The Town of Rochester, Massachusetts was first settled shortly after the Pilgrims landed at nearby Plymouth Rock in 1638. It was named for Rochester, England, from where many of its first settlers came. It was later founded in 1679 and formally incorporated as a town on June 4, 1686. At that time the large township included the adjacent seaside communities of Mattapoisett and Marion, along with portions of present-day Wareham.
After losing its coastal industries when Mattapoisett and Marion broke off in the 1800s, Rochester turned its attention to logging and farming, and the rural community still retains some of the farms that began over 300 years ago. Like many farming communities in southern Massachusetts, one of its most popular crops is the cranberry. But there are also some remaining livestock farms including pigs and horses, an example of the latter being the sprawling East Over Farm which is now a conservation reserve.
A large, land-locked community, Rochester boasts an area of 36.39 square miles and directly borders seven adjacent towns include Lakeville and Middleboro on the north; Wareham and Marion on the east; Mattapoisett on the south; and Acushnet and Freetown on the west. Among its many historic landmarks at the centrally-located Town Hall, First Congregational Church, Joseph H. Plumb Memorial Library, and several burial grounds with gravestones dating back to 1707.

It Only Hurts on Monday: Why Pastors Quit and What You Can Do about It
by Gary L. McIntosh, Robert L. Edmondson
Pastors are quitting! Some leave for what they hope will be greener pastures in another church. Some drop out of ministry altogether. Why? The pressures of ministry are such that many pastors spend their days off simply trying to recover. When a fellow pastor was asked how thing were going in his ministry, his wry answer was 'It only hurts on Monday.'
Evidence suggests pastors are moving or dropping out at an increasing rate. The Barna Research Group found that the average pastorate twenty years ago was about seven years in length but had dropped by 1993 to about four years. The authors have researched over 60 ex-pastors and their churches to discover some of the causes of this crisis in pastoral leadership.
Topics include: burnout, professional isolation, inadequate education, unrealistic expectations, resistance to change, poor pastoral accountability, tight finances, personal loneliness, and spiritual warfare. Each chapter concludes with helpful and practical suggestions on what you can do to help your pastor have a longer and more fruitful ministry in your church.

So Ben McLemore has been hyped all season as the best shooting guard by far, and the best overall prospect that should be picked #1 (after Noel went down of course).
I admit, I haven't watched much college basketball outside of my school, and I've only caught glimpses of these other potential lottery picks. Never really got to see Shabazz or Noel play at all. And when it came to actually checking out McLemore, I was always underwhelmed. Box score watching showed that he can score in bunches at a very efficient clip, but maybe I always caught him at a bad time.
In a perfect world, he would be able to go back to Kansas for a year to be the centerpiece of the team, and learn how to be the night-in, night-out go to player. But we all know he can't pass up being a top 2 pick, that would be insane.
So now my question, and I know this may sound homerish of me, but why is McLemore such a better prospect than P.J. Hairston? Both are 20 and 2 years out of high school, with P.J. being only 50 days older. Ben is 6-5, 195 pounds and very athletic, while P.J. is 6-5, 220 pounds and has very sneaky, underrated athleticism. But P.J. is much much stronger than Ben, even guarding power forwards this year, and would be able to match up physically with guys in the NBA.
As for their stats, we all know P.J. was coming off the bench most of the season for who knows why. But if you look at all the games P.J. started and actually got significant burn (the last 13 games of the season) here are his stats:
18.2 points
5.5 rebounds
1.1 assists
2 steals
While Ben's stats as a starter are:
15.8 points
5.3 rebounds
2 assists
1 steal
They are both good rebounders for the position, but it shows P.J. has been a better scorer, while Ben has been a better shooter. However, what good is shooting better when you shrink in big moments, or are afraid to take big shots. That was never a problem with P.J., as he took and nailed big shot after big shot all through the ACC tourney and short NCAA run. I'd also say P.J. is a better ball handler and much more creative and instinctive at driving to the rim and creating offense.
So I'm not saying take P.J. at the #1 pick, because if he's rated at the end of round 1, then by all means, trade back for multiple picks and steal him at the end of the round. But I'm just wondering what everyone sees that makes Ben such a can't miss prospect while P.J. is just ho hum and not on anyone's radar.
Because they are both the same age and height, with P.J. being much stronger, more aggressive, a better ball handler, has more of a take over mentality, and has incredible range as well. Is it because Ben might one day have a light go on several years down the line and turn into a monster scorer? You don't often see the timid turn into monsters. I mean, wouldn't P.J.'s shooting and aggressiveness be a better fit for us then Ben's shooting and non-aggressiveness?
I don't know, which is why I'm asking the question. Convince me that Ben is such a better prospect, and that I'm crazy for even comparing the two

