Police believe a member of an outlaw motorcycle club recently stole several bikes that had been advertised online.
Officers are looking for Matthew Williams, 29, who is a member of the "Sin City Deciples," Bill Storment with the Gallatin Police Department said in a news release.
Williams is now suspected in several motorcycle cases. In February, he allegedly used Craigslist to arrange a test ride of a Harley-Davidson and never brought it back.
Investigators also believe Williams is behind a much more violent theft in Bowling Green, KY, on Jan. 20. In that case, a seller refused to allow a test ride but was shot in the leg and the motorcycle was stolen.
Police have investigated similar thefts in Gallatin last year and in Lafayette in February, Storment said.
Williams is wanted on attempted murder charges in Kentucky, along with theft charges in several parts of Middle Tennessee.
Other people in the Deciples have been indicted on federal charges, and all members should be considered armed and dangerous, Storment said.
Williams may be driving a black GMC Yukon or black Ford Expedition.
Anyone with information can call Gallatin police at 615-452-1313.

©2009 Ramit Sethi; (P)2009 Recorded Books, LLC
"Great if u live in the USA, don't buy it u don't"
If you live in the States it is a great book, but 90% of it does not apply if you live outside the US.
"The content is much better than the title"
This book was recommended to me twice by two different friends. I was skeptical of its value due to the cheesy title, but apparently you can't judge a book by the cover. I really liked this book.
This is not a detailed financial book, it is a very practical "this is the bare minimum you should be doing, and here's how you do it" book. Which for me, was a perfect starting point. I used a lot of Ramit's advice.
If you're young and just getting started with *really* managing your finances, this is your book.
I bought the audio book and half way through bought the paper back book so I'd have quick reference to the resources Ramit frequently cites.
"great advice"
Technically you could find all of this information for free elsewhere, but Sethi very clearly, very entertainingly and very practically gives tons of advice on how best to automate your money to go to the right investment accounts, what you should look out for and what you should avoid. In a similar vein to the "Four-Hour Workweek," Sethi trains you on developing habits for looking at investments and expenses that stick with you after you've accomplished his weekly action lists.
Although I enjoyed this audio recording, I might recommend getting a printed version because there's a lot of information you'll need to reference at later times.
Instructional Designer is the area of Workforce Development.
"Sound Advice"
If you are looking for the silver bullet; look elsewhere. But if you looking for solid good money management advice, then buy this book. His advice does work.
"Excellent book to plan out your personal finances."
This is a no-nonsense book written by a normal person who knows what he's talking about. There are many opinions that might seem counter to the mainstream, but with a lot of truth. I have internalized many concepts from here and I'm already putting them in practice, and telling everyone some of the great concepts in here. I've read several books about personal finance, but this one is my favorite so far. Very accessible.
"Sound Financial Advice"
This book is mainly geared for 20 - 35 age range. Ramit has an exuberant personality and got me excited about doing finances the right way. The book is filled with excellent real world examples and methods for controlling finances. I was skeptical about using a credit on this book at first because of the corny title. I'm really glad I did. I'm actively using at least 75% of techniques described in this book.
When you are ready to seriously start thinking about finances.. listen to this book first.
"Behavioral approach to money sets this book apart"
I LOVE Ramit Sethi. His style is irreverent and occasionally obnoxious but hysterically funny and deeply influential. Ramit's emphasis on behavior and his back ground in psychology is what sets this book apart from the average personal finance book. I was convinced that this was one of the best books out there by the 4th chapter but the last chapter "A Rich Life" blew my mind. More than just money management strategies this chapter dealt with the real value of money, what it takes for you to feel rich, how to handle money issues in relationship, and negotiation strategies for anything from buying a car to getting a raise. I would recommend buying the text version as well if you like what you hear but you can get the bulk of the message with the audio version.
"Funny and informative."
Yes the advise is very basic if you already have personal finance acumen, the book is aimed at the younger crowd and provides some good foundational advise and background on asset classes and the diffence between diversification and asset allocation. Ramit is a vibrant reader and keeps you interested right the way through.
"This book changed my life"
i purchased the paper book 6 months ago and it completely changed my financial life, i also purchased this audio book about a week ago and it was great listening to Ramit read his own book i also listen to chapters frequently when i need inspiration or a refresh. his blog by the same name is also a daily read now too
Great work Ramit
"Inspired Me to Overhaul My Personal Finances"
I got this book on a whim (even though the title made it seem kind of dumb) and I'm glad I did. It's the first book I'd ever read on personal finance and Ramit's good advice and fun approach motivated me to make some serious financial changes. Now I'm tracking my finances, I started high-interest online checkings and savings accounts, I got a credit card, and I'm going to be opening a Roth IRA. I didn't agree completely with everything he said (I kind of balked at his advice about salary negotiation and I ended up picking a different bank for my savings account than the one he recommended), but his personal finance strategies are great and it was fun to listen to him.
There are no listener reviews for this title yet.

