Rivers is passing to a 31 year old Floyd, Danario Alexander?, Robert Meachem, and a 32 year old Gates. That is a far cry from what he had when he 1st came into the league. He will have over 3500 yards with that. Yeah he isn't an elite QB never was but has done fairly well given the weapons around him. Not to mention his line is a LOT worse then ours right now. He will have more sacks this year then his 1st two years combined. Ronnie Brown may actually be the best hands on that team right now LOL
I hear you. Ok. But why not go with a young assistant from a recently demonstrated offensive minded team like NO or BG?
I respectfully disagree. I still want to see if Sanchez can develop like he was 2 years ago with better talent around him. Hopefully, he will have better coaching too to combine with more weapons. If Mark fails, then, once again, cut his azz.....
Suckchez should develop his skills in the CFL. He is not an NFL QB plain and simple. 4 years of below average QB play! The first two years he got by with a great defense and run game. Then it all came apart and he stunk up the joint! 51 turnovers in two years! Yet you want more! I want the Jets to win not regress even more with Suckchez at the helm.
Looks like we are all set for an amazingly mediocre 2013!
I hate to be negative but I have to disagree about the Jets being set for next year at WR.
Holmes was inconsistent before getting injured this year. He's a known clubhouse cancer and now he'll be a year out of practice. I hope he returns to form, and I think it's likely he will. But it's not certain
Edwards needs to show he's still a good WR. He is two years removed from being productive
Hill was bad this year. Many bad drops. Again, I'm hopeful, but you can't bank on Hill all of a sudden having good hands next year
I agree Kerley looks really good
As for the others...Shillens, Gates, etc....well....I think they've developed a lot this year which is positive....
It still feels to me like this could break either way. I hope it turns out well but I don't think it is correct to say they are set...
It's amazing how with the addition of 1 WR cut from 2 playoff teams and the possible return of another trouble maker from what looked like the type of injury that could affect his game, the Jets who so many said had the worst skill position players in the league are now somehow set at WR.
Lol do you guys watch other games besides the Jets? Imagine if you were reading this same thread on a Miami Dolphins board, you'd laugh no? We're just about in the same boat. 31st and theyre 32nd maybe in terms of WR talent
edwards hasnt done **** in years. dont act like he just came off a 1500 yard season. holmes cant be counted on either, and if we do count on him he's a 700 yard or so receiver. stephen hill if he works on his overall game can be somebody to look out for next year, we've seen what he can do in week one. the rest? kerley is a #4 receiver at best. shilens is a chump, cant stay healthy. when healthy he's still a chump. the rest of those bums are practice squad type receivers.
hill as a #1 and a good possession receiver as a #2. maybe holmes can be that guy for once
Need a stud WR. Everybody is average at best.
Throw in a QB while we're at it.
And some new linebackers.
And a couple of offensive guards.
And a new GM.
And a new coach.
And a new owner.
Did I miss anything?
At this point of his career, Hill is NOT a better option than Braylon and the Jets FO would be wise to sign BE to a one-year heavily-incentive-laced deal so that the Jets can THEN be a "middle of the pack easy at WR" that you claim they are(when they aren't).
You can take your "C'MON SON" and stick it 'cause it don't jive, sucka!
Seriously, though. Hill is not on the same level as Braylon so please stop it with the "Braylon hasn't done jack in years" crap-talk. Even THAT "Braylon" is still eons better than Hill.

The vast majority of Exodus adventures are adult group holidays. Groups are always small in size. We strongly believe that this adherence to small groups means a better experience for all; more time with your guide, less waiting around and a reduced impact on the communities and environments visited.
Each group is generally made up of like-minded travellers - with singles, couples and friends all joining in together.
All these trips are suitable for single travellers, but if you prefer to travel with clients booking individually, please
see our Solo Departures page.
Full days in the outdoors, with walks or activities lasting 4-6 hours a day. Fitness becomes more important at this level and some previous experience is desirable. Walks at this grade compares to extended walking in mountainous terrain, climate and remoteness can also play a part.
Winter Activities: It's about seeking out alternative ways to have fun in unspoilt locations, you won't find standard skiing or snowboarding breaks here.

Chiho Aoshima: The Red-Eyed Tribe
June 11, 2009 – October 4, 2009
Tokyo-based Chiho Aoshima is one of the most promising artists to emerge from the Kaikai Kiki studio of renowned artist Takashi Murakami. Aoshima works in a variety of media, including digital imaging, photography, sculpture, and video. Like Murakami, she draws influence from traditional Japanese painting, contemporary consumer society, the robust popular cartoon and animation culture of manga, and an obsession with kawaii (or "cute imagery"). The Henry will present a recently acquired digital drawing entitled The Red-Eyed Tribe. In this mural Aoshima immerses viewers in a disorienting fairytale that is at once innocent and seductive, childlike and grotesque.

