Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

Back in 2011, Tom Spina Designs showed off this King Kong-inspired theater collection at Monsterpalooza.
As you could guess, attendees were going ape over the big debut.
Tom Spina Designs does a lot of custom pieces, but this one is pretty impressive. Hand-built from foam, faux wood and stone, the collection includes a Kong TV cabinet and giant monkey paws that double as theater chairs.
If you want to get up close and personal with the collection, contact the company about getting your own ape-inspired set. Otherwise, you can get a better angle on it, as well as the entire construction process, in the video below. [via Neatorama]

The success of a surprise cease-fire between Turkey and PKK insurgents hinges on Ankara granting the Kurds greater autonomy and whether the militant group disarms, says CFR's Steven A. Cook.

Steven A. Cook writes, "As America's new secretary of state arrives in Cairo, it's still not clear the United States knows what it's dealing with."
See more in Egypt; Politics and Strategy
The Egyptian uprising presents a rare opportunity for the United States to resolve the tension between its strategic priorities in the Middle East and its desire to support democratic change in the region. Washington's past approach to aiding Egypt was based on relations with authoritarian leaders who could be counted on to advance the United States' interests. With the fall of Hosni Mubarak and Egyptian efforts to build a more open political system, a policy based on "authoritarian stability" is no longer possible, and the United States is now forced to alter the way it appropriates and distributes bilateral assistance.

Its economy is in terrible condition and state authority is apparently breaking down. It's time to contemplate an intervention by Egypt's military, says CFR's Steven Cook.

Though the results of Israel's recent election point to the creation of a new and potentially more conciliatory government, Steven A. Cook says tensions between Jerusalem and Ankara run too deeply for a single election to make much difference.
Steven A. Cook says, "This is a critical moment in Egypt's transition; Morsi and his colleagues would do well to recognize that, rescind the decrees, and commit themselves to the democratic process. At this point, it is the only way for the Brothers to burnish their revolutionary credentials."

Steven A.

Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi's visit to Iran signals a shift in his country's foreign policy away from Washington's influence, which, paradoxically, could have some positive upshots for the United States, says CFR's Steven Cook.

President Morsi's reshuffling of top military ranks rebalances political power toward the civilian regime but may unsettle minorities who had hoped the military would check the power of the Muslim Brotherhood, says CFR's Steven Cook.

CFR's Steven Cook appears on MSNBC's Martin Bashir to debate the consequences of a possible U.S. missile strike in Syria, as well as the costs of supporting true regime change, as Syria's Bashar al-Assad threatens retaliation for any attack, with Lara Setrakian, managing editor of "Syria Deeply."
The crisis in Syria deepens as reports surface that the government is using chemical weapons against its civilians. Syria denies the allegation and President Obama has not made a final decision regarding military intervention. "There needs to be a signal sent to the international community that the use of these types of weapons are beyond the pale and that there would indeed be consequences as a result of using them," says CFR's Steven Cook on Marketplace.
Hundreds of people were killed in Egypt when armed forces cleared protest camps set up by supporters of ousted President Morsi. CFR's Steven Cook, in an interview on NPR, explains that the recent military crackdown on those protesters can be seen as an attempt by the Muslim Brotherhood to delegitimize the government appointed by the military and their use of violence and martyrdom, increasing sectarian tensions in the country.
Egypt's 2011 revolution marks the latest chapter in Egyptians' longtime struggle for greater democratic freedoms. In this CFR video, Steven A. Cook, CFR's Hasib J. Sabbagh senior fellow for Middle Eastern studies and author of "The Struggle for Egypt," identifies the lessons that Egypt's emerging leadership must learn from the Nasser, Sadat, and Mubarak regimes.