Hendricks County Flyer
---- — PLAINFIELD — Climbing and hanging from utility poles is all in a day's work for Duke Energy lineman.
On Saturday, the people that make sure area residents have power were able to showcase their skills at the 2013 Lineworkers Rodeo at the Duke Energy Regional Headquarters, 1000 E. Main St., Plainfield.
The 20th annual rodeo took place from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and featured four timed contests.
Sally Thelen, Duke Energy event spokesperson, said the rodeo features lineman from Indiana, Ohio, and Kentucky competing.
Thelen said was on the most interesting competitions is the pole climb, in which a lineman has to climb a pole with a basket containing an egg in their mouth.
"They take the basket in their mouth, put it on the pole and take the egg out, put the egg in their mouth, make their way down, all while being timed and all being done in a safe manner," she said. "It's to show how smooth they do it."
Another event is called the hurt man rescue.
"There's a 175 pound life-like dummy (stuck on a pole)," Thelen said. "That is to simulate a lineman that's been injured on the job or, frankly, in some cases, we're rescuing members of the public that maybe don't have the best intentions. (They could be) trying to steal copper or doing other things. Either way, we have to get them off the pole."
The two other contests are a transformer repair and reinstall and fixing an overhead power line.
In addition to the contests, Thelen said the event had things children would enjoy as well.
"To make it fun for kids, we have face painting, there's bounce houses, and there's an amateur pole climb that the kids and family can try on the gear and climb a few steps up a little pole," she said. "There's a dunk tank where the executives are over there from Duke. It's a fundraiser for United Way."
She added people could also take rides on bucket trucks and operate a crane.
Thelen said the purpose of the event is to give Duke workers a chance to have some fun and to show family and friends what their job entails.
"It's great for camaraderie. For our crews, this is what they do day-in and day-out, replacing or fixing the power system and making sure everybody's lights stay on," she said. "This is a great way to build camaraderie and sportsmanship. A lot of these people don't get to work together because they're in different locations for the company. Obviously, Indiana is very spread out. It's just a great time to bring family, friends, and show them what they're job is every day."
She said the top finishers of the contest will also compete at an international level.
"The top performers here will go on to compete in Kansas City in October," she said. "That's against all utilities from all over the country. We do have a lot of people that qualify for that, that do very well."

Hilokos by Jesse Robert - over 1 year ago
"This photo was taken on September 8, 2012 on Big Island, Hawaii. This shirt was for a small organization here in Hilo -- Kosrae-Hilo Organzaiton. Where we came from, we always celebrate this date, September 8, which was the date that our ancestors was freed by the United States of America from the hands of the Japanese during World War 2. Months before September, I had an idea of printing one of my sketches on a shirt. I went online to search online shirt designers and I came across CustomInk. I placed my order and I even called them up to follow-up on it and with their wonderful service, I was able to decide on how I want my shirt to come out. I received my order earlier than I expected and I was happy with the shirts. Thanks to CustomInk and I am looking forward to print another shirt. Mahalo. "

It's not something you see every day - the famous Budweiser Clydesdales made some stops in Forest Park Thursday.
One Springfield man won a contest being held at Forest Park Liquors. He won a case of Budweiser hand delivered by the drivers of the Budweiser Clydesdales.
The team started out at Forest Park Liquors, then took to Sumner Avenue before getting to the man's home nearby.
Each year, more than 1 million people see the horses, and the winner of the contest said it's a visit he'll never forget.
"This is memories for a lifetime right here, bringing the neighborhood together, it's extra special," said the contest winner, Santino Bruno.
The Clydesdales will also be at the Big E for the next 2 1/2 weeks.

Is blow job (oral sex) a natural thing? Because normally except human beings, none of the animals on the planet have been captured doing that. Is it just erotic by this porn world?
I've only just turned 14. Am I too young to think I might be gay? Or is it just hormones playing with my emotions? If I am really gay, is it bad or stupid cause I'm so young?
I come here quite often to browse and get information I need, and now I need some advice.
Since I was 13 and started dating and getting more intimate I decided I didn't want to go down on a guy. I had quite a few reasons for it and on top of it I just found it abnormal. Well now I'm 15 and have been in a relationship for quite some time now. Me and my boyfriend talk about sex openly, what each of us are ready and not ready for, and this really does work. He knows my stand point on the no going down thing, though he has done that for me. I know he doesn't expect it back, but he does say that he really wants to. And I find myself compelled to at some points. Does this mean I'm a hypocrite, turning my back on what I've believed? Every time we bring it up I always tell him I'm paranoid, I have researched what you can get from doing something like that. I just don't know, can you help me?