OUTGROWING THE EARTH: THE FOOD SECURITY CHALLENGE IN AN AGE OF FALLING WATER TABLES AND RISING TEMPERATURES by Lester R. Brown (W.W. Norton & Co.) >From Chapter 8: Reversing Chinas Harvest Decline The phenomenal rise in Chinas grain production from 90 million tons in 1950 to 392 million tons in 1998 was one of the great economic success stories of the late twentieth century. But in 1998 production peaked and turned downward, falling to 322 million tons in 2003. As noted in Chapter 1, this drop of 70 million tons exceeds the entire grain harvest of Canada. Thus any attempt to expand the world grain harvest enough to rebuild depleted world grain stocks starts with reversing the decline in China. Virtually all of Chinas production decline of nearly 18 percent from 1998 to 2003 is the result of a 16-percent shrinkage in grain area. Several forces are at work here, as described in Chapter 5. Cropland is being converted to nonfarm uses at a record rate, including industrial and residential construction and the paving of land for roads, highways, and parking lots. With deserts expanding by 360,000 hectares (1,400 square miles) a year, drifting sands are covering cropland in the north and west, making agriculture impossible. The loss of irrigation water is also reducing the harvested area, particularly of wheat, which is grown in the northern, drier regions of the country. In 2004 Chinas improved grain harvest, lifted by a substantial rise in the rice support price and unusually favorable weather, was expected to regain 21 million of the 70-million-ton-drop of the preceding five years. Even with this projected production increase, Chinas harvest in 2004 will still fall short of consumption by 35 million tons. And there are several worrying trends that undermine the hope that the harvest will rise consistently again anytime soon.

Position statement. Four principles motivate me in my IEEE volunteer activities. (1) The primary duty of IEEE is to benefit its members, their professions, and through them, the world. (2) Members of IEEE are not simply a different form of customer, but must be empowered participants. (3) IEEE works best when authority and responsibility are pushed outwards to societies, chapters, editors, authors, organizers, and individual members. (4) IEEE does a wonderful job for academic members, but most IEEE members are practitioners; we need more programs for practitioners.
Biography. Jim Moore, a Fellow Member of the IEEE, recently retired from The MITRE Corporation, a non-profit "think tank," where he worked on practical techniques for high-confidence software engineering. Prior to joining MITRE, he worked for IBM with contributions to seminal technologies such as CMOS computer architectures, microprogramming, token ring networks, structured programming, clean-room software development, formalized process definition, and software reuse. He has led IEEE, INCITS, and ISO/IEC standards efforts in areas including software engineering and computing security, and now serves as the Computer Society's liaison to the international committee for software and systems engineering standards. He has served the Computer Society as a Board member, as Treasurer, and in three Vice President roles, as well as serving as a member of the IEEE Board of Directors. He was an executive editor of the 2004 Computer Society Guide to the Software Engineering Body of Knowledge and as a member of the editorial board of the 2002 Encyclopedia of Software Engineering. He has written two books on software engineering standards and is the recipient of the IEEE's 2011 Charles Proteus Steinmetz Award and the Computer Society's 2009 Hans Karlsson Award.
Charlene ("Chuck") Walrad
We are uniquely positioned to form a common international voice for computing professionals, and to help them advance in professional development and in their professions, wherever they are. As Vice President of Standards, I have seen, up close, how valuable our international standards are in the global community. I will continue to work for increased international representation in our standards development efforts.
As Chair of the Professional Activities Board's IT Committee, I've also seen how much it can benefit IT professionals across the globe to enjoy a common language of IT. As part of my duties, I am overseeing the development of a Guide to the IT Body of Knowledge and the development of an IT competency model. Our goal is to create a transnational framework for IT excellence. In doing this, we will serve not only our individual members, but we will also foster greater contact and collaboration with industry in such key areas as Smart Grid, Cloud Computing, Green Technologies, Cybersecurity, and Technology Management. This, in turn, leads to closer collaboration with academia, as we share with them society's needs for the next generation's education.
Biography. Charlene ("Chuck") Walrad has more than 30 years of experience in the software and IT industries, leading the development of more than two dozen commercial software products across a variety of applications, ranging from the widely used Systran natural language translation systems to CA's Ingres RDBMS system. In 1987, she founded Davenport Consulting (www.daven.com), whose clients include companies like Adobe, IBM, Microsoft, AAA, and Ford. She has spoken at numerous industry conferences and written several publications in the field.
Walrad is a Senior Member of IEEE, a member of the Board of Governors, VP of the Standards Activities Board, and chairs the IT Committee of Professional Activities Board. She is a past member of the Computer Society's Constitution and Bylaws Committee, Nomination Committee, Digital Library Operations Committee, the Executive Committees of IEEE's Software and Systems Engineering Standards Committee (S2ESC) and of the Technical and Conference Activities Board, and was the working group chair for the development of a new software configuration management standard, IEEE Std 828-2012.
Walrad received her first two degrees from Arizona State University and the third from the University of California, San Diego.

