Derry News
---- — LONDONDERRY — Londonderry Middle School students played to packed houses last weekend when the Drama Club presented the musical "Once on This Island."
The show cast students in the roles of peasants, goddesses and gods, and showcased the young talent in singing, dancing and more dramatic character roles.
The show was a one-act musical that features four gods keeping watch over a Caribbean island, the adventures of an orphaned peasant girl that lands there, and her eventual love and death decisions.
"Once On This Island" is based on the novel "My Love, My Love" by Rosa Guy.

During a Cactus League game against the Mariners on Wednesday afternoon, Dodgers starter Jon Garland had to come out after sustaining an injury that was later revealed to be a strained oblique. Now, via MLB.com's Ken Gurnick, we have a timetable.
Dodgers starter Jon Garland said on Thursday an MRI confirmed that he has a strained oblique muscle. It is expected to sideline him from four to six weeks, meaning he would start the regular season on the disabled list.
This is a tough break for the Dodgers, and for Garland, who has never missed a start in his Major League career. Garland's holding out some hope that he'll be fine by Opening Day, but the likelihood of that happening is really quite low.
Garland's injury is neither major nor minor, and he says it doesn't bother him when he's standing still. However, it hurts when he moves his core area, and he'll need to let this heal completely before he thinks about pitching in a game, lest the injury recur.
The Dodgers are expected to replace Garland for as long as he's out with either John Ely or Tim Redding.

MPs anxiously awaiting reshuffle (From Salisbury Journal)

MPs anxiously awaiting reshuffle
6:59pm Monday 3rd September 2012 in National News © Press Association 2014
Coalition MPs are on tenterhooks as David Cameron puts the finishing touches to his first major reshuffle in a shake-up aimed at reinvigorating the Government.
Former Liberal Democrat Treasury minister David Laws is predicted to make a return to the front benches, while key figures such as Chancellor George Osborne and Foreign Secretary William Hague are widely expected to remain in place.
But the Prime Minister plans to make significant moves across all ranks of government in the overhaul tipped to be made on Tuesday.
Mr Cameron will seek to reassert his authority over his restive Conservative Party after a summer of personal attacks on his leadership skills and will use the opportunity to get rid of under-performers as well as bring in rising stars from the 2010 intake of new MPs.
Much attention has focused on the key role of Conservative Party Chairman. Baroness Warsi has publicly appealed to Mr Cameron to allow her to carry on in the post, but some Tory MPs want to see her replaced with a big hitter who can galvanise support for the party.
Employment Minister Chris Grayling and Housing Minister Grant Shapps have been touted as possible alternatives from outside the Cabinet.
The Prime Minister is expected to hold a meeting of the Cabinet once the new top team has been finalised.
Although Mr Cameron is ultimately responsible for who sits in the Government, under coalition guidelines each party chooses who fills its allocation of posts.
Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg is likely to use the opportunity to bring former Treasury chief secretary Mr Laws back in from the cold after he was forced to resign over his parliamentary expenses just weeks after taking office. The MP was suspended from the Commons for seven days last year after a parliamentary inquiry found he had overclaimed expenses.
Aside from Mr Laws, Mr Clegg is expected to leave his government team largely in tact.

Petition to rid Shroomery of OTD (Off-topic Discussions)
As you all should and probably do in fact know, the section "Off-topic Discussions" or OTD in short is a breeding ground for negativity. Once you have posted in OTD expect to be insulted, ridiculed, trolled, given a bad rating, etc. There is no real "reason" for this section to even be here. We do have The Pub - which is to post about anything that there isn't a specific section for. OTD, is just a section where, ultimately, there are no rules. Not many people can post there because there's really only one primary group of people who use this section; You could even call them a clique - if you're not in this group of friends, expect to leave the OTD pretty angry and hurt, with nothing you can do about it. The shroomery is a place based on Psychedelics - Peace, Love, Light and Happiness, right? Why even allow a negative zone in a forum dedicated to something beautiful and surreal?

All things considered, the OCZ ARC 100 series is an excellent upgrade to a sluggish computer, thanks to good performance and affordable pricing.

OneDrive is a solid cloud storage option that's a must for Office users, but it doesn't offer many extra features that distinguish it from its competitors.

The usefulness of connected features outweighs their hodgepodge organization in the 2014 BMW X5 xDrive35i, and the mediocre fuel economy might be a price worth paying for the excellent driving dynamics.
The hefty pricing aside, the Samsung SSD 850 Pro is one of the best, if not the best, standard consumer-grade solid-state drives on the market.
If you want to keep your data safe from handling mishaps while getting the top Thunderbolt performance on the market, look no further than the LaCie Rugged Thunderbolt All-Terrain portable drive.
Fast, user-friendly, and affordable, the WD Black 2 Dual Drive is an easy recommendation as a replacement drive for any standard laptop or desktop computer.
The iBolt xProDock Connect's strong hardware and flexible software work well together, but the NFC gimmick feels like a DIY hack.
If style is as important as performance to you, the Drive SSD is the portable drive you've been saving for.
The Samsung Wireless is the best mobile device for media streaming and data backup, but only Android users need apply.

Despite some very minor quibbles, the 2014 BMW 535d xDrive delivers exceptional quality and feature content on all fronts, from online cabin tech to fuel economy to driving satisfaction.