Image manipulation with Fotoxx
Straightening Lines
Fotoxx includes the ability to straighten up sloping lines that occur, for example, when the edges of the subject you are taking a picture of are not parallel to the camera's geometry, such as a tall building. To fix undesirable effects like this, click unbend and then experiment with the values for vertical unbend and horizontal unbend. Fotoxx does not offer a real-time preview. Instead, you must Apply the settings to the image first, and you can then make changes before pressing Finish to permanently apply the changes to the image.
If I had just used the program's special features, it would have faired well – the HDR and panorama features work perfectly, but users would probably appreciate more transparency in the approach. Unfortunately, Fotoxx's basic functions are spartan and the unusual controls are just plain pesky. On top of this, the program could be far faster. If you want to retouch images, stick with GIMP, but if you want to experiment with HDR and panoramic images, check out Fotoxx.

Eastern Iowa Airport Will Be Debt Free in Fiscal Year 2015By George C. Ford, Reporter
CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa - A focus on sound conservative fiscal policy and pay-as-you-go funding of capital improvement projects will enable The Eastern Iowa Airport to be debt free in fiscal year 2015.
Don Swanson, airport director of finance and administration, told the Cedar Rapids Airport Commission on Monday that the last debt payment of $23,390 will be made in fiscal 2015, which begins on July 1, 2014, and ends on June 30, 2015. "It's something that the airport commission has been working on for many years," Swanson said. "In the mid-1980s, bonds were issued by the City of Cedar Rapids to construct a new terminal building. Those bonds were refunded after 10 years and paid off in 2003. "In the 1990s, we had a lot of growth. We used bonds to fund cargo facilities for FedEx, DHL and UPS, and those bonds have been paid off. "The last bond issue was for a fixed-base operator facility for Landmark Aviation in 2003. That was paid off early last year." Airport Director Tim Bradshaw said the airport has adherred to a guideline of investing less than its annual depreciation each year. "This is really a tribute to the sound fiscal policy that has guided the commission and our staff over the decades," Bradshaw said. "We will be able to 'burn the mortgage' when we make our last bond payment." The commission on Monday approved the airport's annual budget for fiscal year 2014, which begins on July 1. It calls for gross revenue of $36.3 million, which is $1.5 million, or 4 percent greater, than gross revenue in the fiscal year 2013. "We're looking for a 10 percent increase in operating revenue primarily due to an increase in enplanements, which we are expecting to increase 2.5 percent in fiscal year 2015," Swanson said. "As enplanements increase, so does operating revenue from concessions, public parking, car rental customer facility charges and passenger facility charges." Airports generate revenue in two ways — through fees paid by airlines and general aviation operators and through income from parking, car rentals, concessions, advertising space sales and rental of buildings. The Eastern Iowa Airport does not receive any city or county property tax revenue. The airport is budgeting gross expenses of $33.7 million, which is $287,366 or 0.85 percent less than fiscal year 2013. Gross expenditures involve operating expenses of $7.4 million, capital expenditures of $13.7 million, capital outlay of $234,200, depreciation of $7.3 million, debt service of $23,390 and operating transfer of $5.1 million. Swanson said major capital projects planned for fiscal year 2014 include the $6.1 million renovation of the public lobby of the airport terminal and $5.1 million for construction of Taxiway E, which will parallel the airport's secondary runway. "The FAA will pay for 90 percent of the construction of Taxiway E," Swanson said. "The terminal lobby renovation is a multiyear project consisting of new flooring, lighting, windows, removal of unused offices, and construction of building canopy. "We expect $3.3 million of federal entitlement funds for that project in fiscal year 2014. We also expect to use our entitlement funds in fiscal year 2015 to reimburse the airport for the cost of that project." Bradshaw said the airport will begin replacing or retrofitting the airport's boarding bridges, which are nearing their life expectancy. "The new boarding bridges will have conditioned air, which will flow into the airplanes," Bradshaw said. "The airlines will not have to let their engines run to provide heat or air conditioning in the cabin. It will help reduce the airport's carbon footprint." Bradshaw said the airport will primarily focus on capital projects involving the passenger terminal and other buildings over the next few years. "With the work we have done to completely reconstruct the airport's primary runway, the southern half of the secondary runway and other projects, the 'air' side of this airport is like new," Bradshaw said. "We need to focus on improvements to the 'land' side of the airport." Conversation GuidelinesBe KindDon't use abusive, offensive, threatening, racist, vulgar or sexually-oriented language.