Though Terri Watson specializes in dog grooming, her expertise extends to daycare, overnight boarding, and industry-grade belly rubs. She allows visiting pups to do as they please, whether it's jumping on couches, fetching toys, or napping in a comfy bed. In addition to providing a safe, clean place for dogs to hang out while they wait for their masters to return, Terri strives to help her canine boarders burn off excess energy and socialize with other dogs.
Lisa, along with her staff at Lisa's Little Paws, watches dogs of all sizes during doggie-daycare sessions or overnight boarding. The staff takes pooches outside to the swimming pool and sandbox on nice days or plays music and movies to entertain them indoors. In addition to boarding, Lisa's Little Paws also offers grooming services and a boutique.
Advanced surgical suites, an underwater treadmill for physical therapy, and doctors highly knowledgeable in the field of orthopedic care. Though this may seem like a list of features found at a major city hospital, it actually belongs to Packerland Veterinary Center. Offering state-of-the-art pet services that range from routine vaccines to advanced cancer care, owner Chanda Holschbach and her team of dedicated veterinarians draw from an arsenal of advanced medical equipment that includes digital x-rays, , dental gear, and surgical tools used for hip replacements. With access to an in-house laboratory, the forward-thinking center also provides pet-patients with cutting-edge treatments, such as stem cell therapy and therapeutic laser treatments.
Grooming specialists, meanwhile, keep four-legged pals looking and feeling fresh at the center's on-site grooming studio, which they outfit with individual kennels and a fully-equipped bathing area.

Adventure Travel Consultant
New Zealand would have to be my best holiday. It is such a beautiful country and I have so many wonderful memories. It is also home to the adventure capital of the World ﻗ Queenstown. The activities you can do in the ﻗLand of the Long White Cloudﻗ are never ending: from tramping on the stunning Milford Track and whale-watching in Kaikoura, to immersing yourself in the Maori culture and taking a heart-stopping leap at one of AJ Hackettﻗs bungee jumps ﻗ New Zealand has it all!
The next country I would love to visit is China. I have always been fascinated with the culture, the people, the food and the countryﻗs rich history.
My best travel tip? When travelling by yourself, make every effort to talk and befriend as many people as you can. Youﻗll find travel buddies, information on places to visit/avoid, and youﻗll make friends for life.

How can I get Jessica Alba's facial remedy, my wife wants me to print it off for her.
I love Ellen Generes......her show is the funniest in town and she brings in the A-List actors.
I'm sure I am not the only one that feels this way...but I just love when the cameras capture Ellen and Portia together. The look in their eyes just reminds me of what true love is all about. I think she should appear more often...it only takes a second of tv time to see the love they have for each other. Don't you agree???
I have to watch your shows a day after they air. Cause im stuck at work all day. Hilarious, too funny, ellen cracks me up and motivates me to do something positive all the time.
Your underwear model "Mike" has an amazing body but he could look sexier with a different hairstyle. Put some glasses on him and he'd look like Clark Kent. Rid the glasses and yuppie hairstyle and he'd look more like Superman. Spike that hair or mess it up a bit.
I really wanna come too one of your shows. I'm a big fan of you. But too bad I live in dearborn :| thanks though.

X Login via XDMCP over anything !
eXodus 9.0 can do this with ease. It's got really nice XDMCP (not to mention SSH) support. (Unfortunately, it doesn't have Apple's really nicely accelerated Xquartz server, so I don't use eXodus anymore.)
XDMCP/XDM support (or lack thereof) is really one of the major weaknesses of Apple's X11.app compared to other X11 implementations, whether they be on other Unices/Linux or other Mac-based products such as eXodus. Something else that stinks - it seems like Apple likes to drop things from 3rd-party releases that are still useful, even on a Mac. The 10.3 version of X11.app drops a lot of documentation - in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/doc there's only a bunch of HTML files (in .../html) now - compared to, say, XDarwin 1.1, where there used to be a whole raft of stuff, including XDMCP documentation:
I have no clue why Apple dumped all this documentation when they released their own version of XFree86 4.3.0 in X11.app. (That said, doing XDM is still tricky - even if you read the xdm(1) man page and get it fired up properly on your remote Mac, there are still gotchas - one gotcha I can recall is trying to connect to an XDM server at work over our VPN, but finding that the remote XDM server was trying to route the return packets to the original local IP address rather than the VPN-assigned local address, which wasn't working - we were blocking all outbound connections to port 6000 with a destination IP address outside of our Class B address space. Apparently the XDMCP packets being sent from the local end were tagged with the "real" IP address instead of the VPN-assigned local address. So the return packets went off to never-never land and the XDM connection failed ... ) |

