are paid less, that puts pressure on workers everywhere else.
This is like so many other companies right now, using their size and the fact that so many people are looking for work to force wages down. And this forces pay down for the rest of us. All of this while these companies are reaping record profits for themselves.
You can stand with Walmart's workers, and demand changes in the way our economy works.

Ohio Senator Sherror Brown won reelection by "waging class warfare" using middle-class populism. Here is how.
Ohio Senator Sherrod Brown, a Democrat, faced a tough battle for reelection. Huge amounts of Wall Street, multinational corporate, billionaire and undisclosed money (China?) -- at least $35 million -- poured in. Brown beat Ohio's State Treasurer Josh Mandel and was reelected by more than 5% using a strong middle class populist argument. He called for curbing the excesses of Wall Street, and ending taxpayer-funded giveaways to huge corporations that send American jobs overseas. And Brown especially, especially championed American manufacturing over the interests of Wall Street and the giant multinational corporations.
Brown stood up for the class interests of Ohio's blue-collar voters and won reelection. He took the side of the many against the side of the big-money few.
Visit the Wage Class War website and see how candidates who supported the economic interests of the many over the few won their elections. Earlier this year Brown was considered vulnerable because he had voted for the stimulus and Obamacare. But Brown supported the "auto bailout" and was a strong proponent of manufacturing, and of taking on China, especially over currency manipulation. Josh Mandel, Brown's opponent, opposed the auto bailout.
By Stephen Miles and William Hartung
Nothing grips Washington more than a good scandal, particularly when it involves sex, power and money. Last week's surprise resignation of C.I.A. Director David Petraeus has filled countless column inches and primetime minutes of television. The news of Gen. John Allen's involvement in the scandal is surely going to keep the story at the top of the news cycle for days to come.
While our news media pours over every titillating detail of the Petraeus affair, there's another scandal that's gone largely unnoticed by the defense community. Last Friday, Lockheed Martin quietly announced that after having been groomed to take over for departing C.E.O. Robert Stevens this January, that would-be C.E.O. Christopher Kubasik would be resigning over a long term extramarital affair with a "subordinate employee."
The voters clearly voted to do something about the bad trade deals, trade cheating and currency manipulation that are draining our jobs and economy. The big money likes things just the way they are. Which will prevail -- the voters who just voted, or the big money that just lost? One week after the election in which the airwaves were saturated with Republican ads blasting China, and so far the Republicans are still siding with the money, and with China.
A report on campaign ads was released today by Kantar Media's Campaign Media Analysis Group (CMAG) conducted for the Alliance for American Manufacturing (AAM). The report said, "more than 975,000 mentions were made in presidential TV advertising about the key issues of jobs, outsourcing, and trade generally or involving China specifically, and Gov. Romney's involvement with Bain Capital."
975,000 mentions, seen my X-million people, multiplied by 2 eyes and ears each is a lot of eye- and ear-minutes that were exposed to messages calling for doing something about the problem of our trade deals hurting our jobs, factories, industries and chunks of our economy.
When we say trade and manufacturing and jobs, we mean "China."
In President Obama's stunningly convincing reelection, only part of his education policies got reaffirmed -- the part he talked about most of the time during the campaign.
Meanwhile, the president's policies known to align with what is commonly called "education reform" -- which closely adheres to Beltway conventional wisdom and the druthers of rich folks -- appear to have little support on the ground.
His return to office is undoubtedly due, in part, to most Americans agreeing with his assertion that education is an essential "investment" in the future of our country.
This was "the softer part of his education agenda," as Joy Resmovits explains at Huffington Post, that he brought out in "speeches and debates" to differentiate himself from his opponent Mitt Romney.
Take all that post-election commentary about foolish billionaires and wasted millions in political contributions with a grain of salt. Our billionaires don't have to actually win on Election Day to get their way.
Anyone who has read The Shock Doctrine understands exactly what this "Fiscal Cliff" scare is.
If you have already read The Shock Doctrine by Naomi Klein you have probably been rolling your eyes at all this "Fiscal Cliff" scare talk. "Here they go again" you're thinking... If you haven't read the book, you should. You really, really should.
At the end of the year the Bush tax cuts expire. When this happens tax rates will rise modestly to where they were when Clinton was President. Also at the end of the year budget "sequestration" occurs. This means that the various cuts Congress approved to end the debt ceiling "crisis" will begin to phase in. (Remember, the debt-ceiling "crisis" was when Republicans refused to allow the country to honor its debts, holding the economy hostage, unless they got deep budget cuts in the things We the People do for each other.)
The public looked at the stories about Solyndra and Sensata and voted. They voted for clean energy jobs IN the US, not for vulture capitalism that ships our jobs and industries OUT of the US. They voted to act as a united country instead of a leaving everyone on their own, in it only for themselves. They said We, the People are a people, not just a bunch of dorks out there on our own, alone at the mercy of the wealthy and powerful.
Our government's investment in solar-manufacturing companies was part of an attempt to bring clean energy jobs to the US. Solar power is obviously a big industry of the future, and the countries that can build up a manufacturing/research/education/skill/supply chain ecosystem will do well. Solyndra was one of several companies working on solar technologies that the government thinks will help our economy.
After solar-panel prices dropped, partly as a result of Chinese government subsidies to their own companies, Solyndra and some other solar-power companies didn't make it. But the country still gained from the investment in expertise, research and other parts of the solar-manufacturing ecosystem that occurred in this country through the Solyndra investment.
Remember, the investment in Solyndra and companies like it is an attempt to trigger a manufacturing ecosystem here in the US, not to make a profit from individual investments.
OurFuture.org's Richard Eskow: "So, let's get this straight: A Republican President is re-elected in 2004 with 284 electoral votes and the pundits say he has the 'political capital' to push an extreme right-wing mandate. A Democratic President gets re-elected in 2012 with 303 electoral votes, and they're telling us he needs to 'unite a divided country.' Nonsense. This election was a clear and unequivocal victory for the populist positions the President took on the campaign trail."
Biden asserts tax mandate. HuffPost quotes: "There was a clear, a clear sort of mandate about people coming much closer to our view about how to deal with tax policy."
In the last election the forces of concentrated wealth and corporate power played the same old divide-and-conquer game they have been playing for decades, but this time it didn't work! They tried to divide us by race, religion, sex, sexual preference, class and every other wedge they could find, and it didn't work! The era of dividing the people for profit is over. Democracy pushes forward.
For decades a simple formula has played out. Divide us by religion, race, whatever, divert our attention, get us to vote out of feat and hate or just get us to stay away from the polls, and they can pocket the spoils. The game has been to pump a few hundred million a year into the Karl Rove/Grover Norquist/conservative movement con game and pull out billions in tax breaks, subsidies, wars-for-profit, grants of monopoly and the other fruits of the lobbying/corruption game.
This time it didn't work.