Devil Ball Golf
Listen to Phil Mickelson and Jim Mackay discuss shots during the Deutsche Bank ChampionshipShane Bacon at Devil Ball Golf9 hrs ago
If there is one relationship in golf that young players should attempt to emulate, it's that of Phil Mickelson and Jim "Bones" Mackay. The two have been working together since 1992, taking the caddie-player relationship from something professional to something incredible.
Mackay seems to "get" Phil more than anyone out there, and the PGA Tour posted a cool video of the two discussing golf shots during the third round of the Deutsche Bank Championship.
Any golf fan will enjoy this, just hearing one of the greats of the game talking with one of the great caddies in all of golf during a big golf tournament. Hopefully the PGA Tour will continue to roll out some of these type of videos because I am not the only one that really enjoyed listening to Phil and Bones just go over what they plan to do with each shot.
John Hahn had one of the craziest rounds you'll ever see on Sunday at the Open D'ItaliaShane Bacon at Devil Ball Golf18 hrs ago
How do you shoot a 65 during a professional golf round with a quadruple-bogey on your card? Just ask American John Hahn, who did just that on Sunday at the Open D'Italia.
Hahn struggled on Friday and Saturday after opening with a 67 in Torino, but went out on Sunday and posted a 7-under 65, but it was nothing like what you'd expect from one of the low rounds of the day.
Hahn eagled his opening hole, made birdies on the next three, and after another eagle on the par-4 7th and a birdie on the 9th, it was out in 28 for Hahn. When he made another birdie on the 11th, Hahn sat at 9-under for the day and had people murmuring about a possible 59, but that was when the round went haywire.
Hahn made a quadruple-bogey on the par-3 13th to derail any chance of a sub-60 round, but followed up his blowup hole with a birdie on the 14th and a third eagle on No. 15.
The final score was a 65, but it had plenty of crazy things happening for Hahn, who finished T-35, jumping 37 spots on Sunday with that wicked round of golf.
Rory McIlroy off to a hot start in his opening round at the Deutsche Bank ChampionshipShane Bacon at Devil Ball Golf3 days ago
For Rory McIlroy, the start of the FedEx Cup playoffs was the first real letdown of this incredible summer run from the No. 1 player in the world. Atop the FedEx Cup rankings before the Barclays, McIlroy never really got it going on the weekend after a Friday 65, finishing T-22, stopping his run of three straight wins and forcing the 25-year-old to recharge his batteries.
Just a week later, it looks like Rory did just that, coming out on fire during the opening round of the Deutsche Bank Championship. Starting on the 10th hole, Rory stuck his opening approach shot to just a couple of feet to get his round going with a birdie, but it didn't stop there.
McIlroy rolled in a bomb on the par-3 11th for two in a row, and after a par on the 12th, hit another approach shot to just a couple of feet for his third birdie in four holes.
Rory's round is still going, but I couldn't imagine a better start for the man searching for his first FedEx Cup title and a second win at this championship.