Another provision in the alternative that could open the smelter by next year states that the special-rate contract with Appalachian Power "must be signed by Dec. 31, 2012, so Century qualifies for full annual tax and fixed cost credits."
"Century needs to obtain all of the benefits of the tax credits and the fixed cost credits in order to restart in 2013."
The Ravenswood plant closed in 2009. Century officials said that, to reopen the plant, the company would need a special rate for electricity based on the changing price of aluminum. The PSC's Consumer Advocate Division had argued against Century's proposal, saying that other Appalachian Power customers would see an increase in their bills.
The PSC's Consumer Advocate Division and the West Virginia Energy Users Group jointly filed a motion for clarification Friday regarding the special electric-rate case.
Among the numerous points made by the CAD and WVEUG, both groups "believe strongly that there should be no reduction in [aluminum] rates until after ratepayers receive a payback of the annual $20 million fixed cost credit."
Appalachian Power also filed a petition Friday for clarification and reconsideration of the PSC's Oct. 4 order. Appalachian Power questioned Century's "exposure to the volatile and cyclical aluminum industry."
Appalachian Power said in its filing that, after reviewing Century's financial position, it "discloses legitimate causes for concern."
"It is reasonable to doubt that Century Aluminum Company, whose financial prospects -- and even survival -- depend on the [changes] of the aluminum market, could offset serious losses resulting from those very same [changes]," the utility company said in its filing.
All parties have 10 days to respond to Century's petition. The PSC's final decision will be decided after those 10 days.

I am still running Land Desktop 3 with Civil Design 3 and Survey 3. There is a Locked version of the Survey 3 service pack 1, but there does not appear to be an unlocked version available on Autodesk's website.

Taking about the ventilation system, the Raidmax Simplex provides one 120mm blue LED fan in the front to light up your front panel, and one 120mm fan in the back to cool your chassis.
Filter Results |
Not a micro ATX casePros: Large case with lots of room. Nice no screw drive mounting system. Quiet fans. long leads from front panel USB/audio. The case I was going to use had leads too short to make it to the rear of the case where the mobo connections were. Cons: None so far. I built the box in an evening and it powered right up. Other Thoughts: I registered the rebate online and will send the form and UPC tomorrow. I hope I don't have trouble like so many others have had. Did you find this review helpful? |
Raidmax ATX-618BPros: Nice case. Cons: 3.5 inch bay is very hard to remove. Very hard to install drive. Did you find this review helpful? |
Doesn't work well with SSDsPros: I bought this case for a budget build and to play around with some case mods. It was $20 after rebate, so I didn't mind drilling holes for two more case fans on the top and bottom. I also cut out a hole for a acrylic side panel to the left of the HDD door and placed two 80mm fans in the side panel in front of the CPU. It was easy to modify this case, which is what I was looking for. Cons: The 2 drive bay with the sata connectors built in didn't play well with my SSD. I tried three difference bay adapters; Mushkin, OCZ and the dual Silverstone one. None of them allows the SATA connection to line up properly, defeating the whole purpose of that HDD door on the outside of the case. I ended up using the other 2 drive bay without the sata connectors built in. Other Thoughts: Not bad for a budget build at $20 but I would be disappointed if I paid more than that. Did you find this review helpful? |
Good Design, Room & RaidMax Service. .Pros: A lot of flexibility and the sliding door / slide-in for Sata Drives is useful. Good size and room throughout the box. Bought to be a server because of the slide-in HDD capability but ended up using it for my primary high-perfomance desktop. Airflow is good as multiple fans (120mm) have a front to rear airflow that encompasses the memory & cpu locations. Cons: Rear 120 mm Fan died after 3 months (see other thoughts). Blue lights. Fancy lights aren't really of any benefit and I had to switch out two card readers until I got one that had a blue light to match the rest of the case. Other Thoughts: A simple email contact to Raidmax and they sent out a new 120mm Fan with no questions asked within a couple of days. That kind of service is what will make me look at RaidMax for my next box. Did you find this review helpful? |
Don't expect rebatePros: Very nice looking case, has lots of cool features. I'd love to have one for the advertised $15 after rebate. Cons: This company doesn't honor their rebates. I got taken for a ride twice, and spent months requesting status updates, with no response. Other Thoughts: They are presently offering a $40 rebate. I would definitely buy this case if I believed they would send me the rebate, but they won't. They might as well advertise it as "free after rebate", because they don't send the money anyway. 0 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Good for the PricePros: Easy to work with. Had no problem using the HDD screwless mounting solution or the DVD screwless mounting solution. Cons: My Case came with one of the green wires for the front panel audio cut at the end where the clip for the motherboard is. I was able to use the Legacy audio but no the HD Audio for the front. Other Thoughts: It was very easy to build with. My Radeon 6850 fit ok. I think is a good budget case. Did you find this review helpful? |
DONT TRUST RAIDMAXPros: Great Case, great build quality. Cons: DO NOT BUY RAIDMAX PRODUCTS FOR REBATES Other Thoughts: 22735. A company that offers a consumer rebate shall allow a 8 out of 12 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Sure, I'd buy it again, but...Pros: Thumbscrews, fans, accessible drive bays. Fast drive installation brackets* Cons: Rebate was only 15 days - missed it. Plenty of what appears to be air filter foam on the front.. but a giant gaping hole in the bottom of the face, so I'm not sure if that was the point. Other Thoughts: I had a tough time finding a suitable place to put my two SSDs. the case comes with two components that hold a pair of drives each and which slide out of the case for access. One of these has a PCB at the bottom that I'm sure works fine for a normal sized drive, such that you can just slide the SATA drive in and it will make the data/power connections. Did you find this review helpful? |
Good for the pricePros: Screw-less design Cons: No cable management Other Thoughts: I prefer bottom mounted PSU's. I got this on sale for about $12 after rebate and coupon. Just got my rebate from Raidmax after about three months. Would recommend this case for a budget build. Did you find this review helpful? |
Pros: way more room than more original order, which was horrible (stay away from apevia). Cons: none Other Thoughts: Make sure you have a power supply with lots connections because this case has two fans and a 4 pin slot for the hdd swap area. Did you find this review helpful? |