NORWICH, CT - Connecticut Tigers starter Clemente Mendoza, who came into the game with an earned run average of 7.88, held the State College Spikes to just two hits and no runs over eight innings to earn the win as the Spikes collected just three hits total and fell, 5-0, on Thursday night at Dodd Stadium.
State College (14-13) received singles from Walker Gourley in the first inning and Miguel Mendez in the sixth against Mendoza. Matt Curry extended his streak of consecutive games with a hit to 12 with a ninth-inning single against Connecticut (14-13) reliever Antonio Cruz.
Mendoza (2-3) struck out seven and walked two, and allowed more than one baserunner in just one inning. Mendez's sixth-inning single, followed by a walk to Adalberto Santos, put runners on the corners with two outs. However, the Tigers starter came back with a strikeout of Curry to end the Spikes threat.
Zack Dodson (0-2) started and drew the loss for State College, allowing three third-inning runs on four hits and three walks in four innings total. Dodson also struck out five, matching his career high as a professional.
Connecticut jumped out in front in the third thanks to a double by Alexander Nunez, followed by Matt Perry's RBI single and a two-run single by James Robbins later in the frame. Robbins collected a total of three RBIs, and Perry went 3-for-4 on the night.
Friday, the Spikes and Tigers meet in the final game of their three-game series at Dodd Stadium, with first pitch set for 7:05 p.m. State College will send right-hander Quinton Miller (0-0) to the mound for the third start of his minor league rehabilitation assignment. Miller threw four scoreless innings to begin a 3-0, shutout win for the Spikes over the Vermont Lake Monsters this past Sunday. Connecticut will counter with right-hander Patrick Cooper (1-1), making his fourth start of the season after being picked in the 14th round by the Tigers out of Bradley University in 2010.
Fans can catch all of the action on the Spikes Radio Network and flagship station 95.3 FM 3WZ starting at 6:50 p.m. with the Spikes GameDay Show live from Dodd Stadium.

please don't think me rude but, i'd like to decline. everything i have to say about the matter has been and will be in the books. anything else would be the imposition of authorial intent and I'd much rather assume you my co-conspirator rather than dry erase board. Or something. Metaphor sorta got away from me there at the end.
thanks for reading and thinking about it all the same.

Just two quick questions.
I'm a big GBV fan and was wondering how much of a hand you had in the "back to the lake" video (it's excellent by the way) or if you had a hand it at all? I could be getting things confused.
Also, I met you at C2E2 earlier this year (you're extremely nice and thank you for personalizing my books) and I noticed you had on some pretty kickass shoes, they were yellow and gray trainers. I'm looking to purchase new shoes and was wondering if you could recall what brand or name they were?
Sorry if both those questions come off as odd. Love your comics, looking forward to your Defenders, and I promise that I will try again with Casanova (I own the first trade and every time I try to read it I feel that it's just a little too smart for me or maybe out of my comfort zone, but I won't give up. Promise.)
a big hand. i'm even in it in a few shots.
they're part of the livestrong line from Nike. i put my on fat yellow laces on 'em, though.
i promise it's not! it's just silly. CASANOVA, i mean. You know how in, like, FERRIS BUELLER or whatever, he could address the camera in one moment, then be in a scene the next, and then shoot the camera a wink, then be in three scenes without acknowledging the camera, then there'd be scenes he wasn't a part of and couldn't possibly know were happening, even though he was seemingly aware of his audience, and all that? And how it never ONCE bugs you when you watch it, you just totally go with it? CASANOVA is like that, in intention, anyway. Just go with it.
Alternately, i'm here to answer literally any question you might have.
and? thanks.
Awesome. It's quite good.
Thanks, on top of excellent comic writing, you also have excellent choice in footwear.
Okay, that makes a ton of sense.
I should also clarify, that it was the first comic I've ever picked up that wasn't a marvel book, I've never even read a DC book (nothing against them just always been a Marvel fan, never really branched out) so I promise it was just me struggling a bit to go outside my own comic reading box.
I'll remove all distractions and dive in tonight.
Thanks for taking the time to answer my questions.
So far I'm up to the fifth chapter. I'm enjoying it a lot more this time around, I honestly think that I've just needed to be in the right mood and to make sure that I didn't get distracted. I would've finished it last night, but I have to get up at 5am for work and didn't want to read it while being tired.
I have a feeling that the second I finish the trade I'm going to instantly regret not finishing it the first time.
Thanks for the input everybody, it helped. I already contacted my comic shop this morning to get all of Gula and have the first two issues of avaritia set aside for me to pick up this weekend.
You will not be disappointed, once LUXURIA clicked I read through GULA in a weekend.