The Deutsche Bank Championship is always a fun week on the PGA Tour. The Friday start is a bit different, as is the Monday finish, and the tournament has been an important part of the FedEx Cup since it all began in 2007.
As we get set for the second leg of the 2014 playoffs, we look back at some of the best shots ever hit at the Deutsche Bank Championship since the playoffs began in '07.
We have a little Phil, some Tiger, and a clutch, clutch performance by Webb Simpson back in 2011 when he closed with three birdies to win his second of four PGA Tour titles.
This PGA Championship final round supercut is amazingShane Bacon at Devil Ball Golf5 days ago
If you've been around these parts before, you know we are big fans of Michael David Murphy's YouTube cuts. After majors, Murphy puts together fun supercuts of the final round, usually showing every shot the champion hits in just under a minute or two.
For the 2014 PGA Championship, Murphy stepped up his game.
Above you'll see an amazing supercut of the final round, with Rory McIlroy, Phil Mickelson, Rickie Fowler and Henrik Stenson all thrown in during different points of their final round.
Watch, enjoy, and re-live the best major of the 2014 season.
Butch Harmon nixes the idea of any Tiger Woods reunionShane Bacon at Devil Ball Golf6 days ago
It might have been the Dream Team pairing of golfer and teacher over a decade ago, but don't think Tiger Woods will be returning to Butch Harmon after the announcement that he would be parting ways with Sean Foley.
This is all according to Harmon, the 70-year-old instructor that worked with Woods up until 2004 and was a part of eight of the 14 majors Tiger was able to win.
Harmon told the Golf Channel's Rex Hoggard that with Woods coachless once more, a reunion between the two isn't just unlikely, but it won't be happening.
"No I would not and he's not going to call and ask," Harmon told the Golf Channel. "I don't think he needs a swing coach. If I were advising Tiger I'd tell him, 'You're the greatest player that ever lived, just go to the range and hit shots.'"
Winners and losers from the BarclaysShane Bacon at Devil Ball Golf7 days ago
This past weekend saw a lot of great storylines and we are here to give you the good and the bad of it. Here are our winners and losers from the past week in golf.
Hunter Mahan — One of the reasons the FedEx Cup playoffs are a cool end to the season is it gives people a chance to still have a monumental, season-changing win. The 2014 Barclays saw a list of guys that needed a victory, including Jim Furyk, Jason Day and the man listed here in Hunter Mahan. It had been more than two years since his last win, and Mahan was in need of a solid final round to give himself a chance, but that seems to be the way he likes to win golf tournaments. With his closing 65 at the Barclays, Mahan made it four of five stroke play wins that included a final round of 65 or lower, meaning when he sees the trophy and is feeling that his game is clicking, it's game-on when Sundays roll around.
Tiger Woods splits with swing coach Sean FoleyShane Bacon at Devil Ball Golf7 days ago
For the first time in his career, Tiger Woods will be splitting ways with a swing coach before they ever won a single major championship.
Woods announced on Monday that he and swing coach Sean Foley, whom he began working with four years, are going in a different direction, taking to his website to break the news that Woods will once again be looking for a new swing coach.
"I'd like to thank Sean for his help as my coach and for his friendship," Woods said. "Sean is one of the outstanding coaches in golf today, and I know he will continue to be successful with the players working with him. With my next tournament not until my World Challenge event at Isleworth in Orlando, this is the right time to end our professional relationship."
The relationship between Woods and Foley was an interesting one. Foley came on when Woods' golf game was as down in the dumps as it ever was, and after struggling through 2011, saw Woods pick up three wins in 2012 and five in 2013 including PGA Tour Player of the Year.
For the second straight day, Phil Mickelson hits tee shot in the grandstands on No. 5, plays itShane Bacon at Devil Ball Golf9 days ago
If this wasn't real life, and real sport, nobody would believe what happened to Phil Mickelson on Saturday at The Barclays.
A day after wowing the fans with a shot out of the grandstands on the par-4 fifth hole, Mickelson's tee shot sailed left again on the same hole, hit the cart path just like it did on Friday, and bounced into the grandstands to a perfect, AstroTurf lie.
What did Mickelson do? Play the shot from the grandstands, just like he did on Friday, but this time he was able to make a par, one shot better than his adventures in the second round.
Mickelson appeared to take a little more time with this one, hitting it on the green and two-putting for the par.
As for The Barclays, fans had a little fun with his shot from Friday, painting "Phil was here" right around the area he first hit from.
Phil Mickelson hits tee shot in grandstands, plays it from thereShane Bacon at Devil Ball Golf10 days ago
Phil Mickelson is a fan favorite for a reason. Despite his "aww, shucks" mentality, and how a lot of people got behind him when he continued to come up short in majors before 2004, there is a bit of drama that people like Mickelson, Arnold Palmer and Lee Trevino possess that few others in golf history have.
Phil gets this is a business, and knows that thrilling fans is a good business model. On Friday at the Barclays he did just that when his tee shot sailed wide left on the par-4 5th.
Mickelson went up to find his ball in the middle of the grandstands, sitting perfectly on the AstroTurf and instead of taking a free drop that might fall in a nasty lie, Phil decided to play it from there, right in the middle of the fans.
The people absolutely loved it, and despite hitting the shot over the green and making bogey, it was a very cool moment for everyone involved, and exactly why Phil is beloved the way he is.

Matthew Ministries Outreach, a soup kitchen located at 10th Avenue and 19th Street in downtown Jasper, celebrated its 12 years of service Friday with a potluck lunch.
"We are so blessed to have been able to provide this ministry for the last 12 years," said Pastor Lindon Frost, organizer of the kitchen.
The kitchen, which is a ministry of Christ Fellowship International, meets each Wednesday and Friday at 11 a.m. Frost said the number of people who comes for food each week varies.
"During the summer and the winter we can see as many as 35 to 40 people," he said. "We try to be here and be consistent. We've done that for 12 years. The people who come here are like family to me."
On Friday, John Butler, pastor of Carbon Hill Church of God of Prophecy, shared a short devotion with the crowd.
"We're thankful for Bro. Butler being here today," Frost said. "I speak many of the days that we have the kitchen, but I also like to bring in guests to speak. We try to change things up so it's not the same every time."
Frost said the group also likes to change the menu up. On Friday, the potluck lunch featured a baked ham. He said the ministry is always looking for monetary donations and donated canned goods to help with the cost of food.
"Getting donations helps us to be able to change the menu more and it allows us to offer more than just soup," he said. "We try to really give folks a good meal. We want to feed physically and spiritually."
Frost said the soup kitchen is always open to anyone.
"This is for anybody in our community," he said. "We are always happy to add to our family here at the kitchen."
For more information on the soup kitchen, contact Frost at 205-522-7845.

Peetu Piiroinen
Calm, quiet, and nice are all legit descriptors of Peetu Piiroinen, but get this four-time TTR titleholder and Olympic silver-winning Finn on snow (in any terrain), and a calculated slayer emerges.
Bursting into the competition limelight by tying together major podiums around the world, Peetu proved he wasn't limited to laser-like precision in slopestyle alone, calmly taking second to Shaun White at the Vancouver Olympic Superpipe. Taking third in slopestyle at the Tignes Winter X Games and the Grand Prix qualifier in Colorado this past season, Peetu locked in yet another overall TTR title with his consistency and ability to thrown down in all venues. It's this rare combo that we're sure will set off Olympic fireworks this winter in Sochi.