A Colorado woman was impaled by a light pole after she crashed because she was texting and driving.
Written by David Whisenant
MOORESVILLE, NC (WBTV) - Thieves made a fast getaway after taking three NASCAR racing engines from a well-known race shop in Mooresville.
Police say someone broke into the Roush/Yates engine shop and got away with three of the big Ford engines used by the team in the Nationwide and Truck Series.
If the thieves are thinking of dropping one of these engines under the hood, they better think again.
They are 358 cubic inch Ford racing engines known for putting out lots of horsepower. The engines are worth $50,000 each.
"These are not everyday engines, these are NASCAR specific engines, you can't put them in a car, plus they are Roush Yates engines, very specific," said Mooresville Police Lt. Joseph Cooke.
The engines were taken sometime Monday night from the shop off Mazeppa Road.
One of the workers said he knew it was going to be a bad day when he came to work and saw a big hole in the wall.
The hole is big enough for thieves to get inside, then open the door.
Each of the engines weigh more than 500 pounds. They're kept on rollers and that made it easy for thieves to roll them into a cargo van they happened to steal from another race team.
"They stole a Penske rental truck, like a cargo van and used the cargo van to load up the engines and take the engines away."
The thieves dumped the van, but made off with the engines. Unless they are in the racing business, they may find them tough to unload.
"Those are specialty items you'd have to be in NASCAR or the racing business to use them, you can't just put these engines in your car."
In a town where even the police cars resemble checkered flags, Roush Yates will be hoping for some swift justice.
If you can help Mooresville Police, call them at 704-664-3311, or South Iredell Crime Stoppers at 704-658-9056. If your information leads to an arrest, you be eligible for a reward.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Authorities have arrested a woman who allegedly is seen molesting a girl in decade-old child porn photos made in Los Angeles.
Fifty-two-year-old Letha Mae Montemayor was arrested Thursday night in the San Fernando Valley, a day after U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials announced they were looking for a man and woman who appeared to be molesting a 13-year-old girl in the widely circulated photos.
Authorities say the shots appeared to have been made in the San Fernando Valley about 11 years ago. Both adults have been charged with producing child pornography.
Federal authorities say Montemayor matches the description of the woman, who had distinctive tattoos including a butterfly on her hip and a curled-up cat on her shoulder.
The man remains at large.

Newport Centre pool sickness outbreak spreads (From South Wales Argus)

Newport Centre pool sickness outbreak spreads
9:20am Thursday 13th September 2012 in News
THE outbreak of a vomiting bug that closed Newport Centre pool may be more widespread than health officials first thought.
The pool was closed last Thursday, after seven out of 14 people in Gwent who contracted cryptosporidiosis – which can cause watery diarrhoea, stomach pain, nausea or vomiting, and fever – since mid-August, were found to have used the pool.
The results of water samples confirmed the presence of the bug cryptosporidium at the pool and the outbreak was made public on Tuesday.
Newport council originally stated the pool was closed for "essential maintenance" a week before the outbreak was revealed.
But it said it had no evidence of the bug at this time and closed the pool as a precaution.
Since our story yesterday four people who have either not been to their GP or been tested for cryptosporidiosis have since contacted the Argus concerned at having fallen ill after using the pool.
Rob Wigmore, of Newport, went to the pool on Saturday, September 1 and started getting what he described as "cold sweats" soon afterwards.
He too has not sought help from his GP, but said: "It developed into much worse than a stomach bug and I've lost about half a stone.
"At one stage the sentences were getting disjointed when I spoke and the fever has felt very different."
Ian Thomas, from St Julians, Newport, is only just recovering from more than two weeks of intermittent sickness and diarrhoea.
He is an occasional user of the pool and last went there in mid-August, falling ill a few days later.
"It's been very unpleasant but I just thought it was something nasty I could have picked up from anywhere.
But reading about the symptoms, they are a perfect fit," he said.
Another woman swimmer from Newport has lost almost a stone in weight in less than two weeks and is asking her GP to be tested for the disease.
She fell ill five days after a swimming party at the pool for her son's birthday on August 26, and had been off work from her café job after being what she described as "violently ill".
"I can't shake it. One day I feel like I'm getting better, then it comes back and I can't keep anything down," she said.
A fourth pool user, also from Newport, said: "I've had a stomach bug for two weeks.
"The symptoms came on quick and are the same as for this bug," he said.
Deep clean before reopening
A NEWPORT council spokeswoman said when the pool was closed on September 6 there was no definite link between the bug and the pool.
She added: "As soon as it was confirmed there was a presence of cryptosporidium in the water we immediately communicated this finding. To have done so before would have been premature without the full facts." She said the pool will now be drained and deep cleaned and would only reopen when the council was 100 per cent confident that no-one is at risk.
A spokeswoman for Public Health Wales said the matter was not made public earlier until all cases were confirmed and a potential link between them was found.
She said more people may have been affected but it was currently only treating the situation as an outbreak involving 14 confirmed cases.
Anyone with concerns about their health, particularly in light of the cryptosporidiosis outbreak, should contact their GP or NHS Direct Wales on 0845 46 47.
COMMENT: Better to be open earlier
THE closure of the Newport Centre swimming pool following an outbreak of a sickness bug is, of course, entirely the right course of action by the city council.
We have a concern, however, over the timings of the pool closure and the announcement that the cryptosporidiosis bug had been discovered in water samples.
The pool was closed last Thursday. At the time, the council posted a message on Twitter saying the closure was for 'essential maintenance'.
On Tuesday came the news the real reason for the closure was the bug outbreak.
We do not suggest there was anything untoward in this, nor do we advocate causing unnecessary concern or panic among pool users. But we think it would have been better to have explained to the public the reason for the closure at the earliest opportunity, even if the link between the sickness outbreak and the pool was as yet unproven.
The question now is how long will the pool be closed and, more importantly, how many people have been made ill by swimming there.
Public Health Wales said initially that seven of the 14 cases were linked to the pool, though a further four people have contacted this newspaper since we reported the closure.
There is every chance more people have had the bug but not linked it to swimming at the pool and not gone to their GP.