Valaika introduced to failure in 2009
Valaika introduced to failure in 2009
By John Fay email@example.com February 27, 2010 GOODYEAR, Ariz. -- You have to learn a lot of lessons to become a big leaguer. Chris Valaika learned one last season that most hot-shot prospects never think they'll have to deal with. "I learned how to fail," Valaika said. Valaika, a 24-year-old infielder, hit .235 with six home runs and 36 RBI in 266 at-bats at Triple-A last year. Mind you, the season before Valaika combined to hit .319 with 18 home runs and 81 RBI at Single-A Sarasota and Double-A Chattanooga. He won the Chief Bender Award as the Reds' top minor leaguer that year. His previous two years in the system were similar. Valaika, a third-round pick in 2006 out of UC-Santa Barbara, had won gold medals as a member of Team USA at the World University Games and the Pan-Am Games before the Reds drafted him. He went into last year as the fourth-rated prospect in the system by Baseball America. He was a can't-miss guy until he missed badly last year. It was humbling. "It was the first time I really struggled bad," he said. "It was about making adjustments. I was getting by on talent alone. I had to learn how to be a baseball player and understand what was happening. In a weird way, I think it helped me." The frustration got the best of him. He broke his hand hitting a water cooler and missed five weeks. "I think everyone has those moments when it gets away from you," he said. "It gave me a chance to sit back and observe, something I might not have been able to do if I was playing. I was kind of too close to the problem." Valaika hit .161 before the injury and .260 after it. His best month was August when he hit .318. Triple-A is a big adjustment. "I think it was just a combination of things, guys being veterans in Triple-A, having an idea of what they're doing," he said. "I'm sure it's ever more so in the big leagues. If they find a hole, they're going to keep exposing it until you make adjustments. It's cat and mouse." Valaika did not play Winter Ball. "I took the winter off and got to clear my head a little bit. I'll go into the season, having an idea, a clue. Now, I think I can make adjustments and ride that wave and eventually get out of it." http://news.cincinnati.com/article/2...ailure+in+2009 |
Re: Valaika introduced to failure in 2009
I have liked this guy all 3 times times I've seen him in person. I know small sample, but he commanded the strike zone well and hit the ball hard almost every at bat. I think he could be a decent 2B option if we don't extend Phillips.
Re: Valaika introduced to failure in 2009
Valaika is a dark horse, IMO, as a middle infielder. In AAA this year, it wouldn't suprise me to see him go 315/350/450. He has a history of struggling a bit one season, then really slugging at that level the next. In Louisville's lineup, he'll hit between and in front of some really, really talented mashers, thereby improving his numbers even more.
If he could play SS well, I'd love him. As is, he's likely to play most of his games at 2B, blocking Frazier slightly. But he's likely to be a better defender at the keystone spot than Frazier, so Jocketty may prefer him as a starter there (moving Frazier to the DeRosa supersub role). |