Daily Dispatches From The Global Scene
Denim label Rock & Republic returns to Paris tonight, staging its now signature blowout at the Hôtel de Crillon. This season, however, R&R is blowing out multimedia-style. Alongside the Spring 2010 collection, the brand will be screening the first in what CEO and creative director Michael Ball envisions as a series of films documenting Rock & Republic mood and/or modus operandi. Style.com has a sneak preview of the video, which was directed by rising-star photog Paola Kudacki and styled by Mel Ottenberg, and sets up models Charlotte Carey and Stephane Olivier for an erotic pas de deux. But go ahead, click to play. It's still SFW.
As Ball explains, the key to the video's interpretation of Lolita lust is restraint. "I think we've all felt, at one time or another, a lust for the thing we can't have," he explains. "But the great love affairs are the ones where some patience is exercised and those lines aren't crossed." He adds, "At least not right away." The concept of restraint, Ball explains, ties back to Spring's clothes. "Charlotte was really my muse this season," he says. "She's young and incredibly sexy, but there's a sweetness and naïveté to her that makes her sexiness interesting. I wanted to channel that into the clothes and go for a sexiness that's not so overt."

From Staff and Wire Reports
Gloucester Daily Times
---- — The murder of a sometime fisherman with Gloucester ties is one of 11 for which a jury found Boston mob boss James "Whitey" Bulger guilty Monday.
One of the nation's most wanted fugitives, Bulger, 83, was also convicted of a slew of other crimes, including conspiracy in three murders, many of them committed while he was said to be an FBI informant.
John McIntyre of Quincy was a sometimes fisherman who acted as ship's mechanic when Bulger cronies shipped 71/2 tons of weapons and ammunition to the Irish Republican Army aboard the Gloucester-based swordfishing vessel Valhalla in 1984.
When authorities seized the weapons shortly after they were transferred to another ship, and a drug shipment was seized from another vessel in Boston, Bulger heard from an FBI agent that McIntyre may have told authorities about both operations.
Bulger engineered a meeting in a South Boston home with the fisherman, said Bulger associate Kevin Weeks, a key witness.
McIntyre was chained to a chair and interrogated by Bulger, who held a machine gun, and that when McIntyre admitted he was cooperating, Bulger wrapped a rope around his neck and tried to strangle him. The rope was too thick, Weeks said.
"Jim says to him, 'Do you want one in the head?' and he said, 'Yes, please,'" Weeks testified.
Weeks helped bury McIntyre in the cellar, and dig him up and rebury him in Dorchester when the house was sold. It was Weeks, when arrested after Bulger went on the lam, who lead police to McIntyre's body and two others buried with him.
Bulger was charged primarily with racketeering, which listed 33 criminal acts — among them, 19 murders that he allegedly helped orchestrate or carried out himself during the 1970s and '80s while he led the Winter Hill Gang, Boston's ruthless Irish mob. The racketeering charge also included acts of extortion, conspiracy, money-laundering and drug dealing.
After 4½ days of deliberations, the jury decided he took part in 11 of those murders, including McIntyre's, along with nearly all the other crimes on the racketeering list. He was also found guilty separately of 30 other offenses, including possession of machine guns.
Bulger stood silently and showed no reaction upon hearing the verdict, which brought to a close a case that not only transfixed the city with its grisly violence but exposed corruption inside the Boston FBI and an overly cozy relationship with its underworld snitches.
Bulger could get life in prison at sentencing Nov. 13. But given his age, even a modest term could amount to a life sentence for the slightly stooped, white-bearded Bulger.
As court broke up, Bulger turned to his relatives and gave them a thumbs-up. A woman in the gallery taunted him as he led away, apparently imitating machine-gun fire as she yelled: "Rat-a-tat-tat, Whitey!"
Outside the courtroom, relatives of the victims hugged each other, the prosecutors and even defense attorneys.
Patricia Donahue wept as the verdict was read, saying it was a relief to see Bulger convicted in the murder of her husband, Michael Donahue, who authorities say was an innocent victim who died in a hail of gunfire while giving a ride to an FBI informant marked for death by Bulger.
Thomas Donahue, who was 8 when his father was killed, said: "Thirty-one years of deceit, of cover-up. ... Finally we have somebody guilty of it. Thirty-one years — that's a long time." He said that when he heard the verdict in his father's slaying, "I wanted to jump up. I was like, 'Damn right.'"
"Today is a day that many in this city thought would never come," said U.S. Attorney Carmen Ortiz. "This day of reckoning has been a long time in coming." She added: "We hope that we stand here today to mark the end of an era that was very ugly in Boston's history."
Bulger attorney J.W. Carney Jr. said Bulger intends to appeal because the judge didn't let him argue that he had been granted immunity for his crimes by a now-dead federal prosecutor.
However, Carney said Bulger was pleased with the trial and its outcome, because "it was important to him that the government corruption be exposed, and important to him to see the deals the government was able to make with certain people."
"Mr. Bulger knew as soon as he was arrested that he was going to die behind the walls of a prison or on a gurney and injected with chemicals that would kill him," Carney said. "This trial has never been about Jim Bulger being set free."
During the two-month trial, federal prosecutors portrayed him as a cold-blooded, hands-on boss who killed anyone he saw as a threat, along with innocent people who happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Then, according to testimony, he would go off and take a nap while his underlings handled the cleanup.
Bulger, the model for Jack Nicholson's sinister crime boss in the 2006 Martin Scorsese movie "The Departed," was seen for years as a Robin Hood figure who bought Thanksgiving turkeys for fellow residents of working-class South Boston and kept hard drugs out of the neighborhood. But that image was shattered when authorities started digging up bodies.
Bulger skipped town in 1994 after being tipped off — by a retired FBI agent, John Connolly, it turned out — that he was about to be indicted.
During 16 years on the run, Bulger was on the FBI's 10 Most Wanted list. He was finally captured in 2011 in Santa Monica, Calif., where he had been living in a rent-controlled apartment near the beach with his longtime girlfriend, Catherine Greig. She was sentenced to eight years in prison for helping Bulger evade the law.
His disappearance proved a major embarrassment to the FBI when it came out at court hearings and trials that Bulger had been an informant from 1975 to 1990, feeding the bureau information on the rival New England Mafia as well as members of his own gang while he continued to kill and intimidate.
Those proceedings also revealed that Bulger and his gang paid off several FBI agents and state and Boston police officers, dispensing Christmas envelopes of cash and cases of fine wine to get information on search warrants, wiretaps and investigations and stay one step ahead of the law.
At his trial, Bulger's lawyers tried to turn the tables on the government, detailing the corruption inside the FBI and accusing prosecutors of offering absurdly generous deals to three former Bulger loyalists to testify against him.
The defense portrayed the three key witnesses — gangster Stephen The Rifleman" Flemmi, hit man John Martorano and Bulger protege Kevin Weeks — as pathological liars who pinned their own crimes on Bulger so they could get reduced sentences.
But overall, the defense barely contested many of the charges against Bulger. In fact, Bulger's lawyers conceded he ran a criminal enterprise that raked in millions through drugs, gambling and loansharking.
His lawyers did strongly deny he killed women, something Bulger evidently regarded as a violation of his underworld code of honor. The jury ultimately found he had a role in the strangling of one woman — Flemmi's stepdaughter — but it could not reach a decision on the other woman, Flemmi's girlfriend.
Prosecutors said the women were killed because they knew too much about the gang's business.
The defense also spent a surprising amount of time disputing he was a "rat" — a label that seemed to set off the hotheaded Bulger more than anything else, causing him to erupt in obscenities in the courtroom.
Bulger's lawyers argued that Connolly, Bulger's supposed handler inside the FBI, fabricated Bulger's thick informant file to cover up his corrupt relationship with the gangster and advance his own career.
The prosecution's witnesses also included numerous drug dealers, bookmakers and legitimate businessmen who described terrifying encounters with Bulger in which he ordered them to pay up or take a beating or worse.
Real estate developer Richard Buccheri said Bulger threatened to kill him and his family if he did not pay $200,000. Buccheri related how Bulger slammed his hand on a table in anger.
"With that, he takes the shotgun that was on the table — he sticks it in my mouth," Buccheri said as spectators in the courtroom gasped.
Before the trial, Bulger's lawyers said he would take the stand and detail the corruption inside the FBI. But after Judge Denise Casper disallowed him attempt to argue he had immunity, Bulger did not testify.
"I feel that I've been choked off from having an opportunity to give an adequate defense," he complained to the judge as the trial wound down. "My thing is, as far as I'm concerned, I didn't get a fair trial, and this is a sham, and do what youse want with me. That's it. That's my final word."
Bulger's life story fascinated Bostonians for decades. He grew up in a South Boston housing project and quickly became involved in crime, while his younger brother, William, rose to become one of the most powerful politicians in Massachusetts as state Senate president.
William Bulger was forced to resign as president of the University of Massachusetts system in 2003 after it was learned that he got a call from his brother while he was on the run and didn't urge him to surrender.