Reward offered for tip that solvesrobbery of unconscious woman
Crime Stoppers of Wichita/Sedgwick County is offering a reward of up to $2,500 for information leading to the arrest of the person responsible for robbing an unconscious woman in a drive-through lane at a local fast-food restaurant.
As 43-year-old Danielle Zimmerman lay unconscious in her gray Nissan Frontier, someone stole her purse, iPhone and wedding ring. The incident occurred at the Taco Bell restaurant in the 3700 block of East Harry on the night of Sunday, December 29. Ms. Zimmerman, who had suffered an aneurism, passed away earlier this week.
On December 30, Wichita Police officers were contacted by the Wichita Fire Department near Mt. Vernon and I-135 after firefighters reported children sledding in the area found the purse in the I-135 canal. Although Ms. Zimmerman's purse, a credit card and her checkbook were recovered, other credit cards, some cash, and her iPhone and wedding ring are still missing.
"It is hard to imagine that someone would steal from an unconscious woman," said Gordon Bassham, executive director of the Wichita Crime Commission. Crime Stoppers is a division of the Crime Commission.
"Crime Stoppers is asking anyone with information about this crime to contact us anonymously so the robber can be brought to justice."
Bassham said Crime Stoppers is offering a reward of up to $2,500 to the person who provides the tip that leads to an arrest in the case. Tips can be submitted by calling 316-267-2111; online at www.WichitaCrimeStoppers.com; or by cell phone text message by calling CRIMES (274637) and beginning the message with TIP217. All ways are safe and anonymous, and no one will ever ask the tipster's name.
"Since there were several people trying to help Ms. Zimmerman at the time of the incident, we hope they or someone else might have information about the robber," Bassham said. "There is someone out there who can help solve this crime."

As a result of this case, there is growing interest in how tips to Crime Stoppers tips are processed, and how rewards are paid if a tip leads to an arrest.
"All tips to Crime Stoppers are always anonymous, said Crime Stoppers Executive Director Gordon Bassham. "Tips are either phoned in to 316-267-2111, sent by text message to CRIMES (274637), or entered on the Crime Stoppers Website, www.wsccs.com. When each tip is received, the tipster is given a tip number since Crime Stoppers never asks the name of the person providing the tip. Special software strips all phone calls and text messages of Caller ID information, and the IP address of the computer from which the tip was sent. Each tip, regardless how it is received, receives this individualized number."
Bassham said tipsters are then told to periodically check back with Crime Stoppers about the status of their tip using only their tip number. If that tip results in an arrest, information about the case then is presented to the Crime Stoppers Advisory Committee at its monthly meeting. At each meeting, the committee reviews all tips and determines the amount of the reward to be paid for each separate tip.
"The next time the tipster checks in with Crime Stoppers, said Bassham, "they are then told the amount of their reward and asked to go to a local bank at a specific time on a specific date where they claim their reward in cash. All rewards are paid in cash in order to protect the anonymity of the tipster."
However, not all rewards are collected, Bassham said.
"For instance, in 2010, the Crime Stoppers Advisory Committee approved rewards totaling $8,350, yet only $5,580 in rewards were claimed. In 2011, approved rewards totaled $3,325 while only $425 in rewards were claimed. In 2012, the committee approved rewards totaling $9,055, yet only $1,585 of that amount was claimed.
"We feel most people call Crime Stoppers to report information on crimes and criminals because they want to make our community safer and more secure," said Bassham.
"It is very heartening to know that so many people in Sedgwick County clearly understand the need to help put bad people behind bars." Crime Stoppers of Wichita/Sedgwick County is a division of the non-profit Wichita Crime Commission. It was founded in June, 1980.

