Remarks by Senator A.S. Mike Monroney December 18, 1958 at Testimonial Dinner for HON. BROOKS HAYS at Washington, D.C. Tonight we are paying tribute to a modern-day hero, who in temporary political defeat has won a lasting spiritual victory -- and a place in the hearts of millions of Americans. We are here because we know Brooks Hays for what he is — a man who will not leave the path which conscience sets. His loyalty to those ultimate virtues of love and courage has set a high mark in our political life. A prefabricated sticker may mutilate a ballot, but not this record. It has been my privilege to serve with him since he was sworn in as a Member of Congress in 1943. We sat side by side on the House Banking and Currency Committee. That he had the courage required to be a great Congressman was apparent from the start. My earliest memories of his service -- and his courage -- were in the days of O.P.A. when the great economic pressures of special interest groups plagued our Committee's efforts to hold the line against disastrous inflation. The strife -- and at times the intolerant, unreasoning, inflamed passions of economic avarice — were a small-scale replica of the struggle we now witness over Civil Rights. It was here that I first learned to respect the careful and tolerant approach to legislative problems that Brooks always took. No testimony or demand was so brash or so unreasonable that he would not carefully hear it out. He was ever courteous, attentive, and fair. And having weighed any testimony — he would then follow the dictates of his mind and his heart to reach what he thought was a just and equitable decision. Often, as now, the decisions he had to make were unpopular with those who sought short range goals and failed to consider the nation's ultimate security and integrity. Upon his promotion to the Foreign Affairs Committee of the House -- he approached our world problems with the same fairminded judgment and with the same far-sighted interest in his nation's welfare. This innate fairness and his love of all his fellow men later made him one of our nation's most effective representatives in the United Nations.

- Rays send Gomes down to add fresh arm
- Rays hit road to face division foes
- Maddon manages his 1,000th game
- Bullpen catcher thankful for save
ST. PETERSBURG -- Desmond Jennings left Sunday's game against the A's in the third inning with left knee soreness.
The Rays didn't say when the injury occurred, but it may have happened in the first inning, when Jennings slid headfirst into home to score on a sacrifice fly by Jeff Keppinger.
Jennings made the second out of the second inning when he was thrown out at first on a grounder to short. On the play, Jennings hustled down the line and almost beat the throw.
Elliot Johnson moved to left field to replace Jennings at the beginning of the third inning and Will Rhymes entered the game to play second for Johnson.
Rays send Gomes down to add fresh arm
ST. PETERSBURG -- After the bullpen worked a season-high 8 1/3 innings in Saturday night's 12-inning, 4-3 loss to the A's, the Rays needed a reliever to make room for a fresh arm.
Brandon Gomes was the unfortunate victim, after tossing two innings, his longest outing since doing the same last season on July 29 against the Mariners. After tossing 24 pitches on Friday, the right-hander threw 42 pitches on Saturday.
The Rays optioned Gomes to Triple-A Durham and recalled left-hander Cesar Ramos from the Bulls.
Rays manager Joe Maddon stuck with Gomes for such an extended period because he wanted to avoid using Joel Peralta and Wade Davis. The Rays eventually needed Peralta, who has appeared in four of the last five Tampa Bay contests and leads the Majors with 16 appearances.
Ramos arrived after compiling a 2-1 record and a 1.69 ERA in 12 relief appearances with Durham.
The Los Angeles native anticipates improving on his 2011 campaign, in which he led Rays left-handers with 59 appearances over two stints with the team.
"I am a lot more comfortable with my delivery and I am going to do everything I can to help the team and stay here the rest of the season," said Ramos, who allowed 22 runs, 19 earned, in 43 2/3 innings (3.92 ERA) last season. "The key here is to stay aggressive. I learned [in Durham] how to fix certain things with my delivery where I'm able to repeat it."
Ramos held left-handed batters to a .221 batting average last season, his best career totals, but he knows he must improve on getting ahead in the count to lefties or righties. Over his three-year career, opposing batters have hit .400 against him when they had a 1-0 count, .583 with a 2-0 count and .500 with a 2-1 count.
"I feel like I'm in a better groove now and have a better idea how to approach batters," Ramos said.
Rays hit road to face division foes
ST. PETERSBURG -- After Sunday's game, the Rays will embark on an eight-game road trip against American League East Division foes, including three contests against the Yankees, three against the Orioles and two against the Blue Jays.
The Rays are looking forward to getting some action against division rivals after playing a majority of their games against the Central and West divisions.
"It will be nice to get back into some familiar territory, but it doesn't really matter who we face," said James Shields, who will start Tuesday's contest in New York. "Our main goal is to win each series, no matter who we're playing."
Shields is mindful of the new Yankee Stadium, which has ranked in the top five for the amount of home runs hit since its opening in 2009.
"You definitely have to be careful of the right-field wall, but for the most part, you have to concentrate on their hitters, who are dangerous no matter where you're playing them," said Shields, who has allowed five home runs in 34 innings at the new ballpark.
Maddon manages his 1,000th game
ST. PETERSBURG -- Rays manager Joe Maddon joined an elite crowd by managing his 1,000th game for the Rays on Saturday night.
Along with Maddon, the Angels' Mike Scioscia (1,971 games), the Twins' Ron Gardenhire (1,646) and the Phillies' Charlie Manuel (1,161) are the only other active skippers who have completed the feat with their respective teams. Tigers manager Jim Leyland joined the group on Sunday.
Maddon has compiled a 514-486 record over the course of seven seasons with the Rays, who were 518-775 before his arrival.
Maddon also became the fifth manager in the modern era to have managed at least 1,000 games for one team without ever playing in the Major Leagues.
The others were Earl Weaver (Orioles, 2,541 games), Joe McCarthy (Yankees, 2,348), Jim Leyland (Pirates, 1,716), Danny Ozark (Phillies, 1,105), and Leyland (Tigers, 1,000).
Bullpen catcher thankful for save
ST> PETERSBURG -- Rays bullpen catcher Scott Cursi was grateful Sunday morning, a day after R.J. Boggs, the Rays ballboy in the bullpen, snagged a line drive headed in his direction.
"Yeah, that was a close one," said Cursi, who is in his 14th season as the Rays bullpen catcher. "I kind of sensed it coming towards me, but [Boggs] was there to save me."
In the fourth inning, Cliff Pennington rifled a line drive into foul territory. Cursi was catching for J.P. Howell in the bullpen and the left-handed Boggs, who stands near Cursi as protection for such occurrences, dove to his left to backhand the ball with his glove.
"It was all reaction," said Boggs, 19, who actually has more experience playing hockey than baseball. "I'm used to that type of play in hockey, so it just happened."
Boggs, who is in his first year with the Rays as ballboy, played Little League baseball as a pitcher for seven years, but his main focus has been as a hockey goalie.
After finishing a high school career with the hockey team comprised of players from Sickles and Gaither High School, Boggs has continued working on his craft in camps, most recently in Maine with the Portland Junior Pirates club team.