If this pool is being run by a private company for Newport Council we should get a statement from the Councils Environmental Health Dept about their monitoring regime of the pools disinfection procedures. Frequently in some pools these 2 hour checks are done by young pool attendants that are not monitored. Is this the case at this pool? If the Council runs the Centre directly the HSE need to step in to monitor that it is being done correctly.
The Centre should also be routinely checked for legionella.
This is not the case at the newport centre. there is a highly competent team monitoring the pool and it's water quality. This team is managed by a very competent and conscientious manager who takes the work very seriously. don't you think that the fact that there has been no question of the hse stepping in speaks volumes for the procedures and policies in place at the facility already. There is yet to be a completely infallible method of eradicating human pathogens from any public space and i doubt very much there ever will be. I believe the leisure centre has done, and will continue to do, everything in its power to serve the best interests of the public who are at the end of the day their customers. You can't just invent wild theories on how staff at the pool may possibly be to blame, there is no scandal here just a terribly unfortunate case of people falling ill because of an individual or individuals who used the pool's facilities when they were unwell. That is the lesson that needs to be learnt from this, pool users need to stop ignoring the signs which tell them to shower before entering the pool, (thus greatly reducing the number of pathogens they might introduce to the water), they should definitely wash their hands after visiting toilets and should certainly not use the facilities when they are unwell, after all it wasn't a member of staff who introduced these germs which made everyone ill it was a member of the public.

"But we think it would have been better to have explained to the public the reason for the closure at the earliest opportunity, even if the link between the sickness outbreak and the pool was as yet unproven."
If the link between the outbreak and the pool was unproven then surely there was nothing to inform anyone of? what should they have said 'dear public some people have fallen ill - we have no idea whether its got anything to do with us but hey what the hell we're going to tell you that's the reason our pool is shut' I don't think anyone in their right mind is stupid enough to sit on the information that their workplace is at the centre of an outbreak and tell people its shut for maintenance i think it was just a very unfortunate coincidence that they shut the pool for maintenance and then got told of the link. it was unfortunate for them because it does look bad but rather lucky for anyone who was thinking of using the pool before there was a proven link to the outbreak, it may have prevented a few more cases of the illness

conducted by environmental health showed the presence of this debilitating bug why did the staff tests not show it? My daughter has been unable to work for almost 3 weeks and my grand daughter was not allowed to go to childcare.
Im just thankful my 10 month grand daughter did not contract this vile bug!

3 weeks on and they are still testing positive for this bug. As i said previously the pool is not the primary source but maybe this test should now be made regularly and this bug will show as it is spread via water and air,

For me, the biggest question surrounding Pirates of the Caribbean 5 was, "wait, aren't they on like number four or seven or nine?"
For others, presumably, it was the title. Director Gore Verbinski gave way to Rob Marshall after the third installment, who has in turn given way to Norwegian directors Joachim Rønning and Espen Sandberg of Kon-Tiki, for the fifth installment, scheduled for 2015. This week, fresh off a run-in with a møøse that bit my sister, Rønning and Sandberg told ThisIsInfamous that the title of the fifth film will be…
Dead Man's Wank? 20,000 Fatigues Under the Sea? The Seven Seas of Snooze? All A-Bored? Davey Jone's Paycheck? The Curse of the Hack Producer? Treasure Whyland? Blackbeard's Shart? The Quest for Apathy? Johnny Depp's Yacht? One Long Reaction Shot? Yo Ho Yo Ho Oh God Why Are We Still Making These?
Say goodbye to PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN 5…
And hello to PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: DEAD MEN TELL NO TALES.
Damn, I was so close. Oh well, as long as Johnny Depp hands the reins of the franchise to Taylor Lautner I'll be happy.
I want more like this!

Town Square
Freeway express-lane project speeds ahead

So stupid! Might as well call them lower, middle and upper class lanes. When I was in San Diego a few months ago during late afternoon rush hour, I only saw one car in front of me and in the rear view on a long straight away. Didn't seem like very many commuters were using the toll lane. What a waste of freeway space.
By 2035, I'm really hoping to have a hydrogen car that can fly over really slow cars in the left lane, safely run stop lights and signs and be wherever I want to be in 10 minutes with no speeding tickets.

When I was in the library a few months ago on a Saturday morning, I only saw one person in the reference section where I was sitting and one in the foreign languages section on the other side of the floor. Didn't seem like many residents were using the library. What a waste of space and public $$.
Wish they could just do away with it and put in a parking lot for hydrogen-powered cars driven by sarcastic drivers like me...

Airtight Case - Thanks for the laugh. Reading the news can be depressing, and it is nice to actually laugh once in a while. Point taken!