Some liberal commentators and voters are so insulted that Hillary Clinton gathered support in Texas and Ohio that they have said that if Hillary Clinton is the nominee, they will simply stay home and let John McCain win.
They say that Hillary has so disappointed them with negative campaigning against Barack Obama that they are simply fed up and will opt out of the process. They say her acts are "tearing apart" the Democratic party, not that the Clinton-Obama contest has energized and brought new life to the debate over what it means to support Democratic values.
This is the gift of liberals. They snit like no one else. And now that it's not a sure thing that Barack Obama will be the candidate, they are in the corner pouting, as they did over the Swiftboat ads. If the "Super Delegates" throw their support to Hillary, they'll... they'lll ... they'll ... just hold their breath until they faint.
If disappointed Democrats take their gloves and balls and go home and John McCain wins, it goes without saying that the man who has promised to keep troops in Iraq for a hundred years if necessary will do so for four years at least. The Supreme Court will extend its respect for human life to frozen embryos and pregnant 13-year-olds will stay pregnant -- because it will teach them a lesson. More states will adopt the death penalty and shorten in the interval between conviction and execution because that pesk exonerating evidence almost always takes years to emerge. McCain won't appoint activists to the Supreme Court if any of the nine judges who will be over the age of 70 by 2009 retires. He has a solid record of voting for the likes of Robert Bork. That 3 a.m. call to the White House will be followed by a call from the White House at 3:15 to gather the lawyers before an act of war unsupoprted by a Congressional vote.
According to a radio host much favored in my house, the Democratic party is a house divided against itself -- and it's all because Hillary Clinton can't play fair. "I don't want my party to win this way," she said after the Texas and Ohio primaries. "And she just can't be the nominee. She can't. The numbers don't add up. If she is, the ends don't justify the means and we have to fight back."
Whoa, doggies. Who's the opponent here?
If wounded Dems make good on their threats, who really loses?
Is that obvious?
In the unlikely event that Hillary Clinton really is the candidate and Barack Obama does not urge every Democrat and sane Republican to vote for her, who will really be guilty of deep-sixing the party? Would Hillary Clinton do the same thing and subvert her pary by urging her broken-hearted supporters to turn away from the greater good?
You know she wouldn't.
She's a lady.
Something deeper
Many (including so many young people) are Obama supporters largely because they see a possibility for a different kind of politics in this country. I certainly agree with you that it is crucial to elect a Democrat in November, but I also completely understand the despair that it might be only the old politics (attacks, cover-ups, Super Delegate wheeling and dealing, an ad campaign rather than a true expression of thought) that can win in this country. I do know what you mean about "snit," but this despair is not "snit." The reaction I hear is less "if it's not my guy, I'm not voting" than it is "if this is the only politics this country offers, what's the point?" Yes, age teaches us that there is still a point -- if only because the United States still has such power to cause harm in the world and it is our obligation to do what we can to lessen that threat -- but my heart is completely with those who feel we have to insist on a politics better than this.
Better Than This
Judith, I agree that the hope you speak of is what's driving so many Obama supporters, and even some Clinton supporters as well. I'd suggest that this is a good thing, even if it turns out that the kind of paradigm you suggest doesn't actually work in the real world of electoral politics. Obama's candidacy has gotten people interested and involved who have never been before. Even if he loses (which I doubt, considering the delegate arithmetic), many of these people will stay involved in the aftermath, and will work hard to change the corrupt nature of politics in a gradual way. What I'm saying is that, while many will drop out upon being disappointed by what they perceive as a victory of politcs-as-usual, lots will stay and try to work from within. This happened to a young Republican turned idealistic Democrat named Hillary Rodham in the late '60s, remember, and also to a callow youth turned community organizer in the '80s named Barack Obama.Huntington Sharp, Red Room
Making the Possible Real
I, too, admire "working from within." The essential difference I see is that Obama is appealing to what's best in us, while Clinton is playing -- through innuendo and negativity -- to our fears. Did you see the segment on 60 Minutes last Sunday in which she responds to being told that some voters think Obama is Muslim with language like "well, he says he's Christian and there's no reason not to believe him," "there's no basis I know of not to believe him." She speaks neither to the view of religion as a personal choice, to the truth that Muslims are as patriotic as any other group, nor to the fact that Obama's chosen religion is Christianity. Instead she plants seeds of doubt. The most encouraging aspect about the process so far is that there are so many who are sick of doubt and fear and instead are hungry for a fierce hope we work toward together. I hope -- within the system or without -- those who have been so moved will insist on a vision and practice of polis more positive and inclusive than the one we now have.http://www.cbsnews.com/sections/60minutes/main3415.shtml (then scroll to the "All Eyes on Ohio" video).
It seems at this point, that Hillary Clinton becoming the Democrats nominee without intervention of the Superdelegates is basically an impossibility. If Barack Obama is the leader in pledged delegates, and the Supers decide to openly subvert the will of the people, my despair will not be because I am a sore loser.
People are voting in this election who have never voted before, people are interested in politics who have never been interested before. If HIllary Clinton wins, despite losing the pledged delegate count, it says to these people, in no uncertain terms, that they were right all along. Their voices never mattered, no one was ever listening. They may as well have just stayed home.
A generation of voters without any hope or faith in the democratic process would be almost, if not quite as, damaging to this country as a McCain Presidency.
Ben Feldman, Red Room.
Never mattered
Ben, I agree that if Clinton manipulates the superdelegates, or the Michigan and Florida delegations, to get the nomination, it would be bad in all the ways you say. However, I think there are a lot of Obama partisans, even voting veterans in swing states, who wouldn't vote for her even if she wins "fairly" (which, as you say, seems impossible), and I think that's just as damaging. For them to think that their participation "never mattered" is sad and shortsighted. I think that kind of mulishness comes from the emotional strategy Obama has used to be as successful as he has. In the long run, playing to the heart rather than the head carries the higher potential of blowing up in your face. That has happened to the Democratic congressional leaders in the wake of the 2006 election, and could very well happen to Obama when he inevitably fails to fulfill his acolytes' bottomless need for Change. This is what happened to Jimmy Carter in 1980.
Huntington Sharp, Red Room
Thank you for the historical reminders.
I'm lucky I am a Hillary supporter. If she wins, my head wins; If Obama, my heart. I think there a quite a few of us Hillary supporters who feel this way.
But If Mr. Obama wins the nomination, I would be worried about the Carter-esque backlash should he he not make real a fraction of those enormous dreams.
Heart and Head
Guess I see this "heart and head" dinstinction as a false one. My head is more impressed with Obama's clarity of focus than with Clinton's say-what-she-thinks-she-needs-to approach. My heart feels for her as a person. My heart is moved by Obama's vision of the world we have right before us if only we claim it. My head is impressed by Clinton's will and determination. Although I'd certainly vote for her should it come to that (as I would for just about any Democrat at this point), neither my heart or my head would be happy about it.
Hi, Judith
In the Chinese culture, the organ of thought and feeling is the stomach. I guess my stomach wants the best of both Cinton and Obama. I am voting with my stomach that needs to be daily filled, thereby ending the heart/head battle taking place within me.
Head and Heart
I too think the head/heart dichotomy is false. What's bothered me about Obama's campaign is that, even though he is clearly a man with a formidable intellect, he plays to people's emotions rather than their brains. It reminds me of Ronald Reagain in 1980. It feels just as manipulative to me as Clinton's "say-what-she-thinks-she-needs-to approach," and even more facile. But then, I never expect candidates to do anything but what they feel they need to do to win. That's what the game's all about, and always has been.
Anyway, I like Clinton's balance between heart and head, and as a feminist myself, I'm inspired by the symbolism inherent in her campaign. (Which isn't to say I don't have serious issues with parts of her record; that's the dark side of being the "experienced" one.) But, like you, I will vote for the Democratic nominee in November, but I will do it happily.
Huntington Sharp, Red Room
Forgive me, but where I come from, a lady doesn't mock the dreams and aspirirations of the people whose votes she is seeking. Yes, if she manipulates the process and becomes the nominee, I'll vote for her. But she lost my respect when she stood up in Providence and mocked those of us who aren't in the mood for her old style politics of fear. (It's 3 a.m., the phone is ringing; I should feel better because she used to sleep next to the man who had to answer the phone for eight years?) I don't think so.
More on Lady
I'm with you, Rosemary. Besides, my favorite words on the subject of "lady" are the ones attributed to Mother Jones: "God made women, but it took the Rockefeller gang of thieves to make the ladies." Are you on Red Room now? Welcome. Your Unafraid of the Dark is such an important and wonderful book. And certainly one that speaks to the "hope" I hear Obama talking about.
Hillary's 'win' in Texas
As reported by the Associate Press, Obama actually ended up winning the most delegates in Texas, by a count of 99-94. Combined with the fact that 119,000 Texan Republicans voted for Hillary in response to conservative talk show hosts' requests that they do so, I think we can see that it was a false victory. The same can be said about a number of victories in various states in which her campaign relied upon falsities and manipulations to garner votes. Not very lady-like in my opinion. If Hillary should become the nominee, there is no basis for assuming that Obama would be less likely to unify the party than Hillary would, certainly not by examining each candidate's behavior throughout the campaign.