Big name national retailers take the spotlight on Black Friday as their deep price cuts pull in shoppers in droves.
What about mom-and-pop businesses in Northeast Cobb and beyond that are the backbone of America's economy? When do they get their day?

Pevonia Botanica Neck and Chest
The neck and décolletage (the area from the shoulders to the top area of the breasts) can often be sites of skin conditions and problems. Pevonia Botanica Neck and Chest products address these problems so you can wear whatever neckline you choose without concern. Ultraviolet rays, harsh winds, dry air and airborne pollution can dry and discolor exposed skin, but when they occur on the neck and chest, it can be particularly aggravating and embarrassing. Dry, flaking skin, wrinkles and hyperpigmentation make it difficult to wear tops with flattering necklines without feeling self-conscious.
Use the suite of Pevonia Botanica Neck and Chest skin care products to restore the softness to skin, reduce the signs of wrinkles and clear up some skin discoloration, to give you the freedom to be as daring as you want to be. The ingredients of Pevonia Botanica Neck and Chest creams include antioxidants to protect you from the after-effects of that great tan you got last summer, emollients to attract and retain moisture and hydrate skin cells and botanical oils to repair damage, so your skin looks smooth and youthful.
Additional Pevonia Botanica Neck and Chest Information
A décolleté neckline is only as flattering as the skin it reveals. Aggravating and embarrassing dry, flaky skin, fine wrinkles and discolored areas are targeted and repaired by Pevonia Botanica Neck and Chest skin care products, giving you the confidence to wear the most flattering neckline. These products contain chamomile flower oil as an emollient, to attract and retain moisture to restore and smooth the skin, and botanical oils for antioxidant and cell-renewal properties.
The secret of Pevonia Botanica Neck and Chest products, though, is the Kigelia africana fruit extract. For generations, juice from the fruit of the Kigelia africana tree has been used in folk medicine from Senegal to Botswana to provide smooth, youthful skin on women's breasts. It is only recently that Western scientists have discovered why this traditional lotion is so effective: The extract of this fruit contains numerous secondary metabolites which actively firm the skin, protect against UV rays and have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects! The village wise women really knew what they were doing.
Gently massage a few drops of Pevonia Estebuste Neck and Bust Concentrate until the lotion is absorbed into the skin. The ingredients will firm tissues, smooth the skin's texture, promote cell regeneration and protect against the ravages of UV rays. Follow with an application of Pevonia Restore Neck & Bust Cream, and the Kigelia africana fruit extract, elastin and glyceryl stearate provide firming, smoothing and hydrating effects. Chamomile flower extract improves the skin's elasticity and safflower seed oil relieves dryness without clogging pores.