Excellent purchase Review by Rachel777
Overall Rating
Thank you very much, Buddha Groove. I am 100% satisfied with this purchase. First the customer service is very good. I first saw the image of this statue from my friend's Facebook photos. When I looked for it online, it was not displayed on the website, I emailed the customer service and I got a reply mail with a link attached within half an hour. It was shipped within two days with free shipping. I have been looking for a Buddha statue with combination of these two mudras, right hand showing Abhaya mudra (fear-not gesture) and left hand showing Varada mudra (wish-granting gesture). This statue is exactly what I am looking for in terms of size and mudras. The top quality material and the superb craftsmanship are the bonuses. The half-closed eyes, the serene look of the face and the fully-clothed body are the best for me as a Burmese Buddhist.

The 10/40 Window identifies a section of the world map encompassing North Africa, the Middle East and Asia. It extends from latitude 10°N to 40°N of the equator.
In and around this rectangular area lives the world's least evangelized, most unreached people groups in terms of Christian missions. The countries in the 10/40 window are either officially closed or informally opposed to Christian ministry within their borders. Citizens have limited knowledge of the gospel, minimal access to Bibles and Christian materials, and extremely restricted opportunities to respond to and follow the Christian faith.
Although the 10/40 Window represents only a third of all global land areas, it is home to almost two-thirds of the world's population. This densely populated region contains the majority of the world's Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists and non-religious peoples, and the fewest number of Christ followers and Christian workers.
In addition, the highest concentration of people living in poverty—"the poorest of the poor"— reside within the 10/40 Window.
According to Window International Network, nearly all of the worst countries in the world known for persecution of Christians are positioned in the 10/40 Window. Likewise, child abuse, child prostitution, slavery, and pedophilia are widespread there. And most of the terrorist organizations in the world are headquartered there, too.

I think I bought everything that wasn't sold out! To the girl asking about the Kitten for Asian faces ... it looks good on Asian faces. I tried some of my friend's kitten (who is also Asian) and received compliments on my makeup so I decided to get some for myself (just yesterday, but luckily for me the makeup counter was closed so I can buy all my Stila from the warehouse sale which I just found out about today).

Wow looks like they actually raised the price on some of the vintage items from the actual warehouse sale I went to back in July. The lip glaze + perfume set was actually $3 not $6 and that shimmer fantasy all over shimmer set was $10 not $24! Looks like they are just trying to get rid of their leftovers from that sale... :( The ACTUAL warehouse sales are much much better except you'll have to get there early like 6am early and withstand the huge mobs of women haha.

ICaps Eye Vitamin & Mineral Supplement Tablets4.8 6.0
Buy 1, Get 1 50% OFF
Select qualifying item
Size/Count 120.0 coated tablets
- Promotes healthy eyes
- With zinc acetate for greater absorption
- Unique delayed-release formula
Receiving Options
A specialized, comprehensive formula of carotenoids, antioxidants, and minerals important to vision. Lutein and zeaxanthin are natural carotenoids that have been shown through structural and clinical studies to be concentrated in the macular segment of the retina. These carotenoids are not produced by the human body, and their accumulation in the eye is dependent on dietary intake. Studies suggest a relationship between those carotenoids and the maintenance of a normal healthy macula and clarity of the lens of the eye.** Zinc is an important mineral found in high concentration in healthy eyes. Zinc acetate has been proven to be the form of zinc with greatest absorption by the body.***
The only major ocular antioxidant supplement that has a delayed-release formula. This unique delayed-release formula allows the ingredients to dissolve gradually, thereby contributing to greater absorption by the body.
- Promotes healthy eyes*
- High quality ingredients
- Safe and effective

Archived:Serial communication over USB on S60 3rd Edition devices
Archived: This article is archived because it is not considered relevant for third-party developers creating commercial solutions today. If you think this article is still relevant, let us know by adding the template {{ReviewForRemovalFromArchive|user=~~~~|write your reason here}}.
S60 3rd Edition, FP1
S60 3rd Edition FP1
S60 3rd Edition (initial release)
Serial communication over USB on S60 3rd Edition devices.
The RComm API can be used to transfer data over USB serial connection. On S60 3rd Edition, loading of physical (PDD) and logical (LDD) device drivers is not required. Only the CSY module ECACM should be loaded.
The port name available for USB communication is usually "ACM::1". Some devices may support multiple ACM ports. The first port (ACM::0) is reserved for fax/modem process, but ACM::1 and onwards can be used in other applications.
A simplified example for initializing the serial port:
_LIT(KACMPort1, "ACM::1");
// RComm is a client to the RCommServ Comms server
// Start this service before any connections are made.
TInt ret = StartC32();
if ( ret != KErrNone && ret != KErrAlreadyExists )
User::Leave ( ret );
// Connect to CommServer
RCommServ server;
User::LeaveIfError( server.Connect() );
// Load CSY Module
User::LeaveIfError( server.LoadCommModule( CSYMOD ) );
TBuf16<KMaxPortName> portName;
portName.Copy( KACMPort1 );
// Open the comm. port
RComm commPort;
User::LeaveIfError( commPort.Open( server, portName, ECommShared ) );
// Verify capabilities of the port and configure it
TCommCaps portCaps;
commPort.Caps( portCaps );
if (((portCaps().iRate & KCapsBps115200) == 0) |
((portCaps().iDataBits & KCapsData8) == 0) |
((portCaps().iStopBits & KCapsStop1) == 0) |
((portCaps().iParity & KCapsParityNone) == 0))
User::Leave( KErrNotSupported );
TCommConfig portCfg;
commPort.Config( portCfg );
portCfg().iRate = EBps115200;
portCfg().iParity = EParityNone;
portCfg().iDataBits = EData8;
portCfg().iStopBits = EStop1;
portCfg().iHandshake = 0;
User::LeaveIfError( commPort.SetConfig( portCfg ) );
After this you can read from and write to the port. An application listening to the port should be running on the host (PC).