Neisha Crosland is known for her textile designs with a chic, modern aesthetic; her designs combine exquisite forms with clever colour palettes.
Crosland has created a collection of rugs for The Rug Company that reflect her effortless style and masterful sense of shape and form. The designs play on the differing textures of wool and silk to fully complement the understated designs whose simple organic and geometric forms work beautifully in a range of interior styles. Influences for the collection include a beaded necklace, alluding to the feminine nature of her designs. The simplicity of the forms and the play of light and dark in each of them translate beautifully into the scale and texture of the rugs. Crosland recently added to her existing collection with Rosa and Spider hand knotted wool and silk rugs, as well as Razor, Pyramid Trellis and Moorish Circles which explore the qualities of hand woven contemporary tapestry rugs.
This rug is entirely handmade, using a special weaving technique. The background is knotted by looping directly around the warp and weft, giving a flat but highly tactile finish. The silk motif is knotted in a soft short pile, which gives the pattern unique definition. We use only the finest natural yarns; the Tibetan wool for its softness and durability, the fine silk for its delicate lustre that enhances the design of the rug. The result is a unique hand knotted contemporary rug of extraordinary beauty, which will itself become an heirloom to be treasured for years to come.

Plot Summary
A stylish, twist-filled film noir, THE SQUARE centers on an adulterous couple whose scheming leads to arson, blackmail and murder. THE SQUARE is the first feature from Australian stuntman-turned-director Nash Edgerton and his brother Joel who co-wrote and stars in the film. Escaping the monotony of a loveless marriage, Raymond Yale becomes entangled in an affair with the beautiful and troubled Carla. Ray's moral limits are tested when Carla presents him with the proceeds of her controlling husband's latest crime. This is their chance: Take the money and run. If only it were that simple. The seed is planted and Ray, fearing he will lose his love, engineers the plan. Hiring the professional arsonist Billy becomes a fatal error, and the plan goes horribly wrong. Alarm bells sound and suspicions are raised but, miraculously, the dust looks to settle. After all nobody knows. Then the first blackmail note arrives. The couple's nerves are tested as both Carla's husband and the mystery author threaten to throw open their secret. With the blackmailer's deadline approaching, they are going to find out just how far they are willing to go for love.

Fresh: Turns a humdrum backwater into a black hole of crime and punishment.
Fresh: A well-made and entertaining descent into a black-comic hell.
Fresh: The string-along, bad-to-worse nature of The Square affords a distinct, if sour, sort of satisfaction. Yet its construction is a thing of considerable soundness.
Fresh: The Square calls to mind the skin-tight dread of the Coen brothers' Blood Simple. If that movie remains the more rigorous cinematic achievement, The Square is a more richly ironic pleasure.

Today Walton's heirs--two sons, a daughter, a daughter-in-law and two nieces--are worth at least $90 billion, making them the richest family in America. The Waltons are so rich that they have more than double the dollars of the second richest family in the U.S., the Koch clan, who command a fortune of at least $40 billion.
The four Koch brothers are the sons of Fred C. Koch, who invented a method of converting heavy oil into gasoline. Each son inherited a stake in Koch Industries when Fred died in 1967.
Charles and David bought out William and Frederick for $1.1 billion in 1983. William and other family members soon sued for more, sparking a legendary fraternal feud. The fight was finally settled in 2001.
Today Koch Industries is America's second-largest private company by sales, with products ranging from fabrics to fertilizer. Charles and David each own 42% of Koch Industries and are vastly richer than their brothers.