Customer Raves & Reviews
Military Themed - Army (USA) Save the Date Cards I ordered the cards on a Thursday and received them the following Wednesday. I could not be more happy with the product and same goes for my handsome fiance. We really wanted to let everyone know it is a military (Air Force) style wedding due to how a good handful of the guests are a part of some military branch. We were able to personalize them to the way we wanted but ultimately, I only changed the content of the text and left most of it as it was because I ultimately loved the cards the way they were. I give it a 5 out of 5, definitely worth it.
Very nice card
Military Themed - Marines (USMC) Save the Date Cards The card ultimately came out very well. The color on the people is slightly darker than how the computer showed it, which would have been nice to see in person with an accurate personalized example, but overall I really like them.
Great bang for your buck!
Stunning Outline Save the Date Cards We are doing an elegant vintage style wedding. These fit our personality perfect. I loved the original colors it is shown in so I kept them. I ordered the small postcard which was enough for our tastes. I liked that the envelope is lined too.
Simply Lovely!
Stunning Outline Save the Date Cards My save the dates were exactly as I imagined them, they turned out perfectly and all of my customizations definitely added that personal touch!
Pay attention to size
Military Themed - Marines (USMC) Save the Date Cards I LOVED these save the dates!! They were soo easy to just slip in the envelopes and send off. I got alot of compliments on them from guests as soon as they recieved them in the mail. My only complaint would be the size. They are much smaller than I had imagined they would be. This of course made the font very small.

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. (10/23/13) - You are here: Home » WKU department head completes Eastern Europe expedition
Dr. David Keeling, University Distinguished Professor of Geography and Department Head of Geography and Geology, recently completed an Eastern European–West Asian expedition representing WKU and the American Geographical Society.
The expedition visited Sweden, Corsica (France), Serbia, Belarus, Turkmenistan, Abu Dhabi (UAE), Bulgaria, Kosovo, Croatia and Montenegro, with a primary focus on urbanization, economic change and socio-historical development.
Dr. Keeling gave lectures along the way on the East European city, oil and gas resources in Central Asia, the Balkan conflicts, and the role of transportation and infrastructure in developing regional economies.
Among the 80 participants from across the United States were former S.E.C. chairs, CEOs of Fortune 50 corporations, former high-ranking government officials, heads and members of philanthropic institutions and foundations, and other leaders in higher education, business, and industry.

Navigate the ins-and-outs of Windows 8 with how-tos, troubleshooting, news, and reviews.
If you're craving full Windows 8 on a tablet the size of an iPad Mini, and want a great display, the ThinkPad 8 is one of the best we've seen...but not by much.
Pandora's easy-to-use interface and massive music library make the app a must-download for music fans with Windows phones.
Pricing not available
The slick and easy-to-use design makes Facebook for Windows Phone 8 a worthy free download, but the lack of key features will disappoint power users.
Pricing not available
Microsoft's operating system makes Windows Phone phablets a reality with a new interface fitted for humongous screens, and support for quad-core CPUs.
Pricing not available
At just €130 -- about £105 or $170 -- the Archos 80 Cesium is a wallet-friendly 8-inch Windows tablet.
Pricing not available
The Zone Touch Mouse works as a traditional three-button mouse with the added benefit of the glass touch strip for select Windows 8 gestures. We just wish the touch features were a little more precise.
Microsoft makes an aggressive, forward-thinking, and bold statement for the future of PCs with Windows 8, and vast security and speed improvements more than justify the $40 upgrade price.
As the first "affordable" hi-fi streamer, the Pioneer N-30 puts on a good performance, but the controls could be so much easier to use.
Windows Phone 8 is absolutely worth using, especially if you enjoy a simpler, bolder interface. However, if you need a robust app selection now, stick with the more fully formed Android and iOS.
Pricing not available
The 10-incher is another moderate Windows 8.1 release in HP's latest lineup of slates.

Gov. Dannel P. Malloy is cutting $170 million from the state budget – the maximum amount allowed without requiring legislative approval – in order to combat the state's $365 million projected deficit in the current fiscal year.
The Office of Policy and Management released a nine-page list of the cuts. Some of the biggest items from the list include:
- $33 million reduction in fringe benefits for employees, mostly from the "state employees health services" line item
- $21 million from the Department of Developmental Services
- $7.8 million from the Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services
- $32.2 million from the Department of Social Services
- $14.4 million from state colleges, split between community colleges and state universities
- $18.3 million from the Department of Children and Families
Exactly how the cuts will impact the departments remains to be seen.
"There is no one reason for the projected shortfall," said OPM Secretary Ben Barnes in a written statement. "The sluggish national economy is part of the equation. Revenue hasn't recovered as it has in the past when Connecticut was working to climb out of a recession. The demand for services, particularly Medicaid, remains higher than expected. But we have faced larger challenges than this, and done so responsibly. Nothing on that front has changed."
The full list of cuts are attached to this article.