Unlike many other introductions to GEDCOM, this text is not about the technical details of the GEDCOM data format, but about basic facts and real-world issues.
GEDCOM is an acronym for Genealogical Data
That name is an unfortunate misnomer. If you knew nothing but the name, you would probably guess that GEDCOM is some kind of communication protocol, but it is not. GEDCOM isn't some language through which genealogy applications talk to each other. A few such languages do exist, but GEDCOM isn't one on these. GEDCOM is not about data communications at all, it is just a file format for data exchange.
Unlike many other introductions to GEDCOM, this text is not about the technical details of the GEDCOM data format, but about basic facts and real-world issues.
GEDCOM is a data file format for the transfer of genealogy data. The idea is
that you can transfer data between two genealogy application by exporting it from one application into a GEDCOM file and then importing that GEDCOM file into the other application.
There are several reasons why, in actual practice, GEDCOM does not fully live up to that ideal.
GEDCOM is a de facto standard for transfer of data between genealogy applications. GEDCOM is not a de jure standard managed by some official standards body. There is no de jure standard for genealogy, but almost every
genealogy application supports GEDCOM.
There are several alternative specifications, but none is as widely supported.
Users that switched between the first few genealogy applications had to print their data out their data from the old application, and then rekey all of it into the new one. No one had very big databases yet, so that was doable, but it was also error-prone and cumbersome. Nobody enjoyed rekeying their data, and many early adopters had years of research on paper, so their databases grew quickly.
Soon, several genealogy applications supported direct import from competing
products. This is easiest for the user, so even today, many genealogy applications support direct import from several competing products.
However, the direct import is generally limited to a handful of major products,
while there are literally hundreds of genealogy applications on the market. It is impractical for any vendor to support them all. And even if direct import from a particular product is supported, that support is unlikely to include a recently released version of that product.
Several genealogy software vendors started talking about a standard for exchanging data and one of them created GEDCOM.
GEDCOM soon enjoyed widespread support among genealogy software, but that is not because it is the best standard for genealogy data, but merely because it was the first one.
Once several major vendors supported it, every new genealogy application had to support it.
GEDCOM was created by the Family History Department of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS), an organisation that has an interest in genealogy for religious reasons. The LDS is one of the earliest genealogy software vendors; they started selling their application, Personal Ancestral File (PAF) in 1984. PAF 2.0 was the first application to support GEDCOM.
The LDS owns and officially maintains the GEDCOM specification, but the LDS has been remarkable inactive in its role as keeper of the standard since the release of GEDCOM version 5.5.1.
In some sense GEDCOM is perfect.
We tend to think of GEDCOM as genealogical data format, but to the LDS it is a religious data format, a format to exchange data between databases they maintain for religious reasons.
That GEDCOM has shortcomings as a genealogical data format, is because the LDS is not primarily interested in genealogy, but in recording religious rites performed for their ancestors.
Practically all genealogy applications support GEDCOM, but that still does not mean that you can expect a flawless transfer of your data by exporting your data to a GEDCOM file from one product and then importing that GEDCOM file into another product.
The GEDCOM specification is far from perfect. There are various known errors and unnecessary limitations that should have been fixed immediately, but the LDS refuses to fix or update the specification. The most unbelievable shortcoming is that the GEDCOM specification still does not provide a standard for any other partnership type than marriage.
Vendors are allowed to extend GEDCOM to add support for genealogical data that standard GEDCOM does not support, but other genealogy application may not support these extensions.
The combination of whatever idiosyncrasies and shortcomings that product's GEDCOM files have, and the GEDCOM extensions a product uses is known that product's GEDCOM dialect. Vendors do try to support each other's GEDCOM dialects, but at the same time generally do not bother to document their own GEDCOM dialect.
So, some problems that users encounter are inherent in limitations of GEDCOM
specification itself, but many problems are caused by the low quality of vendor's GEDCOM implementations.
The GEDCOM specification allows several character sets to be used.
A common problem with old genealogy applications is that they do not support the character sets that they should support,
which limits their ability to import GEDCOM files correctly or in fact import them at all.
Another common problem is that implementations provide incomplete support for the GEDCOM standard. In practice, many applications support no more than the application itself uses. A common shortcoming of many genealogy applications is that they allow just one name per individual, while the GEDCOM specification allows more than one.