"great overall, you get what you pay for"
4.5 starson by davaalPros: cheap, ease of use, voicemail online, call forwarding - lots of features
Cons: customer service sucks, goes out along with lights or cable
Summary: Pros:
i've had Vonage for over a year and i like it. i like that i can forward calls directly to my cell phone. it allowed me to have a home phone number to give to utilities and employers and people i dont like - but still answer it on my cell phone. i set it to ring my cell immediately, but then goto voicemail after 30 seconds. that way i could ignor the call and let it go to home VM or send it to my cell VM. i talk on the home phone and then forward it to my cell as i walk out the door. I can adjust my voice quality. i have it running behind my router rather than in front of it per the instructions, so it doesnt dominate bandwidth. I talk on it and play halo 2 online while my girl surfs the net with no problems. i can see how bandwidth it might be a DSL issue. I set up a phantom number so my mother could dail locally and still get me on my cell.
i'm killing my service because i dont want to run my home security system thru it. when the power goes out or my internet goes down (damn you time warner) my home is defenseless. my power brick burned out and i sat on the phone 35 MINUTES to finally get a hold of someone in pakistand or india. he promised that i would receive a new brick 2-day male. well, its been a damn month. i cant even set my damn alarm. so i'mma have to get the smallest Baby Bell package i can find. UGH. i really like it too.

Cannot install any Linux OS on new ThinkPad...about to return it :/ (self.linux4noobs)
submitted 1 year ago by reddituser780
I just bought a Lenovo ThinkPad T430u laptop with Windows 8 pro pre-installed...my god do I hate this OS, but I need it for professional reasons. I also got it without a CD/DVD optical drive, which up til now was the only way I'd ever installed linux.
First, I tried wubi, which I soon found does not work with Windows 8 due to UEFI issues.
I also tried installing using a USB key I made with unetbootin. I tried both using the automatic download feature of unetbootin and then with a independent downloaded .iso file. No matter what, the computer hangs after the linux bootloader, just with a black screen or the bootloader screen itself freezes.
I have looked into installing using a virtual machine, but from what I can understand, you cannot do this such that you can boot your new partition from outside the VM.
I have disabled secure boot, as well as give Legacy priority over UEFI, in the BIOS, and I am still at a loss as to how I can get Linux running on this machine outside of a VM. It would also be nice to know if this is a problem with the hardware or the BIOS, so that I could make sure to exchange it with a machine that will actually work.
I'd heard Lenovo was very compatible with Linux, but I'm not finding that to be the case.
tl;dr - Can't get a LiveUSB running, can't use Wubi...how can I get linux on this machine??
[–]weeble42 10 points11 points12 points 1 year ago
Sounds like you're running into classic UEFI issues more than anything else.
Since you mentioned Wubi, I assume you're using Ubuntu. Did you read over the docs here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI
Are you trying to install 32 bit Ubuntu or 64 bit? If you're trying to go with 32 bit, you're probably not going to get anywhere.
Did you get the model with the NVidia GT620M card instead of the Intel? Maybe you're bumping into the Nvidia "thing" where you have to boot with the Grub option "nomodeset"?
That's all I can think of off the top of my head. I've got Linux (openSUSE) running on a UEFI system, so it's definitely possible to do.
If you have to use Windows 8 for some things, you can sanitize it a little with Start8 from Stardock (commercial package... $5 and worth the price), or Classic Shell (open source and free)
[–]reddituser780[S] 3 points4 points5 points 1 year ago*
Yes I have read that page. As I mentioned, I turned off secure boot and switched so that Legacy would get priority over UEFI mode. I cannot even get into the "Try Ubuntu", since I get a problem with "File: \ubuntu\winboot\wubildr.mbr" when I boot in with Wubi. I cannot get to the Ubuntu bootloader with this method, although I have gotten that far (and no further with a USB key)
I am using 64-bit versions, although I have tried everything with 32-bit versions as well. I have also tried putting arch on a USB, to similar results.
I got a model with the GT620M, so I am looking into 'nomodeset' right now. Hopefully this helps...
Thanks for the program recs, I will definitely check them out. Thanks a ton!
EDIT: Still getting an indefinite hang from a Kubuntu liveUSB, even after setting the 'nomodeset' option in GRUB.
[–]weeble42 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago
So.... dos your edit mean.. you've managed to get it to boot the Kubuntu LiveUSB?
KDE4 is pretty awesome by the way :-)
[–]reddituser780[S] 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago
No, there's still a hang after GRUB. Still can't find a solution :/
Are you installing the latest Ubuntu? I haven't used unetbootin for a while, but last I used it, the built in iso download feature was rather.. dated. For UEFI support on Linux, you're going to need a recent edition of Ubuntu.
Have you tried a LiveCD of any other distro? As a test, grab the openSUSE 12.2 KDE Live CD. Write it the USB, and try booting. If it works, then you know it's not the laptop specifically, but how Ubuntu "talks" to the hardware. If it fails as well, you know it's more than just Ubuntu being quirky.
Had the same problems with Arch USBs. I'll try suse, and see what happens.
Right, I missed that. Hmmm.. odd since that laptop is known to work with various Linux distros.
[–]beachdrinking 4 points5 points6 points 1 year ago
Some manufacturers (escpecially Lenovo) offer their laptops without a preinstalled OS. At least in Germany, I don't know if we get special treatment. If Microsoft sells Windows 8 without hardware, that would be what I'd go for, even if it's more expensive.
And I know this isn't really helpful, but I think it's important to show laptop manufactureres that this kind of restriction is unacceptable.

I think they do that in Europe because of the Microsoft anti-trust lawsuit.