Valaika's silly injury a blessing in disguise
Reds prospect has improved since punching cooler last May By Mark Sheldon / MLB.com 03/06/10 7:25 PM EST GOODYEAR, Ariz. -- Frustrated in May by his lousy start to the 2009 season at Triple-A Louisville, infielder Chris Valaika went back to the dugout and punched a water cooler in passing. It proved to be one costly punch since Valaika wound up with a broken hand and missed six weeks on the disabled list. "It happened and didn't hurt for a couple of days afterwards," Valaika said. "I played and it was starting to get sore. It was obviously my fault." People have fits of anger that many would take back if they could. This pugilist exchange with the inanimate object, however, might have actually helped Valaika's career in the big picture. At the time of the injury, Valaika was batting only .161 in 23 games. He improved to .260 in the 72 games after his activation and batted .235 overall with six home runs and 36 RBIs, but only a .271 on-base percentage. "When you're so involved, you're almost too close to the problem," Valaika said. "It might have been a blessing to kind of back up, take some time off and actually observe and watch the game happen instead of scrambling. It gave me a month off and it helped me learn about myself and the game. Hopefully it will help make me a complete player." Until 2009, Valaika's trajectory was rapidly speeding upward. Drafted as a shortstop in the third round in 2006 out of the Univ. of California-Santa Barbara, he hit the ground running offensively. At rookie-level Billings, he set a Pioneer League record with a 32-game hitting streak and batted .324 in 70 games overall. By the end of 2007, he was already in high Class A. Although he struggled at first, he came back much better the following season and earned his promotion to Double-A. Overall in '08, he batted .317 with 18 homers, 81 RBIs and a .363 on-base percentage, earning the Chief Bender Award as the Reds' Minor League player of the year. Valaika entered '09 as the organization's fourth-best prospect by Baseball America. There was only one thing missing from that stellar resume -- a real down-in-the dump, miserable letdown season where he wasn't the can't-miss kid. "I think it was learning to fail," Valaika said of last season. "A lot of guys go through failure. It was good for me to do. I never did that in pro ball or college. To actually have it happen was very humbling. I think it helped me as a player. I learned from it, and I know if something like that were to happen again, I can ride it out and know how to make adjustments. Before, I was just going on talent alone. "I learned not to take it too seriously. It's our job and our career, but it is also just a game. You have to respect it. You go through it without failing, everything seems easy. Then it will slap you in the face." It's a lesson that can't really be taught by any coach or manager but at some point, players need to learn how to cope with not performing well. "That's very important," Reds general manager Walt Jocketty said. "I think it's a big part of the development process and maturing. Homer [Bailey] did that. They have to feel some sort of adversity. It's best to do it in the Minor Leagues before they get to the Major Leagues and figure out how to deal with it." Valaika is on the 40-man roster this season and back for his second big league Spring Training. But there have been some alterations to his situation. For starters, he's been playing more second base than shortstop in camp drills. A shortstop his entire career in college and pro baseball, he played 18 games at second base last season for Louisville. The rise of shortstop prospect Zack Cozart, possibly to Triple-A, has prompted the shift of Valaika to the right side of the infield. "I know one thing. Cozart is a shortstop," Reds manager Dusty Baker said. "I like his actions at shortstop. If you're going to play both of them, you might have to play Valaika at second base, so they can both play. Everybody comes up mainly at shortstop, that's where they put the best athlete and best player." "As long as I can stay on the field and keep hitting, wherever they need me, I'm ready," Valaika said. "Nothing is set in stone. They said to be good at both and the more I can play, the better." Addendum -- the more Valaika can hit, the better. It will be critical that he rebounds from 2009 to show that he warrants a big league call-up sometime during the season. "I think I can go into it with a clear head," said Valaika, who was 2-for-2 with a run scored in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Indians. "Last year, I was coming off of a big season before. I wanted to prove to myself I deserved this and I belonged here. This year, I think I can go back and understand the game and ride that wave. If I get off to a good start, great. If I get off to a bad start, just ride it out and learn how to play." http://cincinnati.reds.mlb.com/news/...=.jsp&c_id=cin |