Business Digest August 3, 2012
Boulder B-cycle opened its 16th bicycle-sharing station at 2880 Wilderness Place, Boulder, near the Boulder Beer Co.
The city of Boulder's sales- and use-tax collections decreased 13.3 percent in June, compared with the same month a year ago, according to the latest report from the city finance department. Boulder collected $7,543,289 in June, compared with $8,709,205 collected in June 2011, according to the report. The collection in June represents sales made in May.
Longmont-based data-storage firm Dot Hill Systems Corp. (Nasdaq: HILL) received three patents that describe innovations to allow organizations to accelerate data protection via faster data snapshots and replication operations. Dot Hill's 83rd U.S. patent, No. 8,185,777, describes technology that eliminates sources of latency when using a separate backup appliance and data-storage subsystems. The technology in Dot Hill's 84th and 85th patents, Nos. 8,204,858 and 8,200,631, work together to create faster data snapshots and make them more accessible. Dot Hill's innovations shorten backup windows through a reset function that is quicker than deleting and creating a new snapshot, according to a press statement from the company. Because the parameters already have been set and can be reused, it eliminates the need to delete old snapshots before creating new ones.
Unemployment rates in Boulder and Broomfield counties inched up slightly in June, according to the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment. Boulder County's non-seasonally adjusted unemployment rate for June was 6.6 percent, up from 6.1 percent in May — the same as the 6.6 percent rate reported in June 2011. In Broomfield, the unemployment rate was 7.7 percent in June, up from 7.5 percent in May. In June 2011, the rate was 7.7 percent. According to the survey of Colorado households, the state unemployment rate increased by 0.1 percent in June to 8.2 percent. The national unemployment rate was unchanged from the previous month at 8.2 percent.
The University of Colorado and Boulder-based Ball Aerospace & Technology Corp. announced that the Total Irradiance Monitor will fly sometime in 2013 aboard the STPSat-3 spacecraft, which Ball built for the U.S. Air Force through an agreement between NASA, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the Air Force. The instrument was intended to fly as a space shuttle Hitchhiker payload as part of a program at CU-Boulder's Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics. The instrument will measure the sun's net energy output or total solar irradiance, continuing a 35-year climate data record that is a key component in understanding Earth's climate system.
Louisville-based Zayo Group LLC will start expanding its fiber optic network along the Front Range and add capacity in Denver, Boulder and Longmont. The expansion will add 521 route miles, which when completed will give Zayo 900 route miles in the greater Denver area.
Engineering and construction firm MWH Global Inc. in Broomfield will sell its MWH Laboratories in Monrovia, California, to Eurofins Scientific Inc. for an undisclosed sum. After regulatory review and approval, MWH Laboratories will become Eurofins Eaton Analytics, named for Dr. Andrew Eaton, a 32-year veteran at MWH Laboratories, in honor of his industry leadership in water-quality analysis and testing. At 34,000 square feet, MWH Labs is one of the largest water-quality laboratory operations in the United States.
Louisville-based Real Goods Solar Inc. (Nasdaq: RSOL) and Gestamp Solar, the photovoltaic-energy division of Madrid, Spain-based Gestamp Renewables, will construct two solar installations — 2.3 megawatts in Pownal and 2.5 megawatts in Williamstown. The ground-mounted solar arrays will be owned and operated by Gestamp and designed and installed by RGS Energy, the commercial and utility division of Real Goods Solar.
Four Boulder County bioscience companies are among the six chosen to compete for a $7,500 cash prize at the BioWest 2012 event to be held Tuesday, Sept. 11, in Denver. Siva Therapeutics Inc., Sophono Inc. and SuviCa Inc., all of Boulder, and Flashback Technologies Inc. of Longmont have been chosen as finalists by the Colorado BioScience Association, a Denver-based industry trade group. Two other finalist companies have been chosen from Fort Collins. - Siva is developing a phototermal treatment for cancer tumors. - Sophono has developed an implantable hearing device. SuviCa is developing cancer-treatment drugs. Flashback Technologies makes a computerized diagnostic test that can detect risks to the body from medical trauma.
Boulder Community Hospital reached an agreement with insurance provider Humana Inc. (NYSE: HUM), to provide members of Humana's commercial plans in-network access to the facilities and services of the Boulder Community Hospital system.
DigitalGlobe Inc. (NYSE: DGI) in Longmont has signed a multi-year deal to provide high-resolution images of Earth to software firm Environmental Systems Research Institute Inc., which will use them in its ArcGIS Online system. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. Users of ESRI's cloud-based mapping and content-management system will have access to DigitalGlobe's Global Basemap, an off-the-shelf product that provides images of Earth's surface at multiple zoom levels. The images include oceans and polar regions.
Boulder-based SendGrid Inc. is partnering with cloud application development platforms Heroku, Engine Yard, Cloudbees, Standing Cloud and AppHarbor. Available as an integrated service within each of the platforms, SendGrid gives developers building, testing and deploying web applications in any programming language an option for transactional email delivery and management.
Boddie-Noell Enterprises has selected Louisville-based Envysion Inc. to provide video-driven business intelligence. Boddie-Noell, the operator of more than 330 Hardee's restaurants, will utilize Envysion to drive improvements in loss prevention, operations and restaurant profitability.