Thought maybe mine were different So i read the reviews and even tried these on in the store and thought "I know a lot of people said they rip, but they are SO comfortable. Maybe mine won't do that". I had them maybe 2 months and of course, exactly as discribed, the has two holes in the pocket corners. I LOVED these jeans, they were so flattering and comfortable I wore them all the time. If you don't think they will rip, think again. July 17, 2014
Best Loungin' Jeans I love these jeans for lounging and running errands. I don't recommend these jeans for a night out on the town though due to the fact that they're definitely not a premium denim. The material is pretty thin, so I can see how they would rip for so many. Thankfully they have not ripped for me yet, and I've had them a few months now. They stretch quite a bit too, to the point where I could pull them all the way down to my knees without unbuttoning them. Again, lounging and running errand jeans! I am 5'9" tall with 39" hips, and wear a size 10. June 30, 2014
I thought mine were the only ones!!!.... Mine ripped exactly 6 months after I bought them too!!!!!!! I thought that maybe I just bought too tight a pair but after reading these reviews it sounds like this is a common occurrence with these specific jeans only. However, I give everything a second chance so I'm buying another pair of these hoping that they wont rip this time because I really liked them for the short period of time I was able to wear them. **crossing fingers** Side Note: before I ever bought this specific pair of jeans I had the regular low rise boot cut jean (no thick stitch) and they have lasted for nearly two years now with no ripping just the normal fading has occurred. If you are about to write off express jeans for good, I recommend giving it one last shot with these instead. June 21, 2014
Express Take These Off The Shelf! I bought these jeans in December and LOVED them! About two months later I noticed holes in both back pockets. I loved them so much that I patched them. A few months later I had a hole in the crotch!! I then noticed them ripping in multiple areas. I just can't believe that Express is still selling these jeans, even after all the complaints!! VERY unhappy!!! April 28, 2014
Keep ripping! I absolutely love these jeans BUT they keep ripping...for me in the seam in the butt. The first time I was at work when I noticed a draft. I was horrified. I didn't know who saw. Today I went to put my newest pair on ...only two months old and the same thing happened. Let's be clear. I wear a size 6...they are NOT too tight. They material just shreds... P April 21, 2014

Select Route:
This climb was originally on site "flashed" in 1981 by Tim Sorenson & Jeff Shrimpton. Bolts were placed on lead. The route was previously rated 5.10b(R) in the Tucker/Steele book. The Slater guide rates it at 5.10a(R). For the longest time, you had to bring your own hangers if you wanted to climb this route. As late as 1994, the Steele book was recommending that you bring hangers just in case! Don't worry, the hangers are all there today.