Birging and Corfing
Birging and corfing are perhaps two terms you've never heard of, let alone used! I can assure you however, that although you believe you've done neither, if you possess even a passing interest in sport you most certainly have! And it is about this time of the year, when push comes to shove that you do it all the more! Birging is in fact 'basking in reflected glory' whilst corfing (cutting off reflected failure) is at the opposite, glass half empty end of the scale. Oh I get it I hear you chorus… not! Well as Monday dawns and you pore over and ponder the results from the weekend, Wallabies, Hockeyroos, local league or rugby union, cricket, kissball, US Open whatever, you are setting the scene for a week of either corfing or birging. Alas for many your team (or worse still your teams) has been vanquished – if you are a Ballina/Wallabies rugby union fan for example, you probably won't entertain the prospect of even perhaps, maybe, thinking about the code much less actually discussing it! It'll be the same for the Swan or Warrior followers among you – the 'nah didn't watch it' or 'haven't had that poster up for ages' defence. You will attempt to divorce yourself from the defeat and treat your support as a temporary thing. If, on the other hand your team or teams were lucky enough to triumph then you start birging like a pro. It's your team and you zero in on each and every opportunity for discussion. Life is greeaaat and you want nothing more than a chat about the game, the intricacies of the tactics and what a superb bloke the ref is! If you're a Lennox/All Blacks fan (and still sober) you are rolling in clover up in heaven among the clouds with silver linings. So as you embark on your working week spare a thought for those around you and remember the words of Rudyard Kipling:
"If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same…
Yours is the earth and everything that's in it."

A judge has rejected several motions to dismiss charges against a man charged with murder in a killing outside a Dunwoody preschool.
DeKalb County Superior Court Judge Gregory Adams on Tuesday rejected arguments by defense attorneys for Hemy Neuman, who argued he was improperly indicted on murder charges. Prosecutors said the defense was grasping at straws.
Neuman is charged with the November 2010 shooting death of Russell Sneiderman, who was killed minutes after he dropped off his 2-year-old son at the preschool. He has pleaded not guilty, and a judge has set his trial date for Oct. 17.
A second motions hearing in the case is slated for Aug. 15 at 9 a.m. Prosecutors are expected to present their evidence in the case for the first time during the hearings.

This year's Fight Hunger Bowl between BYU and Washington will have an added significance, as it will be the first major college football game with multiple female referees on the officiating crew:
At the @FightHungerBowl committee meeting. History will be made. Two female officials working our bowl game this year.
— Mike Pereira (@MikePereira) December 13, 2013
The first time multiple women were on an NCAA officiating crew was in 2010, in a game between Menlo College and Whitworth University.
In October, four women formed the majority of the officiating crew for a Division II contest between Miles and Lane. Yvonda Lewis, Tangela Mitchell, Sabrina Brunson and Krystle Apellaniz all rose through the NFL Officiating Development Program, but it is uncertain at the moment who the women on the crew will be for this game.
Sarah Thomas is perhaps the most widely known female referee, as she was the first woman to officiate a major college football game or a bowl game. Thomas is currently a finalist to become a permanent NFL official, which would make her the first woman to hold such a position.

On one of the nights of going out and having fun with awesome people while hopping from place to place in town, there was this one particular place that I have not fully blogged about, it was Tao Padungan. I was with Hong, waiting and killing an hour over before meeting up with other cool people at Bing, another coffee place not too far away. Tao is a very cool coffee place, newly opened, and has gained popularity in such short time. Since it was just the two of us, and that night the place was not crowded, it was just the right time to take out my camera and have good snaps of the entire place, without too many eyes staring at me with that one kind weird look, as if I was an alien from Krypton or something. Geeeez, people, can't anyone take pictures with peace nowadays? Thank God I was just using a compact camera, having a D-SLR would just have more eyes popped open wide.
Tao serves an array of beverages ranging from hot to cold, fresh juices and nice blends of all other weird never seen before drinks. They have really expensive food in their menu, and most of them are extremely over-priced. This is Kuching, having something more than RM5 on a plate is considered over-priced, yeah, go figure. Atmosphere wise, the place is extremely unconventional. Though having the usual dim lighting and comfy furnishings in the sitting/dining area, what gives the place an extra edge is the entire Buddhism themed decor surrounding the whole room. Just looked at every corner, your eyes cant miss any decor suggesting Buddhism, statues, Buddha heads, coils.. paintings... anything, anywhere !!! I do not know what the motive of the interior design is, maybe to provide peace and calm to the patrons, but heck, I felt a little out of place sitting there for a while. But hey, one can just complain less and enjoy the rest of the evening, right? The place may be weird, but it was certainly unique in its own way.
Pictures of the place...
Hong had not had dinner, so he ordered a plate of Spaghetti Bolognese. My goodness, it came in such a small portion that even cannot satisfy a hungry kitten. What is with Kuching and serving food in very stingy portions.. I know Kuching is a place with all the good food, but everything comes in rather limited servings, and I never really filled my stomachs with them. Ok, maybe somethings wrong with my stomach, but heck, for Tao, and their overpriced food, does it hurt to have larger portion?
Me and my favourite Flat White. Would have gone for Latte, but Flat white is far rarer in Kuching, and I havent had one since my days in Perth. It was good, with the right strength of coffee in it. I added a lot of sugar, like usual; to blend in the aroma of caffeine. Sweetness and bitterness come together just nice.
It was a Friday night, a freakin Friday night, what was I doing at Tao? We went over to Bing later meeting other friends, and what were we doing there???