[–]szb 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
Have you followed the general principles on this page?
[–]reddituser780[S] 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
Yes, I have toyed around with the secureboot and Legacy/UEFI options in the BIOS to no avail.
[–]szb 3 points4 points5 points 1 year ago
Could be UNetBootin issues. I've had issues with it since it uses a custom bootloader.
Try another image writing software, like:
[–]a0adf8 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago
Or just write the bootable iso to a USB stick and boot from there:
dd of=/dev/sdd if=ubuntu.iso bs=4M
/dev/sdd being the block device file of the USB stick, which partitions must not be mounted, and ubuntu.iso the iso file that you want "burned" to the USB stick.
I think you can use dd under cygwin, too. Use at your own risk, as it overwrites everything, including the file system.
There's a short how-to on dd under cygwin.
[–]SutoLetihWeht 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
As far as I know wubi installs ubuntu "within" windows and therefore doesn't have to deal with any of the UEFI issues. When windows boots it gets past the UEFI part, then loads its own bootloader which then gives you the options to boot into ubuntu.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
[–]reddituser780[S] 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago

[–]catalinus 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago*
An external DVD unit over USB is something like 30$. There are also some models of USB flash devices that can emulate a CD over USB from the ISO image (is a pretty ugly procedure but I got that working on a Sandisk Cruzer Titanium 16GB)
Obviously you might want to check any bootable USB first on another computer.
On my T420s I have a Linux Mint installed in a true partition for some sort of "emergency thing when Windows goes nuts" (never happened, but I like to be prepared), but the thing that I use 99.99% of the time is a virtual machine (with a virtual disk somewhere on one of the windows partitions) - as long as you have some RAM (8GB is not a bad start, I give about 2 GB to each VM and I can remember more than one instance when I had 3 instances running at the same time) and some free HDD space (my Linux Mint virtual disk in 15-20GB at most, but in theory could expand to 64 GB or so) and you do not plan on doing advanced 3D stuff on Linux you are almost as good as with the separate install - I am using VMware and their Workstation product are well-spent money if you are a business. The downside is that you must be very experienced to get Compiz 3D effects working inside the virtual machine - the upside is that you basically have 2 operating system handy at any time :)
[–]rrohbeck 3 points4 points5 points 1 year ago
Return it.
Only if they lose sales they'll learn.
[–]yoshi314 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago
try some livecd that has uefi support. the cd image can be copied directly onto usb stick.
i know that system rescue cd has such support, and fedora. not sure about other distributions. i think that arch linux also might.
[–]iamalimodriver 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago
I have a handful of these. The only thing I was able to get to work reliably and to work with Wifi (reliably) was ubuntu 12.10. I didn't bother with a USB drive, I have an external USB DVD drive, booted straight from that, installed, no problem. I had to to disable hardware virtualization to actually install the OS, once it was installed I enabled it no issue. Enable restricted drivers and WIFI driver is in the repo. Also disabled UEFI to make all this work too. Good luck whichever route you take.
[–]Arlybeiter 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago
One solution I ran across was to actually boot up with a LiveCD of Linux and completely wipe out the hard drive's metadata before doing anything else. You've already disabled secureboot and used legacy BIOS mode, which is the first thing I would have suggested, but i dunno; maybe it might be worth taking the HD out and installing it on a different system, then transplanting it back in. Is there also an mSSD using intel rapid storage technology in that model?
[–]reddituser780[S] 4 points5 points6 points 1 year ago
Can't boot with a LiveCD -- no optical drive.
Can't boot with LiveUSB -- hangs after GRUB.
It's an SSD -- I don't really want to have to extract my drive and reattach it every time I want a new OS.
Well, shucks.
[–]I-baLL 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago
Have you tried more than one usb drive?
[–]darksim905 -1 points0 points1 point 1 year ago
This doesn't seem too difficult I don't see the issue.
I've disabled secure boot, and tried both Legacy and UEFI. I don't see any more ideas on that page...
[–]darksim905 -3 points-2 points-1 points 1 year ago
Then I don't know sir. It's a shame. I'll take the laptop if you don't want it, I have no bias against Linux or Windows. :D