Oh no! This color / product currently out of stock. Order today to schedule building your bag.
Why nearly 30 days to ship out? A personal message from CEO Jim Markel.
In stock orders ship same day if received by 4:00 PM Mountain Standard Time!
Design input from world-class climber Dr. Jean Ellis combined with our parachute-rigging bag-building techniques helped to create for you an expedition bag to take climbing or outfitting gear anywhere. Proven on all seven continents, you'll thank us a thousand times over for the heavy-duty grab loops on both ends and the tough 1050 weight Ballistic Nylon skid plate on the bottom, plus Neoprene Rubber padding for that extra bit of protection.
Storm flap across the main compartment keeps out whatever Mother Nature sends your way, while two full-length side flat pockets keep your flat necessities like maps, light jackets, etc., accessible. The Sherpa is popular with the sheep hunting crowd as you can cram it full of camp equipment and bulky clothing, yet still easily carry the bag backpack style over treacherous terrain.
One of the hurdles with an outfitter's expedition duffel bag this big is carrying it once you've filled it up. The answer? Retractable padded backpack straps hidden inside a false bottom "smuggler's pocket". This allows you six different and convenient methods to carry the Sherpa Jr.
1. Carry it by the top handle.
2. Carry it by both end handles.
3. Carry it with one end handle.
4. Carry it on your back with the retractable backpack straps.
5. Carry it with The Claw Nonslip Shoulder Strap.
6. Hire a real sherpa carry it for you.
Heavy-duty features abound: Dual full wraparound 2" wide nylon webbing compression straps mean your bottom will never tear out. The carry handles also fully wrap around the bag, effectively doubling up the no rip carry strength. Double box stitched seams protect all stress points. Overbuilt 360 degree swivel "claws" will never rust or rip free. Nickel plated hardware more suited to a Mack Truck than an outfitter's bag!
Rectangular shape means you can really stuff this bag to the hilt. The Sherpa Jr. Outfitters Expedition Duffel Bag is sized to fit into the luggage hatch of a puddle jumper, such as a Cessna 182, the most common remote wilderness access aircraft. Now you know why Red Oxx calls it a Sherpa!
Due to high demand, we encourage you to place your order now to get your Sherpa Jr. on our production schedule. Your bag will then be delivered in under 30 days. Like retirement, it's worth the wait.
Dimensions: 27"L x 15"W x 15"H (fits in Cessna 182 storage).
Capacity: 6,075 cu. Inches.
Weight: 6.5 pounds.
Pocket measurements:
"No Bull" Lifetime Warranty.
Designed AND handmade in Billings, Montana USA.
UPS Shipping Time.
Concerned about out of stock items, back orders, in production products and delivery time? - Check out this personal message from CEO Jim Markel.
Witness the birth of your bag and learn about the steps it takes to handcraft your Sherpa Jr.
Meet the thundering herd who build your gear.
Online orders will receive an order confirmation email, a UPS tracking information email and a review request follow-up email eight weeks after delivery. Backorders beyond a dozen days may receive an order follow-up assurance email. Your email address is secure.
Every great bag needs cool accessories.
Sherpa Jr. Trivia: named after Eurasian baggage handlers and porters, commonly used on mountain climbing treks because of their high altitude tenacity and vigor.
Sherpa Jr. Outfitter Expedition Bag Color Translator
Keep in mind: Colors on your monitor will vary from the actual color of the fabric. The only way to accurately gauge a color is to request a swatch.
If out of stock, orders are typically filled within 30 days. Call 1-888-733-6999 or email firstname.lastname@example.com for details
As time rolls a ceaseless course, only the genuine guarantee remains. The mountains will persist, the oceans are bound to endure and Red Oxx will continue to be rugged, reliable, and tough.
To the depths of the Amazon basin to the peaks of the Himilayas, Red Oxx Manufacturing is infallible.
This product is guaranteed forever, be sure to include it in your will.
Red Oxx Bags are handcrafted in Billings, Montana. U.S.A.