JONNY Lomax has traded one iconic Saints shirt for another in 2014 after being handed Paul Wellens' number one jersey. Star sports editor Mike Critchley caught up with the young Billinger, ahead of him agreeing his new four-year contract at Saints, and got his insight on what it's like to follow in the footsteps of such a long-serving custodian…
MC: It is the second year out of the last three that you have been handed an iconic Saints jersey. How do you feel about that and succeeding Paul Wellens at full back?
JL: Mixed emotions really, to be honest. To have the faith put in me to take over the number one shirt from the legend that is Paul Wellens is great. But by the same token, it is strange because I always looked up to Paul Wellens when I was growing up. For him to give me his blessing and make that public is massive for me, and we are still friends. But that is the kind of guy he is. For him to do that in person and put it out there shows that he is putting faith in me, and that is a great feeling.
MC: Does it help that Wello is still around?
JL: Definitely – he has played here that many years and can give me pointers on things that he thinks might help me. One of the biggest things when I first moved there was that I used to run around a lot and generally could not do all that running. He taught me a few ways where I can save energy here and there, and they are things that can make a difference. Again, it's great to have him there – a figurehead on and off the pitch.
MC: What sort of distances does a modern full back cover on a match day?
JL: It is 100 metres a set back and forward, so you are looking at running 10k in a typical game the way that it is played now, especially with having to go side to side a lot. I am enjoying it at full back, and there is a lot more freedom to express yourself.
MC: You appeared to get a knock towards the end of last season. Is that why you didn't appear for the England Knights?
JL: It was actually against Hull KR in the play-offs and I got squashed – it was almost a bit of a crusher tackle. Thankfully the hamstring stood up, but I pulled my abductor off the bone and had pretty bad nerve damage in it. The week before the Leeds game it was scanned and was not good, so it was a case of trying to get through it. If we had won it would have been the same for the semi – it was not too great. The abductor healed back up, so touch wood that is sorted now.
MC: None of us (who write) meant to be disparaging about your ability to play seven and the way you were still learning that role, but number one does suit you better doesn't it?
JL: Yes, I think it gives me more freedom. When you play half back you have to think about the next play and the one after that. As much as you want to play what is in front of you, sometimes you have to think it's a 60/40 play that might come off but think about the next play and field position. Playing one gives you the freedom to run around and play what you see, off the cuff, a bit more and try things. Sometimes playing in the halves you have to play a bit more structured and patient with it. At full back you can see things that are on and go for it.
MC: How important is Luke Walsh's addition to the team generally, and to your game specifically?
JL: Walshy has settled in really well in pre-season and has looked like he has been here all the time. It is not like a new bloke – he is getting us around the field really well in training and things are looking good. That can only benefit the team and me personally. He is quite bossy, but he does not scream and shout. If you don't do it he just tells you again. And if you don't do what he wants you aren't going to play, so you need to listen to him.
MC: Potentially it is a very young, fast back three going into this year isn't it?
JL: Yes, we are all of a similar age, are quite excited to be involved and, potentially, if things go well and
people carry on improving we could be there as a back three for the
foreseeable future. Tommy and Swifty are both rapid wingers, enjoy the hard work as well and can both finish.
MC: The team has a pack that can put the fear of god into the opposition. That is going to lay a great platform isn't it?
JL: There is a lot of depth in it too – it is not just that it is big, it is athletic too, with a lot of speed and skill in it. The way the young lads came in last year due to injury means we can count on them too. That has added depth.
MC: After five years of winning nothing, there appears to be a buzz around that this team could do something this year. Would you agree?
JL: Definitely. I think we showed at the back end of last year that we were a good team. It was just that we had a lot of injuries to key personnel. Every time we looked like we were getting going something would happen. To win things you need to be a good team, but you also need that bit of luck and that bounce of the ball.
But we had bad luck with injuries, didn't get much in the way of the bounce of the ball and not many decisions went our way. We have all improved as players this off-season, and the signings will improve the team too. We just need that bit of luck and to stay injury free.