In the wake of last December's school shooting, Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D-West Virginia) has proposed yet another congressional study on violent video games (he's joined in his effort by Nebraska Republican Sen. Mike Johanns). Such studies are typically accompanied by hearings where members of the World's Greatest Deliberative Body get to lecture and threaten artists and businesspeople in a display of bipartisan backslapping, all for the benefit of national TV cameras that would normally not pay much interest to the Senate Commerce Committee.
Blaming pop culture for America's societal ills has been a staple of hearings for decades, where the First Amendment is usually regarded as an archaic nuisance, parental responsibility is considered an impossible task, and everything from serial killers to suicide to deviant sex gets been blamed on artists whose work seems silly and campy with just a few years of hindsight.
On occasion, devil's advocates such as John Denver, Frank Zappa, and Dee Snider, have been invited to testify on free expression's behalf. They're commonly met with snide insults from lawmakers, who bristle at the mention of the word censorship.
As Congress gears up for another round of scare-mongering grandstanding, Reason TV presents "Sex, Violence and Satan: 6 Unbelievably Dumb Congressional Censorship Hearings."
In 2001 (2:27), the House Committee on Energy and Commerce's held a hearing on Children and Media Violence, where several representatives fretted over the music of Eminem, and Rep. Billy Tauzin (R-La.) offered up an absurd anecdote about how Popeye cartoons caused his young son to commit a wanton act of violence.
In 1997 (3:01), during a Senate Committee on Governmental Affairs hearing on the Social Impact of Media Violence, Sen. Joe Lieberman (D-Conn.) and others spent a lot of time talking about Marilyn Manson, explicitly blaming the band's music for a teenager's suicide and declaring them (along with Tupac Shakur, Cannibal Corpse and Snoop Doggy Dogg) to be the musical equivalent of yelling fire in a crowded theatre. For good measure, Lieberman also castigated Hilary Rosen, then-president of the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), for failing to acknowledge in her testimony just "how terrible this music is."
Also in 1997 (4:09), The Senate Commerce Committee held hearings on the ineffectiveness of the TV ratings system they had recently imposed on the industry. Presented as evidence were clips of Friends and Beverly Hills, 90210, testimony from Rep. Joseph Kennedy (D-Mass.) on how a violent television show gave one of his sons nightmares, and the direct threat ("Don't force us to legislate!") from Lieberman to the TV industry. Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.), most recently seen defending unauthorized bombings of Libya and other foreign countries during his confirmation hearings to become Secretary of State, suggested a "pre-see," where the scripts of all television shows would be "printed in the papers" so people could judge the content of the show before they watched it.
In 1993 (5:34), Joe Lieberman and the Senate Committee on Governmental Affairs took on the scourge of ultra-realistic 16-bit video games and plastic toys. Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, and a Nintendo "Super Scope" were exhibited as evidence. A visibly distressed Lieberman said that the Nintendo game accessory "looks like an assault weapon."
Also in 1993 (6:05), Attorney General Janet Reno responded to mail from elementary school students begging her to end violent programming during the Senate Commerce Committee's hearing on Violence in Television Programming. Sen. Ernest Hollings (D-S.C.) lauded MTV's decision to move its hit show Beaver and Buffcoat (he meant Beavis and Butt-head) to a later time slot. Such action, said Hollings (who admitted he had never watched the cartoon), was evidence of the effectiveness of the hearings "we've been having for 40 years."
In 1985 (7:15), Tipper Gore, the wife of then-Sen. Al Gore (D-Tenn.), Susan Baker, wife of Treasury Secretary James Baker, and several other well-connected "Washington wives," founded the Parents Music Research Council (PMRC). The PMRC used their husband's bully pulpits to hold hearings on the dangers of "Porn Rock."
This most famous of hearings led directly to the "Warning: Parental Advisory" labels affixed to album covers (remember those?) and also featured memorable confrontations between Twisted Sister frontman Dee Snider and Sen. Gore, a passionate defense of the First Amendment by Frank Zappa, extended discussions about Satanism in heavy metal and Dungeons and Dragons, and unintentionally hilarious recitations of lyrics from artists as diverse as Prince, KISS, and scat-rockers The Mentors.

]]>For nearly a quarter-century, Senator Joseph I. Lieberman has been an unmistakable presence in a legislative body filled with colorful personalities and large egos.
But on Wednesday afternoon, Mr. Lieberman arrived in the Senate chamber to deliver what he declared would be his farewell speech.
The senior senator from Connecticut, who is retiring in January after four terms, spoke for some 20 minutes on the floor of a chamber where, at various points in his career, he was an outspoken leader on matters like cultural decency, bipartisanship and the war on terror.
]]>Freshman Democratic Senator Joe Manchin of West Virginia made it clear he wasn't sure if he's going to be voting for President Obama in November, according to the National Journal:
"I'll look at the options," Manchin said this week. The last three years "have made it pretty rough" for his state, he said… "The people in West Virginia, they basically look at the candidates—whatever you're running for, whether it be the president itself, or whatever—[they look at] the performance and the result that's been attained," Manchin said when asked how he will vote. "Right now in West Virginia, these first three and a half years haven't been that good to West Virginia. So, then you look [at] what the options will be, who will be on the other end."
Senator Manchin, up for re-election in November, also claimed the President never called him for a one-on-one conversation, though did not offer whether he ever sought one either."It's not a team sport. You need to go out and work for yourself," the Senator said.
OpenCongress.org counts the Senator's votes as 80% along party lines. West Virginia hasn't voted for a Democrat for President since Michael Dukakis in 1988, and the National Journal notes cross-ticket voting in national elections has declined over the last half century. Senator Zell Miller endorsed President George W. Bush at the 2004 RNC and Independent Democrat Senator Joe Lieberman endorsed John McCain over Barack Obama in 2008. Obama intervened to allow Senator Lieberman to hold his seniority. Senator Lieberman is retiring in November and said he'd make his decision about the Presidential election "in the ballot box."
Will Senator Manchin get his call from the White House now, or is the distance actually something he'd like for now? Joe Manchin first won in a special election in 2010 to replace the late Senator Robert Byrd. Manchin was previously the governor.

Keys to the issue at hand
Keeping that in mind:
Generally speaking, it is always better to clone an existing volume to a new drive than to simply keep moving an older drive from one machine to the next. By cloning, you get the opportunity to change your partition scheme, increase overall storage availability on the boot drive and get the added benefit of switching to a low-hour drive. I used to drag old hard drives to new machines, until it royally screwed up my MDD dual 867. Since then, using firewire target mode and a cloner has made life much much easier and simplified my partition scheme without the need to restore from a backup. |