JACKSONVILLE BEACH, Fla. -- He's known for his speed and toughness on the football field. But Tuesday, Maurice Jones-Drew shows his softer side.
Over a high-dollar feast, 20 lucky high school athletes from Andrew Jackson High School dined in style. At the head of the table, none other than Jags superstar MJD.
"They want to do something with their lives," he said of the kids. "So many times now we see kids that throw their lives away, they say things are too hard and they kind of give up so it's always good to show if you do put that best foot forward and do your best you'll be OK."
He says getting to the NFL was no walk in the park and admits growing up, he wasn't always the best on or off the field.
"I've never been the best student. And I wasn't always the best football player but a lot of hard work and a lot of whooping crack from those two back there definitely helped me a bunch."
Jones-Drew is talking about mom and grandma -- who he credits with keeping him in line. Tuesday, they were watching Mojo as he passed on their family lessons.
"I love to see that cause I taught him that," said mom Andrea Jones-Drew.
Zuriel Davis sat in awe through much of the meal. MJD's a role model, and this experience is one he says he'll never forget.
And what Davis will take away from this experience makes it all worth it to the pro and his proud mama.
"If we change one that's good. If we can help them get to college and get them a computer and help them go, then we'll do all of that," said Andrea Jones-Drew.

As Buchanan Ingersoll & Rooney lifer Ronald Basso settles into his new role as head of longtime client Black Box Corp.'s legal department, his focus will be less on managing the company's legal functions and more on identifying business opportunities.
"It's not unintentional that my title begins with the business development function," Basso said. "My primary role is to help the company identify strategic business initiatives and help the company do those internally and externally."
Black Box President and Chief Operating Officer Michael McAndrew is set to become the new chief executive officer in April. He and Basso had worked together for years and as McAndrew began to reorganize his management team, he approached Basso about coming on board in a new capacity.
The two came up with a role that brought the business and legal functions closer together executive vice president-business development, general counsel and corporate secretary.
Basso said he will be looking at how Black Box can capitalize on existing assets and identifying acquisition targets.
"Having the legal background and knowledge of the company, the hope is that we can be more efficient and effective" in meeting those goals, Basso said.
In his private practice representing public companies on SEC compliance and corporate transaction issues, Basso said he always felt he could play an important role as a business adviser rather than simply providing legal solutions. Some clients were more receptive to that than others, he said, adding his new role gives him the opportunity to break out of the "lawyer shell."
Basso will be working with several groups within the corporation. There will be a team created to identify strategic objectives for the company. He said Black Box "plays in a rapidly changing tech space in the communications area" and this group will focus on where the company needs to be headed and how it will get there, Basso said.
There will also be a mergers and acquisitions team of business people who will identify potential acquisition targets if the strategy team decides that is a good approach for the company. The M&A team will identify targets, vet them and then help execute a deal if it gets to that point, Basso said.
And then of course there is the legal department. There are currently three attorneys, including Basso, who constitute Black Box's in-house legal team. There is an attorney based in Herndon, Va., who handles the company's government contract business, which is about 20 percent of Black Box's revenue. And then there is another attorney in the Lawrence, Pa., headquarters who is a commercial business lawyer focusing on commercial contracts, real estate, litigation and other matters. Basso will maintain a lot of the duties he had as Black Box's outside counsel, such as SEC matters, corporate governance and working with the board.

Will a transaction that is trying to write something into the transaction log be rolled back if the transaction log is full?
Tell me more

Yes but it will be the rollback which actually causes the log to become physically full. As a transaction generates log records, it will also reserve space in the log for any records required required to rollback. With 20MB of log space remaining and a hypothetical transaction that generates 10MB of log records, you would receive the log full error with 10MB still free and the rollback would then consume that 10MB. |