T-Mobile coverage question
Couple questions here, guys.
I'm out in school here in Iowa City. When I check T-Mobile's HSPA+ coverage maps, it seems as though T-Mobile doesn't cover me out here. So (using Straight Talk), I figured I was stuck using Straight Talk AT&T sim.
Fast forward to today and I find out that "i wireless" offers "4G" HSPA+ (42mbps) throughtout most of Iowa, my location included. I looked into i wireless and see that they're using T-Mobile's towers.
So my first question: Since i wireless uses T-Mobile's towers, does that mean Straight Talk will have access to the same towers and offer the same 4G coverage?
And my second question: If I went the option of T-Mobile's prepaid plans, will I also have access to those same towers? I just didn't see those towers on T-Mobile's website, so I'm a bit confused here.
I assume yes, but I'm a novice here when it comes to how all this works. - 11-25-2012, 05:50 PM #2
Re: T-Mobile coverage question
I do not actually know anything about "i wireless" other than what is on their web site, but it sounds like they may be local provider that happens to maybe have a roaming agreement with T-Mobile (TM). Straight Talk (ST) uses both TM and ATT for providing service depending mostly on which provides the best coverage in your home area. ST does not have real good coverage maps but you can get a very good idea by going to either the TM coverage and choosing the map for pre-paid service and do the same for ATT looking for "Go Phone" coverage. The very important thing to keep in mind is when using a pre-pay plan they generally do NOT provide roaming coverage for data. What this means is using the TM or ATT maps, if your area is not covered by either a ATT or TM prepay plan, ST is not going to provide service either since they are reselling the pre-paid plans from TM and/or ATT depending on which one you choose or are assigned. I think you have been mislead that i wireless is using TM towers, based on the TM maps, TM does not have many if any towers in Iowa, rather TM is using i wireless towers and roaming on them. But remember, prepaid plans do not roam, only post paid contract TM customers will be able to use the i wireless towers and they will likely be capped as to how much they can use per month. Hope this makes sense!
Based on the ATT Gophone map it looks to me like ST using an ATT sim is the way to go for Iowa City but you need to study these more to be sure. - 11-25-2012, 06:59 PM Thread Author #3