Mask-making Software
The current versions of the GMOS Mask Making software (GMMPS) are v0.402, released in June 2013 for Linux and Mac OS X, and v0.22 for Solaris. Version 0.402 contains some significant interface and algorithm changes to simplify the design process, improve slit placement, and provide support for new GMOS detectors and FLAMINGOS-2. Please use the latest version for your OS for your mask designs.
2013 Aug 28 - Version 0.402 was updated with bug fixes related to creating mask designs from catalogs (w/o GMOS pre-images).
How to get the software
The GMOS Mask Making software is supplied as a gzipped tar file, and is available in compiled form for the following operating systems.
Version 0.402 (download)
Fedore Core 14 32/64 bits
RedHat Enterprise 5 32/64 bits
Ubuntu 10 32/64 bits
Mac OS X 64 bits (OSX 10.6-10.8 with Core 2 Duo or newer CPU)
Version 0.304 (download)
Fedora Core 3,4,6 (and compatible)
Fedore Core 14 32/64 bits
RedHat 9.0 (and compatible)
RedHat Enterprise 5.5 32/64 bits
Ubuntu 10 32/64 bits
Mac OS X (OSX 10.4-10.6, PowerPC or Intel with Rosetta)
Version 0.22 (download)
Sun Solaris
RedHat 9.0
Support for Linux and Mac OS X operating systems is included in the same tar file: gmmps-0.402-REL.tar.gz. For Sun OS, or RedHat 6.x or 7.x, please use version 0.22, available here, gmmps-V-0-22-REL.tar.gz. Depending on your browser, right or shift+click to save the file. The gzipped tar-file is about 18MB. The unpacked software requires 60MB of disk space. Some space can be saved by deleting the bin.PLATFORM and lib.PLATFORM directories which do not support your platform.
To use the Gemini Mask Making software, you will also need Skycat installed. Skycat versions 2.6.6 and later will work with the GMMPS 0.22, but more recent versions (0.302 and higher) require Skycat 3.0 or newer. For Linux we recommend skycat version 3.1.2 and this version is required for 64-bit kernels. For OS X the pre-compiled binaries for gmmps-0.304-REL.tar.gz must be used with skycat 3.0.1 while gmmps-0.402-REL.tar.gz must be used with skycat 3.1.2. GMMPS can be recompiled if other options are needed.
In addition, you will need the latest version of the Gemini IRAF package installed in order to create the input object tables.
How to install the software
The installation instructions are included with the released software in the file INSTALL.TXT. If you are using the software under Sun/Solaris, Linux/Redhat, or Mac OS X the installation involves only unpacking the distribution file and setting your path and environment variables as described in INSTALL.TXT. Starting with version 0.303 an install script simplifies the installation process and the setting of environmental variables. Under other operating systems you will have to compile the source code. This requires that you use GNU make.
Note for Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) users: The location of one of the libraries used by gmmps changed OS X 10.5 and this will produce the error message "Error: dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/lib/libstdc++.6.dylib..." when gmmps is run using previous installation instructions. The new installation procedure for v0.303 (and newer) should configure the system properly. For older versions the simplest solution is to add /usr/lib to the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH environmental variable in the gmmps the startup script, i.e.
Note for Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) users: In addition to the change above for OS X 10.5, users of GMMPS v0.302 with OS X 10.6 should add a script called 'skycat' in their path with the following two lines:
/Applications/Skycat.app/Contents/MacOs/skycat $*
This is not needed with GMMPS v0.303 and higher.
Note for Mac OS X 10.7+ (Lion and Mountian Lion) users: Skycat 3.0.1 will not run on OS X 10.7+ (due to Apple removing Rosetta) therefore you must install Skycat 3.1.2. Then you can can install gmmps-0.402-REL.tar.gz.
Note, to use the compatibility chart... you can give the "GMMPS Platform To Use" name to the "setplatform" or "install" scripts, e.g. for Debian 2.6.8 "install Fedora3".
Reported compatibility of Linux distributions with the GMMPS standard platforms:
|Linux Distro
|GMMPS Platform To Use
|Debian 2.6.8
|openSUSE 10.2
|Redhat Enterprise 2.6
|Ubuntu 6.06 (Dapper)
|Ubuntu 9 (Jaunty Jackalope)
|Ubuntu 12
|Fedora 14
|Fedora 18
|Please submit any other platforms that you know to be compatible via the Gemini Help Desk or any other Gemini Contact ...
The Gemini Mask Making Software is built on the ESO/VIMOS Mask Preparation Software, after agreement with European Southern Observatory. The software was modified for GMOS use by Jennifer Dunn (NRC, Canada), Dustin Fennell (Univ. of Victoria) and Craig Allen, Bryan Miller, and Mischa Schirmer (Gemini).

CovCath boys, Highlands girls snare 2A titlesMay 22, 2009
Covington Catholic's and Highlands' girls won the KHSAA Class 2A State Track and Field Meet Friday night.
CovCath scored 67 points, six more than Louisville Central. West Jessamine was another six points back, followed by eight-time defending champion Tilghman with 48.
Highlands eked past Lloyd Memorial, 62.5-61 for girls' honors. Louisville Central had 53, followed by Rockcastle County with 48.
Initial post
It hasn't taken long for some surprises at the Class 2A State High School Track and Field Championships, which are underway at the University of Louisville.
Tilghman's Denzel Powell, the defending champion in the boys' 100, false-started.
Tilghman's DeAudrea Horne, defending champ in the girls' 100, placed second to Abigail Torian of Trigg County — last year's winner in Class A.
Torian clocked in at 12.44 seconds, Horne at 12.60.
Tilghman did pick up a 10-point victory in the boys' 110-meter hurdles. Caric Denson, a junior, defended his title in 15.04, ahead of Louisville Central's Diaz Bolden (15.17).
Johnson Central senior Andy Lewis took advantage of Powell's absence to win the boys' 100 in 10.97. Stephon Robinson of Louisville Central was second in 11.02.
Other early winners include Calloway County in the boys' 4-by-800 relay (8:11.35), South Oldham in the girls' 4-by-8 (9:51.46) and Nathelie Zetrenne of Central in the girls' 100-meter hurdles (15.56). In the latter event, defending champion Sarah McKinney of Rockcastle County wound up fifth.
A West Jessamine sweep
West Jessamine seniors took both the boys' and girls' 1,600-meter runs.
Adrianne Shearer built a 20-yard gap on the field over the first 400 and maintained about the same gap throughout the race. Shearer finished in 5:22.93, with South Oldham's Jessie Murner second in 5:26.11. Defending champ Helen Heines of North Bullitt took sixth.
West's Will Stratford employed a different tactic to win the boys' 1,600. Sitting comfortably off the pace for the first 1,000 meters, Stratford surged with a lap-and-a-half left. He held off Franklin County's Robert Sandlin, 4:27.20 to 4:27.56.
Other boys' winners include Tilghman in the 4-by-200 relay (1:30.22) and Calloway County's Tyrell Willis in the shot put (50-9.25).
Rockcastle County's Samantha Smith won the girls' long jump (17-2.75) and Jackie Stevens of Bullitt East won the discus (111-5). Trigg County's girls swept the 4-by-200 (1:43.68) and 4-by-100 (49.72) relays.
Late events
Anna Goetz was the only individual winner for Highlands, taking the triple jump (35-3.75).
Western Hills eighth-grader Alisha Adair won the 200 (25.26), beating defending champion Horne (25.31) and Trigg's Torian (25.66).
Other girls' winners included: Donnell Nocero (Lloyd), high jump (5-4); Bullitt East's Stevens in the shot (37-9.5); Cheyenne Evans (Boyle County), 800 (2:19.83); Jessica Gabhart (Elizabethtown), 300 hurdles (45.25); Erica Mills (Boyle County), pole vault (9-0); Michaela Hunter (Rockcastle County), 400 (59.33); Tenny Ostrem, Powell County (11:42.37); and South Oldham in the 4-by-400 relay (4:06.63).
CovCath's lone individual title came from Alex Connelly in the high jump (6-4).
Other boys' winners included: Robert Sandlin (Franklin County), 3,200 (9:38.21); R.J. Fields (Harlan County), long jump (22-5); Greg Phillips (Knox Central), pole vault (12-6); Thomas Washington (Logan County), triple jump (45-4); Ken Holbrook (Western Hills), 129-11; Andy Lewis (Johnson Central), 200 (21.78); Stephon Jackson (Louisville Central), 400 (49.88); Thomas Canary (Lexington Catholic), 800 (1:54.94); Chip Clark (Fleming County), 300 hurdles (39.85); Tilghman, 4-by-100 relay (43.67); and Highlands in the 4-by-400 relay (3:26.16).