On import of a GEDCOM file, a genealogy application should produce an import log, a simple text file that provides log of any issues encountered during the import.
What makes many of the GEDCOM import limitations worse is that many genealogy
application do not bother to make an import log, or are not honest about the application's limitations.
Some vendors will rather lie that your GEDCOM file is wrong than admit to a limitation in their product.
Even with an honest import log, it can be difficult to understand what went wrong.
Without an honest import log the average user is completely unable to judge how well the import went.
GEDCOM does support multimedia. However, this was only added to GEDCOM after several applications had already decided on their own approach. Although the current standard has been around for some time, transfer of multimedia between applications remains problematic, not in the least because the standard is insufficient.
There are two main issues.
One is that the multimedia files must be transferred along with the GEDCOM file,
but that the standard does not specify any format for packaging all the files together, leaving the user to manage the file transfers themselves.
The second problem is that the specification does not specify where multimedia files should be stored with respect to the database or GEDCOM file;
in practice GEDCOM files contain full directory paths that are unlikely to match those of another application on another system.
When it comes to GEDCOM support, vendors still tend to focus on GEDCOM import rather than GEDCOM export. Vendors focus on the ability of their application to import GEDCOM files created by other applications. Many vendors even proudly list all the applications that they believe their application to import perfectly in their feature list.
However, what is more important to you as a user is the quality of the GEDCOM export, and how well other applications support the product's GEDCOM dialect. After all, if no other application can import those files, you have been locked into that product, unable to switch to another.
Some vendors have taken so many liberties with the GEDCOM specification, that what their application produces isn't GEDCOM at all. Family Tree Maker is rightly infamous for producing an FTW GEDCOM dialect so awful, that it seems deliberately incompatible.
Even worse, several versions of Family Tree Maker default to creating ostensible GEDCOM files that are not GEDCOM files, but FTW TEXT files. The product's dialog boxes are dishonest about this in a way that makes a user who does not know better believe that FTW TEXT is real GEDCOM. The current owner of Family Tree Maker, Ancestry.com, should release a free FTW TEXT to GEDCOM conversion tool, but still has not done so.
One approach to solving some of GEDCOM's limitations that has been
successful is the development of common extensions; a collection of GEDCOM extensions common to a group of products.
GEDCOM 5.5 EL (Extended Location) was developed by a group of German genealogy vendors in collaboration with the Verein für Computergenelaogy e.V. (Society for Computer Genealogy).
GEDCOM 5.5 EL is supported by many German genealogy applications and is freely available to other vendors to implement in their product.
Another approach to deal with GEDCOM's limitations is to create another, better standard, to replace GEDCOM.
Many GEDCOM alternatives have been proposed.
Most have been forgotten.
None enjoy wide industry support.
The GEDCOM Alternatives article provides an overview.
Two current developments are FHISO and GEDCOM X.
BetterGEDCOM, an informal grassroots project to create a GEDCOM replacement has spawned the creation of the formal Family History Information Standards Organisation (FHISO). FHISO aims to develop modern standards for genealogy data.
Late in 2011, FamilySearch's GEDCOM X project was uncovered. FamilySearch officially introduced it early in 2012. The name is likely to cause confusion; like GEDCOM XML, GEDCOM X is not a new version of GEDCOM, but another GEDCOM alternative.
GEDCOM is a standard for transferring data from one genealogy application to another, but because of inherent GEDCOM limitations, incomplete specifications, unsupported dialects and poor implementations, that transfer may be less than perfect. On top of that, many applications do not even provide an import log to help you figure out how well the transfer went.
In practice, basic data such as names and vital events transfers just fine, and that is already a large improvement on a world without any standard for genealogy data. A lot of other data such as notes and sources generally transfers successfully as well. Moreover, GEDCOM dialects of popular products tend to be supported by many other products.
GEDCOM is a data format for genealogical data. It is not perfect, and it is not perfectly supported, but it is the only widely supported standard for genealogy data.
Vendors tend to stress the ability of their product to import data from other products, but to a user, the more important thing is the quality of the GEDCOM files it exports, as that largely determines the ability of other products to import those GEDCOM files. Only when other applications will import the file can you use a GEDCOM file to do what it was designed to; move your data from one application to another.
The GEDCOM ALternatives article provides an overview of the many GEDCOM alternatives proposed over the years.
The hitherto unknown and never officially released GEDCOM 5.6 draft has surfaced.
FamilySearch GEDCOM X project to replace GEDCOM revealed.
Family History Information Standards Organisation (FHISO) officially introduced.
The secret GEDCOM X site has been made public.