This is something I've been thinking about for a while. How can I cache and have nearly-instant access to any data point within the time series without having to splash out on expensive time series databases. I have an half cooked solution and decided to write this post to see if anybody out there has worked on a similar problem and has a better solution to share.
Specifically I'm trying to work with financial data. Take for example transactions. A position management system needs to be able to store millions of a transactions for a number of portfolios. Storing the data is not a problem for any relational database – The problem is querying it.
Financial data is, by its own nature, relational. This means, as far as I'm concerned, that you'd always want to store your raw data in a relational model without de-normalizing it.
Now this is all good and well but when we need to access the transactions for a specific portfolio between the first of January 1999 and the 31st of December 2008 with all the related security information and prices relational databases start to struggle. Of course it is doable, but if you can get the data out first CPU cycles used by your software to do the computation are less expensive than you database's.
What I want to be able to do is build a cache of the flattened (de-normalized) data and make it available to n clients at the same time.
The obvious solution is to build a massive time-ordered array of all the transactions and store it in memory. Considering the potential size of the array something like memcached would be more appropriate.
Here comes the second problem. Assume a client calls your software with a couple of dates, you will be forced to loop over the whole array to find the chunk you need. Again, doable, but inefficient.
Array is definitely the way to go to store the data. What I need is an "index" which will tell me exactly where a specific transaction is stored in the array.
Here's a possible solution I've been toying with today.
The idea comes from a technique used in videogames called voxel-based-rending and ray-casting. I'll try and briefly explain what that is (at least as far as my idea is concerned):
Say you are trying to render a landscape. Voxel rendering makes this fairly simple and is achieved column by column. For each column, a maximum Y value was stored (in a Y-Buffer). The pixels of the column in question are filled in starting at the bottom of the screen, only if their Y value was greater than the one stored in the Y-Buffer. This rendering method made the process of removing non-visible parts of the scene very efficient and very easy.
While creating the array we should also create a map (our Y-buffer). The map will simply contain a transaction unique id as key and the position in the array as value.
This way when the client calls our APIs with the last unique identifier it has received we'll just have to make a very quick lookup in our Y-Buffer for the array position and this will point us exactly to what we need to return.
This could work, but it's only a partial solution, or rather a solution for a very specific problem. What we really want is for the client to be able to hand in 2 date-time values (from and to).
We could create our index using time information. The problem is that transactions are not at constant time-intervals. Which means that if we are called with a time value that is not in our index we'd still end up looping over the values around the closest point to find the position of the first element in the series.
An alternative would be to build our index using the maximum precision allowed. say an index of milliseconds where the last element position in the array is repeated in the index until a new one appears. Doable but very memory consuming.
This is as far as I've gone. Any other ideas out there?

As Long Memorial United Methodist Church in Cordova looked with broken hearts at the rubble that was once their beautiful church building, they had a sister church in Williams Chapel United Methodist Church near the Pineywoods community that shared their sorrow. What started as one church using another until arrangements could be made turned into blessings beyond words for both churches as they made it possible for each group to still have their services as they were used to but brought the Sunday School classes together as one. God was creating a bond between these people, His people, that will forever stand as a testimony that in Him we are all one and that the beautiful Long Memorial church building was no longer as it had been but the church was never gone because the wonderful congregation that comprised Long Memorial was the church and is the church.
One of the greatest blessings out of this tragedy was the joining of the churches two youth groups. The young people joined in with my smaller group for Sunday School and there never was an uncomfortable time of the youth getting used to each other but it was as if they had all always known each other. These young people came from four different school districts within the county but the rivalry usually seen between schools was never present. They were just a group of young people joining together to worship and learn the Word of God. After a short time they joined together for youth outings, youth praise services at other churches and eventually a retreat to Tybee Island in Georgia.
Through all of this, the youth continued to grow closer and the leaders grew to love having the time they had watching the friendships and closeness develop. By the time the sad/happy day came that Long Memorial was ready to have their first service in their new building in Cordova, the youth group was indeed one, never to be two again. On Wednesday nights, the leaders load up the church bus and cars and make the drive to Williams Chapel for youth time there. Our general time is first having a meal with the youth that is provided by different volunteers each week and then a time of teaching where we show them how to use the Word of God in their everyday life. In doing this I think we oftentimes learn more from them as they share everyday experiences with us. On Sunday afternoons those of us at Williams Chapel travel to Long Memorial for youth time there.
Some think of this as too much work. Some do not see the benefits of doing it. Some still think of two separate groups. But not us. We are one. Just ask any of the youth involved in the group. Williams Chapel is the smaller group and the Long Memorial youth leaders do not have to take the time it takes to drive in that direction on Wednesday night or at other times we do something at church service that includes the youth group. I could say that driving a few kids on Sunday afternoon to Cordova is too much trouble. But the blessings we as leaders receive and seeing the bonds made between these young people that will be with them a lifetime are so well worth it. What a privilege to have met these beautiful people from Long Memorial and to have the opportunity to keep our relationships going through not only the youth group but through us all being one in God.