I know you can't find a single player better than Brady.
Wait Michigan has produced, Benn - no wait he is from Illinois, Mendenhall - no wait he is from Illinois, Baluga - no wait he is from Iowa, Greene - no wait he is from Iowa, hmmm who the hell has Michigan produced since Woodson??Oh yeah they have the great Cato June, Alan Branch, Mike Hart, Chad Henne, Adrian Arrington, Mario Manningham (OK this must be the best since Woodson). Yeah Michigan has a great HISTORY but who the hell cares what happened when guys wore leather helmets, kids care whats going on now and I would go out on a limb to say even small schools like TCU, Boise State, TULSA, etc have more pull recruiting big time talent that is not from the overrated midwest.Hmmm, interesting fact that Miles was offered the job two seperate times, each time making more money than he makes at LSU and the second offer was for more than the first, yeah your sorry school can't even over pay for an alum, thats gotta mean something right??!! Yeah guess your theory that Michigan is all that goes out the window. Go ahead play in your pathetic conference that cannot even count how many team you have in it, play the soft Notre Shame team, lose your typical game to App State and lets see where that get you.Brady Hoke did some impressive things at San Diego State but he left a better program to go to Michigan?? If you don't believe me look at the talent he has at SDSU and look at what Michigan has?? Hell even the so-called great QB is nothing more than a midget playing against slow midwestern boys and leftovers from the south.

Most of these partnership tools were originally developed in the framework of NATO's cooperation with Euro-Atlantic partners through the Partnership for Peace (PfP). However, with the reform of NATO's partnerships policy in April 2011, steps were taken to open the "toolbox" to all partners, across and beyond existing regional partnership frameworks.
From 2012 onwards, all partners have access to a new Partnership Cooperation Menu, which comprises some 1, 400 activities. An Individual Partnership and Cooperation Programme (IPCP) is jointly developed and agreed between NATO and each partner country that requests one. These two-year programmes are drawn upon, among other things, the activities in the extensive Partnership Cooperation Menu, according to each country's specific interests and needs. IPCPs form the basis of a partner's cooperation with NATO. In addition, a myriad of other tools are available to partners, according to the specific areas of cooperation they wish to develop with the Alliance.