and cyberbullying
Regarding "Cyberbullying needs a strong response" (Our View, Feb. 8):
The editorial on a cyberbullying attack of several students who attend Manchester Regional High School rightly commends North Haledon Detective Dave Parenta for his investigation of the incident. I fully agree that such incidents require a strong response.
I would like to set the record straight on the editorial's implication that that Manchester did not respond because school staff had not reported its role in the investigation to the press.
This cyberbullying occurred after school hours by an anonymous person on Instagram. Because it is not known at this point who created the Instagram message, it could very well be someone who is not even associated with the school. In this regard, not only are our students victims, but the school is also a victim of this cruel act.
The cyberbullying was reported to my office the next school day. My office immediately alerted the school principal and the anti-bullying specialist. Consistent with the school's policy on harassment, intimidation and bullying, the specialist commenced an intense and thorough investigation. The principal notified the police, and the school has been cooperating with the police in every way possible.
The editorial indicated that the targeted students had to come to school the next day. What the editorial board probably did not know was that the specialist isolated specific targeted students to ensure their safety. As it could not be ascertained whether the threat came from another student, the students identified were provided adult supervision throughout the day.
Not only have our anti-bullying coordinator, anti-bullying specialist and safety team been trained, but also all administrators, teachers and even the board of education trustees have received training as well. However, as more about this incident becomes known, efforts will be increased to educate students about the impact of cyberbullying.
In addition to considering possible experts in the field, we will also be looking at developing an awareness campaign. We want students to know that it is the position of Manchester Regional High School that bullying of any kind will not be tolerated