Dear Editor:
When I hear "Taps" played at funerals or military bases at the end of the day, it makes one stop and remember all the sacrifices generations have made to let us live free. I'm glad Cathy Meskel is playing "Taps" every day, but I want to set the record straight about the origin of "Taps."
Taps began as a revision to the signal for extinguish lights (lights out) at the end of the day. Up until the Civil War, the infantry call for extinguish lights was the one set down in Silas Casey's (1801-1882) Tactics, which had been borrowed from the French. The music for "Taps" was adapted by Union General Daniel Butterfield for his brigade (Third Brigade, First Division, Fifth Army Corps, Army of the Potomac) in July 1862.
As the story goes, General Butterfield was not pleased with the call for extinguish lights, feeling that the call was too formal to signal the day's end, and with the help of the brigade bugler, Oliver Willcox Norton, wrote "Taps" to honor his men while in camp at Harrison's Landing, Va., following the Seven Day's battle. These battles took place during the Peninsular Campaign of 1862. The call, sounded that night in July 1862, soon spread to other units of the Union Army and was even used by the Confederates. "Taps" was made an official bugle call after the war.
The highly romantic account of how Butterfield composed the call surfaced in 1898 following a Century Magazine article written that summer.
On the surface, this seems to be the true history of the origin of Taps. Indeed, the many articles written about Taps cite this story as the beginning of Butterfield's association with the call. Certainly, Butterfield never went out of his way to claim credit for its composition and it wasn't until the Century article that the origin came to light.
There are, however, significant differences in Butterfield's and Norton's stories. It may be that Butterfield did not compose "Taps" but actually revised an earlier bugle call. This sounds blasphemous to many, but the fact is that "Taps" existed in an early version of the call "Tattoo."
As soon as "Taps" was sounded that night in July 1862, words were put with the music. The first were, "Go To Sleep, Go to Sleep." As the years went on many more versions were created. There are no official words to the music but here are some of the more popular verses:
Day is done, gone the sun,
From the hills, from the lake,
From the sky.
All is well, safely rest,
God is nigh.
Go to sleep, peaceful sleep,
May the soldier or sailor,
God keep.
On the land or the deep,
Safe in sleep.
Love, good night, Must thou go,
When the day, And the night
Need thee so?
All is well. Speedeth all
To their rest.
Fades the light; And afar
Goeth day, And the stars
Shineth bright,
Fare thee well; Day has gone,
Night is on.
Thanks and praise, For our days,
'Neath the sun, Neath the stars,
'Neath the sky,
As we go, This we know,
God is nigh.

Rules and GuidelinesThank you for the message. And that is strange, I swear I posted it yesterday. That's odd. I'll have em up tonight.
Sorry about my absence. My girlfriend broke up me. No motivation for a couple days.
My post stays on page 133. Go back there to see your results. Have a safe trip, too.
"The next one??" The heck? I'm still building this one! haha come on dude, I'm not THAT good. I suggest you stay, though. I've introduced you to a lot of story that other players haven't gotten, and characters. The Master are in charge of the Legendary Weapons...
"Couldn't you at least humor my idea."
Yeah I could, but I don't have anything to support it. Your suggested backstory implies that something relatively large-scale happened, when it didn't. I appreciate that you're trying to boost the story, but instead of working your idea in, you should have sent me a message with the idea or posted it as a separate reply so it would go to the message board.
None of the players have a history. You have just been dropped into the action. If you have a history of being a wall guard that experiences an odd battle, everyone else would by necessity have a background as well. If you have a good idea (the monster assault on your castle), send it to me. Seriously, just send me the idea. You should have done that pages ago, because I had absolutely no idea what you were talking about and I was having difficulty trying to keep new, non-sarcastic responses going. How could I give you an answer to a question about an event that, as far as I knew, never happened??

D-backs avoid arbitration with Gerardo Parra, sign OF to one-year deal
The Arizona Diamondbacks announced Tuesday they have agreed to a one-year contract with outfielder Gerardo Parra.
The move means the sides avoided arbitration.
Parra, who spent most of last season as the team's fourth outfielder, figures to contend for a starting spot this season following the trade of Justin Upton to the Atlanta Braves.
Parra, 25, batted .273 with 7 home runs and 36 RBI in 133 games last season. In 2010 he hit .292 with 8 home runs and 46 RBI, but made his mark on defense by winning a Gold Glove for his play in left field.

For the second time this season, University of South Carolina sophomore Jadeveon Clowney has earned defensive lineman of the week honors.
The Southeastern Conference announced Monday that the 6-6, 256 lb. defensive end had the best performance among defensive lineman last week.
In the Gamecocks' 38-17 victory over Kentucky, Clowney had four tackles, including 2.5 for losses with a sack.
Carolina limited Kentucky to just 70 yards in the second half after yielding 173 in the first half.
Clowney's sack came on a 3rd down play forcing the Wildcats to punt.
Kentucky had seven second-half possessions with four ending in punts, two in interceptions and one when the clock ran out at the end of the game.
Clowney also earned the same honor after USC beat UAB at home on September 15.
USC hosts Georgia Saturday night at 7 p.m.