Dates for the first round WHL Playoff series between the Spokane Chiefs and Tri-City Americans have been finalized and will begin in Spokane with games one and two on Friday, March 22nd and Saturday, March 23rd. Games three, four and, if necessary, five will be played in Tri-City with Spokane hosting a potential game six.
The location of game seven will be determined by who finishes in fourth place in the Western Conference at the end of the regular season. Spokane currently leads Tri-CIty for the fourth spot by two points, 86-84.
"Due to the city and Spokane Arena hosting the Women's NCAA basketball tournament our availability for dates was limited," Chiefs General Manager Tim Speltz said.
"Due to the situation of Spokane's building availability, we were forced to become creative in finding solutions that met the needs of both teams," Tri-City General Manager Bob Tory said.
"With limited dates and the cooperation of Tim Speltz and the Chiefs, we were able to come up with a solution that works well for both franchises considering the circumstances," Tory finished.
"We appreciate the American's cooperation and flexibility in scheduling the dates to give us the opportunity to play in our building when we have it available to us," Speltz said.
"The NCAA Tournaments are fantastic events for our Arena and the city of Spokane. The Chiefs, the Spokane Arena and our fans thank Bob Tory and his organization for being a good league partner," Speltz said.
If the two teams remain equal in points then wins would determine the higher seed. Spokane leads Tri-City by two wins, 42-40.
Individual tickets for the first two games of the series will go on sale at the Chiefs office and all TicketsWest outlets on Thursday, March 14th at 9:00 a.m.
Of the three games left in the regular season, two will be played against each other in a home-and-home series this weekend beginning on Friday night in the Spokane Arena and finishing on Saturday in Kennewick. Both games will begin at 7:00 with Saturday's game being televised live on SWX. All the remaining regular season games will be heard live on SportsRadio 1510 KGA, Everything Sports.

Grayson Perry and David Cameron donate artworks for secret auction in aid of Eastbourne hospice
4:40am Tuesday 4th February 2014 in News By Siobhan Ryan, Health reporter
Eccentric artist Grayson Perry and Prime Minister David Cameron are among a host of famous names to throw their support behind a Sussex charity.
They are joined by TV presenters Graham Norton, David Dimbleby and Andrew Marr for the Secret Art Auction in aid of St Wilfrid's Hospice in Eastbourne.
They have created an anonymous piece of art-work which will be sold to boost funds for the hospice and the Towner art museum in Eastbourne.
Others taking part include contemporary artist Sue Campion, Glyndebourne artist in residence Julian Sutherland-Beatson, Saatchi winner Barry Wilson and professional painter and workshop tutor Elda Abramson.
The postcard-sized artworks will be exhibited anonymously in the Towner and available to buy on eBay from just 99p.
As well as submissions from celebrities and artists, the auction will feature work by staff, hospice patients and people in the local community.
Hospice chief executive Kara Bishop said: "This is an opportunity for anyone, not just art collectors, to support our charity and gain substantially from it, be it in terms of owning a valuable piece of artwork or from the enjoyment we can all get from a piece of art that truly strikes us as beautiful or moving.
"The auction will appeal to art collectors and complete newcomers to the art world, but the beauty is, with artists from household names to hospice patients, nobody will really know which ones are by a famous artist until after the auction has finished."
Throughout the exhibition, each piece will have a QR code that will take the bidder straight to the piece on eBay, which will show the latest bid as well as an invitation to bid.
This is the second time St Wilfrid's has run the event, with famous artists Tracey Emin and David Hockney taking part in last year's auction and helping to raise £50,000.
Towner chief executive Emma Morris said: "What I really like about this fundraising auction is that it's completely anonymous right until the end, so you could end up buying a Grayson Perry piece for pennies - such a fantastic idea!
"Central to Towner's mission is developing, supporting and celebrating local artistic practice, which this exhibition does - and more."
The profits from the auction will be split, with 80% going to St Wilfrid's and 20% to the Towner Charitable Trust.
The exhibition will be held at Towner from March 8 - 23.
The eBay auction, will be active from March 14-23.

PREPARATIONView Step-by-Step Directions
Arrange racks in lower and upper thirds of oven; preheat to 350°. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Whisk flour, ground ginger, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Using an electric mixer on medium-high speed, beat brown sugar, shortening, and butter in a large bowl, scraping down sides halfway through beating, until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Reduce mixer speed to low. Add egg, molasses, grated ginger, and vanilla; beat just to blend. Add flour mixture; beat on low speed just to blend. Mix in crystallized ginger (dough will be very soft and sticky).
Place raw sugar in a shallow bowl. Using a tablespoon measure, scoop out dough. Using a second spoon, scoop dough from tablespoon measure into bowl with raw sugar; turn to coat well. Roll into ball. Transfer to prepared baking sheet. Repeat with half of remaining dough and sugar, spacing balls 1 1/2" apart.
Bake cookies, rotating sheets halfway through, until edges are firm and centers appear cracked, 10–12 minutes. Transfer cookies to wire racks and let cool. Repeat with remaining dough and sugar, using cooled baking sheets and new parchment. DO AHEAD: Can be made 3 days ahead. Store airtight at room temperature between sheets of parchment or waxed paper.