Yes. The log entry is needed to rollback (or server fail etc) so all the changes must be recorded. |
YES. check this KB http://support.microsoft.com/kb/110139 |
In sybase you have "abort tran on log full" db_option to choose what to do. In SQL Server you can't really choose, the rollback is made. |

It makes Cutler's comfort level alot lower every time he comes up to the line . THOSE , make Cutty's job much more difficult cuz it's more in the front of his mind . Alot of AR's sacks are after he has had time to run around a little and he often just flops / turtles .... so he doesn't get WALLOPED nearly as much .
AR has MORE time . Period . This is just more Packers subterfuge ( making it sound like he's under siege just as much ) . He isn't !

Senator Warren and Mayor Menino Discuss Gun Violence Prevention
Warren is sponsoring three bills that would support gun control reform, a gun buyer background check, and making gun trafficking a federal crime.
Boston Mayor Thomas Menino and Senator Elizabeth Warren discussed gun violence prevention on Friday, championing reforms including a criminal background check on anyone buying a gun in the country. "Now is the time to turn words into actions, to line up supporters and to mobilize all Americans behind common sense gun reform," Menino said after walking to the podium with a cane at the Parkman House. Menino joked with Warren, calling her the "senior" senator of Massachusetts, then turned serious about three major points key to gun violence prevention: Warren said she's sponsored three bills being unveiled next week that support those three points. Senator Charles Schumer, D-NY, is filing the Fix Gun Checks Act to close the gap in current …

'Don't jump into the sexual arena if you can't handle the volatility of its practice!'
Hm. Isn't this advice equally applicable for guys who are convinced that any woman at any time could 'cry date rape' without warning? What about guys who can't be bothered to secure consent from their partners? Why don't they do everyone a favor and just keep it zipped.
In conclusion, Knepper: you first.

Life Trends for Windows Phone 8, predicting your life forecast and personality
Life Trends is an odd little app for your Windows Phone 8 device. It was developed to evaluate your personality and diagram your life activity and trends.
The foundation is based on a group of experts in the field of mathematical prediction, numerology and astrology. It's a horoscope app of sorts but instead of giving you a daily prediction, it tackles your entire life span in one try. One could say it's a tool to give your life a little balance.
The interface with Life Trends is somewhat simple and for what the app claims to present, maybe too simple. The main page has entry fields for your date of birth and time of birth. With that information you can view your individual profile or a diagram of your life activity.
The individual profile is an analysis that reflects your character traits that have been represented since birth. The profile lists your strengths and less distinguished traces of character. A description of these traits are only listed for your strengths. For example, under "purpose" you will find,
"You will not compromise on anything for the intended purpose; you have a practical view of the world."
The diagram of activity will chart your activity as you grow in age. A horizontal line will reflect your performance expectations. When your activity reading passes the performance expectation line, you are seen as fully feeling the taste of life. If you see the your reading fall below the bar in the future, you can begin to prepare and minimize the impact.
You also have the option to add a partner's activity graph to see how the two of you connect. At the bottom of the chart's page are three control buttons; Help, Home and Add Partner. Just tap the Add Partner button, enter your partners' date of birth and their activity reading will be added. One theory is that as your life activity is on the down slope and your partner's is on the up swing, they will help you through these times.
I can't really say the science behind Life Trends is accurate or with foundation but the app itself ran smoothly. It would have been nice to have the ability to save your profile and add others but as is, the app only lets you view one personality profile and activity diagram (except when you add a partner) at a time.
The biggest downside to Life Trends is that there isn't a trial version. Another feature this app needs so those with curiosity about mathematical predictions on life trends can take a peak and decide if it's worth the cost.
As is, Life Trends will run you $1.49 and the Windows Phone 8 app is available here in the Windows Phone Store.