IBM's Universal Database
You must have the prerequisite Java Runtime Environment (JRE) level to use the DB2 Administration Tools. For more information, refer to the Control Center README, which can be found in the INSTHOME/sqllib/cc/prime directory, where INSTHOME is the home directory of the user created for the instance during the installation (for example, /home/db2inst1/sqllib/cc/prime). Let me save you some time and take you through the quickest way I found to get the graphical tools running on your workstation. Perform the following steps:
Log on to your workstation as a user with root authority
In order to run the graphical tools, you need to be running at least Java 1.1.7 v3 or later. A JRE is available from the Blackdown web site at www.blackdown.org/java-linux/mirrors.html. For this example, I visited the mirror site at: ftp://metalab.unc.edu/pub/linux/devel/lang/java/blackdown.org/JDK-1.1.7/i386/glibc/v3/, downloaded the jre_1.1.7-v3-glibc-x86-native.tar.gz file and placed it in the /tmp directory. For all the latest information on supported JREs and browsers, go to http://www.software.ibm.com/data/db2/.
Note that you must download the native threads version of the JRE that you want to use. The DB2 Control Center does not support green threads.
Once you have downloaded an appropriate JRE, unpack the file by entering the following command:
tar xvfz jre_1.1.7-v3-glibc-x86-native.tar.gz
Log on to your workstation as the db2inst1 user.
Update your PATH so that your workstation knows the location of the JRE's binary files just installed. Assuming you are following along the example, for Bash or Bourne shells enter this command: export PATH=/tmp/jre117_v3/bin:$PATH; for C shell enter: setenv PATH /tmp/jre117_v7/bin:${PATH}, where /tmp/jre117_v7/bin is the path to the downloaded JRE binary files.
Start the JDBC Applet Server by entering the following command: db2jstrt 6790.
Start a graphical administration tool. For this example, let's start the Control Center using the command db2cc 6790.
The Control Center Sign On window opens. Enter a valid DB2 user that has SYSADM authority on the instance with which you intend to work. For our example, enter the db2inst user ID and the corresponding password. For more information, refer to the "Administration Guide".
Now, you have completed all the steps necessary to configure your workstation for the DB2 graphical tools.
If you followed the steps and considerations that I have outlined in this article, you should have a running copy of DB2 on your Linux workstation, a sample database, a running Control Center and a smile on your face!
Paul Zikopoulos (firstname.lastname@example.com) is a senior member of the DB2 information and development team, specializing in DB2 installation and configuration issues. He has more than five years experience with the DB2 Universal Database, and has written magazine articles and books about DB2. Paul is an IBM Certified Advanced Technical Expert (DRDA and Cluster/EEE) and an IBM Certified Solutions Expert with DB2 Universal Database.

Suddenly Kunitz. PENS WIN.
If you've seen one Pens-Isles game at the Igloo, you know the script.
But that doesn't lessen the importance of getting a win after a tough weekend.
It also doesn't lessen the impact of a Chris Kunitz. Kunitz had a solid game against Washington, and he was equally as impressive last night. It is clear that during his scoring slump, Kunitz was not 100%. Because when he is healthy, he contributes in a lot of ways that add up.
The Pens now have two games left before the Olympic break.
And lost in everything is the fact tahat the Devils are in full collapse mode.
They lost again last night, and the Pens are closing in.
Another side story developing is the approaching roster freeze.
It seems Shero is going to give himself time to make decisions over the Olympic break.
Per our good friend Brian Metzler, who got a look at the scouts' seating chart on Twitter:
Someone said Mark Madden was talking about some guy from Nashville coming in.
We must have missed that in between Linkin Park songs.
Mellon Arena
Listen to the game at [WXDX]
Know The Enemy:
The Igloo gates will open early tonight.
The arena will open at 6PM.
There are still some student rush tickets available.
The Islanders broke a seven game losing streak with a 4-3 shootout victory against Nashville yesterday.
They're currently 24-27-8 on the season and sit in 13th place in the Eastern Conference.
The Penguins are 35-22-2 and have 72 points.
Ottawa also has 72 points, but they've played one more game than the Pens.
The New Jersey Devils have 74, and they lead the Atlantic Division, but they've played one fewer game.
TWITTER CONTEST: New York Islanders
The prizes for the rest of the way to the Olympics are free entries into Rinkotology.
For this one, you're guessing the time and period of second goal of the game.
Don't need tiebreakers.