using xampp - several questions.
I have been using php and mysql since Kevin posted his 10 lessons on this site. My isp supplies the db (user and pw). That has served me well.
Now I need to do some work in DW5.5 (non cloud) and I have dl-ed xmapp, opened it and am to the point of needing a db, user and pw.
Thanks in advance

As I am on my home PC I just use the root without a password !
From the xampp website:
How I can set a "root" password in MySQL? (method 1)
The easiest way is to use the security console, which you can access at http://localhost/security/.
This "console" creates a password for the MySQL user "root" and is adjusting the phpMyAdmin configuration.
How I can set a "root" password in MySQL? (method 2)
With the"XAMPP Shell" (command prompt) you can also change the password. Open the shell and execute this command:
mysqladmin.exe -u root password secret
Of course, your password should not be "secret", too. In the next step you must adjust the phpMyAdmin configuration for this new password. In the file "\xampp\phpMyAdmin\config.inc.php" change the lines:
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['user'] = 'root';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = '';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['user'] = 'root';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = 'secret';
Instead in the XAMPP Shell, you can also change the password with phpMyAdmin, and then adjust the phpMyAdmin configuration.

First, congrats on the photo award.
I was a bit apprehensive about asking the wrong question, and sure enough, I did (ask the wrong question). Please be patient.
root and its password are for the entirety of xampp\mysql and your reply reenforces the reading I found in the installation blurbs. I tend to sometimes go sideways and what you have said confirms that I am correct - so far.
I need to setup a project database and user account.
I need to post. My machine is going zonks...............
I posted and then realized that I had not thanked you for the very thoughtful reply, Thanks and Peace

When dealing with php and MySQL you're best off creating a new "super-user" for MySQL for the general administration of MySQL.l Once the new super user ins created it should be used instead of the default or root. Once you've created the new super-user then any other super-uses should be deleted, especially root. Each PHP app should have it's own MySQL user which will only have privileges for that app's own database.
If you're using a shared server then you'll probably have no say as to what MySQL user you use for PHP to access MySQL or for you to administer MySQL directly.Community Team Advisor

I am sorry about the delay in reply . Personal stuff.
Thanks for the reply and it makes a lot of sense to move away from using "root".
Many thanks to those who have read the thread and an extra helping of thanks to those who have replied.

Arcadia in Sicily Program | Course Registration and Instructions - Semester
The full list of course offerings at the Arcadia Sicily Center is below.
All courses with the exception of Italian Language are taught in English.
All the Italian Language and Culture courses at the Arcadia Sicily Center explicitly refer to the Common European Framework of Reference For Languages (CEF), which "provides a common basis for the elaboration of language syllabuses, curriculum guidelines, examinations, textbooks etc. across Europe. It describes in a comprehensive way what language learners have to learn and to do in order to use a language for communication and what knowledge and skills they have to develop so as to be able to act effectively" (CEF 1.1).
The CEF also gives special emphasis to the description of the cultural context in which language is set. Thus, our Language and Culture courses are designed to provide instruction and assessment in not just language proficiency but cultural understanding as well. Our aim is to develop student's reading, writing, listening and speaking skills within a cultural frame of reference reflective of the richness of the Italian language and culture.
With the use of authentic resources (films, literature, audio recordings, the Internet, the press) and through some CLIL-based units (Content and Language Integrated Learning) our courses offer a survey on socio-cultural topics such as aspects of Italian geography, contemporary life in Italy, the arts and sciences, social customs and traditions. Our didactics also promotes students' participation in the community and the development of intercultural skills through the conscious comparisons of Italian language and culture with their own.

Bartholomew County —
An alcohol-related incident in Bartholomew County led to the arrest of a Decatur County Sheriff's deputy early Wednesday.
According to Bartholomew County Sheriff's Department Major Todd Noblitt, Deputy Doug Pittman was arrested early Wednesday morning on Base Road, near State Road 46 in Bartholomew County. Pittman, 38, was booked into the Bartholomew County Jail on charges of operating a motor vehicle with a blood alcohol content (BAC) over .15, public intoxication, and leaving the scene of an accident resulting in property damage. Major Noblitt told the Daily News that Pittman's BAC was tested at .16, which is twice the legal limit (.08) allowed when operating a motor vehicle. All three charges are misdemeanors. Pittman was not on duty at the time of the incident, Noblitt said.
Pittman was arrested in his personal vehicle, a blue Dodge Ram pickup truck, following a search by Bartholomew County deputies for a suspicious vehicle in the area of State Road 46 and Base Road shortly after midnight Wednesday.
A firearm was confiscated from the vehicle following the deputy's arrest. The weapon was then remanded to Decatur County Sheriff Greg Allen, who assisted at the scene with Lt. Eric Blodgett. Major Noblitt could not confirm whether or not the gun in the vehicle was Pittman's police issued firearm.
Investigators believe Pittman was involved in a single-vehicle accident causing undisclosed property damage in the area of County Road 850 East and County Road 50 North in Bartholomew County. Investigators recovered a bumper that appears to be a match for Pittman's Dodge Ram.
Commenting on the case, Major Noblitt called the alleged act "a bad decision" that "sets a poor example."
"Law enforcement officers aren't above the law," he added.
Pittman spent the night in jail, then posted bond in the amount of $505 cash Wednesday morning. He has been placed on administrative leave pending further investigation by Sheriff Allen.
Deputy Pittman joined the Decatur County Sheriff's Department in 2011 and serves as the county's canine officer.