A fart app being useless was implicated. :P

Ah, so I can infer from your implication that fart apps are indeed useless. To which implication I would agree. You don't need a smartphone to fart. Heinz created an app for that decades ago.

"Waking up is the worst part of each day, but that does not give you an excuse for being lazy" Aron's mom said as she pulled the blinds away from his windows. He made a grunt before he finally managed to get out of bed and into the shower. While h was showering he sang a bit which was totally normal for him, but today it just did not come natural to him. It felt forced and manipulated, so quickly got done in the shower and ran to get his breakfast. Then his mom started her lectures again "Dont be rude, dont be late-" Aron knew this whole list of things his mom was going to say, so he tuned out and just nodded when she looked at him. His eyes moved over to a raven sitting right outside the window looking in. Aron tried to scare it with a hasty wave of his hand, but the raven did not seem to care the least. "- and finally don't do drugs" well his mom was finally done with listing all the things thou shall not do and Aron was also done with his food.
He bolted out the door and right outside it stood the same raven looking up at him. "what is wrong with you?" Aron said more interested then freaked out. "Why don't you just fly away and leave me alone?" he said reaching down to the bird. The raven made a leap up into the air and landed softly on Aron's left shoulder. "you must be brain damaged" Aron looked over at the raven which just tilted it head slightly to the side. He pushed the bird of his shoulder in a slow manner to not freak the bird out, but for each Aron pushed it down the raven just took a closer and closer grip with its talons. "Cool bird" a random passerby said with a laugh. That was it that bird was going of Aron's shoulder alive or not. Aron walked towards the buss to school and right before he went inside pushed the raven as hard as he could and ran inside the bus.
The raven did not give up that easily. The very moment Aron was out of his bus the raven was back on his left shoulder "Are you kidding me!"

Elkin scored six runs in the sixth inning to turn a one run deficit into a four run victory on Tuesday night over the Huskies.
Ashe scored in the very first inning after Alex Laws walked, stole second base and stole third base. Senior catcher Carson Knight smacked a single to center to bring in Laws.
Husky pitcher Cameron Guyton had things on cruise control until the fourth inning when the Elks tied the score at 1-1. Frank Miller tripled then Daniel Brinegar singled to bring in the run.
Elkin took a 2-1 lead in the bottom of the fifth inning after Logan Newman walked, moved to second base on another walk to Drew Shinkle, and then moved to third on a passed ball. Jamey Cranford hit a flyball to left field which allowed Newman to come home on the sacrifice fly.
The Elks scored four more in the bottom of the sixth inning to take a commanding 6-1 lead. Brandon Bradley had an RBI single, Ted Shore knocked in a run on a sacrifice fly, Newman knocked in Seth Creed with an RBI single and Seth Haynes stole home to put Ashe down five runs.
Ashe got one of those runs back in the top of the seventh after a double steal. Joe Richardson stole second base while Guyton scampered home from third. After that, Ashe could not cut into the Elkin lead and dropped its fourth game of the season.
The Huskies are now 2-4 overall and 2-4 in the Mountain Valley Athletic Conference.
Ashe finished the game with six hits as a team, and played another solid defensive game with no errors committed.
Richardson led Ashe with a pair of hits. Guyton, Knight, Jonathan Barlow and Brandon Carpenter each chipped in a basehit.
On the mound, Guyton went 5.1 innings and allowed five earned runs on nine hits with two walks and eight strikeouts.
Bradley went all seven innings for the Elks and got the victory. He allowed just two runs on six hits with a game-high 12 strikeouts.