Texas second baseman Alfonso Soriano -- headed to his third consecutive All-Star Game, and first with his new club -- officially ended Ichiro's streak by leading all Major League players with 3,466,447 votes when the starting position players for both leagues were announced Sunday.
Soriano was also the top online vote-getter, collecting a record total of 3,056,277 votes at MLB.com.
St. Louis third baseman Scott Rolen was the top vote-getter in the National League, garnering 3,187,710 votes. Rolen is the fourth Cardinal player to earn that distinction and the second in a row, following Albert Pujols last year.
Soriano was traded by the Yankees before the start of this season for Alex Rodriguez, who will join him in the AL starting infield at third base, and Soriano's presence has helped lift the Rangers from also-rans to contention all season at the top of the AL West standings. The Rangers were 44-34 and a half-game behind Oakland through Saturday's games.
"It was great to get the news," said Soriano, one of five Rangers to make the AL roster. "I feel very good. I'm having a lot of fun now and it will be nice to see all my friends."
After consecutive seasons of at least 30 homers and 30 stolen bases for the Yankees, Soriano's pace as a Ranger is just short of that, with 14 homers and eight steals in 78 games. He is on pace for a 200-hit season, batting .292 with 50 RBIs. His glove work has been solid, and he has brought a winning mentality to Texas while solidifying the club up the middle along with converted shortstop Michael Young.
A six-hit game on May 9 and a two-run walk-off homer in the bottom of the 18th inning on June 24 (ending the longest game of this season) were vivid examples of his impact this season -- and of his hold on baseball fans.
Before his return home to Yankee Stadium for a recent series, Soriano took special delight in how the Rangers have progressed since his arrival.
"When a team has young, talented players, there's a chance for that team to make a big move forward," Soriano said. "We've been working hard for nine innings every day and it has been paying off. But we've got to show we can be consistent over the whole season. We have to stay with it and do all the little things if we're going to make a run for the playoffs."
Soriano was the voting leader when the first balloting updates were released in May, and he never looked back. Last year, he was passed in the last two weeks of voting by Ichiro, and wound up finishing second to the outfielder for most AL votes (and fourth overall in the Majors) by a margin of 2,130,708 to 1,850,890.
Suzuki had been the first player, since balloting was given back to fans in 1970, to be the top All-Star vote-getter in each of his first three Major League seasons.
Rolen is the fourth Cardinal to lead the NL in votes, and gives the Cardinals back-to-back top vote-getter claims. Last year, Pujols led the NL with 2,030,702 votes to lead all NL players. Mark McGwire had the most NL votes in 1998 and Ozzie Smith did it in 1987-88 and 1994.

What Makes it Mighty?
Products in category: Breastfeeding
- Safest products for nursing
- Organic cotton pillows and pads
Organic Nursing Pillow - Strawberry Field by Blessed Nest SKU: BN-PW
This organic cotton Nesting Pillow is lovingly handmade in America using GOTS certified organic materials. The pillows are filled with organic buckwheat hulls enclosed in an interior case made of 100% organic cotton canvas and can be spot cleaned and thrown in the dryer for about 15 minutes to keep it sanitized and free of dust mites. The organic cotton slipcover is really easy to take off and get back on, so you can wash it with your regular laundry as often as you need to. This organic pillow DOES NOT contain chemical flame retardants.
Most nursing pillows provide a surface for you to place your baby on top of while breastfeeding, and then you have to hold your baby in place so you don't lose that precious latch! What makes this Nursing Pillow different is that the filling allows you to get your baby into the proper position, and then it conforms to baby's body and its weight helps it to stay put. The miracle of buckwheat hulls is that they move around like a bean-bag and then interlock together like puzzle pieces, giving stable support whatever size, shape or position you are in (and where you're sitting!) Dimensions: 26" wide, 16" deep and 5" high.
*all of our fabrics are certified organic by the very stringent GOTS (global organic textile standards)
Made in the USA
About Blessed Nest
Blessed Nest is a company that was founded in friendship, love and motherhood. The founder's friend was so determined to breastfeed, but the combination of a very active and wiggly baby, a painful cesarean incision and feeling as if her own body was working against her, she just couldn't find the physical support she needed. The thing other pillows had in common was that they just made her feel awkward and frustrated rather than the confident, nurturing mom we both knew she was.more »

Brandon Sun - ONLINE EDITION
Original 'Gimli Glider' can be yours for a few million
WANT to own a piece of Manitoba history, albeit a very large piece of history?
If so, you're in luck: The infamous Air Canada Boeing 767 that made history as the Gimli Glider is up for auction in April.
But you'll need to have a bit of money in your bank account.
Terry Lobzun, of Collector Car Productions, the company holding the auction via a video presentation at the Toronto Classic Car Auction on April 14, said the aircraft's owners are expecting to get from $2.75 million to $3 million for it.
"It can be flyable and it can be delivered," Lobzun said on Thursday from the company's offices in Blenheim, Ont.
"To get it back into service, they'd have to jump through some hoops and it probably wouldn't be economically feasible, but it can be flyable to deliver it to be put on display. It would be nice to see it at the Western Canada Aviation Museum or Gimli.
"But if it went to Gimli, you'd just have to let the motorsport people know it's coming this time," he said laughing.
The plane is currently housed at a facility in California.
The aircraft gained fame when, because of a fuel conversion error between metric and imperial units, not enough fuel was taken on before it was bound for Edmonton on July 23, 1983.
The plane's engines ran out of fuel at 41,000 feet and the powerless plane was glided to the former air force base in Gimli, forcing spectators at a drag strip to get out of the way. Nobody was injured.
The aircraft flew regularly until it was retired from service in 2008.
If the plane returns to Manitoba, it probably won't be parked at the aviation museum.
Shirley Render, the museum's executive director, said while the plane landed in Gimli with empty fuel tanks almost 30 years ago, it is still too new for their collection.
"It's too much on what people fly today," Render said.
"Our focus is on the old planes which people don't know too much about... it would be lovely but it wouldn't be on our dream list."