Amidst the snow, we completely forgot to recognize the winner from the Canadiens game.
Third icing call of the game:
Only one person even guessed the third period:
ANNOUNCING: Rinkotology: 2010 Winter Games Edition
Last year during the NHL playoffs, one of our good friends that we've met since the beginning of the blog asked us to partake in an NHL Playoffs Fantasy game. In the game, you pick one player from each team. The stat categories were simple: Goals, assists, GWG, goalie wins, and goalie shutouts.
The sign-up fee was $20, and it was winner-take-all. The game was run through some websites that let the organizers of the game take everyone's roster and input them via spreadsheets. About 100+ people signed up. Of course our team folded early because we didn't do the right research, but it made the NHL playoffs a little more fun.
We wanted to compound upon this. During the summer of 2009, we began planning a fantasy game that was centered around the Penguins. This game was gonna go above and beyond the Penguins' current "Extra Attacker."
One thing we love to do is give away shit.
And it has always been our dream to give away a shitload of money to someone.
Of course the one thing that shut everything down in the planning stages of the Penguins Fantasy game was that, for the longest time, we believed Fantasy Sports was gambling.
Huge mistake.
After some phone calls and extensive hours of research, it turns out Fantasy Sports is not gambling.
From a fact sheet about the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006:
"The typical fantasy sports league is not "gambling" because winning is based predominantly on skill and knowledge about the featured sport and its athletes, not on chance. In other words, fantasy sports leagues challenge the participants to exercise judgment-making skills similar to a coach or general manager. To make sure that gambling businesses do not try to cloak their gambling in the clothing of "fantasy sports," UIGEA places limits on how prizes may be awarded in fantasy sports leagues, if a participation fee is charged for the game. Beyond that, most fantasy games are free and any game that is free is not "gambling."
So, after that, the wheels started to spin. We halted production on our Penguins fantasy game and started to focus on a fantasy game for the NHL playoffs and the Olympics. We joined money leagues for Fantasy Football and Hockey at CBS Sportsline and ESPN as part of our research.
We began to formulate ideas on something that would be fun, something that would be lucrative for people, and something that would be easy. Fantasy sports is a grind for an entire season. We like that dynamic, but some people like to "set it and forget it", to set up their team and let it ride for the duration of a fantasy season. And we have created that.
We were able to find an online merchant that supports Fantasy sports (a huge win for the Fantasy community), as well as secure The Pensblog, LLC as a legal business. We were even able to get a 1-800 number for customer support.
The result of all the hard work is Rinkotology: 2010 Winter Games Edition.
Who else to turn to than Anteepa Web & Marketing Solutions to make this a reality? We've really hamstrung them, using our usual M.O. of waiting until around the last possible minute to kick things into gear. They're working pretty hard.
We wanted this up and running today, in fact. But in reality, it's actually good that we're anticipating a launch date closer to the Olympics, since injuries to NHL players and other Olympians will adversely affect the game (see: uncertainty surrounding Ryan Getzlaf). And then we also have to worry about Russia's bullshit taxi squad that is being rumored.
Here's how the game works:
1.) Before the Olympics begin, you will pick 8 forwards, 3 defensemen, and 1 goalie.
Only one player can be chosen from each country.
EX: For Team Sweden, do you pick Henrik Zetterberg or Henrik Lundqvist?
For Canada, do you pick Brodeur, Crosby, or even Drew Doughty?
2.) You will also be choosing one player to be your Captain and two players to be Assistant Captains.
Goalies cannot be chosen for either.
Captain's points are worth triple value.
Assistants' points are worth double value.
That is the groundwork of the game. Very simple.
The points system will become available when the website is launched.
3.) Tiebreaking scenarios are as follows:
a). In the event that users have the same exact team, the Gold Medal game will be a special one-game playoff, where each user would pick 5 players from each team.
b). In the event of a tie in which teams aren't exactly the same, the tiebreaker will be goals, then assists, then lowest goals-against average, then game-winning goals that your entire team/goalie has accumulated throughout the Olympics.
b1.) If a winner cannot somehow be determined by those criteria, we will be aware of it before the Gold Medal game and set up the Gold Medal game as a one-game playoff.
b2.) In the event that USER "A" pushes himself or herself into a tie in the Gold Medal game (i.e. USER "A" is behind in points and has players accumulate points in the Gold Medal game while USER "B" does not have players in the game), we will enact tiebreaker "b" detailed in this section. If, somehow, no winner can be determined from that, we will break the glass and institute the emergency tiebreaking scenario.
b3.) Emergency tiebreaking scenario: USER "A" vs. USER "B".
Whichever team scored first in the Olympics wins.
EX: USER "A" has Jamie Langenbrunner, and he scores in the first game of the Olympics, giving USER "A" his or her first team goal.
USER "B" has Alex Ovechkin, and he scores in the second game of the Olympics, giving USER "B" his or her first team goal.
USER "A" wins.
But what are the chances two goalies will have identical goals-against averages?
That is why this is the emergency scenario.
4.) $10 Entry Fee
1st place -- $500 and Championship Belt
2nd place -- $400
3rd place -- $300
4th place -- $200
5th place -- $100
5.) Tips: Given the nature of this contest, picking the right combination of players is obviously key.
But your goaltender may very well end up being your dark horse.
6.) We will be holding a contest similar to this for the upcoming NHL playoffs, as well as having a Penguins-exclusive bi-weekly or monthly game in place for next season.
Penguins Want All-Star Game At Consol Energy Center & More
The Pittsburgh Penguins have submitted a bid to host the 2011 NHL All-Star Game.
"The new Consol Energy Center will give us the opportunity to bring many such events to Pittsburgh," Penguins president David Morehouse said. "We think it can help make Pittsburgh a destination for big national and regional events."
The game was in Pittsburgh in 1990 at the Igloo.
Mario Lemieux did okay in that game.
That third goal made Wayne Gretzky cry.
Digging Out
Don't even know where to start. Power has been off because Luke Ravestahl is a jackass and mother nature just had her period on everyone's face. Mario should run for mayor if he can't buy the Pirates.
More snow coming. Someone is probably facing elimination if that happens.
Not a whole lot of positives this weekend. The only good thing to happen was Orpik calling Jizz a baby.
Speaking of Orpik, from NBC.com:
Notice the caption. Candy Man? Really? Thanks to PUCK HUFFERS for the tip.
Go Pens.
P.S. Jeff Carter almost beats out PennDot for jobber of the week:
Not sure what is more shocking.
The hit, or Jeff Carter actually knowing where the defensive zone is.
What a scumbag.
Blown Lead. PENS LOSE.
Definitely a tough loss, but what a hockey game.
You have to assume these two teams will once again meet in the playoffs and what a series that will be.
Ovechkin is as obnoxious as they come, but he delivers.
He's a dangerous player.
NBC definitely got what they wanted from this game.
Ovechkin had three goals and an assist.
Crosby and Staal had two each.
It's tough to blow a 4-1 lead but the hockey fans inside of us still enjoy an exciting game.
The Penguins fans inside of us vomited a bit when the 5th goal went in.
Verizon Center
Listen to the game at [WXDX]
Know The Enemy:
Before we talk about anything else, this is from Ted Leonsis' blog on Wednesday:
We have won 11 in a row. A franchise record.
We are now first in the East. We are TEN POINTS ahead of New Jersey who is in second place.
We are first in our division, 25 points ahead of our nearest competition.
And we are now FIRST in the NHL with 82 points. Click here and see.
We are first in the NHL in goals scored. And first in a bunch of other team and individual stats.
For just today we have arrived.
We don't have miles to go before we sleep.
We have arrived. Savor it. Enjoy it.
Please for just one day. I beg of you. No negative emails. No negative vibes.
Tomorrow all bets are off. We can worry, we can vent, and we can go back to our individual dark places. But for 24 hours I declare a no fly zone on negativity and unhappiness.
We deserve our success. We are what our record says we are. At least for one shining moment.
Ok back to work. Go Caps. I hope you are as proud as I am.

No the airlines are struggling to get by with high fuel costs and low airline fares. But yes they do need to keep their PENSION PLANS! They used the money when they needed it but now are giving it to the federal government to pay. It is always the UNION and Employees in general that get hit hard. NEVER the Executives or their Board of Directors.
At Least AA tried to not throw their debts on to debtors when other airlines had no problem doing that. Employees @ AA have been paid decent wages longer ... way longer than the airlines that immediately went belly up. I work for one that did and the aftermath has not been pretty for many.
Good Luck American Employees. I feel sorry that you hae to go through this too.