VALORIE EVERSOLE - Daily Union Reporter
SHELBYVILLE, IL. — A guilty verdict was returned Thursday afternoon following the defense portion and closing statement in the trial of a Herrick man charged with First Degree Murder.
Wayne Newlin is charged with Accountability in the December 29 murder of Jeremy Morgan in rural Herrick. Michael Pease of Pana is currently serving 45 years for his part in the murder.
Defense attorney Walter Lookofsky cross examined Illinois State Police investigator Brett Shearer, and questioned ISP Sgt. Matt McCormick, both who interrogated Newlin at the Pana Police Department
He also recalled Heather Thomas for additional questioning.
The defense rested after McCormick's testimony. Newlin chose not to testify.
In closing statements, appellate prosecutor Ed Parkinson argued that "although he did not pull the trigger – Pease did that – he (Newlin) was involved in the plan to do away with Jeremy Morgan."
"If he participated in a plan, he didn't have to pull the trigger. One person pulled the trigger but two people devised the plan," Parkinson said. "Newlin aided, abetted and facilitated. It was his gun, his ammo, hit tractor, his plastic. He found a person cold-blooded enough to do it. It's his fault Jeremy Morgan is no longer with us."
"In the video, his own words convicted him. 'I should have called the whole thing off, but I didn't. I just let him (Pease) go ahead'," Parkinson told the jury.
Lookofsky argued that Newlin was just venting his frustration, but Pease, who admitted he had trouble reading people, took what Newlin said literally and carried out the murder.
"Newlin was doing nothing but venting," Lookofsky said.
"During the interrogation, the officers wore him down and he repeated back what they asked him," Lookofsky continued. "The evidence rests on the testimony of Michael Pease and his self-serving interests."
In his rebuttal, Parkinson argued that Michael Pease would not have killed Morgan were it not by the solicitation by Wayne Newlin.
The 11 man, 1 woman jury spent just a little over an hour in deliberations before reaching the guilty verdict.
Newlin will be sentenced on November 9 in Shelby County Court.

COVINGTON - The Salem baseball team moved to 12-2 on the season and 10-2 in Region 8-AAAA play with a 12-2 over Eastside on Monday.The Seminoles scored four runs in the first inning, three in the second, two in the third and three in the fifth to evoke the mercy rule on Eastside (4-10, 4-8). "Our guys swung at good pitches today. They looked for strikes and attacked their pitches," Salem coach Chris Davis said. Salem's pitching was equally as impressive. Jake Dyer got the start on the mound and gave up one earned run on four hits in four innings of work. Dyer also fanned three batters. Brandon Crumbley came in to close it out in the bottom of the fifth and struck out the side. In the top of the first, Corey Womack scored on an Eastside error to put Salem up 1-0. Crumbley later made it 3-0 with a two-run single. The last run of the inning came off an RBI single by Logan Singleton. Eastside's Jared Trust smacked a double and later scored on an RBI groundout by Cameron Davenport to make it 4-1 in the bottom of the first. In the top of the second, Salem went up 5-1 after Dustin Dunlop doubled, took third on a wild pitch and scored on an Eastside fielding error. Later that inning, Drew Dentler smashed a solo homer over the scoreboard in right field and put the Seminoles ahead 6-1. The last run of the inning came off an RBI double by Crumbley. In the third, Dentler's sacrifice fly out made it 8-1. Dyer then knocked in a run with an RBI single. Eastside cut into Salem's lead, but not by much, scoring off an RBI double by Joey Bruce in the bottom of the fourth. Bruce's hit plated Rashad Benton to make it 9-2. Salem's final runs of the contest came in the top of the fifth off a two-run single by Singleton and an RBI single by Jonathan Brewer. Eastside coach Michael Poor said Salem made plays and his team did not. "Salem did a fantastic job of making the routine play. They were also very disciplined at the plate," he said. "We can't commit errors on routine plays and expect to win. We did not execute the fundamentals today." Eastside plays again Wednesday at home against Loganville. Salem is off Wednesday, but the Seminoles head to Jefferson on Friday to take on Jackson County. Brandon Evans can be reached at email@example.com.

First mishap was we were given wrong dining times and refused to change it, despite written confirmation of the times we requested. Consiquently placed on top corner of dining room completely excluded from rest of the dining room.
Food we found very dissapointing and very poor selection, with virtually no english dishes at all.
Entertainment was very poor, relied mainly on audience participation. The weekend we were there, there was no entertainment at all in the theatre. Juggler magician and comedian very poor.
Despite numerous complaints to personnel in charge nobody seemed to care or wanted to do anything about it.
Cruise was described as a fun cruise but the fun was mostly for the numerous children aboard.
We found the service staff (i.e stewards/ waitresses etc)as opposed to managerial staff very helpful.
Why couldn't the managerial staff follow their example?
The only comfort we could find on this ship was the excellent sleeping accomodation and balcony.
Rooms were nice however. They were lovely,kept very clean and very looked after.
All in all a very dissapointing holiday, certainly not to be recommended.
